Chapter 238: Armor


Nanshu said respectfully: "The concubine body doesn't dare, but for the person who plays the piano, the concubine body is now almost the same as a wasted person, and she really can't afford to be favored by His Royal Highness." ” "This palace said that you can, and there is no second person who can take your place."

He grabbed Nan Shu's wrist and looked at the wound on her ring finger, his voice was neither happy nor angry, "Or do you want to escape from the palace because you broke this finger."

When Nanshu heard this, he immediately committed himself and said, "The concubine doesn't dare." ” "Even if you want to, it's okay."

Nan Xirong changed his attitude from the past and said, "You were originally forcibly left by the palace, and it is normal to want to leave." ” "The concubine body and the concubine body just don't know what the concubine body is in the eyes of His Royal Highness, is it one of the tools and means to achieve the goal of grand hegemony" Nanshu finally mustered up the courage and dared to ask.

Nan Xirong couldn't help but glance at her more, his fingers loosened her chin and her wrists, and said with a cool smile: "If you really think so, after the palace is completed and becomes the hegemony of the world, and you are useless as a tool."

Do you want this palace to let you go?"

Nan Shu was stunned for a moment, with a hint of disbelief and a hint of eagerness, looked at Nan Xirong, and said, "Is Your Highness serious?"

Nan Xirong's eyes narrowed, and he smiled untruthfully, and said, "Naturally, this palace is quite serious when it gets serious.

After the palace defeats the Northern Xia and subdues the large rivers and mountains of the Northern Xia, how about letting you go completely?"

Nanshu can not be said to be unmoved.

You must know that it is simply difficult to say something like giving her freedom from Nan Xirong's mouth.

But I didn't expect to hear him say it with my own ears now.

Nanshu asked hopefully: "Is His Highness really willing to return the concubine to freedom?"

"But before that," Nan Xirong's face suddenly changed, "You must be the pivotal of this palace."

The pivot is unique.

He touched Nanshu's face as if lovingly, and Nanshu felt as if he had been crawled by a snake, and he couldn't help but tremble, but he couldn't dodge it.

Then Nan Xirong spread out his palm, took out a long and curved armor from his sleeve, and helped Nan Shu put it on her broken ring finger, "It's also very beautiful to wear this." ” The beautiful armor is decorated, and you can't tell that the finger has been broken, and you don't have to worry about not being able to play the piano, in short, it looks very noble and beautiful.

If it had been in the past, she would have thought that she would be ecstatic, and there was nothing wrong with being a canary in a cage.

But now, she is not as happy as she imagined before, this beautiful armor is like a lock, on her ring finger, or more like a brand, so that she will not be able to escape the shackles of Nan Xirong for the rest of her life.

Nan Xirong asked: "Do you like this style, if you don't like it, this palace will order someone to create a few more other styles for you, so that the cardinal can wear it every day." ” Nanshu blessed the blessing and said, "Thank Your Highness for the reward, Nanshu likes it very much." ” Nan Xirong got up, walked back to his seat, sat down in a robe, supported his chin with one hand, slowly squinted his eyes, looked comfortable and leisurely, and said: "Then the pivot will wear this armor again and play a Jiangnan minor tune for the palace." ” Nanshu replied "yes", and then plucked his fingers on the strings again, and the fingertips that had been cut by the strings, blood beads overflowed again, and they were painted on the white strings, which made people feel desolate.

The armor on the ring finger made a slightly piercing and sharp sound when the strings were plucked, but it did not affect the continuation of the sound, although it sounded a little like a gorgeous brocade silk had been cut by a sharp weapon.

Nanshu opened his mouth, and then moved his bright and beautiful voice and sang tactfully.

Although the sound of the piano is a little damaged, but in the end, it is the Oiran who once moved to Beijing, she sang the tune, and the song immediately became softer, as if it was really the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and the tenderness was like water.

Nan Xirong closed his eyes, his fingers tapped on the edge of the table again and again, listening quite obsessively, it seemed that his whole person was integrated into the Jiangnan style of the city, and a slight smile gradually appeared on his face.

After the song, Nanshu's voice lingered.

Nan Xirong didn't open his eyes, and he still tasted back: "Jiangnan, Jiangnan."

Only in a place like Jiangnan, the mountains are the mountains, the water is the water, the land of fish and rice, and the land of abundance.

God is so unfair, why does Beixia have such a heavenly place, but I Nan Yao does not.

This Gusu is prosperous, silk, tea, waterways extend in all directions, small bridges, flowing water, smoke and rain," he chuckled like a demon as he spoke, "Heh, such a Jiangnan, in the end, is still in my pocket."

The prosperity and richness of Northern Xia will eventually belong to me Nanyao. ” When he opened his eyes, the enormous ambition in his eyes was clear.

Nan Shu held the piano in his hand and said humbly: "Your Highness, the concubine is a little tired. ” Nan Xirong waved at her and said, "If you're tired, go down and rest." ” "Yes."

When the general of Nanshu got up, turned around and walked out of the door with the qin in his arms, a spy came in outside, as if he had something important to report.

Nanshu walked out gracefully, turned right towards the door, hesitated slightly, and then stopped on the right side of the door, holding his breath and listening attentively.

The spy said: "Your Highness, the waterway of the city has been blocked, but the guards at the city gate are very weak and can be attacked.

It's just" Nan Xirong straightened his body and said lazily: "It's just what" The spy said: "The enemy country's god of war sage king Su Jing and female general Ye Song have returned to the Faint City, and now they are in command of the Faint City. ” Nan Xirong laughed and said, "I didn't catch them last time, so I told them to escape, but I didn't expect to return to the faint city."

Last time, they were lucky, but this time, they didn't have that good luck.

The order went down, and the army marched towards the faint city. ” When Nan Xirong got up and walked out of the gate, Nan Shu didn't dare to stay any longer, and immediately left lightly.

After he left the main hall of the Taishou Mansion, he was led to a basement.

This basement was originally used as a dungeon in the yamen, and it was dark and damp, and as soon as you entered, there was an eerie cool air blowing in your face.

The walls of the narrow walkway are lit with faint firelight.

He made his way to the end and stopped in a stone chamber at the end.

There were a lot of ice cubes inside, and the ice cubes were all taken down from the mountains and brought back as quickly as possible.

And in the middle of the ice, there was a man lying there.

The armor on his body was covered in blood, and the ice was already stained red.

His face was as white as paper, but his eyes were open, and his pupils were cloudy.

Nan Xirong squatted down beside him without disgust at all, his smile was as enchanting as a ghost, and he said leisurely: "Soon it will be your turn to come in handy as a dead man."

Don't blame Hongu either, the two countries are at war, and there is bloodshed and sacrifice everywhere, which is inevitable.

And the soldiers are not tired of cheating, and it is understandable for this palace to use you, but I just don't know what the reaction of the generals of Northern Xia will be when the time comes, and this palace finds it interesting to think about it. ” When he got up to leave, Nan Xirong looked back at the person lying on the ice, and he didn't hesitate to turn around and bend down, stretched out his hand and brushed his eyes, and then left his hand, the cloudy pupils were already closed.

The whole city of Ducheng was on alert, and when the spies of Northern Xia found that Nan Yao's army was marching in the direction of Ducheng in a big way, they immediately returned to Su Jing.

Su Jing ordered all the people in the city to retreat to the north, and those young men who were willing to stay would fight the enemy together, and those who were not willing to stay could go north on their own.

Even if the city of darkness finally became an empty city, they had to defend it to the end.

However, just when the Northern Xia warriors in the faint city thought that a decisive battle was about to come, they did not expect that the army of Nan Yao was stationed five miles away from the faint city, and there was no intention of attacking overnight.

The news that the Northern Xia army, which resisted the Nan Yao army, was defeated in one fell swoop in Liuzhou inevitably reached Shangjing.

It caused an uproar and panic among the people of Northern Xia and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

This capital seems to have no more prosperity in the past.

In this sunny season, it is suitable for spring outings, but the streets are sparsely populated, and even the street stalls are closed except for the necessities of selling grain and oil, and the pedestrians on the road are all forced to come out and walk around for their livelihoods, and they are all hurried by, refusing to stop for a moment.

The rare good weather at the turn of spring and summer was all shrouded in the oppressive atmosphere of war.

It is precisely because of this war that the grain and oil market is very chaotic, and some profiteers take the opportunity to raise prices to make huge profits, plus the refugees who continue to pour into the city, because of the competition for food, sometimes in an alley to fight to the death and blood, only the government to stop it.

For this reason, the measure taken by Su Ruoqing is to make an example of others.

During the critical period, the laws and regulations of Northern Xia had to be strict, and some profiteers, who were particularly rampant, were escorted to the entrance of the vegetable market to be beheaded for public display, so that the profiteers did not dare to be overly active.

The refugees who made trouble were all grabbed and tied with hemp rope and hung on the city tower to dry for three days and two nights.

The palace is always like a golden and gorgeous cage, trapping the world's luxury in a cage, the outside is bright and warm, but the inside is cold all year round.

Su Ruoqing is in the palace, and he has a lot of opportunities to deal with the mountains of official documents.

He looks thinner than before, his temperament is more cold, he is mostly silent and silent, but he exudes a compelling momentum, as if he is a king on top of the nine-fold palace, lonely and endowed with the aura of a fairy.

When Su Ruoqing heard the news of Su Jing and Ye Song's defeat, he sat alone on the low table under the windowsill and was silent for a long time.

All the official documents on the table fell to the ground with a brush, and Gui had quietly picked them up one by one.

After a long time, Su Ruoqing asked: "How is Ah Song?"
