Cangyun [Sword Net Three]
Chapter 75
Linzi Prince's Mansion, Wu Lang never calculated that he would return to this place one day.
He refused to ride with Situ Jing, recruited his own horse, and mixed into the team wrapped in a black cloak.He cooperated very well and had no intention of taking the opportunity to escape.Situ Jing was almost flattered.But he was still sent to a special darkroom.
It is not an exaggeration to describe the darkroom like an iron cage with iron walls.
Wu Lang just went in without any objection.He sat quietly on a chair in the middle of the dark room, the candlelight cast a high light on his long hair.Half of the side face is hidden in the darkness, and the other half is warm and hazy in the ambiguous candlelight.
Situ Jing retreated from the crowd, stood not far away and looked at him, neither speaking nor moving, as if in the blink of an eye, the people in the room would disappear.
Wu Lang snorted coldly: "My lord, the night is dark and dew heavy, you should go back, it will be the same when you come back tomorrow, and I won't run away."
Situ Jing said, "Are you really him?"
Wu Lang said, "No, I'm not him."
But Situ Jing said: "You are him, Gu should have recognized you from the very beginning."
Wu Lang wanted to laugh instead: "Yan Lang is dead, is it so difficult to accept the fact?"
Situ Jing said: "It took me many years to accept it alone, but now, it is no longer necessary."
Wu Lang turned his head: "I don't want to argue with you. If you want to lock me up, that's fine, but don't expect me to say anything. Even if you lock me up forever, I'm still Wu Lang."
Situ Jing said: "It doesn't matter if Yan Lang is still Wu Lang. You are you, so why stick to your name and identity."
Wu Lang said, "As you like."
Situ Jing asked him, "Did you have fun outside all these years?"
Wu Lang said: "If you compare it with when you lived in the Linzi Palace, then you are naturally happy."
Situ Jing said, "You like him very much?"
Wu Lang soon realized who Situ Jing was talking about, he smiled: "I love him very much."
"why?"
"You don't understand. Only a fool asks why a person falls in love with another person. Why don't you ask yourself why you like Liu Jinghong?"
Situ Jing fell silent, and the conversation ended unhappy.
Wu Lang sneered, Situ Jing really thought he was a lover?The male favorites of the entire Linzi Prince's Mansion told Wu Lang with blood and tears not to have a heart-to-heart talk with such a man, never.
Fortunately, although the relationship between the two is very stiff, there is nothing to say about Situ Jing's treatment of him.
There is no day and night in the dark room, only three meals a day and the punctual meeting time with Situ Jing.
He was really idle, he rushed back to Nanlin from Yongning, and he seemed to have no intention of going back.
Situ Jing gave him many books to read, as if he really wanted to lock him up in this dark prison for the rest of his life.His body is recovering more and more, but he still can't return to his peak condition.When alone, he passed the time doing circles and push-ups in the dark room.
Situ Jing told him that the capital of Beirong was destroyed, and a large number of members of the royal family became prisoners. They were beheaded in public at Caishikou in the capital as an example.Yang Jichuan's reputation was at the peak of his power, but the emperor beheaded the imperial envoy because he left the station to serve the government without permission, and asked him to relinquish his military power, hand over the tiger talisman, and return to Beijing to plead guilty.The imperial decree was passed on, but there was no news, and the emperor was furious.Yang Zhao was asked to personally lead troops to Beirong to arrest the rebellious minister.Yang Zhao's army marched to the border of Muzhou, Yongzhou, and was banned by the Muzhou of Yongzhou on the grounds of closing the state.The heart of Sima Zhao, the governor of Yongzhou, is well known to all passers-by.
Wu Lang squinted his eyes, continued flipping through the small talk book in his hand, and said at the same time: "Isn't this what you want? Anyway, the Yang family will be destroyed sooner or later, let the emperor do this, and you will be clean in the future." .I don’t need you to tell me how stupid the emperor is.”
"You're not worried about him?"
"There is nothing to worry about, let's go to war at worst. The north of the Southern Forest is collectively independent, and Yang Jichuan embraces the army to become king on his own. What do you think of the result?" Wu Lang curled his lips: "The difficulty factor of the Southern Expedition and the Northern Expedition is huge. It's different, you don't know this. Don't think that Yang Jichuan will be soft-hearted if Yang Zhao is there."
"Your Northern Expedition, the enemy is the Bei Rong, the great enemy of the family and the country. If you are hostile to the big merchants, can the soldiers use their swords to fight against their former compatriots? Can they be ruthless? If they betray their own country, they are rebels. "
"This is ridiculous. It was the big merchants who betrayed them, not them. When the army was conquering Beirong and was struggling between life and death, the emperor was figuring out how to get them to plead guilty and hand over their power. What's more, what's more, the soldiers are loyal to the commander, not the lord. If the emperor comes to the front line in person, you can see if he can mobilize a soldier of our Xuanjia army. If Yang Jichuan stands on his own, they will You are a citizen of the new country, how dare you call your compatriots with the noble merchants."
Only then did Situ Jing shake his head: "If you and Yang Jichuan hadn't acted so forcefully, the emperor would definitely not be on guard against you."
Wu Lang laughed loudly: "If the emperor really has the power to rise up to the top of the dragon and change the hearts of all nations, I will bow my head to be a small person and be willing to be a ladder for others. It's a pity, but I'm just a mere mortal. You hide your strengths and bide your time, isn't it for the sake of becoming a great treasure one day."
"You have always been sharp-tongued and arrogant. Brother Huang's resignation is only a matter of time. Gu will be the master of this big business sooner or later. Don't Gu have the qualifications to let you stay?"
"If you become the emperor, you may be the blessing of thousands of people in this big merchant. But it's not my relationship with Yang Jichuan. Leaving aside the personal relationship, just as a candidate for investing in the throne, he and I also choose to stand by your side. But I'm tired, I don't want to play these intrigue games anymore. I don't want to hang around in front of you all the time, and I don't want to spend my whole life on endless battlefields. I'm worried that Yang Jichuan will die, somewhere I can't see, even There is no body left. I am also afraid that he will be plotted and tortured by you, and I can only look for him like a headless chicken. I understand that once you see me, I will be in trouble, such as now. You are This kind of person, Situ Jing."
"You want to anger Gu."
"Then are you angry?"
"Yang Jichuan is not on the front line of Beirong, where do you think he will appear?"
"What do you mean?"
"You're so smart, you can definitely guess a rough idea."
Wu Lang frowned deeply. The bait on Situ Jing's hook was very fragrant and very large.He suddenly remembered the day he left the city, in the carriage, his heart throbbed for a moment.He always thought it was just an illusion.
Chuan'er, have you come to Nanlin?
Wu Lang took a deep breath, not knowing whether to be happy or worried.
Nanlin is Situ Jing's lair, Yang Jichuan must have come here in such a secret, he must have very few guards, and the armor must not be worn, otherwise it would be too ostentatious.Perhaps Yang Jichuan brought Chang Shan with him, and with Chang Shan's intelligence network, he would at least have some clues.But if they face Situ Jing head-on, the chances of winning are slim.
But the iron cage was so strong that he couldn't find any way out.
Wu Lang couldn't sleep all night, thinking about many things.A man can bend and stretch, maybe he can give in to Situ Jing a little bit so that he can get out of this iron cage, but that guy is not so easy to deceive.
I thought about it all night and had a headache all night.
In the morning, meals were brought in on time.It was not the dumb servant who delivered the food.The man put the food on the table, tore off the skin of his face, revealing a white and beautiful face.
Wu Lang held his breath and frowned, asking, "Mr. Henglian?"
Heng Lianjun took Wu Lang's eyes carefully and sighed, "It really is you."
"As expected? What as expected."
"The prince doesn't come back from far away, and lives in seclusion every day. Countless people are heartbroken looking forward to it. After many inquiries, it turns out that the prince is hiding in a golden house again."
Wu Lang smiled coolly: "If this is a golden house, I wouldn't be considered a coquettish person." After speaking, he sat down boldly and picked up his chopsticks to eat.
Heng Lianjun said: "Since you are dead, why did you come back?"
"You think I'd like to come back?"
"You eat well and sleep well. Is this the so-called unwillingness to come back?"
"The body is my own, so why should I treat myself badly? Situ Jing imprisoned me, so do I have to feel sorry for myself and go on a hunger strike?"
Mr. Heng Lian was a little dumb, and said after a while: "You were not like this before..."
"Isn't it so harsh and ugly to speak? Because I don't have to be Yan Lang, so I don't bother to act anymore."
Mr. Heng Lian sat silently in front of Wu Lang, watching him eat porridge and vegetables in a leisurely manner, it was really not like the leisurely demeanor that a prisoner should have.
"It's been nine years since you left, but time hasn't neglected you at all."
"My General Langqi also has a good face, how can I age before him."
"The prince has always missed you, and he regrets it."
"He just missed the relationship that he couldn't get. You still want to be a lobbyist like you did back then? You couldn't convince me back then, let alone now."
"Hmph, I know. You are very assertive and scheming. You have been hiding it all the time."
"Not as good as Situ Jing."
"Why are you so stubborn, isn't it yourself who suffers in the end?"
"You don't understand." Wu Lang picked up his chopsticks, dipped them in porridge, and wrote [Help me escape] stroke by stroke on the table.
"why?"
Wu Lang smiled: "If I give in, I will no longer be me." [Because I have many opportunities to kill him]
"You are angry with the prince, why bother?"
Wu Lang said: "It's not about anger, I have a proud heart, and it's hard to be a man." [Why bother?Situ Jing is going to be the emperor sooner or later, do you want me to enter the palace as a concubine?Such a shameful humiliation, killing him is not enough to appease his anger! 】
"You are just angry, calm down and think about it."
Wu Lang raised his eyebrows: "Huh, it's easy to leave." [Think carefully, wait for the good news]
Seeing the back of Mr. Henglian leaving, Wu Lang regained his composure.In such a secret place, even Mr. Henglian couldn't easily enter in disguise.Most of this matter was deliberately done by Situ Jing, or even arranged by Situ Jing himself.
It doesn't matter, what he likes to do the most is to instigate rebellion, and when he climbs up, the enemy's three thousand soldiers will surrender!
He refused to ride with Situ Jing, recruited his own horse, and mixed into the team wrapped in a black cloak.He cooperated very well and had no intention of taking the opportunity to escape.Situ Jing was almost flattered.But he was still sent to a special darkroom.
It is not an exaggeration to describe the darkroom like an iron cage with iron walls.
