Chapter Eight Yisheng's Old Dream
The fragrant gauze lingers and the wind sounds soft, and butterflies come to sleep.
She was alone, staring at the wilderness and desert in a daze.
Dark night, strong wind, and soaring flames!
She saw that in her past life, she had been waiting for Xue Pinggui but she had a miscarriage on a rainy night when she was poor and sick, and she would never have a child again...
She saw her relatives being executed one by one at Caishikou using various harsh methods - the cruelty of the methods made the onlookers sick...
If one's relatives indeed behave inappropriately, what about the other innocent people in the house? From the octogenarians to the newborn children, they can all be cooked and beheaded...
She saw the assassins attacking, and Xue Pinggui quickly, embarrassingly, and crawling out of the palace, leaving herself alone to be humiliated and trampled. It was really disgusting...
She saw that when she was deposed, her loyal personal servants were killed one by one, and her eyes were blurred by blood and tears...
She saw Dai Zhan being knocked to the ground with a palm because he tried to dissuade him from his ridiculous behavior...
She saw the setting sun in Xiliang Villa like blood...
She saw Dai Zhan with tears in his eyes...
Suddenly, time flies by, and a crescent moon shines softly, covering the beauty in the Baihua Pavilion with a light veil.
"Is this... the Gu Yisheng from before?"
Wang Baochuan's soul could vaguely distinguish the figure in front of him.
Gu Yisheng sat quietly in the pavilion. Although she looked only eleven or twelve years old, she was well-behaved and mature, unlike a normal girl of the same age.
The power fence tightly covered the girl's stunning appearance.
Not far away, a handsome man strolled up, it was Fu Zhiyan.
The people around him didn't look like the Gu family, they were all dressed in a noble manner, so they didn't have any respect for Fu Zhiyan - even a certain person who wanted to bet on provoking Gu Yisheng's power.
Compete with Fu Zhiyan.
Fu Zhiyan felt that a good girl should not be treated as a bet.
So this meddlesome man went even further and tried to get the jade pendant given to Fu Zhiyan by the Saint and Her Royal Highness the Queen through a martial arts fight - but of course Fu Zhiyan won.
At that time, Gu Yisheng was looking at the crowd from afar, thinking that this man was very handsome, but unexpectedly——
Fu Zhiyan said loudly to the provocateur: "If you are dissatisfied with me, just say so. But to be disrespectful to this lady is really insulting to her dignity. If this incident today is spread, I am afraid that it will be a disgrace to me."
The reputation of our scholar-bureaucrats is tarnished... Your father has been widely criticized for corruption and bribery, and now he behaves like this. I wonder what the saint will think if he finds out..."
The provocateur was panicked for a moment and couldn't care less, but he still kept his dignity and shouted: "Mind your own business!"
Fu Zhiyan continued: "If you are really not afraid, why are you trembling like this?"
The provocateur was embarrassed and didn't know what to do for the moment.
"Why don't you hurry up and bear this lady's thorns to plead guilty?" Fu Zhiyan urged with righteousness.
The man still said harshly: "No, a weak woman is not something that a man like me should apologize for. Not to mention that this woman has nothing to do with me. Even if she is my wretched wife, she has nothing to do with me."
What does it matter? It’s just a joke, what’s the point?”
Gu Yisheng stood up and said, "This young master doesn't have to be so serious."
But Fu Zhiyan said: "If you don't teach him a lesson today, he will probably talk to you like this every day and every month. If you dare to speak dirty words today, you will dare to bully him tomorrow, and you will dare to raise a knife the day after.
On the other hand, if you give him one point, he will gain ten points. If everything is like this, you will have no leverage. Repeatedly forbearing will only lead to endless advancement."
The man finally gave in.
The picture flows, the snow under the moon is like layers of goose feathers, and the plum blossoms on the snow are like flowing fire in the twelfth month.
The sparse shadows are slanting, and the breeze is blowing.
The shadows of the two people under the moonlight are gentle and soft, as if they were drawn with a long stroke of ink.
"The disciple has met the master."
On a quiet snowy night, the two became master and apprentice. The poisonous-tongued young man was high-spirited but smart and mature, and only made the most relaxed appearance towards her.
He taught her poetry, poetry, literature and diction, ancient and modern affairs, music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He also taught her mental strategies and strategies that the world thinks daughters should not learn, martial arts such as riding and archery, and even the Nine Chapters of Pythagorean Chapter and the way of doing business.
…
In his eyes, there is nothing she cannot learn...
In his eyes, she was the only one - the only one who could exchange sincerity for sincerity.
The smoke and clouds are rising in Luling, just like spring.
The lieutenant drank a few cups of wine and then whipped the innocent civilians. At that time, Fu Zhiyan was still called Fu Mozhi, and he had not yet been noticed by the saints and the Queen for his outstanding talents and learning.
"Stop! Xiaomeng Ling is here. Seeing this order is like seeing a king. If you dare to kill innocent people indiscriminately in front of the king, you should be killed according to the law!"
Fu Zhiyan looked up and saw a figure that looked like the bright moon in the clouds peeking out from the sedan. The moon-white clothes made him look like a fairy. Even though he was only about ten years old and had a power fence covering his face, he still showed his pride.
Grace.
Zuiwei crawled away like an ant.
The Gu family's car also left.
But there are still a lot of criticisms against the third wife of the Gu family.
"The one who killed her two sisters!"
"Cold and ruthless, I don't know how to get along with others!"
"The annoying spirit that destroys the harmonious atmosphere!"
"Do you think you are so powerful that you can stand up to the sky?"
The Sanniang of the Gu family had to endure this even though she had done nothing.
What did she do?
She didn't do anything.
What did the Gu family do?
The Gu family did nothing.
The forest is as beautiful as the trees, but the wind will destroy them.
If the water is clear, there will be no fish.
I can't blame her for not wanting to trust others, because no one in this world can be trusted.
During those years when Fu Zhiyan was his master, he learned everything, and his love gradually grew.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yisheng didn't seem to feel it at all.
Even though he has never seen her true face in these years, he firmly believes that he must love the right person.
But it's not that she doesn't love her, it's because the world forces her that she doesn't dare to love her.
Love is too deep, but the world is too shallow and thin - people only know how to envy the capable, but forget that if they want to climb up, they need these people to take the lead...
This is true for the Gu family.
This is even more true for Fu Zhiyan.
In this life, the past Gu Yisheng clearly understood that her marriage, her identity, and her life were originally meant to be used to make a game. She was originally a chess piece in the hands of others, and she could abandon it whenever she wanted.
Maybe at some point, when she is no longer of use, she will be killed.
In this case, why bother provoking one more person and making each other more sad?
When a person sees the world too clearly, he appears extremely rational and calm, as if he has no emotions.
She is willing to die.
The former Gu Yisheng was willing.
There is no reason, just because all this must happen - and she can't change it.
