Chapter 233: Shadow

"What's the situation, how did the giant lose it, tell me. ”

Shui Han asked.

At this time, there was chaos in the palace of King Yan, and everyone was chasing down Yi Shuihan, the monarch killer who had absconded in fear of crime, and his two comrades, and Shui Han and his two comrades were discussing the truth of the matter in a place where no one would find out at all.

Filial piety:

"I remember that after you were taken away by those two eunuchs, the room was filled with incense, and then, I lost consciousness, and when I woke up, the giant was gone. ”

Zhong Shao saw Shui Han staring at him, with a questioning look on his face, do you have something to hide from me, he was a little at a loss, he waved his hand and said:

"Don't look at me, even if there is no incense or anything, I didn't wake up at the time, after all, I tried my best to save people, so I had to rest for a while to buy something. ”

Water Cold Road:

"Why don't you just take the giant and frame me for the sake of framing me?"

Zhong Shao said disdainfully:

"A stupid guy is really a stupid guy, we are all from Taoyuan, you have a legitimate reason to be killed, and if you kill the king, you will be killed, Xiaotian and I are not guilty, if we both die here, then the people of Yanwang Palace will not be able to explain." ”

Water Cold Road:

"That's right. ”

A female voice interrupted their conversation, "You three really don't think of yourself as outsiders, this is the princess's bedroom, and now there are people guarding the court outside, can you keep a low profile." ”

It was Yan Qing, the princess of Yan Kingdom, who spoke, and the place where the three of them were at the moment was the princess's bedroom, it was Yan Qing who helped Xiaotian and Zhong Shao, so that these two people found the prison and rescued Shui Han, and now she also provided shelter for the three wanted criminals, and no one knew the reason for this, Xiaotian and Zhong Shao didn't ask, the reason why they believed in this princess of Yan was because they had no choice, and now it seems that this princess seems to be very trustworthy, at least so far, her actions are undoubtedly on the side of the three outsiders。

Shui Han was confused, he had too many questions, but now that Her Royal Highness the princess spoke first, Shui Han simply asked her first:

"Princess, since you brought us back to your dormitory, you naturally have no fear, if you don't worry, we don't need to worry, but then again, princess, are you really good at doing this, no matter how I say it, you can be regarded as your father-killing enemy, and you are actually willing to help us?"

Yan Qing's expression was calm, not at all like the appearance of having just lost her father, she said:

"I know that you didn't do it, and the person who died may not be my father. ”

As soon as these words came out, Shui Han was even more confused.

"What does that mean?"

"Have you ever heard of a shadow?"

"Shadows?" Shui Han glanced at the shadow under his feet, and pointed to it:

"Is that what you mean?"

"No, to put it simply, it's a stand-in, like a fake stand-in. ”

Shui Han suddenly realized and said:

"Are you saying that the one who died was the shadow of King Yan? The real King Yan didn't die at all?"

"I mean, not necessarily, it may or may not be. ”

Yan Qing's voice was still untempered, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

Xiaotian seemed to have some understanding of this shadow's statement, he said: "I heard that the princes in the Spring and Autumn Period were often assassinated, in order to deal with this moment, those princes will basically find a stand-in for themselves, these stand-ins are basically similar to themselves in all aspects, if you are not an extremely close person, you can't see it at all, this kind of stand-in is called a shadow, I used to think it was just a rumor, but I didn't think it was true." ”

"Not only is it true, but it has been passed down to the present, just like me, there is also a shadow. ”

Yan Qing's mouth is naturally referring to herself, Shui Han looked at her high-level face, which was half a degree higher than ordinary faces, and suddenly figured it out, he said:

"Is that Li Sisi your shadow?"

"As I said, the shadow is a substitute for the fake, so it is not so much that Li Sisi is my shadow, but that we are each other's stand-ins, and the relationship between the king and his stand-in is also the same. ”

"Then are you Yan Qing or Li Sisi now?"

"I said, I am the princess of Yan Kingdom, Yan Qing, as long as I am in this Yan Palace, I am the princess of Yan Kingdom. ”

Hearing this, Shui Han seemed to have a deeper understanding of the so-called shadow, this shadow is definitely not an ordinary stand-in, and it is not just a look and a portrait of the main character, what they replace is the whole life of the main master, including everything in their life, it can be said that from the day they become shadows, it is equivalent to giving up the right to choose their own life, and their future lives will take the established good route, associate with the established good people, learn the established good preferences, and hate the established good enemies, until they die。

How sad and how difficult.

"So you can't determine whether the person who died is King Yan or not?"

Shui Han is no longer entangled in the problem of shadows, because this is a meaningless problem to delve into, existence is reasonable, people should not decide the fate of another person, this is Shui Han's consistent idea, what he pursues is freedom and unrestrained, but his pursuit is not equal to the pursuit of others, he is not qualified to judge the lives of others, because he is just a piece of duckweed in the troubled times.

After experiencing the Jade Immortal and Mrs. Shenji, Shui Han understood this truth, is their life good, in Shui Han's opinion, it is naturally not good, one has completely closed himself and shelved it for twelve years, and the other is lost in the temptation of immortality until he dies and cannot extricate himself, their life is not good or even very bad, but this is indeed the life they choose by themselves, sometimes the choice has nothing to do with good or bad, and life is the same.

Shui Han will sigh that people in this world can obviously choose to be better, but he will not help them choose, but according to his heart, he hopes that he is like this, and he also hopes that others will be like this, and others will naturally include shadows, and things in the world will eventually be like people drinking water, and they know themselves whether they are warm or cold.

Then can you really choose your own life?

Weaving Dance can obviously read Shui Han's mind, and it is precisely because of reading and understanding that she will show worry on her face, such worries, when Shui Han was surrounded, when she was interrogated, she never had it, but now, Shui Han's sudden messy mind made her have to worry, because she knew very well that what Shui Han wanted, what he pursued, was called freedom, but just these two simple words were the biggest luxury for him.

Because Weaving Dance knows very well that his present is in exchange for freedom, and there is no difference between him and Shadow in essence, and he is also living an established life.
