Chapter 357 Huang Liang 1 Dream
That night, while the fool was sleeping soundly, Xu Jing took out a kitchen knife and cut the fool's throat with a swift and decisive move.
He then went to his mother-in-law's room and hacked at her dozens of times, like mincing meat, until there was no more room to cut on the body.
In the courtyard, Prince Jing leaned on a cane and watched her do all this quietly.
"Can you go?"
"and many more!"
Covered in blood, Xu Jing pulled out a handful of firewood from the stove, lit it, and threw it into the hut. Watching the blazing fire, her heart finally became clear!
During this period, she had the same dream over and over again.
In the dream, she was the imperial concubine of Emperor Li Gan.
She lived in the most magnificent palace and held the most respected status and power in the world. The Marquis of Jinyuan was her right-hand man, and the concubine of the Crown Prince Pei Yan, Liu Xu, was her most capable assistant.
Relying on Pei Yan and Liu Xu, she accumulated wealth that rivaled that of a country, and also held the secret of making muskets. Even the emperor had to give her some respect.
Not to mention Lin Wantang, the useless dessert queen.
As for Su Li, hehe...
Pei Yan gave her to different people in exchange for benefits. From the yamen runners on the road to exile, to the minor clerks who guarded the refugees, to the local officials, and the high officials in the capital...
There is nothing she hasn't slept with!
Later, after Pei Yan squeezed out all her usefulness, she was thrown into a brothel, where she lived a life worse than death. In the end, her body was festering and she died. She was thrown out naked on a straw mat.
When Qin saw her daughter's death, she went crazy on the spot.
As for Su Zhe, he rushed into the Marquis of Jinyuan's mansion with a knife in hand, intending to kill Pei Yan to vent his anger, but was shot through by Liu Xu! His intestines spilled all over the floor...
Marquis Yong'an joined forces with several people who were dissatisfied with her and Pei Yan and submitted a petition to the emperor to impeach them. She then sent people to arrest them and take them to the Dali Temple, where they were tortured to death.
What’s even more interesting is that the person who carried out the torture was none other than Pei Huan.
Pei Huan is quite a character.
After Pei Heng's death, the Marquisate ignored him. When the Marquisate fell into decline, he was spared by the late emperor because of his status as Pei Heng's son.
He wandered around with his sister, and managed to pass the exams step by step with his own ability. However, as the top scholar, he chose to go to the Dali Temple to take charge of criminal justice.
However, he is really a good knife for killing people!
Over the years, Pei Yan had coaxed them into killing many people! Anyone who entered the Dali Temple couldn't be pried open by him! There was nothing he couldn't ask!
However, he became increasingly disobedient and out of control. She and Pei Yan had no choice but to come up with a plan to frame him for a crime he didn't even know existed.
This cruel official eventually died under the torture he invented. He was cut with thousands of knives, and his flesh was shaved off and his blood was drained before he died.
His sister, who wanted to save him, seemed to be called Pei Xi, knelt outside the Dali Temple to plead for mercy, but was sold to a brothel by Pei Yan.
I heard she was desperate for a while, but in the end, she just gave in and became a famous courtesan on the Liujing River.
Everything in the dream is refreshing.
That should be her life!
Instead of being in poverty and destitute, being a prostitute! Being trapped in this deserted village, being a tool for a fool to give birth to a child!
The firelight shone on her face, and Xu Jing smiled like a devil that had just crawled out of hell.
Originally, she thought it was just a dream.
When I woke up from the dream, I still repeated it numbly.
But the moment she saw King Kang in the river, she understood.
Perhaps this dream is the future she foresaw, and King Kang is her opportunity to change everything!
Although there are still some irrational things in the dream that she still hasn't figured out -
For example, catkins have already died!
For example, Pei Heng is still alive and well!
And Su Li, although she was indeed married to Pei Yan at the beginning, she is now Pei Heng's wife!
do not care!
Since everything has been warned, she believes it can be achieved.
……
Three days later.
Su Zhe brought a team of people to this place.
This is the border between Yizhou and Dali Kingdom. A few miles further ahead is the territory of Dali Kingdom.
The deserted village is sparsely populated and you can't find many houses even if you walk ten miles.
The pile of rubble before them was charred black, leaving no trace of anything. A few villagers stood at a distance, whispering to each other, not daring to approach.
"Commander, I heard a murder occurred here three days ago. A young wife killed her mother-in-law and her idiot husband, burned down the thatched cottage, and ran away."
"I showed them the portrait of King Kang, but they all said they didn't see it."
Listening to his subordinates' reports, Su Zhe's brows were twisted into knots.
These days, they searched everywhere along the waterways for King Kang's whereabouts, but they could not find him.
"Did he really die in the belly of the fish?" Su Zhe said to himself.
"Commander, he was so badly injured and fell into the cold river. The chances of him surviving are extremely slim. Even if we take a step back, we have practically turned Yizhou upside down these past few days. If he were still alive, he would definitely have escaped our attention."
The subordinates began to speculate.
"If he is still alive, he will go to Dali. Dali is in chaos right now, and Peng Pei can no longer protect himself. Even if he goes there, he will die!"
Su Zhe nodded.
He reined in his horse and turned around, saying, "Send a pigeon and quickly tell Shengjing the news here. Also..."
After taking a look at Dali, Su Zhe remembered that his elder sister and brother-in-law had told him that they could ask the people they left in Dali for help when necessary. He said slowly:
"Send a message to Helan Yue and the others, asking them to help keep an eye out for King Kang's whereabouts. If they find him, kill him without mercy!"
"Yes!"
……
In Dali.
The camp was quiet, with only the crackling of the campfire. A team of soldiers on night patrol walked by in neat steps.
A bright moon hangs high in the woods, and the moonlight is cold.
The excruciating pain of being cut into pieces came again, and Pei Huanteng woke up from the nightmare with a start.
I couldn't tell whether what I saw was real or an illusion! Was it the human world or hell?
Pei Huan looked at the bright moon above his head and recalled for a long time before he slowly woke up. He was now the 10-year-old Huan Ge'er, not the 20-year-old Pei Huan, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.
Half a year ago, he woke up on a ship and found that his body had shrunk back to the age of 10. Everything around him was unfamiliar.
He touched his body, which should have been just a skeleton, and found it was intact. In less than a quarter of an hour, he understood his situation!
He - is reborn!
After being framed by Pei Yan and Concubine Xu, and being cut into pieces and dying with hatred, he was reborn as a 10-year-old.
But why would the 10-year-old boy appear alone on a ship to Dali? According to his distant memory, his father had died when he was 10, the marquis's mansion had been ransacked, and he should have been wandering with his sister Pei Xi.
Everything in front of me is obviously not the case.
Childhood memories are overlapping and confusing.
After a splitting headache for a while, he finally sorted out everything in front of him.
My father didn't die! He recovered!
He actually has a mother!
And his mother was actually his aunt from his previous life? Pei Yan's wife—Su Li! !!! That foolish woman, blinded by love and exploited by Pei Yan until nothing was left of her!
And he and Pei Xi, they have a father, a mother and a home in this life, and not long ago his mother just gave birth to a new brother for him!
He pinched himself hard, and the intense pain proved that all this was not a dream!
At that moment, his iron-cold heart suddenly ached.
A voice in his heart told him to go back immediately, otherwise his mother and father would worry about him. But another stronger will told him to calm down and think carefully.
He…isn't ready to go back yet.
