Chapter 473 He Can't Turn Back
Chapter 473 He Can't Turn Back
Jiuchou withdrew his hand and stood back beside Shen Shuyi, but Chai Bin was a little confused.
Who?
Who would want to see him?
"Miss Shen is really well-connected. She was able to transport me out of the Dali Temple prison quietly." A ferocious smile appeared on Chai Bin's skinny face.
Shen Shuyi just looked at him indifferently and was not in a hurry to speak.
"Yeah, with him helping you, there's nothing you can't do." Chai Bin muttered to himself, his eyes full of death.
When he was poisoned by the 'Blue Sea and Blue Sky', he just wanted to die quickly.
But when the poison was really cured, he seemed to have no courage to die.
But shouldn't Chai Bin die in the hands of a woman? Even if he couldn't die on the battlefield, at the very least he should have died on the guillotine!
Or, he might be paraded through the streets in a prison van, and everyone would curse him.
After all, he shouldn't have died like this, at the hands of an unknown woman.
Shen Shuyi's eyes were cold, and he suddenly asked, "Master Chai looks down on women?"
Chai Bin came back to his senses and sneered: "A woman should stay at home and take care of her husband and children! Even if Miss Shen makes a big fuss, what can she gain?"
Shen Shuyi raised his eyebrows, his almond eyes cold: "Then Lord Chai betrayed his old master, betrayed his brothers who lived and died together, and betrayed countless strong men in Daqian. Did Lord Chai get what he wanted?"
Chai Bin was speechless for a moment.
What does he want?
Naturally, he would be granted a title of nobility and appointed as prime minister, shocking the world and his name would be recorded in history!
Naturally, he is covered in gold and jade, has tremendous power, and is extremely wealthy!
But now?
Did he get it?
He seemed to have gained something briefly, but would eventually lose it...
Shen Shuyi did not beat around the bush with him and said coldly: "I am doing a business with Lord Chai. You tell me all the details you know about the battle of Lushan. When the Chai family is destroyed one day, I can save your life for your family."
Shen Shuyi leaned forward slightly, looked directly into Chai Bin's bloodshot eyes, and spoke in a firm tone.
Chai Bin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter: “Ahahahahaha! Hahahahaha!!!”
"When will it be your turn as a woman to decide the life and death of my Chai family? This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous!"
Shen Shuyi didn't smile, but just looked at him calmly.
After Chai Bin had laughed enough, she slowly said, "Chai Bin, I will only give you this one chance."
Chai Bin's throat tightened and his voice became hoarse: Shen Shuyi, you are so arrogant!
Shen Shuyi said regretfully: "It seems that Master Chai doesn't believe me."
Chai Bin stared at Shen Shuyi: "Even if Miss Shen can overthrow the Chai family, you can't defeat the Third Prince. If the Chai family is destroyed, the Third Prince will definitely seek justice for our Chai family!"
"Xiao Heyu?" Shen Shuyi sneered, "He's already in trouble, and you still dare to expect him to seek justice for you?"
"Besides, do you Chai family deserve the word fairness?"
Shen Shuyi's voice was cold and stern, leaving Chai Bin speechless.
Seeing that he couldn't get any information out of him, Shen Shuyi lost his patience, stood up, and stared at Chai Bin coldly: "Chai Bin, there are so many paths in this world that you don't want to take, and you don't want to be a man who stands tall and upright. Instead, you choose to be a dog for Xiao Heyu. Do you think you're that happy?"
The contempt in Shen Shuyi's eyes deeply hurt Chai Bin, and he suddenly struggled violently.
"You are just a woman, what do you know? You are a weak woman who can't even lift a finger, what qualifications do you have to teach me a lesson!"
His eyes were bloodshot and he roared at Shen Shuyi.
At this moment, the door of the secret room was opened from the outside, and Jiang Li, wearing a mask, came in.
"If she doesn't have the qualifications, doesn't she know that I do?"
The man's voice was steady and clean, and upon closer listening, it seemed to be trembling.
Chai Bin subconsciously looked up and saw the man's slender fingers slowly taking off the mask on his face.
At that moment, his pupils constricted, as if he had seen a ghost, and he was in great fear.
"You...you...you are not dead!"
The moment he saw the face clearly, Chai Bin was struck by lightning.
Jiang Li!
“How come you’re not dead…How come you’re not dead!” Chai Bin struggled violently, and the chains on his body made loud noises.
Jiang Li drew his sword and cut the chains for him, approaching him step by step: "Why? My father treated you well, and the Chai family treated you even better! Why did you frame him!"
Jiang Li walked up to Chai Bin, grabbed his collar with both hands, his eyes were tearful and filled with heartbreaking pain.
His father was such a good man, he had saved Chai Zhi's life and taught Chai Bin a lot of Kung Fu...
Although their life in the frontier was hard, they were clearly happy and free.
"Is the power in the capital so tempting?"
"Does that mean your Chai family will betray you and point the gun at your own brothers?"
Jiang Li threw him against the wall, shaking all over.
Shen Shuyi sat back on the Eight Immortals Chair and looked at Chai Bin in silence.
Human nature cannot stand the test. Perhaps in many inadvertent moments, just a split second, people will make completely different choices.
Facing Jiang Li, Chai Bin was finally moved.
"You know... I can't change their decision..." After a long while, Chai Bin uttered a word.
He was very young at that time, and when he first learned of the decision, he found it hard to believe.
But what if he is the legitimate son of the Chai family?
No one will listen to him!
'boom! '
Jiang Li punched Chai Bin hard on the face and said angrily: "Have you forgotten the oath we swore together?"
"You've forgotten the days when we practiced archery, rode horses, killed enemies, and drank together, haven't you?"
Jiang Li's cheeks were tense. He grabbed Chai Bin's collar with one hand and punched him hard again and again.
This time, Chai Bin didn't hide.
He closed his eyes tightly and said self-deprecatingly: "So what? People always have to look forward!"
His father told him that everything would pass.
His mother told him that he would soon have a new woman, a woman who grew up with him in the frontier and was very ordinary.
His grandfather told him that as long as he had power, he would have more friends.
When he arrived in the capital, he saw indeed more prosperous streets and alleys, as well as a more treacherous court. He saw pearls and jade more exquisite than those in the frontier, as well as beauties of all kinds and with all kinds of charm.
He did have more friends and a master to whom he was willing to serve again.
He gradually became like them, seemed to have completely integrated into this place, and tasted the power. He could no longer remember the past.
Yancheng is a place full of wind and sand, and everything is barren and yellow. The days of hard training under the scorching sun were not beautiful at all. Being chased by the enemy every day and fleeing as if one's tail was bitten were not good memories at all.
Occasionally hunting wild game with Jiang Li and others and secretly drinking some liquor seemed to have become the most enjoyable memory in the boring life.
For some reason, those past events that he had been most disdainful and reluctant to recall since he came to Beijing, made him miss them the moment he saw Jiang Li today.
Perhaps, he actually missed those days a long time ago.
But there is one thing my father said that is right: people always have to move forward.
There was no way he could turn back.
