Chapter 55: A Trip to Jiangnan
"Wan'er, how are you?"
Dong Ping pushed open the door and saw Cheng Wan'er sitting on the bed, coughing slightly.
"Brother Dong Ping, you're here." Cheng Wan'er watched Dong Ping run to the head of the bed in a few steps, and reluctantly laughed twice, just about to say a few words, only to feel that a warm embrace had hugged her.
"I'm sorry last time...... It's all my fault. Dong Ping hugged Cheng Wan'er, gritted his teeth, and there was endless guilt in his tone: "It's because I said so many wrong things that made you alone outside and suffer so much."
Cheng Wan'er only felt that her eyes were hot, and two lines of tears had flowed uncontrollably.
Hu Sanniang also told her that these days, for her own safety, Dong Ping has not closed her eyes for almost two days and two nights, and has been running around in order to find a miracle doctor who can cure her illness.
"I ...... I'm fine. Cheng Wan'er shook her head slightly, and whispered, "It wasn't your fault last time, that incident...... It's true that I'm going too far. β
"Alright, let's not talk about that." Dong Ping let go of his hand, looked at Cheng Wan'er and said in a solemn tone: "Now let's set off to find An Daoquan, the divine doctor of Jiangnan Jiankang Mansion."
"Hmm." Cheng Wan'er pursed her lips and nodded, but there was a bit of confusion in her eyes.
"That's right." Dong Ping stared at Cheng Wan'er's eyes, and said with a serious face: "Tell me, was that Yuwen Ling last time the one who did it to you?"
"Of course not!" Cheng Wan'er hurriedly waved her hand, looking a little dazed, "I don't remember anything after I fainted that time, I just feel that someone carried me back, and when I woke up again, it was now." β
Dong Ping looked at Cheng Wan'er and didn't speak, and after half a day passed, he sighed heavily.
"Brother Dong Ping, I still decided to tell you about the events of that day." Cheng Wan'er smiled bitterly, stretched out her hand to hold Dong Ping's hand, and said in a low tone: "I don't have much time, in order to leave you a memory, I decided to do that, but I can't let the child be stillborn, so I ......."
"Okay, the past is gone, don't mention that incident in the future." Dong Ping pressed her lips with his fingers, a faint smile rose from the corner of his mouth, but his tone was extremely firm: "Wan'er, don't worry, even if the king of Hades wants to take your life, then you have to step on my Dong Ping's corpse first!"
Tears slipped from the corners of her eyes again, and Cheng Wan'er only felt as if her heart had recovered her temperature.
"Okay, keep crying, but no one will marry you."
Dong Ping stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and a smile at the corner of her mouth loomed, outlining this girl's heart, but it was the most perfect appearance.
"Well, let's go." Feeling the warm winter sun shining on her body outside the window, Cheng Wan'er smiled from the bottom of her heart for the first time.
Under the reflection of the sun, the figure of the girl and the light blue dress support each other, showing a picture like a fairy.
Leaning on the window edge of the room, Dong Ping clasped his hands to his chest and looked at the scenery below.
In the warm morning sun, the children downstairs are chasing and playing, the old people are chatting and playing chess on the street corners, and the vendors have set up their stalls and are ready for the day's business.
What a blessing it would be if this picture could go on forever!
And those vicious thieves will not show mercy to peace-loving people!
The only way to resist the butcher's knife of the greedy is to take up arms and fight the invaders to the last drop of blood!
Protecting the land under your feet and being with the people you love forever, although it sounded like a very naΓ―ve sentence before, but now in Dong Ping's mind, it supports his own ideas.
Also, my own spiritual pillar!
In this troubled world, the rules are controlled by the strong.
And the strong should have the spirit and belief of being a guardian!
"Hey, I said you two, when can you come down and talk to us little people?" A deep voice came from below, "If it goes on like this, we'll go and get that old man back here!" β
Dong Ping didn't even look at it, and yelled at the following: "Sun Li, you kid be honest, if you get in a hurry, I will throw you directly to Feng Yingxuan, see if Lao Tzu is back, can you still make such a fuss!"
There was a burst of laughter below, and Sun Li stood by the carriage and smiled awkwardly.
"I said Liu Yun, what are you smiling at!" Sun Li was angry, and opened his mouth to scold: "Who lost the worst last time?" I didn't win a game in my hand, and I still owe Lao Tzu three meals of wine and haven't paid it back! β
"Yo, someone dares to mention wine!" Liu Yun smiled and patted Tang Bin's shoulder on the side, "The surname is Sun, you kid don't ask, which bastard was drunk like a dead dog on the first floor yesterday?" β
Tang Bin smiled: "I didn't see anything anyway, just don't pull me in."
Sun Li was speechless, so he simply shook his hand and ran to the first floor of the inn to chat with the proprietress.
"Alright, let's go." Dong Ping walked to Cheng Wan'er's bedside with a smile, and hugged her in her surprised eyes.
"You...... You tap. Cheng Wan'er's cheeks were slightly red with shame.
"How...... Then I'll carry it. Dong Ping laughed, and made a gesture to put her down.
"Alas, don't be foolish, everyone is waiting downstairs!" Cheng Wan'er angrily hammered Dong Ping's back.
"You're really hard to serve!" Dong Ping shook his head with a smile, and regardless of the girl's complaints, he carried Cheng Wan'er downstairs directly.
This place, the next time you come, it will be the time to take Dongping City!
Taiwei's Mansion, inside the secret room.
"How's it going?"
A voice resounded in the deepest darkness of the chamber, and if you didn't distinguish it carefully, you couldn't see anything clearly under the dim oil lamp in the room.
"You're in control!" A middle-aged man sat on the ground, and the determination in his eyes told everyone that this was not an ordinary person.
"That's good." The voice sounded again, "Inform Qiu Yue, bring someone directly to Jeju to meet me in three days!" β
"Yes!" The man replied crisply.
"In addition, let Zhao Tan, Wang Huan, Han Cunbao, Zhang Kai, and Xiang Yuanzhen each bring 10,000 troops to gather near Jeju and listen to my orders!"
"The last general obeys!" The man's tone was almost categorical.
"You and Commander Zhou, also bring people with you."
The voice was silent for a long time before speaking again.
"Are you sure...... Want to do that? The man's brows furrowed, in this way, the defense force is completely empty, isn't this to give this old book to others?
Suddenly, he remembered something again, and suddenly exclaimed: "You don't want to ......"
"Wang Yu, you followed me back then, so I trusted you so much." The voice was obviously a little heavy, "There are some things that you should not worry about!" β
"Yes...... The end will be clear! Wang Yu lowered his head, and his heart was in a cold sweat.
This time, Zhao'an Liangshan's action can't go wrong!
