Chapter 7 The Sin of Desire
"Treacherous villain, you are the one who instructed the guards to attack us!" Long Yicheng ignored his injuries, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Su Rongrong's hand and protect her behind him.
There were countless wounds on his body, large and small, and when he walked, the blood fell to the ground, and Su Rongrong was frightened.
The man with the long beard and black beard stood outside the door, glancing at the room, a hint of gloomy satisfaction slipping through his eyes. He didn't even look at Long Yicheng, he just smiled and said to Su Rongrong: "I'm not just looking for you, but also catching traitors." ”
As soon as these words came out, the room was shocked.
Xin Rujun coughed violently, spit out a mouthful of blood, sat up slowly against the wall, and stared at the visitor with a clear face: "The bird is all bowed." ”
Long Yicheng and Su Rongrong were both shocked.
Long Yicheng's body shook violently, and he reflexively shouted: "This is impossible! The army has only returned to Beijing for three months...... The award ceremony has not yet ......"
"If you had already saved this mind, it would have been impossible to make the award ceremony go smoothly, otherwise it would be even more difficult to start...... Isn't that right, the newly appointed Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War?" Xin Rujun looked directly at the man outside the door, and there was even a desperate smile on his face.
"The Ministry of War?!" Long Yicheng was even more shocked, "There is no famous general family in the capital that I don't know, who is this person? Why did you enter the Ministry of War?"
"If I'm not mistaken, I should call you 'Huang Shangshu', right?" Xin Rujun leaned against the wall, his breath was not very steady, but he spoke unhurriedly, "Before the class teacher returned to Beijing, I received a letter from home, saying that the wind was blowing in the capital...... It seems that the first thing that this wind will blow away is our Xin, Long, and Su families, right?"
Huang Shangshu outside the door smiled pleasantly, stroked his long black beard, and was noncommittal.
Although it stands to reason that he led his troops to arrest the key criminals, and he should have prevented the truth of these fatalities from being exposed one by one, the new appointment was full of smugness, so what if he was angry? Anyway, several people in this room were about to die.
Su Rongrong was new to the city, and she was confused about this information, so she could only keep asking Rong'er in her mind in order to keep up with the rhythm.
"What is the origin of that Huang family?"
"Wong...... Queen Huang ...... Relatives...... How dare they!" Rong'er's tone sounded shocked.
It turned out to be the dictatorship of foreign relatives. Su Rongrong nodded and shook her head again.
No, if it was just a few foreign relatives, it would not be able to pick such a sensitive opportunity to attack the famous heroes and generals who are loved by the whole country, not to mention that there is also a national pillar town and the Guogong Mansion.
Unless they don't want to continue to maintain this Xu country.
Sure enough, the next words of Xin Rujun shocked everyone like a thunderbolt: "The Huang family, have you already sold Xu Guo to Jing and Su?"
"What!" Long Yicheng couldn't even hold the spear steadily, and when he looked at Huang Shangshu again, his eyes were already as fierce as eating people.
Su Rongrong hurriedly searched for Rong'er's memories and learned that Xu Guo was only a small country on the eastern edge of the Xiazhou Continent, bordering Dongyi to the north, a small harbor to the east, and bordering the powerful Jingguo and Su Kingdom to the west and south.
As early as when the Xu State conquered the Dongyi tribe, Jing and Su were already eyeing each other. Now that the Dongyi clan has retreated, and the Xu ** team has also been consumed, isn't it a good time to carve up the territory of Xu State!
"What are the conditions that Jing and Su have offered to your Huang family? Divide the country? Pay the tribute? Become a vassal state, or let your Huang family usurp the throne and let the crown prince be a puppet?"
Su Rongrong was shocked when she heard it, but her head was extremely big.
Big brother, is it really good for you to be so outspoken? Maybe people wanted to leave us a way out, but if you force each other like this, won't people have to kill people and kill people? Don't you see that the guards are shaken?
The guards outside the door were in an uproar, and the whispers became more and more common. After all, they were originally the direct personal soldiers of King Xu, if this matter was really related to the usurpation, then where did they stand?
"Hehehe...... Hahahaha!" Huang Shangshu, who had a long beard and a black beard and a gloomy face, suddenly laughed wildly, "He is worthy of being the eldest grandson of General Shangzhi's favorite, and he is worthy of being the third major general of Zhenguo who led the troops to defeat the Dongyi tribe!
Xin Rujun also looked at him coldly and said with a smile: "Huang Shangshu is so confident, it can be seen that there is no excuse for the crime that he wants to add." But I'm a little interested, what's the evidence for this treason?"
"Hahaha, that's a good question!" Huang Shangshu laughed smugly again, and stretched out his hand to point at the black-clothed man who was standing in the corner of the room silently, "Isn't he?"
The three childhood sweethearts all looked at the man in black at once, and Long Yicheng asked stupidly, "Are you?"
Although the man in black covered his face, Su Rongrong still felt his face twitch, and replied coldly: "No." ”
Huang Shangshu stroked his long black beard and smiled playfully: "It's dead, isn't it." ”
The man in black's eyes narrowed, and his murderous aura suddenly rose: "It turns out that this is the purpose of you hiring me." ”
"What is the use of a dying man knowing this, but I want to thank you for helping me greatly weaken the physical strength of these two people, and make it much easier. As for the remuneration, please go to the underworld to receive it!" Huang Shangshu smiled innocently, unabashedly.
The man in black was furious, and his robe flipped up. It's a pity that the melee just now has consumed too much of his vitality, and if he fights again, he will inevitably be more auspicious. At the moment, he could only suppress his anger and watch coldly.
The Confucian monarch's heart is like a mirror, and he knows that this crime will be detained on their heads no matter what. With the current situation of Xu State, even if King Xu is unwilling to betray the country, I am afraid that he will not be able to help him.
"Yicheng, Rong'er, you help me up......"
"Brother Jun, how are you?" Long Yicheng dragged Su Rongrong to Xin Rujun's side, and carefully helped him sit up straight against the wall.
Although Xin Rujun has a light and breezy appearance all the year round, he actually has good physical strength, and when they escaped from the guards before, Su Rongrong felt that his arms were very strong.
However, the current Xinrujun is like a scarecrow with little life, dressed in white covered with blood and burning black marks, which is unbearable.
Su Rongrong was out of breath when she heard that Rong'er was already crying.
It's a dead end.
Even if he had just come to Xu Guo, Su Rongrong could roughly feel that Xu Guo's qi was exhausted. The current Huang clan is just a puppet of others, and the last thing that the lord of a great country likes to have in his vassal country is faith.
When the soldiers are gone, they can be trained again, but when the generals are gone, the army will lose heart.
Getting rid of them and the third major general of Zhenguo was the first blow that Jing and Su gave to Xu Guo.
Su Rongrong couldn't help but sigh again, and said what kind of luck is this!
Even if you are forced to cross, you will be sentenced to death as soon as you pass through, can you carry it more!
Think about those who fight in the house and fight in the palace, it will be a lot of trouble as soon as they cross over, but they will not be hunted down by three countries as soon as they come!
Rong'er, you've really found a good time to perform your secret arts!
Long Yicheng looked at Xin Rujun's injury, and then looked at the black guards at the door, and for the first time he felt a sense of despair.
"In the past, when I was besieged by the Dongyi tribe to the point that there were only a few hundred soldiers left, I was not afraid or willing to retreat, because I was a soldier of the Xu State. But now, the country of Xu is gone, what else can I fight for?"
Xin Rujun's new injury affected the old injury, and he was already angry, and he didn't answer.
Su Rongrong looked at Huang Shangshu and the guards, listened to Rong'er's crying, and unconsciously drew out the game menu.
Su Rong Rong is not dead wear.
She wanted to go home.
Although she is a pessimistic Virgo, she is also a positive and optimistic blood type O. After the authorities were checkmated, she was able to calm down and look for a turnaround.
What's more, she comes with her own game system, and she just hangs up like this before she pulls the wind, she doesn't do it!
Thinking of this, Su Rongrong quietly grabbed the hands of Long Yicheng and Xin Rujun, shook them vigorously, and said in a volume that only the three of them could hear: "Pranayama, wait for the opportunity." ”
Now is not the time to give up, don't throw in the towel!
Long Yicheng and Xin Rujun were both stunned, and there was a firm heartbeat from the place where the hands were held, and for some reason they suddenly felt that the girl in front of them was very reliable, and a wave of courage rose in their hearts.
Both of them had the idea of trying to survive.
Long Yi is not a person who is sad and sad, and when he heard this, he took Xin Rujun's hand and put it in his sleeve robe, and quietly healed his injuries. Xin Rujun also leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and hung his head, secretly exercising.
The man in black, who had been cowering in the corner of the room, noticed the movement here, his eyes flashed, and he breathed silently.
"Take down these people for me, put them in prison, and behead them at noon tomorrow!" Huang Shangshu saw that a few people stopped talking, and thought that his prestige had shaken enough, so he ordered to arrest people.
The guards did not immediately walk over, apparently shocked by the words of the Confucian Emperor just now.
Huang Shangshu was so angry that he stomped his feet and said viciously: "Now I am the secretary of the military department! I am conveying the king's edict! Do you want to resist the decree just for the sake of these death row prisoners!"
After a few seconds of silence, a few people from the Guards walked out and gathered around the room.
"Wait!"
Su Rongrong's voice was not loud, but at the moment when people's hearts were shaken, it was like thunder.
Sure enough, the guards immediately stopped.
Su Rongrong stood up, slapped her skirt a few times, and calmly took two steps forward, blocking the door of the room. I secretly sighed in my heart that this room was good enough, otherwise it would not be her turn to speak, and the group of them would have to be arrested.
Su Rongrong kept a certain distance from the guards, raised his head and met Huang Shangshu's eyes, and asked, "Huang Shangshu came to arrest us by order?"
Natives of another world, never try to force the traverser to death, otherwise I will let you know that even if it is a first-level waste material, the old lady has a way to kill you!
