"Ah!" Gui Hai roared with his sword and prepared to rush in the direction of Princess Yunluo.
He is a paranoid and simple person, and he only knows one thing: this little yellow cat is not a good cat at first glance!
After a breath, he noticed that he was being hugged by a woman, it was Shangguan Haitang.
"Yidao, stop it, you can't make any more mistakes!" Shangguan Haitang shouted.
Gui Hai Yi Dao showed no emotion as he drew his sword, ready to remove all obstacles that delayed his revenge.
"Qiang~" The cold light gradually rose.
"One knife!"
Duan Tianya also tried to provoke his conscience by shouting.
"Qiang~" He was still drawing out his sword, but Gui Hai Yida's expression didn't waver at all.
He is a swordsman and cannot be sentimental!
Shangguan Haitang seemed to remember something and said quickly: "Master Le, please, I beg you to save me. I will give you a massage every day from now on."
The little yellow cat's eyes lit up, he jumped onto Haitang's shoulder and stood with his paws on his back.
"Meow~"
【It doesn’t matter, I will take action!】
Seeing the target standing in front of him, Guihai slashed his sword, gritted his teeth, roared, broke away from Haitang's restraints, and pushed her aside.
Duan Tianya quickly supported him.
"Haitang, I don't allow you to do this! Without this thieving cat, I can still get rid of my inner demons!"
As he spoke, Gui Hai held the knife in his left hand and slashed directly at his right arm.
"Whoosh!"
He raised the knife and dropped it.
Cheng Shifei and his wife opened their eyes wide and stretched out their thumbs: "Cruel!"
"One knife!"
Shangguan Haitang's eyes widened and he was shocked. He quickly stepped forward to support his brother and used a silver needle to help him stop the bleeding.
Gui Hai sank directly to the ground and took a few deep breaths. Although he lost his right arm to hold the knife, his face was full of pride: "Hai Haitang, without that cat, I can still control my inner demons.
From now on, I will never and cannot kill anyone again! From now on, you will never owe that cat any favors."
Shangguan Haitang was dumbfounded: "But, but I already owe him a lot. Besides, Mr. Le has dozens of maids to serve him in the palace, so he doesn't care about me.
The most important thing is that he can help you get rid of your inner demons without cutting off your arms."
Gui Hai was stunned for a moment, his expression changed from relieved to confused. He raised his head and looked at Duan Tianya. Duan Tianya nodded in affirmation and turned to look at Cheng Shifei.
Cheng Shifei sighed and nodded.
Looking around, Guihai Yida finally looked at the right arm on the ground that had been with him for half his life.
Did he cut it in vain?
"Meow meow~" His shoulders sank, and the little yellow cat jumped on his shoulders, his eyes full of admiration and encouragement.
[You did not cut it in vain. You have proved your determination to face the inner demons and your courage to face everything. You have also proved that human beings are desperate when facing love!
From now on, in the history of the Tmall clan, there will be one more human supporting role like you, a wolf dog among dog lickers and a fool among swordsmen.
This is a small step for you, but it is a giant step in the history of the human race
You are a great man!]
Guihai Yi Dao:???
This cat is too annoying.
Where is my knife?
…
Hulong Villa, Zhaixing Pavilion.
The brave god Hou Zhuwu stood on the top of the pavilion, quietly holding on to the jade railing and admiring the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers in front of him.
The evening breeze is gentle, birds are chirping, and clouds are changing on the light blue sky, which is like the future of every life, unpredictable.
After a while, the wind started to rise and dark clouds gathered.
Zhu Wuwang looked at the dark clouds high in the sky with a leisurely look on his face.
He really likes to watch the rain, especially the heavy rain in late summer, which comes suddenly like a crash, hitting the earth and drowning everything.
If it were any bigger, it would be a natural disaster of flood, and the people below would be wiped out instantly like small insects and mayflies.
"Father!" Shangguan Haitang approached.
Zhu Wuwu nodded slightly: "How is the Yida incident going? Can he go to the Criminal Department to confront him in court?"
Haitang hesitated for a while and said: "Father, I'm sorry, we didn't bring Yida back.
In order to fight against his inner demons, he cut off an arm and lost too much blood. In addition, he lost all his martial arts after taking Shaolin's 'Buddha Demon Eliminator Pills', and now his body is extremely weak.
If we take him on a long journey to Kyoto and add the interference from Dongchang, he will definitely die."
Zhu Wuwu frowned: "I cut off my arm. Is this true?"
"It's absolutely true. On that day, big brother, Cheng Shifei, the princess was there, and Haitang was willing to guarantee it with his life." Haitang said with certainty.
"If I can cut off one of my arms and get rid of my inner demons, it's worth it.
However, that day in the royal study room, in front of six important ministers and academicians, I made a promise that if I ever go out to harm anyone with my sword again, I would willingly accept the crime of implication and be taken into the prison without mercy.
The emperor asked me personally a few days ago. Although he gave me a few days, I understand and you should understand too.
He just wanted to show his royal so-called kindness and filial piety." Zhu said solemnly.
"Ah, what should we do? How about I take Yida to Kyoto and go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to bring him to justice!" Haitang panicked.
Zhu Wuwu shook his head: "No, I have to go this time.
He was seriously injured by a knife. Even if he could come to Kyoto alive, he would definitely be imprisoned. With Liu Jin's methods, would he still have a way to survive?
One knife and one death. If we leave any confessions before death, the result will still be the same. Hulong Villa will still be implicated, and it will be even more detrimental to us when the time comes.
Moreover, Dr. Sai said that if Su Xin takes the second natural cardamom, it will only last for one year. Do you think Cao Zhengchun will let me go?"
Shangguan Haitang was even more panicked: "If Cao Zhengchun destroys the third heavenly fragrant cardamom, then Miss Su Xin will definitely die!"
Zhu Wulan looked at her in surprise.
Were they always called Cao gelding dogs in the past?
After thinking for a while, Shenhou sighed: "Oh! Yes.
It seems that my adoptive father will not be able to escape this prison sentence this time. I only hope that the emperor will spare his life for the sake of my loyal service to the court these years.
From now on, even if I live a simple life, being able to spend the second half of my life with Su Xin peacefully is enough to comfort me."
Haitang was shocked and knelt down directly, shouting: "Father, are you going to wrong yourself like this just for a word of love?"
If Hulong Villa collapses and Dongchang becomes the dominant family, it will be a catastrophe for the common people.
You can't think about the innocent people in the world, they are already having a hard time!"
Zhu ignored the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers and remained silent for a long time. He turned around and touched Haitang's hair, and said slowly: "Everything has feelings. Your adoptive father is also a human being. How can you avoid this?
Yes, if a person is ruthless and unrighteous, he can save a lot of pain, but if he becomes like grass, trees and stones and has no feeling at all, then what is the meaning of survival?
Although Yidao is usually cold and doesn't say a word, he has been following me since he was eight years old, and it has been twenty years in the blink of an eye. How can I bear to watch him die?
Su Xin is my youth, beauty, and dream! If she hadn’t been half-handled by me, she would have had decades of wonderful life, so how could I watch him pass away?"
"But, foster father!" Shangguan Haitang was so anxious that tears flowed out.
Serving the imperial court and being loyal to the country has been her lifelong belief from childhood to adulthood. But at this moment, she had to watch her adoptive father being sent to Dongchang by the emperor and narrowly escaped death.
"Hey!" Zhu Wulan raised his hand and said with a smile: "Besides, the people of Li.
Do you think they can’t survive without my iron-courage god Hou Zhu Yilan, do you? I don’t think so.
You should have read a lot of history books. Looking at the past dynasties, no matter who wins or who loses, do you think the people care? They don't care at all.
These people know what is right and wrong! As long as the person they kill has a higher status and wealth than them, they will be secretly happy.
Tomorrow the emperor kills me, the iron-courage god Hou Zhuwu, and the people of Kyoto cheer. The day after tomorrow, he kills Liu Jin, the governor of the East Factory, and the people of Kyoto also cheer."
Shangguan Haitang was a little hard to accept: "Father, there are people who care. Many people we have helped at Hulong Villa care. I beg you, we must have other ways.
How about I go to the palace and beg the emperor to ask him to be more generous for the sake of your devoted father's hard work all your life?"
Zhu Wuwu turned his back and shook his head: "No need, I have made up my mind.
Haitang, you go down and rest first, I need to sort out the copywriting in my hands. Before I go to apologize, I still have many tasks to entrust you!"
Haitang's eyes were filled with tears, she was silent for a long time, then she clasped her fists and said, "Yes!"
There is so much helplessness in life, and the most painful thing at this time is that you are powerless.
…
Two days later, Hulong Villa, backyard.
Su Xin sat alone at the table, crying silently.
Zhu Wulan walked into the door slowly and looked deeply at his sweetheart: "Su Xin, I'm really sorry."
Su Xin was a little surprised: "Why do you say that? You haven't done anything sorry to me."
"How could it not be? I have done at least three things that I'm sorry for you about.
Back then, I gave you half a slap and made you coma for 20 years. This was the first incident. In the past 20 years, I couldn’t find the fragrant cardamom to heal you, so you could only suffer from the cold. This is the second incident.
pieces.
You have been in a coma for twenty years and have only woken up for a month. I will leave you and leave you alone to worry and fear. This is the third thing."
Zhu Wuliu said in a deep voice with a guilty look on his face.
Su Xin wiped away her tears, stepped forward and said softly: "I never thought about it like this. Without you, I would have died twenty years ago.
Now every morning when I wake up and see the bright sunshine outside, I will thank God and thank you, because every day I have is given to me by you."
Zhu ignored Lao Huai's consolation: "It's great that you didn't blame me!"
Su Xin nodded: "The reason why I cried just now was not because of myself, but because I was worried about you. Although your martial arts skills are superb, now villains are in charge. I'm really scared. I'm afraid they don't know what tricks they can use to harm you."
The Lord Shen stepped forward, put his hands on Su Xin's slender shoulders, and stared at her affectionately.
"Su Xin, throughout my entire life, only people have been afraid of me and hated me, but no one has ever been so worried about my safety.
For decades, I have always thought that you only have ancient three links in your heart. Only today do I know that I still have a share.
Su Xin, your tears are what I want in my life. With you, even if there are tigers and wolves in front of you, I, Zhu Zhu, will not be afraid at all!"
Su Xin's eyes were filled with tears: "Promise me that no matter how long you stay in the prison, you will come out intact!"
Zhu ignored the smile and was very confident: "Don't worry, there is only Liu Jin and Cao Zhengchun, they are just chickens and dogs. How can they knock me down!"
"That's good!" Su Xin stepped forward and hugged her tightly.
She was so scared that she would never know anyone again in this world.
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhu Wuli comforted him, but his heart was full of joy.
The country and the beauty are about to be at your fingertips!
Life is about to be complete!
…
Dongchang Tianlao, entrance.
Since its establishment, this place has been extremely deserted. All the officials in the court, Chinese, and military, whenever they talk about this place, their expressions will change dramatically.
Very few people who come in get out alive.
Here, killing is done without blood!
Cheng Shifei and Princess Yunluo stood in front of them swaggeringly.
"Stop, where did you come from, and what are you doing? The prison is a tight place, no trespassing is allowed!" Someone stopped him directly.
As a guard of the East Factory, he is naturally very skilled and has a high status. The idle relatives of the emperor do not even pay attention to them.
Kill first and report later, with the royal power's permission, this is Dongchang!
"Meow~" A little yellow cat emerged from Yun Luo's heart, with a golden sign hanging around its neck, with four big characters drawn in iron and silver hooks on it: [As if I were here in person].
As soon as the guard saw the little yellow cat, he quickly lowered his head and bowed: "Old ancestor!"
Cheng Shifei chuckled: "I brought Master Le to visit the Lord Shen in Tianlao. Do you have any opinions?"
The guards looked at each other, stepped aside, lowered their heads, bent down, and stretched out their hands: "Please!"
Cheng Shifei was astonished: "People outside say that the factory guards here are all cruel and inhumane. They can't eat without beating two people to death every day.
I don’t think so, everyone is very polite and easy to deal with.”
guard:.
If the ancestors hadn't been here, if I hadn't pooped you out today, you would have pooped clean in the morning!
As we walked forward, the sky inside the prison became darker and darker.
"Help~" "Help me!" "I was wronged~" "Ah!"
Damp, dark, rancid, all kinds of moaning sounds, and bloody prisoners in every cell.
The more Cheng and Fei walked, the more frightened they became, and they even leaned close to each other unknowingly.
It's too scary here. Let alone living here, even if they stand outside, they feel like they will have nightmares when they go back at night.
"If it's going to happen, let's forget it. I'm afraid!" Yun Luo looked around nervously.
Cheng Shifei was also a little hesitant, but thinking of the little yellow cat on his wife's heart, he immediately plucked up the courage.
"What are you afraid of? I'm not bragging. There are many people in the world who can defeat me, but they are definitely not here in Dongchang!
If there is any danger then, you can hide behind me and watch your husband show off my power!"
"Okay, okay!" Yun Luo felt that there seemed to be miasma and poison in the prison. Unknowingly, her teeth were knotted, and her legs even felt the urge to urinate, and her legs began to stiffen.
Poison? This Dongchang really doesn’t care about martial ethics!
"Bang!" The prisoner next to him suddenly rushed over and grabbed Cheng Shifei's clothes.
"Ah!" Cheng Shifei was so frightened that he jumped three feet high and disappeared instantly.
Yunluo:.
Little yellow cat:
I was originally planning to evolve, but was defeated by laziness again, woo woo woo~
