Chapter 509 The ebb and flow of clouds and sunshine, joys and sorrows (Part 2)
Li Wutong has arrived?
Kui Long and the others are so good at choosing the right time?
Either sooner or later, do we have to send the person here now?
If Wei Changtian hadn't known that Kuilong's people had no position, otherwise he would have doubted whether they were deliberately causing trouble for him.
As for Li Wutong insisting on seeing him immediately...
After hesitating for a moment, Wei Changtian stood up and bowed his hands to everyone in the room.
"Everyone, I'll excuse you for a moment."
"..."
The ceremony was about to begin, but the groom suddenly had to leave.
Several people, including Liang Zhen, were a little surprised, but they didn't say anything or asked him what he was going to do.
They knew that Wei Changtian must have known it, so they just smiled and replied:
"Young Master, it's okay to go."
"good."
Taking a deep breath, he walked around the screen and followed Zhang San out of the back door into the main hall.
After Wei Changtian went out, he immediately asked: "How many people sent Li Wutong back? Did they say anything?"
"Back to the young master, there are seven of us in total."
Zhang San answered truthfully: "They left the person in the backyard and left without saying anything."
"Um......"
Wei Changtian nodded, feeling a little regretful.
He originally wanted to chat with this group of Kuilong people, but the latter actually put them down and left.
Of course, for a group of second-level masters, it is normal for the Freemasonry to be unable to retain them.
I just don’t know if Zhuang Zhiming is among these seven people...
Wei Changtian was thinking about things in his mind, and soon he walked into the backyard with Zhang San.
Compared to the lively front yard, not many people walked around in the back yard, but red lanterns were hung everywhere and tied with red silk, and it still looked festive.
"Sir, this is where it is."
Stopping outside the door of a side room, Zhang San whispered: "Princess Wuping is in the house now."
"Okay, I get it."
Li Wutong's appearance gradually emerged in his mind. Wei Changtian turned his head and warned, "Just stay outside the house and don't allow anyone to come in."
"Also, if I haven't been out for a long time, remember to remind me before the ceremony starts."
"I understand, young master." Zhang San responded seriously.
"Um."
Nodding, Wei Changtian paused for a moment, then reached out and pushed open the door.
...
...
Ordinary decoration, deserted atmosphere, woman with absent-minded eyes...
The moment he stepped into the room, Wei Changtian felt as if there were two worlds inside and outside the room.
It's not that he hasn't thought about Li Wutong's current appearance, but he never expected that the latter would be so haggard.
The dirty clothes looked like they had not been washed for several days, and her face, which was not inferior to Lu Jingyao's at first, was now thin and pale.
What's even more striking is that the silky black hair has turned into short, fragmentary hair.
Without the cover of his long hair, his shoulders, which were trembling slightly, looked even thinner.
"..."
For a moment, Wei Changtian was unable to speak. He just stared blankly at Li Wutong, who seemed to have changed into a different person.
And Li Wutong also looked at him blankly.
Their four eyes faced each other, and they looked at each other without saying anything.
It wasn't until Wei Changtian sighed "Princess" in a complicated mood that Li Wutong seemed to finally be freed and threw himself into his arms and cried loudly.
Outside the window, the cheerful sounds of theater and the misty laughter of the crowd were incompatible with the extremely painful cries.
Wei Changtian didn't speak, he just patted Li Wutong's back gently and sighed heavily in his heart.
Although he couldn't completely empathize with her, he could understand the latter's mood at this time.
The country was about to perish, and my father was extremely humiliated.
If you add in what happened to Lord Yu Ping before...
In just a few months, Li Wutong's life has indeed experienced too many and heavy changes.
To be honest, it would be difficult for anyone to bear such an experience.
What's more important is that Wei Changtian can't help her solve all this right now, so he will inevitably feel a little guilty in his heart.
"..."
I don’t know how long it took, but the crying in the room finally became quieter.
But this was not because Li Wutong had cried enough, but because she was trying her best to hold back the tears that kept flowing.
Because she has more important things to do.
"Mr. Gongzi, what's going on over there in Fengyuan..."
Grasping the hem of Wei Changtian's clothes, Li Wutong bit her lip and asked the question that mattered most to her while trembling.
Hearing this question, Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she actually didn't know the current situation in Dafeng.
It seems that Kuilong's people didn't say anything to her along the way.
Wei Changtian knew that if he told Li Wutong truthfully what happened, it would definitely be another heavy blow to the latter.
But it was impossible to hide this kind of thing, she would have to face it sooner or later.
so......
"Princess, the day after you left Fengyuan, your father opened the city gate and surrendered..."
Wei Changtian spoke silently while observing Li Wutong's condition.
Seeing that the latter did not have any extreme reaction, he must have expected this, so he sighed lightly and continued:
"Well, after that, Ning Yongnian ordered Wu Ding to send your father to Huailing Mansion and falsely accuse him of being the real culprit of the Yuanzhou City incident."
"And then......"
At this point, Wei Changtian found it difficult to tell the truth about Li Qi being hung at the top of Huailing City, so he paused and persuaded softly:
"Princess, let's talk about these things later."
"You have just arrived in Shuzhou, so you should take some time to cultivate yourself..."
Wei Changtian didn't finish what he said.
Because at this time, Li Wutong could not wait until later. He just kept trembling and asked:
"Again, what happened next..."
"..."
Looking at Li Wutong, after being silent for a while, Wei Changtian still felt that now was not the time to talk about this.
"Princess, listen to me and rest first."
"I will tell you everything truthfully from now on, and I will definitely do my best to help you."
"I, I don't want to rest..."
"I, I still want to... yes, yes! I still have something to do!"
Suddenly, Li Wutong raised his head and his tone became extremely urgent.
"I, I want to go!"
"I'm going to find Ning Yongnian!"
"Thirteen days, tomorrow is the last day!"
"If we don't leave again, it will be too late!"
"Yes! I, I must leave now..."
"..."
It's obvious that Li Wutong's words nowadays are somewhat inconsistent with his words.
But no matter how fluent she spoke, Wei Changtian would not understand what she was talking about.
Because of what happened outside Fengyuan City that night, Kuilong's people did not tell him in advance.
"Princess! What are you talking about?!"
Holding Li Wutong's trembling shoulders firmly, Wei Changtian frowned suddenly and his voice suddenly became serious.
"where are you going?!"
"Why are you looking for Ning Yongnian?!"
"Because, because Ning Yongnian said..."
As if frightened by Wei Changtian's appearance, Li Wutong's body trembled even more.
"I, I can trade myself for him to withdraw from Dafeng and withdraw his troops..."
"He, he promised..."
"..."
The intermittent voice was full of unspeakable emotions.
Although what Li Wutong said was still a bit confusing, Wei Changtian frowned and listened to her for a while, but he roughly understood the whole story.
Of course, like the old man in gray robe from Kuilong before, or like everyone with some scheming ideas, Wei Changtian knew very well that this was just a trap set by Ning Yongnian.
Even an extremely crude trap.
The idea of one person changing one country is pure nonsense.
When it comes to fishing with a straight hook, only people like Li Wutong who are deeply involved in it would be willing to take the bait.
"Princess, I understand how you feel at this time, but..."
He didn't blame Li Wutong for anything. Wei Changtian knew that she was concerned but confused, so his tone was still very gentle.
"But this matter is absolutely impossible to be true. Ning Yongnian is just lying to you."
"Believe me, even if you really hand yourself over, he will never withdraw his troops from Dafeng."
"Princess, do you believe me or Ning Yongnian?"
"If you believe me, then listen to me. We will definitely have a chance to recapture Dafeng in the future."
"..."
Hot tears fell down drop by drop, and the room suddenly fell into silence.
Li Wutong's eyes widened, he staggered back, and lowered his head little by little.
She did not answer Wei Changtian's question, but whispered repeatedly in an extremely weak voice, as if possessed.
