Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Chapter 450 Sacrifice (4)
Zuo You walked up to Guo Shao, staring at him and waiting for his explanation. △ Vertex Fiction,
At this time, Guo Shao swiftly took off the only accessory on his body from his waist: a jade pendant worn with a red string. Then put it on the wooden shelf of the wall chart, and whispered to Zuo You: "Let's imagine, this jade pendant is not a jade pendant..."
Zuo You was stunned and said, "It obviously is."
Guo Shao gave him a white look and said, "Think of it as a big iron ball with a blade stuck all over it, zoom it in!" Then he picked up the brush from the inkstone on the chopping board and drew a person on the drawing, "Here is a person who is tied up and can't move. Do you understand?"
Zuo You nodded.
Guo Shao picked up the hanging jade pendant, pulled it towards the direction of the drawing, and then let it go, and the jade pendant rose up in mid-air. "If we were to see this person in the picture, wouldn't we be afraid?"
Zuo You said: "If it's really a big iron ball with blades stuck all over it, you should be afraid?"
Guo Shao asked again: "Is it dangerous?"
Zuo You nodded: "Maybe be smashed into meatloaf."
Guo Shao shook his head and said, "It's not dangerous. As long as you pull this 'iron ball' to the right, within the limit of the person on the drawing, you will definitely not hit the person on it. Try it if you don't believe me."
Zuo You showed curiosity, and after trying several times, there was no exception. At this time, Guo Shao said: "What I want to say is that some things seem to be dangerous, but they are not. It just depends on whether you have the courage. Zhou Ehuang is definitely not a person who can kill, and I am not a villain. The purpose of attacking Nantang is to end the war and unify the country. We are not doing evil."
Zuo You said: "Even so, the lord is the commander of the army, so why 'tie yourself to this picture'?"
Guo Shao was silent for a moment, then said: "Zhou Ehuang must not want to come, she was forced. Just imagine how a country's empress would feel like this? I have to treat her kindly, so as to avoid the loss of beauty. To treat others well, we should first have trust; we don't believe her, saying anything is just a hypocritical effort..."
Zuo You kept shaking his head with an expression of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water: "No, I have to stay here tonight and sleep with my lord."
"Damn, I spent so much time talking with you, it's useless!" Guo Shao frowned, "Anyway, we can't easily expose Zhou Ehuang, she should be pinched by someone in Jiangning Mansion..."
... When Zhou Xian heard this, he hurriedly covered his mouth tightly with his hand, and then he stopped crying. The tears were like opening a sluice gate, and they couldn't stop, wetting his collar.
The murderous aura that was still rising just now disappeared completely in an instant. My heart was sore, soft, and painful, and my mind was a mess.
What should I do... what should I do? A word in her heart echoed back and forth, lingering.
But one thing is certain, the mobile phone opportunity that I thought I had tonight has now been lost. Judging by Zuo You's behavior, he must accompany Guo Shao in the tent; as long as there is someone around Guo Shao, Zhou Xian, a weak woman, has nothing to do.
She quietly walked away from behind the curtain, carefully returned to the bed, and lay down with her body. In an instant, all the strength in her body seemed to be drained, and she lay there motionless, feeling completely out of control, not knowing where she was, let alone where to go, she only knew how to cry, but she didn't know what else to do.
I don't know how long it took, but in a daze, she thought of the lingering and tender relationship with Guo Shao in Tokyo last year. The feeling of being filled, the tingling panic, the lightness of the clouds, and the indulgence that could not breathe seemed to happen just now. Zhou Xian's mouth was dry for a while, and after a while, his face became hot, and he scolded himself in embarrassment and annoyance: I am such a shameless woman, I never thought of such a thing.
But when she thought about it, she couldn't restrain herself. The memories of the past, which he had finally suppressed in her heart, flooded into her mind violently. After returning to Jiangning Mansion, it took her a long time to stop thinking about it; but now, all her previous efforts were in vain, and all the deep memories came back clearly.
He said: "Although you said you would not come to the appointment, I was afraid that you would be disappointed if you found out that the person was not there, so I waited for a while."
"Madam is like a plum blossom, beautiful with tenacity, and still blooming in the wind and snow."
"To be kind to her, you should first have trust..."
Zhou Xian's heart was sour again, the kind of emotional breakdown and connivance that flowed from the tears, but there was a trace of joy in the sourness. Only at this moment can she truly indulge her emotions...Hate! I hated meeting him too late, and I was already a married woman when I saw him, and I had entrusted my body and mind to others; I hated him for knowing that there would be no result, but came to rob my heart. regret! I regretted that when I was detained by him in Tokyo, I couldn't let go of my body, identity, and my hometown, so I left cruelly; if I had more courage and stayed, how could I be so desperate and in such a dilemma now?
But those remorseful indulgences are only for a moment, Zhou Xian is no longer a willful little girl, wait until his mood calms down. She thought of Zhou Jiamin, her identity as a queen of the country, Li Yu and the public opinion of the world, and realized that the desperate situation had not changed.
Not only has there been no change, but now there is more wandering, with no way forward and no way back. Now that things have happened, she will never assassinate Guo Shao, and she can't resist the previous arrangement... She can't even let go of death.
In this world, the most desperate thing is probably not death, but death without peace.
Zhou Xian was lying on the bed, but it was as if he was lying on a frying pan in the underworld, his body and mind were suffering and tortured.
...
Zhou Xian stayed up all night, and early the next morning, his eyes were red and swollen like peaches. When I got out of the curtain, I saw that Guo Shao had already woken up. Guo Shao took out a chewed willow branch from his mouth and threw it away, then turned to look at Zhou Xian: "Did you sleep well last night?"
Zhou Xian's eyes flickered, and he said: "I'm not familiar with the place where I live, so there are so many soldiers and men outside, so naturally I can't sleep well."
Guo Shao nodded and said casually, "That's true."
Zhou Xian asked softly again: "Where is that Zuo Shaoqing?"
Guo Shao was slightly stunned, and said, "He left after I woke up, and went back to catch up on sleep." He paused and said seriously, "Due to the lack of sincerity of the peace talks between the king of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the Zhou army will launch an important battle in the near future."
Zhou Xian pondered: "General Guo wants to attack Jiangning City?"
Guo Shaodao: "Don't dare to reveal the military plan for the time being. The Southern Tang Kingdom is not sincere enough for the peace talks, but after all, we have to send people here, and we have to accept the envoy's kindness first...Yesterday, the Southern Tang envoy wanted to let the singing girls perform dances. I plan to allow them to host a banquet. 'Wang Yao', do you want to perform dances with them?"
Zhou Xian immediately fell silent when he heard this. Presenting a dance is another killing opportunity!
She clearly remembered the planning process of Li Yu and Liu Liuyao. First, let Zhou Xian try to act as an internal response, because she has the opportunity to approach Guo Shao; but this method is not feasible now, because Liu Liuyao once wanted to be Zhou Xian's maid, but was rejected, and it is difficult to find a reason for Liu Liuyao to join the Chinese army... According to the plan, this way does not work, and the last solution is to risk public assassination during the dance!
Guo Shao and his subordinates are obviously wary of these singing girls, and Li Yu and others have also taken this into consideration. However, Guo Shao didn't understand another thing: he didn't know how fast Liu Liuyao's sword was!
Zhou Xian felt that Guo Shao was in danger, but she didn't dare to remind him, her mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to do.
"'Wang Yao'?" Guo Shao reminded.
Only then did Zhou Xian come back to his senses, and gave him a blank look with an "ah". Guo Shaodao: "I just asked you if you want to dance with other singing girls."
Zhou Xian frowned and said, "Okay, I want to go too."
