Chapter 232: The King's Death (2)

Hearing the news that Lin Su was in the palace, I hurriedly rushed over to find him, but I saw him standing with the Lin family from a distance.

I couldn't come forward to disturb me, so I could only stand in the corner of the palace, and when I was in trouble, he also saw me, turned his head and said a few words to the people of the Lin family, and then turned around and walked towards me.

Seeing him coming, I smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, listen to Your Highness...... The king said, "Here you are." ”

He hummed lightly, but didn't say anything.

I glanced at him, and saw that the people of the Lin family did not leave, but stood in the distance and looked at us, afraid that they would misunderstand something, so I could only take Lin Suwen to turn to a place where there was no one.

At the silent palace, there is no one around, the withered grass and dead poplars, the cold wind is miserable, although it is almost the early spring, but it is still a little cold.

Wearing a cloak, the cold wind hit, and I couldn't help but tug on my body and asked him, "Don't you have anything to say to me?" ”

The news that he was leaving was told to me by Xiao Zhuo, otherwise, I'm not sure if he would say goodbye to me this time.

Lin Suwen was silent for a moment and said, "The king is looking for you?" ”

I hummed and replied: "He told me that you have reported Zheng Hongwen's matter to him, and he looks at your face, and remembers that Zheng Hongwen has not caused casualties this time, and will not pursue the matter, and has handed over Zheng Hongwen to me to deal with." ”

Hearing this, he said, "That's fine." ”

Thinking of his previous hesitation and hesitation, he really felt that it was a mediocre person who disturbed himself, glanced at Lin Suwen, and said slowly: "I plan to remove Zheng Hongwen from his position and let him leave the Hongwen Pavilion, which is the best result, but thanks to you interceding for us, otherwise, I don't know how to open my mouth to the king, and now, it is also my trouble." ”

Lin Suwen said: "You are always so soft-hearted, you have to pay attention to affection in everything, I'm just afraid, this matter has dragged on for a long time, and in the end, you can't think of apologizing for him." ”

"To tell you the truth, when the head of the Lin family asked me that day, I did hide his affairs."

At first, I was indeed very angry with Zheng Hongwen, but after I understood the reason and suffering, I felt that he was a little pitiful, and then saw that Qi Huanzhi had lost his life in order to save him, so I was completely ruthless and reported his name to Xiao Zhuo.

However, this hesitation is because of something else.

Lin Suwen said helplessly: "Sure enough, ......"

I turned to look at him, was silent for a moment, and said, "You know, when I was using the purification technique, I hesitated when I knew that I would have to lose half of my life's cultivation to save him. ”

"It's really ridiculous to say this, I practiced as a warlock, it was a mistake, and I didn't have much pursuit of cultivation, before I went to southern Xinjiang, I didn't even use magic spells, think about it carefully, if I could use half a lifetime of cultivation to exchange for a human life, I should not have hesitated, but at that time, ...... I'm a little selfish. ”

If it weren't for that momentary hesitation, the person who would have lost half of his life of cultivation now should be me, not Qi Huanzhi.

Although I know that this matter has nothing to do with me, and I should not be responsible for their results, I am still sorry for Qi Huanzhi.

I always felt that if it weren't for my hesitation, he wouldn't have become like this.

"People in the world are always selfish, and no one can be asked to sacrifice oneself, not to mention that half-life cultivation should be no different from one's own life for a warlock."

Lin Suwen comforted me and said: "He gave up his cultivation, it is his affection for that person, you did not give up your cultivation, it is also your duty to yourself, there are only two choices, there is no need to apologize for anything." ”

I read his words several times and smiled, "That's what I said." ”

"Scarlet ......"

He called my name, but paused again, and then said slowly, "I...... I'm leaving. ”

I was stunned, hummed casually, and said, "Your Highness just now...... Your Majesty, you have spoken to me. ”

"About three months ......"

He thought about it for a while, and then changed his words: "In two months, I will be able to come back." ”

"That Suhe Lan clan is not an ordinary person, their family's magic is evil and vicious, I have seen it, if you are against them, you must be careful, do not underestimate the enemy."

He hummed, and I added, "And that kid...... The child who agreed with me to meet in the suburbs of Shengjing City before is called Lan Fei now, the Lan of the Lan clan of Suhe, the Fei who is brilliant to the wind, if you see him on this trip, or learn about him, whether it is life or death, you have to find a way to let me know. ”

"Although he is a member of the Suhe Lan clan, and I don't know if it is evil or not, I owe him an agreement, and I have to pay it back after all."

"And ......"

After thinking about it, he took off the Jin Ling hanging from his waist and handed it to him: "Where the Su Helan clan is located, not far from Biyuntian, if you need anything on this trip, you can take this Jin Ling and go to Yan Yan for help, with her, I can rest assured." ”

Lin Suwen looked at the string of Jin Ling, hesitated, and finally took it and said to me, "Thank you." ”

I said helplessly: "Between you and me, why should you be so polite? ”

"Young Master ......"

Seeing Lin Suwen leave and not returning for a long time, the people of the Lin family came to look for him and stood on the road of the palace to salute him.

He glanced at the man, then at me, said nothing, and turned to walk under the pavilion.

"Plain ......"

I stopped him for a moment and said, "When you leave, I'll send you off." ”

Without waiting for him to speak, he explained to himself: "I haven't sent you before when you left Shengjing and returned to Changying, but this time, I want to send you." ”

He stopped, didn't turn back, and said, "Okay." ”

watched him leave with the Lin family, stood in place for a long time, only to find that at the end of the sight, there was no longer his shadow.

Outside, there were snowflakes fluttering, I stood under the pavilion, reached out and took one, which fell in the palm of my hand and quickly melted.

couldn't help but sigh and said: "It's snowing at this time, the road is slippery in the snow, and the road back to Changying is not easy to walk." ”

Due to the snow, the Lin family's trip was one day later than originally scheduled, and on the day Lin Suwen left, the clouds disappeared and the snow disappeared, and the weather was clear.

I sent him to the pavilion in the middle of the lake on the outskirts of the city, when the snow in Shengjing had not yet melted, and the shore of the lake was covered in snow, except for an old man in a cloak sitting on a boat fishing.

Motionless, as if asleep.

I casually folded a withered willow branch and handed it to Lin Suwen, I wanted to say something else sour to send you a thousand miles away, but I thought about it, with our friendship, there was no need to be so polite.

When he came to the pass, he clenched his fist and stretched out to him: "Walk the horse and dust." ”

He lowered his eyes and looked at my hand, and also clenched his fist and touched my hand, and continued, "Life and death together." ”

That day, I watched his figure walk farther and farther, and his snow-white clothes quickly melted into the snow and ice.

Every year in the willow color, Baqiao hurts goodbye, every time I read such sour words in the past, I always feel very hypocritical, compared to the sentence "persuade the gentleman to drink more wine, there is no reason for the west out of Yangguan", I prefer "confidant in the sea, if the end of the world is next to each other", I think that people's lives are long enough, after a temporary parting, there will be a next reunion, there is no need to hurt anything.

But for the first time, I felt that the original farewell was so lost.

Perhaps, it is I who know in my heart that it is they who will last for a long time, and it is I who is destined to be short-lived.

I turned around and went back to the city, and wandered around the streets for a long time before returning to the Red Smell Museum.

Liu Bozhou said, Zheng Hongwen wanted to see me, but I didn't agree, for fear that he would block me in front of the house, so after thinking about it, I went to Qi Huanzhi's room to help him investigate his injuries.

Faintly, I heard Zheng Hongwen's voice outside.

As if knowing that I didn't want to see him, he didn't come in, but knelt outside the door and said goodbye to me.

Seeing that I didn't want to pay attention, Qi Huanzhi asked, "My lord, why don't you want to see him?" ”

Without waiting for me to speak, he smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, he also came to ask to see Xia Guan before, and Xia Guan didn't see him. ”

I groaned and asked, "Why?" ”

Qi Huanzhi's face was pale, due to the loss of cultivation, the whole person was a lot haggard, leaned on the soft pillow behind him, and said: "The lower official saved him, not to listen to his words of pleading or thanking, but just my own willing choice, now that the matter is over, what is the point of goodbye, it is better not to be good." ”

I smiled and said, "You know that's the reason, so why do you need to ask me?" Not to mention ......"

"He went astray and caused Shengjing to fall into danger, I didn't forgive him, I just thought he was pitiful and let him live, besides, it is not my credit that this matter can be won to the current situation, he wants to thank him, he should go to Xie Lin Gongzi."

"Young Master Lin?"

Qi Huanzhi was slightly surprised.

Thinking of Lin Suwen, who had just left today, I smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it, everyone is gone, don't mention him." ”

"What are your plans for the future?"

Facing my inquiry, Qi Huanzhi thought for a moment and said, "Now that the official cultivation is completely lost, naturally he can't stay in the Hongwen Pavilion anymore, and after the injury is healed, he will leave." ”

Hearing this, I was a little reluctant to say: "Even if you don't cultivate, if you stay in the pavilion, you can still do some other things, and our Hongwen Pavilion won't even be able to afford you alone." ”

Qi Huanzhi shook his head and smiled with relief: "My lord's kindness, Xia Guan has a heart, but in the early years, I wanted to explore the rivers and lakes and take a look around, but I was tired by my cultivation, and I never had a chance, but now that I have no cultivation, it is much easier, and I can do what Xia Guan has always wanted to do, but I don't have time to do it." ”

I said, "In this case, then I will not keep you." ”

Qi Huanzhi asked, "What are your plans in the future?" ”

"Me?"

I was slightly surprised, stood up and thought for a moment, and said: "People often say that this place of peace is my hometown, I like it very much, besides, my senior brother is also here, about ...... I'm going to stay here forever. ”

As he spoke, he turned back to him and smiled: "When the epiphany blooms next year, I will set up the wine in the hall, if you can remember this, you might as well come back and drink with everyone and enjoy the epiphany." ”
