Shark Tears

Chapter 3

Updated: 2012-07-23

The night was eerily quiet.The breath of death is everywhere, and the prisoners in the prison are also eerily quiet. They are all like puppets whose souls have been hollowed out. They only stare at the busy mice in the corner with their empty eyes, and only they make some slight sounds. , these people seem to be so sluggish, and it makes people feel abnormal when they move!

This is the dungeon where the Cangyun Empire imprisoned serious criminals.

At this time, a man dressed in fine clothes appeared at the entrance of the dungeon. The cold moonlight shone on him, sending a chill down the spine. Fairy means.He glanced at the dungeon with blazing eyes, frowned slightly before walking in.

The long and narrow ladder spirals downwards, and the oil lamps on the walls on both sides are the only light source, barely able to illuminate the winding stairs.The sound of kicking footsteps is out of place in this death-like silence, and it seems that every time it hits people's nerves.

At the exit of the stairs stood two guards with expressionless faces. When they saw the person coming, they quickly bowed their heads and knelt down: "See the emperor."

"Exemption" Yun Qiyu's majestic voice sounded.

One of them got up and led him to the depths.The cells on both sides of the corridor are also imprisoned with all kinds of people, the only thing they have in common is their eyes, which are empty and numb—the walking dead!Yes, none of the prisoners who have entered here have come out alive.When he died, he wrapped it in a broken straw mat and carried it around the back hill outside the palace, then walked more than [-] miles to the wilderness, dug a hole and threw it down, and then filled it with soil.All they have to do now is wait for death.No wonder there is always a gloomy feeling here.

At the end of the corridor is a room that is the nightmare of everyone who has stayed here. All kinds of torture instruments that make the knees weak are hung on the wall, and the sharp blades on the table reflect the cold light, which makes people feel frightened.The guide walked to the table, twisted the base of the oil lamp on the table, and the stone door behind the table slowly opened. Yun Qiyu walked through the stone door with a low body and walked deep.

The sound of the whip whipping echoed in the empty corridor, with full force, one after another, without stopping for a moment.Yun Qiyu quickly walked into the secret room and looked at the child.The hands were tied together and hung high.The clothes were shabby, and blood slowly seeped from the skin, staining the clothes red, and the blood kept seeping, dripping down the clothes to the ground.The whole body is crimson, but there is a kind of enchantment, which is shockingly beautiful.A small face was pale, without any temperature, and the sweaty hair was tightly attached to the face, making the cheeks look even thinner.The half-closed eyes were covered with mist, and he looked at himself with a smile, his eyes were watery and indescribably alluring.It has to be said that he inherited his mother's appearance, even worse, even at this time, he still looks pitiful.

Yun Hanxi opened his eyes dazed by sweat, and vaguely saw the appearance of the person who came. He was the one who caused his family to be executed and treated him like this, but he couldn't help but feel that he wanted to get close to him. She tried her best to draw a slight arc towards him.

Yun Qiyu lost his mind for a while to digest that weak smile just now, doesn't he know who ordered him to be imprisoned here?Or is he trying to piss me off in this way and give him a kick?

Yun Qiyu walked up to Yun Hanxi, stretched out his slender fingers to clasp his chin, and a slight coolness spread from his fingertips: "Is this kind of revenge satisfactory?"

Yun Hanxi didn't speak, but stared at Yun Qiyu with wide eyes, why do people I want to get close to treat me like this? Am I born to be so disgusting?Her delicate eyebrows were furrowed tightly, tears were about to drip from her eyes, and her heart was bleeding from the pain.

"This is the fate of betraying me!" Yun Qiyu completely ignored his tears, still smiling, but there was a haze in his smile.Turning around, walked to sit on the forging-faced recliner behind him, and lightly ordered the shadow guard beside him: "Continue."

The sound of whipping sounded again in the empty secret room.One after another.

Yun Hanxi's small face was pale, big drops of sweat slid down his face, his teeth clenched his lower lip tightly, the lip was bitten, blood slowly flowed into his mouth, his mouth smelled of rust, even so he didn't want to Call out.The small body swayed with the whipping of the whip, like a solitary boat floating helplessly in the ocean.

Yun Qiyu was a little surprised at his stubbornness, looked at the bloody man and sneered, turned around and walked out of the secret room.

Through the long corridor to the door of the dungeon, the door opened a crack, and the sunlight rushed in.There was temporary darkness in front of Yun Qiyu's eyes, as if he felt that the world was so dark when he knew that the woman had betrayed him.But now, her son has been reduced to her own prisoner, and he has been tortured so much, this can be regarded as the solution of the hatred in her heart, why is her heart a little empty?His eyes gradually adapted to the sunlight, he opened them slowly, put away the momentary confusion, and became the majestic, wise, and calm emperor of the past.

In the court hall, everyone looked nervous, but the emperor remained calm.I don't know whether his calmness is a sure sign of victory or a harbinger of anger.This morning, a secret report was sent from the border. Diya Kingdom suddenly mobilized [-] troops at Guiyanguan, an important military town not far from Shanhai Town, on the border with our country, as if to provoke a war.

"What countermeasures can all the loves do?" The emperor still sat lazily, and only raised his eyelids.

"That bastard is about to come to our door. The army of the Cangyun Empire is not a vegetarian. There is no coward in the Cangyun army. I beg..." Before the man with a rough voice could finish speaking, an old voice Then he stepped in, and the man looked at it, and it turned out that it was the old minister Li Xiang, Master Li, and the man shrank his neck and backed away.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this battle can't be won. Our country and Diya are equally powerful. Once this battle starts, both sides will suffer. At that time, Jialuo will reap the benefits of the fisherman!"

"Then Master Li means to give him the territory of our country!" The emperor stared at the veteran with a half-smile.

"Your Majesty, if a man is able to bend and stretch, he will take it back someday."

"Then Master Li, what day will this day be?"

"This……"

The hall was oppressed again, and everyone nodded and lowered their eyebrows.For fear that the emperor's anger would implicate himself.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to ask the Prime Minister how to deal with it!" the rough man suggested just now.

In the Cangyun Empire, only the left minister has always been in power, while the right minister has been hidden in the mountains.It is said that the founding emperor saved the life of an old man many years ago. In order to thank the first emperor for saving his life, he assisted the first emperor to create the Cangyun Empire.But when the country was on the right track, he insisted on retiring, and accepted a closed disciple to teach himself. Since then, each generation of disciples has assisted the contemporary emperor to rule the world. The current right minister Zhang Xuanju once helped the former emperor regain the frontier and made great contributions. .

The emperor sneered for a while: "For such a trivial matter, you have to ask the right minister to take care of it. Isn't it too easy for all the lovers to take the salary?"

Leaving a group of people who didn't dare to show their enthusiasm waved their sleeves away, leaving a sentence: "If the court has not heard a satisfactory plan tomorrow morning, you are all ready to go home and farm!"

The crowd didn't recover for a long time, and it was only when the father-in-law's shrill voice announced that they would retreat from the court that they dispersed in fear.

Yun Qiyu returned to the study, opened the territory map, and pondered carefully.Dia's [-] troops are all elite troops, and now they are dispatching troops from the rear to rescue them. First, the frontier troops may break into the city before the rescue army can reach the enemy. Second, even if the troops are dispatched, they can only mobilize the nearest troops. An enemy sent Qingqi deep into the rear, the rear was in a hurry, and then the joint outflanking loss was even greater.

Of course there are ways, but the loss needs to be minimized.

The most direct and effective way is poisoning. Guiyan Pass was built along the Guiyan River. There are no wells in the city. The water needed comes from the Guiyan River. The upper reaches of the river are heavily guarded. Ya was defeated without a fight.It's just that Guiyanguan will become a dead city, and it will arouse public anger if it hurts many innocent people, which is not conducive to the great cause of reunification in the future.

It seems that the only way to start is with Shanhai Town's offense and defense.Shanhai Town is built in a canyon, and the high mountains on both sides are shrouded in clouds and mist all the year round. The mountains are steep and easy to defend but difficult to attack.Limited by the terrain at the beginning, Shanhai Town was also long and narrow, as were the streets in the city.Thinking of this, a plan suddenly came to mind.

Yun Qiyu thought secretly, it seemed that there was no more feasible and effective way.At this moment, Eunuch Zhou, the manager, came into the room and reported: "Your Majesty, the Shadow Guard of the Heavenly Prison is asking to see you." Yun Qiyu frowned and nodded, seemingly dissatisfied and worried.

The shadow guard came to the room quietly, and quickly knelt down: "I have seen the master."

"Well, what's the matter?"

The shadow guard still lowered his head, and said in an unwavering tone: "Return to Master, that man has been in a coma for a day."

Yun Qiyu leaned back on the chair, and tapped the table with his fingers once and for all: "Hmph, let the imperial physician go to the dungeon for diagnosis and treatment first, and continue after he recovers. I don't want him to die right now, understand?"

"Yes!"

"Go back."

The shadow guard retreated quietly.

Yun Qiyu originally wanted to continue to study the territory map, but now his heart is in a mess, seeing the blood-covered child biting his lower lip, his heart throbs, what does it feel like?heartache?

Yun Qiyu walked around restlessly, resisting the urge to look at him, and hurriedly put his mind back on the map, but stared blankly at the territory map.The man sighed, closed the territory map, wrote a letter to Prime Minister Right, informing him of strategies to defend against foreign enemies, and wanted to ask him if he had a better strategy. Anyway, if you can't calm down and do things, Prime Minister Right will be more responsible.After finishing writing, he caught a pigeon from the cage, tied the letter to the pigeon's leg and let it go.

The man sat at the table and opened a book of memorials, but he still couldn't calm down. His mind was filled with his thin body, pale face and that sweet smile that was so sweet to his heart.Suddenly there was an unspeakable sadness welling up in my heart.

Until the evening, Yun Qiyu was still sitting in the study reviewing the memorial.Suddenly there was a rustling sound from the window.Yun Qiyu got up and went to the window to grab the carrier pigeon, took off the note on his feet and slowly unfolded: Best policy.
