She shivered from the cold, thinking that it was so dangerous just now. In the past, he was not happy that the sword pointed at the barren grass and blood flowed like a river. This time, she was lucky to be able to come out of the room with her beard and tail intact.
"Forget it, I'd better go back and think about tomorrow. Brother Wei, you should go and rest too."
Wei Yao glanced at the room and said to Zheng Quchi, "Ah Qing, I'll leave it to you for the general's affairs tomorrow."
When Zheng Quchi saw him taking care of the orphan in such a serious manner, he suddenly felt the hardship and danger he would face tomorrow.
This was her first time participating in such a spy mission. They thought that since she had been working for the Mo family for many years, she must be familiar with this kind of thing.
That's right, if she really is "Sang Xuanqing", but in fact, she, Zheng Quchi, has no experience at all. Since time traveling, she has passively accepted everything from assassinations, information transmission and secret communication.
Therefore, she is somewhat nervous about what will happen tomorrow: "I can only say that I will do my best within my ability."
Wei Yao noticed that she was worried and scared, but she had to do this. He patted her shoulder apologetically: "Ah Qing, believe in the general. As long as you are willing to believe in him, your action will be successful."
Science students always pay attention to logic, trust and success don't seem to be equated.
She couldn't help but ask: "Why are you, Wang Zebang and the others so devoted to General Yuwen? He...he..."
There are some words that she can't say easily.
He asked her to trust the general, which meant that in his mind, Yu Wensheng was a person worthy of trust and trust.
But have they never thought that if Yu Wensheng is such a cold and ruthless person who kills to stop killing, they are not worried that one day his temper will become more extreme and sinister. In order to achieve his goals or when he encounters a need to make a choice, he will Abandon and sacrifice them without hesitation?
As if he saw something in her eyes, Wei Yao smiled, suddenly looked at the sky, and said, "Madam, it's not dark yet, can you walk around with me?"
"ah?"
"Don't you want to hear what happened between me and the general? I'll tell you slowly."
The two were walking in the green bamboo forest, with leaves falling around their shoulders. The sunset was dotted on the mountaintops shrouded in dusk, and a breeze blew in front of them, which was just right cool.
Wei Yao's expression slowly smiled, and he said: "The general and I were the first to know each other. I was twelve years old at that time, and the general was only seven years old..."
When he was a child, Yu Wensheng was very good-looking. He was so good-looking that he didn't look like a normal healthy child. Instead, he looked like a broken glass statue that had to be held up with both hands and looked up at.
Under the sunlight, his skin was so white that it was transparent, his hair was dark blue, his pupils were lighter, his lips were also lighter, and his thick and long eyelashes were amber. When he sat under the white cherry tree and the fallen cherry blossoms were scattered around, He looked like an unearthly cherry blossom elf in the beautiful snow-white scenery.
That was the first time Wei Yao saw him.
His father was a subordinate of Yu Wenhao. He came with his father. When he climbed over the courtyard wall due to mischief, he accidentally fell down. When he got up, he saw him.
The two of them got to know each other secretly without telling the adults.
Yu Wensheng is seven years old, but he has never taken a step out of Dream Garden.
He was imprisoned in this courtyard by his father for seven years, during which time he was not allowed to have contact with anyone.
So even though he is seven years old, he can't even speak a complete sentence.
He stayed in darkness almost day and night throughout the year. Only on his mother's birthday would he be released by Yu Wenhao to see the light of day.
He sat quietly and indifferently under the tree, motionless. At that time, Wei Yao really thought he was not alive.
Because his skin was frighteningly pale, just like white cherry petals, dead, cold and lifeless.
After Zheng Quchi heard this, he couldn't imagine how cruel he must be to treat his own child like this.
"His father, why did you imprison an infant in a small place for seven years, so that he could not see the sun and the moon, and was not accustomed to ordinary things?" Zheng Quchi asked in a trembling voice.
Wei Yao's mandible tensed, and after a long time to calm down, he said: "
The general had to come and talk to his wife in person about this matter, and Wei Yao did not dare to overstep. "
Zheng Quchi was indeed shocked, but she was sympathetic, but she didn't understand: "Brother Wei, is this what you want to tell me?"
Wei Yao smiled bitterly: "No, you ask me, why would I follow the general and be devoted to him? It's actually very simple. At first, my father followed his father, and later, I naturally followed him."
"As for me, I am willing to be loyal and unchanging, because although the general does not understand emotions, has no regard for life, and is cruel to all unimportant things, he has never abandoned us. Over the years, we have lived and died for the general, but he has also He has saved us countless times..."
He looked at her with deep eyes, his breath caught in his throat, and he let out a long sigh, "Madam, General, he did hurt you, but he... also saved you."
Zheng Quchi was stunned.
She suddenly remembered that day when she was chased by a group of tall and fierce barbarian soldiers. She ran away and rolled down the slope in pain. After she was caught, they surrounded her, toyed with her, laughed at her, whipped her, and tortured her like Like a dead dog.
She had never been one to die bravely. Thinking back to her feelings at that time, she felt frightened, sad, and desperate. She longed to be redeemed.
Later, at the moment when she thought she was going to die, a man appeared miraculously like a god and saved her from that miserable situation.
That person is Yu Wensheng.
Also, when she was almost trampled and injured by fleeing people in Fenggu Shacheng in the Julu Kingdom, he appeared in time to save her from danger.
It was him who pushed her into hell.
But it was he who led a large force into Julu and brought her back to Ye State, so that she would not be wandering around, her relatives would be separated, and she would avoid other countries.
She has not forgotten these.
Precisely because she has not forgotten him, she has always been angry and resentful towards him, but unable to get close to him. The contradiction is so complicated that it even bothers her.
Wei Yao stopped and faced her. He said seriously: "Madam, I know that you and the general in the eyes of the world can only watch and dare not approach. You think he has a cruel and cruel temperament, and you are afraid that if he comes even slightly closer, he will I was hurt by his arbitrary judgment."
Zheng Quchi was speechless for a moment, that was indeed what she thought.
Naturally, a person with a defective character cannot be emotionally stable. He can be warm and drizzle at times, and violent storms in the blink of an eye. In addition, he is in a high position and can take life and death at his own risk. Who dares to comment?
"But the general is not unteachable, madam." He told her about the general's past, just to tell her: "The general has been treated harshly since birth. He has never been loved, and naturally he does not know how to pity the world. , but you are now the general’s only relative and lover. I don’t know who else can make the general better except you.”
He lacked all the responsibilities of his father and the teachings of his mother. He survived and grew like a weed on his own.
Zheng Quchi couldn't bear Wei Yao's pleading red eyes. The next second, she lowered her eyes but shook her head: "Don't be ridiculous, I, I have a hard time even for myself. I can't do it at all."
"No, you can do it." Wei Yao said firmly: "The general has never spared any assassin's life, but when you said stop before, he stopped his murderous intention. This has never happened before. The thing is, when you were in Fenggu Sand City, the general gave up the plan to burn down Fenggu Sand City for you, and did not kill all the remaining harm in it, just because he was afraid that you would see blood, and he was even more afraid of him."
He finished speaking in one breath, his chest rose and fell for a moment, and then he said the last sentence: "Madam, the general is changing, forbearing, and restraining his nature for you, and he is also learning how others treat their wives with tenderness. These... you are really Do you understand?"
Zheng Quchi is like a wooden carved pestle standing there. Although the person is not moving, his heart is like the falling bamboo leaves. When the wind blows, it becomes messy and rises and falls, refusing to calm down.
After a long while, she forced out a forced smile. She was always eloquent, but what she wanted to say now was a bit confusing.
"Brother Wei, this is my first time talking about a partner and getting married, but right away I picked someone as scary and difficult as Yu Wensheng... I was really, really panicked. I didn't know if I could and
He became a real couple, and I don’t know how I should accept such a husband. I am just an ordinary person..."
An extremely ordinary person.
She has no bitter and grudge-filled past, and no secret family history. She has an ordinary personality and is an ordinary person in modern times who likes woodcraft and has read some books.
Her outlook on life will not be easily assimilated and changed by this world, and her outlook on life will not just follow the five senses. She has tried, but she can't do it.
But she is too small. In a Fu County, she cannot be free as she pleases. Among the millions of people in the Seven Kingdoms, she is even more invisible.
Therefore, she has never arrogantly believed that she can use her power to change the world and the people who live in it just because she is a time traveler.
Everyone has his or her own experience in life. Just because she is too small, she just wants to stick to her heart and keep her own three acres of land. Otherwise, she is really powerless. .
When Wei Yao heard her talking about him like this, his heart tightened, and he could only say dryly: "Brother Wei is making things difficult for you. I know that you are active and cheerful, enthusiastic and joyful, and your world is always sunny, so You don't like the dark things that grow in the cracks."
Zheng Quchi wanted to say that she was not as good as he said, but Wei Yao continued: "But you know, dark things also like warm light. They keep growing outwards, just to crawl out of that place." Shadow, walk to where the sun shines?"
But she is not sunshine.
She is just Zheng Quchi, a troubled person who is trying to save herself and climb out of the swamp under her feet.
Zheng Quchi took a deep breath and said, "I don't want to think about this right now. Brother Wei, it's getting late. I have to go to Thousand Tree Hall to participate in the finals tomorrow, so I'll go back first."
Wei Yao has said too many things that he shouldn't have said today. He knew that he was clearly trying to embarrass her, but he still said that, no one else could do this but her, not to mention what the general was going to do next...
He was worried that if there were no restraints in the general's heart and he had no taboos, once he completely lost control, he could not imagine what kind of situation Ye country would be in.
No matter how deep the anxiety in his heart was, he couldn't act too hastily. He responded: "Okay."
Zheng Quchi nodded goodbye to him, turned around and left the bamboo forest. After she left, Fu Rong and Wang Zebang, who had been here for a while, appeared and walked out.
They walked to Wei Yao's side.
"It's hard for you to say so many heartfelt words, but my wife doesn't seem to have listened." Fu Rong said helplessly, "Everyone has his own ambitions. Who is a good daughter who doesn't like a pure and gentle husband?"
Before, he had always felt that Zheng Quchi was not worthy of their general. How could a woman with nothing to offer be as beneficial as marrying Princess Sheng'an.
But later he discovered that she had a pleasant temperament, was kind and interesting, and was not only intelligent but also extremely skilled. In addition, after listening to her words and assuming her position, he couldn't help Wang Po selling herself.
No matter how good the general is, but in terms of conscience, he is not a good son-in-law, he is a heartless person.
"That's right, if she is still unwilling, what if she forces herself to do so? She is not worthy of the general. The general should be surrounded by powerful women, princesses and princesses." Wang Zebang said coldly.
Wei Yao squinted his eyes and saw that Wang Zebang was angry at Zheng Quchi's lack of knowledge, so he reminded them a little: "Do you still remember that Madam was misunderstood by the general and was knocked down from the sky with one palm, and then she was kidnapped by Mo Ye and taken to the Julu Kingdom? What was the general like during that time?"
The two of them could not help but feel chills as they recalled the past as he told them.
Wei Yao asked again: "And what has the general been like during this period of time?"
"..." The two of them were silent at the same time.
Wei Yao crossed his arms and sneered: "So, you'd better pray that Madam will stop thinking about separation, otherwise we will probably have to live a life of walking on thin ice every day in the future."
"No!" Fu Rong was the first to be unable to bear it. The image of him being tortured by the general was still vivid in his mind. No matter what, he didn't want to live that kind of life!
Wang Zebang's face is stiff
Hard, he said softly: "...I would rather demolish a temple than ruin a marriage. I can still get through it with persuasion."
Wei Yao rolled his eyes at them both.
"Anyway, I've already tried to persuade you. The rest depends on your ability. If you can persuade me, everyone will be better off. If you can't persuade me, nothing will be better for you."
Fu Rong and Wang Zebang's faces suddenly turned dark and then white.
——
When the sky was slightly bright, Zheng Quchi opened her eyes. Her eyelids were a little swollen, and the dream of the whole night made her restless for a moment.
She sat up and was in a daze for a while. Thinking of the content of the dream, she shrugged the tip of her nose and whispered: "Yu Wensheng..." You piece of shit.
"You called me?"
A bright and cheerful sound like wind chimes from the side interrupted her, like a gentle breeze, startling Zheng Quchi.
She turned her head quickly and saw Yu Wensheng sitting by the window lattice.
Today, he changed into a pair of immortal white clothes.
The layers of robes accentuated the red marks on his body, his hair was tied up with a belt, and his eyes were covered with a white gauze. His superior facial features made him look like a fairy who had become an immortal through cultivation, without the sinister look. Instead, he was dressed in sparse branches and jade, as white as auspicious snow.
