General's Gown
Chapter 31
Murong Xiu grabbed Yan Changqing's hand, and used it greedily to rub the side of his face, as if the bright red five finger prints left by the former emperor were still there.
"Your answer to your father embodies the courage and loyalty to fight for the common people in the world. This is the most important quality that a general should possess. But I am different from you."
Murong Xiu murmured: "Father gave me a slap to teach me a truth, that is, what is the "balance" of a monarch. As a monarch, the most important thing is to guard the country named "Murong". If water can replace soldiers ,Exchanging the lives of thousands of people for the permanent residence of the country, isn't that a very cost-effective deal?"
Yan Changqing withdrew his hand forcefully: "
"Buying and selling?! The lives of countless people, in your opinion, are just buying and selling?"
"Isn't it?" Murong Xiu asked back, laughing:
"In order to prevent the harem from being monopolized, I said that the son killed the mother. My mother and concubine family, up and down 72 lives, were exchanged for my throne. Isn't this just a business? And Qixia Village is just ordinary people, and their lives are far less than mine. The mother and concubine family are noble, wouldn't it be just right to use their lives to save your future and stop the mouths of those old ministers?"
"you……!"
Yan Changqing looked at Murong Xiu in disbelief.What happened to his little brother?Why did he become such a stranger to him?
"Aren't you afraid that once this matter is revealed, you will be scolded by the world and become a tyrannical king? Are you not afraid that you will hear ghosts crying every night from now on, and your conscience will never be at peace again?!"
As if he had heard something extremely ridiculous, Murong Xiu chuckled lowly, his shoulders kept shaking, and said: "Those unjust dead ghosts, if they want to cry beside my pillow, then cry, anyway, I can hear my mother and concubine every night. I'm tired of hearing the crying of the whole family, so why not do it with a different tune?"
There was a sharp pain in Yan Changqing's heart, and he suddenly felt extremely tired and powerless.
He didn't approve of the monarch's trade-offs, and he didn't understand why he had to sacrifice the lives of the entire Qixia Village and 53 followers to save his future.
"Compared to those hundreds of lives, I'm not that important...I'm not worth it..."
He has always been lofty and proud, and has never been a person who despises himself, but he cannot agree with Murong Xiu's choice no matter what.
"No! You are worth it!" Murong Xiu interrupted him suddenly, staring at Yan Changqing with piercing eyes, his eyes seemed to have flames flickering, "One Qixia Village only has a few hundred lives. So what if we lose the whole country? So what if I lose my own life? No one can set your mind on you, no one can snatch you away from me, no matter who it is, no matter who it is!"
In the last few sentences, Murong Xiu's expression showed a bit of fierceness and madness. Yan Changqing's heart was shocked, and he suddenly understood the scene on the cliff.Why did Zhang Jian and Qilin Wei know that Helian Rongchuan is the prince of Dongyun, but still want to take his life?
Yan Changqing looked at Murong Xiu without blinking: "So you must kill Helian Rongchuan? Have you ever thought that if King Dongyun finds out about this, the consequences—"
Yan Changqing's words were interrupted again, Murong Xiu's eyes flashed fiercely quickly, he made a sudden move, grabbed the back of Yan Changqing's head, and kissed him deeply without hesitation.
No!He would never allow his elder brother Changqing to say this name!
The name of that Dongyun man is like a poisonous snake entrenched in Murong Xiu's heart, every time that name is mentioned, that poisonous snake will suddenly open its glistening green eyes, spit out a bright red snake letter, and slam it into Murong Xiu's heart. Bite down hard.
Every time he heard the news of Yan Changqing and Helian Rongchuan coming from afar, Murong Xiu would tremble with anger.After learning that they were getting closer and closer, Murong Xiu almost killed the messenger who came to deliver the letter to vent his anger.He really regretted why he didn't discover that Dongyun's thoughts on Yan Changqing from the very beginning.
And Yan Changqing actually mentioned that name in front of him? !Even sad because of that person? !
If possible, he wished he could pick up the knife immediately and cut that name out of Yan Changqing's heart.He can't take it anymore!
Over the years, all his scruples and restraints completely collapsed in an instant.So what about monarchs and ministers, what about brothers?He didn't care.He knew that from a long time ago, he wanted to have Yan Changqing.
He wants him every moment.From soul to body.
He desperately wants to announce to the world that his Changqing can only belong to him alone!
The moment the two lips touched, Yan Changqing's eyes widened in surprise, and all the muscles in his body seemed to freeze in an instant.
Is he dreaming, or is Murong Xiu crazy? !
But that obsessive kiss, eyes intertwined with deep love and raging desire, hit his eyes so straightforwardly.That could not be more clear, loving and possessive intent!
Why?why?The shock was so strong that Yan Changqing trembled uncontrollably, and a dazzling white silk fluttering high suddenly appeared in his mind.
Concubine Xian was dressed in a snow-white mourning dress, with black silk hanging like a waterfall, and before leaving, she held his and Murong Xiu's hands tightly together.
Promise me that you will always be his elder brother and his subject forever.
Yan Changqing's heart trembled, and he used all his strength to push Murong Xiu off the couch.
Murong Xiu got up from the ground, his eyes were full of puzzlement and anger, almost growling:
"Why can he do this to you? I can't!"
Yan Changqing solemnly knelt on the ground without raising his head, and said word by word: "I am guilty! You should be punished!"
He could not live up to Concubine Xian's will, and absolutely could not allow Murong Xiu to cross that line for him.
Is it "Chen" again?
Murong Xiu snorted coldly, and held Yan Changqing's shoulder unwillingly, forcing him to raise his head.
This is such a beautiful and stubborn person, he is simply a gem that is brighter than any star.He must be in a daze, to actually believe that a hideous mask will cover up all the light of this person?Why would he reveal such a gem, for others to see and covet?
He should hide it, hide it in the deep palace, and only belong to him!
"Yan Changqing, you are guilty." Murong Xiu straightened up suddenly, looking down at Yan Changqing.
Since you must be a courtier, don't blame me for using my status as a king to get you.
"I'm punishing you to think about your mistakes behind closed doors. Without an edict, you are not allowed to leave this palace gate for half a step!"
Yan Changqing raised his head in astonishment.
This is the emperor's harem bedroom, he is a general with a foreign surname, a grown man, how can he be here—? !
At this moment, the voice of the little eunuch suddenly came from outside.The chief eunuch Liu Quan came forward with an urgent scroll carefully.When Murong Xiu unfolded it, his face suddenly changed color.
His fingers clenched the secret tightly, almost tearing the secret.
impossible!
There is no way he is still alive!
Murong Xiu waved his sleeves and strode across the threshold, leaving only a meaningful sentence:
"I will see you every day."
Zhu Hong's door slowly closed, and Yan Changqing stared at Murong Xiu's back as he walked further and further away, feeling a deep sense of panic and powerlessness in his heart that he had never felt before.
No.
He can't.
In the narrow and towering Rancui Canyon, a row of gorgeously decorated carriages is moving forward neatly and methodically.There are about fifty people in this train team, but half of them are women. They all wear light, yet noble red military uniforms, and ride on tall horses with their heads held high.I don't know how long I walked, but I could faintly hear the sound of water in the Rancui Canyon.In the most gorgeous and spacious car in the middle of the convoy, a soft female voice came out softly, and the whole team stopped immediately.
A boneless, white, tender and slender jade hand gently opened the car curtain covered with colorful tassels and golden thread butterflies, and a female guard on a horse immediately stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Princess?"
The curtain of the car was raised by the servants, and the woman in the car raised her head, gracefully leaned out half of her body, and looked at the scenery outside.In the early morning, there was a lot of moisture in the mountains, and the misty white mist lingered around the carriage. The moment the female guard raised her head, she was in a daze, as if she saw a fairy descending from the earth.
The woman in front of her was dressed in a simple but noble blue feather gauze dress, her waterfall-like green silk was simply tied in a bun with clouds, and only a white jade hibiscus flower decorated with South Sea snowdrops swayed slightly between her temples, which made her look even more beautiful. Women are like flowers and trees piled up with snow, as graceful as immortals.
This woman is Nanyao's number one beauty, Princess Xuanji.
Xuanji took a look outside, her beautiful eyes filled with joy. She turned her head and sat cross-legged in the carriage. The handsome man with his eyes closed said softly, "Your Highness, there seems to be a clear spring ahead. , let's stop and fix it, shall we?"
Her tone was quite intimate and coquettish, and her voice was soft and sweet.Helian Rongchuan slowly opened his eyes, the amber-like crystal eyes reflected the smiling beauty in front of him, without any emotion.The corner of the mouth is slightly curved:
"it is good."
When the two got out of the car, Helian Rongchuan's feet were floating, and his figure couldn't help shaking slightly. Xuanji quickly went to help her, but she didn't have much strength, she couldn't hold it up all at once, she grabbed it with her backhand, and threw herself into Helian Rongchuan arms.
A faint blush suddenly appeared on the delicate face that seemed to be creamy: "Your Highness?"
Helian Rongchuan helped Xuanji up without showing any signs of expression, and said, "Princess, be careful."
"It's all my fault." Xuanji Xiumei frowned slightly, and said with some guilt: "Who on earth shot your arrow? Such a poisonous heart, even wiped the poison on the arrow. I have visited so many famous doctors, but I still can't find a solution. medicine."
"How can I blame you?" Helian Rongchuan looked into Xuanji's eyes, with a faint smile on his mouth: "You saved this king's life, and this king doesn't know how to repay it, so why blame it? "
Xuanji lowered her eyebrows, pursed her lips and smiled a little, and said a little shyly: "Actually, I thought of a way to repay, just because I'm afraid His Highness will dislike you, so I won't agree."
"Oh?" Helian Rongchuan said: "The Princess Bingxue is smart, how can this king despise you? Let's talk about it."
With a pun, Xuanji's face turned even redder, and she was about to speak when she suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes not far away.
Who will come here in the wilderness?
"Your answer to your father embodies the courage and loyalty to fight for the common people in the world. This is the most important quality that a general should possess. But I am different from you."
Murong Xiu murmured: "Father gave me a slap to teach me a truth, that is, what is the "balance" of a monarch. As a monarch, the most important thing is to guard the country named "Murong".
