Flowers bloom without worries

Chapter 200 Negotiating Countermeasures

The confidant brought Xiao Chuhan and his party to a relatively safe place temporarily and settled them properly. After a rest, Xiao Chuhan and others sat together to discuss the next action plan.

"Our most urgent task right now is to find the king of Xiyue Nation!"

Xiao Chuhan analyzed with a serious face: "Only if the king is still alive can Xiyue Country have a glimmer of hope."

However, some people worriedly said: "But the situation outside is so chaotic now, how can we find it?"

At this moment, a sly look flashed in Lan Xi's eyes, and she suggested, "I do have an idea... I don't know if I should tell you or not."

Xiao Chuhan looked at Lan Xi and encouraged her to continue.

"The monarch's sudden disappearance is most likely due to her being kidnapped or someone is hunting her. Based on my years of experience, we can spread the news, claiming that the monarch has the treasure map to restore the country. In this way, those who are hunting her will surely be eager to find the monarch. And we just need to follow closely to find the whereabouts of the monarch." Lan Xi said confidently.

Everyone looked at Lan Xi and thought this was a good idea. After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, thinking that this was the best way to find the king at the moment. So Xiao Chuhan arranged his confidants to start preparing to spread the news, hoping to find the king of Xiyue Kingdom as soon as possible.

That night, Lan Xi tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time. She simply got up, put on a thin dress, gently opened the door, and went to the courtyard. Lan Xi stood there quietly, looking up at the night sky, letting the bright moonlight fall on her body, as if to drown out the endless sadness and loneliness.

At this moment, Xiao Chuhan appeared silently beside Lan Xi. He looked at Lan Xi with a hint of worry in his eyes. After careful consideration, Xiao Chuhan decided to tell Lan Xi about his concerns: "Xi'er, your performance today may arouse other people's suspicion, do you know?"

Lan Xi turned her head and looked at Xiao Chuhan, with a faint bitter smile on her lips. In fact, Lan Xi knew very well that anyone who was familiar with her might have doubted her a long time ago. Since she woke up, both her tone of voice and her style of doing things were completely different from the past. However, what did it matter? She was still herself, but she had experienced too many changes, and her state of mind had changed drastically.

Lan Xi sighed deeply and said, "I originally thought that God had given me a chance to live again, so that I could exist in this world openly. However, in the eyes of others, no one knows that I am the real Ye Lan Xi. My existence is just to live well on behalf of Wu You. No matter what era I am in, I seem to never be able to truly live for myself even just once..." When she said this, endless sadness revealed in Lan Xi's eyes.

Xiao Chuhan listened to Lan Xi's story silently, and suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing. He originally thought that he had understood Lan Xi's innermost thoughts well enough, but now he realized that he didn't know Lan Xi well enough. Looking at Lan Xi's sad eyes, Xiao Chuhan felt distressed. He wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know where to start. In this quiet night, they were silent to each other, as if there were only two of them in the world. The moonlight was like water, reflecting the unspeakable pain in their hearts.
