Chapter 71: The Fog of Life and Death (8)

Wei Nong hurriedly came back to his senses, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Have you heard about the assassination of Jinghou in Chudi?" ”

King Chu looked at her suddenly, his eyes sharp: "What?" Do you suspect I did it? ”

"No, you wouldn't be so blatant." Wei Nong hurriedly denied: "The daughter-in-law knows that this matter has nothing to do with the Chu clan. ”

"But the Chudi riots are related to us." The King of Chu smiled coldly: "Is it Nie Yang who is going to condemn us?" ”

Nie Yang is the name of today's King Yan.

"It's not." Wei Nong paused, and replied in a low voice: "The daughter-in-law's appointment this time has nothing to do with King Yan. The daughter-in-law wants to know, can the Chu clan solve the poison in the marquis? Or, can you find Queen Jiang ......"

"Can't!" When the king of Chu heard this, he suddenly interrupted violently and asked angrily: "You are looking for Heng'er for this?" ”

Wei Nong knelt on the ground when he heard the words, and gritted his teeth: "The daughter-in-law knows, you must hate the marquis." But this matter is widely implicated, and he was assassinated in Chudi. King Yan has already spoken, if there is no solution to this poison, he will ask the Chu clan to accompany him to the funeral! ”

"Father, Chu Li is gone, and his daughter-in-law can't wait to cut Jinghou with a thousand knives. However, there are still eighty people in the Chu clan who are living in the Yan Kingdom, in case the King of Yan is angry and angry with them......"

"If you are angry, you will be angry!" The King of Chu gritted his teeth and looked at Wei Nong: "On the day the Chu State surrenders, the clan should be martyred!" To live is to be humiliated! What is there to fear from death! Just go underground with my Li'er to reunite! ”

"Father!" Wei Nong looked at King Chu anxiously: "You can't talk angry. ”

"It's not angry talk!" The King of Chu was so angry that his face was distorted at this moment, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly and pointed at Wei Nong: "On the day the country is broken, Li'er died in battle, and I am ready to burn down the Chu Palace." King Yan also ordered the slaughter of the palace! It's just that Nie Xingji pretended to be a hypocritical person, and wrote to King Yan, who had to bring us back to Yan Kingdom to be humiliated! We were scolded by the people and laughed at by the Yan people! And you let me save him? ”

"Is that true?" Slightly startled, her sleeve knocked down the cup, but she didn't realize it, and just asked: "King Yan ordered the slaughter of the palace, was Nie Xingji protecting you?" ”

The king of Chu was so angry that he couldn't care about her, and continued angrily: "The king of the dead country, what face does he have to live in the world!" The clan of the dead country, how can they be fed by the sigh! Death is death! ”

When Wei Nong heard this, he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, so he could only persuade him again: "If Chu Li is alive, he will definitely not want to see the clan wiped out." In any case, being alive is hope...... Now that you are trapped in the Yan Kingdom, it is not worth risking your life for Nie Xingji! ”

"Why isn't it worth it? I've stepped into the coffin with half a foot in my old bones, and it's worth his life! King Chu looked at Wei Nong hatefully: "He, the culprit, isn't it enough to harm us?" ”

"What about Chu Heng? What about Chu Huan and Chu Cong? Your two sons and one daughter are also in Jingzhou City, they are in their prime, do you want to be buried for Nie Xingji? Wei Nong immediately asked rhetorically.

The King of Chu was silent for a moment, as if he couldn't bear it: "They are the princes and princesses of the Chu State, what are they doing alive after the Chu State is dead?" After surviving for more than a year, it is already a stolen life, if you can exchange Nie Xingji for a death, you will die a well-deserved death! ”

Hearing this, Wei Nong held back his tears and knelt down to look up at King Chu: "You can't think so. It is not worth it at all to apologize for the real culprit. The coming days are long, and we can fight with Nie Xing again openly. ”

"Do your words work? If you can beat Nie Xingji, that's a joke! The King of Chu no longer glanced at Wei Nong, and put his hands behind his back: "Also, you have already remarried, and I am no longer the King of Chu, don't call yourself a 'daughter-in-law', and don't call anything 'Father'!" The old man can't afford it! ”

King Chu's words really hurt a little thick heart, but she was in no pain, she just stubbornly knelt down and pleaded: "Please...... Think of a way, Nie Xingji can't die yet. ”

"I'm not afraid of death, and the Chu Sect is not afraid of death, what are you doing?" King Chu took two steps back mercilessly, trying to stay away from Wei Nong: "Don't use these high-sounding excuses!" Nie Xingji is your brother, you are actually reluctant to let him die. Isn't it? ”

Wei Nong was a little caught off guard when asked, and her heart couldn't breathe as if she was about to suffocate. She could only hold her heart and shake her head vigorously: "No, it's not." I really am...... I don't want to see the Chu clan being innocently implicated. ”

"Then you should go and beg King Yan! Beg him to take back his fate! The king of Chu pointed out the door: "The people of Chu have always been weak, but they have been forced to riot, why is this?" Is it up to me for my son to go to quell the rebellion? In this matter, my Chu Sect is frank and has a clear conscience! ”

The more he spoke, the more angry he became, and in the end his face turned red: "My sons and daughters all have great respect for Li'er. Now that the executioner who killed him is about to die, I don't know how happy I am! How could I possibly save him? I just hate him for dying too late! ”

"As for Jiang Guo, he has never had a friendship with Chu State, even if I have the heart to save him, I can't do anything!" After the king of Chu said that, he walked out of the door.

Wei Nong saw that he was about to leave, but he was powerless to keep it, and he didn't have any face to save it. If it was Chu Heng who came today, maybe there was a glimmer of hope...... It's a pity that the providence made people, and it was the king of Chu who went to the appointment.

"In addition," at the moment when he was about to step out of the threshold, the King of Chu suddenly turned his head again and looked at Wei Nong, "You don't have to let Heng'er know about your life, and you are not allowed to go to him again for this matter!" You have remarried, whether our Chu clan is alive or dead, you don't have to bother! ”

Wei Nong was still kneeling on the ground, and his lips began to tremble when he heard this, but in the end, he still respected the wishes of the King of Chu and nodded.

The king of Chu didn't seem to be reassured, and looked at her coldly: "I want you to swear, if you violate what you say today, you will repeat the death of the Chu country, suffer the destruction of the country, and lose the pain of love forever!" ”

"Good!" Wei Nong chose to comply with the will of the King of Chu, and solemnly vowed: "If I meet Chu Heng again, please God punish my country for ruining and losing forever...... Loved. ”

After hearing this, the king of Chu didn't say a word more, and didn't even look at Wei Nong again, and walked away.

Wei Nong sat down on the ground, his mind was blank, and it took a long time before he slowly stood up. When she got up, she caught a glimpse of a young and tall figure, who was Ming Chenyuan, and she didn't know how long she had been standing at the door.

Wei Nong shook his head at him: "I've disappointed you." ”

Ming Chenyuan had already seen the result from her expression, so he comforted him: "You did your best." I didn't expect you to make an appointment with the King of Chu. ”

Wei Nong didn't have the heart to explain again, and replied: "For today's plan, I can only look at the negotiation between King Yan and Jiang Guo." ”

Ming Chenyuan hesitated a little: "Didn't you really think that this could be done by the prince?" ”

Wei Nong looked out the window: "I asked the prince, and he denied it." ”

Ming Chenyuan sneered: "Are you too simple?" Or do you have the heart to protect him? Princess, you like to make a fool of yourself so much? ”

Wei Nong ignored his words, and only said: "I've worked hard for you today, and I'm also a little tired, so let's disperse." ”

Ming Chenyuan was very helpless, and he was also a little angry about her evasion, so he said, "Okay." This time, you can go out of Xuanji Palace openly. ”

Wei Nong thanked him, and was about to say goodbye, but he saw a small guy next to Ming Chenyuan running in in a panic, and said, "Second son, the princess's carriage was hit." ”

Mingchen frowned: "Who is so careless?" ”

"Yes...... Master Pony. ”

Looking at the Yan Kingdom now, there are two horses appointed by the King of Yan, both of whom are from the Ming family. But Ming Chenyuan has not yet completed his marriage with Princess Zecheng, so there is only one horse master in the real sense-

Queen Helian's beloved daughter, Princess Jincheng's concubine, the eldest son of Ming Xiangyan, Ming Chongyuan.
