Chapter 101: Descendants of the Wu Clan
Although he had been prepared in his heart, Jian Ning's words still deeply pierced Long Zeye's heart.
Jian Ning resented him? But he didn't have a grudge.
"Now, I'm here to ask only one thing. Where were you when I was in trouble? Jian Ning can't forget jì, in the memory of the picture of the woman often crying in the middle of the night.
She was originally happy and carefree, she lost her father all of a sudden, lost her support, and faced all kinds of changes one after another, and even more had to support a whole restaurant with a small body, how sad and helpless it should be.
Long Zeye faced Jian Ning's questioning, and he was silent. didn't help in time at the beginning, and he did have his troubles. At that time, there was a riot in the northwest, and he was preoccupied with dealing with state affairs.
But after that, he did watch Jian Ning struggling and didn't lend a hand, because he was angry that Jian Ning never thought of asking him for help, and he didn't even bring a word to himself. In a fit of rage, he withdrew the people who had secretly stayed by Jian Ning's side.
But what I didn't expect was that this gamble became the biggest miss.
He tried to forget about the little man's existence, and devoted all his energy to dealing with state affairs.
But for so many years, paying attention to Jian Ning's situation from time to time has long become his terrible habit. In just two months, he felt like years had passed. After all, he still lost to his own heart
Long Zeye arranged the affairs in the palace, and secretly went to Yangxin County. But to his surprise, in just two months, things changed dramatically again.
When she took advantage of Jian Ning's outing, when she found her, she looked at her eyes as strange or strange. It's like when I saw her before.
Long Zeye had an inexplicable panic in his heart, and he stepped forward and grabbed Jian Ning regardless of it. "Why didn't you come to me?" ”
But Jian Ning's answer once again made him fall into an ice cellar. She really forgot about herself again!
Long Zeye felt strange in his heart, and immediately sent Banyun to investigate. But nothing was gained. In a moment of anger, Long Zeye once suspected that Jian Ning was deliberate. went straight back to the palace and didn't care about it anymore.
It wasn't until later that the spies beside Jian Ning sent back the news, and when Jian Ning was injured and unconscious and received the news, he immediately left all the national affairs and went to Yangxin County.
But when he arrived in Yangxin County, Jian Ning had already woken up, and that day was the time when Jian Ning confronted Bo Gong for Liu Leshan.
He has been secretly watching how wonderful that little person is, step by step, with his own strength to save Liu Leshan.
After that, he wanted to go to the Taste Garden. I'm going to explain the previous things to her and take her back to the palace. But what he didn't expect was that she let him see even more wonderful cooking performances.
He was deeply attracted, and of course he gradually discovered that this Jian Ning seemed to be very different from the Jian Ning in his memory. According to the reports of the spies over the years, Jian Ning didn't know how to cook at all.
Until more than a year after Jane Baiwei's death, she would not. If she already had such a ability at that time, I am afraid that there would be no storage of Baiwei Lou.
In order to find out this qiē, Long Zeye secretly stayed in Yangxin County for a long time, watching how Jian Ning solved all the problems step by step. Bring the food garden back to life.
watched how Jian Ning made all kinds of novel things, until the end of the Ruyi Workshop. Long Zeye finally realized what he had missed in the past year.
He frantically sent someone to check all the things that Jian Ning had done for more than a year. But to his disappointment, he still hadn't solved the mystery of Jian Ning's body.
Later, the Empress Dowager's birthday was imminent, and envoys from all over the world came to Yuan Chu to congratulate her birthday, and the quadrennial God of Food Race was about to begin, in order not to make people suspicious, Long Zeye had to go back to the palace first.
"It was true that I didn't do enough, and I hope you can forgive me. But now that you're with me, why can't we be together? Long Zeye thought for a long time and said, "Now I may not be able to give you enough status." But I can give you all the love. ”
Jian Ning could see the sincerity in Long Zeye's eyes, although she was not the original Jian Ning. But inherited all her memories, those things. It's as if you've experienced everything yourself.
If it was Jian Ning before, under Long Zeye's sincere treatment, he might slowly accept the current Yiqiē and stay by Long Zeye's side to be his concubine.
But Jian Ning couldn't do it, she had a deep-rooted concept of "monogamy" in her heart, but the man in front of her was the most unlikely person to stay with a woman.
"Your Majesty, the emperor's love makes people walk on thin ice, I can't afford it."
When she said this, Jian Ning's heart felt a pain obviously. She didn't know if it was a feeling that belonged to this body, or a feeling that belonged to her own soul.
Before, she was bent on asking Long Zeye to understand, but when she really met Long Zeye face to face, she didn't know where to start.
"Ning'er, do you have to hurt me like this?" Long Zeye asked with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
Faced with such a question, Jian Ning had no way to answer at all, so she could only choose to remain silent.
"Ning'er, no matter what happened before, now that you are by my side, I will never let go." Long Zeye's tone was full of firmness, "The fate of you and me is destined by God, you have forgotten me more than once, but you finally came to my side." ”
Long Zeye had already learned from Le Ling before Jian Ning entered the palace that Jian Ning's memories had been restored. He didn't care how Le Ling did it, and he didn't care what Jian Ning thought of him now, he just wanted to keep her.
That night, Jian Ning and Long Zeye stayed in the small kitchen of Yuqing Xiaozhu for a long time. But in the end, Jian Ning still didn't go to Weiyang Palace with Long Zeye. This also means that Jian Ning refused to sleep.
Except for Qianlan, everyone in Yuqing Xiaozhu felt sorry for Jian Ning, and everyone became more and more unable to see through what kind of relationship this Concubine Yi had with the emperor?
That night, Jian Ning lay in bed and couldn't sleep for a long time
"Do you regret knowing this qiē now?" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in the room.
Faced with the sudden man's voice in the middle of the night, Jian Ning was already not surprised. This time he didn't even get up, just lay on the bed like that, and said lightly through the bed curtain: "Your ability is really not small, is this harem also coming and going so freely?" ”
"The harem is indeed heavily guarded, but it is not a place that cannot be entered." Wu Shi still stood where he came in and said to Jian Ning, "This time, I'm here to talk to you about cooperation." ”
"Cooperation? Now that I have remembered everything, you can still stand in front of me so calmly and talk to me about cooperation? Jian Ning suddenly sat up and said, "If you hadn't used witchcraft on me to make me amnesiac, my fate would have been like this!" ”
Whether it is Jian Ning before or his current self, to this situation, Wu Shi can be said to be a major driving force.
If he hadn't erased Jian Ning's memory at the beginning, maybe Jian Ning would have followed Long Zeye into the palace, and he would not have been killed later and lost his life. And if she hadn't lost her life, then she wouldn't have come to this ghost place inexplicably.
"Haha," Wu Shi suddenly laughed, "You can't help but think too highly of me." Witchcraft does have some things that people can't reach, but even the ancestors of the witch clan don't have the ability to travel through time and space, and defy the heavens, let alone me now. ”
"Jian Ning's tragic death is indeed unbearable, but with such fate, no one can do anything. As for you, you are here because of your fate. What I did at the beginning was just a matter of conforming to God's will. ”
Jian Ning was deeply shocked by Wu Shi's words. She never said to Wu Shi that she was actually a lonely soul from another world, even in a few conversations, she never revealed anything, and Wu Shi actually saw her strangeness at a glance.
"Can you tell I'm from another world?" Jian Ning asked in surprise.
"Want to hear where I came from?" Wu Shi didn't answer Jian Ning's question directly, but said to himself, "About a thousand years ago, there was no country on this continent, there was only one god race, the Wu race. The people of the Wu tribe are commanded by the heavens and have supreme divine power to protect the inhabitants of this continent for generations. ”
"In order for the Wu population to prosper, there will be successors. From the very beginning, the Wics did not forbid the union of their clansmen and humans, but such unions would eventually have negative effects. That is, the divine power inherited by the descendants of the Wu clan is becoming more and more impure, and the power is constantly weakening. ”
"And over the course of a few hundred years, the population on this continent has grown. When there are many people, there will be more strife. Gradually, many small tribes appeared, and there were frequent fights between the tribes, and the stronger tribes continued to annex the smaller tribes. ”
"Eventually, some powerful nations have emerged on this continent. People began to be blinded by power and money, and from then on, there was a lot of gunsmoke everywhere. At that time, in order to avoid the involvement of the Wu clan, the patriarch and elders of the Wu clan took the entire Wu clan to live in seclusion in the mountains. ”
"After more than 100 years of war, the war gradually subsided with the dominance of the Eastern Merchant Kingdom. The Wicans have also returned to the people's field of vision. ”
"But to the surprise of all the Wu Clan elders, the fighting has only subsided for a few short decades. With the arrival of a man who does not belong to this world, a real catastrophe officially begins. ”
Hearing this, Jian Ning probably already had the answer in her heart. She had read Ruan Feichen's handwritten confession letter, and then combined the time and general situation with what Wu Shi had just said, and knew that the catastrophe he was talking about was the gunpowder war that almost wiped out the entire continent at the beginning, and the person who did not belong to this world was Ruan Feichen.
"You're a descendant of the Wu Clan?" Jian Ning lifted the bed curtain, got up and put on a piece of clothing, and said slowly. (To be continued)
