For three days, for three full days, they were locked in a pitch-black room where they could not see their fingers. There was no food, no water, and even the air was thin and cold, exuding a musty smell. She didn't know if it was day or night, and she didn't know what would happen to the general's mansion after she was taken away
The "Seven Demons of Asura" are the seven killers of Wuyinlou, the most mysterious organization in the Jianghu. He is worth 500,000 taels of silver, and each of them only accepts one deal a year, and when they go on missions alone, they are always straightforward and quick, without any failures. The moment they appeared, the faces of the officials changed in shock. She came back to her senses, and Zongzheng Wuyou had taken them out of the general's mansion. That was a speed she had never imagined. Then, she was stripped of her wedding clothes and thrown into this almost completely enclosed dark room. Above this room was the place where they spent the night, beside the hot spring pool. The one imprisoned here with her is Zongzheng Wuyou himself.
She didn't understand his intention of doing this, so she could only stay in a corner defensively, quietly waiting for Zongzheng Wuyou to speak first. This wait lasted for three days, Zongzheng Wuyou was very quiet all the time, as if there was no one there, he didn't speak, he didn't move, even his breathing was so shallow that people couldn't feel it.
This room is not big, but it is spacious, except for the floor and the walls. She curled up, but still felt very cold, so she shrank into the corner again.
"Are you cold?" In the darkness, Zongzheng Wuyou uttered a sentence in the past three days, and asked her if she was cold. His voice was hoarse and icy cold, like the temperature of the floor tiles under her.
Man Tian pursed his lips, didn't make a sound, and continued to shrink his body, the same quietness. In such an environment, people will always involuntarily recall her past life. As for her life, she couldn't think of any other words that could be used to describe her life except the word "sad".
She didn't eat or drink for three days, and never closed her eyes. She felt tired and powerless. All her emotions were magnified infinitely in the quiet and desolate, and her head was a little groggy. She leaned against the wall and finally felt sleepy.
In a daze, she felt that the wall she was leaning against suddenly became very warm. She naturally yearned for that kind of warmth, and unconsciously moved towards the wall, wishing she could embed her whole body in it, without any pain at all. I realized that the warm "wall" would actually move.
Zongzheng Wuyou mobilized his internal energy to make his whole body warmer, and then hugged the slender woman in his arms a little tighter. He rested his chin under the top of her head and gently rubbed the woman's hair. Paroxysms soft. This room used to be his healing place. After the nightmare thirteen years ago, he locked himself here, neither eating nor drinking, and seeing no one. In this darkness, he finally put his The heart is honed to be ruthless. From then on, he never came again for thirteen years. Now, stepping into this place again and taking her with her is just to prove one thing. During those more than ten days of being together day and night, amidst the warmth and affection he deliberately created, was it her or himself who really fell into the trap
When Man Tian woke up, he still couldn't see anything when he opened his eyes, and the wall behind him was still cold and hard, no longer the warmth of the dream. She couldn't help laughing at herself, how could there be warmth in a wall. Dreams are always just dreams.
"Zongzheng Wuyou." She was not sure if he was still here, so she called out. There was no response for a long time, and the surrounding area was as silent as ever. She suddenly felt a tightness in her heart, and she had to admit that in the past three days, despite her precautions, she was never afraid because of his presence.
After a long time, just when she thought she was the only one in the room, a soft voice came from not far from her left: "En." It miraculously made her heart settle down.
She sat up straight, calmed down, turned her head in his direction, and asked calmly, "How long are you going to lock me up?"
"With me, are you afraid?" Zongzheng Wuyou said indifferently, without any emotion, but she clearly felt a helpless and desolate state of mind. Perhaps staying in the dark for too long can easily lead to illusions. She smiled lightly, sighed, and said, "Let me go. Don't forget that I am the princess who came here by marriage, and it is the will of Emperor Lintian. Although General Fu is not as honorable as your status, he is in the end. Holding the three armies, he has supreme prestige in the army, and he is in charge of the life and death of a country. No matter what you do, you can't change the fact that the marriage has become a reality. As long as he keeps on me, I can only be the wife of General Wei, There will be no intersection with you."
"If he divorces you, you,, six
"He won't divorce me." Her tone was calm and sure. If Wo Cho would divorce her, he would have divorced her three days ago.
"You really believe that?" His voice suddenly became very cold, with a hint of unconcealable anger mixed with the coldness. Zongzheng Wuyou suddenly turned around, grabbed her shoulders, his eyes were fixed on hers like ice blades, and seeing things in the dark was a kung fu he had practiced since he was ten years old.
She instinctively wanted to avoid his sharp eyes, but she still tried her best to calm down and said a word calmly: "Yes."
She felt his body tremble, and there was no sound for a while. The suffocating silence made her feel increasingly uneasy. After a long time, the voice became colder and colder, and there was a trace of pain that was almost inaudible. "Why? If you got your body because of my purpose, do you think his motive for marrying you is pure? How do you know that he is not using you?"
Mantian smiled wryly, and said: "I am willing," she wanted to say that she would rather be used by the world, but she could not bear his use and deceit. She did not say that sentence in the end, but "I am willing" Three words fell on Zongzheng Wuyou's heart like a sharp knife stab, one word, one hole.
His hand suddenly exerted force, and his five fingers seemed to be embedded in her shoulder bones. He suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips fiercely, with monstrous anger and punishment-like force, as if he wanted to crush her and swallow her with his lips and tongue. into the belly.
She struggled with all her strength, while his arms were like iron clamps, no matter how hard she tried, she was only held tighter and tighter by him.
A trace of bloody smell rolled into the mouth, spread in the depths of the throat, and reached the apex of the heart. I don't know if it was hers or his. In short... it was bitter.
He pushed her to the ground, and kisses fell like a shower without stopping for a moment, making the already thin air even more like nothing at this moment.
In less than a moment, the air in the chest cavity was drained, and the severe pain of suffocation in the chest swept across the sky, mixed with the wonderful pleasure brought by the intertwining of lips and tongue, it was so tempting that he couldn't stop it. Such a real touch reminded him that at this moment, she was still his, she was still in his arms, under him. His hands quickly penetrated into her clothes, looking for the last sliver of comfort in her heart that was on the brink of despair.
Man Tian's body trembled for a while, and he instinctively snorted, and was immediately startled, in such a situation, how could she still react? A sense of humiliation arises spontaneously. What does this man think of her? Not knowing where the strength came from, she took advantage of him to push him away, raised her hand without hesitation, and slapped his extremely handsome face firmly with an extremely loud slap.
Zongzheng Wuyou was stunned. For a moment, his mind was blank. What is he doing? Is he using force on the woman he likes? ! That was the most intolerable behavior in his life! As if he had received a huge blow, he sat up abruptly, his thin lips pursed into a straight line. My heart was empty, and I didn't feel anything about the burning pain on my face.
Man Tian hurriedly sat up from the ground, hugged his clothes tightly, and leaned against the wall in the corner, greedily. He breathed the air, but still felt a tight pain in his chest.
I don't know how long it took, Zongzheng Wuyou asked: "Aman, you treat me",... How sincere are you? "
All over the sky raised his head in surprise, a person as proud as Zongzheng Wuyou would actually ask such a question? She bowed her head again, not answering him. No matter how sincere she is, she will bury it.
Time passed bit by bit, and at the other end, Zongzheng Wuyou leaned back heavily and hit the wall with a muffled sound, only to hear him smile wryly, with self-deprecating words, and slowly said: "Don't you have any points?" ? Then... let's go."
Man Tian was stunned, a little surprised, he would let her go so easily? He took the initiative to expose his own strength, took her away from the wedding in the general's mansion, and locked her up with him in this underground stone room for three days. What was the reason? There was a bang in her ears, and the stone door opened in response, and a faint yellow light shone in. She turned her head away, her eyes were not quite used to it yet. Zongzheng Wuyou's voice carried a sense of desolation that had gone through vicissitudes, and repeated: "Let's go." She barely stood up, her whole body was weak, she could only support the wall with her hands, and walked out slowly step by step. After going out the door and up a step, she couldn't help but look back, she saw a self-deprecating smile hanging on the corner of the thin lips, which looked extraordinarily sad, and suddenly pierced into her My heart hurts severely. Zongzheng Wuyou's face was pale, and he sat on the ground decadently, his half-drowned eyes were full of devastation, and he was completely devoid of the usual arrogance and conceit. Like a child with a fatal blow.
Zongzheng Wuyou seemed to feel her gaze, and raised his eyes slightly. The flash of distress in the eyes of the woman under the dim light outside the door made him feel a glimmer of hope. He looked at her from afar, and with all his sincerity, She said to her: "Aman, if you are willing to turn back, I will reward you with an unswerving love for the rest of my life." Her heart trembled, her body froze, and the leg that was about to move away seemed to be nailed to the ground. It fell to the ground and couldn't lift it any longer. A lifelong love? Such a sentence came from the man she loved in her heart. "How tempting and yearning. His eyes are so sincere and full of expectation, as if telling her that as long as she is willing to go back, even just one step, her and his happiness will be within easy reach. Who can Rejecting such a temptation? She bit her lip, struggling between reason and emotion, something awakened in her heart a little bit, and was forcibly suppressed by her. She always stood there, half looking back, motionless. Zongzheng The brilliance in Wuyou's eyes gradually dimmed, and even the blood that had just recovered from her face also receded. Her heart seemed to be pricked by a needle, and she turned around unconsciously.
Seeing her turn around, Zongzheng Wuyou's eyes lit up, waiting for her to take a step. At this moment, there was the sound of chiseling the wall above his head, louder than the other. When Zongzheng Wuyou came in, he destroyed the mechanism outside, so he could only open the stone gate from the inside. Those people must have seen him for three days. Going out, in a panic, I want to get through this tunnel.
All over the sky suddenly woke up, and all rationality instantly recovered. If she hadn't paid homage to Fu Tzu, then there might still be room for trouble, but now that the ceremony has been completed, the marriage between the two countries is not a child's play, a Qiyun Kingdom, plus a Lintian Kingdom's commander-in-chief, even the Lintian Emperor , I'm afraid I can't change anything. What's more, isn't it enough for her to be deceived by Zongzheng Wuyou once? How could she have such a short memory! Do you have to wait for him to tell her as a victor that this is just another trick of his, to prove that there is nothing in this world that Zongzheng Wuyou can't get. How can he let him choose her feelings, she is a person, not his property.
Thinking of this, her heart returned to calm again, she raised her chin slightly, her eyes were indifferent and cold, and said: "I will never trust you again! There are some roads, if you take a step, there is no room for turning back." After finishing speaking, she turned around resolutely, She went up the steps and never looked back, so she couldn't see the eyes of the person behind her shattered, and she laughed silently.
The setting sun was like blood, staining half of the sky red. By the hot spring pool, people kneeled on the floor, their foreheads pressed against the cold ground, not daring to breathe.
Lintian Emperor Longyan was furious, and shouted to the stewards and guards of Li Wangfu: "My emperor has been in this underground stone room for three days, why didn't anyone come to report to me? You dog slaves, how can I raise you?" What's the use? What's the use? What if something happens to my emperor's son, all of you will die!" He said one emperor's son, which is a unique title for Zongzheng Wuyou, and his worry was palpable, without his usual composure. . Thinking of the time thirteen years ago when Wuyou came out of here dying, Lin Tianhuang became even more anxious. He walked to the muddy land in front of him, regardless of his identity, raised his leg and kicked violently at the servant who was digging the tunnel a little slower, and shouted angrily: "The speed is not fast, before dark, I won't see you!" My prince, I have punished your nine clans!"
Those people responded in horror: "Follow the order."
The loess is flying all over the sky, reflecting the residual red of the setting sun. Cold sweat fell like a waterfall, splashing the soil all over the place. Eunuch Chen moved a chair, but Emperor Lintian couldn't sit still, his face was frighteningly gloomy, and he paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. All the ministers behind him lowered their eyes and nodded, not daring to look up.
Suddenly there was a moderate booming sound from one side of the rock, causing everyone who was already extremely nervous to tremble, and then looked up, a woman walked out of the moved stone door, This woman is really astonishingly beautiful, she seems to be Princess Rong Le who disappeared with King Li. Everyone looked happy, but they only saw the woman, not King Li. Looking at her appearance at the moment, her complexion is pale, her footsteps are weak, her long hair is scattered on her thin fragrant shoulders, her white clothes are disheveled, and the red wedding dress she wore three days ago has long since disappeared.
Everyone breathed in, looking at this situation, people unconsciously thought about what would happen when she was in the same room with Li Wang's lonely men and widows in the past three days. They all looked at General Fu standing behind His Majesty the Emperor. It is a great humiliation for a man to be pointed out that his wife is unclean on the day of his wedding, and after worshiping, his wife is kidnapped and spends three days and nights with others. Faced with this situation, it is indeed necessary to have a certain ability to bear.
Bo Chou clenched his hands secretly, watching her walk slowly, her slender body would fall sideways when the wind blows, there was a trace of unidentified gloom and pity in his eyes.
Seeing so many people outside, Man Tian was taken aback for a moment, then approached and saluted, "Greetings, His Majesty the Emperor."
Emperor Lintian was stunned for a moment, and there was a flash of amazement in his eyes. No wonder there was such a big mess this time, it really is a beauty! She was the only one he saw, his eyes darkened, and he hurriedly stepped up to go to the stone room, but stopped after walking a few steps, thought for a moment, turned around, his eyes were gloomy, and he asked in a calm voice : "You are Princess Rongle?"
All over the sky replied respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Emperor Lintian walked up to her, stared at her sharply, and asked coldly: "Princess Rong Le, are you guilty?"
Man Tian looked up in surprise, frowned and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, Rong Le doesn't know." What crime did she commit? She really doesn't know.
Emperor Lintian slapped the armrest of the chair heavily with one hand, stood up abruptly, and said angrily: "Huh! You are so brave, at the palace dinner six days ago, you disguised yourself as a man and entered the palace, and even found a fake princess to replace you in the palace. Choosing a husband, this is deceitful! As a concubine princess, you stay in Princess Rongle's mansion restlessly, but you flaunt yourself everywhere, Goo Kezhen's emperor comes first, and then you come to confuse the great general of Weiguo, It is really a heinous crime to try to cause internal turmoil in our court by trying to drive a wedge between King Li and the Great General of the Wei State. Come, someone, take her down, put her in prison, and wait for disposal." His voice was extremely loud, as if It was the inner force that was concentrated, passed straight through the unclosed stone door, and passed to the underground stone chamber.
Man Tian was startled, the corners of his mouth curled up in an arc of ridicule unconsciously, the words of Emperor Lintian, for example, picked Zongzheng Wuyou's fault completely. All the guilt will be on her shoulders alone. Create civil turmoil in the court? What a hat, it was put on her head just like that, it seems that Emperor Lin wanted her life on purpose!
Bo Chou hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty..."" Before he could speak, Emperor Lintian's eyes were sharp as knives, and he looked straight at his eyes, cutting off his voice. "Didn't Fu Aiqing want to plead for her? She has lost all of Aiqing's face and shamed Aiqing for the rest of her life. He should hate her! "
Fu Tzu was taken aback, he naturally understood the implication behind the words. Therefore, he said, "I would like to report to your Majesty, I am starting from the perspective of peace between the two countries. I hope that your Majesty will not affect the century-old friendship between the two countries because of a woman, and cause troops to meet at the border. I implore Your Majesty to think twice."
Emperor Lintian snorted coldly, and said: "If Emperor Qiyun really cares about the friendship between the two countries so much, he should understand my execution of the princess. If he can't understand, once a border war breaks out, then there will be trouble for Fu Aiqing. I believe that as long as With Bo Aiqing here, no one can even think of stepping into the territory of my Lintian Kingdom."
Fu Zhao was about to speak, but Emperor Lintian waved his hands impatiently, and said, "Okay, I've made up my mind, Aiqing doesn't need to say more. Someone, take her down!"
She smiled bitterly all over the sky, but she didn't refute, in fact, she didn't even have the strength to speak, so she could only let the two guards come forward and restrain her.
When the Ninth Prince saw it, he hurriedly said: "Father, please calm down, this matter needs to be discussed in the long term"..."
"Enough." Emperor Lintian interrupted sharply: "I said, the agreement has been decided. Whoever dares to intercede again will be punished with the same crime! Take it away." The supreme majesty exclusive to the emperor does not seem to have the slightest turning around room.
The Ninth Prince had no choice but to stay. "Nah, back off. The surrounding officials knew that if Princess Rong Le was executed, the war between the two countries would be inevitable, but at this time, even General Wa and the Ninth Prince had run into a wall, and they dared not say a word. They all looked down at their shoes, but they didn't dare to lift them up. Bo Cho and the Ninth Prince watched the woman being dragged down the mountain by the guards, and they were helpless.
"Let go of her." A cold commanding voice, with a natural kingly aura, makes people want to surrender unconsciously. The guards instinctively stopped their movements, and they didn't have to look back, knowing that apart from Zongzheng Wuyou, no one else dared to issue orders with such an attitude in front of Emperor Lintian.
The Ninth Prince was overjoyed, and immediately went up to greet him, and shouted: "Seventh Brother, you finally came out, I am really anxious to death."
After leaving the stone chamber, Zongzheng Wuyou returned to the previous King Li who was so high above and defiant. His eyes were like a pool in hell, cold and evil, his thin lips parted slightly, and he said calmly, "Let her go."
When Emperor Lintian saw him, he finally felt relieved, but he also understood one thing. He took a few steps forward and looked at Zongzheng Wuyou with complicated eyes, with worries, love, anger, and resentment, all of which finally turned into a long sigh, and he said helplessly, "Wuyou, what are you doing again?" It’s a nonsense. The stone room will be closed in the future, and no one is allowed to enter again.”
Zongzheng Wuyou didn't even look at him as if he didn't hear him, his tone was still calm and indifferent, but with a bit more firm strength, he said, "I said, let her go!"
The Emperor Lintian looked at the woman who was held up by the guards, and said: "Okay, since King Li begged for mercy, this matter is over, and no one is allowed to mention it again. Do you understand?" At the end, the voice It had become very cold and severe, and everyone hurriedly said: "Zunzhi." The voices were neat and tidy.
Fu Tiao stepped forward to support her unstable body, and said softly, "Be careful."
Man Tian desperately controlled himself not to look at Zongzheng Wuyou, only nodded to Fu Chou, forced the corners of his lips to give him a faint smile, and borrowed his strength to stand firm, Fang said: "Thank you!"
Zongzheng Wuyou looked at them coldly, with his hands tightly cuffed in his sleeves, but his face was always indifferent and calm, without the slightest wave. He took a deep breath, turned his eyes away, ignored everyone, went straight forward, passed her body, and walked steadily down the mountain step by step.
The wind gently blew his black hair flying, his back was slightly stiff and straight, and there were lines of resoluteness and indifference. The tall, white figure, reflected in the afterglow of the setting sun, added a bit of bleakness and desolation, isolating him from the world of everyone behind him.
Beauty with White Hair and Pain in Thousands of Ways 047 A Ride in the Red Dust Concubine Laughs
Time flies like a ridge, and it is a year in a blink of an eye. In the midsummer afternoon, the sun is like fire.
The Palace of the General of the State of Wei, Qing Mi Garden. In the lush and verdant bamboo forest, Man Yao found a shady place and set the chess table, holding a red piece in his hand, staring at the chess board in a daze.
Master, why are you here? "Ling'er came striding forward, and asked with a smile as she walked.
Man Yao looked calm and said: The weather is getting hotter and hotter, I can't sleep, it's cool here, I'll come out for a while. "
Ling'er sat down beside her, picked up her shoulders and fanned her lightly, and said, "Master, do you want to play chess? I'll accompany you." After four years with her master, although she didn't learn very well, she looked at her Playing chess with myself always feels too lonely.
Manyao shook her head lightly, and said with a smile: You, half of you, you can't stand the effort of a stick of incense. What about Xiao Sha? Recently, he has always been in a hurry, busier than me. "
When Ling'er heard this, she immediately pouted and complained, yes, master, every time I go to him for something, I can't find anyone, so you have to talk about him. "
Manyao smiled slightly, and just looked up to see Steward Liang walking towards this side with his servants holding a few boxes outside the bamboo forest, and saluted to the ground, "Mrs. A reward from the emperor. Madam, please take a look." She glanced at it symbolically, and it was nothing more than gold, silver, jewels, silk and satin, and when she saw the last exquisite and small wooden box, her eyes lit up and she stood up immediately.
Ling'er asked curiously, "Master, what is this?"
litchi. "The deep red color still looks very fresh. Manyao took one in her hand, and it felt icy and cool to the touch. In this intense summer day, she felt unusually comfortable. Some crushed ice. In this world, there are very few fruits, especially lychees that are not easy to store. In this era of underdeveloped transportation, they are often transported to the capital and are no longer fresh. Ice is even more rare.
Manager Liang smiled respectfully: Madam is really well-informed. Xiangmei, leave this box of lychees for my wife.
Man Yao waved his hand and said: "No need, save a little to try something new, and send the rest to the cellar for use when the general returns home."
yes ma'am. Manager Liang responded with a pleased smile, and then led the crowd to retreat. Manyao scratched the lychee shell, a long-lost sense of familiarity rose from the bottom of her heart, she couldn't remember how long she hadn't eaten lychee. Qiyun Kingdom does not have these fruits, and only the Imperial Palace has them in the capital of Lintian Kingdom.
Ling'er smiled and said, master, the general is so kind to you, no matter what His Majesty rewards you, the general will always send someone back for the master to taste. "
Manyao smiled slightly, her eyes drooped, and she didn't speak. Ling'er tilted her head to look at her, always felt that there was a faint and indescribable melancholy look between her brows, so she asked master, do you know? Now, all the women in the capital are envious of their master for marrying a good husband. But, why do I feel that you, master... are not happy at all? "
Manyao was taken aback, these days, she hadn't thought about whether she was happy or unhappy. He treated her so well, so good that she couldn't be blamed, except for business, no matter where he went, he would take her with him. , no matter where she was, he always cared for her and cared for her, never tabooing the presence of outsiders. This kind of caring made her feel unreal and too deliberate. It was more like showing others how good she was when he was with the world. Even so, she should be content. Fu Zhao has no concubines, so she doesn't have to face the intrigue between women. Such a peaceful life has always been what she wants, but why can't she be happy
Ling'er said again that before coming to Heaven, I felt that the master seemed to have a lot of things on his mind. Later, when he came to the Kingdom of Heaven, the master's thoughts were more than before. Master, it's been so long, are you still complaining about the emperor? "
After a year, it doesn't matter whether you complain or not. Everyone has their own position. After all, her life is very good now. Manyao stood up slowly, looked at the floating clouds in the sky, said in a faint voice, I am not unhappy, and it is good as it is now. "Heart is like still water, life is peaceful and there is nothing wrong with it. She carved a lychee, handed it to Ling'er, and said: You can try it too."
Ling'er took a sip, nodded repeatedly and praised: "En, it's really delicious." It's a pity that the box is too small. "
Man Yao said: "This box is already quite a lot. I heard that only the south of the Yangtze River produces lychees. It must have been so fresh when they were transported to the capital. I don't know how many people were changed along the way, and how many horses were taken down.
Ling'er didn't understand very well, so she just said: "If the master likes it, let the general send someone to the south of the Yangtze River to hurry and bring it back. Anyway, the general has a lot of people under his command, and he is so kind to the master, so he will definitely agree."
Manyao laughed and said, "You think I'm Concubine Yang Gui." A concubine riding Hongchen smiled, but no one knew it was Lizhi. The poignant love between the Chuan Ge woman and the emperor left nothing but proof of the sentence "the most ruthless emperor's family". She never wanted to shake the world, but only wanted a smooth and stable life. However, such a modest wish could not be fulfilled in the end.
Ling'er asked curiously, "Who is Yang Guifei?"
Manyao said: "An ancient man."
Ling'er oh", she seemed to think of something, and said: "The master said that the lychees are produced in the south of the Yangtze River, isn't the south of the Yangtze River the fiefdom of King Li?",
Man Yao's hands trembled, and the half-lined Ou branches fell to the ground and rolled far away. It's been a long time since that name was mentioned. A year ago, after three days in the dark room, he resolutely left the capital and went to the fief despite the strong opposition of Emperor Lintian. No one knew the reason. During the New Year, tributes are offered in all places, but there is no tribute in the south of the Yangtze River. With his temperament and the disgust of the imperial palace at that time, how could he rush to send lychees to Beijing? She was lost in thought by herself, and she didn't hear Ling'er calling her several times.
Rongle, what are you thinking? So engrossed. "I don't know when, Bochou has appeared beside her.
Manyao came back to his senses, and smiled slightly, why did the general come back so early today? "
Fu Tzu shook her hand habitually, pulled her to sit down, and said with a smile: Why, don't you like me coming back early? "
Man Yao smiled and said: "Of course not. I just think it's a strange thing." She was used to him holding her hand, and since they were husband and wife, she always tried to accept each other's approach. After sitting down, she suddenly turned her eyes, looked at him, and said with a smile, "The lychee bestowed by His Majesty today is very fresh."
Bo Chou was stunned, frowned and said, "Lychee? Your Majesty's reward today is only gold, silver and jewelry. Where did you get the lychee from?"
Man Yao was stunned, and Ling'er who was next to him quickly said: "General, there are some, and the servants also ate them. Look, there was one accidentally dropped on the ground just now.
Following the direction of her fingers, Fu Tuo saw the round stalk falling on the ground, his eyes sharpened immediately, and he called out "Xiang Ying" to the outside of the bamboo forest.
The subordinates are here. "
Fu Tzu turned around and asked, "When did His Majesty reward you with an extra lychee?" "Xiang Ying said: "Back to the general, the subordinates were ordered by the general to send His Majesty's reward back to the mansion. Not long after leaving the palace, Eunuch Chen chased after the subordinates and said that we took less. He also said, this box of lychees is for my wife. "
Man Yao's calm heart suddenly felt a little flustered, and he held his hand, his fingertips were a little pale. The Emperor Lintian had lingering fears about her because of what happened a year ago, why did he give her a rare thing for no reason
Fu Tzu's complexion was dark, his eyes were deep, he looked back at her, and said: "It seems that he has already arrived in the capital. The speed is really fast, such a long journey took only five days." She lowered her eyes, Thick eyelashes like a fan trembled slightly, and asked softly involuntarily, who is the general talking about? "
Fu Tuoqing smiled elegantly, that smile seemed to have a special meaning, and said: "Of course it is Prince Li."
Manyao knew that this was the answer, but her heart was still a little confused unconsciously. Fu Zhao held her hand again, and asked what's wrong with you, why is your hand so cold in such a hot day? "
Man Yao withdrew his hand indiscriminately, picked up a chess piece at random, and said with a faint smile: "I'm fine. He", I mean King Li, doesn't he like the palace? Why come back",
Fu Zhao didn't answer and asked instead: How does Rong Le know that he doesn't like the palace? "
He was obviously smiling, and it was a gentle smile as always, but she felt a chill inexplicably. Man Yao turned her eyes and spread her palms, unknowingly, what she was holding was a sunspot. She lowered her eyes and remained silent for a while.
Fu Zhao didn't seem to care, and smiled again: "Seven days later, there will be a flower viewing feast in the palace. You go with me."
Another banquet, she frowned. Bo Choo held her hand, together with the chess piece in his palm, he was very strong, as if he wanted to crush the chess piece in his palm. After a while, Fang Dao, Rong Le, I know you never like that kind of occasion, but this time is His Majesty's order, all civil and military officials must bring their wives and daughters to participate. So, I just said, "I have wronged you."
How sincerely he spoke! Man Yao pursed her lips, feeling wronged, this was nothing wrong with it, it was just a social interaction that she didn't like. However, why did Emperor Lintian let ministers and their wives and daughters participate? Still in the way of imperial decree! She nodded and said softly, "Okay."
Fu Tuo smiled and took her shoulders, helped her up, and said softly, "Don't worry, I'm here. I won't let others bully you. She smiled lightly and bowed her head without saying a word.
Night has fallen, and the sky is dark before the moon exits.
Qingyou Garden, the most remote garden in the General's Mansion of the State of Wei, has deep vegetation and looks a bit desolate, but it also feels a little more natural. There is a natural pond near the courtyard wall in the garden, and the water in the pond is very cool. When summer comes, she likes to come here to sit quietly after nightfall, brushing the water surface with water, which can calm the hot and boring heart in summer.
Bochou accompanied her here tonight, standing behind her, quietly watching her stroke the water, without saying a word. Zhou Wen was very quiet, and the sporadic dim yellow candlelight projected in the water far away, reflecting her white and slender fingers, with an indescribably touching beauty. Fu Tiao resisted the steps he wanted to move forward, and gently looked away, looking in a distant direction.
This garden is very spacious, and there are only a few servants living here, and no one usually comes here, so the people in the garden are more presumptuous. Unobstructed.
From a room in the west, three maids came out, carrying food in their hands, and sat down at the stone table in the middle of the yard. A girl sitting in the middle, eighteen or nineteen years old, looks very pretty, with a look of arrogance that is different from ordinary servants. The girl on the left chased away the little bugs flying in front of her, and complained: "There are the most bugs in this garden, when can we leave this broken garden and serve in the front yard?" "As she spoke, she pushed the food in front of the woman in the middle, and said Miss Xun, here, you eat first. When you become the side wife, don't forget us!"
Miss Xun looked like a future master, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will never forget you."
The girl on the right curled her lips and said, I see, the general probably forgot about you. Madam has been here for more than a year. Who doesn't know that the general loves Madam so much, how can he still remember you. Besides, Madam is so beautiful, just like a fairy, look at you, how can you compare? "
When Miss Xun heard this, her complexion darkened immediately, and she snorted coldly: "What can a dirty woman be, no matter how beautiful she is?" When I was fifteen, I became a general. At least I gave the general a clean body. Can she compare? "
You are lucky, isn't it just once? Still a surprise. I'm so weird, the general was injured and unconscious at the time, how did he touch you? "
Miss Xun's face turned pale, and then she smiled mysteriously: Well, I won't tell you. "
Several people laughed and laughed, and the girl on the left said again, "Hey, do you think it's strange? It's been more than a year. I heard that" the general has never entered the wife's room at night. Why do you say this is? "
Needless to say, I think her body is dirty. Don't look at holding her in his hand during the day like a treasure in his heart, how can there be no thorn in his heart? Men, the most unbearable thing is that their own women are not clean, so they might as well go to a brothel to find a prostitute. "
makes sense. However, having said that, Prince Li has a noble status and is His Majesty's most beloved son. He might be the future emperor. Moreover, he is so handsome. "If he can take a fancy to me, I would die."
You have a good idea, Prince Li can take a fancy to you. Go dreaming! Miss Xun pushed the woman's head, no matter how good Daoli Wang is, I don't like it either. I just like, general, general... Miss Xun suddenly covered her mouth, looked at the man standing in the darkness in front of her, her eyes widened in horror, the bowl in her hand fell to the ground and broke into three pieces, and the bowl fell into three pieces. The food was scattered, and the eggs were stained with crimson vegetable juice, just like the bloody head that had been chopped off on the platform and rolled on the ground. The other two girls followed suit, and when they saw Bo Chou, their faces turned pale with fright, their bodies trembled, they hurriedly knelt down, and said in a trembling voice: "General, General..." Spare me! "
048 Prove your innocence
Fu Tuoding looked at them, his usual gentle expression remained unchanged, but there was a bit of coldness in his eyes, and the bodies of the three girls kneeling on the ground trembled like chaff. He just heard him shouting: Xiang Ying, go and call Liang Sheng over,
Steward Liang, who was in his forties, hurried over in less than a moment, his face was terrified, his forehead was covered with cold sweat on a scorching hot day, and before he had time to wipe it off, he hurried forward and saluted, "General, madam.
Fu Tiaodi glanced at him, and said in a voice without any emotion, "Liang Sheng, you have been in charge of the mansion for a long time, why are the servants in the mansion becoming more and more unruly? Talk about the master behind his back!"
Steward Liang was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, saying: "The servants have neglected their duty and failed to train them well, causing them to offend the general and his wife. The servants are convicted, please the general "punish!"
"You should be punished." Fu Tuo paused, turned his eyes, and turned to look at the woman behind him, only to see Man Tian standing quietly, expressionless.
Sometimes, having inner strength is not an absolutely good thing. Her hearing is better than that of ordinary people, so that in the past year, she has heard the gossip like what she heard tonight more than once or twice. From the initial tingling pain to the current numbness, she has long been used to it. Since you can't stop other people's mouths, -海-天#Chinese first text version, if you want to avoid pain, you can only numb your own heart. She looked at the three kneeling on the ground so calmly, lowered her eyes, and said nothing.
Fu Tzu walked over to hold her hand, and said with a gentle smile, "Ma'am, how do you think... how should they be punished?" "He always called her his wife in front of people, and he only called her Rongle in private.
Man Tian was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that he would ask her opinion. She has been in the mansion for more than a year, and has been living a refreshing and leisurely life. She does not interfere with the trivial affairs of the mansion, and does not want to bother. Normally, no servants would dare to act presumptuously in front of her. Since entering the mansion, she has never punished any servants, so how could she know the rules of the general's mansion. Moreover, among these four people, apart from the two maids on the left and right, one is a housekeeper who has been with him for many years, and he must be someone he trusts very much; while the other is a maid, but listening to their conversation, it seems that he has done something to him. For a woman, if she doesn't know the rules of the mansion, it's not good to be punished lightly or severely. She frowned and thought for a moment, and finally threw the question back, and said lightly, "General, Rong Le is usually lazy. I don't know the rules in this mansion very well. "Let the general decide. "
Fu Tzu frowned, nodded with a smile, Fang turned around and said, "Xiang Ying, take Liang Sheng down, charge twenty with a stick, and withhold monthly money for three months. As for the three of them talking nonsense, talking nonsense, Breaking the rules of the mansion, they cannot be kept. Drag them to the torture room and kill them with sticks."
"No, don't, general, I know I was wrong. I will never dare to do this again. I beg the general to spare you this time." General, please forgive me. Fu Tzu rushed over, and was about to grab his clothes and beg for mercy, but was pushed away by two young men, and was about to drag him out of the Qingyou Garden. That girl Xun's body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground, her eyes widened even more, she was extremely frightened. She knew that the rules in the magistrate's mansion were strict, and there would be no good results if the general broke them on the spot, but she never thought that the general would execute them because of this, and burst into tears immediately, even forgetting to beg for mercy.
Man Tian was stunned, unexpectedly, he couldn't help but blurted out: Wait a minute. "Although she was already angry with life and death in the court, she still couldn't help but be surprised. The General's Mansion has always given her the feeling of calm and peace, and the Wochou looks so gentle and elegant, not at all like the kind who would take human life as a joke. Such a cruel and cruel person. At this moment, he was turning his head and smiling gently at her. It was really hard for her to imagine that a person could give a cruel order to kill with such a charming smile.
Seeing her silent for a long time, his eyes suddenly had a sharp light, as if to say, she has given up the right to dispose of it, why should she stop it. She also knew that she had already said that it was up to him to make the decision, so there should be no further interference, but after all, it was Sancha's life! She has been in this world for four years, has the honorable status of a princess and has the capital to regard human life as worthless, but she will never hurt human life at will. She doesn't think she's kind, she just doesn't like blood. But Fu Zhao is different, he is a general, gallops on the battlefield, and kills tens of thousands of people in his hands. How can such a person be as gentle and harmless as he appears on the surface
When a girl saw her stop her, like a drowning person finding a life-saving driftwood, she desperately broke free from the two servants who were holding her up, rushed over and hugged her leg, crying so much Exhausted, I begged: Madam, this servant knows that you are generous and kind, and has a bodhisattva heart, please save this servant." I really know my mistake, please spare this servant, this servant does not want to die." Madam, please, , "She begged incoherently, with terrified tears streaming down her face, putting all her hopes on the woman she caught.
Just now she was a woman who they said was not clean or even a prostitute, but now she has transformed into a generous and kind lady with a bodhisattva heart, smiling ironically all over the sky, human nature is like this. She sighed softly.
Fu Zhao winked, and the young man hurried forward to push the girl away. Fu Zhao stretched out his hand and grabbed her shoulder, and asked in an extremely elegant and gentle voice, "Why is Madam sighing? Are they too noisy?" Shadow, let them be quiet. "Xiang Ying responded, moved his body, and immediately touched the dumb points of the two of them with his fingers. Yue Tun suddenly fell silent, and only a few of them could be heard panting.
The evening wind was blowing, and the slightest breath filled his chest, looking at Fu Zhao's usual smile all over the sky, feeling a little uneasy for no reason.
Wo Cho turned his head and said, "Madam has something to say," but it's okay to say it. "
After thinking about it all over the sky, he said slowly, "General, they" just. Unobstructed, small punishments and big punishments are fine, there is no need for their lives, right? "She naturally knew that what these three people said was not only her sore spot, but also the shame that a man would most like to be uncovered.
The gentle smile on the corner of Fu Tzu's mouth was still there, but his eyes gradually sank, like a bottomless swamp. He looked at her for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Okay, since you are madam, you have already opened your legs." "How can a husband refute Madam's wishes? Let them all die, drag it down, and be sentenced to death." The two girls on the ground rolled their eyes and passed out after hearing this. Immediately someone came up and took them away
Man Tian's body froze, and he was dumbfounded, but the root of his tongue was hit, and he couldn't speak anymore.
Miss Xun grabbed a big tree desperately, and refused to let go, a bright red bloodstain was printed on the rough bark. She cried so sadly and felt extremely wronged, and said: "No, General, you can't treat me like this." I, I'm different from them"
Fu Tzu was still smiling, but his eyes were icy cold. He approached her, pinched her chin, and asked lightly: Oh? Where is the difference",
Facing his handsome face, Miss Xun became. After eating, he said: I, I, husband and wife for one day and one hundred days of grace, I have... have..."
Fu Zhaodao: "what?" explain. "
"One night husband... the love of husband and wife",
"Really?" Fu Zhao asked with a smile. Miss Xun suddenly couldn't continue, her heart fell into his smile, beating as fast as a drum, as if she wanted to use up all the heartbeats for the rest of her life at this moment, she didn't notice that his voice was completely Emotionally cold.
A gleam of light flashed across Fu Zhao's eyes, and he suddenly squeezed his fingers hard, only to hear a click sound, the woman opened her eyes in horror, the eyeballs burst out due to severe pain, and there was a scream from the depths of her throat, her bones were broken, She opened her lips and looked at the man in front of her who was still smiling gently and elegantly in disbelief, her tears rolled down like broken beads.
Fu Tiao let go of her, and the woman lay on the ground, her complexion pale as paper, her body twitching violently, unable to utter a sound.
Man Tian's heart trembled, he frowned unconsciously and said: "General, you, why are you doing this?" She is your woman after all. "
Fu Tzu turned his head. In the dark light, his pupils were dark and deep, and his emotions could not be seen at all, or he had no emotions at all. "My woman?" He snorted with a chuckle, turned his eyes to look at the woman on the ground who had not shed a drop of blood but was in extreme pain, and said, "This general is also very strange, how can I touch her when I am unconscious? It's you? Why don't you do this?" "He stretched out his hand and pointed at the two of them casually, you guys, go and verify for Ben Jiang whether he has touched this woman before? Take him into the house."
Miss Xun trembled violently, becoming more and more terrified and speechless, her eyes full of despair. She got up desperately, and slammed her head hard at the stone table. But before he touched the edge of the stone table, he was grabbed by the arms of the two young servants and dragged to the side room.
The shrill scream pierced the sky of the night, shaking people's hearts, rendering the desolate garden extremely strange.
Looking at this nominal husband in shock, seeing his usual gentle expression on his handsome face, as if nothing had happened, she couldn't help but clenched her hands tightly. On this scorching hot day, she felt a wave of cold passing over her body, from head to toe, and then suddenly plunged into the bottom of her heart, she shivered involuntarily.
When it was time to drink tea, the door of the house was opened, and someone was holding a white cloth towel with a few drops of blood on it.
Fu Zhao glanced lightly, then turned to look at her, as if to say that he had nothing to do with that woman. Man Tian pursed his lips, his expression looked very indifferent and without waves, but his heart was like rough waves, and it was difficult to calm down for a moment. Everything that Fu Zhao did today, in the eyes of others, seemed to be for her. He can completely avoid her and do all this again, but he is in front of her, why? Is it just to prove the innocence between him and this woman. Don't say she doesn't care anymore, even if she doesn't care, what can those few drops of blood prove? Or, is he taking the opportunity to remind her of something? Why not another day, but the day when we learned that Zongzheng Wuyou had returned to the capital
Fu Tiao waved at them, turned around and smiled softly, and said, "Madam, it's getting late, let's go back to the room to rest. Xiang Ying, I'm going to rest in Qingmi Garden tonight, so you don't have to follow."
Man Tian's body shook violently, instantly stiff as iron.
Red face, white hair, pain
