Chapter 125: Only A Confession


(1) 思 (si) - to think, a thought
(2) 一生 (yisheng) - a lifetime



Li Wei Yang was writing, writing very seriously although her characters have always been not that very beautiful. Because she had not been educated in the previous life, although she worked hard for a long time after, calligraphy is a skill to start learning at a young age. After carefully writing the word "thinking"(1), Li Wei Yang looked at it carefully for a long time, and shook her head.

"Xiaojie has been practicing calligraphy today!"

"Yeah, I heard that today was the day of Jiang Fourth Shaoye’s execution. A lot of people went to see it!"

"Yes, I thought Xiaojie was going too!"

"Hush, be quiet! Xiaojie didn't mean to go!" Mo Zhu and Bai Zhi whispered to each other.

Li Wei Yang raised her head and glanced at them, and said, "Gossiping in front of me?" Do these two yatous think she is completely deaf? She basically heard everything!

Bai Zhi smiled and said: "Xiaojie, you didn't want to go to the execution site to watch?" Watching the enemy die is a very popular thing, why is Xiaojie not interested at all?

Li Wei Yang wrote another stroke, saying lightly: "What's so good about watching the killing of people?" Besides, the person killed must not have been Jiang Nan.

Both Bai Zhi and Mo Zhu looked at her with strange eyes. Li Wei Yang smiled slightly and said, "Zhao Yue, please tell them."

Zhao Yue answered: "Xiaojie arranged people at the entrance of the prison, and one night three days ago, someone secretly entered the prison and replaced Jiang Nan."

The other yatous expressed shock on their faces, and Bai Zhi quickly said: "The Jiangs are so bold!"

The imperial prison is different from ordinary prisons; it is the place where high-profile detainees are held and Jiang Nan was someone His Majesty personally sent in there. No one is allowed to visit, let alone allow any idle people to approach. Li Wei Yang smiled slightly and said, "Who can go to prison without the permission of His Majesty?"

Mo Zhu surprised: "Xiaojie means ..."

"I didn't mean anything." Li Wei Yang blinked. The emperor seized the Jiangs’ military of 200,000 and had already ordered the Jiangs’ children to return to the capital for mourning. If they really killed Jiang Nan, then they were forcing the Jiangs to stage an overthrow. So Jiang Nan was replaced by someone, with the Crown Prince’s assistance and the Emperor’s acquiescence. Deals within the royal family had always been this sloppy. Whatever goes wrong, as long as they are willing, everything is done to maintain the stability of the imperial power. This is not surprising. Li Wei Yang had expected it early in the morning but she just wanted to confirm it.

"Xiaojie, we can find a way to expose them!" Bai Zhi gritted his teeth; she really hated Jiang Nan's opinionated virtue.

Li Wei Yang smiled quietly: "Although Jiang Nan is alive, he can only live in the shadow for the rest of his life, not to mention he can’t go back to the battlefield to build a career. His life is a hundred times more painful than death." With Jiang Nan's domineering and arrogant character, to abandon his identity as the fourth son of the Jiangs and to give up the name of General Wuwei to become a man in the city without telling anyone his identity and he can't inherit the glory of the Jiangs, everything has been ruined for him. Li Wei Yang thought it was very beautiful.

For Jiang Nan, this is the cruelest punishment in the world.

"But if he comes to trouble you again?" Bai Zhi was a little worried.

Li Wei Yang smiled a little: "He wants to but the Jiang family would watch him wholeheartedly and prevent him from appearing in front of me again. I think he has been sent out of the city now.” Of course, he must not be sent to the prosperous big city but to the countryside where the bird does not shit. They will definitely send people to watch him so that he can no longer cause any troubles.

Bai Zhi nodded and wanted to say something. There was a voice outside, "This yatou, don't you even understand? To keep Jiang Nan alive, is to keep a hold of evidence on the Jiangs. When this is revisited in the future, we can add on to their accusations with one stroke."

Li Wei Yang looked up and saw it was Li Min De standing at the door. His eyes slanting, his eyes overflowing with jet black and his neutral smile gave off a dazzling look. Even though it was a familiar face, Li Wei Yang felt that his body was inexplicably a bit tough and strong, making her frown lightly.

Li Min De was also staring at her. Because it was summer, the ice basin was specially placed in the house but still it did not decrease the amount of heat. Li Wei Yang wore a cherry-colored flower dress with a snow white face and she was extraordinarily glamorous. When she looked up, the white jade tassel butterfly on the neckline flickered slightly, almost enchanting his eyes.

Li Min De's eyes were so soft and gentle: "What is it, why are you practicing calligraphy?" He walked up to her and lifted up a word for a closer look. Li Wei Yang asked, "How is it?"

When Li Min De smiled, the smile was as dazzling as a bouquet of flowers blooming in spring. Bai Zhi and Mo Zhu looked at each other and couldn’t help but retreated half a step. Third Gongzi dared not look at it more, fearing that it will hook his soul away. When Zhao Yue came in, she retreated out to talk to her brother.

"Here, the strokes are not strong enough." Li Min De held her with his hands, as if to teach her how to write with his hands. Li Wei Yang was stunned and then quickly pulled her hands back without trace: "Aren't you going out? Why did you come back this early?"

Li Min De smiled and took a jade hairpin from his arms: "I saw it outside, I think it is very suitable for you."

The jade hairpin was made of a piece of jadeite, and the finely carved hairpins were embellished with pearls. The green and white colors were interesting and extremely beautiful. Li Wei Yang was enchanted by the blueness and then said: "For me?"

Li Min De nodded and wanted to help her put it on but Li Wei Yang suddenly stopped his hand.

Li Min De didn't move, but held the hairpin in his hand tightly, his eyes fixed on her face, a strange look appeared in his eyes, "What's wrong ......"

Li Wei Yang's back was straight and her pure face vigorously concealed something. After a while, she smiled and said: "Min De, a jade hairpin like this can't be given away casually, it's much more inappropriate for me."

"My intentions, you have always known." Li Min De looked at her eyes, they were dark and transparent that he could almost see his face. His heart was hot and eager as he blinked towards her.

Seeing that something was wrong, Bai Zhi and Mo Zhu quietly retreated.

"I …..." Li Wei Yang was stunned to meet his enthusiastic eyes.

However, Li Min De looked at her seriously and then revealed a thin smile like the sunlight shining on the ice. It looked very warm yet in fact it was full of anxiety: "You’ve asked me before, who do I like? Now I will tell you the answer, do you want to hear it? "

Li Wei Yang was almost speechless. At this time, what she said seemed to be wrong.

"You once said that you will stay by my side anyway and never leave." Li Min De stared at her brightly.

"......" Li Wei Yang was surprised. It was a matter of a few years ago, but they were consolation words after Third Furen passed away. But she didn’t expect that the young man in front of her still remembers it until now.

"Are those promises still true?" He asked anxiously.

Li Wei Yang was dumb for a moment: "What I said …... naturally will not change. But ... but I can't accept your intentions---" Although it is difficult, she should still make it clear, right?

Li Min De's handsome face started to turn blue and began to turn white again. He seemed to realize what was challenging and asked awkwardly, "...... what you once promised …… was just a joke?" Unconsciously, he squeezed his fist slowly.

Li Wei Yang looked at his expression and couldn't say anything negative. However, there was no way to answer yes. She lowered her head and slowly pushed the jade hairpin back to him, "This …... you should give it to a girl you like."

"You!" Li Min De looked at her with a trace of disbelief.

"This …... this is something for the person you like. Giving it to me is very inconvenient, so I can't accept it no matter what."

"The things I gave you will never be taken back!" Just like his heart, Li Min De said word by word.

"Min De ......"

Li Min De's chest swelled hurriedly, "At that time, you rescued me from the water, and you said that you will be my friend and my family from now on. After Mother died, you stayed with me and told me you won’t abandon me and will stay with me all your life? Now, has everything changed? Why? Because I am no longer the helpless Li’s Third Shaoye in the past? Because you think I am no longer your responsibility, so do you want to abandon me? You didn’t take me seriously, did you? You asked me to find the woman I like, and I am telling you, I only like you! "

Li Wei Yang looked at him and opened her mouth but in the end, she couldn't say anything. It’s not that she doesn’t want to love anyone but she didn’t have the ability to love him. She couldn’t accept anyone. Min De is a very good person, very good. At the most difficult time, he always stood by her side, but she couldn’t love him. She wasn’t prepared to accept anyone this lifetime. Her heart is already decayed and will not beat at all but he is different. He is still very young, so smart, so handsome, so talented, many girls like him. She can’t reciprocate so how can she give him hope …...

"I know you won't love someone, but can’t you allow me---to love you?" Li Min De's face oozes with a bitter smile. I wonder if it is his own illusion but he feels that the body is moving away from himself. Never in his heart, There was panic and fear surging forward. He suddenly stepped forward, almost using all his strength, and took her hand.

Li Wei Yang was stunned for a moment but did not think about breaking free.

"I know, Tuoba Yu likes you, and Tuoba Zhen also really wants to have you, but you have never liked them. Then for me, since you have not explicitly rejected them, why should you push me away …..." His eyes were red, the expression in his eyes slowly faded away and gradually turned dimmer, "In your heart, I am the easiest person to abandon …..."

Li Wei Yang froze for a long time and ultimately broke free from him. She finally sighed softly, the guilt and uneasiness in her eyes kept surging, "You are a fool! I don't know how many women will like you, why should you like me?! When you know I can’t accept it!"

Li Min De looked at her and reached out to touch her face yet touched empty air. A scorched look flashed on his face, and finally he laughed out loud. His dark, soft eyes were like the reflection in the mirror where it showed her face slowly: "You wouldn't even let me like you silently?"

"All I have for you is just affection from a family." Li Wei Yang's heart was sour, her face was cold and warm for a while. She opened her mouth gently, and the bittersweet taste spread in her mouth. She couldn't help but grind her teeth to reply. Clever as she was but why did she not know that this young man who has always been like a younger brother in her own heart may have changed his feelings towards her.

At first she thought it was just a simple fascination for him ...... But how did it turn into this?

There are a lot of words that she can’t say and explain. She only wanted to drive him away. But in private, she couldn’t bear to let this young man go, maybe it’s because her heart is also nostalgic for warmth, but she still can’t accept it.

"Am I delusional, aren't I?" While watching her say the words of family affection, he suddenly laughed so much that his eyes were filled with tears.

She just looked at him silently, and an embarrassing silence spread across the room.

After a long time, a very long time, his voice became extremely calm in vain: "If you like quiet, I will try to be well-behaved in front of you; if you like gentle people, then I will force myself to be gentle; you don't like others to force you, I will like you silently, guard you, even if you never accept my feelings, I can guard you for life. As long as you don’t reject me, I can keep dreaming. But my heart is also flesh. I can be wounded and hurt. You know everything yet you pretend not to know and now use the words of family affection to summarize everything. Then what I did for you, what do those mean, what do they mean? In your heart, you’ve hoarded space for a lot, revenge, hatred …... when will it ever be for yourself, for me ...... "

The pain in his eyes shocked Li Wei Yang. She thought …... after a while, he would let go of this meaningless obsession, but she didn't expect him to think about his life for a long time. How long can he live? How can he say these two words(2) easily?

No, you must make him wake up! Li Wei Yang shook his head and said, "Min De, I will treat you as the most important person in my life, but not a lover. Wake up and take a good look around. There are too many girls around you who like you. You won’t lack someone like me. We are all relatives from beginning to end, this relationship will not change, you will not leave me, I will not leave you, but I don’t want your love, is this bad? "

Li Min De looked at her and his eyes were gradually drenched with despair: "Yes, never separate, but you said, you don't want me to love you."

Li Wei Yang cruelly said, "Yes, I don't want you to love me, and never want you to love me! You just have to treat me as family!" Such a relationship is the most stable and will never change. Like Min Zhi will never betray her, Tan-shi will never betray her, only such feelings are the most sincere and will not change easily! "You just need to think about it now and when you think it through, let's talk about it then!" Li Wei Yang said, returning the jade hairpin to him and turning to leave.

Li Min De's dark eyes kept staring at her, watching her leave. At the moment when the door was covered, a gold vase was suddenly swept to the ground by him, "Wala---" A loud noise sounded and the vase crashed into pieces.

He still stood there, his eyes slowly changing into ice cold. He firmly held the jade hairpin in his palm. The pain and uncomfortable waves in his eyes could be seen. Things given away can be returned but how about his heart, can it be returned so simply?

After this incident, Li Wei Yang felt uneasy and avoided Li Min De for several days. But soon, she discovered that things were beyond her imagination. However, in a few days, Li Min De's attitude had returned to its original state. When she met him, he laughed as if nothing happened that day.

She could not help wondering when this teenager became so heavy in thoughts that she could not understand him anymore.

August 15th, Crown Princess' Birthday Banquet

Li Wei Yang had just dressed, but suddenly saw Zhao Yue rushing in from the mirror: "Xiaojie, someone sent a box outside, indicating that it was for Xiaojie and no one else was allowed to open it."

Li Wei Yang raised her eyebrows. If this thing was not special, Zhao Yue wouldn’t have reported it. She turned back and said: "Who sent it?"

Zhao Yue lowered her head and said: "Nubi heard that the steward sent someone to report, but when he rushed to the door, he saw a carriage with a black awning leaving, which also had the family emblem of the Jiangs."

"The Jiangs?" Li Wei Yang couldn't help but show a curious expression.

"Yes, Xiaojie, Nubi brought the box in. Does Xiaojie want to see it?" Zhao Yue asked.

Li Wei Yang nodded and said, "Bring it." Zhao Yue clearly knew what was in the box, so she didn’t go close to it. She opened the box far away, exposing the contents inside.

Bai Zhi glanced, screamed, and retreated back half a step in fright. She collided with Mo Zhu who had just entered from behind. The tray in Mo Zhu's hand fell onto the ground and the green grapes rolled down. Mo Zhu couldn’t care about Bai Zhi and quickly picked up the grape from the ground with heartache: "Bai Zhi Jiejie, this is the best grape of this year---"

Bai Zhi pointed at the box and looked shocked.
