Hua Ruge stopped and turned to look at him.
At this time, Jun Tianxia's usually deep eyes flashed with hope.
Hua Ruge reached out to brush the hair that hung down his forehead, and said indifferently: "I thought that Monarchs knew their limits."
The expression on her entire face was light, not intentionally distant, but the cold look in her eyes was enough to express her attitude.
After that adventure, the two of them had become close friends, and she had treated him as a friend.
In the face of his sudden pursuit, she did not reveal any harsh words because she knew Jun Tianxia was a smart person.
He should know what she was thinking.
And she knew he understood.
Jun Tianxia looked at Hua Ruge's calm appearance and smiled bitterly in his heart. Even if he was inexperienced, he knew what it meant for a woman to be able to maintain absolute calm in front of a man.
She had never held him in her heart, much less strummed her heartstrings.
"You haven't answered my question." The Pain Color in Jun Tianxia's eyes flashed, and he continued to ask.
How could he not understand? It was just that because he liked it too much, he did not want to let go.
"I'm just assuming a life, so the question doesn't mean anything to me." Hua Ruge answered without even thinking.
Jun Tianxia closed his eyes. He was an absolutely rational person, but he never thought that he would one day ask such a stupid question.
At that moment he heard footsteps, and soon felt a warmth on his shoulders. A warm cloak covered his shoulders.
His body tensed, and Hua Ruge's voice sounded beside his ears: "I know that I might not need a Monarch, but I still want to say something. I'm sorry."
With that, she turned and left.
Even if Jun Tianxia didn't look at it, he could imagine how determined that frail and frail figure was in the snow night.
He tensed up, but could only slowly relax. He wanted to grab hold of her, but he was powerless in the end.
She was right. He should know his limits.
Otherwise, with her personality, she probably wouldn't even be a friend.
When Hua Ruge returned to the Guangde Palace, he found that they had dispersed for an unknown period of time. Lan Bing'er had long since retreated to the room behind the screen, and was still bringing along the drunk Su Nianxia.
"Elder sister, where did you go?"
Lan Bing'er asked worriedly the moment she entered the door.
"I didn't expect it to be so late when I went out to sit for a while." Hua Ruge said, his expression normal.
Lan Bing'er nodded and said, "Then let's go."
On the other hand, Su Nianxia was still unconscious on the table.
Hua Ruge had no choice but to help her up and walk.
Su Nianxia drank a lot, and even when he returned to the Priestess Palace, he did not wake up. In the end, Hua Ruge and Lan Bing'er sent her back to her room.
After exiting the room, because it could already be considered to be over the age of twenty, most of the lights had already gone to sleep. There was no longer the noise outside, and the Priestess Palace s were exceptionally quiet.
Lan Bing'er looked at the dark sky and said: "Elder sister, are you leaving?"
"Just these two days. There are still a lot of books that I haven't memorized." Hua Ruge thought for a while.
Lan Bing'er knew that he could not stay any longer, so he said: "Then I'll prepare something for Big Sis to eat."
"You're still the most considerate one. I will come down to see you in three months." Hua Ruge laughed.
Lan Bing'er calculated for a moment, and said: "There's less than seven months left until the one year agreement. I presume that elder sister should prepare to set off the next time you go down the mountain."
"Yeah, it's almost time." As Hua Ruge spoke, his heart relaxed, but he still became gloomy.
Whether or not they could save Tuoba Rui would depend on the people from the Eastern Ocean.
She took a deep breath and said, "I'm tired. Let's go to sleep. You should go to sleep as well."
Lan Bing'er watched her figure disappear and couldn't help but let out a sigh. Although Hua Ruge seemed to be carefree and unrestrained, he was actually bearing with more pain in his heart than anyone else.
While she seemed to have a lofty status, she was actually locked in this Priestess Palace and unable to move, unable to do anything even if she wanted to help.
Because she had slept late that night, when Hua Ruge woke up the next day, he had already eaten lunch. She had washed up to eat, and discovered that Su Nianxia, who had a hangover, had also woken up.
Lan Bing'er brought out the dishes with a smile.
Hua Ruge looked at the two of them, and shook his head: "Even the bed isn't bad, is life still fun?"
Su Nianxia grabbed a bun and took a bite. He looked at her and asked: "Big sister Ruge, where did you go last night? I've been waiting a long time for you to come back. "
"It's too stuffy in the house. I went out to drink." Hua Ruge also began to eat.
Su Nianxia nodded his head, "That's right, Palace Feast is not fun at all.
"You were the one who wanted to go." Hua Ruge rolled his eyes at her.
"Isn't that because of Jun Tianxia?" Su Nianxia said in a very wronged manner, "Who knew that his health was so poor, he actually went back to rest."
Lan Bing'er thought for a while, then said: "Oh right, Xia Xia, didn't you go out this morning to gather some news?"
Hua Ruge didn't even need to ask to know that Su Nianxia was definitely worried about the marriage alliance.
Su Nianxia laughed when he heard this: "I went to the Hanging Palace and heard that this morning, Prince of Yutang entered the palace with his sister. However, he didn't look too good when he came out, and it was said that he was about to set off for the Yutang soon."
"It seems like the Monarch has refused." Lan Bing'er nodded and said, "I have good news."
Hua Ruge also nodded his head, but in the end he did not show any surprise on his face.
Su Nianxia looked at her and said, "Elder sister Ruge, you should have guessed it a long time ago."
"That's not difficult. With Da Yu's national power, there's no need for a marriage alliance to consolidate power. Under these circumstances, no one wants to place a nail in their harem." Hua Ruge raised his head and said.
Su Nianxia suddenly said after hearing that, "That makes sense."
"But it's not that easy for them to leave." Hua Ruge thought for a while and said: "If I'm not wrong, then that Monarch is going to play big."
Lan Bing'er's pupils constricted, her expression somewhat heavy.
Su Nianxia thought for a moment and said: "Big Sister Ru Ge said that we are going to war?"
"When I was seizing the Destructive Flame, I passed by the area where the Da Yu meets the Yutang. The Da Yu has already deployed quite a few troops within the city, if nothing unexpected happens, then it should be soon." Hua Ruge said indifferently.
"Why must we fight? Is it not good to live in peace?" Su Nianxia obviously did not agree with his actions.
Hua Ruge's thoughts surfaced in his mind, thinking back to when Jun Tianxia had watched the great battle with his Profound Beast Forest. He said that the only way to end the war forever was to decide who would be the victor.
Currently, the continent was divided into five countries. War had broken out for many years and countless people had died. This was indeed not an ideal situation.
If it could really be unified into one, in exchange for a peaceful and prosperous world, it would also be a good choice.
