Chapter 175: The Woman (Part II)
Chang'an at the time of the unitary period is still full of people coming and going, and as for the desertion, it does not exist.
The colorful light of the lights of each prefecture illuminates the courtyards, including the street in front of the mansion, which is equally brilliant and wonderful.
Today's Bai family is destined to be sleepless, so the lights of the Bai family illuminate a large area around it brighter.
Cornices, stone lions, steps...... All kinds of regular objects are projecting different images everywhere, layered on top of each other, and the shadows are longing.
Between the light and darkness, there are the occasional sedan chairs and BMW carved cars, including passers-by in different clothes, the young man standing in place with a horse, and the woman sitting there setting up a stall alone are not very eye-catching, but they are destined to be unique.
For a period of time after Guan Kuo said such a word, no one passed by, and the figures were all in the distance of the night.
Guan Kuo was smiling and waiting for the woman's response, but the woman did not respond.
After a while, the woman finally sneered and said, "The son of the old thief is not dead yet?" ”
Guan Kuo still smiled: "No, you are wrong. ”
"Isn't it?" The woman raised her eyebrows, and when she heard Guan Kuo say that she was Guan Qinghe's son, her attitude changed significantly, and she became quite unkind.
"Of course not, I am the son of Guan Qinghe and the son of Guan Xiangye, as for the 'old thief' you said, I'm sorry, I don't recognize this person."
The woman still sneered, but did not speak immediately.
Before that night, people may have secretly criticized Guan Qinghe's obvious behavior of losing the glory of the Li family, then after that night, because of the trend of public opinion, the surname "Guan" became shameful.
That kind of hatred comes naturally, people are not only rational animals, but also emotional animals, and many times, they don't care whether the person they hate has caused them any harm, they just go with the flow and hate.
Your Majesty is just mediocre, hot-headed, and has indiscriminately killed many courtiers who should not be killed, but the entire Northern Tang Dynasty does not seem to have a devastating blow because of this, and the lives of the people are still the same, but because of the trend that has emerged from those courtiers who have been harmed, the people who have not been harmed have also secretly spoken ill of Your Majesty.
There's no clear right or wrong here, it's just a bit interesting.
"Are you really Guan Kuo?" The woman stared at him.
"Yes."
"It's surprising that you're not dead."
"I was just sent to the frontier, why did I die?"
"The sabre of the abrupt man is not long-sighted."
"A Tang Dynasty man would actually expect his country's soldiers to be hacked to death by the enemy, which is really suspected of betraying the country."
"I'm just an ordinary woman, a hopeless woman, and I don't know what you're going to do here."
"I'm just an ordinary soldier, oh no, not long ago, I seemed to have been a captain of Zhaowu, and as for me, it was because I thought you were interesting, I thought you were unusual, and I felt that you were doing something not very good."
The woman's eyes were filled with great anger, and her eyes were full of hatred, and she stood up and leaned her face to Guan Kuo.
could feel the dangerous aura on her body, but Guan Kuo looked at her calmly and did not flinch at all.
"Not so good, people like you do more than we do." She almost gritted her teeth.
Guan Kuo finally didn't want to say anything more, he took a step back, and then silently stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Shangfu.
He was staring into the woman's eyes.
Immediately after, he pointed to the Dragon Mansion again, and he also didn't say anything.
Finally, he pointed to the White House.
He put his hand down and nodded.
"It's Baifu, right?" He asked.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Woman.
"I don't know what's going on between you and Baifu," Guan Kuo said, "I'm nothing now, and I can't help you, but I can tell you good news today." ”
Guan Kuo paused.
"Baifu is planted, I don't know exactly what happened, it should be very painful to think about it, but I can tell you happily: I did it."
After speaking, he turned around, straddled Qin Kill, led without a trace, and walked forward.
The light in the woman's eyes continued to flicker, and her lips trembled a little, until Guan Kuo came four or five feet away, and when the light and shadow became more and more blurred, he finally spoke:
"You wait."
Guan Kuo turned his head and smiled at her, of course there was no Bai Meisheng, but it was enough to make the woman feel a little trembling in a trance.
……
……
It's a simple, but very clean house.
The light of the fire was faint and could only illuminate a small area, despite the small size of the room.
"You should not be very old, thirty or forty years old, but now you look like an old woman."
Guan Kuo still straddled Qin Kill, but without a trace walked around the house by himself, he sat upright at the wooden table, looked at the woman, and said.
The wooden table is probably dark brown because of the passage of time, and the veins on it are already blurred.
"I still don't understand, how do you see it." The woman's expression was a little lonely, and at the same time a little apprehensive, especially wary and curious.
"There are some forces in the world, above the body, those powers are very inexplicable, but they are real, I can only feel some very vaguely, but they are enough for me to see your true age."
"You don't look like the rumored Guan Kuo, not like you at all, I think you're lying to me."
"What do I get by lying to you?" Guan Kuo laughed.
"It could be a benefit I didn't think of."
The woman pondered for a moment, and then replied to Guan Kuo's previous question: "I am old, on the one hand, probably because I have been exhausted by my experiences, and on the other hand, only in this way that I will not be recognized. ”
"Then why did you believe in me and bring me here?" Guan Kuo asked.
"I don't care whose son you are, whether you are in charge of Kuo or someone else, I only care about one thing, that is, the life and death of the beasts of the Bai family. As for whether I believe you or not, I don't have a choice, because no matter what, I don't know how you see it, anyway, you have already seen that I have a relationship with the Bai family, and I can't hide from it, unless I can kill you," she looked at Qin Shu, who was guarding her broad waist, "For the things I have been pursuing, I won't care about my life and death, my body is getting worse and worse, I may not have time to live, I have lost everything, nothing, I don't have time to wait, so I can only fight for all hope, Even those hopes are dangerous. ”
