Chapter 51: The Past
Xie Roujia's screams almost deafened herself, but no one looked at her.
Zhou Chengzhen still looked at the servant woman and frowned, and the servant woman still lowered her head.
"If you're dead, hang it quickly." Zhou Chengzhen said.
His voice was a little disgusted and impatient.
If it weren't for looking at him, Xie Roujia wouldn't have recognized that it was Zhou Chengzhen who was talking.
No, why did she forget, Zhou Chengzhen's attitude and tone of speech to her were like this, but Zhou Chengzhen in this life is different.
This life, that life, is she back to that life now? Is she dead? Or there is nothing at all about this life and that life.
This thought flashed through Xie Roujia's body, and the screaming stopped.
There is no such thing as this life.
At that time, after being reborn, she always thought that the original incident was just a nightmare, but she was glad that she woke up, and what she was most afraid of was that the nightmare would come true
Is it not rebirth at all, but she is dreaming, this life is a dream.
Xie Roujia stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, tears welled up.
So has she actually become a ghost? And then had a dream that yearned for a good one? Now the dream has finally woken up.
Xie Roujia looked at her corpse that was being hung on the beam by two servants tremblingly, tossed like a rag doll, and her eyes were not closed yet.
Zhou Chengzhen!
Xie Roujia's gaze fell on the man standing with his hands in his hands, he stood aside, his expression impatient, and his gaze was even more lazy to look at his corpse.
It seems that to look at it more is to blaspheme himself.
It's because of this, so in her dreams she fantasizes about such a person who likes her. Is Zhou Chengzhen pestering her?
Why did she have such a disgusting dream, why did she imagine such a Zhou Chengzhen.
Zhou Chengzhen!
Xie Roujia stared at him deadly.
Zhou Chengzhen suddenly turned his head to look at her.
Xie Roujia couldn't help but sob.
He, did he see her?
A trace of doubt flashed in Zhou Chengzhen's eyes under the dim light, but in an instant, he was disdainful.
"Fuck off!" He jerked his foot up.
A show stool on the side was picked up by him and smashed at Xie Roujia.
Xie Roujia was caught off guard, and the stool passed through her and rolled to the ground, making a loud noise.
The sudden shouting and smashing made the two servant women in the room tremble, and it was easy to pick up the body of Xie Roujia, who was about to hang the white silk, and fell down, which made them scream in fright.
"There are ghosts!"
Zhou Chengzhen was furious, raised her foot and kicked at them.
"There's a! Hurry up! He shouted.
The two servants hurriedly crawled to support the corpse on the ground again.
Xie Roujia trembled angrily.
Zhou Chengzhen, bastard!
She raised her hand and struck him hard. But the person passed through Zhou Chengzhen's body.
Ghosts are spirits and have no substance.
Can't it hurt him?
Xie Roujia turned around and hit Zhou Chengzhen again.
Zhou Chengzhen stood in place. Obviously, he sensed that something was wrong, but his expression was still disdainful.
"Lao Tzu has killed a lot of people, I'm afraid of you." He said coldly, "I was killed by Lao Tzu when I was a human." What's so terrible about being dead and becoming a ghost? ”
The two servants trembled with fright at his words. Hung Xie Roujia's body crookedly on the white silk. The shoes are all off.
Xie Roujia gave up for a moment.
That's it, that's it, it's dead anyway. If you can't become a ghost, what can you do.
JMC! That's right, JMC! How's JMC doing?
She turned her head and ran out the door, and one of the guards rushed in and slammed straight into Xie Roujia.
Xie Roujia was still not used to this meeting, so she stopped in fright.
"Lord Shizi, it's not good..."
The guard shouted and passed over Xie Roujia's body.
Xie Roujia couldn't help but sigh out from her heart, but the person who raised her feet again was stunned.
In the night, a man in white in a black cloak strode in, and the white lantern by the door illuminated his jade-like face.
King of Dongping County!
"Your Highness!" Xie Roujia shouted with joy and threw herself towards the king of Dongping County, but before the person could get close, a gust of wind hit her, pushing her aside.
Xie Roujia slammed into the wall, penetrated the wall and fell into the next room.
What's going on?
She slammed into the wall without hesitation, and penetrated back to the house again, where Wang Zheng of Dongping County and Zhou Chengzhen stood opposite each other.
“… Who's this? King Dongping asked.
It's me!
Xie Roujia ran towards him, but before she could get close to the king of Dongping County, the fierce wind struck again and swept her back fiercely.
Hairpin!
Xie Roujia fell into the corner of the wall and thought about it, and looked at the king of Dongping County, sure enough, the golden hairpin with the crown on his head was faintly glowing, and as she looked over, the hairpin emitted a dazzling light like the sun.
The Sun God Bird of the Great Witch King.
Xie Roujia stood up indignantly.
What are you crossing! I'm not going to hurt him! Who am I you don't recognize? I'm a witch too!
Perhaps it was her indignation that took effect, and the light of the hairpin faded.
Xie Roujia was overjoyed and hurriedly ran over again, but there was still a strong wind coming, unlike the previous two times, it did not sweep her away, this time it was like a barrier to isolate her.
This damn thing!
Xie Roujia had no choice but to give up.
This hairpin is so powerful, he gave it to himself casually and looked indifferent at the beginning.
“… Uncle Nineteen, this is my grandmother, my grandfather went to her like this. Zhou Chengzhen's voice came, sighing with a bit of self-reproach, "I only care about my grandfather's funeral, I didn't expect her to be like this, and I hope that Uncle Nineteen can show the emperor and give her the title of a festival woman." ”
Bah! Xie Roujia spouted.
"This is the young lady of the Xie family?" Dongping Junwang said, looking at the hanging woman.
The young lady of the Xie family was completely stranger.
Xie Roujia was a little aggrieved, but more of a stunned.
He didn't know himself, and all that care and closeness was only a fantasy he had imagined in his dreams.
Probably in the moment of despair and sorrow on the verge of death, thinking that no one cares about him in this life and no one likes him. And the king of Dongping, who didn't see it with her own eyes, but felt it from the excitement of the girls, was fantasized like that by her.
Xie Roujia couldn't help but look at the king of Dongping County, his appearance was the same as in the dream, only more calm and mature, yes, now he is a few years older than in the dream.
"Actually, you don't have to kill her."
The voice of the king of Dongping County came, interrupting Xie Roujia's distraction.
"Zhou Chengzhen, you can't wait for the news you want."
Message?
What's the news?
Zhou Chengzhen was also surprised.
"What did Uncle Nineteen say?" He asked, and then looked sad again. "Is Your Majesty not going to let me go back to the capital? Your Majesty is still mad at me. ”
After that, he looked firm.
"I don't care. Your Majesty is in poor health, I must go back to see, Uncle Nineteen, you don't want to stop me. ”
"I won't stop you." The king of Dongping said, "I'm here to pick you up." ”
A smile appeared on Zhou Chengzhen's face.
"I knew that Uncle Nineteen was the best for me." He said.
As soon as the words fell, I heard a noise outside, accompanied by the shouts of people.
"Lord Shizi! Quick"
Before he finished speaking, the person screamed and went silent.
Zhou Chengzhen's complexion changed greatly. Lift your feet and take a step. People from outside have poured in. All are brightly armored, armed with bows and crossbows, and swords.
The servant woman in the house shrank to the ground with a scream.
"Zhou Yan, what do you mean by this?" Zhou Chengzhen shouted coldly.
"It means that your rebellion has been revealed." Dongping County King said.
Conspiracy?
Xie Roujia's eyes couldn't help but widen, and then she hated again.
Sure enough, there was no dream mistake. It turned out that they really rebelled.
"Uncle Nineteen, what nonsense are you talking about?" Zhou Chengzhen shouted angrily, "Who are you, and what is the rebellion?" ”
"Shao Mingqing has been recruited." Dongping County King said.
Shao Mingqing?
Xie Roujia couldn't help but reach out and grab the placket of her clothes.
"What is he recruiting? What does it have to do with me? I don't know him well. Zhou Chengzhen sneered, "If you do any tricks on me, you can say it clearly." ”
The king of Dongping County still looked indifferent.
"Your grandfather isn't dead." He said.
Zhou Chengzhen sneered.
"Zhou Yan, what are you talking about?" He said.
The king of Dongping did not answer him, but raised his hand.
"Bring it in." He said.
There was a sound of footsteps outside, Xie Roujia hurriedly turned around to look, and saw that the coffin of King Zhenbei was carried in.
What does it mean to not be dead?
She couldn't help but raise her feet, someone was faster than her, and Zhou Chengzhen walked through her and stood in front of the coffin first.
"Zhou Yan! Death is safe! You actually carried my grandfather out! He shouted angrily and raised his hand to hit the king of Dongping County.
The king of Dongping raised his hand to block him, and pressed him on the coffin, and at the same time reached into the coffin, Xie Roujia only heard a tearing sound, and the king of Dongping raised his hand with a soft and collapsed skin.
Human skin?
Xie Roujia couldn't help but widen her eyes.
Did he tear off the skin of King Zhenbei?
"Who is he?" Dongping County King said.
Who is it? Isn't it the king of Zhenbei?
Xie Roujia couldn't help but pounce over and look into the coffin, she was also present when King Zhenbei was buried, and she recognized the shroud, but now the face of the person lying in the coffin wearing the shroud was completely different.
It's Atu!
Xie Roujia almost fell into the coffin, her eyes wide in disbelief.
How did the coffin become Atu?
Zhou Chengzhen's laughter sounded in his ears.
"Ah, how my grandfather has changed!" He was exaggerated with surprise, "Uncle Nineteen, what did you do to my grandfather?" ”
The king of Dongping threw him to two guards, and the guards held Zhou Chengzhen down.
"I really didn't expect that you played such a big play, it turned out to start when the Xie family proposed marriage, no, or from the time when Shao Mingqing entered the First Emperor Ding, it was already your arrangement." The king of Dongping said, "The First Emperor Ding was originally given to him by you. ”
It turns out that this is really the case, just like in her dream, there is really the First Emperor Ding, and it is really in the Zhenbei Palace, and it is also Shao Mingqing's offering.
Xie Roujia couldn't say that she was in any mood.
"I don't understand what Uncle Nineteen said." Zhou Chengzhen said with a smile.
The king of Dongping looked up at the woman who was still hanging on the white silk.
"Let the woman of the Xie family marry over in order to bring the king of Zhenbei out." He said. "Through that marriage, you can let your people come to the Zhenbei Wangfu from the capital, your people replace the Zhenbei King, and then the Xie family's relatives take the Zhenbei King."
What the?
Xie Roujia only felt that her brain was messing up.
It turns out that her relatives are just for this?
It's not that her parents are disgusted and don't want to see her, nor are they contributing to the Xie family for the marriage with the royal family, but just creating an opportunity and building a bridge.
It's really more unbearable than the original thought that the parents were disgusted.
Zhou Chengzhen's laughter rang out again, as if he was laughing at her.
"Uncle Nineteen, what you said is as if it were true." He said, "It sounds like I arranged all this, I'm such a powerful guy with a bad reputation in the capital?" ”
"Yes. You're amazing. I don't even know when you hooked up with Shao Mingqing. The king of Dongping County said, "How did you convince the Peng Shui Xie family, if it weren't for Shao Mingqing's repentance at the last moment, he held down the king of Zhenbei who pretended to be a Taoist priest in the alchemy room." His Majesty who was coaxed was really killed. ”
Shao Mingqing repented at the last moment?
Zhou Chengzhen's complexion changed. It's hard to hide the fierce light in your eyes.
"Soul Transfer Pill." Dongping County King said. "I don't know if this thing is really effective, but unfortunately I can't try it, so I threw it directly into the Dan furnace and burned it."
Zhou Chengzhen stood up straight. Break free from the two guards.
"You even know the Soul Transfer Pill, it can be seen that Shao Mingqing is really backwatering." He said, "I really didn't expect this guy to be such a villain." ”
"I didn't expect you to do such a thing to usurp the throne." Dongping County King said.
Zhou Chengzhen laughed.
"What's so unexpected, don't you think like this every day?" He said.
Xie Roujia was in a mess on the side, she knew that Shao Mingqing deliberately wanted the Xie family to be punished, but she didn't expect that he was with Zhou Chengzhen, was he taking the initiative or was he being provoked by Zhou Chengzhen?
"Take him down." Dongping County King said.
Zhou Chengzhen was neither noisy nor noisy, allowing the two soldiers to catch him.
"What about my grandfather?" He asked, "But you hacked you to death in place?" ”
The king of Dongping looked at him.
"Yes, hacked to death on the spot." He said.
Zhou Chengzhen smiled at him, and was obediently walked out by the soldiers.
The coffin of the king of Zhenbei was also carried out, the room became quiet, the two servants shrank on the ground and shivered, Xie Roujia stood in place blankly, until a gust of wind pushed her away, only to find that it was the king of Dongping County who came over.
She retreated in the corner, looking at the king of Dongping who was walking towards the door, he suddenly stopped and turned around, Xie Roujia's heart couldn't help jumping.
Your Highness!
She couldn't help but take a step forward.
The eyes of the king of Dongping County did not look at her, but at the back.
Xie Roujia followed his gaze and saw himself still hanging on the white silk.
"Put people down." Dongping County King said.
The two servant women got up in a hurry, it was difficult to hang it up, and it was also difficult to remove Xie Roujia's corpse, and they were shaking and almost tearing the clothes on their bodies, and they hadn't put it down yet.
Xie Roujia, who was pushed by the wind again, floated away, and she watched the king of Dongping County walk back from the door, stretched out his hand to hold his body, easily tore off the white silk, and put himself on the ground.
"A poor man, too." The king of Dongping said, looking at the woman who was still staring at her eyes, he bent over and reached out to touch her eyes, and then withdrew his hand, the eyes were already closed.
He looked at the woman's messy clothes again, untied her cloak and put it over the corpse, and then turned and strode out.
Xie Roujia stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, tears raining down.
This is not in a dream, they have never known each other, and she is not his savior, he will even give her such mercy and give her the last trace of dignity of this dead person.
Xie Roujia chased out, the lights were bright outside, there were people running around everywhere, crying and shouting in a mess, I couldn't understand the figure of the king of Dongping County, I didn't know if he was far away, or the hairpin didn't want him to be seen by her ghost and cut her off.
"The ancestors and grandsons of the king of Zhenbei rebelled, and they were ordered to raid their homes and escort them to await judgment."
Such words kept ringing all around, and the people were driven away.
JMC!
Xie Roujia came back to her senses, how is Jiangling?
She hurriedly ran towards Jiang Ling's residence, and before she reached Jiang Ling's residence, she saw Jiang Ling being grabbed by several soldiers and walking out.
Jiang Ling's cloak struggled.
"Miss! Let me go see my young lady! How's my young lady! She cried out in tears and struggled desperately, for this drew unceremonious whipping from the soldiers.
"If you don't obey again, I'll cut you on the spot!" They scolded coldly.
Jiang Ling let the back of the stick and knife hit her body and head, the blood dripping from her head soaked her clothes, she was still wearing the clothes she had just come back, although she said to let her rest, but she didn't dare to take off her clothes at all, waiting for her call at any time.
Xie Roujia cried and pounced.
"JMC, JMC." She tried to hug her, but she pounced.
Jiang Ling was lying on the ground and struggling to crawl.
"This girl is really a magic barrier." The soldiers said helplessly, "Those who want to die or live refuse to leave." ”
"Then let her die." One of the soldiers said impatiently, "It's impossible to take everyone away anyway." ”
Xie Roujia was shocked and pounced on Jiang Ling.
Don't, don't.
But before the swords fell, there was a sudden commotion ahead.
"Zhou Chengzhen ran away!"
He's sure to run, how can he be the kind of guy who obediently catches him.
"He can't run out, no one can run out from here, His Highness has all arranged."
There were also indifferent voices around him, but the next moment there was a loud bang in front of him, and the smoke of the fire rose up.
It's on fire!
Xie Roujia also raised her head in shock, and Jiang Ling beside her also shouted.
"Miss!" Her voice was so miserable that she almost fainted.
That's where you live.
Xie Roujia came back to her senses and looked at the mansion surrounded by firelight in a blink of an eye.
The people in the yard ran around to put out the fire, but it soon stopped.
"Your Highness said, there is no need to save it, since he is going to die, let him die."
Jiang Ling had already fainted, Xie Roujia looked at the burning mansion blankly, and the figure of Zhou Chengzhen standing in it could be faintly seen.
It was Zhou Chengzhen who lit the fire, of course he was going to light it, there was a First Emperor Ding in his residence, and he wouldn't let the emperor get it.
Then this time he died with himself, but it was certainly not what he wanted and he would not be happy about.
