"Is it very pleasantly surprised that the prince saw the princess here?" Huo Dong squeezed Li Anyue's shoulder tightly with one hand, and leaned the sword against Li Anyue's neck with the other.

Li Anyue frowned, and her chin couldn't help but rise.

Shenyue Haoqing frowned and turned over and dismounted, "Isn't it a shame for you, a prince of Qi, to hold a weak woman hostage again and again!" ”

Huo Dong sneered, "The so-called soldiers are not tired of cheating, and playing tricks is a common thing in war, so why should I mind?" ”

"Now that the country of Qi has been broken and your father has surrendered, what is the use of you doing it in vain?"

"Hmph, I didn't expect them to do anything, but I didn't expect them to surrender in the end, and I can only hate myself for being born in this cowardly royal family!" Huo Dong said disdainfully.

"From the beginning, your plan was wrong."

"That's not necessarily, don't I grasp your weakness now?" Huo Dong pulled out a sneer, and pulled Li Anyue a little closer to him.

Shenyue Haoqing frowned, and her voice was cold, "Do you think you can escape if you hurt her?" ”

"Run? Prince Ben has never been a deserter, otherwise why do you think I would have come to the edge of this cliff? Huo Dong looked up to the sky and smiled, "The country of Qi is broken, even if this king goes back, he is just a general of the defeated army, and what face does he have to continue to stay, don't all those traitors in the court look forward to my death." Since we're all going to die, I can't just die doing nothing. ”

"And what do you want?"

"I want you to die!" As soon as Huo Dong's words fell, the group of dead soldiers around him who had robbed Li Anyue rushed forward and dealt with Shenyue Haoqing together. Although Shenyue Haoqing himself had been cut through a few wounds by stray arrows, it was still more than enough to deal with a few dead soldiers.

Li Anyue's gaze kept falling on Shenyue Haoqing, who had shifted in shape, and Huo Dong put his mouth close to her ear, "What, are you distressed?" ”

Li Anyue felt the heat in his ears, so he turned his head and scolded, "Stay away from me!" ”

Shenyue Haoqing was distracted by this voice, so he looked at Li Anyue's side distractedly, but Li Anyue exclaimed, and a sharp sword slashed towards Shenyue Haoqing's face, Shenyue Haoqing fell down, and with a force under his feet, he flashed this fatal blow, but there was also a striking wound on his body, and blood fell from it.

"Lord Wang, how are you?" Li Anyue wanted to rush over, but was grabbed by Huo Dong.

The dead man saw that Shenyue Haoqing was supporting there without moving, and thought that he had already caught it, so he flew forward and stabbed it with a sword. But unexpectedly, before his sword fell, another cold sword had pierced into his body, and then he fell down with a bang, and with it the mask that had been split in half.

Huo Dong looked at the scene in front of him, was slightly stunned, and then sneered, "I didn't expect that the true face of the legendary ugly King Qingning turned out to be like this, but he has been deceived for more than ten years, and the prince's perseverance is admired by this prince." ”

The mask fell, and Shenyue Haoqing's demonic face was completely displayed in front of them, a scratch crossed the left side of his face, blood beads poured out, and he walked towards them with a bloody sword, and the wounds on his body kept dripping blood.

"Let her go, this king will fight with you alone."

Li Anyue looked at him like this, his nose was sore, and tears dripped down, dripped on the sword, and splashed out.

Huo Dong frowned slightly and sneered, "Don't pity your sweetheart, anyway, you will be like him later." ”

"If you dare to hurt her by half a point, this king will also make you pay double the price!" Shenyue Haoqing's long sword pointed at him.

"Really? Maybe you can take a few steps closer and give it a try. Huo Dong's sword was close to Li Anyue's neck, and soon cut through Li Anyue's delicate skin and stained it with bright red blood.

Shenyue Haoqing's eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of cold killing intent.

"What's the matter, is the prince distressed? Or you promise this prince a condition, and this king can consider not harming her. ”

"On what terms?"

"As long as the prince kneels down to this prince, I will no longer embarrass Li Anyue."

Shenyue Haoqing stared at him and was silent. Huo Dong smiled sarcastically, "It turns out that the life of your concubine is not more important than your dignity." Saying that, the blade of the sword was a little closer to Li Anyue, and Li Anyue had to tilt her head up.

Shenyue Haoqing's eyes were firmly fixed on the sword, and his feet moved slightly. Li Anyue shouted, "Shen Yue! If you kneel, I will look down on you! ”

Shenyue Haoqing's eyes turned to her, her eyes were full of distress, and Li Anyue's tears slipped down like pearls with broken threads, "You are the prince of the Tianyang Dynasty, and I am Li Anyue's husband!" If you kneel down before him, I ...... I won't love you again in this life! ”

Shenyue Haoqing was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed softly, his blood-stained lips became bewitching and beautiful, "This king naturally will not let this king's princess look down on him, and he will naturally not agree to your request." ”

"Are you willing to watch her die in front of you?" Huo Dong said coldly.

Shenyue Haoqing's eyes were cold, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became even more enchanting, "If you dare to harm her, this king will also let you survive and not die." ”

"Hahahaha......" Huo Dong seemed to have heard some funny joke, and laughed when he looked at him.

Li Anyue frowned, looked at Shenyue Haoqing, looked behind him again, his heart was crossed, and his head hit back, Huo Dong was caught off guard and was hit by her, the sword in his hand also flew out, and his body fell backwards, and Li Anyue was also taken by his hand and fell down to the cliff behind him.

"Yue'er!" Shenyue Haoqing then reached out and grabbed it, but only touched her fingertips, and then jumped off the cliff as well.

"Lord Wang!" At this time, the soldiers chasing behind him only saw the scene of Shenyue Haoqing jumping down, and they were no longer visible. "Quick! Send someone down the hill to look for it immediately! ”

At this time, the royal palace in the capital is also experiencing a great change.

The emperor Shenyue Cangting suddenly fell ill, and the crown prince Shenyue Haotian was reported for a strange light at night after the witch Gu incident three years ago, and then it was discovered that the prince was hiding a curse under the head of the bed, so before the truth was found out, the prince was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion, and the group of officials who assisted the prince led by Sun Zhi were also examined one by one.

Above the court, the Shenyue Cangting barely supported himself to sit on the throne, and after the witch Gu incident came out again, he seemed to be ten years old, and he couldn't stop coughing.

"Father, please take care of the dragon's body!" Shenyue Haoxuan stood up and said.

Shenyue Cangting glanced at the court and asked weakly, "What about Prime Minister Sun?" ”

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Sun Cheng is related to the case of the crown prince, and it has been transferred to the Zongren Mansion for management." Yu Wentao replied.

"Ahem, cough, ahem......" There was another violent cough, and it took a while to stop, and his face turned red, "How is King Qingning?" ”

"Today, there is news from the flying pigeon from the Waxi country, within one day, my Tianyang country defeated the Qi army, and the Qi country has surrendered. But......" Yu Wentao said and stopped to look at Shenyue Cangting.

"But what?"

"The minister didn't dare to say it."

Shenyue Cangting coughed again and patted the dragon chair, "What else dare you not say!" If I tell you to say it, you can say it! ”

"Yes, the biography of the flying pigeon says that the king of Qingning, the princess of Qingning and the prince of Qi have all fallen off the cliff one after another......"

There was silence in the court for a while, and Shenyue Cangting looked at him for a while without speaking, but suddenly a mouthful of blood spit out, staining the yellow robe red.

"Your Majesty!" All the officials exclaimed. Wu Yong hurriedly stepped forward to help him, the Shenyue Cangting was already unconscious, Wu Yong hurriedly shouted to the imperial doctor and carried the Shenyue Cangting down.

All the officials were stunned.

Yu Wentao took the lead and said, "Now that the emperor is sick, the matter of the prince is unknown, the life and death of King Qingning are uncertain, and the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, the minister proposes to ask the second prince to take on the responsibility temporarily!" ”

"King Chang, this is not good, after all, there are many brothers ......," Shenyue Haoxuan said with some embarrassment.

"The heir to the throne should have been the eldest son, but now that the crown prince is not there, he should be succeeded by the second prince, and the second prince does not have to pass the buck."

"It's not appropriate for King Chang to say this, now the emperor is just sick, where did he say about the succession!" Some ministers in the DPRK and China seem to be a little unaccustomed to what he has to say.

"Lord Luo, this king is just telling the truth. Besides, the second prince has a gentle personality and can take on great responsibilities, and there must be someone in the court to lead the overall situation, is there anyone in the court who is more suitable for this big responsibility? ”

The hundred officials in the court were speechless for a while, and the matter was decided in this way, and the second prince Shenyue Haoxuan temporarily took charge of the state affairs by King Chang and guaranteed.

In the emperor's bedroom, the imperial physician held the pulse of the Shenyue Cangting on the bed, his face was heavy, and he said to the people around him for a while, "Judging from the pulse, the emperor's breath is already very weak, I'm afraid it ......."

"What are you talking about? You are a doctor, can't you even save this little disease? Shenyue Haoxuan grabbed the imperial doctor's collar.

"The second prince is not strange, it's not that the old minister is unwilling to save it, but the emperor has worked hard for too long, and he has become ill from hard work, and just now this mouthful of blood spit out, the emperor's spirit has dispersed a lot, I'm afraid it's ......"

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid I'll keep going unconscious like this until I ......"

He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone also understood what he meant, Concubine Xian just sat on the side holding Shenyue Cangting's hand and looked at him quietly, but the other people in the room couldn't help crying.

Shenyue Haoxuan squatted down in front of his bed, "Father, the son will definitely work hard to govern the country on your behalf, please get better quickly!" ”

The army of the Vasi Kingdom was recalled to the capital a day later, and Shenyue Haoyu originally planned to stay, but the secret edict said that the emperor was critically ill, so he could only leave a small group of people to continue to look for Shenyue Haoqing and their traces along the river at the bottom of the mountain, and immediately set off to rush back to the capital.
