Chapter 38 Discuss the restoration of the country, abandon hatred, lose your life, and feel pity in your heart
The twilight is dreary, and the winter snow is misty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info It's just sunny weather, and the snow is starting to fall again. Falling silently into the air, like catkins on a spring day. Fortunately, there is no wind for the snowflakes to be so quiet. It's like telling a sad story, so sad.
The night is dark, and the silent years cover up the old days well. Winter snow soon covered the Chenge Mountains, so the ravines in the valley were also filled with snow. Only a small house in the valley, through the rendering of the lights, adds a layer of warmth in the middle.
On the letterhead under the candle are some strange symbols. It wasn't until Chu Junhao took out a blank piece of paper that Liu Ziyu saw it. What is painted on the paper is the soldier seal letter of the border pass! Liu Ziyu has seen this soldier seal letter, and there will be absolutely no mistake.
In other words, the letter that Mu Chenxuan sent before he died. In fact, he wanted to tell Jun Hao not to let the soldier seal letter fall into the hands of Xirong. It is speculated from this that Mu Chenxuan had seen Xiao Yihan, otherwise how could he seal the letter on the letterhead.
Then the news from Kyoto is indeed true and credible. Xirong really wants to find the border pass talisman, and then control the military power. It's no wonder that Xiao Yihan was so nervous, and hurriedly handed over the talisman to Mu Chenxuan. Although he sent away the talisman, he buried Mu Chenxuan's life.
Regardless, the talisman reached the jade pond without incident. It can be regarded as a merit, otherwise it will be difficult to imagine the consequences if it falls into the hands of Xirong. It's just that Jun Hao has never understood that Kyoto was in turmoil. The border army also suffered most casualties, will they still find those surviving soldiers?
Looking at Jun Hao's frowning appearance, Liu Ziyu unconsciously recalled: "When I fled from the palace, the Imperial Forest Army and the Border Pass Army did suffer heavy casualties. The scene was very chaotic, and everyone fled for their lives...... "Now that half a year has passed, there is very little hope."
To tell the truth, in the course of half a year. Liu Ziyu hid in Tibet and came all the way to the west. I wanted to go to Yuchi to find Jun Hao, but I accidentally learned the news of my father's death. Depressed, Liu Ziyu came to Chen Geling by mistake and fainted.
Fortunately, I was rescued by Qiaoqiao, otherwise I am afraid that I would have frozen to death in the valley. Now that he sees Jun Hao and the letter of the soldier talisman, Liu Ziyu seems to have regained hope. In Liu Ziyu's heart, he wants to avenge his father and sister, and this is a good opportunity.
It's just that the road to recovering the country is not so easy. Although the Talisman Seal is in hand, it can ensure the safety of the eastern foothills. But those surviving soldiers, how to find them. "Wang Qibo," Jun Hao turned around and looked at the silent Wang Qibo, eager for a glimmer of new news.
At that time, the snow was flying, and Jun Hao followed Qiaoqiao to Chen Geling. Wang Qibo had already gone out, and according to Yan Shunqi, he might have gathered soldiers and horses. could have won over Wang Qibo, but who knew that Wang Qibo would have a personal enmity with Liu Ziyu.
"This is Xuancheng," Wang Qibo didn't say anything, he was looking at Yan Shunqi's face. will temporarily calm the hatred for Liu Ziyu, and Yan Shunqi is right, there is no Donglu. If you don't go back to the country, where will you talk about revenge?
At this time, Wang Qibo understood the consciousness of taking the overall situation into account. He pulled out a parchment map and spread it out on the table. By the dim candlelight, he pointed to a small city. said to Jun Hao and others: "The Xuancheng Mansion and I are familiar with each other, and this place is full of grain and grass, which can be used as a war treasury." ”
Located in the southeast of Kyoto, Xuanjo is a very small castle. However, it enjoys the reputation of "the granary of the world", and the road here is flat, and it is very convenient as a treasury. More importantly, Xuancheng is the city of Chen State, and it will not arouse people's suspicion.
Snowflakes, falling on the human elves. Dancing lightly, he came to the world. Sweep away all the guilt of the red dust, and retain a fragrant color. Calculated carefully, it is already the fifteenth day of the lunar month. It's only fifteen days away from the end of the year.
Such a season, if it is really the Imperial City of Kyoto. It must have been very lively, when I was in Kyoto in the past. As soon as the lunar month passes, fireworks are set off in Kyoto. On the streets along the way, small traders and vendors are hawking along the streets. A variety of delicacies that will make your mouth water.
Even better, red lanterns are hung in the streets. Dead branches will also be covered with small lanterns. Or cut into colorful flowers with colored paper and stick them to the branches. From a distance, it looks like a spring day. Thousands of purples and thousands of reds, flowing rainbows, so that people can't see enough.
Things are not people, and time passes. I wonder what Kyoto Castle will be like at this time, and whether it will be as lively as in previous years. Here in Chen Geling, you can only watch the snowflakes flying outside the window. Then carefully planned the next step to prepare for the later restoration.
The so-called "soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass go first", this sentence is very reasonable. Wang Qibo's grain and grass were already in place, and Jun Hao's brows stretched when he heard this. Then he pointed to the position of Jiaoye, and then instructed Wang Qibo: "Tell Chen Guojun that the restoration of the country is successful." This place belongs to him—"
In Jun Hao's view, it is to abandon the relationship between Wang Qibo and the Xuancheng Mansion. borrowed Xuancheng as grain and grass as a condition for the treasury of the restoration of the country. Chen Guo must have some concerns, afraid of luring the wolf into the house. Therefore, we must give Chen Guo benefits and let Chen Guo settle down.
What's more, the city of Jiaoye is located in a dangerous place, and it is the junction of Chen Guo and Donglu. At the same time, it is also the "hometown of gold mines" in the eastern foothills, which Chen Guo has coveted for a long time. If Chen Guo's intention is fulfilled, then Chen Guo will not only borrow Xuancheng, but also send troops to help Donglu.
Wang Qibo didn't dare to agree to these words, he knew that Jun Hao was no longer the monarch of Donglu State. Even the task of restoring the country is noncommittal or not. On the contrary, he looked at Yan Shunqi, as if he was waiting for him to come up with an idea. "Brother Chu is the future monarch and will avenge you." Yan Shunqi said meaningfully.
Wang Qibo heard the sound outside the strings, and without thinking about it, he immediately knelt on the ground and arched his hand: "The villain takes the order!" Tomorrow we will leave for Chen Guo! Wang Qibo suddenly understood, if the restoration of the country is successful. He will be the first hero, how can revenge be trivial.
Such benefits also came from Yan Shunqi's slow participation. Originally, Wang Qibo still thought about being loyal to Yan Shunqi's subordinates. Just after listening to Jun Hao's discussion, Wang Qibo made up his mind. In the face of power, hatred seems to be about to lean back.
The candle flame flickered the traces of the night, after some discussion. Jun Hao's heart is much clearer, and Wang Qibo is in charge of Chen Guo. So the plan to restore the country has taken another step forward. Jun Hao was full of joy, picked up the teacup and slowly thought about the next chess piece.
"I still want to trouble Brother Yan, I'm going to Yuchi," Jun Hao thought about it for a long time, and finally realized that the person who did it in Yuchi was none other than Yan Shunqi. Because of the jade pool, there is also Jiang Lingyan here. If those soldiers and horses were used by Yan Shunqi, they would have a little more chance.
After all, it was a long way to return to Kyoto from Tamaki. Yan Shunqi has always been clever, and he believes that it is easy to deal with a Jiang Lingyan. In fact, as long as those soldiers and horses, as for Jiang Lingyan's life, keep it as a hostage. It was used to deal with Xiao Yihan in Kyoto.
"Liu Ziyu contacted Kyoto," Jun Hao pondered for a while, and then said, "After your injuries are healed, immediately join Lin Yifan and Qi Su ......" The three people were carefully planned by Jun Hao. He tightly held the military talisman seal letter, and he could finally take back the military power and avoid the worries after the restoration of the country.
The north wind blew out the falling snowflakes overnight. The sunlight shines comfortably on the snow, as if rendering a thin layer of color. There is no wind in mid-air, and it seems more and more quiet. Outside the deserted city, the withered vines are cleansed with a sweetness.
Compared to half a year ago, Kyoto Castle is remarkably quiet. It's quiet enough to hear the sound of the sun breaking. The flowing old days have left a string of footprints on the snow. Between the green pines and cypresses, covered with a layer of snow, occasionally blown by the wind, falls to the ground.
It's been three days, and Yuan Yibin hasn't come back from the palace. Xiyue was a little sullen, since she was misunderstood by Yuan Yibin last time. Her heart was somewhat unpleasant, and this time she entered the palace in a hurry. There is no chance of explanation, and Xiyue feels even more aggrieved.
Push open the door and look at the snow that has accumulated in the yard. There are also sunny colors, which have a spring atmosphere. Xiyue didn't have the time to appreciate it, and she slowly walked along the gravel path to the door. Maybe at this time, Yuan Yibin is on his way.
The trail is paved with many cobblestones, and the melting snow makes the road more slippery. Xiyue walked cautiously, lest she stumble. Fortunately, the servants cleaned up the snow, and Xiyue only bypassed. Still an accidental, almost slipped.
Suddenly, a figure helped him up. Xiyue's mind immediately became alert, and sure enough, it was Chen Shaoping! Today's Chen Shaoping is wearing a small water-red jacket and a big red cloak. The long black hair was pulled up by the golden hairpin, and it looked extremely festive.
It's really annoying, Yuan Yibin hasn't returned home yet. Chen Shaoping is good, but he has taken care of his body. Is this what is used for festivity? Or are you mocking yourself? The more Xiyue thought about it, the more angry she became, and she was about to have a seizure. But he was cautious and looked at Chen Shaoping's palm.
Luckily, she didn't have a dagger or anything like that in her hand. Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief and gently brushed Chen Shaoping's arm. He snorted coldly, "What day is it?" Want Miss Chen to dress like this? Don't you know that my brother is hard to know the good and the bad? ”
Originally, Xiyue was in a bad mood in the past two days, but when she saw Chen Shaoping like this, she was even more angry. Yuan Yibin entered the palace to check Duanmu Ruiping's pulse, and if he was cured, he would be framed for colluding with Xirong. If it is not cured, even life will be lost. Can Xiyue not worry?
Her words were a bit too much. But seeing that Chen Shaoping's eyes were a little sluggish, the wind was blowing her long hair. It looks more and more pitiful, and Xiyue knows. About the past, Chen Shaoping was like this for Yuan Yibin.
Otherwise, how could Yuan Yibin be infatuated with her. "If you want to be Mrs. Yuan, unless I die!" Xiyue added another sentence and mocked fiercely, "Otherwise, with my Yuan Xiyue in one day, don't be delusional!" It's really whimsical to want to join my Yuan family......"
The wind was blowing, and the snow particles were scattered back and forth. Xiyue's chattering and whining voices were still ringing on the side. But he didn't see that Chen Shaoping had already pulled out the golden hairpin in the middle of the hair. Gently walked up to Xiyue, and then stabbed her in the chest.
The blood was like a stream of water, instantly soaking Shigetsuki's orange clothes. It is like a blood lotus blooming in the valley, and the blood stains that continue to gush out are like layers of blooming petals. Xiyue looked at this golden hairpin in surprise, as well as Chen Shaoping's smug smile.
In the winter moon, the plum blossoms are in full bloom, covering the sprouting of a hundred flowers. But it still can't be hidden, the little gardenia under the corner. Buried deep in the snow, it contains the warmth of winter. Just wait for the next spring, and break the ground. Now the breath of silence has left the fragrance of plum.
Is it as strong as a gardenia, so that you can live among the red dust. Xiyue was already very careful, but she still didn't dodge this golden hairpin. The hairpin was so hard by Chen Shaoping, and it was in the position of the center mouth. Shizuki could feel it, and her heart had begun to break.
The dripping blood quickly hollowed out Xiyue's spirit. Her feet went limp, and she fell crooked on the snow. The blood stains on the wound covered by his right hand spread to the snow. Drop by drop of blood, so red, so poignant, so sad, so sad.
It's like the afterglow after sunset, swaying on the snowy mountains. Xiyue's voice trembled, but she still didn't believe it: "Tell me, exactly, why?" She didn't understand where she was sorry for Chen Shaoping. Or is it because what I said was a bit excessive.
But no matter what, according to Chen Shaoping's weak character. How can you do it to yourself? Xiyue will never believe that there must be something ulterior behind Chen Shaoping. But these things no longer allow her to think. She just felt a tearing pain in her heart.
The snow was very cold, slowly freezing Xiyue's heart. She finally understood why Chen Shaoping wore red clothes. She's going to kill herself, and the red clothes will cover up the blood. Chen Shaoping is not confused about this, it seems that she has been planning for a long time.
Under the blue sky, there was an occasional glimmer of white clouds. The weather is so clear that the snow is reflected. There was a feeling of a fairy world, and Xiyue felt a blur in front of her. Her mind was a little drowsy, and she couldn't sleep. Xiyue tried hard to tell herself that she must wait for Yuan Yibin.
"My brother will take Xiaoyue with him, and he won't leave Xiaoyue's ......" Yuan Yibin's voice was still echoing in his ears. Xiyue seems to see her childhood self. followed behind Yuan Yibin and looked at the gardenias scattered in all directions. Then laugh happily.
Is it yourself, about to die? Shizuki shook her head desperately, breathing rapidly. She saw Chen Shaoping with a weird smile, she looked like a walking corpse. Walking back slowly, there was only a clear trail of footprints left on the snow.
Because of his persistent beliefs, because he thinks about his brother's safety. Xiyue can't close her eyes, she has to hold on to the end. When I lowered my head and saw the golden hairpin on my heart. Xiyue gritted her teeth, clenched the golden hairpin and tried to pull it out.
It hurts, it hurts to the bones. The hairpin was pulled out, but it was covered with blood. The blood flowed even more, and Xiyue broke out in a cold sweat. The eyelids were a little sour and astringent, and Xiyue seemed to be sleeping. Since leaving Chu Junyan, she hasn't slept peacefully for a long time.
But this time she couldn't, she knew if she fell asleep this time. I will never see my brother Yuan Yibin again, and Xiyue swallowed. Then he laboriously took out the silk handkerchief and pressed it against the wound. No matter what, you have to wait until Yuan Yibin comes back.
"Satsuki?" But Yuan Yibin, Xiyue still heard it wrong. Her eyelids twitched slightly, but she felt extremely difficult. I'm so sleepy, Xiyue doesn't have any strength anymore. She could see her brother, she could hear his voice, and she slept happily.
