Huafa Luoyang

"How important is it?" Xun Luo asked after taking a sip of his wine slowly.

Qi Yun was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and replied, "It seems... that you are the last person in this world who depends on each other for life."

Xun Luo nodded, and asked again: "What kind of mistake?"

"It's the fault of being an enemy of the world." Qi Yun answered without any hesitation.

Xun Luo thought: "So you are asking, which is more important, the world or him?"

"No, it's not." Qi Yun replied immediately, "I will not fight against the world with him. If there is a day when he fights against the world, I will kill him for the world."

He shook his head, nodded and lowered his voice: "What I'm asking is, what should I do if he dies?"

The wind suddenly picked up outside, whistling like crying.

Xun Luo was stunned for a while when he got this answer, and said bluntly, "I don't know either."

Qi Yun half panicked and half sarcastically smiled: "Dayi cannot be violated, nor can people's hearts be violated. But I guess, I will go against my will once."

Seeing the steam in his eyes, Xun Luo couldn't help asking: "You should hate him, but why now?"

Qi Yun thought about it carefully, and answered calmly, "I don't know either."

Smile at each other.

Since there is no fruit, let's get drunk today when we have wine.

As night fell, they went back to their houses to rest, and slept until midnight, when everything was silent, but Xun Luo suddenly woke up from his dream.

After his eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, he wiped off the sweat from his forehead and carefully looked at his wrist.If there is light, you will be able to see clearly the beating blood above.

He reached out to touch it, and could almost feel the blood flowing in it.

It was too fast, the blood seemed to break through the skin at any time, causing bursts of burning pain.

He hadn't felt the same feeling for many years, it was clearly the mother worm calling for the larvae.

The panic of coming here can only show that Tianluo is not far away from him, maybe in Chang'an.And for some reason, she didn't want to use Gu worms to perceive him until now.

Xun Luo started to get lucky, but still couldn't suppress the impatience in his heart, so he sat silently in the dark, waiting for the dawn.

It wasn't until the middle of the night that I felt a little more relaxed.

I don't know when I fell asleep, and Xun Luo didn't wake up until the door knocked.When I got up, I didn't feel any discomfort, but the boredom in my heart was always there.

He opened the door and saw Qi Yun.

Xu came to knock on the door because he hadn't seen him when it was time to leave. Qi Yun looked at him worriedly: "Brother Xun? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Xun Luo reluctantly hooked the corner of his mouth.

It was a little late on the road that day.

Two days later, the two finally arrived at the outskirts of Beijing. During these two nights, Xun Luo hadn't been able to rest well, and the Gu worms became active in the middle of the night, and it became more and more day by day.

During the day, it has no effect.

This seemed to be a kind of urging, it was already late when he arrived in the suburbs of Beijing, but Xun Luo didn't want to delay.Because last time I received a letter saying that Zhuang Jiuyao was in Daming Palace every day, so I wanted to go directly to the palace.

Qi Yun also had no objection, and the two rushed to the city in one go.

Entering the city from the Qixia Gate in the south, the shortest way is to pass through the Tianmen Gate.

As a secret place, Tianmen occupies a relatively small area in central Beijing, but it is hidden in the middle of a pile of unknown houses, extremely inconspicuous.

Few people usually pay close attention to this side, even if someone pays attention, it looks like an ordinary courtyard with high walls from the outside.Those who don't know just think it's a family connected together, and those who know think it's the private property of the Holy Majesty.

Who can know who lives in it and what kind of things they are doing?

After entering the city gate not far away, seeing the Tianmen site in front of him, Xun Luo thought for a while, reined in his horse and circled around a little, wanting to pass through the wide avenue outside.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to turn onto the main road, he saw the general in charge of the curfew.

They exchanged glances with Qi Yun, but still had no choice but to turn around and enter the side alley.

Getting closer and closer to the Tianmen, Xun Luo's heart became more and more stuffy, until when he passed a small corner gate, his blood boiled instantly, and pain hit his face.

He gritted his teeth and wanted to pass the horse quickly.

It was clear that he wanted to find Tianluo, but now that Tianluo had been found, he somehow had an unspeakable premonition, and he just wanted to see Zhuang Jiuyao sooner.

But Tianluo obviously didn't think so.

The burning pain gradually dissipated, and turned into a suffocating feeling, as if being strangled by the neck, and he couldn't breathe. He knew that Tianluo was angry.

Once when he was young, he wanted to escape, but before he escaped from the capital, Tianluo had already found out, she was furious at that time, and almost killed Xun Luo by mobilizing the female insect.

It was the same feeling at the time.

Was it always inside the Tianmen?

Sitting on the horse, he couldn't stop trembling, and his body wobbled a little.Qi Yun was shocked when he saw this, and shouted: "Brother Xun!"

Xun Luo waved his hand, grabbed the rein suddenly, stopped the horse, and turned over.

"Brother Xun?" Qi Yun hurriedly got off his horse.

Supporting the wall next to him with one hand, Xun Luo turned his head to look at him, barely suppressing his emotions and mouth full of blood, and said: "Brother Qi, you go to your brother Zhuang first, and tell him about Qilian Mountain. If you can’t get in, go to the Shu Palace first, if the housekeeper won’t let you in or if the Shu king is dead, then you say you are looking for your big brother Qingcheng.”

Qi Yun hesitated for a moment, Xun Luo's voice remained flat, urging: "Go, please tell him, let him wait for me."

After a while, Qi Yun nodded fiercely, got on his horse, bowed his head to Xun Luo and told Xun Luo, "Brother Xun, be careful", and then rode his horse into the deeper part of the alley.

Xun Luo saw that the rider was absolutely dusted, so he took a deep breath, turned around and entered the corner door.

,

It was very late at night when Qi Yun arrived at the Shu Palace, he knocked on the corner door, and a servant came out and asked him who he was looking for, he answered as Xun Luo said: "Is Brother Wei Qingcheng there?"

Hearing this, the boy looked him up and down, said "wait a minute", and closed the door again.

After a while, an old housekeeper came out and said: "Young man, my prince has died, please go back."

"Old man," Qi Yun said, "I'm looking for Brother Qingcheng."

The housekeeper looked at him for a while, Qi Yun saw that he refused to let him go, and said anxiously: "Brother Xun Luo Xun asked me to come!"

Hearing the words, the butler looked around and nodded, "Follow me." He led him in, and when he went to the main courtyard, he happened to bump into Zhuang Ning'er who was holding a medicine bowl.

"Sister Ning'er!" Qi Yun called out.

Zhuang Ning'er was also overjoyed when she turned her head to see him, and quickly waved her hand, so Qi Yun hurriedly thanked the housekeeper and ran over.

Zhuang Jiuyao hadn't slept yet, the medicine bowl in Zhuang Ning'er's hand contained the medicine he had just prepared.

Seeing Qi Yun, he smiled: "Brother Qi, it's been a long time again."

"Brother Zhuang!" Qi Yun smiled. Seeing that Zhuang Jiuyao was always looking behind him, he said solemnly, "Brother Xun is behind, let me give him a message for you, Brother Zhuang."

Zhuang Jiuyao was startled, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Where did he go? What did you say?"

"We just came in from the Qixia gate in the south of the city, and we passed a large uninhabited mansion. There was something wrong with him, but he only let me go first. He didn't seem to want to say more, and I didn't ask more." Qi Yun frowned, He looked a little guilty, "He said to let Brother Zhuang wait for him."

Zhuang Jiuyao was nervous at first, but after hearing the last sentence, he was relieved, knowing that Xun Luo wanted to solve the matter in Tianmen by himself, so he didn't say much, just patted Qi Yun on the shoulder.

After Zhuang Ning'er went out, Qi Yun immediately sat down and explained the situation on the other side of Qilian Mountain in detail.

In fact, Zhuang Jiuyao had received the report before, but only now did he understand the whole process.

After listening to Hua, he was silent for a while, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "Did Fang Qin really say that before he died?"

"Yeah." Qi Yun nodded, thought for a while, and said, "He really said that Nanjiang was preserved because of a Tianluo. Brother Zhuang, this Tianluo, is her name in Nanjiang Reyi? Han?"

Zhuang Jiuyao paused, then shook his head: "I don't know. Who told you this name?"

Qi Yun frowned, and said, "Uncle Liu of Luohua Town."

Before Zhuang Jiuyao could speak, he said again: "Brother Zhuang, Liu Bo asked me to bring you a message."

Zhuang Jiuyao was a little surprised and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"He asked me to tell you that no one has ever betrayed him." Qi Yun recalled the scene at that time, and said it word by word.

"Betrayed who?" Zhuang Jiuyao was startled, "Who is he?"

Qi Yun was also a little surprised, and replied: "I don't know, Uncle Liu said that as long as I tell you, you will know."

Zhuang Jiuyao frowned tightly: "What else did he say? Where did you meet him?"

Qi Yun searched his mind carefully for a while, then shook his head and said: "I didn't say anything else. I met him on the way to Qilian Mountain. I asked him at that time. If he didn't meet me, then these words should be left to him." Who will tell. He replied that if he doesn’t meet me, it’s God’s will, so it’s also God’s will if he meets me.”

"To Qilian Mountain?" Zhuang Jiuyao pondered for a while, then asked, "Is Mi'er following him?"

Qi Yun nodded hurriedly: "Follow me, she has grown a bit taller! He said that Mi'er is tired of staying in Luohua and wants to go out for a walk."

Zhuang Jiuyao was secretly relieved when he heard the words, if Mi'er followed, then for Mi'er's sake, he should not be in any danger.

He felt that he had almost guessed Uncle Liu's identity.

He didn't let himself recognize it in Luohua back then, so he must have had his own considerations.

Right at this point, Zhuang Ning'er ran in in a panic from outside, with a trembling voice: "My lord! Something happened!"

Zhuang Jiuyao was startled, his mind suddenly exploded.

,

"waste!"

When Zhuang Jiuyao entered the Tai Chi Hall, he just heard Xiao Yuan curse, followed by the sound of something breaking, he walked in with big strides, just bumped into the Habayashi General Shi Feng who came out from inside.

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" Shi Feng hurriedly saluted and was about to leave immediately.

Just as he turned around, Zhuang Jiuyao called out from behind: "General!"

Shi Feng turned to look at him, Zhuang Jiuyao arched his hands and said solemnly: "The entire Chang'an city is in the hands of the general!"

As he spoke, he bowed, Shi Feng was startled, stepped forward two steps, and quickly helped him up: "Don't worry, my lord, I will live and die with Chang'an City!"

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded, and the two passed by.

He stepped into the hall and found all the important officials in the pavilion. He went to lift up his robe and knelt down, opened the door and met the mountain: "Father, now we have to wait for the reinforcements from the king of Wei to come to rescue. There are two ministers who can recommend me!"

Uncle Guo heard the words and interjected: "His Royal Highness, the Holy Majesty is in a state of desperation now, why are you still making trouble?"

It seems that this Uncle Guo didn't know that he was no longer in power, Zhuang Jiuyao glanced at him coldly, Uncle Guo looked anxious, and was about to say something sarcastic, Xiao Yuan shouted: "You! Shut up!"

Uncle Guo backed away awkwardly, Xiao Yuan looked at Zhuang Jiuyao: "Say it."

Zhuang Jiuyao kowtowed: "My lord, please don't be angry for the time being before I finish talking. Now that King Yan dared to openly attack the capital, he must be determined to win. It can only show that there is an internal response in the capital. Originally, the Vermilion Bird Gate is the easiest to attack. Yes, but he walked through the Xuanwu Gate, this circle, not only took advantage of our army's unpreparedness, but also conquered the most difficult gate first."

A dozen or so people around looked at him, all a little surprised, Zhuang Jiuyao pretended not to know, and said loudly: "My son begged Father to take back the troops and concentrate them outside the Daming Palace!"

As soon as this sentence was uttered, the hall exploded, and someone immediately shouted: "What is the meaning of His Royal Highness the King of Shu? Withdrawing to Daming Palace, is the entire Chang'an City handed over to make room for rebellious ministers and thieves? Dare I ask Your Highness?" What are your intentions!"
