Chapter 146: Chu Feng Country 63
In the palace of Chu Feng, the eldest prince Xi Biao stood in front of the Enyang Palace, holding the hilt of his sword tightly in one hand, looking at the dark night outside the city, his face was like Yushan in the twilight, quiet and depressed.
Xi'er, who came out of the hall, saw the back of his eldest brother and stepped forward to call out.
Xi Biao didn't look back, just nodded and asked, "How is the queen mother's health?"
"I've been coughing up blood for a day, I've just recovered, and I'm trying to see my little brother. ”
Xi Er sighed, stepped forward and stood side by side with Xi Biao, and said, "The queen mother misses the fifth sister, and when she was unconscious, she called a few Ah Yin." ”
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Ayin since she left Chu Feng. Xi Biao shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's strange, I didn't like it when I was messing around in the palace at that time, but now I miss it tightly." ”
Seeing the depressed expression on Xi Biao's face, Xi Er sniffed and changed the topic
"Tomorrow is the first seven of the third brother. ”
Xi Biao turned his head to look at the wind blowing the flag, and after a while, he spoke
"Second brother, it's not too early, it's time for you to leave. ”
"I don't want to go. ”
Xi Yan's hands clenched into fists, and he lowered his eyes, "I want to stay, accompany you, as well as my father and mother." ”
"You read a lot, you should know the weight. Xi Biao raised his hand and put it on the other party's shoulder, pinched it tightly, and said, "Under the eyelids of Qing Guogong, no matter how powerful the sting is, the gap left behind will not always go undetected." ”
"I don't want to be like a deserter, just me and Xiaoliu left. "I want to be with you, even if it's together..."
"You are not a deserter, you and Xiao Liu are here to preserve the bloodline of the Chu Feng royal family. Xi Biao interrupted the other party, "It's very simple to die, but if you live, you have a chance to start over." ”
The two brothers were still arguing, and a woman who looked like a palace maid leading an eight-year-old child came out of the Enyang Palace.
When Xi Biao and Xi Er saw each other, they bowed their heads and saluted.
"Sister-in-law. And so they called the woman.
It turned out to be Princess Yuehua, who was married to the Chaoyue clan, she squeezed the little boy's hand and urged
"Just now, the king of Zhennan sent someone to spread the word, saying that he left from the north gate after a stick of incense, and he had already mapped the way to Chaoyue. ”
Saying this, she stopped, looked back at the palace, and said, "The imperial sister-in-law urged us to leave quickly." ”
"It's time to go. Xi Biao patted Xi Er's shoulder, "Second brother, please." ”
"Either I'll stay and you go. Xi'er's eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't bear to leave his eldest brother alone.
Xi Biao shook his head, glanced at the square in front of the hall, and said
"Maybe I'll be captured in Liangcheng and see Ayin. ”
After speaking, he squatted down and pinched the sixth brother's face, deliberately relaxing his tone
"Little brother, I have to listen to my sister-in-law and second brother in the future, do you know?"
Apparently the child hadn't realized what he was facing, he nodded and asked
"Big brother, when are you going to pick me up?"
"There will be a day. Xi Biao stood up and raised his hand to rub the other party's hair.
After sending off Xi Er and his sister-in-law and others, Xi Biao came to the main hall and saw his father facing the candle tree, he was wearing an enthronement dress, and the hair on his head was gray.
"How's your queen mother?"
After hearing Xi Biao say that everything was fine, King Chu Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly, and the afterimage of the candle flame blown by the wind danced in his pupils.
The end of his life is approaching, and he has a sense of it.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, and the landing was powerful, and the steps were neat, it was a group of troops.
King Chu Feng got up slowly, picked up the Wang Yin that had been placed on the table before, and walked out step by step.
Xi Biao stopped his father and wanted to take the items in his hand, but was dodged by the other party.
"I am enough for the death of the country and the dedication of the seal. "King Chu Feng's voice is slow and old" is recorded in the annals of history, and it is good that I am spurned alone. ”
"Father," Xi Biao, who had always been resolute, choked up at this moment, and put down his hands tremblingly, hammering his hammer at his side and clenching it into a fist.
Seeing his father walking out with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Xi Biao closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
