When I looked over, it was the people of Lingyang who spontaneously formed a team and came towards us. The leader was Aunt Yu who met that day, holding a firewood knife in her hand. The rest of the people were armed with instruments, rakes or hoes.

Aunt Yu and her entourage came to our side, "Don't be afraid, princess, we're here to help you!" The people of Lingyang all looked at Xu Zitang with resentment, I was moved by everyone's righteousness, and my eyes were slightly red for a while.

"This Xu Zitang has been rampant and domineering in Lingyang for many years, and there is no one present who does not resent him, and some even have a deep hatred of blood. Today, we are all going to deal with this dog thief for the sake of Lingyang's future peaceful days. Aunt Yu said indignantly.

The rest of the people should follow Aunt Yu's words, holding the instrument and roaring at Xu Zitang.

Xu Zitang didn't seem to expect that the resentment of the people of Lingyang against him could reach the point of being exposed, and the arrogance that was still arrogant just now was a little shorter in an instant. I seized the opportunity to continue to dismantle his inner defenses.

"Xu Zitang, it is impossible for you to leave here alive today. Put down Miss Xu, and stay with all the corpses. I picked up the bone knife and pointed the blade at Xu Zitang, who was already panicking.

Xu Zitang's spiritual defense line gradually collapsed, and he shouted in despair: "A group of untouchables, untouchables, I want to kill you!" Xu Yunnong trembled and closed his eyes tightly. I raised my hand to signal that Ke Mo took the bow, and beware of Xu Zitang's next move.

Suddenly, Xu Zitang's hand was raised high, aiming at Xu Yunnong and going straight down. Hu Yin erupted into a heart-rending scream, but Mo's arrows flew out at the same time, but Xu Zitang shook his body to avoid it.

I was in a hurry and was about to get off the horse and save myself, but Wu Yong behind Xu Zitang stabbed him in the heart. Everyone was stunned, and Xu Zitang turned around with wide eyes. But Mo took advantage of this gap to save Xu Yunnong, who was already out of spirit, Hu Yin hugged her tightly and cried loudly.

Xu Zitang's throat made a coughing sound, but he couldn't pop out a complete syllable. watched Wu Yong slowly pierce his heart, and Wu Yong's face was also full of pathos. Xu Zitang slowly slid down from his hand and collapsed to the ground without moving.

I looked at Wu Yong and didn't know what he wanted. Wu Yong looked at Xu Zitang silently, tears flowing from the corners of his eyes. It seems to be talking to himself and as if he is explaining to someone: "It's been five years, it's been five years." I finally solved you, and I can give an explanation to the people. ”

Ji Lin looked at the rest of the soldiers who were about to move, but they lost their backbone and didn't know what to do. "The rest, abandon their weapons and surrender, and stay alive." Ji Lin's words made the soldiers slowly lay down their weapons, because they also knew that the resistance at this moment was meaningless.

I looked at Wu Yong, who was crying and laughing, so I could only send Cong Thorn to take him into custody first, and then make a decision after dealing with the Xu family's affairs. I dismounted and walked to Hu Yin's side and looked at the knife wound on Xu Yunnong's neck.

Xu Yunnong, a fourteen-year-old child, was so frightened that he was stunned. After Hu Yin thanked me, he took her and left. I bowed deeply to the people of Lingyang, and Aunt Yu hurriedly helped me up and said I couldn't help it.

I looked at the faces of every citizen, all sallow and emaciated, and the clothes on their bodies were patches on top of each other. Although they were so in such a deep predicament, when Lingyang was in danger, they still resolutely stepped forward.

"Everyone has worked hard tonight, we are late, and we have suffered a lot. I hereby promise that Lingyang in the future will only be a peaceful township that everyone yearns for, not a demon cave that gnaws at the bones and blood of the people. With tears in my eyes, I looked at the expectant eyes.

Immediately after another deep bow, the people all called Princess Lingyang a thousand years old.

It was that night, in everyone's longing and expectant eyes, that I knew the responsibility of being in a high position. And in the future of my life, I will always take the well-being of the people as my lifelong responsibility and support me through the long years.

The soldiers disarmed and surrendered, and the people also retreated in twos and threes. I walked up to Xu Zitang and watched as Wu Yong's sword pierced through his body, with dark red blood stains spreading beneath him.

Behind him came Bo Heng's voice, and he walked over while wondering how I could come and put him to sleep myself. I looked at Bo Heng with a ruddy face with joy, thinking that it was already very good. I waved at him, "Husband..."

Before the husband could shout, Xu Zitang jumped up as if he was returning to the light, pulled out the short knife in his boot and stabbed me in the back.

I felt a sudden chill behind me, followed by a painful pain. Xu Zitang leaned into my ear, and his voice was as light as a ghost: "I want you, follow me, die together!" ”

Hot fluid was left on my spine, and I fell to my knees before I could react. I seem to hear Bo Heng call me by my nickname... I think I still hear Kemo yelling that I'm going to kill you. Then his eyes were full of darkness and he lost consciousness.

Under the long sunset, Daddy sat under the sand date tree with my little me in his arms, and gently looked at Auntie who was playing the basket. Brother sat mischievously on the branch, shaking his legs. The sound of the basket is so good, and the beautiful scenery like the sun sinking in the west mountain is intoxicating. After a song, Ah Niang touched my head, and the bell in my hand jingled.

A-Niang··· A-Niang···

I tried hard to see A-Niang's face, but I couldn't see it clearly. All you can see is her long curly hair and round chin.

Suddenly, there was a commotion, and the sunset began to shatter. I looked at Daddy, Auntie and Brother who were slowly moving away, and shouted Don't go, don't leave Xiaoqi, Auntie-!

But it was a big dream, and when I opened my eyes, I saw a group of people around me.

I looked at everyone a little blankly, how could they be there. Why are they all looking at me, Bo Heng held my hand and put it to his face, his eyes were dark, and the stubble on his chin also came out. The immature red wiped her tears, but her face was full of self-blame.

"How... What's wrong with everyone? I whispered like a gossamer.

Zhihong said with a crying voice: "Princess, don't you remember. You were stabbed by Xu Zitang's dog thief, and you were in a coma for four days. ”

At this time, my mind recalled Xu Zitang's hideous face and Bo Heng who stumbled over. I subconsciously wanted to reach out to touch the wound in my lower back, but Boheng pressed my hand.

"Don't move, the doctor said you can wake up, just get through it. The wound is healing, don't move and pull it again. Bo Heng said.

I obediently withdrew my hand and looked at the room full of people. "You guys go out first, this palace wants to talk to His Highness."

After everyone retreated, Boheng helped me to sit up. Even though I put several soft pillows on it, there were still bursts of pain.

"What about Xu Zitang?" I said coldly.

"It seems that after stabbing you with all my might, he died. That martial arts pierced through his heart, and the gods couldn't save him. Bo Heng replied.

Thinking of Wu Yong's abnormal behavior that night, I still feel incredible. "That Wu Yong, isn't he with Xing Daokui? Why did he turn around and follow Xu Zitang, but kill him with his own hands. ”

Bo Heng walked over to the table and picked up a stack of papers for me. The above is all an interrogation of Wu Yong, and Wu Yong confesses that he has never been from any faction. When he first arrived in Lingyang as an official, he was helpless.

Soon after he succeeded to office, he also discovered that the Xu family and the Xing family were in cahoots, but there was no way to solve it. So he can only pretend that he is a corrupt official, and he has been maneuvering around the Xing and Xu families in exchange for trust and collecting evidence of their crimes.

He also confessed to putting sand in the relief porridge, saying that only in this way could the people really eat porridge with rice, instead of chaff that horses don't eat.

I looked at the handprints on the paper that Wu Yong had used to make the last blood, and I was silent for a long time. "I used to superficially think that Wu Yong and Xing Daokui were the same people, but I blamed him wrongly." I felt guilty for a while, I didn't know that Wu Yong tried his courage for the people of Lingyang.

Immediately, Bo Heng said that it had been found out that Wu Yong was indeed not a corrupt official, and Wu Yong had collected a large amount of criminal evidence from the Xing and Xu families, together with what Master Feng provided. Xing Daokui and the remaining remnants of the Xu family, those who colluded with these two families have been arrested.

I looked at Bo Heng, who was a little haggard, but he was clean. "Has Your Highness been taking care of your concubine these days?"

Bo Heng lowered his head and said cautiously: "Xiao Qi, I almost thought I was going to lose you. ”

I saw that the tip of his nose was a little red, and it seemed that Xu Zitang's knife was indeed not lightly injured. I reached out and touched Bo Heng's head with some hesitation, "Your Highness, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Bo Heng raised his head and took my hand. "That night, I didn't feel how much I called you. When I returned to the house with you in my arms, I was covered in blood. I summoned all the doctors in Lingyang, and Ji Lin also found a lot, I only want to treat you. ”

His eyes were full of fear, "But your blood can't be stopped, and you can't feed the medicine if you finally stop it." The doctors said that if you don't wake up on the fifth day, you'll never come back. ”

Bo Heng buried his head in my arms, his stubble scratching my arms. said sullenly: "I'm so scared, I don't dare to sleep and keep looking at you." Listening to you muttering to A-Niang, shouting pain, I can't wait to suffer this injury for you. ”

The corners of my mouth tugged at a smile, and tenderness swept across my heart like water. I reassured him not to be afraid, not to be afraid, I was all right now.

Childlet came in with a basin of water, breaking the heartwarming scene. Scratching his head a little embarrassed, "The slave wants to fetch water to wash the princess's face and make the princess more comfortable." ”

Bo Heng glared at the immature red sadly, I smiled and asked him to go to rest too, I'm fine. Immediately, Bo Heng turned around three times and reluctantly went back to the room.

The immature smiled and brought the water, and I washed my face slowly. The immature red began to speak again: "Princess, you don't know how anxious Your Highness was when you were unconscious. ”

"He carried you all the way back home, and he couldn't even catch up with them. When the doctors were helpless, he put a knife to their necks and told them to pull you back from the hands of Lord Hades. The little red mouth kept talking.

I wiped my face, and looked at myself on the surface of the water, except that my face was a little whiter and a little thinner, there was no big change, but Bo Heng seemed to have taken off a layer of skin.

"And also, His Highness has been with the bedside and never left a single step. Feed the medicine yourself, you don't even know that you can't even feed the medicine. In the end, Your Highness, Your Highness..." The immature red suddenly stopped her mouth, and her cheeks were slightly red.

I looked at her suspiciously, not knowing what she was doing again. "What's wrong with Your Highness?"

"In the end, His Highness fed it with his mouth!" Childish Red said quickly, and hung up a wicked smile.

I was a little surprised, and I felt a little embarrassed for a while. But his heart was warm, and he smiled unconsciously. After a little rest and some rice porridge, I tried to get up on my own, and when I found that there was nothing serious, I was ready to go out.

Childlet chased me and put a shawl on me, and asked me where I was going, but the injury was not healed. I looked at the boxy sky in the courtyard, "Go to the prison and see Xing Daokui." ”

I told Zhihong not to complain to Bo Heng, and I will come back after a while. Remember the lesson, I took it with me.

The dungeon of Lingyang Mansion is damp and foul-smelling, and even though it is daytime, it still needs to be lit up. I saw that most of the relatives of the Xu family were locked up in the prison, which was really lively. Slowly came to Xing Daokui's prison door, looked at the figure shrunk in the corner, and I walked in.

Xing Daokui looked at me with a bloody face on his face, and it seemed that he had been punished a lot. I said lightly: "Xing everyone, long time no see." ”

Xing Daokui looked at me tremblingly, "I've said everything, I don't know anything." ”

I took out the food box in my hand, took out a bowl of porridge and handed it to him. Xing Daokui looked at me in horror, "This palace is not going to poison you, and you can't be exempted from the death penalty, but I will let them stop punishing you." I've read your confession, I've said everything I can, so eat a good meal before you die. ”

Immediately, Xing Daokui snatched the porridge from my hand, and was so frightened that he was about to pull out the knife when he stepped forward, so I raised my hand to stop it and watched him gobble it up.

After a while, a bowl of porridge was swept away, Xing Daokui licked the bottom of the bowl unfinished, and said without raising his head: "What does the princess want to know, ask." ”

I sat down in front of Xing Daokui, "I want to know about Xu Zitang, all you know." ”
