Chapter 109 The General is Humiliated (12)
12
The system said confidently: "We want them all!"
Zhu Qingchen held it down and stuffed it into his sleeve: "Shut up, Yuwen Shu is still outside, it would be bad if he heard it."
The system was still shouting: "Just hear it, we ministers deserve the best... woo woo woo..."
Zhu Qingchen pinched it tightly: "Stop talking, shut up!"
“I know…I know…”
Zhu Qingchen threw it on the bed: "Turn on the cartoon and wait for me."
"Oh." The system fell on the pillow and took out its small screen.
Zhu Qingchen originally wanted to climb onto the bed to watch cartoons, but he found a pile of luggage in front of the bed.
He just came back today, and his guards put his luggage in his room and didn't dare to move it.
Zhu Qingchen pursed his lips, opened the box and prepared to pack it up.
The system asked him: "What do you think?"
Zhu Qingchen said seriously: "Anyway, I will keep my distance from the villains."
He was going home, Li Yue was waiting for him at home.
The villain also wants to go home, and his friends are waiting for him.
They are just colleagues working on a task together.
Zhu Qingchen had always thought of him as Li Yue, but now that he realized what was going on, he felt that something was not right.
He shouldn't be like this, he's a little bad guy.
Zhu Qingchen closed the box, was too lazy to tidy it up, so he pushed it aside and climbed onto the bed.
The system said: "The cartoon I downloaded only has the last episode left."
"What?" Zhu Qingchen was shocked. "Then, then, then..."
"You can't watch it online, or the control center will find out."
"No--"
Zhu Qingchen lost all his strength, hugged the pillow, fell straight on the bed, and kicked his feet hard.
He wants to watch cartoons!
The system stayed by his side: "How tragic, Chenchen. Not only did you lose your man, you also lost the cartoon."
Zhu Qingchen said in a muffled voice: "If you don't comfort me, I will feel better."

The next morning.
Zhu Qingchen didn't want to run into Yuwen Shu and avoid embarrassment, so he took Chu Yunyang into the palace early.
There was no court session today, but Xiao Cheng'an was diligent and got up before dawn to study.
Zhu Qingchen took the two students to study together. After a while, the weaving house sent a tailor to the palace to measure Xiao Chengan for clothes.
Zhu Qingchen happened to be taking a break, so he raised his hand, called the attendant, and asked casually, "How is the Wei family doing?"
The attendant said, "My Lord, Young Master Wei also entered the palace early in the morning. He must have had a nightmare and went straight to the dark room as soon as he entered the palace."
"Yeah." Zhu Qingchen nodded, "Let him be."
It has been agreed that the person will be handed over to him for disposal, so let's leave it to him.
This is his knot in his heart, and he has to untie it himself.
*
The coronation ceremony of His Royal Highness Prince Kang was being prepared in an orderly manner, and more than ten days passed.
Taking this opportunity, the grassland also sent envoys to congratulate the peace talks.
One night, we arrived at the posthouse outside the city.
After a brief reorganization, we will prepare to go to Beijing for a visit early tomorrow morning.
That morning, Zhu Qingchen got up early and woke up Yuwen Shu who was sleeping next door.
"Let's go, we have to leave the city early."
After the two of them simply washed up, Zhu Qingchen took Yuwen Shu and slipped out of the back door of the Duke of Ying's Mansion, rode their horses, and left the city.
Zhu Qingchen put him at the entrance of the posthouse and said, "Go down, and lead the team into the city later."
Yuwen Shu looked at him with his usual aggrieved look: "Master Zhu, why did you pick me up and throw me away like you were throwing away the garbage in the morning?"
Zhu Qingchen choked up and said, "Don't look at me like that. Go in quickly!"
Yuwen Shu said sternly, "No, I want everyone to know that I have already arrived in the capital of Nanxia and have been living in the Duke of Ying's mansion for a while."
Zhu Qingchen raised his hand to hit him: "I'll beat you to death, go in!"
Zhu Qingchen turned around and shouted towards the inn: "Your regent is here! Come out to greet him!"
Yuwen Shu still wanted to chase him, but Zhu Qingchen turned his horse around and rode away, leaving him no chance to catch up.
Yuwen Shu had no choice but to straighten his clothes and walk into the inn.
The villain system said, "Why are you so attached to him? You can't even be apart for a quarter of an hour."
Yuwen Shu did not answer.
Nonsense, how could he not stick to Zhu Qingqing?
Not long after, a foreign boy in his teens came out with soldiers to greet them.
The boy had blue eyes, a hooked nose, high cheekbones, and looked a little gloomy.
He looked at Yuwen Shu and saluted: "Uncle Wang."
This is the fifth prince of Northern Zhou, Yuwen Zan.
When Yuwen Shu first arrived here, he encountered the death of the old emperor and the princes were fighting for the throne. In the name of regent, he supported an obedient prince to take the throne. He originally wanted to kill the remaining princes to prevent future troubles.
But he thought of Zhu Qingqing.
If it were Zhu Qingqing, she would definitely not like to kill innocent people.
So he didn't kill them, but instead took away the power from them.
The fifth prince looked too gloomy, and Yuwen Shu was not comfortable with him staying in the grassland, so this time, he specially asked him to lead the team here.
It's better to keep an eye on him to prevent him from making any small moves.
Yuwen Shu responded calmly: "Well, go in."
After saying this, he no longer paid attention to Yuwen Zan and turned to walk into the inn.
Yuwen Shu simply washed his face, changed into grassland man's clothes, and walked out of the inn.
The group is ready to go.
On the other side, Zhu Qingchen rode his horse, hurrying back to the capital.
He had just arrived at the city gate when, by chance, the Duke of Zhenguo also came out of the city with his men.
They will welcome the grassland peace negotiation team together.
Zhu Qingchen dismounted, sniffed, adjusted his breathing, and stood with his back to them as if nothing had happened.
When the Duke of Zhenguo saw him, he thought he had just arrived and greeted him with a smile: "Young Master, you are here so early."
Zhu Qingchen nodded slightly: "Well, this is a serious matter, I dare not neglect it, so I arrived early."
The system's expression was complicated: "You are really good at pretending."
Zhenguo Gong straightened his armor, walked forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
Zhu Qingchen said casually: "If the peace talks are successful this time, the Duke of Zhenguo won't have to work so hard to guard the northwest."
The Duke of Zhenguo held the sword at his waist, raised his head, and said happily: "Yes, I would rather never fight a war."
After waiting for a while, Zhou Guo's troops appeared on the other side of the official road.
The regent of Zhou State, who was in the lead, had an agate headband, long curly hair, and a black wolfskin cloak. He rode a tall black horse and came from a distance with a hundred people.
Soon, the Regent and his men arrived.
Yuwen Shu turned over and dismounted, raised his right hand, pressed it on his left shoulder, and saluted Zhu Qingchen: "Young Master, long time no see."
Zhu Qingchen waved his sleeves and bowed: "Regent, how are you?" In fact, they had just separated.
The two systems said at the same time: "You two are really good at pretending."
Yuwen Shu held Zhu Qingchen's hand, supported the back of his hand, and wanted to kiss his hand again.
This is also the etiquette of the grassland, the etiquette towards close friends!
But Zhu Qingchen opened his eyes wide, moved slightly closer, and looked at him very seriously.
Do you dare?
Yuwen Shu smiled, and finally just touched the back of Zhu Qingchen's hand with his cheek.
I dare not.
That's more like it. Zhu Qingchen took his hand back: "Please, Regent."
Yuwen Shu nodded and smiled, "Young Master, please."
The two men mounted their horses and entered the city side by side.
The people had long been talking about the regent of the grassland. Some said he was nine feet tall, like a small mountain; others said he was a big, dark-faced man who was feared by everyone on the grassland and made ghosts howl when they saw him.
Now that I see him, he is indeed a tall and big man, and looks quite scary.
but……
He's quite handsome, and standing with the young master, it seems like the two countries are making peace.
Zhu Qingchen led the Northwest delegation to meet His Royal Highness Prince Kang.
After a brief meeting, they were asked to settle down in the inn in the city and wait to attend King Kang's coronation ceremony.
*
A few days later, July 23rd was calculated as an auspicious day by the Ministry of Rites.
Everything was ready. Xiao Cheng'an, wearing heavy imperial robes and holding a jade sceptre in his hand, climbed the white jade steps step by step to offer sacrifices to the heavens and his ancestors.
Four regents stood at the front of all the officials. Zhu Qingchen, dressed in a crimson official uniform, stood among them with a very smug look on his face.
After Xiao Cheng'an stepped onto the altar, big drums were beaten in the four directions of east, south, west and north to announce it to the world.
At the same time, the deposed emperor was lying in a dark room, dirty and dying, with rats crawling over his body wantonly. He vaguely heard the sound of drums coming from outside.
This is the drumbeat signaling the emperor's ascension to the throne.
He had also heard it in the year he ascended the throne.
After the drumbeat, everyone flattered and complimented him.
As long as he pretended to be a wise ruler, those ministers who were as stupid as pigs would believe him.
Who is on the throne now?
That useless King Kang? How is that possible?
He is the emperor! He is the emperor!
How can King Kang ascend the throne when he is not dead yet? !
In a trance, he seemed to see those who had been tortured to death by him slowly approaching him.
These people were disheveled, with blood on their faces and bodies. They emerged from the darkness, approached him, and asked the same question that Wei Yuan had asked him before:
"Why? Why do you treat me like this?"
A sticky feeling surged up his throat, and the deposed emperor struggled to get up from the bed, spitting out blood while shouting, "I am the emperor! I am the true dragon emperor! I have dragon energy to protect my body! You lonely ghosts, what right do you have to come and take my life? Come, protect me! Protect me!"
Those who were killed by him sneered and said to him: "Your Majesty, now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, you are no longer your Majesty. What kind of emperor are you? What real dragon is protecting you?"
The next second, they broke through the obstacles and pounced on the deposed emperor.
The deposed emperor turned and ran, his screams echoing in the dark room: "Someone come! Protect the emperor!"
Under the bright blue sky, Xiao Cheng'an was holding up a jade sceptre and reciting words to offer sacrifice to the heavens.
Zhu Qingchen stood below, looking at him with a look of satisfaction.
Although this child is a little timid, he can still keep his composure when things are serious, which is pretty good...
Suddenly, a feather of light took advantage of the sunlight and landed between Zhu Qingchen's eyebrows.
Zhu Qingchen felt his head sink, his legs and feet went limp, and he couldn't help but fall backwards.
Yu Wenshu, who was standing next to him, quickly supported him and asked, "Master Zhu?"
The people around were terrified: "Young Master? Young Master!"
Xiao Chengan on the altar also turned around and opened the tassel: "Teacher!"

[Title: Deposed Emperor Becomes a Slave]
[Era: Ancient times]
[Tags: Court Marquis, Sadomasochism, Love Chasing Crematorium]
The protagonist of this article is named...Xiao Cheng'an.
Xiao Cheng'an is the eighth prince of Daxia. Because his mother was of humble origin, he was not favored in the palace.
When his father passed away, his elder brother Xiao Chengming ascended the throne and killed all his brothers except him.
Because he was cowardly and timid, he posed no threat to the imperial power.
In this way, he spent his childhood and youth walking on thin ice in the gloomy palace.
It was not until he was eighteen that the northwestern grasslands invaded.
The mighty general Chu Yunyang stepped forward and led his troops to fight the enemy.
Chu Yunyang was extremely brave. Not only did he defeat the enemy forces in the northwest, he also signed a peace treaty with the northwest, and the two sides agreed not to invade each other.
To show their sincerity, Xibei sent a hostage named Yuwen Zan. The emperor regarded Yuwen Zan as a trophy and placed him in the palace, close to Xiao Chengan.
On the day Yuwen Zan entered the palace, Xiao Cheng'an went to see him secretly.
He was a boy who was even younger than him, looking like a wild wolf with a gloomy face.
Because he was a grassland man, and with the emperor's tacit approval, the eunuchs in the palace bullied him, and the young masters outside the palace often came to the palace to find him.
They said they were playing together, but in fact they were just playing a prank on him.
Yuwen Zan was not well fed or clothed in the palace, and he often had to hold an apple on his head as a target and crawl on the ground like a dog.
Xiao Chengan saw this and felt a little sad.
Although he himself was not living well, he would still give half of his food to Yuwen Zan and put it in his room when Yuwen Zan was hungry, and would also give him some medicine when Yuwen Zan was injured.
But his actions caused dissatisfaction among the eunuchs.
Especially his personal eunuch Chen Xun, who was about the same age and height as him, and often cried poor to him and took his things.
Now with the addition of Yu Wenzan, Chen Xun can get less.
Xiao Chengan had no choice but to give him all his things to shut him up.
One year of autumn hunting.
Xiao Cheng'an was wandering in the woods alone when he happened to run into Yuwen Zan who was being bullied.
Yuwen Zan was pushed to the ground, his head hit on a stone, and blood gushed out.
Those young masters also said that he was pretending to be dead and asked him to get up quickly.
Xiao Chengan shouted, drove away those who bullied him, and ran forward quickly.
Yuwen Zan was afraid that he would not save him, so he took out a low-quality jade pendant from his arms and stuffed it into his hand: "Please...save me...reward..."
Human life was at stake, Xiao Chengan didn't have time to care about all that, he quickly bandaged his wounds and carried him on his back: "Come on, I'll carry you back."
Xiao Cheng'an was thin and did not ride a horse or bring any servants with him. He could only carry Yuwen Zan on his back and walk step by step on the mountain road.
Not long after, the sky became gloomy again and a loud thunder roared.
Yuwen Zan was awakened by the thunder and whispered, "It's going to rain. Leave me here and run back to call someone."
Xiao Chengan shook his head and continued to walk forward with him on his back: "No, I don't know the way. If I leave, you will die here."
Yuwen Zan said gloomily: "I am a grassland person."
Xiao Chengan said seriously: "The people of the grassland are also human beings."
Yuwen Zan asked again: "Have we met somewhere before? Did you give me the food and medicine in my room?"
"Yeah." Xiao Cheng'an responded sullenly, quickened his pace and continued walking forward.
Yuwen Zan paused, as if thinking about something: "What's your name? Where do you work now?"
Xiao Cheng'an thought for a moment and whispered, "I am... Xiao Chengzi of Changqiu Palace."
He didn't dare reveal his true identity. If others knew it, he would be in big trouble.
Yuwen Zan thought he was just a eunuch, and finally said: "I will remember it and repay you in the future."
The sky was getting darker and darker, and when Xiao Cheng'an returned to the camp carrying Yuwen Zan on his back, it started to rain.
The camp was brightly lit and all the imperial guards were deployed.
A group of people knelt before him and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty!"
Only then did Xiao Chengan know.
That afternoon when he was not in the camp, the mighty general Chu Yunyang killed his brother.
While they were making love, Chu Yun raised his hand and stabbed his brother in the heart with the dagger, killing him instantly.
Now the emperor only has him as his brother, and Chu Yunyang wants to help him ascend to the throne.
But he doesn't know how to be an emperor.
He had never been to school and only knew two words. He would not be an emperor.
Chu Yunyang said, "It doesn't matter. Your Highness is kindhearted. He is better than the emperor if he does whatever he wants."
Xiao Chengan could only nod in agreement.
On the night he became emperor, he issued three decrees.
The first decree made Chu Yunyang the Duke of Zhenguo and allowed him to return to the northwest to be a free eagle.
As his first decree, he sent an imperial physician to treat Yuwen Zan's injuries, and also replaced the eunuchs and palace maids around him to ensure that he would have enough food and clothing and would not be bullied again.
With the third decree, he beat all the eunuchs who had bullied him in the past with ten strokes of the cane and drove them out of the palace.
As for the rest...
Xiao Cheng'an would not be an emperor, so he could only study hard day and night, trying to make up for his lack of skills in governing a country. Out of kindness, he reduced taxes and exempted levies for the people.
He worked diligently and treated everyone kindly, and was praised by both the government and the public.
Everything seems to be getting better.
But he didn't notice that Yuwen Zan looked at him with resentment and hatred.
Three years later, the Northern Zhou emperor passed away. Yuwen Zan returned to the country to attend the funeral, and quickly launched a coup, beheading the regent and other brothers, and ascended the throne himself.
As soon as he ascended the throne, he tore up the contract, led his troops south and launched an attack on Daxia.
Chu Yunyang fought the enemy with all his might, but due to his poor health, he was killed by Yuwen Zan during the battle.
At this point, all members of the Zhenguo Duke's family were killed in battle, and there were no more capable generals available in the court.
Xiao Cheng'an was extremely worried, but in order to protect the people, he had to fight to the death, and even led the army himself to boost morale.
But nothing helped.
The damage caused by the late emperor to the government and military affairs is irreparable.
Xiao Cheng'an was just a mediocre emperor. He could only compensate the people with his kindness, but he could not make up for the damage done by the previous emperor.
Yuwen Zan marched southward with unstoppable force.
With the Northern Zhou army at the gates of the city, Xiao Cheng'an sat alone in his bedroom, thinking all night.
The next morning, the sky was just getting light.
Xiao Cheng'an changed into plain white linen clothes, let his hair down and went barefoot, took out the jade pendant that Yuwen Zan had given him, held the letter of surrender in both hands, and left the palace alone.
He was willing to surrender, and only hoped that Yuwen Zan would spare the people of Daxia because he had once saved his life.
Outside the tent, tall and strong generals stood on both sides, looking at Xiao Chengan with unfriendly eyes.
Yuwen Zan hadn't come out yet, Xiao Cheng'an lowered his head and waited quietly.
I don't know how long it was before a sound came from the tent.
Yuwen Zan asked, "Little Chen, who is your former master outside?"
"Yes." A contrived voice came, "I used to serve in Changqiu Palace. His Majesty had a bad temper and often beat and scolded us. When I was in the palace, I felt sorry for His Majesty because he didn't have enough food to eat, didn't have warm clothes, and was bullied. I wanted to give my things to His Majesty, but he wouldn't let me. I could only give some secretly and put them in His Majesty's room."
"Later, I followed him to go hunting. In the hunting grounds, we saw someone bullying His Majesty. I asked him to help, but he refused. I had no choice but to go forward alone and carry His Majesty back. It was raining heavily at the time. After we got back, he thought I had saved the hostage and beat me with ten sticks. He also said... and said..."
Yuwen Zan asked: "What else?"
"You also said that Your Majesty is just a hostage, a lowly person. It is a blessing for Your Majesty if he is starved to death or beaten to death."
Xiao Cheng'an raised his head suddenly when he heard the familiar voice.
That's Chen Xun!
What is he talking about? Why is he here?
Before Xiao Cheng'an could react, Yuwen Zan rushed out of the tent and kicked Xiao Cheng'an in the heart, knocking him to the ground.
With a "bang", Xiao Cheng'an fell to the ground and vomited blood.
He struggled and tried to get up from the ground, but Yuwen Zan stepped on his chest.
In the tent, Chen Xun clapped his hands and said with a grin, "Good, good fight, your majesty is mighty."
Xiao Chengan lay on the ground, trying to explain: "It's not like that, Yuwen Zan, I brought you food and drink, I saved you, Chen Xun lied...he..."
Yuwen Zan didn't listen to his explanation and stepped hard on his chest again: "Shut up, do you think I've known you for the first time? Little Chen is kind-hearted, who do you think you are?"
Xiao Cheng'an vomited blood again, struggled hard, hugged Yuwen Zan's feet, tried to push his feet away, and wanted to take out the jade pendant.
But Yuwen Zan didn't give him this opportunity at all.
He said: "Go back to the city and stay with your useless ministers. I want to conquer Daxia in an upright manner!"
After saying this, Yuwen Zan turned around and went back to the tent.
Chen Xun stepped forward, pinching his nose with one hand, and reached into Xiao Cheng'an's arms with the other hand, took the jade pendant, and gave him a smug smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty, please remember that it was me who saved Yuwen Zan, ok?"
Xiao Chengan spit out blood while hugging his legs: "It's mine... The jade pendant is mine... Yuwen Zan, I saved you, you promised me..."
Chen Xun shouted, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, save me!"
Yuwen Zan rushed out again and kicked Xiao Chengan away: "Get lost! Bitch, you still want to bully Xiao Chenzi!"
Xiao Chengan fell to the ground and looked up at the cloudy sky, which was full of blood.
He suddenly regretted saving Yuwen Zan.
Xiao Cheng'an took a break for a while, and after regaining a little strength, he got up from the ground, holding the letter of surrender in both hands and lying on the ground.
"I know that I have committed serious sins. I am willing to surrender. I only ask Your Majesty to spare the people of Daxia. I am willing to work like a cow or a horse to pay for my sins."
Yuwen Zan wanted to have him driven away, but Chen Xun said it was interesting and he wanted to see how long he could hold on.
So Xiao Cheng'an knelt in front of the tent for a day and a night.
He thought of Eunuch Cheng who was very kind to him in the palace, the elderly Censor Chen in the court, and the old man selling pear blossom cream in the city.
If saving Yuwen Zan was a mistake, then he should bear the responsibility. Finally, in the early morning, Yuwen Zan woke up and walked out of the tent.
Xiao Cheng'an fell to the ground, and said weakly, "Your Majesty, please spare the people of Daxia..."
Yuwen Zan pinched his chin and asked him to raise his head: "If you come and be my dog, I will let the people go."
"Yes." Xiao Cheng'an bowed without hesitation.
Yuwen Zan's expression relaxed, but he quickly said, "Let's hear a woof."
Xiao Cheng'an saved all the people of Da Xia at the cost of his own life.
He became a dog of Yuwen Zan.
Yuwen Zan returned to the capital, riding on a horse with Chen Xun in his arms, while Xiao Cheng'an ran behind him with his hands tied.
Yuwen Zan called him "Xiao Nu", made him hold a fruit as a target, and made him lie on the ground and bark like a dog, just like what those young masters of Daxia did to him in the past.
But for some reason, the more obedient Xiao Cheng'an was, the more Yuwen Zan disliked him.
"Didn't you act bossy and shout at others to kill you in Xia Country? Why? Have you learned to act pitiful now?"
Whenever he retorted, "I didn't," Yuwen Zan would ask Chen Xun to come over and whip him.
Yuwen Zan even made him kneel outside Chen Xun's room to serve him every night, and when they were done, he would bring him hot water and make the bed.
The torture day after day made Xiao Cheng'an lose weight rapidly.
He was so light that even his clothes couldn't hold on to him, as if a gust of wind would blow him away.
He was afraid that after his death, Yuwen Zan would attack the people of Daxia. He had not yet thought of a foolproof plan, so he did not dare to die.
Until that evening, Yuwen Zan held a banquet in the army.
Xiao Cheng'an was pulled out of the stable and taken to take a bath.
The attendant said impatiently: "The soldiers in the army have worked hard. His Majesty has issued an order to give you to them as a reward. You must cheer up and don't die in a short while. That would be a big disappointment."
give……
Xiao Chengan understood.
Not only him, but everyone knows what kind of "gift" it is.
His death is today.
Xiao Cheng'an remained silent, allowing the servants to play with him, bathing him, powdering him, and dressing him in bright and gorgeous clothes.
He was brought to the banquet by a group of attendants, and a group of soldiers were waiting for him to come.
"Is this the Emperor of Xia? He looks just like that." "He was killed in one stroke like a little chicken. How can we have fun with him?"
Xiao Cheng'an was brought before Yuwen Zan and pressed to the ground and kowtowed.
Yuwen Zan hugged Chen Xun and said calmly: "I have issued an order to reward you to the soldiers in the army. From today on, you are not only my dog, you are the dog of all the soldiers in the barracks."
Chen Xun fed Yuwen Zan a grape and snuggled into his arms with a smile: "Xiao Nu, thank you quickly."
Yuwen Zan let go of Chen Xun, leaned forward slightly, and looked at Xiao Chengan: "If you beg for mercy, I may be able to spare your life."
But Xiao Cheng'an did not beg for mercy.
He gathered his clothes and kowtowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
There was a crack in Yuwen Zan's expression, and he said more seriously: "Xiao Cheng'an, if you beg for mercy now, I can let you go."
Xiao Cheng'an didn't react, but just repeated, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yuwen Zan stood up and said sternly: "I will give you one last chance, and you beg for mercy now."
Xiao Chengan still said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Take him away..." Yuwen Zan was annoyed. He waved his hand and paused halfway through his words, "Here! Play with him until he dies!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The soldiers and generals at the banquet hurriedly thanked him, then surrounded Xiao Cheng'an and dragged him away like a dead dog.
Nearly a hundred soldiers formed a circle around Xiao Cheng'an, hurriedly unloading their weapons, unbuckling their belts, and preparing to get to work.
Yuwen Zan sat in his seat, looking at this side fiercely.
The next second, Xiao Cheng'an suddenly jumped up from the ground, and with a "crash", he pulled out the sword from a soldier's waist, and used all his strength to chop down the soldier closest to him.
Yuwen Zan stood up and roared: "Xiao Chengan, you are so bold!"
Xiao Cheng'an chopped down two soldiers, raised his bloody sword, and placed it across his neck with a determined look.
For the first time, he looked at Yuwen Zan without fear and whispered, "'Please, save me, and give me a reward.'"
This was the first sentence Yuwen Zan said to him when he rescued him.
Yuwen Zan's face changed drastically, and he said sternly: "Nonsense! Come, throw him into the barracks and play with him until he dies!"
Then the first sentence, the third sentence——
"'You leave me here.'"
"'I am a prairie man.'"
Yuwen Zan was struck by lightning. He stood there in a daze and unconsciously took a step back.
"'What is your name? Where do you work?'"
Xiao Cheng'an replied: "I am the young Chengzi of Changqiu Palace. It's the 'Cheng' in 'Xiao Cheng'an', not the 'Chen' in 'Chen Xun'."
Chen Xun panicked, his legs went limp, and he knelt down at Yuwen Zan's feet, pulling at his clothes. "Your Majesty, don't listen to his nonsense, this is not true. I saved Your Majesty. Your Majesty has already sent people to investigate. I am the only one with the last name Chen in the entire Changqiu Palace. I am 'Little Chenzi'!"
Yuwen Zan ignored him and just stared at Xiao Chengan.
Xiao Cheng'an looked at Yuwen Zan seriously: "Yuwen Zan, I saved you. I gave you food and water, and I helped you drive away those who bullied you. I tore off my sleeve to bandage your wound. I can't ride a horse, and I don't have a horse, so I carried you back."
"You promised me that you would repay me. I will give you my life back, and I only want you to promise me one thing—"
"Don't harm the lives of my people."
After saying this, Xiao Cheng'an swung his sword without hesitation.
The sharp blade cut his neck and blood gushed out.
Xiao Chengan fell to the ground with his head turned to the side.
Yes, he did it on purpose.
I deliberately kept the matter hidden until now.
He was stupid and had not read much, so this was the only way he could think of to protect his people.
The people of the grassland are so superstitious and hate ingratitude the most.
He was Yuwen Zan's savior, and Yuwen Zan killed his savior with his own hands, leaving him no chance to make amends. It was reasonable for Yuwen Zan to agree to his request.
Before leaving, he heard Yuwen Zan's beast-like roar and closed his eyes with peace of mind.
His last thought was, Chu Yunyang, you see, you were right to support me to take the position, and I also protected the people of Daxia.
In the first year of Tianqing in Northern Zhou Dynasty, Xiao Cheng'an, the deposed emperor of Southern Xia, was taken into Northern Zhou as a slave.
In the third year of Tianqing, Yuwen Zan's hair turned white overnight, he killed Chen Xun and massacred the military camp.
