Chapter 257 The end of life

Gu Yuan is very smart, but smart people tend to think too much.

Moreover, the word "human heart" is the most complicated, but it is also the most simple and clear.

Mooncake Festival.

Three thousand pieces of red silk, the whole world rejoices.

The new Emperor Gu personally led his envoys into the Imperial City of Chu to propose marriage to Emperor Zhaohe.

However, Emperor Zhaohe was the crown prince of a country, so Emperor Gu proposed the concept of "unification of the world".

Emperor Chu was moved and personally invited Emperor Gu to enter the city.

It is said that the wedding gifts brought by Emperor Gu stretched for several miles.

Chu Xi personally went up to the city wall to greet her. Looking down, Gu Yuan seemed to have changed a lot.

The black crown suit matched his figure very well, making him appear graceful, noble and regal.

Who would have thought that such a king was just a weak proton who could not even control his own destiny a few months ago.

Chu Xi should be extremely conspicuous, after all, she is now a person with two bodies.

Gu Yuan was also looking at Chu Xi below, her eyes full of emotions that she couldn't understand.

Emperor Chu stood beside Chu Xi and received Gu Yuan warmly and gently.

However, only Gu Yuan went up to the city tower, and the wedding team that followed him remained outside the city.

"Xi'er, long time no see."

"It's been a long time indeed." Chu Xi looked at him with a smile, "I didn't know you were so powerful."

"Now, I am qualified enough to walk side by side with you." Gu Yuan slowly approached Chu Xi, her eyes always falling on Chu Xi's bulging belly, "You finally kept him."

Chu Xi touched her belly softly. It was the first time for Gu Yuan to see Chu Xi looking so beautiful and charming.

"No matter what, he is of royal blood and is my child. Naturally, I want to keep him."

Gu Yuan's eyes darkened, and she wanted to reach out and touch the bulge.

It's just that the touch of real flesh and cotton is different after all. Chu Xi took a step back to prevent Gu Yuan from succeeding.

Looking at his disappointed face, Chu Xi approached him with a smile, leaned into his ear and whispered softly: "It was always my father who wanted you to enter the city, not me. So, don't be sentimental, maybe I like it

But you haven’t reached that point either.”

Gu Yuan's expression became visibly stiff, while Emperor Chu coughed twice to express that he could no longer listen.

Chu Xi's expression suddenly changed.

A strange feeling of dizziness hit her instantly. Chu Xi pushed Gu Yuan away suddenly and pointed at Gu Yuan with her trembling index finger. "You..."

Something happened here.

Everything happened in an instant, and countless huge paper kites were hovering in the sky.

But if you look closely, you can see that the kites are all carrying people.

On the city wall, some people drew their swords and pointed them at Emperor Chu. Under the city wall, the envoys who came to welcome the bride took off their red shirts, revealing the cold iron armor underneath.

Chu Xi lost strength for a moment and was pulled into Gu Yuan's arms and forced him with a cold blade.

To be honest, this is the first time in Chu Xi's life that she has been coerced by someone.

"When did you... arrange all this?" Chu Xi weakly leaned her back against Gu Yuan's chest, "You want to kill me?"

"I won't kill you." Although Gu Yuan put the knife against Chu Xi's neck, the blade was far away from Chu Xi's skin. He said loudly to the two parties: "This world is divided into hundreds and thousands.

The year is long overdue for unification. Emperor Chu, what do you think?"

Emperor Chu's expression was cold, as if he was ready to abandon Chu Xi: "Gu Yuan, Xi'er is still pregnant with your child."

Gu Yuan was so close to Chu Xi that he could even smell the fragrance above her head.

From a long time ago, he wanted to hold Chu Xi in his arms like this.

It's just that a girl's heart is cold and her love is even colder.

The only time we had such a close embrace was during this time of war.

"To achieve great things, there will always be some inevitable sacrifices."

"kill--"

With Gu Yuan's order, the battle to seize the city began completely.

Gu Yuan took Chu Xi hostage to the edge of the city wall. From here, he could see the peach grove behind Shangshu Garden.

But now the peach blossoms are withering, and the beautiful scenery of the past can no longer be seen.

"Gu Yuan, do you still remember the first time we met?"

"Remember, that peach forest."

Gu Yuan followed the direction Chu Xi was facing and saw the bare peach forest.

At the beginning, Gu Yuan was covered in mud, but now Gu Yuan is dressed in fine clothes and is the king of a country.

"Gu Yuan, have you seen the blood-stained clothes on the chests of my people?" Chu Xi's tone was very gentle, perhaps because of the weakness in his body, "Gu, this is the Great Chu Emperor Ji,

He will never become his subjects’ weakness.”

"you--"

Chu Xi slammed forward, and when he saw that he was about to be killed by the blade, Gu Yuan quickly let go of his hand.

Look, Chu Xi has never lost when it comes to calculating people's hearts.

Gu Yuan, after all, was still reluctant to let her die.

"Clang-"

The blade fell to the ground, and Chu Xi seized the gap and jumped down from the city wall.

The red robe followed the wind, and Gu Yuan rushed forward, but he didn't even catch a corner of the clothes.

"Chu Xi!"

The hysterical calling gradually faded away, leaving only the whistling wind in Chu Xi's ears.

It's not that she hasn't given Gu Yuan a chance, but that person always goes in the direction he shouldn't go step by step. Because in his heart, power always comes before Chu Xi.

Therefore, Chu Xi played a scene for Gu Yuan, a scene that was enough to break his heart.

Blood-colored flowers spread on the blue stone slabs. Gu Yuan lowered her hands helplessly and knelt on the tower.

Chu Xi closed her eyes, but there was still a bright smile on her lips.

It seemed like he was mocking Gu Yuan's miserable and absurd life.

"I will spend this life with you."

"If you say it, it won't work."

If you say it, it won’t work...

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill--"

The sky was filled with blood and wherever the crowd swept in, Chu Xi's body was gradually covered up.

The young king just stared at the place blankly and murmured: "Xi'er, Xi'er...how could you, how could you..."

However, at this time, no one cared about how desolate Gu Yuan's heart was.

Watching Gu Chao's army break through the city gate, Gu Yuan finally moved his eyes away and looked at the supreme position in the distance.

Heartache?

It must be painful.

But Chu Xi was already dead, and he had no way out.

Once a decision is made, there is no possibility of going back.

The city tower was quickly captured. This battle was caught off guard, and Da Chu had no precautions at all.

The Emperor of Chu retreated to the imperial city under the cover of the imperial guards, and Gu Yuan issued an order not to allow the army to invade the people in the city.

This war was huge, but apart from the two warring parties, there didn't seem to be many casualties.

After the army passed by, Chu Xi slowly appeared from behind the wall.

She took out the prosthetic belly tied around her waist and wiped the ashes from her face.
