Chapter 343: The Mystery of the Labyrinth (7)
His flaw in his heart was his desire for her, and her flaw was obviously the experience that year. This kind of torture that was remembered for many years for adults. She was only ten years old when she experienced it, and no one was comforting her...
He felt distressed.
He wanted to hold her and give her warmth, instead of leaving her alone in his memory to continue suffering.
Li Jue closed his eyes and felt carefully where Yongping's voice came from.
The sound echoed in his ears and finally distinguished the source. He followed the source, closed his eyes and walked step by step.
...
Before coming to Tang Kingdom, Yongping was ready to bury all the past, but he did not expect that one day, these memories would appear again with clear and unavoidable appearance. She possessed herself in her memory and experienced everything again.
Gradually, I can't tell the difference between myself at that time and myself at this time.
She remembered everything seven years ago. Li Jue was the only warmth in that dark memory. It took too long for her to see his appearance blurred in her memory, but she still remembered that he was from Tang.
The Kunlun Fairy Mountain where the eldest brother practices is also next to the Tang Kingdom.
She developed curiosity and affection for Tang Guo.
Later, the matter of establishing diplomatic relations between the two countries was determined, and they agreed that the two countries would choose a royal princess to marry each other. She thought about it for a long time and went to find her eldest brother.
The eldest brother did not agree, but she insisted. She had never known that because she had not grown up together, the eldest brother was not close to her, but she was the only sister he agreed with. Seeing that she was so persistent, the eldest brother finally agreed.
Everything will be fine in the future. In short, she doesn’t want to stay in Beixing City or Qinhuang Palace.
Until she returned to that memory, she finally saw the face of the young man in green again. He was sixteen years old and twenty-three years old. Seven years made him more mature and handsome, but she could still find the shadow of that year.
It turns out...it's you.
It's not familiar, but it's an old acquaintance.
"Is it a coincidence or fate? I will be your wife, Li Jue, do you still remember me back then?" Yongping said softly.
Is it a dream or a illusion?
She knew she was trapped in her past memory, but she couldn't escape.
What he saw was boundless darkness and blood in his hands. Those who died in front of her, the relevant and unrelated ones turned into evil spirits and rushed towards her, wanting to tear her apart.
She never regretted killing Nangong Rui with her own hands, but she couldn't accept herself who killed others.
Will someone really treat her so cruelly?
"Li Jue, you won't like me who is so cruel." He only saw her appearance and talent, and the kindness and elegance she used to disguise. If he knew her true appearance, would he still say he was happy with her?
The blood in her hands and the darkness in her heart, she desperately wanted to hide the past, and now she was like a shadow in the sun.
If you wake up and still be alone, it is better to stay in the darkness like this, quiet until the moment of death...
"It's better to stay in the dark..."
"At least, there is darkness with me..."
Yongping murmured in a low voice, she closed her eyes in the darkness, and she was slowly closing her eyes in the illusion.
"Qian'er! Qian'er!" At this moment, Li Jue's voice came into his ears.
Yongping in the illusion suddenly opened his eyes.
No! What's wrong with her? How could she want to give up because of such a little ridiculous reason?
Seventeen years ago, my mother lost her life in order to survive with her elder brother.
Seven years ago, for her safety, Lian'er and the wet nurse lost their lives.
For her, my eldest brother compromised with her insatiable father again and again...
So many days have passed, and now she has arrived in Tang State and is about to get married soon. How could she give up?
She has walked through the darkness, how could she give up because of fear when she stepped into the sun?
"Qian'er! Qiang'er! Yongping!" Li Jue called her over and over again, "Princess! Qian'er! I am Li Jue! You wake up! This is an illusion! It will confuse you. You must be firm and not be bewitched!"
Fantasy...
This is the illusion that my elder brother said...
If you have a little fear, the illusion will turn it into ten. If you are a little shaken, the illusion will turn it into desperate situation.
Because she has never really dissipated her fear of darkness, because she admires Li Jue's gentleness and righteousness, because she a little disgusted with the despicableness in her heart.
So the illusion weaves a cage to trap her in it.
Don’t say that Li Jue may not mind those things. Even if he minds, what if she is alone?
When Yongping figured out this, the thousands of ghosts in front of him paused for a moment, and then shattered and shattered.
Li Jue's hands held her hands, warm and powerful.
Yongping opened his eyes and saw that there was still darkness in front of him, but he could vaguely see Li Jue's figure.
"Li Jue?" Yongping called softly.
"Princess... Qiang'er, you're awake." Li Jue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yeah." Yongping nodded.
"Qian'er, Nangong Rui is still alive, why are you wrong? Why do you have to suffer in your heart?" Li Jue knelt on the ground, holding her hand and looking at her seriously, "There are countless people in this world who can harm others. You can't fight back. Since there is a counterattack, why not be afraid of killing? As a human being, as long as you are worthy of heaven and heart."
"You know what I have experienced in the illusion." Yongping whispered, "Your Majesty, don't you dislike my scheming and despicableness?"
"Scheming? Despicable?" Li Jue reached out and rubbed Yongping's head. "The princess thinks that all princes and nobles and royal children can grow up safely, but how many people are not scheming? Even Princess Jingyang and Princess Changle are loved by all, and they need to observe their expressions. What's more, your past situation is so difficult? As for despicable... What is despicable? Using means is despicable? Killing people is despicable? Since you have never killed innocent people indiscriminately and have never taken the initiative to hurt people, how can you say despicable?"
"Don't do this, your hair is messed up for you." Yongping pulled Li Jue's hand down, looked up at the darkness, and suddenly laughed out loud, "Yes! I have never taken the initiative to hurt people, never killed innocent people indiscriminately, and never harmed others for their own selfish interests. How despicable is it? It's ridiculous that I have learned so many classics of the sages and watched the affairs of the government for many years, but were confined to the inner demons and almost swallowed up by the illusion!"
In this life, there may be countless people trying to hurt themselves. If she leaves a shadow full of heart every time and indulges in pain and darkness, how can she be worthy of her life?
"It's best if the princess can figure it out." Li Jue said with a smile.
Yongping chuckled: "Didn't you agree to call me Qiang'er?"
"Qiang'er called me prince, so I can only call me princess." Li Jue leaned forward and approached Yongping a few points, "Qiang'er, are you willing to call me?"
