All the members are villains, and she just wants to show off when she is dressed as cannon fodder.

The sound in the hall instantly caught Pei Xiuyu's attention. She was about to rush into the hall, but she didn't notice that a scimitar was approaching behind her.

"Don't move, General Pei!"

The blade is made of black iron and is very thin, with a faint cold light. The handle is a golden dragon carving that extends along the back of the blade to the tip, looking extremely majestic and domineering.

There is only one such precious scimitar in the world.

"Smiling Scimitar..."

Pei Xiuyu turned around and said, "Cui Xiaoyi, does your master want to rebel?!"

Her loud voice instantly attracted the guards around her. A large number of soldiers suddenly poured in, all holding spears and pointing directly at Cui Xiaoyi, who was alone. The victory was decided.

Pei Xiuyu continued: "Don't put down your weapons yet!"

Cui Xiaoyi sneered, not paying attention to the situation in front of him, as if he had expected such a situation.

"General Pei, it's you who should put down your weapons!"

Sure enough, before the guard sergeants could stand still, a group of people suddenly appeared behind them, holding bows and arrows, standing in formation, and surrounding Cui Xiaoyi's sergeants within the range of the bows and arrows.

Pei Xiuyu's calm eyes trembled slightly, and she saw another person coming behind the archer, it was Jiang Yao, the former deputy general of King Lizhou!

Pei Xiuyu was shocked, "You are all here!

Okay, it looks like you really want to rebel! "

Jiang Yao stood tall and straight like a pine and cypress among the soldiers. Her black hair was tied up, and her stern face, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, exuded an aura of majesty.

"General Pei be careful!"

Jiang Yao stood still in front of the team, his eyes as bright as a torch, firm and bright, as if he could penetrate the deepest secrets in people's hearts.

"General Pei has always been stationed in the north, and now he is following Yuan Ruo south. What happened in Lizhou before that, General Pei must know better than us!"

Pei Xiuyu was stunned. Of course she knew what Jiang Yao was talking about. The last stone in his mind that suppressed that terrible suspicion was instantly shattered.

Just as there were rumors in the army, Yuan Ruo took advantage of the emptiness of Lizhou Palace to poison the old prince! A generation of hegemons fell.

If King Lizhou hadn't regarded him as his closest family member, how could he have taken advantage of it.

The person who can hurt you is always the person you trust!

Jiang Yao snorted coldly when he saw her like this, stopped talking to her, and shouted loudly to the soldiers who were surrounded.

"Yuan Ruo poisoned his uncle, he is worse than a beast! Most of you here are from the old Lizhou tribe. If you are still thinking about the kindness of the old prince at this moment, you should know what to do!"

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in confusion, not knowing whether to put down or raise the weapons in their hands.

Another group of people took Yuan Ruo's other cronies over, and when they saw Cui Xiaoyi and Jiang Yao, they understood what happened. Then someone yelled and cursed: "How presumptuous! We are all His Majesty's cronies. You bastards, do you want to rebel?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a chill in his throat, and a stream of blood spurted out instantly, leaving only Jiang Yao's cold voice in his ears.

"A villain who is greedy for profit is worse than a pig or a dog!"

Pei Xiuyu clenched her fists and remained silent.

Although her father has warned her to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic since she was a child, if the emperor is a coward and the general of the country fails, will she still be loyal? Still want to love?

She hesitated.

The door to the dormitory suddenly opened, and Qu Baiyu, covered in blood, walked out. Holding something in his hand, he dropped it at everyone's feet when he went out.

"I, the son of the Qu family, fought bloody battles on the front line for this foolish king, but in the end, my own father was poisoned on the sickbed.

General Pei, shouldn't I kill him?

If you were fighting on the front line and your biological father was treated in this way, how would you deal with it? ! "

Pei Xiuyu was silent, and Qu Baiyu continued: "I killed this faint king today, and it has nothing to do with you! If you are afraid, put down the knife and leave the camp. If you still remember my father's care for you, then pick it up Weapons are aimed directly at Shangjing! There is still a battle we have not finished fighting there!"

His robe was stained with bright red blood. The blood slid across his fair face and dripped down his chin to the skirt of his clothes. A blood-colored flower suddenly bloomed on the light-colored skirt. The aura around him was full of strange bewitchment, as if it were a demon from the abyss.

"...General, I will swear allegiance to King Lizhou to the death!"

A shout came from somewhere, and everyone raised their weapons one after another and shouted together: "Swear allegiance to King Lizhou to the death!"

"Swear loyalty to King Lizhou to the death!!"

In the hall, Wei Miaozhen was dressed in red and kneeling on the ground, as soft as if he had no bones. The light gauze on my body was rolled up by the wind, like a vivid picture, I felt pity for it.

With a creak, the palace door was opened again.

Wei Miaozhen quickly looked around and saw that it was Cui Xiaoyi who came in.

Wei Miaozhen lowered her eyes, with only disappointment on her delicate and beautiful face.

"He doesn't want to see me?"

Cui Xiaoyi put a bag of money in front of her without comment.

"Tonight, someone will pick up my sister from the back door. From now on, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, so my sister can take care of herself."

Wei Miaozhen lowered his head and smiled softly, with a trace of unnoticeable sadness and resentment flashing across his eyes.

"Take care of yourself...heh, go and answer him, I will understand."

Cui Xiaoyi frowned, but didn't know how to answer. When he turned around, he suddenly felt his waist move slightly, and his crescent knife was snatched away by Wei Miaozhen and placed across his neck.

Cui Xiaoyi was shocked and saw that Wei Miaozhen was already trying hard to wipe his neck. He stretched out his hand before he could stop it. As soon as his eyes blurred, Qu Baiyu flew over and snatched the crescent knife back.

A few drops of blood dripped on the floor. Cui Xiaoyi said in surprise: "Your Highness, you are injured!" After saying that, he tore off the corners of his clothes and wrapped them up for him.

Qu Baiyu didn't pay attention, looked at Wei Miaozhen who was already stunned on the ground, and asked indifferently: "Why is that so?"

Wei Miaozhen's tears instantly rolled down her cheeks, and her body became limp.

"Hunjun killed the old prince, which was a dereliction of duty by a subordinate. Since His Highness resents me for this, there is no need to tempt him, and he will directly use his plan to kill me. Just treat what I told Hunjun as true..."

Ripples gradually formed in her eyes, and she looked at Qu Baiyu with sadness.

"...I love you so much that I can't help but hate you so much that I did this on purpose. Your Highness, please kill me!"

She knelt there quietly, looking at Qu Baiyu expressionlessly. There was a trace of sadness and regret in her empty eyes, as if she was recalling the past that she could no longer go back to.

"...You think I want to eradicate the root cause?"

Qu Baiyu was indifferent for a moment and sighed softly.

"I don't resent you, nor do I test you. I, Qu Baiyu, have never been suspicious of my employees. It was you who doubted me."

Wei Miao's eyes suddenly shimmered, and he stood up and grabbed the corner of Qu Baiyu's clothes, like a child who got candy.

"Really? You don't blame me?"

Qu Baiyu said nothing and looked down at the corner of his clothes that Wei Miaozhen was grabbing. The indifferent expression is like a snow-capped mountain that has not changed for thousands of years, making people feel both noble and frightened.

Wei Miaozhen was slightly stagnant, and then he remembered that Qu Baiyu didn't like being touched by others.

She gradually loosened her grip on her clothes and knelt on the ground obediently, waiting for him to be released.

Qu Baiyu drove the money in front of her, and the voice as cold as a clear spring that had not changed for thousands of years sounded to her again.

"Since you know that you have neglected your duty, just do what Cui Xiaoyi said and take care of yourself."
