Chapter 860: Identity
be like me, blushing at first sight until the one I liked was snatched away by my cousin! You have better eyesight than I do. The person you have your eyes on is the greatest powerhouse on this land,...Ye Wen couldn't quite understand. "These things, can't the people of Tianshui City see them Can't those who died see them too"
Ye Fei Zhou said: “Of course they can see, and of course some have suspected it…”
You can never wake a person who pretends to be asleep, nor save a city that willingly submits to oppression. 。If the people of Tianshui City truly had backbone, how could they remain silent for so many years while Pingxi Wang perpetrated his evil deeds It's because they don't speak up, the people remain indifferent, and the officials simply ignore it. 。As they spoke, the two brushed past the squad of palace guards. The woman saw them and wanted to speak to them, but hesitated and didn't dare. 。Ye Fei Zhou whispered to her, "Save him"Ye Wen Yan nodded, "Save..." 。"
Before the words even left his mouth, Ye Fei Zhou had already made his move>>> 。He merely plucked a handful of leaves from the tree and hurled them as projectiles. The group of soldiers fell to the ground one by one, their breaths extinguished. 。Perhaps afraid of the night's whisper saying he was cruel, he turned back to explain to her: "Listening to them speak, it is obvious they are close to Guiyue. They are all willing to be Guiyue's dogs. What use is there in keeping such people"Night Wenyan nodded, "Second brother did the right thing" 。Then dismounting, he walked up to the woman. 。The woman was startled by the scene, but quickly regained her composure. 。When Ye Wen approached her at night, she immediately said, “I knew you were not ordinary. Strange faces appearing in the tent area must mean something.” 。I don't ask what you do, just want to give you some things. 。I hope you can bring things back to Lin'an City and give them to the magistrate there. 。That was the evidence of Pingxi Wang's treason. It took me half a year living in the tent area to get it. 。I'm afraid I don't have the ability to go back to the capital and report him. I hope you can do it. 。"Because I have no one else to rely on." 。She lifted her skirt to let Ye Wenyan see her legs. 。"The last time you saw me, I could still walk, now I'm afraid I can't. Half my leg is gone." 。" It was only then that Ye Wen noticed that this woman was missing half her calf, which is why she had been staying in the carriage all along. 。"Who did this" she asked. 。The woman replied, "It was the soldiers from the mine." 。I stole something, and when I ran out they found me. They cut off half my leg and brought me back. 。But I have hidden the things well, they can kill me but I won't tell them where the things are. 。Later they said they would let me go and have the officials from Tianshui City come to pick me up, but the people who came were not officials at all, but soldiers from the Pingxi Wangfu. 。Girl, I'll tell you where I hid it. You must go get it as soon as possible. 。That is evidence of Pingxi Wang sending iron ore to Guiyue over the years, with the amounts listed on top. 。These things must be submitted to the imperial court and the King of Pingxi cannot be allowed to rule this place unchecked. 。The common people can endure hardships, but they cannot live without a home, nor can they live under the roof of others. 。 。But to betray one's country is absolutely not allowed!
She said this with an unusually firm expression, and Ye Wenyan blurted out: "Who are you"
The woman was startled for a moment, then smiled wryly, “I’m telling you this, and I haven't even asked who you are, yet you ask me But I can't tell you the truth, I can't tell you my real identity! But please believe me, I'm not a bad person, I've never done anything bad in my life, I……”
She paused here, then shook her head, “No, I have done bad things, it's just that at first I didn't know they were wrong…” 。The woman fell into reminiscence, a feeling of wanting to speak welled up within her. 。Perhaps it was because of the ordinary-looking girl in front of her, which made her feel a sense of familiarity. 。Or perhaps it was the blood-red sky that cast a heavy atmosphere, making her feel she had to say these things immediately, or else she'd miss her chance. 。She told Yè Wēn: “I used to be the top courtesan at a flower house, but I sold my art, not my body. Many people offered huge sums of money, but they could only listen to me play a tune or watch me smile.” 。Later, a prominent figure took notice of me and asked if I would be willing to go with him and become his concubine. 。He can't guarantee me a life of peace, but at least I won't have to sell myself for a living in places like this flower house anymore. 。Actually, I don't want to leave Huālóu. It's just that my mother here relies on me for money, so no matter how much the patrons offer, she won't sell me. 。I've tried many times to pay the ransom, but I couldn't. 。But that bigwig could. His power was such that the madam of the brothel wouldn't dare disobey him, he didn't even need to pay, and he could take me away from the brothel and get my deed back. 。He still paid me, and I was able to leave. I became his mistress. 。At first, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it, you know, men having three or four wives is common, especially for someone as important as him. 。In my opinion, his household must be full of wives and concubines with children all around him. 。The reason why he took me back is simply because the border post is lonely and I'm someone to keep him company. 。These days, mistresses or concubines are not illegal, so I live with him peacefully. He also promised me that when he returns to the capital, he will definitely take me home and let me live in his family's mansion. 。Unfortunately, I didn't wait for that day. He returned to Beijing on his own and then died there. I never got to see him face-to-face until the end. 。At the same time, I also know that even if he were alive, he couldn't take me home. 。Because his household had no concubines, only a wife, people in Beijing all praised him for being devoted to his wife. He earned many accolades by not taking concubines. 。I know I was deceived, and his wife was also deceived. 。I think we women should all hate him because he's a liar and he has no responsibility. 。But I couldn't hate him, because besides being bad to women, he did everything else very well. 。I can't tell you too much, including what he does exactly and why I say he's good at other things. 。I can't tell you all of that, but I have to say he is a really good person. He is loyal to the country and cares about the people. 。I lived with him for several years, absorbing his teachings and gradually coming to understand the importance of national duty. I also began to love this land. 。So I went to the camp in the mine, to keep those men company and do things I'd never done at the flower house. 。But I know what I'm doing. As long as I can bring down the King of Pingxi, as long as I can prevent the resources of Bei Qi from being lost any longer, every sacrifice I make will be worth it. 。She looked up at the sky, a hint of confusion in her eyes, "Girl, why has the sky changed like this Is the sky about to collapse They say it's going to rain blood. If the world truly becomes hell, what meaning do my actions hold anymore"I had never felt lost before, but at this moment, I was truly afraid. 。 "ady from a wealthy family into marrying you, so as to improve your family tree that has been commoners for eight generations.Later, after you passed the imperial examination and became an official in...
