Song Xiao

Chapter 222 True temperament, hypocrite

The nobleman came and stood there without saying a word. His little face was tight and there was resentment in his eyes.

"It's getting cold, do you still wear so little? Look at you, your face is frozen." Chu Tianya came forward to pinch her face. She turned her head and said coldly, "What do you want me to tell you?"

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Call the rosefinch, bring your bird, and go out with me."

The nobleman blinked his eyes, "Where are you going and what are you doing?"

"Do I have to give you any orders and still need to explain it to you?" Chu Tianya said, "Or, you don't want to go out with me?"

The nobleman looked at Chu Tianya with hatred and pouted, "What's so fierce! Let's go."

"Go, prepare a horse." Chu Tianya pouted at Xiaofei, "Others don't have to follow, just the three of us go out for a walk."

Xiaofei held his fist and said, "Master, let's Tang Ang take Hu Ben with him?" In extraordinary times, it may be dangerous.

"It's all our territory within a hundred miles. I don't go far. What's the danger?" Chu Tianya said, "Don't talk nonsense, go and do it!"

"Yes!"

Soon, Chu Tianya and his party rode a horse, put on a thick coat and a snow cloak, left the station of Xiaocangshan Shuai Camp, and looked down the mountain.

Uncle He brought Xiaofei and said, "Say, what is the lord doing?"

"How dare the villain ask about the master?" Xiaofei whispered, "You have also seen the old man. The lord is accompanied by rosefinch and nobles, and he also told him not to let others follow..."

He Bo nodded thoughtfully, "Where's the princess?"

"I just took the Yelu brothers and Ada to lead the Yecha Army and the Khitan cavalry to the cavalry station of Jiao Wentong." Xiaofei said, "He said he was going to train. I don't think he will be able to come back for a while."

"No wonder..." Uncle He touched the messy gray beard on his chin and smiled, "Terde on, don't mention the lord's business to the princess today!" If the princess comes back and asks, he will say that the lord has gone out to inspect the camp!"

"Yes!"

"Hey hey, the old man is going to see the fun!" As soon as the words fell, Uncle He put his crutch on the ground. He ran on the snow like an eagle, chasing a string of horseshoe prints left by Chu Tianya and others, running faster than a rabbit.

Xiaofei's eyes widened, "Stepping on the snow without trace, it turns out that there is really such supreme light skill in the world! - Humph, hum, the old man is not kind, and he still kept the work at the bottom of the box and refused to teach me. Now I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Sum" suddenly, the old man ran back again, and the crutch pointed to Xiao Fei and scolded, "What are you muttering, stinky boy?"

"Ah?" Xiaofei had been stunned for a long time, "No, no!"

With a "pop", the crutch knocked on Xiaofei's head. The old man scolded, "The old man who can teach you has taught you. If you don't practice well, you will you know to mutter here? You're so promising! - Practice it. After 30 years of practice, it's good that you can have the old man!"

"Oh," the old man ran away again.

Xiaofei touched a bag big as a goose egg on his head and wanted to cry. He shook his mouth and did not dare to scold it. He was afraid that Uncle He, who had better ears than cats, would hear it again.

Chu Tianya took the nobleman and the rosefinch down Xiaocang Mountain all the way to the south, and ran for nearly half an hour before stopping.

has arrived at the Fenshui River.

This is a hometown. At this time last year, it left a good memory of Chu Tianya and Xiao Linglong.

Chu Tianya got off and off the hillside where the two stopped at the beginning, and stood there looking far to the north, silent for a long time.

The wind and snow are still the same, and the sky is vast.

The rosefinch and the nobleman stood behind him and did not interrupt. The three horses stamped their hooves not far away, and their bodies were steaming.

Chu Tianya finally turned around, and the two women looked at him quietly.

"It's good. It looks good. It's worthy of the Qingwei that the old man** came out. This little wind and snow is not a big deal for you at all. Chu Tianya took two steps closer, stopped in front of the rosefinch, and reached out to take off the mask on her face.

The rosefinch stepped back and dodged. He didn't say anything, but just looked at him with wide eyes.

"Take it off." Chu Tianya said lightly, but it was a commanding tone.

The rosefinch had to take off the mask.

On the beautiful face, there is a cross scar that will never heal.

Chu Tianya stretched out his hand, touched her face, and gently stroked the scar.

"Do you regret it?"

"What do you think?" The rosefinch had no expression and asked calmly.

"I know you regret it, especially when you see Princess Xiao come back." Chu Tianya said, "In these days, the quietest person is you, and the person farthest away from me is also you."

"You're wrong. I've never regretted it." The rosefinch turned away, "As I said, I just want to be myself, not a slave of hatred and a victim of the struggle for power, and I don't want to live in the shadow of anyone. The current rosefinch is still the same as the rosefinch that waved a knife. I'm calm because I'm really as calm as water; I'm not far away from you, but you feel my distance because you don't put me close to your heart. This kind of thing should not be forced. So I'm calmer."

The nobleman standing aside sighed gently.

Bo of them looked at the nobleman, and the nobleman couldn't help taking a step back, "Sorry, I didn't mean to..."

"I should have said this." Chu Tianya did not blame her, and he sighed softly, "Suzinch, nobleman, you know what you mean to me; but I'm sorry, my heart has been stuffed with her, and there is no place for other women. I don't know what kind of mentality other men have. At least for now, I can't share my heart with a few women. I don't want to deceive you. Although now I can naturally accept that many other women are with me, sleeping in the same bed or night, I will only have Xiao Linglong in my heart.

The nobleman bit his lip, and his face was tight again. He stared at Chu Tianya with wide eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse. "So you don't want to have a bridal chamber with me?"

"It's a lie to say that you don't want to. Noble man, a woman like you can't be rejected by any man. Chu Tianya smiled and said, "If you just take what you need on the spot, I can feel at ease. But you have all given your feelings and sacrificed to me. Because of this, I don't want to abuse you."

"But I don't care!" The nobleman suddenly shouted, "I knew you had a beloved woman!" I don't care! I just want to be with you, that's enough.

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "I care."

The nobleman was stunned and looked at Chu Tianya, and tears came down. "Are you going to get rid of me?"

"You misunderstood. He didn't drive us away." The rosefinch said faintly, "She doesn't want to owe us and be a heartless man."

"Yes." Chu Tianya did not deny, "I can deceive the world and kill thousands of people, but the last thing I want to owe is love debt. You have paid a relatively tragic price for following me, and I have also thought about accepting you. But then I found out that I was really the kind of desperate. She is the only one in my heart, and I can't let go of any other woman except her. I'm afraid that you have hope, and then you can only reap disappointment. Therefore, I have to make it clear to you.

"It doesn't matter. I can wait." The nobleman sucked his nose and tried his best not to let tears flow down. "As long as you want, until you have my place in your heart."

Chu Tianya sighed, "If you do this, I will only feel more guilty."

"You are really different from other men." The rosefinch said this coldly.

Chu Tianya couldn't help laughing, "In fact, it's no different. I like all kinds of wine and color, and I want to be a beauty in my pocket. Men are all selfish. They all want to possess more women, especially beautiful women like you, but they don't want to pay too much emotion and take on too much responsibility. It's just that I can't afford too much truth. I'd rather you pretend to be to me, and then we don't owe each other. However, I already owe you too much, and I can't owe you any more."

"I don't care, I do!" The nobleman shouted, "Chu Tianya, you are really cheap! You are not happy that others are sincere to you, are you?

The rosefinch smiled faintly, "It's a good scold."

Chu Tianya smiled bitterly, "Well, it's really good to scold."

Then the three of them were silent, leaving the north wind whimpering with heavy snow.

not far away, the old man squatted behind a big snowdrift, rubbed his nose and muttered in his heart: What the hell, the heavy snow in the cold weather, running here to say something inexplicable? ...Young master, hurry up while the princess is not with you! The master is looking forward to the branches and leaves of the old Chu family under the ground. Can't you let each of them give birth to a nest for you? There is not so much trouble, really!

After a long time, the rosefinch suddenly said, "What on earth are you trying to say to us?"

The nobleman also came to his senses, "Yes, run far away and avoid all the eyes and ears, just to tell us this?"

"I have a top-secret military operation that requires the cooperation of both of you." Chu Tianya said, "If it's just the lord and his subordinates, I can order directly. But I know that the reason why you stay here is not to be a green guard. So before I say this plan, I want to make my true thoughts clear to you and give you a choice - whether you are willing to accept this task or not, I can't guarantee whether you will have a place in my heart in the future. That is to say, everything you do now may be in vain, and you may even sacrifice your lives.

Uncle He, who is not far away, couldn't help but be slightly stunned: It turns out that there is still this one! What does the young master want to do? How can you hide it from everyone, even me and Princess Xiao?

The nobleman nodded gently, "As I said, I can wait. If I can come back alive, I will continue to wait. Come on, what's the task?"

Chu Tianya looked at the rosefinch.

The rosefinch said indifferently, "You don't have to look at me like this. I only believe in my feelings and do what I am willing to do. If you can't trust me, don't say it. Everything else is nonsense."

"I want you to go back to the Golden Kingdom." Chu Tianya said.

Uncle He almost jumped out and scolded in his heart: Is the young master crazy?

The rosefinch and the noble are also stunned.

"Are you afraid?" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Forget it."

"You're not afraid. What am I afraid of?" The rosefinch also smiled and smiled lightly, "Do you want to be careful?"

The nobleman said in a hurry, "It doesn't work! Wanyan Zonghan saw us and killed him without saying a word! Well, it may also be... How do real women treat women? You know it without saying!"

"The rosefinch is right. I'm very afraid." Chu Tianya sighed, "As I said, men are selfish. He will not give up the women around him to anyone, whether he really likes them or not. Moreover, I'm also afraid that you will be discouraged and disappointed. You really turn to the State of Jin and stab me back. Therefore, I am also betting on a desperate gamble to make this decision.

"Are you taking everything you have and more than a hundred thousand lives to bet whether our two women are worthy of your trust?" Rosefinch Road.

The nobleman shuddered, "Are you... really so bold?"

Uncle He, who was not far away, shivered at the same time and scolded in his heart: It's really old and useless, and he's afraid of the cold!

"So I've made everything clear to you frankly, and you can choose not to do it." Chu Tianya said, "This is not an order, but a request."

Rosefinch took a deep breath, "I just want to ask you, what would you think if I slept with Wanyan Zonghan when I went back?"

The corners of Chu Tianya's eyes twitched a few times.

The nobleman hurriedly said, "Why do you say this?"

"No, I must ask." The rosefinch insisted.

"I don't know..." Chu Tianya's long breath avoided the eyes of the rosefinch.

"Okay, I did it." The rosefinch said firmly, "I don't know what I said about you."

Chu Tianya was stunned, and the nobleman was also stunned. Uncle He even had a strange expression at the corners of his mouth.

"I don't know what you said. The rosefinch will never let other men touch my finger." The rosefinch turned around and looked at the far north. "You can't believe it, but I can do it. Noble man, you don't have to follow me. I'll be alone.

"I won't go, and Qing'er won't follow us. How can you send back information to Brother Tianya?" The nobleman came up and took the rosefinch's elbow. "You used to be my big leader, and you will always be the irreplaceable elder sister in my heart. I listen to you. Just do what you want to do. I'll go with you - die together, live together! If we have to wait for him, we will wait together! If another man provokes us, we will kill him together; even if we want to draw a knife and wipe his neck, blood will have to flow into a pit!"

The rosefinch turned his head and looked at the nobleman, with a rare warm smile on his face.

Chu Tianya looked at them and didn't know what to say. I just feel that I owe more to these two women.

"Let's go and get ready." The rosefinch pulled the nobleman and went to lead the horse.

Chu Tianya really wanted to ask how they could win the trust of Wanyan Zonghan, especially the ghost fox Shi Liai, but when the words came to their mouths, they swallowed them back.

Because he knew that the rosefinch's wisdom was no worse than his; since she was so firm, she showed that she was confident that she could do it.

Two women got on the horse and punched Chu Tianya together.

Chu Tianya stood up straight and held his fist at them, "Remember to come back safe and sound!"

"Drive--"

"The old man protects the master, let's go!"

Uncle He was stunned and jumped out from behind the snowdrift. He was so happy.

Chu Tianya walked over with a sigh and said with a wry smile, "Sir, am I despicable and shameless?"

"No, you are much more upright than most of the superiors." He Bo looked at Chu Tianya seriously and said, "At least you don't cheat anyone's feelings. In fact, even if you cheat, you should. It is human's common for those who are in the upper position to give up the small and take the big. Not to mention two women, parents and brothers can give up when necessary.

Chu Tianya's face twitched a few times and turned to look at the vast distant mountains. "Why do I think that the more I will lose my nature if I sit in this master's seat for one more day?"

"Because you stand in a different position, the way you think about problems is different, and the ideals you pursue and follow are also different." He Bo said calmly in his hoarse voice, "There is a saying that people who do great things don't care about trivial things... Everyone can understand the truth; not everyone can really understand the truth."

"When I really understand, it means that I have lost a lot and owe a lot..." Chu Tianya sighed deeply, "I don't know whether it's right or wrong for me to do this. Maybe one day, I will regret it. But...who can give me a choice?"

"You have no choice. At this point, you are no longer you. You have too many responsibilities and missions. If you don't fulfill them, how high you stand, how miserable you fall. He Bo said, "In the past and now, all those who have achieved great things have abandoned the small and taken the big. Who hasn't come here like this? Li Shimin, the king of the Ming Dynasty, once forced his father to abdicate in Xuanwumen. Did he have this idea when he came out of his mother's womb? - Isn't it all because he had no other choice?

Listening to Uncle He's words, blowing the north wind, Chu Tianya burst into a chill from the bottom of his heart.

"Why did the rosefinch gladly take the order when he heard me reply 'I don't know'?" Chu Tianya said to herself, "Shouldn't I answer her that if she is with Wanyan Zonghan again, I will be sad, sad, self-blame and angry?"

"Young master, the rosefinch is smarter than you think. She knows more about men than men. Uncle He said, "You answered that you don't know, which proves the contradiction in your heart and that she has a weight in your heart. If you answer the latter... she really doesn't care!"

Chu Tianya raised his head and faced the wind, feeling that his eyes were tingling.

"Sir, I owe so much debt, how can I pay it back?"

Uncle He smiled and said, "Young master, you are still not cruel enough. Have you heard of the Three Kingdoms Review in Wasiri? Emperor Wei Wu once said that it is better to teach me to defeat the world than to let the world to defeat me - what a heart and domineering it is! Those who can achieve great things, who is not a great success, and who is not indebted to tens of millions of people? If you can't even afford this, you have to go home and be a valew, self-sufficient and no one owes anyone. However, in that case, you will be bullied and squeezed by others. Even Baozheng in the countryside can point to your nose and scold your ancestors for 18 generations - compared with the two, do you think it's better to be a hero like Wei Wu, or to be a houseman at home?

"You're right, you're right. Who is not a great success, and who is not indebted to tens of millions of people? It's better to teach me to betray the world..." Chu Tianya whispered to himself in a low voice, "Cao Cao said this sentence, so he was scolded as a traitor. In fact, he is a real person with a true temperament; it is far better than those hypocrites who hide this idea in their hearts.

"That's right." He Bo patted Chu Tianya on the shoulder with a smile, "Go back, young master. I know you feel bad... But there are more things waiting for you. You are a man, a man who wants to do a great career. It is inevitable to suffer a little grievance - what you have to do now is to make this grievance useless and make this concession valuable!"

Chu Tianya took a deep breath of the cold air on the banks of the Fenshui River and spit it out heavily.

"Okay, go back to Shuai Camp!!"
