Chapter 134: A One-Year Covenant
The north of the Yin Kingdom.
After receiving the order, Mo Hongfeng immediately rushed to the frontier battlefield without the slightest hesitation and hesitation, he immediately led his soldiers to launch a fierce confrontation and battle with the barbarian grassland peoples, but at this moment, something unexpected happened.
"General Cai, why are you here!"
Before the battle had completely begun, Mo Hongfeng's figure was suddenly shocked by Yi Zhilin's figure, and Yi Zhilin came here with the soldiers in his hands who could be deployed at will.
"General, I haven't seen you for a long time, no, I didn't expect the two of us to meet so soon."
Yi Zhilin, who was sitting on horseback, held a blade in his hand, and his eyes were full of sarcastic smiles.
I have to admit that when Mo Hongfeng saw the person in front of him, he did doubt whether the Son of Heaven secretly sent Yi Zhilin to go with him, after all, now in Mo Hongfeng's heart, Yi Zhixing is indeed the benevolent and righteous king who cared about brotherhood in the past, and it is not surprising that he did such a thing. However, things are often beyond expectations, and the arrival of Yi Zhilin is not out of the original wish of the Son of Heaven at all. It is impossible for Yi Zhixing to give him this opportunity to make a contribution.
"General Cai, could it be that Your Majesty sent you to assist the old man? Old man, it's really not necessary, right? General Cai Xiao should hurry back to your garrison and continue to set up camp! ”
When the words fell, Yi Zhilin sneered, and the sarcasm on his face was even worse.
"General, do you think that the Son of Heaven who is inconsistent with his appearance will give me, the biggest threat, the possibility of establishing a meritorious career? General, when will you be able to see the true nature of the Son of Heaven? Let me tell you the truth, there is no rogue invasion in my place, except for the yellow sand in the sky, it is still the yellow sand, since I heard that the north has been attacked by barbarians in recent days, I am thinking about the country's country, so I led my troops to the north to save the people from the dire situation. The people here can be grateful to me, and I guess you don't have any selfish intentions, general, right? In the end, the two of us are both thinking about the people and the society of the Yin country, and there is no difference in nature. ”
Mo Hongfeng was shocked when these words fell, he would never have thought that the person in front of him would abandon his original garrison without the order of the Son of Heaven and come here in a vain attempt to ask for merit and reward. At this time, when he saw Mo Hongfeng blowing his beard and glaring, he was extremely annoyed.
"You rebel! If you are known by Your Majesty and the courtiers, you will be a sin who deserves death! It's ridiculous! ”
Mo Hongfeng pointed at his nose and scolded viciously, even Mo Hongfeng, who has always been straight-headed, saw the intention of Yi Zhilin's trip, but it was just to snatch his own fame here, and he wanted to gain a foothold in the court by virtue of a war! And Yi Zhilin's ultimate ambition is naturally that high, otherwise he wouldn't have to be so anxious at this time.
In the face of Mo Hongfeng's evil words, Yi Zhilin just sneered with even more disdain, as if he didn't care, his face was still full of rebelliousness.
"General, I have already come here to kill the enemy before you arrived, and although this enemy has not been completely killed, the remnants you see at this time are indeed dependent on my merits. Otherwise, what you see now is far more miserable than that. The remnants of the people here are bowing their heads and thanking me for my timely appearance, how come I have become a great rebel in your mouth? It seems that you are indeed a good lackey of the Son of Heaven, as long as it is unfavorable to His Majesty, whether it is beneficial to the country of Yin or not, you have to speak disrespectfully, block again and again, are you really a good hero of this Yin country? I don't think so. ”
Yi Zhilin, who came here early to regain the hearts of the people, didn't take Mo Hongfeng's threat seriously at all, anyway, as long as his credit was big enough in the end, he could offset the sin of leaving his post without permission at this time. The lonely days of flying yellow sand in the sky have long been tired of Yi Zhilin, and the reason why he wanted to lure Yi Zhixing to transfer him to the frontier in the first place is just because of this, he has the opportunity to make contributions. Otherwise, how could Yi Zhixing hand over such a great opportunity to himself? This opportunity is only possible through such dangerous acts of 'desertion'.
As soon as his words came out, Mo Hongfeng's face fell to the bottom, but when he saw the blade in his hand going up and down, he immediately attacked the person in front of him. This small act was seen by Yi Zhilin, and he still proudly alerted: "General, you'd better think clearly, at this time, it is the internal fighting between the two of us that allows the enemy to take advantage of it, or the two of us put aside our grievances for the time being and join forces to attack the barbarians." The choice is up to you, anyway. ”
The air here was silent for a long time, and the general's fierce eyes were always firmly on the body of the person in front of him. He had thought about cutting through the chaos quickly and eradicating Yi Zhixing's biggest opponent as soon as possible, but then he thought about it, if Yi Zhilin really died, these elite soldiers under his command who were raised by Cai Liang would inevitably break out into turmoil, and at that time, wouldn't it still be a barbarian who succeeded?
"Humph! The old man won't worry too much about you like this! But the old man doesn't want to join forces with you, this is His Majesty's mission to the old man, you can stay where you are cool! Even if the enemy kills the old man, the old man will not be able to join forces with you! ”
After saying that, Mo Hongfeng immediately held a weapon in his hand and led his soldiers into a more dangerous situation.
Yin Palace.
Zhi Lan has been waiting by Yi Zhixing's side for two or three days, but during these days, Zhi Lan has not moved. At least in Yan Qi's eyes, Zhi Lan is still a suspicious murderer, so his eyes often follow him, lest his master be secretly harmed by Lan Cainu, he always secretly spies on Zhi Lan's words and deeds, fortunately, Zhi Lan is not dangerous.
Although she has been carefully taking care of the Son of Heaven for several days, only Yi Zhixing can accurately capture the subtle abnormalities of Zhi Lan, who often wanders, and the reason for this distraction is mostly because of her current situation.
Yi Zhixing couldn't be clearer, the heart of the woman in front of her must be in the so-called 'Sui Jing' body in her mouth, and Yi Zhixing has always had some kind of secret heartache for Zhilan's mind drifting.
On this day, when Yi Zhixing woke up again, the first thing that jumped into his eyes was indeed the face that was wandering, Zhilan did not notice Yi Zhixing's sobriety, but Yi Zhixing completely peeked into her mind.
"Shiba-ran."
The man called softly, and then the wandering person in front of him was summoned to the realm of reality.
"You're awake......"
Zhi Lan hurriedly straightened out her complicated thoughts, and Ran Ran evoked a shallow smile.
Looking at it like this, Yi Zhixing's gaze was even more gloomy, and after that, he didn't say a word, and the air was silent for a long time.
Faced with this situation, Zhi Lan was really at a loss, and after a long time, Yi Zhixing opened his mouth again, but this question was not in Zhi Lan's expected range at all.
"Zhi Lan, do you want to leave the Yin Palace?"
The Son of Heaven looked solemn, as if he wanted a sincere answer from the person in front of him.
Zhi Lan was stunned, and then her chin bowed, she couldn't deceive Yi Zhixing, let alone her heart that had been longing to return to Sui Jing's side. However, not long after this answer fell, a layer of loneliness suddenly passed through the eyes of the Son of Heaven, and Zhi Lan did not capture it.
"Really...... Actually, I also know that you can't just plug in your wings and leave......"
Yi Zhixing's words were inexplicably embarrassed, but seeing that Zhilan lowered her head, she didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of the person in front of her.
Next, a sudden promise immediately made Zhi Lan stunned in place.
"I'll let you go."
It took almost all the courage and courage to say this redundant and sincere oath, he had never felt that anything was extremely difficult in his life, but at the moment of the right talent, Yi Zhixing completely felt some kind of traumatic and deep hardship. If in the past, he would never let the people he cherished go, and he would rather be wronged by Zhilan for a long time, but also choose to enjoy it selfishly.
At this moment, Zhi Lan seemed to be disturbed by surprise, only to see her raise her eyes in a daze, and those phoenix eyes were full of incomparable excitement and excitement, Zhi Lan once doubted her ears, and she once doubted whether she could still have a thirst for the coming day.
The emotions of the person in front of him are undoubtedly the pain in the heart of the Son of Heaven, but somehow, once he glimpses Zhilan's face all over the spring, Yi Zhixing is more and more reluctant to lose this rare spring.
"Really...... Are you sure? Is this true? Yi Zhixing, aren't you making me happy? Are you really willing to let me go? ”
The excited woman grabbed the hand of the person in front of her, but Yi Zhixing pulled it away unprecedentedly.
"I promise you that I will let you go. But...... I also have a request, you will not leave until you have been in the past year, and when you are next winter, I will promise to let you go, and wherever you go, I will not interfere again. However, you can rest assured that during this year, I will give you absolute freedom, and I will no longer be confined to you as before, and you can move around the palace, but only in the palace, and preferably under my nose. I only have this request, can you grant me? ”
Yi Zhixing knew that if he let Zhi Lan return immediately, it would be impossible at all, his selfish heart could not be so generous, he had to hold a buffer time to accept Zhi Lan disappearing into his own world, but at this time, this promise was sincere. He is willing to exchange the second half of his lonely life for a good time when he can be treated sincerely by Zhilan. For Yi Zhixing, this year's time is too priceless.
"I promise! I promise! I promise you everything! ”
Zhi Lan, who was carried away by the sudden surprise, took Yi Zhixing's hand again, and this time, Yi Zhixing did not pull it out, but let him hold it tightly.
From this moment on, by the end of the year, he was finally able to accept Zhi Lan's enthusiasm, at least for this year, Zhi Lan was completely his, not the man called 'Sui Jing'.
At this time, what kind of rhetoric in this world can't describe Zhilan's happiness now, her fate seems to have fallen into happiness suddenly, and she can't believe how bright her future should be.
Due to excessive excitement, Zhi Lan hugged the person on the couch, and there was no longer past hatred and resentment in his eyes, and what was endlessly in his mouth was words of gratitude to the Son of Heaven.
Yi Zhixing didn't listen to her words, only hid the warmth in her arms in his heart, he greedily enjoyed every moment with Zhilan in his company, even after Zhilan left, he could often turn out the warmth of today, and maybe the second half of his life would not be too lonely.
