Chapter 1617: God's Will
Taoyuan County, on the county magistrate's mansion.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Fang is asking for a visit."
Yang Xuehai walked in and reported to Zhou Jingyu who was sitting in the living room.
"Let him come in."
Zhou Jingyu put down the teacup, then Fang Liang walked in with his old body and knelt down: "Caomin greets the emperor."
"Please get up quickly, Mr. Fang."
Zhou Jingyu went up, helped Fang Liang up, and let him sit on the chair next to him, and said with a smile: "As a wise minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Mr. Fang assisted the late emperor in establishing meritorious deeds. Although he has resigned, you cannot claim to be a sage. You are still an official of my Great Zhou Dynasty."
"The emperor is so serious."
Fang Liang shook his head and waved his hand, saying, "Caomin resigned from his official position, and did not care about official affairs. He only wanted to be a commoner and spend his old age safely with Yuan Xi and his son-in-law!"
There is something in the words.
Zhou Jingyu smiled and said, "I understand what Mr. Fang means, but I really can't rest assured that Yuan Xi!"
Fang Liang frowned and looked at Zhou Jingyu sitting in the main seat. He immediately stood up and pounced: "Master, I understand that you value love and friendship with Yuan Xi, but Yuan Xi is now married as a wife. Why is the emperor insisting on doing this again? Break them apart."
Zhou Jingyu looked unhappy and looked at Fang Liang coldly: "Mr. Fang, is this my fault?"
"No, Caomin didn't mean that..." "I'm not right, but why are you?"
Zhou Jingyu had a cold face. Now he has no choice but to get Fang Yuanxi.
"Okay, Mr. Fang, go back."
Zhou Jingyu waved his hand and Yang Xuehai came in: "Mr. Fang, I'll take you back."
Fang Liang trembled all over and looked at Zhou Jingyu deeply with his old eyes. He didn't expect that the emperor would become so unreasonable for Yuan Xi... Seeing Yang Xuehai take Fang Liang out, Zhou Jingyu's eyes were slightly cold and he shouted: "Yinglong, go and kill him for me!"
"Affect the order."
The guard chief Yinlong, the first-class strong man of the Great Zhou Dynasty, took the order and turned around and went out.
"I want it, no one can stop it!"
Zhou Jingyu's eyes were cold and he snorted in his heart.
The peach garden in the back mountain, on the big rock by the river.
"My husband, take me away, go to a place where the emperor cannot find us!"
Fang Yuanxi said to Jiang Chen extremely seriously at sign language.
Jiang Chen looked at her and shook his head slightly: "We are leaving, what should you do if your father and aunt?"
Besides, how could he let us go?"
"But..." Fang Yuanxi wanted to say something. Jiang Chen grabbed her little hand and put it down, hugged her and said, "Don't worry, no matter what he wants to do, I will never leave you."
This made Fang Yuanxi feel at ease in an instant, snuggling in the man's arms, where the soul is placed... the next morning.
"Jiang Chen, we're going up the mountain."
Several young and strong villagers in Taoyuan Village are ready to hunt weapons.
Although the villagers in Taoyuan Village have now achieved poverty alleviation for the whole nation, the villagers still maintain simple living habits. Today, several villagers made an appointment to go up the mountain to hunt wild boars, so as not to escape the fast-breeding wild boars to the fields to destroy crops.
"Xiao Jiang, be careful..." Fang Yuanxi, Fang Liang and the aunt came out to see him off, asking Jiang Chen and the others to be more careful.
"Don't worry, wait until we come back and eat wild boar meat."
Several villagers were full of confidence and pulled Jiang Chen up and went into the forest in the back mountain together.
Fang Yuanxi's right eyelid twitched, which made her worried. Fang Liang noticed her abnormality and asked, "Yuan Xi, what's wrong?"
Fang Yuanxi reacted and shook his head to say that it was okay.
But then, she felt uneasy all day long, and nothing was right, and she always felt that something was going to happen.
"What happened, something happened..." It was not until noon that the villagers who were hunting up the mountain ran back with panic on their faces. Fang Yuanxi, who was harvesting vegetables in the vegetable garden and preparing lunch, heard that something happened, and his heart skipped a beat and the knife accidentally cut his finger.
"What happened?"
Fang Liang, who was sitting in the straw shed to drink tea, was startled and immediately greeted the villagers who ran back cried and said, "Brother Jiang has an accident. He chased the wild boar and accidentally fell off the cliff. No, no, why is this happening..." Fang Liang trembled all over and grabbed the villager. Fang Yuanxi was already slumped on the ground, with a pretty face pale... "Yuan Xi..." The aunt screamed in surprise and hurriedly went up to support Fang Yuanxi who fainted.
The news soon came back to all the villagers of Taoyuan Village and Taoyuan County. Zhou Jingyu and others heard it and he was overjoyed: "Is this God's destiny?"
Zhou Jingyu didn't expect that he had sent Yinlong to find an opportunity to kill Jiang Chen last night, but today he received news of his accidental fall from the cliff and his death. This is not what God's will is.
"Hurry, prepare the horse quickly. I want to comfort Yuan Xi. She must be very sad. I just need me to comfort..." Zhou Jingyu and Yang Xuehai rode their horses to Taoyuan Village immediately... "Xiaojiang, wuwu..." Seeing Jiang Chen's body being carried back, Fang Liang and Aunt cried in grief. All the villagers of Taoyuan Village also rushed to the Taolin thatched hut. Fang Yuanxi, who woke up, looked at Jiang Chen's body covered in blood, and she was heartbroken. The phoenix's tears were blurred. She could not believe that this was true.
"The Emperor is here..." When the villagers saw Zhou Jingyu riding on horseback, they all made way and kneeled down. Zhou Jingyu got off the horse and asked the people to get up. Looking at the door of the thatched hut, Jiang Chen's body was lying there, Fang Liang and the aunt cried bitterly, Fang Yuanxi's pretty face was dull, as if he had lost his soul, and she sat on the ground, looking at the corpse of the man in front of her.
"Yuan Xi..." Zhou Jingyu immediately went up, squatted down, put his big hand slightly on Fang Yuanxi's shoulder, and comforted him: "A person cannot be resurrected by death, please feel sorry for me..." "Yinlong, lead the team to kill all the wild boars on the mountain."
Zhou Jingyu's subtext in his heart: Killing a wild boar to celebrate his achievements! And in the sky, two illusory figures hang in the air, it is Jiang Chen and Si Ming Zhenjun.
Seeing Fang Yuanxi's heartbroken look, Si Ming Zhenjun couldn't bear it, so he turned his head to look at Jiang Chen with a calm expression, and comforted him: "God, this is Yuanxi's last disaster. As long as she can survive it, everything will be fine."
Seeing Zhou Jingyu holding Fang Yuanxi, who was already in his arms and comforting him, Jiang Chen's eyes shot at him like a knife, causing Zhou Jingyu below to tremble in his heart. He suddenly looked at Jiang Chen's corpse lying in front of him, and a strange feeling that could not be described in his heart! "Don't worry, I will take good care of Yuanxi for you."
Zhou Jingyu murmured.
In the end, Jiang Chen's body was buried in the Taoyuan Garden. Fang Yuanxi, who was wearing hemp, did not eat or drink for three days, and kept guarding Jiang Chen's grave, which made everyone feel very distressed.
It was useless for Fang Liang and the aunt to take turns to persuade her to comfort her, and the same was true for Zhou Jingyu, because they could not understand the pain in Fang Yuanxi's heart at all.
"Yuan Xi, what are you going to do..." Until one day, Zhou Jingyu came to find her, but found that Fang Yuanxi seemed to have lost her soul and was walking into the depths of the river. He rushed in without hesitation, grabbed Fang Yuanxi, and shouted: "Are you really willing to die for him?"
Fang Yuanxi struggled, she cried in pain, and she couldn't speak, crying heart-wrenchingly.
She can't live without Jiang Chen...
