Chapter 284: Living Together and Dying Together.
"Jincheng, do you want to eat something? You haven't been in a drop of water for days, and if you continue like this, something will happen to you. ”
He was dazed by daylight, as if he was immersed in his own thoughts, and there was no one else in his mind.
Seeing him like this, my chest hurts for a while, Xiao Jincheng, you must not be able to accept such a defeat now that you are in decline. Not because you don't have the talent of an emperor, but because you don't have food.
It wasn't until his hand ran over my cheek and wiped away my tears that I realized I was crying.
"Don't cry, I'll eat." His voice was hoarse, his gaze finally focused, and he pulled out a forced smile.
I laughed, ran to the cell door, brought in a bowl of rice, and fed him bite by bite.
Seeing that he was barely swallowing the food, my tears were even more turbulent, how much effort should he have to swallow this mouthful of food now.
The conversation and laughter between Zhao Zhirui, Mu Tianyan, and Xiao Zuo suddenly stopped, and they stared at the two of us in a daze, their eyes lowered and sentimental.
Especially Xiao Zuo, he has been by Xiao Jincheng's side since he was a child, and he has seen with his own eyes how his master got to where he is today, and his feelings are stronger than others.
When the bowl of rice was full, Xiao Zuo held the wine jug in front of Xiao Jincheng, "Master, do you want to drink some." ”
Xiao Jincheng took it without hesitation, raised his head and poured it violently, seeing that the wine drippeds from the corners of his mouth and flowed into the placket along his neck, I snatched it down, and said two words worriedly, "Enough." ”
I want to tell him that he's going to be okay because if something happens to him, it's the end of the story...... Come to an end? The thought of the end of the book makes my heart chuckle......
Xiao Jincheng didn't notice my pale face, he just laughed self-deprecatingly, and his gaze swept over us, "You say, is I, the emperor, very unsuccessful in leading troops to fight, and even reduced to the point where soldiers kill each other and cannibalism?" ”
Mu Tianyan on the side knelt down on his knees and hurriedly said, "No, in our hearts, you are the best emperor." You are not unifying the world for your own selfish desires, but to let the people get rid of the suffering of war, and the reason why you did not succeed is only because of the leakage of money, and Liancheng Yanping is scheming and gave such an opportunity. ”
"I lost, and you're disappointed in me, right?" Xiao Jincheng smiled miserably and stared sideways at me.
"It's not because you're strong that I love you. loves you, regardless of identity, just because you are Xiao Jincheng and a husband with a heart. After I finished answering with a white face, Xiao Jincheng was about to say something more, and I said with a smile, "Hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son." Wash away the lead, white hair and red face. "It was the only words I could think of to appease him.
Xiao Jincheng also smiled, his gentle fingertips touched my cheek, and he called emotionally, "Heart......"
"Mother."
A crisp, moving voice interrupted his continuation.
We looked at each other, and standing outside the prison door was Xia Xue who was dressed in white and Lian Po standing next to her. Xiao Jincheng frowned, stared at me for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "When did you have such a big daughter......
"No......" I was busy trying to explain, but was stopped by the faint smile in his eyes, and now he was still in the mood to joke with me.
Xia Xue's beautiful eyes swirled between us, but Lian Po, who was expressionless on the side, spoke first, "Concubine Yue, the Great Khan wants to see you." ”
If he can help, he has already helped, and the rest depends on Concubine Yue herself.
I smiled, but refused, "No, I want to be by Xiao Jincheng's side." ”
"Mother, go and see your cousin, mother......" Xia Xue put her hands on the prison door, looked at me pitifully, with tears in her eyes, and kept calling her mother.
My heart softened, and I had to admire Liancheng, so I moved Xiao Xue'er to prison and asked me out, why?
"Jincheng...... I. I looked at Xiao Jincheng in embarrassment, but he smiled gloomily, "Go ahead." ”
I leaned down and hugged him deeply, "You wait for me to come back." ”
Until leaving, the temperature on the body gradually disappeared, and the sense of loss gradually rose. I don't want to go, but I know it's up to me whether to go or not.
The cool breeze is astringent, and the cold blows.
I was led into the side hall of the main hall, and a chair covered with goose feathers was carried in by two minions and carefully placed in front of me, "Concubine Yue, please take a seat." ”
I sat down peacefully, quietly waiting for Liancheng's arrival, and secretly wondered why he wanted to see me here.
It wasn't until Liancheng entered the place surrounded by the minions that I immediately wanted to get up, but I saw that there were many officials behind him, and I sat back quietly.
In the side hall, I could see the expressions on Liancheng's face, and I could also hear the voices of those officials, but unfortunately, I was in the side hall, and those officials couldn't see me at all.
"Great Khan, you quickly order the beheading of all the remnants of the southern kingdom for public display."
"Yes, Great Khan, what are you waiting for?"
"Do you want to return to the mountain, the Great Khan knows that the grass is not eradicated, and the spring breeze blows and grows. King Jerod is the best example of this, we can't be soft-hearted! In order to preserve the foundation that was not easy to build, we must not hesitate to kill them all. ”
Hearing that they all unanimously asked Liancheng to kill Xiao Jincheng and the others, I smiled secretly in my heart, could it be that Liancheng asked me to come just to hear such words?
Does he think I will be afraid of death, dying with Xiao Jincheng may be the final ending.
"That's enough, you guys get out of here." Liancheng roared angrily throughout the hall, and all the officials knelt on the ground, "Great Khan is angry!"
Liancheng slowly exhaled a cool breath and tried his best to calm the anger in his heart, "You guys, Ben Khan will consider it, go out." ”
"Yes."
I only heard the footsteps moving away, and Liancheng was already walking towards me, with traces of vicissitudes that had not faded after a long battle.
I immediately got up and knelt down to him, "See the Great Khan!" ”
Now that I am a prisoner, Liancheng is already the emperor of the world, and I should bow to him.
Liancheng stood in front of me, and didn't let me get up, but just asked, "Do you see those twists and turns?" ”
I looked at the place where he was pointing, and there was a mountain of folds on top of the dragon case of red gold, only to hear him continue, "It's all a request for Ben Khan to kill the remnants of the southern kingdom, what do you think I should do?" ”
"The Great Khan is now the Son of Heaven, and you have your own thoughts and opinions." I just don't answer his questions.
"Why don't you beg me to let you go? Maybe I'll think about it,......" before he could finish speaking, I interrupted, "Great Khan, if you make any decisions, you will never complain." ”
"I thought you were going to beg me." He looked down at me with his hands in his hands, his eyes shining with an unusually stressful light.
I raised a faint smile and looked at him without shying away from it. "Xiao Jincheng will never humbly beg the enemy to let him live, let alone his woman."
If death is our end, then I have now fully accepted it, without any hesitation or fear......
When Liancheng heard this, he was stunned at first, and then laughed, laughing wildly.
"What a woman from Xiao Jincheng! When I returned you to Xiao Jincheng, I said that I would take you back. And the promise between us, have you forgotten? Now that the Khitan is born, you must be born with the Khitan. The last sentence was unquestionable, but my heart skipped a beat, "No, if I want to die, you will never be able to stop it." "This is the predetermined ending, and no one can change it......
"Is it for your Xiao Jincheng again? Years ago, I almost killed you for the sake of power, and now you have to die with him, I can't believe how there is such a good woman as you in the world!"
I laughed out loud when I heard his original word 'stupid' come out of his mouth, but changed it to the word 'good', in fact, I was originally a stupid woman.
"Before this battle, I promised him that life is the same life, and death is the same death. Jincheng has nothing left in this life, and I can't abandon him anymore. ”
He flashed, his mouth curling with bloodthirsty, "Can you believe it, I'll let you come and beg me." ”
"Liancheng, why bother? Although Xiao Jincheng and I did not say the same thing after the defeat, I believe that we have already made a decision in our hearts. Since you can't accompany him to overlook the country, then let's go to the imperial power together."
"You don't have to say anything, three days, I'll give you three days to think about it. If you don't ask me after three days, then I will fulfill your death with him. ”
Seeing him say it with such certainty, my heart jumped, and what did he want to do...... No, no matter what Liancheng does now, the big deal is just death.
Stepping on heavy steps and anxious mood returned to the prison, I still remember that when I left the main hall, Xia Xue pounced, and then cried on my legs, "Mother, don't go, Xiao Xue'er doesn't want the mother concubine to be with that man!" Don't go, okay, stay with Cher and Uncle Cousin......"
Seeing her painful appearance, I couldn't bear it, but I still pushed her away.
"I'm sorry, Xue'er, the man my mother loves is still waiting for me to go back."
Then without the slightest hesitation, I turned to leave, and the sound of Xia Xue's liver and lungs breaking came from behind me.
I endured it and didn't look back, but I burst into tears.
Huan, I'm sorry, I'll repay your guilt in the next life.
Asked in a trance, I even heard the girl's cry in the prison, Xia Xue? No, it wasn't her crying.
With doubts, I was sent to prison, but I was stunned by the scene in front of me. There were many more people in the empty prison around them, and they were packed.
And the girl's cry came from the child in Zhao Ziyan's arms, tears spread all over her face, and the noise was slightly hoarse, I was stunned, is this Tianyan's daughter, Zhao Zhirui's granddaughter?
