Chapter 48 Dust to Dust

I took the imperial edict and went out of the palace gate. At the gate of the palace, I saw Su Yu waiting for me with two horses. Seeing me coming, she raised her head and smiled at me.

I went up to lead the horse and said to her:

"Let's go."

Su Yu and I traveled day and night, and arrived at the Qin Army's camp two days later.I took the imperial edict and handed it over to General Jing Jing. After reading it, he smiled at me:

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

I waved my hand:

"General Jing won a complete victory in the battle against Chu State this time, and made great contributions to our Great Qin. I thank General Jing here."

"Your Majesty Wang Jun is being polite." He smiled, turned around and said to the lieutenant beside him, "Take Wang Jun there."

"As ordered!"

I followed the lieutenant general to the cell, and the lieutenant gave the documents, and the guarded soldiers took people to escort Xiang Yao. Seeing it was me, Xiang Yao froze for a moment, and said expressionlessly:

"Qin Wangjun, after a long time, don't come here without any problems."

I sneered:

"Stay safe."

Then he said to the soldiers:

"take away!"

Xiang Yao was escorted for two steps, then stopped suddenly, and said:

"Qin Wangjun, I don't know if my husband, Shan Hanfei, has ever been well?"

"Not dead." I said coldly.

"That's good." She chuckled and was escorted away.

The deputy general said lightly:

"This princess of Chu Kingdom really lives up to her reputation, she has such a strong character."

I smiled and said nothing, turned around and went to another place.

Pushing open the door, there was a person sitting by the wall in the darkness, I held a lamp and walked up to her, looked at her, and asked:

"Is it bitter?"

"Sir?" Shan Hanfei froze for a moment, looked up at me, her eyes sparkled, she grabbed my clothes with one hand, and said nervously, "Sir, can you save Ayao?"

I knelt down and asked her:

"Do you know who she is? ——The eldest princess of the enemy country!"

She turned pale.

I continued:

"You come with me, I can save you."

She grabbed my clothes tightly and said in a hoarse voice:

"If it takes my life...can I exchange it for A Yao?"

I looked at her blankly:

"According to the law of Qin, Xiang Yao should be tortured."

She trembled all over, and suddenly knelt down to me while trembling, and looked at me:

"Sir! Zhong Wei will not achieve great things in this life, but I hope that the one I love will be safe. Zhong Wei... Please, save Ayao, I guarantee that she will not return to the country! Sir!"

I put down the lamp and help her up:

"Princess Xiang Yao of the Kingdom of Chu must die. I can't save her. Come with me."

Hearing this, she was silent for a while, then kowtowed heavily towards me, and said loudly:

"Zhongwei is A-Yao's husband. They live in the same bed and die in the same hole. Mr. Zhongwei accepts her kindly, but Shu Zhongwei can't leave!"

I looked at her, and that Shan Hanfei who used to be terribly afraid of death now knelt down in front of me and said that he would live and die with Xiang Yao.

To live and die together, with whom can I live and die together?

"You really don't want to go?"

"After Zhongwei died, I beg you to bury me and A Yao together."

I whispered:

"I answer you."

"Thank you sir!"

While talking, I raised my hand and slashed at the back of her neck, and she fell to the ground with a sideways body. I smiled, this guy is still so weak, and I don't know how Xiang Yao can support her.

"Come on!" I called out to the Taoist.

"Your Majesty."

"Take her out, and together with Xiang Yao, I will personally escort her back to the capital for execution!"

"promise!"

I took a small group of people and escorted Xiang Yao and Shan Han back to the capital. After a day of traveling, when the sky was getting dark, I said to everyone:

"Camp here and rest."

"promise!"

I got off the horse and looked at the sky, probably the sky was about to change.The soldiers beside me were busy setting up tents, so I walked to the prison car where Xiang Yao was imprisoned and asked her:

"Are you hungry?"

She looked at me coldly and didn't speak.

I asked her again:

"hungry?"

"Not hungry." She said coldly.

I took a sip of wine and laughed:

"If you're not hungry, you won't have dinner."

She doesn't speak.

I asked:

"Do you know? Shan Hanfei is willing to trade his death for your life."

Hearing this, she was staring at me steadfastly, her eyes sparkling with fire.

I shrugged:

"Of course it's impossible. Her life is not as precious as yours."

"you!"

I took a sip of wine and said to her lightly:

"You know what? You ruined my life."

She sneered:

"What? I, a defeated princess, can still ruin Qin Wangjun's life? Hehe... Or do you dare to tell Murong Bai?"

I shook my head, looked in Qin's direction and said lightly:

"No."

"What's that?" She looked at me.

I threw the wine bag to her and said with a blank expression:

"You'll find out soon enough."

Child

A figure outside the camp flashed by, I got dressed and walked out of the tent, Su Yu was still wearing the red shirt, I frowned:

"Shouldn't an assassin wear night clothes?"

She glanced at me disdainfully and sneered:

"The next poison will kill you, and you still need to change your clothes?"

"..."

Su Yu snorted coldly, turned around and walked towards the prison car.The camp was quiet, and I suddenly couldn't bear it, because I...they were all wronged.

"Let's go!" Su Yu didn't reply.

I hurried to follow.

In front of the prison car, Su Yu took a knife, raised the knife and dropped it, and she split the lock.Xiang Yao was awakened, she looked at me and Su Yu with a bit of surprise on her face.

Su Yu dropped the knife and said:

"Ah Zong, her sister, come here and let the uncle take a look."

I:"......"

What time is this and you are still playing hooligans!

Xiang Yao looked at me and I smiled:

"Come on, I'll take you away."

Xiang Yao opened the door and got out of the car, paused, and said:

"You... why did you save me?"

I laugh while saying nothing.

Su Yu glanced at her from the side:

"You are her sister, she won't save you? If you don't let her save her, then you still tell her your identity?"

"Uncle Master!" I called Su Yu, now I don't want to say these things, I have done everything, there is no turning back.

"Okay, okay, let's go, there is still a long way to go!" Su Yu turned around and said.

"Zhong Wei she..." Xiang Yao hesitated.

I smiled and patted her on the shoulder, and pointed to the person who was lying on the ground not far away, her eyes lit up instantly.

Su Yu, Xiang Yao, Shan Hanfei and I rode away overnight. In the early morning of the next day, Su Yu said to us:

"Okay, I'll take you here. 71 I'm afraid that idiot won't be able to stand it after a long time. If you go along this road for another day, you will arrive at the ferry in the evening and board the boat. There will be no Xiangyao in the world." Shan Han flew away."

I smile at her:

"Then you can wait for my return in Qin Kingdom."

With the morning light behind her back, she said to me:

"So, I will wait for you in Qin."

Qin Palace Imperial Study Room

"Your Majesty!" A man broke into the hall and clasped his fists at Murong Bai, "Xiang Yao and Shan Hanfei were kidnapped!"

Murong's pale face sank:

"What nonsense! Which thief dares to rob people in the Great Qin Army!"

"Your Majesty..." the man said cautiously, "Three days ago, you issued an edict to ask the king to go and escort the princess of Chu back to the king's capital to ask for her beheading... She was robbed on the way... ...His Majesty Wang Jun...is missing..."

Murong Bai's head went blank, and she suddenly remembered what the man said that day when he came looking for her:

"Can I ask you for a favor?"

help......

Think about it, that's how you ask me for help!

Do you know what stupid things you did!

"Pass down the decree! The whole country captures Su Yu alive!" She said with a cold voice, "Catch him back!"

"No!" The man stepped back.

Murong Bai swept all the things on the table to the ground, her chest kicked heavily, no wonder people who refused to pay attention to her for three years suddenly came to her, no wonder she went to find her palace man yesterday and said that she had something to leave the palace up...

Guigu Zongheng, that's how you treat me!What is the relationship between Xiang Yao and you? You have to save her even if you are my enemy!Since you saved, then you will pay the price!

After Su Yu left, I sent Xiang Yao and Shan Hanfei to the ferry. Before boarding the boat, I asked Xiang Yao:

"Do you want to return to the country?"

She shook her head:

"Father told me before he died, the past is the past."

I smile.

She looked at me, tilting her head:

"I didn't expect you to come to my rescue."

I rubbed my eyebrows:

"I didn't expect you to be my sister."

She nodded with a smile, looked back at Shan Hanfei who was sleeping in the cabin, and said to me:

"Have you thought about how to explain it when you go back?"

I shook my head and said helplessly:

"Probably won't be beheaded."

That's what I said, but I felt a little uneasy.

"Get on the boat, see you in Jianghu." I said to Xiang Yao.

She responded, turned and boarded the boat.The boat sailed slowly towards the place where there is no dispute, no national hatred and family hatred.I have some feelings in my heart, Xiang Yao can give up the restoration of the country, Murong Bai, how about you?If the king is in the world, have you really got what you want?

"Sister!" Xiang Yao called me from the bow of the boat, "See you in Jianghu!"

I smiled and waved my hand, turned around and led the horse away.The setting sun was looking at the other side of the mountain behind me, I curled my mouth and shook my head: whether we can meet again, it depends on the sky.

Let's say that Su Yu bid farewell to Xiang Yao and his party, and rode a horse to the capital of King Qin alone. It took only a few hours, when she passed by a lush forest, she suddenly realized that something was wrong. The dense arrows had been shot at her, she got up and jumped up on the back of the horse, dodging the rain of arrows, even so, she was still scratched by the arrows in several places, the blood from the wound and the blood-red gown Yes, a different kind of red.

Before she could stand firm, a group of well-trained killers attacked her, and her face darkened: Blood drops? ——It turns out that Murong Bai already knew about it.

While thinking about it, a woman in a strong suit with an indifferent face attacked her with a long knife in her hand and slashed at her. She dodged sideways and said loudly:

"Who is coming!"

"Blood droplet, Mo Shan."

Su Yu's heart sank, and she raised her hand to attack. Unexpectedly, her figure flickered, she felt bad, and raised her head to stare at Mo Shan:

"Down...poison?"

Mo Shan held the knife, walked up to her, saluted and said:

"According to the order of the lord, the girl was captured alive and returned to the capital, offended."

Su Yu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but fell down when his eyes darkened.Before she came, she quietly thought, is this the legendary feng shui rotation?

When Su Yu woke up, the surroundings were pitch black. She blinked and slowly adjusted her eyes to the surrounding environment. This was a secret room with oil lamps lit on each side. The lights were so dim that she almost thought it was the underworld.

She tilted her head, then stood up from the ground.

"Are you awake?" A woman in black clothes came out of the darkness and asked.

Su Yu raised his eyes when he heard the sound, and saw Murong Bai wearing a royal robe, with a cold face, and she suddenly smiled when the anger in her eyes was raging.

"Why did you do that?" Murong Bai walked to the table not far from Su Yu and stood there, looking at her, with a blank expression on his face.

Su Yu shrugged, indifferently said:

"Just do what you want."

"Just do what you want?" Murong Bai's face suddenly darkened. She was always so moody and angry that she could almost drip water. You can imagine how angry she was inside, "I know you have done a lot. What a stupid thing to do?"

"Stupid?" Su Yu smiled disdainfully, and looked at Murong Bai, "In your eyes, everything she does is stupid?"

Murong Bai slapped the table with his palm, and his voice was fiery:

"You are not qualified to say that with Gu!"

Her chest heaved violently, and her cannibalistic eyes fixed on Su Yu's indifferent face:

"Do you really think that Gu's power is so powerful that you can do whatever you want?!"

She was almost driven mad by them, not because of betrayal, but because they never considered the consequences of doing so: forging the imperial edict, letting go of the princess of the enemy country - which one can she keep?The prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people!The state of Qin has strict laws and criminal laws. She is a king, but she is not a god!How can she defend such a serious crime? !

Think about it, think about it, you wrote the laws of Qin State yourself, don't you know the consequences?Or do you really have no idea how many people in this court wish for your death!I have painstakingly protected you for three years, but you are going to rush to hell!

She almost didn't need to think about it to know that in a short time, at most an hour, all the ministers who had grudges against the king would jointly sign a petition, demanding that she abolish the rear and beheaded!She can even think of the name: Wang Jun has an affair with the enemy country, intending to rebel!

Collaborating with the enemy and treason, intending to rebel!How could she protect her! ! !

"What do you mean?" Su Yu narrowed her eyes, suddenly she vaguely realized that something might have gone wrong.

"Do you think Gudang really doesn't know who she is?" She looked at Su Yu and sneered.

Su Yu's pupils were slightly dilated, and he lost his voice in surprise:

"You... how do you know?!"

She knows, she knows!Since she knew, why did she force Ah Zong like this?Doesn't she know how painful it is for Ah Zong to be caught in the middle?

Su Yu's anger suddenly rose, she looked at Murong Bai, gritted her teeth and said:

"You know it all!"

Hearing this, Murong Bai took two steps forward, staring at Su Yu's fire-breathing eyes, with a terrifying murderous intent:

"What you can find out in Guigushan, Guhui can't find out?"

"Then you still..."

"Gu never intended to kill Xiang Yao!" Murong Bai interrupted Su Yu.

She knew everything, but she was used to not saying anything.She already knew the relationship between Xiang Yao and Sisi, she didn't say it, it was because she believed in her, and it turned out that she was lucky to have such an irreversible incident!Chu State was defeated, she originally planned to take Xiang Yao back to the capital, and after the trial, she would get a death row prisoner to execute, and then release Xiang Yao secretly...Who would have known that such a thing would happen!

"How would we know if you didn't tell me!" Su Yu said angrily, if Murong Bai didn't say anything about this, they would have made such a fuss?

"Say? How do you say it?" Murong Bai asked back, "Tell you that Gu knew that the person next to her pillow was the son of the enemy's royal family? In order to prevent her from being sad and grudged, Gu Gu ignored the entire state affairs and let Xiang Yao go?—— Do you think the lonely king can be as casual as you are!"

She had never spoken so much, never had she been so angry.The world only knows that she likes the new and dislikes the old and neglects her husband for three years, but who can understand how she felt when she got the news that her sweetheart was the son of the enemy's royal family three years ago when Qin Chu started the war!Whether to keep tigers as a threat or to prevent future troubles, only she knows how difficult the choice she makes is!She took Daqin as her duty, but left her behind for her own selfish desires!Why doesn't she believe her, but still treats her like this!

Xiang Yao is your sister who came out of nowhere, what about me?I am the pillow person who has slept with you for six years!If you don't sacrifice for her and become my enemy, I will repay you, so you forced me to attack you!

The ghost valley is vertical and horizontal!This is the love you keep talking about on weekdays!You say I don't have a heart, so where has your heart gone? !Did you give it to Su Yu?

How much do I have to spoil you to let you do this kind of thing and then clean up the results for you! !Since you don't consider the consequences, then I will tell you what the price is!

"Then you know that your method may be wrong!" After a long while, Su Yu was defeated by Murong Bai's gaze, and said angrily from embarrassment.

"Even if it's wrong, as long as she can stay by Gu's side alive, Gu doesn't care!" Murong Bai said indifferently.

"Murong Bai, do you really love someone?" Hearing this, Su Yu was shocked, Ah Zong, Ah Zong, look at what kind of lunatic you fell in love with.

"Whether she will or not, she is alone."

Su Yu remained silent.

Murong Bai turned around and went to the table to get a jug of wine, filled a cup, and said to Su Yu:

"Gu must give an explanation to the people of Qin." She turned to look at Su Yu, "You have no choice whether to drink or not."

Su Yu smiled, but stepped forward to pick up the wine glass, tilted his head, and drank it cleanly. ——Even in death, she died so calmly and gracefully.

"You will let Ah Zong go, right?"

"Gu never wanted to hurt her."

"So...very good." Su Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, and the scarlet liquid slid down her jade-like chin to her neck, and finally fell onto the red shirt that the boy gave her when she was young , and then fleetingly.

Because it was too red, it disappeared so quickly.

"I love you so much..." Su Yu took a breath, and said softly, "I love you more than me..."

She closed her eyes slowly, and after feeling the last bit of strength in her body was exhausted, she fell to the ground suddenly, her blue hair scattered all over the ground, and there was a slight smile on her coquettish face.

Murong Bai lowered his head, expressionless, and said lightly:

"I have always loved Gudu more than you."

No one should answer.

She breathed a sigh of relief, squatted down and waited for a long time before poking her cold body with her fingers.She paused, and called to a place:

"Mo Shan."

"My lord." Mo Shan walked out from the dark place.

"Take her out of Qin, and tell her not to come back when she wakes up—if she doesn't want that person to die."

"promise."

Qin Palace Imperial Study Room

When Murong Bai arrived at the imperial study, Li Dequan greeted her, and told her in a low voice that all the ministers were waiting inside.

It came too soon, she thought.

With a low face, he said lightly to Li Dequan:

"The proposed imperial edict was posted in the royal capital, the princess of Chu was robbed and a group of people were arrested and tortured, and the ashes were thrown in the moat."

"promise."

After giving these orders, she opened the door and entered the imperial study room, where she waited for her ministers to see her, and immediately knelt down and saluted:

"See Your Majesty."

She nodded expressionlessly, went to the chair and sat down, and said lightly to everyone:

"All the lovers came at the right time. In the case of kidnapping the princess of Chu, the culprit has already been captured, and his bones and ashes are scattered on the moat. As for the arrest of Xiang Yao and Shan Hanfei, I will leave it to the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"I don't know who has such courage?" A third-rank minister stepped forward and said.

"Su Yu, the elder holding the sword in Guigu Mountain." Murong Bai said flatly.

The ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, each with their own ulterior motives, but they didn't know what to say.

Murong Bai saw everyone's reaction in his eyes, and said calmly:

"The waiter of the Ministry of punishment."

"The minister is here."

"I promise you January, do you have any objections to arresting Xiang Yao and Shan Hanfei?"

"The minister receives the decree." The waiter of the Ministry of Punishment saluted.

"As for the rest of the royal family of Chu," Murong Bai said calmly, sweeping across the crowd, "beheaded to avoid future troubles!"

She threw the record of Xiang Yao's robbery case to the ground:

"The same thing, I don't want to hear it a second time."

"The minister has his own play!" As soon as the words fell, a second-rank minister stepped forward and said.

"speak."

"I think that His Majesty Wang Jun has a lot to do with this matter. His Majesty Wang Jun left the palace four days ago and has not returned yet. Moreover, Su Yu is Wang Jun's uncle, and Wang Jun is a member of Guigumen, so I think... .”

"What do you think?" Murong Bai sneered, "I don't know that Aiqing is so smart, even Gu's prince knows when he will leave the palace. It really makes Gu Zi sigh."

"Your Majesty!" The minister raised his head in fear.

"Wang Jun has severed ties with Guigushan three years ago, and he is no longer a member of Guigu's family. Is Aiqing's remark blaming her for being incompetent?" Murong Bai asked expressionlessly.

"I have absolutely no intention of doing so, it's just that this fact is strange..."

"Lonely people, don't worry about Ai Qing."

"But His Majesty Wang Jun..."

"What? Just because Wang Jun's reforms hurt your interests, so now he is looking for an opportunity to pull Wang Jun off his horse? Aiqing, you really have a heart." Murong Bai swept the crowd and said indifferently, " Regarding the matter of Wang Jun, I will give an explanation to all the lovers, if she really has an affair with the enemy country... I will never tolerate it!"

"My king is holy!" Everyone saluted.
