dust song

After the butler finished speaking, he leaned over and held the flower pendant in his hand to Murong Chengdu.

Murong Chengdu just glanced at it lightly, then his eyes suddenly darkened, and his gaze became sharp, he gritted his teeth tightly and said fiercely: "Where's that person?"

The powerful aura that suddenly dissipated forced everyone present to be out of breath. The butler was stunned for a moment before he realized who Murong Chengdu was asking. When he came back to his senses, his forehead was already covered with cold sweat, " Back to the prince, the man is being escorted outside the hall by the guards at the moment, the slave will let him come in to answer."

The butler looked trembling, afraid that Murong Cheng would take his anger out on him.

As soon as the words fell, the guards of the palace came in, dragging a man who was so weak that he couldn't even stand up. Just when the housekeeper was reporting in the palace, the man fainted from fright outside. It's been a few times.

Feeling the powerful condescending aura from the high position, even though the man was lying in the center of this huge palace, he couldn't help but have difficulty breathing.

The housekeeper had told him the origin of this thing before, but the man never expected that the flower pendant he pawned was from the Prince Regent's Mansion, and what made him even more unexpected was that the flower pendant belonged to the prince!

In this Heavenly Power Kingdom, no one knows that the regent's methods are brutal, and he can take people's lives with a flick of a finger. Thinking of this, the man's hairs suddenly stood on end, and he thought to himself, I'm afraid it's a bad luck this time.

Murong Cheng narrowed his eyes dangerously, and looked at the trembling man under his feet. His muscles tensed up slightly, and he looked like he would beat him to ashes with his own hands if he told a lie.

"Tell me the truth, where did you get this flower pendant?"

The man's lips twitched for a long time, and his eyeballs frantically "ran around" in the eye sockets. Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of Murong Chengdu's expression. Suddenly, he felt like a prey being stared at by a wild beast. It was chilly and I couldn't move.

The man was terrified, and immediately kowtowed heavily on the ground, begging for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me, my lord, the villain doesn't know anything! This flower pendant is from the river when the villain was chopping firewood outside the city. Picked it up!"

"...Heh..." A sneer came from above his head, and the man's heart seemed to be smashed hard in an instant, "I picked it up? You are so brave, you lowlife, how dare you lie in front of this king? Didn't you steal the flower pendant?"

Hearing this, the man kowtowed repeatedly, crying and shouting eagerly: "My lord, spare me! What the villain said is true! The villain lives in Lijia Village outside the city, and often goes to the wild forest to chop firewood. This flower pendant is the villain's When I was passing by the river that day, I found it on a dead body floating in the river. The villain’s family was poor since he was a child, and it’s only now that he has become obsessed with greed, so the villain really didn’t steal it! Please forgive me, my lord!”

The man did not dare to say that when he took the flower pendant, the "corpse" was actually still alive. He thought that if that person was a male favorite in the palace, the prince would be furious when he found out, and he should not be held accountable. The crime of ignoring death?

Luckily, he thought to himself, anyway, when he threw the man in the thatched hut, his breath was already gone, so he should be dying soon.

Murong Chengdu was speechless for a while, countless thoughts circling in his mind: Is Chu Lichen dead?Died without the slightest nostalgia?Is it because the king accepted the concubine?Or would he rather die than leave this king?

Every thought stimulated Murong Chengdu, sharp and stinging, and it was almost difficult to hide the unavoidable pain in my heart.

With a "bang", the low couch that Murong Chengdu was sitting on was instantly shattered by a powerful internal force, and that face that was cut like a knife was immediately covered with a layer of coldness that made one's scalp tingle, " Was it found on the corpse? Haha, I found out that you didn’t speak a single word of truth! Someone, drag him out! Don’t mess up my palace later!”

After the guards took the order, they dragged the man to the courtyard with ease, and then pressed the man's arms without hesitation, and spread their fingers on the cold brick floor.

Murong Chengdu's face was gloomy, and he walked slowly from the hall with his sword in hand, his unhurried steps seemed to be stepping on the top of his head, the man couldn't help swallowing a few times.

Seeing that the suppressed rage was about to be released, everyone present felt faintly trembling.

I saw Murong Chengdu's big palm calmly grasping the hilt of the sword, and then a cold light flashed unexpectedly, and a severed finger separated in an instant, so fast that the man didn't realize what happened just now.

"I will ask you one last time, where did you get this flower pendant!"

It wasn't until the sound of blood spraying out accompanied by the sound of grinding teeth drifted past his ears that the man suddenly realized that with his fingers connected to his heart, he screamed in shock, "My lord, please spare me! Really! The villain said It's all true!"

"Then you should tell me again, what does the corpse look like?"

When Murong Chengdu sneered, he cut off one of the man's fingers.

The cold sweat had already soaked his back, and the man was almost speechless in pain, "It's... a man, about 20 years old, with white and tender skin... very good-looking. ..”

Murong Chengdu raised his hand and made two sword strikes, the man's hand became bare in a blink of an eye, leaving only a bloody fleshy palm, and then he heard Murong Chengdu gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, yes, what?" ?”

The man was a woodcutter who had never seen the world before, and he had never experienced such a battle. He was already frightened out of his wits and breathed out, "My lord, please spare the villain, the villain really said everything... By the way...the villain will also...take off his coat, but it has been sold to the pawnbroker before...it is a brocade gown embroidered with gold thread...the pattern seems to be bamboo... .”

Isn't that what Chu Lichen was wearing when he left the palace?Shouldn't the little beggar stay honest in the village he arranged?Why did everything suddenly match what this pariah said? Was it the pariah who lied to him, or Di Qing who lied to him!

Murong Chengdu's eyes were stern and contemptuous, as if he still had an expression of disbelief, "Corpse, head, where, where, where?"

"After the villain caught it... put him in an abandoned thatched hut by the river..."

As soon as the words fell, the surroundings were silent for a moment, with a gust of breeze, and occasionally there were a few low chants of birds landing on the branches and flapping their wings. This sound fell to Murong Chengdu's ears, but it seemed like a person was dying. whine.

So that's the case, no wonder it's always safe and sound, no wonder there's not even a little movement from Gu Wenjiang's side, it turns out that the little beggar is long gone...

So the little rabbit who only saw him before is really dead... is it...

The body as strong as a mountain was as stiff as a stone, Murong Chengdu's handsome face was contorted, and finally he roared without warning, raised his sword and chopped off the man's entire arm from his shoulder, hot blood immediately splashed all over the body of the guards on both sides His face was full, and before the man could breathe out the pain, he passed out directly.

"Hahahaha..." Murong Chengdu clenched the sword tightly in his right hand, covered his crazy and distorted handsome face with his left hand, and laughed loudly, his craziness seemed even worse than before.

Murderous intent appeared in the air, and the moment the scarlet bloody peach eyes emerged from between the fingers, everyone present was stunned, "Let Di Qing roll in front of this king immediately!"
