Pang Xiao knew that he was not destined to live a completely ordinary life because there were too many people following him. Everything he did was even more out of his control. He had to consider the feelings and gains of more people.
Li Qitian had already made up his mind to take his life. If he did not become strong and ascend to that position, then he would not be able to protect the people he wanted to protect!
As for how much trouble it would bring him if he ascended to that position, Pang Xiao no longer cared. He was destined not to live a carefree life. As long as the people he cared about could be safe, as long as Qin Yining could accompany him, perhaps the rest of his life was still worth looking forward to.
Perhaps Qin Huaiyuan had already considered this when he said those words. Otherwise, he would not have convinced everyone to agree not to destroy the Tatan and to preserve the country. Perhaps he was also afraid that he would fail in Da Zhou and have to return to Xi Yue. He was not satisfied with just staying in a corner, so he treated the Tatan as a future reserve.
Everyone discussed for a while and decided that they would still fight if necessary, but there was no need to destroy the country.
As for Si Qin, Lu Heng, and the others, Pang Xiao ordered people to prepare prison carriages and put them in them. They would be paraded through the streets and directly transported back to the capital.
"Let them enjoy the glory."
"Yes." Huzi agreed and went to give the orders with a smile.
Lu Heng, Bian Ruohan, Lu Wenru, and the others were taken out of the tent where they were imprisoned. As soon as they stepped out, they were greeted by a gust of cold wind that made everyone shiver.
Bian Ruohan muttered in a low voice, "What are they trying to do? They can't torture people like this. If they want to kill or cut into pieces, they should at least give us a definite answer. "
Lu Heng's heart was like dead ashes. He was too lazy to argue with Bian Ruohan. He only lowered his head and looked at his hands that had turned purple either because they were tied up too tightly or because of the cold. He lowered his eyes and laughed self-mockingly.
He was the head of a family. He had glory and wealth. Now, he was going to be paraded through the streets?
He was paraded through the streets, cursed by the people, and thrown filth at him. If persevering was the only way to survive, that would be fine. However, as soon as he arrived at the Capital, what awaited him was still death. With Li Qitian's vengeful nature, his crime of luring the Tatan into the Pass was already unforgivable.
As for whether or not he had coveted the treasure, and whose hands it was in, there was no way to verify it now, so it was no longer important. Time couldn't be turned back, and it couldn't be returned to the beginning.
The sound of wheels creaking could be heard from afar. Huzi and his men were driving the prison wagons over.
The height of the wooden cage was just right for a person to squat down or stand up straight. His hands and head were fixed to the roof of the prisoner carriage. He would be tortured like this on the way back to the capital, and then he would be killed after he returned to the capital …
The future was dark, so what was there for him to hold on to?
"Come, come, come. Get in the car. Everyone gets one car. Don't force anyone." Huzi shouted.
In the other tent, Si Qin was also chased out and forced onto the prison wagon. Following him were Si Qin's advisors and generals.
When it was the Lu Family's turn, everyone else was crying. Bian Ruohan was choked with sobs and sobs. "I'm just a weak woman. I've never suffered before. Why do I have to take this carriage and suffer like this?!"
Huzi heard this and laughed coldly. "There's no such thing as unbearable suffering in this world. It's just that you're not as good as others." He knew that the Princess Consort had been paraded through the streets in the Capital.
At that time, the tenacity that Wang Fei had displayed had even moved them. When mentioning Wang Fei, who wouldn't give her a thumbs up in admiration? Compared to Qin Yining, Bian Ruohan was nothing in his eyes.
"Go, get in the carriage." Huzi and his men urged everyone.
Lu Heng pursed his lips and followed Jinghu Wei slowly forward.
His eyes looked at the prison wagon, and then at the wooden wheels of the carriage. His eyes gradually changed from confusion to determination, and there was even a hint of ruthlessness in them.
He gritted his teeth. Suddenly, his eyes widened and he charged forward.
No one had expected Lu Heng to suddenly charge forward. Jinghu Wei hurriedly reached out to stop him, but it was too late.
Lu Heng's head hit the sharp corner of the carriage. Blood immediately spurted out.
"Master!" Lu Wenru shouted. He wanted to rush over in a panic. However, he had just been locked into the prison wagon and could only shout.
Bian Ruohan and Lu Heng had been walking side by side. She didn't expect Lu Heng to suddenly kill himself. In this moment, she felt like the sky was falling and the earth was splitting. Everything in front of her was spinning. She was so disgusted that she vomited.
Huzi paled and went forward to check. He saw Lu Heng lying on the ground. His body would occasionally twitch. His eyes were lifeless as he looked at the sky. He was exhaling more than he was inhaling.
Someone quickly reported this to Pang Xiao.
Pang Xiao immediately rushed over. He saw that the surroundings were silent. Only Lu Heng was lying in a pool of blood. He strode forward and knelt down next to him.
"Why did you do this?"
Lu Heng's eyes turned. He didn't respond to Pang Xiao's words.
He lay on the cold ground and looked at the pale white sky. All the sounds around him gradually weakened. All the colors slowly disappeared. All that was left in his eyes was a patch of gray.
All the glory and disgrace he had experienced in his life flashed past his eyes.
There was a voice asking him if he had any regrets or if he had any regrets.
The corners of Lu Heng's mouth twitched. He forced a smile. Because he seemed to see Qin Yining's figure in the pale white sky.
Of course he had regrets.
But he had no regrets.
His eyes slowly closed. Blood flowed from his mouth, nose, and eyes.
Pang Xiao reached out to check his breathing. He sighed and stood up.
"He's already gone to the Lu residence. Prepare the coffin and send him back to the capital. "
"Yes."
Huzi's mood was a bit gloomy. He didn't do the job Wang Ye assigned to him well. He didn't keep an eye on Lu Heng and allowed him to kill himself.
Lu Heng's subordinates, led by Lu Wenru, all began to cry. Bian Ruohan watched as Lu Heng was carried away. He screamed, "Come back, come back! What am I going to do if you die? You coward, you coward! You closed your eyes and kicked your legs. You didn't care about me anymore! You let me down! Lu Heng, you let me down! Come back to life! Tell me you forgot about that b * tch before you die! "
Pang Xiao cast a sidelong glance at the hooting woman. It was her who made things difficult for his Sister Yi. She even slandered her.
Pang Xiao ordered in a low voice, "Gag her mouth. Since she's Mrs. Lu, she won't live in the Lu residence anymore. Let his wife take her place and parade her through the streets. "
Bian Ruohan screamed, "No! You can't do this to me! What right do you have? "
"What right do I have?" Pang Xiao sneered. He pointed at Bian Ruohan and said in a low voice, "Because you're Mrs. Lu. You enjoy the advantages that come with being Mrs. Lu."
"But I'm just a weak woman. Why should I take her place and give it to you? What are you trying to do? "
Pang Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head. He looked at Bian Ruohan with eyes full of mockery.
