Chapter 312: Chang Qing: Listen to my orders and let him go immediately!
Du Zhenghai was held in a cell in the back garden of the Hou Ye's mansion.
He was disheveled, pale, bloodstained, and chained on his hands and feet.
In his empty eyes, a ghostly light occasionally flashed, like a small flame that would float away at any time, faintly revealing a strange look, making his sluggish expression look a little hideous and terrifying.
After a long and boring wait, the door to the cell was opened, and Princess Evergreen walked in, surrounded by Biyun and Yancui's maids.
Du Zhenghai didn't say a word, his cold eyes only looked indifferently at the other party's slightly red and swollen eyes.
Princess Evergreen wore a moon-white gown embroidered with a few scarlet plum blossoms. Her face is cold, like the snow in the mountains, with a graceful and elegant temperament.
The dim light of the fire in the cell swayed her pale and haggard face, like a pear tree overwhelmed by the wind and rain, beautiful and fragile.
At this time, she seemed to be walking on the wheel of fate, and she had tried to change her destiny but could not do anything, so she could only walk on her destiny step by step.
In Du Zhenghai's imagination, this high-ranking supreme red face, when the princess of the dynasty, should be so beautiful and noble; But the lady standing in front of him was miserable and pitifulβand he couldn't help but have a mystery in his heart.
Princess Evergreen looked at him silently, and finally spoke, "Are you ...... Zhichao's friends? β
Du Zhenghai said expressionlessly: "Sort of." β
Princess Evergreen muttered, "Count...... Be? β¦β¦β
Du Zhenghai said: "Because he is still the son of my father's enemy." β
Princess Evergreen's heart twitched painfully, "Speaking of which, it's still He Yuting's evil that was created by the enemy, why ......?"
Du Zhenghai sighed lightly and asked, "How is Lingyun now?" β
Princess Evergreen's eyes instantly shattered, and she said incoherently, "I don't know...... I hurt him, I shouldn't believe He Yuting's nonsense, I deceived him...... I'm so stupid......" She couldn't stop crying.
Du Zhenghai felt sour in his heart, and just looked at her silently.
It took a long time for Princess Evergreen to stop her grief, and her voice trembled and said, "I'm sorry Du Gongzi, I'm out of shape." It's a shame to say that those of us who are parents are not as good as outsiders in the end......
"You can also sacrifice your life to help him and save him; And what can I do for him but to trouble him, or even hurt him? β
Du Zhenghai tugged at the corners of his lips, and said in a voice as cold as ice: "The princess is serious." How can we, the pariahs, be compared to the supreme lord and princess? We will not play tricks, let alone use the power in our hands to cause other people's wives to be separated, families to be destroyed, and even chase after others to kill them......"
He spoke unhurriedly, as if he were saying something innocuous and innocent, but the words were like knives, piercing her heart.
Princess Evergreen said in a trembling voice: "Don't say it! β¦β¦ I also know that I have done many things with He Yuting to be sorry for you before, and now I don't ask for your forgiveness, I just want to do my best to make a little compensation. β
"Compensate, can you compensate?" Du Zhenghai rolled his eyes in disdain, "What's more, who knows if what you said is true or false?" β
Princess Evergreen's heart trembled, and she was speechless in a daze.
Du Zhenghai's unprecedented indignation surged into his heart, and he looked at her with burning eyes and said: "Now even biological parents can deceive and even betray their son, who do you say I dare to trust in this world?" β
Princess Evergreen froze for a moment, clutching her chest tightly, the heart-rending pain that made it difficult for her to breathe.
She was in a trance, her delicate figure was shaky, and if it weren't for the timely support of the maids on both sides, she would almost have fallen to the ground.
She knew that no matter what she said now, Du Zhenghai would not believe it. Is all this retribution?
She hid her face with her hands and staggered out as if she were fleeing.
Princess Evergreen left, and Du Zhenghai leaned his tired body against the cold wall of the cell weakly.
Thinking of Princess Evergreen's sad tears and painful expression, his eyebrows couldn't help but twist into a dead knot, and he muttered to himself: "Could it be that Princess Evergreen really didn't know about this matter at the beginning, but was just deceived and used by He Yuting's hypocrite?" β
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking to himself: "Lingyun is now in the hands of the Heavenly Owl, and it must be more than auspicious; And he fell for He Yuting's conspiracy and was imprisoned, and his life was not guaranteed, so what was the use of thinking about these tedious things? ββ¦β¦
The dark sky exhales a dull breath; There was not a trace of wind around, only the smell of earth was on the tip of the nose, the whole world was damp and oppressive, and the air seemed to be stuffy, and it was suffocating.
A few days passed.
On this day, when Du Zhenghai heard the door of the cell "click", a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, but he disappeared and was replaced by deep hatred, because at this time, he saw He Yuting.
He Yuting was surrounded by the housekeeper He Luwei, the martial artist Ah San and others, as well as dozens of guards and family members, all holding sharp blades, their faces hideous, and their eyes were murderous.
At a glance at this posture, Du Zhenghai understood a little in his heart.
He didn't speak, his bloodshot eyes were as red as ghosts, and he only stared gloomily at the enemy of the sea of blood in front of him who he wanted to cut with a thousand knives.
He Yuting avoided his sharp eyes, sighed lightly, and said: "Du Zhenghai, in fact, I don't want to hurt you in my heart, but some things are not controlled by people's will, just like the grievances and grievances between you and me, if you want to resolve them, unless one person dies first - and this person, it's either you or me." β
"What kind of chastity archway do lowly people want to erect?" Du Zhenghai's face turned blue, his eyes widened with anger, and he gritted his teeth.
"He Yuting, since you want to kill people and speak out, why do you have to pretend to be compassionate? Is there anyone in this world who is more hypocritical and shameless than you? I only complain that Du was obedient at a certain time, and I can't repay this deep hatred in this life, if there is an afterlife......"
"Shut him up." He Yuting's gloomy face was very ugly, and his obsidian-like eyes were glowing with a chilling luster, and he turned his face to He Luwei on the side.
Hou Ye spoke, who would dare to disobey? He Lu hurriedly agreed. A cold light appeared in his eyes, and he was full of murderous aura, and he sharply ordered Ah San and the others: "What are you doing in a daze, don't send him on the road!" β
Ah San's eyes were turbulent, and he answered "yes" in a low voice, and his ruthless gaze turned to the left and right.
Several wolf-like guards rushed forward and grabbed Du Zhenghai without saying anything; Several other guards had already set up the gallows, put on the ropes, and pulled and pushed Du Zhenghai onto the torture rack. β¦β¦
At this time, I only heard a woman's deep voice say, "Stop! β
Everyone was stunned, only to see the figure at the door of the cell, and the evergreen princess and the lord of Huanyu walked in surrounded by more than a dozen maids.
The person who shouted to stop was none other than Princess Evergreen.
Ah San, He Luwei and others hurriedly greeted Princess Evergreen and Lord Huanyu.
Princess Evergreen snorted, seemingly too lazy to take care of them.
She walked straight up to He Yuting, her eyes were as cold as frost, she grabbed his eyes that flashed hesitantly, and said in an unquestionable tone: "He Yuting, I don't allow you to hurt this person, let him go immediately!" β
He Yuting was stunned, and then smiled at Princess Evergreen: "Princess, do you know who he is, this person can't let go!" β
Princess Evergreen sneered, "It's because I already know who he is, that's why I asked you to let him go." He Yuting, do you still think that the sins you have created are not deep enough? Their family is miserable enough, do you really want to kill them all? β
He Yuting was speechless for a while.
He Luwei said cautiously: "Princess, in fact, Master Hou also had to do it as a last resort!" Hou Ye originally had no intention of hurting him, it was this stinky boy who sought his own death and boldly came to assassinate Hou Ye - if we didn't kill him, he would come to kill us, so this person must not stay! β
Princess Evergreen's willow eyebrows were upside down, her phoenix eyes widened, and she reprimanded: "Bold minion, do you have a share of what you say here, don't retreat!" β
He Luwei was reprimanded mercilessly by the hostess, and immediately opened his mouth and was full of embarrassment, so he had to retreat to the side.
Princess Evergreen turned to Ah San and said, "Ah San, listen to my order and put Du Zhenghai down immediately!" β
There was a momentary froze on Ah San's face. He hesitated for a moment, and turned his gaze to He Yuting for advice.
He Yuting sighed lightly and said, "Didn't you hear the princess's words, let them go." β
Ah San had no choice but to snort weakly, and ordered the left and right guards to put down Du Zhenghai from under the gallows.
Princess Changqing turned her face, looked at Du Zhenghai with tears in her eyes, and said, "Du Gongzi, hurry up and leave, leave the capital forever, and never come back." β
"It is worthy of being the princess of the dynasty, worthy of being the hostess of the Hou Ye's Mansion, and worthy of being Ling Yun's biological mother - it is really a decisive decision to kill, vigorous and resolute, but it is a pity that she was born at the wrong time, she is not ladylike when she meets someone, and she is not strong in life......"
Du Zhenghai glanced at Princess Changqing silently, and sighed a little embarrassed in his heart. Without saying a word, he turned and walked out.
"There are assassins! ......" At this time, Ah San's face suddenly changed, and he flashed his long sword. The guards on both sides are also swords unsheathed, as if facing a great enemy.
But when I saw a gray figure as fast as lightning and like a dragon, it was in front of everyone in a flash.
The guards on both sides met him with their swords, but the man let out a long howl, which made people shudder like a owl.
The man had silver sideburns, a gray coat and a masked, and he should have been an old woman of about sixty years old.
With a seemingly random swing of the long sword in her hand, the sky was full of stars, and more than a dozen guards were already screaming miserably, and they all fell to the ground and wailed in pain.
He Yuting was also stunned.
Du Zhenghai didn't take a few steps, at this time, when he saw the opportunity, his mind suddenly turned, a crane soared into the sky, his body trembled, and a few somersaults had flown in front of He Yuting.
In a flash of cold light, Leng Sensen's long sword had already crossed He Yuting's neck!
