"No, please, don't die..." As the guard slowly closed his eyes, the hand held by Ji Lingxuan suddenly fell down.
She covered her mouth and murmured in a hoarse voice. The voice was so small that she couldn't hear it clearly, but there was clear prayer in her eyes.
At this moment, many people came out of the Chu Palace and began to collect the bodies of the guards who had been killed by the bomb.
Although their movements were still calm and orderly, and most of them had expressionless faces, when they saw their companions die, everyone's eyes turned red involuntarily, and many of them even cried silently.
Compared with them, Ji Lingxuan seemed ruthless and meaningless. So many people sacrificed their lives to protect her, but she did not shed a single tear, and there was no sadness on her face. She just sat in the middle with dull eyes.
However, no one in the Chu Palace would really think that she was heartless and unjust.
If Ji Lingxuan was really a ruthless person, why did he take the initiative to treat the wounded soldiers when he was in the military camp? Why did he provide medicinal materials for the wounded soldiers and help the old, weak and disabled soldiers solve their future placement problems?
Most of the guards in the Chu Palace are Chu family soldiers who followed Chu Yingyi on the battlefield. Although they are not in the military camp at the moment, they still keep in touch with their brothers in the Chu family army camp.
So even if they are not in the military camp, they are still aware of what is going on in the military camp.
Although the appearance of the woman mentioned in the letters was completely different from that of Ji Lingxuan, all the other conditions were in agreement. In addition, the prince was very close to the woman. From this point alone, they could firmly believe that she was their princess.
wrong.
At this moment, when the guards were picking up the body and passing by Ji Lingxuan, they clearly felt sad, but they still did not forget to comfort Ji Lingxuan.
They knew that Ji Lingxuan must be very shocked at this moment, and she must be feeling very painful and guilty in her heart.
"Princess, don't be sad. They died to protect the princess, and it was a well-deserved death."
"They are all doing this voluntarily, and there is no need for the princess to feel sad and blame herself."
"If they knew that the princess was in so much pain, how could they leave in peace."
…
The death of their brothers also made them feel sad and sad, but they did not feel that they were not worthy of their brothers, or that they should not be like this.
If it were them, they would definitely do the same thing.
They were just a group of guards in the Chu Palace. Even after they died, thousands of people stood up.
However, there is only one princess. If the princess dies, they can't imagine what the prince will become like.
The prince once said that unless they give up first, they will never abandon anyone.
For these words of the prince, they are all willing to risk their lives to protect the people the prince cares about.
Although the prince looks cold and cold, he is very affectionate in his heart.
In the past, they followed the prince through life and death on the battlefield. Every time they won a great victory, when everyone gathered together for a celebration banquet, the prince would always leave quietly alone.
At first they thought that the prince was unwilling to celebrate with them. Later, when the deputy general went to look for the prince, they found out that the prince was alone to pay homage to the soldiers who died in the battlefield.
He didn't know what he said to his dead brothers under the moonlight. They only remembered that when the adjutant told them this matter, his eyes became red and he swore allegiance to the prince even more.
At every subsequent celebration banquet, they poured a glass of wine on the brothers who died in battle before starting to celebrate.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the distance.
Soon, a carriage pulled by a luxurious black horse galloped towards the Prince of Chu's Mansion from a distance.
When the people in Prince Chu's Mansion saw the carriage, their eyes suddenly turned red. They all knelt down in front of the carriage and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty..."
All the heartache and pain, all the fear and fear are in that complicated voice.
Before the carriage stopped, a black figure flew out of the carriage.
He completely ignored the wreckage of the palace and the corpses of the guards on the ground, and flew straight towards Ji Lingxuan. When he saw that Ji Lingxuan was safe and sound, his tense heart suddenly relaxed.
Ji Lingxuan looked up blankly, and when she saw Chu Yingyi's familiar face, her eyes quickly filled with tears.
"Why did you come just now..." She clutched the hem of his clothes tightly, and in her hoarse voice, she feebly expressed her grievances and fears.
Tears fell down in response, sliding down his face crazily.
She grabbed the hem of Chu Yingyi's clothes, pressed it against her head, and burst into tears. Thinking of the guards who sacrificed their lives to protect her, she felt that her heart was so blocked that it was difficult to breathe.
"If you had come back earlier, how could they have died? How could they have died trying to save me..." Ji Lingxuan clenched her fist tightly and weakly smashed it towards Chu Yingyi's leg, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault.
It was you who killed them, it was all you, it was all you!"
In order not to make herself feel so guilty and remorseful, she placed all the blame for the deaths of the guards on Chu Yingyi.
However, she did not feel better in her heart. Instead, she became more and more painful and sad, as if countless needles were piercing her heart.
When Chu Yingyi saw Ji Lingxuan crying like a tearful person, her heart suddenly hurt.
At this moment, he had forgotten that he deliberately distanced himself from Ji Lingxuan. He helped her up from the ground distressedly, held her in his arms with pity, and said apologetically, "It's my fault, I came late, don't be sad.
"
When Ji Lingxuan heard Chu Yingyi's comfort, she cried even more sadly. She buried her head in Chu Yingyi's arms and cried hysterically.
Chu Yingyi patted Ji Lingxuan's back gently, silently accompanying and comforting her. His eyes slowly fell on the dead guards behind Ji Lingxuan, and the sadness in his eyes flashed past, making it difficult to detect.
Then, he turned to the guards who were still kneeling on the ground in grief, and said in a deep voice, "Get up, take the dead guards out and bury them properly, and then send someone to inform the people in the house to clean them up tomorrow.
Early in the morning, everyone from the Chu Palace followed me and left the capital."
"Your Majesty?!" Everyone was surprised when they heard this, and looked at Chu Yingyi with surprise and confusion in their eyes.
The Prince of Chu's Mansion was bombed like this, and the Prince actually took everyone out of the capital without saying a word, and also packed up everything in the Mansion. Was he planning to leave forever?
With the character of the prince, it is impossible for him to be scared by others!
Even Ji Lingxuan was confused by Chu Yingyi's words. She poked her head out of his arms, her tearful eyes full of confusion.
Chu Yingyi didn't intend to hide anything, so she directly took out a black object from her sleeve.
When everyone saw it, they were all shocked. Wasn't that thing the culprit that blew up Prince Chu's Mansion into a mess?
How could the prince have such a thing?
Chu Yingyi held the black thing, with a bitter smile on her lips, and said lightly, "The emperor summoned me to the palace today and gave me a lot of these things. He also said that these things are called bombs."
"The emperor said that with this thing, Dachu can enjoy peace without the Chu family army, and it will not be difficult to unify the four kingdoms. The emperor also said that he is the only one in the world who can get these bombs. I, the king, have entered
When I was in the palace, the emperor also gave one to me to play with..."
The bombs just now were all aimed at Ji Lingxuan, and those who died were the soldiers and guards who were closer to her, as well as the people who were encouraged to blow up the Chu Palace. The other people who were watching were almost unharmed.
At this moment, when they heard Chu Yingyi's words, there was a sudden uproar.
If Ji Lingxuan's words just now were just speculation, but now Chu Yingyi's words have clearly pointed out that the mastermind behind the bombing of the Chu Prince's Mansion into this state is undoubtedly the Emperor of Chu! (To be continued)
