Twenty-fifth: Shadow Pendant (forty-nine)
I have seen too many famous people slandered by dirty words, and I have also seen them really hurt by rumors, and some have even been slandered to death.
I have also heard that many famous and capable ministers in history were framed and died by traitors.
Thinking that they were not able to wash away their grievances and died with hatred during their lifetime, how can ordinary people like us easily believe that "the upright body is not afraid of the slanting shadow"?
Even if you are not completely innocent, you will not be able to escape the disaster of Spring and Autumn's brushwork.
What I tell you and listen to will always be the ups and downs of the past, clouds and smoke.
There are so many things that need to be talked about, but when the words come to my mouth, they are cold and mean.
Zhijiao's heart was broken and he couldn't sleep all night.
"I don't know what you are thinking..."
Li Lusheng sighed resentfully. Next to him was Ning Ji. Ning Ji closed his eyes, calmly put his hands on his knees, and did not move even though the carriage bumped a few times.
"However, I am now certain that you are most likely crazy... Why are you accompanying us? His Majesty the Emperor knew that you were going to stop us and specifically pardoned you. Now, are you going to go back and scold us?"
Li Lusheng violently opened the silk curtain of the carriage and looked back at the carriage where Tan Mingqiu was sitting. In his carriage was Ning Ji, and in Tan Mingqiu's carriage were Chang Yinglan and Chu Yue.
"What do these two people have to do with you?!"
Ning Qing was handling affairs in Wutong Division, but was dissuaded by Ning Ji to stay in Bailing Mountain.
"You must get involved!"
Li Lusheng was furious, thinking that Ning Ji might not know who he was going against!
"Your Majesty the Emperor!" Li Lusheng almost used up all his strength to groan out through gritted teeth. These are four terrible words. When combined together, they can make someone's liver and gallbladder split.
As a friend, I told Ning Ji that I hate iron but cannot become steel. In the end, it was still too selfish.
"No one in our sect knows those two people! Hand them over to the Department of Justice! Hand them over to the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army! What will happen?!"
Li Lusheng was still too young, or maybe because he couldn't understand why Ning Ji did this, so he became more and more excited.
Even lose your mind.
"Please be quiet, my friend."
He was shocked by Ning Ji's voice.
"I am the Lord of Bai Ling, and I will never break my promise. This is the answer I give you."
Ning Ji looked upright, and his white and black attire made his black hair shine brighter. When he opened his eyes, he was staring at the floor of the carriage, his seriousness becoming more and more obvious.
"We haven't seen each other for so long, but when we meet, we yell like enemies. I thought we could play chess and drink tea together to get through these days."
He suddenly sighed and looked at Li Lusheng seriously.
The young old friend spoke slowly and in words that he did not understand.
"Time and love are all bitter, aren't they? Since I have chosen this way, I have to accept its pain."
"Isn't there a character like this in all shocking stories? Those who bear everything in pain and go against the current will not be afraid of these so-called strong people."
"I was born with no way to be like an ordinary person, and I will not be afraid that I will be like an ordinary person. My dear friend, please understand."
He kept his eyes closed from beginning to end, pouring out his heart.
He understands his own difficulties better than anyone else.
"This is also human nature, isn't it?"
"I am the Lord of White Spirits."
He opened his eyes and smiled at his friend.
This smile was enough for Li Lusheng to remember him for a lifetime. It was the kind of smile that could make people easily believe his nonsense that he was not smart enough.
Water passes through the clouds and turns into rain.
"I made a promise and I will never break it."
He said softly, and Li Lusheng suddenly became quiet.
Li Lusheng did it slowly at first and moved his seat. He used to sit next to Ning Ji, but now he sat directly opposite Ning Ji. Without saying a word, he slowly leaned his back against Ning Ji.
On the carriage, with the bumps of the carriage, his body began to sway, but he did not seem to care about the bumps. His body swayed with the carriage, his hands on his thighs, holding heavily, but there was no bump.
a feeling of.
"Ah...that's it..."
Li Lusheng also sighed.
"I don't really care about...this matter..."
Li Lusheng raised his head.
His eyes were burning.
"It's just that I'm more afraid... Ning Ji, our fathers both died on the battlefield. I also thought that I could die on the battlefield. I shouldn't participate in politics and be stabbed in the back by anyone."
"I can probably tell what kind of danger you are facing now. I can't help you. I can only advise you not to help those who have nothing to do with you..."
Li Lusheng cried and laughed.
Then he lowered his head again.
"So that's it... If you were persuaded by me, how could you be you... The Lord of the White Spirit was born to live for those who are in suffering... Even if it has nothing to do with it..."
"Right...you've never been the kind of person who keeps to himself...if you were the kind of person who ignored others and ignored them, then I wouldn't...be...here...right? Ning Ji..."
Li Lusheng was discouraged, like a bird clinging to a branch. The strong wind coming from the carriage was about to overturn him, so he had to hold on.
Only in this way will he not be afraid.
That's a different kind of relief.
Is there anyone who is afraid of time?
Isn't there anyone afraid of time?
Can anyone really realize the existence of time?
When you really realize that time exists, time has slowly slipped away...
Won't come back again...
forever.
"Perhaps, you always need to be rebellious a few times in life before you can realize that you are still alive..."
Ning Ji seemed to be saying irrelevant words.
He looked out the window. There were so many people in a hurry. Have they really thought about such problems? Have they been wronged by others? Can they see the future?
Who can answer him?
Thinking about it this way, it is indeed gone.
"My father was also the Lord of Ghosts, and he died on this battlefield."
Ning Ji's sudden heavy topic made Li Lusheng grit his teeth and be quiet.
"Now that I am also the Lord of Ghosts, I can suddenly understand that my father saw that he would die on the battlefield that night. He suddenly hugged my mother and said..."
He laughed happily, with a happy smile on his face.
This is something Li Lusheng has never seen before.
The other side of Ning Ji.
"It's been a long time since we went to [Yuzhou] to see flowers. Let's go and see them together when we have time..."
Ning Ji laughed loudly, as if he was there at that time, he could see his father hugging his mother.
Under the moonlight, they said things they would not normally say in front of him.
"Those who know the future are very painful...and very happy..."
Ning Ji looked at Li Lusheng.
"You may never understand it in your lifetime..."
"But I can only tell you this..."
"It's a very bitter sweetness..."
"You know all the bad stuff is coming..."
"I also know that all good things... will come as promised..."
