Rebirth of the Merry Warrior

Chapter 68 What is Power

Mo Yu gave the prison boss a full ingot of silver, and after all, the prison boss finally let him in.

Here is the dungeon.It is the place where the prisoners who will be executed soon after being taken into custody.

At this moment, Yan Moran is locked here.Mo Yu felt that his soul was also locked here.

When Mo Yu saw Yan Moran in the deepest cell, for a moment, Mo Yu almost felt that he would not recognize him.During the days when he and Yan Moran met each other, what he saw in his eyes was Bai Zeyan's appearance of dominating the world and dominating everyone. He had never been so embarrassed as he is today.

At this moment, the tattered prison uniform that Yan Moran was wearing was almost colorless, and his body was covered with torture marks printed in the prison, but the cold indifference in his eyes remained unchanged.He raised his head and looked at Mo Yu with misty eyes.For a moment, the two of them seemed to have a lot to say, but their eyes were mellow, and they kept silent.

After a long time, Yan Moran smiled faintly, curled up in the corner, looking a little pitiful.Looking at Mo Yu at this moment, he said, "I never thought that General Mo would come to see me. He really has a heart."

Mo Yu lowered his head slightly, and said, "Anyway, you and I are working together, even if we are frivolous, there is always some affection."

"Love?" Yan Moran sneered lightly. "Unlike General Mo, I am a person who values ​​love and righteousness. Since I was a child, I have never believed in love."

Mo Yu pursed her lips and looked at him with cold eyes.

"People only say that I was born in an official family, and I was born rich and honored. But who knows that Bai Ze's appearance is actually the son of a maid. Since I was a child, my status in the Yan family has been the most unbearable existence. Worse than those lowliest maids and servants." Yan Moran murmured with drooping eyelashes. "Although he is aware of my existence, my father, why does he regard me as his blood. In order to prevent others from knowing this scandal, I was locked up with my mother in the most remote and dilapidated thatched cottage in Yan's mansion since I was a child. Lie. Chained and shackled, like a caged animal.”

"We can't get out, but it doesn't mean that others can't get in. My mother's beauty, and because of this incident, servants and maids often come to bully us. They beat us with whips and burn us with irons. Obviously Such a lowly person made us suffer in every possible way." Yan Moran's eyes were ethereal and cool, and his voice was calm and sad. "That's when I told myself they had to die."

"Later, the eldest lady found out about this matter, but she never killed us as I imagined. Instead, she took my mother and me out and treated each other nicely. The woman still has a bit of kindness. But she didn't want to, because she didn't have a son, and she was afraid that she would not be able to compete with other concubines, so she just wanted to kill my mother and adopt me under her knee as a son."

"Thinking about it now, in the past few days, I seem to have really lived a few days of happiness. For the first time, I knew what it was like to eat without sour food. For the first time, I knew that wearing comfortable and warm clothes on my body was What does it feel like. I always thought that the eldest lady was a good person, so I am grateful to Dade."

"But I was wrong." Yan Moran said softly. "A month later, she poisoned my mother."

"I saw it with my own eyes. My mother was struggling and wrestling on the ground like a worm. Her seven orifices were bleeding and her face was terrifying, but the people around her were just laughing and cursing. No one cared about her at all. I wanted to save her, But I was stopped by the lady, who said she was my mother. I slapped her hard, and the lady became furious, and asked someone to scald me with an old iron, and pour pepper water on the wound as a punishment I."

When Mo Yu heard this, the hairs all over his body were about to stand on end.

Yan Moran still lowered her head, and said softly: "Later, she pretended to love me, and my wounds did not heal after a year of recuperation. But at this moment, a concubine gave birth to a son, and the eldest lady was afraid of fighting her However, they let me read and write day and night. Fortunately, I am smarter, and I can remember any poems and books at a glance. The eldest lady is very pleased, and she is waiting for Chunwei next year to let me take the exam in order to gain fame."

"During the time of Chunwei, the old prime minister in the palace came to invigilate the exam. I saw the way others were in awe of him, and I was really envious. At that time, I knew that power is the best thing in the world. With power, you can become an adult Only when you are a master can you not be bullied or tortured by others. Only when others think highly of you, will they treat you kindly. Only when you are wronged, will someone say a word for you. Otherwise, you will live at the bottom all your life. maggots."

Mo Yu frowned, wanted to say something, opened his lips, but had nothing to say.

"That year I participated in Chunwei, but I was only 12 years old. Even though I was smarter, I couldn't compare to those Confucian scholars who studied hard for ten years. I failed the exam without any accidents. The lady was even more furious and locked me in a cage of poisonous snakes. Together for ten days." Yan Moran said softly. "I was really terrified. Those slippery things were slowly swimming on my body. I didn't dare to move, for fear that if I did, those things would take a bite of them, and I would be finished."

"When the doctor finally gets angry and releases me, I will study harder. Not for anything else, just for power and fame."

"In the second year, the eldest lady became pregnant." Yan Moran said in a cool voice. "Nine months later, he gave birth to a boy, and that's when I knew she didn't need me anymore."

"She has her own son, so why does she need me as a fake? What's more, she doesn't like my intelligence, for fear that I will take away her son's fame in the future. She trapped me in a pig cage and refused to eat , just looking at me to fend for myself. But she didn't know that I ran away secretly."

"I escaped from the Yan Mansion, found a place, and worked as a manual laborer for a whole year. In the coming year, I returned home from Chunwei High School with fine clothes. When they saw me, the faces of the eldest lady and my father turned green, but I was the number one scholar in the new department at the time, and they couldn't do anything to me, so they pretended to be intimate."

"But I thought they were disgusting."

"At the later palace banquet, I bought a guard and set fire to Yan's mansion. Everyone in Yan's mansion was buried in the sea of ​​flames, and there was no one alive." Yan Moran raised his head and suddenly smiled. "Do you know that the eldest lady, until she died, was still holding her own son. She really loves her son."

"After getting rid of Yan's family, I also learned that the eldest lady has a daughter who is a concubine in the harem. I bribed the palace servants and put a voodoo on her, causing her whole body to fester, and she was in so much pain that she had no choice but to kill herself." Yan Moran said. "The source of my suffering is finally gone, but I know that in this world, sooner or later there will be people who disobey me and disrespect me. I work day and night for the government, step by step, and those officials who hate me. In the end, I have power over the world, and no one dares to disobey me! No one dares to disrespect me! That position is really the best thing in the world, but—”

"With it, I still feel like I have nothing."

Yan Moran curled up in a cold corner and said with a sad smile: "General Mo, I heard that. Three days later, I will be executed by Ling Chi. I heard that the process was very cruel and painful. Tell me, I Can you finish the [-] knives before dying?"

Mo Yu lowered his head, feeling a blood choking in his throat, leaving him speechless.

Yan Moran saw that he was silent, and continued: "I'm dead, but you still miss me. It's really, really pitiful to stay in this world alone."

This day, Shen Chengqian read until very late, and at the end, leaning on the desk in a daze, fell asleep soundly.

Seeing that he was fast asleep, Yan Guan took a fleece coat and put it on him.Then, she flicked her cuffs, and a bright silver light flashed, flickering fiercely.

She called Shen Chengqian softly, and Shen Chengqian was fast asleep, so she shouldn't.The corner of Yan Guan's lips smiled slightly, and the silver knife at his fingertips was about to cut the blood on Shen Chengqian's neck.

He raised his hand, but before he dropped the knife, someone grabbed his wrist.

Yan Guan was terrified, and quickly looked behind him, but he didn't know why Long Chenyu was here at the moment.The moment she raised her hand, he quickly stepped out from behind the screen, stopping her assassination.

"How...how could..."

How did they know her killing intent?If they didn't know, how could they have been prepared to take precautions?

Shen Cheng watched Long Chenyu succeed, and slowly stood up.It turned out that he had never fallen asleep and was awake all the time.Seeing Yan Guan, he could not bear it slightly, and said shyly: "Yan Guan, you are indeed from Baize."

Yan Guan looked around at the scene, knowing that there was no way to escape.She frowned slightly and looked at Shen Chengqian, and said, "How did you know that I'm from Bai Ze?"

"Actually, I should have thought of it earlier." Shen Cheng said shallowly. "Everyone in the world says that Baize women are good, beautiful, intelligent, and slim. You have a beautiful face and a full stomach. I have long wondered why a woman like you is a member of a troupe. Later, when you came to my house, you were beautiful and beautiful. You are flattering, tactful and prudent in dealing with people. Moreover, you can make up the four-ring button that only women from Bai Ze can do. All of this makes me have to question your identity."

Yan Guan frowned slightly, with anger in his eyes.

"Later, I thought about why a woman from Bai Ze would sneak into my house. I followed your trail to find out that your target is not me at all, but the current emperor." Shen Cheng said softly . "That day, after the palace banquet, you were the one who assassinated the emperor in the imperial city. I finally understood why the general couldn't find any trace of the assassin fleeing. Because the assassin stayed in the city from beginning to end. And you, it seems I'm not in a hurry to leave either. Because you know that if you kill the empress yourself, there will be a national mourning. The emperor will definitely dismiss the theater troupe, and then you can justifiably escape and go far away."

Yan Guan lightly sneered.

"But you never thought that Bai Ze would be destroyed by Beichen. You happened to be in my house, and you became angry, so you deliberately assassinated me. I have guarded against you for a long time, and you are just throwing yourself into a trap this time."

After Yan Guan heard what he said, he said nothing.After a while, two soldiers came in at the door and escorted Yan Guan to the prison.

Shen Chengqian chased two steps out, but just watched helplessly as the soldiers dragged Yan Guan out.

At this time, the moonlight is cool.

The figure hesitated, turning into frost.
