Chapter 70: Late Night Pear Blossom Brewing

Canglan admits that she loves Su Suxuan to the core, and she is no longer the carefree Bai Qianqian. She thought of the seal-like birthmark on her shoulder, and seemed to be able to feel Su Suxuan's desperation when she cast a spell and printed this curse mark for herself, because at that time she had been hanged on the city wall, and there was no other way to bring Canglan back to life except to refine the bones and soul in the soul furnace, and then send them to reincarnation.

What is it like to send your loved ones into the soul furnace with your own hands and watch the bones turn into nothing?

Canglan thought about how he had survived all the lonely and lonely years alone in the past few hundred years, and with the guilt of vicissitudes, he once again became the person who silently guarded him by his side.

She looked at Su Suxuan and said with a wry smile: "Even if you are poor and fall into the Yellow Spring, you are not willing to give up, and you can still hold on until now." ”

Su Suxuan staggered away from the vicissitudes of life, like an embarrassed child, fighting against the demons in his heart.

Canglan knows that people who have been poisoned by the double heart, the slightest restless thoughts in their hearts will be infinitely amplified, and the more depressed they are, the more pain they will suffer now.

"Su Xuan!" Canglan walked over.

Su Suxuan saw a vague silhouette slowly approaching him, he raised his hand like a thousand gold, and shouted weakly: "Don't come here!" I ......"

I would be disrespectful to you.

These words were swallowed up by his sense of shame, and it was difficult to say for a while.

Although he wanted to get it, it was definitely not in this way, and it was definitely not in such a place, Su Suxuan hoped that he could give Canglan a wedding she wanted.

Under the thousand-year-old flower trees in Liuyun Valley, by the clear and clear Tianjing Lake, he knew that that was what Canglan wanted.

"I ...... I don't want to watch you in such pain! Canglan slowly walked to Su Suxuan's side, she slowly untied the strap on her waist, her prosperity faded, and the ice muscle and jade bones were attached to Su Suxuan's endless heat.

“…… Other...... In this way, he will feel guilty, and even disgusted with himself, and at this moment, Canglan hugged him like a child, but this hug was also like a fire, igniting all the charcoal sparks around him.

"Don't be afraid, don't think too much! Think of me as your detoxification. ”

She has no regrets, because she should have belonged to him, and he should have belonged to hers.

…………

In the Lin Mansion, a general in black armor was facing Wei Xinghan's eyes, and behind Wei Xinghan was a large group of heavily armed soldiers, they were fully dressed, holding long swords in their hands, solemn as if they were ready to attack.

"I want to drink a pot of pear blossom stuff!" Wei Xinghan and Lin Yi were silent for a moment when they met each other, and then said to Lin Yi unexpectedly to all the soldiers.

Lin Yi was not surprised by his arrival, he made a gesture of please, and said without humility or arrogance: "Lord Wang, please!" ”

There are only no more than ten servants in the Lin Mansion of Nuoda, and although Lin Yi is a deputy general, he has never married a wife and had children, so the family is extremely deserted.

Wei Xinghan motioned to his soldiers not to act rashly, and then followed Lin Yi to a small stone seat in the backyard, Lin Yi instructed his servants to bring a pot of fine pear blossom brew, and brought two very ordinary woodcut cups, Lin Yi poured a cup for Wei Xinghan, Wei Xinghan took it, and then poured himself a cup.

"I remember that when you went to the battlefield with me, we all liked pear blossom brewing, which is only available in the capital, but the border plug is thousands of miles away from the capital of the Great Wei, so when I asked the little soldiers to transport armaments again, I helped pull ten jars of pear blossom brew." Wei Xinghan didn't ask Lin Yi directly, after all, this should be the last time he Lin Yi sat together and drank pear blossom brew.

In Wei Xinghan's heart, although Lin Yi usually has few words and a weak sense of existence, Lin Yi's mind is even firmer than him, and he faithfully fulfills everything he does. In Wei Xinghan's eyes, Lin Yi is a powerful and perfect man, and sometimes he is a little indifferent to others.

He raised his wine glass, Lin Yi still had a toast with him tacitly, Wei Xinghan drank the wine in the wine glass, but Lin Yi only took a symbolic taste, put down the wine glass, lifted the wine jug, and poured Wei Xinghan's wine glass full of pear blossom brew.

"Yes! At that time, the general treated us very well, and on the battlefield, you were the first to charge. The most wounded, but also the most optimistic, you will remember the name of each dead soldier, ask the emperor to pay the subsidy to their families, you will personally visit those wounded soldiers. ”

"Don't you always follow me? I've always felt that you were determined and invincible on the battlefield. ”

"Lord Wang, it's over!" Lin Yi was also very calm when he said this.

"Tell me, why did you betray me?" Wei Xinghan raised his hand and took a big sip of the pear blossom brew in his hand, but he couldn't taste the mellowness of the battle on the battlefield back then.

Lin Yi froze for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Because among so many people, you care about every one, but you don't care about me." ”

As soon as these words came out, Wei Xinghan's whole person was stunned, and he said half-loudly: "Why do you say this?" ”

"Do you remember that back then, I asked you to return to the capital?"

"Yes! Remember! That's the only time you've asked me. ”

However, Wei Xinghan didn't care much at the time, he thought that if that request was really important to Lin Yi, he would definitely ask him again, as long as Lin Yi said one more word back then, he would never despise this matter.

"Because of Luo Qingtian, the Luo family was at risk of being slashed at that time, so I wanted to rush back."

Could it be that those folk rumors are not fiction, Lin Yi and Luo Qingtian, the difference between the two is ten years old, and since the death of the Lin family's couple, Lin Yi and the Luo family have very little contact, how can they develop a relationship with Luo Qingtian? Even if Lin Yi is twenty years old, Luo Qingtian is only ten years old.

"But she's ten years younger than you, is it really because the two families are married, do you like her?"

"Luo'er is my cousin, and I protect her, as a matter of course."

"At that time, you ...... Why don't you tell me? ”

"I thought that the prince, you would ask me again."

"Why didn't the relationship between the Lin family and the Luo family be directly announced at that time? Maybe the people who wanted to frame the Luo family at that time knew the relationship between the Luo family and your General Lin, so they didn't dare to act rashly. ”

"No, Lord Wang, I had a serious illness when I was a child, and almost all the family's savings were spent, my father and mother didn't have much money in the first place, and there was a rich son Liu Yue at that time, who pretended to be kind enough to lend us money, but after my illness was cured, he asked us to repay it a hundred times. My father and mother really couldn't come up with so much money, so they forcibly dragged me to be a slave, that man was moody, he was a pervert, when I was a child, I was beaten by him a lot, many times I once thought that I would die of illness in my father's arms, and it was better than being tortured to death in his abuse, I asked him why he did this, and guess how he answered, and he said: 'Uncle Ben thinks it's funny! He can kill and kill at will with a word of fun, and he can make a family scatter with a word of fun, and when I grow up a little bit, I secretly escaped and found my father, at that time, I met the prince You were recruiting, and I followed your army, but the greater my reputation, the greater the impact on my family, and Liu Yue is also looking for people who are related to me by blood, collecting debts from them, and later they still found my father..."

"Liu Yue, one of the five bullies of the Great Wei, relied on the power of the family to do a lot of evil, a year ago because of a village crime, offended another big bully Yang Gongzi, and Yang Gongzi was later poisoned in the Luo family cellar, the Luo family did suffer because of this, after the truth of the matter was found out, Liu Yue was exiled to Biansai, but his family background is big, and four or five out of ten of the imperial tribute taxes come from the Liu family, so for the sake of his father, his father did not want his life." Wei Xinghan knew Lin Yi's hardships back then, and it was the first time he heard Lin Yi say so many things.

Before I knew it, I had drunk five cups of pear blossom brew.

……

At this point, the two were silent for a long time.

Wei Xinghan only felt full of guilt, from beginning to end, Lin Yi spoke concisely, no matter what he said or did, Wei Xinghan couldn't see Lin Yi's emotions.

Today, he finally saw the little hatred and unwillingness from Lin Yi's face, as well as the pain and loneliness of losing his loved ones.

Once, he really cared about his soldiers, and he had to personally go to comfort every wounded soldier, and he had to settle a trivial matter in the barracks.

Only for General Lin, he regarded him as a saint in his heart, and even an undefeated god of war. Whether he goes out to fight, or sits quietly and eats a meal, he is always in great spirits and has a straight back, as long as he sees General Lin, no matter how dark his heart is, he will cheer up. Although he was a man of few words, he was not unkind, but many people still kept him away, and when the little soldiers greeted General Lin, he would not smile, but would nod to them.

However, such a seemingly invincible man, he endured great pain in his heart all the time, and he hid all his sadness and anxiety tightly, so that no one could see into his heart.

Now Wei Xinghan knows that Lin Yi's heart is as fragile as ordinary people, or even more fragile than them.

Sometimes, the more fragile a person's heart is, the stronger they will disguise themselves.

"But what does all this have to do with the Bai family couple?" When Wei Xinghan raised this question, he really couldn't bear it, but he knew that Lin Yi was at least involved in the murder.

Lin Yi replied unabashedly: "General Bai was in the court at the time, and he interceded for Liu Yue, and he said that he wanted to help the Luo family prove his innocence and help the bully speak, this is his proof?" If it hadn't been for the minister telling me, I would still be kept in the dark! This is the most hated person I've ever met! Hypocrisy at its best! ”

"Don't say that about General Bai and Madame Bai! Do you know why General Bai interceded for the Liu family back then? ”

"What can't they do for the sake of power and wealth?"

"You're wrong! General Bai said that, but he was adhering to the emperor's will. ”

Lin Yi was still stunned, but he didn't speak. Wei Xinghan continued: "In the case of the Luo family's wine cellar, the emperor actually knew the truth, and my father knew that Yang Gongzi was framed by Liu Yue, and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty knew about it. The emperor was furious, and decided to behead Liu Yue in front of the ministers, but at that time, Liu Yue's family background was relatively large, and some courtiers immediately objected, and the emperor immediately became angry with the ministers.

But after that day, the emperor regretted it, you and I know, at the same time as this case happened, the northern border barbarians attacked violently, at that time there was a shortage of armaments and materials, at that time, the first war, barely won, but in urgent need of support, and the Liu family handed over almost all the money to the Great Wei to buy military equipment for the northern army. The Manchu civil and military forces were worried that after the emperor killed Liu Yue, the Liu family would fight against the imperial court, not only did not hand over the money, but even sold the military supplies purchased with the money to the barbarians in the north. In fact, the Liu family did want to blackmail the emperor in this way, and the emperor's decision had been decided at that time, so he asked General Bai to give him a step down because of his face. ”

After listening to this explanation, Lin Yi took a deep breath, sighed slowly, and then shook his head helplessly and smiled: "So the Luo family still fell victim to this farce, and the emperor announced to the world that Yang Gongzi was framed by the Luo family, and the real murderer is still at large because he is rich and powerful." ”

"This matter is really sorry for you, General Lin, but Luo Qingtian is still alive, and it all depends on General Bai, in fact, Mrs. Luo was still alive at that time, and she was not punished, she died of depression."

The misunderstandings and lies of the past are peeled away layer by layer, and the bloody and absurd truth is exposed under the intense white light.

"No matter what, I don't want Great Wei to be a country where bullies go unpunished."

"So who is the person behind you?" Wei Xinghan didn't hold out hope that such a question could be answered from General Lin's mouth, he knew that General Lin had always been tight-lipped about it.

Sure enough, as he guessed, Lin Yi got up and knelt on the ground: "Forgive the ministers for their difficulty in answering the prince's questions, please give the ministers the death penalty!" ”

"In that case, then please general, come with me!"
