Pick up an abandoned child and overwhelm the world

Chong'an State, Shiping 15th year, winter

This year, the winter in Luanyang City seems to have come very early. It has already snowed several times at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. Although there is not as much snow as in the north, the cooling in the south is bone-chillingly cold. It's cold.

In a few months, under Yeluqi's control, all the original staff of the Ministry of Rites were replaced with new ones, and even the priest who was originally the abbot of the Ministry of Rites was replaced by Yeluqi with no expression on his face. The mysterious priest with the carved mask is none other than Cheng Ning!

In the past six months, to be honest, Cheng Ning has seen too many sinister people by the side of Yeluqi and Cheng Wei, and he gradually receded from his previous innocence. The way of the Shen family, but this time they did it more thoroughly. Cheng Ning used his own identity as the basis to seize all kinds of handles found by the undercover agents sent by Cheng Wei, and win over the forces that are dissatisfied with the current emperor Li Shi'an. , found the party members who had been persecuted by Li Shi'an all these years and had to endure humiliation, and controlled the generals on the border who were only willing to be sincere to the Shen family...

In short, everything is ready and only the east wind is owed!

And this east wind is on New Year's Eve.

……

According to the requirements of the Ministry of Rites for the New Year's Eve sacrifice, a few days before the New Year's Eve, the people of the Ministry of Rites will enter the palace to prepare for everything. As a priest, Cheng Ning has a series of complicated preparations before the sacrificial ceremony. Except for the three or four maids who take care of him, he can't even see outsiders until the sacrificial ceremony is completed!

The current emperor Li Shi'an didn't know if he felt that he was too bloodthirsty, so he was still very scared deep down in his heart. Therefore, every ritual ceremony was extraordinarily grand and solemn, so there appeared a solemn holy god in the palace dedicated to priests. It is not surprising that the adults pay homage to the palace where they lived before.

And right now, Cheng Ning, the priest, is the only one in the entire palace!

The sleeping palace, the hall of worship, the bathing hot spring made of white marble... Even if it is freezing outside, in this deep winter, the palace where Cheng Ning stays is as warm as spring, even if Cheng Ning is warm. You came out of the hot spring with bare feet and only a thin robe, and it was still a bit hot. After returning to the Buddhist Hall to burn incense, you didn't feel the heat anymore. Finally, the temperature was suitable.

It was said to be burning incense, but it was Cheng Ning sitting on a cushion on the ground in front of the solemn Buddha statue, and lighting some elegant incense around it. Because he was in the enemy camp, even at night, Cheng Ning was the only one in the palace. Ning is also wearing a mask, still cautious and careful, he also knows that a few days later there will be chaos, so he can't make mistakes, but he has to be more careful!

Countless candles were lit in the huge hall, illuminating the hall like daytime.

Cheng Ning sat quietly in front of the Buddha statue, even if no one was watching, he still earnestly performed the necessary rituals every night these days, but Cheng Ning knew that there were quite a few soldiers outside the hall!

The lobby is very quiet. The quiet Cheng Ning can only hear his own breathing and the faint sound of candles burning. Cheng Ning quietly looks down at the books in the water. For the difficult quietness, Cheng Ning I feel good...

"Squeak-"

I don't know how long it took, but Cheng Ning suddenly heard an extremely slight sound. Cheng Ning was startled, sat up straight and listened carefully, but he didn't hear anything. Cheng Ning thought he heard it wrong. , continue to look down at the book, anyway, there are many soldiers outside, who can break in?

But "Puff, puff, puff——" followed by countless puffs, which not only appeared extremely clear in the hall, but also dimmed the light quickly. Cheng Ning woke up suddenly and turned his head to look around. , I saw that the countless candles around me were being quickly extinguished from which corner, which direction, and in what way, and the entire lobby became less and less lit. It got darker and darker, Cheng Ning knew that someone broke in, and he was still a master!

Immediately, Cheng Ning was so nervous that he couldn't control himself, his palms were sweating nervously, and after seeing a black shadow passing by in the corner, Cheng Ning scolded coldly: "Who dares to be so presumptuous?"

"Puff" was another sound of candles being extinguished. In just a few short breaths, Cheng Ning realized that the candles that were still lit in the Buddhist Hall were less than one-tenth of the original. There were still some scattered lights around him, except for the other places around him, all fell into darkness, and Cheng Ning was in the center of these bright lights. It made Cheng Ning stiff in place and did not dare to act rashly. No matter how panicked he was, he did not dare to show a trace of abnormality on his face, because he suddenly remembered a more serious problem. He lived alone in this palace, and Cheng Wei arranged it. There are hidden guards, but now... what's going on?

Everyone has rushed in front of him, but what about the hidden guards?

The hidden guard did not dedicate his life to stop this sudden danger, did the dark guard also have an accident, or...

"It's me..." Just as Cheng Ning's forehead was dripping with cold sweat and he was thinking wildly, a familiar low-pitched male voice came from behind the pillar, and then a figure came out from behind the pillar.

"Wei, Wei'er?" Cheng Ning looked at the person who came out in shock. It was Cheng Wei. Cheng Ning was startled for a moment, but then finally understood what was going on. He let out a long breath and sat down. He couldn't even get up on the mat, looked at the person standing in the shadow by the pillar and said, "Why are you here?"

Cheng Wei didn't answer Cheng Ning's words in time, and didn't come out immediately, but still stood quietly by the pillar, as if he was looking deeply at Cheng Ning...

"What's the matter with you?" Keenly aware of something wrong with Cheng Wei, Cheng Ning asked suspiciously, and was about to stand up...

"Is something wrong, sir?" A soldier's inquiry suddenly came from outside the door: "Why did the candles go out so much suddenly? Are you okay, sir? Do you need us to come in and light the candles for you? Or ..."

"No need!" Cheng Ning hurriedly stopped, and said to the direction of the door: "I'm fine, but I think it's too bright and a bit wasteful, so I turned off some, you don't need to come in, I'm fine, I'm going to sleep later Come on, don't let anyone in!"

How could the soldiers outside the gate doubt what the highest and most mysterious priest in Luanyang City said?

"Good priest!" The soldier at the door naturally agreed respectfully and immediately.

After reassuring the soldiers outside and making sure that they would not come in, Cheng Ning finally heaved a sigh of relief, looked away, looked at Cheng Wei who was still standing in the shadow and said with a smile: "Where have you been these few days? Why did you come here suddenly today?" Looking for me? What's the matter? I...Wei'er?" "Puff puff puff" Before Cheng Ning could finish speaking, Cheng Wei in the shadow waved out many candles, leaving only Looking at the three candles on the incense table in front of the tall Buddha statue in front of Cheng Ning, the illuminated area is now smaller, and even Cheng Ning felt that his eyes suddenly became darker, making him even more unable to see Cheng Wei over there. , Cheng Ning, who was about to stand up, felt a little uneasy in his heart, gave up the idea of ​​standing up, looked at Cheng Wei who finally came from the shadow, looked at him worriedly, and called: "Wei'er, you... What’s wrong with you?"

Cheng Wei walked to Cheng Ning's side step by step, looked down at Cheng Ning, who had been looking up at him, his eyes were full of worry, Cheng Wei slowly squatted down, knelt down in front of him, stretched out his hand and gently He took off the mask that blocked his face and threw it aside, so that he could see his face more clearly...

"What's wrong with you today? What happened?" Sensing that something was wrong with Cheng Wei, Cheng Ning was even more worried. As he spoke, the brows frowned, and he stretched out his hand to pull Cheng Wei's skirt, and asked with some dissatisfaction: " you've been drinking?"

An intoxicating smell of alcohol came to his face, Cheng Ning smelled it when he was just approaching!

"Well, I drank a little..." Cheng Wei said in a low voice, completely out of his normal spirit, with his head slightly lowered, and kept looking at Cheng Ning quietly until he couldn't bear it any longer and stretched out his hand gently. She caressed Cheng Ning's cheek, pressed her forehead gently against his, and continued to whisper: "I miss you, so... I came to see you, I really want to see you today, I really want to see you very much think……"

The two were next to each other, and Cheng Ning subconsciously wanted to push Cheng Wei away, but in the dark, Cheng Ning found that Cheng Wei's expression was very broken, with a hint of heart-wrenching brokenness, how did Cheng Ning do this?

There is no doubt that something happened to Cheng Wei, but what happened to him can be solved by himself, and Cheng Ning doesn't need to worry about it, so Cheng Ning didn't force him to ask, but just let him caress his cheek, let him He put his forehead against his forehead... Finally, and even worse, Cheng Ning was afraid that Cheng Wei would feel that he had neglected him, so he reached out his hands gently on Cheng Wei's shoulders, coaxing him softly: "No matter what happens, don't worry, I will always be by your side..." After a pause, she whispered, "Always by your side!"

Suddenly wondering if Cheng Ning had provoked Cheng Wei, Cheng Ning was stunned for a moment, even the hand touching Cheng Ning's cheek stopped, and he said in a low hoarse voice: "Cheng Ning, this is what you gave I promise!"

"..." He felt that something was wrong, but Cheng Ning felt that as his father, he still lowered his eyes and said firmly with a slightly hot cheek: "Yes, I promised you!"

"Cheng Ning..." Cheng Wei called out to him in a hoarse voice, then raised his head and looked straight into Cheng Ning's eyes, put one hand on his shoulder and the other on his lips, saying word by word : "I hope you remember that I am Cheng Wei. In this life, in the next life, in the next life, I will always be by your side, I will always find you, and I will always... fall in love with you!"

"What...well, you..."

After Cheng Wei finished speaking, he kissed Cheng Ning's lips directly, and then he suppressed Cheng Ning violently, no longer suppressing the longing for many years, while madly kissing the person he had been thinking about day and night, With both hands, he tore open the thin clothes on his body, avoiding Cheng Ning's panicked eyes, and ignoring his fragile struggle, so that he finally became his own...

what happened?

A tearing pain came from somewhere, giving Cheng Ning a bit of clarity in the forced madness. Not far away, the solemn Buddha statue illuminated by three candles suddenly reflected into Cheng Ning's place. The corners of his eyes were reddened with mist, and Cheng Ning woke up in an instant. He... in front of the Buddha statue of the Holy God, in the solemn Buddhist hall, as a priest, was actually... Cheng Wei...

"No, don't..." Cheng Ning was held in Cheng Wei's arms, his voice struggling: "Wei'er, no, we... can't do this, I'm your father, Wei'er..."

Cheng Wei didn't speak, even the clothes on his body were not messed up much, but he hugged this thin body even more frantically with his red eyes, satisfying the huge desire that had been suppressed for many years like a bottomless abyss.

"Wei'er, listen to me, um..."

Before Cheng Ning wanted to continue choking on his sobs, Cheng Wei took the time to lift Cheng Ning's chin impatiently, and kissed his lips again, sealing all his sobs and painful sobs. Hugging tightly, wishing to rub this person into the depths of his own flesh and blood, never to be separated again, imprisoned by his side forever, no one can separate them again.

The Buddha statue with a smile on one side looked at the crazy entanglement on the ground with a benevolent smile, as if he had seen through the ending...
