Chapter 269: Past and Present Lives (15)

Outside the city of Chang'an, on the bank of the marriage river.

He hadn't been out of Yuwen Mansion for a few days, and when he saw the light of day, Yuwen Yu suddenly felt that this place was much stranger, the cold wind was cold, and the ink hair behind him was messy in the wind, he gathered the cloak on his body and stood still by the river.

Late autumn has arrived, and a sense of gloom arises spontaneously.

The figures reflected in the water are dressed in brocade clothes, cold and dusty, and seem to be tired before they are old.

The sun is slanting, and it casts a little golden light in the water, which is very dazzling.

He suddenly squatted down and reached into the river, rippling in circles, and the image in the churning river was blurred instantly. "Hiss......"

"Is it so cold to the bone?" The thoughts outside the nine days of the fugue gradually retracted, and Yu Wenyu stood up, flicked his sleeve robe, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Brother Yu......"

Just then, a slightly familiar voice sounded behind him.

He turned his head slightly, and saw a corner of his red coat fluttering in the wind come into his eyes.

The steps lifted seem to weigh a thousand pounds, and it is difficult to take a step forward.

"Brother Yu......"

When he got closer, Yu Wenyu realized that after not seeing him for a few days, Jiang Wu seemed to be a lot haggard. "Ah Wu...... You...... How did you get here?"

"Brother Yu, what's going on these days, why don't you see Ah Wu?" Jiang Wu hurriedly asked.

"I ......," he said, and opened his mouth dumbly.

"What's wrong?"

"It's fine. He shook his head and said incorrectly: "The weather is getting colder, how can I still dress so thinly." ”

"Brother Yu, are you hiding something from me?" Jiang Wu hit the nail on the head and got straight to the point.

"I ......" he looked away, his voice was hoarse, and his expression was gloomy: "Ah Wu, if one day you find out that I have done something sorry for you, you will forgive me." ”

"Brother Yu, what are you talking nonsense!" his words made her heart flustered for no reason.

"You can't guarantee it, do you?" he smiled coldly and said, "Ah Wu, I didn't believe that many things in this world could be threatened by others, but until now I don't know what it means to be left to fate and not to others. ”

obviously planned his future, but in the face of fate, he lost completely.

The autumn wind gusted, and his hair was lightly wrapped, obscuring his vision. His eyes were confused and he said, "Ah Wu, how about we make an agreement?"

"What agreement?" Jiang Wu asked uneasily.

"I heard that on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, all you need to do is write your wish on the lantern and put it into this marriage river with the Venerable Master, and you can ensure that your wish will come true. After a pause, he continued: "It just so happened that the day before our wedding, and when the time comes, we will come here to put the lights and make a wish for Prime Minister Bai, okay?"

This is the last way out he can think of for her, since Xuanqing wants to force him to do something to the Jiang family, it will only be a matter of time before the Jiang family is destroyed, but he doesn't want her to watch him kill her relatives with her own eyes and hate him to the core.

The affection of childhood sweethearts, as well as the companionship of more than ten years, he has long been deeply in love with her, even from the beginning, he knew that he and her would not die well, but he still loved her.

"Good. Jiang Wu hooked her lips and smiled, like a spring breeze warming, as beautiful as the morning light.

The Jiang family and the Yuwen family became in-laws, and it was spread in Chang'an City, and there were many famous ladies.

Since that day, Jiang Wu has never seen Yuwenyu again, and even if she occasionally goes to visit her on a free day, she is turned away from the door of Yuwen's Mansion and cannot enter or leave.

On the day of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there was a rare liveliness in Chang'an City, Jiang Wu dressed up carefully, wearing a big red dress, and took Shuyue Shuying to go to Yuwen Mansion to find Yuwen Yu to enjoy the scenery together.

"Miss, Yuwen Gongzi hasn't come to see you for a long time, if you go so rashly, will he turn you away again. ”

"Yes, miss, every time you go to Yuwen Mansion to ask to see you, you are turned away by him, you really shouldn't go looking for him......"

"I know. ”

As the night deepened, the figures on the street gradually became empty, she lowered her head, and said in frustration: "It's just that our wedding date is almost ......" She wanted to see him again before their wedding, even if there was that agreement, she still felt uneasy.

"Then miss, have you ever thought about what if he repented!" Shuyue said: "Since your marriage date with him was set, he has been refusing to see you......"

"Don't say it, I know it. She closed her eyes, not wanting to dwell on the subject any longer.

The three of them hurried to Yuwen Mansion, but saw a golden carriage parked at the gate of Yuwen Mansion, and a goose-yellow figure was slowly walking out of Yuwen Mansion.

"Miss, it's Princess Xuanqing. I said why he didn't want to see our young lady all the time, it turned out that he had climbed another high branch. Shuyue rolled up her sleeves and prepared to rush forward.

Jiang Wu stopped her and said, "Shuyue, don't be impulsive. ”

"Miss. Shuyue hurriedly said: "Look at how arrogant she is, but she just relies on being a princess, why should she rob someone else's fiancΓ©." ”

"Anyway, let's get to the bottom of it first. Although she also felt very sad to see this scene, she believed that her brother Yu would not fail her.

Several people hid in the corner opposite Yuwen Mansion, hidden in the darkness, blending in with the night, quietly watching Xuan Qing get into the carriage with the help of Yuwenyu, and watching her say goodbye to him......

His heart throbbed slightly, and it wasn't until he saw the carriage driving away that Jiang Wu finally couldn't resist the impulse in his heart, rushed out, and called, "Brother Yu......"

Even if she saw it with her own eyes, she didn't want to believe that Yu Wenyu would like her.

"Ah Wu...... What are you doing here. ”

Seeing Jiang Wu for the first time, Yuwen Yu jumped down the steps, took off her robe, and put on the road for her.

"I ......" she slured, her hands hidden in her sleeves, not knowing where to start.

"Yuwen Gongzi. ”

Shuyue knew what she meant, so she took the initiative to stand up, and said with a look of injustice: "My young lady has a deep affection for you, but you are messing with flowers and grass everywhere, which is a bit unkind." ”

"What do you mean?" Yu Wenyu frowned slightly.

"Don't you know what you mean?" Shuyue continued: "Just now, our young lady and I saw you and Princess Xuanqing with our own eyes. ”

"Ridiculous," he said with a pale face, "when will I talk to her?" ”

He just sent her out of the house on Yu Wenhuai's order, how could he be tempted by such a vicious person.

"Just now. Shuyue quibbled.

"Nope. Pursing his lips, he said slightly angrily.

Shuying tugged at Shuyue's sleeve and whispered, "Since Yuwen Gongzi has explained, you don't have to be unforgiving." She pulled Shuyue aside and said, "Shuyue, Miss has finally been able to meet Yuwen Gongzi, so don't bother more." ”

Shuyue pursed her lips and said unconvinced: "I'm just dissatisfied with Miss Miss." ”

"Okay, what if you don't accept it, this is Miss's business, let's not get involved. Shuying persuaded.

At the other end, Jiang Wu had already lowered his head.

Before they met, she had all the words in her heart that she just wanted to say to him, but when she did, she felt as if she had nothing to say.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her like this, Yu Wenyu's face was not much better.

Seeing that the big wedding was approaching, Xuanqing's patience seemed to have been almost exhausted, and every day he came to Yuwen Mansion to urge him to make a move on the Jiang family as soon as possible, and even sent troops to surround Yuwen Mansion to prevent anyone from escaping.

Therefore, today's Yuwen Mansion can be regarded as a copper wall and iron tile, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for people to get close to half a point.

"What has Brother Yu been doing these days, why is Ah Wu turned away every time he comes to visit. Throwing out several questions in a row, she couldn't wait to ask.

Yu Wenyu avoided Jiang Wu's gaze uncomfortably, and pretended to be calm: "Ah Wu must not know yet, my father is sick." ”

"What?" Jiang Wu said in astonishment, "When did it happen." ”

Yu Wenyu shook his head and sighed: "It's been a long time, and the doctor said that he was feeling the cold and couldn't see guests, so I stayed in the house to take care of it." ”

"So you mean that you are afraid that I will be infected with the cold, so you refuse to meet me. After getting the answer she wanted, her complexion improved a lot.

"Well," he nodded, his expression hidden in the night, and his voice was cold: "The reason why Princess Xuanqing came today is because she said that there is a way to heal her father, so ...... I'm just ......"

"So that's the case, then you can find a way?" Hearing this, Jiang Wu's heart relaxed a lot.

"Not yet. He shook his head and said tentatively: "Ah Wu, I heard that your Jiang family has an ancestral treasure jade, which has the effect of warding off the cold, I don't know if you have heard Uncle Jiang talk about it." ”

"Ancestral Baoyu?" Jiang Wu pondered for a while before he said with certainty: "No, I have never heard my father mention it, Brother Yu, did you hear it wrong, maybe the treasure jade in your mouth is not my Jiang family's thing." ”

"Then what should I do, father, he still needs such a piece of precious jade to dispel the cold on his body for him, if your Jiang family doesn't have it, what should I do. ”

"Relieve the cold?" she said hurriedly: "Brother Yu, don't worry about it first, wait until I go back and ask my father, and then send someone to tell you, if there is, I will personally send it for you." ”

hurriedly dropped a sentence, and Jiang Wu led Shuyue Shuying away.

Yu Wenyu stood at the door of Yuwen Mansion, standing with her hands in her hands, her long clothes swaying in the wind, watching her slowly walk away, before she whispered: "Ah Wu, I'm sorry." ”

For the sake of today's plan, what he can do is to exchange the lives of the Jiang family for the lives of the Yuwen family.

......

When Jiang Wu returned to Jiangfu, the noise on the streets had stopped.

"Why did you come back so late, look at this little face, what it looks like. ”

Mo Yan was worried that she would go out alone, so she sat in the front hall and waited for her to come back.

"Mother, I'm fine. She shook her head, helped her sit down obediently, and asked, "Mother, do you know that our Jiang family has a piece of family heirloom treasure jade." ”

When Mo Yan heard this, his face immediately changed greatly, and he said with a serious face: "Who did you listen to?"
