Chapter 156: Another Old Man Passes Away

Zhou Wenyu looked at the old man's back, his lips moved, but he didn't speak again after all.

He is a scholar, he sighed when he saw the depressed appearance of the old man, and it was natural for him to have some love for the people in the world.

It is impossible to make Zhou Wenyu do what he doesn't want to do just because of an impulse.

So he just bowed three times to the carriage where the old man had left, and then turned around and entered the palace.

It's too tiring to be an emperor or something.

What's more, is there only one way to be an emperor for the benefit of the common people in the world?

Zhou Wenyu shook his head, gathered his clothes, the night darkened, and he quickened his pace.

......

Yan Ruoyu sat upright in the carriage, his eyes did not squint, his back was straight, and he had no intention of relaxing.

He has been sitting like this for decades, and as long as he doesn't sleep, he will always be so meticulous.

He stared ahead, his gaze obscured by the chariot curtain, but his eyes were as deep as the stars, and through the thin curtain shot into the darkness, to the future and beyond.

The Prime Minister's Mansion was not far from the Imperial Palace, the lights were bright, the house was full of people, and the sobs of some women were faintly heard.

Yan Ruoyu's holy decree of resignation had been sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion one step ahead of him, and Emperor Jingwu gave Yan Ruoyu enough face, and the reward for resignation filled the entire hall, gold and silver, cloth, pearls, and even a token...... This token is for Yan Ruoyu to enjoy his old age, after all, there are not a few people who have offended him for decades as an official, and if he recognizes that he wants to harm him while he resigns, he can take out this token.

This token can be regarded as a status symbol, even if Yan Ruoyu is not in the court, the hundreds of officials in the court will not be able to use the official authority to suppress him in the slightest.

However, when Yan Ruoyu walked through the lobby, his eyes did not stop at these jeweled things for even a second, his steps were steady, his pace was like the wind, and he went straight into the backyard.

Pushing open the door of the study and stepping in, Yan Ruoyu ordered that no one should be allowed to approach the study, and everyone was sent to pack up their things and leave Beijing early tomorrow morning.

The old man sat down at the table, spreading out a piece of rice paper in front of him, he leaned back slightly, reached out to take the brush, and hesitated.

The bright light flickered slightly, and the old man's brow furrowed deeper and deeper.

The scolding of the housekeeper outside the house was always remembered, and the old man tilted his head slightly, looking at the scene in the house through the window, and for a while, decades of ups and downs gradually came to his heart.

"Now that you have nothing to do with Zhou Ruiwu, don't you still want to help me?" Suddenly, a voice came from the shadow of the study, this voice seemed familiar, but it was a little hoarse and I couldn't tell who it was.

Yan Ruoyu didn't seem surprised by this voice, withdrew his gaze, and did not look at the black shadow, but fell on the snow-white rice paper in front of him, and asked instead of answering: "If the old man didn't guess wrong, all this is your handwriting, right?"

The black shadow was not annoyed after being exposed, and said coldly: "If you were willing to help me from the beginning, I don't need to do so. ”

Yan Ruoyu sighed and said, "When is the time for retribution." ”

"Hmph! I'm just doing the right thing for heaven! Zhou Ruiwu took something that didn't belong to him, shouldn't he return it?"

Yan Ruoyu pursed her dry lips and didn't speak.

The black shadow said again: "You are the prime minister of the dynasty, and your strength is also unfathomable, as long as you are willing to help me, why should Zhou Ruiwu be afraid?"

Yan Ruoyu said: "Don't you see that the national strength of the Eastern Zhou Kingdom has been thriving in the past sixteen years? He may not be a good person, but he is a good emperor. ”

"Shut up!" the dark shadow shouted angrily, "So what? if it's not his, he shouldn't touch it! I haven't forgotten Raven's hatred for a moment!"

"So you shook out the final exam favoritism, others only said that your goal is Mingda, but no one can guess that your real goal is me, you have to pull the old man into the water, force the old man to leave Chang'an, and make way for your big business. ”

The black shadow smiled coldly and said, "Yes, Yan Ruoyu, you were also loyal to Raven back then, why do you recognize a thief as a king now?!"

Yan Ruoyu shook his head and said, "The people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light." Everything the old man did was just to keep the Eastern Zhou community and let the people live and work in peace and contentment, so why should there be more wars?"

"Coward!" the black shadow waved his hand and shouted, "You have been mentally absorbed by that thief, and I ask you one last time, do you really want to help me?"

"With the chaos of war, it is inevitable that the people will be displaced, and the other three countries are still eyeing each other, do you really want to go your own way?" Yan Ruoyu asked rhetorically.

"Not bad!"

Yan Ruoyu was silent, and after a while, he said slowly: "Don't forget...... When the war is raging, your identity will always be revealed, and at that time, you still have a chance to win?"

"It's not a matter of worrying about the prime minister. ”

"Well, you've made up your mind?"

"I've made up my mind!"

"Well, although the old man can't help you, he won't stop you anymore. Yan Ruoyu said, two rays of light suddenly burst out from his eyes, and the divine power around his body was immense, who would have thought that this withered old man would have such a powerful power in his body!

Yan Ruoyu flipped his palm violently and slapped it on his forehead!

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the Heavenly Spirit Cover shattered, the divine power scattered, and the vitality passed.

The black shadow was obviously taken aback, and involuntarily took a step forward and said, "You...... You ......"

Yan Ruoyu still had a breath left, he lowered his head, panted slightly, and said: "If I don't stop you, I will be disloyal to Emperor Jingwu, but if I stop you, I am sorry for Emperor Jingwu who knew the grace of the encounter back then, since you have made up your mind, the old man can't survive in the world no matter what." ”

The shadow was silent.

"You go...... Yan Ruo was as foolish as a gossamer, "no matter what the outcome is, remember to keep the country." ”

After saying this, the prime minister of the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, who had been in power for decades, closed the eyes that had scared away the enemies of the Quartet.

......

Later in the evening, the Prime Minister's Mansion found Yan Ruoyu's body, and for a while he wailed all over the field and cried.

Emperor Jingwu learned the news in the middle of the night, hurried to the Prime Minister's Mansion, looked at Yan Ruoyu's corpse, and pondered silently.

He ordered Yan Ruoyu to be buried thickly, and did not take back the token, and personally sent everyone from the Yingshen Mansion to escort the Yan family back to their hometown in Shanxi.

Zhou Wenyu didn't come, but he also got the news, the third prince who didn't ask about the court, sat in front of the window and looked at the endless dark sky, and sat alone until dawn.

Zhang Yanyun, who was in the adjudication office, didn't know what was happening in Chang'an City, let alone notice that the monstrous storm had enveloped the country.

He seemed to be isolated from the world, and he was sitting cross-legged in front of the bed at the moment, with divine power gushing in his body, and his whole person had undergone incredible changes.

Green light shrouded him, and his dantian qi sea seemed to set off stormy waves, divine thunder rolling, and tsunami bursts.

The idol of the Son of the Forest manifested behind him, and he reached the critical moment of breakthrough.

The Eastern Zhou Kingdom also reached a critical moment.

In the blink of an eye, four years have passed.
