Chapter 210 The General Doesn’t Want Power, He Just Wants to Fall in Love 02
The boy was wearing simple plain clothes. He was really thin. The sleeves of the clothes were empty at the wrists. He had his hair pinned up with a wooden hairpin. His eyes were full of vigilance, like a vigilant wolf cub.
Duan Ci's heart was broken when he saw his wife like this. He couldn't imagine what he had gone through.
He put his slender and well-proportioned fingers on the mask on his face and took it off, fearing that it would scare his wife. His stunning face was revealed, so beautiful that it made people dazed.
The wind blew, and the red silk wrapped around the black hair fluttered. The young general's sharp eyebrows softened, and with a smile, he said to him:
"Don't be afraid, we don't kill people casually. But you still have to stay with me now, we need to confirm your identity."
"Yeah." Qi Jin lowered his eyes and responded softly. The indiscernible expression in his eyes was covered as he analyzed the current situation.
He was a hostage sent to Beisheng by Da Qi. Now Beisheng was destroyed and conquered by Da Qi.
Duan Ci was a young and promising general of the Great Qi, and Qi Jin had also heard of his reputation.
He also knew that the current emperor's ascension to the throne was thanks to Duan Ci, and that their relationship was very special.
He raised his eyes, and saw Duan Ci's figure in his dark eyes. He had no idea what Duan Ci would do after knowing his identity.
Will he be killed? After all, the new emperor was suspicious, and he had killed all the princes who had fought with him for the throne and those who had some ambitions.
He is also the prince of Da Qi and has the right to inherit the throne.
Qi Jin touched his deceptive face and thought about the probability of this. The coldness in his eyes faded, making him look very harmless.
After the soldiers of Da Qi cleared the palace of Bei Sheng and came back to report, Duan Ci also learned of Qi Jin's identity.
He looked at Qi Jin in surprise, then saluted him.
"Your Highness, Duan Ci greets His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince."
He took the lead in saluting, and others followed suit.
"No courtesy at all."
The young man's cold and indifferent voice sounded, and he was not cowardly in front of so many people.
Even though he has been suppressed for many years, the unique aura of the royal family is still there.
Duan Ci looked up at his thin figure, frowning slightly, with an imperceptible fierceness in his eyes.
"How dare Bei Sheng treat His Highness like this?"
The pain in his eyes was not concealed.
Qi Jin knew what he was talking about. Her peach blossom eyes, which were gentle yet distressed, were like a spring of fine wine, clear and clean, yet also intoxicating.
Qi Jin's heart was moved, she thought he was really handsome. If those peach blossom eyes were tinged with lust, who knows what a beautiful scene it would be.
The people of Beisheng treat all the hostages sent by other countries equally badly.
Qi Jin also knew the bad character of those people, so he was very silent and tried to reduce his presence as much as possible. That's why he was not often beaten, but his food, clothing and other expenses were always withheld.
After Duan Ci learned about Qi Jin's experiences over the years from the system, he did not hesitate to avenge his wife and personally tortured those who had bullied Qi Jin and allowed him to survive the war.
The soldiers guarding the place were a little scared by the screams and wondered what happened to the general today?
Although their general looks like a fierce and serious person, he is actually quite gentle.
To make the general carry out the execution himself, those people in Beisheng must have done something excessive.
Thinking of the Ninth Prince who was sent to Beisheng as a hostage today, they probably knew the reason. They were venting their anger on behalf of His Highness.
They didn't think much about it. Qi Jin was from Da Qi, and mistreating him was equivalent to not taking Da Qi seriously. When Duan Ci did this, they all thought he was protecting the dignity of the country.
When Duan Ci came out, the smell of blood came out with him. His face was grim, making him look fierce and murderous, like an evil ghost who had killed countless people.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers on guard stood in a military posture, not daring to breathe.
Only after he left did they relax and take a look at the situation in the cell.
When they saw the scene inside, they were shocked. It was truly a life worse than death.
Using a long whip dipped in salt water was child's play. Duan Ci simply used all the tortures.
Not only that, he also had them hung by their lives and continued to torture them.
After Duan Ci avenged his wife, he went to take a hot bath.
I was covered in blood from the battle today, and I just went to the dungeon, so the smell is even stronger.
In order not to stink his wife, he took a bath first and asked someone to add some flower petals.
He received the plot while taking a bath.
[The original owner Duan Ci was a young general of the Great Qi Kingdom. He grew up with the protagonist Qi Zui.
Qi Zui was the sixth prince of Da Qi. Because his biological mother was just a palace maid who succeeded in getting into the emperor's bed, he was not favored and was often bullied.
Although the original owner was good at martial arts, he was a very gentle person under the influence of his father.
He couldn't stand those people bullying Qi Zui, so he helped him, and after that the two of them became inextricably linked.
Qi Zui was very ambitious. He wanted to sit on the throne of the emperor, so he tried to win over the original owner to his side.
As the two supported each other and walked towards that position together, the original owner gradually fell in love with Qi Zui.
In the chaos of the princes fighting for the throne, he spared no effort to help Qi Zui take that position.
I thought that with their relationship, even if they couldn't be together, they could still get along well, but emperors have always been suspicious by nature since ancient times.
The original owner's family was powerful and had a high reputation among the people.
Due to many reasons, Qi Zui did not trust the original owner and was always afraid that he would betray him. However, before he could find a way to eliminate the hidden danger of the original owner, news came from the border that there was an invasion by foreign enemies. 】
