Li Zhang

Since Li Zhang was brought back to Yongshou Palace by the Zhou family, he was punished several times for refusing to learn the rules.He wanted to die with all his heart, and he didn't care about the eyes of others looking at him, let alone Zhou's anger. No matter how he was punished, he just stubbornly refused to speak.Mrs. Zhou beat and hanged for a few days, seeing Li Zhang's breath weakened, afraid that he would not be able to explain to Sima Yi if he was really killed, so he let him go with hatred.

Li Zhang was lying alone in an abandoned courtyard in the palace. After five or six days of lack of medical care and food, his body slowly recovered.Although he was at a loss, he vaguely remembered that someone had given him pills and diet while he was asleep, but because he had no ambition to live, he didn't have the intention to study it carefully.

Afterwards, Mrs. Zhou tried her best to insult Li Zhang to change into women's clothes, and made him put in chains, and was dragged out by the inner prisoner to clean the courtyard every day, so he didn't want to hang a notice board saying that he is seductive.Therefore, the place where Li Zhang cleaned every day became the best place for entertainment in the palace. The concubines of the palaces were not easy to show up, but those palace maids and eunuchs got the master's order and trampled on Li Zhang wantonly, but Li Zhang was like an old monk in meditation , woodenly calm, calm.

Soon, the rebellious army was defeated, and the Zhou family hated that iron could not be made into steel. Seeing Sima Yi's constant confrontation with the courtiers, he wholeheartedly believed that Sima Yi was like this because of Li Zhang, and even more that Li Zhang was a monster that harmed the country and the people.After seeing him kneeling and unyielding in front of him, he became even more angry, picked a bunch of mistakes at random, pointed at people and punished him with two hundred rattan canes.

This cane whip is less than three feet long, thin, tough and light. Even a person with little strength can be beaten extremely painfully, but it doesn't hurt the skin. The most commonly used instrument of torture is the palm of the hand, buttock and back, but with only ten or twenty blows, it has already made disobedient palace officials beg for mercy.

Li Zhangchu had already tasted it when he was brought into the Yongshou Palace. At that time, he was beaten more than 50 times, and the rattan whip was broken. The wounds were superimposed and damaged, and the bones were deep in the wound. , but remained silent.It was also the first time for Mrs. Zhou to see such a brutal rattan whip, and she felt a little palpitated for a while, and because she had worked hard with Sima Yi for a long time, she didn't want to bother anymore, so she asked people to hang Li Zhang under the tree in the courtyard, and said that she would die if she didn't ask for mercy. After not being given food and drink, he returned to the palace to rest.

Now after Mrs. Zhou was punished, she stared at Li Zhang closely to see some fear, but saw that he was so indifferent that he didn't even lift his eyelids, and was so angry that he wanted someone to beat him until he begged for mercy.As a result, several cane whips were broken, and at the last whip, a blood groove was smashed, the flesh was smashed, and the bones were exposed, and the person was woken up several times by splashing salt water. He whispered, but he didn't hear a beg for mercy.

How often had Mrs. Zhou fought with others like this, and she was so angry that her heart palpitations and shortness of breath, and the palace people asked the imperial doctor to cook ginseng soup again. Fearing that Mrs. Zhou would be even more angry when she saw Li Zhang, she rushed to carry him back to the abandoned courtyard and locked the door. No one cares whether he is dead or alive.

In the middle of the night, a dark shadow passed over the courtyard wall. After entering the house and working for a long time, he removed the rotten clothes on Li Zhang's body that were sticking to his flesh and blood, and bandaged them with medicine.Li Zhang was awakened by the pain when the man started to move. He opened his eyes and saw the guard in black covering his head and face. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes again.The dark guard finished taking the medicine in silence, stuffed a pill into Li Zhang's mouth, regardless of whether he was willing to swallow it or not, squeezed his fingers together with his chin, and pushed the pill into his stomach.

Li Zhang finally opened his eyes again, and asked in a low voice, "...my lord?"

The dark guard nodded, and said softly: "Master, please take care of yourself and don't be angry. You must know that there is no unparalleled road."

Li Zhang was speechless, staring at the void without knowing what he was thinking, and soon closed his eyes tiredly.

The dark guard retreated quietly.

Three days later, Li Zhang, who had just been able to go to the ground, was brought to Mrs. Zhou for routine admonition. Seeing his pale, thin but delicate and picturesque face, Mrs. Zhou felt more and more seductive. Thinking of the rumors quietly spreading in the city, she felt even more Feeling that the rumors were true, someone found a pot of dog blood and splashed Li Zhang all over his head.

Li Zhang was stunned and thought that Mrs. Zhou had come up with some way to torture people, but he didn't care, he just raised his hand to wipe the blood from his eyebrows, and forced himself to be locked and knelt in the courtyard.When it was getting late, the Taoist priests invited by the Zhou family began to practice in the courtyard to restrain the demons.The Taoist chanted and danced around Li Zhang, sprinkled the talisman water, and danced with the mahogany sword in his hand.The surroundings were full of palace people and concubines watching the excitement.

Li Zhang knelt on the cold ground for a long time with his body wet, his whip wounds were broken, his knees hurt like needles, and his broken right leg was so sore, his eyes were already black with sweat, and he was almost dead On the verge of passing out.At this time, Taoist talisman water was splashed on his body and face one by one. Although it was not much, it also made him gradually sober up. He slowly heard his new crime and was stunned in disbelief. Zhou's eyes were both frightened and excited, and suddenly he lowered his head and chuckled, and when he raised his head again, arrogance appeared in his eyes, and he raised his hand to the ecstasy Taoist priest, and snatched the mahogany sword.

The Taoist was stunned, watching Li Zhang who was about to stand up and retreated again and again.Li Zhang gritted his teeth and leaned his sword on the ground, then dragged his limp right leg to stand up.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhou was taken aback. When she met Li Zhang's soul-stirring eyes on his blood-stained face, the uneasiness that had been buried in her heart instantly amplified. Straight back.The palace servants and concubines were all scared and backed away in panic, and the screams in Yongshou Palace shook the sky for a while, as if they had really seen a monster.

The imperial doctor who stood by saved Mrs. Zhou, and Li Zhang staggered to his feet.In the cold twilight of early spring, Li Zhang's body was covered with large amounts of blood, and the scattered hair was stained with sweat and blood, sticking to his face, making his thin and thin face as white as snow.Under the reflection of the flames, his eyes were frighteningly bright, and his tight lips showed a very stubborn determination. Although he was covered in embarrassment and chains, and was isolated from the eyes of the public, he had a detached look. aloof.

The screams around were quiet for a while and then sounded again, some timid people could not stand upright and sat down on the ground.I don't know who started to cry, and the sudden scream was mixed with many crying sounds, it really sounded like hell on earth.

The more Li Zhang listened, the more amusing he became, and he couldn't help but glance around, his cold and sharp gaze immediately silenced the screaming and crying crowd!

Shocked and terrified, Mrs. Zhou grabbed the inner eunuch's arm and leaned against the back of the chair until the inner eunuch's maid surrounded him with a wall of people before daring to point at Li Zhang and yell at him. Said: "Monster! It really is a monster! I won't accept you today, I'm sorry for the ancestors of the Great Wei!"

Li Zhang sneered slightly, curled the corners of his lips, and pulled out a faint sneer, his eyes full of essence glanced at Zhou Shi lightly, then turned his head and stopped looking at her.Since he entered the Yongshou Palace, although he refused to obey discipline, it was the first time he appeared in front of people with such a bold and aggressive attitude. Against the background of shadowy buildings, his chained but arrogant appearance made people look at him as a fox monster. The identity is a little more believable.

The Zhou family hated and was afraid, and had completely forgotten the agreement with Sima Yi. She just wanted to kill the evildoer in front of her, restore the purity of the harem, and save Wei from the fire!She saw that Li Zhang was just standing there with his hands behind his back and had no intention of escaping at all. She only said that dog blood, the altar and chains had all played a role, so she asked people to prepare dog blood again, and at the same time strictly ordered the inner prisoner to come forward and kill Li Zhang. chapter.

The inner eunuchs who had received the order rushed up with sticks in their hands, but when they reached the front, they were frightened by Li Zhang's cold look and their legs trembled. They circled around, and no one dared to take the lead.

Zhou's eyes were full of madness, the more she thought about it, the more real the plot made her completely into the drama, and the person in front of her completely became the incarnation of a fox demon, which made bloodthirsty cruelty jump out of her eyes, and the urging sound became more and more intense. fierce.All the internal eunuchs were shaking with fright, and they approached Li Zhang step by step, their hands holding sticks were covered with cold sweat.One of the inner eunuchs was so frightened that his feet trembled when he was hit by a raised pebble. One staggered forward and threw the stick he held up high at Li Zhang. The other inner eunuchs followed suit as if they had received orders up.

There was a lot of exclamation all around, but there was a lot of relief mixed in the surprise.

A flash of arrogance flashed in Li Zhang's eyes, and he didn't move, the mahogany sword in his hand had been forced out.Everyone saw the wooden sword rising and falling like a flying swallow piercing a willow. The sticks in the hands of the eunuchs had fallen to the ground one after another. The owner of the stick stood there in a daze, and then retreated a few feet with a clap of heart.

The surrounding people exclaimed again, they were already frightened and frightened, they had no choice but to suppress their desire to escape immediately because they hindered the Empress Dowager.

After Li Zhang hit the target with one blow, he bent down and leaned on the ground with his mahogany sword, his body was precarious.Under serious injury, he tried his best to move rashly, his strength was exhausted and he raised his true energy rashly. The restricted meridian points felt like thousands of silver needles were pierced into them. every night.

At this time, all the people who went out to get the dog's blood had returned, and the imperial guards who asked the emperor for transfer also rushed there.Mrs. Zhou finally settled down, looked at Li Zhang who was half kneeling on the ground with his head bowed and panting, and waved his hands with a sneer, several large pots of dog blood still drenched Li Zhang completely drenched!

Li Zhang was caught off guard. Although he lowered his head so as not to choke, the smell of blood infinitely magnified the sense of humiliation on his body.He was full of grief and anger, but he just wanted to laugh out loud!

He really laughed, trembling all over, but tried to straighten his waist, his bright eyes were full of sarcasm, and he looked at Zhou and said provocatively: "The Empress Dowager insists on calling Li Zhang a demon, and Li Zhang is also a demon." Curious, I want to know what I am! What else does the Empress Dowager have to do, just use it, Li Zhang accepts his fate!"

As Li Zhang said, he threw away the mahogany sword in his hand, gritted his teeth and stood up straight, blood dripped from his hair, cutting his handsome eyebrows to pieces, but his eyes were still shining brightly, dancing with unyielding and proud light.

The voices of people around gradually turned into whispers, Zhou's face darkened, and he glanced at the guards who were standing upright, remembering the agreement with Sima Yi, it was not good to order to kill again under this situation, so he looked again The Taoist priest who was stunned by the side snorted coldly and said: "Since you are a monster, you will always show your true colors. Aijia will not be deceived by you! Please continue to cast spells!"

Seeing that the Empress Dowager wanted Li Zhang to show his original shape, the Taoist suddenly felt that something was wrong, carefully picked up the mahogany sword, his eyes turned and he had an idea.Holding the mahogany sword, he looked up, down, left, and right for a while, then sniffed it close to his nose, and apologized to Mrs Zhou with regret on his face: "This mahogany sword has been stained with evil spirits and filth, it has lost its spirituality, and it is difficult to use it anymore. Please ask the empress dowager Rong Pindao to go back and prepare the magic weapon again."

Mrs. Zhou frowned, thinking that Li Zhang had touched the sword, she believed it. Naturally, she would not think about how the magic weapon for suppressing demons would be taken away by the fox demon, so she agreed to the Taoist priest's proposal and ordered the guards to arrest him. He returned to the abandoned courtyard and was strictly guarded.

The abandoned courtyard was covered with talisman papers as if facing an enemy, the windows of the hut were nailed down, the door was replaced with the thickest door panel, and a triple lock was hung.After Li Zhang entered, Eunuch Pan, the chief manager of the Zhou family, led people to add a few more chains to him. Together with the original ones on his body, they were fastened to the wall at the head of the bed. Zhang could only curl up and sit on the head of the bed, unable to lie flat at all, let alone get off the ground.

Li Zhang indifferently watched the people exit one by one and locked the door, the room was suddenly pitch black, as quiet as a coffin.

The sudden thought made Li Zhang unconsciously twitch the corner of his mouth, and the relaxed spirit could no longer suppress the screaming pain all over his body.He couldn't take off his drenched clothes, he could only close his eyes tiredly amidst the bloody smell soaring to the sky.In a daze, remembering the previous angrily resisting, suddenly regretted: both of them were begging for death, wouldn't it be convenient to let someone beat and kill them at that time!

But still, he couldn't swallow the foul breath.

With a wry smile, Li Zhang sank in the bone-chilling chill and pain.

In the middle of the night, when the shadow came again, he saw the drowsy Li Zhang with his hands tied up. After thinking for a while, he decided that saving people was the most important thing. He untied the chains and took off his wet clothes. Li Zhang was indeed burning hot.Sighing, he reapplied the medicine for Li Zhang, changed into clean and thick clothes, and fed another pill.

Li Zhang didn't wake up when he was hurt this time, his brows were furrowed, but his face was extremely indifferent, appearing fearless and detached, but it made people feel vulnerable and lonely.

Heiying sighed softly, glanced at the airtight room, and put the luminous beads in his hands into Li Zhang's arms.

Li Zhang didn't know how long he had been in a coma. After waking up, he didn't know what day or night he was. His body was sore and numb because he couldn't stretch for a long time.The heat seems to have receded a bit, the most important thing is that the fishy and wet clothes on his body have been changed.He breathed a sigh of relief, moved his stiff body to a slightly different position, and stared at the darkness in front of him blankly with his eyes open.

This is what it feels like to be buried, right?Lonely, but at ease.

So be it.

The peace of mind of darkness and loneliness.

No more tiredness.
