Chapter 190 - The Death of Nangong Mo with a Monarch's Heart
With a "Bang — —", Hong Zhong stomped her foot onto Nangong Mo's chest. This time, she used her inner force! Thus, Nangong Mo could clearly feel that two of his ribs had been broken by someone else.
"Let me tell you, I, Hong Zhong, am not a gentleman, so I do not care about winning or losing, I will use any means possible to make the Nan Gong Family pay with blood!" As Hong Zhong spoke, he ruthlessly ground his teeth a few more times before his expression turned dark and fierce, "Nangong Mo, do you want to tell me that after today, your sister will be the Queen of Southern Qi and your big brother will be the commander of the cavalry? Do you think that just because you have this kind of background, I will let you off? "Speaking of which, after your sister was sealed, I didn't even prepare a wedding gift for her. I think she will definitely like using your head as a wedding gift!"
"Madman, you madman, I will kill you!" Nangong Mo said, he wanted to grab the sword that was not too far away and cut towards Hong Zhong, but before he could even touch the sword, he felt a white light flash past his eyes, and immediately blood shot out, and the arm that was extended out, had already been cut off.
Lv Luo raised her arm, and retracted the dagger, as she coldly looked at Nangong Mo.
Qingya was her good sister, avenging her wasn't only Miss's wish!
Due to being injured by the snake, Nangong Mo was no longer able to move. He also saw his own arm being chopped off, and while he was still unwilling to be slaughtered by Hong Zhong, a state of madness had already appeared. He shouted at Hong Zhong: "Hong Zhong, you madman, just you wait, my father will not let you go.
Hong Zhong laughed coldly as she looked at Nangong Mo's crazed face. She had really overestimated this top scorer, and now that it had just started, she couldn't take it anymore?
Lowering his head, his ice-cold gaze looked at Nangong Mo's face which was about to collapse at any moment, and slowly said: "Don't worry, they will be gone very soon, you still don't know, right? On the second day you were locked up in the prison, Nangong Yu had to pay for the food. Now that he had been stripped of his duties, the hundred thousand men and horses that your Nan Gong Family was so proud of are all gone! I still have to tell you, I was the one who sent Nangong Yu's relief money! "
Nangong Mo was already in pain from losing an arm, he was so angry he couldn't think of anything, his eyes turned blood-red as he stared at Hong Zhong, "Hong Zhong, my aunt is the empress dowager, my sister is the empress, they won't let you go!"
Hong Zhong nodded her head earnestly: "Mm, you did remind me that they indeed never thought of letting me go, so in order to protect themselves, I can only send them to hell! You go first, they'll be coming soon to accompany you! " As she said that, a hand grabbed onto Nangong Mo's neck, causing his face to turn purple.
"Hong Zhong, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!" Before Nangong Mo took his last breath, he opened his mouth intermittently.
Hong Zhong laughed coldly: "Alright, I'll be waiting for you. It's best if your entire Nan Gong Family becomes a fierce ghost and comes looking for me, I'll definitely beat you until you never, no, surpass you!"
As Hong Zhong's voice fell, Nangong Mo unwillingly exhaled a last breath, and then drooped down powerlessly.
"Bring his corpse to Nangong Yu's side, and keep the severed arm as a congratulatory gift for us, the Empress!"
After doing all of this, Hong Zhong touched the porcelain bottle on her waist that contained the elegant ashes, and looked up at the sky. The elegant, I will have the people of the Nan Gong Family accompany you soon.
Did you see that?
… ….
Yuyang Barracks
Nangong Yu was currently worrying about Baili Yi Chen's decree, which had already been sent to the army camp a few days ago. However, his father had sent a message to him not to be impatient, saying that it was already a foregone conclusion for Nangong Yimeng after the seal had been placed on him. He did not need to return to the capital to report for the time being, and would only make a decision after the seal was over in the main hall.
As a result, he kept dragging things out until they reached the capital.
As he was trying to figure out his father's thoughts, he heard a soldier run in quickly and whisper to him. The soldier's face changed drastically as he ran out.
Not long after, he saw the corpse of the person that was thrown into the wasteland near the military camp.
There were many soldiers surrounding him as they whispered, "Isn't he the commander's second brother? Wasn't he sentenced to death for Hua Kui's murder in the brothel? How could he be here?"
"That's right. Look at his broken ribs and his severed arm. How much hatred is there for him!"
"If I die, I die. I can't believe I can't get a complete corpse. What a sinner!"
Nangong Yu stepped forward in disbelief, and when he suddenly saw Nangong Mo's face, he staggered and almost fell down. Didn't father say that he would think of a way to replace his second brother and send him away?
How could Second Brother become like this!
The guards by his side immediately stepped forward and supported him: "Commander."
Nangong Yu would come to his senses very soon, "You bastards, what are you guys still looking at? Hurry up and bring my second brother back!"
A few soldiers came and carried Nangong Mo's body away. The anger in his heart overflowed to the heavens, causing him to be unable to think properly. He coldly ordered: "Men, count the number of people, immediately head out with this commander."
This matter must have been done by that bitch Hong Zhong. He had to kill her way back and take revenge for her second brother!
Seeing that, the Vice Commander under Nangong Yu knew that Nangong Yu was planning to bring his men into the capital. He immediately stepped forward and advised: "Leader, this matter is not allowed!" The court generals bringing their troops to the capital without permission were a capital offense!
"Why not!" At this time, Nangong Yu was so angry that his head was spinning around, there was no need to worry anymore, even his second brother was hurt like that, it was hard to say whether his father was also harmed!
No matter what, he could not let the Red House people's evil scheme succeed!
Thus, ignoring the Vice Commander's obstructions, he brought his subordinate troops and horses and quickly left the Yuyang.
The Vice Commander looked at Nangong Yu's back figure and sighed lightly. This Prime Minister had ordered his Young Master to stay calm and stay calm for a while, and now that he was so impulsive, he was probably up to no good!
He quickly turned around, wanting to send a secret message to Nangong Jue, but after turning around, he immediately stopped, and did not dare make the slightest movement. A black-clothed man holding a long sword was pointing it at his throat, and before he could even make a sound, the black-clothed man raised his arm, and a bloody light floated past.
The vice commander instantly had his head drop to the ground.
… ….
Night. The moon hung high in the sky.
Tonight was the Empress's wedding night. The red silk and palace lanterns all around exuded a joyous color, creating a peaceful palace.
Hong Zhong sat in the courtyard of the Xiwu Hall, pouring wine while looking at the bright moon in the sky, quietly waiting for the person to come.
She knew that after the Empress' wedding, Nangong Lingwei would not give her the chance to see Baili Yi Chen again. Perhaps, she would never be able to come to Xiwu Hall again.
For the matter of the Red War and Bei Chenyue, she had no choice but to grab this opportunity tonight.
Since Baili Yi Chen had become the imperial concubine, and all the officials of the civil and military forces had come to celebrate, Hong Zhong had anticipated that he would come later, so Hong Zhong went to the Xiwu Hall first and prepared some small dishes to wait for him.
Not long after he arrived, he heard steady footsteps. Was it him?
When he saw that Hong Zhong had arrived first, he pulled out a wisp of a smile and quickly walked to the opposite side of Hong Zhong and sat down.
"No, I just arrived too." Hong Zhong said, he then picked up the wine pot on the table, and poured a cup of wine into the wine cup in front of him, "On the other hand, why are you here so early?
"Hehe …" Baili Yi Chen chuckled and said, "A hundred officials of the civil and military ranks, how could they possibly win against your invitation?"
Hong Zhong was startled for a moment, then laughed: "Speaking of which, today is your wedding day, I have not congratulated you yet, let's drink."
Baili Yi Chen's heart trembled slightly. He picked up the wine cup on the table and downed it in one gulp. "I didn't expect you to invite me. It can't be that you've stirred up some trouble and want me to open up again, right?"
was startled, well, in the past when she was good to him, she would always try to please him after getting into trouble, so this time he did not think it was his fault, instead he raised his wine cup in a good mood and pecked at it: "I did indeed look for you for a reason, but this time it wasn't me who caused the trouble."
"Go ahead." As Baili Yi Chen spoke, he picked up the wine jug and poured wine for himself.
Hong Zhong put down her wine cup: "Do you still remember that day at Esteemed Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, you promised me a request, saying that you could give me a woman?"
"I remember." Baili Yi Chen nodded.
Strictly speaking, I remember every word you said!
Hong Zhong looked seriously at Baili Yi Chen, "Then can Your Majesty keep your promise right now?"
Baili Yi Chen looked at Hong Zhong, and his eyes flashed with a dark light. It turned out that the reason she was looking for him wasn't because she couldn't bear to part with him, but because of that request. Finally, he nodded and asked, "Who do you want?" With that said, he had tacitly agreed to Hong Zhong's request.
"Yue Guifei." Bei Chenyue, along with Xi Xiangxue, were given the title of first rank Imperial Consort. From today onwards, she would be Baili Yi Chen's Yue Guifei. I know that it's indeed a bit excessive to make such a request now, but my second brother has already admired Miss Beichen for a long time, that's why I … I beg you to grant me your wish. "
Actually, this was Hong Zhong's fault. After all, she should have brought up this matter with Baili Yi Chen after entering the Empress Dowager's birthday feast.
But that night, the incident of the Empress Dowager's birthday feast burning the cold palace happened.
After that, the sealed memories in his mind recovered, as did his elegance.
That matter had indeed dealt a great blow to Hong Zhong, to the point that, after she had recovered, the only thing she had in her heart was that if she were to take revenge for Qingya, she would have forgotten about the battle between Bei Chenyue and Hong Zhan.
It wasn't until she heard the news that Bei Chenyue had been conferred the title of Yue Guifei that she remembered. However, it was already too late. Thus, she could only personally come to Baili Yi Chen and beg him to give her a chance.
Completion?
He had done it for her, but who would do it for him?
As a subject, he still had the qualification to plead with Yun Che to fulfill his request. However, as the ruler of a nation, as the most respected person in the entire Southern Qi, he didn't have the qualifications to ask Yun Che to fulfill his request!
However, Bei Chenyue has already been conferred with the title of imperial concubine of the first rank, and her name has also entered the royal jade butterfly. Not only will it take a few days, it will also take a lot of effort, and I have a request.
"Tell me, as long as you don't cross my bottom line, everything is fine!" Although he knew that Baili Yi Chen would keep his word, he never would have thought that he would be so straightforward.
Hearing that, Baili Yi Chen smiled, then stretched out his hand to pick up a wine jug. He poured the two of them a full cup of wine and said, "Accompany me tonight to drink. We won't return until we're drunk!" After that, he raised his wine cup and looked at Hong Zhong with a smile.
Using a woman he didn't love to exchange one night for her was worth it!
Hong Zhong was startled. Tonight, it should be his wedding night, even if she was not sleeping with the empress, she should still take good care of her second wife.
She originally wanted to open her mouth to persuade him, but after seeing the resolution in Baili Yi Chen's eyes, she looked at him and smiled. Then, she raised her wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. "Alright, we won't leave unless we're drunk!"
Since he didn't want to go, why should she force him?
Just like this, the two of them drank together.
Drinking while chatting and laughing, from poems and songs to the customs and sentiments of the people, from the wind and the snow to the philosophy of life …
"Do you remember? "About a month ago, you wanted to kill me, but now we can do this, treat Yue Dangge like a confidant."
"Hehe …" When he recalled the situation when he first met Hong Zhong a month ago, Baili Yi Chen couldn't help but smile faintly.
At that time, he never would have thought that he would actually follow Hong Zhong to snatch the latrine. Thinking back to that time, in his eyes, Hong Zhong was simply an unreasonable woman.
However, he also did not expect that a month later, he would be unable to extricate himself from the love he had for that unfathomable woman. If he had known that this would happen, that he would treat her a little better, would she be the one to marry him today?
The moon was high in the sky, and it was nearing the time for his son to die.
Within the Changle Palace's bridal room, Nangong Yimeng, dressed in a noble and noble phoenix robe, quietly sat on top of the phoenix collapse.
She knew that he didn't like her, and she also knew that he had married her because of the pressure from the empress dowager and the Nan Gong Family. She also knew that he had married her to ensure Hong Zhong's safety.
However, she never would have thought that the man she had loved for more than ten years, the man who had grown up with her, would actually ignore her face and, on the day of his bestowment, grant her another dozen wives. On their wedding night, she would be left alone in her room!
Hate, unwillingness!
This was all the emotion in Nangong Yimeng's heart right now.
"Empress, it's too late." Xiao Gongnv of the Changle Palace stepped forward and reminded him.
Nangong Yimeng paused for a moment, and then forced out a smile: "I understand now, where is the emperor? Did he send someone to look for him?" The ruler of a nation had actually disappeared in the banquet after the grand ceremony.
Xiao Gongnv lowered her head, "Reporting to Empress, I heard from Eunuch Xiao Shunzi that Your Majesty is in Xiwu Hall."
Xiwu Hall!
It was the place Hong Zhong used to live!
After hearing the answer, Nangong Yimeng was even more furious. Why did she still not forget about that woman even though she had already given her more than ten concubines?
