Murong Xue was suspended on the chariot two feet high. The breeze blew by, and her body swayed in the wind like a pendulum.
Her face was pale and her red lips were chapped, but there was still a gleam of revengeful excitement in her eyes.
Murong Xiao looked at Murong Xue who was hanging down below, his teeth chattering. He never thought that he would face such a thing one day.
"How about old Murong? Do you feel distressed to see your daughter like this? Why don't you open the city gate quickly? This junior is willing to hand over the apple of your eye to you unscathed. What do you think? ?" Li Yaozu looked at the wall in Surabaya and shouted loudly.
Murong Xiao was furious when he heard this, "Shameless boy, you and your father are both so shameless!"
"Hahaha, the Thirty-Six Stratagems are used in every possible way on the battlefield, how can you be so shameless?" Li Yaozu remained unmoved and continued to laugh wildly.
"you..."
"Hahaha..."
Before Murong Xiao could say anything, Murong Xue, who was hanging up, also started laughing.
Her wrists were bruised by the rope, and blood flowed down her white arms, staining her robe red.
"Why are you laughing?" Li Yaozu turned around and looked at Murong Xue, asking contemptuously.
Murong Xue ignored Li Yaozu, but looked at Murong Xiao sadly, "Dad, you don't have to worry about me. My daughter understands your thoughts. My daughter doesn't blame you. Suffering this little bit is nothing. My daughter will let them do it in the future." The Li family regrets it."
"It's a joke. If our Li family ever regrets it, I, Li Yaozu, will chop off my head and play it as a ball for you." Li Yaozu snorted disdainfully.
Murong Xue's beautiful eyes finally looked at Li Yaozu and the man who violated her, "You will know in the future."
It's not that Murong Xue didn't think about death after being captured, but she was a woman after all, and she was only sixteen years old. Even a member of a famous family would feel scared in the face of death, and now she is pregnant with the son of the Li family. , she didn’t even want to die. Not only was she not angry when Li Yaozu treated her like this, but she felt a sense of relief and revenge.
She wanted to see what the Li family would look like when the child in her belly was gone.
"Xue'er..." Murong Xiao's old face finally showed a hint of sadness.
"Hurry up and release them!" At this moment, a loud shout rang out in the formation, followed by the sound of rapid horse hooves, running towards the front of the formation.
Li Yaozu was stunned, turned his horse's head, and looked behind him.
When the man came closer, Li Yaozu looked him up and down.
But he saw a swarthy man in his forties, an uncle who had been fighting with his father for many years. When they had a drink with him a month ago, he said he wanted to marry his twelve-year-old daughter to him.
At this time, this man was not wearing a battle armor. It seemed that he had something urgent to do when he went out, and he looked very anxious.
"Uncle hits like this
Is there something urgent about pretending to be here? Li Yaozu asked puzzledly.
"We'll talk about this later. Quickly put that woman down and take her back to the camp to recuperate. Don't do this again!" The swarthy man glanced at Murong Xue hanging in the air and swallowed.
"Why is this?" Li Yaozu suddenly became suspicious and asked in confusion.
"Don't ask any more questions. When you return to the camp, you can ask your father yourself." The swarthy man said, and then quickly urged the soldiers on the side to put down Murong Xue.
Murong Xue was hung for a long time. When she was put down, her hands and feet could no longer move, and she fell to the ground.
"Hey, why are you in such a mess? Come here quickly and carry her back on a stretcher." Seeing how weak Murong Xue was, the swarthy man said anxiously with the corner of his mouth twitching.
"It's just a defeated general, why should he be so nice to her!" At this time, Li Yaozu took a step forward, stared at Murong Xue lying on the ground, and said without any emotion.
"You know nothing. Just wait and be punished when you return to the camp." Hearing what Li Yaozu said, the dark-skinned man immediately cursed Li Yaozu.
Murong Xue's face was covered with dust and she looked up at Li Yaozu. Although she looked extremely miserable, Murong Xue's face was smiling, "Li Yaozu, the mistake you made has finally paid off, haha. Ha ha."
Li Yaozu's eyes followed Murong Xue's figure on the stretcher, and he didn't look back until the dark man and Murong Xue disappeared.
He vaguely felt that something was wrong today. Murong Xue seemed to have someone to rely on and was not afraid of torturing her at all. However, this time was in front of the two armies. Li Yaozu quickly gathered his thoughts and turned his attention to Surabaya City again.
As night fell, Li Yaozu withdrew his troops and returned to the camp early today.
"What! How is that possible!"
Li Yaozu's exclamation came from Li Zhongguo's big tent.
Li Zhongguo looked down at Li Yaozu with an ugly face, sighing in his heart that his son was good at everything, but he was missing a string in the matter of men and women.
"Is there anything impossible? I knew the news a few days ago. Murong Xue is indeed pregnant with your child." Li Zhongguo said lightly. Seeing that Li Yaozu still looked stunned below, he asked, "Is this How do you plan to handle the matter?"
When Li Yaozu returned to the camp, he was called here by Li Zhongguo. When he was told the news, he was suddenly struck by thunder. For a moment, he was extremely upset and secretly cursed himself for being impulsive and doing that kind of thing with the enemy's daughter. Now, He finally understood what Murong Xue meant by the consequences during the day.
He had never experienced anything like this before. Hearing Li Zhongguo ask him how to deal with it, his body trembled. He thought for a moment and then said, "Father will decide everything!"
A glint flashed in Li Zhongguo's eyes, and the corner of his mouth raised slightly, as if his trick had succeeded.
"She is pregnant with the blood of my Li family, even if you don't like it
Girl, the child in her belly must also be kept. It just so happens that today the king issued an imperial edict, asking us to withdraw our troops and return to the army. If this is the case, then take this girl back and not return that old thing Murong Xiao. What do you think? "
When Li Yaozu heard this, he frowned. He knew the art of war well and knew that it had been more than two years since their army had been out and deep into the hinterland of Liang State. The army was exhausted, and the transportation of grain and grass was more difficult. Zhao State's national strength could not support it. It had been too long, and it was only a matter of time before the troops were withdrawn, so he was not surprised by the news.
But his father wanted to take Murong Xue home, which surprised him. If this was the case, his father would definitely let him marry Murong Xue when he got home. After all, although Murong Xue was nothing, she had My child is indeed extremely important and cannot be nameless or statusless, but can Murong Xue be willing to do so? His relationship with Murong Xue was not very harmonious.
Seeing Li Yaozu's hesitation, Li Zhongguo raised his eyebrows and patted the table, "Don't think about it. Our Li family is a famous family. If there is any trouble, it will be known to the world. If Murong Xue is left alone, this scandal of yours will be If this spreads out, our Li family will not be drowned in the saliva of the world."
After a pause, Li Zhongguo continued, "Besides, Murong Xue's family affairs are considered to be of the same family as ours, so you are not at a disadvantage."
"It seems that my father has already thought about it, and I should obey it." After hearing Li Zhongguo's words, Li Yaozu showed a wry smile on his face and nodded in agreement.
"Well, you go down. You've put that girl through a lot of trouble today. Go take a look at her."
"Yes! Then I'll go." Li Yaozu cupped his hands towards Li Zhongguo, then turned and walked out of the account.
The bright moonlight shone on the earth, and from time to time patrol soldiers with swords in their hands passed through the camp and greeted Li Yaozu. Li Yaozu nodded to them absently and said nothing.
As if there was a mess in his mind and something on his mind, he unknowingly walked outside the tent where Murong Xue was.
He stopped at the door. He just raised his hand, but he hesitated and put it down.
When he turned around and was about to leave, Li Yaozu paused again. He gritted his teeth, turned around, opened the curtain and walked in.
Murong Xue's green hair was scattered in the camp, her face was as pale as paper, and her wrists were bandaged with gauze, but the blood marks could still be seen.
Seeing Murong Xue's appearance, Li Yaozu no longer had the cruelty towards Murong Xue before, but instead felt an inexplicable feeling.
Murong Xue's beautiful eyes were filled with coldness, as if she was looking at the enemy who killed her father.
"you..."
"You knew already?"
Li Yaozu hesitated and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Murong Xue.
Li Yaozu was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a wry smile.
"You almost killed your child today. How do you feel now? Have you ever regretted it?" Murong Xue looked directly at Li Yaozu and said with a sneer.
Li Yaozu's eyes flashed coldly, he didn't expect this
The woman would actually use this method to retaliate against herself. She also sneered, "Humph, it's true that it's my child. Could it be that it's not yours? I, Li Yaozu, have never seen such a cruel woman like you."
"I am a defeated general and a prisoner! You, Li Yaozu, can pinch you if you want, toy with you if you want, and kill you if you are tired of it. Whether I am pregnant with your Li family's seed is important to you, and it has nothing to do with me. !”
"You..." Li Yaozu pointed at Murong Xue's chest rising and falling violently, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.
"Hahaha, I told you that you would regret killing me. If your father hadn't found out earlier, you, Li Yaozu, would have been charged with killing your son today. I wonder how your Li family will face the world in the future." When Murong Xue saw Li Yaozu like this, the sullenness she had suppressed for a long time was finally released at this moment, and she looked up to the sky and laughed.
Li Yaozu never thought that he was just a prisoner and that he could easily take his life if he wanted to. But now he was being held captive by her. The old saying that a mother is more valuable than a child is true at all.
"Hmph, I will take you back to Li's house tomorrow. From now on, you will never see your father again."
"Go, just go. I, Murong Xue, am still afraid that if your Li family fails, the worst case scenario is death. I, Murong Xue, will risk my life."
Seeing Murong Xue's appearance, Li Yaozu didn't want to talk to this woman anymore, so he walked out of the account with a dark face.
After Li Yaozu left, Murong Xue's arrogant look finally disappeared. A layer of mist appeared in her beautiful eyes, and her expression became sad. She choked and whispered, "Dad, the child is unfilial..."
