The General and His Enemy Your Highness

On the New Year's Eve of the first year of Suihe, the people in the city stayed behind closed doors. The army outside the city had attacked the city for three days.

The resplendent and resplendent imperial palace seemed to be a cage. The emperor sat in front of the dragon case with a calm expression, and the ebony hairpin never left his hand. Someone came from outside the door to report that Concubine Jin was asking to see him.

Chu Ce raised his eyes, and the candlelight was reflected in his clear and cold eyes, "Tell."

Duan Yujin nearly died during childbirth, and her complexion is still extremely bad until now. She hurried into the palace with a gloomy complexion, and said straight to the point: "Your Majesty, have you thought of a countermeasure?"

It refers to fighting outside the city.

Chu Ce lowered his eyes and looked at the girdle. The red plum and jade pendant that he always wore was missing. He didn't answer, but put down the ebony hairpin and opened the brocade box in front of him.

It was the ink jade seal given to him by Duan Yujin that day.

Next to the brocade box was an imperial decree. Chu Ce got up and held the jade seal in one hand and the imperial decree in the other, and handed them together.

"I have ordered Feng Yu'er to be the crown prince. There is a secret passage in the palace leading to the outside of the city. You and Yu'er will leave the palace first with the imperial decree and jade seal. Someone will take care of you. When everything is settled, go find Yongding Hou Yuyi. I will take you back to the palace, do you understand?"

Although the changes in the palace were expected, Duan Yujin and his younger brother were really weak, and Chu Yu almost died when they were born, so it's better to avoid the sharp edge for now.

In a seemingly perfect game, there is no telling whether there will be any mistakes.

No matter how talented a chess player is, he may not win every game well.

Chu Ce made a mistake with Mei Geng, and now he has to leave a way out.

A few days ago, the Marquis of Yongding left angrily in the palace, Duan Yujin stared blankly at the object in the young emperor's hand, did not take it, but gritted his teeth and said: "I can write a book, please help Nanyun."

The young emperor smiled suddenly, shaking his head lightly with the warmth of the spring breeze turning into rain, "It's too late, Mei Geng and I are destined to have no children, and the concubine is willing to make compromises for Nanyun. She is not a person without virtue, and she must be able to teach How Yuer manages the world, you must know that the world is not Chu, but the people, the people are the first, and the concubine will go."

When Duan Yujin was hesitating, he seemed to have made some important decision, and smiled wryly: "I am originally a Nanyun Gu master, and I feed Gu with my body, so giving birth to a child is extremely dangerous, and it has caused Yu'er to be weak and sick. For the dead, if His Majesty really has other means, why not take Yu'er away and save yourself."

Chu Ce laughed softly, raised his chin in an elegant and unattainable manner, and said calmly but loudly: "I am the Son of Heaven."

He forced the thing into Duan Yujin's hands, turned around and went back to get the ebony hairpin, but his tone was nonchalant, "People who are about to die shouldn't just want to die, after all, people who are dead may even come back to life." ,go Go."

He said a few times in a row, but he repeated the phrase "dead people" in his heart.

People who are dead may still be alive.

Duan Yujin finally went back with his things, and Chu Ce faced the candlelight alone until Wuwei came back with a bowl of black soup, and persuaded him, "Your Majesty, the state affairs are heavy, don't hurt yourself."

Chu Ce tilted his head slightly, his eyes were full of gloom, he took the medicine bowl and drank it down in one gulp, no sadness or joy could be seen.

Wuwei sighed secretly in his heart, but couldn't stop feeling distressed.

He naturally knew the origin of the ebony hairpin.

Since the news of King Xiping's death came back, the war was tense and it was difficult to return the body, so an empty coffin was carried into the imperial mausoleum, which was a coffin for two people.

His Majesty never mentioned it again, but he always held the wooden hairpin, probably thinking about others when he saw things.

Wuwei was even worried about whether His Majesty would worry too much and took short-sightedness.

-

It was another morning, and the snow outside the city was soaked in blood. On the city wall, the stern Feng Chengyu looked tired, looking at the enemy camp stationed in the distance, with madness that was determined to burn everything in his eyes.

"General, the Second Young Master is clamoring to see you." The lieutenant next to him is obviously the timid and fearful Fang Ren Duxiao.

Fang Ren's appearance has changed, his eyes are faintly black and blue, but there is wolf-like cruelty in his eyes.

Feng Chengyu was stunned, and suddenly laughed: "I thought he was ignorant since I was a child, but I never expected that today, he has relied on his family background to survive until now."

Fang Ren also smiled, "Second Young Master Feng is really rich."

After a while, the enemy army beat the war drum, Feng Chengyu suppressed his smile, and ordered: "Don't pay attention to him, the Marquis of Yongding will take care of him and prepare for the battle."

"Yes." Fang Ren seemed to have turned into an extremely sharp sword in an instant, and he asked gently: "General, can we hold it?"

Feng Chengyu looked back at Yong'an City, which was once full of springtime and incomparably prosperous. In the city, there was the monarch he was loyal to, his unmarried wife, his naughty younger brother, and countless heroic souls who had returned from the battle.

He suddenly thought of the Northwest War that year, when the 17-year-old King Xiping went to the battlefield, and finally fought with the unarmed soldiers with flesh and blood.

——Now it's his turn, so why not?

"I am a great Chu Erlang, I am not afraid of death in life, and I am willing to die for the country with my own body."

The solemn and loud sound resounded through the city wall.

Yong'an was unable to attack for a long time, and reinforcements from all over the country arrived in a short time. Chu Chang was naturally anxious. He changed his intention of besieging the city two days ago, but concentrated his forces to attack a little bit, which is likely to break the city today.

He spoke righteously and shouted loudly: "The emperor has no way! God has punished you! If you act against the sky, you will be punished by the sky in the future! Why don't you return quickly and open the city gate?"

Feng Chengyu stood on the city wall and went back with a cold sneer: "The flood has subsided, so the lord should not make excuses. We will support the Ming lord, and if the scourge says it, the lord should not worry about himself."

Chu Chang gritted his teeth, and suddenly said: "You will die today! Why should you resist?!"

Feng Chengyu was keenly aware of something, immediately squinted his eyes, turned sideways and said: "Quickly, send someone to the palace to see Your Majesty."

There is endless fighting outside the city, a desperate battle, someone has led people to sneak into the guarded empty palace.

The Son of Heaven, dressed in a black imperial robe, stood on the white jade steps in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, looking down at the fight from a distance, but saw an acquaintance.

The man seemed to be able to kill with ease, and even took the time to give Chu Ce a smile like a spring breeze, but his eyes were extremely contradictory with a cold light like a poisonous snake.

The emperor, who has always been calm, narrowed his eyes slightly.

——Lin Shuyu, the lingering bastard.

While looking at each other, Lin Shuyu pulled forward, smiled and said, "Your Highness, we meet again."

Your Highness.

Mei Geng's friends all call him that.

Speaking from Lin Shuyu's mouth, it only made people feel disgusted.

Chu Ce stared at him quietly for a moment, then smiled brightly, and did not answer, but took out a bamboo tube from his waist, pulled the fuse, and the fireball shot straight into the sky, exploding a gorgeous and magnificent flame in the clear sky.

At the same time, such signals were sent out everywhere in the palace, and beautiful fireworks bloomed in the sky above the entire palace.

The battle situation outside the city was immediately mixed with a black cloud.

Private soldiers dressed in black armor poured in overwhelmingly, and surrounded the siege soldiers and horses. The leader was not wearing armor, but was dressed in white clothes, spotless, holding a sword and shouting: "Kill!"

Feng Chengyu on the city wall was also stunned for a moment, not sure whether it was an enemy or a friend, but when he saw the opponent rushing into the siege army and killing them all, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he ordered loudly: "Open the city gate! Fight!"

The situation immediately changed drastically.

-

In the palace, Chu Ce looked coldly at Lin Shuyu who had a very bad complexion, and said with a sneer, "You really think I'm unprepared?"

The Xiping Prince's Mansion has not saved any money in these years, and they have secretly raised private soldiers outside the city.

The red jade plum blossom pendant is not only a military talisman of the Northwest Army, but also a thing for dispatching private soldiers. He has already handed over the military talisman to Liu Changjue, and the private soldiers have been lying in ambush outside the city for half a month. Impressive, waiting for today's big fish Lin Shuyu.

Lin Dayu was silent for a moment, how could he not know that he was hit by a trick to invite the king into the urn, he looked back at the defeated palace guards, and his smile faded: "So what if you are prepared, after you die, Yong'an will not be me What's in the bag?"

He stepped forward step by step, the sword in his hand was dripping with blood, and landed on the white jade steps.

Chu Ce didn't evade, and bent his eyes happily, "When the gold is withdrawn outside the city, that's when you die. Yong'an will have the regent and prince to take care of it."

Lin Shuyu was taken aback, the prince was afraid that he was just a young boy, where did the regent come from?

His face turned cold, and he paused every word: "Where is the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom?"

Chu Ce smiled but did not answer.

Lin Shuyu laughed sinisterly: "If your majesty refuses to speak, you can cut off a finger, and when the finger is gone, goug your eyes and cut your tongue, how about it?"

Wuwei immediately gritted his teeth and stood in front of Chu Ce.

This situation is quite familiar, Wuwei stood in front of him like this back then, and died in Mei Geng's hands.

"What a great skill."

A loud laugh came from behind him, and the man in black clothes flashed out, his back was tall and straight, and the silver wristband on his wrist was shining brightly. Lin Shuyu, whose complexion changed drastically, smiled sincerely: "If you want to touch your wife, have you asked me?"

Mei Geng knew the location of the secret passage in the palace very well. When he learned that Lin Shuyu was going back to Yong'an, he guessed that the grandson had malicious intentions, so he hurried back to Yong'an under the guise of feigning death. Unexpectedly, as soon as he rushed over, he heard Lin Shuyu's nonsense words about to end The finger of the little daughter-in-law.

very angry.

Very angry.

Mei Geng is a ruthless and ruthless demon king, he just wants to test what Lin Shuyu said to Xiao Ce just now with him.

"King Xiping?" Wuwei, who had been stunned for a while, suddenly exclaimed.

Lin Shuyu was also unbelievable, he moved quickly, but couldn't help but ask, "Why aren't you dead yet?"

Mei Geng: "..."

Unfortunately, he also wanted to ask this question.

Mei Geng raised his sword to block it, and said coldly: "Please worry about it, I'm waiting for you to die."

In a real life-and-death struggle, both of them really fought to the death, fighting for their lives.

For the first time in his two lifetimes, Mei Geng knew how much Lin Shuyu was hiding, and Lin Shuyu knew that the defeat was certain, so he fought without any scruples. He finally gave up his dignity and roared like a beast: "Why? , why!"

It's cold and bitter venom, but I don't know who he is questioning.
