Chapter 193: A Decision (1)
But under the oppressive atmosphere, their silence still seemed a little strange.
"What do you have in mind?"
On the eleventh day, Ji Ru finally spoke.
There was still sadness on her face, faint, not deep.
She is still beautiful, and she is still the head of the three beauties of Nanwu, but if Nanwu is completely destroyed, what is the significance of this name?
"I thought about it a lot." Jin An turned his head sideways and looked at her, with no special expression, very calm.
"So?"
"I'm thinking, I'm a native of Dawu, a Duke of Lin'an, and a son of the Jin family, and I have a false name as the first person of the younger generation of Dawu, but for the sake of the so-called 'ideal', for the life of Xianyun Yehe, let go of all my sense of responsibility and let it go, is it appropriate?"
Ji Ru stared at him.
"I'm just a weak woman, and you're different, since we're different, there's no need for you to choose to wander the world like me."
"So, in fact, you've helped me think a lot over the years?" Jin An suddenly smiled.
Although the smile disappeared in a flash, it has to be said that it did exist.
Ji Ru also smiled reluctantly.
"Go ahead and let me hear more of what you think."
"In the past, I thought that some things, as long as I did them myself, I could get them, regardless of other things around me, but in the past few days, I have been wondering: Is my comfort and leisure related to the strength of Da Wu, is it because Da Wu is there, I can accompany you to the end of the world without worries and worries?"
"This point, maybe you won't know until Li Zenan captures Lin'an." Ji Ru blinked her eyes wide.
"Are you trying to make me bet?" Jin An also winked at her.
"Can you afford to gamble?" Ji asked.
"I'm too old to gamble."
Jin An seemed to sigh, but the most sincere smile that was different from before bloomed on his face, as bright as a rainbow after the rain.
"So, have you figured it out and made up your mind to go?" In Ji Ruye's tone and look, there was reluctance, but there was also joy and relief.
Jin An walked over and rested his hand on her head, as if hesitating.
Ji Ru closed her eyes.
Jin An smiled and touched it gently.
"I haven't figured it out yet, but it's almost there, give me a few more days."
After a pause, he said again: "If I leave, then take good care of myself, I must be happy, eat more meat, and when I come back, I must see a white and chubby little princess." ”
"Die!" Ji Ru punched him in the chest.
……
……
It's another fresh morning.
The morning light broke, and under the first light, a faint white mist seemed to rise on the earth.
It was water vapor from Lin'an.
Song Deping, the head of the Song family, had already sat in the secret room half an hour ago.
In the secret room were all his cronies.
In view of the attacks that the Northern Tang would launch at any time and place, they were restless, and the topics of discussion were nothing more than two - to gather forces to resist the Northern Tang, or to gather forces to protect their assets and flee.
Of course, it is more inclined to the latter.
Even Jinling did not hold it, and Lin'an's scattered sand fought on its own, which was tantamount to suicide.
The assets of the Song family, especially those that can be taken away, are being liquidated, servants and maids, etc., the dismissal of dismissal, and the dismissal of those who can stay.
Song Deping had some connections in the Northern Tang Dynasty, and he was ready to look for an opportunity to take refuge and wait until the battle was over, and then talk about the comeback.
As they discussed the most important place with serious expressions, the bell in the chamber rang abruptly.
That was the embodiment of the old housekeeper of the Song Mansion transmitting a signal to the secret room.
The discussion stopped, Song Deping looked at these cronies of his own, and said:
"That's it for today, and we'll discuss it tomorrow."
He stood up, walked to the door of the chamber, pulled down the mechanism, and the door of the chamber "clicked" up.
The sky outside was bright enough, and the light made the people inside squint their eyes.
The old housekeeper bowed respectfully, and reported to Song Deping: "The head of the family, the Lin'an Mansion has summoned all the heads of the family to come over, and all the heads and faces, especially those with profound backgrounds, have been invited over, and it is estimated that it is related to the Northern Tang Dynasty." ”
"Lin'an Mansion?" Song Deping was thoughtful.
As the head of the Song family, of course, he has a very close relationship with the Lin'an Mansion, because of the Northern Tang Dynasty, all the big people want to protect their own interests, and the Mansion and the major families have also discussed many times, and there is no surprise when it is convened this time.
"Okay, prepare the horses, prepare the cart, I'll go over now." Song Deping commanded.
The old butler bowed and retreated.
When Song Deping changed his clothes and walked to the door of Zhu, the old housekeeper had already arranged everything, the groom was sitting outside the carriage, and the entourage was also waiting there.
Song Deping nodded secretly, the old housekeeper was older than him, and he was his father's right-hand man, and he was still trustworthy in his life.
The carriage followed the street all the way to the direction of the government, because of the pressure of the Northern Tang Dynasty, there were not many people walking out of Lin'an City, which could be said to be extremely rare. However, it also brought convenience to the carriage.
When he came to Fan's house, he saw that Fan Taixi's carriage was also waiting in front of the mansion, and it seemed that this old guy was about to leave.
Because he was eager to know what message the government wanted to convey, he didn't wait for the head of the Fan family, and walked by himself.
After the time of the two incense sticks, the Lin'an Mansion was in sight, and there were a lot of carriages parked outside the mansion, and it seemed that some people had already arrived first.
Song Deping looked out of the carriage window, and finally fixed his eyes on one of his entourage.
This entourage came to Lin'an eight days ago, and his Hunan flavor was obviously from the land of the two lakes.
As a sturdy young man who begged for a living, he didn't think too much, now that the pressure of the Northern Tang Dynasty was pressing, the Song family was short of people, so he naturally accepted the other party and incorporated it into the Song family's armed forces, preparing to escort the people and assets of the Song family out of Lin'an at that time.
But gradually, he found that the other party was a little unusual, there seemed to be a lot of things hidden in his eyebrows and eyes, he saw people very accurately, and the young man was obviously a life with a story.
He valued the other party more and more, so he finally made him his own retinue.
This young man never told about his past, and it could be said that he was secretive, only knowing that his name was Jiang Tunshui.
Song Deping took his thoughts away from Jiang Tunshui's body and was pulled out of the carriage by the coachman.
Raising my head and breathing in the fresh morning air, my nerves were a little looser.
