King Xirong's expression changed.
These days, I heard from the Prime Minister that Mrs. Sui and those Dayu people have been working in the experimental field, and the progress is very good.
If nothing unexpected happens, the rice seeds will germinate in one month, and the rice will be heading and growing in another two months. If the yield per mu can be proven to be extremely high, planting can be promoted on a large scale next spring, which is very important to them in Xirong Kingdom. , is definitely an unprecedented initiative... If Mrs. Sui dies now, the experiment will be terminated, and there will never be such a good opportunity again.
The King of Xirong raised his hand, and a pebble hit the knife in Cheng Wanwan's hand. With a crisp sound, the knife fell to the ground.
Princess Taiping seemed to have just come to her senses. She quickly went over to hug Cheng Wanwan's shoulders and said in a gentle voice: "Mrs. Sui, calm down. Don't lose control. You must keep your strength to send the child off for the last journey. Don't let the child become a Isn't the lonely ghost..."
"Mrs. Sui, please hear me clearly. If you die, I will crush your son's bones into ashes." King Xirong's voice was extremely cold. "If you are obedient, I will give your son a high-ranking official title and let him He was buried with great splendor as a first-class official of Xirong Kingdom. If you want your son's soul to return to his hometown, you can even send someone to send the body back to Dayu Kingdom."
Cheng Wanwan said in a sad voice: "Everyone is dead, what's the point of being appointed an official? I also want to be obedient, but my son is dead, what's the point of my life..."
She reached out to pull out the hairpin on top of her head.
Princess Taiping stopped her quickly. She grabbed Cheng Wanwan's hands and looked at Madam Li with hidden anger: "Why don't you kneel down and apologize to Madam Sui for ruining Xirong's plan? Can you afford it? "
Mrs. Li was in disbelief: "Asking me to kneel down to a peasant woman, no, it's impossible..."
Before she finished speaking, she felt a cool gaze falling on her head. When she turned around, she saw King Xirong's eyes nailing her eyebrows like ice prisms.
She trembled all over and immediately knelt down: "Mrs. Sui, I was wrong. I apologize to you. I hope you can forgive me..."
"Is it enough to kneel down and apologize?" Cheng Wanwan looked at King Xirong, "Did I kill Mrs. Li's whole family, and as long as I kneel down and submit, Mrs. Li will let me go?"
Mrs. Li gritted her teeth: "You, don't push yourself too far!"
"Even if I can't pay with my life, I will make Mrs. Li pay the price!" Cheng Wanwan said one word at a time, "Otherwise, I would rather die than work for Xirong Kingdom again!"
After finishing speaking, she walked up and staggered towards the side room, sat next to the two corpses, and began to cry silently.
King Xirong looked at Cheng Wanwan's figure, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Since he became the king of Xirong, no one has dared to threaten him, and this woman is the first one.
If it weren't for the fact that this woman was still valuable, he would have chopped her into pieces right now.
Seeing the killing intent in King Xirong's eyes, Princess Taiping was not surprised at all. This man was so ruthless to his own children, let alone a woman who was not related by blood?
Fortunately, Mrs. Sui has great talents and abilities at her side, so her life will not be in danger for the time being.
She took a step forward and said, "The king spent so much effort to capture Mrs. Sui and bring her to Xirong. If Mrs. Sui dies, the rice seed experiment will be suspended. Wouldn't all the previous efforts be wasted?"
"Queen, what do you mean by this!" Mrs. Li exclaimed, "Did you let the king deal with me for a peasant woman?"
"You broke into Madam Sui's residence and killed Madam Sui's son. You should be dealt with properly." King Xirong looked grim. "Come here, bring all the guards around Madam Li and let Madam Sui execute her personally! In addition, Madam Li You are so heartless and unvirtuous that you almost destroyed my century-old foundation in Xirong. I am deprived of my honor as a wife and sent to the cold palace!"
"What?!"
Mrs. Li looked up in disbelief.
Forget about executing the people around her, just think of it as giving an explanation to Mrs. Sui.
But, why was she exempted from the honorific title of Madam, and why was she sent to the cold palace...
She is the legitimate daughter of a noble family, the biological mother of three princes and two princesses, and has a solid position in the harem. Why would the king abandon her for a peasant woman...
"King, I'm wrong..."
Mrs. Li crawled over and hugged King Xirong's calf.
"What are you still doing?" Princess Taiping said coldly, "Why don't you quickly take Mrs. Li... take Li Ji down!"
The guards came forward and dragged Mrs. Li out of the courtyard one by one.
King Xirong looked at Princess Taiping indifferently: "If Mrs. Sui is dead, you don't have to live."
After he finished speaking, he rolled his sleeves and left.
Princess Taiping slowly let go of her hand that was tightly squeezing her palm. Only then did she notice that her palm was pinched and bleeding, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
For so many years in Xirong, she had suffered countless losses at the hands of Madam Li. This was the first time she had seen Madam Li lose.
A feeling called pleasure spread in her heart.
She took a deep breath and said, "You guys go prepare the coffin and shrouds, you go arrange the funeral, you..."
She ordered things in an orderly manner, and then walked towards the wing where Cheng Wanwan was.
She looked at the two unrecognizable corpses and had no idea where Mrs. Sui got them. If she hadn't known the plan in advance, she would have thought that Mrs. Sui's son was really beaten to death...
She sat down on the chair next to her and whispered: "They have followed Cailu's motorcade out of the palace, Mrs. Sui can rest assured."
After every day and night, she would arrange a motorcade to go out of the palace to collect morning dew in the woods in the suburbs, because Chinese medicine said that rubbing the body with morning dew would keep her sleeping daughter's skin elastic and fair... As her motorcade left the palace, It didn't arouse any suspicion. In addition, Mrs. Rei Miyauchi had an accident, and no one cared about a team collecting morning dew.
Cheng Wanwan said softly: "Thank you, Princess."
Her voice was very hoarse. She had almost exhausted all her strength just now when she acted, and her whole body was extremely exhausted.
She glanced at the two corpses, then quickly looked away.
This is a corpse she bought in the system mall for medical research. This is a real corpse, a person who died not long ago...
She said: "I hope Xirong Kingdom can ask a mage to save the two of them for at least ninety-nine and eighty-one days before they are buried."
First, no matter who the two corpses were when they were alive, she had used them, so she had to save them and let their souls rest in peace.
Secondly, if Sanniu and Mingzhu go to ask for reinforcements, they may encounter some accidents, and there will be a buffer period in eighty-one days.
That night, Cheng Wanwan didn't sleep.
The next morning, the king's order from the Xirong Kingdom came down, posthumously conferring Zhao Jingyu the rank of first-grade Dongzan doctor, and he was buried with great splendor...
When Xirong Kingdom was preparing for the funeral, Zhao Sanniu and Ruan Mingzhu had already arrived a hundred miles away from the imperial city.
The Xirong Kingdom is located in the northwest of the Dayu Kingdom, and the battlefield with the Dayu Kingdom is in the Western Xinjiang. However, the capital of Xirong is in the north, closer to the Northern Xinjiang. In order to find reinforcements as soon as possible, the two of them went straight north, strategizing all the way. The horse traveled quickly, and in less than a day, they arrived at the northern Xinjiang border between Xirong Kingdom and Dayu Kingdom.
There are small frictions here all year round. The Xirong Kingdom has arranged for garrison troops to guard here, and there are people along the entire line.
