The third prince looked at Chen Danzhu, sadness flashed in his eyes.
"Danzhu, I actually guessed that I couldn't hide this from you." He said softly, "But I have no choice. I can't miss this opportunity."
"What chance? What chance is it to kill the general?" Chen Danzhu gritted his teeth and shouted in a low voice, trying to rush towards him, but Zhou Xuan reached out and grabbed her.
Xiao Bai also took a step forward, the green light of a dagger flashing in his cuffs, and the woman shouted out——
The third prince said: "Step back."
Xiaobai lowered his hands and stepped back.
Chen Danzhu looked at him: "You -" She looked at Zhou Xuan who was holding her, "Do you want to kill me and silence me? It's not very convenient here, it's a military camp outside."
Her eyes fell on Xiao Bai again. Although Xiao Bai retreated, he retreated to the door with a posture of strict defense.
Zhou Xuan sneered: "Chen Danzhu, you don't have to worry, there are also my soldiers and horses in the military camp."
Chen Danzhu looked at him: "Yes, the Marquis does not need to marry a princess and does not need to be a consort. He has the military power in his hands and is invincible with thousands of troops."
Zhou Xuan was immediately furious: "Chen Danzhu! You are talking nonsense!" He grabbed Chen Danzhu's shoulders, "You clearly know that this is not why I don't want to be your consort!"
The young man was probably really anxious. His hands were like iron pliers, and the girl's spy's shoulders were almost cut off. Chen Danzhu did not cry out in pain, but just sneered: "Yes, Mr. Hou did it for me, for my notorious reputation."
A woman who will not hesitate to offend His Majesty and be a pure minister who does not cling to royal power!"
The young man's eyes turned red with anger: "Chen Danzhu——"
The third prince stepped forward, grabbed him and shouted: "Zhou Xuan! Let go!"
When they were talking before, both Chen Danzhu and Zhou Xuan deliberately lowered their voices. Now they started shouting in an argument but did not suppress it. Commander A Tianli and Feng Lin Zhu Lin, who were standing outside the tent, all heard it.
Tian's face is anxious, Zhu Lin's expression is blank - he has always been like this since he learned that the general was ill. Commander Li's face is calm, why should he not be a consort, why should he be for me, tsk tsk, you can guess what he is saying without having to hear clearly, these young people
Young men and women, that's all.
Feng Lin was absent-minded and kept looking towards the Chinese army camp. Sure enough, he saw someone waving to him not long after, and Feng Lin immediately ran away as if he was flying.
"Hey." A Tian wanted to stop him, "then our lady——"
Will the young lady go to see the general? She was arguing with Zhou Xuan and the third prince in the camp. Did she not want Zhou Xuan and the third prince to go together?
Zhou Xuan was pushed away by the third prince, and Chen Danzhu was weak and staggered. The third prince reached out to help her, but the girl immediately stepped back and looked at him warily.
The third prince only felt heartache and slowly lowered his hands. Although he had guessed about this scene, seeing it in real life was still a hundred times more painful than he imagined.
"Danzhu." He said softly, "I have no choice -"
There were tears in Chen Danzhu's eyes, but they never fell. She knew that the third prince suffered and knew that the third prince had hatred, but——: "What does that have to do with the general? You have a grudge with the fifth prince, and you have a grudge with the queen.
Qiu, even if you hate the emperor for being ruthless, and there is always someone to blame, but he is a veteran general who has devoted his life to the country, why are you killing him?"
The third prince said: "Danzhu, the general is the country's general, not mine."
Chen Danzhu was surprised and disappointed at the same time. She couldn't help but laugh: "If it's not yours, are you going to kill it? Then it seems that I, Chen Danzhu, won't survive today."
The third prince looked at her, his gentle eyes full of pleading: "Danzhu, you know, I can't do it, don't say that."
Chen Danzhu slowly shook his head: "I, Chen Danzhu, don't know the heights of the world. I thought I knew everything. It turned out that I didn't know anything. It was all because of my self-righteousness. The only thing I know now is what I thought before.
,all fake."
The chance encounter at Dingyun Temple, the hawthorn fruit kept for her, and the fact that he came to Lord Zhou’s banquet to see her were all lies. Finally, a tear fell from the girl’s big eyes, like a pearl.
.
The third prince felt great pain in his heart, and stretched out his hands to hold the pearl to prevent it from falling to the ground and shattering in the dust.
"Danzhu, it's not fake -" he said.
Before he finished speaking, Feng Lin's shout came from outside the camp, "Miss Danzhu—Miss Danzhu—"
The third prince and Zhou Xuan both looked at the door. Xiao Bai, who was guarding the door, tensed up. Was he exposed? The guard was about to rush in——
Fenglin smashed in like a stone. It did not hit the third prince as Xiaobai expected. Instead, it stopped and looked at Chen Danzhu. The young general's face was deformed: "Miss Danzhu, General he——"
Chen Danzhu looked at him, her body trembling slightly. She heard her own voice asking: "What's wrong with him, General?"
Fenglin's voice was strangely long, "General, he passed away——"
Chen Danzhu couldn't hear anything for a moment. He saw Zhou Xuan and the third prince rushing towards Fenglin. He saw Atian Zhulin, the governor of Li County, crowding in. County Sheriff Li waved the imperial edict, and Atian rushed over to hug her. Zhulin grabbed her.
Shaking in the maple forest and asking——
Chen Danzhu threw A Tian away, squeezed through the chaos at the door and rushed out. Someone seemed to be trying to hold her back. I don't know if it was Zhou Xuan or the third prince, or whoever it was, but they didn't hold her back. Chen Danzhu rushed
Got out.
what happened?
General, why, will he die?
People and horses were running around in the military camp, and layers of dust were raised near and far away, and in the blink of an eye, the military camp covered the sky and the sun.
"What's going on!" Wang Xian grabbed a person in a group of soldiers and horses that were covering the sky, and shouted in a low voice, "Why is he dead? Those people haven't come in yet! They haven't seen anything clearly yet!"
Wasn't it clearly agreed? Why did he suddenly change his mind? Instead of the Sixth Prince lying on the bed pretending to be poisoned, he was directly replaced with the body of the pretended Iron Mask General that had been prepared long ago.
This is a prisoner who has committed a serious crime. He was carefully selected by Wang Xian and promised to spare his family's sins. The prisoner had his face cut open a long time ago and has been quietly following Wang Xian, waiting for his death.
moment.
Suddenly Fenglin said that the general wanted to close his eyes and die immediately, which almost caught him off guard and made him panic for a while.
What are you doing!
The person caught by Wang Xian was surrounded by several black armored soldiers. He was wrapped in a black cloak and his hood covered his head and face. Only his smooth chin and lips could be seen. He raised his head slightly, revealing a young face.
"Miss Danzhu has seen it clearly," he said.
Feng Lin said that Miss Danzhu stopped on the way to see him. First she didn't allow anyone else to follow her, and then she simply said she didn't want to see him anymore and ran back. What does this mean? It means she saw it.
Yes, how could she not see it?
He smiled crookedly: "You can see the difference, how could Miss Danzhu not see it?"
Wang Xian felt that this was a bit awkward: "I can do anything? It sounds like I'm not as good as her? Why do I vaguely remember that you praised me as better than Miss Danzhu before?"
But that’s not important now! What’s important is——
"Why do you care so much?" Wang Xian said angrily, "Even if Miss Danzhu sees it, she can't stop them. Since they are here today, they will not give up."
"How can that be done?" The Sixth Prince said flatly, "That way Miss Danzhu will think that she led them here and she killed me. Then she will be very sad."
He turned around and looked back, and across the dust and the crowd of soldiers and horses that covered the sky, he could faintly see the girl running wildly, stumbling——
