Chapter 926 - Borrowing Someone's Head
Chapter 928
For the first time, Heshen's eyes hesitated. He didn't know that Li Xingya's troops were coming to the city, and Jiangning City could not be defended no matter what.
He can be a lonely minister and rebel son in Jiangnan and repay Li Xing's kindness, but the people of Jiangning should not have dragged them to the funeral together.
Song Youqu took a step forward and said, "Mr. He, I respect you as a person and what you do. There is actually no difference between you and me, but I have no choice but to encounter this troubled world. A hundred years from now, who will remember what you and I did here? If there are fewer deaths, there will be fewer deaths. In this world, there are too many people who have died. ”
He Shen looked at the surging river, and Song Youqu's words pierced into his heart like a knife. Li Xing, Li Xingzai, Cheng Dalei, even if it is the wild fire in the northland, in fact, everyone's purpose is the same. It's just that I want to end this troubled world as soon as possible, so what's the difference between surrendering and not surrendering.
"If Mr. He doesn't think about himself and the people, doesn't he think about Li Lingyun?" Song Youqu was heartfelt: "He is Li Xing's only bloodline in the world, Mr. He doesn't want to think about it, once Jiangning City is breached, can he survive?"
"Will you spare his life?"
"They are all descendants of the Li family, and it is just a family matter. Before I came, His Majesty had already instructed that as long as Mr. He was willing to surrender, he would be able to give that child a lifetime of glory and wealth. ”
He Shen frowned and pondered, if this is the case, he can save Li Lingyun's life, and it can be regarded as repaying Li Xing's kindness.
"And sir!"
A young man's voice suddenly sounded, and He Shen turned his head sharply to see several fast horses galloping towards him.
The first boy jumped off the horse and came to He Shen in three or two steps.
He was wearing an ill-fitting dragon robe, his expression was immature, but his eyes were extremely determined.
turned around, looked at Song Youqu viciously, and said: "Tell your master, there are emperors who died in battle in Jiangnan, and there are emperors who have not surrendered, if he wants to fight, try it." ”
This young man is Li Xing's youngest son, but thirteen-year-old Li Lingyun.
Li Lingyun turned his head, looked at He Shen, and said, "Mr. He, don't be bewitched by him, if you want to surrender, you also have to ask me about my attitude." I'd rather die in battle than bend over to survive. ”
He Shen let out a long sigh, clasped his hands into fists, and gave Li Lingyun a deep salute.
"Obey. ”
Song Youqu stood aside, quite a feeling that he was not a human being. He was a little annoyed in his heart, you are righteous and awe-inspiring, but you seem like a villain. I've done something wrong, and it's wrong to give you a way to live.
He Shen straightened up and faced Song You's channel: "Lord Song, please go back." My monarch and ministers have made up their minds, and they are willing to be buried in Jiangnan, and we will see you in the future, and we will discuss the victory or defeat. ”
Faced with this scene, Song Youqu also had no choice but to leave, and then left Jiangning City non-stop and went back to report to Li Xingya.
He didn't dare to stay long, in case this monarch was angry and wanted his own life.
The monarchs and ministers stood side by side, looking at Song Youqu's distant back.
"Sir, do you want to keep him?"
"The two countries are fighting each other, and they will not be killed. He Shen shook his head: "Besides, killing him has nothing to do with the big thing, it's just forcing Li Xingya to be more ruthless." Most of the family members of the ancestor are in the hands of Li Xingzai, and now looking at the same surname, Li Xingzai is not going to do things absolutely. ”
Li Lingyun nodded: "It's because I owe it." Sir, rest assured, you and I will be able to block Li Xingzai and recover the lost territory, which may not be impossible. ”
He Shen neither nodded nor shook his head, looking into the distance, not knowing what was going on in his heart.
Intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at Li Lingyun and sighed softly in his heart.
In troubled times, what to do with a child. He wanted to defend the city, but no one knew that Jiangning City couldn't stand it. And pulling a child in, He Shen doesn't know whether what he did was right or wrong.
A kind of exhaustion welled up from the bottom of his heart, starting from Heshen's heart, he was no longer willing to fight this battle. But I have no choice but to come to this point, and there is no other way except to go to the dark. After all, there is no way back.
Let's go, in order to repay Li Xing's kindness, this life will be given up.
......
Song Youqu returned to the main camp non-stop, and after meeting Li Xingya, he described in detail the scene after meeting with He Shen.
After hearing this, Li Xingzai fell into a long contemplation, and finally said, "He really said that?"
Song Youqu nodded and said, "The subordinates have been bitter and have said everything that should be said." But that and Shen are really evil, and they don't enter the oil and salt completely. In the end, Li Lingyun came out again, saying that there were only emperors who died in battle, and there were no emperors who surrendered. ”
"That's ......" Li Xingzai sighed, feeling that things were indeed a little difficult, and said, "Why don't you try it with another person?"
"Your Majesty, according to the minister's humble opinion, whoever goes is the same, He Shen is determined to eat the scales, and he wants to play with us. Song Youqu raised his head and said tentatively: "Why don't you do it according to the original arrangement?"
"This ......"
Slaughtering Jiangnan, Li Xingzai, who was full of murderous energy, actually showed hesitation on his face. Because a certain name is too heavy for him.
"So, don't you miss the old love?"
Song Youqu raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, there must be no kindness for a woman." The remnants of Jiangnan are not completely dead, and with the support of Jiangning City, they may resurrect at any time. If you don't cut the grass and don't remove the roots, there will be endless troubles. ”
"Rong Zhen thinks, Rong Zhen thinks. ”
Li Xingzai waved his hand, holding his chin in his hand and falling into deep thought. He really began to think about it seriously, and finally counted it, and considered a total of tea time.
"You can go down and do it yourself, you don't have to consult with me about everything, you can make your own decisions. Li Xingzai didn't even raise his eyelids, he just waved his hand casually, looking indifferent to this matter.
"Yes. ”
Song Youqu agreed and left slowly.
......
The army pressed the border, and now Jiangning has become an isolated city. Everything in the city is in charge of Heshen, so naturally it is busy.
Fortunately, Li Xingya was not in a hurry to attack the city, which gave He Shen plenty of time to adjust his defenses.
However, everyone understands that even if He Shen has the ability to penetrate the world, he will not last long.
Today, the night is already deep, and He Shen is still nested in the study, dealing with all kinds of things in the city.
There was a gentle knock outside the door, and He Shen said "enter", and Boss Zhu came in with tea.
"Sir, you still don't rest?" Zhu Lao Dao.
He Shen took a sip of tea and said, "After the few affairs in my hand are handled, I should also sleep." Why haven't you rested yet?"
Boss Zhu paused and said, "The villain wants to ask Mr. for one thing?"
He Shen sighed and said, "What's the matter, if it's an inconsequential matter, I'll talk about it later." ”
"It's a big deal. Boss Zhu raised his head: "The villain wants to borrow Mr.'s head for use." ”
