Huafa Luoyang

Qi Yun turned pale with shock, even a glance was enough for him to see that it was his elder brother Xun.

He was about to rush in again, but Mei sent a scimitar to block him, and he shouted: "Get out of the way!"

Mei Ji frowned, didn't say anything and didn't give in, just followed his extremely sharp moves like venting his anger.Doctor Liu Xian watched from the side, and said softly: "Now we just wait for Xiao Jue to come."

After Xiao Jue came, the story of this night will be written by Doctor Liu Xian.

Xiao Jin, king of Shu, rebelled, intending to kill the king and seize the throne, and Xiao Jue, king of Yan, killed him.After the rebels were put to death, King Wei was far away in the East China Sea, and later died in the cause of defending the border. The court cannot be left alone for a day, and everyone elected King Yan as emperor.

As long as Xiao Jue ascended to the throne in a righteous way, and then he will have the final say on whether he will listen to the government or die as the monarch again.

Liu Xianyi looked at the fire in front of him happily, and Mei Ji next to him didn't kill the boy, so it didn't affect his mood.

My surname is Liu, and Liu Yi is also surnamed Liu. Why should Liu Yi not be the emperor, but I have to be a grassroots person?

It would be fine if Xiao Yuan didn't do those evil deeds of extermination, but since he did it, and he survived thanks to Tianluo's blessing, this is God's will.

There is no need to suppress the things that were suppressed before, let's burn them heartily.

The general situation was clearly settled, and Qi Yun was in a state of panic. Just as he was struggling to make a move, there was a sudden sound of chaotic horseshoes in the distance.

The sound was not very audible in the fire, and he almost thought it was his hallucination.

However, after a while, an army actually rushed to the open space ahead, the leader stopped his horse, and raised a head in his hand: "The traitor Xiao Jue has been executed, let's capture him without a fight!"

Physician Liu Xian was startled, a strong wind came from behind him, and his abdomen suddenly felt cold.

He looked down to see the red-stained knife tip, and turned to see a smiling face.

As soon as Qi Yun made a move, when he saw Mei Ji raised his hand, he was ready to catch it, but he turned the tip of the knife and pointed it at Doctor Liu Xian who was beside him.

Seeing that he was approaching fiercely just now, he didn't put any strength into the moves in his hand, he couldn't hold back at this moment, and stabbed into his body from his side all at once.

Mei Ji pulled out the knife that had been lodged in Dr. Liu Xian's waist. She didn't seem to feel the injury on her side, and smiled, "Master, I'm sorry, but in this life, I hate the one who can't help himself."

Physician Liu Xian was so dumbstruck that he looked at him in disbelief.

I thought that I was the last one to gain, and I kept hiding behind the scenes, strategizing, and predicted the direction of everyone just right, and even had an illusion in my heart, thinking that the situation was being pushed forward by myself.

But he didn't expect that he was also a mortal body, and it was so easy for a blade to enter his body.

Unwillingly, he rushed forward, but Mei Ji's scimitar arrived again, aiming straight at his heart.

puff.

The sound of a knife piercing into flesh.

Next to him, Qi Yun held a scimitar that was stained with blood, and stared blankly at the scene in front of him, as if he couldn't figure out why Doctor Liu Xian died.

At this moment, Xiao Cong arrived behind Mei Ji.

Mei Ji felt the attack, but without looking back, she just stretched out her hand to send the knife forward, and let go of it neatly.Seeing Liu Xianyi's body lost its support, he fell straight to the ground.

He turned to Qi Yun, raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes sparkled, as if he wanted to say something, then he paused, and suddenly rushed forward.

Qi Yun felt the dry palm wrapped around the back of his hand, so the scimitar he was holding couldn't stop, and once again sank into the body in front of him.

The people behind stopped when they saw this, and looked at the scene in front of them, all a little confused.

Xiao Cong made a decisive decision, no longer caring about these two people, and shouted: "Extinguish the fire! Hurry up!"

Qi Yun was stunned, feeling Mei Ji's hand caressing his back, it was warm.Hearing him chuckle in his ear, he said, "I'd rather... die by your hands..."

He only felt that the body hanging on his body weighed a thousand kilograms, and his legs and feet were a little weak under the pressure, so he knelt down.

Mei Ji followed and slid down, resting her head on his shoulder.

"Qi Yun," Mei Ji murmured in a low voice, tilted her head slightly, and pressed her lips on his ear, her voice was barely audible, "I want you...to remember me forever."

Qi Yun suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He froze all over and listened blankly to the sound of breathing in his ears that stopped, propping up his body that was no longer moving, looking into the distance, but saw nothing.

He didn't notice that two people rushed out of the nearby fire scene, and he didn't hear Xiao Cong yelling "Third Brother", he just felt that the surrounding was silent, only Mei Ji's voice echoed between the heaven and the earth.

It turned out that he had already planned.

original.

"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."

"I'd rather die by your hands."

There is no need to share the blood of my heart with others anymore. The person with bloody hands is dead, but why does the heart still hurt so much?

,

The fire at the four city gates did not stop until the second day. Fortunately, the Daming Palace was always protected from water leakage, so the damage was not too serious.

The most critical issue is that Xiao Yuan died in the fire.

When Zhuang Jiuyao flew over to pull him, he was being kicked into the distance by Liu Xianyi, and then the fire ignited, and the middle road was cut off instantly, so he couldn't get over it.

At that time, he was outside the city tower, Xun Luofu found him as soon as he came in.

According to Xiao Cong, when an accident happened in the East China Sea, he and Jiang Tong rushed there together, but on the way, he received a letter from Zhuang Jiuyao, asking Jiang Tong to return to Beijing immediately.

Jiang Tong was already on the way back, but Xiao Cong received another anonymous letter, saying that the four towers of Daming Palace had been dug into tunnels and placed fire gates.

Shocked, he decided that he would rather believe it, so he marched overnight and caught up with Jiang Tong.The two changed directions, Jiang Tong went to the East China Sea, and rushed back by himself.

The spies saw the army stationed outside the city, and after some investigation, they found out that King Yan had rebelled.So he sent someone to Daming Palace to spread the news, and he lay in ambush outside the city first, catching King Yan by surprise.

In the midst of resistance, King Yan saw that the general situation was over, but the trapped beast was still fighting. Finally, when he rushed towards Xiao Cong, he was shot by Ming Qiufeng with an arrow.

All these were told by Xiao Cong to Xun Luo in front of Zhuang Jiuyao's bed.But Xun Luo only heard it, but he didn't know what it meant.

I don't want to think about it.

The person on the couch has been lying down for a long time.

Zhuang Jiuyao's injuries were actually not serious, when Xun Luo entered, he hadn't had time to rush in, and Xun Luo had vine branches of Tianluo on his body.

Only one leg was hit by a falling beam, and perhaps he was sucked in the poisonous air in the fire scene, and he couldn't wake up.

Xun Luo stayed by the side all the time, almost inseparable, only when Zhuang Jiuyao's injuries stabilized, Zhuang Ning'er persuaded him to take a bath, which was regarded as a rest.

He didn't want to leave at first, but Zhuang Ning'er said: "Brother Xun, do you want Young Master to wake up and see you like this?"

Having said that, Xun Luocai looked down, and saw that his body was covered in blood, and his clothes and robes were all torn into shape.

So he cleaned himself up very quickly, and changed into an azure robe.

When the imperial doctor came to see Zhuang Jiuyao, Zhuang Ning'er was both soft and hard, and asked the imperial doctor to look at him, only to find that he was seriously injured internally.

It is the third day.

In the morning, the redness and swelling on Zhuang Ning'er's eyes had just subsided, and she entered the room with the medicine in her hand, and called out, "Brother Xun."

Xun Luo said "um", without turning his head, he stretched out his hand to take the medicine bowl in Zhuang Ning'er's hand, drank it all in one go, put it aside, and started to stare at Zhuang Jiuyao's face again.

There was also a wound on the neck, which was half wrapped in muslin.

"Brother Xun, you haven't slept for two days, how about going to rest?" Zhuang Ning'er bent down and asked him.

Xun Luo shook her head, Zhuang Ning'er was about to say something, Qing Cheng, who was behind her, grabbed her shoulders and shook her head at her, so she sighed very lightly.

"I'm fine." Xun Luo suddenly turned around when he heard the sound, and smiled at the two of them, "It's fine. I just want to watch him wake up, I don't want him to lose sight of me."

"Thank you." He whispered, turning his head back.

Zhuang Ning'er's eyes turned red again.

In fact, Xun Luo was not tired, he was just afraid, afraid of not seeing Zhuang Jiuyao, and also afraid of closing his eyes.

Because as soon as he closed his eyes, Tianluo's face kept shaking in front of him, and he had to keep looking at Zhuang Jiuyao, throwing his whole body and mind on it.

Only by looking at Zhuang Jiuyao will he be at peace for a moment.

Qi Yun lived in the next room and was recuperating from his injuries. He came to sit for a while every day, and did not persuade him. The two of them just guarded the person on the couch, each in a daze.

I don't know how long the fire of that night will burn in the dream before it ends.

After another day, the moon has risen.

The noise that existed even without speaking during the day disappeared, and everyone went to rest.Xun Luo leaned against the couch, holding Zhuang Jiuyao's uninjured hand with one hand, and bent the other hand, resting his face on his elbow, staring at him blankly from below.

Just in time to see his firm jaw.

Xu Shi was so fascinated by it that someone touched the back of his hand lightly, but he didn't notice it in time.

After a while, he stood up abruptly.

He got up too fast and felt a little dizzy. He stared blankly at the back of his hand, and the thumb that was gently lying there did not move.

Just when he suspected that it was just an illusion, the thumb moved again.

Xun Luo suddenly held his breath, not daring to make a sound, for fear that he would scare the person on the couch, and the person would not wake up.

She just stared at his face with burning eyes.

After a long time, Zhuang Jiuyao rolled his eyes twice under his nose, Xun Luo became more and more nervous, but still didn't dare to call him.

After a while, those slender eyes that hadn't been seen for a long time moved, and finally opened a gap.

Xun Luo tensed his body, knelt upright, and waited for the reunion.

After a long time, the person on the couch finally curled up his mouth.

Eyebrows crooked.

Three days later, Zhuang Jiuyao was able to speak, but his voice was very hoarse.

It is a bit surprising that the expected chaos in the capital city did not happen these days.It seems that Xiao Cong is also very good at calming people's hearts and formulating state affairs, not just guarding borders.

One day Xiao Cong came to see him and told him that Xiao Yuan would come out after ten days.

Zhuang Jiuyao knew that he was considering his own health, and after he agreed, he said, "Thank you sixth brother, this time third brother doesn't have to be scolded for being unfilial."

Xiao Cong smiled, thought for a while, and said: "Third brother, Jiang Tong sent a letter saying that the matter at the East China Sea is not serious, and followed the clues to find out that someone is lying about the military situation."

Zhuang Jiuyao waited for his next words, and he paused for a moment before asking: "When did you say that the fourth brother and Mrs.... the second brother's thoughts started?"

"I don't know." Zhuang Jiuyao shook his head and rolled his eyes, "Your third brother is a man with ambitions in the world, and he's used to being in the wild. I'm not very interested in understanding their thoughts."

Xiao Cong nodded knowingly, and smiled again: "Speaking of Second Brother, I went to see him today, and he even asked about the throne."

"How dare he talk about the throne?" Zhuang Jiuyao smiled, "Didn't he also get hurt in the fire that night? Even if he wasn't hurt, it's not his turn to talk about it."

Xiao Cong was quiet, frowned, and said slowly: "Third brother, I heard that before the father died, he had already made an edict, and the edict was written by you..."

"No." Zhuang Jiuyao interrupted him, denying gently but firmly, "No. That imperial edict is fake, and it was deliberately used to test Seventh Brother."

The two looked at each other for a while, Xiao Cong said with a smile, "So that's how it is."

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded with some difficulty, and asked, "What do you plan to do with the second brother? And the seventh brother..."

Xiao Cong looked at him for a long time, the meaning was very obvious.

He thought about it for a while, and he didn't want to pretend to be hypocritical, so he said his plan frankly: "What the second brother said, keep him rich and not let him participate in politics. There is no need to say much about the work. The seventh brother... I think it is still extremely honorable, but the fourth brother can't do it. The officials in the Daming Palace that night knew that he was a traitor. By the way, there is also the Taiwei. Died for my Xiao family's country, it's really emotional, how about making a duke and protecting his descendants' wealth?"

In fact, these words were almost the same as what Zhuang Jiuyao thought, so he praised: "It is reasonable and reasonable."

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled.

The old year passed, and at the beginning of the new year, Xiao Cong officially ascended the throne.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, the year name should have been changed in the second year, but according to Xiao Jin, King of Shu, the old year has passed, the Xiao family has gone through catastrophe, and now the palace is too deserted, and a new atmosphere is urgently needed to get rid of it. As soon as bad luck was removed and happiness was mentioned, the new year name was immediately used.

Taking the meaning of Tiande and Xinshi, the year when Xiao Cong proclaimed himself emperor was named Qianyuan.

Before becoming emperor, Xiao Cong had guarded the border for many years. He was brave and resourceful, and kept one side safe.Later, he was brave and heroic in killing the traitor Xiao Jue.After inheriting the Datong, he worked diligently throughout his life, making the people in Dazhou live in peace, and the borders outside were peaceful.

When he was alive, the people called him salty, and after his death, all the people admired him. This generation of Mingjun was known as Emperor Wu of Zhou in history.

But that's another story.

In the first year of Qianyuan, when the grass grew and the ying ying flew in February, Zhuang Jiuyao's body finally improved greatly. After he was able to stay in the bed, he let Xun Luo support him every day, and walked back and forth in the courtyard.

On this day, Qi Yun, who had recovered for a long time, bid farewell to the two of them.

Zhuang Jiuyao was not surprised when he heard that he was leaving, but asked, "What are your plans?"

Qi Yun looked up at the locust tree with new leaves, and replied: "I don't have any plans. I should go to southern Xinjiang in the future. I heard that Xie Mu warriors have managed southern Xinjiang very well."

Speaking of southern border, the three of them were silent for a while, and Xun Luo asked, "How about setting off again tomorrow? I'll see you off tonight."

Qi Yun smiled and nodded.

After Qi Yun walked away, Zhuang Jiuyao turned to look at Xun Luo and smiled, "If you're worried, go and have a look."

Xun Luo shook his head: "I haven't received any bad news, no need."

Hearing this, Zhuang Jiuyao raised his hand to touch his face, leaned over to hang on his body, and said "I'm tired".Hearing Xun Luo's smile, he thought about it, and then asked: "Is there something unforgivable?"

A cuckoo hides among the trees, making the sound of going home.

Xun Luo was stunned, and then answered softly after a long time: "It's not that I can't forgive, God... Tian Luo has also gone, and the old things are over. It's just that I don't know how to face it."

Zhuang Jiuyao stood up and said with a smile, "Maybe we'll know when we go."
