The woman was dragged by the arms by two guards and dragged on the ground. The golden phoenix with the hairpin shone brightly in the dark night, and was mercilessly pulled to the ground, making a sharp clanging sound.

The priceless jewelry and waist pendants on her all showed her noble royal status, and her lower abdomen was obviously bulging. Looking closely, she was actually Dong Cheng's daughter, Dong Guiren, the current Holy Majesty.

At this moment, she abandoned the old majesty, opened her eyes wide in horror, struggled desperately to get rid of the soldiers' restraints, and wailed loudly towards the west: "The concubine is pregnant in May, please Your Majesty save the concubine's life!" Bar!"

In the silence, no one dared to say a word, and in an instant, everyone knelt down and bowed their heads in unison.

A Sheng raised his eyes in amazement, and saw Liu Xie stumbled out with the help of the palace servants before seeing the majestic and resplendent palace.He didn't wear the emperor's crown, and his dragon robe embroidered with gold and flying jade looked very thin in the night. I don't know if it was because of the cool wind, his figure was a little shivering.

Rather than saying that it was him that everyone knelt down in fear, it would be better to say that it was Cao Cao who was behind the emperor.

He wore a chic black robe of flowing gold, and raised his eyebrows to look at the bowed ministers without any trace, accepting their reverent and pious kneeling as a matter of course.

He glanced lightly at the horrific sight of corpses strewn all over the ground, without making a sound.He glanced at Dong Guiren who was still struggling, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his lips, as if he was looking at an ant as humble as dust.

Everyone below was full of air and did not dare to come out. They collectively held their breath and did not dare to raise their heads. They gritted their teeth and waited for the storm to come.

Liu Xie's begging for mercy was heard in his ears, and the majestic emperor almost knelt down in humility: "Sikong, please spare her life. She has nothing to do with her father's treason, she is innocent."

Cao Cao stared straight at him suddenly, the cold light in his eyes made Liu Xie take a few steps back in shock, but without saying a word, the latter shuddered, and he couldn't help pleading: "Then I will demote him to the cold palace first, and wait for her After the baby in the womb is born, it won't be... too late for Sikong to kill him again." The last few words were trembling with fear from Cao Cao's cold gaze, and he began to stammer.

"Oh?" Cao Cao casually leaned over slightly, with a meaningful expression on his face that no one could fathom, "If I'm not mistaken, your Majesty doesn't want to wait for your dragon son to grow up to avenge his ancestral family? I don’t want to have any worries.”

Dong Guiren's hope, which was tightly bound, was extinguished in an instant.She gave Liu Xie a desperate look, the deep pain in her eyes pierced his heart like an awl, making him feel like falling into an abyss.

But Liu Xie was powerless at all, he didn't even dare to catch Dong Guiren's almost questioning eyes, and deliberately lowered his head to avoid her unwillingness and sadness.

All the people present looked at each other in blank dismay, watching the emperor and noble concubine being strangled in public, but who would dare to stop this master.

Seeing that Dong Guiren's face was turning purple, her hands were struggling and waving with the last breath, still calling out "Your Majesty—" but her Majesty was crying silently, Nothing can be done.

Her voice became weaker and weaker, and finally fell silent in the silence, and her whole body fell to the ground.

"Does Your Majesty think that the minister is a traitor?"

Liu Xie couldn't help shivering at Cao Cao's sudden question, and looked at him with difficulty, trembling his lips: "Sikong, why did Sikong say such a thing? How could Sikong be a traitor? Sikong is a hero who has never been born in the world. "

"Then why does Your Majesty want to kill the minister? The minister is dedicated to his duties for the Han Dynasty, and he does not dare to slack off in the slightest. The sun and the moon can learn from his loyalty. What else does your Majesty want from the minister?"

He stared closely at the emperor, the blazing anger in his eyes melted with the cold frost and snow, trying to suppress the strong emotions in his heart.

A Sheng suddenly caught a glimpse of Xun Yu's thoughtful face in the distance.He frowned slightly, and looked at Cao Cao with deep and clear eyes, his expression was an indescribable sadness.

Facing Cao Cao's questioning, Liu Xie was speechless, his lips opened and closed feebly but could not speak.The delicate eyebrows twitched a few times, not daring to look at Dong Guiren, who died tragically under the white silk, and covering his face with his sleeves, while trying to avoid Cao Cao's eyes.

Suddenly, a figure in Bishang came running from a distance,

"Sister!" The man threw himself on Dong Guiren's body almost crazily, and shouted hoarsely at the corpse.

Everyone looked at the woman who was not afraid of death in surprise, and Ah Sheng's expression changed drastically after hearing the voice.

It was Hongxue's cry.

The wind was blowing, blowing up her loose sleeves.

She dazedly stretched out her hand to touch the blood on the ground, sniffed it on the tip of her nose, and grabbed her sister's hand.

"Sister." Hongxue murmured silently, and gently tidied up Dong Guiren's messy hair, staring at her sister's terrifying face with bloodshot features.

From a distance of dozens of steps, Ah Sheng could even feel Cao Cao's indifferent gaze, as if Hongxue would be sentenced to death with a slight parting of his lips in the next second.

She rushed out of the crowd, grabbed Hongxue's right hand and ran outside, "Hurry up!" She didn't even dare to turn her head back in a hurry, for fear that Cao Cao would order them to be arrested.

Hongxue is like a puppet at the mercy of others, letting her lead him into the distant and deep street in a daze.

In the ordinary alleys, there are many people.Only when the tall plane tree next to the execution ground could no longer see its shadow, Ah Sheng stopped to catch his breath.

The lights of every household were almost all extinguished, and the subtle moonlight was projected on the eaves by the faint mist covered by the clouds, gently illuminating Hong Xue's tear-stained face.

"You...you are really that... that Dong Guiren's sister..." A Sheng was anxious, and became more speechless when he was anxious, and poured out the doubts in his heart, regardless of whether Hongxue understood or not. .

Hongxue understood what she meant and nodded.

"Then you, why did you come to the Sikong Mansion to pretend to be... a maid, obviously... obviously such a noble... background, didn't you feel wronged yourself?"

Hongxue seemed to have just reacted from the sudden sadness, and her sanity also recovered. She frowned and got rid of A Sheng's grip on her arm, and stared in disgust: "What's the matter with you? These things are not about you stammering ugly bastard." Take care of it."

yes.Ah Sheng just remembered that Hongxue didn't recognize her current self, and probably wouldn't believe her if she told her directly.

She could only laugh with embarrassment, and rubbed her sore arm at a loss, "I'm fine, just curious."

Hongxue didn't even want to look at her, she turned around and was about to leave, A Sheng was so frightened that she quickly grabbed her, pulled her sleeves to prevent her from leaving, and reprimanded her head and face: "Are you crazy... are you crazy? ...Cao Aman will get...you wanted."

She is Dong Cheng's daughter, and she should also be confiscated into slavery according to the law. If she is really let go, the future will be bleak.

When Hong Xue heard the words, her eyes moved suddenly, her whole body trembled slightly as if hit by a thunderbolt, and her eyelids trembled almost invisibly.

In this world, there is only one woman who calls Cao Cao A Man—her intuition prompted her to look back at A Sheng, staring at her keenly, as if trying to dig out some secret: "Who are you?"

"I, I am...it's Bian Sheng." Knowing that she recognized him, Ah Sheng hurriedly explained, "I, I was covered in human skin...a leather mask by Liu Bei, so I became like this."

Only then did Hongxue stop, and looked her up and down carefully: "I said, why did you become so ugly." Then, she curled her lips and asked her: "Then tell me, where should I escape now."

"Follow me." A Sheng signaled her to follow him closely, and led her to Xun Yu's residence.

"You stay here... avoid here for now, and tomorrow... go to the countryside... early in the morning... and wait for me... I will... pick you up later." Asheng patted her chest and promised her, she Although I was very grateful in my heart, I didn't show it on the face, I just said a word of trouble.But she knew that Ah Sheng herself was in such a situation, that she couldn't go home after ruining her appearance, and she could still think about herself.

Hongxue couldn't help but wanted to say thank you, but saw A Sheng got up and opened the door to the next room.After a while, she came over with a can of wine and a side dish of peanuts.

A Sheng sat down with a smile on her face, and said to her, "Come on, please...please taste my...my plum wine."

A Sheng gently pulled out the cork, and the tangy aroma penetrated into the heart and liver, and the sweet and sour fresh air made one's mind clear.She poured wine into Hongxue's bowl, and the bluish liquid was crystal clear under the candlelight, as clean and clear as amber.

Hongxue picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, the sweet taste flowed into her throat and refreshed her heart.

"Wonderful." She was about to praise, but when she heard the low voice of the man talking outside, her complexion changed slightly, and she put down the clay bowl in her hand.

A Sheng didn't hear what the people outside were saying clearly, guessed that some guests came to visit Xun Yu late at night, and her room was very close to the study, so she wasn't very surprised.But seeing Hongxue's dazed appearance, she couldn't help asking curiously: "What's wrong?"

"Xun You."

Hongxue suddenly pronounced the name, which surprised Ah Sheng: "Do you know Xun Gongda?"

After being mentioned by her, Ah Sheng realized that the owner of the outside voice was Xun You.

"I want to see him." Hongxue stood up from the chair, pushed open the door without any hesitation, and walked towards the place where the voice came from.

A Sheng saw Hongxue approaching the study quietly, and stood quietly by the threshold.Xun You, who was talking with Xun Yu, heard the sound of small footsteps, turned his head curiously, saw her at a glance, and exclaimed in surprise:

"Ah? Where did you go?"

Hongxue didn't say a word, she seemed to be nervously kneading her sleeves, she kept her head down, and after a long time, she said softly, "Mr. Xun is all right? All is well."

"I'm all right." Xun You wanted to say something more, but Hongxue stomped heavily, and ran back to A Sheng's room with a flushed face, as if she was ashamed and angry at her words and deeds, and slammed her temples with her fists.

"Forget it, drink!" Hongxue grabbed the ear of the wine jar, but her hands were trembling, obviously trying to hide her uneasiness.She involuntarily stared in the direction of the study, the wine poured in her hand had already been filled to the brim, but she didn't notice it, and let it overflow, her eyes were still looking out through the gap in the door .

"Hey, hey——" Ah Sheng couldn't help pushing her hand to signal to stop, Hongxue came back to her senses, picked up the bowl and took a big gulp.

After drinking, the chatterbox will open, and what I want to say or dare not say on weekdays will come out.

"How did you know Junshi Xun?" A Sheng asked her, wondering.

"My real name is Akun, and Hongxue is my name in Sikong Mansion."

Her name is really touching, like a free-spirited bird that can spread its wings and fly lightly in the sky.

"My grandfather was one of the nine ministers at that time, and Dong Guiren was the sister of my mother. I remember that my brothers and sisters did not dare to bully my sister at that time, because my mother came from a prominent background, and their mother was inferior to her. Yes. At the time of Emperor Ling, the treacherous ministers were in power to deceive the saints, and the grandfather was framed and framed for the crime of the party. My mother was still pregnant with me, and fled overnight to the secluded suburbs of Gyeonggi, but my sister was because my mother was reluctant to let her suffer. And stay at Dong's house.

Later, when I was 15 years old and Jiji, my mother passed away.She was already suffering from illnesses all over, and there was no money for treatment or burial for her.She once took me back to Dong's house after the death of Lingdi, but the eldest lady drove us away and sent servants to threaten me. I have nowhere to see my father.After my mother died, I was begging alone, and I was about to die from the same disease as my mother. It was Mr. Xun You who saved me.

He bought me medicine and food, so I didn't die of illness or starvation.At that time, I thought, how can there be such a good son in this world, so noble and handsome, yet so kind.After I recovered from my illness, I didn't want to bother him anymore, so I sold myself to the Yanzhou pastoral mansion at that time as a maid, and that's how I met you. "

No wonder she was so stubborn and had such a special temper. It was because of such a unique period of time.A Sheng bit his lip and looked at her. In this way, his life experience is better than hers, at least ten years of stable life have passed.

As soon as Ah Sheng stood up and wanted to pour another bowl of wine for her, there was a sudden loud noise outside, the icy collision of armor and swords and halberds, and the light from the torch faintly penetrated into the room through the window paper. He shouted loudly: "Search the whole house under the order of Sikong, and hand over Dong Cheng's daughter!"
