Chapter 009: Life and Death Go Together
In the evening of that day, Prince Chen's army entered the city smoothly.
On the city walls, the guards have all been evacuated.
Zhou Yunchen's body was in a different place, and his ugly head rolled down into the mud under the city wall, and he didn't blink his eyes; His body slumped to the wall, blood gushing out of his broken neck and flowing down the gray stone steps into a twisted stream.
Lightning shattered the black clouds, thunder exploded in the air, and cold rain swept across the sky with a downpour.
Su Yuzhen hugged Yunhuang and sat in the rain curtain in a daze, letting the torrential rain fall.
"Yunhuang, how much do you hate me? Didn't you tell me that Zhou Yunchen gave you poison? I thought that when you woke up, we could stay together for a long time......" Su Yuzhen stroked Yunhuang's face, tears and rain flowing.
Grief is like a knife, Ling Chi him, making him liver and intestines broken. He didn't believe it, he endured humiliation for more than ten years, and finally ended up like this.
"Yunhuang, wake up, wake up...... You're going to have to give me a chance to explain...... You scold me, beat me, whatever is good to me, don't ignore me like this, don't do this...... Ahh
Su Yuzhe was in pain, looking up to the sky and roaring.
Heaven and earth are in mourning, rain surges, lightning and thunder roar......
Two days later, outside the city, Lone Dragon Mountain.
The incense of the Lone Dragon Temple has been broken, the cliff is dry and the stone is thin, and the forest is lonely and cold.
In front of the temple, a lake of autumn water connects the sky to the ground, the blue waves ripple, reflecting the mountains, rocks, cliffs and trees, and the artistic conception is bleak.
Prince Chen led more than 100 people from his cronies to stand on the ground of the temple for hundreds of miles.
Su Yuzhe stood by the lake, looking at the bamboo row decorated with yellow chrysanthemums, like a sleeping cloud phoenix, full of sadness.
He gave Yunhuang a soup to understand the drug, and complained for two days and two nights, but he still couldn't wake her up.
Her breath became weaker and weaker, and finally it was like an oil lamp going out, and she was lifeless......
According to the customs of the Chen Kingdom, the royal family was exiled to the river after death, washed away the lead and the burden of floating life, and floated freely to Fengya Mountain on the opposite bank, and then placed the corpse in a coffin and buried in the ancestral tomb.
A heart hurt so much that it could be saved, Su Yuzhen frowned, tears filled his clothes.
The auspicious time has arrived, and the bamboo raft carrying the cloud phoenix was gently pushed from the shore by the spirit boy and floated away along the water.
Su Yuzhe watched, only to feel that his heart was torn out alive, and as Yunhuang moved away from his body, what was left was just an empty body, soulless and soulless, like a walking corpse.
He watched the bamboo row gradually drift away, suffocating his chest and shortness of breath, thinking of this life, Yunhuang will never leave, never to see again, the monstrous flood instantly washed away the dam of reason, he jumped into the lake desperately, and swam towards the bamboo raft!
"I can't help it!" Seeing this, Prince Chen Kuncheng was shocked, "Quick, stop him for me, disturb the soul of the imperial sister, she will be reincarnated rarely, and the soul will not return, and it will be a big murderer!" ”
Chen Kuncheng's personal guards Mingyue and Qingfeng rushed to the lake, jumped into the water together, and went to intercept Su Yuzhe.
Seeing that Su Yuzhen was about to catch up with the bamboo row, Mingyue and Qingfeng grabbed his arms and dragged him back to the shore.
"Let go of me! Let me go! Swear to live and die with you, let me accompany her, let me accompany her! I still have something to say to her, I have something to ......."
Su Yuzhe was hoarse, and was struggling to break free from the restraint of Mingyue and Qingfeng, and wanted to swim to Yunhuang's side, but suddenly saw that the bamboo raft was floating faster, and the shape was abnormal!
The three of them floated in the water, looking at the bamboo raft in confusion.
The surface of the water is flat and waveless, and the underwater undercurrent is surging, and a huge whirlpool has emerged on the surface of the water, spinning the bamboo row over!
"Nope! No! Su Yuzhen was shocked, opened his bow left and right, and when the bright moon and the breeze were stunned, he suddenly pushed the two of them away, and the fish jumped away and swam towards Yunhuang!
The whirlpool swirled, and the bamboo row was sucked into it, circling like a spiral, but in the blink of an eye, it was sucked into the center of the whirlpool, and it disappeared instantly!
Su Yuzhe, who followed closely, was not spared, and disappeared into the swirling torrent in a blink of an eye.
Everything happened so fast, so fast that people didn't have time to react.
Mingyue and Qingfeng were stunned in place, not daring to take a step forward.
Chen Kuncheng and the rest of the people rushed to the shore, all of them in shock.
"Your Majesty, this ...... How good is that? ”
Zhu Yunqi, a close minister, asked anxiously.
Chen Kuncheng came back to his senses and thought for a while: "Is there something hidden in this lake?" Why did you suddenly spin such a large vortex? ”
Everyone looked at each other and couldn't understand it.
Chen Kuncheng: "Order, the brave who swims, the diving finder, the reward!" ”
Immediately, more than ten warriors jumped and dived, going deep into the lake to find Princess Yunhuang and Su Yuzhe.
But what is amazing is that as soon as everyone entered the water, the huge whirlpool suddenly disappeared, and the water surface returned to its former state, flat as a mirror!
Chen Kuncheng and the others were all surprised when they saw the clear score on the shore.
After a long time, the warriors who swam out of the water reached out of the water, but they found nothing.
Zhu Yunqi was shocked, "Your Majesty, there is a vision in the sky, this matter is quite strange......"
Chen Kuncheng was upset, "Don't give me a bite to chew words, you just say, what should I do now?" ”
Zhu Yunqi was terrified, knelt on the ground and bowed: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, Weichen doesn't dare to make a mistake!" Weichen thought that this was the anger of the river god, and His Majesty should lead a hundred officials to bow down, so that the people would throw rice and feed grain, and the river god should ......"
Chen Kuncheng's eyes lit up, and he was not angry: "Nonsense! The widow is the true son of heaven, the ninety-five supreme, the god respects the ghost, how can he lead a hundred officials to kneel and worship my imperial sister? How precious is the people's rice and grain, but their stomachs are still insufficient, how can they waste water in vain? Get out of the way, shut up if you don't understand, and don't make a fool of yourself! ”
When Zhu Yunqi heard this, he quickly shut up and got out of the way.
After a short rest, the bright moon and the breeze led everyone to dive for search and rescue.
The water was clear to the bottom, and there was no obstacle to seeing it directly, and everyone was paraded around, but they still didn't see the Ninth Princess and Su Yuzhe.
The crowd did not give up lightly, and searched until evening, when they reluctantly returned to the lakeshore.
"Hard work soldiers, hurry back to boil water to drive away the cold, the rest of the people, etc., the soldiers are divided into three roads, the east and west roads go to the east and west of the lake to search at the foot of the cliff, and the middle road returns to the palace with the widow to investigate and deal with the people who collaborate with the enemy and betray the country!"
The soldiers were well-trained, methodical, and conscientious.
Chen Kuncheng looked at the lake with regret, gritted his teeth and said, "Yunhuang, brother, I'll go back to the palace to find the Seventh Princess and Xu Guifei, and avenge you!" ”
When Zhu Yunqi heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, "No, Your Majesty must not, everything should be based on the overall situation, the country and the society should be governed by benevolence, even if the seventh princess and Xu Guifei are wrong, they will not be guilty to death, they ......"
Chen Kuncheng suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist, and with a wave of his hand, Zhu Yunqi spurted blood from his throat, and his voice stopped abruptly.
Holding the blood-dripping knife, Chen Kuncheng was full of murderous aura: "Even if there is a mistake, the crime will not lead to death?" They didn't report it, and they cooperated with Zhou Yunchen to leak the whereabouts of my father and queen mother, causing the disaster of the country, the crime was heinous, and the five horses were still not enough! ”
Mingyue, Qingfeng and a group of soldiers echoed in unison: "Your Majesty is wise! ”
Chen Kuncheng's eyes widened with anger, and his whole body was full of earth-destroying momentum: "The crime of traitors is unforgivable, and those who are implicated will be killed!" ”
