Chapter 166: Escape
Earlier, when the founding of the country, Cao Mengde had mentioned this matter to Zhao Yu, and the last time he came to the other courtyard, he mentioned it again, presumably he really had the intention of abdicating.
When Zhao Ji heard this, she shook her head gently: "How can the concubine know if he is born? Whether Meng De abdicates or not is not his own." Even if you abdicate, you have to make a complete arrangement, and I am afraid that it will not be possible for a while. β
Zhao Yu nodded in understanding.
Then he said, "It's been twenty-eight years since I came back last time." I was so quiet that I wanted to go out for a walk. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qiao, who had a much more stable temperament, couldn't help but smile: "Really?"
She said: "Although the courtyard is stable, I always feel tired of it after a long time. β
Zhao Yu smiled and took her in his arms: "You haven't gone out less over the years, are you still tired?"
Xiao Qiao snorted: "Just go to my mother's house." I prefer to go on a trip around the world with my husband!"
Sun Ren, Da Qiao, and Mi Zhen all laughed.
Zhao Yu twisted Xiao Qiao's nose: "This is not a round-the-world trip. β
While the husband and wife were talking, they arrived at the pavilion in the back mountain and sat next to each other.
Hearing Zhao Yu's words, the wives and concubines became curious. Akihime asked him, "Isn't it a trip around the world, and what wonderful ideas does the husband have?"
Zhao Yu looked at Changtian with a smile, pointed to the endless blue sky, and said with a smile: "I mean the starry sky." β
Regarding the trip to the starry sky, Zhao Yu had not mentioned it before, and his wives and concubines did not know. At this time, I was a little surprised when I heard that I was going to the starry sky.
Xiao Qiao reacted quickly, blinking his eyes, revealing a touch of excitement: "You want to go to heaven?!"
Zhao Yu bowed slightly: "The earth, compared to the starry sky, is tantamount to a speck of dust. And on my trip, I have to start refining magic weapons, and the earth's resources can't support it. It's been 28 years since I came back last time, and I feel tired, so it's better to take a walk. β
Akihime, they are all jaws.
Marry a chicken and follow a chicken, wherever Zhao Yu wants to go, they will follow.
And there is no worry about survivalβeven in the starry sky, what can it be? The small world of Chaos Beads is not to be seen.
Over the years, every once in a while, Zhao Yu would also take his wives and concubines into the small world of Chaos Bead to live for ten days and a half months. Or take care of the medicinal herbs and spiritual objects in the small world, or change the scenery and mood.
Hearing Zhao Yu say that he was going to the starry sky, his wives and concubines all thought of this.
"No wonder the husband asked Meng De about the abdication. The husband is going to hand over the other courtyard to Meng De?"
Akihime asked.
Zhao Yu heard this and shook his head slightly: "I don't plan to give it to Meng De in the other courtyard." β
He looked at Zhao Ji: "My little sister is not married, I have always regretted it." In this case, the other courtyard will be handed over to the little sister. β
Zhao Ji was slightly stunned and nodded silently.
Twenty-eight years have passed, and Cai Xiaomei has never married. Even his temperament is restrained and cold, and he is close to Zhang Ling. Speaking of which, now, she is almost fifty years old, and Zhao Ji is also distressed. But the matter has come to this point, and there is nothing to be done.
Zhao Yu sighed: "It's also my fault that my little sister is like this. The other hospital gave it to her, and I was relieved. When I asked about Mengde, I just wanted to get together with him more before leaving, and that was it. β
Zhao Yu often said that he would go, and he never hesitated. If Cao Mengde abdicates at this time, he can gather for a while longer. Otherwise, I am afraid that it will be difficult to see each other again.
Once he enters the starry sky, if Zhao Yu wants to refine the magic weapon, he must take the stars outside the solar system. It's far away, and it's not a matter of time and a half. What's more, refining magic weapons, not to mention staring at them at any time, you can't leave for too long. Traveling back and forth to a star system, even with Zhao Yu's current cultivation, is not an easy task.
When you become a magic weapon, or get tired of it in the starry sky, and return, I am afraid that it will be hundreds of years later.
And Cao Mengde's physical mortal fetus, although he practiced martial arts, and now he is also opening up acupoints, but the remaining longevity is not decades away.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel lost in his heart. Looking at the five wives and concubines again, it is even more difficult to let go.
But in an instant, the divine soul used a sword to kill these distracting thoughts together, Zhao Yu said: "I have the intention of leaving at this time, in addition to being lacking on the earth, there are two other reasons. β
Saying that, Zhao Yu paused: "One is the seed of the immortal fruit, which will be conceived." It can be shed in March and May. Two..."
When Zhao Yu said this, he looked at Zhao Ji, as if he didn't know how to speak.
Zhao Ji and Zhao Yu have been husband and wife for so many years, not to mention the same heart, their tacit understanding is also unusual.
Seeing Zhao Yu hesitating like this, she suddenly understood, and a sad look appeared on her face: "Is my mother's longevity coming?"
Mrs. Cai is already old, and she is older than Cao Mengde. Over the years, he doesn't like to practice, and often says that he knows the destiny of heaven, and Zhao Yu and Zhao Ji are helpless. Now that his life is finally over, not to mention Zhao Yu, it is Zhao Ji, and he can also feel the twilight.
Zhao Yu took Zhao Ji in his arms, patted her back gently, and said in a low voice: "Mother Shouyuan, within this month." β
Big and small Qiao and others couldn't help but feel sad about it, and they also thought of their own relatives, and they were silent for a while.
Zhao Yu said: "Okay, my mother is dying..."
looked at Xiao Qiao, Sun Ren, and Mi Zhen again: "Take advantage of these few months, I will go back to my parents' house to have a look, maybe..."
...
People will eventually die, so they want to become immortals.
And those who cannot become immortals will return to heaven and earth, which is inevitable.
It's not a bad thing to die at the end of your life.
But blood and kinship, family affection is connected, how can it not make people sad?
It's like digging out a piece of your heart, losing a part, as if it were incomplete.
In the previous twenty-eight years, wives and concubines had already experienced such things. Xiao Qiao's father and mother all died during this period. I have to be depressed for a period of time every time, so that Zhao Yu can be comforted.
Sun Ren and Mi Zhen haven't experienced it yet.
Sun Ren's mother, Mrs. Wu, is not young, but she is still healthy. Brother Sun Ce and others are still in the prime of life, and they are in high power. Mi Zhen went to her parents early, and the two brothers are also in the prime of life. But once I go, I don't know when I can return it, and even when I go back, Zhao Yu is alone, and it is desolate, how can I tell it?
Zhao Yu didn't want to mention it, but after a period of time, the wives and concubines, except for Zhao Ji, all returned to their parents' homes to visit their relatives.
This move not only touched the hearts of everyone in the other courtyard, but also made Cao Mengde look at it.
And in the middle of January, Mrs. Cai finally died. After the old lady went, Cai Bo also seemed to be much older.
Cao Mengde came to the courtyard to pay respects, and then talked with Zhao Yu in detail.
Knowing that Zhao Yu was going to go, the intention of abdicating in his heart was even worse.
He said to him: "Sir is going to go away from the starry sky, I... Hey..."
Sigh or loneliness, all overflowing.
Zhao Yu said: "Life is nothing more than gathering and dispersing. You and I have been friends for many years, and I don't know if there will be a day to see each other again. β
Cao Mengde nodded silently.
After leaving the courtyard, Cao Mengde decided to abdicate, and a month later, he arranged everything and passed the position of the Son of Heaven to Cao Ang, and then took his wife and concubine to settle in the courtyard.
In another month, Zhao Yu and his five wives and concubines disappeared.
Cai Xiaomei was lonely, looking at the long sky, her face was lonely.
