The wheels of the cart kept creaking and creaking, and it bumped slightly on the bluestone road with occasional pebbles. In front of the cart were six uniform crescent horses with white coats, their postures were like the moon, and their hooves were treading lightly on the snow. Qingqing recognized these six horses. The four horses among them were once the majestic mounts used by General Shen when he went out. Now that the general's palace fell, these rare crescent horses were naturally taken into the hands of the master.
Qing Qing still remembered that on the morning of the execution day, a group of generals were tied up and kneeled in a row beside the guillotine. Most of them were wives and children beside them, and even a six- or seven-year-old urchin who didn't know what happened, raised his head, and laughed and laughed. The executioner kept laughing.
The executioner said nothing, and everyone turned their heads in tacit agreement.
Only the fiery-tempered Ning Yingcheng refused to be convinced. He walked by and cursed along the street: "I will stay with the leader for the rest of my life, and I have no other intention! We can all learn from the emperor, the emperor, and the queen! That person named Ruo It is for the harm to the West Lake that the leader listens to the slander..." Before he could finish the second half of his sentence, he was pushed to the ground by a group of black-robed disciples, and his mouth was filled with gravel and rags. Ying Cheng said He couldn't speak, but he still screamed, his hair stood up in anger, his eyes were as big as bells, and his blood vessels were protruding, almost about to burst.
Apart from that, Xuan Ming was left alone, and his wife Qiu'er was no longer by his side.
Mr. Ruo stood on a high platform in the distance, and Qingqing himself could only reveal half of his figure from behind him. Even so, Xuan Ming still vaguely saw himself, stood up with force and squinted his eyes. He kept looking in the direction of Mr. Ruo.
Qingqing didn't speak, but folded her arms in front of her chest, pretending to be holding a baby in her arms and singing her to sleep.
Xuan Ming immediately understood and even smiled slightly. For a moment, Qingqing even thought that Xuan Ming could be reunited with Qiu'er, which was something she could only dream of. In the past three or four years, there was no news about Li Rongshan's whereabouts. When she thought of herself, Perhaps he and his master were far apart, or separated from each other by yin and yang. Qingqing felt that his days were like years, and he was suffering endlessly.
And her own eyes had long since dried up and turned into a pair of teary eyes. Sometimes when she sheds excessive tears, Qingqing would feel like the world was spinning in front of her eyes, making her unable to see clearly.
What surprised Ruo Dong was that before the last moment of execution, Qing Qing turned around and left without saying a word. There were disciples beside him who wanted to stop him, but Ruo Dong made a gesture to stop him.
Qingqing was afraid that if she really saw the last scene, she would lose the courage to endure the humiliation.
After that, Qingqing knelt outside Yaoguang Hall for a long time, waiting until the scorching sun was hidden behind the mountains. Qingqing thought he would stand up and rush into the hall, just like he did when he was sixteen years old Overturned the palace. But in fact, he seemed to be numbed by the sun, and remained motionless until Wen Li came from behind and stretched out a hand to him:
"Sister Lin."
"I haven't been separated from my sister for many days. As Mr. Ruo said, my sister has indeed changed a lot, which is impressive. I remember that my sister recklessly burned down the Kaiyang Palace of the first leader, but today she knows how to abandon the darkness and surrender to the light, surrendering and obeying. The truth is really rare.”
"In addition to burning Kaiyang Palace, I'm also stained with the blood of the head's two relatives."
"What does sister want to say?" Unexpectedly, Wen Li raised his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully, "The most rare thing for monarchs in ancient and modern times is to appoint people on their own merits. If the head first knew that my sister sincerely regretted her sins, it would be better for the future. Miyu Xihu has served me faithfully, I believe Jiuquanxia will also be pleased."
Hearing this, Qing Qing had to sigh in his heart. In terms of speaking without sincerity and being able to bend and stretch, he and Wen Li were simply 18,000 miles apart. Wen Li seemed not to have the guts to set the Yang Palace on fire, but today he
Sitting in front of him, he watched a descendant of Linghu bow his head to apologize.
It’s no wonder that at such a young age, he has firmly established himself as the head of the West Lake. He has also conquered the four musical instruments in one breath, and everyone in the world is convinced.
"Sister, you need to know that nowadays, the people in the world seem to be united, but in fact, there are many people who are ready to take action and want to attack the stone with an egg. The voice of resistance to the adverse trend is the loudest in the Northern Desert. In a few days, Li will travel with Mr. Ruo,
The purpose is to subjugate the old ministers of the Northern Desert, completely unify the Eight Sounds, revive Emperor Wen Kang's prosperity, and avoid future troubles for the world."
Qingqing listened quietly, eyes lowered silently, unable to say a word of flattery.
"On this trip, Li Ding will take Sister Lin with him. This is Mr. Ruo's personal permission. Of course, this must be seen clearly by those stubborn and conservative people in Beimo. Only sisters like my sister can see clearly.
The general trend is the right path to make achievements and become famous in history."
What is the general trend? Qingqing couldn't help but laugh. Thinking back to the beginning, there were many people who thought they had grasped the general trend. Nowadays, there are many people who are afraid of hell and few people in this world.
And the reason why Wen Li took him with him when traveling was clearly revealed - even if the people in the streets and alleys did not recognize him, wouldn't the head of Yiya Mo and his old ministers recognize this Linghu who blew up the Baiyin Qin?
Disciple? Could it be that Li Rong’s old friend, who was on good terms with Dongshan and was waiting in the dark, could not see a descendant of Linghu following behind the leader of West Lake?
This step was to kill his heart without using troops. Wen Li knew that the Dongshan sinner who was submissive in front of him would never sincerely switch to the sect. And this appearance was nothing more than to cut off Qing Qing's retreat.
Now, Qingqing and Li Zhiyan were standing on the left and right behind Head Wen, rising and falling with the bumps of the wheels.
This six-horse parallel carriage is much more gorgeous and bright than Xuan Ming's original carriage. Although these white horses hold their heads high as always, they must also know in their hearts that the people in the carriage behind them are a thousand times more noble than before.
Although Xuan Ming's car was eye-catching with its white horse, he did not dare to violate his ancestor's wishes of being clean and frugal, and he never put excessive luxury on the car.
After the horses returned to Master Wen, the cart behind them was also very different from before. The wheels on both sides were as tall as a person, and the wheels were polished thick and smooth. Even the patterns on the wheels were carefully carved by craftsmen.
Zhuo, it is simply a rare treasure in the world. The whole car is completely opened, and the master is sitting in the middle. There are two maids, four guards and six coachmen standing beside him in the car, allowing the people of West Lake to show the majesty of the master.
See clearly.
Even though Wen Li's face still looked a little childish, the way he raised his hands to welcome ordinary people to worship was almost carved from the same mold as the previous Wen Xian.
Sometimes Zhiyan would turn his head and look in the direction where Qingqing was standing. If he happened to catch Qingqing's gaze, he would even smile shyly. Looking at his gentle look, he seemed to have forgotten everything.
This is the feud between Linghu and his father and sister.
Qingqing tilted her head and couldn't help but wonder, is it a good thing or a bad thing that Ru Zhiyan can untie her heart knot so easily?
While I was in my trance, the carriage suddenly lurched. It seemed that one of the six horses had sprained its hoof. It suddenly raised its legs, causing the other horses to fail to pay attention and lost control and rushed out. A few of them rushed out.
The disciples of Tiankeju acted as guards and immediately surrounded the master in the center. The coachmen were so frightened that they whipped their horses repeatedly, which in turn made them neigh.
When Qingqing saw this, he subconsciously rushed forward to stop the horse, fearing that the whole car would be completely torn in two by this pull. Unexpectedly, he came to the side of the car in a few steps and was about to reach out to pull the reins.
When I saw another thick hand, I took a step forward, grabbed the rope on the back of the horse on the far side, and pulled hard. Shengsheng stopped the horse's forward momentum with his own strength.
Several other horses were connected to the same axle and received force almost simultaneously, forcing them to stop.
It turns out that there are such talented people in the West Lake? I saw this series of movements of pulling the horse and pulling the reins, and they were done in one go. In addition to the strength, it showed that they were brave and resourceful. Qingqing was a little surprised, and subconsciously leaned out of the car.
However, he happened to see the man outside lowering his head and dismounting from his horse. He then took a few steps forward, saluted solemnly and said:
"The general will welcome the master!"
It turned out to be another fierce general in the General's Mansion! Qingqing was a little surprised, and he was even more impressed. He had thought that the General's Mansion had experienced the previous disaster, and the twelve generals had lost their heads, and the rest of the veteran generals were also
After submitting the letter and returning to the field, the general's palace was empty and no one was left. Unexpectedly, there were people who were so brave that they did not avoid the leader and came to greet him.
How brave and resourceful can one be to carry forward such a fearless aura? Qingqing was filled with admiration, curiosity, and a sense of familiarity. For a moment, he forgot where he was and just held tight.
Staring at the man's bowed back, Xiang could see his face clearly.
Wen Li walked slowly behind him, and Li Zhiyan followed closely. He heard the footsteps of the young leader coming to the front of the car and slowly raising his hand: "General Nan, please stand up. The general is not afraid of danger and does not care about his own life. Mr. Ruo is serious
You didn’t see the wrong person.”
The general raised his head and smiled brightly. The heroic spirit between his brows and eyes instantly overlapped with the Nan Jiayou in Qingqing's memory.
Qingqing froze on the spot. The hand that was stretched out in the air to tighten the reins suddenly stopped. Just a few inches away from the rope, the hand suddenly stopped in the air. Although Qingqing couldn't see her.
face, but he subconsciously understood that his expression must be wide-eyed, and even his eyeballs were about to fall out of his eye sockets. When Nan Jiayou raised his head, Qingqing was beside the leader, and it was difficult to miss him.
Seeing a strange woman staring blankly at him, a hint of shyness appeared on Jiayou's face, and he quickly lowered his head in panic.
Wen Li looked calm, as if he wanted Qing Qing to listen on purpose, and he laughed a few times: "General Nan is so brave, and General Li De is so lucky. In this case, please ask the general to clear the way.
!”
"Yes!" Jiayou responded loudly, turned around gracefully, and mounted his horse.
Qingqing still couldn't recover. Even the coachman pulled the reins away, but his hand was still motionless. Zhiyan was kind-hearted, and was afraid that Lin Shaoxia's rude appearance would attract everyone's attention, so he hurriedly pulled Qingqing's hand.
, dragging her to her original position.
Inadvertently, Wen Li glanced at Qing Qing's expression, and a mysterious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Nan Jiayou was rescued by his master from Master Yang's tomb prison. In order to save the life of an enemy, the dignified leader Linghu almost took his own life. Qingqing was shocked that he still survived in the world and served the West Lake——
Rather, I couldn't believe that the eldest son of Nansu Qionglin showed such a loyal look in front of the young head of West Lake.
If it were said that Jiayou had also experienced a catastrophe like that of Dongshan, Qingqing would have a sense of sympathy for him. But now seeing his face full of pride and glory opening the way for the head of the West Lake, Qingqing only felt that his stomach was churning.
nausea.
"Do you know this General Nan, Sister Lin?" Wen Li looked calmly and looked forward. "The General's Mansion has always been Xihu's right-hand man. The rebellion of several generals cannot cut off the General's Mansion's retreat. This General Nan
Although he went crazy and couldn't remember many things before, his ability to be brave and good at fighting has not been lost at all."
"What do you think, sister, of making this man the head of the general's palace and restoring the prestige of West Lake?"
