Chapter 231: Death
At this time, Dong Zhuo, even he couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had for Xu Rong. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Yang Ding's eyeliner gradually brought back all the situations in Youzhou: this Xu Rong was originally the wife of Liu Yi, the king of Luling, but later Liu Yi died, the Xu family was exterminated, and she was sent to the military market by Liu Ying, the princess of Wannian, to become a camp prostitute in the Flying Eagle Camp. I heard that he died of illness in the barracks four years ago, but I didn't think that this person was still alive...... To this day, he has secretly crossed the world, disguised himself as a man, and served as a lieutenant general in his Dong Zhuo's army.
After Dong Zhuo learned about Xu Rong's life experience, not only did he not hate Xu Rong, but he felt more and more sympathy for her in his heart: she was trampled into a camp prostitute by Liu Ying, no wonder she was so ruthless, especially with Li Min and Zhang An, as well as the Flying Eagle Battalion...... The cruelty of its methods is simply rare in the world, and it turns out that there is such an inside story. Dong Zhuo finally understood the cause and effect, and also had a thorough understanding of why Xu Rong had to march against orders.
Dong Zhuo grabbed Xu Rong and walked gently towards the white jade platform.
"Do you know that your behavior in the past few months, although you have repelled several people for me, has made people all over the world deviate from me, I am afraid that a hundred years later, the world will judge me as a tyrannical and unscrupulous traitor."
Dong Zhuo clasped Xu Rong's slender jade hand tightly, and although the words he said were quite complaining, there was no trace of anger in his tone, especially when he actually called himself "I" instead of "Lonely", which was really incredible.
Xu Rong looked at Dong Zhuo calmly and with a little surprise: This is a gentle and kind man, although he is already a little old, but at this time, he is radiant and looks particularly energetic. looked much younger than the Dong Zhuo she met last year, which made Xu Rong wonder: Could it be that Dong Zhuo has changed?
The two sat opposite each other, Dong Zhuo was tall, Xu Rong was petite, and judging from their appearance alone, the two of them were like grandfathers and granddaughters.
Dong Zhuo saw the incomprehension and confusion in Xu Rong's eyes at this time, and he smiled slightly:
"I never dreamed that the capable person who assisted me, let me ascend to the position of prime minister, give me advice, and guide the country turned out to be a woman."
When Xu Rong heard this, he slowly raised his head, and a pair of big dark eyes were facing Dong Zhuo's gaze:
"The concubine didn't expect that the world-minded and ambitious Lord Dong Zhuo would have such a childlike appearance, this is not like Dong Zhuo who the concubine knows."
Dong Zhuo was shocked: This is the first woman who dares to say such bold words in front of him now.
"What do you mean...... Am I supposed to be a reckless man who is insensitive and treats human life like a mustard? ”
There was still no anger in Dong Zhuo's tone.
Xu Rong didn't have the slightest fear in her eyes, as if she didn't care what she said, she said to Dong Zhuo coldly:
"It's not a reckless man, Lord Xiangguo has been fighting all his life, and he is familiar with political affairs, saying that you are a reckless man, there will be no shrewd people in the sky. It's just that there is still a problem in the concubine's body and mind, please ask Lord Xiangguo for advice. ”
"Hahaha......"
Seeing Xu Rong praising him, Dong Zhuo couldn't help laughing, although Xu Rong's tone was lukewarm, but the words were always an affirmation of him, which made Dong Zhuo laugh out loud at once.
"If you have any questions, just tell me."
"So...... Lord Xiangguo, the concubine just wants to ask: Why didn't you kill the concubine? The crimes committed by the concubine are too numerous to mention, and in the words of the people of the world, they can be described as full of evil. ”
Xu Rong said with a slight smile, she was clearly begging for death, but her eyes were incomprehensible: they were a pair of eyes as clear as jade, completely without the determination in the eyes of those who were about to die, without the reluctance and cowardice of cowards who were greedy for life and afraid of death, and without the hero's heroism and tragedy in treating death as home. It's just a simple, pure doubt, as if the question she asked was as easy as whether she should eat fish or chicken today, not just looking at life and death, but a pair of eyes that completely saw through the world.
Dong Zhuo restrained his sneering expression and became serious: as if at this time, he had turned back into the former general who knelt in front of "Mr. Xu" and listened to the teachings.
“…… You continue. ”
Dong Zhuo saw Xu Rong pause, so he motioned for her to continue.
"Since the truth that the concubine is a woman has been known to Lord Xiangguo, no matter how Lord Xiangguo punishes the concubine, the concubine has no complaints. However, now that Lord Xiangguo is undecided, he is afraid that he will miss the opportunity and bring about his own trouble. ”
Xu Rong said, smiling lightly at Dong Zhuo, slightly revealing her white tiny teeth, her smile was like a spring breeze, which made Dong Zhuo's heart ripple, and he felt a little dizzy in an instant.
"Please see that the concubine has contributed a little bit to you, and listen to the concubine's words: Now the sins committed by the concubine have angered all the people in the world, if the adult can behead the concubine at this time, although it cannot make the people of the world believe, but it can also reverse part of the situation for the adult, so as not to put the adult in a desperate situation of common anger."
After speaking, Xu Rong winked at Dong Zhuo naughtily, and then gestured at his neck, which meant ...... It was clear that Dong Zhuo would immediately push her out and behead her.
Dong Zhuo was stunned for a moment, but he immediately waved his hand and said to Xu Rong in a loud voice:
"What if I don't want you to die?"
A puzzled look appeared on Xu Rong's face again:
"Why?"
Dong Zhuo was slightly annoyed, his palm was clenched into a huge fist, and he slammed the next few cases a few times, knocking all the fruits on the cases to the ground.
Xu Rong hurriedly leaned over and picked up all the fallen fruits, and while picking them up, she said to Dong Zhuo:
"Lord Xiangguo, if there are many people who don't have enough to eat today, how can you waste food so much? Don't underestimate these few fruits, when many people are in a desperate situation, even a pot of water and a fruit can save their lives. ”
Seeing Xu Rong counting himself down while carefully picking up the fruit from under a few cases, Dong Zhuo couldn't cry or laugh at this time, and the anger in his stomach dissipated at once: this woman's thinking is really very strange.
Xu Rong picked up the fruit, glanced at Dong Zhuo, and then sighed lightly:
"Presumably, Lord Xiangguo is pampered all day long, and such sweet fruits are regarded as nothing, since adults don't look down on them, then they are eaten by concubines, and they are not spoiled food."
After speaking, she didn't care about the image of a woman in her position, and ate these fruits in a big gulp.
Dong Zhuo was stunned to look at this delicate and unrefined girl, but with strange behavior, she ate these fruits while protesting to herself with her eyes: it seemed that she was still dissatisfied with her behavior of slapping these fruits on the ground just now. The sky can be seen: it is clear that she provoked herself first!
Seeing that the girl was about to finish eating these fruits, Dong Zhuo couldn't help it, such a beautiful girl swallowed the fruit in front of him regardless of her image, but it was also a beautiful dish, and even made Dong Zhuo mouthful, it seemed that these fruits were really rare delicacy. So, Dong Zhuo also stretched out his hand and ate the rest of the fruit in one go.
Xu Rong had already finished eating the fruit in her hand at this time, she gently wiped a pair of jade hands with an embroidered handkerchief, wiped her small mouth clean, and then looked at Dong Zhuo and smiled:
"Isn't Sangkoku-sama not eating? Why did you backtrack later? ”
Dong Zhuo couldn't help laughing, he was so old, it was rare for him to take a big mouth in front of such a girl, like those young people.
"Fruit is very good for the human body, it can clear heat and remove poison, Lord Xiangguo, the food you eat all day is too strong, and it is not good for your body, eat a few more mouthfuls of fruit today, and it can be regarded as extinguishing the fire for you."
Dong Zhuo said with a smile:
"Firefighting? Why do you want to put out my fire now? ”
Xu Rong also pursed his lips and smiled:
"Because...... What the concubine is going to say next, if Lord Xiangguo has a lot of anger in his chest, he is afraid that he will be furious if he doesn't hear half of it, and then walk away. ”
"Oh? Then you will be allowed to say that it is fine. ”
"So, the concubine is rude......"
Xu Rong bowed to Dong Zhuo, and then said:
"Lord Xiangguo, you are a person in politics, although you are in power, but you are also on the cusp, the world wants you to be ruined, and there are many people who want you to be ruined and have no corpses, like a carp crossing the river. You people, who have worked hard all your life, have exhausted all your organs, and what you have done is power, the supreme power? If you kill the concubine, then those who raise troops under the pretext of Xiangguo's brutality and killing will lose at least half of the reason, even if the death of the concubine cannot make the princes outside the Guanwai retreat, but it can also win back some people's hearts for Xiangguo, not to the point where the world is fighting together. You are Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhongying, and the position you are in now is destined to be a figure who will go down in history. But it's hard to say whether you will leave a notoriety or prestige for future generations. In the impression of the concubine, you are not a person who simply covets the beauty of a woman and is unwilling to kill the concubine. ”
Xu Rong finished speaking in one breath, and seeing that Dong Zhuo was not as angry as she feared, he continued:
"Killing the concubine body will be beneficial to Lord Xiangguo and will not harm at all;"
"But if you don't kill the concubine, then there must be a hundred harms to Lord Xiangguo and no benefit, so serious, I hope that Xiangguo will consider it and adopt it by himself, don't let down your reputation Dong Zhongying."
After Xu Rong finished speaking, he still looked indifferent, and looked at Dong Zhuo with a faint smile.
Dong Zhuo was silent for a long time, and then he asked in a low voice:
"You...... Do you want to die like that? ”
"The concubine doesn't want to die, but ...... The concubine is for the sake of Lord Xiangguo, and I hope that Lord Xiangguo will think twice. ”
Xu Rong had no fear of death on his face, which surprised Dong Zhuo.
"But, I ...... Never let you die. ”
"Why?"
Xu Rong asked lightly, and the question returned to the original point.
Dong Zhuo leaned back a little tiredly, his eyes closed slightly, and in the haze, Xu Rong's pretty figure seemed to have completely turned into the woman who made him heartbroken and haunted by his dreams......
"Why can't I keep you? I have killed countless people and made meritorious contributions, for so many years, I have climbed step by step to my current position, just hoping to let you be able to look at Jiuquan, let you understand, and let your people understand that I, Dong Zhongying, am by no means a mediocre man who has done nothing all my life! But...... Why can't you stay with me? If this is the will of heaven, then even if I, Dong Zhuo, act against the sky, I will make you stay with me for a long time! ”
Looking at Dong Zhuo, who was already a little confused at this time, Xu Rong said coldly:
"You're just a mortal, so what if you can dominate the world? Against the sky? It's up to you? ”
Dong Zhuo's original haze was completely shattered by Xu Rong's words, he suddenly opened a pair of bloodshot eyes, and glared at Xu Rong: This cardamom girl who looks very similar to that woman, but she leaves no room for speech, and refuses to give him even the slightest dream?
"Did you know...... How similar are you to her? ”
Dong Zhuo said with a sigh and looked at Xu Rong with regret.
Xu Rong looked at Dong Zhuo indifferently and said coldly:
"How do you know, but what can you do if you don't know?"
Then, she didn't wait for Dong Zhuo to attack, so she sneered:
"Tell you: No matter how similar the person you are talking about is to the concubine, the concubine is not the same person. Absolutely~Yes~No~Yes~! (To be continued.) )
