General's Gown

Chapter 37 Long Kiss in the Desert 2

Three days later, King Dongyun became seriously ill and was unable to go to the court to serve as a council member. He specially appointed the prince Helian Tao to supervise the country.For a while, He Liantao held the military and political power in his hands, and his scenery was unparalleled.

Everyone knew that Dongyun was about to change.

The ministers of the DPRK and China talked a lot in private. Those who were in the wrong team complained and hurriedly resigned to save their heads, while those who were in the right team rushed to the Prince's East Palace to show their loyalty.

Now in the entire Dongyun Dynasty, the most leisurely person is probably the ignorant Second Prince Helian Rongchuan.Some veterans in the court despised him, some were puzzled, but most of them hated iron for being weak, and sighed while stroking their gray beards.

Alas, you said that you have such a clever appearance, but you are ignorant and incompetent, causing trouble.After finally marrying the concubine, I hoped to be reassured, but I never thought that I would marry an assassin, and almost risked my own father's life in it.

Although it was rumored that he was successful in rescuing him, he blocked the most deadly knife for King Dongyun.But afterwards, he was not seen serving at King Dongyun's bedside to please him.From the beginning to the end, the prince knelt in front of King Dongyun and took care of him non-stop.

Alas, the only great achievement that can compete with the prince is let him go so easily.Dead wood cannot be carved, it cannot be carved!

Helian Rongchuan seemed to have never heard the old minister's sigh, lightly flicked his horsewhip, and a puff of smoke left the palace and came to the edge of a cliff outside the city.

With a long neigh, the horse stopped less than a foot away from the cliff, stamping its hooves uncomfortably.The cliffs here are steep, and the rocks under the feet are all dark red, as if every stone has been soaked in human blood.

The vultures hovered above their heads, making shrill noises.Standing on the edge of the cliff were three or four executioners of Dongyun dressed in black. Hearing the neighing of the horse, they all turned their heads and half-kneeled in salute.

He Lian Rongchuan walked over unsteadily and looked at the condemned prisoner kneeling on the edge of the cliff with his head covered in a black cloth, and said, "You guys go, I will come in person."

While talking, he stuffed a heavy ingot of gold ingots into the palm of the head executioner without any trace.The leader took it with a shy face, and all the flesh on his face squeezed together with a smile.He also thought that Helian Rongchuan was the number one beauty of Nanyao who was reluctant to part with the beauty of the country, so he saw his little lover for the last time, and hurriedly withdrew.

The black cloth fell, revealing Xuanji's pale face.She has been tortured and has many scars. Even though she is an extremely beautiful person, she is showing a bit of embarrassment at this moment.What's more, less than three inches behind her is the abyss where countless dead bones are buried - Stacked Bone Cliff.

Stack bone cliff, punish sinners.Any special criminals that the Dongyun royal family finds difficult to deal with will be thrown into this valley, which is called "liberation", but in reality they are thrown into this abyss, where is there any chance of survival?Instead, they fattened the vultures in the valley that ate the flesh and blood of dead people.

After all, Xuanji was the daughter of Nanyao's clan, and Dongyun couldn't deal with it clearly, so he ordered her to be thrown off the bone cliff.

Xuanji glanced tremblingly behind her, the last bit of blood on her face faded, but she still said unwillingly: "That's fine. If you're here, then I can be a sensible ghost. Let me ask you, are you When did you discover my plan?"

Helian Rongchuan looked at her, and just smiled faintly: "It started when you rescued me under the cliff in Qixia Village.

Xuanji's eyes widened in disbelief.impossible!Whether it was the time, place or words she found Helian Rongchuan, she had planned and pondered countless times in advance.How could it have been discovered in the first place?

Six years ago, King Dongyun led more than a dozen brothers from the Helian clan to go on a tour in modest clothes, traveling around the world, and once stayed in a valley with beautiful mountains and clear waters for more than half a month.The name of this valley is Beauty Valley, as the name suggests, there are so many beautiful people.However, after the dozen or so clans left, the Beauty Valley was burnt into scorched earth in a fire, and all the beauties were missing.

It was once rumored that the women in the Valley of Beauty were not only beautiful, but also had a strong temperament. Because they refused to become the playthings of those vulgar dandies, they were all burned to death in the valley by the distraught princes and nobles.

However, this is just a legend.The country's power is declining, and the ruler of Nanyao Kingdom, who has always relied on Dongyun's support, has no courage and no intention to argue with the powerful Dongyun Kingdom about the lives of one or two hundred civilian women.

As a survivor of Beauty Valley, Xuanji didn't know how much pain and humiliation she had endured before she walked up to King Dongyun and drew out her sharp blade of revenge.How could it be possible for Helian Rongchuan to see through the opportunity she managed to grasp and the countless plans she had planned day and night?

Helian Rongchuan sighed when he saw the expression of discontent on her face, and gently unbuttoned the front of his clothes, revealing half of his strong chest.Two inches below the right side of his collarbone, there was a purple-black arrow wound that had not completely healed.

"If you don't say that sentence, maybe I will really believe you."

Xuanji was stunned for a moment, not knowing which sentence she said made her miss.

"I remember that after you saved me, you told me that my wounds did not heal for a long time because the person who shot my arrow was extremely vicious. In order to kill me, he even smeared poison on the arrow. But when As soon as you said this, I knew that the person who hindered my recovery must be you."

"why?"

Xuanji asked unwillingly.Indeed, she deliberately delayed Helian Rongchuan's injury, and wanted to sneak into Dongyun Palace and assassinate Dongyun King under the pretext of taking care of his unhealed injury.But every time she added the medicine for delaying wound healing to Helian Rongchuan, she was extremely cautious and measured. Apart from herself, even the closest maid never knew that she was secretly administering the medicine.

How could Helian Rongchuan find out in the first place?

"Because you don't understand that the person who shot me with an arrow was actually saving me."

Helian Rongchuan's eyes suddenly softened, and he took out a small brocade bag from his skirt, and when he emptied it, there was a small silver arrowhead inside.That day, Helian Rongchuan was injured by this arrow and fell into the valley.

"Since he was saving me, why would he choose a poisoned arrow?"

Xuanji's eyes froze: "Why do you still keep this thing?"

"To you, it's just a cold arrow. But to me, it's the most precious thing in the world. Why not keep it?"

The corner of Helian Rongchuan's mouth curled into a smile.Why did the sharp silver arrow lose its power when held in the hands of Yan Changqing, the number one shooter of the Great Yan Kingdom, and only shot obliquely half an inch above his chest?Helian Rongchuan's fingers gently caressed the cold arrowhead, as if stroking the face of a lover, the corners of his eyes and brows were full of nostalgia and tenderness that Xuanji had never seen before.

For some reason, seeing him showing such an expression, Xuanji suddenly felt a sourness in her heart that she had never felt before: "It turns out that Your Highness already has someone he likes, and Xuanji is proud of being Nanyao's number one beauty. There are countless men who want to marry her." I bow down under the skirt, but I don't want to be in His Highness's heart, and I can't compare."

Facing Helian Rongchuan's handsome side face, Xuanji's heart, which had been death-defying, suddenly felt a bit of remembrance and reluctance:

"It's a pity that Xuanji will never have the chance to see who is the person His Highness puts on his heart."

Then he closed his eyes and walked towards the edge of the cliff step by step.

Just jump down and it's all over.

No matter how unwilling, no matter how regretful, it will be over.

With two chirping sounds, the rope snapped, and the tied arms suddenly loosened. Xuanji opened her eyes in disbelief, and looked back at Helian Rongchuan, with a trembling voice: "You—?"

Helian Rongchuan put the reins of the horse into Xuanji's hands, and said, "Let's go."

Xuanji tremblingly climbed onto the horse's back, and suddenly came back from the gate of hell, she was at a loss for a while.

"Walk twenty miles to the west, and there is a long pavilion where your subordinates are waiting for you." Helian Rongchuan said with a faint smile: "In the final analysis, we, Dongyun, are sorry for you and your clansmen. If there is a chance in the future, Let me make it up to you."

Xuanji stared at Helian Rongchuan's face, as if she knew the man in front of her for the first time, and scrutinized her for a long time.After a while, she closed her eyes in pain, and when she opened them again, her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, filled with hatred, unwillingness, and nostalgia.

Without further words, Xuanji swung the whip and galloped away.

Helian Rongchuan turned around and looked at the prince Heliantao who appeared behind him at unknown time, wearing a gorgeous golden silk auspicious cloud robe with a white background, fluttering against the strong wind of the cliff.It has only been a few days since he took over the power of supervising the country, and Heliantao's gray-brown eyes have shown a look that is completely different from the gentle and humble look in the past.

"You just let her go and let her go?" Heliantao said.

"Xuanji is just the knife you and I borrowed to kill people." Helian Rongchuan raised his eyebrows disapprovingly:

"Since the goal has been achieved, why care about the whereabouts of the knife?"

"By virtue of Xuanji's assassination plan, His Royal Highness finally obtained the military and political power he dreamed of, and the day of his enthronement will not be long. And I also avenged my mother. This is the best of both worlds, isn't it?"

"I always feel that I can't see through you more and more." Heliantao paused and spoke slowly.

Helian Tao watched Helian Rongchuan step by step into the Dongyun Palace, and grow into a seemingly unrestrained, but actually ruthless little wolf cub step by step.He and this younger brother have the same deep thoughts, and they have different plans for King Dongyun, so they hit it off immediately.But recently, whether it was the previous plan to rob the Jiaolu River, or this time taking advantage of Xuanji's assassination to make King Dongyun hand over military and political power in advance, the cooperation between Helian Rongchuan and him is no longer as close as before. .Helian Rongchuan always has various reasons to do things that make Heliantao either puzzled or suspicious.For example, desperately trying to save the life of General Yan, for example, blocking Xuanji's fatal knife for King Dongyun in the main hall.

What the hell is wrong with him?

Helian Rongchuan interrupted Heliantao's contemplation, and said: "I remember you promised me that after taking power, you will fulfill my two wishes."

"The surviving people in Qixia Village, I have secretly sent people to make arrangements, and all the dead have been buried safely." Heliantao said: "This is your first wish granted. Then, now you have to think about your second wish." gone?"

"Yes."

He Lianrongchuan was a little relieved when he heard about the arrangement of Qixia Village.He looked at the distant sky in the south, and a trace of worry and faint expectation flashed in his long, amber-like crystal clear eyes.

"Have you ever heard, the crown prince, that the southern border of Yan State was suddenly hit by an earthquake and invaded by Bei Rong, and the people are in dire straits?"

Helian Tao nodded, somewhat puzzled by Helian Rongchuan's intentions.

"I ask the prince to give me enough manpower and food to go to Monan to relieve the disaster."

He Liantao thought he heard it wrong, so he couldn't help laughing: "Are you joking?" Before he finished speaking, he couldn't help being stunned when he saw Helian Rongchuan's serious expression.

The sky is vast, and an eagle is fearlessly traveling and soaring through the dark and gloomy clouds in the south.

How can I get the eagle soaring above the sky?Not to break his wings, nor to hide him in a delicate cage.

Helian Rongchuan stretched out his hand, and gently traced the vigorous outline of the eagle with wings spread across the clouds, with an extremely firm tone.

"At this moment, he must need me."
