It seems to really hurt my heart.

When they came, they were in a hurry, but when they returned, they were not so anxious, and Wu Erlang turned his head again, trying to get a glimpse of her sister's thoughts.

However, at this time, the sky was about to be dark, and the haze was raining, whether it was Wu Cuicui or the others, they were all wearing hats, and she lowered her head, but she couldn't see the look on her face clearly.

Wu Erlang was a little uneasy, such a quiet and silent sister was far less reassuring than his sister who cried and made a fuss and then became exhausted.

Halfway through the road, a thunderclap crossed the sky in the distance, followed by a drizzle of rain falling from the sky.

Wu Erlang raised his hand to block the front of him, and took out the picture of the post house from his bosom to look at it, but saw that the next post house was within a mile, and immediately ordered: "Hurry up and go to the post house in front of you to take shelter from the rain, and spend the night by the way!" ”

Everyone obeyed the order, and the sound of horses' hooves reached for a while, and the thin rain curtain in front of them was clearly pierced.

Wu Erlang urged the horse to walk a few steps quickly, and suddenly remembered that he had brought a coat with him when he left Pingcheng, and bent down to take it out of one side of the horse's pocket, wanting to hand it to his sister beside him.

It was also at this time that he found that Wu Cuicui had fallen to the end of the line at this time, still maintaining his previous speed, moving forward unhurriedly.

Wu Erlang's heart suddenly changed, and he motioned for the rest of the people to go first, while he turned his horse's head to his sister's side: "Cuicui......"

Wu Cuicui did not respond.

Wu Erlang couldn't hold it back, and reached out to lift the hat above her head, but saw Wu Cuicui's eyelashes lowered, her eyes red and swollen, and the tear stains on her cheeks were clearly visible.

She just sat on the horse, silently crying for no idea how long.

Wu Erlang felt both guilty and pity in his heart.

I feel guilty that as an elder brother, I can't shelter my sister from the wind and rain, and I pity that my sister has broken off her marriage again, and she is so sad.

He wanted to say something, but he also felt that at this moment, the comfort of words was probably useless to the person in front of him, and in the end he just held the back of his sister's cold hand and told her forcefully: "People have to look forward, Cuicui!" ”

Two tears rolled silently down her cheeks, quickly merging with the drizzle in the sky.

Wu Cuicui turned her face to look at him, and her expression shrank: "Am I stupid, brother." ”

"I messed everything up......"

Her eyes were empty, and she said slowly: "Whether it's Li Tianrong or Li Qiao, I'm trying hard to do something." But I'm so stupid, I don't have a brain, I don't have a vision, I don't understand anything, I'm a waste, I can only cause chaos to the people around me, I killed my aunt and sister-in-law......"

Wu Erlang was uneasy when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Cuicui, don't think so!" It was the Emperor Taishang who killed A-Niang and Wen Niang, the Son of Heaven, what does it have to do with you? You've been kept in the dark and pushed along, are those things out of your intention?! ”

Wu Cuicui shook her head: "Brother, don't say it again, I know you're just comforting me." ”

Again, she said, "I never seem to have done anything right, and I have never done anything to make Daddy and Grandma proud." ”

"In the past, I stalked Li Tianrong to the death, making them embarrassed with me, and I fought against Yu Yingying several times, but my brain was too stupid, and she was always tricked by her."

"I know that many people are laughing at me behind my back, but they don't dare to show it openly because of the Wu family. But for the Wu family and the rest of the Wu family, it is really terrible to have a family like me! ”

"Later, my mind was hot and I separated from Li Tianrong, I didn't know that my family was in danger, why was I such a bastard, I always thought about myself, I thought that there would always be someone behind me, but whether it was Daddy or Big Brother, they were all gone——"

"A-Niang was struggling to support the Wu family at that time, and she was exhausted, and I still made her so worried, how could there be such a bastard daughter as me in the world!"

"And then marry Li Qiao......"

Speaking of this, she couldn't help choking up and said: "I really want to learn to be sensible, I want to be the daughter of the Wu family, I want to be the wife of Li Qiao, I don't want to repeat the past failures, but I can't!" ”

"I'm trying not to repeat the mistakes of my previous marriage, but there are new problems that keep popping up, I've never had anything like it, I don't know who to turn to, I can't solve it myself, I'm really, really scared!"

"Li Qiaozhi was just an imaginary person to me at first, and I told myself that I wanted to be his wife well, but when it came to marriage, the reality was different from what I imagined, and he was a living and warm person!"

Wu Cuicui cried out loud, unable to continue: "When he was confined to his home because he was angry with the Son of Heaven, he always liked to bask in the sun in the study and flip through the books......

"I'm not the wife he wants, and I'm not vicious and evil-minded, but that's why it's all the more disgusting."

"If this were the case, Li Qiao and the rest of the people would have been able to get rid of me happily, but because I wasn't, they could only endure my stupidity on the one hand, and be burdened by my incompetence on the other......

Wu Erlang listened with great emotion, and at the same time, he was amazed that his sister could analyze herself so clearly and cruelly.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the brother and sister walked side by side, the two horses were not urged, and walked forward unhurriedly, and the outline of the post house had already appeared in the distance, but Wu Erlang was thinking of his sister's pale face and godless eyes.

"I've been thinking all the way, what is the point of continuing to live for a person like me?"

Wu Cuicui said: "I'm so stupid, so incompetent, I can't do anything, I can only make the enemy happy, and my relatives sad, it's better to simply die, at least let the people around me be clean!" ”

Wu Erlang said urgently: "Don't talk nonsense! ”

He said, "Why didn't you accomplish anything?" At least that day, in the capital, you saved your family and saved so many officials and people who were suffering! ”

Wu Cuicui shook her head almost invisibly, without words.

Seeing that she had no business, Wu Erlang was worried and hesitated to propose: "If not, I'll send you to Texas to find Li Qiao, okay?" After all, you will be married and married, and the martyrs are afraid of pestering ......."

Wu Cuicui shook her head even more: "Why is this happening? Let's just part happily. ”

"When he comes, I don't want to have the impression in his heart that he will become a woman with a hateful face. Just keep it the way it is, but I still have some good memories...... There should be, right? ”

Her own tone wasn't quite sure.

There was another thunderclap in the sky, and the earth seemed to tremble.

The horse riding under him was frightened, raised his front hooves sharply, and let out a neighing sound, Wu Erlang tightened the reins and clamped the horse's belly, and suddenly noticed something strange in the sound around him, and turned his head to see that the horse that his sister was riding was also frightened and frenzied, and threw her to the ground.

Wu Erlang was so shocked that he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, wanting to help, but was whisked away by Wu Cuicui crying: "What do you care about me?" I'm left to fend for myself! What does it mean for a person like me to live any longer?! ”

With that, she ignored the hem of her clothes, which had been stained with rain and sludge, and fell to the ground and cried loudly, not in sorrow, but in despair.

Wu Erlang helped him several times, but he was brushed away by Wu Cuicui, and after a few times, just when he had nothing to do, he saw a middle-aged woman holding an oil-paper umbrella in the direction of the post house.

I don't know anyone.

This is where it is......

Wu Erlang returned the salute with some surprise.

Wu Cuicui lay on the ground and cried for a long time, until she almost lost all her strength, was picked up from the ground by a pair of warm hands, and staggered to the post house.

"Who are you?"

Her eyes were blank, and she asked the middle-aged woman she had never met in a fluttering tone.

The other party did not answer, but asked the post guard to bring hot water, helped her bathe in her clothes, changed into warm and clean clothes, and finally said: "How can Mrs. Wu be a useless person?" ”

"I don't know anything else, but you used your dowry to help many people, and also allowed many women and children who lost their pillars in the war to survive, isn't this something beneficial to the world?"

Hot water slid across the cold cheeks, bringing a tingling sensation of itching.

Wu Cuicui was stunned and said, "You don't know how many bastard things I have done, and how many people I have harmed......"

The middle-aged woman asked her rhetorically: "If Mrs. Wu is dead, can the wrong things she has done be written off with a single stroke?" ”

Wu Cuicui closed her eyes: "Of course not." ”

The middle-aged woman then said, "What good is death?" It is better to preserve a useful body, and to encourage it all your life, and to do good deeds and atone for your sins. ”

Wu Cuicui's expression was moved and thoughtful.

When she had done this, the middle-aged woman saluted her and turned to say goodbye.

Wu Cuicui stopped her and solemnly returned the salute to her: "I don't know your name and surname ...... yet."

The middle-aged woman turned around, avoided her etiquette, and said, "Lady Wu doesn't need to thank me, I am also entrusted by others to say these words to you." ”

Wu Cuicui was puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Who is that person?" Please also inform me that I will personally go and thank the benefactor who guided me in the future—"

The middle-aged woman shook her head and said, "No need, before I left, she had already told her not to tell Mrs. Wu her name and surname." ”

She picked up the hat placed at the door and put it on: "She said that General Li's rescue that day was a grace of life, and that Mrs. Wu saved her but did not see her, so how could it not be a grace of life?" Wu Niangzi didn't see her that day, so why should she come to see Wu Niangzi again today. ”

Chapter 138

After Li Shimin and Li Qiao separated from Wu Erlang, they led their soldiers to return eastward.

Li Qiao had also walked this road once before, and that was the time when he was ordered to send an envoy to the army of the King of Wei and was ordered to take the princess of Wei and the sinner Chang to accompany him to discuss the crime.

It was also at that time that he accidentally saved Li Shimin and Xiao Mingze, and became brothers with the former.

At that time, he and Li Shimin were riding in front of each other, not far away, and he felt that he had nothing to hide from this brother, so he sighed and said with a wry smile: "I only say that Wu is stupid and dull, how can I be a shrewd person?" ”

"I think that at the beginning, I was ordered to go here, but I sang and made harmony with the father and son of the King of Wei, leaving Chang alive, and after returning to the capital, the son of the Li family was furious because of this, and punished me for reflecting behind closed doors for a month."

"At that time, I was still complacent, thinking that I was playing with the Son of Heaven in the palm of my hand, but I didn't know that the Heavenly Family was a drunkard at all, and his heart was not in the princess of the Chang family, but in Mrs. Wu, it was ridiculous that I didn't know anything, it was not Wu Erlang who learned the truth from the ninth princess, but I was afraid that at this moment, I was still in the dark!"

Li Qiao's expression was not without gloom: "Wu Shi can't understand it, and so do I, although I have always been proud of my superhuman talents, but in the end I ended up with a complete defeat......

Li Shimin listened, but said with a straight face: "This is wrong! ”

His expression was serious, and there was a hint of exhortation and mention in his tone: "My righteous brother is only 10 years old, so he can make contributions to the sea, and he boasts of superhuman talent, why not?" As for the kind of villain method of stabbing knives in the back and stabbing flies and dogs, what are you going to learn it for?! ”

Li Shimin snorted coldly and showed contempt: "Whether it is the Son of Heaven or the Emperor Taishang, they all think they are clever and think that they are masters of playing with people's hearts and manipulating power, but what have they done and what results have they obtained?!" ”

"Emperor Taishang - left the foundation of his ancestors and fled west in embarrassment, causing turmoil in the world and the misery of the people, which is a great crime! And the Son of Heaven - heh, he has a bit of a heart to lie down and taste the courage, but what is he lying down? It's just a violent way to break the situation and put the lives of the officials and people of the city on the line! ”

He said disdainfully: "Such a superficial subtlety and ingenuity, but in fact it is a vicious and incompetent mental calculation, so don't learn it!" ”

Li Qiao turned his head to look at him fixedly for a few moments, then shook his head with a wry smile: "But my righteous brother, I lost under such a calculation......

Li Shimin said as he should: "So didn't you leave?" ”

Li Qiao was slightly stunned when he heard this: "Brother means ......"

A thin smile bloomed on Li Shimin's lips: "How clever are the methods of the Heavenly Family's father and son?" What they rely on is nothing more than the halo of the Son of Heaven and the royal family, and if they can deceive the world for a while, can they still deceive them for a lifetime? ”

He said meaningfully: "Since you can trust me as a brother, then I will teach you another sentence of the sage today, 'In the death of all kingdoms, those who have the Tao must go first, ancient and modern.' 'Will you and the Wu family be the only ones who left the capital because of this incident?' ”

Li Qiao was thoughtful.

Li Shimin tapped his shoulder with a horsewhip: "Idiot, cheer up." ”

He looked in the direction of Gyeongju, which was the only way for them to return to Texas: "There is still a tough battle to be fought over there!" ”

Li Qiao's heart was awe-inspiring: "King Wei ......"

Li Shimin said with a smile: "When you go in a hurry, you don't have to go home, so let's go slowly!" ”

……

Wu Erlang returned to accompany the capital, and hurriedly went to pack up his things, the Wu family was fleeing from Japan and leaving Beijing, and this time it was natural and simple to operate again, not to mention that when the Wu family left Beijing before, there were many people, and now there are only a few left!

He chose some fine belts of gold and silver that he could use, and left all the bulky ones, and as soon as the door of the house was closed, he went out of the city to join his sister.

Wu Cuicui was not completely stupid in the end, and after returning to the accompanying capital, she saw Wang Shilang, so she saluted first: "Mr. is grateful, the little woman is grateful!" ”
