Lianhua Manlou

Chapter 63

The lights in the tent are bright, the cups of wine are staggered, and the banquet is in full swing.

The dancers dance elegantly, with white clothes, smiling and looking forward, complaining like complaints, with high temples, surrounded by pearls and emeralds, hibiscus faces, red sleeves, graceful skirts, and intoxicating eyes.

Jiaoxi Wang seemed to be drunk, squinting his eyes slightly and leaning on the back of the chair, smiling foolishly as if falling into some kind of unextricable dream.Until a soldier covered in blood rushed in and said in a hurry: "My lord, it's not good! Ba Shui, the [-] elite soldiers of General Ba Shui Zhu have all died in battle!"

"What did you say?!" The glass cup in King Jiaoxi's hand fell straight to the ground, making a crisp sound, and the dancers screamed and made a mess. "Get out, get out of here!" King Jiaoxi yelled angrily, propping himself up on the table tremblingly, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was vicious.

Staring at the soldier, he said coldly, "You, you, say it again!"

The soldier wiped his face and repeated loudly through gritted teeth: "General Bashui Zhu's [-] elite soldiers are all dead!"

"Impossible!" King Jiaoxi swept all the things on the table to the ground, rushed to him in a few steps and grabbed his collar fiercely, looking crazy: "Impossible, impossible! There are King Qin, King Zhao Standing on the sidelines, isn't it a good news after a few hours?! This king even prepared the celebration wine for them, it's impossible!"

The soldier said: "It's the prince. The prince suddenly transferred King Qin's soldiers away from the two wings, saying that he had other plans. King Zhao retreated before the battle and also withdrew his troops. Only General Zhu didn't know about it, and he was outflanked by the enemy without any precautions." gone."

The king of Jiaoxi threw him fiercely, pulled out his long sword, and asked bitterly: "Where is the son? Where is the son?! Come and find me the son!"

After a long time, when the cutting curtain was lifted, a pale and thin young man walked in with a face full of panic, but it was the prince of Jiaoxi, followed by two mysterious people in cloaks and hoods.

King Jiaoxi was like an enraged beast, smiling sinisterly, with a bloodthirsty light in his eyes, he raised his sword high and gritted his teeth, saying, "You still dare to show up? I'll kill you, you worthless piece of shit!!" After all, he slashed at him in a daze, straight to the face of Prince Jiaoxi's son.

The prince of Jiaoxi screamed in horror, and fell back in a panic, his face was already blue and purple, and he was about to die of fright.I saw a figure standing in front of him quickly, unhurriedly raised his hand and tapped on King Jiaoxi's arm, King Jiaoxi cried out in pain, his hand went numb, the long sword fell out of his hand and landed on the ground, "Ding Dong -" sound.

King Jiaoxi crossed his arms and stared at him. Only one person laughed and said, "It's been a long time since I haven't seen Uncle Wang, and his temper is still so hot. It would be bad if I frighten your Royal Highness."

King Jiaoxi narrowed his eyes, laughed, and said contemptuously, "Who am I? So it's you, a lowly little bastard with a life and no one to raise it!"

Gong Jiu paused, raised her head and said with a sneer, "If I were a little bastard, what would you be? A bastard born to a lowly fan!" The biological mothers of King Jiaoxi and King Jinan were just singers at first, because The first emperor was pregnant when he was still a prince, so he was taken into the palace and given a title.It can be regarded as the humbler one among the many princes.

Gong Jiu supported the shivering prince of Jiaoxi, and smiled lightly: "What are you afraid of him now? My good cousin, look at his current appearance, he is just like a wild dog, isn't he?"

The son of King Jiaoxi looked over cautiously, and was immediately scared into a ball by King Jiaoxi. He grabbed his sleeve in a hurry and said in a mournful voice, "Didn't you say you wanted to kill him for me? Quick, quick!" I, I don't want to die, I don't want to die in his hands like my concubine mother. As long as you kill him, it's all yours, military power, palace, everything!"

Gong Jiu brushed his hand away, chuckled, took out a dagger from his sleeve, and coaxed: "Don't you hate him? Then why don't you do it yourself? Just like he killed your mother and concubine, put the knife Insert it into his body fiercely, let his blood flow out..." His eyes were gradually stained with a strange color, his tone was faintly excited, and my dagger hand was actually trembling slightly.

Ye Gucheng, who had been standing by the side, frowned suddenly, and said sharply, "Ah Jiu!"

Gong Jiu was startled, and stared blankly at him.Ye Gucheng stepped forward to hold his hand, stared at his eyes complicatedly, and said in a low voice: "Be sober."

Gong Jiu suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at Ye Gucheng apologetically. The prince of Jiaoxi seemed to be bewitched by Gong Jiu, and he reached out hesitantly with the courage he didn't know where, and slowly pulled out the dagger.His chest was heaving violently, he was gasping for breath, he was smirking in a trance, his delicate face was full of ferocity.

"I want revenge!" He looked at King Jiaoxi slowly, his expression became more and more excited, and finally rushed over with a wild laugh, King Jiaoxi laughed coldly.

Gong Jiu hit King Jiaoxi's knee hard, sealing his acupoints. King Jiaoxi suddenly found that his limbs could not move, and his eyes widened in horror. Blood spewed out from King Xi's chest. The son of King Jiaoxi was slapped all over his face. He stared at King Jiaoxi motionlessly. His gaze changed from anger to hatred and panic. Finally, he lost all his spirit and fell to the ground coldly. .

Gong Jiu's body was unstoppably agitated, even his voice was trembling, he asked Prince Jiaoxi: "Are you happy now?"

The prince of Jiaoxi remained motionless. After a long while, he slowly turned his head and smiled at Gong Jiu, his face was covered with blood, but his eyes were as empty as ashes.Are you happy?Gong Jiu stared at him relentlessly but couldn't find a trace of happiness.The prince of Jiaoxi is already a "dead man".

Gong Jiu rushed in front of him, kicked King Jiaoxi's body, and yelled at King Jiaoxi's son with red eyes like crazy: "Don't you hate him? Don't you want him to die? He killed your mother , want to kill you? You wag your tail at him like a poor wild dog every day, you don’t hate? You don’t complain?! Why are you unhappy? He’s dead! Why are you unhappy! He’s dead ………”

"Don't touch him!" The son of King Jiaoxi knelt on the ground and staggered over, blocking King Jiaoxi's body, sobbing softly.

"Ah Jiu!" Ye Gucheng restrained him, holding him tightly in his arms.

Gong Jiu was panting violently, like a bull that had run for dozens of miles and almost lost its strength.He fell limply on Ye Gucheng's body, his eyelashes trembling slightly, and murmured in bewilderment: "How could this be... how could it be possible?" He raised his hand and pressed it on his chest in a daze, his heart beating one after another, slowly convulsing And throbbing.

"I..." Gong Jiu looked at Ye Gucheng at a loss, his knuckles were pale, and he grabbed his sleeves tightly. Ye Gucheng gently patted his back, as gentle as coaxing a child .

Gong Jiu gradually regained his composure, smiled reluctantly at him and said, "You treat me as Yuan'er?"

Ye Gucheng smiled and said, "Yuan'er is much better than you."

The prince of Jiaoxi stood up slowly, took out a military talisman from his arms and handed it to him: "This is what we agreed, he is already yours. It's just that I have one more request, I hope you can agree to it. "

Gong Jiu didn't answer, but just stared at him coldly.

The son of King Jiaoxi pulled out a wry smile with difficulty, and his eyes fell on King Jiaoxi again: "Please, let the father rest in peace." As a rebel, once the King of Jiaoxi is defeated, he will definitely lose his clan status and will not enjoy sacrifices. Feng, he can't even enjoy the mausoleum that he deserves, because he is a sinner!

Gong Jiu's eyes flickered slightly, and he said slowly after a long time: "Yes, I allow King Jiaoxi to be buried according to the regulations. But this soldier talisman should be placed with you first, and I have something to tell you to do."

A flash of ecstasy flashed in the eyes of the prince of Jiaoxi, he licked his dry lips, but tasted the bloody taste of his mouth, his face turned pale again, he solemnly knelt down slowly, bowed his head submissively: "But there is an order , dare not say goodbye."

Gong Jiu's eyes were obscure, she held Ye Gucheng's hand tightly, and pulled the corners of her mouth coldly.

Beef soup was lying on the bed, and the little old man was sitting beside her bed, and said earnestly, "You are usually lazy to practice martial arts, but now you have suffered?"

Niu Tang said: "I didn't expect Ximen Chuuxue's swordsmanship to be quite good. You must know that people will always panic if they are not on guard. But, I will definitely not next time!"

The little old man smiled and said: "If there is a next time, you'd better avoid it from a distance. It's a pity that Ximen Chuuxue's sword... There are still a few people in this world who can be so persistent. It's very good."

A sweet smile appeared on Niu Tang's face and said: "When Brother Nine comes back, I must ask him to take a look. He must feel distressed. Brother Nine will never forget my kindness."

The little old man shook his head, "It's a pity that he will never give you his own."

Beef Soup's complexion changed, and he glared at the little old man viciously, but instead of refuting, he showed a frustrated expression.

The little old man smiled: "So, you'd better listen to him honestly and don't provoke those people, so that you can live longer."

Beef soup bit his lip, biting the corner of the quilt unwillingly, reached into his chest, took out the short and thin tube from inside, and handed it to the little old man.

The little old man patted her head, took her hand, his eyes were full of love: "Take a good rest, wait for Lao Jiu to show him how beautiful our girl has become again."

Beef Soup looked full of anticipation, and obediently closed his eyes.The little old man got up and walked to the window, where there was a table carved with rosewood and a birdcage on it, with snow-white pigeons fluttering their wings.The little old man hesitated for a long time, but still tied the pipe to the pigeon, sighed and gently stroked the pigeon and let it fly. The pigeon circled around the roof before flying away.
