Chapter 23 Sacrifice
Author: Demon Tower Tower
Since then, I have learned about another side of Bai Yuan from Xiao Wenxuan.
It is undeniable that this had a great impact on Zhu Xiaozhou, like a muffled thunder exploding in his heart.
What else did Xiao Wenxuan say next——
But Zhu Xiaozhou couldn't listen anymore. He only felt a roaring in his ears, which was very annoying and tiring.
Xiao Wenxuan wished she could know immediately how miserable and embarrassed Xie Zhen was when he died tragically in Yueshou Pavilion because of Bai Yuan's ruthlessness. He did not want Zhu Xiaozhou to follow Xie Zhen's path and become a "sacrifice" to Bai Yuan.
"Xie Zhen——is the first life of you and Pei Jing." Xiao Wenxuan said.
At that moment, Zhu Xiaozhou felt very uncomfortable in his heart, as if he was being torn apart by something and was about to be torn apart.
The pain made her eyes red and she had difficulty breathing.
I no longer care about what Bai Yuan and Pei Jing said——
No matter what was said.
To her, it doesn't matter anymore.
"Why are you telling me this?" Zhu Xiaozhou looked at Xiao Wenxuan blankly, with countless guesses in his mind.
Why did Xiao Wenxuan tell her this?
When she just had a little bit of affection for Bai Yuan.
Xiao Wenxuan said, "Bo Yuan has his own fate. He is the emperor of the ninth heaven, Bai Yuan. His status is much more noble than the emperor of heaven. He also has his own beloved. You should not end up like Zhen'er."
In his opinion, it was impossible for Bai Yuan to really fall in love with her or them.
For Bai Yuan, there is only one reason for their existence——
At this time, Zheng Shanqi found "Tai Shang Qing" and said that "Master Zhang" asked her for a favor.
Bai Yuan followed Zheng Shanqi back to the room, and looked at Zhu Xiaozhou who was weak and weak due to injuries on the couch, and was about to refuse on her behalf.
"good."
Zhu Xiaozhou agreed immediately.
Bai Yuan was a little surprised and felt that Zhu Xiaozhou seemed different.
But now that she has made her choice, Bai Yuan still respects her and plans to accompany her on another trip.
"Can I trouble you?" Zhu Xiaozhou held up his body that was about to fall apart, sat up from the couch, suddenly turned to Xiao Wenxuan and begged, "I may not be able to hold on, so please accompany me for a walk."
Bai Yuan glanced at Xiao Wenxuan, and then his eyes fell on Zhu Xiaozhou.
It seemed like he couldn't believe what he just heard.
"Okay." Xiao Wenxuan responded gently, supporting the weak Zhu Xiaozhou——
He walked around Bai Yuan and walked out of the room.
Bai Yuan turned his head sideways, and until the last moment they left, he still thought that Zhu Xiaozhou might change his mind.
But, no.
Xiao Wenxuan put a heavy cloak on her with his own hands, helped her get into the car, and rode with Zheng Shanqi and the other three.
On the way, Zheng Shanqi talked about the commission from "Master Zhang".
"Master Zhang said, I still want to ask you to think of a way."
"I have already said that there is no way I can bring him to the future world. He is a person who appeared in the past. If he is brought to the future, he will disappear out of thin air during this period of time." Zhu Xiaozhou
I know very well that this cannot be broken.
Let alone Zhang Yizhi, even if he was Wu Zetian, Zhu Xiaozhou could not change history.
Zheng Shanqi wanted to say something else, but he looked up at the owner of "Tai Shang Qing" and couldn't help but swallow the words back in his stomach.
Arriving at the private residence of "Master Zhang", Zhu Xiaozhou's vision suddenly went dark when he got out of the car, and he almost fell down.
Fortunately, Xiao Wenxuan had quick eyes and quick hands and caught her.
He didn't let her fall to the ground in public and cause embarrassment.
After meeting Zhang Yi, Zheng Shanqi glanced at him quietly, as if answering a request on the way, but failed to get Zhu Xiaozhou's answer.
Zhang Yizhi was unhappy on his face, but he still maintained due courtesy in front of Zhu Xiaozhou.
He asked Zhu Xiaozhou if there were any other secrets on the green jade hairpin.
Because after he presented the green jade hairpin to the Holy One, the Holy One liked it very much, but he wore it for a few days——
"What happened?" Zhu Xiaozhou sensed something was wrong from what he didn't finish.
Could it be——
"The Holy One fainted several times and could not wake up from a long sleep." Zhang Yizhi said.
Ever since Emperor Wu got the green jade hairpin, he became a little strange and rarely summoned him.
If Emperor Wu really liked the green jade hairpin, the person who presented it——
You will definitely be favored and rewarded.
However, except for the first reward given to him by Emperor Wu, there was no summons, which made him feel a little strange.
Could it be that something went wrong? Or was it the green jade hairpin——
What's the mystery?
So he asked the people around Emperor Wu about it.
Only then did I know that since Emperor Wu got the green jade hairpin, he had been sleeping all day long, as if--
"I have never heard that green jade hairpins can cause people to sleep forever." Zhu Xiaozhou was also confused.
Secretly looking at Zheng Shanqi.
Most of her understanding of green jade hairpins came from Zheng Shanqi.
But since Zheng Shanqi doesn’t know, then she——
How could you possibly know that green jade hairpin has such side effects?
"If I could take a look at His Majesty, I might be able to see something else. But right now, I can't guess the reason."
Zhu Xiaozhou was in a dilemma.
If there was a secret hidden in the green jade hairpin, she would have to meet the Queen to know what was going on.
"If I can arrange for you to meet the Holy Emperor, are you really sure that you can tell the clues?" Zhang Yizhi was convinced.
It seemed that it was determined that there was something wrong with the green jade hairpin.
"Maybe." Zhu Xiaozhou didn't dare to speak too absolutely.
After all, the green jade hairpin is Qiyundang's real product. If there is really a problem, you might be able to tell something after just one glance.
"Okay." Zhang Yizhi agreed, "Please stay here for two days. I will make arrangements as soon as possible to take you into the palace, but -"
only?
Seeing Zhu Xiaozhou's confusion, Zhang Yizhi added, "It's just these two days, I hope you don't go anywhere."
Zhu Xiaozhou was stunned. Doesn't this mean he was under house arrest?!
But now I am in his private residence, surrounded by his people——
Xiao Wenxuan saw her uneasiness, walked behind her, and put his hand on her shoulder.
The moment Zhu Xiaozhou lost his mind, he turned around and saw Xiao Wenxuan.
I saw——
Xiao Wenxuan nodded to her to reassure her.
He will always be with her.
Zhu Xiaozhou breathed a sigh of relief and agreed to Zhang Yizhi's request.
Zhang Yizhi began to arrange for Zhu Xiaozhou to enter the palace to meet Emperor Wu. Zhu Xiaozhou, Xiao Wenxuan, and Zheng Shanqi stayed in his private residence. Zheng Shanqi was overjoyed that he was about to meet the legendary empress.
Zhu Xiaozhou was a little more worried.
Xiao Wenxuan told her that the Zhang brothers were favored in front of Emperor Wu, which had already caused dissatisfaction among everyone in the court. They repeatedly slandered Emperor Wu, causing him to kill innocent people and massacre the clan.
It won't be long before they will pay the price for what they have done.
"It's natural!"
Before Zhu Xiaozhou could speak, Zheng Shanqi took over.
Calculating the time, it is not far from the Shenlong Coup.
The good days of these two brothers may not last long.
Xiao Wenxuan looked at Zheng Shanqi and immediately realized something was wrong, "You are not the person at this time either."
Then, he looked at Zhu Xiaozhou.
"But why is there a difference in time between the two of you?"
"The difference between me and him is almost twenty years." Zhu Xiaozhou said helplessly, because a green jade hairpin brought them here, but they were helpless.
