life imprisonment

Lang's mind was still not here, he frowned slightly, and his eyes became colder and deeper.

"I want Huo Xiao to simply live in the palace, what do you think?"

"Uh, this... Huainan King's mansion was not abandoned back then, and it is just right for him to live there. If you want to let him enter the palace, what name will you use?"

Zhong Anu didn't dare to refute Huo Lang directly.

"Oh, it's the best name for him to live here." Huo Lang sneered, and looked at Zhong Anu disdainfully.He was able to ravage Huo Qing in every possible way in the cold palace back then, and he was not afraid of people's words, but now he just brought an insignificant son of the royal family into the palace, who would dare to risk disobedience and cause trouble for himself?

But having said that, after more than ten years in power, he has gradually relaxed his strict control over the government, acted like a good follower, encouraged ministers to give advice in many ways, and cultivated many

A loyal talent who dares to speak out.If he really called King Huainan into the palace for no reason, he would inevitably be persuaded by his courtiers.

"Well, let's just say that I feel sorry for Huo Xiao who was imprisoned before, and specially called him into the palace to receive the education of the Tai Tuo with the prince, so let's stay in the East Palace temporarily."

"Since His Majesty has such benevolent intentions, it must be difficult for the officials to refute. The servants will go down and make arrangements."

Zhong Anu always does things according to Huo Lang's wishes as much as possible. In fact, from the very beginning, he saw Huo Lang's unique ambiguous gaze towards Huo Xiao. It was after so many years. After Huo Qing died, Huo Lang It's the first time I look at someone like that.

The crown prince Huo Yue is three years younger than Huo Xiao, and he is deeply unfamiliar with this strange cousin.

However, he heard that it was his father's order to let the other party study with him in the Wende Palace in the future, and he had no way of objecting, because his father was really powerful, just staring at him would scare him enough.

"I've seen the prince." Huo Xiao didn't expect that Huo Lang's son was so old. He still remembered that the year Huo Lang's son was born was the year he fell into hell.

Huo Yue looked at Huo Qing coldly. He heard that the other party was just a common man who was imprisoned in the old prince's mansion. He was released because he inherited the title of King Huainan who was said to be good at fighting.

Although Huo Yue had never met King Huainan, and knew the fact that the other party led the rebel army to rebel, but because everyone said that King Huainan was a handsome man with both civil and military skills, he couldn't help feeling a lot about the legendary man. A bit of admiration.But now, the title of Huainan King was actually inherited by this thin, but also cowardly-looking guy, which is really uncomfortable.

"You are Huo Xiao?" Huo Yue didn't have a good face, but there was a bit of Huo Lang's coldness on that still childish face.

"Exactly." Huo Qing nodded with a smile, this child is still his nephew, it's ridiculous that the two of them meet in such identities now.

"Hmph, although the emperor asked you to come here. But you remember your identity! I will not recognize you as my imperial brother!"

"Huo Xiao understands. Please don't worry, Prince. I have no intention of resuming the title. The word Huainan Wang is too heavy for me."

Huo Qing had no expression on his face, he just looked at this nephew who was quite similar to Huo Lang gently, as if he had seen Huo Lang when he was a child, and they were real brothers and friends at that time.

For some reason, Huo Yue was a little embarrassed by Huo Qing's gentle gaze. His roughness touched the other's tenderness, just like fire meeting water, and had to be annihilated quietly.

"Well...that's okay, you can go down first. Someone will call you tomorrow."

"Then Huo Xiao is leaving." Huo Qing saluted Huo Yue respectfully before walking out.

Wu De looked at Huo Yue's appearance just now at the door, and was very worried about Huo Qing's life in the East Palace in the future. This place is not comparable to Huainan Palace, at least it is their place.

own home.

"The prince seems to be targeting you very much. You must be more careful in your words and deeds in the future."

"Don't worry, it's alright."

Huo Qing calmly showed Wu De a comforting smile. Although Huo Yue's temper was a bit grumpy, in his eyes, these were just childish, and after the other party met his gaze, the guilty look was enough to show that The other party is not a child who is ignorant of etiquette and blindly doing nonsense. Huo Qing believes that the goodness in Huo Yue's heart is not lost.

For Huo Lang, that Huo Qing-like person was like a tempting trap.

From time to time, he called Huo Yue and Huo Xiao to his bedroom. On the surface, he wanted to know about the prince's recent study and life, but more often, he wanted to see Huo Xiao.

A few years later, Huo Xiao was already 20 years old, and it was the year when he reached the crown. A minister suggested that it was not suitable for Huo Xiao to continue to live with the prince in the East Palace, and hoped that Huo Lang would allow him to return to the Huainan Palace.

Huo Lang didn't object either, but on the grounds that Huo Xiao was smart and eager to learn, he named him the servant of the Huangmen, and granted him the right to freely enter and leave the palace, so that he would always be by his side.

114. Under Huo Qing

Regarding Huo Lang's decision, although Huo Qing was extremely unwilling, there was nothing he could do.He could vaguely sense the ambiguity in the other party's eyes looking at him all these years.

It was a dangerous look, like a tiger staring at its prey.

What made Huo Qing even more uneasy was Huo Yue's attitude towards him. The prince who was quite indifferent to him in the past, after a few years of facing him day and night, actually looked a bit like Huo Lang back then.

At that time, the other party trusted his elder brother wholeheartedly, and would tell him immediately if there were any good or bad things, as if he regarded himself as the closest person.

Hearing that Huo Qing was going to move back to the Huainan Palace, Huo Yue's gloomy appearance seemed to have been greatly wronged.

"Brother Xiao, I know you have to move back, but don't forget, you must come back to see me often."

Although Huo Qing lived in Huo Xiao's body that was as young as his age, his soul was already full of vicissitudes.

"Don't worry, Your Royal Highness, I will come to see you when I have time." Huo Qing looked at this child who was his nephew, and couldn't help but reached out and touched his head.

Huo Yue raised his head, but the face that became more and more like Huo Lang's was not as cold and severe as Huo Lang's, just like the innocent Huo Lang back then.

Inadvertently, Huo Qing's heart was startled slightly because of the child's innocent smile.

"Prince, it's getting late, I have to go back and tidy up first. Farewell."

He turned around in a hurry, trying to avoid Huo Yue's gaze that made him feel something.

Many years ago, he was attracted by his younger brother's innocent gaze, and he was more than willing to give everything for it, although what he got in return was another ending.

Huo Yue stared blankly at Huo Xiao who left suddenly for some reason, and standing on the palace steps, he looked at the thin back, and with a movement of his lips, he softly called Brother Xiao.

In the Hall of Eternal Life, which has become the center of the dynasty's rule, besides Zhong Anu who served Huo Lang personally, Huo Xiao also became a frequent visitor.

In the imperial court, the current king of Huainan, who resembled the previous king of Huainan, gradually became the center of the topic.

There were even rumors that Huo Xiao was possessed by Huo Qing, otherwise why would the other party look so much like Huo Qing.

Of course, there are also some even more outrageous rumors, some people actually said that the princess was actually touched by Huo Qing in private, Huo Xiao is not the blood of the previous prince, and the reason why Huo Qing later helped Huo Lang compete with the prince may be because of this a relationship.

These rumors naturally reached Huo Lang's ears.

"Xiao'er, has anyone ever told you that you look a lot like King Huainan?"

He sat on the couch, habitually put one hand on the kneeling statue of Shura sitting beside the couch, and looked at Huo Qing who was arranging the memorial for him with a smile on his face.

Huo Qing was slightly taken aback, he had been serving as a servant for a year, and he was always cautious, afraid that Huo Lang would see the clues, and even more afraid that Huo Lang would take the opportunity to covet his new body .He knew that the other party would not let him go, even if he died, his body was still sealed in the clay statue of Shura, and he could not rest in peace.

But now, Huo Xiao's face was very similar to his own, and Huo Qing naturally knew what Huo Lang would think when he saw such a face.

He pretended to be ignorant and innocent, and said blankly, "His Majesty, I don't remember the appearance of Huainan King Huo Qing."

"Oh, yes, you were still young at that time." Huo Lang nodded, and suddenly got up and walked to a cabinet that was always locked.

He opened the cabinet and carefully took out a scroll from inside.

After Huo Qing saw Huo Lang unfolding the scroll, his brows could not help but twist slightly.

The man in the painting is dressed in a loose robe, standing with his hands behind his back, with a magnificent bearing.

And looking closely at the man's eyebrows, it was when Huo Qing was young.

"This is my elder brother—the King of Huainan." Huo Lang unfolded the scroll in front of Huo Qing, looking at him playfully.

Huo Qing didn't know what to say, so he nodded silently, unwilling to say any more.

Huo Lang put the scroll aside, suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Huo Qing's shoulders, pushed him to the side of the case, pointed to the person on the painting, and whispered softly in Huo Qing's ear:

"Look, does it look like you?"

Huo Qing only felt that Huo Lang's hand on his shoulder made him extremely uneasy, he almost forgot the necessary etiquette, and actually pushed Huo Lang away who was whispering in his ear.

He covered his chest, forcibly suppressing the nausea surging in his heart.

"Your Majesty..." Huo Qing looked at Huo Lang in confusion. Once upon a time, he loved this man, and he didn't even hate him thoroughly.

But when he was forced into a desperate situation by the other party, he realized that the love he had been obsessed with should have vanished long ago.

In this life, and even in the next life, Huo Qing understood that it was impossible for him to love Huo Lang as he did before.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Huo Lang stared at Huo Qing with tangled eyes almost in surprise. Deep in his memory, the forbearance that only belonged to Huo Qing showed again from the eyes of this man who should have nothing to do with Huo Qing.

Huo Qing hurriedly lowered his head and knelt down.

He didn't want to let Huo Lang know about his rebirth, and he didn't want to have more entanglements with him like in the previous life.

"The minister suddenly feels uncomfortable in his heart, please Your Majesty to allow the minister to resign."

"Heart discomfort? I haven't heard of you having this problem." Huo Lang walked forward resolutely, he pinched Huo Xiao's chin, and forced him to raise his head.

Looking at that handsome face and those eyes as deep as an ancient well, Huo Lang's icy heart trembled slightly again because of the cool face of Huo Qing.

"Are you afraid of me?"

"No." Huo Qing smiled bitterly in his heart. In fact, he was not afraid of Huo Lang in his heart, but the entanglement with him in his previous life had already made him tired of him.

But who knew that by mistake, in this life, he still couldn't escape Huo Lang's entanglement.

"Then why do you always act like you don't want to stay by my side? Do you really think I can't see it?" Huo Lang asked Huo Qing calmly.

Huo Qing couldn't answer Huo Lang's question, he could only kneel on the ground stupidly, and the expression on his face became as melancholy and deep as that kneeling statue of Shura.

Huo Lang raised his eyebrows suddenly, obviously dissatisfied with Huo Qing's attitude.

"Speak?!" Huo Lang snarled, his violent temper was still not suppressed, and he kicked Huo Qing.

Huo Xiao's body is quite weak because of being under house arrest in the old Prince's Mansion for many years before, even after a period of recuperation later, it is inevitable that he will be weak.

Huo Lang's kick almost made Huo Qing lose his breath.

"I have nothing to say." Huo Qing gritted his teeth, unwilling to give in to Huo Lang's aggressiveness.

"You really look like him. Get up."

Huo Lang also noticed that his emotions were out of control. He stared blankly at the person lying on the ground. The situation in front of him dates back to more than ten years ago.

The same was true of his obstinate brother, who would not give in, would not beg for mercy, would not even explain.

Knowing that he had wronged him, he just walked towards the execution ground without saying a word, not even leaving a last word to himself.

Huo Qing originally thought that Huo Lang would persecute him in every possible way like before, but to his surprise, Huo Lang didn't say anything, just waved him to leave.

"Brother Qing, that child really looks like you."

Huo Lang stroked the face of the statue of Shura, muttering to himself.

"I intended to let him...stay by my side and accompany me well. But he is not you after all. And maybe you don't want to see me go wrong again. "

Huo Lang laughed bitterly, and his stern expression became more sad.

Suddenly, the supreme being slightly bent his knees and knelt down facing the statue of Shura.

"I know, I pushed you to a dead end with my own hands. So you are destined to never come back to me again. I know..."

Huo Lang held the statue of Shura tightly with both hands. In his eyes, there was pain, remorse, and helplessness.

Not long after, Huo Qing's position in the Yellow Gate was removed by Huo Lang's order, which meant that he no longer had to enter the palace to serve at Huo Lang's side.

Although he escaped Huo Lang's harassment, Huo Qing's life was far from completely peaceful, because Huo Lang's son Huo Yue was also a troublesome guy.

Every few days, the other party would find an excuse to send someone to invite him over, or sneak over in person.

In the prosperity and prosperity, and Huo Lang has only such an only son, naturally there will be no such tragic power struggles as in the past.

Huo Yue grew up in a clean environment, and Huo Qing watched helplessly as that somewhat arrogant child gradually turned into a reasonable yet childlike prince.

He even sometimes thought that if his mother and concubine hadn't made that heinous mistake, perhaps Huo Lang wouldn't have become a younger brother whom he didn't even know because of his hatred.

"Brother Xiao, this is the Jinping Tang that the Nanman people paid tribute to a few days ago. I brought some here specially, and I'll give you a taste too!"

Just when Huo Qing was fascinated, a sweet hard thing was stuffed into his mouth, he turned his head in surprise, and in front of him was a face with a very clean and hearty smile.

"Oh, you child..." Huo Qing tasted the sweet candy in his mouth, and suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart. What was he thinking about with so many irreversible pasts?

Since God insisted on him being born again and gave him a different life, let him also enjoy a pleasant life.

Years of hard work at the desk made Huo Lang's body gradually decay.

But at the age of 45, he was overworked and sick.

When Huo Qing heard the news, someone from the palace hurriedly came to the Huainan Palace, asking him to enter the palace to face the saint.

It was still the Hall of Eternal Life where the kneeling statue of his own corpse was placed. Every time Huo Qing saw that statue of Shura, he felt very uncomfortable for a while. He thought that one day, if possible, he must find a way to at least make his corpse buried in the ground. install.

Huo Lang lay on the bed, surrounded by many people.

Huo Yue, who was sobbing, turned his head to see Huo Qing, hurried up and grabbed his hand.

"Brother Xiao, Father wants to see you."

Huo Qing nodded hesitantly, and walked to the bed. Huo Lang lying on the bed was haggard and old.

He hadn't seen Huo Lang for several days. If the other party was deliberately pestering him before, then the other party seemed to be hiding from him on purpose, and refused to show up in front of him easily, until... today hour.

"Huo Xiao greets His Majesty."

Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, but when Huo Qing thought of his tragic death back then, there was pain in his eyes.

Back then, Huo Lang must have known that his body was already dying, but he refused to even give him a peaceful death.

And now, the other party is about to pass away, but I don't know... Will he ever think about how to face his underground self?

But he might not have thought that even if he went underground, he would never see himself again.

It became difficult for Huo Lang to speak, he nodded vigorously, looked left and right at the important ministers and the crown prince guarding him, and said weakly, "You go out first... I want to stay alone with King Huainan for a while."

Huo Qing got up slowly, and looked at Huo Lang puzzled. The other party had clearly alienated him over the years, but why did he act like this at this time?

After everyone went out crying, Huo Lang smiled at Huo Qing.

"They're noisy."

"Your Majesty should take a good rest at this time. I think it's better to call the imperial physician over." Huo Qing was a little unwilling to face Huo Lang like this, he took a step back.

"No. I just want to take a good look at you, King Huainan."

Huo Lang deliberately used the title Huainan King, as if when he called out these three words, the person standing in front of him was really the famous Huainan King Huo Qing in the past.

Seeing Huo Lang struggling to sit up, Huo Qing had no choice but to step forward to help him, but the other party took the opportunity to grab his hand.

"Brother Qing, we haven't sat down and chatted for a long time."

Huo Qing was startled suddenly, he didn't understand how Huo Lang saw that he was reincarnated, just when he was about to speak, he saw Huo Lang showing a helpless smile.

"Don't talk, just treat you as Huo Qing. I want to talk to him."

So it turns out... Huo Lang still regards Huo Xiao as himself, even though he is indeed Huo Xiao now.

It's just that Huo Qing didn't understand, since Huo Lang was so determined to execute himself so cruelly, why he pretended to be intimacy that seemed to have no enmity between them at this time.

Fortunately, he knew the cause and effect, otherwise someone else might really be deceived by Huo Lang's nostalgic appearance.

"Brother Qing, I already know about your injustice back then. I'm sorry for making you feel wronged for so many years, but don't worry, when I die, the crown prince will rehabilitate you in accordance with the will. The words Huainan Wang will no longer have any taints." All these years, I regret how I treated you that way. I was blinded by hatred, and I failed your love for me in the past, and let down your trust and support for me."

Huo Lang kept talking on his own, his body was extremely weak and he coughed a few times from time to time, and his face became more and more ugly.

Huo Qing remained silent as he ordered, quietly playing the role of listener.

"I hated your mother and concubine for harming my mother, and I hated you for trying to save her in every possible way. That's why I broke up with you and treated you as an enemy. Now that I think about it, my whole life Perhaps the happiest days are the days when I was with you when I was young. I thought that as long as I was ruthless enough, I could completely get rid of your influence on me, but who knows, I am going to die now. Before I die, the person I want the most still you."

After Huo Lang finished speaking, he looked up at Huo Qing. To him, the young man standing in front of him was the Huainan King Huo Qing.

When a person is about to die, his words are also good.

The remorse in Huo Lang's heart is beyond words, and the sorrow in his heart is also soaked by his own tears.

Huo Qing was uncomfortable with Huo Lang's sad gaze, he turned his head slightly, and suddenly, he let out a long sigh.

"What's the use of saying this now... Do you know how painful it is for a person to be heartbroken by the one he loves. Huo Lang, you are really sorry for me. "

"You... what did you say! Who are you!"

Huo Lang was shocked to see that Huo Xiao, who not only looked like Huo Qing, but also sounded like Huo Qing, said such a sentence to himself, how could he not think that the person in front of him was definitely Huo Qing!

"Now that things have happened, I won't lie to you anymore. Huo Lang, you guessed right, I am Huo Qing. Huo Xiao's body is just where I live. Presumably this child has died of illness under house arrest."

"You, you are Brother Qing! Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Huo Lang's eyes were full of remorse, he struggled to stretch out his hand, and grabbed Huo Qing's clothes tightly.

"You are willing to admit that you are Brother Qing, then...are you willing to forgive me..."

Huo Qing lowered his eyes, reached out and opened Huo Lang's clenched fingers.

"I don't need to hate you. But I may not be able to forgive you. Huo Lang, people's hearts are fleshy. You know what you did to me back then. If you were in my situation at the time, wouldn't you Can you forgive that younger brother who humiliated you so much and finally tortured you to death when you were dying of illness? I know that my mother and concubine are sorry for you, so I try my best to make up for it, but I also thought that if you really You can't forgive me, even if you kill me, I will have no complaints. But you... ah... Huo Lang, if you really miss your old feelings, you won't be able to push us into a desperate situation."

Huo Lang looked at the gloomy Huo Qing in surprise, he had completely believed that the Huo Xiao in front of him was not Huo Xiao.Because what the other party said was a secret only known between him and Huo Qing, it was absolutely impossible for Huo Xiao, who was under house arrest in the Prince's Mansion back then, to know all about it.

Hearing Huo Qing's accusation, Huo Lang was momentarily at a loss for words. He coughed vigorously for a while, and the resentment in his eyes had been replaced by despair.

His gentle and kind brother Qing never said anything harsh to him in his life, even though he tortured him in every possible way, he still just endured it silently, even when he knew his cruelty before he died, he never spoke ill of him.Zhong Anu once persuaded himself not to put the Shura statue made of Huo Qing's corpse in the bedroom, saying that he was afraid that the other party's soul would continue to invade him, but he knew that Huo Qing's temperament was not the kind that would take revenge on himself. people.

He knew Huo Qing's kindness, he knew Huo Qing's forbearance, but he didn't understand the other party's deep love for him. He squandered the relationship between the two wantonly, but ignored the one who might bear what he gave because of guilt. Brother Qing, who is tortured, or perhaps tolerates the bullying he inflicts because of love, will also be hurt, sad, and in pain.

"Heh... Brother Qing, you are still the same as before. You still refuse to swear harshly at people like me—a beast."

Huo Lang suddenly laughed, raised his pale face, and stared at Huo Qing again.

"No matter what, you are still willing to see me, which means that you don't completely hate me. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to apologize to you in person. Brother Qing, I'm sorry."

While talking, Huo Lang suddenly stretched out his hand towards Huo Qing again, his withered hand trembling slightly, hoping to touch Huo Qing again.

Huo Qing took a deep breath, but closed his eyes and shook his head. He took a step back, avoiding the hand that Huo Lang extended towards him, without saying or doing anything.

Huo Lang's expression became very tangled and painful. He understood Huo Qing's determination not to forgive him, and also understood how deeply he had hurt him back then.

"Alas..." Huo Lang blinked weakly, tears suddenly fell from the corner of his eyes, and after a soft sigh overflowed from his mouth, the hand extended to Huo Qing also fell softly.

Huo Qing opened his mouth, but in the end he clenched his fists tightly and blocked all the words in his mouth. He walked to the side of the bed, supported Huo Lang's body and lay him back on the bed, and then stretched out his hand to close the quilt of tears for him. Soaked eyes.

One month later, the new emperor Huo Yue ascended the throne and changed his reign name to Qitai.

In the second year of Qitai, Huo Yue issued an edict to rehabilitate Huo Qing, the former king of Huainan, claiming that after investigation by all parties, Huo Qing's rebellion was framed by someone, and that the other party not only did not rebel, but also secretly assisted in the suppression of the rebellion.

Huo Yue even ordered the building of the Loyalty Shrine for Huo Qing, cast golden statues, and personally led the important officials in the court to pay homage to the uncle who died unjustly, and set a system for the sacrifice every year in the future.

On the way back after the worship, Huo Yue looked at the sullen Huo Qing, and couldn't help asking, "Brother Xiao, I vindicated Uncle Huo Qing, why do you look unhappy?"

Huo Qing frowned, and then said, "The deceased is gone. Now that His Majesty can rehabilitate him selflessly, I believe that Uncle Huo Qing's spirit in the sky can also rest in peace, but it cost a lot of money to build such a grand Loyalty Shrine. What kind of golden body, I'm afraid the emperor will find it too extravagant when he sees it."

Huo Yue scratched his head, and had no choice but to explain, "This is explained in detail in the imperial father's will, although I also think... Is it a bit overkill. I just think that the imperial father should be deeply regretful about killing the uncle right and wrong. , otherwise I wouldn’t have specifically instructed this in the will. However, the heroic soul of a person like the emperor’s uncle should be enshrined, and the common people would not object to this. Haven’t you heard that the Loyalty Temple has been repaired, Does the daily capital keep burning incense, all the people spontaneously come to pay respects to the emperor's uncle."

When Huo Qing heard Huo Yue say this, his face flushed for a while. He just did what he should do, and he was really ashamed to be promoted to such an extent by everyone.

While Huo Qing bowed his head in thought, Huo Yue, who had already harbored evil intentions, secretly kissed him.

Huo Qing suddenly covered his face, looking in surprise at Huo Yue who actually underestimated him in broad daylight, the other party was much more courageous than Huo Lang back then.

"Huo Yue, you...why are you like this?!" In a hurry, Huo Qing forgot to say the honorific.

Huo Yue hugged Huo Qing nonchalantly. Anyway, he and Huo Qing were in the carriage, surrounded by people kneeling on both sides. Who would know what they were doing.

"Who told my brother to be good-looking, hehe, speaking of it, many people say that you look exactly the same as the emperor's uncle. You should not be the reincarnation of the king of Huainan. In that case, the construction of the Loyalty Temple is really in vain, the emperor's uncle's." The heroic soul is here."

"Don't talk nonsense, let me go." Huo Qing was embarrassed, but it's a pity that his current body has no strength to restrain a chicken, and he can't break free from Huo Yue's rascal hug.

"If you want me to let you go, then you can take the initiative to kiss me. You have been eating and drinking in my palace for so many years, you must give me something!"

Huo Yue hugged Huo Qing with a smile, not hiding his feelings for him.

The coachman sitting in front of the carriage was covered in sweat at this moment, and he was tense, wishing that his ears were deaf at this moment.

Because he heard something... Is it really the current emperor and His Highness Huainan Wang sitting in it?

But today is such a fine weather, the coachman raised his head to look at the sky, suddenly a friendly moan came from the carriage, making his sun-tanned face blush.

The author has something to say: I finally gave Huo Qing an explanation, see you in the next article!

115. Frost and snow cover the head, and it is also a white head

Fenghua Valley.

"Director Xu, Huo Xiao, King of Huainan, is here by order. What else do we not arrange?"

"Huainan King? What kind of Huainan King is he? Heh, he is just an idle prince with a large amount of income and expenses. It has been more than ten years since Lu Yiyun and Yue Xinghe were both imprisoned in the dungeon. He was also officially promoted to the manager of Fenghua Valley, and he was in charge of food, clothing, travel, reception, property receipts and disbursements in the valley. In his heart, the only person who could be called Huainan King was Huo Qing.

Seeing that it was written in the ledger that the Changbai Mountain School had sent ten thousand-year-old ginseng over a few days ago, Xu Shisan smiled slightly and ordered to his subordinates, "Take five ginseng and give it to Amon, and let him boil some of the best ginseng." The ginseng chicken soup is given to the owner of the valley to nourish his body."

Although Lu Yiyun resigned from the position of Valley Master on his own and was willing to stay with Yue Xinghe in the dungeon, but this Fenghua Valley still calls him the Valley Master, and everyone treats him with great care.

Whenever there are any good medicinal ingredients, a copy will be sent to the underground stone prison for him and Yue Xinghe to enjoy.

Underground stone prison, Jia word prison.

Back then, Lu Yiyun made a solemn vow to die with Yue Xinghe in prison, in order to atone for his sins.

But Prison Jiayi was cold and cramped after all, and everyone was afraid that Lu Yiyun would not be used to such a difficult life of imprisonment, so they tried to persuade him many times, but he just refused to listen. In the end, he reluctantly agreed because Yue Xinghe lost all his martial arts and was weak. Take Yue Xinghe out of Jiajian for a walk every day, but he still refuses to leave Jiazijian.

More than ten years have passed, Yue Xinghe has become more vicissitudes than before, his martial arts has been lost, and he can no longer maintain his appearance with outstanding internal strength like Lu Yiyun.

Looking at his half-white hair on the sideburns, Yue Xinghe felt a sense of loss in his heart.

"Yiyun, I'm afraid you want to have a child, and you and I are wearing a sinful body. If you make him feel that you are the son of two sinners, I'm afraid it will hurt him."

Yue Xinghe nodded silently, regretting his absurdity and impulsiveness back then.

He and Lu Yiyun cultivated their morality together in the dungeon.

After so many years, I felt that because of my own selfish desires and greed, I caused chaos in the world and made enemies everywhere. In the end, the evil Moyijiao and Fenghuagu were both defeated, and I also ended up being imprisoned for life.

Seeing his gloomy expression, Lu Yiyun couldn't help but smile, leaned over and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"Don't be sad. No matter what, those around you will never let you suffer from loneliness alone."

"Ah."

Hearing what Lu Yiyun said, Yue Xinghe's depressed mood improved a little. He forced a smile, and lay back on the bed a little sleepy.

Since Lu Yiyun moved in, Fenghuagu has brought in some new furniture to replace the ones he used before. Whether it is a bed, a table or chairs, they are all equipped for two people to use. Three meals a day are provided with sufficient food, so that the two of them have no worries.

Even the gate of Jiazi Jianyi is no longer locked, as long as the two of them are willing, they can come out for a walk in a limited area at any time.

Lu Yiyun knew that Yue Xinghe's health was not as good as it used to be, and he also told the guards many times that he hoped to give them some nourishing medicine and food, especially the rheumatism patch.

"But your body is sore?"

"No problem."

Yue Xinghe lay down, the old injury on his collarbone was indeed aching. After all, he lost two bones in his shoulder blade, and he lived in such a cold and humid dungeon all year round. Over the years, his old illness would naturally worsen.Di Lansheng would come down every six months to treat Yue Xinghe and Lu Yiyun's old injuries. Fortunately, Lu Yiyun's martial arts skills were not lost, and his skills were outstanding. He also took the opportunity to bluntly say that if Yue Xinghe was allowed to stay in the dungeon again, he was afraid that his old illness would worsen and even become fatal in the future. What he meant by saying this was just to hope that Lu Yiyun would take Yue Xinghe's current physical condition into account. Able to give up self-imprisonment, take the opponent out of the dungeon, and regain a new life.

But Lu Yiyun felt that he was guilty of what happened back then, he was ashamed of the world, he was ashamed of Fenghua Valley, no matter what he refused to move out of the dungeon, he would rather expend his internal energy every day to heal Yue Xinghe's wounds and drive away the cold, and even declared that he was willing to live and die with Yue Xinghe.

"I'm sorry for you."

Lu Yiyun sighed guiltily when he thought that if it wasn't for his persistence, Yue Xinghe might not have to stay in this dark, cold and humid place to suffer from illnesses.

"Since you're sleepy, go to sleep first." Lu Yiyun dissuaded him, but carefully took off his outer robe and clothes, Yue Xinghe gradually woke up, he looked at Lu Yiyun, who was still handsome and handsome, with warmth in his eyes As soon as he moved, he was already moved by this person's concerned and gentle expression.

"Yiyun...you haven't touched you for a long time, so don't be so cautious."

Lu Yiyun heard guards walking outside, so he hurriedly covered his mouth
