...Dari Achi? !

Zhuo Yue was startled.

The name of this tribe is not unfamiliar to him, it can even be called familiar.

After the catastrophe at Yulin Pass in the previous life, Lou Changfeng and Lou Wanli regrouped, and finally drove the Zhagan people out of the pass in one fell swoop the following year.As a result, the Zhagan people's vitality was seriously injured, and they were unable to go south.Seeing that the Central Plains is now strong and strong, many other tribes on the grassland have the idea of ​​clinging to the Central Plains again, and it is this Dari Achi who is the first to ask for tribute.

If the old overlords of the grassland were the Zhagan and Tumozhong, then this Dari'achi is a newly rising force.On the grassland with many tribes and clans, Dari'achi is one of the few tribes that can compete with the old overlords Zhagan and Tumozhong.

After Zhagan's defeat, the trend gradually weakened. Dari'achi probably wanted to take advantage of the east wind in the Central Plains to climb to the throne of the grassland in one fell swoop.

Zhuo Yue remembered that after much deliberation and debate, the capital approved Dari'achi's request for tribute, and decided to marry Princess Jiazhao of the current dynasty to the son of Dari'achi King.

It's just that he died in battle in the quicksand nest soon, and he didn't see the follow-up of this marriage.

"Are you from Dari Achi?" Zhuo Yue was very surprised, "Then, that Dalen Yaer—"

"His real name is not Dalen Yaer." Li Changxing said in a low voice, "Do you still remember Brother Zhuo, as I said before, 'Daleng Yaer' means 'overlord of the grassland', which is a nickname Not his own life... His real name is Wu Ri Geng Tase."

Zhuo Yue recited the name silently: "Then the brother Wang he was talking about is——"

"It's King Dari'achi." Li Changxing took a deep breath, "He is the younger brother of King Dari'achi. And I am the third son born to King Dari'achi and the singer of the Central Plains."

"I'm rough." Zhuo Yue felt dizzy for a while.

He picked it up casually, and actually picked up a prince back?

... No, it seems that this prince is rushing to go home with him.

"Would it be you who wants to marry the princess?" Zhuo Yue asked suspiciously, "You didn't want to marry a woman you didn't love, so you ran away?"

If that's the case, it's too fucking corny.

Li Changxing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth: "How come? The elder brother is the one who wants to marry the princess. I'm only the third son, and the son of a lowly singer. How can I be qualified to marry a noble princess?"

Zhuo Yue irritatedly said, "Okay, the next question. What happened to you and your mother? Why did you escape? Da Leng——no, why did Wu Ri Geng Dase arrest you?"

Li Changxing frowned slightly, as if he was considering how to answer.After a while, he pulled down one side of his clothes, exposing his left shoulder.

He whispered: "Do you still remember the word 'slave' Brother Zhuo?"

The imprint of the word "slave".How could Zhuo Yue not remember?It was precisely because of this that he believed Li Changxing's lie about escaped slaves in the first place.

Li Changxing twitched the corner of his mouth: "My mother branded this word on me. When I was two years old."

"Your mother?" Zhuo Yue's eyelids twitched.

A two-year-old child is still a biological child, this woman really let go.

"My mother is a singer from the Central Plains, but she gave birth to the son of the noble Dari Achi King, which attracted the envy of many people. In order not to attract people's envy, she degraded her status and made me a slave with her own hands. brand." Li Changxing chuckled, "Use this to remind everyone that I am just a slave, a slave who can be beaten, scolded and reprimanded by everyone."

Zhuo Yue could not help but shudder for a while.

In the past, Li Changxing had only mentioned a few words about his mother.In Zhuo Yue's imagination, this woman can sing the songs of the Central Plains and drag her young son slowly in the dark night, so she must be a gentle but tough woman.

But I didn't expect this person to have such cruel methods.

He couldn't help asking: "So you hated her because of this and escaped back?"

"If she did it to protect me and to live a stable life, I wouldn't hate her." Li Changxing said in a low voice, "but she did it for her own glory and wealth. All her works are for the sake of helping her one day. I sit on the throne of Dariachi."

"When she gave birth to me, King Dari'achi already had an eldest son and a second son. The eldest son was born by his first wife and was sick and weak since he was a child. The mother of the second son was from another tribe, and her identity was not simple.

"In the previous life, after she gave birth to me, she formed an alliance with Wu Ri Geng Tase. She wanted to support me to the throne, and Wu Ri Geng Tase wanted to check and balance the power of the second son of the king. The two had their own plans, so they hit it off. In Wu Ri Geng Da With the help of Ye Lai, she poisoned the second son of Wang into a fool."

Li Changxing paused for a moment, then suddenly sneered: "But she is so stupid, how could Wu Rigendase really want to support me? He killed someone with a knife, and after removing the second son with my mother's hand, he could support the eldest son of the king. But my mother has been blinded by power, and the whole person has gone crazy. After she poisoned and fooled the second son, in the 29th year of Hongwu, the concubine gave birth to the fourth son, and she designed to let the wolf take away the fourth son. She is a crazy woman In the eyes of Uri Gendase, I was already an abandoned child, without his protection, everything my mother did would have been exposed. After the incident, I was beheaded as a traitor."

Zhuo Yue shuddered and couldn't say anything.

"I've had enough! Being controlled by her and being her pawn to seize power!" Li Changxing's eyes turned red, and his hands clenched his knees tightly. "If I die like this, I don't have any regrets. But she still To send me into reincarnation, one time is not enough, but I have to do it again...Brother Zhuo, do you know what was the first sentence she said to me after I was reborn?"

Zhuo Yue looked at him speechlessly.

"...she said. This time, I will definitely succeed."

A chill ran up Zhuo Yue's spine.

"I can only run away..." Li Changxing closed his eyes and said, "I don't want to go through those nightmares again. I don't want to be beaten on the ground by the children of the same race, put mud in my mouth, scream I'm a pig and a dog, but at night I still hear her talking about those Spring and Autumn dreams of revenge and seizing the throne in my ear."

I would rather die in a foreign land than repeat the same mistakes.

Zhuo Yue's mind was shocked, and when he came to his senses, he realized that his hands were trembling slightly.

"So..." he said with difficulty, "This time Wu Ri Geng Dase went south to find you?"

"I ran away, and she lost all her bargaining chips. But a woman can't leave the tribe, she should have formed an alliance with Wu Rigendase again." Li Changxing whispered, "I should have told all about the rebirth He, in exchange for this, asked him to catch me back... But I don't understand, at this time, the second son of the prince should have been poisoned, and my mother and I should be abandoned in his eyes. Why does he still try to do everything possible? Come here and take me back."

Zhuo Yue listened in a daze, speechless for a while.

Li Changxing looked at him, strongly restraining the urge to jump up and hug him, and said with difficulty: "Now you know everything... I dare not ask for your forgiveness, after all, I concealed it first .It's just that you can't drive me away. I tried my best to escape, and I have nowhere to go. If I can't stay by your side, I'd rather die..."

He was born in the dark and raised in the mud.Before meeting Zhuo Yue, he was a lowly bastard, a slave, a pig and a dog, and a chess piece... Surrounded by lies and power conspiracy, he lived rough and rough to survive.

He is used to wearing a smiling mask, used to cheating and concealing, used to hiding all his sincerity under the beautiful skin.

Until I met Zhuo Yue.

If he could choose, he also hoped that he would be like Zhuo Yue, an upright and passionate person.He was attracted by the radiance of this person, and couldn't help approaching him, but he didn't expect that the darkness on his body would hurt the person he loved the most.

"Do you know what you're asking for?" Zhuo Yue took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "You're asking me to give up Yulin Pass. For you who once deceived me and are a foreigner, give up the lives of 2 people, give up A happy and peaceful future for all!"

He didn't dare to think deeply.

Father Lou, who went into battle in his eighties, would distribute good wine to his soldiers; Lou Changfeng, who is still bright and sunny, with a happy family; Lou Chuiyun, a young boy who seems to have endless curiosity about the world; The child, Adanzhu who is about to reunite with him...

As long as the Yulinguan battle is won, these people will be happy.The veteran's life will not end in dismay, the boy will not die young, countless lives will not have to die, the family will be reunited, and peace will come.

As long as he sends Li Changxing away.

But... But this is Li Changxing.

The child had escaped for two lifetimes before escaping the quagmire-like hometown.Although he is vicious, cruel, and has many concealments, but...he is Li Changxing.

Zhuo Yue felt that it was difficult to breathe, as if a huge stone was pressed against his chest.He just wanted to run out, yelling and venting his dissatisfaction with God.

Why!He has never done anything wrong, and he has acted openly and aboveboard in his two lives, why must he be involved in these right and wrong, why must he be made to make such a difficult choice!

Why was Li Changxing the one who fell in love with him.

"You don't have to choose!" Li Changxing said anxiously with red eyes, "As long as you don't send me away, I will protect you even if I die. No matter what Wu Ri Geng Tase wants to do, I won't be able to hurt you—" "

"What's the use of you just protecting me! What about the others, what about the [-] troops!" Zhuo Yue felt more and more frightened, "How can I trust you... You never take the lives of others into consideration."

A sad look flashed across Li Changxing's beautiful pupils. He took a deep breath, controlled his trembling voice and said in a low voice, "I don't care. But what you care about, I will try my best to protect it for you. "

Zhuo Yue stared at him blankly.

Li Changxing didn't lie.When the earth was ramming the small city, he once lost his temper with Li Changxing because of this matter. Later, when he came to Danji city, in order to protect the people in the city and him, Li Changxing was willing to risk his life to burn the granary.

Li Changxing was right, as long as he cared about things, he took them to heart.

...Damn it!Why did I remember the past again.

He tried desperately to clear his mind and make a decision.But the past and memories are like spider silk in the wind, lightly wrapping around his thoughts, lingering, unreasonable and unclear.

Seeing him staring blankly into the distance without saying a word, Li Changxing slowly stood up and walked to his side.

"Go back with me."

Li Changxing looked down at Zhuo Yue.When the two met more than a year ago, this man still looked so tall, as if he could stand upright.But now, he can easily hold Zhuo Yue in his arms.

"Come back with me, trust me. Whether it's you or what you want to protect, I will guard it."

Zhuo Yue shook his head, closed his eyes and said, "...Actually, no matter what I say, you won't leave, right?"

Li Changxing was startled and speechless.

"Then what more to say." Zhuo Yue turned around and climbed onto the horse, "Let's go."

The two rode back to the tent in silence, without speaking a word.

The grain transport officers who dared to exchange grain and grass were caught, and these people dared to collude with the prairie people. Everyone was indignant and thankful—fortunately, this matter was discovered in time, otherwise the war would be imminent, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Zhuo Yue made another great contribution.Everyone is guessing that if the battle of Yulin Pass wins this time, Lou's father will definitely help Zhuo Yue in front of the emperor to ask for a reward when he returns to Beijing.

The future can be said to be a bright future.

Therefore, Lou's father took time out to meet Zhuo Yue.

Perhaps it was a cool autumn season, and Lou's father was a little bit cold. At this time, he didn't wear any battle armor, only a thin jacket, and his gray hair was tied on top of his head.The fierce and majestic aura on his body has faded a bit, and he looks a bit like an ordinary old man sitting in the hall and having fun with his children and grandchildren.

"I heard from Chang Feng that you reminded him before to pay attention to the quality of the grain and grass sent from the capital. He didn't take it seriously at the time, but now it seems that he listened to your advice." Father Lou looked at Zhuo Yue and smiled warmly. Said, "Changfeng is not very old, and there is still a lot to grow up. Fortunately, you, wise and brave generals, are by your side."

Zhuo Yue's complexion was a little pale, and he forced a smile.

Xu is of a good nature today, Father Lou specifically said a few more words: "From the first time I saw you, I knew that you are talented and loyal. During the days of training beside Changfeng, your performance is even better. Outstanding. After this battle is over, when I return to Beijing, I will ask the emperor to reward you, and whatever you want—"

Zhuo Yue felt more and more uncomfortable hearing this, and couldn't help interrupting him: "General Lou, I'm not someone who is iron-blooded and loyal."

He is also selfish.

He is too selfish.

He fantasizes about fulfilling his duty, guarding his family and defending the country, but also wants to secretly hide his lover who has a complicated life experience.

As the saying goes, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both.These two great righteousness can't have both, not to mention the little love in his heart?

Thinking about Lou's father who gave up the comfort of thousands of years, and looking at the disciples of Lou's family who gave up the prosperity of the capital, Zhuo Yue felt so guilty that his internal organs ached.

Stop praising me...I can't stand it.

Lou Changfeng, who was standing beside him, thought he was humiliating himself, and said with a smile: "Zhuo Yue is too polite, you deserve it. Your prestige in the army has long been able to take on a high position, but now in wartime, you have to be promoted. The paperwork is cumbersome and difficult to operate, otherwise it would have been up to the father to decide."

Lou Wanli seldom talked, just nodded frequently when Lou Changfeng spoke.

Zhuo Yue squeezed the clothes on his knees tightly, feeling so depressed that he almost spit out blood: "General Lou, I'm really not being polite... Please, don't expect too much from me. I'm also a selfish person Man, when the army rations in Cangheng were in an emergency, I secretly went to Danzhou to buy military rations—"

"Oh that thing." Lou Changfeng said with a smile, "I knew about it a long time ago."

Zhuo Yue was stunned.

"You haven't shown up for more than ten days because of hemorrhoids, normal people would be suspicious, right?" Lou Changfeng smiled and said, "I originally wanted to punish you for this, but then you stood up again during the night attack. Merit. Merit and demerit balance out, so I didn’t mention it to you.”

Zhuo Yuewan didn't expect that he knew it long ago, so he opened his mouth in a daze, but didn't say a word.

The sons of the Lou family saw that his expression was different, and they looked at each other.Lou's father Ruili looked around Zhuo Yue with his eyes, and suddenly smiled.

"Vice General Zhuo, who can be perfect?" He said softly, "As a soldier, being loyal and brave is enough. Sometimes being too harsh on yourself will make you shrink back in front of the responsibilities you should bear. "

Zhuo Yue's lips twitched, but he didn't make a sound.

"Some things have no answer to fantasy. If young people want to grow up, they still have to take steps forward." Father Lou said with a smile, "I decided to launch a general attack on Yulin Pass on October [-]. After this big battle , maybe you will have the answer."

October twenty-three.

It was also this day in the previous life.A day like a nightmare.

This time, is it a repeated nightmare, or a relief?

Zhuo Yue kowtowed slowly amidst his chaotic thoughts.

The author has something to say: I feel sorry for Dazhuo, and I also feel sorry for Xiao Li. The most painful time in the whole book is coming...

In the book "Broken Sleeves", Dalen Yaer was the one who went to the capital to ask for a marriage, because he had a quarrel with Master Shen and Xie San.My real name is Urigendase, the name is too long, it seems that the cuties don’t remember hahh, but it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t affect~~
