Chapter 783 I understand what you mean

The nightmare ends at the heartache, with waves of desolation and sadness lingering on.

Yan Yu woke up suddenly, and later realized that he was sweating all over.

"Little sister, kill me?"

"She said that the stars had not appeared, and my brother was assassinated and died on the cliff. The person who assassinated me was actually her?"

"Lord Tang said that the Purple Star will not help those who perish. In other words, I must be alive to return to the modern era."

"Perhaps, the little sister didn't know this and mistakenly thought that even though I had no life, I could still travel through time, so she acted so well and killed me?"

"If it was just a misunderstanding, why did she hide the truth and only say that I was on the verge of death?"

"Did she really approach me just to lie dormant?"

"It was like this in my previous life, what about this life?"

"I remember she said that she was good at using honey traps. So, is her kindness to me just a honey trap?"

Regardless of the fact that it was still dark, Yan Yu quickly put on her clothes, ran to Yuexi Mansion, and knocked on her little sister's door.

Ning Yunxi was also awakened. Hearing the urgent knocks on the door, she quickly put on her coat and ran to open the door.

"Brother?"

"Why are you here again?"

Yan Yu frowned and looked serious.

"In your previous life, you finally chose them and gave up on me, right?"

Ning Yunxi was suddenly shocked and pale with fear.

"Brother, you...you are thinking about your past life again?!"

Yan Yu's expression became more serious.

"I ask you, are you choosing them over me?"

Recalling her past life, Ning Yunxi still felt guilty. She lowered her eyes and spoke sadly.

"Yes."

Yan Yu's heart was shocked, and a trace of sadness covered his brows.

"May I know why?"

Ning Yunxi was totally speechless.

"Because...because..."

"As my brother said, you are in the 22nd century, you have a house, a car, and a decent job. You have everything you need in life. You are not as good as the rich, but you are better than the poor."

"If they fail, they will be left with nothing."

"So, I thought, let go of the tiny affection between you and me, and make all people happy. I think this is doing good things, for justice. Even if we leave this world, we will have a clear conscience."

"Isn't it?"

Yan Yu was indignant and furious.

"That's easy to say, you have a clear conscience!"

"Where is my heart? How can I have a clear conscience?"

"Why should I make them happy just because I live a carefree life? Do I owe them anything? Where does this fallacy come from?!"

"The friendship between us is insignificant to you. Can you just give it up at will?"

Ning Yunxi explained urgently.

"No, brother, I haven't thought about it that way."

Yan Yu was filled with anger and roared loudly.

"You just finished speaking! You said you haven't thought about it?"

Ning Yunxi continued to explain.

"I mean……"

Unwilling to listen to her argument, Yan Yu interrupted her harshly.

"Let me ask you again, do you know that if I die, I will not be able to return to the modern era?"

Ning Yunxi answered truthfully.

"I know."

Yan Yu was extremely surprised and couldn't believe what he heard.

"You know? You actually know?"

Ning Yunxi's eyes were filled with regret and endless shame.

"In my previous life, my brother emphasized this, so I..."

Yan Yu was filled with grief and indignation and interrupted her again.

"I have emphasized this, so you take it as a precaution?"

His heart was filled with gloom.

"How have I wronged you that you treat me like this?"

"For you, I have given everything. I am willing to be used as your pawn. I long for you to spare my life and hope that you will not abandon me."

"But why, why don't you want me?!"

"What reason do you have to betray me for those who hurt you?!"

Seeing him crying, Ning Yunxi hurriedly took his hands.

"Brother, please don't be sad. Please, give me a chance."

"After I was reborn, I changed. I..."

Yan Yu was angry and broke free from her hand.

"If you change it, does that mean you are hiding the truth and deceiving me at will?"

Ning Yunxi tried hard to explain.

"that is because……"

Yan Yu was heartbroken and stepped back repeatedly, keeping a distance from her.

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it."

"I understand what you mean."

"You changed it because you couldn't bear to give up my love and dedication, not because you felt guilty and wanted to start over with me."

"Ning Yunxi, in your eyes, am I a lowly person? Why do I have to run to you, wag my tail and beg for mercy, just because you beckon me with your finger?"

"If I had known you were such a person, I would never marry you even if I died!"

He was overwhelmed with grief and walked away with his skirt cut off.

Ning Yunxi chased after him in panic, but was turned away by him.

"Brother..."

After receiving the imperial edict, Wen Yan walked out of the guest room and hurried to the east gate of Prince Di Jin's mansion.

"Princess, may you be blessed with peace and happiness."

"Your Majesty orders you not to enter."

"Disobeying the order will bring disaster to the whole family. I only ask Princess to understand my difficulties."

Ning Yunxi explained the situation in a concise and to the point manner.

"There's a misunderstanding between my brother and me, and I want to explain it clearly."

"Master Wen, don't worry. Let me in. Nothing will happen. My brother won't be angry with you."

Wen Yan replied respectfully.

"Princess, please understand. The prince is angry. I am extremely terrified."

Ning Yunxi earnestly requested for leniency.

"As long as I explain it clearly, he will calm down."

"Master Wen, please be at ease. Even if my brother blames you, I will stop you."

Wen Yan first comforted her and then made a suggestion.

"Princess, don't worry. If it's just a misunderstanding, you can slowly explain it to us. Why rush it now?"

"In my humble opinion, my nephew Lin Mu is quite close to the prince. I would like to ask the princess to condescend to take the jade and go to the Lin Mansion to ask him to meet the prince and persuade him first."

"Excuse me, Princess, what do you think?"

Ning Yunxi suddenly realized something.

"Lord Wen is right. It was me who was rash and abrupt."

Wen Yan treated him humbly.

"Princess, your words are too serious."

"My nephew is naughty and disobedient. If the princess is unhappy, she can send someone to call me over. I will order him to obey the princess's instructions."

Ning Yunxi lowered her eyes to show respect for her elders.

"Lord Wen is too modest."

"Thank you, Lord Wen, for your brilliant idea to solve this problem."

Wen Yan saluted.

"Princess, you're welcome."

"I am here to see the princess off."

The night was not over yet, and considering the differences between men and women, it would be against etiquette to go directly to see Lin Mu, so Ning Yunxi went to Gao's mansion nearby and asked Qiu Bi to accompany her.

Just like that, Qiu Bi was awakened by Ning Yunxi.

Seeing that it was the princess, she was not annoyed at all, but just worried.

The princess has always been considerate and thoughtful. If it weren't for the difficulties, I would never have disturbed her sleep.

"What happened?"

Ning Yunxi briefly recounted the conversation between her and her brother.

After hearing this, Qiu Bi's nervous expression suddenly turned into relaxation.

"Princess, don't worry. This is easy to do. You don't need to ask Mulang for help."

Ning Yunxi looks happy.

"Do you have a way to convince my brother?"

Qiu Bi reported this to the emperor.

"I have no idea."

"But, father has a solution."

"He had instructed me some time ago that if the princess had a dispute with the prince due to conflicts in her past life, I would tell my father and he would help."

Ning Yunxi was confused.

"Ah? Master Gao had anticipated this?"
