Chapter 493: Ancient Road Skinny Horse

"You talk nonsense!!"

Ling Wan struggled to escape from the guards, knelt beside Qinglang, and hugged him tightly in her arms.

"He just wanted to save Ling Xi, he didn't think about killing you at all, with his martial arts, if he wanted to kill you, you would still be alive until now!??"

"Come on, send Princess Linghuan back to Wanpingju, be sure to protect her safety......"

Ling Yu turned his head and left directly after saying to the guards beside him, ignoring Ling Huan, who was kneeling beside Qing Lang and crying hoarsely.

There was a ghost crying wolf howl behind him, and Ling Wan was tied up and stuffed into the carriage by several internal guards, and the cry gradually faded away, leaving Qing Lang alone with countless corpses as a companion.

The corpses occupied a place, and several eagle vultures appeared in the gray sky, probably attracted by carrion, and hovered for a long time and refused to leave.

Qing Lang was lying in the middle, holding the black gold sword in his hand, his face was calm, and he had completely lost his usual indifferent look. The corpses of those soldiers, centered on him, radiated outward in circles. Standing on the city wall and looking down, it is like some kind of ancient and mysterious ceremony, paying tribute to the lonely boy who died prematurely.

*

Lying on horseback, I don't know how long I walked, and when the scenery on both sides of the road turned into verdant mountain walls, Zou Youheng finally felt that his body had some strength.

This is probably the pill that Qing Lang stuffed into his mouth before leaving.

Zou Youheng grabbed the saddle hard, staggered on the horse's back, turned over, and sat up.

Surrounded by unfamiliar landscapes. There is an unknown road ahead.

And he only has a skinny horse.

After experiencing life and death, it is more painful to survive than to die.

Zhou Ming's regretful appearance before his death kept flashing in front of him, and the picture of Qing Lang risking his life to block those big internal guards for him kept emerging, the former was no longer alive, and the latter was ......

Zou Youheng remembered the scene at that time, so many archers and strong internal guards, sunny and ...... He looked up at the rising sun in the east, and his mind was in a mess, and he didn't dare to think further about the current situation of the sunny day.

Coup d'Γ©tat between Korea and China. Although Rongzhou City is thousands of miles away. It must have been affected as well. Worried about the situation at home, but he didn't want to go back.

Zou Yu and Wu, Zhou Ming's father, Lin Zucheng. Mr. in Smoky Hills Academy. The families of the students who came with him to take the exam......

Hundreds of people traveled together. But he was left to return alone, like this, where to start when he went back?

Speechless.

Shameless.

*

"How?"

In the Qiankun Palace. Ling Yu asked.

"Back to Your Highness, I'll put the horse ...... Sunny searched all over his body, but there was nothing but wounds all over the place. ”

The chief guard replied in a low voice.

"Nothing?"

Ling Yujian's brows furrowed slightly.

"Have you searched carefully?"

"Back to His Highness, the horse died unexpectedly and needs to be buried, and we have replaced his original clothes with new ones. This was the garment he had been wearing, and there was nothing on it. ”

The chief guard said, gesturing to the sunny bloody clothes that lay aside.

The coat, which was originally black, was soaked in blood, showing a black and red hue. There are many holes scattered on it, large and small, and it is almost impossible to see its original form.

Ling Yu walked down the steps, looked at the neatly stacked bloody clothes, and wanted to reach for them.

"Your Highness, this dress is full of blood, if you want to see what is going on, your subordinates can turn it over to show you......"

Seeing that Ling Yu was about to reach out for the bloody clothes, the head of the guard hurriedly stopped him.

"No need. Presumably, there is nothing hidden in this bloody coat, so you can just destroy it later. Also, although Qinglang has not officially married Princess Lingwan, the funeral still has to be carried out in accordance with the ceremony of the state funeral. ”

Ling Yu turned around and said lightly.

Although the ways are different and do not conspire with each other, since it is the old man's resignation, the final farewell is still needed.

*

Zou Youheng rode on horseback, spinning around the empty official road, not knowing which direction to go. He had nowhere to go except Rongzhou, but he resisted going back from the bottom of his heart.

In a daze, he suddenly remembered Qianyi, who had come to Yuejing with them. The five-day examination was over, but none of the students came back, and Zou Youheng didn't dare to imagine what would happen to Qianyi, who was a gentleman, if he didn't see the returning students.

Zou Youheng decided to return to Yuejing to find him, since things have been so bad that they can't be worse, it is better to have someone to share than to carry it alone.

But when he rushed back to the courtyard on the outskirts of Yuejing overnight hungry, the building was empty, and it was empty, not only was there no one, but even the furniture that had been stored had disappeared without a trace. The courtyard where I used to live has completely become an empty building.

Tired and hungry, he still has the injuries he had suffered before, although he is protected by the pill that Sunny Plug gave him, but his body is overdrawn, and he has encountered the ups and downs of love, and he no longer has the strength to look for Qianyi elsewhere.

"A dangerous place is safe", he simply settled down in this house now, tied the horse in the compound, took some weeds and fed it, watching it chew with relish, Zou Youheng's stomach became more and more hungry. The luggage and entanglement that had been placed in this yard before were gone, and now he was truly alone, not to mention the money, and he didn't even have anything to take to the pawnshop to pawn. And the clothes on his body were all stolen from the farm halfway through.

Rongzhou City is thousands of miles away, and with his current situation, even if he wants to go back, it is almost impossible without entanglement. Thinking of the things he was still struggling with whether to go back before, Zou Youheng felt funny, he couldn't go back at all, and he was still entangled with a fart.

"Thanks to Mr. 's help this time, things can go so smoothly."

In the imperial study, Ling Yu said to Qian Yi with a smile.

Tomorrow is the day he ascends the throne, I thought I would be excited and speechless, but I didn't expect my heart to be unusually calm, as if I was doing something that had nothing to do with me.

"Your Highness, don't say that, all of these qiΔ“ were won by you, Your Highness, and it has nothing to do with Weichen."

Qian Yi stood there in a dark blue coarse cloth gown, his face unwavering.

"Sir is too humble, I can't get here without the credit of Mr."

Ling Yu's eyes were full of sincerity.

But after experiencing a lot of deception in the palace, you will understand that sometimes the things that come out of the eyes are not too reliable.

"Your Highness will enthrone tomorrow, rest early."

Qianyi didn't want to continue the topic just now.

"The enthronement is just a ceremony, I hope that in the future, my husband can also accompany me, the world is dangerous, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it on my own......"

Ling Yu's every sentence is full of sincerity.

"Although the world is dangerous, in addition to me, there are many loyal courtiers who will accompany His Highness, as long as Your Highness is at ease with the government and benefits the people of the world."

Qian Yi said lightly.

He already has a plan to leave, this time Ling Yu has relied on a lot of strength in order to have a greater chance of winning, which is good and bad, and after ascending the throne, there will definitely be several different forces in the court again, how to weigh it up at that time, it all depends on Ling Yu's choice, but he doesn't want to mix it anymore.

"If I'm not mistaken, my husband's grandmother still lives alone in the ancestral house in Quanxiu Village? ……”

Ling Yu sat down in the chair, flipped through the folds in his hand, and asked casually.

"Your Highness, you don't have to ......"

Qianyi sighed.

He knew what Ling Yu meant, once he resigned and went home, all his family members would be unexpected.

"Sir, from the farewell of Lujiazhuang back then, to the reunion four years ago, no matter what I do, you helped me unconditionally, and now I have finally survived, at this time of hardship, the people who have been by my side to help me, how can I leave like this? ……”

When it came to Lujiazhuang, Ling Yu seemed to fall into a memory.

"Your Highness, Weichen is really not suitable to be an official in the court."

Qianyi's face was embarrassed.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and it is wise to retire after success.

"I'm still me, as long as my husband is by my side, as for the affairs of the court, you don't have to worry too much."

Ling Yu said seriously.

The new emperor ascends the throne, and all sides of the sea need to be reorganized, how can a talent like Qianyi let him go.

"Your Highness, I ......"

Qian Yi didn't know what to do to make Ling Yu die.

He knew that Ling Yu would be a good king, but that didn't hide what he had done for this position, and every time he dreamed back at midnight, he couldn't sleep peacefully at the thought of the thousands of scholars who had died in that cave.

"One will make ten thousand bones dry. Since the matter has come to this, we cannot waste everyone's sacrifice and dedication, and those who survive can only live harder and work harder to benefit the common people in the world, so as not to waste those who have given their lives. ”

Ling Yu looked up at Qianyi, his eyes shining.

"Benefiting the people of the world is not something that can be achieved by words, it is a long and lonely road, but I don't want to go it alone, I hope that my husband can be with me. This can be regarded as making amends for those who died because of me. ”

"Your Highness......"

Qianyi sighed.

That's it.

Without his help and advice, Ling Yu would not have been able to get to this point, thinking about it this way, he was actually the biggest mastermind.

Since he is the mastermind, what reason is there to leave early, he is useless at all, why should he retreat?

"Weichen congratulates His Highness."

Qian Yi knelt down respectfully towards Ling Yu.

For better or worse, he had already decided to stay.

"Sir, please get up."

Ling Yu walked over briskly to help.

"In the future, I will work hand in hand with my husband, the stars will fall, the heaven and the earth will be the plate, and the husband will accompany me, which is not only my blessing, but also the blessing of the people of the great cause and the people of the world."

Between the supports, Qian Yi raised his head, just in front of Ling Yu's eyes full of sincerity.

His decision this time is really ...... Is it right? (To be continued......)
