Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1122 The Story of Jidu
  As everyone's eyes focused on Chen He, who was standing quietly in the corner with his sword behind his back, the pressure shifted to him.

To help, or not to help, that is the question.

Chen He was hesitating about this question.

Honglian was not in a hurry and looked at him with a smile, waiting for a satisfactory reply.

After a while, Chen He sighed deeply in his heart, his face became stiff, he put the Thunder Sword back into its sheath and walked towards the Snow Girl.

Obviously, he chose to agree to Honglian's request.

He really didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but he really had no choice.

Don't agree?
  If you don't agree, just wait for a headache!
  Faced with someone like Honglian who can't be beaten, scolded or messed with, you can only choose to obey, or be forced to choose to obey.

Otherwise, people will annoy you to death.

As the saying goes, it is better to do less than to do more, and now one more thing can save countless things. Chen He feels that this deal is still worth doing.

In this way, Chen He Leng walked over and sealed the air pockets of the snow girl, despite the various gazes of everyone, and then silently found a more remote corner to shut himself up.

That is to say, Chen He has always not cared about other people's eyes and is used to being independent. Others may not be able to complete this set of procedures so calmly.

After all...it's so embarrassing!
  Nominally speaking, he was a member of the anti-Qin alliance. Not long ago, less than half a stick of incense, he was fighting to the death with people from the empire, and was a loyal ally of the Mohist family.

As a result, he will rebel in the blink of an eye!

It would be fine if it was just a simple rebellion, but in fact he only temporarily joined the empire to do some work for others. After the work is done, he has to rebel again...

And all operations are carried out in front of everyone.

Not to mention him as the client, everyone in the Mo family felt embarrassed just looking at it, and wished they could dig a tunnel to escape on the spot.

But Honglian didn't care. Whether it was Chen He or anyone else, what did it have to do with Her Royal Highness whether she was embarrassed or not?
  She didn't feel that she was embarrassing Chen He at all. What happened to asking him for a small favor after being friends for so many years - a friendship that suddenly appeared when necessary?

Hong Lian just looked at the snow girl with a smile on her face, her energy completely gone, and unhurriedly untied the rope that tied Duan Murong, and then pushed her away.

"You can go!"

Of course Duan Murong also had her air holes sealed, but it was Hong Lian himself who attacked her.

At this time, she had not yet recovered. Her whole body was weak and she stumbled due to the push. Fortunately, she stabilized her body and did not fall.

Xue Nu winked at Duan Murong, signaling her not to do meaningless actions and to follow Hong Lian's wishes honestly.

Duan Murong turned her head and glanced at Honglian, then at Xue Nu. Finally, without saying a word, she picked up the blue light sword inserted on the ground by Xue Nu, and silently walked to Gao Jianli's side.

At this point, even if she was reluctant to this exchange, she had no ability to stop it and could only accept the reality.

As for dragging the snow girl around, she just refused to exchange this plan... Anyway, Duan Murong would not do such a stupid thing.

Naturally, the snow girl followed Guren's request, walked to her side obediently, and became a hostage.

Honglian did not let her go because of her current weak state and cooperative attitude. She businesslikely reused the rope that tied Duan Murong on the snow girl, replicating the original one.

"Very good!" Guren smiled broadly as she looked at the snow girl who was tied behind her back and looked delicate and pitiful but helpless (she thought).

Following Honglian's set of operations, the atmosphere in the entire hall gradually reached a freezing point and was no longer as hot as before.

Everyone was silently observing what else the subjugated princess wanted to do and what else she would do.

Of course, everyone has different mentality. Some want to watch the fun, some hope she can stop, and some just hope she won't involve innocent people anymore. Hong Lian ignored the gazes of others and just stared at the snow girl with a bright smile.

The snow girl did not show any stage fright. She looked back calmly and asked calmly, "Your Highness, what else do you want?"

"Request? That's not the case." Guren put her hands behind her back and walked slowly around the snow girl, "But I, the princess, want to ask you some questions?"

The snow girl's eyelids trembled, but she still replied calmly, "I will tell you everything I can answer."

"Ha!" Honglian didn't pay attention to the leeway left for her in Xue Nu's words. To be precise, she pretended not to hear Xue Nu's response and asked with a smile to herself, "I heard that you used to be a dancer in the Yan Kingdom. Ji, it is said that your skills are the best among the seven countries?"

After being silent for a while, the snow girl did not answer, but asked, "Why is your highness interested in this kind of news?"

"If you don't deny it, then it's for sure!" Honglian didn't respond to her words and continued to talk to herself, "If you're not the number one dancer in the Seven Kingdoms, why would you join the Mo family?"

The snow girl was completely silent this time, her eyes were lowered, and she didn't know what she was thinking. She only occasionally noticed Guren walking around in front of her out of the corner of her eye.

Guren didn't care about Yuki Onna's silence and continued to speak:

"Oh, I remembered!"

"Back then, King Yan Xi's younger brother, the one named... Yan Chunjun, was assassinated. It was said that the murderer was Wu Ji. What... the number one in Feixue Pavilion is you, right?"

"You killed princes and nobles and survived with the protection of the Mo family, so you joined the Mo family?"

When he said this, Guren happened to circle around again and passed by the snow girl. She took advantage of the situation and deliberately moved closer to her, "Is that so?"

The snow girl silently took half a step back to give some distance, but her pupils became more and more absent-minded.

Honglian's words made her couldn't help but recall the past many years ago.

That period, she felt, was worth remembering for the rest of her life, but it was a deeply regretful past.

Gao Jianli in the distance heard that Honglian had raised this old issue, and felt something was wrong in his heart.

He wanted to stop him, but he didn't have the ability to go up and shut him up. He could only frown, anxiously hoping that nothing would happen again.

Looking at the speechless Yuki-onna, the smile on Guren's face became brighter and brighter, as if this was the scene she expected.

Taking steps again, Honglian continued, "Did the Mo family save you? I don't think so!"

"It seems that Gu Xun happened to be in Jicheng when Lord Yanchun died."

"It's him!"

"He rescued you and handed you over to the Mo family, right?"

The last sentence was said to be a question, but the tone was affirmative.

At the same time, Guren also circled around again and once again stuck to the Yuki Onna.

This time the snow girl did not retreat. Instead, she raised her head, looked directly at Guren, and responded calmly, "Your Highness said this, do you want to help me recall the past?"

"Ha!" Honglian smiled brightly and nodded, "Yes!"

Immediately afterwards, a strange light suddenly bloomed in her eyes, which happened to be reflected in the eyes of the snow girl.
