Chapter 177: The Choice of the Two
Everything that had been withdrawn seemed to be completely back at this moment, like a traveler in the desert seeing water, he desperately struggled to break free from the arms of the guards, and knelt down on the tall and majestic figure standing in front of them without hesitation, and he cried silently: "Father, father! You save Xuan'er, please hurry up and save him! ”
He couldn't even feel his own voice trembling, and the guard who rescued him was even more shocked: "The Seventh Prince is also inside?" It's not good, you can't let the demon hurt the Seven Princes! ”
He felt his father's sleeve flutter, and there seemed to be a sound of hunting and shattering in the air, and he said sharply: "Jin Lingjun listens to the order!" Lock this place, no one is allowed to let out! ”
"Yes!" The high-spirited voice pierced the quiet night, and he was stunned to realize that his father had actually come with the most intimate iron cavalry Jin Ling army this time, they were neatly armoured, decorated with Jin Ling, and the solemn killing aura around them seemed to be an impregnable wall, lined up in a neat and orderly manner.
"The rest of the people, all follow me!"
Father bypassed him, with the mighty forbidden army and walked quickly towards Merlin, Cheng Yi sat on the ground as if his strength had been withdrawn, he wiped a handful of sweat in a panic, was blown by the cold winter wind, he finally felt the cold to the bone, the guard wanted to help him up, he pushed the man away and followed the footsteps of his father and ran up, he stumbled against the wall, trying his best not to let his legs go weak.
Smoke billowed from the Merlin that obscured the entire sky. His heart shuddered, and he ran eagerly towards it.
His father and the forbidden army walked very fast, but when he saw that the door was opened, his father seemed to pause at the door, and did not step forward, he staggered to the front of his father, and finally understood why his father's expression became so shocked.
"Chengyi, don't look at it!" He heard his father's loud shout, he rarely lost his temper so much, stepped forward and broke Cheng Yi's shoulder, but it was too late, Cheng Yi effortlessly found his younger brother's figure in the firelight, but that scene, like a soldering iron imprinted into his eyes and heart, suddenly pierced him, and fixed his footsteps in place.
"Ahh He heard a miserable scream beside him again, Cheng Yi suddenly woke up, it turned out that the guard who saved him was also turned behind and worried about him, and when he approached, he was slashed by the Jin Ling army behind him.
Blood splattered on his cheeks, and he trembled uncontrollably.
It was also extremely rare that the White Emperor did not reprimand him for his fragile mind because of this, but hugged his body with his big hands, and it was quiet for a long time, as if time had stood still.
He heard his father's deep sigh, as if coming from a distant distance: "Bring that child out and put these guards and their families in good health." ”
"Yes. But this Molin Court ......"
"Just leave it like this, go down to the fire, everything will be closed, and there is nothing wrong with being clean."
His father stood up and held him all the time, and he was also attached to his father for the first time
The emperor's shoulders, uncontrollable tears stained his clothes, his father did not blame him for his great disrespect, he also did not have the courtesy of the past, from a distance it looked like an ordinary father and son.
And their first intimate contact was because it turned all his fate upside down, and after that, everything was like the gears of a switch, and time began to turn, and what he saw and heard that night changed not only the departure of his brother, but even his fate for the next few years.
When His Royal Highness's words came to this, there was a subtle pause, Huang Mo scratched his ears and cheeks when he listened, and the nine babies on the side were lying on the treetops like a cow and actually fell asleep like this, Huang Mo asked eagerly: "What happened behind the scenes?" ”
His Royal Highness closed the fragrant tea in his hand, raised his eyes and said concisely: "After that, I have been stupid until now." ”
Huang Mo: "...... Why? ”
His Royal Highness seemed to think that her anxious appearance was really interesting, and a faint smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth, but she quickly covered it up.
What happened after that, this is the top secret of the royal family, this matter is only known to him and his father, after his father carried him all the way to his imperial study, dismissed everyone, put him on a chair, leaned down to look at him, held the face of Chengyi who was still fascinated, frowned and asked, "What do you know?" ”
Cheng Yi shook his head blankly: "I don't know anything." ”
"What do you see?"
"I didn't see anything."
"What happened tonight?"
"Tonight I was cleaning in Merlin, and because I couldn't sleep well, I knocked over the oil lamp, so the candle burned, and I was rescued, but the guards were implicated in my negligence and burned to death."
“…… You can say that again. The brows that my father had been entangled in one place finally relaxed, and he looked at his child and said: "I heard that you are the child who is most like me before, but I have never believed it, but when I see you today, I can already get a glimpse of it, and I am very relieved." ”
"......" faced with his father's praise, he became even more nervous, Cheng Yi just knew clearly that they had to defend the same person, he thought that when his father actually went out in person, and also took the Son of Heaven with him to ban the army, he knew that his father had always known what Cheng Xuan's identity was, and what he had to do was that everyone who witnessed this incident would not survive tomorrow.
And among these people, there is a son of his own.
He doesn't know what his father will do with him, a large part of Cheng Xuan's identity was revealed by him, he knew that he couldn't ask anything, every word he said would affect his father's judgment, and it was common for many historical records to mercilessly execute relatives in order to maintain secrets, and it was so when he was born in the royal family, in order to achieve certain goals, he would minimize the loss by any means, which was also a compulsory course for the emperor's power.
He clasped his hands tightly.
His father patted him on the shoulder, then stood up and paced as he walked
Every step made him a little uncomfortable, he knew that his father was in trouble, he had always been a decisive person, and he did not hide that he had once killed his father and devoured his brother to ascend to the throne, and his father's achievements were even more ruthless in addition to wisdom, but would he still be defeated in the words that the tiger poison does not eat the son?
Sweat oozed from his forehead.
Father's footsteps suddenly stopped.
His heart thumped.
"Chengyi, why did you come back with me?" Father's voice came.
He was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head, swallowed a mouthful of liquid, and still chose to tell the truth: "I saw my brother turn into a monster, and I was worried that he would be injured." ”
"You know he's turned into a monster, but you're still begging me to save him? Why is that? ”
"Because he's my brother."
"You were born in the royal family, have you ever learned in the history books that there was a friendship between the brothers and sisters of the royal family?"
“…… Even so, Cheng Yi also dare not forget, the love is close to thousands of miles, loyalty and righteousness are in dilemma, but mercy Chengxuan, this is our flesh and blood, father and son filial piety, the luck of the family, the loyalty of the monarch and the minister, and the prosperity of the country. This is my heart, and I dare not deviate slightly. ”
“…… But I'm still a little ghost, and if I have time to read those deflated books, I'd better eat more and go outside for more runs! His father seized his head again.
He raised his head in a daze, not knowing what his father meant by this.
"You can't go on like this. If you really want to save Cheng Xuan. Father's voice fell silent, but it made him hear every word very clearly: "You have to remember that after you were rescued, you had a fever for five days, and then you woke up ......" Father paused: "You have become an idiot." ”
His eyes widened, and then his expression slowly regained his tranquility, jumped down from the chair, knelt down in front of his father, and bowed: "Yes, the son of the minister takes the order." ”
Such a sentence has become the oath he has adhered to so far. He also knew what he was carrying.
