kill Qin Sheng

Chapter 52 Killing the Prince

"You and Kang Wang are getting closer and closer."

In the morning, Qin Sheng entered the palace with his father Qin Xi in a carriage, and he heard Qin Xi mention this matter without accident.

Qin Sheng didn't take it seriously, "What's wrong?"

"You want to keep him?"

What Qin Xi meant was that he didn't want to keep King Kang.At least that's what it looks like on the surface.

Qin Sheng's smile froze a bit.

"Don't father want to?" He said, "Although this is my selfishness. But for father, even... it is not necessary to kill parents and children."

"Trouble." Qin Xi said.

Qin Sheng rolled his eyelids and stopped speaking for King Kang.

The emperor lacked a son, but Qin Xi did not.A troublesome, swapped biological son brings far more trouble than emotional guilt.

Qin Sheng revealed a little wish to save King Kang.From Qin Xi's point of view, this may not be true. King Kang is dead, so there is no need to keep his fake son Qin Sheng. Qin Sheng's identity is far more embarrassing than King Kang.Although Qin Xi still treats Qin Sheng with the same father-son love for 20 years, but who knows that there is a bit of drama in it, or is it simply using Qin Sheng to blackmail the emperor?

In the face of Qin Xi's inflated ambitions, the secret between Qin Sheng and King Kang is not worth mentioning at all.

What's more, the day when Qin Xi is forced into the palace will not be very far away, either this month or a certain day in the next month.

In Zichen Palace, apart from the drunken emperor, there is also the prince holding a memorial and laughing forcefully.

The emperor sat in the main seat, and when he saw Qin Sheng, there was a trace of displeasure on his face, and he reprimanded him again in a few words.The emperor has been a little confused in the past two years, sometimes calling him for a meeting is really just a meeting.Qin Sheng couldn't tell what the emperor's feelings for him were, he didn't care whether it was a false win over or a bit of guilt and sincerity.All he cares about is when this farce ends.

Ren Xingluo's face was solemn, and he looked at Qin Sheng with complicated eyes.Qin Sheng couldn't figure out what the reason was, and it was hard to ask because there were too many idlers waiting.He said, "I'll be waiting for you at Kang Wang's Mansion."

Ren Xingluo was a little impatient, so he waved his hand and left.

Qin Sheng actually wanted to talk to him about a dream.

In the dream, Ren Xingluo was dressed in strange clothes, with short hair, standing on a high platform surrounded by lights.He looked into the distance, but Qin Sheng noticed that Ren Xingluo was staring at him.

He always felt that this dream was heralding something.

Qin Sheng also gradually realized that the distance between him and Ren Xingluo was farther than in his dream.What's more, neither side ever tried to do it.

King Kang's Mansion was established in Deweifang, and Qin Sheng must pass through Wuyi Lane, in front of the Qin Mansion, from the imperial palace to Deweifang in a carriage.His carriage was stopped at the entrance of the alley.

The voices of the coachman and his entourage were anxious and frightened: "Fifth Young Master...it's the official messenger and the Imperial Forest Army."

Qin Sheng's eyelids twitched, and he immediately understood that something had happened.

When he got out of the carriage, he saw a familiar captain sitting on the horse with haughty and cold eyes.Behind him, there are dozens of soldiers holding bows and arrows and long swords.If it was just to arrest Qin Sheng alone, there would be no need for such a large force.Obviously, Qin Sheng is not the only one to be arrested by this group of people.

The leader said: "Your Majesty has an order that the Qin family will be guilty of treason. Mr. Qin, why don't you go with the official?"

His smile was pale, and cold sweat was already seeping on his back, "What happened?"

Qin Sheng was locked in a single cell, and the guards were kind to him.He didn't see the rest of the Qin family, and the people who imprisoned him were very strict and refused to say a word.Qin Sheng only knew about the sensational events such as Qin Xi's assassination of the emperor and the death of the crown prince.He was very surprised, Qin Xi was not such a rough person in his eyes, so that the emperor caught him instead.

The guards' eyes were empty, like dead people walking one by one, and they hardly spoke a few words at the end of the day. In the dark cell, there was only the crackling sound of burning charcoal fire and the rotten and cold breath.Qin Sheng couldn't do other things, and every day passed very slowly.He sat in prison for a whole day, recalling the past every day, Qin Xi, the emperor, Ren Xingluo...

On the ninth day he already felt like he was going crazy.Fortunately, the emperor came to visit him in the cell in the afternoon, and Qin Sheng took a breath.

As before, the emperor really just came to meet him.

"Keep an eye on him, don't let anything happen to you." The emperor looked at him, but said to the guards kneeling on the ground, "Make offerings with delicious food and drink." After that, he shook his sleeves and was about to leave up.

"Your Majesty." Qin Sheng called to stop him, "How is the rest of the Qin family?" If Qin Xi is not dead, he would like to ask the emperor to let their father and son meet.

"The Qin family are thieves, they killed all of them a few days ago. No one will stay." The emperor said with a smile.

Qin Sheng was stunned, "They all..."

"Dead, beheading is a happy way to die." The emperor said, "There are more than 1000 people, and the Jinghe River is stained red with blood."

Qin Sheng was a little dazed and said powerlessly:

"do not talk……"

"As for you... I haven't made up my mind yet. I have thought about reinstating you as an official, but how long will you live after a hundred years? Xing Luo is not a good boy, but I don't have any other sons. .”

"Don't kill him! He doesn't know anything."

"But I know the truth. Although he is also pitiful, it is impossible for me not to anger him. Do you know that King Kang is now a sweet potato—the emperor's only son, and he has no brothers. He is the crown prince." It's a certainty, but unfortunately, he is dying of illness."

"what have you done?"

"I didn't do anything." The emperor sighed, "I'm very embarrassed. I have two sons. One is in prison, and the other is dying."

Four days later, King Kang, who was dying of illness, came to Qin Sheng's cell.

He had lost a lot of weight, his eyes were tired and dull under his woolen hat, and there was almost no flesh in his cheeks.Huang Liang, who was beside him, carefully supported him, and beckoned the guards to bring a stool.

"My feet are a little weak, I can't stand." Ren Xingluo weakly grasped the iron fence separating the two of them, and it was crumbling until Huang Liang moved a stool. He took a breath and sat down, laughing again, " You look so embarrassing."

Qin Sheng was also haggard, his clothes were dirty, his beard was unshaven, and he didn't have the demeanor of a noble son in the past.

"A person who is about to die, why do you care about these descriptions." Qin Sheng said, "What are you doing here?"

"The emperor was half-hearted, and asked me to catch up with you, and asked me to make a decision."

"It doesn't sound like the two are in conflict."

"It's easy to say, the main thing is to cut the mess quickly."

Ren Xingluo said seriously, "I'll bring you a glass of wine. Officer, please open the door."

The door was opened with a key.Ren Xingluo walked into the cell, and the strange eunuch who had been standing behind Ren Xingluo also followed.

Only then did Qin Sheng see clearly that he was holding a tray in his hand——

Qin Sheng's breathing was stagnant.

"Jiujiu." Qin Sheng couldn't help laughing out loud, "Whose idea is this, you? Or the emperor?"

Ren Xingluo coughed twice, "What the emperor and I mean. By the way, the Tian family has no father and son. I need to explain. I probably won't be able to survive after you drink this glass of wine. You and I are hidden dangers. And the emperor is still young, there may still be people in the harem who can give birth..."

"You know? No wonder the emperor didn't keep you."

Qin Sheng took the wine glass.

He had once imagined the ending of the Qin family's ruin and death, so now that he was given death, he didn't feel the slightest fear.However, the executioner was Kang Wang Ren Xingluo, who had an affair with him, and he never dreamed about it.

Whether he treats Ren Xingluo well or Ren Xingluo treats him well, has there ever been any sincerity in these months of hypocrisy and deception?

With a little more time, maybe...

Qin Sheng looked at the emaciated Ren Xingluo, feeling bitter in his heart.

He said, "Actually, I have always wanted to ask, why do you insist on killing me?"

Ren Xingluo stared at him, but seemed to be looking further away, "That's another story."

"I don't know you at all, and neither do you to me. But... never mind."

Qin Sheng seemed a little tired, he sighed.

but……

Ren Xingluo couldn't help but mourn for a while.He understood what Qin Sheng was regretting. A flower grew from hatred and conspiracy, but it was about to wither before it bloomed.

"Stop talking..." Ren Xingluo's eyes seemed to be clouded, "I don't want to hear it."

Qin Sheng closed his eyes in silence, and drank the wine in one gulp.

The cold wine was poured into the throat, but it was as hot as fire, burning the tongue and throat.Qin Sheng knelt on the ground in pain, he panted and opened his eyes, only to see that the person in front of him had already fallen to the ground, with a glass of wine in his hand.Huang Liang was terrified and screamed for the imperial physician, while all the guards surrounded him in a panic, looking at each other.

Qin Sheng was startled, thinking that the current situation is still unstable, how could the emperor kill his only son at such a time?Or, Ren Xingluo simply committed suicide.

"You...the emperor didn't intend to kill you, did he?" Qin Sheng laughed hoarsely, "You want to die for love?"

Ren Xingluo whispered, "I owe you my life..."

His consciousness gradually became blurred, and before he completely fell into death, he heard Qin Sheng say:

"Give me back in the next life."
