Chapter 279:

Liusheng and Jiusheng each brought a dozen Zuoling guards to divide into two roads, and Liusheng, who had better martial arts, climbed down from the gap where Li Chengxiu fell, and Jiusheng took people to go around from the south. Li Chengxiu and the big girl, plus a dozen or so Zuo Lingwei answered on it.

About an hour later, news came from below. The whistle was several long and short whistles from Jiusheng, and she told Li Chengxiu that she had found Shi Maitreya by a stream in the south facing the cliff. Even if Li Chengxiu rushed over there with people, sure enough, there was a stream under the cliff, and Shi Maitreya was really there.

Shi Maitreya's description has been sorted out by Jiusheng, but it still looks very embarrassing. Looking at him from afar, as well as Jiusheng's anxious appearance, Li Chengxiu's heart sank, probably Shi Maitreya was also dead.

"How?" Li Chengxiu rushed over and asked Jiusheng anxiously.

"Alive, but badly wounded." Jiusheng replied, so that Li Chengxiu's panicked heart stopped a little.

Looking down at Shi Maitreya, I saw that his face was pale, with a dagger stuck in his waist, and his chest was slightly undulating, and his breath was very weak. The dagger was not inserted in the vital place, but it was extremely deep, Jiusheng did not move, and Li Chengxiu did not dare to move.

"Let's go back to Luojiadianzi, we should still be able to find Qian Yong." Li Chengxiu said: "Quick, cut some branches and rattan to make a deputy stretcher." ”

For Lee Sung-so's decision, Jiusheng was a hundred in favor, while Zuo Lingwei ...... Now Zuo Lingwei has become a walking corpse, and the marionette in Li Chengxiu's hands, I'm afraid the only thing that can make them emotional is the threat to their lives.

The stretcher was quickly made, and Li Chengxiu asked Jiusheng to take Shi Maitreya back to Luojiadianzi first, and she decided to go forward to pick up Liusheng.

When he came down, Li Chengxiu made a mark at the opening, taking into account the dense vegetation on the cliff. Walking forward along the foot of the mountain, two quarters of an hour later, Li Chengxiu saw the red flag fluttering on the top of the cliff, but there was no trace of Liusheng.

"Whistle, whistle." Li Chengxiu instructed the big girl, and the big girl immediately blew a whistle of different lengths. It took about half an hour to get a response from Liusheng, and the big girl listened, "They are trapped halfway up the mountain." ”

"Ask them what's going on." Li Chengxiu said again, and the eldest girl immediately passed her question to Liusheng with a whistle, and then said: "Liusheng said that they found Sun Dingying halfway up the mountain, and asked if they would throw a dead person down, or bring a living down?" ”

Li Chengxiu's head was full of black lines, and he said speechlessly: "What's the use of throwing a dead one?" Looking at the top of the cliff, Li Chengxiu said, "Let them tie Sun Dingying to the rope, and we will go and pull them up." ”

The big girl told Li Chengxiu what he meant, and then walked back quickly with Li Chengxiu, returning to the gap from the mountain in the south. By the time Li Chengxiu reached that gap, there were already three or four Zuo Lingwei climbing up the rope and pulling the rope up with all their strength.

"Leave two at the bottom to help Liusheng, and the other Zuo Lingwei will come up." Given that these guys didn't run away, Lee Sung-so's face softened them a little.

After another quarter of an hour, a dozen or so Zuo Lingwei climbed up along the rope and pulled the rope up with everyone. After a period of hard work, Li Chengxiu finally saw the "hammock" at the end of the rope, and it was Sun Dingying lying on it.

After another wasted effort, the "hammock" was completely lifted, and the same half of Liusheng and the other two Zuo Lingwei also climbed up.

Sun Dingying's condition is much better than Shi Maitreya's, but there are many abrasions on his body, the most serious is a broken bone on his chest, looking at the scar, it seems that someone has broken it.

"The old slave thanked the princess for saving her life." Sun Dingying was quite knowledgeable, and as soon as they met, they bowed to Li Chengxiu.

"Don't thank you yet." Li Chengxiu said coldly: "I saved you now, but I promise to kill you again in the next moment." Sun Dingying was stunned when he heard this, his already pale face became more and more pale, and sweat was dripping from his forehead. Seeing this, Li Chengxiu couldn't help but ridicule: "What's wrong? Is it a thief? ”

Sun Dingying tugged at the corners of his mouth and said gloomily: "The old slave is just acting on orders, but in fact, he can't be sorry for the prince and his mother." ”

turned out to be really a "thief", Li Chengxiu's eyebrows jumped, just now she was just deceiving him, but she didn't expect to really deceive something.

"This is what he holds in his arms." Glancing at Sun Dingying, Liusheng handed Li Chengxiu something.

It was a palm-sized brocade box, a black lacquer box carved with dragons and phoenixes, and there was no lock on the box, nor was there a gap to complete it. This kind of box Li Chengxiu is very familiar with, it is a secret box used by the emperor to give a secret order below, which is to hollow out a whole section of ebony wood into a box, and take one end of it as a cover. Because the box and the lid are out of the same body, it is carefully matched with the texture after putting in the secret decree, and then sealed with a secret method, if you don't understand the person in the hand just say that it is just a beautiful piece of wood.

Wu Dan also used this direction to send letters to the people below, and Li Chengxiu helped him seal the secret box more than once, and how to open Li Chengxiu with this kind of secret box completely cleared.

However, Li Chengxiu did not want to open the box, she was not in a hurry.

"Go back to Luojiadianzi first." Li Chengxiu didn't bother with Sun Dingying, she threw the secret box to Da Order.

"Niangniang, the old slave has the emperor's order, and I ask the mother to let the old slave leave." Sun Dingying said: "Niangniang's life-saving grace, the old slave will definitely be rewarded in the future." ”

Glancing at Sun Dingying, Li Chengxiu said: "My father-in-law is so seriously injured, let's go to Luojiadianzi with the palace, Imperial Doctor Qian is there, let him heal your injury and you will not be too late to go on the road." ”

"Xie Niangniang's good intentions, it's just that the old slave's errand can't be delayed." Sun Dingying refused, and after speaking, he stretched out his hand to the big man without waiting for Li Chengxiu's approval: "And ask the girl to return the old slave's things to the old slave." ”

The good and bad glanced at Sun Dingying, but he didn't pay attention to it.

Sun Dingying was furious and shouted, "Bold, do you know what you are doing? ”

"It's noisy!" Li Chengxiu said in disgust, Sun Dingying immediately lowered his voice, evened out his breath vigorously to calm his mood, and then squeezed a smile with Li Chengxiu: "Miss Xu is really naughty, but, Niangniang, this matter is really not a joke, the old slave is really in a hurry." ”

"Who was kidding you?" Li Chengxiu sneered: "My people let you stab you half to death, I just let you go, how can I care about the people below in the future?" ”

Hearing Li Chengxiu's words, Sun Dingying's expression was panicked, but he quickly stabilized, with a touch of flattery and compromise just now, he said sternly to Li Chengxiu: "Niangniang, do you know what you are doing?" Li Chengxiu squinted at him and didn't say anything, he was even more angry, and his tone was more severe: "You are holding the old slave like this, do you know what this is called?" ”

"What's it called?" Li Chengxiu finally spoke and asked lightly.

"It's called a bully!" Sun Dingying shouted angrily: "This is bullying the king!" Li Chengxiu snorted and laughed a few times, and Sun Dingying finally tore his face: "In this way, don't blame the old slave for being polite!" After saying that, he pointed at Zuo Lingwei: "Let you Xiao Lang see me in the future!" ”

Zuo Lingwei looked at his nose and nose, and he was as immobile as a mountain.

Sun Dingying was furious and shouted: "This palace is ordered by His Majesty the Emperor, come, take down the abolished crown princess Li!" ”

Hearing Sun Dingying's words, Zuo Lingwei shrank his shoulders and retreated quickly, but he was far away from Li Chengxiu.

Seeing this, Sun Dingying was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, and he roared again: "Where is Jin Wuwei? ”

The only thing that answered Sun Dingying was the rustle of the leaves in the wind, Sun Dingying's face suddenly turned green, and he looked at Li Chengxiu and Zuo Lingwei in a daze, and then jumped to his feet like crazy and shouted: "Where is Jin Wuwei?" Where is Liu Benchang? Where is Chen Zihong? Where? Where? ”

"Alas!" Li Chengxiu stretched out his little thumb and vigorously took out his ears and eyes that were a little itchy by Sun Dingying's shouting, gently blew off the dirt that he had taken out, and then sighed softly: "Take my father-in-law to see where his 'are'." ”

"Yes!" Liusheng held back a smile, and with a wave of his hand, two Zuo Lingwei pushed Sun Dingying forward.

"What? Do? Sun Dingying was like a crow caught in the hands of a man, and she shouted more than once: "Crown Princess, what are you doing here?" You're rebelling! You're deceiving you! I want to tell the Emperor! I want to tell the Emperor! ”

It is estimated that Liusheng really thought Sun Dingying was arguing, and he used something to seal his mouth, and the world finally got quiet again.

"I used to look good at him, but why did he become like this in a blink of an eye?" Looking at Sun Dingying, who was still jumping and struggling by the two Zuo Lingwei, the big girl said with regret.

Glancing at the ebony secret box in the girl's hand, Li Chengxiu sighed: "The wall is down, everyone pushes it." ”

"The wall is down?" The big girl's eyes froze, and she blurted out, "Which wall has fallen?" ”

Li Chengxiu didn't answer the girl's words directly, but glanced at the ebony secret box again and said, "If my expectations are correct, this secret box must contain an edict abolishing my title as the crown princess." ”

"Huh?" When the big girl heard this, she immediately glared at the ebony secret box, as if the box had a lot of grudge against her.

Li Chengxiu rubbed his head and heart, and sighed: "The emperor is really acting like an antelope hanging horns, there is nowhere to do it!" It's hard to figure out everywhere. ”

After being stunned for a while, the big girl remembered it somewhat, and when she heard Li Chengxiu's words, she couldn't help but say: "What's the incomprehension, isn't it expected that they want to abolish you?" ”

"yes!" Li Chengxiu nodded and said, "Qian Yong, they told those past events, and it was expected that I was deposed, but why did they wait until now?" If in Luojiadianzi, in the midst of heavy siege, Erniu and Brother Chang are in their hands again, and they are used as containment, wouldn't it be easier to start? ”

Glancing at Li Chengxiu, the big girl said, "It's strange if they dare!" ”

"Huh?" Li Chengxiu looked at the big girl puzzled.

The big girl said, "You didn't see the way you looked last night!" It's just like the evil ghosts crawling out of the ground, mixed with evil energy, the emperor and empress have long been frightened by you. ”

Touching his chin, Li Chengxiu was contemplative: "I was so powerful last night?" ”

Big girl: "......"

Don't look at the big girl who behaves very relaxed, she admires Li Chengxiu's appearance very much, in fact, she is very worried in her heart, she feels that Li Chengxiu is a little different from before, it is different from before the martial arts were abolished, and it is not the same as before the abolished martial arts were restored, especially when she was stimulated, she was wrapped in a thick evil qi all over her body, as if the evil god had come to the world. Although Lee Sung-so behaved very logically during the whole process, and it was normal afterwards, the big girl was still a little worried.

After some explanations from the big girl, Li Chengxiu probably understood the emperor's behavior.

In view of what happened in that nameless valley, as well as Li Chengxiu's "rudeness" to the emperor along the way, it is estimated that the emperor has long had plans to depose Li Chengxiu. The old things that Qian Yong said yesterday undoubtedly gave the emperor a more suitable excuse. An unclean woman is not worthy of being a crown princess, and the emperor felt that this was a good reason, which could not only "punish" Li Chengxiu, but also not make Wudan too difficult. - The emperor now has to go north to save his "Immortal Avenue", and now that the smoke is everywhere, he also needs Wudan to preside over the overall situation for him in the eastern capital Luoyang.

If he is still fleeing for his life, the emperor will naturally continue to endure it, and maybe he will give Li Chengxiu all kinds of comfort. However, last night, someone really came to the rescue, and it was still Grandpa Xue who was "rehabilitated" by the emperor, so that the emperor no longer had to worry about his safety. As soon as his personal safety was lifted, the emperor wanted to pull out the thorn in Li Chengxiu's side, but Li Chengxiu was too "mighty" last night, so he was scared.

The emperor set off in a hurry this morning, the purpose of which was to get rid of Li Chengxiu, and then send a message to Li Chengxiu to announce the deposition of her title as crown princess.

Looking at the official road in front of her, both sides of the road were lush and green, Li Chengxiu's eyes narrowed, I am afraid that there are a lot of ambushes waiting for her in front, right?

……

When Sun Dingying saw his "Where He Is", the whole person was not good, and his already not very good face became more and more ugly, in addition to being paler than before, but also adding a layer of blue gray, if he wasn't still walking and panting, he was already dead!

Looking at Sun Dingying's appearance, Zuo Lingwei, who had always been like a marionette, suddenly recovered some of his spirit.

People are like this, when they encounter failure or pain, they will feel much better when they see someone worse than themselves. It is said that this has been verified by scientists, saying that when people encounter failure or pain, they have more desire to be verified, that is, I am not the only one who is unfortunate, as a way to comfort myself. Look, there's something worse than me, what am I worth? In this way, the person's embarrassment and embarrassment can be alleviated, and even a little pleasure can be obtained from secretly glancing that he is not the worse person.

Therefore, Zuo Lingwei's people are now "alive" again, but because the previous stimulation was too great, they became more and more awake to realize that Li Chengxiu was an irresistible existence. Therefore, they should have urged Li Chengxiu to catch up with the emperor's Luan, but instead they obeyed Li Chengxiu and went back.

Luo Qiuyun and Huaihua's graves had already been erected, and with a bang, Li Chengxiu held a piece of wood that had been split in half and inserted it vigorously in front of Luo Qiuyun's grave, sprinkled two handfuls of soil on the grave, and then quietly looked at the wet grave.

Half an hour later, the heads of fifty battered Kim Wuwei were neatly laid out in front of the two graves, and their bodies were scattered all around, and Li Chengxiu ordered that they should not be buried.

From beginning to end, Li Chengxiu did not explain to Sun Dingying why she tortured and killed these fifty Jin Wuwei, nor did she explain to him the identities of the two people buried under the grave, but insisted that he could not take his eyes off for a moment, starting from digging the grave, and then asking Zuo Lingwei to cut off Jin Wuwei's head and then dismember. During this period, Sun Dingying vomited several times and fell down several times, but Li Chengxiu did not pity him at all, and ordered the two Zuo Lingwei to hold him up, pull his face, open his eyelids, and keep watching.

Because he was so angry at the time, Li Chengxiu didn't think to ask Jin Wuwei about insulting Luo Qiuyun, let alone whether it had anything to do with Sun Dingying. In Li Chengxiu's view, these Jin Wuwei are Sun Dingying's subordinates, and Sun Dingying should bear the sins they committed.

In Li Chengxiu's heart, Sun Dingying has already delineated the result, and one hundred and eighty kinds of torture and killing methods have been rolled countless times in Li Chengxiu's heart, and she has not yet figured out which one to choose. Or maybe let him try everything?

Sometimes, in a short moment, Li Chengxiu will also feel cruel and unbearable, but when she thinks of the tragic death of Luo Qiuyun and Huaihua, she only has countless "not enough" ringing in her ears.

Lee Sung-so didn't notice anything unusual about herself, as the big girl felt, she always knew exactly what she was going to do.

Now, Li Chengxiu told himself to bring Sun Dingying back to Luodianzi and take out more secrets of the emperor from his mouth. Then, let Qian Yong save Shi Maitreya, she also had a lot of questions to ask him.

The obvious danger made Li Chengxiu have to be careful, she did not rush back to Luojiadianzi, she first found a hidden place near Luojiadianzi, and then sent Liusheng to bring a few Zuo Lingwei to investigate the situation.

What made Li Chengxiu feel happy was that Jiusheng had a heart-to-heart connection with her, and she did not rush back to Luojiadianzi, but hid Shi Maitreya and went back to Luojiadianzi alone. That's right, Jiusheng is the Luojiadianzi who returned alone, and there is no one who handed over Shi Maitreya to Zuo Lingwei...... She felt that Zuo Lingwei, who was brutally suppressed by Li Chengxiu, could be driven, but she could not be trusted, so when she returned to the vicinity of Luojiadianzi and found a hiding place, she killed all Zuo Lingwei who came back with her.

When he learned the details, Li Chengxiu was a little stunned, looking at Jiusheng's face that had not changed much, but he could no longer see the innocent and cute appearance at the beginning. Everyone is changing, becoming unrecognizable, becoming horrible and scary, but who is to blame for this?

"Have you ever regretted it?" Looking at the six lives who were pale with fright by Jiusheng Xingzhi, Li Chengxiu asked softly.

Liusheng has already confessed, and it was Liusheng who reported to Master Li at the beginning. Liusheng said that she just wanted to change her fate, but Li Chengxiu knew that she not only wanted to change her fate as a slave and a maid, but more importantly, she wanted to become a phoenix flying in the nine heavens. Because she saw everything she did in the East Palace, such as bullying her for "having no heart", dealing with palace affairs with arrogance many times, and flattering Wudan countless times, as well as communicating with people inside and outside to spread the news in the East Palace to outsiders......

Hearing Li Chengxiu's question, Liusheng's face turned pale again, his eyes turned red in an instant, and he spit out three words in a low voice: "I'm sorry." ”

Sighing softly, Li Chengxiu muttered: "I can understand your feelings, who wants to be a slave?" Hearing this, Liusheng was shocked, and looked at Li Chengxiu with tears in his eyes, his expression indescribably complicated. Li Chengxiu felt even more sad when he saw it, and said: "It's just that you are wrong, you were born in the Li family, you grew up in the Li family, and even your father was brought up by my father since childhood...... From the moment we met, my father taught me to call your father 'brother', so why did he treat you as outsiders? Liusheng's eyes flashed again, and Li Chengxiu continued: "My family is just me, how difficult is it to support such a big family business?" If I stay at home and recruit a son-in-law, you will eventually recruit a son-in-law and marry him. According to it, it must be a side branch of my own room, although it is not so prominent, but it is also a little rich, is it not better than surviving on the knife like today? ”

"It's my lard that blinds my heart." Liusheng lowered his head and said sadly.

"But ......" Li Chengxiu's words turned around, and said: "The whole thing is more complicated than we imagined, whether it is the legendary treasure or our family wealth, Master Li is bound to get it, so even if you are not smart, my family may not be able to have a stable life." What's more, it turns out that Master Li is not the only one staring at his father. ”

Hearing Li Chengxiu say this, Jiusheng suddenly felt a lot better, and looked at Li Chengxiu with firm eyes: "I will never be stupid again in the future, I am a member of the Li family in life, and a ghost of the Li family in death!" ”

Li Chengxiu was shocked: "Do you want to say it so scary?" ”

Liusheng smiled wryly, revealing a rare shyness.

"Okay, enough gossip, let's get down to business!" Li Chengxiu stood up, patted his buttocks and moved his muscles, and ordered: "Go and invite Grandpa Sun over, I have to ask him something." ”

"Yes." Liusheng hurriedly went to bring Sun Dingying over.

"Grandpa Sun, please take a seat." Li Chengxiu said politely to Sun Dingying.

Frightened by the more than 50 corpses that were tortured and killed, Sun Dingying had long since lost his original majesty, following Liusheng with his head drooping, leaning his body, hearing Li Chengxiu's voice, he was shocked, and then looked around for a seat......

"Sit here!" Liusheng dragged Sun Dingying's collar to the stool in front of him, and staggered Sun Dingying.

"Be polite to Grandpa Sun." Li Chengxiu said with a smile, revealing her beautiful white teeth.

The teeth that were as smooth and white as jade were neat and tidy without the slightest flaw, but Sun Dingying only felt creepy and frightened when he saw it.

"What do you command?" Sun Dingying asked calmly.
