Xiao Yunyi looked at him with a complicated gaze, pausing for a moment before continuing in a low voice, "At that time, I was watching coldly from the sidelines. Do you know what I was thinking? I am envious of you. You obviously have a cold face and don't say anything, but you are surrounded by a group of Imperial brothers. If I were the Crown Prince and you were the Crown Prince of Great Yue, how good would that be? But I was also jealous. Why did I have to live like a dog when I clearly had the most noble bloodline in the world, flaunting in front of you? "
The trace of blood hanging from Xiahou Qing's mouth gradually dried up, making it more difficult for him to speak. "Your Highness is thinking too much. At that time, I was young and naturally liked silence. When I first entered the palace, I didn't know what to say and could only keep my mouth shut."
"I know. I could tell at a glance that you didn't want to talk to anyone at all. You wanted to stay far away from them and run to the side to bask in the sun. That's why when Third Brother suggested a polo match, you frowned. However, Third Brother insisted on it and even pulled Imperial Father over to watch the match. Imperial Father asked you who you wanted to be on the team with. He didn't expect you to turn around and point at me in the corner. What was more unexpected was that you and I cooperated so well and won the first place, pressing the other brothers firmly below. Everyone was shocked and took the jade pendant that Father used as a prize. That was the first time in many years that I caught Father's eye. What I didn't expect the most was that a few days after I happily took the jade pendant, I encountered the crazy revenge of the other brothers. "
"Does Your Highness blame my unintentional actions for disturbing Your Highness's low profile for so many years?"
Xiao Yunyi shook his head, smiling faintly. "No, I don't blame you. On the contrary, I want to thank you. If it wasn't for you, perhaps I would still be a coward who only knows how to hide in his shell to save his life. In fact, at the beginning of the match, I didn't want to be in the limelight. I was used to lowering my head and even occasionally raising it felt uncomfortable. But your light was so bright that I didn't know why a fire was lit in my heart and it made me crazy. You hit a ball, but I wanted to hit one more than you to prove that I didn't succumb to your halo. Because of you, I was forced to cut my umbilical cord and come to Imperial Mother's side after being framed by Imperial Concubine Qi. It can be said that it is because of your existence that I am who I am now. I had a great time playing polo with you. "
Xiao Yunyi had hidden this psychological analysis in his heart for more than three thousand days and nights. He thought that he would never say it out loud, but he did not expect that he would feel so happy after saying it out loud today, as if he had let out a breath of relief.
A trivial matter in the past, brought up again after so many years, suddenly seemed like a mirage, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Xiahou Qing laughed and said, "Move the sun, command the blue sky. Now that I think about it, that match was indeed delightful. You're welcome. "
The rope was already fastened and the pile of firewood was set up properly. Buckets of hot oil quickly soaked the pile of firewood. Xiao Yunyi took the torch from his subordinate, his dark eyes silently reflecting Xiahou Qing's weak body. He said, "This life is over. I'm looking forward to fighting with the Crown Prince again if there's a chance in my next life. At that time, we'll be enemies and see who's stronger."
"Light the fire."
The flame was like a snake's tongue, instantly lighting the firewood. It slithered towards Xiahou Qing's feet, eagerly licking his robe. Everyone stared with wide eyes, excitedly clapping their hands while holding their breaths. They waited for a living body to burn into a skeleton in front of them, giving off the smell of flesh and wood being burned to ashes. It was as if their souls had been burned.
Cao Hou gripped Tian Ze Emperor's arm tightly, almost crushing it through the dragon robe. Her life's hatred would finally dissipate at this moment. She was so excited that tears almost came out of her eyes.
Hahaha, this time, she had personally ordered people to set up the fire. Don't think that your tricks will have a chance to stir up trouble again.
Burn! Burn! Burn!
Burn! Burn! Burn! Burn to your heart's content!
Just as the fire was about to engulf Xiahou Qing, suddenly, a sharp shout pierced through the sea of people.
"Your Majesty! Not good, just now when the ground was shaking, the mountain rocks at Xiangori Mountain suddenly splashed everywhere, and dust filled the sky. After everything calmed down, a few big bloody words suddenly appeared on the body of the Buddha guarding Xiangori Mountain! "
Tian Ze Emperor blurted out, "What words were written?"
"The Crown Prince has returned."
