In order not to expose their identities, Murong Xuan and Qin Hongsu did not go to the imperial city to meet him. Instead, they had been waiting in the imperial study room since the morning.
Without Long Chenyi's order, no one can enter the imperial study. Murong Xuan has Long Chenyi's token in his hand, as well as the letter sent by Long Chenyi before returning home, so he can enter and exit the imperial study without being blocked.
"See your Majesty, long live your Majesty."
As soon as Long Chen entered the imperial study, Murong Xuan and Qin Hongsu came forward and knelt down to salute.
"Stay flat, no need to be polite." Long Chen also stepped forward and helped the ugly-looking Qin Hongsu up. Qin Hongsu pulled out a smile and said: "Congratulations to the emperor for regaining Lianyun Jiangshan, returning to the dynasty with great victory, and unifying the world, just around the corner.
.”
Qin Hongsu was really happy that Long Chen was able to defeat her father-in-law and come back, but she also felt sorry for her disciple. She had only been a disciple her whole life, and now her country and family were destroyed and she was reduced to a prisoner. Just thinking about it made her eyes swell.
She turned red and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Senior Qin" Long Chen also sighed secretly. He didn't know how to comfort Qin Hongsu, so he just patted Qin Hongsu's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Here comes someone."
"Your Majesty, this servant is here." Haiqi pushed open the door and entered the royal study, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
"Take Senior Qin and Alliance Leader Murong to visit Prince Liancheng." Long Chen also ordered expressionlessly, and Hai Qi hurriedly said: "This is the Emperor, Senior Qin, Alliance Leader Murong, please come with me."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Qin Hongsu thanked Long Chenyi, she followed Haiqi out of the imperial study. Murong Xuan frowned, walked up to Long Chenyi, and said: "At this time, what Liancheng least wants to see is
Former old friend!"
Long Chen also glanced at Murong Xuan, walked to the desk and sat down, took a sip of the tea just served by the eunuch, and Murong Xuan also sat on the chair beside him, "How do you plan to deal with Liancheng."
Long Chen also put down Hezhong's cup, put his hands on the desk, crossed his fingers and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said in an emotionless tone: "Three years, give him three years, if, three years later -
"
These words seemed to have no beginning and no end, and I didn't know what they meant, but Murong Xuan understood clearly that three years was not a long time. It was the time for Liancheng to observe filial piety for his father and the country, and it was also the time for Liancheng to think peacefully.
Three years later, Liancheng's filial piety period expired, and he sharpened his hatred for Long Chenyi and the dynasty in his heart. Liancheng could be free. If Liancheng's knot was unresolved, he would have to spend the rest of his life in prison -
—
Long Chenyi's decision was absolutely merciful. No prince could survive falling into the hands of the enemy, but even if he survived, he would suffer endless humiliation.
Therefore, Murong Xuan was very pleased with Long Chenyi's decision, and he was also sincerely happy for Liancheng. He nodded, showing a relaxed smile, and said: "As a member of the royal family, Liancheng understands, I believe
he!"
Murong Xuan was right. Liancheng understood how cruel it was to fight for the world. How many people had to be sacrificed and how many blood and bones were trampled before he could conquer the world. He also knew that Long Chen also led the troops to seize Lianyun's country because he was Liancheng.
Yun Guo forced it.
It is reasonable for Long Chenyi to seize the country and kill the previous emperor. Besides, his father did not die under Long Chenyi's coercion, but died under the poison he made. He had nothing to do with Long Chenyi.
It doesn't matter.
The reason why he felt hatred in his heart was because of his own incompetence, which led to the destruction of Lianyun's country. He hated himself for watching the country's collapse but could do nothing. He hated himself for not knowing what kind of mentality he should face in the future.
Long Chen also.
Long Chen was also right from the beginning to the end. The only mistake was that they were both born in the royal family, and they were both responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Therefore, they had no choice——
He knew very well the reason why Long Chenyi did not kill him, but imprisoned him in the sky prison, but he would not be grateful to him——
"Senior Qin, the cell in front of you is the cell where Prince Liancheng is imprisoned." Haiqi brought Qin Hongsu to Liancheng's cell. The cell leader immediately stepped forward and opened the chains. Qin Hongsu thanked Haiqi and the cell leader.
After seeing Haiqi and the cell leader retreating, he pushed aside the chains and entered the cell.
"Master." Before Qin Hongsu could speak, Liancheng had already spoken first, stood up from the ground and walked towards Qin Hongsu, "Master, why are you here?"
Liancheng looked sluggish and lifeless. His originally bright blue eyes were dim and lifeless, losing their former luster. But when he saw Qin Hongsu, there was still a forced smile on his pale face. Qin Hongsu was shocked.
His eyes were hot, and the tears were like broken beads, falling uncontrollably.
"Cheng'er," Qin Hongsu held Liancheng's hand, looked at Liancheng who had lost a few pounds with distress, and said with self-blame: "It's the master, it's the master who can't forgive you!"
"Master, there is no need to blame yourself. This is fate and has nothing to do with master." This was the first time Liancheng saw Qin Hongsu cry. The war with the dynasty had nothing to do with Qin Hongsu. He had never resented Qin Hongsu for standing there.
On the side of the dynasty, "Master, to fight for the world, someone must shed blood and sacrifice. If a country is destroyed, I am destroyed by the Yun Kingdom. It is God's will. Don't blame yourself."
Liancheng had also seen the Nine Stars Lianzhu half a year ago. Zeng Feige sent a letter to Qin Tianjian to ask what the sign of the Nine Stars Lianzhu was. After hearing the news about the change of ownership in the world, he understood that this world has changed its owner, and that the name of the owner is
, not Grandfather, nor him——
Seeing what Liancheng said, Qin Hongsu felt even more sorry for Liancheng. She knew that Liancheng never showed his emotions easily. Even if he was sad and painful, he would always have a smile on his face.
After losing her family and country, Liancheng must be feeling the pain and sadness in her heart. Now, as a master, she failed to give Liancheng a word of comfort. Instead, she asked Liancheng to comfort her. She shouldn't, shouldn't!
"Cheng'er, if you think so, Master will be relieved." Wiping away her tears, Qin Hongsu pulled Liancheng and sat on the hard couch. Suddenly she felt Liancheng's pulse. Her expression changed and she looked at his wrist. There was no
When she saw the wound, she secretly sighed in relief and comforted: "Your martial arts - Master knows how sad you are. Yi'er did this to protect you -"
Qin Hongsu is from the martial arts world and knows how important martial arts is to those who practice martial arts. However, she also understands that Long Chen also abandoned Liancheng's intention of martial arts. Liancheng is the prince of a subjugated country and possesses martial arts skills. Even if he is arrested,
, there is no way he could survive. The civil and military officials would not allow Liancheng, the subjugated prince, to survive.
Only by turning Liancheng into a useless person, a useless person who is incapable of reviving the country, can Liancheng be left alive in the name of confinement.
Although this way of survival is worse than death for Liancheng, it would be better to give him a happy life with a knife——
But at least, Long Chen is using his own method to preserve Liancheng's life——
