Princess 1.8 meters

Liu Yu was silent for a while, and said: "Young Master Shen, you'd better not act rashly. Right now, King An's people are everywhere, waiting for you to appear."

Jiang Wu didn't quite agree with Liu Yu's words, he frowned and said, "The high wall is so far from the ground, it's impossible to tell whether it's true or not. If the third brother is deceived, wouldn't it be a great opportunity to miss?"

After hearing this, Liu Yu frowned slightly: "Your Highness...should be able to tell if it's Mr. Shen."

Jiang Wu's heart was attached to Jiang Heng, and he immediately refuted Liu Yu.Shen Zhi sat at the side, just watched the two of them talking, and remained silent.

Jiang Wu was right to be worried.

From such a long distance, that person was similar in stature to him, Jiang Heng couldn't tell the difference from the bottom of the tower.

He pondered for a moment and asked, "Liu Yu, how close can I get to the tower?"

Liu Yu thought for a while, and replied: "Ten feet is the bottom line. You can only see the top and bottom of the tower."

"How about closer?"

Liu Yu fell silent, as if hesitating, a little embarrassed.Shen Zhi blinked, and suddenly understood.

Even though Liu Yu wanted to help him, he was still under the control of the emperor, so he couldn't just open his mouth to promise.

Jiang Wu naturally also understood that he hated this so-called "father" so much, his face darkened, he walked into the room with Shen Zhi, and said indifferently: "Your Majesty sees that we are happy to fight, so you are not afraid that King An will force the third brother to retreat. , search you out later? King An is not like us, what he wants is His Majesty's noble life."

The emperor seemed to have just woken up from the torment of illness. Hearing Jiang Wu's words, the expression in his eyes was a bit complicated.Shen Zhi also looked coldly at this Ninety-Five Supreme Being. In just over two years, he has changed from a calm middle-aged appearance to an old man with a sick face. It seems that such a person does not need anyone in the world. Friendship, family affection or love worth mentioning, are all fake.

After a while, the emperor finally said, "Want to help third brother? Jiang Wu, you are a prince, why are you always so willing to be under others."

It was a disappointed and helpless tone.

Jiang Wu lowered his eyes and said calmly: "I have never lived like a prince for a day. Your majesty can rub us as he wants, even if he is willing to live under others, he has to take care of it? What's more, the position of prince is the third younger brother. of."

The emperor laughed hoarsely, lay back shaking his hands, coughed twice, and called: "Liu Yu."

Liu Yu walked to the bed and lowered his head.

The emperor whispered a few times, as if he was out of breath, Shen Zhi couldn't hear what he was talking about.Liu Yu listened, nodded, asked Jiang Wu and Shen Zhi to leave the room, closed the door to follow, and said: "Your Majesty said that there are people who pretend to follow King An on the tower, and they are truly loyal to the royal family. Young Master Shen can Hold the token and ask for help. In addition... His Majesty asked his subordinates to give this to His Royal Highness, and told His Highness not to open it yet."

With that said, he handed Jiang Wu a box.Jiang Wu took it with a frown, and didn't have much intention to open it. Seeing that Shen Zhi took the token, he felt a little worried about Shen Zhi: "Don't be caught by Jiang Du, and cause trouble for the third brother."

Shen Zhi smiled: "Your Highness, please rest assured."

The towers of the capital city have been around for a long time, they are tall and solid, and they are a strong barrier both before and now.

At this time, Jiang Du didn't feel how safe it was to stay on the tower.

He looked at the white-clothed young man brought up, his stature was similar to Shen Zhi's, but his temperament was very different, because he was arrested suddenly, he cowered, he didn't dare to look at him, his face was full of horror.If it wasn't for being tied up and unable to move, with something stuffed in his mouth, he might have knelt down and begged for mercy.

Will Jiang Heng really be deceived?

Jiang Du paused, stood up and glanced at the army surrounding the city, then sat back with a sullen face.

There is authentic news under the imperial city, only the emperor knew. He took the risk to force the palace. He thought he was sure of everything. Taking advantage of Jiang Heng’s absence, he seized the capital in one fell swoop, killed the old man, and forged an edict to pass the throne—he took the pass anyway. The jade seal of the country is sealed, so it is real.Unexpectedly, the emperor and the prince hid in the tunnel to delay him, and Jiang Heng came so quickly.

It was like a person who was extremely thirsty in the desert, suddenly saw a bowl of clear water, and just picked it up to drink, then fell into the yellow sand, leaving nothing behind.

The people on the left and right saw that Jiang Du's face was not good-looking, so they didn't dare to speak.Jiang Du gritted his teeth, pinched the chin of the young man in white and looked at it for a while, then turned his head and asked, "No movement?"

It stands to reason that Shen Zhi should come here as soon as he gets the news.

The people on the left and right whispered: "...No."

"Where is the king's concubine?"

The voice of the answer was even smaller: "... also, no."

time is limited.

A haze fell between Jiang Du's brows, staring at the young man who was so frightened that he was about to cry, thinking, even if it's not very good, it must be done now.

He pulled the cloth from the young man's mouth, and the young man cried out immediately: "My lord, Your Highness, the little one is just a commoner, and has never done anything bad, please, please forgive the little one... ..."

There was a smile on the corner of Jiang Du's lips, almost touching the young man's face gently: "Who taught you how similar he is?"

The young man didn't know who "he" Jiang Du was talking about, his legs trembled with fright, and he was about to continue begging for mercy when his cheek was suddenly pinched hard, causing him to sob in pain.

Jiang Du's hypocritical smile disappeared, and he stared at the young man expressionlessly: "Later, you just need to stand still obediently, and do whatever I tell you to do. Don't cry, don't beg for mercy. Otherwise, I'll cut off your limbs , pushed you off the city wall, smashed it into pieces and gave it to your family to eat."

The young man's body shook like chaff, and he nodded desperately in despair.

Jiang Du laughed again, like a lunatic, patted the young man's face: "Good boy."

He covered the young man's face again, stood up, gestured to the left and right to push the young man up, and walked slowly to the edge of the battlement.Below is the armored soldier who can't see the end at a glance. Jiang Du said a few words with a cold face, and the people next to him immediately shouted: "His Royal Highness Zhao, don't you want to come out and see Mr. Shen?!"

After shouting three times in a row, Jiang Du saw Jiang Heng riding a horse to the front of the formation.Even from a long distance, he still felt that Jiang Heng's cold eyes were staring at him without any emotion, as if he was looking at a dead person.

He was indeed almost dead. Standing on the wall, Jiang Heng shot an arrow from a distance, piercing his shoulder. Fortunately, the lieutenant next to him pushed him in time.

He pointed to the young man next to him, motioning to continue shouting.

"Jiang Heng! If you don't retreat within half an hour, Shen Jinghe's left and right hands will be hard to protect. If you don't retreat within an hour, you will wait under the tower to dig up Shen Jinghe's body!"

Intermittent shouts came from above the high wall, and Jiang Heng's face became more and more indifferent.Du Wen looked up at the motionless white-clothed young man on the high wall for a while, not sure if it was Shen Zhi, so he frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's a deceptive story."

Jiang Heng looked back at his uncle, but said nothing.

Du Wen thought about it, and continued: "Mr. Shen is extremely intelligent, so he should not be arrested."

Jiang Heng raised his head, and the figure on the high wall was somewhat familiar, but it was slightly different from the one deeply in his memory.

The distance is too far away, even though he has a vague feeling in his heart, Jiang Heng still dare not confirm it.

The last thing to bet on is Shen Zhi.

He was struggling in pain when suddenly a person came up behind him and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, before your subordinates left, Shen Jinghe was with the Crown Prince."

So if Shen Zhi was arrested, the others should also be arrested.If both the emperor and the crown prince fell into Jiang Du's hands, Jiang Du wouldn't be able to threaten with "Shen Zhi".

Listening to the string song and knowing it, Jiang Heng turned his head and glanced at Fei Qing lightly.

Fei Qing felt chills down his spine, he and the other two passed through the secret passage, and one of them died. Fortunately, the hole was still there when he came out, so he escaped smoothly.But Jiang Heng would not believe Shen Zhi at all in terms of him.

His hostility towards Shen Zhi was too strong, so strong that when he regained consciousness, thinking about it, he felt that he was ridiculous.

The people on Jiang Heng's side looked at each other, and those who had been with Jiang Heng for a long time vaguely guessed their relationship. After asking Jiang Heng for instructions, they shouted back: "I don't know if the one you bet on is Mr. Shen!"

There was a response after a while: "If His Royal Highness Zhao doesn't believe it, let's push him down, and you can see for yourself?"

Jiang Heng tightened his grip on the rein.

Du Wen guessed what he meant by watching his movements, and sighed: "If you retreat at this time, you will miss a good opportunity, and the spirit of the soldiers will also be frustrated. Jiang Du, he should not be underestimated."

Jiang Heng lowered his eyes and said: "Uncle, there is only one Shen Zhi, but there are many opportunities."

Du Wen was silent.

Jiang Heng continued: "Uncle, he went out of the capital at night to save me, was hunted down for eight hundred miles, and finally fell into a glacier and almost died. What did I do for him?" He turned his head and looked at Du Wen , with bloodshot eyes, "I can't afford to bet on him alone. Even if there is only a one in a thousand chance of being true, I dare not, uncle."

Du Wen sighed again, staring at this nephew who had grown up since he was a child, nodded for a while, and said, "You are the commander, and no one will disobey you when you give orders. Do whatever you want, and uncle doesn't want to see you regret it." sad."

The pair of nephew and uncle were talking in a low voice, but Jiang Du on the tower was a little impatient.

There was a faint uneasiness in his heart, he couldn't explain it clearly, he couldn't see it clearly, it was just a kind of intuition.The knife resting on the neck of the young man in white was also a little unsteady, and the young man whimpered, fearing that he would end his life with a shake of his hand.

Jiang Du said coldly: "Don't move. Don't make a sound, do you want to die?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Jiang Heng's situation over there, and was about to call someone to remind him, when his neck suddenly felt cold.

Something familiar pressed against his neck.

There is also a familiar voice with a slight smile in his ear: "He probably doesn't want to die. If His Highness Wang An wants to die, I can help His Highness."

Jiang Du's face froze, the dagger was so close, he couldn't help but whisper a lot, and gritted his teeth, "Shen Jinghe."

To appear is to appear.

The timing and place of appearance made Jiang Du so angry that he wanted to die with him.

Shen Zhi was wearing a soldier's iron armor, and smiled calmly: "Your Highness still remembers me, it's really rare. How about it, put down the knife? Your Highness is so rich, you don't want to die with a commoner, do you?"

Jiang Du froze for a while, and threw the knife to the ground angrily.

Shen Zhi held Jiang Du hostage, and no one on the tower dared to act rashly.

It was also because no one paid attention to this inconspicuous "little soldier" and they were all staring at the movement under the tower, so Shen Zhi had a chance to succeed.

The change on the tower was noticed instantly, Shen Zhi exposed his head, pressed Jiang Du against the battlements, and waved at Jiang Heng from a distance.

Jiang Heng stared at him, instantly determined that this was the real Shen Zhi, he didn't know whether to land on the ground or continue to hang in the air, and looked at Shen Zhi's movements nervously.

Shen Zhi held Jiang Du hostage and turned around, and said with a smile: "King An is in my hands, the situation is clear, you have no master, and you still don't want to surrender? Open the city gate immediately to welcome His Royal Highness King Zhao into the city."

Jiang Du's face darkened: "Don't open the city gate!"

Jiang Du's subordinates were in trouble, and they looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to move.

The situation is really clear now.

There were not many soldiers in the capital, and they were just holding on through the city gates and towers. If Jiang Heng directly ordered the attack, they would undoubtedly fail miserably.What's more, the master has already been captured by others, why are they desperate?Not worth it.

Shen Zhi said: "Your Highness, you are really stubborn."

Jiang Du sneered: "Contest? Jiang Heng wants to fight with this king so much, why not fight for a ruin? Shen Jinghe, there is so much gunpowder in the secret passage, once it is detonated, not to mention the imperial city, the whole capital will tremble three times."

"You want to detonate the gunpowder?"

Jiang Du's face was numb, but he clenched his hands in secret: "Naturally. My people can send a signal at any time to let the people guarding there detonate the gunpowder."

"Really?" Shen Zhi said in a warm voice, "You don't want to look for Concubine Li anymore?"

Jiang Du's fatal point was poked, and his eyes turned blood red.

Before Shen Zhi came, he asked some questions, understood clearly, and slowly said: "Concubine Li loved you since childhood, took care of you in everything, and taught you. You contradicted Concubine Chang and was almost beaten to death. It was Concubine Li I tried my best to save you, because in the twelfth lunar month of winter, I knelt for too long, the cold penetrated into my bones, and I developed leg diseases, which even the empress with excellent medical skills could not heal. Whenever it rains in autumn and winter, the cold and pain are unbearable. I heard that you swore to let Concubine Li live the best life that day, and no one can bully you as mother and son again. Now, Your Highness has forgotten all about it?"

Jiang Du said angrily: "Shut up!"

Shen Zhi said in a warm voice: "I heard that the empress's leg disease can only be temporarily suppressed by using the flame stones next to the volcano. His Highness always goes to collect it himself, such filial piety is rare. Now Empress Li is hiding in the tunnel and refuses to meet you , suffering from hunger and cold, with leg ailments, just waiting for His Highness to repent and change his mind. Are you really willing to let Concubine Li be reduced to a pile of ashes in the explosion, leaving no bones left?"

Jiang Du suddenly became hoarse, and after a while, he called out "Mother Concubine" in a daze, and two lines of hot tears rolled down his cheeks.

Shen Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.Although it is not good to "threat" Jiang Du's mother in this way, it is also a good thing to avoid the explosion of the tunnel and the collapse of the imperial city.

He just had a snack when Jiang Du suddenly whispered something.Shen Zhi was afraid that he might miss some important news by mistake, so he moved a little closer to him, but before he could speak, he was suddenly pushed by a huge force.

Jiang Du actually brought him down the tower together!

There was a whistling wind in his ears, and Jiang Du's facial features were a little distorted. He laughed loudly and said, "Even if I lose, I don't want to make it easier for Jiang Heng!"

"Then you might be disappointed." Shen Zhi smiled, took a deep breath, grabbed Jiang Du's collar, and ruthlessly inserted the dagger into the gap in the city wall.The momentum of the fall paused, the dagger was given to Shen Zhi by Jiang Heng on the day of Yulan City, the material was unknown, but after trying it now, the quality was really excellent, and it didn't break.

Shen Zhi's hand was almost dislocated, after all, he was still holding someone else.He was about to gather his energy and concentrate, and use his lightness kung fu to fall steadily, when Jiang Du struggled violently.There is still a long distance from the ground here, if you fall, you will definitely die.

Shen Zhi was pulled by him for a while, feeling bad, Jiang Duhong looked at him, and at the last moment, he didn't pull Shen Zhi to die together.Instead, he took out a throwing knife from nowhere, and stuck it in Shen Zhi's hand that was holding his collar.

There was a sharp pain in the back of his hand, Shen Zhi subconsciously let go, Jiang Du fell straight down, and landed with a "bang", and from a distance, he could see blood slowly spreading from the back of his head.I can't survive.

He had no strength left in his hands, and was about to leave this place where he couldn't get up or down, when a black shadow appeared in the corner of his vision, and he was picked up in the next moment, and the man took him with a leap, and fell back lightly. Immediately.

Shen Zhi's face was pressed into his arms, and for some reason, he felt a little hot in his eyes, silently hugged his waist tightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I didn't wait for you to come back, I broke my promise."

Jiang Heng's heart was still beating extremely fast, just now when he saw that Shen Zhi was almost suffocated when he was knocked off the tower by Jiang Du, now that he was in his arms, he felt a little relieved.He didn't speak, just hugged tightly again.

Shen Zhi said again: "You came so fast."

Jiang Heng took a deep breath, then let him go, and said, "...I'm afraid."

Shen Zhi reached out to touch Jiang Heng's face, but when he reached out, he realized that it was bloody. Jiang Heng's eyes darkened, and he immediately took out the medicine, intending to bandage him to stop the bleeding.Shen Zhi pushed his hand away and shook his head: "Now you have more important things to do, many people are waiting for you. This hurts me, don't let them wait in vain."

After finishing speaking, Shen Zhi rubbed his shoulder on his shoulder with some reluctance, and was about to turn over and get off the horse.Jiang Heng grabbed his waist with a cold face, not allowing him to leave, while bandaging his hands, he told the lieutenant next to him what to do.

The deputy general got the order and shouted: "King An is dead! Please open the city gate, His Royal Highness King Zhao forgives you!"

There was chaos on the city tower, and Shen Zhi didn't have the heart to look back at the situation anymore. Feeling that there seemed to be constant gazes from all directions, he said helplessly, "What... are you doing so high-profile? Do you want to take me into the city with you?"

Jiang Heng carefully applied the medicine to him, and then lightly bandaged the wound, fearing that he would hurt, and held his hand and blew it, as if he was doing something important for the country.At the end, he nodded and said "hmm".

For a moment, Shen Zhi didn't know whether to be happy or sad, but at this moment, the suspension bridge was lowered suddenly, and the city gate slowly opened.

With Shen Zhi in his arms, Jiang Heng rode his horse into the city amidst the shouts of "Welcome His Highness King Zhao".

Shen Zhi couldn't remember clearly what happened after that.

After rushing to the capital with the stars and the moon, he actually didn't fall asleep almost every night. His nerves were always tense and he was worried too much. He sat awkwardly in Jiang Heng's arms, surrounded by the familiar and reassuring breath, and fell asleep after a while. past.

It didn't take long to sleep, it was morning when I climbed the tower, and it was just getting dark when I woke up.There was no one around, so Shen Zhi sat up and looked around, and judged which side hall in the palace this place should be, the clothes on his body and the bandages on his hands had already been replaced with new ones, and he nestled on the bed, feeling warm , I really don't remember much.

Sitting blankly for a while, Shen Zhi lifted off the quilt to get dressed, got up, opened the door and saw a group of soldiers standing outside, seeing him coming out, they all saluted: "I've seen Master Shen."

Shen Zhi waved his hand: "Where is His Royal Highness King Zhao?"

A soldier said: "His Highness sent someone to withdraw the gunpowder in the secret passage, and then went to the Leng Palace where Concubine Chang Gui lived."

Shen Zhi didn't rush over, and asked again: "Where are Your Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Your Majesty has been invited back to the bedroom. His Highness the Crown Prince is with His Highness King Zhao. His Highness has ordered that when you wake up, if you want to find him, we will escort you."

Shen Zhi looked at the black crowd by the door, and thought to himself that my arms and legs were not broken, I was really over nervous.

Although he slandered silently, Shen Zhi could still understand Jiang Heng's mood, nodded with a smile, and let the group of soldiers "escort" him to the cold palace.

Jiang Heng once said that he didn't move to Concubine Chang only because she was in the palace.

Now that he is able to hold great power and lead troops into the imperial city without anyone daring to say no, it is time for him to take revenge.

When Shen Zhi and this group of conspicuous soldiers arrived at the Leng Palace, they heard a piercing scream from inside: "Little bastard! How dare you touch this palace?!"

Needless to say, I know who this is.

Shen Zhi turned his head, indicating that he had already reached Jiang Heng's side so they didn't need to follow him, the leader nodded to show his understanding, and motioned everyone to guard the door.

Shen Zhi turned and walked in, the courtyard was quite desolate, even the flowers and plants in the cold palace were wild, although there was wildness, the concubines who were usually thrown into the cold palace would not appreciate it.

There were some soldiers standing in the courtyard, and when Shen Zhi got closer, he saw the backs of Jiang Heng and Jiang Wu.Across them, Jiang Zhou, who looked like a madman with a gloomy face, came into sight.

Seeing Jiang Zhou, Shen Zhi paused and walked over after a while.Jiang Heng seemed to have eyes behind her back, before Shen Zhi called him, she turned around and pulled him, looked coldly at Concubine Chang Gui who seemed to have gone crazy, and said: "Crazy, it really took advantage of her."

All the soldiers around were carrying oil barrels and holding torches, Shen Zhi guessed what Jiang Heng meant, he clenched his cold hand behind his back, and his eyes fell on Jiang Zhou.

In just a few months, Jiang Zhou became emaciated and lost his former aura.He looked a little numb, as if he knew what was going to happen.

Shen Zhi opened his mouth, wanting Jiang Heng to let Jiang Zhou go - he knew that as long as he opened his mouth, Jiang Heng would definitely agree, but for some reason, he couldn't make a sound.

Jiang Heng had seen enough of Concubine Chang's madness, and said calmly: "Today, you should come and taste the pain of burning my mother and sister."

The soldiers next to her immediately escorted Concubine Chang Gui into the palace, but did not move Jiang Zhou.Jiang Zhou was at a loss for a moment, and looked at Shen Zhi with some helplessness.

Shen Zhi was even more puzzled by Monk Zhang Er. Jiang Heng gently stroked his back and said, "You don't want to see Jiang Zhou die, and neither does Aying. So I let him live."

Hearing "A Ying", Jiang Zhou's body trembled.Coincidentally, oil was poured over there, and the torch was thrown into the bedroom, and he came to ask Jiang Heng and Jiang Wu to leave. Jiang Zhou's eyes filled with tears, and suddenly he knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said in a hoarse voice: "...Brother Sanhuang, I'm sorry .”

Jiang Heng said lightly: "It seems that you already know what good things your concubine mother and uncle have done."

Jiang Zhou almost curled up on the ground, his voice full of tears: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I overheard... I heard it all back then, but I was afraid, I didn't dare to remind the empress, I didn't dare to remind you ……sorry……"

Jiang Heng paused: "What did you say?"

Jiang Zhou seemed afraid to look at him, lowered his head, trembling: "I know...I always knew...I have felt guilty all these years, and I often dreamed that Sister Sihuang was crying to me...but me……"

Shen Zhi couldn't bear to listen, turned his head away.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, the sound is fierce, and the fireworks are crazy, just like the cold palace "running away", Jiang Zhou fell on the ground, telling some cruel truths of that year incoherently.

Concubine Chang Gui often went to Lenggong to "visit" Empress Du. She was jealous of Empress Du's beautiful and sharp eyes, so she gouged out her eyes with a knife.

In that so-called Queen Du's staunch murder, the truth was that she had her hands and legs broken, unable to crawl, unable to walk, and burned to death in the cold palace.

Shen Zhi noticed that Jiang Heng's expression was getting more and more wrong, so he immediately stopped Jiang Zhou from speaking.Jiang Zhou's face was full of tears, he stood up unsteadily, and said "I'm sorry" again.

Jiang Heng suddenly became furious: "Get lost!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Jiang Wu glanced at Jiang Zhou coldly, considering that Jiang Heng probably didn't want to see anyone except Shen Zhi at the moment, and didn't follow them, so he ordered His Highness's soldiers to stay here.

Standing outside the door, he listened to the crazily painful screams in the palace for a while, and couldn't help laughing happily, and walked towards the emperor's bedroom.

Jiang Heng walked near a remote small pavilion before stopping, as if his whole body had lost all strength, sat in the pavilion, dazed for a while, only to realize that he unconsciously pulled Shen Zhi over.

With a gentle expression, Shen Zhi patted his shoulder lightly, and whispered: "It's all over, it's over. If you want to cry, you don't have to restrain yourself in front of me."

Jiang Heng looked at him silently for a while, then buried her head in his shoulder, weeping silently.

Shen Zhi quietly accompanied him, sighing slightly in his heart.

As the night darkened, Jiang Heng calmed down, and a light rain began to fall in the sky.

The fire on the other side of the cold palace also stopped.

The people who came to report did not dare to look at Jiang Heng's red eyes, lowered their heads and said, "Your Highness, after the fire died down, the brothers entered the cold palace and found... two corpses inside."
