Chapter 55
Liusi Village on the outskirts of the capital city
There are only a dozen households living in the village, and there is little contact with the outside world, and every household makes a living by farming.Although life is hard, but also carefree and happy.Although the King of War attacked Daxing, the innocent were not harmed, and the villagers of Liushi Village still lived in simplicity.It's just that the gunpowder smoke and the aftermath of the war disturbed the villagers.
Still a little bit terrified, anxious.
In the corner of the village, there are two simple tile-roofed houses. It can be seen that they are old, and they should have a long history.
In the tile-roofed house lived two brothers.
The two brothers, one fat and one thin, are carefree, approachable, and a little silly.
The thin man is an older brother named Changsheng.And the younger brother is a fat man named Junsheng.
The two brothers lost their parents since they were young, and they often sneaked around.Seeing the pity of the two brothers, the villagers turned a blind eye.Unexpectedly, in the past two years, the two brothers made a small fortune at once and returned all the things they took from the villagers before.No, a lot of silver was given to the villagers.
Grandma Dou at the head of the village couldn't help worrying, and told them not to do bad things.
The two brothers shook their heads again and again, assuring that they had done nothing wrong.
This tomb robbery neither harms nor harms anyone, so it's not a bad thing.The two brothers thought so.
In the middle of the night last night, the two brothers knocked on the door of Dr. Wang's house at the end of the village.Doctor Wang used to work in a pharmacy and learned a little bit. Usually, if anyone in the village had a little ailment, he would treat them all.As time went by, he looked quite good, as if he had become a doctor in the village.
Dr. Wang was picked up from his sleep, and he said in a daze, "Longsheng, Junsheng, what's the matter?"
Without saying a word, the two brothers ran into the tile house while supporting Dr. Wang.
In the tile house, a candle lamp was lit.
The dim candlelight dimly illuminates the room, but the walls are bare and there is nothing left.In addition to a table, a few chairs, and a stone bed.Wait, why is there someone on this bed?Dr. Wang rubbed his eyes, took a closer look, and was immediately surprised.
It turned out to be a woman!
The woman had long black hair and was lying on the bed | motionless.Snow-white silk clothes, a small face the size of a palm, pale skin without any blood.It's just that there is a sense of solemnity and peace between the eyebrows.Her lips parted slightly, breathing weakly.It seems that there is no serious problem, but it has not woken up for a long time.
The two brothers didn't understand anything, so they had to invite Dr. Wang here.
Dr. Wang took the pulse, but couldn't find out why.
"Is he dead or not?" Jun Sheng asked in a rough voice with his arms strong in the slightly hot weather.
As soon as the words fell, Jun Sheng was hit by Chang Sheng.
"Ouch! Brother, why did you hit me!" Jun Sheng complained, holding his head.
Chang Sheng glanced at him, and looked at the unconscious woman, "Don't say that word, taboo!"
Jun Sheng immediately understood, changed his words and asked again, "Doctor Wang, is there any way to save him?"
"It's strange, she has no pulse, but she is breathing. What's the reason?" Dr. Wang shook his head, and said suspiciously, "If she is alive, how could she have no pulse? But she is breathing again, she is obviously not dead What a strange thing! Where did this girl come from?"
Chang Sheng and Jun Sheng glanced at each other, mumbled a few words such as "It's getting late" and "Go back to sleep" indistinctly, and took Doctor Wang back to his home again.Turning back to the tile-roofed house, the two of them closed the door behind their backs, staring at the sleeping woman in a daze, not knowing what to do.
"Brother." Jun Sheng shouted.
Changsheng let out a "hey" and suggested, "Where did it come from, why not send it?"
"She's still breathing, shall we send her to that coffin?" Jun Sheng felt bad, shaking his head and said, "No! No!"
"Then what should we do?" Changsheng stared dryly.
The two brothers fell to the ground and sat with their backs.They were really tired, thinking about it, and fell asleep.

Ghost?Nether, where are you?
In the darkness, Mingzhu kept calling Nether.Although she couldn't see it, she knew that she had left that body again.She was no longer Pearl.Could it be that the spiritual power is not enough?Why didn't she return to modern times?Ghost?Nether where are you?Ghost?Answer me quickly!
In an instant, a white light flashed in front of his eyes, which was so dazzling.
Mingzhu narrowed her eyes, and through her long and narrow eyelids, she saw You Ming sitting on the object of the crescent moon, her fiery red hair was more colorful than before.He suddenly moved in front of her, sitting cross-legged in the air, "Master, it's great to see you again."
"You Ming, let me go back soon!" Mingzhu shouted anxiously.
"Report to Master, it's not working for now." You Ming shook his head and replied.
Mingzhu seemed to have expected that he would say this, took a deep breath, and calmed down, "How long will it take before I can go back?"
"The deity's body and soul have been locked for too long, and there is no way to possess it for a while." You Ming shrugged helplessly, and then said worriedly, "It's better to go back to modern times first. You are now in two time and space, and your soul is easily lost. A little If you make a mistake, you will never be reborn forever."
"I don't want to go back to modern times! Once I go back, I don't know how many years have passed between him and me!" Mingzhu frowned.
"Owner……"
"I don't want to! I don't want to miss him, I don't want to." Mingzhu's voice was already choked up.They have missed too much, even if they will never be reborn, she is not afraid.
You Ming fell silent all of a sudden, because she felt pain in her heart, so he also suddenly felt the pain.
"You Ming, I am ordering you now. Do your best to let me go back to my real body." Mingzhu said firmly, having made a decision, she shouted coldly, "I am your master!"
"I know what to do!" You Ming slowly closed his eyes, chanting words.
Mingzhu also closed her eyes, feeling a tearing pain.Hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste, all sensory perception gradually disappears.Only the feeling of the heart is left, and the heart is free to think...
The capital, the palace.
It is the hot summer in August and the weather is hot.The sun was scorching the earth hotly, and there was not a single cloud in the blue sky.The people in the capital were already too hot to resist, and they were listlessly sitting in the shade to enjoy the cool.This hot day has lasted for half a month, and the water in the moat is gradually drying up.
"Hey! God! Please let it rain!"
"Yes! It's such a hot day, how can we live if it doesn't rain again!"
"God bless, heaven bless!"
The common people looked up at the sky from time to time, although they knew it was useless, they were still expecting a miracle.
Suddenly, a group of people rushed in outside the gate of the capital, galloped past like the wind, and hurried towards the palace.The horse's hooves kicked up the dust, which flew up for a while.I haven't seen the person clearly, but they have already disappeared, leaving only a few dots.The common people looked around curiously, and they didn't know who yelled, "It's the King of War!"
The king of war has returned to the city?
The common people all recalled the scene when King Zhan attacked the city, their scalps were numb and they couldn't help shivering.
At Wuzhong Gate, Feng Zhanxiu rushed into the palace first on a black horse, followed by Zhongli and the twelve cavalry.Feng Zhanxiu ignored it and rode his horse towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.The rest of the people stopped at the Wuzhong Gate, watching his tall and straight figure go further and further away.Everyone's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition emerged in their hearts.
"The King of War returns to the palace!" The eunuchs' high-pitched voices were repeated again and again.
The Hall of Supreme Harmony, the main hall where the courtiers go to court to discuss affairs, is also the authority where the king of a country coordinates strategies and looks at the world.In the main hall, Yun Ni had been waiting for a long time, when a majestic figure flashed in front of her eyes.
"My lord!" She immediately knelt down on the ground and shouted respectfully.
Feng Zhanxiu's expression was indifferent and solemn, and his purple attire made him even more evil.When he saw what Yun Ni was holding in his hand, he couldn't help being startled.After a while, he took another sudden step, rushing to her in a few strides.With trembling hands, he took it from her—the jet-black urn.
He lowered his head to look at the urn, and asked indifferently, "Whose."
This question was obviously asked knowingly, but the last word was already hoarse.
"Princess." Yun Ni replied softly.
When Feng Zhanxiu heard this, he couldn't help but took a few steps back.He stopped again, as if he didn't believe it, and suddenly laughed out loud, sadly.Holding the urn in his arms, he turned around with great difficulty and ran out of the hall.
Blink and disappear.
"My lord!" Yun Ni yelled worriedly, and wanted to chase after him, but she couldn't find him.
※※※
Feng Zhanxiu ran all the way to Pingle Palace, his eyes were bloodthirsty red, and his expression was terrifying.When everyone saw him, they were startled, and immediately knelt down on the ground, not daring to breathe, and before they had time to say "My Lord is auspicious", he roared gloomily, "Get out of here!"
Everyone scattered like birds and beasts one after another, not daring to stay any longer.
Feng Zhanxiu held the urn with one hand, and suddenly fell silent.
In the entire Pingle Palace, only he was left alone.It seemed that he was the only one left in this world.
Feng Zhanxiu slowed down and walked around the Pingle Palace in a daze.
No, no, without her.There is nowhere for her.nowhere.He searched for so long, but couldn't find them all.He was really lucky, as long as he didn't see her body or her ashes for a day, he wouldn't give up.So he sent people to keep looking, keep looking.
Why?He stared at the urn in his arms, turned his head like crazy and ran out of Pingle Palace, towards the imperial garden.
In the pool of the Imperial Garden, water lilies are blooming in full bloom.The green lotus leaves are continuous, dotted with enchanting lotus flowers.With the wind blowing past, the lotus swayed slightly, rippling on the lotus leaves, like a beautiful splash-ink painting.He walked on the lotus and flew to the highest eaves.
Feng Zhanxiu looked at the entire imperial garden, and his eyes stopped on the swing, but she still couldn't be seen.
In the end, only the jet-black urn was in his hand.
He raised the corners of his lips and walked towards the cold palace with a smile.
In the cold palace, it was lonely, but the situation of that year could be vaguely seen in front of my eyes, vividly, so clearly.
This cold palace used to house the person he wanted to take away, but he could never take away again.
Someone told him, it's okay, you can take her away.Why did you say that to him, and why didn't you keep your promise.Why did you choose to run away from him, why did you throw him down after warming him.Why did he have the illusion again and again, as if she was always there.
Didn't you promise to stay by his side?
Feng Zhanxiu hugged the urn, raised his head and roared, "Ah—"
"Ye Mingzhu, come out for me! Ye Mingzhu! Come out for me!" He roared mournfully, his roar shaking the sky, "If there are really ghosts and gods in this world, come out! Why don't you come out! Whether it's a beautiful boy or a court lady , no matter if it's a man or a woman, no matter who it is, come out!"
"Why don't you come out? Why?"
"..."
Feng Zhanxiu roared indiscriminately, and the deep reverberation circled the entire palace.
He fell down and sat on the ground, holding the urn in a daze, motionless.
But after a while, Zhongli and the others came anxiously looking for the sound.
They finally found him in this cold palace, and he just sat on the ground like this, regardless of the wind and the sun.The Feng Zhanxiu in their memory is the heroic, calm and calm war king.He used to think that nothing in this world would bother him and stop him.
But now, with such Feng Zhanxiu, such a desolate and hesitant look.
It was something they had never seen before.
It turns out that no matter how strong a person is, there will be sad times.
Zhongli took a step forward and shouted in a deep voice, "My lord."
"Get lost!" Feng Zhanxiu grabbed a handful of dust and threw it at him.
Zhongli was alert and dodged.And the dust hit the pillar, and the pillar collapsed with a "boom--".
Everyone was shocked.
"All to this king, get out of here, if you get half a step closer, you will be killed!" Feng Zhan Xiutou didn't look back, and spit out these few words in a haze.He just stroked the urn, reluctantly.
"My lord!"
"Subordinates implore the lord!"
It is useless to allow Zhongli, Yun Ni and the twelve cavalry to kneel down and beg for each other.If it made him angry, he would pick up the dust and sprinkle it indiscriminately.Three of the pillars supporting the palace were knocked down by his internal strength. Everyone was worried that the palace would collapse, so they dared not persuade them any more and had to leave.
Feng Zhanxiu just sat in this cold palace for a whole night, he didn't eat or drink, and didn't open his mouth to speak.
Just hugging the urn, silently answering.
At night, Zhongli stood in the distance quietly guarding.
After the scorching heat of the day, the residual heat of high temperature remains at night.The cold palace collapsed with countless pieces of sand and gravel, making it a mess.In the dead of night, the moon is in the sky, and the stars are twinkling with light.In the darkness, Feng Zhanxiu's hidden figure was vaguely shrouded in a layer of moonlight, but he seemed even more lonely.
Zhongli's eyes were sour from staring at him, and he was tired from the journey, so he couldn't help but close his eyes.
But when he opened his eyes again, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Feng Zhanxiu's originally black hair suddenly turned silvery white overnight.
His head turned white overnight.
"My lord!" Yun Ni murmured, stunned.
In fact, last night, after Yun Ni and the Twelve Cavalrymen left under the persuasion of Zhongli, none of them fell asleep.After a sleepless night, the sky came at dawn.When they saw that Feng Zhanxiu's hair had turned white overnight, they all froze in place.
How, how, how.
My lord, my lord's hair turned gray all night...
Feng Zhanxiu stood up slowly, his feet were numb and he lost consciousness.As soon as he got up, he almost fell to the ground, but he desperately protected the urn and hugged it carefully in his arms.He breathed a sigh of relief, as if it was a false alarm.Then he turned around and looked at the crowd.
"Let's attack Daicheng today! This king wants to take down Daxing completely! Yun Ni defends the city!" He shouted in a deep voice, carefully choosing his words.
"Yes!" The twelve cavalrymen knelt down and replied in unison.
Feng Zhanxiu took a step forward and walked past them like this.
His indifferent posture made people feel that the person who yelled wildly yesterday was not like him.
But everyone knew in their hearts that they might have reached a point of sadness, so they didn't even respond to their sadness, and buried it deep in their hearts.Perhaps from now on, no one can make him like this again.There is no one there anymore.Because that person is no longer there, turned into ashes.
Feng Zhanxiu walked out of their sight step by step.
"You guys go first!" Zhongli said in a deep voice, the twelve cavalrymen looked at each other and set off immediately.
When the group left, Zhongli turned his head to look at Yun Ni, and said quietly, "Let's go, the real war will start now."
Yun Ni didn't speak, but tears were streaming down her face, unceasingly.She suppressed the sobs and didn't make a sound, but her shoulders couldn't help trembling slightly.Zhongli walked a few steps, then turned around and walked to her side.He hesitated for a while, took out a handkerchief from his arms, and finally handed it to her.
She lowered her head, tears fell on the back of his hand, and walked calmly, "No need."
Zhongli took back his handkerchief and squeezed it tightly, silently following behind her.
An hour later, the Zhanwang army once again raised troops to attack Daicheng.

State government residence in Daijo
Outside the mansion, a soldier came galloping on horseback.And in his hand, he was carrying a blood-stained object.
The soldiers rushed into the mansion, bowed their heads and stepped into the main hall.
In the main hall, Dong Xiaotian and the ministers had been waiting for a long time.He sent someone to send the secret letter written by himself before, and he should be back in time.If you can't wait for news for a day, worry about it for a day.He was afraid that even this last move would not work, and he was even more determined to fight against the wind.
How much is true and how much is false about Mingzhu.
If he still remembers the past friendship, he will definitely agree to exchange conditions.
in case……
Dong Xiaotian shook his head, not wanting to think about it.
"Your Majesty!" The soldier rushed into the hall and knelt down on the ground, lifting the bloody thing with both hands.
The ministers all looked at it, and immediately understood what the blood-stained thing was.
Dong Xiaotian fell into the bottomless abyss with one heart, silently.He didn't think about affection at all, he didn't think about it at all.Hehe, Feng Zhanxiu, I'm afraid he has been waiting for this day for a long time.
The ministers murmured something, but he couldn't hear them all. He just stood up and walked out of the hall.
Dong Xiaotian walked slowly towards the East Garden alone.
In the wing room of the East Garden, Liu Shuiyao was so worried that she couldn't concentrate.
After getting Dong Xiaotian's promise that day, she waited quietly.She sews clothes for Xiao Xuanyi every day, hoping that one day Xiao Xuanyi will suddenly return to her, and she will be able to wear these clothes made by herself for the child.There are more clothes one by one, but Xiao Xuanyi has been missing for a long time.
After careful calculation, it has been two months since Xiao Xuanyi disappeared.
"Crackling——" the door of the wing room was pushed open.
Qiao'er came in with the soup, she put the tray on the table, and said softly, "Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine."
Liu Shuiyao was reciting the prayer beads to pray for the blessing of the gods, but suddenly she felt flustered, the red string stringing the beads snapped instantly, and the beads in her hand fell one by one, as if heralding something bad.She lowered her head, not feeling frightened, and murmured, "The beads are broken, the beads are broken..."
"Your Majesty, this servant is here to pick it up." Qiao'er squatted down hastily, and reached out to pick up the beads one by one.
Liu Shuiyao stood up, walked to the window, looked up at the sky, and silently closed her eyes, "Xuan Yi..."
She opened her eyes again, and turned her head to see Dong Xiaotian standing quietly outside the room.She didn't know when he came, but he looked at her from afar and smiled warmly as before.In memory, all his tenderness seemed to be given to another person.But fortunately, she still got half of it.
This is enough.
The only thing she hopes now is that Xuan Yi is safe and sound, and that Zhan Xiu can let Xiao Tian go.
Dong Xiaotian walked up to her slowly, looked at her and smiled faintly.
If time can be turned back, choose again, Mingzhu, which one do you choose.
In the hottest month of August, the army of the king of war raised troops to attack Emperor Xiao and attacked Daicheng.
The journey has lasted for half a month, and the front is about to be the last battle in the past two years.The king's flag, which marks the word "war", flutters in the wind.In this battle, the King of War led 20 elite soldiers to attack the last city.The rumble of the drum hit the hearts of the soldiers, and the whole army was even more imposing, raising their swords and shouting in unison.
"War King World! Battle King World!"
The crowd and the twelve cavalry rode their horses and stood in front of the army, their brows were awe-inspiring.
On top of the bloody BMW headed in the middle, there is a black and unruly figure.The sun is slowly shining, Feng Zhanxiu is wearing iron armor and wearing military boots facing the sky.He held a sharp sword in one hand, squinted his eagle eyes and burst into light, suddenly raised the sword, and shouted towards the city in front of him, "Attack—the city—!"
"Kill!" The soldiers also yelled, and rushed towards Daicheng not far away.
For a moment, the horseshoes kicked up dust, and the soldiers were like ants.
Inside the mansion in Daicheng, Dong Xiaotian and the ministers were anxious and worried.Dong Xiaotian looked outside the hall, frowning and waiting for the soldiers to return.He knew that Feng Zhanxiu was attacking again, and he also knew that he might be doomed and killed this time.He didn't even care about Mingzhu, what else would he care about.
"Report—the King of War's army is attacking!" The soldier strode into the hall and knelt down on the ground.
When everyone heard it, they felt that a huge rock was pressing on their hearts, and they couldn't breathe.
Dong Xiaotian responded silently, with a calm expression.He raised his hand and waved it lightly, and said lightly, "Go down, I know."
"Yes!" The soldier retreated again.
Seeing this, the ministers played fiercely and chaotically, trying to find a way to stop Feng Zhanxiu from attacking the city, or to find out a way so that he could let them live.At this point, if he doesn't break the city, I'm afraid it's delusional.
Whether these people can live is still a question.
"Your Majesty! Why don't you open the city gate and surrender?" Liu Qing was restless, he stood up and said in a deep voice.
He was anxious to save his life, and in his panic he could only think of such a bad idea.Although Feng Zhanxiu was a rebellious person, but at least there was a relationship between the Liu family and him.He also thought about how good he was at Feng Zhan before, and when he was thrown into prison by Emperor Hong, Shuiyao personally went to intercede for him.
For various reasons, he was willing to take this dangerous bet.
At this moment, life is the most important thing!
"Prime Minister Liu! What are you talking about!" Jiang Zaiyuan immediately yelled, and retorted, "How did this happen? The emperor is the true son of Daxing, how can he surrender to the traitors? Your majesty! I think I can't continue to sit and wait for death! "
The officials were at a loss as to what to do, they stood up at the same time, waiting for his decision, "Your Majesty!"
Dong Xiaotian never responded, and chose to ignore the questions from the officials.
"Your Majesty! You should say something!" Jiang Zaiyuan shouted again.
"The whole city is on guard, and the left and right forwards are dispatched to attack!" Dong Xiaotian glanced at everyone one by one, and said carefully.
※※※
The soldiers in Daicheng plus the soldiers brought out from the palace were less than 20. Using [-] soldiers to meet an army of [-] is almost the same as hitting a stone with a pebble.Feng Zhanxiu would lead such a large army to suppress it, which shows how decisive his determination is.If you don't take Daicheng, you will never give up!
Ten thousand soldiers stayed in the city, and the remaining [-] soldiers were divided into two groups, each led by the left and right vanguards.
The soldiers of the King of War Army and the soldiers of the Emperor Xiao fought in Daicheng, and the King of War Army was superior in terms of morale and combat.It didn't take long for Daicheng to get a report from the soldiers. The [-] soldiers led by the left and right vanguards had died in battle, and the vanguard general was beheaded by the Zhanwang army.
A bloody storm, a belated catastrophe, was as urgent and fierce as a storm.
Seven days later, the gate of Daicheng was finally breached.
The King of War army rushed into the city and was torn to death with the remaining [-] soldiers.The whole city was in a mess, with dead bodies everywhere.And that bloody smell filled the entire city, with cries and wailing all over the sky.The soldiers brutally slaughtered regardless of everything, regardless of men, women and children, and killed everyone in this city without mercy.
Since Daicheng is backed by mountains and surrounded by water on three sides, there is only one exit from the city gate.
This is the last city in Daxing, and it is also the most remote city. There is no escape route at all.
The gates of the city were opened wide, and the soldiers opened the road to welcome the king into the city.
Under the lead of the twelve cavalrymen, Feng Zhanxiu drove the BMW slowly into the city.The armor was not stained with any blood, and he indifferently faced the corpses all over the city and the crying people, his handsome face was hazy and ruthless.Just by moving your mouth casually, you can make people go from life to death in an instant.
The avenue guarded by soldiers continued to the governor's mansion.
The mansion has been surrounded, and it has not been breached yet due to General Zhongli's order.
However, the courtiers in the mansion had already surrendered and bowed to the ground one after another.
It's just that Emperor Xiao was not seen alone.
Liu Qing saw Feng Zhanxiu on the BMW, and immediately knelt down and walked towards him, shouting, "My lord!"
"Don't worry, this king will kill you naturally." Feng Zhanxiu raised the corners of his lips and whispered such a sentence.
When Liu Qing heard this, she collapsed powerlessly on the ground.
At the end of August and the beginning of September, the final battle against Daxing ended.
From the guards down to the servants in the mansion, all disappeared, only Dong Xiaotian, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, was left alone, sitting alone in the main hall, a tall and ethereal figure.He was waiting, waiting for Feng Zhanxiu to kill him.Perhaps, this day should have been staged two years ago.
If he hadn't supported himself as the throne at that time, then he would have rebelled.
Feng Zhanxiu, you are brave and brave, indeed invincible.You are deliberate and meticulous, and no one can match your thoughtfulness.Why did you support him at the time, why did you pretend to love Mingzhu very much.
Suddenly a person walked into the hall.
Dong Xiaotian looked at the person coming, and said softly, "Why didn't you leave, what are you still doing here. Let's go."
Wearing a white dress, Liu Shuiyao looked more and more frail.She knew that Daicheng had been breached by Feng Zhanxiu, and she knew that coming here was the last step.They had nowhere to go, they were cornered.There is a cliff in front of you, and a fire pit behind you. It doesn't matter which way you go.
She put on a white dress to prove her determination.
If he couldn't survive, then she couldn't either.
It's just that she doesn't know if Feng Zhanxiu will be lenient and let Xiaotian and the child go.
Liu Shuiyao walked slowly in front of him, knelt down and knelt down on the ground, she lowered her head, her soft female voice was pleasant to hear, "Wherever the emperor goes, the concubine will go there."
Her voice was calm, as was her heart.
Since she was a child, making unreasonable troubles is what she is best at, and being disgusted is the result she got.She always thought that the person she deeply liked was Feng Zhanxiu, but why did she feel pain in her heart every time she looked at Dong Xiaotian's figure.Even if Feng Zhanxiu was holding Mingzhu in front of her at that time, she didn't feel that much pain.
She was suddenly confused.
When they met at that time, she was sad because of Feng Zhanxiu's indifference, or because of Dong Xiaotian's different treatment.
Forget it, I'm afraid I can't tell.
Dong Xiaotian stretched out his hand to help him up, and said in a deep voice, "You go!"
Liu Shuiyao didn't speak, just shook her head.
"I don't love you! I haven't loved you for a day! Do you know that? There is only Mingzhu in my heart from the beginning to the end! Yes, I love Mingzhu! You go!" Seeing that she refused to leave, Dong Xiaotian shouted angrily , "Why don't you go? What are you doing here? Don't you want to watch me get my head chopped off by your beloved Brother Zhanxiu?"
Liu Shuiyao still did not speak, stubborn to the end.
"Hehe." Dong Xiaotian chuckled softly, and laughed weakly for a while, "You go."
"Xiaotian..." Liu Shuiyao shouted in a trembling voice, choking on her sobs.
Dong Xiaotian stood up, lowered his head and warned, "Promise me, if the child is still alive, he will be brought up. Stay away from this bloody, far away from the turmoil, and live an ordinary life."
"Xiaotian, nothing will happen. Xiaotian." Liu Shuiyao finally cried out, tears streaming down from her eyes.
Dong Xiaotian reached out hesitantly to wipe away her tears, "He won't kill you, don't beg for me. Also, remember what I just said." After he finished speaking, he suddenly touched her acupuncture points.Then, he hugged her gently, helped her turn around and sat on the chair.
Liu Shuiyao couldn't speak, couldn't move, but heard him whispering in her ear, "I owe you a lot. I'm sorry."
She widened her eyes in astonishment, and saw him smiling warmly.
There were heavy footsteps behind him.
Dong Xiaotian looked back unhurriedly, so he saw Feng Zhanxiu.He was dressed in armor, and his whole body was domineering and fierce, showing an evil charm.And the corners of his mouth outlined a calm arc, with a smile that was not a smile, it seemed to be mocking his own cowardice and desperation at the moment, and mocking his own extermination back then.
Winners and losers, he has always understood this truth.
It's just that he still has confusion in his heart, so he needs to know the answer before he dies.
All the people and the twelve cavalry rushed into the hall one after another, completely surrounding the main hall.
Dong Xiaotian looked at him, and said in a deep voice, "Feng Zhanxiu, did you kill the father!" Back then, he also identified him based on the half of "account".Because of his fear of his power and talent, he could not be kept.If he hadn't insisted on going his own way, would history have been rewritten.
"Haha." Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and laughed, and said ferociously, "It was indeed the king who killed him, so what."
"You!" Although Dong Xiaotian was prepared, he might hear such an answer.But at this moment, he really heard it, and he was annoyed and angry again, "Feng Zhanxiu! Since you killed it, why did you lie to Mingzhu!"
That day in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he asked Mingzhu a question.He asked her, are you Mingzhu, or Feng Zhanxiu's wife.He let her make her own choice, choose to be on his side or on Feng Zhanxiu's side.But she listened to Feng Zhanxiu's words and chose him.Her choice was wrong, she believed in the wrong person, and chose the wrong person!
Dong Xiaotian stared at him fiercely, and said word by word, "Feng Zhanxiu! You are rebellious, regicide and treason! You will have retribution!"
"Kill the king? Treason?" Feng Zhanxiu's smile condensed on the corner of his lips, and he said coldly, "The entire Nine Kingdoms Continent should belong to this king, and the Daxing Dynasty should be damned! All your descendants surnamed Dong should go to hell! Ben The king is going to kill you all, treason? Retribution? Come! This king is waiting, when will retribution!"
Dong Xiaotian was taken aback by his menacing aura, the feeling was exactly the same as that day.
He met gods and killed gods, met demons and killed demons with crazy arrogance.
"Who are you! Feng Zhanxiu! Who are you!" Dong Xiaotian questioned, his hatred was too strong.
Feng Zhanxiu held a pitch-black jar with one hand, and said casually, "The owner of Qin Palace is my concubine Mu. Who do you think this king is?"
Qin Palace?He is the son of the little princess?So, isn't he a descendant of Daxing?
Dong Xiaotian was already in chaos, and asked in confusion, "If Princess Qin is your Concubine Mu, then you are a descendant of our master! Why are you doing this!"
"Because you all deserve to die!" Feng Zhanxiu spit out these words gloomily.
Dong Xiaotian clenched his fists, and said through gritted teeth, "Feng Zhanxiu! You will die! Mingzhu is watching from the sky, and she will not forgive you! She knows it underground, and she must hate Jiuquan!"
"The person who will die with regret is Dong Yanhong!" Feng Zhanxiu said quietly, hugging the jar and gently stroking it, "She has been by my side all the time, and she watched me kill all those damned people!"
Dong Xiaotian suddenly stared at the pitch-black jar in his arms, and suddenly lost his soul.He actually burned her?He couldn't bear to turn her into ashes, so he secretly hid her in the cold palace.He actually burned her like this?Burned to ashes!Never, never see her face again.
"Haha!" Dong Xiaotian laughed out loud, held his breath between his fingers, and hit the jar with a flick of his fingers.
Only a "bang -" was heard, and the urn burst, and the ashes in the urn flew into the air.Dong Xiaotian waved his sleeve again, and the wind in his palm swirled the air, blowing the scattered ashes to the outside of the hall.Suddenly a gust of wind blew the ashes to the sky, into the distant sky.
Feng Zhanxiu was taken aback, his calm expression suddenly changed into bewildered.
He stretched out his hand to grab it, but only caught a cloud of air, and his palm was stained with a little ashes, gray ashes.He looked up at the sky outside the hall, and there was no trace of it.He didn't even have time to catch her, and he didn't even keep the last of her, and immediately roared like crazy.
Everyone was shocked by the roar and their ears were ringing.Lord...
Sitting on the chair, Liu Shuiyao panicked even more, but she couldn't speak.
"Dong Xiaotian! You really deserve to die!" Feng Zhanxiu Mode turned around, his eagle eyes were red.Stretching out his long arm, he hit him hard with all his might.His moves were fierce, and he wanted the other party's life with every move, without showing any affection.Dong Xiaotian couldn't resist, and was gradually defeated. He was hit head-on in the chest and spit out a mouthful of blood.
With his palm, Dong Xiaotian's internal organs were all displaced, and his whole body froze.
Feng Zhanxiu, like Shura, raised his hand and directly covered the top of his head.
"Mingzhu..." Dong Xiaotian murmured, blood was left on the top of his head, he closed his eyes, and died.
Liu Shuiyao was sitting right behind him, but she still couldn't speak.Her tears kept flowing from her eye sockets, she kept crying until her eyes were red, and she cried until all her tears dried up.Seeing his blood flowing from the top of his head, he fell to the ground. She couldn't bear the blow and passed out.
Xiaotian...
"Hehe, hehehe." Feng Zhanxiu smiled lightly, looked at the fragments on the ground, turned around and walked out of the hall again.
The crowd and the twelve cavalrymen looked at his tall figure and felt lonely.
Feng Zhanxiu walked out of the main hall, looked up at the blue sky, his heart seemed to be pinched by someone, and he couldn't breathe due to the pain.Suddenly, something slowly flowed out of the eye sockets.The liquid rolled over his mouth, and he tasted salty.He reached out to wipe it lightly, and looked down at the wet traces in his hand.
Is this tears?
Will he cry too.
I used to think that I would never cry again, that I had long forgotten the taste of tears.From the moment he crawled out of the corpse, he told himself that there was no one in this world who could make him cry.Because he died long ago, on that day.From then on, he was just a man with no heart.
Perhaps, he was never considered a human being.Hehe, he doesn't know what he is either.
He only needs hatred, but why is he sad and heartbroken.
Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and did not blink, he avoided himself, those were not tears.But she had already been reduced to ashes, blown away by the wind, and could no longer find a trace of breath.No more, no more of her.Even the ashes are gone.He opened his eyes sorely, but the tears flowed more and more.
Night Pearl, Night Pearl, Night Pearl.
The originally clear sky suddenly became cloudy, and countless dark clouds gathered.The thunder rumbled, and a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, as if cutting the sky in half.A line of rain fell from the sky, and another, and another.In the blink of an eye, the sky began to rain cats and dogs.
But the rainwater turned out to be red, like fresh blood, but it didn't smell fishy.
The rain fell on Feng Zhanxiu's body and wet his hair. The black hair dyed with special potions such as Polygonum multiflorum was washed away by the rain, revealing silver hair.With disheveled hair, he let the rain wash himself and wash his painful heart.At this moment, I finally admitted that I was crying.
Mingzhu, when you are afraid of the dark, who will be by your side.
※※※
A red rain suddenly fell from the sky, and the whole red rain lasted for three days and three nights.The rain soaked the earth, but the crops in the field did not drown, but all withered.Seeing that there was no harvest, the common people cried immediately.It's already September, and if we wait a little longer, the harvest will come in autumn.Now it's all destroyed.
"Hey! There are so many strange things, the sky is red and raining!" Doctor Wang looked at the withered crops, but he couldn't understand the reason.
On the contrary, it was Granny Dou, leaning on an old wooden crutch, shaking her head and sighing, "Many years ago, it also rained red."
"Really?" asked the villagers beside him curiously.
All the elders in Liu Shi Village died or got sick, and now only Granny Dou is left.Grandma Dou is nearly seventy years old and is the oldest person in the village.Grandma Dou nodded, and said with emotion, "It was raining at that time, and I heard that the devil was crying."
"Devil King?" Everyone froze, didn't they?Are there still demons in this world?
"Because he fabled that he was going to slaughter the nine kingdoms, so he was called the Demon King." Grandma Dou arched her back, recalling the past.
Jun Sheng suddenly ran out of the tile house, ran to Chang Sheng and said something.Changsheng looked surprised, and glanced at his younger brother suspiciously.Then the two smiled at everyone and hurried back to their tile house.After walking a little further, Chang Sheng asked in surprise, "Isn't it? You said that woman is awake?"
"Yes, brother, go and have a look." Jun Sheng replied in a low voice.
Because of the rain for three days, the old tile-roofed house leaked, and the rain fell into the tile-roofed house.On the bed made of stones, the girl was soaked by the rain, and her body, which was originally cold, became slightly warm.She felt physically exhausted, and a ghostly cry hovered in her ears: Master, the coldness of the ice porch has dissipated.
Mingzhu opened her eyes sleepily, and saw two strange faces.
A fat man, a thin man.
She tried to speak, but found that she had no strength.Her throat was so dry, she struggled to utter a word, "Water!"
Jun Sheng immediately poured her a glass of water, and his elder brother Chang Sheng helped her up and fed her the water.After drinking the water, the two brothers stood on the edge of the bed again, looking at her stupidly.Jun Sheng rubbed against his elder brother, and then Chang Sheng asked, "You... who are you?"
"I want to see the King of War!" Mingzhu said softly.
I want to see you……
At the beginning of September, King Zhan captured Daicheng, killed Emperor Xiao, and completely captured the Daxing Dynasty.
During his lifetime, the first emperor gave birth to six sons.But sickness, death, all of them didn't end well, and in the end only Xiaodi's son was left.With a trace of Emperor Xiao, Daxing can be regarded as exhausted.It is said that even Shu City, the vassal land of Prince Rui, was occupied by Nanchang Kingdom, and Prince Rui was killed long ago.
Therefore, Daxing has since collapsed.
As for the remaining princesses of Daxing, they were all imprisoned in the deep palace, never to see the light of day again.
(End of this chapter)
Liusi Village on the outskirts of the capital city
There are only a dozen households living in the village, and there is little contact with the outside world, and every household makes a living by farming.Although life is hard, but also carefree and happy.Although the King of War attacked Daxing, the innocent were not harmed, and the villagers of Liushi Village still lived in simplicity.It's just that the gunpowder smoke and the aftermath of the war disturbed the villagers.
Still a little bit terrified, anxious.
In the corner of the village, there are two simple tile-roofed houses. It can be seen that they are old, and they should have a long history.
In the tile-roofed house lived two brothers.
The two brothers, one fat and one thin, are carefree, approachable, and a little silly.
The thin man is an older brother named Changsheng.And the younger brother is a fat man named Junsheng.
The two brothers lost their parents since they were young, and they often sneaked around.Seeing the pity of the two brothers, the villagers turned a blind eye.Unexpectedly, in the past two years, the two brothers made a small fortune at once and returned all the things they took from the villagers before.No, a lot of silver was given to the villagers.
Grandma Dou at the head of the village couldn't help worrying, and told them not to do bad things.
The two brothers shook their heads again and again, assuring that they had done nothing wrong.
This tomb robbery neither harms nor harms anyone, so it's not a bad thing.The two brothers thought so.
In the middle of the night last night, the two brothers knocked on the door of Dr. Wang's house at the end of the village.Doctor Wang used to work in a pharmacy and learned a little bit. Usually, if anyone in the village had a little ailment, he would treat them all.As time went by, he looked quite good, as if he had become a doctor in the village.
Dr. Wang was picked up from his sleep, and he said in a daze, "Longsheng, Junsheng, what's the matter?"
Without saying a word, the two brothers ran into the tile house while supporting Dr. Wang.
In the tile house, a candle lamp was lit.
The dim candlelight dimly illuminates the room, but the walls are bare and there is nothing left.In addition to a table, a few chairs, and a stone bed.Wait, why is there someone on this bed?Dr. Wang rubbed his eyes, took a closer look, and was immediately surprised.
It turned out to be a woman!
The woman had long black hair and was lying on the bed | motionless.Snow-white silk clothes, a small face the size of a palm, pale skin without any blood.It's just that there is a sense of solemnity and peace between the eyebrows.Her lips parted slightly, breathing weakly.It seems that there is no serious problem, but it has not woken up for a long time.
The two brothers didn't understand anything, so they had to invite Dr. Wang here.
Dr. Wang took the pulse, but couldn't find out why.
"Is he dead or not?" Jun Sheng asked in a rough voice with his arms strong in the slightly hot weather.
As soon as the words fell, Jun Sheng was hit by Chang Sheng.
"Ouch! Brother, why did you hit me!" Jun Sheng complained, holding his head.
Chang Sheng glanced at him, and looked at the unconscious woman, "Don't say that word, taboo!"
Jun Sheng immediately understood, changed his words and asked again, "Doctor Wang, is there any way to save him?"
"It's strange, she has no pulse, but she is breathing. What's the reason?" Dr. Wang shook his head, and said suspiciously, "If she is alive, how could she have no pulse? But she is breathing again, she is obviously not dead What a strange thing! Where did this girl come from?"
Chang Sheng and Jun Sheng glanced at each other, mumbled a few words such as "It's getting late" and "Go back to sleep" indistinctly, and took Doctor Wang back to his home again.Turning back to the tile-roofed house, the two of them closed the door behind their backs, staring at the sleeping woman in a daze, not knowing what to do.
"Brother." Jun Sheng shouted.
Changsheng let out a "hey" and suggested, "Where did it come from, why not send it?"
"She's still breathing, shall we send her to that coffin?" Jun Sheng felt bad, shaking his head and said, "No! No!"
"Then what should we do?" Changsheng stared dryly.
The two brothers fell to the ground and sat with their backs.They were really tired, thinking about it, and fell asleep.
※※※
Ghost?Nether, where are you?
In the darkness, Mingzhu kept calling Nether.Although she couldn't see it, she knew that she had left that body again.She was no longer Pearl.Could it be that the spiritual power is not enough?Why didn't she return to modern times?Ghost?Nether where are you?Ghost?Answer me quickly!
In an instant, a white light flashed in front of his eyes, which was so dazzling.
Mingzhu narrowed her eyes, and through her long and narrow eyelids, she saw You Ming sitting on the object of the crescent moon, her fiery red hair was more colorful than before.He suddenly moved in front of her, sitting cross-legged in the air, "Master, it's great to see you again."
"You Ming, let me go back soon!" Mingzhu shouted anxiously.
"Report to Master, it's not working for now." You Ming shook his head and replied.
Mingzhu seemed to have expected that he would say this, took a deep breath, and calmed down, "How long will it take before I can go back?"
"The deity's body and soul have been locked for too long, and there is no way to possess it for a while." You Ming shrugged helplessly, and then said worriedly, "It's better to go back to modern times first. You are now in two time and space, and your soul is easily lost. A little If you make a mistake, you will never be reborn forever."
"I don't want to go back to modern times! Once I go back, I don't know how many years have passed between him and me!" Mingzhu frowned.
"Owner……"
"I don't want to! I don't want to miss him, I don't want to." Mingzhu's voice was already choked up.They have missed too much, even if they will never be reborn, she is not afraid.
You Ming fell silent all of a sudden, because she felt pain in her heart, so he also suddenly felt the pain.
"You Ming, I am ordering you now. Do your best to let me go back to my real body." Mingzhu said firmly, having made a decision, she shouted coldly, "I am your master!"
"I know what to do!" You Ming slowly closed his eyes, chanting words.
Mingzhu also closed her eyes, feeling a tearing pain.Hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste, all sensory perception gradually disappears.Only the feeling of the heart is left, and the heart is free to think...
The capital, the palace.
It is the hot summer in August and the weather is hot.The sun was scorching the earth hotly, and there was not a single cloud in the blue sky.The people in the capital were already too hot to resist, and they were listlessly sitting in the shade to enjoy the cool.This hot day has lasted for half a month, and the water in the moat is gradually drying up.
"Hey! God! Please let it rain!"
"Yes! It's such a hot day, how can we live if it doesn't rain again!"
"God bless, heaven bless!"
The common people looked up at the sky from time to time, although they knew it was useless, they were still expecting a miracle.
Suddenly, a group of people rushed in outside the gate of the capital, galloped past like the wind, and hurried towards the palace.The horse's hooves kicked up the dust, which flew up for a while.I haven't seen the person clearly, but they have already disappeared, leaving only a few dots.The common people looked around curiously, and they didn't know who yelled, "It's the King of War!"
The king of war has returned to the city?
The common people all recalled the scene when King Zhan attacked the city, their scalps were numb and they couldn't help shivering.
At Wuzhong Gate, Feng Zhanxiu rushed into the palace first on a black horse, followed by Zhongli and the twelve cavalry.Feng Zhanxiu ignored it and rode his horse towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.The rest of the people stopped at the Wuzhong Gate, watching his tall and straight figure go further and further away.Everyone's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition emerged in their hearts.
"The King of War returns to the palace!" The eunuchs' high-pitched voices were repeated again and again.
The Hall of Supreme Harmony, the main hall where the courtiers go to court to discuss affairs, is also the authority where the king of a country coordinates strategies and looks at the world.In the main hall, Yun Ni had been waiting for a long time, when a majestic figure flashed in front of her eyes.
"My lord!" She immediately knelt down on the ground and shouted respectfully.
Feng Zhanxiu's expression was indifferent and solemn, and his purple attire made him even more evil.When he saw what Yun Ni was holding in his hand, he couldn't help being startled.After a while, he took another sudden step, rushing to her in a few strides.With trembling hands, he took it from her—the jet-black urn.
He lowered his head to look at the urn, and asked indifferently, "Whose."
This question was obviously asked knowingly, but the last word was already hoarse.
"Princess." Yun Ni replied softly.
When Feng Zhanxiu heard this, he couldn't help but took a few steps back.He stopped again, as if he didn't believe it, and suddenly laughed out loud, sadly.Holding the urn in his arms, he turned around with great difficulty and ran out of the hall.
Blink and disappear.
"My lord!" Yun Ni yelled worriedly, and wanted to chase after him, but she couldn't find him.
※※※
Feng Zhanxiu ran all the way to Pingle Palace, his eyes were bloodthirsty red, and his expression was terrifying.When everyone saw him, they were startled, and immediately knelt down on the ground, not daring to breathe, and before they had time to say "My Lord is auspicious", he roared gloomily, "Get out of here!"
Everyone scattered like birds and beasts one after another, not daring to stay any longer.
Feng Zhanxiu held the urn with one hand, and suddenly fell silent.
In the entire Pingle Palace, only he was left alone.It seemed that he was the only one left in this world.
Feng Zhanxiu slowed down and walked around the Pingle Palace in a daze.
No, no, without her.There is nowhere for her.nowhere.He searched for so long, but couldn't find them all.He was really lucky, as long as he didn't see her body or her ashes for a day, he wouldn't give up.So he sent people to keep looking, keep looking.
Why?He stared at the urn in his arms, turned his head like crazy and ran out of Pingle Palace, towards the imperial garden.
In the pool of the Imperial Garden, water lilies are blooming in full bloom.The green lotus leaves are continuous, dotted with enchanting lotus flowers.With the wind blowing past, the lotus swayed slightly, rippling on the lotus leaves, like a beautiful splash-ink painting.He walked on the lotus and flew to the highest eaves.
Feng Zhanxiu looked at the entire imperial garden, and his eyes stopped on the swing, but she still couldn't be seen.
In the end, only the jet-black urn was in his hand.
He raised the corners of his lips and walked towards the cold palace with a smile.
In the cold palace, it was lonely, but the situation of that year could be vaguely seen in front of my eyes, vividly, so clearly.
This cold palace used to house the person he wanted to take away, but he could never take away again.
Someone told him, it's okay, you can take her away.Why did you say that to him, and why didn't you keep your promise.Why did you choose to run away from him, why did you throw him down after warming him.Why did he have the illusion again and again, as if she was always there.
Didn't you promise to stay by his side?
Feng Zhanxiu hugged the urn, raised his head and roared, "Ah—"
"Ye Mingzhu, come out for me! Ye Mingzhu! Come out for me!" He roared mournfully, his roar shaking the sky, "If there are really ghosts and gods in this world, come out! Why don't you come out! Whether it's a beautiful boy or a court lady , no matter if it's a man or a woman, no matter who it is, come out!"
"Why don't you come out? Why?"
"..."
Feng Zhanxiu roared indiscriminately, and the deep reverberation circled the entire palace.
He fell down and sat on the ground, holding the urn in a daze, motionless.
But after a while, Zhongli and the others came anxiously looking for the sound.
They finally found him in this cold palace, and he just sat on the ground like this, regardless of the wind and the sun.The Feng Zhanxiu in their memory is the heroic, calm and calm war king.He used to think that nothing in this world would bother him and stop him.
But now, with such Feng Zhanxiu, such a desolate and hesitant look.
It was something they had never seen before.
It turns out that no matter how strong a person is, there will be sad times.
Zhongli took a step forward and shouted in a deep voice, "My lord."
"Get lost!" Feng Zhanxiu grabbed a handful of dust and threw it at him.
Zhongli was alert and dodged.And the dust hit the pillar, and the pillar collapsed with a "boom--".
Everyone was shocked.
"All to this king, get out of here, if you get half a step closer, you will be killed!" Feng Zhan Xiutou didn't look back, and spit out these few words in a haze.He just stroked the urn, reluctantly.
"My lord!"
"Subordinates implore the lord!"
It is useless to allow Zhongli, Yun Ni and the twelve cavalry to kneel down and beg for each other.If it made him angry, he would pick up the dust and sprinkle it indiscriminately.Three of the pillars supporting the palace were knocked down by his internal strength. Everyone was worried that the palace would collapse, so they dared not persuade them any more and had to leave.
Feng Zhanxiu just sat in this cold palace for a whole night, he didn't eat or drink, and didn't open his mouth to speak.
Just hugging the urn, silently answering.
At night, Zhongli stood in the distance quietly guarding.
After the scorching heat of the day, the residual heat of high temperature remains at night.The cold palace collapsed with countless pieces of sand and gravel, making it a mess.In the dead of night, the moon is in the sky, and the stars are twinkling with light.In the darkness, Feng Zhanxiu's hidden figure was vaguely shrouded in a layer of moonlight, but he seemed even more lonely.
Zhongli's eyes were sour from staring at him, and he was tired from the journey, so he couldn't help but close his eyes.
But when he opened his eyes again, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Feng Zhanxiu's originally black hair suddenly turned silvery white overnight.
His head turned white overnight.
"My lord!" Yun Ni murmured, stunned.
In fact, last night, after Yun Ni and the Twelve Cavalrymen left under the persuasion of Zhongli, none of them fell asleep.After a sleepless night, the sky came at dawn.When they saw that Feng Zhanxiu's hair had turned white overnight, they all froze in place.
How, how, how.
My lord, my lord's hair turned gray all night...
Feng Zhanxiu stood up slowly, his feet were numb and he lost consciousness.As soon as he got up, he almost fell to the ground, but he desperately protected the urn and hugged it carefully in his arms.He breathed a sigh of relief, as if it was a false alarm.Then he turned around and looked at the crowd.
"Let's attack Daicheng today! This king wants to take down Daxing completely! Yun Ni defends the city!" He shouted in a deep voice, carefully choosing his words.
"Yes!" The twelve cavalrymen knelt down and replied in unison.
Feng Zhanxiu took a step forward and walked past them like this.
His indifferent posture made people feel that the person who yelled wildly yesterday was not like him.
But everyone knew in their hearts that they might have reached a point of sadness, so they didn't even respond to their sadness, and buried it deep in their hearts.Perhaps from now on, no one can make him like this again.There is no one there anymore.Because that person is no longer there, turned into ashes.
Feng Zhanxiu walked out of their sight step by step.
"You guys go first!" Zhongli said in a deep voice, the twelve cavalrymen looked at each other and set off immediately.
When the group left, Zhongli turned his head to look at Yun Ni, and said quietly, "Let's go, the real war will start now."
Yun Ni didn't speak, but tears were streaming down her face, unceasingly.She suppressed the sobs and didn't make a sound, but her shoulders couldn't help trembling slightly.Zhongli walked a few steps, then turned around and walked to her side.He hesitated for a while, took out a handkerchief from his arms, and finally handed it to her.
She lowered her head, tears fell on the back of his hand, and walked calmly, "No need."
Zhongli took back his handkerchief and squeezed it tightly, silently following behind her.
An hour later, the Zhanwang army once again raised troops to attack Daicheng.

State government residence in Daijo
Outside the mansion, a soldier came galloping on horseback.And in his hand, he was carrying a blood-stained object.
The soldiers rushed into the mansion, bowed their heads and stepped into the main hall.
In the main hall, Dong Xiaotian and the ministers had been waiting for a long time.He sent someone to send the secret letter written by himself before, and he should be back in time.If you can't wait for news for a day, worry about it for a day.He was afraid that even this last move would not work, and he was even more determined to fight against the wind.
How much is true and how much is false about Mingzhu.
If he still remembers the past friendship, he will definitely agree to exchange conditions.
in case……
Dong Xiaotian shook his head, not wanting to think about it.
"Your Majesty!" The soldier rushed into the hall and knelt down on the ground, lifting the bloody thing with both hands.
The ministers all looked at it, and immediately understood what the blood-stained thing was.
Dong Xiaotian fell into the bottomless abyss with one heart, silently.He didn't think about affection at all, he didn't think about it at all.Hehe, Feng Zhanxiu, I'm afraid he has been waiting for this day for a long time.
The ministers murmured something, but he couldn't hear them all. He just stood up and walked out of the hall.
Dong Xiaotian walked slowly towards the East Garden alone.
In the wing room of the East Garden, Liu Shuiyao was so worried that she couldn't concentrate.
After getting Dong Xiaotian's promise that day, she waited quietly.She sews clothes for Xiao Xuanyi every day, hoping that one day Xiao Xuanyi will suddenly return to her, and she will be able to wear these clothes made by herself for the child.There are more clothes one by one, but Xiao Xuanyi has been missing for a long time.
After careful calculation, it has been two months since Xiao Xuanyi disappeared.
"Crackling——" the door of the wing room was pushed open.
Qiao'er came in with the soup, she put the tray on the table, and said softly, "Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine."
Liu Shuiyao was reciting the prayer beads to pray for the blessing of the gods, but suddenly she felt flustered, the red string stringing the beads snapped instantly, and the beads in her hand fell one by one, as if heralding something bad.She lowered her head, not feeling frightened, and murmured, "The beads are broken, the beads are broken..."
"Your Majesty, this servant is here to pick it up." Qiao'er squatted down hastily, and reached out to pick up the beads one by one.
Liu Shuiyao stood up, walked to the window, looked up at the sky, and silently closed her eyes, "Xuan Yi..."
She opened her eyes again, and turned her head to see Dong Xiaotian standing quietly outside the room.She didn't know when he came, but he looked at her from afar and smiled warmly as before.In memory, all his tenderness seemed to be given to another person.But fortunately, she still got half of it.
This is enough.
The only thing she hopes now is that Xuan Yi is safe and sound, and that Zhan Xiu can let Xiao Tian go.
Dong Xiaotian walked up to her slowly, looked at her and smiled faintly.
If time can be turned back, choose again, Mingzhu, which one do you choose.
In the hottest month of August, the army of the king of war raised troops to attack Emperor Xiao and attacked Daicheng.
The journey has lasted for half a month, and the front is about to be the last battle in the past two years.The king's flag, which marks the word "war", flutters in the wind.In this battle, the King of War led 20 elite soldiers to attack the last city.The rumble of the drum hit the hearts of the soldiers, and the whole army was even more imposing, raising their swords and shouting in unison.
"War King World! Battle King World!"
The crowd and the twelve cavalry rode their horses and stood in front of the army, their brows were awe-inspiring.
On top of the bloody BMW headed in the middle, there is a black and unruly figure.The sun is slowly shining, Feng Zhanxiu is wearing iron armor and wearing military boots facing the sky.He held a sharp sword in one hand, squinted his eagle eyes and burst into light, suddenly raised the sword, and shouted towards the city in front of him, "Attack—the city—!"
"Kill!" The soldiers also yelled, and rushed towards Daicheng not far away.
For a moment, the horseshoes kicked up dust, and the soldiers were like ants.
Inside the mansion in Daicheng, Dong Xiaotian and the ministers were anxious and worried.Dong Xiaotian looked outside the hall, frowning and waiting for the soldiers to return.He knew that Feng Zhanxiu was attacking again, and he also knew that he might be doomed and killed this time.He didn't even care about Mingzhu, what else would he care about.
"Report—the King of War's army is attacking!" The soldier strode into the hall and knelt down on the ground.
When everyone heard it, they felt that a huge rock was pressing on their hearts, and they couldn't breathe.
Dong Xiaotian responded silently, with a calm expression.He raised his hand and waved it lightly, and said lightly, "Go down, I know."
"Yes!" The soldier retreated again.
Seeing this, the ministers played fiercely and chaotically, trying to find a way to stop Feng Zhanxiu from attacking the city, or to find out a way so that he could let them live.At this point, if he doesn't break the city, I'm afraid it's delusional.
Whether these people can live is still a question.
"Your Majesty! Why don't you open the city gate and surrender?" Liu Qing was restless, he stood up and said in a deep voice.
He was anxious to save his life, and in his panic he could only think of such a bad idea.Although Feng Zhanxiu was a rebellious person, but at least there was a relationship between the Liu family and him.He also thought about how good he was at Feng Zhan before, and when he was thrown into prison by Emperor Hong, Shuiyao personally went to intercede for him.
For various reasons, he was willing to take this dangerous bet.
At this moment, life is the most important thing!
"Prime Minister Liu! What are you talking about!" Jiang Zaiyuan immediately yelled, and retorted, "How did this happen? The emperor is the true son of Daxing, how can he surrender to the traitors? Your majesty! I think I can't continue to sit and wait for death! "
The officials were at a loss as to what to do, they stood up at the same time, waiting for his decision, "Your Majesty!"
Dong Xiaotian never responded, and chose to ignore the questions from the officials.
"Your Majesty! You should say something!" Jiang Zaiyuan shouted again.
"The whole city is on guard, and the left and right forwards are dispatched to attack!" Dong Xiaotian glanced at everyone one by one, and said carefully.
※※※
The soldiers in Daicheng plus the soldiers brought out from the palace were less than 20. Using [-] soldiers to meet an army of [-] is almost the same as hitting a stone with a pebble.Feng Zhanxiu would lead such a large army to suppress it, which shows how decisive his determination is.If you don't take Daicheng, you will never give up!
Ten thousand soldiers stayed in the city, and the remaining [-] soldiers were divided into two groups, each led by the left and right vanguards.
The soldiers of the King of War Army and the soldiers of the Emperor Xiao fought in Daicheng, and the King of War Army was superior in terms of morale and combat.It didn't take long for Daicheng to get a report from the soldiers. The [-] soldiers led by the left and right vanguards had died in battle, and the vanguard general was beheaded by the Zhanwang army.
A bloody storm, a belated catastrophe, was as urgent and fierce as a storm.
Seven days later, the gate of Daicheng was finally breached.
The King of War army rushed into the city and was torn to death with the remaining [-] soldiers.The whole city was in a mess, with dead bodies everywhere.And that bloody smell filled the entire city, with cries and wailing all over the sky.The soldiers brutally slaughtered regardless of everything, regardless of men, women and children, and killed everyone in this city without mercy.
Since Daicheng is backed by mountains and surrounded by water on three sides, there is only one exit from the city gate.
This is the last city in Daxing, and it is also the most remote city. There is no escape route at all.
The gates of the city were opened wide, and the soldiers opened the road to welcome the king into the city.
Under the lead of the twelve cavalrymen, Feng Zhanxiu drove the BMW slowly into the city.The armor was not stained with any blood, and he indifferently faced the corpses all over the city and the crying people, his handsome face was hazy and ruthless.Just by moving your mouth casually, you can make people go from life to death in an instant.
The avenue guarded by soldiers continued to the governor's mansion.
The mansion has been surrounded, and it has not been breached yet due to General Zhongli's order.
However, the courtiers in the mansion had already surrendered and bowed to the ground one after another.
It's just that Emperor Xiao was not seen alone.
Liu Qing saw Feng Zhanxiu on the BMW, and immediately knelt down and walked towards him, shouting, "My lord!"
"Don't worry, this king will kill you naturally." Feng Zhanxiu raised the corners of his lips and whispered such a sentence.
When Liu Qing heard this, she collapsed powerlessly on the ground.
At the end of August and the beginning of September, the final battle against Daxing ended.
From the guards down to the servants in the mansion, all disappeared, only Dong Xiaotian, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, was left alone, sitting alone in the main hall, a tall and ethereal figure.He was waiting, waiting for Feng Zhanxiu to kill him.Perhaps, this day should have been staged two years ago.
If he hadn't supported himself as the throne at that time, then he would have rebelled.
Feng Zhanxiu, you are brave and brave, indeed invincible.You are deliberate and meticulous, and no one can match your thoughtfulness.Why did you support him at the time, why did you pretend to love Mingzhu very much.
Suddenly a person walked into the hall.
Dong Xiaotian looked at the person coming, and said softly, "Why didn't you leave, what are you still doing here. Let's go."
Wearing a white dress, Liu Shuiyao looked more and more frail.She knew that Daicheng had been breached by Feng Zhanxiu, and she knew that coming here was the last step.They had nowhere to go, they were cornered.There is a cliff in front of you, and a fire pit behind you. It doesn't matter which way you go.
She put on a white dress to prove her determination.
If he couldn't survive, then she couldn't either.
It's just that she doesn't know if Feng Zhanxiu will be lenient and let Xiaotian and the child go.
Liu Shuiyao walked slowly in front of him, knelt down and knelt down on the ground, she lowered her head, her soft female voice was pleasant to hear, "Wherever the emperor goes, the concubine will go there."
Her voice was calm, as was her heart.
Since she was a child, making unreasonable troubles is what she is best at, and being disgusted is the result she got.She always thought that the person she deeply liked was Feng Zhanxiu, but why did she feel pain in her heart every time she looked at Dong Xiaotian's figure.Even if Feng Zhanxiu was holding Mingzhu in front of her at that time, she didn't feel that much pain.
She was suddenly confused.
When they met at that time, she was sad because of Feng Zhanxiu's indifference, or because of Dong Xiaotian's different treatment.
Forget it, I'm afraid I can't tell.
Dong Xiaotian stretched out his hand to help him up, and said in a deep voice, "You go!"
Liu Shuiyao didn't speak, just shook her head.
"I don't love you! I haven't loved you for a day! Do you know that? There is only Mingzhu in my heart from the beginning to the end! Yes, I love Mingzhu! You go!" Seeing that she refused to leave, Dong Xiaotian shouted angrily , "Why don't you go? What are you doing here? Don't you want to watch me get my head chopped off by your beloved Brother Zhanxiu?"
Liu Shuiyao still did not speak, stubborn to the end.
"Hehe." Dong Xiaotian chuckled softly, and laughed weakly for a while, "You go."
"Xiaotian..." Liu Shuiyao shouted in a trembling voice, choking on her sobs.
Dong Xiaotian stood up, lowered his head and warned, "Promise me, if the child is still alive, he will be brought up. Stay away from this bloody, far away from the turmoil, and live an ordinary life."
"Xiaotian, nothing will happen. Xiaotian." Liu Shuiyao finally cried out, tears streaming down from her eyes.
Dong Xiaotian reached out hesitantly to wipe away her tears, "He won't kill you, don't beg for me. Also, remember what I just said." After he finished speaking, he suddenly touched her acupuncture points.Then, he hugged her gently, helped her turn around and sat on the chair.
Liu Shuiyao couldn't speak, couldn't move, but heard him whispering in her ear, "I owe you a lot. I'm sorry."
She widened her eyes in astonishment, and saw him smiling warmly.
There were heavy footsteps behind him.
Dong Xiaotian looked back unhurriedly, so he saw Feng Zhanxiu.He was dressed in armor, and his whole body was domineering and fierce, showing an evil charm.And the corners of his mouth outlined a calm arc, with a smile that was not a smile, it seemed to be mocking his own cowardice and desperation at the moment, and mocking his own extermination back then.
Winners and losers, he has always understood this truth.
It's just that he still has confusion in his heart, so he needs to know the answer before he dies.
All the people and the twelve cavalry rushed into the hall one after another, completely surrounding the main hall.
Dong Xiaotian looked at him, and said in a deep voice, "Feng Zhanxiu, did you kill the father!" Back then, he also identified him based on the half of "account".Because of his fear of his power and talent, he could not be kept.If he hadn't insisted on going his own way, would history have been rewritten.
"Haha." Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and laughed, and said ferociously, "It was indeed the king who killed him, so what."
"You!" Although Dong Xiaotian was prepared, he might hear such an answer.But at this moment, he really heard it, and he was annoyed and angry again, "Feng Zhanxiu! Since you killed it, why did you lie to Mingzhu!"
That day in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he asked Mingzhu a question.He asked her, are you Mingzhu, or Feng Zhanxiu's wife.He let her make her own choice, choose to be on his side or on Feng Zhanxiu's side.But she listened to Feng Zhanxiu's words and chose him.Her choice was wrong, she believed in the wrong person, and chose the wrong person!
Dong Xiaotian stared at him fiercely, and said word by word, "Feng Zhanxiu! You are rebellious, regicide and treason! You will have retribution!"
"Kill the king? Treason?" Feng Zhanxiu's smile condensed on the corner of his lips, and he said coldly, "The entire Nine Kingdoms Continent should belong to this king, and the Daxing Dynasty should be damned! All your descendants surnamed Dong should go to hell! Ben The king is going to kill you all, treason? Retribution? Come! This king is waiting, when will retribution!"
Dong Xiaotian was taken aback by his menacing aura, the feeling was exactly the same as that day.
He met gods and killed gods, met demons and killed demons with crazy arrogance.
"Who are you! Feng Zhanxiu! Who are you!" Dong Xiaotian questioned, his hatred was too strong.
Feng Zhanxiu held a pitch-black jar with one hand, and said casually, "The owner of Qin Palace is my concubine Mu. Who do you think this king is?"
Qin Palace?He is the son of the little princess?So, isn't he a descendant of Daxing?
Dong Xiaotian was already in chaos, and asked in confusion, "If Princess Qin is your Concubine Mu, then you are a descendant of our master! Why are you doing this!"
"Because you all deserve to die!" Feng Zhanxiu spit out these words gloomily.
Dong Xiaotian clenched his fists, and said through gritted teeth, "Feng Zhanxiu! You will die! Mingzhu is watching from the sky, and she will not forgive you! She knows it underground, and she must hate Jiuquan!"
"The person who will die with regret is Dong Yanhong!" Feng Zhanxiu said quietly, hugging the jar and gently stroking it, "She has been by my side all the time, and she watched me kill all those damned people!"
Dong Xiaotian suddenly stared at the pitch-black jar in his arms, and suddenly lost his soul.He actually burned her?He couldn't bear to turn her into ashes, so he secretly hid her in the cold palace.He actually burned her like this?Burned to ashes!Never, never see her face again.
"Haha!" Dong Xiaotian laughed out loud, held his breath between his fingers, and hit the jar with a flick of his fingers.
Only a "bang -" was heard, and the urn burst, and the ashes in the urn flew into the air.Dong Xiaotian waved his sleeve again, and the wind in his palm swirled the air, blowing the scattered ashes to the outside of the hall.Suddenly a gust of wind blew the ashes to the sky, into the distant sky.
Feng Zhanxiu was taken aback, his calm expression suddenly changed into bewildered.
He stretched out his hand to grab it, but only caught a cloud of air, and his palm was stained with a little ashes, gray ashes.He looked up at the sky outside the hall, and there was no trace of it.He didn't even have time to catch her, and he didn't even keep the last of her, and immediately roared like crazy.
Everyone was shocked by the roar and their ears were ringing.Lord...
Sitting on the chair, Liu Shuiyao panicked even more, but she couldn't speak.
"Dong Xiaotian! You really deserve to die!" Feng Zhanxiu Mode turned around, his eagle eyes were red.Stretching out his long arm, he hit him hard with all his might.His moves were fierce, and he wanted the other party's life with every move, without showing any affection.Dong Xiaotian couldn't resist, and was gradually defeated. He was hit head-on in the chest and spit out a mouthful of blood.
With his palm, Dong Xiaotian's internal organs were all displaced, and his whole body froze.
Feng Zhanxiu, like Shura, raised his hand and directly covered the top of his head.
"Mingzhu..." Dong Xiaotian murmured, blood was left on the top of his head, he closed his eyes, and died.
Liu Shuiyao was sitting right behind him, but she still couldn't speak.Her tears kept flowing from her eye sockets, she kept crying until her eyes were red, and she cried until all her tears dried up.Seeing his blood flowing from the top of his head, he fell to the ground. She couldn't bear the blow and passed out.
Xiaotian...
"Hehe, hehehe." Feng Zhanxiu smiled lightly, looked at the fragments on the ground, turned around and walked out of the hall again.
The crowd and the twelve cavalrymen looked at his tall figure and felt lonely.
Feng Zhanxiu walked out of the main hall, looked up at the blue sky, his heart seemed to be pinched by someone, and he couldn't breathe due to the pain.Suddenly, something slowly flowed out of the eye sockets.The liquid rolled over his mouth, and he tasted salty.He reached out to wipe it lightly, and looked down at the wet traces in his hand.
Is this tears?
Will he cry too.
I used to think that I would never cry again, that I had long forgotten the taste of tears.From the moment he crawled out of the corpse, he told himself that there was no one in this world who could make him cry.Because he died long ago, on that day.From then on, he was just a man with no heart.
Perhaps, he was never considered a human being.Hehe, he doesn't know what he is either.
He only needs hatred, but why is he sad and heartbroken.
Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and did not blink, he avoided himself, those were not tears.But she had already been reduced to ashes, blown away by the wind, and could no longer find a trace of breath.No more, no more of her.Even the ashes are gone.He opened his eyes sorely, but the tears flowed more and more.
Night Pearl, Night Pearl, Night Pearl.
The originally clear sky suddenly became cloudy, and countless dark clouds gathered.The thunder rumbled, and a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, as if cutting the sky in half.A line of rain fell from the sky, and another, and another.In the blink of an eye, the sky began to rain cats and dogs.
But the rainwater turned out to be red, like fresh blood, but it didn't smell fishy.
The rain fell on Feng Zhanxiu's body and wet his hair. The black hair dyed with special potions such as Polygonum multiflorum was washed away by the rain, revealing silver hair.With disheveled hair, he let the rain wash himself and wash his painful heart.At this moment, I finally admitted that I was crying.
Mingzhu, when you are afraid of the dark, who will be by your side.
※※※
A red rain suddenly fell from the sky, and the whole red rain lasted for three days and three nights.The rain soaked the earth, but the crops in the field did not drown, but all withered.Seeing that there was no harvest, the common people cried immediately.It's already September, and if we wait a little longer, the harvest will come in autumn.Now it's all destroyed.
"Hey! There are so many strange things, the sky is red and raining!" Doctor Wang looked at the withered crops, but he couldn't understand the reason.
On the contrary, it was Granny Dou, leaning on an old wooden crutch, shaking her head and sighing, "Many years ago, it also rained red."
"Really?" asked the villagers beside him curiously.
All the elders in Liu Shi Village died or got sick, and now only Granny Dou is left.Grandma Dou is nearly seventy years old and is the oldest person in the village.Grandma Dou nodded, and said with emotion, "It was raining at that time, and I heard that the devil was crying."
"Devil King?" Everyone froze, didn't they?Are there still demons in this world?
"Because he fabled that he was going to slaughter the nine kingdoms, so he was called the Demon King." Grandma Dou arched her back, recalling the past.
Jun Sheng suddenly ran out of the tile house, ran to Chang Sheng and said something.Changsheng looked surprised, and glanced at his younger brother suspiciously.Then the two smiled at everyone and hurried back to their tile house.After walking a little further, Chang Sheng asked in surprise, "Isn't it? You said that woman is awake?"
"Yes, brother, go and have a look." Jun Sheng replied in a low voice.
Because of the rain for three days, the old tile-roofed house leaked, and the rain fell into the tile-roofed house.On the bed made of stones, the girl was soaked by the rain, and her body, which was originally cold, became slightly warm.She felt physically exhausted, and a ghostly cry hovered in her ears: Master, the coldness of the ice porch has dissipated.
Mingzhu opened her eyes sleepily, and saw two strange faces.
A fat man, a thin man.
She tried to speak, but found that she had no strength.Her throat was so dry, she struggled to utter a word, "Water!"
Jun Sheng immediately poured her a glass of water, and his elder brother Chang Sheng helped her up and fed her the water.After drinking the water, the two brothers stood on the edge of the bed again, looking at her stupidly.Jun Sheng rubbed against his elder brother, and then Chang Sheng asked, "You... who are you?"
"I want to see the King of War!" Mingzhu said softly.
I want to see you……
At the beginning of September, King Zhan captured Daicheng, killed Emperor Xiao, and completely captured the Daxing Dynasty.
During his lifetime, the first emperor gave birth to six sons.But sickness, death, all of them didn't end well, and in the end only Xiaodi's son was left.With a trace of Emperor Xiao, Daxing can be regarded as exhausted.It is said that even Shu City, the vassal land of Prince Rui, was occupied by Nanchang Kingdom, and Prince Rui was killed long ago.
Therefore, Daxing has since collapsed.
As for the remaining princesses of Daxing, they were all imprisoned in the deep palace, never to see the light of day again.
