At that time, everyone was resting by the roadside, Chu Wu was activating the muscles and blood of Chu Yu's injured leg, Gu Baiji was by Chu Wu's side, and An Yu was lying on the grass looking at the sky leisurely with a leaf in his mouth.

"Have you taken the medicine?" Chu Wu asked.

Chu Yu nodded, "Never once."

"That's good." Chu Wudao said, "Jian Su, I can't guarantee how effective this pill will be for your leg injury, but your body is adapting well, take it slowly, and there will always be a day when you will regain consciousness of."

"Okay." Chu Yu said with a light smile, "Actually, I'm used to it. It's not bad, and it leaves a lot of trouble, doesn't it? Brother Jiu, don't worry too much."

Chu Wu had no choice but to say, "I see Su, you are always worried that you will trouble others too much."

At this moment, a fast horse galloped past on the road in the distance, and An Yu got up when he heard the movement, looked at the distant shadow, and said with a smile, "Oh, I ran far away."

Sure enough, the horse quickly retreated back, and then stopped far away, the person on the horse turned over, hurriedly came to a few people and stopped, and hastily greeted Gu Baiji and the others.

Gu Baiji asked: "Come here at this time, but something happened in Beijing?"

"Yes." The visitor said, "According to the general's previous instructions, the subordinates dare not be negligent, and report quickly after receiving the news. There are indeed some accidents in the court."

As the man said, he subconsciously glanced at Chu Yu, hesitant to speak.

Chu Yu's heart jumped, and he wanted to avoid it, but seeing this situation, he couldn't help asking, "But it has something to do with me?"

The visitor nodded and looked at Gu Baiji again.

Gu Baiji probably guessed something, remembering what Chu Wutei had asked before, his brows were slightly frowned, and he nodded and said:

"But it doesn't matter."

Only then did the visitor report in a low voice: "General, the latest news today is that Sun Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites violated the Holy Wrath and has been suspended from his post and sent to prison. The concubine Ming was frightened and suddenly fell ill, and passed away at this hour!"

"Mother Concubine!" Chu Yu felt his eyes go dark, and subconsciously wanted to get up, but fell back due to the weakness of his legs and feet.

"See Sue!"

Chu Wu exclaimed, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, while An Yu, who was beside him, was faster and had already picked him up in his arms.

Gu Baiji also had a dignified expression, got up and ordered, "Quicken up and return to Beijing immediately."

But in one night, the capital city became completely cold, the wind came in through the door, blowing the white sails in the mourning hall, making it even more desolate and quiet.

It was almost midnight at this time, and the maids in the mourning hall were dismissed, only Chu Yu was kneeling on the futon in front of the coffin.

His legs and feet were weak, he couldn't kneel, and almost his whole body was sitting on it.

In just two days, Chu Yu had already lost a lot of weight, and her whole body seemed to be curled up, looking like a small ball.

"Mother, my son is late." Chu Yu's face was dead silent, and he knocked on the ground again and again, ignoring the redness and swelling on his forehead, and said mournfully, "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

It was his negligence, he clearly knew that the emperor was ruthless, and still had the last hope for him, it was he who miscalculated the emperor's viciousness, and left his mother alone in this man-eating deep palace.

It was his fault, obviously as long as he worked harder, all this could have been avoided.

It was because he was too dependent and relaxed under the protection of others, and did not take up the responsibility that he should have.

Chu Yu counted her sins one by one, her voice became softer and more desperate.

When Chu Wu came, he saw Chu Yu lying alone in the empty and dark mourning hall, dressed in sackcloth, Chu Wu felt sore and his eyes were slightly red.

"See Su!" Chu Wu called out, but Chu Yu still didn't move.

Chu Wu sighed lightly, took a step forward, picked up three sticks of incense and lit it, kowtowed respectfully, and burnt the incense.

"Your Majesty, go all the way!" Chu Wu recalled the unfinished words of Concubine Ming the last time we met, and said softly, "Chu Wu swore in front of Madam's coffin today that I will do my best in the future to protect Su and let him Have a happy life."

"Brother Jiu..." Chu Yu raised his head, looked at him fixedly, paused, and suddenly called out again in a hoarse voice, "Brother!"

"Hey!" Chu Wu felt sore, sighed softly, stepped forward and knelt down in front of Chu Yu, hugged him in his arms, and said in a low voice, "See Su, brother is here!"

Chu Yu collapsed in an instant, tears poured out of his eyes, and finally there was a sad look on that desperate face.

"Brother." Chu Yu filled every word with hatred, "I hate you so much!"

"See Su." Chu Wu patted him on the back, "Cry if you want, don't be afraid, brother is here."

Chu Yu lost his legs when he was very young. For countless days and nights, it was Ming Concubine who stood by his side, taking care of everything by herself.

I am afraid that he will be hurt and uncomfortable, that he will be hurt again, and that he will feel inferior because of his physical disability.In the deep palace where people eat people but don't spit out their bones, the concubine Ming did almost everything she could for Chu Yu.

It's just that Chu Wu never thought that in the end she would give up her life for Chu Yu without hesitation.

Thinking of what Gu Baiji said before, Chu Wu felt even more cruel.

However, before he could open his mouth, he heard Chu Yu lying in his arms, with an irrepressible hatred in every word, "Brother, mother, she was killed by that person because of me."

"See Su!" Chu Wu was startled, then lowered his voice, "Be careful that the walls have ears."

"Hehe." Chu Yu left from his arms, lowered his head with a sneer, and mocked, "Brother, don't worry, my mother is dead, grandpa is in prison, I'm just a useless cripple, there's no need to monitor me anymore gone."

What's more, there are only his people around the mourning hall.

"See Su, how do you know this?" Chu Wu held his shoulders. Originally, this was what he wanted to say to him, but at this moment, hearing Chu Yu say it by himself, he still felt very unbearable.

"I should have known earlier, didn't I?" Chu Yu looked up at him with despair and sadness on his face, "Brother, it's all my fault, I still believe him, thinking that he is my father after all. I thought , It's just an intrigue among concubines, he won't interfere in these things, but I never thought he would be so cruel."

The emperor is really contradictory. Among his sons, who he values ​​has nothing to do with ability, but depends on his mood.But for someone like Chu Yu who is already physically disabled and destined to be unable to win the throne, he can actually love him a little bit and give him some pure father-son affection.

So he used to really love Chu Yu.Just when his legs were destined to be unable to stand up, when Chu Yu was full of fear, it was the emperor who favored him even more than before, so that his growing up in the palace would not be too difficult.

Even if he later found out that the emperor's nature was like this, and that his love was based on his pain, Chu Yu was truly grateful for that period of time.

Chu Wu knows that some things have never been obtained, so it doesn't matter to lose.But like Chu Yu, who obviously gave him warmth, and then spread the unbearable truth in front of him in such a cruel way, is the real cruelty.

This time Sun Yan was imprisoned and Concubine Ming passed away, everything was such a coincidence, once he made a move, he grabbed the lifeline of the Sun family.

However, the Sun family is not an ordinary family of officials and eunuchs. As a noble family that has lasted for hundreds of years, even if the head of this generation intends to keep a low profile, Sun Yan is not that kind of publicity person, but that is not something that ordinary people can easily move.

Otherwise, if the Sun family recklessly counterattacked, the consequences would be unbearable for ordinary people, except for one person, the one who stood at the top of Jokhang's power and was above tens of thousands of people, the emperor.
