Volume 1: Once Upon a Time in the Capital Chapter 125: Words of the Heart
Nothing just starts and doesn't end. When I was a child, I thought that I could find what I had lost. When I grew up, I found that the mother's love, father's love, brother-sister affection, and friendship that I had received had been slowly lost with the years.
Some are natural, and some are ugly. But that's what feelings are, right?
There was a mess after the wind and clouds.
Gu Daoming completely lost the elegant appearance of a rich son, and he burped without any image, and an unpleasant smell suddenly emanated, overshadowing the diffuse smell of blood. He wiped his mouth and lay there in a comfortable position, looking up at the broken rubble, trying to see through it
Huang Xiaowei never touched a bite of food from beginning to end, and his face was expressionless. He picked up the bowl and took another sip of wine. turned a deaf ear to Gu Daoming's eating appearance.
"In the past, the happiest time was to climb up to the roof of the building in the middle of the night and lie on the rubble to watch the stars and moonlight. Gu Daoming put his hands on the back of his head and whispered in a lazy voice. Qingrou always rubbed her eyes, looked at me with a blank eye, and asked me to take her up with her. Then the two of us quietly watched the night sky, and Qingrou always watched and fell asleep. Heh......" After speaking, Gu Daoming's face showed a rare gentle color.
Huang Xiaowei put down the wine bowl when he heard this, and looked at Gu Daoming's gaze.
There were no stars, no moonlight, nothing but darkness.
She turned her head to look at the fading bonfire, her expression a little sad. In her childhood, she climbed to the top of a tree by herself, with the sole purpose of seeing the hustle and bustle of the small courtyard beyond. The rest of the land is the rickety old woman and the mother who has been melancholy and cold more than caring. And the titular father always looked at her from afar with a look that she still couldn't understand.
The roads of childhood were so crowded and lonely only because they received extremely little love.
"How is Qingrou now, is she okay?" Gu Daoming asked leisurely. It was his sister, the sister of the same father and mother, a relative of the real blood relationship. She is also a weak woman who has never been ambitious. Since marrying Qingyun, he has been teaching his husband and children at home. If there is really something indebted to anyone in this world, that person must be Gu Qingrou.
For Gu Daoming's extremism, Huang Xiaowei still had no expression on his face. She said lightly, "She's fine." Although I know that she doesn't have a crush on me, I will miss my father's blood relationship. Thinking of the sister named Qingrou, after Qingyun's accident, there was deep hatred in her tearful eyes. No matter who she is, she is an outsider, not Gu Qingyi's daughter, and she can't help but have an indescribable bitterness on her face.
Huang Xiaowei fiddled with the wine bowl in his hand and muttered: "She is pregnant, and she originally wanted to tell Tsing Yi Di that day, but she was not in a hurry." ”
Gu Qingyi lay there, motionless.
"There's something you don't know. Tsing Yi is a cultivator, although he doesn't know what his real purpose is in the gang to get close to his father. But after all, there was no good intention. It's the same for Qingju. He doesn't have much love for Qingrou, and it's just an ulterior motive to get close. If you've ever paid attention to her life, you should know. Huang Xiaowei continued.
"Cut...... The woman's view. Where do you know how to be ambitious for men? Gu Daoming said in a low voice, disdainfully.
"Really?" Huang Xiaowei did not refute, but asked rhetorically.
"When a man is based in the world, he should do something. It's either money or power, otherwise what's the point of being like an ant?" Gu Daoming said slowly, thought for a while, a trace of unwillingness and resentment flashed in his eyes, raised his voice, and continued: "I don't regret what I did, I believe that under my leadership, the Tsing Yi Gang will definitely become stronger than under my father's hands, and the Tsing Yi Gang can only last for a long time in my hands! ”
"Heh......" Huang Xiaowei replied to Gu Qingyi with a chuckle, poured the wine in the bowl into his throat, smacked his mouth lightly, and said, "The state of Tsing Yi's help, we all know it in our hearts." It seems that the scenery is infinite, but in fact, it has long been full of holes. We are nothing more than puppets in the hands of the ministers of the DPRK and China. All they want is to create enough wealth, and they will not care about the future of our brothers until then. For them, our lives are as cheap as a mustard. ”
Huang Xiaowei stood up, took his hands, looked at the empty ground behind the curtain, and continued: "Do you know why my brother suddenly disappeared five years ago?"
Gu Daoming stood up and sat up, looking at Huang Xiaowei's somewhat thin figure. He really didn't know about these things.
"Five years ago, my father obeyed the order and led 35 elites of the gang to Hongcheng to carry out an encirclement and suppression. Of the thirty-five, only my father and six dead men came back alive. Huang Xiaowei said in a heavy voice.
Gu Daoming was surprised, blurted out and asked, "Yes, the time when you surrounded and suppressed Lu Changfeng, father...... Involved?"
Huang Xiaowei turned around, looked at Gu Daoming with an incredulous expression, and nodded.
"How...... How is that possible?" Gu Daoming still couldn't believe it. Isn't their Tsing Yi Gang just a gang in the capital? they manage the underground order, and they openly trade things that can't be put on the table but are desperately needed by the powerful.
"My father told me this personally. He said he regretted it. When I started going, I received an order only to help meet and kill a strong enemy, and asked my father to go by name. Huang Xiaowei explained, "Master Lu was also a hero admired by his father, and they only participated in the final encirclement and suppression, until they fought face-to-face, and only found out that the big banner was Lu Jiajun." ”
Huang Xiaowei sighed, was silent for a while, and then said: "Those people want to kill two birds with one stone, which not only purge political enemies, but also weaken the strength of the Tsing Yi Gang. Because my father already had the intention of breaking away from the control of the ministers of the court, he was contrary to their interests in many things. When borrowing a knife to kill someone, the blade will often be damaged and frustrated. That's their good idea. ”
Gu Daoming stood up suddenly, he was very arrogant, but it didn't mean that he was a fool. After breaking through the words, he understood a lot of things, and muttered, "No wonder...... I can still receive secret messages from those people. It turns out that they also want to borrow my hand to break up the entire Tsing Yi Gang!haha...... Haha......"
Gu Daoming laughed a few times desolately, and after stopping, he stared at Huang Xiaowei and said, "Sword cultivators and witch masters can smoothly obey my orders, and they are also behind the scenes?"
Huang Xiaowei nodded a little reluctantly. During the whole process, Gu Daoming was just used as a pawn crossing the river to charge into the position. Even if he really becomes the leader of the Tsing Yi Gang, he will still lose control of his rights. The best ending is just to live a drunken and prosperous life.
"No wonder...... No wonder ......" Gu Daoming seemed to have lost his soul, and his body trembled. Suddenly, he remembered a sentence: How many things in the previous dynasty were laughed and discussed. All ambitions are just in the hands of those behind the scenes, and those people, hiding in the dark corners, can't stop sneering. Still unwilling, he asked, "What about ...... How did you get to me this time?"
Huang Xiaowei sighed again. He had doubted Xi Tou before, and with his ability, it was difficult for Gu Daoming to escape. After that, the information came that Gu Daoming was destined to go north, and the comparison of the appearance and height collected by the Tsing Yi gang who were sent to chase along the way was consistent with Gu Daoming himself. Indeed, it is very clever.
"We received news that you haven't actually left Yanjing. Huang Xiaowei said truthfully.
"That is, those people have your people around them?"
"Hmm"
"Impossible! How could you arrange the shadows to those people......" Gu Daoming sneered, and suddenly remembered that in the capital city was like heaven and earth Ning'an Wang Qiuhong, after he left, King Ning'an and Huang Xiaowei joined forces to take over the entire operation of Ning'an Town. He muttered, "Yes...... Ning'an Wang ...... It's him...... It's him!"
Huang Xiaowei was noncommittal, and he was unwilling to continue to discuss and investigate this matter. When Gu Daoming had enough time to buffer this information, she spoke: "Someone told me that if a weak person wants to fight for his rights, the only way is to shine as much as possible. The shimmer illuminates the shimmer, relying on each other and shining together. Only this kind of light can slowly brighten up the oppressive darkness and haze. ”
The corners of Gu Daoming's mouth outlined a look of disdain, and he said sarcastically: "So, you join forces with King Ning'an to vassalize the Tsing Yi Gang to him, and turn the entire Tsing Yi Gang into a tool for him to make money!"
"Hmm. Huang Xiaowei was unmoved by Gu Daoming's tone, and admitted generously. He replied: "Isn't it the same if the eldest brother promised them to come back and take the position of the leader of the gang again? Or does the eldest brother think that you are really capable of fighting those treacherous and cunning people? In all fairness, none of us are as capable as our fathers." Even my father can't escape this fate, let alone us?"
Gu Daoming's face was swollen by these words. Red.
"King Ning An looks weak now, but if you think he will lose, then you are very wrong!" Huang Xiaowei said firmly.
"Yes, how do you know? He's just an unrespected concubine! Just like you! He was born of an unfavored servant!" The closer he got to the truth, the more Gu Daoming became desperate, and this despair slowly turned into a kind of verbal vitriol!
Huang Xiaoweidi's mother is naturally not a servant girl, on the contrary, whether she is born or cultivated, she will be much better than Gu Daoming's mother Hua's mother in the birthplace of a poor girl. The reason why she has been unpopular since she was a child is just because her mother has no feelings for Gu Qingyi and resentment. In this regard, she was reluctant to explain too much, and sneered: "Maybe it is precisely because of the humble status of the concubine that I can know what it means to cherish, work harder, and slowly go to the end?"
She shook her head again and continued: "Big brother, until now, you still don't admit that you have lost?
Huang Xiaowei pressed forward step by step and walked in front of Gu Daoming. Gu Daoming staggered back a few steps, and she said in her heart: "If I go to contact the person behind you and say that I am willing to agree to their conditions, do you think you still have a little bit of use value in their eyes?"
