Embers

After breakfast, Yi Huaizhi and Er Fu went out.Before coming here, his father warned him that this business is very important, and it must not be ruined.

Ember went back to the study to make the next step of planning.

At this time, the Yanshan faction has been subdued, and the follow-up matters are almost handled. It is time to move on to the next goal.

Wangchen faction and Qinghua faction.

These two factions are deadly enemies to each other, and it is relatively easy to subdue them, but which one to start with is still a problem.

The surrender of the Yanshan faction has already made some people aware of precautions. If they do the same thing again in a short period of time, I'm afraid it will not be so easy.But Ember knew that she couldn't delay.

Because he still has one more thing to do.

The current emperor ascended the throne at the age of 13, and has been in power for 40 years now. Human life expectancy is not long, and after a few more years, he will be gone.

And he once had an agreement with Fu Yan.

If the matter on the Demon Cult's side has not been resolved, it will be dealt with. The Demon Cult has no leader, and it is easy to cause troubles if it lacks management for a long time.Just like when Nie Budu accompanied him to the south of the Yangtze River, the Demon Cult had many problems. Fortunately, Mo Yuan and Mo Sui had rich experience and solved them in time.

He couldn't help but frowned and fell into thought.

When Mo Yuan opened the door and came in, he saw his appearance, strode to the desk and asked, "Are you thinking about the next thing?"

Ember raised her eyes slightly, and let out a "hmm".

Hearing this, Mo Yuan lowered his voice and said, "Then what did you plan?"

Ember paused, and slowly spit out four words: "At the same time."

"At the same time?" Mo Yuan was startled.

"Yeah." Ember said calmly, "Use one strategy to attack the two factions at the same time."

Mo Yuan rolled his eyes, that's right, the two factions have always been in conflict, and a little provocation will tear their faces apart. At this time, as long as the Demon Cult uses a little tricks, they can watch the struggle between the two with a cold eye, and finally reap the benefits.

Now what Ember is thinking about is what kind of plan is needed and how to use this plan.

Mo Yuan rubbed his chin: "Then is our movement too fast?"

"It's late." Ember played with the penholder in his hand, "By the time they realize it, there is only one Lishan faction left in Baidao. Although it is powerful, it is not comparable to the Demon Cult, so just hit it. Zhaixing Tower, don’t rush to move yet.”

Mo Yuan praised: "I found that you are more and more like a leader."

Ember's eyes sparkled, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

By the time Yi Huaizhi and Er Fu came back from the silk and satin village, it was already completely dark.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Devil's Cult, and Yi Huaizhi just lifted the curtain when he saw a person standing at the gate with a lamp, wearing a cloak, with an expressionless face.

Yi Huai was taken aback.

Ember looked up at him without saying a word.

Yi Huaizhi got out of the car, hesitated for a moment, walked over, reached out and touched his shirt, the cold fingertips told him that obviously this person had been waiting here for a long time.

"you……"

"Have you had dinner yet?"

Ember's voice was as calm as ever, without any emotion.

He said honestly: "Not yet."

Ember seemed to have expected it a long time ago, nodded slightly, turned around and entered the door, saying: "I have already had someone do it."

Yi Huaizhi silently followed behind him, wanted to say something, thought about the words for a long time, but still couldn't find a suitable sentence, and finally shut up.

He actually wanted to ask if you were waiting for me.

But I also felt a bit abrupt, if someone happened to be here by chance, or if there was something else going on, wouldn't it be presumptuous to ask again.

When he sat down at the dining table, he was surprised to find that Ember also sat down.

"You didn't eat either?"

Ember gave a faint "hmm".

He said again: "It gets dark early in winter in the north, so come back earlier next time."

If the words stop here, Yi Huaizhi will be a fool if he can't understand.

"……Um."

He suddenly felt regretful for going to Ember for the second time.If he hadn't heard Li Mei's words, he wouldn't have so much hesitation, and could accept the tenderness from Ember.

The two finished their meal in silence, Yi Huaizhi went back to his room to rest, and Yu Jin went to the study as usual.

Not long after sitting down, the door of the study was pulled open with a "squeak".

Ember didn't raise her head, she had already judged who was coming by hearing the footsteps.

"Go to bed early." Li Mei put a few books on the shelf next to her, and said softly, "You are already very tired these days."

Ember rubbed her temples, got up and sorted out the information on the table.

Li Mei came over to clean up with him, seemingly casually said: "I'll accompany you tonight, okay?"

Ember paused with her hand, but didn't raise her head.

Li Mei's hand gently covered his, stroking gently.

Ember finally raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes were as black as ink.

Li Mei only felt her heart tremble, and subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but she gritted her teeth and held back.

"Are you nervous?"

Li Mei was stunned, deliberately pretending to be silly and said with a smirk: "How could that be?"

Ember's expression was unpredictable, and he didn't point it out. Suddenly, with a strong hand, he pressed his whole body against the table.

Li Mei froze and struggled a little: "This... this is the study!"

Ember turned a deaf ear, quickly unbuttoned his clothes, and squeezed between his legs with a force.

"Yu... embers!"

"Isn't this what you want?" Ember frowned slightly, the emotions in her eyes were unpredictable, but there was no trace of sarcasm, but Li Mei felt extremely hot, as if all the little thoughts had been seen through by this person.

Ember's foreplay comforting had to be said to be very good, not long after Li Mei softened into a puddle of mud under his body, he panted lightly, half opened his eyes and looked at the man who was about to enter him, A bit of bitterness escaped from the corner of his mouth.

It was obviously a joy, but Ember seemed to be completing a task, and Li Mei didn't feel a trace of his addiction during the whole process.

In fact, he knew what Ember was thinking, and he also knew that he shouldn't do this, which would only make Ember despise him even more.

But he is weak by nature, not as chic as Ye Bozhou, not as elegant as Nie Budu, not even as good as Yi Huaizhi, he has nothing in common with Ye Bozhou.

This is the only way to beg for a moment of tenderness from the embers.

Even he despises himself.

After venting, the embers were pulled away from his body, he struggled to sit up, and whispered: "It's my fault."

Ember calmly handed him a veil, turned and went out without saying anything.

Only Li Mei was left alone in the empty study.

After a long while, he walked up and down from the table silently, feeling liquid slowly flowing down his thighs, smiled wryly, and raised his hands to cover his face.

Three days later, Yi Huaizhi finished his work and left.

On the day he left, Ember personally saw him off.

That day, it was snowing heavily, and after getting into the carriage, Yi Huaizhi couldn't help but lift the curtain, just in time to meet Ember's deep eyes outside.

"Take care." Ember said.

He smiled: "You too, take care."

Then he lowered the curtain and let the carriage take him away, trying his best to ignore the strange emotions in his heart.

Ember looked at the direction the carriage left for a long time, and a paper umbrella appeared above him.

Holding the umbrella, Li Mei looked in the same direction as him, and said softly after a while: "It's time to go."

Ember lowered her eyelids and strode away.

At that time, neither he nor Li Mei thought that they would see Yi Huaizhi again soon.

But at that time, they all thought that Yi Huaizhi and Yi Huaizhi would never meet again in this life.

After the Chinese New Year, Ember turned 22.

Looking at his expressionless face in the mirror, Ember remembered in a trance that Ye Bozhou was also at the same age when they first met.

At that time, he was young and handsome, dressed in white, always with a sly smile in his eyes.

Unlike the person in the mirror, he was already silent at a young age.

At this time, when he thought about everything back then, he suddenly felt that the time was too long, and some of his memories were blurred. He had already begun to not remember the style of Ye Bozhou's clothes at that time.

But he will never forget that gloomy and cold feeling that is gradually warmed up.

If Ye Bozhou was still alive, he would be 37 years old this year.

There is a painting spread out on the table, which shows two people, one is an old man, drinking from a wine jug, and the other is between old and middle-aged, sitting next to him and looking at him, with a smile on his face. With a trace of quiet tenderness.

Seeing the familiar facial features of the old man who was drinking, Ember could not help stretching out his hand, stroking the painting carefully.

The year is over, and Ember's next plan should start.

But before the plan started, a person came to the door first.

Ember swirled a sip of tea in her throat subtly, and looked up at the person in front of her calmly.

"So, I hope you can help me with this..." The man's eyes were red, and he looked straight at Ember, "As long as I can avenge this revenge, I am willing to do anything!"

After a detailed narration, Ember learned that this person was a disciple of the Qinghua Sect, named He Yi, who accidentally overheard a secret three days ago, and thus learned the truth about his father's death.

This starts from 20 years ago.

At that time, the relationship between the Wangchen faction and the Qinghua faction was not as tense as it is now. The two factions once did a business together.Doing business is always for profit, but an accident happened in the process of making profit, and a group of people died.

The death of that person is inseparable from the people on both sides, but no one is willing to take the blame. After all, once this kind of thing is admitted, it will definitely have a bad influence and cause a lot of trouble.

In the end, the two factions decided to keep this matter a secret, and after three to five years, no one would remember it.

Everything was fine at first, but at that time there was a disciple of the Qinghua Sect, who was righteous and upright by nature. After learning about this incident by accident, he refused to agree with this practice, and dared to accuse them of going against the ethics of Baidao. Demonic religion is not as good.

What Bai Dao valued most was reputation, and he was afraid that he would spread the matter. After repeated discussions, he finally decided to secretly execute this person.

That disciple is He Yi's father.

Facing this cruel truth, He Yi felt chills all over his body.He did not expect that the sect that has always been glamorous has such an unknown darkness, and what made him panic even more was what would be waiting for him if it was known that he already knew about it.

It turns out that the so-called white way is just a hypocrite with superficial justice!

Anger and fear surrounded him. After three days of intense ideological struggle, he took the risk and decided to take revenge with the power of the Demon Cult.

Mo Yuan pretended to be casual and glanced at Ember, the corners of Ember's mouth turned up slightly.

It really comes with no effort.
