Chapter 198 Crying all the way
Wang Tingyue did not hesitate, turned to look at Xiao Wu aside: "Tomorrow, you will accompany the girl first."
This time, even the good things were spared.
Liang Huan looked at him silently.
Wang Tingyue met her gaze, moved the corners of his lips slightly, and smiled lightly: "I can also ask Lou Shixun to walk slower."
Liang Huan frowned: "Aren't you afraid that I will go and report the news in advance?"
Gao Qianming accepted Lou's suggestion and asked Lou Shixun to take over the army and escort Lu Xiu back to Jinye.
Although I don’t know what the Queen Mother’s purpose is in using Wang Tingyue, letting him go with her this time must be to test him. If Lu Xiu escapes, how can he get away with it?
The half moon reflected the clear water of the river, and the night wind blew over the cheeks, making them feel wet and cool.
Perhaps the moonlight is too soft, making people's eyes extremely gentle.
Wang Tingyue's eyebrows stretched and he smiled calmly: "So what, he let me go once, and I can let him go once. Besides, he is your husband, and I hope you are well."
Liang Huan's throat was so tight that she couldn't speak.
Wang Tingyue looked at her for a moment and said gently: "Brother, I can see that he treats you sincerely."
Liang Huan lowered his head, his eyes wet.
Wang Tingyue understood at a glance that she felt guilty about herself, but this was not what he wanted.
He became more and more sad, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and said: "Although you and I couldn't see each other during the years when my mother was ill, I know that those medicinal materials were sent by someone on your behalf. When she was dying, she said It’s a pity that I couldn’t be given the identity of a direct descendant, but in my heart, what I cherish more than anything else is our acquaintance, do you understand?”
Liang Huan took a breath and slowly nod.
Wang Tingyue hesitated for a moment, then reached out and patted her on the top of her head, like he did when he was a child: "Go back."
Liang Huan was startled and looked up at him, it looked like they were running away. Later, she was reluctant to go back, so he patiently persuaded her.
Since Wang Tingyue returned to Jinye, she has always avoided him intentionally or unintentionally, and she has never been alone with him. Is it because she doesn’t want to cause trouble to him as she said, or is it because she still has a knot in her heart and doesn’t know how to face it? ?
They have known each other for a long time, how could he not see it? When she avoided her, he gave in, but he didn't know that avoiding her was the most hurtful thing.
After reviving her life, in her eyes and heart, in addition to revenge, should she cherish and hold on to all the lost things?
Liang Huan’s heart suddenly became clear.
Raised his head, with tears in his eyes, smiled at him: "Brother."
Xiao Wu stood not far away like a shadow, silently looking at the two people talking. He had known the girl for a long time before coming to Jinye.
My eyes turned to the tall and straight figure, but there was sadness everywhere, and I just felt pity in my heart.
The next day, when the sun was rising, Lou Shixun sat up from the bed with his butt stuck out and his limbs weak.
Since he really couldn't dine with the common people, he just drank and had fun with them as usual. When he came back, he suffered from vomiting and diarrhea all night long.
It must be that the common people are too humble and dirty, which is why they are so tired, Lou Shixun thought.
A cramping pain came from his lower abdomen, one wave stronger than the other. The pain caused his whole body to twist and deform. He no longer cared about maintaining the grace he should maintain, and just wanted to collapse.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Amidst the screams, Lou Shixun grabbed the attendant's arm and was lifted up like a weak-footed shrimp. After a loud noise, he let out a long breath.
The attendants held their breath and stopped talking. Their faces had been green since midnight last night.
Liang Huan simply packed up and went out with a small baggage, still riding a horse.
Wang Tingyue helped her get on the horse: "It seems that when we first arrived yesterday, you had planned to go first."
Liang Huan did not hide it from him, but put the laxative in Lou Shixun's meal at noon.
With Lu Xiu's keenness, he could see through what Lou Shixun wanted to do at a glance, and he would not be able to accomplish it if he walked with him.
Liang Huan took the small bundle from Wang Tingyue, tied it on his body, and whispered softly: "Brother, you don't have to drag him all the time. I only need to arrive three days earlier than you."
There is no disguise or makeup on her pointed white face, it is the most authentic look, like a pure and flawless lotus growing on the top of the snow-capped mountains, strong and beautiful. Wang Tingyue nodded slightly, three days was enough to escape.
"Be careful yourself."
Liang Huan nodded and glanced at Xiao Wu: "Let's go."
The horse's hooves lifted lightly, and the two horses flew forward like arrows, one behind the other. go out.
The fall of Luyang was a typical example of attacking from the east and attacking from the west. Luhuai was wiped out all the way, causing heavy casualties.
After this battle, Lu Xiu had no choice but to retreat to Pingzhou.
Already experiencing a major defeat, the morale of the army was frustrated, and morale was at a loss. Lu Huai's deathbed letter was discovered in blood, and rumors continued to spread. Let alone offensive counterattack at this time, it would be good to continue to defend Pingzhou.
Liang Huan and Xiao Wu walked all the way. The further they walked toward Pingzhou, the more devastated they became. Looking along the way, they were all people who had fled due to the war. They all said that Pingzhou was about to be lost. The generals have colluded with the enemy. The iron hooves of the Northern Zhou Dynasty will step over their bodies at any time. If they don't run away, they will become unjust ghosts.
Walking all the way, listening all the way, watching all the way, those who fled along the way, those who couldn't hold on, the good ones were buried in earthbags, and the bad ones were dumped on the roadside.
That's how it is.
However, the city of Yecheng in Jin was still immersed in arrogance, extravagance and extravagance.
Xiao Wu had experienced this kind of scene before, so he was not surprised. But this was Liang Huan's first time. Although he had imagined it before coming here, after seeing it with his own eyes, he realized that it was more serious than imagined.
For the sake of their own political achievements, local officials either conceal it or refuse to report it, or report it to no avail and simply let it go.
Liang Huan did not dare to think about what Pingzhou City was like, how Lu Xiu persisted until now, and what was the meaning of persisting until now, and Lu Huai's death was not worth it.
The mourners are everywhere here, and they cannot wake up the people thousands of miles away who are drunk and dreaming.
Liang Han stood up and sighed.
"Girl." Xiao Wu jumped off the horse and handed over the sheepskin bag filled with water.
Liang Huan took it and thanked her. She had no appetite during the whole journey and could only eat some dry biscuits and drink some water.
Xiao Wu looked into the distance: "This is already the boundary of Pingzhou. We should be able to get into the city before dark, but it may not be easy to get into the city now."
Liang Huan only responded softly. At this time, people's hearts were scattered. If there were a few more traitors in the city, they might be incited to abandon the city and surrender. They had to be cautious.
Suddenly, a sharp cry and curse sounded not far away.
Xiao Wu stood in front of Liang Huan and looked over cautiously.
In the sparse queue of refugees, some people were pulling, pushing and pushing, as if fighting over fighting for food.
A woman shouted with a cry: "This man who killed a thousand swords, he is a dignified seven-foot-tall man. He looked at us orphans and widowed mothers. He has been scornful of the slave family all the way, and now he is robbing the slave family of children." Eat! Are there any laws of heaven or law?"
Except for a few people who stopped for a moment and took a look, most people were walking forward with walking sticks and dragging their bodies.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, the woman sat on the ground half holding the child and cried loudly. The man's originally flustered and guilty expression became fierce and arrogant again.
"You bitch, what are you talking about? I am your man, and I should eat yours, drink yours, and sleep yours!"
As he spoke, he raised his fist and hit the woman.
Xiao Wu was very angry, "What kind of man is this!"
He was about to rush forward with anger.
“Wait.”
Liang Huan grabbed him.
