The next day, a succession of news came to the Taiji Palace, if the first two news were expected by Yiguang, then the third news was enough to send her into the Infernal Hell.

"King Qiqi, a corpse was found near Miyagi, like a ...... Like ......" The soldier stole at the frowning husband and did not continue.

The husband urged impatiently: "Something like, say it quickly." ”

The soldier whispered, "It's like the missing Zheng Meiren!" ”

This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the sky, which made Yiguang shocked, and he couldn't care about the presence of his husband, and exclaimed: "What do you say, say it again." ”

"The corpse found near Miyagi looks very similar to Zheng Meiren." The soldier's voice clearly reached Yiguang's ears, making her eyes black for a while, her steps were soft, and when the husband saw this, he hurriedly helped her sit down and said with relief: "People are similar, it may not be the Zheng family, and there is no record of the Zheng family leaving the palace, don't worry too much." ”

Yiguang nodded carelessly, the husband didn't know, but she knew that Zheng Dan was out of the palace last night, and the corpse was ......

Yiguang forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and said, "Where is the corpse?" ”

"Outside Miyagi." Hearing the soldier's answer, Yiguang said, "King, I want to go and see." ”

The husband hesitated slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, this king will accompany you." ”

Yiguang walked quickly, but when she reached the corpse covered with a white cloth, she stopped, her legs like lead, and she couldn't get out.

She was afraid, afraid to see Zheng Dan's body......

For a long time, Yiguang took this step with difficulty, and his hands trembled as he uncovered the white cloth covering the corpse, and when the eyes were wide open, and the gray face without a trace of blood was reflected in the eyelids, Yiguang's whole body trembled.

Zheng Dan, it's really Zheng Dan!

Fucha re-covered the white cloth with an ugly face, and then hugged Yiguang's thin body, and kept comforting him: "This king is here, it's okay!" ”

Such a comfort even sounded so pale and powerless to himself......

Yiguang desperately endured the sourness that burst into his throat, gritted his teeth and said, "How did you die?" ”

The soldier reported: "The corpse had a knife wound in the lower abdomen, it should have died of excessive blood loss, and the time of death was last night." ”

Last night......

A figure passed through Yiguang's mind, could it be him?

"Has anyone seen the murderer?"

The soldier shook his head and said, "No, only the marks of the carriage passing by were found on the ground, and it is likely that they were thrown from the cart." ”

"Got it." Yiguang gritted his teeth, turned to his husband and said, "Can I ask the king for something?" ”

The husband knew what she wanted to say, and immediately said: "Don't worry, this king will find the murderer of the Zheng family and bury her alive with the gift of beauty." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yiguang endured the tears that kept pouring out of his eyes and saluted his husband, and then said, "I'm tired and want to go back and rest for a while." ”

"Okay." The husband couldn't rest assured, hurriedly confessed a few words, and accompanied Yiguang back to the small courtyard where she lived.

Along the way, Yiguang didn't say a word, and when she returned to the house, she took several kinds of herbs and grinded them into powder, and then took the cloth and cut it with scissors.

Yiguang's hands trembled very sharply, and he accidentally scratched the flesh on his hands, and red blood flowed out and stuck to the material; She didn't realize it, and continued to cut the material, but her husband was afraid that she would hurt herself again, so he hurriedly snatched the scissors from her hand, "Don't cut it." ”

"Give me back the scissors, I'm going to make a sachet for my sister, she likes the sachet I make the most, and I have to match it on my body every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, it's almost the Dragon Boat Festival, I have to make one for her quickly."

"Yiguang!" The husband held her hand to take back the scissors, and said sadly: "If you are sad, cry out, don't hold it in your heart." ”

Yiguang looked at him in a daze, and the tears that were forced back to her eyes gradually appeared, and the next moment, she fell into her husband's arms and let her voice out, her cry was full of grief, mourning, and sadness.

Over the years, in addition to his father, the closest one is Zheng Dan, although along the way, there have been all kinds of disputes, and even severed relations, but Yiguang has always cared about Zheng Dan in his heart, otherwise he would not help her escape from the palace.

Not long ago, she thought that Zheng Dan could stay away from right and wrong, stay with her beloved, and grow old together; As a result, in the blink of an eye, she saw Zheng Dan's corpse, how could she not be sad.

The husband didn't say anything, just hugged her tightly, I don't know how long it took, Yiguang stopped crying, leaned on the husband's arms and talked intermittently about the past when she and Zheng Dan were in Ramie Village, and when it came to the sad place, he choked up and said: "A war, everything has changed, the family is gone, the father is gone, and now even my sister is gone, I have nothing......"

The husband was distressed and hugged her tightly, "You still have this king, the vicissitudes of life, this king will always be by your side." ”

This sentence made Yiguang even more sad, she was a spy of the Yue Kingdom, and she approached her husband in order to restore the country...... Is it possible?

The husband didn't know what she was thinking, and seeing that she hadn't spoken, thinking that he was doubting his affection, he clenched Yiguang's hand and said word by word: "Yiguang, marry this king, be the queen of this king!" ”

Yiguang didn't expect him to mention this matter at this time, he was stunned for a while, and after coming back to his senses, he was moved and sad, shook his head and said: "The king forgot, I am a Yue girl, Wu and Yue are incompatible, how can you set up a Yue girl as the queen." ”

"Wu and Vietnam can be antagonistic or friendly." Speaking of this, Fucha seemed to have made up his mind, and said slowly in the face of Yiguang's gaze: "After this king clears Wu Zixu's forces, he will send the king of Yue back to China, and from then on, Wu and Yue will be friendly and never go to war again!" ”

Hearing this, Yiguang was both surprised and delighted, and said in disbelief: "Is this true? ”

"You have no jokes!" Hearing these four categorical words, Yiguang couldn't help but shed tears again, but this time, it was tears of joy.

The husband stroked away the tears on her face and said pityingly: "I cry when I am sad, I cry when I am happy, why do I have so many tears, and I am not afraid of crying my eyes." ”

Yiguang stopped his tears and said happily: "The king's willingness to stop fighting from now on is a blessing to the people of Wu and Yue, thank you king." ”

The husband smiled, his eyes were affectionate, "Then are you willing to marry this king now?" ”

This time, Yiguang did not refuse, her cheeks were crimson and nodded, she had already had a secret affection for her husband, but because of each other's identities and their own mission, they would refuse many times, and now the husband promised to send back Gou Jian and make friends with Yue Guo, naturally there is no reason to refuse.

Seeing the beautiful woman's head, Fucha was so happy that he almost looked up to the sky and roared, he hugged Yiguang and said the words "really good" over and over again.

Wu Rong knew about this, was heartbroken, and ran to the Queen Mother's sickbed to cry, asking the Queen Mother to stop the marriage.

That night, the Queen Mother sent her husband to Baining Palace, no one knew what they talked about, only that after this night, the Queen Mother did not stop their marriage, Wu Rong asked, the Queen Mother also kept silent, just let her break the idea of being a queen from then on, and live in the palace.

Besides, on Wen Chong's side, after he killed Zheng Dan, he quickly caught up with the exiled Gongzi Mountain, and told Zheng Dan that he was dead quickly, of course, in his mouth, Fucha and Yiguang became the murderers who killed Zheng Dan.

After hearing that Zheng Dan died quickly, Gongzishan was grief-stricken, and cried and fainted several times, and after learning the "truth", he was so sad and indignant that he swore to the sky that he would take the head of the husband and Yiguang to avenge Zheng Dan.

This is exactly what Wen Chong wanted, and he comforted him with false affection, and then said that he would try to act, and when the time was ripe, he would welcome him back to Beijing and seize the throne.

After saying goodbye to Gongzi Mountain, Wen Chong returned to Gusu, and as soon as he stepped into the mansion, someone from the palace came to pass the word, asking him to enter the palace immediately, Yiguang wanted to see him, saying that he was asking about the progress of the Guanwa Palace.

Yiguang still lived in the original courtyard, and after Wen Chong entered, he saluted respectfully, "The grass people have seen the queen and the mother, and the mother is blessed." ”

Looking at the Wen Chong who bowed his head and saluted, the cold killing intent flashed in his eyes, and the tea cup was pinched in his hand and "gurgle".

After a long time, she let go of her clenched fingers and said indifferently: "I haven't married the king yet, and Mr. Wen can't call the queen's mother." ”

"The grass people lost their words." Wen Chong smiled, straightened up and said: "The Guanwa Palace has almost been built, and it will be completed in August or October at the latest." ”

Yiguang ignored his words and said, "I sent someone to invite you three times, but I didn't see you the first two times, saying that I went out to talk about business, really?" ”

"Exactly."

Yiguang stared at him for a moment, and said in disgust: "If I guess correctly, the person who talks to you about business should be Gongzishan." ”

was pierced by her words, and Wen Chong was not panicked, and said with a smile: "The girl said that she was laughing." ”

Yiguang got up, walked slowly in front of him, and said in a cold voice: "Why do you want to kill my sister?" ”

Wen Chong pretended to be surprised and said: "The grass people have always been law-abiding, how can they do murder; Besides, Caomin and Zheng Meiren have no grievances and no hatred, what are you doing to kill her? Where did you hear all these nonsense girls? It's really wronged. ”

Yiguang said disgustedly: "You don't have to make a show here, only me and I know about my sister's departure from the palace, but as soon as you leave the palace, something will happen, who else will there be besides you!" ”

"It's true that it has nothing to do with the grass people, the girl misunderstood."

"Let me guess again, you must have reversed black and white in front of the second son, saying that my sister was killed by me and the king."

A trace of surprise flashed in Wen Chong's eyes, and then he leaned over and sat down, and said with a smile: "The girl is really ice and snow smart, no wonder the king is so fond of you." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I will tell the truth to the second son?"

Wen Chong said slowly: "The girl shouldn't be naïve to think that the second son will believe your words, right?" ”

Yiguang looked at him fixedly, for a moment, and suddenly laughed, like a blooming flower, sweeping away the previous indifference, "Wen Chong, do you really think that you can support the second prince to ascend to the throne?" ”

Wen Chong came back to his senses from Yiguang's dazzling beauty, and said with a smile: "If you don't give it a try, how do you know the result, what if Wen wins the bet?" ”

"Wishful thinking!" With these four words, a cup of hot tea splashed on Wen Chong's white and fat face, which made the latter jump up, and hurriedly raised his sleeves to wipe off the tea, although he moved quickly, he was still scalded with a large red mark, and he roared angrily: "You...... You are crazy! ”

Yiguang put down the teacup indifferently, and said coldly: "I've always liked to repay grievances with grievances, you killed my sister, I will definitely remember this account, and I will pay it back ten times in the future!" ”

Wen Chong was stared at by her and trembled in his heart, and said inwardly: "Hmph, let's see!" ”

After this small turmoil, Gusu returned to calm, and just when everyone's eyes were focused on the marriage between Fucha and Yiguang, Ailing suddenly sent an urgent report of eight hundred miles.

Wu Jun - Defeated!

It turned out that what Gongsun had burned before leaving was not the grain and grass of the Qi army, but the trap deliberately laid by the Qi army, which made Bo Yao think that he had won a complete victory, and when he took advantage of his light enemy to forget his form, he attacked in a big way, and the Wu army lost its armor and fled, and the number of casualties also increased again and again.

Seeing that the morale of the Wu army was low and the collapse was imminent, Fan Li, the overseer who fell off the cliff and disappeared, suddenly fell from the sky, not only "resurrected from the dead", but also brought thousands of elite soldiers from the Yue country to help them defeat the Qi army.

This was the first victory of the Wu army in many days, which swept away the previous slump and boosted their morale, and then under the leadership of Fan Li, they repeatedly won victories and reversed the defeat.

On June 23, after another victory, the Qi army could not withstand the losses of the troops in the past few days, coupled with the bottoming out of the grain and grass, and finally withdrew, this war that lasted for several months ended with the victory of the Wu State and the expansion of the land for hundreds of miles.

Fucha knew that this was a crushing victory, but he urgently needed a victory at this moment to stabilize the people's hearts and consolidate his throne, so he ordered the whole country to celebrate, and on the day of the triumph of the army, he brought Yiguang and a feast of hundreds of officials to entertain him.

During the banquet, Fan Li became the biggest hero, with a third-level official promotion, a bounty of 1,000 taels, and hundreds of acres of residential land.

Bo Yao is narrow-minded and dissatisfied with Fan Li's favor, but he is very deep in the city, and on the surface, he frequently touches with Fan Li and constantly congratulates.

The battle of Ailing made Fan Li a celebrity in front of his husband in one fell swoop, and in the face of everyone's congratulations, Fan Li got carried away; On the contrary, he has been humble, saying that he can win this time, because his husband is well planned and strategic, and he is just acting according to orders, and there is no credit to speak of.

Such an honor is not shocked, which undoubtedly makes the husband more and more satisfied with Fan Li, and from time to time he orders people to give his own dishes to Fan Li, which makes hundreds of officials red-eyed.

In the corner, Gongsun Li stared at Fan Li with red eyes like the stars holding the moon, and poured wine into his mouth one after another, his heart full of unwillingness and jealousy.

In the battle of Ailing, he was the one who contributed the most, and he was the hardest worker, but all the credit was taken up by Fan Li, who appeared halfway, so how could he be willing.

The more Gongsun Li thought about it, the more unwilling he became, holding a wine glass in one hand and a half-full wine jug in the other, he came to Fan Li drunkly, "General Fan is heroic and has made great achievements, come, Gongsun will give you a glass." ”
