Chapter 322: Explanation
Qingfeng was even more confused.
Is it sad to think about my father's death, and to think that the Iron Mask General might also die? Sad and laughing?
Zhou Xuan looked at his puzzled expression, smiled, and patted Qingfeng's shoulder: "Don't think about it too much, Qingfeng, when you can't figure it out, you're actually very happy." β
Qingfeng really threw it away and didn't want to think about it: "Okay, I don't want to, just follow Childe to do things." β
Zhou Xuan was silent for a moment: "It's not necessarily good." β
What he has to do, in Chen Danzhu's words, if you die, I can only mourn in my heart - that is a big crime of the Zhujiu clan, if he fails to do something, Qingfeng, as an entourage, will not end well.
Thinking of Chen Danzhu, he smiled, and his eyes were heavy, Chen Danzhu, even more pitiful, he has done so many things, under the emperor's order, he still has to endure the pain and hide his hatred to pick up his sister, and the sisters face the humiliating gift for them together.
Where has Chen Danzhu gone now? Arriving in Xijing soon? Every step she took along the way was like stepping on the tip of a knife, right?
Zhou Xuan glanced in the direction of Xijing and clenched his hands, so-
"Some things still have to be done, and some things have to be done."
For himself, and for her.
Seeing that Childe was in a strange mood again, Qing Feng didn't think about it again this time, and directly handed the reins to Zhou Xuan: "Childe, let's go back to the barracks." β
When Zhou Xuan returned to the barracks, the sky was already dark, and when he approached the barracks, he found that the atmosphere was not quite right.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Xuan hurriedly asked to usher in the deputy general.
The adjutant general said in a low voice: "Wang Xian is back." β
Zhou Xuan babbled and jumped off the horse: "You dare to come back?" Is this a cure has been found? As he spoke, he rushed to the big tent of the Chinese armyβ
The deputy general hurriedly stopped him: "Master Hou, don't let you get close now." β
Zhou Xuan had already rushed to the big tent of the Chinese army, and sure enough, when he saw him coming, the swords and guns of the guards were aimed at him in unison.
Zhou Xuan didn't break through and stopped.
"Master Hou." The adjutant general gasped and chased after him, "Your Majesty still won't let you in, wait a little longer, Wang Xian has brought good medicine, and there will be good news soon." β
Zhou Xuan looked at the Chinese army's tent over there and said, "I hope there is good news." β
......
......
In the big tent of the Chinese army, which was tighter than before, there seemed to be no change, a screen partition, and an iron-masked general lay on a bed behind it, and the emperor with a gloomy face stood next to him.
The difference is that the iron-masked general, who was originally lying motionless and stiff, was much softer at this time, and he gently changed his position and lay down with a long sigh: "Your Majesty, the old minister wants to sleep for a while." β
The voice is full of exhaustion from waking up from a serious illness, and it sounds very pitiful.
But the emperor did not have the slightest pity for the old minister, and reached out and grabbed the veteran's shoulder: "Get up!" What to sleep on? You haven't slept enough? β
The veteran sat up helplessly: "Your Majesty, the old minister is really-"
The Emperor raised his hand and took off his iron mask, revealing a white, young face, which was as cold as mountain snow as the night faded a slightly strange beauty.
"Father." The cold man seemed to be helpless, put away the old man, and gently called in a cold voice, so as to be able to soothe people's mental turmoil.
"Chu Yurong." The emperor was not confused at all, his expression was angry, he gritted his teeth and whispered a name, which called out that he himself was a little in a trance and unfamiliar.
This name has rarely been called since he was a child, and he sometimes thinks back a little in a trance, he really had a son and gave this name.
When this son was born and was carried over, he was emaciated, like a newborn cat, the emperor thought of the child's biological mother, the same slender and thin palace maid, the most profound scene in his memory was gently swaying by the lake, reflecting the rare beauty in the palace.
However, the appearance of the sunken fish and geese is only suitable for viewing, not suitable for birth, and when she is pregnant with a child, she will break her body, and she will die, and the child she gives birth to will die at any time.
"Let's call it Yurong." He said casually.
Thinking that he may not live long, he can be regarded as a trip to the world, and he will leave a beautiful name that does not seem to be in the world.
This name has existed until now, but it is still as if he is outside the world, and he is a person who also exists as if he does not exist.
Thinking of this, the emperor's eyes softened a little.
"You were the one who put on the mask of the Iron Mask General, what did I tell you at the time?"
The sixth prince looked at the emperor and said seriously: "Father said that if you put it on, you can't take it off." β
The emperor said in a deep voice: "Then what are you doing now?" β
The sixth prince stretched out his hand and grabbed the emperor's sleeve: "Father-"
The emperor raised his hand to shake him off and took a step back vigilantly: "If you have something to say, don't pull and pull." β
The sixth prince responded, kneeling on the bed and looking at the emperor: "Father, the minister is going to stop Chen Danzhu from killing Miss Yao Si." β
The emperor was stunned, and then shocked: "Chen Danzhu? She killed Miss Yao Si? β
The sixth prince nodded: "Yes, the incident happened suddenly, Erchen had no choice, in order not to expose his deeds, he could only take off his mask, Erchen knew the importance of this matter, but because of His Majesty's holy decree before, as long as the iron-masked general said that he was sick, no one would be able to approach him, and he would not be exposed, so Erchen dared to do thisββ"
The gentle and clear voice was as smooth as spring water, and the emperor raised his hand: "Wait, wait, stop, stop, this matter is not important, don't say it yet, you go on, what's going on with Chen Danzhu?" β
The sixth prince sighed: "Father, Li Liang was killed by Chen Danzhu, Li Liang and her are a great enmity of life and death, Yao Fu is the source of this hatred, how can she let Yao Fu go?" The minister had already dissuaded His Majesty from rewarding Li Liangβ"
The emperor's face was gloomy, and his voice was cold: "What? Who do I want to reward, and do I want Chen Danzhu to be the master? β
"Of course Chen Danzhu can't be His Majesty's master." The sixth prince said, "She doesn't dare to oppose Your Majesty, she only does her own master, so she will go to die with Miss Yao Si, so that she doesn't have to endure being on an equal footing with the enemy Yao Fu, and it won't affect Your Majesty's reward." β
Even if a person dies, he can still receive a reward.
The emperor's body trembled a little, pacing back and forth in the tent, Chen Danzhu, this Chen Danzhu!
"Is she dead?" He shouted.
The sixth prince shook his head: "When the retainer arrived, she didn't have time to stop her from doing it, and Miss Yao Si had already been killed." He sat up straight again, "But Your Majesty can rest assured, the minister will save Chen Danzhu, who is also poisoned, although he has not yet woken up, but his life should be worry-free, waiting for His Majesty's fate." β
Fall! Definitely send her down! The emperor gritted his teeth fiercely, and suddenly stopped again, looking at the six princes kneeling on the bed.
"Isn't that right?" He said, "What did you say to stop Chen Danzhu from killing, you obviously went to save Chen Danzhu, right?" β
The sixth prince looked calm: "Your Majesty, it is better to send down the living than to send the dead, and the sons and daughters are for Your Majesty-"
The Emperor snorted: "I believe your nonsense! With that, he threw up his sleeves and walked out angrily.
Outside the tent, the eunuch Jinzhong was puzzled and hurriedly followed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, where are you going?" β
And Wang Xian, who was walking with the medicine in his hand, stood up smartly and stuck it on the tent, looking like he was afraid of being seen by the emperor.
Of course, the emperor saw it, but he didn't have the strength to scold him.
"Doctors are all rubbish." The emperor only scolded, "I will personally find a doctor for the old general!" β
After that, he looked at the eunuch Jinzhong, who was still stunned, and roared.
"Go back to the palace!"
