Chapter 265: Yangchun Palace! Yangchun Palace!
The prison was like night, and even though there were a few torches built into the wall every few places, it was not very bright.
Everything around is quiet, and the occasional sound of water droplets can be heard.
His refined eyes swept through the cells everywhere, and the person he was looking for was difficult to find for a long time, but it was not the first confusion in his heart at this moment, what made him puzzled was that he had walked through more than a dozen cells, each of which was empty, and what was even stranger was that even the guards were gone.
The smell of fish in the air was fresh, and it was judged that these cells were kept before he arrived, so where did these people go?
His train of thought suddenly reminded him of the deep and shallow carriage marks left along the way...... Could it be that all the prisoners in prison have been taken away? If so, where should they go?
The two-way firm and persistent eyes also revealed a trace of unspeakable worry at this moment.
When I walked to the three-way intersection, I stopped and listened, and finally got a clue. Suddenly, he tightened his grip on the halberd in his hand and headed towards the end of a dark passage.
"Whoβhow dare you trespass in a prison for the deadβ"
"What about the prisoners who were in this prison!"
Rampant but a few Mocang soldiers surrendered to the power of the halberd, and the brazier was small, emitting a golden light, illuminating their side faces flickering.
"Back to Lord Hui, a few hours ago, they were taken by carriage to Yuhuatai by the Qinhuai River, and the monarch at the founding ceremony wanted to take their blood to open the light and sacrifice to the heavens......"
"What did you sayβ"
Startled by the voice that quickly forced out overhead, a soldier immediately whispered: "Isn't there still some ......?"
The two soldiers muttered, looking secretive. His piercing eyes approached, as if sensing something. "Are you an enemy?"
"Yes!" "It's not!"
Two words jumped out of their mouths at the same time.
I didn't have time to listen to their tricks, so I pressed the halberd that pressed against their back even tighter, and finally got a decent answer. "Yes, yes, yes, yes, enemies, enemies!"
"If you are an enemy, why do you want to pretend to be a wind man!"
"This ...... We're also here to protect ourselves......"
Although the crown prince blocked Julong City in advance, they didn't know anything about the situation outside the city, and everyone was terrified, after all, no one knew how this day would change.
He had a stern look in his eyes, not joking with them in the slightest. "Let me ask you, is there a princess in this prison?"
"Princess ???" The two soldiers immediately looked at each other with a blank look. Panicked by the question, a soldier replied in a low voice: "Go back to your lordship...... There are no princesses......
If you haven't seen a human face, you can feel how cold the gaze above your head is. Sooner or later, the other soldier rolled his eyes and thought of a clever plan: "Yes...... Such an important person is locked up in prison on the east corner, right on the east corner! β
Looking in the direction the soldier had pointed out, something seemed to be beating in the boundless darkness, and he heard his own heartbeat......
It's clear that we're about to meet, why are you hesitating to follow?
His eyes drooped slightly, inexplicably moist.
"Oh-"
With a hoarse scream, his limbs were tightly tightened by the four chains, and he was confined in the prison in the shape of the word "big", and the feeling of tearing his muscles and bones spread throughout his body for a long time...... In the dim afterglow, a Li Sang soldier said with a chuckle while smelting the iron in his hand: "It is said that you are the personal servant of the monarch of the previous dynasty and the big red man in the palace, but it is a pity that you have been in Hedong for thirty years and Hexi for thirty years, I didn't expect that one day you would fall into my hands!" β
It wasn't until the iron was red enough that he lifted it from the brazier. Walked sideways in front of the warm boiled water, stared at the iron scorching that was constantly emitting heat, and the corners of his mouth slowly hooked: "How can people not bow their heads under the eaves!" I advise you to get rid of the stinky problems of pampering and pampering left over from the previous dynasty as soon as possible! After all! The world has changed! Sooner or later, the prince will have to sit on that dragon chair! You'd better loosen your mouth as soon as possible and hand over what the prince wants, so as to avoid the pain of these flesh and skin! β
Seeing that the red-hot iron was about to approach inch by inch, the boiled water hissed, "Don't-don't-"
The shackles in his hands were thrown crisply, but they could not escape the shackles.
"Oh-"
I thought that I was going to be tortured to death by the people sent by Prince Li Sang, but unexpectedly, the person in front of me was suddenly hit by a halberd that fell from the sky, and the corpse fell down without a sound.
Wen Shui suddenly raised his head, only to see a person walking outside the prison.
The man was covered with silver armor, his sideburns were like knife cuts, his beard was scattered, and his eyebrows were covered with the desolation of the desert smoke, which was no longer the appearance of his youth.
Only those eyes have not changed, and they always shine with awe-inspiring light, which is a rare perseverance and perseverance in the world.
"Guard-General!"
His old eyes trembled, and a name came out of his mouth!
Neither of them dared to believe that the goodbye outside Qinhuai City eighteen years ago had changed the situation, and it was a earth-shaking change!
"It is rumored in and outside the city that the main general of the Triumphant Army, Wei Kaixuan, was killed in battle, but who knows that my god of war Li Sang is not dead! He's back! β187
The voice of the boiled water is very low, and the sad tone is also the joy that cannot be concealed, it is the joy of reunion after a long absence, and it is also the joy of seeing the light of day!
"It's too late for the end...... his words were full of self-blame, and he asked with concern: "How has my father-in-law been doing all these years?" β
The boiled water shook his head lightly, and smiled lonely, which was the helplessness of the precipitation of the years.
"When people get old, the country perishes, everything changes!"
Although there is a lot of helplessness, but after all, it is lucky, I thought that this increasingly withering capital city has no familiar scenery at all, I never thought that at this critical juncture, I can also join hands with the old people of the previous dynasty to remember the past, yes, it is always lucky......
This sigh, some emotions are always difficult to let go. Neither of them spoke again, in the face of the country's ruin, family and death, no one is destined to be able to easily get out of this sadness of the change of years.
"Father-in-law." Suppressing all kinds of uncertain emotions, Wei Kaixuan couldn't help asking: "She, is she back too!" β
The four eyes in the scorching fire are facing each other, one is like a stream, and the other is slowly gloomy......
In Yangchun Palace, candles were lit one after another.
He gently rested the silver helmet he was holding in his arms on the desk, and then slowly sat down on the steps against the case, guarding a large open box beside him.
"On the eve of the Mocang Fengguo raising troops to Qinhuai, the Mocang Emperor ordered the King of Mocang to send the princess back to Qinhuai in a carriage used to carry death row prisoners. After learning of this, the first emperor was furious and angrily ordered a crusade against the king of Mocangchang. On the grounds that Li Sang had broken the peace alliance, the Mocangfeng people announced to the world that the Mocang Wind Country had conquered Li Sang's enemy. The Wind Man's ruse succeeded, but the princess was implicated. The army that went out of the city to fight against the king of Chang did not find out the whereabouts of the princess, and according to what the local people saw, the king of Mocang Chang did drive the carriage into the city, but the carriage was never seen again. Later, the battle between Mocang and Li Sang began, and the news of the princess was completely gone......"
"Before his death, the emperor instructed the old slave to find the princess, and the old slave secretly sent people to search for the entire Qinhuai many times, but each time the search was fruitless."
The curtain covered the scorching red light, illuminating the lonely hall movingly, and all kinds of emotions fluttered everywhere......
He looked at the fiery red wedding dress in his hand for a long time, and his eyes were warm......
The maid in Tsing Yi walked like a flyaway, and as soon as she got out of the hall, her head hit a bumpy thing, like a sharp weapon, a little painful, "Hiss-"
She frowned slightly, and after being very sad, she raised her head stubbornly: "Guard-General!" β
"Shhhhhh
"Xiaorou, what's wrong?"
At this moment, the crisp voice flew out of the hall like a thrush.
Seeing the general's eyes, Xiaorou turned around and raised her voice to respond to the princess: "Uh-it's okay!" It's okay! The slave is gone! β
Seeing Xiao Rou smiling like a flower, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but flow a faint smile, as if everything was under control.
"Damn it, the slave and maid collided with the general......"
"It doesn't matter."
Xiao Rou was delighted. Seeing the uniform in front of him, it was obvious that the general had climbed the Golden Palace to return to the city from Xiran's fight against the enemy, and the silver armor on his body had not had time to be replaced.
was immersed in joy, and when she saw the general about to enter the hall, she immediately took a step back, and stretched out her arms: "General...... The palace rules are strict, you ...... No entry. β
To be precise, it shouldn't be in the harem.
Suddenly, shocked by the eyes that had no majesty but had to surrender, Xiao Rou silently took the silver helmet he handed over, and then silently retreated, and finally attracted a few clever girls to look at the wind.
With a satisfied expression on his face, he gently lifted the curtain......
"Why haven't you left yet?" Hearing Xiao Rou's footsteps behind her again, she was bowing down in front of the case to inspect the wedding dress, vacated the space and asked.
Obviously, her attention was completely focused on the brightness, and she didn't notice herself in the slightest.
"Don't go, never go again." His magnetic, delicate voice sounded faintly.
was frightened in his heart, but his slightly raised waist was instantly hugged by him from behind, which was unforgettable gentleness......
"If you don't go, you have to go, the great god on the dragon throne of Gai Ming'er has drafted a holy decree and sent it to your house, and this army will have to set off again!" She answered calmly, pretending to be indifferent and continuing to straighten the wedding dress.
"Did I curse me as soon as I came back?" The palm of his hand held two small white hands, pulled her to his side, stretched out his hand and pinched the tip of her nose, "What, you just want me to go?" β
She lowered her eyes, pursed the corners of her mouth, and said lightly: "Everyone says that it is Li Sang's god of war, destined to protect the world......"
"In this life, you are the only one who protects you."
He hugged her tightly, spraying his breath on his ears and neck, and leaned over to look with interest at the woman's cheeks, which were gradually reddening, and his eyes were full of pampering.
She subconsciously wanted to break away, but his voice was full of tenderness, making people reluctant to leave, and just wanted to be tied to his chest like this, for the rest of her life.
The doors and windows everywhere were firmly sealed, and the leaking breeze blew lightly, stroking the candle flame on the case, blowing the golden fire light flickering brightly and dimly, but the wedding dress in his hand always shone in this darkness.
The golden thread, the fire phoenix, like the moon, will remain unchanged for ten thousand years!
