The General and His Enemy Your Highness

On New Year's Eve, there was a court meeting. In the old days, the great Chu army was strong and strong, and the four directions came to court. The Xixia Rongdi and Nanyi all came to congratulate.Since the defeat of the previous dynasty, the three prefectures of Yin, Wu, and Si, and the Northwest War in the 13th year of Xianzhang, in just two years, the great Chu suffered a disastrous defeat and lost ten prefectures. Even the Yi people in Nanyun did not send people to congratulate them this year. .

As if wearing a mask, he told himself that Da Chu was still the same Da Chu at the beginning, blinded by a single leaf, deliberately not to look at the precarious country.

Chu Hengzhi sits high on the dragon chair, and the vassal kings from all over the country and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty congratulate him in unison. Mei Geng is dressed in cloud and water blue pro-dynasty clothes, and is the only prince with a different surname among the princes. No sharpness, no sharpness.

The crown prince was confined to the East Palace, the empress Lu and the British government had not yet arrived due to illness, and His Royal Highness Huai did not show up for several months after being ill.

Chu Hengzhi was wearing an imperial robe, and his sideburns had turned white. He lingered in the harem all day long, indulging in wine and sex, and looked thin. He said, "Give me a banquet."

The waiter at the side understood and said loudly: "Banquet——"

The dancer is graceful and enchanting, silk and water sleeves are flying, and the sound of silk and bamboo is melodious.

It was only a stick of incense before the banquet, and the guards in the palace hurriedly entered the palace to report that the prince led the troops to force the palace to rebel, and it was already at the Meridian Gate.

In the uproar, Mei Geng squinted his eyes, and felt a line of sight falling on him. He followed the trend and saw King Luo. He stared at each other for a moment, and the palace maid at the palace banquet suddenly pulled out a silver sword, and approached Chu Hengzhi.

"Protect Your Majesty!"

Mei Geng jumped up against the table, and swept out two silver chopsticks, piercing the back of the necks of the two assassins who were rushing towards Chu Hengzhi, causing blood to bloom.

Swords are not allowed at palace banquets, Mei Geng touched the table with his toes, flew up, stepped on the assassin's hair, then dropped his wrists, twisted his ankles fiercely, smashed the bones and seized the blade, and stabbed his throat right with his backhand In the blink of an eye, he was already in front of Chu Heng, looking indifferently at the chaotic courtiers below, a few extremely thick and sharp steel needles slipped from his sleeves, flung his sleeves and flew out, and the courtiers who were fleeing in a hurry fell silently.

The target of the assassin was obviously Chu Hengzhi, and he was considered a master, so he did not hurt anyone else. The guards in the palace had already fought with the assassin. It's a headache.

"Your Majesty, retreat to the apse first."

Mei Geng held the sword to protect Chu Hengzhi, the assassins rushed towards him almost in unison, the cold blade swept the sword-holding wrists of the assailants, the long sword fell in response to the scream, and retreated while fighting, the assassins were in front of him. Most of them died in Mei Geng's hands.

Faintly feeling a gloomy gaze sweeping towards him, Mei Geng raised his eyes and glanced over, but he didn't find anyone, but Qin Gui came over with a cold face and said in a low voice: "My lord, what's going on?"

The prince's people have not yet entered the palace, and the assassins at the palace banquet have not received any information.

"Don't worry about it yet." Mei Gengjun's beautiful eyebrows showed a stern look, and suddenly stepped forward to meet the assassin who was chasing him, "Qin Gui, protect Your Majesty."

"Yes!"

The number of assassins is extremely high, one group dies and another group comes again, the courtiers are scattered, and Mei Geng wanders among them, taking the lives of a lot of Luo Wang's party, they are all unclean, corrupt, money-gathering and reckless animals, Hua Shengdian People turned on their backs, and the prince's private soldiers, who had lost more than half, had already entered the Meridian Gate and headed straight for Huasheng Hall.

The prince and prince of the United Kingdom were startled when they saw the Huasheng Palace, which was full of corpses. The gold bricks were stained with blood, the long sword of King Xiping, who looked like a murderous god, was stained with red, and the cloud and water blue court clothes were mottled with blood.

"Mei Geng! If you surrender, I will spare you today!" Chu Yan shouted, with awe-inspiring justice.

Mei Geng sneered, and carelessly pulled a sword flower, "Your Highness, I'm sorry."

Chu Hengzhi, his clan courtiers and others have been escorted to the back hall, while the military generals are guarding the front hall. Lu Baiyan smiled on the skin, "His Royal Highness, if you want to fight, fight, if you don't do it, I'm afraid there will be no chance."

Taiwei Lu has always been merciless with his mouth, and even more merciless with his strikes. Suddenly, a loud shout came from outside the hall: "Capture the traitor!"

It was Feng Chengyu who led the imperial army to come, and the black-armored imperial army poured in like a tide, and surrounded the remnants of the Prince's attack. Down with the traitor!"

The prince was slightly startled, his eyes were about to split open: "Forbidden army?!"

Violence flashed across the British prince's face, and he immediately ordered: "Kill! Kill!"

As the weapons exchanged, the sound of gold and stone was heard endlessly, Feng Chengyu bent his bow and set an arrow, the arrow pierced through the air, piercing the chest of the prince of England, and then rushed into the battle with his sword.

Mei Geng casually threw away the blood-stained sword, smiled indifferently, and the defeat of the private army was certain.

If he had known that there were assassins to assassinate, it would be superfluous. It would be better to annihilate the rebels directly outside the city.

No matter how unbearable Da Chu was, Yong'an deployed strict defenses. After all, Chu Heng was so greedy for life that he wanted to force the palace with the help of the prince's private soldiers.

At noon, the dust settled.

The prince rebelled and forced the palace, most of the courtiers who could have gone home to rest died, the frightened female relatives were sent back, and the adults were directly summoned to the Hall of Supreme Harmony for discussion.

According to the laws of the Great Chu, raising private soldiers is a capital crime of confiscating one's family and destroying one's ancestors, not to mention that the crown prince and the British government did such a thing to force the palace. revisit.

The king of Xiping was rewarded for his meritorious escort, but after leaving the palace, he went straight to Duke Huai's mansion and secretly brought His Highness Duke Huai to the mansion of Xiping.

The last time must be cherished.

As night fell, Mei Geng changed out of his blood-stained court clothes, took a shower and changed his clothes. Chu Ce was standing by the window and waited. Seeing him coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward to look him up and down, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"

Mei Geng laughed, took his hand, and took him to the table to sit down, "What can happen, although there are changes, but it is still in the plan."

"A change?" Chu Ce frowned.

Mei Geng then told about the assassin, and added at the end, "I think it was His Royal Highness Luo's handwriting. He took this opportunity to get rid of the emperor and blame the prince."

Chu Ce nodded, "Indeed."

It just so happened that Steward Liu brought dinner, and the two of them didn't mention this matter again. Chu Ce's body was fine, but his heart knot was hard to solve, and since he and Mei Geng made a candid announcement, he has been getting better day by day.

On New Year's Eve, the bell rang through the sky, and Mei Geng was holding his sweetheart under the eaves to enjoy the snow. The vast and vast mountains and rivers came into his eyes, and when he looked back, the lights were dim.

In the third year after he came back, his previous life was reborn, and the previous life about hatred and killing was annihilated in the memory, and now all that remains is the love in his heart.

He bowed his head and kissed Chu Ce's ear, and said softly: "When I dreamed back at midnight, I had imagined such a scene several times. The years are peaceful, and I hold you in my arms."

Chu Ce smiled faintly, with snow in his eyes, as bright as the moonlight, "Now it has come true, and I will make up for you little by little if I owe you."

Mei Geng's smile faded slightly, he turned the young man to face him, put his hands on his shoulders, looked serious, and paused every word: "Xiao Ce, you don't owe me anything, if you really want to say you owe me , but I owe you more."

While Chu Ce was in a daze, Mei Geng bowed his head and kissed the soft lips, the tip of his tongue swept across the gap between the lips, pried the lips and teeth apart, and kissed deeply, letting each other's breath blend in the cold winter, hugging him tightly in his arms, as if he was exhausted This life is affectionate.

After a long time, he backed away a little, narrowed his eyes to look at the little highness who was panting messily and blushed, and closed his eyes fiercely to hide all the lust in his eyes, but he never relaxed the strength in his hug, and laughed in a hoarse voice: " In this way, you and I are settled, but Xiao Ce, since you said you like me, you are destined to be entangled with me for the rest of your life, and I will never let you go."

He once thought that he would stay with him even if he was imprisoned, then and now.

Even if he owed Chu Ce, he couldn't let him leave.

Love is so paranoid.

Chu Ce responded with a light breath, his downcast eyes glistening, "I won't leave, Mei Geng, I like you."

Who loves whom more deeply?

Who is more inseparable from whom?

It's all the same once you're deep down.

Having experienced time and death, they can't wait to blend into each other's flesh and blood, accompany each other all the time, and be together forever.

Mei Geng paused for a moment, then suddenly pushed him against the pillar in the porch, and couldn't help but kiss him again, no matter how bloody and turbulent it was outside.

Only him at the moment.

-

The Crown Prince and the British government ordered a thorough investigation into the rebellion. Because of the private soldiers, the Ministry of Criminal Justice aggressively found out many officials involved in the case. Most of the weapons and money were deducted from the military pay of the Northwest War. The former soldiers were not fed enough to wear warm, unarmed, and protected the rivers and mountains with their flesh and blood, and eventually died in a foreign land, buried under the yellow sand, and their loyal souls could not return.

There were as many as [-] officials involved in the case. The emperor was furious and ordered the family to be ransacked and the ancestors destroyed, including women, young and old.

The prince was abolished as a commoner and exiled to the frontier.

The queen's intercession failed, and she couldn't afford to fall ill, so she hanged herself in Fengluan Palace on the third day of the first lunar month.

The Lu family in Yong'an completely disappeared.

The reason for the defeat of the Northwest War was thoroughly found out, which was already known by the government and the public, but it has spread to the common people.

As the prince of the current dynasty, but for his own selfishness, he raised private soldiers and withheld military pay and supplies, so that the Northwest was defeated, losing ten states in a row, and tens of thousands of soldiers were buried in Jinwuling. .

Some people recalled that the empty coffin of Mei’s family was buried that day. For several days in a row, the bloody smell of beheading and ransacking the house was lingering. Great righteousness.

When Qin Gui told Mei Geng about this matter, Mei Geng was really stunned for a while, and then he smiled in a low voice, looked at the plain snow and red plums in the courtyard, there were slight invisible ripples in his eyes, and said slowly: "Father and relatives, you should rest in peace."

No matter how decadent and dark the place is, coquettish and beautiful flowers may bloom, sprouting branches, and blooming brightly.

In the nearly broken rivers and mountains, in the precarious Dachu, there is still a glimmer of hope after all.
