Wu Yi thought about it in a blink of an eye, and suddenly realized that she had fallen for Mu Guifei's trick, and she tricked herself into taking holy water to Lu Ming, where is this holy water, it is actually poison.

She was shocked and remorseful, hugged Lu Ming's head and neck, and cried, "Brother-in-law...... I have harmed you, and I have given you this poison to drink. ”

Lu Ming's heart froze, and he didn't know why, and asked, "Why do you want to kill me?"

Wu Yi cried: "No, no, Concubine Mu gave me a bottle of water, and she lied to me and said that if you drink it, you will like me forever and forever, and you will ...... Will marry me. I'm so stupid, brother-in-law, I'll die with you, and we'll never be separated again. As he spoke, he drew his waist knife and was about to wipe it from his neck.

Lu Ming said: "And...... Wait!" His whole body was like being roasted by a fire, and like a steel knife, and he was in severe pain inside and outside his body at the same time, and it was difficult to think, and after a while, he understood the meaning of Wu Yi's words, and said: "I won't die, you don't have to seek death." ”

I could only hear the two heavy gates open. Hundreds of cavalry rushed out of the north gate, shouting and arranging. Bands of soldiers and horses came from the south and marched out of the city.

Lu Ming sat at the head of the city, looked north, saw that the torches were shining for several miles, and several fire dragons were still winding northward, looking back to the south, half of the city was full of torches, and thought: "The emperor has transferred all the soldiers and horses in the imperial camp to take me alone." I could only hear the generals inside and outside the city shouting in unison: "Anti-thief Lu Ming, surrender quickly." ”

Lu Ming felt another sharp pain in his abdomen, and said in a low voice: "Wu Yi, you quickly try to escape for your life." ”

Wu Yi said: "I poisoned you with my own hands, how can I live alone......? I...... I'm dying with you. ”

Lu Ming smiled bitterly: "It's not a poison to kill, it's just that I was seriously injured and couldn't do it." ”

Wu Yixi said, "Really?" turned around and pulled Lu Ming to his back. But she was slender, but Lu Ming was very burly, Wu Yi stood up with him, and Lu Ming still landed on both feet.

At this time, more than a dozen Turkic warriors had climbed up to the city, holding swords in one hand and torches in the other, but they were all afraid of Lu Ming and did not dare to approach.

Lu Ming said: "It's useless to resist, let them take it!"

Wu Yi cried: "No! Whoever dares to touch a single of your cold hairs, I will kill him." ”

Lu Ming said: "Don't kill for me." If I am willing to kill people, I am ordered to lead the army to the south, so why do I have to make trouble in this field?" he raised his voice and said: "What kind of Turkic man is such a cower? ”

All the warriors were stunned, bowed down together, and said respectfully: "Yes! We are sent by order, and we are rude to the king, please don't blame the king!"

Although Lu Ming was the king of Zhenjiang, he treated his subordinates well, and his prestige was in the north, and the Turkic soldiers were very respectful. In the crowd, everyone echoed and shouted "anti-thief Lu Ming", and when they came to face to face with him, they naturally felt awe, and they didn't dare to be rude.

Lu Ming held Wu Yi's shoulders and struggled to stand up, his internal organs were full of viscera, but the pain was as if they were wrestling and biting each other, and the soldiers stood outside Zhang Xu, and put their knives into their sheaths, watching him step by step from the stone steps down the city. As soon as all the soldiers saw Lu Ming coming down, they all involuntarily turned over and dismounted, and there were more than 10,000 soldiers inside and outside the city, and they were silent for a while.

Lu Ming saw these simple and respectful faces in the firelight, and felt a trace of warmth in his chest: "If I go south, there will be more than 10,000 soldiers here, but I'm afraid that half of them may not be able to return to the north." If I can really save so many living beings, even if the emperor executes me, it will be a death without hatred. I'm afraid that after the emperor kills me, he will send someone else to lead the army to the south. Thinking of this, there was another sharp pain in my chest, and my body was shaking.

A general led his mount and helped Lu Ming onto his horse. Wu Yi also rode a horse and followed. The group hugged each other and returned to the palace in the south.

Although the soldiers got Lu Ming, they made a great contribution, but they had no intention of rejoicing. But when I heard the sound of iron armor, tens of thousands of iron hooves hit the stone street, and there was no cheer.

A group of people passed through Beimen Street and came to the side of the White Horse Bridge, and Lu Ming rode the bridge. Wu Yi suddenly flew up, landed on the saddle with both feet, snorted softly, and sank into the river.

Lu Ming couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this accident, but then he liked it in his heart, remembering that when he first met this naughty girl, she sank to the bottom of the glazed lake and died, the water is so good, it is really rare, even her parents have been hidden, at this time she escaped from the water, it is no better, but from now on I am afraid that there will be no day when we will never see each other again, but my heart is sad, and I said loudly: "Wu Yi, why do you bother to kill yourself? The emperor will not be difficult for you, why should you commit suicide by throwing yourself into the river?"

When the soldiers heard Lu Ming say this, they saw that Wu Yi no longer rose after sinking into the water, and only said that she was really looking for a short time. The emperor ordered that only Lu Ming should be taken alone, whether Wu Yi was looking for death or escaping, everyone didn't take it to heart, stood at the bridgehead for a while, saw that there was no movement in the river, and they all followed Lu Ming.

When he arrived at the palace, Shi Lai Muda did not meet Lu Ming, and ordered the imperial camp to be seized. The commander thought to himself that King Lu was born with divine powers, how could he be imprisoned in an ordinary prison? At that moment, he devised a plan, ordered someone to take the largest and heaviest iron chains and iron shackles, lock his hands and feet, and then imprison him in a large iron cage.

This big iron cage was used by Wu Yi to imprison the lions when he was playing with lions, and each steel bar of the cage was as thick as a child's arm.

Outside the iron cage, he sent a hundred soldiers from the imperial camp, each holding a spear, and surrounded four circles layer by layer, if Lu Ming moved in the iron cage, all the soldiers could pierce the spear into the cage, no matter how strong he was, he could not break off the iron lock and iron cuffs in an instant, and break out of the cage.

Outside the palace, there is a team of personal soldiers who are closely guarded. Sleimuda transferred all the soldiers who were originally stationed in Nanjing out of Nanjing City, in case they were loyal to Lu Ming and tried to save them.

Lu Ming leaned on the bar of the iron cage, gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his abdomen, and had no time to think about it, until twelve hours passed, and by the evening of the second day, the medicinal properties of the poison slowly disappeared, and the severe pain subsided.

Lu Ming's strength gradually recovered, but in this situation, how could he get out of trouble? He thought to himself that it was useless to be troubled, and no matter how dangerous the danger was in this life, he had also experienced a lot of dangers, could it be that I, Lu Ming, a hero, would really be trapped in this iron cage? Fortunately, all the relatives and soldiers respected him as a hero, and although the guards were never lax, they were treated with good wine and food, and there was no shortage of courtesies. Lu Ming drank bitterly, and a few days later, the wine jar next to the iron cage piled up.

Shi Muda never came to see him, but sent a few eloquent people to persuade him, saying that the emperor was magnanimous, taking into account the old feelings, and could not bear to increase the punishment, and asked Lu Ming to repent and beg for mercy. Lu Ming didn't look at these lobbyists, and poured his own wine.

After more than a month like this, the four lobbyists were not tired of it, and they just made clichés every day, talking over and over again, saying something like "the emperor treats King Lu like a mountain, and you can only survive by listening to the emperor's words", what "the emperor is a martial artist, seeing thousands of miles away, and looking far for a hundred generations, the Holy Son of Heaven will never be wrong, you must follow the path pointed out by the emperor", and so on. These lobbyists obviously knew that they would not be able to persuade Lu Ming, but they were still chattering endlessly.
