The King of Wu left Wu Capital, and many of the king's ministers and people also left, but Wang Xian felt that there were no fewer people here at all?
On a hot day, the trees on the roadside were wilted, but there was still an endless stream of people on the road. Wang Xian had to slow down his horse riding speed.
But after a short delay, the general disappeared without knowing where he was.
Fortunately, not too far away, he saw a group of men and horses galloping from the front. The leader was General Iron Mask. Wang Xian rushed to meet him and complained: "General, where have you been?"
The Iron-faced General seemed to be distracted by his question: "Yes, where have I been?"
Huh? Wang Xian was puzzled and looked at General Iron Mask. He could never see the seven emotions on his face covered by the iron mask, and his hoarse old voice was empty of all six desires.
The Iron-faced General ignored Wang Xian's inspection. Although he had already moved away from the people behind him, his voice seemed to still linger in his ears——
"General, you also said that you want a daughter as smart and lovely as me——"
"General, you and my father have known each other for decades and can be regarded as old friends. Now that my father has been discharged and returned to the field, you will be my elder from now on and can be called a foster father - "
The iron-faced general shook his head and drove away these incomprehensible words. What was Chen Danzhu thinking? How could he become her father's good friend? He and her father were obviously enemies - and they actually wanted to recognize him as their adoptive father. What is this called?
?This is the legendary recognition of a thief as a father, right?
This Chen Danzhu——
That's not quite right.
The Iron-faced General thought about the girl's series of gestures, first crying, then angry, then sad and happy, and then thinking about the series of things he agreed to -
Was he fooled?
In fact, he really didn't go to say goodbye to Chen Liehu, he just thought of this and came over to take a look. In fact, he didn't have any emotions such as joy, sadness, etc. about Chen Liehu's departure. As Chen Danzhu said, victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists.
.
These battles only focus on victory and defeat, leaving the ethical right and wrong to be written down in the history books.
Then I saw this girl who had been abandoned by her father and stayed alone in Wudu, feeling sad and dejected——
She was devastated, why did he agree to a bunch of conditions in the end? Saying that Chen Danzhu had meritorious service, saying that he would not pursue Chen Liehu's crime, and even saying hello to those who stayed behind in Xijing - what does this have to do with him!
The Iron-faced General cursed in his heart. Was he fooled? Was Chen Danzhu playing the same trick as against the King of Wu?
Chen Danzhu was sitting in the car at this time, slowly heading towards Peach Blossom Mountain.
Ah Tian washed the tea cup again and again. Although General Iron Mask did not use it to drink tea, he had taken it with his hand after all. The remaining mountain spring water was only enough to brew a cup of tea.
"Miss, let's have some tea." She handed it over and said with concern, "I've been talking for a long time."
She was crying, complaining, indignant and begging - she was dumbfounded, the young lady must be exhausted.
Chen Danzhu was leaning on the soft pillow, holding a round fan and swinging it gently to dispel the sultry heat of summer. The previous sadness and joy were no longer on his face, his eyes were clear, and the corners of his mouth were curved.
Seeing her appearance, A Tian felt a little dazed. If she hadn't been by her side all the time, she would have thought that the young lady was a different person. The moment after the Iron-faced General led his men and galloped away, the young lady's cowardice, sadness and flattery disappeared.
Light - well, just like the young lady who had just bid farewell to her master and got up, turned around and saw the Iron Masked General coming, and her originally calm expression immediately turned into cowardice and sadness.
The lady is changing her face faster and faster now, A Tian thought to herself.
Chen Danzhu took the tea and drank it slowly. Thinking of what happened before, he hummed softly.
She didn't care whether General Iron Mask came here to say goodbye to her father, to celebrate the fall of an old enemy, or to lament the past.
He came at a great time, and she was worried about the safety of her family and others when they returned to Xijing.
She has done so many evil things, she is a evil person. Evil people want to take credit, want to please and seek benefits for their family, and evil people of course also want to find a backer——
When the woman wanted to kill her, Mo Lin, who was sent by General Iron Mask, stopped her with just one word.
Obviously, General Iron Mask is currently her most reliable backer.
Alas, she is such a poor person who was separated from her family and abandoned by her father because of the imperial court. How could the Iron-faced General not bear to take care of her?
As for why the Sixth Prince was mentioned in Xijing——
She didn't care whether the sixth prince was kind-hearted or young and ignorant. Of course, it was because she knew that the sixth prince had always stayed in Xijing.
In the future, Wudu will become the capital, and the royal family and relatives will all move here. The sixth prince will be the most powerful person in Xijing. If he is willing to let his father go, the family will be stable in Xijing.
Now it depends on the relationship between General Iron Mask and the Sixth Prince.
Anyway, after doing these two things, Chen Danzhu felt a little calmer. Chen Danzhu changed his position and leaned on the soft pillow, watching the scenery slowly passing by outside the car.
Everything was familiar and strange at the same time. What was familiar was that Wudu was about to become the capital, but what was strange was that it was different from the ten years she had experienced. She didn't know what the future would be like or what was waiting for her ahead.
If the King of Wu did not die and became the King of Zhou, there would be no remnants of the King of Wu, the land of Wu could enjoy peace, and the court would be less turbulent.
Chen Danzhu walked along the mountain road towards the mountain. The muffled summer wind blew by, and several muffled thunders sounded in the sky. She stopped and looked into the distance with A Tian, and saw a dark cloud coming from the horizon.
"Miss, it's going to rain." A Tian said.
Chen Danzhu hummed: "Go back quickly." Then he asked, "Do we have enough food in the temple?"
Ah Tiantian nodded: "Don't worry, miss. Since I learned that the master and the others left, I bought a lot of things to store, enough for us to eat for a while."
Chen Danzhu nodded with a smile: "Let's go back, close the door and take shelter from the wind and rain."
Ah Tian responded happily, and she and Chen Danzhu walked happily towards the small Taoist temple hidden in the dense forest on the mountainside.
Zhu Lin was thinking to himself, how could Ah Tian have the nerve to say that she bought so many things? He obviously paid for them. Alas, Zhu Lin touched his money bag and found that not only was it empty this month, but his salary for the next month was also empty.
And it seems that Miss Chen Danzhu cannot be rich anymore. Her family has moved away, and she is left alone and penniless——
What will happen after this? Will he support them?
He suddenly thought of the scary scene just now, where Miss Danzhu was chasing after the general to recognize him as her adoptive father - well, can he ask the general for money?
If Miss Danzhu becomes the adoptive daughter of a general, it would be natural for the adoptive father to provide money for his daughter, right?
.....
.....
After a thunderclap, heavy raindrops fell. Wang Xian stood by the window of the main hall and laughed wildly, almost drowning out the sound of rain and thunder outside.
"I didn't expect you, General, to be like this." He laughed without the manners of a scholar, and burst into tears as he laughed, "I've said before, this girl is terrible -"
He looked at the iron-faced general sitting beside him and gloated again.
"Is this retribution? You also have today, are you scared?"
It was raining heavily and the room was dark. The iron-faced general took off his armor and helmet, and wrapped himself in gray robes. His gray hair was scattered, and the iron-faced general became gray. He sat on the ground, looking like a gray eagle.
He finally couldn't hold back and told Wang Xian what happened today. After all, this was a situation that had never happened before. Unexpectedly, Wang Xian was about to laugh to death after hearing this——
The Iron-faced General glanced at him: "Isn't it just to be a father? What's so scary?"
Wang Xian clicked his tongue twice: "Now that I have become a father, this girl will use you as a sword when she does bad things, and she will use you as a shield when she causes trouble. She even dares to harm her own father -"
It's even more fun to harm your godfather.
Wang Xian raised his eyebrows again: "This girl looks delicate and weak, but her heart is cruel and vicious."
I won’t talk about the things about King Wu and Wu Chen, including a concubine. I’ll just talk about today’s conversation with the Iron-faced General. He was crying and fussing with reason and integrity. He could advance, attack, retreat or defend. The general was stunned -
—Hmph, Wang Xian complained again, this is not the first time.
The iron-faced general said calmly: "What kind of harm can it cause? You are a person who scares yourself all day long."
Wang Xian cheered: "Your Majesty is moving the capital, and Wudu will be very lively by then. There will be more people, and there will be more things to do. With this girl here, I always feel that it will be very troublesome."
The Iron-faced General hummed, "I wonder what the trouble is."
Why did he sound so expectant? Wang Xian was annoyed. He shouldn't have said that. How could he have forgotten that someone is also a scourge in the eyes of others?
A guard came in at this time, and the ground was soaked with rain. He said to the iron-faced general: "According to your instructions, Miss Yao has returned to Xijing."
Before General Iron Mask spoke, Wang Xian said: "This is a trouble."
