Shen Tuluo did not accept the title of marquis, Long Tai smiled faintly, but Qi Ning also smiled and said: "It is not easy for me to be a marquis in Da Chu, the emperor is mighty, does General Shen think that the marquis is not worthy of you?" ”

Shen Tuluo was about to speak, but Duan Shao had already said: "Since it is a gift from the emperor, General Shen will receive it." ”

Shentuluo's lips moved, but he didn't speak.

"I heard that Ling Huxu is stationed in Puyang." The emperor stared at Duan Shao and said, "I wonder how the Marquis of Changle is going to deal with this matter?" ”

A smile appeared on Duan Shao's lips and said, "Does the emperor want me to lobby Ling Huxu?" ”

"I won't force you." Long Tai said: "It's just that Ling Huxu and his soldiers are trapped in the lonely city, if it is not solved for a long time, their fate will definitely not be very good." He didn't say much, and said, "King Yiheng, you send them out of the palace!" ”

Qi Ning got up, Duan Shao wanted to speak and stopped, but finally didn't say much.

Qi Ning sent the two out of the palace gate, but there were people from the Shenhou Mansion waiting outside the palace.

After Duan Shao and Shen Tuluo were found in the Huainan Palace, they were taken back by the people of the Shenhou Mansion, but they were not imprisoned, and let them live in the single courtyard of the Shenhou Mansion, but they were also quite taken care of.

Han Tianxiao saw Qi Ning accompanying the two of them out, and immediately stepped forward to give his hand, Qi Ning had already said with a smile: "Third Senior Brother! ”

"How is the prince's injury?" Han Tianxiao asked.

Qi Ning smiled: "It's no big deal." ”

Only then did Han Tianxiao say to Duan Shao: "The emperor has decreed that a new place to live for the two of them will be arranged, and the two of them will be sent over!" After calling the carriage, Duan Shao got into the carriage without saying a word, Shen Tuluo rode a horse, Han Tianxiao said goodbye to Qi Ning, and then took someone to send Duan Shao away.

Qi Ning entered the palace today, and the emperor did not talk about state affairs, knowing that the emperor saw that his injuries had not healed, so he didn't want to make himself too tired.

Today's emperor's true feelings are revealed, but it also makes Qi Ning quite emotional, but Qi Ning always feels that the emperor seems to have something to say, and the emperor has said several times that even if there are any changes in the future, don't fail each other, this seems to be casual, but Qi Ning always feels that there is something in the words.

However, the emperor's mind was not completely guessed after all, and he did not go back to the house directly, but took a car to the beggar gang to divide the rudder.

Han Tianxiao sent Duan Shao to a secluded street, and stopped in front of a house that was not too big, but there were already soldiers from the Tiger God Camp guarding the house, Duan Shao got out of the carriage, glanced around, and did not speak, Han Tianxiao said: "From today on, the two of them will temporarily live here, the guards here will protect the safety of the two, there are servants in the house, if there is any need, the two of them will command." "Arching his hand, he actually led people away.

Duan Shao entered the courtyard, the house was cleaned up and cleaned, four male servants and four maids were waiting in the courtyard, and when they saw Duan Shao and Shen Tuluo coming in, they all knelt down and saluted, Duan Shao didn't look at it, and went straight to the lobby, Shen Tuluo followed, Duan Shao walked to the table and sat down, his face was ugly, and he slammed his fist on the table, Shen Tuluo understood Duan Shao's mood, and he didn't say much, and the countryman in front of the door ordered: "Send a pot of tea!" Only then did he walk to the table, sat down opposite Duan Shao, groaned slightly, and finally said: "Your Highness, so far, there is no power to return to the sky, and the wish of the Great Qi to restore the country is only afraid that it will be difficult to realize." ”

Duan Shao sneered: "This palace naturally knows. Longtai deceived people so much that it was .......! Gritting his teeth, he immediately said: "There are guards all around, and we can't go out if we want to, let alone restore the country?" He was irritable and couldn't help but say: "This palace thought that Moying had some clever means, but it turned out to be ......!" He didn't continue, but he looked annoyed.

Shen Tu Luo groaned slightly, and then said: "This is all the minister's fault." At first, the minister thought that Moying really had some way to turn things around, so he was arrested, and the minister ...... Should have died on board! ”

Duan Shao said: "Most of the Metropolitan Governor Mo Duoxin, this palace doesn't blame you. ”

"Your Highness is generous, but the minister's sin is indeed unforgivable." Shen Tuluo sighed: "My Great Qi Sailor is under the command of the minister, not only failed to block Huaishui, but also because of negligence, the Great Qi Sailor was almost wiped out, such a big crime, there is no forgiveness." ”

At this time, a maid brought tea over, Shen Tuluo took the tea in the past, Duan Shao looked at Shen Tuluo's thick back, and he was also gloomy, knowing that now in this Great Chu Capital, in addition to the queen in the palace, the only reliance is Shen Tuluo.

The queen lives in the palace, and she may not have a chance to see it, so she can only rely on Shen Tuluo for her life.

Shen Tuluo took the teapot, seemed to be thinking about something, and finally turned around, put the teacup on the table, poured tea for both teacups, and then said: "Ling Hu Xiang is in Puyang, the situation over there, Ling Hu Xiang is the most clear, where to go, Ling Hu Xiang will carefully weigh it, if His Highness goes to the letter, Ling Hu Xiang obeys His Royal Highness's orders, it may disrupt Ling Hu Xiang's steps, and even bring disaster to tens of thousands of soldiers in Puyang." ”

Duan Shao frowned, and said with a little unhappiness: "The palace did not promise to send a letter to Ling Huxiang. ”

"Qi Ning asked the minister to send a letter to Linghu Xiang before, and the minister did write a letter himself, although it seems to be lobbying, but the letter contains a mystery, others can't understand it, but Linghu Xiang can see it clearly." Shen Tuluo said slowly: "The minister told him that he would judge the situation and choose his own path. ”

Duan Shao sighed: "If we can go to Puyang to meet them, there may not be no way out. ”

"Your Highness, Puyang is the ground of the Han people, and it is impossible for the people there to submit to us." Shen Tuluo sighed: "And the Han people will not let us become a climate in Puyang. ”

Duan Shao looked depressed, and said helplessly: "Metropolitan Governor, could it be that we are waiting here for death?" ”

"Today, Longtai has given His Royal Highness the title of waiting, which is already an extremely insulting thing." Shen Tu Luo said: "The minister is only worried, this is just the beginning, His Highness has now become his fish on the board, life and death are completely under his control, His Royal Highness is the prince of Great Qi, and he should not be humiliated by this." ”

Duan Shao frowned and said: "There was a rebellion here just now, and Longtai's killing intent has not disappeared, if he really angers him today, he is only afraid that he will really ......!" ”

Shen Tuluo laughed, picked up the teacup, drank it all, put down the teacup, wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, and said: "Since he is a marquis, he will send someone to send it soon, and the minister is a courtier of His Royal Highness, and it is impossible to accept his marquis's award, otherwise it will be a great disrespect to His Highness." ”

"What can we do now?" Duan Shao said: "Do you want to disobey his will?" ”

Shen Tuluo said with a smile: "The minister has survived so far, and he just wants to recover the Great Qi with His Highness, but the matter has come to this point, and he is powerless to return to the sky, and the minister is right."

Your Highness said that it was useless. ”

"The Grand Governor must not say that." Duan Shao thought for a moment before he said, "There is still a glimmer of life, has the Metropolitan Governor forgotten..... National teacher? ”

Shen Tuluo shook his head and said: "Your Highness, although the Lord of the East China Sea Island has been canonized as a national teacher, he has never asked about state affairs, no matter whether he has the heart to restore the country or not, it is impossible for him to stand up and help His Highness restore the country." Chu State still has Beigong Liancheng, once he makes a move, Beigong Liancheng will not sit idly by, so there is no need to count on that national teacher. ”

Duan Shao knew that what Shen Tu Luo said was true, the only glimmer of hope in his heart was suddenly shattered, and he was even more irritable, he reached out to take the teacup, but before he touched it, Shen Tu Luo had already stretched out his hand and pressed Duan Shao's wrist, Duan Shao was stunned, of course this action was very rude, although he was a prisoner of the order, but Shen Tu Luo was respectful to himself from beginning to end, at this time, Duan Shao was a little surprised, but he saw Shen Tu Luo shaking his head slightly, and said: "Your Highness, do you want to drink this cup of tea, think twice..... act!" Before the words fell, Duan Shao was shocked to find that the corners of Shen Tuluo's mouth were overflowing with blood.

Duan Shao was taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "Metropolitan Governor, you ......!" Suddenly realized something, staring at the teapot: "Poison in tea?" They..... Are they going to poison us? ”

Shen Tuluo shook his head and said, "The minister poisoned the teapot just now, not by them. ”

Duan Shao exclaimed, "Why are you doing this? ”

"The minister is a military general, and he should have died on the battlefield, but he has survived so far, and he is already extremely ashamed." Shen Tuluo withdrew his hand: "The minister will never let the people of Chu play in the palm of his hand, the Shen family is favored by the emperor, and if he dies today, it can be regarded as a reward for the great Qi.....!" Suddenly, there was a "wow" sound, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, but the body had fallen backwards.

Duan Shaofei stepped forward, only to see that Shen Tuluo's face was already blue, and he wanted to pick up Shen Tuluo, but Shen Tuluo said sharply: "Your Highness, don't touch it, be careful.......!" Frightened, Duan Shao retracted his hand.

"If Your Highness is ..... If you only seek peace, you will ..... in the future It is inevitable that you will be wronged in the future, and you will ..... No longer be faithful, Your Highness..... Don't blame .....! Shen Tuluo's breath was short, and between his breaths, blood gushed out of his mouth: "But if it's unbearable..... It's humiliating, it's ...... Drink this cup of tea ......! ”

Duan Shao clenched his fists, trembling all over, and actually cried: "You..... What's ..... this!"

"Your Highness..... Take care ......! Shen Tuluo sighed, tilted his head, and died.

Duan Shao stared blankly at Shen Tuluo's corpse and was silent for a long time.

He knew that Shen Tu Luo had a straight temperament, and it must be unbearable to be humiliated when he entered the palace today, and the most important thing was that the palace would soon send someone to send a formal will to give the seal, if Shen Tu Luo accepted it, then he would be on an equal footing with Duan Shao, which of course Shen Tu Luo would never accept, but if he did not obey the will, it was likely to bring great trouble, and Shen Tu Luo's death was actually to avoid putting Duan Shao in trouble.

Duan Shao stood up, went over to pick up his teacup, was silent for a while, and leaned to his mouth, but his eyes looked at Shen Tuluo's already blue corpse, between life and death, Duan Shao really didn't have the courage to drink this cup of tea, he screamed "ah", and slammed the teacup on the ground, the teacup shattered, and the tea splashed all over the ground.
