Sword of the Red Chamber from Heaven

Chapter 689: People as chess pieces, Xiangyun and Xichun

"Sister Xiangyun!"

When Xichun saw Xiangyun walking out with her head down, she felt quite embarrassed, so she started to greet her.

"Miss Xiangyun!"

Miaoyu did not leave. Looking at the girl, she nodded slightly as a greeting.

"Miss Smith, today's incident can be considered a blessing in disguise for you."

Hearing Miaoyu's words, Xiangyun's pretty face turned red and she said nothing.

She shifted her gaze to Jia Hong, who had been sitting here without saying a word. In fact, she knew that there was only one person who had the final say in her affairs. This person was not Xichun, who had the final say in the Jia Mansion, nor was it Miaoyu, the housekeeper of the Marquis' Mansion, but Jia Hong.

Jia Hong seemed to notice Xiangyun's gaze and nodded.

"When this matter is over, I will definitely give Sister Xiangyun an explanation."

Jia Hong made his promise.

At this time, he had already realized Taoist Miaomiao's plan. This chess game was too big and it dragged the entire Dakang into it.

From the royal nobles to the peddlers, all became pawns in this Shinto battle. He was not sure when the lame old Taoist came up with this plan, but the end result was this.

Or maybe those people in the upper realm had this plan from the beginning.

  In the ordinary world, whether it is a natural disaster or a natural disaster, they are all natural phenomena between heaven and earth. They are inevitable and are the product of the operation of the laws of nature. But in this world, it is difficult for him not to think, is there really no one behind the scenes manipulating the phenomena that have occurred during this period?

If this is true, then the fate of the human world is simply a huge joke.

Heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as straw dogs. Sages are unkind and treat the people as straw dogs.

So many people were sacrificed, but in the end, it was just those high and mighty immortals who did it at will, and their goal was just to burn two more incense sticks in front of the statue? ?

  If things really come to that point, he will no longer hand over the throne of the emperor to the princes of Emperor Ming Kang. How can a puppet emperor restore peace to the world?

"Hmm~"

Xiangyun nodded. Jia Hong always kept his word. Since Jia Hong had spoken, she believed that he would give her an explanation.

"What's the situation outside?"

Jia Hong then looked at Miaoyu and began to ask about the developments outside the capital. Such a big chess game, which was almost at its final stage, should not be so stable.

"Prince Dongping led the army to repel the two groups of people in the capital and marched straight to the capital. However, most of the thunder bombs should have been consumed. The enemy should not be able to break through the last line of defense in the capital. Even if they can break through, they probably won't be able to fight again."

Miaoyu thought about some of the information she had received before coming here, added some of her own divination, and gave a general account of the current situation.

When Xiangyun heard this, she looked a little surprised. In her opinion, things like this should be extremely secretive, or military secrets, but Miaoyu seemed to be talking about something very ordinary, without any change.

Seeing the other girl beside her who didn't care at all, Xiangyun felt mixed emotions. She said that this little girl didn't care about the outside world at all, and was still thinking about watching some men dressed as women. It seems that she knew what was going on. Although Jia Hong said that he was seriously injured, it seemed that the other party was still paying attention to the movements outside the capital. Just knowing this, her heart suddenly calmed down.

  It is said that when the sky collapses, there will always be someone tall to hold it up. Now that Dakang’s pillars of support have not fallen, why is she still worrying about it?

Xiangyun walked slowly to Xichun's side. Seeing her slightly puzzled look, Xiangyun suddenly felt a little angry. This little girl, although she was young, was very cunning. Was she sold out by her this time? Should she count the money for her? ?

"Sister Xiangyun~~"

As if she had sensed something was wrong, Xichun began to slowly step back.

"Sister Xichun, didn't we agree to see a woman dressed as a man? Shouldn't we talk about Brother Jia Hong's affairs?"

Xichun's eyes twitched and her mouth twitched. She didn't expect Xiangyun to still remember this. And what she was going through was not a small matter. Jia Hong was still around. Wouldn't she feel uncomfortable? She knew that Xiangyun was straightforward and carefree, but she didn't expect her to be so generous.

"Sister Xiangyun, I'm doing this for your own good. Don't you like Brother Jia Hong? If so, I will definitely apologize to Sister Xiangyun!"

Hearing Xichun's words, Xiangyun subconsciously looked at Jia Hong. Seeing that he was also looking at her, she quickly explained, "Stop talking nonsense!!"

“These are two different things!!”

"Brother Jia Xuan is naturally very good. I don't know how many girls in the capital are attracted to him!! I naturally like him very much too!!"

  The girl was still a little shy. When it came to liking someone, even Xiangyun, who was so carefree, subconsciously used others as a shield. Jia Hong was young and promising. He had good looks, achievements, character, and means. If other people liked such a person, it was no surprise that she liked him, right?

"Since my sister is also concerned about this, then I have done you a great favor, right?"

"Many girls would beg for such a good thing but cannot get it!!"

In fact, Xichun was essentially in the wrong in this matter, and she herself understood this point, but the key point was that the man was Jia Hong, a man of impeccable status and character. Xichun said something right, in this matter, there were many girls in the capital who could not get it.

Not to mention double cultivation and healing, even if it's just a one-night stand, there are still plenty of people rushing to do it! But Jia Hong is not that kind of person, and he always has his own standards in doing things.

So Xichun held on to this point. Although Xiangyun was eloquent, she was not sure whether she had suffered a loss or gained an advantage in this matter. In her heart, she was more inclined to believe that she had gained an advantage. Not counting the heat that kept moving around in her body like a little bug, she felt that she had gained a great advantage.

But she just felt a little angry, as if she had been deceived by Xichun.

Obviously, the other party was a girl younger than herself. She thought she was not a fool, but she did not see through the other party's calculations.

"Sister Xichun, you know that's not what I meant!!"

"Don't try to change the subject. Even if you told me directly that you wanted me to help Brother Jia Xuan heal his injuries, I wouldn't refuse. But you tricked me into coming in with the excuse that you wanted to see a woman dressed as a man. This is unacceptable!!"

After all, she is still Xiangyun, not Yingchun. Once things are talked out, she is not shy at all.

"How should I punish you for this matter?"
