Chapter 53: The Beast's Face (1)
I can't remember exactly how I saw the red pills, but when I woke up, it was already dusk the next day. I stood in the plum garden in a close-fitting single coat, looking at the little frost on the knotted branches, and I couldn't figure it out, why did he trick me into Baili Mansion? Why do you want to give me to others as a concubine?
Time has made me a dream. It tells me that if I can treat someone with true affection, then that person will love me seriously. I thought that as the years went by, I was old and white, as long as I stayed where I was, I would always stand behind me when I looked back. After returning from Moya Mountain, in his warm embrace, in his doting eyes, I almost thought that this dream had come true. But now it's finally broken, shattered in the mouth of an unrelated person, shattered all over the ground.
A clump of bamboo in the corner of the wall was dyed a dark red gold by the setting sun, and time slowly drifted away in my panic and hesitation.
The fat girl gently leaned up and put on my robe: "Noble girl, what's wrong with you?" Yesterday, I saw the red medicine lady and started to be wrong, and today I just woke up and ran outside to blow the wind. What Ah Zhi said, don't pay attention to her, what a mountain ghost, a monster, she is jealous of you. ”
I smiled bitterly and shook the fat girl's hand on my arm: "How could I deal with someone like that." Go ahead, help me go back to the house and see, is Si'er already back? Is there a letter from the general? ”
The fat girl gave me a worried look, answered lightly and left.
I still stood in the garden, until the mournful sky was immersed in the darkness of the night.
I can't remember who I met yesterday and how I went to the banquet, but the only thing I remember is that someone sent an extra pot of boiled rice to bring back. Yes, when you are sad, what could be more heartwarming than this fiery wine......
I sent two little girls to sit alone under the plum tree and drank wine, and a sip of the liquor flowed down my throat to my heart, turning the ice in my heart into tears. At first, he just gritted his teeth and sobbed, but at last when he got drunk, he fell on the plum tree and cried loudly, as if he was going to break all the sorrow in his belly.
"How long are you going to cry?" When I heard this voice, I was already drunk and dizzy, crying prostration, and I turned my head tremblingly, and dimly saw only a bright moon in the sky and a tall figure in front of me.
I looked up at him, tearful but smiling sweetly: "I knew that you wouldn't want me." I stood up and threw myself into his arms, my hands tightly wrapped around his waist, afraid that he would leave me as soon as I let go, "Take me away, don't leave me here......"
"Have you always been so generous to those who want to kill you?"
There was a playful voice overhead, and I didn't really hear it: "What did you say?" ”
"Do you see who I am?"
"Of course I know......" I reached out and touched his face, the tentacles were cold and piercing, and when I looked up, I saw a grinning beast face reflected in the moonlight.
I let go of him with a scream, turned and fled. He seemed to have known what I was thinking, and with a flick of his left hand, he picked me up and held me tightly in his arms.
"You let go of me! You let go! "He was so tall that I was held in his arms and my toes could only touch the ground slightly, and even though I used all my strength, I could not get out of his confinement.
"If you shout like this again, be careful to attract the guards of Baili Mansion. If Dr. Baili knew that his daughter's concubine had a private meeting with a man in the garden before she got married, I don't know how he would feel? ”
Yes, now even the people of the Jin Kingdom already know that I am the concubine of Baili's Red Medicine. I'm the only one who foolishly thinks I'm here just to escape the war. When my heart was bitter, I stopped struggling and let him hold me in his arms.
When I obeyed like this, he lost his interest and put me down: "I have received the message from your Tolanji. If you can give me a satisfactory answer today, I will spare you. If you can't, you'll have to blame yourself for your own thin life. ”
I wiped the tears from my face and laughed at myself, "You're not as suspicious as they say. I look like a ghost now, and you still have to listen to my plan. ”
"I thought you were scared so I closed my eyes, but I didn't expect it to be because of these unparalleled blue eyes." He reached out and touched my face, which I gently sidestepped away.
"Where are the soldiers and horses of the Wu Kingdom now?" I grabbed the placket of my shirt and said the right thing.
"Wu Wangfucha has led most of the elite troops to approach the southeast of the Jin Kingdom, and the army of the Qin State Prince Gong has also passed Dali and is stationed in the west of the Jin Kingdom." There was deep disdain in his tone, and he seemed to be very dissatisfied with the unrighteous actions of the Qin State to take advantage of the chaos to attack Jin.
"I have a plan, if I do it well, I can not only solve the crisis of the Jin State without spending a single soldier, but also take the opportunity to weaken the Wu State, so that Wu Wangfu will no longer be able to attack Jin."
"Hahaha, the child's boasting is not inferior to your appearance." He seemed to have heard the funniest joke and laughed out loud.
"You lighten up!" I forgot who he was, and habitually twisted his arm.
"Bold boy, how dare you ......," he swallowed and put away his laughter.
"The Jin Kingdom is in danger, and you can still laugh? My plan is not feasible, you will know when you are done. ”
"Listen up!" His language was playful and irritating.
"Wu Wangfu has repeatedly caused military disasters in recent years, nothing more than wanting to regain the honor of his father when he was alive, please return to China, persuade the Marquis of Jin to repair a letter to King Wu, just say that it is enough to recognize the overlord of Wu."
"Ridiculous! If you want the Jin State to give up the position of overlord, this is no different from surrender! He snapped back.
"Don't you understand the truth that the Lord can't be angry and raise teachers, and he can't be angry and cause war, and if it's in his right, he will move, and if it's not in his favor, he'll stop, don't you understand? It's winter now, and the army is undoubtedly looking for death, so why not give up the false name of the overlord for the time being! ”
"If it is in line with the benefit, it will be moved, and if it is not in line with the benefit, it will stop?"
"That's right! After the Marquis of Jin repaired the book to Queen Wu, he could repair another book to King Yue, and then choose a place close to the Jin Kingdom to invite King Wu to join the alliance. Review the army, feast at night, hunt, and play for half a month, and the state of Wu will naturally be broken by the country of Yue. When the time comes, it will be too late for Wu Wangfu to send home to fight the fire, and the position of overlord will naturally not be taken away. As soon as Wu's army withdrew, Qin's army naturally withdrew, isn't this the ending you want? ”
When I had finished, he was silent for a long time, except for a pair of dark eyes staring at me through the eyes of the beast.
"What are you looking at me like that?" I leaned sideways away from his gaze and shouted coldly.
"I'm wondering, why did God let a woman like you be born into this troubled world, is this a blessing or a curse?"
"Whether it's a blessing or a curse, this night has nothing to do with you, you better hurry up!"
I reached out and pushed him, but he pulled me and hid in the bamboo bush in the corner.
"What are you doing?" I shoved him, and he reached out to cover my mouth, and whispered in my ear, "You have come up with such a good plan for me, and I will ask you to see the good scenery as well." ”
The bush of bamboo in the corner barely managed to hide the two men, and the beast-faced man tightened me so tightly that I struggled to take his hand off my mouth.
"Shhhh He almost bit my ear and said.
