usurped

His feet and ankles that were bound were also worn out with blood from the rough rope. At first, he could count how many times he was beaten, but as the pain increased sharply, his eyes turned black in bursts. His mind also became blurred. He couldn't figure out how many times he had been beaten, and how many times he was left. He couldn't think, he couldn't see anything, he couldn't hear anything. For a while, Everything is silent, quiet, it seems that even the sound of his heartbeat has almost disappeared.

Tuoba Hong was expressionless, and those black pupils were as deep as the bottom of the sea, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.

There were already [-] muffled popping sounds, and Baorong's buttocks were ripped apart, dripping with blood, and there were small pools of blood all over the ground. He was lying powerlessly on his side as if his bones had been pulled out. On one side, if the shoulders and feet were not tightly fixed, they would have fallen heavily to the ground.

I don't know if it was numb from the pain, he didn't cry, not even a single tear came out, his eyes were slightly opened with a very thin slit, so thin that people couldn't see that he was opening his eyes, but It can make people feel the sadness and despair flowing from it.

"Enough." Just as the guard raised his board to hit No.20 five times, Tuoba Hong raised his voice to stop it.

"Your Majesty!" Concubine Xiang turned her head to look at the stern-faced man in surprise. The angry voice suddenly quieted down, and she said softly, "It's only been a few hits, and it's still far from fifty, Your Majesty. Why did it stop at this time?"

Tuoba Hong didn't look at her, but just smiled coldly, "Why, do you have an opinion on what I'm doing?"

When Concubine Xiang heard this, her complexion changed drastically, she hurriedly knelt down, and said in a trembling voice, "I dare not."

"Okay, get up, I don't blame you," Tuoba Hong then turned his eyes away from Bao Rong and turned to the shivering Concubine Xiang. He leaned over, helped her up, and hugged her In his arms, "Don't be impatient, Concubine Ai. If a bitch like him dies too quickly, wouldn't it be too cheap for him? We should torture slowly—slowly, are you right?"

Concubine Xiang almost didn't even think about it, and even said yes.

*****

Bao Rong lost consciousness and didn't know how he got back to Yanzhuxuan. All he knew was that he was awakened by a burst of pain. His whole body was sore and sore as if falling apart. The buttocks that were smashed by the board were not as painful as he imagined. Terrible, but the pain still made him bite his lip.

"I didn't expect that you would have the guts to fight against Concubine Xiang, given your weak and weak manner? Don't tell me that you don't know that she is the emperor's favorite concubine."

Bao Rong's opened eyelids trembled violently, and he wanted to turn around, but as soon as his neck twisted, he gave a low cry of pain, hit his head on the bed, and gasped for breath.

"You're seriously injured, it's best not to move around." Fu Qingyu packed up the medicine box, picked up his back and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and turned back to the bedside along the same path, "No I know how Xiao Yan will feel when he sees you like this, will he be heartbroken! Just like your mood at the moment. "

"..." Bao Rong didn't react violently, he pursed his chapped lips, the corners of his eyes trembled slightly, and his mouth was filled with a strong smell of blood.Why, this person still mentions that name when he is in despair, why does he still want to ignite a small flame in his frozen heart.Why, exactly why?

"Xiao Yan is so kind to you, but what about you! I've already told you that I know him, and I can give him a message for you, but you just ignore my words and take my words as wind on your ears, don't you... Don't you love him anymore?" Fu Qingyu's voice became lower and lower, with a trace of sarcasm permeating the cold air.

"Yes—" Bao Rong suddenly stood up and shouted in a hoarse voice, "I don't love him anymore, I will never love him again, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of thinking, I'm so tired of loving, So, I gave up, I let him go, let him live freely, let him like the person he loves, let me say this, you are satisfied, um..."

Before Bao Rong finished speaking, he fell heavily on the bed again, his hands were tightly grabbing the quilt, and the muscles in his shoulders and back were trembling constantly.

Pain──

Fu Qingyu stayed by his side for a while, then turned around, "I will come to change your dressing tomorrow, you should lie down! Xiaofu's injury is not healed yet, so I can't take care of you. I brought you someone when I came , Your injury will heal in a short while, and he will take care of your daily life during this period, this person is my confidant, so you don't have to worry about him being bad for you, Yan'er, come in!"

"Master Fu──" A maid wearing the clothes of an official came in.

"You take care of him and remember the things I told you to pay attention to."

"Yes, Mr. Fu."

After Fu Qingyu left, Yan'er came to Bao Rong's side, and Bao Rong turned his head to the side, not looking at her.

"My lord, if you want to do something, just tell Yan'er." Bao Rong didn't say a word, but his waist bulged slightly, and Yan'er immediately stopped him, "My lord, don't move, Mr. Fu has ordered , your injuries are very serious and you cannot move around."

"You, you go out!" After a long time, Bao Rong murmured, "I, I want to be alone, quietly."

"But──" Yan'er wanted to say something again, but she still turned around unwillingly. After taking two steps, she heard a weak voice from behind again, "Go and take care of Xiaofu!"

"Oh!" Yan'er looked back at him again, then pouted and left.

Bao Rong was the only one left in the room. The injury on his buttocks made his head dizzy for a while. He clutched the quilt tightly, but still felt terribly painful.If he is by his side, he can get into his arms and act like a baby, and he will keep kissing and touching himself to make himself less painful.

Xiao Yan, why, why you don't want me anymore, did I do something wrong?

Tears began to flow down the cheeks slowly, and soon, a large area of ​​the bed sheet was soaked.

Where are you!

Even though I forced myself to forget that man countless times and stop loving that man, that broken heart still couldn't help but want to think, to love, and hoped that in this life, there would be a chance to let him see you again. To that person who only appears in dreams.

(10 coins) Xiao Yan in the carriage

Among the lush woods, a horse-drawn carriage galloped by.The person driving the carriage was dressed in a white shirt, with handsome features and a green jade flute tied around his waist. Looking closely, he was none other than the owner of Luoying Villa——Shi Luoying.

He raised his whip and hit the horse's buttocks. At the same time as the crisp sound of whipping sounded, there was a painful coughing sound from inside the carriage. He frowned, took out a small suet bottle from his pocket and held it Into the compartment, "Let him eat this."

In the carriage, Luo Wei took out the small bottle, pulled out the cork with his mouth and spit it aside, then handed the mouth of the bottle to Xiao Yan who was lying in his arms, and said with a faint anxiety in his voice: "Your Majesty, eat Some medicine."

Xiao Yan's face was pale. He had no clothes on his upper body, and a thick layer of gauze was wrapped around his shoulders. There was still a little scarlet oozing from the gauze. He opened his lips with some difficulty and swallowed the black pill. Luo Wei was very sad. She looked at him worriedly, with a hesitant expression.

"How is the situation of Bao and Baorong?" He asked in a low voice, with deep melancholy and guilt in his eyes.He kept scolding himself, why didn't he keep Baorong by his side, no matter how dangerous the palace was, Baorong was at least within his reach, unlike now, so far away from him, so far away It seems that we will never meet again.

"This—" Luo Wei hesitated for a moment, and then said: "He is very good. I received the letter from Fu Qingyu last night. In the palace, every day there will be palace maids bringing food."

He lied, he didn't tell Xiao Yan about Bao Rong's rape by Tuoba Hong and the rod punishment a few days ago, because he knew that with Xiao Yan's current physical condition, if he heard about these things again, it would be tantamount to making things worse .

It has been two or three days since Xiao Yan's collarbone on his left shoulder was pierced by a hook. Although the wound was not infected, the bumps in his eyes on the road made it difficult for the wound to heal. He set off every morning and went to the inn to rest at night. When Shi Luoying helped him check the wound , The wound that had just healed soon will burst open again.

Shi Luoying told him that if this situation continues, the wound will be difficult to heal and the chance of infection will increase.But Xiao Yan insisted on refusing to waste any time on the road, because he knew that Luo Wei didn't tell him everything, and his Rong'er might be suffering right now, enduring inhuman torture in a place he couldn't see torment.

"Your Majesty, should we find a place to stop and have a rest first, your injury can no longer be delayed, let Brother Shi show you the wound, otherwise──"

Xiao Yan waved his hands vigorously, and said in a weak voice, "No...no need, continue on your way."

"But, your majesty, you really can't wait any longer for your health. When brother Shi helped you look at your injury yesterday, he just- said that your wound has started to deteriorate, but it is not very serious. If we can take a rest One day, just—"

"That's enough, shut up!" Xiao Yan was suddenly furious, he straightened up suddenly, but because the movement was too large, the wound on his shoulder was affected, and he immediately bent down in pain, but he suppressed the pain and groaned hard Swallowed back into the stomach, every word
