Chapter 51: A Life Like This
On the day of Zhao Nan's execution, the spring was cold, warm and cold, a little cold, and a little warm in early spring. The sky was languid blue, and the tired sun was shining, and the snow began to melt. The good season is coming, and the bustling crowd on the road has not stopped for anything.
Liuning and Tang Changyu fulfilled their promise to Zhao Nan, they didn't go to see him off for the last time, Tang Changyu couldn't imagine that cruel picture at all, the protagonist was his best friend who grew up together since childhood. I heard that he was calm and painless when he left. Wanyan lit a stick of incense for him, after all, she was sorry for him in this life, such a commemoration can be regarded as the last heart, and the rest is to repay in the next life.
Liuning accompanied Tang Changyu to take Zhao Nan away, I heard that he was very calm before leaving, and he didn't leave any last words, it seems that that on that day, he had finished what he wanted to say at the end. I heard that he still had a shallow smile when he left, which made Liu Ning and Tang Changyu especially dare not live up to Zhao Nan's last wish.
They took Zhao Nan to the foot of the concubine's tomb and erected a small tombstone for Zhao Nan. After completion, Liuning and Tang Changyu looked up at the tall and magnificent concubine tomb not far away, just like Zhao Nan was also looking up. He finally fulfilled his wish in this life, watching her from afar, protecting her, and always being by her side.
Back at home, Liuning and Tang Changyu's hearts were empty. In the past, when everyone walked, it was often lively here, gathering together to eat, play, chant and drink, so happy. Now, although no one can complain, but after all, there is no such lively fireworks atmosphere.
Changed.
Both of them felt uncomfortable, and there were no words of comfort. Liuning understands Tang Changyu, and Tang Changyu also understands Liuning, "A-Ning, let's get drunk together tonight, forget the past, and start a new life." ”
Liu Ning silently shook Tang Changyu's hand and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you, I'll accompany you no matter what." ”
The two sat together in the courtyard, where Tang Changyu specially designed for Liuning, in the early spring, there was already a murmuring water on the rockery, and the flowers in the yard were about to bloom, and there was a kind of coquettishness that wanted to talk about it. The paradise that was once left behind in a troubled world, in fact, there are very few opportunities for two people to stay here.
Liuning found his long-cherished daughter Hong from the wine cellar, moved a small stove out to warm the wine, and sat in the small gazebo. Tang Changyu saw this scene, his heartstrings trembled slightly, he imagined the scene countless times in his heart, and it was placed in front of him alive like this, and finally came to this point, but it was accompanied by too much sacrifice and blood.
Behind the original peace and tranquility is the boundless, turbulent darkness. And happiness is a pavilion built on bones and desolation, resplendent and unattainable, and what you need to pay when you walk into it is your own price. Now, he is on his way to happiness, and he does not dare to look back on the way he came.
Seeing Tang Changyu standing far away, Liu Ning looked at her with a smile, her eyes were the most familiar gentleness, Liu Ning was very glad that time had changed, and he was still the same person before. Liuning handed him a cup, Tang Changyu recognized it at a glance, this was when the two of them went to the market together, Liuning picked it at a glance, but it has not been used until now.
Tang Changyu drank all the contents of the cup, "I remember this cup, when you bought it, I still laughed at you, it didn't look like a girl's eyes." Liuning nodded and replied: "Yes, you said that the wave pattern on this cup is simple and rough, quite manly, not appreciated by ordinary girls, but this girl's vision is so unique and atmospheric, and, I know you like it too." ”
Tang Changyu lowered his head and smiled: "Of course, you are not an ordinary girl, you are my girl." ”
Liuning smiled a little embarrassedly, pushed Tang Changyu and said that he should not be too stinky and beautiful, Tang Changyu wrapped his arms around her shoulders, and took a belt into his arms, and Liuning leaned on Tang Changyu's shoulder. This familiar peace of mind and warmth welled up in Liuning's heart, she looked at the budding peach blossoms, and suddenly remembered that in the past, in the days of Turkic, it was like a world away.
Liu Ning felt a little, and after a glass of wine, he stabilized his mind slightly, Tang Changyu noticed that the mood of the person in his arms was a little wrong, and asked quite distressedly: "A-Ning, what are you thinking?" ”
"I'm thinking about the past, do you remember, our time." Liuning replied frankly.
Tang Changyu nodded, the memories between them, she naturally remembered. However, he no longer knows when to start. Their relationship starts from a glimpse on Chang'an Street, or from the first confrontation on the battlefield.
Liu Ning took out a flute out of nowhere, handed it to Tang Changyu and said: "At that time, you gave me a unique wedding and played a tune for me, which is very good, you said that you would blow it for me for a lifetime, give me another blow." ”
Tang Changyu took the flute, remembering that night when the two were in love, he hadn't told her what the song was singing, but he didn't say it, he was fulfilling his life's promise with his own actions. The sound of the flute sounded, like crying and complaining, like a melodious turn. To Tang Changyu's surprise, Liuning followed the sound of the flute and recited the lyrics.
I want to know you and live a long life.
The mountains are edgeless, the rivers are exhausted, the winter thunder is shaking, the summer rain and snow, the heaven and the earth are together, and they dare to be with the king.
Tang Changyu never told Liuning the name of this song, and Liuning's Chinese is not so good, and he is not proficient in these poems and songs. She must have put a lot of effort into finding this answer. Tang Changyu was a little distressed, just like she had suffered a lot in order to find him in the past. At first, it was Liuning who was braver than him, and when he was still scared, she had already done her best for their love, without regrets.
He could only try his best to make up for her in the days that followed. Love her with your own life, protect her, protect her for a lifetime, peace and joy.
After the song, the two of them stared into each other's eyes affectionately and said the same thing in unison.
"Heaven and earth are allies, the stars are mirrors, this life, this life, the next life, the next life, life after life, I, Tang Changyu, have to be with Liuning."
"Heaven and earth are allies, the stars are mirrors, this life and this life, the next life and the next life, life and life, I stay in Ning, and I have to be with Tang Changyu."
It was a vow made on their real wedding night, and they would embrace each other tightly, and their hearts were connected in this moment. Although they have gone through too much chaos to change the reality beyond recognition, despite the turbulence of the world and the unpredictable road ahead, they still have each other in the past, and they still have the deep love they had before, unswerving to death.
Such a lifetime is enough.
