Chapter 161: Undercurrents are surging
Qi Yu's return made the soldiers of the three armies who were already imposing like a rainbow even more powerful, and the battlefield was even more invincible, and even created a myth that the soldiers were bloodless, and the enemy army surrendered when the three seals of the book were shot into the city.
In just over a month, the Beicang army won a great victory all the way, approaching the hinterland of Nanchi, and it was only thousands of miles away from Pingyang City, the capital of Nanchi.
At this time, in the Nanchi Palace, Situ Rui was dressed in a Kowloon embroidered robe, half-sitting and half-lying on the long couch in the side hall, holding a **** charming woman in his arms.
The woman's eyes were like silk, smiling coquettishly, and her slender jade fingers dyed with vermilion dankou gently drew circles on Situ Rui's chest.
Under a closer look, although Situ Rui has handsome facial features, his dark eyes are dark and hidden, and his temperament is evil.
As if he was stirred by the warm fragrant nephrite in his arms, he didn't care about the presence of the palace maid and eunuch serving on the side, and pressed the woman under him as if no one was around, and reached out and roughly tore off the woman's clothes. A pair of big hands roamed wantonly on the woman's white jade-like skin, staging a living spring palace.
At this moment, there was suddenly a black figure in the hall like a ghost, wrapped in black from top to bottom, revealing only a pair of eyes, exuding a faint cold light. knelt on the ground through the thin veil and reported: "The Beicang army has won great victories for several days, and it has captured Jiangzhong, which is only 1,600 miles away from Pingyang City!" ”
"What?!"
When Situ Rui heard this, he stopped his movements, his eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he reached out and pinched the neck of the charming woman on the couch who was still with him, and said angrily: "It's all rice buckets!" You can't even beat a woman! What am I raising them for?! If anyone dares to disarm and surrender again, I will take the lives of their whole family! ”
"Yes! Emperor! ”
"Throw her out and feed the dogs!"
"Yes!"
The black shadow agreed, reached out and picked up the woman who had lost her breath and disappeared into the hall in the blink of an eye.
The palace maids and eunuchs who served were all trembling, trembling like chaff, and their teeth couldn't stop chattering, for fear that the next person to end up so miserably would be themselves.
Situ Rui didn't seem to be angry, he looked coldly at the group of eunuchs and palace maids kneeling on the ground, swept all the utensils on the table to the ground with his sleeves, kicked over the table, and said sharply: "Get out!" Get out of here!! ”
Everyone didn't dare to come out, trembling, and crawled out.
After a long time, Situ Rui seemed to think of something, closed his eyes and gradually calmed down the anger in his heart, turned around and walked to a wall on the north side of the main hall, stretched out his hand and touched something, the wall moved to both sides, revealing a secret door.
Situ Rui stretched out his hand and pushed open the secret door, walked in, and the secret door behind him closed automatically, returning to its previous appearance.
Inside the secret door is a long corridor, and on the walls on both sides of the corridor, there is a war of clear oil lamps every few steps, emitting a dim light in the darkness.
I don't know how long I walked, there was a secret room at the end of the corridor, the furnishings in the secret room were quite luxurious, tassel curtains, crystal bead curtains, all kinds of utensils, in the flickering candlelight looked very weird.
Situ Rui stood still outside a low-hanging curtain, and said lightly to the empty secret room: "Now that the situation has become like this, what does the national teacher think?" ”
As soon as his words fell, he saw a strange figure cast on the curtain, and then a low male voice came: "Why should the emperor be angry, things have not yet reached the point of being out of control." ”
"Could it be that in the eyes of the national teacher, the Beicang army is under the city of Pingyang and enters my imperial city, is it considered a moment of crisis?!" Situ Rui's gloomy eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the shadow cast on the tent curtain, and his tone was like ice.
The shadow didn't seem to hear the coldness and fierceness in Situ Rui's tone, and still said lightly: "Instead of being angry with the old man here, the emperor should think about who this female general of Beicang is?" ”
"Female general?!"
"Yes."
"Isn't that Qi Yu? A yellow-haired girl, I can still be afraid of her! ”
The black shadow smiled coldly: "The emperor should not underestimate this female doll." ”
"What do you mean by that?!"
"The old man heard that there are people in the Beicang army who use the Flying Cloud Gun. And in the battle of Huaiyang that day, General Liu Ting also died under the Feiyun gun. and the time in Liuguo, the seeds planted by the old man for several years were destroyed by this Qi rain. This kind of sign has to remind the old man of a person, a person who should have died before he was born seventeen years ago! ”
Situ Rui frowned, pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "You mean this Qi Yu is Shangguan Jiyue?!" ”
"Shangguan Mansion was wiped out, no one was alive, only Shangguan Peize's daughter Shangguan Jiyue escaped with her brother, fell into the moat and disappeared, no one was alive, no one was dead, no body was seen. And this Qi Yu suddenly appeared not long after this incident, and there was also a flying cloud gun at the same time, doesn't this explain everything? ”
"If it was really her, was what my father said before he died true? That prophecy from seventeen years ago is also true?! She really ......."
"Your Majesty, no matter what happened seventeen years ago, the first emperor has restarted the Gu of Silkworm Smoke, but the girl who should have died in the womb was still born safely, although she was seriously ill when she was eight years old, and she was in a coma for half a year, all the imperial doctors said that this girl could never wake up again, and even if she woke up, she was an idiot. But what about in the end? She still came back to life, not only did she not become an idiot, she was also ice and snow smart, both civil and military, and was recognized as the first beauty in Nanchi. The black shadow said this, and her tone changed sharply to sadness, "I think back then, only Pingluo could be called the first beauty in Nanchi......"
"It's been so many years, I didn't expect the national teacher to still miss my little aunt, I believe that my little aunt has a spirit in the sky, and I will be very pleased."
"I fell in love with the princess back then, if it wasn't for the emperor to get in the way, how could the princess and I be separated?! How could the princess die in a foreign country and not be able to return to her homeland until now?! The Emperor! The one I hate the most in my life is the emperor!! ”
Situ Rui heard the black shadow speak so viciously to his father and emperor unscrupulously in front of him, not only did he not blame him in the slightest, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a bloodthirsty smile, which looked particularly hideous and terrifying under the flickering candlelight: "Therefore, the national teacher hated his father for breaking you up with your little aunt, so you helped me ascend to this high throne later!" It's just that I pity my father, and in the end I don't know that I died at the hands of his most trusted courtier. ”
"Hahaha......" When the black shadow heard this, he laughed wildly a few times in the sky, and said viciously, "I worked hard for him, tried my best to assist, and even tried Gu to let the Gu of silkworm smoke reappear in the world, but what about him?" He was unkind, knowing that the princess and I were in love, but he threatened my life and forced her to do a fine job!! Even my own imperial sister can be such a ruthless person, I can only solve the hatred in my heart by killing him! ”
"National teacher, so many years have passed, my little aunt died and can't be resurrected, so don't be sad anymore. After all, the little aunt used to love you, although she betrayed you in the end, betrayed Nan Chi......"
