Chapter 1756 Perhaps He Did It on Purpose

The situation is precarious, hanging by a thread. San Bao was being indecisive and hesitant, which would have angered Li Chen had he not seen the sincerity in San Bao's words. His anger subsided some...Perhaps he did it on purpose.

"You... you! You're being unreasonable and making a desperate attempt to justify yourself!"

Before Jian Xin could finish his angry rebuttal, Gong Huiyu immediately countered, "I'm speaking the truth. Even if you refuse to admit it, the truth is the truth. You know it in your heart, so there's no way you can argue with me."

Jian Xin angrily flared up and said, "If it weren't for the government's inaction, why would there be so many corrupt officials If there weren't those corrupt officials, our parents wouldn't have been persecuted!"

Gong Huiyu retorted, "Then please find me a dynasty without corrupt officials"

Jane's expression suddenly tightened.

"Or even if Li Chen stepped down today and handed over the entire Qin Dynasty to the White Lotus sect, do you really think that just because of those people in the White Lotus sect, they wouldn't become the next corrupt officials Do you expect a glorious dynasty where everyone is a saint"

Gong Huiyu's soul attack left Jian Xin speechless.

Taking a deep breath, Jianxin gritted her teeth and said, "I won't argue with you anymore. Don't even try to change my mind."

"I never intended to change your mind. I said all this hoping you'd gain some perspective and not try to change mine."

Looking at Gong Huiyu's stubborn appearance, Jian Xin was so angry that her teeth ached, but she was helpless.

"Oh!"

Jian Xin sighed deeply and sat down in the chair by her bed, wryly smiling: "You and I are siblings, we only share a resemblance in appearance, and our aspirations and ideals are completely different. But this stubbornness, this insistence on being right, is exactly the same."

“Haven't you forgotten how he forced you to stay by his side in the first place No matter how flowery his words are, it can't change the fact that he has always been using you. Even though he came here just now, his main purpose was for me to protect him in five days. He plans everything meticulously, while you fall into his trap step by step. I feel sorry for you.”

Gong Huiyu glanced at him but said nothing.

Jianxin shook his head and stood up, intending to leave.

But at that moment, Gong Huiyu spoke again.

"No."

"What's missing" Jian Xin turned her head in confusion.

He said he would control me with medicine, keep me by his side for ten years. I agreed out of the difficulties I faced at the time, but until just now, when I ingested the relic and purified my whole body, I realized that what he gave me was just ordinary candy beans, with no toxicity or side effects whatsoever. I always thought that the royal family had hidden some treasure that could control people without being detected. Now it seems that everything was just self-deception.

Jian Xin was stunned, a flash of Li Chen's face crossing his mind. On the surface, he appeared handsome and clean-cut, but deep down, Jian Xin knew he had an ulterior motive. He immediately said: "Perhaps he did it on purpose..."

"Okay."

Gong Huiyu interrupted Jianxin's words again, with an expression on her face that clearly showed she didn't want to hear anything. She said, "If you really want to help me, do something for me."

From childhood to adulthood, Gong Huiyu had never asked Jian Xin for help once.

So facing this unprecedented request, Jian Xin's heart was filled with excitement and joy, which greatly improved his mood.

"You said, as long as I can do it."

Gong Huiyu looked seriously at Jian Xin and said, "You leave immediately to protect him."

This sentence cuts like a knife.

Each stab landed in Jianxin's heart, one after another.

Jian Xin's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Gong Huiyu, stammering, "I'm your brother! We are blood relatives, he's just an outsider!"n any previous emperor. He has ambition, great ambition, a wolfish ambition to conquer the world. I like this ambition of his; only then can I fight with gusto without worrying about the court seeking...
