Chapter 34 The end of love

If life needs a kind of sublimation, then, as far as Luo Xiaotian is concerned, it is a dream that many people have diligently pursued. Even he didn't know if it was lucky, or if it was a danger hidden in the depths.

He knew in his heart that he was just a pawn in the emperor's trade-offs. The emperor summoned and rewarded himself in front of hundreds of officials, and only added some imperial prestige to this chess piece. Other than that, he couldn't think of anything else—the reason why the emperor thought highly of himself.

With his character, he doesn't want to be a pawn, and it's a risky move. However, in order to save Chen An'an, he still took risks.

Even, ashamed of their beloved.

At the gate of the Bei'an Palace, Zhao Susu was looking forward to it.

For several days, she has been pestering her father, asking him to come forward to help Luo Xiaotian. King Bei'an couldn't stand her repeated entanglements, so he could only reluctantly agree to go to the scene of the trial to have a look. Fortunately, he arrived in time to stop the cane punishment that might kill Chen An'an.

The carriage of the King of Bei'an came slowly, and she smiled brightly, and immediately trotted to meet it.

"Daddy, daddy......" Before King Bei'an got out of the car, Zhao Susu shouted in front of the carriage that had just stopped.

When his father came back at this time, Zhao Susu was naturally happy. There must be good news, otherwise, he would not have gone back to the palace, but would have gone into the palace to find the emperor.

King Bei'an stepped out of the carriage, looked at his daughter full of excitement with a solemn expression, and walked straight to the mansion without saying a word.

"Daddy came back so early, but something good?" Zhao Susu chased after him, asking with expectant eyes.

King Bei'an nodded and said "um" softly.

"Has Xiaotian returned home?" She continued.

King Bei'an still nodded lightly.

"In this way, Miss An An is fine." She smiled and said to herself, and then said to her father, "Daddy, I'll go find Xiaotian, you go back to the house to rest first." ”

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop!" King Bei'an suddenly stopped.

Zhao Susu stopped and looked back at his father suspiciously.

"You sent him the decree back, hey...... You can take a good look at it. King Bei'an said.

He knew that the female university was not in the middle, not to mention, Su Su was already deeply trapped in it and could not extricate himself. As for how young people face it and deal with it, they can only go with the flow and let them go.

She took the decree from her father's hand and spread it out halfway, scrutinizing its contents. For a moment, her eyes twinkled, and the corners of her mouth curled into a smile, and she was about to shout out loud.

I couldn't hide my joy in my heart, as if I had poured honey - the emperor had given me a marriage!

Seeing that his father had not gone far, he excitedly shouted to him, "Thank you, Daddy!" ”

……

In the adult world, there are many cruel things, but two people who are in love with each other can't escape the world. For Zhao Susu, who doesn't know the truth yet, it is nothing more than a sharp blade.

Chen An'an, who is still on the verge of life and death, doesn't know that he has become Luo Xiaotian's quasi-fiancée at this moment.

Luo Xiaotian took Chen An'an and returned to the Hou Mansion.

Yao Qingshu was not there, and Luo Xiaotian was also a little in a hurry. Although he followed the master and his brother, he was familiar with medical skills, but he had not yet practiced them.

However, after his busy and dying Chen An'an, the breath in his body gradually stabilized. She was exhausted, but she was not awake yet.

Zhang Ruyue was on the side, wiping the beads of sweat oozing from her senior brother's forehead.

Luo Xiaotian, who was soaking wet, turned around and said to the little junior sister, "Senior sister, please change the clothes on her body." It's all blood, stained with blood scabs, I'm afraid I can't take it off......"

The little junior sister glanced at the weak Chen An'an and nodded: "Leave it to me!" ”

After explaining, Luo Xiaotian closed the door and left.

He hadn't taken a few steps, and around the corner, a figure that had come running in a hurry crashed into his arms.

The two looked at each other, and the person in front of them turned out to be Zhao Susu.

She was so shocked that her cheeks turned crimson, and when she looked up and saw that it was Luo Xiaotian, she smiled proudly.

"I heard that Miss An An is back." She asked with a smile.

"Hmm......" Luo Xiaotian nodded, his face turned to the side, his gaze dodging.

Her eyes were pure, worried about her lover's friend, and she asked with concern, "How is she now?" ”

"There is no danger to my life, but I am still in a coma...... Luo Xiaotian looked at her with a guilty face: "Susu, you come with me." ”

She smiled and nodded, hummed softly, took Luo Xiaotian's hand, and followed him.

The two walked to a secluded gazebo.

Luo Xiaotian looked at Zhao Susu quietly and was silent for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Susu saw that he was silent and couldn't help asking.

With sadness in his eyes, he turned sideways and whispered, "Susu, I said that I will live up to you in this life." ”

"I believe that from before to ...... future"

While speaking, Zhao Susu took out the holy decree in his hand and looked up at Luo Xiaotian - his eyes were deep, like a starry sky, and people couldn't help but fall into it.

At this moment, Luo Xiaotian dodged in panic and snatched the holy decree. hugged her tightly into her arms, as if as soon as she let go, she was lost.

Her stretched eyebrows gradually tightened, and she asked solemnly, "Xiaotian, what's wrong?" I feel bad, tell me ......"

After a moment of silence, he mustered up his courage and said: "In order to save An An, the object of the emperor's marriage ......"

Didn't wait for him to finish. Zhao Susu was like a frightened deer, and immediately broke free from his arms. She had already guessed that the starlight in her eyes was gone, and she became confused, and turned her back in disappointment.

"I'll go back to Lingyang City tomorrow, you can take good care of her......" Zhao Susu's expression was blank, pretending to be calm, but her voice couldn't hide the trembling: "From now on, you don't have to come to me." ”

Without waiting for his answer, he ran all the way out of the gate of the Hou Mansion.

She felt that this should be the last word of the two.

Luo Xiaotian wanted to stop her and make it clear to her: for her, you can leave everything behind and accompany her to the world.

However, he did nothing. The guilt in his heart - like a chain, bound him in place, unable to take a step.

He is now a soulless shell, and only memories of Zhao Susu are left in his mind.

……

Kyoto Castle Prince's House.

In the deep corridors of the courtyard, the chirping of birds can be heard.

Following the prestige, I saw the prince standing in front of a row of birdcages, teasing a few thrushes. The whistles of people and the chirping of birds echo each other, but they are very pleasant.

The prince's facial features are distinct, like an engraved statue, his figure is heroic and straight, and he exudes the air of a majestic king. However, it seems that some of the images of civil and martial arts are missing.

At this time, in the path of the courtyard, a young man walked in a hurry.

When he got behind the prince, he put on a bitter gourd face and said, "Prince, you really have Yaxing, my father is still in the dungeon!" ”

The prince ignored his words, whistled to amuse the birds, and continued to play with the birds.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the young man pretended to cry: "Your Highness, please save my father." ”

The prince first sprinkled the remaining handful of bird food in his hand in the cage, and then clapped his hands to clean up the remaining bird food fragments between his fingers. After that, he slowly turned around, with a slight smile on his face, leaned close to his face and said to him: "Pingrui, I am thinking of a way to do this, and I won't leave Lin Pingshi behind." ”

This young man named Pingrui only relieved his mood a little when he heard the prince's words, and complained bitterly: "Your Highness, my father has done his best for the court and worked hard for the prince, and I don't know where to offend that kid...... The minister is upset for his father! ”

"Huh...... Your father and I are both for the emperor and the court. He was also arrogant for a few days, and the East Gate bombing case was not so simple. After a while, I should have made it clear to the emperor that this guillotine was already hanging over this kid's head. The prince said confidently.

"If so, that's for the best. As far as I know, this person has no power in Kyoto, and even in Nanyu, but he is a little young and vigorous, and there is no one in his eyes. Give him some bitterness to taste, and extinguish his ambition. At this time, Pingrui was resentful in his heart and gritted his teeth.

The prince's heart is actually very clear. The emperor would summon him in the early dynasty, naturally for a purpose, but the holy will was difficult to fathom. But what he can be sure of is that the emperor just got up on a whim, and after a while, he won't take that kid to heart.

"Don't be in a hurry, wait for the emperor to be interested, and then Lin Pingshi will be wronged for a few days." The prince comforted Pingrui and said.

"My father is in poor health, how can he bear the pain of prison...... A few days ago, I went to visit him, and I saw that his old man looked poor and coughed......"

"I can only wronged him, I will ask someone to settle his living meals, Pingrui doesn't have to worry."

"Thank you, Your Highness, I hope to rehabilitate my father as soon as possible and get out of prison, and here, I would like to thank you on behalf of my father."

"Pingrui doesn't have to be polite. However, having said that, Lin Ping was too anxious during the trial, and this assassin case went through the motions, and even the emperor didn't take it to heart. ”

The prince's expression was subtle at the moment, and he seemed to be not very satisfied with Lin Ping's handling of the assassin case.

Lin Pingrui saw that his expression was strange, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, my father is dedicated to you in the court, he works hard, the sun and the moon can be seen, and he will never do anything to be sorry for His Highness." ”

The prince laughed: "Haha...... Pingrui, you misunderstood, Lin Pingshi is loyal to the palace, I am very happy, he just judged the situation. The people of the king saw clearly and acted cautiously. ”

"I'm afraid that there is a ghost in his heart. In the past few days, he has also been slow to act on the East Gate bombing, and the eyeliner in the house has not been dispatched, so His Royal Highness is still cautious. ”

"As a brother, Bengong also lets him everywhere. If he knew how to be grateful, he wouldn't be embarrassed by me when he was in court. ”

"Your Highness, it seems that King Ye helped that kid speak that day and seconded the emperor's suggestion, and he also had ulterior motives, and I am afraid that this bombing case has nothing to do with him."

"Pingrui, the people under you won't attract attention. In the past few days, you have helped me keep an eye on Luo Xiaotian. I speculate that King Ye wants to avoid Dali Temple, and wants to use that kid's hand to murder the palace......"

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, my father has already arranged this matter. Since the assassin's case, people have been keeping an eye on his mansion. ”

The prince smiled with satisfaction: "Good! Sure enough, father and son are of the same heart, take precautions! These, even Hongu never thought of. ”

Lin Pingrui frowned suddenly, pretending to be mysterious, and said softly: "Prince, there is another matter, the minister doesn't know whether to say it......

"What's the matter? Fragmented, the palace is panicked. The prince said with a displeased face.

"On that day, the king of Bei'an also arrived. Moreover, Luo Xiaotian has close contacts with him and often goes in and out of his house. ”

"Bold Lin Pingrui, even you snoop on your uncle's palace!" The prince glared at him angrily.

Lin Pingrui hurriedly explained: "Your Highness is angry, the minister is thinking about you...... King Bei'an and this Luo Xiaotian are both from Lingyang, and they entered Beijing at the same time, doesn't His Royal Highness feel a little strange? ”

The prince pondered for a moment, then thought and said, "Uncle has always ignored the affairs of the court, but this time he cares about a death row prisoner......

He looked at the thrushes in the cage, fighting fiercely for food.

The prince frowned slightly, secretly frightened.
