I felt that the late emperor's words were too cruel to Young Lord Phoenix. For the first time in my memory, the treasure that the late emperor held in his palm shed a tear.
"I know you love my mother, but I won't give up. You have me here! " Young Lord Phoenix placed her hand on the late emperor's chest. "I'm in your heart. You can lie to me, but you can't lie to yourself!"
After saying that, Young Lord Phoenix ran out barefooted.
"Long 'er …" In the past, the late emperor would have chased after her. The night was dark and the wind was strong. Moreover, Young Lord Phoenix was barefooted, so the late emperor would be worried about her. But this time, the late emperor only called Young Lord Phoenix by her pet name and didn't chase after her.
"Foyle, am I wrong to do this?"
The late emperor asked me, but my acupoint was sealed and I couldn't speak. Even after my acupoint was unsealed, I still couldn't answer him. After all, I wasn't involved and didn't know how it felt. Naturally, I couldn't answer him.
After that night, Young Lord Phoenix left without saying goodbye, leaving behind a letter. In the letter, she said that she wanted to travel the continent to mature, but I clearly saw a heart-wrenching expression on the late emperor's face.
In the following days, Young Lord Phoenix would send me letters every three days. It was still the late emperor's familiar handwriting, and the content was nothing more than where she had been and what she had seen. However, at the end of every letter, Young Lord Phoenix would write, "Wait for my return."
This went on for a year. Suddenly, Young Lord Phoenix stopped writing. I waited for a long time, but she didn't write back.
During that period of time, I could clearly feel that something was wrong with the late emperor. When he was reading through the memorials, he would immediately raise his head when he heard footsteps, wanting to know if it was a letter from the eunuch. Disappointment after disappointment made the late emperor's face turn grave, and he became thinner.
Young Lord Phoenix had disappeared into thin air, and even her family didn't know where she had gone. After reading Feng Qi Qi's letter, the late emperor became anxious. Phoenix had always been filial, so it was impossible for her to not contact her family. But this time, even her family didn't know where she had gone, so the late emperor was sure that something had happened to her.
Feng Xiao was summoned back by the late Emperor, and the late Emperor passed the throne to him. He took the letters written by Young Mistress Phoenix and began to search for Young Mistress Phoenix. In other words, the late emperor walked the path she walked and drank the soup she tasted … Starting from the first letter, the late emperor followed the footsteps of every letter to search for the whereabouts of the Little Phoenix Master.
Contrary to the late emperor's attitude, Feng Qiqi did not seem to be worried about her daughter at all, and she did not send anyone to look for Young Master Phoenix either. This was a little unusual. I noticed it but did not tell the late Emperor. I only followed him along the bumpy journey and finally arrived at Xi Liang City, the former capital of Xi Qi Kingdom.
Up until now, Xi Qi Country had already become Nan Feng Country's territory for many years. Returning to the place where I had been imprisoned for ten years, I had too many feelings in my heart.
Little Phoenix Lord's last letter was sent from here, and there was no more news of her after that.
The late Emperor and I took Little Phoenix Lord's portrait and posted it everywhere, asking people to help find Little Phoenix Lord's whereabouts.
During this month, I saw the late Emperor turn from a mature and handsome man to a sloppy one. A layer of stubble grew on his clean chin, making him look very dispirited and dispirited.
"Fuer, I've lost her," the late Emperor said to me as he looked at the people coming and going in Xi Liang City. His words were filled with endless remorse, making me feel pity for this Emperor.
The late Emperor probably did not know that his love for her had long changed from an elder's love for a junior to a man's love for a woman. As the saying goes, the onlooker sees the game more clearly than the onlooker. Although I was an onlooker, I could not say anything.
"Uncle, a sister asked me to give this to you."
Just as the late Emperor sank into loneliness again, a child with a teapot hairstyle came over and stuffed a note into the late Emperor's hand. Then, he ran away with a smile.
I did not know why, but when I saw this scene, I suddenly felt a sense of hope in my heart. Before I could react, the late Emperor had already run away, disregarding his image.
Forgive me for my old age, but I could not compare to the late Emperor. I could only hire a horse carriage to chase after him. When I caught up with the late Emperor, we arrived at the lake. A small boat was anchored by the shore, seemingly waiting for us.
When we arrived at the big boat on the lake, we heard the sound of a zither. At that time, I clearly saw the late Emperor's hands tremble. It was her. Only she could play such beautiful music.
As a qualified servant, I did not follow the late Emperor up, but left this place for them.
However, even so, I still heard the voice of the Phoenix Lord. I swear, I only heard one sentence, and that sentence was like this.
"Back then, you met my mother on this boat and fell in love with her. Now that you have met me here, can you, love me once? "
I do not know what happened after that. Even if you interrogate me, I do not know what happened. Forgive me for being an old man. Old people tend to be forgetful. There are many things that I do not remember.
Perhaps, you will say that I am playing dumb. Then what you said is correct! As a servant who had lived in the Imperial Palace for sixty years, as long as he was able to live, he must have a way to survive. For example, I know what can be said, and what cannot be said. I also know when to be a sensible person, and when to be a muddle-headed person.
I can only tell you that later on, the late Emperor accompanied the Phoenix Lord to the Wind Chasing Cliff in Yongzhou. I am old, and the late Emperor sympathized with me, so he did not allow me to follow them. As for what happened there, I do not know anything.
The only thing I know is that the ending of this story is a cliché. The late Emperor and the Young Phoenix Master lived happily together. Therefore, some people, including me, an old eunuch who can't be any older, lived happily.
In August, the sun was blazing. A caravan was slowly moving at the foot of the Great Yu Mountain.
"Damn, it's so hot!" The leader of the caravan, Song Xi, wiped the sweat on his face. "If this heat continues, when we reach the Fishing Pass, I will f * * king lose a layer of skin." Song Xi's words made the people in the caravan unable to feel happy.
Usually, when Song Xi spoke, there would always be people who would agree with him. But this time, the weather was too hot, and because they had arrived at the Great Yu Mountain, the bandit Xi Mei was very fierce. Therefore, no one was happy.
