The Man Who Gave The Protagonist a Halo

Bai Xiyu accepted the edict of guilt Ji Changli gave him, but he was a little curious about what was written in it. At this moment, what is there that deserves Ji Changli's edict of guilt?

Some time ago, Dazhou was plagued by epidemics, drought and snowstorms, and the lives of the people were quite miserable. At that time, Ji Changli didn't try to save face, and made a sin against himself. Why did he think of doing these moths at this time? up.

However, in any case, it was not his turn to ask these questions. Bai Xiyu put the paper of guilt in his hands, lowered his head, and looked respectful.

The window was filled with lush greenery. Ji Changli withdrew his gaze and said to Bai Xiyu, "I won't be going to the court tomorrow. After you read it in the court hall, if you still want to resign, then go. Ask me again."

Bai Xiyu hurriedly cupped his hands and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ji Changli seemed to be smiling. He turned his head to look at a small piece of jade on his desk, and said to Bai Xiyu, "Get back."

"Yes, I will leave." The moment Bai Xiyu raised his head, he happened to see the piece of jade on Ji Changli's desk. The piece of jade had already been carved into the shape of a grown man. Bai Xiyu thought it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it. Who did he look like? He took a quick look just now, and when he wanted to take a closer look, Ji Changli's back was already in front of him.

After all, Ji Changli must have someone he likes, and Bai Xiyu didn't know whether he should be happy for him or feel sad.

In the end, he still can't let him go.

It's like so many worlds have passed, he went around, and the person he likes in the end is still him.

So, why did he send himself back to this world?Or maybe he wasn't the one who sent her here?

Bai Xiyu really couldn't figure it out, and finally sighed silently in his heart, turned around and left the imperial study with that sinful edict, and hurried back.

Bai Xiyu returned to the side room where he was resting. The other guards on duty hadn't come back yet. He was the only one in the room. Bai Xiyu felt his head hurt badly and his body was extremely tired. He lay on the bed and wanted to Take a nap, but after a long time, he still doesn't feel sleepy.

His forehead was a little hot, but his body felt cold. He presumably caught the wind and cold because he didn't pay attention to it these two days. He propped up his drowsy head, got up from the bed, and took out a thick bed from the cabinet. The quilt was put on the bed.

Feeling that this was not enough, Bai Xiyu went to the window again. The outside was full of flowers and shades of green willows. It was indeed a nice weather, but he stretched out his hands and closed the window.

He nestled on the bed, pulled up the quilt, and his whole body was covered in it.

After a long time, Bai Xiyu vaguely heard someone push the door, he frowned and opened his eyes, exerting all his energy, poked his head out from under the quilt, and found that the person who came was the person who used to be with him. The guard brother on duty together, Bai Xiyu squinted his eyes, looking like he was about to fall asleep again.

As soon as the man came in, he hurriedly walked to the table and sat down and poured himself some tea to drink. Then he put down the teacup and saw Bai Xiyu lying on the bed tightly wrapped up. Curious, he asked aloud: "Why did you come back so early today? Are you still in this state?"

"I'm getting a bit of a cold." Bai Xiyu hummed in a heavy nasal voice.

The man thought that Bai Xiyu was released by Ji Changli because of the cold, and he sighed, "The emperor treats you really well."

Bai Xiyu didn't bother to explain, his eyelids were heavy, so he closed them again.

After a while, Bai Xiyu vaguely heard the man say to him: "Do you know? Yunji was put under house arrest by the emperor."

Hearing Yunji's name, Bai Xiyu's consciousness became clearer, and he asked, "What?"

"Yun Ji was placed under house arrest by the emperor's decree." The man sighed with emotion as he spoke, "I don't know what the emperor thinks, last year because of Yun Ji's few In a word, I didn't miss the old love at all, and just killed General Bai, but the emperor turned his face again before a few months, what is the emperor thinking?"

Bai Xiyu felt that his spirit seemed to be better than before, he sat up from the bed with his head pressed, and asked, "Did the emperor tell you the reason?"

The man shook his head, "He didn't say anything, and directly sent a team of guards to surround Linfang Pavilion."

Bai Xiyu couldn't see what Ji Changli was going to do. In addition, his head was still hot, so he couldn't function flexibly. Changli's current thoughts made him lie back on the bed again, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with us, we just do what the higher-ups tell us."

The man nodded, "That's true. It's just a pity for General Bai. I don't know if His Majesty has regretted it in the end."

Bai Xiyu looked at the top of the bed, was silent for a while, and then said, "This person is dead, so what's the use of regretting it?"

"Yeah, everyone is dead..."

Bai Xiyu stopped talking, and fell asleep again after blinking his eyes twice. Once he fell asleep, he went straight to the next morning.

----

Early the next morning, the Taoist priest came to the palace again. He didn't disturb anyone, and went directly to Ji Changli's imperial study.

In the imperial study room, Ji Changli was playing with the jade figure he had carved out one by one during this period of time. The face of the jade figure and even the clothes on his body were all detailed and lifelike.

The Daoist could not bear to see Ji Changli like this, but the world is like this, although he also wanted to help them, but in the end he still had more than enough energy, so the Daoist shook the whisk in his hand , asked Ji Changli, "Is Your Majesty ready?"

"It's ready long ago." Ji Changli raised his head and glanced at Taoist Priest, with a slight smile on his face, he put the jade figure in his arms, stood up and walked outside, "Dao Come with me."

Ji Changli took the Taoist priest to the Shuangque Hall. After Bai Xiyu's death, his body was kept here by Ji Changli.

The Taoist priest glanced at the man in the jade coffin, and sighed, "Why bother, Your Majesty?"

Ji Changli also turned his head to glance at the sleeping person in the jade coffin, and after a while, he responded, "How can it be considered suffering?"

The Taoist priest didn't speak, so Ji Changli continued on his own, "Yunji came to see me that night, and I knew that what she said was not true, but I still had to kill Xiaobai as she said. ..." Ji Changli's voice gradually dropped, he seemed to be asking Chang, but also seemed to be asking himself, "What does the world have to do with me?"

The Taoist said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you are the master of the world, so you should put the common people first."

Ji Changli walked to the side of the jade coffin, looked at the people in the jade coffin, the smile in his eyes deepened, and he said, "I know, so... now it's fine."

"It's useless not to talk about it." Ji Changli turned his head and faced the Taoist priest, "Wait a while, I will trouble the Taoist priest."

He took out a small porcelain bottle from between his cuffs and handed it to the Taoist priest, "This is Lihun Pill. After Xiaobai wakes up later, the Taoist priest will give this to him."

"Pindao knows."

----

It's already past the time to go to court, and all the officials stood in the court and whispered to each other, discussing a lot, since Ji Changli was enthroned, he has never been late or early to court, why didn't he come at this hour today?

A minister guessed, "What's wrong, Your Majesty? I see that His Majesty's complexion is not very good these two days. Could it be that he is sick?"

"But I'm sick, and it's time for a palace official to tell me, what's the matter just waiting here!"

"Yes, yes. So far no one has come."

……

Just as he was speaking, someone saw Bai Xiyu walking towards the hall outside. He was wearing the uniform of a court guard, and the two knives on his waist had been removed, and he walked quickly into the hall.

As soon as the ministers saw him coming, they hurried forward to surround him and asked him, "Guard Yu, where is Your Majesty?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, when is this, why hasn't Your Majesty come yet?"

"Your Majesty, is the dragon sick?"

Bai Xiyu squeezed through the crowd and stood in front of the main hall. His typhoid fever was not fully healed, and his voice sounded a little hoarse. He said to the ministers: "My lords, please be quiet. Your Majesty handed down an imperial edict yesterday to order The next official reads it here today."

"That's good, as long as His Majesty has an explanation."

The ministers all returned to their positions and stood respectfully.

Bai Xiyu slowly unfolded the edict in his hand, stood in front of all the officials, and read the edict from Ji Changli, "It has been more than three years since I ascended the throne, but I have not been able to govern the country, and I have failed to make the people enjoy peace. One thing; disrespecting heaven, causing floods and droughts, diseases and epidemics, the second crime; and later listening to slander, killing loyal ministers, the third crime... I have no face to all people and common people..."

Ji Changli's letter of guilt was very long, and he listed twelve punishments, some of which were true and some of them false. Except for the third one, Bai Xiyu paid special attention to it, and he didn't even think about the others.

It was only later that Bai Xiyu discovered that Ji Changli's sin against himself was getting more and more wrong. The meaning behind his sin against himself was clearly saying that killing that loyal minister was against the will of God, and heaven would resurrect him. That loyal minister, and entrusted him with important tasks.

But where in the world did the art of bringing the dead back to life come from?When he was young, he and Ji Changli read a lot of strange stories and rumors, in which everything that could bring the dead back to life was nothing more than trading one life for another.

But whose life did Ji Changli want to exchange for the life of that loyal minister?

Bai Xiyu's eyes moved directly to the end of the edict. His voice paused, and the paper in his hand suddenly slipped to the ground. run outside.

Ji Changli, what have you done?

After Bai Xiyu left, an official picked up Bai Xiyu's incriminating edict that had fallen on the ground, and the purpose of entering it was the sentence: "I will pass it on to the great general Bai Xiyu."

"Your Majesty, this is... what's going on!"

"Isn't General Bai already dead?"

"This is indeed the emperor's handwriting. Could it be that General Bai has really come back to life?"

"Is it true what the emperor said in the imperial edict?"

……

Bai Xiyu ran to the imperial study room and Ji Changli's bedroom, but they couldn't find him. He gasped for breath, his eyebrows were furrowed together, he bit his lip and thought for a while, then turned his head to look at the Shuangque Temple ran.

At this time, in the Shuangque Palace, it was Ji Changli lying in the jade coffin, holding the jade portrait in his hand, turning his head to glance at the beauty lying on the bed, and asked, "Would I still Can I see him?"

The Taoist priest sighed, "If Your Majesty is determined enough, he can last until General Bai wakes up."

"Please, Daoist." Ji Changli said with his eyes slightly closed.

The Taoist pasted a few talisman papers on the bodies of Ji Changli and Bai Xiyu, then sat cross-legged between the two, clasped his hands together, and finally recited a bunch of spells that Ji Changli could not understand.

The Taoist priest frowned, and the frown became tighter and tighter. After a while, the Taoist priest withdrew his hands, stood up with a pale face, and walked to the side of the jade coffin.

In the jade coffin, Ji Changli's lips were pale, his eyes were dull, and he seemed to be dying, but he still knew that Xiaobai hadn't woken up at this time, so he opened his lips, "Taoist... But what happened?"

The Taoist gave a wry smile, "A poor Taoist can't recruit General Bai's soul."

A few birdsong came from outside the Shuangque Palace, and a few scents of flowers quietly seeped in through the window, and swayed throughout the entire palace. Ji Changli looked miserable and murmured: "Why...it's like this... "

The Taoist priest lowered his head, "I'm afraid that General Bai's soul is no longer in this world."

"Pfft—" Ji Changli spat out a mouthful of blood, his face was as pale as paper, and the bright red blood stained the jade coffin under him, like blooming red plums.

After a long time, Ji Changli looked at the Taoist priest, and slowly asked him, "He can't wake up again, is he, Taoist priest?"

"Yes." The Taoist priest nodded heavily.

"Heh..." Ji Changli suddenly laughed, "I thought... I could protect him, but it turned out that I hurt him..."

The Taoist priest hurriedly took out a few more talisman papers, and wanted to stick them on Ji Changli's body, "Your Majesty, hold on a little longer, and the poor Taoist will take your soul back into your body."

"No need, let's do it like this..." Ji Changli's eyes were empty, he no longer had any desire to survive.

A gentle breeze blew in, and the door curtains made of pearls jingled at this moment, and Ji Changli stared blankly at the sleeping person on the bed.

Daoist stood aside with his hands tied, watching the emperor's soul slowly dissipate between heaven and earth, he was powerless.

The corners of Ji Changli's mouth raised slightly.

So be it, Xiaobai, Master is sorry for you, Master will find you right away, Master is so late, I don’t know if he will find you.

noob……

Bai Xiyu finally arrived at the Shuangque Palace.

Panting heavily, he held the door frame with his right hand, and softly called out to the person in the jade coffin, "Master."

"Xiaobai?" Ji Changli's eyes moved, looking at the guard named Yu Nian standing at the door, looking at him intently.

The golden sun shone on him, he called himself, Master...
