Mrs. Zhongyi Hou's back was always straight and slightly bent, as if she couldn't bear the weight of her body, she supported it with one arm on the table.She looked at her little son kneeling in front of her, sighed, and picked up a handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face.
"You have been stubborn since you were a child. Once you decide what to do, you won't be able to pull back nine cows. You have been beaten by your father a lot for this, but you just can't change it." The old lady smiled helplessly, but that The smile disappeared quickly, and he wanted to say something but fell silent again.
In the end, she just stretched out her hand tremblingly, patted Guan Feiyue's head lightly, and said softly, "Go."
Guan Feiyue raised her head abruptly, the tears in her eyes could no longer be held back, and slid down her cheeks.
He choked up, even though he had a thousand words to say, he didn't know how to speak at the moment, so he could only bend down and bowed his head solemnly to Mrs. Zhongyihou.
Mrs. Zhongyi Hou got up to help her, but her whole body trembled, her eyes dimmed and then brightened, she woke up like a dream, when she looked again, she saw her outstretched hand, and her younger son was no longer in front of her eyes.
That night, Guan's family all had almost the same dream at the same time.
In the dream, General Guan Xiao, who had been missing for a long time, came back to say goodbye to them.
It's a dream, but it's too real. The body temperature when embracing each other and the tears when saying goodbye are still clearly left after waking up, making people feel vaguely unforgettable.
At the same time, the emperor also dreamed about Guan Feiyue, but unlike the Guan family, for the emperor, the content of the dream was not so beautiful.
Knowing that Guan Feiyue and Shen Buren had found out about the secret pursuit of longevity, in order not to expose the matter, the emperor became murderous.
After the initial search of Xiao's residence, the emperor panicked.
Over the years, how many people have been killed, the emperor has long lost count.The great achievements of the country have always been formed by the accumulation of flesh and blood, and those who achieve great things do not care about small details. To sacrifice some people whose lives are not worth much is to enhance their life value.
The Tian family is ruthless. When he was a prince, he was used to stepping on others to climb up desperately. If you want to climb higher than others, don't care how thick the bones under your feet are. Just go up and keep going up .
He finally sat in this supreme position, but the original complacency began to fade as he grew older and suffered from illness.
He finally understands that above everything is the coming old age and death.
That was what he was really afraid of.
So he began to desperately search for the method of longevity. At first it was pills and talismans, and later he sacrificed cattle and sheep, and after that, it was out of control.
For so many years, he has devoted a lot of energy to find the method of longevity, but there has been no result, and time will not stop. Every time he sees himself getting older and older in the mirror, the emperor feels fear and fear from the bottom of his heart. anger.
Until Fang Xuzi appeared in front of him.
He claimed to know the real method of longevity, and he was indeed a person with some real skills, unlike those wastes before.
There are shark beads in the East China Sea, and if you get them, you will live forever.
At the beginning, the emperor was skeptical, so he still sent people out, under the pretext of treasure hunting, but in fact, he placed cronies who were looking for shark beads in the team going to sea.
But unfortunately, this trip came to nothing.But it didn't take long for Fang Xuzi to find out that Xiao's mansion had been raising a mermaid's offspring for so many years.
This person is none other than his General Zuo Xiaowei, Xiao Zheng.
The thing he was looking for was actually right under his nose. While the emperor was furious at the Xiao family's concealment, he couldn't wait for Fang Xuzi to arrest Xiao Zheng.
But unexpectedly, Xiao Lang took the lead. Fortunately, Fang Xuzi was not some useless trash, so he snatched Xiao Zheng back when Xiao Lang's spiritual power was exhausted.
However, at this time, the capital began to become uneasy, and the development of things exceeded expectations, and the sudden change made everyone aware of it. It is not good to take any action at this time, so we can only hide people first.
I thought that the situation would calm down in a short time, but I didn't expect a troublesome person to appear suddenly at this time.
Shen Buren, a character that even Fang Xuzi would shy away from.
Originally thought that pushing everything to Xiao's house would solve this matter, but he didn't expect that another Pluto would be killed halfway.
Only then did the emperor feel truly powerless.
After all, without his dragon robe, he is just an ordinary human being who will eventually face birth, old age, sickness and death.
The emperor was lying alone in the empty bedroom, and for the first time felt that the palace was bleak and cold, making it difficult to sleep peacefully.
Finally fell asleep, but dreamed of an unpleasant scene.
That was his first kill.
How old was he then, probably twelve or thirteen years old.
A maid who had been with him since he was a child was caught poisoning his meals. He was so sad and angry that he didn't listen to the maid's pleading and explanation, and ordered her to be killed with a stick.
In the small courtyard looking out from his study, the cane punishment lasted for half an hour, and slowly killed the court lady.
He just sat in the room, listening to the maid's screams gradually disappearing from high to low.
When someone came to tell him that the maid was dead, he realized that he had been clenching his fists so tightly that his fingernails were bleeding from his palm.
He stood up, looked out the window, and saw the dead maid lying on the ground covered in blood, her head was facing the study, her eyes and mouth were wide open, as if she was very unwilling and resentful.
Her eyes were so wide open that the eyeballs protruded from their sockets, and half fell out, but because of the countless muscles and muscles connected to the dark eye sockets, they would not fall completely.
"Your Highness..."
"Your Highness..."
"Slave is so wronged! Why don't you listen to my explanation? Slave is wronged..."
She wailed in a hoarse voice, stretched out her hands that had turned into bones and clasped them on the ground, and kept crawling towards herself.
"Go away! I am the emperor, so I will do what I say! I didn't wrong you!"
The emperor was terrified. He wanted to back away, but he couldn't move, so he could only shout loudly, "Come here! Guard, guard!"
Footsteps sounded behind him, the emperor was overjoyed, and quickly turned his head to look: "Quickly kill her..."
The sound stopped abruptly, and the emperor looked at the enlarged half face in front of him, so frightened that he even forgot to breathe.
It was really half a face, only the left half, and the other side went somewhere.
The uneven wound looked like it had been sawed open by a saw. You could clearly see the bloodshot gray brain and skull inside. Half of the tongue was flicking, and there was a sound:
"Your Majesty... have you seen the other half of my brain? You ate it before, can you give it back to me? My head hurts so much, can you give it back to me?"
A pair of cold hands climbed up and caressed the emperor's forehead, digging their nails on it, as if they wanted to lift off the skull.
The emperor was speechless, and could only see more and more dead people rushing towards him through the half of his face with his eyes wide open.
His body was grabbed by countless pairs of icy hands, each of which wanted to poach some flesh and blood from him.
They were talking, shouting, howling, weeping, and screaming:
"Longevity! Longevity! Your Majesty, look, this is the longevity you want!"
"Ah...ah!"
The emperor was finally able to make a sound, but felt that his lower body was hot and humid, and he was so frightened that he lost control of himself.
"Help! Help!" He screamed helplessly, with tears and snot all over his face. After seeing countless tattered and bloody faces, his handsome and upright face desperately rushed towards that person as if grasping at a straw. shouted:
"General Guan, save me quickly! General Guan, escort me!"
But the man just stood there indifferently, watching him quietly.
The emperor felt that his body was about to be torn into pieces, and he was sweating profusely from the pain. He couldn't care less, and roared indiscriminately:
"Ai Qing, I was wrong! I immediately ordered that all the arrest warrants be withdrawn, and all the people guarding the Zhongyihou's mansion were also withdrawn! I forgive your sins, and I will give you whatever you want! You are the Grand Marshal! Reward..."
"Your Majesty," the man raised his lips and smiled, "I came back to plead guilty, why is Your Majesty so panicked?"
The emperor froze for a moment, his eyes went blank, all the voices and the scene he had just seen disappeared instantly like smoke.
Only myself, Guan Feiyue who was standing opposite, and the man in green with white hair beside Guan Feiyue were left.
The emperor looked around in a daze, thinking that the scene just now was like a dream, but the torn clothes and wet trousers all showed that what he saw just now seemed to be true.
"Your Majesty," Guan Feiyue said in a steady tone, stepping forward, "Are you alright?"
The emperor shook himself, regained consciousness, and forced himself to calm down: "I'm fine..."
After finishing speaking, he felt something was wrong again, and said angrily, "You! How did you get in?! Where's my guard? Come, come!"
"Your Majesty, don't shout anymore, no one will hear you," Guan Feiyue said, "I'm here this time just to chat with the Emperor, so don't panic."
"Bold! You intend to kill the king. You are plotting against a criminal minister. How can you trespass in the palace!" the emperor said angrily.
"Whether or not I intend to kill the king, you should know best, Your Majesty. Now that there are only the three of us, you don't have to continue acting."
"Presumptuous! You..."
Guan Feiyue was no longer impatient to listen to what he had to say, and interrupted directly: "Your Majesty, time is running out, let's first talk about the matter that you asked me to lead a group of brothers out to sea to hunt for treasure."
"What's there to say!" The emperor flicked his sleeves and wanted to leave, but found that his legs couldn't be controlled, and he couldn't move at all.
"What kind of magic did you use to me?! General Guan, for the sake of your previous military exploits, I will give you a chance to plead guilty quickly, and I won't involve the Zhongyihou's Mansion in this matter! Otherwise... ..."
"Otherwise what?" Guan Feiyue sneered, "Junior the Nine Clans? It seems that you are not very clear about the current situation..."
Guan Feiyue walked slowly in front of the emperor, slowly raised the corners of his mouth, and pressed the sharp blade of the Yinyue knife against the emperor's neck, and said softly:
"Now, the minister is giving you a chance."
"One, a chance to plead guilty."
"You have been stubborn since you were a child. Once you decide what to do, you won't be able to pull back nine cows. You have been beaten by your father a lot for this, but you just can't change it." The old lady smiled helplessly, but that The smile disappeared quickly, and he wanted to say something but fell silent again.
In the end, she just stretched out her hand tremblingly, patted Guan Feiyue's head lightly, and said softly, "Go."
