Chapter 30: Back to the Light
I don't know how long it took, but I opened my eyes in a daze.
"Your Majesty...... The Emperor ......"
I turned my head and saw that it was Chen Yuanyuan, who was lying on the ground sleepy-eyed.
I looked around and found that I had been imprisoned by Zheng Zhilong's Eight Thieves.
I don't have to think about it to know that Zheng Zhilong definitely drugged the meal.
And his purpose in doing this was to use Lao Tzu and Chen Yuanyuan as bargaining chips to surrender Wu Sangui.
I originally thought that I could reverse history and let Zheng Zhilong follow me obediently, but I didn't expect the tragedy of history to repeat itself again.
"Hasty!" I scolded angrily, "Zheng Zhilong, my day is your uncle!" ”
"Don't be angry, Your Majesty!" Chen Yuanyuan comforted me.
Oh, Lao Tzu is not angry, Lao Tzu is aggrieved.
encountered King Fu usurping the throne in Nanjing, followed by Wu Sangui's rebellion, and finally arrived in Fuzhou, thinking that everything could be stabilized, but he didn't expect to meet Zheng Zhilong, a brute.
But the situation is worse now than before.
Because Zheng Zhilong has already stunned all my cronies, even his son Zheng Chenggong has been controlled by him, and Fuzhou is his territory, Lao Tzu can be said to be really difficult to fly this time.
I looked at the cell and asked, "What about the frost?" ”
"The folk girl doesn't know either."
Grass, I was desperate for a moment, I felt that Frost They might have been killed by Zheng Zhilong.
"Frost, frost! Wang Chengen...... Xiao Xia ......"
I shouted loudly, and there was no answer in the dimly lit prison except for my own echo.
After shouting for a while, I was completely deflated, and the whole person sat on the ground with a lot of thoughts in my heart.
Originally, I also planned to go north to Shengjing, and after negotiating with the Manchurian Tatars, I would let Wu Sangui withdraw from the army, and then Lao Tzu would immediately march to Taiwan, drive away the Dutch, and then rectify the dynasty to recuperate, and finally the Northern Expedition to achieve the hegemony of recovering the Ming Dynasty.
But now that everything is in vain, the sense of loss is simply inextricable.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the prison, and a jailer came over with drinks and food.
"Your Majesty, today is exactly the seventh and a half months, you eat some food and drink some wine, and General Zheng will send you on your way later!"
With that, the jailer brought in the food and drinks.
I shouted to the jailer: "You go and tell Zheng Zhilong, kill me, let him not kill others, everyone else is innocent!" ”
The jailer ignored me and left.
When the jailer left, I felt lost.
The reason why I am lost is not because I am afraid of death, but because I feel infinite emotion about the impermanence of life.
Frustrated, I took the wine sent by the jailer, raised my head and drank it, and then suddenly said: "The heroes of the world are out of my generation, and they are urged by the years of entering the rivers and lakes." In the talk and laughter of the emperor's hegemony, it is better than a drunk in life! Lifting the sword and boasting the ghost rain, the white bones are like mountain birds flying in shock. The world is like a tide, people are like water, only sigh a few people back in the rivers and lakes! ”
Lost, really lost!
Seeing that I was sluggish, Chen Yuanyuan crawled over, hugged me, and said: "The emperor has his own heavenly appearance, and he will be fine, and he will be fine!" ”
Looking at Chen Yuanyuan, my heart softened, and I couldn't help but recall the bits and pieces I had traveled through.
At first, I just wanted to be an emperor who lived secretly, but it was Chen Yuanyuan who changed me and made me determined to restore the Ming Dynasty, but now I not only can't recover the Ming Dynasty, but I also have to watch her being sent to Wu Sangui, and let Wu Sangui's beast be humiliated in every way.
Thinking of this, my heart hurts so much, I can't help but hug her tightly.
"Yuanyuan, it was I who hurt you, it's all to blame!"
"Your Majesty, I don't blame you, you are a good emperor, but I mistook the country with this play. If I hadn't been given to Wu Sangui in the first place, maybe it wouldn't have been like this! ”
"Don't mention Wu Sangui to me, I told you before, I'm not an emperor, I came through time. The reason why I am determined to restore the Ming Dynasty is all because of you. It's a pity that now I can't restore the Ming Dynasty and protect you, I ......"
I was so excited that I couldn't speak, but my love for Chen Yuanyuan was not false in the slightest.
It's a pity that Chen Yuanyuan still didn't believe what I said, she said to me: "Your Majesty, don't say that, I'm just a geisha, and I don't know what crossing is." ”
"I'm telling you, even if you're a geisha, even if the world looks down on you, I won't. It's a pity that I will never be able to fulfill the promise I made to you that day, and I will never be able to make you fall in love with me willingly again......"
I was full of emotion, Chen Yuanyuan didn't know how to answer, and at this time, she still didn't believe that my feelings for her were real.
Seeing this, I no longer forced to confide, but poured two glasses of wine and said: "Whether you believe it or not, since I can meet you through a hundred years, it can be regarded as fate." Come on, while I'm not dead, you can have a few drinks with me! ”
Chen Yuanyuan didn't refuse, and accompanied me to eat a glass of bitter wine, and his cheeks were crimson when he drank, which looked extremely pitiful.
Maybe it was because I was too sad, maybe this wine was too pure, I could have drunk two catties of liquor, but I drank less than half a pot, and I got drunk with Chen Yuanyuan in my arms.
……
"Hey, wake up, wake up!"
I vaguely heard someone calling me, and I opened my eyes.
I saw a white light coming in from the window, and the originally dark cell suddenly lit up.
I covered the white light with my hand and looked up, but there was no one, thinking that I might be dreaming.
I turned my head back and was about to fall asleep, but at this moment, someone shouted: "Luo Fei, you sleep with chicken feathers, get up quickly!" ”
Forehead......
What is the rhythm of this?
How can anyone know my name?
I sat up, and Chen Yuanyuan was also woken up by me.
"Who?"
"Ah......h
Chen Yuanyuan screamed, hugged me tightly, and trembled with fright.
I looked closely, and there were two people, one black and one white, standing in the corner of the cell.
The two of them stuck out their long tongues and held a shiny white paper in their hands, and on the cover of the book were written three big characters: "Life and Death".
"Hell!"
I screamed and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't be afraid, we are not ghosts, we are black and white, today is exactly half of July, I came to you to do something. ”
Forehead......
Is this true or false?
Usually things like black and white impermanence only appear in supernatural novels, how the could I come across them?
"What are you doing? Isn't Lao Tzu still dead? I asked out loud.
"You're not dead yet? You're dead. It was our two brothers who were negligent and let you cross over to Emperor Chongzhen, and now we are ordered by the king of Hades to deal with your legacy problems. ”
Hearing this, Chen Yuanyuan looked at me in surprise and began to believe what I said before.
"What's the legacy?"
"It's about your life and death. You were supposed to die in 2017, but you ended up traveling to the Ming Dynasty. Now that Lord Yan is pursuing this matter, he gives you two choices, one is to stay in the Ming Dynasty, and the other is to travel back! ”
Hearing this, I was excited, thinking that black and white impermanence is the person in charge of life and death, so I asked him if I chose to stay in the Ming Dynasty, would I be killed by Zheng Zhilong immediately.
As a result, the two dogs said that the secret of heaven should not be revealed, and told me to choose quickly, and said that after twelve o'clock, I had no choice, so I could only stay in the Ming Dynasty.
To be honest, after all this time, I really miss my classmates and my parents.
So I asked, "So if I travel back to 2017, will I be dead or alive?" ”
"It's said that the secret of heaven must not be revealed! Hurry up and choose, choose my brother and two to go back to the business! ”
As he spoke, Black and White Impermanence handed me the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen, and asked me to make my own √ in the selection bar above.
Holding the book of life and death, buddy, for the first time, I felt that my fate was in my hands, but I fell into hesitation and didn't dare to put pen to paper.
The reason why I didn't dare to write was not because I was greedy for life, but because I hesitated about which world I should exist in.
Seriously, I was disgusted at crossing over to Chongzhen at first, but as time went on, I became more and more reluctant to leave the Ming Dynasty and the brothers who were loyal to me.
Seeing that I was reluctant to write, Black and White Impermanence said very unhappily: "Don't delay JB, let's be honest with you, you travel back to 2017, and you may still live." Now you can choose! ”
Hearing this, Chen Yuanyuan said excitedly: "Your Majesty, go back, you won't die if you go back!" ”
As soon as Chen Yuanyuan's words fell, a familiar voice came from the end of the prison.
"General Zheng, I said that the night is long and the dream is many, it is best to kill Chongzhen now, and tomorrow we will go to Tongling to see Wu Dashuai. As long as you carry Chongzhen's head, plus the beauty Chen Yuanyuan, the handsome will definitely not touch your Zheng family in the slightest! ”
It was none other than the scumbag who spoke in Mao Bijiang.
If I'm not mistaken, the man who rode away from the gate of the Zheng family's mansion that day on a white horse should be him.
He must have taken refuge with Wu Sangui after the city of Nanjing was broken, and then helped Wu Sangui go south to Fuzhou to lobby Zheng Zhilong.
Fuck it! Knowing this, Lao Tzu should have killed this beast in the first place, otherwise it wouldn't have happened.
"What Mao Gongzi said is reasonable, it's really not good to have a lot of dreams at night, then I'll kill Chongzhen now!"
After Zheng Zhilong finished speaking, I heard the sound of drawing a knife.
"Your Majesty, it's too late if you don't choose, hurry up!" Chen Yuanyuan said excitedly.
How do I choose?
How do I choose?
