Six hundred and eightieth IX Turning faces
If it were mentioned before, Jing Gang's aura would have weakened. He would not be so arrogant in this life, but he could be said to be worthy of his heart most of the time. However, because he kidnapped this woman in a critical moment, he had a series of consequences. He had known that he would rather have someone to be caught and cut into pieces than to get rid of this woman.
When he was held hostage, he did not want to hurt the innocent. He was a man who did something and did not do anything. He thought that he was just scaring the pursuers and soldiers. Even if the officers and soldiers did not let him go, he would not hurt the hostages.
He was a rough man. At that time, he didn't expect that there was something more important than life for a noble woman, that was a reputation. When someone was taken away from the city, the reputation of this woman was destroyed. Even if she was not as big as the pig cages that were sweating in the countryside, she would have to be sent to the temple. It would be better to kill her directly. After so many years of this incident, he had been feeling guilty.
However, after following General Zhao over the years, he has come into contact with many people, so he feels that the so-called reputation and honor are just an excuse to seek more benefits. A woman's reputation is more important than anything else. Rather than saying that a woman is interested in reputation, it is more of a benefit brought by the reputation. If a reputation cannot bring benefits, then this reputation is worthless.
He had seen something like that. Once, a team leader of his subordinates saved a young lady from a scholarly family. The family was robbed by bandits on their way to get married. The lady fell off the carriage and was about to die under the horse's hooves. The team leader happened to arrive and pulled the lady from a family up and drove away the bandits. Who knew that the family had just saved their lives and said that the team leader had ruined the lady's reputation and asked the team leader to be responsible.
Isn't it just a woman? It's okay to marry her, but the team leader has already married her. Of course, there is nothing wrong with a man with three wives and four concubines. Not many of them will be sent to her for free and will refuse them pretentiously. Anyway, the team leader's scoundrel is served by his parents at home. The team leader is very young and appreciated by his superiors. This time, the bandit suppression has made great contributions and is about to be promoted to a general. In the troubled times, military generals are much more popular than civil officials.
Of course, everything comes first and then comes. Since the team leader has married, the rescued lady can only be a concubine. She was supposed to say that fame is important, but also said that the grace of saving lives should be repaid with the fragrance of the spring immediately said again, saying that their family has been in a scholarly family for generations, and their daughters must not be a concubine.
After a lot of trouble, the team leader probably jealous of the beautiful lady and thought that the countryside was easy to bully, so he wrote a letter from his family that his wife had never given up for three years and wanted to formally marry the lady to join the family. Isn’t this a joke? The team leader joined the army less than a year after getting married. Now that he has only been in the army for less than two years, the statement is not valid at all.
General Zhao was furious when he learned about this and immediately removed the position of squad leader, which was to let him get rid of his armor and return to the field. It is conceivable that he could abandon his character for the sake of profit. He must not let the next person stay in the army.
The young lady from the scholarly family reacted quickly. She did not talk about her reputation, but only said that she had implicated her benefactor's future. She was really ashamed of remarrying and could only cut off her hair and go to the nun to pray for her benefactor.
Later, the army discussed that the scholarly family just wanted to find a shelter in troubled times and fell in love with the team leader. As a result, as soon as the team leader was removed, he could not read a few martial artists with brute force, just like the servants in the homes of wealthy families. They could not even appreciate it. They said that they were shaved hair and became nuns. Who knew if they had married someone else? The family was not a local, so they came to make trouble and had no shame to continue staying there. Not long after, the whole family left.
The remaining team leader made a fuss and started to marry, and he spent a lot of money. Now he was exhausted and his position was gone, so everyone still had enough money to get home.
This incident was like a blow to Jing Gang. Was the same thing about that Miss Su back then? As a princess, she married a Gentile prince. The Great Zhou was not as ruling as Da Jing. Whether the hostage back then was just an excuse for Miss Su to escape. She had to marry the Great Zhou prince. She must have been reluctant in her heart, but this marriage is related to peace between the two countries. She must have been married. If someone is held hostage, she can escape without any scruples. In that case, a woman with ability and means will naturally have a broader world after leaving the high courtyard wall.
Just thinking about it that way, Jing Gang felt that he was also looking for excuses to make his conscience better by finding excuses for his wrong things.
The change of expression on Jing Gang's face did not escape Su Yiqing's eyes. She grew up in a complex environment. Although she did not deliberately, she could still keenly capture the changes in people's emotions, and guess what the other party was thinking. Then she said coldly: "Why don't you say anything? Do you think I'm letting down someone who sincerely treats me? I really can't imagine that you came from all the way to accuse me, or you think you should kill me."
"I...I just want you to know General Zhao's sincerity to you." Jing Gang was a little at a loss when facing the angry Su Yiqing, and his momentum suddenly became weaker.
"Sincere, so what if you are sincere?" Su Yiqing sneered, "Brother Jing, I look down on you, but you are always a reckless man. If you think about things in a comprehensive way, you cannot drink enough water. Whether it is the noble son of the Duke's Mansion in the past or the famous general now, Zhao Boyang's feelings are not just his own affairs. He has too much to bear. I, a weak woman, can leave everything and let him go to the ends of the world. No matter whether his country is destroyed or his family is destroyed, for a woman, there is a warm home.
Everything is important, can he? If he can give up his responsibilities, he will not be the hero worthy of your loyalty. If I didn’t take the initiative to leave, could he retreat with me, or could he openly disclose my identity and marry me? I don’t doubt his sincerity. With Zhao Boyang’s character and his guilt towards me, he will, but I think that there will be followers like Brother Jing coming out and another accusation. I am afraid that by then, I will become a demon who will harm the country and the people in your heart.”
"But General Zhao has been living a hard life, almost tortureing himself." Jing Gang lowered his head, "I didn't look for you to blame you, but if there is someone in the world who can help General Zhao, I'm afraid there will be only Miss Su, so I want to beg you..."
