Jiang Liechen's lips curved into a cold smile. "No need to be so polite. I just want to see how muddle-headed that young emperor who can't distinguish right from wrong, who was bewitched by a beautiful woman, who inverted black and white, who wrongly accused loyal officials of treason, and who chased after you for six years, can be! "
Shunzhi said, "I have never had any dealings with Jiang Shengjun, let alone any conflicts. Why do you say that?"
Jiang Liechen laughed coldly. "You don't know? Fine, then I'll remind you. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, your Qing army was able to smoothly enter the pass and pacify the Central Plains, thanks to my Sacrifice Shadow School's help. Even if we didn't reward you based on your contributions in the future, I think it's your first time ascending the throne and you don't know the rules. Everyone also doesn't care about fame and fortune, so they won't argue with you. But you listened to Noble Consort Yun's instigation and turned hostile, directly accusing us of treason. I'm afraid the difference is too big, right? You destroyed my foundation, you're the mastermind and accomplice. I won't forgive you either. Sooner or later, I'll personally take your head! "
Shunzhi said, "You know the Sacrifice Shadow School's position in Jianghu. If we didn't do all kinds of bad things and offend the common people, we wouldn't have been attacked. "
Jiang Jianchen said, "Don't give me too much of that nonsense! The Qing Dynasty's imperial family has always been mercenary. When did they become so righteous? Since that's the case, why did you ask us to help you? Since you've identified them as treason, you should've minded your own business. Now you see that we've lost our value, and because we're too powerful, you're afraid we'll threaten your rule. That's why you hastily changed. If it weren't for this plan, just that Shen Shiyun crying and complaining to you, you might not have made up your mind. If you don't admit it, then I can only think of you as a muddle-headed emperor who submissively handed over his country for a beauty. "
Shunzhi heard that his words were inverted and didn't know which one to affirm. But in front of so many officials, how could he express his personal opinion too clearly? Borrowing his words, he said, "That's also one of the reasons. Our Qing Dynasty is the king of the Central Plains. The Han people are blindly xenophobic and too conservative in their thinking. We urgently need to establish our power. Now that we've eradicated the Devil Cult bandits, the response is very good. They know that our dynasty is wholeheartedly for the people, and that we've even eliminated their hidden for more than ten years... Indeed, from then on, the rebel army. dispersing.
. to................ to............................... If he had the time to lose soldiers and generals, he might as well focus on training his army, sweeping across the world, becoming invincible, and truly becoming an overlord. You are neglecting the essentials and focusing on trifles. In the end, you are inexperienced. None of your subordinates are willing to see you truly improve. No wonder you are so childish! . to kill..................... e. to.... to.........................
. "Shunzhi said," That's not it. We've always disliked using force to force things, unless the other party has already bullied us to the point where we have no other choice. We have indeed issued a strict order to kill you without question. But after hearing Tang Shaoshi's words, we've changed our opinion. Nowadays, talents are hard to find. How can we abandon the greater good for small benefits? That would be a true reversal of right and wrong. If Jiang Shengjun is willing to work for us, we'll definitely give you a high position and a generous salary. There were many misunderstandings in the past, so why not let bygones be bygones? "
Jiang Liechen sneered, "You make it sound so easy. You want to write off all the past grudges with just a few words of 'let bygones be bygones'? Is there such an easy thing in the world? Don't think that I'm as magnanimous as you. "
Shunzhi said, "Then what about the imperial court's military losses? Both sides have suffered casualties, but you should also understand that if this continues, you will be outnumbered in the end, and it will only end with your defeat. Today, we're willing to take the initiative to give you a way out. We've already given you enough face. Jiang Shengjun, please reconsider. Don't fail to appreciate our kindness. You must know that opportunities can't be missed. "
Jiang Liechen snorted. He was about to speak when an icy voice suddenly sounded, "Your Majesty, this person cannot be left alive! Among the common people, he is a source of calamity that everyone hates. If we pardon him at this time, it will only cause the common people to misunderstand and think that our dynasty has been colluding with him all along. At that time, not only will all the achievements that we have painstakingly built be completely wiped out, I am afraid that our prestige will also be completely destroyed. This demon's crimes are monstrous. If we don't punish him according to the law, it'll be difficult to give the people an explanation and the world won't be truly peaceful. There's no way to kill, so there's a way. It's right and proper! What's more, he's always been untrustworthy. Even if we temporarily agree to surrender to save our lives, he'll definitely regret it in the future. What the nation fears isn't external invasion, but internal parasites. It wasn't easy for us to deploy our troops. How can we easily withdraw with just a few words? Time waits for no one. Chenqie advocates acting according to the original plan and killing him decisively. "
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the speaker was Shen Shiyun. At this time, her upper body was slightly tilted, and her head was slightly tilted. Her long hair was scattered, covering half of her face to her shoulders. Her clothes were torn in several places. In addition to her originally beautiful clothes, a few spots of blood could be vaguely seen. Shunzhi was the most familiar with this situation. Because of this, he also felt fear. He asked tentatively, "Yuner, what's wrong? You … why are you in such a sorry state? "
Shen Shiyun was angry just now and blurted out to stop him without thinking. When she really attracted Shunzhi's attention, she remembered that she had lost her beauty. She was so scared that she turned around more than half of her body. She covered her face with her hands and sobbed, "Your Majesty … don't look. Chenqie is very ugly right now. But I only hope that you can remember my most beautiful appearance … "
Shunzhi heard that her words were vague, but it was even more ominous. He anxiously stepped forward and said, "Yuner, what's going on? Don't scare me … "Jiang Liechen moved a step to the side and crossed his arms to stop him. He said indifferently," I'll tell you. You've never really seen this woman clearly. Although she's your pillow, she's been sleeping with you for the past six years. She's made you suffer a lot. She's always been very ugly. It's not like it started today. Only by destroying her bright and beautiful skin can you see her more clearly. "
When Shunzhi heard him use the word "destroy" and saw with his own eyes Shen Shiyun's panic that she couldn't dodge in time, the confusion in his heart deepened. He said, "If Your Excellency's appearance isn't shameful, why do you have to wear a mask all day and swagger through the streets?"
Shen Shiyun said hatefully, "That's right! You're just a lowly species that can only curl up in a dark corner all your life, licking your wounds alone. No one will take a second look at you! No matter how jealous you are of others, you can't really become one with us. Everything you've done is nothing but meaningless resentment. "Jiang Liechen humphed coldly and said," Your mouth is poisonous enough. Be careful that you won't have any descendants in the future. "Shen Shiyun stared at him, but as soon as she met Shunzhi's eyes, she hurriedly looked away.
Jiang Liechen stared at her several times before slowly raising his hand. He pressed the mask on his face that had been worn for six years, then turned to Shunzhi and said with a faint smile, "My face was destroyed when I fought with the Hierarch in the past. He couldn't beat me, so in desperation he fought with his life on the line, wanting to drag me down to hell with him. The old Hierarch's power was limited, so he accidentally interrupted the poison of love and ruined my appearance. Do you … want to see? " Right now he was talking about it in front of everybody, but there was only pride in his words because he successfully killed the Hierarch, but he didn't feel any hatred because of his failure.
Shunzhi saw his fingertips clasped the edge of the mask, as if in the next moment he was going to lift this layer of barrier. His heart tightened for no reason. Everyone loves beauty, so toward ugly things, it was natural to avoid it. He hurriedly said, "No need, Zhen doesn't want to look for a scare."
Jiang Liechen laughed coldly and said, "You're all a bunch of cowards! Speaking of which, our Hierarch also has some history with you. Your family's ancestor was afraid that his own brother would conspire with him to fight over the world, so he didn't need to charge him with any crime and directly ordered his death. Later on he was forced to destroy his own appearance and conceal his identity, so that he could escape. Tell me, isn't this karma? In the past it was your family's ancestor who harmed his life, forcing him to wander from place to place, leaving his home. Now it's the younger generation fighting endlessly, and he still has to gamble his life. But this generation's strength is different, so it won't be the same as before. You'd better wash your necks and wait for your death. Let me tell you something else: First Jiaozhu harbored a grudge against you, he hated the house and its crow. Since the beginning of the Later Jin, he has treated the Manchurian Qing as his enemy as well. All day long he has been nagging me to overthrow the Imperial Family, to return the rule of the country to his hands. As a traitor who rebelled against the Hierarch and usurped the throne, the only thing I can do to compensate him is to do my best to fulfill his last wish. Therefore, I will do my best at all costs. "
Shunzhi had already bypassed him and walked to Shen Shiyun's side. He parted her hair and carefully examined the wound. He saw four hideous bloody scars that almost covered half of her face. His fingertips brushed past them, but they still hadn't completely healed. He felt a faint burning sensation when he touched them.
Shen Shiyun's face had been numb for a long time. Now she suddenly felt pain and couldn't help but frown. Shunzhi said with concern, "The injury is very serious. You must find an imperial physician as soon as possible." Jiang Liechen talked loudly, but unexpectedly he didn't get the slightest response. He was extremely embarrassed. He had always been the one to ignore others, but others had no choice but to ignore him. He clenched his teeth and said, "You dare not answer me?"
Shen Shiyun said softly, "The wound looks serious, but it's actually nothing more than a superficial wound. Chenqie is fine. Right now I don't feel any pain on my face. If I can't kill this demon as soon as possible, even if I ask an imperial physician to treat the wound, I won't be able to heal it. "
She turned half of her face around. Li Yijie saw these wounds and almost instantly his entire body turned into gunpowder. Right now he was about to be set on fire. He angrily said, "Seven Malevolent Demon, what wrong did you do? Why did you repeatedly hurt Yun 'er? Or was it because of An Yesun's matter? That was your own sin. Why should other people take the blame for your own mistake and pay with their lives for you? If you really care about him, you should slit your own throat and be buried with him. Let's take ten thousand steps back and say that you really care about An Yesun. Your feelings are real, but how could other people's feelings be fake? Everyone who was killed by you had relatives, friends, parents, wives, and children. How sad would they be? You single-handedly destroyed the Shadowless Mountain Villa. Even if you didn't eliminate evil for the world, it was still an eye for an eye. You repeatedly made things difficult for Yun 'er. You're simply petty. You don't have the slightest demeanor of a sect's master. You still dare to call yourself the most powerful person in the world? If you want to pursue something, just come at me. I'm not afraid of you! "
Jiang Liechen said, "You don't have to worry. Every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor. None of you can escape. Benzai will naturally find you to settle the account." Then he crossed his arms and sneered. He leisurely looked at Shunzhi and Shen Shiyun. He said, "Are you really that heartless? You won't even leave me a way out? "
Shen Shiyun coldly said, "What kind of end do you want? The only way out is death. "
