Wolf Dysprosium

In the misty snow and mist, Ruan Buqi used two bricks as suction cups to climb up the watchtower of the city wall.

There are watchtowers in every corner of the royal city, guarded by soldiers.But the soldiers in the watchtower had fallen asleep, and Chen Shuang leaned against the fence: "You are too slow."

"That idiot He Lansone delayed me." Ruan Buqi spoke.Her voice is hoarse due to not using it for a long time.

The two looked down at He Lansone in front of the city gate from the watchtower: "He said he could take Jin Yan back."

Chen Shuang: "How?"

Ruan Buqi smiled lowly: "It's just bragging. He has injuries on his body, maybe he fell down before Jin Yan came out."

Several soldiers in front of the city gate approached He Lansone, Chen Shuang frowned: "What is he holding?"

Soon, some soldiers turned their heads and rushed into the city gate, while the rest invited He Lansone to a shelter from the wind and snow with a respectful attitude.

"This idiot has some skills." Ruan Buqi turned to look at Chen Shuang, "I haven't asked you carefully yet, since the hall master asked me and Yue Lianlou to come here, why did he send you again? Does he believe me or not? Yue Lian Tower?"

Chen Shuang bowed to her: "What is Yinshou saying? How could the hall master not believe you. The most powerful Yin and Yang Ershou in Mingye Hall are all in Beirong, which is enough to show that the hall master attaches great importance to Jin Yan. After all, so For the important matter, he wouldn't worry about changing it to anyone else, only the two of you can handle things safely..."

Before he finished speaking, Ruan Buqi sneered and said, "Don't talk in such a slippery manner, it's disgusting."

Chen Shuang smiled: "In short, you are a woman, and it is inconvenient when you need close protection. I am just a supplement to you and Yang Shou. I am not important at all, so don't be angry."

"Actually, I know it even if you don't tell me. It must be Yue Lianlou's life-threatening tongue. The timing of Jin Yan's escape from Yetai was inappropriate last time. The hall master blamed me for not taking good care of him. But I have tried to inform you as soon as possible. Yue Lian Lou! At that time, Yue Lian Lou was near Ye Terrace, but he refused to show up normally, and rode a broken deer in the mountains every day to pretend to be a god. If he had appeared earlier, Jin Yan wouldn’t have brought it back in the wind and snow. Let me run away. I'm tired too!"

"The hall master is angry, but he is angry at Yue Lianlou, not you. Jin Yan is too stubborn, even if you can talk, it's hard to persuade you, let alone you are pretending to be a mute."

"I can't be dumb, I'm not like you," Ruan Buqi flexed his wrist, "I haven't learned how to talk nonsense when I see people. There are a bunch of stinky Beirong people in Yetai. Er Duze, I wanted to kill more than once."

"The area around Yuntianjian is empty." Chen Shuang said, "I just checked, and he was imprisoned in Yuntianjian. Should we rescue him now, or wait and see what happens?"

Ruan Buqi climbed the thin pillars to the top of the watchtower.It was dawn, but it was still gray and white. The light snow gradually increased, and the eternal flame in the tower was shaken by the wind.

"Wait and see what happens." She said, "We can only show up unless Beirong Dog kills someone."

The two jumped out of the watchtower at the same time, falling into the royal city like two light feathers.

***

The atmosphere outside Changying Palace was quiet and eerie.When Jin Yan, Dawu and his party arrived, they only saw palace slaves and inner eunuchs coming in and out frequently, either holding a basin of blood, or walking in a hurry, no one dared to say a word.

There was a group of people kneeling outside the palace, and they all fell silent when they saw the big witch bringing a young man coming.Jin Yan saw Helan Jinying and General Hu in the crowd.The distance was too far, and Jin Yan couldn't see the expressions on their faces clearly.

As soon as he entered the gate of Changying Palace, he could smell strong blood.The space in the palace is spacious, the floor is made of felt, and the walls are hung with exquisite and complicated woven carpets. There are not many furnishings, and weapons such as swords and axes have turned into decorations on the walls.A stone screen is in front of the eyes, engraved with high mountains and mountains, and there are Beirong poems, depicting the clouds and winds.

Jin Yan and Da Wu stood at the door, people came in and out, they all spoke Beirong dialect, the dialect had a strong accent, he could hear it vaguely.Because there was wind blowing in from the door, and seeing the big witch swaying, he whispered, "Dawu, it's cool here, you might as well find a place to sit down."

The big witch glanced at him: "I don't know my life or death, so I have time to think about others?"

"Worrying about your life and death and worrying about whether you will catch a cold don't interfere with each other," Jin Yan said.

The big witch laughed: "Little thing."

The two didn't wait too long, someone came out from behind the stone screen and invited Jin Yan and Da Wu to enter.

Behind the screen is an equally spacious hall, the floor is covered with thick ochre-red velvet carpet, and there are dozens of tallow candles above the head, hanging in exquisitely crafted wrought iron lanterns.Jin Yan raised his eyes and glanced hastily, and saw two men who were also dressed as Beirong people sitting on the couch in front of him.

The middle-aged man on the left has a short beard, a rosy complexion, cold and arrogant eyes, looking at Jin Ye like a sinner.Another young man was leaning on the low table in the couch, his left arm was wrapped with a thick bandage.He looked at the kneeling Jin Yan with great interest, and said with a smile, "Proton is very different from what I imagined."

Jin Yan fell down without answering, and thought to himself: The older one must be Zhe Weng, the king of Beirong, and the younger one can speak like this in front of Zhe Weng, he should be Zhe Weng's only son, King Yunzhou.

King Yunzhou seemed to be seriously injured, so the atmosphere in the king's city changed drastically.But since he was already injured, why did he let himself come here?Jin Yan didn't think about it and didn't dare to raise his head.

Seeing the iron ball on Jin Yan's feet, Avaqi said, "Everyone in Da Yu knows kung fu, so does Proton?"

Jin Yan: "I've only learned superficially, so I dare not claim to understand."

"Then why did you tie an iron ball for you?" Ava said to the big witch, "When you enter my Changying Palace, don't wear these obtrusive things. Go."

Immediately, someone stepped forward to untie Jin Yan's hands and feet.Facing the kindness of King Yunzhou, Jin Yan was at a loss.

"It's interesting that General Zhongzhao's son is not good at martial arts." Ava smiled at Zhe Weng, "Abba, you haven't seen him either?"

Zhe Weng took a look at his injury: "Say a few words less."

Ava argued that he couldn't lie down because of the pain, so he simply passed the time here, waiting for the pain to subside.

Zhe Weng didn't understand why Awa had to meet this slave who was imprisoned in Yuntian Prison.His son's injury made him upset and angry, and his words became more and more rude: "How does it feel to be a slave of Beirong?"

Jin Yan still didn't answer.

"Head up!" Zeon roared.

Jin Yan had no choice but to answer: "Same as other slaves."

He was not sure what Zhe Weng and King Yunzhou were thinking, so he recounted the life of slaves he saw in Yetai one by one: they lived in stinky tents, went to the glaciers with bare hands and feet to catch fish in the cold winter, When the people of Yetai rode out on horseback, he followed behind. His feet without shoes were red with cold, and he almost died on Chiwangyuan.

"Poor." Awa spoke perfunctorily, and immediately changed the subject, "By the way, have you seen the Lantern Festival in Beidu? Do you think it is different from Da Yu?"

"Each has its own merits."

Ava laughed, pulled his wound instantly, and hurriedly stabilized his figure to pant: "You are funny. If you were an ordinary person, you would say something nice for the Beidu Lantern Festival. I heard that there are houses as tall as the Liangjing Lantern Festival." four-legged monster?"

He was talking about the elephants that Chi Yan paid tribute to.Elephants are a routine part of the Liangjing Lantern Festival parade.At that time, the generals in the palace lined up across the Suzaku Avenue, and countless eunuchs and eunuchs grabbed the lamps. The elephant walked last and was the most popular among the children.Chiyan people are good at taming elephants, and they worship elephants as gods. Many beautiful red swallow girls often sit on the elephant gods, and there are countless copper coins in large baskets.The elephants used their trunks to scatter all the way, and the children followed the elephant team to pick up copper coins, very happy.

Awa was excited when he heard it: "Abba, next year's New Year's Eve, we also go to Chiyan to ask for two elephants?"

Jin Yan: "Elephants can't stand the cold, so they can't survive in Beirong."

Immediately he saw King Yunzhou smile: "Then let's go to Liang Jing to see."

Jin Yan immediately knelt down on the ground, not daring to answer any more words.

At this time, there was a pass from the imperial guards outside the Changying Palace, and after he greeted Tianjun, he whispered a few words in Awa's ear.Awa was both surprised and amused: "He brought Langdi here too?"

He didn't seem to be angry, he glanced at Jin Yan and whispered in the guard's ear.The imperial guards led away, and Ava changed his posture and heaved a sigh of relief: "Jin Yan, do you know what happened to Lie Xingjiang now?"

Zhe Weng gave a half-smile, and then glanced at the boundless Ava.

"I've heard about it." Jin Yan replied.

"The twelve cities in Jiangbei are all good places." Ava asked, "Have you been there?"

"No." Jin Yan knew that the Beirong people had chosen him as a hostage, so they must have investigated his past life clearly, so he didn't hide anything, "I was born in Fenghu City, and I never left after returning to Liangjing."

Awa stroked his chin: "Fenghu... the headquarters of the Northwest Army? Then you have seen and heard a lot."

Jin Yan decided to take the initiative and pull this long and irrelevant conversation to the direction he really wanted to grasp.

"At that time, when I was young, many things were treated as gossip, and I didn't seek deep understanding." He replied respectfully, "The matters related to Beirong Tianjun and Yunzhou King were only heard by the people in Beidu, and Jin Yan only learned about them."

Zhe Weng became interested: "How do they talk about it?"

"Heavenly Lord is now building a great cause for the Bei Rong. The people are looking forward to the southward movement of the pasture after spring, so that the sheep and horses will have better grass." Jin Yan paused, pretending to hesitate, "But..."

Ava immediately echoed: "But what?"

"It is also said that Tianjun and Yunzhou Wang Tucheng are addicted, and this time they will kill all the twelve cities in Jiangbei to win the prize."

The smile on Zhe Weng's face disappeared, and he said coldly: "Who is chewing this hot bastard's tongue?"

"Most of them are from Nushan, Geluntie or Qisheng." Jin Yan said in a low voice, "It's easy to hear these words, but don't take them seriously."

Zhe Weng knocked the tea bowl on the low table, and said with a bang, "Why didn't you take it seriously? I did slaughter Nu Shan, Ge Lun Tie and Qi Sheng, why? You dare not talk about it?"

***

He Lansone waited for a long time at the city gate.When the soldiers at the city gate learned that he was Helan Jinying's younger brother, they feared and respected him at the same time, and let him sit under the stone wall for a while.

His hair color and eye color are rare, and the soldiers are curious about him, and they can't help but look at him secretly.The guards had all changed their shifts, and only those who wore the uniforms of the imperial guards came out to talk to the goalkeeper.

He came to He Lansone and said respectfully and politely, "He Lansone, King Yunzhou asked me to bring you into the palace."

He Lansone followed him through the big vermilion iron gate before saying, "I recognize you. You were one of the guards who escorted King Yunzhou back last night."

The imperial guard laughed immediately: "I recognize you too! The king of Yunzhou went out yesterday and originally brought a guard team of more than 20 people. He thought there were too many people, so he singled out the nine closest people. Unexpectedly... how many people are there?" You have to be righteous, otherwise our group of people will lose their heads."

Zhe Weng had already killed quite a few guards, and the only ones left were Ava who begged for mercy after he woke up.This person has lingering fears, and seeing He Lansone can't help getting closer.He knew that his injuries were not serious, and after staying in the ice and snow for so long, he specially brought He Lansone a bowl of hot oil tea when he passed the guard camp.

He Lansone missed Jin Yan, drank it in a hurry and urged him to move forward.The imperial guard smiled and said, "King Yunzhou and your slave are talking, don't worry."

He Lansone: "Where's Tianjun?"

Guard: "Heavenly Monarch is also here."

He Lansone's heart immediately hung up, and he walked for a while before speaking: "I know that Tianjun is not an unreasonable king who kills people indiscriminately, otherwise he would not let us Gaoxin people live in Yetai, and let us Eldest brother will be a general."

The imperial guard immediately laughed and said, "Tianjun is Mingjun."

"It's just..." He Lansone lowered his voice, "It's really cruel that Tianjun put down the civil strife among the five tribes."

There are five major tribes in Beirong, Qinglu, Nushan, Geluntie, Qisheng and Yetai. Qinglu is the largest, Nushan is next, and Yetai is the smallest.Lao Tianjun is a member of the Qinglu tribe, and the civil strife among the five major tribes began just before Lao Tianjun's death.

Before his death, Lao Tianjun insisted on sending troops to Da Yu, but was defeated by Jin Mingzhao on the border, resulting in numerous casualties.At that time, Bei Rong was empty in the rear, and the three tribes of Nushan, Geluntie and Qisheng, who had always disobeyed God, held General Yetaihu hostage, and the four tribes jointly sent troops to threaten Beidu and force God to abdicate.

Zhe Weng was injured at the border and returned to Beidu, only to find out that God has gone.He took over as Tianjun in the chaos, assembled more than [-] remnants, first wiped out the Glentie tribe with the smallest army, broke the alliance of the three tribes, and released General Yetaihu.After Yetai broke away from the control of the three tribes, he joined forces with Zheweng to attack the Qisheng tribe.More than half of the Qisheng tribe was killed or injured, and the alliance of the three tribes was completely broken.

Afterwards, the remnants of Geluntie and Qisheng were deployed by Zhe Weng. Zhe Weng assembled nearly [-] troops from the four tribes and completely crushed the Nushan tribe, which was the first to rebel.

Backed by the mountains, the Nushan tribe owns a large area of ​​grassland and pastures second only to the Qinglu tribe, and has a thriving population.However, during the two-year war, the people of Nushan were killed or wounded. After the dust settled, Zhe Weng slaughtered all the soldiers in the Nushan camp.

It is said that there is a huge pit in the mountains behind the Nushan tribe, and all the bones of the Nushan people are buried.Zhe Weng did not allow the Nushan people to worship, nor did he allow any rituals, and let wild beasts and birds devour him.So in the quiet summer night, you can often hear the mountains crying at night, and there are even ghosts lying on the road, and the lamps are domineering, which is very frightening.

Because of this, many people in the Nushan Tribe held resentment towards Zhe Weng and King Yunzhou, and assassinations continued one after another.

The imperial guard admired King Yunzhou very much, so he couldn't help defending King Yunzhou: "Of course we must be more ruthless in order to put down the chaos, otherwise those of us who follow King Yunzhou through life and death, don't know where we will die."

While speaking, the imperial guards had brought him to the side entrance of Changying Palace.The crowd of people in the square in front of the palace could not be seen from the side door, and the guard signaled He Lansone to keep his voice down and not to speak.After walking through several twists and turns, the two just stepped into a door when He Lansone immediately heard Jin Yan's voice.

"... Slaughtering the twelve cities in the north of the river will cause all kinds of harm but no benefit. Tianjun wants to make great achievements for all ages. I think Tianjun will never do such a thing that is not beneficial and damages the luck of heaven."

His heart relaxed for a moment, then tightened again.

After Jin Yan finished speaking, there was no one in the palace.He Lansone could only hear the sound of the teacup colliding with the table, and the atmosphere was stagnant, as if glued.

Across the wall is the main hall where Zhe Weng, Awa and Jin Yan talked.The great witch and Princess Yunzhou stood beside them without saying a word.

"Hundred harms?" Zhe Weng chuckled, "Bei Rong has controlled Chiwangyuan for so many years, and I have never heard the saying that massacring the city is harmful. Da Yu, if you can tell a hundred harms today, I will forgive you, forgive me The people of Dayu in the twelve cities in Jiangbei."

Jin Yan's heart tightened: a hundred? !But he quickly calmed himself down, which was at least one hope he had won.

"Please Tianjun give me a cup of tea..."

"No, tell me right now." Zhe Weng smiled, "I heard that Da Yu is quick-witted, but I wonder if Jin Mingzhao's son has such a mind?"

Ava suddenly coughed twice, and raised his hand as if he was enduring severe pain: "He can talk, but I can't listen to that much. Let's say ten, if there are reasons and evidence, I will let you go." .”

Zhe Weng turned his head to look at him, Ava closed his eyes half-closed, frowned tightly, and moaned humbly, while the princess waited aside with frowning.Zhe Weng no longer insisted: "Ten harms, let's talk about it now."

The lamps and candles in the palace were all on, and the smell of burning oil mixed with medicinal herbs, blood and spirits completely surrounded Jin Ye.He seems to be in a fog, the exit is vague, and he has no other way but to feel forward.

After kneeling for a long time, his knees hurt and his feet were numb.Awa leaned on the low table to look at him, and suddenly said: "Stand up and say, don't kneel, it's not good to kneel."

Zhe Weng couldn't help looking at him again: "Awa, do you know this slave?"

"I don't know you." Ava was very frank, "I met you for the first time today."

"then you……"

Before Zhe Weng finished speaking, Jin Yan, who stood upright, had already spoken: "The first harm is the loss of people's lives. If water has a source, it will flow endlessly; if a tree has roots, its life will be endless. The people are the foundation of a country. , Injuring the lives of the people is like cutting trees and cutting off water, destroying the roots.”

Zhe Weng sneered: "It's nothing special."

"The second harm is that the order of the twelve cities in Jiangbei is broken. Jiangbei is far away from Liangjing. Although the guards of the twelve cities have not done much, they have kept the passage between Beirong and Dayu open for many years without hindrance. Once the city is massacred, The order in the city must be greatly damaged. It is difficult to establish an order, but it is easy to break the custom, especially in the city, it is even more difficult to re-enact the order after it is destroyed."

He paused for a moment, and then added: "Just like rebuilding order after the civil strife in the five parts, Tianjun and Yunzhou King must be more aware of the difficulties than me."

Ava sat up straight, and Zhe Weng also put down the tea bowl in his hand.

"The third evil is damage to the buildings in the city." Jin Yan stood up straight, his voice was clear and clear, without any tremor or hesitation in his tone, as if all the articles were in his heart, "The twelve cities in Jiangbei are close to Beirong, and the customs have been changed for many years. Row upon row, big cities such as Pingzhou, Bishan, and Sangdan are even more majestic. They have both the style of Dayu and the style of Beirong. The massacre of the city will definitely be accompanied by the destruction of the city, and fire and looting are even more inevitable. The buildings in the city are not built in a day If it is damaged, it will be extremely difficult to recover.”

He took a deep breath and tightly twisted his hands into his sleeves: "The fourth evil is related to the ship."

As soon as these words came out, Zhe Weng and Awa really showed interest.Jin Yan became more and more sure that Bei Rong was always brooding about his inability to build ships and cross rivers.

"In the outskirts of Bishan City, there is the largest port in Liexing Jiangjiang North. Most of the people who work, build ships, navigate, and transport in the port of Bishan City are Dayu people. If these people are gone, if Beirong wants to rebuild it, it will be able to cross the ferry. Xingjiang's big ship will have to wait at least ten years."

Zhe Weng let out a long sigh, and for the first time ever, his stern and non-smiling face showed enthusiasm: "Continue talking."

Jin Yan nodded: "The fifth harm is that it will hurt the hearts of Beirong people. Dayu and Beirong have a lot of contacts, and there are naturally many people who marry the two countries in the twelve cities in Jiangbei. Dayu's husband, Dayu Should or should not be killed? If the massacre order really comes down, who will be responsible for distinguishing who should be slaughtered and who should not be slaughtered? During the massacre, who can guarantee Won't it hurt a Beirong person?"

Ava turned his head to look at Zhe Weng: "I have thought about the four harms he mentioned earlier, but this one is really unexpected."

Zhe Weng ignored his interruption and repeated: "Continue."

"The first five evils are related to the twelve cities in Jiangbei, and the last five evils directly affect the eternal achievements of the Beirong army and Tianjun." He looked solemn, as if he was not in front of a palace of a foreign race, but a court hall where he could speak freely. Six evils, the massacre of the city will definitely make the military discipline slack. In fact, in the Central Plains, the land has changed its owner for thousands of years, and the history books of the massacre of the city and the village are recorded. Orders are an opening to vent, and it does allow angry people to vent, but how do those soldiers and generals in the army who are unwilling to slaughter the city deal with themselves?"

Ava asked: "How to say?"

"Those who don't want to kill, but kill thousands of people with their own hands, and those who are willing to kill, treat the massacre as a practice. The two types of people have to return to the same military camp to live together, and the hidden crisis is difficult to eliminate."

In front of him, Zhe Weng and Awa were completely enthralled.

And He Lansone, who was separated by a wall, couldn't see Jin Yan, but could only hear his voice.He had never heard Jin Ye speak in such a way and tone, it seemed that he was not his friend, not the proton he knew.

"The seventh evil, the massacre of the city will make Tianjun stained with sin. Tianjun is the son of God who looks forward to the original world. He came to the world to experience everything in the world. The son of God will eventually return to the side of the god. He cannot go back with sin and blood debt."

Zhe Weng suddenly laughed loudly, and said to the big witch, "Did you say that?"

The big witch stared at Jin Yan with old eyes, and smiled hidden in his messy white beard: "I just said it casually, but he actually remembered it."

Jin Yan bowed his hands to the big witch, and stood straight again: "The eighth evil, the massacre of the city will damage the friendship between Dayu and Beirong. The two countries are adjacent to each other and have always had business exchanges. You can still come and go. But once the city is slaughtered, Bei Rong and Dayu will become eternal enemies, and this injury is like a chasm, which can never be repaired."

He stopped suddenly because he saw Zhe Weng nodded slightly.

"The ninth evil, the massacre of the city will make Tianjun a symbol of fear."

"Fear? What's wrong with fear?" Zhe Weng asked aloud.

Jin Yan thought for a while and replied: "There is a saying in Da Yu that those who govern a country never forget fishermen and woodcutters. Fishermen and woodcutters are lowly in status, but if you are a king, you can remember the life and death, cold and warmth, wealth and poverty of the humble people. In your heart, the people will respect and look up to you instead of fearing you. Fear will breed resentment, and resentment will bring turmoil. Therefore, you should make the people respect you, not make the world fear you."

Ava completely forgot about the injury on his arm, and even clapped his hands.

Zhe Weng asked, "What about the tenth evil?"

"The tenth evil is closely related to Tianjun's eternal achievements." Jin Yan raised his head slightly and looked into Zhe Weng's eyes. At this moment, he actually imagined himself as his father Jin Mingzhao, or the man who loved to hit his palm and then stuffed him with fried rice. Mr. Xixi of Chestnut, "Those who look up high should not ignore the lower ones, and those who look forward should not ignore the latter. The people are the source of long flowing water and the root of ten thousand years of trees. And the king of heaven is like the ocean, the sky is shining brightly, and you have established meritorious deeds for all ages. The heart of the people, the water will always flow to you, and the tree will always be close to you. Only when the hearts of the people are united, can there be merits forever. If the massacre order is issued, the hearts of the people will be scattered and the foundation will collapse."

Jin Yan finished speaking in one breath, quietly waiting for the reactions of Zhe Weng and Ava.

Zhe Weng narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Jin Ye without blinking, like a wolf watching its prey.Ava applauded the wound again, and his hands were bleeding, but he was still excited: "Abba, what he said is much better than Long Tuqin! No, there is no such person in our hall." .”

"Long Tuqin's eyes are too old." Zhe Weng said with a smile, "Why did he miss his eyes?"

Jin Yan sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so he quickly knelt down.He remembered the name "Long Tuqin", and it was Long Tuqin who signed the Pingzhou Alliance with Da Yu in Pingzhou City that day and designated him as a hostage.

At this moment, Zhe Weng really wanted to bring Long Tuqin over, so he slapped him hard first.Long Tuqin met Jin Yan in Liang Jing, and he said that Jin Yan and Jin Mingzhao were indeed not at all alike, not only timid and fearful, but also lacking great strategy and strategy, he looked pale and thin because of his illness, and was always surrounded by Emperor Renzheng. The two princes and concubines squeezed their hands and rubbed their faces together, not daring to resist.

Jin Mingzhao gave birth to a good-for-nothing son—that's what Long Tuqin said at the time.

Zhe Weng said slowly: "Jin Yan, do you know that Helan Jinying is the first foreign general in Beirong?"

Jin Yan hurriedly replied: "I know."

"how do you feel?"

"General He Lan is brave and invincible, and he deserves it."

Zhe Weng smiled: "I'm asking you, do you think it's good or bad for Beirong to let a foreigner be the general?"

Jin Yan's heart tightened.He couldn't decipher what kind of signal it was for a while, but...it was always right to praise Beirong Tianjun.

"Recruit talents without sticking to one pattern, Tianjun really has the spirit of a god." He tried his best to say this obviously too much flattery, "Anyone who is useful can display their talents in Beirong, Tianjun is like this..."

"What about you?" Zhe Weng didn't want to hear him lie anymore, so he interrupted the question.

Jin Yan was taken aback: "...Me?"

Zhe Weng looked at him condescendingly: "Jin Yan, would you like to assist me in my achievements in the hall?"

Jin Yan knelt on the ground, feeling cold all over his body, and his bones trembled. ——This is the consequence he never thought of!

The guillotine was just above his head, and he could almost feel the sharp blade against the skin on the nape of his neck: Zeon was waiting for his answer.He immediately remembered the words of the great witch clearly - he is the one who deserves to be killed.

This might be a straw that Zhe Weng gave him, but he couldn't let himself hold it.He never thought about being an official in Beirong and enjoying the glory and wealth in Beirong.

"The great witch said, you should be killed." Zhe Weng said slowly, "He smelled the scent of a young eagle from you. But I think he missed his mark, Jin Yan, you are a young wolf, and you will become a great weapon. But If the cub can't be used by me, why let him live in this world?"

Jin Yan unconsciously grasped the rug on the ground with his fingers.The patterns and colors of the tapestry are dazzling.He heard Zhe Weng say again: "I never thought of slaughtering the city, but the harm is not as deep as you said."

Jin Yan felt relieved for a moment, but then brought it up again.

"I give you a chance to see if you have the shadow of Jin Mingzhao. Jin Yan, I admire you very much, and I will give you a chance. You have two choices in front of you: die in Chiwangyuan now, with your bones intact." No one gathers you, or you can enter the council hall, eat well and dress well, and return to Dayu in a glorious manner as a member of the Beirong Councilor, so that Liang Jing's people can see how majestic you are."

When he stopped talking, his voice seemed to disappear completely.He Lansone had to stick close to the door in order to hear the voice on the other side clearly.

"I won't enter the council hall." Jin Yan said.

"You don't think about it carefully?"

"Don't think about it." Jin Yan knelt on the ground, his back straight, without fear, "I am from Da Yu."

Zhe Weng sat back on the low couch with a gloomy expression, obviously he didn't intend to give him another chance.But just as he raised his hand, Ava suddenly interrupted his movement.

"Father, I forgot one thing. The Yetai herdsman who rescued me last night happened to be Helan Jinying's younger brother." Ava smiled and looked at Jin Ye who raised his head suddenly, "I still have a wolf In his hands. To save my life, he himself was seriously injured."

"You are the king of Yunzhou, of course he will risk his life to save you."

"At that time he didn't know my identity, and I even just met him." Ava said, "He fought with his life. I haven't figured out how to repay this kindness. Let his little slave die on your side. It's not good."

Zhe Weng put on a half-smile: "I said, why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden tonight? You want to see this little slave, and you talk so much nonsense....Okay, then let him continue to be a slave. Rong's slave."

After speaking, he got up and wanted to leave.When passing by Jin Yan, he suddenly stopped.

Jin Yan knelt on the ground with his hands outstretched, which is the etiquette for slaves to meet the emperor.

His arms were smooth and clean, without scars.

"...You don't have a slave mark?" Zhe Weng asked, "Without a mark, how can you be a slave of Bei Rong?"

Jin Yan's heart was pounding suddenly.

"Ava, your savior is his patriarch? He is in Changying Palace?" Zhe Weng laughed loudly after receiving an affirmative answer, "Then let him imprint this great man."

***

When King Yunzhou's men invited He Lansone out, Jin Yan was being held by the shoulders to prevent him from moving.

The hearth in the hall is raging, and a fire is burning inside.

"Yetai Helan's house, do you have a family mark?" Zhe Weng asked.

He Lansone didn't even hear Zhe Weng's question, he just looked at Jin Yan.Jin Yan also stared at him, those black bead-like eyes were full of emotions that he couldn't understand.

"No." Ava replied instead of He Lansone, "His family is from Gaoxin, how could Gaoxin people have a family mark in Beirong."

"That's just right. Since we are in Changying Palace, we will give this slave the family mark of King Yunzhou." Zhe Weng said with a smile, "Even if he is a slave, he is still higher than other slaves."

He Lansone replied bluntly: "He doesn't need to fight."

Ava bit the corner of his lip.Zhe Weng looked at He Lansone carefully: "You look similar to your father. I heard that he has three children? Besides you and He Lan Jinying, who else?"

A guard pushed He Lansone behind him, and he had to kneel in front of Zhe Weng.

"I don't even listen to Tianjun's words. Are the people of Yetai Helan's family trying to rebel?" After the man finished scolding, he bent down and said softly to Helansone, "Don't be stubborn! King Yunzhou wants to help you. But Tianjun is angry, there are three hundred lives in your family and it is not enough to die."

He stuffed the torch into He Lansone's hand and let him hold it.

The soldering iron was stuck on the wooden pole, and the fire was only the size of a copper coin, and it was burning red.He Lansone stood up holding the torch and walked in front of Jin Yan.He grabbed Jin Yan's hand, and found that thin arm trembling in his hand.

"Please... don't..."

The first time Jin Yan begged him, thin tears welled up in those once happy black eyes.He looked at Helansone with unfamiliar eyes, with fear and intense pain, his arms were shaking in Helansone's palm.

He Lansone wanted to withdraw his hand, but the guard had already rolled up Jin Yan's sleeve, exposing his white arm.

Zhe Weng drank the oil tea in the bowl, and said to Ava chattingly: "I have become a slave of my Beirong, and I still think that I am from Dayu. What kind of Dayu people, Beirong people, how can a slave be considered a human being?" ?”

He said with a smile: "With this mark, he is just looking at the original animal."

Jin Yan tightly closed his eyes.He Lansone hung the torch on his arm, very close to him.But the fire never came down, only the scalding temperature scorched his skin.

He opened his eyes and bumped into He Lansone's wolf pupils.

Amidst the strong and complex smells in the room, Jin Yan suddenly smelled the blood and herbs on He Lansone's body.Only then did he realize that the front of He Lansone's chest had been cut by a knife, wrapped in a thick cloth, and there was a circle of blood soaked through the cloth on his legs.The people of Gaoxin, who had always moved like the wind, looked pale and weak at this moment, crumbling.

His leg was injured and he couldn't ride a horse. He came to Wangcheng.He saved the life of King Yunzhou by mistake, and King Yunzhou said that he "fighted with his life".He Lansone's "fighting with life" made Yunzhou King try his best to save his life tonight.Jin Yan burst into tears, he felt a thousand kinds of pain in his heart, and finally he just murmured: "Are you in pain..."

Huobao is always suspended in the air and must not fall.He Lansone bit his lip, he couldn't mark Jin Yan as a slave, he couldn't do it.

Zhe Weng smiled and slapped the table to get up.

At this moment, a figure flashed behind He Lansone.The big witch grabbed He Lansone's hand, pressed down heavily, and the fire immediately landed on Jin Ye's arm!
