Chapter Forty-Six: A Thought

For three days, three whole days, the sky was locked up in a dark room where no fingers could be seen, there was no food, no water, and even the air, it was thin and cold, and there was a musty smell. She didn't know if it was day or night, and she didn't know what would happen to the General's Mansion after she was taken away?

"Shura Seven Evils" is the most mysterious organization in the rivers and lakes of the seven killers of the Wuyin Building, according to legend, the martial arts of these seven people are high, unpredictable. He is worth 500,000 taels of silver, and each person only takes one business a year, and he goes out on a separate mission, and he has always started neatly and has no failures. At the moment when they appeared, the faces of the hundred officials changed in shock, and she came back to her senses, and the person had been taken out of the general's mansion by Zongzheng without worry. It was a degree she never dared to imagine. Then she was stripped of her dress and thrown into this dark, almost completely enclosed room, above which was the place where they had spent the night, by the hot spring. Locked up here with her, there is also Zongzheng worry-free himself.

She didn't understand his intention to do this, so she could only stay in a corner defensively, quietly waiting for Zongzheng Wuwu to speak first. This is three days, Zongzheng Wuwu has been very quiet, so quiet as if there is no such person, he does not speak, he does not move, and even his breathing is so shallow that people can't feel it.

The room was small, but it was empty, except for the floor and the walls. She curled up, still feeling cold, and shrank back into the corner.

"Are you cold?" In the dark, Zong Zheng Wuwu said a sentence in the past three days and asked her if she was cold. His voice was magnetic hoarse, cold and cold, like the temperature of the tiles beneath her.

Mantian pursed his lips, silent, and continued to shrink his body, the same silence. In such an environment, people will always involuntarily think back to her past life. And her life, except for the word sad, she can no longer think of other words that can be used to describe it.

She didn't eat or drink for three days, she didn't close her eyes, she felt tired and weak, all her mood was infinitely magnified in the silence, her head was a little groggy, she leaned against the wall, and finally had a trace of sleep.

In a daze, she felt that the wall she was leaning against suddenly became very warm, she naturally coveted that temperature, and unconsciously moved to the wall, wishing that her whole body could be embedded in it, and she didn't realize that the warm "wall" would move.

Zong Zheng Wu Wu urged the internal force to make the whole body warmer, and then hugged the slender woman in his arms a little tighter, his chin rested on the top of her head, gently rubbing the woman's head, and his heart was soft. This room had been a place of healing for him, and after the nightmare of thirteen years ago, he had locked himself up here, without eating, drinking, or seeing anyone, and in such darkness he had finally honed his heart to be ruthless. Since then, he has not been here for thirteen years. Now, re-entering this place, taking her with me, just to prove one thing. In those ten days of getting along day and night, in the warmth and sweetness he deliberately created, is the person who really falls, is it her, or himself?

When I woke up, I couldn't see anything when I opened my eyes, and the wall behind me was still cold and hard, no longer the warmth of my dream. She couldn't help laughing at herself, how could there be warmth on a wall. Dreams are always just dreams.

"Zongzheng is worry-free." She wasn't sure if he was still here, so she screamed. There was no response for a long time, and the surroundings were as silent as ever. She suddenly felt a tightness in her heart, and she had to admit that in the past three days, although she was on guard, she had never been afraid, because of his existence.

After a long time, just when she thought she was the only one in the room, a soft voice came from not far from her left: "Yes." Miraculously, it calmed her mind.

She sat up straight, gathered her thoughts, turned her head in his direction, and asked calmly, "How long are you going to lock me up?" ”

"With me, are you scared?" Zong Zhengwu's voice was indifferent, and she couldn't hear any emotion, but she clearly felt a helpless and sad state of mind. Perhaps staying in the dark for too long is prone to delusions. She sneered, sighed, and said, "Let me go." Don't forget that I am a princess who came with his relatives, and I am the will of Emperor Lintian, although General Fu is not as noble as your identity, but he holds the three armies in the end, has supreme prestige in the army, and controls the life and death of a country. No matter what you do, you can't change the fact that the marriage is a success. As long as he doesn't stop me for a day, I can only be the wife of General Weiguo, and there will be no intersection with you. ”

"If he divorces you, you, H, vi

"He's not going to divorce me." Her tone was calm and affirmative. If the Gang would have taken a leave of absence, it would have been three days ago.

"You're so convinced?" His voice suddenly became cold, mixed with an unconcealable hint of anger. Zong Zheng turned around without worry, and grabbed her shoulders, his gaze fixed on her eyes like an ice blade, and seeing in the dark was a kung fu he had already practiced when he was ten years old.

She instinctively wanted to avoid his sharp eyes, but she still tried her best to calm down, and calmly spat out one word: "Yes." ”

She felt a jolt in his body, half silent. There was a suffocating silence, and uneasiness grew in her heart. After a long time, the voice became colder and colder, and there was a trace of pain that could hardly be heard. "Why? If you acquired your body because I had a purpose, then do you think his motive for marrying you is simple? How do you know he's not taking advantage of you? ”

Man Tian smiled bitterly and said, "I do", "She wants to say that she would rather be used by the people of the world, but she can't bear his use and deception." She didn't say that sentence in the end, however, the three words "I do" fell on Zongzheng's worry-free heart like a sharp stab of a steel knife, a word, a hole.

His hand suddenly exerted force, and his five fingers seemed to be embedded in her shoulder bone, and he suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips fiercely, with a monstrous anger and punishment, as if he wanted to crush her into his abdomen with his lips and tongue.

She struggled hard, his arms were like iron tongs, no matter how hard she tried, she was only tightened by him.

A trace of bloody breath rolled into her mouth, spread deep in her throat, and reached the tip of her heart, I don't know if it was hers or his, anyway...... It's bitter.

He pushed her to the ground, and the kiss fell like a shower of rain without stopping, making the already thin air even more like nothing at the moment.

In less than a moment, the air in his chest was drained, and the suffocating pain in his chest swept through the sky, mixed with the wonderful pleasure brought by the entanglement of lips and tongues, it was so tempting that he couldn't stop. Such a real touch reminded him that at this moment, she was still his, she was still in his arms, under him. His hand quickly dug into her garment, searching for the last shred of solace in his soul that was in despair.

The body trembled for a while, and instinctively snorted, and was immediately shocked, in such a situation, she could still react? A sense of humiliation arose, what did this man think of her? I don't know where the strength came from, she took advantage of him, pushed him away, raised her hand without hesitation, and threw an extremely loud slap on his handsome face.

Zongzheng was stunned, and for a moment, his brain was in a blank state. What is he doing? He's using force on the woman he likes?! It was the most intolerable behavior of his life! As if he had been struck by a great blow, he sat up and pursed his thin lips in a straight line. My heart was empty, and I didn't feel anything about the hot pain on my face.

Man Tian hurriedly got up from the ground, clutched his clothes tightly, and leaned against the wall in the corner, greedy. I breathed in the air, but I still felt a lot of pain in my chest.

I don't know how long it took, Zong Zheng Wu opened his mouth and asked, "Aman, you are to me,... How sincere is it? ”

The sky looked up in surprise, and a proud person like Zongzheng Wuwu would ask such a question? She bowed her head again and did not answer him. No matter how sincere she is, she will also bury it.

Time passed little by little, and at that end, Zongzheng leaned back heavily, slammed on the wall and made a muffled sound, only to hear him smile bitterly, with self-deprecation, and said slowly: "Nothing?" That... Let's go. ”

The sky was stunned, a little unexpected, would he let her go so easily? He took the initiative to expose his strength, kidnapped her from the wedding in the General's Mansion, and locked her in this underground stone chamber with him for three days, what was he for? There was a rumbling sound in her ears, and the stone door opened, and a faint light shone in. Zongzheng's worry-free voice repeated with a sense of desolation that had gone through vicissitudes: "Let's go." She barely stood up, limp and weak, and could only hold on to the wall with her hands, and slowly walked out step by step. Out of the door, up a step, she couldn't help but look back, this look, she saw a self-deprecating smile hanging on the corner of the thin lips of the mouth, looking particularly sad, suddenly pierced her heart, a pain. Zongzheng Wuwu's face was pale, sitting on the ground decadently, his half-drooping eyes were full of pale expressions, and he had no arrogance and conceit on weekdays. Like a child who has been hit fatally.

Zong Zheng Wuwu seemed to feel her gaze, raised his eyes slightly, and the distress in the eyes of the woman in the dim light outside the door flashed, which made a glimmer of hope rise in his heart, he looked at her from afar, and said to her with all his sincerity: "Aman, if you are willing to turn back, I will give you a lifetime of unswerving love." Her heart shook, her body stiffened, and the leg that wanted to walk away seemed to be nailed to the ground, and she could no longer lift half a point. A lifetime of undying love? Such a sentence comes from the man she loves in her heart. "It's so tempting, it's so exciting. His gaze was so sincere and full of anticipation that it seemed to tell her that if she was willing to go back, even if it was just one step, her happiness with him would be within reach. Who can resist such a temptation? She bit her lip, struggling between reason and emotion, something woke up in her heart little by little, and was forcibly suppressed by her. She stood there all the time, half-looking back, motionless. The brilliance in Zong Zheng's carefree eyes gradually dimmed, and even the blood on her face that had just recovered her balance also receded, and her heart seemed to have been pricked by a needle, and she unconsciously turned her whole body.

Zong Zheng saw her turn around, his eyes lit up, waiting for her to take a step. At this moment, there was a sound of chiseling the wall overhead, louder than the other, when Zongzheng came in, he destroyed the mechanism outside, and could only open the stone door from the inside.

Suddenly woke up, and all sanity instantly returned to clarity. If she hadn't visited the church with Fu Chip, then there might still be room for her to turn into difficulties, but now that the ceremony has been completed, the marriage between the two countries is not a child's play, one Qiyun Kingdom, plus one commander of the three armies of the Lintian Kingdom, even if it is the Emperor Lintian, I am afraid that he will not be able to change anything. What's more, isn't it enough for her to be deceived by Zongzheng Wuwu once? How could she not have such a long memory! Do you have to wait for him to tell her as a victor that this is just another means of his, in order to prove that there is nothing in this world that he cannot afford to be a patriarch. How can her feelings be left to his discretion, she is a person, not his property.

Thinking of this, her heart returned to calm, she raised her chin slightly, her eyes were indifferent and cold, and said, "I won't believe you anymore!" On some roads, if you take a step out, there is no turning back. With that, she resolutely turned around, walked up the steps, and never looked back, so she couldn't see the eyes of the person behind her shattered, and laughed silently.

The remnant sun was like blood, staining half of the sky red. By the hot spring pool, the people who knelt on the ground all pressed their foreheads against the cold ground, and they didn't dare to come out.

Emperor Long Yan was furious, and shouted in a deep voice to the housekeepers and guards who left the palace: "It's been three days since my emperor entered this underground stone chamber, why hasn't anyone come to report to me?" You dog minions, what's the use of me raising you? In case of...... My emperor has three long and two short, and you will all die! "He is a prince in one mouth, this is a unique title for Zongzheng worry-free, and the worry is overflowing, and there is no ordinary composure. Thinking of that time thirteen years ago, when Wu Wu came out of here, he was even more anxious. He walked to the front of the dirt-covered land, and regardless of his identity, he raised his leg to the subordinate who was digging the passage a little slower, and shouted angrily: "It's not too fast, before dark, I can't see my emperor, and I have punished you nine clans!" ”

The men were horrified and replied, "Yes." ”

The loess is sprinkled all over the sky, reflecting the residual red of the setting sun. Cold sweat was like a waterfall, splashing the dirt all over the ground. Gonggong Chen brought a chair, but Emperor Lin was uneasy, his face was gloomy and frightening, and he paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. Behind him, the ministers lowered their eyes and did not dare to look up.

A small rumbling sound suddenly came from the side of the rock, which made everyone's bodies tremble, who were already extremely nervous, and then raised their eyes to look, and inside the stone door that was removed, a woman walked out, this woman was really amazingly beautiful, as if it was Princess Rongle who disappeared with the king. The faces of the people were happy, but they saw only the woman, and did not leave the king. Looking at her appearance at the moment, her face was pale, her steps were vain and weak, her hair was scattered on her thin fragrant shoulders, she was dressed in white clothes, and the red wedding dress three days ago had long since disappeared.

Everyone inhaled, looking at this situation, people unconsciously thought of what would happen to her in the same room with the lonely man and widow of the king in the past three days. They all looked at General Fu who was standing behind His Majesty the Emperor. A man was accused of his wife's uncleanness on his wedding day, which was a great humiliation, and after the worship service, his wife was taken away and spent three days and nights with others. In the face of this situation, it is indeed necessary to have a certain degree of tolerance.

Bo Chou's hands were secretly clenched, watching her slowly move forward, her slender body would go sideways when the wind blew, and there was an unknown gloom and pity in his eyes.

Seeing that there were so many people outside, he was slightly stunned, and then approached and saluted: "Meet His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Emperor Lin was stunned, and there was a flash of amazement in his eyes. No wonder it will cause such a big mess this time, it is really a red face! He saw that she was the only one who came out, his eyes sank, and he hurriedly walked towards the stone room, but he stopped after just a few steps, thought for a moment, turned around, looked gloomy, and asked calmly: "You are the eldest princess Rongle?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Lin walked up to her, stared at her with sharp eyes, and asked coldly, "Eldest Princess Rongle, are you guilty?" ”

Man Tian raised his head in surprise, frowned, and said, "Back to Your Majesty, Rong Le doesn't know." "What crime did she commit? She really didn't know.

Emperor Lin slapped his hand on the arm of the chair, stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "Hmph! You are so bold, at the palace dinner six days ago, you disguised yourself as a man to enter the palace, and found a fake princess to impersonate you to choose a husband in the palace, this is a bully! As a princess of Heqin, you are restless and stay in Princess Rongle's mansion, but you are swaggering everywhere, the prince who hooked me first, and then came to confuse the general of the country, and the relationship between the king and the general of the country is completely separated, and you want to 8 civil strife in our dynasty, which is really a great crime. Someone came, took her down, pressed her into a prison, and waited for disposal. His voice was so loud that it seemed to be absorbed in his internal strength, and he passed straight through the stone door that had not yet been closed, and passed into the underground stone chamber.

Mantian was shocked in his heart, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled an arc of ridicule, and the words of the emperor were not to clean up the trouble-free sect. All the blame will be borne on her alone. Create civil strife in the imperial court? What a big hat, just buckled on her head, it seems that Emperor Lin wants her life!

Bo Chip hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Majesty......", "Before he could speak, Emperor Lin's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he swept straight into his eyes, and cut him in a deep voice. said: "Fu Aiqing doesn't want to intercede for her, right?" She lost Aiqing's face and shamed Aiqing for life. She should be hated! ”

Fu Chip was stunned, and he naturally understood the meaning of these words. So, he said: "Your Majesty, the minister is from the perspective of peace between the two countries, and I hope that Your Majesty will not affect the friendship between the two countries for a hundred years because of a woman, causing the border soldiers to meet each other." I beg your Majesty to think twice. ”

Emperor Lin snorted coldly and said, "If Emperor Qiyun really cares so much about the friendship between the two countries, he should understand my execution of the princess. If you can't understand it, once the border war arises, there will be Lao Fu Aiqing. I believe that as long as there is Bo Aiqing, no one will want to set foot in the territory of my kingdom of heaven. ”

Fu Chip was about to speak, but Emperor Lin waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, I have made up my mind, Aiqing doesn't need to say much." Someone, take her down! ”

She smiled bitterly, she didn't refute it, in fact, she didn't even have the strength to speak, so she could only let the two guards come forward and stop her.

When the Nine Emperor Sons saw it, they hurriedly said: "Father is angry, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run"..."

"That's enough." Emperor Lin interrupted sharply: "I have said that the joint intention has been decided. Whoever dares to intercede again will be punished with the same crime! Take. "The supreme majesty of the emperor doesn't sound like there's any room for turning around.

The Nine Emperors had no choice but to stop. "Stand back. The surrounding ministers knew that if Princess Rongle was executed, a war between the two countries would be inevitable, but at this time, even the general and the Nine Emperors had hit a wall, and they didn't dare to say anything. One by one, they looked down at their shoes, and they didn't dare to lift them up for half a minute. Bo Chip and the Nine Emperor Princes saw that the woman was dragged down the mountain by the guards, and they couldn't do anything.

"Let her go." A cold commanding word, with a natural kingly momentum, makes people want to surrender unconsciously. The guards instinctively stopped their movements, and they didn't have to look back, knowing that no one else dared to give orders with such an attitude in front of Emperor Lin except for Zongzheng's worry-free affairs.

The Nine Emperors' faces were overjoyed, and he immediately greeted him and shouted, "Seventh brother, you finally came out, you are really going to kill me." ”

Out of the stone room, Zongzheng is worry-free, and he has restored the former departing king who was high above and empty. His eyes were like hell pools, cold and evil, his thin lips opened lightly, and he said lightly: "Let her go." ”

When Emperor Lin saw him, he finally relieved himself, but he also understood one thing. He took a few steps forward, and looked at Zongzheng Wuwu's eyes were very complicated, there were worries x love, anger, and resentment, and finally turned into a long sigh, and he said helplessly: "Worry-free, you are messing around again." After that, the stone chamber was shut up, and no further entry was permitted. ”

Zongzheng Wuwu didn't seem to hear it, and he didn't look at him, his tone was still calm and indifferent, but he had a little more firm strength, and said, "I said, let her go!" ”

Emperor Lin looked at the woman who was being held by the guards and said, "Okay, since the king is leaving the king's intercession, this matter will end here, and no one is allowed to mention it again in the future." Do you understand? In the end, the voice had become very cold, and everyone hurriedly said, "Obey." "The sound is neat.

Fu Chip stepped forward to support her unstable body and said softly, "Be careful." ”

Mantian desperately controlled himself not to look at Zongzheng worry-free, only nodded to Fu Chip, reluctantly pulled the corners of his lips and smiled faintly at him, borrowed his strength to stand firm, and said: "Thank you!" ”

Zong Zheng looked at them coldly, the hands in his sleeves were clenched tightly, but his face was the usual indifferent and calm expression, and he couldn't see the slightest wave. He took a deep breath, turned his eyes, ignored the crowd, and walked straight forward, staggering past hers, and steadily descending the mountain, step by step.

The wind gently blew his ink flying, his back was slightly stiff and straight, and the calligraphy and painting were resolute and indifferent. The long white figure, under the reflection of the afterglow of the remnant sun, added a bit of gloom and coldness, isolating him from the world of everyone behind him.

The red face and white pain are all kinds of o47 and the red dust concubine laughs

Time is like a ridge, and it is a year in the blink of an eye. On a midsummer afternoon, the sun is blazing.

The General's Palace, the Garden of Tranquility. In the verdant bamboo forest, he looked for a shady place and pressed the chess table, holding a red piece in his hand, looking at the chessboard in a daze.

Master, why are you staying here? Ling'er strode over, asking with a smile as she walked.

Manxiao said lightly: The weather is getting hotter and hotter, I can't sleep, it's cool here, I'll come out for a while. ”

Ling'er sat down beside her, picked up her shoulder and gently fanned the wind for her, and said, "Master wants to play chess?" I'll be with you. "I have been with my master for four years, although I am not good at learning, but watching my master play chess with himself, I always feel that this makes people feel too lonely.

Man Yao shook his head lightly and said with a smile: You, let half of your son, you can't stand a pillar of incense. What about Xiao Xu? Lately, he has always been busier than me. ”

When Ling'er heard this, she immediately pouted and complained Yes, master, every time I have something to look for him, I can't find anyone, so you have to talk about him. ”

Man Yao smiled slightly, and just raised his eyes to see the housekeeper of Wailiang in the bamboo forest walking over with a few boxes in his hands, and saluted to the ground, "Mrs. Yu, this is sent back by the general Gangzhou, saying that it is the emperor's reward." Madame, please. She glanced symbolically, nothing more than gold and silver jewels, silk and satin, and when she looked at the last delicate and small wooden box, her eyes lit up, and she stood up at once.

Ling Er asked curiously: "Master, what is this?" ”

Lichee. The crimson color, it looks very fresh, and she took one in her hand, cold to the touch, and on this strong summer day, she felt unusually comfortable and pulled the upper layer, and saw that there was some crushed ice underneath. In this world, there are very few fruits, especially lychees, which are not easy to store, and in this era of poor transportation, they are often no longer fresh when they are transported to the capital. And ice cubes are even more rare.

Steward Liang smiled respectfully and said: Madame is really well-informed. Xiangmei, this box of lychees is left for Mrs.

Man Yao waved his hand and said: "No need, leave a little to taste, and send the rest to the cellar, and wait for the general to return home and use it." ”

Yes, ma'am. Steward Liang smiled with relief, and then led everyone to retreat. Scraping the lychee shell, a long-lost sense of familiarity rose from the bottom of her heart, and she couldn't remember how long it had been since she had eaten a lychee. These fruits are not available in Qiyun Kingdom, and the capital of Lintian Kingdom is only available in the Imperial Palace.

Ling Er smiled and said Master, the general is so good to you, no matter what His Majesty the Emperor rewards, the general always sends it back for the master to taste for a while. ”

Man Yao smiled slightly, his eyes drooped lightly, and he did not speak. Ling'er tilted her head to look at her, and always felt that there was a faint indescribable melancholy between her eyebrows, so she asked Master, do you know? Now, the women in the entire capital are envious of their master for marrying a good husband. But why do I think you, master...... Not happy at all? ”

Stunned, these days, she didn't think about whether she was happy or unhappy, she treated her very well, so good that she was impeccable, except for business, no matter where she went, he would take her with him, no matter where she was, he always cared for her and cared for her, and never taboo the presence of outsiders. This kind of care makes her feel unreal and too deliberate, more like doing it to others, announcing to the world how good she is when he is. Even so, she should be content, Fu Chip has no concubine, she doesn't have to face the intrigue between women, such a peaceful life has always been what she wants, but why can't she be happy?

Ling'er also said that when I didn't come to Heaven before, I felt that the master seemed to have a lot of things on his mind, but later, when he came to the Kingdom of Heaven, the master's thoughts were more than before. Master, it's been so long, are you still complaining about the emperor? ”

After a year, it doesn't matter whether you complain or not, everyone has their own position. Bi Jing: Her life is already very good now. Man Yao slowly stood up, looked at the floating clouds in the sky, and said in a misty voice, I am not unhappy, and now it is like this, it is very good. "The heart is like water, life is calm and waveless, there is nothing wrong. She carved a lychee, handed it to Ling'er, and said: You can taste it too. ”

Ling'er took it and tasted it, nodded again and again, and praised: Well, it's really delicious. It's a pity that the box is too small. ”

Manyao said: "There are already a lot of this box, I heard that only Jiangnan produces lychees, and it is so fresh to be transported to the capital, it must be a quick whip." I don't know how many people changed along the way, and how many horses were killed.

Ling'er didn't understand very well, so she only said: "If the master likes it, just let the general send someone to Jiangnan to hurry up and bring it back." Anyway, there are people under the general, and he is so good to his master, he will definitely agree. ”

He smiled and said, "You think I'm Yang Guifei." "As soon as the concubine rode the red dust, no one knew that it was a lychee. The poignant love between the elder brother woman and the emperor left nothing but to prove that "the most ruthless emperor's family". She never wanted to be earth-shattering, but she just wanted a stable life. However, such a meager wish could not be fulfilled in the end.

Ling Er was curious: "Who is Yang Guifei?" ”

"An ancient." ”

Ling'er", as if remembering something, said: "The master said that lychees are produced in Jiangnan, isn't Jiangnan the fief of the king?"

Man's hand trembled, and the half-lined branches fell to the ground and rolled far away. It's been a long time since anyone has heard of that name. A year ago, after three days in the black room, he resolutely left the capital and went to the fiefdom despite the strong opposition of Emperor Lin, and no one knew what the reason was. At the time of the New Year, all places have tribute, but there is no tribute in the south of the Yangtze River, with his temperament and the disgust of the palace at that time, how can he quickly whip up and specially send Liji into Beijing? She was so absorbed that she didn't hear Ling'er call her a few times.

Rong Le, what are you thinking? So fascinating. At some point, Bo Chip appeared beside her.

He came back to his senses and said with a slight smile, why did the general come back so early today? ”

Fu Chip habitually shook her hand, pulled her to sit down, and said with a smile: Why, don't you like me to come back early? ”

Man Yao smiled lightly: "Of course not. I just think, parasitic. She was used to him holding her hand, and since they were husband and wife, they always had to try to accept each other's approach. After sitting down, she suddenly turned her eyes, looked at him, and said with a smile, "The lychee skills rewarded by His Majesty today are very fresh." ”

Bo Chip was slightly stunned, frowned, and said, "Lychee? Your Majesty's rewards today are only gold, silver and jewelry, where did the lychees come from? ”

was stunned for a moment, and Ling'er next to him hurriedly said: "General, yes, the slaves and maids have also eaten." You see, there was a drop on the ground just now.

Fu Chip followed the direction of her finger and saw the mellow technique that rolled down to the ground, his eyes were suddenly sharp, and he shouted outside the bamboo forest, "Xiang Ying." ”

Subordinates are in. ”

Fu Chip turned around and asked, "When did Your Majesty's reward today have one more Liji?" Xiang Ying said: "Back to the general, his subordinates were ordered by the general to send His Majesty's reward back to the house, and not long after leaving the palace, Gonggong Chen chased after his subordinates and said that we took one less." also said that this box of lychee skills is for Mrs. ”

Manyao's calm heart suddenly gave birth to a trace of panic, and he held his hand, his fingertips a little pale. Emperor Lin had lingering feelings for her because of the incident a year ago, why would he give her rare things for no reason?

Fu Chip's face was slightly gloomy, his eyes were deep, he looked back at her, and said, "It seems that he has arrived in the capital." It's really fast, such a long journey, it only took five days. She lowered her eyes, her fan-like thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and she involuntarily asked softly, who is the general talking about?

Fu Chip smiled elegantly, that smile seemed to have a special meaning, and said, "Naturally, it is the king." ”

Man Yao knew that this was the answer, but his heart was still a little confused unconsciously. Fu Chip held her hand again and asked What's wrong with you, why are your hands still so cold on such a hot day? ”

Without a trace, he withdrew his hand, picked up a chess piece casually, and said with a faint smile: "I'm fine." "I'm talking about leaving the king, doesn't he dislike the palace?" Why will I come back",

Fu Chip didn't answer and asked: How did Rong Le know that he didn't like the palace? ”

He was obviously smiling, and it was his usual gentle smile, but she felt a little cool inexplicably. Man Yao turned his eyes, spread out his palm, and before he knew it, what he was holding was a sunspot. She lowered her eyes and was half-silent.

Fu Chip didn't seem to care, and said with a smile: "Seven days later, there will be a flower-viewing banquet in the palace. You come with me. ”

It's another banquet, she frowned. Bo Chip held her hand, along with the chess piece in his palm, and he used great force as if he was going to crush the chess piece between his palms. After a while, Fang Dao, Rong Le, I know that you have never liked that kind of occasion, but this time it is Your Majesty's will, and all civil and military officials must bring their wives and daughters to participate. So, only Yu "wronged you." ”

How sincere he said! Manyao pursed his lips, aggrieved, this is not a grievance, it is just a social interaction that he doesn't like. It's just that why did Emperor Lin let his ministers bring their wives and daughters to participate? Or in the manner of the Holy Decree! She nodded and said softly, "Okay." ”

Fu Chip smiled and took her shoulder, helped her to get up, and said softly: "Don't worry, I'm here." Don't let others bully you. She smiled lightly and lowered her head, silent.

Night has fallen, and the moon has not yet exited a black hole in the sky.

Qingyou Garden, the most remote garden in the General's Mansion, has deep vegetation and looks a little desolate, but it also has a little more sense of nature. There is a natural pond in the garden against the courtyard wall, and the water in the pond is very cool. In the summer, she likes to come here alone after dark, brushing the water surface with water, which can calm the hot and boring heart in the summer.

Bo Chip accompanied her here tonight, standing behind her, quietly watching her water-brushing movements, not saying a word. Zhou Wei was very quiet, and the sporadic few dim candle flames were projected far away in the water, reflecting her white and slender fingers, with an indescribable Gu touching beauty. Fu Chip pressed his steps to step forward, gently looked away, and looked in a distant direction.

This garden is very empty, only a few people live, and usually no one comes here, so the people in the garden are more presumptuous, as soon as they talk, just. Unobstructed.

Three girls came out of a room to the west, with food in their hands, and sat down at a stone table in the middle of the courtyard. A girl sitting in the middle, ten ** years old, looks very pretty, and has a bit of arrogance on her face that is different from ordinary people. The girl on the left chased away the little insects flying in front of her, and complained: "There are the most insects in this garden, when can we leave this broken garden and go to the front yard to serve?" She said as she pushed the food in front of her to the woman in the middle, and said Kaoru girl, give it, you eat first. When you become Mrs. Side, don't forget us! ”

Miss Kaoru had a bit of the posture of a future master, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not forget you." ”

The girl on the right pouted and said, "Look, the general has forgotten about you." It's been more than a year since Madame entered the door, who doesn't know that the general loves Madame very much, how can he still remember you. Besides, Madame is so beautiful, just like a fairy, look at you, where can it be compared? ”

When Miss Kaoru heard this, her face suddenly darkened, and she snorted coldly: What can an unclean woman be no matter how beautiful she is? I was a general at the age of fifteen, at least I gave the general a clean body, can she compare? ”

You're lucky, isn't it just once? It was an accident. I'm weird, the general was injured and unconscious, how did he touch you? ”

Kaoru turned pale, and then smiled mysteriously, "Well, I won't tell you." ”

Several people laughed, and the girl on the left said, "Hey, don't you think it's strange, it's been more than a year, and I heard that the general has never entered his wife's room at night." Why do you say that? ”

Needless to say, she thinks she's dirty. Don't look at the treasure in her palm during the day, how can there be no thorns in your heart? Men, the most unbearable thing is that their women are not clean, so it is better to go to the Qinglou to find a prostitute. ”

That's right. However, having said that, the status of the king is noble, and he is His Majesty's favorite son, maybe he will be the future emperor, and he is so handsome, "If he can take a fancy to me, I am willing to die." ”

You think beautifully, and the king can take a fancy to you. Dream on! Miss Kaoru pushed the woman's head, and said that no matter how good it is to leave the king, I don't like it either. I just like, general..., Kaoru suddenly covered her mouth, looked at the man standing in the dark in front of her, her eyes widened in horror, the bowl in her hand fell to the ground and fell into three petals, the food in the bowl was scattered, and the eggs were stained with crimson vegetable juice, just like the bloody head that had been cut off on the table fell to the ground and rolled on the ground. The other two girls followed and looked up, and as soon as they saw Bo Chip, they were so frightened that their faces were colorless, their bodies trembled, and they knelt down in a hurry, and said in a trembling voice: "Will, will...... General, "Spare your life!" ”

The red face and white pain in a thousand ways o48 prove innocence

Fu Chip looked at them fixedly, his usual gentle expression did not change at all, but there was a bit of coldness in his eyes, and the bodies of the three girls kneeling on the ground were like sifting chaff, trembling violently. I only heard him shout: , Xiang Ying, go and call Liang Sheng over,

Steward Liang, who was in his forties, hurried over in less than a moment, his face was uneasy, and on a hot day, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and before he had time to wipe it, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "General, madam."

Fu Choidi glanced at him, and his voice couldn't hear any emotion, and said: "Liang Sheng, your days in charge of affairs in the mansion are not short, why are the subordinates in this mansion more and more unruly?" Dare to talk about the master behind his back! ”

Steward Liang's body was shocked, and he hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, and said: "The minions were derelict in their duties and failed to train them well, which made them offend the general and his wife." The minion is guilty, please "punish!"

"You're to be punished." Fu Chip paused, his eyes flickered, and he turned to look at the woman behind him, only to see Man Tian standing quietly aside, expressionless.

Sometimes, having internal force is not an absolute good thing. Her ears are better than ordinary people, so that in the past year, she has listened to gossip like the one she heard tonight more than once or twice, from the initial stinging to the current numbness, she has long been accustomed to it. Since you can't stop other people's mouths, -Hai-Tian#Chinese text version, if you want not to hurt, you can only numb your heart. She looked at the three kneeling on the ground with unusual calm, lowered her eyes, and said nothing.

Fu Chip walked over and took her hand, and said with a gentle smile: "Madam, what do you think...... How should they be punished? He always calls her Mrs. in front of people, and only calls her Rongle in private.

Man Tian was slightly stunned, not expecting him to ask for her opinion. She has been in the house for more than a year, and she has been living a refreshing and leisurely life, and she does not interfere in any trivial affairs in the house, and she doesn't want to bother with that. Usually no one dares to be presumptuous in front of her, since entering the mansion, she has never punished her subordinates, where do you know the rules of the general's mansion. Moreover, these four people, in addition to the two girls on the left and right, one is the housekeeper who has been with him for many years, and he must be the person he trusts very much; And although the other is a girl, but listening to the content of their conversation, it seems that the woman who has done him is not good if she is not clear about the rules of the house, or if the punishment is heavy. She frowned and thought for a moment, and finally threw the question back, and said lightly, "General, Rong Le is usually lazy, and I don't know the rules in this mansion very well," Let the general decide." ”

Fu Chip's eyebrows moved, nodded with a smile, and Fang turned around and said, "Xiang Ying, take Liang Sheng down, stake twenty canes, and deduct three months' monthly money." As for these three people, they are full of nonsense, retracting right and wrong, and breaking the rules of the house, so they can't be left. Dragged to the torture room and beaten to death. ”

"No, don't, general, the slave and maid know that they are wrong, the slave and the maid will never dare in the future, beg the general to spare the slave and the maid this time" General, spare the slave and the maid, the two girls on the left and right immediately turned pale, and rushed towards Fu Chip, and were about to grab his clothes and beg for mercy, but they were separated by two small servants, and they were about to be dragged outside the quiet garden. The Kaoru girl went limp, and she collapsed to the ground, her eyes widening and round, terrified. She knew that the rules in the mansion were strict, and it would not end well if she was broken by the general on the spot, but she never thought that the general would execute them because of this, and she suddenly burst into tears, and she even forgot to beg for mercy.

The sky was stunned, and unexpectedly, he couldn't help blurting out and stopped: Wait. Although he was already angry about life and death in the court, he was still surprised. The General's Mansion has always given her a calm and peaceful feeling, and she looks so gentle and elegant, not at all like the kind of cold and cruel person who will take human life as a child's play. At this moment, he was turning his head and smiling softly at her. It was really hard for her to imagine that a person could give a cruel killing order with such a charming smile.

Seeing that she was silent for a long time, there was suddenly a bit of sharp light in his eyes, as if to say that she had given up the right to dispose of it, why should she stop it. She also knew that she had already said that he was in charge, so she shouldn't interfere anymore, but Bi Jing is the life of Sancha! She has been in this world for four years, and she has the status of a noble princess and the capital that regards human life as a mustard, but she will never hurt people's lives at will. She doesn't think she's kind, she just doesn't like blood. But Fu Chip is different, he walks as a general, gallops on the battlefield, and between his spine and hands, it is the lives of tens of millions of people, how can such a person be as gentle and harmless as he sees on the surface?

When a girl saw her open her mouth to stop her, like a drowning person who was saving her life, she desperately broke free from the two little maids who were holding her, rushed over and hugged her legs, crying almost exhausted, and begged: Madam, the slave and maid know that you are generous and kind, and have a bodhisattva heart, please save the slave and the maid "The slave and the maid really know that you are wrong, you spare the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid do not want to die" Madam, please," she pleaded incoherently, and tears of horror flowed all over her face, Put all hope on the woman she caught.

Just now, she was a woman who was not as clean as a prostitute in their mouths, but now she has turned into a generous, kind, and bodhisattva-hearted lady, smiling sarcastically, human nature is like this. She sighed softly.

Fu Chip made a look, the little guy hurriedly stepped forward to put the girl away, Fu Chip stretched out his hand and grabbed her shoulder, his voice was extremely elegant and gentle, and asked, "Why is Madam sighing?" Isn't it too noisy for them to be idle?" Xiang Ying, telling them to be quiet. Xiang Ying responded, his body moved, and his fingers immediately pointed at the dumb points of the two people, and Yue Hoi suddenly fell silent, and only the gasping sound of a few of them could be heard.

The evening breeze was blowing, and the slightest stuffiness filled his chest, looking at Fu Chip's usual smile, and he felt a little uneasy for no reason.

He tilted his head and said, "Madame has something to say," but it doesn't hurt to speak. ”

Mantian thought about it for a while, and said slowly, "General, they" just. Without a cover, a small punishment and a big commandment are fine, and there is no need for their lives, right? She naturally knew that what these three people said was not only her sore spot, but also the shame that a man did not want to be revealed.

The gentle smile on the corner of Fu Chip's mouth was still there, but his gaze gradually sank, like a bottomless swamp. He looked at her for a while, and suddenly smiled: Okay, since you are madam, you have already opened. "How can a husband refute his wife's wishes? Just leave them to die, drag them down, and carry out the dumb punishment. When the two girls on the ground heard this, they rolled their eyes and fainted. Immediately someone came up and took them away

The body froze all over the sky, and he was dumb and punished, that is, he was beaten to the root of his tongue, and he could no longer speak.

Kaoru girl desperately grabbed a big tree, refused to let go, the rough bark was imprinted with a trace of bright red blood, she cried a thousand sadly, very aggrieved, said: I don't, general, you can't treat me like this, I'm different from them"

Fu Chip was still smiling, but his eyes were cold, he approached her, pinched her chin, and asked lightly: Oh? Where is it different",

Kaoru girl looked at his handsome face and became. Eating up, he said: I, I, a husband and wife for a hundred days, I have a ...... with the general There was ......"

Fu Chipdao: What's there? Say. ”

"There was a night of husbandry...... Husband and wife love",

"Really?" Fu Chip asked with a smile. Kaoru couldn't speak anymore, and her heart fell into his smile, beating as fast as a drum, as if she was going to use up the rest of her heartbeat at this moment, and she didn't notice that his voice was cold and emotionless.

A glimmer of light flashed in Fu Chip's eyes, and her fingers suddenly pinched hard, only to hear a click, the woman opened her eyes in horror, her eyes burst out due to severe pain, and a scream came out from the depths of her throat, her bones were broken, she opened her lips in disbelief and looked at the man in front of her who was still smiling gently and elegantly, tears were like beads of broken threads, rolling down.

Fu Chip let go of her, and the woman froze on the ground, her face was as white as paper, her body twitched violently, and there was no sound in her mouth.

Mantian's heart froze, and he frowned unconsciously and said: General, you, why are you doing this? She's your woman after all. ”

Fu Chip turned his head, in the dark light, his eyes were dark and deep, and he couldn't see his emotions at all, or he didn't have emotions at all. "My woman?" He chuckled and snorted, turned his eyes to look at the woman on the ground who had not shed a drop of blood but was in extreme pain, and said, "Ben will also be very strange, how did I touch you when I was unconscious?" It's better to be like this" "He stretched out his hand and pointed at the two of them casually, you guys, go and verify for Ben General, has this woman ever touched it?" Take it inside. ”

Kaoru's body trembled violently, and she was speechless with fright, and her eyes were full of despair. She scrambled to her feet and slammed her head into the stone table. But before he could reach the edge of the stone table, he had been dragged to the side of the room by the arms of the two little servants.

The terrible screams pierced the night sky, shook people's hearts, and rendered the desolate garden extremely treacherous.

Looking at the titular husband in shock, she couldn't help but clench her hands when she saw the usual gentle expression on his handsome face, as if nothing had happened. On this hot day, she only felt a cold air sweeping over her body, from head to toe, and then suddenly plunged into her heart, and she couldn't help but shiver.

At tea time, the door of the house was opened, and someone was holding a white cloth towel with a few drops of blood on it.

Fu Chip glanced at her lightly, then turned his head to look at her, as if to say that he had nothing to do with the woman. Mantian pursed his lips, his expression looked very indifferent and unwavering, but his heart was like turbulent waves, and it was difficult to calm down for a moment. Everything Fu Chip did today, in the eyes of others, seemed to be for her. He could have avoided her and done all of this, but he was in front of her, why? Is it just to prove his innocence with this woman? Don't say she doesn't care, even if she cares, what can those few drops of blood prove? Or was he taking the opportunity to remind her of something? Why wasn't it another day, but on the day when I learned that Zongzheng had no worries about returning to the capital?

Fu Chip waved his hand at them, turned around and smiled gently, and said, "Madam, it's getting late, let's go back to the room to rest." Xiang Ying, tonight will be in the Tranquility Garden, you don't have to follow. ”

The body shook violently, and it instantly stiffened as iron.

There are thousands of red faces and white pains
