Chapter 19: Prince Xuan's Honor and Disgrace
In the Zhou Palace, King Xuan of Zhou went to Queen Jiang's place after his court session.
When Queen Jiang saw that the emperor had come, she quickly ordered the maid to serve tea and asked," Your Majesty, you don't look well recently?
King Xuan of Zhou said,"It's all because of the lingering ghosts of Du Bo and Zuo Ru." "When our Great Zhou began, there were many dukes in the world. The area under our jurisdiction was not very large, but we could still command the world.
Queen Jiang said,"The affairs of the country are not the affairs of the harem. The harem does not interfere in politics." Since Your Majesty has mentioned it, may I say a few words?
King Xuan of Zhou said: There are no outsiders here. You're the master of the harem and the queen, what can't you say? Why don't you tell me?
Queen Jiang bowed and said,"I'm afraid I've spoken inappropriately, and I'm afraid Your Majesty will be displeased and punish me."
King Xuan of Zhou hurried to help her and said,"Queen, please get up." Don't be serious, just say it.
Queen Jiang said,"My Great Zhou was originally prosperous, but because of the continuous use of troops by the nomads in the north and the southern tribes, many armies were lost."
King Xuan of Zhou said,"This is my thoughtlessness, which has led to the decline of our Great Zhou Dynasty."
Queen Jiang said,"Buzhou relies on a huge army to command the vassals."
King Xuan of Zhou said,"Yes!" It was also because I blindly used troops that those powerful dukes began to look down on our Great Zhou. He was like a tiger eyeing its prey, making everyone in Tian Zi a bully. What should he do?
Queen Jiang said,"Forgive me for being bold."
King Xuan of Zhou said,"I forgive you."
Queen Jiang said,"The Great Zhou Dynasty's loss of power is not entirely Your Majesty's fault. There is also the fault of your former king's dictatorship." That riot was the first since the Great Zhou Dynasty, causing the Great Zhou Dynasty to lose its prestige. Fortunately, with His Majesty in power, it was not easy to earn credibility, but it was destroyed by His Majesty.
King Xuan of Zhou said,"It's all my fault for interfering in the government of Lu."
Interfering with Lu politics:
In the spring of 817 B.C.(the eleventh year of King Xuan of Zhou), Duke Wu of Lu, the king of Lu, and his eldest son, Gongzi Kuo, and youngest son, Gongzi Xi, appeared before King Xuan of Zhou. King Xuan of Zhou loved Gongzi Xi and wanted to make Gongzi Xi the Crown Prince of Lu. Fan Zhongfu, a doctor of King Xuan of Zhou, dissuaded King Xuan of Zhou from saying that it was not in line with the old system to abolish the old and establish the young. King Xuan of Zhou did not listen and insisted on making his son play the prince of Lu. In the summer of the same year, Duke Wu of Lu passed away after returning to the country. Gongzi Xi succeeded the throne as Duke Yi of Lu.
In 807 B.C.(21st year of King Xuan of Zhou), Bo Yu, the son of Gongzi Kuo, and the people of Lu attacked and killed Duke Yi of Lu. Bo Yu was appointed as the ruler of Lu, and history called him Duke Fei of Lu.
In 797 B.C.(the thirty-first year of King Xuan of Zhou), King Xuan of Zhou attacked the State of Lu and killed the deposed Duke of Lu, Boyu. King Xuan of Zhou asked his ministers who among the sons of the State of Lu was qualified to be the monarch of the State of Lu. Fan Muzhong said that the younger brother of Duke Yi of Lu, Gongzi, said that he was solemn and respectful, respected the elderly, and must follow the etiquette of the previous dynasty when handling matters and law enforcement. King Xuan of Zhou then established a son in the Yi Palace (the temple of King Xuan of Zhou's grandfather, King Yi of Zhou) as the monarch of the State of Lu, Duke Xiao of Lu. After this incident, the reputation of the Zhou emperor had greatly decreased, and many of the vassals had defied the king's orders.
Queen Jiang said to King Xuan of Zhou,"Also, Your Majesty has failed in the war. He has been defeated repeatedly."
In his later years, King Xuan of Zhou used his troops against the surrounding tribes many times, but most of them ended in failure.
In 797 B.C.(31st year of King Xuan of Zhou), King Xuan of Zhou sent troops to attack the Rong of Taiyuan, but they did not succeed.
In 793 B.C.(36th year of King Xuan of Zhou), King Xuan of Zhou sent troops to attack Tiaorong and Benrong (southwest of Xia County, Shanxi Province) and was defeated.
King Xuan of Zhou listened and said,"It's all my fault for being headstrong."
Queen Jiang said,"Things have come to this, and mistakes have been made." What I'm worried about is that once my son, Gong Mo, succeeds the throne, how will he continue to bear the burden of this dilapidated Great Zhou?
Prince Xuan of Zhou listened without saying a word.
King Xuan of Zhou recalled the glory of his new reign.
Conquest:
They were a tribe located in the north and northwest of China. During the reign of King Li of Zhou, they had sent troops to plunder the property and population around Haojing, but were repelled by the minister, Duke Wu, who sent Duoyou. In June of 823 B.C.(the fifth year of King Xuan of Zhou), he attacked the Western Zhou Dynasty again. The main force was concentrated in Jiaohuo (northwest of Jingyang in Shaanxi Province). The vanguard troops arrived in Jingyang (Jingyang in Shaanxi Province), directly threatening the safety of Haojing and Pangjing. King Xuan of Zhou ordered Yin Jifu to lead the army to counterattack. Yin Jifu led the Yuanrong Ten Chariots as the vanguard. He traveled 30 miles a day in Pengya (now northeast of Baishui, Shaanxi Province) to defeat the enemy, and then pursued to Taiyuan (now near Pingliang, Gansu Province). King Xuan of Zhou also sent Nan Zhong to Shuofang (the northern border area) to build a city to ease the threat. In 816 B.C., King Xuan of Zhou sent Guo Ji Zibai to lead an army to attack the city. He defeated the city on the north bank of Luoshui River, beheaded 500 people and captured 50 people. When Guo Ji Zibai returned to the court to hold the prisoner ceremony, he ordered his subordinates to lead the army to pursue the defeated Tuoba and win. After this battle, the Western Zhou Dynasty was relieved of the threat of the Yimo. King Xuan of Zhou held a grand celebration for Guo Jizibai in the Imperial Ancestral Temple to commend his achievements. He rewarded him with horses, bows and arrows, red arrows, axes, and the right to conquer the barbarians.
Conquering Xirong:
Xirong was a collective name for the ancient western tribes of the Celestial Dynasty. They had long threatened the western border of the Western Zhou Dynasty. During the reign of King Xuan of Zhou, he ordered the vassals to attack Xirong many times. In 825 B.C.(the third year of King Xuan of Zhou), King Xuan of Zhou appointed Qin Zhong as a doctor and ordered him to lead troops to attack Xirong. In 823 B.C.(the fifth year of King Xuan of Zhou), Qin Zhong was defeated and died. King Xuan of Zhou summoned Qin Zhong's son, Duke Zhuang of Qin, and his five brothers, gave them 7,000 soldiers and ordered them to crusade against Xirong. After Duke Zhuang of Qin defeated Xirong, King Xuan of Zhou granted Duke Zhuang of Qin the title of doctor in Xicui (present-day Gansu) and granted him the land of Daluoquan Hill (Li County, Gansu).
In addition, Jin had also been ordered to attack Xirong many times. In 806 B.C.(the twenty-second year of King Xuan of Zhou), Marquis Mu of Jin led his army to attack Tiaorong (southwest of Xia County, Shanxi Province). In 803 B.C.(the twenty-fifth year of King Xuan of Zhou), he defeated the local Rong tribe in Qianmu (now south of Jiexiu in Shanxi Province). In 791 B.C.(the 38th year of King Xuan of Zhou), he defeated the Northern Tribes at Fenshui and Xishui.
The Xu Country was a powerful country in the Eastern Barbarians during the Western Zhou Dynasty. Later, under the continuous attacks of the Zhou Dynasty, some tribes of the Xu Country moved south to the Huai River basin and gradually developed into the strongest force in the Huai Yi. When King Xuan of Zhou was in power, he ordered Nanzhong, a minister, and the Imperial Father, the Imperial Master, to reorganize the six divisions in the Taizu Temple, and then personally led the army to attack with the Imperial Father, the Imperial Master, and Sima Boxiu. The army traveled eastward along the Huai River. After a fierce battle, the Zhou army defeated the Xu State. After the Xu Country surrendered, the surrounding countries and tribes all submitted to the Zhou Dynasty. 810 years ago, Nanzhong sent Ju Fu and Gao Fu to Huaiyi. All the countries and tribes received orders to welcome the envoy and offer their wealth.
Conquering the Chu Country:
Chu was also known as Jing Man. Although it was granted the title of Viscount by the Emperor of Zhou, Chu rarely bore the tribute obligations of the Zhou royal family. In addition, the Emperor of Zhou suppressed the development of Chu, discriminated against the King of Chu, and the King of Chu arrogated to himself the title of King. Therefore, Chu repeatedly attracted the crusade of the Zhou royal family. In August of 823 B.C.(the fifth year of King Xuan of Zhou), King Xuan of Zhou led his senior minister, Uncle Fang, as a general and led 3,000 troops to attack the State of Chu, winning a complete victory. According to his calculations, King Xuan of Zhou had used up to 36,000 troops to attack Chu. The Duke of Chu's anti-chime bell unearthed from the tomb of Marquis Mu of Jin should be given to Marquis Mu of Jin after being obtained by King Xuan of Zhou as a trophy in this battle. After the series of wars, Western Zhou's territory and reputation had greatly expanded.
When Hong De heard that Si Wuchen was going to get married, he brought some money and nice wedding dresses to Si Family with Buyu. Outside Si Family's door, Hong De deliberately asked," Was this Si Wuchen's home?
Si Zeng saw that someone was looking for Si Wuchen, so he came out and said with a smile," Yes, you are
When Hong De saw Si Zengjian, he said,"You're Si Zengjian's brother, right?"
Si Zengjian said,"Yes." May I ask who you are?
Hong De smiled and said,"I'm a distant relative of Si Wuchen."
Si Zengjian received him warmly and said with a smile," Oh oh! Please come in.
Honder walked in and looked around the room. The house was spacious, quiet and elegant.
When Si Zeng saw him, he quickly let him sit down.
When Zhang Shi heard that someone was looking for Si Wuchen, she stuck her head out of her room. Isn't this the rich young master I saw the other day? I'll go and see what he's up to.
Si Zeng saw that Hong De and Zi Buyu were invited inside and asked while preparing a cup of water for them," Why don't I know you? She had never heard Wu Chen mention that she had any wealthy relatives!
Honder smiled and said,"Oh!" We live far away and rarely come to each other for no reason. I don't come here much either. Sister Wu Chen is getting married, so we rushed over.
"Oh!" Si Zeng poured two cups of water and said," I'm sorry, we're in a remote village. There's nothing to entertain us with. We can only have plain water.
Hong De smiled and said,"Water is good." They were all relatives, so being polite would be treating them as outsiders.
Si Zeng smiled and said,"Yes, they are all relatives." Who didn't know about their family's background? Wu Chen is in my family, so she knows my family's background. Otherwise, outsiders would think that I'm not enthusiastic enough.
Honder smiled and said,"Yes." In this era, not a single family was poor enough to not be calculative. As long as it was a gift, no one would care if it was good or bad.
Si Zengjian said again,"Yes." Unlike when his father was still alive, he could still support some people and support them. Her father was not around, and she was getting worse by the day. I don't know how to do business. It wasn't easy for me to earn two, but they were robbed again. I'm really useless. However, if Sister Wu Chen follows me, I'm afraid she'll have to suffer.
Honder smiled and said,"Yes, business is not good now." There were many unemployed people, and beggars were rampant. If they were not careful, they would destroy the bottom of others.
Si Zeng Jian suddenly smiled and said,"Look at me. I've told you so much, but I still don't know your name."
"You can just call me Honder," said Horton.
Si Zengjian asked again,"Who is this?"
Honder said,"He's my brother. You can just call him Speechless."
Si Zengjian smiled and said,"It's a good name indeed." It was good not to say anything. There were some things that needed to be said, but it was not good to speak. It seems that your parents are also educated and reasonable people.
When Zi Buyu heard this, she laughed it off.
Si Zeng said,"Brother Hongde, where do you get rich?" Why don't you bring your underlings along tomorrow?
When Honder heard this, he said casually,"This is easy." After you get married, I'll try to find you a job. It won't be a problem.
Si Zeng Jian laughed and said," Thank you, thank you. Oh! By the way, why is Brother Hong De looking for Wu Chen?
Honder laughed and said,"Oh!" Look at me, I've forgotten about serious matters. I'm here to give you some money to prepare for your wedding. I've also specially asked someone to custom-make a wedding dress for Sister Wu Chen to wear during her wedding.
Si Zengjian said happily," How can I let you spend money on this? I'm sorry.
However, Hong De said,"My sister Wu Chen is such a beautiful person. Her wedding naturally can't be pushed back."
Zhang shi knew Hong De, and when he overheard this, she said in her heart,"This corpse dump is really stupid. He doesn't even know how he was sold, and he's even helping others count the money. However, who would be kind enough to help you in this day and age? Looks like I have to step in." He walked in and said with a smile,"Yeah!" A relative came to his brother's house?
Si Zeng Jian smiled and said,"Yes, it's a distant relative of Wu Chen's younger sister who came to give Wu Chen money."
Zhang Shi smiled and said,"Aiyo!" So many gifts? So much money? Aiyo! There was such a beautiful wedding dress. It was really thoughtful. There was really such a kind-hearted person in the world!
Si Zeng could tell that something was not right, but he thought that Zhang shi was jealous, so he did not take it seriously. Instead, he smiled and said to Hong De, This is my sister-in-law.
When Hong De heard Zhang shi's words, he knew that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it. Seeing Si Zengjian introduce him, he agreed with a smile and said, Oh! It's my wife. Nice to meet you.
Zhang shi acted as if nothing had happened and said, Yes, it was a pleasure to meet you. Our poor family will have hope in the future. If we meet a rich person, we can sell this family.
Si Zeng saw that he couldn't listen, so he said,"Sister-in-law, why do you say that?"
"Why do you say that? Slowly experience it?" As Zhang shi spoke, she pulled Si Zeng Jian to the side and whispered, Why are you keeping them? Why aren't you chasing them away? They were not good people.
When Si Zeng Jian heard this, his expression changed and he said in his heart,"I was wondering why there was such a kind person?" He came over with a smile, but his tone had already changed as he asked her to leave, I appreciate Young Master's kindness. However, we cannot accept your money and clothes. I won't keep you here, please do as you please.
Hong De still wanted to say something, but he said,"Brother Zeng Jian, you don't have to be so polite with me. I have good intentions. I don't have any other intentions."
"Young Master, please." Si Zeng Jian made a gesture to invite him out. After hearing the other party's words, he said, I don't have any other intentions. We're not familiar with each other, so it's not good for me to accept money and goods that come from brainless people. If you have anything to say, it's better to talk about it later. It's really inconvenient to meet guests today. Please forgive me.
Hong De quickly said," Brother Zeng Jian, I really don't have anything. You should take these. They'll be useful for your wedding."
Seeing that Si Zeng didn't completely lose face when he saw Tai Renyi, he came up and stuffed the money and goods to Hong De. She smiled and said,""We're from a small family. We don't even have enough to eat, so we won't keep your food.”He forcefully pushed them towards the courtyard gate and said,"Let's go, let's go. We're a small family. We can't keep a rich man." Although money is good, it's not ours. We don't want it. We can't afford it.”At the entrance of the courtyard, the moment he pushed out of the courtyard, he heard the sound of the door slamming. He closed the door and stood in the courtyard with his hands on his hips. Who was going up? The bully actually came straight to his door. How could this be? What's so great about being rich? Although we're poor, we don't have eyes for it!
Honder was invited out of the door.
Zi Buyu felt injustice for Hong De and said," What family? He really did not know how to appreciate favors. My young master is the crown prince of Bao Kingdom. If he comes to your house, it's your ancestral grave that's emitting blue smoke.
"Alright, let's not talk about this," said Honder. I think there must be some misunderstanding inside. Let's go and wait for Sister Wu Chen to come back.
Zi Buyu said angrily,"Who's going up?" Don't look at their calm faces. Who didn't know how tightly they gritted their teeth? Humph! And you're still pretending to be heartless? You thought that no one knew that you could only cry silently when you cried.
Honder said,"Alright, don't say anymore."
Zi Buyu said,"Maybe she's not in this house." Didn't you see that you were pushing and shoving each other? If your sister Wu Chen was at home, wouldn't she come out to see what was going on?
Hearing this, Honder said,"That's true. Why didn't I think of it?" Oh right, let's go and ask.
Zi Buyu said,"What else do you want to ask?" Would others say that? They won't tell you, they're like this.
"Then what should we do?" asked Horton.
Zi Buyu thought for a moment and said," There was a local custom in the next village, which was that men and women who were about to get married were not allowed to meet. I think Wu Chen must be at her parents 'house.
When Honder heard this, he said,"But we don't know her parents."
Zi Buyu said,"Ask someone!"
"But they've already shut us out," said Honder.
Zi Buyu smiled and said,"It's good to arrange things outside the door today!" It was naturally inappropriate to ask them. Ask the villagers here, they will tell us.
Hong De and the others didn't walk far when they saw an old villager. They went up to ask around and found out where Si Wuchen's foster parents lived.
Hong De arrived at Si Wuchen's foster parents 'place, pointed at the three thatched huts with earth walls and asked," Was this Si Wuchen's parents 'hometown?
Father Sang, who was chopping firewood, stopped when he saw a well-dressed young master coming to ask his daughter," Who are you?
Zi Buyu quickly smiled and said,"Oh!" My young master is Si Wuchen's friend.
Mother Sang, who was washing clothes, saw that a rich young master had come to look for her daughter. She immediately remembered that her daughter had given her money to supplement her family's expenses. Where did his daughter's money come from? The old lady of the Si family was stingy. Thinking that it was this rich young master's help, she warmly welcomed him and said, Are you looking for me, Qiao Lian?
Hong De and Zi Buyu were stunned when they heard that.
Seeing the other party's confusion, Mother Sang quickly explained, Oh! It's like this, Qiao Lian. It's the name my family uses. Si Wuchen was used by the Si Clan.
Hong De and Zi Buyu only understood after hearing this.
Father Sang saw the old woman talking to the guests and continued to work.
Hong De asked,"Wu Chen, oh!" Where is Qiao Lian now?
Mother Sang smiled and said,"Oh!" My Qiao Lian went out and will be back soon.
Hearing this, Honder nodded.
Mother Sang was afraid that she would treat the honored guest badly, so she stopped smiling and said to her husband," Old man, why are you still dying? Why aren't you inviting the guests to sit in the house? Seriously, why are you still standing there chopping firewood? He didn't know how to entertain people.
Hearing this, Father Sang quickly got up and welcomed Hong De and the others into the house. His expression was obviously reluctant as he said to himself, I've always known that my Qiao Lian was born into a poor family. How could she have any rich relatives? Not even the Si Clan. Who knew what kind of bad feelings he had when a rich relative suddenly appeared out of nowhere? Could it be that I, Qiao Lian, have some dogshit luck? Indeed, why didn't there be one in those years? That was strange.
"Seriously, what's the use of having a man like you at home? If it wasn't for me holding you back, you wouldn't be able to live your life.”Mrs. Sang said and went to another room to bring the kettle and bowls.
Honder was welcomed into the house.
Zi Buyu entered the house, still holding the package. He was not sure if it was Si Wuchen's house yet.
When Father Sang saw the old woman's kettle and bowl, he wiped the bottom of the bowl with his sleeve and put some tea made of willow leaves in the two bowls. He also said politely,"We are far from the city, so there is no good reception." This is the best leaf tea we can make. I'm afraid you won't be used to it.
Hearing this, Honder smiled and said,"It's okay, I'm not particular about it."
Father Sang brewed the tea and handed it to the two of them, waiting for them to taste it.
Hong De didn't want to drink the tea soaked in leaves in the dirty bowl, but seeing Father Sang's eyes staring at him, he forced himself to take a sip of the willow leaf tea and said,"Uncle, this tea is very good.”After saying that, he pretended to take a big gulp.
When Father Sang heard the noble young master say that it was delicious, he immediately said, It was good that it was delicious.
Hong De was waiting for Si Wuchen, so he looked around and saw that the house was empty except for four tall stools around a square table. The ground was potholed, and there was a bird's nest on the roof beam, but no swallow. Yes, it was freezing cold now, and the swallows had long disappeared. Thinking of the swallows flying to the warm place, I don't know if they will come back next year. It was just that this person was still waiting in this empty room with a cold pot and a deflated stove, but he did not know where to go. Why was he so one-track minded? Little did she know that her place would change everything here and return it to her family.
Father Sang sat beside him and felt that he had nothing to say. He introduced Qiao Lian to Hong De and said, My daughter has a hard life. I picked her up from the river
Honder listened.
Zi Buyu had been looking at the small path outside the door, but her sharp eyes noticed Si Wuchen walking back with a load of firewood. She even switched her shoulders from time to time, so she said," Young Master, isn't that firewood picker Si Wuchen?
Hearing this, Father Sang went out and looked over. He smiled at Hong De and said," My daughter, Qiao Lian, has returned.
When Honder heard that, he went out and said," It was Sister Wu Chen. Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and help her change.
When Zi Buyu heard this, he threw down his bag and flew over.
Honder quickly said,"Buyu, come back. Don't go. I'll go."
When Zi Buyu heard this, he stopped but still followed Hong De.
Hong De came to Si Wuchen and said," Sister Wu Chen, let me help you choose.
Si Wuchen, who was panting heavily, said," No need. Why are you here?
"Why can't I come here?" asked Horton. Sister Wu Chen, let me help you choose.
Si Wuchen said," You were born in a rich family. How could you bear the burden?" Forget it, I'll do it myself.
Hong De said,"You can't carry a burden just because you're born into a rich family?" If you let me pick, wouldn't I have done it? Come, let me do it.
Si Wuchen said," That's what servants do."
Honder said,"What do you mean by superior and subordinate?" A man is not as big as a man. Come, let me choose.
Si Wuchen couldn't get rid of it, so he passed the pole over.
Honder took the carrying pole and said,"Aiyo!" This load of firewood is not light. Do you want to die?
Si Wuchen said with a smile," We were born in a poor family. We're used to it. It doesn't matter."
Hong De said,"No matter how used you are to it, you have to protect yourself."
Si Wuchen said,"How can I not do more?" My adoptive parents are already old, but my two sisters-in-law are still young. I've already done very little for this family. Now that I'm getting married, I won't be able to do much for this family. I'll gather more firewood for them while I'm here.
Honder asked,"Aren't you afraid that there will be wolves, tigers, and leopards in the mountains?"
Hearing that, Si Wuchen said with a relaxed smile," He was not afraid. To tell you the truth, I'm an old acquaintance in this mountain. Wolves, tigers, and leopards give way to me when they see me. Those rabbits and birds often snuggle up to me! Once, I saw a tiger appear and my heart almost fell out of my chest. Who knew that the tiger would look at me, shake its head, wagging its tail, and leave.
Honder asked,"Really?" Are you kidding me? I don't believe that there's a tiger that doesn't eat people.
Si Wuchen said, Why would I lie to you? It was true. Also, every time I get tired of collecting firewood, I'll take a break. There will be rabbits coming over for me to hug, and many birds will gather to sing. I don't feel tired at all.
Honder was carrying a pole that bent under the weight. He didn't feel any burden when Si Wuchen talked to him.
Zi Buyu's heart ached for Young Master Hongde, so he grabbed the burden and said,""Take your time to chat." After saying that, she quickly picked it up and left.
Seeing Hong De slow down, Si Wuchen stood up with small steps and asked," Prince, why did you come here to find me today?
Honder said,"My friend is getting married, why can't I come and take a look?"
Si Wuchen said," As the saying goes, men and women shouldn't touch each other. Do you know what others will think of me if you come looking for me? What would my husband's family think of me?
When Hong De heard this, he turned around and said without going to the Sang family, I'm a gentleman. What's there to be afraid of?
Si Wuchen followed him and said,'You're not afraid of anything, but I am.'
Hong De said,"Sister Wu Chen, I really don't have any other intentions for coming here today." I just thought, what should I do for my beautiful sister when she gets married? Make her pretty. Married off in a glorious manner. So, I came today to give you some money so that you can buy whatever you want. Also, I made a wedding dress for you with the best silk from Zeng Country. I hope you can wear it when you get married.
Si Wuchen said, I don't want to. Take it back the way you took it. I can't repay you for what you gave me last time. I don't want to owe anyone a favor. Yes, I didn't, but I didn't have the law to pass!
Honder said,"I don't care about that much." I have the ability to like others, but I don't have the ability to make others like me. Can't I even look at her? Can't I just live a better life for the person I love?
Si Wuchen said," You know you're wasting your energy like this. You'll only make people hate you." If a person doesn't love you, even if you say all kinds of good things, it's still noise. Even if your eyes are full of tears, it'll become acid rain.
"I don't understand why I'm not good enough," said Honder. But I can't enter your heart. I know it's useless to miss you. I'm not in your dreams, and when you wake up, you're still dreaming that you won't love me. I don't know what's so good about you, but you're worth me being incurable. However, not all emotions have to be told to you. Love was like a curse, knowing that it was impossible, but it would still be stupid for you. Since I can't touch someone who doesn't love me, I just want to do my best to do something for her. I just want to give you the best. Can't you give me a chance?
Si Wuchen said," Being entangled with each other will only make them struggle in pain."
Honder said,"Actually, there's only one person you like the most. Is there a need to say it?" However, after I fell in love with you, I devoted my entire life to you. As long as it was worth it, he did not care about the vicissitudes of life. Since she still loved him, how could she say that she had let him go? You are like a flower
Si Wuchen interrupted him," If I were a mortal flower, I would only be a mortal flower that bloomed in the dust. I'm not worthy of you."
