Although Leng Yu was injured, he was also a war-hardened general. Although Meng Xin had some skills, he was no match for Leng Yu. After a while, he was defeated. Leng Yu's sword was far away from his. When their throats were only a finger apart, the two people stopped.
Meng Xin narrowed his eyes slightly and hummed, "The people from Beihai Kingdom are coming, and you will be surrounded soon."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Leng Yu's lips, and then he said coldly to Xiao Lingzi:
"Finish what you just said."
Xiao Lingzi took two steps forward in shock, clasped his fists again and said:
"Your Majesty, the people from Beihai Kingdom came, but they were repulsed by our ambush on the road. Seeing that the situation was not good, they had already fled with their tails between their legs. I am here to ask for your instructions, should we pursue them or not?"
Meng Xin suddenly realized that because he wanted to win this battle so much, when he heard the words Beihai Kingdom, he thought that the other party was coming to support him.
Unexpectedly, even the soldiers of the Chu State knew that the people from the Beihai State would not come to help, and he was the only one who was still dreaming here.
It turned out that he had become the most pitiable clown.
There was Meng Yue, and when he thought of the scene of her being carried away by Liu Dechang, he felt a tightness in his chest. He gritted his teeth and roared towards the sky with all his strength,
"ah……"
Seeing his abnormal behavior, the Queen of Chu suddenly shouted at the top of her lungs:
"Meng Xin, don't be stubborn anymore. Look at this originally peaceful Western Region. The corpses you killed are everywhere. Don't make any more mistakes. Surrender!"
Hearing this, Meng Xin's eyes, which were already full of anger and disappointment, seemed to be bursting with fire.
He gritted his teeth and gasped, shouting with all his strength:
"Seniors can be killed, but not humiliated. I have been told that I will be sorry for Meng Yue, the people of Chu State, and the soldiers of Chu State in this life. I am going to apologize to the great ancestors of the Meng family."
After saying this, he opened his arms, thrust his neck forward forcefully, and before Leng Yu could react, he plunged directly into the long sword in his hand.
"Father..."
As Letu's wailing sound echoed throughout the world, Meng Xin fell to the ground with eyes that refused to admit defeat.
He would rather die than surrender, which also verified what the Queen of Chu said: His face killed him.
Meng Xin died. He was killed in one fell swoop. Although he died under Leng Yu's sword, he was not killed by Leng Yu.
Seeing this scene, the Chu soldiers all knelt down in the snow stained red by Meng Xin's blood, looking desperately at Meng Xin who had expired...
This sudden scene made the Queen of Chu stand there in a daze. She looked at Meng Xin lying on the ground with disbelief, and moved towards him step by step.
She didn't believe that the strong and strong Meng Xin died like this?
When she came to him and looked at Meng Xin, who had eyes wide open and had stopped breathing, she confirmed that he was really dead. Her tears fell silently down her cheeks.
She raised her hand, closed his eyes, half-crouched beside his body, and closed her eyes bitterly.
After pondering for a long time, she suddenly stood up straight, letting her tears keep falling, she gritted her teeth and said bitterly:
"King Meng Xin of the Chu State has died. He had issued a posthumous edict during his lifetime. If he makes any mistakes, the young prince of the Chu State, Meng Letu, will succeed him as the eighteenth king of the Chu State. All matters of the Chu State, large and small, will be handled by him alone. It has been decided that no one may interfere in politics, and anyone who disobeys will be punished with the above crime.”
The scene became quiet for a while, and Leng Yu waved his hand, signaling Xiao Lingzi to untie the rope from Letu's body.
Letu jumped off the horse with a dark expression. He came to Mengxin, knelt down on his knees, kowtowed three times without saying a word, and then knelt in the snow for a long time. At this time, no one came forward to disturb him. , all looking at him quietly.
Then he stood up, looked at Leng Yu again, clasped his hands into fists, and said solemnly and coldly:
"The State of Chu has invaded the territory of the State of Daning for many years, causing the people of the State of Daning, which is close to the State of Chu, to have no peace. As the new king of the State of Chu, I sincerely apologize to the State of Daning. Early tomorrow morning, I will go to the capital of the State of Daning in person. Withdraw all the people from the Chu State. I ask Prince Yu to be accommodating and not to stop me. To show my sincerity, I, Meng Letu, swear here that for ten thousand years from now, the people of the Chu State will never invade any plant or tree in the Daning Kingdom. If there is any disobedience, , punished as the crime of deceiving the emperor."
After he finished speaking, Leng Yu's brows showed a sharp gaze, and then he nodded,
"Okay, since you are so sincere, I won't embarrass you. Without further ado, let's set out together tomorrow morning."
After saying this, he once again glanced at the stubborn Meng Xin who would rather die than surrender, tightened the horse's reins, turned around, and rode away.
The night was very quiet. All the Chu people who stayed behind held their breath and did not dare to make a sound.
The queen of Chu finally couldn't help clinging to Meng Xin's body and began to cry loudly, muttering incessantly,
"Meng Xin, you only care about your face in this life. I have told you before that face is not worth your life. It's fine now. You would rather die than surrender for your face, but you just left me like this. He Tu'er, you are so cruel!"
Liu Jin, who was standing aside, motioned to the girl beside him to help the queen up, then came to Letu's side and whispered:
"King, please have my condolences. What should I do about the king's funeral?"
Letu looked up at the dark night sky and swallowed back the tears that had flowed out.
He has become the king of a country. He has no right to cry, and he cannot shed tears.
He calmed down his emotions, trembled at the corner of his mouth, and murmured:
"Tomorrow morning, you will take my father and mother back to the Chu Kingdom. After I return from the Daning Kingdom, you can bury him in a grand ceremony."
I don’t know when snowflakes started to float in the sky again, and they fell one by one, making people feel a chill.
Letu watched helplessly as Meng Xin's body was carried away by his servants, and his heart ached like a knife.
All of this was planned by him. He originally thought that using his life to threaten his father to compromise would prevent more people from being harmed.
But he didn't expect that his father would rather die than bow to others. For his father's sudden suicide, he felt somewhat indebted. But if he didn't do this, all the soldiers of the Chu Kingdom would not survive. Which is right and which is wrong? He couldn't tell the difference anymore.
…
At this time, Luo Lan, who was busy in his room, had discovered that the poison Meng Yue had swallowed was arsenic, one of the most incurable poisons commonly used by ancient people.
Since she has been poisoned for too long and the poison has stayed in her body for too long, it will be very difficult to treat her. It can be said that the hope of saving her is very slim.
Thinking of her father's expectant eyes and her mother's pale face just now, Luo Lan bit her lower lip bitterly and had a thought in her mind.
Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor. If she saves her, there may be a glimmer of hope. If she doesn't save her, she will have to face death.
Thinking of this, Luo Lan quickly took out the electric gastric lavage machine, connected the gastric tube to the gastric lavage infusion machine, sucked out all the contents in the stomach, and continuously infused the gastric lavage liquid, and then sucked it out, repeating this process until several times. After several times, the liquid sucked out of the stomach has turned into clear water, and then it is considered to be enough.
Next, she had to do the work of catharsis. Since Meng Yue was already in a coma and could not complete her bowel movements on her own, she directly used an enema of warm soapy water on her and waited for her to eliminate the remaining poisons in her intestines... …
