The day was unbearably oppressive, heavy and languid. The sweltering air hung thick in the atmosphere, suffocating everyone. Even the chirping of cicadas from the treetops intensified the sense of restlessness and unease. 。The air is thick with the impending storm, like a building wind before a mountain rain. 。Xu Jinian wanted to raise his hand to count the days, but as soon as he exerted force with his arm, a searing pain shot through his shoulder blade. 。Frowned, and thought about it. 。Last month, this arm of mine was already broken by Xu Mingyu using a wood imbued with corrosive poison. He struck it through my skin, shattering the bone. 。Amongst all the suffering in this world, perhaps only art can truly alleviate it. 。

Xiong Jin Yan had once been revered as the Zhuge Liang of Bei Ming, respected by ten thousand people. He also held the title of Prince End's Consort. Who else in the world could have such prestige?

。It's ironic that we've come to this state. 。With a creak, the cell door swung open. A rare lamp was lit, and insects, snakes, rats, and ants scurried in panic at the light's touch. A few rats even ran directly over Xu Jinian's head. 。Xu Jinian let out an unhappy "Hey," After being neighbors for so long, couldn't he at least get some basic respect? 。Three years ago, I was broken to pieces, every bone shattered. The lower half was a mess of blurred flesh and white bone. In the summer heat, flies would swarm, buzzing incessantly. 。So I didn't even get to sleep, I just saw a few fluffy things running past from the blurry bottom at high speed. 。He has been trapped here by Xu Mingyu for three whole years. His appearance, neither human nor ghost, has also persisted for three years. 。But I guess this period is coming to an end soon. 。

At this point, if they do not fight back, then the Northern Ming Zhuge will be considered utterly incompetent.

。"Sister is truly talented, she can even talk to these filthy things." 。But then again, isn't sister now just as dirty as these things? 。"""The voice of a person sounded, uttering words of refined eloquence by my ear.""" 。Xu Jin Yan was too lazy to look up, knowing it was Xu Ming Yu. 。This cell is never lit, and the only time it's illuminated is when Xu Mingyu arrives. 。It seems Xu Mingyu has received a new punishment today. He's here, all excited and eager to torture someone. 。This little sister, born with a face of heavenly beauty, yet possesses the heart of a venomous serpent and crawling insects. 。Thinking about this, Xu Jinian shook his head. He couldn't insult his neighbor. Snakes, insects, rats, and ants were innocent. 。Xu Mingyu smiled, a light wind dancing across Tianzi Guo's face. She said, "My sister's son will be enthroned as Crown Prince tomorrow. I wonder what has become of my own child now, whether he has turned into just a mound of yellow soil." 。Xǔ Jǐnyán's heart pounded, but he remained silent, intently watching the ants inching their way up in the blurry light. His eyes shone brightly in the darkness. 。Your son being named Crown Prince? That will never happen. 。

Because Bei Ming is going to collapse

。Xu Jin'yan's nonchalant appearance immediately angered Xu Mingyu. Xu Mingyu stepped forward and slapped him across the face. 。Xu Jinyan's fallen corner, continue to watch ants <<< 。

Xu Mingyu grabbed his collar and angrily shouted, "Xu Jinyan, aren't you the resourceful Zhuge? Could you have calculated that this day would come?"

Xu Mingyu said these words, only then did Xu Jinyan take a look

。Yes, three years ago Xu Jinyan was still a clumsy Zhuge, almost becoming the Empress of all under heaven. 。Accompanying the fifth prince, I helped him seize power, eliminate his enemies, and did all sorts of evil things for him. 。

From Xu Jia's stupid eldest son, who was as clumsy as a pig, to Bei Ming's incompetent Zhuge Liang, he only wanted to be qualified to accompany the fifth prince Zhao Fei.

。Zhao Fei had also held his hand, and said softly, "Yaner, wait for me to ascend the throne, you will be my empress." 。At that time, his mind was clouded, and he couldn't even see the disdain and disgust hidden behind Zhao Fei's veiled words. 。Ten years ago, Zhao Fei was just a prince from the palace, an unknown and unassuming figure. At first glance, he was captivated by his face, gentle as jade. 。

I spared no effort to marry him and assist him in ascending the throne.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。But on the very second day of his ascension to the throne, he deposed his intended successor and imprisoned her in the Cold Palace on charges of adultery with a guard. He then made his own beautiful younger sister, Xu Mingyu, the empress. 。

The father was revered as the father-in-law of the country and granted the title of First Rank An Guogong, while his stepmother was bestowed the title of First Rank诰命夫人.

。The Xu family's prosperity and the national stability of Beiming were built step by step on tears. 。Xu Mingyu saw that she finally reacted, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Sister, Wang Ge Lao was raided yesterday, from the elder to the servants..." 。155 people 。Looking at Xu Jinian's widening eyes, Xu Mingyu's smile grew wider: "At the vegetable market, Lingchi" 。With a tear, Xu Jinian finally exploded with rage. The locked iron chains tightened cruelly around his wounds, the overwhelming pain having no effect. He didn't even frown, only staring fixedly at Xu Mingyu. 。Wang Ge Lao was the master who taught, step by step, turning Bei Ming's famous fool's daughter into a shrewd strategist like Zhuge Liang. 。He had not yet repaid the favor, but his teacher was killed in a massacre. 。Xu Jin Yan's eyes were bloodshot, he waved his broken limbs like a trapped animal. But he was bound tightly by iron chains, struggling desperately, shaking the chains. His wounds ripped open from the large movements, oozing fresh blood, but not harming Xu Ming Yu at all. 。Xu Mingyu was finally satisfied, looking at Xu Jinian and smiling: "Xu Jinian, don't you even look at yourself like this" 。Why do you think you deserve to sit on the throne of Queen? 。"Still Zhuge? You'll always be that fool!" Xu Mingyu vented her resentment from many years ago. Back then, the Xu family had two legitimate sons: the eldest, Xu Jinyan, was stupid and incompetent, while the second, Xu Mingyu, was as beautiful as a celestial being... 。All the praise and accolades belong to Xu Mingyu. 。One day, everything suddenly changed. Xu Jinian, who didn't know how he got the help of Wang Ge Lao, actually transformed from a foolish Xu family fool to Bei Ming's Zhuge Liang step by step. He went from the Fifth Prince's consort to the Duan Wangfei, and almost became the Empress. 。Fortunately, Xu Mingyu's beauty was such that with just a few smiles, Zhao Fei was hooked. 。Not only did he help the fool seize power, but after he had accomplished that, he deposed him. He also did this to please those who had given the fool authority. 。

Appearance, forever one's greatest capital

。

Xu Jinian, you may be incompetent, but you can scheme for the world, but you can't scheme a man's heart.

。The cell door was pushed open again. This time, it wasn't Xu Mingyu's slow and leisurely steps. Instead, hurried and panicked footsteps came from outside the cell. 。Xu Jinian narrowed his eyes, and the golden dragon robe came closer from afar, striding quickly. 。

Xu Jinian, hanging his head, smiled weakly. It seemed things were over.

。This is his first

face after he was

done for.

。Xu Mingyu saw Zhao Fei first startled, then subconsciously shielded Xu Jinyan, saying: "Your Majesty... how did you come?"Zhao Fei followed by a young man, that son handsome and beautiful, is the favored concubine of the empress. 。。

Xu Mingyu gritted her teeth secretly, while Xu Jinian watched with amusement.

。Lady Nali knew, from conversations with guards while she was imprisoned, that it was rumored she possessed both beauty and talent, deeply favored by Zhao Fei. In less than a year within the palace, she had been promoted to the position of Noble Consort. 。

Xu Mingyu these years whenever things go against her will, she would stay in the cell. Recently, it's been especially frequent, apparently, this Li Gui Fei deeply affected Xu Mingyu's status.

。

Xu Jinian glanced at Li Gui, and sure enough, she was the fragrance of the country.

。Xu Mingyu is no longer young, nearing thirty. Where can she compare to the radiant beauty of her youth? 。Moreover, in terms of beauty, Concubine Li Gui was not inferior to Xu Mingyu at all. 。Zhao Fei didn't even glance at Xu Mingyu, she rushed straight to Xu Jinian. When he saw Xu Jinian looking like half-human, half-ghost, he was taken aback. 。On the side, Li Guifei was also frightened and her face paled. She hid behind Zhao Fei and gently pulled at Zhao Fei's sleeve. 。Xu Jinyan looked at Xu Mingyu's face that was pale with anger, raised an eyebrow. This noble concubine really had some skills. 。

Xu Mingyu, how do you calculate a man's heart? Aren't there many people better at calculating than you?

。Zhao Fei was a bit surprised. He had given Xu Jinian to Xu Mingyu, but he didn't expect that Xu Mingyu, such a weak child, would be so ruthless. 。But he had no time to think about these things now. He roared, "Xu Jinian, how did the people of Dagan break through Juyong Pass? What on earth is going on?"Juyong Pass was the most important line of defense for Beiming. Once this pass was broken, Beiming would be finished. 。Xu Jinian strained his neck to look up, though his face had long been disfigured, his eyes still shone like polished glass: "Zhao Fei, you ask me what's wrong? I want to ask you what's wrong? For ten years, I, Xu Jinian, have given you my whole heart" 。I'll fight by your side, strategize for you, and stain my hands with blood for you. 。If you want military power, I'll go to my maternal grandfather's house and plead for help. If you need talent, I'll spend years of savings to connect you with them. Even if the Prince stands in your way, I'll scheme to have him beheaded. 。“I’ve done so much for you, what have you done for me?”

“The first thing you did after ascending the throne was abolish my position” 。Then allow Xu Mingyu to torment me like this. 。My great-grandfather's family was completely drained of any use to you, and then on a whim, you just found some excuse to massacre them all. 。My brother, a renowned general of one generation, is loyal and courageous. 。You have been framed with the charge of treason and are being killed. 。The teacher was loyal to the monarch and honest throughout his life, yet he was tortured to death by you. 。...and what about our daughter, Er'peiyu? She's only seven years old! How could you bear to give her away in exchange for peace with the Turks? 。Xu Jinyan said about her son, tears she could no longer hold back came out, after three years of suppressing them, they finally burst forth at this moment. 。Three years ago, when I was imprisoned, Pei Yu was still fine. At that time, I thought that even if Zhao Fei was ruthless, she wouldn't harm her own child. 。... underestimated Zhao Fei. 。

At a grand imperial banquet, the leader of the Turks took a liking to seven-year-old Peiyu. Zhao Fei had just ascended to the throne and, in order to avoid conflict with the Turks, readily agreed to the Turkic leader's request for Peiyu.

。

If it was not a relative, the age of this leader from the Turkic tribes who could have easily been Pei Yu's grandfather already had a queen.

。Simply put, it was a gift. Seven-year-old Peiyu, a princess by birth, became a plaything for the leader of the Turks, Le. 。...died after enduring unimaginable torture... 。Zhao Fei listened to Xu Jin's question, his face, as warm and jade-like, changed slightly, but he still said coldly: "Bitch, don't talk nonsense. I only ask you, how did the people of Great Qin break through Juyongguan?"Zhao Fei was extremely clear that the method used by the people of Great Qin to break through Juyongguan was exactly the same as Xu Jin's usual methods 。Xu Jinian laughed loudly, "Zhao Fei, don't forget, it was I who fought alongside you to win this empire!" 。I can elevate you to the top, and I can also bring you down. 。I can lift you as high as I want, and I can also make you fall as hard. 。As she spoke, a smile spread across her face, widening with each tear that fell. 。

Zhao Fei's world, was built with him.

。Know all the weaknesses of this dynasty and 。After two years, he trained an army of these vermin neighbors and spread all the information about the Beiming Machine that they had gleaned. 。Those confidants outside the prison walls, they relayed all this information to His Royal Highness, the peerless Prince of Great Qi. 。People say the Crown Prince of Great Qianyuan is an unparalleled and peerless man in history. Given all these, how could he possibly destroy Beiming? 。Zhao Fei spat out a few angry breaths, he kicked Xu Jin's mouth with his foot. Xu Jin couldn't feel the pain anymore, but blood still gushed from his mouth. He smiled in a strange and eerie way while holding blood in his mouth: "Zhao Fei, Xu Mingyu, die together with me." 。Zhao Fei and Xu Mingyu were shocked. Xu Mingyu was the first to shout angrily: "Xu Jinyan, you poisonous woman!"Poisonous woman?Xu Jinyan smiled. Perhaps so, but unfortunately, not poisonous enough. 。After falling to this point, he retaliated. 。If there is an afterlife, I will definitely make these people suffer one by one, a thousand cuts ten thousand cuts. 。Xu Jinian tilted his head, and a drop of poison from the seen-through vial fell onto his neck. 。This poison was concocted three years ago, but in order to witness with my own eyes the day Bei Ming falls, for these three years, I have endured unimaginable pain and torture, never once thinking of dying. 。Now, I'm finally free. 。

Xu Jinyan watched the gradual passing of his life, yet his eyes held a hatred and regret capable of destroying heaven and earth.

。If there is an afterlife, I will surely make you each suffer a thousand cuts ten thousand times over. 。At the very moment Xu Jin'yan breathed his last, panicked shouts echoed from outside his cell. 。"Your Majesty, Empress..." 。The people of Dayuan have stormed the capital. 。Zhao Fei was furious and glared fiercely at Xu Jinyan, but the moment she saw Xu Jinyan, she was so startled that... 。Xu Jinyan leaned against the filthy prison wall, his limbs broken and bleeding, his eyes wide open, his expression terrifying, like a demon had descended. 。

Indeed, he died with no peace in his heart.

。Outside the Bei Ming Imperial Palace, before thousands of soldiers and horses, a man on horseback led the way. He wore silver brocade embroidered with dark gold dragon patterns, and a black cloak billowed behind him in the wind as he rode forward. 。Her beauty was dazzling, but it paled in comparison to the radiance of a man's face. 。He had a noble bearing, with an air of sophistication that was unique and captivating. 。He looked at the Beiming Palace and said softly, "Has the owner of the letter been found?" "Returning to Your Highness, everyone in the Beiming Palace has been questioned, but no one matches..." 。"The crown prince of Dayan fell silent for a moment, his beautiful eyes dimming slightly. " 。Could it be that we were never destined to meet in this lifetime?The Crown Prince of Great Qian took out a letter from his bosom, and the graceful and delicate script leaped before his eyes. 。This letter was full of Bei Ming's schemes. Guided by this letter, he effortlessly destroyed Bei Ming. 。

Since he had accidentally gotten this letter, it had been hidden in his bosom for a whole year.

。

Since Bei Ming's country has been defeated, letters and correspondence are useless.

。Since it seems I can't meet the letter's author, I might as well destroy this letter. 。

As the crown prince of Dayan was about to make his move, his eyes fell upon the elegant and delicate characters, but his heart suddenly sank.

。After a moment's hesitation, he burst into laughter, his smile brilliant. 。Well, since you've been with me for a year, why not stay with me forever? 。"Zhao Fei and the Xu family, all slaughtered, cut into a thousand pieces, not even one less." 。Before the thousands of troops, an order was passed down: 。He did not forget the last line of the letter. 。Kill Zhao Fei and everyone from the Xu family for me, a thousand cuts, ten thousand cuts, not even one less. 。
