spring as old

What Qin Kun came to report was a big but insignificant matter.

The king of Runan died.

There was a wind, the windows shook, and a thin layer of window paper rustled.The news came suddenly, Wei Xiu and Pu Yang were both surprised, they looked at each other, Pu Yang said: "What's the reason?"

King Runan, the last emperor of the previous dynasty, was very embarrassed in the court.Although he is a king, he has never been to the court, and he didn't even come out of the house.In the past 19 years, Beijing and China have forgotten that there is such a person, who only occasionally mentions the former dynasty, and will live in the world's population.

His previous vigor has been exhausted, and his life and death are no longer important.But as an emperor, his life was rough.

Qin Kun looked embarrassed, but he wasn't panicked, and he didn't pay much attention to it, rather indifferently, he said to Pu Yang respectfully, "I heard that it's a sudden emergency. Your Majesty has sent the imperial physician to check it out. I think I'll know the details later."

Later, I'm afraid that's it.When the imperial doctor went to visit, most of the work was done hastily.

Once a person dies, it is a final conclusion. If he is alive, even if everyone avoids him, after his death, few people in the court would care about how he got there.In the streets and alleys, even if there is talk about it, I'm afraid it's just a gossip after dinner.The emperors of the past and the princes of the present, it is a pity that the adults talk about it.

Pu Yang looked solemnly at Qin Kun and said: "Strictly order the mansion not to discuss this matter!"

Qin Kun immediately bowed his head, his expression was suddenly solemn, completely different from Cai Cai's indifference: "Yes!"

Wei Xiu didn't speak until Qin Kun was ordered to retreat, then she looked at Puyang, her expression softened: "Your Highness always has a kind heart."

"It's just hypocrisy." Pu Yang smiled lightly, and said lightly.What she can do is nothing more than a little effort, not to mention benevolence and righteousness.

But people, most of them are unwilling to lend a hand even if they can do what they can.Wei Xiu sometimes finds it very strange that His Highness acts decisively and is definitely not a person who looks forward and backward, but she can always have a ray of kindness, and she is merciless when dealing with those who stand in the way, but she always has kindness when dealing with people who have nothing to do with her.There is no conflict between cunning and benevolence in her.

Compared with her, Wei Xiu feels that she is the one who will always live in the darkness, and Pu Yang is like the only light that draws her closer.

"One thought of benevolence will benefit the world. Looking at Your Highness, you must not forget your original intention." Wei Xiu said softly, but her heart became uncontrollably sad.

The road in Puyang was paved by her alone, and what she should serve is a wise master who can win the world, how rare is this, isn't this what scholars want in their lives?This person, Pu Yang, she fell in love with little by little. She paved the way for her future, and inevitably she would think of how high-spirited His Highness would be in the future, how she would clarify Kyushu, but at the same time she was planning to destroy her future.

Double-hearted towards the Lord, she is unfaithful and heartless!Double-minded about love, she is not worthy of love!Shaken to her relatives, she is unfilial and unrighteous!

Under Wei Xiu's gentle gaze, Pu Yang was very shy, she got up and said: "There are still some things to deal with, so I will take my leave first."

Wei Xiu suppressed the depression surging in her chest, smiled and nodded.

Pu Yang walked out quickly, and A Rong entered right after, Wei Xiu watched Pu Yang's back disappear behind the door, a sweet smell suddenly burst from her throat, and she couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood anymore.The long-term depression, long-term hatred, and long-term dilemma have hollowed out her efforts.

A Rong was shocked and was about to open her mouth to scream, Wei Xiu immediately raised her head and signaled her to silence with her eyes.

Ah Rong choked up her voice, ran forward, and wiped the bright red blood from her lips with her handkerchief.

Chest cramping, throat and mouth full of rust-like smell, Wei Xiu took a hard breath, pushed A Rong's hand away, breathing weakly: "Your Highness hasn't gone far... don't let her know."

Ah Rong's tears were about to fall, she choked up and said, "Your body..."

Wei Xiu covered her heart, her chest was filled with gloom, oppressed like a boulder, making her breathless, she shook her head, her expression was still calm, but her complexion was already as pale as paper, her lips were dry, and the pimple on her forehead Cold sweat fell drop by drop.After a while, she said, "It's okay, let me take a rest."

She was very tired and wanted to take a break, and she wanted to take a break without thinking about anything.

A Rong nodded again and again, got up and pushed her, went to the bedroom, half way, Wei Xiu suddenly remembered something, she was terrified, the pain in her heart made her eyes black for a while, but she still opened her lips, breathing weakly: "Chen Du's place, Chen Du's place, hurry...go and see!"

In a word, it took several times to say it all. She exhausted all her remaining strength, and she could hardly maintain her superficial calm.

Ah Rong understood what she said, and felt sore immediately, and hurriedly settled her into the room, Fang quickly led people to Chen's house.

Wei Xiu remembers, lying on the couch, still can't rest in peace.There was a burst of chaos in her mind, but she still tried her best to wake herself up, recalling the conversation with Chen Du that day.

He claims to be a chaste man of Zhou, but worships him as an official of Wei. The world thinks that he is trying to gain fame, and when he talks about it, he scolds him. room.Now that the king of Runan is dead, if he wants to die in martyrdom...

Wei Xiu was anxious and worried, and her mind was full of the young man who rode horses and laughed heartily with his elder brother in the frontier where the yellow sand filled the sky.I'm afraid that the young man who has become a lonely and stubborn chastity will disappear from the world.

People connected with the Zhong family died one after another, and fewer and fewer survived.Wei Xiu cherishes everyone who remembers her father and elder brother. Even if she doesn't communicate with her, she can know that there are people in this world who are like her and miss her parents and elder brother. It's good.

Once a person dies, the remaining breath becomes weaker day by day. After so many years, the person in the memory seems to have never existed, and is completely forgotten.She doesn't want to be alone, she doesn't want to struggle alone, and she doesn't want to think of what she is doing one day, only to be confused and retreat.Chen Du and her are not just an elder brother whom they knew in childhood.

The cold sweat continued on her body, and her underwear was soaked.His face was as white as transparent, his lips were bloodless, and he was so weak that he seemed about to faint and die at any time.Wei Xiu is still holding on to herself, waiting for a result.

The time is so long, it seems to be standing still.

The tightness in her chest almost made her suffocate, and her head also started to ache dullly.She persisted, letting the pain erode.

Finally, when Ah Rong came back, she looked relaxed. Seeing this, Wei Xiu heaved a sigh of relief, stood up and asked anxiously, "How is it?"

Ah Rong replied: "Mr. Chen is well. When the servant girl left, she was changing her robes, hoping that the Runan Palace would offer her condolences. He said, thank you for your kindness."

Wei Xiu felt relieved, and her headache also eased: "That's good." She asked again, "Is that all you said?"

A Rong recalled it for a while, and said: "I also said something, Mr. Chen said, I don't want to think that the person who understands him today is a gentleman who only met him once."

When Ah Rong was in Chen's residence, she was thinking about Wei Xiu, after she confirmed it, she rushed back, repeating the words now, her expression slowly changed, her relaxed smile turned into frightening panic.

Wei Xiu was swayed for a while, she grabbed A Rong's hand, tried her best to calm her mind, and said: "Prepare the car, go to Runan Palace."

"It's too late!" A Rong hurriedly stopped her and said, "When the maidservant returns, she went out with Mr. Chen." Chen's house is much closer to Runan Prince's Mansion than to Puyang Princess's Mansion.

What's more, my husband's body is no longer suitable for running around.

Wei Xiu said calmly, "Hurry up and prepare the car!"

If you don't pay attention to her face, you will only think that she is the same as usual.Ah Rong was worried that her husband would collapse at any time.

She didn't dare to disobey, and blamed herself for being too careless, her eyes filled with tears, she stood up, and when she was about to go out, a servant who went to Chen's house with her came to report: "Sir, Mr. Touch the pole and die."

The head hummed as if it had been slammed by someone.The glimmer of life was completely extinguished.Wei Xiu looked at A Rong, her gaze gradually lost, as if she lost her soul.Ah Rong hurriedly supported her and called out repeatedly.

Wei Xiu closed her eyes and fell into a faint.

Chen Du touched the pillar and died. The emperor was furious and denounced him as an ungrateful thief.However, Chen Du became famous among scholars, no one dared to talk about it loudly, but many scholars secretly admired Chen Du's loyalty.Probably affected by such a tragic event, several people were martyred immediately, causing an uproar in Beijing.

The emperor was extremely angry, and originally wanted to designate the posthumous title of King Runan as a derogatory Huang, but now he is more determined.The prime minister and a group of virtuous and benevolent ministers were in a hurry to persuade and remonstrate, but they could not ignore the people's will, and since King Yuzhang was still in Beijing, they must not let other countries see Xiao Qiang's chaos and become a laughing stock among the Three Kingdoms.The injustice of winning the country is bound to be brought up by others, and it is best to let go of one's strength at the moment, so as to show the benevolence and righteousness of the new dynasty.In the last years of the previous dynasty, the people were in dire straits, and everyone in the world still remembers it.But if they press each other again at this time, the world will pity Runan and regard the imperial court as a fake.At this time, blocking is worse than sparse.

The emperor was furious, how could he listen to it.The prime minister couldn't do it, but luckily the imperial edict had not yet been issued, and there was still time to change it, so he sent someone to invite Puyang.

Pu Yang could always touch the emperor's veins, persuaded him privately, and finally changed his posthumous title to "Sorrow" for pity.

After persuading him for a long time, it was already night when he returned home, Pu Yang wanted to ask Wei Xiu, maybe he could try to quell the people's disputes, but when he arrived at the small courtyard, he heard that Mr. Wei had already fallen asleep.

Pu Yang was puzzled: "Mr. rested early today."

When she came here, Wei Xiuduo would welcome her, even if she fell asleep in the past, she would still get up, fearing that important matters would be missed.

A Rong respectfully replied: "Sir, I have been a little tired these days, so I have nothing to do today so I will take a rest first."

It's reasonable.Pu Yang stared at A Rong, A Rong acted nonchalantly.After a long while, Pu Yang said: "I have something important to discuss, you go and invite the gentleman to come."

She is usually the most considerate of Wei Xiu and never pushes her, but today she is so pressing, A Rong is in a mess, could it be that His Highness sees something?She looked at Puyang, Puyang's expression was indifferent, and she couldn't see what he was thinking.

A Rong's heart became cruel, and she decided to take a gamble.She saluted respectfully: "Yes." She turned around and walked towards Wei Xiu's bedroom.

Pu Yang looked at her from behind, Ah Rong restrained her panic and walked steadily.The husband ordered that the princess should not know that she had already done one thing wrong, and she could not go against her husband's wishes and ruin the second thing.

Pu Yang observes A Rong's movements and her figure.

Walking to the door of the dormitory, Ah Rong raised her hand, and the princess's gaze enveloped her behind her, with such penetrating gaze that she had nowhere to hide.She steadied herself, her knuckles were about to hit the door, only an inch away, and finally a voice came from behind: "That's all."

Ah Rong finally breathed a sigh of relief, her body almost went limp.

Pu Yang looked softly at the door, where the husband was sleeping.She originally suspected that something happened to her husband, so she forced Ah Rong, now seeing that she is not afraid of anything, so she believed it.

Now that the husband has rested, don't bother her.

Pu Yang left, A Rong rushed in, they couldn't invite a doctor, they could only guard Wei Xiu closely.Walking to the bed, Wei Xiu's brows were furrowed, her lips moved slightly, and she murmured indistinctly.Ah Rong approached and bent over to listen carefully.

"Your Highness..." Wei Xiu closed her eyes, she had lost consciousness for a long time, she called out in pain and uneasiness, "Your Highness..."
