He murmured softly, his golden-brown eyes gradually dimmed, and his eyes fell through the condensed darkness to the end of the distant memory.

"...Later...he died..."

When Yi Tao heard these words, he was standing in the water corridor, the koi in the blue pool water was surging, and the torrential rain outside was rushing down, washing over the cracks of the tiles and converging into rivers.

Chen Bo stood behind him, wearing an ugly bronze mask, standing coldly until Yi Tao asked softly: "...Did he... say anything else?"

"...He also did something that may make the king regret it."

Yi Tao only felt that the forehead was twitching violently, so he pressed it hard, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down, before asking in a low voice: "...What? Say it."

Chen Bo's golden pupils looked at Yi Tao's back from behind the mask. After a while, he stepped forward, spread his palms, and presented a crystal clear pill to Yi Tao.

"Your Majesty, this is An Luo Dan that you asked for. Yi Luojia is currently staying in the old way of Eastern Mongolia. If you send someone to send it quickly, maybe it will be in time."

Yi Tao seemed to have been hit in the head with a sap, and suddenly turned around, staring at the pill, his whole body trembling slightly: "...Dark Luodan? Where... come from?!"

Chen Bo looked at Yi Tao indifferently: "Reporting to the king, although the last medicinal material An Luodan needs is the heart of a cat, it would be okay if it was replaced by the heart of a psychic."

"Psychic?" A chill came from behind, and Yi Tao stood there, his eyes turned black, his throat was so dry that he could hardly make a sound, "...Psychic... Could it be..."

"Ye Yun never told you that he was once the most spiritual among the ten male witch spirits in the Chen Kingdom." Chen Bo handed An Luodan to Yi Tao's hands, and Yi Tao's fingertips were almost as cold as ice.

"He said, this is the last thing he can do for you." Uncle Chen said softly, "It's also the fool in that joke...the last foolish thing he will do in this life."

The author has something to say: I was absent-minded just now... I opened the wrong word file, and almost sent the director's saved manuscript as the prince's... That would be a tragedy ==

Meditate a hundred times: There will be a turning point, there will be a turning point, there will be a turning point...

40 Funeral

The old road of Eastern Mongolia is adjacent to the Kingdom of Shang, and the rainy season in Elbe did not last long. The torrential rain came and went quickly, and the next morning had turned cloudy. In the evening, the sun poured out golden rays from behind thick clouds. The brilliance is not as dazzling as usual, but it is extraordinarily soft.

Su Yue stood beside the grain road, looking at the steep and steep mountains in the distance, slightly fascinated.The weeds at the feet stood with crystal drops of water, showing a magnificent transparent red under the reflection of the sky.

The red sunset slowly descended to the top of the mountain, like a smashed egg, dripping out a thick orange slurry. For a while, the sun's blood dyed the turbulent clouds into a mottled and dazzling sea of ​​flames, large swaths of red, blood-colored, The color of maple, with a touch of thin gold splashed all around, so warm and brilliant, it instantly ignited the whole Wentianya.

"Second brother."

Suddenly someone called him from behind.

Su Yue turned around, and under the backlight, a pair of clear eyes looked at Su Xie who was not far away.

Su Xie's footsteps stopped, and a fleeting desire flashed in her eyes.Su Yue's eyes are the most expressive ink paintings he has ever seen. The lines contain the softness of water, and the pupils are a deep ink color that seems to be able to absorb people.

The blend of ink and wash, a few hastily brushed the straight and thick eyelashes, is the unique hazy feeling of painting the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

Looking back for a moment, the sunset glow behind Su Yue is like a flying red maple, falling gorgeously all over the sky.

"... What's the matter?" He brushed his forehead hair, and smiled at Su Xie. Porcelain's white and delicate face looked very soft, but still couldn't hide the tiredness in the corners of his eyes.

Only then did Su Xie come back to her senses, and said with a blushing face, "Second brother, it's very windy outside...you can go to the account."

Su Yue shook his head: "It's too stuffy inside, come out to get some air."

"Then...then I'll stand with you." Su Xie walked over and looked into the distance on the grassy slope. Not far away was the border of Shang Kingdom, and the steep Tianya was immersed in the scarlet sea.Su Xie turned her head and asked, "Second Brother, what are you looking at?"

"...that place." Su Yue looked at the not-so-distant cliff. It was the most beautiful and splendid place in his childhood. He remembered that it was such a sunny day after the rain. There were even small potholes on the muddy ground. pool.

The pool reflects the reflection of a boy, his trouser legs are rolled up high, he is so clean and gentle, as if he came from another world without dust.Those beautiful eyes are like the sky after the clouds and fog have cleared, so sincere, calm, and clear.

"That place..." Su Yue closed his eyes, "... I can't go back again. And... I don't want to go back."

"Ask Tianya?" Su Xie looked in the direction of his gaze, "That is our territory, why can't we go back?"

Su Yue shook his head and did not answer.

He thought that Su Xie would not understand what was on his mind, but he inadvertently missed the trace of red jealousy in his younger brother's eyes.

Su Yue sighed and asked, "Yi Luojia...how is he?"

"I just took the ginseng soup, and I'm already asleep." Su Xie paused, and then said, "Second brother, why didn't you take him back to Wangcheng to find the antidote? Maybe there's still time."

Su Yue shook his head: "His body can't stand the bumps anymore. I can only send someone to the imperial capital to get the medicine, and I can't go there in person."

Su Xie called out: "Second Brother..."

"Ok?"

"Do you like him very much? The Elbe nobleman?"

Su Yue said lightly: "...Why do you ask this?"

Su Xie bit her lip: "It just feels wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"Second brother, as the crown prince of the Shang Kingdom, is the crown prince recognized by his father. Even if you were taken into captivity and your life and death are unknown, he never made another crown prince. Second brother, you can't..."

Su Yue interrupted him: "Absurd, how could it be such a joke. I have been plundered for so long, and my father did not appoint another prince. It's not out of concern for love. I'm afraid it's... the choice between you and elder brother, which made him embarrassed. right?"

Unexpectedly, Su Yue would get the point right, Su Xie blushed slightly, a little embarrassed, and then said: "Second brother, no, I never thought of competing with elder brother for the throne, I..."

"Don't lie to me." Su Yue said coldly, "You think I'm a fool?"

Su Xie panicked, her beautiful black eyes opened wide, and she shook her head.

Su Yue said: "If you don't want to fight for power, why did you ask yourself to lead the army to attack Dongmeng at this time?... You know that the worst thing your brother is good at is fighting. You may not have the intention of taking credit for this move at this time. It's too obvious, the fishy smell sticks to your lips, do you think others can't smell it? Su Xie, don't be too crazy."

"Second brother, I definitely don't mean that." Su Xie hurriedly explained, "I... how could I fight for power with elder brother? I lead the army just to share the worries of my father, not to mention that although elder brother is not good at fighting, he is good at fighting. Servant, he will not go out to fight, and he will fight for him with the Great General Breaking Ni, I—"

Su Yue interrupted him, and said lightly: "General Nangong Jinyan, the disobedient general, is naturally the eldest brother's confidant, but...do you dare to say that you don't have many followers?"

Su Xie pursed her lips and was about to speak when suddenly a soldier ran over from a distance, gave a military salute in front of the two of them, and said, "His Royal Highness, Second Young Master, there is a person at the entrance of the camp who claims to be the envoy of Elbe." , come to visit."

Su Xie narrowed her eyes: "Oh? Envoy Elbe? That means the exact movements of our army have been known to the enemy?"

After a pause, he asked again: "What information does the outpost officer have?"

"There is no enemy situation. Although the Elbe army has left the city to fight, it is extremely difficult to march due to the continuous rain. It is still lingering near Luoshui."

"...The envoy came alone?"

"Yes."

"..." Before Su Xie could answer, Su Yue frowned and asked suddenly, "The envoy can explain why he came here?"

"The envoy didn't say much, he just said that he wanted to see..." He hesitated for a moment, then continued, "...I want to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

As soon as he said these words, the two brothers were startled, and then looked at each other in blank dismay.The news of Su Yue's round with the Shang army was only known to a few people even in the military camp, but the envoy from Elbe mentioned that he wanted to see Su Yue by name. The accuracy of this kind of information was really surprising.

"Call him into the camp, and I'll wait in the big tent." After Su Yue said that, he walked towards the camp with Su Xie.

The empty cell was cold and damp, and the crevices of the stone bed were covered with sweet blood ointment, which had turned dark red due to the passage of time.

The iron door opened with a creak, and the black clothes swept across the wet ground. Someone walked in, pulled down the hood of the cloak, and stood quietly watching in front of the stone bed.

The corpse on the bed has already been carried away, and it will be time for encoffining in a few moments.

"I... have fulfilled your last wish on your behalf. Can you rest in peace?" His golden eyes looked at the stone bed through the bronze mask, and after muttering these words, he bent down and held Putting it on the chest, it sweeps out an extraordinarily elegant arc.

This is the hand gesture of sending the soul back to heaven when the Wu Ling of Chen Guo passed away.

After Chen Bo finished all this, he stood alone in the cell for a while, then put on his cloak again, and left this small cell silently, which had witnessed the painful departure of countless lives.

Ye Yun’s funeral was held in Yaoshan, and not many people came, because Yi Tao ordered, the secret thick funeral leaf was written, the funeral was at the same level as the royal family, and the coffin was buried in the Sunda which is under construction in Yaoshan.
