MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 217 Surrender
Chen Huan still looked at the sea to be fascinated. It had been two hours since the end of the dialogue.
Yuan Chong stepped forward to persuade him to rest for a while, but he refused.
At this moment, a quiet thinking environment is more important than anything.
It's better to think than thinking. Under the dark night, the autumn winds are colder than waves, as if this ironic life.
When all thoughts were grey, there was a sound coming from behind, someone was approaching.
Chen Xun turned his head, and unsurprisingly saw the familiar figure.
It was only when he came over that Yuan Chong would not stop them.
Fang Yuan walked to Chen Yan's presence before stopping.
In an instant, the two hadn't seen each other for years. Ears seemed to echo the shouting and killing of the day of breaking the city.
Is that the time when thirteen-year-old Jianou City was broken? Or was the time when the small court of Wuling County was captured? Or was it the other two fighting side by side to kill one of them in the blood of the dead?
No one spoke, just standing on the edge of the pier, watching the dark night and the ocean, listening to the sound of distant waves washing away.
"The sound of the waves at the border of Beishuo sounds no different from that of Nanchen." After a while, Fang Yuan finally said, "It's been five years."
It may seem long to think about, but it is also short-lived.
Chen Zheng raised his hand and looked at the distant moon from the gap. "I have lost more in the past five years than in my previous life."
Fang Yuan looked at his familiar movements, as if he had returned to the childhood time of Qiluo Temple.
Friends like to watch the moon through their fingertips, saying that this makes him feel a sense of proximity to the bright light, and the two often talk with interest, whether there is a legendary fairy palace and goddess on it.
Thinking of the old things, Fang Yuan's expression softened.
However, the next moment, Chen Yan tore up this false tenderness.
"You know what? When she died, she was pregnant."
Fang Yuan's eyes tightened sharply, and there was red color flashing in his eyes.
He even dared to lift her up in front of him!
Chen Yun was calmer than he expected, turning around, gazing at his childhood friend, his most trusted friend and subordinate. His gaze was cold, as if talking about something that could not be more common.
"She didn't tell you, she wanted to surprise you."
Fang Yuan trembled, and he could hardly bear what he said. He heard the news for the first time. It turned out that when she died, she was still pregnant, listening to the news of her brother's death, facing her cold and realistic husband ... He couldn't imagine how desperate she was at the last moment.
"Why are you?"
"Are you selfish and hypocritical about me?"
"enough!"
"Don't want to avenge her? I've been waiting for this day for a long time." Chen Yan laughed. "She was thinking about you in the end."
With a bang, Fang Yuan pulled out his long sword.
Without any hesitation, the round silver light flashed, as if the white bird suddenly swept up its wings.
Chen Yan closed his eyes suddenly.
The cool breeze swept across his neck, but he didn't expect the pain. He opened his eyes and watched a black hair fall from his ear.
Fang Yuan took the sword back into the sheath, and the original red eyes had restored peace.
"Enough, don't let this go on. There are too many people hurt."
Fang Yuan's rapid respite gradually eased. "Remember when we visited Mr. Wen together?"
That was what happened to the two when they were eleven years old. When they emerged, the emperor quietly left the palace to visit the recluse of the great Confucian gentleman Wen Rong while the emperor was out of Beijing. The two took only three or four guards, pretending to be students traveling around, and heading westward, this was the first time that they actually walked close to the folk. Without the halo of the prince, it is not easy to see the folk. Unlike the wealthy people in Jian'ou City, people in many towns and villages have a hard day's work and have a satisfying meal.
At that time, the two knew that it was true that the people in the book said that the life of the people of Li Min was not easy.
"At that time, you bemoaned how difficult the people's livelihood was. If there is a day in power, you need to do your best to stabilize the world and return the people to health."
At night, Fang Yuan's tone was deep and hoarse. Since then, the once sincere and pure teenager has become radical and stubborn.
If Fu Guo was such a distorted road, he would rather not have embarked on this road at the beginning!
Chen Yan's eyes were blank. The memories of adolescence seem to be as distant as a few lives.
For so many years, before the ambitious goal of rejuvenating the country and in the difficult environment of the six counties in the south, he was exhausted and devised day and night to forget his feelings as a teenager.
Those things that are too beautiful are too fragile, and they have been crushed in the face of the cruel reality without leaving any trace.
Fang Yuan gazed at him and said so much, just to let his former friends understand that his abandonment and betrayal was never because of hatred. I just saw a more promising path!
Chen Ye lowered his head: "So, is this your choice? Is he so good?"
"Excellent or not, let alone. At least, he is a worthy follower. He is the most suitable person for this world who has been chaotic because of war for so many years."
"As an emperor, he understands that the world is the world, not the world of a certain surname or family. This love of the people is more precious than anything."
Fang Yuan said word by word.
The person sitting in that position does not need Wu Xun's peerlessness or ingenuity, these naturally have courtiers to serve. Well, this young emperor is also very good in this respect, and even a little too good, it is going to make them nowhere to go.
In fact, as an emperor, he only needs to choose the best direction for the world, which is to fulfill his responsibility. From this point of view, the young emperor can be called a peerless emperor.
Chen Yun was silent, Fang Yuan had turned and left.
Once the liver and the gallbladder looked at each other, and now soldiers meet, there is already an insurmountable gap between the two.
The sky was white and white, and a sleepless night passed.
"Brother Huang." Chen Li quietly approached behind him and whispered.
Chen Ye didn't move, but Chen Li knew that he was listening: "Remember what the emperor said in my ear when I was sent away?"
Remember, living is the most important thing. Once a person dies, there is nothing left.
When the army was in trouble, he earnestly clanked in his ears more than anything else. He remembers that moment all his life.
When he was young, he set foot on the battlefield and lingered on the line of life and death several times. Whenever he came to mind, it was always this sentence, and there were people who dinged it.
"You didn't even think about going back to the south with me, did you?" Chen Yan looked at his brother and suddenly said, "Do you want to assassinate Mu Kun?"
"Brother!"
"Advise me to live, no matter how difficult the road, but I easily choose to die?"
Chen Li bowed her head, "Brother Huang ..."
"I have hurt you in these years."
Chen Li shook her head, with a flash of light in her eyes: "I am very grateful that Brother Huang's choice at the time gave me such a life."
To him, Myna is the one who brought him out of the lonely abyss. The two great twists in life came from him.
Lurking in the Zhou for many years, even after he grew up, entering and leaving the country, Nan Chen Xiao court was very difficult, and he never contacted him step by step.
Chen Li knew that if he did not take the initiative, Chen Yan would really forget his brother and let him have a brand new life, as far as farewell said. In the end, he chose to go back.
Chen Li stood beside his brother, his eyes full of worry.
Chen Yan smiled suddenly: "Why, are you afraid I will kill myself?"
Chen Li was silent and didn't know how to answer. The moment Bai Guangxi drew his sword, he was really terrified. Fortunately, the sword just rubbed his cheek.
Brother Guangxi could not bear it anyway.
"Rest assured, he doesn't bother to do anything, why should I give up. This life, it is a fluke to survive the era of extinction. If we give up easily, we will be more sorry for the struggles over the years." Chen Yi laughed at himself And, he doesn't know yet, what kind of face should he be to see them in that world.
His wife and children, once extremely precious and looking forward, thought that he could cherish a life, but was ended by him.
Chen Li calmed down a little, comforted in a low voice: "Brother Huang retreats to Nanman in the future, and the area is vast, and he may not be able to do something."
However, beyond his expectation, Chen Yan said with a low smile: "Why go to Nanman again, and I have lost all these years of battle. If I lose, I lose, and there is nothing to admit."
"Brother Huang!" Chen Li was shocked, this choice was greatly unexpected.
Chen Huan was calm, "Go tell the emperor of Da Zhou, Nan Chen is willing to return."
***
On this day of late autumn, a simple yet special etiquette is taking place outside the city of Nanlan, which is far away from Da Zhou and Nan Chen.
Qin Nuo remembered that before looking at the history textbook, the imperial family returned from the annihilation of the country, what action was needed to travel by itself, with coffins and the like. Fortunately, this era does not pay attention to these red tapes, or in foreign countries, both sides are familiar, and too lazy to tidy up these imaginary things.
When the news came, Qin Nuo was discussing with Lin Jia a few people about the next military strategy. Hearing the attendant Tongyu, Chen Ye and Chen Li came over, and also brought along some of the remaining high-ranking generals in Nan Chenjun.
Unexpectedly, he could figure it out so quickly. Qin Nuo had already experienced the extreme and obsession with this guy. In any case, this is always a good thing. Not only was Nan Chen willing to surrender, he even gave up Uli. In the future, Da Zhou can include it as a dependent country and promote the New Deal. This surprised Qin Nuo.
The generals of Nan Chen, Yuan Chong and Lei Yangbing, were a little dazed. The country they had fought for for so many years finally came to an end in this cold port. Almost everyone was lost and suffering. Even though the command of surrender came from the master Chen Chen, several young people in Lei Yangbing couldn't help crying.
But for the soldiers at the bottom, compared with the whole army's distant foreign land, being able to survive and return to their homeland is a happy thing in the end. At the same time he was relieved.
Qin Nuo didn't embarrass the Chen brothers, and before Chen Yi's knees touched the ground, he personally stepped forward and helped him up.
He never valued such ritualized things. The most urgent thing is the actual interest. Chen Yun's consent to return means that there is no need to start a war in the south, the six counties can be recovered peacefully, and the naval division warship can be smoothly transferred.
All this he let Fang Yuan handle and take over. Anyway, these soldiers and horses in the south will need to be handed to him. The remaining more than 10,000 Nan Chen Bingma are willing to stay, and will be his subordinates in the future.
