Prince Boring and Concubine Qiao Ai
Chapter 31
"Who is that!"
Gong Si was about to rush forward, he could no longer control his rationality, who and who killed his biological father, everyone kept it from him, including the mother who gave birth to him and raised him.
Zhao Ling bypassed Luo Yi, approached slowly, put his hand on Gong Si's shoulder, "In any case, the matter is over, and the living are more important than the dead."
He turned his head and gave Luo Yi a helpless smile. Everyone hoped that Gong Si would grow up surrounded by lies, and completely cut off the chains of hatred in those right and wrong 20 years ago.
God gave him a chance to be reborn, maybe to pay off his debts.To return Luo Yi, to Ah Cheng, to the younger junior sister, to this innocent child.
Back in the palace, Luo Yi led Gong Si into the study, and wanted to explain the cause and effect of what happened back then, especially after a long period of time, which could not be clarified in a short while.Zhao Ling didn't follow. He lay on the railing of the Huxin Pavilion, staring straight at the silent lake. He was able to recall memories so peacefully.
Speaking of it, Luo Yi didn't know everything about it.The only ones who knew everything were him and the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, now the Lord Kuang Hou of Liang Guo, Kuang Chengzong.
……
Back then, Zhao Ling met Zhou Geng under the tower of the capital of the Qing Dynasty. Zhou Geng came to pick Zhao Qi up with the imperial decree of Emperor Liang.
In exchange for the prince's life in exchange for the covenant of eternal friendship, Emperor Liang finally made a compromise.
In the Battle of Jiliang, Qing Ji State won a complete victory, not only regained the lost land, but also captured the enemy camp commander Zhao Qi.Thanks to Zhao Ling's ingenious plan and formation, tens of thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled forced more than [-] elite Liang soldiers back to the south of Qiming Mountain.
Kuang Chengzong was one of the hundred thousand people who didn't want Zhao Ling to meet Zhou Geng. After all, Zhao Ling was from Liang, and Zhou Geng was first-class, and they were all classmates and friends of Zhao Ling in the past.If Zhao Ling softened his heart for a moment and followed them back, with Liang Guo's current strength, even if Zhao Ling didn't intervene, Qing Ji Kingdom's territory would not be able to be defended.
Zhao Ling insisted on going, and he had to hand over his eldest brother to Zhou Geng before he could rest assured.
Kuang Chengzong could only gamble on his kindness to Zhao Ling. At that time, when Zhao Ling was abandoned by Liang Guo, lost Xue Jiajun, and drank and passed out alone in the street, he was the one who gave Zhao Ling a The home where they can live protects the people Zhao Ling wants to protect, and because of this, it brings huge troubles to Qingji Kingdom.
The five-nation alliance collapsed, and then, the four countries unanimously regarded Qingji country as the next Ning country.
Kuang Chengzong is not stupid, but compared with Futian formation, he chose the latter.
Chu Di listened to his death, Ning Qiumo was stupid, Zhao Ling was the only one in the world who knew the secret of Futian Formation, he could break the formation, and he would definitely be able to form it, not to mention the legend that Ningguo Yuxi was in his hands, and there was an illusory artifact called Destiny, whether it was true or not False, Zhao Ling is the trump card that can change the fate of Qingji Kingdom against the sky.
The country of Qingji puts more emphasis on business than military. Its national power is very strong, but its city defense is average. The number of times the country has been destroyed in history has been eight hundred if not one thousand.After the country was destroyed, he wandered and wandered, separated and reunited, looking for a certain time to restore the country.It can be said that the weeds are endlessly burned, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates.He wants to change the future that may repeat the same mistakes.
Originally, he wanted to let the Four Kingdoms push Qingji Kingdom to a dead end. Zhao Ling is a person with strong emotions. If Qingji Country is in trouble, he will definitely step forward to protect Qingji Kingdom. But without the Xue family army, what can he do to protect it?Only Futian array.
Qingji Kingdom needs something like Futian Formation, not to bully other countries, not to be deceived by other countries, Kuang Chengzong felt that Futian Formation was made for countries like Qingji Kingdom.
But Zhao Ling just smiled slightly, saying that Futian Formation is not needed, he can settle the troubles, all he needs is to borrow tens of thousands of people from him.He did what he said, no soldiers were lost, and the victory was beautiful. Liang Guo stopped the war and sent a special envoy to ask for peace.
Kuang Chengzong didn't get what he wanted, but as the new emperor of Qingji Kingdom, as a former close friend and comrade-in-arms, he couldn't do anything to Zhao Qi.He doubted whether Zhao Qi was deliberately captured by Zhao Ling and persuaded Zhao Ling to return to Liang.
When Zhao Qi left, he boarded the tower and watched for a long time.
The figure disappeared, and the subordinates came down to report, "The archers are in place, and the Liang Guoxing ship has set sail."
Kuang Chengzong nodded and ordered, "If Zhao Ling goes with them, he will be killed without mercy."
Everyone has a choice. Born to be an emperor, he must choose his own country.
Kuang Chengzong really thought too much.
Zhao Ling is not as holy as he thought. He and Zhao Qi have nothing to say. Zhao Qi can clearly tell him about the death of his concubine, his uncle, and Xue Jiajun in advance. Just give him a little news. His resourcefulness and ability will always have the possibility of turning the tide.Zhao Qi kept saying that he believed that he had no intention of treason, but he always persuaded him to hand over the jade seal and turn around. How many times he said that the jade seal was not in his hands at all, Zhao Qi didn't remember a word.
The person he saved with his life, his elder brother, his 18-year relationship, that's all.
When they met on the battlefield, without any mercy, he severely hit Prince Liang's self-esteem.The disparity in military strength is extremely disproportionate to the final result. Zhao Ling wanted to use the disastrous defeat of the Liang Kingdom in the Battle of Jiliang to tell Zhao Qi and the world that if Zhao Ling wanted to rebel, he would have rebelled long ago. He just didn't use Futian Formation , also capable of getting what he wants.He wants the world, the world is his.
The prince of Liang Guo exchanged a peace agreement, Liang Guo won't lose, this is Zhao Ling's last bottom line, the last friendship.After being captured, Zhao Qi still wanted to persuade him to turn around, saying that he could forgive him by handing over Yuxi and his father.What a joke!The ending of handing over Yuxi and going home is similar to that of his mother, concubine and uncle.Without saying a word, he punched the opponent in the face, smiling openly, "Zhao Qi, Xue Jiajun's blood is all in vain."
The sacrifice of Pofutian Formation is also like a joke.
Zhao Qi leaned against the corner, still repeating his routine, "Father promised me that I will give you a way out, Ah Ling, please, hand over the jade seal, and come back with me."
Zhao Ling turned his back, he didn't want to listen anymore.Just now I had the urge to beat up this person violently to relieve my anger, but I accidentally saw the blood-red and somewhat blackened lines on Zhao Qi's back.
Forget it.
He is very tired and wants to rest for a while.
The white clothes were covered in ashes, and Zhao Qi was very embarrassed. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and grabbed Zhao Ling's trousers, "A Ling, Ah Cheng is getting married. He didn't join the battle because Lan Yin was pregnant with his child. It’s been a month, and it’s a boy. Double happiness, we’re all here, only you are missing. Ah Cheng said that he’s already prepared the wedding wine and candy, waiting for you to go back.”
"Really?" Zhao Ling pulled Zhao Qi's hand away, "Tell him for me that the sugar is too sweet, I have already quit."
Emperor Liang knew his son very well, so he sent the son of the Zhou family to attend the appointment.In Tianling City, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, there is a Linghu Lake outside the city. The place where the envoys of the two countries meet is on a boat in the Linghu Lake.
Zhao Ling boarded the boat, and was taken aback for a moment, and Gong Cheng was the one who came with Zhou Geng.
Gong Cheng did not participate in the war, unlike Luo Yi who stayed behind in the northern border, he did not come because of a happy family event.Zhao Qi was also taken aback, "A Cheng, aren't you..."
Zhou Geng and Zhao Qi winked, and they left the cabin.
"I didn't expect you to come, and I didn't prepare any gifts." Zhao Ling waved his hand, and the guards he brought also went out.
Gong Cheng was a little embarrassed, "It doesn't matter, it's the best gift for you to go back, A Ling. A Ling, you can go back with me. Lan Yin told me that if you don't want to go back, A Ling, I won't go back either."
Zhao Ling imagined the appearance of the younger junior sister bossing her around, and chuckled, Gong Cheng can be regarded as a beautiful woman in his arms, and lovers will eventually get married, even though they are destined for a lifetime, they are willing to do so.
"Have you decided on the name of the child?" Zhao Ling asked.
Gong Cheng nodded, "Shu Yue, the word my father mentioned, as for the name, Lan Yin said, Si, I also think it's very good."
"Thinking." Zhao Ling thought, isn't that the word he engraved on the dagger given to Junior Sister?
Seeing that Zhao Ling was in a better mood, Gong Si took advantage of the heat to express his intentions, "I believe you about Yuxi, and Lan Yin also believes you, but it's useless for us to believe you, unless Ning Qiumo clarifies it for you personally. If not, everyone in the world will think that you broke the covenant, hurt your friends and killed your relatives, and saved Chu Diting and Ning Qiumo at the risk of the world because they gave you the Ningguo Yuxi as a deal. Ah Ling, why don't you first Make a fake one, no one has seen the real one anyway, pretend to admit that you took it, and hand over the fake jade seal..."
"I won't admit what I didn't take. Ah Cheng, it's not the first day you met me. I, Zhao Ling, did what I did, and what I didn't do, I didn't do it. I don't need fake jade seals to cater to anything. What's more, I won't go back , it’s not just about Yuxi.”
"I know, you are angry in your heart. We don't think about the matter of the Xue family army. If they surrendered at that time instead of stubbornly defending the mountain forest, Luo Yi would not set fire to the mountain..."
"That's enough, don't mention his name to me." Zhao Ling patted the table, "Ah Cheng, I rebelled, this is the truth, and I can't deceive the world. The identity of a rebellious minister and thief is destined to be with me for the rest of my life. Xiaoqi, I can't be the Zhao Ling you imagined. I can't go back anymore, thank you, Ah Cheng, you are the only one who still treats me like a brother."
Gong Cheng hugged Zhao Ling and didn't speak any more. His words were what Lan Yin wanted him to pass on. He knew Zhao Ling too well, and it was impossible to turn around.
"You don't want to drink my wedding wine. Turn around, I want to come to your wedding wine. You are my child's godfather, so you can't let it go." Gong Si hugged her even tighter. Well, he was able to pull the Mingquan bow thanks to Zhao Ling's help. The younger junior sister can like him, and it is also due to Zhao Ling. He is reluctant to part with this friendship. Even if the family and country are different, can the friendship be broken as soon as it is broken? ?It's a pity that Zhao Ling's ties to Liang Guo are no longer there, unless there are some new ties.
He and Lan Yin's child.
Gong Cheng and Zhao Ling looked at each other and smiled. There is no hatred that cannot be resolved. Time can make people forget many unpleasant things. He believes that one day, Zhao Ling will come back.The seven sons of Xuanwu Pavilion can still be together, drinking wine and dancing swords, wandering freely.
The two walked out of the cabin one after the other, outside Zhao Qi looked at Gong Si eagerly, wanting to get some definite answer.
"Your Highness, don't force Ah Ling anymore, Ah Ling has made up his mind." Gong Cheng supported the fence with both hands, looking at the river with sparkling light, and there were several pleasure boats circling around, "During the war, our biggest Wish, isn’t it the situation where everyone lives well? In a peaceful and prosperous world, where is life not? You can live happily anywhere.”
Zhou Geng turned his face away. From the beginning to the end, he didn't say a word to Zhao Ling.The empty sleeves were blown up by the breeze. Zhao Ling took a quick look and noticed the green flute pinned to his waist.
"Farewell now." Zhao Ling swallowed back the words "the future will be indefinite".
Gong Cheng punched Zhao Ling, "I don't know when we will see you again after we leave, and you won't see us off? Just send us to the other side of the lake."
Zhao Ling half-joked, "You're going to knock me out and carry me back."
"A good way." Gong Cheng pondered.
Since Gong Cheng has spoken, he will give it a ride.Zhao Ling and the attendant next to him ordered, "Start the boat and go to the other side."
The attendant hesitated, Zhao Ling felt his embarrassment, Kuang Chengzong must have given some strange orders.It's just sending people to the other side of the lake, so it's not even giving them such a little personal freedom.
"Start the boat." Zhao Ling ordered.
Gong Cheng joked, "Give me a chance, maybe I really took you away?"
"That depends on whether you have the ability or not."
Just as Gong Cheng was about to brag about himself, his bow skills had improved a step further, when suddenly, something flashed past his eyes, the whistling sound of the wind, accompanied by the violent shaking of the wooden boat, it was an incomparably sharp arrow point.
"Be careful."
Zhou Geng drew his sword and stood in front of Zhao Ling. The first words he said to Zhao Ling were angrily, "Zhao Ling, you actually set up a trap to harm us? Do you want His Highness to die in Qingji Kingdom to avenge your Xue family army? "
Zhao Ling couldn't answer, he had no idea what happened.Crazy rain of arrows hit, as dense as raindrops, all shot from the cruise ship just now.The archers stood on the deck, attacking methodically.It was not a cruise ship at all, but a disguised warship. His ship was surrounded in the middle, but the guards on the ship had long since disappeared, leaving only the four of them.
"A Ling, what should I do?" The long-lost words rang in his ears.
When encountering difficulties since childhood, Gong Cheng would always ask him what to do.
"Enter the cabin!" Zhao Ling shouted, subconsciously turned around to see if Zhao Qi was okay.Zhou Geng was protecting Zhao Qi with one arm, and Zhao Qi was facing away from him, struggling to block the uninterrupted arrows.
The boat shook even more, Zhao Ling and Gong Cheng joined forces to block Zhao Qi and Zhou Geng.The first rain of arrows passed them first, and Zhou Geng, who missed it, blocked it.Zhao Qi can't have anything to do, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Daliang dies here, he will be ashamed to go to the underworld to meet his mother, concubine and uncle.
Zhao Qi knew his situation, and the three of them were working together to protect him. He was fine, so the three of them could let go without any scruples.He dodged a few arrows, was shot through his left arm by an arrow, and rushed to the door of the cabin enduring the pain.
"Ah Geng, Ah Ling, Ah Cheng, come in quickly!" Zhao Qi had shelter and was safe for the time being. The other three were more seriously injured than him. Recalling the time when Zhao Ling escaped from Ningguo Futian Array's sea of arrows with him on his back, Zhao Xiaoqi has not changed, he always faces him, and Zhao Ling is still his seventh younger brother.
Zhao Ling took a few steps back, "If this continues, our boat will sink. Ah Cheng, you quickly enter the cabin and shoot through the other party's boat with a Mingquan bow. Zhou Geng, let's make way for Ah Cheng."
"You rebellious minister and thief, don't order me!" Zhou Geng said, approaching the right side. Although he was holding the sword with one hand, he was holding the sword quickly. Zhao Ling was on the left. Arrows came densely.
Gong Cheng rolled over a few times and jumped into the cabin with the help of a pillar. Zhao Qi saw that he had been stabbed in the back and hurried over to help him.
"Your Highness, I'm fine." Gong Cheng held the Mingquan Bow with one hand, his arm trembling due to blood loss, he picked up the arrow that fell on the ground, aimed at the opponent's boat, and pulled the bowstring.
Zhao Ling felt that the arrows on the left were much thinner, so he took a breath.The counterattack begins, and they are no longer passive.It seems that there is another boat coming from the shore, and there are fireworks on the boat flying into the air.
The hull of the ship pierced by three Mingquan bows, the planks split, and the whole ship turned over.
Gong Cheng didn't hesitate, and then shot three more arrows at the boat beside Zhou Geng.
The archers fell into the water one after another. They didn't know the power of Mingquan, and they suspected how weak the planks of their own boats were.
The last boat realized that something was wrong and gradually moved away, but it still did not escape the range of Mingquan Bow.Gong Cheng drew his bow, intending to sink the last boat. At this moment, Zhao Ling and Zhou Geng also leaned over. Although they both escaped the fatal wounds, there was almost no good flesh on their bodies, and the blood had already been stained red. He took off his clothes and held on with a single breath of strength.
Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief.
"A Ling!" Zhao Qi shouted, "Water surface, behind you!"
Zhao Ling relaxed, he didn't have the strength to turn around, but he heard the wind around his ears, the left side was stronger, the right side was weaker, and they all rubbed against his ears and entered the water.
On the water, there was a scream.
Fireworks danced on the big boat, and one shot after another shot into the sky. Zhao Ling knew that it was a message between Kuang Chengzong and the hidden guard. He looked at the bow of the big ship with dim eyes. The archer, shot the arrow that saved his life.
Gong Cheng picked up another arrow on the ground. There were countless beads of sweat on his forehead, and the pain from the arrow on his back was excruciating. Using the Mingquan bow took a lot of energy. With the last sword, all threats were removed, no... And that big ship... has masters on it...
He wanted to protect Zhao Ling, the crown prince, and Zhou Geng, but his hands were weak.
too tired……
Lan Yin, he seemed to see his favorite Lan Yin, put on a cloak he made by himself, kissed his cheek, and said angrily to him, "If Ah Ling doesn't come back, you don't want to come back either."
Our child is called Gong Si, okay?
it is good.
Is mushroom soup good?
Delicious.
I like you a little bit, and I will try my best to forget Brother Ling, Ah Cheng, are you willing to marry me?
I would.
Lan Yin, I'm sorry, I seem...really...can't go back...
Red sedan chairs, white horses parading through the streets, wedding candles in the bridal chamber, and growing old together.
Lan Yin...
"Ah Cheng," Zhao Qi felt that the person supporting him was leaning on him almost all his body, and his pulse was weak. He had been with Lin Yueru for a long time, and he knew more or less common sense of medical skills. , life is passing by quickly.
"Ah Cheng, Ah Cheng...you hold on!" Zhao Qi hugged the man with his eyes closed, "Ah Cheng...you hold on!"
Zhou Geng and Zhao Ling, hearing the urgent shouts in the cabin, shot arrows in their legs and feet, they couldn't stand up, they tried their best to crawl to the cabin, and saw Zhao Qi holding Gong Cheng in his arms, crying unrestrainedly into the dark.
Ah Cheng……
Zhao Ling's whole body was cold, and he suddenly remembered that it was Gong Cheng who blocked him at the first moment when the arrows rushed in, and it was Gong Cheng who blocked that arrow.If not, according to Gong Cheng's martial arts, how could the arrow hit the vital part of the heart?
He tried his best to support the pillar to get up, staggered towards it, and touched Gong Cheng's cold wrist.
Ah Cheng, wake up.
Ah Cheng, wake up!
Zhao Qi pushed Zhao Ling away violently, "Ah Cheng is dead, you killed him, this is clearly a trap, can't you see it? You helped Kuang Chengzong defeat Liang Jun, do you think he can protect you? He wants to Kill you, kill you!"
Zhao Ling touched his eyes, it was full of water.
"If you turned back early, if you handed over the jade seal early and turned back...you killed Ah Cheng, and Ah Cheng was about to get married and soon to be a father. Are you worthy of Master? Master, he only has Ah Cheng Son, how can you make him accept all this!"
Master...
The big ship approached slowly and finally stopped.
Kuang Chengzong jumped off the boat, seeing the mess on the boat, the boat that had just shot arrows approached, a few archers jumped off it, and the leader knelt down to salute.
"Who told you to do it!" Kuang Chengzong kicked over and trampled his kneeling subordinate on the ground.
"Young Master Ling suddenly ordered the boat to sail, and they said on board that they wanted to tie Young Master Zhao back to the Kingdom of Liang, my subordinate..." The subordinate replied vaguely.
"He's joking, can't you hear it? Didn't I say that you need to send me a letter before you do it? Didn't I say that you have to wait for me to send back the signal to you before you can do it? Come on, bring him back for me , Tortured, who is it! Who ordered him to do this!"
Kuang Chengzong was about to go crazy, he was the one who ordered people to watch Zhao Ling, if Zhao Ling insisted on leaving, he would rather kill him than allow him to leave, but he had to confirm it himself before doing anything!When he was on the tower, he saw three boats surrounding him, so he thought something was wrong, so he hurriedly boarded the boat and sailed towards the center of the lake, but he was blocked by successive codes, and no one listened to his order.
Fortunately, Zhao Ling is fine.
"Quick, stop the bleeding first!" He left in a hurry without an imperial doctor, but luckily some of his subordinates were skilled in medicine, Kuang Chengzong hurried towards Zhao Ling, "A Ling, I'm not..."
"You can't trust me." Zhao Ling looked at the sky expressionlessly, "I'm afraid I'll leave."
"I do not have……"
Kuang Chengzong didn't know how to explain it. The man belonged to him, and he was a secret guard who only obeyed his orders. It wasn't just that something happened that caused today's tragedy.
Zhao Ling turned his head to one side, it doesn't matter whether he has it or not.
A few days later, Zhao Ling heard the results of Kuang Chengzong's interrogation. The person who sent the signal was on a mission for the first time. He was eager for success and wanted credit. If you want to leave, send a signal to the three ships that have been prepared a long time ago, and shoot them with arrows.Afterwards, Kuang Chengzong sent a signal to stop. He knew he had done something wrong, and he was so nervous that he didn't see it.
Nonsense.
He wants a trial.
Kuang Chengzong didn't stop him. Since that day, Zhao Ling seemed to be a different person. The once arrogant and arrogant boy turned into a walking dead, eating, sleeping, eating, sleeping... the cycle repeated.
Ten days later, when Zhao Ling came out of the prison, the scorching sun above his head was so dazzling.
Once upon a time, the Xue family army fought a vigorous battle with the coalition army, and a soldier of the coalition army died on the battlefield.So many people died on the battlefield that no one even heeded his name.But the soldier has a childhood sweetheart, who returned to his hometown after the war, and was selected by accident to join the Kuang family's dark guard camp.
Then, he met Zhao Ling.He hated Zhao Ling to death, but the emperor was partial to him and obeyed.He thought, if Zhao Ling hadn't taken over the Xue family army back then, the Xue family army would not have rebelled, the war with the coalition forces would not have been fought, and his brother would not have died. It was Zhao Ling who killed his brother.
But he can't do anything until he gets the chance.He deliberately changed the code, and mistakenly transmitted Kuang Chengzong's original code to stop into a code to continue and not stop.
Under the torture, he recruited them all. Zhao Ling had never hated a person so much. He almost used all the criminal methods he could think of. It wasn't until he saw that person dying that he realized what a boring thing he was doing. .
With one blow, he chopped off the man's head.
The daily nightmare is still the shadow of Gong Cheng piercing his heart with an arrow.
Zhao Qi left with Gong Cheng's body, but forgot to take the Mingquan Bow.Zhao Ling hangs Mingquan Bow by the bedside, besides eating and sleeping, there is one more thing to do every day, looking at the bow in a daze.
Kuang Chengzong knocked on the door, Zhao Ling has been like this for two months, he really couldn't take it anymore.
"It's the fourth batch of assassins. I'm so annoying. Do you think I'm in prison for nothing? I also have to spend money to buy rice." Kuang Chengzong deliberately joked that these days Liang Guo's Jianghu organization Xuanwu Pavilion keeps sending assassins , tried to kill Zhao Ling, but was captured alive and locked up, "There is a woman who is pretty, but she bites a bit of Zhao Ling's bastard, she seems to know you very well, do you want to go and see?"
Zhao Ling raised his eyes and said hello.
This made Kuang Chengzong happy for a long time, and Zhao Ling finally responded to his words.
The prison in Qingji Kingdom is very narrow, and you can see the end after a few steps.
Zhao Ling wore a dark black cloak, which almost blended into the night.He saw the woman huddled in a corner of the prison, her body trembling involuntarily.Sure enough...it was Junior Sister.
slightly protruding belly,
"Open it." Zhao Ling asked the prison chief to open the lock, and retreated everyone.
"Zhao Jingming."
Zhao Ling didn't say anything, and knelt heavily on the ground.
Gao Lanyin stood up slowly. The person who claimed to be the emperor of Qingji Kingdom came to see her today, and explained to her for a long time. Zhao Ling didn't know at all, so he was the one to blame, and the assassination was also aimed at him. Zhao Ling couldn't be blamed for this matter. on the head.She didn't want to hear it, and no amount of reason could save his husband's life.
"Zhao Jingming, I hate you!"
Gao Lanyin slapped the kneeling man hard, "You are the one who caused my child to lose his father. Zhao Jingming, you will remember me forever, because of you, my child has no father."
Zhao Ling didn't say a word, and knelt quietly where he was.He took out the dagger from his pocket, held it up high, and handed it to Gao Lanyin.
For a long time, there was no movement.
Zhao Ling stood up, turned and left.Gao Lanyin turned around, the door was unlocked, and a longbow gleamed on the ground.
Mingquan Bow.
That's what she came for.
Emperor Liang abdicated, Zhao Qi ascended the throne, and the country was named Jing'an. This year was the first year of Jing'an.The queen of the palace became the empress dowager and vowed to destroy Qingji Kingdom.Zhao Ling's crimes have been exaggerated, and countless versions of the story of the traitor and traitor have been derived. He even tried to kill his elder brother, and then sent his army northward, using the Futian Formation and the Mandate of Heaven to bring disaster to all living beings.
Emperor Jing'an chose to remain silent, reviewing the memorials every day, and discussing the world's policies with the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.Luo Yi hurried back to Mobei, not knowing why.In addition to the Mobei Army, nearly a million troops from the Liang Kingdom gathered on the border of the Qingji Kingdom. As a friendly neighbor, the Yan Kingdom also provided food and grass as support.
Kuang Chengzong had only two options, escape or surrender.
"It would be great if there was Futian Formation." He complained to Zhao Ling, Zhao Ling often went back to the city tower recently, which gave him a little hope.
"Fu Tianzhen, I want to take it into the grave." Zhao Ling still said the same thing.
"Have you ever thought about what will happen in the future when the Qingji Kingdom is defeated? I did it to protect you and Ning Qiu Mocai." Kuang Chengzong didn't want to admit that he had made a wrong bet.
Zhao Ling played with the fan in his hand. It was a gift from Mr. Chu, and he kept it with him all the time, so he probably won't need it in the future.
"Zhao Ling, think of a way. I can do whatever I want, but what about the people in the city? If they treat us like Ningguo..."
"It's not the same," Zhao Ling threw the fan to Kuang Chengzong, "The great war consumed countless financial resources, Liang Guo's treasury has long been empty, and now it is all relying on the Wu family's reluctant support. You Qingji Kingdom did not contribute much in the coalition army, and the accumulated financial resources are still the same. It is strong, and it happens to be the most solid force for the revival of the Liang Kingdom. The business of the Qingji Kingdom is developed, and you have a large number of capable people, especially the business philosophy, which has always been weak and lacking in the Liang Kingdom. Zhao Qi is a wise king. I can see this, and he has not expressed his opinion on the matter of the Empress Dowager gathering troops to besiege Qingji. He is waiting for your decision. If you give him what he needs, he will definitely treat the people of Qingji kindly. On this point, I can tell you you promise."
"You asked me to surrender?"
"Instead of surviving in the cracks and being displaced, it is better to choose the strong to cling to. In the history of Qingji Kingdom, there are so many subjugated kings, and you are not one of them. Qingji surrendered, Kuang was a marquis, hereditary title, and you have the right to self-government in the fief. People's living habits will not be affected too much."
Kuang Chengzong opened his fan and covered his face, "Zhao Qi will really give Qingji Kingdom to me as a fief?"
"It's up to you to fight for it. You have more chips than that."
"What else?" Kuang Chengzong snapped his fingers, unable to count.
"I."
……
Zhao Ling heard the sound of a vase falling on the floor in Luo Yi's room, "Enough, first blame Zhan Luan, and then blame a dead man!"
Hey, he's seen that vase before, and it's worth a lot of money.
Originally, it had nothing to do with him, but since he aspired to be Princess Luo, he is the future owner of the Luo Palace. These are all his family property. It hurts me to be thrown at random by Gongsi kid!
Gong Si pushed the door open and ran out, completely ignoring Zhao Ling as if it were air, and disappeared like the wind on his horse.
"Luo Yi, do you want to chase me or not?"
Luo Yi blew a whistle, Xiao Sansan came out from nowhere, he got on the horse, stretched out his hand to hook Zhao Ling up, and Qian Lima ran away quickly.
Gong Si was about to rush forward, he could no longer control his rationality, who and who killed his biological father, everyone kept it from him, including the mother who gave birth to him and raised him.
Zhao Ling bypassed Luo Yi, approached slowly, put his hand on Gong Si's shoulder, "In any case, the matter is over, and the living are more important than the dead."
He turned his head and gave Luo Yi a helpless smile. Everyone hoped that Gong Si would grow up surrounded by lies, and completely cut off the chains of hatred in those right and wrong 20 years ago.
God gave him a chance to be reborn, maybe to pay off his debts.To return Luo Yi, to Ah Cheng, to the younger junior sister, to this innocent child.
Back in the palace, Luo Yi led Gong Si into the study, and wanted to explain the cause and effect of what happened back then, especially after a long period of time, which could not be clarified in a short while.Zhao Ling didn't follow. He lay on the railing of the Huxin Pavilion, staring straight at the silent lake. He was able to recall memories so peacefully.
Speaking of it, Luo Yi didn't know everything about it.The only ones who knew everything were him and the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, now the Lord Kuang Hou of Liang Guo, Kuang Chengzong.
……
Back then, Zhao Ling met Zhou Geng under the tower of the capital of the Qing Dynasty. Zhou Geng came to pick Zhao Qi up with the imperial decree of Emperor Liang.
In exchange for the prince's life in exchange for the covenant of eternal friendship, Emperor Liang finally made a compromise.
In the Battle of Jiliang, Qing Ji State won a complete victory, not only regained the lost land, but also captured the enemy camp commander Zhao Qi.Thanks to Zhao Ling's ingenious plan and formation, tens of thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled forced more than [-] elite Liang soldiers back to the south of Qiming Mountain.
Kuang Chengzong was one of the hundred thousand people who didn't want Zhao Ling to meet Zhou Geng. After all, Zhao Ling was from Liang, and Zhou Geng was first-class, and they were all classmates and friends of Zhao Ling in the past.If Zhao Ling softened his heart for a moment and followed them back, with Liang Guo's current strength, even if Zhao Ling didn't intervene, Qing Ji Kingdom's territory would not be able to be defended.
Zhao Ling insisted on going, and he had to hand over his eldest brother to Zhou Geng before he could rest assured.
Kuang Chengzong could only gamble on his kindness to Zhao Ling. At that time, when Zhao Ling was abandoned by Liang Guo, lost Xue Jiajun, and drank and passed out alone in the street, he was the one who gave Zhao Ling a The home where they can live protects the people Zhao Ling wants to protect, and because of this, it brings huge troubles to Qingji Kingdom.
The five-nation alliance collapsed, and then, the four countries unanimously regarded Qingji country as the next Ning country.
Kuang Chengzong is not stupid, but compared with Futian formation, he chose the latter.
Chu Di listened to his death, Ning Qiumo was stupid, Zhao Ling was the only one in the world who knew the secret of Futian Formation, he could break the formation, and he would definitely be able to form it, not to mention the legend that Ningguo Yuxi was in his hands, and there was an illusory artifact called Destiny, whether it was true or not False, Zhao Ling is the trump card that can change the fate of Qingji Kingdom against the sky.
The country of Qingji puts more emphasis on business than military. Its national power is very strong, but its city defense is average. The number of times the country has been destroyed in history has been eight hundred if not one thousand.After the country was destroyed, he wandered and wandered, separated and reunited, looking for a certain time to restore the country.It can be said that the weeds are endlessly burned, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates.He wants to change the future that may repeat the same mistakes.
Originally, he wanted to let the Four Kingdoms push Qingji Kingdom to a dead end. Zhao Ling is a person with strong emotions. If Qingji Country is in trouble, he will definitely step forward to protect Qingji Kingdom. But without the Xue family army, what can he do to protect it?Only Futian array.
Qingji Kingdom needs something like Futian Formation, not to bully other countries, not to be deceived by other countries, Kuang Chengzong felt that Futian Formation was made for countries like Qingji Kingdom.
But Zhao Ling just smiled slightly, saying that Futian Formation is not needed, he can settle the troubles, all he needs is to borrow tens of thousands of people from him.He did what he said, no soldiers were lost, and the victory was beautiful. Liang Guo stopped the war and sent a special envoy to ask for peace.
Kuang Chengzong didn't get what he wanted, but as the new emperor of Qingji Kingdom, as a former close friend and comrade-in-arms, he couldn't do anything to Zhao Qi.He doubted whether Zhao Qi was deliberately captured by Zhao Ling and persuaded Zhao Ling to return to Liang.
When Zhao Qi left, he boarded the tower and watched for a long time.
The figure disappeared, and the subordinates came down to report, "The archers are in place, and the Liang Guoxing ship has set sail."
Kuang Chengzong nodded and ordered, "If Zhao Ling goes with them, he will be killed without mercy."
Everyone has a choice. Born to be an emperor, he must choose his own country.
Kuang Chengzong really thought too much.
Zhao Ling is not as holy as he thought. He and Zhao Qi have nothing to say. Zhao Qi can clearly tell him about the death of his concubine, his uncle, and Xue Jiajun in advance. Just give him a little news. His resourcefulness and ability will always have the possibility of turning the tide.Zhao Qi kept saying that he believed that he had no intention of treason, but he always persuaded him to hand over the jade seal and turn around. How many times he said that the jade seal was not in his hands at all, Zhao Qi didn't remember a word.
The person he saved with his life, his elder brother, his 18-year relationship, that's all.
When they met on the battlefield, without any mercy, he severely hit Prince Liang's self-esteem.The disparity in military strength is extremely disproportionate to the final result. Zhao Ling wanted to use the disastrous defeat of the Liang Kingdom in the Battle of Jiliang to tell Zhao Qi and the world that if Zhao Ling wanted to rebel, he would have rebelled long ago. He just didn't use Futian Formation , also capable of getting what he wants.He wants the world, the world is his.
The prince of Liang Guo exchanged a peace agreement, Liang Guo won't lose, this is Zhao Ling's last bottom line, the last friendship.After being captured, Zhao Qi still wanted to persuade him to turn around, saying that he could forgive him by handing over Yuxi and his father.What a joke!The ending of handing over Yuxi and going home is similar to that of his mother, concubine and uncle.Without saying a word, he punched the opponent in the face, smiling openly, "Zhao Qi, Xue Jiajun's blood is all in vain."
The sacrifice of Pofutian Formation is also like a joke.
Zhao Qi leaned against the corner, still repeating his routine, "Father promised me that I will give you a way out, Ah Ling, please, hand over the jade seal, and come back with me."
Zhao Ling turned his back, he didn't want to listen anymore.Just now I had the urge to beat up this person violently to relieve my anger, but I accidentally saw the blood-red and somewhat blackened lines on Zhao Qi's back.
Forget it.
He is very tired and wants to rest for a while.
The white clothes were covered in ashes, and Zhao Qi was very embarrassed. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and grabbed Zhao Ling's trousers, "A Ling, Ah Cheng is getting married. He didn't join the battle because Lan Yin was pregnant with his child. It’s been a month, and it’s a boy. Double happiness, we’re all here, only you are missing. Ah Cheng said that he’s already prepared the wedding wine and candy, waiting for you to go back.”
"Really?" Zhao Ling pulled Zhao Qi's hand away, "Tell him for me that the sugar is too sweet, I have already quit."
Emperor Liang knew his son very well, so he sent the son of the Zhou family to attend the appointment.In Tianling City, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, there is a Linghu Lake outside the city. The place where the envoys of the two countries meet is on a boat in the Linghu Lake.
Zhao Ling boarded the boat, and was taken aback for a moment, and Gong Cheng was the one who came with Zhou Geng.
Gong Cheng did not participate in the war, unlike Luo Yi who stayed behind in the northern border, he did not come because of a happy family event.Zhao Qi was also taken aback, "A Cheng, aren't you..."
Zhou Geng and Zhao Qi winked, and they left the cabin.
"I didn't expect you to come, and I didn't prepare any gifts." Zhao Ling waved his hand, and the guards he brought also went out.
Gong Cheng was a little embarrassed, "It doesn't matter, it's the best gift for you to go back, A Ling. A Ling, you can go back with me. Lan Yin told me that if you don't want to go back, A Ling, I won't go back either."
Zhao Ling imagined the appearance of the younger junior sister bossing her around, and chuckled, Gong Cheng can be regarded as a beautiful woman in his arms, and lovers will eventually get married, even though they are destined for a lifetime, they are willing to do so.
"Have you decided on the name of the child?" Zhao Ling asked.
Gong Cheng nodded, "Shu Yue, the word my father mentioned, as for the name, Lan Yin said, Si, I also think it's very good."
"Thinking." Zhao Ling thought, isn't that the word he engraved on the dagger given to Junior Sister?
Seeing that Zhao Ling was in a better mood, Gong Si took advantage of the heat to express his intentions, "I believe you about Yuxi, and Lan Yin also believes you, but it's useless for us to believe you, unless Ning Qiumo clarifies it for you personally. If not, everyone in the world will think that you broke the covenant, hurt your friends and killed your relatives, and saved Chu Diting and Ning Qiumo at the risk of the world because they gave you the Ningguo Yuxi as a deal. Ah Ling, why don't you first Make a fake one, no one has seen the real one anyway, pretend to admit that you took it, and hand over the fake jade seal..."
"I won't admit what I didn't take. Ah Cheng, it's not the first day you met me. I, Zhao Ling, did what I did, and what I didn't do, I didn't do it. I don't need fake jade seals to cater to anything. What's more, I won't go back , it’s not just about Yuxi.”
"I know, you are angry in your heart. We don't think about the matter of the Xue family army. If they surrendered at that time instead of stubbornly defending the mountain forest, Luo Yi would not set fire to the mountain..."
"That's enough, don't mention his name to me." Zhao Ling patted the table, "Ah Cheng, I rebelled, this is the truth, and I can't deceive the world. The identity of a rebellious minister and thief is destined to be with me for the rest of my life. Xiaoqi, I can't be the Zhao Ling you imagined. I can't go back anymore, thank you, Ah Cheng, you are the only one who still treats me like a brother."
Gong Cheng hugged Zhao Ling and didn't speak any more. His words were what Lan Yin wanted him to pass on. He knew Zhao Ling too well, and it was impossible to turn around.
"You don't want to drink my wedding wine. Turn around, I want to come to your wedding wine. You are my child's godfather, so you can't let it go." Gong Si hugged her even tighter. Well, he was able to pull the Mingquan bow thanks to Zhao Ling's help. The younger junior sister can like him, and it is also due to Zhao Ling. He is reluctant to part with this friendship. Even if the family and country are different, can the friendship be broken as soon as it is broken? ?It's a pity that Zhao Ling's ties to Liang Guo are no longer there, unless there are some new ties.
He and Lan Yin's child.
Gong Cheng and Zhao Ling looked at each other and smiled. There is no hatred that cannot be resolved. Time can make people forget many unpleasant things. He believes that one day, Zhao Ling will come back.The seven sons of Xuanwu Pavilion can still be together, drinking wine and dancing swords, wandering freely.
The two walked out of the cabin one after the other, outside Zhao Qi looked at Gong Si eagerly, wanting to get some definite answer.
"Your Highness, don't force Ah Ling anymore, Ah Ling has made up his mind." Gong Cheng supported the fence with both hands, looking at the river with sparkling light, and there were several pleasure boats circling around, "During the war, our biggest Wish, isn’t it the situation where everyone lives well? In a peaceful and prosperous world, where is life not? You can live happily anywhere.”
Zhou Geng turned his face away. From the beginning to the end, he didn't say a word to Zhao Ling.The empty sleeves were blown up by the breeze. Zhao Ling took a quick look and noticed the green flute pinned to his waist.
"Farewell now." Zhao Ling swallowed back the words "the future will be indefinite".
Gong Cheng punched Zhao Ling, "I don't know when we will see you again after we leave, and you won't see us off? Just send us to the other side of the lake."
Zhao Ling half-joked, "You're going to knock me out and carry me back."
"A good way." Gong Cheng pondered.
Since Gong Cheng has spoken, he will give it a ride.Zhao Ling and the attendant next to him ordered, "Start the boat and go to the other side."
The attendant hesitated, Zhao Ling felt his embarrassment, Kuang Chengzong must have given some strange orders.It's just sending people to the other side of the lake, so it's not even giving them such a little personal freedom.
"Start the boat." Zhao Ling ordered.
Gong Cheng joked, "Give me a chance, maybe I really took you away?"
"That depends on whether you have the ability or not."
Just as Gong Cheng was about to brag about himself, his bow skills had improved a step further, when suddenly, something flashed past his eyes, the whistling sound of the wind, accompanied by the violent shaking of the wooden boat, it was an incomparably sharp arrow point.
"Be careful."
Zhou Geng drew his sword and stood in front of Zhao Ling. The first words he said to Zhao Ling were angrily, "Zhao Ling, you actually set up a trap to harm us? Do you want His Highness to die in Qingji Kingdom to avenge your Xue family army? "
Zhao Ling couldn't answer, he had no idea what happened.Crazy rain of arrows hit, as dense as raindrops, all shot from the cruise ship just now.The archers stood on the deck, attacking methodically.It was not a cruise ship at all, but a disguised warship. His ship was surrounded in the middle, but the guards on the ship had long since disappeared, leaving only the four of them.
"A Ling, what should I do?" The long-lost words rang in his ears.
When encountering difficulties since childhood, Gong Cheng would always ask him what to do.
"Enter the cabin!" Zhao Ling shouted, subconsciously turned around to see if Zhao Qi was okay.Zhou Geng was protecting Zhao Qi with one arm, and Zhao Qi was facing away from him, struggling to block the uninterrupted arrows.
The boat shook even more, Zhao Ling and Gong Cheng joined forces to block Zhao Qi and Zhou Geng.The first rain of arrows passed them first, and Zhou Geng, who missed it, blocked it.Zhao Qi can't have anything to do, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Daliang dies here, he will be ashamed to go to the underworld to meet his mother, concubine and uncle.
Zhao Qi knew his situation, and the three of them were working together to protect him. He was fine, so the three of them could let go without any scruples.He dodged a few arrows, was shot through his left arm by an arrow, and rushed to the door of the cabin enduring the pain.
"Ah Geng, Ah Ling, Ah Cheng, come in quickly!" Zhao Qi had shelter and was safe for the time being. The other three were more seriously injured than him. Recalling the time when Zhao Ling escaped from Ningguo Futian Array's sea of arrows with him on his back, Zhao Xiaoqi has not changed, he always faces him, and Zhao Ling is still his seventh younger brother.
Zhao Ling took a few steps back, "If this continues, our boat will sink. Ah Cheng, you quickly enter the cabin and shoot through the other party's boat with a Mingquan bow. Zhou Geng, let's make way for Ah Cheng."
"You rebellious minister and thief, don't order me!" Zhou Geng said, approaching the right side. Although he was holding the sword with one hand, he was holding the sword quickly. Zhao Ling was on the left. Arrows came densely.
Gong Cheng rolled over a few times and jumped into the cabin with the help of a pillar. Zhao Qi saw that he had been stabbed in the back and hurried over to help him.
"Your Highness, I'm fine." Gong Cheng held the Mingquan Bow with one hand, his arm trembling due to blood loss, he picked up the arrow that fell on the ground, aimed at the opponent's boat, and pulled the bowstring.
Zhao Ling felt that the arrows on the left were much thinner, so he took a breath.The counterattack begins, and they are no longer passive.It seems that there is another boat coming from the shore, and there are fireworks on the boat flying into the air.
The hull of the ship pierced by three Mingquan bows, the planks split, and the whole ship turned over.
Gong Cheng didn't hesitate, and then shot three more arrows at the boat beside Zhou Geng.
The archers fell into the water one after another. They didn't know the power of Mingquan, and they suspected how weak the planks of their own boats were.
The last boat realized that something was wrong and gradually moved away, but it still did not escape the range of Mingquan Bow.Gong Cheng drew his bow, intending to sink the last boat. At this moment, Zhao Ling and Zhou Geng also leaned over. Although they both escaped the fatal wounds, there was almost no good flesh on their bodies, and the blood had already been stained red. He took off his clothes and held on with a single breath of strength.
Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief.
"A Ling!" Zhao Qi shouted, "Water surface, behind you!"
Zhao Ling relaxed, he didn't have the strength to turn around, but he heard the wind around his ears, the left side was stronger, the right side was weaker, and they all rubbed against his ears and entered the water.
On the water, there was a scream.
Fireworks danced on the big boat, and one shot after another shot into the sky. Zhao Ling knew that it was a message between Kuang Chengzong and the hidden guard. He looked at the bow of the big ship with dim eyes. The archer, shot the arrow that saved his life.
Gong Cheng picked up another arrow on the ground. There were countless beads of sweat on his forehead, and the pain from the arrow on his back was excruciating. Using the Mingquan bow took a lot of energy. With the last sword, all threats were removed, no... And that big ship... has masters on it...
He wanted to protect Zhao Ling, the crown prince, and Zhou Geng, but his hands were weak.
too tired……
Lan Yin, he seemed to see his favorite Lan Yin, put on a cloak he made by himself, kissed his cheek, and said angrily to him, "If Ah Ling doesn't come back, you don't want to come back either."
Our child is called Gong Si, okay?
it is good.
Is mushroom soup good?
Delicious.
I like you a little bit, and I will try my best to forget Brother Ling, Ah Cheng, are you willing to marry me?
I would.
Lan Yin, I'm sorry, I seem...really...can't go back...
Red sedan chairs, white horses parading through the streets, wedding candles in the bridal chamber, and growing old together.
Lan Yin...
"Ah Cheng," Zhao Qi felt that the person supporting him was leaning on him almost all his body, and his pulse was weak. He had been with Lin Yueru for a long time, and he knew more or less common sense of medical skills. , life is passing by quickly.
"Ah Cheng, Ah Cheng...you hold on!" Zhao Qi hugged the man with his eyes closed, "Ah Cheng...you hold on!"
Zhou Geng and Zhao Ling, hearing the urgent shouts in the cabin, shot arrows in their legs and feet, they couldn't stand up, they tried their best to crawl to the cabin, and saw Zhao Qi holding Gong Cheng in his arms, crying unrestrainedly into the dark.
Ah Cheng……
Zhao Ling's whole body was cold, and he suddenly remembered that it was Gong Cheng who blocked him at the first moment when the arrows rushed in, and it was Gong Cheng who blocked that arrow.If not, according to Gong Cheng's martial arts, how could the arrow hit the vital part of the heart?
He tried his best to support the pillar to get up, staggered towards it, and touched Gong Cheng's cold wrist.
Ah Cheng, wake up.
Ah Cheng, wake up!
Zhao Qi pushed Zhao Ling away violently, "Ah Cheng is dead, you killed him, this is clearly a trap, can't you see it? You helped Kuang Chengzong defeat Liang Jun, do you think he can protect you? He wants to Kill you, kill you!"
Zhao Ling touched his eyes, it was full of water.
"If you turned back early, if you handed over the jade seal early and turned back...you killed Ah Cheng, and Ah Cheng was about to get married and soon to be a father. Are you worthy of Master? Master, he only has Ah Cheng Son, how can you make him accept all this!"
Master...
The big ship approached slowly and finally stopped.
Kuang Chengzong jumped off the boat, seeing the mess on the boat, the boat that had just shot arrows approached, a few archers jumped off it, and the leader knelt down to salute.
"Who told you to do it!" Kuang Chengzong kicked over and trampled his kneeling subordinate on the ground.
"Young Master Ling suddenly ordered the boat to sail, and they said on board that they wanted to tie Young Master Zhao back to the Kingdom of Liang, my subordinate..." The subordinate replied vaguely.
"He's joking, can't you hear it? Didn't I say that you need to send me a letter before you do it? Didn't I say that you have to wait for me to send back the signal to you before you can do it? Come on, bring him back for me , Tortured, who is it! Who ordered him to do this!"
Kuang Chengzong was about to go crazy, he was the one who ordered people to watch Zhao Ling, if Zhao Ling insisted on leaving, he would rather kill him than allow him to leave, but he had to confirm it himself before doing anything!When he was on the tower, he saw three boats surrounding him, so he thought something was wrong, so he hurriedly boarded the boat and sailed towards the center of the lake, but he was blocked by successive codes, and no one listened to his order.
Fortunately, Zhao Ling is fine.
"Quick, stop the bleeding first!" He left in a hurry without an imperial doctor, but luckily some of his subordinates were skilled in medicine, Kuang Chengzong hurried towards Zhao Ling, "A Ling, I'm not..."
"You can't trust me." Zhao Ling looked at the sky expressionlessly, "I'm afraid I'll leave."
"I do not have……"
Kuang Chengzong didn't know how to explain it. The man belonged to him, and he was a secret guard who only obeyed his orders. It wasn't just that something happened that caused today's tragedy.
Zhao Ling turned his head to one side, it doesn't matter whether he has it or not.
A few days later, Zhao Ling heard the results of Kuang Chengzong's interrogation. The person who sent the signal was on a mission for the first time. He was eager for success and wanted credit. If you want to leave, send a signal to the three ships that have been prepared a long time ago, and shoot them with arrows.Afterwards, Kuang Chengzong sent a signal to stop. He knew he had done something wrong, and he was so nervous that he didn't see it.
Nonsense.
He wants a trial.
Kuang Chengzong didn't stop him. Since that day, Zhao Ling seemed to be a different person. The once arrogant and arrogant boy turned into a walking dead, eating, sleeping, eating, sleeping... the cycle repeated.
Ten days later, when Zhao Ling came out of the prison, the scorching sun above his head was so dazzling.
Once upon a time, the Xue family army fought a vigorous battle with the coalition army, and a soldier of the coalition army died on the battlefield.So many people died on the battlefield that no one even heeded his name.But the soldier has a childhood sweetheart, who returned to his hometown after the war, and was selected by accident to join the Kuang family's dark guard camp.
Then, he met Zhao Ling.He hated Zhao Ling to death, but the emperor was partial to him and obeyed.He thought, if Zhao Ling hadn't taken over the Xue family army back then, the Xue family army would not have rebelled, the war with the coalition forces would not have been fought, and his brother would not have died. It was Zhao Ling who killed his brother.
But he can't do anything until he gets the chance.He deliberately changed the code, and mistakenly transmitted Kuang Chengzong's original code to stop into a code to continue and not stop.
Under the torture, he recruited them all. Zhao Ling had never hated a person so much. He almost used all the criminal methods he could think of. It wasn't until he saw that person dying that he realized what a boring thing he was doing. .
With one blow, he chopped off the man's head.
The daily nightmare is still the shadow of Gong Cheng piercing his heart with an arrow.
Zhao Qi left with Gong Cheng's body, but forgot to take the Mingquan Bow.Zhao Ling hangs Mingquan Bow by the bedside, besides eating and sleeping, there is one more thing to do every day, looking at the bow in a daze.
Kuang Chengzong knocked on the door, Zhao Ling has been like this for two months, he really couldn't take it anymore.
"It's the fourth batch of assassins. I'm so annoying. Do you think I'm in prison for nothing? I also have to spend money to buy rice." Kuang Chengzong deliberately joked that these days Liang Guo's Jianghu organization Xuanwu Pavilion keeps sending assassins , tried to kill Zhao Ling, but was captured alive and locked up, "There is a woman who is pretty, but she bites a bit of Zhao Ling's bastard, she seems to know you very well, do you want to go and see?"
Zhao Ling raised his eyes and said hello.
This made Kuang Chengzong happy for a long time, and Zhao Ling finally responded to his words.
The prison in Qingji Kingdom is very narrow, and you can see the end after a few steps.
Zhao Ling wore a dark black cloak, which almost blended into the night.He saw the woman huddled in a corner of the prison, her body trembling involuntarily.Sure enough...it was Junior Sister.
slightly protruding belly,
"Open it." Zhao Ling asked the prison chief to open the lock, and retreated everyone.
"Zhao Jingming."
Zhao Ling didn't say anything, and knelt heavily on the ground.
Gao Lanyin stood up slowly. The person who claimed to be the emperor of Qingji Kingdom came to see her today, and explained to her for a long time. Zhao Ling didn't know at all, so he was the one to blame, and the assassination was also aimed at him. Zhao Ling couldn't be blamed for this matter. on the head.She didn't want to hear it, and no amount of reason could save his husband's life.
"Zhao Jingming, I hate you!"
Gao Lanyin slapped the kneeling man hard, "You are the one who caused my child to lose his father. Zhao Jingming, you will remember me forever, because of you, my child has no father."
Zhao Ling didn't say a word, and knelt quietly where he was.He took out the dagger from his pocket, held it up high, and handed it to Gao Lanyin.
For a long time, there was no movement.
Zhao Ling stood up, turned and left.Gao Lanyin turned around, the door was unlocked, and a longbow gleamed on the ground.
Mingquan Bow.
That's what she came for.
Emperor Liang abdicated, Zhao Qi ascended the throne, and the country was named Jing'an. This year was the first year of Jing'an.The queen of the palace became the empress dowager and vowed to destroy Qingji Kingdom.Zhao Ling's crimes have been exaggerated, and countless versions of the story of the traitor and traitor have been derived. He even tried to kill his elder brother, and then sent his army northward, using the Futian Formation and the Mandate of Heaven to bring disaster to all living beings.
Emperor Jing'an chose to remain silent, reviewing the memorials every day, and discussing the world's policies with the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.Luo Yi hurried back to Mobei, not knowing why.In addition to the Mobei Army, nearly a million troops from the Liang Kingdom gathered on the border of the Qingji Kingdom. As a friendly neighbor, the Yan Kingdom also provided food and grass as support.
Kuang Chengzong had only two options, escape or surrender.
"It would be great if there was Futian Formation." He complained to Zhao Ling, Zhao Ling often went back to the city tower recently, which gave him a little hope.
"Fu Tianzhen, I want to take it into the grave." Zhao Ling still said the same thing.
"Have you ever thought about what will happen in the future when the Qingji Kingdom is defeated? I did it to protect you and Ning Qiu Mocai." Kuang Chengzong didn't want to admit that he had made a wrong bet.
Zhao Ling played with the fan in his hand. It was a gift from Mr. Chu, and he kept it with him all the time, so he probably won't need it in the future.
"Zhao Ling, think of a way. I can do whatever I want, but what about the people in the city? If they treat us like Ningguo..."
"It's not the same," Zhao Ling threw the fan to Kuang Chengzong, "The great war consumed countless financial resources, Liang Guo's treasury has long been empty, and now it is all relying on the Wu family's reluctant support. You Qingji Kingdom did not contribute much in the coalition army, and the accumulated financial resources are still the same. It is strong, and it happens to be the most solid force for the revival of the Liang Kingdom. The business of the Qingji Kingdom is developed, and you have a large number of capable people, especially the business philosophy, which has always been weak and lacking in the Liang Kingdom. Zhao Qi is a wise king. I can see this, and he has not expressed his opinion on the matter of the Empress Dowager gathering troops to besiege Qingji. He is waiting for your decision. If you give him what he needs, he will definitely treat the people of Qingji kindly. On this point, I can tell you you promise."
"You asked me to surrender?"
"Instead of surviving in the cracks and being displaced, it is better to choose the strong to cling to. In the history of Qingji Kingdom, there are so many subjugated kings, and you are not one of them. Qingji surrendered, Kuang was a marquis, hereditary title, and you have the right to self-government in the fief. People's living habits will not be affected too much."
Kuang Chengzong opened his fan and covered his face, "Zhao Qi will really give Qingji Kingdom to me as a fief?"
"It's up to you to fight for it. You have more chips than that."
"What else?" Kuang Chengzong snapped his fingers, unable to count.
"I."
……
Zhao Ling heard the sound of a vase falling on the floor in Luo Yi's room, "Enough, first blame Zhan Luan, and then blame a dead man!"
Hey, he's seen that vase before, and it's worth a lot of money.
Originally, it had nothing to do with him, but since he aspired to be Princess Luo, he is the future owner of the Luo Palace. These are all his family property. It hurts me to be thrown at random by Gongsi kid!
Gong Si pushed the door open and ran out, completely ignoring Zhao Ling as if it were air, and disappeared like the wind on his horse.
"Luo Yi, do you want to chase me or not?"
Luo Yi blew a whistle, Xiao Sansan came out from nowhere, he got on the horse, stretched out his hand to hook Zhao Ling up, and Qian Lima ran away quickly.
