At the turn of spring and summer, the mountains are verdant, and the emerald green and the mountains are undulating together, like a verdant silk hanging in the mountains. Ye Dushan stepped out of the chariot and slowly walked to a slightly open place, looking at the rolling mountains in the distance. He had already retreated left and right, and only Mu Changsheng was standing behind him with a knife.

"It is said that I was born on the way to the first emperor, who was standing here and wanted to give me the name of 'Mountains'. Ye Dushan's voice was a little erratic in the wind.

Mu Changsheng stood silently and did not answer.

"But you know, my name is 'Twilight Mountain,' and the twilight of the mountains is desolate and heavy, just like this crumbling dynasty. He was telling me that he had already given up, as if he felt that my generation, the Longyuan Dynasty, was coming to an end. But I didn't go with him!" Ye Dushan's eyes flashed, but they were like teardrops, "So I tried my best to prove to him that he was useless, not that the situation was incomprehensible." ”

"It's a pity that I was wrong, this game of chess, maybe I lost when I sat on the edge of the board. ”

Mu Changsheng looked up at Ye Dushan and saw that his expression was not unusual, but he suddenly changed his words.

"It is said that on the other side of the Yangfen Mountains is the uninhabited barren state. Every time I come here and look north, I wonder what the hell is like over there. Ye Dushan had a smile on his face, but his voice was a little melancholy.

Mu Changsheng didn't say anything, and Ye Dushan said to himself: "I just figured it out recently, this is because I have been trapped in this imperial city since I was a child, as if I have never been anywhere except for the people here and the scenery here, and I have never seen anything. Maybe it's because I've never seen it before that I'm so curious.

"If Your Majesty wants to leave the palace, the ministers should do their best to escort and ensure Your Majesty's thoroughness. Mu Changsheng's bland and somewhat wooden voice sounded.

Ye Dushan's face was gloomy, as if he hadn't heard it, and said: "I thought that after everything is settled, I want to go and see the East China Sea, which looks like the sailing ships sailing forward, and I want to see the Gobi Desert stretching for thousands of miles in Lizhou, as well as the perennial snow fields in the north, but I am worried about the miasma of the tide in the south. Now this southern realm has been mighty and has come back. It's a joke. ”

He laughed, like a whimper.

"Your Majesty......" Mu Changsheng didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say: "The minister will mobilize the forbidden army for His Majesty, and the generals will go out, there is always a glimmer of life." Your Majesty must not give up on your own!"

"I'm afraid it's too late. I thought that I would be able to rectify the waste of Ma Pingchuan's corpse vegetarian meal one day, but I didn't expect that the catastrophe of my Longyuan Ye clan would come so quickly......" Ye Dushan remembered the news that came in the morning: Ye Tian almost poured the power of Muzhou to the north, and had already broken through the Changyin Valley Pass, and drove towards Zhongzhou. In the east, Ye Hengqiu also led the remnants of Muzhou and settled in Fenggul Pass. The royal family, together with Zhongzhou, has been choked by King Pingnan of Muzhou.

"If the teacher is still here, it will not be here. Mu Changsheng suddenly spoke, with a rare excitement in his voice.

When Ye Dushan heard this title, he was stunned for a moment, and said with a light smile: "When the teacher is here, Ma Pingchuan and his ilk are still rampant, although he may defeat the enemy on the battlefield, but the situation has accumulated disadvantages for a long time, and the role that the teacher can play is really limited. ”

Mu Changsheng didn't know much about the affairs of the court, but he wanted to argue uncharacteristically, obviously the weight of this so-called teacher in his heart was extremely heavy, but Ye Dushan suddenly interrupted him and said, "I still have an errand to hand over to you." ”

"Your Majesty commands. Mu Changsheng hurriedly replied.

Ye Dushan didn't answer, he led the whole team back, and the eunuchs and palace maids he had sent away before hurriedly caught up. Mu Changsheng was puzzled, but he didn't bother to ask more questions before everyone, so he just quietly followed behind Ye Dushan.

Their location was on the northern outskirts of the imperial city, and Ye Dushan's chariot and entourage slowly walked towards the palace with him. As soon as he returned to the palace, Ye Dushan did not return to the palace, but led Mu Changsheng to the royal ancestral hall.

This place is dedicated to the successive emperors of the Longyuan Dynasty, and no one is allowed to enter except for the royal family and the little eunuch who is in charge of cleaning. But Ye Dushan ignored the opposition of his entourage, walked quickly into the royal ancestral hall, and let Mu Changsheng walk in with him, but the eunuchs and palace maids outside the door stopped outside the door and did not dare to enter.

Walk into the door, the aisle extends inward from the door, on both sides of the aisle is the tablet of the previous emperors, the incense in front of the tablet is not extinguished for a long time, and the light smoke is permeated in the ancestral hall. Ye Dushan stood at the door for a moment, and then walked quickly, Mu Changsheng followed behind him, and some eager footsteps sounded in the quiet ancestral hall.

The two of them walked all the way to the innermost, and after more than a dozen tablets, at the end of the aisle, it was no longer a tablet, but a pair of armor, which formed the approximate shape of a person through a bracket, and a wooden frame was used next to the armor, and a sword was placed flat. The armor and scabbard were covered with dust, and it was obvious that in the depths of the ancestral hall, few people came to worship and clean.

Ye Dushan didn't say a word, knelt down in front of the armor, kowtowed, and Mu Changsheng hurriedly followed him to bow down.

"This is the founding emperor of the Longyuan Dynasty, Ye Xiaoyuan's armor and sword. He asked that after his death, he would be left in the ancestral hall and his body would be buried in Pingyuguan, do you know why?" Ye Dushan said.

Mu Changsheng shook his head.

"The human heart, sometimes, is much filthy than you think......" Ye Dushan muttered.

He suddenly got up and grabbed the sword that had been lying on the wooden shelf. Mu Changsheng exclaimed in surprise and shouted, "Your Majesty!"

"He has fought countless battles in his life, and as soon as this sword comes out, the enemy will tremble!" Drawing the sword out of the sheath, Ye Dushan's voice suddenly had a lot of pride, as if when he waved this sword, the world was under control.

But he quickly calmed down, staring at the flickering cold light on the sword, and when he got closer, there was still a slight chill on the sword. He sighed, put the sword into the sheath, but suddenly handed it to Mu Changsheng.

Mu Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly knelt down again, saying, "The minister is panicked." "Don't dare to take the sword.

Ye Dushan's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I order you to carry this sword to fight your way out of the encirclement, even if you run around the world, you must find the survivors of the Wing Clan." The voice was filled with the majesty of an emperor.

Mu Changsheng's heart froze, expecting that Ye Dushan wanted to fight to the death and be ashamed of the previous assassination, but he heard him continue: "No matter what they are planning, try their best to assist the Wing Clan to return to the human field of vision and tell the world what happened back then." Until this matter is over, you are not allowed to die!" Ye Dushan said in a low voice, word by word.

"What happened back then?" Mu Changsheng looked up suspiciously, but saw that Ye Dushan had changed back to the middle-aged man he knew, and his majesty was no longer there. He suddenly remembered the biggest impression that the courtiers had of Ye Dushan: moody. You never know if his next sentence will be a thunderous rage or a gentle drizzle, like two very different people who appear and disappear from time to time: an angry king, and a lazy middle-aged man.

I saw that Ye Dushan shook his head a little weakly, and lowered the arm that had been raising his sword before, completely lacking the majesty of the order just now. Mu Changsheng hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

"This is what I have prepared for a long time, there are some things, I don't want to say any more, you can see for yourself. Ye Dushan took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to Mu Changsheng, and then put the sword in his hand as well.

Mu Changsheng was at a loss for a while, and subconsciously took the two things in Ye Dushan's hand, but he didn't dare to move, and he didn't know where to start. The moment he touched the sword, he felt a chill in his tentacles. He recognized that it was a spirit blade forged from the Iron of the East Sea, and it was of extraordinary material.

"This sword is called 'Mao Xin'. Remember?" Ye Dushan asked.

"I remember. Mu Changsheng replied.

Ye Dushan seemed to think of something again, and said: "And the teacher, you don't believe that he has gone, and you will follow him if you want to find him." If you find him, remember...... I remember to tell him what happened to me, but there are many lessons he left behind, and I am afraid that I have almost violated them. ”

Mu Changsheng was speechless for a while, so he had to nod heavily and replied, "Yes!"

"Then get out of here. The letter has my seal of the Son of Heaven on it, and the defenders dare not stop you on the way out of the palace. Ye Dushan waved his hand lightly, motioning for Mu Changsheng to retreat. Mu Changsheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are terrified, and they dare not flee alone, and they are willing to lead the forbidden army to escort Your Majesty out of the encirclement!"

Ye Dushan shook his head and said, "It's enough for you to do this alone, if I don't see it, there will be chaos in the middle of the court, and Ye Tian will also get the news and strengthen his vigilance, so no one can leave." And, I ...... I can't let my ancestors down and abandon their country when they are facing the enemy. The rebels are besieging the city, this is bad luck, it's not that I'm incompetent!"

Mu Changsheng was silent for a moment and fell to his knees. The two were speechless for a moment. After a while, he stood up and walked out quickly, and halfway through, he suddenly said, "If the teacher is here, I don't want to see Your Majesty tied up." ”

"I didn't say I was going to tie my hands down, do you think I just said my last words? Ye Dushan said with a smile.

Mu Changsheng didn't speak anymore and walked out quickly. In the royal ancestral hall, only Ye Dushan was left, he smiled a little tiredly, and then squatted on the ground casually.
