Chapter 310 Trampled True Heart
In the Chenji Palace, most of the guards have been urgently sent to the periphery of the palace by Ouyang Hongye. Compared with the previous few days, it is much cleaner. Accompanied by the wind and fire, Lion King Cheng bypassed the Tianquan Hall and walked towards the Fuxing Hall, with a rare panic in his expression and footsteps.
"Godfather, is everything they said true?" Feng Huo hesitated and asked again and again.
"Shh! Don't say anything before the facts are confirmed. It's not a joke!" Lion Wangcheng gasped a little loudly because he walked in a hurry, and his voice also trembled.
"Yes!" After the wind and fire, he lowered his head and stopped talking.
Recently, his godfather Lion Wang Cheng has not allowed him to participate in the actions of the demon king fox and others. He has nothing to do in the Kaiyang Hall all day long. He can only occasionally find Shi Yaoyanming to accompany him to play a few ghost chess, but the chess skills of the two are so different that every time Shi Yao Yanming deliberately releases water to him, so that he can take a few more steps. Over time, he became less interested.
He also asked Lion Wangcheng several times about the reason for not letting him go to war, but every time he prevaricates with some irrelevant things. Even if Fenghuo's brain is not very smart, he can feel that he is deliberately avoiding his doubts, and he vaguely feels that Shi Yaoyanming should also know the reason.
This day was no different from the past. He also thought he would spend it in boredom again, so he got drunk at noon and simply took a nap on the slate in the courtyard. Unconsciously, he slept until the evening. When he was half asleep and half awake, he felt that someone was standing beside him. He opened his sleepy eyes and saw that it was Ouyang Hongye.
"I finally saw what a lazy cat is!" Ouyang Hongye said with a smile.
"Oh, isn't this Red Leaf? Why did you come to Kaiyang Hall when you were free today?
It is rare for the wind and fire not to get angry for being woken up, but directly get up and move the stiff neck sleeping on the slate. Recently, the affairs of the size of Chenji Palace are basically handled by Ouyang Hongye alone. Even if he meets him in the palace, it is difficult for him to have time to chat with him, so now he suddenly appears, which makes Fenghuo more or less happy to have someone to talk to.
"I'm here to find Elder Cheng. As a result, I saw someone being lazy here. If you are so idle, you might as well come and help me."
Ouyang Hongye mentioned to Lion Wangcheng several times that he wanted Fenghuo to help him train the troops in Wangcheng, but Lion Wangcheng always excused his request because he was in poor health and needed Fenghuo to take care of him often.
"I think that I'm about to grow hair when I stay here every day. I'm still suitable for riding a demon horse. It's a pity... Alas!" Feng Huo scratched his head and complained, "My godfather should be in the study at this time. I'll go to find him with you."
Since the storm of the Divine Pillar crisis last year, Lion Wangcheng's health has not been as good as before, and his vitality has never been fully restored. The stone demon Yanming has long predicted that the surface calm of the demon world in the past 16 years will be completely broken. The divine pillar crisis is only a sign. The death of the human blood alliance is the real beginning, and the second thing that has predicted death is wind and fire.
Although as a member of the king city, the subjects of the demon king fox, sometimes have to ignore the personal life and death, the lion king still wants to protect the wind and fire in his own way. So he asked Shi Yao Yanming how to avoid this disaster. Shi Yao Yanming told him that the only way was to leave it in the Chenji Palace. Once he left the Chenji Palace or left the royal city, he would inevitably encounter misfortune.
With the personality of wind and fire, if he was told to leave him in the Chenji Palace because of the prophecy of the stone demon, he would not think so, so he took his body as the reason. Although Fenghuo was reckless, he was extremely filial to his adoptive father, so he did not leave the palace again. Lion Wangcheng, who lived his age, also knew that it was not a long-term plan for him to do so. There would always be accidents, but he didn't expect that the accident would come so quickly.
Ouyang Hongye walked into the study of Lion Wangcheng with the wind and fire. After saluted, he said, "Eden Elder Cheng, Elder Yong, please go to the Fuxing Hall!"
"Oh? Just send someone as you like. Why do you want the prince to come and invite him in person? Lion King Cheng put down the two walnut balls he was playing with in his hand. He secretly thought that Ouyang Hongye's sudden visit showed that a big thing must have happened in the palace, but he still pretended to be puzzled.
"This matter is not a small matter. It is not appropriate to let too many people know for the time being, so Elder Yong specially sent me to invite." Ouyang Hongye answered.
"Let me know what's going on first!"
"Good! I have found the traitor in the king's city!"
"What?! Who?! Lion King Cheng asked in shock.
"Listen to the wife of the moon, Miao Xueyou."
"It turned out to be her..." Shi Wangcheng's face changed dramatically and continued, "Well, you go first. I'll go with the wind and fire when I'm a little ready!"
In the Fuxing Hall, Miao Xueyou stood in front of everyone in plain clothes, and her whole body looked even thinner. She tried not to look at Ouyang Yong, nor did she want to visit the moon's expression. She knew that any of them must hate her to the bone, and she had long been ready to be sentenced.
Ouyang Yong did not ask her to kneel down or tie her up. He felt that since she chose to admit the crime, she would not escape. In fact, he watched Miao Xueyou grow up. She was still a baby when she was brought back to Chenji Palace by Tingyue. Because a big man in Tingyue was inconvenient to take care of her, he left her here in Ouyang Yong. She ran around the Fuxing Hall as if it was yesterday. Once upon a time, she and he were like a father and daughter, but she didn't know. Since when have they become estranged? He can't even remember the last time she came to Fuxing Hall to find him.
Qianqi and Ling Yu were arranged to stand on both sides of the chair where Wangyue was sitting. They wanted to make sure that Wangyue would bounce up from the seat at any time due to impulse. Wang Yue stared at Miao Xueyou without blinking. He really wanted to see what this woman's heart was made of, so vicious.
His brother's love for this woman once made him a little jealous as a younger brother. At any time, he was so gentle to her, because he had lost all her peers since she was a child, so he was careful that she would be hurt a little. He was silent about all her likes and dislikes. Keep it in mind. But who would have thought that his brother's death would be closely related to the woman he loved most.
As soon as Lion Wangcheng and Fenghuo walked into the Fuxing Hall, they felt the tense atmosphere here. Unlike in the past, this time, no one was eager to blame Miao Xueyou's crime as a traitor. Everyone was silent. Maybe there were too many things they wanted to say in their hearts, but they didn't know where to start.
Ouyang Hongye led Lion Wang Cheng to sit next to Ouyang Yong's seat in the front, and he and Fenghuo stood behind them respectively.
Ouyang Yong nodded to Lion Wangcheng, and then turned to the front and ordered, "Miao Xueyou, repeat what you just said to Elder Cheng!"
"I did it all by myself, destroying the seal of the divine pillar, letting go of Yecha, and telling Qingyun your plan. I did all this." Miao Xueyou paused here, and then a neurotic smile suddenly flashed on her expressionless face. "And... Sixteen years ago, I sold the situation in the royal city and the lax guards in the city during the New Year's celebration to Qingyun."
"You..." Wang Yue almost jumped up from the chair, and Qianqi and Lingyu took a lot of effort to press him down.
"Why?" Ouyang Yong asked.
His eyes were full of sadness. Since when did he not know Miao Xueyou at all? The little girl who also surrounded him and asked him to tell her stories or play games with her. How did Miao Xueyou, who would be happy for a small gift or a new dress, become what she is today? He can't figure it out.
"Because of hatred!" Miao Xueyou answered without hesitation.
"Hate?" Ouyang Yong, like everyone present, became more and more puzzled.
"Yes, I hate you, but you have to marry me to Tingyue, so that I can face the ugly scars on his body every day! Why?! Just because he picked it up, I don't even have the right to choose?! You know that the person I love is Lord Xueye, but you want me to stay with a person I don't love at all for the rest of my life. I will take revenge on him, and I will take revenge on you!" Miao Xueyou pointed to the people around her, and her voice echoed throughout the hall. For a long time, she was finally able to make her heart public and no longer afraid that others would find the darkness hidden under her beautiful appearance.
"I want to ask you too! Do you know how my brother's scars came from?! In order to strengthen his strength, Qingyun decided to kill all the snow girls in the snow-blowing land and use their souls to practice. My brother happened to pass by there. Unfortunately, he was outnumbered and only saved you. In order to save you, he was chased by Yecha, Rasha and others. In order to protect you, he was injured by the fire of hell. He was such a beautiful person..." Wang Yue said that he was sobbing when he came here. What made him painful was that his brother's sincerity would be Trampling to such a point.
Ouyang Hongye then said, "He begged us to hide this from you for fear that you would repay him for this. He always felt that it was too heavy for you. He thought you could finally feel that he was infatuated with him, but he didn't expect it to hurt himself."
"Impossible... How could this happen? I don't believe it!"
Miao Xue kept shaking her head, and her feet softened, and she fell to the ground. She meditated in her heart that everyone was lying to her, and only what she had always believed was true. Why didn't you tell her these things until the moon died? Why is he so stupid that he can impress her with his heart? But what is really stupid is actually herself. She killed the only person in the world who regards her as a treasure, her savior, her husband, and the father of her child.
"What Wang Yue and Hong Ye said is true. Look at the Snow Rabbit and you will know that she looks more and more like her father. The original appearance of Tingyue was not inferior to that of the snowy night and red leaves. Unfortunately, he only wanted to protect you at that time. As a result, he was seriously burned by the hellfire of Rasha's mother, so he was disfigured. When he knew that his appearance could not be recovered, he had been passive and burned all his portraits. But watching you grow up day by day, the wounds in his heart also healed.
Ouyang sighed bravely. If he had known that such a thing would happen, why did they hide the truth from Miao Xueyou?
