Everlasting prosperity

In the 30th year of Kangjing, Beili Kingdom——

A table of people ushered in outside Gaoping Palace, the carriages and horses stopped, and the guards waited. Slowly, a man dressed in fine clothes, holding a whisk, stepped out of the carriage and stood in front of the gate of the Palace.

At the gate of the palace, a woman was dressed in a moon-white brocade suit, with a fur cape on her shoulders, a strand of long hair tied in front of her chest, and the rest casually scattered behind her, lazily and casually.

"Eunuch Yun is here." Ji Anjun said with a smile, straightened his body.

Eunuch Yun can also be regarded as the person who watched Ji Anjun grow up. Since he was sent here, he has been the special person used by the king to look after Ji Anjun.Although his mother and concubine make it difficult for the emperor to heal his heartache, the disaster is not as good as the child, and he is the only child of the emperor's beloved, so he can't face it, but he will always send Eunuch Yun to send some things from time to time.

When he went to the palace for the first time, the prince could only walk, babbling, and looked at him curiously with his blue eyes open, not at all afraid of strangers, his smiling appearance was very much like his concubine mother.

Later, when the child grew up, he felt that this prince could see some things more clearly than anyone else.

"Eunuch Yun came three months earlier than in previous years." Ji Anjun said.He really couldn't figure out why the Yungong Guild visited at this time. In previous years, it was only twice a year, once in the new year, and once in the middle age. But this October, what is the purpose of his visit?

"King Gaoping accepts the order." Eunuch Yun stopped, took out the bright yellow brocade cloth in his sleeve, and said suddenly.

Hearing this, Ji Anjun paused, turned his head to look at Eunuch Yun, and then knelt down on his knees.

"Your Majesty has something to say: Frost is coming, and I specially ordered King Gaoping to inspect Bainiao Mountain personally to prepare for this matter. Also, King Gaoping is Wen Dexin, and he will lift the ban immediately. Hereby." Eunuch Yun thought of the emperor's decree, thinking But secretly happy for Ji Anjun.

"Thank you, Emperor!" Ji Anjun took the brocade cloth with both hands and said.

"My lord, the road ahead is steep, if you can use this old slave, just ask." Eunuch Yun looked at Ji Anjun benevolently, and said.

For so many years, there are only four or five people serving Lord Ji An in this palace, and their power can be imagined.Now, Dijun suddenly wanted to let him out, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Ji Anjun looked at Eunuch Yun, knowing what he was thinking, and nodded with a smile.

For 20 years, he lived in the palace, and he was ordered not to step out of the palace, and even sent servants in the palace to watch over him. Naturally, everyone in the court would think that there was no one available around him.But those people also forgot that people will change after getting along for a long time.

As time went by, the servant who had been guarding him treated him more and more as a poor child, and his guarding of him became more and more lax.It is also common to go out and walk around with the servants.

Ever since, there was a matter of going to Fengming Mountain alone, and meeting someone who made him fall in love with at a glance.

After Eunuch Yun conveyed his will, he left the palace in a hurry.

"Your Highness, are you going to Bainiao Mountain in the near future?" Xun Lan asked softly.

Ji Anjun glanced back at Xun Lan, and replied, "Yes."

So, does he have time to secretly go to Fengming Mountain again?

Osmanthus Bamboo Forest in Fengming Mountain——

The three members of the Xiao family who hid in Fengming Mountain back then were cut off from the secular world, and naturally gradually became timid about those festival sacrifices.Year after year, day after day, they live an ordinary life, but they are also happy.

"Yizhi, come here." Xiao Yuzhi said while opening a wooden box in his hand.

Xiao Yizhi put down the things in his hands and walked over quickly.

"This is the blood jade passed down from my Xiao family. Today, I will give it to you as a mother." Xiao Yuzhi stuffed the blood jade into Xiao Yi's hand and said with a smile.

"Blood jade? It is said that the blood jade can only be formed after hundreds of years of burial and precipitation. This..." Xiao Yizhi responded with a frown while pinching the jade in his hand.

Blood jade is the best among jades, and its forming conditions are extremely harsh.Not only is the original jade required to be a high-quality product, but the environment in which it was formed must also be a tomb accompanied by a woman. The most demanding thing is its formation time, which can only be completed after hundreds of years.Therefore, the number is very small, and it is especially precious.

Xiao Yuzhi chuckled, and said, "This blood jade was supposed to be my grandmother's burial object, and also your great-grandmother. However, the family fell down, so I had no choice but to dig this blood jade out of the ancestral grave, and I can no longer offer it. Since My Xiao Clan has fallen, so this blood jade has lost its original meaning. But it is still a treasure of this world, so I will give it to you."

"The one my mother gave is naturally the best. Then I'll go and put it away!" Xiao Yizhi said with a smile.

"Wait a minute! I want you to carry with me at all times." Xiao Yuzhi stopped him and said so.

Xiao Yizhi was a little puzzled, and while putting it in his arms, he asked, "Mother, why is this?"

"You just need to know that while jade is alive, jade is dead." Xiao Yuzhi patted him on the shoulder and replied.

Jade exists and people live, but jade dies and people die.

Xuanqing went up and down, vowing to follow each other to the death.

Xiao Yizhi looked at his mother and said nothing else. After nodding his head to express his understanding, he turned around and took the long sword standing at the door, and ran to the courtyard to practice the sword.

In the evening, he sat in the room and carefully cleaned the long sword.

This night, it was surprisingly quiet, so quiet that only the wind could be heard.

Xiao Yizhi and Wei Qi rushed out of the room almost at the same time.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yizhi frowned, a little puzzled.

What he didn't understand was that Fengming Mountain was surrounded by steep mountains and thick with fog, and he had set up traps in the Osmanthus Bamboo Forest, so how could outsiders get in here.

"Yizhi, take your wife and run away." Wei Qi tightened his body and ordered softly.

"Uncle!" Xiao Yizhi was even more puzzled.

"Come on!"

Wei Qi shouted, turned around and kicked Xiao Yizhi towards the door, at the same time, a feathered arrow flew towards Wei Qi at high speed.

In an instant, a group of men in black rushed from all directions and surrounded the courtyard.

Xiao Yizhi looked at the group of people in front of him, and his heart thumped, his mind exploded.

who are they?

But the man in black would not give them any time to think, he rushed up suddenly, raised his long sword, and killed Wei Qi and Xiao Yizhi in unison.

Seeing the man in black rushing towards him, Wei Qi raised the long sword in his hand to block the man in black who was rushing towards Xiao Yizhi, bent down, quickly grasped the hilt of the sword back, put his left foot on it, turned around, and slashed open the man in black's chest .

"Uh-"

"Go!" Wei Qi yelled at Xiao Yizhi.

Xiao Yizhi, who finally came to his senses, hurriedly stood up, rushed into the room, and looked for Xiao Yuzhi in a panic.

Xiao Yuzhi ran out of the room, grabbed Xiao Yizhi, turned back to the room, opened the window, and pushed Xiao Yizhi.

"Mother, mother! What are you doing?" Xiao Yizhi grabbed Xiao Yuzhi's arm in a panic and asked with a puzzled face.

Hearing her son's doubts, Xiao Yuzhi stopped what she was doing, looked up at Xiao Yizhi, her eyes were red, she stretched out her hand tremblingly, touched Xiao Yizhi's face, looked at him carefully, and said with a sob, "Don't Seeking revenge, live well, my mother begs you, let's go."

This was the first time in Xiao Yizhi's life that he felt flustered, and the panic made his heart ache, he firmly grasped Xiao Yuzhi's arm, said in a hoarse voice, "Mother, let me take you along, let's go together! "

"Go! You go!"

Xiao Yuzhi pushed Xiao Yizhi away fiercely, closed the window firmly, and then took the bolt to lock the window.

"Mother! Mother! Mother! Yizhi begs you, open the window! I won't go, I won't go!" Xiao Yizhi slapped the bamboo window in a panic. He didn't understand, and didn't want to understand, he just wanted to It's just running away with my mother, isn't that okay?

"Go! Don't apologize to me!" Xiao Yuzhi shouted.

Hearing this, Xiao Yizhi suddenly stopped speaking, pursed his lips, his chest hurt so badly that he couldn't breathe, wiped away tears, picked up the long sword, turned around and ran deep into the bamboo forest.

Mother, I listen to you.

Uncle, I listen to you.

I'm sorry, I'm dragging you down.

The men in black kept attacking, and Wei Qi clung to the gate of the courtyard, desperately blocking the men in black's attacks again and again.He is the dead soldier of King Gao An, the number one killer of Ghost Shadow Hall.

When the head of Ghost Shadow Hall received this appointment, it was a bit tricky.But the other party's offer was really undeniable, so, in order to deal with him, he did not hesitate to send forty killers from the top [-] list to jointly set out a mission to kill Chi and Xiao's mother and son.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry." A leading man in black said in a low voice.

Wei Qi looked at the man in black, smiled bitterly, and said, "You and I are masters, there is nothing wrong with it."

"Hmph—" the man in black swung his sword.

Wei Qi only felt a pain in his neck, so he turned his face to the sky and fell backwards.

Little prince, you must live.

When a group of people in black saw Wei Qi fall, they all looked at the leader in black.

"Rush in!"

But when the man in black rushed into the courtyard and searched every room, he realized that the target had already fled here.

"How to do?"

"You and I each bring two pairs, and search separately."

"Yes."

Xiao Yizhi, who was running wildly in the bamboo forest, became more and more angry in his heart, holding the blade of the sword in his hand, and suppressed the urge to turn back to rescue Wei Qi and Xiao Yuzhi.He couldn't turn back, and now he was no match for those men in black, but he failed the efforts of his uncle and mother.

He quickly shuttled through the bamboo forest. He was very familiar with this Fengming Mountain, but now, it became so strange.

The original tranquility around was broken by him as an uninvited guest. The birds in the bushes jumped up in surprise, and the man in black followed his trail, closely following.

He finally ran out of this osmanthus bamboo forest, but now, where is he going to run?

Suddenly, his hand was grabbed.

"follow me!"

"mother?"

Xiao Yizhi looked at Xiao Yuzhi in astonishment, he thought he thought his mother

Xiao Yuzhi pulled his wrist and ran wildly in a direction that Xiao Yizhi never dared to think about.

"Quick! In front!"

Suddenly, their footsteps stopped, and in front of them was a waterfall about a hundred feet high.

They all looked back at the same time, and a group of men in black surrounded them, from the original 40 people, to a dozen or so.

"You can't escape!" the leading man in black sneered.

As soon as the words fell, the people in black shot and threw knives at them.

Xiao Yizhi raised his long sword and tried his best to block the flying knife. He swung the long sword with his right hand and the scabbard with his left hand, firmly protecting Xiao Yuzhi behind his back.

Suddenly, a man in black walked around behind them from the side, raised his sword and stabbed at Xiao Yizhi's back.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuzhi opened her arms and let the long sword sink into her chest, protecting Xiao Yizhi tightly.

Feeling the movement behind him, Xiao Yizhi quickly turned around to catch Xiao Yuzhi, kicked the man in black down the waterfall.

"Mother! Mother" Xiao Yizhi hugged Xiao Yuzhi and called her in a panic, his eyes were red.

The men in black didn't give them a chance to breathe, they all rushed forward, trying to take the opportunity to kill Xiao Yizhi.

Seeing the man in black rushing over, Xiao Yizhi held his sword angrily, wanting to rush forward to fight him.Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuzhi stretched out her hand, pulled him hard, turned around with all her strength, and pushed Xiao Yizhi down the waterfall.

"Do not--"

He saw the way his mother looked at him, so resolute, so resolute.
