The Grandmaster Strategist

Chapter 37 Atonement with Blood

Just as Princess Changle was about to die, a figure miraculously stood in front of Princess Changle. In an instant, a sharp sword penetrated her chest and blood splattered everywhere. The man screamed heartbreakingly: "Li Hanyou!"

When Li Hanyou pierced the man's chest with the sharp sword, he was originally very happy, but after seeing the man's face clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned. When he heard the man's cries full of resentment, Li Hanyou shook his head in panic, and the hilt of the sword in his hand seemed like Like a hot iron, she let go and was about to retreat, but under the gaze of those blood-red eyes, she actually felt that her legs were weak and weak. At this moment, the man had already pulled out his sword and swung it to kill Come. If in the past, this man's martial arts and swordsmanship were not as good as Li Hanyou's, Li Hanyou could easily avoid him. But now Li Hanyou was in a panic. No matter what, she could never kill this person with her own hands, so just when Li Hanyou was in a daze, the sharp sword light crossed Li Hanyou's cheek, leaving a deep mark. The hideous wounds on the bones are visible. Only then did Li Hanyou wake up and quickly stepped back to avoid having her head cut open. However, the severe pain on her face and the worry of her appearance being ruined made her scream, cover her face and sit down on the ground.

This change shocked everyone, including the master of Fengyi Sect. Suddenly, someone shouted: "Qing'er." It was General Qin Yi of Fuyuan. He felt a bang in his head and was in chaos. All he could see was the sword in his chest. Beloved son. He strode forward to help Qin Qing, but someone moved faster. Princess Changle screamed sadly: "Brother Qing, you can't die!" Qin Qing was already supported, but she was weak and soft, although she barely helped her Qin Qing was saved, but he was almost brought down. Fortunately, Qin Yi had already come over and hugged Qin Qing at this time. The two of them supported Qin Qing and let him slowly lie down on the imperial steps.

It turned out that the person who blocked Li Hanyou's sword was Qin Qing. Qin Qing was different from others. From the beginning to the end, his eyes stayed on Li Hanyou. He hated her for a while, but then remembered his love in the past. Therefore, he was the only one who noticed Li Hanyou's unusual behavior. He had long had the will to die, and he knew that Li Hanyou's swordsmanship was superior to his own. If he used weapons to block her, he might not be able to succeed, so he used his body to block Princess Changle. With his will to die, he actually surpassed him. The extreme speed of the human body successfully blocked the sword of death with flesh and blood.

The sharp sword entered his chest, and the hatred and anger that Qin Qing had accumulated in his heart finally burst out completely. Therefore, he did not care about the gap in martial arts between the two, and just slashed with one sword. He had no extravagant hope of succeeding with this sword, but he succeeded in destroying it. Li Hanyou's appearance disappeared.

Li Hanyou came from a poor family and had never liked those incense spices. Although he never showed it in order to maintain the appearance of the royal princess, he always tried to stay as far away from the incense burner as possible. Although this kind of Xiaoyao incense has a quiet fragrance, for some reason Li Hanyou just didn't like the smell, but if the incense was not allowed, Li Hanyou was worried about losing face if others knew about it, so she deliberately went outside to patrol or do other things. So although she was also poisoned, the toxicity was Lightest. After secretly taking some not very symptomatic antidote to the poison of the incense, he recovered his skills quickly. However, at this time, the master of Fengyi Sect had arrived and was negotiating with Li Zhi. She was worried that Fengyi Sect Master would abandon them, so she didn't get up in order to have the ability to resist.

But the more she listened, the more angry Li Hanyou became. Princess Changle passed the secret to the front and poisoned the back, causing all the glory and wealth she cherished to be wasted. If Princess Changle was not killed, her hatred would be hard to get rid of. But after she warned the Master of Fengyi Sect, he turned a deaf ear to it. She was a proud and arrogant person, but for a moment, she was so angry that she took advantage of Princess Changle to pass by and assassinated her. She was determined to win this sword, but Qin Qing blocked the sword.

No matter how hard-hearted she is, Qin Qing is her husband. Even though she has no true feelings for Qin Qing in her heart, her reputation is at stake. She absolutely does not want to bear the crime of killing her husband with her own hands. In fact, she originally wanted to Wait until the big thing is accomplished,

He used his power to force Qin Qing to accept him again. After all, Qin Qing was also a good candidate for his consort. Even if Qin Qing doesn't know how to praise, if she wanted to kill Qin Qing, she wouldn't do it herself, someone would naturally do it.

Due to the guilt and shock of killing her husband and the confusion of her mind, Li Hanyou actually forgot to dodge, and was cut by Qin Qing.

This incident made the atmosphere even more tense. Everyone tightened their weapons and a melee was about to break out.

Fengyi Sect Master felt that his energy and blood had calmed down at this time, and said coldly: "Li Zhi, do you want me to go on a killing spree?"

Li Zhi shook his body and said, word for word, through gritted teeth: "No one is allowed to act rashly." Under Li Zhi's order, the bloody fight that was about to break out was forcibly suppressed. But the atmosphere in the hall was already so breathless that it was hard to breathe.

I stared at Qin Qing blankly, and opened my right hand, which was already covered in blood. When Princess Changle was assassinated just now, I could only watch helplessly, completely forgetting everything. When I woke up, I realized that the nails on my right hand had covered the palm of my hand. punctured. I struggled to stand up and said hurriedly: "Xiao Shunzi, help me over."

Xiao Shunzi came over with a pale face and helped me to Qin Qing's side. By this time, Qin Qing had passed out. I knelt on the ground and put my hand on Qin Qing's wrist. After a while, I raised my head and saw tears. Princess Changle's eyes were full of joy, and Qin Yi's gaze was full of hope. She shook her head helplessly and said: "General Qin was stabbed in the heart and lungs by this sword, and he has no way to recover. If the general allows, I can use a golden needle." The technique of piercing the acupuncture points allowed General Qin to stay awake for a period of time."

Qin Yi felt as if life was leaving him. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Please give me the acupuncture."

I sighed, took the Xuan Tie Ying hairpin handed over by Xiao Shunzi, and administered a few injections. After a while, Qin Qing coughed a few times and opened his eyes. Qin Yi touched Qin Qing's face with his trembling hands, and said with tears: "Qing'er, you are a bad father. I was busy fighting in the past and did not teach you well, so that you were deceived and teased. Now - again ——" He could no longer speak.

There was no resentment in Qin Qing's eyes, but clarity. He said calmly: "Father, it's all children who are greedy for beauty, which has brought the emperor and his father almost into despair. Now that the child knows the wrongdoing of yesterday, he will die to atone for his sins today. Please father, don't feel sorry for the child." He spoke very clearly, and his face was flushed. Everyone knew that he had returned to his former glory at this moment. Qin Yi was even more sad and unbearable, but didn't know what to say.

Qin Qing's eyes fell on Princess Changle and said with a smile: "Your Highness, Qin Qing and Your Highness were childhood sweethearts, but Qin Qing was stupid and could not understand the princess's painstaking efforts to sacrifice for the country and the people. Instead, she spoke harshly. No wonder the princess treats Qin Qin Qing is disappointed.”

Princess Changle said softly: "Brother Qing, there is no need to talk about the past. You are still my former brother Qing. Although Changle has complained about you, you did not cherish the old grudge and saved my life. Changle doesn't know how to thank you." Yes, Brother Qing, if there is anything unfinished, just tell Changle."

Qin Qing's eyes were a little dim, and he said: "Your Highness, Qin Qing is incompetent and derelict in his duties, which has brought disaster to the family. I beg the princess to remember that my father has always been loyal, and I beg the emperor and His Highness Prince Yong not to blame the Qin family for Qin Qing."

Princess Changle covered her face and said: "Brother Qing, don't worry, I will definitely plead with my father and brother."

At this time, Li Yuan replied: "Qin Qing, you saved my beloved daughter, and if it weren't for your merits as King Qin of the Qin family, you wouldn't have been able to put down the rebellion so quickly. I only reward the Qin family, so how can I blame you? Don't worry. .”

Qin Qing's eyes fell on King Yong Li Zhi again, and Li Zhi said seriously: "General Qin, I swear here that I will never incriminate the Qin family for no reason. General Qin Yong saved my life. The old general is fiercely loyal." , you saved the imperial sister again, I am extremely grateful and will never retaliate for kindness."

Only then did Qin Qing feel relieved. She stretched out her hand to hold Jiang Zhe's hand and said softly: "Brother Jiang, I, Qin Qing, looked down on you in the past, but today I am convinced of you. Her Royal Highness the Princess is in a pitiful situation. You can't let her down." , don’t hesitate because of your status and etiquette.” Afterwards, it was very humble, and probably not many people could hear it except me. "

I felt sour in my heart. Although I had always known Li Hanyou's true face, I never thought of reminding Qin Qing. I watched Qin Qing sink deeper and deeper step by step. I said apologetically: "General Qin, don't worry, I love the princess." I am sincere and will never let her down, and as long as Jiang Zhe is alive, he will not let the Qin family suffer disaster."

After hearing my low-pitched promise, Qin Qing showed a happy smile on her face. She glanced at her father again and said, "Father, farewell, my child." As soon as the words fell, Qin Qing had already closed her eyes and her breath gradually weakened. , in a blink of an eye, he was already dead.

Qin Yi screamed sadly: "Qing'er!" The sorrowful cry mixed with Li Hanyou's miserable cry spread far and wide.

With anger blazing in his eyes, Li Zhi said coldly: "Master, Li Hanyou killed someone at this time. It would be unreasonable to let her go. Master, please hand over Li Hanyou to me."

Fengyi Sect Master was silent for a while and said: "She killed Qin Qing. Since Princess Changle is fine, you can't leave her in trouble. However, how to pursue her in the future is your business."

Li Zhi was a little hesitant. If he let Li Hanyou go like this, he would be very sorry to the Qin family. Although Qin Qing made the mistake first this time, it was the Qin family who saved him. At this time, Qin Yi, who was holding his son's body, suddenly said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, don't worry about me, your Majesty's safety is important. Let Li Hanyou go first. Revenge will be long in the future." His voice was full of pain and sadness.

Li Zhi glanced at Jiang Zhe hesitantly. Jiang Zhe's eyes flashed with an icy coldness, and he said solemnly: "Your Highness, please don't let down the general." Li Zhi sighed and stopped talking.

The master of Fengyi Sect pointed out from a distance. Li Hanyou fell to the ground and fainted. Xiao Lan came over and took the antidote from Xiao Shunzi's hand, and gave it to everyone in Fengyi Sect to drink one by one. Soon, these people were able to move, but their weapons were taken away just in case. The master of Fengyi Sect said coldly: "You must first meet at the place arranged by me. I have left a warrant there. Just follow it. If I can no longer be in charge of Fengyi Sect, Ling Yu will take over." As the sect leader, Wei Ying serves as the guest minister, Ji Xia serves as the law enforcement elder, and Junior Sister Ji, tell Ling Yu that the three of you must work together and not compete with each other for power."

Everyone in Fengyi Sect bowed solemnly and said: "I obey the order of the Sect Master." Then Ji Xia walked out first.

Wei Ying and Feng Feifei followed Ji Xia, and two female Fengyi swordsmen followed with Li Hanyou in their arms. Just as Xiao Lan was about to follow, Li An, who had been paralyzed on the ground, suddenly grabbed Xiao Lan and said, "My beloved, please take me away with you."

Xiao Lan hesitated for a moment, then raised his head to look at Fengyi Sect Master. Fengyi Sect Master shook his head coldly. Xiao Lan lowered his head and looked at Li An. Li An now had no royal bearing at all. Xiao Lan felt disgust in his heart. He exerted great force and kicked Li An away. He easily escaped and walked out of the hall. Li An was so painful that his nose and tears flowed down. Li Zhi frowned and waved his hand, and several guards came forward and dragged Li An aside to prevent him from being embarrassed again.

At this time, Qin Zheng had already lowered his head and walked towards the palace gate. She had to leave. As a rebellious person, if she didn't leave, she would die. However, she was filled with worries because without King Qi's order, it was impossible to mobilize King Qi. The army launched an attack on King Yong's army, so she cooperated with her colleagues to force King Qi to write a handwritten warrant. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, it was her father Qin Wuqi who finally sent the warrant. But now it is obvious that King Qi is not sincere, otherwise Jiang Zhe would not hide with King Qi, then there must be something wrong with the warrant. I am afraid that his father has also been placed under house arrest by King Qi's men. If he rushes now Although it was impossible to command them to save the overall situation when they arrived at King Qi's army, there was still hope of rescuing his father. The relationship between husband and wife has become as thin as a piece of paper, and it is impossible to rescue his beloved son in the capital, so he can only hope to rescue his father. At this moment, Qin Zheng is even more unwilling to lose the only remaining relative in the world.

After walking a few steps, Qin Zheng subconsciously turned around and saw that after seeing the heavy swords, Qi King Li Xian stood with his hands behind his hands. He looked calmly and looked at Qin Zheng steadily, his eyes full of relief and joy. Qin Zheng was shocked, knowing that Li Xian was happy that she could escape. Thinking that because of her actions, King Qi's future would be bleak, and then thinking of Jiao'er in Prince Qi's palace in Chang'an, she stopped. Upon seeing this, King Qi suddenly turned away and stopped looking at Qin Zheng, but Qin Zheng saw his body trembling. He clearly didn't want him to stay because he was worried about his husband.

Qin Zheng was at a loss in her heart. She remembered the women's code she had read since she was a child, which said that when you marry, you must obey your husband. This was originally a sentence she disdained, but now she really understands the true meaning of this sentence. If there is no relationship between husband and wife, If they are of one heart and one mind, then there will only be painful disputes. I think of the desolation of the Queen and Concubine Ji now, of Concubine Changsun and Concubine Yan risking their lives to stand in front of Li Yuan, of Qin Qing who died under Li Hanyou's sword. Qin Zheng finally stopped, and her eyes fell on Li Xian. Although this man had caused her a lot of suffering, how could she have been like this if she hadn't refused to cut off contact with her master, even after she gave him After causing such suffering, this man did not draw a clear line between himself and himself. How could he regret having a husband like this? At this moment, Qin Zheng really regretted not serving her husband wholeheartedly.

At this time, Xie Xiaotong turned around and called her: "Sister, hurry up." Fengyi Sect Master also frowned and said: "Zheng'er, what are you still hesitating about?"

Qin Zheng made up her mind, she turned around and knelt down in the tunnel and said: "Master, please forgive me for not being able to obey your orders." Fengyi Sect Master said coldly: "Zheng'er, you have always been confused, I don't blame you as a teacher. You, do you still have extravagant hopes and hope that His Highness King Qi will save your life?"

Qin Zheng also ignored the master of Fengyi Sect and said loudly: "Qin Zheng, as Princess Yong, does not know how to be loyal to the country, but commits rebellion; Qin Zheng, as a son of a man, cannot advise his father on the way of loyalty, which will cause harm to his family." My father did something inappropriate for my daughter; Qin Zheng, as a wife, did not know how to abide by the rules of women, and taught her husband and children, which was contrary to human ethics; Qin Zheng, as a mother, did not know how to set an example and be good at raising a spoiled child, which caused the child to be implicated by me. Father The emperor, the second emperor brother, the prince has always been loyal to the court. Although the prince and the guilty wife tried to intimidate and coerce him in every possible way, they were unable to mobilize the prince's troops. I ask my father, the second emperor brother and the generals to learn from this. Qin Zheng did such disloyalty. How can you live in this world without being filial, unkind and unjust? Please forgive me, Father."

When Li Xian heard this, he shouted: "Zheng'er, you can't do anything stupid." He was about to stop him, but there were many soldiers and guards between them, and Li Xian's internal strength had not recovered, so he only had time to take a few steps. I saw a golden hairpin in Qin Zheng's hand at some point. The sharp hairpin pointed at her throat. She smiled sweetly. The smile was so bright. It was a beautiful smile that she had never seen since marrying Li Xian. Then the golden light In a flash, the golden hairpin cut his throat, blood burst out, and Qin Zheng had committed suicide. Li Xian only had time to rush over and hold Qin Zheng's delicate body in his arms. He hurriedly used his hands to block the flowing blood, but the blood was pouring out like a fountain, but there was no way to stop it. He cried out sadly: "Zheng'er, Zheng'er, you can't die because I'm sorry for you. I shouldn't let them dominate your life." But Qin Zheng no longer breathed. Li Xian's eyes fell on Fengyi Sect Master, filled with infinite regret and anger. Someone next to him was saying something to him, but he couldn't hear it. He picked up his wife and didn't look at anyone anymore. He staggered out and walked out. The people who wanted to stop him saw the blood and blood on his clothes. Those eyes filled with despair and anger retreated silently. King Yong Li Zhi sighed softly, waved his hand, and several of his cronies followed.

When King Qi's back disappeared, Li Zhi said calmly: "Master Fengyi, are you satisfied? You have instigated a rift between my father, son, and brothers. As a result, now that the disciples of your noble sect have left, please come and take care of me for the time being." I will stay in Qiuju temporarily, and within seven days, I will never send anyone to hunt down the disciples of your noble sect, but the sect leader must also abide by his promise and not leave Qiuwanju for a step."

The master of Fengyi Sect said calmly: "Even without the participation of our sect, how could King Yong give up the throne? Now you have the throne at your fingertips. The prince has conspired to rebel and is no longer qualified to be the emperor. King Qi is also suspected. From now on, you You can kill him or put him under house arrest at will. As for your father, I don’t know if you want to force him to abdicate."

Li Zhi said coldly: "Master, there is no need to worry too much. This is my royal matter. If the master is not at ease, the most I can do is be the hostage of the master."

Fengyi Sect Master glanced at the resentful eyes in the palace, and felt a sense of sadness in his heart. He slowly said: "I have a promise first. Jiang Sima and His Highness King Qi can be hostages. However, I have to make it clear that if Your Highness You can never hide it from me if you send people to hunt down my disciples. If anyone leaves the hunting palace within seven days, I will not give up."

Li Zhi did not retort. His eyes fell on Jiang Zhe. Jiang Zhe's eyes were so cold and determined, full of hatred and death. He nodded firmly. Li Zhi's heart moved. Could it be that Jiang Zhe had already He found a way to achieve the goal of completely destroying the Fengyi Sect, so he said calmly: "I agree to this condition, the sect master please."
