After the death of the host: the tyrant cried red eyes

The blood of the brothers dyed their battle robes red and brought them great military exploits. Who would have thought that all this today could not be worth a word from the emperor.

Ironically, what was he fighting for? Shen Bingning, a woman known for her hard-heartedness, was also shocked by Xiao Yi's determination. She was secretly surprised that this child's heart could be so cruel? Just because of a sword revenge, she wanted to kill a brave general?

If this is true, then the fact that he was seriously injured but still survived until now was actually the result of Xiao Yi showing mercy.

The imperial physician finally hurried over, and the tension in the air reached its peak. He carefully treated Xiao Yi's wound, his fingers trembling slightly, and there was a hint of relief in his voice: "Fortunately, the sword wound is not deep. If you apply medicine on time, it will heal in about half a month."

Hearing this, the tension in the crowd eased a little. Since the injury was not fatal, would His Majesty revoke his order? However, until the imperial physician left, Xiao Yi's attitude remained firm. He stared coldly at Shangguan Yi who was kneeling on the ground, and his voice was like a cold wind passing through: "Do you want me to say it again?"

Shen Bingning was horrified. Was he really going to take Shangguan Yi's life? It would be fine if it was anyone else, but Shangguan Yi was Xiao Yi's most trusted general. The climax of the novel was the critical moment when Shangguan Yi led his cavalry to sweep through the enemy and help Xiao Yi unify the world.

If Shangguan Yi were eliminated at this time, how would the subsequent story unfold?

"Host, Shangguan Yi is too important, nothing can happen to him!"

The system's voice sounded anxiously in her mind.

"I know!"

Shen Bingning responded in her heart. Seeing the guards getting ready to execute the order, she didn't have time to think about it. She rushed to Shangguan Yi and blocked the guards' way: "Your Majesty, please think twice before you act!"

Xiao Yi's eyes fell on Shen Bingning who suddenly appeared. The smile on his lips faded, and his eyes became colder. He asked in a deep voice, "Queen, what do you mean by this?"

His eyes were as cold as ice, as if they could freeze one's blood. Shen Bingning forced out a smile, trying to ease the atmosphere: "General Shangguan has made great military achievements and is a pillar of the country. Isn't it a waste of talent to execute him so easily?"

Shangguan Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head upon hearing this and looked at the queen who was pleading for him, his heart full of doubts.

He remembered that he had only met the queen once, so why did she help him? A trace of confusion flashed across his handsome face. There were rumors in the palace that the queen was a beauty who brought disaster and was cruel and ruthless, but the scene before him surprised him.

"Oh?"

Xiao Yi approached step by step. The sunlight shone through the window lattice into his eyes, reflecting a kind of cold madness. His thin lips were slightly pursed, which made people feel fearful.

He seemed to be laughing at her. Was she unable to control herself over such a small trick? Did she think that he couldn't see her subtle feelings for Shangguan Yi?

A sneer spread across Xiao Yi's eyes. Shen Bingning felt uncomfortable being looked at by him, especially his seemingly nonchalant tone, which made it difficult to guess his true intentions: "There are many talented people in the palace. Without Shangguan Yi, is there no one left?"

"This……"

Shen Bingning sighed inwardly, realizing that indeed no one could replace Shangguan Yi's position.

She didn't dare to anger Xiao Yi again. Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, she had to agree with him and said, "Your Majesty is right. There is no shortage of candidates for the position of general, but... General Shangguan has made great contributions to the country. If he is sentenced to death for this, the news will spread, which will probably damage Your Majesty's reputation!"

Xiao Yi nodded thoughtfully, and glanced at Shen Bingning sharply: "So, the Queen is considering me?"

Shen Bingning nodded quickly, with a sincere look on her face: "Of course!"

fraud.

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a captivating light flashing in the depths of his black eyes, as if he could see through her thoughts.

"What if I don't want to?" he asked calmly.

Shen Bingning knew that it was not easy to persuade Xiao Yi, so she forced a brighter smile, with a bit of flattery in her tone: "Your Majesty, think about it, although killing General Shangguan may relieve your anger for a while, it is actually of no benefit to you! General Shangguan is kind and benevolent, and has saved countless people. If you kill him, it will probably arouse public anger, which is not good for Your Majesty!"

After she finished speaking, Shen Bingning felt a little relieved. After all, what she said was the truth. Although Xiao Yi had a violent temper, he was not so stupid as to not understand this and do something that would destroy himself.

However, Xiao Yi, who had listened patiently, became even more gloomy. He spoke slowly with a hint of coldness in his tone: "The Queen seems to have forgotten something."

A hint of surprise flashed across Shen Bingning's eyes. She was slightly stunned, and her gaze involuntarily fell on Xiao Yi's deep eyes. Suddenly, an indescribable uneasiness and anxiety surged in her heart.

She opened her lips slightly and asked with a trembling voice, "W-what's the matter?"

This question seemed to be the most reluctant doubt in her heart, but she had to ask it.

The corners of Xiao Yi's mouth curved up, but that smile was mixed with a bit of arrogance and disdain, and his tone was full of sarcasm and dissatisfaction, as if he was mocking the superficiality and ignorance of the world.

"What I care least about is those illusory reputations."

His words were like a blade in the cold wind, cold and sharp, striking directly at people's hearts.

Upon hearing this, Shen Bingning froze in place, unable to find any words to respond for a moment.

She secretly regretted in her heart, how could she have forgotten that before the heroine who was as innocent as the first snow appeared, Xiao Yi was an emperor who looked down on everything and had a heart as hard as a rock. His world was never lacking in cruelty and determination.

"Suppress Shangguan Yi."

Xiao Yi's voice rang out again, cold and resolute, like ice in winter, freezing the air around him.

The guards looked at each other, exchanging uneasy glances, but finally they took a step forward and said respectfully but helplessly, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

Shen Bingning's heart tightened, and just as she was about to ask, she found herself surrounded by guards, and Shangguan Yi was ruthlessly pinned to the ground, unable to move.

The air was filled with tension and depression, as if foreshadowing a coming storm.

"bass--"

A sharp sound broke through the dull atmosphere, and a ray of cold light flashed in the sunlight. It was the dazzling light reflected by the sword blade, cold and deadly.

Xiao Yi stood with his back to the light, holding a long sword, his figure blending into the darkness, looking particularly lonely and resolute. Shen Bing stared at this scene, and for the first time, a real fear surged in his heart, a tremor that came from the depths of his soul.

"Your Majesty, what are you..."

She tried to open her mouth, but found that her throat seemed to be blocked by an invisible object, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito's, almost inaudible.
