Chapter 369

Draw the sword... kill yourself...

Shang Ruyi sat back slowly, even with some hands and feet limp. For a while, her mood was also confused.

Empress Jiang... slayed herself, after knowing the news of Chu Yang's death?
In fact, she has never quite understood Empress Jiang's feelings for Chu Yang. After all, she was in an embarrassing situation, and Empress Jiang had always been kind to her, and even had a heart-to-heart friendship, which made her unable to see clearly this gentle and kind man. What kind of mood does the empress empress have when facing herself?
However, when she heard the news, she suddenly understood.

It turned out that even such a gentle woman who seemed to be indifferent to everything actually had such intense feelings in her heart.

She turned out to be in love with Chu Yang.

So much love that after knowing the news of his death, she immediately followed him, even in such a tragic way!
And Shang Ruyi slowly raised his head and looked at Yu Wenye—how did he feel when facing such a Queen Jiang?

Obviously, she couldn't understand.

At this moment, Yu Wenye's eyes were complicated, the only clear thing was the unconcealable pain, but apart from that, she couldn't understand what kind of mood he was having.

She just understood why when Shen Wuzheng talked about Daxing City before, he suddenly asked about Queen Jiang's current situation so eagerly.

Perhaps, he understands.

He understands how much the person in his heart loves his husband, and understands that if she knows the news of Chu Yang's death, she will use such a tragic way to end her life.

Shang Ruyi said shyly, "She—"

Yu Wenye glanced at her, and said: "I told you this news in advance to make you ready. You were the one who stayed with him in Jiangdu Palace until the end. Maybe after returning to Daxing City, there will be many People come to ask you for an answer, but the only person you have to face is probably her."

As he said that, he took another deep look at Shang Ruyi: "You don't have the heart to lie to her, do you?"

Shang Ruyi said: "How do you want me to deal with her?"

Yu Wenye said: "I hope your answer can make her less painful."

"..."

Shang Ruyi was silent for a while, then said softly, "I understand."

As she said that, she glanced at Yu Wenye again, and said, "You seem to have never asked me what happened in Jiangdu Palace. Do you not care about this matter, or do you not care about the people involved in this matter?"

When Yu Wenye heard this, the corners of his eyes seemed to twitch slightly, and he looked down at her.

The two looked at each other, and Shang Ruyi immediately felt the deep power in his eyes, which seemed to draw his own soul in at any time, Yu Wenye said: "Now, you can talk about this matter ?"

"...!"

Shang Ruyi's heart trembled.

Although these words clearly did not mention Jiangdu Palace, she seemed to have suddenly fallen into the nightmare of the sea of ​​blood. That night, the pain that was almost deeply engraved into her soul was once again felt in her heart and body. Here, wake up.

Her heart beat in pain.

And looking at her broken gaze, Yu Wenye seemed to have already got the answer, he sighed lightly, and said, "So, I'd better not ask."

"..."

Shang Ruyi was still speechless, only panting slightly.

Seeing the cold sweat breaking out on the tip of her nose and forehead, Yu Wenye sighed heavily, and said, "Go to rest early, we will be leaving early tomorrow morning."

Shang Ruyi struggled for a long time before she let out a soft "hmm".

This night was spent in the silence where the two of them were silent, but it seemed as if their thoughts were entangled.

Early the next morning, they got up.

It was just dawn, and Tusheer and the others had already packed all their luggage. Yu Wenye left behind ten carts of grain and a team of troops as promised. Shi Mi, who was in charge of the last day, also settled the expenses for these days in advance to the abbot and abbot of the temple. The firewood and silver coins used.

He was generous, so naturally he gave a lot, the abbot didn't refuse, after accepting it, he just said: "The poor monk has no personal possessions, I can only pray that the future of the second son and the young lady will be smooth, and that everything will be smooth."

Yu Wenye said: "Thank you."

At this time, Shan Tong'er walked up to the abbot abbot, and knelt down: "Master."

The old monk looked at him with chaotic eyes, and finally showed a trace of reluctance, and even flashed a little tear, only said: "Are you going to leave with them?"

"Yes."

The old monk sighed: "I knew that Buddhism would not be able to keep you."

Shan Tong'er pouted and muttered, "Buddhism can't support me."

Originally, everyone was in the mood of parting, and they were all a little depressed, but when they heard this, everyone couldn't help laughing, even the old abbot laughed, but the laughter was full of sourness, saying : "Yes, Buddhism can't support you, you can only rely on your own strength. But you must also remember-there is more behind you and you forget to shrink your hands, and there is no way to turn back in front of you. In everything, don't go too hastily or go too deep."

Shan Tong'er said: "I understand."

The old monk reached out and touched the top of his head, finally closed his eyes cruelly, turned around and said, "Let's go."

Shan Tong'er made three deep obeisances to him, then slowly got up and left.

So, a group of people left the temple and Yanyue City under the bath of morning light.

Their original team, together with the 2000 people led by Da Bo, is a large group. Shang Ruyi still sat in the carriage as before, and Yu Wenye also accompanied her. Originally, he wanted to invite Shen Wuzheng to get in the carriage. But he refused, and only rode on the side of the carriage.

The team walked forward quietly, and the carriage couldn't stop shaking on the spacious official road. Yu Wenye was resting with his eyes closed at first, but he heard the sound of the wheels bumping, as if there was a little bit of it mixed with it. He opened his eyes and saw that it was Shang Ruyi who was muttering something silently.

So he asked, "What are you thinking?"

Shang Ruyi looked up at him, and said softly, "Tell me, what's the situation in that village now?"

Yu Wenye laughed dumbfounded, and said, "You're still thinking about this."

Shang Ruyi said: "Just leave like this, I still can't let go."

Yu Wenye thought for a while, and said: "Shen Tutai came here last night, which proves that he has left Wanggangzhai, and he is different from Shantonger. Shantonger is only a name in Wanggangzhai, and he is young, so He failed to cultivate his own power, but Shen Tutai was born in the army, he must have his own troops in Wanggang village, and the ones who are coming to join us today may be only a part of them."

"..."

"That is to say, when he leaves, at least a large part of the people will be taken away."

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but snapped her fingers and said, "Then, there is still Wanggangzhai—"

Yu Wenye said: "Both Wang Quyi and Wang Quren were killed by Xiao Yuansui, Li Wenyang was killed by Wang Quyi, Wu Qian was killed by Li Wenyang, Shan Tong'er joined us, and Shen Tutai also left Wang Gangzhai .”

"..."

"Now, the only ones left there are Xiao Yuansui, and the fourth and fifth masters who didn't show up."

Shang Ruyi couldn't help but sighed softly, and said, "We stayed here for less than ten days, and we wiped out half of their elite troops."

"..."

Yu Wenye was silent for a while, and said: "If it weren't for your brother, everything would not be so smooth."

Hearing this, Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat.

She lifted up the corner of the curtain again and looked at Shen Wuzheng who was riding outside on horseback—as Yu Wenye said, all of this started with his map of Zuogong’s suspected tomb, and it was also because of his design that Wuzheng Gan and Li Wenyang killed each other, and from then on, Wang Gangzhai gradually came to this ending, but he seemed so indifferent, as if what he did was just an ordinary thing.

Yu Wenye also glanced at the man on horseback outside, and said, "He reminded me of a word."

"what?"

"The highest good is like water, water benefits all things without fighting."

Having said that, he himself smiled faintly: "This name suits him exactly."

Shang Ruyi also smiled, his eyes were full of tenderness, and said: "Actually, my brother is not completely indisputable."

"Oh?"

Yu Wenye slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at her, only to see Shang Ruyi say: "My brother fights fiercely about my affairs."

"..."

"I remember that when I was young, when I first arrived at my uncle's house, some young masters and ladies from aristocratic families would come to play and laugh at me from time to time, saying that I was a girl's life, and that I killed my parents. At that time, my brother not only quarreled with them, but also moved with them." Hands, one hit them several times, and they won't lose the wind."

"..."

"After shaking hands a few times, those people stopped coming to our house and didn't play with my brother. But my brother didn't mind at all, and said that if these people spoke coldly to me again, he would come and beat them up. "

Having said that, Shang Ruyi raised her head and smiled at him, "I can't tell."

Yu Wenye was a little surprised.

Looking at the figure outside the carriage again, he seemed to have a more complicated expression on his face, he was silent for a while, and said, "You have a good brother."

"..."

For some reason, Shang Ruyi felt that his words seemed to have some deep meaning.

In retrospect, didn't he also have an older brother?

Yu Wenjian...

Thinking of this person made Shang Ruyi's heart even more indescribably dignified. Speaking of which, even if this person didn't show up, his name and figure would still weigh on her heart like a mountain, preventing her even more. On the road ahead of her is an insurmountable and steep peak.

But now, she is also inevitable.

When she thought of going back to Daxing City and facing him, Shang Ruyi couldn't help becoming a little nervous again, she suddenly thought of something, and said: "By the way, you said last night that there were actually many things happened in Daxing City, but We'll talk about it later. What's the matter?"

"..."

Mentioning this, Yu Wenye's eyes flickered again.

Looking at his solemn expression, Shang Ruyi seemed to sense something again, and said softly: "Is it related to your elder brother?"

"..."

At this moment, the carriage suddenly shook and stopped.
