I have a role in the heavens
Chapter 625: There is no greater sorrow than death.
Jiang Ni was reading very smoothly, and Xu Fengnian was listening attentively, but Jiang Ni suddenly burped. The little clay figurine seemed a little shy and covered his mouth with his hand. Xu Fengnian said with a teasing smile.
"Ten cents will be deducted!"
Jiang Ni was immediately furious and threw the book on the table. He stopped reading in anger and pouted, looking at His Highness the Crown Prince who was exploiting her hard-earned money. You must know how much energy she spent on reading good books. Xu Fengnian actually wanted to deduct money from him, how could he not make the money-hungry Jiang Ni angry?
It’s interesting to say that although Jiang Ni knows how to save money, she actually lacks a basic understanding of money. She doesn’t know what one tael of silver can buy, and she doesn’t know the market prices. She keeps saving money, but she is just a person. The little girl who lost her country found a support for herself.
As the night got darker, Wang Linquan suddenly visited Xu Fengnian and explained something. Xu Fengnian called Lu Qiantang in and accompanied him to the gate of a courtyard.
"The person you want to see is here. The women and children of the Lin family are all here, but the adult men are difficult to save!"
Wang Linquan's eyes were full of warning, he looked at Lu Qiantang and said with a hint of meaning.
Lu Qiantang looked at the wooden door in front of him. He could wield the Chixia Giant Sword with his arms, but could not push the wooden door open. He felt panic and self-blame in his heart. If he hadn't acted recklessly and failed to assassinate the Northern Liang Crown Prince, his family would be destroyed. The Liyang Dynasty was treated as a scapegoat, and everyone in the family was executed. Why did the Qingzhou Lin family end up like this?
Tears of regret in their eyes could not help but fill up the clothes on their chests. When Wang Linquan and Xu Fengnian saw this, they also knew that they were not suitable to be here, so they left silently, leaving their space to Lu Qiantang.
It took Lu Qiantang a long time to collect his emotions, wiped away his tears, stretched his right hand forward tremblingly, and gently knocked on the door. After doing this, his arm suddenly drooped, as if it was this gentle His actions took up all his strength and courage.
Lu Qiantang lowered his head, not daring to look at the courtyard door. His ears were raised high, listening to the movements in the courtyard, like a frightened rabbit, both afraid of hearing the noise and full of expectation to see a familiar figure.
"Squeak!"
"who are you looking for?"
A gentle old woman's voice sounded. There was a hint of strength in her voice. It could be felt that this old woman was a person with a strong character. Although her tone was gentle, her actions should be as bold as Mulan's.
"Lin Yu, the unfilial son of the Lin family, has met my mother!"
Lu Qiantang did not raise his head, but knelt down hard on his knees, buckled his head on the bluestone on the ground, and kowtowed three times. Bright blood stains suddenly appeared on the bluestone. In the end, he didn't dare to raise his head and stuck it tightly to the floor.
The old woman looked at the figure in front of her that exuded regret and embarrassment. How many times had she dreamed of it in her dreams? She worriedly stretched out her hands to help the figure in front of her, but she put it down halfway, and her steps were like It was as heavy as lead, and I couldn't take a step forward. There was love and hatred in my eyes, a mixture of love and hate.
The old woman looked at the kneeling figure quietly on the ground, put away the complicated emotions in her eyes, and said coldly.
"So it's you, how come you're still alive?"
Lu Qiantang whispered with great shame.
"My son knows that he shouldn't live an ignoble existence, but when he heard that my family was implicated by me and was labeled a rebellious generation, he was unwilling to accept it. He had no choice but to change his name and join the King of Beiliang to fight for a chance for the Lin family!"
The old woman's heart ached. How could she not hate her? How could she not know that the son in front of her was actually a mighty and unyielding man, but now most of the men in the Lin family died because of him. Thinking of other family members, she felt furious. shouted sharply.
"The Lin family has been clean for generations, loyal to the emperor and patriotic. How could there be such a shameless and conceited person like you? I wonder who this gentleman's name is now, and I wonder if he feels that he has brought shame to our ancestors!"
When Lu Qiantang heard this, he seemed to be heartbroken by these words. His waist, which had some support, suddenly fell to the ground, without any strength left.
"me,."
Lu Qiantang was speechless and couldn't utter a single word of explanation. Confucianism values killing one's life to achieve benevolence. The Lin family has been a scholarly family for generations, and it is a clear stream of scholars. Now, he has violated the teachings of Confucianism and lived in an ignoble way. He has taken refuge in the enemy. It is indeed a disgrace to his family. , even if you go to hell after death, you will not be able to see your ancestors.
The old woman looked at her son who was speechless in front of her, and finally said a heartless word, turned around and closed the courtyard door vigorously.
"I would rather die, then I will only be proud of you. Now you are living an ignoble life, but you have ruined the Lin family's reputation, and no longer have the face to stand in the world. I would rather never have a scoundrel like you, and we will never have one again." Guanggan, please please leave, sir!"
Lu Qiantang was drained of the last bit of strength from his body. His face was pale, and his head was pressed tightly to the ground. Tears seemed to be dripping from the blood, which mixed with the soil and stained Lu Qiantang's face. For a long time, Lu Qiantang lifted his head. He got up, kowtowed three times again, stood up staggeringly, and walked towards Xu Fengnian's residence with unsteady steps, leaving only a pool of blood mixed with tears on the ground.
The old woman leaned against the door of the courtyard, her eyes full of tears. How could she not know her son's painstaking efforts? But she was now the head of the Lin family and could not be soft-hearted. There were women and children in the woods in the courtyard who asked her to support her. The Lin family, as well as the men of the Lin family who died in vain, were all heavy burdens placed on her, a helpless woman. How could she forgive Lin Yu, the sinner of the Lin family, on behalf of these people?
Lu Qiantang moved step by step. His strength had reached the second level. How could he not hear the suppressed breathing and crying behind a wooden door? It was just that he did not dare to expose it. This meeting made him know that his refuge was not It was meaningless, but he was already a shame to the Lin family while alive. He secretly made a decision in his heart. He already had the best of both worlds. As long as he died for Xu Fengnian, he would not break his promise to surrender, but also bring shame to the Lin family. Disappearing will not cause the ancestors to continue to be humiliated.
Thinking of this, Lu Qiantang's footsteps seemed to be a little more brisk, but the shadows in his heart had already spread all over his heart, and the only light in his eyes disappeared. The aura of death had filled his whole body. There is nothing more sorrowful than death. This is the most miserable thing in the world.
Xu Fengnian was coaxing Jiang Ni at this time. I don’t know what method he used to finally calm down Jiang Ni’s anger at being deducted ten cents. The two were talking and laughing. When Lu Qiantang came in, Xu Fengnian was very interested. asked.
"how?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Lu Qiantang will be His Majesty's dog from now on, and he is willing to die for His Highness!"
Lu Qiantang had already cleaned up his appearance at this time and said respectfully.
Xu Fengnian did not hear the intention to die in Lu Qiantang's words, but nodded with satisfaction. What he wanted was someone who could die for him.
Xu Zongjia frowned, took a look at Lu Qiantang, who looked lifeless, and shook his head helplessly.
Li Chungang also seemed to see something wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
