Chapter 84

There is a bronze tripod in the main tent of Yan Ying, and the hot water in it is boiling, and bursts of water vapor are emitted. A few imperial doctors were busy and were steaming poison for Cangluan.

Cangluan was haggard on the bed shirtless, and the sweat that steamed out was pale green, which was the poison of Himegrass. He suffered a lot from drinking that cup of poisonous wine, and the symptoms only improved slightly after coughing up poisonous blood, but now his body is too weak, Yin Tang is black, his eyes are red and swollen, and even drinking water is a problem. He originally thought that Ji Cao was just a small poison, and he was forced to drink the whole cup without fear because of his physique, which would make him suffer before he knew the benefits, and it was harder than making him suffer a thousand cuts.

His qi was weak and weak, and he asked the imperial doctor, "Can I be cured?" ”

While the imperial doctor was busy, he replied: "Your Majesty is no longer in danger of life, but it takes a long time to eliminate the poison in your body, as little as ten days and a half months, and at most a year and a half. ”

Cangluan couldn't wait any longer: "Serve me again and drink a bowl of soup and medicine." ”

The imperial doctor hesitated: "It's a medicine that is three points poisonous, Your Majesty just drank a bowl just now, and this will be bad for your body to drink." ”

"Less nonsense, bring medicine."

He can't take care of too much, he needs to recover immediately so that he can go back to deal with Jin Li. If there is a fish on the northern wing's side who is not interesting, he will be beaten to the ground. Listening to the faint sound of fighting in the distance and the frequent good news from the spies, Cangluan was finally able to let out a bad breath: Yu Youyu, so that you dare to smear me!

The spies came in again and reported: "Your Majesty, the king of the north has been arrested and detained outside the account." ”

"Hmph," Cang Luan sneered, the fish falling faster than he expected. "Someone, help me get up and dress, and then bring him in."

Youyu's hands and feet were wrapped in iron shackles, and he was taken in by the soldiers, who snatched the gold bracelet from Youyu's wrist and presented it to Cangluan.

Cang Luan played with the bracelet symbolizing royal power for a while, and then threw it aside disdainfully. Although the bracelet is exquisite, he is not used to seeing it, and there are many such gold ornaments.

The soldier kicked on the wrist of the fish's legs, and said fiercely: "Guilty minister, don't kneel down when you see the emperor!" ”

Youyu stood firm, not kicked by the soldiers, and said angrily: "I'm not wrong, why do you want to kneel." ”

Cangluan waved his hand, and all of them retreated.

Youyu spoke first: "I surrender, you quickly retreat." ”

He shook his head and laughed, feeling that it was ridiculous: "Do you think I have traveled thousands of miles to bring troops here to withdraw from the army?" ”

There used to be a fish in his eyes as just a coward with no ambitions, but now there are fish who say the opposite, and they say that they will descend, whether they are smart or stupid, and this open-mindedness makes him look at it differently. He admired people with courage, and in the absence of others, he was willing to put down the emperor's shelf and call himself me in front of Youyu.

Youyu: "Ming people don't say dark words, what do you want me to do before you are willing to let go of the northern wing." ”

Cangluan was quite surprised, he wanted to tell Youyu about his intentions, but he didn't expect him to be so straightforward, and he was a little relieved: "When did you become clever and know that I want you?" ”

It turned out that it was as he expected, so things were much simpler, and there was a fish: "I didn't know before, but I will know this, and if you want to kill, you have to listen to it." ”

"Interesting," Cang Luan admired a little, stared at his eyes, and said angrily, "Since you know that I don't beat around the bush, I want you to admit in front of the world that I didn't murder you when I hunted in Beishan, and you coveted the throne and spread rumors to smear me, and above the council, it was you who poisoned and killed the king." ”

Youyu was taken aback and said blankly: "When did Beishan Hunt me say that you murdered me?" ”

"Ridiculous, how could you not know? I have found out that it was your people who infiltrated the Central Plains to spread rumors, saying that I pushed you into the tiger's mouth and scolded me for murdering heroes. I thought it was right to kill the bureaucrats, but you villains spread rumors that I was going to kill you. ”

Thinking of the fish that made him wise, he wanted to kill him immediately, if he didn't have the value of use, he would have broken him into ten thousand pieces. Cangluan's anger squeezed out from between his teeth: "The princes have this reason to secretly dispatch troops, ready to move, those lackeys are about to be rebelled by you, Yu Youyu, you have hurt me so much." ”

Youyu was dumbfounded, smelled the murderous aura rising from Cangluan's body, and quickly explained: "I didn't know there was such a thing, I didn't know about it." I thought that if I became the king, you would release the northern wing, that's all. ”

Cangluan's demeanor when he saw that there was a fish did not look like he was lying, if there was a fish who did not know, someone was using the identity of a fish to resist him. He thought that after Youyu left the Central Plains, in order not to attract the attention of the world, he would not be so stupid as to be incognito, in fact, Youyu did hide his identity, otherwise it would have been a sensation a long time ago, and it would not have been delayed until now. But in the case of a fish incognito, who would know that the identity of the fish was used to carry out this scheme? If it is said that Youyu himself has such a clever and treacherous city, he will not believe it.

Cang Luan nodded: "Since you don't know, let me ask you another question, where is Feng Danmiao?" ”

Youyu chuckled in his heart, and he didn't know what he said that made Cangluan think of Feng Danmiao, his nerves tightened, and he blinked his eyes: "I don't know what you're talking about." ”

Cang Luan stared intently at Youyu, speculating on Youyu's psychology, "Feng Danmiao suddenly disappeared in Luzhou. ”

When it was time to test lying, Youyu concentrated his attention and forced himself to relax, silently breathed a long sigh of relief, and then bravely looked at Shangcanluan's suspicious eyes: "I am not in the Central Plains, how can I know his whereabouts." ”

Cangluan: "His own sister begged him to return to the mountains and forests, but he refused, except for you, who else would he disappear for without a trace?" ”

Listening to what Cangluan said, Youyu finally got a little comfort in a heavy heart, Feng Danmiao went away with him, he couldn't deny that he had affection for him, as long as he had even a little bit of concern, Youyu would not feel alone when he was in a desperate situation.

Youyu hypocritically made a dry laugh: "Don't you think what you said is ridiculous, if he is here, how can I become your prisoner?" Besides, he won't be for me, he has Da Yan in his heart, Mo Yilou, he is Your Majesty, how can he help me. ”

"Don't you and I know who is in his heart?"

Saying that, the two of them instantly fell into deep thought and thought about their own affairs, Youyu didn't care about the love of his son and daughter, he just wanted Cangluan to let go of the northern wing, it didn't matter how big the black pot was on his back, this was the only thing he could do for the northern wing.

Youyu was afraid that Cangluan would think too much, so he interrupted his thinking and said, "I confess, you can retire." ”

Cangluan stared at Youyu's eyes seriously, as if he was measuring something, and after a while he raised his voice and called: "Pass my decree and withdraw the army." ”

As soon as the Yan army withdrew, the ruins and ruins of the northern city were left, and the people who had not had time to escape were innocently killed, and the belongings that had not had time to move away were burned. Both armies suffered numerous casualties and losses, and the northern wing paid an even heavier price.

The sparse mud turned into red mud, and the cries of hatred of the people resounded through the heavens and the earth. Tulle's body was carried up to the high ridge, a place where the blood had not been stained red, and where the soldiers buried him, hoping that he would continue to protect his family and country after his death.

The Yan army lined up in a phalanx, and the archers drew their bows and aimed at the remaining wingmen who refused to surrender and fought to the end.

Youyu was brought to the front of the three armies, kneeling under the fluttering Yan flag, with two sharp slashes on his neck. The soldiers of the northern wing looked at Youyu in horror and did not dare to resist any more.

A eunuch triumphantly walked up to Youyu and announced loudly to the bureaucrats: "Emperor Dayan is generous and merciful, and personally went to the northern wing to apologize for the long-term peace and stability of the two countries, and does not want the king of the northern wing to have bad intentions and try to murder the king and steal the Cang family, which will arouse the anger of the people and gods. Anyone who commits this mortal crime should be put to death, but the emperor is the founder of the Great Yan Dynasty, and he has been prostrate, so he is pardoned for the death penalty, but the living crime is inescapable, as a courtier of the Great Yan, it should be brought back to the Great Yan for disposal. Today's battle is only a slight punishment by His Majesty, and I hope that the northern bureaucrats will be able to keep to themselves in the future and pay tribute every year according to the routine, so as to ensure that there is no need to worry about the world. ”

When Mu Lang heard this, he was extremely shocked, his eyes bared his teeth, and he roared angrily at the sky like a beast, hating Youyu and not fighting, and he couldn't wait to rush up and beat Youyu to a painful beating: "Guotanfu, you are a coward who has no seeds, why do you want to confess, you have lost all the face of the northern bureaucracy, and I treat you as a brother in vain!" Are you worthy of the kings of your ancestors, and worthy of your dead brethren? Stand up for me, the king is for the battle to die, not to kneel down to the villain! ”

Youyu hung his head low, his heart was extremely painful, but he couldn't shed a single tear, in the iron bones of the northern bureaucrats, a spineless person is not worthy of tears and does not deserve sympathy.

Youyu choked with dry eyes, and then raised his head and scolded Mu Lang: "It's me who wants to be the emperor, it's me who poisoned Your Majesty, I confess my guilt and don't do your business!" ”

Mu Lang can't tolerate Youyu's confession, that is an insult to their soul! He was as fierce as a mad cow, with green tendons protruding from his head, and he was so angry that he broke the spear in his hand, and scolded: "What do you mean not to do our business, you are the king of the northern wing, you are the northern bureaucrat, why do you ignore the dignity of everyone and let the entire northern wing resist this black cauldron, I don't accept it!" Guo Tanfu, you are a sinner of the Northern Bureaucracy, a sinner! ”

Youyu has become numb: "I am a sinner of Bei Bang and a sinner of Da Yan, I have to accept the punishment!" ”

Standing beside Mu Lang, who was already an orphan, he cried so much that he wiped his tears and accused Youyu: "Woo... Guotanfu, I look down on you, I look down on you..."

The eldest lady rushed back to witness a qiē, and the look of trust and support in her eyes was no longer there, but was replaced by a disappointed and tearful gaze. The eldest lady didn't say anything, hung her head and sighed and walked to the egg, tidied up the child's untidy clothes, and took him back to the city.

Nothing pained Youyu more than the disappointment of his people, who could not gaze into those dejected eyes, nor dared to call the lonely figures who turned away. He knew that the people disdained such a "charity" from Cangluan, and he did not dare to ask for their forgiveness. He didn't want them to be hurt, but he became a traitor to them, and his heart was already dripping with blood, and he wanted to cry but couldn't.

A group of wingmen were furious and re-grasped their weapons and stepped forward, but they were immediately killed by Yan's bow and arrows.

The eunuch raised his orchid finger and reprimanded angrily: "You barbarians, it is already the emperor's grace to prevent you from dying, if you are still stubborn, don't blame me for being polite!" You rough men don't care if you want to die, you still have to catch up with your own old and young! Do you think I'm no match for you? ”

Regardless of the family, as soon as they talked about their families, the bureaucrats became frightened, looked at each other, and retreated.

The eunuch glared at the wingman with disdain, turned around and walked away, and instructed the soldiers beside him: "What are you stunned, you are not ready to return to the capital." ”
