Chapter 776: w.a.n.gye, I was wrong
Under Xiao Tianyao"s swift horse riding, the five-day journey was completed in three days. The accompanying bodyguards all had weak legs and pale faces. At first glance, their bodies were empty!
However, just one look at their horses and people will know what happened.
The Jinwuwei soldiers, who were stationed in the camp, wanted to make a joke on them. But when they took a glance at their horses, there was only sympathy left. They silently lit a row of candles for them in their heart.
It was never easy to go out on errands with their prince!
When Xiao Tianyao returned, the atmosphere in the camp immediately changed. At the moment when Xiao Tianyao stepped in, the more than 200000 troops put down their work without waiting for any command. Then stood upright one by one, and saluted solemnly as Xiao Tianyao walked past them.
There was no welcoming party, no loud drum, no deafening command, everything was silent. When Xiao Tianyao came, the Jinwuwei soldiers quietly put down their work and stood up to salute.
It has never been rehea.r.s.ed in advance. Every Jinwuwei soldier"s respect for Xiao Tianyao comes from his heart. Although it was silent, it can touch the deepest chord of a person"s heart.
The Eldest Prince and the Seventh Prince were shocked when they saw this scene. The two brothers looked at each other and quickly moved away.
No one can replace Prince Xiao in the heart of the Jinwuwei Army. The Jinwuwei Army was not something they can create for the second time. Even if they copy Prince Xiao"s training mode, they will only be similar in shape but not in spirit.
"Unless the Jinwuwei Army is destroyed, otherwise…" Their imperial father has no chance of winning.
The Eldest Prince closed his eyes and said quietly in his heart.
At this time, the Seventh Prince thought the same thing as the Eldest Prince, but he was more profound and didn"t show it on his face at all.
Xiao Tianyao came all the way full of dust from travel. The Eldest Prince and the Seventh Prince didn"t come forward, but said to the deputy general: "Please tell Imperial Uncle we will come again another day."
"w.a.n.gye, your tent is lent by w.a.n.gfei to the eldest prince and the seventh prince." General Yuan Shao accompanied Xiao Tianyao in. In fear that Xiao Tianyao would go to the wrong place, he spoke first.
"Mmm, where is w.a.n.gfei?" Xiao Tianyao kept on walking.
"w.a.n.gfei asked people to set up three thatched huts, just in front of the main camp." Lin Chujiu doesn"t like sleeping in a tent. She found the atmosphere always wet. And now the weather was getting cold, and she can"t sleep warm in the tent, so she asked them to set up a simple wooden hut for her.
"Well, very good!" Xiao Tianyao looked up and saw the thatched hut not far away. He also saw Lin Chujiu standing outside to meet him.
The moment he saw Lin Chujiu, Xiao Tianyao"s cold and stiff facial expression couldn"t help from being soft.
He has always had low requirements for Lin Chujiu. If she can come out to meet him, he will be satisfied.
General Yuan Shao was shocked. He lowered his head and dared not look at Xiao Tianyao again.
He seems to discover something terrible!
Seeing Lin Chujiu waiting in front of the hut dressed up, Xiao Tianyao didn"t speed up. Instead, he walked slower than before. General Yuan Shao, who was following beside him, had just discovered something extraordinary. Naturally, he wouldn"t be surprised but slowed down to match Xiao Tianyao"s footsteps.
Lin Chujiu saw Xiao Tianyao early on. Seeing him coming with a group of people, she felt uneasy.
She had already prepared her speech before, but for some reason, when she saw Xiao Tianyao coming, she found her brain in a mess. She forgot all the words she had prepared before. Her eyes were full of Xiao Tianyao who was coming towards her against the light. She couldn"t remember what she was going to say.
One step, two steps… the distance was just more than 100 meters, Xiao Tianyao walked for a long time, and each step was elegant and n.o.ble, just like an immortal G.o.d descending from the mortal world, and walking slowly towards his followers.
One step, two steps… Against the light, Xiao Tianyao was in a halo. Lin Chujiu could not see his face clearly but knew that the man was coming towards her step by step.
*Badump, badump* Lin Chujiu felt her heart beating fast as if it was going to fly out of her chest.
"What"s wrong with me?" Lin Chujiu looked down at her heart and asked herself silently. But before she could find the answer, she felt like there was a dark cloud on her head, blocking all the light.
Instinctively, she looked up and saw Xiao Tianyao"s magnified handsome face.
Thin, black, dirty, ugly… But Lin Chujiu felt inexplicable that this man was more beautiful.
"w.a.n.gye……" She opened her mouth instinctively. But before she could figure out why, Lin Chujiu felt something cold on her face. The man standing in front of her raised his hand and wiped her face with his fingertips, and said impatiently: "Squeamis.h.!.+"
"I…" Lin Chujiu wanted to explain and tell Xiao Tianyao that she was not squeamish, but looking at Xiao Tianyao"s face, she found that she could not say a word.
All complaints and explanations were so vague and powerless in front of human life.
She was angry that Xiao Tianyao used her. She was angry that he didn"t treat her as a human being. She was angry… very angry, very angry.
But now she has no right to be angry.
She left in a fit of anger and killed her protectors; She escaped from the mountains but dared not face him. She acted recklessly and selfishly, but this man didn"t blame her at all.
He sent troops to pick her up and personally led the troops to seal the Zhang Family"s shops to warn those people who had a bad idea about her.
She knew that Xiao Tianyao didn"t do it just for her sake alone, but… she was still very happy.
She grew up this big but she was rarely so protected by others. Her world was only her, no matter good or bad, whether she was bullied or praised, she can only talk to herself.
Suddenly, there was such a person who didn"t give up on her when she was willful and selfish. Came out to protect her when she was bullied; When she didn"t want to face him, she took the initiative to disappear. When she was ready in her heart, he took the initiative to walk towards her.
Even though this man used her and didn"t care about her life or death, she seemed unable to be as angry as before.
Looking at it from a different aspect, she seems to understand Xiao Tianyao"s approach and choice.
With the life and death of more than 200000 troops on his back, Xiao Tianyao cannot be willful or selfish. His choice must be beneficial to the overall situation. As for individual sacrifice?
In the face of the overall situation, individual sacrifices were inevitable.
"w.a.n.gye, I……" Lin Chujiu looked at Xiao Tianyao"s face, and before she knew it, tears fell down her cheeks.
"Stupid woman!" Xiao Tianyao looked disgusted, but his hand movements were very gentle. Regardless of his subordinates watching, he gently wiped the tears on her face.
This woman was so stupid that she almost sold herself because of some trivial matter, and she still wants to leave him.
Without his protection, this woman would be sold without her knowing.
Lin Chujiu"s tears fell even more fiercely. As if all the grievances had finally vented. She held Xiao Tianyao"s clothes tightly with both hands and cried in a repressed voice: "w.a.n.gye, I"m sorry! I"m sorry! I"m wrong, I killed them, I"m wrong! You punish me!"
During this period, she was driving herself crazy. The guilt of killing her bodyguards protecting her made her unable to enjoy the protection of the Jinwuwei Army with ease, let alone the courage to face Xiao Tianyao.
Before, she could understand intellectually that XiaoTianyao sacrificed her for the overall situation; But emotionally, she can"t accept it. But because of her willfulness had killed her bodyguards, she had no courage to blame Xiao Tianyao.
She was wrong. She knew she was wrong. She will never be willful again. The price of willfulness was too great for her to bear… …
