Chapter 262: Doubts
Rong Li'er shrunk and didn't dare to speak, Feng Xiwen looked at the two of them, and asked again: "Let me ask again, who is it that saw me kill Li Chuan last night?" ”
Wang Chengnan subconsciously grabbed Rong Li'er's hand tightly, her thoughts were chaotic, but Rong Li'er glanced at it, and suddenly said, "It's me." ”
"Oh?"
Wang Chengnan was taken aback, but Rong Li'er had already continued: "Why are you ...... Know me? ”
Feng Xiwen's expression was intriguing, and he said: "The eldest lady of the Rong family, the cause of death is strange, and the day of the burial is known to Beijing, even though I was still in prison at the time, I had to be alarmed by such a huge momentum." ”
"Then why don't you believe that I'm dead?"
Rong Li'er spoke in a small voice, Feng Xiwen lowered her head again, and made a picture of listening to it to hear clearly.
This look is actually a bit funny, Feng Xiwen looked like some tamed behemoth in front of her, hanging down his huge head.
But it was just an illusion for a moment, Feng Xiwen squinted his eyes, his eyebrows were sharp, and said, "You come with me." ”
Rong Li'er walked slowly, Feng Xiwen glanced back impatiently, grabbed her wrist and strode back. Seeing this, Feng Xiwen's soldiers raised their voices and coaxed, and Wang Chengnan immediately rushed forward to stop him, but two soldiers came over and grabbed his shoulders, unable to move at all.
"You're back!" Wang Chengnan said sharply: "Rong Li'er, you come back to me!" Like a dog with its tail stepped on, she barked angrily at every sight in front of her: "Let me go!" I don't care about you! Feng Xiwen! I was the one who saw you kill last night! It's me! Don't touch her! ”
Rong Li'er paused, turned around and made a shushing gesture, but before she could finish the movement, Feng Xiwen impatiently pulled her, and she staggered and was pulled away.
Wang Chengnan didn't remember what happened very clearly, she roared hoarsely, but her body couldn't move a step forward, and the soldiers separated like a tide, and closed after Feng Xiwen walked in with Rong Li'er, and their eyes were all mocking and pitying. In the end, someone slashed her with a knife in the back of the head, and Wang Chengnan finally fell softly.
When Wang Chengnan woke up, it was dawn, there were a bunch of big men around her, with strange eyes, she sat up, and found that the army had already been stationed, and she didn't enter the tent, I don't know who laid a piece of skin on the ground for her, she just lay on it, and when she woke up, her hands and feet were cold and her back hurt.
She scrambled to her feet and asked the people around her who were looking at the lively expressions: "Where's the pity?!" ”
The soldiers laughed lowly, and someone shouted: "Accompany our general in the tent!" Didn't come out in one night! ”
The laughter was presumptuous, Wang Chengnan felt that the world was spinning, she looked around to look for a tent where there might be Rong Li'er, one of them seemed to have a higher status than the surrounding soldiers who were watching the excitement, and the person was also tall, with thick eyebrows and square face, and coughed outside. The soldiers immediately reined in: "General." ”
The general took a dry ration and threw it in front of her, saying, "Don't listen to their nonsense, the general doesn't do such things." ”
After a pause, he added, "At least don't do this kind of thing in the middle of a war." ”
Wang Chengnan immediately said, "I want to see Li'er." ”
"Spare your life is to pity you." The general spoke like Feng Xiwen and could not refuse: "The general is in a bad mood, don't look for death." ”
Wang Chengnan had no choice, she couldn't follow the ghosts, but she had to follow these unreasonable ruffians.
Rong Li'er never showed up, even when she was in a hurry, Wang Chengnan had to walk in the pile of men, walking to death or alive, sometimes there were people around her who told jokes to her, Wang Chengnan even pulled her face and ignored it.
She silently counted the days in her heart, and on the eighth day, Rong Li'er finally appeared, she was still delicate, riding a relatively short horse, walking side by side with Feng Xiwen, and after walking not far, she frowned. Feng Xiwen leaned over to ask her, Wang Chengnan looked at her hostilely, and Feng Xiwen called another person to pull the horse for her.
But not long after leaving, Rong Li'er still didn't feel very comfortable, Feng Xiwen always looked a little impatient, frowned, and got off the horse. The team was stopped, and Feng Xiwen asked his subordinates to bring a soft cushion, and replaced it with a horse with strong feet, and helped Rong Li'er up.
Rong Li'er was reluctant and complained quietly.
Feng Xiwen thought she was squeamish and annoying, and dragged her and said, "You don't want to ride a horse, but you are willing to follow the stupid walk?" What a habitual problem! ”
Rong Li'er also frowned and said, "My leg hurts." ”
"What does it hurt when you put on a soft cushion?" Feng Xiwen said: "If you don't want to sit down, go down and follow them!" ”
Rong Li'er's eyes lit up, and she looked in Wang Chengnan's direction, muttering, "I didn't want to go with you." ”
Feng Xiwen tugged on the reins, held the reins of Rong Li'er's horse and his own, turned over his own horse, and said coldly: "You want to be beautiful!" ”
General Feng's words don't count, Rong Li'er has no choice, she pursed her lips at Wang Chengnan's worried gaze, looked back helplessly, and comforted her with her eyes.
Wang Chengnan couldn't see what she looked like clearly, and she turned back three times in one step, but she felt a little different.
In fact, if Feng Xiwen suddenly fell in love with Rong Li'er and treated her as a pastime on the road, it would not be unusual, after all, it was boring along the way, and Rong Li'er's obedient and delicate temperament has always been a canary that people love to raise.
But Wang Chengnan knows Rong Lian'er, she is well-behaved many times, but under that soft and docile skin, she also has an inconspicuous backbone. A truly tame and timid person is a person who dares to fake his death and run crazy with Wang Chengnan.
If Feng Xiwen was forcing her, Rong Li'er would definitely not have this attitude at this moment, she had an unexpectedly fierce temper, and she could set fire to the camp.
But Rong Li'er still looks very peaceful now, but she doesn't look very honest.
What did Feng Xiwen say to her, and persuaded her in just a few days?
Or was it actually Rong Li'er who persuaded Feng Xiwen to keep the lives of the two of them, and also earned the privilege of riding a horse for himself?
As soon as this thought came out, Wang Chengnan shook his head a little ridiculously, this little sister is the most ignorant, she has almost nothing to do except for her appearance and good temper.
How could she possibly do such a trick?
And Wang Chengnan, a person who spied on everything that happened that night and was very likely to expose Feng Xiwen's purpose, why would he leave her life?
This actually meant to please Rong Lian'er, but he didn't have to do it at all, he forced Rong Lian'er to be as easy as pinching an ant to death, and he couldn't care about the joy of a little canary at all.
Unless Feng Xiwen's love for Rong Li'er is really to the point where he is willing to please her and take care of her.
At this time, Wang Chengnan had to open his mouth to the soldiers around him, and said a few empty words awkwardly before getting to the point and asking, "Who is your general?" ”
Feng Xiwen is very bad-tempered, although his team is not strictly disciplined on the outside, and he does everything to burn and loot in a place, but that is actually the consequence that he can guide, internally, if he does not abide by the rules he set, the severity of the punishment is simply terrifying.
The soldiers were not allowed to talk casually during the procession, but they said a few words in private, which was not too much, and it was nothing.
Those soldiers were a little surprised when they saw Wang Chengnan taking the initiative to ask.
This woman named Wang Chengnan was able to keep up with them after eight days of high-intensity marching, not to mention that she still had a little look. Although such a gesture seems insignificant under her hard attitude, it will always make people feel her unique feminine heroism in a certain moment.
Talking to some people to chat and relieve boredom, most people will not refuse, no matter how bad her attitude is, everyone here also understands that she is just a decent-looking prisoner. The victor is always a little tolerant of the prisoners.
So a tall and thin soldier beside her replied to her: "Our general is a ruthless man, and he will not be polite to women." ”
The people around looked as usual and nodded casually.
That's right, herein lies the problem. These men who have been in the barracks all the year round, especially those who are ruthless and high-ranking people like Feng Xiwen, when they don't pity women, they really don't treat them as people at all.
So why did he show such accommodation to Rong Li'er?
Wang Chengnan brought Rong Li'er out of Kyoto, they grew up together since childhood, Wang Chengnan knew very well that Rong Li'er himself had no means, and there was no Beijing. The Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was once illustrious, but now it is probably lackluster.
Rong Li'er has nothing to plot about, except for her appearance.
But......
Many children from poor families always have an indescribable obsession with the daughter of the family, and in the change of power in Kyoto, there are always many promotions from the poor family and the decline of the family.
These high-ranking officials from poor families are also very good at finding ways to get those young ladies who have fallen from the branches into their hands, whether they quietly marry concubines, or if the young ladies are sold as concubines and sent to those poor parties, there are always a considerable number of young ladies in the family after the fall of the family, and their whereabouts are unclear.
This has gradually even become a tacit stereotype, and there was a family of daughters in the previous dynasty, who was sold to the new officials, starting from a concubine, and gradually pressed on the head of the wife with love, and finally took advantage of her husband's power to avenge her family. But after all, this kind of thing depends on the right time and place, and more girls die so inexplicably, or they will be concubines and maids for the rest of their lives, and they will never be able to turn over again.
Wang Chengnan then asked about Feng Xiwen's net worth: "How did he become a general?" ”
