Wanyan Yong hesitated, clasped his hands behind his back, and replied righteously: "My uncle now knows that the lonely king is coming! He has even prepared tea!"
Li Shi turned his face forward, knelt down and bowed again: "Your Majesty, forgive me!"
"Excuse me, how can you ask the lonely king to forgive me? On such a freezing night, you want my wife and child to freeze to death outside. Are you acting like a father? Are you acting like a grandfather? Really?"
He drew the long sword from his waist and placed it on Li Shi's shoulder without any delay. The cold light shone out, making Li Shi's rough cheek turn green.
"Li Shi, when did you become like this? When did you become so cruel? Do you think King Gu will let go of Qing Ya? You underestimated my feelings for her!"
Li Shi raised his head and saw that Wan Yanyong's stubble on his cheeks had not been trimmed for a long time, and his bloodshot eyes were weakly opened.
Li Shi suddenly stood up from under his sword and said, "Your Majesty, did you do this by yourself?"
"what are you saying?"
"I, a noble lady of the Li family, was sent away like this after marrying into the prince's palace. I asked others how to think of me, Mrs. Li. Your Majesty, you are ruthless and ruthless. A letter of divorce can solve everything, but have you considered it? How humiliating is this for a woman?"
"Let me ask you, in today's world, does a woman who has been divorced still have the right to remarry? If she can remarry, how much gossip will she have to bear?"
"I have two daughters. The younger one has already suffered a lot. I don't want Qingya to be abandoned like this again, so I have no choice but to take this step! I understand that the king will keep her only if she is pregnant with the king's flesh and blood. .”
The Shenjian in Wanyanyong's hand slowly loosened - "The lonely king has never thought of letting Qingya remarry. As long as she is willing to lower her head to find me, I will keep her by my side for the rest of my life..."
"But Your Majesty, you understand Qingya, is she a person who can bow her head? Can she?"
"But you clearly know..."Hitting" is a bad custom, and you still do it. Do you know how Qingya was tortured when I saw her? "
"There are scars from sticks all over the body, the blood from the ankles is so bloody that the embroidered shoes will be soaked red, and the nails are lifted one by one. It's so cold outside, Li Shi, are you crazy?"
Li Shi stopped talking.
"You don't need to take care of the inner affairs of the lonely king, let alone interfere. Even if Qingya and I have anything to do with each other, I will definitely ensure that she lives a safe and prosperous life, but it's your turn to have a hand in it?"
Wan Yanyong was really angry this time. He froze the hand holding the sword and looked into Li Shi's wrinkled eyes.
Li Shi sneered: "It's not my turn to care? Your Majesty, please don't forget who likes Qingya so much! And who sent her to your royal bed? If it weren't for her uncle, she would probably become a You must be a member of the Holy Emperor’s harem!”
"Qingya has a deep friendship with His Majesty, have you forgotten?"
"Li Shi? You are so presumptuous, so presumptuous..." Wan Yanyong couldn't say any more.
"Lu'er, I'm thinking about you in everything, right? You said you wanted a cousin, and my uncle gave you your daughter without saying a word. You have great ambitions, and your uncle has made friends with all the big names in Bohai to build up strength for you. May I ask? Who in the world would follow you so recklessly?"
"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this. My uncle is a confused person, so I ask your Majesty to punish him!"
At that moment, Li Shi's decrepit figure fell down, his slender robes reached to the ground, and his crouched head made a sound when it hit the cold ground. Wan Yanyong could clearly see his temples were like frost, The gray hair was tangled and messy.
Looking back on the past, my father died young and my mother became a monk. In the years when he had no parents to rely on, it was the man in front of him who paved the way for him without any complaints, educated him, and made him stand out among the many grandsons of Taizu and the emperor, and stand tall as a human being. .
His hanging arm loosened again and again, and the cold sword fell to the ground, making a harsh sound.
What followed was his receding figure and those heavy and disappointing words.
"Li Shi, I think you are the king's uncle. You have supported the lonely king for many years. I can't bear to be in trouble anymore. But the lonely king will definitely read your book in front of the empress and the saint. You must remember that I am your nephew in private, and I am your nephew in public. Wang is a relative of Da Jin
king. "
"You are so cruel that even your own daughter has the heart to hurt you. Do you want to chill your children? Do you want the lonely king to be disappointed in you? You are willful and violent because you want to despise the imperial power, the officials and the Empress?"
"Take those people today to the left-behind residence, and the lonely king will deal with it..."
"Your Majesty, if you want to punish me, punish me. Please don't vent your anger on others! Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Li Shi walked forward and knelt on the ice-covered stone slab at the foot of the steps, watching Wan Yanyong's figure disappear into the boundless blackness.
The snow fell very deep that night, and King Yong was so angry that he could not suppress it, so he ordered Zhang Jiyan to escort those strong men to the rear courtyard of the left-behind mansion overnight, saying that he was going to execute them with his own hands.
Zhang Jiyan followed Wanyanyong's words and brought all the men around Li Shi over to interrogate the whereabouts of those men one by one. However, these men were dead men, and they could not even pry their mouths open, and they would not lead to death. Say a word.
The high-ranking female official who had previously served the eldest lady Ugu Lunshi saw several strange men summoned into Li Shi's study at night the night before. However, she was attentive and did not get close to listen to them. They were discussing something, but they still waited for them to come out. After seeing that nothing happened, they didn't take it to heart.
"...I heard about this and came to see the king. In this way, it's my old guy's fault. If I had been too thoughtful to visit the lord's house that night, I would have made these people suffer a thousand blows. I’ve met the Lord of Hell! Poor my second girl, she has suffered such humiliation for nothing, how can I live up to the eldest lady’s entrustment!”
The high-ranking female official sat beside Qingya's couch with tears in her eyes, stroking the scars on her face and holding the silk scarf while crying.
Qingya was stunned for a long time, and the figure of her mother gradually appeared in her eyes. It took a long time to go, with mist lingering in her eyes, and her weak voice echoed in her ears: "Auntie Gao, don't be overly sad, isn't this good for me? Qingya's body is strong and strong. You can't be defeated in a short while. Besides, my aunt taught the fourth and fifth brothers very well, which is praised by everyone in the mother's house. If her sister (mother Ugu Lunshi) was here, she would definitely I was happy, so I thought that I would have to ask Aunt Gao to teach me well in the future."
The senior female official looked at the back of her hand carefully and then rubbed it on her face: "The girl is still so strong, but you don't know how much the girl longs to be protected and pampered. It's just that my girl has been holding back since she was a child. Qu’s hard life, not many people felt pain, and even when he got to his in-laws’ house, he still couldn’t get over it!”
Qingya suddenly smiled and raised her lips slightly: "No one will protect and favor me for the rest of my life, and there is no one who will protect me for the rest of my life. The people around me may leave halfway or come halfway, there is no fixed number. The only one you have is an iron-clad barrier!"
"As long as people live, they will suffer. The hard days will never end. In this case, why not accept it calmly and make these hard days less painful."
"Young lady is really a rare lady of virtue and talent, she lives a clear and clear life!"
The high-ranking female official talked nonchalantly, and Qingya was also happy to talk to her. As she talked, Qingya became drowsy and fell into a deep sleep. The high-ranking female official was led by the people to the rear courtyard of the left-behind mansion. She followed King Yong's order and identified the faces of the suspicious people who were being taken there.
"Mother Gao has met those people! She must remember them too!" Wan Yanyong said, and the female officer Gao responded and went to investigate more closely. ..
I saw one of them with big shoulders and a thick waist, with shiny hair and a thick beard surrounding his face. It was this person who appeared in front of him.
——"Your Majesty, it's this person, I remember his face clearly!" The high female officer reacted immediately.
Wan Yanyong sat in the warm pavilion and waved, and several people around him immediately arrested the man and forced him to confess his accomplices. A total of seven people participated.
He was so angry that he sent people to find the two people who escaped first overnight. Finally, the two people were captured in a deserted village on the outskirts of the country.
It was almost dawn when all the participants were found.
Before dawn, Wan Yanyong had already thought about how to deal with these people. He wanted to kill these thieves with his own hands as punishment.
