Anti-counterattack Law [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 4 Blood Stained Mountains and Rivers 3
In the turbulent world and in the precarious country, how can you think of both love and friendship, family and country?
Knowing that he was doomed to disappoint his wife and children in this life, Lu Qi made up his mind and only gave himself and his wife half a day to enjoy the family happiness of reuniting with their son after a long absence.
Seeing his wife's happy smile, Lu Qi felt as if his heart was being twisted. He hoped that she would have an afterlife, be an ordinary person in a prosperous age, work at sunrise and rest at sunset, with happy children and full of children and grandchildren. He would not teach her to suffer the parting of life and death. suffering.
During the battle, I always heard many refugees lamenting that they would rather be a peaceful dog than a chaotic person. At that time, they thought it was an exaggeration, but now they feel it deeply.
In the afternoon of that day, Lu Qi called Lu Heng to the study, and told him in detail the current situation of Jin State and the future plans. He asked Lu Heng to go to Liang State to welcome back Young Master Ye, and if necessary, to protect him with death.
Lu Heng knelt down in front of Lu Qi, the smile on his face never faded, while listening to Lu Qi's words, he slowly refilled the hot tea for the two of them, and when Lu Qi finished speaking, he didn't answer right away. or not.
Lu Qi is a man of love and righteousness, but his affection is given to the Jin country he is loyal to, and to the people of Jin country he guards.
He may also love his wife and children deeply, but this love is insignificant and too cruel compared with his Jin country.
It is probably the truest thought in Lu Qi's heart to just die for the country on the battlefield, why return the corpse wrapped in horse leather.
He is used to being carefree, so he doesn't quite understand his concern for the country and the people.
After a long time, he raised his eyes and looked directly at him: "Father, have you ever regretted it?"
Lu Qi was stunned for a moment, what do you regret?
Many shadows appeared in his mind, the beautiful mountains and rivers of Jin, the joyous songs and laughter of the people, the bones buried in the yellow sand on the battlefield, the voice and smile of his dead child, the desperate cry of his wife, and the smile of the youngest son in front of him. What's more is the resolute expression of the frontier men who swear to defend their homeland.
The picture in his mind gradually changed from vivid to dim, just like the joys and sorrows he has experienced in these years.
Lu Qi said firmly: "Father is a general of Jin."
From before to now, everything he has done is what he should do and what he wants to do.
Even if the result makes him heartbroken, he will never regret it.
Lu Heng raised his teacup with both hands, and drank the wine: "Father, don't worry, I will welcome back son Ye safely."
This was the first time that Lu Qi saw such a solemn and serious expression on Lu Heng's face since the reunion.
He swallowed a thousand words, stretched out his hand to grab the teacup, and poured all the water in the cup into his stomach: "The entourage is ready, and you will set off for Liang tonight."
Naturally, Lu Heng would not object. Before he left the study, Lu Qi gave him a gift, an exquisitely designed mechanism dagger that was only three inches long.
It is said that this dagger was a favorite of Duke Jin's ancestors and was often carried around. Later, it was given to General Lu Qi and was also carried with him.
Its shape is extremely thin, like a cicada's wings, and its blade is extremely sharp, cutting gold and jade.
When necessary, you can hurt others or yourself.
As soon as night fell, Lu Heng went outside the city to join Lu Qi's prepared staff, and rushed to Liang Guo day and night.
On the fifth day after Lu Heng left, Mrs. Lu finally got the news that Lu Heng was going to Liang country. After a while, she was exhausted and never got up from the hospital bed. The continuous feeding of good medicine only made her suffer for three more days in the hospital bed.
Ever since she fell ill, she was always in a trance, and the memory in her mind was also vague. Until she closed her eyes, she finally had a moment of sobriety, looking at her husband's red eyes, gray hair and aging eyes. Her face, her suppressed mood for many years, was finally relieved.
In the end, she just gasped and said: "You are a good general, I..."
His choice was not wrong, she didn't blame him, she only hated being born in a prosperous age.
In her life, the first half of her life was ups and downs, and the second half of her life was terrified, and now it can finally come to an end.But she tried her best to keep her eyes wide open, looking worriedly at the man who kept her from wandering around and made her suffer from life and death, and finally refused to close her eyes.
Lu Qi has fought for many years and killed countless people. His heart has long been experienced to be colder than ice and harder than copper and iron. But when he faces his wife, he will subconsciously show her all the softness left in his heart, for fear of frightening her. she.
Madam was having a hard time, and Lu Qi couldn't bear to see her continue to suffer, so he lowered his voice: "Go to sleep! The children are waiting for you, and there will be no more suffering in the future."
Madam Lu raised the corners of her lips reluctantly, trying to draw his favorite smile.
But this world has given her too much suffering, her mind has long since disappeared, how can she still smile as clearly as she did back then.
A tear fell from the corner of her eye, and she stared at Lu Qi's face, as if she wanted to engrave him into her soul and take him down.
"In the next life..." she persisted.
"In the next life, we will be two ordinary people in the prosperous age, and there will be no life or death."
They didn't meet each other either, he added in his heart.
He didn't dare to promise her another life at this moment, he was afraid of failing her and disappointing her again.
She finally succeeded in raising her smile, bright and bright, just like when he saw him for the first time, full of anticipation and hope.
In a trance, she seemed to see her young man riding a horse. The young man was angry and dressed in fresh clothes, flamboyant and vigorous, like the rising sun, pulling her out of the darkness and brushing away all the pain in her life.
Lu Qi sat by the bedside of his deceased wife all night, ignoring anyone who called him.
On the second day, he stepped out of the room with a normal expression, and almost indifferently ordered the servants to prepare for the funeral for his wife, while he changed into clean and tidy clothes and entered the palace to discuss matters with the ministers.
The servant looked at Lu Qiyuan's back in horror, the general had changed.
I can't tell you exactly what it feels like, but I just feel that the general is colder than before, and I can't help shivering when I stand beside him. If I accidentally look at him, it will be difficult to even breathe, for fear that the general will cut off his head.
None of the servants dared to slack off what the general personally explained.
The general's mansion quickly put up white sails and sang dirges.
The state of Jin and the state of Liang ruled across the river, but the distance between the capital of Jin and the capital of Liang was more than thousands of miles. After five days and nights, Lu Heng and the others arrived at Pingyang City, the border between the two countries.
Pingyang City is an intermediate city connecting Liang State and Jin State. It belongs to Jin State.
Sitting on horseback, Lu Heng looked up at the vicissitudes of the mottled city wall. He didn't know how much it had gone through to become so scarred. Even so, it still stood majestically, protecting its country and its people.
After watching for a long time, Lu Heng suddenly felt a little heavy in his heart, and said to the left and right: "Go to Pingyang first, and then go to Liangdu after resting for a few days."
On the left and right are dead men chosen by Lu Qi himself for Lu Heng. When Lu Qi personally handed them over to Lu Heng, they only had Lu Heng as their master, and they obeyed his orders.
There have always been many battles on the border, Liang is strong and Jin is weak, and the people of Jin are naturally the targets of bullying.
As soon as the group entered the city, a round head flew towards Lu Heng. Fortunately, he pulled the horse rope and moved away in time, otherwise his clothes, which were already stained with dust, would be stained with blood.
Lu Heng squinted his eyes and looked at the head that rolled to the ground. After the head rolled a few times on the ground, it was kicked under Lu Heng's horse's hooves. The dark red blood scattered from under the head and flowed all over the ground.
From his point of view, he could just see through the scattered hair on the ground his eyes, eyes that were fixed on numbness and despair.
Lu Heng has seen countless eyes like this in his travels, living people, dead people, and living dead people, but it still can't arouse too many touches in his heart.
He glanced twice at the people watching the excitement around him. Most of them had cold expressions. Even if the heads that fell on the ground belonged to their countrymen or family members, they only dared to stand in the crowd blankly. Follow the flow of people.
"Let's go." Lu Heng calmly withdrew his gaze and said in a low voice.
Facing such a group of people who were better off dead than alive, he couldn't even think of scaring them.
He has been to Pingyang City several times, and he knows the general distribution of the city. He skillfully found a temporary residence, asked for hot water and food, washed off the dust, and filled his hungry stomach.
The people in Pingyang City come from all over the world, dragons and snakes are mixed, some are powerful, some are unparalleled in wisdom, and some are evil and kill countless people.
Lu Heng changed into the aristocratic outfit of the Liang Kingdom and went out, because he was dressed in the aristocratic costume of a powerful country, and most people on the street were in awe of him, even the people of the Liang Kingdom, who were domineering in the past, did not dare to be presumptuous.
He found the bookshops of this era familiarly, and there were quite a lot of books in them. Several bookshelves were filled with bamboo slips and silk cloth for customers to buy or read.
Seeing a customer come in, the middle-aged shopkeeper who was flipping through the bamboo slips just glanced at it lightly, then lowered his head and went about his own business, as if he didn't care about everything in the shop.
Lu Heng walked slowly past the bookshelf, his slender knuckles slid across the edge of the bookshelf, and what he finally held in his hand was a book of biographies called 'Qi'.
When checking out, the shopkeeper quoted the price without even looking at the title of the booklet.
Lu Heng paid for the book and had no other communication with the shopkeeper.
On the second day, he entered the book store at the same time, stayed in the store for the same time as yesterday, and bought another biography titled 'Soup'.
When checking out, the shopkeeper's expression was the same as yesterday, except that the brows were a little more complicated.
On the third day, he went to the bookstore again. When he stepped into the store, the owner quickly glanced at him, and then lowered his eyes to read a book.
In the next few days, he will be ignored by the shopkeeper, and he doesn't mind, he can do whatever he wants.
On the seventh day, after selecting the book, he did not leave in a hurry, but walked up to the shopkeeper and asked with a smile, "Which book do you think I got today?"
The shopkeeper raised his head and said seriously: "Master Liu is someone who has important things to do, so don't waste time with the villain."
Lu Heng's eyes turned slightly, and a leisurely and joyful smile appeared on his handsome face. He sat down beside the shopkeeper with a lazy posture.
"How does Mr. know that he is going down six, not Liangren."
Knowing that he was doomed to disappoint his wife and children in this life, Lu Qi made up his mind and only gave himself and his wife half a day to enjoy the family happiness of reuniting with their son after a long absence.
Seeing his wife's happy smile, Lu Qi felt as if his heart was being twisted.
