Poor children

Chapter 189 Deliberately sacrifice everything for the present

一
"Why haven't you seen your personal bodyguard recently?" Pao'er suddenly thought of You'an, who was always by the prince's side. It seemed that he hadn't been seen for a long time, which was abnormal.
"He went to do something..." Before the prince could finish his words, the execution cannon sounded again, and the prince smiled slightly, "Our lives will be in danger if the cannon fires again."

"I don't understand a little bit," the poor man said to himself, "Why does the emperor seem not to be too worried even though the king's army has reached the city gate?"

The prince snorted softly when he heard the words, "He is a foolish king. He always thinks that he has a vast land, abundant resources, and strong soldiers and horses. Naturally, he does not take the small country in his eyes..."

"There are naturally people in the court who can distinguish right from wrong. We shouldn't be so confused," Pao'er said again.
"If there are people like this, it depends on whether they are willing to say it. Many people in the court have lost heart. They know that even if they say something, they are asking for trouble. In addition, I called a few good colleagues to go. Confusing him, he only thought from beginning to end that they were just some stragglers from the northwest who had nowhere to go and came to make trouble..." the prince said

Pao'er looked at the prince in surprise, "Since when have you been planning this day?"

My grandfather smiled and said, "I don't have any plans, but I just rushed to get here today. I just obeyed the destiny. Didn't my son-in-law outside the city gate also follow the destiny to come here?"

There was another burst of cannon, and the executioner sprayed a large mouthful of wine on the knife. Suddenly there was chaos under the execution platform. Wu'er only jumped onto the execution platform, and with one sword slashed the executioner behind the poor man who raised the knife. Got it
The seven-foot-tall man fell to the stage with a "clang", and many people rushed up from below. The entire execution ground became a mess in an instant.

Those three cannon shots also became Tianxing's siege signal. At this moment, the city and outside the city became lively, and there was a fight...

Fang Shaoqin brought many people from nowhere and rescued the prince and several ladies.
When Pao'er saw a crowd of people killing each other, she felt a little dazed in her heart. This father used to be like a stranger to her, and not long ago he treated her like a loving father, but now everything is going on. It seems that it was all arranged by him intentionally, so could it be that the trace of paternal love for her was just a fake by him, part of his plan?
Too much worry was stuck in her chest, she only felt a cramping pain in her stomach, a bloody smell rolled up, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, she only felt a sudden dizziness, just before she was about to lose consciousness, she seemed to be Seeing Tiedan'er running towards her...

"Where is this?" I don't know how long I have been sleeping, but Paoer slowly woke up from his drowsiness.
"Master, you're awake..." After hearing Pao'er's words, Wu'er hurriedly got up from the table where he was sitting and ran over.

The pauper opened her eyes slightly, and when she saw the oil lamp on the table, she felt it was a bit dazzling. She wanted to struggle to sit up, but she felt that her whole body was weak and she couldn't even exert any strength.
Seeing this, Wu'er hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and put two pillows behind her back. "Master must be thirsty. I'll get you a glass of water..."

When Wuer saw the poor boy waking up, he felt excited and happy at the same time. He hurriedly poured a glass of water and brought it to the poor boy to drink.

"What time is it now?" The poor boy asked when he saw that it was getting late

"It's past the ugly time." Wu'er brought another bowl of porridge from the simple stove at the door. "Master must be hungry. Since you fell asleep, I have been cooking a pot of porridge and simmering it here every day. I thought to myself I'll have something to eat as soon as the master wakes up..."

After listening to Wu'er's words, Pao'er knew in his heart that he might have been in a coma for some time.

Wu'er held the porridge, scooped it out with a small spoon, blew it to cool it, and carefully fed it to the poor child one by one. After eating the warm porridge, the poor child felt more comfortable, and he no longer felt so weak after a while.
"I seem to have seen Brother Tiedaner." After eating the porridge, Paoer leaned on the pillow and recalled what happened before he fainted.

"Oh, General Huang has just left for a while. These days, everyone has been very anxious. The boss invited several doctors to treat them, but they didn't get any better. They almost died. General Huang didn't even think about it. I've been guarding here day and night. Yesterday, the king sent the imperial doctor over. Unexpectedly, he woke up after taking a dose of medicine..." Wu'er just said what he said and didn't care whether the poor child understood it or not.
After hearing what she said, Pao'er looked around again, "So I'm in Qilin Village..."

"Master..." Wu'er saw that the pauper looked a little disappointed and said hurriedly, "The city was in chaos at that time. You had an emergency again. The king is still outside the city. We have no way. We don't know where to send you. It's safe, so I have to take you back to the stronghold first. This is not the king's intention. I heard that the king entered the city and immediately looked for you everywhere. But by then we had taken you from the other side of the city gate where there was no battle. Come out..." "I know, I don't mean to blame the king..." The poor man still leaned on the pillow weakly, "How is the city now?"

"Your Majesty has proclaimed himself emperor. It's just out of your benevolence that he didn't kill the Emperor of the Central Plains. He just sent him to become a monk at Lingjiu Temple..." Wu'er said.

"Monk? How could the Buddha influence such a cruel person? If it weren't for him, how could Zi Tong have lost his mother at such a young age? How could so many people have died tragically?" The poor boy closed his eyes weakly.

"There's one more thing... I think the master should know..." Wu'er arrived again

Hearing this, the pauper opened his eyes again and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The beloved concubine of the Emperor of the Central Plains..."

"Is she dead?" Pao'er asked, "It was all her instigation. She is the one who deserves to die the most."

"Master, that beloved concubine, she...she is the king's cousin, the granddaughter of Old Prime Minister Han, she is the only daughter of the king's deceased aunt, she is Her Royal Highness Princess Yuyou of the Northwest..."

"Princess? Why has no one mentioned her before? Why is she the favorite concubine of the Emperor of the Central Plains?" Countless possibilities flashed through Pao'er's mind.

"In the past, we have only heard of the eldest princess's name, but no one has ever seen her face. We don't know when she came to the Central Plains, and how she became the favorite concubine of the Central Plains emperor..." Wu'er answered.

"Tianxing... Tianxing!" Paoer shouted in a low voice, "How could you do it? How could you do it? You actually sacrificed the lives of so many people to fulfill your ambition?"

"What did the master say?" Wu'er didn't understand.
But at this moment, Pao'er knew clearly in his heart that whatever the prince had planned no longer meant anything in front of Tianxing...

How could Tian Xing use her to find an excuse for him to attack the Central Plains?She made so many plans just to avenge those innocent souls who died under the greed of the Central Plains Emperor. But at this moment, she understood that it was not the Central Plains Emperor who was really greedy, but the husband she had always loved deeply, his My cousin had already arrived in the Central Plains early, and was deliberately looking for an excuse for him to raise an army. What kind of honeydew melons from Guazhou are good?What Mrs. Xiao?What Mrs. Gan?And his biological second prince...

At this moment, Paoer's heart ached. Was this really the Tianxing who treated her tenderly?Why is he so cold-blooded and ruthless, willing to sacrifice anything for his status...

Could it be, if one day, if she blocks his way...

At that moment, a barrier rose up in Paoer's heart. No matter how deep the feelings were, they could be completely destroyed by just one or just a moment of distrust...
