The happy life of the devil and the devil

In the early morning of the next day, on the north, east, and west sides of Hanshan City, the Beiliang army and the Suruo surrendered troops pressed forward across the board and stormed Hanshan City.

At night, all gates were lit with pine lamps, and the brilliance reached the sky, and the offensive continued all night.

After three days and three nights of repeated strangulation, the four gates of Hanshan City fell more than once.A section of the city wall on the northwest side collapsed, and the rest of the gates were also crumbling.

The water of the Linjin River passing through the city has turned a shocking red color when it flows out of the water gate in the southwest corner.

In the middle of the night on the third day, the Xuanyi Gate in the west of the city was quietly opened.Before the defenders had time to react, Bai Shanwei's cavalry swarmed in.

Soon, the city was on fire.The Chongren Gate in the east of the city, and the three gates of Yongding, Pingning, and Anfu in the north of the city were opened one by one amidst the sound of killing.

The capital of Suluo King fell in Yan.

Holding Little Eleven in his arms, he walked forward slowly, and when he passed King Suluo who was prostrate on the roadside and did not dare to look up, Ling Yucheng lowered his voice and asked the little disciple in his arms: "Do you understand why you can win so quickly?" ?"

"Someone offered the city."

"and then?"

"They..." The little guy's two slender eyebrows were tightly knit together, Ling Yucheng patted him lightly on the top of the head, he quickly let go, and returned to his dignified and immovable look: "I'm afraid that Master will slaughter the city. "

"Master won't do that."

"But they don't know!" The little guy's lips were slightly bent downwards, and he spoke in a low voice, even the last setback at the end of his tone was very similar to him, "Wenxi County was killed like that, that... what kind of prince?" As soon as they cry, even if they don't believe it, they don't dare to gamble!"

yes.Wenxi County was killed like that.Apart from calming the hearts of the soldiers and venting the grief and indignation of his comrades in the army, he naturally also had more far-reaching considerations.Otherwise, how can ordinary people deserve such a cruel hand?

Killing thousands of 800 people, he was still afraid of damaging his steel knife, because there was no place to sharpen it in the barren mountains and wild places.

"Then there are some people who will resist to the end." Ling Yucheng slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, with a half-smile, and slowly teased the little apprentice to talk.Sure enough, the little guy's cheeks puffed up immediately after being refuted by him like this, but he didn't dare to frown, he just thought hard with his pink face.Suddenly his eyes lit up: "The only ones who will resist to the end are loyal ministers!"

However, the loyal minister has been killed.

The Lu clan was uprooted.For the rest, even if there is someone who still has some blood in his heart, who can not keep silent when they see the end of the Lu family?

Those who are now in power in the Suluo Dynasty are greedy, vulgar and shallow, who only know how to use villain tricks to frame the Great Wall of the country.

And these people will never die for Su Luo Sheji.

In fact, the people who handed Ling Yucheng a secret letter three days ago, begging Kaesong to surrender to save his family's lives, were the same people who killed Lu Guangxian that day!

In front of me are rows of prostrate heads and backs. Those figures who were once infinitely noble, but now trembling in the dust and mud, are deeply engraved in Yuen Long's memory together with Ling Yucheng's earnest exhortation:

"Lang'er, you have to remember. There are many people who can be useful in this world, traitors, villains, common people... But, the one you can rely on most, will not betray you no matter how difficult the situation is, and you still have integrity." Loyal ministers and filial sons. Loyal ministers are not like traitors. Usually, they may not be considerate and considerate to make you happy, and they may even annoy you. However, if you can’t be close to a virtuous minister, you are far from a villain. The fate of Su Luo today will be that of any lord tomorrow. fate!"

The horse's hooves passed in turn in front of the King of Suluo, princes, clan nobles, and important civil and military officials who were prostrate on the ground, and finally stopped in front of the most magnificent and magnificent Dazheng Hall in the Suluo Palace.

Ling Yucheng did not occupy the palace.In fact, he chose a side hall to detain the King of Suluo, the concubine, and the prince's family. Instead, he took Xiao Shiyi and found a mansion outside the palace that looked impressive.

The first thing is that Fei Ge sends a letter to Yuan Shao, the overall situation has been settled, and he is asked to send someone to take over Su Luo.The second thing is to overturn the case of Lu's family.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether the verdict is reversed or not.When sending troops, Yuan Shao had asked him to bring an imperial decree, posthumously bestowing on Lu Guangxian the title of Duke of Shangzhu Kingdom and Chongguo, and ordering his young grandson to succeed him.As soon as the decree of the Shang Kingdom came down, how much sewage Su Luo had poured on the Lu family before, who dared to mention a word?

All Ling Yucheng had to do was to rebury Lu's family and offer sacrifices according to the ceremony.

Choosing a sunny day with a bright sun and high sky, the Suluo Imperial Army who had not been killed yet carried a long row of black lacquered coffins to the north of Suluo City, where the Lu family's ancestral graves were located.When they arrived at the cemetery, two completely naked people got out of the carriage, each held a spiritual tablet, and led the way to the front of the queue.

One is young, and described as immature; the other is tall, with a white cloth wrapped around her head, and no black hair can be seen.

It was the only two remaining members of the Lu family.

One is Lu Zhong, the young grandson who fled to Beiliang under the protection of the dead, and the other is the young daughter of Lu Guangxian, who married into the Suluo royal family as a princess. Lu Shao, who was forced to become a nun, became a nun.

To be honest, Lu Shao was able to save his life, thanks to Ling Yucheng's extremely fast marching troops.The nunnery was far away on the mountain outside the city, and when Suluo King remembered that there was this abolished empress, the soldiers had already arrived at the city, and even if he wanted to bring Lu's daughter into the capital, it was too late...

They entered the cemetery with the spirit tablets in their hands. After watching the catastrophe of extermination, all members of the Lu clan who were beheaded in Hanshan City were reburied. Afterwards, they burned incense and made drinks, and burst into tears.

Vengeance finally avenged.Although, the price of revenge is that the country that their family has been loyal to for generations will be destroyed in one day.

Along the numerous new graves, the two aunts and nephews who depended on each other hobbled along with wine bottles and joss sticks, crying with each step.

Watching them go away, Ling Yucheng waved his hand to signal the guards not to follow, he walked forward slowly with a wine jar, and sat cross-legged in front of Lu Guangxian's tomb.

"Come on, let's have a drink together."

In Hansan City in early autumn, the cloudless sky is a clear blue, so thick that it makes people dizzy.Ling Yucheng squinted his eyes under the golden sunlight, lowered his head to break open the mud seal, and filled the two porcelain bowls with wine one by one.

"General Lu, the first time I heard your name was when I first entered the palace to read with you. The governor of Luodiao, who became famous as a young man, and has been undefeated for decades since he joined the army... At that time, we all said that we can do things like Your life is worth it.”

"But that's just to say... Later, when I went out to lead troops to fight, I won, lost, and got injured. After watching the people around me die in battle, I realized how difficult it is for you. At that time, I still thought, Su Luo It is Yu Xia's vassal country, maybe one day when your country pays tribute to Beijing, I can see you and say to you in person—"

"I, Ling Yucheng, am no worse than you."

"Twenty years have passed in a flash, and at the end, when we really met, it turned out to be the current situation..."

The slender fingers held up the wine bowl, and the amber-colored wine swayed slightly on the wall of the white porcelain bowl, which was as crystal clear as a beautiful woman's skin.Ling Yucheng stared at the wine bowl for a moment, smiled at the familiar but unfamiliar reflection in the bowl, raised his head, and drank it all in one gulp.

"It's the first time we meet, let me do it first!"

Leaning down again, another bowl of fine wine was sprinkled into the moist new soil in front of the grave.

The cemetery is silent, and the mountain breeze is lingering.

This altar of wine is the imperial wine copied from the Suluo Palace, made with rouge rice from the imperial field outside the city and fresh mountain fruits harvested in autumn. It smells fragrant and tastes sweet.He poured down a full bowl in one breath, even though Ling Yucheng had a lot of alcohol, he was also slightly dizzy, propping his knees to calm down for a moment before leaning forward, lifting the wine jar again, and filling the two wine bowls in front of him in parallel.

"I really admire you. I heard from the guards around you that you had a chance to escape at that time. You were indeed seriously injured at that time, but it was not to the point where you couldn't support it. But you said, 'I will live up to you'. country', stop struggling and resisting, and die..."

"I understand what you mean. The Lu family has a high position and authority, but all the power comes from the lord... In that case, if you don't want to die, you can only usurp the throne, but once you usurp the throne, the country will be in chaos. If Beiliang takes advantage of the situation Attack, a traitor who usurps the throne and is unpopular will not be able to keep this country!"

He quietly closed his eyes, as if trying to resist another burst of dizziness, then picked up the wine bowl and took a big sip:

"But now, I have destroyed all the things you sacrificed your life to keep."

With a wave of his hand, a bowl full of fine wine was spilled on the ground.This time, the black soil did not immediately contain all the fine wine, and the fragrant liquid formed a small puddle in front of the grave, as if the owner of the grave was also angrily rejecting this bowl of royal wine offered by the enemy .

"Your country has been destroyed by me. Your lord, all the concubines, clans, important ministers and generals of Suluo, have been imprisoned by me in the palace. When the teacher returns, he will sacrifice his prisoners to the imperial court. This country will become In the part of Beiliang, you have guarded the national border for 40 years, and not long after, all the fortresses will be demolished."

"Do you know? When I came in, I hardly met any decent resistance. Those people who slandered your lord and killed you, as soon as the Beiliang army arrived, they couldn't wait to send me a letter, for I sacrificed my wealth and life to the city and surrendered..."

"If I knew it would turn out like this, maybe you would rather usurp the throne, live on, and protect your family?"

His voice was low and blank, as if he was talking to himself, or as if he was asking the opposite old general who had never met before and had been unilaterally in love with him for a long time.While speaking, he raised the wine bowl and gulped down the fine wine with a hasty movement that he had never seen in three years.

Drink a bowl, splash a bowl.Drink another bowl, pour another bowl.The smell of alcohol lingered in the autumn wind, and Ling Yucheng's cheeks gradually turned a tinge of red:

"It's a pity that you didn't keep what you wanted to keep. Your family was ransacked and beheaded, and all 71 members of the family escaped with only one grandson; your old family was either exiled, imprisoned, or simply beheaded. In the army. Even your daughter...your daughter who was registered as a queen was forced to become a nun."

"By the way, do you know who is the new queen of King Suluo? It is your daughter's dowry maid brought into the palace... On the seventh day after your daughter was abolished, I couldn't wait to appoint her personal maid! "

"Even your body was not properly buried. When I captured Hanshan City, your body was buried in the corner of the Li Palace, rolled up with a roll of mat, and it was only found by the palace staff. As for your family members ...Manchu even dug a hole in the mass grave with more than 500 servants and servants, threw them all in and buried them hastily. During the reburial, the bones and carrion were mixed together, and they were inseparable!"

Unknowingly, the wine jar, which was covered with dust nets, was already half empty for drinking and spilling.Ling Yucheng picked up the jar and poured wine into the bowl, but his fingers trembled so much that most of the wine spilled on the ground.He simply raised his arm, and with a bang, the entire wine jar fell on the pedestal, the fragments scattered, and the fine wine gurgled down along the scarlet writing on the tablet, winding around:

"But, I really envy you..."

The barely audible whispers floated together with the aroma of fine wine, and the autumn wind passed by, and disappeared without a trace in just a moment.

The author has something to say: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh finally I will write a paragraph I really want to write tomorrow!Excited!

But, I really envy you.

As I write this, I can't help crying.
