Cruel Choice 2

"Father, the emperor, and the three sons and ministers did not receive General Long outside the city," Zuo Lie, Zuo Feng, and Zuo Zhan reported

"What's going on?" In the court, the ministers talked a lot.

"This General Long won't rely on his high merits and not take the emperor in his eyes," a courtier and the people around him muttered quietly

"This General Long is too disagreeable, he actually made the emperor wait from morning to now"

"Look at this sky, the sun is about to set, this General Long has not yet arrived, so he doesn't take the emperor and us old ministers seriously"

Emperor Liang saw that the courtiers below were talking a lot, and when he saw that Zhenguogong's face was obviously darkened, Zhenguogong's eyes were on fire, and he glared angrily at the group of ministers who were talking, and his body trembled with anger. Ahem, Emperor Liang coughed a few times, and the court quieted down, "King Pingxi hasn't come back yet?" ”

"Back to the emperor, since the king of Pingxi received the holy decree, he immediately set off to the border pass," Liu Cheng, a scholar of the palace pavilion of the king of Pingxi, stepped forward to reply

"What does Liu Aiqing mean is that King Pingxi hasn't come back yet?" Emperor Liang asked with doubts, "It has been more than two months since the king of Pingxi went to the border pass to announce the decree, I don't know if my holy decree is so difficult to declare, or the road is difficult, and he has not returned to the dynasty yet."

"The emperor forgives the sin, I think the king of Pingxi and General Long came back together, so it was a little late" Liu Cheng explained in a panic, just now he said bad things about Long Yin, it seems that the emperor has been dissatisfied with him.

"Chuan Zhen ordered to go down, and when the soldiers guarding the gate saw General Long Yin, they immediately let him go" Emperor Liang commanded, and said to the ministers who had been standing below for a day, "It's getting late, all Aiqing go back first."

"Congratulations to the emperor", Emperor Liang stepped down from the dragon chair, and Liangda and some palace maids left after him.

"Zhenguo Gong, I'm one step ahead" The prime minister looked at Long Mo, who was pale, nodded, and left first. The other ministers said goodbye to Long Mo one after another, and Long Mo didn't say a word, just nodded his head.

"This king believes in General Long, he should just be delayed by some things on the way" Zuo Feng stepped forward to comfort, Long Mo nodded gratefully, and he was sentenced for despising the saint. "The king will go back to the house first, Yi'er is still waiting for the news of the king"

"Lord Slow Walk" Long Mo saluted, Zuo Feng nodded and left with Zuo Zhan.

Only Zuo Lie and Long Mo were left in the hall, and Zuo Lie said gently, "Let's go out of the palace with Zhenguo Gong"

Long Mo was a little puzzled, he and the prince have always talked little, today the prince actually invited him out of the palace together, Long Mo nodded, "The old minister is brave"

"Zhenguo Gongplease" Zuo Lie stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of please, and Long Mo also made the same gesture "Prince, the ceremony must not be wasted"

Zuo Lie smiled, one step ahead, Long Mo followed closely, there are too many eyes and ears in the palace, it is better to be careful in everything.

"Prince, the old minister's servants are waiting for the old minister in front, and the old minister will take the first step" Outside the palace gate, Long Mo said

"Zhenguo Gong go slowly" Zuo Lie watched Long Mo tremble and get into the carriage slightly, the servant who drove the carriage raised his whip, and the carriage made a creaking sound and moved slowly.

"What's the matter?" Zuo Lie stood outside the palace gate, as if talking to himself.

"Master, my subordinates just got the news, Long Yin is dead" A slight voice came from his ears, Zuo Lie's body was shocked, with obvious surprise and disbelief on his face, "What's going on?" ”

"The subordinates also just learned the news, the cause of Long Yin's death is unknown, and his personal guard Long Sha has returned to Beijing with his ashes."

"Go back to the Prince's Mansion" Zuo Lie said with a calm face, and went straight to the Prince's Mansion.

Fluttering, Long Sha spat blood, his eyes began to blur, seeing several black-clothed people coming over with swords, Longsha turned around with all his strength, and galloped all the way with light skills, until he could no longer see the figure of the man in black. Long Shacai panted and leaned against a tree, full of bitterness, "Young master, my subordinates thought that they would be able to see the master when they returned to Beijing, but I didn't expect that a tear fell from the corner of Long Sha's eyes" I didn't expect that the Zhenguo Mansion was surrounded by a group of unknown black-clothed people, and my subordinates couldn't get in."

Blood flowed from the corners of Long Sha's mouth, and then no one saw him in the cover of the night. Long Xu's face was full of pain, what the hell is going on, the young master was killed for no reason, and the Zhenguo Mansion was surrounded by people in black, and people were not allowed to enter.

"You said that the life of Princess Pingnan is really bitter" A few people walked by not far away, and one of them sighed

"But no, not long after marrying King Pingnan, King Pingnan is actually going to marry again, this time he actually married Concubine Ping, which makes Princess Pingnan feel comfortable"

"Who says it's not. On the day of marriage, King Pingnan sent a housekeeper with a sedan chair to pick up the second lady of the Zhenguo Mansion, and the actions of the King of Pingnan made the Duchess of Zhenguo faint on the spot. King Pingnan made it clear that he didn't take Zhenguo Gong in his eyes."

"Now that General Long is coming back, he will definitely get justice for his sister"

Long Sha held his breath and listened, isn't the second lady of the Zhenguo Mansion the younger sister of the young master? Long Sha stretched out his hand and clicked on a few big holes on his body, and ran all the way, dodging and dodging straight to Pingnan Wangfu.

"Miss, why did you say that the young master didn't arrive today?" Liu Cui walked around in front of Long Yi, asking her young lady worriedly.

Long Yi leaned on the bed, her abdomen was already very large, and the little fat dragon was more than eight months old, Long Yi yawned lazily. slurred words and said, "Maybe something is delayed on the road"

"I hope the young master will come back soon," Liu Cui folded her hands and prayed to the sky.

"Liu Cui, you don't like my brother," Long Yi quipped

Liu Cuideng's face turned red, and he said angrily, "Miss, you are talking nonsense, the slave and maid are not"

"When my brother comes back, I'll ask you" Long Yi smiled evilly, and suddenly his face sank, and he whispered, "What person?" It's still not coming out."

As soon as Long Yi's words fell, the sound of swords sounded outside the window, and Liu Cui ran to the window and saw two men in black fighting together, one of them was covered in black, and the other was not masked, and his side face could be seen in the moonlight. Liu Cui was puzzled, scratched her hair and muttered to herself, "Where do you seem to have seen this person?" ”

"Who is Liu Cui?" Long Yi asked

A face suddenly appeared in Liu Cui's mind, turned around and looked at Miss excitedly and said, "Miss, it's Long Sha, Long Sha is back"

"Dragon?" Long Yi asked rhetorically, Auntie, who did you say directly, how does she know who Long Sha is?

"Miss, why did you forget, Long Sha is the person next to the young master" Liu Cui said excitedly, with a hint of complaint in her voice.

"Then hurry up and tell them to stop" Long Yi heard Liu Cui say that Long Sha was the person next to Long Yin, and immediately ordered

"Stop fighting, Miss told you to stop fighting" Liu Cui was afraid of alarming the left wind, so she stood at the window and shouted in a low voice.

Yan Bin, who was dressed in black and masked, heard the sword in his hand retreat, took a few steps back, and stood under the window. Long Sha also put away his sword, the fight just now made his injuries worse, and Long Sha couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Dragon, what's wrong with you?" Liu Cui opened the door and ran out, holding the crumbling dragon sha, and asked worriedly.

"You are Liu Cui" Long Sha finally saw an acquaintance, and his eyes were wet for a while, "Take me to see Miss"

"Okay" Liu Cui picked up the dragon and walked back slowly.

Walking into the inner room, Long Sha saw Long Yi leaning on the bed at a glance, with a familiar face, and some similar edges and corners to Long Yin, which made Long Sha very excited for a while, and puffed Long Sha knelt on the ground, "Subordinate Long Sha see Miss"

"Hurry up, hurt?" Long Yi said lightly, "Liu Cui helped him sit down"

"Yes" Long Sha stood up and sat down on a chair not far from Long Yi with Liu Cui's support.

"Yan Bin, no one is allowed to say anything about tonight," Long Yi ordered in a cold voice, "And please bring some medicine"

"Subordinates understand" Yan Bin outside the window replied in a low voice, and a few dodges disappeared.

"Long Sha, where is the young master? Didn't you follow the young master? Liu Cui arrived at a cup of tea and handed it to Long Sha as she asked.

"Young master, young master" Long Sha lowered his head and choked

"What's wrong with my brother?" Long Yi saw Long Sha's sad expression, and he couldn't help but raise his throat and eyes.

"After the subordinates finished speaking, please hold on" Long Sha looked at Long Yi with red eyes, especially seeing Long Yi's bulging abdomen, Long Sha was a little worried about Long Yi's body.

Long Yi nodded, "It's okay, I'll hold on, you say" Long Yi secretly cheered.

"The young master was killed," Long Sha said in a low voice.

"What did you say?" Liu Cui couldn't believe what she was hearing, and asked again.

"The young master is dead" Long Sha repeated again in pain, and the scene of the young master's tragic death flashed in front of him.

Liu Cui fell to the ground with a puff, sobbing lowly, her young master, the young master of the wise and martial arts, was actually gone!

Long Yi was also stunned, and asked in a trembling voice, "Long Sha, what's going on?" Didn't the emperor send someone to the border to announce the decree to recruit his brother back? ”

"Miss, the subordinates don't know what happened, it's just that "two months ago, the same country suddenly attacked in the middle of the night, the young master took us out of the city to meet the enemy, and the princess of the same country appeared and fought with the young master, and when the subordinates found out, the young master and the princess of the same country disappeared together. The next morning, someone told the princess of the same country to go back, but the young master did not come back. The subordinates went to find out the whereabouts of the young master worriedly, and as a result, the body of the young master was found in a cave."

Long Xu choked, as if returning to that day, in the cave, Long Yin was lying in a pool of blood, his heart was pierced, his throat was cut by a sword, and the young master's face did not have a trace of strange expression, obviously he was killed in his sleep.

Long Yi burst into tears and listened to Long Sha's narration, "Do my father and my mother know? ”

"Miss" Long Sha's face was serious, "The subordinates wanted to go back to the Zhenguo Mansion first to report the matter to the master, but when they arrived at the Zhenguo Mansion, they were stopped by several unidentified black-clothed people, and the subordinates were also seriously injured"

"The Man in Black?" Long Yi asked

"Yes, Gu's subordinates observed, and the outside of the Zhenguo Mansion was surrounded by a group of black-clothed people of unknown origin" Long Sha was also full of puzzlement.

"It's weird," Ryui muttered to himself.
