Chapter 620 Dragon and Phoenix First Meeting

In the thousands of times of dreaming, Xingzhen dreamed of all kinds of scenes of reuniting with the person in her heart, among the thousands of times of soft heart, Xingzhen imagined various scenes of reuniting with him, and in the thousands of times of turbulent and strangeness, Xingzhen regarded the sweet scenes of reuniting with him as the thought of maintaining the emotional side of her woman. "7∞x.c But she didn't expect that her reunion with him would be in a temple, perhaps she had her true meaning. Didn't she and him separate in the temple of Jizu Mountain in her previous life?

He stood there in the yard in front of the Tianning Temple Sutra Hall. Although his appearance changed, Xingzhen still recognized his usual focused and cynical expression at a glance. He still maintained the habits of his previous life, and always liked to hold his hands and constantly tap his arms with his fingers.

Xingzhen suppressed the impulse in her heart and maintained the last bit of rationality and said to Li Lianying: "You are waiting here." After that, she walked slowly over alone, her steps slowly and heavy, elegant and solemn.

Although it was already midnight, the monks from Tianning Temple were still gathered in the sutra hall to recite scriptures. The Muyu and the Buddhist and Buddhist sounds made the meeting of the two a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The Western King turned his head and looked at the beauty coming over with a smile. Although her appearance changed, her temperament and behavior remained the same.

The two stood apart one step away. With the eyes of each other, the most powerful couple on the land of China today met like this. No one else was present. The monk was chanting scriptures inside, and Li Lianying was waiting outside the courtyard. No one witnessed this moment except for the two of them themselves.

The original words didn't know how to speak for a while. The opening remarks I had thought of before seemed to become pale and powerless when they said it. After staring silently for a moment, the two of them said at the same time: "How are you doing?" The plain and simple greetings separated the two. I thought that they had unconsciously maintained their identity and distance as friends. Just like in the previous life, although they were nominal unmarried couples, they had never been in love for a day, and their daily contact was like friends.

Both of them laughed, laughing so easily, but they all noticed the bitterness in each other's heart in their laughter.

"I'm living a good life." The second synchronization between the two made the laughter come to an abrupt end. The King of Western voice was cautious, for fear of irritating her. The King of Western guessed that she was not doing well. After all, life in the palace was not free and her husband died early. Xingzhen's tone was filled with comfort and self-comfort, and she didn't want him to worry.

After another moment of silence, the Western King pointed to the monks who were still chanting scriptures in the sutra hall and said, "I arrived just now for a while. Seeing that the monks in the temple were still chanting scriptures so late, I was curious and asked, guess why did they chant scriptures?"

Xingzhen shook her head gently, and the Western King continued, "Master Master told me that they were reciting scriptures, praying to calm the resentment of the world, praying for peace in the world, and praying for no war."

Xingzhen nodded softly and said, "These monks are intent." The Western King said again, "Qingyun, I asked you to come today for this. Don't fight again, okay?"

Xingzhen lowered her head and asked quietly: "Did you have nothing else to say to me after these words?"

The King of Westerners was very nice. He picked up countless girls and knew what Xingzhen meant, and sighed: "You and I made a marriage at home in my previous life. I know you have always liked me. But do you know why I never want to be with you?"

Xingzhen said bitterly after biting her teeth: "You are cynical on the surface, but you are very strong at heart. You don't like the marriage your father arranged for you."

The King of Western nodded slowly and sighed: "You are only half right, but there is actually another reason. That is, I don't think I deserve you."

Xingzhen smiled, but she smiled so bitterly, and she felt that he just didn't want to hurt herself.

The King of Western King lowered his head slightly ashamed and said, "The love between men and women is a very delicate thing. I only respect you but not the love between men and women. I always feel that marrying you is defiling you, so..."

Xingzhen raised her hand to stop the words of the King of the West and snorted softly: "Are you comforting me if you say such words? Xiao Yungui, you have never felt anything about me? In fact, what you always like is Hong Yuner who is against you, right? It was like this before, but it is still like this now. In fact, I have always been self-indulgent!"

The King of Western King was silent for a moment and said, "Qingyun, you were born noble, and I am just the son of an explosive household. Since I was a child, I have a different living environment from you. We are not from the same world. I can play with women and have many girlfriends, but those are money and ** transactions, but when it comes to feelings, I don't deserve you. In fact, every time I was in front of you, I felt ashamed of myself..."

Xingzhen interrupted him again, and smiled sadly with a sad face, "You don't need to say anything more. I understand. It's just that because my family and life are better than you, you feel inferior to me. You are actually no different from Lu Sixuan's small peasant thoughts. You always think that men are better than women, right?"

The Western King was silent for a moment before nodding slowly. He then suddenly grabbed Xingzhen's soft shoulder and said softly: "Qingyun, that's the matter in the previous life. We have traveled back from time to time. Now I am the Western King of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. When I am unified in the future, can you still be my woman?"

Xingzhen looked at the man in front of her and burst into tears. She gently pulled his hand away and said slowly: "Unify the world? Do you want to give me love and then ask me to surrender to your Taiping Heavenly Kingdom with the Qing court?"

The Western King did not avoid it and said in a deep voice: "This is not a gift. I used to think I was not worthy of you, but now it is different. I have the world. As long as you surrender with the remaining forces of the Qing Dynasty and the Qing emperor abdicated, I have many ways to make you my woman. Whether it is changing your name or treacherous or treacherous in the deep palace, aren't they all good? Qingyun, I just want to take good care of you in the future and let you live happily."

Xingzhen smiled faintly, wiped away her tears, raised her unyielding face, stared at Xiwang and said, "Why are you men like this? In order to achieve your goal, you dare to say any promise? You dare to do anything? Agui, you make me feel so cold, so cold..."

The King of Westerners never understood what was wrong with his words. He looked at her. Xingzhen closed her eyes, lowered her head and asked quietly, "What should I do if Yun'er?"

The King of Western King said in surprise: "Yun'er? Yun'er is my wife. As long as you want, you are my wife. Is there any problem?"

Xingzhen smiled bitterly and shook her head and said, "Agui, do you regard this matter as a transaction in your heart? A political transaction?"

The Western King seemed to be stopped, and finally he said firmly: "No Qingyun, even if you still fight with us in the future, the Qing Dynasty will be destroyed in the end. I will still let you be my wife, and even the little emperor Tongzhi can let go. I will still take care of you mother and son and let you live happily."

Xingzhen trembled slightly, raised her head and looked at him and said, "Will your subjects agree?" The King of Western Smiling and said, "There are many ways, such as taking you out secretly and finding two corpses to set them on fire. Who knows? Qingyun, I don't need to say this."

Xingzhen lowered her head and said softly: "Thank you, there are indeed many ways to hide this kind of thing."

The King of Western Republic continued: "Qingyun, now my army has come to the city of Beijing. We can already carry out siege battles in the past few days, but I still haven't ordered the siege. Do you know why?"

Xingzhen said slowly: "Do you want a complete Beijing city?"

The King of the Western King did not hide his head and nodded heavily, "Yes, Qingyun, just as you said, our shoulders are now carrying heavy historical responsibilities. This ancient Beijing city needs to be preserved intact. There are too many historical sites in Beijing. I don't want to leave a ruin for future generations. This is our common responsibility."

Xingzhen smiled and said in a sarcastic tone: "I didn't expect that the words I used to provoke were persuaded by you to persuade me."

The King of Western King shook his head and said, "Qingyun, in fact, I knew from the beginning that the historical responsibility mentioned in the letter you gave me a few months ago was to use the method of provoking generals. I have repeatedly calculated that the Taiping Army is now facing north with a hundred harms and only one benefit. The only benefit is also funny, just for the so-called national integrity and so-called national sovereignty. But I finally led my troops north. The reason is very simple. I think it is better to do a vigorous battle than to survive. Whether it is right or wrong will come from historical public opinion!"

Xingzhen smiled bitterly and said slowly: "Actually, you are still taking risks, and you don't have to speak out your speculation so righteously."

The Western King's expression slightly stopped, but then he calmed down and asked innocently: "I am speculating? If I don't do it well, the Taiping Army will go to a full war with Britain and France."

Xingzhen said slowly: "You are just speculating. You are unwilling to accept that Beijing City falls into the hands of Britain and France. You are unwilling to intervene in our civil war in the future. You are unwilling to draw the Yellow River with the Qing Dynasty in the future to govern. So you go north in advance and want to muddle the waters of Beijing. And the chips you speculate in the end are my attitude!"

The King of Westerners looked at Xingzhen silently, as if he had some consent. Xingzhen continued: "You have fought for the largest transportation capacity of the Taiping Navy and brought more than 40,000 people to the capital, and besieged Beijing before Britain and France. But you are worried that you will not be able to conquer Beijing in a short time. Once it is delayed for a long time, Britain and France will definitely increase their troops or change their attitudes. So, you are willing to take the risk of leading troops north this time, just to use my biggest variable, hoping to persuade me to surrender. Once I lead the Qing Dynasty to surrender, not only will you be able to control Beijing overnight and completely cut off the thoughts of Britain and France, but the Qing army in other places will also completely lose its righteousness and will only be gradually eliminated by you in the end. You are using our former love to make a big bet, right? So, you did not hesitate to make various promises just now and wanted to convince me, right?"

Word by word, every sentence is heart-killing, every word is bloody and tears, every word is like a knife and an axe, chopping it in the hearts of the two people, and even the last bit of warm fig leaf was torn off, reason still defeated the sensibility, or the feeling at the beginning of the meeting was just for rationality...
