Heaven

Ji Kongqing didn't want to experience the feeling of being able to replace him with his body, so until many years later, he still stood in front of that person!

————————————————————————————————————

On the stone table in front of Ji Kongqing was a table of exquisite food and wine.

It is said that this was specially made by the chef in the village according to his taste in Jingguo Palace. It is a southern dish with four cold and eight hot dishes.

Ji Kongqing ate very slowly.

Ever since he was bitten by that strange venomous snake, the poison on his body has not been released. Until now, his whole body is sore and weak, and he has to eat slowly with chopsticks.

Jing Mingrui was locked on a shelf beside him, waiting for today's punishment.

He has been suffering all kinds of torture for so many days, and there is almost no complete piece of skin below the neck.

Seeing him being tortured in front of him, Ji Kongqing was overwhelmed with grief and indignation at first, and tried to stop him several times, wishing he could replace him with his own body, and once even tried to grab a red-hot iron with his bare hands.In the end, his emotions were gradually overwhelmed by regret, and he gradually collapsed.He often runs around frantically, constantly looking for ways to torture himself, hitting his head against the wall and scratching himself, as if as long as he can suffer with Jing Mingrui, he will feel better.Sometimes they even screamed aloud, trying to cover up the sound of beating flesh.

The woman in the yellow shirt didn't stop him when she saw him like this, she just asked her subordinates to take away all the things that might cause harm around Ji Kongqing, and spread thick cushions everywhere, drinking tea with a smile and admiring his frantic appearance .

It wasn't until three days ago that Ji Kongqing suddenly felt a familiar warm current welling up in his chest, and then he suddenly woke up from his dazed state, and looked at Jing Mingrui with regained clarity.Jing Mingrui was being hanged upside down at that time. The joints of his hands were hung upside down. His joints were dislocated at this time, and blood flowed down his shoulders.As if sensing the gaze in front of him, he tilted his low and gloomy head slightly, and gave Ji Kongqing a smirk.

From that day on, Ji Kongqing never lost his composure as before.He began to eat and rest normally, and seemed to have no interest in the various punishments in front of him.Only he knew in his heart that it was completely useless to regret what had happened. He needed to gather his strength and look for an opportunity, an opportunity that hit him with a single blow.

"...Just put your hand in, and then turn the mechanism like this, you can crush your fingers little by little from the fingertips." The yellow shirt woman's biggest hobby these days is to take out a lot of similar instruments of torture, one by one Explain the function to Jing Mingrui and let him choose by himself.

"Jing Kingdom really deserves to be a decadent dynasty with one foot in the coffin. There are so many types of instruments of torture." Jing Mingrui also praised, his voice broken and hoarse, intermittent.His exclamation is not without reason.Since the founding of the state of Chu, the state of Chu has always adhered to the policy of strict laws and lenient punishments, and formulated strict laws and regulations, but simplified the various punishments of the former Qi. and beheading.Jing Yan believed that killing people was nothing more than a nod to the ground, and that it was more effective to deter the people by cruel and terrible torture than to let the people know what they would do to break the law.Therefore, in the territory of Chu State, except in special torture institutions, it is almost impossible to see such a variety of torture instruments.

"There are so many disadvantages. You see, I see so many torture instruments that can be used on fingers, but I can't choose." The woman in the yellow shirt looked troubled.

"What's so difficult about that? As far as I can see, since a person has ten fingers, let's try each of them slowly every day, and it will be fine if we use them all once." Jing Mingrui suggested.His family knows his own family affairs, if torture is used on him again, even with his amazing physical strength, he will almost be unable to bear it, if he can use his fingers to delay a little time, it would be great.

He suddenly smiled at the woman and said: "Little beauty, I have a discussion with you, and they all say that fingers are connected to hearts. If I can stop screaming later, how about you give me a jug of wine?" She also pouted at the table in front of Ji Kongqing.

The woman in the yellow shirt said cheerfully: "I never thought His Highness the Crown Prince hasn't eaten for half a month, and he hasn't even had a few sips of water, so he wants to drink?"

Jing Mingrui made a grimace: "I can't help it, who told me that the wine worm in my stomach was hooked up."

At this moment, a young man hurried in from outside.

He whispered anxiously in the ear of the woman in the yellow shirt: "Elder Sister, Master's urgent summons, His Majesty was suddenly assassinated the day before yesterday, and his life and death are uncertain! Master asked us to complete the action quickly and go back as soon as possible."

The woman in the yellow shirt frowned: "Action, what action?"

The young man made a beheading motion: "Of course I killed Jing Mingrui. Mr. Kong Qing can take it if he can, and forget it if he can't. It's important that we withdraw first."

The woman in the yellow shirt waved her hand: "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm still two-thirds away from the punishment His Majesty asked me to complete."

The young man was very anxious and said: "This operation has failed. The Prince Regent is now in power in the palace of Chu State. Only by killing their prince will we be able to claim some meager credit. It will be easy to explain when we go back."

The woman in the yellow shirt smiled happily: "I don't care about the actions in the palace. They messed up things by themselves. What does it have to do with me? I am only responsible for fulfilling your majesty's little wish, so that Mr. Kongqing can appreciate his new lover." 'beauty'."

The young man just felt that the other party was completely unreasonable. The group of them obviously came to help Jing Minghuang seize power and usurp the throne. Now that the plan has failed, it is almost a foregone conclusion. If they don’t get back some money and leave quickly, do they have to wait for the newly appointed regent to arrest them? ?I don't want this "big sister" like myself to torture Jing Mingrui into an addiction, and even drag on and refuse to leave.Helplessly, her identity is secretive, and her attacks are fierce. Even her master is afraid of her, and she dare not speak out to offend her.

"It's not good, it's not good!" Another young man stumbled in, "Master, Zhuangzi is surrounded by people!"

"What are you panicking about? You go out for a while, I'll open the mechanism maze to trap them, and then we all retreat from the secret passage together." The woman in the yellow shirt made a prompt decision.

The two young men immediately felt relieved when they heard the words, and rushed to defend against the enemy.

"His Royal Highness, I didn't expect that we will be interrupted after only using 38 kinds of instruments of torture." The woman in the yellow shirt walked towards Jing Mingrui helplessly, "But don't worry, I will let His Royal Highness Hit the road happily."

"!" Ji Kongqing felt her killing intent and was startled.

The woman in the yellow shirt pulled out a black hairpin from her hair, pointed at Jing Mingrui's neck, nodded and said, "Just use this."

Suddenly she felt a tightness around her neck, and Ji Kongqing, who was sitting at the table just now, jumped up behind her at some point and strangled her throat.

Ji Kongqing has been waiting for this opportunity.His body's resistance to poison is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and his meridians have a strong ability to filter poison. Although he has not obtained an antidote, the toxicity has weakened after so many days, and he has finally accumulated the power of a blow.He shot by surprise, and sure enough, he restrained the enemy's leader in one fell swoop.

Just as Ji Kongqing was about to tighten her fingertips and cut off the woman in yellow shirt's neck, she suddenly felt a terrible smell of blood rushing towards her face.He is a person who has been on the battlefield, and he has a murderous aura, but the terrifying aura in this bloody smell makes him tremble all over, his fingers are stiff, and he can't use any strength at all.Ji Kongqing was easily restrained and extremely astonished. Who is this woman? Could it be that she is a descendant of heaven and man? Is this her special ability?

The woman in the yellow shirt slapped Ji Kongqing to the ground with her backhand, touched her neck, and complained: "Brother Qing, why are you so cruel to your slaves, you are going to strangle your marks, are you reluctant to leave your slaves? Don't worry, although the servant has left, the dressing box is specially left for you, so that you can think about others when you see things."

Ji Kongqing's heart was filled with despair, he couldn't save Mingrui, maybe he should die with him?No, if you want to die, you have to wait until you have avenged Mingrui.

Jing Mingrui suddenly laughed a few times: "Little beauty, if you don't hurry up, everyone outside will die."

The woman in the yellow shirt wondered: "Is His Royal Highness so impatient to go on the road?"

Jing Mingrui moved his neck slightly, as if he wanted to shake his head, but he was too injured to make a big movement: "If you don't take me out to exchange chips for escaping, you will really have no one left .”

The woman in the yellow shirt looked at Jing Mingrui incredulously: "Do you know that I will use you as a threat to escape?"

Jing Mingrui said in a hoarse voice: "When they come to find me, they will definitely send out a large army, and they will be surrounded by dozens of miles. I have never heard of any secret passage that can be dug so far. You can only escape if you trade me for a horse. The encirclement. But you don't seem to care much about the life and death of your subordinates. The theory of trapping the enemy is supposed to trick them to die. How can there be any mechanism to trap the army in a small manor?"

The woman in the yellow shirt smiled all over her face and said, "His Royal Highness really deserves his reputation, I said how could Ji Xi be your opponent? Thank you so much, come with me!" She mentioned Jing Mingrui, and pulled him to stand in front of her , pressed the black hairpin to his neck, and then walked out slowly.When passing by Ji Kongqing's side, he still didn't forget to make a joke: "My brother Qing, we will have a date later."

When Ji Kongqing heard Jing Mingrui say that he was not in danger for the time being, he felt a little more at ease.He was slapped away by the woman's palm, and the little internal strength he had finally gathered was scattered, so he could only sit on the ground wearily, watching Jing Mingrui go out.

Jing Mingquan led his soldiers and horses to surround the place that had been confirmed to be a hidden stake in the Jing Kingdom. He personally cut the throats of several people with a dagger, and rushed in first.

Suddenly seeing his fifth brother covered in blood, Jing Mingquan's fingers cracked, and his hand holding the dagger trembled angrily.It's a pity that the other party pressed Jing Mingrui's throat tightly with a hairpin that didn't look like a good thing.

At this time, all the men in the yellow shirt had been killed, and she successfully exchanged Jing Mingrui's safety for a horse, and took Jing Mingrui with her and galloped away.

Jing Mingquan had no choice but to grit his teeth and shout loudly: "If you dare to hurt my fifth brother, I will definitely make your life worse than death!"

The woman in the yellow shirt kept changing directions and galloped for more than an hour, making sure that she had completely escaped from the encirclement.She slowed down the speed of the horse a little, and whispered to Jing Mingrui's ear with her red lips: "It's really strange, brother Mingqing is more delicious, why do I think I like you more?"

Jing Mingrui's body was almost unable to hold on, and after going through this bumpy ride, there was no pain in any place.He gritted his teeth, pulled the corners of his mouth reluctantly, and showed an ugly smile: "Is the little beauty confessing to me?"

The woman in the yellow shirt nodded very seriously: "My family also has a name and a surname. My name is Muruo. Your Highness the Crown Prince must remember it. I didn't even tell Brother Qing!" The horse was photographed.

Jing Mingquan, who secretly performed lightness kung fu and followed behind, was terrified. It would be fine if the fifth brother fell like this. He used all his strength to fly forward, and finally caught Jing Mingrui before he landed.

Jing Mingrui finally couldn't bear it anymore after all this tossing, and passed out.

Jing Mingquan didn't care about chasing him, so he blew his whistle to call for Xinniao, holding Jing Mingrui in his arms and waiting for reinforcements.
