Chapter 399: Words of Gods and Ghosts (Part II)
After Liu Ying and Xue Fan infiltrated the Song Kingdom, they were in a long way, and they were not in a hurry to go to the Jade Capital.
Liu Ying heard many Song people talking along the way, and found that the Song people's respect and love for the young Song king had far surpassed the emotions of ordinary people dealing with a king.
In the eyes of the Song people, the young Song King Liu Jing led the two kings of Qi Wei into the urn with his own body, destroyed Qi Wei, burned the Shu Palace, and captured the King of Shu.
Tea shops and restaurants, officials, soldiers and civilians, all praised the King of Song as brave and invincible, and his wisdom is unparalleled.
In the wine shop outside the jade capital, several Song soldiers who claimed to have just gone to Chu with the king of Song not long ago were fighting with the soldiers of the city defenders stationed in the jade capital.
Song Bing, who had been to the Chu State, said with a smile: "The younger brother thought that our king really went to the Chu State for his women and daughters, but I didn't expect that our king used a trick to lure out the King of Chu Hui!" How many silver money and goods have Chu Shang defrauded our Song Kingdom over the years! King Chu Hui doesn't care, our king naturally has to take care of it. ”
The soldiers of the defending army held up the wine bowl and echoed: "What did the people who went to Shu with our king say? The king makes a move, and every game wins! ”
The shopkeeper came over to buy wine and food, and talked with the officers and soldiers: "Ladies and gentlemen, according to the small point of view, in fact, our king is also pitiful, his own daughter was imprisoned in Chu and could not come back, and his own woman became the king of Chu with great ambition. Even if our king went to Chu to pick up the mother and daughter back, judging from the small, it is human nature! ”
Another Song Bing, who had been to the Chu Kingdom, said: "What the shopkeeper said is that when I went to the Chu Kingdom with the king, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it. What's wrong with a man going to pick up his wife? Even if the woman who has changed her mind can't take it back, her daughter will always have to take it back and raise her with good food and drink. Our king has the world in mind and cares for his family, so he should really be a model for men in the world! ”
The soldiers of the garrison said, "I have two daughters in my family, who are about the same age as the daughters of our king. Their mother, originally the family told me about the family, I didn't think their mother was good, but now that I think about it, their mother cooks and washes at home every day, and she is diligent and responsible, so she can naturally raise my two daughters to be diligent and duty-bound girls. Unlike our king's daughter, who was placed in Chu to educate that woman, it's strange that she can teach her well! ”
"Hearing what you say, brother, it's no wonder that our king wants to take his daughter back to raise her! Now the king of Chu, as a woman, has a bad reputation, and as a mother, he is not allowed to reunite his family, and as a king, it is even more ridiculous! As soon as she ascended the throne, she actually asked her younger brother to lead the army to defeat the Song! ”
"Ridiculous! Who else can she rely on in Chu except her younger brother, who else can fight well? If her younger brother dies in our Song Kingdom, I am afraid that the throne of the King of Chu will change hands again. ”
"You say, that prince is known as a strong martial artist and can fight well, but how is he better than our king?"
"Do you need to ask? Our king is also strong in martial arts and can fight well! And our king is brave and strategic, a hundred times more powerful than the son who can only fight and kill! ”
The soldiers of the Song Kingdom at the adjacent table chatted enthusiastically, and Liu Ying drank all the spirits in the bowl, and his heart was full of mixed tastes.
He wanted to kill the king of Song, but he couldn't bear to let Shu'er's innocent daughter have no father. What's more, he once promised Shu'er that he would never hurt Liu Jing, the king of Song.
Shu'er, over the years, you should have had many opportunities to slash Liu Jing, but Liu Jing is still alive and well in the world. I fell off the cliff, my father-in-law died, Qi Wei died, Shu was destroyed, and even after Lin Ying died, you just sent the general to kill the Song Dynasty, and did not kill him personally. You can imagine, Shu'er, what is Liu Jing's status in your heart!
……
The autumn breeze in the White Jade Palace is exhausted, the eyes are full of gloomy, the long street is cold, and only Liu Jing, the king of the Song Dynasty, walks alone.
His father abandoned him, his mother hid from him, his grandmother deceived him, and all his thoughts and loves left him. Even the close guards he trusted since childhood went against his will!
They are all for their own country, but where do they leave him?
The Song people respect him, the world fears him, and the lovers hate him......
Only he knew that the respect of the Song people should belong to the grandmother who deceived him. The fear of the world should belong to Lin Ying, the king of Chu Hui, who is more treacherous than King Wei, and plays him in the palm of his hand. Shih Tzu literature
Shu'er, you hate me to the bone and treat me like dung, it's my fault after all. When I was a child, I shouldn't have been separated from you, leaving you to work alone. When I was young, I shouldn't have met you and didn't know you, and I shouldn't have married two women in front of you. When you need me the most, I'm always late, or I can't do anything, or even betray your trust again and again!
But...... At those times, I will do my duty as the king of Song!
How do I know that one day, for me, I will be a family not a home, a country is not a country, and I am not me!
I have no one to say all this but you. And if you don't believe me, what reason do you have to listen to me?
In front of the palace gate, Ling Fei brought in the dust, and Liu Jing said coldly: "Don't follow me anymore." With that, he jumped on his horse, ignored the rules of the city, and whipped up in the jade capital.
Ling Fei also got on his horse and chased after him, but kept his distance from Liu Jing.
The people in the city saw that the man who rode the horse at the head was extraordinary, and his face was as cold as frost, so he quickly reacted, that is, his Royal Highness the King of Song, all stopped to look, and felt that the stop was not enough, so they knelt down respectfully and saluted.
When Liu Jing rushed out of the city gate on horseback and drove past a wine shop on the outskirts of the city, the soldiers in the wine shop knew the appearance of King Song at a glance, raised their bowls and cheered: "Your Highness is mighty!" Your Highness is mighty! ”
Liu Ying and Xue Fan turned their heads to look when they heard the sound, only to see that the dust on the official road was raised by the horse's hooves, and King Song and his close guards had already traveled far away.
Xue Fan was surprised: "That's King Song?" ”
Liu Ying bowed slightly.
The soldiers of the Song Kingdom at the adjacent table were slightly drunk, their cheeks flushed, and they smiled at Xue Fan: "Little doll, looking at the world of Kyushu, who else can beat the majesty of our king?" Have you seen it, the horse that our king rides is called 'Absolute Dust', the sword that our king wears is called 'Lone Walk', and the piano played by our king is called 'Dome Rhyme'. Isn't the king very tasteful? ”
Xue Fan turned his head and responded: "Yes, yes, our king does have outstanding taste and extraordinary aura!" Then he turned his back to the high-drinking soldier and made a vomit-like grimace at Liu Ying.
Liu Ying glanced at Xue Fan calmly, raised the bowl to pay tribute to the soldiers of the Song Kingdom at the adjacent table, and drank the wine in the bowl.
……
Liu Jing kept going and ran all the way to the Song State Prison.
Ling Fei dismounted to keep up with Liu Jing's footsteps, Liu Jing turned his head and looked at him coldly, and Ling Fei had no choice but to stop outside the prison.
The prison guards suddenly saw King Song arrive, and they all knelt on the ground one by one, but King Song ignored him and walked straight to an empty cell full of torture instruments.
He clearly remembered that Shu'er was imprisoned here as a female general of the Qi State. Because he was late, the jailer had already tortured her. The soles of her feet were branded as "Song prisoners" and soaked in salt water, leaving scars that can never be erased. Her wrist was shallowly slashed, and she was blindfolded during the blood-dripping punishment, and she could probably only hear the sound of her own life slowly passing away. There are three deep whip marks on her body, which also cannot be erased......
In the silent prison, the imperial decree of Liu Jing, the king of Song, echoed: "Someone is coming, ......"
After a long time, there was a "bang" sound from the distant cell, and the whipping sound was heard, but there was no shouting. In the end, tick, tick, it seemed to be leaking rain, and it seemed to be a bloody torture that had not been used in Song Guotian's prison for many years.
The new jailer knelt on the ground and asked the older jailer softly, "Our king has come in person, I don't know which prisoner he is here to interrogate?" ”
The older jailer was also puzzled: "I don't know. ”
