Liu Heng was silent.

Every time, it's like that. Qin Xufei always respected his opinion, but once that person became stubborn, he never once could really stop him and change him.

No matter how unwilling he was, he couldn't stop him. From the moment he walked into the palace, everything could no longer be decided by himself.

Qin Xufei looked at him calmly: "Ah Heng, you don't have to think too much. ”

Liu Heng shook his head bitterly, and finally gave up the senseless persuasion: "I'll go with you." ”

Qin Xufei nodded and walked side by side with him. The guards around him, whether they heard the whispered conversation between the two or not, followed behind with expressionless faces. Only Liu Yuntao was left, looking at the backs of the two people in front of him in amazement.

Crazy, all crazy! What is the reason for this kind of thing to have to be done by the new emperor himself? I'd rather be known than seen, even if everyone in the world understands what's going on, but as long as it's not that person who does it himself, he can always shirk it.

As the emperor, if you want to sit firmly in that position, it must be unattainable and unattainable. The new emperor should be a hero of great benevolence and righteousness, a savior to protect the country and the people, a loyal courtier and a royal brother, because the country was ruined, the monarch died in the chaos, and in desperation, he ascended the throne at the invitation of the people of the world. This is the watertight, stable as Mount Tai.

How can you act so willfully, leaving a stain, leaving a handle, leaving an ignorant people, when they are dissatisfied, they can use the topic to play and insult the king and slander the king in the middle of street discussions?

I really want to talk about it. What is the point of him protecting Liu Heng like this. Ah Heng has killed enough people, whether it is infamy or public anger, he has already provoked himself, and it is already impossible to escape him. Those literati and Confucian scholars, righteous and clear streams, scolded and pursued him.

If this is a crime, it must be added to one person, and it must be added to the son of himself, an old courtier. On Liu Heng, who was already full of blood, the price was the lowest.

Liu Yuntao shook his head.

With this kind of reasoning, he would never catch up and try to talk to Qin Xufei. For the Liu family, such a result is of course better.

It's just that. After all, there is still a little emotion in my heart. He served two generations of the first emperors, and he could always be considerate of his mind, but now, he will not be able to keep up with the changes in front of him.

Outside the Zichen Palace, the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom surrounded three or four times, and when they saw their large group of men and horses coming, they immediately saluted and retreated without saying a word.

After the Yan people were gone, Qin Xu Feifang looked at the gate of Zichen Hall in a daze. He said in a low voice: "Ah Heng, there are some words. I need to speak to him individually. ”

Liu Heng did not speak.

"I also have something I want to ask his sons."

Liu Heng frowned.

"Ah Heng, trust me."

Liu Heng finally sighed: "You be careful." ”

Qin Xufei nodded, walked step by step to the gate of Zichen Palace, and stood in front of the door. He hesitated. Fang reached out and pushed the door open.

In the main hall, there was just silence. Only the dim candlelight, flickering from the doorway, was faintly reflected in the window.

Qin Xufei walked in with heavy steps.

Then, with his backhand, he closed the door of the temple heavily.

In the night wind, hundreds of soldiers stood quietly in the garden, but they were so quiet that they could not even hear the sound of breathing.

Therefore the screams, the exclamations, the cries, the pleadings, which came suddenly from the temple, became clearer and more piercing.

And a high-pitched, frenzied, fierce and angry voice suddenly rose up, and in the blink of an eye suppressed all the voices. 、

"I know you look down on me! You think you're a big hero, a big hero! Are you above board, are you frank? Hahahaha! You don't have to be complacent! It's not so easy to sit in this seat! ”

The crazy voice suddenly fell low, eerie, as if it were a curse from hell:

"In a few years, you will become my ......"

Liu Heng frowned, waved his hand, and the guards immediately quickly withdrew from the garden.

Although these people are absolutely trustworthy subordinates who have lived and died together for many years, although everyone knows what they are going to do tonight, and everyone has made a blood oath that they will never leak a word to the outside world, but these words, can be listened to one less, or one less sentence.

Everyone retreated, and Liu Heng himself slowly walked to the gate of the garden, looking back at the dark and cold hall, but he didn't take a step back after all.

Outside the garden gate, Liu Yuntao, who was following from afar, frowned and shouted, "Ah Heng! ”

Now, he worries about his son.

This son who used to be always against him, now, by mistake, is already tied to the glorious future of the entire family, and there is no room for mistakes. However, this son, after so many years of ups and downs, is still the same stubborn and unwise.

That man was his friend, but he was also his lord. No matter what sound came from inside now, he should stay away, and it was best and safest not to hear a word.

However, Liu Heng just smiled at his father, turned around and walked closer to the main hall for more than a dozen steps.

The distance is still far enough. As long as he doesn't concentrate on listening, as long as the people inside are not straightening their throats and hysterical, he can't hear much.

He just didn't feel at ease, he just wanted to be closer to his local friends.

Occasionally, in the night breeze, there are still a few crazy screams looming in the ears.

"Come on, come and cut me with a thousand knives, and get rid of your evil anger for so many years! What are you still doing there? ”

"Third uncle, spare me, spare my nephew, I don't know anything, I'm sorry for your affairs, it's all my father, no, it's that old thing......"

"Your Highness......"

"Lord..."Uncle Huang......"

"The Emperor's ......"

"Please, spare my child......"

The chaotic screams, chaotic crying, chaotic pleading, especially the helpless cries of the women, made Liu Heng's heart feel like a boulder.

Xu Fei, why do you bother. Why bother to force yourself to face such an ugly scene, why bother to let yourself see with your own eyes, listen with your own ears, and then strangle the lives of those ones with your own hands, and then, your whole life will be tormented by this night.

How many innocent people were there in that dark and dreary hall.

King Qin, and the princes and princes who fought for the throne and lured wolves into the house, as well as his sons, maybe damned.

But what about those ordinary concubines? What about the ordinary concubines who were just involuntarily, taken captive and selected, purely for those people to vent their animal desires? Ronghua power has not enjoyed much, but they can't escape this fateful killing.

And the children who were so young that they had never done anything, who knew nothing, who had no sin except to be in the royal family......

Why bother. Why bother to force yourself to face these cruelties and coldness.

Liu Heng stood quietly in the cold wind alone, looking deeply at the bleak palace.

He came to protect him.

He came to make himself an emperor.

Use reality to take the initiative to erase the last bit of weakness and innocence in your heart.

People have to change after all. Even if you don't want to, the world will force people to change little by little.

That friend with sincere eyes and a warm smile will also become a mature and calm emperor.

Isn't this what these subordinates have been looking forward to?

It should be joyful, it should be gratifying, but why, at this moment, he only felt a sharp pain in his chest.

This night, Qin Xufei stayed in the Zichen Hall for a long, long time.

When he came out, behind him, in the Zichen Palace, the messy, miserable, begging voices had all fallen silent.

Qin Xufei's face was slightly pale.

Liu Heng approached quickly, looking at him with worried eyes, but did not speak.

Qin Xufei tried to smile at him a little bleakly, and the corners of his mouth and eyes were trembling slightly.

"Ah Heng, there is something, I ask you to help me."

Liu Heng frowned and sighed in his heart.

This person...... Is it ...... You can't be ruthless to the end.
