Three days later, Taishi Rong "suicide in fear of sin".

Xiao Lu stepped in the dark and damp cell, looked at the teacher's body, remembered that the teacher was upright, but even if he died, he would be cast aside by thousands of people, but the culprit looked regretful, and he was still beside him with hypocritical emotion. Master Rong is really such a person.

At this moment, Xiao Lu was extremely angry.

He can't wait to draw the sword directly and kill this person!

Corrupting loot and perverting the law, disregarding honor and inferiority, deceiving the superior and concealing the inferior, taking care of people's lives... These are all things you do. Not only are you doing these things, but you also want to replace Gu as the emperor!

Biquge

However, Xiao Lu took a deep breath, and he finally endured it, because he was not ready, and now he just wanted to die, and when he died, he would have nothing... He couldn't take revenge for his teacher, and he couldn't take revenge for his mother. , can't return this world to Haiyan Heqing.

He can only endure.

This man did it on purpose. He did this to kill the chickens and warn the monkeys, and let himself see what happened to the people who helped him.

Let yourself know that only when An An is a puppet can he have a chance to survive.

Xiao Lu did what he wanted, making him think he was afraid and gave in.

Let him think that he was just impulsive and unwilling for a while, but now he dares not.

After that day, Xiao Lu never went to the Rong Mansion again.

His carelessness killed the teacher, and he could no longer implicate the Rong family.

He thought that his patience and concessions could make the enemy temporarily stop, but who knows... or underestimated the cruelty and ruthlessness of the other party.

That night was a snowy night.

When he got the news and rushed over, it was too late.

Xiao Lu looked at the corpses all over the ground and was in pain. He hated his powerlessness, hated himself as an emperor, but he couldn't even protect the people he wanted to protect. No one is still alive, even if there is one person alive...but no, not one...

Finally, he came to the quiet courtyard. He carefully guarded the pure land in his heart. At this moment, the cobblestone pavement was stained with blood. Xiao Lu saw a familiar figure of a young man. On the ground... Xiao Lu's breathing froze, and he didn't dare to take a step forward.

As if a step away, is boundless purgatory.

After a long time, Xiao Lu finally walked over, tremblingly, and embraced the young man in his arms. Then his heartbeat almost skipped a beat. The one wearing the young man's clothes was his personal servant.

His boy is still alive.

At this moment, the icy blood all over his body seemed to be warm again... Xiao Lu had never been so eager to find someone, he jumped his horse into the swirling snow.

Snowflakes fell, and the cold wind was blowing like a knife on his face, but Xiao Lu didn't realize it, and despite the guard's dissuasion, he finally found a familiar thin figure in a dark alley.

Xiao Lu's eyes suddenly became hot, and he picked up the boy without hesitation. The boy's body was cold, and his eyelashes were covered with snow. When he looked at himself, his dark eyes suddenly ignited a small cluster of sparks, and he shuddered. - trembling hands, clutching his sleeves tightly, making a faint voice: please, take me back, okay?

He is begging him.

beg him to take him home.

Xiao Lu had never rejected any request from the young man before.

But this time, that one good word, but no matter what, can't say it.

He has no way to tell the boy that you can't go back because there is nothing left.

He had no way to tell him the cruel truth.

………………

Xiao Lu took the boy back and placed him in a secret house.

The teenager was in a coma for a few days and finally woke up. Xiao Lu was suddenly a little afraid to face the teenager, but escaping could not solve the problem, so he went anyway.

But what surprised him was that the young man seemed unusually calm, he fixedly looked at him and only said a word.

He said: Your Majesty, you will avenge us, won't you?

Xiao Lu was shocked. He never told the young man his identity, but at this moment, he looked at the young man with clear eyes, and suddenly realized that the young man was much smarter than he thought. Maybe he didn't understand anything, just what Don't say it, but the more it is like this, the more pitiful it becomes...

Xiao Lu closed his eyes in pain. After a long time, he answered with one word: Yes.

Even if you don't speak up, I won't stop here, the Chen family must pay for this with blood!

Xiao Lu told the young man the cause and effect.

There is no concealment.

Taishi Rong was upright and upright, and the Rong family was targeted by General Zhenguo because he chose to help him, perhaps because of his own negligence... In any case, their plan was discovered, and the Rong family suffered a disaster.

This was not what he wanted, but it happened because of him.

Xiao Lu felt a lot of guilt and pain in his heart. After he said this, he didn't even dare to look into the boy's eyes or face the boy's resentful gaze. He thought that the boy would blame him for hating him...

but no.

The boy just looked at him quietly and said: Your Majesty, I don't hate you.

Xiao Lu stared blankly at the young man.

The young man's eyes were so clear, quiet, and firm.

He is the purest and pure white snow. He suddenly broke down and faced violent winds and rains, but he did not run away cowardly or feel sorry for himself, but faced the reality firmly.

He has grown a lot overnight.

Xiao Lu has never realized so clearly that even if the boy is weak, he is still a strong family member, not a delicate flower that will be destroyed by wind and rain.

That's what attracted him.

………………

Xiao Lu is now unable to protect himself, walking on thin ice, unable to leave the palace from time to time, worried about not being able to protect Rong Xuan's safety, and after a period of time he comes to see the young man and wants to send him out of the capital to stay away from right and wrong.

But the boy rejected him.

Perseverance and firmness to stay.

Xiao Lu knew that the boy didn't want to leave, and understood his unwillingness to escape, but it was dangerous to stay in the capital, and the boy's insistence made him very embarrassed... After thinking about it, Xiao Lu made a suggestion.

Everyone in the world said that Rong Xuan was dead. If Rong Xuan pretended to be a male favorite and entered the palace, who would have thought that his male favorite would be the last bloodline of the Rong family.

The most dangerous place is the safest place.

This is the only way Xiao Lu can think of, and if this is the case, he will be able to see the young man from time to time... Xiao Lu feels ashamed for the selfish desires that flashed away in his heart.

But this method really humiliated Rong Xuan's identity. He suppressed the invisible desire in his heart, and still planned to send Rong Xuan out of the capital...

Who knew that Rong Xuan's promise was very clean and neat.

Even though Xiao Lu persuaded him to think about it again and not to make a decision in a hurry, Rong Xuan's heart did not waver at all. So far, if the grievances of the Rong family could not be cleared up, how important would the mere identity be.

He just wanted to witness his enemies being slaughtered.

It doesn't matter where.

In the end, Xiao Lu agreed to his request.

brought him into the palace.

The situation in the palace was complicated. The queen mother and the queen covered the sky with their palms. Although they brought Rong Xuan into the palace, Xiao Lu did not dare to take too much care of him, for fear of causing him death.

But whenever there is a chance, he will always go over to take a look, bring something to relieve the boredom for the boy, chat with him, play chess and drink tea.

Since Xiao Lu was born, this road is destined to be full of thorns, full of blood and rain, and intrigue, but only in the youth, you can get a moment of peace of mind.

Only the place where the teenager is located is different.

He is the only pure land in his heart.

Makes him yearn.

Xiao Lu can no longer deceive himself, he likes this young man, and has been in love with him since a long, long time ago.

I love every minute I spend with him, every smile he shows to me, the way he looks at me with clear eyes... I love everything about him.

In the dead of night, when get discouraged occasionally, want to give up, and can't hold on anymore...

It's the boy's company and waiting, letting him know that he can't give up.

He can't break his promise.

He promised to avenge him.

Although they couldn't see each other every day, as long as they thought that they were in the same besieged city, Xiao Lu's heart seemed to settle down.

This thought is hidden from the bottom of heart, but can't say it.

Because now is not the right time.

The young man has suffered drastic changes, his family has been destroyed, and he lives in a corner... If he expresses his thoughts at this moment, he will inevitably be suspected of taking advantage of others' danger, which is also disrespect to his beloved.

So Xiao Lu restrained himself, just as usual, getting along with the teenager like a friend.

All he knew was that he couldn't lose.

Because of losing, everything he insists on and wants to protect will no longer exist, including his beloved teenager.

One day, the queen suddenly entertained Xiao Lu and cooked a table for him in person. Xiao Lu was very surprised and delighted.

Although she is the daughter of an enemy, this woman likes him, and in order to win, he can do whatever it takes.

Only by appeasing the queen can the general and the queen mother feel at ease with him, but to Xiao Lu's surprise, the queen accidentally mentioned his male pet, which made Xiao Lu vigilant. Although he disguised well this time, but Perhaps it still aroused the suspicion of the woman.

Xiao Lu decided to stay away from Rong Xuan temporarily, and only arranged for his confidant eunuch to watch over Gu Rong Xuan.

At this time, his planning also reached a critical moment. General Zhen Guo's unscrupulousness caused more and more people to turn to him. Dark clouds were surging under the court. Xiao Lu didn't have much time to pay attention to Rong Xuan. There are too many things to do, and when he eradicates the enemy and successfully takes power, he can be with the boy he loves aboveboard...

Finally, the day is coming.

The night before the start, Xiao Lu went to see Rong Xuan.

The young man looked a lot weaker, Xiao Lu felt distressed and blamed himself, and felt that he neglected to take care of the young man, but the young man comforted him, his eyes were bright and gentle, saying that he had always been so irrelevant...

Teenagers have always been like this.

Even if he lives in a corner of the deep palace, lonely and lonely, and his life is hard, he never has any dissatisfaction, does not make any demands of himself, is quiet, and even patiently relieves his worries when he is worried.

A person's strength lies not only in appearance, but also in heart. The young man has been using his methods to support him and help him, and let him have bright hope in his heart.

But he made him suffer.

When he was about to leave, Xiao Lu gently picked up the young man. The young man's body was thinner than before, as light as a feather. At this moment, Xiao Lu's chest was filled with astringent meaning, and some words were entangled on the tip of his tongue. Can't ask.

In the end, he just looked at the boy slowly and firmly, and said word by word: When everything is over, we will be together in an open and honest way.

When the boy heard this sentence, his eyes lit up for a moment, staring at him: Is it really going to end?

Xiao Lu said: Yes.

The young man was very happy, and a long-lost dazzling light ignited in his eyes. After a while, he seemed to realize the meaning of the second half of Xiao Lu's words, and his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.

But he did not escape, but looked at him seriously and nodded.

At this moment, Xiao Lu's heart was hot.

There is nothing more gratifying than loving each other.

Xiao Ludong-understood the young man again, with gentle eyes, solemnly took off the jade pendant he had worn for more than ten years, and carefully handed it to the young man's hands, promising word by word: I will never let you down.

wait a minute for me...

After tomorrow, I will give you a bright future and a vast world.

I want to show you all the rivers and mountains.

This is my promise to you.

Thank you for accompanying me.

Thank you for being in front of my eyes.

My journey is full of ups and downs, and it is not easy to walk, but your presence is a gift from God to me.

Xiao Lu got up and left.

He is full of ambition and hope. Tomorrow night is the time to fight to the death. When he is done, he is the real emperor who can depend on each other with his beloved.

I have waited too long for this day.

On the second day, Xiao Lu invited General Zhenguo to enter the palace for discussion on the grounds of important matters. The palace was full of people from the Chen family. General Zhenguo had been free to enter and leave the palace for nearly ten years. He had already let down his guard, thinking that he was a A cat whose minions have been beheaded will only succumb to his prostitution.

Day after day, man will let his guard down on the dangers that might otherwise occur, and fall where he thinks he is least likely to fall.

And Xiao Lu forbearance for more than ten years, but for this day.

The queen dowager was watching the dance in her palace. The servants knelt on the ground and beat her legs and peeled the grapes for her. There was fine wine on the table next to her. She was very happy to see General Zhenguo entering the palace, and greeted her brother to sit down. The two talked and laughed, and the two brothers and sisters were at ease in the palace.

It seems that they are the masters of the palace, and the emperor Xiao Lu is just a decoration.

No one paid attention to Xiao Lu.

Until countless Dolly arrows were shot, and before they could react, they shot the two into a sieve, and everything ended so unexpectedly.

When Xiao Lu walked in, General Zhen Guo still had one breath left. He opened his eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief. There was resentment, unwillingness, and incomprehensible absurdity in it. How could he just die like this.

Xiao Lu walked to General Zhen Guo step by step, looked coldly at this man who brought him countless humiliation and pain, and slowly swallowed his last breath.

From now on, no one can stop him.

He calmly instructed his subordinates to clean up the scene, and before the news came out, he arranged for his confidants to strangle the subordinates of General Zhen Guo, and in the face of the enemy, he would cut the weeds out without leaving any future troubles.

This is what you taught me.

After Xiao Lu had done all this, he finally remembered the young man and couldn't wait to tell him the good news.

Tell him, no longer have to hide from now on, no longer have to worry and be afraid from now on...

At this moment, the Queen's Fengwu Palace caught fire.

The sky is full of fire.

This doesn't make Xiao Lu feel the slightest bit moved. This woman should get the news. If she is smart, she should cut herself off. He can still give her a decent face. Now he just wants to see Rong Xuan, and everything else is irrelevant

But Xiao Lu had just stepped out of the gate of Shoukang Palace, but he saw his confidant arranged by Rong Xuan's side, kneeling in front of him covered in blood, kowtow and pleaded guilty, saying that his subordinates were not strong enough to guard, and Young Master Rong was taken away by the Queen's people .

Xiao Lu was almost blacked out, his eyes were splitting, he rushed towards Fengwu Palace without hesitation.

There was a sea of ​​fire in front of me, and the hot breath came from the surface, mercilessly engulfing everything...

Xiao Lu rushed inside without even thinking about it, his boy was still inside, he had to go in and save him, he had to go and save him...

But his subordinates stopped him stubbornly, and stopped him outside regardless of life and death.

The fire burned all day and night.

Xiao Lu staggered into the ruins and came to the main hall that had turned into a scorched earth. He saw the burnt corpse. He didn't want to believe this fact. He would rather see everything in front of him as false.

Everything was just his dream, a nightmare.

Until he saw the jade pendant with a broken corner in the hand of the corpse, even at the last moment of death, it was firmly guarded by his master in the palm of his hand, as if at the last moment, the only one who was cherished and wanted to stay s things……

Xiao Lu raised his head, as if tears were streaming down his face.

He thought he would not cry.

But it still will.

We are about to succeed.

Everything is coming to an end.

Why don't you wait for me anymore...

Just wait another day for me.

one day.

Enough.

When the time comes, I can take you out of there in person, and I will tell you with my own mouth that your revenge has been avenged, and you will no longer have to endure it. I will give you the most honorable position in the world, and I will search for famous doctors all over the world. To treat your illness, I will show you all the mountains and rivers in this thousands of miles. I still have a lot of things I want to do with you. I hope that I will have your presence in my future life...

My promise to you has not been fulfilled...

How can you just leave like this.

Xiao Lu was confused. He didn't know how he left in the end, and he didn't even know where he should go. At this moment, it seemed that all his forbearance and efforts had lost their meaning.

His subordinates captured everyone in the Queen's Palace.

The servants and eunuchs who used to pretend to be foxes and tigers were all kneeling in front of him crying bitterly. Without their masters, the sky fell. They just wanted to beg for life. No!

Only then did Xiao Lu know what Rong Xuan experienced.

It turned out that not long after Rong Xuan entered the palace, the queen summoned Rong Xuan and fined Rong Xuan to kneel for three full hours, but Xiao Lu remembered that he went to see Rong Xuan the next day, Rong Xuan was bed rest, but only said I felt a little uncomfortable with the cold, and I didn't say a word to him about the queen...

It turns out that the queen has long noticed that she has feelings for Rong Xuan.

No matter how careful she was, the queen still noticed, maybe this was the woman's intuition.

It turned out that when he didn't know it, the queen had been secretly sparring with Rong Xuan, so Rong Xuan was often sick, not because he was weak, but because he was injured all the time, but even so, he never wanted to talk to himself. These, because he didn't want to worry about it.

Xiao Lu went crazy and beheaded everyone in the Queen's Palace!

Killed it all.

Xiao Lu walked out of Fengwu Palace.

The last sword arrived - on the neck of his confidant eunuch.

This is the person he arranged to take care of Rong Xuan and deliver medicine for Rong Xuan. It is impossible for him not to know that so many things happened.

Xiao Lu's voice was hoarse, his eyes were red, and he asked: Why didn't you say it.

The eunuch knelt there respectfully, with the sword on his neck, but his expression was calm, as if he had anticipated everything today, and explained softly: Young Master Rong did not let the servants say that, he said that His Majesty was in charge of every day, and he was carrying the burden on his back. The burden is too heavy to share, so don't embarrass Your Majesty with these little things.

Xiao Lu was furious, the tip of his sword moved forward an inch, and said in a hoarse voice: So you just don't say anything!

The eunuch didn't move, but said mechanically: The slaves are entrusted by Your Majesty, and they failed to protect Young Master Rong. The crime deserves ten thousand deaths, please forgive me.

Xiao Lu's hand holding the sword was shaking.

Suddenly, he let go of his hand, and the sword in his hand fell weakly to the ground.

You really deserve death, you shouldn't let Rong Xuan be taken away, you shouldn't...

But what Xiao Lu hated the most was himself.

At this moment, with all the cruel reality in front of him, he can't continue to deceive himself, is he really unaware...

Seeing the young man's weakness day by day, watching the young man softly say nothing, why didn't he dare to ask one more question...

Why don't you dare to reveal the cruel facts.

Rong Xuan made such a choice, and his subordinates also made such a choice...

Because everyone knows it, so what if they know the truth? He can't do anything and can't do anything.

There was no room for error in the path he walked.

And myself, acquiesced to the path they chose for themselves, cowardly chose to escape, and deceived myself that nothing had happened.

As long as he succeeds, everything will be fine...

Until the words of the Queen's Palace people, word by word, like a sharp blade, stabbed in his heart, and finally showed everything he had escaped in front of his eyes, letting him look directly at the cruel truth, the original ordeal endured by the boy , much more than he imagined... Even if those people were killed, nothing could be saved.

The young man suffered so many grievances, but he swallowed all the pain alone, never complained, and only kept the last side to himself, because he knew that he couldn't do whatever he wanted, and he said this, except to make himself suffer and blame himself. any meaning...

He didn't want him to suffer, so he'd rather take it all alone.

He walked with him through the long night.

Burning his own life, just to give his heart a place to live, so that he can move on and not look back.

But he himself, let him die in the fire of Fengwu Palace, and there is no chance to make up for it.

Xiao Lu couldn't forgive himself.

He is the source of the tragic life of the youth.

If it weren't for him, the Rong family wouldn't be wiped out, Rong Xuan wouldn't succumb to the palace, and he wouldn't end up like this...

But the young man never blamed him. Before he died, he guarded the jade pendant he gave him. Was he still waiting for him to save him at the last moment...

As soon as Xiao Lu closed his eyes, he seemed to be able to see the young man calling for help, but the boundless fire was like an insurmountable moat, blocking them. He watched the young man die and was engulfed by the flames. Can't get half a step closer...

There were countless midnight dreams, and Xiao Lu questioned himself again and again, if that day, he hadn’t pushed open the door of Taolin Courtyard…

If on that day, regardless of the boy's request, he forcibly sent him out of the capital...

Will everything be different?

Unfortunately, there is no chance to choose to start over in life.

I wanted to stay for a moment of tenderness, but in the end, everything was ruined, and nothing could be left.

For one's own selfish desires, a long time of greed.

He paid a heavy price.

Fifty years have passed.

Xiao Lu has become a veritable king of prosperity, and no one can make him endure humiliation and compromise, he already has everything, but in the dead of night, helpless despair will always drown him.

He couldn't protect his loved ones after all.

is a loser.

Now that he is old, his hair is gray, and his body is weak, but the appearance of a boy in his memory will always stay in the cleanest and purest moment. He really wants to say something to the boy himself, look, I told you before. I have done all the things I have ever done. I said that I want to be a wise ruler who has the world in mind, and that this world will be peaceful, Haiyan and Heqing. I said that I will let the people have adopted sons and depend on them. I also said that I will give your Rong family a long-lasting legacy. 's reputation...

Did you see what I did?

But there is only one thing that I can't do, and that is to be with you in an open and honest way, let you accompany me, and see all the rivers and mountains.

I failed to protect you.

Make you wait too long for me.

Xiao Lu closed his eyes, he thought that his long life was finally coming to an end, but who knew that he opened his eyes again and woke up in the heavenly palace.

It turned out that he was not only Xiao Lu, the monarch of Nanyue Kingdom, but also Emperor Hualan of Heaven.

The reason for his long life is just an accidental reincarnation calamity when he retreated to enlightenment. The mere 70 years, in terms of his life span of more than 100,000 years, is just a drop in the ocean. The life of a mortal is so short. , love, hatred, anger, and madness are all like passing by, there should be nothing to be nostalgic...

As a celestial emperor and respected as a god, he should not be greedy for mortal love.

Hua Lan knew that she should let go.

He is no longer Xiao Lu, Rong Xuan has already been reincarnated, even if he persists in this, it is meaningless, but... there is a trace of regret in my heart.

Can not love, it turned out to be such a taste.

This is probably the price for his enlightenment.

As a dragon clan, Hua Lan has stood on the top of the three worlds from the beginning of its birth, and the road to becoming a god has been smooth sailing.

Maybe it was because the journey was too smooth, and if it was overfilled, there would be a shortage of the Dao, and it was impossible to go any further. Until he went to the world, he understood a lot of things that he didn’t understand before, and a lot of emotions that he didn’t understand before... …The way of heaven let him know that all beings in the three worlds have their flaws. If they don’t understand their flaws, how can they know how to cherish them. Even if you become a god, you will have something you can’t ask for.

This is what he can't ask for.

Some feelings, you can not forget if you want to forget, not if you want to let go, you can lose something when you gain something.

If you keep moving forward, you will always miss something, and these misses...will become a never-fading trace of your life.

Hua Lan went back to the mortal world and retrieved the jade pendant that was buried. After all, he was still in love.

Occasionally, Hua Lan also recalls the past in the mortal world. don't know what the young man is now and how he has lived. He couldn't help but want to investigate several times, but the young man has been reincarnated and has a new life, and may even have With a new lover, how could he force his move and destroy his reincarnation just to satisfy his own selfish desires.

He can't make the same mistake again.

You have long forgotten me.

But it doesn't matter, I still remember this memory.

Not only will this feeling not disappear with the passage of time, but it will ferment as time progresses, and it will become more and more intense like an aged wine.

Although the entrance is bitter, it is refreshing and has a long aftertaste.

Deep into the bones.

Hua Lan made a forbidden place in the Heavenly Palace. It was built according to the appearance of the Rong family in the world. The scenery was quiet and quiet. He took Wannian Chalcedony and made a puppet. He carved it by himself. Like a thousand years ago, every time I walked into that courtyard, I would say to him with a smile—

Your Majesty, you are here.

That's enough.

This is a secret no one knows.

Hua Lan will often chat with the teenager and talk to him about things outside. The teenager always listens patiently and doesn't say anything. Hua Lan knows that this is just a puppet, can't understand his own words, and can't give himself any response... But He doesn't care, thousands of years have passed, the sky and the ground, where the boy is, will always be a forbidden place in his heart that others can't touch.

So, that day he entertained the immortals, and when he realized that someone had broken into the forbidden area, he was so angry.

It was also the first time he had murdered since his return.

Hua Lan looked at the little thief who didn't have long eyes. This little thief had no idea what kind of mistake he had made.

But just as he was about to make a move, the young man slumped on the ground, looked up at him, his eyes were red, and he shouted stubbornly and restrained, Your Majesty...

He breathed for a while, fell into those clear and clear eyes, and suddenly couldn't move.

At that moment, it was as if the boy he loved was reborn in front of his eyes.
