Powerful ministers are husbands

Pang Miao didn't step on anything because he was hung from a tree.

Underfoot is an unfathomable cliff.

The only connection between the body and the branch is a treated rope. As time goes by, the rope will break slowly and bit by bit because it cannot bear the weight of the human body, and finally fall straight to the cliff.

Pang Miao glanced at the broken rope and Xue Weikai who was complacent.

"Why?" He finally asked, Xue Weikai was the happiest when he had finished his work, and it was also the easiest time for him to talk, otherwise he would die inexplicably.

"Why..." Xue Weikai repeated, looking at the white mist under the cliff, his eyes became painful and desperate, "Do you know that on my way back to the imperial capital, on the third day after I left Xiaoyu, she Died... The old disease relapsed, and the medicine was useless. If I had been by her side at that time, maybe, maybe there would have been a miracle? No matter how bad it was, I could have sent her on her last journey!"

He fell to his knees, beating the ground with his hands, and stones kept loosening and falling off the cliff.

With a few "cracks", the stones rolled on the cliff, and soon there was no more sound.

Tears melted into the blood on his fist, he didn't seem to feel the pain, he just wanted to use it to vent the resentment and pain in his heart.

"Please mourn." Pang Miao lowered his eyes, "I'm sorry..."

"Sorrow?" Xue Weikai raised his head suddenly, his eyes were bloodthirsty and full of hatred, he gritted his teeth, every word contained infinite hatred, "I can't control it at all! If I don't vent it, I think I will never be happy in this life, and Xiaoyu will not be at peace underground!"

"If, if it wasn't for you..." He pointed at Pang Miao, who was trembling like a dead leaf in the night wind with his trembling fingers, "If you fight back and forth, will the innocent me be involved? I know, you will definitely say , someone else provoked this incident, but why did those people provoke it? Isn't it because of Cao Lv?!

"Everything is rooted in the person surnamed Cao. If it wasn't for him, why would I be escorted back to the imperial capital? Why can't I even see Xiaoyu for the last time? I want to avenge myself and Xiaoyu, and I want the person surnamed Cao to try it too." Taste what it feels like to lose a lover. Then... hey, he also has a prison sentence waiting for him, robbing relief money, he can't easily get rid of the crime."

"You!" Pang Miao was shocked. From Xue Weikai's words, he realized something - Xue Weikai's crazy revenge, the person hiding in the woods for no reason, could it be...

"I want Cao to experience the pain of losing a lover, but even the dead body can't see the pain." Xue Weikai didn't give Pang Miao any chance to interject, "When you go to the underworld and sue the judge, remember that your husband killed you about you."

"The cause is mine. I sent people to find you. It has nothing to do with Cao Lv." Pang Miao shouted. He didn't expect the madman to let him go, but he only hoped to find out more things from Xue Weikai's mouth. "You If you want to hate, just kill me alone, please don't hurt others and commit murder."

"Hehe..." Xue Weikai said contemptuously, "Look, didn't you do this for the sake of clearing up Cao Lv's grievances?"

"So, you will still deal with Cao Lv, right?"

"Yes, I must let him die to vent my hatred!" Xue Weikai said bitterly, he raised his eyes to look at the sky, "little girl, wait here to die slowly, the old man is gone." Said After finishing, he showed a kind smile and waved to Pang Miao.

He will definitely notify Cao Lv, so he must try his best to hold him back. When Cao Lv arrives, the truth of the matter will be revealed!Pang Miao shouted resolutely: "Have you ever thought that once Cao Lv dies, Luo Zaifu's army alone will be difficult to support, and the government will fall into the hands of traitors. At that time, the government and the people will be chaotic, and the common people will be in chaos. Do you hope Do you want to live in the chaos of war in the future? Do you hope that the flames of war will destroy Xiaoyu's tomb and leave her bones in the wilderness, so that the spirit in the sky can't close your eyes?"

"It seems that you love him very much." Xue Weikai sighed proudly, not caring about the future turmoil in his family and country. "You husband and wife are so loving, let's experience the pain of parting from life and death. Little girl, don't worry, I will work hard, as soon as possible Let your husband go down to accompany you."

"The mastermind behind that incident was King Yan." The moonlight was bright and clear, falling on Xue Weikai's ecstatic face, pale and clear, Pang Miao stared at it unblinkingly, not wanting to miss any expression changes , "You must have a way to deal with him, right?"

"It's this old man..." Xue Weikai's face was gloomy, his palms clenched into fists, "If I risk my life, I will let everyone who killed me and Xiaoyu be buried with me!" He strode away without looking back.

Xue Weikai's figure gradually melted into the night, but Cao Lv hadn't come yet.

Pang Miao looked up at the half-broken rein. As the supporting part became smaller, the speed of breaking was faster, and it might not be able to support the moment when Cao Lv came.

The wind at the edge of the cliff was bitter, and the clothes were blown away, the cold penetrated into the bone marrow, and the body was already so cold that I didn't feel it.

Pang Miao was thinking, if the cliff is deep enough and the fall time is long enough, is it possible to write the truth on his clothes with blood?

Xue Weikai thought that he was bound to die, and that he accidentally escaped halfway, so that he would reveal his true colors.

And these are enough to help Cao Lv.

Even if he died, there must be some meaning.

Otherwise, people will only know that Xue Weikai kidnapped and killed General Cao's wife, but they may never know that he actually did more things.

Pang Miao closed his eyes, his breathing gradually became steady, and he imagined what he should do after the rope broke in his mind.

Whether it is feasible or not, you will know if you try your best.

After Pang Miao closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, hurried footsteps sounded in his ears, as if walking from the distant darkness, bringing hope of life.He opened his eyes, and what he saw was Cao Lu's anxious face, and his eyes were involuntarily moist for a moment.

"Don't be afraid, I'll save you." What the cold wind sent was no longer the coldness of helplessness, but the reassuring warmth.

However, saving people is not easy.

This branch is about as thick as an adult's calf, and it sticks out from the edge of the cliff, less than a foot from the ground.Previously, Xue Weikai tied his hands with a rein, then put the whole person on the branch, tied the other end of the rein, then carefully lay down on his stomach, and moved out little by little, almost six feet away from the edge of the cliff. Gently put him down, cut off part of the reins, and finally Xue Weikai retreated to the cliff, and used the ax he had prepared in advance to chop several times on the branch, so he could no longer bear the weight of two people.

No matter how good Cao Lu's lightness kung fu is, the moment he stepped on a branch, both of them would fall into the cliff.

Pang Miao watched as Cao Lv tied a rein to his body, and the accompanying guards dragged the other end of the rein and hurried towards a strong tree.

"The robbery..." He had just opened his mouth, when there was a slight "pop" from above his head, and the surroundings were silent for a moment.

The rope broke completely.

Gale was whistling in his ears, and he watched Cao Lv on the edge of the cliff pulling away from him in astonishment. After a brief blank in his mind, the urgent matter brought him back to his senses, and he shouted loudly with all his strength: " The mastermind is Xue Weikai! It has nothing to do with King Yan..."

The fierce cold wind almost covered his voice, he couldn't die meaninglessly, even if the wind poured into his mouth, the cold was so cold that his internal organs were about to freeze, he still wanted Cao Lu to hear him clearly.

Then, he couldn't shout anymore, because he was too shocked—the person on the edge of the cliff jumped off without hesitation.

The wind blew away the wide sleeves of the clothes, and under the dark blue night sky, like a soaring eagle, it swooped down without hesitation.

The distance was gradually shortening, Cao Lu focused his eyes, and stretched out his hand to Pang Miao.

He kept falling, making everything in front of his eyes dazzled, and it was impossible to distinguish what flashed in front of his eyes, but only one person was clear, and even the worry and urgency in his eyes could be seen clearly. At the last moment, Pang Miao hugged Cao Lv tightly.

The star-studded night sky is getting farther and farther away, including the whole world, but there is still one person in his arms, as if transcending everything.

The fall hadn't stopped yet, the rope snapped too suddenly, and the guards hadn't had time to tie the other end to the branch.

"We won't die." The gentle reassurance sounded in his ears, piercing through all the hustle and bustle.

"The invincible General Cao." Pang Miao laughed.

"I still like it when you call me Ah Lu." Cao Lu sighed, hugging Pang Miao even tighter.

At this moment, at the critical moment of life and death, thousands of words can be reduced to two words, "Ah Lu..."

Cao Lv also laughed, and then a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he grabbed the vines hanging from the cliff with one hand. He was protecting Pang Miao, and his back hit the cliff heavily, swinging Before leaving, he took the opportunity to step on a protruding rock with his toes, so as to temporarily stop the downward trend and hold the vines tighter in an instant.

Just after Cao Lu took a breath, the rock loosened and fell.

The two continued to slide, but they were under the control of Cao Lu's strength.

The palms rubbed against the vines, the green leaves fluttered down, and blood drops fell on Pang Miao's face. Cao Lu didn't even frown, and his attention kept going back and forth between the vines and the bottom of the cliff.

The night has not yet ushered in the dawn, but it seems that after a long time, the sound of the wind finally subsides, replaced by the sound of rushing water.

The vine finally couldn't hold on, Cao Lv was always alert, kicked his feet on the cliff, turned over in mid-air with his strength, landed on the river beach, stepped back again and again, and finally stopped at the point where the water reached his ankles .

It turns out that the cliff is not unfathomable, but there is light smoke curling around all the year round, blocking the line of sight and giving people an illusion.

Pang Miao didn't let go of Cao Lv, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"

"fine."

"Then, that's good..."

The voice gradually decreased, Cao Lv felt the weight in his arms became heavier, and only the faint and inaudible breathing sound remained in his ears.
