These were the two words that came to He Long's mind subconsciously when he looked at Li Chen.
After serving in the army for decades, He Long had gone to the battlefield and killed people, and he had also narrowly escaped death and saved his life among the dead.
Cruel enough, vicious enough, smart enough, all these factors combined led to his current status as the commander-in-chief of Gansu and Shaanxi.
But in the past few decades, He Long has never been as scared as he is now.
He really felt that death was approaching.
After swallowing his saliva, He Long said with difficulty: "Your Highness, please forgive me for not being strict in my humble position. Those generals who dare to offend Your Highness deserve to die."
This sentence made most of the generals and soldiers who followed He Long feel cold.
But Li Chen laughed.
"You are not strict with your subordinates? Is this just that you are not strict with your subordinates?"
He Long's scalp was numb. Until now, he still didn't believe that Li Chen dared to kill him, the commander of Gansu and Shaanxi.
After all, his control over the military power of Gansu and Shaanxi, an important town in the northwest, involves too much involvement and influence, and he cannot be easily touched.
Thinking of this, He Long calmed down and replied: "Your Highness, it is late at night and you are exposed. Even if you are guilty of a low position, you should not let Your Highness freeze outside the city. It is better to go back to the city first. A low position must bear the burden of guilt."
"ha."
Li Chen chuckled lightly and said, "What if I insist on being here to punish you?"
Don’t eat the hard ones, and don’t want the soft ones.
He Long is really riding a tiger now.
He bit the bullet and said, "Your Highness, please think twice."
At this time, He Long regretted his impulsiveness just now. He really shouldn't have angered the prince. Anyway, it was just a matter of obedience and treason. He gave the prince face and was punished for not being able to help Yueyanguan, so maybe this matter would be over.
But now, he was so uncomfortable that he almost vomited blood.
Li Chen closed his eyes slightly and was silent... for one, two, or three breaths.
Opening his eyes again, Li Chen said: "I have thought twice about this."
He Long was stunned and was about to speak when suddenly his body trembled.
Lowering his head with difficulty, He Long looked at the tip of the knife that penetrated his heart and was still stained with thick blood. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning. Finally, he raised his head again. At this time, the corner of his mouth had already
There were blood stains hanging like broken beads.
The heart was instantly punctured, and the blood from the aorta spread into the chest cavity, and then poured out of the corners of the mouth along the trachea and esophagus. Every drop of blood flowing out meant that He Long was one step closer to death.
He looked up at Li Chen very slowly, stretched out his hand to grab Li Chen, and opened his mouth slightly to say something, but scarlet blood spurted out, blocking his throat.
Finally, with a muffled bang, He Long fell on his back and fell heavily in front of Li Chen.
At the same time, He Long's truth was also revealed, and Xu Wei, who was behind He Long, took action himself.
"Disrespect to His Highness is punishable by death."
Xu Wei finished speaking coldly and turned to face the hundreds of elite soldiers.
He Long's death once again aroused the restlessness of the soldiers.
They are not sad, but afraid.
I was afraid that the prince would kill them all in anger.
No one is not afraid of death.
Under the threat of death, normal people will lose their minds, but people who lose their minds can do anything.
So Xu Wei did not hesitate and shouted loudly: "Be alert!"
With a warning sound, all the Jinyi guards took a step forward at the same time, their weapons already pointed at the soldiers.
When the soldiers saw this, they became even more frightened.
They thought the prince was going to kill him.
At this critical moment, an extremely shrill roar came.
