1185 Your Life Is Not Enough To Compensate (1)
“Pay with your life? Can you afford it?” Lu Wenshuang said loudly. “Do you know what will happen to those soldiers’ parents, wives, and children after losing them?”
“There’s more than one miserable person in this world. So what if there’s more?” Liang Hongxiu’s expression didn’t change as she spoke indifferently. “General, you were born into a noble family. From the day you were born, you were Great Xia’s number one Martial Dao genius. You can have whatever you want. You can naturally stand high and pity us poor people.”
“Are you blaming me?” Lu Wenshuang’s expression was cold as veins appeared on the back of her hand.
“No, I can only be grateful to you, General.” Liang Hongxiu shook her head. “If not for you, I would have died under the demonic beasts in Qingzhou back then. It was you who taught me the Martial Dao and gave me a new life.”
Liang Hongxiu muttered, “I’m just envious. I envy you, General.”
“Liang Hongxiu, is this how you show your gratitude?” Xiao Jianghe couldn’t help saying. “It’s our fault that we didn’t recognize your voice. But if you say that no one remembers you, you’re the one who wronged General Lu!
“Do you know that when you died in battle back then, General Lu lost so much weight that she was only skin and bones?!
“What you’re doing now is heartless!”
“I have no conscience, so just kill me.” Liang Hongxiu smiled sadly. “People like me shouldn’t live in this world. If only I had died back then…”
She looked back at the ruins behind her. “People like me shouldn’t have any delusions.”
A flash of enlightenment appeared in Lu Wenshuang’s frosty eyes. “The sweetheart you told me about back then was my master?”
Back then, after she saved Liang Hongxiu in Qingzhou, Liang Hongxiu had trained the most desperately. At the time, Lu Wenshuang remembered that she had said that she worked so hard so that one day, she could stand proudly in front of her sweetheart.
At the time, Lu Wenshuang was not in love yet, so she didn’t take it to heart.
At this moment, she suddenly realized what was going on!
Zhang San’s pupils constricted. Is what they’re saying not suitable for us to hear?
He subconsciously pulled Xiao Jianghe back.
“Zhang San, what are you doing?” Xiao Jianghe frowned.
Zhang San rolled his eyes. Why are you so dense? How dare you eavesdrop on His Highness’s love life?
“When I met him, he was just a mere Forging Apprentice. At the time, although I was in the Education Bureau, I was a rather popular courtesan…” Liang Hongxiu’s eyes were full of memories. The ruins behind her belonged to the embroidery building of the Education Bureau.
Here, she had once slept with him…
In the countless years after that, she had dreamed of that night countless times. She hated herself for not giving herself to him at the time.
She thought that as long as she worked hard enough, she would be worthy of him one day.
The god of destiny made fools of the people. Who would have thought that he would grow so quickly that, in the blink of an eye, she couldn’t even see his back?
No matter how hard she tried, she would never be able to keep up with him.
In that case, what was the point of her efforts?
Only those who had experienced it personally could understand.
“I’ll never be able to catch up to him. General, I don’t have your talent, nor am I as pure and noble as you. Even the appearance I’m proud of is inferior to yours.” Liang Hongxiu smiled sadly. “Originally, I just wanted to watch him from afar. But General, jealousy will really burn a person’s rationality.
“I want to become strong. I want him to see me. I’m willing to do anything for this.”
Liang Hongxiu’s expression became very calm. She looked at Lu Wenshuang and continued, “Even if I can’t be by his side, I’m willing to become his enemy. Only then can he see me and remember me.
“Unfortunately, I’m just daydreaming.”
At this point, Liang Hongxiu’s eyes were full of bitterness. “He’s too far up there. Even if I want to be his enemy, I’m no longer qualified.
“General, I know my sins are grave. I only ask to die.”
Liang Hongxiu looked straight at Lu Wenshuang.
She had no intention of resisting. She was waiting here to die.
Her only thought was that after she died, her name would be reported to Zhou Shu, letting him know that there had once been a woman in this world called Liang Hongxiu.
Lu Wenshuang was at a loss. She subconsciously turned to look.
Liang Hongxiu caught this glance.
She was pleasantly surprised and flustered as she frantically tidied her hair. “Is he here?”
At this moment, Liang Hongxiu was like a helpless little girl.
Lu Wenshuang had mixed feelings. As a woman, she could understand Liang Hongxiu’s feelings.
But logically, she knew that what Liang Hongxiu had done was unforgivable.
She had sworn that once she found the traitor, she would personally kill them.
But at this point, she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
In her eyes, Liang Hongxiu was just a pitiful woman who couldn’t get what she wanted. Moreover, she was the one who had nurtured her. She really couldn’t bear to do it.
She turned to look at Zhou Shu, wanting to leave the decision to him.
