A cruel slap slapped Tang Xuexu's face.

knocked Tang Xuexuan to the ground in an instant, but the person who did it didn't even look at her, he hugged He Yueying and walked straight forward.

"Your Majesty, ...... these people?"

General Cao, who had seen this scene, opened his mouth tremblingly.

He Rong continued to walk as if he hadn't heard it, and when he walked five steps away, he heard his voice faintly coming: "All the people present today have been sentenced, and those who have been tortured in less than a thousand knives have made them breathe, and all those who have been tortured will be punished together." ”

There is no temperature in the voice, but it is a punishment that makes people only shiver.

With just one sentence, the soldiers who had bullied He Yueying, who had just known his identity, were weak and collapsed directly to the ground, and their leader, Lieutenant General, fainted directly at this time.

General Cao looked at He Rong's straight back and nodded: "Yes." ”

*******

"Mother, it's cold on the ground. ”

I don't know how long it took, He Rong left, and General Cao ordered all the subordinates of the lieutenant general and the two palace maids brought by Tang Xuexu's side to be punished.

Today, not only those involved in this event, but also bystanders have not escaped the doom.

The only one left is Tang Xuexu.

When everything was arranged, General Cao walked to Tang Xuexu, who had been slumped on the ground.

Her palace maid was also dragged down to be tortured, and there was no one around to serve her, and General Cao was surrounded by soldiers, men, so naturally no one dared to step forward to pull this golden and precious queen mother.

So I waited until General Cao was done before I came over to ask.

But Tang Xuexu turned a deaf ear to General Cao's words.

She raised her eyes and looked at the direction of He Rong's departure in a daze, although there was no longer a shadow of He Rong, but she still muttered: "San Lang, you actually beat me for a slut who killed our children! He Rong! How can you do this! It's all these sluts! I want revenge! I want Chu Yunsheng to die a bad death! I want to make her fate a hundred times worse than He Yueying!"

The more she said, the more bloodthirsty and poignant Tang Xuexu's eyes became, her cheeks were aching faintly, at this time, even if she didn't raise her hand to touch it, she could feel that it was obviously swollen, He Rong's slap was hard enough, more ruthless and heavier than the two times she hit He Yueying before.

It was the first time he had beaten her, and it was also the first time she had seen the killing intent in his eyes.

Although it was only a short moment, Tang Xuexu was sure that she was not mistaken!

He actually beat her for the woman who killed their child!

Thinking of this, the coldness in Tang Xuexu's eyes became more and more obvious, and she also transferred all these hatreds to the other remaining enemy.

Chu Yunsheng.

She uttered those three words almost through gritted teeth.

When General Cao on the side saw it, he couldn't help but shudder.

He didn't like Tang Xuexu originally, but when he saw this scene today, he was even more disgusted with this vicious woman, the reminder just now was just out of duty, and seeing that her mind was still on the matter just now, and she didn't mean to get up, General Cao also stood aside and gave two orders to his subordinates, asking them to take good care of the queen's mother, and then he didn't care about Tang Xuexu, and he stepped up his steps to chase He Rong.

After all, He Rongyi's abnormal expression just now was also extremely surprised in General Cao's eyes.

He never knew that His Majesty had this side.

He had been by He Rong's side for decades, and it was the first time he had seen His Majesty with such a look.

Before that, he also thought that He Yueying was just a chess piece for He Rong, who could be discarded at will, but until today, he believed that some people's love may not be shown on their faces, but it is not less than ordinary people.

than how to accommodate.

Thinking of this, General Cao became more and more worried, after all, the King Zhao he had just seen was too terrifying, although he didn't say a word, but because of this, it became more and more unpredictable, and the coldness exuded from his body was enough to freeze people to death.

So, he stepped up his pace and caught up.

What he didn't know was that He Rong was not angry at this time.

His anger had already been left after the slap on Tang Xuexu and the order to cut those people up, and now it was guilt that occupied his mind.

At this time, the person he was holding in his arms was none other than his sister.

Although they were not born to the same mother, this sister has always been the most considerate of him.

It is not so much that he has been protecting her over the years, but that she is the only person who has given him warmth in this huge Zhao Palace, except for his mother.

And this man is no longer there.

Thinking of this, He Rong's heart shook.

In the past, he only felt that he was a cold-blooded and ruthless person, and he could use her, even if it was his own sister, because he couldn't tolerate the slightest soft-heartedness, let alone any weakness.

Therefore, even if he couldn't bear it every time, even if he hesitated when making every decision that was unfavorable to her, his reason polished his heart like ice again and again.

Unbreakable and cold.

That's why I used her again and again to hurt her.

However, he never thought of endangering her life.

Even if he was using her to send her to defend the country and relatives, he also sent the most trusted General Cao around him to protect him all the way, and Tang Duyun's secret assassination was unexpected.

And he, the reason why he came to Weiguo so quickly, one is because the time is ripe to seize Weiguo, and the other reason is also because Tang Duyun is in Weiguo, he is afraid that Tang Duyun will hurt her again, he wants to settle the matter of Weiguo as soon as possible and make her safe, as for what he said to her, to send her to King Xiao He, it was just to test her, at that time he already suspected that she was on Chu Yunsheng's side, he said that, but he wanted them to jump into the trap he had arranged.

It's just that he hasn't had time to explain all this to her.

And that sentence, when the world is calm, he will not let anyone in the world dare to bully her for half a point, it is not a joke, nor is it a high-sounding reason to soothe her emotions.

It's what he really says.

It's just that in front of her, who has been hurt again and again by him, he thinks it is a lie, a lie, a hypocrisy.

That day, at the gate of King Wei's Palace, when he saw her threatening Tang Xuexu in order to save Chu Yunsheng, although he was angry on the surface, he didn't blame her at all in his heart.

After all, he let her down so much, she hated her, even if she wanted to kill him, it was reasonable.

At that time, although he instructed He Yue to shoot her back, he didn't really want to hurt her.

After all, that's his sister.

He never forgot that.

As a member of the royal family, he was born with thin family affection, brothers are assassins, they fight openly and secretly for the throne, and between fathers and sons they are calculating, speculating, and secretly competing for power.

She is the only one who has been by his side from beginning to end, and she is pure, without the slightest impurity.

She was the only light and light in his cold, dark life.

And now, the last and only glimmer of light and brightness has disappeared from his hands.

He Rong subconsciously hugged He Yueying.

A line of clear tears crossed her cheeks, and finally dripped onto He Yueying's bloody cheeks.

He Rong lowered his head and raised his hand to wipe it off He Yueying, but when his fingertips touched her cold cheeks, his heart seemed to be frozen at this moment.

She's dead.

She's dead!

This thought resurfaced in He Rong's mind, but he was like a fool and couldn't accept these three words.

I still remember that year, she was six years old and he was ten years old.

That day, he once again teased and locked him in an abandoned cold palace.

For him, a child who is not favored and has no mother, no one will know even if he dies there.

It was winter, and it had just snowed in the palace, and the windows in the cold palace were broken, but the door was unbreakable, and he couldn't break it with his small body.

After all, he was still a prince, so his clothes were not thin, but he was locked up in the abandoned cold palace for two days and two nights, but no one came to look for him, it was cold and hungry, the cold wind was howling outside, he curled up into a small ball and leaned against the door, and the hope in his heart turned into despair little by little with the passage of time.

Just when he thought that he would freeze to death and no one would know about it, a milky sound suddenly came from outside the door.

"Brother Rong, Brother Rong, are you in there?"

The moment he heard the voice, He Rong, who had fallen into the boundless darkness, instantly regained his senses, he opened the crack in the door, and saw the delicate little man standing outside the door through the gap.

At that time, she was only six years old, but she was already very lovely, especially those eyes, which were bright and bright, and they were a little similar to his mother.

At that time, He Rong knew that every favored concubine in the palace had one thing in common, they were more or less like the woman in the picture scroll that he regarded as a treasure.

And the mother concubine of the two of them is the most similar in appearance among all the concubines in the palace of King Zhao.

is different from him, a prince who is not favored without a mother, she is the only princess in this palace, and her mother is being favored at that time, so she naturally eats and wears better than others.

That day, she was wearing a red bronzing jacket with rabbit fur and combing two small braids, but the hair and jacket were a little messy, and she looked like she hadn't been groomed for a few days, and even so, the red was like a fire, which gradually warmed his cold heart.

seemed to feel his gaze in the crack of the door, and before he could answer, she had already walked happily towards him: "Brother Rong, Brother Rong, are you inside?"

By the end, her voice had a bit of a cry.

He Rong hurriedly nodded and said, "I'm here." ”

As soon as He Yueying heard his voice, she immediately stopped crying, she suddenly threw herself on the side of the door, and said in a milky voice: "I knew I could find it! Brother Rong! Brother Rong, you wait for me, I'll find someone to rescue you!"

After trying to push the door to no avail, she nodded to He Rong, and then walked out directly on her short legs.

After a short time, she brought the nurse in her palace to open the door for him.

Later, he learned from the mouths of those palace eunuchs that when she heard the eunuchs privately say that he was locked up by He Ming, she kept crying and making trouble to find him, those palace people naturally knew what the prince meant, where did they dare to look for it, and saw that those palace people were unmoved, and her mother only accompanied her father out of the palace two days ago to hunt, and she would not come back for ten days, she couldn't think of any other way, so she started from the palace closest to his bedroom, small steps, step by step, one by one, from the palace where he lived to find the place where he was detained by He Ming, she took two days。

For the past two days, he was cold and hungry in the cold palace, and she had not eaten a bite of food outside.

Before that, in He Rong's impression, she was just a little princess who was pampered by her father and her mother, carefree, although she was very good to him, but she was also affectionate to several other princes, she was like a piece of paper that was not stained with dust, clean and pure, and he was not in the same world as her, so every time she came to his palace to play with him, he found a reason to prevaricate casually, he had never treated such a sister sincerely, however, he didn't expect that she would treat him so sincerely.

Moreover, in her heart, he is more important than the other royal brothers.

It was also since that time that He Rong's heart began to store a trace of warmth.

……

Scenes from the past came to his mind in an instant, and He Rong's temples jumped a few times, and these memories that he was about to forget suddenly appeared in his mind at this time.

No matter how cold and ruthless he is, when he faces such a pure and sincere "Brother Rong" again, his heart still has no power to parry.

It's just that over the years, he has been working step by step, calculating everywhere, thinking in his heart, all he has in his mind is how to obtain the power of Zhao State and how to swallow these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, so he gradually forgot these pictures like self-hypnosis.

Forgotten that he could see her as a pawn to use.

But he completely forgot that if he hadn't had the warmth and vitality given to him by this chess piece, he wouldn't be where he is today.

However, he forgot and forgot, but he never thought that today, after she went, the scenes of the past appeared in his mind.

It was as if she was punishing him.

"A-Ying, I'm sorry. ”

He Rong trembled his lips and spoke, at that time, the guilt in his eyes was unobstructed, the person who had always been as hard as iron looked extremely fragile and helpless at this time, he held her corpse and stood in place stunned.

"If there is an afterlife, I will definitely be a good brother and not hurt you in the slightest. ”

His voice echoed in the cold, bleak autumn wind.

However, she will never know his mind.
