Chapter 142: Lotus Pond Heart
In an instant, many people in the courtyard left, becoming deserted.
Emperor Hui finally relieved himself a little from the turmoil and fright of the day and night; A pair of eyes poked out from behind Sikong Jue, looked at Sikong Huang lying alone in a pool of blood in the courtyard with pity, and sighed slightly.
Seeing this, Sikong Jue immediately ordered his subordinates to pull Sikong Huang's body out quickly and hang it at the gate of Luoyang City to show the public.
The remaining soldiers in the courtyard listened to the order and dragged Sikong Huang's body out of the door.
For a while, only Mu Yu, Sikong Jue, Emperor Hui, Mu Wanzhen, Shi Shao and a dozen or so black shadow guards were left in the courtyard.
Mu Yu looked at the ruined scene in the turbulent backyard, thinking of the fireballs flying in the narrow alleys in the raging flames, the miserable screams of Bai Xue Valley and the burning of the Ming Ghost Senior Brother still in front of him, and his heart seemed to be hollowed out.
Suddenly, hearing the sound of brisk footsteps, Chi Lu rushed through the door and came to Mu Yu's side.
Chi Lu grabbed Mu Yu's arm, shook her with some concern for a moment, and saw that her expression was still blank, so he gave an order to the more than ten black shadow guards in the courtyard, and the black shadow guards jumped on the roof and disappeared into the air.
Chi Lu and Sikong Jue whispered for a while, Sikong Jue nodded in agreement, and Shi Shao escorted Emperor Hui away.
Chi Lu took Mu Yu and his party flew out of the place where Sikong Huang died, and landed in the middle of the lotus pond in the Imperial Garden.
Mu Yu's expression was indifferent, looking around, seeing the tranquility of the lotus pond, the half-human-high lotus leaves blocked the outside scene, blocking all the turmoil outside, and couldn't help shaking his head, and had an illusion: as if the whole day experience was not real.
Chi Lu and Mu Mo sat in the boat opposite each other, frowning at her and shouting, "Mu ......"
Mu Muran raised his eyes, stunned, and was silent for a long time before he came back to his senses and slowly opened his eyes to look at the lake.
When the sun is in the sky, the clouds are changing, Mu Yu huddles his knees and curls up on the boat, sitting from noon to sunset.
Finally, in the evening, he slowly asked, "You say, should I come to Kyoto for revenge?" ”
"Mu ......" Chi Lu frowned, he was originally a sneer, but he didn't know how to explain it at the moment.
Mu Yu sighed, looked at the lake, and the picture that had been circling in his mind all day gradually became a clear thought, and confided word by word: "Since the death of my master, I have been holding my breath in my heart, wanting to kill Sikong Dong and avenge the death of the Mo family's brother in vain, however, in the past five or six years, I have made sacrifices, patience, and calculations, and sometimes I have even forgotten why I did these things." There have been a few times when I have run into Sikong Dong...... I turned out to be horrible to find that I don't hate anymore. Usually because he only cares about hiding his identity and avoiding him, his hatred is hidden in his heart, and he is silently dismembered and dissipated by time. ”
Mu Yu said, thinking of the turmoil that has been promoted all the way since he entered Kyoto, and how many innocent people have been pulled into the whirlpool, he pulled the corners of his mouth like self-deprecation, hung his head and shook his head: "I lost my direction at all, I lost my way in revenge, I don't understand why I want to take revenge, what revenge I want to avenge at all, I have been recklessly involved in one battle after another, dragging the queen into turmoil again and again...... There are also green valerian, red knotweed, hibiscus, Du Ruo, Spearuran ......"
Mu Yu was like a fish in his throat, helplessly buried his head in his hand, and fell into extreme self-blame: "When I saw Sikong Jue kill Sikong Huang today, I couldn't believe that such an innocent person can become so conceited and violent, just as a person like Sikong Huang can become so greedy...... How can power make a person so unrecognizable? ”
Mu Mo took a deep breath, suddenly pulled his head out of his hand, raised his eyes to look at the air, and said slowly: "I'm tired, I'm tired of the endless power struggle in Luoyang, I think that planning to attack the palace with Sikong Jue today is no different from the essence of Sikong Dong leading the army to crusade against the Mo family." For the soldiers who died in vain in this palace riot, I am also their enemy. ”
"Mu ......" Chi Lu looked at the girl in front of him with some distress, but he didn't know how to persuade him.
At a young age, she experienced many things that she shouldn't have experienced at her age.
All the hardships, what kind of difficult transformation will she go through?
Chi Lu thought of the taciturn and moody master in Liangzhou, and all the changes in his temperament also started from the turmoil between Prince Rui and Mrs. Zhengshi. Now, the resentment he is holding in his heart, is it revenge that can relieve his anger? Or will giving up make him feel relieved? Chi Lu didn't dare to speculate, nor did he dare to make judgments for him easily.
Just like today, he didn't know how to persuade Mu Wu......
Mu Mo was silent, and after a moment of silence around him, he sighed and said frankly: "Seriously, today, even if Sikong Dong is really dead, I may not be very happy; I'm tired, I want to go back to Liangzhou, I want to go back to Baixu Valley, I want to rebuild the Mo family, I don't want to get caught up in the power struggle in Luoyang anymore, and ignorantly help this city fall into catastrophe. ”
"Mu Yu", Chi Lu tentatively stretched out his hand, paused for a moment in mid-air, patted Mu Wu's shoulder, and persuaded, "Don't think about so many things, the prince said, when Sikong Huang's matter is over, no matter what the situation in Luoyang is, I will take you back." Now, if you are willing to go back to Liangzhou, that's naturally good. Your junior brother Ming Ghost hopes that, and the prince also needs you. ”
"Lord Wang...... Need me? Mu Yu looked at Chi Lu with some astonishment.
Chi Lu hesitated, took out a blood-soaked sandalwood magnolia hairpin from his arms, and handed it to Mu Wu: "Before coming to Luoyang on this trip, the prince asked me to bring you a birthday gift that he cut with his own hands, you smell it." ”
Seeing this, Mu Yu held a wooden hairpin of the same shape as Sikong Heng's first gift, and his fingers trembled slightly.
The years are in a hurry, the white horse has passed, and in a blink of an eye, in Luoyang, he has been in Luoyang for almost three years.
Mu Mo gently leaned his nose to the magnolia hairpin, wanting to smell the calming fragrance of magnolia from the endless blood; However, a strange and rich aroma came to my face, and my heart couldn't help but move.
That smell...... It's angelica! Sikong Heng...... It is the first time that such a clear "angelica" message has been issued......
"Mu Yu?" Chi Lu saw Mu Yu's thoughts drifting out, so he called softly.
Mu Yu came back to his senses and looked at Chi Lu, the smell of angelica still lingered on the tip of his nose.
Chi Lu looked at Mu Wu, but he couldn't bear it but had to persuade: "The palace is still dangerous, and before I return to Liangzhou, I still have to deal with what I should deal with." We've all been there for the day, and we need to go back and put some finishing touches. ”
"Hmm", Mu Mo took the wooden hairpin into his arms, thinking of the chaotic scene in the palace before leaving Sikong Huang's bedroom, and Mu Wanzhen's shocked expression, he slowly stood up from the lotus boat, "I have to go back and do some more things before I can leave with confidence." ”
Chi Lu saw that Mu Wu's mood had recovered a little, so he relieved himself a little and helped Mu Wu leave the boat and go ashore.
Mu Yu said goodbye to Chi Lu, first went back to Mu Wanzhen's dormitory, asked around, and found that Mu Wanzhen did not return to the palace, but was connected to Emperor Hui's dormitory Daye Hall by Sikong Jue, so he quickly went to Daye Hall.
