Chapter 169: I know that you are reluctant to let me die
Xuanyuan Che's appearance made Zhu Jiu come back to his senses for a short time, and he couldn't help but glance at him, and withdrew his gaze from Emperor Yan and the eldest princess, his heart was extremely complicated.
She stroked Xuanyuan Che's antidote pill, slowly passed by him, took a deep breath, and smiled coldly: "Xuanyuan Che, when I was ordered to destroy the Xuanyuan royal family, you didn't hate me, but led the army to attack the city, just to save me?"
"It's stupid."
The last two words seem to be her best evaluation of Xuanyuan Che.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Che lowered his eyes, and he also saw the dead Yan Emperor on the dragon chair, the faint monarch he had dreamed of killing, finally died.
But there was no joy in his heart.
What's the point of all people rising and falling in hatred? He was tired, he just wanted to be by Zhu Jiu's side, and for the rest of his life, he wanted to follow her.
"Don't make a fuss, detoxify first, otherwise it's too late."
His hands were shaking in fear, and his voice was a little irrepressible panic, but he still stubbornly handed the pill to Zhu Jiu.
The dark phoenix eyes stared at her tightly, as if she didn't eat it again, and the next second, he was going to personally put this elixir into her mouth.
At this moment, Luo Zheng hurriedly stepped into the hall and said with a look of surprise, "Your Majesty! The Yan Kingdom is dead, and we have completely captured the Imperial City! Your Majesty, please ......."
Suddenly, he shut up.
Looking at the two people in the hall, his eyelids jumped, and he couldn't help but take a step back, secretly annoying: Oops, why doesn't he seem to have come at the wrong time?
Looking at His Majesty and Zhu Jiu like this, these two people shouldn't be still making trouble, right?
But shouldn't it, Your Majesty has been lurking by Zhu Jiu's side for so long, could it be that the contradictions and misunderstandings between the two have not been resolved?
Just when Luo Zheng coughed and was about to retire, he saw Xuanyuan Che ignoring his existence, and actually picked up the remaining bottle of poisonous wine on the ground, held the antidote pill in one hand, and said to Zhu Jiu seriously: "Jiujiu, since you don't want to take the antidote to live, then I once promised you that you will live with you and die with the same acupoint, and now, I will cash it to you!"
Although the wine glass she threw away was gone, there was still a lot of poisoned wine in the flask.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Che was really going to put the wine jug in his mouth without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Jiu finally flashed a trace of panic in his heart, and the coldness on his face gradually broke through the defense, and he hurriedly flew forward to grab the wine jug and scolded him angrily: "You don't want to die!"
Lunatic!
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Che had already taken precautions, took a step back, and without waiting for Zhu Jiu to throw away the wine jug, he took the lead in approaching her when she spoke, and his slender and white fingertips quickly sent the pill into her mouth.
Zhu Jiu's eyes widened and he looked at him in disbelief, and there was anger in his eyes after being teased.
Xuanyuan Che was not afraid at all, his lips were sly, his deep and handsome appearance was like a fox, and he raised his chin: "I know that you are reluctant to let me die."
「……」
Zhu Jiu was silent for a while, and there was only the sound of her fist clenching in the air, and finally she simply turned away, her back stubborn and aggrieved.
When she passed by Luo Zheng, she paused, then took a deep breath, suppressed the emotions in her heart, and asked, "How is the situation outside?"
Luo Zheng touched his nose, and hurriedly bowed his head when His Majesty looked at him, and replied respectfully: "General rest assured, we have not harmed the people, nor have we harmed the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom, they are all held as prisoners in the warehouse in the west of the city."
The warehouse in the west of the city was originally used to put grain, but due to the large number of moths in the court, the grain had already been transported away in advance, leaving only some hay, and the vacated space was just right to house these rioters.
Hearing this, Zhu Jiu subconsciously wanted to take a look at Xuanyuan Che behind him, but he didn't expect this guy to follow him a long time ago, she didn't notice it for a while, and her head happened to be on his chest.
At this moment, Zhu Jiu really realized that this little kid had grown up and had grown into a man, but she still regarded him as a teenager.
Thinking of the scene where he deliberately used poisonous wine to trick her into eating the antidote pill, Zhu Jiu's brows furrowed even tighter.
"You didn't break your promise."
With that, she turned and left.
Luo Zheng on the side listened to the clouds and was a little puzzled
looked at Xuanyuan Che: "Your Majesty, what does General Zhu mean by this?"
Did His Majesty promise her anything?
Xuanyuan Che thought of her reaction, and couldn't help but smile with his eyes down, and then glanced at him lightly: "Why are you asking so much? Go find Rong Ruo and Li Chunyue to resettle the displaced people."
"Besides, all the captives are locked up and don't move for the time being."
The captives here are talking about the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom.
However, Yan and Xuanyuan have a long-standing grudge, and if they are left alone, I am afraid that these people will soon set themselves up as kings and make a comeback.
Luo Zheng also realized the seriousness of the matter, and did not dare to stay any longer, so he hurriedly went to several lieutenant generals to give orders, and then went to ask Li Chunyue and Rong Ruo to order them to deal with the matter with His Majesty's dictation.
After Luo Zheng left, Xuanyuan Che also took off the silver helmet on his head and went to the barracks to deal with chores.
He has always disliked dragging mud and water, but he often hesitates when it comes to Zhu Jiu, but now he talks to her, which invisibly shortens the distance between the two.
It doesn't matter, as long as he finishes dealing with the affairs of Yan Kingdom quickly, he can take Zhu Jiu back to Xuanyuan Kingdom as soon as possible.
When the time comes, it is natural that there will be more opportunities for them to get along.
And Zhu Jiu didn't know that Xuanyuan Che had silently planned to keep her by his side, and after coming out of the palace, she quickly rushed to report her safety to Zhu Tai'an.
After learning that Zhu Qin had taken the lead in evacuating with the Zhu family's army and was safe and worry-free, she breathed a sigh of relief.
As for what happened to her in the Taiji Palace, Zhu Jiu said a few simple words, which did not worry Zhu Tai'an.
But Zhu Tai'an knew that this child had always reported good news and not bad news, and when he heard what she said lightly, he knew that the situation in the Taiji Hall at that time must have been extremely dangerous.
Fortunately, Zhu Jiu came back safely, and he followed her meaning and stopped delving into it.
Instead, he went to the west of the city with her, and Zhu Jiu came out to announce the news of the death of the country to everyone.
Everyone originally thought that with Zhu Jiu, the female god of war, returning, they must have the strength to fight against Xuanyuan Kingdom.
When they saw Xuanyuan Che attacking the city with a fierce and powerful army tonight, they knew that they were thinking too much.
The Xuanyuan army ate all the fat and fat, but because of the moths in the imperial court, the soldiers of Yan Kingdom ate yellow and thin muscles, and even the weapons were not as good as them, how could they win?
These soldiers are also human beings, and they also have their own families, and the people also feel sorry for their sons, husbands, relatives and friends who died in vain after going to war.
Now the situation of the captives has reconciled with them.
I don't know what Xuanyuan Che said when he let the lieutenant generals under him capture these people and soldiers, so that Zhu Jiu's words that he was ready to appease everyone were completely useless at this moment, and even a little redundant!
