The palace made of huge stones is tall and majestic, but the taller the building, the greater the shadow. This is the case with the imperial palace of the Qi Dynasty.

There are countless corpses buried in this beautiful palace, and the dark palace walls may have been stained black with blood.

Situ Herong was sitting on the high dragon chair, looking down at the ministers kneeling in front of him. Listening to their reports one after another, the anger in his eyes could not be suppressed.

However, no matter how angry he was, he did not listen to the report of the battle situation by his soldiers: "General Liu ordered a hundred thousand soldiers to conquer the rebels, but he did not expect that all the Northwest Army had already gone north, fought with the Turkic army, and robbed the Turks of their cattle, sheep, and women.

, in the end the Turks were chased all the way south, and happened to bump into General Liu's troops. Although General Liu wiped out the Turks troops, he had no strength to fight anymore and was unable to pursue the Northwest Army."

"Weak to pursue, such a weak to pursue, could it be that he also wants to take refuge in Bei Junfeng?" Situ Herong tightly grasped the handle of the dragon chair, his fingers had turned white.

"Your Majesty, General Liu has no such intention! Your Majesty, please calm down!" Someone immediately knelt down to persuade. After persuading, they began to discuss ways to deal with Bei Junfeng.

In the past, these ministers felt that Bei Junfeng was self-respecting, and fabricating news about the Turks going south to ask for food and grass was too much, and they could not tolerate it. But now, they all persuaded Situ Herong to give Bei Junfeng food and military pay, and they must not let Bei Junfeng

I really felt resentful.

But it's too late to do all this now, because Bei Junfeng has already turned against him!

Situ Herong looked at the faces of the people below and thought of Bei Junfeng's betrayal. He held it in his heart and couldn't get up or get down.

He never thought that Bei Junfeng, who had always been around him and looked at him with eyes filled with admiration, would betray him.

Didn't Bei Junfeng say that he would always stand by his side? Why would he betray him?

Ever since he learned that Bei Junfeng was not only alive, but also returned to the Northwest Army camp, and even drove out the soldiers who were not of the same mind as him, Situ Herong had not slept peacefully, and his heart was full of anger and unwillingness.

Those ministers have begun to blame each other. They feel that if some people were not willing to provide food and grass, they would not be where they are now. Not only that, they also think that they can marry the princess to Bei Junfeng, so that Bei Junfeng can deal with the Turks.

Don't go south.

Marrying a princess? Situ Herong's face suddenly became very ugly. Now the only princess of the royal family's age is his eldest daughter, who is thirteen years old. Is he going to marry his precious Rou'er to that reckless husband Bei Junfeng?

dream!

That guy Bei Junfeng likes men and likes to be dominated by him. How can such a person be worthy of his Rou'er?

Situ Herong's anger could no longer be suppressed. He stood up suddenly, kicked over the stove that was used for heating, and left the meeting hall without caring about the ministers in front of him.

Feeling very depressed, Bei Junfeng went to the Queen's place. As soon as he sat down, his eldest daughter Situ Rou came: "Father, you are here! Father, I made Tremella lily soup today, and it made me angry the most.

Father, please drink a little."

Situ Herong had always doted on this daughter. He wanted to smile at this time, but suddenly he remembered the suggestions of those ministers, and his face instantly turned cold.

"Father?" Situ Rou looked at Situ Herong worriedly.

Situ Herong's face is still ugly. Bei Junfeng has not married for many years. Many people think that he is inhumane, but he knows very well that there is nothing wrong with Bei Junfeng's health. If Rou'er marries Bei Junfeng...

The image of Bei Junfeng's face full of lust and suppressing Situ Rou came to mind. Situ Herong was angry for some reason, and with a fierce wave of his hand, he swept all the Tremella soup that Situ Rou was holding to the ground.

.

"Father!" Situ Rou looked at his father in fear. Only then did Situ Herong come back to his senses. He knew that he had frightened his daughter, but he was in no mood to comfort her: "Rou'er, father is not in a good mood.

Okay, you go down first."

Seeing his daughter leaving, Situ Herong gritted his teeth again and clutched his chest tightly.

Bei Junfeng actually betrayed him!

Back then, he was just an unpopular prince, with very few useful people around him and very few people he could trust. The only one was Bei Junfeng, who was not with him for profit, and at the same time, he could trust him completely.

However, the only person he thought he could trust has now betrayed him!

Situ Herong sat alone for a long time before saying: "Bring An Jiu."

An Jiu was the one he sent to kill Bei Junfeng. Because Bei Junfeng escaped, An Jiu was pulled down and tortured as soon as he came back. It was only now that he wanted to know what happened at that time.

An Jiu's body was bruised and bruised, but his speaking voice had no fluctuation: "Your Majesty, Bei Junfeng was already at the end of his strength at that time. He was hit by several arrows. Even if he was rescued by Wang Bao, he would not be able to survive far. I don't know why they could survive."

Escape from the search of the servants."

"How many arrows were shot in the body?" Situ Herong suddenly felt nervous, and the face with a scar appeared in front of him.

He remembered that the few times he was with Bei Junfeng, the scars on his body became more and more numerous every time. This time... he was hit by several arrows again?

"Yes, Your Majesty. When Bei Junfeng was taken away, he was already unconscious due to excessive blood loss..."

"Does he know your identities?" Situ Herong suddenly interrupted the other party.

"Bei Junfeng didn't know about it at first, but we accidentally exposed our whereabouts during the final siege." An Jiu whispered.

"How did he react at that time?" Situ Herong suddenly asked.

"Bei Junfeng was so surprised at the time that he was almost killed by his neck. However, when Wang Bao came, he suddenly became violent again."

Situ Herong could imagine Bei Junfeng's mood at that time. He suddenly found out that he wanted to kill him. Bei Junfeng must have been very desperate. And Abao suddenly appeared. He might feel that he didn't want him to die? But later, Abao gave him

The answer is even more desperate.

Thinking of this, he felt cold all over for some reason.

However, such coldness quickly dissipated due to anger. Bei Junfeng kept saying that he was willing to die for him. If so, if he wanted to kill him, why didn't this man die?

Various emotions rolled and collided in his chest. Situ Herong couldn't calm down for a while. He sat alone for a long time, then drove away the palace people around him and walked alone in the imperial garden.

When he was still a prince, he once came to this imperial garden with Bei Junfeng. At that time, he knew that the third prince wanted to harm him, so he deliberately took Bei Junfeng to hide behind the rockery and heard some harsh words from the third prince...

…

Shaking his head, Situ Herong shook all these memories out of his mind. He rarely thought of Bei Junfeng before, not only why, but recently he remembered a lot of things.

Unknowingly, Situ Herong came to the rockery where he and Bei Junfeng were hiding together. He didn't know if it was a coincidence, but not long after he entered the secret place, he actually saw his queen and his wife through the cracks in the rocks.

Her most trusted wet nurse is here.

"Mommy, after Rou'er has cried, you must tell her not to get close to her father recently."

"Yes, empress."

"Mommy, His Majesty has been in a bad mood recently, it's better for us not to get in front of him... By the way, Auntie, tell that beauty Sun that His Majesty was swayed by Bei Junfeng, and then encourage her to do it.

Your Majesty, if you send her the tonic soup, it is best for her to say bad things about Bei Junfeng."

"Your Majesty, now that General Bei is about to proclaim himself king, is this method still useful?"

"Of course it works. Our Majesty himself looks down on Bei Junfeng in every possible way, but if others say bad things about Bei Junfeng, he will definitely hold a grudge, especially at this time..."

"Empress, is it possible that Your Majesty still has feelings for General Bei?"

"Of course, but I'm afraid he doesn't even know what he's thinking." The queen's voice was calm, and she walked away as she spoke.

Situ Herong stayed where he was, unable to react for a moment. He had thoughts about Bei Junfeng? How could it be possible? But if not, how could his queen be so sure?

Situ Herong stood there for a while, then returned to the imperial study, and then began to deal with government affairs as usual. However, for some reason, Bei Junfeng's appearance kept lingering in front of him. That night, for the first time, he dreamed of Bei Junfeng.

Junfeng.

The next day, news came from the border that Bei Junfeng had proclaimed himself king and built a city under a mountain outside the Great Wall. At the same time, an envoy had been sent to hope for good relations between the two countries.

Half a month later, Situ Herong met the envoy and saw the credentials submitted. In the credentials, Bei Junfeng was neither humble nor arrogant. He only said that he was trying to find a way for his soldiers to survive.

My soldiers... yes, my soldiers!

Although Bei Junfeng fought in all directions, he always had a kindred spirit and valued human life very seriously. It didn't matter if he died, but if his soldiers were buried with him...

When he was alone, Situ Herong suddenly couldn't help but laugh.

I don't know when he started to fall in love with Bei Junfeng.

However, even if he liked him, Bei Junfeng could not compare with his power, so he wanted to kill Bei Junfeng and also wanted Bei Junfeng's soldiers to be buried with him.

Unfortunately, everything backfired, and all of this actually contributed to Bei Junfeng's betrayal.
