Empress

The draft was in chaos because of the sudden departure of the emperor.

Guan Hongfeng left the hall full of hostility, and the queen told Eunuch Yang a few words, ordered him to stabilize the situation, and then left.

Guan Hongfeng came to Shenwu Gate in a dragon chariot, and saw Rong Cheng and Yu'an who were detained by guards in front of the turret.

Rong Cheng knelt on the ground, a few strands of sweaty hair stuck to his cheeks, his clothes were covered with mud, and there was a scratch on his white neck, the blood that flowed out had dried up.

Guan Hongfeng's eyes dimmed a bit, "What's going on?"

The leading guard said: "Your Majesty, today's small patrol found strange noises from the turret, and found that Long Ji and his servants deliberately escaped from the palace."

Guan Hongfeng looked around, "How did he get out of the palace?"

The leading guard walked to a piece of dry grass, stretched out his hand to push it away, and a dog hole was exposed in front of everyone.

Guan Hongfeng narrowed his eyes.

Even he didn't know that there was a dog hole leading to the outside of the palace. If someone with different intentions sneaked in, the consequences would be disastrous.

Guan Hongfeng said coldly: "The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is lazy and slack, and he was transferred to the Punishment Department. His position will be replaced by the deputy head."

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who was still enjoying the flattery and flattery of the palace people, was taken to the Department of Punishment in a daze, not knowing that he would face the punishment of losing half his life.

Guan Hongfeng got off the dragon chariot, came in front of the two of them, and looked down at Rong Cheng.

Guan Hongfeng sneered and said: "I said why you don't want to accompany me to the draft, so that's the idea?"

No wonder it was such a coincidence, Rong Cheng was unwell today, so he planned to escape long ago.

Rong Cheng lowered his head and said nothing, revealing a fair neck, the guard's dark clothes seemed to be shining, his breathing was hot and rapid.

Just a little bit.

Just a little bit, he will be able to leave this "prison" full of nightmares.

Guan Hongfeng squinted at Yu'an who was beside Rong Cheng.

Yu'an trembled so badly that he didn't dare to breathe out, the tip of his nose was almost touching the ground, and his nose was covered with mud.

Guan Hongfeng thought to himself that he shouldn't have kept this dog slave by Rong Cheng's side in the first place, not only did he not take good care of Long Ji for him, but even ran away together.

Guan Hongfeng said in a deep voice: "Drag this dog servant down and behead him, and hang his head on the city gate for public display."

Rong Cheng immediately stood in front of the panicked Yu An, shook his head and said, "If you want to kill him, kill me first!"

Guan Hongfeng's eyes were scarlet, "You think I dare not kill you?"

Rong Cheng was a little dizzy, he knew Guan Hongfeng too well, this man was a tyrant, and it was absolutely impossible for him to let Yu An go.

Rong Cheng's dirty fingers grabbed the corner of Guan Hongfeng's dragon robe, swallowed his anger and said: "I forced him to run away with me, it's none of his business, if you get angry, come at me."

There is a flattering meaning in this sentence, and it has long lost the arrogant and aggressive momentum it used to have.

Guan Hongfeng pinched Rong Cheng's chin, "What's the rush, after I deal with this dog slave, it will be your turn soon."

Guan Hongfeng slammed Rong Cheng away, and threw him to the ground with force. Looking at Yu An's hateful face, the emperor's heart moved, and he suddenly had a better idea.

"Send this slave back to King Shaonan and let him figure it out."

Yu'an suddenly raised his head, opened his eyes wide, his whole body trembled like a sieve, a wave of fear shrouded his head.

If he falls back into the hands of King Shaonan, he will definitely not have a good life.

Yu'an was terrified, and kowtowed so hard that his head was broken, and blood flowed out from the wound.

Guan Hongfeng was unmoved, "Drag it away and send it back to the palace. I want to see how the King of Shaonan trained this kind of slave."

After hearing the order, the guards came to drag Yu'an away, Rong Cheng hastily stretched out his hand to hug him, and said in a hoarse voice: "No, he is from my palace, even if he needs to be dealt with, I should do it!"

"You deal with it?" Guan Hongfeng laughed angrily, and said sarcastically, "Do you really think of yourself as a master?"

Two guards grabbed Yu'an roughly from Rong Cheng's arms, dragged him away, Rong Cheng rushed over, was slapped by Guan Hongfeng and fell to the ground, his ears buzzing non-stop.

Guan Hongfeng raised his leg, stepped on Rong Cheng's shoulder hard, and said through grinding his teeth: "With this skill, you might as well worry about yourself."

Yu'an struggled desperately, received a punch in the stomach, suddenly convulsed with pain, tears flowed out, and was dragged towards the direction of Shenwumen.

"Yu'an!" Rong Cheng's shoulder hurt like it was splitting, unable to break free, he watched Yu'an being dragged away.

Yu'an's eyes were full of tears, his constricted pupils were full of fear, and his wide mouth could not make a sound.

Soon, Yu'an's figure disappeared into the distance.

Guan Hongfeng knelt down and grabbed Rong Cheng's neck forcefully, "Did I treat you badly? Are you so eager to leave me?"

Rong Cheng's face was flushed, and he was almost out of breath, like thousands of mosquitoes lingering in his ears, making ear-piercing noises.

Rong Cheng panted and said vaguely: "Guan Hongfeng, you are really shameless, you torture me to death every day, is this good for me?"

"So you want to leave the palace and go back to your Red Country?" Guan Hongfeng laughed to himself, "It seems that you forgot that the Red Country has long been destroyed."

The image of pain seemed to tear open the scab of the wound, Rong Cheng couldn't breathe, his eyes were reddened, "Even if I go to beg, eat and sleep in the open, it's better than staying by your side."

During the stalemate, a voice came from behind, "The queen is here."

Seeing the scene in front of her, a triumphant smile flashed in the queen's eyes, she got down from the palace sedan chair unhurriedly, and saluted Guan Hongfeng, "See Your Majesty."

Guan Hongfeng didn't even look at the queen, his blood red eyes were full of Rong Cheng's face of not admitting defeat.

The empress stood up by herself, and asked with concern or worry: "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

Guan Hongfeng grabbed Rong Cheng's hair forcefully, forced him to look up, repeated what he said just now, and gritted his teeth: "I'd rather go begging than stay by my side?"

Rong Cheng went all out and said, "Yes."

The queen added fuel to the fire beside her and said: "Long Ji, the emperor treats you so well, how can you do this, isn't this chilling the emperor's heart?"

The last lead in Guan Hongfeng's heart was completely ignited. He looked at Rong Cheng's little face that was burnt to a discoloration, and said with a sneer, "You want to leave, but I won't let you go."

Rong Cheng's face was pale, and he clutched Guan Hongfeng's dragon robe tightly with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "If you have the guts, kill me."

How could Guan Hongfeng fulfill his wish? The five fingers inserted into Rong Cheng's hair tightened with such strength that tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "Long Ji, I will not let you die, but I want you to live. I will see it with my own eyes. How I tortured you."

After finishing speaking, Guan Hongfeng let go of his hand, allowing Rongcheng to fall to the ground, he groaned in pain, his face was flushed with sweat.

Guan Hongfeng calmly withdrew the dragon robe from his hand, turned around and got on the dragon chariot, without looking back, he said, "Send the dragon performer back to Longyue Mansion for retraining."
