Chapter Twenty-Nine

On this day, Li Yunshui was very busy and had three conversations with the three of them.

Xiao Jixue has always been very proud, even if he communicates with big people like Jiang Caiyu and Xu Sanjiang, he still looks like he loves to answer. But only in front of Li Yunshui, his posture was very low, and he looked like a disciple facing his master.

"Shizi, can I take a look at another holy decree in your bosom?" After the others dispersed, only Xiao Jixue remained, and Xu Sanjiang was old and refined, how could he not understand the reason why Xiao Jixue did not leave? Thinking that there are still some inconvenient things to say, I have to say it to Li Yunshui alone.

When Li Yunshui said this to Xiao Jixue slowly, Xiao Jixue obviously had a look of surprise on her face, although it flashed, Li Yunshui was more sure of her conjecture.

"Sir...... This ......"

"Shizi, you don't have to call me sir, I can't afford it. You and I are about the same age, so let's call each other brothers. Li Yunshui knew Xiao Jixue's difficulties, so he didn't ask anymore, but just said playfully:

"The other decree, I guess, is about the bamboo solution, right? If I'm not mistaken, if there is no such thing as today, even if Nazhu Xie sits on the heinous sin, he will still become the national teacher of our plastic yang. ”

"First...... Oh, Brother Yunshui, the emperor trusts you very much, why do you think so? It can be seen that Xiao Jixue is trying her best to cover it up.

Li Yunshui put his hands behind his back, a smile appeared on his face, and paced in front of Xiao Jixue: "The emperor doesn't care about me, or what Zhujie's character is, he only cares if we have the means." ”

Xiao Jixue was silent, without any expression on her face, and quietly listened to Li Yunshui's words.

"He just needs to support someone who has a reputation in the rivers and lakes and is extremely deep-minded. As long as these two conditions are met, no matter how bad the person is, as long as it is not exposed, the emperor will turn a blind eye. Even for him, it is much easier and easier to control than to support a person with bad deeds than to support an innocent person. ”

Xiao Jixue's face was a little unbearable, and she seemed to be a little ashamed, although what Li Yunshui was talking to him about was not himself, but the person standing on top of the temple.

"And you, this time with the emperor's secret order, not so much to investigate, in fact, just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, whoever wins, will come up with another holy decree."

"You say, right?"

The shame on Xiao Jixue's face was even stronger, but she still raised her head, looked at Li Yunshui, and said sincerely: "Speaking from the heart, I hope you win, which is why I haven't announced the decree since you fell off the cliff." ”

Li Yunshui walked up to Xiao Jixue's side, patted him on the shoulder, and was equally sincere: "Brother Jixue, thank you for being so affordable, and I was rescued by you on the court before, which is really a great gratitude." ”

Xiao Jixue was speechless.

"Let me ask you one last question, the emperor actually set his sights on the rivers and lakes, trying to hope to balance with the help of external forces, and now ...... Is the battle for the heir really fierce to this point? ”

Xiao Jixue lowered her head and spit out a few words with difficulty: "It's nothing to win the heir, the real root is that the emperor is still in his prime." ”

"In addition, the emperor said a word to me." Xiao Jixue struggled in her heart for a long time, and that look fell in Li Yunshui's eyes.

He knew that this might be the most measured and weighty thing that Xiao Jixue could say without violating his mission, so he listened carefully immediately.

"The emperor said that if there is a big thing in Jiangnan, you can't solve it properly, even if you get to a high position, it will be a straw bale that is useless."

"I see." Li Yunshui put his hands behind his back, strode outside, and said loudly: "Brother Ji Xue, your sword has already started to be a grandmaster, and it will reach its peak in a few days. ”

The sword in Xiao Jixue's hand tightened her grip.

After Li Yunshui walked away, he slowly took out the holy decree from his arms, threw it into the sky without raising his head, drew his sword, and after a burst of sword flowers, a piece of powder fell.

Jiangnan Prison, Zhao Wufu and Jiang Caiyu were both imprisoned here at this time. It's just that the two of them are quiet and noisy. Zhao Wufu told Li Yunshui that all the people in Xiyugou had left, and he had to be responsible for this matter, and it was much better for one person to come out than for a boatload of people to suffer.

He is ready to go to Beijing, and with the heart of death, it can be regarded as the best destination.

Li Yunshui was silent and quietly left.

Before coming to Jiang Caiyu's cell, Li Yunshui lightly buckled.

"Li Yunshui, God's will is like this, you don't have to come to see the old man's jokes." Jiang Caiyu was unkempt, and had been wailing for a long time at this time, but he calmed down and said hoarsely: "Actually, I have no grudge against you, and I have no ill will towards you. ”

"Lord Jiang, I ...... you Again, there is no malice. I'm here today to learn something from you. As he spoke, he took out his piece of white jade and handed it over casually.

Unexpectedly, when Jiang Caiyu saw Yu Jue, he immediately felt like he had seen a ghost, with a frightened expression on his face, and he couldn't stop retreating, and there were words in his mouth: "Pu Jia...... Pu Jia...... You...... You ......"

"Liqiujia? What does this piece of jade have to do with Li Pujia? ”

Jiang Caiyu didn't answer, only looked at the jade in Li Yunshui's hand in a daze, took a big breath, and tried to calm his emotions, but the old face couldn't stop shedding tears.

Li Yunshui didn't urge, just waited quietly.

After a long time, Jiang Caiyu slowly calmed down, and said with a little choked up: "Gongzi Li, you ...... Show me the jade...... I'll just take a look......"

Li Yunshui handed it over, Jiang Caiyu took it, squeezed the jade tightly, and covered it on his chest: "Retribution, it's all retribution!" Pu Jia...... I'm sorry for you......"

He cried like a child, and it was so sad that the sound echoed in the prison for a long time, like a whimper from hell.

After a long, long time, he reluctantly returned the jade to Li Yunshui, and said, "Li Gongzi, it seems that what the man in black said is true, you ...... But you are...... The Emperor's ......"

In the second half of the sentence, he didn't say it.

Then, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ji Cai! You poisonous woman! It's so miserable! ”

The so-called dying man is also good in his words. Like a dream, he told Li Yunshui many things, mainly around one person, that is, Li Pujia.

He said that it was the only woman he had ever loved in more than fifty years, even now. Once, Li Pujia was really wholeheartedly devoted to him, and did not hesitate to surrender her identity to be his concubine, and did not hesitate to show up and sell rice on the street to make money.

What a beautiful memory it was, when Su Li empathized and said goodbye, he was an adult, gave Su Li to King Luo, and then carried a sedan chair to marry Li Pujia, and vowed to grow old with her.

He said that the wedding was extremely grand and really caused a sensation in Jiangnan.

However, happiness is sad, and Taiji does not come. On the day of the wedding, Ji Cai had evil intentions and drunk himself and King Zhen.

That night, she quietly added love medicine to Li Pujia and Xiao Wanli's wine, and then sent the drunk Xiao Wanli into the new house that originally belonged to him and Li Pujia. In order to humiliate Li Pujia, she even left the jade pendant that King Zhen carried with her on Li Pujia's bed.

What's even more sad is that the next morning, even after Jiang Caiyu went to good. He separated the hangover King Zhen and Li Pujia, and didn't even dare to move the piece of jade, so he left it on Li Pujia like that, and lied that he gave it to him.

Later, he didn't even dare to touch Li Pujia, and he neglected her for a long time because of awe, so that Li Pujia thought he had changed his mind.

What's even more heartbreaking is that after King Zhen became the emperor, Ji Cai actually came to Jiangnan again, hid from himself, and told Li Pujia what happened that night word for word. Poor Na Pu Jia has just given birth to a child, and when her body is still weak, how can she withstand such a blow?

So, in frustration, where can Pu Jia, who has always been strong, endure such humiliation? In a fit of rage, he hanged himself.

And the child left by Li Pujia was also snatched away by a man in black at Li Pujia's funeral.

Seeing this piece of jade must prove that Li Yunshui today is the child who was snatched away, the son of the real emperor.

Jiang Caiyu even said that when she saw Li Yunshui before, she always felt very familiar, it turned out that Li Yunshui was her child, and it was indeed a little similar when she looked at it this way.

Speaking of the back, Jiang Caiyu is even more tearful and can't help himself.

After these words, Li Yunshui didn't know how much credibility there was, but at least he couldn't believe all of them.

For example, before, after he came out of the Mawang Mountain moat, he was lying on the roof of Jiangfu, and when he heard Ji Cai reprimand and humiliate Jiang Caiyu, he talked about the past between Jiang Caiyu and Su Li, which is why she knew the relationship between several people and contacted Wuwu everywhere pretending to be a man in black.

At that time, Jiang Caiyu did not say a word, and did not refute what Ji Cai said, which shows that the facts are confirmed. And now that he can hear Jiang Caiyu's words, especially the paragraph involving him and Su Li, it is obviously different from what he heard before.

According to Ji Cai's words, it was Jiang Caiyu who personally gave Su Li to King Luo in order to curry favor with King Luo, and even for a bet on the throne. And at this moment, Jiang Caiyu's caliber has completely changed, but it is said that Su Li is empathetic and don't fall in love.

Obviously, the truth is more inclined to what Ji Cai said.

Although he knew, Li Yunshui did not refute it, he seriously suspected that the interaction between Li Pujia and the emperor and Jiang Caiyu was definitely not only because Ji Cai was in the way, there must be other reasons, but there was no need to be entangled.

He confirmed one thing, his mother was Li Pujia.

So, he no longer cared about Jiang Caiyu's crazy chatter, and left thoughtfully.

That night, Xu Sanjiang hosted a banquet to entertain Li Yunshui, but he did not let Xu Ruoyun accompany him, so he invited Li Yunshui to a banquet alone.

A few polite times, a few glasses of wine.

Li Yunshui stood up and bowed deeply to Xu Sanjiang: "Old General Xu, I am really grateful to you, I didn't follow the intention of the bamboo solution, and drove out all the people in the Xiyugou, but instead left them time to flee for their lives. ”

Xu Sanjiang held the cup in his hand, was stunned for a moment, raised his head and drank the glass of wine, and looked quite emotional: "More than 20 years ago, I ...... I really can't stand King Luo. ”

He beckoned Li Yunshui to sit down, stood up by himself, put his hands behind his back, looked out from the gate of the camp, it was all pitch black, and said slowly: "Back then, I was not the commander of this tiger slaughtering battalion, and I came with the Gyeonggi battalion to take over the Jiangnan domain. Originally, I had already discussed with King Luo, received the talisman, and after completing the change of defense, we returned to Beijing together. ”

"But at this moment, a holy decree suddenly came to me, and the person who delivered the decree was the emperor's sister Ji Cai. The decree commanded me to kill all the party of King Luo. I'm sure I'm sure of it. Although I was very unwilling, the emperor's order was difficult to resist, and Ji Cai urged from the side, so I had to attack with troops, forcing King Naluo to Mawang Mountain, and finally died in a desperate place. ”

"Alas! But then I realized that the decree was false. Ji Cai carried the emperor on his back, drafted a holy decree by himself, and secretly covered the jade seal, and the emperor ...... I don't know. ”

"The most ironic thing is, why are you Dao Jicai's wife like this? It turned out that she didn't like Jiang Caiyu's confidante Li Pujia, but when Li Pujia scolded her on the street before, Su Li helped on the side, just to take revenge! ”

"What makes me even more guilty is that when I secretly discussed this matter with the emperor, the emperor did not punish me for this matter, and after reprimanding me lightly, he only asked me to leave the Gyeonggi camp and stay on the spot. Since then, I have made a great mistake but I have come back to my body, where is my conscience? ”

"So, when Takejie told me about the creek bathing ditch, I made up my mind that I had to do something. So, I dragged Zhu Xie and asked people to inform Xiyugou and the others in advance, so that they all escaped. ”

Li Yunshui listened, and suddenly said: "General Xu, this matter will definitely not be hidden from the emperor, what should you do when the truth is revealed?" I'm afraid ......"

Xu Sanjiang returned to the table and sat down, took a sip of wine, and drank it all: "I have written to the emperor to ask for guilt." ”

"Now, I am a lonely old man, Ruoyun has also taken off his military status, and there is no longer any concern at present, if I want to kill or chop, I will listen to it, I will answer."

"Back then, it was I who forced the generation of King Luo to die in Mawang Mountain, and after 20 years, it's time to make up for it."

Xu Sanjiang was very sorry and remorseful, and immediately picked up the wine jug directly and drank it down.

Li Yunshui was silent.

Ten miles outside the city, in a thatched hut, a woman was illuminated by the dim candlelight, smiling stupidly on her face, touching her belly while singing a lullaby, adding a little warmth to the quiet night.

"I have a fight with the Bamboo Jie Senior Brother, and it is appropriate to place Su Jue like this." Li Yunshui looked at the scene in front of him and sighed faintly.

Wuwu next to him also sighed, grabbed Li Yunshui's hand, and said quietly: "Yunshui, how do you go next?" ”

"Worried, do you remember what you told me when we were about to go out of the Horse King Heavenly Trench?"

A month ago, at the foot of Mawang Mountain, Li Yunshui looked at the cliff without worry.

"Worry, do you really want to go out?"

"Well, yes. Yunshui, I have a father, and a mother, they are all very important people in my life. I've been on this cliff for so long, and my father must have been very angry when he got the news. As a child, as they get older, how can I ignore them? ”

"Alright, then we'll get out."

"I want to go out, but when I return to the red dust, and be accompanied by that sinister human nature, I have a few words to talk to you." Wuwu turned sideways, looked at Li Yunshui, and said cautiously.

Li Yunshui saw that he was so serious, and immediately became serious: "Worry, you say, I listen." ”

Wuwu stretched out his hand, straightened the clothes on Li Yunshui's chest, and said softly-

"Yunshui, you are too affectionate, this is an advantage, but it is also a disadvantage."

"One, you're not defensive. You see, the change in the bamboo solution must not have become like this in a day or two, and you were unaware of it, so that you were very passive later, and this is a problem that you especially need to reflect on. You don't have the heart to hurt others, which is very good, but you must also have the heart to prevent people! ”

Li Yunshui listened quietly, sighed deeply, but also nodded.

"Second, you're too stubborn. In this world, feelings are important, but the premise is that you have to have a life, if you don't even have a life, how can you talk about feelings? When you were in prison, with your martial arts, there should be no problem in getting out of trouble, but you got into a dead end and were unmoved, so that later, you had no chance to live. ”

Li Yunshui nodded again: "Worry, you are right. ”

The carefree seriousness dissolved, and continued: "Third, people, in fact, will change. You say, why did Bamboo Jie become like that? There are many reasons for this, but it is nothing more than being ignored too much and being unbalanced in the heart. But life is a boat on the bitter sea, where is every moment sweet? It is necessary to keep one's heart, especially in the face of strong winds and waves. ”

Li Yunshui was about to speak, but was stopped by Wuwu: "Yunshui, go out this time, your affairs must be done first." I suggest that we first investigate everything in secret, and then think of a plan, so that nothing goes wrong. ”

"Yunshui, now that the two of us are one, you have me, I have you, but don't ...... There can be no more slip-ups. ”

"What do you think?"

Li Yunshui took the worry-free in his arms, gentle and infinite: "Worry, I have taken everything you said to heart, don't worry." ”

He gently kissed his carefree forehead again, and his eyes were full of pity: "Worry, if you haven't gone through some suffering, how can you be so entangled?" I'm so worried, I won't let you suffer those grievances again in the future......"

Thinking of all the things under Mawang Mountain, the faces of the two were gentle and sweet.

Li Yunshui pulled up the worry, looked at her eyes, and said softly: "Worry, to be honest, I want to go to the capital to have a look and see how the temple is going." You...... What do you think? ”

Carefree smiled sweetly, opened his arms around Li Yunshui, put his head on his chest, and said softly: "Yunshui, wherever you go, I will go." ”

"It's just that there must be an invincible cold in that high place, you ...... Will it change? ”

Li Yunshui also stretched out his hand, hugged Wuwu, smelled the fragrance between her hair, closed his eyes, and said slowly: "Everything else may change, but we ...... Forever, okay? ”

"Okay, Yunshui, I believe in you."

“…… The man I fancy will inevitably withstand the ups and downs of the world, and will inevitably withstand the stormy waves. ”

"Yunshui, what kind of days will we live in the future?"

"That must be beautiful!"
