Chapter 302: The Surviving

Chapter 302: The Surviving

On a hot day, a sudden shower of rain fell, and the slightest chill was refreshing.

The bell on the top of the West Mountain rang on time, along with the bell tower bell in the city spread all over the capital, because of the bloody battle on the shore of the Yanliu Lake some time ago, the West Mountain has been busy for a long time recently, the mass grave on the top of the mountain has been filled when the Fuhu Army mutiny, in order to bury the new corpses, the soldiers guarding the West Mountain had to pick up a shovel and pick to dig up on the peak of the West Mountain.

The theft and excavation of the graves of An Guogong and his wife was not asked about in addition to the fact that the Criminal Department sent someone to investigate it some time ago, and now the three armies have not been settled and have risen again, and this matter has also been forgotten, and the shower has made the soldiers at the foot of the mountain and the top of the mountain return to the pavilion to shelter from the rain one after another, and the defensive line that was originally ten steps and one person has become thirty steps and one person.

No one noticed, and just as the soldiers were undressed and spread their hands to enjoy the coolness of the shower, a group of embarrassed but disciplined soldiers sneaked into the defensive line and began to move towards the mountainside.

With the fear of the people of Xishan, Shen Ke and his soldiers have a different feeling for this place, the Fuhu military mutiny, the bloody battle on the shore of Yanliu Lake, all of them are closely implicated in the fate of these people on this mountain, where lies their partners, partners who can never rest in peace.

It was already a night and a half of a day's work, and Jin Yiwei searched at night, but he did not find any trace of Shen Ke and his party within the range of several checkpoints calculated by Mr. Du, and the mountains and forests had already been searched, and there was not even a living person.

Shen Ke flew like this? Mr. Du, who was so anxious, was under pressure that he was increasing day by day.

"What did the emperor say?"

"Your Majesty............" Jinyi Wei, who hurried back, glanced at Mr. Du worriedly, bowed his head and said: "The emperor said that if you can't find Shen Ke, Mr. Du doesn't have to go back!" There is another thing, due to the lack of manpower in Jinyi Wei and Dongchang, in order to protect the safety of the capital and the palace, the emperor temporarily activated the people of the Governor's Mansion to guard the palace and the city gate. ”

"The Governor's Mansion?" Mr. Du raised his eyebrows, biting the upturned peel on his lip and thinking about it, although the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is a major military force in the capital, but in order to prevent the military power from falling aside, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is big, and the palace has always been guarded by the forbidden army specially selected by the Soldiers and Horses Division of the Five Armies without being under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, but now the head of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is King Chao, and it is not surprising that the emperor can let down his guard.

………………

The green mountains and green waters meander the official roads in all directions, and the pedestrians on the summer road have been reduced by half, except for the brocade guards who are running around on the official road, there are only a few people and horses walking slowly.

The trees and flowers are dying, the pedestrians and horses are listless, and several fast horses gallop by, startling countless birds, which brings a bit of noise to this quiet official road.

Fast horses are coming from all directions, and they are going to the same place.

Although the power of the Five Cities Terracotta Division is not as good as before, they still have a certain survival capital on the ground of the capital, Jinyi Wei is the emperor's eyes planted in the light and darkness, and the Five Cities Terracotta Division is the perception before these eyes are opened, they walk day and night in the streets and alleys of this city, maintain the stability of the capital, and eliminate all disasters for the capital.

There was a fire in Chao Wang's Mansion last night, and the patrol team of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division reported to Ding Yanxiang, the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, as quickly as possible, and Ding Yanxiang, who had been suppressed by Ning Chaoge because of the marriage of the second daughter, reported to the emperor the next day after receiving the news, and revisited the incident he had suggested in previous years.

It was an eventful autumn, how could the emperor have such thoughts, and his advice to Ding Yanxiang was regarded as the wind in his ears, and after hurriedly leaving the early court, he took Ning Chaoge and Xiong Huaiyuan back to Ningyuan Palace.

Yan Liu still has no news, and the emperor is also beginning to be anxious, Yan Liu, as the number one person who investigated An Guogong's case back then, Yan Liu disappeared for so long when Shen Ke was not arrested, and he couldn't let go of his mind.

"Lord Yan is missing? Do you have a clue? Ning Chaoge added: "Yesterday, the Metropolitan Procuratorate took over the guards of the North City Gate and the West City Gate, and nothing suspicious happened. ”

"I suspect that it was done by Shen Ke's faction, and the rebellious ministers and thieves will be punished! Chaoge, you send some people to look for it in the past few days, whether it is the capital or outside the radius, look for it carefully! The emperor sighed worriedly, patted his thigh irritably and stood up: "And you have to pay close attention to the movements of the guards in various places, I always feel that they are too calm these days!" ”

"Yes!" Ning Chaoge clenched his fists and took his life.

"Books are like a sea, can I do what I let me do?" The emperor turned around with a sigh, picked up a fold on the table and looked at it.

Shu Ruhai was busy all night last night, and his spirit was a little poor today, and he reacted quickly in the past when he heard the emperor's question, he was stunned for a while before replying: "Back to the emperor, Chang Xiu has already taken His Royal Highness King Rui over!" ”

Ning Zhiyuan didn't eat or drink Du Yiyi's corpse and made a fuss, and now Yan Liu and Du Yiyi disappeared at the same time, the emperor who had planned to spare Du Yiyi in Ning Zhiyuan's face had a pimple again, and judging from the current situation, he could only wait for Yan Liu to come back. Last night, he instructed Shu Ruhai to prepare a female corpse of the same height, weight, and age as Du Yiyi, and asked Gonggong Chang to lead the undying Ning Zhiyuan to the prison early this morning.

Two days is enough to change a lot of things, from the onset of Ning Zhiyuan's illness to the present is only two days, the Du Yiyi who is cold and arrogant on the outside and gentle and tender on the inside is already just a corpse soaked in the rain in the prison, today is a heavy rain, and the layer of straw that has been soaked in the tide and moldy in the damp prison is even more submerged, Du Yiyi's body is lying on the wet straw mat, the body has been purple and swollen, obviously killed by poison.

Staring at the face that was already swollen to the slightest familiarity, Ning Zhiyuan's spirit, who had not eaten or drunk for two days, completely collapsed, and he cried in the prison without losing his temper in front of outsiders, and he didn't care that Du Yiyi's corpse had begun to stink and hugged him tightly in his arms, if it weren't for his incompetence, how could she lie so miserably in this dark place and couldn't look away?

He overestimated his ability and overestimated his weight in the emperor's mind, but from the moment she left him, he knew what he wanted and what he really cared about, he had done unforgivable wrong things to her, the conspiracy was exhausted, the strategy was exhausted, and finally Yan Shan looked back, and she was the only one who could stay by his side regardless of grievances and grievances from beginning to end, and the love that began in the haze, they all woke up too late, and they obviously had a good time to stay together, but they didn't realize until the moment when Yin and Yang were separated.

If he hadn't seen it, he wouldn't have believed it, but now that he has seen it, how does he face his heart?

"Your Royal Highness King Rui, your body has just recovered, and the dampness in the heavenly prison is too heavy, so let's take the princess out first!" Chang Gonggong led several guards to stand behind Ning Zhiyuan, seeing him so sad, Chang Gonggong was inevitably sad in his heart, there were many tragic things in this world, and one of his nephews also died a few days ago.

Ning Zhiyuan hugged the person in his arms tightly, and the howling voice gradually became a sobbing sound, today's matter, he can only seek justice with one person, but this person is his father, and he is now just a Wenchen, his life has one more thing that needs to be completed with a conscientious life, and indulgence can only be a moment for him.

She is dead, but will live in his heart, day and night, all the time.

Standing up from the straw, Ning Zhiyuan's hem was all wet, when he first saw Du Yiyi, she was a cold and arrogant girl who was a little fat, and later she married to the Rui Wangfu, and she lost weight in sorrow day by day, once he carried her on the sedan chair when she was the fattest, and now he carried her out of this dark prison when she was the fattest.

Chang Gonggong instructed the guards to retreat on both sides with his eyes, Ning Zhiyuan's initial recovery from illness was also the time of weakness, and it was already very difficult to hold the person in his arms, but now it was more painful for him than it was the grief of losing her, he lived in this world, his appearance was bright, he seemed to be proud, but he had never lived comfortably and happily, he had been fighting against death since he was a child, he had hatred since he was a child, he had never really felt love since he was a child, and he lived a very humble life.

The only person who can make him feel that he may still be a whole person is now gone, the dead are gone, and he has another hatred, and he has to live a more humble life.

The coffin prepared by Chang Gonggong was placed outside the prison, and the guards guarding the prison had all retreated to the side, the showers had stopped, the sun had not yet come out, and the breeze was blowing slowly, blowing the rancid smell of the person in his arms around.

Two days of struggle, he was very cowardly, twenty years of growth made him cautious and let him live in his own world cold-blooded, even the day before yesterday, he still left a way back for himself and chose to let Chang Yao drug make himself sick instead of leaving this world with her, without seeing the corpse, he could still find an excuse to appease his heart, and when he saw the corpse, all the excuses were just ridiculous cover-ups.

This relationship that he never thought of starting sprouted unconsciously, the beginning designed by him, the ending designed by others, he started to be passive from the initiative, she has been passively squeezed by their interests, perhaps, her departure is also good! After looking at the coffin for a long time, Ning Zhiyuan looked down at the person in his arms who was no longer recognizable, walked to the coffin, stepped into the coffin, and put her into the coffin.
