Chapter 52: The Dust Settles

The emperor's expression was very sad, and he seemed to be very reluctant to deal with his son like this, but the law is not merciful, and if he does something wrong, he should be punished, but the price of this punishment is sometimes a bit heavy.

After about half an hour, the emperor regained his former prestige and continued: "Mu Jingyuan has meritorious service in escorting, and he is outstanding in his talents, and he is crowned as the crown prince and presides over the government on my behalf. ”

Mu Jingyuan was very happy when he heard that he was finally crowned the crown prince, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to thank him, but the emperor's next words swept away his previous joy.

"The three princes have made meritorious contributions to saving the car and restoring the throne of King Ning, and the title will last forever from now on. ”

Then the emperor returned to the dragon bed, and gently touched a very small switch at the corner of the bed, and a small dark grid appeared on the head of the dragon bed, and in the grid was a piece of talisman. This talisman was originally owned by Wang Guifei's elder brother, General Wang Ping, and was later captured by the emperor and has remained in the emperor's hands. With this talisman, you can dispatch all the troops of the country at will.

The emperor carefully took out the talisman, walked to Mu Xize's side, and handed the talisman to Mu Xize with his own hands.

"This can send all the troops who have left the country, and now it will be handed over to you for safekeeping, you don't want to disappoint me!" When the talisman was forcibly stuffed into Mu Xize's hand, the emperor finally showed a relieved smile.

Since King Duan was captured by Mu Jingyuan's people, Mu Xize, who was still very terrifying, was leaning on the door frame of the dormitory as if he had suddenly lost his strength, unable to move at all, his face was white and blue, and his body seemed to be trembling slightly.

Even if he was already weakened to such a point, when the talisman entered Mu Xize's hand, he still tried his best to shake it off and threw the talisman in his hand far away.

The emperor was not angry, he personally picked up the talisman again, stuffed it into Mu Xize's hand again, and then said: "You have to have a little power in your hands to protect the people you want to protect from harm, I think this talisman is still very useful to you." ”

Hearing the emperor say this, Mu Xize did not shirk, but his face showed great reluctance, and it took a lot of effort to finally speak: "Can I go back to the house to rest first?"

Ye Ningxiang thought that he would say something high-minded, but he didn't expect that he just wanted to go back and rest, wasn't he very majestic just now, so fast, it is estimated that even a master like Qin Xiao is difficult to beat, how could he suddenly be weak like this at this moment, it is unbelievable.

After speaking, Mu Xize didn't wait for the emperor to reply, took Ye Ningxiang's hand and walked towards the outside of Zhaoyang Palace.

The emperor looked at Mu Xize's departing back, and he was very lonely. Others don't know, but he knows best, in order to protect himself and his subordinates from harm, he deliberately urged the demon power in his body, and tried his best to catch Mu Jinghong. However, he had already lost his heart and forcibly resisted the power of the Bone Eater Nail, and now he was afraid that his body would be unable to hold on.

Ye Ningxiang held Mu Xize's hand to know how bad his body was now, that hand was as cold as ice, and he felt that his body was cold after holding it for a moment. Ye Ningxiang felt that although the hand was clenching her hand hard, she could clearly feel that the hand holding her was trembling faintly.

Not only that, but his whole body seemed to be trembling faintly, but he couldn't be noticed because he kept moving fast.

When she saw Mu Xize's cruel face before, Ye Ningxiang was still thinking about killing him, but at this moment, seeing that he was suffering a lot of pain, very pitiful, Ye Ningxiang was ruthless again, not only ruthless, but she was also unconsciously worried about him.

"How are you? It's hard, isn't it?"

Mu Xize smiled, and his steps slowed down, "No, I just don't want to stay there anymore and just make excuses." Xiao Yezi, you really take me to heart!"

Hey, it seems that I am worried about myself again, when can I be ruthless? Whenever I encounter something about Mu Xize, Ye Ningxiang, who was very rational a moment ago, will instantly lose all her judgment, and will unconsciously care about him, and even feel sad for him.

Maybe she still loves him, even if he ruined her family, even if she vowed to make him pay for his blood debts and pay the price, but the heartbeat feeling can't be hidden, no matter how long it takes, no matter what she becomes, her heart is still firmly imprisoned by him.

Because she loves him too much, that's why she hates like this, and there is a thin line between love and hate, so does she love or hate him?

In the carriage, Mu Xize naturally snuggled gently in Ye Ningxiang's arms, his eyes were closed, and he didn't speak, as if a person who hadn't rested for a long time suddenly found a harbor to rest, very comfortable and very peaceful.

"What kind of disease do you have, and why does it seem so serious?" Ye Ningxiang couldn't help the question in her heart and asked.

Mu Xize lazily clenched Ye Ningxiang's arm, leaned into Ye Ningxiang's arms again, and then said: "It's a very rare disease, but it won't kill people, you can rest assured." ”

Ye Ningxiang stepped back a little embarrassed, her face was unconsciously red and hot, and she smiled a little unnaturally and said, "That's good, that's good." ”

But as soon as Ye Ningxiang finished speaking, she noticed that Mu Xize seemed to be a little wrong, and then she only heard Mu Xize suddenly cough violently, it was a very violent cough, as if her lungs had been kneaded, and her originally pale face was also a little flushed because of the dry cough.

Ye Ningxiang patted Mu Xize's back and asked with some concern, "What's the matter, was it okay just now?"

Mu Xize looked at Ye Ningxiang with a smile, as if he was very happy because of Ye Ningxiang's concern for him. Suddenly, the smile froze on his face, and without warning, a large mouthful of blood spat out of his mouth, and the blood sprayed onto the side wall of the carriage, and then onto Ye Ningxiang's jet-black clothes.

At this time, Mu Xize looked like he was about to die, his whole body was paralyzed and unsupported, his eyes were blurred, he seemed to be unconscious, and blood kept gushing out of his mouth.

"Xi Ze, Xi Ze, don't, don't have anything!" Seeing that Mu Xize was suddenly on the verge of dying, Ye Ningxiang hugged Mu Xize tightly, and kept wiping Mu Xize's gushing blood with her sleeve.

She wept bitterly, uncontrollably, he was her enemy, her enemy who should have been stabbed, but when something really happened to him, her heart ached as if it were broken and exploded. Although she thought about his death ten thousand times in her heart, when death really came to him, she was so reluctant and so nostalgic.

Ye Ningxiang's hands held Mu Xize's cheeks, anxiety and panic overwhelmed her, tears and Mu Xize's blood mixed on her face, making her look very embarrassed. She was wrong, she thought she could be ruthless and unjust, but in the end she couldn't control her heart, she was defeated, she thought she could take every step of the way, but in the end she couldn't kill him.

The man in front of her, the man she has loved all her life, was her robbery in her previous life, and this life is also her robbery, and she can't escape from the palm of his hand in this life.

At this time, Mu Xize stretched out his hands with difficulty, gently wiped away the tears and blood stains on Ye Ningxiang's face, and there was still a smile on his mouth, but two lines of warm tears flowed from the corners of his eyes. Then, he tried his best to hold Ye Ningxiang tightly in his arms, and finally lost his strength and passed out.

Ye Ningxiang's whole mind was worried about Mu Xize's imminent death, and she didn't pay attention to how Mu Xize, who was supposed to be blind, accurately touched her cheeks and wiped away her tears and his blood very accurately.

Along the way, Ye Ningxiang kept calling Mu Xize's name and beating Mu Xize's body, hoping that things would turn around, hoping that he would wake up again, but things didn't go as people wanted, and Mu Xize never woke up.

The carriage ran wildly through the streets, and finally stopped in front of King Ning's mansion after turning a few street corners.

Princess Danyang waited at the gate of the palace early in the morning, and when she saw Mu Xize's carriage coming to the door, she ran to the carriage quickly and shouted: "Brother Xize!"

I saw that the person who got out of the carriage was actually covered with tears, and there were traces of blood, and Ye Ningxiang, who was dressed in black.

Seeing Ye Ningxiang with this appearance, Danyang had an ominous premonition in his heart, his hands tightly grasped Ye Ningxiang's shoulders, and his eyes became red, "Why are you dressed like this? Brother Xi Ze, where is he?"

"He's in the car. Probably because he felt that he had no skills to return to heaven, Ye Ningxiang's heart was like ashes, his eyes were blurred, and he became very wooden.

Ye Ningxiang didn't help carry Mu Xize out of the car, but just walked towards the palace by herself as if she had lost her soul, unable to hear the words of the people around her or see the things around her clearly.

The winter sun should not be so dazzling, but this sunlight made her feel very dazzling, and subconsciously raised her head to face the vicious sunlight, Ye Ningxiang felt that her eyes were black, and then she lost consciousness.

At the same time, Ji Beiyuan also rushed to King Ning's mansion, and when he saw Mu Xize like this, he couldn't help but sigh, and then took out a pill from his cuff and put it into Mu Xize's mouth.

"Princess Danyang, Poor Dao wants to treat His Royal Highness, and please don't disturb, so as not to hurt his life. ”

Princess Danyang immediately nodded in agreement, and ordered all slaves and maids to prohibit approaching Mu Xize's room.

Dream, Ye Ningxiang felt that she had many dreams, but she just couldn't wake up, but she didn't want to wake up, because the dream was so beautiful. In the dream, her family is still alive, Mu Xize is still her husband, Mu Xize and her father have no grudges, and the family is happy and loves each other.

There is also a child, the child of her and Mu Xize, is a cute little boy like Xiao Sitang, and his father dotes on his shoulders and plays games with him. Mu Xize was making soup for himself in the kitchen, and he looked at himself from time to time and smiled at himself.

Xiao Wu stupidly watched his little cousin Lin Yue play the piano, and Mu Jingyuan, who was often pestering Lin Yue, was sitting next to him.

Such dreams are so beautiful that people don't want to wake up, but dreams are dreams after all, and there will always be a time to wake up. Ye Ningxiang slowly opened her eyes, but found that she was lying on the bed, covered with two thick quilts, and there seemed to be a towel stained with water on her forehead.

"You're awake!" Mu Xize said to her with a smile.

Seeing Mu Xize sitting beside him alive, as if nothing had happened, Ye Ningxiang was shocked and even more happy, "How are you, are you already well?"

Mu Xize smiled and nodded, then grabbed Ye Ningxiang's hand, and said very gently: "I'm fine, but your business is not small, you have been burning for three days in a row, if you don't wake up again, I really don't know what to do." ”

"Ah, I've been in a coma for three days?" Ye Ningxiang struggled to get up and said.

Mu Xize didn't let her get up, deliberately pressed the bedding tighter, and said, "Don't get up first, the fever hasn't subsided yet, and you can't get cold." There's hot porridge on the stove that I have made for you, and I'll go and fetch it for you. ”

Then Mu Xize personally fed Ye Ningxiang porridge, and held Ye Ningxiang in his arms, probably a kind of joy of regain, Ye Ningxiang did not refuse Mu Xize's approach, and leaned on his arms very obediently. The two of them slept in this position until dawn.
