Chapter 91: Xiuwai Huizhong

"Do you know, Allure, I went to the battlefield with my grandfather when I was five years old, and I saw all the corpses and bones as soon as possible, and I saw the blood flowing like a river.

What five punishments, what car cracking, what cooking, what Ling Chi execution, what skinning people alive, has long been numb.

I myself, I don't know what day, I will be torn apart.

I don't even know if I'll be able to see the sun tomorrow when I sleep at night.

But even if I was numb to life and death, in the past, I was still kind-hearted, compassionate, and thought that I would be kind to others, have no desires, no desires, and no quarrels with the world, and everyone would be happy.

My father was loyal and dedicated to the Great Wei, but he died unjustly.

It took me more than a year to find out who was behind my father's death.

Not only that, but the people behind the scenes have been trying to kill me completely.

I want to give my father back his innocence, and it is this belief that sustains me to survive.

For more than a year, I have become a polar wolf in the mouth of the enemy.

I thought my heart, dead with my father's death, was completely cold-blooded.

Until I meet you again, my hope is back, and I don't want to play life anymore.

This is a world that eats people and does not spit out bones, and I have to live well to protect you.

If I die, who can truly protect my Allure? ”

After Tuoba finished speaking, there was a moment of silence, and suddenly, a kiss covered his lips.

Gu Qingcheng had already burst into tears, kissed him, and kissed him in full swing.

He tasted her salty tears, but he felt like honey.

"No, you won't die, and you won't split up your body!" Gu Qingcheng trembled and cried.

"Okay, we're all going to live well." He kissed her tears dry.

They soared like this, their fingers clasped tightly, until they flew over the mouth of the West Mine.

"That's the mouth of the West Mine, it's an open-pit iron mine, and those who work are the people of Beiyan and Beiliang, and the slaves of Great Wei." Tuoba Road.

Gu Tingcheng looked down, and there were about hundreds of people digging and moving stones on the open-pit iron mine.

"Why do the people become slaves, the so-called lowly slaves, who are enslaved and scourged, starved and cold, and miserable.

Since they have surrendered, they are the people of Great Wei. Without discrimination, those who descend will return to their hearts and the country will prosper.

The people are the foundation of the country, even if they plunder the land of other countries, but they cannot capture the hearts of other countries, how can words win.

Even if the four seas are unified and the world is unified, if people's hearts are turned against each other and are torn apart, how can the country be forever stable and have long-term peace and stability? ”

Gu Qingcheng looked worried, and his eyebrows were indignant.

Tuoba is like thunder, and his eyes are bright.

"My woman is not only captivating the country and the city, but also showing off her wisdom, which is really extraordinary!" He kissed her on the cheek.

"If I can make meritorious deeds and have meritorious fame, I must ask Your Majesty to abolish the surrender of the people to slavery, and all prisoners of war will be the same people of Great Wei. It not only strengthens the national strength, but also can return to the hearts of all the people and stabilize the country. ”

After Gu Qingcheng said generously, he paused, and became helpless again: "It's a pity that I am soft-spoken, how can Your Majesty listen to me." ”

"Don't worry, one day, I will do my best to help you fulfill this wish." Tuoba gently touched Allure's head.

They gradually flew away from the mouth of the West Mine.

"That's not right!" Gu Qingcheng suddenly exclaimed.

“…… What's wrong? Tuoba asked, frowning, startled by her expression.

Gu Tingcheng didn't answer first, but quickly twisted the bamboo kite and flew back.

"Look at this open-pit iron mine, how many slaves do you estimate?" Gu Qingcheng asked the general.

Tuoba looked at it casually and said, "I've been on the battlefield for a long time, and I can tell how many people there are at a glance." Below, there should be less than a thousand. ”

"That's right." Gu Qingcheng's face was even more frightened.

"What's wrong with that?" Tuoba asked again.

"I saw five or six thousand slaves that day, who were driven to this west mine by Yihun.

The officers and soldiers also whipped and shouted at the same time, saying that they would not be able to reach the mouth of the West Mine the next day, and they would all be killed.

Don't...... Officers and soldiers killed thousands of slaves? ”

"Probably not, no matter how brutal the officers and soldiers are, they want to leave the slaves to work hard, and killing the slaves will not do them any good." Tuoba groaned.

Gu Chengcheng suddenly turned the bamboo kite in the direction of Dongluan.

"I heard Deputy Commander Li say that there are tigers, leopards and jackals in Dongluan, maybe those slaves were all driven to Dongluan by officers and soldiers to feed the wolves. Let's take a look. Gu Qingcheng said.

Gu Tingcheng set up a bamboo kite and kept looking for it in the direction of Dongluan.

Suddenly, they saw the shadow of a slave hidden in the mountain col in the east mountain.

Gu Qingcheng was pleasantly surprised: "They were really driven to Dongluan!" ”

"Shhhh But he saw that the devil had looked down and was frowning and pondering.

"Yikes!" Gu Qingcheng looked at it carefully, and let out a low exclamation.

She looked at the devil's solemn face, looked down again, and whispered:

"You see there are a couple of sheds down there, and there seems to be a big hole.

Those slaves are all pulling things in and out of the work, and the slaves here are several times more than the West Mine Mouth I saw just now. ”

Tuoba nodded silently, his face even more solemn.

"Allure, be quiet, don't be discovered by them." The devil pointed to some grass at the top of the hill, "Let's hide in there first." ”

They found a secret place on the top of Dongluan Mountain to land, hid the bamboo kite, and hid in the jungle to spy on the col.

If they hadn't been flying in the air with bamboo kites, they wouldn't have known the situation here in Dongluan from outside the mountain.

Gu Qingcheng looked below and whispered:

"I heard Li Yi say that only the West Mine in Xishan is an iron mine, but he didn't say that there are any mines in Dongluan.

And he said that there were tigers, leopards and jackals in Dongluan, which killed many people, and there was miasma, and even hunters did not dare to come. ”

"Allure, look at those slaves, they must be mining.

And you listen to the faint sound of tinkling and dingding, the sound of striking iron.

Here they dig out the ore soil, refine the iron ore, and then directly make weapons.

The imperial court only knew that there was a West Mine, and the Imperial Court did not know about this Dongluan Mine, and no one reported it. ”

No wonder Li Yi said that there are tigers, leopards and jackals in Dongluan, which bite many people to death.

And there is a miasma, and even the hunters dare not come in.

It must be that these people are saying things and making false appearances, which just make people dare not come to Dongluan. ”

Gu Qingcheng suddenly realized.

"Iron ore is a necessity for war, it is a forbidden item in the imperial court, and the people who dig this iron ore harbor evil intentions.

I didn't expect that there are so many iron ores in the entire Xishan, and there is more than one mine. Tuoba groaned.

"Who is so bold? Dare to mine privately? Gu Qingcheng frowned.

Tuoba's eyes became ruthless: "Stealing mines by the edge of the imperial city, ordinary people, don't have the guts!" ”

"By the way, it was the light cavalry general Yihun who escorted these slaves, and I almost fought with him that day." Gu Qingcheng looked at the lower road.

Tuoba leaned her over, kissed her on the head, and scolded in a low voice of feigned anger:

"You bold girl, not only pretending to be the aunt in charge of the Wanshou Palace, but also lending my Royal Forest Army waist card to that nosy boy.

Pretending to be an aunt doesn't count, but also letting people pretend to be the Royal Foresters, you have a few heads that are enough to cut off. ”

Although he scolded fiercely, he was proud and honored.

"I ...... That's also an expedient measure. Gu Qingcheng was a little embarrassed.

Seeing that the general was not really angry.

She said after a moment:

"By the way, if you lose the Royal Forest Army's waist card, Your Majesty and Mu Tonghui will not punish you." Gu Tingcheng asked worriedly.

Tuoba looked at her and grinned.

Heaven actually sent such a lovely woman to him!

Gu Tingcheng said as he took out the waist card from his personal body and handed it to him: "You take it back, otherwise you will die if you find out that you lost the waist card." ”

Tuoba couldn't help but hug her over, kissed her again, and said angrily: "Little thing, do you know the man who feels sorry for you?" ”

"I ...... I'm afraid that there will be one less person to protect me. Gu Qingcheng said with a smile.

"A hard-mouthed and soft-hearted little thing!" Tuoba kissed it hard and tucked the badge back into her closet.

Gu Qingcheng looked at him in astonishment.

"I said, this is our love token, you have to carry it closely.

Even if the hosta is the earliest token of love, this waist card is a token of love for the re-encounter.

You can't just lend it to other men in the future. Otherwise, I will chop the man up. ”

"You're not going to chop that big brother that day, are you?" Gu Qingcheng said nervously.

"Don't worry, my woman's eldest brother is my brother-in-law. I chopped him, and you didn't chop me up? Tuoba grinned.

His expression was soothing.

"Bastard!" Gu Qingcheng twisted his nose, "What big brother and brother-in-law, I don't even know who he is or what his name is, let you talk nonsense!" ”

"Shh Tuoba whispered, "Be quiet, don't let them hear it." ”

Gu Qingcheng also said seriously: "Then what should we do now?" Do you want to go down and catch them now? ”

"Can my woman be that stupid?" Tuoba smiled and gently stroked her head.

Gu Qingcheng remembered that the white flawless in his dream liked to gently and gently touch Fluttershy's head like this.

Gu Tingcheng's heart was warm.

"I'm just asking for your opinion." Gu Tingcheng probed down.

Tuoba Road:

"This mine mouth is not an open-pit mine, look at the cave mouth, it should go deep into the mountainside, look at this momentum, the ore content is dozens of times more than the west mine mouth.

They've only just mined, and it's too early to dig up really good mines.

This private digging of iron ore to create weapons is a major crime of killing the head and exterminating the clan, and the mastermind behind the scenes will not easily appear at the scene of this iron mine.

Even Yi Hun, a light cavalry general, didn't have such great guts. ”

"What do you mean, someone is trying to build a weapon to rebel?" Gu Qingcheng shouted in horror.

Tuoba nodded: "Don't startle the snake first, I must find out the people behind the scenes." Let's go back for the time being, I'll take care of this matter, don't worry. ”

After Tuoba finished speaking, he pulled her up and got on the bamboo kite together, and flew away quietly.

"You have to be careful, since they can take such a big risk, it means that they are extremely vicious and can do anything." Gu Qingcheng said worriedly.

"Baby, I got it." Tuoba smiled happily.

They flew back to where they had just taken off and stopped for a moment.

Gu Qingcheng groaned: "These slaves were originally rushed to the West Mine by Yi Hun, you say, will this matter of the Dongluan Mine be related to Yi Hun?" ”

"**Don't leave ten, Allure, you must be careful of Yihun and King Dongping, those slave killers who assassinated you on the road before were bought by Yihun, you have to be careful of the people around you, in case they are assassinated again."

"At the beginning, my uncle's death was inseparable from Yihun. But Yihun and I don't know each other, he is Liu Rushuang's cousin. There is no doubt that it was Liu Rushuang who asked her cousin to deal with me. Gu Tingcheng sneered.

"Yi Hun's methods are cruel, since he joins forces with your stepmother, he will not give up easily if he does not achieve his goal. Even the palace can be in danger. Tuoba was still worried.

"Don't worry, even if it's dangerous, I'll be able to handle it." Gu Qingcheng smiled at him.

Tuoba looked at Gu Qingcheng and muttered, "Or, I'll just kill that poisonous stepmother?" ”

"Responding to violence with violence is not a legitimate way, and we must have conclusive evidence and a confession before we can condemn her.

During these days, I understand what it means to be more courageous the more frustrated. Lu Zuo Zhaoyi wanted to poison me, but he couldn't succeed. ”

Gu Qingcheng didn't take them seriously.

"Lu Zuo Zhaoyi and your poisonous stepmother are both ill-intentioned, why should such a person be tolerated!" Tuoba was noncommittal.

Gu Qingcheng looked at the general's worried face, and said with a smile:

"How can I tolerate such a person? It's just that now I'm busy with my ancestor's birthday banquet, and I can't spare my hands to deal with that poisonous woman. I'll take care of my own safety, so don't worry. ”

"Isn't it as simple as pinching an ant to death to kill your stepmother?" Tuoba sneered disapprovingly.

When Gu Qingcheng saw his smile, he knew what he meant.

"General, it's easy to kill, but we are not demonic robbers, even if we kill people, we must be convinced. Don't take it lightly, let me solve it slowly. Gu Tingcheng reiterated.

"Okay, okay, everything is up to you." Tuoba couldn't take her.

kissed her again, and then seriously instructed Gu Tingcheng:

"Wait a minute, when you get to the foot of the mountain, you go to see Li Yi alone.

Tell Li Yi, you can't leak the matter of your coming to Xishan to fly bamboo kites.

Even those who carry bamboo kites up can't leak a word or a word.

Don't even mention the matter of Dongluan to anyone, otherwise you will be in danger and we will lose all our efforts. ”

"Okay, I see." Gu Qingcheng nodded.

"That's good! Allure, you have to be so good forever, don't let me worry, how good it should be. Tuoba touched Gu Qingcheng's head.

"Usually obedient and obedient are puppets, don't you like puppets?" Gu Qingcheng grinned.

As soon as he jumped up, he drove the bamboo kite and flew away.

Like a phoenix soaring with wings.

Gu Chengcheng flew down to the foot of the mountain, and Li Yi was looking around anxiously.

Make an appointment to wait for Gu Allure here, and it is not good to leave, otherwise when Allure comes back, you can't see yourself, everyone is staggered, and it will be easy to find for a while.

I've been worried, worried about Gu Qingcheng, didn't he fall down the mountain?

After a moment and a half, if he didn't see Allure coming down, he would send someone to search the entire West Mountain.

Finally saw Gu Qingcheng fly down, and Li Yi let out a big sigh.

"Brother Li, I've kept you waiting." Gu Tingcheng saw that Li Yi was waiting anxiously, and said apologetically.

"Allure, are you alright? I haven't seen you fly down for so long, but it worries me. Li Yi came over and helped her get away from the bamboo kite.

"I'm fine, it's just that my foot cramped just now, and I took off after a while." Gu Qingcheng said with a smile.

Xindao If he flew the bamboo kite with him just now, then Li Yi would be miserable.

Seeing that Li Yi was still worried, he pursed his lips and said solemnly:

"Brother Li, don't tell anyone about our trip to Xishan today, including those who carry bamboo kites, and let them not divulge a word."

Seeing that Gu Tingcheng was solemn, Li Yi only said that Gu Tingcheng was afraid of other people's gossip, and was known by Lu Zuo Zhaoyi and King Nan'an.

Li Yi said in his heart that Gu Qingcheng was the baby of King Nan'an after all, and only King Nan'an had him in his heart, so he cared so much about other people's gossip.

I can't help but feel lost.

"Even if you don't tell me, I won't tell anyone." Li Yi nodded.

Li Yi went to explain to the porters who carried the bamboo kites, and told them not to divulge today's events.

Gu Qingcheng got into the carriage, Li Yi drove, and the two turned back to the palace.

Regardless of whether Gu Qingcheng had him in his heart or not, as long as he could silently protect her, Li Yi would be satisfied.

Gu Tingcheng wants to prepare for the birthday banquet of his ancestors in the palace, and Li Yi can naturally see her often.

Even if he doesn't have the opportunity to meet, he creates opportunities.

will always wait on the way Gu Tingcheng to Wanshou Palace, occasionally meet and say hello, or look at her from afar, as long as he sees Gu Tingcheng's figure, he can be happy all day.

Every time Gu Tingcheng met him unexpectedly, he saw Li Yi's stupid eyes, but he was afraid that the devil would know that he coveted him and gouged out his eyes, so he tried to avoid meeting him.

Of course, that's all for later......
