Chapter 1: 1

 The autumn rain in September is slightly cold, and the sound of the rain coming from the courtyard is mixed with the sound of chanting Buddha fell into the ears, making Chu Yu a little confused and sleepy.

  She had a chill on her body, and her knees hurt like pins and needles, as if she had been kneeling for a long time. Outside was the familiar and distant sound of noise.

    “She will be married soon, kneeling like this, what if she breaks her knees?

    “I can’t hear you say that these things are unreasonable, let me ask her now if she has taken half a step out of the General’s House? If not , what’s the punishment?

    “Now that you have beaten and scolded her, what exactly do you want?” The woman’s voice is tinged with tears: “Do you have to force Yu to die before you will stop?

    Who is it?

    Chu Yu’s thoughts were a bit scattered , she raised her head, in front of her was a compassionate Goddess of Mercy, incense draped around, so that the Bodhisattva’s face was a little blurry.

    This jade statue of the Bodhisattva made Chu Yu’s heart a little surprised, because this Bodhisattva statue was buried when her grandmother died.

    And her grandmother’s death has been nearly ten years.

    If the jade statue of the Bodhisattva surprised her, after the gradual return of her sanity, she heard the voice outside, Chu Yu felt more surprised.

    That voice is clearly her mother’s who passed away four years ago!

    Where is this?

    She was surprised and gradually remembered the last moment before her delirium.

    It was supposed to be winter, and she was lying under a heavy blanket, surrounded by black smoke from the burning of a poor quality charcoal stove.

    Someone rolled in the curtain and brought a child less than eight years old. She was dressed in a long dress made of aqua-blue marsh brocade with a feathered crane cloak, and round pearl earrings dangled from her ears, gently rising and falling with her movements. She was nearly thirty years old, but still carried the unique innocence and brightness of a young girl, very different from that of her lying in the hospital bed.

    She and the woman in front of her were born at the same time, but the person in front of her still looked like the beginning, but she already looked like the vicissitudes of old age. Her hands were rough and full of scars, her face was full of fine lines due to long-term sorrow, a pair of her eyes were dead and desperate, not the same as the general’s young lady. 

    The woman came forward, respectfully bowing to her, as she had done in the general’s house: “Sister.”

    Chu Yu had no strength, she sluggishly moved her gaze to the child next to the woman, quietly looking at him.

    The child sees Chu Yu, not the slightest bit close, but took a step back, quite a bit scared.

    Chu Yu’s breathing was a little late, and the woman noticed that her emotions were fluctuating and she pushed the child and said to the child: “Yan Qing, call the lady.”

    The child came forward and respectfully called out, “First Lady.

    Chu Yu’s pupils suddenly shrink sharply.

    First Lady? What First Lady? She was clearly his mother! Clearly she was the one who gave birth to him in October!

    “Chu Jin ……” Chu Yu trembled, she wanted to curse out of her mouth, but when she touched her sister’s calm appearance, she suddenly realized.

    Verbal abuse din’t work.

    At this moment, she had long lost the sword in her hand and the sword in her heart, she wanted this child to call out to her mother, need to be in front of this sister Xu Ken.

    She looked at Chu Jin pleadingly, Chu Jin understood what she meant , but she smiled, pretending not to know, she went ahead and tucked her quilt and said gently: “Chu Sheng will come later, my sister doesn’t need to worry about it.”

    Chu Yu knew that Chu Jin would not let her hear Gu Yanqing’s mother, she grabbed  her and starred at her with a deadly gaze.

    Chu Jin quietly looked at her, and after a long time, slowly smiled.

    She waved her hand and had someone send Gu Yanqing down, then looked down at Chu Yu’s eyes.

    “My sister doesn’t seem to be able to do it.”

    Chu Yu couldn’t speak, Chu Jin was telling the truth.

    She couldn’t , her body had failed long ago, and she had pleaded with Gu Chusheng many times, wanting to go back to Huajing, wanting to see her father – the only man who had been good to her in her life.

    However, Gu Chusheng rejected all her requests, and now that she was dying soon, Gu Chusheng finally returned to Qianyang and said he will take her back to Huajing.

    But she couldn’t go back, she is destined to die in this foreign land.

    Chu Jin looked at her, her expression slowly cold.

    “Hate?”

    She spoke plainly, and Chu Yu gave a reply by staring at her with her eyes.

How can you not hate?

    She was a proud child of heaven, but she has fallen step by step to today’s situation. How can you not hate?

    “But, why do you hate me?” Chu Jin spoke gently, “Have I ever wronged you, sister?”

    The words made Chu Yu freeze. Chu Jin lifted her hand, as when she was young, and tenderly covered Chu Yu’s hand.

    “Every path is chosen by my sister. Ah Jin has always listened to her sister, hasn’t she?”

    “It was my sister who wanted to elope and marry Gu Chusheng, and Ah Jin helped her.”

    “It was my sister who wanted to earn military honors for Gu Chusheng to go to battle and lose her body, and it had nothing to do with others.”

    “It was my sister’s wishful thinking to marry Gu Chusheng, no one forced her, didn’t she?”

    Yes, it was she who wanted to marry Gu Chusheng.

    Back then, Gu Chusheng and Chu Jin were engaged in a marriage, but she fell in love with Gu Chusheng. At that time, the Gu family was in trouble, and Gu Chusheng was implicated and relegated to the border. Chu Jin cried to her and complained that she was afraid of going to the border to suffer, she saw that her sister had no intention of marrying Gu Chusheng, so she asked herself to marry Gu Chusheng, and Chu Jin took her place and married Wei Jun, the son of the Marquis of Zhenguo.

    At that time, everyone thought she was crazy, exchanging a good family affair for a disgraced boy who no one dared to touch. The father, who loved her, naturally would not allow it, and Gu Chusheng had no intention of agreeing to her either.

    No one supported her in this relationship, it was she herself who tried to follow Gu Chusheng to Qianyang by all means, Gu Chusheng was moved by her friendship and thankful for her unfailing support in times of crisis, so he married her.

    She stayed with him at the border and spent the most difficult six years, giving birth to his child. And he rose through the ranks, returned to Huajing, all the way to the official cabinet chief minister.

    If that was all, it would be a good story.

    But the problem is that Gu Chusheng always had Chu Jin in his heart, and the Marquis of Zhen Guo, whom Chu Jin married instead of her, was killed in battle when she first married, leaving only a 14-year-old to support the high family. At that time Chu Jin was unwilling to guard the widow for Wei Jiao, so she got a letter of resignation from the Wei family and restored celibacy.

    When Gu Chusheng met Chu Jin, the two of them rekindled their old love and reconnected, and this time Chu Yu could not bear it.

    After Chu Jin entered the house, she made a big fuss. She lost her temper out of jealousy and wore down Gu Chusheng’s love little by little, and was finally sent to Qianyang by Gu Chusheng in the name of serving his mother.

    She stayed in Qianyang for six years until her death, a full count of twelve years with Gu Chusheng.

    Chu Jin asked yes.

    Why should she hate?

    Gu Chusheng did not want her, it was clear back then, she was the one who asked for it.

    Gu Chusheng wanted Chu Jin, she was the one who forced the two of them to separate on the basis that she had sacrificed herself.

    They may be at fault, but the fault lies in the fact that she, Chu Yu, should not have been obsessed and should not have liked the person who did not like her.

    The more the wind and snow grew, the more the man’s hurried and steady steps came from outside. He has always been so, happy and angry, you can not see what he is thinking in the heart.

    A few moments later, the man opened the curtain and came in.

    He was wearing a purple embroidered python official uniform, wearing a golden crown, he looked much thinner, the usual handsome eyebrows with a few harsh taste.

    He stood in the doorway, stopping his steps, the wind and snow poured in, blowing Chu Yu a mouthful of blood smothered in her chest.

    She suddenly found that twelve years, no matter how deep the love and friendship, seems to have been put down.

    She looked at this man and found herself long out of love, her love has long since worn away in time, just can’t let go of the obsession.

    She is not in love with him.

    Having figured this out, she suddenly regretted these twelve years so much.

    Twelve years ago she shouldn’t have taken that step, shouldn’t have chased this thin lover to another country, shouldn’t have thought she could cover this cold stone with her warm heart.

    She slowly smiled away, as if she was still twelve years ago, she was still the first daughter of the General’s valiant family, holding a spear and looking proud.

    “Gu Chusheng,” she gasped, and spoke softly, “if you have to be reborn, may you be able to be with Jun, and there will be no entanglement!” ”

    Gu Chusheng’s pupils suddenly shrank sharply, Chu Yu finished this sentence, a mouthful of blood spurted out sharply, Chu Jin screamed out in shock, Gu Chusheng hurriedly went forward and took the person into his arms.

    His hands trembled slightly and he hoarsely said: “A Yu ……”

    If you have to regenerate ……

    Chu Yu’s final wish echoed in her mind before she died, and she suddenly understood something. With Great ecstasy pouring into her heart, she stood up abruptly.

    Old Lady Chu, who was chanting next to her, was startled by her, and seeing her stumble and hold the door open, she rushed to the main door and stared at the arguing Great General Chu and his wife.

    Chu’s wife Xie Yun was being supported by Chu Jin, arguing with Chu Jianchang, who was on the verge of rage, controlling his emotions and saying: “What kind of family is the Marquis of Zhen Guo’s house, allowing you to marry whoever you want? Gu Chusheng that kind of weak scholar, and Wei Shi Zi have and comparable? Not to mention the Wei son, even the Wei family’s only 14-year-old Wei Qilang, are better than Gu Chusheng! Even without this relationship, I will never let my daughter marry him!”

    “I don’t care what you want Ayu to do, All I know is that she is still kneeling inside after being beaten by you!”

    Xie Yun’s eyes were red: “This is my daughter, I don’t care about the others, I want her to be safe and sound, if something happens to her on her knees today, can you return my daughter to me?”

    “She has been learning martial arts since she was young, you underestimate her.” Chu Jianchang frowned: “She is thick-skinned.”

    “Chu Jianchang!”

    Xie Yun raised her voice: “Do you still remember that she is only a daughter!”

    “That’s why I’m not on the military stick.”

    Chu Jianchang blurted out, Xie Yun was so angry that she raised her hand, her whole face turned red, and was about to swing the slap down when she heard Chu Yu’s urgent and joyful cry, “Father, Mother!”

    That voice was not like usual, it contained too much. It was as if a traveler had traveled thousands of miles and experienced the vicissitudes of life.

    The two people faintly froze, turned their heads, they saw Chu Yu rush over and jumped into Chu Jianchang’s arms.

    “Father ……”

    The warmth came suddenly, Chu Yu almost cried out in pain.

    Still alive, everyone is still alive. Everything has not happened yet, her life is completely okay, to start all over.
