King and General untie their battle robes

Ruan Xi looked at Bian Youli in disbelief: "Fu Qing, what did you say?"

"What?" Bian Youli looked into the distance indifferently, "Your Majesty won't allow it?"

Ruan Xiyu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "No, it's just that cremation...is always wrong. Your master, why don't you let him be buried in the grave?"

Those present never expected that Bian Youli proposed to cremate Master.In the country of Jing, this has been the most ominous consequence since ancient times, and only the most treacherous sinners will end up in this way.

Bian Youli gave Ruan Xi a steady look, then turned to Tu Qian: "Tu Zhang Si, what do you think?"

"..." Tu Qian looked around carefully, and when he met Shang Bian Youli's gaze, he couldn't hide his shock, "Young master is right."

Ruan Xi was startled when he heard the words, and looked at Tu Qian in surprise: "Tu Zhangsi, the old man looks like a highly respected person, why do you think he should be cremated?"

Tuqian cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, if it is normal, I really dare not say so. However, Mr. Bian chose the land this time, the sky is coming, the virtue of the land is on the mountain, the yin and yang are in harmony, and the five soils are prepared. If cremation , Eight Winds and Five Elements, taking advantage of metal and water, it will take away the magic power, change the destiny, and the fortune will never turn around."

Ruan Xi went around in his series of words, but he couldn't figure out why, and said directly: "You mean, it's good for you?"

"As your majesty said," Tuqian glanced at Bian Youli, and immediately continued, "I suspect that Mr. Bian chose this place, and went against the way of Fengshui, so that the old man would no longer suffer from the world. The pain of bondage."

Ruan Xi was startled, and looked at Bian Youli.

No longer suffer from the bondage of the world.

Bian Youli also turned his head to look at him. When the eyes met, he didn't say a word, but showed unshakable persistence.

Ruan Xi paused, and then told the people behind him: "Do as Mr. Bian says."

Lighting a fire is a breeze on a dry spring day.

The weather is fine, the warm wind is blowing slightly, and the roadside is dotted with wildflowers like stars, which is really beautiful.

And everyone just looked at the raging fire.

——A person like this who had a lot of ditch in his heart during his lifetime, after his death, he didn't have more visions than others, but his bones turned into ashes and disappeared in vain.

Standing in the distance, Ruan Xi watched Bian Youli's actions in puzzlement, and quietly asked Tu Qian, "Tu Zhang Si, what is he doing?"

Tu Qian also looked at the man in the distance.

The river flows eastward, rushing and never returning.I saw Bian Youli sprinkled handfuls of master's ashes among them, and his expression turned out to be calm.

Tu Qian explained in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this method of cremation is originally forbidden by Feng Shui, so it will not be hindered by supplementing it with running water."

Ruan Xi nodded and continued to look at the people by the river.

After Bian Youli sprinkled all of Master's ashes in the river, he knelt down on the ground as he watched the rushing water.

He was dressed in plain clothes, and his hair was roughly tied up, which had been loosened to cover his face.It seems that there is only one person in the whole world, kneeling on the shore alone, like a lonely swan, wandering in the pond at the end of autumn, mourning but not humble, silent but not weeping.

Tu Qian felt his sleeves being pulled, looked back, and hurriedly said, "Master Jiang."

When Ruan Xi heard the voice, he turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw Jiang Yan appearing behind him in court clothes.

"Why are you here?"

Jiang Yan made a salute: "The subject has come down to the court, there is nothing left and right, thinking that the king didn't go to the court this morning, so I went to have a look."

Ruan Xi frowned and said, "Even though it's spring, the cold still hasn't dissipated, it's better for you to recuperate in Taifu's residence."

"It doesn't matter," Jiang Yanhun said indifferently, "How about Mr. Bian?"

So the group of people looked at Bian Youli again.

Looking at the man kneeling on the ground, Jiang Yan couldn't help sighing inwardly, wondering if such a color could be tolerated by the mundane world.

But you can't let go of the things you have decided.

He said to Ruan Xi: "I see that Mr. Bian is very sad. It's good for the king to go up and comfort him."

Ruan Xi stared blankly at Jiang Yan, but he really didn't think Bian Youli showed any "broken heart" appearance.

Although at this moment, it should have been distraught.

Jiang Yan didn't change his face: "Your Majesty, go and see Mr. Bian."

Based on his long-standing trust in Jiang Yan, Ruan Xi hesitated for a moment, then walked towards Bian Youli.

When he got closer, he realized that Bian Youli was not as calm as he looked from a distance.

He knelt up straight, but his hands were propped on the ground, deeply grasping the blade of grass on one side, although it was covered with mud, he still didn't let go.

Probably because of lack of energy.

Ruan Xi looked at him, and saw in a trance a little boy in his memory, kneeling in the majestic royal tomb, everyone had left, only the flickering white candle was burning coldly, as if it was a merciless mockery.

At that time, was he also like this, he didn't have the strength to kneel down, but he didn't have the strength to move either.

I can't even remember.

I only remember that soon after the palace was full of red silk, gongs, drums, singing and dancing, another woman was ushered in with great excitement.

Ruan Xi walked up to Bian Youli, knelt down like the person beside him, lightly stroked his shoulder, and said softly, "Fu Qing, life and death are fate."

When the two of them knelt side by side, Ruan Xi finally saw the infinite sadness in Bian Youli's eyes, that emotion pierced through the nonchalant surface, a gleam of light came out, piercing his pretended calm to the point of bleeding.

Bian Youli didn't say anything immediately, but quietly raised his head to look at the sky, and after waiting for a while, he said, "I know."

Then he took Ruan Xi's hand off his shoulder, straightened his clothes, and bowed respectfully to the Tangtang River.

After three prostrations, Bian Youli fell on the ground for a long time, and finally let out a little sob.

Since Master passed away, except for occasional openings and long periods of silence, he never shed tears, and refused to cry. At this moment, etiquette has been fulfilled, and finally he could no longer bear the suppressed pain in his heart, and wept bitterly at the river carrying Master's ashes.

Ruan Xi pursed her lips and looked at him, then put her hands around his neck, gently helped him up, didn't know what to say, so she hugged him like coaxing a child.

At the beginning, Bian Youli tried his best to restrain himself, but later he fell on Ruan Xi's shoulder, unable to stop his tears.

The pain in my heart was mixed into the salty tears, but the more they flowed, the more bitter they became.

Warm tears seeped into Ruan Xi's shoulders through the material of the clothes, and he heard Bian Youli say in a hoarse voice, "From now on, I'm alone."

The sky is big and the earth is big, I am only one person left.

Ruan Xi paused, then gently patted him on the back, and coaxed him softly: "No, your master is with you in heaven, and in the future, you will meet other people who will always be with you."

After all, Bian Youli has never experienced the difference between life and death. The first encounter is the most important person in his life.He couldn't hear what Ruan Xi said at all, he just kept crying, and in the end, he didn't know whether it was from exhaustion or heartbreak, he passed out.

Ruan Xi supported him, freed one hand to call Jiang Yan who was standing in the distance, and instructed in a low voice: "Zeguang, lead the carriage over, and then send someone to call Master Qin to Linghua Palace."

After Jiang Yan left, Ruan Xi looked at the non-stop flow of water in front of him, held the person in his arms in silence for a while, turned slightly to salute, and brought Bian Youli into the carriage.

Back at the palace, Qin Zhangsi had been waiting for a long time.Jiang Yan took Tu Qian outside for questioning, while Ruan Xi watched Bian Youli in the hall.

"Qin Zhangsi," Ruan Xi finally asked, watching Qin Zhangsi inspect Bian Youli for half a day but doing nothing, "why didn't you prescribe the medicine?"

Qin Zhangsi pondered for a while, and said: "My lord, I'm afraid, it's a bit troublesome."

Ruan Xi was startled: "Could it be a difficult disease?"

"No no," Qin Zhangsi hurriedly clarified, "It's not difficult, I can manage it."

Ruan Xi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and then stared at him suspiciously: "Then what's the trouble?"

"This..." Qin Zhangsi cupped his hands in embarrassment, "It's better to wait for Mr. Jiang to come back and discuss it."

Just as Jiang Yan put his apprentice back, as soon as he entered the Linghua Hall, he saw Ruan Xi frowning at Qin Zhangsi with an unattractive look on his face.

He raised his eyebrows puzzled, stepped forward to look at Bian Youli, then turned around and asked, "Director Qin, why didn't you prescribe the medicine?"

Qin Zhangsi looked at the two of them helplessly, and explained the reason: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that Mr. Bian seems to have an old illness in his pulse, and it's very inappropriate to take medicine rashly, and it needs to be reconciled."

Ruan Xi was taken aback when he heard the words, and subconsciously looked at Jiang Yan.

Other medicines are easy to talk about, no matter how rare they are, they will not be unavailable. Anyway, these days, Ling Hua Dian has already hoarded countless treasures.

Only this Yingzhi grass is an indispensable medicine for Jiang Yan's daily life, and it should not be used lightly.He had a strange disease since he was a child, if he left Ying Zhi Cao, his life might be in danger.

What's more unfortunate is that it's hard to find half a plant of Yingzhi grass in the whole country of Jing, and only the neighboring country of Luo has it.

In recent years, Luo State and Jing State have become more and more at odds. In order to leave the medicine to Jiang Yan, Ruan Xi not only included it in the national treasury, but also stipulated that if the county can obtain the donation of Yingzhicao, the local tax can be reduced according to the amount of Yingzhicao.

It can be seen that it is rare.

When Director Qin brought up this matter, he wanted to persuade them to take Jiang Yan as the leader, but unexpectedly Jiang Yan said decisively: "There is no hesitation. Quickly open the prescription and go to the storehouse to get the medicine."

Ruan Xi immediately stopped him: "How can this be done? You..."

Jiang Yan gave him a look, and Ruan Xi immediately understood that it meant "silence".

He stopped short.

Jiang Yan continued: "Your Majesty's intentions for Mr. Bian, can't you see it? Don't talk about a few medicinal materials, as long as Mr. Bian likes it, you can tear down the treasury."

Qin Zhansi looked up in surprise, Ruan Xi forced himself to be calm, while Jiang Yan looked serious, and he couldn't see anything unusual.

He suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart, bowed and said goodbye: "I will go back to the Pharmacy Institute to get the medicine."

When there were only two sober people left in the hall, Ruan Xi finally spoke directly: "Zeguang, that Yingzhicao has no income, so you can't use it casually."

"It's just a few herbs," Jiang Yan said casually, "Your Majesty, don't worry, there are still some in the treasury, and I won't die just now."

"What are you talking about!" Ruan Xi said angrily, "You are so contemptuous of your own life?"

Jiang Yan smiled, and seemed to have a strange tone: "Don't dare, I haven't seen the king get what he wanted, so why would he risk his life?"
