There was silence for a long time, except for the occasional "snap" of the wax wick in the candlestick next to him, and only the barely audible breath of the two of them remained. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"It's not early, Hou Ye rest early!" Zhong Chang smiled lightly and said lightly, the silence that had lasted for a long time was finally broken.

Then Zhong Chang Shi Ran got up, picked up the empty jade bowl on the bookcase in front of Li Sheng, and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute!" When he walked to the door, Li Sheng's slightly hurried voice remembered behind him.

Zhong Chang turned around, stood where he was, looked at Li Sheng and smiled, "Is there anything else wrong with Master Hou?" ”

Li Sheng nodded, got up and walked to the bookshelf on the side, activated a small mechanism, opened a secret compartment behind the bookshelf, and then, there was an envelope in his hand. Li Sheng walked up to Zhong Chang with the envelope, handed it to her with a smile, and said slowly, "Now your identity is no longer noble, but I, Li Sheng, am already the dignified king of Dongping, and today is the lord of Dongping. ”

Zhong Chang was stunned for a moment, his face changed drastically, he looked at the envelope that seemed to be very old and old in Li Sheng's hand, and then raised his head, squinted at Li Sheng with beautiful phoenix eyes, and said with a cold face, "Li Sheng, you ...... What does that mean?! ”

Li Sheng looked calm, took Zhong Chang's right hand, put the envelope into Zhong Chang's palm, then let it go, and said with a smile, "I mean, you, Zhong Chang, the eldest princess of Zhao'an of Da Chen, are no longer my Li Sheng's wife, no longer the Li family, you, have been divorced!" ”

"Smack!"

The end plate in Zhong Chang's hand fell over, the jade bowl fell to the ground, fell to the ground and shattered, and the jade bowl fell one by one, as well as the old envelope.

Zhong Chang took a step back, and only then did he stabilize himself by holding on to the door of the house, and looked at Li Sheng in disbelief, "Li Sheng, you ..... Do you really hate me like this?! ”

Li Sheng's face was still pale, and he said lightly, "Yes, as early as four years ago, when my mother died, this letter of resignation was already written for you, just waiting for the day it was delivered to you, that is, at this moment!" ”

Zhong Chang leaned against the wall, looked at Li Sheng in a daze, and then looked at the yellowed envelope lying in the debris lying on the ground, and suddenly smiled.

She regained her footing, then crouched down and picked up the envelope, walked to the nearest candlestick, and without hesitation, threw the envelope into the candlestick, and the flame was extinguished in an instant, and it was instantly reduced to ashes.

Li Sheng frowned, then relaxed, and then returned to Mu Ran.

Zhong Chang turned around, looked at Li Sheng with a smile, and said, "Li Sheng, you don't need to deceive me with such clumsy acting skills, if you really want to act, I can act better than you!" If you want to leave me a way out or out of this vortex in this way, I can only tell you that you are naïve! To this day, do you think Zhong Jing still has the possibility of letting me go alone? ”

Li Sheng frowned tightly, his face was slightly pale, but he only bowed his head and said nothing.

"Li Sheng, I don't know how many women you have loved, but I know that no matter how many, there is no Zhong Chang among them, but Li Sheng, do you know that I Zhong Chang has only loved you in my life! When the situation stabilizes, if you still decide to divorce me, then the resignation will be rewritten, and I promise you to leave. But now this one is too old and I don't accept it!! ”

Zhong Chang finished smiling, no longer caring about Li Sheng's reaction, stepping on the fragments of the jade bowl on the ground, walking straight out of the study and returning to his own independent courtyard.

Li Sheng looked at the debris on the ground and lost his mind for a long time.

So much so that he completely forgot that under normal circumstances, the guards outside would rush to inquire about the situation when they heard such movements, and at this moment, at least someone should come in and clean up these debris.

He and Zhong Chang forgot about it.

Because I forgot, I don't even know when there is an extra person behind me.

Until his neck was slightly cold, and a bright reflection fell into his eyes, and then, he stiffened, and finally realized it.

A cold shallow laugh sounded behind him, and he only heard it, "The world says that Marquis Wen is a rare and rare general, but in my opinion, this is not the case!" The alertness of a commander is so low that it is a miracle to be able to come back from the battlefield alive! ”

Li Sheng's eyes narrowed, his face instantly turned cold, the palm hidden by his sleeve was clenched into a fist, the green tendons protruded, and he said coldly, "Who are you?!" ”

"Me?" The person behind him smiled, his tone changed slightly, and said, "I'm a person you don't know even if you know, I'm ...... It's the one who's going to send you on your way with his own hands. Unlike the fortitude and coldness of the first sentence before, the voice at this time is much softer.

But Li Sheng was suddenly shocked, "You are a woman!" ”

The person behind him smiled lightly, and slowly moved from behind Li Sheng to the side, enough for Li Sheng to see her existence, but only partially from the afterglow. Dressed in a pitch-black night suit, tall and thin, he couldn't see his face clearly, but just by those bottomless eyes, he knew that the woman in front of him was by no means idle, of course, how could he be idle and appear in his room with such a strong defensive line! The sword was still on Li Sheng's neck, but the direction had changed slightly.

She is Han Yu, the most secret and sharpest sword of Emperor Chen.

Han Yu looked at Li Sheng with a smile and said, "What's wrong with the woman?" Can't a woman kill someone? ”

Li Sheng snorted lightly, his expression unchanged, and said, "You are the person sent by Zhong Jing, right?" Actually, I've been sneaking into the city for a long time, right?! ”

Han Yu smiled and shook his head, "The first half of the sentence is right, the second half of the sentence is right, but it's not right!" For I had been here three days earlier, and this was my third visit, but I had just come in from outside the city to-night! ”

"Oh, yes!" Li Sheng smiled faintly and continued, "If my guess is correct, your identity is Huang Lingwei?!" ”

"What? Master Hou, you're not stalling for time, are you? Han Yu smiled lightly.

Li Sheng smiled faintly, "Or, you can understand it that way!" ”

"Oh! But if that's really the case, then I have to desperately remind you, Master Hou, do you know why I can stand in front of you so boldly and answer your questions so patiently? Han Yu looked at Li Sheng and said with a chuckle, "Do you want to go out and see the final death of your government guards and house slaves?" I don't dare to say anything else, but there is one thing I dare to promise Hou Ye, that is, they all cut their throats with a sword, and they were killed instantly, and there was absolutely no pain when they died! ”

Li Sheng's brows furrowed suddenly, staring at Han Yu angrily, and said, "What about my family?" Did you kill them too?! ”

Han Yu smiled and shook his head, "No, that's not true, after all, I have to let your Hou Ye meet them one last time, right?" Han Yu said, his left hand was raised, his thumb, index finger and middle finger were instantly staggered, and he snapped his fingers a little crisply, "Quicksand, Hanying, bring people in!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the door of the room was pushed open, and two masked men in black quickly flashed in front of Han Yu, and the chief inspector said respectfully, "Commander Han." ”

Han Yu hummed lightly, and the two men in black immediately stepped forward and took out ropes to tie Li Sheng's hands tightly behind his back, followed by more than a dozen men in black, and more importantly, they escorted several people in, one after another, his eldest son, second son, eldest daughter, and young daughter who was only six years old...... Like throwing garbage, they threw people in front of Li Sheng, and fell crookedly together, and they all fell unconscious.

Li Sheng was finally completely enraged, and in his gaze at Han Yu, he was already about to kill!

But this is not over, yes, there is still one person missing, his wife, Zhong Chang, who has just walked out of him.

Sure enough, the next moment, they brought her in and brought her in front of him, Zhong Chang was not unconscious, but her mouth was sealed with a strip of cloth, and her hands were tightly bound behind her back with ropes, unable to move.

The moment he raised his eyes to meet each other, Li Sheng actually saw a faint smile in Zhong Chang's eyes.

He and she both knew that tonight would probably be the end of their lives. But at this time, his wife, the woman he had hated and hated for so many years, was smiling at him, or rather, she was comforting him.

Li Sheng tried his best to restrain the urge to fight to the death with the other party, looked at Han Yu sideways, and said coldly, "What do you want to do?" ”

At this time, Han Yu had already put away his sword, was walking to the soft chair on the side and sat down comfortably, smiled faintly, and said, "Hou Ye is smart, I won't beat around the bush, I will make a deal with Hou Ye: you gather all the subordinates with real power distribution to come here, and then go upstairs with me after dawn, and order Kaicheng to surrender, and give you the life of your two sons, two daughters, and your wife, Princess Zhao'an." How, is the deal worth it? ”

"But how do I know if you're really going to keep your promise?"

Han Yu smiled lightly, "What's this?" If I had let them go first, I wouldn't have believed you; But if you don't let it go, you can't trust me, anyway, there is always one party who can't believe it, does the Hou Ye think I will choose the former or the latter? ”

Li Sheng's face was as pale as iron, he just looked at Zhong Chang, and Zhong Chang also looked at him, but he was shaking his head: Don't agree!

Of course, Han Yu understood what Zhong Chang was expressing, and he didn't stop it, but just smiled lightly, "Master Hou, have you thought about it?" ”

"That's it!" Li Sheng said lightly, "I, promise you!" ”

Zhong Chang slowly closed his eyes, his expression desolate.

Han Yu clapped his hands and praised, "Master Hou is refreshing!" In that case, then please Master Hou, how about gathering your subordinates first? ”

Li Sheng moved the arm tied behind his back and said, "Are you sure you want me to go out like this?" ”

Han Yu beckoned, and ordered lightly, "Untie Hou Ye!" ”

A man in black stepped forward and untied the rope from Li Sheng's wrist.

Li Sheng walked out of the room, the entire huge mansion was as quiet as stagnant water, and in addition to the fragrance of flowers and trees in the backyard, there was also a faint blood scattered everywhere in the night breeze.

When he walked to the atrium, he saw the first corpse, an old slave, followed by the second, and then the third...... In front of him were corpses one after another on the ground, and behind him were more than a dozen black-clothed people who had changed swords into crossbows, and Li Sheng walked out of the mansion in this way.

Li Sheng summoned the squad to patrol the streets at night, and ordered him to pass on the instructions and summon all the other generals to patrol the night.

About a quarter of an hour later, all the subordinate generals were awakened from their sleep and hurried one after another.

What made them strange was that the door of the Wenbohou Mansion was wide open in the middle of the night, and there was no one inside or outside, and more importantly, there was obviously a very strong smell of blood in the air! Everyone was instantly shocked, what's going on......

What answered them was a sudden rain of arrows behind them, and before everyone could react to what was going on, countless arrows had already passed through their bodies, and their eyes were wide open, and they fell down in shock and disbelief.

In the open space inside the gate, listening to the rain of arrows and the sound of the wind outside, Li Sheng closed his eyes with difficulty.

Night, once again, a dead silence returned.

The east is turning gray, and the dawn is approaching.

Han Yu took Li Sheng out of the Wenbohou Mansion and went to the top of the city tower, waiting for the end of the night.

"Master Hou, it's almost dawn!"

Li Sheng smiled faintly, "Yes, it's almost dawn, so shouldn't my family also be released?" ”

Han Yu smiled and nodded, "When the city gate opens, it will be the time when I let all the Hou Ye's family leave!" ”

Li Sheng stopped talking, but no one expected that the first thing they were waiting for was not the opening of the city gate under them, but the sudden sky-high fire in the city behind them.

Is that...... It's the Mansion of the Marquis of Wenbo!

Han Yu's face changed greatly, "Where is the fire, what's going on!" Han Yu yelled.

Li Sheng turned to look at the firelight behind him that almost lit up the entire sky, but he seemed to think of something, a buzz in his head, a rush of anger, a sweet throat, and a mouthful of blood gushed out.

A man in black ran to Han Yu panting, knelt down with a "bang", and said, "Commander, the eldest princess of Zhao'an, she overturned the candlestick and set herself on fire when our people were not paying attention......

It's true.......

No wonder when he left just now, she said to him softly: It's useless, you, you can't save us!

He didn't know if he could save them, but it was the only option that could save them, so without hesitation, he chose to do so.

But where did he think that she chose to self-immolate......

Hehehe, it's okay now!

He personally sent his subordinates to the arrows of Huang Lingwei, and even prepared to take the initiative to open the city and surrender, and let the imperial army enter the city.

She and her, let alone a way out, even in the future, there is no more.

And between them, the lust for power is treacherous, love and hate, who can tell clearly!

Li Sheng suddenly laughed, the more he laughed, the more he laughed, the louder he laughed, and finally it was so loud that he didn't even have a voice.

Li Sheng suddenly turned around and rushed straight to the city wall behind him, with a "bang", his head kissed the wall, Li Sheng was still smiling, but his body gradually softened, and the place where his head kissed the city wall and where he was lying at the moment, there were two scarlet roses, which were in full bloom......
