Chapter 45: Kill them all

Shi Ran slowly stood up, dusted off the dust that didn't exist on his body, and was indifferent from his temperament to his demeanor, "I don't want to." ”

The jade Ruyi in her hand fell to the ground all of a sudden, fell on the stone platform, and broke off in the middle.

Everyone was watching this, and they heard Shi Ran's cold and cruel words clearly. There was a "buzzing" discussion in her ears, and the sound of her brother opening the case.

Lian Zhi'er's eyes were very sour, but the tears still didn't fall, why? Why did he repent? Why don't you want her, obviously he promised it!

"I knew you wouldn't agree, I was making fun of you." Her face was full of smiles, but there were tears in her eyes, but her tone was so cheerful, "You are a lifeless person, do you want this county lord to suffocate to death in the future?!" ”

At this time, Lian Shuo had already walked over angrily, his eyes were bloodshot, and he just wanted to punch Shi Ran to death.

When he saw his sister say this, his face was full of suspicion, "Zhi'er, you really think so, if he makes you sad, my brother will poke a few transparent holes in his body to make amends for you." ”

Lian Zhi'er's gaze fell on his father in the distance, although he did not speak, but the enamel gold cup in his hand had been flattened by him. She knew that her father's wrath would cause rivers of blood.

She leaned over and picked up the broken jade Ruyi on the ground, and the sharp edge of the crack pierced into her skin, and it hurt like a pinprick.

"These sons and buddies in Beijing are just some embroidered pillows, what's so good. On the contrary, it is not as brave and mighty as our men in Beiliang. Her gaze fell on Shi Ran's face, and no matter how cheerful her tone was, she couldn't hide the despair in her heart, "I won't marry Shi Ran!" ”

************

What was originally a farce of choosing a husband for the county lord ended hastily, and Lian Zhi'er fell ill that night, and she was very sick.

She was hot all over, and she was even more unconscious, only occasionally waking up in a daze, tears sliding down the corners of her eyes, and making a "woo woo" sound in her throat, as if she was crying.

The couple of Beiliang Wang stayed by her side and did not dare to leave for a moment. Princess Beiliang cried even more tears, and only accused King Beiliang of saying, "It's all your nonsense, what husband did you choose for her, and now she is sick, but how can she be good?" ”

Seeing his daughter like this, King Beiliang was also very annoyed.

And at this moment, Lian Zhi'er slowly opened his eyes.

The two of them hurriedly surrounded her, only asking her what she wanted, or what she wanted to eat. Lian Zhi'er rolled her eyes, barely gaining a little energy, and muttered after a long time, "Father, let's go back to Beiliang." ”

King Beiliang stretched out his hand and stroked her hot cheeks, a bright and bright woman turned out to be sick now, maybe she shouldn't have taken her to Beijing, "Okay, Daddy will take you home." ”

In the Jinluan Palace, the little emperor sat on the dragon chair in an orderly manner, looking at His Royal Highness's ministers with a pair of dark eyes, sometimes showing panic and sometimes showing curiosity.

In the end, his eyes kept turning on Shi Ran and Ruan Lu, and he really had a love for beauty, among the courtiers in this room, these two stood out the most, as if even he couldn't tell the difference.

At this time, the Queen Mother was sitting next to the little emperor, although she was blocked with a veil, but she saw that she was supporting her weak body to support today's situation.

"Everyone, Aiqing, today the king of Beiliang wants to resign and return to Beiliang."

Hearing this, the ministers under the court exploded all of a sudden, if it weren't for the Jinluan Palace, they were afraid that they would clap their hands and celebrate, and they wept bitterly.

The tiger wolves in Beiliang who are stationed in the rank of majesty are going to leave after all, and they don't have to tremble anymore and live a day of licking blood on the tip of the knife every day.

"But the king of Beiliang wants us to take out 10 million taels of silver as military salary." The Queen Mother let out a long sigh, "How should this be?" ”

Ten million taels, this King of Beiliang can really open his mouth, and the joy on the faces of those ministers has not yet faded, so they began to look sad again, sighing loudly.

This mountain of piles of silver is difficult to get out in the peaceful and prosperous era, and just after the rebellion of the vassal king, the people of Beiliang often loot in the treasury of the palace, how can they take out so much silver?!

And at this moment, I saw Ruan Lu walking out of the crowd and kneeling on one knee, "Please also ask the Empress Dowager to make a decree and allow the Beiliang people to loot the wealthy families of merchants in Beijing." ”

only heard this, but everyone was dumbfounded, and for a while, the court was like a market, and there was a lot of trouble.

But Shi Dye did not say a word from beginning to end, and looked indifferent to the world.

Finally, the Queen Mother came from behind the curtain with a somewhat weak voice, "That's it." ”

Although the courtiers had opponents, they still focused on the overall situation, and if the soldiers and horses of Beiliang did not leave, the court would not be at peace for a moment.

After the ministers withdrew from the court, the Queen Mother only left a few of her confidants to discuss the matter.

In the palace of Sensen, even the sound of the caged birds flapping their wings can be heard clearly, and in the golden splendor, the depression is almost suffocating.

In a quiet courtyard in the harem, the queen and the eldest princess sat on two chairs in the palace, and standing in the room were the Shi family father and son, as well as the Yan Hou father and son.

Several people discussed for a few hours with solemn expressions, and finally the Queen Mother rubbed her sore shoulders and slowly stood up.

"If it doesn't work out tomorrow, then the King of Beiliang will definitely be reversed, let's take Jiangshan Sheji to make a bet."

Shi Taifu said, "You must not let the father and son of the king of Beiliang go back to Beiliang, and take away these gold and silver, it is tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, and the Central Plains will be like his family's garden in the future. ”

Yan Hou also sneered, "Tomorrow will either you die or I will live, after suffering the scumbags of the Beiliang people these days, it is time for them to pay the price." ”

Finally, Ruan Lu said coldly, "That's the case, why don't you kill them all, why do you want to let the princess and the county lord of Beiliang leave?" ”

"How can the 100,000 iron cavalry of Beiliang be killed, besides, the king of Beiliang was originally escorted when he entered Beijing, we have to remember his merits after all, and let those defeated troops have a way to live. If those Beiliang people were desperate and went on a killing spree in Beijing, wouldn't they be going to bleed? Mrs. Shi said lightly, "Let those women and children leave." ”

In the hall, Ruan Lu's gaze suddenly became cold, and he only lowered his eyes, but his gaze fell on the jade pendant on Shi Ran's waist.
