Chapter 32: The Wolf's Ambition
The wind and rain have begun to subside.
The early morning mist wetted Bai Yu's silver fox cloak.
After a night of drinking, he had never been so sober.
The family, the country, and the world were all held tightly by the piece of paper in his hand.
One step further is Tianji Hall. Going forward or retreating is only one step away.
Everything is within his reach.
"You're already here! Why are you still standing outside the hall coquettishly? Why don't you come in quickly!"
Bai Di looked at the sky outside the door, which had been snowing for a long time and was beginning to clear up. He felt the biting north wind blowing straight from the door, and couldn't help but say hello loudly.
"It's rare that you come to my place so early in the morning! Let's talk! What's the matter? Come on! Let's talk while we eat!"
Bai Di raised his hand and motioned for his son to sit down and have breakfast together.
"My son is here to deliver a message for someone! I put the letter down and left, so as not to disturb my father's enjoyment of breakfast."
Bai Yu strode forward, stuffed a letter into Bai Di's hand, turned around and left.
"Stop! If you don't allow it, let's see where you dare to run!"
Bai Di shouted loudly and stopped him.
He took out the letter in his hand with a suspicious look on his face, glanced at it twice, then looked delighted, slapped his thigh, touched his palm and laughed:
"Okay! I didn't expect you to be successful when you grow up! Bringing such great good news to Mr. Jun! Hahahaha! Yu'er, where is this messenger now? Quickly pass the message for me and call him
Come and see me!”
"promise."
Bai Yu knelt down and patted his chest in salute, then quickly followed the order and left.
The task was completed, but he couldn't feel relaxed at all.
I wonder if Lu Chengfeng will look at me like this from now on? Why should my mother’s life be exchanged for the lives of hundreds of soldiers who fought bloody battles?
He couldn't help but hesitate again, turned around and wanted to go to Tianji Palace to ask his father to take back his orders.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, calmed his mind, and took back his steps.
Anyway, sooner or later there will be a showdown between the two countries. In this case, it is better to cut the mess quickly!
If I can capture Jinghua City at the northern end in one fell swoop, after unifying the world, the borders will be cleared, the people will be at peace, and the world will be at peace!
So what's the point of sacrificing for a moment? History is built on numerous bones.
Bai Yu comforted himself in his heart.
That’s all
!That’s all!
In the post house, Lu Chengfeng had been drunk all day and was extremely depressed.
"Get up! Get up!"
Bai Yu pulled up Lu Chengfeng, who was lying on the ground unconscious, and patted his face hard.
"Go away! I don't want you to worry about it!"
Lu Chengfeng let out a breath of hot air and wanted to throw Bai Yu's hand away.
"Why is it so hot? He is sick! Someone is here! Send him back home with me!"
Bai Yu waved his hand and ordered.
"Sir, he is a hostage of Jingguo. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to bring him back to the house!"
Several of Bai Yu's followers advised him tremblingly.
"Talk too much! When will it be your turn to intervene in my business? Carry me back! Anyone who dares to talk too much will be punished with a stick at home!"
Bai Yu roared angrily.
"promise!"
Several followers quickly and respectfully loaded Lu Chengfeng onto Bai Yu's carriage.
"No! Don't! Don't kill me! Don't!"
Lu Chengfeng, who was suffering from high fever, was mumbling nonsense, as if he had dreamed of some terrible scene. His body was twitching uncontrollably and resisting desperately.
Bai Yu moved his fingers and tapped his acupuncture points deftly, and then he fell into a deep sleep, having a peaceful and sound sleep.
"Please don't worry, Master. He is just suffering from the cold and a few drinks, which is why he looks like this! It's nothing serious. He will be fine after a few days of rest!"
The royal doctor of Bei Duan Kingdom gave an explanation.
This night was endless.
Lu Chengfeng had a terrible dream. He began to dream about this dream intermittently recently, in which he was being hunted down over and over again.
In the dream, every time he ran to the end of the ten-mile street, under the corner of white walls and black tiles, his legs seemed to have taken root, and he could no longer move an inch. Seeing that the killer was about to catch up, the sword was full of energy.
, a woman's back flashed past, blocking the fatal sword with her weak chest. Every time he tried hard to see the woman's face clearly, but when he woke up, all he could feel was the heartbreaking pain in his heart.
The feeling of the dream was so real, so real that when I gave way to the wind, I thought I had traveled through time and was reborn again.
After waking up, he saw Bai Yu standing beside his bed. He couldn't help feeling disgusted and said coldly:
"What are you doing next to my bed! Where am I?"
"Brother Chengfeng has woken up! Great! Are you alive?
I'm sick! I saw that your forehead was very hot, so I brought you to my house! Don't worry! I checked with the imperial doctor and it's not serious! You only need to rest in my house for a few days and you will be fine!"
Bai Yu rubbed his sleepy eyes and smiled happily.
"What's the big deal about something as small as a cold or a fever? Since you said it's no big deal, I'll take my leave now! Thank you for taking care of me!"
Lu Chengfeng sat up from the couch, lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed and go out.
"It's raining and snowing outside, and the cold wind is blowing. Brother Chengfeng, you'd better rest for a while! Come here! Take good care of me! If anything goes wrong, you're the only one to ask!"
Bai Yu comforted him and gave serious instructions to a few servants taking care of Lu Chengfeng.
"I don't need your North End pity!"
Lu Chengfeng didn't appreciate it, and his tone was still cold.
Suddenly, he turned around again, stared into Bai Yu's eyes, and asked with anger:
"I think it's true that you want to put me under house arrest for your father! Stop being so hypocritical! Since I, Lu Chengfeng, am willing to be a hostage, I won't abandon Dajing and run away!"
"Brother Chengfeng really misunderstood my good intentions!"
Bai Yu couldn't argue.
"By the way, I have some good news for you! There will be a truce between Beiduan and Dajing soon!"
Bai Yu looked at Lu Chengfeng's cold but listless face, it was obvious that he was losing weight day by day, and said hurriedly.
"Really? Is there really a truce? How could your father be willing to turn the conflict into friendship? Are you lying to me?"
Lu Chengfeng's ashen face finally had a breath of life, but he was still filled with grudges and doubts as he asked.
"Of course our young master didn't lie to you! The letter of alliance has been sent to you, Jingguo! You don't know, you have been sleeping in a daze for the past few days. Our young master has really worked hard to convince your father, and he has to take good care of you.
!But you, huh! You are so kind and treat me like a fool!"
One of Bai Yu's personal maids couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily.
"Really? I blamed you wrongly!"
Lu Chengfeng glanced at Bai Yu, who had a depressed look on his face, and saw him nodding. Then he finally let go of his grudge, and said with a slight movement of the corners of his lips:
Chapter completed!
