Chapter 142 Valued Head

After nearly half a year of getting along with each other, coupled with the experience of living and dying together, although Xiao Linglong dares not say that she has fully understood Chu Tianya's personality, she has a little understanding of his personality characteristics.

Generally speaking, words can better reflect a person's essence than behavior.

The personality imprint of Chu Tianya runs through the beginning and end of the whole Battle of Taiyuan. Xiao Linglong believes that there is a rebellious trait of "not willing to give in" and "dare to go against" in Chu Tianya's nature, which is different from other Han people in the Central Plains he knows.

In order to be a small citizen of the market who has been mediocrely taught by Confucianism, has always been submissive by nature, and is willing to be a Taiping dog. At first, Chu Tianya can leave, completely ignored the Taiyuan crisis and the invasion of Jv.

is the character of Chu Tianya, which determines his series of actions - he is more willing to control his fate, rather than throwing his fate to the so-called God's will or at the mercy of others. In other words, he is not a person who flinched in the face of difficulties and challenges.

Khitan used to be an immediate nation. Although they have been influenced by the Central Plains culture for a hundred years since the founding of their country, they still retain many customs and personalities of their ancestors, which is a metaphor for respecting warriors.

Xiao Linglong has seen too many strong men who pull out the mountain and carry the tripod, and the fierce generals who seize the flag. Even if she is in trouble now, she still follows such two attendants.

Therefore, her eyes are higher than the top.

Her definition of "warrior" has long surpassed ordinary people's views on this - only a tough man who is really fearless of all the challenges in life and has a spirit of perseverance is worthy of the word "warrior"!

Therefore, although Chu Tianya's current martial arts are still very bad and she can't beat her, she is deeply attracted to her.

Despite this, Xiao Linglong still wanted to test him.

"Now it seems that your status in Qixingzhai is more embarrassing." Xiao Linglong said, "Why don't you and Meng De leave here for a while? When the wind calms down, you can come back."

"If I want to leave, no one can keep me; if I leave, I will never come back." Chu Tianya smiled, but he spoke very well.

Xiao Linglong suddenly had nothing to say. She had long expected that Chu Tianya would answer like this. In the face of big and wrong, he will never squail or be emotional.

The atmosphere between the two became a little strange and delicate because of Xiao Linglong's temptation. It seems that Chu Tianya is waiting for Xiao Linglong to make a position, while Xiao Linglong is waiting for Chu Tianya to make an invitation or make a promise.

In fact, what the two people think coincidentally comes down to one thing - if they leave, will they be together?

From ancient times to the present, both men and women hope that their feelings and careers can fly together, and Xiao Linglong and Chu Tianya are naturally no exception.

Once Xiao Linglong thought that if Chu Tianya went up the mountain after the Battle of Taiyuan, there might be a real "start" between the two of them. She had even laid some bedding for him in the cottage in advance. Now, everyone knows that Princess Xiao and Chu Tianya, who is newly on the mountain, has a "relationship with bandits." Shallow." However, Xu Han's sudden disturbance disrupted her overall plan. If Chu Tianya leaves at this time, she doesn't know whether she should follow this hazy relationship or stay and continue to stick to her ethereal ideals and struggle for the distant restoration of the country.

Once these two things were not contradictory, and Xiao Linglong even thought that Chu Tianya might help him achieve that ideal. Because so far, she has only seen the power of "convering decay into magic" from Chu Tianya. Even if this is an unrealistic luxury, at least she still has enough time to manage and brew.

But now Chu Tianya is facing a crisis and choice. When he stood at the crossroads, Xiao Linglong was surprised to find that she was also facing a choice.

Although she knew that she had completely trusted the man in front of her who had shed blood and tears for him, she, who had experienced trauma, had long been no longer superstitious about the so-called feelings!

Emotions can be said to be the strongest link in the world, and also the weakest link. Whether it is love, friendship or love, it is difficult to beat the years and the secular world, and it is more likely to go to extremes because of love and hate.

Xiao Linglong, who was born in the royal family and has experienced ups and downs, has really seen too many such cases.

In fact, Chu Tianya also knows in his heart that Xiao Linglong is waiting for his affirmative promise. Maybe now, as long as he says, "Come with me", Xiao Linglong will agree without hesitation.

Although there are few women as wise and calm as Xiao Linglong, she is also a woman after all. Her nature determines that she is the least defensive in the face of emotional offensive.

But Chu Tianya didn't say anything - is it necessary for her to give up everything in front of her, forget the hatred of the country and family to abandon her ideals and pursuits, and wander with her?

Chu Tianya is not qualified for that. The cruelty of troubled times will not allow anyone to interpret the romance in fairy tales.

......

The two sat silently against each other for nearly half an hour, but they didn't say another word. The strange silence in front of us is like the tranquility before the storm, which is depressing and suffocating.

Later, Xiao Linglong felt that she was not so much waiting for Chu Tianya's affirmative promise as that she was waiting for her to defeat the demon in her heart.

But Chu Tianya's heart is much clearer than she thinks: in any case, Xiao Linglong will no longer be in danger. Similar to the bloody blood in the Battle of Taiyuan, it is not as beautiful as the story says. Even in the name of love, you can't commit selfishness and childishness - peace is more important than anything else.

"It's late at night. I'll go back and have a rest." After a long time, Xiao Linglong stood up and said, "No matter what kind of decision you make, let me know before you implement it."

"I will." Chu Tianya looked into her eyes and smiled and nodded.

Xiao Linglong left.

Chu Tianya breathed a long breath.

"Maybe Xiao Linglong knows me better than I thought." Chu Tianya lay down on **, pillowing her arm and thinking, "She knows what I'm thinking and that I may have an amazing move next. What I have done will inevitably have a huge impact on her... Well, if the people in Qixingzhai don't come to explain the situation to me tomorrow, I will ask myself! It's better to break this layer of window paper earlier than watching the sky to eat and sit and wait for death!"

The next morning, Chu Tianya was woken up by a roar of training soldiers and horses from the Dayuping of Kaiyang Palace. He got up and opened the window. It turned out that Meng De and Ma Yan were leading the newly gathered Xishan Ding Zhuang to practice shooting.

At this time, a figure shook to the window of Chu Tianya, and the cold sky shook a black fracture fan and smiled, "Brother Chu, did you sleep well?"

"Zing Qian? It's just right." Chu Tianya immediately opened the door.

Bai Shu went into the house, looked around, and said with a smile, "The cottage is simple. Brother Chu is wronged."

"It is a supreme enjoyment for me, a prisoner who escaped from hunger, to be able to eat enough food." Chu Tianya smiled and joked, "Seriously, Qixing Village is quite good."

"Then Brother Chu, stay!" Bai Qi took the opportunity to say, pointing to the ** topic impartially.

Chu Tianya raised his eyelids and looked into his eyes. The white-haired fox's eyes were full of deviousness, but he did not have any hidden motives. Obviously, his intention was clearly prepared.

Chu Tianya didn't go around in circles. He asked Bai Zhi to sit down, and he came straight to the point and said, "Jingqian came to me early in the morning. Must he have some advice?"

"I was supposed to come to visit Brother Chu last night, but someone took the lead." Bai Yu smiled and said, "The little student is still interesting, so he obediently avoided it."

"Then you came to line up early in the morning today?" Chu Tianya laughed.

"It's true!" Bai Shu shook his fan and smiled.

Chu Tianya nodded and said to himself that Bai Xu, the messenger who had just sent away Xu Han yesterday, was ready to come to talk to me. It seems that they did not intend to hide anything from me.

"Think about it, Brother Chu also knows something that happened in the cottage yesterday. I don't make a cover." Bai Xu said, "The purpose of my life here is very simple. It is to dispel Brother Chu's concerns. I hope I don't have any grudges and doubts because I will meet the messengers of the court."

"In this way, Jingqian will tell me the details of yesterday's meeting?" Chu Tianya said.

"There is nothing I can't say to Brother Chu." Bai Shu smiled very calmly, "In fact, everything we do is to save the father and son of the Wang family. You and I are both understanding people. There is no need for Xiaosheng to play tricks in front of Brother Chu. At present, Qixingzhai is facing a major choice, or we have always been facing this choice - at present, the matter of the Wang family is just an inducement.

"What do you say?" Chu Tianya asked.

"There are only two ways to save the father and son of the Wang family. One is to seize it by force, and the other is to negotiate peacefully. Bai Shu did not go around the curve and said bluntly, "The former is not very desirable. Because the strength of the soldiers and horses in Xu Han's hand is not weak after all. If we want to fight directly with the imperial court, Qixingzhai is not that kind of strength now. Moreover, there are still foreign enemies now, how can we fall into a civil war? Therefore, we can only negotiate peacefully with Xu Han. But as Xu Han, he had no reason to look at Qixingzhai, let alone sit down and negotiate with us. Unless..."

"Unless Qixingzhai accepts Zhao'an and joins Xu Han's command?" Chu Tianya said.

Baixu nodded, "So, this inevitably touches the pain of Qixingzhai - whether to accept Zhao'an, there has always been a lot of controversy in the cottage. This is the reason why we haven't replied to Brother Chu for a long time, and it is also the motivation for us to send someone to contact Xu Han first and explore his style. Today, Xiaosheng made it clear to Brother Chu, hoping that Brother Chu would not have any misunderstanding about us.

Chu Tianya smiled indifferently, "Qixingzhai is bright and frank, and Chu is not a small belly, so naturally there will be no misunderstanding."

"That's the best." Bai Xu nodded, "Actually, Xu Han's messenger went up the mountain yesterday, half of which was invited by us and half by himself. Coincidentally, Xu Han thought of this almost at the same time as us. Therefore, even if we don't send someone to contact him, he will take the initiative to send someone up the mountain to recruit him.

"Does this mean that heroes have similar opinions, or do they have their own ghosts?" Chu Tianya laughed.

"It seems that the latter is more appropriate." Bai Xu was able to make a joke. He said, "Our intention is obviously to test Xu Han's attitude to see if there is any possibility of peaceful negotiation to save the Wang family and his son; Xu Han's good calculation is also very loud. In the battle of Huanglonggu, Taihang Zhuzhai played a role. If Xu Han could recruit such a group of people under his command, the officials would certainly appreciate him. In addition, Xu Han's other purpose is to capture Brother Chu and go back to the court. According to the detective and Xiaosheng's own speculation, Xu Han seemed to have checked some things that Brother Chu had done in Taiyuan. He seemed to have realized that Brother Chu was the key figure in leading the battle of Taiyuan, which was far more important than the king he got in his hand.

"Thank you for telling me so much." Chu Tianya nodded and said with a smile, "So, Xu Han has to catch me and go back to work?"

"Indeed."

"If Qixingzhai doesn't hand over, not only can it not save the king, but also can't recruit peace, but it will also be a crime of hiding a repeater?" Chu Tianya said again.

Bai Shu shook his fan and nodded and smiled, "It seems that it is true."

"What about actually?" Chu Tianya asked the core question.

Baixu frowned, "At present, I can only guarantee two points. First, we will find a way to save Wang; second, we will not hand over Brother Chu to Xu Han.

"This sounds contradictory." Chu Tianya picked the corners of his mouth and said, "Can you say that you can have both fish and bear paws?"

Bai Xun frowned, and his eyes became dark and grim.

His expression told Chu Tianya that at least at present, he has not thought of a good way to be both perfect.

"I didn't expect that someone would become so valuable one day." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "If Xu Han can take me to Tokyo for his work, then his trip will be perfect, and his promotion and fortune will be just around the corner. If you find out my 'true murderer', Wang and his son may not be in risk of life; Qixingzhai can successfully accept Zhao'an, from a Xiangmashan thief to a really respected one. The anti-Jin Yijun, the leaders have a bright future. In addition, the Song Dynasty may be in urgent need to hand over me, a war criminal, to calm the anger of the female real women and redeem a piece of peace. Isn't this how Zhang Jue's head was given to the Jurchens in Pingzhou, the infamous 'Hanshou Jingbian' incident? Compared with Zhang Jue, a great warlord who is on the side of the army and horses, Chu's weight is far worse - in this way, Chu Tianya is still not dead, which is simply unreasonable!"
