Who is the world

Chapter 20: The Misfortune of Murder

The sky was twilight, and the moment the dawn light shone into the house, the oil lamp on the table flickered a few times and then went out with a "snap".

Several figures in the room occupied their respective corners, and no one spoke, as if they had been silent all night.

Chu Yi seemed to be sitting at the first place idly, tapping his knuckles on the table lightly and regularly, closing his eyes slightly, with a flat expression, not knowing what to think.

"Your Highness, the time has come."

One night had passed, he hadn't slept all night, but he didn't take any action, just sat quietly, as if he was waiting for something.

"What do you think?" Shen Yuxiao finally asked out loud.

Chu Yi didn't raise his eyes, nor did he answer, but just reached out and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Your Highness—" Feng Zhihen frowned slightly, but stopped talking.

"Say, what should I do?" Chu Yi finally spoke, unconsciously stroking the rim of the teacup with his fingertips.

If there is no return, it means that the person has never let go.

As he thought about it, his expression couldn't help but become lighter.This indifference makes people unable to guess what is in his heart.

"Although the king of Jing is not a dragon in the pool, he is a rare talent, but the time has not yet come, and it is not appropriate to fight for the front and disobey the king's order..." Feng Zhihen hesitated for a while, but still said so, "Please think twice, Your Highness. "

Chu Yi looked pensive, neither happy nor angry, and remained silent.

He raised his hand to pick up the teacup to drink, but unexpectedly, some tea spilled and splashed on his fingers. He looked down and saw that the cup of tea that overflowed a little was still full, and the surface of the tea was still rippling.

Pour too full...

Shen Yuxiao had a panoramic view of the scene, and the corners of her mouth could not help but straightened slightly, but she did not speak.

"Why is Ting Xuan silent? Let me tell you what you think." Chu Yi put down the teacup, took out a silk scarf and wiped his fingers gracefully.

"The eldest prince tried his best to facilitate this matter, but I think the king also has this intention. Otherwise, he would not easily send Prince Jing to prison." Ye Tingxuan pondered for a while, "Let's not care about the ulterior motives of the eldest prince's actions, just look at the king's intentions. What's more, the second time to raise troops against Chaoyang, and the loss in the previous battle, I am afraid that he will not be able to tolerate Prince Yi. What's more, although King Jing's character is admirable, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not have a different heart... Your Highness needs to be cautious this time."

"Ting Xuan also means to give up?"

Ye Tingxuan didn't give a clear answer, but just slightly bent his body, his attitude seemed self-evident.

Chu Yi raised his eyes and looked out of the window. The sky was still full of chaos when it was about to dawn.

As time went by, no matter how calm he looked, his demeanor became slightly unsteady.The overflowing tea had revealed his inner instability.

If one wants to keep King Jing, one must face the eldest prince head-on, and there will be more than one or two forces drawn from it, and it is inevitable that no one will reap the benefits.

In the struggle for power, the one that hides the deepest will always be the final winner.

Who doesn't understand the truth of losing a car to keep handsome?But that person is not a car...

"Dare to ask, what are you waiting for, Your Highness?" Ye Tingxuan asked after careful consideration.

Chu Yi has not said anything yet, someone has come to report.

"Your Highness, there is news that King Jing was tortured all night. Everything is exactly as His Highness expected. The Eldest Prince petitioned for punishment. He actually came here for selfishness, but he left angrily at Zishi and never returned. Not long ago, Prison officers have started a new round of torture."

Chu Yi smiled slightly, but before he could show his smile, he lowered his eyes and sighed again, and finally moved.

He stood up and shook his clothes: "King Jing is in prison three times, it is really a fate, it must be said that he has a deep relationship with the prison!"

The slightly teasing tone could not resolve the dull atmosphere, but in the unpredictable demeanor, it seemed that some kind of decision had been made.

After he finished speaking softly, he resolutely turned around and wanted to leave.

"What do you want to do?" Shen Yuxiao stood in front of him with a flash.

"Why ask?"

"You have thought it through!"

Chu Yi twitched the corners of his lips, didn't say much, just walked around him and headed for the door.

"Chu Yi!" "Your Highness!"

The person in front didn't stop walking, without turning his head, he went straight out the door and disappeared in the courtyard in a blink of an eye.

Ye Tingxuan didn't say a word, he was thoughtful.

He saw everything just now, and what His Highness has been waiting for all this time, it turned out to be such a message!It's not that there is no decision, but a decision has already been made, what is missing is only the way of that person, and then there is the way of His Highness.

If King Jing really complied with the request of the eldest prince, then His Highness will surely destroy it as he said at the beginning.

I'm afraid yesterday's referral was also a round.

Sure enough, Yi had only surrendered to that person...

All kinds of things, but they are all calculations, even this time...

So, that person, would he not know these things?What will happen to them in the future?

"I'm going to check on the situation, please go ahead." Ye Tingxuan couldn't help but frowned, and after leaving the crowd, he summoned Lian En and Suo Wangpin, ordered a few words in a low voice, and then chased after Chu Yi. .

In the majestic palace, Chu Yi, who arrived non-stop, asked for an audience, but King Tianpei avoided him. He pulled the corners of his lips coldly, and knelt down on the invitation card, saying that he would not be able to kneel if he did not let him go.

The servant hurried into the palace to report, King Tianpei frowned.

Hearing the words, the eldest prince at the side watched his expression secretly, thinking of countermeasures.People in prison must not be released!

"Is he still refusing to tell?"

"Report to my father, that King Jing is really tough, no matter how severe the torture is, he never utters a single word."

"Oh?"

"Father, this person killed my Tianpei soldier. He cannot be tolerated, let alone lightly! The sixth younger brother was deceived and treated him as a guest of honor. This time he is messing around again, completely ignoring this person's ulterior motives!"

King Tianpei looked at the direction of the palace gate: "What is the king's intention?"

"My son begged my father to hand over the people in prison to my son's full authority!"

King Tian Pei pondered for a while: "Sure."

"Thank you, father. My son will let him speak soon."

"Save him for now. Step back."

"My son complies with the order. My son resigns."

The eldest prince hesitated, but finally stepped back and left.

When he got outside the hall, he saw a man kneeling upright on the snow, he twitched his lips, and walked slowly over with his hands behind his back: "It's just a first-order prisoner, so why do you need it, sixth?"

Chu Yi didn't look sideways, and looked straight at the entrance of the main hall, ignoring the other party's provocation.

The eldest prince didn't take it seriously, he chuckled lightly, and went down the steps to the dungeon.

Regardless of the situation at that time, whether King Jing saw it or not, since he was already in the way, he was the target of eradication, not to mention if he was let go, it would undoubtedly make the sixth child even more powerful.

While thinking about it, the eldest prince had already stepped into the prison door, glanced at the blood-soaked but unmoved man, and he couldn't help but praise his courage from the bottom of his heart, but it's a pity that he still had to die.

In the passage of time, the golden crow sinks twice, and it is the time when the moon rises above the treetops.

For two days and one night, Xu Zixu never let go in the face of the torture, and Chu Yi never wavered when he knelt on the snow.

"... Until now, are you still unwilling to confess the fact that the sixth prince conspired against you?"

Xu Zixu smiled, what the other party said was so serious that he almost believed it when he was delirious.

"Xu's surname!" No response was received, the eldest prince's expression darkened, and he shouted sharply.

After such a long time, he found nothing. He couldn't hide his agitation. He paced back and forth a few times, then stood in front of the execution rack, leaned slightly, and then softened his tone, and comforted him: "This hall also appreciates King Jing. You are proud, but people don’t kill the world for themselves, don’t they? What the sixth younger brother did to King Jing was not open and aboveboard, so doesn’t the prince want to retaliate? There is a great opportunity in front of us!”

Xu Zixu just laughed lightly when he heard the words, accidentally pulled the wound, frowned slightly, and slightly restrained his smile, still calm and calm.

"I heard that the prince has a young son who is cute, cute, smart and sensible. Could it be that King Jing doesn't want to reunite with his son? As long as you are willing to accuse the sixth prince of treason, King Jing can retire from now on and go find the younger son and share the family relationship. Wouldn't it be beautiful? "

"What? Didn't King Tianpei ask the eldest prince to ask Xu about the situation of Chaoyang's troops? Why does the eldest prince keep targeting your own sixth brother?" Two days and two nights of torture made him look tired and his voice trembled. Hoarse, embarrassed and dirty, but still calm and composed.

"You—" The eldest prince looked violent for a moment, stood up straight, flicked his sleeves, and issued an ultimatum in a cold voice, "Xu Zixu, don't toast or eat fine wine! This hall gives you the last chance, don't give up easily Now, if you want to regret it again, you will—”

"Let the eldest prince accompany Xu here for two whole days and one night, Xu is really flattered and very sorry!"

The eldest prince had already been irritated by the other party countless times. With a sneer, he suddenly pulled out the dagger at his waist, and slowly moved it closer to his face, gesticulating lightly, with cruel eyes in his eyes: "The world praises Prince Jing for being gentle, elegant, refined and handsome. Suddenly curious, without this face, King Jing would still have such a pure and refined demeanor..."

Xu Zixu remained expressionless, with a calm and calm smile on the corner of his mouth.

The eldest prince also smiled softly, and his subordinates did not hesitate to force, a bloodstain stretched along the profile of his face, and he turned his wrist——

"Report to Your Highness, the imperial decree calls for an audience urgently."

"Huh?" The eldest prince paused slightly.

"The king said that His Royal Highness wants to see him immediately, and there is no delay." The person who informed him lowered his head and replied cautiously.

The eldest prince snorted, retracted his hand, looked at his head, which had no external support, drooping and slightly tilted to one side, he smiled, and stepped out of the cell.

Xu Zixu's face was pale, blood flowed continuously from the broken skin on the side of his face, slid into the side of his neck, and then went all the way down along the collarbone, merging with the blood all over his body, and slowly dripping to the ground.

With the departure of the eldest prince, he fell into a coma again.

In the main hall, King Tianpei stood in front of the window, his eyes fell on the six sons who couldn't kneel for a long time outside.

When the eldest prince came in, he saw this scene, and couldn't help but move slightly in his heart. He stepped forward respectfully and bowed, and spoke first after considering: "I have tried my best, but I still haven't responded. It seems that I can't ask anything... lest The night is long and there are many dreams, I implore my father to declare the decree to execute the Chaoyang prisoner first, so that there will be no future troubles!"

King Tianpei remained silent, his eyes never leaving that stubborn figure.

In the afternoon, snowflakes fell in the sky again, and a little black in a silver-white world seemed particularly eye-catching.

That child, who has been proud since he was a child, has never been humbled to anyone, even to his father, he is only polite, he has never asked for anything, and this time he is willing to suffer this crime for a mere prisoner!

King Tianpei sighed in his heart, even though he had something to ask for this time, the appearance of kneeling on the ground still showed his usual arrogance, and the wind and snow seemed to be out of his sight.Over the past two days and one night, my back has been straight, without bending a single centimeter.It's exactly the same as his mother...

Thinking of this, I can't help feeling a little sad.

"Father, don't worry. The sixth younger brother possesses unique skills. How can he stand up to him in just a few days? But this Chaoyang prisoner must not be kept! Father, please make a decisive decision!"

"If you are not of my race, your heart must be different! The sixth brother is confused, and the father can't let it go, causing disasters for the people of our country! If he really releases people at the request of the sixth brother, how can he explain to the subjects who died on the battlefield?" The eldest prince saw that the king had never made a statement, so he couldn't help being anxious, and took a step forward to speak again.

"Let's discuss this matter again. Wang'er has worked hard, let's go to rest." King Tian Pei finally spoke, but he dismissed the eldest prince's suggestion immediately, and turned away from the window.

"Father—"

"Ok?"

The eldest prince was still waiting to persuade, but unexpectedly King Tianpei's majestic eyes swept over him, his heart trembled, and he couldn't bow down to retreat.

Although King Tianpei refuted the eldest prince's intention, he did not go along with Chu Yi's intention. He only ordered the prisoner to be strictly guarded, and he did not impose any more punishments, but he also refused to release him for a long time.

The eldest prince came out of the hall, glanced at the person kneeling quietly on the ground from a distance, his eyes flashed sharply, he snorted coldly, and walked away.

After a while, a waiter came running over with hot tea several times: "Your Highness, let's drink some water!"

He said a lot of earnest words, but Chu Yi was indifferent and didn't move his hands.

The servant was crying, and now he will be punished by the king again when he goes back.For two days, the Sixth Highness knelt outside, and the king's complexion was not good inside. Whenever the king was unhappy, those who served people would suffer.

"Your Highness... I beg you, my servant! It's fine to have a sip! How can you live without eating or drinking?"

"Since your highness has no appetite, at least let the slaves protect you from the wind and snow." The servant put down the tea bowl helplessly, and unfolded the cloak to put it on for him.

"take away."

The cold voice immediately made the servant froze, undecided, the Sixth Highness must not be offended, but the king's order from inside must not be disobeyed!Wise and mighty king, since you are worried about His Highness the Sixth Highness, why don't you simply agree to the request...

He would be mercilessly reprimanded even if he put on an umbrella and put on a coat, let alone slapped off the snow on his body, and he might be blown away with a palm before it touched his body.

After a long time, Hao Duanduan had almost become a snowman by himself, so it was no wonder that Wang Hui was very anxious.

The waiter here was racking his brains and thinking hard, when Chu Yi, who had been unresponsive, suddenly trembled all over, and looked up towards the sky prison, only to see a skyrocketing fireworks instantly lighting up the night sky.

He stood up awkwardly, his steps swayed slightly, he gritted his teeth to support himself, and hurriedly ran away.
