knife cut mountains and rivers

Chapter 149 Zhou Heng

Li Xiaoyao died in battle, she was still fighting when she died, and she did not let go of her knife until the last moment of her life.After she died, the barbarians of the North Mang stepped on her body and captured Pingxingguan. There was a generation of heroes alive, and when she died, thousands of people trampled on her.

Li Xiaoyao's death was full of doubts, and Zhou Heng didn't find out what happened for a while.Zhou Heng guessed that something went wrong inside the Zhenbei Army, and Li Xiaoyao was probably plotted against.

After Li Xiaoyao's death, Li Xingkong took Li Jianqing to control the Zhenbei Army. During the Yongle period, the Zhenbei Army had 10 people. After years of wars, Zhou Heng allocated the army's salary to recruit people. Including casualties and new recruits, the Zhenbei Army still has 15 people. .

Zhou Heng raised the Zhenbei Army because the general was Li Xiaoyao, and he knew what Li Xiaoyao was like.When Zhou Heng promised to keep the capital, Li Xiaoyao wanted to keep the frontier.

However, now that the Zhenbei Army fell into Li Xingkong's hands, Zhou Heng was not sure what his attitude was.But he could see Li Xingkong's attitude towards Li Jianqing. Once Li Xiaoyao died, Li Jianqing was imprisoned and became Li Xingkong's plaything.

Zhou Heng pondered for a moment, then sent someone to pick Li Jianqing into the capital.He promised Li Xiaoyao to save Li Jianqing's life if the world was in chaos, and he would do what he said.

Li Jianqing came very quickly. It is said that ten horses were wasted, and it only took eight days to come from Yanmen Pass.

Kun beside Li Jianqing is now only two people left, not even Li Wenxiu.Zhou Heng lost four dead waiters before he was rescued from Li Xingkong's military tent.

Zhou Heng placed Li Jianqing in Qi Wang's mansion, which is the safest place. After the death of Qi Wang, Zhou Jin, the son of Qi Wang lived.Zhou Jin is Zhou Heng's only relative, and the relationship between them is fairly close.

When Zhou Jin saw Zhou Heng, she saluted him. It was a big deal for the young prince to enter the capital, and only a small number of people knew about it.Zhou Heng didn't avoid Zhou Jin, he had nothing to do with this younger brother.There were only three people left here, Zhou Heng, Zhou Jin, and Li Jianqing. Zhou Heng found that Li Jianqing had become a little different.

There are two bruises under Li Jianqing's eyes, probably because he hasn't slept well for a long time.His peach blossom eyes lost their luster. He used to always smile, even when he was injured. Now Li Jianqing is even more depressed than when he knew the death of King Zhenbei.Li Jianqing sat quietly like a broken porcelain doll, which made Zhou Heng feel nothing like him.

Li Jianqing's neck was wrapped with a thick bandage, Zhou Heng thought he was covering up a scar, Fucheng once scratched his neck, and the scar continued all the way to his chest.

But after looking at it for a long time, it was not the same thing. He was really injured, and there were bloodstains on his neck.

Zhou Heng asked: "Did Li Xingkong do it?"

Li Jianqing raised his head and glanced at Zhou Heng, his eyes rolled, showing a sinister smile, "Do you care about me?"

Zhou Heng doesn't care about Li Jianqing, he just needs Li Jianqing to live, even if his leg is broken, it doesn't matter to Zhou Heng.But now Zhou Heng must ask the truth. The person who knows what happened to Zhenbei Army is the little prince in front of him. He asked, "How did Li Xiaoyao die?"

When Li Xiaoyao was mentioned, Li Jianqing's heart twitched, it really hurt.

Zhou Heng asked, "Did Li Xingkong move his hand?"

Li Jianqing didn't speak.

With a crisp sound, Zhou Jin who had been watching was startled, Zhou Heng actually slapped the little prince.

Li Jianqing covered his face and said, "You hit me?"

Zhou Heng held his collar. He lost patience with Li Jianqing and said angrily, "Tell me, who did it!"

Li Jianqing was suddenly pulled up by Zhou Heng. His health has been getting worse and worse in the past two years, and there is almost no room for resistance.How ridiculous, Zhou Heng was cornered by Li Jianqing back then in Bailu City, but now he needs Zhou Heng to save himself.Li Jianqing was only followed by two "kuns", and now Li Jianqing had completely lost the ability to challenge Zhou Heng, because Li Xiaoyao was dead.

Li Jianqing showed a miserable smile to Zhou Heng: "Li Wenxiu."

Zhou Heng was stunned. He originally thought that Li Xingkong seized power and took the opportunity to kill Li Xiaoyao, so that he could successfully take the position of general.Zhou Heng never expected such an answer. The one who killed Li Xiaoyao turned out to be an inconspicuous servant, a substitute for Li Jianqing who was looking for fun back then.

Li Wenxiu couldn't love her, and finally he decided to take revenge on Li Jianqing. He wanted to take away what Li Jianqing loved the most.Li Wenxiu became a spy of the Beimang people. He revealed the news of Li Xiaoyao to the enemy and killed Li Jianqing's eldest sister.

Zhou Heng frowned. Li Jianqing couldn't finish talking about those romantic and absurd things for three days and three nights. Li Jianqing didn't understand love, and he didn't know what wrong things people who love to the extreme would do.

Li Jianqing has been chasing after love since he was a child, and he has died in the word love in his life.

Li Xiaoyao had known for a long time that Li Jianqing's character would suffer a lot in the future, so Li Xiaoyao asked Zhou Heng to grab her brother in the future because Li Xiaoyao knew that he would die on the battlefield at any time.

"He's dead now." Li Jianqing smiled viciously, and said, "Li Wenxiu's death was very painful."

This is definitely the style of the little prince, he will not let Li Wenxiu go, even if he does not hesitate to use Li Xingkong's power, he will put Li Wenxiu to death.The little prince was good at torturing people, he said that Li Wenxiu's death was painful, that is the pain that ordinary people can't bear.

But this can't change the eldest sister, Li Xiaoyao is dead.

Zhou Heng said coldly: "You killed her."

Li Jianqing suddenly went crazy when he heard this sentence, and yelled frantically, "Shut up!"

Before Zhou Heng continued to speak, Li Jianqing seemed to be telling himself: "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!"

Zhou Heng knew that Li Jianqing thought the same way in his heart, he killed his eldest sister.The only person in this world who treats him well is the elder sister.The source of his power is his elder sister. Li Jianqing who left Li Xiaoyao is even worse than a dog.

Li Jianqing's hysterical yelling was completely different from the romantic and suave little prince that others thought.Zhou Jin looked startled, and whispered: "Brother Huang, is he crazy?"

Zhou Heng shook his head, Li Jianqing was a lunatic by nature, and it was not surprising that he did anything.

After a while, Li Jianqing calmed down by himself, he was still panting heavily, he closed his eyes, his long eyelashes drooping and shaking all the time.

Zhou Heng asked, "What are you going to do?"

Zhou Heng wanted to take advantage of Li Jianqing's name, he was the real little prince, the only one in the Li family who was serious.In the name of Li Jianqing, he can regain control of the Zhenbei Army.It's just that I don't know if the Zhenbei Army can withstand the infighting in this scene.

Li Jianqing opened his eyes after panting for a few moments, he evoked a cruel smile, and said, "I will take my things back by myself, but not now."

Li Jianqing looked at his hands. He was born with everything. When he was a child, King Zhenbei carried him, and when he grew up, Li Xiaoyao supported him. This is the first time he really wants to do something from nothing. What's up.

Li Jianqing was full of hatred now, Zhou Heng couldn't talk to him about why, so he left after saying a few words.

As soon as Zhou Heng left, Zhou Jin immediately chased after him, saying, "Brother Huang..."

Knowing what he was going to say, Zhou Heng interrupted him and said, "Take care of the little prince, don't let him cause trouble."

"Ah?" Zhou Jin opened her mouth wide, thinking that with the little prince's method, if he went crazy again, she couldn't hold it back at all.But the emperor's order was hard to disobey, and Zhou Jin had no choice but to comply because he knew that Zhou Heng believed in himself.

Zhou Heng stared at Zhou Jin thoughtfully for a while, and felt that he was probably raised too well by King Qi, and he had a youthful heart.Zhou Jin is already fifteen years old, but she thinks about things like a 13-year-old who has not grown up. Zhou Heng has already started to get in touch with court affairs when he was his age.After the death of King Qi, Zhou Heng has been promoting Zhou Jin, bestowing a title at a young age, and now Zhou Jin is King Qi.

Zhou Heng had selfish intentions towards Zhou Jin. He didn't want heirs, but wanted to train Zhou Jin to be the next generation of emperor. Now it seems that there is still a long way to go on this road.

Zhou Heng shook his head, feeling that things were getting more and more chaotic.

But the more chaotic, the more stable he has to be.Now Li Jianqing can't ask any questions, and the battle in the north keeps coming.Li Xingkong is still guarding the world of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At present, it seems that Li Xingkong has no intention of rebelling. Li Xiaoyao's influence on him is too deep.But there was no guarantee when Li Xingkong would want to betray him. Zhou Heng didn't know Li Xingkong but had to prepare for the worst. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible.

Wars broke out everywhere, not only at Yanmen Pass, more and more cities were destroyed, and none of the battle reports that came in every day was a happy event.

Finally, one month later, on September [-]th of the second year of Tai'an, Zhou Heng decided to march in person.

This kind of incident alarmed the government and the public. Zhou Heng's imperial conquest could inspire the army, but he didn't even have a crown prince. If something happened to Zhou Heng, the entire Great Zhou Dynasty would be over.Before Zhou Heng left, he talked with Li Jianqing about this matter, and Li Jianqing said bluntly, are you crazy?

"Are you better at fighting than my elder sister?" Li Jianqing sneered, "There are things that my elder sister can't do, what shit can you do!"

Zhou Heng said calmly, "Then what do you want?"

Li Jianqing only said one word: "Flee." Li Jianqing had been on the front line. Although he had never fought in a war, he had seen the fierceness of the barbarians in Beimang.The Zhenbei army who were captured would suffer from scalping. They had no sense of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but simply killed.It has been snowing heavily in the north for three years, and the barbarians in the northern mang fight to survive. They are not afraid of death because they want their younger generations to get more land.

Zhou Heng asked, "Where did you escape to?"

Li Jianqing replied: "Move the capital to Jinling!" This was not his idea alone, many ministers in the court had the same idea, and they gave a performance to Zhou Heng, but they didn't respond.

Zhou Heng said: "Then what? I will bow my knees all my life, so what about the people in the north?"

Li Jianqing was speechless, there were no ordinary people in his eyes, only a few nobles in his eyes.

Zhou Heng shook his head, and said, "Your elder sister asked me to guard the world, which is not what Li Xiaoyao wants for peace in the world."

Li Jianqing was choked. He knew the last wish of the eldest sister better than anyone else. The eldest sister wanted peace in the world, and she didn't have time to see the real peace in the world until she died.

Zhou Heng said: "If something happens to me, I will assist Zhou Jin to take over."

Li Jianqing thought of the little Zhou Jin who didn't have all his hair, and snorted, that's a milk doll. Once he loses Zhou Heng's support, he doesn't know how he died. He can be born directly by those hungry wolves in the court. swallowed.

Li Jianqing said: "Aren't you afraid that when you come back, the surname will be Li in this world?" Li Jianqing is not a good person, how could he be willing to let the Zhou family guard the world.

Zhou Heng looked at Li Jianqing for a long time, knowing that Li Jianqing was making a last-ditch effort to persuade him not to go north, Zhou Heng shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid."

Li Jianqingzhi is not here, even if it is for Li Xiaoyao's ambition, he will not do those things.

Li Jianqing snorted, he was angry, and he has always had a childish temper until now.On the day Zhou Heng left, Li Jianqing didn't go to see him off. After Zhou Heng left, he realized that he had fought like that with Zhou Heng before, but now Zhou Heng is indeed the closest person to him.

The people close to him are all fools, why are they all running to the northern battlefield.He had already lost a Li Xiaoyao, and he couldn't afford to lose Zhou Heng again.

There were only two "Kuns" left by Li Jianqing's side, and now he didn't want them to guard him anymore. They were stunned when they heard the order, as if they couldn't believe that Li Jianqing really didn't leave anyone to guard him.

Li Jianqing said: "Go to Fucheng, tell him that his man is going to die, ask him to take care of it!"
