Old City Tingzhou

The scorching sun of summer poured sunlight in from the window, and the man in brocade clothes in front of the window was not afraid of the scorching sun at all, as if standing still in front of the window.

Standing in front of the window of Yan Tingzhou's house these days.If one looked in front of the man, one would find that the man's eyes were closed, his face was expressionless, and the cold air he emitted was enough to freeze the summer heat for three feet.

"Come out." Sensing the return of a hidden guard, Xiao Cheng finally opened his eyes.Due to closing his eyes for too long, the man squinted his eyes uncomfortably, and then returned to the original state.

"Prime Minister Chen has already handed over the list, Mr. Yan is coming soon."

Swinging back the dark guard, Xiao Cheng walked out the door.

He is waiting for his return.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the young man who had just taken the imperial doctor's "poison" in the morning and went to the prime minister's mansion in the afternoon appeared in front of him, holding a roll of cloth in his hand, smiling like a flower.

"Ah Cheng, I'm back." He walked up to the man with a relaxed and happy look.

After receiving the cloth, Xiao Cheng just stood there and stared at the person in front of him, without saying a word.

Suddenly, Yan Tingzhou hugged him with both hands and kissed him.

This was the second time he took the initiative to kiss the man in front of him. He had loved and hated the man for two years.

Compared with last night's kiss, this kiss was even more affectionate and lingering.

Xiao Cheng closed his eyes, enjoying the youth's initiative.

How long has he not kissed someone so sincerely?

I don't know how long it took before Yan Tingzhou withdrew his lips, but his hands were still hugging Xiao Cheng's neck, unwilling to let go. "Ah Cheng, you said, tell me everything when I come back."

The man was taken aback, but he didn't know where to start.

Yan Tingzhou looked into the man's eyes as if he didn't care whether the other party answered or not.What is the expression in those eyes?hesitate?at a loss?Guilty?Or cold?It was so complicated, so complicated that he couldn't understand it.

When the boy was in a trance, he found himself kissing him again.There was no premeditation, no drive from the mind, he was just innocent, wanting to kiss him for the last time...

Xiao Cheng responded positively, driven by the emotion from the heart, almost completely fell into this tenderness.

But it was only dangerous.

The young man's left hand was placed behind the man's neck, and he was about to stab the knife handle in his hand, but was suddenly pushed away by the man.Yan Tingzhou did not expect it, and fell to the ground.The dark guards gathered around the mansion to protect the holy driver swarmed out, but in a short while, three sharp swords were erected on the boy's white neck.

Although he dodged in time, the man's right arm was finally scratched by the sharp blade, and the blood gushed out from the cut hole in the material, soaking the man's bright yellow clothes, and dripping onto the cloth that the boy had just entrusted to him. superior.The bright red makes people feel dazzling.

Xiao Cheng looked at the young man who was half sitting on the ground and restrained by the hidden guards. It took a long time for him to have the strength to say three words.

"why?"

Hearing this, Yan Tingzhou was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud, but his eyes were fixed on Xiao Cheng from the beginning to the end, as if he wanted to stare out a hole in the man in front of him. "Ha, what do you think? Your Majesty."

"You... When did your memory recover?"

I thought the other party would slap me mercilessly, but unexpectedly the man just asked such a question, and the ironic smile on the boy's face froze immediately.

"Last night, when I told you that your father was rebellious and asked you to help me get the list? It seems that I was really sloppy. I didn't expect that if you didn't restore your memory and want to go along with it, how could you agree so readily? !" After speaking, Xiao Cheng's tone was trembling uncontrollably, and he was completely different from the calm and calm man before.

"No, it's true that I wanted to push the boat along the way because I recovered my memory, but you guessed wrong when I recovered my memory." Yan Tingzhou didn't feel afraid of the man in front of him at all, and once again raised a mocking smile, "What do you mean?" Come here and I'll tell you, how is it?"

The man hesitated for a moment, saw the sharp sword on the young man's neck, and finally squatted down, approaching the young man.

Yan Tingzhou put his lips close to the man's ear, and whispered softly: "Of course, first of all, I would like to thank Your Majesty for the dream scene that you sent someone to play in front of us in order to win my trust. When I recovered my memory, it was in Gu Ran Neighborhood, the moment you kissed me."

At that moment, the sky was as red as a drop of blood from Gu Ran's neighborhood five years ago.

"From that moment on, every moment you spend with me, you are just acting?"

"Why aren't you?"

Hearing this, the man was in a trance for a while, only feeling that he couldn't move.At that moment, the memory came back, and then the next two days that were gluey, the next two people's tender and sweet talk and teasing, then the young man who promised to spend the rest of his life with him, the next night when the red candles were dim, and then The young man who came down and talked with him for the rest of his life after returning, was all just a show, hypocrisy?

It was just this moment of trance, when Xiao Cheng came back to his senses, he felt a stabbing pain in his neck, Yan Tingzhou had been pulled away by several hidden guards, and the man's blood still remained in his mouth.

Xiao Cheng stroked his neck with his left hand that was not holding the cloth, and his left hand was dripping with blood immediately, caring for his right arm that had been injured long ago.

He raised his head and looked at the young man who was forcibly pulled up by the dark guards, standing in front of him at this moment, the young man who was overwhelmed by the country and the city, there was only misery in his eyes. "You really hate me so much that you want to drink my blood and eat my flesh?"

The young man stared at Xiao Cheng more and more fiercely, hatred, unwillingness, and humiliation filled the young man's eyes.

"Shouldn't I hate you?"

"Five years ago, as the crown prince, in order not to be shaken for the future throne, you were worried that my father would be in power, and you would make great achievements, so you snatched the jade pendant my mother gave me, and led me to the Gu Ran neighborhood far away from the prime minister's mansion! "

"Pretended to play with me to deceive the Chen family's secret guards who were guarding me, killed them with soldiers, imprisoned me in the East Palace, humiliated and teased me every day, let my mother know that I was missing, and passed away soon after I got sick. It also caused my father to weaken [-]% of my Chen family's strength because he was exhausted physically and mentally and had no time to take care of the government!"

"Now you are even tricking me, who is so-called amnesiac, into getting a list of officials who stand on my father's side! You surrounded the prime minister's mansion just because you wanted to save my father, who has no intention of rebelling at all!"

"Xiao Cheng, for your thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, you have caused my family to be ruined! How can I not hate you, how can I not hate you?"

After the young man finished speaking, he spit out a mouthful of black blood, extremely angry.He should have said these words five years ago.Gu Ran's neighbor, the moment Xiao Cheng kissed him, he saw the faces of the two children in his dream, saw the pursuers beheading the Chen family's secret guard mercilessly behind them, and saw Xiao Cheng holding him , suddenly turned around and knocked him unconscious.He saw the bloody storm five years ago, and the mountain rain was about to come, and the building was full of wind.

He stared blankly at the bloody sky under Xiao Cheng, remembering the two years of imprisonment, humiliation and being forced to have sex, and three years ago when he escaped to Yi County, Hangzhou after a narrow escape, but lost his memory due to serious injuries.

The past is vivid in his mind, so he hates it, wishing he could peel the skin and bones of the person in front of him.But he can only endure, can only pretend, and cannot be discovered by the person on his body that his memory has recovered.

Xiao Cheng stepped forward, grabbed Yan Tingzhou's chin without mercy, and said in a icy cold voice, "You really are not an ordinary self-willed and degrading person, you hate me so much, and you still pretend to be tender and affectionate with me at all costs. Yu Zhen! Do you know that if I hadn't been busy with myself these past few years, you would have been arrested three years ago! Now that you have thrown yourself into a trap, no one in this world can save you!"

Shaking and struggling vigorously, Yan Tingzhou couldn't break free from the shackles of the man who ruled the world in front of him, but he never forgot to stare at this man with eyes full of hatred, as if he wanted to see through him.

After a long time, the boy gave up struggling, his body softened, and was firmly held by the hidden guard.He closed his eyes, he didn't want to look at this person he hated so much anymore.

The man's previous words kept echoing in his mind.

Sure enough, you are not an ordinary self-willed and humble... Self-willed and humble...

"Winner and loser, since I can't kill you, you can kill me."

Then he raised his head and neck, waiting for the man's order.

Seeing his appearance, Xiao Cheng couldn't help raising his blood-stained left hand to caress the boy's cheek.

But still stopped in mid-air.

He stepped forward, leaned into the young man's ear, and slowly and gently told the cruel truth: "The Chen family was designed five years ago, originally to consolidate my imperial career for thousands of years. Later, I just wanted to get you."

Yan Tingzhou suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Xiao Cheng, his expression full of disbelief.

Without giving the boy another chance to speak, Xiao Cheng turned around and said, "Take care of him in the sky prison, so that he can be taken care of."

Feeling that the aura of the person behind him disappeared along with the auras of several hidden guards, Xiao Cheng never turned around, but walked forward, and stepped into the house where the person had only lived for five days.

He walked slowly to the bed and sat down, not in a hurry to deal with the wounds caused by the man on his body.

"Tingzhou! Your lost memory, since it only brought you three years of lingering nightmares, it is not a good memory. Why don't you just abandon it and spend the rest of your life with me happily, okay?"

"Let's live forever, shall we?"

"Gentle your head! How gentle were you yesterday, you..."

"Tingzhou, you look so good-looking."

"Ah Cheng, I'm going to the Hongmen Banquet tomorrow!"

"Of course, I'm still waiting to come back and spend the rest of my life with you."

"When you come back from the Prime Minister's Mansion, I will tell you everything."

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng couldn't help taking a deep breath.Three days of tenderness and sweetness, in the end, it was just an empty plan, he was acting, and that person was acting, none of them were real.

Everything he said was just a sentence.He just wanted to wait for him to come back from the Prime Minister's Mansion. Since the man had forgotten all his past, and since then the dust had settled, he would also throw the past away and say that sentence to that man——

When I said I wanted to spend the rest of my life happily with you, it was true.

But I have no chance in the end. When the dust settles, I will leave the past with you and spend the rest of my life together.

The young emperor closed his eyes and felt the liquid slide down his cheeks. He stuck out his tongue and tasted the bitter taste.When he opened his eyes again, the desolation in his eyes had been replaced by calmness.

He lowered his head, and slowly unfolded the cloth in his hands that was already stained with his own blood.
