Chapter 261: Old Acquaintances (1)
Promise to get married, get married, even if I have no future with Wuxi, I have never regretted these two things. Therefore, in the face of Lan Ji's ridicule, I smiled calmly: "Lan Ji, there are things in this world that others can indeed snatch away, but some can't be snatched." Title, wife, Ah Shi has never been in sight, others want to grab it. But what is mine, it will be mine. So it was, and so it will be. ”
"It's yours, it's going to be yours?" Lan Ji covered her lips and laughed, then pulled the placket of my clothes, pointed to the red maple in the courtyard and said, "Stupid woman, what is left behind is what is thrown away, and his Zhao Wuxian's eyes will always only look forward." Look at this empty courtyard, think about the woman who lived in this courtyard, there is no one in this world who is worth looking back to! Back then, I wasn't an exception. Neither will you be these days! ”
"No, it's not, what's the big deal." I loved the same man as her, but I had no interest or time to be here with her to remember the lost love. She hated me, so she wanted to trample on me, who was also abandoned. But I am no longer the wine lady who washes her face with tears every day in the Song Guofu Su Pavilion. She came late, and if she had come half a year earlier, she would have been able to enjoy me. But she met a warrior who was ready to do so, and she didn't get the slightest advantage from me.
"He's not yours anymore, you really don't care?" Lan Ji looked at me, and she was surprised by my coldness and indifference at the moment.
"He never belonged to anyone. You are the one who can't let go of him, and if you keep talking to me, you will be the one who hurts. The world says that Zheng Nu Lanji is the dream of men all over the world, as long as you are willing, some men treat you with their hearts and lungs. Since he is not your beloved, why can't you let him go like this? ”
"Who said I couldn't let him go! Since the day he Zhao Wuxian killed me in Zhifu, I have already broken off with him! Lan Ji's face changed suddenly, she flicked her long sleeves, and a large branch of the maple tree closest to her was broken off in an instant, and I hurriedly got up and retreated.
"What kind of thing is this woman, a shameless abandoned woman still dares to speak to me, that is, you turned him into a stupid man, that is, you made him kill me, I hate you, why don't you cry, today I just want you to cry to me!" Orchid jumped in front of me with a broken branch, reaching out and slamming my neck.
I had a throat in my throat, and I could only pull out the volinthine cord and wrap it around her right arm. The barbs on the Vorinous cord hooked into Rankie's light clothes, and I felt pain, and she shivered in pain.
"Ashi, Ashi," Kuroko's voice sounded outside the courtyard gate.
Lan Ji's face was panicked, as if she had come to her senses, and immediately let go.
"Now that the master has arrived, Lan Ji will leave." She clutched her arm stabbed by Vorinso and turned to leave.
The tall and big black man passed by her, watched her go out of the courtyard, and couldn't see her back, so he came to my side and asked with a smile: "Ah Shi, who is this beautiful sister just now?" How come I haven't seen it before?
I clutched my aching throat and glared at Kuroko, eager to break off a door panel and smash his head to wake up.
"What's wrong with you? Sore throat? "Kuroko finally noticed something strange about me.
"She is Zheng Nu Lanji, the main person before the hexagram." I opened my mouth hoarsely, bowing my head to retract the rope.
"It turns out that she is Zheng Nu Lanji, and she is really a first-class beauty." Kuroko grinned, and looked back again.
I looked at the sky speechlessly, and finally couldn't help but slap him on the head: "Are all you men heads?" If you want to see her every day in the future, cut off your life and go to the Chen Mansion of Qi to be a temple person! ”
"Oh, you girl is too vicious to speak. With such a big anger, Lan Ji bullied you? Kuroko leaned up and lifted my collar, and I pushed his hand away: "You hurry up and help me inquire, when did this Lan Ji enter Tianshu, and who has she seen since she entered Tianshu?" What was done? ”
"What, there's something wrong with this woman?" Kuroko finally straightened his complexion.
"Don't ask so much about it, just ask." Lan Ji just said that she had broken off with Wu Xian En because of me since the night fight in Zhifu that day, but if this is the case, why did she marry Chen Pan as a concubine later? Stay in the country of Qi? If she wasn't a spy who was planted by Chen Pan's side without shirts, then who was she? Why did you appear in Tianshu at this time?
"Kuroko, did you find the person who just eavesdropped on us outside the bamboo forest?"
"Oops, I almost forgot about what I was doing when I was knocked by you." Heizi touched his head, turned his head and shouted outside the door, "Ah Yang, Ah Yang, come in and see you!" ”
Ah Yang is an orphan girl who survived after the prince swept the city, she was only ten years old when she met me, and she led a group of dolls younger than her over the mountains to avoid the military disaster at a young age. I can't remember what she looked like, but I remember her name clearly, and I remember that she left the village where she had lost all her loved ones when all her children chose to stay. At Fengling Ferry, she followed the almost unfamiliar Mingyi to Tianshu, and I followed the "Zhang Mengtan" who only had three sides to Xinjiang. Almost at the same time, we bid farewell to our sad past and rushed to the unknown world without hesitation.
Now, a wonderful fate has brought us together again.
"Ah Yang has seen a nobleman." The girl knelt in front of me, she was thin and thin, and she was not tall, but two sword eyebrows and a layer of honey-colored skin made her look a little more heroic.
"Hurry up!" I pulled Ah Yang to sit down beside me, smiled and looked her up and down, "The little girl has grown so fast in the past few years, if you don't say your name, I really don't dare to recognize it." How is it, are you still used to living in Tianshu all these years? The bad sisters who exchanged the hexagram bullied you a lot, right? ”
Ah Yang smiled and shook his head, and a row of tiny teeth appeared in the center of his two red cherry-like lips: "If you go back to your nobles, the slave does not live in the courtyard where the hexagram is exchanged, and the sisters there only know three in total." ”
"You don't live in the hexagram?! So where did they divide you? I asked Ah Yang, but my eyes glanced at the sunspot standing on the side. If I'm not mistaken, as long as the girls who have entered Tianshu are more beautiful, they will all be assigned to the hexagram to learn music and dance, how can they be left out with such a posture as A Yang?
"Ah Shi, look what I do! This matter is determined by Ming Yi, he said that Ah Yang is bold, and his temperament is calm, and it is too wasteful to be a dancing and pouring female music in the hexagram, so he specially asked someone to send her to Xun hexagram. Kuroko said and reached out and took out a two-finger-long thin blade dagger from Ah Yang's belt and handed it to me, "Look, the people in the Xun hexagram didn't treat her badly. This is called the willow leaf dagger, which was specially made for her by the master of Xun, which can be hidden in the sleeve on weekdays, and when it is used, as long as the fingers are flicked like this, and then the neck is so slipped, it can kill people instantly. ”
"Xun hexagram? She's a girl, and you're sending her to be an assassin?! I didn't have time to look at the willow leaf dagger in Heizi's hand when I heard this, so I turned my head and said to Ah Yang, "Ah Yang, Xun hexagram is all about walking on the tip of a knife, why didn't you beg the master to let him keep you in the hexagram or simply go up the mountain to find a doctor to study medicine?" ”
"You don't have to worry about slaves." Ah Yang smiled and took the willow leaf dagger from Kuroko's hand and stuffed it back into his waist, "Slaves are pariahs and are stupid by nature, and they can't learn witchcraft and medicine. Fortunately, when I was a child, I ran a lot in the mountains and my hands and feet were faster than others, and I was finally able to stay in the Xun hexagram. And now I am a girl in the yard, and my brothers take good care of me. ”
I saw Ah Yang smiling indifferently, and I felt even more regretful in my heart: "Little girl, can you go out and do a task now?" ”
"Soon, when the slave has passed this summer's trial, he will be able to go out of the valley with his brothers to carry out Lord Xun's orders." Ah Yang straightened up the girl's white dove-like chest, and looked eager to try.
"You...... Not afraid of killing? "Ah Yang's reaction surprised me a little.
"Don't be afraid, the slave has seen a lot of dead people before."
"It's not the same as seeing a dead person and killing someone."
"Well, slave knows."
"No, you don't." I raised my hand and pinned a wisp of sweaty head on the side of Ah Yang's face behind my ear, "Killing someone may seem to you now as a matter of a moment when the knife falls, as long as you are proficient, there is nothing to be afraid of." But you don't know, the real difficulty that murderers have to face is memory. You're so young, how can you forget the faces of the souls of your swords, the way they look at you before they die? ”
"The elder brothers in the Xun hexagram have killed people, and the Xun lord said that it may be uncomfortable at first, but then everyone will forget about it. It's just that some people forget faster, and some people forget faster. ”
"This is what your Lord Xun said......" I looked at my eyes as clear as the spring water of Ah Yang, and couldn't help but sigh in my heart, Yu An, Yu An, what kind of life have you lived all these years. Where did the polite, kind and gentle young man go? "Ah Yang, you are still too young, maybe you don't understand what I'm talking about now. Just remember that if you kill someone one day and then don't remember that person's face, that is the greatest misfortune for you. ”
"Nobleman, why is it painful to remember, and unfortunate not to remember?" Ah Yang frowned slightly and looked at me with a serious face. I laughed to myself, got up and pulled her up: "Forget it, don't worry if you don't understand it now." I'll stay in Qiangua for the rest of my days, and if you want to follow me, just come and tell me. I'll go and talk to Mrs. Wuyin. Also, you don't have to call me a noble person, I'm three years older than you, just call me sister. ”
"Noble, no, sister, don't go to Madame......" Ah Yang took my hand and checked around before approaching, "Just outside the forest, it was Madame's maidservant who eavesdropped on you." ”
"So you deliberately knocked over the man's thing?"
"Hmm."
When Kuroko and I left the courtyard of Wuyin, a maid with a copper bowl and a copper basin passed by us. At that time, I watched her go away, so I pulled the sunspot into the bamboo forest. Unexpectedly, she actually turned back and eavesdropped.
