When Spring Comes

Chapter 226: Emotions are not mutual

Views:

Gritting her teeth, Sun Liuxiang took a deep breath and sat up.

This journey almost broke her bones, Gong Yuhou surrounded her by surprise, Yu Wenxi took everyone to hide in Tibet, and arrived at Wushan smoothly.

It would not be so easy to attack Yuhou after entering the mountain, so Yu Wenxi heaved a sigh of relief and began to contact generals and princes from all over the country to build camps in places where Wushan was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

He Chang'an sent a lobbyist over, saying that as long as Yu Wenxi surrendered, his life would be spared, and he would just go back to Beijing to see the Empress Dowager.

Yu Wenxi snorted coldly, cut off the lobbyist, and stubbornly continued to look for helpers.

However, under the current situation, no one is willing to help except He Wangye.

Yu Wenxi was like a trapped beast, wandering around Wushan irritably, when it started to rain, Zhan Shui hurriedly led people to look for him, and Sun Liuxiang also volunteered to go up the mountain, twisting his huge body, and struggling around with an umbrella looking for.

Half an hour later, she saw Yu Wenxi in a cave.

The dignified Prince Xi, now in a state of distress, is soaked through and his bun is untied. He looks like a tramp. Sun Liuxiang felt a little distressed, and hurried over to give him the cloak she was wearing, but Lord Xi picked up the firewood next to him and threw it over without even thinking about it.

"Get out! This king knows to go back!"

If a woman sees him like this, what face does he have

After being hit by firewood several times, Sun Liuxiang backed away again and again, and said aggrievedly: "Everyone is worried about you, that's why we came out to look for you."

"I don't need anyone to worry about this king!" Yu Wenxi snorted coldly: "It's not that I want to seek death or life, it's just to relax my mind."

"But..." Sun Liuxiang looked outside: "It's raining."

"This king can't get wet here!" He waved impatiently: "Get out, if you stay here again, this king will go out and find another place!"

Sun Liuxiang was startled and hurried out.

Seeing her huge back disappearing through the door, Yu Wenxi heaved a sigh of relief. Leaning on the stone wall and thinking about things quietly.

He may indeed be doomed to lose, but he is not reconciled to admitting defeat like this. He must persist until the end no matter what. As long as the Queen Mother is there, he will not die anyway.

After staring blankly for a while, seeing that the rain outside was about to stop, he also heard Zhan Shui's voice calling him, so he simply got up and walked outside.

"What!" When he came out of the cave, he felt a large pile of meat beside him. Yu Wenxi was startled, took two steps back and took a closer look, and his face immediately turned dark: "Didn't this king tell you to go? You are squatting here." What are you doing?"

The oil-paper umbrella can't stop her huge body. After squatting here for so long, her body is completely wet and her flesh is exposed. It's disgusting to watch.

Sun Liuxiang smiled, stood up and wiped her skirt: "I am afraid that you will get lost later..."

Who would get lost in this mountain? Rolling his eyes, looking at Zhanshui walking in the distance, Prince Xi said to her angrily: "Go back by yourself, don't follow me."

This body is too embarrassing.

Sun Liuxiang was taken aback for a moment, looked down at herself, and then nodded obediently.

After hearing his master's words, Zhan Shui glanced at Sun Liuxiang and said nothing, but after walking away, he still couldn't help whispering: "My lord, there's her lord behind her, is it really okay for you to do this? "

"Hmph, you don't know her too well." Yu Wenxi said flatly: "That fat man, she will only smirk when you treat her well, and she will also smirk when you treat her badly. This king has tried it, even if it is a little too much. She's not angry at all, and just clings to me, so there's no need to treat her like serving her master."

Zhan Shui was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously turned around.

At the entrance of the cave, Sun Liuxiang was still standing still.

Although he was a little darker and fatter, Zhanshui suddenly felt that the princess had a good temper, and he really liked his master.

There is an ugly side in human nature, that is, when others treat you unconditionally and hold you in their palms, you will become arrogant, and you will not respond to others with the same emotions, but will look down on others. This is the subconsciousness of people, and it will consume other people's good intentions until they see you clearly.

This kind of subconsciousness is not only applicable to love, but also to friendship, so no one should be too humble, after all, people are equal in emotion, and no one owes anyone at the beginning.

Sun Liuxiang blindly treats Yu Wenxi well, and the consequence is that Yu Wenxi treats everyone else well, but treats her extraordinarily harshly.

For example, many concubines sent ginger soup tonics after he came back from the rain, and Sun Liuxiang naturally gave them too, but Prince Xi thanked the other concubines softly, and didn't say a word to Sun Liuxiang.

Another example is that for the next march, the carriage will be abandoned, and there are not enough horses. Yu Wenxi gave horses to other concubines, but let Sun Liuxiang follow behind on foot, in the name of helping her lose weight.

Fatty Hei became silent. Although she still laughed when she saw Prince Xi, she talked less and less.

The dull Yu Wenxi would not notice this change, he only knew that Sun Liuxiang was a funny fat man, he would step on stilts when he was unhappy, and fall down, making himself laugh out loud, but the rest of the time he didn't think about it at all. saw her.

"It's so miserable." Hua Chun shook his head, pulled Yu Wenjie's arm beside him and said, "I can't stand listening to you, Your Majesty, hurry up and bring Yu Wenxi back, and send Princess Liuxiang to the palace. My concubine wants to give her ideological counseling work."

After she said that, the emperor naturally said nothing, and ordered Huo Zichong and He Changan to bring Prince Xi back within three days.

So Yu Wenxi took the last few thousand guards and was forced to the edge of the cliff by the pursuers.

"My lord." Sun Liuxiang said anxiously: "Surrender, at least you still have your life when you go back."

"Do you need to say it?!" Yu Wenxi became furious, yelled at her, and then threw the letter of surrender in front of the three armies.

After struggling for a whole month, Prince Xi was finally brought back to the capital by Huo Zichong.

After the war, Daliang hadn't recovered yet, and the streets of Yanjing were deserted, with a few pedestrians occasionally.

Sun Liuxiang accompanied Yu Wenxi back in the prison car, and couldn't help sighing: "It would be great if there were no wars."

Yu Wenxi, who was in front of her, turned her head and gave her a hard look: "What's the point of being an afterthought?"

Shrinking her neck, Sun Liuxiang stopped talking.

The two were brought into the palace, which was also in a state of reconstruction, only the Zichen Hall was intact.

The emperor and Hua Chun sat on the main seat, watching them come in, and then they were pushed down to kneel down.

"Your Majesty's incident is very lively." Hua Chun smiled and took out an abacus, and said: "Daliang's military and civilian casualties are roughly 30,000, and the economic impact cannot be estimated. If you fight Yanjing, you will have to go back five years. , have you calculated these?"

Yu Wenxi knelt and said nothing.

Sun Liuxiang whispered: "My lord doesn't want to..."

"He doesn't want to, could it be that the emperor used a knife to force him to rebel?" Hua Chun raised his eyebrows.

Sun Liuxiang shook her head: "Everyone has what they want, the prince just tried hard to get it, because being in the royal family, the price he paid is naturally higher than that of ordinary people."

"Shut up." Yu Wenxi said in a deep voice, looked up at the emperor and said, "This time I lost, I will kill or cut you as you please."

Yu Wenjie looked at him indifferently: "Don't you have the luck that the queen mother will save you?"

Slightly taken aback, Yu Wenxi pursed his lips. He was indeed taking such a chance, after all, with his mother's temperament, she would never let him die.

"I gave you a chance." The emperor said: "You didn't cherish it. Until now kneeling here, I don't think there is any need to forgive you."

With a jump in his heart, Yu Wenxi raised his head in disbelief, and looked around again.

The Queen Mother is not here! Yu Wenjie really wanted to kill him

"Give you a cup of dove poison." The emperor waved his hand, and a palace man next to him brought up a tray with a glass of wine on top.

"A cup?" Yu Wenxi frowned: "What do you mean?"

Hua Chun smiled and said, "You two, this one cup is enough."

Sun Liuxiang was stunned and tilted her head. Before she could react, she saw Prince Xi reaching out to take down the wine glass.

"Don't!" She quickly snatched it over: "Just one cup, so I can drink it by myself, right?"

Heart skipped a beat, Yu Wenxi raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

He wanted her to drink alone, but he didn't expect this fat black man to be so proactive.

Hua Chun stopped smiling, and looked at her seriously: "Master Liuxiang, do you think it's worth losing your life for a man?"

Sun Liuxiang pursed her lips, thought for a while and said, "I want the prince to live."

"The way to keep the prince alive is to drink this glass of wine. Is there anything wrong with that concubine choosing to drink it?"

It was a very simple logic, and everyone present was stunned when they heard it, and they all scolded this fool in their hearts. She was so self-sacrificing, looked at Prince Xi next to him, but he clearly had a relieved expression on his face, and had no intention of stopping her at all.

"This king will definitely remember the great kindness of the princess." Yu Wenxi said.

Sun Liuxiang was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at him blankly.

Even if it's a show to persuade you to stay, it's okay? Anyway, she can drink it...

"Fool." Hua Chun muttered, waved his hand to remove the wine glass, and then said: "It seems that the relationship between the prince and the princess...is not mutual."

Sun Liuxiang turned to look at her stiffly.

A long time ago, the concubine De concubine had told her that getting married would lead to a good life because of love, but she didn't listen.

Thinking about it carefully, she did not have a good life. The person next to her seemed to be different from the person she first saw, but she refused to admit it.

With lowered eyes, Sun Liuxiang fell silent.

Yu Wenxi gave her a disgusted look, then looked at Hua Chun: "Do you want to drink dove poison, or what?"

"No need to drink." The emperor said: "Your fiefdom will belong to my name, and all the troops will be handed over to Huo Zichong to reorganize. You will retain your title of prince and be imprisoned in the White Horse Temple for life."
