Chapter 449: Sacrifice (3)

Don't forget your words, strong pressure is coming. Zhou Xian in the hazy light silently recited these four words, and the gloom around her was like a big quilt covering the sky, and she had difficulty breathing and had nowhere to escape.

She turned her head to look north, in the direction of Jiangning City, and a pressure hit her heart...... Li Yu definitely didn't sleep now, he was waiting for the desperate result in despair! Closer to the place, Liu Liuqi was also waiting, and even forced himself to seize the opportunity to assassinate tonight, those four words "Don't forget the words of the king" are very urgent and serious reminders, because it is very risky and not easy to pass in.

Zhou Xian's heart seemed to be tightly screwed together by something, thinking of Jiangning Mansion, Li Yu's desperate, struggling, and helpless face seemed to be right in front of her, and she was in pain again; That person pinned everything on himself, even if he did it ruthlessly, but if he didn't help him, he would really die, and he would never recover!

The situation on the night of parting resurfaced in Zhou Xian's mind.

That day was the last night Zhou Xian left Jiangning Mansion. She knew that this trip was a farewell, and no matter whether the trip was successful or not, she didn't think that she would be able to return to Jiangning Mansion alive. has been married to Li Yu for several years, but she was sent out by the person with the deepest affection at that time, she was heartbroken, and that ending was undoubtedly a denial of her entire life. For more than 20 years, she has given her whole life to Li Yu.

There will be no more choice, no matter what kind of person he is, Zhou Xian has no way to deny it; Moreover, the first betrayer was not Li Yu, so she couldn't blame others, and she should bear all the bitter fruits the most.

She remembered that at that time, she packed up the clothes he wore for Li Yu, as well as the things he usually used, and told the female officials who were resent to take care of her daily life one by one. Very detailed.

Doing those trivial things is also the last time to do something for Li Yu, and I will no longer be able to take care of his life in the future. After all those things, she was completely out into silence and darkness, like death.

…… Obviously, he has sworn an alliance countless times, why didn't he keep it, why did he betray?

Two lines of tears slipped down Zhou Xian's cheeks, and she thought silently: If she hadn't given herself so easily and didn't let Li Yu betray her, Li Yu wouldn't have doubted herself and treated herself like that, right? She felt that she had buried everything with her own hands!

She gritted her teeth and said silently: I hate you! Guo Shao!

Now, the suffocating despair has shrouded Zhou Xian's body, and her mind is a mess. At this hopeless moment, Zhou Xian secretly made up his mind: I will die anyway, sacrifice me alone, and save my sister Jiamin (Tuesday's sister) from danger; Fulfilling Li Yu's glimmer of hope can also be regarded as the redemption of the unforgettable affection.

Sacrifice is to give one's life and soul to show one's devotion to a certain god.

Zhou Xian raised his sleeves and rubbed them vigorously on his face to wipe away his tears. She felt that she had never been so brave in her life of weakness and weakness. She took a deep breath, gently put her hand in her hair, plucked a golden hairpin, and held it tightly in her hand.

When Guo Shao falls asleep, a golden hairpin can also kill him!

Kill him! I was also buried with him, and after a hundred deaths, I was probably finally relaxed. Zhou Xian felt really tired, tired from the bottom of his heart.

…… After a long time, the night was already late, Zhou Xian didn't hear any movement outside, but there was still light outside the curtain, probably the person would not extinguish the lights when he slept. She timidly walked forward to the curtain, and with a slight movement she found that her legs were sore, and that she had stood there for too long.

The light that came through the cracks in the curtain was hazy, and the light was like the color of dust and mist. Zhou Xian seemed to see the underworld, and walked through the long black road where he couldn't see his fingers with black and white impermanence, and then saw the slightly open door of the frightened underworld. There are ghosts, unknown horrors, and dark and cold light in the door, and there is no return from there.

Zhou Xian didn't make a sound at all, walked behind the slit and leaned his eyes over to take a look. Suddenly, I saw a young man still sitting in front of the desk, and he hadn't slept yet! What time has it been? What is Guo Shao still doing staying up late?

In the firelight, I saw Guo Shao open his mouth and yawn, gently rested the brush in his hand on the inkstone, and got up.

Zhou Xianxin said: He's going to bed now?

Unexpectedly, Guo Shao didn't mean to leave his seat, he just turned around to look at the drawings hanging on the wooden shelf next to him. He stretched out his finger and stroked it carefully and slowly somewhere on the drawing.

Zhou Xian was stunned for a moment, he had never seen a man look like this. Guo Shao's eyes were a little tired, making him look a little pitiful, but his gaze was extremely focused, and even gave people a very affectionate feeling. He was not looking at the map, but looking at the mountains and rivers of this piece of China with feelings...... Zhou Xian couldn't help but wander: If a woman was looked at like this, what kind of mood should she have?

At this moment, suddenly there was a movement at the door, and a military general lifted the thick cloth at the door of the tent, which scared Zhou Xian.

The military general coughed cautiously and softly, and when Guo Shao turned his head, he bent down and said, "Lord, Zuo Shaoqing asked to see him overnight." ”

Guo Shao turned his head to look this way, and Zhou Xian's heart tightened again, worried that he would find that he hadn't slept. Guo Shao whispered: "Let him come in and tell him to speak quietly, the people inside may be asleep." ”

When Zhou Xian heard such a concerned word, a mixed taste suddenly rose in his heart, which was very unpleasant. Guo Shao has always been worried about himself.

A short time later, the civil official Zuo You walked into the tent, and he appeared to be a young man in the Qing Dynasty who was not more than thirty years old, and Zhou Xian had been in the same car when he went to the riverside. Zuo You came in alone, without any etiquette at all, and said in a deep voice: "Lord, you must not live here tonight. ”

Guo Shao frowned and said, "Didn't I order Lu Chengyong not to make a mistake, what I said in the army has no prestige?" ”

Zuo You said: "If the lord thinks that he is disobedient, he will be killed." ”

The two men immediately looked at each other, and Zuo You did not avoid Guo Shao's gaze. Zuo You said again: "If the lord insists on this, cut off my head, put it next to your bed, and watch it for you all night." ”

Guo Shao let out a sigh: "You know that I can't do anything about you, right?" ”

Zuo You said: "It's just that I really can't figure it out, and it's definitely not intentional disobedience." ”

Guo Shao said softly: "I trust that woman, you can rest assured, when have I ever looked at someone?" ”

When Zhou Xian heard this, he realized another problem: the reason why he had a chance tonight was entirely because of Guo Shao's trust! This kind of trust is to dare to trust it with one's life.

Zhou Xian's heart churned, and he felt that he had really misjudged Guo Shao before...... She thought that a person who had climbed up from a humble status would do anything to value what had been obtained; The opposite is true. It is not surprising that a person who has nothing entrusts his life with his life, but it is very rare that a person who is in the position of a supreme minister and has great power in the world can do so for a woman.

The conversation between the two has been very quiet, Zuo You frowned and said: "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, not to mention that woman is suspected of being a spy." Why is the lord so sure? ”

Guo Shao pondered for a moment and said, "Between you and me, I can't hide it, that woman is Emperor Zhou E." ”

Zuo You's face was surprised, "Queen of the Southern Tang Kingdom?" ”

"Exactly." Guo Shao's voice said.

Zuo You was silent for a long time, as if he was thinking about the relationship, and then said: "Zhou Hou is indeed a rare beauty in the world, and it is not strange for heroes to love her." However, now the demise of the Southern Tang Kingdom is on the verge of destruction, and the beauty is already in the bag. The lord likes it, and it is only easy for him to get into the house every day, so why should he receive the hilt of the sword at such a time? ”

"It's not dangerous in the first place, so it can't be called a grant." Guo Shao paced a few steps, patted his forehead and said, "Mr. Zuo came close, I thought of how to explain, and I will take a look with you." ”
