Qingyu Huaijin stared at Lu Shen in a daze.

If others saw her demeanor, they would definitely think that this Jing Dynasty county lord was stunned because of Lu Shen's cold and hard words.

After all, in the eyes of many people, Qing Yu Huaijin is a veritable lady of the sky, Qing Yugong loves her in every way, Qing Yu Zhongwang is also low and small in front of her, even the emperor of the Jing Dynasty wants to recruit her into the court as an official, not to mention that the vast majority of Jing Yan's officials and magnates grovel in front of her.

A noble woman like this, who has lived in flattery since she was a child, has never had the experience of being coldly reprimanded.

Not really.

The reason why Qing Yu Huaijin was stunned was because she remembered a lot of things at this moment.

From the failure of the attempt to seize Huaizhou the year before last, to the loss of troops in Baotai Mountain last year, the fiasco of the Leize Plain some time ago, and even the loss of Heluo today, she has been losing in the past two years, and she has never taken advantage of Lu Shen in front of her.

She naturally didn't want to admit defeat, so she desperately reflected on her flaws, and did not hesitate to hand over military power, only wanting to be a good assistant, but the final result was still failure.

That would be outside the Guanghua Gate, Qing Yu Huaijin was determined to die, but Lu Shen used simple words to penetrate her heart defense.

She is not afraid of death, but she does not want to humiliate Qingyu.

If Lu Shen was humiliated in every way, compared with the two, she would not lack the courage to commit suicide, but the other party did nothing, just let her live well.

Even so, Qing Yu Huaijin still did not despair, she hoped to find a chance to turn the situation around.

Until this moment, Lu Shen clearly told her that this was a fantasy.

She hadn't heard of the poison of Hook Shen, according to Lu Shen, this was the poison used by another traitor in Baotai Mountain to plot against Lin Jie, presumably it was the manpower developed by the Prosecutor's Office.

In fact, this is not important, the key is that this poison makes her unable to stimulate her internal strength, so what is the difference between her and ordinary weak women?

As for the title of the Jing Dynasty County Lord Tianhuang noble, it was obviously meaningless in front of Lu Shen.

Despair engulfed her.

Qingyu Huaijin sat back slowly, and did not fight back against Lu Shen's words, because at this moment her heart was filled with powerless frustration.

It is like being in the vast and ethereal sea of rage, and the endless heavy and gray sea water envelops the whole body.

She could only keep falling.

As soon as he thought of this, Qing Yu Huaijin couldn't help but take a breath lightly, and her white and slender fingers clenched and stabbed her palm.

Two lines of tears poured out of the corners of her eyes and fell down her smooth face.

Lu Shen watched quietly.

There is no pretense of care, and there is no ridicule to chase after victory.

Qingyu Huaijin sat stunned, letting her tears grow more and more, like a jewel falling to the ground.

In fact, even she herself doesn't know what her inner emotions really look like.

Maybe there's grief, there's anger, there's hatred.

There is also despair and panic when they have reached the end of the road and have nothing to do.

Silent tears.

The house is immersed in a quirky atmosphere.

In all fairness, the lord of the Jing Dynasty in front of him has a very beautiful appearance, handsome eyes and eyebrows, a noble temperament, and a noble temperament between the eyebrows and eyes.

Especially at this night, under the dim yellow light in the house, her face adds a bit of hazy beauty.

However, Lu Shen's gaze was calm and indifferent, as if his gaze was not a noble beauty, but equivalent to a table, a chair, or a screen.

He didn't deliberately pretend to be like this, just because Qing Yu Huaijin was not an ordinary woman.

This uncommon point to her temperament has nothing to do with her identity.

Lu Shen did not forget that this speechless and tearful woman caused so many sensational tragedies in the Beiyan Prosecutor's Office, and caused the Seven Star Gang to fall into civil strife and killed hundreds of people overnight.

If because of her weakness in a desperate situation, she is treated as a grass that falls in the wind in the middle of the troubled world, and she pays pity and sympathy for it, Lu Shen is the stupidest man in the world.

Time passed silently.

Qing Yu Huaijin's tears did not stop, but it could be seen from her eyes that after this silent venting, her emotions gradually calmed down.

Seeing this, Lu Shen cleared his throat and said indifferently: "It's a very stupid act to shed tears in front of the enemy. ”

Qingyu Huaijin turned his head to look, but he didn't see the slightest ripple in Lu Shen's eyes, like a pool of still water that was bottomless.

She subconsciously raised her hand, but suddenly stopped, and said in a muffled voice: "Veil." ”

Lu Shen asked curiously, "Why do you think I carry something like a handkerchief?" Wipe it with your sleeve. ”

The corners of Qing Yu Huaijin's mouth twitched, and she looked at her sleeves with some disgust, she hadn't changed her clothes since she went out during the day.

In fact, she is not the kind of delicate character, she has also had the experience of sleeping outside in the past, but she participated in a tragic fight before, and there are even mottled blood stains on the sleeves of the gold painted moon, how can she wipe her face?

Lu Shen told a lie, he really had a handkerchief on his body, which was one of the several handkerchiefs specially prepared by Wang Chulong before the expedition, all of which were embroidered by her own hands, so it was naturally impossible to take it out to wipe Qing Yu Huaijin's tears.

"I want to bathe."

Qing Yu Huaijin finally gave up his sleeves and only wiped his right hand on his face.

Lu Shen bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

Qing Yu Huaijin was slightly surprised in her heart, she didn't expect the other party to really agree, and then pretended to be casual and said, "Thank you, Captain Lu, please go back." ”

Lu Shen vetoed without thinking: "No." ”

Qing Yu Huaijin raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a slightly accentuated tone: "I want to bathe!" ”

Lu Shen said calmly: "I don't look at it, what are you anxious about?" ”

"Shameless!"

Qingyu Huaijin knew that Lu Shen had no intention of ridiculing, but in front of such a man who had beaten her countless times, she really couldn't find a more suitable evil word, and it was impossible for her to scold the street like a village woman, so she only had these two words over and over again.

However, every time she said it, the attack power of the word dropped by a few points.

"Don't be in a hurry about bathing, I'll tell you a story to the county lord."

Lu Shen didn't care about her counterattack, and easily took the initiative.

Storytelling?

Qing Yu Huaijin didn't feel that he had good intentions, so he said indifferently: "If you want to say it, do I still have the ability to refuse?" ”

Lu Shen said unhurriedly: "This is a story, I once heard a storyteller tell it. The age, dynasty, and location of this story are not verifiable, you can just make it up. The content of the story is not complicated, it is said that there are two neighboring countries that often go to war, and we call them the Jin Kingdom and the Song Kingdom. Once, the Jin army invaded the capital of the Song State and kidnapped the emperor and clan nobles of the Song State, including a princess of Roufu. ”

Although Qing Yu Huaijin didn't want to follow his rhythm, he couldn't help but feel curious, and vaguely noticed that the other party was hinting at him.

Lu Shen continued: "Princess Roufu was only seventeen years old when she was taken captive, and she died thirteen years later at the age of thirty. In the past thirteen years, although she was born in Tianhuang, she was humiliated and tortured by countless men. From the high-ranking officials and magnates of the Jin State, to the fierce and violent generals in the army, and even those rude and arrogant low-level soldiers. ”

"For thirteen years, she has been living in hell on earth, life is better than death, and finally died miserably."

"I'm done."

Lu Shen obviously didn't have the eloquence of a storyteller, the story tasted like chewing wax in his mouth, and his tone was too calm, not even the slightest wave.

But Qing Yu Huaijin could hear that the waves under the calm water were turbulent.

She raised her head slightly and said, "If you want to do this to me, I will definitely bite the first man who rushes up and kill myself." ”

"I believe it."

Lu Shen nodded, and then said slowly: "But how many women in this world can be as decisive as you?" Fifteen years ago, those clan women in Heluo City, those ladies of the family, and those small jasper, they didn't have a strong man to break their wrists and break their courage, should they experience such a tragic situation?! ”

Qing Yu Huaijin was stunned.

Lu Shen said: "From the seventh year of Yuankang to the eleventh year of Yuankang, in just four years, how many times have you Jingjun had a clear record of slaughtering the city?" Twenty-nine times! On average, seven to eight times a year, that is, every forty days or so, Jing Jun would create a tragedy in which thousands of miles of people were uninhabited and the city was full of bones. ”

Qingyu Huaijin's lips moved, she really wanted to say that in the wars from ancient times to the present, the slaughter of cities is not uncommon, otherwise how can it shock people's hearts? How to occupy territory with the least cost?

Moreover, if you want to make the soldiers fearless of death, not sealing the sword for a few days is the best reward, which has always been a great magic weapon to boost the morale of the army.

She admits that her military ability is far inferior to Lu Shen, but she has been taught by Qingyu since she was a child, and she is no stranger to military books, and she has never seen any general rely on his own money to boost morale.

The so-called slaughter of the city does not necessarily mean killing all the people in the city, many times it is just indulging the soldiers to loot for a few days.

However, in the face of Lu Shen's cold gaze at this moment, Qing Yu Huaijin still did not refute in the end.

Because the Jing army's twenty-nine massacres of the city were not just conniving at the soldiers, but a literal slaughter of the city.

After a moment, she looked down and asked, "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

"I'm Qiren."

Lu Shen pressed his hands on the edge of the table and said slowly: "Standing on a hostile position, considering the hatred between Qi Jing over the years, no matter how I treat you, it is not too much, and sending it back to Yongjia City will only make all the people applaud." But I didn't do that, and I will even let you go back in the future, it has nothing to do with you personally, but I hope that with the help of your identity, I can make Ling Zun and Emperor Jing pay enough price. ”

Qing Yu Huaijin raised his head, his eyes slightly condensed.

Lu Shen continued: "The word redemption, the county lord should be familiar with it, right? ”

Qingyu Huaijin is certainly no stranger, the first time the army of the Prospective Dynasty besieged Heluo in the nineteenth year, it was in the name of redemption to let the first emperor of the Qi Dynasty give up several important towns in the north.

She looked at Lu Shen's unwavering eyes, and suddenly sighed softly.

Then he nodded.
