Thousands of thoughts

"It's time to leave, You'er." The lonely ghost walked to Bai You's side and bent down.

"it is good."

Seeing Bai You nodding his head, Gu Gui put one hand around his neck and the other through his legs and hugged him horizontally. When he stood up, Bai You's jade hands tightly wrapped his neck around his neck.

The whole movement was done in one go, with an extremely tacit understanding, and the coordination of the limbs could not be more natural.

Everything is silent.

In the courtyard, the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, reflecting the beauty of the morning sun beyond words.But Baiyou felt that the pair of fiery red eyes in front of him were better than the apricot blossoms, like burning flames.

Burning heart.

There was a throbbing in his chest for no reason, Baiyou subconsciously covered his chest, and a hard touch from his hand made him stop.

It was the broken jade that he accidentally broke in half.

At the door, Zisu Zisu was already ready to go.With a sound of piercing horses, a burst of crisp horseshoes, accompanied by a fragrance all over the body, a group of people hurried towards the palace.

When I came to the gate of the palace again, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

The last time Baiyou came, the late emperor was still alive.The last time the lonely ghost came, he was trapped in a dungeon.Nowadays, things are different and people are different, and they have different thoughts.

When entering the palace, Bai You took the steps sent by the prince instead.However, he felt that this step was actually a bit redundant.He felt that his leg injury was almost healed, even if he walked on the ground today, he should be fine.When I woke up in the morning, I felt light and refreshed all over my body, and a rush of energy seemed to burst out of my body, but it was suppressed by something, so I could only swim around my body.

The rapid increase in mana in recent days made him faintly uneasy.

After entering the palace, the little eunuch who led the way led Bai You into the imperial study, only saying that the prince is discussing the government affairs with the ministers, so he has to wait for a while.

Ask what's the matter.

The little eunuch dodged for a long time, and then whispered: Princess Mingyou who came to marry earlier - after Miaoling tragically died in Huoyu Guoshi's mansion, Mingyou sent an envoy to ask for an explanation, but was dismissed forcefully by the crown prince.When going back to return to his life, it happened that Jingyou Crown Prince Luo Leiyu died inexplicably in a coma. The grief-stricken King Luo Chen became furious after hearing what the envoy brought back.You know, when Luo Leiyu and the national teacher Lei Luo came to visit at the beginning, they had friction with Bai You and were detained privately.Then he came back from a serious injury, and was unconscious after returning from his injury.And the national teacher who died strangely later was also said to be related to Bai You.

Full of sincerity, she let her marry Baiyou, but in the end, she died on the wedding night!And now Luo Leiyu, who has been in a coma, fell asleep and just disappeared!His national teacher and children died in the hands of the national teacher Baiyou for no reason. How could the king of Jingyou give up easily? He threatened to ask Huoyu to hand over Baiyou to apologize for his death, otherwise he would declare war on Huoyu. No hesitation.

The little eunuch carefully observed Baiyou's face while speaking affectionately.But when he found that he was talking about a lot of things, the national teacher just listened quietly, with a calm expression, as if what he was talking about was someone else and not him.

When the little eunuch finished chattering, Bai You waved his hand at him, the little eunuch understood, and retreated tremblingly.

The little eunuch said so much, but he summed it up in one sentence: Mingyou wants to kill Baiyou, if Huoyu doesn't hand over, the two countries will go to war.

In the house, it was quiet.

The lonely ghost walked up to Bai You, bent down and placed Bai You's injured ankle on his half-kneeling thigh, kneading it, and asked warmly, "Do you feel better today?"

"It's much better." Baiyou felt a little unnatural, and stretched out his hand to pull the lonely ghost up, but he couldn't pull it for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Bai You asked.

"It's nothing."

Bai You faintly felt something was wrong.

After a long time, I heard the lonely ghost say: "What are your plans?"

"It is understandable for Luo Chen to do this. Their deaths are all related to me. I will give him an explanation."

"So, let them hand you over?"

"Can't I just watch Huoyu fall into dire straits and let the person who killed Luo Leiyu reap the benefits?" No, the one who killed should be the ghost clan, who has been dealing with them in secret.

The lonely ghost paused, stopped what he was doing, opened his mouth, and finally swallowed the words "Why not?" He didn't want to break the hard-won warmth: "If this is the case, hand me over. "

"No." As soon as the words came out, Baiyou immediately vetoed them.In this way, it is tantamount to handing over the lonely ghost to those ghost clans.

"I was the one who injured Luo Leiyu and killed Miao Ling, so what has nothing to do with you." The lonely ghost rolled the corners of his eyes, half-smiling, "Besides, they can't do anything to me."

"I'm different..."

"obedient."

"Absolutely not..."

"I said it." The lonely ghost interrupted Bai You softly, "As long as it is what you want to protect, it will definitely come true."

If this is what you want to protect... I will do as you wish.

Until now, Baiyou still clearly remembers the low-pitched but helpless guilt and fear in his ears, dreaming back again and again in the middle of the night, and every time he wakes up, he feels a breathless oppressive feeling.

"No! No!! I won't allow you..."

"Brother~~~~~" With a creak, the door suddenly opened interrupting Baiyou.

The undisguised excitement in that voice short-circuited Baiyou's nerves.

"Brother!!!" Huo Mingzhao called out again, and came to the front in two steps in three steps.

Facing the handsome and mature young man in yellow robe in front of him, Bai You came back to his senses, "See the prince."

"There's no one here, bro, don't salute. Ah, this is..." When Huo Mingzhao's eyes fell on the lonely ghost squatting in front of Bai You, he felt a little embarrassed and confused, "You..."

He clearly remembered that he yelled at the lonely ghost that night: lonely ghost, if you dare to hurt brother, I will never let you go.

They used to be enemies, but now, the two are so close, Huo Mingzhu is rather embarrassed, he doesn't understand what's going on, and he doesn't know how to react.

"We..." Just as Bai You opened his mouth to explain, Gu Gui got up and interrupted him: "Talk first." Gu Gui leaned forward and said goodbye to Bai You, "I'm going around, Waiting for you at the gate of the palace." After saying that, he went out the door first.From the beginning to the end, I didn't even look at Huomingsuke.

He can remember Huo Minghua's disrespect towards him.Since the first time he left the White House, this child has been rude every time he meets him. It's time to teach him a lesson so that he doesn't respect himself as a master.

For Huo Mingzhang, Gu Gui has always defined himself as his master, it has not changed before, and it will not change now.The apprentice should apologize first if he made a mistake.There is no reason for the master to speak first, unless he does not want to recognize himself.

The logic of the ghost clan is different from that of ordinary people, and there is nothing they can do if they can't understand it.But this is not the reason for his sudden arrogance and indifference just now.

But -

After leaving the study, the lonely ghost strolled around the palace with ease.Accidentally strolled to the door of the bedroom where Huangfu Qing lived, and stopped in to have a look around, not expecting that the bedroom was full of strange swords.This bad temper has not changed at all, it is the same virtue as when he was in the heavenly court, he likes swords, searches everywhere, and makes the room everywhere, he is still self-willed.

After coming out, he felt bored, so he walked towards the inaccessible depths of the palace.

And at the end of the corners of the numerous palaces, there is a mechanism door that outsiders never know, it is the door leading to the dungeon.

Because this dungeon is specially used to detain and kill ghosts, it is also called "Ghost Killing Gate".Of course, not all ghosts will not come out after entering, there are always exceptions to everything.

For example, Wu Cang 300 years ago, or the lonely ghost with many scars.

An inexplicable sense of familiarity surged up, and Gu Gui just hooked the corners of his lips.The so-called revisiting the old place, of course, should be more decent, he adjusted his clothes solemnly, and walked forward with strides.

Until dusk approached, Baiyou finally figured out the clues for Huo Minghua.

As the crown prince, Huo Minghua basically stays in the palace and doesn't know anything about the outside of the palace. He hasn't seen Baiyou since that night. Seeing him now, he is accompanied by emotions such as excitement, excitement, confusion, and distress. Many questions were thrown up at once.

Bear the brunt of his foot injury, and then it is about the relationship between Lone Ghost from an enemy to a comrade-in-arms.This also involved the kidnapping of him and the first emperor by the ghost clan that night.Now that the first emperor was mentioned, his death, his previous illnesses, his confusing refusal to seek medical treatment, and his enigmatic will also became topics that must be discussed.

Hidden deep behind this series of questions is Huo Minghao's most concerned issue - life experience - a fact that he believed in deeply but now doubts the most.

The growing twilight outside the window made Huo Mingqian's face a bit dark gray, he stared at the cold teacup on the table in a daze, and after a long while asked again: "So, I am Concubine Xuan and... Ming You The son of the lord Luochen... son?"

There was a pause, and the voice trembled slightly.

This is already the No. 12 time he has asked.

Baiyou rubbed his forehead, feeling a little tired, but he was sure that he remembered correctly, it was indeed No.12 times.

No matter who you are, you can't accept the changes in your life experience. The child who was carefree at first was told that he was the third prince for no reason, and was taken into the palace, deprived of his freedom, and then forced to push him to the palace. The position of prince.When the boy grew up and finally persuaded himself to accept all this, his life experience changed again.I am not a third prince at all, I am an accidental existence that my mother and the ruler of another country tasted the forbidden fruit.And even if it is such an existence, it will be able to ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor in two days.And he had just received a message from an envoy sent by his own father in the afternoon - if you don't hand over the national teacher, I will destroy your country.

As soon as he knew the truth, he fell into a state of hostility with his biological father inexplicably, either you die or I live. He has no way of saying how bad this sudden feeling is.

There was only one thought in my mind, what the hell, who did I offend! ! !

It is true that Huo Mingzhang is Huangfu Qing's younger brother, and it is the child of Concubine Xuan, but it is not the child of Concubine Xuan and the late Emperor, but the son of Concubine Xuan and the Lord of Mingyou, Luo Chen.

The white tree is not called Huoming tree, but Luo tree.

It turned out that concubine Xuan, whose real name was Huangfu Xiaoxin, was good friends with Luo Chen, the lord of Mingyou Kingdom who was still the prince at that time, and the two also agreed to stay together forever. Unexpectedly, the prince at that time died suddenly, and Luo Chen suddenly became the prince. He inherited the throne.It was a good thing, but Luo Chen, who didn't want to be on the throne, gradually changed his mind. After becoming a concubine, there were three thousand beauties in the harem. His nature of liking the new and loathing the old made him forget Huangfu Xiaoxin long ago.But Huangfu Xiaoxin, who heard that Luo Chen was born, was sad and desperate, and met Huo Mingxian who came to visit Jingyou. Huo Mingxian fell in love with her at first sight, but Huangfu Xiaoxin ignored him.In desperation, Huo Mingxian had no choice but to use force, and asked Luo Chen for help after the incident.Seeing that the uncooked rice had been cooked, Luo Chen lost his impatience with that woman long ago, so it would be a good thing to use this favor in exchange for good relations between the two countries.Ming You's strength was no match for Huo Yu's, he knew it well, so he agreed.

Huangfu Xiaoxin, who was ashen-faced, was brought back to Huoyu and gave birth to a son. Perhaps God also felt that he owed her, so the second prince was born with a piece of Dragon Soul Jade in his mouth. .As soon as the child was born, Concubine Xuan said, the child must have her surname Huangfu.As soon as the news came out, all civil and military officials objected.But the first emperor Huo Mingxian agreed to this ridiculous request.Xu Shi felt sorry for this woman, and specially named her "Concubine Xuan". The word "Xuan" is intended to be mentioned by everyone and the singer is also called "Xuan".Later, the facts also proved that this woman was indeed outstanding and unique, and she assisted the emperor to lead Huo Yu to become stronger and became the concubine Xuan that everyone admired for Huo Yu.

Everyone knows that the first emperor loved Concubine Xuan so much that he even wanted to make her his empress, but Concubine Xuan refused no matter what, so the Empress Huoyu remained vacant.But everyone has long agreed that Concubine Xuan is Huo Yu's mother of a country.However, only Huangfuqing knew that Concubine Xuan was not happy.All her gentleness and virtuousness are just because Huo Mingxian, the man who once raped her, is kind to her and loves her, so she chooses to forbear and compromise.

But forbearance does not mean love.Otherwise, when she went back to Mingyou to visit relatives more than ten years ago, she would not have been entangled with Luo Chen who was already the lord of Mingyou.

Not long after returning from visiting relatives, Concubine Xuan realized that something was wrong——Bai Chuan, no, it should be Luo Chuan.Concubine Xuan knows better than anyone else who this child belongs to.She pleaded guilty to the first emperor, and the first emperor was furious when he heard about it, but after the thunder, he did not do anything to concubine Xuan, and even acquiesced in concubine Xuan's birth of Luo Qu.

The mother of one country and the lord of another country tasted the forbidden fruit, it is impossible not to be punished, and this punishment fell on Luo Qu.Not long after she was born, she contracted a strange disease and invited countless imperial doctors, but they were all helpless. Concubine Xuan fainted several times from crying.In the end, there was no other way, the old national teacher said that he had a way, maybe he could give it a try.

Thinking that the national teacher always does good deeds and contributes to the people, maybe he can wash away some of the sins that were unreasonably imposed on this child. The first emperor had only one try, and entrusted Luo Chuan to the national teacher's office. The son of the old national teacher, namely Bai He survived as You's younger brother and changed his name to Bai Qiao.

However, during the first two years of Bai Zhi's foster care in the National Teacher's Mansion, his life was extremely rough, and a slight illness could kill him at any time.In the deep self-blame of being ashamed of the kindness of the late emperor and her child suffering for nothing, Concubine Xuan soon became seriously ill and died of depression.But her death made the first emperor feel so much pain that he would not wish to live.

But in the second year after her death, the strange disease on Bai Qiao disappeared miraculously, and her health was normal.And it was also the beginning of this year that there must be a severe flood every year in the rainy season and a severe drought every year in the dry season to punish the king.

Once Concubine Xuan died, the late Emperor cherished, pampered and even indulged Huangfu Qing and Bai Chuan.

This is also why Huangfu Qing has nothing to do until now, and the emperor never said anything about him beforehand, why Bai Qiao shaved his concubine's hair for nothing in the palace last time, and he didn't care about it, and why he asked Bai You in every possible way to protect Huangfu Qing and Bai Chuan's safety .

All because he loved Concubine Xuan too deeply, but in the first meeting, he used the wrong way of loving her.

The first emperor seems to have no idea what love is.

Even before he died, he told Bai You to protect Luo Qu.

Luo Que was not the son of the late emperor Huo Mingxian, but Bai You was Huo Yu's true eldest prince, the biological son of Huo Mingxian.
