Seeing Zhu Houzhao staring at him, Liu Jin was really frightened. He was stuttering and didn't know what to say. He was just a vague person and couldn't say a word for a long time. Later, his paralyzed brain thinking was almost collapsed.

On the other hand, Li Dongyang saw Liu Jin's difficulties and was still calm and calm. He said, "Your Majesty, I and Eunuch Liu followed the army to rescue Jinzhou. On the way, I encountered the elite of Tatars. The Tatars surrounded us and killed us wantonly. The new army was defeated. Fortunately, more than a dozen guards protected me and Eunuch Liu for luck in the chaos. The old minister and Eunuch Liu were worried about Qinglong, so they rushed back desperately, wanting... want..."

Liu Jin couldn't help but look at Li Dongyang. He knew very well that Li Dongyang was telling lies, and that whatever ran out of the chaos was all nonsense.

But he dared not refute and didn't dare to say anything. He knew very well that he could not make any other explanations besides this, because the truth could never be said. Otherwise, with His Majesty's temper, would he still have life?

So he had to bow to the ground and remained silent.

Zhu Houzhao's face had changed, and her already tired face looked very pale. Then she couldn't help staring at Liu Jin seriously and said, "Parent Liu, what he said is true?"

Liu Jin looked up at Zhu Houzhao's hideous face and shivered again in fear. Why didn't he know that if the truth was revealed at this time, he would be dead.

But don't tell the truth?

If Ye Chunqiu was really wiped out, no, the new army would have wiped out all the troops. The opponent's combat power was so disparate. Besides, that place was dead, so...so... no one could escape to expose this lie anyway. So, even if it was a lie, what's the point? As long as there was no way to expose the lie, the final thing was the fact!

Liu Jin finally chose to nod.

The next moment, Zhu Houzhao took a step back as if unacceptable, and her mind was stunned.

These two people, one is a cabinet minister and the other is a companion who grew up with them. Of course, Zhu Houzhao believed them and never believed that they dared to deceive themselves.

So……

Zhu Houzhao thought of a more important question and asked anxiously: "So, where is Ye Chunqiu? Did you see Ye Chunqiu break out of the siege?"

Yes, have you seen it?

Li Dongyang thought to himself, in that place, as long as the new army is wiped out, there is no place to run. No matter how fast you run, can there be any Tatar horses?

Without further thought, Li Dongyang said seriously: "Your Majesty, Duke Zhenguo, I am afraid he has died in his country. I have seen a Tatar man chopped off his head..."

The picture is bloody and almost makes people unable to imagine it. Zhu Houzhao even feels a little unable to breathe.

Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt powerless, but she tried hard to look at Liu Jin again. With the last glimmer of hope in her eyes, she looked at Liu Jin with a tense face and said, "Is it...yes?"

But Liu Jin was so distressed in his heart, Li Dongyang, you looked so arrogant before, you really dared to tell any lie.

When Li Dongyang said lies, he really didn't make any drafts. It just looked at the regret that appeared on his face, as if it was true.

Liu Jin felt very sad and frightened, but finally sighed silently and said, "At that time, the war was in chaos, I was scared, and I was almost scared to death. Has anyone cut off the head of the Duke of Zhenguo? I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I just heard someone shouting, "Be defeated, be defeated, be defeated, besides... I am gone."

Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao obviously couldn't have any fantasies anymore. He suddenly burst into tears and suddenly burst into tears, saying with a sad cry: "He... he is gone? He is here for me. If it weren't for my nonsense, I had to go to Datong, how could he have made such a bad move? How could he be crazy, fake imperial edicts, go out of seclusion, and go to the decisive battle with the Tatars? I am confused, I deserve to die..."

People with this temperament rarely cry. Even if their eyes are red, they try their best to restrain themselves. He always claims to be a real man, a good man, and a great hero. Even if a hero wants to shed, he will still shed blood. How can he cry? So no matter what he is inside, he can always restrain himself and never let others see his soft side. Therefore, everyone's impression of Zhu Houzhao has always been heartless.

But now... Zhu Houzhao actually cried like a precious person who had lost something, and even shocked the earth.

He covered his face with his hands, and countless flowing water flowed out of his fingers. This cry made Liu Jin feel more and more serious about the problem, but he didn't dare to come out. He just crawled on the ground, his heart was full of ups and downs.

Li Dongyang was very cold in his heart, and even felt that Zhu Houzhao was too unscrupulous. His Majesty cried for a jester. This was not the way the Saint King was, but he still looked heartbroken. However, there was no turmoil in his heart. If there was no future, there would be immediate worries. What he was thinking about now was that a world without Ye Chunqiu. Without Ye Chunqiu, what should he do next and what should he do to seek his greatest benefit. This... is what Li Dongyang is most concerned about now.

Zhu Houzhao's crying alarmed the store owner.

There was a knock on the door outside, and a friend shouted outside: "Celebrity, guest official, what happened?"

No one responded to the call outside.

Zhu Houzhao was still crying like rain. When he put down his hand, his whole face was covered with tears and snot. The tears in his eyes were still uncontrollable. It fell like rain. He said in his mouth: "It's all my fault... it's all my fault. If it weren't for this, how could it be today? Everything was my fault. It's my fault. It's me who was too willful and too nonsense. It was me who lied to Chunqiu. If I could keep my promise to him obediently and stay in the capital, I would never be like this. How can I... how can I be worthy of him, my parents, wife and children now..."

Qian Qian, who was standing beside him, had a tragic expression. In any case, he and Ye Chunqiu were both close friends. Now, when he heard the bad news about him, Qian Qian didn't believe it at first, but when he realized that even Li Dongyang and Liu Jin were swearing, he believed it without doubt.
