Former Qin Fengyun

Chapter 33 Murong Ling's Death 【Part [-]】

When Murong Ling, who returned to the country of Yan alone, came to the gate of Yecheng, the gatekeeper general immediately ordered him to be captured alive.Although Murong Ling was outstanding in martial arts, he was exhausted from traveling long distances, so he was arrested and sent to Shangyong Palace.

Murong Ling, who just found out that what Jin Xi said was false, was filled with remorse, and even more furious after seeing Murong Ping, so he stood up instead of kneeling.Knowing his temperament, Murong Ping didn't ask any further questions, and ordered someone to put him in a sky prison, and then he went to the palace to meet the Queen Mother Kezuhun and told him about it.

Queen Mother Ke Zuhun asked suspiciously: "Wu Wang won't go back to Yan because of this, what's the use of keeping a son, he should be killed."

But Murong Ping said: "Fleeing from Qin State, everyone in Yan State undoubtedly thinks what you and I did, so they don't embrace it. But today is a good opportunity, how can we not use it?"

The Empress Dowager Ke Zuhun looked at him puzzled.

Murong Ping smiled and asked, "Where is Lin'er?"

Murong Ling, who was sitting alone in the prison, raised his head and looked at the stars in the sky through the small window, and couldn't help crying.He regretted his negligence, mistakenly believed in Jin Xi, and ended up in this land.It is not a pity to die, but Qin Guo will definitely use this to threaten his father, and even bring about murder.

At that moment, the cell boss suddenly opened the cell door, Murong Ling looked up and saw that it was the younger brother Murong Lin.He came in with a food box in his hand, sat beside Murong Ling and called, "Brother."

Murong Ling said angrily: "Why did you come here, and what is your intention? If you didn't tell the truth, how could you escape to Qin?"

Murong Lin lowered his head and said, "Lin'er is reluctant to leave his mother and concubine." He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Murong Ling, who was kind by nature, saw his younger brother like this, the anger in his heart quietly dissipated, and he said in a gentle tone: "Go back."

Murong Lin took out a plate of exquisite snacks from the food box and said, "This is my elder brother's favorite lotus seed cake."

Murong Ling took it and put it in his mouth.Murong Lin tried to ask: "Is it delicious?" Murong Ling nodded with a smile.

At this moment, a person walked in from the outside and shouted: "Lin'er! You are so daring! How dare you visit the imperial court for a felon!"

Murong Lin shook his hands in fright, and the plate of lotus seed cakes fell to the ground.When Murong Lin saw that it was Taifu Shangyong Wang Murong Ping, he blocked Murong Lin behind him in a rage, and then said with wide eyes: "Lin'er is still young, why bother to scare him? If you can't vent your anger, come to me That's right!"

Murong Ping said angrily: "Huangkou kid!"

At this time, Murong Lin raised his head and said to Murong Ping: "Uncle Si Huang, please let eldest brother go?"

Murong Ping suddenly raised his right foot and kicked him to the ground, and Murong Ling hurriedly helped his younger brother Murong Lin up.Murong Ping said with a sneer: "Since the brotherhood is so deep, why not go to Shacheng together!"

Murong Ling shook his head and said: "Lin'er's mother is the Empress Dowager's younger sister, you" he didn't finish.Murong Ping waved his hand disdainfully and said, "Take it away!"

Along the way, the wind blew sand and stones and slapped Murong Ling's face and body in the prison car.But he did not despair at all. As his hatred for the court grew stronger, his will became stronger.

At this time, Murong Lin, who was lying in his arms, said in his heart: "If it weren't for you, how could I be like this? However, after you are executed, I will be a legitimate son." Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing .

Murong Ling bowed his head and asked, "Lin'er, why are you laughing?"

Murong Ling said hastily: "I'm happy because I'm reunited with eldest brother."

Murong Ling was moved and hugged him tightly, and said with moist eyes: "Lin'er, it's lucky to have you here. I won't let you suffer as a brother."

Murong Lin smiled and nodded.

A day later, everyone came to Shacheng.What came into view was full of ruins and ruins. The prisoners who were punished for their crimes were all poorly dressed, yellow and thin, and they all worked hard, no matter they were young or old.Murong Lin, who was pampered and spoiled since he was a child, tightly grasped Murong Ling's arm in fright.Although Murong Ling also felt the same, but after all, he quickly calmed down as an elder, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Big Brother is here."

After a while, the prison van arrived at the county government office. Murong Ling and Murong Lin were pulled out of the prison vehicle by officers and soldiers and brought into the county government office.

The county magistrate Meng Gui turned his nostrils to the sky and said, "Why don't you kneel when you see me!"

Murong Ling glared at him and said angrily: "Who are you and why are you kneeling?"

Meng Gui got up angrily, and shouted loudly: "I don't care how glorious you were before, but since you are here, you are all prisoners! Come, push them out of the door and beat them with sticks." He didn't finish speaking.

The adjutant beside him, She Gui, hurried over, saluted and said, "My lord." Meng Gui looked at him sideways.She Gui pointed at Murong Ling and Murong Lin with his fingers and said in a low voice: "After all, they are members of the royal family, why don't you forgive me?" He didn't continue.

Meng Gui said to himself, "Murong Ling is fearless, but Murong Lin's mother is the Queen Mother's sister." Thinking of this, Meng Gui regretted her recklessness just now, so she hurriedly said, "Put them in Liuyuan. "

After the two were escorted to Liuyuan, they found that although the place was small, it was quite elegant and there were four servants serving it.Murong Lin said with relief: "Finally I have a decent place to live."

But Murong Ling walked up to the four servants and asked, "Why is Liuyuan so different from the outside?"

The leading servant among them saluted and replied: "Reporting to the master, this was originally a place for entertaining superior officials."

Murong Lin immediately smiled and said, "He's smart!" Then he said to the servants, "Come and cook some good food! I'm already hungry!"

The servants saluted and said yes to go down.

After a while, the table was full of wine and food.Murong Lin immediately picked up the chopsticks and began to eat with big mouthfuls.But Murong Ling did not move for a long time.Murong Lin asked curiously, "Why doesn't elder brother eat?"

Murong Ling sighed softly and said, "I don't know where father is now? Is it safe?"

Murong Lin said to himself now: "If you die right now, it will be very satisfying, and I will naturally inherit the title of King Wu." But on the surface, he said in a pretentious manner: "Don't worry, my father is a lucky man, and he will get away safely." Murong Ling clicked nod.Murong Lin picked up the dishes and put them in Murong Ling's bowl.Only then did Murong Ling pick up his chopsticks and start eating.

But when he ate half of it, Murong Ling stopped eating again.Murong Lin tentatively asked: "The food doesn't suit your taste?"

Murong Ling shook his head and said: "When I first entered the city, I saw all the prisoners. They must not have enough to eat, but they have to work hard every day." He didn't finish.

But Murong Lin said nonchalantly: "You sinners should be like this."

Murong Ling frowned slightly, although he wanted to say something, he swallowed the words and said softly: "Let's eat."

The next day, after Murong Ling and Murong Lin had breakfast, they came to the hall to practice martial arts.At this moment, She Gui, who was dressed in casual clothes, came in, saluted the two of them and said, "I have seen the two young princes."

But Murong Ling said: "Since we are here, we are all prisoners." Then he said: "What happened yesterday, thank you for your help." After speaking, he had to salute.She Gui hurriedly stopped him and said, "How can a villain, how dare he accept such a great gift!"

Murong Ling stood up and said: "Huluo Pingyang was bullied by dogs, but my lord extended a helping hand."

She Gui smiled and said: "The villain joined the army in the early years, thanks to the appreciation of the King of Wu, he has come here as an official. But the villain has no ability to save the two, so he can only do some trivial things."

When Murong Ling heard this, he couldn't help but miss his father again.But Murong Lin said happily: "That's very good, then can you ask all the soldiers at the door to let my brother and I go out, and stay here for a long time to make it boring."

She Gui nodded and said, "But don't leave the city."

Murong Lin smiled and took Murong Ling's hand, and said, "Brother, let's go."

She Gui saluted and said, "The villain is willing to be your guide for the young prince."

When the three of them came to the street, what they saw was not feasting and feasting, but a dilapidated scene full of stench.Murong Lin curled his lips and said dissatisfied: "Let's go back to Liuyuan."

At this time, more than a dozen prisoners walked towards them, each holding a huge stone in their hands, and walked forward staggeringly.Suddenly, an old man who was nearly sixty years old suddenly fell to the ground, and the stone in his hand almost hit the soldiers beside him.When the soldiers saw it, they became furious, raised their leather whips and beat the old man hard, causing the old man to hug his head in pain and beg bitterly.

The upright Murong Ling stepped forward quickly, and shouted loudly: "Stop!"

The soldiers stopped and saw that he was not a prisoner in his clothes, so he said restrainedly: "Young master, this is a prisoner, it should be." He didn't finish speaking.

But Murong Ling said righteously: "Old people are old and people are old, young and people are young and people are young. He is over sixty years old, how can he do such a heavy job?"

After hearing this, the soldiers were very dissatisfied and said angrily, "This is decided by the county magistrate. Why do you dare to make such a mistake?"

The wide-eyed Murong Ling was just about to say something, when She Gui turned his face down and said to the soldiers: "Things with blind eyes, don't apologize to the little prince!"

As soon as the soldiers saw Shegui, they immediately followed suit.Murong Ling didn't look at him, but went straight to the old man's side and helped him up with his own hands.The old man hastily saluted and said, "The sinner has seen the young prince."

Murong Ling laughed at himself and said: "What little prince, I am a sinner just like you."

The old man asked puzzledly, "Who are you?"

Murong Ling replied: "Murong Ling."

Upon hearing this, the old man and the dozen or so prisoners asked in surprise, "You are the son of King Wu, no wonder you are so benevolent!"

Murong Ling said disheartenedly: "Yan Kingdom no longer has King Wu."

The old man said solemnly: "Justice rests in the hearts of the people."

Murong Ling said with reddened eyes, "Thank you."

At this time, She Gui saluted Murong Ling and said, "Little prince, let's go back to Liuyuan."

Murong Ling nodded.

After She Gui sent Murong Ling and Murong Lin back to Liuyuan, he once again told all the soldiers in the garden not to control their travel, and then left.

Murong Ling asked the servants in the house to retreat, and then whispered to Murong Lin: "Lin'er, I want to kill Meng Gui, the county magistrate, for my brother, so as to save all living beings from suffering."

Murong Lin was overjoyed in his heart, and said to himself: "You have finally made this decision." But on the surface, he said worriedly: "This is a dangerous move by soldiers, just in case" he hadn't finished speaking.

Murong Ling said: "Royal father's life or death is uncertain, and you and I are in a desperate situation. Instead of just surviving, it's better to give it a go and make a good name for royal father."

Murong Lin lowered his head and said, "I will go with my elder brother."

Murong Ling said emotionally, "Good!"

Murong Lin nodded and said: "It's easy to get it in the middle of the night, why not recharge your batteries first?"

Murong Ling said: "That makes sense." Then the two went back to their rooms to rest.

After a stick of incense, Murong Lin quietly left Liuyuan and ran towards the county government.But before he arrived, he was blocked by She Gui.Murong Lin said angrily: "I have something important to report, quickly back down!"

She Gui smiled slightly, took out a token from his bosom and handed it to Murong Lin.Murong Lin took a look and said with a smile, "So you are from King Shangyong."

She Gui saluted and said, "I don't know the news about the young prince?"

Murong Lin replied: "Ling wants to murder Meng Gui, the county magistrate, so he needs it." He didn't finish.

She Gui shook his head and said: "Let him get it for now, and then get rid of it. I have to trouble the little prince to go back to the garden first and keep a close watch on him."

Murong Lin bowed his head and said he was leaving.
