Chapter 225

Zhuang Mengdie hoped that her parents did not die, but she was glad that her parents died early, otherwise, with Empress Zhuang's dedication to Xiao Yuanqing, if her father was still alive, I am afraid that the end would be worse than Sima Xuan.

"Your leg is not a wound on the battlefield. Zhuang Mengdie already had the answer in her heart, but she still asked more. Empress Zhuang has already executed Zhuang Feiyu's father Sima Jun, and the Sima family has also kept to itself for more than ten years, at least on the surface, she doesn't know why Empress Zhuang still imprisoned Sima Xuan.

Could it be that what can make the Sima family dare not act rashly is not because Empress Zhuang killed Sima Jun to make an example of chickens and monkeys, but because Sima Xuan's life and death are unknown? Or because Sima Xuan and Sima Jun look so similar, after Sima Jun's death, Empress Zhuang left Sima Xuan as a thought? As if she was just because she looked similar to her father Xiao Yuanqing, Empress Zhuang left her own life.

"I've had a broken leg for over a decade. After saying the first two sentences with Zhuang Mengdie with difficulty, Sima Xuan's words were a lot sharper, although he still spoke every word very slowly, but at least it was no longer a slurrel.

His face was calm, he was used to seeing people of life and death on the battlefield, maybe he had such a calmness, he continued to say lightly: "Since I was captured by Empress Zhuang and returned to the palace, my legs were broken by her order, but even so, she doesn't want me Sima Xuan to bow to her, even if I die, I will never hand over the art of war of our Sima family." ”

It turned out that the reason why Empress Zhuang kept Sima Xuan's life may be to get the Sima family's art of war, but unfortunately, Sima Xuan would rather be imprisoned in this secret room that does not see the light of day for the rest of his life than compromise with Empress Zhuang, and Empress Zhuang, until her death, failed to pry open the whereabouts of the Sima family's art of war from Sima Xuan's mouth.

"Just for the sake of a book of the art of war, are you willing to become a wasted person and be trapped here, is it worth it?" Zhuang Mengdie looked around at this not very big bedroom, here, there is not even a window, the wall lamp on the wall is faintly spitting fireworks, after being here for a long time, even day and night will not be able to distinguish between day and night, and a general who has been majestic on the battlefield has been trapped here for more than ten years, how unwilling and lonely his heart should be.

"Without our Sima clan, there would be no Jiangshan Sheji of Tianxuan Kingdom, which was the case in the past and will be the same in the future. Sima Xuan ignored Zhuang Mengdie's question, he said such a sentence to himself, and I don't know whether this sentence was for Zhuang Mengdie, or for Empress Zhuang who passed away, or for himself.

"Empress Zhuang Yimo is dead. Zhuang Mengdie looked at Sima Xuan, she looked into his eyes full of vicissitudes, and said word by word.

"I know, I heard what you said just now. To Zhuang Mengdie's surprise, Sima Xuan actually said this, Zhuang Mengdie didn't expect that Sima Xuan, who was imprisoned in this secret room, could actually hear what they said outside, which means that Sima Xuan also listened to the mystery of her life experience.

Zhuang Mengdie's body is weak, and she can't leave her body after falling into the water in the cold winter that year, so it is even more impossible for her to practice swords and martial arts like others, so she will certainly not know that a person with profound skills like Sima Xuan, even if he loses a pair of legs and is imprisoned, with his ears, he can hear what they just said just now only separated from the dragon bed in Empress Zhuang's bedroom.

What's more, when Zhuang Feiyu asked Empress Zhuang to give way to Zhuang Mengdie, Empress Zhuang was angry and dissatisfied, and her voice was not small.

"Since General Sima has heard it, why don't you hand over the art of war of the Sima family to me? Empress Zhuang is dead, and the change of ownership of the Tianxuan Kingdom is also what General Sima likes to see, as long as you give me the art of war, I will naturally give you a good time, and I also promise you that as long as the Tianxuan Kingdom is in one day, your Sima clan will not fall for a day. The corners of Zhuang Mengdie's mouth hooked up a smile, and she slowly sat down on the seat behind the bookcase.

From Zhuang Mengdie's eyes, Sima Xuan saw her ambition, which was an inevitable ambition for the position of Emperor Tianxuan. And a person who has ambitions to become an emperor will never allow him, a person who already knows her true identity, to exist, only the dead are the best at keeping secrets. And a person who wants to become an emperor will never make a low-level mistake at a critical moment.

Don't dare that Sima Xuan will not hand over the art of war, Zhuang Mengdie will not leave him alive. From this point of view, Zhuang Mengdie is more ruthless than Zhuang Yimo, because Zhuang Mengdie has no way out, and she can't afford to make mistakes.

Sima Xuan closed his eyes and was silent, Zhuang Mengdie didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, but she knew that he would definitely compromise, because he would definitely die, and handing over the art of war would still ensure the glory and wealth of his Sima family for generations, how could he, a person who had been "dead" for many years, refuse?

Zhuang Mengdie didn't know if Zhuang Feiyu would suddenly enter this secret room, he might have left Empress Zhuang's bedroom to prepare for the future arrangements at the moment when Empress Zhuang was already out of breath. Even if he went and returned, found this secret room, and saw Sima Xuan, he would not let Sima Xuan survive.

First, if it weren't for Sima Xuan, the Sima family would not dare to act in such a high-profile manner, and his father Sima Jun would not have died at the hands of his beloved Empress Zhuang. Second, since Sima Xuan knows Zhuang Mengdie's life experience, even if Zhuang Mengdie doesn't do it, in order to protect Zhuang Mengdie, Zhuang Feiyu will personally kill Sima Xuan.

"You, can you really be the emperor of the Tianxuan Kingdom, and can you really keep your promise to keep the Sima family?" After a long time, Sima Xuan raised his eyes and carefully looked at the third highness Zhuang Mengdie in front of him with a sickly face but a beautiful face.

Zhuang Mengdie met Sima Xuan's gaze and nodded solemnly at him, the sharpness and persistence in her eyes were very inconsistent with her sick and weak image, the light in her eyes clearly told Sima Xuan that she was not joking with him, and she would definitely do what she said.

"Even if it wasn't for the sake of keeping your promise, for the sake of the Second Emperor Brother, I wouldn't treat the Sima clan badly. Speaking of the second emperor's brother Zhuang Feiyu, Zhuang Mengdie smiled brightly, her eyes were like rippling autumn water, and the cinnabar mole between her eyebrows was as red as blood and tears.

Sima Xuan knew in his heart that Xiao Yuanqing also occupied all of Zhuang Yimo's mind back then, and now Zhuang Mengdie may also be the same for Zhuang Feiyu. He had no choice but to believe in Zhuang Mengdie, after all, Tianxuan Kingdom has always been a woman as the emperor, even if Zhuang Mengdie's life experience is exposed, the emperor of Tianxuan Kingdom will not be able to sit on Zhuang Feiyu, who has the blood of their Sima family.
