Volume 1 Sunset Harvest Chapter 98 The old things are vivid
"Your Majesty is still waiting for Your Highness. ”
......
......
Before sunset.
"The sunset in Yingdu is indeed the best scenery in the world. The young man who slowly followed behind the two eunuchs tilted his head to look at the sunset on the horizon, walking in the destined long palace road.
The two eunuchs had gloomy clouds on their faces, thinking that they must be thinking about their future after the city was broken, they were definitely not concerned about the future of Nanchu, but they would not feel indifferent to their future.
The young man walking behind them, his heart was beating very hard, as the last prince of Nanchu, it was not easy for him to survive.
In the past years, the princes of Nanchu died one after another, and only he survived, and outsiders said that it was because he and His Majesty were brothers whose blood was thicker than water, so they survived.
But they are all brothers, why was King Liang forced to die?
The good-looking young man walked behind them and asked in a low voice, "I heard that in the past few days, many ministers have hanged themselves at home, and less than half of them came to the morning court meeting?"
The two eunuchs didn't think about it, but listening to the young man at the moment, one of the eunuchs subconsciously said: "Where there is a small half, there are only a few people, but Your Majesty is not angry at all, according to Your Majesty's temper ......"
Another eunuch took over and said only a little strangely: "Maybe it's because Your Majesty is tired these days?"
The two eunuchs had been living a very cautious life in the palace, and if it weren't for the precarious situation in Yingdu now, they would not have talked about His Majesty the Emperor in front of a prince.
When you are on an errand in the imperial city, what you are most afraid of is to ask more questions and talk more.
When the two eunuchs said this, although they wanted to continue, after all, they had been in the palace for so many years, and they still knew some measure, so they quickly closed their mouths, and the two of them looked at each other, only worry in their eyes.
The boy didn't speak again, but one hand slowly pressed the dagger on his waist.
His own imperial brother, he is not ignorant.
The south study is at the end of the palace road, here is the best place in the palace, if the weather is good at dusk, standing under the eaves outside the south study, you will see the most beautiful sunset in the whole Yingdu.
Emperor Wai was waiting for him under the cornice.
This emperor of Southern Chu is slender and heroic, but his face is not very good-looking, and there is no blood, which is related to Emperor Wai's excessive indulgence, and also related to the situation of Southern Chu at this moment, but that's it, just looking at it like this, no one will think that this emperor of Southern Chu is a faint monarch.
The young man stood still in front of the door, the two eunuchs who led the way had already left, the young man lowered his head, and was about to salute the mourning emperor, but the latter waved his hand and said a little tiredly: "There are no kings and ministers today, only brothers, you and I brothers, we have not drunk together for several years." Tomorrow may not have the opportunity, so let's talk about it today. ”
At this moment, outside the city of Yingdu is the heavy army of Daqi, and the capital of Yingdu is precarious, and the city may be broken in an instant.
As he spoke, Emperor Wai sat down on the stone steps in front of the door, with a pot of fine wine beside him.
The young man raised his head, saw the snow-white emperor robe, then moved his lips, and finally said yes.
The young man carefully sat beside Emperor Wai, he and Emperor Wai were twenty years apart, they were brothers, but in fact they were more like father and son, especially when Emperor Wai had no heirs.
"My father left Nanchu to me, but I want to give this Nanchu to the Great Qi thief tomorrow, how can you tell me to have the face to see my father, to see my mother, to see the ancestors and ancestors?"
The boy who picked up the wine glass did not drink it immediately.
He lowered his head, his heart growing heavier.
He lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "The imperial brother actually doesn't have to blame himself, the territory of Great Qi is dozens of times better than that of Southern Chu, and the crime of destroying the Southern Chu country is not the fault of the imperial brother." ”
Emperor Wai did not speak, and there was a brief moment of silence.
Deathly silence.
The young man lowered his head and took a sip of the wine, and when he looked up, Emperor Wai said: "Nanchu is gone, but I don't want to die like this." ”
Emperor Wai's voice gradually became cold, and the last king of Southern Chu looked at the sunset, and something else gradually appeared in his eyes, "I plan to pass on the throne to you, since you are a child of the royal family, then you should take on this responsibility." ”
Only then did the young man see another snow-white emperor's robe next to the stone steps.
If it is placed in the past, when Emperor Wai said such a thing, often later, there would be several people's heads on the ground.
Emperor Mourning's temperament is known to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, let alone his own brother.
Silence again. It's twilight when the weather is nice, but I feel a little weird.
"Does the imperial brother want me to be the king of this dead country?" the young man raised his head and said slowly, "Let me fall into the dust with the Sheji of Nanchu?"
When he spoke, the young man's lips trembled a little, and the whole person looked unnatural, but in the eyes of Emperor Wai, everything was as it should be.
It wasn't any ordinary liquor.
Looking at his own brother, Emperor Wai didn't have any unbearable emotions in his eyes, but just said flatly: "I will put on my imperial robe for you, let you die as a king, and then I will set a fire in the Nan study, and you will accompany Nan Chu to disappear into the world instead of me, which is also your final role as a royal child." ”
The voice was cold when it reached the back.
This was the last thing he had to say to the young man, he didn't have much time, and after solving this matter, he had to leave the palace quickly, and then find a chance to leave this Yingdu.
In the face of life and death, no social or family country is worth thinking about for him.
He poisoned the wine, and when the boy drank it, there was only one way left to die.
"Brother Huang, don't you think anything has changed?"
Emperor Wai suddenly heard such a sentence.
The voice was cold, but it was by no means emotionless, and Emperor Wai could even hear the extreme anger contained in the words.
This made him feel a little strange, and he subconsciously turned his head.
He saw a dagger glowing green, stabbing him in the chest.
The young man's hands held the dagger tightly, as if he was holding the sharpest sword in the world, in fact, for the young man, the dagger was more like his last hope.
He had been preparing for this day for years earlier.
He knows too well what kind of person Emperor Wai is.
This Southern Chu emperor was murderous, violent, and suspicious......
The reason why he kept the boy was that he had no children, and when he had children, the boy would have no value in existence, and at that time, the boy would definitely be given death.
So the boy has been preparing all the time.
Because Emperor Wai was suspicious, he didn't dare to practice martial arts all these years, and even pretended to be weak and sick.
And every night, he had to imagine that Emperor Wai was in front of him, and he held the dagger, stabbing it into his chest little by little.
Countless rehearsals every night, and he can't remember how many times he has done this action.
It's like he'd thought about the scene so many times before.
He believed that no one could do it better than him, whether it was the angle or the strength or the timing.
But he was still nervous, because if there was some deviation, death awaited him.
That was the end of what he had feared for years.
The young man's hands trembled a little, but at this moment, he still burst out with infinite strength.
Poof.
After a short period of time, everything was as it was in his mind, and the dagger finally pierced the chest of Emperor Wai.
The toxin began to spread in Waidi's body.
"You...... What?" Emperor Wai gasped, spitting out black blood, and spitting out a few words with difficulty.
Before Emperor Wai ascended the throne, he was still skilled in arching and horses, if he hadn't been hollowed out by wine over the years, how could he be stabbed by a teenage boy with a blow.
The blood vessels in his face began to darken, which was the effect of the toxin.
He lay on the stone steps, not looking like a king, but like an old dog who was struggling to breathe.
The young man didn't speak, he just held the dagger with both hands, pulled it out and stabbed it into the body of the mourning emperor, just this action, it lasted for a whole quarter of an hour, and after a quarter of an hour, the young man's whole person seemed to have used up all his strength, he let go of the dagger, supported the stone steps with one hand, and then fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Brother Huang wants me to die, but I don't want to die. The young man gasped and said: "In the years that the imperial brother has been the emperor, I have been very worried every day, worried that I don't know which night I will die in my sleep, and I can't even see the morning glow the next day, but the imperial brother is the emperor, and the entire Southern Chu is up to you, what can I do?
Emperor Wai's vitality is passing rapidly at this moment, and he has long been unable to open his mouth, unable to speak, where will he answer him.
The boy's emotions that he had suppressed for several years were all released at this moment, the boy had no mother since he was born, and after a few years it was a good day, his father and the brother who loved him the most passed away one after another, and in the following years, he watched his brother kill his brother every day, and he began to worry about his fate every day, such a day for a teenager to bear alone, and it was already very good if he was not driven crazy.
"Brother Huang, you are the emperor, you are the richest person in Southern Chu, you have everything, but why do you still come to rob me of my things? I only have this life left, and you still have to take it away?"
The boy's voice gradually became inaudible, but it grew colder.
Emperor Wai was already out of life at this moment, but he stared at the young man like this, his eyes full of puzzlement.
The young man took a deep breath and said the last words to Emperor Wai.
"Also, Brother Huang, you should know that Brother Liang is the best person for me, how can you force him to death?"
After saying this, the young man stood up slowly, looking at Emperor Ai's corpse, there was no emotion in his eyes, Emperor Ai didn't treat him as a brother, then so did he.
He let out a breath of turbidity, then bent down to carry Emperor Wai's body and dragged it to the south study, and when he walked out of the south study, the south study began to emit billowing smoke.
Standing on the stone steps, the young man slowly put on the snow-white emperor's robe, and from this time on, he became the last emperor of Southern Chu.
The Southern Chu royal family, he is the only one.
Wearing that snow-white imperial robe, there was no emotion on the young man's face, he was like a walking corpse, and it seemed that he would die at any time.
......
......
"Your Highness. ”
Suddenly, behind the palace, a young eunuch came out, he was born good-looking, even better than the young man in the snow-white imperial robe in front of him.
The young man turned his head and looked at the eunuch, and knew that everything he had done before had been seen by him, and if this kind of thing hadn't happened at this time, he would have been dragged into the Zongren Mansion even if he had a hundred reasons.
"I killed the emperor. "The young man is frank, and his heart is probably dead.
Of course, it is also because the young eunuch beside him is his only friend in this palace, and of course it can be said that he is the only friend in his life.
"Then Your Majesty is the last emperor of Southern Chu. The young eunuch sighed, changed his words, and sat down beside him, less respectful than before.
"Gu Ming, I did the right thing, I just don't want to die. The young man whispered, "This is something left by my father, although I didn't give it to me, I don't want to spoil it." ”
"But it was lost. Gu Meng whispered.
The foundation of the dynasty cannot be turned by one person.
"Brother Huang wants to leave, but I won't go, I will stay, even if I die here. The young man spoke, but his words were extremely firm.
"If death is useful, what are you waiting for?" Gu Meng smiled at the corner of his mouth, "I heard that Daqi will not kill these monarchs of Nanling, maybe it is to appease the people, or maybe it is because of some other intention, these are not within our control, but Your Majesty must know that only by living can we do things." ”
The young man frowned and said, "Then I want to restore the country?"
"You have to live. ”
Gu Meng said: "I found a picture in the treasure house, does Your Majesty remember the cultivator who came to Yingdu many years ago?"
Of course, the young man remembered, although he didn't see it with his own eyes, but it was a big deal, and he still remembers that the cultivator who claimed to be from Zheshan came to Yingdu in the first place, and in the end only left a map, and after several turnovers, he was finally included in it by the imperial palace.
There are occasional rumors about becoming a cultivator, but there is not much temptation for the children of the royal family who have lived in fine clothes and food since childhood.
After all, it's all a legend.
"Your Majesty can't leave Yingdu, but I should be able to, I want to go to Zheshan and become a cultivator, and I may be able to rescue Your Majesty in the future. ”
Gu Meng said calmly: "If you are not strong enough, you will always be bullied, and you will never be able to control your own destiny." ”
As he spoke, Gu Meng stood up, he looked at the young man, and instructed: "Your Majesty wants to live, I will come to you soon, Nan Chu still has hope, it is in Your Majesty." ”
The situation was critical, Gu Meng couldn't take care of it much, and after saying this, he ran into the distance and never looked back.
And the young man, looking at Gu Meng like this, disappeared from his sight little by little.
"Okay, I'll wait for you. ”
In the end, only this voice remained in the imperial city.
