Chapter Seventy-Nine: Temptation (II)
When Chu Liuyan heard this, he knew that he couldn't stop drinking this cup, and if he didn't drink it, it would mean that he didn't save Chen Youliang last time.
Therefore, Chu Liuyan stretched out his plain hand, took the wine glass in Chen Youliang's hand, and drank it all.
When Chu Liuyan raised his glass and drank, Chen Youliang said categorically: "Chu Liuyan, you came to Hanyang City this time, pretending to be sincere to me, but you want to harm me. ”
Chen Youliang said, staring at Chu Liuyan intently, wanting to see what Chu Liuyan did.
But Chu Liuyan just drank the wine in the cup safely, without any panic.
After drinking, Chu Liuyan suddenly stood up and said: "King Han, Liuyan was regarded as a rebel by Zhu Yuanzhang because of the rescue of King Han in the Huanhua Pavilion. So much so that he was detained in the army by Zhu Yuanzhang and was not allowed to be free. Thinking of the words of the Han King Yu Huanhuating Han King who would unify the river in the future, and the hypocritical words of the queen's position, and the oath that the Han King made when he later pointed out that the Han King would escape, I took advantage of the unpreparedness and found an opportunity to escape from Zhu Yuanzhang's camp and come to join the Han King. However, the king of Han betrayed his promise, and instead blamed him for bad things for me. Since the king of Han does not believe it, he asks the king of Han to kill me and sacrifice the flag. ”
Chen Youliang laughed again and again: "Miss Chu doesn't need to be angry, this king is just a joke with Miss Chu, Miss Chu doesn't have to take it seriously." ”
Chu Liuyan said infinitely shyly: "King Han, you are really bad. How can such a big thing be treated as child's play. ”
When Chen Youliang saw Chu Liuyan's demeanor, he thought that Chu Liuyan must be sincere in his vote this time.
So Chen Youliang took down a jade pendant he was equipped with and said to Chu Liuyan: "This jade pendant was cut out of the belly of the fish when my lord was fishing, and it was regarded as a talisman by the family for generations, although it was not very valuable, but it was indeed passed on to me by my mother, saying that if I meet the woman I like in the future, I can deliver it." As a matter of love, I will hand it over to you now, and when this king becomes the emperor of the world, this king will make you the queen. ”
Chu Liuyan knelt down, respectfully accepted the jade pendant handed by Chen Youliang, and thanked him: "King Xie Han." ”
Take a look, it is a simple jade pendant, simple and unwritten, warm and abnormal, but it is also a good jade.
Chen Youliang looked at Chu Liuyan playing with the jade pendant under the moon, elegant and moving, and he didn't feel a little stupid.
The battle of Yingtian was imminent, Zhu Yuanzhang garrisoned outside Yingtian City, and the soldiers saw Chen Youliang's warship coming from Yingjiang, with flags covering the sky and covering the sun, and the soldiers were very magnificent.
The soldiers under the tent talked about it when they saw it, and some said that it was better to surrender and forgive, and then try for a chance. Chang Yuchun shouted in the army: "We and the marshal have never been sharp in the east and west over the years, so can we be frightened by Chen Youliang's bird like this?" You are only concerned about surrendering, but I am willing to die in battle. ”
After that, he had to lead a thousand soldiers to fight with Youliang. Xu Da and Liu Bowen hurriedly came over to persuade Chang Yuchun, there were many rumors in the army, Xu Da saw that the morale was low and the people's hearts were discouraged, so he took his sword to the camp and beheaded a few soldiers who said they had surrendered.
Xu Da raised his head, ordered the battalions to be transmitted, and declared to the sergeants: "Now that the war is imminent, the marshal has already arranged a strategic strategy, although Chen Youliang's power seems to be strong, but as soon as the battle is engaged, the management and protection will not return to the Han army, if anyone in the army dares to say surrender, it will be like this, and it will not be spared!" ”
As soon as he heard Xu Da's words, the army was solemn, and no one dared to mention the word "surrender" anymore.
It is said that in the past few days, Chen Youliang has cared for Chu Liuyan in Hanyang City, and has regarded him as his future queen. The whole mansion was also respectful to Chu Liuyan, and they didn't dare to disobey Chu Liuyan's intentions.
Chen Youliang was attentive and thoughtful, and arranged everything for Chu Liuyan's daily life, and Chu Liuyan was also very moved. Living so freely, Chu Liuyan was a little suspicious that the rumors outside that Chen Youliang was mean and unkind, tyrannical and murderous, were not true.
But around dusk, Chu Liuyan was resting on his pillow, but there were faint bursts of painful screams in his ears, endlessly. Chu Liuyan was very surprised, followed the sound to find it, and saw that in the rockery pile in the garden, this kind of wailing sound was more and more clearly audible.
Chu Liuyan searched carefully, and finally found that there was a secret entrance in the rockery. Chu Liuyan was about to move inside, when suddenly a secret sentry jumped out and shouted at Chu Liuyan: "Who are you, why are you snooping outside King Han's cell." ”
Chu Liuyan turned around, and when the man saw that it was Chu Liuyan, he hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Miss Chu, the King of Han has instructed that Miss Chu can go anywhere in the palace, only the stone prison is heavy, please Miss Chu stop." ”
Chu Liuyan was very curious, and asked the soldier, "Why is this?" ”
The soldier hurriedly explained: "I think Miss Chu has also heard, here is the king of Han to detain those who are spies or offend the prestige of the king of Han, and the king of Han is here to punish them. To tell the truth, it was so inhumane that the prisoners who entered the dungeon almost never came out alive. There are not 10,000 people who die here, but 8,000. ”
Chu Liuyan smiled slightly and said, "I don't believe it, the stone prison is only about a mile in radius, how can it be as many people as dead in it." ”
When the soldier saw Chu Liuyan, he smiled, extremely beautiful, and couldn't help but continue to explain: "Miss Chu, don't believe it, the dungeon on the ground is indeed as Miss said, but it occupies a small square area. However, the king of Han ordered craftsmen to build a total of five floors, one of which was a layer of many poisonous snakes and beasts specially raised in Hanyang, if a prisoner could not resist the torture in prison and died in prison, the king of Han would have these dead bodies chopped up and fed to these poisonous snakes and beasts. What's more, if the king of Han is jealous of someone, he will also push this person alive between the poisonous snakes and beasts in this layer, and the king of Han will drink and watch and have fun. ”
"You won't lie to me with such a thing." Chu Liuyan's heart was awe-inspiring, his apricot eyes widened, and he said to the soldiers.
As soon as the soldier saw that Chu Liuyan didn't believe it, he swore like a curse and said: "What I just said to Miss Chu, if there is half a lie, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky." After taking the oath, the soldier was afraid that Chu Liuyan would not believe it, and said to Chu Liuyan: "Miss Chu, listen, the first scream in the dungeon now is the scream of the King of Han beating the prisoner with the cowhide whip, and the scream of the prisoner. ”
Speaking of this, the soldier felt that he had just spoken too quickly and said the wrong thing. So he hugged his fist at Chu Liuyan and asked: "Miss Chu, you are very important to the King of Han, and it is already something that no one knows." It's just that the villain mentioned this matter to Miss Chu, and asked Miss Chu not to mention it to the King of Han, otherwise the villain will probably be thrown away by the King of Han, and the villain's life will definitely be lost at that time. ”
Chu Liuyan replied: "Please rest assured, I will never mention this matter in front of King Han. However, Miss Ben came here, and I hope not to tell King Han. ”
The soldier hurriedly replied: "This is nature. Even if the villain has an extra head, he will not tell the king of Han about it, and the villain still wants to eat with his head, and he will never dare to ignore it. ”
Chu Liuyan said goodbye to the soldiers and still returned to the room, after hearing these things, Chu Liuyan was a little sullen. originally thought that Chen Youliang was just sometimes in a bad temper and ordered to kill people when he was emotional, but now it seems that Chen Youliang actually kills people for fun, which is really heartbroken and hopeless. Chu Liuyan couldn't help but think of the tragic situation of the villages that Chen Youliang had slaughtered before, and felt more and more in his heart that if Chen Youliang could not be eradicated, if Chen Youliang seized the world, then the people of the world could only be under the poison of not being able to live in peace every day.
Thinking of this, Chu Liuyan felt that he must help Zhu Yuanzhang defeat Chen Youliang, although Zhu Yuanzhang is a scoundrel, he still has a bit of righteousness in his heart, but Chen Youliang is different, this person is really a demon king of the world, tyrannical and murderous, if he gets the world, the people of the world will definitely fall into endless disasters. Thinking about the stone prison under the rockery, it is already extremely terrible, if there are more such prisons in the world in the future, then the people will suffer.
