Chapter 184 Going Eighty Miles Ahead
What is destiny?

This is a question that Zhu Wuya hasn't figured out after thinking about it for half his life.

For example, his destiny was doomed to be the next witch doctor from birth.

The reason is that the tongue is slightly longer.Therefore, he is not Zhu Shan's biological son.His relationship with Zhu Shan can be said that he is Zhu Shan's apprentice, he can also be said that he is an adopted son, and he can be simply regarded as an heir.

In their branch, witch doctors must not be stained with dust, let alone do filthy things. Zhu Shan will be just like him until he dies, a virgin.This is really the most ridiculous thing he finds. It is filthy to have sex with men and women, but it is holy to have human blood on your hands.

I don't know which ancestor set such a rule, anyway, he was not a competent witch doctor from the beginning, because he not only questioned the dogma of the witch doctor, but also cared about the relationship between men and women.

This is also the reason why he didn't return to the family after the defeat.He didn't want to go back just now, and he still felt that there was something he wanted to sort out in his heart.

For example, the fate of Pei Jinyu and Dai Wang.

The only way to untangle their entangled fate is to let the past repeat itself.

He said to her: "I will give you a chance to choose again. If you choose to act as the king or choose to rebel and raise an army, you can follow me and live in seclusion in the mountains, regardless of the world's affairs?"

He was tired of living alone in the vast mountains, but if he was with her, he would no longer be lonely.

In this way, the choice of acting king will determine the fate of the three of them.

Whether it is loyalty or betrayal is not something that can be said with one's mouth.

He gave them the drug of the family, so that they could temporarily lose their previous memory, and the period was only two months.

Now that time is running out, he has to give the king a strong dose of medicine.

Then Lin Qianzhi would not be able to survive. Anyway, in order to achieve his goal, he already had too many lives in his hands, and one more life would not be much more.

He is like a beast hiding in the dark night, watching all the people caught by him with a pair of bloodthirsty eyes.

Someone was on the Internet and didn't know about it, and it was Jing Wang Lin Qianzhi who was talking about it.

Someone saw the situation clearly, struggled hard, and wanted to break the situation desperately, and they were talking about Dai Wang Lin Chisel.

In Meichuan, Lin Cong beheaded Fang Ping, the governor of Meichuan County, on charges of corruption and raising private soldiers.

Fang Ping is Fang Ji's youngest son, and has always been the most outstanding son of the Fang family.

When the news first reached Luoyang, Pei Tianshu, who was the emperor, hadn't expressed anything yet. Fang Ji over there felt that he was going to die, so he ran outside the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion and yelled, "Your Majesty, you really want to watch The land of the Lin family has completely changed hands, are the officials of the Lin family reduced to fish and meat?"

Lin Qian was so angry that she was about to die, she thought to herself, is Fang Ji the one who wants to take a back when he is dying?
Before Pei Tianshu could deal with Guang Luxun, he ran to the palace to show his loyalty.

This is a particularly embarrassing thing, he kept expressing his heart, but those courtiers... always like to persecute people.

Lin Qianzhi cried in the hall with tears and snot in her nose.

Pei Tianshu was extremely depressed. Really, is there any basic trust and affection between people?

He said: "Go back to your house and cry, aren't there enough bad things, you still come here to make me feel bad."

Before coming here, Lin Qianzhi had already thought about it. If Pei Tianshu said something high-sounding, it would mean that his life would be over.

Therefore, when he heard it, he grinned and cried and laughed.

This is a kind of happy mood even if you are abused.

He said: "Uncle San, do you understand why I don't want to be the emperor? Really, there are too many bad things that make people feel bad all the time."

Pei Tianshu couldn't help laughing, he waved his hand, motioning for him to back down.

Lin Qianzhi walked out of the hall in a good mood, just in time to bump into the Dai Wang who came here.

Lin Qianzhi greeted Dai Wang happily, but no matter how good he was, he seemed to be faking it because of his red and swollen eyes from crying.

Dai Wang has a delicate heart, and pays special attention to the affairs of the court, so how could he not know why Lin Qianzhi entered the palace and why he was crying.

Dai Wang whispered authentically: "Did the emperor reprimand elder brother?"

Lin Qianzhi was fooled by the sound of "big brother". What big brother and little brother, the former king always called him brother.Lin Qianzhi used silence to express her discomfort with this title.

Dai Wang took this silence as an acquiescence again, his heart sank, and he didn't speak any more.

Lin Qianzhi waved his hand, signaling the Dai Wang to hurry into the palace.

In the eyes of outsiders, King Dai and King Jing just passed by in front of the palace.

No one knows what kind of ripples this kind of passing by has caused in Dai Wang's heart.

Dai Wang met Pei Tianshu this time, and finally got permission to go to the harem.

The sign he played was to meet the queen, but in fact he had already made an appointment with Pei Jinyu.

He wasn't afraid that Pei Jinyu wouldn't go, so he wrote "You and I are husband and wife" in his letter to her.Needless to say anything else, he thought she would be as shocked as he was.

Sure enough, as soon as he stepped into the harem, people from Pei Jinyu came to meet him.

The man led him to turn left and go right, and he went to Fengqi Palace, which no one had lived in for many years.

Fengqi Palace was originally the main hall in the harem. It is said that Yunyun, the last queen of the Liu Dynasty, hanged herself on the plane tree in front of Fengqi Palace in order to prevent her father from seizing the throne.

Then, Fengqi became Fengxi.

So far, Fengqi Palace has been abandoned.The emperors and empresses all the time felt that it was unlucky, and the good main hall fell into a barren state.

This is the old story that the Empress Chu entered the harem and was brought up again.

Chu said: "Since it's unlucky, I don't need it."

One sentence once again decided the fate of Fengqi Palace.

At this moment, Pei Jinyu was standing under the plane tree.

The sun cast mottled light and shadows through the plane tree, and she was hidden in those light and shadows, as if wearing a golden gauze dress, so beautiful and so unreal.

Dai Wang quickly took two steps forward and pulled her out of the light and shadow for no reason.

The two came face to face.

Pei Jinyu's reaction was still not to face each other, and she subconsciously distanced herself from him.

She said: "Who told you that you and I are husband and wife?"

Dai Wang truthfully said: "I don't know, but I believe it."

Pei Jinyu sneered and said: "Then you mean that you can't trust my father anymore. If that's the case, why do you come to tell me this? You want to use this to find out my mind? Then I will solemnly tell you that my surname is Pei , No matter if I marry or not, I can’t get rid of my father’s surname. King Dai, you have to understand that the so-called husband and wife should respect not only the two parties, but also the families of both parties, this is a must.”

After saying all this, Pei Jinyu felt that she had made it very clear, and she walked out slowly as she did when she came.

Dai Wang froze in place, looked at the light and shadow under the plane tree, and then at the clouds in the distance.

It's not that he didn't want to believe it, but he didn't dare.You know, this kind of belief is to risk your life.

Dai Wang's worries Pei Jinyu knew, but just pretended not to know.

In fact, even her own heart is chaotic, she thinks she should trust her father.

But the lost memory doesn't know what kind of things are recorded, and when she chooses to believe it, she will feel uneasy because she can't remember the past.

What is he worrying about, but he can't tell.

Of course, she would not tell the Dai Wang about this.If her father can't fully believe it, let alone Dai Wang.

Don't say that there is no emotion, the only thing in this world is the closest blood relationship. As for love, who knows if he is temporarily fascinated by his eyes.

Even Pei Jinyu now feels that he is fascinated by Dai Wang.

Even though they have already separated, they still always think of the scene where he walked quickly and pulled her past.

But although the eyes are fascinated, fortunately, the mind is still clear.She didn't say anything like "If my father hurts you, I won't obey" the little daughter's words.

Imperial power cannot be challenged.It's good that the Pei family took over the throne from the Lin family, but now the top spot belongs to the Pei family, so no one is allowed to challenge it, not even the Lin family.

At the same time, Pei Jinyu was also thinking about her marriage to Dai Wang.

Why didn't her father say anything?Could it be that something happened in the middle?
Of course, you can't ask her father directly, but you can ask her mother.

After Pei Jinyu left Fengqi Palace, she went directly to her mother's Bai'an Palace.

Together with her mother, they met Dai Wang again, but they didn't talk to him. Dai Wang just said a few words appropriate to the occasion, and then left with a sense of humor.

As soon as Dai Wang left, Pei Jinyu deliberately opened his mouth several times, but stopped talking.

Chu said: "Is there anything you can't talk to your mother about?"

Pei Jinyu seemed embarrassed and said: "Mother, I actually dreamed that I was married to the Dai Wang last night."

She was still thinking in her heart, if the Chu family said that she was "not ashamed", at least [-]% of the chances were that the acting king was being fooled.

Who knows, Chu said in surprise: "Jinyu, do you remember the lost memory?"

Pei Jinyu's heart sank, she had already confirmed that she was indeed the wife of Dai Wang.

Then I heard the Chu family say again: "I don't know what your father thinks in his heart. He is not dissatisfied with the Dai Wang. I guess it is probably because of your last resort when you married the Dai Wang. What your father hates the most is being raped." People persecute..."

Pei Jinyu felt confused and said: "Mother, why don't I understand what you are talking about? I was just dreaming."

Mrs. Chu said "ah" and struggled for a moment, but decided to obey her husband, so she deliberately changed the subject and said, "I didn't sleep well, I'll ask someone to make you a bowl of calming soup."

Pei Jinyu's heart was completely confused, and she casually "hmm".

The mother and daughter said a few more words, and Pei Jinyu also left.

As soon as he returned to his bedroom, Pei Jinyu said he wanted to take a bath.

He deceived the others away, but specially left Jiarong himself.

At this time, Pei Jinyu said with a straight face: "Jiarong, I ask you, are you from the father or from the palace?"

Jiarong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Since the eldest princess asks this question, she naturally treats the servant as her own. The servant is not ignorant of flattery. If the eldest princess wants to ask anything, just ask, the servant must know everything. , and if you leave this door, you will forget what the eldest princess asked."

Pei Jinyu had already taken off her clothes and stepped into the tub with bare feet.

She said: "I don't ask you about complicated things, I just want you to talk about me...and about Dai Wang's childhood."

Jiarong blinked, probably knowing what the eldest princess wanted to ask.She tentatively said: "Does the eldest princess want to know what happened before she was ten years old, or after she was ten years old?"

But Pei Jinyu said: "I just want to know when I got married with Dai Wang."

Jiarong said in his heart that sure enough, he said cautiously: "This is exactly the difference between before and after the age of ten that the servant said."

Pei Jinyu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that she had married the Dai Wang when she was ten years old, and this is really... a perfect young couple.

She thought about what her mother said, and then said: "Why did this palace and Dai Wang get married?"

Jiarong hesitated for a moment, and had to explain truthfully: "The eldest princess married the Dai Wang before she was able to grow up, because...to give the Dai Wang...a joy."

It turned out to be worse than she expected.Pei Jinyu sat quietly in the bathtub without saying a word.

Jiarong said again: "At first the emperor was dissatisfied with acting as the king because of this, and made things difficult for him, but later on he was also very kind to him."

Pei Jinyu asked calmly: "Father really treats him very well?"

Jiarong said: "This slave will never lie in front of the eldest princess."

Pei Jinyu didn't say anything more, and reassessed the relationship between her, her father, and Dai Wang in her heart.

This kind of relationship may have been good in the past, but now that the social status of the Pei family and the Lin family are switched, Pei Jinyu has no idea what will happen.

Being confused about the future is a common problem of human beings, and there are not many people like Pei Jinyu and Dai Wang who are also confused about the past.

For the past, the most emotion that people give is nothing but regret.

Yao An was regretting his decision. Back then, he kept flattering Lin Qianzhi, and even regarded it as his greatest dream to be able to work in front of Lin Qianzhi.

Only now did I realize that it was just a joke.

In fact, he has not fallen out of favor, Jing Wang Lin Qianzhi is more dependent on him than when he was the emperor.

However, King Jing is no longer the emperor, and as a servant of King Jing, he is not as good as a eunuch who sweeps the palace when he enters the palace.

Yao An's indignation was completely comparable to those women in the backyard.

He felt that his life was really pathetic, he had already become a eunuch, and his only dream was to be a high-ranking eunuch, but after going around in circles, he was farther and farther away from his dream.

Yao An was very depressed, and there was basically no other way to relieve him except taking time to drink.

When he finally became sober, he thought, it won't work if it keeps going on like this, he has to find a way to get rid of King Jing.

So, he spent a lot of money and wanted to go to the palace to make connections.

But a lot of money has been used, but none of the relationships have worked out.

He resentfully said to himself: "Prince Jing might as well be dead." After all this is done, he can return to the palace, at worst, start over from scratch, it's better than having no hope at all.

I don't know if God heard his prayer, but suddenly someone sent him a letter, saying that if he can get rid of the serious trouble of King Jing for the emperor, he can return to the palace and be a prince like before. Huang Menlang.

Together with the letter, there is also a small packet of medicinal powder.

Feeling anxious, Yao An went to the kitchen to find a live chicken, and as soon as he returned to his small yard, he dipped grains in a little medicinal powder and fed it to the live chicken.It flapped its wings twice and died.

Yao An's heart beat faster, and he covered his heart as if it was about to jump out, and buried the live chicken under the crooked jujube tree in the yard.He thought to himself that it was indeed produced by the palace, a poison that would not even see blood when killing people.

Yao An was so convinced that he tossed and turned all night. When he was on duty in the morning, he found an opportunity to put the medicinal powder in the lotus seed eight-treasure porridge.

After all, Lin Qianzhi was also an emperor, thinking that he was about to kill the former emperor, Yao An felt that he could not calm down.

He frightenedly waited for Lin Qianzhi to rinse his mouth, and watched him eat a spoonful of lotus seed eight-treasure porridge with trepidation, feeling his throat tighten.

I don't know if it was because of physical problems, or the poison was too poisonous, but it was only a spoonful, and Lin Qianzhi's expression changed, and she fell down with her head tilted.

Yao An exclaimed: "Come here." Then he deliberately knocked the bowl of lotus seed eight-treasure porridge to the ground.

Yao An felt that what he did was perfect, and he would definitely be appreciated by the emperor.

Who knows, in the end, it will be another joke.

Yao An died in the afternoon of King Jing's poisoning, and his body was found in a dry well in King Jing's mansion.

And Jing Wang Lin Qianzhi, he didn't die from the poison immediately, but was stuck in the throat by a lotus seed.Fortunately, when everyone was in a hurry to lift him up, the little eunuch who was in charge of lifting his shoulders slipped his hands for a moment and dropped him to the ground, causing the lotus seed stuck in his throat to bounce out.And because Pei Xiaoqi arrived in time, he saved his life.

Even so, the news that King Jing almost died also shocked King Dai.

You know, once the seeds of doubt are planted, it is very difficult to let go of them, and if you want to aggravate the doubts, sometimes, just a look can do it, let alone such a big thing happened to King Jing.

Just at this time, an unexpected guest came to Dai Wang's mansion.

Guang Luxun Fang Ji disguised himself as a food delivery man, and after entering Dai Wang's mansion, he couldn't stop crying.

He said that Lin Qianzhi was sorry for Emperor Yuanhui, and he remembered how much hardship Emperor Yuanhui had put in for this country.

He also said that Pei Tianshu was sorry for Emperor Yuanhui. Without Emperor Yuanhui's kindness, how could there be a loyal king who later overshadowed the sky with one hand.This still couldn't satisfy Pei Tianshu's appetite, and even did things that forced Lin Qianzhi to sit in Zen.

As soon as Dai Wang heard the words "Emperor Yuanhui", he felt strange emotions that he couldn't express.He only thought that he had deep feelings for his uncle, and didn't pay much attention to this emotion. He just sat there without saying a word, and showed no expression.

Fang Ji hated iron and steel and said: "Could it be that Dai Wang is like Lin Qianzhi, who is as cowardly as a mouse, and wants to watch the Lin family's country completely become someone else's?"

Fang Ji kept looking at Dai Wang's face until he raised his eyes to look at himself, Fang Ji said again: "That's all I said, I will take people out of the city tonight. If Dai Wang wants to revive the Lin family, I will Swear to die."

Fang Ji felt that no one would not be tempted by the throne. He betrayed Luoyang and needed a man surnamed Lin to be the puppet emperor.

Seeing that Lin Qianzhi couldn't do it, she had no choice but to bet on Dai Wang.

He had already inquired about it, and Dai Wang seemed to have forgotten his previous memories, which was really a godsend.

Fang Ji was very confident, and in fact, it was exactly as he expected. Dai Wang rode alone with his team at the appointed time.

This time Fang Ji only wanted to get out of the city and tricked him into opening the city gate. He didn't dare to fight, so he took his family, young and old, and two hundred soldiers and ran south for his life.

As long as he travels eight hundred miles to the south, there will be someone there to pick him up.

But Dai Wang, who was riding alone, was full of thoughts: as long as we go another eighty miles...
