Why?

All thoughts have disappeared, and there are only three words in the blank mind, why.

Why did you cheat to death, why did you lie to him, why did you let him be like a trapped beast and struggled to pursue it, but he never said a word and watched coldly?

Why?

The cold winter wind was blowing his cheeks and blowing his hair, blowing the green yarn in front of the car fluttering and swaggering, da-da-da, and the sound of hurried horses' hooves surrounded in all directions, it was Xie Zhan's guards and those Jingguo soldiers who were eager to protect the military division, Xie Zhan leaned in slightly in the sound of the blade, and his slender hand pressed down slightly: "Stop, don't be rude." ”

The tone was still warm and peaceful, the voice was not high, and it was not easy to hear clearly in the whistling wind, but those sabre-rattling soldiers put down their swords almost immediately, even if they still looked at Huan Xuan with resentment on their faces, they never took a step forward.

Yu Tanlang, the style is unparalleled in the world, and the calculation of people's hearts is also unparalleled in the world.

At the beginning in Yanzhou City, the name of the young master was second only to Xie Rin, and in the army, the shogunate and the hearts of thousands of people, Rin Rin was like a god.

It's just that once these schemes fall on his head, he knows how painful it is. Huan Xuan stood motionless and watched. The face that once made him feel distressed and reminisced, made him feel guilty and remorseful, and now makes him resentful and aggrieved, full of bitterness and nowhere to say.

"Abandon the slave," Xie Zhan looked at him with a pair of eyes as smooth as glass, and stopped talking, "I ......"

"Why?" Huan Xuan opened his mouth, staring at him with dark eyes, "Why?" ”

Why didn't she think to tell him for so many days, why did she repeatedly use his trust to trap him in an embattled situation, why did she come back when he could finally have a place in her heart?

"Why?" Xie Zhanjunya's face showed deep sadness, and for a long time, "I didn't expect things to come to this point. ”

"You didn't expect that? Scold. Huan Xuan sneered, looking at him condescendingly from the horseback, "Sandalwood handsome, what can't you expect?!" ”

"There are many things that I can't predict." Xie Zhan looked up at him, as if there was endless desolation, hidden in this warm and peaceful voice.

Raising his hand slightly, the guard of the cart understood, pushed the four-wheeled cart to a sheltered place on the side of the road, and then retreated to the side. Huan Xuan patted the horse to follow. Now, the two of them are left in this temporary shelter made of rocks and a dead pine.

Relatively speechless, one looked stunned, and the other was tense. On the mountain road behind them, the guards and soldiers stayed in place and waited, and on the mountainside above their heads, three hundred leopard Yin elites held bows and crossbows, concealing their bodies according to the terrain, and being vigilant against every move under the mountain.

The sound of the wind blowing the green yarn, Xie Zhan rolled up the curtain so that they could see each other more clearly: "Abandoned slave, these days, I have been thinking about you. ”

Huan Xuan sneered lightly, and immediately looked at him condescendingly. Three months ago, he wouldn't have had the slightest suspicion about this, but now he only thinks it's ridiculous.

Xie Zhan's desolate color was even stronger, he looked up at the mountain, and took in the cold light of the blades flashing behind the boulders, in the shade of the trees, and in the grass: "These are your leopards?" ”

Huan Xuan snorted again. His leopard hidden, is it really his leopard hidden? The name was chosen by Xie Zhan, and half of the generals and soldiers who were scattered at all levels were recommended by Xie Zhan, and the other half may have many secretly attached to Xie

Felt. Over the years, he has worked hard to dig out his heart and lungs, and he has never had the slightest defense against Xie Zhan, his subordinates, his advisers, and even his beloved woman, which one is not handled by Xie Zhan? What is he?

For a moment, the cold blood boiled and rushed to the skull, and Zheng pulled out the big knife: "She, do you know?" ”

Such a pitiful and lovely her, crying in his arms, wet on him, those extreme pleasures that blend together, could it all be a conspiracy?

"No," Xie replied quickly, "she doesn't know anything." ”

There seemed to be a thud on the ground, and a clear echo could be heard in the skull, and Huan Xuan held the knife tightly. The muscles swelled and tightened to the extreme, and they trembled a little. She didn't know. For a moment, she had to thank God, but she finally didn't know.

There was a commotion behind him, but it was the soldiers who saw him draw his sword and were eager to rush over to protect him, Xie Zhan waved his hand again to suppress the noise and fear: "I didn't expect that things would develop to this point." ”

"I've been wondering since the day the plan started, one day in the future, will you draw a knife against me." Xie Zhan looked at the blade in his hand that flashed with cold light, "Abandon the slave, I try my best to avoid this result, but unfortunately, Providence makes people." ”

Providence? Whose providence has made whom? Does Providence want him to pour out his heart and lungs to him, but he is being toyed with? Huan Xuan looked at him coldly: "When did you start planning?" ”

Xie Zhan quickly replied: "The city of Yanzhou is broken, and my father killed himself that day." ”

The blood was boiling in the skull, making people feel dizzy and distended, Huan Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "Very good." ”

It's been since then. In the past six or seven years, he has put on all his heart and soul, fighting with his life to accumulate military merits, only seeking more power to protect him and the people he cares about, but it turns out that it is only part of his plan. It's ridiculous.

"Abandon the slave," Xie Zhan covered his sleeves and coughed lightly, "It's not what you think." ”

"It's not like that, so what?" Huan Xuan sneered, seeing him put down his cuffs, his pale face flushed abnormally with coughing, which made him instinctively worry in his heart, and pressed it again.

"In my plan, I will spend all these years dormant in the north, secretly contact the southerners, spy on the military situation of the country, and when the time comes, we will return to Jiangdong together," Xie Zhan said slowly, "Also, Suisui." ”

A tense string sounded in his heart, and Huan Xuan interrupted him, almost rude: "Who allowed you to arrange her?" ”

"I ......" Xie Zhan smiled bitterly for a while, "abandon the slave, she is still my wife after all." ”

Something exploded all of a sudden, Huan Xuan was angry, with a deliberate sneer and ridicule, and asked rhetorically: "Your wife?" Oh, Sandalwood is handsome and powerful, don't you know what happened to me and her? ”

Seeing that his pale face suddenly turned red, a trace of cold light shot out of his warm and peaceful eyes, Huan Xuan held the knife and looked at him coldly.

After a long time, Xie Zhan lowered his eyes, and his expression returned to calm, as if the hatred and poison revealed at that moment were just an illusion. The wind blew a little harder, and he coughed a few more times, as if he couldn't bear it, and lowered the curtain a little.

So half of his face was hidden behind the green veil, and he couldn't see it clearly: "I said, I didn't expect everything, including meeting her, including wanting to marry her, including, you and her." ”

him and her. Huan Xuan looked down, and there was a trace of secret happiness in his heart. He knows, he knows

They were in one place, knowing that she was his man now. Even if he returns, there are many things that cannot be changed.

"For the first time in my life, I was born with joy, fear, and desire." Xie Zhan raised his eyes, "I have believed in Shakya since I was a child, and I know that hue is nothing more than emptiness, but I didn't expect a word of love, and it was never in the control of others. I want her to be happy and worry-free, I want to protect her, and hold up a place without wind and rain for her in this troubled world. ”

The jealousy couldn't be suppressed, and Huan Xuan interrupted rudely: "I'm not interested in listening to your nonsense!" ”

Xie Zhan paused, but continued: "I thought that everything would go according to my plan, I would marry her, be with her for the rest of my life, and have children." It was my carelessness, I got the marriage certificate, thinking that things were in order, but I didn't expect Fu Chong to report her to the emperor behind his back. ”

Huan Xuan saw the hatred and anger flash in his eyes again: "It's only a few days." In just a few days, I was able to take her away. I had already arranged everything, and I had all the paperwork and guidance in hand, and I was going to tell her when I came to her, but who knew that Yuan Lu had evil thoughts because of this, and summoned me to the palace. ”

Xie Zhan looked up at Huan

Xuan: "You know the rest of the story. ”

No, all he knew was the surface, and he wanted to know what kind of heart Xie Zhan was harboring under the surface. "No, I still want to hear Sandalwood Shuai tell me in person what happened."

"I refused to sacrifice her, so Yuan Lu deliberately humiliated her, and then ordered the guards to monitor the Xie family day and night, and the guards were also strengthened at all checkpoints to prevent her from escaping." Xie Zhan lowered his eyes, "At that time, I wanted to take her away, but it was impossible." But my plan to return south has been planned for a long time, and everywhere is interlocking, and there is no delay, and I can't take her with me at the risk of exposing everyone and even losing my life. ”

"So you faked your death and left her behind? Let her stay alone in Yejing, and there is still Yuan Yuan on the side? Huan Xuan gritted his teeth, with anger that he didn't know whether it was for himself or for Fu Yunwan, "What do you want to make her happy and worry-free, I want to stay with her for the rest of my life, it sounds good, bullshit!" ”

Xie Zhan's pale face wanted to justify, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by a violent cough, unable to say a word. Huan Xuan took a step forward, seeing that his face was coughing red, cold sweat was on his forehead, and the corners of his eyes were wet, Huan Xuan involuntarily approached, wanting to help him, but in the end he couldn't help it, let him shake his intestines and lungs and cough for a while, gasping and raising his sleeves to cover his lips: "I ......"

Huan Xuan interrupted: "What are you doing with all this nonsense?" If you have the kung fu to take some medicine and squat less on the tuyere to choke on the wind, maybe it will be better faster. ”

Xie Zhan smiled astringently: "Abandon the slave." ”

The guard ran and handed over the kettle, Xie Zhan took a sip, and barely suppressed the cough in his throat: "I thought at that time that there would always be you." You will take good care of her. ”

Huan Xuan smelled the bitter taste of the medicinal juice, and what he drank was not water, but medicine. He was really sick. His face was so ugly, his body was thin and boneless, and the winter coat was draped over his shoulders, and his shoulders seemed to be unable to bear it, and they collapsed diagonally.

It made him suddenly think of the strong impression that when he rushed back to Yejing to see him, time was short. Those worries that had been pressed in my heart for a long time finally couldn't help but ask: "...... you"

A crisp sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded on the mountain road, Huan Xuan looked over, and a man and a horse in the direction of Sizhou were approaching quickly, it was the leopard Yin he sent out to investigate: "General, the Sizhou army can't hold it, and the east city gate has been captured when it comes down!" ”

Huan Xuan turned his head and looked at Xie Zhan clearly,

My heart sank suddenly. Xie Zhan had already calculated this result, and the reason why he had been with him for so long was probably to drag him down, so that he would not rush to Sizhou.

"Not what you think." As if seeing through his thoughts, Xie Zhan quickly explained, "Sizhou has been besieged for many days, and we know the situation in the city well, and it is only a matter of time before the city is broken. I withdrew my troops from Yanzhou not to attack Sizhou, but to take over and rectify and make plans for the future. ”

What are your plans for the future? What is important to deserve such a mild-mannered person like him to quietly withdraw his troops and rush to Sizhou with such vicious means? Huan Xuanding looked at Xie Zhan. Maybe what he thought was gentle was just an illusion that Xie Zhan deliberately let him see. After more than ten years of life and death friendship, he thought he was too familiar with someone to be familiar with, but he had never understood.

There was silence for a while, only the cold wind hunting, and the knife cut the cheek.

After a long time, Xie Zhan spoke again: "Abandon the slave, come back to the south with me." ”

Huan Xuan had a huge sense of absurdity in his heart. How could it be that at this time, after he was so deceitful and tricky, he would tell him casually and go back to the south together? When he is a clay puppet, is he at his mercy? sneered: "Okay, what benefits do you give me?" I am now a general, with hundreds of thousands of troops under my command, and you recruit me back to the south, what position can I compare? ”

"Although you are a general, you are not the same heart as the northerners after all," Xie Zhan looked earnest, "Now Yuan Zhen is already suspicious of you......"

With a thump in his heart, Huan Xuan interrupted: "Who told you that Yuan Xuan was suspicious of me?" Wang Shu, or Chen Wan? Or are they all? Or the people I don't know, the southerners you've planted around me all these years? ”

Xie Zhan paused, wanting to defend, but he couldn't justify, seeing that his expression was getting colder and colder: "Sandalwood is handsome, you can deceive me well!" ”

The sound is like crying blood, and the guilt is like a tide drowning in an instant. Xie Zhan took a deep breath and explained in vain: "Abandon the slave, I don't want to do this, from the very beginning, I wanted to go back to the southern ...... with you."

"Back to the South?" Huan Xuan interrupted him again and leaned over from his horse. He got very close, and Xie Zhan subconsciously gave way to the back, seeing his magnified face. The dark pupils were wide, the bottom of the eyes were densely covered with bloodshots, and the chin was covered with a thick and hard stubble. He must have not had a good rest in days, and neither did he. These days the two sides are at war, and it is a physically and mentally exhausting battle for him and himself. He didn't know it was him, but it was a good thing.

"Back to the South?" In his ears, he said in a cold voice, "Okay, I'll go back to the south with you." So what are you going to do with her? She's already mine, and you've watched me so much, you know how much I've been with her these days, and how happy I have been with her......"

"Shut up!" Xie Zhan hoarsely swallowed and drank, "You, shut up!" ”

Huan Xuan closed his mouth and looked at him coldly.

For a moment, he was extremely angry, and those words, like sharp knives, stabbed him in the heart. Xie Zhan gasped, his throat was sweet and itchy, and he couldn't suppress it: "I said, I can't predict everything. Especially you. I misread you. ”

"I didn't expect you to have a mind on her."

Misread him? He was wrong about him. Huan Xuan clutched the handle of the knife tightly, and his finger bones turned white, and something suddenly flashed through his mind. It wasn't just him who he was watching, but she as well. Those confessional books that appeared in the study for no reason

letter, the Yan family wanted to kidnap her for some reason, and on the way to Langya, Liu Zhi suddenly appeared.

Maybe it wasn't kidnapping, it was to take her away to join Xie Zhan. Even that time, Liu Zhi was not to contact He Pingzi at all, but to find an opportunity to get close to her and take her away.

Xie Zhan never gave up the idea of taking her away.

All of a sudden, my heart was beating to the extreme, and distant memories rushed back to my head. When he first started to learn the art of war, the two of them secretly dug a secret passage in the courtyard, hiding in the secret passage to practice attack and defense, sometimes he was lazy and didn't want to study, and he would go into the secret passage to avoid Xie Rin's examination school, Xie Zhan quietly brought him food and water when no one was around.

The secret passage leads to the inner courtyard.

He has Xie Zhan's people by his side. Now she is left alone in the courtyard. Xie Zhan's heart was as careful as a hair, and it was impossible for him to forget the existence of that secret path like him.

In an instant, it was like five thunderbolts, and without saying a word, he turned his horse and left.

Behind him, Xie Zhan leaned over and looked, wanted to scream but didn't scream, covered his mouth and coughed again.

Huan Xuan ran more and more urgently, his blood boiling, and he was infinitely angry and remorseful. He was stupid enough to forget something so important. Although the secret passage is dug up compared to the size of a child, but with Xie Zhan's means, it is not difficult to stuff people in, he has been out for two days, since Xie Zhan's people can detect Yuan Zhan's suspicion of him, they will definitely be able to enter and enter the city freely, maybe she has ......

No, no way! Huan Xuan shook his head vigorously and threw out the ominous thought. No way. Even if he could, he would take her back.

For the first time in his life, he wanted a woman so much, and for the first time in his life, he was so indulged in the taste of tenderness that no one would want to take her away. Xie Zhan is even more not!

Yanzhou, Xie Fu Courtyard.

Fu Yunwan came out from under the porch and stopped in front of the bushes more than half a person high, looking at the newly blooming plum in the flower garden.

The guards were changing guards at the side door, and Ah Jin had not yet come out of the house to get the hand stove, and the surroundings were very quiet at this time, only the wind blew the golden petals of the plum, shaking silently.

There was a sudden faint sound behind her, as if someone was calling her: "Lady." ”

Fu Yunwan turned around, the dense bushes moved, and the branches and leaves swayed.!
