Hongdi

Yu Xun looked at the knife in his hand and forced himself to be calm, "Why did the emperor kill him? Did he make any mistakes? Or is the son not obedient enough?"

The emperor leisurely looked at the barely concealed anger in Yu Xun's eyes, and said lightly: "I want to kill someone, do I still need to give you a reason?"

Yu Xun bit his lower lip, knelt down and saluted, "Father, Mr. Bei once helped his son conquer the moon, and he was rewarded for his merits. How can he kill him casually? Please also investigate clearly."

"What if I don't investigate? Are you going to call me a fool again? Huh?" The emperor lifted Yu Xun's prostrate face and looked at him coldly.

Yu Xun sighed slightly, "I dare not. It's just that he is indeed a talent, I don't want to..."

"Either," the emperor interrupted his pleading, and suddenly said: "That child, Can Ke, is too disobedient, and I don't want to keep it anymore. Or, you can deal with it?"

Yu Xun's big eyes were wide open, he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd, "Father, Xiao Ke is still young and ignorant, all the things are done by the minister alone, you have to blame Just blame Erchen and let Xiaoke go, okay?"

The emperor frowned, feeling a little displeased. He threatened Canke, but Yu Xun pretended to be stupid with him, clearly not wanting to touch this surname, but he knew in his heart that this person must be removed!

"Yu Xun, I will give you two ways to go, either, kill this charlatan, or kill Canke."

Yu Xun tried his best to suppress the throbbing veins on his forehead, and argued: "Father, the two of them have no intersection, and they can't reach each other. Why should I make this choice?"

"I can't reach eight poles? Then what are you?" The emperor's narrowed eyes flashed coldly, "If I want you to choose, you have to choose!"

"Excuse me, I can't obey my orders!" Yu Xun expected that the emperor would not kill Can Ke, and the reason why he said this was that he wanted him to kill Bei Yaofei with his own hands.

He stood up abruptly, looked directly at the emperor, and said decisively: "Canke can't die, and neither can he! If the emperor insists on going his own way, the minister would rather smash the jade than destroy it!"

Bei Yaofei had already walked to Yu Xun's side at some point, his hawk-like eyes stared at the emperor without blinking for a moment, "Why does the emperor want me to die? Is it because he is afraid that I will ruin your business?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at this person who showed no respect to him, very displeased, "Come here, let me capture this rebellious snitch!"

Yu Xun was startled, and hurriedly protected Bei Yaofei, "Father, calm down. My son just thinks that everything should be done with the word 'reasonable'. It is unreasonable for you to kill people without asking indiscriminately."

"Hehe," the emperor suddenly found him very funny, "When I wanted your wife, why didn't I see that you were so particular about it?"

Yu Xun stifled for a while, and then said slowly: "It's my son's fault to deceive father and emperor Nayin'er as a concubine. But..."

"Is there a fault first? Then you hide people from the world, isn't it wrong?"

Yu Xun felt that the emperor was messing around, and the word 'reasonable' didn't make any sense at all, "Father, I have no private possession. I asked him to come here today because I want to introduce him to you."

"There is no need to introduce him. I am upset when I see him, so kill him."

When the emperor gave an order, the guards with knives screamed and squeezed into the small secret room.

Yu Xun frantically protected Bei Yaofei and retreated. In desperation, he pushed open the door of the secret passage, "Hurry up, Beibei!"

Seeing Yu Xun's distressed look, Bei Yaofei's heart ached.He pulled Yu Xun behind him, threw away his long black hair, and cut off several strands of hair with his armor as a blade.In the blink of an eye, all the broken hair rushed towards everyone on the opposite side like steel needles...

Yu Xun only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the people on the opposite side froze in place as if dumbfounded.All of them had empty eyes, just staring at Bei Yaofei.

Bei Yaofei pursed his thin purple lips tightly, clenched his hands into fists, pressed hard, and the long black armor pierced into his palms.

Standing behind him, Yu Xun looked at his bleeding fist, trembled in his heart, and hurriedly pulled him back.Bei Yaofei turned around and gave him a reassuring smile, and said softly, "Cover your ears."

Yu Xun was puzzled, but he followed his instructions and covered his ears.

Bei Yaofei kissed his icy forehead like a dragonfly, turned around, and spread his palms...

The blood drew two strange epiphyllums on his palm.With the rhythmic expansion and contraction of the palm, the two blood-colored epiphyllum quietly bloomed, as if there was no intention of stopping, they unfolded petal by petal, but the stamens were never seen...

The emperor gradually lost all consciousness in the palms of these hands, his eyes stared at the two treacherous and beautiful epiphyllum, and his mind was in a trance...

The strange and ghostly voice was like a sharp blade, forcibly cutting open the chaotic brain of the emperor, and hitting the center directly, "The sixth prince of Dahong, Canke, has been sent to Xi Kingdom as a hostage, and there is nothing to deal with in Yuxun Palace." , hurry back to the palace..."

Yu Xun couldn't believe that this weird voice came from Bei Yaofei's mouth. He tightly covered his ears, but he still couldn't resist the sharp and terrifying voice.As if to strip his soul out, the tearing pain in his head made it difficult for him to breathe...

Bei Yaofei kept repeating it until the emperor read this sentence lightly, then he took a step back and faced everyone with a smile that turned all living beings upside down.The black silk ribbon flew out of the sleeve in an instant, swallowing everyone with a piece of black powder.

The black mist dissipated, the emperor was stunned for a while, then suddenly recovered, and ordered: "Come back to the palace with me!"

Noisy footsteps sounded one after another, and after a while, only Bei Yaofei and Yu Xun were left in the secret room.

Yu Xun squatted on the ground, bit his lower lip hard, and tried his best to keep himself awake.Bei Yaofei leaned over and pressed the acupoints on the top of his head, and the warm and long force slowly seeped in.After only a moment, Yu Xun's headache disappeared, he took a deep breath, and looked up to give Bei Yaofei a bright smile, but when he saw the man's face, his face turned pale with shock...

Bei Yaofei's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, it was frighteningly white, the thin purple lips were already pure black, and a pair of eagle eyes suddenly turned blood red, so vivid...

"Bei... Beibei? What's wrong with you?" Yu Xun asked in a low voice, trembling.

Bei Yaofei tugged at the corner of his mouth, wanting to give him a reassuring smile, but he could no longer support his tired body, and fell down...

Yu Xun slowly stretched out his hands, and hugged the person who saved him from danger several times, feeling flustered...

When Canke opened her eyes, she saw Yu Xun sitting by the bed, looking out the window, in a daze.He yelled softly, but found that his voice was so hoarse that he could compete with a crow.

Yu Xun was startled, looked down and saw his younger brother woke up, a smile finally appeared on his tired face, "Cheng'er, I'm awake. Are you hungry, bro, ask someone to get you something to eat."

Can Ke shook her head, trying to stand up, Yu Xun hugged him in her arms and let him lean against her chest.

"Brother asked a doctor to show you. Your injuries will last for a while. Here are all elder brothers' people. You can just tell them what you want. When they come in later, I will introduce you to you."

It was only then that Canke noticed that although the place was luxuriously decorated, it was not the magnificent scene in the palace.He frowned and asked hoarsely, "Brother, where is this?"

Yu Xun smiled, and said softly: "My home, Hongbao Pavilion, Jiangfu."

Canke blinked, apparently not understanding what was going on.

"Cheng'er heard from my brother that my brother has another identity outside the palace, that is, the shopkeeper of Hongbao Pavilion, the second lady of Jiangfu, Jiang Nuanzhu. This is Jiangfu."

Can Ke looked at Yu Xun curiously, and asked doubtfully, "Miss?"

Yu Xun nodded, "Well, for the convenience of covering up, brother usually wears women's clothes outside."

Canke raised her uninjured left hand, stroked a lock of silver hair, and smirked, "My brother is already pretty, so he must have fascinated many people by dressing as a girl, right?"

Yu Xun rolled his eyes, pretended to be angry and nodded his forehead, "It's your fault."

"Hey." Canke grabbed Yu Xun's hair, and suddenly dimmed her eyes, "Brother, if the emperor chases after me, will something happen to the Jiang family?"

He originally wanted to say that the Jiang family would be wiped out, but stopped when the words came to his lips.He could see that this Jiang family was different from the Li family who took him in, and Yuxun's relationship with the Jiang family was not shallow.

Yu Xun sighed softly, and couldn't help thinking of the person lying next door who was still asleep, "Don't worry, Father will never look for you again."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because..." Yu Xun hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to explain Bei Yaofei's witchcraft, and said, "I can't tell you the specifics. It's just that the emperor thinks you are dead now, so he won't look for you anymore." .In a few days, it is estimated that the court will issue a document saying that you have died suddenly."

"I...dead?" Canke rolled her eyes and said blankly, "Then did I never exist at all?"

Yu Xun was taken aback for a moment, not knowing why the child suddenly said such a sentence, "How could it be. Sheng'er has always been my good brother, how could he never exist? I was just thinking about it."

"Hehe," Canke smiled wryly and shook her head, "Have I ever existed? Before I was three years old, my name was Yusheng, but no one except you knew me as a prince. After three years old, my name was Canke, and I wore a The name of the dead child has lived for seven years. Although some people know the existence of me, the sixth prince, no outsider has seen me. Now you tell me that I, named 'Chan Ke', is also dead... Then, I Who is it now? In the past ten years, have I existed? Who can prove that I exist?"

Yu Xun pursed his mouth and was speechless for a while...

A lot of memories poured into Can Ke's mind, he ignored the sharp pain from his back and wrist, pushed Yu Xun away, and said angrily, "Are you doing this for the crown prince?"

Yu Xun was startled, and then said angrily, "Cheng'er, what are you talking about?"

"Hehe, don't think that I was in pain and confused at that time, so I don't remember anything. Why is your palace called the residence of the 'Deposed Prince'? Why is the Huiyao Building where I live in the real prince's palace? Are you teasing? The crown prince, afraid that I will snatch it away, so that the emperor will think that I am dead?!"

Yu Xun's clear eyes were full of tears. He looked up at the bright moon quietly climbing up the branches outside the window, and suddenly realized that he had made a serious mistake: he never asked whether Canke wanted to be king...
