Chapter 44: Ominous

Xia Shijie originally closed his eyes and waited for death, his body was cold and tight, and he felt scared for the first time, but at this time he heard a clear and clear voice, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the axe next to his head, and suddenly sweat soaked his forehead and seeped into his eyes.

Squeezed his eyes, gasped for breath twice, he still had palpitations, and barely looked up to see Hongchen.

The girl was just wearing a very ordinary dress, the material was not bad, but it was something that the maids in the family would not wear, but she was able to talk eloquently in front of King Li.

Xia Shijie didn't want to admit it, in fact, he was very scared, although he couldn't bear to see Miss Shufen die tragically and fought hard, in fact, he didn't dare to look directly into King Li's eyes.

That person is like an evil ghost from the hell of Shura, and it makes people shudder at the sight of it, and he doesn't know where he got the courage to dare to die in front of him!

Hongchen stood there, and his momentum was enough to match.

For a moment, Xia Shijie even felt that he saw the light, this girl was so radiant, it made him feel turbulent.

When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, and he suddenly remembered Ah Chan.

When he was a child, he led Ah Chan out of the door, Ah Chan because of a head flower, and a little girl argued, straight tears, crying so that his eyes were swollen, he was distressed for a while, he was impulsive, pushed the little girl to fall, but never thought that he met a little girl on the street at will, it was actually the fifth princess of the current emperor, he was so angry that his father was beaten ten boards, and he was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days.

Ah Chan cried so fiercely, and now that he thinks about it, he still can't help but feel distressed.

The child has been squeamish since he was a child, he will cry when he his fingers in embroidery, he will be sad when he twists his feet when he dances, and his temperament is even weaker, among all the girls in the Xia family, she is the most delicate and soft.

Such a Chan......

Such a red dust girl......

Xia Shijie doesn't know, which one will be loved more by his father, if Hongchen girl returns to the Xia family, with her ability, I am afraid she will definitely be valued, and when everyone knows that it is Ah Chan who has replaced her position for more than ten years, how will she react?

The most important thing is, will the Red Dust girl hate Ah Chan?

Will she hurt Ah Chan in a fit of anger?

Xia Shijie himself actually knows very well that if he is replaced, his parents and relatives will be occupied by others for more than ten years, and he will be so angry that he will want to eat each other alive.

Hongchen didn't know that this idiot could still think about it at the critical juncture right now, and his mind was full of his aunt.

If you really know, maybe Hongchen will turn around and leave, uh, no, no matter what this thing is, there are other things to do.

However, at this time, neither she nor King Li obviously took Xia Shijie to heart.

"Over the years, the disciples of the Xia family have been losing money year after year, but they have never flinched, King Li wants to admit that they have made great contributions to the country, and they should be able to protect their descendants."

"Xia Shijie is the eldest son of the patriarch, he is deeply favored, he himself is nothing, but for the sake of those elders in his family who love him, if you think that he has to die, it is better to leave a life."

King Li's anger subsided slightly.

Hongchen has lived a lifetime longer, so he can understand this person's mind.

After he became the emperor, I don't know how many people pondered and observed him every day, and Hongchen was also one of them.

At this time, if she said something else to her face, King Li would not listen to it, but when she talked about the thrilling war in the third year of Yongping, this person would never forget it.

That time, the Xia family lost the most outstanding disciples, even if the foundation was thick, but it has not completely recovered until now.

King Li is not an ungrateful person, he also doesn't like hypocrisy, and because Hongchen spoke in public, it seemed to sweep his face, so he felt guilty, looked at Xia Shijie, and sneered: "That's it, I worked hard to clean him up, and the Xia family won't appreciate it." ”

As soon as the words fell, his guards went over and picked up Xia Shijie and threw him back, as if they were going to send him away when they were done.

This boy is not stupid, he didn't say anything provocative at this time, and after being frightened by this, it is estimated that the careful thinking of pity and cherishing the jade is gone.

The sun is rising.

Dressed in robes, the three masters led twenty boys and twenty girls, kneeling and prostrating, toward the river.

The sacrifice was about to begin, and the three masters chanted the scriptures in their mouths, and with each recitation, the earth shook, and there was a hissing sound in the grass on the mountain road next to him.

There are a lot of snakes.

It seems normal to have snakes in the spring, and King Li doesn't care much about it.

The crowd of onlookers was a little restless, felt fishy, and made some nausea.

Hongchen suddenly said: "Ten thousand snakes are dancing wildly, an ominous omen, today's killing is unknown, and it is not appropriate to see blood!" ”

King Li squinted his eyes and tilted his head sideways.

"What, Miss wants to stop me again today?"

Seeing his gaze, Hongchen smiled bitterly in his heart, hey, if only there was no Xia Shijie.

It is estimated that the prince is a little angry at the moment.

King Li is also a human being, and many people have a habit of being stopped twice by the same person in one day, most of them will be unhappy, so it will be more difficult to stop him the second time than the first time, especially since the status of the two parties is completely unequal.

The family is the prince, and Hongchen is just a people's daughter.

If it weren't for the fact that at this moment, her jade jue tinkling and dingdong kept ringing, urging her to take over the task of saving the beautiful girl, she was afraid that no matter how uncomfortable she was, she would have been shaken.

"Spruce."

King Li shouted.

The spruce took the guards with axes in their hands, and walked to the edge of the stream and lined them up, and the bound girls also staggered and were brought over, and they all knelt down.

Some of these girls wept bitterly, some shouted loudly, and some were depressed and resigned to their fate, all of them were described as haggard.

King Li didn't look at Hongchen again, put on his cloak, and walked forward slowly.

Xue Gonggong stretched out his hand and didn't hold it, and the red dust also passed.

"I want to watch and study, the scriptures of Master Sanyi are extremely well read, and it is not easy to listen to them once."

She really didn't go to King Li, she walked straight behind Master Sanyi, and followed not far away, even if Sanyi took a step, she also took a step forward, her steps were light, but the landing was extremely heavy, as if she was stepping on a drum.

But the body of the three haters suddenly stiffened, and his steps suddenly became chaotic, and even the rhythm of chanting scriptures was a little disordered.

It was majestic just now, but it looked a little embarrassed at this time.

"I see that those spirit snakes are ferocious and abnormal, if they really make trouble, I'm afraid they will die, and your control methods are not very clever, in case they get out of control, you will be the first to die."

Hongchen's voice was very subtle.

Sanyi frowned: "What do you have to do with the girl?" ”

"What are these words? I'm here, if your Spirit Snake Array is activated, it's okay to go smoothly, but if it gets out of control, it's not me who is unlucky when you die? ”

Three snorts and one choke.

The great monk listened to this person's tone, as if he must not be able to do it, but he still couldn't refute it, just this little girl's every foot on the node, has already disturbed his steps to cast spells, he was already injured, but he tried his best, and now he is even more uncertain.

The thoughts in his mind were chaotic, and the three angers eased his voice: "Miss, I don't have to die for King Li, if he is taught a lesson that day, and he is willing to leave Qixian honestly, why should I break the vows for him, but he doesn't go, and he can't be persuaded, at this time, the arrow is on the string, and he has to send it, if he really lets him sacrifice the dragon king alive today......

The three hated swallowed back the words, as if they were in distress, but their expressions became more and more determined.

Hongchen sighed, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "That's it, anyway, with me, it's unlikely that you can succeed in this matter, don't be in a hurry to break the net too quickly, if I fool King Li away, wouldn't everyone be happy?" ”
