Chapter 245 You go
Chapter 245 You go
The carriage bumped along the deserted official road, and the surrounding scenery gradually changed from prosperous to desolate.
Rong Su clutched her dress tightly, her brows furrowed, her eyes occasionally sweeping over Shen Fengyu who was resting with his eyes closed, her heart filled with doubts.
The setting sun was as red as blood, making his outline look exceptionally cold and hard, and his deep eyes hid unspeakable secrets.
Outside the car, the wind was blowing wildly, rolling up layers of yellow sand, like a dim and heavy scroll, slowly spreading between the sky and the earth, carrying an indescribable haze, as if it was nature's silent warning, foreshadowing an unknown and violent storm, quietly brewing, and about to sweep across this vast land like a beast.
Rong Su's heart also rose to her throat, and an indescribable worry spread quietly throughout her body like ice.
"Are you nervous?" Shen Fengyu suddenly opened his gloomy eyes, looked at her, and asked her in a hoarse voice.
Rong Su clutched her dress tightly, pretending to be calm and natural, and said in a cold voice: "Shen Fengyu. Why do you have to take me away? Do you like me that much?"
Shen Fengyu stared at her in quiet silence, who knew how long it lasted. Then, he lowered his head and smiled coldly. Was this smile mocking her, or something else?
"Rong Su. I did like you, but that was in my previous life."
After saying this, his eyes were fixed on her face, as if he wanted to get something from her face.
Rong Su didn't expect that he would take the initiative to reveal to her that he was reborn, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Shen Fengyu looked at her, his voice low and cold, like the whisper of an evil spirit: "Sure enough. You knew it a long time ago. I noticed before that you are completely different from the Rong Su I knew in my previous life, including Rong Yingxin. You have all changed. Until I heard Rong Yingxin occasionally mention some system."
"At that time, I was wondering what that thing was. Now from your expression, it seems that you know about such things, right?" He stared at her with a sinister smile.
Rong Su really didn't like Shen Fengyu looking at her with such disgusting eyes, but she was controlled by him now and had to endure it.
"If I'm not mistaken, you don't like me at all. You took me away just to make Aqing anxious." She calmly analyzed Shen Fengyu's current behavior.
Shen Fengyu narrowed his eyes, the smile on his face did not change, but became more and more perverted.
"Yes, you are right. I just want to make Shen Peiqing anxious, make him panic, and let him understand that I will not let him get two things that I don't have at the same time. Since he wants the country, he must be prepared to lose the woman he loves most."
As he said this, his eyes flashed with an unprecedented madness.
Rong Su frowned and cursed in his heart: Madman!
Suddenly, Shen Fengyu stopped smiling and stared at her.
When he looked at her like that, Rong Su leaned back a little in fear, holding the hem of her skirt with her hands, and was on guard against him.
Shen Fengyu seemed to not care about her vigilance towards him. Instead, he looked very happy. He stretched out his hand, traced her outline in the air, and then had a disgusting look of enjoyment on his face.
"After today, maybe I will never see you again, and you will never see Shen Peiqing again. So, Xiao Su, let me draw your appearance carefully."
Rong Su clenched her fingers. She understood what Shen Fengyu meant. He wanted to kill her.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly accelerated. Rong Su lost her balance and fell forward. Shen Fengyu reached out and grabbed her. He sneered and said, "I'm not going to kill you yet, so sit still."
As he spoke, he roared coldly outside: "What's going on outside?"
"Master! Shen Peiqing is chasing us!"
When Rong Su heard this, a light flashed in his eyes.
Shen Fengyu's eyes widened slightly, and then he noticed Rong Su's expression. His eyes immediately became cold. He grabbed Rong Su's hand and pulled hard. Rong Su felt a sharp pain and gasped.
"You sent him a signal."
Rong Su struggled, but Shen Fengyu was so strong that she couldn't break free. She could only sneer at him and said, "I can't just sit there and wait to die after being captured by my enemy, can I?"
Shen Fengyu's face darkened visibly, but soon, the evil smile on his face returned. He stared at her, and a chill ran down his spine.
"Rong Su. Although the poison in your body has been cured, the residual poison, plus the method you used to cure it, must have been very costly, right? Haha, you agreed to come with me, which actually means you have made some kind of plan, right?"
He suddenly leaned in close to look at her, sneering, his eyes filled with sinister light, as if he had seen through her thoughts.
Rong Su was slightly startled and stared at Shen Fengyu: "Can you treat?"
Shen Fengyu twisted his lips in disdain, "That's all thanks to Bai Zhu. If he hadn't devoted all his efforts to teach me, I wouldn't be able to do it. It's just that he's too eager for quick success and instant benefits, which is an eyesore to me."
Hearing this, Rong Su had already anticipated Bai Zhu's fate.
He raised his hand and wanted to touch Rong Su's face, but she saw it and immediately dodged.
A dark look flashed across Shen Fengyu's eyes. He suddenly pinched her chin and forced her to look straight at him.
"Don't forget, Shen Peiqing's life is still in my hands. Even if I want to commit suicide, I can still drag him with me. But, I don't like going to hell with him. I like going to hell with you. Do you understand what I mean?"
Rong Su felt a sharp pain in her chin and frowned. Listening to Shen Fengyu's threat, she understood what he meant. She clenched the hem of her skirt, and then let go.
She looked at him coldly and hatefully: "Let me go."
Shen Fengyu didn't let go. He stared at her closely, his tone a little harsh: "You didn't answer me."
"I will give you what you want." Rong Su's heart was filled with immense anger, but now she had to give in for him. In fact, Shen Fengyu was right. She knew her own body.
Before, Aqing said that doctors don’t treat themselves, which is actually true.
Originally, she used some kind of poison recipe to force the poison out of her body by using poison to counter poison.
But it was only a temporary solution and not a cure for the disease. The poison had been in her body for half a year and had already corroded her internal organs.
The fact that I can still live like a normal person now is just a last hurrah.
She knew that she didn't have much time left, and when she learned that Shen Peiqing wanted to make her the queen, she was moved and sad.
Because she couldn't stay with him for much longer.
But I still want to spend the remaining time with him.
But she never expected that Shen Fengyu was not dead yet. He used Aqing's life to threaten her, so she had no choice but to give in. She didn't want anything to happen to him.
Shen Fengyu got the answer he wanted, let go of Rong Su's chin, and then smiled coldly and evilly.
"Have we reached our destination?"
He asked the outsider, and someone answered him soon.
"Master, we've arrived."
Rong Su listened and couldn't help but feel puzzled. At this time, the carriage seemed to have stopped.
A gust of wind blew up the car curtain. She looked out and was shocked. They had come to the edge of a cliff!
destination.
A terrible thought flashed through her mind, and Rong Su suddenly looked at Shen Fengyu, only to see him looking at her with a smug and evil look.
At this moment, Rong Su had already thought of something. She asked coldly, "Did you find out a long time ago that I had left a signal for A-Qing and deliberately let him chase me?"
Shen Fengyu suddenly smiled and clapped his hands for her, looking as if he admired her: "It seems that you are still very smart. After all, you are the woman I once fell in love with."
really!
Rong Su clenched his fists, otherwise he would not have gotten on the carriage later. It was probably to prevent her from giving Shen Peiqing a signal again, and at the same time to monitor whether she had discovered his plan.
Now she was right. He deliberately lured Shen Peiqing to find her, and then chose such a cliff. What exactly did he want to do!
Seeing Rong Su looking at him with a defensive look, Shen Fengyu suddenly smiled innocently: "Don't look at me like that. I was so kind as to let you give Shen Peiqing the signal and let him chase you here. Shouldn't you thank me? Otherwise, you will never have the chance to see him again."
Rong Su said angrily, "Shen Fengyu, what exactly do you want to do? You said you wouldn't hurt Shen Peiqing!"
Shen Fengyu's smile suddenly disappeared, leaving only cruelty and cold-bloodedness.
"When did I ever say such a thing? Haha, Rong Su, you are a little naive. You actually believed the words of an enemy. Or do you still have some trust in me in your heart?"
His gaze suddenly became a little different, and he looked at her with a slightly lower tone.
Rong Su clenched his fists tightly and never relaxed.
"He is your biological brother."
She was indeed naive, thinking that this person would at least have some credibility. She was wrong!
Shen Fengyu laughed crazily: "Brother? At this time, Rong Su, are you still thinking about this? As expected, even if you were reborn, you would still be that ridiculously naive person!"
He suddenly grabbed her and pulled her outside. Rong Su couldn't struggle at all and could only let him hold her down. Just as she went down, she saw Shen Peiqing arriving with Shi Tou and some of the imperial guards.
Shen Peiqing's eyes were as sharp as torches as he rushed over and saw the dangerous scene of Shen Fengyu holding Rong Su hostage.
His heart suddenly tightened, a trace of anger and anxiety flashed in his eyes, fine beads of sweat were faintly visible on his forehead, his fists were clenched, and his knuckles turned white from excessive force.
Seeing this, Shen Fengyu curled up a smug smile, which was full of sinisterness and provocation, as if everything was under his control.
He grabbed Rong Su's throat, forcing her close to him, using her as a shield. His eyes revealed endless mockery and provocation towards Shen Peiqing, as if to say, "Now the person you love most is in my hands, what can you do to me?"
Shen Peiqing raised his sword in anger and pointed it at Shen Fengyu: "Shen Fengyu, as long as you release Xiao Su, I can spare your life."
Shen Fengyu laughed wildly: "Hahaha! Do I need you to spare my life? Shen Peiqing, the winner is the king, the loser is the enemy. I understand this principle, but I am very unwilling to accept it. Why did I fail? Is it because I am weak? No, I am not weak, or is it because I am not ruthless enough? No, I think about it over and over again, and I can only think of one answer."
When he looked at Shen Peiqing's face, he hated it so much that he felt as if strong liquor had been poured into his wound.
"Because of this woman. Because of her, I failed. I shouldn't let my guard down for her. Rong Su, am I right?" Shen Fengyu lowered his eyes, looked at her, and made an analysis with a sneer.
Rong Su glared at him fiercely, ignored him, and did not look at Shen Peiqing, choosing to remain silent.
Shen Fengyu seemed to be having fun, laughing wildly and happily. He looked at Shen Peiqing with a dark face over there, and felt relieved.
"Shen Peiqing, do you think you can get your woman back by chasing after her? I won't let you get her back so easily."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of men in black holding arrows suddenly appeared from all directions.
Seeing this scene, Rong Su's worry came true. Her heart tightened and she anxiously wanted to shout at Shen Peiqing, asking him to leave quickly.
But Shen Fengyu pinched her arm with force, as if to warn her.
Rong Su understood what Shen Fengyu wanted her to do, but she was not the kind of person who would be easily manipulated.
She forced herself to calm down and looked at Shen Peiqing who had already started to fight hard. He seemed to be looking at her and was injured as a result. Seeing this scene, her heart ached.
"I can do whatever you ask. Don't hurt him. That's all I ask."
Shen Fengyu narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile: "What qualifications do you have to negotiate terms now?"
Rong Su sneered, glanced back, and then stared at him: "You can use poison, don't forget that I can too. Also, even if you searched all the poisons on me, don't I have any backup plan?"
When Shen Fengyu heard this, a hint of alertness suddenly appeared in his eyes and his smile froze.
It was just a moment of thought, and Shen Fengyu suddenly smiled again, as if his mood had improved.
"Okay, as long as you say so to Shen Peiqing." He suddenly lowered his head and approached her, whispering something in her ear, his eyes looking at Shen Peiqing provocatively.
After Shen Peiqing knocked down several men in black, he widened his eyes. His gaze pierced through the flying arrows and the numerous obstructions of the men in black, and was fixed on the closely pressed figures of Shen Fengyu and Rong Su.
His lips were tight, and the muscles on his face were trembling slightly due to excessive tension. Besides anger, his eyes also flashed with deep determination and unquestionable dominance, like an enraged lion, chopping down all the enemies attacking him from all directions.
But the number of enemies cannot be underestimated. Even though he brought a lot of people, both sides were in a stalemate.
Shen Peiqing's eyes instantly became as sharp as a knife, and there seemed to be flames dancing in his pupils. He paused suddenly, and his movements became slow due to anger and worry.
Sweat dripped down his resolute chin, and every drop was like the anxiety churning in his heart.
After hearing Shen Fengyu's plan, Rong Su bit her lip and couldn't help but clench her fists again.
"Hesitation? Then Shen Peiqing must die." Shen Fengyu sneered and threatened her to make a decision.
Rong Su's clenched fists slowly loosened. She had already made up her mind. She looked at Shen Fengyu coldly and said, "Tell your people to stop."
Looking at Shen Peiqing, who had suffered a lot of injuries, Shitou was also injured, and the imperial guards he brought with him also suffered heavy losses.
Everyone Shen Fengyu brought with him was a martial arts master, and they seemed to be assassins. No wonder the imperial guards were no match for them.
"Stop." Shen Fengyu curled his lips and raised his hand.
At this moment, both sides stopped and focused their eyes on Shen Fengyu and Rong Su.
Shen Peiqing held the blood-stained sword in his hand, staring at Shen Fengyu with a cold and sharp gaze.
Under Shen Fengyu's repeated warning, Rong Su had no choice but to look Shen Peiqing in the face and said to him in words that even she herself felt were cruel: "Shen Peiqing, go away. I've thought about it, and I don't want to be your queen. In the past six months, I've realized that the person I like is Fengyu."
Shen Peiqing suddenly seemed to be frozen, looking at her in disbelief, his lips trembling slightly.
"What did you say?"
