Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 268

Chapter 268: This Situation Seems Difficult To Solve
After stabilizing his posture, Chi Xiyou coughed to cover up his shock and said, “But if you don’t tell her, you won’t get any answer, right?”

Seeing that Xuan Ruiquan looked even more depressed, Chi Xiyou added, “I don’t know what happened between you two, but from my experience of observing my parents all these years, I can tell you that honesty, sincerity, and communication are important factors in cultivating a long-term relationship. Moreover, based on my understanding of Xin Xin’s character, she is not someone who makes trouble out of nothing. If you explain to her, she will understand.”

Xuan Ruiquan listened to Chi Xiyou’s advice and fell into deep thought. Seeing his thoughtful look, Chi Xiyou patted Xuan Ruiquan on the shoulder and said, “Think carefully about what I said. I believe you will be able to find your answer.”

After saying that, Chi Xiyou left to have dinner with Chi Xinru.

When Xuan Ruiquan was the only one left in the room, he closed his eyes and recalled the memories of his previous life. After living for another ten years in this new life, those memories have become blurred, but the pain is still as clear as yesterday.

When he first returned to the past, he was confused and spent several years building his power. After establishing the Jin Yi Army and consolidating his position in the imperial court, he rushed to Yunshan Village to find Duan Yixin but found that she had dedicated her life to Tang Zizheng.

At that time, he lost the will to fight against fate and left Yunshan Village. From that day on, he focuses all his attention and time on uncovering the truth behind the death of the previous emperor, the first empress, and his mother.

However, when he thought he could only try his best to save his elder cousin’s life, he found that his beloved Duan Yixin was back. After finally holding her in his arms, he couldn’t accept the fact that he might lose her again.

Xuan Ruiquan covered his eyes with his arm and tried to clear his mind. After an unknown amount of time, he finally opened his eyes, picked up his sword, and put on the silver mask. When Chi Xiyou came back, Xuan Ruiquan had disappeared.

The next morning, Duan Yixin woke up relatively early. After she freshened up, she went to find Xuan Ruiquan. Standing in front of his room, she hesitated for a moment before knocking on the door.

Knock, knock, knock!

She waited for a few minutes before the door opened. Seeing that it was Chi Xiyou who opened the door, Duan Yixin said, “Elder Brother Xiyou, good morning.”

When Chi Xiyou saw it was her, he knew that she was not here to see him but to see Xuan Ruiquan. He scratched his head and said, “Xin Xin, good morning. If you want to find General Xuan, he’s not here.”

Hearing this, Duan Yixin asked in surprise, “It’s still dark outside. Do you know where he is going?”

Chi Xiyou shook his head and said, “When I came back from dinner last night, he was gone.”

Hearing this, Duan Yixin lowered her eyes and fell into silence. Just when Chi Xiyou thought she would be sad, Duan Yixin looked at him and said, “It’s still early. I’m going back to the room first. Let’s have breakfast together later when Xinru wakes up.”

Chi Xiyou observed her expression for a few seconds. After making sure she was fine, he nodded and said, “All right.”

Back in her room, Duan Yixin sat on a stool and took out a notebook from the warehouse. She had compiled the information she collected while treating patients three days ago. Since she has some free time now, she plans to research a cure for the plague.

Three days have passed, and she doesn’t know what’s going on outside. If the government could control the plague, then everything would be fine. With those physicians, they should be able to do something about the spread of the plague.

While she was working in the room, Jian Qi and the other shadow guards were in a bit of a dilemma. Last night, their Master suddenly sent an emergency signal to them. However, when they all came, they saw their Master sitting on the top of the tree, motionless.

Watching the sky slowly getting brighter, Liushiliu whispered to Jian Qi, “Captain Jian Qi, why don’t you go talk to Master?”

Jian Qi glanced at Liushiliu and said, “Not going.”

Liushiliu scratched his head, then looked at his Master, who was still sitting on the top of the tree like a statue, and thought, ‘This situation seems difficult to solve.’

Thinking that he needed to do something, Liushiliu said again, “Captain Jian Qi, you are the closest to the Master among us. How about you give it a try?”

As soon as these words came out, other secret guards nodded in agreement. With the other secret guards joining in and persuading him, Jian Qi’s cold face showed a hint of helplessness.

He looked up at his Master and said, “Don’t you see that Master is in a bad mood? Do you think I have lived too long, and you all want to send me to death? I’m not going.”

Although Jian Qi has a quiet and cold personality, his observation skills are very keen. After seeing his Master’s expressionless face last night, he knew that his Master was in a very bad mood, and it was best not to disturb him.

When the others heard his words, they exchanged looks and then looked at their Master at the same time. Judging from the expressionless look on his face, it seemed that their Master was in a normal mood.

Jian Qi knew that his brothers didn’t believe him, so he said, “If you want to call Master to come down, then do it yourself. I will go find something for Master’s breakfast.”

As soon as these words came out, Jian Qi disappeared. Seeing that their captain had abandoned them, the secret guards turned their attention to Liushiliu.
