Xue Lingjun was also brought back to reality by the crisp sound of bone cracking. Seeing Dong Bingtai who died tragically on the spot still holding the heads of his two sons tightly, Xue Lingjun's eyes widened in shock. She slowly turned her head to look at his face.
The pale Xue Shengjing stretched out his hand and pointed at Xue Shengjing and said: "It was him...it was he and Li Chenzhou who conspired to kill my mother. Concubine Dong Shu committed suicide because of guilt. It was he who assassinated the emperor with his own hands and framed all the blame on me, the second emperor."
Brother..." Xue Lingjun shed tears as she spoke. She felt that even the night she was most unbearable to look back on could not have been more humiliating or sad. Everything she said was true or false. With her wisdom, she certainly understood what her second brother wanted.
What did you say?
Xue Daohong did indeed die in the hands of Xue Daoming. The palace incident in Ci'en Garden ended with Xue Daohong being killed and Xue Shengjing escaping. As for the so-called will, it was Li Chenzhou who forged it. Xue Lingjun felt that her soul had died. She just wanted to
End this as soon as possible.
I seemed to hear Xue Shengjing's voice angrily calling him a bitch, and I also seemed to hear Xue Shengjing's triumphant laughter.
After Xue Lingjun said what she should say, her consciousness had completely left the scene. She didn't know what she should do? She didn't know where she should go? I don't know who was the first to kneel down, shouting long live, and then civil and military Bai Bai
The officials knelt down one by one.
King Xue Shengjing of Yan finally pretended to sit on the long-awaited dragon chair under the unanimous recommendation of all civil and military officials. There were corpses scattered everywhere in the Tianhe Hall, and blood flowed all over the ground. However, this had no impact at all.
Seeing Xue Shengjing's mood, he looked at everything in front of him with a smile, enjoying the joy of being worshiped by the ministers.
Although Xue Lingjun was present at the scene, he was like a walking corpse. After the massacre, the carnival started again. She didn't know if Da Yong could bear this torment. She didn't know how much time passed before someone came to guide her and brought her to Xue Shengjing.
.
This was a separate palace. Except for their brother and sister, there was no one else in the room. Xue Shengjing lit the candles with his own hands. At this time, Xue Lingjun realized that she had spent a day in confusion. After she testified against Xue Daoming and Li Chenzhou
, what happened? She has no memory at all.
After Xue Shengjing lit the candle, he looked at the dancing orange flames and smiled: "Do you still remember when I took you to sneak out of the palace to watch the lanterns when you were a child?"
Xue Lingjun pursed her lips. At that time, she was simple and happy, and her second brother at that time was warm and close in her heart. However, time has passed and everything has changed. She slowly shook her head and said: "Time
It’s been so long that I don’t remember it at all.”
"Although you don't remember, I remember that after the Lantern Festival that year, I never saw your real smile again. I never understood what happened in the past, but now I know..."
"Shut up!" Xue Lingjun let out an astonishing scream with all his strength.
Xue Shengjing was also frightened by her scream. He was stunned for a moment, and then his little eyes showed a little sympathy. He sighed, sat down at the table, looked at the much haggard girl, and felt that she seemed to be there.
I've aged a lot in one day.
Xue Lingjun seemed to be frightened by herself. After a while, she slowly knelt down.
Xue Shengjing's body tilted forward slightly. He wanted to make a gesture of support, but he quickly gave up the idea and said softly: "What are you doing this for?"
Xue Lingjun said: "Your Majesty, please grant me a death!"
Xue Shengjing said: "I am not the emperor yet. Even if I ascend the throne one day, you don't need to kneel down. In my heart, you will always be my biological sister."
Xue Lingjun said: "I have no relatives in this world for a long time, and the emperor is also the same."
Xue Shengjing was stunned for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said, "Actually, I still have a daughter."
"Sooner or later, you will lose it."
Xue Lingjun's words made Xue Shengjing feel unhappy. He frowned, then turned to look at the beating candlelight: "Among the three of us brothers and sisters, my mother has always favored the eldest brother the most. I know my son better than my mother.
She has always understood my brain and abilities."
Xue Lingjun said: "So she sees that you are unwilling to live under others for a long time..."
"No! I never thought about becoming an emperor, and I never thought about fighting with my eldest brother!" Xue Shengjing's voice became excited. This matter was a gap he could never get around. Whenever he mentioned this matter
, he will become uncontrollably excited.
"They forced me! In order to prevent me from competing with him for the throne, my eldest brother even arranged for a singer to be given to me. When I fell in love with that singer, she also fell in love with me and gave birth to children for me. Then he told me about the matter.
I will tell my father secretly, so that my father will be extremely disappointed in me!"
Xue Lingjun sighed and said: "If you really like your wife and children, why don't you dare to go with them? You are not afraid of death, you are reluctant to part with the fame and fortune, and you are reluctant to part with Dayong's imperial power!"
Xue Shengjing looked at Xue Lingjun coldly, but his hands were tightly grasping the armrests of the seat, and he was trying his best to control the anger in his heart.
Xue Lingjun stood up at this time: "Actually, what you care about most in your heart is the throne, but you have been deceiving yourself all this time and keep telling yourself that you are a victim, you are a good husband, and you are
A good father, it’s your elder brother who pushed you to this point, it’s your father and queen who pushed you to this point, in fact, all of them are just excuses for you to seize power.”
Xue Shengjing's eyes were extremely cold, and he suddenly laughed arrogantly: "I didn't expect that you are still defending that beast. It seems that the things he did to you back then were not forced."
Xue Lingjun felt as if she had been severely whipped deep in her heart. She bit her lip with all her strength. Her lip had been bitten and blood was flowing down the corner of her lip.
Instead of feeling unbearable, Xue Shengjing felt a sense of revenge in his heart. He whispered: "My mother must know about this, but instead of seeking justice for you, she advised you to endure the humiliation and bear the burden of the family scandal, right?"
?”
Xue Lingjun looked at Xue Shengjing with hatred, it turned out that human nature can be so ugly: "Why don't you kill me?"
Xue Shengjing said: "Although Dayong's land is very large and can accommodate tens of millions of people, it can only accommodate one emperor. You and I are just abandoned sons of the family!"
Xue Lingjun smiled miserably and said: "You have got what you wanted, why are you still telling me this? I have no use value to you anymore."
Xue Sheng nodded and agreed with her words. He pondered for a moment and whispered, "Do you know where the rosary that your mother recited is?"
Xue Lingjun took off a rosary hanging from his neck, handed it to him, and then said: "I always wear this one close to my body, and the remaining one hundred and seven are all in my house, hidden on the screen of Fengqi Wutong.
Inside."
Xue Shengjing took the rosary, and the light in his little eyes became brighter.
Xue Lingjun said: "Can you grant me death?"
Xue Shengjing rubbed the bead with his stubby fingers and whispered: "Wait until I find all the beads."
"Do I have a chance to see Li Chenzhou one last time before I die?"
The movements of Xue Shengjing's hands suddenly stopped. He looked at Xue Lingjun with some confusion. After a while, he said: "He is in the Duke Jingguo's Mansion!"
Leaving green mountains without fear of running out of firewood is what Li Chenzhou thought when he successfully escaped from the palace. He thought that at least the southern navy of Dayong was still in his hands. As long as he could escape from Yongdu, he would have a chance to make a comeback. However,
When he felt that his entire right rib began to become sore and numb, and he gradually lost consciousness, he began to realize that he had been poisoned. No wonder One-Armed Man and Shi Kuan did not follow him. Li Chenzhou's pace became slower and slower, and Qiu Xiangguang, the sword palace leader, led
A group of disciples followed him, but they were not in a hurry to get closer and chased him into the Li Ancestral Hall of the Duke of Jingguo.
The toxicity began to take effect gradually. Li Chenzhou looked at the memorial tablets inside the ancestral hall but never dared to enter. He just stood in the courtyard and let the wind and snow blow. He felt that his whole body began to be paralyzed, and the strength and warmth were being pulled out of his body. Finally,
His legs could no longer bear the strength of his body, and he knelt down in the snow, facing the direction of the ancestral hall. The light was dim and he could not see the tablets of his ancestors, but the names of his ancestors flashed in his mind.
His efforts fell short. If he had been more decisive and cruel, perhaps the outcome would never have been like this. Li Chenzhou was unwilling to give up. He was unwilling to die like this, but in reality, he had no chance.
The kind image of my father came to mind. My father endured the humiliation and endured the heavy burden. He left his hometown for decades and finally ended up in such a miserable end. Dakang had already imprisoned him, and Dayong had labeled him a traitor. He was loyal to the country but there was no fair explanation.
, in the history of Dayong, the father may always have to bear such humiliation.
He originally wanted to fight with his back to reverse the situation. Only by controlling Dayong's power could he have a chance to save his father. However, everything he had worked hard for was ruined in Xue Daoming's hands. He would never have a chance, and his father would never have a chance again.
Li Chenzhou's eyes became hazy. He seemed to see a white figure walking towards him. When he saw the thin dress and the pale face, his heart melted! His heart suddenly tightened and he almost blurted out,
But the white dress suddenly turned red in his field of vision, as red as blood.
Li Chenzhou's breathing became rapid and heavy. He shook his head vigorously, trying desperately to see everything in front of him clearly, but his vision became increasingly blurry.
The sound of footsteps reminded him that the visitor had already walked in front of him, and he smelled the familiar body fragrance, Xue Lingjun? She, how could she have the nerve to see him? Did she come to ridicule him and see his own jokes? Did she want to do it with her own hands?
Killing herself to show her loyalty to the court? Li Chenzhou clenched the dagger in his hand.
Xue Lingjun looked at Li Chenzhou, a hero at the end of his life, and felt indescribable sadness in his heart. She single-handedly made Li Chenzhou a real man, and she single-handedly pushed Li Chenzhou into an abyss of eternal destruction.
