Say. Gongzi Cheng lowered his eyes and looked at the Tsing Yi Wei, his tone was extremely light, and his eyes were cold.

"Qiu Ji has long been attached to the Empress Dowager of Liang, the border city of the people spread the message that Qiu Ji first entered the border city, once said that there is the will of the Queen Mother, and then learned that the king is married, so he hurried over, escorting her is the door of the border city lord, and when she returns, she was intercepted and killed halfway. ”

It turned out that she climbed up to the Empress Dowager Liang again. Gongzi Cheng snorted coldly and said in a deep voice. "Go and look at Luo Hongxuan, if someone colludes with her, she will be detained and interrogated!"

"Yes!" the Tsing Yi guard replied with his hand. "Your Majesty, Wu Ji has news, a month ago, someone saw him refining medicine in Jiulu Mountain, and his subordinates have sent someone to investigate, and they will know if it is true tomorrow. ”

"Well, be sure to verify the places he passed through when he went to Jiulu Mountain and report them one by one. Gongzicheng frowned slightly, and said lightly. "If you get the news of Wu Ji, whenever you go, report it to me. ”

"Yes!" the Tsing Yi guard bowed and turned and strode away.

Gongzicheng's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the purple chrysanthemum field in front of him, his dark eyes were so cold that there was no trace of temperature.

After a long while, Gongzi Cheng raised his eyes to look at the blue sky, his dark robe swung up, like a black cloud surging, he turned around, and walked slowly back to the hall.

The hall was as quiet as promised, Gongzi Cheng deliberately lightened his steps, and when he arrived at the big couch, he looked at Yongyi and Ah Fu, who were already asleep next to Ye Ziyi, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, took off his robe and covered his two sons.

Turning around and sitting at the end of the couch, Gongzicheng's face was a little solemn, he turned his head sideways to look at Ye Ziyi, who was breathing thinly, and his eyes were full of pain.

As soon as the robe on the couch moved, Ah Fu opened his dark eyes and came out from under the robe, he carefully covered Gongzicheng's robe for Yongyi, moved lightly to Gongzicheng and knelt down, bowed his head and spoke.

"Father. ”

"Let's go out and talk. ”

Gongzi Cheng stood up and walked slowly outside the hall, Ah Fu looked at Gongzi Cheng's lonely back, his eyes flashed, and he climbed down to put on his shoes.

Walking lightly to the head of the couch, Ah Fu carefully picked up the round white jade box placed next to Ye Ziyi's soft pillow, looked at his mother, who was still sleeping, he held the jade box in both hands, and strode out of the dormitory.

Stepping out of the door of the dormitory, Ah Fu looked at Gongzi Cheng who was standing in front of Kikuta, and somehow, his throat was a little choked.

Under the autumn sky, on the edge of the goose topaz purple flower field, the figure of Gongzi Cheng Xuanxi looks extremely lonely and cold, his figure is so upright, so slender, it makes people feel that he is so prominent everywhere, but it is out of place, even this late autumn beauty can not melt into his surroundings, he seems to be born with loneliness, and can no longer blend into any scenery.

Lowering his head and stepping down the stone steps to Gongzicheng's side, Ah Fu handed over the jade box in his hand and said respectfully. "Father, the child brought life-prolonging medicine for his mother, and asked his father to take medicine for his mother in the future. ”

"This is the magic medicine of the Longjiang Wu Clan?" Gongzi Cheng took the white jade box, looked at the round box without any decoration, and said lightly. "How do you keep your mother alive?"

"This medicine is made by Longjiang Dawu, when taking it, it needs to be strong and strong men's middle finger blood is harmonious, pierce the fingertips with a gold needle, take blood like beans, and take the medicine, one dose a day, you can not die. It's just that the blood of the middle finger connects the heart veins to prolong the life of the mother, and it will also damage the yang life of the person who takes the blood. ”

Ah Fu said very seriously, he raised his eyes and looked at Gongzicheng, as if he was waiting for him to speak, but he also seemed to want to wait for an answer.

Gongzi Cheng pinched the jade box, stroked the warm box with his thumb, and said lightly. "How much of this medicine should be taken at one time? Are there any contraindications?"

As for the taboo, it is necessary to abstain from sexual immorality, nourish the body and mind, and take the medicine to restrain the seven emotions and six desires. Ah Fu paused and became enlightened to his son. "Father, my mother is weak, Yongyi is young, if my father continues my mother's life, I can't refine my own medicine, if my father has an accident, Yongyi is too naïve, it's difficult to be a country, I can't leave Nanshao, my father still has to think about Yongyi. ”

"Ah Fu. Gongzi Cheng's big palm fell on Ah Fu's shoulder, he smiled faintly, looked at Ah Fu and said softly. "Your mother is my wife, as a husband, how can I allow others to be contaminated? ”

"I will be the lord of Nanshao in the future, and Yongyi will be the king of Daqi, and it has nothing to do with it! Father! How can you be so persistent? It's just to take blood, and slaves are enough, so why does my father have to fight for his life? Father can know that if my mother lives and I don't have my father, how can she be happy?" Ah Fu was a little angry, he stared at Gongzi Cheng tightly, and seeing that he was indifferent, he simply knelt down and said. "Please think twice, father!"

"Ah Fu, where the love goes, I can't help myself, I just go with my heart, you don't understand, if one day you also meet such a woman, you will know. Gongzi Cheng squatted in front of Ah Fu, stretched out his hand to help him, and patted the dust off his body. "Ah Fu, so that you can help your brother, if you die first for your father, take care of your mother. ”

"Father......" Ah Fu had tears in his eyes, seeing that Gongzi Cheng was speechless, his lips moved, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Gongzi Cheng dressed Ah Fu and said softly. "You go to Longjiang to ask for divination, is there a conclusion?"

"Longjiang Dawu asked the gods for his mother, saying that his mother was not in the place where the gods could see, and it was difficult to say good or bad, he said...... It is said that the mother is not a person here, and she suffers here because of the marriage in the world, and the love will naturally return, and no one can stay. Ah Fu frowned, very worried. "This witch can't say it in detail, I can't understand it all, father, this worldly marriage, but do you talk about the relationship between you and your mother?"

"I don't know, this matter is too mysterious, so don't speculate, Ah Fu, I've worked hard for you this time, go and rest. Gongzi Cheng pressed his big hand on Ah Fu's shoulder, stood up and said. "Leave this to the Father, go. ”

Ah Fu hesitated for a while, he stood in place and looked at Gongzi Cheng, and said in a low voice. "Father, Ah Fu has something unclear, and I hope that my father will tell the child. ”

"What's the matter? Gongzi Cheng lowered his eyes and looked at Ah Funa's dark and bright eyes that were exactly the same as Ye Ziyi, and his eyes were extremely gentle.

"Father, since you have such a deep affection for your mother, why didn't you take the world one day earlier?

Looking at Ah Fu's stubborn eyes, Gongzi Cheng smiled faintly and looked at the floating clouds in the blue sky.

"Ah Fu, in this world, there are some things that can be divided by the word 'right and wrong'. At that time, I still had hope for family affection, underestimating the evil of human nature, so that your mother had this catastrophe of life and death, these five years, I abandoned the seven feelings, and fought to get today's status, if not, I would never have met your mother. ”

"Why? Mother, as the lord of Nanshao, changed her name and surname, and the Jing clan was almost wiped out, what else did my father care about?" Ah Fu took a step forward and looked up at Gongzi's enlightenment. "Back then, my father was the king of Qi, and he was respected and powerful, so he was not afraid of traitors. ”

"Ah Fu, I want to stay with your mother for a long time, but her body is so weak, I have to fight everywhere, how can I rest assured that she is alone in the palace? I can't take her with the army, and I can't make her the target of the public in the palace. Gongzi Cheng paused and said with a smile. "Now that I have cleared the traitors in the palace and mastered the overall situation of the world, I can't imagine that it is finally a step too late. ”

"In this way, is my father afraid that someone will find out my mother's identity?" Ah Fu frowned, and his eyes changed a little when he looked at Gongzicheng.

"Yes. Your mother is not only familiar with the "Jing Gong Secret", she is also the only person in the world who knows the whereabouts of King Qin's treasure, that is, she is not a secret, and this alone is enough to put her in danger. ”

"King Qin's treasure?" Ah Fu opened his eyes wide, and he was very surprised. "Does that treasure really exist?"

"Really. Gongzi Cheng stroked the silly hair on Ah Fu's head and said in a low voice. "Because of this, I can't take your mother and son back to the court, and I can't reveal your mother's identity, to protect her, I have to be a strong person in this world to protect her. ”

"I see. Ah Fu nodded, pursed his lips and said. "I see. Father, I forgive you. ”

"Forgive?" Childe Cheng smiled and rubbed his hair. "You still hate me?"

"That's natural, my father is tired of my mother's suffering, how can I not hold a grudge? That day, my mother went out of the beam in the rain, and my mother cried all the way, I don't know how many tears she shed, and at that time she almost died because of her father, and the child naturally remembered her hatred. Ah Fu said eloquently, but it made Gongzicheng speechless.

"If so, hate and hate. The corners of Gongzicheng's lips lifted and patted Ah Fu's backlash. "Now that you don't hold a grudge against me, you will remember your father's words, and in the future, you and Yongyi will support each other and take good care of your mother. ”

"My father's wife, my father took care of me, and I am also a man, and when I grow up, I also have a woman, and I am unable to take care of the wives of others. Ah Fu puffed out his cheeks, very dissatisfied. "Mother told me to take care of my father, father asked me to take care of my mother, I am only a child of less than ten years old, who will take care of me?

Ah Fu turned around angrily and babbled about the truth. "Hmph! What kind of sin have I done, I have such parents? It's really annoying! I shouldn't have let the news out, and I caused so much trouble, hmph! It's annoying......

Seeing Ah Fu shaking his head and leaving angrily, Gongzi Cheng couldn't help but laugh out loud, watching his son turn out of the courtyard gate, he lowered his head and looked at the jade box in his hand.

The jade box containing the medicine was made of fine white jade, which was extremely finely polished and warm to the touch, and Gongzicheng twisted the lid of the box lightly and opened it.

The box was more than an inch deep, and it contained a blue ointment, which was soaked in grease, and a faint light was reflected in the sunny sun, and the thick smell of medicine wafted out, choking Gongzi's eyes with slight pain, and he closed the lid of the box with a bang.

Pinching the jade box, Gongzicheng's eyes flashed a few times, he looked up at the dormitory not far away, and walked back towards the gate after a while.

The autumn wind stirred the veil in the hall, only bringing the slight coolness of the autumn to the tent in the outer hall and disappearing, Gongzicheng strolled into the hall, tucked the quilt corners for Yongyi and Ye Ziyi, and lay sideways on the edge of the big couch, looking at the sleeping Ye Ziyi's lips lightly.

Carefully brushing away the broken hair on her face, Gongzicheng put the jade box behind the soft pillow, he pillowed his arm sideways, looked at Ye Ziyi's peaceful sleeping face, smiled and closed his eyes.

The hall was silent again, except for the sound of the three members of the family, there was no sound.
