Chapter 202: Satisfied
The emperor reacted quickly and ordered the forbidden army to surround the Xianwang Mansion, and it was said that someone had discovered that the assassin who had killed Lu Jingzhi had appeared around the Xianwang Mansion. He didn't let the forbidden army break in, but gave Qi Xiaoyun a chance, and of course a chance for himself. In the end, he really didn't want to tear his face, he told himself that as long as Qi Xiaoyun obediently admitted his mistakes, he would forgive him!
But the forbidden army waited left and right, knocked on the door for a long time, and no one paid attention to them. The emperor sighed in his heart, and gave an order angrily, and the forbidden army broke into the door violently, only to find that the originally quiet Xianwang Mansion was only an empty shelf at this time, and they turned around a few times, and they didn't even let go of the flowers and trees, but they still found nothing, and they didn't even see a single figure.
The emperor gasped violently when he received the news, and the whirring wheezing sound was like a broken bellows. He was like a kite with a broken string, leaning weakly on the dragon chair, and his flushed face had a sense of impending despair. What a Qi Xiaoyun! He smiled wryly, his eyes shining with resentment. At this point, he had a little brain, and he also figured out the cause and effect of this.
Qi Xiaoyun did not leave suddenly, he had premeditated. I'm afraid that Lu Jingzhi is not to the point of being hopeless, this is definitely a trick played by Qi Xiaoyun, the purpose is to send the Lu family out of the capital, so that he will lose the weapon that hinders the Qinghe Mansion and him. The emperor suddenly burst out laughing, his good son, for the sake of others, actually tried his best to calculate him!
The Emperor laughed and laughed, and he angrily swept all the twists and turns on the dragon case to the ground, and the roar resounded through the empty hall. "Go and search me door to door, dig three feet into the ground, and find out the virtuous king for me." Qi Xiaoyun had not left Beijing yet, and the emperor viciously thought that even if he was a mouse, he would find out his mouse hole. And this time there will be no tolerance!
The old eunuch looked at the twists and turns scattered all over the place, and sighed deeply and helplessly, His Majesty's temper has become more and more strange in the past two years, often inexplicably angry, and always makes some unexpectedly bad decisions. Although he was just a lowly eunuch, he understood that King Xian did not have any ill intentions, and his disinterest in the throne was only shown on his face.
Compared with those princes who are keen on fighting for power, King Xian is definitely a clear stream in the mudslide. But he really couldn't figure out what the emperor thought, the virtuous king had already shown such no desire and no desire, why the emperor always targeted him. With suspicion, jealousy and difficulty, the love between father and son was squandered alive, leaving no trace.
Although King Xian seems to be indifferent, he is actually affectionate and righteous, and the emperor is so willful, sooner or later he will regret it one day. It's just that these are definitely not things that he should worry about as a lowly eunuch, and he hopes that since King Xian has left the center of this non-swamp, he will not come back. Now let the emperor go crazy, maybe it won't be long before the obsession in the emperor's heart is let go, and then the world will be peaceful.
But there are not so many ifs in this world, the emperor did not find Qi Xiaoyun, but he himself came back in a grand manner. Of course, the process of his return was not very pleasant, and even the way he met the emperor was not very friendly, he rode a tall horse, and carried a bloody head in his hand, raised his head, and looked at the emperor with the same cold face with an expressionless face.
"Father, after so many years, are you tired?" Without waiting for the emperor to answer, he asked himself, "Whether you are tired or not?" Erchen is tired. "He is really tired, when he is defending his family and defending the country, he also has to worry about whether his relatives behind him will give him a fatal knife, this feeling of having a wolf in front and a tiger in the back is really bad, he has endured it for so many years, and finally can't bear it anymore.
"Your fox tail finally can't be hidden," the emperor's eyes were murderous, he stared indifferently at Qi Xiaoyun's cold eyes, those eyes were somewhat similar to his own, in the past he could still see a little expectation, now except silence, there is nothing left. When did their relationship become worse than that of strangers? "I've been waiting!"
I thought I would get an impassioned defense, but unexpectedly, Qi Xiaoyun just smiled lightly, and said lightly, "Father, I never thought about robbing anything in the past, even if I stand in front of you now, I still haven't thought about it." He looked straight at the emperor, his dark eyes glowing with a deep light, "It's just that you don't believe me, father, all along." ”
It's like having paranoia about being killed, like a thief, stubbornly guarding against him. He has always been self-aware, and what should not be delusional, he never delusional; What belongs to him, he will cherish. He just wants to live a life where people don't offend me, and I don't offend people, but the ideal is plump, the reality is skinny, she doesn't want to make trouble, but trouble always harasses him.
"If you don't want to, then why don't you surrender the military power?" The Emperor sneered, his eyes rolling with mockery. "You know that what I want most is the military power in your hands, but you have repeatedly violated my wishes, if you don't care that you are my son, how can I tolerate you until now! I trust you so much, but you have betrayed my trust, and you are simply unforgivable. ”
Qi Xiaoyun glanced at him mockingly, and replied lightly, "I handed it over, but you confiscated it." "This kind of thing of withholding pots, he does it perfectly, what is called reversing right and wrong, this is.
was exposed to the lie in public, the emperor was angry, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, and watched Qi Xiaoyun throw the bloody human head in his hand to the ground, he took a closer look, and found that the human head was actually the leader of the forbidden army. He couldn't control his temper that was getting more and more raging, he pointed at Qi Xiaoyun's nose and scolded, his hands were shaking, and his voice was shaking, "Bastard, you dare to kill him!" ”
The emperor was obviously angry at the moment, but Qi Xiaoyun seemed to have made up his mind to give him a temper today, and replied without hurrying or salty, "This person is guilty of the following crimes, his heart can be punished, his father is busy with government affairs, and his sons and ministers have done their best to punish this small person for their father." "If he hits his relatives with his ideas, he will not be merciful!
"You... Unfilial son! The emperor gasped for breath, and the eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to give him relief, and he coughed violently, as if he wanted to cough out his whole heart and lungs. Suddenly, he felt a fishy sweet smell welling up in his throat, and the eunuch saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately handed over the handkerchief, he took the handkerchief, covered his thin lips, and after a while, he saw a dazzling red stain on the handkerchief!
The emperor's face changed drastically, he snorted and panted, and leaned weakly on the eunuch's body. But in the blink of an eye, the spirit on his body seemed to be emptied out of thin air, and the whole person became extremely haggard. He was lying on his back, his temples were as white as snow, and the appearance of this old dragon clock was no different from that of ordinary old people.
Time is a pig-killing knife, although I don't want to admit it, but he is really old. Although he is called Banzai, there is no eternal life in this world, and Banzai is just a beautiful expectation.
"Father, the son has no intention of embarrassing you, and I came here today just to discuss something." Under the emperor's gaze, he said slowly, and instantly set off a hurricane request, "Erchen invited himself to go to Fog City, and if he does not return to Beijing within three lifetimes, he hopes that his father will be fulfilled!" ”
This is equivalent to his automatic and complete abandonment of the struggle for the throne, and the emperor has a cold face and an inquiring gaze patrolling his body without fear. Qi Xiaoyun let him look at it in a bright and upright manner, and the surroundings instantly quieted down, and even his breathing was extremely heavy. This was his last compromise, and if the emperor did not allow it, he would have to resort to some unconventional means to achieve his goal.
Silence, a long and suffocating silence. Everyone was silent, and their worried eyes kept shifting between the two most noble people in the world. These two men who hold the power of life and death, no matter who they are, as long as they stomp their feet lightly, they can make the floating corpse thousands of miles.
"Why went to Fog City?" Fang had just coughed violently and hurt his throat, and the emperor's voice was very hoarse, so low that people couldn't hear any emotion.
Qi Xiaoyun smiled bitterly, "My father always doesn't worry about his sons, so he goes to a place where his father can't see." There is no choice but to say this, and there is also sincerity. They seem to have reached the point where they hate each other, and seeing each other is nothing more than torturing each other.
There was another uncomfortable silence, and just when everyone thought the emperor would not answer, he finally spoke. His voice was extremely low, but with a promise of certainty, it was simple, there was only one word, but Qi Xiaoyun finally smiled. He said, "Good! ”
The eunuch was very eye-catching and handed over a blank decree and consciously acted as a human table. After the emperor finished writing the holy decree, he threw it off the tower.
After the saber rattling, there was no expected battle between the soldiers, Qi Xiaoyun turned over and dismounted, picked up the holy decree, knelt on the ground, bowed respectfully, and shouted: "Long live my emperor, the ministers obey the order!" ”
There was undisguised relief and relaxation in that clear voice, and I saw that the handsome face that had always been expressionless had a warm smile.
With the support of the eunuchs, the emperor slowly walked towards the palace, and the rickety back looked more and more desolate in the huge palace. He didn't look back until he returned to the dormitory. He leaned weakly on the dragon chair, staring blankly at the exquisite ceiling, and the sadness in his heart had turned into a sea.
He thought that maybe he would never see Qi Xiaoyun again in this life. He used the most decisive means to force away the son he admired the most.
Qi Xiaoyun took the holy decree and left the capital almost impatiently, and happily went to the fog city where the climate was the worst, the environment was the worst, and the people were the poorest.
The people of the city reluctantly watched him go, maybe from today onwards, they would never see the majestic god of war again, but they knew that their god of war would silently guard them in another place, giving them happiness and peace.
Qi Xiaoyun went all the way south, smiling and chasing his happy life. The past is over, and the beautiful life has just begun.
