That night, Liu Jing made two dishes and one soup, and dined with Shu'er in the Bumeng Pavilion.

Shu'er saw that the two dishes and one soup, meat and vegetables complement each other, although it is a simple home-cooked meal, the taste is very chic, it can be described as a rare in the plain, and it is by no means comparable to Liu Jing's cooking skills, so he asked: "Is this really made by you yourself?" ”

Liu Jing said frankly: "I made it myself. However, I hired a very qualified imperial chef to guide me, so that I would not be clumsy and waste food. Speaking of which, the imperial chef is the master who can cook Qi cuisine in the tavern who returned from outside the city. He witnessed the three changes of ownership of the Jade Capital, and was finally invited back to the White Jade Palace by me. Then he lowered his eyebrows and smiled, "When my grandfather broke through the jade capital and the master escaped from the White Jade Palace, he would never have imagined that one day, he would teach the good dishes of Qi that he made to the grandson of King Wu of Song." ”

Shu'er remembered the old cook in the tavern who returned, and even heard that he took the secret edict of Xiao Xun, the king of Qiyu, to tell the world the secret that Liu Ying was the widow of the princess of the dead country of Qi. Shu'er sighed: "That master is from the Qi country, aren't you afraid that he will poison you and me, the 'dog man and woman' who betrayed the king of Qi?" ”

Liu Jing took a sip of crucian carp tofu soup and said, "I have been friends with the master for seven or eight years, and in these seven or eight years, he didn't know that I was the king of Song. Before moving the capital to Yide last year, I went to Huilaiju alone to say goodbye to him and told him who I really am. If he wanted to kill me, he could have done it.

Early in the morning, when you said that you wanted to eat the dishes I made with my own hands, I remembered the old chef who had returned to the center, so I immediately sent someone to invite him into the palace, and he did not refuse. When I saw him in the dining room, the first thing I asked him was, I designed to kill the King of Qi, do you want to kill me to avenge the King of Qi?

Shu'er, guess what the old master said? ”

Shu'er has been immersed in soup and vegetables, never looked up to look at Liu Jing, and did not look up at this time, and said indifferently: "I don't know." ”

Liu Jing smiled slightly: "The old master said that if he knew that I was the King of Song when he first saw me seven or eight years ago, he would definitely kill me when I was unprepared." But now, he doesn't want to kill me. When I asked him why, he said that I had supported his family for seven or eight years, and that I admired his cooking and the wine. Now, he is reluctant to kill me. He also said that as long as the people can live and work in peace and contentment, it doesn't matter to him whether the king of Qi or the king of Song lives in the White Jade Palace. ”

Shu'er said: "Actually, whether Liu Jing or Liu Ying lives in the White Jade Palace doesn't matter to me. But you forced my husband to death, and I have to avenge this revenge. ”

Liu Jing looked at Shu'er with a gloomy face, and just wanted to talk more with her to relieve her depressed mood. "Shu'er, I know what's going on in your mind. We've had countless opportunities to kill me along the way, but you didn't. On the Yihui Mountain Road, the wound you stabbed me in the chest had already healed, and you still didn't seek revenge on me, is it because you think it's too cheap to kill me with a sword? You want to torture me to the point where your house is restless and your body is completely ruined, and then you will kill me again to avenge your husband? ”

Shu'er took a bite of vinegared cabbage and was indifferent.

Liu Jing, all of this is just a bitter drama I played. I can only use this method to cover for the glimmer of life of Calm and my father-in-law. Only by making your house restless and overwhelmed, only by playing out my hatred for you, will you believe that they are dead. Only if I am entangled with you, will the world believe that they are dead.

Liu Jing put two spoonfuls of minced meat and eggplant into Shu'er's bowl, and said warmly, "I'm curious about how you will torture me." Whatever you do, I'm willing to do my best to cooperate. Forgiveness, my life has long been yours. As long as you are happy, whether you let me die, let me suffer life, I will never fight back. ”

Shu'er finally looked up at Liu Jing: "You and I used to talk about everything, and I still want you to hear some things in my heart." ”

Liu Jing put down his chopsticks and looked at Shu'er quietly.

Shu'er said: "I didn't kill you with a sword, in fact, because I know in my heart that you are not the only one who kills calmly." The Rong people attacked Shu and killed the calm, and the Rong people also had a share. The king of Shu himself did not go to Xiling to save you, but sat in Zichuan, let Congrong lead the troops to Xiling, and kill Congrong, and the evil also had a share. The king of Chu did not prevent you from leading the troops into Shu, nor did he prevent you from calmly leading the troops into Shu, and Lin Ying also had a part in killing the calm. There are also those Qi soldiers who were surrounded by the Song army, and they voluntarily jumped off the cliff in order to save them. Kill calmly, the soldiers of Qi also have a share.

Even I have a share.

As for my father-in-law's fall off the cliff, perhaps it should be counted as my fault more than your treachery. ”

Liu Jing was puzzled: "What does this have to do with you?" ”

Shu'er Muran said: "When I made a private agreement with Congrong for life, I asked him to promise me that no matter what kind of life and death situation, I would not hurt Liu Jing, the king of Song." He agreed to me without hesitation.

I have already asked General Lu Hui what happened at the peak of the peerless peak that day. Lu Hui said that the arrow array of Xiaoxiao Camp actually couldn't help the King of Qi, and even if he did, the King of Qi could throw an arrow at the King of Song before jumping off the cliff. With King Qi's martial arts, even if he couldn't kill King Song with one arrow, he could still seriously injure King Song. However, in order to save the lives of the soldiers of the Qi Kingdom, the King of Qi jumped off the peerless peak with righteousness, and did not hurt the King of Song......

Lu Hui said that although he respected the righteousness of King Qi, he also had to feel that King Qi was too benevolent, and it was indeed difficult to achieve great causes, so it was better to give up the country to King Song.

But you don't know where the 'benevolence' of King Qi to King Song came from. If he hadn't promised me not to kill you back then, the battle of the Peerless Peak might have taken another turn.

and the death of the stepfather...... In fact, it has nothing to do with me. Before leaving calmly, he told me not to let any patriots go to Shu, including my father-in-law. Although I promised to be calm, I saw my father-in-law with my own eyes outside the Jade Capital City, but I didn't stop him.

Calmly kept his promise to me, and I didn't keep my promise to him. Compared to my self-blame, my guilt, the torture I endured, and what I did to you, I was already merciful. After all, in Song Guotian's prison, you once saved my life, and the child in my womb was also saved by you.

Liu Jing, I won't kill you, but I won't let you have a good time either. ”

Liu Jing felt so painful in his heart, but he smiled lightly on his face: "In this case, I will cook a table of delicacies for you at every meal, and you can eat and drink well before you have the strength to torture me." Since you have told me the truth, I will also tell you the truth—

Actually, I can't wait for you to help me demolish the White Jade Palace and release me, a 'lonely and widowed Song prisoner', and there will be no King Song from now on, only Liu Jing who washes his hands and makes soup for you. ”
