Chapter 309 The death of Xiao's grandfather and grandson
Jun Lingyun stepped forward and picked up the letter on the table. After reading four letters with almost the same meaning, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Speaking of Nanyan Kingdom, it can be said that it has good relations with Yunxiao Kingdom now, and it is not impossible that Dongyi Kingdom has Zifeng here.
But the Xizhao Kingdom is currently in civil strife and has too much time to take care of itself. How could it come to join in the fun? There are also the Northern Barbarians. The two countries have been in constant disputes and have never really had good relations. Why did they come this time?
When the emperor saw Jun Lingyun's thinking, it didn't seem like he was faking it. Could it be that it wasn't the prince's handwriting behind it? Is it really such a coincidence?
The emperor asked:
"What do you think should be done?"
"Father, the visitor is a guest. If you refuse, it will be detrimental to the dignity of our great country. When soldiers come, they will block it, and when water comes, the earth will cover it up."
Jun Lingyun's meaning is obvious. If he wants to allow the envoys from the four countries to enter, he only needs to strictly monitor them.
The emperor nodded. Jun Lingyun was right. If even the envoys dare not enter the country, what prestige can the Yunxiao Kingdom have?
"You go ahead and do it. I agree to the customs clearance document."
"Yes, Father."
Jun Lingyun accepted the order and exited the imperial study room.
"Bai Xiao, go find out their purpose."
"Yes, Master."
Jun Lingyun returned to the East Palace, thinking that the defense on the day of his and Xi'er's wedding should be more careful.
"Come here, tell me to go down. If anything happens on my wedding day, I will do my best to protect the Crown Princess at all costs."
The guards were slightly frightened. If something unexpected happened, they would do their best to protect the Crown Princess. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, was putting the Crown Princess's safety above his own.
But the guard thought of Jun Lingyun's love and indulgence towards the Crown Princess, so he swallowed back the words he wanted to persuade.
"Yes, Your Highness, I will take care of it now."
Not long after the guards retreated, the doctor sent by Jun Lingyun to take care of the two people in the dungeon came to see them.
"Greetings to His Highness the Crown Prince. According to your instructions, Duke Xiao will not be able to survive the night."
Jun Lingyun almost forgot about those two people. Back then, he had ordered the doctor to take good care of Xiao Guogong and let him live until his wedding to Xi'er. He could enjoy the days when he and Xiao Hongyan disliked each other.
It was time to solve the problem, so as to avoid the bad luck of his death after his wedding to Xi'er. However, before they died, he still had to take a look. For himself and for Xi'er, it was time to end a relationship that could not be erased.
Remove the pain.
In the dark and damp royal dungeon.
Xiao Hongyan is huddled in the corner. He has gradually become accustomed to the smell, smell, and rotten smell here. But he still can't get used to being locked up with a monster-like dying person every day.
"Hmm...well..."
Waves of chaotic moans sounded from another corner of the cell. It was like the ghosts who died unjustly in hell were trying to seize the souls of people in the world and die with them.
Xiao Guogong, who was supposed to have a crooked mouth and eyes, has now lost his eyes, which are so hollow that people dare not look directly at them.
There was no one to change his clothes and he was covered in filth. Only the prison boss came and fed him a bowl of rice cereal every day to keep him alive.
Later, Xiao Guogong could barely move his arms, so he often dragged his heavy body, groaning, and moved with difficulty a few minutes in the direction of Xiao Hongyan's voice.
So much so that Xiao Hongyan covered his ears tightly and huddled in the corner, daring not to move.
"I didn't harm you, I didn't harm you. You go to Jun Lingyun, you go to Chu Yunxi, don't come to me."
Xiao Hongyan finally couldn't stand it anymore and roared.
"It's all your fault that I ended up in this situation. Why do you come to seek my life? I'm just a tool you use to gain power. Why, you lost and you want to blame me as a tool? Get out of here.
Get away, get out!"
Xiao Hongyan roared, but suddenly he felt a light coming into the cell. The cell leader had just delivered the meal, why was he here again?
He narrowed his eyes in discomfort and finally saw who it was.
Xiao Hongyan hurriedly got up from the ground, grabbed the railing of the cell door, and knelt on the ground again. Tears streamed down his face.
"Brother, brother, I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong. I shouldn't compete with you for women, I shouldn't compete with you for the throne, please, please let me go, don't associate me with that evil ghost again.
We are together. As long as you let me go, I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Before Jun Lingyun came in, he had already covered his mouth and nose with a cloth. Seeing this scene, he still frowned and said, "It's really dirty." He smiled contemptuously.
"Don't forget, you are already a traitor and a traitor, a member of the Xiao family. You have nothing to do with the royal family anymore."
The evil spirit in Xiao Hongyan's mouth, Xiao Guogong, heard Jun Lingyun's voice and shouted excitedly at the cell door.
He wanted to be strong and prosperous all his life. He couldn't kill people without a nod, but Jun Lingyun trampled all his dignity to the ground. He would not be willing to step on it until he stepped into hell.
Sure enough, the bloodthirsty Yama! The bloodthirsty Yama, the bloodthirsty Yama!
"Ah ah..."
Duke Xiao Guogong exhausted all his remaining strength and suddenly his whole body twitched and foamed at the mouth.
Xiao Hongyan's body was trembling, and he was tortured by Xiao Guogong's voice every day. He could no longer control himself. He would be terrified when he heard Xiao Guogong's voice.
"Your Highness, please let me out quickly. Let me out quickly. You can go anywhere. I don't want to stay here anymore. Please."
He knelt down in front of the cell door and kept begging. Looking back at Xiao Guogong, he saw that he had stopped moving and was motionless, as if he was dead?
"Ah, ah, ah, he is dead, he is really dead. Drag the body out, drag it out!"
Xiao Hongyan held his head and hid in the corner again, shaking like chaff.
Jun Lingyun looked at Xiao Hongyan's useless look with cold eyes. A chill filled his body.
"Xiao Hongyan, how dare you torture my own Xi'er? Your dirty hands and dirty heart are only worthy of burning in the fire of hell."
When Xiao Hongyan heard the word "burn", he was so frightened that he lost his mind. He had only plotted against Chu Yunxi once, but he had not succeeded yet. When had he tortured Chu Yunxi?
"Your Highness, please spare your life, spare your life. I will never dare to do it again, not in the next life, the next life, or the next life. You can let me go, don't burn me, don't."
Jun Lingyun took out a rusty knife, which he specially prepared for Jun Hongyan. Such a dull knife could not draw blood stains on the skin without sharpening it several times.
"Clang!"
The rusty knife was thrown to Jun Hongyan by Jun Lingyun.
"This is the last mercy I can give you. Tomorrow morning, if you are still alive, you can be cremated together with your grandfather."
Xiao Hongyan was shaking like chaff and couldn't even say anything to beg for mercy. He already knew what kind of person Jun Lingyun was.
He doesn't care about what he says or what he wants to do, even if the world calls him evil. The only woman he cares about is Chu Yunxi.
Jun Lingyun walked out of the dungeon and looked at the cloudless sky.
Xi'er, in this life, if anyone dares to touch you, I will let him go to hell.
In the dungeon, Xiao Hongyan's endless crazy laughter was heard, mixed with crying and sobbing.
