Although Li Honghan was forcibly pulled out by Yang Haoran, his anger was still as uncontrollable as a volcano erupting. Although it was his father's decision, he felt like he had lost everything, lost Xichuan, lost his status, lost his power, and lost his dream! He
He had already regarded himself as the future master of Xichuan, but before his wish was fulfilled, his father was about to give away all the things that should belong to him. How could Li Honghan be willing to do so?
Yang Haoran dragged Li Honghan to the courtyard next door. Li Honghan struggled to free his arm and roared: "It's not your turn as an outsider to interfere in our family's affairs!"
Yang Haoran sighed and said: "Brother, although I am an outsider, the commander-in-chief treats me with great kindness. I will go through fire and water for the Li family even if I sacrifice my life."
Li Honghan has always had a good relationship with Yang Haoran. What he said just now was made out of anger and he said it indiscriminately. After saying it, he felt a little regretful in his heart. He turned around and punched the big tree hard.
! With a sound, the bark of the tree dented, and the leaves fell due to the strong vibration. His face was distorted by pain, and he lowered his voice and said: "Haoran, you are not me, how can you understand my pain? Dad wants to
Send the King of Zhou back to Dakang, and take us to surrender to Dakang!"
Yang Haoran exclaimed behind Li Honghan: "What? Impossible, how could my adoptive father make such an unwise choice? In the past, Xichuan was strong and Dakang was in decline. If he brought Xichuan to submit, he would be valued, and maybe he could enjoy glory.
To ensure a healthy life, but with the current situation in Xichuan, even if the imperial court accepts our surrender, it will not take us seriously, not to mention that we have been in opposition to the imperial court before, and even put the King of Zhou under house arrest. Who can guarantee that
, after we surrender, the imperial court will not retaliate against us?"
These words touched Li Honghan's heart. He nodded heavily and said, "You and I have thought of something. I also advised dad in the same way, but instead of listening, he insulted me. I really don't know what he felt in his heart.
"
Yang Haoran said: "Actually, the adoptive father made such a choice because he had no choice. There is a saying that I don't know whether to say or not. Since the death of Mr. Zhang, the adoptive father has become hesitant in doing things. After the defeat of Yunyang, this
This situation is becoming more and more serious. The previous earthquake caused heavy casualties. My adoptive father seems to have completely lost confidence. In fact, we still have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and millions of people in Xichuan. The terrain is difficult and the fields are thousands of miles away. As long as we survive the difficult situation before us,
, there is still a chance for revival, but it is a pity that the adoptive father no longer has the ambition of the past. Once a person loses his confidence, he will naturally have no fighting spirit." He sighed and said: "Brother, since the adoptive father has already
A decision has been made, and you and I have no choice but to obey it."
Li Honghan shook his head heavily and said: "No, why should we give up the foundation we worked so hard to create to Dakang? This Xichuan is not only my father's, it is also a world created by brothers who shed their lives and blood.
How can you give it away for free just because of his words?"
Yang Haoran patted Li Honghan on the shoulder and said: "Brother, no one in Xichuan can change the decision made by my foster father."
Li Honghan bit his lip so hard that blood oozed out. He was unwilling to give in.
Yang Haoran lowered his voice and said: "Actually, there is another way..."
Li Honghan turned to Yang Haoran, his eyes full of expectation.
Yang Haoran said: "My foster father thinks that Dakang can accept us, but if the court thinks that we are not worthy of forgiveness, then the commander-in-chief will naturally give up."
Li Honghan immediately remembered something after his reminder, and his eyes shot out with murderous intent: "Long Yefang!" If they kill Long Yefang, they will naturally become the unforgivable sinners of Dakang, and then his father's plan to surrender will be solved.
If everything fails, Dakang will regard them as eternal enemies, and only this method can save Xichuan.
Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other. When happiness is about to come to a person, misfortune will come to him silently. Long Yefang was imprisoned for seven years and finally looked forward to the day of freedom. After he was convinced that Li Tianheng had not deceived him,
He seemed to be suddenly reborn, busy bathing, changing clothes, and preparing to pack. Although Long Yefang was now the most likely prince of Dakang to inherit the throne, he did not have any ambition for the throne in his heart. He just wanted to return to his hometown as soon as possible and settle down.
Just live quietly, he won't care even if he doesn't have royal status.
There was a gentle knock on the door, and Long Yefang stopped what he was doing and said warily: "Who?"
The voice of guard Qi Jingcheng came from outside, and Long Yefang breathed a sigh of relief. Seven years of imprisonment had made him cautious and overly vigilant in everything.
After getting his permission, Qi Jingcheng opened the door and walked in. Also coming in with him was Xichuan Marshal Li Honghan.
Seeing Li Honghan, Long Yefang couldn't help but be a little surprised. Li Honghan rarely came to Qiuhua Palace on weekdays. He had an unspeakable fear of Li Honghan. After all, when he fell into the hands of the Li family, it was Li Honghan who personally carried out the execution. He was a little panicked.
Said: "General Li... is here."
Li Honghan laughed loudly, looked at Long Yefang and said, "His Royal Highness, King Zhou, is much more energetic today. He is indeed in high spirits during happy events. By the way, I forgot to congratulate you!" He hugged Long Yefang's fists.
.
Long Yefang forced out a smile and said, "Why are you so happy?"
Li Honghan said: "I am glad to hear that His Highness is returning to Kangdu, so Honghan specially came to see you off at the command of his father!" He winked at Qi Jingcheng, who said: "Come in!"
But a guard came in carrying a tray. There was a pot of wine and three wine glasses on the tray.
After Qi Jingcheng took it, the guard retreated.
Li Honghan grabbed the wine pot and slowly filled the three cups, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Zhou has been in Xichuan for seven years. During these seven years, our Li family treated you quite well. I wonder what King Zhou feels in his heart?"
He picked up a glass of wine and handed it to Long Yefang.
Long Yefang looked at the glass of wine with a look of fear on his face. He swallowed and his Adam's apple moved up and down.
Li Honghan saw the fear in his heart and laughed: "Your Highness is worried that the wine is poisonous? Well, I'll do it first as a token of respect!" He raised his head and drank the glass of wine, then picked up another glass and sent it to Long Ye.
In front of Fang.
Long Yefang said in a trembling voice: "I...I stopped drinking..."
Li Honghan seemed to have heard the most ridiculous thing in the world and burst out laughing.
Long Yefang said: "I...I swore to God...I swore a poisonous oath...if I...drink again, my intestines will be pierced and I will die..."
Li Honghan nodded: "It's really poisonous. It seems I can't force you to drink." He drank the glass of wine and walked slowly towards Long Ye.
Long Yefang was so frightened that he backed away repeatedly.
Li Honghan said: "Your Highness, have you ever thought about it, if I really want to kill you, why would I go to all the trouble of poisoning the wine?" He picked up the third glass of wine: "His Royal Highness, King Zhou, wouldn't even be willing to do this to save face.
give it to me?"
Zhou Wang Long Ye looked at the glass of wine that was brought to him again. He finally made up his mind and took the glass of wine tremblingly.
Li Honghan said: "Your Highness drinks this glass of wine, and I will send you out."
"Where to go?"
"Where you should be!"
Long Yefang drank the glass of wine without hesitation.
Li Honghan took the wine glass in his hand and said softly: "Why don't you stick to it to the end? In fact, this wine bottle has a mystery. The first two glasses of wine were fine, but this last glass of wine..." He sneered, and then lightly lifted the glass.
Throw it lightly to the ground.
Long Yefang suddenly felt like a knife in his stomach. The pain made him cover his stomach and kneel on the ground.
Li Honghan looked down at him, raised his hands in an extremely innocent manner, curled his lips and said, "It has nothing to do with me. You swore a poisonous oath to yourself. If I were you, you wouldn't drink this glass of wine."
"You...you are not afraid of me...my Dakang army will...raze Xichuan to the ground..."
Li Honghan sneered and said: "Afraid! I'm really scared, but only if they have the ability. Even if they have the ability, they still have to care about your life." He raised his foot and knocked Long Yefang to the ground.
Then he drew his sword.
Qi Jingcheng was deeply puzzled when he saw the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but remind him: "Young Marshal..." In his opinion, Long Yefang had already drank the poisonous wine, so there was no need to take action again.
Li Honghan struck down with his sword.
When Li Tianheng heard the news that King Zhou had been killed, he was shocked beyond words. He couldn't restrain his inner anger and shouted: "Catch that traitor!"
"No need to bother!" Li Honghan walked in slowly and threw Long Yefang's bloody head on the ground, rolling to Li Tianheng's feet.
Li Tianheng's eyes were about to burst, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Gui Zi, do you know that you harmed Xichuan?"
Li Honghan said: "There is someone else who harmed Xichuan. Dad, Long Yefang is already dead. What else do you have to bargain with Dakang?"
Li Tianheng said angrily: "I'll kill you, you beast!" He drew out his sword and rushed towards Li Honghan, slashing at Li Honghan with one strike.
Li Honghan snorted coldly, and with a sway of his steps, a shadow flashed in front of Li Tianheng, and he struck the air with his sword.
Li Honghan slowly shook his head and said: "I am your son, and you actually killed me?"
Li Tianheng said: "I don't have a son like you! You'd better be obedient and let me catch you. I will send you to Dakang to plead guilty!"
"You are such a fool!" Li Honghan roared: "I am your son! You actually want to give me to the court?"
Li Tianheng swung his sword down again.
Li Honghan picked up Li Tianheng's long sword, and the strong physical force made Li Tianheng's arms numb. Li Tianheng's expression was full of astonishment. He didn't know when his son's martial arts had advanced to such an extent. Li Tianheng glared at Li Honghan and said: "You can't bear the people of Xichuan because of you.
Are you falling into trouble for your own selfish interests?"
Li Honghan blocked Li Tianheng's sword attack, and then struck hard. The powerful attack force made Li Tianheng take three steps back, and he could hardly hold the sword in his hand.
