Chapter 23: Life and Death
%&*"; %&*";
Meng Hongyu pointed his sharp sword at Xiao Ziling's chest. The tone was extremely cold. There was a deep sadness hidden in the words: "What do you think...... I really don't dare to kill you?" His face was expressionless. There was not a hint of warmth on his lips. The anger in his eyes also disappeared. The eyes are cold and merciless. But there is a terrifying power.
That awe-inspiring force. It made Zi Ling so sad that even his heart was trembling. Her nose suddenly soured. Choked throat. Two lines of tears slipped from the corners of his eyes...... She slowly closed her eyes. Turn your face slightly to the side. Give Meng Hongyu a pale and weak side face. And then. said lightly: "Can die under the emperor's sword. It's also a fulfillment of love......"
Oh, yes. Sometimes. Death is not a good thing...... can die under his sword. Presumably. She has no regrets. He doesn't regret it. After all. She has long been familiar with his temper: the most beloved things (such as Jiangshan) cannot be coveted by others. The most cherished people cannot be destroyed by others. So. Let him kill her with his own hands. Destroy their lingering love with your own hands......
She closed her eyes quietly. Silently waiting for the cold blade to stab into his warm heart. However. After a long time. But there was a sharp sound of "ping pong...... She slowly opened her eyes. I saw Meng Hongyu hanging his right hand weakly. The sword in his hand has long since fallen to the ground. Under the warm light. The flickering blade of the sword reflected a hint of coldness. It's cold. gradually froze Meng Hongyu's heart. also froze Xiao Ziling's tears.
"Fight the exhibition into the prison...... Listen to the waiting place to cut ......," Meng Hongyu coldly ordered. When saying this "punishment order". Meng Hongyu's eyes looked straight at Zi Ling. He wanted to find something unusual in her face......
Really. As soon as Xiao Ziling heard that he was going to behead Zhan Zhan. Immediately frowned. Eyes full of anxiety and worry. Even the voice was much more anxious because of worry: "Your Majesty...... Please let Brother Zhan go...... The spirit of the child swears. Zi Ling and Brother Zhan are absolutely innocent."
"Hmph. Innocence." Meng Hongyu sneered. I only remember the beginning. Liu Wanruo also kept saying that she was innocent."
Liu Wanruo...... Looking at the evil and weird smile on the corner of Meng Hongyu's mouth. Xiao Ziling was in a trance...... Liu Wanruo...... Why did he suddenly mention Liu Wanruo...... Don't. He also wants to be like he did to Liu Wanruo and Chu Tian at the beginning. also gave her and Zhan Zhan to death together
Sure enough, it is "easy to change the nature of the country and difficult to change". She also thought that Meng Hongyu really loved her. Mended. Once it comes to his interests. Touching his dignity. He can turn his face and deny people in an instant. Originally. He also treats Liu Wan as a treasure. We never get tired of seeing each other. Night and night pets. Outcome. It's not ruthless to give her a glass of poisoned wine. Let her die in tears
That's it. Death is death. She has already trekked through the sea of swords, mountains and fires, experienced all the flavors of the world, and tasted the pain of red dust. Now. It's better to die, forget it, the land is so white, it's really clean.
Thereupon. She was suddenly quiet. No longer begging Meng Hongyu. No more tears to prove your innocence. and no longer expects him to be merciful for love; She just knelt quietly beside Zhan Zhan. My body stiffened. A bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. And then. Resolutely and resolutely said indifferently: "Maybe. Death. It will be the best medicine in the world. If the emperor is determined to put Brother Zhan to death. So. Ask the emperor to execute Zi Ling as well......"
Heard Zi Ling's affectionate words. Zhan Zhan couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect it. For him. Zi Ling couldn't even take his life. Even if it's out of brotherhood and sisterhood. Or maybe it's out of a confidant. Zhan Zhan is also content with Ling'er. It's really in vain that I love you so without hesitation.
Zhan Zhan's eyes were slightly filled with tears. My throat choked. In a low, hoarse voice, he said, "No. Sister Ling. You have to live well."
"Brother Zhan. Sister Ling." Meng Hongyu sneered. What a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks." Why. I heard them cry so intimately. There was a strong sense of jealousy and strong hatred in his heart.
"Nope." Zhan Zhan boldly refuted Meng Hongyu's words. Straighten your back and say loudly. We are a pair of brothers and sisters who are struggling to die."
In order to protect the child spirit. Zhan Zhan fearlessly looked directly into Meng Hongyu's gloomy eyes. Continue to say calmly: "We grew up together. I have long been like brothers and sisters...... It was Prime Minister Xiao Cheng who raised me as an adult. I have long regarded the people of the Xiao family as my relatives. For loved ones. I'm not afraid of anything......"
Hope for War. His words could make Meng Hongyu believe that he really didn't think anything wrong with Xiao Ziling. Just treat her like a sister. I hope he has something to say. can extinguish the anger in Meng Hongyu's heart. Let Xiao Ziling have a way to live.
"Like brother and sister...... Meng Hongyu continued to sneer. It's just like brother and sister. You're not really brother and sister after all. Who knows you ......"
Hearing Meng Hongyu's cold words. Xiao Ziling knows. Meng Hongyu still refused to believe her. He has always been the man who is extremely suspicious and vigilant at every turn. has not been changed in the slightest by Xiao Ziling's love. No matter how the exhibition battle is interpreted. He wouldn't believe them. Xiao Ziling's heart gradually burned. Burned into a pile of ashes. After the residual temperature. It was cold to ashes on a cold winter night.
Since. Meng Hongyu had already planted doubts in his heart. So. Why bother to explain it to him any longer. Seek his forgiveness. Zi Ling knows. Even if she and Zhan Zhan explain it a hundred times. A thousand times. Meng Hongyu still won't believe it. Since he won't believe it. Then simply break the jar and break it. Let him continue to be suspicious
Thereupon. Xiao Ziling simply interrupted Meng Hongyu's words. Said viciously: "Our innocence. Heaven and earth can be learned. The sun and the moon can be watched. If I, Xiao Ziling, have really done something that violates my conscience and women's morality. There is a god of their own who will give retribution. It's not the emperor's turn to accuse."
Really. Meng Hongyu listened to Xiao Ziling's words. I'm almost going to blow up. He slapped the table hard. Just listen to a loud "pop". It was as if there was a thunderclap in the sky. Meng Hongyu glared angrily. Furious, he yelled at Xiao Ziling, "You dare to speak to me like this. Isn't it boring?"
Xiao Ziling looked at Meng Hongyu's angry eyes expressionlessly. said coldly: "Yes...... I'm tired of it."
Meng Hongyu stepped in front of her in two or three steps. Suddenly raised his hand. Look at that stance. Seems to be going to hit her. Spanking women. It's not the first time for him. Before. He beat Liu Wanruo. Beat Liu Ruxin. also beat Su Zirong. Now even if he slaps Xiao Ziling hard. It's not unusual.
Xiao Ziling looked coldly at his raised right hand. The wide, warm palm had carefully cupped her face. He gently wiped the tears from her cheeks. He held her cold little hand tightly. Now. Or these hands. Are you going to beat her? Tears couldn't help but slip from Zi Ling's eyes......
However. His hand suddenly stopped in mid-air. Trembling slightly. Lingering ...... Looking at the tears on her cheeks. Meng Hongyu's heart hurt for a while. It hurts as if 10,000 bees have been stung at the same time. After intense pain. It's a numbness......
He hung his hand weakly. Close your eyes slowly. Took a deep breath. Try to suppress the pain and anger in your heart. And then. He tried his best to say in a calm tone: "Lu Yao. Let's take Zhan Zhan to the prison......"
Lu Yao took the order and left. Li Zhao also retreated with some interest. Only Meng Hongyu who was standing and Xiao Ziling who was kneeling were left in the room. Instantly plunged into an endless silence. There is sorrow in the silence. There is despair in grief. There is sadness in despair. There is a determination in the sorrow......
Xiao Ziling at this time. Just waiting for him to give himself an order to die. And at this time, Meng Hongyu. Just waiting for her to kowtow and beg for mercy. Give him another promise of "one couple for a lifetime". However. He was silent. She was silent. Both stubbornly waited for the other to speak first. Death or mercy......
No one spoke first to break the terrible silence...... After a long, long time. Xiao Ziling finally spoke faintly: "Your Majesty...... Why don't you give the spirit of the child a death?"
"Could it be. Do you want to die like that?" she begged for death as soon as she opened her mouth. Meng Hongyu was angry with her condensation again. He leaned down. Squeeze her chin hard. Look straight into her unfathomable eyes. His face was gloomy. The eyes are full of gloom and anger. Raised eyebrows slightly. He raised the corners of his mouth and said wickedly. So. I won't let you die. I want you to live, not death."
You can't survive and you can't die. What a "can't die" method. Xiao Ziling sneered in his heart. He also smiled back with a wicked and merciless smile. said coldly: "No one can control my life and death. Only I can choose to live or die."
"Really. No one can control your life or death." Meng Hongyu thought in his heart. but he did not open his mouth to answer her words; Just sneered. Then let go of your hand and stand up straight. He shouted coldly to the door, "Someone."
"The minions are here." Li Zhao hurriedly lowered his head and answered.
Meng Hongyu ordered Li Zhao: "From now on. Degraded Xiao Ziling to a promise. Without my permission. Xiao Ziling is not allowed to enter and leave the Xihua Hall for the rest of his life."
After saying that. Meng Hongyu turned around again. Slowly pacing to the front of the couch. Sit down. And then. He bowed his head slightly. Staring at Xiao Ziling who was kneeling on the ground. The corners of his mouth pulled out a cold and ruthless smile. Said to her meaningfully." Xiao Ziling. I want you to live well. If you're really looking for a short-sightedness. So...... I will let the people of the nine clans of the Xiao family accompany you to the funeral."
He sneered in his heart and saw if you still dare to beg for death. Let's see if you can still "control your own life and death". The one who controls your life and death. It's yourself. Or I, the emperor who rules the world
Heard Meng Hongyu's words. Xiao Ziling is like five thunderbolts. Instantly stunned, he actually threatened her with her relatives. This vile and shameless, ruthless fellow. even threatened her with her relatives
This is down. She really can't survive. I can't beg for death.
