Chapter 484: Is She Worth It Again?
Yu Shu slept in the women's dormitory for a long time, and woke up in the afternoon, when it rained outside again, the sweltering heat of the day before yesterday was swept away, and the air was cool.
Close the doors and windows, she left the Taishi Book Garden with an umbrella, and yesterday she told Liu Zhong not to pick it up, there is no sedan chair to hire on the street at this time, walking on the wet street, step by step to dissipate the anxiety in her heart.
In prison, the more she can't panic, and in the game, Yu Shu spent a night thinking about what she should do next, in order to get rid of the responsibilities and dangers brought by the new identity of "lifebreaker".
At first glance, she only has two ways to go, the first way is to resign herself to fate, obediently become her own son with Jingchen, and make a stone brick for the prosperity of the Da'an Dynasty. Then she lived a life of detachment with a man she resented, and when she retired after her success, she let others decide whether she would continue to be prosperous and rich, or be a lackey of the good bow, and when the birds and rabbits died, whether to cook or hide.
The second way is to rather die than obey, refuse feudal superstition and arranged marriages, and then be regarded as a toast and not eat and drink, and tie her up without doing anything, and forcibly force her to worship in the cave room with Jingchen, and live a life of being imprisoned from then on, until Jingchen broke her life, waiting for her to be destroyed in addition to being killed, that is, to continue to be imprisoned.
In other words, with the words "lifebreaker" on her head, whether she cooperates or not, the rest of her life is destined to be a tragedy.
"Jingchen, Jingchen, have you ever thought from my standpoint, this lifebreaker is actually a person who is sent to death." Yu Shu walked on the road alone, and the sound of raindrops covered her self-talk.
"Da'an Woe, the body has risen and fallen, and I know such a big secret as Lu Dao, when I am useless, will they let me live. At that time, if they find a high-sounding reason to let you kill me with your own hands, I am afraid that you will do the same. β
To put it bluntly, Jingchen is like a treasure that can shake the country, and she is the key to the door where the treasure is stored, without her, this treasure cannot be opened, but when someone opens the door with the key, takes out the treasure and takes it away, the treasure is still a treasure, and she is the key. It's a waste.
Yu Shu tightened his grip on the handle of the umbrella, his face became more and more cold, he raised his eyes, and quickly glanced around-
The gray-robed passerby across the street, if she remembered correctly. Since she walked out of the gate of the Taishi Library, she has been following her not far away, and the vendor who was pushing the stall cart back home not far in front of her has never left her sight.
Before yesterday, she wouldn't have paid attention to these details at all, but now it seems that someone is secretly watching her, in case something happens to her before Jing Chen's death.
Yu Shu's eyes flashed. A sneer tugged at the corner of her mouth, it had taken her a night to determine this crucial point-
Before the treasure is opened, her key cannot be lost.
Here's the magic thing, and that's the way it is. Secretly, there is a group of ill-intentioned people staring at Jingchen, a big troublemaker, who wants bad things, and in order to stifle these rebellions, the rulers will temporarily hide her key. One won't use it, and the other is to protect her well.
In other words, now she is behind the emperor Lao Tzu!
There are advantages and disadvantages, blessings and disasters are all dependent on each other, Yu Shu knows that he has the hole cards in his hand, and if he wants to break the game, he must first find where the dead knot of this game is, so as to prescribe the right medicine.
And what she can do now is to use the convenience of Yi to figure out the secret behind Jingchen, a big security scourge-
The number of people's lives and the fortune of the country of one dynasty sounds incredible, the great safety of the people, the life-breaker, and the absurd method of cracking, where does this statement come from, will make the people in power convinced!?
She pondered all night, and this is where the knot of death lies.
***
From the north of the city to the south of the city, Yu Shu walked a long way, an oil umbrella could not cover the wind and rain, and when he returned home in the evening, half of his body was wet.
Kidney Bean moved a small pestle and sat at the bottom of the gatehouse waiting for someone, seeing her soup chicken, hurriedly shook off the cloak in her hand, stepped forward to wrap her, and pushed her to the backyard with an umbrella.
"Liu Zhong went out to pick up the girl, didn't you meet it, why did you come back in the rain, hurry up and go into the house, how good is it if you catch a cold?"
Yu Shu listened to the little girl's muttering, it was rare not to think she was annoying, but instead cooperated into the house, took off her wet clothes and climbed into bed, covered with a thin quilt, and quietly watched her busy in front of her, bringing her hot water for a while, and wiping her hair with a towel for a while.
Zhao Hui heard that Yu Shu came back wet in the backyard, so she left He Xiaochuan to the nurse, asked Chen's mother to instruct the kitchen to cook hot soup, and went to Yu Shu's room across the courtyard, saw her lying on the bed in a daze, hurriedly walked to the side, and touched her wet hair.
"Why are you drenched like this, didn't you ask Liu Zhong to pick you up, you kid too, when you see the rain is heavy, you won't find a place to hide, and come back when the rain is light, it's frozen, look at this little face."
Zhao Hui held her cold face with her hand, sensitively aware that the child had something on her mind, and was thinking about what was going on, when Yu Shu hugged her waist and buried her head in her arms.
"Mother."
Zhao Hui listened to her muffled scream, stunned for a moment, then hugged her back, "hey" in response, feeling a little sour and uncomfortable, because she wanted this child to be strong by nature, a girl's family was outside to support the faΓ§ade, never complained about being tired, how much grievance should have been suffered, and she was willing to show a little weakness in front of her.
Yu Shu hugged Zhao Hui, smelled the milk on her body, and remembered her previous life in a distracted way-
When she was a child, she couldn't remember clearly, but when she grew up, she had an opinion, and she didn't seem to be so intimate with her parents anymore, but she always watched her younger brother behaving coquettishly to her parents, crying and being comforted by her mother in her arms, and then later, the person who took care of her brother and comforted her brother became her.
"Xiaoyu," Zhao Hui patted her on the back and said softly: "If you encounter something sad, talk to your mother, your mother can't help you solve problems, you can always listen to you and talk about your heart." β
Yu Shu sucked in Zhao Hui's strong mother's smell, although it was a little more comforting, and couldn't help but want to talk, but he didn't forget how powerful Jingchen was, and it leaked out, whoever listened to it hurt someone.
"I'm just feeling bad, nothing else." She lifted her neck from Zhao Hui's arms, "I want to eat the small wonton stew you cooked, okay?" β
As soon as Zhao Hui heard that she wanted to eat, how could she not agree, so she immediately said: "There is still raw meat in the kitchen, and the chicken soup was boiled at noon, so I will cook the filling." β
After saying that, he let go of her and went to the kitchen to make a meal.
Yu Shu slept for a day, and after walking all the way, his stomach was already rumbling. But she didn't have much appetite, she was wrapped in a quilt and lay on the bed in a daze, and Kidney Bean came in from outside, and she didn't respond to a few gentle calls, thinking she was asleep. When I walked in, I realized that she had her eyes open.
"Girl, girl?"
Yu Shu rolled his eyes listlessly: "Huh? β
Kidney Dou picked up the clothes at the head of the bed and said to her: "Xue Gongzi has come to the door, you can get dressed quickly, I don't know what is going on." β
Yu Shu sat up suddenly, looking at the sky outside the window, it was clear that it was still raining outside, but she didn't expect Xue Rui to come looking for her at this time, she was happy and sad. The happy thing is that she wants to see him at this time, but the sad thing is that she doesn't know what to say when she sees him.
"Where's the shoes?" Yu Shu turned over and got out of bed, no matter what, he couldn't avoid him.
Kidney Bean took a clean dress and put it on for her, because her hair was still damp. He tied a ring bun on the back of his head, twisted it with a long beaded hairpin, half of his long hair hung down on his waist, and went to the front to meet the guests in a plain body
Go under the eaves. Kidney Dou put away the umbrella, Yu Shu put down his skirt, looked up and saw that the room was brightly lit, Xue Rui sat in the bright place, holding a cup of tea in his hand, sitting upright, wearing a round-necked robe with willow and green satin, lining his figure slender and straight, meticulously tied the black hair behind his head, revealing a square forehead, and a pair of bright peach blossom eyes stared at her when she walked out of the door.
Probably because it was dark and there was no one else, his gaze was not very subtle, but Yu Shu's eyes flickered a little, and he turned his head sideways to call Kidney Bean to guard in the corridor, and then walked in.
"It's raining, why did you come here?"
It has been three or four days since they last had a small gathering in the Wangji Building.
"The Wenzong of Dali Temple is all in order, submit it in the afternoon, and I will go back to the house," Xue Rui paused in his tone, watched Yu Shu sit down opposite him, lowered his voice, and said:
"I'm thinking you're here."
The two were intimate on the rooftop that night, and Xue Rui and Yu Shu both felt closer from the bottom of their hearts.
Yu Shu heard Xue Rui's straightforward love words, saying that it was fake to be unhappy, she only found out not long ago that Xue Rui, who is sleek and sophisticated in dealing with people, is quite frank emotionally, such as now, if she wants to come to see her, she doesn't mind telling him, and she won't be coy, deliberately putting on a high posture in front of her.
Looking at Xue Rui like this, how could Yu Shu not be angry with the identity of the lifebreaker, and ask her to let go of such a man who knows cold and hot and knows the fun, and goes to marry and have children with a rival family, isn't this tearing out her heart?
"Big brother, have you had dinner?" Yu Shu opened his mouth and asked dryly.
She really didn't think about whether to tell Xue Rui about Jingchen or not.
To be honest, she is a little timid, she is not very sure, if Xue Rui knows that there is such a big mountain above her head, if she wants to achieve good things with her, she will have to go against the emperor Lao Tzu, and even abandon this peaceful and prosperous world, will he choose to stand with her and face it together.
No wonder she is not sure, in her opinion, how much you give, how much you can get, she is benevolent to Jingchen, life and death intersect, that person can use her to achieve righteousness, what about Xue Rui, what has she done for Xue Rui?
Looking back and thinking about it, Xue Rui has always been helping her, silently doing a lot for her, saying that it is not enough to be in front of the saddle and after the horse, but she has not had time to treat him well, and there is such a fork.
She asked Jing Chen last night if it was worth her to be the lifebreaker for him, and today she also asked herself, is she worth Xue Rui's risk against the court for her?
She actually knows the answer.
Yu Shu's eyes turned gray, her heart was sour and astringent, and she had some unspeakable helplessness, why did she feel that Xue Rui should bear this great rebellious charge with her for her own selfishness, if she also put Xue Rui in a dilemma, what is the difference between it and what Jingchen did to her?
"Ashu, why don't you speak? Are you tired? β
"Oh, I stayed up late last night, stayed overnight in the Taishi Academy to watch the stars, and didn't sleep well during the day," Yu Shu rubbed his eyes, lest he see the clues, and then said:
"Godmother cooked the wontons with her own hands, you can stay and eat together."
Xue Rui smiled: "I still remember Aunt Hui's wonton noodles, which were in Yiyang City at that time, and I took you to try it." β
"yes, I remember too, back then"
Xue Rui introduced the topic, looked at Yu Shu who was chattering, and doubts flashed in his eyes: Seeing that she was a little strange today, it seemed that she had encountered something difficult, and it was inconvenient to tell him.
Is something wrong? (To be continued.) )
