Chapter 684: I Want to Guard the Imperial Mausoleum!
"Do you remember what I said to you when I took you and your son back to the northwest?" Wei Dongzhu was not shaken at all by Qiao Niang's crying.
He still spoke in a cold tone: "At that time, I told you not to have any extravagant expectations of me. If you stay, you can only be a slave. Did I ever tell you this?"
Qiao Niang began to get nervous. At that time, she firmly believed that a drop of water could wear away a stone. As long as she stayed by the general's side and asked about his well-being every day, the general would see her.
I didn't expect that after so many years, the general still remembered what he said at that time.
Is he an ice cube that can never be warmed up?
Seeing that Qiao Niang was silent, Wei Dongzhu continued to ask, "Besides poisoning, what else did you do? If you explain clearly now, perhaps you and Wei Yan can still save your life."
Qiao Niang had already made up her mind to die, but she didn't expect that her son would be implicated.
"I did it all. Yan'er has nothing to do with it. General, go and tell His Majesty that if she wants to kill someone, just kill me and don't hurt our son."
Qiao Niang knelt on the ground and begged, crying in fear.
Wei Dongzhu: "It's too late. You don't know His Majesty's temper, but I do. It's fine if she doesn't offend His Majesty. If she does, she will definitely kill her off completely."
Just like the Shen family, like Old Madam Shen, like the Queen Mother.
"Your Majesty has experienced countless assassinations since he took office. Why do you think that a packet of poison can take His Majesty's life?"
"What do you want your Majesty's life for? Do you want the world to be in chaos?"
Even though Wei Dongzhu knew that His Majesty was unfathomable and would not be easily hurt, Qiao Niang still made him angry.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty was poisoned as soon as he arrived, and the person who poisoned him was someone in his house.
Whenever Wei Dongzhu thought of her, he felt ashamed to see her again.
"No, I don't want the world to be in chaos. That person said that as long as your majesty dies, a benevolent king will ascend the throne, and the general will no longer care about her and will accept me."
At this moment, Qiao Niang realized very clearly that she was dreaming.
Why didn’t you let her understand earlier that she has wasted her whole life? I really don’t want to let her go now.
"Who is that person? What else did he say to you?" Wei Dongzhu had a bad feeling.
Qiao Niang didn't dare to say it.
Wei Dongzhu immediately scolded: "Do you want Wei Yan to die?"
She is Wei Yan's mother, how could she want him to die?
"That man also asked me what His Majesty was going to do?"
Wei Dongzhuxin is already dead, but I didn't expect such a big mistake to happen around him.
He is sorry to His Majesty.
"What did you say? If you want to save Wei Yan's life, just say it now."
Qiaoniang was scared. She remembered that before she returned to the northwest, she often heard people say that His Majesty did not recognize his relatives. Wei Dongzhu was deeply in love with His Majesty. Even if His Majesty really wanted Wei Yan's life, he would definitely give it to him.
She quickly told him everything about her contact with that person, how she passed the message, and what information she had given him.
When Wei Dongzhu heard about the fire attack, he was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead.
"Have you forgotten how Wei Jiajun died?"
"How dare you collaborate with the enemy?"
The roaring rebuke woke up Wei Yan who was recuperating from his injuries.
It was the father who was scolding the mother. Why was the father scolding the mother?
When he finally struggled to get through, he heard his father giving orders.
"Take her to the military camp and charge her with being a spy!"
Wei Yan's face turned pale and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He ignored the injury on his back, staggered over, and knelt on the ground to plead for his mother.
"Father, how could mother be a spy? Please forgive mother!"
Wei Dongzhu's face turned pale as he asked, "Did you tell her about the fire attack? Do you know what she did? She leaked the news of the fire attack. The only people who could find her at this time could be the Xiongnu."
"She disregarded the lives of soldiers and civilians. Isn't this enough to warrant military punishment?"
Wei Yan looked at his mother in disbelief and asked tremblingly, "Mother, is what father said true?"
Qiao Niang didn't even dare to look up at her son.
When Wei Yan saw his mother like this, he understood everything.
"Mother, how could you be so confused!"
He was taught to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic since he was young, and he regarded his father and the Wei family army as role models. He did not expect that in the end, the news would be leaked to foreign tribes through his mouth.
Wei Dongzhu glanced at him and said coldly, "Take him away!"
Wei Yan staggered after him, but was stopped by soldiers.
Qiao Niang shouted at the top of her lungs: "Yan'er, mother was wrong, don't hate me, from the beginning to the end, it was mother's fault..."
The voice gradually faded away, and Wei Yan burst into tears.
Why did such a good family become like this?
It’s all because of Shen Lanxi. If she hadn’t come, my mother wouldn’t have been forced into this.
What Wei Dongzhu hated most in his life was spies. After dealing with Qiao Niang in front of the officers and soldiers, he immediately went to report the matter to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, the news of the fire attack has leaked out."
Shen Lanxi already knew about Qiao Niang's punishment.
"I will gather the soldiers and discuss countermeasures."
Wei Dongzhu knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I am guilty. I beg Your Majesty to grant me death."
Shen Lanxi: "What is your crime?"
Wei Dongzhu: "I shouldn't have indulged my family and allowed them to do such a treasonous thing.
Shen Lanxi sighed helplessly.
"Stand up. I know you are loyal to the emperor and love your country. Now you are putting justice above your own family. How can I punish you?"
Wei Dongzhu felt even more ashamed to face it.
"Your Majesty, I want to atone for my sins. I beg Your Majesty to grant me one request after I kill the Xiongnu."
Shen Lanxi: "What request?"
Wei Dongzhu knelt on the ground respectfully.
"I want to guard the imperial mausoleum."
Shen Lanxi looked at the person who could not let go and sighed: "Why are you doing this?"
"Your Majesty, please grant my request. I will gladly accept it!"
Since ancient times, those who guard the imperial mausoleum would be buried near the mausoleum after their death. A hundred years after Your Majesty has passed, he will still be able to follow Your Majesty.
"Okay, as you wish!"
The fire attack that the Huns had been waiting for did not come, but instead they got Shen Lanxi leading his troops to attack directly in the heart of their hiding place.
It was like a divine soldier sent from the sky, without any signs beforehand.
By the time they reacted, they were surrounded by the army.
After a night of fighting, blood flowed like a river.
Shen Lanxi has killed 2,300 people and is firmly at the top of the enemy kill list.
With her amazing fighting power, she once again shocked her soldiers and made them surrender. No doubts about her age were left in their minds anymore.
Their Majesty is so strong!
"Your Majesty, I have captured a person who claims to be your sister from the same mother."
A disheveled old woman was thrown to the ground.
Shen Lanxi recognized it as Shen Yuantang at first glance.
But Shen Yuantang did not recognize Shen Lanxi at the first time.
"You are not Shen Lanxi. Shen Lanxi is not as young as you."
Shen Lanxi is older than her, so she should be even older than her.
