Six-tailed love

Chapter 52

When Rong Ying saw Rong Jue appearing, she immediately jumped up.

"You're back so soon? Done?"

Rong Jue said coyly: "Fourteen, actually... I think that Dongfang Tuo is pretty good, why don't you just follow him..."

Rong Ying's face darkened: "I told you to seduce him, why did you get seduced by him instead?!"

"Ahem, Fourteen, Second Sister, I've never seen any man before. That man's true feelings for you, I can tell right away."

Rong Ying sat down on the chair and ignored her.

Rong Jue went around to Rongying, and said with a smile: "Fourteen, I didn't get nothing, I got a piece of news. When I went to find Dongfang Tuo this time, he was waiting for Lin Changjing. At the moment, he sees Lin Changjing alone and doesn't know what to do?"

Rong Ying frowned when she heard the words, and thought in her heart, Dongfang Tuo is not an easy person to deal with, Lin Changjing is afraid that there will be trouble if he meets him before the battle.No, she had to go and have a look.

The chessboard is full of pieces, and there are several messenger soldiers kneeling outside the pavilion.The battle reports from ahead kept coming, and the two people in the pavilion were silent, no one understood how they could still keep calm and fight chess at such a tense moment.

Another messenger soldier ran up and knelt down to report: "Report!——The Qing army blocked our army's way from the east and west wings, and it was difficult for our army to break through!"

Dongfang Tuo and Lin Changjing still didn't look at the Messenger Soldier, they stared at the chessboard closely, as if they didn't care about the situation of the battle.In fact, Lin Changjing's heart has already had a lot of fluctuations.The coaches of the two sides seem to be sitting here playing chess, but in fact they have already planned the battle.It is said that the battlefield is changing rapidly, but Dongfang Tuo seems to be able to predict every move of the opponent, forcing you to do nothing.Fortunately, Lin Changjing had already thought of several countermeasures and told Guo Enliang that as long as he followed his instructions, there shouldn't be any major problems.I'm afraid that Dongfang Tuo is full of tricks. If he fails to predict his actions, he will not know whether Guo Enliang can handle the following things.

"Block the east and west wings, and then cross the river to attack the few remaining Chen troops in front. When the Chen troops on the east and west wings got news and returned to the camp for rescue, they occupied the east and west hills and encircled them with their opposite wings. That's what you think, I said. right?"

Lin Changjing was startled, and looked up at Dongfang Tuo.

Dongfang Tuo didn't look up, but just stared at the chessboard, as if he was thinking about his next move.

"Do you know why I haven't made any big moves after camping opposite you for so long? Do you think that I am here to delay the deployment of soldiers to raid Xiyan Pass and the eastern valley? , is much easier than attacking the city from the outside..."

"Report! - The enemy guard Guo Enliang has opened the city gate, and our army has occupied Pingyi City!"

Dongfang Tuo dropped the last chess piece and said, "You lost."

Lin Changjing never dreamed that Guo Enliang opened the city gate for the enemy!Suspicion and anger hit his forehead, his fists were clenched, and his veins were exposed.

Dongfang Tuo glanced at him indifferently, and said: "In the past ten days, in addition to deploying the military formations on both sides of the east and west, I have also done a very important thing - to take Guo Enliang's old mother, wife and children back." Received 'to our army."

Lin Changjing was stunned.

"I also promised him a good future, of course in Kingdom Chen."

"Despicable!" Lin Changjing suppressed his anger.

"Despicable? Heh, I have always been a despicable person, but my despicableness can bring the greatest benefits to the Chen Kingdom. Soldiers never tire of cheating, and are willing to bet and admit defeat. It's time for you to fulfill your promise."

Lin Changjing closed his eyes, and suddenly let out a burst of laughter, and then he opened his eyes, his gaze was drawn like a sharp sword.He suddenly pulled out the saber beside a messenger soldier and swung it towards his neck.The moment he faced death, a pretty face flashed in front of his eyes, and a trace of tenderness instantly appeared in his resolute eyes.It's just a pity that I will never have the chance to see her again...

"Slow down!" Dongfang Tuo stopped Lin Changjing coldly.

Lin Changjing paused, his eyes turned cold: "What else can I say?"

"You don't have to die, and I can also return ten of the cities that occupied you. There is only one condition—" After a pause, Dongfang Tuo said word by word: "Sever ties with Rongying."

With a sound of "clang", the sword fell to the ground. Lin Changjing looked at Dongfang Tuo in disbelief, thinking he had heard it wrong.

Dongfang Tuo asked someone to bring a pen stand, and there was a piece of paper with writing on it. He pointed to the paper and said to Lin Changjing: "If you draw a bet on this, I will immediately retreat. And the seal will be returned to you."

"My lord is such a joke?" Lin Changjing couldn't believe it.

"In your heart, isn't one Rongying worth ten cities?" Dongfang Tuo asked.

Lin Changjing's heart was touched, and he said sadly: "For Lin Changjing, not to mention ten cities, even the whole Qingguo cannot change Rongying. But for the generals of Qingguo, the descendants of the Lin family... the state affairs and the people's livelihood are far more important than Children's personal relationship is important."

Dongfang Tuo couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Yes, it is indeed difficult to make a choice. However, you have to make a decision today."

"I still have one thing that I don't understand. Can you decide on such a big matter as retreating?"

Dongfang Tuo smiled: "If the emperor knew, he would never let me do this. I know the consequences of doing so. The emperor will punish me, and the world will scold me for being deceived by beauty, licentiousness and disaster for the country."

"Then you?..." Lin Changjing frowned, he didn't believe that Dongfang Tuo would suffer such a crime for Rongying.It's not because he thinks that Dongfang Tuo doesn't value Rong Ying enough, it's just that he already got her, so there's really no need to do anything more.

Sure enough, Dongfang Tuo said: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you pledge or not, because it is impossible for her to return to your side. I did this deliberately to let the emperor punish me, and deliberately let the world scold me."

Lin Changjing was puzzled.

Dongfang Tuo went on to say: "If the merit is too high, the king can't tolerate it. My young nephew has long been unable to see me, and he has been thinking of ways to kill me all day long. Now that Dongfang Bo has just died, I am here It can be said that the court is covering the sky with one hand, so he can't sit still. We are uncle and nephew, and I can't bear to watch him go to great lengths to kill me, so I might as well make a crime for myself, stay away from the court, and spend a few days at leisure. "

Lin Changjing narrowed his eyes: "It's really clever to retreat to advance."

"Thank you." Dongfang Tuo twitched his lips, "I've already answered your question, now it's time for you to make a choice."

"Since you have already planned everything, what does it matter if I draw or not?"

"If you draw the bet, Ah Ying will give up on you. This is of course the result I want."

Lin Changjing sighed and stretched out his thumb to get the red mud on it.But when he was about to press his fingerprints, he still didn't move.He was aware of Dongfang Tuo's conspiracy, but what would Rong Ying think when she saw this letter of resignation?Suddenly, Lin Changjing pressed his finger down, leaving a red fingerprint on the paper.But Lin Changjing looked at the fingerprint but lost his mind. How did he press it just now?It seems that my mind is in a trance?But he didn't think much about it, he just stared at the bright red fingerprint in a daze, he just... sold Rong Ying? ...

Dongfang Tuo, who was standing aside, could see more clearly. He obviously felt that Lin Changjing's actions just now were controlled by external forces. He couldn't help but frowned, thinking about something.After a while, Dongfang Tuo said to a messenger soldier: "Send my order, retreat!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers didn't question anything, apparently well-trained puppets who knew nothing but carrying out orders.Dongfang Tuo waved back the other messenger soldiers, and then said to Lin Changjing who was sitting there in a daze, "You can go."

Lin Changjing stood up, his feet were filled with lead, and walked down the mountain with heavy steps.As he was walking, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed loudly. The voice sounded very sad and made people shudder.

After Lin Changjing's figure disappeared, Dongfang Tuo said to the void, "Why are you doing this?"

Rong Ying's figure gradually appeared, she stared at the front with a pale complexion, and asked, "Isn't this exactly what you want?"

"Do you think I'm mean?"

"I have learned about your despicableness a long time ago."

"Yes, I'm despicable, but Lin Changjing is upright, so what can he defend?"

Rong Ying's expression darkened, and she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

"You make the decision for him because you are actually afraid of seeing the result you don't want to see?" Dongfang Tuo asked again.

"You guessed wrong this time." Rong Ying said, "No matter what decision he makes, I won't blame him, because you forced him to be like this. I made the decision for him because I know he is very sad. Hesitate, the pain of making a difficult decision passes as quickly as possible."

"I'm afraid that different routes lead to the same goal."

"No, he is Lin Changjing, and he will never be depressed because of his children's personal relationship. This piece of thin paper has severed the relationship between the two of us. From then on, he will gradually forget me, and I will treat him peacefully. By your side, so you are satisfied?"
