Chapter 555 Do You Hate Me For Not Saving You? (end 1)

Xiao Zijun in armor walked over step by step, but felt that the man gradually blurred into a black shadow, getting further and further away.

His body was shaking a little, his feet were unstable, and he seemed about to fall down at any moment.

Xiao Zijuan's eyes were sharp, and he reached out to support her. That arm was wrapped in bandages and stained with blood.

"Gently, are you hurt?"

He asked her anxiously, her eyes were red, her face was lifeless, she only wanted to hug her when no one was around.

She stood still and acted very calmly. She brushed away his hand that was holding her, and said politely and coldly: "Thank you, General, for your help."

Xiao Zijun's body trembled, as if someone had slapped him in the head.

The small medicine bottle in his hand landed crisply and rolled down the steps.

There was unbelievable consternation in his eyes.

Xiang Chengyu, who was behind him, came over, "Master, this is the emperor of Qi."

Nodding slightly blankly, "I'm sorry." Then he turned and left.

"Gently!" Xiao Zijuan shouted, trying to catch up with her, but was blocked by Xiang Chengyu.

"The Princess was frightened in the underground palace, and she may not remember some things and people now. Please Brother Xiao, please stop irritating her." The tone was a bit cold.

The two looked at each other, full of hostility.

The people behind Xiao Zijun followed closely, and the two sides were at war with each other, and there would be conflicts at any time.

There was a sneer at the corner of Xiang Chengyu's mouth, "Since Brother Xiao doesn't give up, it's better to wait for her to recover a little before coming back."

Xiao Zijun frowned when he saw the figure walking away gently, clearly thinking about something.

The next day Xiao Zijun heard that the Chu army was digging the underground palace and was going to bring the body of Emperor Chu back to Kyoto for a state funeral.

When he saw Ning Qingqing again, she was dressed in plain white clothes, with white hairpins and white flowers on her hair, and her clear eyes were slightly reddened on her beautiful face, which made her look very pitiful in his eyes.

Obviously she was wearing mourning for Xiang Chengye.

The expression on her face was still very pale.

He seemed to want to discern some faint sadness and pain from that face, but he only saw paleness, and even the pain dissipated a lot.

"Yuxiu has met His Majesty Emperor Qi." The voice was light and indifferent.

He looked at her with his hands behind his back, feeling helpless.If she really doesn't recognize herself, what can she do.

With a soft breath, he stared at her, "Do you hate me for not saving you?"

Slightly silent.

"I went to the underground palace to look for you, but I was blocked halfway and couldn't move forward. I searched for many rooms and passages in the underground palace, but I didn't find you—"

"You don't need to explain." Gentle and indifferent interrupted his explanation.

Wei Wei understood in her heart that Xiang Shaolin pressed the switch later, and the entrances and exits of the palace where she was located were all closed by stone gates, how could Xiao Zijun find it?
If they hadn't found the passage to the ground by themselves, they might all have died in the underground palace.

But what's the use of finding it, the master is no longer alive.

Xiao Zijun looked at her with grief in his eyes: "I'm sorry... Gentle, I let you face the danger alone."

"Your Majesty, if you are just apologizing, there is no need for it. The mistake is just a mistake, and the mistake is fate."

Xiao Zijun felt powerless pain in his heart.

She said she didn't blame him, but he knew it was.Blame him for being late.

"Gently, I came here this time to pick you up, and I hope I can spend the rest of my life to make up for you."

His body trembled slightly, and he took a step back.

She turned her gaze away very quickly, not looking at him, "I have no intention of leaving with you!"

Her words were crisp.

He took a step closer, forcing her to look at him, "Why?!"

"I want to stay in the state of Chu, and stay with Master to keep my filial piety. I owe him." She replied indifferently.

"That's the reason?" He smiled wryly, and looked around her indifferent face, in disbelief, "Then what about Zhen and Rui'er?!"

"Since you recognize him as the prince, naturally there is no such thing as a prince living abroad. Everything is up to His Majesty to decide, but I will not leave Chu."

He staggered a bit, felt a tightness in his chest, and became dizzy.

"What's the matter with you?" Looking at Qingqing's expression, he was fascinated, "Come on—"

Xiao Zijun tried his best to calm down, stood firm, and waved his hands without letting others approach.

With pain in his eyes, he stared at her: "Gentle, I don't believe this is your idea. If you have any difficulties, I will spare no effort to solve them for you!"

A flash of rapid emotion flashed in her eyes, and then the indifference on her face returned, "Thank you for your kindness. I have nothing else to ask, but my heart is safe by Master's side."

She bowed slightly to him, "Yuxiu has other things to do, so it's inconvenient for me to accompany you."

The distant mountains are bleak and the vegetation is withered.

In the mountains and fields in the early morning, the reeds are gray and the white dew is frost.

The wheels of the ancient road are rolling, the white banners are magnificent all the way, and the coffin support team is vast.

It was the first year of Frost's Fall, King Qin and Princess Yuxiu supported the coffin of Emperor Xiang Chengye of Chu, and Hao Hao returned to the capital of Chu.

On the way, there is a team of chariots and horses to meet them.

The man on the horse wore a purple green robe, got off his horse, and walked over.

A team of guards held knives to block the car, guarding the surroundings of the sedan chair.

A woman's voice came from the car, "Get out of the way!"

The curtain was lifted, and a beautiful woman in a plain dress could be seen inside.

"Gently, have you really decided?" Xiao Zijun stared at the people in the sedan chair with stern eyes.

"I hope you can make it happen." The voice in the car was cold.

The morning glow reflected on each other's faces through the bleak autumn forest in late autumn.

There was only a dead darkness in his eyes.

Some flying birds flitted across the wild swamp, startled a group of egrets.

He looked up at the sky, with tears in his eyes.

Looking at the sedan chair again, the curtain has been lowered.

"Gently, there will be a period later. I will wait for you for three years."

Through the curtain, Ning gently saw the back of him striding away.

The horse neighed, and she heard the hooves of his galloping away. At this moment, her heart was empty.

Unable to withstand the invasion of the cold air, the nostrils couldn't help sore, and hot tears rolled down the cold face.

I'm sorry, Xiao Zijun, I'm sorry...

She clearly remembered Master's dying words, "The tiger talisman is in Yuxiu Palace...give it to Chengming..." Chengming was Xiang Chengye's sixth younger brother, who was only fourteen years old, and was the late emperor's favorite prince in his later years.

Xiang Chengyu once threatened her: "It is impossible for the emperor to pass away without explaining. There is nothing on the excavated body, so there are only two possibilities that you took it away, or you knew something."

"I'm telling you, don't count on Xiao Yu. No matter Xiang Chengye or Xiao Yu, they have already been chronically poisoned, and they are here at Yuhua Terrace in Yuhen Villa, each with a cup of tea. I know you won't believe it, But you've seen him get sick, that time he fell off the horse, didn't the princess still make tea for him?"

She suddenly raised her head and stared at him, "It's you?! Why are you so vicious!"

"Since ancient times, kings have been kings and kings have been defeated. Brother Huang ascended to the throne, and the second brother died miserably. No one should sit in that position! As for Xiao Yu, he just drank the same pot with brother Huang. However, he was not wronged, so many Chu soldiers died because of him!"

(Ahem, because I wrote it now, I will continue at the end of tomorrow...)
