"Did we win? Or lose?"
Xu Pei's face was haggard and yellow, his eyes were thick blue, his eye sockets were covered with traces of bloodshot eyes, and his forehead was tied with a gray band. Yang Si made him very angry, and Xu Pei has a sensitive and thoughtful personality. Not only did he not get better after lying in bed, but he turned worse.
The whole person seemed to be hollowed out, and it was difficult to turn over and sit up at the moment.
He firmly grasped Han Yu's hand with his skinny hands, turned sideways to face him with his strength, his wide-open eyes flashed with eagerness and urgency.
Xu Pei licked his dry and cracked lips, and said hoarsely, "Wen Bin, tell me!"
Han Yu was wearing a dark blue Confucian shirt, sitting upright and kneeling beside Xu Pei's bed, his calm eyes were filled with a chilling heaviness.
I don't know if it was the indoor light or an illusion, but Xu Pei found that Han Yu's long hair was not as black and smooth as before, but a little gray. Xu Pei involuntarily grasped Han Yu's right hand, and stared at his lips for a moment, expecting good news from his mouth.
Han Yu remained silent for a while, and the two of them remained silent for a long time.
Silence is better than sound.
Although Han Yu didn't say the answer, Xu Pei already understood.
"Yes, did you lose—I see——"
Xu Pei let go of his hand, his body lying on his side lost his support, and he lay back on the bed weakly.
He stared blankly at the roof of the dormitory, and Shen Ke's already weak body became even more tired, as if someone was pulling him down.
"I knew there would be today, and the clinker came so fast. In the end, I underestimated Lanting—" Xu Pei's frowning brows eased, his expression was strangely peaceful, and he couldn't see the traces of hysteria in the past few days. "Are they going to break in?" he asked.
Only then did Han Yu speak, "The enemy army has already begun to attack the city. The city is empty of troops and insufficient supplies. I'm afraid we won't be able to defend the sunset."
Xu Pei turned his head to look at Han Yu, such a simple movement seemed a bit laborious.
"Wen Bin, you and I have a matter...Pei has the cheek to beg, and I hope Wenbin can think carefully..." Xu Pei took a breath, and said in a weak voice, "Zhe County has fallen into the hands of Lanting, but the old and the young in the mansion Their whereabouts are still unknown, and Pei is worried... If Wen Bin still has the strength, please take care of them in the future to save their lives. In this way, Pei can still smile under the nine springs."
Han Yu looked at Xu Pei deeply, "My lord—"
"Don't persuade me, I know how to choose. If I surrender to Lan Ting, according to her temperament, she will probably lock me up and raise me as an idler. As long as I don't make trouble, my life will be safe for the rest of my life, but this is not what I want Please——" Xu Pei coughed again, his calm eyes flashed with scarlet blood, as if a terrifying beast was lurking, his eyes were firm and decisive, "Besides——hehe, Xu Lingwen has the courage to fight to the death, How can I be greedy for life and afraid of death? If I live in an ignoble way right now, I'm afraid I'll be laughed to death by him!"
Han Yu pursed his lips tightly, his expression became paler, as if covered with a thick layer of white ash, exuding a dead silence.
"Here!"
Hearing Han Yu's promise, a slight blush appeared on Xu Pei's withered cheeks, as if a burst of vitality had been injected.
He gestured to get up, and Han Yu raised his hand to help him up.
"Wen Bin, help me prepare some pen and ink, and I will trouble you to hand over the letter from home—"
Han Yu helped him get the pen and ink, Xu Pei picked up the pen with trembling fingers, the pen tip fell to the table with a bang before it fell, and the ink splashed several black circular stains. He gritted his teeth and picked up the pen again. Although he didn't drop it this time, the words he wrote were flimsy and weak.
It is not so much a family letter as it is Xu Pei's suicide note to his family.
The content of the letter was nothing special. He urged his son to study hard and become a pillar of talent that would benefit the people of the world and the country when he grows up. He told his daughter not to forget the teachings of his parents and elders. Tell your wife to take care of the family business. If you have a man you like in the future,
She can take half of her wealth and remarry, don't waste her time.
When Xu Pei made the last stroke, he almost exhausted all his strength.
Han Yu silently helped him dry the letter, added wax, and then packed it into the envelope.
"You have worked hard all these years."
Xu Pei seemed to have let go of his strength, and sat hunched in front of the table, watching Han Yu put the letter into his arms.
Han Yu said, "It's not bitter."
For Han Yu, the previous experience is one trial after another. Whether it is victory or failure, it is a rare experience.
Only by falling hard now and learning the lesson can he avoid the same pit in the future.
Xu Pei's lips twitched, his dry eyes seemed to be filled with tears, and he didn't say a word for a long while.
The bright sun in the sky had already begun to tilt to the west, Xu Pei said silently, "Wen Bin, go down, I want to be alone."
Han Yu got up silently, walked to the door and paused.
"Xinzhao still remembers the first time we met in Shuixie, when you and I talked about the general trend of the world and expressed our hearts, what did you promise?"
Xu Pei was stunned for a moment, his dull brain didn't react immediately.
He spent a lot of time rummaging through that memory, unsure of his authenticity, "Shall we watch the beautiful mountains and rivers together?"
Han Yu said without turning his head, "Xinzhao still remembers, but now he wants to destroy the promise?"
"Wen Bin, please take a good look at me." Xu Pei smiled wryly, "If Lan Ting ascends to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, remember to come to my grave and let me know."
If he lost to such a person, he would die unjustly.
Although Xu Pei came from a family, he also wanted peace in the world, and now he might not see it.
Han Yu's eyes darkened by two points.
"it is good."
Not long after Han Yu left, he bumped into Cheng Xun whose clothes were stained with blood.
"Where is my lord?"
Han Yu said, "Inside the house."
Cheng Xun looked Han Yu up and down, and immediately understood everything.
"Why don't you persuade the lord to break through?" Cheng Xun clenched his molars and said angrily, "Han Wenbin, I respected you, but now I see you blind. A courtier is not loyal to the lord, but in times of crisis If you want to let go, what will you do to the lord?"
Han Yu said, "I have tried my best."
The last hole card was also revealed, and in the end he still failed to kill Liu Xi, and the defeat was already settled.
Cheng Xun's anger remained undiminished, and he became more angry when he saw Han Yu's indifferent reaction. He scolded, "The master humiliated the minister and died, and the master died. You, Han Yu, are greedy for life and afraid of death? The enemy has not yet entered the city. You have already thought out all the retreats, trying to use us to flatter the willow thief?"
Han Yu turned his gaze to Cheng Xun coldly.
"Floating names are things outside of me. I don't need to care what others say. If you think I'm a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, I have nothing to say."
Cheng Xun was so angry that his fingers trembled.
"You have failed the Lord's trust!"
Han Yu said, "It's good to be worthy of the original heart, and I have no shame in my heart."
