(277) Red Maple Goes Cold (28)
I said it with difficulty word by word, but Cen Yuhe cried when I heard it.
"Why should I do this for you? You've done this to me......"
My eyes darkened, and I laughed self-deprecatingly.
Yes, why did I forget, from now on, I don't even have the qualifications to come to see her, so why should I let her help me?
I gritted my teeth to endure the pain and stood up on my feet.
"You ......"
"Princess, after a farewell tonight, perhaps...... We'll never see each other again," I tried to make my facial expression gentle, but the pain of the wound always distorted my expression, "Anyway, I...... I'm very grateful that you were able to accompany me in the red maple forest that year...... Look at the clouds......"
My voice gradually weakened, and I tried my best to stay awake, but the loss of physical strength caused by excessive blood loss made me unable to stop the drowsiness of consciousness.
"No, don't, Shen Qingzhi, wake up, don't die, don't leave me......" In the chaos, it seems that someone is holding me and crying hoarsely, such a sad pain, just like the fire cloud in the red maple forest, obviously so close, but I can't touch anything.
Don't cry anymore, Yuhe, the last thing I want in my life is to see you cry, for me.
I don't know how long I've passed out, but by the time my consciousness has returned to the prison a little, I'm already back in the prison.
The dagger on the wound has not yet been pulled, but the blood has temporarily stopped, and the bloody gas on my body has spread out, and I have even been stuffed with a small sachet in my hand, the fragrance of the sachet is not very strong, just enough to cover the smell of blood all over my body.
"Your Excellency is so late, are you here ......"
Outside the prison, the jailer's deliberately amplified voice suddenly sounded, and I was startled, so I quickly got up, put the thin blanket on the haystack over my body, and sat down with my back to the cell door.
"Lord Shen Xiang and this official are colleagues, and this official used to be her master, and she will ...... tomorrow Please, little brother, be accommodating, and let you see her for the last time. ”
"Oh, what's so embarrassing?"
"Yes, little brother take it and get some wine to drink."
"That'...... The little one took it with a cheeky face. My lord, please come here, Shen Xiang is inside. ”
As he spoke, the jailer led Lu Xuan in.
"I'm tired of the little brother going out for a while, and it is inevitable that there will be some private things to say between our colleagues, teachers and students." Lu Xuan stuffed another ingot of silver to the jailer.
The jailer's eyes lit up, and he immediately responded and left.
Lu Xuan saw that there was no one around, so he took a few steps closer to the cell.
"Shen Xiang?"
I closed my eyes and didn't speak.
"Shen Qingzhi," Lu Xuan sneered when he saw that I was silent and polite, and took two steps forward with his negative hand, "The old man knows that you are not asleep at all." ”
I moved.
Lu Xuan saw such a small action at once, he paused, squinted and laughed, "You are taught by the old man, the most admirable minister in the world, and the best courtier in a country, if you can, the old man really doesn't want tomorrow to be your limit." ”
I chuckled and said, "Master is here to talk to the students today, it can't be just to praise the students, right?" ”
Lu Xuan shook his head and smiled.
"You know what the old man means, why pretend not to know?"
I didn't make a sound.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan could only sigh at my stubbornness.
"You are the old man's student, why don't you want to have the same heart with the old man?" Lu Xuan was a little helpless.
"Isn't it strange that the Master said this?" I mocked, "In the past, when I was in the White Crane Academy, once you scolded me, saying that I was the son of a man, unfilial and disrespectful, a disciple, disrespectful, and a minister in the future, I must also be a disloyal and unrighteous person. Has the Master also become the unfilial, disrespectful, disrespectful, disloyal and unrighteous person in your mouth? ”
"You!" Lu Xuan was angry for a moment, but then he calmed down again and sighed slowly, "It is always difficult for people to maintain their original thoughts, and when they are young and vigorous, they will inevitably regard themselves as the savior of this world, but unfortunately, this world has never needed a savior." ”
I pursed my lips and said nothing.
"Besides, what the White Crane Academy teaches has never been foolish loyalty to a king, and Du Rong is much smarter than you in this regard."
Du Rong?
I felt a shock in my heart. Everyone
"Don't worry," Lu Xuan seemed to anticipate my thoughts, he smiled and said, "He is a person who understands current affairs, and he will definitely live longer than you in the future." ”
"......" I opened my eyes slightly, and looked at the stone wall in front of me lightly, "Lu Fuzi, what I, Shen Qingzhi, is pursuing, has never been a long life, and tomorrow's prison beheading, you can just be ruthless." ”
Lu Xuan was choked by me, but he wasn't angry, or rather, his temper was surprisingly good tonight.
Maybe it's because he's going to see my soul return to the Nine Heavens tomorrow, but he's really a little reluctant.
"You've really decided? Would you rather be loyal to the old emperor who was dying than turn around to someone else's command? ”
I don't speak.
Lu Xuan frowned, and just wanted to say something more, when suddenly, a vague smell of blood rushed from the dark depths to the tip of his nose, Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly became suspicious.
"Shen Qingzhi, I used to be your master, don't you even want to turn around and look at me and say goodbye?" Lu Xuan's voice was not as relaxed as just now, and even had the intention of forcing me, but I was indifferent.
Lu Xuan's doubts were even more serious, he wanted to get closer and see clearly, but the prison door was locked, and he didn't have the ability to let the jailer open the lock at will, so he could only further test me in a cold voice, "I heard that Cai Yu and He Qiong are here?" In the middle of the night, what are they going to do? ”
"Didn't the Master come at this time?" I sneered.
Lu Xuan's eyes suddenly froze, and he was about to be ruthless and do something more, but I suddenly got up and turned my head to look at him.
In the dark corner of the prison, my face was not clear, but the cold light in my eyes was extremely clear.
I looked at him, and my eyes were full of contempt, "How can a person who can't even stick to his original intention achieve great things?" Lu Fuzi, I, Shen Qingzhi, have always been conceited, do you think I will be stupid and loyal to anyone? Instead of you wasting time here with me, a dying man, why don't you go and see how many dangers are already buried behind you, does Taifu Pei really believe in you with all his heart? Is the emperor really critically ill? How many people are there in this court, and how much grass is on the wall among them? How many people have ill intentions? ”
Lu Xuan's face was already pale when my words fell, he snorted coldly, and left angrily.
"Ahem......" I frowned, coughed lightly, covered my chest with one hand, and held the wall with the other, and collapsed to the ground with a pale face.
Fang Cai fought with him, and broke the boat, with the dim light of the prison, stood up and turned his head to look at him, I was already enduring the pain in my body and the crazy loss of physical strength, and now, I am really at the end of the crossbow.
"Qingzhi? Green Branches! "As soon as Cai Yu and He Qiong came in, they saw me lying on the ground in pain, threw themselves on the iron railing with an exclamation, and anxiously called my name.
"You," Cai Yuyi was excited, grabbed the jailer's shirt viciously, and roared angrily, "Quickly open the door for me, or I will make your death ugly!" ”
In the face of such Cai Yu, the jailer was naturally frightened, he knelt on the ground with a "poof", and kowtowed to Cai Yu desperately, "My lord, you just let go of the small one, I really can't open this small door, the top has already explained, whoever opens this door will die, the small one is old and young, it's really ......"
"Upper?" He Qiong glared at the jailer with a very bad face: "Which one is on top?" Could it be that the emperor can't do it? ”
"No, no...... "The jailer wants to cry without tears" It's Lord Pei, it's Lord Pei! ”
"You!" Cai Yu was so angry that he was about to hit someone when he went up, but when He Qiong saw that the situation was not good, he quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed him.
"Don't be impulsive."
"But ......"
"This princess is here, don't open the door quickly!" A shout suddenly came from around the corner, and the sixth princess in a snow-white palace dress appeared in front of everyone.
She was supported by a small eunuch, her head slightly raised, and her eyes were cold as she walked down the stone steps step by step.
When the jailer saw that the princess had arrived, and there were two fierce adults next to him, he had long wanted to open the prison door and let them in, but Taifu Pei's power was ......
"What Princess Ben said, do you dare to disrespect?" Cen Yuhe looked at the jailer coldly, and a long sword flashed out of his skirt with one hand, pointing straight at the jailer's head.
The jailer was so shocked that he crawled to open the cell door.
"You all go out to this princess." Cen Yuhe ordered.
The jailer didn't say a word, and immediately rushed out, but He Qiong and Cai Yu were not at ease and insisted on staying.
"This princess is not discussing with you, but ordering you, if you dare to resist the order, this princess will kill you now to set an example!" Cen Yuhe drank coldly.
He Qiong and the others were surprised by Cen Yuhe's sudden strength, but now that the situation was urgent, they couldn't allow them to argue more, so they could only retreat quickly.
"Imperial Doctor, hurry up and go in and have a look." Seeing that the people in the prison had already left, Cen Yuhe could no longer hold back his expression, and almost cried and begged the imperial doctor.
The Imperial Doctor was moved and hurried to check on my injuries.
After the diagnosis, the chief physician breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's okay, it didn't pierce the heart, and the knife is not deep, as long as you pull out the knife and stop the bleeding in time." ”
"Really?" Cen Yuhe's face showed a slightly surprised expression, but the next second she darkened her eyes again, "Then you hurry up, I'll ...... first"
"Yuhe, don't go." I suddenly reached out and grabbed her sleeve hard, my face was covered with sweat, and even my vision was blurry and I couldn't see clearly, but I just wouldn't let go, "There is only one you left by my side, I beg you, don't go ......"
Cen Yuhe suddenly burst into tears.
