Chapter 1: Self-Casting into the Net

Next Chapter

On the fifth day of the first month of March, Tongcheng.

This spring rain has been falling from the Shangsi Festival to today, and many of the peach blossoms that were originally blooming all over the city have been knocked down from the branches, fallen into the mud and turned into dust, and offered new branches in the coming year.

The Shangsi Festival has passed, and the young boys and girls in the prime of their youth should have tried their best to meet their favorite objects, but they couldn't withstand the cold rain and invaded the city, so they had to wait patiently at home.

The city is full of rain and it is difficult to avoid the rain, and the Yang Mansion is unique.

Yang Wantang, the servant of Great Chu, is the most honorable person in this Tong City. The people of Tongcheng all know that they would rather refute their words too much than ignore Yang Lang's intentions. The Yang family is powerful, and it is through the imperial court, in order to protect his career, he will not brush Yang Lang's intentions, this sentence is right, he does not account for these details.

Now is the third year of the war between Beiyu and Dachu, the world that has been stable for more than 300 years has been stirred up into a muddy water by this war, although Tongcheng is not far from the border, but on the more remote western front, there is General Wenzong in the north to guard Liangzhou, blocking the offensive of Beiyu to the south, which left a little stability in this troubled world.

At this time, the Yang Mansion under the high walls was receiving the most important guests in the palace with the best pomp. The guests came from the north, traveled lightly, and there were only seven or eight people when they entered the city.

The leader is a twenty-eight-year-old girl, who is now sitting on the seat, and her face is red from choking on a sip of wine.

"So, how is Uncle Shi's wine?" Yang Wantang sat at the table and looked at the girl with interest. His wife, Gu, and his concubine, Liu, sat on both sides.

Wen Gu's face was full of sadness: "Don't hide it from Uncle Shi, I have never drunk wine before, and this cup is also to thank Uncle Shi for his help......"

Before Wen finished speaking, Gu got up and poured her a full heart: "Come on, come on, it's so cold, the girl's family is running all the way, and after working hard, drink another cup to warm up." ”

Holding the wine glass, her face was embarrassed, and the maid Zhixia on her side stepped forward, with anger between her beautiful eyebrows, her own young lady has been favored by the general since she was a child, and now she never knows what "embarrassment" means. Who would have thought that the general had just passed away and would be angry here.

Wen Gu raised his hand slightly to stop Zhixia, gritted his teeth and swallowed another glass of wine, and said to Yang Wantang slowly: "Uncle Shi, the news of my father's death is now kept secret, Liangzhou has to be stable for a while, my brother and I want to meet the Great Chu Emperor as soon as possible to ask for support, Liangzhou is lonely between the two countries, if Beiyu gets the news, Liangzhou is difficult to defend." ”

Wen never needed to say so many things in one breath, but there are too many anxious things now, the safety of Liangzhou, the whereabouts of his younger brother, everything is related to Yang Wantang.

Yang Wantang drank the wine when he saw Wen Lao, and his expression was a little more relaxed: "Son, you don't know how to fight, your father has only raised you as an eldest lady for so many years, and your younger brother is only a thirteen-year-old child." Battlefield conquest, you don't have much effect. ”

Yang Wantang was not polite, but what he said was right. There is a request for help from others, but I have to be silent. Yang Wantang didn't say anything when he saw it, and continued.

"Since your father entrusted you to me, then I will let you play a role."

Yang Wantang finally got down to business, and although he was displeased, he still held back: "Please make it clear to Uncle Shi." ”

Yang Wantang pretended to sigh: "Your father is indeed a rare general, originally he was in one day, Beiyu was going to be distracted in Liangzhou, but now that he is gone, once Liangzhou is broken, Dachu will be difficult to protect." ”

When the old wine came up, the five internal organs seemed to be mixed together, and he couldn't help but say: "That's right, that's why my father asked me and my younger brother to invite Uncle Shi." ”

"Uncle Shi knows the situation of Da Chu better than you, if Beiyu is a whole country to conquer, Da Chu will not be able to protect itself, let alone support Liangzhou." Yang Wantang said, looking at the old man meaningfully, "People are in such a situation, I have been thinking about a way to break the situation these days, and now I have figured it out, your sister and brother are the key to breaking the situation of my Yang family." ”

The meaning of his words seems to be that he does not want to support Liangzhou. Less than ten days after his brother sent the news, Yang Wantang wrote another letter to invite himself. Thinking of this, Wen Gu felt a chill, wanted to get up but had no strength, a fishy sweetness came up, opened his mouth, and the table in front of him was dyed a bright red.

The situation changed suddenly, and Zhixia saw Miss vomit a mouthful of blood, and was just about to step forward to protect it, when there was a sharp pain in the back of her head, and her eyes turned black and fell to the ground.

"My Yang family is established, relying on judging the situation, the Great Chu is declining, and the Beiyu is getting stronger, how can I be killed in this form." Yang Wantang motioned for the servants to drag Zhixia away, and continued, "At this time, Brother Wen Sect will send your sister and brother to me, this is my Yang family's endless life!" ”

Wen Gu's throat was already filled with blood, and he sat down on the seat, trying to ask where his brother was, but was stopped by the gushing stream of blood.

Yang Wantang saw Wen Gu's mouth shape clearly, and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi originally thought that Brother Wen's daughter was born so good-looking, Emperor Beiyu would definitely like it. It's just that your life is a variable, and it is related to the future of the Yang family, and Uncle Shi doesn't dare to take this risk. The news of your brother and Liangzhou has now arrived in Beiyu, you want to see him, and when you die, you will naturally be able to see him. ”

Yang Wantang can murder himself like this, and his younger brother is probably already murderous at this moment. My father fought all his life, but after his death, he was calculated by a small servant of the Chu State, and he was not afraid of death, and Liangzhou would die if he couldn't keep it, but she was unwilling to die in this way.

"Brother Wen's good daughter, now to be a living person who can be slaughtered by others, it is better to be a dead person who paves the way for my Yang family."

The consciousness of recalling the old was becoming more and more dissipated, and Yang Wantang seemed to be still saying something, but he couldn't hear it clearly. The servant of the Yang Mansion came with a knife, and there was blood dripping from the knife.

The attendants she brought with her all died in the Yang Mansion.

The father's entrustment, the life and death of the younger brother, the safety of Liangzhou, and the life of the attendant. All ruined by her credulity and unscrupulousness.

Wen used the last of his strength to clench his fists, his nails sinking into the flesh, cutting blood.

At the last moment, Wen Gu saw Liu standing up on the table and walking towards him, his trembling hands covering his face, and helping him close his eyes.

It was pitch black.

The consciousness of the old man came out of the chaos and gradually became clear, and the noisy sounds around him flickered far and near. In the darkness, the road ahead is not visible, and the road back is even more unknowable.

In these sixteen years of life, her father raised her very well, even if it was a troubled time, she didn't need a woman to be close to the sword soldier and manage the art of war. Under the protection of Liang Zhoujun, she is the most stable lady in the world, she doesn't need to know the hardships of the world and the sinister hearts of the people, she just needs to follow her father's arrangement and move forward.

But this road came to an end, but he fell into the trap of others. Until today, for the first time, Wen Gu has seen betrayal and calculation, and the pampered flowers, the cold rain and frost of the world will be shattered as soon as they are beaten.

If you start all over again, the reminiscence will not stop there.

……

I don't know how long this darkness lasted, it seemed like a long time, but it seemed like it was only for a moment.

"Boom!"

The sound of the strings breaking.

The light grew brighter in the darkness, and the noise around them was slowly audible.

"Miss......"

"Miss?"

When he heard someone shouting to him, the darkness in his eyes gradually gathered together, and it became a word on the paper, like his own judgment.

"Miss!"

The middle-aged man in front of him looked at him eagerly, and the maid beside him was gently pushing his arm.

He recognized the person in front of him as Wen Liang, a close confidant left by his father, but Wen Liang should have died in the Yang Mansion just now.

Wen rubbed the back of his hand on his chin, and there was not a trace of blood on his smooth skin.

She spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Uncle Wen, I see, I had a dream."
