Gong Yueyue never knew that her name was so famous.
"She is Mrs. Jiuhua?"
"Who is Mrs. Jiuhua?"
"Everyone is very strange, aren't they?" Han Jingliang turned his head and glanced at the curious faces: "Yes, in this world of kings and bandits, who can still remember a country that has perished?"
"Perish?"
"This woman was once the beloved concubine of the Dade Emperor. Because of her, her father was promoted to three ranks overnight, from a young minister to the prime minister of a country. But so what? He still couldn't escape the fate of defeat.
"
Gong Yueyue looked at him steadily, her hands couldn't help but grasp her skirt tightly - was that man, the man who opened her old scars with blood in front of everyone, really the man she once loved?
?
He once said that he would use all his strength to protect her and prevent her from any harm. He once said, Qiong'er, believe in her, no matter what happens, I will be by your side.
Are all those sweet words false?
The light in his eyes was so cold that it made her tremble.
"Zhao Changyuan, are you still willing to marry such a woman?"
"I do." Zhao Changyuan's loud voice reached the sky: "Han Jingliang, do you know what kind of love is true love?"
"I don't know!" Han Jingliang also raised his voice: "Maybe this woman will bring you bad luck, or even destroy everything for you. Are you willing to do that?"
"I do." Zhao Changyuan did not hesitate at all: "Han Jingliang heard clearly, today, Gong Yueyue and I will make a vow to live and die together in this temple. From now on, no matter what happens,
, I will always be by her side!"
There was silence between heaven and earth.
"What about you?" Han Jingliang turned to look at Gong Yueyue again: "Gong Yueyue, tell me, do you feel the same way? Don't you regret it either?"
Gong Yueyue was silent for a long time, looking at the young man.
"Duo'er." Zhao Changyuan approached her and touched her arm.
"I think I want to end things with him."
"Finished?"
"Well - after all, there is indeed a dispute between me and him."
"Then how do you plan to end it?"
"Can you please ask him to come on stage and I can explain those things clearly in front of you, okay?"
"That's fine." Zhao Changyuan nodded: "Stop all his thoughts and save him from bothering him again in the future."
After Zhao Changyuan finished speaking, he shouted loudly: "Han Jingliang, do you dare to come close?"
"Why not?" After Han Jingliang said this, he flicked his sleeves and strode towards the temple gate, climbed the steps until he was in front of her.
It seemed that two months had passed since they said goodbye that day. Looking at him now, there was a hint of desolation between his eyebrows, which made her heart ache.
"Achen, between us..."
"I just want to ask you one thing." Ah Chen looked at her and smiled suddenly. The smile was something she had never seen before.
"?"
"If I die today, will you regret it?"
"What?"
Before Gong Yueyue finished speaking, she suddenly heard the rapid sound of horse hooves, and then, countless cavalry came from all directions, and in a moment the entire temple was surrounded by water.
This, what's going on?
She couldn't help turning her head to look at Zhao Changyuan, but she saw that he also looked confused.
One row of black barbarian soldiers held shields and the other held bows, surrounding Han Jingliang. Their bright arrow points were all pointed at him.
"don't want!"
Gong Yueyue couldn't help shouting and wanted to rush towards him, but Zhao Changyuan pulled her back: "What are you going to do?"
"No, they can't!"
"Things are not that simple." Zhao Changyuan said with a cold face: "Please be quiet first!"
"What?" Zhao Changyuan and Gong Yueyue were both startled, and couldn't help turning their heads to look at Ah Chen.
But he described it as the same, noncommittal.
"Achen." Gong Yueyue's voice was trembling: "You, you really did that?"
"As the saying goes, soldiers never tire of deceit. In these troubled times, even if it is me who does it, it doesn't mean anything. It's just that everyone is their own master."
Zhao Changyuan's eyes were slightly cold, but then he quickly calmed down: "Han Jingchen, so you come to Heiyi not for Qiong'er?"
He looked into Han Jingliang's dark eyes and suddenly felt a shock: "No! Brother, quickly turn around and go to King Chunyang's tent!"
Chunyang King’s tent?
Zhao Tian was also stunned, but he did not panic at all. Instead, he raised his voice and said: "Brother Wang, I understand what you mean, but you don't have to worry. He is here anyway and can't go anywhere. Let's deal with him first, and then we can
It's the same when I go back to Chunyang."
Zhao Changyuan's eyes sank slightly and he glanced sideways at Gong Yueyue.
Gong Yueyue hung her hands by her side, tightly grasping the hem of her skirt. She was completely unexpected by the unpredictable situation in front of her.
What she couldn't understand even more was that in this crisis-ridden moment, the person who should be the most nervous was still standing there as if nothing had happened.
Obviously, they were only a few steps away, but Gong Yueyue felt as if the sky was vast. She suddenly couldn't figure out what he was thinking in his heart.
She didn't want to think about the worst, because that was the person she once loved, and she would rather choose to believe it.
Achen turned his head and looked beyond the crowd, directly into her eyes. His dark eyes exuded a magical power, attracting her to walk towards him, and this time, Zhao Changyuan did not stop him.
She finally walked up to him, looked up at him, and said in a hoarse voice, "Ah Chen."
"Long time no see." Ah Chen's eyes were warm, without the alienation or aloofness just now. He raised his hand and gently caressed Gong Yueyue's cheek: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine...why did you come here? Why?"
"What if I said..." Just as he uttered these four words, an arrow suddenly hit him like a meteor and shot straight into his back.
"...It's because...you are here." He struggled to spit out the last five words, and fell to the ground with a smile on his face.
"No!" Gong Yueyue screamed and rushed towards him, trying to help him up. Her palms were wet and greasy, and it was his blood that stained her palms red.
"Ah Chen! Ah Chen!" Gong Yueyue yelled crazily, and her cold reason finally collapsed.
"Qiong'er!" Zhao Changyuan rushed over and tried to pull her away, but he heard her yell: "Get away!"
Zhao Changyuan was stunned, his outstretched hand froze in the air and never reached back.
"I thought." Gong Yueyue hugged Ah Chen tightly, letting tears soak into her eyes: "I thought that even without me, you would continue to live well, live well, and... other women, even if I
I hate you, but I never want you to die, you know?"
Ah Chen lay in her arms, silently, as if he had fallen asleep.
Whoosh——
Another arrow flew towards Gong Yueyue's throat, and with a sudden "dang" sound, Zhao Changyuan knocked it down.
"Brother, what are you doing? Do you want to force me to take action against you?"
"If you keep this woman, she will be a disaster sooner or later. It's better to ask your elder brother to get rid of her for you to avoid trouble in the future!"
"This has nothing to do with you!" Zhao Changyuan's eyes flashed with fire: "Brother, when will it be your turn to take care of my affairs?"
"Okay, I don't care about your business, but I want to take this man away. Even if he dies, I will tie his body in the square and let everyone see what will happen if they dare to invade me, Hei Yi."
What an end!"
"No, you are not allowed to take him away!" Gong Yueyue protected Ah Chen tightly and did not allow anyone to get close to him.
Zhao Changyuan frowned tightly. Of course he didn't care about Ah Chen, but he had to worry about Gong Yueyue's feelings. However, it was impossible for him to fall out with his brother because of his love rival.
Therefore, in the face of such a crisis, Gong Yueyue could not ask him for help. She just pulled out the hairpin from her head and held it against her throat, with a stubborn light in her eyes: "Whoever comes one step closer, I will kill me."
I will go to hell with Han Jingliang!"
"Brother!" Zhao Changyuan took two steps forward: "Order your people to withdraw from Luo Xuancheng immediately!"
"Third brother!" Zhao Tian's voice immediately rose an octave: "Are you so stupid? If you let him go today, he will definitely become a serious problem for me, Hei Yi. Do you know that in the Eastern Yuan Dynasty,
There are less than five people in the country who can command millions of troops, and this person’s talent is the best among the five, so why are you so stubborn?”
Zhao Changyuan closed his eyes: "I understand everything that brother said, but I still decided to do this."
"Okay." Zhao Tian's tone softened slightly: "But today's matter is decided by the king himself. If I stop the army at this time, I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain in front of the king, right?"
"I will take charge of the crime before your Majesty arrives. I just ask my brother to lead the troops and leave."
"Okay." Zhao Tian finally nodded, raised his hand and waved: "Throw it!"
In just a blink of an eye, all the black barbarian cavalry turned around and left quickly.
"Duo'er." Zhao Changyuan then walked up to Gong Yueyue, squatted down and looked at her deeply: "They are all gone, can you rest assured now? Can we continue the wedding?"
wedding?
Gong Yueyue looked at her bright wedding dress, and then at Ah Chen who was lying unconscious in her arms, looking confused.
"I will have someone take good care of him, don't worry."
"No." Gong Yueyue shook her head subconsciously, but hugged Ah Chen even harder: "I want to take care of him myself."
"What do you mean?" Ah Chen's face immediately turned ugly: "You don't believe me?"
"I, I don't trust anyone here." After saying that, she struggled to stand up, trying to use her thin body to lift Ah Chen and carry Han Jingliang away.
Zhao Changyuan looked at her steadily, neither helping nor stopping her. He just looked at his bride, carrying his love rival on his back, and walked with difficulty down the stone steps.
On both sides of the long street, countless people looked up. They originally wanted to watch a lively wedding, but what they expected was such a ridiculous ending. (To be continued)
