I am fish

Chapter 243 Nine Years of Shunde

Li Feng walked out of Zichen Palace in high spirits, and when he saw A Qiong, he shouted happily, and stepped forward to help her to watch carefully:

"Grandma, do you know how much I miss you? Are you okay?"

"It's okay. I haven't seen you for a few years. Your Majesty has grown so tall."

Aqiong left the people supporting him on both sides, and Li Feng and Li Feng held each other's arms, and walked along the gravel path to the small garden in front of Zichen Palace.

In the small garden, there is a tall banyan tree that stands alone in a forest, which is called "Dragon Beard Forest".It has been planted here for a hundred years since Emperor Wu's time.Even after the thieves broke into the Forbidden Garden, they still loved this ancient tree very much, for fear that bad things would happen if the ancient tree was cut down, so the Longxu Forest has been preserved until now.

Li Feng took A Qiong to walk in the Longxu forest, asked her about her physical condition, and asked her if she was doing well in Sudu.He also recalled the past of the two of them on the front line of Yan Xing's life and death.Knowing that Aqiong insisted on taking medicine in a secluded foreign country, a lot of the poison on his body had been scraped off, and now he was awake for longer than the time of being muddled, Li Feng felt relieved.

Li Feng stared at A Qiong for a while, then suddenly turned around to wipe his eyes.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Aqiong asked him.

"It's nothing... It's just that I think of my biological parents when I see grandma. I haven't seen them since I left Yanxing and became the throne."

He used to talk about everything to A Qiong.

He knew that Aqiong also treated him sincerely, and that the two of them were born and died together as a fateful friendship, and Li Feng even recognized Aqiong as his god-grandmother before she went to Sudu.With his parents not around, Ah Qiong mistook him for his own child and tried his best to protect him. Li Feng always kept this kindness in his heart.

During these years in Runing, as he grows up, the more he understands the world and the people around him, the more carefully he pretends to be on guard day and night, the more exhausted he becomes.There is no one who can speak intimately. He knows that anyone around him may be Wei Tingxu's spy, and everything he says and does will reach Wei Tingxu's ears in the blink of an eye.Even Liu Shao, he just used it.

He knows all about how Liu Shao exploited the people in the name of the Son of Heaven and how he built large-scale construction projects.So far, I haven't said anything wrong with Liu Shao, because Liu Shao is his only pillar based on the center.No matter how bad or greedy this person is, he must keep this person.When the Wei and Changsun families are eradicated, it will not be too late to remove the eunuchs.

Over the years, he has been playing the role of a fatuous king, immersed in wine pools and groves all day long, and from time to time he gets sick and drunk, just to make the gang of thieves in the Senate think that he is greedy for pleasure and senseless, and neglects to guard against him , in order to have a chance to fight back.After so long, Li Feng has always done a good job, and this time the plan to suppress the female officials went very smoothly. Just after a little bit of elation, the important chess pieces were killed again.

Yao Maolin was in the dungeon, and Wei and Changsun were so bold that they dared to kill people in the dungeon. It really made Li Feng feel bad and uncomfortable.

At this juncture, A Qiong appeared, of course he knew what it meant.

Maybe he will lose even the person who can say the last truth.

Aqiong was consoling others that they would die, but what Li Feng was thinking about was when he was sitting on the Qingyuan carriage and looked at the snow-covered sky.

At that time, he had not yet returned to Runing, and he was full of expectations for the throne of emperor.He will work hard to restore vitality to the desolate Central Plains and allow displaced people to return to their homes.

At that time, he was full of ambitions, but the reality was completely different from what he thought.

Although he is called "Son of Heaven", he has no right to be a Son of Heaven.

He can be regarded as fully understanding how many kings' sorrow and loneliness are filled with the words "lonely family and widowed person".

"Grandma." Li Feng interrupted Aqiong, "tell me about what Sudu is like. How is it different from Runing? What do the people there say and what kind of clothes do they wear. I want to know .”

When Lin Mu returned to the General's Mansion, Zhen Wenjun had been waiting for a long time.

Before entering the mansion, she had already taken off her night clothes, changed into her usual clothes, and entered through the back door.

Zhen Wenjun did not move to the General's Mansion, it was simply built and cleaned.Occasionally, he would come when discussing important military matters with Lin Mu Huangbo and others and he would not disturb the tranquility of Zhuojun Mansion, and there would be another situation.

After Lin Mu entered the mansion, he drank the wine in the middle of Zhen Wenjun's case, and Zhen Wenjun knew that Yao Maolin was dead.

"Thank you, General Lin." Zhen Wenjun looked at the wine glass thoughtfully.

Lin Mu has always been neat and quiet, but now she finished drinking but did not leave, standing where she seemed to have something to say.

Zhen Wenjun said: "General Lin, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"When I saw Zhuo Zuolang in the sky prison, she thought I was a general, and she thought it was the general who came to save her."

Zhen Wenjun gave a "hmm" and poured wine for himself: "Is there anything else?"

"Gone."

"Then General Lin, go back and rest earlier."

Lin Mulin walked forward and said, "Since Beijiang came back, the general seems to have something on his mind. Being in Runing doesn't seem to make the general happier than killing the enemy in Beijiang."

Zhen Wenjun asked back: "Is that so?" It was an understatement, but her tone could not be heard.

Lin Mu cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Maybe it's the general's own feeling."

Lin Mu left, and Zhen Wenjun was the only one left in the entire General's Mansion in the howling autumn wind.

The wine was really delicious tonight, Zhen Wenjun couldn't stop drinking one after another.

The autumn wind was rustling, and Ah Zhu had just lit the gauze lantern in the front yard with a long pole, but a gust of wind blew the lantern, and it was extinguished again.

A Zhu braced her stiff waist, a little angry.The servants next to her immediately came forward to help.

"No need, I'll do it myself. All of you are clumsy, what if you burn the lamp and frighten the girl?"

Seeing that Aunt Azhu seemed to be a little bit evil, the servants did not dare to provoke her anymore, let alone leave, for fear that it would be bad if Auntie fell down, so they all gathered around and looked at Azhu holding the The long pole is enough to reach the gauze lantern, and it’s not a matter of stepping forward or not stepping forward.

Ah Zhu was getting old, and she knew that her body was getting worse day by day, but she couldn't stop.Her mother is the steward of the Wei family and Wei Lun's nanny.After working for the Wei family all her life, her body was very strong, and then she accidentally fell, but it was nothing serious. The Wei family took care of her and gave her a piece of land to enjoy her life.There was no work to do, and my mother died soon after.To this day, Ah Zhu still remembers what his mother said to her before she died:

"People like us work hard all our lives. If we don't work, it's like being sucked out of our souls. Our hands are shaking and our legs are numb. We won't live long."

Grandma's words were like a curse, always lingering in Azhu's heart.

The gauze lamp is right in front of her eyes, this is something she can easily do in normal times, why can't she do it now?

The more Azhu competed with himself, the more he couldn't light the lamp. He held his breath in his heart and was extremely anxious.

Suddenly someone stretched out a hand from behind her and firmly held the shaking pole.With the help of that person, the kindling on the long pole quickly touched the wick of the gauze lantern, and with a "hiss", the stone steps in the front yard were illuminated by the light.

"Captain Changsun is here."

The moment the gauze lantern was lit, Azhu's restless heart felt better.

A Liao smiled gently at A Zhu: "Aunt A Zhu, let me get used to it. Where is Ting Xu? Are you asleep?"

"The girl is in the main courtyard. When I came out just now, I saw that the lights in the room were still on, so she must have been asleep." A Zhu said, "General Zhen hasn't come back yet, so she won't sleep."

Ah Liao walked towards the main courtyard, only then did Ah Zhu realize that there was someone behind her, not that Ah Qin.

Wei Tingxu heard footsteps outside the house, and thought it was Zhen Wenjun who came back, but when he stood up, he heard something wrong, it wasn't Zhen Wenjun.

"What's the matter, don't you want to see me?" A Liao couldn't help teasing after witnessing the whole process of Wei Tingxu's expression changes when he entered the room.

"I just didn't expect you to come so late." Wei Tingxu also noticed Ah Qin behind her, smiled politely at Ah Qin, sat back on the chair, and hugged the small incense burner for warming his hands again.

"You haven't slept so late, you're still waiting for sister Wenjun." A Liao poured water as if returning home, and asked Ah Qin to sit across from her.

As soon as Ah Qin sat down, Wei Tingxu said: "Ah Qin has been here several times before, and they were all waiting outside the house. This is the first time to come in."

Ah Qin nodded with a smile.

"I don't know if you guys have had dinner, but there is some pepper wine that Ah Liao likes to drink in the kitchen. I have trouble walking, so I will trouble Mrs. Ah Qin to get it."

Ah Liao hurriedly said "I'll go, I'll go", but was nailed back by Wei Tingxu's caring gaze.Ah Qin tactfully got up and asked the chef how to get there, Wei Tingxu asked the farthest chef, and finished talking in a roundabout manner, Ah Qin didn't ask a second time, and got up and went directly.

"I asked Wenjun to kill Yao Maolin."

As soon as Ah Qinfu left, Wei Tingxu put on a smile and threw out such a sentence.

Before Ah Liao took a sip of tea, she was so startled that she almost splashed him all over.

"What? Didn't Shuzuo Lang always have a deep affection for Sister Wenjun?" Although Ah Liao focused on Ah Qin and her Qingyuan, and seemed to have no other distractions in love, she still pretended to be concerned about the big and small things that happened in court. Pretentiously, "You can directly kill Zhuo Zuolang, why do you want sister Wenjun to do such a thing? The Yao family is your sworn enemy, but not sister Wenjun's. You do this..."

"Do you know why I didn't kill Wenjun back then?"

Ah Liao couldn't keep up with the speed of Wei Tingxu's mind for a moment: "Back then? Which one was there?"

"When I found out that I actually liked the chess pieces I made by myself."

Ah Liao: "Isn't it because I like it?"

"It's not just like. Compared with a 'person' I like, what I don't like is that I have weaknesses. Once I really love someone, this person will become my fatal weakness. Apart from the weakness itself, my emotions It will also be because of this person's ups and downs, and there is room for others to use her personality—the reason why I chose to assist Li Yanyi and use Li Yanyi as the entrance to eradicate the evil room is because I have long discovered that her character is enough to make her The point of death. Xiaohua has warned me more than once, don’t stop because of Wenjun, don’t fall short for her. Not only the thousands of Wei’s lives are behind me, but also the lives of your Changsun’s family. Because of her reminder, I was able to adjust the direction in time amidst the confusion, and only then did I have the current situation.”

A Liao looked at her: "It turns out that you also have times of confusion."

Wei Tingxu raised his eyebrows: "Of course, I'm human too."

"So what now? There is no Xiaohua who 'remonstrated' with death. Do you have any doubts? Are you jealous of that writer? Let's put it this way, sister Wenjun is different from us. She lived in Qi County since she was a child. The daughter of the gardener, she has experienced many hardships, so she can understand the suffering of others better. She is a gentle person. It cannot be denied that you will be attracted to her like this, and so will others. In addition, she is a national hero standing behind her body. With a big name like General Zhen Guo, it's normal for little ladies to like her. If you let her kill everyone who likes her, how can she be busy."

"A Liao." Wei Tingxu said, "I understand what you said, but now I just feel that it is only natural for her to be killed."

A Liao's expression paused.

"Anyone who covets her can't live in this world." When Wei Tingxu said this, his eyes didn't blink, and the candlelight reflected in her eyes, like two sharp needle points.Ah Liao knew she was serious.

"Similarly, anyone who wants to provoke the relationship between me and her will also die."

"Tingxu." Ah Liao held her hand, "Have you already investigated something? You are tired of hearing those gossips that sow discord, why would you mind such things? People are enough for you to be afraid of?"

"Steps."

Ah Liao frowned: "Steps? Is that the counselor who followed Wen Jun's sister for many years?"

"It's him. The man who was damned many years ago escaped from me."

"He... you, how did you know that he was provoking?"

Wei Tingxu didn't speak, but looked at the motionless candle.

"Could it be that you planted spies next to Sister Wenjun?" There was no one in the room, but Ah Liao's voice continued to fall again and again, and the last sentence was almost breathless.

"Yes." Wei Tingxu admitted directly.

"Can't you trust each other until now?"

"Let me ask you, where are you and Ah Qin?"

When Ah Qin was mentioned, Ah Liao's face also changed another color.

"Of course you love Ah Qin, and you believe that she is not the one who harmed Ah Xu, but you are jealous of her. It would not be surprising if one day her actions did not go according to your expectations, because she is beyond your control. Me too So. I let people secretly lurk beside Wenjun, not because I didn’t believe her, but because I doubted myself. When I found out that Wenjun became my weakness, I had an urge to get rid of her very much. But In the end, I didn't do it because I thought that if I just killed her and erased her weaknesses like this, it would be too dull and boring. I want to keep her and slowly overcome and conquer."

A Liao: "But now you find that she has not been conquered by you, and you have not overcome her, and this weakness has become stronger. So you are afraid. What you dislike the most is losing control. Why do you like her so much? She's the only one you can't really hold onto."
