The cloth in his mouth was taken off, and the black scarf on his head was also taken off. Yang Hao moved his numb mouth and looked at the woman in front of him speechlessly. A red battle coat, a blue belt, and white fox velvet hanging down.
She wears a tasseled felt hat and is dressed like a palace guard.
Charming eyebrows, bright eyes, Yao nose and cherry lips, as beautiful as flowers, but the eyes looking down at him from top to bottom make people very uncomfortable. Arrogance, hatred, indifference, and a trace of hidden deepness
humiliation.
After a long while, Yang Haocai sighed and whispered: "That day... was it you?"
Xiao Chuo said coldly: "Otherwise, who should it be?"
"How...is she? And...and..."
"You don't have to have any illusions. I can let you think of something wrong with her, and naturally she can also think of Luo Kedi, Tong Yu, and Wang Tieniu. I have killed many people in the past few days, but... they are still alive, because
I want to understand why they came and what they are going to do. Now I know that they have no ill intentions towards me, but they betrayed me. This reason is enough. They... will die with you.
.”
Yang Hao's expression changed slightly, and then he smiled faintly: "This is not beyond my expectation. Since the foreign minister insulted Your Majesty, I never thought that I could still live. But... Dong'er doesn't know anything.
, that night, I didn’t know you would come at all, otherwise I would not go at all. She told me that His Majesty would not go that night..."
A blush finally appeared on Xiao Chuo's pale cheeks, and he shouted with uncontrollable shame and anger in his voice: "Even if it's your own wife, can you use rape?"
Yang Hao smiled bitterly: "The foreign minister... practiced a kind of inner strength and mental method, which is a Taoist double cultivation method. That night, the inner demon of the foreign minister came back and lost his mind, so..., otherwise, it would not have happened.
Your Majesty is madly mad..."
"Stop talking." The tall jade rabbit on Xiao Chuo's chest jumped sharply a few times. Her breasts were straight and firm, with graceful outlines. Although they were not very big, when she leaned towards him, they became even taller invisibly.
She calmed down her breathing and then said: "The female official I rely on the most is actually your wife, and the few palace guard generals I promoted and promoted are actually your brothers. I really didn't expect it. Yes, that one
They don't know what happened in the evening, but based on this, they have a way to die."
Yang Hao stared deeply at the queen in front of him and said in a deep voice: "In other words, they have to pay the price for your ignorance?"
Xiao Chuo looked at him and sneered: "So what? I treated them well and promoted a few slaves to become masters. Do I have to pretend to be generous and let them go now, so that everyone in the world knows that I, Xiao Chuo
Are their confidants defecting to the Central Plains? Since their hearts are not here, they should be buried here forever."
Yang Hao knew that when she appeared here today, he and Dong'er were at the last moment. When she appeared, it meant that their lives had come to an end. But he really couldn't bear to die so unjustly and silently.
Reluctantly, knowing that it was impossible, he still made the final struggle.
He asked back: "Your Majesty is good at killing Song envoys, so aren't you afraid of provoking a war between the two countries?"
Xiao Chuo smiled and said: "You and I have a letter of credence to make concessions, which one is more important? The Song Dynasty has been fighting continuously, and the country is poor and the people are exhausted. If a war starts with me at this time, it will only end in a lose-lose situation. Zhao Kuangyin will do it for
Are you rashly starting a war? What’s more, Song Ting
I will never know the truth. The scapegoat has been found. Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you. Because of you, many people have died these days. My power is more stable than ever. No one will restrain or threaten me anymore. This
It’s all thanks to you.”
This was the second time Yang Hao heard her say that many people had died in the past few days. He couldn't help but ask: "Dong'er, Luo Kedi, Tong Yu, they are all safe and sound. Who died?"
Xiao Chuo told all his proud tricks one by one. Yang Hao was silent for a long time and sighed softly: "What a scheming idea and what a trick!"
"Thank you for the compliment." Xiao Chuo slowly pulled out a short knife, used the sharp blade to open Yang Hao's clothes, pointed the tip of the knife at his heart, and whispered: "Now, you can die, you don't have to
Worry, your wife and your brother, I will send them on their way one by one, you go to Huangquan Road first and wait for them."
Senhan's sharp knife tip cut a wound on the chest skin, and blood came out. She gently touched Yang Hao's chest with her delicate fingers, picked up the crystal blood drop, and gently brought it to her mouth, slowly
He sucked it slowly, licked his lips with endless aftertaste, and said softly with blurred eyes: "You are like that
To me, I just killed you with one blow, which has gone against my, Xiao Chuo, principle of life. There is no one else here, so I might as well tell you a secret, no matter how reluctant I was at the time, but it was you who made me realize
The joy of being a woman, even if it's only once in a lifetime..."
Xiao Chuo's cheeks were as red as blood, and there was a trace of tenderness in her eyes. She gently stroked Yang Hao's stubbled cheeks, and her voice trembled slightly: "Sometimes, I also long to be a woman, a woman who makes people feel loved and pitied.
a woman, rather than aloof,
The queen who honors the world. Unfortunately, in life, most of the time, you have no control over yourself. You cannot make the decision on many things yourself. Even if you are the emperor... it is impossible. Since you must die, you can only die in my hands.
I don’t want others to kill you..."
Yang Hao finally despaired. He knew that in this hunting ground of power, Xiao Chuo was like a female wolf king surrounded by wolves. She would always show her strong, cold and rational side to everyone. When she once
When she takes off her disguise, reveals her true feelings in front of others, and shows her weak side without scruples, when she feels that there is no need to hide herself in front of that person, who can make her who is always on guard completely undefended?
?Only dead people…
He closed his eyes and said with a wry smile: "I thought that even if there were any mistakes in my plan, I would be captured by you on the way to escape, but I really didn't expect that I would end up here. I came all the way to Saibei just to find my way back.
My dear wife, taking away my brother and offending Your Majesty was not my intention. It was a mistake and it is not Yang Hao's fault!
Dong'er is my beloved wife, Luo Kedi and Tong Yu, and Tieniu are my brothers. They are favored by His Majesty and given high officials and generous salaries, but they have also made great contributions to His Majesty through life and death. Coming to Khitan,
It was not what they wanted. Now they just want to return to their homeland and their relatives. They do not want to murder His Majesty, let alone betrayal. They are not wrong either.
If an ordinary woman encountered such an encounter, she would have been in agony. However, after His Majesty returned to the palace, he quickly calmed down and seized the opportunity to take advantage of the "disappearance" of the three palace guards and the female minister to lay out such a series of plans.
The clan forces that threatened the imperial power have been wiped out. From this point of view, what Yang Hao did may not be the reason why His Majesty is so ashamed and angry."
Xiao Chuo felt that all her disguises were being stripped off one by one in front of him, and her true self was exposed nakedly in front of him. She couldn't help but feel a little flustered. She opened her mouth and said: "I..."
Yang Hao continued to talk to himself: "Actually, this is normal. No matter which woman reaches your majesty's status and looks down on all living beings from the nine heavens, she will not just stare at herself like a boudoir woman raised in a deep house.
Some things about women will be taken lightly by her. Your Majesty wants to kill me, not so much because a man has offended a woman, but because our escape has damaged your Majesty's reputation and yours.
Power. As a ruler, there is nothing wrong with you doing this..."
"you……"
Yang Hao stared at her, with a calm and serene smile emerging from the corner of his mouth: "As the Queen of the Prison State, Your Majesty is an almost perfect ruler. As a woman, and a woman among women, everything that happened that night
, I remember them all. Since His Majesty told me frankly, there is no need for me to hide it when I am about to die. To be frank..., Yang Hao also still has fresh memories of that night, and he still thinks about it..."
Xiao Chuo's face became increasingly red, and even his ears and neck were as red as a red-hot shrimp.
Strip away the disguise and put aside the heavy responsibilities on her shoulders, and she is just a young woman in her mid-twenties. She may be talented and talented and has the qualifications to be a ruler, but if she is born in a small family and marries
An ordinary man, then she is just a smart, capable and somewhat powerful wife at best.
But she is not. She was born into the Khitan Xiao family, which has produced queens for generations. She married into the palace and became the Khitan queen. Hidden in her is the coldness, wisdom, and decisive ability that a ruler should have, just like a heart.
When the seeds are buried in the right soil, they will grow quickly after being nourished by rain and dew. She buried her head among the piles of memorials and documents all day long, and she had gradually forgotten that she was also a woman.
But at this moment, she returned to her true nature. She had an indescribable complex emotion towards the man who had taken possession of her through violent means. Now that he was about to die, she didn't mind allowing him to be wild once before he died.
.At this moment, she is no longer the cold-blooded queen who can kill thousands of people without even blinking when she gives an order. She is just a woman, a woman with seven emotions and six desires...
Yang Hao slowly closed his eyes and whispered: "I heard from Dong'er that your Majesty is skilled in bow and horse and has excellent skills. Please use your sword faster. When I was learning swordsmanship from General Cheng, I once heard him say that from now on
A single cut through the second rib on the left side can hit the heart and kill you immediately. The death will be painless..."
Xiao Chuo's eyes were gradually filled with mist, but they were as bright as gems, shining with sparkling light.
Her voice also became very soft and gentle: "Don't worry, I will use the knife... it will be quick... soon..."
The knife was raised high, and the hand holding the handle was tightly clenched, and the light green veins on the back of the palm were stretched, but it was stable without any trembling.
"One life, one autumn, one autumn. Although my life is short, I have lived a colorful and contented life. Madam Xiao, Dong'er and I are waiting for you under the underworld. Maybe when we meet again, you will still be
She has a face as beautiful as a flower, and is as beautiful as a wife. By that time, we should be able to abandon the barriers of each other's identity and status, forget about today's grudges, and get drunk with wine and talk, right?"
Xiao Chuo sighed softly: "Do you always think about the best side of everything? When we meet in Huangquan, it is very likely that... I will already be an old woman with chicken skin and white hair.
When I come back and tremble like a candle in the wind, I'm afraid you won't recognize me at all, and you don't want to recognize me either."
"Maybe. Originally I would never doubt your statement, but now it seems... it may not be possible. The day when we meet again in Huangquan may come soon, very... very soon..."
Yang Hao's voice became lower and lower, until he was almost talking to himself. The vague Xiao Chuo could no longer hear clearly: "Zhao Guangyi led his troops to the south of the Yangtze River, Handerang returned to the west with his life, the Khitan Emperor was assassinated and was critically ill, and the Queen Mother Xiao
Having taken control of the most powerful country in the world in advance, it has changed... too much has changed.
A heavy rain forced Chen Sheng and Wu Guang to rebel, triggering the collapse of the Qin Empire; a newspaper determined the Red Army's way out, leading to the 25,000-mile Long March; some beef tallow and lard became the fuse of the Indian National Uprising...
, a Yang Hao... Although he came and went in this world like a comet, he brought the changes I made to this world.
I don’t know how big this change will be, and I don’t know what kind of future this world will lead, let alone whether it will be a disaster or a blessing to the people in the future. I only know that the me in the previous life was a cocoon, and the me in this life,
It is a butterfly. Although it is short-lived, it is infinitely wonderful. This life... I have not lived in vain..., doll, Yanyan, Miaomiao, I'm sorry..."
Xiao Chuo tried hard to listen, but still couldn't hear what he was saying, so he sneered and said: "What's wrong? Now, I have great power, and there is no power in the court that can compete with me. I am still young,
How could I die? Who can kill me?"
Yang Hao ignored the sharp blade hanging on his chest and said with a smile: "On the endless prairie, lions, leopards, hyenas, feather sheep, yellow deer... all kinds of animals live there.
When there is a severe drought on the grassland, the ponds disappear one by one, the rivers are cut off one by one, and only the deepest and largest lakes become the last chance for wild animals to survive. What animal do you think will survive in the end...?"
No matter how strong Xiao Chuo's will is, she is still a woman in her prime. The curiosity in her heart is unavoidable. She couldn't help but reply: "Then there is no need to think about it. The one who survives in the end is of course the lion."
"Wrong, it's a feathered sheep and a yellow deer."
"How is that possible?"
"Why is it impossible? The water source is getting less and less. In order to compete for the life-saving water, the strongest beasts will wait at the water's edge day and night. Weak animals will be eaten by them when they come to the water's edge, so the weakest animals have to give up.
The lakes are gradually drying up, and they are fleeing to farther places in search of water sources.
Along the way, they will continue to die of hunger and thirst, and will continue to be eaten by the powerful beasts waiting there by the lake. However, some of their groups can always escape and finally find a way to survive. However, those who guard the lake and so on
What about the powerful beast on the grassland? When it
The lake they were waiting for dried up. When they could no longer wait for food and wanted to escape from the land of death, it was already too late. They could no longer find a drop of water or food along the way.
, in the end, they all had no choice but to die on the way to escape.
Today's Khitan is the drought-stricken grassland, and you, the empress, are the lion guarding the water source. Everyone is trembling under your feet, but the root of the disaster has not been eradicated. As long as the drought is not resolved, the crisis will
It always exists, and in the end, the empress will end up like that lion. Perhaps, the rain will come before the last drop of water dries up? Haha, what Yang said is just a possibility..."
Yang Hao compared the crisis to a drought, referring to King Qing who fled to the northwest. He had already embraced death, and his mood calmed down. The spiritual platform became clear for a while. He suddenly thought that his secret identity might become his
The last way to avoid death is to reach a political alliance with Xiao Chuo, then you can save yourself and Dong'er and defeat him.
Their lives, although the bargaining chip was still too small. However, he suddenly thought, will Xiao Chuo definitely choose him? Do you believe that the power he has is strong enough? If she chooses the Li family of Xiazhou as a partner
What should we do with our partners? That’s it for people like us who are in jail. Those in Luzhou are also going to be trapped in a place of no return.
Thinking of this, Yang Hao couldn't help but hesitate, but he didn't notice that what he said touched her mind. Xiao Chuo quietly lowered the sharp knife he held high in his hand, and she seemed to be lost in thought.
It was quiet in the cell, Xiao Chuo
Her eyes flickered, and she didn't know what she was thinking about. The childlike mood she had just accidentally released gradually faded away, and her expression was slowly recovering, just like a god's mask on her face, which had just accidentally melted, and was now re-solidifying and covering her face.
Her appearance.
When the occasional flash of lust, shyness and tenderness on her face was being replaced by her usual calmness, elegance, nobility and perseverance, when her eyes returned to indifference and shrewdness, Xiao Chuo became Empress Xiao again.
.
She returned the sword to its sheath, Yingying stood up, high and graceful, and in an instant she was back above the nine heavens.
Yang Hao looked at her in surprise. Xiao Chuo raised his hand and lowered his veil to cover his appearance: "It's a very good story. I will think about it carefully."
"Um?"
"Thanks for the reminder, I have changed my mind."
Yang Hao was shocked and said in surprise: "Is your Majesty going to let me go?"
"Do you think it's possible?"
Xiao Chuo sneered. She walked towards the door and said calmly: "I think the story you told is very interesting. I really want to listen to you tell it again. When your story is finished, your life will also be different."
It’s come to an end…”
The cell door closed and the footsteps gradually faded away. Yang Hao stared at the roof with a puzzled look on his face: "You still want to hear me tell stories... One Thousand and One Nights? This Khitan Queen is the one who likes to listen to stories.
The tyrant Caliph is reincarnated? Then who am I? When the books are used, I will miss them. I really don’t read much of "Animal World", I only have one meal a day... and it’s just gone?"
