Chapter 1036: Lu Su's decision!

~8 min read 1,431 words

Feeling the gazes of Lu Su and Gao Yao, Cui Wenzi glanced at Su Xuan, who was not far away, looking leisurely and seemingly detached, took a deep breath, and said to Gao Yao and Lu Su, "I don't know much about Yi Xiaochuan's affairs."

"In fact, I met him by chance in Xianyang, but I did hear him talk about some of his encounters."

Immediately, Cui Wenzi recounted what he knew.

Upon learning that Yi Yi Xiaochuan had arrived in Xianyang several months ago and had been staying in Xianyang, Lu Su and Gao Yao were shocked, because during this time, they were also in Xianyang, yet they had not run into Yi Yi Xiaochuan.

It could only be said that Xianyang was too big.

Sometimes, when fate had not arrived, it was difficult to meet the other party.

Immediately after, the two put away their thoughts and listened quietly to Cui Wenzi talk about Yi Yi Xiaochuan's past.

According to Cui Wenzi's words "493", on the day they parted at Tangwu Mountain, he and Gao Yao first met Liu Bang; reunited as old friends, they had a drink, and after waking up from the wine, he learned from Liu Bang that Gao Yao had been taken to the official slave camp by a group of people.

Yi Yi Xiaochuan wanted to save Gao Yao immediately, but he fainted inexplicably.

After waking up, he found that he had already arrived in the labor force and was taken to build the Great Wall.

During the process of building the Great Wall, he was kidnapped by the Tu'an army.

Afterward, he became a prisoner of Tu'an. Yi Yi Xiaochuan did not say much about what he encountered in Tu'an, only stating directly that he met the love of his life in Tu'an, and the journey from Tu'an to Xianyang was also the happiest time of his life.

However, happiness was ultimately short-lived.

As he arrived in Xianyang and watched his beloved leave with his own eyes, he fell into a state of silence, drowning his sorrows in alcohol all day long.

Cui Wenzi stated that when he met Yi Yi Xiaochuan, the other party was in this drunken and muddled state.

He was also fond of wine.

And so, the two drunkards got together. Because they felt the wine in Xianyang was not strong enough, they joined forces to brew wine. In their spare time, Yi Yi Xiaochuan also practiced martial arts diligently, keeping his body in a state of exhaustion to numb himself.

Cui Wenzi talked all the way to the release of that Imperial Edict.

Upon learning that Imperial Concubine Yushu was seriously ill and on the verge of death, Yi Yi Xiaochuan came to him.

And so, there was this trip into the palace.

"So you mean, Yi Xiaochuan's new love is Imperial Concubine Yushu?"

Gao Yao had no culture, but he was not stupid; he quickly understood who Yi Yi Xiaochuan's new love was.

"How could it be her?"

Gao Yao was very shocked.

Imperial Concubine Yushu, he had heard of her; she was a princess from Tu'an sent for marriage, and she was the Emperor's concubine.

Even if Yi Yi Xiaochuan really found a new love, couldn't he find someone else? Why did he have to find Imperial Concubine Yushu?

One must know that this was an act of giving the Emperor a green hat; if the Emperor found out, he would die without a burial place.

And even if only a few of them knew, that would be fine.

Even if Gao Yao had some opinions about Yi Yi Xiaochuan, he would not deliberately spread this matter.

But he could not help the fact that there were others here.

Gao Yao, with a sense of panic, looked suddenly at Su Xuan, who was beside him.

Mr. Su was the Emperor's State Preceptor; Gao Yao was not sure if Su Xuan would tell the Emperor about this matter.

Especially since it was Su Xuan who had revealed Yi Yi Xiaochuan's new love earlier, and Lu Su also knew about it, proving that Su Xuan knew as well.

"Mr. Su, although Yi Xiaochuan did not act kindly and did some things wrong, he is my fellow villager after all, coming from the same place. I wonder if you could show mercy and not tell the Emperor about him and Imperial Concubine Yushu?"

"Don't worry, after I see him, I will scold him severely and persuade him to give up on Imperial Concubine Yushu."

"One is to give the Emperor an explanation, as he cannot do things that wrong the Emperor, and the other is to give Miss Lu an explanation."

It was somewhat difficult for Gao Yao; in a short time, he had actually come up with these words.

Su Xuan said indifferently, "I must say, Yi Yi Xiaochuan is lucky to have a friend like you."

Unfortunately, Yi Yi Xiaochuan was truly unworthy of being a person.

Su Xuan thought of the many things Yi Yi Xiaochuan had done in the original work.

Gao Yao was indirectly disabled because of him, yet he never blamed Yi Yi Xiaochuan; earlier, he had helped Yi Yi Xiaochuan in every way, but what happened? Yi Yi Xiaochuan, because Gao Yao got to know Hu Hai, wanted to break ties with Gao Yao.

In this regard, he appeared extremely aloof.

However, had he ever thought about Gao Yao's feelings?

For the Gao Yao of that time, besides flattering Hu Hai, there was simply no other path to choose.

If it weren't for Hu Hai, he would still be bullied in the Imperial Kitchen.

Yi Yi Xiaochuan, as a person, only saw the mistakes others made, but never saw how much suffering others had endured before making those mistakes.

Even, out of blind belief in so-called history, he only thought about flattering the great figures in history, but never thought that the other party might not be a good person.

That's right, he was talking about Liu Bang.

Yi Yi Xiaochuan never thought about whether Liu Bang, who could mix from a rogue to the Emperor Gaozu of Han in history, could be a kind person.

No, he never thought about it, because of his poor judgment in people, he did not know how many people he had harmed.

At first, he harmed Gao Yao, and later he harmed another sworn brother, Xiang Yu.

Perhaps at the last moment, he realized it, but realizing it at that time was actually a bit late.

It could be said that it was precisely because of Yi Yi Xiaochuan's weakness, because of his character, that many tragedies were brewed; he was the origin of all tragedies.

Gao Yao did not understand the many thoughts Su Xuan had.

He heard Su Xuan say again, "For your sake, I will not tell the Emperor about this for the time being!"

Of course, if the Emperor found out about this himself, then it could not be blamed on anyone.

Gao Yao said to Su Xuan, "Thank you, Mr. Su!"

A storm brought about by Yi Yi Xiaochuan was temporarily brought to an end.

After learning about Yi Yi Xiaochuan's experiences and encounters from Cui Wenzi, Gao Yao and Lu Su felt complicated.

At first, Gao Yao had intended to find Yi Yi Xiaochuan and ask him for an explanation.

However, upon learning that he was currently in Imperial Concubine Yushu's sleeping quarters, where the plague was rampant 44, Gao Yao ultimately suppressed these thoughts and prepared to wait until the plague ended before looking for Yi Yi Xiaochuan.

As for Lu Su, she pondered for a long time and finally made a decision.

"Mr. Su, I want to go and see Yi Xiaochuan!"

The night was deep, and Lu Su looked at Su Xuan, saying with a firm tone.

Su Xuan knew what she was thinking and said calmly, "I will take you there!"

Although Lu Su had been following him to save people during this time, Yushu's sleeping quarters were, after all, a place where the plague was rampant; ordinary people were not qualified to step into it, and if Lu Su wanted to go in, she could only let Su Xuan take her.

Of course, Yushu's sleeping quarters, this place where the plague was rampant, actually had some problems; it was something Su Xuan had deliberately left, and its purpose was to use this matter to fish, and in the end, he successfully lured the big fish, Cui Wenzi, into the palace. ===== CHAPTER 1038 =====
