It turns out that I too have been robbed.

Following the frequent good news from Weiguo, Pei Ruzhou also set foot on the road to Fengcheng again.

Even though he has been taking medicine for food, Pei Ruzhou's health still has ups and downs.But fortunately, when I returned to Fengcheng this time, even though it was already winter, I didn't encounter too much snow on the road.

After walking around like this for more than half a month, Pei Ruzhou and his party finally returned to the outskirts of Fengcheng.

At the same time, most of Weiguo's territory has been in Qi Baili's hands.

Even though he knew that Qi Baili would win, Pei Ruzhou was still surprised when he heard the news.And even he, who knew the ending long ago, was like this, let alone other people.

On this journey, Pei Ruzhou spent most of the time in his sleep.

When the carriage arrived at the outskirts of Fengcheng, he forced himself to sit up straight and pulled himself together.Seeing Pei Ruzhou like this, the people around him also became happy.

Everyone knows that Pei Ruzhou needs to rest, and he should be given a quieter and more comfortable environment.But it was rare to see Pei Ruzhou so energetic, and the people around him still raised their spirits together.

They seemed to be chatting, but in fact they were trying to attract Pei Ruzhou's attention, to help Pei Ruzhou cheer up, so that he would not fall asleep so quickly again.

While laying out a fruit plate for Pei Ruzhou, Cong Tao said to the guards in front of her, "I never thought that His Highness would be so powerful. It is said that when he goes to defend the country, it is like entering an uninhabited land, and no one can stop him." She said His tone was extremely exaggerated.

Probably because he has been in Zhoulan Pass all the time, and he and Qi Baili have known each other before.When they talked about Qi Baili, there was no flattery in their tone, and there was respect and fear for him, but it was extremely relaxed, as if they were talking about ordinary friends.

As soon as Cong Tao's voice fell, the guard suddenly said mysteriously: "...I heard rumors that when His Royal Highness was in Weiguo, he was always planning strategies. There were quite a few of his eyeliners there... ..."

eyeliner?

Hearing this, Pei Ruzhou, who was looking out the window, suddenly turned his eyes around.

Logically speaking, everyone now knows that Qi Baili will inherit the Datong.Gossiping about him behind his back is of course absolutely unacceptable.

It seems that Pei Ruzhou should stop it... But he never plays his cards according to the routine.

In fact, Pei Ruzhou was also very interested in what the guard said.Pei Ruzhou originally wanted to ask more carefully, or find out where he heard that sentence from him, but after thinking about it later, he felt that it was unnecessary.

The news has already reached here, and I am afraid that half of the Great Yi knows about it.What the guard said was most likely true.

After the initial surprise and doubt, it became clear.

Qi Baili has a very long-term vision. Since he can accomplish these things, he must have been prepared.He who grew up in Weiguo would definitely not be a simple young man who doesn't understand anything...Even if it's just for self-protection, Pei Ruzhou would never do nothing.

Not to mention that although the Wei State was once the most powerful country in the world, in fact, it has already begun to suffer internal losses.It is a simple matter to install eyeliner in such a country, or even to hollow out the entire country...

Thinking of this, Pei Ruzhou was suddenly taken aback by his own thoughts.

Qi Baili saw too much filth and darkness when he was young, and people who grew up in such an environment are naturally unscrupulous.They only need to wait for one thing to awaken the talent buried deep in their hearts... They don't even need to encounter that thing at all.

Just now, the people around Pei Ruzhou were still chatting.But seeing his current expression, the person who had just spoken suddenly fell silent.

——They found that Pei Ruzhou had really matured a lot. For example, at this moment, his eyes were hard to read.

When he came to Fengcheng for the second time, Pei Ruzhou was no longer the carefree son of the Pei family.

When the carriage reached the edge of Fengcheng, its speed also increased.

Just when everyone thought that it would not be long before they could see the city wall of Fengcheng, Pei Ruzhou suddenly heard a commotion coming from the front of the team.

"What happened in front?" Pei Ruzhou asked, and after saying these words, he couldn't help coughing again.

Pei Ruzhou's current state is still so bad. As soon as he spoke, he felt as if there were small feathers in his throat that were constantly tickling, dry and itchy.

Seeing this, the people around hurriedly gathered around and handed the tea to Pei Ruzhou.

Hearing his words, the guard immediately turned around to see what was happening outside.

Pei Ruzhou has recently gotten used to coughing from time to time.He originally wanted to drink water to press it down, but he didn't expect that after a few sips, the feeling in his throat not only did not disappear, but became more obvious.

And he felt a familiar fishy-sweet smell in his mouth.

is blood……

"Oh my god, what's wrong with you, son!"

Before Pei Ruzhou could say anything, Cong Tao called out loudly.

Even in the deep winter, even if Fengcheng is not as cold as Day Lan Pass, Pei Ruzhou still wears a white fox fur.Due to prolonged illness, Pei Ruzhou became thinner and thinner than when he was a teenager.

As if a gust of wind could blow it away.

Seeing her nervous look, Pei Ruzhou quickly waved his hands and said, "It's nothing serious..." At the end, he didn't forget to add, "By the way, don't tell the Princess."

"Yes yes yes!" Cong Tao agreed, but in his heart he was already too anxious, and he didn't keep Pei Ruzhou's words in his heart.

She directly opened the curtain and asked someone to bring warm water in.

As for Pei Ruzhou, even though he was used to vomiting blood every now and then, after coming down for so many times, coupled with the severe loss of vitality due to injury and poisoning, he still felt dizzy in front of his eyes.It even started tinnitus at the same time, blocking everything around it.

Pei Ruzhou instinctively leaned against the window frame, and in order to dissipate the bloody smell inside the carriage, Cong Tao just rolled up the curtains of the carriage.

A little bit of salt-like snowflakes floated in from the window, and happened to land on Pei Ruzhou's eyelashes.He just leaned here quietly, frowning slightly, and trying to adjust his breathing.

At this moment, no one cared about the commotion just now.

Although the blood on Pei Ruzhou's lips had been wiped off, the color of her lips was still as red as a cherry in late spring, especially against the backdrop of her pale face and white fox fur.

At this time Fengcheng was already under Qi Baili's control, and someone from Pei Ruzhou's team had come to pick him up a few days ago.

And the commotion outside now was caused by those people.

While serving warm water, Cong Tao casually asked the newcomer, "What happened outside? Why is it so noisy?"

The person who came shook his head, and said with some doubts: "It seems that someone wanted to come to see the young master, but was blocked by the group of guards."

"Oh, that's it..." Cong Tao didn't think much, she turned around and returned to the carriage with the water in her hand.

As for the guard who was sent out just now, he was shocked when he saw the person coming.

The person he saw blocked not far away turned out to be Qi Yunyao, the seventh prince!

"This..." After seeing Qi Yunyao, he also hesitated.It was also at this time that the guard remembered one thing - they are now in the outskirts of Fengcheng, which is where the imperial mausoleum is located.

He had heard that the relationship between Pei Ruzhou and Qi Yunyao was very good, but now that Qi Yunyao was directly blocked on the road, shouldn't he inform Pei Ruzhou that the other party is here now?

But when he saw the guard guarding here and not letting Qi Yunyao go forward, he became entangled again.

At this moment, the person standing in front of Qi Yunyao stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. The Sixth Prince has told you not to leave the imperial mausoleum at will."

Hearing this, Qi Yunyao glanced at him expressionlessly, and then said: "This is also within the scope of the imperial mausoleum, why do you want to take care of me?"

"Naturally dare not."

The guard sent by Pei Ruzhou felt that the other party's tone was a little aggressive, but what he didn't expect was that the more serious words were yet to come.

The man smiled and said: "Your Highness also said that no one is allowed to disturb Mr. Pei. I think Mr. Pei will be upset if His Highness Seventh appears here."

Qi Yunyao frowned and said nothing.

He tightened his grip on the reins... Qi Yunyao was used to losing his freedom, but he didn't expect that now he wouldn't even see Pei Ruzhou.

While several people were entangled here, the convoy was still moving forward slowly.

At this moment, Qi Yunyao saw Pei Ruzhou through the open window - he was sitting by the window with his eyes closed, looking extremely fragile.

On Pei Ruzhou's body, only his lips seemed to have a little color.

Qi Yunyao didn't know what heartache felt like before, but at this moment, he suddenly felt as if he understood something.

...It's like an ice surface that has already been covered with cracks. It looks calm on the surface, but it will fall apart with just a slight tap.

That glance just now suddenly broke Qi Yunyao's ice.His heart was like thin ice on the lake, suddenly shattered.Then there was unspeakable pain and suffocation.

"Ru Zhou..." Qi Yunyao squeezed out these two words with great difficulty.

He instinctively wanted to call Pei Ruzhou to stop, but he didn't expect that in the end, he couldn't make a sound at all.

... He remembered snake venom again.

Qi Yunyao had no idea how he should face Pei Ruzhou.

Even though he had already come here, Qi Yunyao still didn't dare to see Pei Ruzhou.

His heart was full of guilt and regret.

However, Qi Yunyao was helpless.

The wind and snow showed no signs of stopping, and the smell of blood in the carriage wafted to the tip of Qi Yunyao's nose.

At this time, the smell in the carriage was almost gone, and someone lowered the curtain.Pei Ruzhou's pale face just disappeared before Qi Yunyao's eyes.

The next moment, the carriage passed him by.
