The beauty is delicate and soft, and he madly criticizes the powerful officials for taking her as th

Suddenly hearing the word "King of Wei", Yu Tingwan's heart tightened, and the food on the table was no longer tasty.

After Yu Xiuyun read the letter, he raised the corners of his lips and ordered the shadow guard to retreat.

"Do you want to read this letter later?"

Yu Tingwan clenched his clothes, "I don't want to know anything about him."

"The King of Wei has not gone to court for several days, and everyone in Chang'an is talking about whether he is sick." Yu Xiuyun sneered, "It would be a good thing if he really died of illness."

"sick?"

She was stunned for a moment. In her impression, Pei Zhi had never been associated with the word "sick and weak".

"Are you worried about him Wanwan?" Yu Xiuyun said in a faint voice, "If he dies, no one can suppress Pei's group of fierce ministers and generals, and we can wait for the opportunity to attack. Wouldn't it be a good thing?"

"I understand." Yu Tingwan turned pale, lowered her head, and murmured: "Don't worry, brother, I can't possibly worry about him."

"No matter what Pei Zhi says or does, don't believe him." Yu Xiuyun patted the back of her hand, "If you had ever had a confrontation with him, you wouldn't believe a word he said."

Yu Xiuyun waited for her to finish her meal and said softly: "Do you know the victory that King Wei won when he was sixteen years old?"

With a faint "Yes", Yu Tingwan held her brother's sleeve and begged him: "I really have never had any affection for King Wei. Brother, please don't mention him again."

Yu Xiuyun thought of his sister's reaction just now, steeled his heart, and continued: "Back then, he was trapped in Chishui Beach for several months, and he would have run out of food and grass, but he managed to survive, and he could occasionally raid the enemy and take away a few prisoners. .”

"As time went by, the enemy became uneasy and changed their tactics. They no longer besieged. Pei Zhi took the lead and rushed out to boost morale." Yu Xiuyun paused, "But did Wanwan know? After that battle, the bark of the trees on Chishui Beach was all gone. After being eaten, he doesn’t have that much food at all.”

"No one knows how he survived. The army may mutiny at any moment of hunger, but he remains immobile to the outside world. He can even deceive the veteran generals, let alone you."

Yu Tingwan took a deep breath, smiled, and looked into his brother's eyes.

"I know that he is cold-hearted and callous towards everyone. How could I trust him?"

A gentle smile appeared at the corner of Yu Xiuyun's mouth, and his heart dropped into his stomach.

"Okay, I may not be able to spare time to accompany you these days. Xiangyang City is still peaceful. You can go wherever you want. Remember to bring the shadow guard with you."

After Yu Xiuyun left, his steps gradually became hurried. He thought of the content at the end of the secret letter and pursed his lips into a straight line.

When the prince of Wei was assassinated, the King of Wei openly mobilized the Yulin Guards out of the capital to search for clues about the assassin.

He was arrested at one of the largest strongholds in Sili.

*

In Chang'an City, in the dungeon of Prince Wei's Mansion, a thick smell of blood filled the air. What was hanging on the wall could no longer be called human, and looked like a bloody ghost.

The executioner on the side couldn't help but feel sick after staying here for a long time.

He had served Pei Zhi for seven years, and he had never seen the King of Wei hate anyone so much.

How long has it been since this happened? I still hang on to this young girl and even try it myself.

Not far from the instruments of torture, a man sat on a red sandalwood chair. His purple clothes were not stained by blood, and his elegant and dignified demeanor was incompatible with the dungeon.

He half-closed his eyes, pressed his forehead impatiently, and asked, "Still unwilling to say anything? You are not dedicated enough."

The executioner suddenly broke into a cold sweat and quickly asked someone to bring him the torture tools.

There were thousands of faces on the wall. When she woke up, her eyes were filled with blood and she couldn't see clearly the expression on King Wei's face.

"I won't say anything, but I want to die."

Pei Zhi didn't even bother to open his eyes, and raised his hand slightly to signal for punishment.

"Ahem, cough, cough." Qianmian spat out a mouthful of blood, and thick hatred clogged his chest, but thinking of the way King Wei lost his composure that day, he felt that this life was worth it.

A wave of joy surged into her heart, and she couldn't help but laugh. The executioner whipped her and scolded: "What a shame!"

Qian Mian taunted him intermittently: "The King of Wei has done this for a woman. It's so affectionate. Can't I just laugh twice to show my respect?"

Pei Zhi finally glanced at her and said softly: "Continue the torture."

He didn't care on the surface, but deep down he was already filled with anger.

Every time Pei Zhi thought about that night when he returned to Guanyong Courtyard and the inner room was empty and there was no one around, he wished he could kill the people in front of him with a thousand knives.

He blocked the news and interrogated him personally. The servants in Guanjuyuan only said that the princess would call a maid in and let her out again. They were confused.

Dragon Slayer Guard dug deep into the ground in Chang'an City and the outskirts of Beijing, and finally saw a familiar figure in the prince's car.

Pei broke into the East Palace with his sword in hand. The beauties in the south tower were frightened by the influx of Dragon-Slaying Guards and fled in all directions. He walked to the prince's couch, lifted up the brocade quilt with the tip of his sword, and saw a face of heavenly beauty.

It was immediately obvious that it was not her.

Pei Zhi tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, his murderous intention suddenly rising. This impostor confused his vision, and Yu Tingwan had probably escaped from Sili.

"Husband, it was the prince who kidnapped me." The voice of the woman on the couch was soft and soft, revealing the bruises on her shoulders, but she was silenced by the tip of the sword pressed against her throat.

A sword slashed across his cheek, and the traces of the human skin mask could be faintly seen on the exposed flesh.

"The prince doesn't have that ability." Pei Zhi regarded the prince as nothing and said to the woman on the bed: "You want to provoke Gu Gu to kill the prince?"

When the prince heard the word "kill", he swallowed his saliva and said quickly: "King Wei, this woman took the initiative to throw herself into my arms and did not do anything to me."

Pei Zhi couldn't control the anger in his heart when he thought of the prince on the couch, having an affair with the impostor who was wearing Yu Tingwan's face.

Although the woman on the bed was exposed, she still said with satisfaction: "But King Wei, you still fell into the trap and brought the dead into the East Palace in broad daylight. How are you different from forcing the palace?"

"Even if I really force you to go to the East Palace, so what?" Pei Zhi said in a cold voice, "I would also like to thank you. If I hadn't lured me to the East Palace, I wouldn't have thought of such a good idea."

He needed a legitimate reason to use the Yulin Guards to search for Yu Tingwan on a large scale outside Sili.

But now, the solution is right before our eyes.

The tip of the sword, which was still dripping with blood, was as fast as lightning, piercing the prince's eyes.

The woman looked at the prince writhing on the ground in shock. Blood continued to seep from his eyes. The man's roar echoed in the south building.

"King Wei, how dare you! How dare you—"

The prince's roar suddenly disappeared when he noticed Pei Zhi approaching.

"Didn't Gu remind you, don't look at people who shouldn't look at it." Pei Zhi grabbed the prince's throat, "Gu Nian wants to help you because of brotherhood. You won't make this kind of mistake again in the future. "

Qian Mian on the side couldn't help but feel scared. They should pick up the girl directly instead of angering King Wei with unnecessary actions.

Pei Zhi ruled the world with one hand in Chang'an, but to this day, he doesn't care about reputation that much.

Or, in his eyes, Yu Tingwan was more important than reputation.

Either way, Qian Mian felt that Young Master made the wrong move.

Everything since then has verified her idea over and over again.

No one in the court objected to such a major event as the crown prince's dethronement. However, the King of Wei abandoned the complicated court affairs and stayed in the dungeon all day. There were rumors that he was ill, but he never showed up to clarify.

Qian Mian thought of Yu Tingwan's determined look when he left. Looking at King Wei with whom he had spent countless days, he suddenly felt ridiculous.

Pei Zhi was not angered by the hoarse and harsh laughter in his ears. When Qian Mian was on the verge of coma, he finally stood up and said, "Is Yu Xiuyun really Shen Jiyuan?"

The only one who could go to such trouble to pick up Yu Tingwan was Yu Xiuyun, but he was just a counselor of the Shen family, how could he have the qualifications to recruit so many dead soldiers.

What he just said was just his guess. His mother once had a subordinate who was good at disguise and stayed in Xiangyang.

Pei Zhi looked at the bloody face. He was worthy of being a dead soldier under Yu Xiuyun, and he hid his emotions very well.

Unfortunately, it's not good enough.

After getting the answer he wanted, a smile appeared on his lips and he said to the executioner: "This person is no longer useful."

Looking at King Wei's leaving figure, Qian Mian suddenly said word by word: "She knew everything before she left."

Qian Mian swallowed a mouthful of blood foam and wanted to cause trouble to King Wei before he died.

"If you insist on staying, how can she be willing to marry you?"
