Chapter 314 Good or Bad
Chapter 64
Just when Tie Hongyan asked Tie Jinjue "How could he be poisoned? Can the poison in the wine be transmitted to others?", Tie Jinjue told Tie Hongyan some of the situation he knew.
Tie Hongyan kept crying while listening and remained silent after listening.
After finishing the narration, Tie Jinjue felt that he had told her more than he had originally intended, so he said to Tie Hongyan: "Hongyan, you must not let anyone else know what your uncle told you, remember?"
"Remember. Don't worry, uncle, I will never tell anyone, just like I kept the secrets between us in the past." Tie Hongyan said after wiping the tears from his face.
"Swear another oath!" Tie Jinjue said.
Tie Hongyan first heard the word "poisonous oath" from Wu Xunsheng when she was seven years old. At that time, she didn't understand what "poisonous oath" meant. Wu Xunsheng gave her a vague explanation, but she still didn't understand it. Later, when she grew up, Tie Jinjue would ask her to swear a poisonous oath when he told her something that needed to be kept secret. Therefore, she already knew what it meant to swear a poisonous oath. In the past, when she swore an oath, she still needed Tie Jinjue to teach her, but later she could say it on her own without Tie Jinjue's guidance.
Tie Hongyan skillfully raised his right hand, pointed his three middle fingers to the sky, and said softly: "I, Tie Hongyan, swear this solemn oath today. I will never tell anyone about Master Fei's story that my uncle just told me! If you break this oath, I, Tie Hongyan, will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
Tie Jinjue asked: "Hongyan, your uncle asked you to swear an oath again, don't you think your uncle is troublesome?"
"No trouble. If our secret were to be known by outsiders, my uncle and I would both die miserably. Only after I swear a solemn oath can my uncle rest in peace." Under Tie Jinjue's teaching and training, Tie Hongyan has been able to understand the intentions of some of his actions.
"Hongyan is so sensible!" Tie Jinjue said.
Tie Hongyan had been in a low mood after hearing about Fei Cunyi. When she heard Tie Jinjue praising her for being sensible, she was not happy at all. She said, "Uncle, there is something I don't understand about what you just said." "What is it that you don't understand?" Tie Jinjue asked.
"You just said that your subordinate named Zhang Ji 'loves Fang Piaolan' and 'is trapped by love and turns to hate because of love', is that correct?"
"Yeah, that's what I said."
"He loves Fang Piaolan, why would he hurt her?" Tie Hongyan couldn't understand it.
"I already said it was 'love turns to hate'."
"Master Fei also loves Fang Piaolan, why would he sacrifice his life to save her?" Tie Hongyan said.
"You are still young, and I can't explain love matters to you clearly right now." Tie Jinjue patted Tie Hongyan's shoulder.
"What is love? Is it a good thing? Master Fei made me think that love is a good thing that can save people; Zhang Ji made me think that love is a bad thing that can kill people." Tie Hongyan murmured.
"Don't think too much. Ask when you grow up. Maybe by then, you will understand it yourself without asking." Tie Jinjue said.
Hearing the words "wait until you grow up", Tie Hongyan suddenly recalled that she had once asked Master Di why Huanying could grow on a tree. She thought: At that time, Master Di said, "There is a story behind this, I will tell you when you grow up." Could it be that the story behind it is also related to love?
