Chapter 81: Temptation
Qingzhou thought of Li Yunzhao, remembered the words Li Yunzhao said to herself when she was in the palace, her heart suddenly pinched, and she only whispered; "But, Your Majesty"
Listening to Qingzhou mention Li Yunzhao, Wan Chongshan's heart sank, the gentleness at the corners of his lips gradually disappeared, and his anger flashed, he held Qingzhou's shoulder and said to her; "You don't have to think about anything else, just raise the baby here with peace of mind, waiting for me to pick you up, you know?"
Qingzhou didn't want him to worry, so he only suppressed everything and said softly to Wanzhong Mountain; "I'll take care of myself, and I'll take care of the kids, don't worry about me."
Wan Chongshan stretched out his hand and slowly touched her stomach, even if He Yunli and the military doctor were all left by Qingzhou's side, they were still not at ease.
"Master Hou, it's not too early." Suddenly, a voice sounded outside the house, and he spoke to Wanzhong Mountain very respectfully.
When Wan Chongshan heard this, he looked at the sky, knowing that he couldn't stay any longer, he looked at Qingzhou, and saw that Qingzhou was also looking at him.
Wan Chongshan wrapped his arms around her waist, held her in his arms, and imprinted a kiss on her lips. "Go ahead, be careful not to get yourself hurt."
"I know." Wan Chongshan held her hand and kissed it on the lips, his palm stroked Qingzhou's lower abdomen, he took one last look at Qingzhou, suppressed the reluctance in his heart, and finally got up and strode away without looking back.
Border, Liao State Barracks.
When Wanzhongshan returned to the main tent, he saw that Nalan was already waiting there.
"Why is the princess here?" Wan Chongshan frowned slightly when he saw her.
Nalan stood up, she looked at the man in front of her, her eyes were bloodshot, and she had not slept all night.
"The horse didn't return all night, I don't know where it went?" Nalan said softly, and walked closer towards Wanzhong Mountain.
Wan Chongshan did not speak.
Nalan's eyes were swept by a sad color, and Wan Chongshan stood clearly in front of her, but he was still indifferent from thousands of miles away, he was so close, but so far away.
"Father Khan, I'll cover it up for you, but can you tell me the truth?" Nalan met Wan Chongshan's eyes, and his voice trembled slightly.
"What does the princess want to ask?" Wan Chongshan also looked at Nalan's eyes, Nalan has the blood of the Hu people, her eyes are different from the softness of the Han girl, but faintly reveal the meaning of blue, when looking at people, it seems to be able to hook away people's hearts together.
"You've got it all, haven't you?" Nalan asked in a low voice; "The woman on the execution ground that day is your sweetheart, isn't she?"
"When she appeared, your eyes already told me that the sword spike and veil on your body were all hers." Nalan's voice was bitter, but the smile on the corner of her lips was so sad and beautiful, her eyes were filled with tears, and she said word by word; "Wan Chongshan, you can hide it from everyone, even me, I was deceived by you at the beginning, I, like my father Khan, thought you forgot everything, but do you know? Your eyes can't fool anyone, and when I look at the way you look at her, I know that you always remember. Your eyes reveal your thoughts. ”
Wan Chongshan listened to Nalan's words, neither admitting nor denying it.
"I know that there is a huge disparity between you and me, Da Liao and Da Qi are mortal enemies, in your eyes, I am the daughter of Yelu Longo, your enemy, I also know, I should guard against you, detain you, I should tell my father Khan everything, I should prevent my father Khan from making you a general, but I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything"
When Nalan said this, there were finally big tears falling down his eyes, their Daliao women have rarely shed tears, and Nalan has an honorable status, since he was a child, he has been to be windy and rainy, this time he cried so much in front of a man, it was the first time in his life.
"You're right, I remember everything." Wan Chongshan's voice was calm, and he said a word to her.
"Who is she?" Nalan asked, "Is she your wife?" ”
Although Nalan was in Daliao, he had also heard many anecdotes about Wanzhong Mountain, and knew that his wife was three years older than him, and the woman she saw that day looked to be no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, and it was obvious that she was not his wife.
And she had also heard the rumors about Wanzhong Mountain and the light boat. Thinking about it at this time, she guessed the identity of Qingzhou.
Wan Chongshan didn't answer, he looked at Nalan's tears, and finally spoke; "Nalan, you are the princess of Da Liao, I am the courtier of Da Qi, between you and me, it will never be possible."
Nalan grabbed his arm, and almost laid down all his dignity and said to him; "Wanzhongshan, you take me away, we have forgotten about Da Liao and Da Quan, you can go with me to the grassland to ride horses and graze, I can also go to the Central Plains with you, I will no longer be the princess of Liao, and you will not be a courtier of Daqi"
Wan Chongshan didn't wait for her to finish speaking, he interrupted her, "Nalan, it's me Wan Chongshan who took advantage of you, you can tell your father Khan about this, as for the rest, there is no need to say more." ”
After Wan Chongshan finished speaking, he withdrew his arm and opened Nalan's hand.
Nalan took two steps back, she looked at the man in front of her in distraction, and muttered; "Is it because of her?"
Wan Chongshan didn't speak, only turned around and wanted to leave the tent.
Nalan looked at his back and remembered that day, her father Khan sent her to Daqi and her relatives, in his tent, she had deliberately seduced, and the man was like this today, leaving her with a decisive back.
"Ten Thousand Mountains!" She called out to him.
"Isn't it good for you to stay in our Daliao as a colt?" Nalan walked up to him, her tears had stopped, and she only looked at the man's eyes, every word was very clear; "Our Da Liao soldiers and horses are strong, enough to help you go all the way south, you can win the splendid rivers and mountains of Daqi, according to your ability, why bother to be subordinate to others and become a courtier of Daqi? With the support of Da Liao, you can completely replace it and go to the top of the world! ”
After Nalan finished speaking, a ghostly light flashed in Wanzhongshan's heart, and he didn't say a word, just looked at her like that.
"As for my Da Liao, my father Khan only has me and my brother Wang's two children, my brother Wang is your defeated generalissimo, and my father Khan has made you the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, when you take Daqi, you can command millions of soldiers and horses in the world, whether it is Daqi or Da Liao, they are all under your feet, why should you go against my Da Liao for the emperor of Qi country? What can you do even if you defeat my Da Liao? Your emperor will be suspicious of you, guard against you, and even kill you, such a monarch, why should you die for him? ”
Nalan kept looking at Wan Chong Shan's eyes, not even letting go of the slightest change in his face, she slowly wrapped around Wan Chong Shan's waist, every word seemed to be bewitching, enough to make people lose their armor.
"Wan Chongshan, you stay in Da Liao, I know, she is not your wife, she is your nephew's daughter-in-law, you are in love with your nephew, this may be a felony in your Da Qi, but in our Da Liao, it is the most common, many of my father Khan's wives and concubines are my grandfather's concubines, our Da Liao has never been as particular as your Han people, you stay, you can keep her by your side, isn't this good?"
Wan Chongshan clasped Nalan's hand, and he stared at her, his eyes were very dark.
Seeing this, Nalan continued; "I'll treat her well, I'll never bully her, I'll treat her as my sister and take care of you with her, isn't that enough?"
"Say no more!" Wan Chongshan scolded in a low voice.
"Wanzhong Mountain" Nalan wanted to say more.
Wan Chongshan made a gesture that made her stop the rest of her words, his eyes were deep, and he only said a word; "You make me think about it."
When Nalan heard this, her heart was suddenly full of joy, she didn't say anything more, only nodded.
Wan Chongshan didn't look at her again, and strode away from the main tent.
Great Qi, Jingshi, Imperial Palace.
"Your Majesty, this is General Luo's urgent report from the front line eight hundred miles back to Beijing, please take a look." Gonggong Cao trotted all the way and presented an urgent letter in front of Li Yunzhao with both hands.
Li Yunzhao immediately took it, opened it and looked at it, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Your Majesty, but what happened to the front?" Seeing Li Yunzhao's face change, Gonggong Cao was also distracted.
"Wanzhong Mountain" Li Yunzhao slowly stood up, tightened his fingers slightly, and pinched the letter.
"Your Majesty, Lord Wanhou" Gonggong Cao also had a thought in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.
"He turned his back on Daqi." Li Yunzhao's voice was difficult, and as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his arm and waved all the pieces on the desk to the ground.
"What?" Seeing that his guess came true, Father-in-law Cao was shocked and couldn't believe it; "Lord Wan has taken refuge in Da Liao?"
Li Yunzhao sneered, his eyes were almost bloodthirsty, "He's so bold!" Lone really underestimated him! ”
"Your Majesty, what should I do?" Gonggong Cao had no master, he was so anxious that his face turned pale, and suddenly, he remembered something and immediately spoke with Li Yunzhao; "Your Majesty, the mother and wife of the Marquis of Wan are still in Beijing at the moment, if he dares to take refuge in the Liao, why might as well arrest his wife and wife, forgive him and will not care about the life and death of his mother."
