Chapter 48 The Palace Master Returns to the Palace (2)
For a moment, she didn't know whether she should hope that they would reconcile, or that everything between them would stop there.Sighing lightly, he walked towards Rumo, watched her hand movements, bit his lip, and didn't speak.

Seeing her bright face full of sorrow, Ru Mo knew it in his heart.Lowering his eyes, he said in a calm voice, "Are you worried about him?"

Yi Yu pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and said, "It's been more than half a month, I heard that he hasn't woken up yet! If even Qi Che can't save him, then he... Rumo, you... really don't want to see him." see?"

The movements of Ru Mo's hands froze slightly, and the tearful red candle next to her was bleak and desolate.She was silent for a moment, then said lightly: "When the time comes, he will wake up."

Just like her back then, he was just escaping.According to the news from Qi Che, his physical injuries were not fatal at all.It's just that I dare not face myself.

Putting the painting on the inner side of the jade pillow, the seemingly random movement is actually cautious.

"Yi Yu, go and see him." Ru Mo sighed softly, "He is your elder brother after all, no matter what happens between me and him, I can't erase the blood relationship between you. What's more, he never gave up. I have been looking for you, and your mother, he loves you, there is no doubt about it! In fact, your real second brother Nangong Ye was gone when he was seven years old. He is your third brother, so many years He has been living instead of Nangong Ye who died for him."

"You mean..." Yi was slightly surprised.Ru Mo nodded slightly, and said again: "He has deep guilt in his heart. Even if he can restore his true identity, he will choose to live for others all his life. With the responsibility of two people, to protect his relatives, he... It's actually very tiring..."

"Yi Yu, there are two lives between me and him. I have no way to enter his life again, but you can! Use your affection to warm him and make him not so lonely anymore."

A cold voice, sad and desolate.

Yi Yu said in a daze, "Rumo...you..."

I want to ask if she has forgiven him for hurting her, but she just can't let go of Weilan and Qinzhen's death?But it doesn't matter whether they forgive or not. It's not the fault of one person to come to this point.

As expected, the efficiency of the Star Demon Branch Master was very high. In less than three days, more than 40 properties of Jiangnan No. [-] Village in the capital city were all closed overnight.Rumo asked someone to let the owner of the No. [-] villa in the south of the Yangtze River come to apologize in person within ten days, otherwise, the matter would not be over.This incident caused a sensation in the entire capital city, and even the entire martial arts world. People speculated, what was the reason for the Demon Palace's reappearance in such a high-profile manner?
"The intention of the Palace Master to let the owner of the No. [-] Villa in the south of the Yangtze River come to apologize in person is not just to show off the momentum of our Demon Palace?" Elder Zhuo asked with a smile in the main hall of the Wind Breath Palace.

Ru Mo put down the teacup in his hand, raised his eyebrows lightly, "However, this is only one of the reasons."

"Then miss, what are the other reasons?" Luan Yun asked in a crisp voice, like a child who didn't grow up, curious about everything.

Wanli stared and reprimanded: "Luan Yun, Miss was talking to the elder, but you interrupted again!"

Luan Yun stuck out her tongue playfully, and immediately lowered her head.

Ru Mo shook his head helplessly, and said, "Yun Pavilion has found out that Yan Fu, the owner of the No. [-] villa in the south of the Yangtze River, is most likely not a person of the feudal state. Because all the wealth he collected in the feudal state for so many years was transported to the Jin state, And where exactly it was transported to the Kingdom of Jin, I couldn’t find out.”

"Palace Master doubts?"

"I suspect that Jiangnan No. [-] Villa and the Bloodthirsty Building are inseparably related to the royal family of the Kingdom of Jin. Just think, if it weren't for the huge power, it is impossible to find the slightest clue!"

"So the palace lord wants to use this to lure out the people behind the scenes?"

"I'm not sure if it can be lured out, let's see their reaction first." Ru Mo pondered for a while, and said again: "I have asked Can Ge to investigate this matter in the Kingdom of Jin, to find out the strength of the other party... Elder Zhuo , would you blame me for bringing the Demon Palace into this battle that had nothing to do with it?"

"How can it be irrelevant?" Luan Yun immediately jumped out and shouted, "The people from the bloodthirsty building have repeatedly harmed Miss, just to fight against our magic palace! Of course, we must find a way to lure the people behind the scenes and catch them all!"

This time, Wanli did not blame her for interrupting recklessly, because what Luan Yun said was exactly what she thought in her heart.

Elder Zhuo said: "They also coveted the treasures of my Demon Palace, I believe that until now, they may not give up!"

Ru Mo nodded, "I'm afraid that what they are coveting is not just as simple as treasure. Yi Yu, you make people pay close attention to the movements of Jin and Yi, and you must not relax. At the beginning, Wu Xie secretly killed Concubine Yan Gui, and then put the blame on My purpose is nothing more than to destroy the relationship between Feng and Yi, and now that the purpose is achieved, they will definitely make the next move."

Yi Yu frowned and said, "They probably want to join forces with Yi Kingdom to attack our feudal kingdom. Why don't we send people to sneak into Yi King's palace, kill Yi King, let his sons compete for the throne, and have no time to care about other things."

"No!" Leng Yixiao, who hadn't spoken up until now, said at this time: "A month ago, this method would still work, but now it doesn't work."

"Why?" Yi Yu asked strangely.Ru Mo continued: "Because the two countries have turned against each other, once King Yi dies at this time, he will definitely point the finger at Feng Kingdom. If there is someone with a heart to instigate, at that time, I am afraid that the dispute between the princes of Yi Kingdom will be an offensive The first condition is to seal the country down."

"Exactly." Leng Yixiao nodded in agreement.

Ru Mo said again: "In just half a month, the situation in the world has undergone earth-shaking changes. It's better to pay attention to their movements first. I don't think Yiguo took action so quickly. After all, their internal conflicts are already deep, and Yiwang has no reality in his hands. Military power, it is not easy to send troops. In one month, the annual martial arts conference will be held, I believe this time it will be very lively."

Leng Yi Xiaoqing said with a smile: "When did you become interested in the martial arts conference?"

Ru Mo said: "I think it's not just me who is interested, the person behind Wu Xie should be even more interested."

"how do I say this?"

"I have repeatedly sabotaged their plans. They will definitely use this martial arts conference to win the position of leader and call on the entire martial arts community to annihilate our Demon Palace in the name of justice."

Leng Yixiao pondered: "So, you want to win the position of leader by yourself, and don't let them take advantage of it?"

Ru Mo smiled and said, "Will you go with me?"

"of course."

The two looked at each other and smiled, at this time someone came in and reported: "Palace Master, someone wants to see you!"

"who?"

"Back to the Palace Master. The person who came was Qi Che. He claimed to be Elder Zhuo's closed disciple. He had the elder's badge in his hand. He said that he wanted to see the Palace Master. In addition, he brought more than a dozen people, each wearing a Long sword, but not like people in the Jianghu, I don't know what their identity is. The subordinate asked them to wait in the main hall." The servant finished the report in one go.

Elder Zhuo looked at Ru Mo's face, frowned and said, "This rebel dared to bring someone here without permission. It's really wrong! I'll teach him a lesson!"

"Hold on, Elder Zhuo!" Ru Mo got up to block the way, with a calm expression on his face, "Qi Che is not a reckless person. There must be a reason for bringing someone here without notification. Yi Yu, let me take a look."

In the main hall of the Demon Palace, there are dozens of steps, extending step by step, all the way down.

Ru Mo was taken aback when he saw that it was Chang Feng who came. Behind Chang Feng, there were some generals in the army, such as Qin Zheng and Qu Zhan.Can't help being puzzled, she turned her gaze to Qi Che.

In front of the other disciples of the Demon Palace, Qi Che stopped his usual casualness and bowed to her very politely.

"Meet the Palace Master."

"There's no need to be too polite." Ru Mo waved his hands lightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

Qi Che sighed, and frowned again and again, but he didn't answer, and only glanced at Chang Feng and the others.Chang Feng immediately stepped forward and knelt down at her feet without saying a word.

There are few faces with emotional fluctuations, but at this moment, there is anxiety that cannot be concealed.

"Princess!" Changfeng shouted with a sincere tone.

But such a title made Ru Mo frown slightly.Not only Chang Feng, but even Qin Zheng and Qu Zhan who came with him... the dozen or so generals who had been in the barracks and urged Nangong Ye to kill her all knelt down to her!

"What are you doing?" Rumo asked in a deep voice.

Chang Feng said: "Princess..."

"Don't dare to be. It's better for you to call me Palace Master!" Ru Mo's attitude was indifferent, and his tone did not allow resistance.But Changfeng still said: "Whether you admit it or not, the princess will always be the princess! And Changfeng believes that the prince will not marry anyone other than you in this life. It is really necessary to come here to disturb each other this time. , and I ask the concubine to look at the past relationship between you and the lord... Please, save our lord!"

The leader bows down, and everyone behind him follows.His face was sincere, without the anger and contempt of that day.

Ru Mo's heart sank, what is the reason that these men who value dignity so much, came to kneel down to a woman like her who had been humiliated by them in every possible way?
"Qi Che, what's going on?" Before Ru Mo could speak, Yi Yu had already rushed to ask Qi Che, his tone obviously nervous and anxious.

Only then did Qi Che say: "Since yesterday, the prince's pulse has gradually weakened. Medication alone can't counteract his own subconscious mind. Even if the king talks with him every day, it can't arouse the slightest idea of ​​survival in him. If this continues, I'm afraid... the situation is not good!"

"How could this happen?!" Yi Yu asked in surprise, Qi Che shook his head helplessly.

Ru Mo's heart was shocked, she thought he could survive it!
"Princess, Changfeng knows that you have been brooding over the death of the second envoy of the Demon Palace, but it is not the prince's fault, everything is the fault of the subordinates! It was the subordinates who mistrusted Wu Linyue and let her take my waist." The card killed Weilan messenger... Chang Feng knew he was guilty, and he came here today to plead guilty, and he is willing to pay with his life... I just beg the concubine to go and see the prince!"

Bowing his head and nodding, he put the sword that he carried with him in front of her with both hands.Ru Mo trembled slightly, at this time Qin Zheng and the others also took out their sabers, raised their heads high, and said in unison: "There are us."

Without any reluctance, he gave his life so sincerely.

Can't say no to emotion.

Looking at the dozen or so sabers that were raised above their heads, Ru Mo's eyes moved slightly, Changfeng is to Nangong Ye, just like Weilan is to her.Even if she kills Chang Feng today to take revenge, Wei Lan will not come back to life, but she can't pretend that nothing happened.

"Let's go." She turned her back lightly, her voice was so calm that there was no emotion.

"Ru Mo..." Qi Che couldn't help calling her, but Ru Mo frowned and interrupted: "Are you going to force me?"

Frowning and looking back, being able to not hate is already her limit.Forgiving and accepting him again, she couldn't do it.

With pain in his eyes and struggling endlessly, Qi Che couldn't help sighing, "I'm not trying to force you. I just want to tell you that I have done everything I can. If you go, there may still be a glimmer of hope. You If he doesn't go, he will definitely die!"

Doomed for sure...

Ru Mo was stunned, a little disbelieving, but Qi Che's expression told her that he meant the truth, not a joke, or coaxing her to visit Nangong Ye.

"Let's go." Qi Che turned his head and sighed.

Chang Feng said unwillingly: "But..."

"Let's go." Qi Che winked, pulled up Changfeng, and said goodbye to Rumo.Before leaving, he took a deep look at Yi Yu, took out a thick scroll and handed it over.

"Mr. Qi, let's leave like this, the princess..." After leaving the magic palace, Chang Feng was still worried.

Qi Che said: "She will go."

Very sure, not without a sigh.He also said: "She is a person who values ​​love and righteousness, no one cares more about the life and death of the prince than her."

What's more, there is also Yiyu.

I don't know how to get back to the dormitory, Ru Mo's expression is a little dull, and his mind is blank.Yi Yu followed her, and only after entering the bedroom did she slowly hand over the scroll that Qi Che had given her to Rumo.

I did not answer.Ru Mo just stared at the tearful red candle, in a daze.

Yi Yu's eyes flashed, he thought about it, and said, "If you don't want to read it, I'll burn it for you. Anyway, he didn't treat you well, so he just died, it's no big deal."

Not without anger.Gritting his teeth after speaking, he really put the scroll on the candle and lit it.

The flames shot straight, and instantly cut the red rope binding the scroll, and the thick scroll slipped out of Yi Yu's palm in an instant, and scattered scattered on the ground with a scorching flame.

The person in the painting, with eyebrows like distant blacks and eyes like cold stars, stands alone in the wind and rain, thunder and lightning behind her, reflecting her desolate eyes, with a sad and mournful expression...

It was her from that night!Suddenly his heart trembled, wasn't he having a good time with Wu Linyue at that time, how could he see her embarrassed appearance at that time?Even the facial expressions, as well as the inner feelings, are drawn so clearly and realistically, just like the painter, empathize with them!
Could it be...

With a sudden change in her mind, she quickly extinguished the fire, and there were dozens of her shadows in the remaining picture scroll.Every picture is full of emotion, just like the one she once painted of him.

The dry eyes flashed with pain, pointing directly at the door of the heart.Looking at the decisive figure on the paper, there is a sad smile, a desperate mockery...the blood-stained hem lifted by the wind...the thin but straight back...

It turned out that he could remember every expression of her so clearly.Perhaps, at that moment, he already regretted it.But what's the use?

He raised his hand to cover his mouth, blocking the weak crying in his throat.The body trembled uncontrollably.

A pair of warm hands covered her thin shoulders.Ru Mo trembled slightly, and heard the person behind him sigh softly: "Go!"

Ru Mo turned his head, with tears in his eyes, choked up and called out: "Brother..."

"The past is all in the past, and life cannot be repeated. But Yan'er, you are so smart, don't do things that you will regret for the rest of your life! There are some regrets, once they are made, they can never be made up for, you... understand? ?” The elegant and transparent voice seemed to have the power to calm people's hearts, and she suddenly calmed down.

There are indeed too many regrets and pains in life, and she really doesn't want to add one more.
