Quick Time Travel: My 72 Girlfriend
Chapter 124
Probably the most important thing in the Changqing Palace is wine, and the most important thing is people who can drink.
As soon as the lights came on, the ministers who had been entertained by the emperor filed into the palace gate one by one, and after entering the main hall, they gathered together in twos and threes to greet each other.
Chu Zeshuoxi was the first one to arrive. He was already sitting on the seat with his own nameplate, sipping wine glass after glass, watching the courtiers in the hall wearing sable tail hats and representing their ranks complimenting each other. .
Since ancient times, civil servants have not been with military generals, especially in this hall.
Although the emperor admired the "dominant" imperial art when he was young, he enjoyed Taoism and Confucianism in his later years. Therefore, most of the people who were invited to the banquet were alchemists and civil servants, but few who had actually bloodied the battlefield were found.
Although her former servant of the imperial court was regarded as a civil servant, she was still the descendant of Ding Guogong, the general of Zhenguo. In the eyes of outsiders, she who brought troops and horses to capture King Liuhuang this time is still a first-rate general.
Because of this, no one came to chat with her, only a few accompanying palace servants stood around her.
With no one bothering her ears, she was also very happy, and poured wine for herself one by one, and then drank it down.
Just drinking and drinking, when looking at the courtiers gathering and laughing over there, I can't help feeling sad in my heart.
In my memory, it was also the same kind of palace banquet. She was always dragged by the wine jar little general Huo to the corner of the palace. When discussing current affairs, General Li was surrounded by a group of adults with good women to talk about matchmaking. Seeing Mr. Su’s calm expression while those old-fashioned old men were so angry that they blushed and their necks were thick, General Li couldn’t help but feel embarrassed when he avoided those adults. Laughing out loud, the prince who provoked Zheng Wenya to drink had to come over to stop them, but in the end they were always brought along and made fun of them together.
Those people's smiling faces and words are still in front of their eyes. In the blink of an eye, she is the only one left in this huge palace.
Drunkly shaking the wine glass in his hand, seeing the mellow wine rippling inside, Chu Zeshuo smiled, "Ha, Mr. Huo, look, after you leave, all these wines will be mine , why didn't you come and snatch it from me?"
The hall gradually became noisy, but no one could hear her voice.
Chu Zeshuo frowned, and said with some doubts, "You said, I am already weak, can Mr. Su's salary buy all the boots in Chang'an City? General Li, I heard that he married You Xian in Beidi As for the princess of the king, she can be regarded as married. That guy... He clearly agreed to let me hug his child when he was born, but in autumn, Beidi may come to grab food again. I don’t care about raising the country’s food, but if the children of other Beidihu people grow up, they will just be tigers and wolves like their father and brother... From this point of view, I am afraid that I will never see General Li’s children grow up in this life. What does it look like... Fortunately, I have hugged the children of His Highness the Crown Prince, or the three grandchildren of the emperor... um..."
When she was talking, she was a little dizzy again, but she couldn't speak, and she felt uncomfortable as if blocked by a stone. Knowing that no one listened to her, she kept talking, "Well, those three grandsons and the prince Concubine is somewhat similar, they are gentle and intelligent children... It's a pity... It's a pity..."
It's a pity that those children, along with His Royal Highness, died in the disaster of witchcraft.
Bai Yuncanggou is impermanent, who can be blamed for these things?
With a wry smile, Chu Zeshuo drank himself another glass of wine.
Ah, it is true that wine can relieve worries, otherwise how could she see Qi Yang in front of him?
With a faint smile, Chu Ze Shuo tilted his head, raised his wine glass to the man, "Wang, this wine tastes good, would you like a glass?"
The person in front of him didn't move at all, he just looked at her without changing his expression.
Chu Zeshuoxi took it for granted that she was hallucinating from drinking too much, ignored her, picked up the silver pot, and poured wine again.
"Master Chu Ze wants to lose his composure in front of the palace?"
Hearing the words, Chu Zeshuo rolled his eyes and smiled, "King Liuhuang should pay attention to his identity, isn't there any reason for the emperor's concubine to hold on to the hands of his subjects?"
When Qi Yang heard this, his eyebrows twitched, and the eyes of the ministers behind him were like thorns on her body. There was some noise in the hall, but after she came in, those voices suddenly disappeared as if they had disappeared.
She is a captive Liuhuang King, or a foreigner who is about to be made a concubine by the Emperor of Han, and she really needs attention.
With a downcast face and a cold look at her, Qi Yang slowly let go of the hand that was holding her, sighed indistinctly, and before the Emperor Han arrived in the palace, he walked to his seat and sat down, watching Chu Zeshuo, who kept grabbing the flagon over there, didn't say a word.
Seeing this, Chu Zeshuo sneered, turned his head and continued to drink his wine.
In the end, she was really the only one left looking at the old red flowers, remembering.
Qi Yang was brought into this hall by the Yellow Gate in the palace. After all, she is still a king and has not yet been canonized by the Emperor of Han. Yu Li, she should not appear in this hall at the same time as the Emperor of Han. Therefore, she is One of them went straight to the banquet in a soft sedan chair.
When she arrived, the ministers had already arrived, and a group of court officials crowded together in one place, but she still saw Chu Zeshuoxi who was pouring herself desperately over there alone at a glance.
According to the results of the investigation by her spies, Chu Zeshuoxi's alcohol tolerance is not good. It can be said that pouring three drinks is not too much.
But she just wanted to embarrass herself and do things she couldn't do.
As soon as Qi Yang sat down, the Emperor of Han was supported by the eunuchs from the Yellow Gate on both sides, and he appeared in the palace wearing the imperial robes and crowns.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly bowed down and said, "Long live my emperor."
I haven't seen the Emperor of Han for a long time, and his complexion has deteriorated a lot. Qi Yang knelt in front of the group of ministers, and secretly looked at the complexion of the high-ranking man. It was sallow and blue, and the old look on his face was much heavier. Sure enough, the information she inquired about was correct. The emperor of the Han Dynasty was really indulging in elixir and suffering from erysipelas.
"Stay flat, give me a seat." Enjoying the feeling of being hugged, the emperor on the high seat was very satisfied and ordered.
Everyone got their fates and hurriedly got up and returned to their seats. The emperor glanced at Qi Yang, who was sitting at the head of the hall with a downcast face. He lowered his head and watched Qi Yang whisper a few words to the emperor. The more he spoke, the more the emperor's face became more and more grim. There is some fire coming out.
Even Chu Zeshuo could guess without listening to the voice, the Huangmen must have witnessed the scene where she and Qi Yang were ambiguous just now, in order to avenge Qi Yang's contempt before, maliciously whispering in the emperor's ear that the relationship between the two of them is now It was still unclear and ambiguous, which made the emperor angry.
She has been a servant for nearly eight years, and it's not for nothing.
Jealousy, especially the jealousy that stems from a man's possessiveness towards a woman, has never been lost to any woman who has gone mad because of jealousy.
"I've heard that Chu Ze's Aiqing has the unique skill of controlling beasts, but I've never seen Aiqing perform it. It's a rare day today. Can Aiqing offer a skill to help the other Aiqings enjoy themselves?"
Chu Zeshuoxi put down the silver cup in his hand and forced himself to show surprise at the right time. When he raised his eyes, he saw the emperor's angry face hidden under the crown and his veined hands clutching the dragon chair.
Seeing that Chu Zeshuo looked up in surprise, the emperor's heart burned a little bit, but he still insisted, "A few days ago, my personal guards hunted two tigers, and I wanted to starve them for a few days before taming them." Yes, this trouble is saved now, isn’t Aiqing very good at taming beasts? If so, let’s tame these two tigers for me.”
Speaking of taming the tiger, I'm afraid this is just an excuse to get rid of her. After all, if she tames the beast improperly, she will become the tiger's meal, otherwise, she will be punished for spoiling the interest of the emperor and the adults present.
Anyway, she is wrong no matter what, it is better to pretend not to hear.
Thinking about it, Chu Zeshuo pursed his lips and didn't answer. Seeing her like this, the emperor became more and more angry, and his voice raised a lot, "It seems that Ai Qing doesn't want to show her stunts in front of all Ai Qing, come—— "
The members of the Huangmen Palace on both sides stepped forward together, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"
"I heard that Chu Ze's Aiqing possessed amazing skills since she was a child, but Aiqing entered the palace as a servant when she was young. I'm afraid that Aiqing's two close relatives don't know that Aiqing has such a magical skill. Go, get the old lady and Madam, please come here too, let them have a good look at how promising the children they raise are!"
"promise."
Hearing the order, the orderly wife hurriedly retreated, Chu Zeshuo looked at their leaving figures, felt anxious, and said loudly, "Wait a minute, Your Majesty, I—"
The emperor sneered, "Master Chu Ze, you are not joking, please don't make it difficult for me."
Chu Zeshuo was startled, a guard had already pushed the cage with two spotted tigers over, and under the signal of the emperor's eyes, the head of the Huangmen twisted the pottery plate with longevity fruit beside the dragon chair, and suddenly, the palace was in full swing. A place in the center that can accommodate four horses galloping side by side is recessed by two feet, forming a closed boxy racetrack-like place.
The ministers from both sides who came to the banquet were all stunned when they saw this situation, even Chu Ze Shuoxi was too shocked to speak. At this moment, her grandmother and mother were brought to the dragon seat, Looking at his child standing under the steps, he looked at the emperor suspiciously, not knowing what happened.
"Old madam, madam, you have lived in the deep palace for a long time, I'm afraid you don't know how powerful the children you raise are."
Pointing to the recessed place, he smiled, but what the emperor said was not warm, "Come on, push the two ladies away together, open the tiger's cage, and push in too. I want to see it today, Chu Ze Is Aiqing's ability to control beasts a false claim that she was able to save her own relatives from beasts?"
When the ministers on both sides heard this, they looked at each other in fright. Ever since the crown prince was unjustly killed by the emperor, the emperor loved these bloody games very much. It stands to reason that the Duke of Ding threw all his blood for Han, and their purpose as ministers is to persuade His Majesty His subordinates are merciful, but the current His Majesty is bloodthirsty, if he persuades him, he may lose his wealth and life...
Thinking about this level, the hall full of ministers who read benevolence, righteousness, propriety and filial piety watched helplessly as the emperor they served wanted to kill loyal ministers' wives and children, but no one dared to speak up.
Chu Zeshuo looked at it, and the blood in his heart completely cooled down.
What is the point of nostalgia for such a minister of the Han Dynasty who is wise and safe, and such an emperor who is bloodthirsty and shameless?
When he was sad, the guards had already placed the two tigers in the middle of the stage. Seeing that the palace guards had imprisoned her grandmother and mother, they also pushed them inside, but Qi Yang, whose Highness had been silent all this time, went straight to the two palace guards, grabbed the palace guards and dragged her away. The hands of the two old ladies frowned and said, "Wait a minute."
Seeing this, the emperor became even more displeased, "King Liuhuang, are you questioning my decision?"
"It's not..." Qi Yang turned around and said with a light smile, "It's just that the two old ladies are old, it would be bad if they were hit by a beast, but Qi Yang is young, so he is not afraid of these things, why don't His Majesty ask Qi Yang to do it for him? ?”
The old emperor heard the words, and Yijia was sure that she and Chu Zeshuoxi secretly communicated with each other for the song, and when she was about to question the crime, the ministers who didn't understand the emperor's intentions thought they had found a good solution. After looking at each other, they all bowed down and said, "What King Liuhuang said is very true, may Your Majesty accept it."
Seeing this, the Emperor of Han, who was unable to get off the tiger, his eyes darkened, "Zuzao."
Only then did Qi Yang let go of the palace man's hand, straightened his clothes, and calmly walked into the pit by himself.
The scheming emperor glanced at the other protagonist of the incident, Chu Zeshuoxi, who was looking at the back of King Liuhuang who was slowly stepping into the tiger's pit, with a calm expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
When she stood firm, the very hungry tigers at the bottom of the pit smelled the breath of a living person, opened their bloody mouths with saliva flowing all over the ground, and rushed towards her, with the tail on the left like a straight whip, and the tiger on the right. A claw with a sharp edge, coming menacingly, as if Qi Yang will be buried in the next moment.
Chu Zeshuo looked at the right time, and hurriedly blew the prepared bone flute. The melodious sound of the flute came from the jade-like bone flute. The two beasts seemed to be possessed by demons, and their raised forelimbs quickly lowered. The tiger's mouth, which was wide open and sharp-toothed, slowly closed, and the two white tigers with eye-catching stripes were as docile as domestic cats at the moment. They were prostrated at Qi Yang's feet together, with brown eyes of the same color as King Liuhuang's. He narrowed his eyes and used his sharp claws to comb his hair from time to time, completely different from the vicious look just now.
Before everyone at the scene could react, Chu Zeshuo quickly blew a cut-off note, thinking to control the movements of the two tigers so that they would not hurt anyone when they calmed down, but when he slipped out of the corner of his eye, he saw the emperor's contempt and hatred Smiling, she felt a chill in her heart, and subconsciously ran towards Qi Yang, shouting as she ran, "King, run!"
Qi Yang was taken aback when he heard the words, and when he looked closely, he saw two daggers flying over from nowhere, and they were stabbing impartially into the buttocks of the two tigers that had calmed down. The two tigers struggled to escape from the control of the sound of the flute. He came out, roared, and rushed towards her like crazy.
The distance between the two beasts was too close, Qi Yang frowned, and when he was thinking how to dodge, Chu Zeshuoxi, who had already run to her side, had already pushed her past, picked up the bone flute himself, and blocked the attack for her. attack.
"what--"
After a scream, Qi Yang, who was pushed to the ground, raised his head in shock, and saw Chu Zeshuoxi's pale complexion, closed eyes and clenched teeth. A hole the size of a bowl was constantly protruding from her right shoulder. There were drops of blood, and her bloody arm, which was torn off, was now being held in the mouth by two fierce tigers vying for each other.
After the death-like silence in the main hall, Chu Ze Shuoxi's mother, who was ordered by the emperor to watch, was the first to react, crying, "Suoxi—"
Her unfinished words were stuck in her throat, her eyes were wide open, and she looked at the sharp knife pierced through her heart without a drop of blood in disbelief.
——It was the masterpiece of the emperor who descended from the Dragon Throne at some unknown time.
Chu Zeshuoxi's elderly grandmother witnessed the death of her daughter-in-law before she could recover from the pain of her granddaughter's broken arm. She felt a pain in her heart, looked at the expressionless emperor, and trembled. Said, "Your Majesty, Dingguo—"
Without a trace of hesitation, he stabbed the sharp knife at the old man who had half of his body buried in the ground, "If you want to blame, blame your grandson for being too good-looking, and blame him for not supporting me to make Mrs. Li's son the crown prince. Just want to make an example to the monkeys."
The two corpses fell on the hall without breath.
The hall became more and more quiet, like a cemetery at night.
Enduring the pain, Chu Zeshuoxi opened his eyes and saw the scene where his only surviving relative died tragically under the sword of the emperor.
As if the last string that had been pulling on his heart had finally broken, Chu Zeshuo let go of his voice and laughed wildly, "Liu Wu, you are the one who deceived others too much, so don't blame me, Chu Zeshuo, for disregarding the interests of the monarch and his subjects." righteous!"
"Chu Zeshuo, you traitor, you dare to call me by my name, come here, let me hack her to death!"
"Rush forward and eat that stupid king for me!"
Picking up the bone flute with his left hand, Chu Zeshuo's eyes were bloodshot, and he played the bone flute recklessly. The two tigers who were still fighting for her broken arm became hysterical, and dropped the broken arm that had been gnawed to pieces. A few pans rushed out, caught people and bit them.
The Chang'an guards guarding outside rushed in after hearing the emperor's order, but they were no match for the two mad beasts. They grabbed a man and bit off his throat. After a while, there were layers of corpses on the hall.
Seeing this, the leader of Chang'an Guard hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and escort! Escort!"
There was a fluttering sound, and a group of blood crows flew in from nowhere, aiming at those Chang'an guards and pecking them down. In an instant, a group of well-trained Chang'an guards were in chaos, fighting with those blood crows without taking care of themselves
The civil servants in the palace were already scared and hid under the table, and the Huangmen palace people also ran away in panic, supporting the emperor and trying to escape to the harem. Some Chang'an guards who were lucky enough to escape from the blood crow also hurriedly stood in front. There are so many people, but they can't stop the white tiger who is getting more and more ferocious after being stabbed and hurt at both ends.
Several scissors came forward, and after killing all the people protecting the emperor, under the guidance of Chu Zeshuoxi's flute, one bit the leg of the frightened emperor, the other bit the hand, and the other bit the hand. He pulled hard, and amidst screams, he tore off the emperor's hands and feet.
Chu Zeshuoxi was still puzzled, and made a tiger bite tightly from the wound. A tiger bit his cheek, chewing bit by bit, until the white bones appeared on his cheeks, and his waist Chu Zeshuoxi sneered when his flesh and blood were eaten up, dragging his black intestines and liver all over the floor, "Take out his heart, I want to see if it's black!"
Hearing the words, the two white tigers moved their furry ears with normal human nature. One of the tiger's forelegs threw itself on the emperor who was writhing in pain and screaming to hold him down, and the other bent its claws and raised it high With a whistling sound, it pierced through his chest, grabbed his heart violently, pulled out his heart, and threw it on the ground.
The black and red heart was still beating, but the emperor who was surrounded by two fierce tigers finally closed his eyes.
Chu Zeshuo heaved a sigh of relief, his face softened a lot, he smiled lightly, and said to the two white tigers, "Good boy, get some food, and escape from here, along the way you were hunted, escape get out."
Hearing the words, the two white tigers dragged the two dead bodies obediently. After looking at Chu Zeshuoxi with nostalgia, they quickly left the hall full of dead bodies.
Those Chang'an guards and ministers were still fighting with a group of blood crows, so they couldn't take care of them for a while.Chu Zeshuoxi put down the bone flute on his lips, turned around and looked at Qi Yang who was staring at her silently on the ground, and smiled wryly, "Shuoxi is really sorry for ruining the king's entry into the palace."
"It's okay, Gu never thought that Gu would be alive after tonight."
There was a bright smile in King Liuhuang's brown eyes, "Besides, I have seen Lord Chu Ze's unique skills today, even if I die alone, it will be worth it."
Eyelids drooping slightly, Chu Zeshuo approached her, squatted down slowly, and supported her with his remaining left arm.
There is a clear scent of saffron flowers permeating around them.
Qi Yang couldn't help laughing, "Gu thought that only Gu likes such a clean way of death."
Chu Zeshuoxi also laughed, "If Wang hadn't taken the old man's sachet back then, Shuoxi wouldn't have known that the fragrant ling flower that Liuhuang people love is actually used for such a purpose."
The ancient Liuhuang people, before the war, would mash the highly poisonous Xianglinghua into juice and apply it all over their lips. After being captured by the enemy, they would directly bite their lips, and the venom applied on their lips would Invade people's bodies, let Liuhuang people die with dignity.
Qi Yang chuckled, "This is the soul of Liuhuang."
"Then today, let Shuoxi complete the final step of becoming Liu Huanghun for the king."
With a murmur, Chu Zeshuo closed his eyes, held her hand tightly, slowly moved his lips closer to her, and kissed her.
A faint smell of blood echoed between each other's lips and teeth, Qi Yang opened his eyes with complex expressions, and the blood and tears streaming down Chu Zeshuoxi's delicate face dripped onto her skirt that had already been dyed bright red, and disappeared without a sound. .
"Farewell, King Liuhuang."
As soon as the lights came on, the ministers who had been entertained by the emperor filed into the palace gate one by one, and after entering the main hall, they gathered together in twos and threes to greet each other.
Chu Zeshuoxi was the first one to arrive. He was already sitting on the seat with his own nameplate, sipping wine glass after glass, watching the courtiers in the hall wearing sable tail hats and representing their ranks complimenting each other. .

When the ministers on both sides heard this, they looked at each other in fright. Ever since the crown prince was unjustly killed by the emperor, the emperor loved these bloody games very much. It stands to reason that the Duke of Ding threw all his blood for Han, and their purpose as ministers is to persuade His Majesty His subordinates are merciful, but the current His Majesty is bloodthirsty, if he persuades him, he may lose his wealth and life...
Thinking about this level, the hall full of ministers who read benevolence, righteousness, propriety and filial piety watched helplessly as the emperor they served wanted to kill loyal ministers' wives and children, but no one dared to speak up.
Chu Zeshuo looked at it, and the blood in his heart completely cooled down.
What is the point of nostalgia for such a minister of the Han Dynasty who is wise and safe, and such an emperor who is bloodthirsty and shameless?
When he was sad, the guards had already placed the two tigers in the middle of the stage. Seeing that the palace guards had imprisoned her grandmother and mother, they also pushed them inside, but Qi Yang, whose Highness had been silent all this time, went straight to the two palace guards, grabbed the palace guards and dragged her away. The hands of the two old ladies frowned and said, "Wait a minute."
Seeing this, the emperor became even more displeased, "King Liuhuang, are you questioning my decision?"
"It's not..." Qi Yang turned around and said with a light smile, "It's just that the two old ladies are old, it would be bad if they were hit by a beast, but Qi Yang is young, so he is not afraid of these things, why don't His Majesty ask Qi Yang to do it for him? ?”
The old emperor heard the words, and Yijia was sure that she and Chu Zeshuoxi secretly communicated with each other for the song, and when she was about to question the crime, the ministers who didn't understand the emperor's intentions thought they had found a good solution. After looking at each other, they all bowed down and said, "What King Liuhuang said is very true, may Your Majesty accept it."
Seeing this, the Emperor of Han, who was unable to get off the tiger, his eyes darkened, "Zuzao."
Only then did Qi Yang let go of the palace man's hand, straightened his clothes, and calmly walked into the pit by himself.
The scheming emperor glanced at the other protagonist of the incident, Chu Zeshuoxi, who was looking at the back of King Liuhuang who was slowly stepping into the tiger's pit, with a calm expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
When she stood firm, the very hungry tigers at the bottom of the pit smelled the breath of a living person, opened their bloody mouths with saliva flowing all over the ground, and rushed towards her, with the tail on the left like a straight whip, and the tiger on the right. A claw with a sharp edge, coming menacingly, as if Qi Yang will be buried in the next moment.
Chu Zeshuo looked at the right time, and hurriedly blew the prepared bone flute. The melodious sound of the flute came from the jade-like bone flute. The two beasts seemed to be possessed by demons, and their raised forelimbs quickly lowered. The tiger's mouth, which was wide open and sharp-toothed, slowly closed, and the two white tigers with eye-catching stripes were as docile as domestic cats at the moment. They were prostrated at Qi Yang's feet together, with brown eyes of the same color as King Liuhuang's. He narrowed his eyes and used his sharp claws to comb his hair from time to time, completely different from the vicious look just now.
Before everyone at the scene could react, Chu Zeshuo quickly blew a cut-off note, thinking to control the movements of the two tigers so that they would not hurt anyone when they calmed down, but when he slipped out of the corner of his eye, he saw the emperor's contempt and hatred Smiling, she felt a chill in her heart, and subconsciously ran towards Qi Yang, shouting as she ran, "King, run!"
Qi Yang was taken aback when he heard the words, and when he looked closely, he saw two daggers flying over from nowhere, and they were stabbing impartially into the buttocks of the two tigers that had calmed down. The two tigers struggled to escape from the control of the sound of the flute. He came out, roared, and rushed towards her like crazy.
The distance between the two beasts was too close, Qi Yang frowned, and when he was thinking how to dodge, Chu Zeshuoxi, who had already run to her side, had already pushed her past, picked up the bone flute himself, and blocked the attack for her. attack.
"what--"
After a scream, Qi Yang, who was pushed to the ground, raised his head in shock, and saw Chu Zeshuoxi's pale complexion, closed eyes and clenched teeth. A hole the size of a bowl was constantly protruding from her right shoulder. There were drops of blood, and her bloody arm, which was torn off, was now being held in the mouth by two fierce tigers vying for each other.
After the death-like silence in the main hall, Chu Ze Shuoxi's mother, who was ordered by the emperor to watch, was the first to react, crying, "Suoxi—"
Her unfinished words were stuck in her throat, her eyes were wide open, and she looked at the sharp knife pierced through her heart without a drop of blood in disbelief.
——It was the masterpiece of the emperor who descended from the Dragon Throne at some unknown time.
Chu Zeshuoxi's elderly grandmother witnessed the death of her daughter-in-law before she could recover from the pain of her granddaughter's broken arm. She felt a pain in her heart, looked at the expressionless emperor, and trembled. Said, "Your Majesty, Dingguo—"
Without a trace of hesitation, he stabbed the sharp knife at the old man who had half of his body buried in the ground, "If you want to blame, blame your grandson for being too good-looking, and blame him for not supporting me to make Mrs. Li's son the crown prince. Just want to make an example to the monkeys."
The two corpses fell on the hall without breath.
The hall became more and more quiet, like a cemetery at night.
Enduring the pain, Chu Zeshuoxi opened his eyes and saw the scene where his only surviving relative died tragically under the sword of the emperor.
As if the last string that had been pulling on his heart had finally broken, Chu Zeshuo let go of his voice and laughed wildly, "Liu Wu, you are the one who deceived others too much, so don't blame me, Chu Zeshuo, for disregarding the interests of the monarch and his subjects." righteous!"
"Chu Zeshuo, you traitor, you dare to call me by my name, come here, let me hack her to death!"
"Rush forward and eat that stupid king for me!"
Picking up the bone flute with his left hand, Chu Zeshuo's eyes were bloodshot, and he played the bone flute recklessly. The two tigers who were still fighting for her broken arm became hysterical, and dropped the broken arm that had been gnawed to pieces. A few pans rushed out, caught people and bit them.
The Chang'an guards guarding outside rushed in after hearing the emperor's order, but they were no match for the two mad beasts. They grabbed a man and bit off his throat. After a while, there were layers of corpses on the hall.
Seeing this, the leader of Chang'an Guard hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and escort! Escort!"
There was a fluttering sound, and a group of blood crows flew in from nowhere, aiming at those Chang'an guards and pecking them down. In an instant, a group of well-trained Chang'an guards were in chaos, fighting with those blood crows without taking care of themselves
The civil servants in the palace were already scared and hid under the table, and the Huangmen palace people also ran away in panic, supporting the emperor and trying to escape to the harem. Some Chang'an guards who were lucky enough to escape from the blood crow also hurriedly stood in front. There are so many people, but they can't stop the white tiger who is getting more and more ferocious after being stabbed and hurt at both ends.
Several scissors came forward, and after killing all the people protecting the emperor, under the guidance of Chu Zeshuoxi's flute, one bit the leg of the frightened emperor, the other bit the hand, and the other bit the hand. He pulled hard, and amidst screams, he tore off the emperor's hands and feet.
Chu Zeshuoxi was still puzzled, and made a tiger bite tightly from the wound. A tiger bit his cheek, chewing bit by bit, until the white bones appeared on his cheeks, and his waist Chu Zeshuoxi sneered when his flesh and blood were eaten up, dragging his black intestines and liver all over the floor, "Take out his heart, I want to see if it's black!"
Hearing the words, the two white tigers moved their furry ears with normal human nature. One of the tiger's forelegs threw itself on the emperor who was writhing in pain and screaming to hold him down, and the other bent its claws and raised it high With a whistling sound, it pierced through his chest, grabbed his heart violently, pulled out his heart, and threw it on the ground.
The black and red heart was still beating, but the emperor who was surrounded by two fierce tigers finally closed his eyes.
Chu Zeshuo heaved a sigh of relief, his face softened a lot, he smiled lightly, and said to the two white tigers, "Good boy, get some food, and escape from here, along the way you were hunted, escape get out."
Hearing the words, the two white tigers dragged the two dead bodies obediently. After looking at Chu Zeshuoxi with nostalgia, they quickly left the hall full of dead bodies.
Those Chang'an guards and ministers were still fighting with a group of blood crows, so they couldn't take care of them for a while.Chu Zeshuoxi put down the bone flute on his lips, turned around and looked at Qi Yang who was staring at her silently on the ground, and smiled wryly, "Shuoxi is really sorry for ruining the king's entry into the palace."
"It's okay, Gu never thought that Gu would be alive after tonight."
There was a bright smile in King Liuhuang's brown eyes, "Besides, I have seen Lord Chu Ze's unique skills today, even if I die alone, it will be worth it."
Eyelids drooping slightly, Chu Zeshuo approached her, squatted down slowly, and supported her with his remaining left arm.
There is a clear scent of saffron flowers permeating around them.
Qi Yang couldn't help laughing, "Gu thought that only Gu likes such a clean way of death."
Chu Zeshuoxi also laughed, "If Wang hadn't taken the old man's sachet back then, Shuoxi wouldn't have known that the fragrant ling flower that Liuhuang people love is actually used for such a purpose."
The ancient Liuhuang people, before the war, would mash the highly poisonous Xianglinghua into juice and apply it all over their lips. After being captured by the enemy, they would directly bite their lips, and the venom applied on their lips would Invade people's bodies, let Liuhuang people die with dignity.
Qi Yang chuckled, "This is the soul of Liuhuang."
"Then today, let Shuoxi complete the final step of becoming Liu Huanghun for the king."
With a murmur, Chu Zeshuo closed his eyes, held her hand tightly, slowly moved his lips closer to her, and kissed her.
A faint smell of blood echoed between each other's lips and teeth, Qi Yang opened his eyes with complex expressions, and the blood and tears streaming down Chu Zeshuoxi's delicate face dripped onto her skirt that had already been dyed bright red, and disappeared without a sound. .
"Farewell, King Liuhuang."
