Yunzhou City, Duhufu.
Before this, the woman in white had never been to the Protector's Mansion, and she seemed to be deliberately keeping a distance from Lin Ye.
Lin Ye could not see clearly who she was because he was a fan of the authorities, but Xie Yunxi could see clearly.
Xie Yunxi just didn't want to ask, because once she asked some questions, she would have to face the past that she had deliberately forgotten.
But now, when the woman in white appeared in front of Xie Yunxi, she knew that what she chose to forget would eventually be revealed again.
"Your Highness the Princess."
The woman in white bowed towards Xie Yunxi and saluted.
Xie Yunxi didn't seem to expect that she would be like this. After a moment, Xie Yunxi returned an identical gift.
The woman in white said, "Actually, it doesn't have to be like this."
Xie Yunxi said nothing.
The woman in white said: "I just want to tell you that Lin Ye is a little unstable right now and he needs you."
Xie Yunxi's heart moved.
She looked at the woman in white: "Why do you think he needs me? What he needs is obviously the truth."
The woman in white said: "The truth is what he always believed, and it was also the truth that he had to bear when he left Wuwei County. It has never changed."
Xie Yunxi: "Is it really true, or does it have to be?"
The woman in white looked into Xie Yunxi's eyes and didn't answer the question, just looked at it.
Xie Yunxi said: "You all know that he works hard enough and always shows that he does not disappoint, but you don't care what he wants."
The woman in white said, "I thought you were not a hypocritical person."
Xie Yunxi: "I never show off, but I also never compromise."
The woman in white was silent.
After a while, she said to Xie Yunxi: "The reason why Lin Ye is Lin Ye, whether you or him, you will always feel that someone else chose him."
She shook her head: "But he has always chosen to take revenge."
Xie Yunxi asked: "Is it really his revenge that you want to see?"
The woman in white said, "He carried it on his own, not what we wanted to see."
Xie Yunxi looked directly into the eyes of the woman in white: "Who is he and why does he have to bear all this?"
The woman in white replied: "I said, what he chose to carry is the truth."
Xie Yunxi asked again: "Then he is the biological flesh and blood of General Liu Jigong? Then why was he sent to be raised elsewhere at a young age?"
The woman in white also looked into Xie Yunxi's eyes: "More than one person has told me that there are few women in this world who are smarter than you."
Xie Yunxi took a step forward: "So?"
The woman in white also took a step towards Xie Yunxi, and the two of them were close at hand.
She said: "You have been Tuoba Lie's sister for more than ten years. You don't even know that Tuoba Lie has hidden a son. But you should know that even Tuoba Lie has to hide a son. Why can't General Liu Jigong?" ?」
Xie Yunxi frowned.
After a while, she asked angrily: "Why are you still lying now?"
The woman in white said: "No one is lying, but there are some things I haven't told him yet. I can only say that once he knows the final plan, the plan will lose its meaning."
Xie Yunxi: "I want to know what the plan is."
The woman in white said: "A plan that you cannot see with your current vision."
After she finished speaking, she took a breath and her voice softened.
"I just hope you can help him get through this difficulty. He is too smart and too paranoid. Once he is stuck in this state of mind and cannot get out, you know how dangerous it is."
Xie Yunxi said: "You care about him so much, why don't you go and tell him this in person?"
The woman in white shook her head and said, "I don't care enough. If I cared enough, I wouldn't have come to him in the past two years."
"Because I know more than you, so I don't care about him at all. I just look forward to him getting to that point."
She looked at Xie Yunxi's beautiful eyes again: "You are different. You cared about him when you knew nothing about him, so you don't have any other feelings for him, unlike me."
Speaking of this, the woman in white seemed to not want to say anything more.
"You should come out yourself."
After saying this, the woman in white leaned slightly to say goodbye, then turned and left.
Xie Yunxi didn't try to stay, nor did she ask any more questions, because she suddenly felt that she didn't need to embarrass someone who couldn't even make her identity public.
At this time, in the Protector's Mansion, Lin Ye was standing in front of the map, looking at it very intently, but he was in a daze.
"You're still not good at disguising yourself."
Xie Yunxi stepped through the door. Before anyone arrived, the voice had already reached Lin Ye's ears.
Lin Ye turned around quickly: "Auntie."
Xie Yunxi walked to Lin Ye and raised his head to look at the map that Lin Ye had been staring at for a while.
"You can see everything in the world on the map, but you can't see yourself."
Xie Yunxi took a charcoal pen, found the location of Yunzhou on the map, and then clicked heavily.
"You were born here, grew up here, and became a big shot here."
She said: "Your life is clearer than the lives of most people in this world, but you have always wanted to find yourself who is not clear."
Lin Ye said: "Maybe it's because I feel that I am walking on behalf of others, or walking in someone else's identity, to reach such a clear path now."
Xie Yunxi said: "I remembered an allusion. Before Dayu was founded, Emperor Taizu once suffered a loss and lost a lot of troops. He asked Wang Shufang, the first counselor beside him, why this man's heart was so complicated. I can’t always tell the difference between true feelings and falsehoods.”
Because the defeat in that battle was because Emperor Taizu's good friend betrayed him, which almost made Emperor Taizu hate the northwest.
Xie Yunxi said: "Wang Shufang told Emperor Taizu that my lord does not need to distinguish who is true and who is fake. My lord only needs to distinguish who can benefit you and who can put you in danger."
"Emperor Taizu asked him if this would make him seem too cold and cold. Everyone only cares about gains and losses, and there would be no human warmth. Wang Shufang said, Master, don't you want to be the emperor? Since you want to be the emperor, why? Do you care about this?"
When she said this, she looked at Lin Ye: "What do you think I am trying to persuade you by saying these words?"
Lin Ye: "What a big deal, let's rebel against your emperor brother?!"
Xie Yunxi's eyes widened.
Lin Ye laughed and suddenly put his arm around Xie Yunxi's shoulders in a very rude and somewhat irritable manner.
"Auntie, I know you are afraid that I will have mental problems."
He said: "I'm not that..."
While he was holding his arms around his aunt's shoulders and still talking, he felt his aunt's arms lift up as well. Judging from the route, she also wanted to put them on his shoulders.
In this way, the posture of the two people will become like good buddies holding hands, which feels really wonderful.
He smiled.
With a snap, Xie Yunxi slapped him on the back of the head, and Lin Ye took that hand back in a sullen voice.
"I just said that you are not good at acting after all."
Xie Yunxi said: "Whether you are playing someone who is worried or careless, they are all superficial."
Lin Ye hummed.
He took heavy, long breaths several times in a row. "Before this, I had doubts that I was the one chosen to avenge the general, but I never doubted whose son or brother I was."
Lin Ye raised his hand and rubbed his temples: "I don't even know what I should doubt tomorrow. What I will ultimately doubt is...whether I am a human being."
Xie Yunxi said: "When I went to practice Yu Xin Guan, I cried once because I didn't do well in the exercises. My senior sisters comforted me and said, it doesn't matter if I don't do well. If I work harder, I will be able to do well next time and surpass Good to all."
Lin Ye said: "It's a good comfort."
Xie Yunxi said: "But I won't be sad because of such words, even if they are very reasonable, because these words are encouragement, not comfort."
"My master asked me when I had cried enough. I said I didn't know, so my master took me out and bought some new clothes, a bunch of beautiful hairpins, hairpins, and seven or eight kinds of candies. When I came back At that time, my master asked me, can I still cry?"
She looked at Lin Ye: "To comfort people, you don't have to rack your brains to think of so many inspirational words, especially to comfort a woman. If she needs inspiration, will she still cry?"
Lin Ye: "I... am not a woman."
Xie Yunxi suddenly raised his hand and put his arm around Lin Ye's shoulders. Lin Ye's body suddenly froze.
Xie Yunxi said: "But you also need new clothes, accessories, and beautiful and sweet candies."
She said: "When your life, except for hard work, is filled with good things, you don't need to doubt the bad things."
She turned around, stepped on her feet, and kissed Lin Ye gently on the face.
"Auntie, you are so bold this time."
After she said these words and kissed her, she instantly felt the tension in various muscles on Lin Ye's body.
But she didn't intend to stop. She stood on tiptoe again and reached Lin Ye's lips, just touching them like a dragonfly.
A dragonfly touching the water would cause ripples on the surface of the water. Lin Ye's lips had no ripples, but his heart was filled with waves, surges, and waves.
He turned his head mechanically to look at his aunt, but she had already taken a step back.
"Enjoying good things is not about being greedy."
She raised her hand to signal Lin Ye not to act rashly, but to just stand there obediently.
Lin Ye's face was ridiculously red.
He opened his mouth: "But... we can't stop at the beauty."
My aunt said: "All the good things you order are just right. If you eat to your heart's content once, you won't like to eat so much next time, and you will just take a few bites at will next time... "
Before she finished speaking, Lin Ye took a step forward, looking like he was going to do something wrong.
Xie Yunxi raised his hand and tapped Lin Ye's heart: "Urgentness is like a law, the evildoer decides it for me."
Lin Ye: "......"
Xie Yunxi said: "Okay, today you will no longer be in an unstable mood because of doubting those bad things, and my merits will be complete today."
Lin Ye: "What about tomorrow? Can I pay in advance?"
Xie Yunxi: "Hey...when did you come, Master Master?"
Lin Ye was startled and turned around quickly.
There was no sign of the real master. When he turned around, Xie Yunxi had already walked far away. He was walking with his hands behind his back, but he was not strolling at all. His little steps were very fast.
Lin Ye stood there, stunned for a long time.
At the same time, on the stone tower in the courtyard of the Duhu Mansion, the real head master stood there with his hands behind his back. Although he did not look back or deliberately look down, he seemed to have seen everything.
The woman in white stood beside him, shaking her head slightly and sighing unconsciously, but there was also a smile between her eyebrows.
The Master said to himself: "Women... are indeed the medicine given to men by God."
