Chapter 710: One Move
After taking a short rest, they set off on their way back.
It’s just that we galloped all night last night. Today we are tired and our horses are tired, and we all have some injuries. We also have to carry Wang Shaoji’s body, so the return journey is very slow. , it was not until 10 noon that I rested in Mengyang, had a simple meal and then walked back. Near dusk, I saw the tall and majestic outline of Taiyuan City again.
Finally back.
The people who greeted them at the city gate were very different from the neat queues yesterday. Everyone was a little worried and expectant. However, once they saw the two princes returning safely, even with Wang Shaoji's body, the atmosphere immediately changed.
Although they understand that among the two Wang brothers, the one who is really in charge, or in other words, the one who is manipulating everything behind the scenes, is Wang Shaoqiu, but Wang Shaoji has a bad reputation, and when Yu Wenyuan ascended the throne in Chang'an and proclaimed himself emperor, he issued a proclamation to commit regicide. It was also Wang Shaoji, so in the eyes of everyone, this man was heinous and guilty, so seeing his body was so satisfying.
For a time, the whole Taiyuan was boiling.
Back at Yuwen’s old house in Taiyuan, there were already guards on the third and third floors here. They each went back to their rooms to take a bath and rest, but even though the courtyard was deep, Shang Ruyi could still hear It was very lively outside, and there were cheers and gongs and drums in the streets and alleys, just like the Chinese New Year.
However, in the center of such excitement, she was actually very calm.
Under Wuxue's service, I took a comfortable bath and washed away the dirt, blood and dirt accumulated on my body these days, as well as the "bad luck" in Woxue's mouth, before returning to the room. , as soon as he dried his hair, he saw Yu Wenye had finished bathing and changing clothes, and then opened the door and came in.
The two people looked at each other and said nothing.
Yu Wenye glanced at Wuxue who was still standing behind Shang Ruyi, combing her long hair in front of the bronze mirror, and said calmly: "Go down. After a while, the food will be set outside and call us again. "
Wuxue immediately said: "Yes."
After that, he put down the wooden comb in his hand and turned around and went out.
He closed the door smoothly.
Shang Ruyi still sat motionless in front of the bronze mirror. His clear eyes reflected the flickering candlelight not far in front of him. It was so bright, but reflected in the bronze mirror, there seemed to be a trace of confusion lingering in his eyes.
Until Yu Wenye slowly walked up behind her, picked up the wooden comb, rolled up her dark and smooth long hair, and combed it for her bit by bit, her hair gradually became softer, and the look on his body This warm breath also dispelled the confusion in her eyes. Shang Ruyi gradually woke up and looked at the people behind her.
She whispered: "Are you still angry with me?"
"..."
Yu Wenye didn't speak, only twisted her strand which was still a little wet. Her hair and solemn expression were reflected in the mirror, and looked even heavier under the flickering candlelight.
It also made Shang Ruyi's breathing become heavier.
She was silent for a while, and then said softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you angry or make you worry."
"..."
" I just want to——"
Speaking of which Here, she seems to know that some words are unspeakable, especially in front of her husband. Yu Wenye is not a small-minded person, but it is difficult for any man to tolerate his wife having her in his heart. Thoughts, especially, were for other men.
But when Shang Ruyi found it difficult to speak, Yu Wenye raised his head and glanced at her.
Then he said calmly: "You just want to avenge him, right?"
"...!"
Shang Ruyi took a breath and looked up at him .
Yu Wenye remained silent, slowly letting go of the strand of hair on his fingertips, and sighed: "Everyone said that you killed Wang Shaoji, the culprit, but I can see it. , that arrow of yours was obviously aimed at Wang Shaoqiu." "..."
“In your heart, it was Wang Shaoqiu who forced him to death.”
“…”
“So, the one you want to kill is also Wang Shaoqiu. ”
“……”
"The reason why Luxiao secretly came to find you without revealing her identity is because she was not sure whether she could convince us, but you followed her. At this time, there is no other reason other than hatred."< br>
Shang Ruyi’s face gradually turned pale.
When Yu Wenye said "him" from her mouth, her heart felt as if a big stone had been pressed on her - or in other words, it had been pressed for a long time and she had not let go of it these days.
I originally thought that today I could kill my enemy and avenge him, but I didn't expect that I still missed the mark.
Just as Yu Wenye said, yesterday, they led the troops and galloped towards Dongcheng. Before leaving, Yu Wenye warned her, "Don't follow me." This made her a little stunned, and When she was about to make a move, the enchanting beauty Lu Xiao suddenly appeared in front of her.
At that moment, she was indeed shocked.
Although the two people have met before, they have never been familiar with each other. Moreover, Lu Xiao was kept by Wang Shaoji's side, and he always obeyed and was very favored. In their eyes, Lu Xiao was even considered an enemy. people.
So, seeing her appear in front of him, Shang Ruyi's first reaction was to be on guard.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao appeared in front of her, and the first thing she said was - "That painting, young lady, oh no, it was the princess. Princess Qin should repay me Right? "
At that moment, Shang Ruyi felt like he was struck by lightning.
She stared blankly at the enchanting beauty who slowly walked out of the dark night. No matter how time passed, the flames of war burned her bones, or the flames of war whetted her heart, the beauty was still a beauty; but she could also see that over the years, Lu Xiao should She had suffered a lot, and although her clothes were still gorgeous and her appearance was peerless, her eyes filled with spring water, even in the depths of her smile, revealed a deep-seated hatred that could not be eliminated.
Shang Ruyi finally understood that when Yu Wenye attacked Xingluocang, he was plotted by Wang Shaoji and others, and the person who sent her the painting to remind her of all this turned out to be Lu Xiao!
“It’s you?”
She couldn’t believe it, but she knew in her heart that it was only her!
And Lu Xiao smiled faintly and said: "If this is not enough, then the princess can also repay me for her kindness in sending news to the deputy commander of the Zuogong Army in Jiangdu. , isn’t it?”
"...!"
Shang Ruyi's heart beat like thunder again.
She stared blankly at those bright eyes with murderous intent gradually emerging, and the gloomy memories of her time in Jiangdu also enveloped her again. Sure enough, that painting was also made by the same person. That is what is right in front of me - green silk!
She asked: "How do you want me to repay you?"
For a moment, the coldness in Lu Xiao's eyes suddenly became clear, and the murderous intention was no longer concealed.
I saw her gritting her teeth and saying word by word: "I want you to help me kill Wang Shaoji and Wang Shaoqiu!"
