Chapter 512 The best result
Ning Muqing felt as if someone had poured cold water on her head, and her hot head suddenly became cold.

She was stunned for a moment, "Is it just because of this?"

Chu Lixuan looked down at her, "Otherwise, why would you want to?"

What happened to the reason that he couldn't understand a woman's brain? What's wrong?

Ning Muqing tugged at the corners of her lips, "Chu Lixuan, we were bound together because we knew and felt the same way. If the person who married you was not me, would you also like it?"

Chu Lixuan was stunned for a moment, his eyebrows tightening, "What are you talking about?"

"You said it. It's natural that you like your princess." Ning Muqing looked at him, "But you didn't choose your princess by yourself. Do you like whoever marries you?"

Ning Muqing had to admit that she heard Chu Lixuan say the word "Xin Yue".

Her heart was beating fast.

For a moment, it was like being hit by a big prize from heaven.

Because I had no expectations at all, I was so surprised that I felt dizzy. My whole body felt as light as stepping on clouds. The only feeling was that it was unreal.

really.

The next second, she was struck down by Chu Lixuan's answer.

It's a matter of course.

But the reason why she and Chu Lixuan came together was not their own choice, but a substitute marriage, a result of rebirth and countless coincidences.

His original princess should not be her.

She shouldn't be sitting in that sedan chair either.

The person originally sitting in the sedan chair should be Ning Rourou, and the person he loved should also be Ning Rourou.

Therefore.

Hearing Chu Lixuan say this, she seemed to be particularly opportunistic, and even her original surprise turned into a mockery.

She couldn't tell for a moment whether Chu Lixuan said he liked her or he liked her as a person?
Or is she taking advantage of her identity as "Princess Ning"?
The curved corners of Ning Muqing's mouth slowly fell.

Chu Lixuan looked at her in astonishment, and then a burst of anger ignited in his eyes, "What do you mean by asking like that? Where did someone else come from?!"

Ning Muqing thought in her heart that it should have been "someone else".

He married the eldest daughter of the Xiao family.

She was the accident that shouldn't have happened.

She said calmly, "That's what it means. Whoever got on the sedan chair at the beginning was Princess Ning, not necessarily me. So, you said you liked me, was it wrong?"

She looked at Chu Lixuan and smiled lightly, "You should like 'Princess Ning'!"

"What detours are you making with me?!" Chu Lixuan suppressed his anger and said with great displeasure, "I am asking you, where did the other person come from?! Wasn't it you from the beginning to the end?"

He held her wrist tightly and stared at her face, "No matter how many identities you change, aren't Ning Muqing and Princess Ning still the same as you? Do you want to fight with me here for someone else?" Unreasonable?"

Or.

She just deliberately took this detour and deliberately got into this corner.

Because she didn't want to accept or respond to his feelings.

Ning Muqing murmured, "Then who am I?"

Chu Lixuan, "What?"

Ning Muqing smiled bitterly and said, "The me I used to be now? Who do you like?"

She comes from modern times, but now she is in the body of 'Ning Muqing'.

She was supposed to be dead, so had no real identity at all.

And when Chu Lixuan said "like", did he know who he liked?
This kind of love, this kind of emotion, is a bit too illusory.

Can't take it seriously!

Ning Muqing lowered her eyes, "It's getting late. You're still injured. Get out of here first!"

Chu Lixuan tightened his grip on her wrist and pulled her back, "Speak clearly to me!"

Ning Muqing frowned and said, "I've made it clear enough."

"Then tell me, who is the other person?" Chu Lixuan stared at her and sneered, "Say it yourself!"

Ning Muqing sighed, "Just think that I'm being unreasonable, okay?"

She really didn't want to explain.

She couldn't explain it either.

Chu Lixuan's eyes became even more angry, and his voice seemed to be frozen, "You want to reject me?"

There was a dangerous look in his eyes.

Ning Muqing felt something was wrong. If she continued talking, it would be difficult to end it.

"Chu Lixuan, you should know that now is not the time to talk about this."

She looked at the grim corpse on the ground and said, "The business has not been finished, and the identity of this person has not been found out. There is also Chen Guo's caravan nearby. It will be dawn soon. Are you sure you want to waste time here?" Do you care about these insignificant things with me?"

"Irrelevant?"

Chu Lixuan tightened his fingers and made several marks on her thin wrist.

"Can you say that again?!"

Ning Muqing held his hand, raised her head, and looked directly at him, "Anyway, I won't go back with you. We'll go separate ways first." "..." Chu Lixuan stared at her coldly.

Ning Muqing analyzed calmly, "The owner of the caravan I'm staying with wants to establish relations with the Chen Guo caravan. They will visit the county magistrate early tomorrow morning. If I follow them, I might have a chance.

As for your side, you have to go back and take charge of the overall situation. Going back with you won't do much good. It's better to act separately and cooperate again if necessary. The top priority now is to find out the true purpose of the caravan and find the location of their delivery. The second is to find the antidote to the poisonous needle. , and our mission to go to Chen State, which one is not more important than the question you asked? "

Chu Lixuan sneered, "So now, you want to use business to pressure me?"

Ning Muqing said, "I'm just telling you that now is not the time to be emotional."

"Then when is the time? You tell me!" Chu Lixuan said coldly.

"..." Ning Muqing did not answer.

"Or, let me put it another way." Chu Lixuan said word by word, "How long do you want to escape?"

Ning Muqing's breathing was slightly stagnant.

Chu Lixuan approached her and stared into hers with his sharp eyes, "Do you think I can't see through what you are thinking? If you can't answer what I say, you just use business as an excuse and say something high-sounding. Now This is not the time to be emotional!
Just one sentence, how much can it delay you? ! "

Ning Muqing bit her lower lip and looked at him, "When will you change your habit of asking for the truth?"

Knowing that she didn't want to say it.

Must ask.

She changed the subject and only talked about business. Couldn't she also show her attitude?
Chu Lixuan sneered, "Why should I do what you want?"

If she doesn't want to say it, don't say it. I'm so good at spoiling her!
Ning Muqing was a little unhappy, "If that's the case, why should I follow your wishes?"

Chu Lixuan tightened his fingers.

Ning Muqing laughed coldly, "This is not your Prince Ning's Mansion, nor is it your torture room. Do you have to tell me if you ask me? When did I become your yes man?"

Chu Lixuan's eyes were heavy, "It will do you no good to make me angry!"

"I know." Ning Muqing said lightly, "But it's not good for me to follow your wishes. There are two evils, and I can always choose one, right?"

The atmosphere suddenly became deadlocked, as if all the air had been sucked out, making it difficult to breathe.

Chu Lixuan's eyes were extremely dark and cold, like a stabbing knife.

Ning Muqing felt flustered when he stared at her.

But the more times like this, the less she can give in, because Chu Lixuan is a person who will push even further. There is never enough in his dictionary, there is only the pursuit of victory, and he will never let go of his prey!

Like a wolf.

And as long as she gives in, she will be attacked and plundered until she is completely defeated!

Just when the atmosphere was at an extreme stalemate, it was about to explode.

suddenly.

"The sky is dry and things are dry, be careful with the candles——"

The sound of the clock was heard far outside the house, and Ning Muqing and Chu Lixuan looked out the window at the same time.

It's already five o'clock in the morning.

Soon it will be daybreak, and there will be no time for them to delay any longer.

Ning Muqing suppressed her emotions and forced herself to calm down, "Make a decision quickly. Either we have a fight and you take me back, or we separate peacefully and act separately, I can do both."

She said somewhat provocatively, "Anyway, killing Emperor Chen is a task entrusted to you by His Majesty. It is also your responsibility to mess up. The safety of Zhou, the loss of the court, and even Chen's conspiracy have nothing to do with me. !

But can you just leave all these things alone just because of me and because of your emotions? "

Chu Lixuan looked at her coldly.

When their eyes collided, Ning Muqing was not afraid, and there was a certain emotion in her eyes.

As if to say: You can’t!

As King Ning of the Zhou Kingdom, Chu Lixuan has his own sense of responsibility and belief. No matter how emotional he is, he is always rational and will not do bad things because of impulse.

After all, he was once on the battlefield and led soldiers.

Ning Muqing knew as well as he did that the consequences of acting emotionally and impulsively would cost lives.

Therefore, Chu Lixuan will not be impulsive.

So does she.

They are similar people and will never be carried away by emotions.

So rational that it’s almost cold!
Precisely because they were all of the same kind, Ning Muqing understood Chu Lixuan as well as she understood herself.

Chu Lixuan stared at her determined and provocative look, and felt an unknown fire rising in his heart, which was suppressed by strong reason. It was like the two heavens of ice and fire, with strong hot and cold emotions colliding repeatedly.

But on the surface, he didn't reveal any clues. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, just keep hiding! I want to see how long you can escape for?!"

After that, he shook off her hand, turned around and strode away without looking at her again.

"..."

Ning Muqing stood alone in the room.

She was stunned for a long time, and finally gave a wry smile and murmured, "Otherwise, what can I do? Maintaining the status quo is already the best result."

Chu Lixuan will never understand.
