Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Strange Trick of the Eastern Desert
Yuwen put aside the teacup as usual, and there was still a smile in his demonic eyes, and he said indifferently: "Why, Luo Qianxia has never mentioned this matter to you in all these years?"
Zhao Wu'an's heart shook like a drum. "Not yet. ”
"Well, no wonder. Since you came to make leaves, you have lived as a fake body of the second prince, and your life is incomplete, she must not want you to embark on an old road as decisive as Luo Jianqi. ”
"What do you mean?" Zhao Wu'an was stunned. He vaguely felt that the biggest secret of his life was only separated from him by a thin layer of paper at the moment.
Yuwen was lonely and groaned for a long time.
Zhao Wu'an's eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper.
After a long time, Yuwen Gu opened his mouth, but what he said was something that Zhao Wu'an didn't expect: "That Liao Niang in Mobei has been waiting for someone to come back from outside the gate for more than 20 years. ”
Zhao Wu'an was stunned, and Yuwen continued to speak, carefully considering the words.
"She can't wait. Because that person had already vomited blood and died outside the pass, on the day the Song army evacuated the Gaoliang River. ”
Zhao Wu'an was stunned for a long time, unable to speak, only feeling that his palms were hot.
"Liao Xiaoran's husband is Li Jing. It is not by chance that she takes care of you and Hu Buxi, but at the request of a deceased who they share. ”
"Yes...... Who?" asked Zhao Wu'an with difficulty.
Yuwen shook his head.
"I'm not going to say any more. ”
It's not that you can't, it's that you won't.
The regent of the leaf-making country is far-sighted, one step at a time, and every word is considered on the tip of his heart before he speaks. There are many things that can make him know but not speak, but it is rare to encounter such a positive rejection.
Zhao Wu'an forced to ask, "Why?"
"This truth will only make you follow a path similar to Luo Jianqi without hesitation. Since Luo Qianxia kept this secret from you, I will continue to do so. Yuwen said word by word.
Zhao Wu'an slapped his palm on the tea table, leaned closer, and said categorically: "I want the truth." ”
Yuwen Guhang suddenly chuckled, his knuckles were slightly bent, and he said in a low voice: "There is no business in this world that is done in vain. If you want the truth, you can exchange it for something. ”
"What do you want?" Zhao Wu'an asked.
"Leave Jinguan City. Yuwen said resolutely, "Leave Shudi, wherever you go, the truth will be delivered ten days after you settle down." ”
Zhao Wu'an was stunned, and a feeling of annoyance and shame of being played gradually rose in his heart.
From the very beginning, Yuwen Guhang's purpose has not changed, that is, to let Zhao Wu'an leave Shudi. The later competition was just gradually increasing his chips, and by the time Zhao Wu'an reacted, he had already been tied to the game and it was difficult to get out.
If he misses it here, he will never have the chance to learn the truth about his background for the rest of his life, and not every time, everything will go as smoothly as justifying the name of Garan Anxulie.
"I promise. Yuwen said in a deep voice, "You know, I've been waiting for you all these years. ”
Zhao Wu'an was silent, and the green tendons in his neck were beating.
He does know. The yellow bell that Yuwen Guhang personally sent to Duxiu Village, and the old eunuch who had been waiting in the village for twenty years.
Everything he has done over the years has not actually escaped Yuwen's lonely control. And since leaving Kunlun, Zuoye has actually stopped chasing him, and may have secretly helped him block a lot of troubles from the Black Cloud Society.
Yuwen has been waiting for a prince named Garan Anxulie to return to the capital in armor, take off the regent hat from his head and throw it into the furnace, snatch back the power that has been monopolized by him all these years, and wash away the world's gossip about him.
But Garan Anxulie was already dead, and sitting in front of him was Zhao Wu'an.
"I'm not going to leave here. ”
Zhao Wu'an shook his head.
"You can incite Li Huang to come, you can lobby Duan Taoli and Annan, and you can even collude with Zhu Nanzhan to tempt him with the mystery of Hu Buxi's life experience. You can also tell the An family and his wife everything about me, and you can form another alliance with Miao Jiang for the Four Dynasties. ”
He stood up, his white clothes fluttering.
"But don't you want me to stop, don't want me to deny what is now in front of me for the sake of that empty past. ”
"I've come to this day step by step, and I'm not here to be your dangling puppet. ”
He turned and pushed open the door to the tea room. Yuwen sat quietly in place and did not move.
The tea on the table was not cold.
Yuwen Guhang suddenly chuckled lowly, and his voice was gloomy.
"Hanging line puppet? Do you know how I have said that I am not anyone's hanging puppet over the years?"
His name is Lone Hanging.
Although he is close to the age of sixteen, his voice is like that of a teenager, and he can't tell his age.
He is not a puppet of the entire leaf-making country.
Victory and defeat, honor and disgrace, hanging alone outside the cliff.
No matter what the fame of this life is, Yuwen Lonely Hanging must bear the rise and fall of a country for a hundred years, and must bear the infamy of a hundred generations after his death.
Zhao Wu'an's footsteps paused slightly, his expression moved, and he still walked out of the tea room without looking back.
When he returned to the next door, Li Huanglai's seat was already empty, the table was full of cups and plates, and there were two unfamiliar faces, chatting with the An family under the supervision of Hu Buxi.
Twilight stood aside and trimmed her nails. Zhao Wu'an came up and glanced at him.
"What kind of poison?"
Dai Lou Duyun couldn't help but burst out laughing. "You know me very well. Don't worry, it's not to the point of killing people if his life is hard enough. ”
Zhao Wu'an frowned unhappily, "It's enough to teach him a lesson, Yuwen Guhang is not a heinous person." ”
Duan Taoli sat on the side and interjected: "I heard that it is a strange poison that can make people only tell the truth!" But Li Huang ran to the thatched house immediately after drinking it, and he hasn't come back yet, I still want to wait and see how amazing it is!"
Zhao Wu'an frowned: "Why haven't I heard that Miao Jiang still has this kind of poison?"
Dai Lou Duyun said: "Miao territory is vast, there are still many things you don't understand......
"Come less. Zhao Wu'an quickly interrupted him, "Broken intestines?"
“...... Trace. "Dai Lou Duyun dead duck has a hard mouth.
Zhao Wu'an stared at him as if he was guilty.
Duan Taoli said regretfully: "It's just a broken intestine, I thought there was really a medicine in this world that could make people tell the truth...... As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Wu'an and whispered: "When the time comes, ask him if he likes me." ”
Dai Lou Duyun and Zhao Wu'an obviously didn't hear her words. The former raised his index finger and said seriously: "When he rolls on the ground with stomach pain and kneels and begs me to give him an antidote, he naturally dares to answer anything seriously." This...... It's also a kind of truth medicine, right?"
Zhao Wu'an couldn't wait to roll his eyes to the sky.
At that time, Hu Buxi called him and said, "Boss, come over here." ”
Zhao Wu'an was stunned, walked near Hu Buxi, and looked at the two unfamiliar faces who had just come in. One of them was talking to An Guangmao enthusiastically. An Guangmao was silent by nature, and nodded cooperatively.
Both of them are wearing blue shirts, with white belts around their waists, and they are also practicing their bodies, so they should be martial arts people.
Hu Buxi whispered: "It's from the Tang Sect." ”
Zhao Wu'an was stunned, "Tang Gate, isn't that the person from Dongfang Lianmo?"
The blue-shirted man who was not talking turned his head when he heard this, looked at Zhao Wu'an, and nodded happily: "Yes! We are the disciples of the Eastern Alliance Master of Tangjiabao, we just arrived in Jinguan City yesterday, and the Alliance Master has also entered the city today, so I will stay in the Tianxian Residence in the east of the city!"
Zhao Wu'an was not very familiar with the name Tianxian Residence, but An Nan said on the side: "Isn't that quite close to us." ”
The blue-shirted man became more and more happy and said: "Exactly! Starting tomorrow, the alliance leader will also hold a feast for twenty days in the Tianxian Residence, and feast the world's heroes." At that time, if the knights from all walks of life have the heart, they may as well come to the scene, I believe they will not disappoint you!"
"That's what you're here for?" Zhao Wu'an pouted.
Hu Buxi crossed his hands and said helplessly: "If only it were so simple......
The man nodded to Zhao Wu'an excitedly: "This chivalrous warrior, I see that you have a long momentum and a steady game, you should be a first-class master in the martial arts, right?"
"Hmm. Zhao Wu'an snorted through his nose.
"Oh, that's right, our Tangjiabao recently had a plan in Jinguan City, wanting to recruit a group of young and promising knights who are working hard and aiming to contribute to the future of the rivers and lakes, and the alliance leader will personally teach ......"
"How much?" Zhao Wu'an looked at the man, dressed in suspicious blue.
The man showed a nervous expression, waved his hand again and again, and said, "It doesn't cost anything! Everything is free, and if you pass the entry selection, there is room and board in the castle?"
"Then what do you want me to do?" Zhao Wu'an asked.
"Well, there are two ......things in total," the man hazed, "One is that I hope that during the period before running for the alliance leader, I can gather more supporters in the city for the alliance leader, and at the same time maintain the order of these people...... We have also negotiated with the city guards, and the two sides will jointly shoulder part of the security management tasks. The second is, yes...... Hey hey ......"
"What is it?" Zhao Wu'an's face was expressionless.
"That's it...... I hope to ...... in future elections Those who have money contribute and those who don't have money to make some efforts for the succession of the leader of the Eastern Alliance...... Ha ha. ”
Zhao Wu'an nodded, stretched his neck, and looked at An Guangmao, who was overwhelmed.
"Are you done? ”
The blue-shirted man wanted to say something, but saw Zhao Wu'an roll up his sleeves and casually pulled out the beauty slash hidden in his sleeve.
Before Li Huanglai left from the hut, two diligent MLM workers were kicked out of the private room.
Hu Buxi smiled bitterly: "I'm really curious, did Dongfang Lianmo become the leader of the alliance by relying on this trick sixty years ago?"
"The limelight has changed, so I have to do everything I can. "But I didn't expect him to be so unconfident, it stands to reason that there are still more people who support him in the rivers and lakes, right?"
"Of course, this is true on the surface, but the truth is difficult to say. Zhao Wu'an put the beautiful woman on the table, "Although the Black Cloud Club is hated by everyone on the rivers and lakes, it can be put on the table, and the black and white are reversed, which is a matter of a blink of an eye." ”
An Guangmao hesitated for a long time before he said: "I listened to what he just said, it seems that Dongfang Lianmo has indeed reached the point of exhausting donkey skills......
"That's what we need to guard against the most. Zhao Wu'an said, "Although it is a raccoon dog, who knows what kind of drastic changes will be caused after another person is elected." ”
Li Huanglai's seat is still empty. Zhao Wu'an said: "I'll go and bring him back." ”
However, when Zhao Wu'an dragged the half-dead Li Huanglai back from the thatched house, the beautiful slash he had placed on the table before was gone.
