Before leaving, I entered the beautiful scenery. Looking back, it was still a lonely dream.
If beauty is a kind of original sin, then Su Daji is a woman born in the wrong era.
She was originally the daughter of a marquis, and she had enjoyed all the wealth and honor in the world since she was born. Her father was convicted of rebellion, and her life was like a speeding waterfall, falling from dignity to a deep pool.
Looking at her old friend in front of her, Su Daji was not very happy. From Zheng Lun's words, she covered her mouth in disbelief. She couldn't believe that the man to whom she had entrusted all her life, life and future actually wanted to kill her.
She doesn't understand the feelings of family and country, nor does she understand what the king's will is. She only knows that now she finally has nothing.
This beauty was despairing of all her thoughts. No matter how Zheng Lun roared in her ears, she ignored him. She just stood there blankly, looking into the distance and looking at her hometown going east.
"Su Hou treats me with sincerity. Zheng Lun failed to protect the safety of my lord, but I can't bear to see you harmed again. Marquis, please leave quickly. If you don't leave, it will be too late!"
"Go? Where can I go? The world is so big, where is my place?"
"No matter where you go, even if you are still alive, it is better than dying. To Donglu, to Southern Xinjiang, even if you go to Shiwan Mountain, it is better than dying here!"
She is just a woman, and she is so beautiful. Where can she go? For a beautiful woman like her, walking alone on the street is a test of a man's determination. How far can he run and how long can he run for?
The door of the harem creaked, and Su Daji's eyes lit up. The person who came was none other than her husband, the eldest son of Zhou State, Boyikao. However, before she could be happy, she saw her beloved husband holding a handful in his hand. Sharp Sword came over with tears streaming down his face.
"Husband...are you...going to kill me?"
The smile gradually faded, and the eyebrows and eyes that usually smiled like a crescent moon were now full of despair and sorrow. The disappointment and stinging questions revealed in the voice made Boyikao cover his face, ashamed, not knowing how to respond, so he could only say slowly He raised his sword and stepped forward.
"What sin did Daji commit that made her husband angry? Daji can change."
The man still didn't speak, and his steps gradually became firmer, while the light in the woman's eyes completely disappeared, and she knelt on the ground, closing her eyes and crying silently.
"It turns out there is no difference between you and my father. You are all the same. No matter how strong the alliance or the sweet talk, it can't compare to what you call the world."
"Daji is not convinced. Since you can't control your heart and it's impossible to abandon those great ambitions in your heart, why did you give me hope? Why did you choose to accept me at that time?"
Daji's emotions broke out and she screamed at Bo Yikao at the top of her lungs. She had been in despair for a long time. Ever since Su Hu raised his army, she knew that it was a road of no return, but who had ever heard her say that? What, asked her opinion? She had endured all the pain before, but now she couldn't bear it.
The man he loved the most gave him hope, but like a lie, he completely tore the whole magnificent dream into pieces.
Looking at Su Daji with crazy eyes, Boyikao's heart ached, and the sharp sword in his hand was trembling slightly. With every question, his benevolent and kind-hearted coat was torn to pieces with blood.
"I'm sorry, I thought I could do it, but I, Zhou Guo..."
"That's enough. Have you big shots ever considered my feelings? Why are you targeting me? I've had enough!"
"The benevolent and righteous Uncle Meng in your mouth destroyed my hometown with his own hands, killed my people, and massacred my Jizhou; your beloved king indiscriminately wanted to kill me; and you, Boyikao, you said you You have great ambitions, but you can't even protect your own woman, you can even deceive a weak woman, what qualifications do you have to recite benevolence and righteousness?"
Su Daji stood up, straightened her back, ignored the sharp blade pointed in front of her, and walked forward step by step.
Boyikao stepped back step by step in pain, switching back and forth between the overall situation and personal love in his heart.
Zheng Lun wanted to step forward and push Boyikao away, but was blocked by the whisk in Shen Gongbao's hand, shaking his head gently.
"Stay back. This is someone else's family matter. Why are you joining in the fun? Even if you want to be loyal to Su Hu, you have already done what you should do. The young master will decide for himself what the consequences will be."
Looking at the glaring Du'e master next to him, Zheng Lun sighed, put down the strange mace in his hand, and watched Su Daji worriedly as he walked forward step by step.
"Come on, kill me and realize the righteousness in your heart. Why, you don't dare to do it now? Have you never killed anyone? The eldest son of the Western Zhou Dynasty, young master, what are you waiting for?"
Su Daji's face was sarcastic and her words were unforgiving. Now she seemed to have an epiphany. She gradually began to understand what these men cared about most. Beauty was a kind of original sin. If she was born like an old woman in a mountain village, , why bother with Boyi Kao? Those who are caring are just one person, so why do they need to use her name to do so many things that seek the interests of all parties.
The daughter of a marquis is not a noble lady like Concubine Huang who endures silently. Everyone in this world will encounter all kinds of injustices. But Daji woke up at this moment and let out her own roar. The man she personally selected is unreliable, her father is unreliable, and everything in the world is unreliable. They are all unreliable. Without power, they can only become lambs to be slaughtered, allowing others to peel off their coats layer by layer and humiliate and ravage them at will.
"Young Master, if you don't kill me, I will walk out. If I escape and live, have you figured out how to explain it to that tyrannical and unscrupulous king?"
Looking at Boyikao who was still struggling in place, Su Daji sneered, "The eldest son of the Zhou Kingdom?" But that's it!
Daji walked out of the Hou Mansion with her jade feet, ignoring the guards who gathered around her, and walked resolutely. She was afraid of death, but now she was no longer afraid of death. What she resented even more was herself, who was still cowardly. Living is like a toilet chip. You can't wait to use it, but throw it away when you don't use it.
"There is no such thing as the equality of all living beings, there is no such thing as the righteous path of immortality, and there is no such thing as a wise master. You are all a group of people who shout slogans, but in essence they only ask others to sacrifice, and only fight like hyenas to cling to power. "
From Jizhou to Lingshan, and from Lingshan to Kunlun Mountain, and then to Xiqi, she experienced a lot, and finally understood her humbleness. At this moment, she is not afraid of the sword, and is no longer willing to silently accept the fate of her stubbornness. Well, maybe, as much joy as the glory and wealth in the first half of her life gave her, she has learned as much from the pain of these two years.
Tai Dianguo held the flail and silently walked towards this incredibly beautiful woman, but he heard Boyikao shout: "Let her go!"
"Master!!"
"My father is not here, so what I say doesn't work?"
Tai Dian looked at Su Daji bitterly, her heart boiling with anger: "Young Master has orders, Tai Dian will naturally obey them, but you have to think carefully, the King of Shang wants you to take her head to pay tribute to Chaoge, please think carefully Already?"
Boyikao did not reply, but quietly watched Su Daji, who was dressed in a thin green gauze, walk out of the long street and out of the city. The long sword in his hand fell and he sat slumped on the ground.
"Master, I disappoint you. Sure enough, Boyikao is still the same pedantic, incompetent and indecisive person. He has hurt others and also hurt the state of Zhou. Am I..."
Shen Gongbao patted Boyikao's back gently, with a little kindness in his eyes: "What are you saying? Shen Gongbao is willing to kill you, isn't it because of the morality in your heart? You have done a good job Okay, really, you are amazing, but the result may not be as good as imagined. If Bohou comes back, he won't blame you too much. If you want to blame it, it will be the stupid king and tyrant in Chaoge City. He is not Give us a way to survive, blindly force us, and want us to die!"
"You should cheer up. After all, the future Kingdom of Zhou will be handed over to you. Compassion should not control troops, but kindness and power are the king."
Tai Dian, San Yisheng and others left and returned, frowning and looking at Boyikao quietly. They didn't care at all about Daji's life or death. What they cared about was...
"Young Master, you are confused. The King of Shang asked you to go to the imperial court in person to plead guilty. If you don't have Su Daji in your hands, Di Xin will have a hundred reasons to torture you and anger you. My eldest son, you will become the most powerful person in the Zhou Kingdom. Her weakness is, if you don’t kill Su Daji today, she will not be grateful to you. If this daughter gets a backer, sooner or later it will be detrimental to you."
Listening to Tai Dian's reproach, Shen Gongbao slowly stood in front of Boyikao, protecting the sad "boy" behind him, and said with an arrogant face.
"Isn't it true that General Tai Dian, who is always getting stronger and stronger, has a past that he cannot look back on?"
"This is the Young Master's decision. Since the Young Master has given the order, you can just carry it out. Who gave you the right to openly provoke the Young Master and disrespect the Young Master in public? Everyone, as Meng said, a king acts as a minister. Now that we, the young master, have made the decision, we ministers must naturally support the young master, how can we tear open the scar and sprinkle salt into it?"
San Yisheng stopped Tai Dian, shook his head gently, then looked at Boyikao, sighed helplessly, and wanted to give his opinion, but he just looked at this "young man" who was just nineteen years old and looked heartbroken. , and stopped talking.
After all, he is just a child who has not even grown a beard. There is still a long way to go, so let him grow up slowly.
Boyikao looked at the silent minister, bowed respectfully, and said slowly: "I will take responsibility for the mistakes Boyikao made. Please ask Dr. San to prepare a seven-scent car, a sobering mat and a white-faced monkey for me." , these three treasures may be able to dispel the anger of Emperor Xin of the Shang Dynasty. Tomorrow morning, I will travel lightly and go to Chaoge to apologize!"
Shen Gongbao was shocked and immediately grabbed his sleeves and said with a worried look: "Master, don't be impulsive. Chaoge is a land of dragons and tigers' dens. If you come to Chaoge in person, the pack of jackals will not let you go easily. , please think twice!”
"I have no worries, Imperial Master. I have my own countermeasures. No matter how many hardships I encounter during this trip, it is all my own fault. I can't blame others. I will treat Emperor Xin sincerely as I serve my father. I must have endured the humiliation and bear the burden. The always arrogant Emperor Xin , it should not embarrass me."
All the ministers were not in a blaming mood at this time. They all looked at Boyikao worriedly and wanted to give advice, but they were unable to speak.
Now that things have come to this point, what else is there to say? Failing to pass the Boyi exam is tantamount to doing something wrong and refusing to admit it. That is what really gives Dashang the best reason to go to war.
As for Su Daji, she slowly and leisurely left Xiqi City and breathed a sigh of relief. She took one last look at the peaceful place where she had lived for a year behind her. Su Daji wiped the last drop of her tears without looking back. Go forward.
"The world is so small, no matter where I go, there seems to be no place that can accommodate me."
Going to Northern Xinjiang? Meng Chang, who caused the horrific incident in Jizhou, went out of his way to search for her traces after hearing about it. With this person's influence, as soon as he was recognized by someone, he would probably be caught and sacrificed to him.
It was even more impossible for Chaoge to go, it was just a place where everyone wanted to kill her.
Counting silently, out of the five in the world, there is no place where Daji's body can be accommodated. It's really ridiculous.
Just thinking about it, Zheng Lun's words rang in her ears at the end.
"Go to Shiwanda Mountain!"
One hundred thousand mountains! That is the land south of Southern Xinjiang.
It is a savage and desolate tribal world, an uncivilized primeval forest, and according to legend, it is the favorite paradise of witches, poisons, and evil gods. Since Jiuli moved to southern Xinjiang, he has spread southward countless times with successive Nanbohous. , pioneering, it seems that no matter how far south you go, there is still an endless sea of trees and mountains covered by forests.
This is a primeval forest filled with nothing but savagery and miasma. It is said that there are endless great monsters with extraordinary cultivation in it.
Of course, this barbaric land is not uninhabited. The Jingchu tribal alliance is located here, and they have conquered each other with Shang for four hundred years. In ancient times, Dayu called them Sanmiao, and in today's In the world, everyone calls them Jingchu.
Perhaps, this place can satisfy enough of her desires and demands.
Tips: According to the records of "Bamboo Chronicles", during the late Shang Dynasty, Jingchu was still a loose tribal alliance, until the leader of the Chu tribe, Mi Huanxiong, professed his vassalage to King Wen of Zhou, and then developed steadily until King Cheng of Zhou granted Xiong Yi the title of Viscount, and Chu Only then did the tribes integrate the major alliances of Jing and Chu and establish the prototype of the Chu State of Chu and Jing Culture.
Now, the leader of the Chu tribe, Mi Wanxiong and the Jilian tribe, should be the two most powerful groups at present. If you break it down further, it will be difficult to check. Friends with archeology departments can join the group to chat together. There are also cultural relic restoration and history in the group. Mythology book friends usually communicate together.
