Dao, the current self is far from qualified.
The Liu Mansion allowed him to see more of the world and understand more things.He understands more and more that joining the army is not an easy task with his current ability.
He still needs time and needs to grow.
However, the situation in Jiankang was once again turned upside down.
After Chen Baxian joined forces with Wang Sengbian, they recovered Jiankang in September 552.
Hou Jing was killed by his subordinates while fleeing.
Hou Jing's rebellion finally came to an end.
This year, Manzi was 14 years old.
May, Liu Mansion.
"Brother Cheng, Brother Cheng! Hurry up!!" Manzi rushed in from outside the courtyard and stumbled on the threshold without noticing it.
"Manzi, why are you panicking. What's wrong with being so anxious?" Brother Cheng helped Manzi up, "I've never seen you lie like this before."
"Brother Cheng, let's pack up and leave Liu's house, this Liu's house can't stay any longer." Manzi panted and dragged Brother Cheng into the house.
Brother Cheng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the young master suddenly remembered that he wanted to silence him?Or did you discover Manzi's true appearance and fell in love with Manzi?No, it's impossible.
"You kid, what's the matter?"
"Brother Cheng, I just heard outside that General Chen Baxian of Lingnan has joined forces with Wang Sengbian and is heading towards Jiankang. Once Jiankang falls, the Liu family will be the number one important minister today. "The barbarian made a beheading gesture with his right hand on his neck, "We won't be able to escape when the time comes. Hurry up and hide now."
"Hey, you worry about it. Jiankang is so good at attacking? That one is very good today. What about Chen Baxian, what about Wang Sengbian, it would be nice if you don't get beaten back like a dog." Brother Cheng shook his head indifferently shook his head.
"Oh." Manzi stomped his feet angrily, "Brother Cheng, do you think this guy has a way of doing things today? You are a sensible person, and the people in Jiankang City are not afraid to speak out. On the other hand, Chen Baxian and Wang The reputation of monk debate is excellent."
Brother Cheng was a little hesitant.
"Those who have gained the Dao will be helped a lot, but those who have lost the Dao will not be helped." Manzi said in a low voice.
"Don't talk about it with me, I don't understand." Brother Cheng waved his hand.
"Okay, Brother Cheng, take a step back, even if Jiankang is impregnable forever, do you think Ah Qiang and the young master will always leave you alone?"
Brother Cheng was stunned for a moment, then grabbed Manzi's skirt and dragged it to the corner: "How did you know!?"
Manzi sighed: "Brother Cheng, you had nightmares at night and talked in your sleep more than once. Besides, I'm not a fool."
Manzi looked at Brother Cheng calmly: "You still let me hide from the young master, didn't you? Brother Cheng, you should be clear that the identity of that person is not as simple as a servant. Regardless of whether the Dongchuang incident happened or not, this Liu's residence is not A place to stay."
Brother Cheng looked blank and said nothing.
"Brother Cheng, let's sneak out of the house while people are panicking now." Manzi couldn't help but shook the shoulder of the thin black man who was already shorter than himself, "I know you hate A Cui from the kitchen, but can you Be sober, then A Cui has been betrothed to someone long ago, what are you doing?" Manzi patted Brother Cheng on the shoulder, "Brother Cheng, everyone has their own destiny, so you can't force it."
After a while, Brother Cheng smiled wryly: "Forget it, I'm almost ten years older than you, and I'm not as clear as you. Let me listen to you, your big ideas are always right."
Manzi smiled gratifiedly: "Okay, Brother Cheng."
In the days to come, Manzi couldn't help but think, if he had gone out one day earlier, if he had decisively left with Brother Cheng at that time, if the young master of the Cao family could have come one day later, then there would be many, many thing, isn't it going to happen...
But in this world, there is no if.
☆、Chapter 6
The sun was dim, and in the narrow courtyard, the two were firmly tied to a tree.
Several people were standing in the courtyard, and a young man in a fine attire with brocade sleeves was fanning lightly with a fine paper fan painted in ink.
"Brother Cao, why bother to go there personally, you can ask the younger brother to tie him up and give it to Brother Cao directly." The one who spoke was Liu Haoyu, the young master of the Liu family. hatred.
Almost three years have passed, why did I mention it today.
"Brother..." The son of the Cao family is tall and handsome, but he has a sinister smile on his face, which makes Liu Haoyu feel chills, "Brother, are you worried that this kid hasn't Is it...'suicide in fear of crime' when it is delivered to me?"
He laughed a few times, as if he didn't see the beads of sweat on Young Master Liu's forehead, he walked straight to Manzi and Brother Cheng who were tightly tied to the tree.The snake-like gaze swung Manzi's face a few times, and then turned to Brother Cheng again.
"Why, it's you, you are quite courageous to kill my molester." He slightly tilted his head, and put it against Brother Cheng's ear, "Still, you are being pointed out by others."
He straightened up, looked around, and twirled the thumb on his thumb casually: "If you are ordered by someone, speak up boldly, and I will make the decision for you."
Cheng Ge suddenly wanted to laugh a little bit, another round, another round.
If he summoned him, I'm afraid Mr. Cao would only say that he betrayed the Lord and killed him on the spot. He not only gave Young Master Liu a warning, but also sold him a favor.Lowly people like them will always be the victims of the open and secret struggles of the masters.Since the ending is always a dead word, it's better to sell Liu Shao's favor.
See, low as he is, he's of some use at this time.
"Master...Master Cao, it was the little ghost who was obsessed with money and did such dirty things." Brother Cheng cried bitterly, "You know the crime is serious, and you deserve death. Young master, young master..." Brother Cheng struggled and turned his head to Liu Haoyu, "This is a small matter, and the child doesn't know anything about it, please let him go."
Young Master Liu heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and looked at the barbarian who had been knocked out, with a hint of disgust in his eyes, why such an ugly person was in his Liu's residence.
"My son has always been very clear about right and wrong. Since he has nothing to do with the crime you committed, of course I will not embarrass him. But capital crimes can be avoided, and living crimes cannot be escaped. Let's throw it out with twenty boards."
Brother Cheng's face turned pale. With Manzi's body, playing [-] boards would have killed half his life.hateful!
"Hey, wait a minute." Mr. Cao raised his hand, with a smile that was not a smile, "I have lost my child molestation, this kid has a good figure, if Mr. Liu is willing to part with this kid, I will take care of this matter." Let it go."
Young Master Liu glanced at Manzi in surprise, and satirized in his heart that he would like such a guy.On the face, he smiled modestly: "Since brother Cao said so, of course my younger brother is willing."
"Young master, young master, this child is ugly, vulgar, weak and sickly, so he is not qualified to accept the favor of the young master." Brother Cheng's eyes widened, his head was in a mess, "Master... um... "The unfinished words are stuck in my throat and I can't say them anymore.
The knife in Ah Qiang's hand was deeply inserted into Brother Cheng's heart, and the blood soon soaked his clothes, and his turbid yellow eyes gradually lost their luster. One eyeball was fixed on Liu Shao who was standing beside him, and the other His eyes fell on Manzi, feeling ashamed, pained, and resentful.
In the end, can I still not save you?I'm sorry, kid, to bother you.
It turns out, really, I don't have the slightest qualification to negotiate terms with my masters, right...
"Aqiang, it's time to deal with it, don't dirty Cao Shao's eyes." Liu Haoyu made a gesture of invitation, "I haven't seen Brother Cao for a long time, let's have a good drink with Brother Cao today. The boy will send someone to see you off." Go to Brother Cao's house."
"Brother, please be polite, please." Cao Qingping was no longer courteous, and walked out of the yard first, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
In the interlacing of toasts and chips, the sky is getting dark.Cao Qingping bid farewell to Liu Haoyu, got into the carriage and left.
"Damn it," Liu Haoyu couldn't bear it any longer after Cao Qingping left, and brushed off the wine and plates on the table with a wave of his sleeve, "I really thought I was something. If it wasn't for the second uncle's defeat in the war, he Eldest brother has been reused, so it is his turn to talk to me like this. Not to mention one child molester, there are ten of them, and I can kill them. Damn!! I am so mad!!"
"Young master calm down, calm down. The boss of the Cao family is a fart, and Cao Qingping is a fart. How can the second master's heroism be compared to those clowns like them. The emperor was just poured into ecstasy soup for a while. Our chance for revenge There are plenty of them. My body is the most important." Ah Qiang hammered Liu Haoyu's legs in a hurry.
"Your mouth, I just love to listen. Cao Qingping's eyeballs are also smeared with feces, and he actually takes a fancy to such a disgusting kid."
"Yes, yes, what the young master said is true. The level of that person depends on his vision. How can he be compared with you, young master?"
The moon was half hidden in the night.
Cao's house.
"The young master is back." Hearing the announcement, the butler rushed out to greet him.
"How? Have you received the boy from the Liu residence?" Cao Qingping looked lazy.
"Back to the young master, I'm shutting him up in the firewood room." The butler bowed down and said respectfully.
"Let's go and have a look. Bring a wet towel and come here." Cao Qingping casually waved his gold-studded sleeves, and the cloud boots on the soles of his feet had already stepped out.
"Yes." The butler replied, busy lighting the lamp.
☆、Chapter 7
It was pitch black in front of him, and it took him a while to get used to it before he could vaguely see the scene in front of him through the faint moonlight outside the window.
This is a woodshed.
Manzi moved and couldn't help taking a breath.His head was hurting badly, his limbs were tightly bound by the hemp rope, and the pain was burning, and his flesh might have been worn out.
He took a deep breath and forced himself not to think about it, but what happened during the day played back uncontrollably in his mind.
Before he and Brother Cheng had time to leave, the servants headed by A Qiang broke into the courtyard, and he knew that something was going to happen at that time.It's ridiculous that he still wanted to hit him, but he was knocked out by Ah Qiang with a stick.When I opened my eyes again, it was this dark woodshed.
Although it was tied up and thrown on the ground, at least it was still alive.
But what about Brother Cheng?
Thinking of Brother Cheng, Manzi became very flustered.
"No, brother Cheng will be fine, definitely not, definitely not." He said to himself over and over again, trying to convince himself that the sick-looking and kind-hearted brother Cheng, the one who has been taking care of him My brother Cheng will definitely be able to save the day and escape this catastrophe.
There were footsteps and voices outside the door.
"Bring him out,"
"Yes."
Manzi took a deep breath, calm down, calm down, calm down.
The door of the firewood room was opened, and Manzi was thrown in front of Cao Qingping.
Manzi looked up at the handsome young master in front of him, feeling flustered in his heart.
Cao Qingping looked at the young man who was pretending to be calm, and curled his lips.
"Mo Zhu, wipe his face."
He looked at the barbarian under the candlelight lit by his servants.
This young man's face was strange, and he noticed it when the Liu family saw him for the first time.Although there was an ugly scar on this young man's face, and his complexion was extremely ugly, it couldn't conceal his naturally beautiful facial features, and there was a kind of contradiction everywhere.The hand that has done a lot of foul language is slender and fair, even if it is covered with calluses and cracks, it can't hide the beauty of the joints.
The contrast between this hand and this face has a world of difference.
In fact, at first, Cao Qingping thought this was just a handsome young man, so he looked at it casually, thinking about how to torture this young man to vent his anger.But as the not-so-clever disguise on the man's face was removed little by little, Cao Qingping's heart was turned upside down.
He felt that he was no longer in the world, how could there be a fairy of the nine heavens in the world, isn't the one in front of him the fairy of the nine heavens? !
The youth in front of him had peach blossom eyes that seemed to contain thousands of springs, and a immature face with a hint of maturity that did not match his age. His nose was straight and handsome, and his thin lips were tightly pressed together, outlining a seductive arc.
Cao Qingping felt that he was also a person who had read the Four Books and Five Classics thoroughly, but he couldn't find a suitable word to describe the person in front of him. "The face is like a crown of jade"? "Brown like a bright star"? "The nose hangs like a gall"?No, no, no, those words don't suit him.These words modifying ordinary people are not worthy of the young man in front of him.
Cao Qingping just stared at Manzi in a daze, his soul wandering away.
"Bang!" An ear-piercing sound pulled Cao Qingping back to his senses, but Mo Zhu had already stared blankly, and dropped the water basin in his hand to the ground.
Cao Qingping looked around at the people, all of them had just been awakened by the sound of the tub falling to the ground, and there was still an intoxicated look on their faces.
"Hahahaha!" Cao Qingping grabbed the barbarian, hugged him in his arms, and strode away, "Liu Haoyu is really blind. I, Cao Qingping, are so lucky to have this pearl. Bring hot water to my room."
The rope on Manzi's body was not removed, he couldn't move, his eyes met Cao Qingping's fiery eyes, and he couldn't help shivering.Heart sank.
The dim candlelight was beating, and Cao Qingping carefully took out a box. As soon as the box was opened, the room was brightly lit.He blew out the candle, stared fixedly at the huddled barbarian, and said: "Only this luminous pearl bestowed by the emperor is worthy of a beauty like you."
The hot water in the bathtub that can accommodate three people is steaming.
Cao Qingping untied the rope on Manzi's body, pressed him on the outer eaves of the tub with one hand, and slid on Manzi's eyebrows with the other hand, his eyes fascinated.
"Who are you?" The person under the finger suddenly spoke, the voice was comparable to the tinkling of a clear spring, and the rustling of a bamboo forest.
"Me?" Cao Qingping's voice was hoarse, "I am your master."
He lowered his head to kiss those alluring red lips.Manzi was startled, turned his head hurriedly and said loudly: "Where is Brother Cheng, what did Young Master Liu do to Brother Cheng? Please let me see Brother Cheng."
Without kissing the red lips, Cao Qingping raised his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled: "Brother Cheng? You are so intimate. I said why did that pariah want to save you before he died, saying that you are so vulgar and unworthy?" Serve this young master. Let me guess, how many times have you slept with him? Hmm?!!"
Cao Qingping's face changed suddenly, he grabbed Manzi's chin with one hand and lifted it up, biting it roughly.Manzi's face was pale, his mind went blank, Cao Qingping didn't even know he was biting his lip.
before dying...?
before death?before death?before dying...
die?Brother Cheng, is he dead?
Cao Qingping was secretly wondering about the obedience of the man in his arms, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the bridge of his nose, his eyes went dark instantly, and his ears buzzed.
Manzi shook his head, the bump just now made his forehead ache.He hurriedly stood up and kicked Cao Qingping's asshole without hesitation.
"Ah!" Cao Qingping couldn't dodge in time, was kicked by the barbarian, and let out a scream.
"Master? Master?" A servant's voice came from outside the door.
"Come on, come on!!" Cao Qingping gritted his teeth and growled.
Manzi looked left and right, picked up the wine glass on the small table next to the tub, and smashed it down. He picked up a piece from the fragments, put it on Cao Qingping's neck, and shouted at the servant who happened to rush in: "Don't bother!" move."
However, his threat didn't seem to have any deterrent effect, and the servants only hesitated for a moment before continuing to move forward.
Manzi's heart was hardened, and the fragment was inserted into it.Immediately, blood flowed down Cao Qingping's neck.
Everyone was stunned, no one thought that this seemingly weak young man would actually be able to do it.
"Everyone back down!" Manzi was a little hysterical, he knew clearly what would be waiting for him if he failed.
The servant finally started to back away.Manzi put his left arm around Cao Qingping's neck, and the sharp fragments in his hand pressed against his neck. He clenched his right hand into a fist and smashed it down on Cao Qingping's head without saying a word.Before Cao Qingping recovered from the pain in his nose, lower body, and neck, he passed out.
"Master!" Someone screamed and wanted to step forward.
"Don't move!!" Manzi exerted a little force on his hand, and the blood flowed faster. "Whoever doesn't listen to me, I can't guarantee that I will accidentally cut his throat."
The noise outside the house became more and more noisy, and the sky outside Cao Qing's bungalow, which was illuminated by the fire, was bright red.
"Prepare a carriage, put a knife and a bag of silver on it, hurry up!!" The servant who had no backbone hurriedly followed the barbarian's request.
Manzi dragged the fainted Cao Qingping to the gate of Cao's house with all his strength.
"Everyone back up, back up! Back up behind the door! Back up!" Manzi looked at the hundreds of servants around him, and his heart beat to fly out.
what to do?What should he do?Before the war, the security was so strict that it was impossible to get out of the city gate at this moment.The Cao family must have reported to the officials to arrest him.
Where should I go?Where should I go?
The barbarian dragged Cao Qingping into the carriage, and looked threateningly at the servants who were trying to approach and the officers and soldiers who rushed over.
"Whoever you dare to chase after me, I will cut off a piece of his flesh!! If you don't believe me, you can try it."
After Manzi finished speaking, seeing that those people really didn't dare to go forward, he didn't hesitate anymore, and drove out.
☆、Chapter 8
The carriage was running wildly on the road, two or three blocks away, there was a lot of people's voices, and the light from the torches illuminated the night.Many people who were sleeping were awakened and hid in their houses tremblingly, not daring to come out.
"Stop that carriage, just that one." In the direction of the carriage's speeding, a half-person-high rope has been pulled.
"My young master is still in the carriage, adults, please don't hurt my young master." It was the butler of the Cao family who was speaking, and cold sweat broke out on his pale face. If something happened to the second young master, the uncle came back and the family Don't even think about surviving.
At last the carriage was stopped, and the horses stomped and snorted and neighed.
"The people in the car get off, you are already surrounded."
Everyone formed a circle and gradually approached.But apart from the snorting of the horses, there was silence in the carriage.The few people in the lead winked, and suddenly opened the car curtain with a knife.
In the car, only Cao Qingping fainted, and Manzi was nowhere to be found.
The butler hastily asked someone to carry Cao Qingping back to the mansion, but the other side had already sent someone to invite the doctor.At the same time, an order has been issued to hunt down the barbarian, charged with assassination.
The Cao Mansion was in a state of being turned on its back all night.
He could vaguely hear the noise in the distance, Manzi hastily bandaged his leg that was scratched when he jumped off the carriage, bit his lip and swallowed back the low hum that almost overflowed.
Fortunately, the yard where he has stayed for nearly three years is close to the fence of Liu's residence. Fortunately, he once found a dog hole in the backyard while wandering around. Fortunately, no one has moved into this yard yet.
There are still ropes under the trees in the yard that have not been taken away, and the dried blood on the soil is dark in the moonlight.
Manzi only felt a tingling pain in his heart.
He still couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe that Brother Cheng was dead.
They were still thinking about where to go and what to do after leaving the Liu Mansion last night.
He still remembered Brother Cheng slapping his thigh and yelling: "When I am rich, I will marry a daughter-in-law, marry a daughter-in-law like A Cui."
That scene is still vivid, as if it just happened.
Brother Cheng is his only friend, just like his elder brother, he longs for the long-lost feeling of home, the feeling of home that he has never had since his father died.
What now?Brother Cheng also died, and another person who really cared about him died again... The feeling of home is gone, gone, gone again.
Hatred climbed into Manzi's heart, he hated the blindness of God, the chaotic world, Liu Haoyu, Cao Qingping, and Ah Qiang.
I remember that Brother Cheng often said to him: "To be a servant, you must abide by your duty." Brother Cheng firmly adhered to this creed, and lived carefully by guarding his duty.
The results of it?
Manzi wanted to laugh, what is duty, what is duty? !There is also my father, and a dozen or so men in the village who have been taken away, and I don't know whether they are dead or alive, and the corpse that Brother Cheng was ordered to dispose of.Who hasn't guarded those duties carefully, just to survive? !
Are you alive?Are you alive?Are they all alive? ! ! !
Manzi tightly held the rope in his hand, and the blue blood vessels on the back of his hand were slightly raised.
What duty?To hell!My life is up to me, not others!
Manzi suddenly regretted not finishing Cao Qingping before jumping off the carriage.
It is conceivable that Cao Qingping will never let him go, he will only give himself two ways, either compromise or die.But what is the difference between compromise and death?
Since either he dies or I die, is there a choice?
He stood up slowly, straightened the messy skirt of his body, raised his right hand, and the wooden hairpin of the surgery fell into the palm of his hand, and the ink-like black hair drew a graceful arc in the air.
The corner of Manzi's mouth curled up into a smile, that smile was weird but overwhelming.
Cao Qingping, will not let go.Liu Haoyu.Will not let go.Ah Qiang, I won't let you go.
None!
☆、Chapter 9
"Fairy...fairy." Liu Haoyu stared blankly at the indistinguishable beauty in front of him.
That immortal-like figure had a mournful expression, his eyes seemed sad and resentful, and he just locked himself like that, as if he had a thousand words to say to him.Liu Haoyu only felt that his whole body was soft, and his heart became soft like cotton, soft like water.
"Young Master..." One call is repeated thousands of times, as if carrying thousands of affections, "Help me..."
Liu Haoyu's obsessed expression was filled with distress: "The fairy can tell me anything, and I will definitely go through fire and water, and I will do whatever it takes."
In the middle of the night, he was woken up by a servant, saying that someone wanted to see him.Angrily, he kicked the ignorant thing away, wondering when these servants were so ignorant of the rules, and who was so bold as to disturb his sleep.Unexpectedly, the person in front of him was so stunning, he really wouldn't regret dying at this moment.
"Young Master, but you don't recognize me?" Manzi wept, "It was in vain that I showed my sincerity to Young Master. I tried my best to keep my innocence and come back to see Young Master."
Liu Haoyu only felt his heart tremble, and quickly hugged the beautiful woman: "How can I be willing to break your heart, I have never met you before, otherwise, how could I forget your stunning appearance?"
"Master, I am the same ugly monster you gave to the Cao family's young master today." The voice of the person in his arms was full of grievances and a trace of complaint.
Liu Haoyu was taken aback: "This, how is this possible, the two of you, this, can't be described with a world of difference!!"
"It was Ah Cheng who forced me to do that. Every time I want to see the young master, he will teach me a lesson. Even though I like you, young master, I have never had a chance to tell the young master."
Liu Haoyu was furious immediately, his teeth were clenched, and he said angrily: "I really shouldn't have ended him so easily!!"
Liu Haoyu, who was busy cursing Brother Cheng, didn't notice that the person in his arms froze for a moment.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Haoyu thought of what the man in his arms had just said: "Come on, tell me, young master, what wronged you. I, young master, will make the decision for you."
The person in his arms raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes turned back and forth, half of Liu Haoyu's body collapsed.
"Then Master Cao saw my true face and tried to take my body. I..." The fairy-like person turned his head and ignored Liu Haoyu.
Liu Haoyu suddenly felt angry, he hates that Cao Qingping is delusional about him! !
"I, I managed to escape to meet the young master." Liu Haoyu felt extremely distressed when he heard it.
"He will definitely come to catch me. Tonight I am saying goodbye to the young master...and the young master."
"Who dares!!" Liu Haoyu hurriedly grabbed the beautiful woman's hand, "Who dares to miss you all night!! Then Cao Qingping dares to come, this young master will make him look good!"
According to the momentum of the Cao family being high, in fact, it is really not suitable for the Liu family to act emotionally at this time.However, Manzi has always believed that no one can stay calm forever, it's just that they don't have enough chips.And by myself, why can Liu Haoyu and Cao Qingping confront each other?
Is it because I have a high value, or is this Liu Haoyu too stupid?
"Beauty..." Liu Haoyu has already waved back, and at this time some sperm are on his head.
"Is the young master sincere to me?" Manzi stared fixedly at Liu Haoyu who was making a fuss.
Liu Haoyu did not hesitate: "Of course."
"My leg is hurt, it hurts, it's Cao Qingping."
"What!!" Liu Haoyu punched the table. "Come on, call the doctor."
"Yes." There was an answer from outside.
"Master, I made a wish when I escaped from Cao's mansion. If I can escape and return to the young master, I will abstain from meat and lust for half a year. Young master..." Manzi lowered his head, his beautiful neck was slender and elegant, "Young master, do you want me I broke my oath. Young master, don't you care about me at all?"
No matter how itchy Liu Haoyu was, he couldn't bear to make the beauty sad.
"I can't wait to give you my heart." Although he felt extremely regretful, for Sanyue, he could afford to wait for such stunning beauty.
At the same time, the brightly lit Cao Mansion.
"Catch him! My young master must catch this ignorant pariah!!" Cao Qingping's roar pulled the wound on his neck, causing him to gasp in pain, with hatred in his heart.When you catch him, you must torture him well!Cao Qingping's fists were clenched tightly, and his joints creaked.
☆、Chapter 10
"Then, Mr. Liu is unwilling to give me this face." Cao Qingping sneered, unable to control the deep longing in his wolf-like eyes.
"How do you say this? Isn't Mr. Cao unwilling to give me face, Mr. Cao, don't forget, he is originally from my Liu family. Is it true that Mr. Cao is a gentleman?"
"I hope, Mr. Liu will not regret it one day!" Cao Qingping walked away in a huff.
.................................. ....................................................
In the exquisite room, the incense on the incense burner is surrounded by traces of green smoke.
"Young Master, it's all the Manzi's fault that made the Young Master offend Young Master Cao." The Manzi looked guilty. "
"What does it mean to be offended?" Liu Haoyu's face darkened, "Do I have to be respectful to him!!"
"Master, the Manzi was wrong, please calm down, Master." Manzi lowered his head and couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.
Liu Haoyu quickly comforted: "I'm angry with Cao Qingping, what's wrong with you. Don't worry, with my young master here, I will never let him hurt you." As he spoke, he touched Manzi's body with his palm.
"Master..." Manzi flashed sideways, "Master, Sanyue, can't you wait for me? Can't you wait for me?"
Liu Haoyu coughed lightly, a little embarrassed: "Who made you so charming. Forget it, it doesn't matter if I wait for it in March."
"Manzi thanked the young master for his great kindness."
Thinking about things in the dark will always inexplicably give birth to a kind of despair and self-abandonment.
Manzi passed the white jade cup that he hadn't touched in the past ten years with his finger. The clothes made of good material on his body were close-fitting and comfortable, and there was a vague fragrance in the room.
Such a self will always make him a little contemptuous and disgusting.
He, Han Manzi, has always behaved rightly and never done anything wrong, so he considers himself worthy of the word "gentleman".But what about now?
The eyes that are as bright as stars are full of confusion.
What was the original purpose?To avenge Brother Cheng and protect himself.As weak as he is, he can only come up with this one solution.But is it right to do so?The ancients said: "It is better to be broken jade than to be whole." For him, at present, he is either to be a spoiled pet or to die.Even if it can be delayed beyond March, what about in the future?Does such a life really make sense?
Or dead, once and for all?
But why should I die?Am I doing something wrong?Am I guilty?Why should I die? !Why? !
How long can he last such a life of hypocrisy and obedience?Every time he faced Liu Haoyu and A Qiang's face, God knows how much patience he used to not show disgust.
The slender but slightly rough hands on the white jade cup held it tightly, tightly.
Manzi blamed God more than once, when he was a child suffering from hunger and cold, when his father was killed by the rebel army, and when Brother Cheng died tragically.At the same time, he also thanked God more than once, when Master Wang agreed to listen to him, when his father adopted him, and when he met Brother Cheng.His life is full of misfortunes, but he keeps meeting noble people in his life.It's amazing, right?
But this time, Manzi was full of gratitude.When he was lost and hopeless, the sudden reversal of the battle situation saved him.
Cao Qingping's eldest brother led the army to a disadvantage, and the whole army was wiped out. In a rage, Hou Jing ordered the entire family of Cao's family to be destroyed.Afterwards, Hou Jingyu drove himself to conquer, but fled in a big defeat, was killed by his subordinates, and died tragically outside.Jiankang is at stake.
The civilians cheered, officials at all levels of Hou Jing's court died and fled.
"Quick, pack up the gold and silver, let's leave Jiankang quickly. Pack up quickly, and I'll pick you up later." Liu Haoyu's eyes were bloodshot, and he no longer had the look of the past.
"Okay." Manzi looked at Liu Haoyu who was leaving, and suddenly felt sorry for him.Forget it, let it be like this, a person who fell into the dust from the sky is probably more painful than letting him die.
So now, there is only one thing left for him.
"Second, Second Lord?!" Ah Qiang looked at the man who was slowly walking towards him, his mind went blank. "Don't be nervous, I know you have never dared to face me because you hit me with a stick. But, I am also grateful that you killed that Ah Cheng to vent my hatred." powerful.
"This glass of wine, I respect you, and let us drink away our grievances, how about it?"
That Ah Qiang was already stunned, took the wine in a daze and drank it down. He saw that the smile on the face of the person in front of him became more and more moving.His body was so weak that he couldn't stand still, and sat on the ground.Is it because of the wine, or because of the laugh?He will soon find out.
Manzi didn't stay any longer, turned around and left resolutely. After walking about a hundred meters, he heard the scream of suppressing great pain.For the dead brother Cheng, for the lives of the many people who died in A Qiang's hands, are his hands also covered with blood?But it's worth it!
The Liu residence is in chaos, everyone is in danger, no one, and no one will care about the barbarian who swaggered out from the main entrance.
Later people heard that the once domineering young master of the Liu family was crazy, but no one cared about why he was crazy.People would just spit indifferently: "It deserves it."
Later, Jiankang City, which had settled down, had an extra shoemaker.
☆、Chapter 11
There have been two major events in Jiankang City recently.
Hou Jing's defeat was one thing. Wang Sengbian brought back Hou Jing's body and whipped it in the health city.The people in Jiankang ate up his body, including Hou Jing's wife, Princess Liyang.
Another thing is that there is a cobbler who looks like a heaven and a man.
In Jiankang City, where the rebellion had not been put down for a long time, the people's emotions were extremely high these days.Not only can I eat the meat of Hou Jing, who was once hated but dared not utter a word, but I can also meet such a stunning person in my lifetime.
People used to only hear about characters such as Pan An, Song Yu, and Wei Jie, but they couldn't imagine what kind of appearance they must have, so that they made all the people in the world crazy.But that man, that man who was not as weak as the crown, let everyone who saw his face feel that even if Pan An Songyu was alive, he was nothing more than that.
Regardless of his status, a shoe repairer is really not worthy of his exile-like face.
However, the number of people with broken shoes in Jiankang City increased by nearly a hundred times in an instant, and it was even necessary to make an appointment one day in advance for shoe repairs.
Manzi looked helplessly at the long line outside the shoe repair shop, rubbed his sore shoulders, and planned to hire a buddy another day.
In fact, at the beginning, Manzi considered covering up his true face as he did when Brother Cheng was alive.Later he changed his mind.A person's life is really not long, so why bother to wrong yourself because of too many worries.He didn't do anything shady, and he didn't break the law. Why did he have to cover it up? That's what a man does.
In the past six months, nothing happened.However, there is a saying that "the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows". No one else knows it, only you know it, and you can take it into your bag.However, if you know more than one person, you will consider a lot and worry a lot.
Just checks and balances.
There was a bully who molested the barbarian and ended up with a finger cut off.Those who were present at that time still have lingering fears when they mentioned it.It never occurred to me that the man who was laughing so hard one moment ago would burst into laughter the next second.
The Liu Mansion allowed him to see more of the world and understand more things.He understands more and more that joining the army is not an easy task with his current ability.
He still needs time and needs to grow.
However, the situation in Jiankang was once again turned upside down.
After Chen Baxian joined forces with Wang Sengbian, they recovered Jiankang in September 552.
Hou Jing was killed by his subordinates while fleeing.
Hou Jing's rebellion finally came to an end.
This year, Manzi was 14 years old.
May, Liu Mansion.
"Brother Cheng, Brother Cheng! Hurry up!!" Manzi rushed in from outside the courtyard and stumbled on the threshold without noticing it.
"Manzi, why are you panicking. What's wrong with being so anxious?" Brother Cheng helped Manzi up, "I've never seen you lie like this before."
"Brother Cheng, let's pack up and leave Liu's house, this Liu's house can't stay any longer." Manzi panted and dragged Brother Cheng into the house.
Brother Cheng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the young master suddenly remembered that he wanted to silence him?Or did you discover Manzi's true appearance and fell in love with Manzi?No, it's impossible.
"You kid, what's the matter?"
"Brother Cheng, I just heard outside that General Chen Baxian of Lingnan has joined forces with Wang Sengbian and is heading towards Jiankang. Once Jiankang falls, the Liu family will be the number one important minister today. "The barbarian made a beheading gesture with his right hand on his neck, "We won't be able to escape when the time comes. Hurry up and hide now."
"Hey, you worry about it. Jiankang is so good at attacking? That one is very good today. What about Chen Baxian, what about Wang Sengbian, it would be nice if you don't get beaten back like a dog." Brother Cheng shook his head indifferently shook his head.
"Oh." Manzi stomped his feet angrily, "Brother Cheng, do you think this guy has a way of doing things today? You are a sensible person, and the people in Jiankang City are not afraid to speak out. On the other hand, Chen Baxian and Wang The reputation of monk debate is excellent."
Brother Cheng was a little hesitant.
"Those who have gained the Dao will be helped a lot, but those who have lost the Dao will not be helped." Manzi said in a low voice.
"Don't talk about it with me, I don't understand." Brother Cheng waved his hand.
"Okay, Brother Cheng, take a step back, even if Jiankang is impregnable forever, do you think Ah Qiang and the young master will always leave you alone?"
Brother Cheng was stunned for a moment, then grabbed Manzi's skirt and dragged it to the corner: "How did you know!?"
Manzi sighed: "Brother Cheng, you had nightmares at night and talked in your sleep more than once. Besides, I'm not a fool."
Manzi looked at Brother Cheng calmly: "You still let me hide from the young master, didn't you? Brother Cheng, you should be clear that the identity of that person is not as simple as a servant. Regardless of whether the Dongchuang incident happened or not, this Liu's residence is not A place to stay."
Brother Cheng looked blank and said nothing.
"Brother Cheng, let's sneak out of the house while people are panicking now." Manzi couldn't help but shook the shoulder of the thin black man who was already shorter than himself, "I know you hate A Cui from the kitchen, but can you Be sober, then A Cui has been betrothed to someone long ago, what are you doing?" Manzi patted Brother Cheng on the shoulder, "Brother Cheng, everyone has their own destiny, so you can't force it."
After a while, Brother Cheng smiled wryly: "Forget it, I'm almost ten years older than you, and I'm not as clear as you. Let me listen to you, your big ideas are always right."
Manzi smiled gratifiedly: "Okay, Brother Cheng."
In the days to come, Manzi couldn't help but think, if he had gone out one day earlier, if he had decisively left with Brother Cheng at that time, if the young master of the Cao family could have come one day later, then there would be many, many thing, isn't it going to happen...
But in this world, there is no if.
☆、Chapter 6
The sun was dim, and in the narrow courtyard, the two were firmly tied to a tree.
Several people were standing in the courtyard, and a young man in a fine attire with brocade sleeves was fanning lightly with a fine paper fan painted in ink.
"Brother Cao, why bother to go there personally, you can ask the younger brother to tie him up and give it to Brother Cao directly." The one who spoke was Liu Haoyu, the young master of the Liu family. hatred.
Almost three years have passed, why did I mention it today.
"Brother..." The son of the Cao family is tall and handsome, but he has a sinister smile on his face, which makes Liu Haoyu feel chills, "Brother, are you worried that this kid hasn't Is it...'suicide in fear of crime' when it is delivered to me?"
He laughed a few times, as if he didn't see the beads of sweat on Young Master Liu's forehead, he walked straight to Manzi and Brother Cheng who were tightly tied to the tree.The snake-like gaze swung Manzi's face a few times, and then turned to Brother Cheng again.
"Why, it's you, you are quite courageous to kill my molester." He slightly tilted his head, and put it against Brother Cheng's ear, "Still, you are being pointed out by others."
He straightened up, looked around, and twirled the thumb on his thumb casually: "If you are ordered by someone, speak up boldly, and I will make the decision for you."
Cheng Ge suddenly wanted to laugh a little bit, another round, another round.
If he summoned him, I'm afraid Mr. Cao would only say that he betrayed the Lord and killed him on the spot. He not only gave Young Master Liu a warning, but also sold him a favor.Lowly people like them will always be the victims of the open and secret struggles of the masters.Since the ending is always a dead word, it's better to sell Liu Shao's favor.
See, low as he is, he's of some use at this time.
"Master...Master Cao, it was the little ghost who was obsessed with money and did such dirty things." Brother Cheng cried bitterly, "You know the crime is serious, and you deserve death. Young master, young master..." Brother Cheng struggled and turned his head to Liu Haoyu, "This is a small matter, and the child doesn't know anything about it, please let him go."
Young Master Liu heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and looked at the barbarian who had been knocked out, with a hint of disgust in his eyes, why such an ugly person was in his Liu's residence.
"My son has always been very clear about right and wrong. Since he has nothing to do with the crime you committed, of course I will not embarrass him. But capital crimes can be avoided, and living crimes cannot be escaped. Let's throw it out with twenty boards."
Brother Cheng's face turned pale. With Manzi's body, playing [-] boards would have killed half his life.hateful!
"Hey, wait a minute." Mr. Cao raised his hand, with a smile that was not a smile, "I have lost my child molestation, this kid has a good figure, if Mr. Liu is willing to part with this kid, I will take care of this matter." Let it go."
Young Master Liu glanced at Manzi in surprise, and satirized in his heart that he would like such a guy.On the face, he smiled modestly: "Since brother Cao said so, of course my younger brother is willing."
"Young master, young master, this child is ugly, vulgar, weak and sickly, so he is not qualified to accept the favor of the young master." Brother Cheng's eyes widened, his head was in a mess, "Master... um... "The unfinished words are stuck in my throat and I can't say them anymore.
The knife in Ah Qiang's hand was deeply inserted into Brother Cheng's heart, and the blood soon soaked his clothes, and his turbid yellow eyes gradually lost their luster. One eyeball was fixed on Liu Shao who was standing beside him, and the other His eyes fell on Manzi, feeling ashamed, pained, and resentful.
In the end, can I still not save you?I'm sorry, kid, to bother you.
It turns out, really, I don't have the slightest qualification to negotiate terms with my masters, right...
"Aqiang, it's time to deal with it, don't dirty Cao Shao's eyes." Liu Haoyu made a gesture of invitation, "I haven't seen Brother Cao for a long time, let's have a good drink with Brother Cao today. The boy will send someone to see you off." Go to Brother Cao's house."
"Brother, please be polite, please." Cao Qingping was no longer courteous, and walked out of the yard first, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
In the interlacing of toasts and chips, the sky is getting dark.Cao Qingping bid farewell to Liu Haoyu, got into the carriage and left.
"Damn it," Liu Haoyu couldn't bear it any longer after Cao Qingping left, and brushed off the wine and plates on the table with a wave of his sleeve, "I really thought I was something. If it wasn't for the second uncle's defeat in the war, he Eldest brother has been reused, so it is his turn to talk to me like this. Not to mention one child molester, there are ten of them, and I can kill them. Damn!! I am so mad!!"
"Young master calm down, calm down. The boss of the Cao family is a fart, and Cao Qingping is a fart. How can the second master's heroism be compared to those clowns like them. The emperor was just poured into ecstasy soup for a while. Our chance for revenge There are plenty of them. My body is the most important." Ah Qiang hammered Liu Haoyu's legs in a hurry.
"Your mouth, I just love to listen. Cao Qingping's eyeballs are also smeared with feces, and he actually takes a fancy to such a disgusting kid."
"Yes, yes, what the young master said is true. The level of that person depends on his vision. How can he be compared with you, young master?"
The moon was half hidden in the night.
Cao's house.
"The young master is back." Hearing the announcement, the butler rushed out to greet him.
"How? Have you received the boy from the Liu residence?" Cao Qingping looked lazy.
"Back to the young master, I'm shutting him up in the firewood room." The butler bowed down and said respectfully.
"Let's go and have a look. Bring a wet towel and come here." Cao Qingping casually waved his gold-studded sleeves, and the cloud boots on the soles of his feet had already stepped out.
"Yes." The butler replied, busy lighting the lamp.
☆、Chapter 7
It was pitch black in front of him, and it took him a while to get used to it before he could vaguely see the scene in front of him through the faint moonlight outside the window.
This is a woodshed.
Manzi moved and couldn't help taking a breath.His head was hurting badly, his limbs were tightly bound by the hemp rope, and the pain was burning, and his flesh might have been worn out.
He took a deep breath and forced himself not to think about it, but what happened during the day played back uncontrollably in his mind.
Before he and Brother Cheng had time to leave, the servants headed by A Qiang broke into the courtyard, and he knew that something was going to happen at that time.It's ridiculous that he still wanted to hit him, but he was knocked out by Ah Qiang with a stick.When I opened my eyes again, it was this dark woodshed.
Although it was tied up and thrown on the ground, at least it was still alive.
But what about Brother Cheng?
Thinking of Brother Cheng, Manzi became very flustered.
"No, brother Cheng will be fine, definitely not, definitely not." He said to himself over and over again, trying to convince himself that the sick-looking and kind-hearted brother Cheng, the one who has been taking care of him My brother Cheng will definitely be able to save the day and escape this catastrophe.
There were footsteps and voices outside the door.
"Bring him out,"
"Yes."
Manzi took a deep breath, calm down, calm down, calm down.
The door of the firewood room was opened, and Manzi was thrown in front of Cao Qingping.
Manzi looked up at the handsome young master in front of him, feeling flustered in his heart.
Cao Qingping looked at the young man who was pretending to be calm, and curled his lips.
"Mo Zhu, wipe his face."
He looked at the barbarian under the candlelight lit by his servants.
This young man's face was strange, and he noticed it when the Liu family saw him for the first time.Although there was an ugly scar on this young man's face, and his complexion was extremely ugly, it couldn't conceal his naturally beautiful facial features, and there was a kind of contradiction everywhere.The hand that has done a lot of foul language is slender and fair, even if it is covered with calluses and cracks, it can't hide the beauty of the joints.
The contrast between this hand and this face has a world of difference.
In fact, at first, Cao Qingping thought this was just a handsome young man, so he looked at it casually, thinking about how to torture this young man to vent his anger.But as the not-so-clever disguise on the man's face was removed little by little, Cao Qingping's heart was turned upside down.
He felt that he was no longer in the world, how could there be a fairy of the nine heavens in the world, isn't the one in front of him the fairy of the nine heavens? !
The youth in front of him had peach blossom eyes that seemed to contain thousands of springs, and a immature face with a hint of maturity that did not match his age. His nose was straight and handsome, and his thin lips were tightly pressed together, outlining a seductive arc.
Cao Qingping felt that he was also a person who had read the Four Books and Five Classics thoroughly, but he couldn't find a suitable word to describe the person in front of him. "The face is like a crown of jade"? "Brown like a bright star"? "The nose hangs like a gall"?No, no, no, those words don't suit him.These words modifying ordinary people are not worthy of the young man in front of him.
Cao Qingping just stared at Manzi in a daze, his soul wandering away.
"Bang!" An ear-piercing sound pulled Cao Qingping back to his senses, but Mo Zhu had already stared blankly, and dropped the water basin in his hand to the ground.
Cao Qingping looked around at the people, all of them had just been awakened by the sound of the tub falling to the ground, and there was still an intoxicated look on their faces.
"Hahahaha!" Cao Qingping grabbed the barbarian, hugged him in his arms, and strode away, "Liu Haoyu is really blind. I, Cao Qingping, are so lucky to have this pearl. Bring hot water to my room."
The rope on Manzi's body was not removed, he couldn't move, his eyes met Cao Qingping's fiery eyes, and he couldn't help shivering.Heart sank.
The dim candlelight was beating, and Cao Qingping carefully took out a box. As soon as the box was opened, the room was brightly lit.He blew out the candle, stared fixedly at the huddled barbarian, and said: "Only this luminous pearl bestowed by the emperor is worthy of a beauty like you."
The hot water in the bathtub that can accommodate three people is steaming.
Cao Qingping untied the rope on Manzi's body, pressed him on the outer eaves of the tub with one hand, and slid on Manzi's eyebrows with the other hand, his eyes fascinated.
"Who are you?" The person under the finger suddenly spoke, the voice was comparable to the tinkling of a clear spring, and the rustling of a bamboo forest.
"Me?" Cao Qingping's voice was hoarse, "I am your master."
He lowered his head to kiss those alluring red lips.Manzi was startled, turned his head hurriedly and said loudly: "Where is Brother Cheng, what did Young Master Liu do to Brother Cheng? Please let me see Brother Cheng."
Without kissing the red lips, Cao Qingping raised his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled: "Brother Cheng? You are so intimate. I said why did that pariah want to save you before he died, saying that you are so vulgar and unworthy?" Serve this young master. Let me guess, how many times have you slept with him? Hmm?!!"
Cao Qingping's face changed suddenly, he grabbed Manzi's chin with one hand and lifted it up, biting it roughly.Manzi's face was pale, his mind went blank, Cao Qingping didn't even know he was biting his lip.
before dying...?
before death?before death?before dying...
die?Brother Cheng, is he dead?
Cao Qingping was secretly wondering about the obedience of the man in his arms, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the bridge of his nose, his eyes went dark instantly, and his ears buzzed.
Manzi shook his head, the bump just now made his forehead ache.He hurriedly stood up and kicked Cao Qingping's asshole without hesitation.
"Ah!" Cao Qingping couldn't dodge in time, was kicked by the barbarian, and let out a scream.
"Master? Master?" A servant's voice came from outside the door.
"Come on, come on!!" Cao Qingping gritted his teeth and growled.
Manzi looked left and right, picked up the wine glass on the small table next to the tub, and smashed it down. He picked up a piece from the fragments, put it on Cao Qingping's neck, and shouted at the servant who happened to rush in: "Don't bother!" move."
However, his threat didn't seem to have any deterrent effect, and the servants only hesitated for a moment before continuing to move forward.
Manzi's heart was hardened, and the fragment was inserted into it.Immediately, blood flowed down Cao Qingping's neck.
Everyone was stunned, no one thought that this seemingly weak young man would actually be able to do it.
"Everyone back down!" Manzi was a little hysterical, he knew clearly what would be waiting for him if he failed.
The servant finally started to back away.Manzi put his left arm around Cao Qingping's neck, and the sharp fragments in his hand pressed against his neck. He clenched his right hand into a fist and smashed it down on Cao Qingping's head without saying a word.Before Cao Qingping recovered from the pain in his nose, lower body, and neck, he passed out.
"Master!" Someone screamed and wanted to step forward.
"Don't move!!" Manzi exerted a little force on his hand, and the blood flowed faster. "Whoever doesn't listen to me, I can't guarantee that I will accidentally cut his throat."
The noise outside the house became more and more noisy, and the sky outside Cao Qing's bungalow, which was illuminated by the fire, was bright red.
"Prepare a carriage, put a knife and a bag of silver on it, hurry up!!" The servant who had no backbone hurriedly followed the barbarian's request.
Manzi dragged the fainted Cao Qingping to the gate of Cao's house with all his strength.
"Everyone back up, back up! Back up behind the door! Back up!" Manzi looked at the hundreds of servants around him, and his heart beat to fly out.
what to do?What should he do?Before the war, the security was so strict that it was impossible to get out of the city gate at this moment.The Cao family must have reported to the officials to arrest him.
Where should I go?Where should I go?
The barbarian dragged Cao Qingping into the carriage, and looked threateningly at the servants who were trying to approach and the officers and soldiers who rushed over.
"Whoever you dare to chase after me, I will cut off a piece of his flesh!! If you don't believe me, you can try it."
After Manzi finished speaking, seeing that those people really didn't dare to go forward, he didn't hesitate anymore, and drove out.
☆、Chapter 8
The carriage was running wildly on the road, two or three blocks away, there was a lot of people's voices, and the light from the torches illuminated the night.Many people who were sleeping were awakened and hid in their houses tremblingly, not daring to come out.
"Stop that carriage, just that one." In the direction of the carriage's speeding, a half-person-high rope has been pulled.
"My young master is still in the carriage, adults, please don't hurt my young master." It was the butler of the Cao family who was speaking, and cold sweat broke out on his pale face. If something happened to the second young master, the uncle came back and the family Don't even think about surviving.
At last the carriage was stopped, and the horses stomped and snorted and neighed.
"The people in the car get off, you are already surrounded."
Everyone formed a circle and gradually approached.But apart from the snorting of the horses, there was silence in the carriage.The few people in the lead winked, and suddenly opened the car curtain with a knife.
In the car, only Cao Qingping fainted, and Manzi was nowhere to be found.
The butler hastily asked someone to carry Cao Qingping back to the mansion, but the other side had already sent someone to invite the doctor.At the same time, an order has been issued to hunt down the barbarian, charged with assassination.
The Cao Mansion was in a state of being turned on its back all night.
He could vaguely hear the noise in the distance, Manzi hastily bandaged his leg that was scratched when he jumped off the carriage, bit his lip and swallowed back the low hum that almost overflowed.
Fortunately, the yard where he has stayed for nearly three years is close to the fence of Liu's residence. Fortunately, he once found a dog hole in the backyard while wandering around. Fortunately, no one has moved into this yard yet.
There are still ropes under the trees in the yard that have not been taken away, and the dried blood on the soil is dark in the moonlight.
Manzi only felt a tingling pain in his heart.
He still couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe that Brother Cheng was dead.
They were still thinking about where to go and what to do after leaving the Liu Mansion last night.
He still remembered Brother Cheng slapping his thigh and yelling: "When I am rich, I will marry a daughter-in-law, marry a daughter-in-law like A Cui."
That scene is still vivid, as if it just happened.
Brother Cheng is his only friend, just like his elder brother, he longs for the long-lost feeling of home, the feeling of home that he has never had since his father died.
What now?Brother Cheng also died, and another person who really cared about him died again... The feeling of home is gone, gone, gone again.
Hatred climbed into Manzi's heart, he hated the blindness of God, the chaotic world, Liu Haoyu, Cao Qingping, and Ah Qiang.
I remember that Brother Cheng often said to him: "To be a servant, you must abide by your duty." Brother Cheng firmly adhered to this creed, and lived carefully by guarding his duty.
The results of it?
Manzi wanted to laugh, what is duty, what is duty? !There is also my father, and a dozen or so men in the village who have been taken away, and I don't know whether they are dead or alive, and the corpse that Brother Cheng was ordered to dispose of.Who hasn't guarded those duties carefully, just to survive? !
Are you alive?Are you alive?Are they all alive? ! ! !
Manzi tightly held the rope in his hand, and the blue blood vessels on the back of his hand were slightly raised.
What duty?To hell!My life is up to me, not others!
Manzi suddenly regretted not finishing Cao Qingping before jumping off the carriage.
It is conceivable that Cao Qingping will never let him go, he will only give himself two ways, either compromise or die.But what is the difference between compromise and death?
Since either he dies or I die, is there a choice?
He stood up slowly, straightened the messy skirt of his body, raised his right hand, and the wooden hairpin of the surgery fell into the palm of his hand, and the ink-like black hair drew a graceful arc in the air.
The corner of Manzi's mouth curled up into a smile, that smile was weird but overwhelming.
Cao Qingping, will not let go.Liu Haoyu.Will not let go.Ah Qiang, I won't let you go.
None!
☆、Chapter 9
"Fairy...fairy." Liu Haoyu stared blankly at the indistinguishable beauty in front of him.
That immortal-like figure had a mournful expression, his eyes seemed sad and resentful, and he just locked himself like that, as if he had a thousand words to say to him.Liu Haoyu only felt that his whole body was soft, and his heart became soft like cotton, soft like water.
"Young Master..." One call is repeated thousands of times, as if carrying thousands of affections, "Help me..."
Liu Haoyu's obsessed expression was filled with distress: "The fairy can tell me anything, and I will definitely go through fire and water, and I will do whatever it takes."
In the middle of the night, he was woken up by a servant, saying that someone wanted to see him.Angrily, he kicked the ignorant thing away, wondering when these servants were so ignorant of the rules, and who was so bold as to disturb his sleep.Unexpectedly, the person in front of him was so stunning, he really wouldn't regret dying at this moment.
"Young Master, but you don't recognize me?" Manzi wept, "It was in vain that I showed my sincerity to Young Master. I tried my best to keep my innocence and come back to see Young Master."
Liu Haoyu only felt his heart tremble, and quickly hugged the beautiful woman: "How can I be willing to break your heart, I have never met you before, otherwise, how could I forget your stunning appearance?"
"Master, I am the same ugly monster you gave to the Cao family's young master today." The voice of the person in his arms was full of grievances and a trace of complaint.
Liu Haoyu was taken aback: "This, how is this possible, the two of you, this, can't be described with a world of difference!!"
"It was Ah Cheng who forced me to do that. Every time I want to see the young master, he will teach me a lesson. Even though I like you, young master, I have never had a chance to tell the young master."
Liu Haoyu was furious immediately, his teeth were clenched, and he said angrily: "I really shouldn't have ended him so easily!!"
Liu Haoyu, who was busy cursing Brother Cheng, didn't notice that the person in his arms froze for a moment.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Haoyu thought of what the man in his arms had just said: "Come on, tell me, young master, what wronged you. I, young master, will make the decision for you."
The person in his arms raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes turned back and forth, half of Liu Haoyu's body collapsed.
"Then Master Cao saw my true face and tried to take my body. I..." The fairy-like person turned his head and ignored Liu Haoyu.
Liu Haoyu suddenly felt angry, he hates that Cao Qingping is delusional about him! !
"I, I managed to escape to meet the young master." Liu Haoyu felt extremely distressed when he heard it.
"He will definitely come to catch me. Tonight I am saying goodbye to the young master...and the young master."
"Who dares!!" Liu Haoyu hurriedly grabbed the beautiful woman's hand, "Who dares to miss you all night!! Then Cao Qingping dares to come, this young master will make him look good!"
According to the momentum of the Cao family being high, in fact, it is really not suitable for the Liu family to act emotionally at this time.However, Manzi has always believed that no one can stay calm forever, it's just that they don't have enough chips.And by myself, why can Liu Haoyu and Cao Qingping confront each other?
Is it because I have a high value, or is this Liu Haoyu too stupid?
"Beauty..." Liu Haoyu has already waved back, and at this time some sperm are on his head.
"Is the young master sincere to me?" Manzi stared fixedly at Liu Haoyu who was making a fuss.
Liu Haoyu did not hesitate: "Of course."
"My leg is hurt, it hurts, it's Cao Qingping."
"What!!" Liu Haoyu punched the table. "Come on, call the doctor."
"Yes." There was an answer from outside.
"Master, I made a wish when I escaped from Cao's mansion. If I can escape and return to the young master, I will abstain from meat and lust for half a year. Young master..." Manzi lowered his head, his beautiful neck was slender and elegant, "Young master, do you want me I broke my oath. Young master, don't you care about me at all?"
No matter how itchy Liu Haoyu was, he couldn't bear to make the beauty sad.
"I can't wait to give you my heart." Although he felt extremely regretful, for Sanyue, he could afford to wait for such stunning beauty.
At the same time, the brightly lit Cao Mansion.
"Catch him! My young master must catch this ignorant pariah!!" Cao Qingping's roar pulled the wound on his neck, causing him to gasp in pain, with hatred in his heart.When you catch him, you must torture him well!Cao Qingping's fists were clenched tightly, and his joints creaked.
☆、Chapter 10
"Then, Mr. Liu is unwilling to give me this face." Cao Qingping sneered, unable to control the deep longing in his wolf-like eyes.
"How do you say this? Isn't Mr. Cao unwilling to give me face, Mr. Cao, don't forget, he is originally from my Liu family. Is it true that Mr. Cao is a gentleman?"
"I hope, Mr. Liu will not regret it one day!" Cao Qingping walked away in a huff.
.................................. ....................................................
In the exquisite room, the incense on the incense burner is surrounded by traces of green smoke.
"Young Master, it's all the Manzi's fault that made the Young Master offend Young Master Cao." The Manzi looked guilty. "
"What does it mean to be offended?" Liu Haoyu's face darkened, "Do I have to be respectful to him!!"
"Master, the Manzi was wrong, please calm down, Master." Manzi lowered his head and couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.
Liu Haoyu quickly comforted: "I'm angry with Cao Qingping, what's wrong with you. Don't worry, with my young master here, I will never let him hurt you." As he spoke, he touched Manzi's body with his palm.
"Master..." Manzi flashed sideways, "Master, Sanyue, can't you wait for me? Can't you wait for me?"
Liu Haoyu coughed lightly, a little embarrassed: "Who made you so charming. Forget it, it doesn't matter if I wait for it in March."
"Manzi thanked the young master for his great kindness."
Thinking about things in the dark will always inexplicably give birth to a kind of despair and self-abandonment.
Manzi passed the white jade cup that he hadn't touched in the past ten years with his finger. The clothes made of good material on his body were close-fitting and comfortable, and there was a vague fragrance in the room.
Such a self will always make him a little contemptuous and disgusting.
He, Han Manzi, has always behaved rightly and never done anything wrong, so he considers himself worthy of the word "gentleman".But what about now?
The eyes that are as bright as stars are full of confusion.
What was the original purpose?To avenge Brother Cheng and protect himself.As weak as he is, he can only come up with this one solution.But is it right to do so?The ancients said: "It is better to be broken jade than to be whole." For him, at present, he is either to be a spoiled pet or to die.Even if it can be delayed beyond March, what about in the future?Does such a life really make sense?
Or dead, once and for all?
But why should I die?Am I doing something wrong?Am I guilty?Why should I die? !Why? !
How long can he last such a life of hypocrisy and obedience?Every time he faced Liu Haoyu and A Qiang's face, God knows how much patience he used to not show disgust.
The slender but slightly rough hands on the white jade cup held it tightly, tightly.
Manzi blamed God more than once, when he was a child suffering from hunger and cold, when his father was killed by the rebel army, and when Brother Cheng died tragically.At the same time, he also thanked God more than once, when Master Wang agreed to listen to him, when his father adopted him, and when he met Brother Cheng.His life is full of misfortunes, but he keeps meeting noble people in his life.It's amazing, right?
But this time, Manzi was full of gratitude.When he was lost and hopeless, the sudden reversal of the battle situation saved him.
Cao Qingping's eldest brother led the army to a disadvantage, and the whole army was wiped out. In a rage, Hou Jing ordered the entire family of Cao's family to be destroyed.Afterwards, Hou Jingyu drove himself to conquer, but fled in a big defeat, was killed by his subordinates, and died tragically outside.Jiankang is at stake.
The civilians cheered, officials at all levels of Hou Jing's court died and fled.
"Quick, pack up the gold and silver, let's leave Jiankang quickly. Pack up quickly, and I'll pick you up later." Liu Haoyu's eyes were bloodshot, and he no longer had the look of the past.
"Okay." Manzi looked at Liu Haoyu who was leaving, and suddenly felt sorry for him.Forget it, let it be like this, a person who fell into the dust from the sky is probably more painful than letting him die.
So now, there is only one thing left for him.
"Second, Second Lord?!" Ah Qiang looked at the man who was slowly walking towards him, his mind went blank. "Don't be nervous, I know you have never dared to face me because you hit me with a stick. But, I am also grateful that you killed that Ah Cheng to vent my hatred." powerful.
"This glass of wine, I respect you, and let us drink away our grievances, how about it?"
That Ah Qiang was already stunned, took the wine in a daze and drank it down. He saw that the smile on the face of the person in front of him became more and more moving.His body was so weak that he couldn't stand still, and sat on the ground.Is it because of the wine, or because of the laugh?He will soon find out.
Manzi didn't stay any longer, turned around and left resolutely. After walking about a hundred meters, he heard the scream of suppressing great pain.For the dead brother Cheng, for the lives of the many people who died in A Qiang's hands, are his hands also covered with blood?But it's worth it!
The Liu residence is in chaos, everyone is in danger, no one, and no one will care about the barbarian who swaggered out from the main entrance.
Later people heard that the once domineering young master of the Liu family was crazy, but no one cared about why he was crazy.People would just spit indifferently: "It deserves it."
Later, Jiankang City, which had settled down, had an extra shoemaker.
☆、Chapter 11
There have been two major events in Jiankang City recently.
Hou Jing's defeat was one thing. Wang Sengbian brought back Hou Jing's body and whipped it in the health city.The people in Jiankang ate up his body, including Hou Jing's wife, Princess Liyang.
Another thing is that there is a cobbler who looks like a heaven and a man.
In Jiankang City, where the rebellion had not been put down for a long time, the people's emotions were extremely high these days.Not only can I eat the meat of Hou Jing, who was once hated but dared not utter a word, but I can also meet such a stunning person in my lifetime.
People used to only hear about characters such as Pan An, Song Yu, and Wei Jie, but they couldn't imagine what kind of appearance they must have, so that they made all the people in the world crazy.But that man, that man who was not as weak as the crown, let everyone who saw his face feel that even if Pan An Songyu was alive, he was nothing more than that.
Regardless of his status, a shoe repairer is really not worthy of his exile-like face.
However, the number of people with broken shoes in Jiankang City increased by nearly a hundred times in an instant, and it was even necessary to make an appointment one day in advance for shoe repairs.
Manzi looked helplessly at the long line outside the shoe repair shop, rubbed his sore shoulders, and planned to hire a buddy another day.
In fact, at the beginning, Manzi considered covering up his true face as he did when Brother Cheng was alive.Later he changed his mind.A person's life is really not long, so why bother to wrong yourself because of too many worries.He didn't do anything shady, and he didn't break the law. Why did he have to cover it up? That's what a man does.
In the past six months, nothing happened.However, there is a saying that "the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows". No one else knows it, only you know it, and you can take it into your bag.However, if you know more than one person, you will consider a lot and worry a lot.
Just checks and balances.
There was a bully who molested the barbarian and ended up with a finger cut off.Those who were present at that time still have lingering fears when they mentioned it.It never occurred to me that the man who was laughing so hard one moment ago would burst into laughter the next second.
