Chapter XXIII: Confession of Guilt
"But now you're still a little annoying to know martial arts. Qianshui pretended to frown, then smiled, took out the amber bottle containing the dream scatter from his waist, and scrubbed it twice on his fingertips, seeing that the face of the madman was ugly, and his heart was a little happy.
Now no one dares to say no to me.
"So, I have to let you be wronged for a few days first, wait for Gu to bury him, and then ...... well"
"Don't touch me. The madman stared at Qianshui's hand that was about to touch his lips, Qianshui was stunned, his eyebrows were suddenly cold, he pinched the madman's chin and kissed it fiercely.
The crazy eyes glared at the boss, and he was so angry that his body trembled but he couldn't move, and he was about to bite him, but Qianshui let go of him as if he had a premonition, raised his eyebrows and licked the corners of his lips, and smiled, "This is just the beginning." Hmph, down the mountain, you will obediently beg to touch you. β
"Don't you think about it. The frenzy refused fiercely, but the tears still came out.
Qianshui looked at his tears happily, "Cry, Lone likes to see you cry." β
"You, how did you become like this!" The madman still couldn't believe that this was the Qianshui he knew.
Is it the transfiguration of people?
He couldn't help but glance at Wu Chuan on the bedβit's not impossible......
"What has become?" Qianshui sneered, "In the past, you were too stupid to be lonely, and you didn't know how to fight for it, otherwise, you would have been a lone person a long time ago!"
Stunned for a moment, this smile was clearly the appearance of Qianshui, but why did he say these words.
"You're wrong. The madman looked at him complicatedly, "No matter how many times I come again, what I love will only be the emperor." β
"Lone is the emperor now!"
"You know who I'm talking about. β
"That's enough!" Qianshui grabbed his chin, pried his mouth open, and fell straight down Dream Scatter, ruthlessly let go of his hand, and looked at him coldly, "You won't say these words in a few days!"
The madness took a breath and stopped his tears, "I won't betray the emperor for many days...... He is the only emperor of the northern kingdom in my heart. β
As he spoke, the madman closed his eyes, his head was confused, and he was unconscious.
Chisui caught his body and put him and Wu Chuan side by side on the bed, thinking about how to bring them back, and when he turned his eyes, he saw the box carrying clothes, but unfortunately this size was only enough for one......
His gaze swept over Wu Chuan and the face of the madman, and he almost didn't hesitate to clear his clothes and put the madness in it.
With this movement, a piece of silk paper suddenly fell out of the sleeve of the madman, and Qianshui was stunned and subconsciously picked it up.
"Heh, it turned out that I peeked at Lone's letter. Qianshui smiled, put the wounded madness in the box, sent the letter again, and added an extra sentence to it: "People leave a thousand graves, and the helmsman takes it himself."
-----
After the jade coffin was buried, the hundred officials mourned, and when they bowed their heads and bowed, they all looked dull, and some people assisted the emperor for fifteen years, the more this time, the more complicated the mood. On the one hand, he feels nostalgic for the past with the emperor, and on the other hand, he is worried about his own slim future.
Once a son of heaven and a courtier, it will finally be their turn.
After descending the Thousand Graves Mountain, everyone went home and waited for the morning pilgrimage of the next day.
Although the emperor is gone, the road of the northern kingdom will continue.
The political affairs that had been stagnant for several days had to be resolved one by one, and everyone was busy.
When Qianshui heard that Yuan Yuan had already gone down the mountain, he couldn't help but be glad that there was no such an eye-catching person with him, so he let the emperor get into his carriage and go back to the Northern Forbidden City with him. The box containing the madness was locked by him, and it was placed with other luggage and transported back to the palace.
He thought that as long as they reached the Northern Forbidden City, they would no longer be able to escape from the palm of their hands.
"A thousand waters. The emperor woke up from his dream again, only to find that the carriage had arrived in front of the Chenghuan Palace. Since his resurrection, he has been very sleepy.
"Hmm, Brother Wang, you're awake. Qianshui naturally held his arm, "It's just here, get out of the car." β
"You send them first. The emperor looked sideways at the curtain, revealing the backs of several attendants as the wind blew.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Qianshui smiled, hurriedly got out of the car, and excused everyone to break away.
The emperor was helped out of the carriage by Qianshui and entered the Chenghuan Palace.
The box containing the madness was placed at the foot of the Chenghuan Palace, near the bed.
"Brother Wang, are you still tired?" Qianshui helped him to the bed with concern.
The emperor sat down and rubbed his temples, "Well, I always feel like I haven't slept enough in the past two days." β
"Maybe you've just been resurrected, and you're not getting used to it for a while. Qianshui looked at the box and said.
"Hmm. The emperor bowed slightly, and his body was tired and leaning on the head of the bed, as if he might fall asleep at any time.
"Then Brother Wang, let's rest for a while. Qianshui wanted to help him, but he suddenly opened his eyes and stopped him.
The emperor shook his head, "No, there is always a bad premonition in my lonely heart, and I dream of madness and the northern kingdom when I sleep...... You have to do something to be sure. β
"Huh?"
"I'm afraid there are many lonely people lurking in this Northern Forbidden City. The emperor glanced around the Chenghuan Palace, but his eyes seemed to be looking farther through the palace.
"The emperor is ......"
"Well, if you don't get rid of these fine works for a day, you can't rest. The emperor rubbed the corners of his eyes to cheer himself up, but as soon as he let go, sleepiness hit him like a tide.
Qianshui's brows jumped, and his heart gradually became indifferent.
-----
"Yuan Yuan, are you really leaving?" Bai Shunyu asked as he looked at Yuan Yuan, who was watering the trees in the yard.
"Well, yes. He smiled slightly and continued to water the trees, "The king used to tell me that these trees are just like him, even if no one takes care of them, the heavens will give them sunshine and rain, and they can still live well." β
"Dollar ......"
"Hmm. Yuan turned his head and smiled at him, then desolately stroked the trunk of the tree in front of him, which was as thin as an arm, "But wouldn't they be better off if someone was willing to take care of them?"
With a slight trilling at the end, Bai Shunyu covered his mouth and didn't cry in the end.
He thought about handing over power to Yuan Yuan after he abdicated, but he didn't expect that before he could abdicate, the emperor would leave first.
It's hard to say whether the coin yuan can get into the eyes of the new emperor, just because the coin yuan has no intention of serving the two masters, and doesn't know how to please the new emperor, and even he, an outsider, can't see it, how can the new emperor continue to use him?
Even if he continues to use him for the sake of the king's face, this kind of time will not last long.
Therefore, I thought about persuasion, but a thousand words stopped in my throat and patted the shoulder of the coin yuan.
Holding back tears, the coin continued to irrigate.
Life has to go on.
He thought he would die in Lucheng, but he didn't want the emperor to appear there and rescue him from the tiger's mouth.
At first, I thought that I couldn't adapt to the life of the Northern Forbidden City, but I didn't want the emperor to commit to teaching, and gave me a heavy responsibility, giving myself the scenery of the past fifteen years.
Enough is enough, really enough.
Emperor, it's time for the coins to wait for you.
After watering the tree, Yuan Yuan carried his small luggageβtwo dark green burdensβto the Chenghuan Hall alone, to say goodbye to the new emperor.
-----
"I'll do that. "A thousand waters swept through the sunlight spots reflected on the ground, and a chill rose in my heart.
"A thousand waters. The emperor did not answer his words, and suddenly called.
Chisui looked up at him, "Huh?"
"You used to talk like you were lonely. The emperor said lightly.
Qian Shuiming saw the exhaustion in his eyes, and said with a smile, "Isn't it the same now." β
"It's different. The Emperor sighed.
Qianshui chuckled in his heart, but he didn't answer, his eyes stared at the foot of the bed, and sweat appeared on his forehead.
This man has obviously lost all his martial arts, why does he still make himself feel oppressed?
He's just scaring himself......
"It's just us now, and I'm just going to ask you one question. β
"Hmm. Qianshui was thinking about when to make a move, but just like these days, every time he thought of making a move, he hesitated.
"Can Lone still believe you?"
"Huh?" Qianshui looked up at him, but met his sharp gaze, and avoided it weakly, "Brother Wang asked what this is for, if I can't be trusted, who else can believe it." β
"That's right......" The emperor suddenly smiled, his voice sighing bitterly.
Qianshui didn't dare to answer, and the hall fell into boundless silence.
"So, what the hell is that. The emperor grabbed the bed, he didn't want to ask, but these questions haunted him, and he really couldn't sleep.
"What, what, why. Chisui took a step back in a panic, he didn't even realize his gaffe.
The emperor glanced at the place where he had retreated, and he suddenly woke up and was exposed.
He was uneasy, why, even when An Chu and the Wounded Maniac found out his identity, he was not so nervous, the emperor was just a waste who didn't know martial arts, why was he afraid of him?
"It seems to be true. The Emperor stared at him, "What the hell is going on in the Great Heaven." β
Sure enough, I asked.
Qianshui's pupils suddenly dilated, and the mask was torn off, so there was no need to disguise it anymore.
"Nothing. Qianshui turned around indifferently and turned his back to the emperor, "Now that you have found out, there is no need for me to act with you." β
"Acting with Gu?" the emperor looked at his back indifferently, "No, it's Gu who has been acting with you for many days." β
"What do you mean?" Qianshui turned to look at the emperor in surprise, and when he saw the glance in the emperor's eyes, he suddenly felt that maybe the other party was really cheating, and secretly felt that he had lost his confidence, "You found out earlier?"
The emperor stared at his eyes noncommittally, "Xiao Shui is a very sunny person. β
Qianshui was stunned for a moment, obviously the emperor was looking at himself and talking about himself, but he always felt that he was talking about another person.
"Since you came back, Lone hasn't seen half that look in your eyes again. β
"That's because Senxia died. Chisui also wanted to excuse himself. Obviously, his acting skills are so good that he can't even notice the madness, but he doesn't believe that the emperor can see it.
"Xiaoshui, you grew up alone. β
Rumble.
The place in Qianshui's heart suddenly fluctuated for a moment, but quickly disappeared into the darkness, and said coldly: "So what." yes, you found out, so why don't you expose me. I still dare to go to Ji Kang to die, and leave the northern kingdom to me. β
The emperor frowned, "At that time, Lone was just suspicious, thinking that he had thought too much. But in the two days of resurrection, Lone feels that there is something particularly strange, and when I think about it, it is connected with your eccentricity, and everything becomes reasonable. β
"What. Chisui wandered away from his gaze in a panic.
"Qianxia's fox tail was cut off, so it didn't disappear, right?" said the emperor who had guessed in his heart, breathing heavily, hoping that Qianshui would say something.
But I saw that the beads of sweat on Qianshui's forehead were fuller, and his lips were pale.
"Lone and you have made an agreement that he will not tell Qianxia for the rest of his life that he can leave the Red Mansion. But you're in default. Lone believed you at first because of madness, but the fox tail still had something about the thirteen princes of Ji Kang, and Lone inquired a lot when he was in Ji Kang. He even personally tried to mobilize Ji Kang's heaven and earth aura. β
β......β
"Ji Kang's aura is not so thin......"
β......β
"With the ability of a thousand times, you won't lose four lives to save people......"
β......β
"So ......"
"Say no more! I killed them!"
