Lowering his gaze slightly, Gu Yuancheng nodded, "Okay, let's have a good fight today, if I die in the end, you don't have to be sad for me, if ...... If you die, I will resign from my official position and build a grave for you here, and I will always be with you. ”

With a pain in my heart, I bit my lower lip tightly, and my face was almost transparent.

I didn't speak, and I had nothing to say.

"Let's do it." As soon as the sword was crossed, Gu Yuancheng looked at me quietly.

I took a deep breath, my subordinates were no longer merciful, and they attacked with a sword, and Gu Yuancheng did not fall behind, and was entangled with me.

The blade was cold, the cold light was cold, blood and death were all in this moment, countless swords sparked, and then turned into countless smoke and dust falling down in dots, between the lightning and flint, no one could see whose eyes clearly.

However, just when Gu Yuancheng and I were inseparable, the movement here finally alarmed the monster of the dense forest, the Tiger Lion Beast.

With a bloody mouth, fangs and teeth, when such a behemoth appeared in front of us, almost everyone was so shocked that they stopped moving, only me and Gu Yuancheng did not stop, and even more intensely.

The cold sword light was like a snowflake, so dazzling that almost no one present had ever seen such a cultivation swordsmanship, but no one knew the state of me and Gu Yuancheng at this time.

A full bowstring, whoever relaxes a point first, the defeat will be like a collapsed edifice, and there is no possibility of a new one.

"Roar! Roar! Roar! "I don't know if the tiger lion beast was blinded by the cold murderous aura between me and Gu Yuancheng, and he didn't look at the others, he roared, and rushed towards us with great excitement.

Gathering qi on the sword and restrained in my heart, I sank my gaze, and the whole person flipped over from the top of the tiger lion beast's head, and the long sword in my hand stood up, and instantly passed through its hair obliquely, piercing Gu Yuancheng's eyebrows.

Seeing this, Gu Yuancheng didn't retreat, he blocked the sword back, stepped on the head of the tiger lion beast under his feet, turned around and kicked my sword away.

The hair flew wildly, its head pounded the ground, and the tiger and lion beast roared in pain, and at the same time, it was also stimulated to be wild, and it opened its big mouth and pounced on me and Gu Yuancheng.

Its speed is very fast, and its momentum is also very awe-inspiring, but in the eyes of Gu Yuancheng and me, it is still too slow, so slow that we fought ten rounds around it, but it didn't even catch our figure.

Bullets, piercing, piercing, receiving, the sword light lit up in an instant, and disappeared in an instant, the sky and the sun and the moon, the wind and clouds change, time flows with the water, and it goes away, and the time in the forgetfulness is like an arrow, just one time back to the gods, the tiger lion beast has been covered in bruises, and Gu Yuancheng and I have also reached the limit of physical strength.

"Ding ——!" The long swords struck, and Gu Yuancheng and I were shocked by the force at the same time, and landed and stabbed back at the same time.

The tiger and lion beast in the middle sensed the threat of death and struggled to escape, but it seemed that a huge force froze it in place, unable to move a bit.

It's almost over.

I lowered my eyes, and the long sword in my hand pierced through the cold air and stabbed straight through the body of the tiger lion beast, while Gu Yuancheng's sword also pierced from the opposite side, straight to my heart.

"Leave people under the sword, truce!"

"Leave people under the sword, truce!"

"My emperor has a decree, truce and truce ——!"

The offensive was abrupt, and Gu Yuancheng and I stopped our movements at the same time.

His sword is only a fraction of a centimeter away from me, and my sword is only within walking distance of his.

Just one minute late, just one minute later......

The tiger lion fell between me and him, and we gathered our swords at the same time, looking straight at each other.

The wind ruffled our hairs and blew away the look in our eyes, and the forest seemed to be covered with its destruction.

"Shen Xiang!" Yang Jie, who came in a hurry, shouted out to me behind me, as if to remind me of something.

The figure moved, I lowered my eyes, and walked back reflexively, Gu Yuancheng stood behind me and looked at me, his gaze refused to take it away, as if he was waiting for a miracle that could not happen at all.

Yang Jie noticed the abnormality, frowned, and took a wrong step to block his vision.

Slightly stiff, I clenched the sword in my hand and didn't stop a single step.

"Haha......" Gu Yuancheng laughed out loud from behind, he shook his head while staggering back, and suddenly he knelt on the ground with his sword in his hand, and spit out a mouthful of blood, all desolate.

Hearing his laughter disappear, I could no longer hold the sword in my hand, and flew out, and rushed straight to the ground as if I had lost my strength.

Seeing this, Yang Jie was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to help me.

Bright red blood snaked from the corners of my lips, but I burst into tears.

"This is the last time, ...... later"

In the future, there will be no entanglements, life and death are strangers, and people are also strangers.

Yang Jie didn't understand what I was saying, he carried me back to the camp to heal my wounds, and I recuperated in the camp for three days.

The wind was strong in the wasteland, and my robe was blown to the sound of hunting, but looking up at the light gradually rising in the sky, my heart felt an indescribable sense of suddenness and relief.

Now that Qin and Qi have suffered heavy damage, after this truce, it is impossible to have large-scale disputes within a hundred years, and the Qin court has also been purged, Cen Xi is because of mourning, and he has not yet ascended the throne, and the Qin dynasty will not be chaotic.

I promised him that he had done everything, and there was no need to stay any longer, maybe wandering in the rivers and lakes was my final destination.

"Horse, horse, where do you think we should go first? Gangnam? Or Tuzhou? Why don't you go to a small country by the sea outside? I've only heard about it in books before, but I've never been there in person, which is a pity. I touched the horse's head and talked to it in a friendly voice.

"You're not allowed to go anywhere."

The ink robe flew up, his long body stood upright, his cold eyes reflected the light of the rising sun, and the end of heaven and earth slowly lit up behind him, gradually confusing my eyes. schoolgirl

I was slightly stunned, then smiled and took a few steps closer to him, "How did you come to the border?" You didn't sneak here, did you? ”

Cen Xi pursed his lips to look at me and didn't speak.

After a pause, I was stunned, "You ......"

"Come back with me." He walked towards me, his long flowing hair tangled in a pale blue headband, and the fog was like ink.

"I know you can't bear me, but there is always a parting in life, in the court, there is no need for me to exist, it's time to go." I forced a forced laugh, I don't know why, at this moment, I didn't dare to look him in the eyes.

There are so many things in his eyes that I dare not touch, and that I should not touch.

I've endured the pain of breaking my bones too many times, I really ...... Don't want to do it again.

"I need you, Qingzhi." Cen Xi stood still in front of me, and his voice softened, "Come back to me, let us create this prosperous world together." ”

I was stunned, and I subconsciously took a step back.

"If you come this time and don't let me stay, don't stop me from getting in the way." Lowering my eyes slightly, I looked at the desolate scene on the ground in a daze, and my heart was empty, and I couldn't tell what it felt.

Cen Xi looked at me for a while, and suddenly laughed in a low voice, laughing coldly, and also cold, "Shen Qingzhi, why is your heart so ruthless?" ”

I opened my mouth, speechless.

"Okay, okay, you're like this, if others don't push you, you won't take another step forward," Cen Xi didn't want to listen to my explanation at all, he took another step forward, almost sticking to my body, "I've found out where Du Rong and they are hiding, what do you think I should do next?" ”

I was stunned.

Cen Xi stepped back, patiently waiting for my answer.

My face changed and changed, and finally I went back to the capital with him.

Cen Xi is a cold-hearted and cold-faced person, as long as he wants to do it, no one can stop it, I shouldn't let Du Rong bear the pain for me anymore.

After the war, Jiang Hewei was appointed as the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, stationed outside the Saiwai, and could not return to Beijing without a recall, Yang Huaishu was promoted to the commander of the Nine Gates, responsible for the guard of Kyoto, Yang Jie also temporarily left the capital because of Yang Fuzi's resignation and returned to his hometown, before leaving, he handed over a jade box to me.

"My dad said he didn't need this thing anymore, he just hoped it could help you." Yang Jie said.

"Did the Master really say that?" Confused, I took the jade box and opened it.

"It's a gold medal for avoiding death." Yang Jie said, "My father said, you have had a relationship with His Royal Highness since you were a child, and you are stubborn, and you will be an official in the court in the future, and you will definitely do something out of the ordinary because of your past feelings, the emperor has a thin heart, he may not be able to let you go every time, with this by your side, there is a chance to choose." ”

My eyes were slightly moist, and I didn't know what to say to express my gratitude to Master Yang.

"This time, the master is right to let you retreat bravely." I turned my gaze and said, "It's not a good thing that military power and prestige are too concentrated. ”

Yang Jie smiled and said, "I know, don't worry, I'll come back, and I have to see what kind of beautiful girl you will marry in the future, right?" You are the unparalleled prime minister of our Daqin, how many boudoir daughters are the dream lovers? ”

He deliberately spoke in a relaxed tone, and the sadness of parting was indeed reduced a lot, but when it came to separation, I was still reluctant, although Yang Jie wanted to persuade me a few more words, but the next person had already come to urge, and he couldn't stay longer, so he could only pat me on the shoulder to show comfort.

Three months after the end of the war, Cen Xi was finally willing to ascend the throne as emperor, but at this time, Li Quan presented another edict from the first emperor.

The content of the edict is very simple, give me the first phase, and confess my identity as a daughter to the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, as well as ...... Give me and Cen Xi to marry, and choose the date as the queen, there must be no mistake.

Although the court officials were surprised, none of them dared to have any objections to my phase, but this family affair caught them off guard and discussed a lot.

It's not that I'm not worthy of Cen Xi or the queen, but my identity is too sensitive, and the intention of this marriage edict can be described as deep and deep.

But none of this has anything to do with me, my whole mind is a mess right now, I can't think about the deep meaning at all, and I don't want to think about it.

In this half of my life, I have almost lost in the conspiracy and power struggle of the palace, whether it is bitter or tears, I have swallowed it silently, could it be that in the days to come, do I still have to pay myself in it? What's more, Cen Xi is ...... It's time to find a girl you like to live your life.

I turned my eyes around the corner of the palace wall, and suddenly the whispers of the two ministers in the corner reached my ears.

"What do you think of this marriage given by the emperor?"

"How else can you look at it, they are all chess pieces in the hands of the first emperor, since ancient times, the phase has been high and cold, how many kings are the most taboo is the prime minister?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"The first emperor's hand is a good situation, first let Shen Xiang uproot his family and eliminate future troubles, and then let Shen Xiang solve the officials who oppose him little by little, the power is in his hands, and the last holy decree, the rear and phase will enter the royal family, and from then on, there will be no one who can shake the throne of the Cen family."

"So that's the case, then Shen Xiang ...... her"

"Pitiful, pitiful, you and I still have one day to resign and go into hiding, and Shen Xiang will ......"

"Bang dang!" The edict in my hand suddenly fell to the ground, and I didn't even have time to pick it up, and stumbled out of the palace.

It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this.

Is what I have insisted on, what I have firmly believed, just a joke?

Those who are prime ministers should be for the country and the people.

But in the eyes of the emperor, is such a firm belief just a toying and humiliation of power?

I don't believe it.

How can I believe it.
