Chapter 79 Falling off a cliff
Nanchang State
In the main hall of the imperial palace, the ladies of the court attend on the left and right.
Behind the agate bead curtain, the queen of Nanchang Kingdom sat on the dragon chair.Wearing a nine-color phoenix suit, the skirt spread out like a peacock, covering the phoenix boots, only revealing a small spot.Long eyelashes covered her eyelids, her expression looked very condensed, and her red Danko nails were extremely enchanting, reflecting her red lips.
"Bring people up!" the queen said lightly.
"Yes!" The female officer in the hall responded immediately.
Not long after, several guards brought a woman into the hall.The woman was still wearing night clothes, her hands were tied behind her back, and she was stabbed in the chest. Although the blood stopped, her face was pale and weak.I am afraid that this is caused by too much blood loss.There are several bruises on her face, which appear to have been stabbed with a sword.
"Kneel quickly!" the guard shouted, and forced the woman to the ground.
The queen said slowly, "No!"
The guard didn't dare to make a mistake, and hurriedly bowed his head and retreated.
Through the agate bead curtain, a bloodthirsty light flashed through the eyes of the queen, and she said softly, "Guardian Yun, you are so courageous. You even broke into the palace alone. But you are one step away, and he is no longer in the sky prison."
Yun Ni turned her head away arrogantly, ignoring it.
"Where is Dong Xuanyi's life?" the queen asked again.
Yun Ni met her, her eyes pierced the eye-catching bead curtain, and she said coldly, "He's just a child, why should the empress kill him all?"
"Are you accusing me of being cruel?" The Queen raised the corners of her lips and smiled lightly.
Yun Ni stared at her, and asked hesitantly, "What grudge does the empress have with Daxing!"
The queen chuckled softly, and her smile made Yun Ni even more suspicious.The queen stood up directly, and the maid stretched out her hand to lift the bead curtain.Yun Ni looked at her squarely, and saw that she walked gracefully, slowly stepped off the dragon chair, and walked in front of Yun Ni.Yun Ni was startled, and saw her expression slowly change.
The indifference faded away, mixed with innumerable undercurrents.
The empress stared at her with her phoenix eyes, and said quietly, "You are also dying soon, you don't need to know."
At this time, Zhongli was brought into the hall by two guards.
The queen shouted softly, "Everyone back down."
"Yes!" All the people in the hall responded in unison and retreated one after another.
Yun Ni's back stiffened immediately, and she felt two scorching gazes behind her. She turned around slowly, and saw him whom she hadn't seen for several months.Zhongli stood in front of her, so close.He seemed to be a little thinner than before he left.Yintang was black and his eyes were red.
The crowd respectfully walked up to the queen, knelt down, and shouted in a deep voice, "Your Majesty!"
"Do you know what to do?" the queen asked with a smile.
"This subordinate knows." Zhongli replied firmly.
"Okay." The queen nodded with satisfaction, and said earnestly, "Don't let me down."
"Subordinates must complete the task." Zhongli promised.
Only then did the empress take steps, her phoenix dress tugged at the floor, she turned her back to her, "Take her down, and then set off immediately!"
"Yes!"
The sound of footsteps gradually faded away, and the queen turned her head to look out of the Huadiao window, only to see the blue sky and white clouds, and the weather was fine.But beside her ears, there was someone's gentle female voice, so real, she could never let go of it for the rest of her life.She thought of that poem, and read it out, "The day is sunny and the clouds are bright... The night comes and the pearl is a little bright..."
Sister, where are you and Brother Gu now?
※※※
Decades ago
In the General's Mansion of Nanchang Kingdom, two young daughters knelt down in front of their father who was a general.This is a pair of sisters, they are as beautiful as hibiscus.They are the only two daughters of the old general, so they have been favored since birth and lead a carefree life.
But the father's decision forced the two to face a separation.
Since the elder sister Ah Qing had promised to the old general's favorite subordinate Gu Lang, the younger sister A Lian was selected.
But the day before his departure, his older sister Chu Qing brought her younger sister Chu Lian to his father's room.
"Father, my sister and Brother Gu are in love with each other! Ah Qing has nothing to do with me, and is willing to marry my sister." Chu Qing pleaded.
Chu Lian suddenly turned her head to look at her sister, her eyes were full of fear.
"Gu Lang? Ah Qing! He is your future husband!" The old general shouted sharply, "No way! The candidate has been agreed upon! It must be Alian!"
Chu Lian lowered her head, bit her lips tightly and remained silent.
"Father, my sister has a general's flesh and blood in her womb." Chu Qing spoke the truth in a very soft voice.
The old general was stunned and angry, and yelled, "What? A-Lian! Is there such a thing?"
"Daughter... my daughter is indeed pregnant with the general's flesh and blood!" Chu Lian stretched out her hand to touch her lower abdomen, but she couldn't tell.
"Presumptuous!" The old general was furious.
"Father! Hongdi only saw the portrait, but didn't recognize A-Lian. My daughter is willing to marry on her behalf!" Chu Qing said firmly, as if he had made up his mind a long time ago.
Chu Lian heard her sister say this, but couldn't say a word.
It turns out that sister, she knows everything...
"It's the only way to go now! Ah Qing, prepare quickly! We will leave tomorrow!" The general had a headache, but there was nothing he could do.
The two sisters returned to their rooms.
Chu Lian knelt down in front of her sister, but Chu Qing hurriedly helped her up and hugged her.
"Sister, I..."
Chu Qing only said lightly, "My sister doesn't blame you."
Chu Lian burst into tears like rain, crying silently.
From then on, Ah Lian became Ah Qing, and Ah Qing became Ah Lian.Qinglian Qinglian, they are twin sisters.But A-Lian did not expect that that night of selfish indulgence, that night of stealing and changing positions, caused two scars that will never be erased.I just still remember their promise back then.
"A-Lian, do you still remember the random poems we wrote back then?"
"Which one?"
"The sun is sunny and the clouds are bright..."
As soon as Chu Qing uttered the first half of the poem, Chu Lian immediately read the second half, "Ye Lai Baozhu points out."
"Alian, can my sister make an agreement with you?"
"What agreement?"
"When the child is born, if it's a boy, it's called Qingming, and if it's a girl, it's called Mingzhu."
"it is good!"
Zhongli took Yun Ni to a secluded palace in the palace, which was his recent residence.Passing by the imperial garden on the way, Yun Ni saw the pond full of lotus flowers blooming incomparably luxuriantly.After entering the main hall, Zhong Li immediately untied Yun Ni.The palace was empty and silent.
As soon as the thick rope was loosened, Yun Ni looked at Zhongli and said hurriedly, "We'll leave right away!"
After the words fell, Yun Ni stretched out her hand to grab Zhongli's hand, as if she was about to leave.
But Zhongli stopped.
Yun Ni looked at him in confusion, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong? Are you greedy for life and afraid of death?" In fact, she knew that he was definitely not a person who was afraid of death. As a spy, as a killer, he had already seen through life and death.But until now, he is still unwilling to leave.In desperation, she slipped and said something stupid.
Zhong Li stared at her, his eyes filled with depths.
It took a long time to calm down, and said calmly, "You have been poisoned, I can't let you die."
Yun Ni was taken aback when she heard him say that, and let go of his hand.She sneaked into the palace secretly and was caught after trying to save him but failed.Because of the sword wound, she was unconscious, and she didn't know what happened.It was just that she suddenly remembered what the empress said just now, and she finally understood what it meant.
"You're dying too, you don't need to know."
It turned out to be the case.
But at this time, Yun Ni suddenly felt touched for no reason.
In this world, there are people who miss her and worry about her.Even if there is only one person.
"You can live here with peace of mind, and you can ask for anything you need." Zhongli urged, his eyebrows frowning, and he said firmly, "I'm going!"
Seeing him striding out of the hall, Yun Ni felt terrified that she would never see him again.She took a step forward and couldn't help shouting, "Wait!"
Zhongli suddenly stopped and looked back at her.
Yun Ni hesitated for a while before asking, "The gouache paper bag...do you still keep it?" She was a little embarrassed, but she didn't dare to look at him. When her eyes flickered, she had already shifted away.
Zhongli remained silent, just walked in front of her.He reached into his chest and placed his fist in front of her.Yun Ni looked down at his clenched fist, opened it carefully, and saw the gouache paper bag in her palm.On the paper package is the small seal script she wrote back then, but the handwriting is already blurred.
He has always been a silent and rigid man, but he always carries this little thing with him.
In the same body as you, this life wish is enough.
Yun Ni murmured in her heart, thought a lot, and then said what was in her heart, "Why don't we go together."
Now both of them have been poisoned, and they don't know how many days they can live.But if she can live day by day, she wants to spend some leisure time with him.And she was even more afraid that he would never return, he would understand how King Zhan treats his concubine.The empress ordered him to take the princess to Nanchang, which was a death sentence.
"The empress you have been loyal to has treated you like this, do you want to continue to be loyal to her?" Yun Ni asked.
Zhongli put the gouache paper bag back into his skirt, his resolute face remained unmoved, "I have something to tell you when I come back."
"What words!" Yun Ni was eager to know the reason.
Zhong Li raised the corners of his lips, just reaching out to touch her face.But the hand was still frozen in the air, and finally fell down.
"Wait for me." After saying these two words, he turned and left without looking back.
Yun Ni was taken aback for a moment, but the uneasiness became more and more serious.
※※※
One month later
Queen's bedroom - Fengxiao Palace
The maids waved the plantain fans, the phoenix collapsed, and Empress Chu Qing was resting on her side with her eyes closed.
Suddenly, a bird flew to the window and sang crisply.
Chu Qing opened her eyes, looked at the bird, and said softly, "I want to rest, you all stand back."
"Yes!" The maids immediately stopped their movements and all exited the bedroom.
After the people left, Chu Qing got up anxiously.Her temples were slightly disheveled, but her eyes burst out with the light of expectation.She ran to the bird as if she were running to someone longing.Chu Qing took out a small bottle from his sleeve, pulled off the cap, and shook the bottle mouth at the bird.
The bird responded immediately, spitting out a round soft object from its mouth.
Chu Qing carefully opened it, and inside was a small ball of paper.She pulled the ball of paper away and saw a line of small characters written on the ball of paper.
"Please accidentally hurt Zhongli and Yunni."
There are only a few numbers, but the word "please" is used.
Chu Qing stared at the ball of paper and looked again and again, but her eyes felt sour for a while.Could it be that he really won the world, but lost his closest relative?Chu Qing always remembered his pair of silent eyes, standing in front of her, the stranger was worse than a passerby.But he happened to be her son, the son she had to give up.
Back then, Brother Gu couldn't worry about his sister, so he sneaked away after all.It was only a year, and the elder sister had just given birth, and both of them were killed by Emperor Hong.And she was no longer Chu Lian, but Chu Qing.In order to continue to survive, and to avenge Brother Gu and her sister one day, she had no choice but to give up her child and choose to marry the prince.
Unexpectedly, her Qingming was still alive.
When we met many years later, he was already a businessman in nine countries.
He was dressed in white, and the young man who talked and laughed lightly was the child she shared with Big Brother Gu.
"Qingming, my child..."
"Princess, you have identified the wrong person."
"But you are my child, you are my child!"
"Child? I thought you would treat me as dead from the day you decided to throw me away."
"Listen to me, I have my reasons."
"Sorry? It's a pity that I'm not interested in listening. Please come back, Crown Princess."
"I...I want to ask you one thing. You personally killed Dong Yanhong for me."
"Why should I promise you?"
"Just pretend...just pretend that I gave birth to you, and you return my love."
"Okay! See off!"
Chu Qing immediately took out a pen and ink and wrote a line of small characters, rolled it into a ball of paper and stuffed it back into the round object.She put something close to the bird's beak, the bird opened its beak, swallowed it, flapped its wings and flew away.
Shengxin Dynasty
Miyakonojo
Martial Arts Field in the Palace
Xiao Xuanyi is doing boxing, he is already five years old.A five-year-old child is innocent and cute.The full heaven, a pair of dark eyes, so bright, so bright.The small figure gestured with fists and feet, resembling each other.In a few years, he will grow into a man who can stand upright.
Looking at him, Feng Zhanxiu suddenly had a deep longing.
She longed to have a child like him.I'm afraid it's just a dream.
Xiao Xuanyi immediately ran to Feng Zhanxiu after finishing a whole set of boxing, raised his head and looked at him expectantly, without blinking his eyes, and asked anxiously, "Uncle Emperor, how is my fight? Is it better than before?" progress?"
Feng Zhanxiu lowered his head and stared at him, but did not speak for a long time.
His silence made Xiao Xuanyi a little nervous, and Fox asked, "Did I not play well?"
damn!The emperor seems to be angry!
Feng Zhanxiu raised the corners of his lips with a smile of joy.The little guy's tangled face filled his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Very well."
"Really?" Xiao Xuanyi changed his expression instantly and asked happily.
Feng Zhanxiu nodded, and slowly squatted down in front of him.He took out an item from his pocket and held it in front of Xiao Xuanyi.Xiao Xuanyi stared at the boxy hard thing and looked again and again, but with a blank expression on his face, he asked curiously, "Uncle Huang, what is this?"
"Your majesty, you have to hold it well." Feng Zhanxiu grabbed his little hand and put the soldier talisman into his hand.
"Handsome?" Xiao Xuanyi was even more confused as he read the above words.
"This thing is called a military talisman, and it is very important. As long as the emperor has this, the whole world belongs to the emperor." Feng Zhanxiu explained simply, and added, "Whatever the emperor wants, he can get."
"So powerful?" Xiao Xuanyi took it seriously, carefully holding the soldier talisman and said, "Then I must take good care of it."
"The emperor can give this thing to the prime minister, and he will dedicate everything the emperor wants to the emperor." Feng Zhanxiu's amber eyes were soaked by the sun, and there was a gleam of light.
Xiao Xuanyi thought for a moment, then looked at him again, "I only want the emperor, aunt, uncle Gongsun and father-in-law."
"When the emperor grows up, he will know." Feng Zhanxiu said helplessly because of his childishness.
Xiao Xuanyi frowned when he heard him say that, "Why did Eunuch De say that, so I want to grow up quickly."
"Your Majesty." Feng Zhanxiu shouted, his voice lowered a bit, "I want to leave the Emperor for a few days."
"Where is Uncle Huang going? Did he quarrel with Auntie again? Has Auntie lived in Uncle Gongsun's house again? Xiao Xuanyi asked anxiously, and immediately showed reluctance, and hugged him, "Auntie is really not good !Uncle, don't go!I'll let my aunt live back in the palace immediately!You don't want to go! "
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, reached out and touched his little head, "I'm going with her, so I have to leave for a few days."
Xiao Xuanyi breathed a sigh of relief, but still reluctantly said, "It turns out that Uncle Huang and Auntie are leaving together! When will you be back?"
"soon."
"How fast is it?" Xiao Xuanyi started to make mistakes again, and insisted on asking the end.
"Your Majesty, the two of us will not be by your side in the future, so we must be careful in everything. During this period of time, I can't accompany the emperor to practice martial arts, so the emperor can't be lazy." Since when did he see him as his own child.
This child who bothered him and made him worry.
"Then uncle and aunt take me there!" Xiao Xuanyi began to act like a spoiled child.
"The emperor wants to live in the palace." Feng Zhanxiu stood up and looked at him condescendingly, "The time has come, it's time to go back."
"Then I won't be the emperor anymore." Xiao Xuanyi blurted out, holding his big hand habitually, and walked back towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.From time to time he looked up at him, eager to follow.
Feng Zhanxiu frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Don't say this again in the future, Auntie will be unhappy if she hears it."
"I won't talk about it." Xiao Xuanyi pursed her lips and muttered again secretly, "But I really don't want to do it!"
※※※
Mingzhu and Gongsun Qingming calculated that it was almost time, so they walked out of the hall and waited.
Gongsun Qingming turned his head and glanced at Mingzhu, his sculpted side face was full of warmth, he moved his lips, and there was an unresolved melancholy between his brows, it seemed that he was not the usual graceful him.He moved his lips and said in a deep voice, "You really want to do this?"
"When he asked me to drink that bowl of soup, I had already made up my mind." Mingzhu smiled slightly, but her heart was silent.She looked back at him and said lightly, "Give it to me."
"Don't think about it again?" Gongsun Qingming asked again, trying to change her decision.
Mingzhu shook her head and said softly, "Since there will be no results, why should I be persistent."
Gongsun Qingming sighed and had no choice but to take out the vial from his sleeve.Mingzhu reached out to take it, but trembled slightly. Looking at the vial in her hand, she heard Gongsun Qingming's distant male voice, "This is Huagong powder, colorless and odorless. Once you take it, your internal energy will be dissipated. Be careful. "
"I see." Mingzhu murmured, "Thank you brother."
"Then where are you going?" Gongsun Qingming couldn't help asking.
Mingzhu thought for a long time, but said in a muffled voice, "I don't know either. Just walk around, the sky is big and the earth is big. Just like the elder brother said, there is no home everywhere, is there home everywhere, isn't it?"
"Hehe." Gongsun Qingming couldn't help chuckling, and reminded him, "Remember to come back."
"If he comes back to look for me, tell him that I'm gone. He has lost his martial arts, and nothing will happen to him." Mingzhu looked at him gratefully. At this moment, the melancholy of the upcoming parting couldn't be resolved. Jin, forced a smile, "The emperor still hopes that elder brother will take care of you."
Gongsun Qingming wanted to say something, but he noticed that there seemed to be someone at the end of the corridor.
"Auntie!" Xiao Xuanyi's shout suddenly came.
Mingzhu hurriedly put the vial into her sleeve, then turned to look at Xiao Xuanyi who was rushing towards her.Xiao Xuanyi ran in front of her, but there was no smile on his small face. He grabbed Mingzhu's hand and said hurriedly, "Auntie, Uncle Huang said that you want to travel with him. Where are you going? I want to go too. "
"Your Majesty." Mingzhu heard him say this, and reached out to caress his little face, "Uncle Huang and I won't go for long."
"But I just want to go with you." Xiao Xuanyi pouted.
Gongsun Qingming looked at him and said in a coaxing tone, "Your Majesty, the prince and concubine are tired. They want to go out for a walk. The emperor likes the prince and concubine so much, so he will definitely agree, right? And even if it is a trip, They also write to the emperor. The emperor can write back to them too. Isn't it interesting."
"Write a letter?" Xiao Xuanyi opened his eyes wide, shining brightly, "Can I write a letter?"
Mingzhu nodded, "Of course."
"One letter in three days?" Xiao Xuanyi began to discuss.
"Okay." Mingzhu agreed.
Feng Zhanxiu also walked behind the three of them.His tall body was like a wall, but at this moment, his evil and charming appearance showed a hint of softness.Xiao Xuanyi held Mingzhu's hand with one hand, and Feng Zhanxiu's hand with the other, tugging at their hands.Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu bent down at the same time, getting closer to him.
Xiao Xuanyi kissed their faces, and hugged them one by one, "Uncle, Aunt, you have to come back early. I will be very obedient and obedient, and I will not be lazy. When you come back, I will grow up." , then I can protect my aunt."
It's so easy, it makes people want to cry immediately.
Mingzhu's eyes turned sour, and she hugged him back, "My aunt is also looking forward to it, when my aunt comes back, Xuan Yi has grown up."
"Auntie, you have to be obedient. Don't keep arguing with the emperor." Xiao Xuanyi reminded her like a little adult.
Mingzhu wanted to laugh a little, but wanted to cry even more, "Don't worry, my aunt will never quarrel with the emperor's uncle again."
"That's good." Xiao Xuanyi nodded reassuringly.
Mingzhu let go of her hand and stood up.She and Feng Zhanxiu stood in front of Xiao Xuanyi together, but knelt down at the same time tacitly, "Long live the emperor, long live, long live."
"Uncle, Aunt, get up quickly." Xiao Xuanyi hurriedly reached out to help.
But the things in the sleeves also fell out at this time, and fell to the ground with a "clang".
Xiao Xuanyi went to pick it up again, and said in a clear child's voice, "Uncle Huang said, as long as I have this, I can have whatever I want!"
Gongsun Qingming looked at the golden soldier talisman in Xiao Xuanyi's hand, and smiled slightly.
Eunuch De came out from the end of the corridor with a few young eunuchs, and slowly shouted, "Your Majesty, Prince, Concubine, Your Excellency!"
"Eunuch De." Mingzhu looked at him and said with a sigh, "My lord and I will be away for a few days, and the emperor hopes that you will take good care of me. Eunuch has worked hard."
It's really not easy for this old minister who has assisted for several dynasties.
Eunuch De was very surprised, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground, "The princess said it before, this is what a slave should do! When will the princess leave?"
"Immediately." Mingzhu patted his hands, then turned to look at Feng Zhanxiu.
Feng Zhanxiu clasped his fists and shouted, "I bid farewell!"
The three of them watched Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu turn and leave. Xiao Xuanyi ran forward a few steps and shouted loudly, "Uncle Emperor! Auntie! Come back quickly! Come back quickly——"
The figures of the two finally disappeared before their eyes.
※※※
Regent's House
Since the prince and princess decided to go out, the group hurriedly packed up all the soft and big and small things.All the horses and carriages were prepared outside the palace, waiting for the two of them to return from the palace, and then they could leave.The twelve cavalrymen and Xia'er waited patiently, while the cavalrymen were very lively and happy.
"Sister, shall we go to the Western Regions?"
"Why did you go to the Western Regions?"
"exactly!"
"Hey? Lianren and the others are there! We haven't seen each other for a long time, should we also go and see those beautiful boys?"
When the girls heard it, they seemed to think it made sense.
"I don't know what they look like now? Maybe they will become great beauties!"
"Tsk tsk!"
Xia'er grabbed the soft package on her body, but kept staring at the intersection ahead, waiting for the figure to flash.Among the group, only she knew that this was not a happy trip at all, but the beginning of a great change and separation.But the master has already decided that she only has to follow.
"Xia'er, don't be so nervous, okay?"
"That's right! Be happy! Think about it, where are we going?"
"Marry you first!"
The girls broke up again.
Suddenly, the sound of horseshoes sounded around the corner, and the two rode towards them on horseback.The crowd showed surprise and greeted him hastily and respectfully.When the two of them rode in front of them, they knelt down on one knee and shouted, "Master! The subordinates are fully prepared! You can set off immediately!"
"Twelve cavalrymen!" Feng Zhanxiu shouted in a deep voice with his black hair flying in the wind.
"Yes!" The girls responded immediately.
"I will set you free now. You can go back to Yicheng, or you can stay in the capital, as you like." Feng Zhanxiu said slowly.
All the girls raised their heads in panic, but they didn't understand, "Master doesn't want us anymore?"
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, and just said lightly, "Choose a good family and marry."
"Master..." The girls choked up.
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes swept across the girls, and they have been inseparable for such a long time. Although they are masters and servants, they have deep feelings.Seeing the red eyes of each of them, he deliberately ignored them, and said in a deep voice, "We are leaving, I hope to see you next time, you are all married."
"Don't stay here!" He shouted in a low voice, and rode away.
Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu rode their horses over the crowd, but Xia Er still followed.
The girls looked at the direction where the three left, very sad, but also a blessing.
After a long time, someone shouted angrily, "Why only Xia'er can follow!"
"It's so unfair!"
At dusk, Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu settled down in a small town not far from the capital.It's a small town, very simple.There are two wing rooms, one for the two of them, and one for Xia'er.Before eating, the two held hands and walked along the long bluestone slab by the lakeside of the town.
The lake water is very clear and green, with aquatic plants floating.
Occasionally, a small boat shuttles through it, and the boatman paddles across the lake, causing ripples.
The sky gradually darkened, it was already June.
Mingzhu turned around and watched him walk backwards.She looked at his handsome face, wanting to see him carefully and thoroughly, to see clearly.It seems that after today, their parting will be far away.She smiled and smiled again, and Feng Zhanxiu also smiled.She stopped, and he stopped too.
She stood in front of him and looked at him quietly, with the deep attachment hidden in her eyes.
"Feng Zhanxiu."
"kindness?"
"Xia'er said just now that the amount of silver is too little. I'm afraid it won't be enough. Have you brought it yet?"
"No."
"Then what should I do?" Mingzhu said with a smile, her eyes rolled sharply, "You look so good-looking, when the money is not enough, I will sell you."
Feng Zhan Xiujun's face sank, he stretched out his hand, put his arms around her waist and pulled her into his arms, "If you dare to sell me, let's see how I deal with you."
"I'm so scared." Mingzhu rested her head on his chest, wrapped her arms around him, and closed her eyes.
"Hungry." He suddenly spit out two words.
Mingzhu took his hand sharply and ran towards the inn, "Let's go! Let's eat!"
※※※
Wing of the inn
The two sat face to face, three dishes and one soup, very simple, each with a bowl of rice, it felt like an old married couple.
After dinner, Mingzhu made a cup of tea.Holding the teacup, she walked slowly to Feng Zhanxiu, and put the teacup down.Feng Zhanxiu picked up the teacup, and Mingzhu watched him drink the tea.The two sat quietly for a while, washed and combed, went to bed and lay down.In the dark wing, his powerful arms are pillows.
In the darkness, Mingzhu leaned against him and said softly, "Zhan Xiu, can you sing to me?"
"I can only sing one song," he said awkwardly.
"That's the one." Mingzhu was very resolute.
Feng Zhanxiu retracted her arms, and a deep male voice hovered above her head, "There are beauties, and you will never forget them. If you don't see them for a day, you will miss them like crazy. The phoenix is soaring, seeking phoenixes from all over the world, but the beauty is helpless." Xi, not on the east wall. Let the Qin replace the words, chat and write from the bottom of my heart, and wish that the words are worthy of virtue, and join hands with each other."
"When will I see Xu Xi, comfort me..."
"Don't fly, let me perish, make me perish..."
Mingzhu closed her eyes and murmured, "Why did you sing this song?"
"My mother and concubine used to sing this song every day. She said it was my father who sang it to her." Feng Zhanxiu said in a deep voice, suddenly feeling heavy eyelids, he also closed his eyes, his voice became more and more Light, so light that only the sound of breathing remains, "Mingzhu... I'm a little sleepy..."
Mingzhu patted him lightly, "Go to sleep."
The night was getting deeper, and Feng Zhanxiu was already asleep.
Mingzhu was awake, she let go of his arms around her and got out of bed.Half squatting on the edge of the bed, staring at his handsome sleeping face.It was dark and chaotic in front of his eyes, and his handsome face was very blurred.She reached out and stroked his facial features inch by inch, remembering him clearly for the last time.
"Goodbye." Mingzhu said softly, probably never seeing each other again...
It's completely over.
Mingzhu reluctantly withdrew her hand, took out the dagger, cut off a lock of her black hair, and put the letter she had prepared a long time ago beside his pillow.She just stood up and left resolutely.As soon as the door was opened, the door of the opposite wing room also opened at the same time.
Xia Er tidied up her clothes and walked to her side, "Master."
"Let's go." Mingzhu glanced back at him, closed the door and left.
There is a moon in the night sky, and the silver moonlight shines through the window.And Feng Zhanxiu who was on the collapsed bed suddenly opened his eyes, feeling a headache and feeling weak all over.He touched his side, there was no one there, and the temperature was freezing.Feng Zhanxiu woke up startled, looking for her figure.
But in the dark room, she had long since disappeared.
Feng Zhanxiu called out to the silent room, "Pearl?"
For a long time, no one responded.
"Pearl?" He called out again.
But still no one responded.
Feng Zhanxiu was a little anxious, he lifted the quilt and wanted to find her.But as soon as his feet touched the ground, he fell back to the bed and collapsed.Feng Zhanxiu clenched his fists again, surprised at his weakness in limbs, recalling everything, he couldn't believe it, and he was afraid and hesitant, his expression was suddenly hazy and dazed.
And out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of two things beside the pillow, and he grabbed them with trembling hands.
It was a lock of black hair.
There is another letter.
Feng Zhanxiu opened the letter and looked at the content written in the letter by the moonlight.Suddenly, he angrily threw the letter into the air, and his red eyes burst out with cold air, as if he wanted to kill the common people.He laughed softly again, and his laughter made people feel eerie in the silent night.
It turned out to be Heli, it turned out to be a letter from Heli.
Feng Zhanxiu squeezed his black hair tightly, and he was just talking to himself, "The black hair cuts off the love... the black hair cuts off the love... Ye Mingzhu...you are so cruel...you are so cruel...how can you Are you willing to let me go alone...how can you be willing...could it be because I won't give you a child..."
"Didn't you say that the ends of the earth will follow me?"
"Night Pearl..."
"You are not allowed to go... you are not allowed to go..."
He stuffed the lock of black hair into his chest, gritted his teeth and stood up.With black hair hanging over his shoulders, he looked crazy and frightened.And those eyes exuded faint blue flames, as if possessed by a demon.
In the deserted town, it seemed that he was the only one left in the world.
The shadow was stretched very long, as if laughing at someone.
The early summer wind blows by, but there is no warmth at all.
Surrounded by silence, Feng Zhanxiu walked out of the town like a ghost.He didn't know where to go, let alone where she went.Just a footprint, a footprint, looking for the trace of her departure.The bundle of black hair in his arms, pressed against his chest, made him feel a little chilly.
There was endless darkness in front of him, and he hurried forward for tens of miles.
It turned out to be a cliff.
One step forward is already a cliff.
Nearly ten black-clothed killers suddenly flew down from behind, the silver light of the blades was so cold that flashed through their eyes, but their eyes were full of cruel killing intent.
The killer dragged his knife and walked hurriedly, attacking him.
The moon shone down, and the blade rubbed against the ground to emit a dazzling red light.
Feng Zhanxiu ignored the killer who was attacking him, just stood there blankly, looking for the direction where she left.Those killers had already attacked him, and their blades were slashing at him.Those pitch-black eyes were empty, Feng Zhanxiu suddenly raised his head to look at the curved moon, raised and lowered the blade.
Fresh blood flowed out diligently, and the smell of blood spread in the air, gradually becoming dignified.
Feng Zhanxiu didn't seem to feel any pain, but slowly lowered his head.With a big black palm, the strength of the whole body rebounded, and the blade in his body was pulled out. The eagle eyes stared at the killer in front of him, and asked in a deep voice, "Who sent you here! Tell me! Who is it!"
Could it be you?Mingzhu, do you really want to kill me?
The killer didn't expect him to have such strength, but was ejected several feet away by his airway, spit out a mouthful of blood immediately, and passed out.
what happened?Didn't Zhan Wang hit Hua Gong San?
"Kill!" Someone shouted, and the crowd besieged him again.
Feng Zhanxiu's limbs were weak, and his head was very dizzy.
My eyes were blurry, and I couldn't even see who was who.His palm was cold, like a dying beast.But the beast is still ferocious even at the last moment.With a stretch of his long arm, he directly twisted the two hands of the man, and kicked the other man away with his legs.
"Say it!" Feng Zhanxiu yelled sharply and grabbed a killer by the neck.
The killer touched the ground with his toes, unable to breathe in pain, "Yes..."
Feng Zhanxiu's heart tightened, and the strength in his hands increased at the same time.Before the killer could finish speaking, he rolled his eyes, stopped struggling, and fell from his hand.His hand loosened slightly, and the last bit of strength was exhausted, and even his fingers seemed to be stiff.The legs stepped on the ground, as if they were stepping on cotton.
Feeling dizzy for a while, Feng Zhanxiu was so weak that he couldn't continue to support himself, and fell down in panic.
But he didn't let himself fall down completely, he just knelt on one knee, trying to be brave.
"She sent you to kill me." Feng Zhanxiu's quiet voice hovered, a little hoarse.
The killers squinted their eyes, looked at each other, moved their wrists, and stabbed at him again.
The blade pierced through his body in an instant, and someone's murmur was like a nightmare, constantly echoing in his ears.
The two faces alternated constantly and flashed in my mind.
"Don't come here! Ah! The thing I regret the most is that I gave birth to you! I never gave birth to you!"
"Kill you! Just kill you!"
"Why can't you die, why can't you die, monster, you monster!"
The woman's face was covered with blood, and it suddenly turned into anger and grief, and she became another person.
"You chose this woman...Auntie will fulfill you...perfect you...but I...will not forgive you...your father and king will not forgive you...if Auntie goes to hell...does a ghost... I want to watch you too..."
"Look at this woman...she will definitely betray you..."
With two pairs of eyes fixed on him, Feng Zhanxiu hugged his head in pain and roared, "Ah—"
Ye Mingzhu, why even you have to leave me.Why even you have to choose to leave me.
No one, no one will always be by his side.
Not a single one.
"Mingzhu..." Feng Zhanxiu snorted, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, he murmured, "Ye Mingzhu..."
The killers pulled out their blades with all their strength, and the flying blood splashed in all directions.
Feng Zhanxiu lowered his head, his black hair was loose, covering his handsome face.Finally, he no longer had the strength to fight back, raised the corners of his lips, held his last breath, roared, and flew towards the cliff.Something fell out of the clothes, but the light was covered by blood.
The killers ran to the edge of the cliff, looked down, and in the blink of an eye, he fell into the abyss.
And that roar is mixed with shrill, angry, hesitant, sad... people still feel palpitations.
"what should I do now?"
"The King of War was seriously injured, and the cliff is so deep, it's impossible for him not to die!" The killer in the lead shouted coldly, "Let's go back immediately! The King of War is dead!"
The hooves of the horse flew up, breathing out turbid air.drowned in the night.
But in the desolate bushes in the outskirts, there are a few raised hills.

Miyakonojo
The palace was heavily guarded, and after another hour, the eunuchs took over alternately.
It was not yet dawn, and in the darkness of the night, there was only one person of medium build, slightly fatter, but his steps were very steady.Wearing an indigo palace uniform, he hurried towards the eunuchs.Looking around again, he seemed to be cautious, and then asked in a deep voice, "How is the matter going!"
"Return to the father-in-law! Everything is going well!" Someone stepped forward and said in a low voice.
"Where's the corpse?"
"Buried!"
The person in the indigo palace uniform was silent, and it took a long time before he said, "Okay!"
He turned around and walked back to the hall, the dark clouds dispersed, the moonlight shone on his face, and a pair of sharp eyes were faintly visible.The indigo palace clothes symbolized his status in the palace.
And this person is none other than Eunuch De!
Eunuch De lowered his head and ran into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, where Xiao Xuanyi was sleeping soundly in the sleeping hall.The little man was very handsome, and he could be vaguely seen, somewhat similar to the man in his memory.
"Princess Qin, you can finally rest in peace!"
(End of this chapter)
Nanchang State
In the main hall of the imperial palace, the ladies of the court attend on the left and right.
Behind the agate bead curtain, the queen of Nanchang Kingdom sat on the dragon chair.Wearing a nine-color phoenix suit, the skirt spread out like a peacock, covering the phoenix boots, only revealing a small spot.Long eyelashes covered her eyelids, her expression looked very condensed, and her red Danko nails were extremely enchanting, reflecting her red lips.
"Bring people up!" the queen said lightly.
"Yes!" The female officer in the hall responded immediately.
Not long after, several guards brought a woman into the hall.The woman was still wearing night clothes, her hands were tied behind her back, and she was stabbed in the chest. Although the blood stopped, her face was pale and weak.I am afraid that this is caused by too much blood loss.There are several bruises on her face, which appear to have been stabbed with a sword.
"Kneel quickly!" the guard shouted, and forced the woman to the ground.
The queen said slowly, "No!"
The guard didn't dare to make a mistake, and hurriedly bowed his head and retreated.
Through the agate bead curtain, a bloodthirsty light flashed through the eyes of the queen, and she said softly, "Guardian Yun, you are so courageous. You even broke into the palace alone. But you are one step away, and he is no longer in the sky prison."
Yun Ni turned her head away arrogantly, ignoring it.
"Where is Dong Xuanyi's life?" the queen asked again.
Yun Ni met her, her eyes pierced the eye-catching bead curtain, and she said coldly, "He's just a child, why should the empress kill him all?"
"Are you accusing me of being cruel?" The Queen raised the corners of her lips and smiled lightly.
Yun Ni stared at her, and asked hesitantly, "What grudge does the empress have with Daxing!"
The queen chuckled softly, and her smile made Yun Ni even more suspicious.The queen stood up directly, and the maid stretched out her hand to lift the bead curtain.Yun Ni looked at her squarely, and saw that she walked gracefully, slowly stepped off the dragon chair, and walked in front of Yun Ni.Yun Ni was startled, and saw her expression slowly change.
The indifference faded away, mixed with innumerable undercurrents.
The empress stared at her with her phoenix eyes, and said quietly, "You are also dying soon, you don't need to know."
At this time, Zhongli was brought into the hall by two guards.
The queen shouted softly, "Everyone back down."
"Yes!" All the people in the hall responded in unison and retreated one after another.
Yun Ni's back stiffened immediately, and she felt two scorching gazes behind her. She turned around slowly, and saw him whom she hadn't seen for several months.Zhongli stood in front of her, so close.He seemed to be a little thinner than before he left.Yintang was black and his eyes were red.
The crowd respectfully walked up to the queen, knelt down, and shouted in a deep voice, "Your Majesty!"
"Do you know what to do?" the queen asked with a smile.
"This subordinate knows." Zhongli replied firmly.
"Okay." The queen nodded with satisfaction, and said earnestly, "Don't let me down."
"Subordinates must complete the task." Zhongli promised.
Only then did the empress take steps, her phoenix dress tugged at the floor, she turned her back to her, "Take her down, and then set off immediately!"
"Yes!"
The sound of footsteps gradually faded away, and the queen turned her head to look out of the Huadiao window, only to see the blue sky and white clouds, and the weather was fine.But beside her ears, there was someone's gentle female voice, so real, she could never let go of it for the rest of her life.She thought of that poem, and read it out, "The day is sunny and the clouds are bright... The night comes and the pearl is a little bright..."
Sister, where are you and Brother Gu now?
※※※
Decades ago
In the General's Mansion of Nanchang Kingdom, two young daughters knelt down in front of their father who was a general.This is a pair of sisters, they are as beautiful as hibiscus.They are the only two daughters of the old general, so they have been favored since birth and lead a carefree life.
But the father's decision forced the two to face a separation.
Since the elder sister Ah Qing had promised to the old general's favorite subordinate Gu Lang, the younger sister A Lian was selected.
But the day before his departure, his older sister Chu Qing brought her younger sister Chu Lian to his father's room.
"Father, my sister and Brother Gu are in love with each other! Ah Qing has nothing to do with me, and is willing to marry my sister." Chu Qing pleaded.
Chu Lian suddenly turned her head to look at her sister, her eyes were full of fear.
"Gu Lang? Ah Qing! He is your future husband!" The old general shouted sharply, "No way! The candidate has been agreed upon! It must be Alian!"
Chu Lian lowered her head, bit her lips tightly and remained silent.
"Father, my sister has a general's flesh and blood in her womb." Chu Qing spoke the truth in a very soft voice.
The old general was stunned and angry, and yelled, "What? A-Lian! Is there such a thing?"
"Daughter... my daughter is indeed pregnant with the general's flesh and blood!" Chu Lian stretched out her hand to touch her lower abdomen, but she couldn't tell.
"Presumptuous!" The old general was furious.
"Father! Hongdi only saw the portrait, but didn't recognize A-Lian. My daughter is willing to marry on her behalf!" Chu Qing said firmly, as if he had made up his mind a long time ago.
Chu Lian heard her sister say this, but couldn't say a word.
It turns out that sister, she knows everything...
"It's the only way to go now! Ah Qing, prepare quickly! We will leave tomorrow!" The general had a headache, but there was nothing he could do.
The two sisters returned to their rooms.
Chu Lian knelt down in front of her sister, but Chu Qing hurriedly helped her up and hugged her.
"Sister, I..."
Chu Qing only said lightly, "My sister doesn't blame you."
Chu Lian burst into tears like rain, crying silently.
From then on, Ah Lian became Ah Qing, and Ah Qing became Ah Lian.Qinglian Qinglian, they are twin sisters.But A-Lian did not expect that that night of selfish indulgence, that night of stealing and changing positions, caused two scars that will never be erased.I just still remember their promise back then.
"A-Lian, do you still remember the random poems we wrote back then?"
"Which one?"
"The sun is sunny and the clouds are bright..."
As soon as Chu Qing uttered the first half of the poem, Chu Lian immediately read the second half, "Ye Lai Baozhu points out."
"Alian, can my sister make an agreement with you?"
"What agreement?"
"When the child is born, if it's a boy, it's called Qingming, and if it's a girl, it's called Mingzhu."
"it is good!"
Zhongli took Yun Ni to a secluded palace in the palace, which was his recent residence.Passing by the imperial garden on the way, Yun Ni saw the pond full of lotus flowers blooming incomparably luxuriantly.After entering the main hall, Zhong Li immediately untied Yun Ni.The palace was empty and silent.
As soon as the thick rope was loosened, Yun Ni looked at Zhongli and said hurriedly, "We'll leave right away!"
After the words fell, Yun Ni stretched out her hand to grab Zhongli's hand, as if she was about to leave.
But Zhongli stopped.
Yun Ni looked at him in confusion, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong? Are you greedy for life and afraid of death?" In fact, she knew that he was definitely not a person who was afraid of death. As a spy, as a killer, he had already seen through life and death.But until now, he is still unwilling to leave.In desperation, she slipped and said something stupid.
Zhong Li stared at her, his eyes filled with depths.
It took a long time to calm down, and said calmly, "You have been poisoned, I can't let you die."
Yun Ni was taken aback when she heard him say that, and let go of his hand.She sneaked into the palace secretly and was caught after trying to save him but failed.Because of the sword wound, she was unconscious, and she didn't know what happened.It was just that she suddenly remembered what the empress said just now, and she finally understood what it meant.
"You're dying too, you don't need to know."
It turned out to be the case.
But at this time, Yun Ni suddenly felt touched for no reason.
In this world, there are people who miss her and worry about her.Even if there is only one person.
"You can live here with peace of mind, and you can ask for anything you need." Zhongli urged, his eyebrows frowning, and he said firmly, "I'm going!"
Seeing him striding out of the hall, Yun Ni felt terrified that she would never see him again.She took a step forward and couldn't help shouting, "Wait!"
Zhongli suddenly stopped and looked back at her.
Yun Ni hesitated for a while before asking, "The gouache paper bag...do you still keep it?" She was a little embarrassed, but she didn't dare to look at him. When her eyes flickered, she had already shifted away.
Zhongli remained silent, just walked in front of her.He reached into his chest and placed his fist in front of her.Yun Ni looked down at his clenched fist, opened it carefully, and saw the gouache paper bag in her palm.On the paper package is the small seal script she wrote back then, but the handwriting is already blurred.
He has always been a silent and rigid man, but he always carries this little thing with him.
In the same body as you, this life wish is enough.
Yun Ni murmured in her heart, thought a lot, and then said what was in her heart, "Why don't we go together."
Now both of them have been poisoned, and they don't know how many days they can live.But if she can live day by day, she wants to spend some leisure time with him.And she was even more afraid that he would never return, he would understand how King Zhan treats his concubine.The empress ordered him to take the princess to Nanchang, which was a death sentence.
"The empress you have been loyal to has treated you like this, do you want to continue to be loyal to her?" Yun Ni asked.
Zhongli put the gouache paper bag back into his skirt, his resolute face remained unmoved, "I have something to tell you when I come back."
"What words!" Yun Ni was eager to know the reason.
Zhong Li raised the corners of his lips, just reaching out to touch her face.But the hand was still frozen in the air, and finally fell down.
"Wait for me." After saying these two words, he turned and left without looking back.
Yun Ni was taken aback for a moment, but the uneasiness became more and more serious.

One month later
Queen's bedroom - Fengxiao Palace
The maids waved the plantain fans, the phoenix collapsed, and Empress Chu Qing was resting on her side with her eyes closed.
Suddenly, a bird flew to the window and sang crisply.
Chu Qing opened her eyes, looked at the bird, and said softly, "I want to rest, you all stand back."
"Yes!" The maids immediately stopped their movements and all exited the bedroom.
After the people left, Chu Qing got up anxiously.Her temples were slightly disheveled, but her eyes burst out with the light of expectation.She ran to the bird as if she were running to someone longing.Chu Qing took out a small bottle from his sleeve, pulled off the cap, and shook the bottle mouth at the bird.
The bird responded immediately, spitting out a round soft object from its mouth.
Chu Qing carefully opened it, and inside was a small ball of paper.She pulled the ball of paper away and saw a line of small characters written on the ball of paper.
"Please accidentally hurt Zhongli and Yunni."
There are only a few numbers, but the word "please" is used.
Chu Qing stared at the ball of paper and looked again and again, but her eyes felt sour for a while.Could it be that he really won the world, but lost his closest relative?Chu Qing always remembered his pair of silent eyes, standing in front of her, the stranger was worse than a passerby.But he happened to be her son, the son she had to give up.
Back then, Brother Gu couldn't worry about his sister, so he sneaked away after all.It was only a year, and the elder sister had just given birth, and both of them were killed by Emperor Hong.And she was no longer Chu Lian, but Chu Qing.In order to continue to survive, and to avenge Brother Gu and her sister one day, she had no choice but to give up her child and choose to marry the prince.
Unexpectedly, her Qingming was still alive.
When we met many years later, he was already a businessman in nine countries.
He was dressed in white, and the young man who talked and laughed lightly was the child she shared with Big Brother Gu.
"Qingming, my child..."
"Princess, you have identified the wrong person."
"But you are my child, you are my child!"
"Child? I thought you would treat me as dead from the day you decided to throw me away."
"Listen to me, I have my reasons."
"Sorry? It's a pity that I'm not interested in listening. Please come back, Crown Princess."
"I...I want to ask you one thing. You personally killed Dong Yanhong for me."
"Why should I promise you?"
"Just pretend...just pretend that I gave birth to you, and you return my love."
"Okay! See off!"
Chu Qing immediately took out a pen and ink and wrote a line of small characters, rolled it into a ball of paper and stuffed it back into the round object.She put something close to the bird's beak, the bird opened its beak, swallowed it, flapped its wings and flew away.
Shengxin Dynasty
Miyakonojo
Martial Arts Field in the Palace
Xiao Xuanyi is doing boxing, he is already five years old.A five-year-old child is innocent and cute.The full heaven, a pair of dark eyes, so bright, so bright.The small figure gestured with fists and feet, resembling each other.In a few years, he will grow into a man who can stand upright.
Looking at him, Feng Zhanxiu suddenly had a deep longing.
She longed to have a child like him.I'm afraid it's just a dream.
Xiao Xuanyi immediately ran to Feng Zhanxiu after finishing a whole set of boxing, raised his head and looked at him expectantly, without blinking his eyes, and asked anxiously, "Uncle Emperor, how is my fight? Is it better than before?" progress?"
Feng Zhanxiu lowered his head and stared at him, but did not speak for a long time.
His silence made Xiao Xuanyi a little nervous, and Fox asked, "Did I not play well?"
damn!The emperor seems to be angry!
Feng Zhanxiu raised the corners of his lips with a smile of joy.The little guy's tangled face filled his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Very well."
"Really?" Xiao Xuanyi changed his expression instantly and asked happily.
Feng Zhanxiu nodded, and slowly squatted down in front of him.He took out an item from his pocket and held it in front of Xiao Xuanyi.Xiao Xuanyi stared at the boxy hard thing and looked again and again, but with a blank expression on his face, he asked curiously, "Uncle Huang, what is this?"
"Your majesty, you have to hold it well." Feng Zhanxiu grabbed his little hand and put the soldier talisman into his hand.
"Handsome?" Xiao Xuanyi was even more confused as he read the above words.
"This thing is called a military talisman, and it is very important. As long as the emperor has this, the whole world belongs to the emperor." Feng Zhanxiu explained simply, and added, "Whatever the emperor wants, he can get."
"So powerful?" Xiao Xuanyi took it seriously, carefully holding the soldier talisman and said, "Then I must take good care of it."
"The emperor can give this thing to the prime minister, and he will dedicate everything the emperor wants to the emperor." Feng Zhanxiu's amber eyes were soaked by the sun, and there was a gleam of light.
Xiao Xuanyi thought for a moment, then looked at him again, "I only want the emperor, aunt, uncle Gongsun and father-in-law."
"When the emperor grows up, he will know." Feng Zhanxiu said helplessly because of his childishness.
Xiao Xuanyi frowned when he heard him say that, "Why did Eunuch De say that, so I want to grow up quickly."
"Your Majesty." Feng Zhanxiu shouted, his voice lowered a bit, "I want to leave the Emperor for a few days."
"Where is Uncle Huang going? Did he quarrel with Auntie again? Has Auntie lived in Uncle Gongsun's house again? Xiao Xuanyi asked anxiously, and immediately showed reluctance, and hugged him, "Auntie is really not good !Uncle, don't go!I'll let my aunt live back in the palace immediately!You don't want to go! "
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, reached out and touched his little head, "I'm going with her, so I have to leave for a few days."
Xiao Xuanyi breathed a sigh of relief, but still reluctantly said, "It turns out that Uncle Huang and Auntie are leaving together! When will you be back?"
"soon."
"How fast is it?" Xiao Xuanyi started to make mistakes again, and insisted on asking the end.
"Your Majesty, the two of us will not be by your side in the future, so we must be careful in everything. During this period of time, I can't accompany the emperor to practice martial arts, so the emperor can't be lazy." Since when did he see him as his own child.
This child who bothered him and made him worry.
"Then uncle and aunt take me there!" Xiao Xuanyi began to act like a spoiled child.
"The emperor wants to live in the palace." Feng Zhanxiu stood up and looked at him condescendingly, "The time has come, it's time to go back."
"Then I won't be the emperor anymore." Xiao Xuanyi blurted out, holding his big hand habitually, and walked back towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.From time to time he looked up at him, eager to follow.
Feng Zhanxiu frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Don't say this again in the future, Auntie will be unhappy if she hears it."
"I won't talk about it." Xiao Xuanyi pursed her lips and muttered again secretly, "But I really don't want to do it!"
※※※
Mingzhu and Gongsun Qingming calculated that it was almost time, so they walked out of the hall and waited.
Gongsun Qingming turned his head and glanced at Mingzhu, his sculpted side face was full of warmth, he moved his lips, and there was an unresolved melancholy between his brows, it seemed that he was not the usual graceful him.He moved his lips and said in a deep voice, "You really want to do this?"
"When he asked me to drink that bowl of soup, I had already made up my mind." Mingzhu smiled slightly, but her heart was silent.She looked back at him and said lightly, "Give it to me."
"Don't think about it again?" Gongsun Qingming asked again, trying to change her decision.
Mingzhu shook her head and said softly, "Since there will be no results, why should I be persistent."
Gongsun Qingming sighed and had no choice but to take out the vial from his sleeve.Mingzhu reached out to take it, but trembled slightly. Looking at the vial in her hand, she heard Gongsun Qingming's distant male voice, "This is Huagong powder, colorless and odorless. Once you take it, your internal energy will be dissipated. Be careful. "
"I see." Mingzhu murmured, "Thank you brother."
"Then where are you going?" Gongsun Qingming couldn't help asking.
Mingzhu thought for a long time, but said in a muffled voice, "I don't know either. Just walk around, the sky is big and the earth is big. Just like the elder brother said, there is no home everywhere, is there home everywhere, isn't it?"
"Hehe." Gongsun Qingming couldn't help chuckling, and reminded him, "Remember to come back."
"If he comes back to look for me, tell him that I'm gone. He has lost his martial arts, and nothing will happen to him." Mingzhu looked at him gratefully. At this moment, the melancholy of the upcoming parting couldn't be resolved. Jin, forced a smile, "The emperor still hopes that elder brother will take care of you."
Gongsun Qingming wanted to say something, but he noticed that there seemed to be someone at the end of the corridor.
"Auntie!" Xiao Xuanyi's shout suddenly came.
Mingzhu hurriedly put the vial into her sleeve, then turned to look at Xiao Xuanyi who was rushing towards her.Xiao Xuanyi ran in front of her, but there was no smile on his small face. He grabbed Mingzhu's hand and said hurriedly, "Auntie, Uncle Huang said that you want to travel with him. Where are you going? I want to go too. "
"Your Majesty." Mingzhu heard him say this, and reached out to caress his little face, "Uncle Huang and I won't go for long."
"But I just want to go with you." Xiao Xuanyi pouted.
Gongsun Qingming looked at him and said in a coaxing tone, "Your Majesty, the prince and concubine are tired. They want to go out for a walk. The emperor likes the prince and concubine so much, so he will definitely agree, right? And even if it is a trip, They also write to the emperor. The emperor can write back to them too. Isn't it interesting."
"Write a letter?" Xiao Xuanyi opened his eyes wide, shining brightly, "Can I write a letter?"
Mingzhu nodded, "Of course."
"One letter in three days?" Xiao Xuanyi began to discuss.
"Okay." Mingzhu agreed.
Feng Zhanxiu also walked behind the three of them.His tall body was like a wall, but at this moment, his evil and charming appearance showed a hint of softness.Xiao Xuanyi held Mingzhu's hand with one hand, and Feng Zhanxiu's hand with the other, tugging at their hands.Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu bent down at the same time, getting closer to him.
Xiao Xuanyi kissed their faces, and hugged them one by one, "Uncle, Aunt, you have to come back early. I will be very obedient and obedient, and I will not be lazy. When you come back, I will grow up." , then I can protect my aunt."
It's so easy, it makes people want to cry immediately.
Mingzhu's eyes turned sour, and she hugged him back, "My aunt is also looking forward to it, when my aunt comes back, Xuan Yi has grown up."
"Auntie, you have to be obedient. Don't keep arguing with the emperor." Xiao Xuanyi reminded her like a little adult.
Mingzhu wanted to laugh a little, but wanted to cry even more, "Don't worry, my aunt will never quarrel with the emperor's uncle again."
"That's good." Xiao Xuanyi nodded reassuringly.
Mingzhu let go of her hand and stood up.She and Feng Zhanxiu stood in front of Xiao Xuanyi together, but knelt down at the same time tacitly, "Long live the emperor, long live, long live."
"Uncle, Aunt, get up quickly." Xiao Xuanyi hurriedly reached out to help.
But the things in the sleeves also fell out at this time, and fell to the ground with a "clang".
Xiao Xuanyi went to pick it up again, and said in a clear child's voice, "Uncle Huang said, as long as I have this, I can have whatever I want!"
Gongsun Qingming looked at the golden soldier talisman in Xiao Xuanyi's hand, and smiled slightly.
Eunuch De came out from the end of the corridor with a few young eunuchs, and slowly shouted, "Your Majesty, Prince, Concubine, Your Excellency!"
"Eunuch De." Mingzhu looked at him and said with a sigh, "My lord and I will be away for a few days, and the emperor hopes that you will take good care of me. Eunuch has worked hard."
It's really not easy for this old minister who has assisted for several dynasties.
Eunuch De was very surprised, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground, "The princess said it before, this is what a slave should do! When will the princess leave?"
"Immediately." Mingzhu patted his hands, then turned to look at Feng Zhanxiu.
Feng Zhanxiu clasped his fists and shouted, "I bid farewell!"
The three of them watched Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu turn and leave. Xiao Xuanyi ran forward a few steps and shouted loudly, "Uncle Emperor! Auntie! Come back quickly! Come back quickly——"
The figures of the two finally disappeared before their eyes.

Regent's House
Since the prince and princess decided to go out, the group hurriedly packed up all the soft and big and small things.All the horses and carriages were prepared outside the palace, waiting for the two of them to return from the palace, and then they could leave.The twelve cavalrymen and Xia'er waited patiently, while the cavalrymen were very lively and happy.
"Sister, shall we go to the Western Regions?"
"Why did you go to the Western Regions?"
"exactly!"
"Hey? Lianren and the others are there! We haven't seen each other for a long time, should we also go and see those beautiful boys?"
When the girls heard it, they seemed to think it made sense.
"I don't know what they look like now? Maybe they will become great beauties!"
"Tsk tsk!"
Xia'er grabbed the soft package on her body, but kept staring at the intersection ahead, waiting for the figure to flash.Among the group, only she knew that this was not a happy trip at all, but the beginning of a great change and separation.But the master has already decided that she only has to follow.
"Xia'er, don't be so nervous, okay?"
"That's right! Be happy! Think about it, where are we going?"
"Marry you first!"
The girls broke up again.
Suddenly, the sound of horseshoes sounded around the corner, and the two rode towards them on horseback.The crowd showed surprise and greeted him hastily and respectfully.When the two of them rode in front of them, they knelt down on one knee and shouted, "Master! The subordinates are fully prepared! You can set off immediately!"
"Twelve cavalrymen!" Feng Zhanxiu shouted in a deep voice with his black hair flying in the wind.
"Yes!" The girls responded immediately.
"I will set you free now. You can go back to Yicheng, or you can stay in the capital, as you like." Feng Zhanxiu said slowly.
All the girls raised their heads in panic, but they didn't understand, "Master doesn't want us anymore?"
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, and just said lightly, "Choose a good family and marry."
"Master..." The girls choked up.
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes swept across the girls, and they have been inseparable for such a long time. Although they are masters and servants, they have deep feelings.Seeing the red eyes of each of them, he deliberately ignored them, and said in a deep voice, "We are leaving, I hope to see you next time, you are all married."
"Don't stay here!" He shouted in a low voice, and rode away.
Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu rode their horses over the crowd, but Xia Er still followed.
The girls looked at the direction where the three left, very sad, but also a blessing.
After a long time, someone shouted angrily, "Why only Xia'er can follow!"
"It's so unfair!"
At dusk, Feng Zhanxiu and Mingzhu settled down in a small town not far from the capital.It's a small town, very simple.There are two wing rooms, one for the two of them, and one for Xia'er.Before eating, the two held hands and walked along the long bluestone slab by the lakeside of the town.
The lake water is very clear and green, with aquatic plants floating.
Occasionally, a small boat shuttles through it, and the boatman paddles across the lake, causing ripples.
The sky gradually darkened, it was already June.
Mingzhu turned around and watched him walk backwards.She looked at his handsome face, wanting to see him carefully and thoroughly, to see clearly.It seems that after today, their parting will be far away.She smiled and smiled again, and Feng Zhanxiu also smiled.She stopped, and he stopped too.
She stood in front of him and looked at him quietly, with the deep attachment hidden in her eyes.
"Feng Zhanxiu."
"kindness?"
"Xia'er said just now that the amount of silver is too little. I'm afraid it won't be enough. Have you brought it yet?"
"No."
"Then what should I do?" Mingzhu said with a smile, her eyes rolled sharply, "You look so good-looking, when the money is not enough, I will sell you."
Feng Zhan Xiujun's face sank, he stretched out his hand, put his arms around her waist and pulled her into his arms, "If you dare to sell me, let's see how I deal with you."
"I'm so scared." Mingzhu rested her head on his chest, wrapped her arms around him, and closed her eyes.
"Hungry." He suddenly spit out two words.
Mingzhu took his hand sharply and ran towards the inn, "Let's go! Let's eat!"
※※※
Wing of the inn
The two sat face to face, three dishes and one soup, very simple, each with a bowl of rice, it felt like an old married couple.
After dinner, Mingzhu made a cup of tea.Holding the teacup, she walked slowly to Feng Zhanxiu, and put the teacup down.Feng Zhanxiu picked up the teacup, and Mingzhu watched him drink the tea.The two sat quietly for a while, washed and combed, went to bed and lay down.In the dark wing, his powerful arms are pillows.
In the darkness, Mingzhu leaned against him and said softly, "Zhan Xiu, can you sing to me?"
"I can only sing one song," he said awkwardly.
"That's the one." Mingzhu was very resolute.
Feng Zhanxiu retracted her arms, and a deep male voice hovered above her head, "There are beauties, and you will never forget them. If you don't see them for a day, you will miss them like crazy. The phoenix is soaring, seeking phoenixes from all over the world, but the beauty is helpless." Xi, not on the east wall. Let the Qin replace the words, chat and write from the bottom of my heart, and wish that the words are worthy of virtue, and join hands with each other."
"When will I see Xu Xi, comfort me..."
"Don't fly, let me perish, make me perish..."
Mingzhu closed her eyes and murmured, "Why did you sing this song?"
"My mother and concubine used to sing this song every day. She said it was my father who sang it to her." Feng Zhanxiu said in a deep voice, suddenly feeling heavy eyelids, he also closed his eyes, his voice became more and more Light, so light that only the sound of breathing remains, "Mingzhu... I'm a little sleepy..."
Mingzhu patted him lightly, "Go to sleep."
The night was getting deeper, and Feng Zhanxiu was already asleep.
Mingzhu was awake, she let go of his arms around her and got out of bed.Half squatting on the edge of the bed, staring at his handsome sleeping face.It was dark and chaotic in front of his eyes, and his handsome face was very blurred.She reached out and stroked his facial features inch by inch, remembering him clearly for the last time.
"Goodbye." Mingzhu said softly, probably never seeing each other again...
It's completely over.
Mingzhu reluctantly withdrew her hand, took out the dagger, cut off a lock of her black hair, and put the letter she had prepared a long time ago beside his pillow.She just stood up and left resolutely.As soon as the door was opened, the door of the opposite wing room also opened at the same time.
Xia Er tidied up her clothes and walked to her side, "Master."
"Let's go." Mingzhu glanced back at him, closed the door and left.
There is a moon in the night sky, and the silver moonlight shines through the window.And Feng Zhanxiu who was on the collapsed bed suddenly opened his eyes, feeling a headache and feeling weak all over.He touched his side, there was no one there, and the temperature was freezing.Feng Zhanxiu woke up startled, looking for her figure.
But in the dark room, she had long since disappeared.
Feng Zhanxiu called out to the silent room, "Pearl?"
For a long time, no one responded.
"Pearl?" He called out again.
But still no one responded.
Feng Zhanxiu was a little anxious, he lifted the quilt and wanted to find her.But as soon as his feet touched the ground, he fell back to the bed and collapsed.Feng Zhanxiu clenched his fists again, surprised at his weakness in limbs, recalling everything, he couldn't believe it, and he was afraid and hesitant, his expression was suddenly hazy and dazed.
And out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of two things beside the pillow, and he grabbed them with trembling hands.
It was a lock of black hair.
There is another letter.
Feng Zhanxiu opened the letter and looked at the content written in the letter by the moonlight.Suddenly, he angrily threw the letter into the air, and his red eyes burst out with cold air, as if he wanted to kill the common people.He laughed softly again, and his laughter made people feel eerie in the silent night.
It turned out to be Heli, it turned out to be a letter from Heli.
Feng Zhanxiu squeezed his black hair tightly, and he was just talking to himself, "The black hair cuts off the love... the black hair cuts off the love... Ye Mingzhu...you are so cruel...you are so cruel...how can you Are you willing to let me go alone...how can you be willing...could it be because I won't give you a child..."
"Didn't you say that the ends of the earth will follow me?"
"Night Pearl..."
"You are not allowed to go... you are not allowed to go..."
He stuffed the lock of black hair into his chest, gritted his teeth and stood up.With black hair hanging over his shoulders, he looked crazy and frightened.And those eyes exuded faint blue flames, as if possessed by a demon.
In the deserted town, it seemed that he was the only one left in the world.
The shadow was stretched very long, as if laughing at someone.
The early summer wind blows by, but there is no warmth at all.
Surrounded by silence, Feng Zhanxiu walked out of the town like a ghost.He didn't know where to go, let alone where she went.Just a footprint, a footprint, looking for the trace of her departure.The bundle of black hair in his arms, pressed against his chest, made him feel a little chilly.
There was endless darkness in front of him, and he hurried forward for tens of miles.
It turned out to be a cliff.
One step forward is already a cliff.
Nearly ten black-clothed killers suddenly flew down from behind, the silver light of the blades was so cold that flashed through their eyes, but their eyes were full of cruel killing intent.
The killer dragged his knife and walked hurriedly, attacking him.
The moon shone down, and the blade rubbed against the ground to emit a dazzling red light.
Feng Zhanxiu ignored the killer who was attacking him, just stood there blankly, looking for the direction where she left.Those killers had already attacked him, and their blades were slashing at him.Those pitch-black eyes were empty, Feng Zhanxiu suddenly raised his head to look at the curved moon, raised and lowered the blade.
Fresh blood flowed out diligently, and the smell of blood spread in the air, gradually becoming dignified.
Feng Zhanxiu didn't seem to feel any pain, but slowly lowered his head.With a big black palm, the strength of the whole body rebounded, and the blade in his body was pulled out. The eagle eyes stared at the killer in front of him, and asked in a deep voice, "Who sent you here! Tell me! Who is it!"
Could it be you?Mingzhu, do you really want to kill me?
The killer didn't expect him to have such strength, but was ejected several feet away by his airway, spit out a mouthful of blood immediately, and passed out.
what happened?Didn't Zhan Wang hit Hua Gong San?
"Kill!" Someone shouted, and the crowd besieged him again.
Feng Zhanxiu's limbs were weak, and his head was very dizzy.
My eyes were blurry, and I couldn't even see who was who.His palm was cold, like a dying beast.But the beast is still ferocious even at the last moment.With a stretch of his long arm, he directly twisted the two hands of the man, and kicked the other man away with his legs.
"Say it!" Feng Zhanxiu yelled sharply and grabbed a killer by the neck.
The killer touched the ground with his toes, unable to breathe in pain, "Yes..."
Feng Zhanxiu's heart tightened, and the strength in his hands increased at the same time.Before the killer could finish speaking, he rolled his eyes, stopped struggling, and fell from his hand.His hand loosened slightly, and the last bit of strength was exhausted, and even his fingers seemed to be stiff.The legs stepped on the ground, as if they were stepping on cotton.
Feeling dizzy for a while, Feng Zhanxiu was so weak that he couldn't continue to support himself, and fell down in panic.
But he didn't let himself fall down completely, he just knelt on one knee, trying to be brave.
"She sent you to kill me." Feng Zhanxiu's quiet voice hovered, a little hoarse.
The killers squinted their eyes, looked at each other, moved their wrists, and stabbed at him again.
The blade pierced through his body in an instant, and someone's murmur was like a nightmare, constantly echoing in his ears.
The two faces alternated constantly and flashed in my mind.
"Don't come here! Ah! The thing I regret the most is that I gave birth to you! I never gave birth to you!"
"Kill you! Just kill you!"
"Why can't you die, why can't you die, monster, you monster!"
The woman's face was covered with blood, and it suddenly turned into anger and grief, and she became another person.
"You chose this woman...Auntie will fulfill you...perfect you...but I...will not forgive you...your father and king will not forgive you...if Auntie goes to hell...does a ghost... I want to watch you too..."
"Look at this woman...she will definitely betray you..."
With two pairs of eyes fixed on him, Feng Zhanxiu hugged his head in pain and roared, "Ah—"
Ye Mingzhu, why even you have to leave me.Why even you have to choose to leave me.
No one, no one will always be by his side.
Not a single one.
"Mingzhu..." Feng Zhanxiu snorted, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, he murmured, "Ye Mingzhu..."
The killers pulled out their blades with all their strength, and the flying blood splashed in all directions.
Feng Zhanxiu lowered his head, his black hair was loose, covering his handsome face.Finally, he no longer had the strength to fight back, raised the corners of his lips, held his last breath, roared, and flew towards the cliff.Something fell out of the clothes, but the light was covered by blood.
The killers ran to the edge of the cliff, looked down, and in the blink of an eye, he fell into the abyss.
And that roar is mixed with shrill, angry, hesitant, sad... people still feel palpitations.
"what should I do now?"
"The King of War was seriously injured, and the cliff is so deep, it's impossible for him not to die!" The killer in the lead shouted coldly, "Let's go back immediately! The King of War is dead!"
The hooves of the horse flew up, breathing out turbid air.drowned in the night.
But in the desolate bushes in the outskirts, there are a few raised hills.

Miyakonojo
The palace was heavily guarded, and after another hour, the eunuchs took over alternately.
It was not yet dawn, and in the darkness of the night, there was only one person of medium build, slightly fatter, but his steps were very steady.Wearing an indigo palace uniform, he hurried towards the eunuchs.Looking around again, he seemed to be cautious, and then asked in a deep voice, "How is the matter going!"
"Return to the father-in-law! Everything is going well!" Someone stepped forward and said in a low voice.
"Where's the corpse?"
"Buried!"
The person in the indigo palace uniform was silent, and it took a long time before he said, "Okay!"
He turned around and walked back to the hall, the dark clouds dispersed, the moonlight shone on his face, and a pair of sharp eyes were faintly visible.The indigo palace clothes symbolized his status in the palace.
And this person is none other than Eunuch De!
Eunuch De lowered his head and ran into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, where Xiao Xuanyi was sleeping soundly in the sleeping hall.The little man was very handsome, and he could be vaguely seen, somewhat similar to the man in his memory.
"Princess Qin, you can finally rest in peace!"
