Daomu Biji: A Thousand Faces

spring feast,

A glass of green wine and a song,

Say goodbye to Chen Sanyuan.

I wish you a thousand years,

Second, I wish my concubine to be in good health,

The three wishes are for Liang Shangyan,

See you every year...

At the spring banquet, the female actress held the piano and sang, the music was clear and melodious, and the green mountains and green waters, the flowers and trees were sparse, and it was indescribably pleasant and moving.

Today's weather is fine, sunny and cloudless.

The tedious regulations of the banquet went through one by one. The little emperor sat at the highest place, rolled up his sleeves and raised his wine glass. We raised our glasses one by one. Seeing him drinking with his head up, we poured down the glass and drank it down.

But I made an oath first, and I secretly poured the wine into the flowers and plants behind me while no one was paying attention.

The little emperor seemed to be in high spirits. After gulping it down, he threw away the wine glass, stood up all of a sudden, and said that he was about to go hunting.

The people below immediately prepared clothes for him and brought a good horse.

We naturally have to accompany.

I changed into a neat bunt, and someone brought a lot of horses for us. I randomly picked a snow-white Hequ horse from among them, and turned on my back.

A group of people quickly got ready to go, and followed the little emperor. Fu Qingci was beside the little emperor. The two rode their horses into the forest first.

Spring hunting, the little emperor doesn’t like to be surrounded by people, and he is afraid that it will disturb the prey. He wants us to go to play our own way, don’t worry about him, count the prey after the hunting is over, and pull out the head.

What's more, there are Ouchi guards following, and the shadow guards are also lurking in the dark.

Now that the Holy Majesty has spoken, everyone will split up.

I hesitated on the spot for a moment, looked at the two figures in front of me, and was about to follow up, when suddenly someone rode a horse in front of me.

A good horse, the Dawan horse bestowed by the emperor, has strong muscles, slender limbs, and a red body, like the best agate.It is said that there are only five such horses in the entire Imperial Capital.

Then look along the hand holding the rein - it's Xiao Shen.

This young man was quite heroic, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, shining brightly, and a bright smile, which made people not feel bad, "I have heard the name of General Fu as a good archer for a long time, why don't I ask Xiao to open his eyes today and pay his respects? "

I picked my lips and smiled, "Don't dare."

As he spoke, he could only ride the horse and walk side by side with him.

The prey had all been driven to the place where the little emperor was. This was something that was unspoken by everyone on the hunting ground, and there was only silence in the woods.

Xiao Shen and I wandered around for a while, but to no avail.I had to raise my head and raise my bow to the sky. Flying birds flew across the sky in an orderly manner, and some of them overlapped when turning.

I pulled the bowstring and waited for a while, then let go of my hand quickly, and then I heard only the sound of arrows piercing the wind and the wailing of birds.

Only a few minutes later, Xiao Shen also let go of the bowstring, and soon the same voice sounded.

The bird landed in response to the sound, Xiao Shen rode his horse and galloped in that direction, and came back after a while, like a gust of wind.

He held three flying birds with arrows in his hand, handed two out to me, and said with a smile, "It's better to see once than to hear a hundred times. General Fu kills two birds with one stone. It really is extraordinary."

"Just a fluke."

I looked at his warm and appropriate smiling face, and felt something was wrong in my heart.

Xiao Shen is the little emperor's favorite general, why didn't he stay by his side this time, instead he deliberately came to get close to me?

I suddenly turned my horse's head and ran in the direction I came from.

"General Fu, where are you going?" Xiao Shen called me from behind.

"I thought I saw a wolf go by there just now."

I don't know how long I have been walking through the woods, the grass gradually covered the horse's hooves, so I had to get off the horse and push through the grass, and followed the traces on the ground to find it.

The last blot seen was stained with blood.

I was startled, and hurriedly hit the horse and galloped forward.

Soon, I saw only more blood flowing and corpses strewn all over the place.

There were Ouchi guards and shadow guards in black, but Fu Qingci and the little emperor were not seen among them.

I felt the pulse one by one, how many people still had a ray of breath, I grabbed one person and asked, "Where is the Taifu? Where is the Emperor?"

He shook his head feebly, and said, "There are... assassins."

nonsense.

There was a rustle in the woods behind him, Xiao Shen came out, he was dumbfounded when he saw this scene, "This is..."

"General Xiao doesn't know what's going on?"

After a while, I waited patiently until other people arrived one after another. Seeing this scene, the Holy Majesty disappeared again, and everyone was terrified.

I had no choice but to stand up and give orders, "We will divide into four groups and search for the whereabouts of the Holy Majesty along the way in all directions. Once we find something, we will use the signal smoke we carry as a letter."

They were restless, and no one objected.

Xiao Shen followed behind me on his own.

I led a group of people to look for it to the north, holding a sword in my hand, and slashed through thorns and thorns all the way.

As we walked longer and deeper, the sky gradually darkened, and it became increasingly difficult to see clearly.

Frowning, I groped among the woods, impatiently gouged out a knife on a tree on one side.

I've probably never been so upset, happy and angry, Xiao Shen also noticed it, and came over to comfort me, "General Fu, don't worry, auspicious people have their own signs..."

I don't know that seeing this person, I just feel like adding fuel to the fire in my heart, which makes people unbearable.

I sneered, "Your Majesty is fine, so I don't know about Fu Qingci."

Xiao Shen lowered his voice, "General Fu, what do you mean?"

"Don't you know? Didn't you arrange the assassination today?"

Xiao Shen was stunned for a moment, and quickly looked around, he was relieved when no one was paying attention, and turned around to look at me, as if he was a little more guilty and impatient, "General Fu, I didn't expect it to become like this... Me and... I didn't plan like this..."

I just sneered.

It was just that the two sides were at a stalemate, and only heard a whistle sounded suddenly from a distance, and a puff of thick yellow smoke slowly rose from the already dark sky. Fortunately, it was not completely dark at this time, so it could still be seen clearly.

"The signal smoke is all red, yellow...it belongs to the Holy One." Xiao Shen was both surprised and delighted.

"Looks like they've gotten rid of the assassins..."

"But we have seen it, and those assassins must have seen it too, there is no delay, let's go."

With an order, I flew to the front.

Walking in the direction of the yellow smoke, until the smoke became lighter and weaker, and finally almost melted into the air, I finally saw... No, I smelled it first, an extremely strong smell of blood.

Walking out of the woods, before I could take a step, a cold sword was raised on my neck.

I looked up, the man was covered in blood, but it was not difficult to see the royal robe under the blood.

I hurriedly said, "My lord, it's me..."

The little emperor looked at me, his eyes seemed a little dazed, "Teacher's...brother..."

As if he realized it after he finished speaking, he grabbed me like a savior, "Come on, you, save the Tai Tuo quickly..."

I let him lead me into a very hidden cave on one side. Looking at the blood on the ground along the way, my heart sank. When I walked in, I saw Fu Qingci lying on the ground dying, right in the middle of the entrance. An arrow was stabbed straight, and half of his body was stained red with blood.

His eyes were closed, his face was like gold paper, he looked like an unconscious corpse...

I opened my mouth, remembering that the little emperor was by my side, and called him, "Brother..."

His eyelashes trembled, he opened his eyes and looked at me, and a pale smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Qing Ya, you're here."

"you……"

I stepped forward to heal his wounds, but he just waved his hands and said calmly, "Qing Ya, it's good if you come, I have something to discuss with you..."

I nodded.

He looked at me gravely, "Those assassins haven't gone far yet, they are well prepared and there are so many people, I want you to pretend to be the Holy One and lure them away for now..."

After saying this, he gave a low cough, and put his hand down into a fist, as if he thought that no one would see the blood on his palm.

The little emperor hurriedly stepped forward to support him, the blood on his body should have been stained from Fu Qingya.

He cautiously half hugged Fu Qingci, staring intently at the arrow, so it seemed that the arrow had also penetrated into his pupils, and his eyes seemed to be shattered...I slowly came to my senses, He cried.

At this moment, the little emperor seemed to be the same little emperor back then, and Fu Qingci could only rely on his young children and apprentices.

The royal family also has true feelings, right?

But only when you are about to lose it.It is too late.

Just listen to Fu Qingci's gentle coaxing words, "Si Hua, Qing Ya is very powerful, he has learned how to change his appearance in the rivers and lakes, and he can transform into your appearance, just take off the dragon robe and change it with him... ..."

The little emperor only asked, "What about you, Taifu?"

Fu Qingci did not speak.

He looked like this, probably because he was afraid of becoming Si Hua's burden.

"Fu Qingci." I called him.

He looked at me again.

"I promise you, but you must go with them."

The dragon robe is added to the body, although it is a blood-stained dragon robe, a person like me can wear a dragon robe once in his lifetime, how lucky he is.

When Si Hua's face changed, everyone else was amazed. I looked at Fu Qingci, imitating Si Hua's smile and demeanor, "Teacher..."

Fu Qingci looked at me blankly.

"looks like?"

"Like..." Xiao Shen replied.

"That's good, let's go."

Everyone was busy protecting Si Hua and Fu Qingci to leave. Fu Qingci took one last look at me and then quietly closed his eyes.

Only Xiao Shen was left standing in front of me, hesitating to speak.

I looked in the direction where Fu Qingci was leaving, and couldn't help but say something more, "Save him..."

Xiao Shen shook his head, "Don't worry, looking at the current state of the emperor, he will only rob people with Lord Yan, how can he harm others..."

well.

"You..." Xiao Shen asked, "For the sake of the Holy One? The Fu family, is it true that the family is full of loyalty and courage..."

I raised my eyebrows and smiled, a bit disdainful, but also a bit willful, "That little boy, who is he?"

Xiao Shen's expression looked very good in an instant.

I laugh out loud.

The night is getting darker, the ancient trees in the woods are towering, and the shadows of the trees seem to hide ghosts and ghosts, which is quite ghostly and gloomy.

I walked inside, walking alone, and could hear the sound of wind, insects, leaves rustling, and the sound of clothes passing by the grass...

Later, there were more voices.

coming.

I noticed them when they came.

The other party has a lot of people, and I am not an opponent.

Fu Qingci and the others... I'm afraid they haven't escaped danger yet, let alone have time to care about them.

It was clear before me that there was only one dead end.

Yes, I just do it, Fu Qingci.

He told me to pretend to be Sihua and die for Sihua. He is the Lord, and I am Qianmian, so I will not complain.

In his heart, Jiangshan Sheji and Sihua have always been more important than me.

What's more, I never care about the issue of which is more important.

All I know is that he treats me well, no one in this world has ever treated me so well, so I will repay him.

And, I believe that if he can save his life... he will come back to me.

——Thinking about it later, I only feel that I am so naive and pitiful and ridiculous.
