The 450th chapter sacrifice (4)

Zuo You walked to Guo Shao, stared at him and waited for him to explain.

At this time, Guo Shao quickly untied the only ornament from his waist: a jade pendant worn with a red rope. Then he tied it on the wooden shelf on the picture and said to Zuo You in a low voice: "Let's imagine that this jade pendant is not a jade pendant..."

Zuo You said frantically: "It's obviously."

Guo Shao gave him a blank look and said, "Think of it like a big iron ball with a blade stuck all over his body, enlarge it!" Then he picked up the brush straight from the inkstone on the chopping board and drew a person on the drawings, "There is someone here tied up and you can't move. Do you understand?"

Zuo You nodded.

Guo Shao picked up the hanging jade pendant, pulled it in the direction of the drawing, and then let it go, and the jade pendant swept in half. "If we were the person on the drawing, would we be afraid?"

Zuo You said: "If it was really a big iron ball with a blade stuck all over his body, would you be afraid?"

Guo Shao asked again: "Is it dangerous?"

Zuo You nodded: "Maybe you were knocked into a meat pie."

Guo Shao shook his head and said, "It's not dangerous. As long as you pull this 'iron ball' to the right, no more than the person on the drawing, you will definitely not bump into the person on it. If you don't believe it, try it."

Zuo You looked curious and tried several times without exception. At this time, he heard Guo Shao say, "What I want to say is that some things seem dangerous, but they are not the case, but it depends on whether you have the courage. Zhou Ehuang is definitely not a person who can kill, let alone I am not a traitor and evil person. The attack on the Southern Tang Kingdom was to end the war and unify the mountains and rivers. We are not doing evil."

Zuo You said: "Even so, the lord is the commander of the army. Why do you need to 'tickle yourself to this picture'?"

Guo Shao was silent for a moment and said, "Zhou Ehuang must not be willing to come. She was forced. Imagine how a descendant of a country encounters this way. How do you feel? I have to treat her kindly to avoid the loss of fragrance and to treat others well. First of all, you should have trust; if we don't believe her, we will just be hypocritical and pretentious about saying things..."

Zuo You looked like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water and kept shaking his head: "No, I have to stay here tonight and guard my lord to bed."

"Mom, I have spent so much talk with you, it's a waste of time!" Guo Shao frowned, "Anyway, we can't easily expose Zhou Ehuang. She should be pinched to the pain in Jiangning Mansion..."

...When Zhou Xian heard this, he hurriedly covered his mouth tightly with his hands, and then he didn't cry. The tears seemed to be like opening a water gate, and he couldn't stop it, and he wet his collar.

The murderous aura that had just been bulging disappeared in an instant. The heart was sore, soft, and painful, and the mind was filled with mucus.

What should I do... What should I do? A sentence in her heart echoed back and forth, and it couldn't be removed.

However, one thing is certain. I thought that some mobile phones would be used tonight, but now I have lost it. Judging from Zuo You's behavior, he must be with Guo Shao's tent; as long as there are people around Guo Shao, Zhou Xian, such a weak woman, can do nothing.

She quietly walked away from behind the curtain, carefully returned to the bedside, and lay down with her body. In an instant, all the strength in her body seemed to be exhausted, lying there motionlessly, feeling that she was completely out of control, not knowing where she was, and not knowing where to go. She only knew how to cry, and she didn't know what else she could do.

I don't know how long it took, but in a daze, she remembered the lingering and tenderness of her with Guo Shao when she was in Tokyo last year. The feeling of being filled, the feeling of being numb, the lightness of the clouds, and the indulgence that could not breathe, as if it happened just now. Zhou Xian's mouth was dry for a while, and his face became hot after a moment, and he scolded himself with shame and annoyance: I am such a shameless woman, when did he think of that kind of thing?

But when she thought about it, she could not control the past. The memories that had finally been suppressed by him in his heart surged into her mind. After returning to Jiangning Mansion, she had been controlling her thoughts for a long time; and now, her past efforts have been wasted, and all the deep memories have come back clearly.

He said: "Although you said you would not come to the appointment, I was afraid that you would be disappointed when you came and find that the person was not there, so I waited for a while."

"The lady is like a plum blossom, with tenacity in beauty and still blooming in the wind and snow."

"Treat her well, you should have trust first..."

Zhou Xian felt sad again, and the emotional collapse and indulgence flowing from tears flowed out was a little happy in the bitterness. Only at this moment can she truly indulge her emotions... Hate! Hate that we met too late, and when we saw him, we were already a wife, and our body and mind had been entrusted to others; Hate that he knew there was no result, but he still came to plunder his heart. Regret! When he was kept by him in Tokyo, he could not let go of his status, his hometown, and he left cruelly. If he had had more courage and stayed there, how could he be so desperate and so embarrassed now?

However, those regretful indulgences were only for a moment, and Zhou Xian was no longer the willful and wanton little girl, waiting for her calmness. She thought of Zhou Jiamin, her identity after the country, Li Yu and the public opinion of the world, and realized that the desperate situation had not changed at all.

Not only has she not changed, she has been wandering more now, with no way forward and no way out. At this point, she will never assassinate Guo Shao, nor can she resist the previous arrangements... she can't even let go of death.

In this world, the most desperate thing is probably not death, but death with all your eyes open.

Zhou Xian lay on the bed, but he was like lying on a frying pan in the underworld, suffering both physically and mentally.

...

Zhou Xian didn't sleep all night, and the next morning, his eyes were red and swollen like a peach. He was out of the curtain and saw that Guo Shao had already gotten up. Guo Shao took out a chewed willow branch from his mouth and threw it away. He turned to look at Zhou Xian: "Did you sleep well last night?"

Zhou Xian's eyes flashed and said, "I am not familiar with the place, and there are so many soldiers outside, so I naturally don't sleep well."

Guo Shao nodded and said casually: "That's true."

Zhou Xian asked softly again: "Where is that Zuo Shaoqing?"

Guo Shao was slightly stunned and said, "I woke up and left, and went back to take a break." He paused and said seriously, "In view of the lack of sincerity of the peace talks between the Southern Tang Dynasty, the Great Zhou army will launch an important war in the near future."

Zhou Xian pondered: "General Guo wants to attack Jiangning City?"

Guo Shao said: "I dare not disclose military aircraft for the time being. The Southern Tang Dynasty had insufficient sincerity in the peace talks, but after all, we have sent people, so we have to be polite and then soldiers to accept the kindness of the envoy... Yesterday, the Southern Tang Dynasty was trying to ask the singing girls to dance, and I plan to allow them to hold a banquet to host a banquet. "Wang Yao, do you want to dance with them?"

Zhou Xian immediately fell silent when he heard this. Saying for the dance was another murderous intent!

She clearly remembered the planning process of Li Yu and Liu Liuyao. First, Zhou Xian tried to be an insider because she had the opportunity to get close to Guo Shao; but this method doesn't work now, because Liu Liuyao had thought of being Zhou Xian's maid, but was rejected. It was difficult to find the reason for letting Liu Liuyao enter the central army for a while... According to the planning, the road was not open, and the last method was to take the risk of assassinating in public while performing a dance!

Guo Shao and his subordinates were obviously alert to these singing girls, and Li Yu and others also considered this. However, Guo Shao did not understand another thing: he didn't know how fast the sword of Liu Liuyao, a female person, was!

Zhou Xian felt that Guo Shao was in danger, but she didn't dare to remind him, and her mind was very confused and she didn't know what to do.

"'Wang Yao'?" Guo Shao reminded him.

Zhou Xian came to his senses and glanced at him blankly. Guo Shao said, "I just asked you if you want to dance with other singing girls."
