Volume 2 Eight Thousand Miles of Clouds and Moons Chapter 142 The so-called love, the so-called righteousness
Syllable.
There was a slight sound in his ears suddenly, and the sound seemed a little flustered, like a frightened fawn that touched the hunter's alertness while hiding.
King Fudo Ming gently pressed the hilt of the sword in his hand, turned sideways slightly, and swept his eyes like electricity to the jasper girl who fell asleep on the ground not far behind, and joked with a smile: "Your Highness, eavesdropping on other people's words is not a good act, why, didn't your son-in-law teach you?"
Hearing this, Li Mujun simply stopped pretending to be dizzy, and sat up cautiously with his hands on the ground, staring at King Fudong Ming up and down with a pair of big black eyes, his heart was full of apprehension.
Just now, she was escorted to the west gate, and when she was about to escape from this purgatory-like Tai'an City, she felt that the lights at the head of the city in the dark in front of her were dimly extinguished, and only the sound of the heavy body of a white tiger guard falling to the ground was left in her ears, and even the sound of killing behind her was almost overwritten.
The ugly demon mask was so twisted that it seemed to mock her.
The black-robed man also made her teeth itch with hatred.
But Childe taught her a saying, "Be a good man and don't suffer immediate losses."
Li Mujun claimed that he had no helper, and wanting to escape from the sword of the immovable Ming King was tantamount to a fantasy and a fool's dream, so he played a trick and didn't ask for anything else, just to delay even a little bit of time.
Whether it's for himself or for his son, he must not let such a monster intervene in that battle situation again.
After all, she has always believed in Gongzi, and how can she stop the general who moves the world?
However, it backfired, and although she couldn't see it, she heard it clearly.
Childe was defeated, but he was not defeated by his opponent.
Instead, she was defeated in the hands of her own people, or her favorite Sister Mei, the Sister Mei who should be happy with her son.
It's just because it's a weakness.
But Li Mujun feels that Gongzi is not unjustly defeated, if she is herself, isn't it just throwing a sword and kneeling, at most it is just losing some face, it is better than losing his life, after all, the sentence "A good man does not suffer losses in front of him" is what Gongzi taught himself.
Even if Childe really descended, she would never blame anything in her heart, at most, she would laugh at Childe afterwards and say "It's really ugly".
But all this is just based on the fact that Li Mujun doesn't know what is going on in the palace, and she naively thinks that if Gongzi is defeated, at worst, she will be arrested and put under house arrest, and then find a way to escape, after all, she instinctively perceives that His Majesty has a good relationship with Gongzi.
Unless someone tells her that His Majesty is dead.
And she had to think about how she was going to slip out from under the nose of the bastard in front of her.
So she pretended to be dizzy and waited for the opportunity, which should have been a perfect disguise, but when she heard the sentence "owe him his life" from the mouth of the King of Fudong, she couldn't help but tremble twice.
She complained bitterly in her heart, and she didn't have time to think about anything else, so it was better to think about how to deal with the things in front of her first.
At this moment, he couldn't move King Ming's question, Li Mujun touched the back of his head in embarrassment, threw a wink in a manner, and smiled shyly: "People have just woken up, and they are thinking about stretching their waists, and they are bumped into by you." ”
"It's disgusting, it's not for you. King Fudo shook his head and said.
Li Mujun's apricot eyes were round and angry.
Sure enough, the person in front of him is very annoying.
"Forget it, just hear it, it's not something to be unseemly. ”
King Fudo Ming didn't intend to deal with this kind of little girl, but because she made such a fuss, the original restless mood suddenly stabilized, he gently put down the hand holding the hilt of the sword, and refocused his gaze on the battlefield under the city.
"Kneeling ......"
King Fudo muttered the word out of his mouth, and his originally sharp eyes gradually became a little blurry, as if he had evoked some memories.
The so-called kneeling is nothing but a simple salute.
Heaven, earth, king, parent, teacher.
People will only kneel to these five things, and even the lowest untouchables will not kneel in front of the prime minister under one person.
Unless he has long lost his dignity.
But dignity is not life, let alone food, offending people for these illusory things, and even losing their lives, in the eyes of most people, it is not worth it.
The lower the status, the more they take it lightly, and vice versa, the more they value it.
Since ancient times, it has never been heard of a king of a country who would kneel to others, even if it is a cruel king who has fallen to the country, they still have their own pride in their hearts.
That's the arrogance of the strong.
Perhaps it was a kind of ideological imprisonment, a trick by cunning literati to persuade the world to die calmly, and a deception by superiors to drive their subordinates to work hard.
But this kind of thing does exist, and some people value it more than their own lives.
And precious things, there will be people to rob.
Su Meier is this kind of person, she has an almost crazy desire for control, possessiveness and satisfaction, and she is even more so when faced with what she wants but can't get.
In her opinion, if she could make the white-clothed general kneel to herself, and let the Mo Jun, who turned a deaf ear to the admiration of countless beauties in the world, kneel to herself, what kind of achievement would it be?
What's more, in front of countless sergeants and in front of the people of the world.
It was not only taking away something and smashing something, but also deeply imprinting the word "humiliation" on Mo Jun.
And the swordsman should not give up this pride, nor should the swordsman bear this humiliation, let alone choose to surrender, which is a more painful thing than death.
But there is another thing, which is far more bitter and painful than this.
Fudo closed his eyes, and one of his hands climbed to the hilt of the sword again, the sword called the Shadow.
He didn't want to get rid of Mo Jun in this way, it wasn't his intention.
Otherwise, he'll be bored.
Call.
A gust of wind suddenly blew on the city wall, rustling and whistling in his ears, as if it was the will of heaven, and the compassionate immortal did not want to see what was going to happen next.
Therefore, the heavens call the winds and the clouds.
Thunder rang out, and lightning flashed.
Li Mujun looked up at the sky, then glanced at King Fudong Ming, and opened his mouth to speak.
Liu Baiqi sat on the edge of the city wall, drooping his head, and seemed extremely depressed.
King Fudo Ming said abruptly: "Your Highness, if you continue like this, your son-in-law will die soon." ”
Li Mujun blinked her eyes wide, her heart jumped suddenly, and she subconsciously asked, "Why?"
"Because Your Majesty is dead, it is I who killed it with my own hands. King Fudo replied lightly, as if killing a monarch was a very ordinary thing for him.
Li Mujun stood up suddenly, staring at the black-robed man, her pupils suddenly dilated, although the shock had filled her heart at this moment, there was another thing that was far more ferocious than the death of His Majesty the Emperor.
Although she is Wei Shengzhao's goddaughter and a princess, she is just a pick-up identity, and it can even be said that the son helped her pick it up, and she has no closeness to the emperor of the Great Zhou, or there is a faint hatred.
After all, it was Wei Shengzhao who personally knocked her Li into the abyss.
Similarly, it was Childe who pulled her back with his own hands.
But the emperor died, and it was killed by King Fudongming, and even if Li Mujun was stupid, he guessed seven or eight points about what happened tonight.
There is no doubt that once the son is arrested, those countless mortal crimes will be detained, and he will definitely die.
It's no longer a shame.
At this moment, Li Mujun's heart was so confused that he almost suffocated.
King Fudo looked at it quietly and suddenly laughed.
Jingle bells.
A crisp and melodious bell sounded from far to near. Although the ringing was slight, it was so nice and reassuring, Li Mujun suddenly felt a wisp of incense blowing in her nose, surrounding her, and then a beautiful white shadow floated quietly and silently past her.
For a moment, Li Mujun seemed to have an illusion, this whiteness, like a child, was so dazzling in the dark.
"I'm wondering where you've gone. Fudo Ming said softly.
And the white shadow bowed slightly, soft like water, gentle and beautiful.
"Childe. ”
Then, the white figure turned her head slightly, looking curiously up and down at the handsome little girl behind her.
Li Mujun couldn't help but take a step back, her thin body trembled slightly, this person, she also recognized, although it was a glimpse at the birthday banquet that night, she never forgot it, or rather, it was deeply imprinted in her mind.
Although she is a woman, she is also a woman, but the latter's face should not be in the world.
At this moment, it is close at hand, and it is true to see it, leaving only four words, which are extremely beautiful.
Li Mujun was stunned, but fortunately, her conscience was still clear, and she still remembered the matter of her son, which also gave her head a moment of aura, and remembered the words she had just heard.
So she said tentatively, "You...... Did you just say that you owe my son-in-law a life?"
The woman in white looked at the King of Fudo Ming suddenly, her face was full of disbelief, and her eyes flashed with a hint of joy.
King Fudo Ming coughed lightly and smiled, "So what?"
Li Mujun suddenly came to his senses, forced a smile, and planned to reason with this person: "Haven't you people in the rivers and lakes always paid attention to the word 'faithfulness'? If you repay your kindness and owe your life, you will naturally have to pay it back, isn't it your chance now?"
King Fudo Ming smiled even more: "If someone like me doesn't want to pay it back, what if he doesn't want to pay it back?"
Li Mujun was distracted and didn't know how to answer.
Childe ended up in this field now, it was the person in front of him who did it, how could he ask him to save Childe? But ......
"But ......"
The word grievance filled my heart, and in an instant, the crystal dew filled my eyes, turning in a circle, but I couldn't bear it and refused to fall.
"But I can't help it!" Li Mujun knelt down with a "plop" and begged in a crying voice.
She is desperate, but she never wants to see her son die.
In her life, except for her parents, she has never knelt to anyone, even His Majesty the Emperor, the evil slave of the Su Mansion, the master of the Su family, and even the son-in-law of her own family.
But at this moment, she still knelt down, just like someone asked another person to kneel on the battlefield not far away.
But this is not to abandon dignity, nor to lose pride, let alone to choose to surrender.
It's something far more rare than these ethereal things.
For this reason, one can lay down one's life, one can lose one's dignity, one can give up everything that can be put down, even one's own soul.
No one can say what it is, no one can describe it, but it really exists.
Some people are born to understand, while others will never understand.
"Please, save my son-in-law!"
The King of Fudo Ming looked up to the sky and laughed, and then his figure turned into thousands of jahins and roared, and attacked wildly towards the battlefield.
Leave only a playful and cunning word.
"What I owe is just a life!"
