Shendou Continent

Chapter 104 The Sad Past

After practicing martial arts, Lin You accompanied Liu Jia and sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard.After a while, the servant girl of the Hou's mansion took the charcoal stove and lit a fire for the two, and made a pot of hot tea.The two of them lit the fire and enjoyed the snow while drinking tea.

"I haven't apologized to you for causing you serious injuries." Liu Jia said while playing with the tea set in her hand.

"It's okay, as long as you're fine, besides, my injury is about to heal."

"Aren't you curious about me at all?"

"At first, I thought you had nothing to do with me, and I didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs. But it's different now. I'm very interested in your affairs, but I'm afraid that bringing up old things will affect your mood, so I didn't ask more. If you want to say, I think, don't ask me."

"Oh, really?" Liu Jia looked at him suspiciously, but there was a smile in the corner of her eyes, "Why are you suddenly interested in my affairs?"

"Tell me about you." Lin You interrupted with a smile.

"What do you want to know?"

"I will listen to what you say."

Liu Jia laughed when she heard this, and she was very charming when she laughed. I have to say that Liu Jia is still a very beautiful woman.Lin You also smiled slightly, but he didn't know what she was laughing at, nor what he was laughing at.However, a smile is a good way to resolve embarrassment.

"Although the people who beat you have been punished, they still obeyed orders. The person behind the scenes is Murong Lan, the current concubine of King Su. It's Murong Yue and Zhang Liping, who are behind the scenes."

"Why are they targeting you?"

"Because King Su."

"Is that the ruthless Lu 'beast' you mentioned?"

"Exactly!"

"Although our Hou Mansion has fallen, we are still aristocrats, and we still have opportunities to get in touch with the children of the royal family. Five years ago, I met him at the Shangyuan of the Imperial Palace. His outstanding appearance and noble temperament deeply attracted me. Maybe I am the same as him." Speaking of the past, Liu Jia's eyes still shone brightly, obviously this relationship is still unforgettable.

"After Shangyuan met, we fell in love, and then we met secretly. I thought he was the one I was destined for. When we went out in the countryside, we made a vow to Xu Heshan, saying 'the mountain has no edge, Heaven and earth are united, and you dare to break with the king.' It’s ridiculous to think about it now.” Liu Jia continued, “It’s only my fault that I believed his lies when I was young.” When he said this, Liu Jia His face had visibly cooled down.

"Our matter is not a secret in Xu Jing, and it's my fault that I acted carelessly, so that I was passive today. When others thought that we were going to achieve a positive result, he betrayed his promise and chose Murong Lan, the daughter-in-law of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, as the royal concubine. This news is like a bolt from the blue to me." At this moment, Liu Jia had tears streaming down her face.Lin You listened quietly without speaking. He knew that it was better to be silent at this time.

"I cried and went to the palace to look for him, but he either avoided him or made various excuses. I thought it was because I was not gentle enough, not considerate enough, and refused his request repeatedly for the sake of my cultivation. In order to keep him, I also compromised later. It's gone." Speaking of this, Liu Jia's expression was painful, although she didn't say what she compromised, how could the clever Lin You not guess it.I can only lament in my heart, the beautiful sister in front of me is really dazzled by love.But if you want to blame, you can only blame that heartless beast.

"But I destroyed the foundation of my cultivation, and my efforts only brought me shame. He has his ambitions, and our Marquis Mansion will not help him. He has already made up his mind. The last time we met in the garden of the Wang Mansion, he finally loved me." I said decisive words. At that time, I don’t know how I got home afterwards. I was devastated, heartbroken, and even had difficulty breathing. After I came back, I locked myself in the room and cried for three whole days. All kinds of things broke my heart all over the place. In those few days, I suffered from insomnia every night, my heart was broken, and the pain penetrated to the marrow. You know, there is no medicine for heartache. The beauty of the past is so ironic when I think about it.”

"and after?"

"Later, he officially married Murong Lan. The palace was noble, the governor was powerful, and his mother was the emperor's favorite concubine. The marriage was a lively one. The woman's red makeup filled Xu Jing's long street."

"So you plan to kill his people as revenge?"

"Because of this incident, our Hou Mansion was once reduced to Xu Jing's joke. Although my father didn't blame me, he has gone through a lot of vicissitudes. Obviously he has been under a lot of pressure. Killing his lackeys is not relieved at all, but he is the prince. , what can I do as a fallen nobleman? If possible, I really hope to kill him with my own hands."

"It's not worth it to hire your Marquis Mansion for this heartless man. Looking forward, you deserve better." Lin You's words are naturally reasonable, but how can Liu Jia be reconciled?It's just that she is not reconciled, so what?Can only remain silent.

"What does this have to do with Murong Yue?" Lin You continued to ask.

"She loves King Su, and everyone in Xu Jing knows it. It turns out that before I broke up with him, she often teased and teased him, and now she is even more gloating. It's just that this woman is aggressive, insulting, and bullying too much, and this person is a chicken Duchang and Yazi must be punished, and this time, they joined forces with Princess Su to humiliate me in the street, and even implicated you."

"It doesn't matter to me, and if you survive a catastrophe, you will have blessings!"

Liu Jia explained clearly the ins and outs of their relationship.At this moment, she looks sad, as if she is still reminiscing about the past, but the sweeter the past, the more lost she is now, it is human nature to hate because of love.What's more, Nalu's "beast" is really deceiving people too much.Even if it's for his own future, then why delay her Liu Jia.She is the daughter of the majestic Hou Mansion, even if the Hou Mansion is no longer beautiful, it is easy to find a good husband.In the current situation, most of Liu Jia's reputation has been ruined, and even her cultivation has been affected, which is really detestable, shameful and hateful.

Suddenly, Lin You had a bold idea in his heart, and he said to Liu Jia solemnly, "I want to give you a surprise."

"Really?" Liu Jia just smiled and didn't seem to care.

"Now the gift is still stored elsewhere. After the New Year's Eve, my injuries are all healed. I will go pick it up and give it to you."

"it is good!"

"Let him go with the wind in the past, and you don't have to stay longer for the heartless people."

"it is good!"

……

There was a long silence that followed, they just fiddled quietly with the fire.Liu Jia gently blew away the dust floating on the stove, very lightly but firmly, as if what was blown away was not the dust, but the sad memories of the past.

As for Lin You, who was facing each other, he was still worrying about the gift just now, but he was very sorry that he could not repay the care of the Hou Mansion.Unexpectedly, a big gift was found so quickly, it was perfect for Liu Jia.However, this great gift is not easy to take. Right now is not the time. He has to wait for the right time after he fully recovers.And after delivering the gift, he will leave Xu Jing and Guangchu.

After ten years of sharpening a sword, Frost Edge has never been tried.After the New Year's Eve, he will give it a try.
