For the emperor

Cang Tiansu walked towards the general's main tent, unhurriedly, stepping on black velvet cloud-topped flower shoes, stomping on the ground silently.

At this moment, he seemed to have thrown off the shackles he had carried for many years, his smile was so bright and dazzling, so beautiful that even the ambiguous orange-red and lavender in the sky lost its color.

A few meters behind him, Duan Yu, whose face was pale and blue, moved forward slowly, his lips parted slightly, unable to speak a word.

Duan De has been the Great General of Zhenbei for more than ten years, with unparalleled prestige and unambiguous words, but he has never enjoyed the treatment that Cang Tiansu is receiving at this time.

Every time the new chief general of the Northwest Army took a step forward, the soldiers standing on both sides retreated silently. Except for the young general Duan who was struggling to death at this time, no one dared to approach him within ten meters.

The eldest prince of the Cang Kingdom never thought that in order to gain military merits, he would go to the battlefield and fight to the death with a machete.He is very clear about how much he has, and when the two armies are at war, the skills he has learned perfunctorily in the past few years can only protect himself, and barely do not hold back others.

In addition to the fact that the Qi people are now eager to eat their own flesh and blood, if they really put on their armor and go into battle, the opponent will definitely ignore others and keep slashing and killing them, so they probably don't want to get off the horse alive.

Cang Tiansu remembered what he had said to Duan Yu, killing people to build power.Since you can't be convincing, you need to be awe-inspiring. If you don't even have awe, then make up for it with double fear.

Jing Tian still has the strength to scream.Before Cang Tiansu's execution, he specially ordered someone to boil old ginseng into thick soup and pour it down bowl by bowl. He paid attention to stop the bleeding in time, and when he vomited halfway, he dragged him to Xingtai. The military doctor swallowed acid water and asserted, The chief guard estimated that he still had a few hours to live.

Of course you have to live.Cang Tiansu lowered his head, the curvature of the corner of his mouth gradually blurred.If it weren't for the situation, he would never have killed Jing Tian so early anyway.

Death is never the scariest thing, but you live well, watching the people you care about being killed one by one, the things you love being destroyed one by one, your dreams being trampled on, your persistence Be ridiculed, your dignity violated.

Cang Tiansu understood that feeling very well.

The past and the past are like a curse, an invisible net that weaves around him, which obviously looks riddled with holes and vulnerable to a single blow, but is so impenetrable, he smashed his head and rubbed his fingers, The skin was scratched, and there was no way to break free from its shackles, so he could only sink to the bottom of the water, without saying a word, and let the tide of memories be submerged one after another.

Cang Tiansu never understood, it has been so long, 450 days, the torrent of time has washed away, why still can't heal the gully in his heart?

Memories are raging and turbulent every sleepless night, how much he wants to forget, but he still misses it, as soon as he closes his eyes, the face that belongs to Li Mi comes back.

When I woke up, I stared at the four sides of the military tent in a daze, opening my eyes wide, trying to find the dilapidated dark blue sky that I was familiar with when I was a child, emerging from the sparse bricks and tiles of the cold palace.

And the bright starlight.

Cang Tiansu has always wanted to return his pain to the person who caused all this, so he is in pain, but still wants to live with his head held high.It's a gnashing of teeth and not giving up.

Since when, even crying has become a luxury.

Cang Tiansu didn't intend to change clothes.

He has no particular preference for clothing, just like eating and drinking.Because Duan Yu once shyly expressed that he prefers to see him in white clothes, so Cang Tian Sucai always wears plain white clothes.

But now, the white clothes were stained with blood, and the blood-colored sleeves shook in the wind, making a slight screeching sound, with a soaring bloody smell and an unusual sense of solemnity, which added a third point of deterrence.

Seeing Cang Tiansu enter the main tent, Duan Yu hesitated for a long time, but in the end he still didn't dare to step in.

He felt that he needed some time to calm down his now overwhelmed stomach, and regretted deeply why he had to sit in the row closest to Xingtai in the first place.

Duan Yu remembered what his father said a long time ago.The young general Zhenbei was riding on the horse, his eyes were slightly squinted, and the old god was there, "The master you choose to follow is a knife. You don't need to take it out of its sheath. The cold already hurts people."

Duan Yu looked at the lowered curtain, then looked back at Xingtai.

With an inexplicable tacit understanding, no one chose to stand between the main account and Xingtai at this time.Duan Yu easily saw the squirming mass lying on top.

With his tongue cut off, Jing Tian, ​​who was already out of shape at this time, couldn't make a normal scream at all, as if someone was strangling his neck, from the gap in his throat, the endless wind was squeezed out, through the vibration of the vocal cords, and finally formed A terrible shrill howl.

It's like the death song of the evil spirits in hell.Just listening to it, one can't help but stand up and sweat.That represented unimaginable extreme pain.

When Duan Yu stopped at the door, Cang Tiansu had already walked in, smiling at the pale Xiaosi.

He ordered all the soldiers to go and watch. He didn't make strict requirements on this little maid who had served him since she was a child, but seeing the situation, the other party consciously went to take a look.

Well, it saves a lot of thought.

He didn't make any comments on Jing Tian's actions. He poured himself a cup of tea and poured it in. From early morning to now, the sun was about to set, because everyone hadn't had enough water to watch the execution.

People are iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry.Cang Tiansu rubbed his chin, feeling that he couldn't be so inhumane, poked his head out from the main tent, and wanted to give orders for dinner.

A dozen generals were standing outside staring blankly, and when Cang Tiansu appeared, it was not easy for Xu Compensation to muster up the courage to say something to change the atmosphere.

He was inhaling, when he suddenly saw the head with a harmless smile on his face, the three souls disappeared and the seven souls disappeared immediately. After retreating more than ten meters, he said cautiously: "What do you want to order?"

"It's time for dinner." Cang Tiansu touched Pingping's belly.

After hearing this, Xu Xi's lips turned blue, and he almost burst into tears. Brother, you are always so neat, there are [-] soldiers in the entire barracks, and there are definitely less than two fingers in the mood to eat now.

Xu Hui looked back at the generals who opened their mouths and didn't know what to say, and knew where their fear came from.At any time, people are in awe of death.

Generals who have experienced many battles may not be afraid of being shot or hacked to death by the enemy on the battlefield, but absolutely no one wants to die like this.

Not to mention the slow death process that lasted several hours, even if it was an instant death without too much pain, many people still want to leave a whole body.

Cut to pieces by a thousand knives... What kind of cruel person must be able to come up with such a punishment?

What's more, the unlucky guy on the stage was the only bodyguard that Cang Tiansu brought from the palace.Many people are very familiar with Jingtian. They drink small wine, eat some side dishes, chat and play together quite a lot on weekdays.

Xu Chen deeply understood that if he had changed himself, even if he had the guts to cut a person alive for more than 3 knives, he would not be able to do so against someone he was a little familiar with.What's more, for Cang Tiansu, Jing Tian has been by his side every day since he was eight years old, and has followed him through half of his 16-year life now.

Xu Companion didn't think he had the courage to do this kind of cruelty to the people in front of him.No matter how many tens of thousands of people he kills, he will still not be able to be this cruel. This is not something that can be cultivated by killing people with machetes on the battlefield, bleeding and wounding.

Xu Comprehension understood that Cang Tiansu's murder this time was partly to punish the collaborating and traitorous bodyguards, and partly to show himself to those who gradually became disobedient after the death of General Duan.

At the same time, Xu Shan had to admit that even though he knew the other party's intentions, he still couldn't help but feel fear, and I believe most of the generals were also like this.

It takes several years of hard work on the battlefield to achieve the effect. Cang Tiansu has already achieved it by killing one person.After this day, the Northwest Army will be in his hands, and no one will dare to play the game of obedience and obedience.

Xu Zhi sighed deeply.

Like a finger?nonsense!

Cang Tiansu, who had successfully regained his military power, had an ugly face at this moment.

Duan Yu stood outside the main tent, looked at the ground, searched carefully for a long time, but couldn't find a place to stay, so he stood there, scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "Susu, are these things okay if you step on them?"

"What do you think?" Cang Tiansu raised his head from the thick paper, and glanced at him angrily, seeing the big man looking back at him with aggrieved look, most of his depression disappeared, and his tone softened unconsciously, " Step on it, and be careful not to confuse the order."

The grievances piled up on Duan Yu's face suddenly disappeared, and he cautiously raised his toes, took small steps, and stepped in sideways. Every step must be carefully considered and calculated, for fear that any stack that is kicked down will be destroyed. a disaster.

It's terrible, this is really piled up like a mountain!

After completing an exaggerated split jump, Major General Duan, who twisted his waist, let out a scream, quickly supported the sides of his hip bones with both hands, swallowed the long wailing that reached his mouth, and forcefully pulled his tendons apart with both hands come over.

"What's going on, it suddenly became like this?" Duan Yu waved his hand with lingering fear to signal the paper books piled up like snowflakes on the ground.

Cang Tiansu put down the pen in his hand, unable to argue with emotion: "General Li is on strike."

In the past, the division of labor in the Northwest Army was very clear. Duan De was in charge of leading the subordinate soldiers, and Li Renqiang and a dozen of his clerks handled the military affairs report.

Duan De's good subordinates deal with most of the unimportant trivial matters directly, and the really important matters will be directly sent to Duan De.Li Renqiang will also check the things his subordinates are dealing with, pick out the ones that his subordinates are not sure about, and let Duan De make up his own mind.

Calculated in this way, as the Great General of Zhenbei, he doesn't actually need to be exhausted every day, sleeping between three and five.But in the past few months, due to Li Renqiang's not very cooperative attitude, Cang Tiansu's workload was still very heavy.Staying up late and working overtime is commonplace.

Not to mention that now, with a wave of his hand, he forcibly ordered a dozen of his subordinates to stop doing anything, and neatly piled all the military affairs directly into the Cangtiansu tent.

The eldest prince of the Cang Kingdom counted several times with his fingers, and finally decided that unless God opened his eyes and increased his day to two hundred hours, otherwise, it would be a fool's dream not to delay the normal progress of military affairs.

Because of the Pingye City incident, General Li still had anger in his heart, and if he didn't let it out and kept it in his heart, it would easily affect the cooperation between the two in the later stage.

But he couldn't rashly ask someone to help him deal with it, not to mention the unreliability of the manpower he recruited temporarily, once he really used new people, it would be even more difficult to be a man with Li Renqiang.

"Forget it, work hard, it's only been a few days, Li Renqiang still has a sense of proportion." Cang Tiansu saw that Duan Yu's expression was not right, and waved his hand in relief, "Let Xiaosi make me a cup of strong tea."

Duan Yu clenched his fists and said in a low voice: "I can go to Uncle Li. Anyway, this is an official business in the army. How can he behave like this?"

Cang Tiansu smiled, but didn't answer.Just because it is an official matter in the army, if I am so impatient, I am afraid it will cause a strong reaction from the other party, but if I bear it quietly, I believe that within a few days, Li Renqiang himself will feel guilty.

He didn't want to get entangled in this topic, so he changed the topic casually: "How is the soldier training?"

"It's okay!" Duan Yu picked up a nearby chair and sat down, "I don't know if it's an illusion, but recently, there are a lot fewer people around each general."

Xu Xi was the most obvious one. In the past, whatever he did, he had to be followed by a long line of relatives. In the past few days, he was always wandering around the army camp by himself.He thought for a long time, but he couldn't find out where the problem was.

When Cang Tiansu heard the words, his expression became more and more pleasant: "Because when Jing Tian was arrested, I hinted to General Xu that every general will be surrounded by my people."

No one wants the coach to know every day how many times he cheated, drank a few glasses of water, scolded his mother a few times, slept with a few women, and went to a latrine a few times.Just thinking about someone who doesn't know who is spying in the dark, no one can feel at ease.Since I couldn't find which one of the followers was the eyeliner, I simply rushed them all.

Duan Yu frowned, moved his face close to Cang Tiansu, and said in a low voice: "Susu, do I have them by my side?"

"No." Cang Tiansu spread his hands, seeing that he didn't seem to believe him, and told the truth with a smile, "The people around these generals have been following them for a few years, how can I have the ability and energy to instigate them?"

Duan Yu scratched his head and thought for a long time, his eyes gradually turned into mosquito-repellent eyes: "Then, how do you know that it was Jing Tian who informed Qi Guo?"

Cang Tiansu thought for a while, and further explained: "Jing Tian is not someone sent by Qi Guo, so he will not inform Qi Guo at all. I just want to move him and find an excuse." The so-called arrangement of people Surveillance was just to sound the alarm for those generals and make them pay attention.

Duan Yu thought about it for a while, and finally realized, he was so excited that he slammed his fist on the table: "I understand, you arranged the group of people who burned the food!"

"...That was the plan." Cang Tiansu frowned, and put his head on the cool paper in distress, "I originally wanted to use some of the people I had placed among the refugees before, but I didn't expect that there would be another People really hooked up with Qi Guo."

Duan Yu looked at him suspiciously for a while, rubbed his forehead and said, "Why is everything so troublesome...then do you know who it is?"

"Understood." Looking at his appearance, Cang Tiansu couldn't help but smile, "It's just that I still have one question that I haven't figured out, so I'll let him go for now."

Duan Yu nodded, his interest in this matter has faded away.He has an instinct, he vaguely understands what kind of person Cang Tiansu prefers in his heart, so he never complains "Susu I am so stupid, am I holding you back".

Duan Yu could tell that when so many people rushed to please Cang Tiansu, they only took a fancy to him, probably because they liked the fact that his brain was not very good.

If he had a smart brain like Uncle Li, then he would never be a stranger to the First Prince of Cang Kingdom.

So when encountering complicated and difficult things, Duan Yu would use his brain to think about why at the beginning, and if he couldn't figure it out, he would ask. Cang Tiansu would be happy to say what he should say, and he should not know what he didn't say.Duan Yu never questioned too much.

Cang Tiansu lowered his head and continued to struggle in the mountain of books, the corner of his mouth raised in a different way than usual.
