Chapter 129: The End of the Strange Road
When Shangguan Jiyang heard this, he quietly clenched his fingers, his eyes were sad, he couldn't help but close his eyes, his pale lips were pursed tightly, and his teeth were clenched, and he couldn't stop his body trembling slightly because of the anger in his heart.
After a long time, he reopened his eyes and said slowly: "Because my father knows that even if we leave, we can't get rid of the control of the Situ royal family, because ...... Because...... My eldest brother and I are both in the Gu of silkworm smoke, and without the antidote to suppress the Gu poison, we can only wait for death slowly, how can we bear to let you watch us have a Gu poison attack and slowly be devoured and die......"
"Second brother, you actually know silkworm smoke?! You actually know silkworm smoke?! You always knew that you had the Silkworm Smoke Gu in your body?! Shangguan Jiyue cried, "Didn't the Silkworm Smoke Gu disappear decades ago?" Why are you still in the Gu of Silkworm Smoke? ”
"The Gu of Silkworm Smoke is owned by the Nanchi royal family, and it is mostly used on the soldiers who hold military power to achieve the purpose of controlling them and prevent mutiny. It was indeed extinct a few decades ago, but for some reason, it suddenly reappeared. My father noticed that my eldest brother and I were in the hands of silkworm smoke because of the two dishes given by the emperor on Chinese New Year's Eve every year in the past few years. Do you remember that when you jokingly said, 'The emperor is really partial, and only gives food to the eldest and second brothers, but not our share', your father's face suddenly became extremely ugly? ”
Shangguan Jiyang glanced at Shangguan Jiyue, who was silent and sad, and continued: "At that time, my father had already sensed that something was wrong, and later, after many verifications, my eldest brother and I were really the Gu of silkworm smoke in our bodies, and the two dishes that must be given on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve every year are the antidote to suppress the awakening of the Gu of silkworm smoke...... I also found out a few days before the Moon's Festival. ”
"Father told you?"
Shangguan Jiyang nodded, his pale face with a sad expression: "When my father told me at that time, I was also sad and indignant in my heart. It was then that I suddenly realized that the monarch to whom I had served all these years was never worthy of my allegiance! My lofty ambitions, my firm beliefs, turned out to be an extremely ridiculous joke, I defended the territory and fought in blood, but I was just an abandoned son in the hands of the Nanchi royal family......"
"Second Brother ......"
"So, third sister, it's not the fault of Prince Beicang at all, his letter is just inadvertently giving Situ Rui a reason to kill us. In his heart, at least he never thought that he would use such despicable means to put our Shangguan family to death. ”
Hearing this, Shangguan Jiyue only felt that a piece of gold was pressed on her chest, which made her breathless, her throat tightened, and she felt that her heart was full of desolation and sourness, but there was nowhere to vent. He could only close his eyes, clenched his hanging hands, and his face was as silent as water.
Shangguan Jiyang looked at the clenched teeth of the woman in front of him, her shoulders trembling slightly because of resentment, obviously angry in her heart, but she endured it so hard. At this time, his heart was also full of endless sadness.
"Third sister, don't be so difficult for yourself, cry out loud if you want to cry......"
Shangguan Jiyang stood up with his support on the table, slowly moved his steps, walked in front of Shangguan Jiyue, and gently hugged her trembling shoulders.
Who knew that Shangguan Jiyue's silver teeth clenched, raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, and a cold glint appeared in his deep eyes: "Second brother, I will personally enter Pingyang City and take the head of the tyrant to pay tribute to our heroic souls and martyrs!" ”
Shangguan Jiyang looked at the resolute posture of the woman in front of him, his pale lips opened and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
On the promenade outside the house.
Chu Tianyun looked in the direction of the house with a worried look in his eyes, and when he saw Shangguan Jiyue helping Shangguan Jiyang out, he immediately ran over a few steps to support his arm.
"County Lord, brother, please leave it to you." Shangguan Jiyue handed Shangguan Jiyang into Chu Tianyun's hands, raised her eyes and glanced in the direction of Huangfu Jin, "You go back to Dongyuan first, I still have something to say to the prince." ”
When Chu Tianyun heard this, he looked at Shangguan Jiyue's eyes with some concern, and called softly: "Sister Qi......"
"Yun'er, let's go back first, third sister, she will tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince well." Shangguan Jiyang smiled lightly at Chu Qianyun, then bowed slightly to the prince, turned around and Chu Tianyun helped him and left slowly.
Shangguan Jiyue watched the two leave, turned around and stared at Huangfu Jin expressionlessly, and walked towards him step by step.
Mo Ling was like a great enemy, and immediately stretched out his arms to protect Huangfu Jin: "General Qi, don't come over again, I will never let you hurt His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"It's up to you?!" Shangguan Jiyue sneered, "If I want to hurt him, can you stop it?" ”
"If you can't stop it, you have to stop it!"
"Mo Ling, stand down!" Huangfu Jin clutched his chest and coughed lightly, and was pressed down by him again, "General Qi, she won't do anything to this king." ”
"But ......"
"This king doesn't want to say it a second time."
Mo Ling looked at his master's suddenly cold face, swallowed the words he wanted to say back into his throat, turned around and retreated.
"Yue'er, you should believe this king this time, right?" Huangfu Jin smiled bitterly.
"Believe you?" Shangguan Jiyue's face was expressionless, and her words were cold, "Although you have no intention of harming my Shangguan family, you have nothing to do with it." That's why you were born with my palm, didn't you? ”
"They will die because of me after all, this is what I owe them, as long as I can relieve the hatred in your heart, what will I have if I accept your palm?"
"Don't you think I'm going to forgive you by doing this?! I tell you, I will never forgive you!! ”
Looking at Shangguan Jiyue's expression as cold as ice and snow, Huangfu Jin only felt that his chest was stagnant, and his whole heart seemed to be held by a pair of invisible big hands, and he even felt difficult to breathe.
"This king never expected you to forgive me, but now that you know it, this king feels that a big stone in his heart has suddenly let go. Even if you never forgive the king, the king's feelings for you have nothing to do with your identity, nor is it guilt, nor does he want to make amends. Huangfu Jin slowly raised his head and looked at Shangguan Jiyue, "Yue'er, this king is really in love with you......"
When Shangguan Jiyue heard this, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, she pulled the corners of her lips, sneered a few times, and said resolutely: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a debtor and a debtor, Qi Yu is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, thinking about the fact that you took care of my brother in the past, and there is the friendship of the palace to intercede for Qi Yu, today you are slapped by me again, and the grievances between us are settled." From now on, there will be no bridge between you and me, road to road, and nothing more
