He Lian did not speak immediately, he just looked at He Rong quietly.
The young man in front of him was wearing a black fox fur, as if his whole body was exuding black yin energy. His face was very pale and tired.
But those eyes were like deep pools, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Seeing that He Lian didn't speak, He Rong couldn't help but look up at He Lian and said, "A Lian, aren't you looking for me? Now that you see me, why don't you say anything? You know I'm very busy now. "
Under He Rong's urging, He Lian finally spoke at this time, but what he said as soon as he opened his mouth was, "Brother, does Nuo Niang's death have anything to do with you?"
"Alian, what are you talking about?" He Rong only coaxed Helian with a look that showed that Helian was making trouble unreasonably.
However, Helian asked again, "Brother! Does Nuo Niang's death have anything to do with you? I want you to answer me personally."
Hearing He Lian's repeated questioning, He Rong's face finally darkened.
"Why are you asking about this? Is that woman in your tent trying to flirt with you and me again! Ah Lian, do you think I am that kind of person? Do you think I will hurt you?" He Rong seemed to be at this moment. He was also a little angry, and he couldn't help raising his voice to question He Lian.
However, this time, He Lian did not say a word. He slowly walked towards He Rong step by step.
"Brother, I don't know."
While he was talking, he only handed the letter that was crumpled after he spread it out to He Rong.
This piece of paper was like a hot potato, burning his nerves and soul.
On the one hand, he just wanted to throw the letter away. He wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, but on the other hand, he couldn't turn a blind eye to Noniang's death.
Under this extreme pull, he still chose to question his elder brother.
He Rong looked at the big words written on the letter paper and couldn't help but sneered, "A Lian, are you going to doubt your brother just because of such a note? A Lian, your eldest brother, am I so disrespectful in your heart?" You are worthy of trust, am I not as good as a random note to you?"
Facing He Rong's questioning, He Lian's eyes just felt pain. Of course, he didn't want to believe this. Of course, he also hoped that his eldest brother was innocent.
But the facts were in front of him, and he really couldn't turn a blind eye.
Naturally, he also remembered that his elder brother would always protect him during those days when he was being beaten, and it was even because of him that he developed a cough.
But those good things couldn't offset the fact that Nuoniang died because of him. He really couldn't figure out what kind of hatred his elder brother had with Nuoniang, and what kind of hatred would make his elder brother want to attack Nuoniang.
When he thought of this, He Lian felt a burning pain in his heart.
Then he just took the note from He Rong's hand, and then he burned the note on the fire.
But in a moment, a meaning appeared on the fire.
He Rong could only clearly see the handwriting on the letter paper through the firelight.
Seeing that line of writing, he naturally recognized it as Dama's handwriting at a glance.
But he never expected that Dama would actually leave such a letter to Lady Qi. From the content of this letter, it can be known that Dama clearly divorced Lady Qi on purpose. In this way, It seemed that he had already guarded against him, but he only regretted that he had not taken precautions against it.
But even so, it was too late to regret.
He Rong only glanced at He Lian expressionlessly, and then he just whispered, "A Lian, did you get this letter from Madam Qi?"
Helian just nodded silently after hearing this.
"Brother, could it be that you also killed Madam Qi?" Then he couldn't help but ask.
When He Rong heard this, he only restrained his mind, and then he only said slowly and in a low voice, "Yes."
"What about Nuo Niang?" He Lian continued to ask, and when he asked this question, his palms clenched tightly unconsciously.
Seeing He Lian's angry look but having to restrain himself, He Rong's expression seemed slightly moved, and he only whispered, "It's also related to me."
"Why are you doing this?" He
Lian then couldn't help but ask about He Rong.
When He Rong heard this, he just lowered his eyebrows and said, "A Lian, let's not talk about this for now. After this war is over, I will naturally explain everything to you."
Hearing He Rong's words, He Lian persisted and said, "But I want to know the answer!"
"Brother, you and Nuo Niang are equally important in my heart! There should be no big grudge between you and Nuo Niang! I really don't understand why you want to attack Nuo Niang?"
Hearing He Lian's words, He Rong's eyebrows also froze.
He just sneered, "A-Lian, do you think that I and Nuo Niang are really equally important in your heart? But ask yourself, how many times have you been in tit-for-tat with me because of Nuo Niang? This time you even had that relationship with me because of that. Nuo Niang is a woman who looks a bit like her and you are angry with me! Ah Lian, you keep calling me eldest brother. I shouldn’t care so much about it, but Ah Lian, ask yourself, do you really think of me like this? Big brother?"
Hearing He Rong's words, even He Lian couldn't help but be silent for a moment.
However, he still whispered, "Brother, of course you are also important to me. You risked your life to save me many times. I will remember it in my heart. I have always thought that I will give everything for brother. I will always follow brother." With such steps, I can achieve everything my eldest brother wants. But eldest brother, Nuo Niang is different to me. She is my life and a wound that I can never touch in my life. You clearly know how important Nuo Niang is to me. , but why do you still do this to me? Why do you do this to Nuo Niang? "
Hearing He Lian's question, He Rong became rarely silent. After a long time, he said softly, "Of course I don't want to do anything to Nuo Niang. After all, as you said, I don't actually have any deep grudge against her." Resentment. But A Lian, the last thing she should do is to try to drive a wedge between you and me."
"A Lian, I just want you to stay with me, but she always wants to push you away. She thinks I'm a burden, and she wants to abandon me, but how can I let you go! Are you okay? It's easy to get close to me, I really hate those people who try to hinder me!" When He Rong said this, he only buried his hands painfully in the thick black hair.
If others heard such words, they might inevitably think that He Rong had some inappropriate thoughts about his younger brother.
However, He Lian knew his eldest brother best. When he thought of the possibility behind him, his original anger turned into falling into the ice cave in an instant.
After a long time, he whispered, "Brother, why do you want me to stay with you?"
He Rong did not say anything when he heard this.
However, Helian asked in a trembling voice, "Brother, did you deliberately approach my mother and me from the beginning?"
Hearing this question, He Rong was stunned for a moment, and then he said with self-mockery, "Of course it is intentional. My mother is a humble Yongdi slave girl. Because of this, even though I am my father's son, I am only To be able to live like a slave. You said that we are also our father's sons, why can you live so gloriously? You are princes when you are born, but I can only be a slave!"
"A Lian! I'm not willing to give in! So I work hard to train myself and express myself, just to tell my father that I am no worse than others!"
"But A Lian, you have also seen that my performance did not win the favor of my father. Instead, I only became the one who was beaten! I became that bastard's whetstone. In fact, there is no difference between me and you, A Lian." I just wanted to be safe. I thought I could get your mother's blessing, but I didn't expect that this blessing would be so short-lived. After that, I was grateful to your mother, so I protected you, A Lian. , I didn’t have any ulterior motives from the beginning.”
Facing He Rong's explanation, He Lian's expression seemed to have warmed up, but his eyes were still very cold. He seemed to be unable to accept the fact that his eldest brother killed the person he loved most. .
When He Rong saw this, he just whispered: "A Lian, I know it's my fault. You want to take my life! I deserve it! But before that, can we wait for this war to end?" Are you going to take my life later?"
"A Lian, you should know how long I have been planning for today, and how desperate it is for the three armies to have no commander at this time! A Lian, I just want to prove myself to my father."
However, upon hearing this, Helian snorted lightly, "Brother, what are you saying now?"
You just want to coax me, right? In fact, I have been thinking about what I am to you! Sometimes I really feel that you are very kind to me, but other times, I feel like you are just using me! "
"For example, right now, I'm thinking that you're not actually worried about me, are you? Are you just afraid that I'll affect your deployment? You're just afraid that I won't be able to work hard for you!"
Hearing He Lian's words, He Rong's expression suddenly condensed.
He didn't expect that He Lian actually guessed his intention, so he simply admitted his thoughts. He only said coldly, "Yes! You are right! The reason why I kept you by my side later was, I just want you to work hard for me! Even if I ask you to stay with me now, I am really just afraid that you will give up! When you hear this now, you feel satisfied! "
However, when He Rong spoke like this, there were tears between He Lian's eyebrows.
"Okay! Let's go!" He Rong said coldly.
After saying these words, He Rong stopped looking at He Lian, and He Lian just looked at He Rong steadily.
Just when the two were confronting each other, He Lian suddenly pulled out a long sword from his hand.
Seeing that the sword edge was about to cut through his neck.
He Rong then raised his head and looked at He Lian. He said in a cold voice, "What? You can't stand it anymore? Do you want to kill me now? Ah Lian, of course I have some intention to be good to you! If I don't have any intention at all!" Why am I being nice to you?"
"What I said is so clear now! I think you can take action, right?"
