I just want to die of old age

"Then our Xie family must live well. In the future, the emperor will regret raising this dog, and it will become his nightmare that he cannot escape in this life."

Su Yuzhu looked at the indifferent Xie Wuhen, a hint of pity flashed in her eyes, and her hand unconsciously rested on his shoulder.

"Then you have to live well."

Xie Wuhen turned his head, looked deeply at Su Yuzhu, and gently held her hand.

"Thank you for staying with me tonight." A touch of warmth flashed across Xie Wuhen's cold face. "But it's been a long time since I've confided in you like this."

Su Yuzhu glanced at the clasped hands and did not pull them back. She just chuckled and said, "I usually see you as calm as water and don't care about anything, but this is the first time I see you being so straightforward and honest."

"It seems that when I'm by your side, I don't need to hide any emotions."

In front of the Xie family, Xie Wuhen always looks strong and capable of handling anything.

"You are used to relying on yourself for everything, but ever since the incident with the Xie family, you appear to be calm on the surface, but in fact, you are full of resentment towards the court in your heart."

Xie Wuhen showed a cold smile on his face, revealing all the resentment in his heart: "Yes, I hate it, especially when I see my family members injured, I wish I could die with them."

Su Yuzhu looked at the blackened Xie Wuhen. At this moment, he was full of resentment towards the whole world, but in front of his family, he felt deeply warm.

Therefore, he felt complicated and conflicted. If anything unexpected happened to the Xie family, then there would be no one and nothing in this world worthy of his attention.

"Then take revenge. If you have grievances, take revenge. Don't feel aggrieved while living in this world."

There was a hint of surprise in Xie Wuhen's eyes. It was obvious that this unreasonable thought rushed into his mind.

After all, the ancients were all about loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and if the emperor wanted his subjects to die, they had to die.

"Let me tell you a story."

Without waiting for Xie Wuhen to refuse, Su Yuzhu told him the story of Yue Fei in a vivid manner.

There was a hero who fought bravely against the Japanese invaders. He was born in an era that valued culture over military affairs.

The imperial court was incompetent and had to pay money to foreign races regardless of whether it won or lost the war.

Until Yue Fei came into the world, his mother-in-law, a woman of great sense of justice, tattooed "Serve the country with loyalty" on her son's back, asking him to serve the court.

Yue Fei lived up to expectations. He defeated the foreign invaders and made them flee in panic. He was about to recover the lost territory, but in the end he received 12 tokens in succession from the emperor.

All previous efforts were in vain, and under the slander of treacherous officials, Yue Fei was ordered to be executed on false charges.

After Yue Fei's death, the foreigners celebrated in their own territory.

At the same time, the imperial court also lost its last hope of fighting against foreign races.

But in Su Yuzhu's eyes, such a court has no need to serve him at all.

After losing Yue Fei, this court no longer had any value in existence.

Xie Wuhen looked at the indignation in Su Yuzhu's eyes, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, as if he had found the direction through a fog.

A faint smile appeared on Xie Wuhen's face, and instantly it was as if the iceberg had melted and he felt the warmth of spring and the blooming of flowers.

"I understand what you mean."

Xie Wuhen removed the stone that was pressing on his heart and felt extremely happy.

Yuzhu was right. Why should they continue to serve this incompetent court? They had guarded the border before in order to protect the people.

Xie Wuhen took Su Yuzhu's hand, his eyes sparkling with a glittering light: "Having you as a close friend in this life is enough."

What he actually wanted to ask was whether he could stay by his side forever?

But people in ancient times were still relatively reserved, and some things could not be said until the right time.

Xie Wuhen looked down at her smiling face and his heartstrings were slightly moved.

The moon seemed especially round today, and there was a hint of ambiguity in the looks they gave each other.

The next day, Su Yuzhu rubbed her sleepy eyes and yawned several times.

Xie Luoyi came to Su Yuzhu with concern and asked worriedly: "Sister-in-law, were you scared by the thieves yesterday?"

Su Yuzhu paused for a moment, then said, "It took a long time to fall asleep."

It was not that yesterday's moon was too bright and its beauty was misleading, so I was only busy comforting the lost handsome man.

"Maybe he was too excited and didn't get enough sleep. That's why he looked like this when he woke up today."

Sheroy said with a teasing look in his eyes.

"Don't meddle in other people's business, kid." Su Yuzhu tapped her forehead.

Xie Luoyi covered his forehead and said unconvincedly: "I am not young, I have already reached the age of marriage."

“That’s still a child.”

After what happened last night, the refugees really did flee and no one followed behind.

But for the Chen family and the Wang family, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Because all the food they had was snatched away by the refugees.

Even the officials lost a lot of food, and the pressure of survival came immediately.

Su Yuzhu could feel the burning gazes of the two families, eagerly looking at their food.

If last night's action had not given them a warning, they would have rushed forward to rob them long ago.

Chen Yue's father, Chen Bai, came to the leader Chen Hu and whispered, "We have lost a lot of food now, so why not collect the Xie family's food?"

Chen Hu said with impatience on his face: "Do you really think that the sons of the Xie family are just decorations and weak and can be bullied? If you keep nagging, don't blame me, I will whip you."

Chen Bo was very disappointed when he heard this and could only think of another way.

Chen Hu looked at Xie Wuhen with a thoughtful expression.

If it weren't for Xie Wuhen yesterday, this group of people would have been lost in some corner.

Although Chen Hu is just an ordinary police officer, he has quite a keen eye.

It was obvious that Xie Wuhen's strength had recovered. With their strength, leaving here would be easy.

But he hasn't left yet. What is Xie Wuhen thinking?

They rested for a while, then got ready to continue their journey.

And that Chen Yue came forward again shamelessly.

Su Yuzhu felt itchy and wanted to punch her in the face.

"Wuhen, my legs are sore after walking for a long time. Can you wait for me?" Chen Yue's voice was so delicate that she seemed to want to stick to Xie Wuhen.

But Xie Wuhen was a man who didn't understand romance. He just walked faster and his two long legs disappeared in an instant.

Chen Yue stomped her feet with an unpleasant look on her face. She just didn't believe that she couldn't win a man.

It is said that it is easy for a girl to pursue a boy, but Xie Wuhen is extremely difficult to deal with.

Such a delicate beauty, she was courteous to Xie Wuhen but did not express her feelings at all.

Xie Luoyi snorted disdainfully: "Don't keep pestering me, my brother won't like you."
