Chapter 42: Reluctance

"Ahem! Indeed, the night was deep. Zheng Hao turned to Bian Yujing and said.

"Yes, it's time to rest, is Brother Hao going to stay with me, or go back?" Bian Yujing looked at Zheng Hao and pursed his lips and chuckled.

"Does Brother Yujing want me to stay or leave?" Zheng Hao asked.

"If I want you to stay, will you?" Bian Yujing chuckled lightly and looked at Zheng Hao.

"Brother wants me to stay, and I should obey myself." Zheng Hao said with a red face, his heart was beating a little.

As a **** little junior brother, he is full of expectations for everything that will happen after he stays.

"Then you, just stay here, don't hide it from Brother Hao, I will leave Wuxi tomorrow and return to Jinling." Bian Yujing's expression darkened and said.

"Huh? Is Brother Yujing going to leave so soon? My brother was a little reluctant in his heart. Zheng Hao heard Bian Yujing say that he was leaving, and he was stunned.

However, Bian Yujing has always stayed in Wuxi temporarily, and sooner or later he will have to leave.

Zheng Hao is poor now, and it is not easy to keep her.

But Zheng Hao suddenly thought that Bian Yujing was a single household among Youling, that is, she had personal freedom, and she could make her own decisions if she wanted to marry whomever she wanted.

Zheng Hao didn't have to pay for her.

Zheng Hao's heart moved, thinking, but he wanted to ask her what she really thought, whether she was willing to stay in Wuxi and struggle with herself.

"Yes, there is no feast in the world, although Wuxi is good, after all, it is a foreign country, I can't keep wandering outside, right? If Brother Hao misses me, you can meet you in Jinling. Bian Yujing said softly.

"What if, I want Brother Yujing to stay? Don't do this anymore, it's better for Brother Yujing to marry me, let's be a pair of immortal couples in the future, how about it? Zheng Hao stretched out his hand and grabbed Bian Yujing's hand, looked into her eyes and said.

"Brother Hao, don't want to make me happy, I'm just a person who has left in the dust, and my brother has a bright future, we may not be a good match, it's better to just be a confidant and be more comfortable." Bian Yujing heard Zheng Hao suddenly reveal his heart to him, and his face showed a panicked look.

She flinched.

Zheng Hao was very surprised.

In the history that Zheng Hao has understood, Bian Yujing is a strange woman who dares to love and hate, in order to pursue romantic love, she is like a moth to a fire, regardless of it, and never die.

"Sister Yujing, what are you worried about? I, Zheng Hao, am also a true temperament, my husband is a promise, and he will never let down his sister. ”

Zheng Hao directly changed his name.

Originally, she was called Brother Yujing, to satisfy her careful thinking that she was treated equally.

Now, it may not be appropriate for him to take her as his own woman, and then call her "brother".

"Brother Hao, I have three worries; First, if you marry me, it will affect your future. Second, I am three years older than you, and I am already old and yellow, and when you are tired of me, how should I deal with myself? Third, since I met you, I have talked with you very happily, we have a similar temperament, we are friends who talk about everything, if I become your woman, I am afraid that I will lose your best friend, in that case, it will be worth the loss. It is precisely because of these three worries that I dare not accept your kindness. Bian Yujing said quietly.

Zheng Hao thought about it for a while, and he decided to have a deep talk with Bian Yujing to change her outlook on life and worldview.

"Sister Yujing, let's find a quiet room and have a deep talk, what if? I think the reason why you are worried about this is because you don't know me. Zheng Hao said to Bian Yujing.

The night was deep and windy.

Standing on the bow of this ship, there was a biting chill attacking, which made Bian Yujing a little nervous.

"It's fine. Brother Hao, please come with me. ”

Bian Yujing took Zheng Hao's hand and walked into a cabin on the first floor of the painting boat.

The cabin was not large, three or four square meters at most, but it was quite elegantly cleaned, with a bed and a dresser and a brocade stool beside the bed.

There was a faint fragrance wafting through the room.

Presumably this is Bian Yujing's boudoir on the painting boat.

"Brother Hao, please take a seat!"

Bian Yujing let Zheng Hao sit on the brocade stool next to the bed.

She herself sat on the edge of the bed.

"Brother Hao, what are you going to talk to me about?" Bian Yujing glanced at Zheng Hao and asked with a smile.

"Sister Yujing, what do you think of the general trend in the world?" Zheng Hao asked Bian Yujing.

"Brother Hao, do you want to talk to me about the general trend of the world? I think that although the saints are working hard to govern the world, the world has been erosive for too long, especially in the Central Plains, I have heard others say that the chaotic people are rampant, the plague is rampant, the white bones are exposed in the wilderness, there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, ten rooms and nine emptiness, and the earth is full of devastation, which is really tragic!

The above are internal worries. Outside, the Manchurian Tartars have repeatedly been on the border, and my Ming border army has been defeated again and again, defeated and undefeated, and the loss of teachers and lands is sad, and even, when last year, the Inspector Lu Gong was martyred in the war against the Tartars, which is really sad.

I've fallen to such a point. However, I think that although the world is difficult, as long as our army and people work together, the imperial court can really stop the internal fighting, and under the hard work of the Son of Heaven today, the Ming Dynasty will eventually have a day of revitalization. ”

Bian Yujing suppressed his frustration and expounded his own views.

A woman like Bian Yujing, because she often interacts with scholars and ministers, there is no shortage of fresh opinions and information, and she has her own thoughts, so it is normal to be able to say such things.

Zheng Hao thought to himself, this is blind optimism, I know no.

The Ming Empire has been completely decayed, just like a terminally ill patient, if you don't take drastic medicine, it is impossible to save it.

But under the current ruling order, the country wants to have major reforms and strengthen its own strength, which is almost a fool's dream.

Zheng Hao said in a deep voice: "Sister Yujing's discussion is very insightful, a woman can have such a deep understanding, it really makes me admire, it's just that your conclusion is a little too optimistic, I think that if there is no strong person, no big changes to turn the country upside down and revitalize, the national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty may come to an end, at least five years, at most ten years, maybe this dynasty will die." ”

Zheng Hao said at the end, his voice became deeper and lower.

If such words are heard by others, they are not possible.

"Are you saying that Da Ming is dying?" Bian Yujing's eyes widened when he boarded.

"Exactly!" Zheng Hao nodded.

"This, how is that possible? Although the Central Plains has been eroded, there is still a good situation in most of the southeastern territory. Bian Yujing said.
