Chapter 392 Tears That Don't Weep (Part 1)
Liu Jing grabbed Lin Ying's lapel, her veins were bulging, but Lin Ying was still smiling.
While the two were in a stalemate, a small boat was sailing in the distance. Shu'er stood on the bow of the boat, dressed in plain clothes and a white skirt. Through the reed flowers blown up by the evening wind, she saw the scene under the red glow from a distance. She ordered
The boatman rowed faster, but he was afraid of alerting Liu Jing and the Song troops who were ambushing around him, so he asked the boatman to move more slowly.
Liu Jing was so angry that she didn't notice the boat in the distance. He said to Lin Ying: "You killed the person who gave me the advice, and then you wanted to kill me, the person who used the advice, don't you? You think it's easy to kill me.
Is it easy? Is it as easy as me killing you?"
Lin Ying smiled and said: "Why should I kill you? The Song Dynasty is already so poor that there is nothing left of it. What difference does it make whether to kill the King of Song or not?"
Liu Jing said: "Those assassins are all Chu people!"
Lin Ying said: "The person who suggested the idea was not from Chu. If I really wanted to send an assassin to kill you, why would I send someone from Chu? I can admit the things I have done, but you should not arbitrarily deduct the things I have not done."
On to my head."
Liu Jing just wanted to punch Lin Ying's face full of ridicule and disdain, but he saw the boat approaching not far away and Shu'er on the bow, who had not been seen for a long time, so he could only endure it.
He slowly let go of Lin Ying, but his right hand unconsciously grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist. He held it tightly, but could not take it out of the sheath.
Lin Ying turned her head and saw the woman in plain clothes who was already close at hand, so she smiled and saluted Liu Jing lightly: "The person you want to see is here, but I will take her away."
When Lin Ying turned around and walked towards Shu'er's boat, Liu Jing was still frowning and holding the hilt of the sword tightly, staring at Lin Ying without saying a word.
Seeing this, Ling Fei suddenly pulled out his sword, walked around Liu Jing, pierced Lin Ying's back with the sword, and quickly pulled the sword out of Lin Ying's body.
Lin Ying had never been injured by a sword. At this moment, a cold sword suddenly passed through her body and was suddenly pulled out quickly. Before she could feel the sharp pain, she had already stepped onto Shu'er's boat.
Before the other foot could stand firmly, another flying arrow came from the reeds and pierced Lin Ying's chest with a "swish".
Lin Ying pulled out the sword from her chest with one hand and held Shu'er's sleeve with the other. She tried to stand firm and whispered: "Xiao En is in the awning boat behind them. Young Master Sui's boat is nearby.
He will save Xiao En himself. Take me to the doctor quickly."
Before she finished speaking, Lin Ying staggered and immediately pulled Shu'er and fell to the bow of the boat. The boat shook and Shu'er was unable to stand steadily, so she was dragged down and sat down. Shu'er said to the boatman of her boat: "Hurry up.
Go back to the shore quickly!" He then shouted to the boatman of the other boat that brought Lin Ying here: "You also go back to the shore and ask for the doctor! You need hemostatic medicine!"
As the boat turned around, Liu Jing looked at Shu'er coming and going, but he didn't see her look directly at him.
Liu Jing was about to scold Ling Fei for being reckless, but saw another boat appear out of nowhere and approach the black awning boat carrying Xiao En and Ling Zi. Ling Fei immediately jumped onto the black awning boat to protect Ling Zi and Xiao En.
The one who came was none other than Dongfang Sui.
Dongfang Sui was fighting with Ling Fei and the Song guards on the ship. Xiao En hesitated for a moment, then suddenly bit Ling Zi's arm and quickly ran onto the Chu ship. Dongfang Sui wanted to jump onto Liu Jing's boat.
He poked several transparent holes in the boat, but thought it would be better to take Xiao En away quickly, so he jumped back on the Chu State's boat and quickly left the place of right and wrong.
In the reed swamp, the armies of Chu and Song were setting up their bows and arrows, and they could only hear the "swish" sound of arrows.
Liu Jing's ship quickly retreated to the cover of the Song army, and fled in pursuit of the Chu army.
…
The sky is getting late and the red clouds have dissipated.
Lin Ying was wearing dark clothes, and her lower abdomen and chest were covered with large amounts of bright red blood.
The boat was moving quickly, and the solitary swan was startled.
He leaned quietly in Shu'er's arms, holding the arrow tightly with one hand and still holding Shu'er's sleeve with the other.
Shu'er hugged Lin Ying, and her tears couldn't stop dripping onto his clothes, mixing with the blood staining his clothes. Her tone was urgent, and she couldn't tell whether it was reproach, nervousness or fear: "Why don't you bring a guard?
Why didn't you tell me in advance? Why did you go into danger alone? Why did you come to see him in person? Why..."
Lin Ying gently tugged on her sleeves and said in a low and soft voice: "Sister Shu'er, don't worry, listen to me."
Shu'er immediately became quiet.
The cramps in her abdomen gradually became numb, and Lin Ying's lips turned pale as she tried her best to say: "God's calculations are not as good as those of others. After all, I acted too hastily."
The blood flowed slowly and stained the deck red, but Chu's wide robe and long sleeves, and Lin Ying's dark sleeves fell on the deck, blocking the red under her body, so Shu'er couldn't see a trace.
Lin Ying's voice was so low that Shu'er could only lean towards his lips to listen. "Sister Shu'er, I thought I could always be with you and Xiao En, but unexpectedly something went wrong today...
I probably won’t be able to accompany you in the days to come.”
Shu'er looked at Lin Ying with red eyes: "Don't talk nonsense! We will arrive soon, you will be fine!"
Lin Ying whispered: "Promise me three things."
Shu'er nodded repeatedly: "Ten items, eight items, a thousand items, hundreds of items, tell me one by one, and I will agree to them all!"
Lin Ying tried her best to smile.
"The first thing is that after I die, you will be the King of Chu. You will ascend the throne wearing a red dragon robe and you will not be allowed to wear plain clothes for me.
The second thing - about me, unless I tell you personally, don't believe anything anyone else says.
The third item..."
Lin Ying's voice was already weak.
"The third thing is that crying hurts your body. After today, don't shed any more tears.
Just these three things, will you agree?"
Shu'er had no time to think: "I promise you, I promise everything."
Lin Ying breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to raise her hand to wipe away Shu'er's tears, but was unable to do so. She could only continue to hold Shu'er's sleeve and look at her reluctantly.
Forgive me... Since I can no longer protect your safety and happiness, I will let the position of King of Chu protect your safety and happiness. Only when you ascend the throne of Chu will Liu Jing cease his activities and not invade the Chu country. Little Dongfang will understand, and so will everyone in the Chu country.
I understand. As the King of Chu, no matter what you want to do, you can do whatever you want. I have already cleared up the intertwined forces in the court for you.
Only today did I realize what a broken heart is and what a short life is.
But after I leave, who will you let accompany you through the long road? Will you always live in hatred and pain? Will you miss me? Will you know my affection for you?
, too late to regret?
Regret is the longest pain.
I can't let you be as miserable as I am today.
Lin Ying used her last bit of strength and said slowly and softly: "As you saw just now, the person who stabbed me with the sword was Ling Fei, not Liu Jing. At that time, Liu Jing never ordered me to be hurt, but Ling Fei,
It was probably a public revenge for a private vendetta.
Also... about the Peerless Peak incident... I sent someone to advise Liu Jing. I... also avenged my private revenge. The person who harmed my father could only be King Wei. King Wei did not do many things with his own hands, but he must have done it himself.
Because of him..."
The night covered the reeds, and Lin Ying's voice was already weak and inaudible.
All the reluctance and worries are beyond explanation.
The blood went from warm to cold, from cold to numb... Lin Ying closed her eyes, thinking that the "never leave" he said to Shu'er many, many years ago turned out to be nothing, and the last drop of tears gradually came out of the corners of her eyes.
