Chapter 419: Purpose Beyond Victory and Defeat
At this moment, Shang Ruyi’s thoughts were suddenly confused.
As for Yuwen Sui’s “good relationship”, could it be that he has already had feelings for a girl from a certain family?
Just thinking about it, Shang Ruyi immediately felt strange. This man just put down his Buddhist beads at Dayan Temple yesterday. Could he really find a good match so quickly in this world of mortals?
Although I don’t know him very well, Shang Ruyi’s subconscious answer is no.
Even——
She couldn’t imagine what kind of woman it would take to match him...
Is there such a woman in this world?
Just when Shang Ruyi looked surprised and his thoughts were confused, Yu Wenyuan on the other side heard the word "good match", his eyes suddenly lit up, and he turned to look at his eldest son, full of expectation. He said: "Ke'er, is it true?"
But Yu Wenzei smiled calmly.
He said: "I don't know where the good relationship that my second brother mentioned comes from."
Yu Wenye said: "When I went to court today, I saw a carriage waiting for my eldest brother outside the palace gate. The person——Although I didn’t see it clearly, it seemed that he was The carriage of the Yu family."
"..."
"I heard that General Zuo Xiaowei has a pearl under his knees. "..."
“I don’t know who is on the carriage—”
Hearing this, Yu Wenyuan’s eyes brightened a little more. When he turned to look at Yu Wenzhen, he was almost showing a look of joy, but he saw Yu Wenzhen still smiled lightly and said calmly: "It seems that my second brother is worried about my marriage."
“…”
“It’s a pity that my second brother probably doesn’t know that Miss Yu is already engaged to the eldest son of Su Ji, the governor of Kuozhou. If I want To seize love with a sword will probably ruin the relationship between father and Su Shibo."
"..."
"So, I'm afraid there is no such fate between Miss Yu and I."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Ruyi's face was already flushed.
Although she knew she shouldn't, her discomfort and even guilt at this moment were really weighing on her heart like a heavy stone - Speaking of which, in their marriage, Yuwen Ye was not considered to be a "love-snatcher", and there was no affection between him and Yu Wensu, but what he said last night was correct. In the eyes of the world, it was Shang Ruyi who abandoned Yu Wensu.
So, talking about his "good match" and marriage is like a knife on his heart.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed - why did Yu Wenye talk about this while she was still there!
She turned her head and glared at him angrily.
Yu Wenye remained calm and said: "Well, I was the one who was rude and I apologize to my eldest brother."
Yuwen Ye smiled lightly and said: "It all depends on good and bad fate. Is it time to come? At that time. I just put down the Buddhist scriptures. Thinking about it, fate doesn’t come so quickly.” br>
What he said was somewhat mysterious, but it shocked Yu Wenyuan, a father.
After all, it is very difficult for this eldest son who has been immersed in Buddhism and has practiced Buddhism for many years to put down his Buddhist scriptures and return to the Duke's mansion. He must not be forced to do so just because of the important matter of his marriage. He has to avoid the world of mortals.
He smiled, waved his hands and said: "That's true, let's talk about it later."
After that, he picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile: "Okay, we have been talking for a long time and even the food It’s almost cold. Eat first. If you have any questions, we can wait until after the meal.”
So, everyone picked up their bowls and chopsticks and started eating, and the matter seemed to have passed by.
But Shang Ruyi didn't.
After lunch, everyone sat and drank tea for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest. As soon as she walked in, she immediately looked up at Yu Wenye.
His eyes were burning, as if he wanted to read some answer from his face.
Yu Wenye looked at her indifferently and went to pour a cup of tea. While drinking, he sat down at the low table. As soon as he sat down, Shang Ruyi sat next to him again, still staring into his eyes.
Yu Wenye finally said: "What?"
Shang Ruyi said: "Why did you say those words just now."
"What words?"
"It is - a good relationship. Why did you say those words?"
>"..."
Yu Wenye raised his eyebrows slightly: "Shouldn't I say it?"
Shang Ruyi stared at his eyes a little deeper and said: "You have never been a person who listens to the wind or rain. Even if you really see the Yu family's carriage waiting for your eldest brother, you should be able to figure out what's on the carriage. The identity of the person, and even the situation of the eldest lady of the Yu family, before speaking "
"..."
"But you spoke rashly without understanding anything. This is not your style."
"... ”
“Why?”
"..."
Yu Wenye looked at her for a while, then slowly put the teacup in his hand on the table, and said: "Well, you are indeed not as stupid as I thought yesterday."
"What?"
As soon as she heard this, Shang Ruyi was about to get angry, but before she could get angry, she saw a coldness slipping through Yu Wenye's eyes and said calmly: " I What I just said was actually just to test the relationship between him and Yu Dingxing - besides, I did see the Yu family's carriage waiting for him. Now it seems that the relationship between them has not broken down."
"..." "Since the relationship has not broken down, there is only one reason for their contradictory behavior - whether I lead the troops or not has different meanings to them."
"..."
"And the greatest meaning of a war is only one -"
"It is the result!"
Shang Ruyi's emotions Immediately affected by him, he forgot his anger and said hurriedly: "But the results of a war are nothing more than two-one is that you win a great victory and become a new noble in the court; the other is failure."
"..."
"So, the purpose of whether they recommend you or not recommend you is based on these two results, right?"
"..."
Yu Wenye looked at her, his eyes seemed to twinkle He looked slightly happy, then faded away, and said: "So, it will be good for you to read less Buddhist scriptures. Your mind is much brighter now than yesterday."
"...! ”
Shang Ruyi frowned again.
Yu Wenye then said: "But, I also can't figure it out."
Shang Ruyi said hurriedly: "What?"
Yu Wenye said: "If we talk about recommendation I don’t recommend it because I hope I will fail. I—maybe I hope that I don’t have to go through the dangers of war. In this case, I won’t be able to achieve successful results, but the difference between the two results is not big, and it is not worth the completely contradictory behavior of both parties.”
"..."
"Yu Dingxing must recommend me, I'm afraid he has other purposes besides winning or losing this battle."
Hearing what he said, Shang Ruyi's heart sank.
Indeed, Yu Wenye's mind was much clearer than hers. She only saw two outcomes: victory or defeat in the war, but Yu Wenye obviously saw more.
But——
What is the reason?
The biggest threat in this war came from Xue Xian, who made Yu Wenyuan evaluate him as "brave and invincible". Is this person's threat worthy of Yu Dingxing's big reaction in the court? Moreover, as a military general, Yu Dingxing should also understand the principle that soldiers are impermanent, power is impermanent, and water is impermanent. Even if Xue Xian is really brave and invincible, he may not be able to win every battle. If Yu Wenye can win this battle, wouldn't it mean that he loses more than he gains?
What else is his purpose?
Just when Shang Ruyi frowned and was almost lost in thought, Yu Wenye's somewhat cold voice sounded in his ears again: "However, the words I just said were indeed because - As a brother, I hope that my brother can really put down his Buddhist scriptures in his heart and form a relationship with someone in the mortal world. "
"...Huh? "
Why suddenly? Speaking of this?
Shang Ruyi was stunned and looked up at him.
I saw Yu Wenye turning his face to one side, not looking at her, and said calmly: "In this way, you don't have to talk to him about what monks and nuns only said verses."< br>
Fight him, gatha...?
Shang Ruyi stared at him blankly for a while, then suddenly came back to his senses.
What he was talking about was - the gatha he had opposed to Yu Wen in that Buddhist hall yesterday? !
He actually still remembers?
Shang Ruyi suddenly felt angry, funny, and a little unspeakably annoyed, and said: "When I was confronting him with the gatha, I didn't even know who he was."
Yu Wenye glanced at her: "Oh."
Obviously it was him who provoked him, but he looked indifferent at this time. Shang Ruyi became even more angry, stretched out his hand and grabbed his lapel and turned him to face him: "Yu Wenye, you are unreasonable!"
“……”
"I didn't know who he was at that time. I was just curious about his identity, so I told him about the gatha."
"..."
"Besides, we are right about him. You can hear the verses clearly, But you were alone with the eldest princess yesterday. I asked you what you said, but you refused to tell me."
"..."
"Today, she also took the initiative to help. You.”
"..."
"I didn't doubt you or her much, why do you doubt me instead?"
"..."
For some reason, I heard her With these words, Yu Wenye's originally deep eyes gradually became deeper. He looked at her and said with a half-smile: "You don't doubt us."
"..."
"So you don't mind at all, do you?"
"..."
For some reason, when he said this, there was a bit of a dangerous atmosphere.
The strange thing is that he once argued with him because of his relationship with Princess Crescent and Queen Mother Jiang, which caused him to make sarcastic remarks and even say "unity and separation". Therefore, he should not want to It's up to you to mind.
But why, when he said this, his expression could not be called kind at all.
One more thing - a sign of anger?
She suddenly felt something. She grasped the hem of his clothes harder and pulled Yu Wenye down to lower his head, looking deeply into the depths of his eyes.
Shang Ruyi said: "Do you hope I mind?"
