Empty hate, dilemma

Chapter 9

Lian Yu returned to the General's Mansion full of doubts, and couldn't think of a reason for King Jing's various behaviors! ! ! !Wasn't King Jing trying to win Lian's family over on purpose, or was he testing Lian's family under the King of Chu's favor? Then why did he find himself instead of his two elder brothers? Are you looking for yourself, or want to test? ?Or does King Jing think he is easier to attack? ? ? ? ?No matter what, before you figure out King Jing's intentions, you can only wait and see what happens! ! ! ! ?

If there is any mistake, then even the family members will not be able to live.

Lianyu had to guard against King Jing. In fact, the entire government and the public knew that King Jing's return to Beijing was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface. At the same time, Lianyu had to figure out the relationship between King Jing and King Chu as soon as possible.We must find out the real intention of King Jing's return to Beijing. This is closely related to the Lian family. If we can't find out, then we will only be controlled by others. One day, hundreds of people in the Lian family will have to wait to die.

The Lian family is already the fourth generation from Lianyu's generation, and they have all had generals in Chu State.Counting up to four generations of the Lian family, most of the Lian family's sons are in the army, no matter how much military exploits are, no matter how big or small the official position is, the sons of the Lian family seem to be born for war, and they are born to guard the frontier No matter how big or small a battle is, there must be a Lian family in every battle. The Lian family is also very important in every family, because this is what the Lian family paid for with their lives. This should belong to the glory of the Lian family. ! ! ! !

Therefore, the strength of the Lian family in the Chu army cannot be ignored. Even the royal family has to pay more to the Lian family. There are countless people offended in the capital, and it is not a big deal at any time, but in the capital, even if the people of Chu State feel shameless, they will not be too embarrassing. In exchange.But in Lian Yu's generation, apart from Lian Yu's family, even the offshoots of Lian Yu's family are almost dead.Even the family is very united, because Lian Jiaerlang knew that one day he would be buried in this yellow sandy land since he was in the army, and he only hoped that the family or the monarch would take pity on my wife and children.The Lian family has an unwritten family rule. If the Lian family's son dies on the battlefield, that is a good death. The horse leather shroud is the honor. Never regretted it! ! ! ! ! !

And Lianyu is the only man in his generation who didn't join the army. Everyone said that Lianyu didn't join the army because of his congenital deficiency and poor system, maybe! ! ! ! !

As for the royal family of the Chu Kingdom, if it is a troubled time, with such tyrannical force and such a fearless general, who would dislike it, and which king would be dissatisfied? The stronger the better, this is a necessary condition for establishing a country.But the current state of Chu is already a big country, and since the current monarch succeeded to the throne, the state of Chu is safe and peaceful, and no other country dares to invade, and the King of Chu has no desire to expand its territory.

Well, for the royal family of Chu State, which has been pacified for more than ten years, the powerful position in the hands of the Lian family members, in addition to being able to prevent the outside world and secure the inside, also has a dreadful effect, which is the impact on the reserve position and the royal family. threaten.Because His Majesty today had thought of taking advantage of this power, but the General Lian at that time did not express his opinion, and he was once blackened because His Majesty was not the crown prince himself. Anyone understands better that if such a tyrannical military force cannot be held in their hands, it will be a variable, and such a tyrannical variable is something that the king can bear! ! ! ! ?The roots of the Lian family are already too big, as long as they are used by others, or as long as the Lian family has a heart, then it is probably time for the Chu royal family to change their names.

Judging from the behavior of the royal family towards the Lian family in the past few years, even the general knew that the Lian family might end soon.Although the Lian family has always had the ancestral precepts that the Lian family members must never interfere with the battle for succession at any time, but the ancestors of the Lian family also understood that there are certain things that cannot be determined by whether you do or don’t do it. Not guilty, pregnant with guilt! !The faults of the town master Gonggao have existed since ancient times, how can it be limited to the Lian family? ? ?

There is a saying from the ancestors that when it is absolutely necessary, members of the Lian family can resign from office and go back to hiding. Even the general also mentioned resigning, but people in the royal family have always preferred to kill the wrong than let it go. The people retreated completely, and the Lian family has been soaked in the army of Chu State for so many generations, and now it is no longer worth a single military badge. If you want to say that the entire Chu State, except for the King of Chu, only Lian The general alone is the one who can mobilize the army without the military order and tiger talisman!So if you want to retreat, how to retreat has become a difficult problem. It can be said that the members of the Lian family will not die, and the King of Chu must not sleep peacefully! ! ! ! ! !

And Lian Yu was the last move made by General Lian in order to preserve the blood of the Lian family.Lian Yu was sent to Da'an Mountain when she was very young, and Lian Yu was born with poor health, so Lian Yu had a reasonable excuse for not joining the army.When Lian Yu was born, the imperial physician from the palace took the pulse and knew that Lian Yu was born with deficiencies, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to support him, so General Lian used this excuse to send Lian Yu to Da'an Mountain as a matter of course, until he was 13 years old. Take it back to Shangjing.

And whether Lianyu's dandy is true or not, not too many people will care. If it is true, it is nothing more than raising an idler. If not, it doesn't matter in the eyes of the royal family. He can do it, and it is just one more death, which is easier for the royal family than eating a meal.

When Lianyu returned home, he went straight to his mother's yard, and the servants were already used to it.

Lian Yu came first before anyone arrived, "Mother, mother, mother, I'm back"

The general's wife is the happiest to see Lian Yu, who told him that he is the youngest son, and he has been raised outside since he was a child, and now that he finally came back, he will always be more affectionate than others.When the general's wife heard the sound, she hurriedly put down what she was doing, and walked straight to the door, "Slow down, slow down, you little monkey, what should you do if you fell so fast..."

As soon as Lian Yu saw his mother, she began to act like a baby, and hugged the general's wife, "Mother, I miss you so much."

The general's wife was amused, "You little monkey, you're talking nonsense again, I haven't seen you for a few hours, what are you thinking about?"

Lian Yu pouted and pretended to be cute, "I'll miss you when I don't see you for a while, don't you miss me?" Blinking her big eyes, she looked at the general's wife.

The general's wife was amused by him, and even Yu's two sister-in-laws were also amused by him.When the general's wife gave birth to Lianyu, she suffered from a serious illness, so she was weaker and seldom went out. Lianyu's two sisters-in-law would accompany her whenever they had time.

Although the Lian family has a small population, the family lives very well. They rarely look like other families and have all sorts of back issues. Lian Yu's two sister-in-laws are mostly gentle people. , so everything in the family is fine except Lianyu Tainao! ! !

Because the Lian family has always used marrying a wife and a virtuous person as an example. When the Lian family marries a wife, they don't ask about their family background, not about their concubines, but about their temperament. That's why the daughters of the Lian family have such a harmonious temperament. It's a pity that Lianyu is not a daughter. If it is a daughter, it will be more in line with the wishes of General Lian and his wife.

Lianyu quarreled in the general's wife's house for a while, and then his father and two elder brothers came back. The whole family had dinner in the general's wife's courtyard, and when the meal was finished, it was already the moonlight. .

Lian Yu didn't leave, and after his two older brothers took the sisters-in-law away, he told his father about King Jing in private, and the general also looked suspicious when he found out.

Even the general was full of doubts, and couldn't figure out what King Jing meant. "Ayu, did King Jing do anything special to you, or say something special????"

Lian Yu frowned, "No, so I don't really understand the purpose of King Jing giving me the token!!!"

"King Jing, this is the only one alive among all the uncles of His Majesty today. His survival to this day should be related to his being away from home since he was a child. Even the first emperor never thought of taking him back when he was in power, but now he is You came back suddenly, the more you think about it, the more weird it becomes, there must be a monster if something goes wrong, and now all the officials in the court are staring at King Jing, even if he is not familiar with Shangjing, he should have heard of you Actually, he is not close to anyone, on the contrary, he shows kindness to you for no reason...it is really puzzling." Even the general can't figure it out. Come on, the Lian family is probably the most involved, anyway, Ayu, you should avoid provoking him."

Lian Yu nodded, "Well, I know Daddy."

General Lian stood in front of the window, looking at the bright moon in the sky, "The moon is bright and the stars are sparse tonight, it seems that tomorrow will be a good weather... Ayu, have you ever blamed your father?? Send you to Da'an Mountain since you were a child? ??"

Lian Yu looked at the back of General Lian, who was still standing still, her father was still the same father, and had never changed, "Daddy, I know that you are doing it for my own good. Anyway, I was born in Lian's family, so I have my own responsibility." , so I never blamed my father."

General Lian turned around and looked directly into Lian Yu's eyes, "Ayu, you can understand the truth that prosperity must decline. Although the Lian family has meritorious service for generations and made great military exploits, this has become the piece of jade cherished by the Lian family. Since you were still young, you were sent to Da'an Mountain, and your parents didn't ask for any great achievements from you. If one day... when you are the only one left in the family, your father only wishes you a lifetime of well-being, do you understand??? "

How could Lian Yu not understand, ever since Lian Yu could speak, General Lian taught Lian Yu like this, how could he not remember "Yes, Daddy, Lian Yu knows..." But I am not reconciled, nor am I willing! ! ! !Lian Yu didn't say the second half of the sentence, because he knew it was not what Dad wanted to hear, but what Dad wanted to hear, so there was no need to say it, so why bother to say it! ! !

General Lian looked deeply at Lian Yu. Even though his son had been estranged for many years, how could he not understand? You can't judge the country, let alone kill the king, do you understand???"

Lian Yu frowned, and looked at General Lian with sharp eyes. What he disliked most was the foolish loyalty of his father and elder brother. Lian Yu refused to admit defeat and refused to back down. Grinding their teeth, refusing to retreat and not daring to enter, the atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became very delicate...

"Oh, what are you father and son doing? You're staring, Ayu, you're making your father angry again??? Little monkey!!" The general's wife saw the father and son as soon as she came in from the door. The big-eyed and small-eyed ones thought that Lianyu was causing trouble again and was busy smoothing things over.

Lian Yu pouted, acting like a spoiled child to the general's wife with a little grievance, "Mother, Daddy is going to scold me again..."

General Lian received too many accusations from Lian Yuhao for no reason, but he still felt a little annoyed, "Little bastard, you have no conscience, huh..."

After the general's wife crossed the line, the father and son skipped the conversation just now, and Lianyu planned to go back to the room to sleep after coquettishly. Before leaving, I replied to General Lian for no reason, "Don't worry, Daddy, I will be good, okay, mother, I will go back too, you should go to bed earlier, remember to leave me a meal tomorrow morning, I want to eat Roasted Chicken with Drunk Fragrance, Hehehe..."

General Lian looked at Lian Yu's back laughing as he walked away, thinking of something, with a wry smile on his face...

Lian Yu asked his father not to tell his two elder brothers, lest they worry.And the general also knew that it would be useless to say anything before things became clear, so he agreed to Lian Yu.

Afterwards, Lian Yu returned to her courtyard. Lian Yu stood in the courtyard and looked at the moon in the night sky. She was so full of thoughts that she didn't know who to tell.

The bright moon in the night sky remains unchanged for a hundred years, but things in this world are changing rapidly. Melancholy.Thinking that his Lian family has produced good generals for generations, for this Chu country, almost all members of the Lian family died, but in the end he ended up as a town lord with great merit, how can I not feel sad! ! !

People often say "Time is also fate", so what about yourself?What about the Lian family?What did I do wrong?Why such a result?Is it true that even family members kill too many people on the battlefield?Or is this really the ultimate destiny of the Lian family? ? ?Can it really only be swayed by the wind and trampled by others? ? ? ?

"Hehehe...hehehe, it's really sad, ridiculous, lamentable, it's really a big joke in the world, hehehe..." Lian Yu seemed to be a little crazy, half laughing and crying.

Make the servants who see it look sideways again and again, and ignore it if they don't understand.Sir, this is it? ?Drinking again? ? ? ? ?drunk? ? ? ? ?

The Lian family has been loyal to the king for generations, and has always been kind and loving to the people.Every time there was a war, even if he knew he would lose his family's life, even the sons of the family never showed up to refuse orders or refuse to invite wars, and his father never thought of rebellion.It's good now, the master is overshadowed by his achievements, it's ridiculous! ! ! ! ! !If this is destiny, then this is God's blindness. Even if I, Lianyu, will be spurned by the world and be stigmatized for thousands of years, I will never allow others to treat the lives of the Lian family as worthless, never! ! ! ! !

Later Lian Yu wanted to laugh whenever he thought of these things, laughing at the injustice of the heavens, laughing at the unscrupulous king! ! ! ! ! !

Yes, what a sad fact, who can accept it, a family of Shi Zhongliang is just a victim of a generation of imperial power.

Since ancient times, how thin the king is, the most ruthless emperor's family.

But no matter how wronged, the royal family will never allow future generations to leave a single bit of self-destructive memory.Even if you know that you are wrong, you will never correct it, and you have never thought about repenting. How can future generations know?

For the sake of the Chu royal family and the people of Chu, General Lian never thought of rebelling, but for the sake of the Lian family's century-old reputation, he also knew that the Lian family should retire, but how to go there? ? ? ? ?

So keeping Lianyu's life alive is the last move of the Lian family, and it is also the last extravagant hope, even if it costs the entire Lian family.This is what makes Lian Yu feel the saddest and most powerless...
