Chapter Seven, A Bitter Confession
Zhang Shiyan's mother, Long, was a well-known beauty in Longxi. It was inevitable that she was born good-looking. She pretended to be sick in the past few days and had not washed herself properly. There were some green stubbles on the corners of her mouth. She looked a little older, but her eyes were burning.
He Gu couldn't bear to look into his fiery eyes.
Because...she was afraid that she would waver, that she would be soft-hearted, and even more afraid that she would fall in love with him again regardless of her own safety.
Then she defensively withdrew her gaze and just leaned in his arms.
She never imagined that the blood poison Jiangyin Liu had forced her to make would be used to poison him. She felt so uneasy that she didn't know how to explain it.
He Gu touched Zhang Shiyan's sharp-knuckled palm, and the warmth in his palm made her face a dilemma. She blamed herself in her heart. He loved her, but she poisoned him.
"Shi Yan..." He Gu was worried, if Zhang Shiyan knew that she concocted the blood poison... how would he react?
Will he kill her?
Or should we cut off one of her fingers like we did three years ago?
Zhang Shiyan held He Gu's slender hand and whispered in her ear, as gentle as water, "What's wrong?"
Should I say it, or should I not say it? My aunt had thousands of knots in her heart.
Warm and clear breath floated on He Gu's neck. Zhang Shiyan kneaded He Gu's little hand carefully, "That day, I cut off the little finger of your left hand." The whisper in his ear was a little loud, and Zhang Shiyan, a grown man, cried,
"I'm heartbroken to this day, please don't leave again, okay?"
"I know you must have been angry with me at that time, but if I didn't do this, my mother would probably kill you." Zhang Shiyan's tears were big, like scattered jade beads, dripping on the
On the aunt's neck, even if it is a piece of wood, the Taoist aunt, a miracle doctor, will have to sprout.
Zhang Shiyan tightened his arms, hugged Hegu tightly in his arms, and cried and begged, "Please don't go, you don't know how panicked I am when you are not by my side. I am terrified every day.
I'm afraid that someday bad news about you will come from afar..."
"Although you left, you also took my heart with you." From that day when he and his aunt left Yiyang, Zhang Shiyan lived like a walking zombie.
When Zhang Shiyan's deep voice was mixed with a hint of trembling, Hegu's psychological defense completely collapsed. Her tears flowed out of her eyes and flowed down the corners of her eyes. She bit her lips tightly under the face mask to protect her.
Hold on to your last dignity.
"I admit my mistake to you. I was wrong. I didn't care about your face. I only thought about how to protect you." Zhang Shiyan hugged her tightly, as if he was afraid of a big dream and that he and his aunt would disappear out of thin air.
.
"You can punish me in any way you want, slap me in the face, kneel down, copy scriptures, or anything else. Everything is fine. As long as you stay by my side, okay?"
Hegu's heart was clenched so hard that she had made up her mind long ago that she would never be moved by him again. However, she couldn't help but be moved, and had second thoughts. This man was suspicious, treacherous and changeable by nature. What if...
Before He Gu showed up, Zhang Shiyan already knew that the so-called Liu's blood poison was actually made by He Gu. He deliberately took the bait and drank it by mistake. First, he wanted to make Liu believe that he was still poisoned. Zhang Shiyan's cavalry general
He was headless to make him restless, and secondly, to lure He Gu out of the mountain to rescue him.
"I already knew that you were the one who researched the blood poison, and I drank it on purpose that day." Hegu was shocked, sat up, and cursed, "You don't want to die?"
The man laughed jokingly: "It's really hard to see you. You have to risk your life."
Zhang Shiyan's words made He Gu speechless, "We are really different now." Zhang Shiyan felt a little proud when he saw He Gu deflated, "I am no longer the former county magistrate.
," He held He Gu in his arms, "I am now a general guarding the border."
He holds 300,000 Tiger Talisman soldiers and his power should not be underestimated. The Liu family in Jiangyin tried every means to get rid of Zhang Shiyan in order to open up the fortress leading to the border of the Western Region. "'Who you are' is not important to me."
," He Gu said that being a first-class official is overwhelming, not to mention that He Gu is just a careless wandering doctor.
"What is the most important thing to you?" Zhang Shiyan asked in a critical tone, "You talk about 'all the people in the world' all day long, can't I be one of them?"
"Why am I always ranked last in your heart?"
Thrilling tears rolled down from the corners of Zhang Shiyan's eyes. He felt that he was too wronged. He stood up to turn the tide in the crisis and fought on the battlefield. He slept restlessly every night, just to mobilize his strength.
Guarding a territory and protecting her safety, he had done so many things for her, but in the end, this person was not moved at all.
"There are too many gaps before us," He Guan said. "You are the queen of King Jing Zhang Er, so you should be proud of your family. We are not from the same world. Besides, your mother will not agree with you."
The one I was with, she objected to it three years ago, and she won’t change it three years later.”
He Gu's fault was that she was too sober. Family status was the eternal gap between them.
The original grievance turned into sadness and pleading, "Madam..." Zhang Shiyan tried to lean on He Gu's shoulder, "Don't we all have Anxun?" We already have grandchildren. As a grandmother, how can she be a mother?
Don’t you recognize it?
"The common people have nothing else to ask for now. I only ask that you and your Zhang family can treat Anxun well. After all, he is the blood of your Zhang family." During the Eight Kings' Rebellion, fighting in all directions, with the help of her, a weak woman, she was able to drag down Anxun.
The family has a son, so he is afraid that he will not be able to protect his son.
She came today to return his son and save his life.
Hegu's cold and arrogant appearance made Zhang Shiyan feel resentful and annoyed. She called herself a "grassroots citizen" but had the guts to call out "you Zhang family". How did this woman survive to this day?
Is she relying on the kindness of others? Or is she relying on her own medical skills to bring the dead back to life and develop a life-threatening mouth?
“What does ‘our Zhang family’ mean?”
"Aren't you 'us'?"
"Is Anson my son alone?"
Zhang Shiyan became annoyed as he spoke, "You and I have even given birth to a child, why do you still want to clear up the relationship?" As he said this, he reached out to pull the belt around He Gu's waist, "Do you think I want a woman?
Is it difficult?" He Gu quickly escaped from his arms, but was turned over and pushed to the ground.
"In the past three years, I haven't had a woman by my side. I'm just afraid that if you are far away and hear some rumors on the way, I'm afraid that you won't believe me anymore." Zhang Shiyan just pressed He Gu under him and didn't do anything rough.
He said, "I care about you, I care a lot," he stopped just a few feet away from He Gu, his breath mingled with He Gu's breathing, and he kissed her through the towel.
Lingering and gentle, probing and cautious, not daring to go too far beyond the rules for fear of irritating my aunt, but also itchy and unbearable, "Have you ever woken up at night because you missed someone?"
"Have you ever cried for her and wet the pillow?"
"I just love you, what did I do wrong?"
