Hongdi

The overwhelming rain, the raging wind, the sky and the earth have long lost their color and lost their vitality...the living, the dead, the moving and the immovable, everything swayed and trembled with the rushing raindrops with.There are no pedestrians on the road, windows and doors are closed, and the street has become a ditch for rainwater and a battlefield for strong winds.The dark sky, the dark street scene, the dark running people...

Bei Yaofei didn't notice the raindrops hitting his body, he just wanted to quickly find the person who upset him...

The wind is holding the bean-sized raindrops, as if they are also looking for something, bumping from east to west, the world is oppressively black...

Silently, Bei Yaofei found a shattered red, crumbling in the rain like a waterfall.He flew over the messy street stalls, went straight to the red line, rubbed that thin body into his arms, and dared not let go for a long time...

"Shopkeeper, come to the room." Bei Yaofei kicked open the closed door of the inn, glaring.

Hearing the noise, the clerk rushed out to greet him, and respectfully led him to the second floor, for fear of neglecting the guests and causing disaster.

Bei Yaofei asked someone to bring hot water and gently scrub Yu Xun.Yu Xun drank a lot of wine, when Bei Yaofei found him, he was still drunk with half a jar in his hand.Looking anxiously at the person soaking in the bathtub, Bei Yaofei suddenly felt that this body made him a little confused...

"Bei Yaofei? Why are you? Where am I?" Yu Xun asked vaguely with his tongue out.

"At the inn. Wait for the rain to subside before going back."

Yu Xun suddenly plunged into the water and couldn't get out.This really startled Bei Yaofei, and hurriedly pulled him out, "What's the matter? Uncomfortable? Are you dizzy? I've asked the guy to make hangover soup, it will be fine in a while, just wait..." He I can't go on, because Yu Xun cried...

"In this world, the people are the biggest! The people are the biggest!" Yu Xun yelled indistinctly, tears dazzled a pair of green pupils, and also confused Bei Yaofei.

"Yes, yes, the people are the biggest. You, what's wrong with you?" Bei Yaofei gently carried the person who was almost washed out of the tub, and Bei Yaofei was a little at a loss and found a towel to wipe him.

"There is going to be a war, because of me, the people will suffer..."

"What? Fighting? No, although it may be done by Yue people, but it will not rise to the level of war. Don't worry about it."

"What do you know!" Yu Xun grabbed Bei Yaofei's hand and said sharply: "The border has already been fought, and if you hurry up, you will be able to arrive in Beijing tomorrow! The battle is settled."

"Why? Don't listen to other people's nonsense." Bei Yaofei also panicked, not for any other reason, but because he was afraid that Yu Xun would go to the battlefield.But even he himself didn't realize why he cared so much about this incompetent prince whom everyone disliked.

"It's true, Xiaotian just got the news. An urgent report from the border, Yueguo has sent troops." Yu Xun suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, he let go of Bei Yaofei, raised his hand and slapped himself heavily, "Damn it Hong Yuxun, why the hell are you so useless, you can't even look down on King Yi, what kind of prince!"

Bei Yaofei caressed Yu Xun's red and swollen cheeks in a daze, and directly pulled him into his arms, and said angrily, "What are you doing!"

Yuxun's eyes were empty, and he stared blankly at the constantly flickering candles, "I'm sorry for the Wei family, the people in the frontier, and the refugees in Jiangbei. I, Hong Yuxun, owe the debt, and I will never be able to pay it back in this lifetime."

"How is this your fault? You didn't kill Wei's father and son. Besides, what does the war on the frontier have to do with you, the crown prince who sits in the capital? Also, it wasn't you who broke the embankment of the river in the north of the river. ? Don’t take everything on yourself, you know?”

Yu Xun shook his head, "You don't know, Wei's father and son supported Han Qi, my brother was the killer for me. The border war was caused by my brother who wanted to seize the military power for me. As for the people in Jiangbei," As he spoke, he raised his hand to hit himself again, but Bei Yaofei grabbed him.

Looking anxiously at the drunken man in his arms, Bei Yaofei sighed softly, "The disaster victims in Jiangbei have nothing to do with you."

"War, who cares about refugees? How many people will die! It's all because of me. If I wasn't so cowardly and incompetent, my brother wouldn't have used such extreme methods, and things wouldn't have turned out like this."

"Don't blame yourself too much, maybe things are not that bad. Let's think about countermeasures."

"Do you have a solution?" Yu Xun seemed to have found a well in the desert, staring hungrily at the man who was so gentle and a little outrageous.

Bei Yaofei gently rubbed Yu Xun's swollen face, pondered for a while, and said: "Sending troops is indeed a waste of people and money, but Yue Kingdom has already called, so we can't just sit idly by. But, we can negotiate a peace and let Yue Kingdom withdraw its troops. "

"How do you discuss it?"

"Why did the Moon Kingdom send troops?"

"The two generals who guarded the city of Yue Kingdom were killed. It is said that our Hong Kingdom did it."

"It's easy to handle. Some people were killed on our side, and it was pointed out that he Yueguo did it. This is obviously to let the two countries fight each other, and some people will reap the benefits. I don't think the leader of the Yueguo is not confused. People. Let's understand the truth, they will withdraw their troops, and then combine the forces of the two countries to arrest the real culprit."

"Then will my brother be in danger? Hongguo is fine, if Yueguo gets in the way, what if my brother is found out?"

Seeing Yu Xun with a serious face, Bei Yaofei felt a little upset, "You care about him that much?"

"He's my brother."

"How do you know he's not doing all this for himself? For you? Is it possible? Who doesn't want the throne?"

"You are not allowed to say that about my brother!" Yu Xun pushed Bei Yaofei away, "You don't know anything at all!"

"I don't know about the two of you! But I know one thing very well! He said clearly that he was with you, but behind his back, he was doing things that made things difficult for you and made the entire Hongyue Continent once again be at war!"

"My brother really did this to make me king." Yu Xun's dark eyes were full of mist, "We made an oath when we were very young. He helped me become king, and I set him free .”

"what?"

"My brother wants to leave the palace and become an ordinary citizen. This is his condition for helping me."

Bei Yaofei smiled disapprovingly, "How can you believe everything in childish words?"

"It's true!" Yu Xun frowned angrily.

Bei Yaofei didn't want to say more, he just said: "If that's the case, he is really a strange person."

"Hmph, believe it or not."

Yu Xun rubbed his dizzy head, looked at Bei Yaofei who was still covered in rain with some embarrassment, and whispered: "Bei Yaofei, you should wipe it too, you will catch a cold."

"You know you'll catch a cold and still get caught in the rain? Still drinking? Do you think you're in good health?"

Looking at Bei Yaofei who was suddenly furious, Yu Xun blinked, but didn't react...

Bei Yaofei took good care of himself, and went out to find the waiter for hangover soup.

Yu Xun nestled under the quilt, thinking about what he said just now when he was drunk and unobstructed, he felt indescribably annoyed.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

At some point, Bei Yaofei had already stood beside the bed with a bowl of hot soup.Yu Xun smiled awkwardly, and was about to reach out to take the bowl, but the silk slipped off. He suddenly realized that he was naked, so he covered himself up in a panic, his face was as red as an overripe apple...

Bei Yaofei gently blew on the soup in the bowl, and brought the spoon to his mouth, "Drink it while it's hot. Get a good sleep, and don't think about those troublesome things."

"Bei Yaofei, you really won't tell others?"

"Yeah. Soup!"

Yu Xun ate a spoonful, and said again: "Don't blame my brother for using you, okay? If you want to blame, just blame me."

"Then how do you calm me down?" Bei Yaofei looked at some foolish people calmly, but there was inexplicable expectation in his heart.

"You say, as long as I can do it."

"I want that piece of Yanxia's Zhenchen ancient jadeite, can you give it?" Bei Yaofei has no special liking for jade, but thinks that the color of the ancient jadeite is very similar to Yuxun's clear green pupils, and there is something deep in his memory. You Tan, the jade carving, unconsciously asked for it.

"You're talking about... the piece I won from betting on stones in Qingxiang?"

"Ah."

Yu Xun pursed his lips and frowned.

"Why, reluctant?" Bei Yaofei smiled, "Sometimes I wonder, Hong Yuxun, who is domineering and restrained, or Jiang Nuanzhu, who is greedy for money and eccentric, which one is the real you?"

"Huh?" Yu Xun was stunned.

"Forget it. Let's drink the soup, it will be cold in a while."

"It's not that I won't give it, it's just that it was cut by Master Dongguo, and a lot of it has been sold..., if you have time, go to the pavilion and have a look, and I'll give you the ones that haven't been sold."

"I'm kidding you, it's useless for me to ask for those."

"But……"

"If you really want to calm me down, you might as well answer the question I just asked."

"what?"

"Hong Yuxun, Jiang Nuanzhu, which one is the real you?"

Yu Xun smiled, and drank the soup from the bowl, then licked his upper lip, blinked his big eyes, and said with a ghostly smile, "Guess."

"Neither of them."

Seeing Yu Xun's completely frozen cute appearance, Bei Yaofei proudly raised the corners of his mouth, and then made an earth-shattering move, which stunned Yu Xun, and also stunned himself—he, Bei Yaofei, made a strange mistake Kissed Yu Xun's light red lips.

Yu Xun hugged the quilt as if seeing a ghost and quickly retreated to the corner of the bed, covered his mouth in horror, and stared at Bei Yaofei.

Bei Yaofei was also stunned, "I obviously like Xiaoxiu. Although I have been chasing him for more than ten years, even though I haven't caught up with him yet, the Caohe Church has acquiesced in my relationship with Xiaoxiu. The feelings for Hong Weixiao seem a little unusual recently, but I don’t really care about it. And this person who has been annoying me, I actually kissed him? Is he a man? This is a big joke, it must be because of the heavy rain, It must be like this, it must be like this." Bei Yaofei thought, he quickly felt his pulse, and found that his body was normal......

"Bei Yaofei! You, you," Yu Xun had already calmed down, smiled evilly, then pouted his mouth depressedly, and said angrily, "You eat my tofu!"

"what?"

"What my brother and I owe you will be written off! Did you hear that?!"

"Oh." Bei Yaofei didn't realize it for a while, so he answered casually.Suddenly he felt something was wrong, his brows were frowned, and Yu Xun shrank his neck suddenly in fright as he stepped forward.

"You are not allowed to mention other men when you are with me!"

Yu Xun was taken aback for a moment, thinking that he was going to repent, but he didn't know that he said such a sentence out of nowhere.Raising his eyebrows, he hiccupped a handsome face in an unreasonable way, and retorted, "Why did I mention my brother? That's my brother!"

Bei Yaofei frowned, "Your brother? Hanqi is also your brother, why don't you get close to him?"

"I want to get close to him too? He ignores me."

"Freak! The most ruthless emperor's family, just like you, when the time comes, you won't even know how you died."

"No. My mother said that the royal family is also a family. As long as you treat people with heart, blood is thicker than water."

"Your mother? Empress Cai?"

"Well. And my uncle said the same thing."

"Your uncle? Why haven't I heard of it?" Bei Yaofei seemed to suddenly discover an interesting story, leaning against Yu Xun, looking at him curiously.

Yu Xun didn't want to say more, but for some reason, he just couldn't control his mouth, and quietly recalled the beauty of his childhood, "My uncle is a great general, he is very good at kung fu, he taught me my kung fu. He often came to the palace to visit my mother and me, and brought me many interesting things and stories. He said that the people in this world are the largest, and family love is the most important. So he gave up everything to become an official in the court and accompany me. Mother. My mother also said that with her uncle around, she would not be upset, would not do wrong things, and she would be able to handle even the biggest storms. As long as my uncle is around, she can be a good queen and be the mother of the world."

Yu Xun's voice became smaller and smaller, and gradually became almost inaudible. Bei Yaofei looked at him with a lonely face, and gently pulled him into his arms.

Yu Xun didn't refuse, Li Ren Drunk had a lot of stamina, he felt his whole body was burning, frenzied and irritable, and desperately needed something cool to cool himself down.Leaning on Bei Yaofei's shoulder, he rubbed comfortably, found a comfortable position, drowsy...

"and after?"

The cold voice had indescribable tenderness at the moment, but that question woke up the sleepy Yu Xun and brought him into the vortex of memories again, "Then?..., then my uncle died in battle..."

The person in his arms suddenly started to tremble, Bei Yaofei hugged him tightly, regretting that he had provoked such a topic that made him sad.

Yu Xun blinked his misty eyes, and tightly grasped Bei Yaofei's collar, "Did you know? Uncle wouldn't have died. It was someone in the court who pretended to be military rations, which caused the army's morale to be in turmoil. Uncle did not die." ... Later my mother started to take revenge on those people like crazy."

Bei Yaofei hugged the person in his arms helplessly, he had never heard of these things.He only knew that Empress Cai's power was overwhelmed by the government and the people, and the Cai family was eventually abolished by Emperor Xiaoyin, but he never imagined that there was such an unknown story during this period...

"hey-hey,"

Yu Xun laughed suddenly, Bei Yaofei was taken aback for a moment, looked down at this man who seemed sober but actually not really sober, and gently smoothed his slightly wet silver hair.

"Bei Yaofei, do you know? My uncle once helped your Caohetang."

Bei Yaofei raised his eyebrows, "What? Your uncle helped us?"

"Well, I heard my uncle tell me that Caohetang was besieged by martial arts 20 years ago, and he helped Caohetang. Part of the property of Shuangcaotang belongs to our Cai family."

Seeing Yu Xun who was very serious and showing off, Bei Yaofei's mind started to spin rapidly, "The Cai family? Could it be that your uncle is Danyang Xuejian Cai Tingyun."

"Yes. My mother is Danyang Snow Fairy Cai Tingyun."

Bei Yaofei looked at Yu Xun in astonishment, his mind suddenly stopped, and he casually asked the question in his heart, "The Cai family in Danyang was wiped out 15 years ago, do you know?"
