Chapter 52: Autumn Moon Knows the Truth (Part 2, Chapter 5)
Following.
When Yang Cheng calmed down, it was Xu Lang's turn to look at Yang Cheng. Qiu Yue and Zhang Shuo walked out.
Qiuyue asked Zhang Shuo and her to go to the suburbs to climb the mountain. When he reached the top of the mountain, Qiuyue said to Zhang Shuo: "Zhang Shuo, my heart is very messy, can you understand?" β
Zhang Shuo said: "I know, now it is the first thing to let Yang Cheng stop the medicine, even if you choose Yang Cheng in the end, I can accept it." β
Qiu Yue pulled out her sword and said to Zhang Shuo, "Let's have a competition!" It's been a long time since I've practiced swords. β
Today, Qiuyue's move is particularly powerful, and in dozens of rounds, Zhang Shuo has already lost badly. Zhang Shuo hurriedly said: "Qiuyue, you know, my martial arts are not as good as yours. β
Qiu Yue said: "Then accompany me to practice swords, and do your best to practice with me." It's like learning martial arts together. β
After speaking, he attacked Zhang Shuo with a sharp move. There is no hesitation, just like the person opposite is an enemy, not a husband who is about to get engaged before.
Zhang Shuo could only avoid it, he felt that Qiu Yue was wrong today, so he could only deal with it with all his might.
Qiu Yue still attacked Zhang Shuo with all her strength, and Zhang Shuo was kicked several times in a row and slapped several times.
After dozens of rounds, Zhang Shuo's physical strength was obviously unable to keep up, and there were still a few injuries on his body.
Zhang Shuo asked, "Qiuyue, what's wrong with you?" β
Qiu Yue said: "Zhang Shuo, I don't know why, I always feel very messed up. If I don't vent it, I'll go crazy. Seeing Yang Cheng so painful, I felt very uncomfortable, I was really sad. You accompany me to practice swords, and I want to vent all the unhappiness in my heart through the competition. β
Qiu Yue stepped back a little, ready to attack Zhang Shuo again, when suddenly her feet slipped and fell down the mountain. Seeing this, Zhang Shuo instantly dropped his sword, rushed over, and grabbed Qiu Yue's hand. Then pull Qiu Yue up the hill with all his might.
His heart was about to jump out, such a familiar scene, such a thrilling scene.
Zhang Shuo hugged Qiuyue tightly and said, "Qiuyue, are you okay?" You scared me to death. How dangerous it is just ......"
Before Zhang Shuo finished speaking, he was slapped in the face by Qiu Yue, and then she cried and said, "Is it really you?" Why do this and why? β
Zhang Shuo immediately thought that Qiu Yue was using herself to test herself, and it turned out that she was doubting herself.
Zhang Shuo confessed: "It's me, if you want to know, just ask me directly, don't risk yourself." I won't hide anything from you. β
Qiu Yue cried helplessly and said coldly, "I saw the hostility of Princess Yongjing and Yang Cheng towards you, so I wanted to confirm my guess. I didn't expect it to be true, why are you doing this, answer me, why are you doing this? β
Zhang Shuo said: "Because of you, I love you so much, but with Yang Cheng here, I don't even have a chance." At that time, before his mind could react, in an instant, as soon as his hand was released, he fell. Seeing Yang Cheng fall, I regretted it very much. However, no matter what I say now, it will not be able to undo my sins. When Yang Cheng succeeded in cutting off the drug, I asked him for guilt, and he wanted to beat and kill, but I didn't complain. β
Then he said, "If you want to avenge him, I will bear it willingly." After speaking, he handed the sword to Qiu Yue's hand.
Qiu Yue kept crying, she didn't want to believe that a person like Zhang Shuo, no matter what aspect, he was a fair and upright gentleman, why would he do such a vicious thing.
Her hand holding the sword was shaking, and she wanted to stab it down. But thinking of this time, Zhang Shuo gave her all the warmth, those gentleness and care, which softened her heart, and she couldn't start.
She cried for a while, and after calming down, she said to Yang Cheng, "You go!" I don't want to see you again. Don't show up in front of me again. β
Zhang Shuo said: "Yang Cheng needs us now, I can not talk to you, but Yang Cheng needs help, and I will be duty-bound." When he is out of medicine, let him judge me. When it's all over, I'll leave and never come back, okay? β
Qiu Yue did not speak. Zhang Shuo knew that she agreed, after all, now Yang Cheng needed his help, and he also wanted to atone for his sins.
When they came back to take turns guarding Yang Cheng, their faces were not very good, and everyone looked at each other, just thinking that they were making an awkward fuss. Yang Mubai saw it in his eyes and was very anxious.
She pulled Qiuyue to the small courtyard and asked, "Qiuyue, are you okay?" β
Qiu Yue said with red eyes: "It's okay! β
Yang Mubai asked again: "Then you and Zhang Shuo?" β
Qiu Yue wiped her tears and said, "I don't want to talk about him? β
Yang Mubai thought that Zhang Shuo had bullied Qiuyue, so he asked, "Did he bully you because you took care of Yang Cheng?" β
"No, I don't want to talk about him, I just want to help Yang Cheng cut off the medicine now." After Qiu Yue finished speaking, she went back.
At night, Fengyi Palace.
Yang Mubai said to Pei Shengyuan: "Are Qiu Yue and Zhang Shuo having an awkward quarrel? I cried when I saw Qiu Yue today. You said that it was because Qiu Yue took care of Yang Cheng like this, Zhang Shuo was jealous. β
Pei Shengyuan probably guessed that it might be that Zhang Shuo had a showdown with Qiu Yue, so he said: "How is it possible, Qiu Yue is anxious for Yang Cheng!" Look at how painful Yang Cheng is! β
Yang Mubai said: "I know that Yang Cheng is in pain, and we are all very anxious. But I believe that he will definitely be able to stop the medicine, Yang Cheng is very powerful......"
Pei Shengyuan didn't want to talk about this topic, kissed her on the mouth, blocked her words, and said teasingly: "You can't say that other men are powerful in front of me." β
Yang Mubai glared at him and said, "I'm telling the truth, he and Zhang Shan have tried together, and they are not much worse than Zhang Shan." He is the most powerful guard in our family. β
Pei Shengyuan couldn't bear it anymore, and said: "I said that you can't say that other men are powerful in front of me, and you have to say one more." In other words, you and Zhang Shan grew up together, did you have any thoughts about him? β
Yang Mubai was particularly disdainful of his uncompetitive behavior: "If I like him, what else does it matter to you." I still eat old vinegar, it's really ......"
Pei Shengyuan said: "Then I'm not jealous, let's eat something else...... and then came to a deep kiss, well, note that tonight is a sleepless night.
Since the showdown between Zhang Shuo and Qiu Yue, the two have not spoken again, and Qiu Yue also deliberately avoided meeting Zhang Shuo.
Zhang Shuo knew that he would lose Qiuyue, and what he could do now was to make up for Yang Cheng. Seeing Yang Cheng like this, he especially regretted that his jealousy at that time caused Yang Cheng so much pain.
It would be great if we could do it all over again! He would rather bury this feeling deep in his heart than be so harmful!
After five days, Yang Cheng had almost reached the limit of his endurance. They had to tie him to a chair.
Yang Cheng looked at it, the whole person was bald, his face was thin and sunken, his face was pale, and he was still heroic.
Qiu Yue was very distressed when she saw it, and kept encouraging him. Talk to him about the past, bring back his memories, and distract him. At first, Yang Cheng responded, but then he was silent. He was enduring it painfully, and Qiu Yue saw it in his eyes, distressed and helpless.
In the afternoon, Yang Cheng spoke, he said: "I can't stand it, you guys kill me!" Otherwise, give me some medicine. β
He was in pain and kept saying, "Give me the medicine, give me the medicine, I can't stand it anymore." β
Or: "Kill me, give me a good time, I really can't do it, let me die!" β
Everyone just can't hear it, and they can't bear to give the medicine, and they must stop the medicine after him.
Later, he seemed to have become numb, and his whole body seemed to be stiff. It's just that you can often see his muscles twitching, and even if he doesn't moan, you can know how painful he is.
Qiu Yue hugged him and said to him, "Yang Cheng, you must be able to, you are the best man I have ever seen." I know you're going to make it through. β
Then he cried and said, "As long as you persevere, when you are well, I will promise you whatever you want." β
Yang Cheng reacted a little and asked, "Are you voluntary?" β
Qiu Yue nodded: "I am willing, I am willing to do anything for you, I will promise you everything, you must get better." β
Yang Cheng smiled and said: "Qiuyue, thank you, I will definitely persevere." β
Zhang Shuo's face was expressionless, no one knew the pain in his heart, and no one cared about him, he deserved it.
In the second half of the month, Yang Cheng endured in the limit. There were several troubles in the middle, but they all calmed down in the end
Now, he has been having seizures less and less, he has eaten more, and his body is noticeably more energetic.
Doctor Ye said that in a few days, the drug will be successfully stopped, and the body will slowly recover in the future.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and was happy that Yang Cheng had succeeded in taking the drug.
Princess Yongjing said goodbye to everyone when Yang Cheng was about to stop the medicine, and said that she was going to return to Lan Zhaoguo, she had been away for too long.
In the evening, Princess Yongjing brought the cooked meal to Yang Cheng. They ate and talked.
Yang Cheng said: "I'm sorry, my body, I haven't had time to introduce General Zhang Shan to you." β
Princess Yongjing said: "It's okay, your health is better, more important than anything else." I also know that I may not meet General Zhang Shan on this trip. β
Yang Cheng asked puzzledly, "Then why do you still want to come along?" β
Princess Yongjing said: "If you want to see the scenery of the imperial capital, it is good if you can see General Zhang Shan, and there is no regret if you can't see it." I'm so happy that you succeeded in taking the drug. β
Yang Cheng poured a pour of wine for Princess Yongjing: "Princess Yongjing, thank you for saving your life." There is nothing to hold in this life, if you have any requirements, mention them as soon as possible, I will definitely go to the soup and fire, and I will not give up. β
Princess Yongjing jokingly said: "You Central Plains people don't say that you want to promise to save your life, are you willing?" β
Yang Cheng was embarrassed and didn't know how to pick it up.
Princess Yongjing smiled and said, "You are such a fool, I am joking." β
Those secret loves, those proofs of her love for him, those things she gave for him, he will never know. Since he has found happiness, then she will fulfill him!
Yang Cheng said: "Do you like me? β
Princess Yongjing: "So until now, you still don't know that I like you?" β
Yang Cheng replied: "If you don't say it, how will I know?" β
...... "Good guy, how straight this man's brain is!" He was seriously injured and recuperated for more than a year, which time was not she accompanying him, which time was not she taking care of him, comforting her, encouraging him.
If she didn't like him, why did she do these things?
Now, with Qiuyue by his side, she is also content.
Princess Yongjing: "Don't talk about this, I will leave for Lanzhao tomorrow, I wish you and Qiuyue happiness." β
Yang Cheng said: "Princess Yongjing, I owe you a life, you can say whatever you want, I can do it, I will help you do it." It's okay to owe it first, and then you can write to me. β
Princess Yongjing: "Okay, then you owe me my life first!" β
Since Yang Cheng began to stop taking medicine, Qiu Yue moved back to the palace to live. In Zhang's Mansion, there are still some items, Zhang Shuo entered the palace today, and it is estimated that he will come back very late, so Qiuyue came over early to clean up. She didn't know how to face Zhang Shuo yet.
It's just that she didn't expect that before she could clean up when she arrived at Zhang's mansion, Zhang Shuo came back, soaking wet. When he saw Qiu Yue, he was very surprised, went to change his clothes, and walked out.
When she saw the package Qiu Yue was holding, she knew that she had come back to pack her things. Then he said, "Are you all packed?" β
Qiu Yue replied: "Well, it's already packed, I'll leave first." β
Zhang Shuo replied: "Precious!" Qiu Yue didn't say anything more and left.
The reason why Zhang Shuo came back was because he was on patrol in the city today, and there was a big stone beauty performance on a merchant ship, and he collided with a small boat in the river, and someone fell into the river. Zhang Shuo rushed to the rescue, wet his clothes, and came back to change, but he didn't expect to see Qiu Yue who came back to pack his things.
The woman's name was Akso, and she was the daughter of a wealthy merchant in the country of Dashi. This time I came to the Central Plains to follow my father to purchase silk. They feasted the silk merchants of the Central Plains and ate on the ship. Unexpectedly, I encountered a collision between two ships.
On the second day, Zhang Shuo entered the palace on the way, and the woman who was rescued by him yesterday came to thank him. Zhang Shuo only replied lightly: "No thanks!" And he left.
The beauty didn't expect to meet a closed door, she inquired about Zhang Shuo, and it was said that he was dumped by his fiancΓ©e.
Zhang Shuo has been in trouble recently, he was dumped by his fiancΓ©e, and Emperor Pei Shengyuan ignored him, he used to be a big celebrity around the emperor. So in the circle, many people have a lot of discussions about him.
"Have you heard? The celebrity next to the emperor, Zhang Shuo, was dumped by her fiancΓ©e. β
"Isn't it? People are proud of their careers and disappointed in love. But our Zhang Da is in charge, and it is a double failure in love and career. Hahaha"
"I don't know what kind of person his fiancΓ©e is, even Commander Zhang can't look down on her, and she dares to withdraw from the marriage after the invitation is sent out."
"It's called Qiuyue, I heard that it's a big celebrity next to the queen's mother."
"It's no wonder that her eyes are on the top of her head, I don't know who she has taken a fancy to, and she dumped Commander Zhang."
Then another voice was heard:
"Look at Commander Zhang's arrogant appearance, he doesn't move around with other officials on weekdays, and others don't succeed in scolding him, and he deserves to be dumped."
"Look at how arrogant he is in the future, he looks empty-eyed on weekdays, and in the end he was not dumped by a woman. Hahaha, it's really funny."
"Isn't it? Now no one in the circle is laughing at him behind his back, and he has become a laughing stock. β
"Now the emperor doesn't like to take care of him, see how he jumps in the future."
"Who can guess the emperor's thoughts, and maybe he will still be valued in the future. You said that if you go to him at this time, will it get twice the result with half the effort? β
"Come on! Just like him, how many people have sent him beautiful women, money, and houses before, but he has refused. I'm going to send it now, in case he loses his power in the future, and he can't be lost. β
"That's right, it's a pity that such an outstanding person was miserable by a woman......"
ββ¦β¦β
Akso listened to it and was very interested in Zhang Shuo, she liked such a man very much!
The person is handsome, the martial arts are high, and he doesn't women.
After listening to other people's discussions, he is not a person who goes with the flow.
I just happened to be injured by someone else's woman, what a good opportunity, just to take advantage of it.
Such a heroic character, and a woman can't look down on it, she doesn't understand it a little. When he saw that he had entered the palace, he went to his house and waited for him to return.
It was almost evening, and Zhang Shuo came back. Akso hurriedly caught up and said, "Lord Zhang, I have admired the name for a long time. Yesterday, thanks to Mr. Zhang's rescue, I specially prepared a thin gift, and asked Mr. Zhang to smile. β
Zhang Shuo didn't have time to pay attention to her, and said: "It's inconvenient to be polite." Butler, send-off! β
Akso is a big beauty in Dashiguo, and she is also a beautiful beauty in Dadu, how did she get to Zhang Shuo, he glanced at her and drove her away.
Hurriedly said: "Lord Zhang, I am from Akso in Dashi Country, and I came to the imperial capital to purchase silk, I don't know if I can invite Lord Zhang to have a meal to express my gratitude." β
Zhang Shuo said: "You're welcome, it's just a matter of saving you, you don't have to take it to heart." It's late, Miss Akso, please come back! β
Akso said, "Can you give me a ride?" β
βοΌβ Zhang Shuo said that he didn't understand, you came by yourself, and let me send it.
He knew this woman's tricks, but he was not interested in other women except Qiu Yue, so he directly refused: "Miss Akso, I'll let the guards send you back!" Please. Then he called two guards.
Unmoved by the beauty, Axo silently added another point in his heart.
Then go back first, anyway, she didn't leave so quickly, and it wasn't too late to come back in a few days.
Since he knew that Zhang Shuo caused Yang Cheng to fall off the cliff, Yang Mubai's whole person was not good. She couldn't figure out how Zhang Shuo, a good man like Zhang Shuo, would make such a big mistake because of jealousy. It hurt Yang Cheng so badly, and it also hurt Qiuyue.
She nestled in Pei Shengyuan's arms and sighed: "What do you say they will do in the future, the most pitiful thing is Yang Cheng, how much suffering he has endured, and Qiuyue was also miserable by Zhang Shuo." And Zhang Shuo himself also suffered the consequences, and in the end, it was empty, and he became the laughing stock of the whole city. β
Pei Shengyuan stroked her hair and said, "His love is corrupted in jealousy, harming others and corrupting himself. He thought that he could get Qiuyue in this way, but this kind of love made them all fall into a terrible whirlpool. β
Yang Mubai said: "What do you say you can do in the future? He has helped me a lot in the past. When I see him now, I feel uncomfortable. If you snub him like this now, and Qiu Yue will ignore him, he will definitely feel uncomfortable. β
Pei Shengyuan said: "Isn't this what he should bear? It is a great grace that I did not send him to prison for committing such a big mistake. Let him reflect on himself! β
