The elite soldiers followed behind.

Xiao Yun took the rein and rode the horse to the palace, the previous scene kept appearing in his mind.

……

Xiao Yun jumped off the carriage, and Nan Pang's confidant held a sword, stared at him, and approached him densely, circle after circle.

Obviously, they have undergone years of rigorous training, and all of them are highly skilled in martial arts. They don't have the slightest fear of him, they only advance and never retreat, their eyes are red and crazy.

It seems that they thought that their master had been killed and wanted to take revenge on him.

Swords are on the verge of breaking out, and swords are everywhere.

Xiao Yun held the dagger, smiled lazily, and went deep alone, enemies everywhere, but his expression did not change, ready to kill at any time.

After all, each is in charge, he keeps his promise to let Xie Caiqing go, but Xie Caiqing may not keep his promise to let him go.

It doesn't matter, it's not that I can't get out.

He kept his promise, but he wanted to do it, and it had nothing to do with Xie Caiqing.

On the carriage, Xie Caiqing said, "It's okay, let him go."

Xiao Yun looked back at the carriage.

Hearing the man's voice, the confidant withdrew angrily in relief, still fearing that he would go back on his actions. Some people protected the carriage, and some surrounded him with weapons, keeping a distance of one or two meters from him, monitoring him until He stays away from the carriage.

His own people led the horse over, Xiao Yunfei got on the horse, and said calmly: "Let's go."

He didn't look back anymore, he was riding on the horse, his hair was flying, and he was unrestrained and unrestrained.

He has never stayed for a long time in his life.

On the first day of his birth, he was the crown prince. He thought that under the blessing of this title, he could spend his entire life comfortably without learning or skill. Maybe when his father died, he could rise to a higher level and become the emperor. , under the title of a higher level, continue to be lawless and bring disaster to the country and the people.

As a result, he had just remembered things, and he almost remembered the face of his mother. The queen was dead like a lamp, and his father, who loved him, also changed his face overnight.

Just because of a ridiculous rumor.

The magnificent palace with everything that one expects to find has turned into a simple, gray, dark and cold house, and the beautiful and gentle lady-in-waiting has turned into a bitter old eunuch.

He remembered that he was led to see his mother for the last time, and the mother held his hand. The former dignified and prosperous, the charm of the mother's world has become a mass of dead air, tightly wrapped around her, she took his hand, He was dying and said: "Yun'er, your mother is wrong. The world says your mother is kind, but now your mother understands that kindness that does not distinguish between good and evil is vicious. If it is not for your mother's indiscriminate distinction between good and evil, others will not listen to what you say. If you insist on following your father wholeheartedly, you won't be troubled for the rest of your life, it's your mother who hurt you."

She shed tears.

"In the future, you must be a clear-headed person, be a stingy person, be stingy with emotions, play with most people who are false, and only care about the sporadic people who treat you sincerely."

"Don't let your kindness hurt them."

Xiao Yun couldn't listen to anything, and nodded while weeping.

The queen mother laughed and said: "Your father is ruthless and ungrateful, but you don't want to learn from him in the future. If he can meet someone who treats him sincerely like your mother, of course you can meet him too. Don't be disappointed in the world. , you have to treat her well, don't let her down, let her be as sad as your mother, of course, don't be led by others, mother is selfish, I just want you to be free, not trapped by love, and always be yourself , chic and happy."

Xiao Yun cried and Zheng nodded.

The queen left.

Xiao Yun understood a truth at a very young age, the world is fickle, but change remains the same.

Nothing lasts forever.

So he has a cynical attitude towards everything, treats life as a game, and regards suffering as the door to promotion.

Maybe it's because he doesn't care, or maybe it's according to what mother said, he was in it, and he took a step back, maintaining a unique sobriety, this game, he played and won without knowing it, looking at those Those who were deeply involved were defeated and cried bitterly.

So he doesn't cherish everything he gets.

Food, no matter how delicious it is, no choice if it’s not good, where to live, he’s lived in that kind of place for so many years, and he’s still happy and happy, what else can he choose, people around him are hypocritical but If you can find fun for him, treat it as a business. After all, he has such a bad temper, and it’s not easy to coax him. He rewards him for whatever he wants. Anyway, he doesn’t care. If you can't get rid of the face, just throw it away and replace it with a batch of fresh and pleasant ones.

He used to always tell Xie Zhe that the emperor really didn't care much about him, it was just that he was the best at this and it was the easiest thing to do.

The corner of Xie Zhe's mouth twitched slightly, and he held back not to scold him.

It's actually the truth.

Gradually, he was labeled as ruthless, cruel and vicious.

When he heard Xie Zhe's joke, he just smiled, it really hurts to be idle, it's okay to talk to him.

Anyone who does what he wants looks like a ruthless person.

He just knows who he is.

He thought that he would never be planted in this life, and only others were planted on him to be devoted to him, but when he met such a little thing, he was planted, and it was not easy, and he lost his face.

He does not believe that there is a safe haven in the world, and he is his own safe haven.

Staying happily for a while, the future is still bright, the road is still far away, but Xie Caiqing is gone.

He is still the Xiao Yun who is so unattractive.

Emperor Xiao of Daning, how could he be so embarrassing because of this little matter?

It's easy to get together and get together, to be decent, and to give an explanation to my past self.

Xiao Yun made up his mind that he would never look back in this life.

He was riding the horse, and he did not look back, nor did he glance at the road behind him.

Until a poisonous needle as thin as a hair shot towards his back.

Xiao Yun sneered, and with a push of his index finger, the sleeve arrow tied on his right arm was on the shaft. He didn't turn around, and pointed at the man in the carriage with the tip of the arrow casually.

His poisonous arrow will only be faster than Xie Caiqing's poisonous needle.

There was a dull pain in his heart, but his hands were unambiguous. Xiao Yun's expression was cold, and he lightly pulled his index finger. The sleeve arrow was about to be shot in a second, but there was a scream from behind.

Two poisonous needles shot out from the carriage, one step ahead of him, one knocked out the poisonous needle behind his back, and the other stuck in the wrist of a confidant not far from the carriage.

The man's right hand with normal skin color swelled and turned black in the blink of an eye. He hugged his right hand and rolled on the ground in pain. The poisonous needles in his right hand also loosened and fell to the ground.

It was the cronies who were upset and plotted against him secretly, not Xie Caiqing.

Xie Caiqing saved herself?

Xiao Yun turned around in astonishment and looked at the carriage.

The person on the carriage said lightly: "Let's go."

Xiao Yun pulled the rein, looked back at the carriage going away, smacked his lips, didn't know what it was like in his heart, his handsome face was slightly gloomy, and he blinked and said with a carefree smile, "Let's go."

……

After returning to the palace, after scolding the commander, Xiao Yun felt completely at ease.

Xie Zhe knelt down with his hands, his expression somber: "It's a crime for me to die, even if your Majesty kills me, I will be willing."

"All right, all right, don't pretend to me," Xiao Yun waved his hands, and said impatiently, "Go and get fifty big boards by yourself, go home and lie down, don't dangle in front of my eyes, it's annoying."

Xie Zhe suppressed the smile on the corner of his mouth, and respectfully said: "Thank you for your grace."

Those who play the board are all Zhang Lingwei, his own people, the fifty big boards are like a joke, mainly for the officials to watch, and His Majesty has severely punished them.

After Xie Zhe left, Xiao Yun sat on the desk and suddenly felt a little idle.

"Yin Xian!"

Yin Xian, who was holding tea, came in at the sound, flatteringly said: "What is your Majesty's order?"

Xiao Yun frowned: "What do I usually do at this hour?"

"...was sleeping with Xie Caiqing."

"..." Xiao Yun's face darkened, "Before I say anything!"

Yin Xian wished to slap himself on the mouth, and now he will go to court in a while, Yin Xian tried hard to think back, and said: "Your Majesty usually wakes up early, if you can't sleep, you will get up and feed the birds for a while."

Anyway, he couldn't sleep for a while, Xiao Yun said: "Go, go and see my birds."

"Okay!" Yin Xian laughed.

Arriving at the promenade where the former palace man kept birds and was teased by him, Xiao Yun put his brows on his hips and frowned: "Why are there only so few birds left?"

The number of birdcages hanging on the eaves has changed from the original thirty or forty to three or four alone, and the birds inside have also changed from colorful to snow-white.

Yin Xian was silent.

"Ask you something!" Xiao Yun said impatiently.

When the emperor yelled, the voice was so shocking that Yin Xian was shocked all over and had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty is busy with things. Ten days ago, you were afraid that the birds would make noise. Xie Caiqing had a rest in the morning, and I let the slaves bring it up. Then I sent them to the Commander’s House to be raised, only a few favorites—”

Yin Xian checked his words and saw that His Majesty's face darkened, so he shut up wisely.

Xiao Yun looked at the few lonely white birds, the meridian on his forehead jumped, he was silent for a while, and said: "These few are also sent to the Commander's Mansion."

"……Yes."

Xiao Yun flicked his sleeves, turned around and went back to the bedroom. At the other end of the corridor, a young eunuch was walking this way with a birdcage. When he saw His Majesty, he immediately saluted: "Your Majesty, Wan An."

Yin Xian winked at him.

The little eunuch was puzzled.

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and his achievements will surpass the ages!"

Xiao Yun's footsteps paused, his eyes moved down, and fell on the only colorful bird in the long corridor in the hands of the little eunuch.

The bird hadn't seen Xiao Yun for a long time, and finally saw him, with dark eyes, shaking his head and thinking: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and his achievements are beyond compare!"

Xiao Yun sullenly said: "It, also sent to the commander's residence!"

Yin Xian wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly.

The bird couldn't understand human words, so it finally met its master, and shook its head vigorously: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and his achievements are beyond compare!"

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and his achievements will surpass the ages!"

Yin Xian wished he could put his hand into the cage and cover the bird's beak.

……

The number one scholar has evaporated from the world, the emperor of Nanpang has returned to Nanpang, Xie Zhe was beaten fifty times, and he was bedridden at home, Mr. Liu's expression became more and more distorted and difficult to understand. No, it's almost early in the morning, and he wished he would show up at noon a month ago.

The courtiers didn't care about this. After all, being an official in the court, pretending to be deaf and dumb is a knowledge that must be mastered. Curiosity and thirst for knowledge here are undoubtedly courting death.

Outside the emperor's bedroom, Yin Xian sighed.

His Majesty's mood in the past three days was like an avalanche, and the avalanche was worse every day. On the first day, he was very free and easy, like a fish in water, and as soon as he loosened the rein with the horse that had been tethered for a long time, he immediately had fun everywhere. I picked up all the hobbies I left behind in January and tried them one by one, and then they got worse and worse. I went out happily every time, and came back with a gloomy face after a while.

Yin Xian didn't need to think about it, he must have seen the two lively black and white ponies when he was walking the horse, and when he asked the general to go to the martial arts field to compete, he looked at the sword and remembered that he once taught the number one scholar how to dance with the sword.

Smell any fragrance, think of the sachet given by the champion, see any white, think of the clothes of the champion, wear any waist ornaments, think of the jade given to the champion.

During the meal, I thought of Zhuangyuanlang sitting across from him, chewing slowly, sitting in the inner room, remembering that I used to hide the beauty in the golden house, discuss autumn tax with the household department, and remembered that I once gave the key of the small treasury to Zhuangyuanlang.

Yin Xian shook his head.

For the past three days, he has been busy moving things to the commander's house, and moved all the things that reminded His Majesty of Zhuangyuanlang to the commander's house, just like those few birds.

The commander's house is full of stacks right now.

Yesterday, His Majesty attended the funeral of a certain courtier's ninety-year-old mother, and returned with a gloomy face.

Yin Xian wondered, didn't they all inform in advance, don't wear white for funerals, wear black instead, why is it still like this, and asked sideways, His Majesty said that it was strange to see black, and why was it strange, because funerals should wear white Yes, white...

Yin Xian is gone.

Just as he was wondering when he was going to be a head, the door behind him suddenly opened, and Xiao Yun, who was supposed to be asleep, was standing at the door wearing obscene clothes and shirtless. The palace maid trembled slightly in fright.

Yin Xian said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, this time is too early. The courtiers probably just fell asleep, so it's better to go to court in two hours."

"Who said I'm going to court!"

His voice was like a thunderclap, and the little eunuch shrank his neck like a scalded bastard.

It was still Yin Xian who had the courage and courage to bite the bullet and said: "Then...do you want to play something, Your Majesty?"

Xiao Yun was silent for a while, then said, "I'm going to command the envoy to sleep at home."

Yin Xian's heart skipped a beat, and before he had time to shout, the emperor had already picked up his outer robe and rushed out.

Yin Xian complained and hurriedly followed.

Arriving at the Commander's Mansion, the Commander's Mansion was brightly lit, and at the door, there were many figures inside, and it seemed that they hadn't slept, Xiao Yun was happy, and he said in his heart that Xie Zhe was really a duplicitous man, looking at Xi Jing's health, and staying up so late , it is so lively inside, maybe there is a banquet, singing and dancing.

Xiao Yun went in, and Xie Zhe greeted him neatly dressed.

As expected, Xiao Yun thought so, and said with a smile: "I still don't sleep at such a late hour, Commander is in good health."

Xie Zhe said: "Your Majesty will think about the number one scholar again, and this minister will be in poor health."

Yin Xian was shocked.

Xiao Yun's face suddenly sank: "What do you mention him for? What do you mean?"

Xie Zhe also had black eyes: "Your Majesty, my mansion is only that big. Before Xie Caiqing moved into your outer house, you sent all the more than 20 birds in the outer house to my minister to keep them here for ten days. A few days ago, more than 30 horses were sent from the palace. Three days ago, there were five or six horses. In the past three days, Taipu Temple sent two big horses and two small horses. Not to mention, there are also your snow-white dogs, cats and little foxes, all of which have been brought here. Your majesty is happy to be noisy, and my minister is happy to be quiet. Your animals are really too noisy. They bark at night. The whole house can't sleep."

Yin Xian turned his back and shrugged his shoulders.

"咴-"

As he spoke, he raised his head to the sky and screamed.

"..." Xiao Yun's face turned blue and white, "My grace, do you still despise it?"

Xie Zhe looked haggard: "How dare I, it's just that the temple of my servant is small, I really can't afford these pets, and I'm afraid that I'll neglect them, so your majesty should take them back earlier, or share some of the favors with the group Minister, so that the humble minister can bear it."

Xiao Yun's face darkened: "...let's talk about it tomorrow."

He walked to the inner room, Xie Zhe followed, Xu Shi couldn't bear it these days, he dared to say anything, and said: "Your Majesty, listen to my minister, if you want to thank Caiqing, it is useless to move things, because He's in your heart."

"Shut up," Xiao Yun sneered angrily, "I'll miss him? He's in my heart? When will you say such nasty and disgusting things? Who knows, it's just getting used to it. Is he so haunted?"

"Yes yes yes." Xie Zhe cooperated weakly.

His Majesty is full of energy and can afford to make a fuss. The people around him are probably peeling off because he broke up with his old lover. Xie Zhe and Yin Xian looked at each other, and it was the first time that they felt so sympathetic to each other.

The servants cleaned up, and Xiao Yun and Xie Zhe slept on the same couch.

When they were young, at the border, they often lay their pillows on the grass, listened to the sound of uniform armor when the army moved, looked up at the stars in the sky, and chatted about their life aspirations.

At that time, one was the abolished prince and the other was the son of a guilty minister. There was obviously a lot of sympathy, but there was no complaint or complaint. They only talked about the present, neither the past nor the future.

Later, one became the emperor, and the other became an important minister. They all said that the emperor was weak, especially the current emperor, but after so many years, the friendship between them is still there.

Xie Zhe was sleeping on the outside, there was no one else in the room at the moment, he said softly after a while, "Does Your Majesty have anything on your mind that you want to tell me?"

After waiting for a long time, but did not get a response, Xie Zhe said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I know this, but he doesn't miss you, and you still think about him. It's really embarrassing, isn't it?"

"Your Majesty, everyone has been released. If you want to open up, it's normal to have trouble getting through for a while."

Xie Zhe's tone softened a little, and as a good friend, he said in a gentle voice: "It's really impossible to marry a wife and have children. Once you get married, you can take care of yourself completely. To be honest, you are too busy. You have too much time. Thinking about it, I have to find something to do, and you are not a sticky person."

Taking the opportunity to persuade him to give birth to a son is also a matter of great joy, after all, according to His Majesty's enthusiasm before, the little prince probably has nothing to do in this life.

Xiao Yun has no offspring, and the government and the public have to fry the pot.Your Majesty will be twenty-five in a few days.

He didn't hear anyone answer for a long time, Xie Zhe asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty?"

He was answered by a small grunt.

"..."

Xie Zhe felt that he was thinking too much.

According to this posture, it will be fine in a few days.

Xu was exhausted, Xiao Yun slept so deeply that he couldn't even hear the barking of cats and dogs.

"..." Xie Zhe couldn't explain it to himself for a while, then closed his eyes, and his consciousness soon became blurred.

Half asleep and half awake, a heavy arm suddenly wrapped around his waist.

Xie Zhe had always been a light sleeper, so he opened his eyes suddenly with a horrified expression.

"Young Master..."

The voice of the person behind him was lazy and hoarse, with a dog-like intimacy, Xiao Yun began to untie his clothes too skillfully, Xie Zhe was so frightened that he fell off the bed, got up enduring the pain, and looked at the raving emperor on the bed .

Men are ashamed of being handsome, but they are really a little out of shape.

His eyes gradually moved down, and landed on a place of incomparable dignity.

Xie Zhe: "..."

The person in front of him disappeared, Xiao Yun began to push his bed, and said with a low smile: "Caiqing, I miss you, and it misses you too."
