Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Rattan Shoes

Di Qing had guessed too many Yuan Hao's intentions, but never thought that Yuan Hao arrested him just to marry Shan Shan! Why would Yuan Hao do such a thing? Yuan Hao just promised that as long as Di Qing came over, he could take Zhang Yuan's place.At that time, Di Qing wanted to ask, "So what about sitting in Zhang Yuan's position? Could it be that Zhang Yuan has worked so hard for many years, and for one of your wishes, you have to lose your head? You said that Zhao Zhen will do anything for the sake of the country. Why don't you do that? Woolen cloth?" But he didn't say these words after all, he knew what's the use of defending now?Yuan Hao was right in saying that in this world, the weak prey on the strong, and the winner is king.When Di Qing wins, he doesn't know how to reason with his fists. He only does what he thinks he should do. When Di Qing loses, he doesn't know how to use reason to deal with fists. He doesn't do unnecessary things.

Because of this, Di Qing was surprised.It's strange that in Yuan Hao's mind, he has always regarded his great achievements as his first priority, and his duty to rule the world.Such a person has only one kill for rebellion, and only one kill for women.In the world, anyone who refuses to submit to him, he will just kill them! But this time Di Qing offended Yuan Hao, how could Yuan Hao tolerate him?Yuan Hao would really do such a crazy thing for the sake of Shan Dan? Di Qing couldn't figure it out, but he stopped thinking about it. He looked at Yuan Hao calmly, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know whether I should hate your madness or thank you for your consideration. But I can't agree to your request."

Yuan Hao looked down at his slender fingers, and said slowly, "I hope you will give me an answer after thinking about it." Di Qing shook his head and said, "Don't think about it. You just said that my biggest shortcoming, Di Qing, is that I am emotional. Yes, I have always been like this, and I will never use emotions to make deals! You can kill me now, but you can't let me I betrayed my feelings!" The words were heavy, and there was an unquestionable decision in them. They were originally two completely different types of people, one affectionate and the other ruthless, but they obviously had a common characteristic, once they made a decision, they would not be changed by others.

The new moon has risen outside the hall, and it can't illuminate the forest in the hall. A cold light flickered in Yuan Hao's eyes, and he kept staring into Di Qing's eyes. Di Qing didn't bow his head, and he kept looking into Yuan Hao's eyes.The fire sparkled by those eyes has already told each other's mind.After a long time, Yuan Hao said: "You will definitely regret it." Di Qing smiled, "Not necessarily." Yuan Hao also smiled, but there was an indescribable ruthlessness in his smile, "Three days, I will give you three days. You don't have to rush to reject me, I will hear your answer after three days."

With a wave of his hand, guards in golden armor entered the hall and took Di Qing away.Yuan Hao looked at Di Qing's back, the murderous look in his eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by a bit of sadness.He just stretched out his five fingers, and clenched them into fists in an instant. He clenched his fists so forcefully that the backs of his hands turned white and his phalanx protruded.Twist that powerful fist, Yuan Hao murmured: "Di Qing, you must promise me, otherwise...you and I will both regret it!" Di Qing didn't hear Yuan Hao's last words, otherwise he would be surprised.Now it seems that if Di Qing does not agree to the request, there is only one dead end. Di Qing may regret it, but why should Yuan Hao regret it?

The night is thick and the sky is full of moon.The moon was dim, and the stars were scarce... Di Qing took a deep breath of air after leaving the Palace of Heavenly Capital.The fragrance of flowers is strong at night, and the feeling is refreshing.Di Qing's expression was still calm. Although the golden armor guard beside him was expressionless, he looked at Di Qing with some surprise in his eyes. People in this world who really regard death as home?Di Qing took a deep breath, was it because he knew that after he was imprisoned, he would never see such a sweet night again. Six days later, there were only two answers, life... or death!Which one has Di Qing chosen?

Di Qing took a few steps when he suddenly heard a noise not far away.Although Di Qing didn't care about life and death, he was still a little surprised that someone dared to make a noise in the Tiandu Hall?How dare someone make noise in front of Yuan Hao? Turning his head to look over, he saw a person about to rush into the Tiandu Palace, and shouted: "Wu Zu, it's me." A guard in golden armor blocked the way: "Prince, you can't go in without the order of the soldiers." The man shouted angrily: "He is my father, why can't I see him?" Di Qing thought to himself, most of this person is the crown prince Ning Ling, who is now the prince of Xia Kingdom.Brother Ning Ling was originally Yuan Hao's second son, but Di Qing heard that Yuan Hao's eldest son, Ning Ming, died because he was seeking immortality and practicing Taoism, so this brother Ning Ling was made the prince.It is said that Brother Ning Ling and Yuan Hao grew up very similar. Di Qing squinted and found that Brother Ning Ling looked a bit like Yuan Hao between his brows, but it was more exaggerated and less ambitious and decisive.

Without waiting to see, Di Qing was pushed away by the guards behind him, and when he entered the cell, the iron door was locked tightly. Sitting in the prison, Di Qing looked up at the roof, not knowing what he was thinking. Suddenly, two days had passed, and on this day, the iron door of the cell was opened, but Di Qing didn't bother to look at it, he just thought it was the jailer who came and didn't want to smell a faint fragrance. The faint fragrance penetrated into my heart.There were soft footsteps, and they stopped in front of Di Qing's room.Di Qing finally looked up and saw a woman standing in front of the prison door, her wonderful eyes were full of emotion.

Di Qing was not surprised when she saw that the person who came was a woman, she smiled and said, "I don't know if I should call you Chief Zhang? Or Miss Miaoge?" When the girl came, it was Zhang Miaoge! Seeing that Di Qing didn't show any surprise, Zhang Miaoge smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what you call it, any name is fine." After a pause, seeing Di Qing's expression was indifferent, Zhang Miaoge said, "Don't you blame me for cheating you before?" Di Qing shook his head and said: "The two countries are fighting each other, and each is the master. Why do I blame you? On the contrary, you saved me twice, and I have to thank you."

Zhang Miaoge smiled sweetly when she heard Di Qing said that she had rescued each other twice, she knew that Di Qing had recognized her when he was in Danfeng Pavilion. Life is quite helpless. She didn't have any bad feelings towards Di Qing at all, but there were two people like this, one inside the cage and the other outside the cage. Seeing that Zhang Miaoge was silent, Di Qing said, "If you came to see me before I died, I would be very grateful. But if you want to be a lobbyist for Yuan Hao, then there is no need to talk about it." Zhang Miaoge hesitated for a while before saying: "I am not here this time to be a lobbyist for Yuan Hao..."

Di Qing was stunned for a moment, then said bitterly: "Could it be that you are here to see me off?" Of course, his seeing off was somewhat sad. On Zhang Miaoge's pretty face, there was a sense of helplessness, she slowly stepped forward, and said softly: "Di Qing, I'm here to persuade you to change your mind..." Di Qing frowned, "Changing your mind? Didn't you say that you are not Yuan Hao's lobbyist?" Zhang Miaoge sighed softly, "According to my heart, I also want you to marry Shan Shan. I... Please, please?" She begged softly, with a sad look on her face. Di Qing was stunned, not expecting Zhang Miaoge to say such words. Zhang Miaoge begged him to marry Shan Shan, why?He couldn't figure it out. Such a tone, so gentle...Under the bright and uncertain oil lamp, those beautiful eyes looked at Di Qing sincerely, it was really hard for Di Qing to refuse.But Di Qing finally shook her head and said: "Miss Zhang, I'm sorry, I am also grateful to her for saving me. She is a good woman, but I have never liked her. In my whole life, I only like Yushang!" Zhang Miaoge's red lips parted slightly, originally she wanted to say, "Would you rather die than compromise?" Seeing Di Qing's determined eyes, she didn't try to persuade her anymore. Some things, for some people, are indeed fatal and will not be compromised. Maybe it's stupid... Maybe it's crazy... Maybe others have thousands of opinions, but he only has one reason. He loves Yushang, and he's still waiting for Yushang. For some reason, with a sore nose, she suddenly thought, "I'm going too, will the man I like miss me so much like Di Qing?" Zhang Miaoge finally just nodded, unable to speak, turned around , leaving slowly. Di Qing looked at her back, full of desolation, and almost wanted to ask, why did she ask him to marry Shan Shan? Why? But he didn't ask any further. At that time, he felt apologetic, guilty, and worried, but he didn't want to be influenced by any reason in his emotional choice.He is waiting for Yushang. Although this promise has not been made, it will not change in this life! The iron gate opened and closed, and Zhang Miaoge left with a clang.Di Qing breathed a sigh of relief, leaning against the wall, looking at the flickering oil lamp, wondering what he was thinking. At this time, there was another sound on the iron gate, and Wuzang Wudao walked in.Several people followed behind him, the first one held a tray covered with red silk.There is something covered with red silk, round... Di Qing glanced at the tray, his heart trembled slightly, but he could still maintain his composure. Wuzang Wudao still had a peaceful smile and plain clothes, looked at Di Qing and said, "Di Qing, we meet again." Di Qing didn't get up, and said indifferently: "We haven't been apart for too long. It is said that among the nine kings of the Dragon Department, Prajna enlightens the Tao and is unparalleled in wisdom. I was caught by you, and I was convinced." Wu Zang realized the Dao, but became humble and said with a smile: "It's ridiculous to use tricks to succeed." Di Qing became more and more calm, "If you lose, you lose. It doesn't matter how you lose. On the battlefield, the result is the same if you are bitten to death or hacked to death. Now that the nonsense is over, we can get down to business." Of course Wuzang Wudao would not come to visit him without incident, Di Qing.Of course, Wuzang Enlightenment will not just be a matchmaker.Then what is Wuzang Enlightenment for? Wu Zang Wudao still smiled and said: "Wu Zu said...tomorrow is the deadline he gave you, and he hopes you will think about it before replying to him." In his smile, something strange suddenly appeared, and he pointed at the back The tray in the man's hand said: "This is a gift prepared by Wuzu for you. It is not a respect. General Di please accept it." With a movement of his hand, the red silk on the tray was lifted, revealing a round...human head on the tray inside! Di Qingrao was calm, but his heart skipped a beat when he saw someone's head suddenly. He has seen a lot of dead people, so of course he is not afraid of a dead person's head, what he is afraid of is seeing the head of a friend. He fell into the enemy's hands, and what happened afterwards, he knew nothing.How are Guo Kui, Han Xiao, and Li Ding doing now? The head was washed clean, and there was no trace of blood, but it was just like that. On the contrary, after seeing it, people felt like vomiting.Di Qing finally saw who the head was, but raised his eyebrows, not feeling sad. That was Wei Mu Shanfeng's head! Wei Mu Shanfeng used Zhang Yuan's head to win Di Qing's trust, and then tricked Di Qing into falling into a trap. Of course Di Qing would not be sad when such a person died.How could Wei Mu Shanfeng die? Turning to Wu Zang Wudao, Di Qing said: "Does Yuan Hao think that if I get this head, I will change my mind?" Wuzang Wudao calmly said: "Of course not. A person like Wei Mu Shanfeng, who sells his friends for glory, deserves to die. Wu Zu also despised this kind of person, so he chopped off his head to appease General Di's anger. Of course, if General Di is not satisfied, there are still two heads for General Di to chop off..." He waved his hand, the iron door slammed, and Ma Zheng led the troops to escort the two of them in, both of whom were dressed in red. , a slightly shorter stature, all with their heads covered. Wuzang Wudao waved his hand again, the jailer opened the cell door and pushed the two people in, falling to the ground.Di Qing stretched out his hand and tore off the black scarves on the heads of the two men, only to realize that they were Wei Mu Shanqing and Ali. Suddenly I thought of Yuan Hao once confidently said, "In this world, there is never a time when I can't kill the person I want to kill!" Wei Mu's family betrayed Yuan Hao, and Yuan Hao even killed his mother, uncle, wife, and son. Now, Wei Mu Shanfeng is also dead, and Wei Mu Shanqing and Ali are also in the cage. Fearing that Yuan Hao has already uprooted him. Wu Zang Wudao's smile contained a sense of cruelty, "I was ordered by Wu Zu to invite General Di, but I knew that there must be someone familiar with General Di to lead the way, so I sent someone to find Wei Mu Shanfeng. When he heard that General Di was invited, he happily agreed." Wei Mushan Qingben fell to the ground, his hands were cut upside down by the rope, he rushed over and leaned against the fence and shouted: "You lie, you lie! You catch us all, and then threaten my elder brother to deceive General Di Yes. He didn't want to go, but you said that if he didn't go, he would kill our whole clan. My elder brother was forced to do nothing, so he agreed to you." She yelled, both angry and heartbroken, and she was explaining to Di Qing.She lost her composure a little bit, and the saliva even sprayed on Wuzang Wudao's face.But she was trapped after all, through the arm-thick fence, she couldn't reach Wuzang Enlightenment.Angrily, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of foam, hitting Wu Dao's shoulder right in the middle. He didn't hide his enlightenment and didn't dodge it. He looked at Wei Mu Shanqing with sarcasm in his eyes, "A woman is a woman. You still don't understand a man's mind? If a man really makes a decision, ten cows will lose his mind." You can't pull it back. The fact is that your elder brother is greedy for the high-ranking officials and rich salary I promised, and he doesn't want to live a life of fugitive for the rest of his life, so he came to deceive Di Qing." "You lied, you lied!" Wei Mu Shanqing's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse.Seeing Wuzang Wudao's cold eyes, he knew in his heart that it was very possible. Suddenly a voice said: "He didn't lie!" The voice came from behind Wei Mu Shanqing, carrying cold anger.Wei Mu Shanqing turned his head and looked over, and saw Ali looking at her with boundless despair in his eyes. "What did you say?" Wei Mu Shanqing asked tremblingly. Ali gritted his teeth and said, "When Wuzang Wudao arrested us, he asked me if I would deceive General Di. I scolded him, saying that we, the Weimu clan, are grateful for General Di's kindness. He will not betray General Di. He made a bet with me when he didn’t hide his enlightenment, saying that he didn’t believe me! He hid me in the cabinet, and then he found the head of the Weimu clan, and asked the Weimu clan Zhang to lie to General Di. At first, the patriarch was a little bit He hesitated, but later Wu Zang Wudao said that as long as the patriarch can help him catch Di Qing, the Weimu clan will not have to run for their lives from now on. And the patriarch of Weimu can also get an official! I heard the patriarch agree with my own ears!" Wuzang Wudao sighed lightly and said, "Ali, although you are young, you are much stronger than Wei Mu Shanfeng." Ali said bitterly: "I bet you, if I lose, I will tell the truth to General Di." Di Qing was slightly taken aback, wondering why Wu Zang Wudao made such a bet with Ali?Wei Mu Shanqing sat down on the ground with a dull expression, after Ali told the truth, she was completely devoid of confidence.Wuzang Wudao laughed and said: "You are very trustworthy..." "But you don't keep your promise!" Ali suddenly shouted: "You promised Patriarch Weimu to do something, but you didn't do it!" Wuzang Wudao said lightly: "You are wrong, Wuzu has agreed to serve as the governor of Mu Shanfeng. Now...he doesn't have to run for his life anymore?" It's true that the dead don't have to run for their lives, so what's the use of officials? The cold head, and the cold words pierced Ali's body like a sharp sword. He suddenly stood up, but he was speechless.Di Qingyi was standing by the wall, with a dull expression, and said, "I didn't hide the enlightenment, did you bring them here because you wanted me to praise your clever plan?" Wuzang Wudao faced Di Qing and immediately responded with a smile, "All this... is Wu Zu's order. Wu Zu ordered me to tell General Di that no one's life is actually as precious as your own." "You're wrong." Ali roared suddenly, "Not everyone thinks like you. Did you bring us here to coerce something?" Although he is young, he can think clearly. There was some coldness in Wuzang Wudao's smile, he finally nodded and said: "You are right or wrong, the lives of the last two of your Weimu clan are not as important as I thought." Turning to Di Qing, he said: "General Di Wu Zu said that the Tianhe Hall will be very lively tomorrow, and he asked General Di to come and tell you his decision in front of many people. The life and death of these two people will of course be decided by General Di." After finishing speaking, Wu Zang Wudao turned to leave, but Ali had already smiled sadly: "You are wrong..." He suddenly stood up, suddenly shouted angrily, and bumped his head against the bluestone wall. Di Qing's face changed color, he stretched out his hand to pull, and said in a low voice: "No!" If he had the previous skills, it would not be difficult to pull Ali back, but he is weak when he walks, how can he hold the staunch Ali? With a loud "bang", Di Qing arrived staggeringly, and Ali had already fallen limply, his forehead was covered with blood. Di Qing hugged Ali, and whispered: "Ali, why are you so stupid?" Wei Mu Shanqing was also stunned, unable to move for a while. Wu Zang's footsteps of Enlightenment finally paused, as if hesitating a bit, and finally left with great strides.Ma Zheng also seemed to be touched by Ali's fierceness. He glanced at Di Qing, not as arrogant as before, and left with Wuzang Wudao. Ali's face was covered with blood, he barely opened his eyes to look at Di Qing, and said with difficulty: "General Di, we are sorry for you." Di Qing put his arms around Ali and sighed, "You silly boy, what can you do to me? What does all this have to do with you?" He tore off the front of his shirt, and was about to bandage Ali's wound. Ali was seriously injured in the collision just now, but he could still be saved. Ali grabbed Di Qing's hand, and hissed: "General Di, don't stop the bleeding, let me die, and I will feel better. I have no father or mother, and my brothers have died. Until now, I still have to die." What's the point of me living in this world if I get involved with your benefactor again?" Wei Mu Shanqing had already burst into tears when he heard the words, and at that moment his heart was ashamed as death.What Ali said is right, the Weimu clan was all killed by Yuan Hao, and now the eldest brother is also dead.But before the elder brother died, he also framed Di Qing. Now that they are trapped in a prison, how can they have any hope? Di Qing slowly took Ali's hand, seeing the indelible vicissitudes on the face of the underage child, and said softly: "You still have relatives. Your relatives are me!" Ali was startled, and suddenly burst into tears, throwing himself into Di Qing's arms. He had long wished to die, and he didn't want to hurt Di Qing again, but after hearing Di Qing's words, how could he hold back the apology and excitement in his heart? Although he didn't harm Di Qing, he really felt ashamed for the Weimu clan. Di Qing patted Ali's shoulder lightly, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, we won't just die like this." When Wei Mushanqing heard what Di Qing said, he was even more desperate.Now, if Di Qing doesn't surrender to Yuan Hao, what hope do they have? But Di Qing would never surrender, and they would not surrender for survival, so by now, wouldn't there be a dead end? With the sound of "Bang Dang", the iron door of the cell opened suddenly, and a dark wind blew through, extinguishing several lights in the cell.The wind blew with a gloomy and cold air. The silvery moonlight came in, and the corridor was pale in color. At the prison door, there was a person standing, so that everyone could not see his face clearly.Even if the man stood there, he was silent, like a ghost. Wei Mushan looked over, shivering tremblingly?Who is it?How could there be no jailer to stop him? I saw that person approaching step by step, walking extremely slowly... his behavior was extremely strange. Wei Mu Shanqing saw the strange person coming, and almost screamed loudly.Who is it?Could it be that Wei Mu Shanfeng's soul died unwillingly, so he came to Di Qing to express his helplessness? After Zhang Miaoge got out of the cell, she frowned. Looking up and seeing the palace willow on the moon, the melancholy remains.She stood under the tree for a long time, her sleeves were full of wind, and she seemed to be full of sorrow.Looking in the direction of the Heavenly Capital Palace, Zhang Miaoge hesitated for a moment, seeing that there were still bright lights there, and finally walked over. In the majestic hall, the lights are shining, illuminating the hall as if it were daytime. Under the bright lights, there was only one person sitting, still wearing the same black crown and white clothes, still wearing the huge bow and colorful arrows.It seems that Xuanyuan Bow and Dingding Arrow have never been separated from him, but apart from the bow and arrow, few people are by his side. There are still sixteen gold-armored guards outside the hall, but in the spacious hall, there is only Yuan Hao alone. Under the lights, the figures sway, as if they are also telling the boundless loneliness. He can hold great power in his hands, and can take life and death, but he gives up more.The moment he saw Zhang Miaoge, Yuan Hao's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement. But even that look is still falling... When Zhang Miaoge walked to the front of the hall, the sixteen gold-armored guards saw her and did not stop her.No one can come to Yuan Hao's side without Yuan Hao's permission, even the prince is no exception.But Yuan Hao once ordered Zhang Miaoge to come to him at any time without stopping him. Zhang Miaoge walked up to Yuan Hao and sat down slowly. Yuan Hao sighed lightly, and said wistfully, "Shan Shan is right. I can control other people's life and death, but I can't control other people's feelings. I can't stop Shan Dan from loving Di Qing, and I can't force Di Qing to like Shan Shan either." He didn't ask Zhang Miaoge The result, because he had already seen the result from Zhang Miaoge's expression. Zhang Miaoge looked at the face full of personality, "Then what do you decide to do?" She just looked at the person in front of her, feeling as if she was close but far away. She wants to say, don't worry about their feelings, sometimes it's better to miss each other than to meet each other.Those people who always meet each other sometimes don't understand the thoughts of the people around them, you can't influence other people's thoughts... But she didn't say anything after all. Seeing Yuan Hao was silent, she said again: "Why didn't you tell Di Qing the truth? He is an emotional person, if he knows the truth..." Before he finished speaking, Yuan Hao cut it off with a wave of his hand. Words said: "I just don't need pity, what she needs is true love!" The lights were shining, and Zhang Miaoge's wonderful eyes showed sadness, but he agreed with Yuan Hao's words.Just being a stubborn but proud girl, she really wouldn't want that feeling of charity.After a long time, she said: "Does Shan Shan know everything you have done for her?" Yuan Hao said: "A few days ago, I let Di Qing meet Shan Shan, afterward Shan Shan... felt better. I didn't tell her everything, but I think...she knows everything." There was a rare pain in his eyes, Yuan Hao Squinting his eyes, looking at the jumping lights, as if looking at the elusive fleeting time, "Now I pretend not to know that she knows." This sentence is very simple, but it is complex, and the tone of it contains deep pain and sadness. Zhang Miaoge's eyes fell on Yuan Hao, and he said after a long time: "Just having you as a big brother, I won't regret it, you have done well enough." Yuan Hao suddenly punched the table, and with a "wow", the table collapsed. He suddenly stood up. Although the punch was fierce, it still couldn't vent all the sadness in his heart, "I didn't do enough! I always thought that I could change her, but now I realize that I was very wrong. I just This little sister, the one who is going to leave for me!" Huo Ran looked at Zhang Miaoge, Yuan Hao's eyes full of ambitions had sparkles, his voice was already hoarse, he stared at Zhang Miaoge and hissed: " I owe her too much in my life. Now she has few days to live, and since I know her heart, I can't let her regret it. No matter what, I want Di Qing to marry her tomorrow! Definitely!" After he finished speaking, he clenched his fists and looked up at the sky outside the hall with a terrified expression. There is a moon in the sky, and the moon is falling. The man walked on the corridor with slow steps and slightly stiff movements.The moonlight was setting, and through the window of the prison door, a long figure appeared. Wei Mu Shanqing no longer knew whether it was a human or a ghost, so he kept backing away and squeezed to the wall.Di Qing looked at the figure, a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face. The man finally came to the fence, looked in Di Qing's direction for a moment, and said slowly, "Di Qing, are you there?" Di Qing was even more surprised, and temporarily handed Ali over to Wei Mu Shanqing, stood up and said, "Princess Shan Shan, why are you here?" It turned out to be Shan Shan.She clearly made an appointment with Di Qing, and she will not see him until a few days later. She refused to see Di Qing at first, why now, instead, she took the initiative to look for Di Qing in the prison? There was no light in the prison, and it was shrouded in darkness. Di Qing could only vaguely see Shan Shan's outline, and intuitively knew that it was Shan Shan. She was still dressed in purple, but her face seemed a little pale, but her lips were redder.Today, she is wearing heavy makeup.Shan Shan didn't answer Di Qing's question, and smiled sweetly. In the cell, she looked a little more charming, "I'm... okay today?" Di Qing took a step forward slowly, staring into Shan Shan's eyes, seeing that her eyes seemed to be a little dazed, and she didn't know why, but she was a little scared.Just changed, changed too much.That stubborn and eccentric girl in the past seems to have become a lot more depressed. "Are you... okay?" Di Qing asked back. Hearing that Di Qing's tone was full of inquiry, Shan Shan smiled happily, "Of course I'm fine. Di Qing, why are you so careless that my elder brother caught you here?" If someone else said that, Di Qing would probably think it was ironic, but just said it, as if he was talking with a friend, and there was no hostility in it alone.He didn't answer, just stretched out his hand gently and shook it in front of him... She just looked in his direction and didn't respond. A chill suddenly rose up Di Qing's spine, and he was about to step forward when he stopped suddenly, with a horrified expression in his eyes. Shan Dan didn't notice Di Qing's strangeness, and said, "You came to see me a few days ago, and at that time... I was actually very happy." On her slightly pale face, there was a sweet smile. That is real joy. That smile brought a lot of light to the dark cell and the weird atmosphere.That smile was once pure, cunning, and ever-changing, but at this moment, there is only sincerity left. Di Qing quietly looked at Shan Dan who was close at hand, her lips curled up, and she wanted to ask something, but in the end she didn't ask.After a moment of silence in the cell, Di Qing said, "I was also very happy when I saw you." Just hearing this sentence, a brilliance suddenly appeared on her face, but her eyes were still staring blankly ahead. Di Qing said again: "You came to see me so late, but is there something wrong?" Shan Shan nodded seriously, and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, after you left, I thought about it for a long time. You saved me in the desert, and you took me out of the desert. I also saved you in the palace, and you took me out of the desert. You left the palace, didn't you?" Di Qing was a little puzzled, why did Shan Shan so cautiously bring up the past?But looking at Shan Shan's blank eyes, he finally nodded and said: "Yes. You are right. I saved you, and you saved me. We owe nothing to each other." When Shan Shan heard the words "not owed to each other", her delicate body trembled.Shaking his head, his expression seemed to be a little distressed, and he said, "You are wrong, I thought about it for a long time, and suddenly realized that I still owe you..." Di Qing was very surprised, not understanding why Shan Shan was entangled in such a trivial matter, and asked, "What do you owe me?" Shan Shan reached out and groped in his sleeve for a while, then slowly took out a rattan shoe.The rattan shoes are not luxurious, they are made of dead rattan, with eagle feathers on the bottom, they can even be said to be simple. But holding that shoe with just two hands is like holding the most precious jewelry in the world.Because this pair of shoes was the only thing Di Qing left for her.She looked at Di Qing and said, "You gave me this shoe, but I didn't pay you back. So, I still owe you something. I've thought about it for a long time, and I will definitely give you something to make up for it." Di Qing frowned, and said after a while: "Why do you have to be so clear?" Shan Shan heard the words, with a longing smile on his face, he murmured: "It must be clear, for sure." Wei Mu Shanqing hugged Ali, looking at the two people inside and outside the cell, his eyes flashed with strangeness.She seemed puzzled and stunned, and there was some disgust and emotion in it. Di Qing said: "Then you don't have to work hard..." After a pause, he said: "You don't have to return anything to me. If you return this shoe to me, then we will not be in arrears with each other?" Suddenly thought of something, vaguely felt The scene seemed familiar.In the past, apart from Shan Dan, there seemed to be someone who insisted on not defaulting on each other with him... Anxious on Shan Shan's pale face, he hurriedly said: "No, not sure. This shoe means something completely different to me than it means to you. There are tens of millions of shoes in this world, but the combined meaning of all the shoes , not as good as this one. If I give you the shoes, maybe in your eyes, this is the same as thousands of shoes, no different at all, right? Di Qing...you talk." Di Qing's heart skipped a beat, seeing that snow-like face was full of anxiety.Unable to bear it for a while, he nodded and said, "You are right." "Yes." A smile appeared on Shan Shan's face, blooming like an orchid.She has changed a lot, she has gone to be wild, to be willful, and she is no longer indecisive. She just looks like a naive and unworldly girl. It was really hard for Di Qing to connect her with the one in the desert. What made her change so much? Only a smile appeared, and he frowned again, and said, "Di Qing, I will send you something in a few days. That thing is as important to you as this shoe is to me." Di Qing's body trembled when he heard the words, he didn't care about what he was going to give him, he just felt the sea-like affection in those plain sentences. Although he is emotionally dull, even Yang Yushang called him a stupid big brother like a fool.But how could he not feel the simple devotion?Although Shan Shan has not said a word of liking to him until now, just like the weight of the rattan shoes in Shan Dan's heart, Di Qing is probably ten thousand times more precious than the rattan shoes in Shan Dan's heart. "Shan Shan...I..." Di Qing was about to speak, but was blocked by Shan Shan, "Okay, I know, you don't need to say it." Di Qing hesitated: "You know?" Shan Shan smiled and said, "I can feel what my beloved is thinking." But in her smile, there was a sudden anxiety.She finally said what she wanted to say, maybe she will only say this once in this life.She kept warning herself not to say these words, because since she knew what her beloved was thinking, she knew that there would never be a response, so wouldn't there be something owed between them? But when she said these words, she felt uneasy and regretful. Maybe a lot of words, there will be no next life, just look forward to this life?Maybe Di Qing didn't understand this sentence? Di Qing stood there dumbly, even though he had thousands of thoughts, he couldn't say a word. Dan Shan finally squeezed away the unease, gently put the rattan shoes back, reached out and brushed the long hair on his forehead, and asked, "Di Qing, do you...see me...beautiful?" There was a lot of anticipation on that pale face... Di Qing stared at Shan Shan for a long time, finally nodded and said, "It's very beautiful, as beautiful as flowers." Shan Shan's face suddenly became brighter, and his cowardice changed at that moment, as if his appearance had changed.Di Qing never thought that a single word of his would make such a change in Shan Shan.Shan Shan was silent for a moment, then smiled again, and said, "Thank you very much. I'm gone. We might see each other again in a few days... No, we will definitely see each other again." He nodded heavily, as if giving himself confidence .Turn around slowly, and leave slowly. Di Qing looked at Shan Shan's back, with worry in his eyes.Seeing Shan Dan arrived in front of the iron gate, he groped for a while before walking out. With the sound of "Bang Dang", the iron gate cut off the back and Fengyue. Di Qing just stood there, couldn't help but want to ask, "What's wrong with Shan Shan's eyes... Could it be that she is blind?" Just now when he saw Shan Shan behaving strangely, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to test it, but Shan Shan didn't respond.He observed Shan Shan's eyes carefully, and found that those originally nimble pupils seemed rather dull.Thinking of Shan Shan coming and going slowly, Di Qing felt puzzled and sympathetic. How can you be blind alone? Yuan Hao insists that Di Qing marry Shan Shan, is it because Shan Shan is blind? While pondering, Wei Mu Shanqing said: "General Di, she is so infatuated with you." Although Wei Mu Shanqing hated Yuan Hao, he also knew that Shan Shan was Yuan Hao's younger sister.But just now no matter who saw Shan Shan, they couldn't hate him. Di Qing was silent, and Wei Mu Shanqing said again: "She hopes to fall in love with you in the next life." Di Qing was startled, turned around abruptly, and said in a broken voice, "What did you say?" Wei Mushan's green eyes were full of sympathy, and he said slowly: "In Tibet, there is a legend that for men and women who are entangled in this life, there must be someone who will pay off the debt in the next life, and they are destined not to be together again. Only men and women who are entangled in this life, After you don’t owe each other, you will truly love each other in the next life! She has always wanted to owe you nothing, so you don’t need to ask, she must know this legend.” When Di Qing heard it, he stayed on the spot, and at that moment, his thoughts were overwhelming.Suddenly remembering that in the desert, I just thought I was going to die, and said to him Di Qing sadly: "If God wants me to die, I hope... to die by your hands. You saved me and then killed me. Are you and me in this life? No more debts?" He also thought of saying goodbye to him outside the Xingqing Mansion, and said to him viciously: "You have left this time, so you must never come back again. You saved me once, and I saved you too. You took me out of the desert, and I I also took you out of the palace. From then on, I will never owe each other, and have nothing to do with you!" He has never understood why Shan Shan always emphasizes that he does not owe a few words, but now, he finally understands.But lightning flashed across my mind, and there was still a scene from the past replaying in my mind. It was in the dark secret room, the person who was as erratic as flying snow stared at him, there were waves invisible in black and white eyes, "You saved me at Chengtian Festival, I will save you once , In this way, you and I will owe each other nothing." "In Tibet, there is a legend...that two people who owe each other...the next life...will never see each other again!" At that time, he thought that Feixue didn't want to be troubled by him again, so he didn't want to meet him in the next life, and he didn't want Feixue to lie to him. The two people who did not owe each other will truly love each other in the next life, and there will be no more entanglements. Why did Feixue lie to him? 还记得那是失望的眼神，绝境中满是恳求，“狄青，你答应我，从今以后，你我各不相欠了，好不好？” 他到如今，才明白一切一切，可是不是太晚？ 那他和羽裳呢，今生如此痴缠，那来生还会不会相见？这时有月明，明月如钩，弯弯的有如相思的眉头！狄青望着那清冷的月色漠漠地透过窗，落在牢狱那寂寂的甬道上，泛着惨白的光，已然痴了…… 元昊皱着眉头，望着那弯弯的月，许久后才道：“妙歌，多谢你陪了我这久。你回去吧。” 张妙歌望着元昊，心中道：“其实我陪你一生一世也是无妨，可在你心中，只有大业，可曾给我留过一分位置。你一直说，我是你的红颜知己，我就一直当作是你的知己，可我不想再做你的知己。” 沉寂如弦，满是幽幽。 所有的话还是萦绕在心头，终于开口，张妙歌道：“兀卒，唃厮啰派善无畏前来几天了，耶律喜孙也因为兴平公主一事来到了兴庆府，他们竟相约而来，向兀卒你施压，只怕……早有约定。” 元昊冷冷一笑道：“他们联手，以为我就怕了？”他昂首挺胸，还是望着那天上的月牙儿，却不望身边女子一眼。 张妙歌幽幽一叹，说道：“我知道兀卒不怕，但你同时应对宋国、吐蕃和契丹三国，又决定明天在天和殿做个了断，若他们真的发难的话，只怕对兀卒不利。” 元昊淡淡道：“狄青被擒，大宋还有勇气和我开战吗？我虽以十万兵马惨败结局，但抓一个狄青，可抵败大宋百万兵马。唃厮啰胸无一统大志，只想安于现状，要去香巴拉而已，给他点甜头，他装作慈悲的面孔，不会轻易以藏边百姓的性命开玩笑。至于耶律喜孙，更是可笑，他们契丹收了宋国的好处，竟来做和事佬，让我不要再对宋用兵。他们得名得利，难道从不考虑我得到过什么？契丹人本还凶悍，算是我的劲敌，但自从澶渊之盟后，数十年不曾开战，只怕兵甲也已发霉了，这样的国度，我何惧之有？” “可是……你近些年来，杀戮太多，只怕手下不服。”张妙歌望着元昊眉宇轩昂，心中却有不安之意。 元昊淡然一笑，“我就是想看看，有谁不服！我希望我手下各个如狼，一只狼，若不懂得嗜血，不懂得反叛，那和羊有什么区别！” 那如银般的月色铺过来，落在那伟岸的身躯上，泛起淡淡的光辉。 那一刻，他满眼大志，双拳紧握，却没有留意到身边站的那个人儿，孤独的站在他的身影内，紧锁眉头，满是哀愁……
