Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1654
"Is there really no one else but you?"

Ying Xun was swept up in the air by the strong wind, and his internal organs were all messed up. Hearing these words, his head suddenly buzzed.

Really, no one else?

He floated in mid-air, staring blankly at his palm.

The Emperor Taizu had no heir, his father Ying Su and uncle Ying Hao were not descended from the direct descendant, but because they only had two sons, in the Ying family genealogy, both of them were regarded as the direct descendants by default.

Great Qin was created by Emperor Taizu, and the person who can inherit the throne must be the descendant of Emperor Taizu's blood.

His father had only one son, and his uncle Ying Hao had only one son, Ying Hanri.

Ying Hanri is already the former King of Qin, and he is the only one left in the clan who is qualified to inherit the throne.

Unless Ying Han had a son first.

Not to mention whether the belly of the former Queen of Qin is male or female, it is impossible for the ministers of the former Qin to pin their declining national fortunes on an unborn child.

Ying Hanri's seven years of experience in governing the country have fully demonstrated that he is not suitable to be king.

So it stands to reason that Daqin's heir is only himself, which is beyond doubt.

Ying Xun grew up listening to this set of remarks since he was a child, and he never thought of other possibilities.

None of the ministers of the former Qin Dynasty thought so.

Only at this time, Ying Xun suddenly remembered.

Apart from him and Ying Hanri, there is actually another person on the jade plate of their generation's genealogy.

Only, that person is not on the same page as them.

The emperor system is the system, the seniority is the order, and men and women are different.

That person's name can only be written on the back.

Thinking of the name written on the back of Ying Hanri on the jade plate, Ying Xun's heart beat violently.

Through the fierce wind, he looked at the silver-haired boy standing not far from him.

"you……"

Ying Xun opened his mouth, his voice dry, "It's not just me, what do you mean by...?"

Is that what he thought it meant?

Is it the possibility that no courtier would think about, the possibility that will not be recognized and accepted by the world at all?

The silver-haired boy looked at him silently, without saying a word.

Ying Xun spoke with difficulty, "What do you mean...?"

The silver-haired boy watched him quietly, "I don't mean anything, it just depends on how you understand what I mean."

"Your path should be decided by you."

"There are some things you should understand."

Ying Xun froze in the wind.

"Be brave after knowing your shame," the silver-haired boy said lightly, "It doesn't matter whether you are the only one, but if you only regard yourself as the only one, then that is the real danger."

When Ying Xun heard this, he felt a hard hit in his heart.

Back then on the ice cliff, he acquiesced to Huo Zhan's sacrifice because he regarded himself as the only one.

This was originally his pride since he was a child, but at this moment he realized that it was the ugliness in his heart.

Everyone in this world is unique, he is neither more important nor noble than anyone else.

Sensing the change in Ying Xun's eyes, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the silver-haired boy's mouth.

"It's his son after all, not completely hopeless."

Ruzi can be taught, and it is not in vain for him to talk so much with people for the first time.

"Okay, let's go," the silver-haired boy tightened his fingers, "I have already said what I should say, and how to choose at that time is your business."

What he can do is to stand quietly in time and watch people make their own choices.

"Wait, you..."

The wind was howling around him, and Ying Xun wanted to say something, but he was blown out of the ice cave.

Seeing the silver-haired boy getting further and further away, Ying Xun covered his chest and said softly.

"Thank you."

……

……

Ying Xun's figure disappeared completely, the cynical expression on the silver-haired boy's face faded, and his eyes became serious.

With a wave of his hand, the scene on the Baili ladder appeared before his eyes again.

Staring at Ying Baoyue and the others who stopped in front of the cliff, he sighed softly, "Sure enough, I came to that place."

……

"Your Highness?"

On the Baili ladder, Gui Chen's head almost bumped into Ying Baoyue's back, and when he realized that Ying Baoyue stopped suddenly, he also stopped quickly, telling the people waiting behind him not to leave.

He raised his head, just about to ask Ying Baoyue why he stopped, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he took a breath and knew that he didn't need to ask any more.

"This, what is this?"

In front of everyone's eyes, the original level-by-level ladders suddenly disappeared, leaving only the bare mountain.

"Why is there no way?"

Ji Jiashu, who was walking behind Guichen, also raised his head and spoke in astonishment.

Previously, due to the heavy snow, the surrounding visibility was extremely poor. Everyone just stared at the one-acre three-point land in front of them. There is no stone ladder to step on.

"No, there are obviously ladders up there."

Yeluhua also raised his head and frowned.

They have only walked less than one-third of the distance from their current position. If they mobilize their true energy and focus on the goal, they can still see a higher place ahead and a level of ladder leading to the peak. There is a paragraph missing.

"This... is this for us to climb up?"

Looking at the bare stalagmite-like mountain in front of him, Ji Jiashu's heart was cold.

In such heavy snow, if there is no road, it is not easy to climb up.

"There is still a way."

Ying Baoyue pursed her lips, looked at the side of the mountain, and pulled out the water-breaking sword.

A stream of water rushed along the side of the mountain, washing away a layer of snowflakes on the surface, and seeing the stone bulge in front of them, everyone's eyes widened.

"No, Your Highness, do you call this a road?"

Zhao Guang, who was at the back, stood on tiptoe and stared dumbfounded at the side of the mountain that Ying Baoyue washed out.The side of the mountain is indeed not completely smooth, and there is a narrow stone protrusion in the lower part of the middle, like a belt around the mountainside.

Let’s say this is the road, but the width of this road can only accommodate one foot, with a cliff on one side and an abyss on the other.

At this time, a green fluorescent light shines from the bottom of the narrow bulge, as if guiding them to the route up the mountain.

Zhao Guang was dumbfounded.

"We... are going to go over here?"

Ying Baoyue nodded, since there were the same luminous worms below, it proved that she was not wrong in her judgment, this path is really a part of the Baili ladder.

"Walk along this road and go around the mountainside, and you should see stone steps again."

Zhao Guang swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"But... but how do we get here?"

Ying Baoyue was silent for a moment, then stretched out one foot and stepped on the bump on the side of the mountain.

She turned sideways, her body clinging to the straight cliff, and put her other foot up.

Seeing her actions, Gui Chen was so frightened that his heart stopped beating, "Your Highness!"

"I have no choice but to go this way," Ying Baoyue didn't look back, and moved forward a little bit against the cliff, "You can wait for me to pass before going up, remember not to look down."

As soon as you look down, your brain will feel dizzy.

It can only be said that fortunately none of them are obviously afraid of heights, otherwise this road would be hell.

"No." Looking at the narrow path in front of him, Gui Chen's eyes darkened for a while, but seeing that Ying Baoyue had moved to the middle, he gritted his teeth and stepped on this path.
