Chapter 225: The Truth Revealed
The world is really impermanent, and no book can be written without coincidence. The moment Wang Xu turned his head, Diao Chan on the carriage was also infected by Cui'er's crying, thinking of his tragic fate, and involuntarily opened the window a little gap......
In an instant, the four eyes met, and both of them were stunned! Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and the shouts of the guards to open the way, the chatter of the people around them, the grunting of the carriage, and the hoofs of the horses as they advanced, all disappeared from the ears of the two, and in an instant, each other had only one other in their eyes.
After a while, Diao Chan was the first to resist Wang Xu's compelling gaze, his eyes closed, he retracted suddenly, and the curtain was also lowered.
But Wang Xu was still looking at the carriage in a daze, and his heart was in shock, because he had a preconceived idea and suspected that the female official was Diao Chan, so he felt very similar at this moment. Although from the face of this female official, it seems that there has been a great change from the young Diao Chan, but it is not impossible for the female college to change eighteen. And the most important thing is the unique eyes, the eyes are the only thing that cannot be changed, that is the window to the soul. And the moment of looking at each other just now has been deeply reflected in my mind, and that feeling is too unique.
Thinking of this, Wang Xu couldn't help but look back and carefully recalled the little Diao Chan back then.
After a while, he couldn't stop chattering: "That's right, that's right, absolutely right!" Those eyes are too similar, really too similar, the kind of purity and kindness from the heart, the unique charm and softness, it should be Diao Chan. ”
But as he gradually regained his composure and thought of the practical problem, Wang Xu was puzzled again, and secretly said in his heart: Since he knows my identity, why doesn't she recognize me? Even if you don't want people to know, there are many opportunities just now, and you can pass on the information quietly. Moreover, Diao Chan should be in charge of Diao Chan Crown, and Diao Chan Crown can only be worn by General Wei, Jiuqing and above, and King Feng, etc., she is obviously not qualified enough, how could she be her to send court clothes?
Thinking of this, Wang Xu couldn't help but fall into the contradiction again, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't help but shake his head. Dark Dao: Forget it, no matter what, I'll definitely find a chance to ask later.
Just when Wang Xu was uncertain and secretly speculated, the long line was moving rapidly. Before I knew it, I had come to the gate of the splendid imperial city.
"General, this is the Nangong Ping City Gate! Below is Nantun Sima, who is responsible for guarding this gate, and he is on duty at the moment, so he can't send the general anymore. The general can wait here for a while, and someone will come out to welcome the general into the palace later! The leading guard suddenly turned around and said.
"Huh?" Wang Xu, who was interrupted, had already reacted, and immediately nodded: "Okay!" ”
Seeing that Nantun Sima was far away, Wang Xu was not in the mood to appreciate the magnificence of the siege, and immediately turned around and stopped in front of the convoy that was still marching. "Please wait, I have something to ask next."
When he stopped him like this, the slave who was driving the car immediately stopped the car and didn't dare to make a sound, but after waiting for a long time, there was really no sound inside.
"Sister! Why don't you speak? Cui'er saw that Diao Chan was silent for a long time, and couldn't help lowering her voice and asked.
Diao Chan's heart at this moment is already "poof!" Poof! "I kept jumping, and when I heard Cui'er's words, I was also a little overwhelmed." I don't know what to say! A little scared ......."
"What are you afraid of! I'll go. Cui'er saw Diao Chan's appearance, and before she could react, she suddenly opened the curtain of the car window. General Wang, I don't know what's going on? ”
Seeing that it was this palace maid who came out, Wang Xu was slightly stunned, but his reaction was not slow, and as soon as his head turned, he quickly smiled and said, "I want to ask the two of you about one person." ”
"Oh? Inquiring about someone? Cui'er was stunned by Wang Xu's words, looked back at Diao Chan in the car, and then said, "I don't know who the general wants to inquire?" If you know, tell us. It's just that the slaves and maids have been in the palace for many years, so they don't know much about things outside the palace, and I'm afraid they will disappoint the general. ”
"Am I such a fool in your eyes? How could you ask the two about things outside the palace? The person you want to inquire about is someone from the palace, and he should have contact with you. Wang Xu looked at Cui'er with a smile and said.
"Oh?" Cui'er couldn't help but glance at Wang Xu curiously, and then looked back at Diao Chan, who was also curious, and said strangely: "I don't know who the general wants to inquire?" ”
"She's a very kind and pure girl, and she should be called Diao Chan now!" Wang Xu said word by word.
"Ahh Cui'er suddenly screamed, but immediately reacted, hurriedly covered her mouth, and retracted violently into the car.
And the Diao Chan in the car also trembled at the moment when Wang Xu's voice came out, and some tears instantly welled up in his eyes, and he had the urge to rush out to recognize each other immediately.
I don't know why, at the moment when I was about to open my mouth, I suddenly lost my courage. Looking at Cui'er, who was staring at her, thinking about her current situation, she couldn't help but lower her head sadly.
What about acquaintances? In vain, it is better to leave quietly like this, Chang'er is already dead. Now all that's left is a female official in the palace, a servant girl who can't leave the palace! Let Chang'er stay in Brother Xu's heart forever, maybe it will be better......
Thinking of this, Diao Chan showed a faint smile on his face, it was beautiful! It's beautiful! Because there is a kind of silent and selfless love!
He slowly wiped away the tears on his face, and ignored Cui'er's reddened smile with excitement. When Diao Chan slowly pulled the curtain of the car, he had already changed his face to a calm face.
Wang Xu, who was already waiting a little impatiently outside, saw the female official show her head, and a trace of excitement surged in her heart. was about to speak, but the other party had already lightly opened his lips and said first: "General? I don't know who this girl named Diao Chan is the general? Is it worth the general's concern? ”
As soon as these words came out, it was like a basin of cold water spurting out, making Wang Xu cold from head to toe. Looking at the girl in front of me who had the same eyes as the little Diao Chan, I suddenly felt that I couldn't say anything.
Impossible, if she wasn't a little sable, how could there be such a similar person in the world? And it's still so god-like? Those eyes can't fool people. But if she was, with her kind and fiery heart, how could she be so indifferent to herself? It's even less likely to be so deceiving.
After struggling with contradictions in his head for a long time, Wang Xu finally refused to believe that the person in front of him was not Diao Chan, and immediately looked straight into her eyes, and said word by word: "She is my most beloved sister and my dearest." ”
As soon as these words came out, Diao Chan's hand in the car shook almost immediately, but his face showed a sympathetic look, and he sighed: "The general may be disappointed, Diao Chan contracted a serious illness not long after entering the palace, and later the treatment was ineffective and he has died." I hope that the general's day is mourning! ”
"What?" Wang Xu exclaimed in surprise at first, but then he couldn't believe it. But looking at the appearance of the female officer in front of him, it didn't seem to be a fake, and she couldn't tell the situation for a while, so she was stunned.
Impossible, it is impossible for Diao Chan to die? There is no death at all in history! Could it be that the arrival of himself and others changed history, and the result was ......
Wang Xu didn't dare to think about it anymore, he really couldn't believe the statement that Diao Chan was dead, and shook his head violently: "You lie, it's impossible, she can't die!" ”
Seeing him like this, Diao Chan's heart was like a knife, but the tempering in the palace over the years has taught him how to keep his heart in mind. So there was still no change on his face, and he said calmly: "The slave can understand the general's mood very well, but this is a fact, I hope the general will not be too sad and take care of his body." ”
After saying that, Diao Chan really couldn't bear the love in his patience, and was worried about revealing his flaws, so he immediately turned his head to the servant who was driving the car and said, "Let's go back to the palace!" I shouldn't wait too long outside the main palace gate! ”
The servant kept his head down and didn't say anything, and when he heard this, he was still silent, and directly waved his horsewhip, "Drive!" As soon as he heard the ground, he drove into the palace.
But Wang Xu was dumbfounded at the moment, although he still had some doubts, he gradually believed those words. After all, in his opinion, a simple Diao Chan would not lie to him, and there was no reason to lie to him like this. But if this person is not Diao Chan, then she has no reason to lie to herself.
I don't know why, Wang Xu suddenly felt panicked in his heart at this time, and an irrepressible anger rose. Although the days of the little Diao Chan with him are very short, in Wang Xu's heart, he has been treated as a family member, and he pities it doubly.
Especially in his heart, Diao Chan's murder is more directly related to him. If it weren't for the scruples that Wang Yun would drag down, if it wasn't for the disruption of history, if it wasn't for the single-minded belief that Diao Chan would be as dangerous as in history, then the little Diao Chan didn't have to die at all!
But now, not only did he fail to save the simple and kind little girl, but he killed the other party, how could Wang Xu not blame himself in his heart. Thinking of the simple and lovely appearance of the little sable cicada back then, thinking of her attachment to herself, and thinking of the short few days, she finally couldn't stop shouting: "Chang'er! Brother I'm sorry for you! ”
For the first time in his life, Wang Xu experienced the pain of losing an important person, perhaps because of the perennial battle, so he also accumulated some anger in his heart. At this moment, when they encountered a breakthrough, they all broke out. Unconsciously, a tear slowly slipped from the corner of his eye, this was the third time Wang Xu shed tears in his life......
And hearing Wang Xu's sad and indignant roar, Diao Chan in the carriage also suddenly cried, after all, she was just a girl less than sixteen years old!
Cui'er next to her didn't know what to say, and vaguely understood why Diao Chan was like this, and she was sobbing silently. Because in their opinion, this is indeed the best for Wang Xu, and long pain is better than short pain......
However, the guards of the Dian Wei Peace City Gate were all startled by Wang Xu's roar, and even the ordinary people who were a little farther away also looked sideways.
Dian Wei has been with Wang Xu for more than two years, and he knows him better, so he immediately had no intention of asking about the delicacy of those guards in the palace. quickly rode his horse and galloped over, and said anxiously: "Lord, what's wrong?" ”
"My sister is dead?" Wang Xu clenched his teeth and said.
"What?" Dian Wei's eyes widened in horror, especially his eyes were already big, and it was even more terrifying to open them like this.
But after a while, he shook his head suspiciously: "Isn't the lord's sister in Shanyang?" How did the lord know? ”
"No, it's another one, she is a palace maid in the palace, called Diao Chan!" Wang Xu shook his head and sighed.
"Diao?" Dian Wei was stunned for a moment, but then scratched his head and said, "Lord, it's not right!" Isn't that female official called Diao Chan? ”
"What?" Wang Xu's eyes widened in horror instantly, and he hurriedly said, "How do you know?" ”
"It's true, the lord was talking here just now, and I was idle, so I chatted with those guards? They said that the stunning woman was called Diao Chan! ”
