Chapter 1487: The Death of Parting
"Sister Jing, why are you here?!——" Xiao Tian saw Lu Jing and continued to ask in surprise, "Didn't you go on the Northern Expedition with Zhu Yuanzhang with Brother Tang Zhan?"
"Don't mention him——" However, when Tang Zhan was mentioned, Lu Jing suddenly burst into a voice, and with a very angry expression, he glanced to the side, revealing a mixed expression.
Su Jia saw it in her eyes and knew what was going on at this point, and she couldn't help but step forward and ask softly, "Sister Jing, tell us, what happened...... Why do you say, 'Don't mention him'? What happened to you and Big Brother Tang Zhan, isn't Big Brother Tang Zhan with you......
"I've ...... I've ...... Between me and him, it's over-" After a long pause, Lu Jing finally said this painful sentence.
And when everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked.
Everyone eased up, and Su Jia couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Sister Jing, are you ...... I had a conflict with Brother Tang Zhan?......"
"There's no relationship between me and him anymore, so ...... So......" Lu Jing seemed to be a little choked up when she said this, and her eyes were full of hesitation.
"What the hell happened, why do you have nothing to do with Brother Tang Zhan?......" Xiao Tian also asked with concern on the side.
Lu Jing was silent, pondered for a long time, and finally slowly explained to everyone the situation when he and Tang Zhan were separated......
(in recall)......
Walking to the deserted fork in the road, Tang Zhan couldn't help but stop......
"What's the matter, stupid, let's go-" Seeing Tang Zhan standing still, Lu Jing said anxiously on the side.
"This is not the way to the main camp-" Tang Zhan said bluntly with a serious expression, "Jing'er, tell me honestly, what the hell is going on?"
"Okay, I'll admit it, the place we're going to isn't the main camp......" Lu Jing eased her mood a little, calmed down and turned around.
"Where are you going?" Tang Zhan and Lu Jing asked in a cold voice as they stood facing each other at the fork in the road.
Tang Zhan felt that today's Lu Jing was very strange, and similarly, Lu Jing felt that today's Tang Zhan was very indifferent......
"Get out of here—" Lu Jing stared at her eyes and said Zhenzhen.
"Leave ?——" Tang Zhan thought he had misheard, and asked repeatedly.
"That's right, it's leaving, just like Sister Su and Brother Xiao—" Lu Jing also replied expressionlessly.
"Where are you going?" Tang Zhan asked with a serious expression.
"It's okay, the farther away from Zhu Yuanzhang the better......" Lu Jing said very seriously, "Go to Bianliang, go back to my house, let's get married and enjoy our family, and never ask about the war again......"
After hearing this, Tang Zhan was stunned for a while, saying that he was "getting married", but he was not happy at all, but he was uneasy and continued to ask, "Why do you want to go?"
Seeing that he couldn't "move" Tang Zhan like this, Lu Jing seemed to hold his breath and did not answer.
"I asked why you left?—— may have also been "stimulated" by the departure of Xiao Su and the others, today's Tang Zhan was too indifferent, as if he was interrogating a prisoner, and he had a cold tone towards Lu Jing.
Finally, Lu Jing couldn't hold back anymore...... "I just want to take you away, how can there be so many why ?!!!——" suddenly shouted loudly, as if the bitter grievances that had been hidden in his heart for a long time broke out, and Lu Jing's exclamation really jumped Tang Zhan.
But Tang Zhan's reaction was quite calm, he didn't speak, just quietly looked at the emotional Lu Jing in front of him.
Lu Jing had never been so angry in front of Tang Zhan, this was the first time, after relieving for a while, Lu Jing's expression was sad, and she continued: "Don't you know?!—— Brother Zichuan, Brother Nangong Murong, Brother Qin, Sister Ying...... He Yifan, Chen Shijin...... In the final analysis, they were all killed by Zhu Yuanzhang, isn't it enough that so many people have been innocently sacrificed?!——"
Listening to Lu Jing's anger from the bottom of his heart, Tang Zhan didn't say anything and continued to look at Lu Jing calmly.
"Now Sister Su and Brother Xiao are also gone," Lu Jing said, tears gradually oozing from the corners ......of her eyes, and she said sadly, "From the Northern Expedition to Shandong all the way to the present, we are just chess pieces used by Zhu Yuanzhang - conquering Tongguan, the world is set, and our use value is over...... The next one to fall victim to is our ......"
"You mean, Zhu Yuanzhang will kill us......" Tang Zhan was still calm and asked lightly.
"Those who want to achieve great things can kill their relatives, not to mention that we are ...... of the wild soldiers in the rivers and lakes" Lu Jing's mood became more and more sad, and she said slowly, "Zhu Yuanzhang is an ambitious person, we are a threat and obstacle to the unification and hegemony for him, if the world is determined, he will definitely not let us go......"
When Tang Zhan heard this, he was silent and calm for a long time, and his heart was inexplicably touched, and there was a trace of sadness and pain. But another voice in my heart is choosing not to allow myself to do this......
"So, come with me, stupid......" Lu Jing began to cry slightly, "I don't want to watch you follow in Zhao Zichuan's footsteps...... You and I go back, we will live happily for the rest of our lives after we get married, I beg you-" Pressed by emotion, two tears crossed Lu Jing's cheeks.
Tang Zhan always looked at Lu Jing with one expression, and after a period of silence, he finally spoke...... "I'm sorry Jing'er, I can't leave ......" A desperate answer, cold and frustrating.
Lu Jing's eyes widened, the tears had not yet been wiped away, and she couldn't help but ask softly, "Why ......?"
"Because this is not only my ideal, but also my mission, now that victory is approaching, I can't give up halfway...... Tang Zhan gradually said calmly, "Maybe Jing'er, you are right, Zhu Yuanzhang used us, and even after the victory of the war, he did not hesitate to get rid of us...... But even so, I can't be deterred - I swore in front of Uncle Xiaofeng that as a descendant of the Tang family, no matter how difficult or dangerous it is, I will take it as my responsibility to save the common people in the world, expel Meng Yuan, and save the people! This is my mission as a descendant of the Tang family, and it is also to atone for my father's sins......"
"In order to complete this mission, you don't even want your life, don't you......" Lu Jing heard this, although she had a little feeling, but the decision in her heart remained the same, she was bound to take Tang Zhan out of here, and when she heard Tang Zhan's answer, she couldn't help but be disappointed.
"Since I am the widow of the Tang family, I have to carry the family mission......" Tang Zhan's eyes were very firm, as if he couldn't change his mind no matter what, and continued to say solemnly, "Moreover, the army has taken Tongguan and is about to approach the capital of Mengyuan, and the oath with him three years ago can be fulfilled......"
Lu Jing listened to it, knew what Tang Zhan was thinking, lowered his eyes, and couldn't help but say silently: "The young master who came to the dart game...... Sun Yun ......"
"That's right—I still remember the agreement I made with Brother Sun Yun three years ago,......" Tang Zhan untied the ornament on his waist—it was the half of the dragon-patterned jade pendant that Sun Yun gave him three years ago—Zhen Zhen said, "Now my wish is about to come true, the army is about to arrive in Dadu, and I can't leave here no matter what!"
"Friends and missions, for these reasons, you don't even want your life......" Lu Jingdu said with cold tears and despair.
"My life is in my own hands, no matter how many hardships I encounter...... But the family mission and the brother's agreement, I will not let go of it no matter what!" Tang Zhan said firmly.
"I don't expect you to be a hero, and I don't expect you to really save the world...... Lu Jing's tears became more and more unstoppable, and she choked up, "I just like you, I don't want you to die...... Even if you can't become a hero, even if you can't complete your family mission, I don't care about that...... I just want you to live well, that's my simplest wish......"
When Tang Zhan saw Lu Jing's tears, he couldn't help but feel a touch in his heart......
For Tang Zhan, he is a descendant of the Tang family, inheriting the mission of the family, not only shouldering the heavy responsibility of atoning for his father's sins, but also determined to expel the tyranny and save the common people, and at the same time not forgetting the oath and agreement with his brothers;
However, now these two feelings are like the fork in the road where the two of them are standing now, life can only determine one direction, and Tang Zhan must make a choice......
Tang Zhan thought for a long time and continued: "I'm sorry Jing'er, the family's mission is heavy, and I have to carry it, even if it is risking my life, I will not hesitate to ...... So, Jing'er ......"
"So you mean to leave me, don't you...... At the last moment, you only think about your own ambitions after all, are you willing to give up on me......" Lu Jing's expression was desperate to a low point.
"No, Jing'er, I ......" Tang Zhan subconsciously wanted to say something, but stopped abruptly.
"I said it, I don't care if you're a hero or not, and I don't care how heavy your family mission is......" Lu Jing showed a deep gaze and pleaded with tears, "I just want you to live well, this is my simplest wish...... Fool, I beg you, come with me, I don't want to watch you die......"
"I can't go-" Although he hesitated in his heart, Tang Zhan's tone was unwavering in his words, looking at Lu Jing's eyes full of tears, and he said with composure in reluctance, "No matter what happens, no matter how much danger there is, I will not let go of my mission and responsibility-Jing'er, even if it is you, you can't stop me from ......"
This sentence was said resolutely, but it was also ruthless, Lu Jing saw it in her eyes, as if a trace of despair had passed from the corners of her eyes, she put away her choked crying, and left cold tears across her face...... As if she had decided something, Lu Jing's expression suddenly became serious, and she always looked at Tang Zhan with desperate eyes......
"No matter what I say, you don't want to listen to me, do you......?" Lu Jing, who no longer prayed, pinned her hopes on the last decision with sad eyes, and said coldly to Tang Zhan, "I will give you two choices, either choose to accompany me and go back with me to marry, or choose to give up on me and stay here and wait for ...... death."
The bitter choice is in front of him, and now that he is at a fork in the road, Tang Zhan seems to be facing a trade-off in his life, and he will never be decided......
In the northern desert hills and valleys, under the cold wind and slaughtering scenes, Tang Zhan was like a drifting dust, and after making a choice, he passed away with the wind, and could never return to the original point......
On the one hand, it is the mission of the family, and on the other hand, it is the retention of his lover, no matter which one it is, Tang Zhan is unwilling to let go ruthlessly. However, if I had not carried the mission of my family for three years, I would not have kept my firm beliefs all the way and fought all to protect the people I love...... The two complement each other, which helped Tang Zhan get to where he is today, but now he has to leave one by one, and Tang Zhan is extremely uncomfortable......
But the choice of fate, he couldn't escape after all, and after being silent for a long time, Tang Zhan finally gave the answer......
"I'm sorry, Jing'er......" Tang Zhan said bitterly in a sad tone, "I swore that I would carry the mission of the family......" Tang Zhan's final decision was to choose the mission.
"So, did you decide to give up on me......" Lu Jing's heart was already desperate to the bottom, and cold tears hung on her face, looking extremely sad.
"If Jing'er insists on leaving, I'm sorry, I can't go with you......" Tang Zhan said, and couldn't help shedding tears, saying the last words of despair, "If fate is really like this, I can only leave you ruthlessly......"
The last sentence was heartless, and when Lu Jing heard this, she was completely dead......
"Good, good...... I didn't expect you to be able to say such a thing in your mouth......" Lu Jing put away her tears, with a cold face, and took out two things from her waist.
"Jing'er ......" At that moment, Tang Zhan knew that he had said the wrong thing, but he couldn't turn back - the painful parting deeply hurt this girl who had loved him for three years, Tang Zhan knew that he couldn't get her forgiveness in his life, after all, ruining a girl's feelings was equivalent to ruining her life......
Lu Jing had a cold face, threw the things in his hand, the two brocade bags, to Tang Zhan, and threw them heavily on his face, as if venting the anger in his heart.
"Forehead ......" felt a hot pain on his face, but Tang Zhan kept enduring it, he knew that he had hurt Lu Jing, and Lu Jing would not forgive him in this life.
"Just think it's my kindness, and finally give you the advice of the descendants of the Tang family......" Lu Jing completely became cold-blooded, wiped her tears and said, "Two tips, the red one is for Zhu Yuanzhang, and the blue one is for Wu Xiao...... Please pass it on to them for me, and open it if you think it's time......"
Tang Zhan held the two bags in his hands, but there was a faint pain in his heart.
"This is my last alms to you......" Lu Jing stood at the fork in the road and said the most painful sentence, "From now on, we will break off our righteousness ......"
As soon as the words fell, cold tears flashed, Lu Jing turned around and left without looking back, disappearing into the mist of the fork in the road......
(In reality)......
"He finally chose to abandon me for the mission of his family......" Lu Jing said this, tears couldn't help but flow from the corners of his eyes, "Since he is so ruthless, then I have also decided to ...... Break with him in this life!"
When Xiao Tian Sujia heard this, his expression immediately changed......
