Chapter 39: Waiting for Death

If Yu Tianjun held on for a while, Du Xiaomeng would be pinched by him, but at the last moment, he suddenly let go of his hand.

Unexpectedly regaining her freedom, Du Xiaomeng's face turned pale and she coughed and gasped for breath. Yu Tianjun squatted down and pinched her face to force her to raise her head, with a grim sneer on her face, and said, "What a with sharp teeth and sharp teeth!" Do you think that you can make this king give you a happy break by using the agitation method? You have already drunk the poison, and you will die of poison in twelve hours, so why should this king have his hands soiled by a? ”

Du Xiaomeng couldn't speak before he could breathe, so he could only glare at him angrily.

Yu Tianjun was very satisfied with Du Xiaomeng's expression at this time. He swept away the remaining anger on his face, and the hand holding Du Xiaomeng's face increased a little harder, and said: "Before King Rui knelt down and reluctantly surrendered and begged for mercy, your cheap life still has the value of existence." If he surrenders obediently, the king will be able to let him see you one last time; If he dares to play any tricks, you can only wait here to die of poison, and you will never have the chance to see your lover again in this life. The king promises that no one will know that you are dead here, and no one will come to collect your body. ”

After that, Yu Tianjun let go of Du Xiaomeng's face, stood up, turned around and walked out.

He closed the broken door, and as he walked farther and farther, the silence grew around him, so quiet that he could no longer hear anything but his own rapid breathing.

It took a while for Du Xiaomeng to regain her breath. When Yu Tianjun started just now, she didn't have any strength left, her neck, face, and throat were all hot and painful, and she didn't need to look at it to know that she must have left a series of finger marks. She tried to struggle, but Yu Tianjun tied the rope very tightly, and the dilapidated broken bed was unexpectedly heavy, and she struggled in vain for a while, to no avail.

Reluctantly giving up the plan to break free from the rope and run out, Du Xiaomeng sighed, raised her head to look at the broken window with peeling window paper, and found that the sky that had darkened didn't know when it was snowing.

It's snowing again.

Looking at the snow flying all over the window outside the window, Du Xiaomeng suddenly remembered the first snow not long ago, in that first snow, Zhan Qi once said to her fiercely, "Come in, don't get cold"; On the night of the first snowfall, Yu Tianzheng gently said to her, "No matter how long, I will wait for you."

The words she had heard were clearly reproduced and intertwined in her mind at this time, but the two people who said that to her were not by her side now.

In the end, is it still the only one who is alone like before?

Alone and unsupported, trapped in this horribly still place, waiting to be taken to a prison to be abused or poisoned to death. Helpless to wait for death, this mentality of waiting for death gradually caused a feeling of despair to breed from the bottom of my heart, and soon spread to the whole body.

Surrounded by despair, Du Xiaomeng felt very cold, that kind of cold seeped out of the bone marrow, and seeped into ice slag in all internal organs. It's uncomfortably cold, but I can't even do the simple action of hugging myself with my own hands.

didn't want to die in this place like this, Du Xiaomeng shouted unwillingly: "Help! Is there anyone? Help me! ”

She shouted so hard that she couldn't scream at the same time. Tired of shouting, shouting hoarsely, Du Xiaomeng leaned her head on the foot of the bed weakly, looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the broken window and was stunned.

The snow sprinkled outside the window quickly covered the footprints left by Du Xiaomeng and Yu Tianjun on the road they walked just now, and there were no traces of anyone walking through. The sky was completely dark, and the dilapidated courtyard where Du Xiaomeng was locked was covered by the vast snow and night, like a dying old man who could not see the slightest vitality, and there was a dead silence.

At night, Shangguan Hong's team escorted Yu Tianzheng and his guards back to the capital.

Shangguan Hong's carriage and the carriage carrying Yu Tianzheng drove directly into the palace by the front and rear escorts of the army; Shangguan Hong personally escorted Yu Tianzheng, who was dressed in chains, to see Yu Tianjun, and Yu Tianzheng's guards were escorted by other soldiers and sent directly to the prison.
