"General, the soldiers and horses of Da Zhou have successfully passed through the five gates of Shimendu. This time, Fu Yanche led the troops to rush forward. According to the speed of the army, they should reach the foot of the imperial city within two days."

Mu Yao, dressed in gray robes and silver armor, stood respectfully in the room and softly reported the news to the general. After waiting here, he did not hear any orders or reactions from the general. He slowly raised his head and looked at the wife on the bed. The general was indifferent and cold, thinking that now that the antidote was ruined, she could only wait for his wife to be poisoned. She felt very uncomfortable, but Da Zhou and Jing Chu were still hostile countries, and now the two armies were about to fight against Emperor Zhen She had to ask the general what he meant, hesitated for a while, and then asked softly again: "General...?"

"How is the Majesty of the Real Kingdom now?"

Mu Yao slightly lowered his head and replied to the slightly empty question, "Because Princess Yu came back a while ago, and the condition of the Majesty Zhenguo has improved a little. Fainted and comatose, according to the subordinates, it is not optimistic."

"Send troops and bring the people sent by Chunyu Xian to rearrange the defensive formations outside the imperial city. In addition, maintain the daily life and diet of the Zhenguo Shengshang as usual, and bring back the imperial physician who used to treat him in the palace to take care of him. Don't be negligent." With the soldiers approaching the city, the situation of Zhenguo is over, this is the last thing he can do for the Majesty of Zhenguo.

"Yes." Mu Yao responded, pursed his lips, and retreated silently.

The door of the room opened, the warm sun at noon came in through the crack of the door, the breeze was cool, Mu Yao appeared to leave, his eyes never left her pale sleeping face, he looked down at her little hand, he was still holding it for so long. It didn't warm up much, it was always warm for a while, and then became colder after a while, clearly reminding him that she was getting weaker and leaving little by little.

He tilted his head, sat on the bed rail and looked at her silently, "Do you remember when I took you to see your father?"

She didn't wake up, his voice was as slow as a memory, and echoed in the huge room, empty and lonely alone, "The first time you saw him, you played horses with him in the imperial garden. I like you very much. Later, he called me over several times in a hurry. He thought it was something important, but when he arrived, he found out that he was choosing a name for our future child, and he had prepared names for boys and girls," said the mouth. She smiled a little, but the corners of her eyes were sparkling, and a few traces of helpless pampering slipped from the bottom of her eyes, "But at that time, you didn't agree to be with me."

When he said this, he paused, and the sadness and loneliness that had solidified into a wound followed like a shadow, "After you came to my side, I never thought that one day I would lose you forever. What happened at that time, you never told me, I also can't understand why you want to destroy the antidote even though you are clearly reluctant to leave."

He held her hand tightly, and the confusion and sadness in his eyes gradually settled, as if something firm had already existed, and now, he had become even more resolute, "Shen Qingluo, if you are really persistent in seeking death, I will follow you."

I depend on you.

Shen Qing fell into a drowsy sleep, and faintly heard what the general said in her ear, but she couldn't hear clearly. When she heard the last word, her heart ached for no reason, which woke her up suddenly. With a slight movement, the eyelashes fluttered a little flustered, and he didn't dare to open his eyes again thinking that the general should still be angry after waking up.

I could tell that she was awake just from her breath, Xia Houzhan waited for a while, and a cold voice sounded in the room, "Are you still unwilling to wake up?"

She opened her eyes, facing the general's dark eyes staring at each other, vaguely indifferent, and sighed sullenly in her heart, sure enough, she was still angry...

With the general's help, he sat up slowly, but he played the unicorn bone flute last night, and his body has deteriorated so much, as if he hadn't eaten for a long time, Shen Qing was secretly surprised in his heart, after sitting down, he raised his eyes to look at the general, Pursing his lips, he carefully confirmed, "General, are you still angry?"

"So what if I'm angry, you're not going your own way."

Shen Qing silently bowed his head when told by the general, looked aggrieved, and sighed helplessly in his heart. Seeing her like this, Xia Houzhan felt a dull pain in his heart. He knew that his tone was too aggressive, even if he had already made a decision, he Still can't hide the anger and hatred for her, but what's the use of being angry and resentful now, they have so little time left now, do they still have to part with each other in the midst of fighting spirit?

Xia Houzhan got up, pulled the light fur that Yunxi brought early from the bed and draped it over her shoulders, "It's warmer outside than inside, I'll take you to sit outside and bask in the sun." She nodded happily, and he leaned over Holding her up, the light weight made him frown again, and his heart sank again.

The two of them crossed the Yushi creek and went to a cloud viewing platform that was very similar to the Lingjiao Beiduo of Yuchi Palace. The majestic and majestic atmosphere is different. The cloud viewing platform for viewing the scenery is even more unique and beautiful. Outside the jade railing is the long sea of ​​clouds floating under your feet. It feels like standing on a heavenly palace.

Shen Qing turned her head and saw the general's thin black body, looked at herself again, and said with a depressed smile: "General, compared with you, I feel like a bear now." The sun in June and July is so hot that She is lazy and sleepy, but she still feels a bit cold in the sun wearing a light fur. She wanted to say something to make the still stern general smile, but it didn't seem to work. Shen Qing pursed her mouth, thinking of something As if hurriedly asked again: "How is Princess Yu doing now?"

"Gao Jing has already treated her. The minor injuries she suffered are nothing serious. It's just that it's difficult to recover from the sadness caused by her brother's departure." Xia Houzhan lowered his eyebrows and said lightly: "Youyun has been with her all the time, you Don't worry."

Shen Qing nodded, thinking of Su Yuzhou's death and the current situation that Zhenguo is facing, it must be difficult for Su Yu, who is pregnant with Liujia, to encounter so many unexpected things, "The emotion of a pregnant woman is the most important thing, and it is easy to influence For the baby in the womb, well, I will go to see her later."

"Until now you still have the strength to think about other people's affairs."

Shen Qing was slightly stunned, "It's related to the child, it's also a life..."

"Qingluo," Xia Houzhan interrupted her suddenly, his expression moved, but he seemed to be enduring some intense emotions, "Gao Jing tells you, there are only three days left before the poison occurs." He heard When Gao Jing told him the truth, it took a lot of effort to calm himself down. For three days, even if the world is in turmoil now, no matter how many people he sent to search for the purple millet and the antidote, she has no time to wait. up.

Shen Qing was stunned for a moment, surprised that the anti-invasion power of the unicorn bone flute was really so powerful, she thought it would only speed up the time of poisoning by one day, but she didn't expect that now, she only had three days left to live.

"You promised me that you would stay with me for the rest of your life, that you would live a good life, but you lied to me. You made a plan early on and insisted on destroying the antidote, but you just don't want to live," Xia Houzhan stared at her deeply. , the dull pain in my heart could not stop for a moment, "At that time, you lied to me to drink the medicine for forgetting love, saying that you did something disobedient, and you would tell me when we were seventy or eighty and gray-haired, but Shen Qingluo, we all waited this time. Before that time, do you want to continue to hide it?"

Feeling the general's strong sadness, Shen Qing threw herself into his arms in a muffled voice, and buried her head on his chest, letting the tears in her eyes swirl faintly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry," yes, they can't wait for that It's time, we can't grow old together, since she doesn't have much time to live, what else can't be said?She spoke softly, and said little by little what she wanted to say in the past, "Actually, I have a lot of things to hide from you. In fact... I am not Shen Qingluo, and I am not from this world. I died in the previous life. In Shen Qingluo's body, so when I woke up in the General's Mansion, I would be so uncomfortable."

Xia Houzhan didn't doubt it, but just frowned slightly. Thinking of the situation when they first met, he suddenly understood the real reason why she held the sword at that time. Many times he also doubted, how could the Qingluo beside him be brought up by the aunt in Shen's house? The girl my sister abused, but he wanted her, no matter who she used to be, he didn't care.

"I came here suddenly, so it's no surprise that I'm gone now. I never thought of dying. I really want to live on and be with you for the rest of my life. I didn't lie to you. You know, I'm afraid Death and fear of pain..."

"If you are really afraid of death and pain, why destroy the antidote without even blinking your brows."

Shen Qing paused, "Because we always encounter danger when we are together, I always see you get hurt because of me, you were so badly hurt in the battle of Jingzhou, lying on the bed in the barracks with a high fever, I have no consciousness for seven days and seven nights, I am really afraid that you will not be able to wake up, I have caused you to be involved in everything." The tears in the eyes have flowed out unconsciously, the previous scenes of danger, and the battle of Jingzhou She never wanted to see the hurt he suffered at that time.

Xia Houzhan let go of his arms, held her shoulders and looked at her, "Those were all accidents, Shen Qingluo, did you choose to leave me just because of this!?"

Shen Qing knew that the general would definitely not accept such an answer, so he continued silently: "General, actually think about it, we will all die in the end, whether it is now or in seven or eighty years, I am happy to be here I met you in this life, and in my two lives, it is the best thing to meet you; I regret that we can't have a lot of time together, I can't have a child for you, and grow old together; and now, I'm glad I didn't look at you first Leave," she said again, she couldn't bear the pain, "General, can you promise me that if I really leave, you will live a good life."

"I live a good life, and then I meet another woman, fall in love with her, live with her, have many children with her, and then completely forget about you. Is this what you want?"

Him with another woman?Just hearing what he said, Shen Qing couldn't stop the pain in her heart, it was really hard for her to accept such details, her eyes were full of sad mist, but she still nodded slightly in agreement.

"Okay," Xia Houzhan said in a low voice, hugged her into his arms, and hugged her tightly with all his strength, "Shen Qingluo, I will follow you."

I won't have such a good life,

Shen Qingluo, I can't fall in love with anyone anymore,

If you want to die, I will follow you. Wherever you go, I will follow you, whether it is heaven or earth, or hell.

It's just that Shen Qing didn't understand what he meant, thinking that he agreed, the emotions of joy and faint sadness rushed to his heart together, and the pain was cut out, and the tears had already flowed beyond his own...

*

When the sun slid to the west exit, Shen Qing realized that she fell asleep crying and crying just now. Maybe it was because she ate too little and had too little stamina left. She only had the last three days to live, but she was still like this Limp and sickly, he couldn't do all the things he wanted to do before he died, as he had imagined before.

The general accompanied her to sit in the Cloud Appreciation Terrace for an afternoon, and when she returned, Yunxi brought her a bowl of medicine with tears in her eyes. Yunxi tortured her on time and on time, but thinking about it, it seemed that she still owed Brother Ziyi a huge debt, and hadn't helped him find a wife, so she could only drink a few sips silently as indirect and indirect compensation.

I thought I would be more energetic after drinking the medicine. I thought that I would not sleep at night after sleeping for a day and a night. It was very uncomfortable, the general was always talking to her intermittently by his side, she couldn't hear what the general said, but he was willing to let her continue to squint for a while until he heard her answer, probably because he was afraid that she would be so drowsy If you fall asleep, you won't even have time to live for the last three days.

She didn't realize this thought until the next morning. Her life had already entered the countdown, the penultimate day.

The weather is still fine today, the morning sun is not strong, the general won't allow her to see Su Yu, so she insists on coming to the Cloud Terrace, as long as she can get out of the room, as a way to let herself breathe.

"Don't look around," Xia Houzhan looked at her with a frown, holding a spoonful of smooth fragrant porridge in his hand, and said like a grown-up: "Be attentive when eating."

She chuckled and turned back to look at him, just as she was about to say something, when she saw many white things dangling from the top of the general's head, falling on their hair and shoulders, Xia Houzhan stopped his hands and followed by a look,

Shen Qing looked up and searched around, only to find that it was floating down from the big tree beside the cloud viewing platform. I don't know what kind of flower it is, small and small pieces of snow-white, like snowflakes, swaying and falling, waiting to see it again When we were generals, we found that many petals had already been spread on each other's heads.

Xia Houzhan reached out to take the petals off her bun, but Shen Qing silently avoided it, with a bit of joy, "General, look, if we are like this, can we count as growing old together?"
