Chapter 111: Eternal Parting
"Ah Chen, if you want to leave, I can take you away now."
"Presumptuous, Xiao Chen is now my wife."
"Wife? Beat her up on your wedding night, and dare to say that she is your wife? β
"I only know that yesterday's incident was my fault, and I was also blinded by hatred and anger for a while. I just wanted revenge on her like that, and I wanted to repay her twice the hurt and heartache she had caused me. However, I found ...... While hurting her, my heart was bleeding at the same time. He smiled lightly, his face was a little relieved, and a little helpless, "Xiao Chen, I know that you are only forced to marry here, if you want to leave, you can leave now." Father and Qi Guo, I will find a way to hide it. β
Mu Qianchen looked at him, her eyes moistened a little, she turned her head, wiped away the tears that slipped from the corners of her eyes with her hands, and smiled slightly, "I was forced to do so, but I was not forced to marry Weiguo, but I had to like you a long time ago when I was in Yongwangfu." You asked me before, how true and how fake my friendship with you is...... Do you know how sad I feel when I hear that. β
"Kotatsu ......"
"Wen Yan, although I hurt you before...... But when I married Weiguo this time, I just wanted to be your wife. Fulfill my promise to put on the prettiest clothes and be your wife. She didn't know why she couldn't help but say so many things that sounded numb, she just felt that she was very wronged in her heart. She wanted to sue him, to tell him all the pain in her heart, and let him know.
"What happened before...... Ah Chen also has her troubles...... You are not her, you will not understand that Ah Chen at that time could not disobey Shen Yao's order no matter what......"
"But now, not anymore." Mu Qianchen sat up with a smile, gently grabbed Yun Wenyan's hand, and there was a happy smile between his eyebrows. A couple for a lifetime, she thinks that Yun Wenyan is the one who can give her happiness. "It's just, chasing the wind, how did you come to defend the country?"
"Someone was worried that you would be wronged, and as soon as I was done with the business over there, he immediately asked me to rush over. Now it seems that it is necessary for me to come. Xia Zhufeng leaned on the cabinet, looked coldly at the two people snuggled together, and shook his head helplessly.
"Since you're here, don't go, that place...... There is no trace of human touch, don't leave it......" Mu Qianchen lowered his head, thinking of Shen Yao, there was still a faint sourness in his heart. Yun Wenyan seemed to understand her thoughts, smiled at her, and whispered in her ear: "Xiao Chen, I understand, but I believe that you will never leave me." β
After that day, Mu Qianchen asked Xia Zhufeng for an ointment to remove the scar, and wiped out the scar left for Shen Yao on his right shoulder. She thought, just let the thing go with the scar disappearing. She just wants the person who can join hands with her and stay together quietly until the end of her life.
In the past four years, he and her have been in love with each other, watching the sun rise and moon and the flowers bloom together, becoming the most enviable pair among all the princes and nobles of the country. After this winter, he took her out of here and went to seclusion in a place where no one disturbed her, and spent the rest of her life in peace.
But God seems to be unwilling to let her go, or Shen Yao is unwilling to let her go.
She and Yun Wenyan spent four years of ordinary life in Weiguo affectionately and plainly, but they didn't expect that Shen Yao borrowed the hand of neighboring Jiang Guo to provoke a war between Wei and Jiang, and Qi sent 300,000 troops as Jiang Guo's support to besiege Wei Guo. In such a situation, Mu Qianchen has become an enemy in the hearts of the whole country.
Yun Wenyan led the troops to the battle, but Mu Qianchen was placed under house arrest by the Emperor Wei in the palace, and he was not allowed to take a step out of the palace without permission.
Mu Qianchen knew Shen Yao's methods, and he knew the purpose of Shen Yao's move. He has always been the culprit who provoked this war.
She began to be afraid, afraid that the evil she had created before would lead to retribution, and she was even more afraid that it would not be herself who would be punished, but Yun Wenyan. During the days of house arrest in the palace, she fasted and recited Buddha all day long, chanted sutras and prayed, just hoping that Yunwenyan would be safe and worry-free. But that terrifying message still came, the traitor leaked the secret, the army led by Yun Wenyan strayed into the trap, and was besieged by Qi Jiang's two ** teams, and the existing grain and grass of the army can only last for half a month at most.
When Mu Qianchen heard the news, he didn't lose the slightest sadness and panic, but smiled lightly, picked up the long sword that he hadn't picked up in four years, killed the soldiers sent by the emperor to monitor the Yongwang Mansion, and rode his horse day and night, tirelessly rushing towards Jiang Guo.
Wen Yan, you must wait for me. Four years ago, I could have saved you, and this time it's the same.
And she was a step too late this time, when she arrived there, all that was left on the endless snowfield was the corpses of countless soldiers of the Patriotic Kingdom and the broken Guardian ** Banner standing alone on the blood.
Under the threat of starvation and death, the patriotic soldiers planned to fight on their backs, but the result was that all the 100,000 troops were killed, and Yun Wenyan was also martyred. Jiang soldiers hung his body on the city tower to undermine the morale of the country, and did not even leave him a chance to enter the ground.
Mu Qianchen rode to the high city wall and saw him from a distance. The person who used to smile softly at her, the person who promised to stay with him, the person who promised him to go home unscathed, the person who loved her the most in the world...... Now it has become a cold corpse that can't laugh or speak. The humiliated were hung by the enemy on the tower, and were allowed to be beaten by the wind and the sun and snow.
"Wen Yanβ" She fell from her horse with weak legs, collapsed to the ground weakly, looked at his corpse, and cried out heartbreakingly. His heart hurts, even more so than the last time he stabbed him with a knife with his own hands. His body swayed in the wind, and though he was far away, she felt like he was smiling at herself. As usual when I came back from going out, I smiled and hugged her in my arms, and said to myself gently, Xiaochen, I'm back.
She trembled and picked up her sword, jumped up from the ground, flew to the tower, cut the rope that bound him, and hugged his cold corpse, her whole body trembling.
Jiang Guo's soldiers chased after her from behind and released countless long arrows at her, but she didn't want to hide, she didn't care, she just wanted to take him home quickly. He is gone, what difference does life and death make to her. Now Mu Qianchen is just a soulless shell, her heart, her soul, had already left with him the moment she saw his body.
