Chapter 50: A heart-wrenching love story
Huo Jingzhou also made a mistake, and then said, "I found it. The grass on the grave is already three feet high."
Lu Jiuyuan looked up at him and asked, "Is it really three meters high?"
Dabao, are you kidding?
Huo Jingzhou nodded: "Yes, the grass on the grave is three feet high, and the bones have been dug out."
He was recently sent by the prince to investigate what happened to Bai Taotao in the past five years.
Lu Jiuyuan frowned and asked, "Who is it?"
Huo Jingzhou: "After searching, we found that the body belonged to a hunter, and he was quite burly..."
Lu Jiuyuan interrupted coldly: "How is the investigation going in the northern border?"
This topic has changed so quickly?
Huo Jingzhou quickly got down to business: "The war in the northern border is a bit strange. General Wen is not sick and is deliberately dragging it out. Also..."
He paused and didn't continue.
Lu Jiuyuan looked up at him coldly, his voice as cold as a blade: "Speak!"
Huo Jingzhou said in a deep voice: "I seem to...see Shi Cheng!"
Lu Jiuyuan's voice suddenly turned cold: "Shi Cheng? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"
Shi Cheng was the deputy general who fought desperately to break out of the siege and send him back to Beijing five years ago!
Shi Cheng sent him to the outskirts of Beijing, but he couldn't hold on any longer and died!
Lu Jiuyuan had seen Shi Cheng's body. His body was riddled with arrows and half of his face was covered in blood. Only the other half of his face could clearly show his appearance.
It can be said that Shi Cheng used his last breath to send him to the suburbs.
But how could someone who died five years ago still be alive?
Huo Jingzhou didn't dare to guarantee it: "I'm not sure, it's too far away. I just took a quick glance and it looks very similar."
Huo Jingzhou was deeply impressed by Shi Cheng's death.
They were all very grateful to Shi Cheng. If he hadn't risked his life to send Lu Jiuyuan back to the outskirts of Beijing, they would have had to collect his body.
When he saw Shi Cheng's body, he was shocked and deeply impressed.
The study became quiet and the atmosphere was a little depressing.
After a while, Huo Jingzhou asked cautiously, "Prince, do you want to investigate what happened five years ago?"
In fact, they all felt that the ambush five years ago and the opening of the city gate were too strange.
But the prince didn't want to investigate, because to him, whether the world was in chaos or not was none of his business.
Lu Jiuyuan looked up and gave him a cold look.
Huo Jingzhou quickly lowered his head: "Then..."
"Check it out."
These two simple and cold words made Huo Jingzhou look up suddenly and look at Lu Jiuyuan in disbelief.
"What did you say?"
Lu Jiuyuan: "Did you become deaf after going out for a while?"
Huo Jingzhou quickly said, "I heard it. I'll send someone to the Northern Frontier to investigate!"
After five years, the prince is finally willing to take this step. He is no longer world-weary, and no longer gives up on himself!
Huo Jingzhou asked happily, "Why did the prince suddenly change his mind?"
They all had other plans.
Lu Jiuyuan lowered his head and casually placed the white piece on the chessboard.
In his mind was Bai Taotao's serious little face and her bright eyes full of firm trust.
She told him: "No, Lu Jiuyuan is not a cowardly young man."
"He is the war god prince of Dayang State, he is the face of Dayang State, he is the Optimus Prime of Dayang State!"
"So, Lu Jiuyuan would rather die than open the city gates. He will fight to the bitter end!"
Her words, her trust, her eyes were like a fire in the dark night, like... the moment when the little seedling in my heart was about to grow wildly.
Lu Jiuyuan suddenly threw the white piece in his hand: "White Peach Peach!"
With a whoosh.
The white piece cut through the void like a sharp blade and broke through the window.
Bai Taotao was leaning on the window and peeking when a hidden weapon flew towards her. She quickly pinched the white piece between her two fingers.
She put her eyes close to the hole and said, "Your Highness, fighting and killing is not conducive to the relationship between husband and wife."
Huo Jingzhou looked towards the window and saw a pair of big eyes: ...
Lu Jiuyuan's forehead twitched, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Get in!"
Damn woman, eavesdropping outside!
Bai Taotao happily entered the study, but because there were outsiders present, she still walked very gracefully.
Lu Jiuyuan looked at Bai Taotao who walked in normally, and his expression looked slightly better.
Very good, he didn’t walk in with a frivolous gait.
Otherwise, he would break her legs!
Huo Jingzhou finally saw the Crown Princess who married in with her baby.
She was wearing a light green dress, and perhaps her hair was not dry yet, so her waist-length black hair was scattered on her back.
She pushed the door open and walked in. The night wind blew up the hem of her skirt, and her black hair made her look as beautiful as heaven...
Bai Taotao: "The world is so beautiful, yet Your Highness is so irritable. This is not good."
Huo Jingzhou: ...
He should just swallow Xian back, as the Crown Princess doesn’t seem to be suitable.
Lu Jiuyuan:!!!
You damn woman, you deserve a beating!
Huo Jingzhou stood up and saluted: "Huo Jingzhou pays homage to the Crown Princess."
Bai Taotao looked at Huo Jingzhou, who was dressed in a tight black brocade robe, with a cold and hard face, a tall and graceful figure, and an air of righteousness.
"You are Huo Jingzhou."
Huo Jingzhou was puzzled: "The Crown Princess knows me?"
Bai Taotao nodded: "I know, he is your highness's personal bodyguard and the captain of the Jinlin Guard."
The official position is very high, and he will be the head of Jinlin Guard in the future.
Of course, what impressed Bai Taotao most was that Huo Jingzhou in the book died for love with Lu Jiuyuan.
Many years later in the book, Huo Jingzhou died in the battle of Lingcheng.
He was wearing armor and carrying Lu Jiuyuan's spirit tablet in his arms. He led his troops to fight in Lingcheng and finally recaptured Lingcheng.
Although the city was recaptured, Huo Jingzhou drank a cup of poisoned wine.
Before his death, Huo Jingzhou still held Lu Jiuyuan's spirit tablet in his arms, smiled, and left the last words of his life.
"Your Highness, I have recaptured Lingcheng for you. I have done you no wrong. Please take your time on the Yellow Springs Road, crossing the Naihe Bridge. I am here to accompany you."
Just like that, Huo Jingzhou committed suicide by drinking a cup of poisoned wine for his love with Lu Jiuyuan.
At that time, Bai Taotao was moved to tears. Men these days are so infatuated.
Bai Taotao looked at Huo Jingzhou, still immersed in the original storyline, and shook her head repeatedly: "What a pity."
Huo Jingzhou: ???
The way the Crown Princess looked at him was a little strange?
When Lu Jiuyuan saw Bai Taotao staring at Huo Jingzhou, he shook his head with shining eyes and said, "What a pity?"
What a pity?
What a pity that she has married him, the disabled prince?
It’s a pity that she can’t flirt with Huo Jingzhou anymore?
Lu Jiuyuan said with a stern face: "Azhou, go back and rest first, come back tomorrow."
Huo Jingzhou felt uneasy when the Crown Princess looked at him, and he quickly bowed: "Then I'll go back first."
Bai Taotao followed Huo Jingzhou's gaze, then raised her little fist to cheer him on.
"Master Huo, you must see through worldly views, do not be bound by them, and bravely pursue true love, even if that true love has already led to marriage."
Pursue His Royal Highness the Crown Prince well.
Maybe His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just likes men?
Huo Jingzhou felt that the Crown Prince was going to kill someone, so he quickly slipped away.
Bai Taotao waved her little fist at Huo Jingzhou: "Master Huo, you must come every day."
If you come here every day, you can pursue His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
As for her?
She is just a decorative princess, just a mascot.
Lu Jiuyuan saw Bai Taotao's gaze following Huo Jingzhou for so long, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Bai Taotao!"
Bai Taotao came back to her senses and asked with bright eyes, "Your Highness, are you jealous?"
Are you jealous of her?
Or are you jealous of Huo Jingzhou?
Eh, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems quite gay?
