Chapter 50 - Swearing
Since the First Battle of Weishui, the Chen Jun Xie clan has undoubtedly been the icing on the cake in the Jin Kingdom, but what it has attracted is not the prosperous era, but the jealousy of the royal family. The emperor did not reward the Xie family for his high achievements, but also stripped the prime minister of the power little by little, and transferred all the rights to Sima Daozi, the king of Langya, and the prime minister and the Xie family are both romantic and proud people, who do not value fame and fortune at all, and are happy to retreat bravely, such as when he was in Dongshan, he was a chic idler who wrote poems and splashed ink every day. The prime minister asked for orders to guard Guangling, but the prime minister didn't care about fame and fortune, but he cared very much about his reputation, the Sima royal family and the Taiyuan Wang clan jointly polluted his merits and shocked the lord, and intended to become the constant temperature of the year, putting the clan above the royal power, the prime minister was innocent, and he couldn't stand such a false accusation, he got sick a month ago, was bedridden, and actually ...... a few days ago. Ride the crane to the west.
She has been taken care of by the Xie family all her life, and she believes that the prime minister is the person she respects and relies on the most, and now the prime minister has died of illness and the decline of the Xie family, which is undoubtedly a fatal blow to her, as if the world collapsed overnight.
And this woman, since she is a prophet, she must have known that the Xie clan was going to decline, is this the reason why she left the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the first place?
But about this, I don't blame her, avoiding disasters and avoiding disasters, human nature is just that, she is not herself, and she doesn't have much affection for Xie Shi. However, the second son was devoted to her, and she never refused, and now because the Xie family has gone, she hastily defeated him? Turn around and live in such a gorgeous palace?
Liu Wu looked at Wanzhang, the master and servant who used to be in love with sisters, but now they are like enemies.
She said coldly and hatefully: "I always thought that you were a smart and kind person, and I treated you like the eldest lady, but later I found out that you are more than smart and kind, and comparing you with the eldest lady is simply an insult to her." ”
"Liu Fu ......" Wanzhang called her name, obviously with a lot of words to say, but she only moved her lips a few times, and she couldn't say a word. In fact, what could she say? Explain that he has a hard time, and he left the Eastern Jin Dynasty not because he saw the decline of the Xie family, but because he had a mission that he had to complete? So does it mean to tell her that the reason why she came to the Eastern Jin Dynasty was simply for this mission, and she was just using the Xie family completely?
That's right, she blamed herself right. She is indeed cunning and vicious, and the truth is that she is even more heinous than what she says she has done.
As for Xie Yan, she really didn't show any refusal, since she acquiesced and accepted his goodness, why did she enjoy his good to herself without taking any responsibility?
Therefore, she is still an ungrateful, ruthless and unrighteous person.
Yes, where can she compare with Xie Daoyun? Compared to her, it is like the difference between the bright moon in the sky and the mud in the ditch.
Wan Zhang bit his lip until it turned white and bloody, but in the end he didn't say a word. Facing the disappointed and hateful face of Liu Fu, all she remembered in her mind was the days and nights in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, how the Jiangzuo romantic characters, the Mid-Autumn Festival gathered together, played the piano and talked, the moon and the wine, and talked about the world; How to spend a happy day with Xie Yan, give jade hairpins to each other, enjoy the snow in the palace together, and lead the strongest army in the world to the battlefield......
All the past is so unbridled in retrospect, beautiful as a dream.
It's also as far away as a dream.
And he was even more so because he was appreciated and recommended by the Xie family, so he could have today's reputation, but he abandoned him at the moment of Xie's decline, which was really cold-hearted.
Needless to say, anyone who has seen how Xie Yan is good to himself and how ruthlessly he is leaving must feel so.
And how not to let them think like this? Even I feel like I'm ruthless.
Even if she has a mission that she has to say, she shouldn't, she shouldn't do it.
But now that it has been done, the price must be accepted.
After a long time, three words slowly spit out from his blood-colored lips:
"I'm sorry ......"
Just these three words, but it seemed to consume all her strength.
She knew that she was destined to owe Xie Shi and Xie Yan for a lifetime.
"Excuse me?" Liu Fu repeated her words lightly, as if she was puzzled for a moment, and then showed an extremely disdainful and cold smile, "Do you want to apologize to the second son or the prime minister?" After sneering, his expression immediately became detached and indifferent, "No matter who it is for, don't you think it's too light?" ”
Too light.
Naturally, it's too light.
After so long of care and support, so long of treating each other with all her heart, she turned her head and left, how could she be able to explain clearly with the words "sorry"?
At this moment, the Xie family wants her to die, and she shouldn't say a word.
"No matter what you want me to do in return for the Xie family, I will not refuse." Wanzhang lowered his eyes and said softly, "But, can you wait for me to finish what I have to do, and when my things are over, I will go back to the Eastern Jin Dynasty with you and repay the kindness of the prime minister and the second son with the rest of my life." ”
Liu Fu glanced at her, still shameless in his eyes, and pretended to be abrupt:
"Oh, I almost forgot, Miss Wanzhang is a person who is very good at divination and prediction, so naturally she has something big to do, how can she remember the kindness in this world?"
"I mean really." Wanzhang hurriedly looked up at Liu Wu, but because her eyes were too cold and unfamiliar, she secretly lowered her eyes, gritted her teeth and said, "You must believe me, and when I finish this, I will definitely return to the Eastern Jin Dynasty...... I swear. ”
When she said this, Liu Wu still didn't seem to believe it, and looked condescendingly with burning eyes and disdain, deliberately waiting to see if she really dared to swear it, or if it was just for show.
Wanzhang is not afraid, since she has to listen to it to feel at ease, then let her listen, stretch out three fingers, and swear to the sky with a frank expression:
"I, Wanzhang, swear to heaven here, I owe the kindness of the Xie clan of Chenjun, and I will return to the Jin Kingdom in two years to repay him, and I will be a cow and a horse, at any cost, if I violate this oath, I will be punished by five thunders, and I will be born forever and fall into the devil's way."
“…… Good. ”
Liu Fu looked at her resolute expression, nodded very slowly, so frank and brave, it was beyond her imagination, I thought she was just talking, but I didn't expect that she really dared to make such a poisonous oath, and for a while there was a little bit of admiration in the past.
"Very good, then please Miss Wanzhang, don't forget the oath you made today, if you break your promise, you don't have to be punished by God, and I will fight with you for the Xie family."
The old friend made her leave a poisonous oath, and walked by her side indifferently, refusing to even keep his eyes on her for a while, Wanzhang was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned around, and said to her back: "You can live in this hall......" seemed to remember something, his voice was softer, and Fang continued, "If it is, don't dislike it." ”
The other party didn't give her any reply, her footsteps only stopped for half a second, and then she pushed the door open without looking back, but the moment she pushed the door open, the two of them looked at the three people standing in the courtyard at the same time, and the atmosphere seemed a little stiff.
Murong Chong was originally a friend of the master, but now he has become a person who loves the master, and for the three people in the courtyard, in addition to being a maid from a former friendly country, Liu Wu is a threatening figure who may take away Wanzhang at any time.
So when the two parties met, the hostility was self-evident, and Liu Wu was a girl with backbone and identity, so she didn't even want to say hello, and walked past the side of the eldest brother of Emperor Dayan without squinting with her head raised, which provoked the indignation on the faces of Kanshui and Ah Li that could not be hidden.
Only the two parties seemed to be ignorant, Murong Chong's face was not pale, and Wanzhang's face was distracted.
Raising his hand to retreat Kanshui and Ah Li, a white-robed person walked into the hall, and the two palace ladies by the door immediately lowered their heads and closed the door.
Murong Chong walked up to Wanzhang who was still stunned step by step with a smile, it seemed that he really had a lot of concern, and when he saw him coming, he didn't even react at all. After a few more careful looks, I suddenly noticed that the little girl's eyes were slowly shining with a thin layer of moisture.
He was stunned for a long time, the smile on the corner of his lips dissipated, and he couldn't help frowning.
She was sad.
I've known her for so long, I've never seen her so sad, let alone cry. A girl of this age rarely doesn't like to cry, so this is also a reason why she is willing to stay by her side, so that she will not cause trouble and burden herself. But gradually, he sometimes felt that he was wrong, her optimism and strength may not be a perfect good thing, and he even selfishly felt that she had better cry a little more, so that occasionally he could let himself stand in front of her, protect her, and comfort her.
But today, he saw the fog in her eyes with his own eyes, and felt that it was better for her not to cry.
Because, until he personally witnessed her being bullied, and she was sad, his heart ......
There was a murderous intent to destroy the world for a while.
If it weren't for the fact that the maid was the person next to Xie Yan, and not the old person she valued, she would have killed her immediately.
Raising her hand, her slender fingers were distinct, beautiful and white, and the second joint of her index finger touched the corner of her eye.
Hot, bitter tears.
was comforted, but she suddenly cried more fiercely, if Fang Cai was just suppressing her emotions and choking in a low voice, then now is to vent her grievances and cry loudly.
In the next second, he was desperate and lowered his head and crashed into the embrace in front of him.
The embrace was stunned, then hugged her tightly, and the hand that had been wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes covered her back, and patted her undulating little back.
Since she was a child, she almost didn't know what sadness and tears were, and Master once told her that as a woman, she must not cry, a familiar and weak cry is a hundred times more moving than laughter, but she can't learn how to be a child, and now she finally tastes it, but she finds that the original taste is too uncomfortable. She really didn't understand why women in the world were crying.
Such a sad feeling.
In addition to when she cries, she can throw herself into the seemingly warm and eternal embrace around her without scruples, and she doesn't have to care about anything for a while, she doesn't have to care about anything, and she can be a little girl who needs to be cared for and comforted by others in everything.
