But everyone knows how far-fetched this reason is.
Huang Yueying stood there, silent for a long time, raised her head and said to Liu Zhang: "Husband, do what you said in the Silver Moon Cave in the Southern Wilderness still count?"
Liu Zhang's tired eyes were a little confused, but he still remembered what he said to Huang Yueying when she was poisoned in Silver Moon Cave.
"Yueying, I love you. In addition to my great career, being able to marry you is my biggest wish in this life, Liu Zhang."
Thinking back to how I felt when I said these words, Huang Yueying's life was on the line at that time, but now it's changed, it's me who is lying on the hospital bed, but why is my mood still the same?
Liu Zhang nodded without any scruples.
"I don't want my lord to nod. I want my lord to say it again. From now on... Yueying will assist the young master with all her heart and complete the unfinished business of my lord. My lord, Yueying just wants to hear you say it again."
Liu Zhang wanted to hold up his body, but failed. Huang Yueying came over to support Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang looked at Huang Yueying who was close at hand and said softly and solemnly: "Yueying, I love you. In addition to my great career, I can marry you.
I, Liu Zhang, am the biggest in my life..."
"Lord." Before Liu Zhang could finish speaking, Huang Yueying suddenly hugged Liu Zhang tightly and cried for the first time in front of others: "Yueying regretted that she didn't understand her feelings at the time and was uncertain. Now Yueying knows,
When she was poisoned in Sanjiang City, she was the first to find her lord. She didn't mind making a fool of herself in front of her lord. In fact, Yueying already liked her lord.
It's a pity that Yue Yingkong is resourceful, but emotionally an idiot. She has always been afraid that you will worry that Yue Ying will not be able to fully assist the young master, and is afraid that the master will leave without peace of mind. Only in the year when she was sick did she forget her original year. She has always been simple.
The year she fell in love with her lord was Yueying’s true self.
Lord, Yueying loves you, I’m sorry, it’s too late to say this.”
Huang Yueying hugged Liu Zhang tightly and cried silently. Xiao Furong and Qu Lingchen were standing at the door outside. They could vaguely hear Huang Yueying's words inside, but they didn't realize that their tears were flowing down.
Liu Zhang listened to Huang Yueying's confession. He smiled a little and said quietly: "That's enough, I have no regrets."
The only regrets have been made up for, most of the great work has been completed, and he has heard the confession of the person he likes with his own ears. Is there anything Liu Zhang is not satisfied with?
Holding Huang Yueying's slender waist with both hands, she kissed Huang Yueying on the cheek. Huang Yueying suddenly blocked Liu Zhang. With her face still stained with tears, she looked at Liu Zhang firmly and said: "Husband, Yueying wants to put on a wedding dress for you. The most beautiful thing is to be a husband once."
The bride."
Huang Yueying left Liu Zhang's arms. She wiped away her tears and was about to go out. Suddenly a soldier ran to the door. Wang Xu, the captain of the personal soldiers, quickly walked up: "We will tell you everything tomorrow, get out."
"No. King Latiya of Yarkand committed suicide in prison by taking poison. If we tell him tomorrow, he will be dead."
Liu Zhang was never guilty of the soldiers who reported the news. Everyone knew this, but the soldiers did not ignore the severity. The soldier naturally knew what time it was, but if a person took poison, he would die if he reported late, even if
No one in the Sichuan Army likes Latia, a witch, but the soldiers don't dare to conceal her information because of personal preferences. Who knows what effect Latia will have on the Sichuan Army.
Wang Xu took a look inside and said to the soldier: "Hypocritical, that witch must have poisoned herself to avoid being beheaded. Just call the military doctor to cure her."
The soldier wondered: "We reported it to General Zhao Yun before. General Zhao Yun didn't want to disturb the Lord, so he sent military doctors to look at it. There is no way to solve it. He probably won't live for a few hours."
"What on earth is this woman going to do?" Liu Zhang whispered after hearing the words of the soldiers outside.
Huang Yueying, who was about to go out, turned back to Liu Zhang and said, "Husband, do you want to go take a look?"
"I don't want to see it," Liu Zhang replied.
Huang Yueying smiled: "I think it's better for my husband to take a look. Don't forget that Zhaoxue's life is still in her hands. If she dies, no one can save Zhaoxue and the five thousand cavalry."
Liu Zhang frowned, no matter what, Xu Zhaoxue discovered in advance that the Sichuan army was poisoned, which saved the lives of 20,000 soldiers, as well as Xiao Furong, Qu Lingchen, Huang Yueying and others. She was still Huang Yueying's sister, how could she watch her die.
Liu Zhang really doesn't want to think about other things now, but it seems that he has never had a peaceful day since he came to this world, and he still has a lot of troubles until now.
At this time, Huang Yueying seemed to pause for a moment, and then said: "Also, husband, I think this woman Latiya has no ill intentions towards her husband."
"No malice?" Liu Zhang smiled and felt that this was completely impossible. Without malice, he would raise troops to attack Loulan and force the Han Dynasty to send troops? Without malice, he would poison the water?
But Liu Zhang suddenly thought that it was precisely these two things that Liu Zhang felt were wrong. There was no reason for Shache to attack Loulan, and it was strange for Latiya to poison the poison and leave the antidote first.
There are still seven days before Latiya's beheading. Can she commit suicide so early? What if she asks her for Kushan or the Five Thousand Cavalry in the next few days? Why don't she wait?
Liu Zhang was about to ask Huang Yueying's opinion again, but Huang Yueying had already gone out. Liu Zhang knew that Huang Yueying was asking him to make a decision. Liu Zhang felt that Huang Yueying felt that this was his private matter, not a public matter, so he should make his own decision.
When did Latiya's affairs become his own private matter?
"Bring Latiya here." Liu Zhang said to Wang Xu.
There was a look of struggle on Wang Xu's face. At this time, he really wanted to disobey his order. At this time, the master still had to deal with these things. Wang Xu felt irritated, but he still said "yes" loudly.
After a while, Latia was carried in, her pretty little face had a poisonous blue color, but Latia actually smiled when she saw Liu Zhang who was also lying on the hospital bed.
"How is she?" Liu Zhang asked the military doctor.
"I guess tomorrow morning," a military doctor replied.
"Haha, someone is actually accompanying me."
Liu Zhang burst out laughing. Liu Zhang, who had no regrets anymore, suddenly felt much better. However, when Latiya heard Liu Zhang's words, she looked at Liu Zhang in surprise.
At Latiya's request, the military doctor saw Liu Zhang's acquiescence and helped Latiya to sit down on a chair.
"Don't think that I don't know that you are pretending." Liu Zhang said directly without looking at Latiya: "You had already used this trick when you were in Xiqiang. You pretended to be bitten by the nasty centipede, but in fact you were not poisoned at all.
.Isn’t it just that you want to leave? You are so stupid to repeat the same old tricks.”
"I am stupid, and you may not be smart either. Don't think that I don't know. You were deceived on purpose and let me go on purpose. Why did you let me go? Do you regret it now?" Latiya's tone was not sad at all.
On the contrary, it is meant to be a joke.
"What do you regret? If it hadn't been for you, today's situation in the Western Region wouldn't have happened. I would be really grateful to you." If it were a few hours ago, Liu Zhang would have been uncomfortable, but now Liu Zhang is in a good mood, so he naturally thinks about good things.
"You...you are very irritating." Latiya was excited for a moment. But she felt weak and quickly regained her composure. She only said the last sentence lightly.
"I called you here not because I care about your life, nor because I don't want to see you perform. I ask you, will you give the five thousand cavalry and other Yarkands civil and military freedoms before you die?"
"Why?"
"To put it bluntly. Your Imperial Preceptor Xu Zhao, formerly known as Xu Zhaoxue, is a friend of mine and has been kind to me. I hope you can let her go free. If you have to say why, I have nothing to threaten you now.
, I beg you."
Liu Zhang said quietly. He hoped that Latia could return Xu Zhaoxue's freedom, but he also knew that Latia was a very difficult woman to be with. Now he had nothing to threaten her, and nothing to tempt her.
All I can do is beg her.
Liu Zhang had no psychological barriers to pleading with Latia. If Latia could free Xu Zhaoxue, it would be worth it. Of course, if Latia didn't agree, Liu Zhang would have nothing to do with it.
I don't want Xu Zhaoxue to die, but God's will is so, why force it? At least I tried my best.
"Begging me?" When Latiya heard Liu Zhang's last two words, her face changed obviously, but she suddenly laughed again, and she smiled helplessly. She laughed for a long time, and she was not surprised that Xu Zhaoxue was an acquaintance of Liu Zhang.
You said quietly: "Liu Zhang, I, Latia, have been raising troops for more than a year just for these two words, but why when I heard them, I didn't feel anything at all."
"What did you say?" Liu Zhang turned around and looked at Latiya inexplicably.
Latias pressed her chest tightly with her hands, the poison spreading in her body, but she suppressed it with a frown: "Liu Zhang, when I first came to your military camp, I was your prisoner, and you held my life hostage.
Just because I am the princess of a small country in the Western Region, you have to detain me no matter what, and during this period, whatever you do to me seems to be natural. Do you know that feeling?
You don’t know, because you are His Highness the King of Shu from a big country, commanding thousands of troops. For the benefit of the Sichuan army and the benefit of the Han Dynasty, it is natural for you to detain a princess from a small country. That is a kind of arrogance. Don’t you think about it?
How aggrieved was the princess who was forced to be detained?
You kissed me on the tower of Yangpingguan. If you were in Yarkand, you would have been stoned to death. But if you were in Dahan, you would be fine. You can pretend that it never happened.
I didn't ask you to take responsibility, so why could you just avoid it as a matter of course? Is it so difficult to apologize to me?
I know you won't even think of apologizing, because you don't treat me as an equal at all, just because I am the princess of a small country. This is the arrogance of your Han Dynasty people. I thought at that time, why do you look down on us?
Even so, in the Diren Valley, I still have to rely on tragic performances to win your sympathy, hoping that you will relax your vigilance and let me go, but you are still hard-hearted.
Later, when you were in Xiqiang, you deliberately fell into a trap and let me go. Do you think I should be grateful? You were giving, but why didn't I give to you?
I later figured it out, strength, doesn’t a big man just rely on his own strength to look down on others? Doesn’t he feel that he is the emperor of heaven and looks down on foreign countries?
If your fists are bigger than yours, are you still like dogs? When the Xiongnu were powerful, before the Han Dynasty, what did you dare to do to the Xiongnu?
So I raised an army. I wanted to make Yarkand rise and let you, Liu Zhang, know the strength of my Yarkand. When I said that Yarkand raised an army, it was for the purpose of having an equal dialogue with the Han Dynasty. That was not something I said casually, because Liu Zhang, I
I hate your arrogance.
Didn’t you ask me this afternoon why we attacked Loulan? Let me tell you, the Sichuan army is confronting Cao Cao and Sun Quan in the Central Plains. The main force must be in the east. As long as Yarkand captures Loulan and is directly adjacent to Liu Zhang’s territory, it can threaten you at any time.
rear.
At that time, Quanrong threatened the Zhou Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty repeatedly made good friends and paid tribute. At that time, the Eastern Hu Dynasty threatened the Yan Kingdom, and the Yan Kingdom surrendered and sued for peace. At that time, the Xiongnu threatened the Zhao Kingdom. Before Li Mu, the Zhao Kingdom paid tribute year after year. Whenever there was a war, he first appeased the Xiongnu.
Please the Huns.
In those days, the Qiang Canal could threaten the Qin Dynasty, and the Xiongnu could threaten the Han Dynasty. All countries in the Central Plains had no need to give gifts and women to curry favor with them.
When the Shache army reaches the Yumen Pass, that is when you beg me. Why should I use Loulan as a buffer? When you come to beg me, I will calculate all the previous accounts for you one by one.
It's a pity that if your 10,000 troops hadn't suddenly appeared behind us and Wusun Mitian had intervened, I, Latiya, might not have been able to win decisively in Loulan. Everything is God's will."
Latia smiled lonely as she spoke. Liu Zhang looked at Latia and couldn't understand this woman at all. Is this the legendary pervert? She hasn't reached menopause yet, right?
To beg her for your own sake, ignoring the interests of a country?
You must know that if Yarkand captured Loulan, Liu Zhang had already analyzed it before he went on the expedition, and it would be a serious problem for the Sichuan army. As long as the Sichuan army attacked Cao Sun, they would have to leave an eye in the back of their head, and life would be worse than death.
I really have to send someone to beg her.
But is it really beneficial for Yarkand to be directly bordered by the Sichuan Army? Latiya is familiar with Chinese history, but when listing the ethnic minorities, they basically disappeared or died in the competition with China, not to mention that Yarkand has not completely unified the Western Regions.
, you shouldn’t follow suit so quickly, right?
It can only be said that Latia was eager to beg her on her own, so she left Wusun and the Northern Mountains of Tianshan alone and went directly to fight Loulan.
"Don't guess what a woman is thinking," Latiya's metamorphosis fully explains this point.
"I have tried hard for so long, but I still can't get you to beg me once. I didn't expect that I accidentally caught Xu Zhao. Oh, no, it was Xu Zhaoxue. I actually asked you to beg me. It's really ridiculous." Latia
Smiled lightly.
"You could have asked me to beg you. To be honest, Xu Zhaoxue told me the antidote, but no one could have expected this. If you had asked me to get Sanxue Cordyceps in advance, and then wait for the Sichuan Army
It’s poisonous and we don’t have an antidote, so I definitely have to beg you, but why don’t you care if I went to get Cordyceps sinensis? Do you want to die together?”
This was the second question Liu Zhang was puzzled by.
"If you care about me, you will go get the Cordyceps antidote. If you don't care about me, you won't take anything I say to heart. Then your soldiers deserve to be killed by you." (To be continued)
