Chapter 52: Returning from Fatigue (4)

I don't know how long I fell asleep, Ouyang Zhen only felt that he had sunk into a fog, and there were murderous sounds around him, but he couldn't see a single figure, someone was desperately shouting, those voices seemed familiar and seemed very unfamiliar,

Ouyang Zhen only felt cold and hungry on his body, and he couldn't see the direction of his head, nor could he see the road under his feet.

Suddenly, a war horse ran by, and someone suddenly stopped her and hugged her, laughing. Ouyang Zhen screamed, and when he looked back, he saw that it was Su Yanqing holding her, Ouyang Zhen was about to say something to him, and suddenly a wound appeared on his neck, dripping with blood, very scary.

Yes!!!

Ouyang Zhen jumped up suddenly. I don't know when, there were already a few dim candles in the car, and Chu Huotian was sitting by the bookcase and looked back at her.

"What's wrong, having a nightmare?" He got up and sat down beside her, reached out, took a piece of brocade, and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

"This one scares you out of the way. Wait for Ben Hou to call Li Jing to get a bowl of soothing soup. He said. There was a hint of reassurance in his mellow voice, and under the flickering light, his deep features reflected the silhouette of the flickering light.

"Master Hou......" Ouyang Zhen's eyes were blank, and he only grabbed his cuffs. Hoarseness.

"Let's sleep a little longer. You've slept for less than an hour. Chu Huotian lowered his voice to comfort her, and then instructed Li Jingcai outside the car to bring water and soup.

Ouyang Zhen looked at all this in front of him in a daze, and his heart, which was beating wildly because of the nightmare, slowly calmed down. She pursed her dry lips and whispered, "Master Hou is so good to the concubine......"

Chu Huotian's tall body was standing by the car door, and he was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he sighed slightly and said, "Cross the river...... I want to be nice to you......" He paused: "I don't have a chance......"

Ouyang Zhen raised his head when he heard this, only to see that his deep facial features returned to their original cold expression for a moment. Her heart shrank and she lowered her head again.

Chu Huotian sighed lightly, sat beside her, took her cold hand and put it in his big palm and rubbed it gently: "After crossing the river, needless to say you, even Benhou himself has a lot of times when he can't help himself." So...... You have to be careful in everything. There are some things that even Ben Hou can't take into account. ”

"One night husband and wife, I don't want to end up watching you hate me. Though I have destroyed your kingdom and your house. But I still hope you understand me. It's all irreversible. He said the last word "I", and he stared at her, his gaze deep, dark as the depths of the sea.

Ouyang Zhen's delicate softness slowly warmed up and restored his blood color under his rubbing.

She slowly raised her head and said word by word with a smile: "The concubine understands!" ”

Her smile is like a lotus flower blooming under the lamp, her scattered sideburns hang down behind her head, she is only wearing a single dress, and her thin body is shrouded in the dim light in the car, which makes her even more weak and unparalleled.

Chu Huotian's heart tightened, sighed softly, and hugged her tightly.

"Why? Why do you have to take the concubine with you. She asked slowly in his arms, her voice fluttering, but the question seemed to drain all the strength in her heart. The flickering candlelight dimmed the figures of the two.

"Why? Ben Hou didn't know why. He looked down and smiled self-deprecatingly, staring at her face, his long sword eyebrows gently raised, and his smooth and broad forehead reflected the light, making him look even more plump.

Why? You may know, but you don't want to know.

The gears of fate carry people forward all the time, everyone can't help themselves, how can you ask why?

……

At the end of May of the third year of Chu Qiande, the Marquis of Chu Ding led 30,000 soldiers and horses Haohao into Chu Jing on the spot, and Emperor Chu led hundreds of civil and military officials to personally go out of the imperial city for thirty miles to welcome the return of the Marquis of Chu Ding.

……

The sound of horses' hooves and the rolling of wheels. Ouyang Zhen was looking at a book in the soft collapse of the car. The sun was blazing in the sky, and away from the moist and warm land, the air in Chujing seemed very dry and crisp.

"Ma'am, do you want some dry food? Don't go hungry today. Wan Hui gently persuaded on the side. Ouyang Zhen took the steamed bun in her hand, but the look of thought in her deep and big eyes gradually deepened.

"Let's use some for everybody. Eat the snacks that you didn't finish yesterday. It seems that the Hou Ye wants to catch up with the royal driver in front of him. Ouyang Zhen said lightly.

As soon as the words fell, Ming Ying and Wan Hui couldn't help but put down the dry food in their hands gloomily, silent, and the depressed atmosphere filled every corner of the carriage. This means that thousands of Chinese captives have really become prisoners of the Chu people.

Ouyang Zhen's bright eyes swept over the two of them with a resolute cold light, but he said lightly: "Let's be relieved." There are some things we can't do. After speaking, he turned his head and hugged Ling Xiangyi by the carriage and went out alone.

How can she not be in pain, leaving her homeland, the mountains and rivers along the way, carved in her heart like a knife, bloody when touched, indelible,

However, even if you don't want to, you can only go all the way.

Can't stop, let alone retreat!

The official road outside the car is smooth, and from a distance, you can see many flat green wheat fields on both sides undulating in the warm wind of May.

After crossing the Yuanjiang River, the terrain gradually opens up, and you can often see the whole paddy field and wheat field. The growth is very gratifying. Unlike the desolation of Huadi due to war, I think this year is another bumper harvest year in Chudi.

Ouyang Zhen lightly retracted her gaze, from the moment she stepped on Chu Land, she was no longer the Ouyang Zhen who only sought self-protection before. She has to become stronger, only in this way can she survive and protect the people she wants to protect.
