The dream of a lonely hero

Speaking of which, the man in black slowly uncovered the black brocade and stared at Yan Yun with a pair of almond-shaped eyes. Yan Yun was surprised and said:"Ah! You - it's you Yuanrong."

Zhao Yuanrong didn't bother to explain and asked hurriedly:"How is Huailong's injury?"

Yan Yun was so confused that he didn't have time to ask, and said anxiously:"It's okay. It's just a flesh wound. How are you?"

Zhao Yuanrong said:"It's okay."

Yan Yun said in surprise:"You took a sword and you were unharmed. Could it be that you have practiced invulnerability?"

Zhao Yuanrong said:"If it weren't for you The gift of the 'Auspicious Cloud Qilin Lock' was hung on my chest, and I was pierced by an arrow from you."

After a moment of silence, the two of them looked at each other with confused eyes.

Yan Yun said anxiously,"Why - why did you save Jin Huarong, that killer?"

Yanrong was confused and silent for a moment, then said,"Why did Huailong kill him?"

Yan Yunlei was furious, Said:"Jin Huarong does all kinds of evil, and he is full of evil, and everyone will punish him! You - you save him, you are acting as a tiger and helping the tyrant to do evil!"

Yuanrong looked at the furious and violent man in front of him, and he was different from the simple and kind-hearted person he used to know. He was completely different from the other two, thinking that there must be a reason for this; he said:"You hate Jin Huarong so much, don't you have a grudge against him?"

Yan Yun gritted his teeth:"Grudge! The hatred is as deep as the sea! I drove my uncle to death. , slashed my father with a knife, causing the Yan family to be destroyed and displaced!" Tell the truth about the crimes that Jin Huarong committed against the Yan family nine years ago when he took office in Tuzheng County, Dingzhou;"Such a snake and a scorpion will bury all the conscience. , a murderer who is worse than a beast, you - you actually saved him! You - you - why, why?" The questioning eyes shot into her eyes like two cold rays.

Xianrong was upset and his eyes were dull.

Yan Yun pressed him again and again,"Why? Why? You say it, you say it."

Yuanrong was depressed and said,"Huailong! I'll wait until I think about it."

Yan Yun said,"Wait! Can I wait? These nine The three words"Jin Huarong" are like a sharp sword that cuts my heart all the time. You asked me to wait until you think about it before talking, am I waiting for you?"

Yuan Rong avoided him like a sharp sword. eyes, sitting weakly on the chair. Yan Yun was so anxious that he grabbed the Qinglong Sword on the ground and said,"It's okay if you don't tell me, I'm going to take Jin Huarong's life again!"

Resentful Rong stood up and said:"Huailong! Jin Huarong is My father."

Yan Yun was suddenly stunned and cast an extremely doubtful look.

Yuan Rong said slowly:"My real name is Jin Zhumei. When I was eight years old, Liao soldiers sacked Tuzheng County. My father took my mother, me, and my younger brother to escape in panic. Unfortunately, my younger brother died in the rebellion. Two months later, my father took refuge with Li Weidong, the governor of Anguo. Li Weidong's widowed sister Li Weiqing shamelessly insisted on marrying my father. My father divorced his wife and my mother in order to pursue wealth and wealth. My mother hanged herself in anger. I am not ashamed of what my father did to divorce her. He ran away from home; after more than a year of wandering, he was adopted by the prime minister by chance. I went to assassinate the evil woman Li Weiqing tonight, but I never expected to meet you."

Yan Yun stared at her blankly, deceiving himself and others, and said:"No! No! , this is not true."

Yurong said:"Huailong, this - this, how could I hope this is true!"

Yan Yun had mixed feelings and wondered: The lover who was passionately in love turned out to be the biological daughter of the enemy who killed his father. Is it because She is Jin Zhumei, and the sworn hatred ends here - no, never!

Resentful Rong said:"Huailong, you - you! I am deeply ashamed of what Jin Huarong did, but - but he is my father after all."

Yan Yun said:"Shameless! Is it just shameless? Jin Huarong was not only Yan Yun's enemy, but he wiped out the ground wherever he went. The people of Tuzheng County and Sanchu Prefecture were to some extent ruined by him. He allowed his godson to go around the countryside to steal, extort, and steal the people's wealth and support. Jin Huarong's immortality will not be tolerated by heaven and earth!"

Yuanrong's heart was up and down. She, who had always been lively and outgoing, became silent and depressed. She thought for a long time. She stood up and held his hand. She looked at him expectantly and said:"I - I'm not Jin Zhumei, you are not Yan Yun. Let’s abandon everything in front of us and fly away, find a paradise for you and me to cultivate and live in for the rest of our lives, okay!"

Human beings are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless. Yan Yun looked at her with tears streaming down her face, pondered for a while, and couldn't help but shed tears. Qianrong took out a sweat towel and gently wiped the tears on his face.

Yan Yun blocked her hand, slowly shook his head, and said:"This is all fate!" His face slowly turned cold, and he said coldly:"You may not be Jin Zhumei or Zhao Yunrong, but there is no way I am not Yan Yun Yan Huai Long! From now on, no, now you go your way, I will cross my bridge, and we will have nothing to do with each other." He turned around with a fierce look and a ferocious face, and said sternly:"Jin Huarong will die! You will die! If you want to be buried for him, God will help you!" After saying that, he turned to the wall.

The person he loved so much, Yan Yun, actually had an sworn feud with his father. Yan Yun's severance and cruelty like a wolf made him so unfamiliar. This cruel reality made him resentful, his heart was pounding, and his face was pale and his hands and feet were cold all of a sudden."Thump" and fell to the ground. Yan Yun quickly helped her to the chair. She woke up after a while, exhausted and said:"I-I'm fine." Taking advantage of Yan Yun's protection, she quickly pulled out her Danfeng Sword and placed it across her neck, saying:"You-you are so ruthless, why am I born?" Huan."

Yan Yun said hurriedly:"No - no" With quick eyes and quick hands, he blocked her wrist with a palm, and the Danfeng Sword fell to the ground with a clang, but the Danfeng Sword still hurt her neck, leaving a shallow blood mark. Yan Yun held a sweat towel to wipe her, but she blocked it.

Yuan Rong said:"What do you want?"

Yan Yun said:"I want you to be good."

Yuan Rong said:"You and I have nothing to do with each other anymore, why should you care about me?"

Yan Yun said:"Even if we can't move forward Fate, after all, we are friends, and I wish you well."

Yuan Rong said:"Is it really not possible?"

Yan Yun said:"Think about it, Jin Huarong is your biological father, but he and I have a sworn relationship. If I don't kill him, I will be sorry for my father's soul in heaven. If I kill him, can you feel at ease with an enemy who killed your father?"

Yuan Rong said:"Is there no other choice?"

Yan Yun said:"All of this It's life."

There was a long silence between the two parties. After that, Yan Yun was afraid that she would be surprised, so he sent her to Zhao Yuanchun's guest room and hurried back to rest.

That night, Zhao Yuanchun was tossing and turning, thinking that Yan Yun and Yan Rong were acting abnormally in Jin's house. After midnight, he heard movement in Yan Yun's room. He thought something must be going on, and he couldn't be disturbed, so he could only wait and see what happened. Yuan Chun heard a knock on the door and heard that the voice was that of Yuan Rong. Chun Rong, the maid in the side room, was already asleep. When she opened the door, she saw Yuan Rong and Yan Yun wearing night clothes. She was shocked, but she welcomed them in as if nothing had happened. Yan Yun just said hello and left in a hurry. Yuan Chun and Yuan Rong entered the master bedroom. Yuan Rong then locked the door and knelt down to Yuan Chun.

Yuan Chun was surprised and hurriedly helped her, saying,"Why is my sister like this?"

Yuan Rong looked apologetic and said,"Please forgive me for the crime of deception."

Yuan Chun said kindly,"We sisters don't need to be polite, just say what you want.."

Yuanrong burst into tears and said,"I have deceived the princess and the Prime Minister for nine years. Please forgive me!" Yuan

Chun said,"Sister, get up quickly and speak slowly." He helped her sit on the kang. along.

Yuan Rong said:"Nine years ago, my parents did not die in the Liao bandits' jianta disaster in Tuzheng County. My original name was Jin Zhumei, and the current Luozhou Metropolitan School is my father.——"Tell us the whole story and what happened that night."I hope the Princess will forgive me!"

Yuan Chun said with a smile:"Silly sister! Just say silly things. Are you and I sisters more like flesh and blood than flesh and blood? You have your own reasons for having secrets. Isn't my sister an unreasonable person?

" The tears of gratitude could not stop flowing down her cheeks, and she said,"Master Xiang-will--will you forgive me?"

Yuan Chun said:"Sister, think about it, my parents have treated you as their own for more than ten years. All kinds of care, I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart! If you hadn't fallen down on the Lianliangou Plank Road, and Daddy's carriage stopped urgently, it was saved from being destroyed by the thieves pushing down the rolling boulders from the Lianlian Mountain. You You are the lucky star of my Zhao family! Why won't dad forgive you?"

Yuanrong thought of what happened back then and said,"That's too much praise! That was the prime minister's great fortune. When night was approaching, I was looking for a village in a hurry. I fell down while rushing on the road and shocked the prime minister. Thanks to the master, I killed the thieves who came down from the mountain and kept the prime minister safe and sound. How could I dare to be greedy for God's credit!"

Yuan Chun comforted her again. Yuan Rong's mind calmed down a little, but the hatred between his lover Yan Yun and his biological father Jin Huarong rose again in his heart. He said uneasily:"Sister! Huai Long and my father, what should I do if they call me?"

Yuan Chun thought for a long time and said"I'll talk to him tomorrow."

Yuan Rong looked at her with longing eyes and said,"Is that okay?"

Yuan Chun said,"I'll give it a try."

The next morning, Yuan Chun came to Yan Yun's guest room, and both parties saluted. After finishing, the waiter presented the best tea and fruits and hurriedly left. Both parties took their seats. Yuan Chun looked at him with a resolute expression and said:"Yan Yun! You have told me all your grievances. You want to take revenge and kill Jin Huarong. It is reasonable and reasonable, but is it legal? Jin Huarong's crimes are so heinous that he has his own laws in the Song Dynasty. Punishment, what will you do after you go your own way and kill him? A sixth-rank local official of the imperial court was assassinated, and there will be a thorough investigation. When the truth comes out, where will you go? Prince Liang is being squeezed out by his opponents in the court, and it will be difficult to protect you. You are on the run, why do you ask your father to live in the open with you all over the world? Can your father stand up to such a torment? How can you realize your ambition of"rescuing people in need and helping people in danger and reporting them to the country for peace and prosperity"?"

Yan Yun pondered: Back then, my mother He repeatedly warned not to seek revenge, that is, not to use political means to seek revenge, but to rely on the court's laws to bring the thief Jin Huarong to justice. He also reminded himself from time to time that seeing his enemy at large was unbearable, and he felt that assassinating Jin Huarong was reckless.

Yuan Chun looked at the slightly touched expression on his face and asked,"Does Prince Liang know about this?"

Yan Yun said,"The prince once sent people to conduct a secret investigation. It is difficult to find out the old case nine years ago. Alas.!"

Yuan Chundao comforted:"You are the person who can help the king. Your enemy, the king, will not stand idly by. It's just that he is demoted to Zhangzhou now because he has more than enough intentions and lacks ability, but sooner or later he will give you a satisfactory answer."

Yuan Chun could actually use his father, the Prime Minister, to thoroughly investigate Jin Huarong's adultery, but after all, Yan Yun is a subordinate of his younger brother, Prince Liang. The Prime Minister's involvement would make Prince Liang feel that Prime Minister Zhao Pu is looking down on him, and how much he would do. It is inconvenient, and Jin Huarong is the biological father of his sister Yunrong; no matter what, he cannot get involved in this matter.

Yan Yun seemed to be saying to himself,"It can only - it can only be this way."

Yuan Chun said:"Good and evil will be rewarded in the end."

The next day, Yuan Chun asked Yuan Rong and Yan Yun to take a detour to the Qiu Sheng Inn in Ganniuzhai. Return to the white jade neighing wind horse and black black horse, and then meet at Cuigaiji Guanghan Tower. Jin Huarong was frightened that night and couldn't get out of bed all day. He asked his wife Li Weiqing and several maids to bring some gifts to Yuan Chun and others every morning and evening to greet them. On the morning after Yuan Rong and Yan Yun left, Yuan Chun and her maid went to Jin Mansion to bid farewell to Jin Huarong and his wife. Jin Huarong and his wife carefully sent Yuan Chun and his entourage to Shili Changting, bid farewell and returned home. Along the way, Jin Huarong was scolded by Li Weiqing, so there is no need to go into details. Pei Ji and Mi Chao drove two carriages, Yuan Chun was riding in one and the other was loaded with goods. The maid Chunrong followed Yuan Chun's carriage and headed towards Cuigaiji along the official road.

It is said that Yuan Rong and Yan Yun were each preoccupied and taciturn during the journey. Qianrong kept thinking, can the friendship with Yan Yun continue? Yan Yun was completely different that night from before. Is it his true intention to be so ruthless? Does he really not miss the past friendship at all? My father is illegal, but after all, he is the only flesh and blood relative in the world. I don’t want him to die unexpectedly, let alone Yan Yun’s hands. Seeing Yan Yun’s determination not to give up until he achieves his goal, Prince Liang will definitely use the laws of the Song Dynasty to serve Yan in the future. Yun takes revenge, how long can his father live? These - why do I have to encounter these? It's just like what Yan Yun said,"This is all fate"!

Faced with the infatuated resentment, Yan Yun's mood was even more lingering and pathos, but his reason told him that he must cut off this love. Come to think of it, it was not easy to do it. From time to time, he used the corner of his eyes to glance at her frowning face. With a peach cheek face and a pink face, she hesitated to speak but was silent. There was only silence.

The two people had various feelings intertwined in their hearts. They were confused and excited, but their faces were as cold as frost.

Not long ago, the two of them came to Qiu Sheng Inn in Ganniuzhai, where they rested for a night each. The next day, they paid silver to redeem white jade neighing horses and black horses. They went towards Cuigaiji and arrived at Cuigaiji in the evening. After dinner at the Lou Inn, at around 20:00, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Yan Yun lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He walked downstairs to the hall, picked up a table and sat down. He asked the waiter to order some side dishes and two jugs of wine, and poured himself a glass of wine to drown his sorrows. The lobby on the first floor of Guanghan Building was bustling with lights, feasting, and guests. A charming woman came to Yan Yun's table and cooed,"Master! It's so lonely to drink alone. Come on, girl, have a drink with you!" She hugged Yan Yun casually.

Yan Yun was just Yun Chou Hai Si Jian and pushed her away. She fell to the ground and cried loudly, saying:"Bullying people! Bullying people! I didn't provoke you, why did you beat me! You bully who bullies good and fears evil!" rolling on the ground. After a while, several guests gathered around for dinner, all talking,"Why are you, a tall and dignified man, having trouble with a little girl?""

"What about jinv! Jinv is also a human being, you are just pretending to be aloof, there is no way you should fight!"

"well! It's hard enough for others to fall into the trap of prostitution, why shouldn't you add insult to injury?"

"What happened to having money! If you have money, you should insult people! Yan

Yun was not interested in distinguishing between each other. He left his seat and bent down to help the woman. She could not survive. Yan Yun said:"What do you want?"

The woman yelled bitterly:"You beat me like this and you ask me what you want!" If you have the guts to beat me to death, then you are considered to have the guts, come and beat me! Yan Yun said:"

If you have anything to say, talk about it later.""

The woman said:"You are so stupid that you can stand and talk without pain in your back. My bones have been broken by you, how can I still get up?

The onlooker next to him smiled at Yan Yun and said,"Brother, just pick her up."

The woman cursed:"Bah!" This dirty laundry has made me dirty. How can I, a yellow flower girl like me, get married?

The onlooker next to him asked:"Could it be possible to ask him to marry you?"

The woman said:"How can he deserve to eat swan farts if he is so poor?""

The onlooker next to him said to Yan Yun:"Brother, let's forget about it with some silver coins."

Yan Yun was blackmailed by the shrew, but there was nothing he could do, so he took out some scraps of silver and gave it to her. The woman said sternly:"You are the only one who wants to beg for food! How can I survive if my muscles and bones are broken for a hundred days? He cried loudly again.

Yan Yun said:"I will get it for you when I return to the room."

The woman immediately stood up, grabbed Yan Yun and said,"What if you run away?"

Yan Yun said,"Follow me to get it. It's upstairs."

The woman said:"No!" What if you seek sex and kill yourself?"

Yan Yun said to the onlookers next to him:"Excuse me, please accompany me upstairs to get some silver for her."

The onlooker said:"It's OK, but I haven't eaten well. What's the point of running around with me like never before?

Yan Yun said:"Your Majesty!" I have my own reward."

The onlookers happily followed Yan Yun upstairs to get the silver coins with the woman. When they arrived at Yan Yun's guest room, the woman got ten taels of silver after some bargaining and left satisfied.
