Biganchun
Chapter 25
At the first moment of time, the sun is shining brightly.
Right and wrong, injustice and evil, crime and punishment, will eventually be made clear in this world.
Above the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion, there are two classes lined up, with a bright mirror hanging high, the solemnity is more solemn than usual.
After the trial of the official case, Bao Zheng, the prefect of Kaifeng, and Du Yan, the imperial censor, were divided into left and right seats.In the Song Dynasty, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together, so that the civil servants and celebrities were as brilliant as the Milky Way.Bao and Du are both shining stars in the galaxy.It is extremely rare for two people to judge a case together, which shows that this trial is unusual.
The person sitting in the middle behind Bao and Du is the current emperor Zhao Zhen.He has a slim body, a handsome face, and a calm and tranquil air, quietly hiding under the purple cloak, not revealing half of his emotions and thoughts.
Gongsun Ce walked out and stood outside the lobby, looking up at the sky.The red sun is bright and bright, and it shines on him in the Tsing Yi of the master book.He turned around and said loudly: "The time has come. Ascension!"
The two classes of yamen servants fought and shouted, and their voices came straight out of their chests, swallowing mountains and rivers.
"mighty--"
Shengtang of Kaifeng Mansion, with its grandeur and vastness, is the best in the contemporary era, and it will last through the ages.
Outside the gate of the mansion, the imperial guards are guarding layer upon layer, with strict barriers.This mighty voice, like wings, swept across thousands of households in the streets and alleys, swung over the boats on the Bian River, floated through the many buildings in the palace, and went far away, straight into the sky.
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly to Bao Zheng, and said, "Bao Qing, today's trial will be presided over by you as usual."
Bao Zheng bowed his body and cupped his hands, respectfully said: "I obey the order!"
He turned around and sat upright, with fixed eyes and deep brows, he shouted at the hall: "Lead someone to commit crimes!"
The sound of chains dragging the ground came from far to near. Zhao Jue was wearing a prison uniform and a shackle around his neck. He was escorted by two yamen servants and walked slowly into the lobby.But seeing his haggard cheeks and fluffy temple hair, but his dignified expression is no different from the past.
Since he was born, he has been a nobleman of the Tian family, and he is used to watching battles and endings that focus on the world.Turn your hands into clouds, turn your hands into rain, the winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit.Once you step into this game, there is no way out, and you are doomed to bet and admit defeat.
It's just that if you lose the throne, lose the mountains and rivers, but you can't lose the innate dignity of the king.Zhao Jue stood tall, standing on the lobby, and looked at the three people behind the presiding judge.
Bao Zheng asked in a deep voice: "Is Zhao Jue under the hall?"
Zhao Jue's eyes flashed, he met Bao Zheng's gaze, and said loudly, "That's right, it's the king."
Bao Zheng shouted: "Since you are a criminal, why don't you kneel when you see Yu Jia?"
Zhao Jue smiled faintly, and said: "I am the emperor's uncle, and I see my nephew as an uncle. Why do you kneel? Bao Zheng, there are so many corrupt officials in the world, and the people have been wronged. You, Kaifeng Mansion, don't care about it, but you waste your time On this king, it is serious, to ask for a review... I am really ashamed of the imperial salary, and of your name as Qingtian!"
Bao Zheng raised his thick eyebrows, and was waiting for the yamen servant to force Zhao Jue to kneel down, but he heard Zhao Zhen beside him whisper, "Bao Qing, wait a minute."
Bao Zheng nodded slightly to Zhao Zhen and paused his voice.
Zhao Zhen looked at Zhao Jue from a distance from the judge's case, and seeing him in a distressed state, he felt a sense of relief in his heart.
Could it be that the flesh and blood of the Tian family are doomed to fight and kill each other?Could it be that this emperor's crown is destined to be stained with blood?
He pondered silently, pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Uncle Seventh Emperor... I never thought that I would meet you like this one day... Maybe all these things are really tricks of God... Uncle Seventh Emperor, this is the end of the matter , why do you want to fight the trapped beast again?"
Zhao Jue looked up to the sky with a smile, and said leisurely: "Zhao Zhen, you are wrong. This is not God's will, but this king's plan is calculated, and a hundred secrets are sparse. The Sky Tower was originally forbidden, but it was beaten by three or two. Destiny, messed up this great game... I have no reason to complain that I missed the win, but I will never bow to this little Kaifeng Mansion!"
He took a step forward and fixed his eyes on Zhao Zhen: "The emperor's family has its own way of dealing with the emperor's family. Zhao Zhen, what you have done today is really embarrassing to the Zhao family's officials!"
Seeing that he was so stubborn, Zhao Zhen couldn't help sighing with lowered eyebrows, and said, "Uncle Seven Emperors, if a prince breaks the law, he must be guilty of the same crime as the common people. You are fighting for the emperor and Zuo, and you do not hesitate to lure wolves into the house and poison the people. Only by confessing can you be worthy of the late emperor and your ancestors. The evidence in this section is solid, even if you swear not to plead guilty, it will be in vain.”
Zhao Jue shook his head with a sneer and said, "These high-sounding things are really too boring. Winners and losers have always been the same since ancient times. Zhao Zhen, how do you want to end this king's life? You might as well say it bluntly, so that this king can see that you are in charge How have you grown over the years?"
Zhao Zhen sighed and said to Bao Zheng and Du Yan: "Bao Qing, Du Qing, how to deal with this case is up to you to decide according to the law."
Bao Zheng and Du Yan looked at each other, and said to Zhao Zhen: "Your Majesty, the case of Zhao Jue's treason has been verified. According to the grand and detailed punishment system established by our dynasty, Kaifeng Mansion and Yushitai have now ruled that the main culprit Beheaded, sons over 16 years old will be strangled, wives and concubines and children under fifteen years old will be enslaved, and all family property will be confiscated, and the rest of the accomplices will be exiled for three thousand miles regardless of their nationality. Your Majesty please approve."
After Zhao Zhen heard this, he looked behind the right class in front of the hall.The three guillotines lay quietly in a corner, their sharp lights were sharp and chilly.He glanced lightly at the dragon head, feeling sad.
Seeing this, Du Yan also bowed to Zhao Zhen and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others sentencing according to the law, and all the reasons for reducing or exempting have been checked. But Zhao Jue's crime is so heinous that it cannot be pardoned. Please also approve it."
Zhao Zhen sighed lightly, and suddenly seemed to think of something: "As for the forced capture of Ganzhou and the frame-up of the guard, has it been dealt with together?"
Du Yan and Bao Zheng looked at each other again.Bao Zheng shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the Ganzhou case has not been included in today's trial."
Zhao Zhen frowned lightly: "Have you not verified the plaintiff yet?"
Bao Zheng felt ashamed and replied: "Yes, there is no plaintiff in this case..."
Before the words fell, a cold voice came from outside the lobby: "Master Bao, the plaintiff is here! I have a grievance to sue, do you want to ignore it?"
This voice passed through the hall, it was extremely clear, but it was full of grief and indignation, full of misery, echoed in the hall, and reached the depths of people's hearts.
Everyone was shocked and turned their heads to look out of the lobby.
The lobby of the Kaifeng Mansion faces south, and within a stone's throw of the door is the Yimen Gate.Zhu Hongyi Gate has four beams and eight columns, five purlins and ten rafters, which is more than ten feet high.
At this moment, at the highest point above the Yimen, a slim figure stood on the rafters.Her skirts were fluttering, the sun was shining all over her body, and the long sword in her hand was like snow. Looking from a distance, she looked like a jade tree facing the wind, its brilliance was so dazzling that people dare not look at it.
All I heard was shouts and shouts from outside the mansion gate, and the sound of horses neighing and knives.In an instant, the imperial guards who were originally guarding the door filed in and surrounded the Yimen. Hundreds of bows and crossbows were on the strings, and each one was aimed at the Yimen.
The chain of crossbows is a special skill of the Forbidden Army. Since the formation of the formation in Taizu's reign, it has never missed.As long as there is an order, all arrows will be fired, no matter how powerful the target is, it will be heartbroken in an instant, and there will be no more life.
The space where the foot rests on the rafters of the Yimen is no more than a foot wide, but the person is still flying alone in the air, unmoved, the long sword in the palm trembles slightly, and the jade flower shines, shining between her eyebrows and eyes.
Surrounded by the forbidden army, the gate of ceremony is towering, like a solitary sail on the night sea.She stands against the wind, just like a light cloud on the sail.
Gongsun Ce had already rushed out of the hall. Seeing the situation, he said loudly, "Wait a minute! This is the witness of this case. You are here to testify, not an assassin!"
The bow and crossbow team slowly loosened their bowstrings, but they still tightly surrounded the passages under Yimen, not daring to slack off.
Gongsun Ce looked up at the man, and said in a deep voice: "Miss Qingcheng, Yujia and the two mansions are above the lobby, if you have something to say, you might as well go in and say it."
He hadn't finished speaking when Qingcheng jumped down from the Yimen Gate, with his long sleeves fluttering in the wind, and landed beside Gongsun Ce.
From a closer look, her clothes were already dotted with bright red, and densely splashed with blood.From Tianzhang Pavilion to Kaifeng Mansion, after a series of battles, although she finally got out of trouble, one can imagine the danger along the way.
There was a lot of tension around him, but Qingcheng seemed to turn a blind eye, and just said coldly: "Mr. Gongsun, are you stopping me anymore?"
Last night at the Plum Blossom Hall, she fell for Gongsun Ce's tricks, she was full of resentment and couldn't explain it for a while.
Gongsun Ce sighed softly in his heart, but still said loudly: "There are all kinds of things before, after the trial, I will give the girl an explanation. But at this moment, for the girl, the most urgent thing is to make a statement before the emperor. Please hand over the soldiers Blade, I will follow you to the front hall."
He is a scholar, gentle and gentle, but facing a top expert like Qingcheng, he is still calm and unhurried, without any fear.
Qingcheng was silent for a while, raised his hand and waved lightly, Chunjun fell into the scabbard like a flying rainbow.She handed the sword back to Gongsun Ce, and without looking at the guards around her, she turned and walked into the lobby.
Gongsun Ce embraced Chunjun, followed her into the hall, and replied in a deep voice to the judge: "Witnesses in this case, come to the court to testify."
Qingcheng walked to Zhao Jue's side, glanced at him coldly, turned his eyes, and raised his head to look at the three people behind the judge's case.Her gaze touched Zhao Zhen lightly, and then focused on Bao Zheng's face.
Seeing her suddenly appearing alone, Bao Zheng knew that something would happen to Tianzhang Pavilion.He was worried about Zhan Zhao, and it was inconvenient to ask in the lobby at this moment, so he could only say: "Miss Qingcheng, this is a grand trial before the imperial court, and you must kneel down and worship."
Qingcheng said coldly: "Master Bao, if I bow down, will this grand trial give me justice?"
Bao Zheng shook his head and said: "Miss Qingcheng, this is the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion, everything must be done according to the law, no presumptuous talk is allowed!"
Qingcheng said bitterly: "Yes, in your eyes, everything must be done according to the law. Even if it is a strange injustice, if it is not in accordance with the law, it will become a lie and wanton... It's ridiculous that someone swears so much that he will take his life as the stake." , Said that your Kaifeng mansion can see through the clouds and see the sun, and live up to the blue sky. Looking at it now, it is just a lie!"
Bao Zheng was startled, his thick eyebrows tightened, and he blurted out, "How is Zhan Weiwei?"
Qingcheng sneered and didn't answer.
Her body is cold and strong, and it seems that she is carrying a boundless chill, and her veins are melting, which makes the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion seem to be three points colder than before.
Seeing that Bao Zheng was silent for a while, Du Yan said, "Miss Qingcheng, Kaifeng Mansion and Yushitai have carefully read your confession. If you can prove that you are the daughter of Nian Zongze and Marsay, then The case can be interrogated together in court now. But if there is no evidence, I am afraid we are helpless..."
Qingcheng smiled coldly, and looked directly at Du Yan: "Evidence... the blood on my lapel, the center of my palm, is the evidence! I am standing in this lobby right now, and that is the evidence! I owe this deep hatred and blood debt, and I have done it for 12 years. The suffering you have suffered is evidence! What more evidence do you need? Could it be that you have to go to the Nine Springs to find the dead people in Ganzhou back then, is that the evidence?"
The question was loud and loud, and Du Yan was speechless for a while, but just shook his head.
Zhao Zhen appeared from Qingcheng, without leaving her eyes, turned to Du Yan at this moment and said: "Du Qing, is this really unthinkable?"
Du Yan sighed softly, his eyes flashed suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said to Qingcheng: "It was mentioned in the confession and statement that you combined the two halves of the treasure map into one in Chongxiao Tower. Logically speaking, your Half of the treasure map can only be owned by Ye Luohe's direct descendants. Now this treasure map has been destroyed, but if you can draw a new one according to your memory and use the map to find the treasure, it may prove your identity."
As soon as this remark came out, Zhao Jue laughed aloud in the lobby.
The shackles on his neck firmly locked his head, neck and hands, but they couldn't restrain his wild laughter. Even the chains on his shackles made loud noises, and swept across the hall like a new wind, shaking everyone's hearts.
With a crisp sound of "pa", the gavel in Bao Zheng's palm fell heavily: "In the lobby, no noise or recklessness is allowed!"
Zhao Jue kept laughing, and it took him a long time to stop his voice.
His face was full of sarcasm, and his smile was endless: "This treasure really touches people's hearts...Even Lord Du Yandu is not immune... However, when the treasure is released and the evidence is convincing, the king's bones may have already been turned into It's gray..."
He turned his head and squinted at Qingcheng, and raised his voice: "Girl Qingcheng, up to now, you and I are fighting between trapped beasts. All your hard work has finally come to nothing..."
Qingcheng met his eyes and said slowly: "You are wrong. I am... different from you!"
Going to danger alone is by no means a battle between trapped beasts!
She was standing in the middle of the lobby, but suddenly she slid backwards, and instantly retreated nine feet away.
Nine feet away, it was exactly where Gongsun Ce was standing.He only felt a figure flash in front of him, and the long sword that was tightly held in his arms had already been released!
Pure and pure, just like another self, how could she give it to others?
Qingcheng tipped her toes, and flew towards where Zhao Jue was standing, a green light suddenly appeared in the sky, and with a clang, Chun Jun had come out of her sheath again!
The two yamen guards around Zhao Jue dragged Zhao Jue back with an exclamation, but he felt the cold wind hit his face, and his wrists hurt. At first, he didn't feel any seriousness, but after a while, it seemed to go straight to the marrow of his bone. , groaning repeatedly.
Qingcheng stabbed out with a sword, and easily repelled the two yamen servants. He swung his head back to his sleeves, blood from the tip of the sword scattered everywhere, and a few more red spots appeared on his clothes.
This change is ups and downs, only between breaths.Both Bao Zheng and Du Yanju stood up, stood in front of Zhao Zhen, and said in a deep voice, "Guardian escort!"
The imperial guards rose up and poured into the hall like flowing water, trapping Qingcheng and Zhao Jue in the center, slowly approaching, like a black noose, tightening more and more tightly.
The sword is shining, the crossbow is facing the heart.But the brows and hearts were already filled with hatred and hatred, and they didn't care about anything else.
The commander Gao Huaide in front of the hall hurried in, knelt down before the judge's case and played: "Your Majesty, two adults, just now the commander of Xuande Gate came to report that this is the woman who entered the forbidden Tianzhang Pavilion last night. Chen appeared inside the Xuande Gate, refused to subdue the law, stabbed more than [-] imperial guards, and seriously injured more than ten. Please punish your Majesty and the two adults!"
Zhao Zhen and Du Yan made eye contact, both were extremely surprised.Although Bao Zheng had a premonition, he did not expect the situation to be so out of hand.
Zhao Jue held the shackles on his neck with his hands, looked up to the sky and smiled, and said, "Qingcheng, at this moment, do you still want to take me away from Kaifeng mansion?"
Qingcheng said slowly: "Take you away, maybe I can't do it... But taking your life is still within my palm!"
Zhao Jue's eyes flashed, and his face showed no fear: "It's not difficult for you to kill this king, but you will never be able to get out of this Kaifeng mansion no matter what. You have already caused enough troubles at this moment, and this king doesn't believe that you dare to commit murder. Crime!"
Hearing Zhao Jue's words, Gongsun Ce, who was standing outside the circle, was secretly surprised: Zhao Jue's words were so pressing, it seemed that he wanted to provoke Qingcheng to kill him.
Gongsun Ce was originally a very smart person, after reading the case carefully, he knew [-]% of Zhao Jue's temperament.Falling into the control of Kaifeng Mansion, Zhao Jue knew he would die.He deeply hated Nian Zongze for taking away his true love, so he would never admit to the Ganzhou case and make Nian's family suffer.At this moment, Qingcheng came to disrupt the situation, which was exactly what he wanted.He made provocative words, and he did not hesitate to die under Chun Jun's sword, but also wanted to bury him with Qingcheng.
In this king's life, there has never been anything that he cannot get... If there is something that this king likes, it will definitely fly out of my grasp. Even if this king destroys it, he will never let others get it...
Gongsun Ce frowned tightly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Chun Jun's sword light touched the ground lightly, a little light shone like a star diamond, and it was like a drop of clear tears, sprinkled on the bluestone ground.
Qingcheng's eyes swept across the imperial guards around him, and then returned to Zhao Jue's face.
She slowly lifted Chunjun, the light of the sword was like a green spring, and the chill was bubbling and piercing into the bones.
A faint smile, three parts sad, seven parts comforted, actually seemed to have lifted a heavy burden from his body.
She said slowly: "Even if I can't walk out of the Kaifeng mansion hall today, if I can see you die by my hands, it will be considered that the heavens have not completely betrayed me... Chunjun, you can taste the blood of this enemy, how is it?" How exactly?"
The words are not over, the sword has been released!
This sword never returned, and was as quick as a meteor, drawing a light blue trace in the air, pointing directly at Zhao Jue's brow.
The stars disappear, and the soul chases after the soul.Since then, the long night has been plain, no longer sad.
But at this moment, with a "chi", a dark purple light flew in from outside the hall, which turned out to be another long sword.Although Chun Jun's strike was quick, the sword was moving even faster. Seeing that the tip of Chun Jun's sword had touched Zhao Jue's forehead, he was hit by the "sword" with a ding, and swung away.
Qingcheng's right wrist went numb, and she took two steps back, staring blankly at the sword flying straight up to the ceiling beam of the lobby under the surging power of the sword, and did not fall straight down until all the strength disappeared.
The long sword was still in the air, and a crimson figure swept in from the outside of the hall like the wind. The sleeves of the robe were rolled up, and the scabbard rushed out. With a clang, the long sword was firmly put into the scabbard, and then he jumped forward and fell gently. Between Qingcheng and Zhao Jue.
The corners of the crimson robe hang down lightly, still carrying the meaning of dust.There was deep tiredness in his eyes, but they were still clear and warm like a spring spring.
He looked deeply at Qingcheng, stretched out his hand, and grabbed her sword edge.
"Qingcheng, don't insult Chunjun."
The author has something to say:
Right and wrong, injustice and evil, crime and punishment, will eventually be made clear in this world.
Above the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion, there are two classes lined up, with a bright mirror hanging high, the solemnity is more solemn than usual.
After the trial of the official case, Bao Zheng, the prefect of Kaifeng, and Du Yan, the imperial censor, were divided into left and right seats.In the Song Dynasty, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together, so that the civil servants and celebrities were as brilliant as the Milky Way.Bao and Du are both shining stars in the galaxy.It is extremely rare for two people to judge a case together, which shows that this trial is unusual.

Bao Zheng shook his head and said: "Miss Qingcheng, this is the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion, everything must be done according to the law, no presumptuous talk is allowed!"
Qingcheng said bitterly: "Yes, in your eyes, everything must be done according to the law. Even if it is a strange injustice, if it is not in accordance with the law, it will become a lie and wanton... It's ridiculous that someone swears so much that he will take his life as the stake." , Said that your Kaifeng mansion can see through the clouds and see the sun, and live up to the blue sky. Looking at it now, it is just a lie!"
Bao Zheng was startled, his thick eyebrows tightened, and he blurted out, "How is Zhan Weiwei?"
Qingcheng sneered and didn't answer.
Her body is cold and strong, and it seems that she is carrying a boundless chill, and her veins are melting, which makes the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion seem to be three points colder than before.
Seeing that Bao Zheng was silent for a while, Du Yan said, "Miss Qingcheng, Kaifeng Mansion and Yushitai have carefully read your confession. If you can prove that you are the daughter of Nian Zongze and Marsay, then The case can be interrogated together in court now. But if there is no evidence, I am afraid we are helpless..."
Qingcheng smiled coldly, and looked directly at Du Yan: "Evidence... the blood on my lapel, the center of my palm, is the evidence! I am standing in this lobby right now, and that is the evidence! I owe this deep hatred and blood debt, and I have done it for 12 years. The suffering you have suffered is evidence! What more evidence do you need? Could it be that you have to go to the Nine Springs to find the dead people in Ganzhou back then, is that the evidence?"
The question was loud and loud, and Du Yan was speechless for a while, but just shook his head.
Zhao Zhen appeared from Qingcheng, without leaving her eyes, turned to Du Yan at this moment and said: "Du Qing, is this really unthinkable?"
Du Yan sighed softly, his eyes flashed suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said to Qingcheng: "It was mentioned in the confession and statement that you combined the two halves of the treasure map into one in Chongxiao Tower. Logically speaking, your Half of the treasure map can only be owned by Ye Luohe's direct descendants. Now this treasure map has been destroyed, but if you can draw a new one according to your memory and use the map to find the treasure, it may prove your identity."
As soon as this remark came out, Zhao Jue laughed aloud in the lobby.
The shackles on his neck firmly locked his head, neck and hands, but they couldn't restrain his wild laughter. Even the chains on his shackles made loud noises, and swept across the hall like a new wind, shaking everyone's hearts.
With a crisp sound of "pa", the gavel in Bao Zheng's palm fell heavily: "In the lobby, no noise or recklessness is allowed!"
Zhao Jue kept laughing, and it took him a long time to stop his voice.
His face was full of sarcasm, and his smile was endless: "This treasure really touches people's hearts...Even Lord Du Yandu is not immune... However, when the treasure is released and the evidence is convincing, the king's bones may have already been turned into It's gray..."
He turned his head and squinted at Qingcheng, and raised his voice: "Girl Qingcheng, up to now, you and I are fighting between trapped beasts. All your hard work has finally come to nothing..."
Qingcheng met his eyes and said slowly: "You are wrong. I am... different from you!"
Going to danger alone is by no means a battle between trapped beasts!
She was standing in the middle of the lobby, but suddenly she slid backwards, and instantly retreated nine feet away.
Nine feet away, it was exactly where Gongsun Ce was standing.He only felt a figure flash in front of him, and the long sword that was tightly held in his arms had already been released!
Pure and pure, just like another self, how could she give it to others?
Qingcheng tipped her toes, and flew towards where Zhao Jue was standing, a green light suddenly appeared in the sky, and with a clang, Chun Jun had come out of her sheath again!
The two yamen guards around Zhao Jue dragged Zhao Jue back with an exclamation, but he felt the cold wind hit his face, and his wrists hurt. At first, he didn't feel any seriousness, but after a while, it seemed to go straight to the marrow of his bone. , groaning repeatedly.
Qingcheng stabbed out with a sword, and easily repelled the two yamen servants. He swung his head back to his sleeves, blood from the tip of the sword scattered everywhere, and a few more red spots appeared on his clothes.
This change is ups and downs, only between breaths.Both Bao Zheng and Du Yanju stood up, stood in front of Zhao Zhen, and said in a deep voice, "Guardian escort!"
The imperial guards rose up and poured into the hall like flowing water, trapping Qingcheng and Zhao Jue in the center, slowly approaching, like a black noose, tightening more and more tightly.
The sword is shining, the crossbow is facing the heart.But the brows and hearts were already filled with hatred and hatred, and they didn't care about anything else.
The commander Gao Huaide in front of the hall hurried in, knelt down before the judge's case and played: "Your Majesty, two adults, just now the commander of Xuande Gate came to report that this is the woman who entered the forbidden Tianzhang Pavilion last night. Chen appeared inside the Xuande Gate, refused to subdue the law, stabbed more than [-] imperial guards, and seriously injured more than ten. Please punish your Majesty and the two adults!"
Zhao Zhen and Du Yan made eye contact, both were extremely surprised.Although Bao Zheng had a premonition, he did not expect the situation to be so out of hand.
Zhao Jue held the shackles on his neck with his hands, looked up to the sky and smiled, and said, "Qingcheng, at this moment, do you still want to take me away from Kaifeng mansion?"
Qingcheng said slowly: "Take you away, maybe I can't do it... But taking your life is still within my palm!"
Zhao Jue's eyes flashed, and his face showed no fear: "It's not difficult for you to kill this king, but you will never be able to get out of this Kaifeng mansion no matter what. You have already caused enough troubles at this moment, and this king doesn't believe that you dare to commit murder. Crime!"
Hearing Zhao Jue's words, Gongsun Ce, who was standing outside the circle, was secretly surprised: Zhao Jue's words were so pressing, it seemed that he wanted to provoke Qingcheng to kill him.
Gongsun Ce was originally a very smart person, after reading the case carefully, he knew [-]% of Zhao Jue's temperament.Falling into the control of Kaifeng Mansion, Zhao Jue knew he would die.He deeply hated Nian Zongze for taking away his true love, so he would never admit to the Ganzhou case and make Nian's family suffer.At this moment, Qingcheng came to disrupt the situation, which was exactly what he wanted.He made provocative words, and he did not hesitate to die under Chun Jun's sword, but also wanted to bury him with Qingcheng.
In this king's life, there has never been anything that he cannot get... If there is something that this king likes, it will definitely fly out of my grasp. Even if this king destroys it, he will never let others get it...
Gongsun Ce frowned tightly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Chun Jun's sword light touched the ground lightly, a little light shone like a star diamond, and it was like a drop of clear tears, sprinkled on the bluestone ground.
Qingcheng's eyes swept across the imperial guards around him, and then returned to Zhao Jue's face.
She slowly lifted Chunjun, the light of the sword was like a green spring, and the chill was bubbling and piercing into the bones.
A faint smile, three parts sad, seven parts comforted, actually seemed to have lifted a heavy burden from his body.
She said slowly: "Even if I can't walk out of the Kaifeng mansion hall today, if I can see you die by my hands, it will be considered that the heavens have not completely betrayed me... Chunjun, you can taste the blood of this enemy, how is it?" How exactly?"
The words are not over, the sword has been released!
This sword never returned, and was as quick as a meteor, drawing a light blue trace in the air, pointing directly at Zhao Jue's brow.
The stars disappear, and the soul chases after the soul.Since then, the long night has been plain, no longer sad.
But at this moment, with a "chi", a dark purple light flew in from outside the hall, which turned out to be another long sword.Although Chun Jun's strike was quick, the sword was moving even faster. Seeing that the tip of Chun Jun's sword had touched Zhao Jue's forehead, he was hit by the "sword" with a ding, and swung away.
Qingcheng's right wrist went numb, and she took two steps back, staring blankly at the sword flying straight up to the ceiling beam of the lobby under the surging power of the sword, and did not fall straight down until all the strength disappeared.
The long sword was still in the air, and a crimson figure swept in from the outside of the hall like the wind. The sleeves of the robe were rolled up, and the scabbard rushed out. With a clang, the long sword was firmly put into the scabbard, and then he jumped forward and fell gently. Between Qingcheng and Zhao Jue.
The corners of the crimson robe hang down lightly, still carrying the meaning of dust.There was deep tiredness in his eyes, but they were still clear and warm like a spring spring.
He looked deeply at Qingcheng, stretched out his hand, and grabbed her sword edge.
"Qingcheng, don't insult Chunjun."
