Chapter 141: The eldest brother is immortal
There was a cry in the temple, and Ye Qinmei sat on the high platform, looking coldly at the floating light.
Ye Sheng lowered his head, and the hand holding the wine glass couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The two eunuchs went out, as if to give him the last dignity of the dying man.
Do people who knew months ago that they were about to die be terrified?
Ye Sheng couldn't help but feel funny, he covered his face with his sleeve, and slowly poured the sweet brew in the cup into his mouth.
Sure enough, it is a fine wine given by the emperor, and this cup is not bitter when it enters the throat, but it is very delicious.
Raise a glass and drink, but it was only a matter of a moment, and when Ye Sheng put down the wine glass, the glass was empty.
When I first drank it, I didn't feel anything. Ye Sheng's brain was still flexible enough for him to recall those who had appeared in his life.
He leaned against the wall and remembered the more than 10,000 people who died in Xitang, as well as Li Yingcheng, who was pierced through his throat by his arrow.
It is said that the Son of Heaven is not virtuous, but today the Son is indeed virtuous, but so what?
Just like the Ye family is in the capital, born in Ningguo, who are they loyal to, can they still have their own choice?
Ye Sheng remembered the heads he personally cut off when he was quelling the bandits, maybe there were indeed people among them who could not be oppressed and regarded rebellion as the only way to live.
So what he did when he killed the enemy with his sword was good or evil?
He was surrounded by faithful men and betrayed him.
Why be faithful?
Why the betrayal? Ye Sheng occasionally thought of this question.
Perhaps, just like the moment when the knife fell in his hand, the reason for this will always be a mystery that he can't solve.
The stamina of the wine he drank gradually came up, and the things in front of Ye Sheng's eyes began to blur.
He felt that he could no longer stand against the wall, so he sat down slowly, leaning against the cold stone slab.
Black blood poured out of his mouth, and his head slowly tilted back, his thoughts wandering.
Speaking of which, I have been here for a long time, and I know that Mrs. Zhao is in Ye Mansion, and she is still safe and sound. also got the news that Lan'er was taken away by Mei'er from the gossip of the guards at the door, and he can relax for the time being.
That...... What about Ye Qinzhu......
What about Ye Qinzhu, who had climbed over the wall and appeared in front of him when he was very young?
Ye Sheng never told Ye Qinzhu that when Ye Qinzhu was not sober, she had already entered Ye Sheng's life.
As a female doll who climbed the wall at noon in the summer, she fell into the pool in his yard.
At that time, Ye Qinzhu was white and tender, as soft as glutinous rice dumplings.
If he could, Ye Sheng wanted to see a bamboo again, but it was clear that this wish could not be fulfilled.
At the last moment when his consciousness dissipated, Ye Sheng seemed to have returned to the time when he had just had a memory.
His majestic and gentle mother held him in her arms, smiled rarely, and sang a lullaby softly like an ordinary woman.
The door of the house was opened again, and the sunlight shone into the house again, but Ye Sheng who was leaning against the corner was not found.
Someone picked him up like a baby and held him in his arms, and his face was slightly warm, soft as if it was about to come spring rain.
Someone was calling him, but not his name.
"Big Brother ......"
"My Big Brother ......"
The best big brother in the whole world......
Ye Qinzhu's face slowly moved away from Ye Sheng's face, wiping the water stains on the corners of Ye Sheng's mouth.
The door behind her opened, and two eunuchs stepped out from behind her, testing Ye Sheng's snort and pulse.
Ye Qinzhu watched silently as they completed all this.
"According to His Majesty's will, Grand Prince Ye should be thrown into a mass grave and not buried. The voice of one of the eunuchs was as thin as a gnat, he approached Ye Qinzhu and said to himself, "But if the third lady is willing, we can hide this matter for you and let you bury the eldest prince alive." ”
Ye Qinzhu couldn't laugh, she lowered her head and replied softly:
"My clothes are not here, if my father-in-law wants to be paid, the bamboo can only be put aside a few times. ”
The eunuch couldn't help but show a little compassion, and he whispered: "No need. ”
The other person pulled him and dragged him out of the Ye Mansion.
The spirit masters outside the mansion had no intention of withdrawing, and they stood outside the door, waiting for their master's next order.
The strange thing is that it was obviously the emperor's order to discard Ye Sheng's body in the mass grave, but when the petite girl walked out of the house step by step with her big brother on her back, no one stopped her.
Come to think of it, whose will it is.
"Where do you want to take him?" Stunned watched Ye Qinzhu come out, already planning to go back to his life.
But seeing Ye Qinzhu biting his lip and wanting to cry without tears, he couldn't help but ask more.
"He wouldn't want to sleep in the east of the city. Ye Qinzhu's face no longer had an expression, and she said coldly, "I plan to take him to the west of the city, the eldest brother has the people in his heart, and with them, at least he will not be alone." ”
It's too cold in the east of the city, and my brother sleeps here, and his heart will be cold.
"Your clothes and belongings are here. Stunned didn't bother to talk to her, handed over a stone, and turned to leave.
Ye Qinzhu took all her things, followed suit, and walked towards the inner wall.
It was past noon, and by the time Ye Qinzhu came to the inner wall, it was already dusk.
She didn't have the heart to be questioned again, so she simply climbed over the city wall and turned down.
She opened her swollen red eyes and continued walking.
One step, two steps, she suddenly stopped, looking incredulously at the tip of her shoe that appeared in view.
Xiao ...... Sir?"
Xiao Qi stood in front of her, sighed softly, and stretched out his hand to her.
"I have already asked His Highness for permission, if Miss Ye San doesn't mind, there is still a clean place in my yard, let the eldest prince come over." ”
Ye Qinzhu shook his head and refused: "Even if Mr. Xiao doesn't care, aren't you worried about that group of children?"
"They've grown up. Xiao Qi looked at Ye Qinzhu's bent back, stepped forward softly, and walked over Ye Sheng's body.
"Children who have grown up know good and evil, and can distinguish between loyalty and righteousness, and there must be no problem for them to accompany such a son. ”
"If Miss Qin doesn't want to go, then let's send charcoal in the snow to repay Miss Qin. He squeezed out a smile and comforted Ye Qinzhu.
Ye Qinzhu's hand holding the corner of Ye Sheng's clothes finally let go, she bit her lip, and finally said after hesitating for a long time:
"Then there is a lot of work. ”
Xiao Qi nodded and walked in front of Ye Qinzhu.
The setting sun stretched his tall and thin back, reflecting the remnants of the sun on the horizon like blood.
Blood, not for money, spread on the stone steps of King Lu's mansion.
King Lu, who has always loved his subordinates, has a bright sword like snow in his hand, and a sword will kill one person.
The figure of the moon loomed, and everywhere he went, blood was stacked.
Qi Qiaochu shrank in the room in horror, stunned by what was happening in front of him.
"Yang Qingtan, what are you doing! What are you going to do!" she screamed.
The third prince crossed his sword and pointed at her.
"Kill you. ”
