Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight
Chapter 197: The Powerful Minister’s Painted Demon White Moonlight (45)
Yuebai had naturally heard some of these things from you, so she looked at Xiao Fuci and waited for what to say next.
Xiao Fuci paused for a moment, then continued, "I didn't know this before. I only knew about it when I was at the Princess's Mansion. They chose me for the marriage because of my special qualities. They wanted the sacred tree and the secret technique, and they thought that since I would be liked by the demons, I would naturally be liked by you as well.
I'm not telling you this to make you think that everything is the Xiao family's fault. I also have my own selfish motives. I was taught from a young age to put the interests of the family first, so no matter how reluctant I was, I still went to Huai'an."
The members of aristocratic families are taught from childhood that family is the most important thing. Since they have been given preferential treatment because of their family, they naturally have to devote themselves to the family. They all understand that this is not Xiao Fuci's fault. If it was just an ordinary marriage to exchange power, it would be fine, but the Xiao family had other ideas.
"I know, Ah Ci, but my liking for you is not because of your attraction to spirits. I simply like you, and I asked my father to send a letter to the late emperor asking you to serve as an official in the court."
Hearing Yue Bai say this, Xiao Fuci's eyes were slightly moist, and his voice was a little hoarse as he said, "My feelings for you may not have been pure before, but later I realized how much you meant to me. Perhaps not having you and having lost you is the most painful thing."
In fact, Yuebai knew that it was not Xiao Fuci's fault. No one in such a family would teach him how to love. This was the reason why Yuebai had to fake his death. Maybe Xiao Fuci was sincere to his fiancée, but if everything went too smoothly, he would not fall in love with his wife.
The life of the young master of the Xiao family has been too smooth. He has never experienced what it feels like to lose something. Only when the family is backstabbed and encounters a major change can it be unforgettable.
Thinking of this, Yuebai gently leaned her head on Xiao Fuci's shoulder and comforted him softly: "Aci, you won't be alone after I come back. I will accompany you. Aci, the past doesn't count. Let's start over."
It was not until this moment that Xiao Fuci felt that he was pardoned. He put his arms around Yue Bai's shoulders, held her in his arms, and smelled the faint fragrance of her hair. His soul, which had been wandering for ten years, finally found a place to stay with her call for a fresh start.
Carefully placed a kiss on Yuebai's eyebrows: "Thank you."
Thank you for pardoning me. The powerful and influential minister, the feared Yu Xiuluo, is now just an ordinary man, begging for the love of the one he loves.
At this time, the aroma of grilled fish wafted, dusk fell, and more and more fireflies appeared. The two of them sat like this from sunset to late at night. When Xiao Fuci looked down again, Yuebai had fallen asleep leaning against him.
Naturally, he couldn't bear to disturb Yuebai's sweet dream, so Xiao Fuci picked up Yuebai and walked out of the Jinghu area. He saw two teams of people waiting there. When they saw Xiao Fuci coming out, someone immediately came to greet him.
Seeing that Yuebai was still asleep, he bowed silently and took her to the carriage. The inside of the carriage was different from the plainness outside, with soft cushions. Yuebai only frowned the moment the cushions were put down.
He muttered "Ah Ci."
Xiao Fuci quickly replied: "I'm here."
Yuebai seemed to smell the familiar scent of ink and fell into deep sleep again.
The driver lowered his voice and asked, "Where are you going, sir?"
"Go back to Ji Mansion." Xiao Fuci had actually already made plans. No matter whether Yue Bai could reconcile with him or not, he would keep her by his side.
According to today's arrangement, if Yuebai had not chosen him, he would not let go. So when he stood on the edge of the cliff, Yuebai pulled him back.
Xiao Fuci gazed at Yuebai's sleeping face and felt that the ten years of suffering were worth it. He was willing to become the young master of the Xiao family again for her and continue their story.
Fortunately, it is not too late, fortunately, everything is still in time, Xiao Fuci has a second chance.
After the two of them resolved their misunderstandings, they got along even better. The Ji family respected Yuebai's choice and after warning Xiao Fuci, they let them go.
It was just that she hadn't seen Qi Ji for several days. Yue Bai thought he was in a bad mood and she couldn't contact him. It seemed that Qi Ji had never let Yue Bai look for him in all the time he had been with her. He always stayed at home waiting for Yue Bai, and as long as she turned around, Qi Ji would be there.
Qi Ji, who was being missed by Yue Bai, was now sealing up Coral. It turned out that he left that day because the restriction on Coral disappeared.
He chased for a long time. The twin corals were elixir of heaven and earth, and they were better at hiding after changing their shapes, so he didn't find the corals for a while.
After two days of tracking, we finally found the dying coral among the reeds by the river.
Qi Ji approached the woman lying on the ground step by step. She was dressed in red. When he got closer, he found that the red around her was not all from her skirt but from her blood.
Qi Ji stopped beside Shanhu and said, "Why bother?" He looked down at the embarrassed Shanhu and said, "Even if you leave the restrictions I put on you, you will still be mermaids. Twin Shanhu were born this way. Just accept your fate."
His casual words of accepting fate made Shanhu's eyes burst with strong resentment: "You asked me to accept my fate, but it was she who came back to life, and it was you who turned time and space for her. You greedily sought immortality for your own selfish desires, but why did you sacrifice me?"
It turns out that from the moment she was born with intelligence, Coral knew her role, so she had been disguising herself. However, Qi Ji watched her too closely, so she released the restrictions herself and had to disguise herself. She only escaped when the time was right.
In the end, she was not free after escaping. She was born with intelligence in the mermaid tribe. The mermaid priests were very kind to her, so she had never seen the evil of human nature. In just half a month, she realized that her own people could not be trusted, and she also knew that it was not safe outside.
Qi Ji stretched out his hand and glanced at Shanhu's injury, his face darkened: "Where is your inner elixir?"
Shanhu closed her eyes and said, "It was taken away by the demon catcher. You are too late."
Even if the inner elixir is taken away, it cannot be refined directly. Qi Ji is not very anxious. Besides, he always has some secret methods to find the location of the inner elixir as long as Coral is still alive.
"It's God's will that you were taken away by someone else, saving me the trouble of doing it myself."
Shanhu said disdainfully: "You are afraid that the consequences will fall on the person from the Ji family."
At first, Shanhu was worried that it was Qi Ji who sent people, but she dismissed the idea. If it was Qi Ji who sent people, she would not survive. Moreover, the mermaids knew how to use Shanhu, so it was impossible for them to be so casual. Moreover, this person’s mind was all on Miss Ji, and he would not bother about a pill.
