knife cut mountains and rivers

In the bell tower of Bailu City, the sunset glow spread over the two of them, and they looked at the beautiful clouds side by side.

Zhou Heng said to Fucheng: "With me here, no one will do anything to you."

Fu Cheng replied with a smile: "Then you have to guard it."

Zhou Heng didn't defend, he didn't defend Fucheng and Jinling.Fucheng is gone, he has nothing left.

Zhou Heng was wrong, he shouldn't have brought Fucheng to the capital, King Qi was right, the wolf wouldn't live long in the capital.Rama was right, he couldn't even protect himself, how could he protect Fucheng?

Zhou Heng obviously listened to so many warnings before, but he was too greedy, he wanted too many things.

He killed Jin Ling.

Zhou Heng sat down on the steps slowly. He completely lost his princely demeanor.Zhou Heng once arrogantly thought that he was an exception, but the end that all beauties in the world want is to be indecisive and unable to get things done.

Zhou Heng looked at Chen Houhou's body, she didn't understand until she died, she was so similar to Empress Chen.They were born for the glory of the Chen family, and they will do anything for this purpose.Zhou Heng was originally similar to Empress Chen. What Chen Houhou did should be done by Zhou Heng, but Zhou Heng changed.

There was a small sachet around Chen Huhou's waist, and Zhou Heng had never seen Chen Huhou wearing a sachet after knowing him for so long.Zhou Heng took off the sachet, and what came out was not spices, but tea, the best Huangshan Maofeng.

Zhou Heng didn't understand why Chen Houhou was wearing this, but there were too many things he didn't understand.When a gust of wind blew, the tea leaves in Zhou Heng's palm dissipated with the wind, and a few pieces of tea leaves were blown onto Chen Houhou's cheeks, where they stayed for a while, reflecting Chen Houhou's beautiful eyes.

Zhou Heng faced the corpses all over the place, and the blood froze into lumps. The killing was silent and insignificant compared to the great battle of thousands of troops.But the blood seemed to soak into every corner of the yard, tightly wrapping Zhou Heng.

Dozens of corpses were spread in the courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion. They died in peace, and most of them didn't know why they died.This is the capital, not the rivers and lakes, this is a road to power, the road to pursue power, is the ultimate loneliness, what Li Jianqing said is right, Zhou Heng is no exception.Even if he didn't want to, there were countless hands pushing him forward.Even if he didn't want to, countless people forced him to become cold-blooded and cruel.

The crimes he should have suffered have been buried in the city, and everyone wants him to be innocent, let him ascend the throne properly, and let him bring a peaceful and prosperous world.

Zhou Heng clutched his chest, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, which looked too glaring in the white snow.

The snow was so heavy, Zhou Heng raised his head, the snow was flying like feathers, the world was trying to cover up something.

The prime minister's mansion was in chaos, and when they heard the sound of killing inside, they only saw corpses all over the ground. They had already informed the prime minister who was outside that the right minister, Chen Huaihong, would come soon.

The one who came first was Hu Yikan. When Hu Yikan arrived, he saw Zhou Heng sitting among the dead bodies in a courtyard.Hu Yikan walked past a pile of corpses in fear, and when he saw Chen Houhou in the middle, he gasped.

Anyone can die, but Chen Houhou can't. She is the prime minister's daughter and the future mother of the country.Hu Yikan stood in front of Zhou Heng tremblingly, and called out uncertainly: "Master?"

Zhou Heng didn't answer him, but Hu Yikan couldn't give up asking. He is a qualified adviser, and he should do his own thing well under any circumstances. The situation is of course bad, but he has to find a way for his master.

Hu Yikan asked again: "Did Fucheng do it?" He heard that Fucheng had launched a killing ring, and the National Teacher's Mansion was killed and injured, and he heard that Fucheng left the prime minister's mansion covered in blood.

Zhou Heng looked at Hu Yikan, and it took him a while to realize who he was, and said coldly, "I did it."

Hu Yikan was stunned for a moment, and understood the origin of it. If Fucheng wanted to attack, Zhou Heng would be irresistible even with the entire Habayashi Guard.But Zhou Heng was obviously involved in this matter, he chose Fucheng between Chen Houhou and Fucheng, and it was Habayashi Guard who killed the Xiangfu guards, not Fucheng.

Hu Yikan felt that his crown prince had lost his head. He abandoned his greatest ally, and was going to turn against his uncle?

Hu Yikan said: "Fucheng did it."

Zhou Heng looked at Hu Yikan, and Hu Yikan said firmly: "It can only be done by him. The crown prince led the troops to rescue but it was a step too late. Fucheng had already killed Ms. Chen and fled." In his small courtyard, Chen Houhou avoided the right minister Chen Huaihong at that time. Although he could not hide the truth, at least he could keep Zhou Heng innocent on the surface.

Zhou Heng can't have anything to do with this matter, absolutely not before he ascended the throne, this matter can only be done by Fucheng.

Hu Yikan fell to his knees and said, "Prince, please issue an order to apprehend the criminals and lay down the city."

Zhou Heng looked at Hu Yikan coldly, he was forcing himself to chase and kill Fucheng, he was forcing himself to give the order himself.

Hu Yikan met Zhou Heng's gaze. An emperor should not be provocative. A good emperor should be cold, calm and cold-hearted. Hu Yikan took a deep breath, changed his wording, and said, "Why do you think I follow you? Yes. Because of His Royal Highness King Qi?"

Zhou Heng didn't speak, Hu Yikan continued: "I follow you because you are the only monarch in this troubled world. Look at the world outside. I read the books of sages, and I set my heart for the world and the life of the people. You go out Look at the people outside!"

Hu Yikan looked at Zhou Heng with hatred, and said, "Prince, you can end all this, why don't you go?"

There are already too many sacrifices, the corpse of Chen Houhou, those from Ren Jianyuan and the Shuangdao Society, countless knight-errants who died for the peace of the world, the king of Qi who didn't know whether he was dead or alive, Yan Yan who was boned and skinned... Wang, the minister who was wrongly imprisoned.These people are all waiting for Zhou Heng. They cannot die in vain. Zhou Heng cannot make the slightest mistake. He must sit firmly on the throne to be worthy of this mountain of corpses.

But he didn't want to, he didn't want the world, he came to Kyoto just for revenge.However, this is the end of the matter, whether he thinks about it or not is not important anymore.

Zhou Heng closed his eyes, his voice seemed to have been polished by the sand in the desert, he opened his mouth several times and gave up several times, every word he said was bleeding: "Fucheng assassinated the prime minister's daughter Chen Houhou, and ordered her arrest, Once discovered..."

Zhou Heng couldn't continue. Every syllable was a betrayal of Fucheng and himself. He paused, and after a long time, he slowly uttered the last four words: "Execute on the spot."

After Zhou Heng said this, his whole body seemed to lose all strength. He violated his oath. He said he would protect the city for the rest of his life, but he stabbed him at the last moment.

Zhou Heng stood up, and he walked staggeringly, feeling his powerlessness for the first time.He pushed away Hu Yikan's support, he wanted to go back to the Prince's Mansion, he wanted to get home and curl up slowly, but now there was no Fucheng or Jinling there, what's the point of this home for him?

Hu Yikan said: "What does Your Highness want to do?"

Zhou Heng paused, and said without turning his head: "Revenge."

Fucheng helped Zhou Heng remove the biggest obstacle. Zhou Heng no longer needed the help of the rebel army. There was no one to stop him on his way to the palace. He brought his Habayashi guards and light cavalry into the palace grandiosely.

Now that the situation has been settled, Zhou Heng is not in such a hurry, he can take it easy, but Zhou Heng doesn't want to slow down, he wants to have rights too much, it's the first time he longs for that position so much when he grows up, he doesn't have any rights at all Can't keep it.He is not strong enough, and only when he is strong enough is he qualified to say that he must protect Fucheng.

When Zhou Heng entered the palace, Emperor Yong Le was already awake. He came to his senses and wanted to summon his own imperial guards, but unfortunately half of the imperial guards were severely injured by Fu Cheng, and the other half was controlled by Zhou Heng.

Emperor Yong Le shouted for Jin Yiwei to come, Jin Yiwei was his loyal dog, but he saw Lu Chuanbai behind Zhou Heng.

It wasn't just Lu Chuanbai who stood behind Zhou Heng, he was followed by Jin Yiwei and light cavalry, and they pressed into his own Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The dream came true, but it wasn't so real. Zhou Heng didn't wear the golden armor, and he wasn't in the Golden Luan Hall, but shrank ridiculously in his bedroom, wearing a white undershirt.

The Empress Dowager hadn't left yet, she managed to calm down Emperor Yong Le, and when she turned around, she saw Zhou Heng.Zhou Heng saluted the queen mother, and at that moment the queen mother understood Zhou Heng's intention.

There was his own blood on Zhou Heng's sleeve, and there was still melted blood on his body, but his eyes were so black, as black as an ancient well, and ambition was engraved in his eyes.

Emperor Yong Le shouted: "Come on! Come on!"

Eunuch Liu standing next to Emperor Yong Le should want to protect him, but Eunuch Liu is a eunuch, and eunuchs have never had anything to do with the word loyalty, they are the group of people who judge the situation best.Eunuch Liu nodded towards Zhou Heng. Eunuch Liu is a smart man.He knew clearly that Zhou Heng's blood was in doubt, but at that time he still sent people from Dongchang to Bailu City to help him.Eunuch Liu helped Zhou Heng not out of kindness, but to leave a way out for himself.

Now that this road works, Eunuch Liu stepped back temporarily with his whisk in hand, as if he didn't hear Emperor Yong Le's yelling without dignity.

Zhou Heng looked at Emperor Yong Le, everything started because of him, it's time to end.

Zhou Heng had longed for this day for too long. He thought he would be very happy, but he didn't experience any joy of revenge.On the road to revenge, he has found something more important than revenge.

Zhou Heng said calmly: "Father, you are crazy."

"I'm not crazy!" Emperor Yong Le yelled regardless of his appearance, he was immersed in the matter of Concubine Lou Gui turning into a monster before, but now he is sober, he is not crazy!

Zhou Heng said: "You have sat in this position for too long."

Emperor Yong Le shouted: "You are not my son, you are not the crown prince!"

Zhou Heng glanced at Eunuch Liu, and Eunuch Liu helped Emperor Yong Le up, saying: "Your Majesty is really confused."

Emperor Yong Le didn't care about his image at all, he wanted to break free from Eunuch Liu's hand, but how could he be Eunuch Liu's opponent?Eunuch Liu's hand was tightly welded to his arm like iron, Emperor Yong Le said: "Even you, even you lied to me?"

Eunuch Liu pushed Emperor Yong Le back on the bed, Emperor Yong Le turned his head to face the Empress Dowager again, he asked his mother's opinion like an old child: "Empress Mother, tell them that I am not crazy."

The queen mother felt Zhou Heng's cold gaze. If it was before, she would have been indecisive, but she saw the fate of King Yan.So she chose Zhou Heng between her healthy grandson and son, she gently touched Emperor Yong Le's face, and said softly as if coaxing a child: "Your Majesty is too sad."

Emperor Yong Le retreated, he retracted himself into the corner of the bed, he looked coldly at everyone in the room, they were all lying to him, how could he be crazy?

None of the people from all directions really believed him, and all these people wanted to harm him.

Zhou Heng said expressionlessly: "My minister brought a good doctor here."

Yan Shaokang slowly came out from behind Zhou Heng, Emperor Yongle was stunned, he blinked his eyes, he looked at Yan Shaokang for a long time, and finally remembered who this person was.Yan Shaokang looks too much like the old Patriarch, and they have exactly the same cold temperament.

Emperor Yong Le had calmed down just now, but now he was struck by lightning, and then he suddenly thought clearly, he laughed loudly: "You are all lying to me, you are lying to me so hard."

An emperor's method of death must also conform to his own identity. He should die in the hands of another emperor, so that it will be recorded in the history books as a generation of heroes.But Zhou Heng disdained it, he didn't even want Emperor Yong Le's blood to stain his hands.He handed over the right of revenge to Yan Shaokang, there are many people in this world who hate Emperor Yongle more than him.

Yan Shaokang gave everything for this day, even violating his own principles as a doctor.Yan Shaokang walked towards Emperor Yongle step by step, like a zombie crawling out of a grave.
