night enchanting

Chapter 1
Golden Palace.

The meager sunlight in winter shines through the cool white window paper into the luxurious emperor's bedroom, and the figure of the tall man in the bright yellow dragon robe is deeply imprinted on the body of the beautiful woman in white who is sitting on the ground. , with a haggard face, a sharp dagger tightly held in his hand, staring at the opposite emperor defensively.

The emperor stopped and stared at her bloodshot eyes, his face was extremely gloomy, his gaze was dull and complicated, he almost gritted his teeth and said, "Cen Xinyan, I will ask you for the last time, do you want to be my queen? "

"I don't want to!" Cen Xinyan didn't even think about it, and answered decisively: "Jin Han, don't waste your time, no matter how many times you ask, my answer will always be the same! I am married and have a child, and I have a promise to live with others , no matter what happens, I will never betray my husband!"

"You...!" Jin Han was furious when he heard the words, the veins on his forehead popped up, but he laughed back, thinking of him as the majestic emperor of a country, there is no woman who is not flocking to him, but this woman in front of him dismisses him and repeatedly rejects him !He clenched his fists suddenly, the smile on the corner of his mouth turned cold for a moment, and asked in a deep voice: "That man, is it really worth your sacrifice for him?"

Cen Xinyan raised his chin, and said extremely firmly: "Yes! He is worth my death for him!"

When she mentioned her beloved, her gaze became very gentle, and a strange light that Jin Han had never seen ignited in her eyes, and he couldn't help sneering: "Okay, very good! For 12 years, I have set up a harem for you, you But he is so ignorant of good and evil... Xinyan, I have given you enough opportunities, so don't blame me for being ruthless! Come and take her to the execution ground." After he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and turned his back coldly.

Several guards walked in immediately outside the door.

Cen Xinyan glanced at it disdainfully, put down the dagger, and said with a faint smile: "It's just a death!"

Jin Han turned around slowly, reached out to pinch her chin suddenly, and said with a sneer, "Death? How could I be willing to let you die! I just want you to see with your own eyes how they died!"

them?Cen Xinyan was taken aback for a moment, then opened his eyes wide suddenly, and asked with a trembling voice, "Who? Who did you arrest?"

Looking into her frightened eyes, Jin Han smiled cruelly: "Are you scared? I thought, in your eyes, you don't care about anyone else except that man."

Seeing the cold smile of the man in front of him, Cen Xinyan's heart trembled, and an ominous premonition swept over her heart immediately, causing a bone-chilling chill. She was about to speak to prove something but was quickly dragged away by the guards.

The execution ground has always been a bloody place, but there are always so many people watching.

Cen Xinyan was led through the crowd by the guards, and thrown onto the execution stage. Seeing at least 100 men, women and children kneeling on the execution ground below, she couldn't help but her expression changed drastically, her face turned ashen.As soon as those people below saw her, they jumped up excitedly and cursed: "Cen Xinyan, you bitch! You violated the imperial decree, escaped marriage without permission, and caused our whole family to die because of you! I curse you, you will die! "

"Cen Xinyan, you must die!"

Die badly...

The scene was chaotic for a while, and the surrounding guards rushed forward to suppress them and knelt them back to their original places. Those people resisted fiercely, and their eardrums were pierced by crying and cursing.Only a man and a woman who were tied to the pillar did not say a word, they just silently watched Cen Xinyan, who was already slumped on the execution platform, with tears in their eyes, but neither blame nor anger.

"Father! Mother!" Cen Xinyan suddenly yelled excitedly. As soon as she stood up, she was pushed back onto the chair vigorously by two guards on the left and right. She was restrained and unable to move.Powerless tears gushed out of her bloodshot eyes. She widened her eyes, unable to believe what she saw before her. Jin Han actually wanted to use the lives of her entire clan as punishment for rejecting him. !How can he be so cruel?She just didn't want to betray her husband and was reluctant to leave her two children. What's wrong with her?What's wrong with her parents and clan?

"It's time to carry out the execution." The ruthless voice of the beheading official rang in her ears, and she immediately shouted in horror: "No! Don't!"

Nobody cares.

More than 100 executioners raised their big knives at the same time, and slashed at the necks of the Cen clan mercilessly.

Bloody arrows soared into the sky, human heads rolled, and the entire execution ground was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made people sick.Cen Xinyan opened his mouth wide, his heartbeat paused for a moment, his eyes blurred by tears passed through the bloody half of the execution ground, and saw her parents tied to a thick stone pillar, still alive.Before she had time to rejoice or guess anything, the ruthless voice of the chief beheader sounded again: "Slay these two by three thousand knives!"

Like five thunders, Cen Xinyan froze and lost her reaction for a while. It was not until a horrifying scream came from the execution ground that she suddenly regained her consciousness, struggled with all her strength and shouted: "No——! Stop! Stop...don't Hurt my parents! Stop it...Master Qin, I want to see Jin Han! I want to see Jin Han!"

The Chief Executioner known as Master Qin glanced at her and said nothing.The cruel execution on the execution ground did not stop for a moment because of her helpless cries. She watched the flesh and blood of her parents flying in the air one by one, falling bloody in front of her eyes. She trembled all over. Crazy to break free from the shackles.

"Lord Qin, please... let them stop and take me to the emperor! Please... tell him that I am willing to be his queen, as long as he lets my parents go, I will promise anything..."

Her arms couldn't twist her thighs, how could she, an ordinary woman, be able to withstand the strong revenge given by the imperial power.

In the end, admit defeat.

However, Master Qin sighed: "It's late. The emperor will not see you again."

Cen Xinyan was desperate in the end, unable to even struggle, he could only stare wide at the once beautiful eyes that had lost all brilliance, and watched his parents' bodies revealing the gloomy bones.A total of three thousand knives, each knife seemed to be scratched on her heart, making her so painful that she couldn't breathe, but she was stubbornly unwilling to close her eyes. She just wanted to remember this bloody moment and remember that her parents died because of her. The torment I endured!Thinking of that encounter 13 years ago, she thought that handsome man would become her lifelong friend, but unexpectedly, a moment of soft-heartedness led to today's catastrophe.

It was she who harmed her parents and her clan.

"Jin Han, you... are so cruel!"

In November, it snowed heavily and the cold wind blew, turning the remaining tear stains on the woman's pale face into ice flowers.

For seven days and seven nights, she knelt in the ice and snow, digging a hole by herself, and buried her parents and clan members.Finally, he held the tombstone without words tightly, and after looking at it for a long time, he slowly got up, facing the direction of the palace, clenched his palms tightly, and said word by word in an extremely firm tone: "Jin Han, you destroy my people, Ling Chi me!" My parents, but let me live in this world alone... You want me to regret and feel guilty all my life, and I will never be happy again, and my life is worse than death, but I... I am not as good as you want, even if I am cursed by blood, I will Live extremely happily! And you, what you have done to me today, one day, I will make you pay back a thousand times!"

"Cen Xinyan, I swear here!"

The blood from the palm of her hand dripped into the icy snow, splashing a flower of blood, as if to fulfill her oath at this moment.

The way home is so far away.On that long journey, she was almost crawling all the way, and every time she fell down and was unable to open her eyes, an affectionate and anxious call would come from her ears: "Xinyan, where have you been? Why haven't you come back?"

"Mother, Yan'er misses you, come back soon..."

"Mother……"

"Leng Chi...Xiao'er...Yan'er..." She cried and got up from the ground, suddenly gaining strength again.She can't die, she wants to go home, there is her husband there, they made an agreement that they will never leave her forever; there is her son, a 12-year-old genius who has already been famous in the capital city; and the daughter who is as smart and beautiful as an elf...she My daughter always proudly told her that my mother is the best mother in the world!

Finally showing her first smile for a long time, she can't fall down, she wants to go home, only the warmth of home can make her heart no longer hurt so much.

After more than a month, he finally arrived in the capital city of Fengguo.

On that day, the entrance of the General's Mansion was covered with festive red silk, which looked particularly glaring against the white snow everywhere.

Cen Xinyan stood at the gate of the General's Mansion, already in a state of disfigurement, and she had long since lost sight of her past beauty. Her hair was disheveled, her face was pale, her white clothes were covered in mud and blood, and she had completely lost her true colors. Passers-by would detour when they saw her. And go.

"Where did you come from, crazy woman, go away! Our general is very happy today, and no one else is allowed to approach." A guard frowned and chased her away with a look of impatience.

Cen Xinyan was stunned, overjoyed? "Whose joy?"

"Of course it's our great general! Today is the day when the general marries the eldest princess, and he is paying homage at this time, so hurry and go."

There was a buzzing in Cen Xinyan's mind, and she went blank for a moment. She looked at the red silk at the door, and suddenly rushed in quickly. The guards didn't expect it, but it was too late to stop her.

The lobby of the General's Mansion was full of joy.

The bride and groom are performing the ceremony of husband and wife worship under the witness of countless people watching the ceremony.

Cen Xinyan stood outside the door blankly, staring at the handsome man in a happy suit with wide eyes in disbelief, unable to move his footsteps any longer.

Is this the person she would risk her life to betray?

For him, she sacrificed 130 lives of the entire family, and watched her parents who loved her the most suffer the death penalty... And he, the man she loved so much, rewarded her with... ...marry another woman in!

There was a bang in her head, the belief that supported her tenaciously along the way collapsed at this moment.

All the previous insistence suddenly became extremely ridiculous.And all the pain she had endured these days was meaningless.

Cen Xinyan laughed suddenly, the desolate and hopeless laughter made all the guests in the room tremble, and turned their heads to look.

"Leng Chi! You actually betrayed me!" She gritted her teeth, slamming every word.

Hearing her voice, Leng Chi's heart trembled, his body stiffened suddenly, and he couldn't continue the ceremony halfway through.

The bride suddenly lifted her hijab, with an angry expression on her face, she shouted: "Who are you? How dare you sabotage this princess's wedding! Someone, drag her out..." The guards who chased up from the door hurriedly dragged Cen Xinyan, coldly His complexion sank, and he quickly shouted: "Back off."

Leng Chi quickly walked towards the skinny woman at the door, held her slender shoulders with both hands, and asked in a trembling voice: "Xinyan...is it really you? Where have you been for so long? How did you do it?" Is it like this? Are you injured? Does it matter? Who hurt you, tell me quickly!"

A series of inquiries brought anxiety and distress, but Cen Xinyan never felt warm again.She just looked at him coldly, watching the bright red wedding dress on his body flaunt endless irony in front of her.In front of his eyes, there suddenly appeared the hideous faces of his parents distorted because they couldn't bear the pain caused by the capital punishment...

"My heart..."

"Don't call me!" Cen Xinyan suddenly went berserk, the three thousand knives that were slashed on her parents seemed to have pierced into her heart at the same time, making her heartbroken to death, and she lost all reason.She raised her head and stared at her husband, eyes filled with resentment for a moment, and said in a cold and decisive voice: "Leng Chi, you betrayed me! I will make you regret it forever! No matter what price you pay!"

After she finished speaking, she laughed and left, feeling that there was nothing in this world that was worth cherishing for her.She wanted to take revenge, and she would do everything in her power to destroy everything that the man cherished the most.

That afternoon, Langya Mountain.

Cen Xinyan, who had lost his mind, took his seven-year-old daughter to the top of the mountain.The child looked at the mother who suddenly left and came back suddenly but became very strange, and asked anxiously: "Mother, where are you going to take Yan'er?"

In the past, her mother would have stopped, stroked her hair lovingly, and answered her questions with a gentle smile, but today, her mother walked straight ahead without even looking at her.

She seemed to feel the great grief in her mother's heart, and suddenly ran a few steps forward, held her mother's hand tightly, held her little head high, and said firmly to her mother: "Mother, no matter who father married, mother will always be Yan'er's favorite person is also Yan'er's only mother!"

Cen Xinyan paused and became stiff for a moment, but he still didn't look back, and quickly shook off the girl's hand.

The mountain road was snow-slippery, the girl followed her mother, climbed up with difficulty, stepped on the air halfway up the mountain and fell, her head hit a corner of a raised rock, and bright red blood flowed out from her forehead, and she died in a short while. Frozen by the cold air, it froze on her small forehead, and the padded jacket on her body was cut by a dead branch with thorns, revealing a bright red birthmark in the shape of a fallen flower, on the front of her left shoulder.

Her mother turned her head back, but did not extend a helping hand to her, but stood at a high place and looked at her coldly without saying a word.

Her mother's indifferent and empty eyes made her a little scared and aggrieved.She slowly got up from the ground, and gently patted the snow and dirt on her body with her small hands. There were fine drops of blood oozing from the palm cut by the dry branches. She hesitated and wiped it a few times on her body, and then continued to go mountain climb.When he reached the top of the mountain, his forehead, arms, and palms... were all wounded, and blood stains could be seen everywhere on the goose-yellow padded jacket.She raised her head and stared at her mother's indifferent face. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them flow.

A moment later, Leng Chi brought his 12-year-old son, Leng Yixiao, to the top of the mountain. Seeing his beloved daughter and wife standing on the edge of the cliff, Leng Chi's expression changed drastically, and his heart was instantly enveloped in panic. He shouted, "Xinyan, what are you going to do?"

At this time, Cen Xinyan was blinded by the hatred in her heart. The only thing she wanted to do was to make the person who betrayed her regret for the rest of her life.

"What to do? You will know soon." Cen Xinyan laughed cruelly, turned around and pushed his daughter beside him down the bottomless cliff!

"Ah—! Mother..."

The shrill and panic-stricken cry pierced the sky in an instant. On Langya Mountain and under the cliff, the seven-year-old child opened his eyes wide, in disbelief...
