The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Chapter 533: Extra Thanksgiving Banquet if Line (Opened)

(Warm reminder: My dears, the timeline goes back to the day when the heroine Jiang Wantang left the palace~),

At this time, on the official road heading south, Jiang Wantang was wearing a pink gauze long dress. The gauze hanging from her veil was lifted by the strong wind, revealing half of her beautiful face that was as white as frost and snow.

She galloped along the way, raising a cloud of dust wherever she passed...

When they reached a lush grove, Jiang Wantang suddenly tightened the reins. The white horse neighed loudly and stood up. Its front hooves drew a sharp arc in the air, startling the birds perched on the branches.

"Sir, you've followed me all the way. Aren't you tired?" She said coldly, looking at the empty woods.

As she finished speaking, her fingertips silently stroked the soft sword at her waist, ready for battle.

At that time, a few fallen leaves were silently crushed in the shadow of the forest behind him.

The wind in the forest stops, the shadows of the trees sway...

The next moment, a tall man in a dark blue brocade robe, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, rode a tall horse and slowly stepped out from the woods.

It was none other than Xie Zhiyan, the Minister of the Dali Temple, who was supposed to be recuperating in his residence.

"You're quite alert. Even though I was hiding so well, you were able to find me!"

Xie Zhiyan raised his eyebrows and looked at her, his deep voice carrying a hint of smile.

Jiang Wantang paused and let down his guard.

She slowly turned around and looked at Xie Zhiyan's handsome face and his eyes that seemed to be smiling, and curled her lips.

Jiang Wantang took off the gauze veil on her head, and her charming peach blossom eyes were shining with a bright smile: "It's Master Xie..."

She trailed off with a smile, her already charming eyes unconsciously showing a hint of cunning, and her tone was full of teasing: "Why, is the job of Dali Temple Minister so leisurely?"

"Thank you, sir...Aren't you afraid of losing your position again?"

Xie Zhiyan chuckled softly, tilted his head slightly and smiled at the little fox in front of him, with an unconcealable tenderness in his eyes.

He smiled and said, "Xie has already taken leave to recuperate in the mansion. Now he is just an idler."

Jiang Wantang looked at him with a complicated expression, then suddenly smiled: "The dignified Dali Temple Minister, the most ruthless official in Shengjing, actually has a moment of laziness?"

Xie Zhiyan smiled nonchalantly: "No, Miss Jiang. Being an official is not as free and happy as traveling around the world like a wandering cloud and wild crane."

"As the saying goes, an official robe is more restrictive than a night of drunken pleasure!"

Jiang Wantang was a little surprised by his answer. Her heart tightened, and her eyes became more complicated: "What? You..."

Xie Zhiyan suppressed his smile a little and explained, "I heard that my friend was going south, so I came to see him off."

Jiang Wantang was stunned for a moment, then felt a little relieved.

She thought that Xie Zhiyan was going to resign and retire again.

After a brief moment of shock, Jiang Wantang said calmly, "Even after sending you a thousand miles away, we must eventually say goodbye..."

"Thank you, sir. I'll just send it here."

Xie Zhiyan smiled, but the light in his eyes dimmed a little bit. He said calmly, "Okay."

"Then I'll take you here..."

Just as Jiang Wantang put on her veil and was about to ride away, Xie Zhiyan called her again.

"Jiang Wantang!"

This was the first time Xie Zhiyan addressed her by her name in such a serious and solemn tone.

Jiang Wantang put down the reins and looked back suspiciously.

She saw Xie Zhiyan looking at her with a straight smile, and there was a whirlpool of strong emotions in his deep eyes.

A pair of eyes, so dark that they seemed to be able to suck people in.

Jiang Wantang was stunned for a moment.

Xie Zhiyan smiled faintly and spoke word by word, "Life is like a dream, like morning dew that disappears easily. I only wish you a peaceful and smooth life, to do as you wish, and to be free and unrestrained..."

Jiang Wantang lifted her veil, and a bright smile curved across her beautiful face. She said, "Thank you..."

"Thank you banquet."

The same serious and solemn tone.

Xie Zhiyan felt a sharp pain in his heart, but the smile on his face became more and more obvious. He uttered two words from his thin lips: "Take care..."

Then, he added: "Bon voyage!"

I know you yearn for freedom and don't want to be bound by worldly affairs, so I will accompany you on your last journey as a friend.

Jiang Wantang nodded and said with a smile, "Okay."

"We'll meet again at the thank you banquet later."

Then, without stopping, she rode away on her horse.

Xie Zhiyan stayed where he was, holding the reins, staring straight at Jiang Wantang's gradually receding figure, motionless, as if he wanted to carve her appearance deeply into his eyes.

As he watched, a tiny light flashed in his eyes, and he murmured, "Jiang Wantang, see you later..."

Until the pink figure disappeared completely at the end of the forest, Xie Zhiyan could no longer hold on and suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood...

Then his body suddenly shook and he fell off the horse.

Xie Zhiyan knelt on one knee, covering his heart with his hand in pain, but still stubbornly raised his head, staring at the direction Jiang Wantang left with deep affection and longing, refusing to look away.

Blood flowed down from the lips, drops falling onto the grass on the ground, leaving a glaring red.

"master!"

"master..."

At this moment, Zhang Long, who had been hiding in the dark, suddenly flashed and jumped out.

Zhang Long landed beside Xie Zhiyan and tried to reach out to help him up, but his hand felt cold and damp.

The ink-colored clothes on Xie Zhiyan's back had already been soaked with blood.

The last time, the Xie family discipline, the nine whippings had left no good flesh on his back... (Chapter 483 of the article)

Now, even though his injury has not healed yet, he hurriedly rode his horse over to see him off silently.

Zhang Long lowered his eyes and looked at his blood-stained palm. His eyes instantly turned red. He spoke with a trembling voice: "Master, why are you doing this?"

"Your Majesty has already granted Miss Jiang her freedom. Since you like her so much, why not seize this opportunity to express your feelings to her, and travel the world together as a perfect couple?"

Hearing this, Xie Zhiyan smiled bitterly: "You don't understand."

"Do I have to say it if I like you?"

"What's the point of speaking out now?"

"It will only add to her troubles and guilt."

"I like her because it's my heart's desire and it's my own business. It has nothing to do with her..."

"Since she has no interest in romance, I will keep my love for her hidden in my heart."

"There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees. My heart is filled with joy for you, but you don't know it."

"Liking someone is a beautiful thing and should not become a burden to the other person."

As he spoke, he looked in the direction where Jiang Wantang was leaving, his eyes trembling.

"One slow move ruins the whole game."

"In this life, after all...I missed her..."

After saying that, Xie Zhiyan staggered to his feet, paused for a moment, and then jumped onto his horse.

Afterwards, he said in a deep voice: "Let's go, it's time to go back."

After saying this, he turned his horse around and rode off in the opposite direction of Jiang Wantang...

(Don’t be impatient, my dears, just wait and see~)
