General's Gown

Helian Rongchuan's smile slowly froze on his face, his body was covered in blood, and he fell down slowly.The ground behind him suddenly cracked a dark ravine, which immediately engulfed Helian Rongchuan.

"Do not!!!!"

Yan Changqing screamed in disbelief, and threw himself forward without hesitation——

A blinding light.

With clean bedding and plain window lattices, Yan Changqing opened his eyes, only to feel his world spinning, cold sweat dripping down his face, and his chest heaving violently.

Is it... a dream?

The cold pain all over his body reminded him to return to reality.

Wei Jin, who had been waiting by the side all the time, rushed over, excited and incoherent: "Are you awake? Okay, okay, I thought, I thought..."

Wei Jin's face was covered with wet tears, he was always clean and gentle, his clothes were still stained with the mud splashed by the crowd during the day, he looked dirty.

Yan Changqing looked behind him, He Li and a few personal guards were also in a panic like Wei Jin's, they looked like they wanted to laugh and cry, and the least courageous one even wiped away his tears sobbingly.

In order to wake up Yan Changqing, Wei Jin inserted several silver needles on his body.Wei Jin helped him take out the needle at this time, and said: "Just wake up, take out the needle, and drink some medicine..." Obviously Dong Yun's youngest and most promising imperial physician, the hand that pulled out the silver needle trembled The ground is so strong that I couldn't hold the silver needle several times.

When he heard the word "drink", Yan Changqing's throat choked slightly.He couldn't remember the last time he drank water.Throat was extremely thirsty, but every time he saw water, or related liquid, his body wanted to spasm uncontrollably.After the absurd farce of "catching the drought mango", his condition seems to be even worse now.

Yan Changqing looked at the dark night outside the window: "How long have I been asleep?"

"It's been more than four hours. It's past the time of ugliness." Wei Jin looked at Yan Chang's innocent and terrifying face, and comforted him: "My lord, please wait a little longer. My Highness must be back at dawn. Let's go together Dong Yun, that method is definitely feasible——?"

Yan Changqing remained silent for a while before slowly nodding his head.How did Wei Jin know that he deliberately sent Helian Rongchuan away because he was concerned about the only possible way to save his life.

The smile of Helian Rongchuan frozen in a pool of blood in the dream, once again clearly appeared in Yan Changqing's mind.

Yes, it won't be long before Helian Rongchuan will come back.Everything must go according to the original plan.

A faint smile emerged from the corner of Yan Changqing's mouth: "Okay, then I'll wait for him." Then he lay down again, looking a little tired: "You all go down, I'm fine, I want to be alone for a while. "

Wei Jin was a little worried: "Am I still here to guard?"

Yan Changqing shook his head: "I can't sleep because someone is watching."

Wei Jin had no choice but to back down, wanting to go to the nearest side room to be ready at any time, but just as he stepped over the threshold, Yan Changqing's throat was hoarse, and he said softly:

"The doctor is benevolent. The plague in the city has not been eradicated, and the women are weak, sick and disabled. I still have to thank you for everything."

Wei Jin's eyes turned hot.When Yan Changqing was in a coma, he thought about it for a long time. Seeing that Yan Changqing almost put his life in for Qin Chuan, but he suffered such humiliation, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. A big pot of soup and medicine has been poured out, and I don't want to save these ignorant mobs.

But at this time, when he heard Yan Changqing's entrustment, he felt ashamed in his heart, and agreed like a ghost: "Don't worry, my lord."

There is no more movement behind him, only a silent darkness.

Wei Jin closed the door and walked away cautiously.

In the stagnant night, Yan Changqing slowly opened his eyes.

The Frost Dawn horse is grazing quietly in the stable.Seeing Yan Changqing's figure, it snorted affectionately, leaned over and gently rubbed Yan Changqing's hand.

Yan Changqing climbed onto the horse's back with some difficulty, and just like that, one person and one horse walked out slowly and silently.

After experiencing the chaos during the day, the people in Qinchuan City basically believed in Yan Changqing's reason for moving the city, and rolled up their blankets one after another.Even in the middle of the night, there are still many people dragging their families, leading their cattle, sheep, horses and mules, and carrying their burdens, to the new place of relocation.

Yan Changqing mixed with the crowd and left Qinchuan City.

The silent immigrant contingent wound its way through the desert, and suddenly blew the Qiang flute from nowhere.

I don't know where to blow the reed pipe, and recruit people all night to look at their hometown.

Yan Changqing's heart moved, he couldn't help stopping the horse, and looked back.

The silvery moon emerged from the dark clouds, and in the light of the moonlight, the undulating desert looked like an endless silver-white ocean.

In this silver-white "ocean", the originally towering Qinchuan City looks so small, like a small boat in the sea that may capsize at any time, and the people slowly coming out of the city are almost small. floating.

Yan Changqing let out a long breath, feeling tired again.

Qinchuan City, Qinchuan City, this city has carried too many memories of him, worries, thrills, joys, and humiliation.For Qin Chuancheng, he has exhausted his benevolence and righteousness, and has a clear conscience.

Now, it's finally time to say goodbye.

In the farce during the day, Yan Changqing endured the severe pain to conceal his illness, and only temporarily clarified the rumor of "Hanba".Even if Wei Jin didn't say anything, Yan Changqing knew very well that his condition was rapidly deteriorating, and he didn't know how long it would take before he would lose consciousness and become a complete lunatic.At that time, no matter how hard he gritted his teeth and insisted on his illness, it would be difficult to hide it.The people of Qinchuan City will completely believe that he is a Hanba who wants to harm the city.

Yan Changqing is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that because of his illness, the plan to move the city will fall short.So he had to avoid everyone's sight while he was still conscious.

But he left quietly, not just for the people of Qinchuan.

Even more because of Helian Rongchuan.

Ever since Wei Jin told Yan Changqing the only way to cure hydrophobia, he had a decisive plan in his mind.Now is the time to implement this plan.

Yan Changqing lowered his eyes, his slender fingers clenched the reins tightly, trembling slightly.His horse's rein is very special, the place where he holds it most often is wrapped with a very soft cotton cloth, even if he pulls on the rein for a long time, the rough rein will not rub his palms anymore.

This is what Helian Rongchuan secretly did for him.

This man, who looks unrestrained and glib, is always protecting him silently where he doesn't expect it.

Yan Changqing gently stroked the horse's reins, and under the moonlight, there was a glimmer of light in his black eyes.

It's not that he didn't hesitate.

If we could bid farewell then, if we could meet again...?

But parting in the world is just like this. In many cases, you are not given a chance to say goodbye solemnly. A seemingly ordinary goodbye often becomes a farewell.

For his safety, Helian Rongchuan had paid a lot.This time, he would never allow Helian Rongchuan to be dragged down by him again.

He could only say sorry for what Helian Rongchuan was looking forward to and everything that hadn't started yet.

He is doomed to owe it.

Thinking of this, Yan Changqing pursed his lips and forcibly suppressed the emotions in his heart.He was so weak that he could hardly sit still, so he leaned lightly on the horse's back, pressed close to Shuang Xiao's ear, and said something in a weak and hoarse voice.

Shuang Zou obediently turned around, left the emigration team, and walked deep into the desert.

---------------------

For the people of Qinchuan, and for Helian Rongchuan, he needs to go to a place that no one knows, and wait quietly for the arrival of death alone.

Monan Border Pass, thirty miles away from Qinchuan City, is a small town. Because it occupies the main road to Qinchuan, there are many business travelers, and many inns and tea stalls have gradually developed. Taking care of the tired people and doing a small business, although not prosperous, can still make a living.

At this moment, the sky was still gray and before dawn, the proprietress of Manfu Inn got up early, swept the ground carefully with a broom, twisted the wet handkerchief, and quickly cleaned the twenty-odd tables and benches in the store. Give it a good wipe.

The wind and sand in the south of the monastery was heavy, and it was clear that the table was wiped carefully before closing last night. The wind blew all night, and a thin layer of white ash fell on it.In recent days, due to Qinchuan's relocation, there have been fewer people passing by on the road, and the business has also deteriorated.The proprietress was so anxious that she wanted to clean up the inn and attract more guests.

No, after finishing the work at hand, the proprietress rolled up her sleeves and went to wipe the window lattice outside the inn.Hang Chi Hang Chi worked for a long time before resting.She has a fierce personality, and her manner is a bit bold and unrestrained, she doesn't care about anything, she sits on the threshold with her sleeves fanning her sweaty head.

Fanning and fanning, the proprietress suddenly stopped, blinked her eyes, and looked towards the official road outside the inn.

Did she blink, why did she look at the end of the official road, and there seemed to be a figure riding a horse?

It is not surprising that there are people coming and going on the official road, but what is strange is this hour.Before dawn, no one will ride on horseback unless there is an urgent matter. Firstly, there is a strong wind and sand, and secondly, wild wolves and snakes often sneak up on people and animals in the dark.

What is the urgent matter of this person, so he rushed on the road overnight?

Just as the proprietress was curious, the man had already galloped up to her eyes.Tall and straight, with a handsome face and a bit of unruly wildness, a pair of deep, tea-brown eyes seem to hide a bit of sharpness.The proprietress just glanced at it, and couldn't help thinking, oh, what a handsome young man!

Helian Rongchuan got off the horse, walked into the store with the bamboo basket in his arms, and said casually: "Madam proprietress, if you keep staring at me like that, I'll feel embarrassed."

Only then did the proprietress realize that she had been rude, and she blushed, but without any shyness, she asked with a smile, "Guest officer, do you want to hit the tip?"

He Lian Rongchuan gave a "hmm" and said: "What is the fastest food in your house, hurry up and get some. I can hurry."

The proprietress showed a shy expression on her face: "I'm really sorry, you came too early. The steamed buns are steaming in the drawer, and they take a while to be cooked. Only the buttered naan cakes made yesterday...but milk tea is ready-made, thief It’s hot, do you want some??”

Helian Rongchuan looked at the sky outside the window, and said nonchalantly: "It's all good, just hurry up."

The proprietress hurriedly responded, and came out with a plate of food after a while.When it was placed next to Helian Rongchuan, he glanced curiously out of the corner of his eyes, and finally saw clearly what was half covered with cloth in his bamboo basket.

Whip shoots!

The lady boss rolled her eyes.She had heard that the whip shoots were only found in the bamboo forest in a small wetland in the southernmost corner of the desert. Because of their scarcity and difficulty in long-distance transportation, they were extremely precious food in places like Monan.She has been running an inn for so many years, and occasionally saw dried bamboo shoots in the hands of business travelers.It was the first time she had seen such fresh and tender bamboo shoots as if they had just been dug out.

Tsk tsk, with such a big basket, I am afraid that this young man dug up all the bamboo shoots in the entire bamboo forest?

The proprietress couldn't help rubbing her hands: "Guest officer, you are such a good bamboo shoot, how much do you plan to sell it for a catty?" The proprietress thought to herself, her six-year-old son must love such tender bamboo shoots .If the young man's price is fair, she will bite the bullet and buy two for him to try.

Helian Rongchuan seemed to be very hungry, he ate a few mouthfuls of hard naan cakes that were hard and cold, and took a few mouthfuls of milk tea before saying: "Not for sale."

"Not for sale?" The proprietress was very surprised.She looked at Helian Rongchuan's dusty appearance, and looked at the fresh and tender bamboo shoots, and knew in her heart that this young man must have been staying up all night and rushing on his way.Spend so much effort, not to make money, what would it be for?

Helian Rongchuan smiled: "These things are for making people happy."

The proprietress thought she had heard wrongly.Dazed for a moment, he finally understood what Helian Rongchuan meant, and couldn't help sighing: "Hey, she must be an extremely beautiful woman to have such a blessing!"

Let such a handsome man work tirelessly to send bamboo shoots from thousands of miles just to make her happy?This is the blessing accumulated in which life?

There was a tenderness in Helian Rongchuan's eyes, and his smile deepened: "You are only right in the first half of what you said."

It must be his luck to meet Yan Changqing.He suffered a lot since he was a child, and lost his mother when he was young, so he would not starve to death by eating hundreds of meals.Later, he entered the palace to become the king, but he had to face the father he hated the most in his life, and the seemingly glamorous, but actually corrupt Dongyun Dynasty.In the deep palace of intrigues and deceptions, in order to protect himself, he was forced to hone himself into a double-faced man who seemed to be a romantic, but actually had sharp claws.

For so many years, only one person looked at him with the purest and simplest eyes, never hiding any intention of using or calculating.Even though that person sometimes looked at him with disgust and sometimes with helplessness, Helian Rongchuan was content with it.

Because of meeting Yan Changqing, Helian Rongchuan felt for the first time that a ray of light shone into his life.It was a beam of moonlight, seemingly cool, but extremely soft, extremely bright, and extremely beautiful.Helian Rongchuan sometimes even thought back, was the reason why God let him go through so much suffering in his childhood, was it to accumulate luck for him and let him meet Yan Changqing?

That God is really kind to Helian Rongchuan.

The proprietress didn't understand what Helian Rongchuan meant, she was thoughtful, she stopped answering, she just shut her mouth tactfully, and was about to bring another pot of tea from the small stove at the door.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked to the door, she met five or six people who were dressed in official uniforms and looked anxious. They stopped her and asked, "Miss Boss, I'm asking you for someone!"

The proprietress was taken aback and said tremblingly, "Who are you asking?"

"From last night to this morning, have you ever seen a man in his early twenties?" The leader of the officers and soldiers gestured above his head: "He is so tall, dressed in black, and looks very handsome, like a fairy. Riding a white horse, what's its name... Oh yes, it's called Shuangzi?!"
