Chapter 236: Happy and Sad
After accompanying the princess to the other world the next day, it really opened his eyes.
I didn't expect that the little girl who spoke softly on weekdays and saw him was extremely well-behaved, and she had such a majestic side.
In the face of the development of events, he was calm and calm, without fear.
And punishing those Situ clan relatives who have been disrespectful to the queen is by no means soft.
I don't know if the queen arrived later, whether it was a coincidence, or whether the little princess arranged it early in the morning.
Anyway, it doesn't matter.
Now that I think about it, I just think that the little princess is really wonderful.
The changeable personality is always gentle to him.
In the face of the wicked, they have the courage to punish; In the face of those in need, we will do our best to help.
The heart of a child, that's all.
Since then, he has secretly admired the little princess.
The ghost sent the gods, and since the time of insomnia in the middle of the night, he drew the appearance of the little princess on the scroll.
For thousands of years, his heart has always been lonely, and he has never opened his heart easily.
And the feeling of surging in his chest made him both excited and flustered.
He knew that at his age, he would never fall in love with the little princess.
But whenever I see the princess, I can't help but want to be close.
The Demon King was already very dissatisfied with him since what he said at that dinner, and he knew that he really shouldn't be affectionate to the public.
Therefore, since then, he has tried to distance himself from the princess.
But who would have thought that even if he deliberately dodged, after all, on that day, he was still called to the Golden Feather Palace by the queen's mother.
What should come will come.
At his age, he should never have agreed to this marriage.
But I don't know what happened that day, Xu is king and queen's mother, as well as His Royal Highness, were too distressed about the princess, so they forced him to settle this family matter.
His mood at that time was both happy and sad.
But he was always lucky to think that he could survive 9,000 years old.
For the people of the fox clan, the longevity is generally shorter than that of other races.
This is true of fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers.
The reason why the eldest sister was able to live past nine thousand years was also because she had been sealed for thousands of years before, and now she woke up again, just to continue her previous life.
But he never thought that the reason why he was not old was not because of his cultivation, but because of that terrible stubborn disease.
Fate really played a joke on him
gave him the sweetest fruit in the world, but it drove him into the abyss from which he could never recover.
When the doctor checked his pulse and told him that he had a year to live, he couldn't sleep all night.
After a whole night of deliberation and painful struggle, he finally made up his mind to break the engagement.
When he finally mustered up the courage to present the recital of his retirement, he caught up with the king and became seriously ill.
In desperation, he had no choice but to forward the piece to His Royal Highness and ordered him to convey it on his behalf.
When he had finished handing over the cantata, his heart was still in turmoil, as if he had done something wrong.
Later, after receiving a summons from the king, he entered the Golden Palace Hall for the first time with such trepidation.
At first, he didn't want to tell the reason, but under the pressure of the king and queen, he had to confess his illness.
He was very able to understand the excesses of the queen's mother.
When the inkstone flew at him, he didn't have the slightest intention of dodging.
Because, he did live up to the expectations of the king and queen, and lived up to the princess's love.
At that time, he thought, if this inkstone is smashed
When I came down, I died like this, which was also a relief.
Feeling the blood gurgling outward, his head became more and more dizzy.
Since then, he has known that his fate with the princess is really over.
No matter how hard he struggled, it was useless.
Even if he can't let go of any woman in this world except in her heart, he must be ruthless and stab her by saying the most mean and cold-blooded words in the world.
Perhaps, from the very beginning, it was doomed, and everything was just this empty joy.
Now looking at himself in the bronze mirror, he is both helpless and unwilling.
Perhaps, since he was born, he just came to wait for her
Now, she's here, and after meeting her, she's doomed to miss it.
If there was an afterlife, he only wanted to be born later and meet her at just the right time.
Three days later, in the evening, Xuanyuan Zhe finally handed over the patriarch inheritance letter written by himself to Xuanyuan Ruji.
"As you wish, after I am gone, I will call your younger brother Xuanyuan Che to inherit the position of patriarch. It can be regarded as a reward for your family's cooperation with the patriarch to get married. ”
"Brother Wuyi, you and I are husband and wife, why do you need to say this?"
After getting the letter, Xuanyuan Ruji couldn't help but soften her tone and said with a obedient look.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Zhe only smiled coldly.
The smile, with a hint of weakness and disdain.
"Your marriage to me is nothing but a deal, and I have already completed it. I only hope that after I die, you can keep it a secret, and don't make the real cause of my death public."
"Don't worry, Brother Wuyi, I will keep the secret for you."
"Don't call me Brother Wuyi, you don't deserve it"
Although his face was full of ravines at the moment, his heart was as high as ever.
The woman in front of him, although he was obedient to him on the surface, what kind of thoughts he was secretly hiding, how could he not know
"And why is the painting in my room missing, and the acquaintance is returning it quickly"
"Brother Wuyi, you have wronged me, since I beat you and I to become relatives, I have never entered your room alone and have ever been with me"
"I told you not to call me Brother Wuyi in the future, are you deaf and get out"
Xuanyuan Zhe, who was suddenly angry, was so angry that he kept gasping, holding the table with one hand, like that, he was not half fierce, but there was a sense of irony that trapped the beast was still fighting.
When the woman heard this, she only glanced at her lightly, and then she shook her handkerchief and went out of the hall.
Anyway, now that she has obtained this inheritance book, as long as Che'er can finally sit on the position of patriarch, she can be regarded as seeking the greatest benefit for her mother's family.
As for this man who doesn't love her, he won't live for a few days anyway.
Since they have been trading since the beginning, there is nothing to be sad about.
The night was getting stronger, and Xuanyuan Zhe, who was standing alone by the window, rarely opened the window to breathe.
He knew he was going to die.
The whole body is weak, and he can only barely maintain walking, sitting and lying.
Now that his mana is declining severely, he even has to rely on people to serve him even to change his clothes.
The wind blew from the window for a long time, until I felt a slight chill on my body, and finally reluctantly closed the window.
Turning around, he was about to take a step forward, but an immortal with golden light suddenly appeared in front of him.
After a closer look, he recognized that it was Bai Diqiu.
"Ziqian Shangxian, I really didn't expect that I, a dying person, would have the opportunity to meet you again."
As he spoke, Xuanyuan Zhe wanted to step forward, but he had only walked two short distances before his feet were soft and fell to the side.
Just as he was about to fall, his body was helped to the side by a force.
He wanted to turn his head to see who had helped him, but he turned his face to look to his side and saw nothing.
At that time, Xiaojin came invisible, in order not to let Xuanyuan Zhe know who she was.
And Bai Diqiu knew her intention to come invisible, but he didn't pierce it.
Looking at the beautiful young man in the past, but now he has grown old like this, Xiao Jin couldn't help but burst into tears in an instant.
His originally black and thick hair was now more white and less black.
Even his proudest appearance was portrayed beyond recognition by the ravines.
"Xuanyuan Zhe, the reason why this immortal can come here today is entirely because there is a person who has gone down to the mortal world to do good deeds for nearly 10,000 years in order to help you renew your longevity. It's a pity that there are only a few dozen pieces missing, and you can renew your life for another 5,000 years. ”
"Who is the person whom the immortals say?"
He subconsciously looked around, but he couldn't see anyone other than the two of them in the hall.
The slightly cloudy eyes were both expectant and frustrated.
"Who she is, you must know better in your heart. It's a pity that she was heartbroken because of your divorce, and in a fit of rage, she destroyed the contract of good fortune. Therefore, today, when your time has come, and the time of your death is at hand, what else do you have to say?"
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Zhe couldn't help but reluctantly hook the corners of his lower lip and shook his head gently.
"I hope that the princess will completely forget me from now on, as if she had never met such an ominous person as me."
"You really don't have anything to say to the princess to stay?"
When Bai Diqiu said this, his eyes subconsciously glanced at Xiao Jin, who was hidden from Xuanyuan Zhe's side.
opened his mouth, Xuanyuan Zhe wanted to speak and stopped, but finally hung his head, sighed and said, "Forget it."
There were so many things he had to say, but he didn't dare to say a word to the princess.
If she knew what she thought about her, how could she not be sad about his departure
"Don't you really have anything to say?"
"Some words are better hidden in the heart than spoken."
He was extremely calm and unconcerned at the moment.
Except for regretting that he never said a word of liking to Jin frankly, there are no other regrets.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Xuanyuan Zhe finally slowly closed his eyes.
A pair of hands were placed on his knees, and for a moment, the long hair that had been meticulously combed suddenly turned as white as snow.
Looking at Xuanyuan Zhe's body with tears, the golden light suddenly turned into a little starspot, and Xiao Jin almost cried.
A hand was stretched out and tried to grab a little starspot, but in vain.
"Brother Wuyi"
She whispered, in a voice that only she could hear.
There is nothing more heartbreaking than watching your beloved disappear little by little before your eyes.
When all the star spots flew into the sky and flew out of the main hall, Bai Diqiu finally sighed and cast a spell, helping to maintain Xuanyuan Zhe's soul.
Immediately, he conjured up a magnificent vessel from the palm of his hand, and his soul was included in it.
"Nishiki, gone"
