Chapter 397: The Secret of the Zhan Dynasty (II)

At this moment, even Han Feng couldn't guess the intentions of the new emperor of the Zhan Dynasty, and he asked, "Why? Just because she said something to you?"

Mingxi said: "Yes, it's because she said something to me." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info The people who died before were all because they talked to me. You know, after I was cured of my dumb disease, I liked to talk to people, and I always didn't like to be still. But he made others dare not talk to me, he gave a death order. That girl was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and she didn't know anything. When she died, I could only look out through the window, no matter what I said or begged for, it was useless. I watched them dig a deep pit, and the girl's hands and feet were tied, and the whole person was buried in the pit vertically, with only her head exposed on the ground. The earth went all the way up to her chin, and the men smashed it with shovels and watched around her. Her head was facing my window, and she kept her eyes open and looked at me, her mouth was half open, she couldn't breathe out, she couldn't breathe in, she was like a mute, she wanted to talk and ask for help, but she couldn't. I thought I would not be able to stand it, but I have seen so many dead people over the years, and I don't know what it means to be afraid. I don't know why, I knew that I couldn't save her, but I kept looking at her, until my eyes gradually dimmed, and I saw that her face had changed, and I knew that she was dead and could never come back. ā€

Ming Xi spoke this passage extremely calmly, but Han Feng listened to it with a chill. The mastermind behind the killing of the palace maid is naturally Mingxi's so-called eldest brother, is this still the eldest prince who was willing to brave the anger of the dragon and also wanted to write a book to seek freedom for the half-yi girl and the children of Lidu? The change of a person can reach such a terrifying level.

This is his real enemy in the future, and when it comes to being vicious, even Liu Quan has no way to compare with him.

And Han Feng originally thought that Emperor Zhan planned to use the lives of these palace maids to force Mingxi to submit, but the more he listened, the more he realized that what he thought was really superficial, and his heart was really unfathomable. Mingxi said: "I was so shocked by the tragic death of that girl that I didn't eat for three days, and during these three days, he didn't come to see me, as if he didn't know anything about it at all." I thought he wanted me to ask him, but three days later, someone died. ā€

"This time it was the maid who served me in the meal. I didn't want to hurt anyone, and with the experience of the past, I didn't dare to let others pick up my words, but when she brought the food, I said, 'No need'. For three days, it was the only word I spoke, but because of this sentence, another person died. Only then did I realize that not only did he not let others pay attention to me, but he also did not allow me to pay attention to others. I asked myself, no matter how cold-blooded I was, I couldn't reach the level of careless human life, so I had no choice but to keep silent. ā€

"In those days, it was like going back ten years and being mute again. But when I was really dumb, there was still my mother and him to accompany me and comfort me, and my uncle taught me, but at this time, ...... It was quiet all around me, and even a flying sparrow was captured by the guards, not to mention anything else. There was nothing in the room, the tables and chairs had been removed, and the whole hall was empty, except for cloth, cotton. At that time I could almost hear the sound of my own breathing, the sound of my heart beating, the sound of my hair growing longer...... Sometimes I even feel like I'm going crazy. And after more than ten days, I finally waited for him to come and see me. ā€

"It's funny to say, when I saw him, I didn't have any hatred in my heart, and I was even a little happy - in any case, this was the only person who could talk to me for half a month. Sure enough, after he saw me, he didn't mention the affairs of those palace maids, but told me in detail about all the major events that have happened in the world these days. Do you know what that feels like? It's like a wine worm who, after being forcibly banned from drinking for half a year, suddenly comes across a jar of fine wine and drinks it all. ā€

Hearing this, Han Feng only felt that his heart was getting colder and colder. I was wrong at the beginning, what that person wanted was not a superficial queen, what he wanted from the beginning was Mingxi's heart! Therefore, he would take every step of the way, retreating to advance, just to polish off the edges and corners of Mingxi, so that she would become dependent.

Mingxi seemed to see through Han Feng's thoughts, and said, "You also have some confidence in me. During that time, although I looked forward to him every day, I also knew that I could not rely on him. This is originally a matter of deceit, and since he is unkind, then I can naturally be unjust. Fortunately, God treated me well, and after another half a year, the Northern Dynasty raised troops to attack Luoyan Pass. ā€

"The imperial capital is constantly fighting openly and secretly, the soldiers at the border pass are negligent in their precautions, the generals are in their own affairs, they only want to make more money, and how many are willing to give up their lives to protect their families and defend the country? There are no generals in Beijing, there are no warriors in the soldiers, the Luoyan Pass is urgent, and the documents are frequently circulated. ā€

"Fighting with people is his forte, but he is not good at it. Although I had not yet agreed to marry him, I had tried not to be too resistant in his presence, and sometimes when I heard him complain about the war, I would make suggestions to him. Over the years, I have traveled with my uncle to the east and west, and soldiers from all over the country have seen it, and when it comes to fighting, it may not be as good as those ministers in the court. In other words, he wanted me to rely on him, so why didn't I want him to rely on me? At that time, I only hoped that Luoyanguan would be defeated as badly as possible, so that when the situation of the battle could not be controlled, the first thing he would think of would not be those reckless generals with fat stomachs, but me. ā€

"Xing Hou didn't disappoint me, and in less than half a month, Luoyan Pass was already in jeopardy. At this time, I told him that I was willing to marry him, but only if I wanted to win this battle, and when the country was too peaceful, I would do my own business. ā€

Although he knew that this was just an expedient measure, Han Feng still felt uncomfortable when he heard Mingxi agree to marry, and he asked, "He will let you come out?"

Mingxi said: "He doesn't have a better choice." In fact, this is also the cause of the emperor's uncle's ancestor's planting, and I will harvest the fruit. He has single-handedly maintained the peace of the frontier for 60 or 70 years, and those generals have long been accustomed to this kind of merit sent to their doors, so they are naturally reluctant to step up military training. Since they are willing to let others take action, then when it comes to the crisis, they can only let others take action. ā€

Han Feng nodded and said, "It looks like I have to thank my uncle." So what are you going to do next?"

Mingxi lowered his head slightly, and muttered for a long time before he said: "I originally thought that I would win this battle, and it can be regarded as repaying the family affection over the years, and I will have nothing to do with them in the future." I had planned to fly to the Snow Dragon Mountain with the snow sculpture, and I never came back. ā€

"Go over there?" Han Feng said, "There are all man-eating beasts over there, what are you doing alone! Even if there is a 'Dance of Hundred Beasts' by your side, it is very dangerous over there." You...... You didn't want to come to me? Zhan Dai is no longer your country, and there will be no barrier between you and me again. ā€

Mingxi smiled and said, "You are rebels after all, and it is my fault to help anyone." I wanted to go to the other side of the mountain because of the 'Dance of the Beasts'. You've seen the Dance of the Beasts, it's a bone flute, but I've been traveling all these years, and I've never found a beast with such bones. The 'Dance of the Beasts' can subdue animals, and even fierce beasts from there, and in addition to the rhythm, there is also the breath of the bones themselves. I think this bone must have come from some kind of monster that none of us have ever seen, it must have been born over there, and perhaps it was born to be the nemesis of monsters. I'm curious, I'm going to have to check it out. Her eyes lit up as she spoke, showing that this was indeed her wish, but when she said "I must go and see it", her eyes turned gloomy again, "It's a pity that the 'Dance of the Hundred Beasts' was taken away by Liu Quan, and the snow sculpture was also killed by him, with my current ability, it is difficult to pass." ā€

Seeing her so disappointed, Han Feng's heart softened, and he couldn't bear to tell her that the area connected to the extreme west had already turned into a sea of fire, and even if she carried a snow sculpture, she would not be able to cross this barrier. However, since Mingxi's original plan could no longer be executed, it would be much easier for him to keep her.
