Chapter 120: The Covenant of the Future

Previous Chapter

Before Bai Qiaoxuan could see the person's face clearly, he saw that she was shot by a bullet in the body. Xuan Cang hurriedly pushed the car back, but heard a wail piercing the clouds and cracked stones in front of him, followed by a deafening shouting of killing.

Xuan Cangxi said, "Overseer, our reinforcements are here. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan didn't feel happy, because he felt that the figure who was shot by the bullet seemed to be a woman he was familiar with......

Even though he knew the danger, he still got out of the car and stepped forward to check who the person who blocked the bullet for him was, only to see a burly, tall man kneeling on the ground, holding the injured woman in one hand, holding her wound with the other, almost everything on the woman's body was red, the red dress, the red lips, the red Kodan, the red blood......

Her long curled eyelashes flickered and flickered, and her eyes looked like stars falling in the sky. Even if she is dying and weak, it is difficult to hide her beauty like a flower, she is naturally beautiful, her smile is as enchanting as a fiery rose, "You owe me a life, you can't forget me again in this life, it's good." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan's eyes flashed with tears, "I won't let myself owe you, you will live, for a long time." This is the famous King Duro, right? Fortunately. No matter what you're here today, you must want to save her life now, right? If you want, take her with you, and I won't stop you. ”

King Dulo wanted to take Zhong Wanlu away, but as soon as he picked her up, blood gushed out of her wounds, causing his tears to flow like her blood.

"It's useless...... The warhead is coated with the poison you have concocted, you know its toxicity best, is there any salvation? Come or not...... It's time to save ......"

Bai Qiaoxuan's face turned pale, and King Duluo buried his head in her arms, crying breathlessly, "I was wrong...... I shouldn't ...... I don't listen to you...... Running ...... Run to kill him...... I'm not going to kill him...... Don't kill...... You...... As long as you don't leave...... I promise you...... Forever...... Don't kill him anymore...... You don't want to die...... Don't die ......"

"Arlo ......"

King Duro put his ear to her lips and asked, "What?" ”

Zhong Wanlu's head suddenly fell to the side, but her eyes stared straight at Bai Qiaoxuan.

Wanlu...... Wanlu ...... Wanlu! Yes!!!!! ”

Before Bai Qiaoxuan could recover from Zhong Wanlu's death, King Duluo had already picked up the pistol that he had made with his own hands and killed Zhong Wanlu.

The men and horses brought by King Duluo on the side were quickly cleaned up by the newly changed Pu army, and Yang Hao killed him, "Overseer, are you all right?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan woke up like a dream, "It's okay, how did you know that King Duluo was going to ambush me here?" ”

Yang Hao looked at a car following behind, "It was the second sister-in-law who informed me." ”

Tong Yuqing rushed over, first looked at Bai Qiaoxuan, and after making sure that he was not injured, he looked at Zhong Wanlu and King Duluo's corpses.

Bai Qiaoxuan asked, "How did you know about King Duluo's plan?" ”

Tong Yuqing replied: "It was Zhong Wanlu who called me to inform me, I heard her voice very anxious, and said the location of King Duluo's ambush in such detail, it didn't look like a fake, so I hurriedly notified Yang Hao to come and rescue you, but fortunately I caught up." She ......"

"She blocked the bullets for the Overseers, and King Duro killed himself after she left. ”

Tong Yuqing felt like someone had poured lead in her heart, which made it difficult for her to breathe, and when she saw Bai Qiaoxuan's face pale, she must be in a mood no better than her. Many comforting words blocked Tong Yuqing's mouth, but in the end, she only said one sentence, "Let them be buried in peace......

At this time, Xuancang's pre-arranged people escorted another group of murderers of Bai Qiaoxuan up, Bai Qiaoxuan didn't even look at them, and said directly: "Liang Yue will be corrected on the spot, and Yin Xu will be put in prison until the day he dies." ”

After Yin Xu escaped, he still didn't know how to restrain himself, and scolded: "Bai Qiaoxuan! You have the ability to kill my father, why don't you have the courage to kill me?! You brute who cares about the principles of heaven and humanity! You don't have to die well......"

Tong Yuqing stared at the direction in which the prisoner car was leaving, her tone was as cold as ice, and she said to Yang Hao: "Lao, you ask someone to cut off his tongue for me and feed it to the dog." ”

Yang Hao replied: "What the second sister-in-law said is very much in line with my wishes. ”

Tong Yuqing said again: "I've worked hard for you today, hurry up and pack up and go back to accompany Ye'er." The fourth aunt just went, and she was in a bad mood. ”

Yang Hao bowed his head and instructed: "The second sister-in-law should also take care." ”

……

Her father's "resurrection" made Tong Yuqing feel that she had the meaning of living in the world again, and this feeling of being lost and regained made her cherish every day with her father. In Tong Yuhao's words, if she could, her sister would definitely want to stick to her father and not be separated for a moment. This stickiness is five years. After all, Tong Fengyi passed away because of the illness that had accumulated in those days of wandering. However, this time, Tong Yuqing did not despair to the point of collapse like last time, but methodically followed his father's last wish and buried the remains of Tong Baiyi and Nian Muxin in Tong's ancestral grave.

After handling her father's funeral, Tong Yuqing pulled Tong Yuhao and Bai Jiayin, who had just finished their marriage, to tell her, Tong Yuhao noticed that something was wrong with her sister, and asked worriedly: "Sister, what's wrong with you?" You have told us many times about these things before we got married, why do you mention them again today? ”

Tong Yuqing smiled faintly: "I know I said it, but I'm afraid that you will be like Wei Qing and his wife, who have been together and divided, divided and united, and have not been idle for a moment in the past few years." In the future, my sister will not be by your side, and you will have to take care of everything by yourself, you must know how to tolerate each other, respect and love each other, you know? ”

Tong Yuqing said so much, Bai Jiayin only heard one sentence, and hurriedly asked, "Sister, where are you going?" Why is it not with us? ”

Tong Yuqing looked at his father's tombstone and said leisurely: "My parents are here, not far away." In the absence of our parents, it is time for us to live for our own desires. In fact, as early as five years ago, when your brother-in-law left, I had the idea of leaving Puxinzhou, but it was only because of my father that I stayed. Now that my father is gone, and you have your own home, there is no reason for me to stay here any longer. ”

Tong Yuhao said anxiously: "But you are alone outside, how can I rest assured?" ”

Bai Jiayin also said: "Yes, stay, my brother-in-law has been gone for five years, and you should let go of the past as soon as possible." One cannot stay in the past forever. Besides, my brother won't let you go. Have you told him about this? ”

Tong Yuqing smiled, "How about we make a bet?" He will definitely agree to this. ”

Bai Jiayin asked, "What are you betting on?" ”

Tong Yuqing replied: "Just bet on whether I go or stay." If he agrees to let me go, you will no longer hinder me, and if he does not, I will stay at your word. ”

If there is anyone in the world who can understand all of Bai Qiaoxuan's thoughts without even guessing, then this person must be Tong Yuqing.

Bai Qiaoxuan not only agreed to let Tong Yuqing leave Puxizhou, but also didn't even move his eyebrows when he heard about it, as if he knew about it, and only asked: "When will you leave?" ”

Tong Yuqing narrowed her eyes and replied: "It's about ten days later, the specific time hasn't been set yet, I'll tell you when I'm ready." ”

Although Tong Yuqing said so, in fact, she had already booked a ticket to depart from Puhe to the south bank of the Pujiang River in three days and a ticket to leave from the south bank of the Pujiang River to Fusu Prefecture five days later. Over the years, she has experienced too many life and death, and she doesn't want to shake her determination to leave because of those familiar faces.

The two of them said a word, Tong Yuhao and Bai Jiayin beside them were like ants on a hot pot, Tong Yuhao pulled Tong Yuqing out of the door, and Bai Jiayin also persuaded Bai Qiaoxuan in the room, "Brother, are you busy and confused?" How can you let Sister Yuqing leave like this? ”

Bai Qiaoxuan didn't seem to understand her sister's words, "She has hands and feet, and she doesn't have to worry about not being able to survive when she is outside, why can't she be let go?" ”

Bai Jiayin hurriedly said: "Don't pretend to be confused!" Of course I know that she can live well outside alone, but when she leaves, the two of you will really be over, are you willing to do it? ”

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled and asked, "What do you mean we're really going to end?" When did we start? If there is no beginning, where is the end? ”

Only then did Bai Jiayin understand why her brother was willing to let Tong Yuqing go, some love in this world has a beginning and an end, some have a beginning and an end, and some have no beginning and no end. The love between them is this last, with no beginning and no end......

Tong Yuqing left most of her savings over the years to Mi Lan as a dowry, leaving only enough silver taels for herself to support Fusu Prefecture. When she left, the night was like water, the evening breeze was light, she took one last look at the place where she and Qing Ziting had left a mark of happiness, and then set out on the way home with a smile. Ziting, we're moving, and from now on, wherever I go, it's our home......

The rolling south of the Pujiang River to the south bank changed the previous turbulence, quiet and soft like a little girl, Tong Yuqing closed her eyes and enjoyed the cool wind blowing from the river, and said secretly in her heart: "Goodbye, Pujiang; Goodbye, Pu Xinzhou; Goodbye, my hometown ......"

"But you haven't said goodbye to me yet."

Tong Yuqing was like an electric shock, his whole body was so stiff that he couldn't move, how could he be here......

Bai Qiaoxuan walked to her leisurely, looked at the scenery of the water and sky in the distance, and asked, "Do you think I can't detect what you think in your heart, or do you think I can't find the ticket information?" ”

Tong Yuqing looked around and asked in a panic, "Didn't you bring a guard?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan looked at her with a smile in his eyes, "What are you doing with the guards?" Tell the world that the overseers of Puxin Prefecture have arrived on the south bank of the Pujiang River, and let someone with a heart come to assassinate me? ”

"......"

"Okay," Bai Qiaoxuan's eyebrows and eyes curled, and his lips also curved in a charming arc, "Since I dare to come to look for you, I am naturally fully prepared, and besides, have you forgotten where this place belongs?" I'm at my own doorstep, can something happen? ”

Tong Yuqing was enlightened, patted his forehead and said, "I only remember that you are now an Overseer, but I have forgotten where you came from. Your roots in Baijiawan are deeper than those in Puhe, and the chances of an accident are not much. ”

Tong Yuqing suddenly laughed, and Bai Qiaoxuan asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Tong Yuqing's smile hid the washing of the years, and thousands of emotions, "I suddenly remembered the scene when we had a long conversation for the first time, and you told me at that time that you have a long-cherished wish to reach the top." I didn't expect that now you are really standing at the pinnacle of Puxin Prefecture's political arena, and no one can match it. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan's thoughts went back to that night many years ago, and he sighed: "It's been ten years......"

Saying that, Bai Qiaoxuan remembered something again, "How can I vaguely remember that someone seems to have said that after I become the overseer of Puxin Prefecture, I will be my first minister?" ”

Tong Yuqing smiled: "This first assistant minister has already given way to her younger brother, and I ask the overseer not to mention this matter again." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled and pointed at her, "It seems that this corpse vegetarian minister still has a little conscience." ”

Tong Yuqing was about to hit him, Bai Qiaoxuan laughed while hiding, "Hey, the first assistant minister who has abdicated still dares to fight the overseers?" ”

Tong Yuqing put down her hand with a smile, "Seriously, Xi'er is pregnant, and the problem on Yu Shi's side needs to be solved urgently, you ran so far just to send me?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan looked at the Honghu in the sky and said, "Xi'er is pregnant, and there are a large group of nurses and maids in the house following her. The problem of Yu Shi is not solved overnight. You also know that the Yu clan has been standing in Puxi for longer than your Tong clan has been standing in Pudong, and before me, how many overseers wanted to capture Yu Shi and take it for themselves? But the Yu clan is as immobile as a mountain, no matter how the outside world changes, it will not affect their livelihood. Is such a deep-rooted force something that I can uproot by pressing a million troops under Yu Shi City? ”

Tong Yuqing thought for a while and asked, "Do you want to be Huairou?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan shook his head, "Qu, Xu, and Ji rebelled, I can fight; King Duro sells drugs, and I can also fight; But the Yu family, I can't fight, and I can't fight. As long as you are human, you can't be without desires. I will bring prosperity to them, and I will not believe that they will not open the gates of the city themselves. I may not see this scene in my life, and my son may not see it, but I believe that one day, my children and grandchildren will see it, unless any of my unscrupulous children and grandchildren rebel in their own nest and destroy the family property I have saved for them, then this is another story. ”

Tong Yuqing was amused by his words, "You have a really big heart." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan deliberately misinterpreted her meaning, "The heart is not big, how can I accommodate these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains?" Okay, let's get down to business, I'm not looking for you today, not to talk to you about the world, I have something important to entrust you. ”

Tong Yuqing was a little weak-hearted, afraid that he would see through his heart, so he asked in a low voice: "You have Xi'er, a good wife, in your house, Yuhao and Yang Hao in the division to help you control it, and there are also Wu Kui, Sun Yi, Qu Zeng, these famous ministers and good generals in the army, what else do you need me to help with?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan didn't answer, but asked, "When do you plan to come back when you go out this time?" ”

Tong Yuqing sighed in her heart, she was really afraid of something......

"A year, two years? Or ten or twenty years? ”

Tong Yuqing lowered her head and didn't speak, and Bai Qiaoxuan said to herself: "It doesn't seem to be either." Thirty years, forty years? ”

Tong Yuqing still didn't respond, and Bai Qiaoxuan said affirmatively: "Forty years." Don't be delusional that you're gone forever, forty years later, still in this place, I'm here to pick you up, you have to come back. ”

Tong Yuqing's eyes were warm, "Qiao Xuan...... Don't push me, I really don't want to come back......"

Bai Qiaoxuan said lightly: "Aren't you afraid, one day, I will become a mediocre overseer like Fu Renjiu?" ”

Tong Yuqing looked up at him suddenly, his eyes were as calm as water, but it made Tong Yuqing's heart throb, "You...... You won't ......."

Bai Qiaoxuan asked, "Why not?" I am also a human being, and there will be times when people make mistakes, can you guarantee that I will never make mistakes? ”

Tong Yuqing couldn't answer. Bai Qiaoxuan said again: "If you can't guarantee it, just listen to me." ”

Tong Yuqing asked helplessly: "I can't come back, does it have anything to do with whether you make a mistake or not?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan replied without thinking about it: "Of course there is." As long as you come back one day, I will not dare to relax a little, let alone make mistakes. Because even if one day I don't have the country and the people in my heart, I won't be without you. If you don't care about the people of Puxin anymore, that's okay. There is a proverb that says "Today's Affair Finishes Today." I will say again, the love of this life is also the end of this life. Don't tell me that you still have an afterlife, shouldn't your next life be left to Ziting? ”

Tong Yuqing wanted to refute, but found that she had nowhere to refute at all, Bai Qiaoxuan continued: "The entanglement in this life is enough, I don't want to drag it out in the next life." Therefore, you must come back, and don't let me have regrets and turn into a terrible ghost and haunt you in the next life. ”

Tong Yuqing racked her brains and finally thought of something to argue, "But how do I know if I am still alive in the world after forty years?" Even if you live in the world, can you still walk? ”

Bai Qiaoxuan was obviously prepared, and said directly: "Forty years later, you are only sixty-five years old, and I, a sixty-eight-year-old man, have the confidence to rush here, you don't have confidence?" If you don't, then take my word as a command, you must live to be sixty-five years old, and be physically fit and able to walk. And ......"

Tong Yuqing was even more surprised, "And?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan continued: "Of course, the last point is the most important. You can't come back alone, you have to bring back the person who has been with you for half your life, let me see which brother is so capable of accepting you. ”

Tong Yuqing's face suddenly turned pale, "Impossible, it's impossible for me to marry again." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan asked, "What if, this is Ziting's last wish?" You will also tell him, is it impossible? ”

Tong Yuqing looked at Bai Qiaoxuan in shock and muttered, "What are you talking about......"

Bai Qiaoxuan repeated, "This is Ziting's last wish. He wants me to persuade you after he leaves, so that you can let go of the past as soon as possible and start a new life. He hopes that there will be someone who will love you and love you for him, and he hopes that you will have a group of children and grandchildren around your knees. I should have told you these words five years ago, but there has been a wave of peace outside the home and abroad, and I have never had the heart to tell you. Now that you are about to travel far away, it will be too late to say anything more, so I have come here to tell you his last wish. ”

Tong Yuqing's tears were like pearls with broken threads, and they wet her clothes one by one, "Ziting ......"

Bai Qiaoxuan waited for her emotions to gradually calm down and asked, "Do you want to go out and find that person by yourself, or stay and let me find it for you, you choose." Anyway, I must fulfill my promise to Ziting. ”

Tong Yuqing sobbed and said, "I beg you...... Don't push me ......"

Bai Qiaoxuan knew that the emotional matter could not be forced, so he took a step back and said, "Okay, I don't force you to get married, I can't let you wronged yourself for the sake of your commitment to us." I just need you to promise me, if one day, you meet a good relationship, and your reason for rejecting him cannot be Ziting. Even if there is no one in this world who understands you better than me, and no one loves you more than Ziting, you can't give up the right to love and be loved. That's not too much to ask, isn't it? ”

Tong Yuqing covered her face with her hand and asked silently in her heart: Ziting, is this really what you expected......

The smile that answered her was still as warm as jade, Tong Yuqing understood it, and tried to squeeze out one word, "Good ......"

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled with satisfaction, hugged Tong Yuqing hard, and pointed to Pu Jiang and said, "Then say okay, forty years later, I will wait here for you to come back." Pujiang is a proof, the day you return, that is, the time of prosperity! ”

Tong Yuqing felt something in her heart and sighed: "It's my life to meet you; Meeting Ziting is my luck. Now that Ziting is gone, I just wish you well. You must take care and wait until the day I return. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan said with a smile: "A word is a certainty, and the journey is safe." ”

Tong Yuqing stepped on the deck, leaned on the railing, and quietly watched Bai Qiaoxuan get farther and farther away from her, until he became a small dot in the distance, she finally couldn't help but shout: "Goodbye!" ”

Tong Yuqing noticed that there was a person behind him silently watching her, so she turned around...... After seeing the man's face clearly, she couldn't help but be stunned in place, and only came back to her senses after a while, brushed away the tears on her face, stepped forward to salute, and shouted, "Mr. Zimo." ”

A touch of sadness flashed in Yu Zimo's eyes, "It's finally ......"

Tong Yuqing couldn't understand his words and asked, "Or what?" ”

Yu Zimo ignored her, and walked to the railing while chanting a song:

Bodhi is not a tree, and the mirror is not a platform

There was nothing to stir up dust

The breeze is coming and the wisteria flowers are blooming

Your arrival was an accident

Not to mention that it should not be said to be emotional

Thousands of dependencies are only because you are there

My altar is dominated by you

The love of a lifetime

Xu Qing's undeparting love

Just for your pure whiteness

A wisteria tear, contaminated with the dust of the world, disturbed Tong Yuqing's mood, she slowly continued:

Yes, yes, wisteria is no more

Love is as deep as the sea, and it is not long

You left me alone, leaving me with only half a wreckage

It's me who is so bad for your love

Why our love

One can only look forward to it

You have to do it all over again

What remains unchanged is your and my love

In the next life, I will promise you a future
