I'm the villain in the book

Page 366

Of course, not many people know the truth about this matter, so it's normal that Tianjilou didn't find out what happened.

But even if the latter knew the truth, he would not have dared to write Ning Yongnian's name.

"cut......"

Curling his lips, Wei Changtian immediately lost interest in this list that was not "objective and fair".

His eyes moved down quickly, and after glancing at the familiar names, he finally found himself in No.40.

Last time it was 27, this time it was 48...why did the ranking drop? ?

There are a total of 50 people on the black list, and you are about to fall off the list? ?

Wei Changtian was greatly surprised, and fixed his eyes on the small characters behind his name.

[On the ninth day of September in the 14th year of Tianji, the prime minister was beheaded in the capital]

[On the second day of February in the 15th year of Tianji, he wrote nine poems handed down in succession at the Spring Dragon Poetry Association in Shuzhou, and extradited the real dragon]

[April 15th, Tianji [-]th year, alone in the city of Yuanzhou against thousands of troops, defeated Meng Shi with one move, and cut three ranks with one blow]

[Tianji 15th June [-]th, defeated the third rank at the West Desert Gobi Longmen Inn...]

【...】

One by one, everything he has done in public is basically recorded in the book.

The last time I read it, there was only the first one. I didn’t expect that I have already memorized seven or eight lines.

Obviously, in the eyes of Tianjilou, many of the things he did are not considered "evil deeds", especially those like Chunlong Shihui's poetry writing and Yuanzhou City's rescue of Liang Zhen are more "chivalrous acts".

There is good and there is evil, and the two cancel each other out, so my ranking will drop...

Tsk tsk tsk, I don't know if I can break into the top five rankings after I lead my troops to wipe out the 30 counter-insurgency army.

"What bullshit, wasting my time..."

Shaking his head, Wei Changtian casually threw the booklet aside, then bent down and got out of the carriage.

The General Military Mansion is still the same as before, with the vermilion gate tall and imposing.

However, the plaque engraved with "General Military Mansion" has been removed and replaced with the words "Liang Mansion".

This is also normal.

After all, Liang Zhen is no longer the commander-in-chief of Shuzhou, but the Minister of the Ministry of War of Shu State.

"..."

"Things are different..."

Looking at Zhang San who was knocking on the door, Wei Changtian suddenly sighed for no reason.

......

A quarter of an hour later.

Facts have proved that Wei Changtian's exclamation just now is not very accurate.

Among other things, at least Liang Zhen's wife is still as old as before, exactly the same as the one Wei Changtian saw in the capital, and she doesn't have the slightest sense of "things are different from people".

"Auntie!"

"Chang Tian, ​​come here and let Auntie take a look!"

"My aunt hasn't seen you in Shuzhou for so many days, what are you busy with on weekdays?"

"..."

After being courteous with "Auntie" for a long time, Wei Changtian did not treat himself as an outsider when he came to the table for dinner, and at the same time he also met Liang Qin.

It can be seen that the latter is in a very complicated mood at the moment, and he always secretly looks here when eating.

However, Wei Changtian was not used to chatting about serious matters during meals, so he only talked to her about a few homely things that didn't hurt.

In this way, it took almost half an hour to eat a meal, and then the aunt said she was not feeling well, and she wanted to go back to the house alone to rest for a while.

Wei Changtian and Liang Qin naturally understood the meaning. After all, the joy on the former's face was too obvious, and he didn't look like he was ill.

"..."

"Brother Changtian, why are you here today?"

After sending his mother, who was eager to marry him, out of the house, Liang Qin slowly went back and sat down opposite Wei Changtian: "Aren't you and dad very busy now?"

"It's pretty busy."

Wei Changtian nodded, raised the teacup and took a sip of tea: "Uncle Liang and I will lead troops to Guanghan in a few days, and we have been busy with dispatching troops recently."

"Is it?"

Liang Qin lowered his head, with some worry and loss on his brows: "Then you are going...how long will you be back?"

"Wait until the imperial army is driven back."

Wei Changtian smiled and said, "If it's quick, it will only be a month."

"Well, I see..."

Liang Qin nodded slightly, pinching his fingers unconsciously.

Her current appearance was far from her previous carefree personality, so it was no wonder that Liang Zhen was worried.

However, Wei Changtian could roughly guess why she became like this, so he purposely joked:

"Huh? Why didn't you clamor to follow this time?"

"what?"

Liang Qin was taken aback for a moment, then raised his head immediately: "I, can I go?"

"Nothing is impossible."

Wei Changtian smiled, stood up and stretched: "Let's go, accompany me to the courtyard."

"Just tell me what you think, why do you look like a different person in just half a year?"

"..."

Liang Zhen and his wife have actually asked the same question countless times.

And Liang Qin hadn't answered before, maybe he didn't know how to answer.

But this time she didn't hesitate at all.

"Ah."

"Brother Changtian, I, I actually have a lot to say to you..."

Chapter 422 Failure Does Not Mean Error

The night sky is quiet, a pale crescent moon hangs obliquely on the horizon, and the sky is full of stars twinkling.

Wei Changtian and Liang Qin walked side by side in the courtyard of the General Military Mansion, surrounded by moonlight.

This situation can't help but remind him that the two of them took a walk in Wei's mansion more than a year ago like today.

At that time, I just "knew" Liang Qin, Wei Xianzhi and Liang Zhen intended to match them up, but the former didn't want to marry.

The reason is very simple, because Liang Qin doesn't want to marry a big devil who kills without blinking an eye.

And to be honest, Wei Changtian didn't want to marry her either.

Only later, the magical "fate" threw them all to Shuzhou.

As if in the blink of an eye, more than a year has passed since all of this.

Wei Changtian has proved through practical actions that he is not the only son of the Wei family who did all kinds of evil before.

But the way of heaven has played tricks, and the good fortune is playing tricks on people...

The belief in Liang Qin's heart about "loyalty to the monarch and justice to the country" collapsed with a trip to Yuanzhou.

......

"Brother Changtian, do you know..."

"When my father and I first arrived in Yuanzhou City, Wu Ding once told us that even if all of Daning's troops were killed in battle, they would definitely not withdraw from Yuanzhou City."

"At that time, Dafeng attacked the city every day, and we defended the city every day."

"Although many people died, I think it was worth it."

"I thought we were protecting the lives of the people in Yuanzhou City. I thought those black armored soldiers outside the city were the most hateful people in the world."

"But on a certain day, Wu Ding suddenly took out Ning Yongnian's imperial edict, saying that he wanted the army to withdraw to Feng County and hand over Yuanzhou City to those black armored soldiers."

"At that time, many people were unwilling and did not want to withdraw."

"But the sacred order is hard to break, so we can only comfort ourselves that we will call back one day."

"But, but..."

"..."

"You also know what happened afterwards. The Shuzhou Army and the Liangzhou Army were intercepted in the city."

"At that time, we didn't believe that the imperial court was plotting against us. Father could tell that the army would definitely return in a few days."

"But they left us without looking back."

"We knew at that time that there would be no more reinforcements, so Wen Wen persuaded Dad to join the enemy with him."

"Daddy refuses. Daddy said that even though this is Ning Yongnian's conspiracy, he is still Daning's general."

"Actually, I thought so too."

"And the [-] soldiers from Shu State, they also think the same..."

"For the people in Yuanzhou City, for Daning, we are willing to die."

"But, why..."

"Why didn't even Dafeng kill the people in vain, but, but...but they are still dead!"

"Why did Ning Yongnian kill them!"

"Is it just to bury the 50 soldiers!"

"Woooo! Brother Chang, Brother Changtian, why!!!"

"..."

Tears and painful questioning were mixed in the moonlight, sweeping away the night.

From calm, to swallowing more, and then to howling like venting.

Liang Qin suddenly threw himself into Wei Changtian's arms, grasping Wei Changtian's lapel with both hands, his body trembling unceasingly.

In contrast, Wei Changtian was much calmer.

He just kept patting Liang Qin's shoulder lightly and sighed inwardly.

Ugh.

For a "second-generation official" who has not experienced much beatings in society, but has a benevolent heart, Liang Qin would be puzzled, and even his beliefs collapsed.

After all, the education she has received since she was a child is "loyalty to the emperor and righteousness to the country", and she can sacrifice everything including life for the emperor and the country.

This wasn't a big deal in the first place.

But when the emperor she was loyal to did something that completely violated her moral values, and even broke the bottom line, the fierce conflicts that arose were devastating.

If Liang Qin had a wealth of social experience, it might be better to understand the dangers of the human heart.

Just like Liang Zhen, he must have experienced this kind of ambivalence.

However, since the latter's mind is very mature, a solution will soon be found——

That is to renew allegiance to a new "monarch" who matches his moral outlook.

And there is no doubt that this new "monarch" is Wei Changtian.

This should be the reason why Liang Zhen supported his rebellion so decisively this time.

But for Liang Qin, it was obvious that she still couldn't figure it out.
