Chapter 338: Hypocrisy to the extreme
Her heart was filled with a sense of guilt and despicability, which made Pei Qingqing's breathing a little heavy when she closed her eyes and eyes.
Beigong Liu originally wanted to ask something, but when he saw Pei Qingqing's tired face, he wanted to ask, but finally swallowed back.
This has come to this, let's take one step at a time.
In fact, Beigong Liu's heart is not without care, although this medicine Lang is useless, and he is a sick seedling, but after all, he is the young owner of Yaowang Villa, Pei Qingqing wants to take him with him, what must be the reason for this?
Now I just hope that this medicine can be of some use......
Otherwise, if you are busy during this time, you won't be able to save Bai Zimo.
......
At the same time, the news of Nanyang's victory had been quickly transmitted back to Beijing, and Emperor Qiandi was overjoyed.
On this day, it was getting late, and Huo Xiao led the army on the way back to Beijing, estimating that it would take about ten days to arrive in Beijing.
At dusk, Huo Xiao ordered to find a place near the mountains and rivers to set up camp, and let the soldiers rest for one night before they would leave tomorrow.
The camp tent was quickly set up, and Huo Xiao sat in the camp tent, holding a letter from home in his hand and reading it again and again.
There is no way, his wife and daughter are not around, so he can only comfort his thoughts with a letter from home.
Thinking that he would soon be able to go home to see his wife and daughter, Huo Xiao even if he was an iron-blooded general, had a soft smile on his face at the moment.
The first battle of Nanyang, although he won, but also lost a lot of soldiers, fortunately there is a strategy to fight in the north, otherwise I am afraid that he is still entangled with the Liukou army.
"General..."At this time, a person walked in from outside the tent, brought some wine and food, and came to Huo Xiao with a smile, "General, the last general has prepared some wine and food, the general can eat some!"
The person who came was named Cao Yong, and he was the deputy general in Huo Xiao's army.
Huo Xiao glanced at Cao Yong, and then looked outside, "Have you set up the camp tent?"
He is the main general, so his camp tent is the first to be built.
The tents of the soldiers outside are also very important.
Huo Xiao won the hearts of the military, and a large part of the reason was because he cared about the soldiers under him.
Eat and live with the soldiers, and fight side by side.
"Don't worry, general, those little cubs are very good, the camp tent has been set up, the general hasn't eaten for a day, let's eat something first!" Cao Yong laughed, just from his tone, he could see that he had a good relationship with Huo Xiao.
is called a subordinate and a superior, but in fact they are all brothers who are born and die.
"Good. Huo Xiao smiled heroically and beckoned Cao Yong to say, "Come, you can also come over for a bite and have a drink with me!"
"Yes!" Cao Yong also responded very boldly.
Usually in private, they and Huo Xiao don't have to worry about so many courtesies, they are very casual.
Huo Xiao personally poured Cao Yong a full glass of wine, then filled himself with a glass, and said, "Nanyang won this time, Cao Yong, you have also worked hard, come! I salute you!"
"General, if you want to say that, it will torment me! It is the honor of the last general to be able to follow the general, and the general should be the first to take the lead in the victory of Nanyang this time! After returning to Beijing, His Majesty will definitely reward the general, and this glass of wine should be the last general's respect for the general!" It is not difficult to hear Cao Yong's gratitude and love for Huo Xiao between his words.
Huo Xiao smiled, "Okay, don't say kind words to me, you kid, drink!"
In fact, the first merit is not the first merit, and the reward is not re-rewarded, Huo Xiao does not attach much importance to it.
As a general, the Huo family has been loyal for generations, and as a general, it is his duty to go into battle to kill the enemy.
If you eat the king's luck, you should bear the king's worries.
Huo Xiao raised his head, and drank a glass of wine.
It's just that he didn't notice that Cao Yong's wine only made a look at his mouth and didn't drink it.
When Huo Xiao put down the wine glass, he saw that Cao Yong's wine hadn't been drunk, "Why don't you drink it?"
He and Cao Yong often drink together, why don't you drink today, this kid?
Cao Yong's face was a little complicated, tangled, hesitant, and there was a hint of unbearability, "I'm sorry general......"
Cao Yong put down the wine glass in his hand violently, and the wine in the cup spilled out, and his face was gloomy.
"You... What do you mean by ......"?
However, before Huo Xiao could ask a complete sentence, his eyes suddenly widened, and his heart ached.
Huo Xiao covered the pain in his heart, looked at Cao Yong in disbelief, and wanted to stand up, but fell back again, "You...... You're poisoning me?"
Cao Yong, actually poisoned him?
Why?
Huo Xiao couldn't believe it or didn't believe it, Cao Yong had always been his brother from birth to death, and he actually poisoned him?
"Why did you ...... "poison me?"
Huo Xiao wanted to ask, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he spit out a mouthful of blood, and the blood he spit out was all black.
"I ......" Cao Yong's face flashed a trace of unbearability, and he didn't know what to say?
More than that, there is nothing to say.
The poison was placed by him, and there is nothing to quibble about.
"Because you're hindering his future. ”
Cao Yong didn't answer Huo Xiao, and suddenly another voice answered Huo Xiao's question for Cao Yong.
The corners of Huo Xiao's mouth were full of black blood, and when he heard the voice, he looked dead in the direction of the camp door.
In the light of dusk, a slender figure walked in.
When Huo Xiao saw his face clearly, his eyes were suddenly full of surprise, "It's you?!"
"General Huo, it's been a long time. "The person who came was none other than Mu Xuanling.
"It's you......" Seeing Mu Xuanling, Huo Xiao suddenly understood, it was King Ling who bribed Cao Yong to poison him?
But as soon as Huo Xiao opened his mouth, he spit out a mouthful of black blood.
"What's wrong with General Huo? Could it be that he was seriously injured? He vomited blood, General Huo Da has made meritorious contributions to the country, so he has to take good care of his body. ”
Mu Xuanling's face at the moment can only be described in two words: hypocrisy.
It's hypocritical to the extreme.
How could Huo Xiao not understand that Mu Xuanling said that he was injured, but he was just looking for a good reason to kill him, right?
Do you want to cause a person who died of serious injuries instead of poisoning?
Huo Xiao is not stupid, Mu Xuanling suddenly appeared here, and he also bribed the deputy general next to him to poison him, it must have been premeditated!
Huo Xiao knew that he was afraid that he would be more auspicious today.
Mu Xuanling, at first glance, doesn't look like a posture to keep him alive.
Huo Xiao endured the pain in his heart, sat down on the chair in embarrassment, and stared at Mu Xuanling with a pair of majestic eyes, "Why......? What's in it for King Ling?"
Huo Xiao didn't understand, why did Mu Xuanling kill him, and what good would it do to Mu Xuanling if he killed him?
Even if he once rejected Mu Xuanling's wooing, he was still Tianfeng's courtier.
How could Huo Xiao not know that Mu Xuanling was in the dragon chair.
If Mu Xuanling has the ability to sit in that position in the future, his Huo family will naturally be loyal to him.
The Huo family's allegiance for generations is the person who sits on the throne, no matter who that person is.
Huo Xiao asked himself, he hadn't offended Mu Xuanling, why?
