Chapter 206: Seeing the Sun
Some things poured at the last moment, and he realized that he had to let go. So, his hand holding her wrist unconsciously loosened.
Blood slid down the blade into the hilt, and slowly sank into the intricate pattern of the blade. The pattern gradually became clearer, and you could see its regular lines, which seemed to be some handwriting.
The emperor suddenly lifted his spirits, his hand reached for the hilt of the sword, and he pulled the sword out violently.
He didn't pay attention to Kang Yufei's expression, pressed his wound, took the sword, and carefully looked at the handwriting on it.
The blood didn't flow anywhere on the sword, but I could still vaguely see most of the words on it.
…… Thirteen cities north of Cimo City...... Lizhen Northland ...... Independent and self-governing ...... Forever ......
The content of the edict is so unbelievable.
I don't know if his injuries are too serious, or his heart palpitations, the blood flow is getting more and more uncontrollable, he looks at the handwriting in front of him more and more clearly, but his breathing is becoming more and more unsustainable, and finally, he faints.
Whether it was a dream or a reality, he saw some people, all in armor and bloodstained, exhausted but still standing around him with a compelling momentum......
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, we will escort you out."
"Okay, good, if you can get out safely, you are my brothers, and I will share the world with you equally." He couldn't speak unconsciously.
But the people around him were not happy.
"Weichen ......" suddenly a knife came from the shadows, so that there was no way to continue to say this.
Blood splattered into his eyes, causing him to be frightened and shout, "General Kang......"
He struggled desperately to open his eyes. The surroundings are still familiar with the Qingshui Pavilion dormitory, it turns out that it was a dream just now.
Thinking about the events in this dream, he was very familiar with them. When Emperor Taizu was trapped in the enemy army, the brothers and nephews of the Kang family risked death to save each other, and it was this great achievement that made the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and there was also a bloody iron edict at this time.
However, the content of the blood book iron edict is to give up half of the country. It was something he would never dare to think about.
"Your Majesty, you are awake, just wake up. Gonggong Zhao, please come and have a look. Li Kai stood beside the bed and was excited when he saw him open his eyes.
"Yu Fei, Yu Fei, don't ......" It seems that he has not yet broken free from the pain, and the emperor is a little unconscious when he speaks.
"According to the emperor's instructions, it has not been made public, and now, the county lord of Yufei is still cultivating in Qingning Palace."
The emperor breathed a long sigh of relief and lay down peacefully.
Li Kai naturally understood the emperor's intentions, and easily did not dare to toss Kang Yufei, who had just recovered from injury, and besides, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion was calmed down, and there could be no more troubles.
Wang Yanfeng came in to see the two of them without speaking, and didn't dare to speak more, so he went straight forward to check the pulse and look at his face.
"Imperial Doctor Wang, how is the situation?" Li Kai asked.
"The situation is okay, it's okay, the medicine that Lord Yufei used to stop bleeding really has a miraculous effect." Imperial Physician Wang's face was overjoyed.
When the emperor heard this, he raised his head and looked at him.
Li Kai nodded, "The county lord of Yufei stopped the bleeding and took medicine for you, so as to save your life." ”
The emperor laughed, although it hurt from the wound, he still smiled happily.
"Li Kai, go and make it clear to Yufei, Zhenbei Hou Mansion, I will settle it, as before, Zhenbei Hou is in charge of the Zhenbei Army." This time, the emperor said it relaxedly, as if the wound had healed in that moment.
Li Kai nodded.
I don't know when I remembered the cicada chirping outside the window, it was another summer, it was really a good time, the emperor looked out the window, and suddenly he was a little shaken. It seems that there have been many years of peace and stability like this. The calculation should start from Taizu's pacification of the northern provinces, perhaps this is not very accurate, and it should start from the establishment of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei.
Taiping was originally determined by the general, and the general was not allowed to see the peace.
I don't know if Emperor Taizu remembered this sentence, and only then did he have such courage and bearing to dare to write such an edict. It's a pity that Emperor Taizu didn't know that this edict had never been taken out by the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and they were even afraid that the edict would be discovered one day and hidden for decades.
The emperor looked at the floating clouds floating outside the window and shook his head, "It's really not easy for them to be stable......
They survived on the battlefield, and the court fought for them to hide, obviously they were the princes of the powerful side, and they were obviously holding an edict that could turn the clouds and rain, and they could clearly establish themselves as a country, but they were willing to swallow their anger and bow their heads to obey orders for the sake of stability. Thinking about it like this, the emperor suddenly felt that he was very unbearable, and his mind, courage, and courage were no better than those rude and reckless men who were often ridiculed in the north.
Kang Yufei can't look down on herself, think about it, and it should be. Even, he felt that he was not as good as this Yufei county lord who gave up his dignity and identity to enter the palace, and survived all kinds of humiliations, just for the blood and iron edict.
As soon as the floating clouds passed, revealing the clear blue sky, he sighed, and couldn't help but shake his head, "Clear white clouds are the best match." But I ......"
It can't hold up that side of the blue sky, he understands.
In summer, there will occasionally be a cool breeze blowing, Kang Yufei stood under the porch, raised his eyes to look at the dazzling sun, but felt fresh and comfortable, as if he had adapted to the climate here.
When did it start, maybe it was that sword that stabbed down? It seems that all the pain and discomfort in my heart are suddenly released, and it is much easier all of a sudden. But what she didn't understand was, why did she save him again?
Maybe Li Kai outside the door can give her an answer. She turned to Hongxia and said, "Please come in, Lord Li." ”
The four words of the blood book and iron edict have always been a thorn in the emperor's heart, but now that the thorn is pulled out, he has mixed tastes and surging up.
"Your Majesty, the lord of Yufei asks to see you." Zhao Baojiang stepped forward and said softly.
He quickly struggled to his feet, "Quick, please come in." ”
When the two met again, they no longer had the momentum of sabre-rattling, and they were much calmer. It was probably the hatred and anger, the infatuation and resentment of the past two years, when they drew their swords and stabbed them in the chest, turned into that pool of blood and flowed away.
Kang Yufei stood in the distance, hesitated for a long time, and then came closer, "I heard that the emperor woke up, I ......"
"I know, I understand." The emperor preemptively helped her finish, "I don't blame you for this, I forced you too much." ”
Kang Yufei was quite surprised when she heard this, and looked up at him, there was no longer the resentful look in her eyes that she had some time ago.
"I, in fact, I have never doubted the loyalty of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion." The emperor sat up straight, trying to regain his authority, and had been humbled in front of her for too long, and sometimes, he couldn't remember what he was supposed to be.
"I, I know, Master Li told me." There was no scorching heat in his eyes, and Kang Yufei could calmly meet his gaze, "The emperor must deal with the matter of military salary, and it is a last resort." And the eldest brother, it was ......" just when it came to this, she still bowed her head sadly.
