General's Gown

Yan Changqing stared at Zhang Jian's face, he couldn't care less about the courtiers' treatment of each other, he just wanted to cut him into pieces to pay tribute to the countless lives in Qixia Village.However, as soon as Zhang Jian said these words, it seemed like a basin of ice water poured down his head, which made him calm down instantly.

Or rather, shudder.

help me?

Yan Changqing murmured.In fact, since Helian Rongchuan was surrounded just now, he had a terrible conjecture, and maybe now is the time to confirm it.

Yan Changqing suddenly felt that the anger in his heart had no reason to vent, he only felt that it was inexplicably absurd.His figure shook slightly, his hand loosened, and Zhang Jian finally fell to the ground.He coughed violently twice, ignoring the pain in his chest, struggled to get up, and took out a jade scroll and silk brocade from his arms.

Holy decree.

With bloody fingers trembling, he slowly opened the jade scroll, and on the rich and splendid brocade of auspicious clouds and cranes, familiar handwriting jumped into view.Yan Changqing still remembers that when he was Murong Xiu's accompanying reader, he wrote the thin gold with a strong character. .

But now, every word written with the vermilion pen seems to be soaked in human blood, and each stroke is like a sharp dagger piercing into Yan Changqing's heart.

Sarcastic and cruel.

Yan Changqing raised his head and let out a miserable laugh. He felt a surge of blood in his chest. He pressed down forcefully, and with a flick of his wrist, the imperial decree fell into the blood on the ground.

Zhang Jian hurried forward to hold the imperial decree in his hand, and carefully wiped off the blood on it.He knew the weight of this edict, because every single word in it was Yan Emperor Murong Xiu's commendation of Yan Changqing's achievements in strangling the border water bandits.

It turned out that Murong Xiu had already sent an eyeliner to understand the reason why Quen Xueshi was robbed.Zhang Jian still remembers Murong Xiu's distorted and terrifying expression when he mentioned that Dongyun man.

After all, the other party was the second prince of Dong Yun, so it was not easy to deal with it, but Murong Xiu thought of a plan.

Isn't there a lot of water bandits on the Jiaolu River at the border?So if you regard the small village by the river as the old den of water bandits, it makes sense.

Therefore, the entire Qixia Village can become a sacrifice for Murong Xiu to build up military prestige for Yan Changqing and wash away his guilt.With this imperial decree, there is the safest explanation for the loss of the quenching snow stone, which will neither cause trouble for the Dongyun people, nor arouse the impeachment and suspicion of Yan Changqing by the officials.

If it is said that the people in Qixia Village are all water bandits who robbed the Quenxue Stone, then they are.

Anyway, the dead don't make excuses.As for Prince Dongyun, he was killed and burned together. With so many dead bones, who would recognize who?

The little chubby girl looked at the silent Yan Changqing with some perplexity and fear: "Big brother, what's the matter with you?"

what happened?

Yan Changqing looked at Helian Rongchuan blankly, with a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth: "I was blinded by the wind."

Helian Rongchuan stared at Yan Changqing quietly. , suddenly felt a kind of emotion surging in my heart that I had never felt before, was it pity, resentment, or sadness?He didn't know, but he felt that there was too much despair and bitterness in his chest, and he really wanted to hold the person in front of him firmly in his arms, so as to heal all the sad emotions.

However, when he saw that imperial decree, he knew that he could never do it again.

"It turns out that this is the emperor's policy. It's really wonderful, wonderful!"

Helian Rongchuan clapped his hands again and again, and couldn't help laughing miserably.

Seeing him like this, Yan Changqing felt a severe pain in his heart, but he couldn't explain anymore.Zhang Jian's face changed, and he shouted: "This man is the leader of the water bandits, catch him quickly!!"

He Lian Rongchuan looked at Zhang Jian, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and said: "I am the majestic Prince Dongyun, how dare you!"

Zhang Jian sneered and said, "I don't know Prince Dongyun, I only know that you are the leader of water bandits!"

Before the words were finished, more than a dozen sharp arrows swished like Helian Rongchuan, but Helian Rongchuan was already prepared, and dodged sideways, turning over and retreating.Zhang Jian's men in black immediately chased after him without waiting for an order.

Yan Changqing was furious, and grabbed Zhang Jian's lapel: "Stop! Let them stop!!!"

Zhang Jian's face was pale, but he said seriously: "Has General Yan not noticed yet? These men in black are all Qilin Guards directly under the emperor!"

Kylin Guard!

Yan Changqing was astonished.The qilin guards are elite guards selected by Murong Xiu himself. They have no rank and rank, and have always been dispatched by Murong Xiu alone.Even Zhang Jian from the second rank could not give them direct orders.

A trace of panic flashed in Yan Changqing's eyes, and he ran towards Helian Rongchuan recklessly.

The setting sun was about to set, and the color of the clouds all over the sky became deeper, as if the whole sky was stained scarlet by the blood of Qixia Village.On the cliff lined with boulders, Helian Rongchuan was heavily surrounded, retreating to the edge step by step, his chest, abdomen and arms were all slightly or heavily stabbed.Every time he took a step back, there was another bloody footprint on the ground.

But in his amber-like eyes, there is still a fearless and fierce light, like a lion who is in a desperate situation and still refuses to admit defeat.

Below the cliff is the Jiaolu River. If you jump off, what are your chances of surviving?

The premise is that you have to dodge the countless rows of sharp arrows in front of you.

"stop!"

Suddenly, with a sharp shout, a familiar figure appeared in front of his eyes.

Helian Rongchuan's face was pale, and thousands of emotions surged in his chest, whether it was regret, resentment, okay, or foolishness, all of them finally turned into a gentle smile at the corner of his mouth.

It would be nice to see him before he died.

Seeing Yan Changqing galloping over, the men in black were apprehensive, but none of them put down their bows and arrows. Only one man in black, who seemed to be the leader, said coldly: "Master Yan, forgive me, our Qilin Guard only listens to the orders of the current emperor. I need to kill this person today, please don’t get in the way!”

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of bows and arrows were all aimed at Helian Rongchuan. With just one command, Helian Rongchuan would definitely die here!

Yan Changqing looked at the gleaming arrows of the men in black around him, and suddenly felt a sense of absurdity and powerlessness in his heart.He knew that every knife and every arrow of this Qilin Guard had added a sufficient amount of snow quenching stone, making it extremely sharp.

Was the quenching snow stone that he had worked so hard to obtain to be used to kill the person he cherished?

Yan Changqing knew that even though he was still [-] to [-]% sure that he would kill the leader of the man in black with one blow, he also knew that Helian Rongchuan might be shot to death by random arrows the moment he shot.

Yan Changqing took a deep breath, tried to calm down his emotions, turned around, and said to the man in black, ""Didn't the imperial decree say that I have made great achievements in suppressing bandits? "

The man in black was stunned: "What does your lord mean?"

"Then I must kill this person myself."

"This..." The man in black was a little shaken, and he couldn't help but feel that Yan Changqing's words seemed to make sense.

Anyway, under his nose, can this Dongyun person survive?So he nodded in agreement.

Yan Changqing took the bow and arrow and drew it without hesitation. The arrow pointed at Helian Rongchuan's heart.

Helian Rongchuan's heart was shaken, he couldn't help but take half a step forward, and said in disbelief: "Changqing—you?"

Yan Changqing pursed his lips tightly, said nothing, his face was as pale as paper, and he pulled the bow and arrow motionless.In the eyes that were as clear as black mercury, there were faint waves of light floating.

No one noticed that Yan Changqing, the famous first archer in Yan Kingdom who pierced Yang with a hundred steps, was trembling slightly at this moment when he drew the bow.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Helian Rongchuan seemed to understand something suddenly, and the shock on his face was replaced by a sad smile.He lowered his head and let out a long sigh, looking at Yan Changqing's expressionless face with some reluctance.

It turned out that in the end, he still couldn't warm up the ice.Everything is his wishful thinking.

Helian Rongchuan said softly: "I understand. That's fine, that's fine. I won't blame you."

"General Yan, come on."

Helian Rongchuan slowly closed his eyes.

It's getting dark.Accompanied by the setting sun that was about to disappear into the sky, a sharp arrow pierced through the wind and shot into Helian Rongchuan's chest.

Helian Rongchuan staggered a step back, gave Yan Changqing a last look with nostalgia and sadness, stepped on the air, turned over and fell off the cliff.

A strong wind blew up, black hair fluttered with the wind, Yan Changqing stared straight at the empty cliff, suddenly felt blood surge in his chest, and his throat was sweet, he knelt on his knees with a plop, and spit out a big mouthful of blood.

"Master Yan!"

Yan Changqing could no longer hear any sound, his vision went dark, and he passed out.
