2. Sacrifice to the Dead
Kersh is located between the Kingdom of the Rising Sun and the Nordic countries. Hundreds of miles to the south is Yongjing, the tax-heavy land of the Rising Sun Kingdom, and a thousand miles to the north is Mingyang, the land of dragon prosperity in the Dongyue Kingdom, which is a battleground for military strategists.
The Shengjia people have been living here for hundreds of years. Because the two countries are staring at each other with covetous eyes, the soldiers have suffered successive years for hundreds of years, making the people of this group fierce and all the people are soldiers.Although the Shengjia clan had no choice but to surrender to the Kingdom of Rising Sun more than 100 years ago, they have hidden a strong character of refusing to surrender. Over the past century, they have surrendered four times and rebelled four times, causing headaches for successive emperors of the Kingdom of Rising Sun.
Later, Mo Batian, a courageous and wise patriarch of the Shengjia clan, had long been determined to win the world. After many years of planning, he finally succeeded his predecessor Yu Lie and once again raised the rebellion flag and waved his troops northward.Although the Shengjia clan was defeated in the end, the cavalry of the Shengjia clan smashed half of the country and shocked the world.
And this Mo Batian is Mo Yichen's father.After the Shengjia clan surrendered, Mo Batian committed suicide, and the seven-year-old Mo Yichen was adopted by the then emperor of the Rising Sun Kingdom, Chu Aoqin, as his adopted son, and he lived in Taijing, the capital of the Rising Sun Kingdom.Everyone knows that Mo regards Chenming as his righteous son, but in fact he is his hostage.Therefore, the Shengjia clan has been very peaceful for more than ten years.
But such a powerful ethnic group, and in such an important position, has always been a hidden danger for the two countries.Four years ago, taking advantage of the domestic turmoil in the rising sun, the Dongyue Kingdom suddenly sent troops to recruit the Shengjia tribe, but on the day of surrender, they showed the butcher knife to the Shengjia tribe. Only the patriarch Mo Yichen remained.
To this day, if you dig a foot in the land of Korsh, you can still see the bones.
Mo Yichen lifted the brocade curtain of the carriage and looked at this vast land. Kersh's winter is severe and the vegetation is difficult to grow, only the dead lantern flowers bloom more and more beautifully.But this flower can only grow in Kersh, if it leaves the land of Kersh, it will wither.Back then, Xue Lingyun dug a pot of Kersh's soil and transplanted a dead lantern flower to Mo Yichen, but it withered after only two years of planting.
The past is vivid, but it has changed beyond recognition.Looking up at the dead lantern flowers that are not afraid of the severe cold, although the mountains and plains are everywhere, the plain white petals are dyed a bright red, and I can't help but feel sad.
Looking back on his life, it can be described as full of twists and turns.He lost his father at the age of seven and went to Thailand as a hostage. Although the former emperor Chu Aoqin treated his adoptive son very kindly, he was walking on thin ice.When Chu Aohan killed his brother to seize the throne, Xue Lingyun broke through and came out to seek refuge with the second prince Ye Chenxi of Dongyue Kingdom.His tribe also took advantage of the chaos to take him back to the tribe, and they have been separated from each other ever since.
He kept thinking afterwards that if everything stopped here, even if he was left to die alone, he would have no complaints.However, some things are predestined and cannot be controlled at all.
Thoughts were spinning and turning, but he couldn't help the grief in his heart, and Mo Yichen's eyes were stained with misty tears.
Ye Qingxiao naturally understood what was on his mind, and didn't want to disturb him, so she closed her eyes and rested her mind.
After a while, Mo Yichen's voice came from next to his ear: "Do you still remember this place, Your Majesty?"
Ye Qingxiao suddenly opened her eyes, and cast her eyes out of the window, what caught her eyes were the dead lanterns all over the field, like fresh blood.Although the scenery here was somewhat different from four years ago, he immediately recognized that this was ten miles outside the holy city, which was the place where the Shengjia clan descended back then.
Mo Yichen glanced back at Ye Qingxiao, and said with a faint smile, "This is the place where Your Majesty and the subject first met."
That year, the Dongyue Kingdom turned its back on its promise and started killing suddenly after they surrendered. They had already abandoned their weapons and were powerless to resist.Under the rush of anger, Mo Yichen saw Ye Qingxiao who suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and knew that he must be a person of high status.In order to force the Dongyue Kingdom to retreat, he shot Ye Qingxiao in the chest without hesitation, almost killing him.
From the moment he shot that arrow, he embraced the will to die.However, instead of killing him, Ye Qingxiao treated him very respectfully.After getting along with each other for a long time, he actually developed a feeling of meeting a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers, which made him willing to break his oath to assist Ye Qingxiao, step by step to the position of the national teacher of the East Yue Kingdom.Until now, I have never regretted it.
Looking at Mo Yichen's magical appearance, Ye Qingxiao felt as if she had been in a lifetime: "This is the place where I first met Yichen, how could I forget it."
"If His Majesty had killed the minister back then, what would happen now?" Mo Yichen grabbed the warm blanket that was slipping away, and slowly tidied it up, his expression has returned to calm.
Although Ye Qingxiao promised not to kill him before the battle, how many people still did not change their original intention after experiencing life and death struggles?This bearing alone is worthy of his friendship.
Ye Qingxiao said with emotion: "Perhaps there is always a destiny in the dark, even though we always want to control our destiny with our own hands, but after going around, everything is still within the destiny."
Mo Yichen heard the words and knew that he thought of Kang Wang Ye Chenxi, so he fell silent.
The carriage had already entered the holy city at some point, and was speeding along the deserted stone road, and finally stopped at Yingyue Residence, Mo Yichen's former residence.The guards had already arranged everything in advance, and when they entered the Shadow Moon Residence, the guards had already set up a table of meals.
After running around for several days, Ye Qingxiao and Mo Yichen were all dyed in the color of wind and smoke, and they went to rest after dinner.
The next day, Ye Qingxiao and Mo Yichen personally lit candles on the bank of the Panyue River, and filled the river with paper boats. They were dressed in plain clothes, with solemn expressions, and their ink-like black hair was tied behind them with hemp rope. The sleeves of the clothes are flying, as bright as snowflakes.
They quietly watched the paper boat go with the water and gradually disappeared from sight.There are some people and some things in this world, no matter how vigorous they were, they are only a few strokes in the history books in the end.
Mo Yichen recalled the wish he had made when he sacrificed to the dead: May the world be peaceful forever.
I only hope that there will be no more poor people in the world, and no other tribe will repeat the tragedy of the Shengjia tribe.For this wish, he broke his vow to never help the Dongyue Kingdom, and parted ways with the person he loved the most.
After sighing softly, he picked up the paper money on the ground, lit it with a candle, and then put it on the ground to let it burn slowly.The soft fire light reflected on his white face, and the eyes full of water were faintly visible.
When the candles were burnt out, the sun was almost dusk, and the candle tears on the river bank had already dried up, leaving only a layer of cool white.
Mo Yichen picked up a basket of food and wine that was placed on the ground, and said to Ye Qingxiao: "Your Majesty, I still have to go to the Holy Mountain to pay homage to my deceased father, why don't you go back to Shadow Moon Residence to rest first, Your Majesty!"
Since Mo Yichen paid homage to his late father, Ye Qingxiao could not disturb him, so he had to transfer half of the guards to follow Mo Yichen to the holy mountain.After Mo Yichen left, he had nothing to do for a while, so he took a walk along the Panyue River.
The river water is so clear that you can see a few petals drifting away with the water, and then disappearing again, just like the heroes in the history books, I will go on stage after you sing, but they will all be ashes under the ages.
Feeling overwhelmed for a moment, he ordered someone to fetch the wine.
After a while, a guard came back from fetching the wine, Ye Qingxiao took the wine jar, tore open the seal, a burst of wine scented the nostrils, which lifted people's spirits, it was the rose dew brewed by Heng Wang Ye Youran himself.He held up the wine jar, raised his head and took a few sips, poured some more into the Panyue River, then lightly lifted his clothes, sat on a boulder by the river bank, and drank slowly against the twilight.
When the twilight turned thick, the wine jar in Ye Qingxiao's hands had bottomed out, he forgot for a moment, and forgot that this wine had a strong aftertaste, and it was most taboo to drink too much.He threw the wine jar and staggered two steps when he stood up, the guard who had just taken the wine immediately stepped forward to support him.At this moment, Ye Qingxiao smelled a faint scent of incense from that person, his expression changed suddenly, he immediately took two steps back, and shouted: "Come on, catch him!"
The man reacted very quickly, he had already caught up with Ye Qingxiao as he retreated, and his strike was as fast as lightning, and he grabbed Ye Qingxiao's throat in the blink of an eye. : "Who sent you?"
When all the guards saw this, although they were extremely anxious, they did not dare to step forward rashly, so they could only shout: "Bold madman, let Your Majesty go quickly."
The assassin just looked at Ye Qingxiao carefully for a moment as the turbulent wind passed through his ears, took out the dagger from his sleeve pocket, waved it back and forth in front of Ye Qingxiao's eyes, and asked leisurely: "How does Your Majesty know that I am a fake?"
Although his appearance seemed casual, his eyes were as cold as ice, making people feel as if they were falling into cold water.
Although Ye Qingxiao is under the control of others, she is fearless: "The incense on your body is a tribute from the Rising Sun Kingdom. It is very precious and cannot be used by ordinary people. Besides, my guards go out with me, so how can I have leisure time to use incense?"
The assassin laughed lightly when he heard the words: "I have heard that the emperor of Dongyue has a clear vision, and seeing him today, it is indeed true."
As his laughter sounded, dozens of men in black attacked Ye Qingxiao's guards, the two sides fought together, the shadows of swords and swords made it hard to keep one's eyes open, and the blood foam was flying everywhere, and the smell was pungent.
Ye Qingxiao's expression finally changed slightly, and he asked in a cold voice: "Are you sent by Chu Aohan?"
The man snorted coldly: "He still can't send me."
Ye Qingxiao got drunk, she couldn't stand for a while and fell towards the man, her white neck bumped against the dagger, the man was startled when she saw this, and quickly took a step back.Ye Qingxiao seized the opportunity to hit the man's chest with an elbow, and immediately heard a muffled groan, he jumped back, seeing the man's repeated tricks and reaching out to grab him, immediately fell to the ground, kicked with both feet, It hit the man's lower abdomen.
At this time, a guard rushed over, blocked the man's pursuit, and shouted to Ye Qingxiao: "Your Majesty, go first!"
Hearing this, Ye Qingxiao immediately ran towards the direction of the holy mountain, with the clanging of swords behind her and the sound of bones cracking, it was shocking.Although he knew that he was at the critical point of life and death, he was unable to do what he wanted, and every step he took seemed to exhaust all the strength in his body.He was startled, knowing that it wasn't just the stamina of rose dew, there might be other medicines added to the wine.
After staggering a few times, he heard the sound of piercing through the sky, he quickly drew his sword to meet the enemy, but the alcohol and medicine made his movements very slow.Before he could turn around, a palm hit his back, he felt a pain in his chest, his blood was surging, and a hot current ran up his throat, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood mist.
Before he recovered his breath, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and the assassin had already pressed his dagger against his neck, the piercing sword energy reflected his face as pale as a pistil, and even made him dizzy for a moment.
"What did you drink in the wine?" Ye Qingxiao was already full of strength at this moment, if the man hadn't stabilized his body, he might have collapsed at this moment.
The man sneered when he heard the words: "Don't worry, it's not poison, it's just loose tendons." After finishing speaking, the man purposely increased his grip on the dagger, Ye Qingxiao felt a stabbing pain in his neck, and a few drops of blood slowly slid down the dagger, dyed his neckline red.He looked at the man without fear and asked, "What do you want?"
There was a cold smile on the man's lips: "You will know soon."
Ye Qingxiao was still full of doubts, but the man was obviously impatient, he slashed at the back of his neck with a hand knife, he felt a gust of wind blowing, and immediately felt a pain in the back of his neck, and passed out.
The author has something to say: Mo Fei knows that this chapter is very long-winded, and he has a lot of ink on Mo Yichen and the Shengjia clan, but because these things will be involved later, he must explain clearly.The next chapter, Xiao Gong, is about to appear, I hope you will wait patiently~~~
3. No companion
When he woke up, Ye Qingxiao felt dizzy. His eyes were covered by a black cloth and his hands were tied behind his back. He couldn't feel day and night. He could only feel that he was tied to the horse's back from the bumps below him and the loud sound of hooves. superior.The feeling of hanging upside down was very uncomfortable, the rope rubbed against his skin due to the jolt, blood had already ooze in some places.
He tried to move his hands, but couldn't.A pang of hunger in his belly, the feeling of empty stomach and dizziness of hanging upside down made him feel nauseous.
"Your Majesty is awake?" The cold voice came from the ear, it was the assassin.
Ye Qingxiao resisted the feeling of discomfort, and asked: "Where are you going to take me?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'll be there soon."
Ye Qingxiao forced herself to calm down.There is King Heng sitting in the middle of the capital, and Mo Yichen is here, so there will be no trouble for the time being.But over time, it is inevitable that the news will be leaked.He originally wanted to leave clues, but the assassin's attack was too fast, he passed out before he could do it, and now even he himself doesn't know where he is, wondering if King Heng and Mo Yichen can find him?
Ye Qingxiao began to plan drowsily how to escape, and when he came to his senses, the horse had already stopped.He didn't wear a cloak today, and now the cold wind hit his face, making him chill all over, and he couldn't help shivering.
Someone lifted him off the horse, put him on his shoulders, and continued on.From the sound of footsteps, there were at least a dozen people around him.After walking for a while, the dozen or so people around him stopped in their tracks, and only the one carrying him continued walking.
"Your Highness, someone brought it here." The assassin's voice sounded beside Ye Qingxiao's ear, but it was not the cold tone Ye Qingxiao was used to, but with a hint of tenderness.
"Bring it in!" The man's voice was a little low and very pleasant, but it sounded like thunder in Ye Qingxiao's ears. His whole body trembled, and he subconsciously turned his face to the place where the sound came from, but suddenly remembered that he couldn't see now. , I was so anxious that I wished I could immediately lift the black cloth over my eyes and see the man's face clearly.
The man who was carrying him responded, walked about ten steps, and then put him down.The sound of the wind gradually subsided, Ye Qingxiao felt her body warming up gradually, and occasionally she could hear the sound of firewood sticks burning.
"Get back first!" The deep voice sounded again, and Ye Qingxiao's heart throbbed again, almost unable to control herself.
When the sound of footsteps faded away, Ye Qingxiao's chin was pinched with both hands, and the low voice sounded again: "I never imagined that His Majesty the Emperor of Dongyue would be in such a mess, if your subjects saw it, how would they react? "
Ye Qingxiao didn't care about the slightly sarcastic words, but said anxiously: "Let me see your face."
The man smiled for a while, and breathed on Ye Qingxiao's face. The familiar yet unfamiliar feeling made Ye Qingxiao confirm his guess. Before the man could answer, he asked again : "Are you Chen Xi?"
Back then, he watched Ye Chenxi's burial with his own eyes, and he never doubted Ye Chenxi's death.Now that this voice and this familiar aura are in front of him, is it really an illusion?
Could it be because he was drugged?Thinking of this, he immediately calmed down, but his hands tied behind his back still couldn't help shaking.
The man snorted coldly: "Unexpectedly, Brother Huang still remembers my younger brother. It's really touching."
That ice-like voice pierced Ye Qingxiao's heart like a sharp blade. In his memory, Ye Chenxi had never spoken to him in such a tone, even when they were fighting for power most fiercely, Ye Chenxi She would still say to him tenderly and helplessly: "If my father wants to kill you, I will intercede for you."
Is he really in a dream?
In a trance, the black cloth covering his eyes was torn off, Ye Qingxiao narrowed his eyes subconsciously, Ye Chenxi's face clearly appeared in front of his eyes, the originally free and easy eyebrows were stained with frost, and his eyes were like Looking at him like a falcon, the red flames flickered on Ye Chenxi's resolute face, making it even more strange.
"Chen Xi, are you... still alive?" He really wanted to touch the face in front of him that resembled him to make sure it was not a dream, but his bound hands made him unable to do what he wanted, only a slightly hoarse voice showed express his excitement.
Ye Chenxi sneered and said: "I'm still alive, are you surprised? What method do you want to use this time to put me to death? Or you can kill me again, and then collapse this cave, causing me to save you And the illusion of sacrifice."
After a pause, he continued slowly, "Just like two years ago."
Ye Qingxiao was startled, her face turned pale as paper: "What are you talking about? How could I kill you?"
"Brother Huang, what can't you do for the throne? In order to save you, I even refused to wait for the army to arrive, so I ventured up the Tianshan Mountain alone. But you took the opportunity to kill me. In the past two years, when you looked at your heart at night, Have you ever blamed yourself?"
Ye Qingxiao stared blankly at the cold and charming Ye Chenxi, and it took a long time to utter a word: "Chenxi, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand at all?"
"Brother Huang really doesn't understand, or is he pretending not to understand? Brother Huang knows best what happened back then, so how can he ask his younger brother instead?" Ye Chenxi stared at Ye Qingxiao with a cold and intimidating gaze, lips Pan still wore a mocking smile.
Ye Qingxiao looked at him for a long time, still as if in a fog, so she could only ask in a low voice: "Chen Xi, what's wrong with you? You know what happened back then, why are you talking nonsense?"
"Thanks to the emperor's gift, my brother has lost his memory." Ye Chenxi put away the smile on her lips, and the sound of gnashing of teeth could be heard faintly.
Ye Qingxiao was shocked again, and in a flash of thought, she forced herself to calm down, and asked: "Who saved you back then? And who told you this?"
A few figures quickly flashed in his mind. If he could save Ye Chenxi, make him fake his death, and take him away from the imperial mausoleum silently, this person must be an extraordinary person.
Ye Chenxi snorted, and sat down beside him: "It was Chu Aohan who saved me, he has a plant of orchid grass in his hand, which can bring the dead back to life, but after taking it, he will be suspended for a month and will lose his memory forever. "
Hearing this, Ye Qingxiao seemed to be immersed in the cold, her face was frighteningly pale, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "Chu Aohan is the emperor of the enemy country, so he has no purpose in sacrificing a plant of Orchid Youcao to save you? Yes Haven't you ever doubted his words?"
Ye Chenxi's red phoenix eyes will look back at Ye Qingxiao with a smile on her face: "Of course I don't believe what he said, but what about our own uncle? Should I believe it? He won't frame you for no reason, right?"
Although they were not born from the same mother, their mothers were sisters. They were once intimate, but in the end there was only deep-rooted hatred left.After Ye Qingxiao's mother, Concubine Lan, passed away, her originally neutral uncle Du Bufan suddenly expressed support for Ye Chenxi and became the backbone of the King Kang faction.
Ye Chenxi has always relied heavily on Du Bufan, this reliance has not changed even if he lost his memory, it will change, maybe it is only the relationship between him and Ye Chenxi?Thinking of this, Ye Qingxiao felt like a knife was piercing her heart.
Seeing his silence, Ye Chenxi thought he had nothing to say, so she sneered and continued, "If uncle's words are not to be believed, what about my mother? Although she was driven crazy by you, she never forgot that you killed her." My business. How many people do you think will believe what you say? No one in the world will believe it. If you ask anywhere, the people will say that you killed me. Ye Qingxiao, do you think you can really lie to the world? ?Thousands of years later, you still cannot escape Shibi's blame!"
Speaking of the excitement, Ye Chenxi threw the firewood in front of him with all his strength and fell into the fire. The fire shards were flying in the cave, but they couldn't stop their gazes.
Ye Qingxiao looked at Ye Chenxi with bright eyes like frost: "Because people in the world don't believe it, so you don't believe it either?"
"You and I fought to the death for power, but you said that I sacrificed myself to save you, who would believe it?" Ye Chenxi retorted.
Ye Qingxiao suddenly gave a sad smile, like whispering, and also like saying to Ye Chenxi: "No wonder Xue Lingyun didn't believe it back then, if you didn't even believe it yourself, who can you convince?"
After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and said no more.Now that Ye Chenxi hated him to the bone, and he fell into Ye Chenxi's hands, he was afraid that life would be worse than death.He recalled many fragments of the past, when they were always inseparable as a child, but with the looming cause of his mother's death, and the factional struggles among the courtiers, they gradually became estranged.
When he suddenly turned his head, he found that there was an insurmountable gap between them.But even so, they never hated each other.
I'm afraid that after today, the only thing left between their brothers is hatred.
"Your Highness, the hare is ready." The assassin's voice sounded from outside the cave.
Ye Chenxi came back to his senses, and ordered: "Mo Yun, bring it in."
Su Moyun walked in, holding a hare wrapped in leaves in his hand, and a strong smell of meat permeated the cave.Ye Qingxiao had already forgotten that he hadn't eaten for a long time, now that he smelled the smell of meat, he felt hungry, but he still closed his eyes tightly, refusing to look at the hare in Su Moyun's hand.
Su Moyun tore a rabbit leg and handed it to Ye Chenxi. Ye Chenxi took two bites, then turned to look at Ye Qingxiao, and said with an evil smile: "Your brother must be hungry, right?"
Ye Qingxiao opened her eyes and looked at Ye Chenxi, not understanding what he wanted to do, so she continued to remain silent.
Ye Chenxi handed the rabbit leg to Ye Qingxiao's mouth, but suddenly his hand slipped and fell to the ground. Ye Chenxi smiled evilly, picked up the mud-stained rabbit leg, and handed it to Ye Qingxiao's mouth, saying : "I'm away from home, there's not enough food, Brother Huang, let's make it up."
Ye Qingxiao felt a chill in her heart, her throat was sore, she was both hungry and thirsty, but she did not allow herself to be humiliated like this by others, even if that person was Ye Chenxi.
Ye Chenxi waited for a while but still didn't get a response, and felt angry: "Do you think you are still the emperor sitting on the dragon chair? Now you are just my prisoner. Do you want to eat or not?"
"I don't know how to eat." This is the first time Ye Qingxiao called himself "Zhenxi" after reuniting with Ye Chenxi, which means he has admitted the gap between him and Ye Chenxi, and realized that the person in front of him is no longer The person who shared memories with him back then.The surprise when she first saw Ye Chenxi has gradually turned into despair.
Hearing this, Ye Chenxi became even more angry. She stretched out her hand to hold Ye Qingxiao's back of the head, and then forcefully stuffed the rabbit leg into his mouth. The waves of mud and sand scraped Ye Qingxiao's tongue very uncomfortable, and his breathing became more and more intense. Urgent, struggling desperately, but his hands were bound so that he could not do what he wanted.Ye Chenxi's ice-like eyes clearly came into view, and he was almost suffocated by the surging hatred.
When the rabbit leg was pulled out of Ye Qingxiao's mouth, he collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath, his whole body dripping with cold sweat, but Ye Chenxi just looked at him indifferently for a moment, then threw the rabbit leg in his hand, and tore another one. Chew up.Su Moyun beside him handed him a water bag. Ye Chenxi took a sip and said softly to Su Moyun, "Hurry up, it won't taste good when it's cold."
Feeling warm in Su Moyun's heart, he also tore off a rabbit leg and ate it. When he occasionally looked at Ye Chenxi, his eyes were tender like water.After a while, they ate the whole hare, as if they had forgotten about Ye Qingxiao who fell on the ground.
Ye Qingxiao looked at the two of them, and felt a sense of sadness in her heart. The Ye Chenxi who had been looking at him with fiery eyes in her memory had disappeared, and all the bonds between him and Ye Chenxi were buried in the collapsed building. In the cave, there is no trace left.
Thinking too much made Ye Qingxiao very tired, and gradually fell asleep with burning pain and hunger.
4. Love is deep and lifeless
During the next few meals, Ye Chenxi threw the food on the ground, and then picked it up for Ye Qingxiao to eat.But Ye Qingxiao was still unyielding, after two days, her stomach was still empty.Ye Chenxi didn't care, she just wanted to see how long he could last.
On the third day, when eating the morning food, Su Moyun came in with a deliciously roasted pheasant, and tore a chicken leg for Ye Chenxi. Ye Qingxiao who was sleeping soundly on the rock.
After several days of tossing, Ye Qingxiao's thin face was already as pale as paper, her pair of red phoenix eyes were tightly closed, and a few messy black hair stuck to her cheeks, making her look very haggard.
For a moment, a trace of pity flashed across Ye Chenxi's heart, but he soon came to his senses.Thinking that Ye Qingxiao didn't care about his brotherhood when he killed him two years ago, he was furious.
He walked over quickly, pushed Ye Qingxiao's shoulder roughly, and said in a cold voice: "Brother Huang, do you want to eat today?"
Ye Qingxiao was pushed violently by him, she fell to the ground, her head hit the rock, and there was a crisp "boom", Ye Chenxi's heart trembled, and then she realized that Ye Qingxiao hadn't woken up, Can't help being surprised again, and hastily patted Ye Qingxiao's face with his hands: "Brother Huang, it won't look good if you keep pretending."
He patted it a few times until Ye Qingxiao's pale face gradually turned red before he stopped, but the tightly closed eyes still did not open.Ye Chenxi stretched out her hand to feel his breath again, although she was still breathing, it was very weak.
Seeing this, Su Moyun walked over quickly: "Your Highness, he must not be hungry and faint?"
When Ye Chenxi heard the words, she immediately took Ye Qingxiao into her arms, and said to Su Moyun, "Hurry up and bring water!"
That tense tone made Su Moyun's heart tremble, but remembering that they were brothers and blood was thicker than water, she stopped thinking about it, and hurriedly handed the water bag to Ye Qingxiao's lips, and poured the water down.Ye Chenxi tore the chicken leg into shreds and stuffed it into his mouth, and used water to help him swallow it, and did not stop until the whole chicken leg was fed.
Supporting Ye Qingxiao to lie down again, Ye Chenxi realized that her palms were soaked in cold sweat.Can't help laughing at myself in my heart, until now, are you still thinking about brotherhood?
Su Moyun was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, why didn't you kill him and go back to ascend the throne?"
Only then did Ye Chenxi remember that he hadn't eaten yet. He tore a piece of chicken breast and gave it to Su Moyun, and replied, "Do you think that this king can succeed if the emperor's brother dies? Don't forget that there is still King Heng in the court." .Using the means of the emperor, he must be fully prepared before leaving the capital. As soon as he dies, someone will immediately take the imperial decree and make King Heng enthroned."
"However, that King Heng was born of a palace maid, was deposed as a commoner, and has long since lost his right to inherit. How can he be compared with His Highness?" Su Moyun didn't think much of King Heng Ye Youran, and even though King Heng was handsome in appearance, But he has a weird personality and has offended many ministers in the court. No one is willing to assist such a king.
Ye Chenxi sighed softly: "This is not what it used to be. Ever since the emperor's brother succeeded to the throne, King Heng has regained his status as a royal family, and his temperament has also restrained a lot. After all, this king has been away from Beijing for two years. It’s not as good as it used to be.”
"He and Ye Qingxiao are brothers!" Su Moyun snorted coldly.
When Ye Chenxi heard this, it was as if the bottle of five flavors had been overturned in her heart, and she couldn't even taste what it was like.He took Su Moyun into his arms, kissed her, and said softly: "Even if I am a brother, I can't treat this king as well as you."
Su Moyun hugged him back, and said in a low voice: "It is Mo Yun's blessing to be able to follow the temple."
Su Moyun is the bodyguard chosen by his uncle Du Bufan for him. He is not only strong in martial arts, but also meticulous. Ye Chenxi loves him very much. Since Du Bufan sent him to Ye Chenxi's side two years ago, Ye Chenxi's daily life is taken care of by him.Ye Chenxi's other guards knew about their relationship and did not dare to offend Su Moyun in the slightest.
After Ye Qingxiao was captured, Ye Chenxi never wanted Su Moyun. Now that the beautiful woman was in his arms, his lust was ignited all at once. He reached out and touched Su Moyun. Under Su Moyun's enthusiastic response, , his breathing became short of breath.
When he was confused and infatuated, Ye Chenxi suddenly felt heart palpitations, stopped his provocative movements, turned around and looked in Ye Qingxiao's direction, and suddenly met Ye Qingxiao's gaze, both of them were a little embarrassed, and soon separated look.
After a while, Ye Qingxiao said in a weak voice: "Chen Xi, I have something I want to talk to you alone."
Ye Chenxi raised her eyebrows, but still signaled Su Moyun to back down with her eyes.Su Moyun understood, saluted him respectfully and stepped back. As the footsteps faded away, Su Moyun's figure slowly disappeared from their sight.
Ye Qingxiao pondered for a moment, and finally asked: "Have you formed an alliance with Chu Aohan?"
Ye Chenxi looked at Ye Qingxiao with her hands crossed, and asked back with a half-smile: "So what if you are? So what if you are not?"
Seeing the mocking smile on Ye Chenxi's face, Ye Qingxiao couldn't help frowning, with reproach in her voice: "No matter how much you and I fight, it's a family matter. I don't want to involve foreign enemies, you Knowing Chu Aohan's intentions, why do you want to do what he wants?"
Ye Chenxi's face darkened, and she said, "Family matters? Brother Huang wants to kill me, why don't people resist?"
"You don't care about anything just to fight with me? Chu Aohan hopes that our country will be in chaos, and he will take advantage of it to enter. What will happen to me in Dongyue then? What about the people? How do you plan to explain to the people?" Ye Qing Xiao's voice was so severe that he almost forgot that he was already a prisoner.
Ye Chenxi looked at Ye Qingxiao for a while, then suddenly laughed: "Brother Huang doesn't want civil strife in our country? My brother has a solution." After speaking, he took out a roll of dyed yellow paper from his arms and threw it on the ground, with a calm tone: "As long as Brother Huang is willing to write an edict to abdicate, Chu Aohan will naturally not be able to take advantage of it."
Ye Qingxiao's whole body was shocked, her gaze was fixed on the roll of dyed yellow paper, unable to respond for a long time.
Ye Chenxi said again: "If it is true what the emperor said two years ago, then the minister is the emperor's savior, shouldn't the emperor repay his favor and give up his position?"
Ye Qingxiao slowly withdrew her gaze, looked up at Ye Chenxi, her words were clear: "I don't know how to write, even if you kill me, you won't be the successor."
These words instantly ignited Ye Chenxi's anger. He squatted down and pinched Ye Qingxiao's jaw: "It really is the Emperor Dongyue, who is still so proud when he is about to die."
After finishing speaking, he let go of Ye Qingxiao, took out a dagger from his waist, and gently scratched Ye Qingxiao's face, the knife's light shone on Ye Qingxiao's face, but he couldn't change his expression at all.
"Brother Huang, you should know that there is a knife scar on my younger brother's back, right? It was injured in a cave on Tianshan Mountain two years ago."
Ye Qingxiao heard Ye Chenxi's words, and slowly closed her eyes, as if she had acquiesced to Ye Chenxi's words.
"My brother wants to take this knife back from Brother Huang. Brother Huang shouldn't object, right?" Ye Chenxi slowly moved the dagger to Ye Qingxiao's back, and slowly sharpened him with the cold tip of the knife. It seemed that at any moment, the tip of Senhan's knife would be inserted into his body.
"Prick if you want, I won't compromise."
Ye Chenxi was completely enraged, he suddenly stabbed the dagger into Ye Qingxiao's back, although the wound was not deep, blood flowed, dyeing Ye Chenxi's five fingers rouge.Ye Chenxi glanced at Ye Qingxiao bitterly, then pulled out the dagger resolutely.
Ye Qingxiao snorted, then bit her lower lip tightly until the pale lower lip was stained red with blood.
"Don't worry, my brother won't kill you. I don't want to bear the name of killing my brother." Ye Chenxi caressed Ye Qingxiao's face with her bloodstained fingers, the movement was as gentle as if she was stroking her lover, but His eyes were cold.
Ye Qingxiao's back was gradually drenched with blood and cold sweat, the sharp dagger seemed to have pierced into his heart, and the sharp pain made his heart tremble.
He and Ye Chenxi had been brothers for 30 years, even though they had plotted against each other, Ye Chenxi never hurt him.Now this knife seems to have cut off all their tenderness that was looming in the past.Love is deep and lifeless, is it true?
It is heartbreaking to bury old love in such a cruel way.
Ye Qingxiao coughed a few times, blood slowly oozing from her lips.Ye Chenxi seemed to be startled by his coughing, and was a little flustered.He threw down the dagger, ran outside the cave and told one of the guards, "Go in and bandage his wound."
He didn't calm down until the guard led the order to walk into the cave, but the look in his eyes towards Siye was still full of bewilderment.
Su Moyun came to his side, hesitant to speak.
Ye Chenxi tried her best to control her tone, and asked, "What do you want to say?"
"Your Highness seems to have... pity for him." Su Moyun has been with Ye Chenxi for two years. He knows how much Ye Chenxi hates Ye Qingxiao, but after he really captures Ye Qingxiao, although The hatred is still there, but it always shows pity inadvertently.
When Ye Chenxi heard the words, her blood-stained hands trembled slightly, and she retorted: "He almost killed me and drove my mother crazy, how can I take pity on him? You are overthinking."
"It's my subordinates who are busy." Su Moyun took out a square handkerchief, moistened it with water, and slowly wiped away the blood between Ye Chenxi's fingers.Ye Chenxi quietly stared at Su Moyun's face. Although this face was not handsome, there was a calm expression between his brows and eyes, which made him unable to move his eyes away.
He suddenly grabbed Su Moyun's hand, lowered his head and kissed those soft lips, until the two lips were red and swollen from his kiss, he let go of Su Moyun, turned and walked into the cave.
The guard had already stopped Ye Qingxiao's bleeding, and now he was cleaning the blood off his body.Since Ye Qingxiao was injured on the back, he had to take off the clothes on his upper body when dealing with the wound, revealing his lean body. The guard wiped off the blood carefully with a square handkerchief.
Kersh is located between the Kingdom of the Rising Sun and the Nordic countries. Hundreds of miles to the south is Yongjing, the tax-heavy land of the Rising Sun Kingdom, and a thousand miles to the north is Mingyang, the land of dragon prosperity in the Dongyue Kingdom, which is a battleground for military strategists.
The Shengjia people have been living here for hundreds of years. Because the two countries are staring at each other with covetous eyes, the soldiers have suffered successive years for hundreds of years, making the people of this group fierce and all the people are soldiers.Although the Shengjia clan had no choice but to surrender to the Kingdom of Rising Sun more than 100 years ago, they have hidden a strong character of refusing to surrender. Over the past century, they have surrendered four times and rebelled four times, causing headaches for successive emperors of the Kingdom of Rising Sun.
Later, Mo Batian, a courageous and wise patriarch of the Shengjia clan, had long been determined to win the world. After many years of planning, he finally succeeded his predecessor Yu Lie and once again raised the rebellion flag and waved his troops northward.Although the Shengjia clan was defeated in the end, the cavalry of the Shengjia clan smashed half of the country and shocked the world.
And this Mo Batian is Mo Yichen's father.After the Shengjia clan surrendered, Mo Batian committed suicide, and the seven-year-old Mo Yichen was adopted by the then emperor of the Rising Sun Kingdom, Chu Aoqin, as his adopted son, and he lived in Taijing, the capital of the Rising Sun Kingdom.Everyone knows that Mo regards Chenming as his righteous son, but in fact he is his hostage.Therefore, the Shengjia clan has been very peaceful for more than ten years.
But such a powerful ethnic group, and in such an important position, has always been a hidden danger for the two countries.Four years ago, taking advantage of the domestic turmoil in the rising sun, the Dongyue Kingdom suddenly sent troops to recruit the Shengjia tribe, but on the day of surrender, they showed the butcher knife to the Shengjia tribe. Only the patriarch Mo Yichen remained.
To this day, if you dig a foot in the land of Korsh, you can still see the bones.
Mo Yichen lifted the brocade curtain of the carriage and looked at this vast land. Kersh's winter is severe and the vegetation is difficult to grow, only the dead lantern flowers bloom more and more beautifully.But this flower can only grow in Kersh, if it leaves the land of Kersh, it will wither.Back then, Xue Lingyun dug a pot of Kersh's soil and transplanted a dead lantern flower to Mo Yichen, but it withered after only two years of planting.
The past is vivid, but it has changed beyond recognition.Looking up at the dead lantern flowers that are not afraid of the severe cold, although the mountains and plains are everywhere, the plain white petals are dyed a bright red, and I can't help but feel sad.
Looking back on his life, it can be described as full of twists and turns.He lost his father at the age of seven and went to Thailand as a hostage. Although the former emperor Chu Aoqin treated his adoptive son very kindly, he was walking on thin ice.When Chu Aohan killed his brother to seize the throne, Xue Lingyun broke through and came out to seek refuge with the second prince Ye Chenxi of Dongyue Kingdom.His tribe also took advantage of the chaos to take him back to the tribe, and they have been separated from each other ever since.
He kept thinking afterwards that if everything stopped here, even if he was left to die alone, he would have no complaints.However, some things are predestined and cannot be controlled at all.
Thoughts were spinning and turning, but he couldn't help the grief in his heart, and Mo Yichen's eyes were stained with misty tears.
Ye Qingxiao naturally understood what was on his mind, and didn't want to disturb him, so she closed her eyes and rested her mind.
After a while, Mo Yichen's voice came from next to his ear: "Do you still remember this place, Your Majesty?"
Ye Qingxiao suddenly opened her eyes, and cast her eyes out of the window, what caught her eyes were the dead lanterns all over the field, like fresh blood.Although the scenery here was somewhat different from four years ago, he immediately recognized that this was ten miles outside the holy city, which was the place where the Shengjia clan descended back then.
Mo Yichen glanced back at Ye Qingxiao, and said with a faint smile, "This is the place where Your Majesty and the subject first met."
That year, the Dongyue Kingdom turned its back on its promise and started killing suddenly after they surrendered. They had already abandoned their weapons and were powerless to resist.Under the rush of anger, Mo Yichen saw Ye Qingxiao who suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and knew that he must be a person of high status.In order to force the Dongyue Kingdom to retreat, he shot Ye Qingxiao in the chest without hesitation, almost killing him.
From the moment he shot that arrow, he embraced the will to die.However, instead of killing him, Ye Qingxiao treated him very respectfully.After getting along with each other for a long time, he actually developed a feeling of meeting a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers, which made him willing to break his oath to assist Ye Qingxiao, step by step to the position of the national teacher of the East Yue Kingdom.Until now, I have never regretted it.
Looking at Mo Yichen's magical appearance, Ye Qingxiao felt as if she had been in a lifetime: "This is the place where I first met Yichen, how could I forget it."
"If His Majesty had killed the minister back then, what would happen now?" Mo Yichen grabbed the warm blanket that was slipping away, and slowly tidied it up, his expression has returned to calm.
Although Ye Qingxiao promised not to kill him before the battle, how many people still did not change their original intention after experiencing life and death struggles?This bearing alone is worthy of his friendship.
Ye Qingxiao said with emotion: "Perhaps there is always a destiny in the dark, even though we always want to control our destiny with our own hands, but after going around, everything is still within the destiny."
Mo Yichen heard the words and knew that he thought of Kang Wang Ye Chenxi, so he fell silent.
The carriage had already entered the holy city at some point, and was speeding along the deserted stone road, and finally stopped at Yingyue Residence, Mo Yichen's former residence.The guards had already arranged everything in advance, and when they entered the Shadow Moon Residence, the guards had already set up a table of meals.
After running around for several days, Ye Qingxiao and Mo Yichen were all dyed in the color of wind and smoke, and they went to rest after dinner.
The next day, Ye Qingxiao and Mo Yichen personally lit candles on the bank of the Panyue River, and filled the river with paper boats. They were dressed in plain clothes, with solemn expressions, and their ink-like black hair was tied behind them with hemp rope. The sleeves of the clothes are flying, as bright as snowflakes.
They quietly watched the paper boat go with the water and gradually disappeared from sight.There are some people and some things in this world, no matter how vigorous they were, they are only a few strokes in the history books in the end.
Mo Yichen recalled the wish he had made when he sacrificed to the dead: May the world be peaceful forever.
I only hope that there will be no more poor people in the world, and no other tribe will repeat the tragedy of the Shengjia tribe.For this wish, he broke his vow to never help the Dongyue Kingdom, and parted ways with the person he loved the most.
After sighing softly, he picked up the paper money on the ground, lit it with a candle, and then put it on the ground to let it burn slowly.The soft fire light reflected on his white face, and the eyes full of water were faintly visible.
When the candles were burnt out, the sun was almost dusk, and the candle tears on the river bank had already dried up, leaving only a layer of cool white.
Mo Yichen picked up a basket of food and wine that was placed on the ground, and said to Ye Qingxiao: "Your Majesty, I still have to go to the Holy Mountain to pay homage to my deceased father, why don't you go back to Shadow Moon Residence to rest first, Your Majesty!"
Since Mo Yichen paid homage to his late father, Ye Qingxiao could not disturb him, so he had to transfer half of the guards to follow Mo Yichen to the holy mountain.After Mo Yichen left, he had nothing to do for a while, so he took a walk along the Panyue River.
The river water is so clear that you can see a few petals drifting away with the water, and then disappearing again, just like the heroes in the history books, I will go on stage after you sing, but they will all be ashes under the ages.
Feeling overwhelmed for a moment, he ordered someone to fetch the wine.
After a while, a guard came back from fetching the wine, Ye Qingxiao took the wine jar, tore open the seal, a burst of wine scented the nostrils, which lifted people's spirits, it was the rose dew brewed by Heng Wang Ye Youran himself.He held up the wine jar, raised his head and took a few sips, poured some more into the Panyue River, then lightly lifted his clothes, sat on a boulder by the river bank, and drank slowly against the twilight.
When the twilight turned thick, the wine jar in Ye Qingxiao's hands had bottomed out, he forgot for a moment, and forgot that this wine had a strong aftertaste, and it was most taboo to drink too much.He threw the wine jar and staggered two steps when he stood up, the guard who had just taken the wine immediately stepped forward to support him.At this moment, Ye Qingxiao smelled a faint scent of incense from that person, his expression changed suddenly, he immediately took two steps back, and shouted: "Come on, catch him!"
The man reacted very quickly, he had already caught up with Ye Qingxiao as he retreated, and his strike was as fast as lightning, and he grabbed Ye Qingxiao's throat in the blink of an eye. : "Who sent you?"
When all the guards saw this, although they were extremely anxious, they did not dare to step forward rashly, so they could only shout: "Bold madman, let Your Majesty go quickly."
The assassin just looked at Ye Qingxiao carefully for a moment as the turbulent wind passed through his ears, took out the dagger from his sleeve pocket, waved it back and forth in front of Ye Qingxiao's eyes, and asked leisurely: "How does Your Majesty know that I am a fake?"
Although his appearance seemed casual, his eyes were as cold as ice, making people feel as if they were falling into cold water.
Although Ye Qingxiao is under the control of others, she is fearless: "The incense on your body is a tribute from the Rising Sun Kingdom. It is very precious and cannot be used by ordinary people. Besides, my guards go out with me, so how can I have leisure time to use incense?"
The assassin laughed lightly when he heard the words: "I have heard that the emperor of Dongyue has a clear vision, and seeing him today, it is indeed true."
As his laughter sounded, dozens of men in black attacked Ye Qingxiao's guards, the two sides fought together, the shadows of swords and swords made it hard to keep one's eyes open, and the blood foam was flying everywhere, and the smell was pungent.
Ye Qingxiao's expression finally changed slightly, and he asked in a cold voice: "Are you sent by Chu Aohan?"
The man snorted coldly: "He still can't send me."
Ye Qingxiao got drunk, she couldn't stand for a while and fell towards the man, her white neck bumped against the dagger, the man was startled when she saw this, and quickly took a step back.Ye Qingxiao seized the opportunity to hit the man's chest with an elbow, and immediately heard a muffled groan, he jumped back, seeing the man's repeated tricks and reaching out to grab him, immediately fell to the ground, kicked with both feet, It hit the man's lower abdomen.
At this time, a guard rushed over, blocked the man's pursuit, and shouted to Ye Qingxiao: "Your Majesty, go first!"
Hearing this, Ye Qingxiao immediately ran towards the direction of the holy mountain, with the clanging of swords behind her and the sound of bones cracking, it was shocking.Although he knew that he was at the critical point of life and death, he was unable to do what he wanted, and every step he took seemed to exhaust all the strength in his body.He was startled, knowing that it wasn't just the stamina of rose dew, there might be other medicines added to the wine.
After staggering a few times, he heard the sound of piercing through the sky, he quickly drew his sword to meet the enemy, but the alcohol and medicine made his movements very slow.Before he could turn around, a palm hit his back, he felt a pain in his chest, his blood was surging, and a hot current ran up his throat, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood mist.
Before he recovered his breath, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and the assassin had already pressed his dagger against his neck, the piercing sword energy reflected his face as pale as a pistil, and even made him dizzy for a moment.
"What did you drink in the wine?" Ye Qingxiao was already full of strength at this moment, if the man hadn't stabilized his body, he might have collapsed at this moment.
The man sneered when he heard the words: "Don't worry, it's not poison, it's just loose tendons." After finishing speaking, the man purposely increased his grip on the dagger, Ye Qingxiao felt a stabbing pain in his neck, and a few drops of blood slowly slid down the dagger, dyed his neckline red.He looked at the man without fear and asked, "What do you want?"
There was a cold smile on the man's lips: "You will know soon."
Ye Qingxiao was still full of doubts, but the man was obviously impatient, he slashed at the back of his neck with a hand knife, he felt a gust of wind blowing, and immediately felt a pain in the back of his neck, and passed out.
The author has something to say: Mo Fei knows that this chapter is very long-winded, and he has a lot of ink on Mo Yichen and the Shengjia clan, but because these things will be involved later, he must explain clearly.The next chapter, Xiao Gong, is about to appear, I hope you will wait patiently~~~
3. No companion
When he woke up, Ye Qingxiao felt dizzy. His eyes were covered by a black cloth and his hands were tied behind his back. He couldn't feel day and night. He could only feel that he was tied to the horse's back from the bumps below him and the loud sound of hooves. superior.The feeling of hanging upside down was very uncomfortable, the rope rubbed against his skin due to the jolt, blood had already ooze in some places.
He tried to move his hands, but couldn't.A pang of hunger in his belly, the feeling of empty stomach and dizziness of hanging upside down made him feel nauseous.
"Your Majesty is awake?" The cold voice came from the ear, it was the assassin.
Ye Qingxiao resisted the feeling of discomfort, and asked: "Where are you going to take me?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'll be there soon."
Ye Qingxiao forced herself to calm down.There is King Heng sitting in the middle of the capital, and Mo Yichen is here, so there will be no trouble for the time being.But over time, it is inevitable that the news will be leaked.He originally wanted to leave clues, but the assassin's attack was too fast, he passed out before he could do it, and now even he himself doesn't know where he is, wondering if King Heng and Mo Yichen can find him?
Ye Qingxiao began to plan drowsily how to escape, and when he came to his senses, the horse had already stopped.He didn't wear a cloak today, and now the cold wind hit his face, making him chill all over, and he couldn't help shivering.
Someone lifted him off the horse, put him on his shoulders, and continued on.From the sound of footsteps, there were at least a dozen people around him.After walking for a while, the dozen or so people around him stopped in their tracks, and only the one carrying him continued walking.
"Your Highness, someone brought it here." The assassin's voice sounded beside Ye Qingxiao's ear, but it was not the cold tone Ye Qingxiao was used to, but with a hint of tenderness.
"Bring it in!" The man's voice was a little low and very pleasant, but it sounded like thunder in Ye Qingxiao's ears. His whole body trembled, and he subconsciously turned his face to the place where the sound came from, but suddenly remembered that he couldn't see now. , I was so anxious that I wished I could immediately lift the black cloth over my eyes and see the man's face clearly.
The man who was carrying him responded, walked about ten steps, and then put him down.The sound of the wind gradually subsided, Ye Qingxiao felt her body warming up gradually, and occasionally she could hear the sound of firewood sticks burning.
"Get back first!" The deep voice sounded again, and Ye Qingxiao's heart throbbed again, almost unable to control herself.
When the sound of footsteps faded away, Ye Qingxiao's chin was pinched with both hands, and the low voice sounded again: "I never imagined that His Majesty the Emperor of Dongyue would be in such a mess, if your subjects saw it, how would they react? "
Ye Qingxiao didn't care about the slightly sarcastic words, but said anxiously: "Let me see your face."
The man smiled for a while, and breathed on Ye Qingxiao's face. The familiar yet unfamiliar feeling made Ye Qingxiao confirm his guess. Before the man could answer, he asked again : "Are you Chen Xi?"
Back then, he watched Ye Chenxi's burial with his own eyes, and he never doubted Ye Chenxi's death.Now that this voice and this familiar aura are in front of him, is it really an illusion?
Could it be because he was drugged?Thinking of this, he immediately calmed down, but his hands tied behind his back still couldn't help shaking.
The man snorted coldly: "Unexpectedly, Brother Huang still remembers my younger brother. It's really touching."
That ice-like voice pierced Ye Qingxiao's heart like a sharp blade. In his memory, Ye Chenxi had never spoken to him in such a tone, even when they were fighting for power most fiercely, Ye Chenxi She would still say to him tenderly and helplessly: "If my father wants to kill you, I will intercede for you."
Is he really in a dream?
In a trance, the black cloth covering his eyes was torn off, Ye Qingxiao narrowed his eyes subconsciously, Ye Chenxi's face clearly appeared in front of his eyes, the originally free and easy eyebrows were stained with frost, and his eyes were like Looking at him like a falcon, the red flames flickered on Ye Chenxi's resolute face, making it even more strange.
"Chen Xi, are you... still alive?" He really wanted to touch the face in front of him that resembled him to make sure it was not a dream, but his bound hands made him unable to do what he wanted, only a slightly hoarse voice showed express his excitement.
Ye Chenxi sneered and said: "I'm still alive, are you surprised? What method do you want to use this time to put me to death? Or you can kill me again, and then collapse this cave, causing me to save you And the illusion of sacrifice."
After a pause, he continued slowly, "Just like two years ago."
Ye Qingxiao was startled, her face turned pale as paper: "What are you talking about? How could I kill you?"
"Brother Huang, what can't you do for the throne? In order to save you, I even refused to wait for the army to arrive, so I ventured up the Tianshan Mountain alone. But you took the opportunity to kill me. In the past two years, when you looked at your heart at night, Have you ever blamed yourself?"
Ye Qingxiao stared blankly at the cold and charming Ye Chenxi, and it took a long time to utter a word: "Chenxi, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand at all?"
"Brother Huang really doesn't understand, or is he pretending not to understand? Brother Huang knows best what happened back then, so how can he ask his younger brother instead?" Ye Chenxi stared at Ye Qingxiao with a cold and intimidating gaze, lips Pan still wore a mocking smile.
Ye Qingxiao looked at him for a long time, still as if in a fog, so she could only ask in a low voice: "Chen Xi, what's wrong with you? You know what happened back then, why are you talking nonsense?"
"Thanks to the emperor's gift, my brother has lost his memory." Ye Chenxi put away the smile on her lips, and the sound of gnashing of teeth could be heard faintly.
Ye Qingxiao was shocked again, and in a flash of thought, she forced herself to calm down, and asked: "Who saved you back then? And who told you this?"
A few figures quickly flashed in his mind. If he could save Ye Chenxi, make him fake his death, and take him away from the imperial mausoleum silently, this person must be an extraordinary person.
Ye Chenxi snorted, and sat down beside him: "It was Chu Aohan who saved me, he has a plant of orchid grass in his hand, which can bring the dead back to life, but after taking it, he will be suspended for a month and will lose his memory forever. "
Hearing this, Ye Qingxiao seemed to be immersed in the cold, her face was frighteningly pale, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "Chu Aohan is the emperor of the enemy country, so he has no purpose in sacrificing a plant of Orchid Youcao to save you? Yes Haven't you ever doubted his words?"
Ye Chenxi's red phoenix eyes will look back at Ye Qingxiao with a smile on her face: "Of course I don't believe what he said, but what about our own uncle? Should I believe it? He won't frame you for no reason, right?"
Although they were not born from the same mother, their mothers were sisters. They were once intimate, but in the end there was only deep-rooted hatred left.After Ye Qingxiao's mother, Concubine Lan, passed away, her originally neutral uncle Du Bufan suddenly expressed support for Ye Chenxi and became the backbone of the King Kang faction.
Ye Chenxi has always relied heavily on Du Bufan, this reliance has not changed even if he lost his memory, it will change, maybe it is only the relationship between him and Ye Chenxi?Thinking of this, Ye Qingxiao felt like a knife was piercing her heart.
Seeing his silence, Ye Chenxi thought he had nothing to say, so she sneered and continued, "If uncle's words are not to be believed, what about my mother? Although she was driven crazy by you, she never forgot that you killed her." My business. How many people do you think will believe what you say? No one in the world will believe it. If you ask anywhere, the people will say that you killed me. Ye Qingxiao, do you think you can really lie to the world? ?Thousands of years later, you still cannot escape Shibi's blame!"
Speaking of the excitement, Ye Chenxi threw the firewood in front of him with all his strength and fell into the fire. The fire shards were flying in the cave, but they couldn't stop their gazes.
Ye Qingxiao looked at Ye Chenxi with bright eyes like frost: "Because people in the world don't believe it, so you don't believe it either?"
"You and I fought to the death for power, but you said that I sacrificed myself to save you, who would believe it?" Ye Chenxi retorted.
Ye Qingxiao suddenly gave a sad smile, like whispering, and also like saying to Ye Chenxi: "No wonder Xue Lingyun didn't believe it back then, if you didn't even believe it yourself, who can you convince?"
After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and said no more.Now that Ye Chenxi hated him to the bone, and he fell into Ye Chenxi's hands, he was afraid that life would be worse than death.He recalled many fragments of the past, when they were always inseparable as a child, but with the looming cause of his mother's death, and the factional struggles among the courtiers, they gradually became estranged.
When he suddenly turned his head, he found that there was an insurmountable gap between them.But even so, they never hated each other.
I'm afraid that after today, the only thing left between their brothers is hatred.
"Your Highness, the hare is ready." The assassin's voice sounded from outside the cave.
Ye Chenxi came back to his senses, and ordered: "Mo Yun, bring it in."
Su Moyun walked in, holding a hare wrapped in leaves in his hand, and a strong smell of meat permeated the cave.Ye Qingxiao had already forgotten that he hadn't eaten for a long time, now that he smelled the smell of meat, he felt hungry, but he still closed his eyes tightly, refusing to look at the hare in Su Moyun's hand.
Su Moyun tore a rabbit leg and handed it to Ye Chenxi. Ye Chenxi took two bites, then turned to look at Ye Qingxiao, and said with an evil smile: "Your brother must be hungry, right?"
Ye Qingxiao opened her eyes and looked at Ye Chenxi, not understanding what he wanted to do, so she continued to remain silent.
Ye Chenxi handed the rabbit leg to Ye Qingxiao's mouth, but suddenly his hand slipped and fell to the ground. Ye Chenxi smiled evilly, picked up the mud-stained rabbit leg, and handed it to Ye Qingxiao's mouth, saying : "I'm away from home, there's not enough food, Brother Huang, let's make it up."
Ye Qingxiao felt a chill in her heart, her throat was sore, she was both hungry and thirsty, but she did not allow herself to be humiliated like this by others, even if that person was Ye Chenxi.
Ye Chenxi waited for a while but still didn't get a response, and felt angry: "Do you think you are still the emperor sitting on the dragon chair? Now you are just my prisoner. Do you want to eat or not?"
"I don't know how to eat." This is the first time Ye Qingxiao called himself "Zhenxi" after reuniting with Ye Chenxi, which means he has admitted the gap between him and Ye Chenxi, and realized that the person in front of him is no longer The person who shared memories with him back then.The surprise when she first saw Ye Chenxi has gradually turned into despair.
Hearing this, Ye Chenxi became even more angry. She stretched out her hand to hold Ye Qingxiao's back of the head, and then forcefully stuffed the rabbit leg into his mouth. The waves of mud and sand scraped Ye Qingxiao's tongue very uncomfortable, and his breathing became more and more intense. Urgent, struggling desperately, but his hands were bound so that he could not do what he wanted.Ye Chenxi's ice-like eyes clearly came into view, and he was almost suffocated by the surging hatred.
When the rabbit leg was pulled out of Ye Qingxiao's mouth, he collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath, his whole body dripping with cold sweat, but Ye Chenxi just looked at him indifferently for a moment, then threw the rabbit leg in his hand, and tore another one. Chew up.Su Moyun beside him handed him a water bag. Ye Chenxi took a sip and said softly to Su Moyun, "Hurry up, it won't taste good when it's cold."
Feeling warm in Su Moyun's heart, he also tore off a rabbit leg and ate it. When he occasionally looked at Ye Chenxi, his eyes were tender like water.After a while, they ate the whole hare, as if they had forgotten about Ye Qingxiao who fell on the ground.
Ye Qingxiao looked at the two of them, and felt a sense of sadness in her heart. The Ye Chenxi who had been looking at him with fiery eyes in her memory had disappeared, and all the bonds between him and Ye Chenxi were buried in the collapsed building. In the cave, there is no trace left.
Thinking too much made Ye Qingxiao very tired, and gradually fell asleep with burning pain and hunger.
4. Love is deep and lifeless
During the next few meals, Ye Chenxi threw the food on the ground, and then picked it up for Ye Qingxiao to eat.But Ye Qingxiao was still unyielding, after two days, her stomach was still empty.Ye Chenxi didn't care, she just wanted to see how long he could last.
On the third day, when eating the morning food, Su Moyun came in with a deliciously roasted pheasant, and tore a chicken leg for Ye Chenxi. Ye Qingxiao who was sleeping soundly on the rock.
After several days of tossing, Ye Qingxiao's thin face was already as pale as paper, her pair of red phoenix eyes were tightly closed, and a few messy black hair stuck to her cheeks, making her look very haggard.
For a moment, a trace of pity flashed across Ye Chenxi's heart, but he soon came to his senses.Thinking that Ye Qingxiao didn't care about his brotherhood when he killed him two years ago, he was furious.
He walked over quickly, pushed Ye Qingxiao's shoulder roughly, and said in a cold voice: "Brother Huang, do you want to eat today?"
Ye Qingxiao was pushed violently by him, she fell to the ground, her head hit the rock, and there was a crisp "boom", Ye Chenxi's heart trembled, and then she realized that Ye Qingxiao hadn't woken up, Can't help being surprised again, and hastily patted Ye Qingxiao's face with his hands: "Brother Huang, it won't look good if you keep pretending."
He patted it a few times until Ye Qingxiao's pale face gradually turned red before he stopped, but the tightly closed eyes still did not open.Ye Chenxi stretched out her hand to feel his breath again, although she was still breathing, it was very weak.
Seeing this, Su Moyun walked over quickly: "Your Highness, he must not be hungry and faint?"
When Ye Chenxi heard the words, she immediately took Ye Qingxiao into her arms, and said to Su Moyun, "Hurry up and bring water!"
That tense tone made Su Moyun's heart tremble, but remembering that they were brothers and blood was thicker than water, she stopped thinking about it, and hurriedly handed the water bag to Ye Qingxiao's lips, and poured the water down.Ye Chenxi tore the chicken leg into shreds and stuffed it into his mouth, and used water to help him swallow it, and did not stop until the whole chicken leg was fed.
Supporting Ye Qingxiao to lie down again, Ye Chenxi realized that her palms were soaked in cold sweat.Can't help laughing at myself in my heart, until now, are you still thinking about brotherhood?
Su Moyun was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, why didn't you kill him and go back to ascend the throne?"
Only then did Ye Chenxi remember that he hadn't eaten yet. He tore a piece of chicken breast and gave it to Su Moyun, and replied, "Do you think that this king can succeed if the emperor's brother dies? Don't forget that there is still King Heng in the court." .Using the means of the emperor, he must be fully prepared before leaving the capital. As soon as he dies, someone will immediately take the imperial decree and make King Heng enthroned."
"However, that King Heng was born of a palace maid, was deposed as a commoner, and has long since lost his right to inherit. How can he be compared with His Highness?" Su Moyun didn't think much of King Heng Ye Youran, and even though King Heng was handsome in appearance, But he has a weird personality and has offended many ministers in the court. No one is willing to assist such a king.
Ye Chenxi sighed softly: "This is not what it used to be. Ever since the emperor's brother succeeded to the throne, King Heng has regained his status as a royal family, and his temperament has also restrained a lot. After all, this king has been away from Beijing for two years. It’s not as good as it used to be.”
"He and Ye Qingxiao are brothers!" Su Moyun snorted coldly.
When Ye Chenxi heard this, it was as if the bottle of five flavors had been overturned in her heart, and she couldn't even taste what it was like.He took Su Moyun into his arms, kissed her, and said softly: "Even if I am a brother, I can't treat this king as well as you."
Su Moyun hugged him back, and said in a low voice: "It is Mo Yun's blessing to be able to follow the temple."
Su Moyun is the bodyguard chosen by his uncle Du Bufan for him. He is not only strong in martial arts, but also meticulous. Ye Chenxi loves him very much. Since Du Bufan sent him to Ye Chenxi's side two years ago, Ye Chenxi's daily life is taken care of by him.Ye Chenxi's other guards knew about their relationship and did not dare to offend Su Moyun in the slightest.
After Ye Qingxiao was captured, Ye Chenxi never wanted Su Moyun. Now that the beautiful woman was in his arms, his lust was ignited all at once. He reached out and touched Su Moyun. Under Su Moyun's enthusiastic response, , his breathing became short of breath.
When he was confused and infatuated, Ye Chenxi suddenly felt heart palpitations, stopped his provocative movements, turned around and looked in Ye Qingxiao's direction, and suddenly met Ye Qingxiao's gaze, both of them were a little embarrassed, and soon separated look.
After a while, Ye Qingxiao said in a weak voice: "Chen Xi, I have something I want to talk to you alone."
Ye Chenxi raised her eyebrows, but still signaled Su Moyun to back down with her eyes.Su Moyun understood, saluted him respectfully and stepped back. As the footsteps faded away, Su Moyun's figure slowly disappeared from their sight.
Ye Qingxiao pondered for a moment, and finally asked: "Have you formed an alliance with Chu Aohan?"
Ye Chenxi looked at Ye Qingxiao with her hands crossed, and asked back with a half-smile: "So what if you are? So what if you are not?"
Seeing the mocking smile on Ye Chenxi's face, Ye Qingxiao couldn't help frowning, with reproach in her voice: "No matter how much you and I fight, it's a family matter. I don't want to involve foreign enemies, you Knowing Chu Aohan's intentions, why do you want to do what he wants?"
Ye Chenxi's face darkened, and she said, "Family matters? Brother Huang wants to kill me, why don't people resist?"
"You don't care about anything just to fight with me? Chu Aohan hopes that our country will be in chaos, and he will take advantage of it to enter. What will happen to me in Dongyue then? What about the people? How do you plan to explain to the people?" Ye Qing Xiao's voice was so severe that he almost forgot that he was already a prisoner.
Ye Chenxi looked at Ye Qingxiao for a while, then suddenly laughed: "Brother Huang doesn't want civil strife in our country? My brother has a solution." After speaking, he took out a roll of dyed yellow paper from his arms and threw it on the ground, with a calm tone: "As long as Brother Huang is willing to write an edict to abdicate, Chu Aohan will naturally not be able to take advantage of it."
Ye Qingxiao's whole body was shocked, her gaze was fixed on the roll of dyed yellow paper, unable to respond for a long time.
Ye Chenxi said again: "If it is true what the emperor said two years ago, then the minister is the emperor's savior, shouldn't the emperor repay his favor and give up his position?"
Ye Qingxiao slowly withdrew her gaze, looked up at Ye Chenxi, her words were clear: "I don't know how to write, even if you kill me, you won't be the successor."
These words instantly ignited Ye Chenxi's anger. He squatted down and pinched Ye Qingxiao's jaw: "It really is the Emperor Dongyue, who is still so proud when he is about to die."
After finishing speaking, he let go of Ye Qingxiao, took out a dagger from his waist, and gently scratched Ye Qingxiao's face, the knife's light shone on Ye Qingxiao's face, but he couldn't change his expression at all.
"Brother Huang, you should know that there is a knife scar on my younger brother's back, right? It was injured in a cave on Tianshan Mountain two years ago."
Ye Qingxiao heard Ye Chenxi's words, and slowly closed her eyes, as if she had acquiesced to Ye Chenxi's words.
"My brother wants to take this knife back from Brother Huang. Brother Huang shouldn't object, right?" Ye Chenxi slowly moved the dagger to Ye Qingxiao's back, and slowly sharpened him with the cold tip of the knife. It seemed that at any moment, the tip of Senhan's knife would be inserted into his body.
"Prick if you want, I won't compromise."
Ye Chenxi was completely enraged, he suddenly stabbed the dagger into Ye Qingxiao's back, although the wound was not deep, blood flowed, dyeing Ye Chenxi's five fingers rouge.Ye Chenxi glanced at Ye Qingxiao bitterly, then pulled out the dagger resolutely.
Ye Qingxiao snorted, then bit her lower lip tightly until the pale lower lip was stained red with blood.
"Don't worry, my brother won't kill you. I don't want to bear the name of killing my brother." Ye Chenxi caressed Ye Qingxiao's face with her bloodstained fingers, the movement was as gentle as if she was stroking her lover, but His eyes were cold.
Ye Qingxiao's back was gradually drenched with blood and cold sweat, the sharp dagger seemed to have pierced into his heart, and the sharp pain made his heart tremble.
He and Ye Chenxi had been brothers for 30 years, even though they had plotted against each other, Ye Chenxi never hurt him.Now this knife seems to have cut off all their tenderness that was looming in the past.Love is deep and lifeless, is it true?
It is heartbreaking to bury old love in such a cruel way.
Ye Qingxiao coughed a few times, blood slowly oozing from her lips.Ye Chenxi seemed to be startled by his coughing, and was a little flustered.He threw down the dagger, ran outside the cave and told one of the guards, "Go in and bandage his wound."
He didn't calm down until the guard led the order to walk into the cave, but the look in his eyes towards Siye was still full of bewilderment.
Su Moyun came to his side, hesitant to speak.
Ye Chenxi tried her best to control her tone, and asked, "What do you want to say?"
"Your Highness seems to have... pity for him." Su Moyun has been with Ye Chenxi for two years. He knows how much Ye Chenxi hates Ye Qingxiao, but after he really captures Ye Qingxiao, although The hatred is still there, but it always shows pity inadvertently.
When Ye Chenxi heard the words, her blood-stained hands trembled slightly, and she retorted: "He almost killed me and drove my mother crazy, how can I take pity on him? You are overthinking."
"It's my subordinates who are busy." Su Moyun took out a square handkerchief, moistened it with water, and slowly wiped away the blood between Ye Chenxi's fingers.Ye Chenxi quietly stared at Su Moyun's face. Although this face was not handsome, there was a calm expression between his brows and eyes, which made him unable to move his eyes away.
He suddenly grabbed Su Moyun's hand, lowered his head and kissed those soft lips, until the two lips were red and swollen from his kiss, he let go of Su Moyun, turned and walked into the cave.
The guard had already stopped Ye Qingxiao's bleeding, and now he was cleaning the blood off his body.Since Ye Qingxiao was injured on the back, he had to take off the clothes on his upper body when dealing with the wound, revealing his lean body. The guard wiped off the blood carefully with a square handkerchief.
