Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Bei Yao heard this and sighed, "Make a wish, you know I won't kill you."

He won't kill Wish.

Just for the life-saving grace, he wouldn't bother making a wish.

However, he could not back down on this matter and let Xu Yuan's wish come true.

"But there are no eternal friends in this world. If I block your way, I will become your enemy, Shen Renyao, you are not a kind-hearted person." Xu Yuan said in a calm voice.

Xuyuan has already understood it.

If she didn't quite understand it before, she understood it the moment Bei Yao stood idly by and watched in the Geshu tribe.

"Even if you think so in your heart, I still want to tell you that I have never thought of taking your life. Today in King Geshu's tent, I did not take action, but just wanted to see how far you can go."

Bei Yao looked at Xu Yuan with a serious look, and spoke again: "I am not a person who seeks credit. I gave you the city defense map, and I pretended to know nothing about the letter. Xu Yuan, I have never regarded you as an enemy."

Xu Yuan tilted his head slightly and said nothing.

Two little people suddenly appeared in her mind.

One said, "Yes, he is a man of honor and integrity. He always keeps his word and will definitely not stand by and watch someone die."

Another said, "They are just some harmless things. Compared with the military merits that are within his grasp, he naturally doesn't care about that little bit of evidence."

The two little men seemed to be in a conflict between heaven and earth, but Xuyuan felt inexplicably nervous.

She felt she had changed.

In the past, she was extremely indifferent. When she was in the capital, no matter how those nobles humiliated her, she never got angry or upset.

That's because she never took those people to heart, nor did she entrust her true heart to them.

But today is different.

Because of Beiyao's "inaction in watching someone die", she seemed to completely hate this man.

If no one else came to rescue her, Xu Yuan might not even raise her eyes, because she knew that no one was obligated to help her.

But Beiyao is different.

She never thought that Beiyao would save her, but she hoped that Beiyao would save her.

Perhaps it is because of the expectations, so when disappointment comes, the pain is magnified countless times.

Xu Yuan hated Bei Yao's cold eyes, and he hated himself even more for falling in love with Bei Yao.

Seeing Xu Yuan was silent, Bei Yao spoke again: "Whether you consider me a friend or not, I have to remind you that if you go to the appointment tomorrow, you will be like Wei Chenggong, colluding with foreign nations and committing treason."

The wind mixed with snowflakes blew between the two people.

Bei Yao spoke again: "Xu Yuan, you must have heard about the noble Xu family mentioned by Shen Yichuan in the academy, and the disastrous consequences of the Xu family being wiped out. Do you want to give it a try?"

Beiyao knew that Xu Yuan valued his family the most.

He hopes that Xu Yuan can think about his family, and at the same time uses the past of the "Xu family" to remind Xu Yuan not to follow in the Xu family's footsteps.

Whether Xu Yuan is a descendant of the Xu family remains to be verified.

But if he does nothing today, the future he wished for will be ruined.

Xu Yuan cannot bear the crime of treason and collaborating with the enemy.

Bei Yao also didn't want to see Xu Yuan ruin his future like this.

"The Xu family's case has been judged. My father is here today. Seeing that the people of Geshu are living in dire straits, he will not sit idly by. I have no regrets about this matter, and I am not afraid."

Xu Yuan looked at Bei Yao with cold eyes, "Mr. Shen, you don't have to persuade me. I can bear all the consequences myself."

After making the wish, he turned and left.

After walking only two steps, she stopped again and turned back to say, "Master Shen, you said you wanted to recover the Geshu tribe, but the court had no plan to send troops to attack the Geshu tribe. You want to sacrifice the Geshu people for your own gain. Doesn't that count as seeking merit? You knew that Wei Chenggong and Geshu were colluding with each other to support war, but you didn't report to the court in time, but deliberately provoked a war. Is this good? Don't use the word "subject" to crown your actions with justice, because it is too hypocritical."

After making the wish, I suddenly felt relieved.

She has her persistence and she will definitely stick to it.

As the moonlight grew darker, Bei Yao looked at Xu Yuan's back and continued to remain silent.

The boy is not big, but he is extremely powerful.

He is like a bamboo, taking root in the ground for many years in obscurity, but once he breaks through the soil, he grows extremely quickly.

Bei Yao couldn't help but ask: "Chen Shan, do you think I was really wrong?"

Chen Shan didn't dare to speak out as bluntly as he had done when it came to right and wrong.

After all, the person in front of him was the third prince.

Chen Shan took a step back and said, "Third Master's decision has never been wrong."

"For Tianqi, attacking Geshu at this time must be the best opportunity, but what about the Geshu tribe? Tianqi is a villain."

Beiyao was silent as he spoke.

At the beginning, he thought that since there would inevitably be a war, why not take advantage of this war to expand Tianqi's territory.

Therefore, he personally promoted this war.

But later, he saw all kinds of human life in the Geshu tribe, which he had never seen in the capital.

Xu Yuan was right. The cost of a meal for a noble family in the capital city was equivalent to the annual expenses of a family in Sishui County.

At that time, he also insisted that "it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish."

As long as Tianqi conquers the Geshu tribe, the Geshu people will no longer go hungry in the future.

But now, the words of the wish were like a blow to the head, waking him up.

Perhaps, there was no such battle at all?

Perhaps, the emperor has never thought of retaking the Geshu tribe?

Bei Yao was a little confused and didn't know whether what he was doing was right or wrong.

Chen Shan did not respond, and it was not his turn to respond.

Bei Yao stood there in silence for a long time before turning around and leaving.

When I made a wish and returned home, it was already completely dark.

After dinner, the family was in a panic and had gone to bed long ago. Only the light in his room was still on. It was Cheng Zhicheng who was reading a book.

Chen Bo was not in the room. Xu Yuan guessed that he might have other tasks to do and did not ask any more questions.

She sat on the edge of the bed, looked up at the bright moon outside the window, and her heart couldn't help but fall silent.

Tomorrow is a critical moment.

If Beiyao was determined to stop her, she would be helpless.

By then, Geshuwang would think that her promise was just empty talk.

What should she do then?

Before going to the county government office, Xu Yuan had imagined countless possibilities and countless ways to deal with Wei Chenggong, but she never expected that Bei Yao would hear what she and Wei Chenggong said.

Xu Yuan sighed softly.

Cheng Zhicheng, who was reading a book on the other side, looked up and asked, "What's wrong with you? When you came back just now, I noticed that you were in a bad mood. Is it because Zhang Yue's matter is not what you said?"

After thinking about it, Cheng Zhicheng felt that this was the only possibility.

"fine."

Xu Yuan raised his head to dispel the anxiety in his heart, then buried himself in the quilt and murmured, "Reading at night hurts your eyes, you should go to bed early."

"Ok."

Since Xu Yuan didn't say anything, Cheng Zhicheng didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that Xuyuan was going to sleep, he blew out the lamp and lay down on the bed.

After a long while, he asked, "Xuyuan, are you asleep?"

"what happened?"

"I can't sleep. So many things have happened these days. I've been wanting to find someone to have a good chat with, but I never have the chance."

Cheng Zhicheng's words were somewhat gloomy.

Xu Yuan took it to heart and said, "I'm a little tired today. Let's talk about it tomorrow night."

If it were tomorrow, she would still have a chance to come back alive.

Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Cheng Zhicheng felt a little disappointed, but thinking of Xu Yuan's running around day and night, he said, "Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow."
