The world is so wild, I want to go to Kang Kang

Chapter 165 Female General (21)

Shi Yue originally planned to ask for a horse, hold the man hostage, run for a while and then let him go.

But unexpectedly, the moment the door opened, she saw someone familiar.

"General, please get out quickly. General Gao is waiting outside. I will take care of this for you."

Lao Chang squeezed in and pointed his knife at the guards approaching them.

The opportunity was so rare that she had no time to think.

The door was not opened and only allowed one person to enter or exit.

Shi Yue let go of Yin Hao and was pushed out.

"what--"

What Lao Chang is most proud of is his natural supernatural power.

When he was sure that he had gotten out, he used all his strength to close the gap in the palace door.

"General, Lao Chang knows that he has committed a grave sin. I am sorry for you and my brothers."

Because all his energy was focused on eliminating Shi Yue's worries after his death, and he had no time or energy to use the emperor as his life-saving talisman.

Now that the emperor was out of their control, the guards around him were no longer afraid of him.

They rushed forward one after another.

Several knives were stabbed into his back.

"General, this can be considered as atonement."

He held on to the door handle tightly with both hands and protected himself with his whole body.

He let the pain come until it became numb, and he didn't let go even before he closed his eyes.

Wait until the guards pull him down from the palace gate and reopen it.

There was no trace of Shi Yue outside the door.

Yin Hao looked into the distance, his eyes were heavy. There was blood all over the ground under his feet, the dark red color made people feel gloomy.

"Your Majesty, are you still chasing?"

The captain of the guards stepped forward to ask for instructions.

"Chase?"

He asked, "Can you still catch up?"

They haven't run far yet. If we track them day and night, we will definitely catch up with them.

The captain of the guards subconsciously wanted to answer, but the moment he opened his mouth, an idea came to him.

This is not what the Emperor meant.

Not asking him.

……

Shi Yue never thought that one day he would be able to leave the capital like this.

It seems that people's sadness and pain cannot be felt instantly. In fact, she still hasn't realized this problem.

Lao Chang is dead.

Just a few hours ago, she discovered that he was connected with Wuqi.

But she had no choice, and one thing after another overturned her cognition over the years, and she didn't even have time to express or experience basic emotional reactions.

Therefore, Lao Chang's betrayal just passed by her lips, instead of leaving a deep mark.

So much so that now, his death also caught her off guard.

While running for her life, the wind blew her so hard that she couldn't open her eyes, and her eyes were dry.

So dry that I couldn't shed a tear.

I just knew to run forward faster and faster.

No ideas.

As she rode, she seemed to become one with the horse. Only the wind could bring her more or less pain, but she was unable to feel the sadness that belongs to a human.

She was also pushed and turned into an unconscious monster.

After running for a whole day and night, the two stopped only after they were sure that there were no more pursuers behind them.

The horses were tired, so he tied them to a tree and walked to the small river nearby.

I squatted down and washed my face.

I scooped up a handful of water with both hands and buried my face in it. The water was very shallow, but it seemed to soothe my fatigue from the past few days.

She thought she was washing away the dust.

Only when she saw ripples formed in the water by the water drops dripping from top to bottom did she notice the moisture in her eyes.

As if a string had broken, the raindrops fell one after another onto the clear water surface that reflected her face.

The huge and heavy sadness grabbed her heart like a big hand, and it hurt so much that she couldn't straighten her back.

His legs went limp and he knelt on one knee.

He put his fist against his mouth, trying not to make any sound.

Crying is so cowardly.

She has no right to cry, so why should she cry?

If you regretted it, why were you so determined to run away?

I didn't even turn my head, nor did I hear what he said last.

She supported herself on the ground with her hands. The riverbank was full of gravel, and she held on tightly, and the hard edges hurt the flesh of her palms.

Once again, a force neither too heavy nor too light fell on his shoulder.

This was the only thing Gao Ting could do for her now.

After leaving the prison, he escaped from the rest room under the pretext of taking a shower and changing clothes.

Whatever Shi Yue could discover, he naturally would not miss.

Even if Yinghua died in Dashang, this contradiction was not irreconcilable. However, the emperor's attitude was intriguing, as he did not seem to care about Dongyuan's war, but was eager to try.

Why is that?

If he had not communicated with Shi Yue in advance and knew Lao Chang's special identity in this assassination, perhaps he would not have suspected His Majesty.

Lao Chang, Dagger, Wuqi.

So where do the remaining men in black belong to?

He also had more guesses than facts, and without sufficient evidence, he could do nothing.

What’s more, the person opposite is the ruler of this country.

Who would have thought that Lao Chang actually found him.

Like a master hiding in the dark, observing everyone and everything from a full perspective, this undoubtedly gives you an advantage in this game of chess.

Lao Chang said that he had been following in the dark since the assassination of the princess, and he knew that the two generals were implicated and imprisoned.

I was very worried, so I kept wandering around and didn't leave.

He was also told that His Majesty was the mastermind behind the men in black. This move was to lure the emperor into a trap, and the general might be trapped in the palace.

Before he could ask what was going on, he was stopped by the unusual movement in the palace. Old Chang made a prompt decision and ran to the palace gate, asking him to meet him outside.

The horses were prepared in advance, perhaps because he had a premonition that something would happen, or perhaps it was a secret that Lao Chang had not yet had time to tell.

They escaped miraculously.

"I haven't asked him why he defected to the enemy yet."

After the uncontrollable force passed, he slowly calmed down. He stared blankly at the water surface which had also returned to its calm and clear state, and spoke in a low voice.

This was something she couldn't understand. What kind of hidden secrets could cause such a strong soldier to switch sides in the middle of a battle and join the most despicable enemy of his life?

She wanted to hear his explanation in person.

However, she could only answer this question when she went to the underground world and asked it in person.

"Old Chang is not a spineless person. Money and women can't tempt him, and he is not someone who can be easily persuaded."

Yes, if it’s not bribery, then it’s just coercion.

Without her knowing, the enemies had sneaked in and were doing things right under her nose.

"Gao Ting, I am such a failure."

One by one, everyone around her left her.

The person she loved was the first one she gave up; the person she regarded as her only relative used her, and now she is taking the initiative to distance herself from him; the subordinate she trusted most betrayed her but also died to save her.

The ambitions I once had seemed to have been worn away by this series of misfortunes, leaving only deep fatigue.

Gao Ting walked forward, came to her, knelt on one knee, and put his hand on her shoulder.

"How could you fail?"

"In my life, Gao Ting has always respected my parents and teachers, and been loyal to my country and monarch, but I lack humility."

"But since I met you, I have understood what it means to lose, what it means to admire, and why there are always people better than you."

This time, let him pull her up.

"Shi Yue, you are the mighty General Shi. Why, after just a few obstacles, are you going to admit defeat?"
