Chapter 9 – Cuddling and Leaning and Having a Heart-to-Heart Chat
Putting on his Gong Chenchunthe Luo River Suddenly he heard a song, a fe on a sreen-jade palace, theover the e its eyes over the glory, riches and honor Why should one always drea waswith sorrow and helplessness, floating above the distant water of the Luo River This late at night, the outward e halted his steps; his heart was tranquil and har started their trip north to Guanzhong, countless things that caught hi one after another, like wave after wave of the tide continuously pounding against the seaside, and each tiht on the thin line between life and death
But at this verylike he had lost countless days suddenly filled his heart to the briles, en, crafty plots andto do with hihtest influence on him
All of a sudden, his mind cleared up and he understood that his cultivation in the martial art study was a layer deeper It was so; it reached the top of the tops As for how he attained this kind of realm at this moment, whether it was because of the operation where he assassinated the fake Rong Fengxiang just nohich sti te he experienced beforehand, it was very difficult to ascertain clearly
Why should one always dream of the tree branch of the south?
Life has always had drea Zhou [aka Zhuangzi (369-286 BC), Daoist author] was drea into a butterfly When he woke up, he asked hi a butterfly, or whether he was a butterfly drea him? To explain a complicated subject matter in simple terms, it was a clear explanation of life’s bizarre illusion
The brightclouds slowly revealed its iht of the ancient city Luoyang In itself, it felt like an unreal dream Which one was the illusion, which one was the reality?
If he could turn illusion into reality, and turn reality into illusion, would he be able to break the Ienius shi+ Zhixuan, which could fuse together two extre’s entire body suddenly shook severely ‘Ah!’ he exclailided toward the riverbank, a feht, would Ziling be interested to get on the boat and stay for a while?”
Hearing that, Xu Ziling soared into the air, leisurely and effortlessly he landed on the boat, and cal at the stern, sculling the boat with a single oar, he said, “Since Shen Junshi+ [ the Luo River, I, Xu Ziling, naturally am honored to keep you coht; her clothes, her sleeves, her beautiful hair, were fluttering lightly in the river breeze Her beautiful eyes, filled with resentht htly, she spoke with gentle sigh, “Mi Gong [Duke Mi] is defeated!”
A burst of e spoke in low voice, as if he was chanting, “An old steed in the stable still aspires to gallop a thousand li, a ly Mi Gong only needs to quietly wait for another fortunate ti’s handsoent smile escaped fro her head, she said, “Once the fortunate ti has been defeated; it was due to his excessive ego Otherwise, even though wang shi+chong received help from the two of you, he would still have to bow before hi said, “As his Junshi+, why don’t you offer hion the left bank, Shen Luoyan spoke indifferently, “Would he be willing to listen? Toward you and Kou Zhong, he simply snorted disdainfully; otherwise, how could he fail and iped over the floor?”
Xu Ziling said, “Mi Gong opted to surrender to the Tang, to accept the gift of ti wiped over the floor”
As if she was recounting people and things that have nothing to do with her, Shen Luoyan sneered coldly and said, “What gift of ti about? The commander of a defeated arht that by leading his troops in surrender, he would receive the generous good fortune of being appointed wang [king, prince, the highest nobility rank in ancient China]; ould have thought that the official post that Tang Huang [Eh ranking officer ‘Shang Zhu Guo’ [lit upper pillar of the country], the nobility conferred to hi [duke with the surname of the country] On the contrary, not only Xu Zhiji is still in co, he is also bestowed the surnajun [left eneral] This division has substantially weakened Mi Gong’s th Early on I already advised hi’an, but he did not listen Instead, he listened to Wei Zheng’s[1] nonsense; what can I, Shen Luoyan say?”
The desolation in her voice rew as a thicket; not the least bit of hatred toward her reive up because of this Shen Junshi+ can choose the wise ”
Letting out a distressed laugh, Shen Luoyan’s beautiful eyes were full of emotion as she said, “To the Li Clan, I, Shen Luoyan aer have the great anificent aspiration of the olden days! Without any better option, if youfollow the dog; I have to put ood wo’s heart was shaken; he knew that Shen Luoyan has finally decided to ed his surna was to visit Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin, but not acting as an itinerant political adviser for Li Mi, she was acting for her husband instead, to obtain helps
Hanging her head low, Shen Luoyan spoke softly, “Why do you stop talking?”
Xu Ziling hastily replied, “I was just going to congratulate you!”
Rolling her eyes at hi sincere?”
Xu Ziling’s handsohtly blushed, he calood news, but it is a bit too sudden But Shen Junshi+ finding your ideal husband, naturally I am very happy for you”
In daze, Shen Luoyan stared at hi! I wonder which fa anddid not expect her to be this straightforward; he was totally caught off guard After clearing his throat a couple times to cover up his embarrassment, he replied with a wry smile, “This question, Zaixia really don’t kno to answer Hey! How did Shen Junshi+ know that I was going to pass by here?”
“Pfft!” Shen Luoyan broke into giggle; she cast hie the subject; we are old acquaintances! Can’t we talk about so you tonearly wanted to cry out for his Niang Although he and Shen Luoyan have always been standing on opposing sides, and this situation has not changed even until now, but the fact was that he had never had any ill will toward her, and of course, they were not at the friendshi+p level that they could talk about the feeling between a man and a woman There has always been a delicate relationshi+p between the two, but Shen Luoyan’s re paper apart
No matter how he answered it, it would be very difficult not to touch on the affair between reatly aard position
Shen Luoyan see situation very well; she spoke cheerfully, “What’s the irl can occupy the first position in your heart? Would you like Luoyan to point out several girls’ fragrant na your memory?”
Shen Luoyan, who had always looked deeply and within her heart; speaking forthrightly like this, she revealed the bitterness and despair in her heart toward Xu Ziling
Shen Luoyan, just like Yun Yuzhen, has watched the, fro abruptly to beco-the-Heaven-and-Earth heroes and prouish, hopelessly-muddled relationshi+p between them
But now, because of Susu’s affair, Yun Yuzhen has had a fall out with theh ‘the fairl is already taken], they still had ‘wanting-to-break-but-still-connected, re a deep breath, Xu Ziling nearly wanted to secretly perforhed and said, “The two of us, Kou Zhong and I, only live our lives one day at a time, how could we dare to think about the affair between men and women? Shen Junshi+ does not need to waste yourabout shi+ Qingxuan and shi+ Feixuan Supposing one of these tilling to give herself wholly to hi carried away by his wishful thinking; proant hope out of his mind, yet in his heart he was still not without self-pity
Shen Luoyan steered the boat into a tributary, leaving the Luo River Sighing faintly, she looked desolate It was precisely this expression, the eternalit on the surface of his fan Looking at her, Xu Ziling could only stare blankly, while a feeling of pity rose up greatly in his heart
He re place he heard her dialogue with Li shi+ji Evidently the relationshi+p between those two persons was not that har at all, so he wondered if the unity of e between these tould be auspicious or oht the skiff into a halt under a se, and she sat in the darkest corner at the base of the bridge Outside the bridge, the water was flickering with the reflection of the e were like two different worlds altogether The mood was exceptionally beautiful
Quietly her beautiful eyes were gazing at Xu Ziling It was quite a while later that she sht that the two of us could sit side by side to have intimate talks in here without any hostility at all It can clearly be seen that the things of the world are iuess”
Xu Ziling felt this touching beauty’s tender and affectionate side; he spoke gently, “When would Shen Junshi+ return to Liyang?”
