I don't want to be born again

Qing Ge also burst into tears. "

Chu Qing held his wine glass and leaned against the pillow. On the couch table beside him were several empty wine jugs that were tilted to and fro. His eyes were blurred, and he drank wine self-consciously, one glass after another, as if he couldn't drink enough.

Shuyi watched from the side, anxious, but dared not say a word of persuasion.

In the past six months, the emperor's temper has become more and more surly, and people are also... Shu Yi peeped at Chu Qing's thin and out of shape face, his eyes were sad, how could a person who was so handsome and upright, with a jade tree facing the wind, become like this in more than half a year?

Chu Qing drank another jug ​​of wine, and Wang Wei on the other side also stopped after singing, got up and came over to replace him with a new jug of wine.

Wang Wei was wearing a lavender wide-sleeved gown today, and the faint fragrance of sinking water exuded from his body as he moved, lingering on the tip of Chu Qing's nose, seemingly inadvertently provoking his mood.

Chu Qing rolled her eyes, and raised her hand to grab Wang Wei's forearm and slam it into her arms, pressing him down.

Wang Wei exclaimed, there was a loud clang on the couch table, a piece of empty wine bottle fell down, and some fell directly to the ground and shattered.

Chu Qing didn't seem to have heard, one hand was pressed on Wang Wei's shoulder, and the other hand was caressing his face.

Wang Wei trembled all over and did not dare to move, his face turned pale and he could not speak, he just looked at Chu Qing in fear.

He was really afraid of Chu Qing.

Since Chu Qing saw that day on the single bridge of Zhenwan Pavilion, he has not spent a single day in fear in the past six months or so.

Life is worse than death, and even death is impossible.

Chu Qing pierced two holes in his body, one in his chest and one under his body, and that time he narrowly escaped death.

But the real nightmare is after the injury is healed.

Chu Qing called him in the middle of the night almost every night, carefully looked at the scars on his body, and if he felt dissatisfied, he would cut them open again with a knife.

The chest area is also tolerable, but under the body, as long as Wang Wei thinks of the disgusting pain, he will feel cold all over his body, and wish he could die immediately.

Later, when Chu Qing was a little more satisfied with his two wounds, he began to think about making scald marks on his body again.

He would pour scalding hot soup on Wang Wei's back, and the next day he would be thrown into the tub to soak until the wound rotted and inflamed, and then he would have the imperial doctor come and treat him for a few days, and he would check it again after the injury healed. If you are not satisfied, you have to do it all over again.

This repeated torture almost made Wang Wei collapse.Until now, whenever he was sized up by Chu Qing at such a close distance, he would subconsciously be afraid.

But sometimes Chu Qing was very nice to him, so gentle that he thought he was dreaming.He would smile at himself, and hold his hand to spread out in the imperial garden. From late at night until dawn, he would tell all kinds of interesting stories and sing songs to himself.

Sometimes Chu Qing would kiss him forgetfully, and then lie on his body and pant heavily, but she never took any further steps with him.

The king had never heard gossip from the people in the palace. They said that the emperor was looking for a substitute for Qing Shaojun, and that substitute was himself.

Later, Wang Wei also found out that when Chu Qing kissed him, it seemed that he saw another person in his eyes.There was resentment and infatuation in his eyes, but it seemed to be full of remorse.

He once tried to hand himself over to the emperor, he is already like this, he has nothing to lose, the emperor is the master of the world, so he just clings to it.

But in the end, it was Chu Qing's fury. He smashed everything in the room and beat Wang Wei with a whip.

That time, Wang Wei was imprisoned and starved for three days, until he was dying, Chu Qing called the imperial physician to treat him.

Since then, he never dared to have any thoughts about Chu Qing, except to be afraid and obedient.

Chu Qing seemed very satisfied with Wang Wei's performance. He raised his hand to cover Wang Wei's eyes, and gently kissed the delicate tip of his nose.

Wang Wei only felt a wet and cool touch on the tip of his nose, he couldn't help shaking, and a groan escaped from his throat.

Chu Qing seemed to be stimulated, pulled off Wang Wei's collar, and gently stroked the scar on his chest.

Wang Wei's heart rose to his throat, every time at this time, Chu Qing would ask the tree manager for a knife in all likelihood.

He was very familiar with that Baipi knife. The moment the extremely sharp blade pierced his body, he really didn't feel it. He didn't feel pain until it was pulled out.

Wang Wei's eyes were covered, and the darkness made him even more frightened, his body trembled more violently, and he became more sensitive to Chu Qing's touch.

He remembered that Chu Qing's hand was beautiful, but he had only seen the right hand, which was the most perfect hand he had ever seen in the world.

The smooth touch in memory fell on his chest, Wang Wei clenched his teeth to prevent himself from making a sound, he was afraid, afraid that his voice would be different from that of Qing Shaojun, and that the emperor who was still confused at this moment would have tyrannical thoughts again.

But his forbearance and trembling seemed to arouse Chu Qing's interest, and the warm and moist kiss fell on his chest, making him itchy badly.

Chu Qing seemed to have discovered something interesting, and tasted it on Wang Wei's chest one mouthful at a time. He knew he was drunk, but felt very sober.

He knew that the person in front of him was not Xie Lang, but this body was so similar, even the trembling when he was emotional.

Gently licking the scar on her chest, Chu Qing felt that a place in her heart seemed to be filled.

This is lost and found, right?

Although there is a voice in your heart laughing at him, you are deceiving yourself!

But Chu Qing thought about it, and he didn't care.

"A-Lang, A-Lang, my A-Lang..."

Chu Qing's kiss was soft and warm, accompanied by whispers, like rain falling on plantains and wind blowing phoenix trees.

Wang Wei's body was pink because of lust, Chu Qing stripped him naked in two or three strokes, and when he looked carefully under the lamp, he couldn't get enough of it.

Chu Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and he took out a black cloth from his sleeve and threw it to him, and said in a cold tone, "Blindfold."

Wang Wei lowered his eyes, obediently wrapped the black cloth around his eyes, tied it behind his head again, bit his lips tightly and waited for the next thing.

"Ah Lang, I miss you very much..."

Chu Qing lay down with his arms around him, talking drunkenly.

"I regret it, can you forgive me?"

"A-Lang, I don't want your life, I only want you!"

"I push you, why don't you hide?"

"Ah Lang, I was wrong...I miss you so much..."

This night was unexpectedly calm, except for drinking and talking drunk, Chu Qing didn't do anything unnecessary, and he didn't find any shortcomings in Wang Wei's body that required a knife - his drunken eyes were blurred, so naturally he couldn't see clearly of.

However, the drunken words he said, to Wang Wei, were like thunder on the ground, so shocking that he couldn't recover for a long time.

##### (What should I do, it seems that Xiao Chu is abnormal... ah, Xiao Xie, please come back and forgive him!)

211. The Northern Kingdom Must Be Destroyed!

Three days later is the first big court meeting in September.

The cabinet submitted the memorial to the Ministry of Rites. It turned out that Princess Ziran, who was sent by the Xia Kingdom to the North Kingdom to make peace ten years ago, was framed and died of poisoning at the Beidi Mid-Autumn State Banquet.

The news is that in Splendid City, which arrived only yesterday, Princess Ziran has been dead for more than half a month.The person has also been buried, and the Northern Emperor sent a letter of credence lightly, and by the way, he also asked Chu Qingzai to send a princess to replace Ziran.

It means that Ziran has left a pair of children, so why not find a successor who is similar in blood to help them grow up, which is also good for the two children.

Princess Ziran is not the real family of the Xia Kingdom, but a court lady selected by the former emperor from the Shang Palace Bureau. He was sent to the palace logically.

Coincidentally, when the Northern Emperor proposed marriage, the royal family of the Xia Kingdom had few heirs. If the previous emperor had no princess, he chose an outstanding maid from the Shang Palace Bureau to marry the princess to the Northern Kingdom.

Originally doing this was actually a bit of contempt for the Northern Kingdom, but Ziran was a smart and wise woman, who was favored by the Northern Emperor, and was named a side concubine, gave birth to a child, and survived safely.

No one expected that such a woman would be poisoned to death at the state banquet in the North Kingdom.

The most puzzling thing is not how she died, but Beiguo's calm attitude towards this matter. It stands to reason that Princess Ziran came from Xiaguo and died at a palace banquet. Beiguo should be the first Time to send a note to the Xia Guo envoy in Jinyu City, and find out the truth and punish the murderer severely.

But now this letter of credence not only does not explain clearly, but even mentions that he wants another marriage partner, which clearly means he doesn't take Ziran or Xia Guo seriously.

After reading the memorial, Chu Qing asked, "What are your thoughts?"

The uproar in the court, almost everyone was filled with righteous indignation, the country was slapped in the face, it is really tolerable, what is unbearable!

Lu Silin was the first to make an impassioned statement, which made everyone in the court feel emotional and indignant.

Then came several members of the cabinet, who also came out to second, and then several censors.Next came the generals, who all said that it was all about defending the country.

Someone even mentioned that Duan Zheng disappeared during the Battle of Yumen Pass half a year ago, and the general had been stationed at the border for so long, waiting for the emperor's order.

Seeing that everyone was talking about the same, Chu Qing pondered for a moment, and said: "I am a state of etiquette in the Great Xia Dynasty, but the Northern Kingdom does not respect education and humiliates me and the princess. It is really deceiving. In this case, Prime Minister, you put Take the things out and tell all the nobles in the court hall."

Wen Wu of the Manchu Dynasty looked at Xu Shiqing, but saw the old prime minister calmly raised his head in response, and said, "Your Majesty, after all, Jin Yiwei found out this matter, why don't you ask Commander Cheng to talk about it first."

Seeing that Chu Qing had no objection, Cheng Wenyue came forward and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, the Northern Emperor had privately received with King Rong a few years ago, and Xian Huixian Chun Shaojun was a spy sent by the Northern Emperor. Chaoyi is in the harem, and his purpose is to wait for an opportunity to stir up civil strife in Great Xia, so that the Northern Kingdom can take advantage of it."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all over the court.

Xu Shiqing came out and said: "Your Majesty, the provocation of the Northern Kingdom is too obvious. If I just give way, Yelujin will think that there is no one in Great Xia, and the Celestial Dynasty can be bullied."

"Oh? According to the prime minister, what should we do this time?"

"Your Majesty, please send a mission to the North Country to investigate the murder of princess Ziran, and bring the orphan of the princess back to Jinxiu City to raise him."

Chu Qing nodded: "Just do as the prime minister said. Retire."

After the imperial court, the imperial study room was still lively. Everyone knew that the things decided by the imperial court were just the tip of the iceberg. The place where Xia Guo’s next decision was really made was in the imperial study room.

But at present, those who make decisions are still arguing.

"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be so simple!"

"What does Lord Lu mean by this? What do you mean forget it?"

"What is the meaning of Mr. Gu? Who in the court is plausible, and everyone is impassioned, and now they are shrinking their heads again?"

"Lord Lu, it's not Mr. Gu who is a turtle with a shrinking head. Mr. Gu at least yelled a few words."

"Cheng Wenyue! You have the ability to go to Yumen Pass to fight, so don't make sarcastic remarks here! A soldier's ominous weapon must be used as a last resort! Now that my imperial treasury is empty, do you think fighting is just a joke?"

"War is not a joke, of course, but it's not like saying that the treasury is empty can make people step on their heads and shit!"

"Hey, why do you still have a taste in your words!"

"I'm just a rough person, and it's nice to speak with flavor."

……

Chu Qing slammed the memorial on the table with a cold face: "Have you had enough noise?"

The room fell silent instantly, and everyone bowed and said, "Your Majesty, forgive me."

Chu Qing curled his lips: "Pei Lun, I understand your concerns, and there is nothing wrong with your advocacy of proceeding with caution. But I have also said before that some things cannot be resolved with peace as the most important thing. Yelujin has many tricks. I have been in the government and the opposition for many years, and there are countless hidden games, and the King Rong's story is not far away, could it be possible that you have forgotten it?"

Gu Peilun said: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't understand. The Northern Kingdom's move is also indignant. I just feel that since there is going to be a war, we must not act hastily. We must be fully prepared. Otherwise, this battle is very likely to be dragged down. Our country. Sejong’s expedition to Goryeo in the previous dynasty exhausted the people and money, and ultimately led to no peace for the country.”

Chu Qing nodded: "Since that's the case, let's discuss how to make complete preparations. Don't discuss anything else."

While everyone was thinking about it, Chu Qing got up and said solemnly: "Before you open your mouth, let me add one more thing, the Northern Kingdom must be destroyed! As for how to destroy it, that is what you should consider and study, understand?"

"The ministers and others respectfully abide by the holy will."

After the tone was set, a new round of discussion started in the imperial study room, which did not dissipate until after dinner.

Chu Qing put on his clothes and went out, but turned around and saw Cheng Wenyue waiting in the corridor.

Glancing at him coldly, Chu Qing kept walking and shook his head: "It's late."

"Your Majesty!" Cheng Wenyue knelt down straight and straight, "I'm fascinated by ghosts for a while..."

Chu Qing stopped and turned to look at him.

Cheng Wen took a few steps over his knees and came to the front, weeping: "My heart to His Majesty can be shown to the sun and the moon!"

Chu Qing raised his eyes to look at the dark sky, and said jokingly: "So what?"

"Your Majesty, I really did it for you. At that time, I didn't know about it, and I was kept in the dark about many things..."

"Enough!" Chu Qing interrupted him sternly, "I have waited for you for so long, but unexpectedly I still can't wait for your sincere words. I will give you one more chance at last. You can speak after you think it over."

##### (Note: 1. In order to save trouble, Ye Yewen said that the positions of women in the harem of the Northern Kingdom are relatively simple. The queen is the concubine, and the others are side concubines. There are also many women who have no status and are the women of the king hhh ; 2. In Ye Ye's opinion, war should be avoided if possible, but if it is empty, you can yy vigorously, 2333) May the world be peaceful, Amen!

212、So what if you know your mistakes?

Cheng Wenyue shook his body, finally sighed, kowtowed deeply, and when he knelt up again, his expression had already calmed down.

"Yes, I have selfish intentions, and I want to take revenge on him. For myself and for my younger brother."

Once you start, there is no burden to talk about it later.

The people in the yard had already been dismissed by Chu Qing with a look, and at this moment only the monarch and his ministers were facing each other.

"After the matter of Sixi Class was over last year, I told you that I wanted to track down the whereabouts of Qianshousuohun, but you told me not to investigate any more, so I suspected that I fell in love with that person.

"Later, Seventeen went to Sichuan to look for me. When he was on duty on the eleventh generation, the man was stimulated and became poisonous, and made a fuss. On the eleventh, he picked up the jade ingot and handed it to Seventeen, Seventeen I used it to discuss with the minister, and the minister speculated that it should be the jade ingot that His Majesty you deliberately showed him.

"Your Majesty knew his identity a long time ago. I didn't let the minister track him down at that time. I was angry in my heart. That's why..."

Chu Qing nodded: "Your junior is Jingyun, right? The leader of Danxi Pavilion is Xie Lang, right?"

"Yes."

"Why did you doubt Xie Lang in the first place?"

"Because the younger brother told the minister before he died that the young master could have killed us all." Cheng Wen said in a low voice, "At that time, that person let the minister and the others go after taking off the mask of the minister. That kick can indeed kill the minister."

"It's just you and Long 17?"

"Also, and..."

Chu Qing looked dull: "Who?"

Cheng Wenyue sighed: "It's Duan Zheng, he was the one who found Shi Qi in the first place, and Shi Qi found me."

Chu Qing nodded, so everything made sense.He let himself misunderstand that Xie Lang and Concubine Jin had selfish interests, and even poisoned the queen, and even the people in Concubine Jin's palace corrected Xie Lang, all of them did it together.

Earlier he was doubtful that it would be absolutely impossible to do it with Long Shiqi alone, but if Duan Zheng and Cheng Wenyue were added, one was the elder brother of the imperial concubine, the other was the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard, and Long Yingwei was added.

Chu Qing found it very funny: "With Xie Lang alone, is it worth the three of you doing so many things together?"

Cheng Wen raised his eyes timidly to glance at Chu Qing, then quickly lowered his head and said, "I didn't do too much, in fact, many things were just coincidences...it happened to meet what His Majesty thought in his heart, and we just contributed to the flames...that's all. .”

"You know what's on my mind?"

Cheng Wen gritted his teeth and remained silent, trying to figure out the holy will is another felony.

Chu Qing said again: "Did Long Shiqi tell you?"

The written word is more unclear, so, Nene looked up.

Chu Qing's thin face showed a weird expression: "He was the closest to me that day, and he saw it."

"Your Majesty, Seventeen didn't tell me anything. He went back to the Shadow Guard Mansion to be punished. I haven't heard from him for a month."

"Well, I won't pursue him if he comes back alive. If he dies, he will die." Chu Qing turned around lightly, "I don't care about disobedient shadow guards."

"Your Majesty!" Cheng Wenyue kowtowed heavily, "I know I was wrong! Please spare Shi Qi!"

"You pleaded for him, what about yourself?"

Cheng Wen was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled wryly: "One pays for another. I thought it was only natural for me to take revenge after being hurt by him, but I forgot that His Majesty had already paid it back for him. This time, I was really wrong." .”

"So what? What if you know you're wrong?"

Chu Qing's footsteps were messy, he muttered this sentence repeatedly, and walked away without looking back.

Do you know what can be changed by being wrong?He also knew that he was wrong, even outrageously wrong, but Xie Lang was already dead, and now that he pursued these things, no matter how clear and clear he was, could the dead be brought back to life?

come back to life?

Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat, as if she thought of something, but it was too fast, and she still didn't catch anything in the end.

This night, Cheng Wenyue did not go out of the palace, but knelt in the corridor of the imperial study all night, and did not leave until dawn.

No one knew why he knelt in the palace that night, and no one knew what their monarchs and ministers talked about.It's just that after that night, Long Shiqi returned to Longyingwei, Cheng Wenyue became the commander of Jinyiwei, and Yu Yibo was promoted to be Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

And Chu Qing didn't mention this matter again, as if nothing had happened, he was still diligent and rigorous, still often in a daze, and still couldn't sleep well.

Half a month later, An Wang Chuxiu sent back the news that the trial of the Jiangnan Salt Case was over. With the great help of the Shen family, nearly 700 million taels of salt tax in the past three years was recovered, and the corruption of ink led by Lianghuai Salt History was investigated. offense.

Chu Qing rewarded King An and Shen Qingyuan, and gave the imperial plaque "Qingyu Hall" to the Shen family in Suzhou as a token of appreciation.

In late September, the Great Xia Mission arrived in Jinyu City, intending to investigate the murder of Princess Ziran, but was sternly rejected by the Northern Emperor. expulsion.

Beidi issued a letter of state accusing Xia Guo of treachery and cruelty to Beiguo and his son. He also accused Xia Huang of colluding with Princess Ziran to steal Beiguo's confidential information and intending to poison Beidi.

So far, the two countries have turned against each other, and war is imminent.

When the salt tax came up, Chu Qing was busy preparing for the battle here.

It's just that no one expected that Koryo, which borders both countries, had an accident first.

213、Destroy Goryeo too

Koryo is on the east coast of the two countries, bordering both countries, but it is closer to Daxia and has more exchanges.But the east of Beiguo is barren, not as prosperous as Daxia, and there are very few contacts with Goryeo.

This time, what happened in Goryeo was a bit big. It was an army from the northern kingdom that occupied Goryeo's Pingan Road.

Nearly half of Ping'an Road is connected to the northern territory of Daxia, and that area is a plain area, which is a natural passage for the northern kingdom.

It's just that Xia Guo also got this news immediately, and sent it to the palace at night.

After seeing the memorial, Chu Qing didn't show the expected anger. He just snorted coldly and then lost his expression.

Several people in the cabinet were also used to the emperor's secretiveness, they only expressed their opinions one after another, and then waited quietly for the emperor to make a final decision.

"Then let's fight."

Chu Qing said something lightly, then got up and walked to the inner room, leaving the four of them looking at each other.

war?This is going to be a war?

Chu Qing walked to the door of the inner room and turned around. Seeing that the four of them hadn't recovered yet, he added: "The Northern Kingdom is going to be destroyed, and there is no need for Korea to stay."

"Ah?" Lu Silin was younger after all, so he couldn't hold back a low cry.

Chu Qing glanced at him, didn't say anything, and went directly into the room to sleep.

"What are you?" Yu Yibo patted Lu Silin's shoulder, "Scared?"

Lu Silin swallowed, he was a little frightened, frightened by the emperor's appetite.

"Goryeo is going to be destroyed too?"

"The country that sees the wind and turns the rudder, forgets righteousness when it sees profit, and makes troubles when it sees the wind, save it for the New Year?"

Lu Silin blinked, as if what he said was right, but why did he feel a little weird?Pulling down Yu Yibo's sleeve, he asked in a low voice: "Master Yu, do you think the emperor has been waiting for this day?"

Yu Yibo was taken aback, and just as he didn't know how to answer him, Gu Peilun smiled and said: "Lord Lu, there is a saying in Fangshi, that is, if you see through but don't tell the truth, you are still a good brother."

Lu Silin also laughed: "Yes, I have been taught."

The three of them surrounded Xu Shiqing after a few words. Seeing that the old head was dozing off bit by bit, they couldn't help curling their lips together, this old fox!

"Master Prime Minister?"

"Master Chief Assistant?"

"Master Xu?"

The three of them called and shouted, but Xu Shiqing just ignored him, but the three of them were determined not to tell him to hide this time, and pushed directly.

Xu Shiqing's nose was almost crooked, and he thought to himself, the three of you can do it, dare to confront the old man, don't you know how to respect the old?

The three of them smiled compensatingly but seemed unwilling to let him go, Xu Shiqing sighed secretly, not a single fuel-efficient lamp.

"Three adults, is there something wrong?"

Bah, bah, bah, there is something to do in Northland and Goryeo!What can we do?

"Prime Minister, did you hear what the emperor said just now?" Gu Peilun still bit the bullet and said first, "The emperor wants to start a war."

"Oh."

"It also said that Goryeo would also be destroyed."

"Okay."

"But how to start a war? There must be a reason?"

Xu Shiqing squinted his eyes, and took out a sheet of birth certificate from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Peilun.

"Look first, old man, I'm tired and sleepy. I'll go back to Donghua Hall first. If you have something to discuss, go to the side hall of Donghua Hall."

Gu Peilun opened the rice paper, and the corners of his mouth twitched after only one glance: "This, really..."

Yu Yibo looked up at Xu Shiqing who had gone away, and said with emotion: "Prime Minister is really hot."

"It's not just old hot..." Lu Silin looked up from the rice paper, "I'm afraid the teacher and the student have already discussed it."

"In this way, everything will be ready, my lords, let's talk in detail at the Donghua Hall tomorrow morning." Gu Peilun put away the page and smiled at the two of them, "There will be more and more affairs in the future, We are getting more and more busy, we must help His Majesty with one heart and one mind."

Yu Yibo and Lu Silin looked at each other, then cupped their hands and said, "What Master Cifu has taught you is that I will follow the instructions."

"Don't dare." Gu Peilun also cupped his hands and said, "Please, both of you."

Sometimes major events that affect the whole country are decided so lightly.A word from one person, a sum of several people, and then, the whole country will be used to rescue Goryeo and attack the North Kingdom.

This time Chu Qing learned the lessons of the previous two lifetimes, and instead chose to fight on multiple fronts against the Northern Kingdom.

In addition to the front line of Yumen Pass, they also took advantage of the Goryeo incident to pass through Goryeo, and approached the Northland defense line through its Pingan Road.

In addition, there is also the Western Front. Through negotiations with the small countries in the Western Regions, many tribes that have been oppressed by the Northern Kingdoms have been united to interfere and attack in the west. They do not seek merit, but containment.

Fighting on three fronts can be said to be exhausting for the North Kingdom, but the pressure on the Xia Kingdom is also really huge.

This not only tests the combat effectiveness of the army, but also a great challenge to the national strength, and even the perseverance and determination of being a king are included.

Fortunately, there was enough silver from the Jiangnan salt tax to make up for the shortfall, and there was ample food, grass, soldiers and horses, and the progress was quite smooth for a period of time at first.

However, although it is a three-front battle, the focus of it is undoubtedly Yumen Pass.

Because the Hexi Corridor, as a part of the undetermined border, has always been a place of stalemate between the two countries. The water and grass here are fertile, and the North Country has always coveted it, but because of the agreement between the two countries, it cannot be used indiscriminately.

In this way, when the war broke out, the Northern Army quickly occupied most of the Hexi Corridor.

However, Duan Zhanpeng didn't seem to attach much importance to it. In several confrontations with the Northern Army, he was timid, with little loss but no progress. It dragged on for more than a month, but he was still suppressed by the Northern Army.

The North Kingdom also seemed to be more arrogant. Although it never broke through Yumen, it also occupied several towns in the Xia Kingdom on that front line, and its arrogance was endless for a while.

Fortunately, Duan Zhanpeng had emptied most of those towns at the beginning of the year, which can be regarded as minimizing the losses of the people.

As a result, the doubts about Duan Zhanpeng in the court became higher and higher, but Chu Qing ignored them all. He only said that the general would not give the emperor's order, and said that he had no doubts about employing people, so he kept suppressing the matter. .

It wasn't until Xia's army captured the royal court of Koryo on the eastern front, and the king of Koryo left the city to surrender, and Koryo was completely incorporated into the territory of Daxia, that everyone suddenly realized that the emperor's real intention was this.

Chu Qing put down the victory report, got up from behind the desk, and let out a sigh of relief that Gao Li was finally taken down.With Goryeo as a stepping stone, taking over Jinyucheng is just around the corner!

It's just that he never dared to think about what to do after unifying the world.

It turns out that without someone to share with, whether it is joy or sorrow, it is all like this, and it is boring. ##### Hmm, Goryeo is Ye Ye’s obsession, no matter what, I can’t let this guy go in the article! 2333

214、Accidents happen again

The autumn wind is bleak, and it is late autumn, and the fallen leaves outside the window are all over the ground, and the palace servants are sweeping briskly and carefully with brooms.

The good news from the frontline was frequent, and the palace was full of joy, even in late autumn, the atmosphere was high.

Chu Qing has become thinner and thinner recently, and he still can't sleep well at night, even eating is not as good as before, and he took a bath the day before yesterday, and even lost a lot of hair.

At that time, he was stunned for a long time looking at the withered black hair that fell on the ground. He is only 27 this year. Even if he worked hard, why did he end up like this?

Raising his hand to block the sun, Chu Qing felt that the scene in front of him was a little unclear, rubbed his eyes with his backhand, and opened them hard to feel better.

I smiled bitterly in my heart, is this the fate of an emperor who works hard for state affairs?prematurely senile……

Persevere a little longer, and when Beiguo is taken down, he will be at ease, and then he will have a good night's sleep.

Maybe when the time comes, he will be able to sleep peacefully... right.

"Your Majesty, please put on your cloak, Your Majesty, it's cold outside."

Shu put his cloak on his hands and chased after him, bowed his head respectfully and said.

Chu Qing gave a "hmm", took the cloak and put it on by himself.

"I'm walking around, you don't have to follow."

Shu Yi raised his eyelids and glanced at him, his gray face no longer had the vigor it once had, but looked lifeless instead.

Thinking of this tree, I couldn't help being startled, but said calmly on the face: "Yes, the servant obeys the order."

Chu Qing tightened his cloak, walked out of the yard in the direction of Xueyue Lake.

Shu Yi sighed, and quietly asked the little eunuch to follow Chu Qing from a distance, while he went out through the corner gate, thought for a while, and then went to the imperial hospital.

Chu Qing was still the same as usual, and stood in Xueyue Lake for a long time, only looking at Zhenwan Pavilion quietly lost in thought.

At this time, it is the calmest time of his day. He will turn over every little thing in his mind and think about it carefully, which makes him have an illusion, as if that person is still by his side, I will laugh at myself, cry at myself, be sad and angry at myself, and sigh at my disappointment.

"A-Lang, I regret it, what do you think should I do?"

A gust of wind blew past, as if sand had blown into his eyes, Chu Qing lowered his head and rubbed his eyes, then raised his eyes inadvertently, but saw something flashing past on the three-story water pavilion of Zhenwan Pavilion, like ten figures.

Chu Qing didn't hesitate for a moment, raised his legs and ran up the single bridge, and rushed to the door, only to find that the door of Zhenwan Pavilion had been ajar all along.

At this moment, he didn't have time to think too much, pushed the door in, and went straight to the top floor of the water pavilion in the backyard.

But when he rushed up, opened the door and walked into the room, he realized that he was really so ridiculous.

What the hell is he thinking?

Do you think that person will come back?

If I treat him like that, even if he is a ghost, he will never want to see me again!

"Ha ha!"

Chu Qing gave a dry laugh, and turned around quickly to go out, but didn't notice that a window in the corner was not closed properly, and was being gently swayed by the wind, making a slight "squeak" sound.

A hand suddenly stretched out and held the window, and the slight creaking sound stopped abruptly.

Standing at the stairs, Chu Qing tilted his head slightly as if aware of it, but finally sighed, looked down at the winding stairs and became dazed.

I really lost my mind and went crazy, he had seen Xie Lang's corpse with his own eyes, how could he still think that he was not dead, how could he still think that he could come back?

Heart aching for no reason, Chu Qing squatted down clutching his chest, took out the blood-stained portrait and began to caress it carefully.

"A-Lang, A-Lang..."

A drop of tear hit the mottled and yellowed paper, making a muffled "pop".

Chu Qing raised his head slightly, the foreground became illusory and hazy, he must be crying again.

"A-Lang, it would be great if you were here, you can wipe away my tears, I, I can't see clearly."

He clutched the portrait to his chest, stood up suddenly, and muttered to the air.

"A-Lang, wait for me, we can meet after I die."

"If you are here, just look at me. Look at me like this. I won't live long. Soon, we will meet again soon."

"You believe me, A-Lang, are you here? Can you let me see you? You didn't go to reincarnation, right? You can't bear me! Yes, you must hate me. You love me so much, you are willing to go for me dead……"

"Alang!"

There was no response, which was reasonable and expected.

Looking at the empty corridor, Chu Qing was stunned for a while, and finally sighed deeply, put the portrait away again, and went downstairs.

Unexpectedly, after stepping down two steps, I felt a sharp stabbing pain in my chest, my eyes went dark, and I fell forward.

Chu Qing rolled down the stairs, knocking his forehead heavily on the stairs, warm blood flowed out instantly, and his eyes were blood red.

The stairs in the water pavilion were steep and narrow. Chu Qing rolled like a ball for a long time before he barely got stuck in the middle of the two stairs. His chin rested on the steps of the lower floor, and his body was twisted and stuck in the middle of the railing.

One leg seemed to be broken, and it was pinned under the body in a strange posture, while the other leg was stretched out of the building.

"Um……"

Chu Qing tried his best to prop up his body, but the severe pain from his legs made him fall back weakly, his chin hit the edge of the steps, and he groaned in pain.

There was a sharp tingling pain in the chest, and the bones of the whole body seemed to be broken, and there seemed to be countless bugs gnawing on the limbs, and Chu Qing's consciousness gradually lost.

Boundless darkness invaded, this was a feeling he was all too familiar with—the feeling of death.

Her body gradually became numb, Chu Qing turned over with all her strength, and lay on her back in the middle of the stairs, her head was drowsy, a blurry scene that had lost color in front of her eyes, and gradually she couldn't see anything.

It seemed to be getting colder and colder, Chu Qing curled his lips slightly, he must be dying, that's fine, that's fine.

"A-Lang, A-Lang..."

Chu Qing murmured softly with eyes that were lost in spirit.

The footsteps of the people on the stairs stopped, and the long and narrow phoenix eyes hidden behind the black veil narrowed slightly, their eyes were sharp and dangerous.

There were more and more bloodstains under Chu Qing's body. The visitor hesitated for a moment, and finally jumped down the stairs quickly and helped him up.

Chu Qing's eyes were out of focus, obviously he couldn't see, but he didn't last long, and passed out as soon as he was picked up.

The person in his arms was as thin as a stick, as if only a skeleton remained, his eyes were closed, his face was gray, his cheeks were sunken, and his eye circles were black, he looked like a dead person.

Distress flashed across the eyes behind the black veil for a moment, but was immediately covered by a icy cold.

He had already stood up holding Chu Qing, but suddenly let go and threw him down.

Chu Qing was ignorant, and when he threw him like this, he also rolled down the next floor.

The man watched him coldly rolling to the lower floor like a broken sack, but still stood still.

Chu Qing was blocked by the railing at the corner again, and he was stuck there with his body curled up. He felt the pain, but he couldn't wake up no matter what. His eyelids seemed to be heavy, and he couldn't open them no matter what.

He wanted to move, but the feeling of being bitten in his body made him weak, and the stabbing pain in his chest made him a little awake.

"Hmm...it hurts..." Chu Qing raised his hand and stretched out his hand weakly, "Ah Lang, isn't it..."

The hand hangs down feebly, and the person falls into a coma again.

The person on the steps walked down slowly, squatting beside him, and all he could see was the severed finger of his left hand.

The man lifted off the black veil on the cone hat, revealing an unusually ferocious scar on his face, starting from the corner of the left eye, passing through the bridge of the nose and cutting straight into the right cheek.

But those long and narrow phoenix eyes were still shining and moving, and now they were staring at Chu Qing without blinking, and their eyes were already red.

"You man, what do you want me to do with you!"

215. I Can't Fall Down!

Chu Qing didn't expect that he could still wake up, but this kind of waking up seemed to be worse than not waking up.

Because he was in pain, so painful that he wanted to cry without tears, his stomach was full of pain, and his whole body seemed to be ascending to immortality because of the pain...

He lay on the bed for three days, unable to eat anything, and vomited whatever he ate, because it hurt so much, it hurt everywhere on his body, it hurt when he was lying down, and it hurt even more if he wasn't lying down.

It turns out that when people are in extreme pain, they will vomit.

What crime did he do?

In the worst times of his previous life, he didn't seem to have the same feeling as he does now. It was obvious that everything was under control, but suddenly it became like this. He couldn't accept it.

Shu Yi lifted the curtain of the bed and saw Chu Qing staring blankly with his eyes open. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, you are awake. The imperial dining room has brought your favorite fish roe and crab roe porridge. May I serve you some?"

Chu Qing rolled his eyes and said hoarsely, "What time is it?"

He has been throwing up all the time these days, his throat is a little burnt out, and his voice is much hoarse.

And because he couldn't eat, he became even thinner. There was only one pair of eyes that were sunken in the eye sockets on the whole face, and they were still shining brightly.

"It's time to return to His Majesty."

Chu Qing blinked, and struggled to get up, but was stopped by a tree: "Your Majesty, your legs are not healed yet, so just lie down, and the servant will feed you."

Chu Qing shook his head: "Help me out of bed, tell Xu Zhiheng, I have something to ask him."

Shu Yi had no choice but to help him out of the bed and sit on the soft bed by the window. When Chu Qing fell down the stairs, the bone in his left calf was cracked, and his leg was hit by a splint, so he could only be supported when he walked.

The palace only said to the outside world that the emperor was injured, so they could afford to have three days of rest.But he knew in his heart that now that he was in a stalemate with the North Kingdom, he must not have any problems.

Even if it was pretending, he had to pretend until the battle was won. Even if his body was really at the end of his strength as he had expected, he would still make this crossbow strong until the day when the Northern Kingdom was destroyed!

Chu Qing reluctantly ate half a bowl of porridge, but even though he endured it, his body still hurts badly, and whenever his body hurts, his stomach feels uncomfortable
