From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 660

The winter in Jizhou is very cold. Li Yu'an handed over a bowl of ginger soup and blinked.

Zhou Yuan held the bowl, his hands warmed up a lot, and then handed the bowl to her mouth.

Li Yu'an took a sip and smiled, "No need, I am immune to cold and heat."

"Who isn't."

Zhou Yuan said, "I am a master after all, this little cold is nothing, there is no need to bother to make ginger soup in the future."

Li Yu'an said, "It's not me who made it, your maid made it."

"Ah?"

Zhou Yuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "If you really let her be a maid, I'm afraid she will cry again."

Li Yu'an sighed and said, "Are you still afraid of her crying? Anyway, you two are already fighting to the death, it doesn't matter what you do. It's just a little Master, what are you going to do with Daichan? She is quite pitiful.

Zhou Yuan said: "Wasn't I pitiful at the beginning? I fled to the south alone, and she chased me in the deep mountains and old forests."

"Of course, it is meaningless to talk about these past events. We have different identities and different positions, so it is difficult for her and I to go back to the past. Let's go as fate will arrange."

Li Yu'an smiled and said: "Are you really so open-minded?"

Zhou Yuan said: "Then what should I say? I can't brag that I have seen through everything and everything is under control, right?"

"Emotions are very strange. They are unreasonable and lawless. They are ethereal and illusory, but they can really affect people."

"I am too lazy to think about how to deal with her. As long as the world is peaceful and everyone is happy, then any way of dealing with her will have a good result."

Li Yu'an agreed and nodded: "That's right. After all, I never thought of following you. Even after recovering the Central Plains, I valued you more for practical benefits. Who knows, now I have put myself in it."

"You helped me restore the country, but you haven't done anything yet. I myself Lost yourself first, what a pity. "

Zhou Yuan hugged her and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? Sincerity is always a killer move. We are called mutual support."

Li Yu'an pressed his mouth and said with a smile: "Don't say such words to coax me. I'm going to accompany Daichan tonight. She is good at martial arts. It's not good to run around."

Zhou Yuan nodded, watched her leave the room, and then couldn't help shouting: "Virgin Mary sister!"

Li Yu'an turned around and said: "I don't know, don't ask."

She walked away, and Zhou Yuan lay down and fell into deep thought.

Why did Huang Taiji do this? How did he win?

After being together for too long, the Virgin Mary sister had enough tacit understanding to guess what he was going to ask, so she simply didn't bother to care.

And Zhou Yuan went through the map several times in his mind, and he couldn't think of any means of the other party.

Is it just to save Wanyan Daichan?

No, Huang Taiji has a chance to leave, even if he cuts off his arm now.

Zhou Yuan fell asleep while thinking.

The next morning, he got up to practice and continue to consolidate his cultivation.

Fortunately, there was a suitable sparring partner in front of him.

Holding a long sword, he looked at Wanyan Daichan in front of him and said in a deep voice: "I have been practicing "Pure Yang Wuji Gong" for nearly three years, and I have paid countless efforts and sweat to finally achieve today's achievements."

"Why do you think I keep you by my side? There is no other reason, it's just because I'm not afraid of you. You are not my opponent at all."

"Watch me!"

Zhou Yuan thrust out with a sword, and his internal force surged with it. The long sword trembled lightly, and there was a sword light.

Smoke and dust flew around, and it was washed away by his sword intent.

Wanyan Daichan gritted her teeth, raised her right hand, and a black light appeared in her palm, like a black moon, and slapped Zhou Yuan directly.

Zhou Yuan flew backwards and hit the ground. His chest hurt so much that blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Crazy woman! Are you really going to kill me?"

He was so angry that he stamped his feet anxiously.

Then he looked at Li Yu'an and said, "Sister Saint, why didn't you stop her!"

Li Yu'an spread her hands and said, "She didn't use her full strength, so she can't cause you any serious harm."

"You haven't used your full strength yet?"

Zhou Yuan looked at Wanyan Daichan and said, "Come again! You are not allowed to use your internal force this time!"

After a while, Zhou Yuan said, "Let me use one hand!"

Then, Zhou Yuan shouted, "You are not allowed to use both hands!"

Then, Zhou Yuan was kicked away.

"Practice? Practice shit!"

Zhou Yuan threw his sword to the ground and sat aside to sulk.

Wanyan Daichan looked at Li Yu'an, a little at a loss.

Li Yu'an was already laughing so hard that she could hardly stand up straight. She couldn't help but say, "My little nephew thinks he is on the same level as you. You should at least give him some face."

EndYan Daichan's face was gloomy, and she whispered: "Holy Mother, why are you and him so good?"

This question stumped Li Yu'an.

She thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "I don't care, so it's good."

"Don't care?"

"Well..."

Li Yu'an said: "He doesn't care about my age, doesn't care that I keep urging him to help me restore the country, and I don't care about his fickleness, and don't care that he has not fulfilled his promise..."

"Because I don't care, I am casual, so there are no conflicts, only joy."

Speaking of this, she laughed: "Ha! Poor Guan Miaoshan in the palace doesn't understand this, and she cares about everything, so she caused such an embarrassing situation."

"If she were like me, I'm afraid she would have given birth to a basket of princes."

Wanyan Daichan said: "I know what you want to say, but I can't do it like you, I have my mission."

Li Yu'an's smile suddenly withered.

She said coldly: "If I want to mention the mission, I should kill you now. The Jurchen cavalry destroyed my Goryeo and exterminated my country. Should I take revenge?"

"If you mix personal feelings with national hatred and family feuds, you will never be free, Daichan, I have met those women of Zhou Yuan, but none of them is stronger than you."

"You are too cowardly in terms of feelings."

Wanyan Daichan's face changed, and she immediately shouted: "Cowardly? I am cowardly? You don't know how much I believed in him in Shanhaiguan! I gave him the golden sword! What did I get in return?"

Li Yu'an said: "The golden sword and you really Is it related? Maybe, but it's more of a political relationship. "

"Have you ever separated feelings from politics? Have you ever separated the two? What does the hatred between the Jurchens and the Jin Dynasty have to do with your personal feelings with Zhou Yuan? What does the hatred between Goryeo and the Jurchens have to do with our feelings?"

"I'm pretty good to you because we've worked together for so many years. Have I considered other things?"

She sat down, looked at the bright sun in the sky, and said slowly: "Everyone has shackles on their bodies. Zhao Jianjia has them, her slight superiority and pride, but now she still has ?”

“Xue Ningyue also has shackles. She is obedient and a good girl. She doesn’t even dare to refuse her parents’ proposal to marry her off as a concubine. But she dares to secretly give herself to Zhou Yuan and becomes Zhou Yuan’s first woman.”

“What about Qu Ling? Did she care about the authority of her family? She dared to offer herself to Zhou Yuan in the most difficult and dangerous time, just to bind the Qu family to help Zhou Yuan.”

“Cai Ni is your apprentice, so I don’t need to say more, right?”

“If a person wants to get his own feelings, he needs to pay something, and the most important thing is to have the courage to break his own shackles.”

“ Do you think I didn't break the shackles? I am his uncle, a real uncle."

"You are really not as good as Bai Xue, the daughter of a businessman. At least she is willing to play tricks. Are you willing to do that?"

At this point, she laughed softly and shook her head, "But Daichan, you didn't do anything. You don't even have the courage to admit this feeling, let alone fight for it."

"You only complain in your heart, feel wronged, and think that he has deceived you. Ha, it's really interesting."

These words are like a knife, ruthlessly cutting open Wanyan Daichan's heart.

Her face was pale, and she couldn't help choking and said, "But can I be blamed for this? He is a general of the enemy country, and I am a shaman princess. We are destined to be in opposition."

Li Yu'an said, "It is political opposition, but not emotional opposition. When you think it through, you will know what to do."

"And the reason why I tell you this is just because I am free and easy by nature, and I can't stand seeing you being so twisted."

"You can be twisted, but don't be twisted in front of my little nephew. It will ruin his mood, and I have to find a way to coax him."

"Who is willing to make ginger soup for him in the middle of winter!"

After saying that, she snorted softly, strode over here, and saw that he was looking at the map, so she didn't disturb him, but just sat quietly.

Looking at their affectionate and peaceful appearance, Wanyan Daichan pondered over what she had just said and couldn't help sighing.
