Chapter 39 The Place of Sighs
"Look at this woman, this woman's belly should be about the same as that of the general's wife. She should be seven or eight months old. If I kill her next, do you think her husband will eat you alive?"
"No, no! Khan, general, please, don't hurt my wife. No."
"Time's up, kill."
General Liao Dan roughly separated the couple, kicked away the man holding his legs, and then pulled the pregnant woman's hair, dragged her bulging belly to the ground, and threw her in front of Lu Wenyong.
The young husband rolled out of the crowd and shouted heartbreakingly through the soldiers' swords:
"Please, Lord Khan, General! Kill me, and use my life to pay for my wife's life!"
"It's useless for you to beg me," King Liao Dan whispered like a ghost, "Your life and death are all in the hands of General Lu. You'd better go and beg him quickly."
"General, general, please promise him! Don't kill him."
The words were choked on his lips. The man watched helplessly as his wife fell into a pool of blood. He felt desperate and looked at the two people standing in the distance with resentment. His neck was crossed and he was hit by the guard's blade.
"Well, since I gave you one for free, I will extend the time for half a stick of incense in the future. Since I will take over Pingzhou in the future, I should let the people know that I am not an unreasonable person."
"Even if it's not for my wife, I, Lu Wenyong, will never surrender even if I die!"
He didn't dare to look at the desperate eyes of those people anymore and clenched his fists, as if to convince himself.
"Does Khan really think that everyone in the world just wants to survive, and ignores the roots of the nation?"
King Dan of Liao clasped his hands and laughed after hearing this silly statement that was not true. "The general is very ambitious, but - even if the general is not afraid of life and death, it is possible that the general is in a high position, just for this so-called foundation, he will not do anything."
Do you care about the life and death of the people?"
"Oh, the time has come—since the general still insists on having his own way, let's go on."
For a time, the fields were filled with mourning and the streets were filled with corpses.
Even the air is filled with a strong smell of blood.
I don’t know how long it took, but Princess Liaodan brought a doctor who was accompanying the army into the house, smiling half-heartedly.
"Miss Chu, it's such a pity. It seems that I have to say goodbye to the girl today."
Princess Liao Dan handed over a piece of white silk and said with a smile, "I heard from the soldiers that the general even offered to die in exchange for the safety of the people of Pingzhou. He is really a selfless man who sacrifices his life for justice."
"Of course, he won't die. It's you who should die now."
As soon as she finished speaking, a group of guards filed in from outside the house and surrounded her. The small room was filled with the blood stained on their bodies, which lingered for a long time.
"Chu Yuelian, your life is really as miserable as your name," the princess pretended to sigh, "I was afraid that you would hold a grudge, and I didn't want you to know, but I shouldn't hide it from you either.
"
She thought for a while and then said: "You know, my father didn't even force him. The general agreed to surrender in less than a moment's thought, and he promised to marry me to show his sincerity."
"Although he married me for profit, Miss Chu, in his eyes, your life cannot be compared with it at all."
Princess Liaodan stuffed the white silk into her arms and glanced at her belly.
"He's a poor man too - you choose."
"I do not believe!"
She threw the white cloth back, her almond-shaped eyes filled with disbelief.
"You just want to trick me into committing suicide. Don't think that I don't know what your plan is."
"Hahaha" Princess Liaodan looked at her as if she were looking at a dying person, "I want to kill you, so why should I lie to you."
She sneered and threw Bai Ling aside, "Since Miss Chu refuses, let's use other means."
"Princess, she still has the child of General Zhongyuan in her belly."
Someone reminded.
Princess Liao Dan thought for a while, then said softly: "Then let's leave the mother to the son."
Two magpies flew by outside the window, and she realized that it was already spring.
The body was cut and torn apart by sharp blades.
She opened her eyes with all her strength and tried to reach out for the light in front of her.
Suddenly, he fell into darkness.
There are sounds of chanting in the distance.
It was the sound of triumphant return from a great victory.
It was as if I heard the weak cry of a child, like a kitten.
"My husband is back! It's so late. As a punishment, you won't be allowed to have a bridal chamber tonight."
She pretended to be angry.
"It's my fault, I came late."
He leaned over, lifted her up in the air, and whispered into her ear.
Feeling the warm air on her neck, she felt a little embarrassed and punched his chest moderately.
The smile on the man's lips became more obvious, he grabbed her hand and rubbed it.
"Husband!"
She stretched out her arms and hugged the man tightly, and softened her voice in surprise.
There was no response. The man in white who had been holding her for a long time laughed and said softly:
"I am not your husband."
Um?
Her eyes were heavy, and she opened them with difficulty. What came into those clear black and white almond eyes was a completely unfamiliar face.
Fengshen was handsome, with gentle facial features, and a bit of femininity in the contours of his face. Under the black forehead ring, a pair of green eyes stared at her with unknown meaning, with a bit of evil intent.
I don't know why, but this handsome and gentle man in front of me makes people feel unspeakable fear.
Dragging the pain in her abdomen, she struggled out of bed and rushed out the door.
But the door seemed to have some invisible barrier, blocking her back hard and causing her to fall to the ground.
She didn't give up and kept doing it over and over again, but it was still the same.
The man stood aside and looked at her with a smile on his face.
"Who are you?"
She fell to the ground weakly, her voice trembling.
"How pitiful."
The man squatted down and touched her face with his slender hands.
"Stay here and don't leave, okay?"
His voice seemed to be drugged, like a demon.
In that bottomless gaze, as if she suddenly remembered something, she raised her hand and touched her belly, which was flat. Only the faint pain could evoke her nightmare.
This is what true liver and intestine rupture looks like.
A piece of white silk was thrown carelessly on her body, which was intended to hang her, and her dissected abdomen was hastily sewn shut.
She opened her eyes, thinking that she would definitely die, but she still saw the moonlight that night.
This was a mass grave, filled with rotting corpses and maggots. The disgusting smell made her vomit several times.
The wound quickly became inflamed, and with some untreated rotten flesh, he gritted his teeth and dragged his legs out from under the pile of dead people.
It rained heavily.
She lay on the countless corpses as if relieved, spreading her arms, as if the unexpected rainstorm could wash away the dirt on her body.
The blood from the wound in her lower abdomen was still oozing out uncontrollably. She closed her eyes and her forehead felt hot.
In a daze, someone stretched out his hand to explore her jugular. She subconsciously turned her head to avoid it, but she made the person feel a little dissatisfied.
"Really disobedient."
"But no one has ever dared to disobey me."
