Chapter 63

Back at the General's Mansion, Fu Chip had been waiting for her in Qingjing Garden for an hour. When she entered the garden, she saw Fu Chip sitting alone in the dining room from a distance, he was looking at the table full of food in front of him, there was no one around, and the whole Qingjing Garden was a little unusually quiet.

Man Yao wanted to say hello to him first and then go to the shower and change clothes, but he looked at the two things in his hand again, and remembered Fu Chip's reaction before because of this fan, so he decided to go to the bedroom first to put down the things, so as not to make him unhappy again. She turned a corner and went to the bed, but only walked a short way, and suddenly heard a loud "bang", and then the sound of crackling dishes and bowls, which shocked her mind, and she was shocked, and hurriedly turned back and returned to the small fork in the road. I was running into Fu Chip who strode out.

At this time, Fu Chip's heart was full of loss and sorrow. In front of the sumptuous meal, he had a little expectation, a little worry, a little sour, a little anxious, his mood was fluctuating, and his heart was full of mixed tastes.

For once, he felt that time was so long, and every moment was extremely tormenting. The composure that he had always been proud of had become vulnerable at this moment. He had never tried to suffer from such a mood of gain and loss, but he felt that his heart grew cold inch by inch with the coldness of the meal, and the great warmth and joy brought to him by the worried look on her face when she caught up with him and asked him if he was hurt during the day all cooled down in this anxious wait. She said she didn't want to be trapped in the garden, so he immediately withdrew the guards, thinking that he should be more careful. Although it was harder, he was willing, as long as she liked it. She wanted to see Zongzheng worry-free, he asked her to go, and did not send anyone to follow and investigate, for fear that she would be unhappy. Although she went to meet him, it was his enemy and one of her men.

He didn't even have a rest because of his injuries, so he hurriedly finished his official duties, and came here early to wait for her to return, believing that she was a measured person, and that she knew what to do and what not to do in her own capacity.

But why? She had been gone for most of the day, and it was dark, and she had not returned. She forgot, he said to tell her to come back early, he said he was going to wait for her to have dinner.

It's not so much anger or loss as it ...... Sad! This is the first time he has experienced, what is sadness!

Since he was a child, he has been good at forbearance, even on the wedding day, she deducted such a big green hat for him, making him the biggest joke in the entire capital, he can still smile gently in the face of everyone's vague and mocking eyes. Does he really not care? That's impossible, even if you don't love, that's the most intolerable thing for a man, not to mention, at that time, she has quietly entered his heart.

He couldn't help himself thinking, what kind of words would she say when she and Zong Zheng were worry-free? What would they do together? When they are together, will their hearts that have hurt and estrangement gradually come back together? From now on, it will never be possible to leave the slightest crack to accept him!

Did he think he was crazy? It's been to this point for a woman!

He finally couldn't control it anymore, overturned the cold rice that had stinged his eyes, and ran away. But he didn't expect that she would stand in front of him at this moment.

Man Xiao frowned and looked at the man who suddenly stopped a few steps in front of him, his strong aura was full of exudation, and his usual gentleness was exactly like two people. She didn't understand, he was such a deep person that people could never see through, killing people without emotion, and she even doubted that even if he faced his biggest enemy, he could smile and say loyalty! But why did he get angry today? Was it just because she came back a little late? That's not going to be so angry that you flip the table, right? It really doesn't look like him! She walked up to him, looked at the room full of cups and plates, and didn't ask him why he was angry, but frowned and asked, "You lifted the table, what are we going to eat at night?" ”

What a simple and ordinary sentence, but with this sentence, the depressed qi that blocked Fu Chip's heart suddenly dissipated. Fu Chip's lips squirmed a few times, and he asked like an idiot, "You...... Haven't you eaten yet? ”

Manyao raised his long, thick eyelashes, looked at him strangely, and said as a matter of course: "Of course not." Didn't you say you'd wait for me to come back and have dinner together? She went into the house as she spoke, and was in a bad mood at noon, and had not eaten anything, and in the afternoon she was sad, and now she looked at the sumptuous meal that had been turned over on the floor, and she felt hungry. She sighed with some depression and regret: "It's a pity, it's all the things I like to eat." ”

Fu Chip stepped forward with an arrow, and a pair of strong arms hugged her from his side, hugging her so tightly that she gasped.

He seemed to be about to use up all the strength of his body, and even though he would tear the wound, he still wouldn't let go of her, and he just wanted to use this deep pain to prove his love, to prove that the meaning of his life is more than hatred. In a person's life, there should always be something left, whether it is love or hate, there must always be a little bit that belongs only to oneself, so that it is worthy of going through the next life.

Manyao's chest was strangled by him, and he wanted to raise his hand to pull his arm away, Fu Chip looked down and saw the thing in her hand, his eyes froze, paused, sighed, but he didn't say anything, only tightened his arm a little more angrily. rubbing his chin against her sideburns, he whispered in her ear, "It doesn't matter, let's go to a restaurant outside to eat." Order everything you like to eat, and if one table doesn't fit, we'll ask for more. It's like a spoiled child's tone, or a person who wants to pour all his love into another person through one thing, which makes people's hearts unconsciously warm. Manyao turned his head to look at him, either complaining or reproaching, and said: "Then you have to let go of me first, I want to strangle me to death with you, and no matter how many dishes I order, I can't eat it." ”

Fu Chip was stunned for a moment, quickly let go of his arm, took her hand, and laughed. seemed to be in a good mood, and as soon as he lowered his head, he dropped a light kiss between her eyebrows, and smiled: "Yes, madam!" ”

She was stunned, but it was the first time she saw Fu Chip showing such a relaxed and very satisfied smile, as if she had said a word, and the whole world had become his. It's just going out for a meal, as far as it's concerned?

At that meal, Fu Chip ordered almost all the dishes in a restaurant in the capital, and set up nine tables, she couldn't stop it, Fu Chip couldn't help but smile: "It's rare that I want to do one thing according to my own temperament, you can fulfill me." Just like I spoil you, or maybe you spoil me once in a while. ”

It's not that she is not moved, she is also a person of flesh and blood and feelings! She couldn't ignore such a Fu chip.

It was already late when she returned to the house, and when she was about to go to bed, the clothes on her back were stained with blood again, so she ordered someone to bring the wound medicine and cloth, and prepared to change the dressing and bandage for him. She pressed Fu Chip on the edge of the bed and sat down, reached out to untie his clothes, Fu Chip's body shook, and his eyes instantly became hot and intense.

She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that this action was easy to make people want to be crooked, and her face suddenly burned a little, she turned her head and coughed unnaturally twice, before she said lightly: "Don't think about it, I'm going to change the medicine for you." “

Fu Chip's expression changed, he stiffened slightly, a little embarrassed, and then pulled away his clothes, his eyes dimmed a little, and said, "No, this matter" "Just let Chang Jian do it." ”

Manyao tore his hand away and glanced at him with disgust, "It's just a change of medicine, it's not the same who does it." He didn't care whether he agreed or not, so he ripped off his shirt.

Fu Chip looked at her in a daze, her flashing reproachful expression, he was so excited that he forgot the pain on his body. So, no longer stop, let her move.

Manyao uncovered the white cloth that had been soaked in blood around his wound, and when the wound was presented to her, she trembled uncontrollably.

It was the center of the vertebrae, and a deep bloody hole that had been pierced "exposed the white bones." There are barbs scraped on the edge of the bloody mouth, bringing out the rolled flesh, which is shocking!

Barb piercing?! She had heard of such a cruel punishment, but she never thought she would see it with her own eyes, and it was on her husband!

He came to sit with her with such a wound during the day, and was deliberately snubbed by her, looked at her with a gentle smile, thoughtfully agreed to her request, and said to her, just a little injury!

He took such a wound at night and made people prepare a table full of dishes and wait for her to come back, and he was so angry that he overturned the table because she returned late, but when he saw her, he didn't say a word of blame, and happily took her out to eat, and tossed all night!

She didn't know it at all, she really didn't think his injury was serious, because she couldn't see any discomfort or pain on his face at all, she only saw the rare happiness in his eyes, so real and intense.

Her eyes suddenly turned red, if at this time, she still pretended not to know his feelings, she felt that she was very bad, but ...... So what? It's better not to know.

Seeing that she had stood still for a long time, Fu Chip turned around and asked with a gentle smile: "Is the wound ugly and scaring you?" ”

Man Yao pursed her lips tightly, pulled his head back, and with a trembling hand, she picked up a damp cloth stained with water on the side and gently wiped the blood on the edge of the wound, she clearly felt Fu Chip's body tremble, and then the skin and flesh were tense. She asked softly, "It hurts, doesn't it?" "Actually, do you still need to ask such idiotic questions? You don't have to think about it to know that it must be so painful that you want to die immediately.

However, Fu Chip just replied casually: "Get used to it." ”

Thirteen years, once a year, piercing the bones of heartache, in order to make him remember the hate. He remembered hate, almost forgetting that he was also a person, until she appeared, he realized that he also has seven emotions and six desires, and he also has love and hate!

Only then did the spine appear, one by one, from top to bottom, from shallow to deep. She silently counted, thirteen!

He has endured such pain thirteen times! Why? He is such a person who is good at calculating everything, he is a patriotic general with heavy military power and tilting towards the government and the opposition, what is the reason why he is willing to suffer such a bone-piercing pain as many as thirteen times?

Manxiao can't explain the shock in his heart at this time, how to say a kind of pain that pierces the bones so that a person can say the words "used to" so casually? She realized that she didn't know anything about her husband, her life experience, his growth, and his heart, she didn't know anything, she could only see the aura of his appearance, only his gentle appearance, and only recognize the calculation of asking him to conspire. As a wife, she was undoubtedly a failure!

She carefully helped him change the medicine bag before collapsing the wound, and she didn't call Ling'er, so she simply cleaned up her things.

Fu Chip watched her do it herself, and she didn't call anyone. He felt like he was watching her quietly, like a wife busy for her husband, and his heart was full of happiness and satisfaction, even though she never really thought of herself as her husband. The happiness of this moment made him feel a trace of fear in his heart for no reason, he was afraid that this happiness would disappear, and he was afraid that the person who brought him happiness would eventually leave him! The enemy he wants to deal with is the man in her heart, even if he no longer uses her, when the two choose one or the other, how will she choose?

Fu Chip stood up and quietly walked behind her, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist, that careful movement revealed the uneasiness and fear in his heart, and his voice was extremely soft, "Rong Le, you,...... Don't leave me in the future, stay with me forever, okay? ”

Stunned, what's wrong with him today? How strange is that! She turned her head, half-frowned, and said, "What are you doing with this?" My identity...... Where else do you think I can go? ”

Yes, she is a princess of Heqin, and her identity is destined for her path. Fu Chip's eyes flashed, he turned her around, stroked her shoulders, his eyes lingered on her face, his voice was extremely gentle, and he said with anticipation: "Rong Le, I hope that one day, you will stay by my side not because you are powerless to change your identity as a princess, but because you want to stay by my side, because I am a man you think is worth entrusting for life, I want you to be willing!" I allow you to have someone else in your heart, but can you ...... Give me even a little bit of space, at least give me a chance to capture your whole heart? "You may never be able to capture another person's territory, but at least there must be a chance. If you have the opportunity, you can have hope in life.

Manyao's heart trembled, was he asking her for sincerity? She suddenly woke up, and he could ask her to do the duty of a wife, or he could warn her that she must obey the duties of a wife, but like, "What he wants is her heart, and her affection in return!"

Man Yao raised her eyes to meet his hopeful gaze, but she gradually became colder, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and asked Liangliang: "That...... Can the general...... Take advantage of me a little less? ”

Fu Chip's eyes ached, and he knew that what she cared about the most must be this. She finally said it, and it was better than keeping it in her heart and becoming a thorn that grew longer.

He tightened his fingers, clasped her thin fragrant shoulders, his eyes and voice were full of struggle and pain, and he said, "Rong Le, do you know? Hurt you" "I'm even more sad than you. ”

"But you're still hurting me. Even if you are sad, you still don't stop using me, you are a cruel person to yourself! Looking straight at his deep and painful eyes, the smile on the corner of her mouth was slightly cold, "That night, your carriage happened to pass by Tianshui Lake to save me, and at that time, you already knew my true identity, right?" ”

Fu Chip was shocked, it turned out that she knew! Yes, she's so smart, how could she not know?

Manyao said: "I don't know what kind of agreement you have with my imperial brother, but I know that the woman who has a similar body and voice to me entered the palace to choose a husband on my behalf, forcing me to have no choice but to marry you, and this matter has nothing to do with you, right?" "The 'coincidence' between Qingliang Lake and the prince of Dustwind, you already knew that there was an ambush there, and you even guessed the identity of the person who was ambushed there, but you need to use me to prove it further, right? ”

"The palace flower viewing banquet, you deliberately disturbed my mood, and secretly made me accidentally knock over the teacup and the bad guy danced, and was hated by Miss Sun...... She kept talking, telling all her guesses and questions for so long, in fact, she didn't need an answer at all, because the answer was already in her heart. She looked at him and continued, "I don't know what you are trying so hard to prevent the Zongzheng Worry-free Concubine Selection and the cooperation between the Lintian Kingdom and the Dusty Wind Kingdom? But your use of me is real, do you admit it? You said that if I was hurt, you would die... I believe it! But Fu Chip, even if you have affection for me, how can you do this,..., while using me, and at the same time asking me for sincerity? She spoke word by word, with great clarity, ruthlessly exposing the unspeakable relationship and facts between them. Regardless of it, who feels more sad than anyone else when this speech comes out?

Fu Chip's face turned pale with every word she said, until it was as gray as death.

His hands were frozen on her shoulders, his fingers like iron, and he couldn't move for half a minute. He was speechless when confronted by her voice. The heart that had just been full of hope and longed for a bright future, at this moment, fell into the boundless dark ice cave again. He couldn't deny that what she said was all the truth.

After saying so long in a row, her chest was a little choked, and she turned her head to the side and gasped for air. If it weren't for today's realization that Fu Chip had deep feelings for her, she might still not have said that she would raise her hand and knock off the stiff fingers he was holding on to her shoulder, take three steps back, and then smile sadly at him: "I'm sorry! I am a human being, and being used as a pawn by others is involuntarily, not what I want, and I am powerless to change the use of others against me, but I must control myself not to love those who hurt and use me, this is my ...... The minimum requirement for one's own life. If I...", can't control my heart, then I'd rather crush it. "It's like the way you treat your relationship with Zongzheng Wuwu. In the face of love, she is stubborn and determined. The person who loves each other must at least be loyal, that is her only obsession, and it cannot be used by spies.

Fu Chip was stunned for a long time, he suddenly felt very powerless, opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. She finally made him understand one thing, that is, why did she choose to marry him even though she was in love with that person? Because she knew that she wouldn't fall in love with him! It was such a realization that made his heart despair.

Man Yao kept looking at Fu Chip's eyes, the eyes that had always been gentle as if they were wearing a mask and couldn't see the real emotions, and the overflowing pain and helplessness at the moment released all the emotions he had suppressed for more than ten years.

Fu Chip smiled sadly, a man who had been in the dark for a long time, saw a glimmer of light, and he mistakenly thought that the light was for him. But it turned out that it was just to drive him deeper into the darkness.

She turned a blind eye to his deep and painful emotions, lowered her eyes lightly, and said lightly, "Go to sleep." Don't mention these words again. "Is she ruthless? Maybe! She just felt that if she couldn't be sure that she could give him a response, she didn't have the right to ask him to give up the heart of exploitation for her. Instead of giving him hope, making him struggle between love and exploitation, and then waiting endlessly, hovering between hope and disappointment, it is better to let him completely die and return to his original life track.

That night, they were relatively silent, their hearts were in turmoil, and they couldn't sleep all night.

On the second day, Fu Chip left early, had breakfast, and his mind settled down, and there were many things to think about calmly. Ning Qianyi is about to leave, and the assassination must be concluded in the next few days. She sat quietly in the room, pondering carefully, yesterday's trip was fruitless, after all, she was too proud and too persistent, and now, where is she going to get the seven unique grasses? She casually picked up the folding fan next to the pillow, and saw the brocade box she had used to put the strange leaf, and her heart moved, she reached out and opened it, and now the leaf with full life in the box has become much more dry. She held it in her hand, thinking why Zongzheng Wuwu wanted to give her this? It's always a little strange that this small leaf is a gift from Yun Guifei to her, and this leaf is placed next to Yun Guifei's posthumous retirement, what is the mystery?

Man Yao frowned, and kept staring at the leaf, only to see that the leaf seemed to be thinned by the loss of water, and the corners of the seven lobes looked more distinct...... She suddenly had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and her eyes suddenly widened, could it be ......", she stood up and called Xiang Ying, "Go and invite the Nine Emperor Princes to come over!" ”

As soon as he entered the garden, he shouted, "Liyue, I'm here, come out and greet you!" ”

Man Yao shook his head helplessly, he, it's always like this, as soon as he appears, he can't let everyone around him know. There are usually two reasons why a person is so desperate to seek his own sense of existence, either he is used to being by everyone and habitually attracting everyone's attention; Either or he was too underappreciated, so he longed for more people to recognize his existence. The Nine Emperor Princes, who seems to be a happy and cheerful person without a heart and lungs, which kind of person will he belong to? She walked out, welcomed him into the house, and withdrew all the men.

The Nine Emperor Princes smiled, "Liyue is in such a hurry to find me, what's the good thing?" I want to think about it......... Have you found some treasure that you want me to appreciate? ”

Man Yao picked up the brocade box next to him and handed it to him, the Nine Emperor Princes opened the brocade box, stood up at once, rubbed to her side, pointed to the items in the brocade box, and smiled proudly: "Na Na Na Na,... Look at what I'm talking about, as long as it's Liyue, you're open. "Brother Qi, he promises to hurt love, and will give you this 'Seven Absolute Grasses'. Ha, I still know Brother Qi best! ”

After a shock, she really expected it, this is really the Seven Absolute Grasses! She thought it was a grass, but she didn't think it was a leaf. Zongzheng Wuwu actually used such a simple method to respect her pride and solve the problem that she was difficult to speak. Not a handout, not a transaction, but a greeting gift in his mother's name as her return to Yun Guifei! There is no need for her to admit it. Did he know her too well?

Manyao's throat was astringent, and he asked, "On that day, you said that the 'Seven Absolute Grasses' meant something unusual to him, what did you mean?" ”

The Nine Emperors walked back, sat down and said, "Oh, this, that's it! This 'Seven Absolute Grasses' was plotted to poison the Seventh Brother when he was a child, and Concubine Yun Guifei tried his best to ask for him from somewhere, and he didn't know what happened to him, I heard that the father was angry with Concubine Yun once for that incident, and he didn't go to see her for three months. ”

I see! This meaning is indeed extraordinary, it represents Yun Guifei's love for him. Such a rare and precious treasure, I don't know how Yun Guifei got it, so that Emperor Lin was so angry?

Manyao asked again: "Since it is to understand his poison, why has it survived to this day?" ”

The Nine Emperor Princes picked up the Seven Absolute Leaves, compared the thickness of the leaves more than twice with his fingers, and said, "I heard that this leaf used to be so thick, and squeezing half of the liquid juice into medicine can cure a hundred poisons." The remaining half was not easy to preserve, and at that time, Concubine Yun Guifei asked people to put it in the underground ice storage of the palace, and was later put into the coffin by the seventh brother. You see, leaving the ice jade cold room, this is almost over, whoever you want to use it, put it into medicine as soon as possible, don't disappoint Seventh Brother's intentions. ”

Man Yao nodded, took the Seven Absolute Grass from his hand, and thought that he should quickly ask Xiang Ying to send it to Xiao Ke.

The Nine Emperor Princes leaned over and suddenly half-jokingly said, "Liyue, I'm so jealous of you!" ”

Man Yao smiled casually: "What are you jealous of me? ”

The Nine Emperor Princes said: "I'm jealous of the Seventh Brother's kindness to you!" If the seventh brother treats me with fifty percent of his kindness to you, let me do it without marrying a daughter-in-law in my life. ”

What kind of logic is this? Man Yao chuckled lightly, and carefully put the Seven Absolute Grass into the brocade box, just as he was joking, and didn't take it to heart.

The Nine Emperors smiled and said, "If the Seventh Brother treats his father with the same tolerance as you are thirty percent, this country will already be his, and the father will not be worried and sleepless for more than ten years, and he will fall into a heartache."

Man Yao was still smiling, but the smile gradually stiffened a little, and he didn't make a sound. She closed the lid of the brocade box and turned around to put it in the jugger.

The Nine Emperor Princes continued: "If the Seventh Brother can treat Zhaoyun with his feelings for you, I estimate that even if you throw Zhaoyun in front of a big fire pit and let her die now, she will not hesitate to laugh and jump down!" ”

Her heart twitched, and she paused the movement of her hand and couldn't laugh. He was accusing her of having the most precious feelings for them, but he didn't know how to cherish them. She turned around and asked in a cool voice, "Zongzheng is worry-free", and he ...... to me, "Is it really as good as you say?" ”

The Nine Emperor Princes confirmed her question with his eyes and movements very seriously, nodded to her seriously, and answered her question very seriously and affirmatively: "Yes, absolutely!" Anyone else knows it but you. In fact, you also know that you just don't want to think about it, you don't want to believe it. Liyue, you care about too many things, feelings are irrational, if a person's sincerity is hurt and wants to take it back, is that still called sincerity? If that's the case, my seventh brother won't live so painfully for more than a year! You're already married anyway, so what's the point of him doing this? You say, don't you? Cough...... What I know, what else do you know? In fact, if you think about it carefully, how a person's relationship begins, is it really that important? ”

The Nine Emperor Princes, who have never been in the land of fireworks and only talked about the wind and snow and the moon and avoided marriage, could say such a thing, which made her a little surprised and impressed.

Isn't it important that a person's feelings are based on exploitation?

Seeing that her face was gradually turning pale, the Nine Emperors couldn't bear it, raised their eyebrows, and jumped over to her, with a helpless expression of hatred that iron could not become steel, but they smiled and said: "You, you!" If it weren't for you, I'd go find a big brick and knock you on the head and wake you up. But you are you, such a beautiful head is broken, I will feel distressed. The most important thing is that if Brother Qi finds out, he will definitely kill me! Forget it, weigh the pros and cons, huh...... I'll use my hands anyway. He said and quickly struck her on the forehead with his fingers, but he was really willing to do it! As if to vent his anger.

Man Yao stroked her forehead, Fang Cai's heavy mood suddenly became much easier, those problems were still there, but the Nine Emperors' way of venting her emotions really made her cry and laugh. He is so direct, likes to laugh with her, and cares about her, but because of the worry-free affairs of Zongzheng, he directly knocks her on the head and expresses his dissatisfaction with her.

After knocking her, the Nine Emperor Princes bent down slightly to approach her, and when he saw her frowning, he laughed, as if he was happy with relief, and did not forget to instruct: "Don't tell Brother Qi, he will knock me to death!" Please, please, I'm leaving, come back to me if you have something, and promise to be there with me. Before he finished speaking, the man was already outside the park.

Manyao was still stunned in the room, and his thoughts were like a tide.

She knows it all, does it work? Can it still be useful?

The morning sun was shining brightly, and she looked at the brocade box in her hand that she had not had time to put away, and the faces of Zongzheng Wuwu and Fu Chip flashed in her mind.

After standing like that for half an hour, Xiang Ying entered the room before she woke up. She handed the Seven Absolute Grass to Xiang Ying and asked him to quietly give it to Xiao Ke. Then he gave him the Moyu folding fan, and told him to do a few things.

There are thousands of red faces and white pains
