Chapter 605 Carrying the sword into the rivers and lakes

The old dean Wan Xingchen bent down to untie the emperor from Su Buwei's back, and after helping the emperor to stand up, he said: "I thought that His Majesty would die earlier, but I didn't expect to die behind many people. It's just that isn't it painful to live like this? ”

Today, he is the only one who has this status and dares to talk to the emperor of the Great Sui like this.

The emperor knew what Wan Xingchen meant, he looked at Su Buxing's mutilated corpse and sighed: "In my life, I have indeed let too many people who should not die die. ”

Wan Xingchen didn't say much, because he knew Emperor Dao's mood at this time.

The emperor turned around and glanced at Yang Chengqian, the new emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty, who was standing timidly on the side, and beckoned to him. Yang Chengqian's body trembled for a moment, then he walked over quickly and fell to his knees with a thud, kowtowing a few times: "Father, ......"

When he was carried by Wan Xingchen on the way, he had prepared a lot of things to say, but when he saw Yang Yi's embarrassed appearance now, he couldn't say those words again. In his impression, his father would never show people like this. He was always so personable, always so graceful and luxurious. But now, although Yang Yi's clothes are still very gorgeous, they are stained with blood and soil, and he looks like a poor beggar.

The emperor looked at his son, who was kneeling in front of him, and after being silent for a while, he pointed to Su Buxing's corpse: "Go and bury him, with your hands." ”

Yang Chengqian was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly got up and began to dig a pit beside Su Buwei with both hands. His identity is destined to have a pair of very white and beautiful hands, and these hands are also destined to be very delicate. But now, he did not dare to show the slightest reluctance, although he was afraid to look at the mutilated corpse.

The old dean stood aside and watched, without saying anything.

When blood broke out on Yang Chengqian's fingers, he barely dug out a shallow pit, and he subconsciously glanced back at his father, but found that there was an undoubted coldness in his father's eyes. This kind of look is familiar to him.

So he bit his lip and didn't plead.

It was a full hour before he used his own hands to dig out a pit that could barely put Su Buxing's body in. And his hands, which were already covered with dirt mixed with blood and dirt, looked particularly miserable, and the emperor seemed to turn a blind eye, just looked at him coldly.

"Dig deeper"

The emperor said.

Yang Chengqian's shoulders trembled again, but this time he didn't look at his father again and continued to dig out like crazy.

After another ten minutes, he stood up strongly, and then picked up Su Fearless's body with his numb hand, which was already painful, and put it into the dirt pit. The emperor walked over tremblingly and kicked Yang Chengqian away. He no longer has the strength to kick his son, but his son also has no strength.

The emperor squatted down and covered the soil on Su Buwei with his own hands.

"Old Dean...... At first, I wasn't sure if you would tell him without waiting for me to return. ”

The emperor said while burying the soil: "I am just not at ease, so I am in a hurry to come back and see." ”

Wan Xingchen was silent for a while and then said, "I told him because I was going out." ”

"I guessed."

The emperor said: "From the moment I saw Liu Enjing send someone to withdraw the cavalry, I knew that you had already told him. Because I told him that there is a big secret about the Yang family, and only I and you know it. Since there were so many people blocking me from going back on the way, I knew that you had already told me the secret. I've never been just a father, I've been a damned emperor. ”

The old dean nodded: "After all, it will be passed on." ”

The emperor buried the soil, and then glanced at Yang Chengqian's hands that were already bloody and fleshy: "I actually don't blame you, because everything you do is what I have taught over the years. I'm glad you didn't forget what I taught you. In fact, Su Buwei wanted to ask me halfway, but he didn't dare to say it...... If he doesn't say it, how can I tell him in person? The one who doesn't want me to go back is actually my son? ”

Yang Chengqian glanced at the emperor in fear, and quickly lowered his head.

"Erchen knows it's wrong!"

"Are you wrong?"

The emperor shook his head: "When I met Liu Enjing, his respect for me was not pretended. He sent a thousand elite horsemen to protect me back to Chang'an, and it was not hypocritical. But when he was about to reach Chang'an City, his cavalry suddenly withdrew and had already arrived here...... Who else but you can get the cavalry back? Then I saw Yang Shunhui, he is also surnamed Yang, and he naturally didn't want to kill me to rebel, if he had that mind, he would have followed him when the sixth rebelled. ”

"Erchen...... Damn it! ”

Yang Chengqian kowtowed vigorously, and soon blood was seen on his head.

"You don't deserve to die, I just said that I taught you these things in my words and deeds, and there is nothing wrong with you doing this. In fact, in addition to confirming that the secret old dean has told you, I also have a thought, which is to test whether you can become a qualified emperor. Thankfully, you didn't disappoint me. ”

Yang Chengqian just kowtowed, and did not justify.

"It's good that you didn't blame someone else for instigating this. What you want to do is what you want to do, and the emperor of the Great Sui must have such courage to take responsibility. I just want to ask you...... Does your mother know that you do this? ”

"Queen Mother...... Ignorance! ”

Yang Chengqian raised his head and looked at the emperor and replied.

"Hmm"

A smile appeared on the corner of the emperor's mouth: "I know how she can do such a thing?" With her kind of temperament, it's not easy to get you up to the dragon chair. For so many years, she had never asked a word about the imperial court, because she hated this hypocrisy from the bottom of her bones...... So, it's hard for her. You must remember that no matter what happens in the future, you must not treat your queen mother badly, and this is one of the words that I must give you in a hurry to return. ”

"Erchen remembered!"

Yang Chengqian nodded vigorously.

"My country will be worn to you sooner or later, since the situation is like this, I have no power to return to the sky, although you are still young, but you can experience hardships earlier, it is a good thing for you to control the world in the future. Remember, this world will always belong to the Yang family, and no one can take it away from the Yang family! ”

The emperor gasped a few times and bowed deeply to the old dean: "Yang Yi thanks the old dean, since the old dean is going to go on a long trip, I can only say the old dean...... Let's go. ”

Wan Xingchen glanced at him: "I will naturally go well, but you will not go too well." When you succeeded to the throne, I said that you should grasp the two things of national and private weapons, because I know what kind of person you are. But in the end, you still use the national weapon as your private weapon, otherwise how could the Great Sui be at this point? So you are not pitiful, but hateful. ”

"I'm only now waking up to what you meant by what you said. I used to think that the national weapon was my private weapon, and my private weapon was the national weapon. ”

"People like you can't teach any good sons."

The old dean glanced at Yang Chengqian: "At this age, I have learned most of your ruthlessness, and I have to face the hearts of the people in the collapsed world, I really can't imagine what kind of person Da Sui will be in the future if he can survive this level...... I have also forgotten, from whom did the descendants of the Yang family become like this? ”

The emperor's body shook, he had never thought about these words.

Oh, yes...... When did the people of the Yang family start to become like themselves and the prince?

The old dean sighed: "Maybe in your eyes, this is the choice that a qualified emperor should make, but in my eyes, the emperor is still a person after all." Your Yang family has always treated others with this attitude, but they still expect others to treat each other with sincerity...... Is it ridiculous? If I were someone like you, then ......"

He didn't continue to say the rest of the words, because he knew that there was no need to say it at all.

The emperor had nothing to refute, because he knew that what the old dean said was right, if the old dean was the same person as him, then the world of the Great Sui might have changed his surname to Wan long ago.

"I'm too lazy to talk about you again, I have taught generations of descendants of the Yang family, and there are at least four or five emperors who have been slapped in the face. Outsiders say that the Yang family has not produced a faint monarch for more than 100 years, who knows how many misbehaving Yang family members I have taught with a stick? How can you keep the same appearance for more than a hundred years? Unless you don't die......"

After hearing this, the emperor knelt down tremblingly and touched the ground with his head.

"Yang Yi, the descendant of the Yang family, thank the old dean for a hundred years!"

"You are not wronged when you kneel, and I don't think it is a great thing for the emperor to kneel to me. What I have done in the past hundred years is worthy of you kneeling for me, and it is also worthy of being remembered by the descendants of your Yang family. But I don't want you to remember that I have been tired of the shackles I have put on myself since a long time ago, and if I don't stay in Chang'an, I can live for another one or two hundred years...... This is not even comparable to the Great Wheel Ming King, because I am really long-lived and he is fake. ”

……

……

The old dean looked at the father and son kneeling in front of him, and suddenly smiled: "Zhilu said, what have I never taught you like the previous Great Sui Emperor did in the past?" ”

Yang Yi was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "I don't know what to do." ”

"Because you knew before you ascended the throne that you wouldn't live long, and I also knew it. I originally thought that it would take you more than ten years to consolidate the foundation of the Great Sui, and then hand over the world to your son smoothly. However, I changed my mind later...... Since your life is so short, I'd better let you live according to your own heart. ”

There was no bitterness or regret in the old dean's smile: "Although I know that I know that if you are left to tinker, this country will be chaotic sooner or later, and your steps are too big, so big that you want to walk out of a peaceful world for 10,000 years in one step." I remember Yang Qi saying to me before he left Chang'an, Master, you have been tired for more than a hundred years, don't be tired anymore. Everything is a natural development and has its own trajectory, and it is better to intervene forcibly than to let it go free. ”

"I remember that."

The old dean smiled: "He persuaded me, and it is still the same reason to kill the Great Wheel Ming King." I don't know what kind of mind he has, he doesn't look like a person from your Yang family in his bones, or even a person. In fact, what I regret is that I didn't teach him a good lesson, and let him stay in the back mountain honestly and continue to practice. He joined the WTO...... I don't know if I'm right or wrong. ”

The emperor's heart was shocked, he didn't expect his seventh brother to say such things to the old dean.

As a descendant of the Yang family, it is indeed a bit rebellious.

"The world is about to change."

The old dean glanced at the emperor: "It's a pity, it's not because of you. ”

"Because of whom?"

The emperor asked subconsciously.

"Outsiders"

The old dean said two words lightly, and then put the package on his back: "There are too many people and things in this world that should not exist, and there are too many unreasonable. Therefore, God will always choose someone who should not exist and is more unreasonable to end all this, and you and I are just spectators. ”

The emperor still wanted to ask, but the old dean shook his head: "Don't ask, I don't understand why such an outsider would appear for Lang." ”

He looked at the long sword in his hand: "This is the choice of heaven." ”

"What is the sky?"

The emperor asked.

"Yes......"

The old dean hesitated for a moment, looked up and smiled: "When I die, I will know the Tao by asking it, because I don't know the Tao either." ”

"I'm leaving."

He carried his bag and held the ancient sword: "You deserve to die too, right?" ”

He asked.

The emperor's body trembled violently, and then he vomited a large mouthful of blood, and in the blood, there were some worms the size of small thumbs wriggling.

"When did you learn the truth?"

He struggled to look at the old dean's back and asked.

But the old dean never spoke again, and did not even look back.

continued his life with poisonous Gu, and after all, he only lived for two or three more years.

In the first year of Emperor Xinghuang of the Great Sui Dynasty, Wan Xingchen, the old dean of the Martial Arts Academy, who didn't know how old he lived, carried a bag and an ancient sword into the rivers and lakes where he had been away for more than a hundred years...... I don't know how many holes I have to poke out.

PS: There is another chapter or so that this volume is coming to an end, a little faster than I expected, but I don't feel rushed, and some of the previous small holes have to be filled.

PS2: It's not a one-man twilight.
