Volume 1: Young Ambition, Emerging Chapter 117 Qingcheng's Ambition, Follow-up

Looking at the sudden scene in front of them, the seven members of the Shadow Dragon Guard were all frightened and dumbfounded, standing in place and not moving, not moving, very entangled. That sword was menacing, the sword speed was extremely fast, and the sword strength was extremely strong, not to mention the defenseless Zhenhai Hou, even if it changed to anyone present, I am afraid it would be difficult to resist. It is not difficult to see from this that Qingcheng has the heart of killing.

That's right, among the people present, there is only one person with such skills, Qingcheng is the only one. What Wu Han and the others were afraid of was that if Qingcheng's sword stabbed at them, they were afraid that they would become ghosts under the sword. And Qingcheng's sword did use ten percent of its strength, and with the heart of killing, he sent Zhenhaihou on the road.

"Master Hou is guilty, the crime is rebellion, but his heart can be learned, and he really shouldn't suffer from torture anymore. Since the death penalty is inevitable, Qingcheng can only send Hou Ye on the road to avoid the pain of flesh and skin. Even if Your Majesty really blames it in the future, I will never regret it! Master Hou, go all the way. ”

After Qingcheng stabbed out the sword, he looked at Zhenhaihou fixedly, without saying a word, his eyes were full of reluctance and resentment. Zhenhaihou looked at Qingcheng's expression, lowered his head and glanced at the sword inserted in his heart, and his heart was full of emotion. Qingcheng has always been Qingcheng, and if he can't watch Zhenhaihou being arrested, even if he may offend Shadow Longwei or even Emperor Hui in his heart, he has to send himself on the road with his own hands.

"Duan Shuai, your son really didn't disappoint you, he really looks like you. It's a pity that my life was buried in vain, and in the end, it even affected Qingcheng, Wu Jing is ashamed. That's it in this life, I don't have anything to do, and I don't have the ability to rehabilitate you and the Duan family, but I believe that your son will definitely be able to! Well, how many things in this world can be explained? Unexpectedly, when the Qingcheng Army said goodbye, it was the last face in this life. Duan Shuai, junior brother will take the first step, and repay your kindness for reinvention in the next life. ”

Thinking like this in his heart, Zhenhaihou slowly closed his eyes, and a tear slipped down from the corner of his eye. And these tears contain his resentment at the injustice of the world and his attachment to his family, which should be bitter. In the end, Zhenhaihou opened his eyes with a sigh of relief, looked at Qingcheng and nodded lightly, his lips moved slightly, as if he had said something.

"Thank you ......"

After speaking, the strength on Zhenhaihou's body was exhausted, and his head could no longer hold on, so he tilted down. Seeing him like this, Qingcheng knew that Zhenhaihou should have died, and sighed helplessly, and sighed in his heart: Father, what I did should be right, right?

Wu Han also saw the strangeness of Zhenhaihou, and hurriedly stepped forward to probe his snort, and couldn't help but be shocked. This time they came to Haicheng, and the task they received was to capture Zhenhaihou alive, because Emperor Hui had the intention to kill chickens and monkeys, and he couldn't let him die so easily, but halfway through the Qingcheng, they directly ended him, doesn't that mean that their mission failed?

"Stop!"

Seeing that the Marquis of Zhenhai was dead, the three of Qingcheng were about to leave, but Wu Han stopped them. Listening to his shout, Qingcheng stopped, but did not look back at him, but the wind couldn't help it, pulled out his weapon, took a few steps forward, and said angrily: "You gang of rats who have brought disaster to the country and the people, grandpa ignores you, but you come to provoke." Okay, it's just a few bed bugs, it's a big deal to kill you all, I don't think anyone knows. ”

The wind is jealous and hateful, with a straightforward personality, seeing the miserable fate of Zhenhaihou, he is already on fire, and the group of shadow dragon guards in front of him are still aggressive, so they naturally can't bear it. And listening to his words, Wu Han, who was originally in trouble, suddenly felt a chill in his back and began to regret his impulsive behavior.

Speaking of a single blast, he may not be able to take him, and if you add the remaining six Shadow Dragon Guards, even if Thunder Shadow makes a move, their chances of winning are also very great. However, at the same time as the wind spoke, Qingcheng slowly turned his head and looked at Wu Han coldly, which made him, who was originally planning to do it, frightened.

Qingcheng stared at Wu Han with cold eyes, and the murderous aura on his body locked on him unabashedly, it is not difficult to guess that as long as he dares to make a move, Qingcheng will not hesitate to kill people. And if Qingcheng made a move, then they would have no chance of winning at all.

Hurricane was right, as long as they acted neatly and slaughtered all seven of the Shadow Dragon Guard, the news might not leak out. After all, no one could have imagined that Qingcheng would come, let alone intercept and kill the forbidden army. In addition, King Guhong may not be able to thoroughly investigate this matter for Wu Han and others, not to mention that he failed to capture Zhenhaihou alive, King Guhong should also be angry, and it is inevitable that he will not send the fire to them. At that time, King Guhong's mouth was crooked, saying that it was Shadow Dragon Guard's unauthorized move, and he and Zhenhaihou were both defeated and died together, so wouldn't they die in vain?

Thinking of this, Wu Han suddenly realized that they couldn't afford to provoke the three of Qingcheng at the moment, and it was a great luck that they could escape with their whole body, how could they dare to provoke others? However, from the change in his expression, Qingcheng could also see that he was retreating, and it seemed that he didn't want to keep them, so he stopped the wind that was about to start.

"Young master!"

The wind was indignant, and he didn't understand why Qingcheng wanted to stop him, but Lei Ying seemed to understand Qingcheng's distress, and glanced at the wind and asked him not to talk too much. The wind was unwilling, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he sighed heavily in desperation, turned around and said no more.

Seeing that the wind was persuaded, Qingcheng turned his face to look at Wu Han again, and after a moment of silence, he said coldly: "I came here today just to give my friends a ride, and I don't want to cause more trouble." However, that doesn't mean I can't afford to mess with it. If you are interested, go back to your life quickly, if you really feel that it is not easy to make a difference, I can help you and send you to find the Hou Ye. ”

Qingcheng's words were straightforward, Wu Han was frightened when he heard it, and he didn't dare to make any more provocative remarks. He thought that anyway, Qingcheng's identity also had some eyebrows, even if he was guilty, he would bear it, and the Marquis of Zhenhai was dead, so why should he be stupid, it was better to get out as soon as possible. After all, he had already heard the murderous intent from Qingcheng's tone, and if he insisted on provoking again, he was afraid that it would really arouse his fire.

"We ...... Don't dare to disturb, just leave. ”

Hearing that Wu Han no longer provoked Qingcheng, the remaining six Shadow Dragon Guards also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. And seeing that they were about to leave, Qingcheng seemed to have something to say, and stopped them by opening his mouth.

"Wait."

Qingcheng's voice startled the seven Shadow Dragon Guards, they thought that the former had repented and was about to make a move, and they all became vigilant as if they were facing a great enemy. And that Wu Han was careful, and he was afraid of what he said, but in Qingcheng's tone this time, he didn't hear the murderous intention, and he was secretly glad in his heart.

"Your Excellency, what else do you have to advise?"

"In the lower section of Qingcheng, today's events are all done by me alone, and have nothing to do with others. I know that you need to have an explanation when you go back, but you remember, if the Shadow Dragon Guard wants to ask for guilt in the future, even if you come to the Dragoon to find me, but if you let me know that you dare to bite others, take the opportunity to get rid of anyone, hmph, I remember your name and appearance, and I will definitely bother you then. ”

Qingcheng's words were scary, but the request was not excessive, but it made Wu Hanneng make a difference, and hurriedly replied: "Don't dare, don't dare." We will be loyal to Your Majesty, and we will abide by the law and dare not speak unjustly. ”

"I hope so."

With that, Qingcheng glanced at Zhenhaihou again, sighed lightly after a moment of silence, turned around and left with Thunder Shadow and Wind. And seeing that Qingcheng really didn't have any difficulties for himself, Wu Han was relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zhenhai Hou is a rare loyal and good general of my Daqi, and he has such an end today, if you do more injustice in the future, then Zhenhai Hou will play today, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be the situation of you waiting for him tomorrow."

Qingcheng's persuasion sounded in his ears, and Wu Han's body trembled when he heard it, and he seemed to be frightened again. After a while, he looked around and confirmed that the three of Qingcheng had already gone away, thinking about today's events, he couldn't help but snort coldly, and said in a low voice: "Duan Qingcheng, hmph, let's see!" ”

"My lord, are we really going back like this?"

The Shadow Dragon Guard is strictly disciplined, and if the mission fails, there will inevitably be a punishment when you go back. Wu Han heard this, thought for a moment and said: "Each of us left some injuries on our bodies, and after we went back, we said that he Duan Qingcheng made a move to stop it, and we resisted desperately and were defeated, which caused the mission to fail." As for the corpse of this Zhenhai Hou, leave it to King Guhong, anyway, if you can't catch it alive, you don't need to make trouble for yourself. Remember, you've wrapped your mouth around me for today's events, understand? ”

"Whoa."

The next day, the city was broken, and the army of King Guhong entered Linhai City, but the body of Zhenhai Marquis was missing. This time, the Wanli army sent troops to quell the chaos, and the cost was not small, and when I saw the merits of the hand, but the thief head was missing, it was inevitable that there were some fly in the ointment. King Guhong naturally refused, after he discussed with Xu Lin, he actually set fire to the Zhenhai Hou Mansion, and declared that the Zhenhai Hou saw that the city was defeated and that he would inevitably suffer capital punishment and set himself on fire in the mansion.

The fire burned all night, and many people in Linhai City heard the movement and went out to see. And when they saw that it was the Zhenhai Marquis Mansion that was burning, they all spontaneously went to put out the fire. Seeing that the people were coming to add to the chaos, King Guhong naturally ordered the soldiers to stop him. The people were hopeless and sad to put out the fire, so they all knelt down towards the Zhenhai Marquis Mansion, and saw off the city guards who had devoted their lives to the benefit of Linhai City for this.

Emperor Hui was furious when he learned of this, and originally wanted to punish these people one by one, but fortunately the king of Northern Xinjiang persuaded him bitterly, so he gave up. But he decreed that Linhai City would increase taxes for three years, which could be regarded as punishment for their support for Zhenhaihou's rebellion. As a result, coupled with the losses caused by the previous Haichuan bandits, it is difficult for Linhai City to prosper and the people to live in peace. However, fortunately, Zhenhaihou has worked hard over the years to benefit Linhai, and the people finally have some savings, so they will not be unable to eat. It is precisely because of this that the people are more grateful for the good of Zhenhaihou, and they do not blame him for this incident. There are even many people who secretly set up a mourning hall for Zhenhai Hou at home, so that he can continue to burn incense.

Besides, Wu Han and the other shadow dragon guards, after they returned to Dianjing, they inevitably failed the mission and suffered capital punishment, exaggerated what Qingcheng did, and even threatened that Qingcheng was disrespectful to Emperor Hui, resentful, and dared to intercept and kill the forbidden army, which shows the heart of disobedience.

Wang Xian, the commander of the forbidden army, was furious when he heard such a statement, and asked for an order to arrest Qingcheng and discuss with Emperor Hui. However, to his surprise, Emperor Hui did not pursue Qingcheng's behavior.

Wang Xian was puzzled, and Emperor Hui explained to him: "Didn't you hear him claim that he was in the dragoon army? Hmph, you think he is righteous, but you are actually pressuring. He is telling you, and he is also telling me, that he has already served the emperor's uncle, so how can he be easily moved. Uncle Huang has always been dissatisfied with the existence of the Shadow Dragon Guard, and has repeatedly exhorted me to disband this forbidden army, if I tell the truth, Uncle Huang will definitely pursue it. At that time, the same will be gone, won't this crime be wasted? Besides, he also has some ability, now that the enemies of the Quartet are all there, and the world is undecided, he has the heart to repay his family and country, so he will give him the opportunity to make contributions first, and make the best use of it. When he loses his value, hmph, let's settle these things together. ”

When Wang Xian heard Emperor Hui's explanation, he realized that he was not not not pursuing it, but was just waiting, waiting for an opportunity to hit with one blow, so that Qingcheng and even the entire Duan family could be completely eliminated.

"Duan Qingcheng, Duan Qingcheng, I originally wanted your Duan family to live in peace for a few years, and then quietly 'leave', it can be regarded as a monarch and minister, I have rewarded you, but I don't want to, you want to disobey me. I don't want your family to appear in front of the world anymore, you want to act in a high-profile manner, make a contribution, and tell the whole world that I am wrong. Well, you don't have anything now, so there's no point in getting rid of you like this. I will play with you slowly, keep giving you hope, keep lifting you up, and when you think you are only one step away from success, I will throw you down so that you can feel what the Infernal Hell is. Hmph, I want you to know whose hands this world holds! ”

Emperor Hui didn't believe in foreign ministers, and he didn't want to reuse the people of the Duan family, even if Qingcheng was so good, he could only interpret the disgust, how could Qingcheng succeed? Of course, perhaps just as Duan Feiyan taught him and the Marquis of Zhenhai, they are for the common people of the world, the people of Li, what is the importance of fame and fortune? Nothing.

Returning to Qingcheng of the Northern Dragoons, he was always concerned about what happened to the Marquis of Zhenhai, so he told the king of Northern Xinjiang frankly and petitioned to retreat for a month to adjust his emotions. The king of Northern Xinjiang understood Qingcheng and sympathized with his subordinates, so he naturally agreed. A month later, Qingcheng, who had left the customs, had already adjusted his mentality, and immediately returned to the dragoons, doing his best to defend the territory and serve his country. Later, he also received a letter from Ouyang Lan, saying that she would soon go to the north in person to transport the supplies entrusted by the Dragoon to the Ouyang family, and the two would finally be able to meet again.

On the same day and night, in a small city in the south of Daqi, in the mansion that the Ouyang family had placed for the Duan family, Duan Feiyan came to the study, opened a secret door on the wall, and walked into a secret room inside. He opened a jar of wine, walked to the desk placed in the secret room, and said as he walked: "Old man, the foolish brother has come to see you, let's talk about the old days." ”

He walked to the desk, and under the light of the candlelight, he could see that there was actually a tablet on the table, which read: The spiritual seat of Tang Wujing, Marquis of Daqi Zhenhai......
