Chapter 157: The Covenant of Childhood (Added to the Orchid of the Deep Valley)

PS: Some things must be explained clearly, some insistence must be let go, and some people must always believe wholeheartedly in order to spend their heads together.

And some ups and downs are for the sake of not giving up in the future.

Blindly unilateral efforts will be tiring, and it will always be chilling if you keep doing so.

Only when two people work together will a love last......

I'm Li Che Dang...... I speak for Li Che~~

When he said this, he suddenly closed his mouth, his face showed a little annoyance, and after a few entanglements, he frowned in annoyance: "Ye didn't believe in fate, but now this scene can't help but be unbelievable!" ”

After saying that, he leaned on the carriage and closed his eyes, obviously unwilling to say more.

Liu Xuan was a little baffled by his words, she just made him unhappy and said it, it was not good to hold it in her heart, especially if he was a wanton person, but how could he be involved in fate?

He said that if he changed someone else, he would rob it, which Liu Xuan can understand because Li Che is the prince of a country, but this letter of fate made her unable to figure out how to think about it.

Deng Yu's appearance obviously didn't want to talk about it, Liu Xuan could only sigh, obediently sat down beside him, looked at his stunning face and said, "If you have any dissatisfaction in the future, just say it, I don't like your appearance." ”

Deng Yu didn't answer when he heard this, but just when Liu Xuan thought he wouldn't answer, he saw him close his eyes and hummed.

Deng Yu is a person who will do what he says, since he has responded, he will no longer suppress his anger as he did a few days ago, Liu Xuan was relieved when he heard this.

After a few days of turbulence, the carriage finally slowly drove into the city of Yizhou. The old house of the Liu family is still there, and the other courtyard that Liu Xuan set up from the front is still there, but she doesn't want to go back, she is trying to discuss with Deng Yu to see if she is looking for a place to rest in the inn first.

It's just that before she could speak, she heard someone outside ask aloud: "Dare to ask if there are Deng Gongzi and Miss Liu on the carriage." ”

Listening to the voice was a young man, since he knew their identity and stopped the car, there must be something, Deng Yu ordered Huyi to stop the carriage.

Although the carriage stopped, the curtain was not lifted, and Deng Yu sat in the carriage and asked, "Who is coming?" ”

The man said respectfully outside: "Xiaguan's surname is Sun Mingze." It is a member of the Sun family. It is also the new Taishou of Yizhou, who was ordered by the master to welcome the son and the girl. ”

When Sun Ze said this, he paused and said, "The girl and the junior official have met once in the master's study. ”

When Liu Xuan heard this, she couldn't help but remember that the first time she went to Li Che's study, he once said to more than a dozen young officials in the study: "She is." I've seen it. ”

Now it seems. This Sun Ze was among the dozen or so young officials.

It's just that it's been so far. She still didn't understand the meaning of Li Che's words.

Liu Xuan looked at Deng Yu, waiting for him to come up with an idea.

Deng Yu snorted coldly: "Your master just asked you to pick her up and her master?" Is there no other command? ”

"I can't hide anything from my son." Sun Ze said outside the carriage: "The master also asked the junior official to bring a message to the son, if you don't want the tragedy to happen again." Childe should know what to do. ”

Liu Xuan listened to these inexplicable words, and intuitively looked at Deng Yu, but saw that his face had a heavy look that he had never seen before.

When Liu Xuan saw his demeanor, she inexplicably began to panic in her heart.

After half a ring, Deng Yucai glanced at Liu Xuan with a complicated expression, stretched out his hand to put on the mask, and commanded outward: "Lead the way ahead!" ”

Sun Ze's response was heard outside, and after a while, the carriage began to drive again.

Liu Xuan thought that Sun Ze would take them to Taishou Mansion to settle down, but he never thought that the carriage would pass through the city and drive to the suburbs.

The carriage went all the way to a hill on the outskirts.

The carriage finally stopped at a mountain annex, which looked like everything was new, and must have been built no more than a year ago.

Liu Xuan got out of the carriage behind Deng Yu, and finally saw Sun Ze who led them here, Liu Xuan didn't have any special impression of him, just a little familiar, it seemed that he must be among those officials.

Sun Ze stepped forward and said to Liu Xuan with a smile: "Miss Liu is still satisfied with this place?" ”

Liu Xuan didn't quite understand why he asked her if she was satisfied, but she still nodded honestly: "It's elegant and chic here, and I'm satisfied." ”

Sun Ze smiled slightly and was a little humble: "This house was built by the order of the master when the lower officials took office last year, so that one day the girl would have a place to rest when she returned." ”

Liu Xuan was silent when she heard this, she never thought that Li Che would deliberately order the construction of a house, just so that she could return one day and have a place to settle, and she never thought that Li Che would have already seen through her mind and guessed it.

Sun Ze obviously didn't expect Liu Xuan to reply, he pointed to the mountain behind the courtyard and said: "The girl's deceased is buried there, if the girl goes to worship, she can go through the back door of the courtyard." ”

Liu Xuan was completely stunned at this moment, she finally understood why Li Che ordered to build a separate courtyard here.

Sun Ze didn't call her when he saw her stunned, and guided Deng Yu, who had a complicated gaze, to walk towards the courtyard.

Liu Xuan was stunned for a while, she came back to her senses and smiled at Deng Yu, and then entered the courtyard with him.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, Liu Xuan found that everything in it was very familiar, it turned out that it was built according to the courtyard where Li Che had stayed, Liu Xuan walked in silently, looking at the familiar pattern and the familiar grass and trees.

Sun Ze took Liu Xuan and Deng Yu to the backyard and left.

The courtyard is very clean, and everything is readily available, obviously someone here has been cleaning for a long time, Liu Xuan and Deng Yu found a courtyard to live in, not that the two of them have to live in a courtyard, but there is only one courtyard in this courtyard.

Although there is only one courtyard, it is very large, and there are three main rooms in it, and there are several ear rooms, which is more than enough for them to live in.

Qiu Ju, Dalong and others were busy settling, so Liu Xuan went to find Deng Yu and asked him to go with him to worship the red lotus.

Hearing that the two of them were going to worship, Dalong took out some paper money, candles, and incense cases from the ear room: "These are all prepared in the ear room, I will go with the master and the girl." ”

The placement of manpower is sufficient. Liu Xuan glanced at the paper money in Da Long's hand with a complicated expression, and then nodded with a smile.

Out of the back door of the courtyard is a path that winds its way down into the valley and then spirals up to another hillside on which stands a lonely tomb.

Although the tomb stood alone, it was very clean all around, and there was not a single weed on the grave, so it was obviously tended.

Deng Yu saw the inscription on the tombstone at a glance, and was slightly surprised: "Long Yi? ”

Liu Xuan knelt down in front of the tomb. The voice was a little muffled: "Hmm." Li Che originally wanted Long Yi to accept her. ”

She turned back to Deng Yu and smiled: "This is Hongtao, she is the maid that my grandfather bought for me when I was three years old, although it is the name of the maid, she is closer to me than a sister." We ate and slept together for a while. If it weren't for the fact that it was older later. If she has to abide by the way of the Lord's servant, I will surely be a sister to her. ”

Hearing this, Deng Yu took the mask and squatted down beside her, taking the paper money handed by Da Long. One by one, they were thrown into the fire: "Don't be too sad, she knows about you and you, and she must not want you to apologize for her in the spirit of heaven." ”

Liu Xuan responded in a low voice while burning the paper money: "She exchanged her life for me, but she didn't know that even if she didn't protect me, I would be fine, and her death was not worth it." ”

A sentence is not worth it, she exhausted the resentment in her heart, and also expressed her apologies and grievances, Deng Yu looked at her deeply when she heard the words: "Things in this world are never fixed, what you think is not necessarily true, whether it is worth it or not is not up to you, but by the person who pays. ”

Liu Xuan half-lowered her eyes: "I can't forgive myself after all, and I can't ...... it."

She didn't say the following words, but Deng Yu knew it, he was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "If it were me, I would have taken you away directly under such circumstances, but he is different, what he has always wanted is your willingness, he is three years old as a prince, and the first sentence he learned is to abandon love, you are already an outlier." ”

In fact, Liu Xuan didn't know in her heart that Li Che had retreated again and again to her, but she couldn't let go of it, whether it was Hongzhi or Steward Hu, she and he were the culprits in all kinds of bloody cases of the Liu family, let her let go, let her relax, she couldn't do it.

But she wondered, "Why would you help him speak?" ”

Deng Yu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then frowned: "If you want to win him, you are also upright, how can you be, how can you be the kind of villain who hurts people behind your back." ”

Liu Xuan raised her eyebrows: "I don't know who it was, I was specially reminded at the beginning, but it was Long Yi who deliberately let go of She Huanxue." ”

Deng Yu's face flashed with embarrassment when he heard this: "Didn't the master ...... you at that time?"

He suddenly paused, and his eyes drooped half a point again: "Ye was afraid that you would be deceived at that time!" ”

After he finished speaking, he raised his eyes and glanced at Liu Xuan, and said with a straight face: "Actually, you really can't blame him for this." ”

Liu Xuan was suddenly surprised: "Why? ”

Deng Yu sighed and said: "You should know that he is busy with state affairs, and the one who can let him go out of Beijing to chase after him must be powerful, that She Huanxue and her senior brother Gu Rong, there has always been a force behind them secretly helping them." The good hand in their hands is that all of his tiger group may not be able to take it, especially that Gu Rong's martial arts are above Long Yi. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Xuan understood a little: "So he can only make Ji force She Huanxue to make a move?" ”

Deng Yu nodded: "That's right, the first time he didn't deliberately let go of She Huanxue, but Gu Rong exchanged his life for his life, only later did he change his mind, although Gu Rong died, and the forces behind She Huanxue were also lost by half, but the person behind her was still unknown, and he had to let her go." He wanted to take you away, if you left, She Huanxue would go to find you even if he wanted revenge, but you didn't, you stayed, and the root cause of the bane was left. ”

Liu Xuan was shocked when she heard this, her eyes were full of shock, she seemed to be a little unable to come back to her senses, and muttered: "It turns out ...... But did I kill them? ”

Deng Yu seemed a little unbearable when he saw her like this, and reached out to take her who was kneeling on the ground into his arms.

At this moment, Liu Xuan needed a chest to rely on, and as soon as she entered her arms, she buried herself in his chest, and her voice was choked: "It turns out that they were killed by me." ”

"It's not." Deng Yu's flawless chin rested against the top of her soft hair, and said slowly: "They weren't killed by you, all this is just a mistake, his heart is as cold as he never thought that She Huanxue would be so crazy, otherwise he would not have the intention of giving the red lotus to Long Yi, he thought that the people he left behind could keep you, and what you care about, but he miscalculated She Huanxue's madness, and he could only guard you at that time." ”

Liu Xuan was silent when he heard this, but the low sobbing and choking still made Deng Yu frown slightly, and he said softly: "You don't have to blame yourself, you didn't know her identity when you first saw She Huanxue, let alone her madness and strength, no one has the ability to predict the future, all this is not his fault, let alone yours......

After he finished speaking, he sighed lowly, reached out and stroked her hair, and stroked it down the strands, his movements were very gentle, and it seemed that it was not her hair that he wanted to smooth, but the wound in her heart.

After half a ring, Liu Xuan finally choked up and opened her mouth: "They ...... Will they hate me? ”

"No, it won't." Deng Yu replied decisively: "I have never had a grudge, how can I hate." ”

Yes, they trust her so much, love her, and never have a grudge against her, even if Hongzhi died to save her, how can they hate her?

She finally figured it out, and she figured it out, and the thorn in her heart didn't hurt so much, she raised her head in his arms, and asked softly with red and swollen eyes, "Why did you suddenly help him speak?" ”

Deng Yu was slightly stunned, his eyes looked into the distance, as if he had fallen into some kind of memory, and after a while, he let out a long sigh, and his voice was gloomy: "This is my agreement with him when I was a child, if one day, I will never let the tragedy repeat itself......"

Liu Xuan didn't ask him why he had such a strange agreement with Li Che when he was a child, nor did she ask him what such a tragedy was, looking at his gloomy look, she knew that this was the secret he shared with Li Che, and it was also a pain that the two of them couldn't touch.

Liu Xuan left Deng Yu's arms, and smiled at him with difficulty: "It's rare to see Hongyuan, let's say something happy." ”

Deng Yu retracted his gaze, looked at her and replied in a low voice: "Hmm." ”

In fact, Liu Xuan has a lot of things in her heart that she wants to say to Hongyuan, she wants to talk to her about her pain and guilt, she also wants to talk to her about her struggles, and she also wants to talk to her about Li Che and Deng Yu in her heart these days.

She wanted to talk a lot to Hongyi, but in the end, the words only turned into one sentence: "I will live well, as you hope." ”

She figured it out and figured it out, Honglu died for her, not for her guilt, but for her to live happily, otherwise Hongtao would not have thought about her own happiness before she died.

She should be happy, and she will be happy, just as Red Lotus hopes.

Liu Xuan knelt silently in front of the red tomb for a long time, although she did not speak, but she had already said everything she wanted to say in her heart, she knelt there, Deng Yu silently half-squatted into the incense pile to burn the paper money.

The beating light of the fire reflected his stunning face.

It wasn't until the sky was getting dark that Liu Xuan got up and said to Deng Yu with a smile: "Let's go back." (To be continued......)
