Chapter 089: The Mystery of a Tragic Victory
Chen Qiuniang shook her head and said: "No, I'll stay here, I'll get out in a few days, this place is dangerous, there are countless hidden piles, it's not easy for you to come, now you want to take me a person with zero force value to leave, I'm afraid it's unlikely." β
"If you don't leave, you won't be able to fight this battle. You can become the hole card in the hands of these bandits at any time. We'll be bogged down when the time comes. Lu Chen said very strictly.
"So, we still have to withdraw our troops." Chen Qiuniang looked at Lu Chen very seriously, and her tone was firm.
Lu Chen also looked down at her and said very sternly: "I came on order, so I must take you away." And this battle must be fought. If others are eyeing you, you will be careful everywhere and make the other party more uneasy. β
"Therefore, you will reveal all your family backgrounds." Chen Qiuniang took over, she understood the reason why this battle had to be fought. This is the Zhang family using this to show the military strength of Shuzhong and show it to the emperor who is far away in Bianjing.
"Yes." Lu Chen nodded.
"So, this battle can only be lost, not won, right?" Chen Qiuniang said. Suddenly there was something wrong in her heart, and she was excited when she heard that Zhang Ci had sent troops. People can actually put such a big blood to save her, and she can't let her family suffer losses no matter what. She was also naΓ―ve about how to turn things around, such as kidnapping Qing Shi, who controlled the command, to defeat the command and dispatch of the entire Zhuxi Mountain. But now I understand that the main purpose of people is not to save her, but to save her only by the way.
"This-" Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, and after a while, he said slowly: "I won't tell you, this battle must be won, but it must be won tragically, and it must be won with struggle." β
Victory is a fiasmal! This means sacrificing many lives. Sure enough, the general's achievements are all made up of the lives of countless pawns. The enthusiastic teenagers of Zhang's Mansion are about to be sacrificed here. And she may not be sacrificed because she is an excuse for Zhang Ci to send troops, so she sent Lu Chen to take her away.
Earlier, she was too naΓ―ve. Now it seems that seizing the opportunity to play power and strategy, sacrificing anyone at will, treating human life as a mustard, keeping it if it has use value, and discarding or sacrificing it if it has no use value.
It is the powerful family who does this, and it is behind the gate.
When Chen Qiuniang thought of this, she suddenly felt that her heart was slashed. Although she had seen the powerful house in that plane, she had never seen such specificity and cruelty.
"And I have to live, right?" Chen Qiu's mother's affection suddenly fell, and she felt that she was really ridiculous. I thought about so many countermeasures before, and just now I thought that I would work with Lu Chen to capture the thief and capture the king first, and take down Qingshi. But now I suddenly realized that people don't need to do this at all, what people think about is sacrifice, that is, heavy losses.
"Miss Chen, we originally came to save you." Lu Chen also seemed to be aware of the change in her feelings, and hurriedly said.
Chen Qiuniang looked at him, showed a bright smile, and said, "I understand, thank you." β
"Alas. What should I do about this-" Lu Chen grabbed his hair in annoyance, and after looking for a while, he found the right words and said, "What is wrong with it?" Obviously not like that. β
He spoke incoherently, and Chen Qiuniang didn't have the heart to listen. Now she is just a pawn in someone else's layout.
"Hey, I said, why are you so smart, little girl? Isn't it okay for you to be a nine-year-old girl and do something like a nine-year-old girl? After a few years, I will find a wishful husband to marry, teach my husband and children, enjoy flowers and make tea, so comfortable. Lu Chen said with a smile.
"That woman doesn't want to be cared for, protected, innocent and carefree? But every man has a life. I'm in such a bad environment, if I don't be cautious everywhere and plan everything, how can you let me live? Chen Qiuniang smiled bitterly. Whether in her previous life or in this life, her environment forced her not to be an innocent, heartless, happy person. Because there is no one to take care of her, even if there is, it is as short as a meteor, and it is too late to warm her.
Lu Chen was probably not used to this kind of conversation, so he laughed twice and said, "Anyway, don't think too much. The second son is mainly here to save you, and by the way, he also takes this opportunity to show off his dew. β
"Then Qiu Niang has thanked the second son here." Chen Qiuniang said. The mood was no longer as excited as when she first heard that Zhang Fu had sent someone to rescue her.
"Don't tell me. When you see him, thank him personally. Now while they're all scrambling, let's go. Lu Chen urged while looking out.
"Then you can't take me away now." Chen Qiuniang shook her head.
"Why?" Lu Chen asked in a low voice.
"First, the terrain of Zhuxi Mountain is complex, there are countless hidden piles, and there are many talented people here. Second, since you want to use this time to make a show, you have to make a full set, and you have to make a situation where you have come to secretly save me several times, but you have returned in vain, and you have to exaggerate a situation where it is difficult to save people, so that people can believe in your tragic victory. When Chen Qiuniang said this, she asked again, "Actually, when I was arrested, your people were watching, right?" β
Lu Chen was slightly startled, then smiled awkwardly, and said, "This, do you want to listen to the truth, or a lie?" β
"No need, you've already answered me." Chen Qiuniang said this very calmly. Although he was in his thirties in his previous and current lives and had experienced a lot of ups and downs, he was still inevitably disappointed when he heard Lu Chen's answer. She initially thought that Zhang Ci should be the dragon and phoenix among people, but later had an unpleasant quarrel with Zhang Ci, thinking that he was just a young man of the children of the family. Because she thinks that Zhang Ci is a young man's nature, although she is a little annoying about doing things, she can be forgiven. But now, he would rather her be taken away and sacrifice the lives of countless people to save her, seize such an opportunity, and plot a wrong message to Zhao Kuangyin.
Such thoughts are terrifyingly deep.
"Hey, you know, there were a lot of people who arrested you at that time. There are still many people lurking at the junction of Linqiong Mansion and Meizhou Mansion. How dare our people act rashly and startle the snakes? Lu Chen hurriedly explained, and then said, "Oh, little girl, don't be so heavy." β
"Where am I thinking about it, Zhang Ergongzi is a young hero, and he is far-sighted." Chen Qiuniang said this, but she knew that it was sour.
"Look at it, isn't your mind heavy? Can't you think of good things? We have come to save you, and we can give each other a chance to find out. It's the best of both worlds. Lu Chen said with a sigh, but his eyes were staring out of the window motionlessly.
"I didn't say anything." Chen Qiuniang quibbled, and then suddenly thought of something, and immediately asked: "The one who shouted to hurry up and release my wife in front of me can't be Zhang Ci, right?" β
"Or else?" Lu Chen asked rhetorically.
"Not Jiang Fan?" Chen Qiuniang asked, her heart already had an answer, and the whole person was very uncomfortable.
"No, it's not. Jiang Fan has been escorted back to Bianjing by his brother. It's almost past the Sword Gate at this time. Lu Chen replied, and then urged, "What you said makes sense, but the order that the second son gave me was to take you away safely." β
"Because he knows you can't take it with him. Otherwise, you can take two steps and try it. Chen Qiuniang looked at him with innocent eyes.
"Nonsense. He's not that kind of person. Lu Chen shrugged, looked outside, and said, "Let's go." I have five or six brothers at the lake. β
"If your second son-in-law really has that idea, you really can't take it away this time." Chen Qiuniang really didn't guess maliciously, or if she were her, she would do the same.
"Gone, gone." Lu Chen shouted.
Chen Qiuniang shook her head and said, "Chen Wenzheng's mother is still here. If I go, the two sides will fight. It is difficult to guarantee that these mountain bandits will not make drastic moves, which will be detrimental to Mrs. Chen. β
"You're here, Mrs. Chen's situation is fine?" Lu Chen asked rhetorically.
"Of course, you know I'm smart. Besides, Chong Guan is angry and blushing, so he has to be realistic. Chen Qiuniang was relieved at this time. She is a country girl herself, why did she let so many people be dispatched to save her? To put it bluntly, because the time and place are favorable, she has such a little use value. Since there is such a little value, then help Zhang Ci, and by the way, also protect Mrs. Chen.
"I'm not going to take you away. If I go back so empty, he will destroy me. Lu Chen shrugged.
"Hey, that's because he doesn't know I'm here, and thinks I'm a prisoner. Look at what point I'm a prisoner here. This morning, someone accompanied me to go fishing. Chen Qiuniang pointed to the surrounding items.
Lu Chen looked around, the carved wooden bed, the bedding was neat, and he couldn't help nodding and said, "Okay." I'll go back and ask again, you should be careful. β
"Okay." Chen Qiuniang replied.
Lu Chen turned to the screen, and after a while, there was no sound in the room. Chen Qiuniang didn't feel any sleepiness at this time, just sat in the house and drank tea, listening to the movement outside the house. Sure enough, after a while, I could hear the sound of bamboo horns in the surrounding mountains. This kind of thing, Chen Qiuniang had seen it in her previous life, and the mountain bandits used this to transmit news at that time, and later the mountain bandits were suppressed. This kind of thing is reduced to a country plaything.
"Quick, someone's breaking in." Someone in the courtyard hurried out, armed with weapons and beckoning people to run out.
Sure enough, it was discovered. Chen Qiuniang shrugged, thinking that this Zhuxi Mountain was really not a place to wait. However, Zhang Ci was also insidious, and Lu Chen was also counted. To be honest, if Lu Chen brought Chen Qiuniang, even if he brought a good hand, I was afraid that he would come in. When Lu Chen was caught, this tragic victory would be even more realistic.
Zhang Ci really has a good calculation. She Chen Qiuniang really didn't expect that such an experience would become a pawn for him. This person is really not simple, and the quarrel with her before may also be a kind of trick.
At this moment, Chen Qiuniang suddenly felt that this fifteen-year-old boy was already terrifyingly deep. All of a sudden, she felt like she couldn't see through this person. RS
