Chapter 575: The Promise of the Monarch
It was still early, but there were already people coming and going in Baishan City, and it was very noisy. There were too many dead people, and it was no longer possible to completely separate the soldiers of the two countries, so all the corpses were concentrated and accumulated in the plains outside Baishan City, and then a fire was ignited, burning half of the sky red.
There were heavy troops near the county office, but the courtyard was very quiet, not because there were no guards, but because no one dared to make a loud noise and disturb the master of the house.
Vedic Cheng had already woken up, and Di Geor was summoned to ask about the situation in Baishan at the moment, and there were also people in the other courtyard, Wu Feiyun was listening to Luo Yun's reply to Fang Wenzheng's placement situation, because he came to Baishan not by prior arrangement, but because he learned that Xi Hao had changed his plan here, so Fang Wenzheng and the others did not know, but after ordering Luo Yun to find the team that came to Baishan as an internal response yesterday, he knew that Fang Wenzheng had left and was missing.
"Wen Zheng still has no news?" lowered his head and took a sip of tea, a trace of displeasure flashed in Wu Feiyun's eyes. Unlike Fang Chong, Wen Zheng has always been very cautious and shrewd, and there are few things that he can't do, so it's really puzzling to leave without handover.
"The subordinates asked Tie Niu to lead people to look around, and I heard from the Hebodo soldiers guarding the city that Wen Zheng suddenly left the city gate in the middle of the night the day before, and after that, he never came back. ”
Wu Feiyun frowned and pondered for a moment, got up and walked in front of Luo Yun, leaned over and said: "Pass the order, our people will not untie their clothes and swords before leaving Baishan City, all of them will give me a twelve-point spirit, and I must not slack off in any trouble." ”
Luo Yun was shocked when he heard this, he felt that it was inappropriate to come to Baishan this time, although Heboduo and Xiangguofu are cooperative relations, but on the battlefield, what is irrechangeable, driven by interests, the allies of the previous moment will become enemies in a life-and-death struggle in a blink of an eye, this kind of change has existed since ancient times, and it should not be taken lightly.
There was a slight sound outside the door, and when he looked up and saw Wu Feiyun's eyes, Luo Yun didn't speak, only nodded his head slightly, and then retreated to the door and pulled the door, and a figure on the other side of the courtyard flashed away, blinking. Seeing this, Wu Feiyun smiled coldly and raised his hand, Luo Yun retreated and walked towards the courtyard gate, while Wu Feiyun followed closely behind, stepped out of the door, and looked at the courtyard to the east.
I don't know, did he wake up......
That night, he slept soundly.
The door squeaked and opened, and the guards at the door turned back in surprise when they heard the sound.
Xi Hao stood at the door with a tired face, his hands still clasped the door frame, and his reddish eyes did not look at the guards, but just raised them lightly and looked at the sky where the snowflakes were falling. The cold wind swept in, raising the broken hair on his cheeks, and blowing the thin clothes, and his pale face made him look extremely weak, and his body seemed to be blown away by the wind. Seeing this, he hurriedly stepped across the courtyard and came to Xi Hao.
Yesterday's silky skin was unfinished, thinking of the trembling body struggling in his arms, he couldn't help but darken his eyes, stretched out his hand, brushed the broken hair on Xi Hao's cheeks, but he avoided it slightly.
Disgust! An irrepressible disgust swelled in my heart, even though I had not been insulted by this person yesterday, but as long as I thought of his lustful appearance, I was so disgusted that I wanted to vomit.
With stomach cramps and a dull ache, Xi Hao turned around, covered his chest and walked back to the table, and sat down with his back to Bark.
"Come on, fetch water for the son to wash. Xi Hao's reaction fell into the eyes of that person, he knew that Xi Hao must be very disgusted with himself at the moment, but if he didn't say something at this moment, he was afraid that as soon as Wu Feiyun came, he would have no chance. Thinking of this, Vedic smiled slightly, walked to Xi Hao's side, and sat down.
"The number of captives in Baishan City has been counted, and there are still 1,632 people alive, including the two you saw the night before. ”
As soon as those words came out, I saw that Xi Hao's body trembled slightly, although he still never replied, he was obviously not as straight as Fang Cai. Vedic Cheng was secretly happy in his heart, reached out and poured a cup of tea, took a sip, slowly dusted his cuffs, and said, "Actually, these people don't have to die. After saying that, he paused again and said nothing.
There was a terrible silence in the room for a moment, and after a long time, the person in front of him finally moved, his delicate face was slightly on one side, and his lips opened lightly and threw out a sentence coldly: "Your conditions." ”
Vedic Cheng showed a snicker, but it disappeared in an instant, with a hint of reluctance, and said: "If it weren't for the illness of this queen mother, this king would not exchange conditions with you at all." ”
Xi Hao frowned, and the expression on his face became more and more cold: "If you don't want to, you don't have to force it." ”
A trace of surprise flashed across his face, from the first time he saw Xi Hao, Xi Hao was at the risk of his own safety for others, if it weren't for that night, he would not have finally given up resistance and succumbed to himself, but at this moment, his cold speech, that indifferent look, made him seem to be a different person, extremely strange!
"If I tell you to let them go, you will not let them go, and if I promise to heal your mother, do not hurt their lives, and if you cannot guarantee it, do not come to me and negotiate terms. The words were very soft, but every word was unusually clear, and there was no doubt that there was a kind of courage.
The person in front of him is still so slender, but for some reason, overnight, he is no longer weak and deceitful. Bark Cheng was still full of words, but at this moment, he was blocked in his throat by Xi Hao's words, and he couldn't say any more.
"If there is nothing else to do, I will have someone come and freshen up for me, and after a long time, I want to go out for a walk. The voice didn't reveal the slightest emotion, but it heard the bark and gradually raised his lips.
Interesting, how many sides of this little man have never seen before? The closer he gets, the more people want to clear the fog and find out! Since he promised not to leave, then no matter how Wu Feiyun does, it will be in vain!
With his elbows half-propped up on the table, leaning against the table, he watched motionlessly as the concubine combed the man's long hair.
Xi Hao could feel the naked gaze of the person beside him, at this moment, if he was standing on the cliff on all sides, he would enter the abyss and retreat into the abyss, and all the people he could rely on were no longer around, so he could only rely on himself!
"Bring the porridge and let the son eat it. ”
Fingers raised slightly, Bark Chengqi was still leaning on the table, the presumptuous gaze did not converge for half a minute, Xi Hao sat silently, did not pay attention to him, lowered his head and drank the porridge, got up and walked out: "Let's go." ”
Hearing this, Vedic Cheng got up and stood up, and as soon as he followed outside the door, he saw Xi Hao's footsteps, he looked up, and saw Wu Feiyun standing at the gate of the courtyard.
"Young Master Feiyun didn't sleep much longer. Bark Cheng hooked his lips and smiled, and said with a look of incomprehension: "Xi Hao said, these days I am so bored and panicked, I want to go out to breathe, this king has just finished drinking porridge with him, and is about to go out for a walk with him." ”
Wu Feiyun just looked at Xi Hao, the words that he said didn't seem to have entered his ears at all, he watched Xi Hao's paused footsteps step out again, and then walked closer and closer, and finally came to him.
"Xi Hao. There was a bitterness in the voice, unbelievably low. There are a few people in this world who can make Wu Feiyun lower his head, but this person is one!
"It's just right, I'm going out for a walk, if you're okay, go along." After Xi Hao finished speaking, he walked out of the courtyard without a pause, Wu Feiyun stood in place and was stunned for a long time, until Bark Chengqi walked past him with a gloomy face, he suddenly came back to his senses, and suddenly turned back to look at the back of Xi Hao's departure, and then showed a hint of ecstasy, and his footsteps turned and chased straight away.
Thick boots stepped on the deep snow, the slender and small figure never stopped, walking calmly step by step, and the two people with their own thoughts could only follow him at the moment, and disappeared into the chaotic crowd together.
Heavy snow blows, dyeing the sky and the earth. There are many horses standing at the gate of Guiyunzhuang, there are the shadow thorns of Liquan Villa, the guards of Yinan Wumen, naturally, and the people who send guests off in Guiyunzhuang.
Xu Promise stood on the top of the steps, watching the person in the distance getting closer and closer, and there was no fluctuation between the eyebrows that had always been indifferent outside, and when Wufang got closer, he bowed his head slightly, arched his hand, and said: "Promise to send Gongzi out, the owner of the village can't come to see him off if he has something to do today, and I hope Gongzi will forgive me." The tone was unfazed, as strange as a stranger.
Flawless passed by his side, paused, lightly tilted his head, and said lightly: "The Tao is not the same, my Ji Wufang stepped out of the gate of Guiyunzhuang today, since then, Guiyunzhuang and its subsidiaries are no longer subordinate to my Leng Gongzi, if he sees each other in the future, he will not complain, Xu General take care!"
"Send Childe!" Fists cupped, body bowed down, that salute seemed to outsiders to be the beginning of Guiyunzhuang's break with Leng Gongzi, but only the two who bowed and received the salute knew what the meaning of this deep bow contained.
Flawless, from now on, the ends of the earth will be cherished! Brother Zhengtang will always be on your side!
The hands under the wide sleeves are desperately clenched, flawless and no look back, no turning back, no turning back! Haobai's teeth clenched tightly, the man behind him still did not get up, the kind of separation was too difficult for the two of them, three years of childhood companionship, and then thirteen years of no information, just because of a promise at that time, that person embarked on a road of no return without regrets, in countless days and nights when he was too confused to find the direction, he would hold the small paper crane to give himself a reason to hold on. Promise, promise...... It's just that I don't want to forget that promise, so I took a promise!
The carriage ran over, and the swaying group of people and horses slowly left, and the man who stood bent down finally closed his eyes, and two crystal tears dripped from an angle that no one could see.
Flawless, you have grown up, with the emotions you want to cherish, hatred is an abyss that can never get out, only the cruelty of war can make you see clearly, so, there will be a difficult choice waiting for you, for you, for him, for the thousands of people who are chasing you, you must conform to your heart and be yourself!
At the end of the writing, I happened to hear Joey Yung's "Little", and suddenly my eyes blurred.
I'm looking for the people in that story
You are indispensable
A little hand leads a small person
Guarding the little eternity
The promises of childhood, what we remember, what we keep, and how many more!
