Chapter 1368: Painful Separation

In the middle of the night, the main hall of the palace ......

"Your Majesty, there is news of the war from the front...... "When the emperor was about to leave the palace and go to bed, the entourage of ministers suddenly came to the audience secretly with a confidential questionnaire in hand.

"What's the situation?" Seeing that there was a war at this time, the emperor must not be underestimated, and couldn't help but ask anxiously, "There is still a war report at such a late hour, what is going on?......" During the questioning, the emperor himself couldn't help but worry.

"Tongguan is lost...... the minister said in a sad tone, "There is news from Timur that the Tongguan garrisoned by Li Siqi has been lost, and Zhu Yuanzhang's army is about to approach Dadu——"

"Da-" Hearing the news, the emperor couldn't help but be surprised, the scroll in his hand fell, and he couldn't help but be stunned, "How can it be...... Is the news serious—"

"It's true......," the minister continued, "there have been many changes in the war in the past year, and since the fall of warlords such as Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng, Zhu Yuanzhang's power has risen rapidly, far beyond our imagination......"

"How can this be ......" When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but sigh sadly, "In just one year, important passes such as Shandong, Bianliang, and Tongguan have been broken one after another...... Could it be that I will really end up with the two emperors of Hui and Qin in the pre-Song Dynasty?"

"Your Majesty, the country is already crumbling, and I ask the emperor to make a decision as soon as possible-" The minister continued to plead.

"Are there any capable people in the court who can resist the invasion of the enemy army?" the emperor couldn't help but ask anxiously.

"Except for Timur, there is no one else in the court, but he himself is outside the pass, and there is no time to rescue the ...... of the capital," the minister continued, "Since the death of the king of Chatai, there are few reliable talents in the court, and with the turmoil of the 'Ming Restoration Religion' this year, the situation in the DPRK and China has been declining day by day...... Although it is not good to say this, according to Weichen, the soldiers and horses of the court can no longer stop Zhu Yuanzhang's offensive......"

"Could it be that my country is going to be handed over to Zhu Yuanzhang like this? I am not reconciled......" The emperor pounded the fist table case, and his heart was suddenly very painful, and he heard that the war ahead was defeated, and he thought that the Mengyuan country was overturned like this, and the emperor was very sad in his heart.

"Now I can only ask the emperor to make a decision as soon as possible, temporarily lead the people of the court and the central government to leave the capital and retreat to the northern plains, so that there can be a chance for revival...... " The minister continued to persuade.

"But I can't just leave like this, no matter how I say it, I have to stop Zhu Yuanzhang for a while......" The emperor held his forehead and closed his eyes and meditated.

"But there are no more people available in the DPRK, who can take on such a heavy responsibility?" the minister continued.

"By the way, there's another person—" The Emperor suddenly had a flash of inspiration and couldn't help but ask......

In the early morning of the next day, the dart board ......

The cave room was affectionate overnight, Sun Yun and Du Juan relied on each other, but Sun Yun got up early in the morning and left the room, not knowing where to go, leaving Du Juan alone, still sleeping in the room......

"Uh-huh......" In front of the sunlight reflecting the window, the cuckoo squinted his sleepy eyes, and only then woke up.

"Did Brother Yun go out early......" Du Juan saw that Sun Yun was not by the bedside, and couldn't help muttering, "Really, the wedding is still so busy, why bother......"

As he spoke, the cuckoo wanted to get up and get out of bed and go out of the room to see what was going on. But who knew that at the moment of consciousness, the cuckoo found that he couldn't move - when he looked at it, his hands and feet were tied behind his back, and he couldn't break free at all.

"How can this be?" After a night in the cave room, he woke up in such a situation, and the cuckoo couldn't help but exclaim, thinking that something had happened, and shouted outside the door, "Someone, is there anyone?" Brother Yun——"

However, as soon as the words fell, Lin Jing and Shi Changsong suddenly broke in.

"Ah Jing, Ah Song-" Finally seeing an acquaintance, Du Juan couldn't help asking, "How could it be you, Brother Yun?"

Who knows, Lin Jing and Shi Changsong had numb expressions, and the moment they approached Du Juan's side, Lin Jing couldn't help but say coldly: "I'm sorry, young lady......"

After speaking, Lin Jing and Shi Changsong actually lifted the cuckoo and the rope up, as if they wanted to take it somewhere.

"What are you going to do?——" Du Juan couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect Lin Jing and Shi Changsong to treat him so rudely, Du Juan couldn't help but panic loudly, "Come on, help, Brother Yun, where are you?——"

But at the moment when he was carried out of the door, Du Juan finally saw Sun Yun. But Sun Yun always had his back to him, standing in front of the door of the hall, and he couldn't bear to even look at himself.

"Brother Yun-Brother Yun......" Du Juan kept shouting with all his might, but Sun Yun just didn't look back, as if he was like a stranger, he was still a husband and wife yesterday, and today he was cold and indifferent. The cuckoo didn't know what was going on, and he felt that when he woke up in the morning, everything in the dart game was not normal.

"Forgive me, Juan'er......" Sun Yun didn't look back, just parted in pain.

"What the hell is going on, you tell me, Brother Yun-" The cuckoo continued to shout, but Lin Jing and Shi Changsong didn't give the cuckoo a chance to react, and carried the cuckoo out of the courtyard with their hands and feet, and finally threw it into the carriage that had been prepared outside the dart bureau......

"Wouldn't it be too cruel to do this?......" After a long time, Ren Guang walked to Sun Yun's side and couldn't help but ask softly, "She is your new wife, how ...... you treat her like this?"

"If I don't do this, she won't bear to leave me......" Sun Yun suddenly left all her tears and said silently, "If I tell her the truth, she will definitely stay by my side...... I can't let Juan Er be in distress anymore, it's my responsibility as a husband......"

"But when you do that, you really ...... Are you willing to ?......" Ren Guang paused for a moment, and then asked softly.

"I ......" Sun Yun didn't answer, but answered silently.

"For the sake of your father, for the sake of your family's last wishes, you will not hesitate to leave us......" Ren Guang continued.

"I'm sorry......" Sun Yun simply responded.

"You have nothing to apologize for, you don't owe anything, in our hearts, you will always be a part of the Dart Bureau, our young master......" Ren Guang continued, "It's just this parting, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see each other in the future...... We don't care, but isn't this a little too cruel to the young lady...... You only got married yesterday, and today you will say goodbye forever......"

"Ah Guang, you promise me one thing......" Sun Yun was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice, "After leaving the capital and going south, you have to take good care of Juan Er for me......"

"Are you really going to let it go, don't you go with us......" Ren Guang didn't answer directly, and continued to ask.

Sun Yun didn't speak, just quietly looked at the door of the main hall of the courtyard.

"Okay, maybe it's useless to say more......" Ren Guang sighed, "This time we are really gone, and after leaving, we may never see each other again......"

"Thank you, Ah Guang, thank you for always trusting me so much......" Sun Yun didn't say anything, and finally just whispered softly.

"Hmph, who called us brothers......" Ren Guang also smiled slightly, but under the smile, there was endless suffering......

After saying the last words to Sun Yun, Ren Guang left the dart bureau, got into the carriage with everyone, and slowly marched in the direction of the city gate.

really left Sun Yun alone, silently staying in the dart game that now seems lonely and depressed......

"Goodbye everyone, goodbye Juan'er......" Sun Yun finally glanced at the parting carriage and said in a silent whisper......

The convoy slowly marched towards the city gate, and after a long time, the cuckoo's hands and feet were untied by his subordinates......

"Can anyone tell me what happened?——" The cuckoo asked aloud in the carriage after he had been kept in the dark and free of his hands and feet.

"All this was arranged by the young master......" Ren Guang slowly walked into the carriage at this time, looked at the aggrieved look of the cuckoo, and couldn't help but say with a dry face, "I'm sorry, young lady, you have been wronged......

"Ah Guang, you are Brother Yun's best brother on weekdays......" Du Juan gradually calmed down, and couldn't help but ask, "But can you tell me, what is going on with all this?"

"After the young master came back from the palace yesterday, he told us everything,......" Ren Guang settled down, sat opposite the cuckoo and said slowly, "The young master killed Taishi Hansheng and avenged his father, but the people of the court will not let him go, and vow to kill him and the Lai Yun Dart Bureau...... In order not to implicate us, before the situation became serious, the young lord ordered all of us to leave the capital, go back and forth to the south, and leave here......"

"Where are you going—" Cuckoo asked again.

"Back to Bianliang-" Ren Guang replied calmly, "There, there is also the title deed we came to the dart bureau, and now that the war there is over, we can return to the original place and continue to run the dart bureau......"

"Brother Nayun...... Isn't he leaving?" Thinking that Sun Yun was not with him, Du Juan asked in surprise again.

"He chose to stay...... Ren Guang paused, and then said, "He said that he is a member of the Chatai family, and he wants to inherit his father's will and continue to stay here......

"You say...... What?" The cuckoo couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

"And it's not just the dart bureau that suffers......," Ren Guang continued, "The latest news, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops have broken through Tongguan, and the three-way army is coming to Dadu...... The young master said that he wanted to inherit his father and protect the court with due diligence, so he chose to stay alone......"

"No...... I don't believe it...... I don't believe ......" When Du Juan heard this, he couldn't help but cry and said, "No, I want to stay and accompany Brother Yun...... He's my husband, and I can't leave him alone to suffer here......"

"Young lady, don't bother......" Ren Guang continued, "Before leaving, we promised the young master that we would definitely protect you, young lady, and not let you ...... on your own."

Sure enough, the cuckoo wanted to get out of the car and go back, but Ren Guang grabbed her.

"Let go of me—let go of me......" Cuckoo cried as he tried to get out of the car, but Ren Guang clung to it and wouldn't let go, saying nothing that would make Cuckoo risk going back.

"I'm sorry, young lady, I promised the young master, I must bring you back to Bianliang safely......" Ren Guang said with blood dripping from his heart, holding the cuckoo's hand and not letting go.

"Brother Yun-Brother Yun......" Du Juan couldn't get out of the car, stuck his head out of the window, and shouted desperately in the direction of the dart bureau.

It's a pity that the carriage is getting farther and farther, and the old dart game gradually disappears from his field of vision......

At this moment, the dart board ......

Today's atmosphere in the city is depressing, under the dense clouds, the streets and alleys are like "ghost domains", the city roads under the dark blue, there is no ordinary people in sight, the cold wind is shocking like death, looking back at the sinking room, from time to time there is a sound of slaughter, which makes people frightened......

Sun Yun was alone, standing quietly at the door of the "ruins", staring at the grass and trees in the former courtyard.

In the entire dart game, Sun Yun was really the only one left, and he was left in this lonely courtyard. Sun Yun seemed to look down on everything in the world, wandered around the courtyard expressionlessly, walked to the door of a house, and couldn't help but stop.

This is his own dart game, and he has been in and out of the door at sunset countless times. However, under the courtyard full of eyes, only his door is slightly colored - in front of the door, there is a big red word "Xi", the bright eyes have not faded, and it seems that the time is not far away.

But the gusts of cold wind blew mercilessly, and it had already lifted the corner of the word "Xi" pasted on the door, perhaps the once festive color, for a while, it was even more set off with a thick sadness. Sun Yun saw it in his eyes, his eyes couldn't help but moisten, although his expression was lonely and vicissitudes, he couldn't hide the most real touch in his heart.

"It's all over, it's all over......," Sun Yun said to himself in a hoarse voice, "Maybe today, my life will come to an end...... I'm sorry Father, but I didn't fulfill your last wish, and now the child is here, and all the hard work I have worked so hard has been in vain...... What am I now......"

After speaking, Sun Yun stroked his hand on the threshold, looking at the deep cracks falling on the doors and windows, as well as the stone pillars in front of the stage that gradually accumulated dust, the sadness in his heart became heavier and heavier, like a piece of velvet flower in the mud, gradually buried with the soil, but it was no longer beautiful.

"And the father-in-law, the mother-in-law...... Juan'er......" Sun Yun thought about his former relatives again, and wanted to say again, "I will still be separated from you after all...... I'm sorry that my father, my mother, and my child didn't do your filial piety by your side...... I'm sorry, Juan'er, but I failed to do my duty as a husband and let you live as a widow at a young age......"

The voice was subdued, and it could be seen that the word "Xi" posted on the door was the "newlywed joy" between himself and Du Juan. However, Sun Yun was separated from his family, and in the end, he was left alone, in the empty courtyard of the dart game, staying in this "home" full of vicissitudes of life......

"Click, click...... "I don't know when, the sound of dense ironclad soldiers sounded outside the courtyard, as if surrounded by thousands of troops and horses, and all of them flocked to the dart bureau for a while.......

This scene is not the first time I have seen it, as early as a year ago, there were constant disputes between the Lai Yun Dart Bureau and the imperial court, and Sun Yun and others had experienced many outings, and even encountered several crises of annihilation. But no matter when, the dart game can turn the danger into a disaster, so that the last time Sun Yun "washed the Xiangfu" in order to avenge his brother's revenge, the truth of fate melted all this.

However, just today, the officers and soldiers of Meng Yuan once again surrounded the Dart Bureau, but this time, Sun Yun was the only one left in the entire Dart Bureau......
