This is what he saw after Kangxi led his people back to the murderous forest without hesitation, ignored the dissuasion of others, and rushed back to the sea of ​​flames by himself.

——The child who was always lively and bright was sitting quietly among the corpses, his face was as pale as those dead people.That still childish face did not have the caring smile of the past, but a calmness that was almost relieved. There was a dazzling blazing fire in his eyes, but it seemed that he was not looking at anything, only staring blankly. In a trance.

Kangxi turned over and got off the horse, only to feel that his legs were suddenly weak. He staggered and rushed over to protect the child tightly in his arms, calling softly with a trembling voice: "Little Wu...Little Wu, look at Ama, Ama will take you back now..."

Huang Tianba, who rushed in after him, saw the situation in front of him, but his eyes were almost red with anxiety.The fire here is already burning extremely fiercely, if this person is asked to delay like this, I am afraid that everyone will have to stay here, waiting for everyone to burn into a piece of coke together.

Immediately, he didn't care too much, barely covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, grabbed the father and son pair fiercely and threw them onto the horse, and slapped the horse's butt: "It's not the time to talk, go!"

With his lightness of body, it is not too difficult to get in and out of the flames.When he was about to follow out, his eyes suddenly passed over the crossbow in one of them, he subconsciously picked it up and stuffed it into his arms, kicked it several times along the unburned wood and stone, and then flipped it lightly and deftly onto the waiting area. The horse outside.The crowd was here to save people, and the murderer didn't see him, but the fifth elder brother was carried out by the Lord Long Live himself. Naturally, there was no reason to stay, and they just spread out to protect Kangxi and others to go first. Get out of this sea of ​​flames.

Yin Qi only felt that the temperature around his body seemed to be cooling down gradually, and he seemed to be on something that couldn't stop bumping, and couldn't rest for a moment, and moved in a trance, and couldn't tell whether it was an illusion or reality for a moment.His mind was exhausted to the extreme, and he tried to frighten those desperadoes time and time again, relying on the intense pain when his inner force violently shook his heart to keep him awake.At this moment, I was suddenly enveloped by the familiar warm breath, I felt that every inch of my body was desperately clamoring for fatigue, and I couldn't wait to sink into the peaceful darkness.

"Huang Ama..."

He tried his best to move his lips, but he could no longer make a sound. It was as if a bloody light curtain had been shrouded in front of his eyes, and even the figure was blurred.Subconsciously raised the corners of his lips, bent his brows and eyes, and wanted to raise his arms to hug the man's neck, but he couldn't continue after he lifted it halfway, and fell back dejectedly, and his consciousness finally fell into a quiet darkness. .

In the last few breaths before he passed out, Yinqi couldn't help but smiled bitterly in his heart——by heaven, this time, he really didn't pretend...

-

This sleep was not at all restful. For a while, he dreamed of the red lotus karma all over the sky, and for a while, he dreamed of four headless corpses screaming at him with their teeth and claws.It's just that every time he is surrounded by fear, it seems that there is a hand firmly protecting him, holding his hand tightly and leading him out of this despair, and waving those horrible dreams again and again , and plunged him back into a comfortable and peaceful sleep.

I don't know how long it took, but I finally felt that I had enough rest.Lazily turned over, opened some heavy eyelids, and met a pair of bloodshot eyes.He was very familiar with the shape of those eyes, but the deep worry and self-blame inside made him seem a little strange, and his heart seemed to be slightly astringent.

"Xiao Wu'er...was awake? But what else is uncomfortable?"

Kangxi had been guarding him for a day and a night, seeing that he finally opened his eyes, he felt that the boulder pressing on his heart was finally slightly removed, and he gently stroked his forehead.Yinqi knew that he was just fainted from choking and exhaustion, but he was not injured at all, and he was fine when he woke up. He shook his head with a smile and got up and said, "My son is fine... Huang Ama , what happened to your hand?!"

The following words were full of surprise and surprise, and really got a little angry-he took his old nose to send his troubled Huang Ama out safely!How did this go through so much trouble, that he was able to injure both hands like this when he wasn't looking at it for a while?

"It's not your stubborn horse - it's really a master-like horse, I really regret how I gave it to you!"

It was fine if he didn't ask, but Kangxi couldn't hold back his anger when he asked, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "I even tore off the rein of that horse, and it won't stop—" Do you know that I just watched you stay in the fire, and my heart is so tormented that I wish I could kill you! If something happens to you...how can I have the face to be the king of this country again!"

He yelled in fright and anger, looking at this son who seemed to be yelled at by himself, Kangxi immediately felt regretful, tried his best to calm down the anger, gently hugged Yinqi in a low voice Said: "Xiao Wu'er... I'm not losing my temper at you, I'm - I'm really scared..."

After speaking, his voice was a little hoarse, and the image of the child lying lifelessly in his arms appeared in front of his eyes again. Kangxi only felt that his chest was so tight that he couldn't breathe, and subconsciously closed his arms tightly again. A little more: "Stupid child... I am your Ama, I should be protecting you. How old are you - how dare you risk your life to save this one and that one again and again? I never thought that if you What happened to you, how should I deal with myself..."

"Huang Ama forgot? My son can see 'that'."

Yinqi suddenly bent his eyebrows, raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears that a generation of kings should not have shown in front of others, and then put his hand on his chest: "My son can see clearly—as long as this red light I haven't found my son yet, this life can still be kept, guarding Huang Ama all the time..."

"That's not okay... I'm still afraid."

Kangxi shook his head, hugged him and sat in his arms, took the porridge on the table beside him, stirred it slowly by himself, and fed another spoonful to his mouth: "You child , there are too many people pretending in your heart, and too many things pretending. You pretend too much, and you don’t even leave any room for yourself... But haven’t you thought about it? If you were injured, something happened , How much pain should I feel in my heart, your master, your mother-in-law, and your brothers, what kind of torment should it be for the empress dowager?"

Yin Qi was startled, subconsciously took a mouthful of porridge and chewed slowly, his expression suddenly became a little dazed.He suddenly remembered the time when he intentionally shook his heart - if he hadn't been sure that Kangxi would feel distressed, how dare he use this self-harm method to torment the prince?It turns out that without knowing it, so many people are already worried about him?

Finally, belatedly, I realized that I was no longer alone, and there seemed to be something heavy on my shoulders, but it didn't make people feel hard at all, on the contrary, it was so warm that people couldn't help but want to cry.Yinqi sniffled, lowered his head embarrassingly to hide his tears, but Kangxi smiled and gently turned his face away, hugged the son on his chest and patted him gently: "What's there to be ashamed of, I don't care Just cried? In this world, there is no one who will not be wronged or sad - you are such a young child, and you are at the age when you should act like a baby. , just cry out in one go..."

Are you wronged?Yin Qi thought blankly, instinctively wanted to refute, but didn't know where to start.In his previous life, he never stayed for anyone. He looked so chic and at ease, but only he knew it in his heart. Every time he went back to that empty house, he felt the fear and loneliness of being unattached—but at that time, he, But it has long been impossible to restore the ability to trust others and human nature.

Abandoned by his biological parents, betrayed by a brother who grew up in an orphanage, and thrown away with disgust by a respected teacher like a piece of mud, he has already suffered too much from the coldness of human relationships and the coldness of the world.Every step of climbing back to the top is trembling like walking on thin ice. He has already learned that he can live well on his own. He has long been accustomed to exchanging kindness with the kindness of performances, and gaining affection through hypocritical feelings.Along the way, even he himself didn't know whether he had ever failed someone's sincerity, and whether he had ever regarded a certain sincere goodwill as a cold exchange, as his hypocritical spoils.

But now, his father hugged him tightly and said to him——if there is any grievance, cry out.

Not wronged... He is not wronged...

Tears scrambled out, and broken sobs came from his throat.Clutching the clothes on the man's chest, he curled up and trembled uncontrollably - such an extremely strange feeling of being a son hiding under the protection of his father, it almost made him shiver uncontrollably.He seemed to have finally realized thoroughly that the person in front of him was his father, not the dean of the orphanage, and he didn't need to care about the ruthless and most important family of the emperor. Willful, a father that he can rely on.

Even—just for this moment...let him believe it.The sleepless nights one after another, the trembling and coldness when being drowned out by scolding every time, the uneasiness and fear when facing everything alone, the overwhelming loneliness when winning everything back—— The hesitation and exhaustion, loneliness and fear of this life are fully vented through this indulgence.

In this world, is there really someone... who won't feel wronged?

Kangxi hugged his son quietly all the time, watched him let go of all his defenses in his arms little by little, watched him finally let himself cry out of breath, and watched him tremble slightly The small body that was stretched, and the tears that could not stop sliding down that still childish face.He obviously just woke up and was very tired, but his hands were still tightly clutching his clothes, as if he was afraid of being left behind and rejected again, and he refused to relax for a moment.

In fact, he clearly remembered that this child put his life in his own hands time and time again without any precautions, sympathized with his own difficulties time and time again, and swallowed again and again. All the grievances and losses.He still remembered the cold and resolute voice of the child when he heard the truth told by the dying imperial concubine—in the face of those cruel truths, the child's response turned out to be "so what".

A child who is obviously so afraid of loneliness and being left behind, but at such a critical moment, he did not hesitate to push him away from the dangerous place, and faced those fierce killers and desperate crises alone - he didn't know this It takes a lot of courage, but Kangxi's heart seems to be pulled hard by the protection that he risked his life for. He feels sore and painful, but he is also completely stuffed by that more determined mind. It is so full that there is almost no room for any other thoughts.

He wants to protect this child well, make him wanton, make him self-willed, make him say when he has a grievance—so that one day he can completely trust himself, and ask him for everything he wants with confidence.

This is his son.

This time the crisis was silently dissipated like this, and the external declaration was still just an accidental wildfire, but the strict guards had silently and completely sealed Yanshan out.Qiu Xi was still going on, Liang Jiugong, who was buried by the corpse, was lucky enough to recover his life, and ran to Yinqi's tent with tears in his eyes to thank him for his kindness, but his eyes were swollen from crying yesterday The fifth elder brother who picked up Taozi was beaten out without any explanation in shame and annoyance.

——What a shame!

Yinqi squatted in his own tent depressedly, hugging Liuyun's neck to seek comfort - what a good horse, it should be sensible when it goes up, it will be sensible and not willful, and it doesn't need to be coaxed when it comes down, and it knows how to lick Looking at his face, blinking his eyes and silently caring whether he was injured, chewing his hair along the way, mildly condemning this excessive behavior of leaving itself to meet the enemy.It's not like that stupid bird, who yelled "chirp, chirp" at him as soon as he was domineering, and pulled his sleeves for meat without heart, and didn't look at him now How can I get out of the tent.

"Master—it's okay, I can't really tell..."

Tanlang picked up the curtain and came in, persuading him in a low voice, and carefully placed the prepared meals on the table for him.Liufeng didn't like cooked meat, he jumped over and babbled a few times, only to feel extremely dissatisfied, angrily slapped the plate of meat to the ground with his hands, and protested loudly at Yinqi: "Chirp! Chirp!"

"Okay, chirp chirp chirp." Yin Qi was so annoyed by it that he pinched his arm and picked it up, and threw it out of the tent, "Anyway, your hair is all grown, go find something to eat by yourself!"

Liu Feng tilted his neck, took two steps on the ground, and suddenly flapped his wings and rushed straight to the sky.Yinqi finally heaved a sigh of relief, and watched Lian Zhen who was following behind, preparing fodder for Liu Yun with great interest, but couldn't help but said in astonishment: "Lian Zhen—don't tell me that you healed that dead horse , and healed the feelings..."

"Returning to the young master, it is not a horse at all, it is at best a pile of horse meat."

Lian Zhen responded casually, still squatting on the ground trying to please Liu Yun, but it's a pity that Liu Yun has always been unwilling to talk to anyone other than Yin Qi, although he was quite satisfied with the fodder he had prepared, but just ate it with his head buried in it, without any concern. He held out a friendly hand.Greedy Wolf couldn't help chuckling, put his hand on the ground and put the meat aside, and said with a smile: "The day the master fell asleep, Lian Zhen and I picked up that horse—that horse meat. , and ran all over the hunting grounds to find similar ones for comparison. Lian Zhen seems to have developed a lot of interest in raising horses..."

"..." Yinqi closed his mouth in resentment, looking worriedly at himself, a hidden guard who majored in medicine, and suddenly couldn't help feeling that he seemed to have trained a veterinarian by accident...

"It's just that the previous incident was too dangerous. Next time, master, don't go out by yourself. No matter what, you should take one or two with you. Jumen and Wenqu are both very good at hiding, and anyone else will find out No, if the master doesn't think they are in the way, I'd better bring some insurance."

Seeing that Yinqi was in a better mood, Tanlang took the opportunity to try to persuade him again.Although not very clear about what happened yesterday, Yinqi was carried out of the fire scene by Kangxi himself. He and Lian Zhen could see it clearly—now that they have recognized the Lord, their most important mission is naturally to protect Yinqi. For the safety of this little master, if something like this happens again, they might as well just commit suicide and apologize.

"I'll ask back to see if I can give you some formal identities." Yin Qi was unexpectedly easy-going, nodded and sat at the table, then took the handkerchief from Tanlang and cleaned his hands, " By the way, I'm not in the mood to go out here...how is it being circulated outside now?"

"It's as if nothing like that happened outside. It's just that the master is weak and was injured in order to save the prince, so he needs to rest for a few more days. The emperor has been on guard for a whole day yesterday, and the prince seems to be tossing again. Several times, but the emperor never left half a step. The elder brother who was next to him wanted to visit, but he was blocked back, saying that it was nothing serious—the fourth elder brother even left a message, saying that he was waiting for today's hunting trip. When I’m done, I’ll definitely come and see you.”

Tanlang's thinking has always been clear, and he can explain the whole story of these two days in a few words.Yin Qi nodded, stuffed meat with chopsticks into his mouth, and held his chin in thought: "If it's a horse—cough, horse meat is not easy to find, it's better to start with the prince. I always feel that the prince's meat What's wrong with the whip, I just held it that day, and my hand was in a burning pain for a long time. Thinking about it carefully, there are no barbs on the whip, even if I rub it, it shouldn't hurt for so long. yes……"

Tanlang and Lianzhen agreed in unison, and got together again to continue to study the new plan.Yin Qi took the veil that was put aside and applied it to his eyes, and couldn't help but think of the unscrupulous crying that night. After a long while in a daze, a real and warm smile slowly soaked into his eyes.

It turns out—this is called "living"...
