It was five in the morning, and the sky was gray and foggy. This kind of weather was the most unsuitable for traveling, but Ye Wuchen's itinerary did not change because of this.
A Yeh family's best maroon horse, a young man who was not even 20 years old, and two young girls who stuck closely to him. And all the things he needed were placed in the God of Swords Ring.
"Must you really bring them along? It's so dangerous outside … Mother will take good care of them. "Although she knew that she would be rejected, Wang Wenshu still tried to persuade him again. She was more worried that these two girls would drag him down.
"Yes, they are used to being with me, and I don't want to be separated from them. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to them, and I won't let anything happen to me. "Ye Wuchen explained again, and then pushed open the Yeh family's door.
In the thick fog, a trembling and delicate figure was reflected. Ye Wuchen was stunned at first, then suddenly shocked. He let go of the horse's reins, ran over and hugged her tightly in his arms, and said with heartache: "Little Rourou, how long have you waited?"
Hua Shuirou's entire body was already wet from the dew, and when Ye Wuchen touched it, it was cold. He did not know how long she had been standing there. In his heartache, he did not care about anything else, and gathered a gentle fire element to warm her body.
Wang Wenshu also rushed over to hold her cold hand, and said with heartache and blame: "Silly child, why don't you go in?"
"I … I'm not cold." Her body was shivering, and her lips were a little pale. Because he was worried that Ye Wuchen would leave early and could not personally send him off, Hua Shuirou hid it from his father, and waited here when the sky was still dark. But because he was afraid that he would disturb Ye Wuchen and the Yeh family's sleep, he did not dare to call for him to enter, and instead waited here quietly, anxiously waiting for him to come out.
"You're already like this, and you still say you're not cold. Little Rourou, when did you learn to lie to your husband? "Ye Wuchen protected her in front of his chest. With his efforts, Hua Shuirou's body finally began to relax. She leaned all her weight on his chest and said in a daze, "How can I be cold when you hug me?"
Ye Wuchen smiled and hugged her tightly again. He whispered, "I'll be back soon. Be good and wait for me. On the day I return, we will get married … Even if the emperor doesn't agree, I will make him agree. "
After a short silence, she murmured happily, "Mmm …"
After a long time, she gently pushed Ye Wuchen away, and then placed the small bundle she had been protecting in front of her chest into Ye Wuchen's hands. She softly said, "Husband, these are the clothes I made for you these past few days, and a pair of shoes. Also … My father said that there might not be any houses several dozen li to the south, so I prepared some food. It should be enough for today's lunch."
She stretched out her hands and carefully took off a colorful jade pendant that hung around her neck. Then she stood on her tiptoes and gently hung it around Ye Wuchen's neck. At the same time, she looked at his eyes with infatuation and said, "This is the seven-colored jade that has been passed down in my mother's family for generations. When I was born, my mother hung it around my neck to protect me for a lifetime. Now that it is on Husband's body, it will definitely protect Husband's safe departure and safe return. "
Ye Wuchen's heart felt like it was melting with warmth. He even suddenly thought that if he hadn't come to this world by a freak combination of factors, who knew which bastard would be enjoying such gentleness now.
He hugged the faintly warm bundle tightly, held her hand, and softly said, "Wait for me …"
At this moment, the only thing he could say was this simple word.
"Go, go early … and come back quickly." Hua Shuirou helped him tidy up the hair in front of his forehead and the clothes that had been wrinkled by him, and said reluctantly. She knew that since he had chosen to leave at this time, there must be a reason. She could love him, be attached to him, miss him, and be reluctant to part with him, but she must not drag him down or delay him.
"Go, be careful on the way. If you can't do it, come back early. Your safety is more important than anything else. "Ye Wei, who had been silent all this time, said. This time today was supposed to be the court time, but both he and Ye Nu did not go. No matter how confident Ye Wuchen appeared to be, they could not help but be deeply worried. Because … even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, this was their last reunion.
"Go, it's good to leave early, then you won't be discovered by others." Ye Nu also raised his hand and sighed. This old man hadn't slept at all last night. Who knew how many times he had wanted to get out of bed to try and persuade Ye Wuchen to give up. What he couldn't get past was not the Emperor, but Ye Wuchen.
"Chen'Er, don't let yourself down outside, don't lose weight. Don't be reluctant to spend the silver … "Wang Wenshu pulled Hua Shuirou's hand and said reluctantly.
Ye Wuchen nodded, his gaze sweeping across them one by one. Then, carrying Ningxue and Oculum, he lightly leapt onto the back of the horse. Without turning back, he galloped away. The sound of the horse's hooves was particularly loud in the silence, slowly coming closer and farther in the thick fog.
At the corner, Ye Wuchen finally turned back. Because of the thick fog, they couldn't see his figure at this time, but Ye Wuchen could still see them clearly. Hua Shuirou still maintained his original posture, looking in his direction with hazy eyes, unwilling to leave. Apart from them, he also saw another figure … Ye Shuiyao, who had been basking in the moonlight last night. Only when he left did she quietly look at his back.
After a full two hours, Long Huang'er's extremely aggrieved shout came from the Yeh family's door, "You big bad guy … big bad guy! In order to send you off, this princess woke up so early for the first time in her life, but you actually left … Sob sob, it's really too hateful! I hate you!! "
…
Time: Ten minutes after Ye Wuchen left. Location: Imperial Study of Tian Long Imperial Palace.
A black figure appeared behind Long Yin like a ghost, bowing and saying, "Your Majesty, he has already left. What this old man doesn't understand is that he actually took the two girls who usually sleep with him with him. "
"Oh?" Long Yin turned around, "There's such a thing?" Then, he laughed loudly, "As expected of a romantic youth, bringing his private pets with him wherever he goes. This is really unexpected. But this also shows that he isn't worried about his safety on this journey. "
"Do you still need this old man's protection in secret?"
"No need. It seems that he has enough confidence. We will need you at any time. "Long Yin waved his hand and said.
At this time, Long Yin's personal eunuch walked in and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Third Prince requests an audience."
"Oh? Qi 'er? " Long Yin frowned, "He must have something important to say since he came so early. Let him in. Elder Li, you can leave first."
The two responded at the same time, and one left while the other hid. Very quickly, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard. Long Zhengqi came in and knelt down on one knee, "This son greets father. May I ask why father summoned this son so early in the morning?"
"Get up … Oh? Wait, when did we summon you? "Long Yin could tell that something was wrong and asked with a serious expression. At the same time, a faint shadow of unknown origin appeared in his heart.
Long Zhengqi got up and said in confusion, "When this son woke up, I saw an imperial note by my bedside, telling me to quickly see father after waking up. This son thought that father didn't want to disturb this son's sleep, so I hurried over after waking up … Could it be that this wasn't father's intention? "
Long Yin's gaze became sharp, and he said in a low voice, "We definitely didn't tell anyone to summon you."
"This …"
Just as Long Zhengqi said a word, his voice was cut off. His eyes instantly widened, as if they were going to pop out of their sockets at any moment.
This was because he saw a pair of pitch-black eyes.
Long Yin immediately noticed this and quickly went up to support his shoulder, "Qi 'er, what's wrong?"
Bang!!
For the rest of his life, Long Yin would never forget this muffled sound that was so close to him, because this was the sound of his most satisfied son's body exploding. There was also the bloody mist that exploded in front of his eyes … Like the curse of the terrifying Grim Reaper, it was firmly imprinted in the depths of his heart, bringing him nightmares one after another.
In that instant, time seemed to slow down. Blood sprayed all over Long Yin's body, and pieces of flesh, as well as blood-stained clothes, flew towards every corner of the imperial study. Long Yin's eyes widened in fear as he trembled and fell to the ground. His soul had been sucked out by this sudden purgatory. In front of his eyes, there was nothing but blood.
Three old figures appeared at the same time, and the young eunuchs who heard the noise also rushed in. The scene in front of them caused them to freeze on the spot, wondering if they were still dreaming.
The three great reverends looked at each other in dismay, and the three old men who were usually calm and collected were all shocked. At this moment, a piece of white paper floated down from the sky without any warning, landing accurately in Long Yin's hands. Long Yin looked at the paper with trembling hands, and then his pupils shrank violently …
On it was written: "The ruler of a country has repeatedly harmed his loyal son, and has been punished by the heavens."
Clenching the paper in his hand, Long Yin, who was covered in blood, slowly stood up from the pool of blood. He was, after all, an emperor, and even this kind of psychological and visual impact could not defeat him. He bit the tip of his tongue, at this moment, what he needed the most was to calm down … calm down!
The eunuchs and guards who rushed in were all dumbfounded, and their eyes were filled with fear, but no one dared to speak. Long Yin said coldly, "An assassin has broken in, and has been killed. What are you all standing around for? Hurry up and clean up!"
These people seemed to have woken up from a dream, and trembled with fear as they began to clean up. Anyone with eyes would know that the Third Prince had just entered, and from the blood on the ground, the person who had died with an intact corpse was clearly the Third Prince. And the Emperor had given this order, it was obvious that he did not want anyone to know about this matter, so the only outcome for them was — — to be silenced.
In front of the fear of death, they did not even feel disgusted, and they did not have the heart to look at the three great reverends who were usually mysterious and unfathomable.
