After Chen Qi twitched violently, as if his strength had been drained, he slowly collapsed on the ground, and there was no more movement.Only blood kept pouring out from his chest, staining the bluestone bricks and Yan Jing's eyes red.

Yan Jing's hand holding the sword slowly let go, the long sword landed, fell into the pool of blood, and made a soft sound, Yan Jing looked at it blankly, only felt that the scarlet was particularly dazzling, and blinked vigorously , but still can't get it out of my mind.

A slightly cool palm covered his eyes from behind, and then held the hand he had raised the sword just now, pulled his back and turned around, and then slowly let go of it.Yan Jing blinked lightly, then opened her eyes, and fell into a pair of clear eyes.

Yan Jing stared blankly until her eyes were slightly bent, showing a little smile, and she couldn't help but curl her lips.

No matter how deep-rooted hatred you have experienced, how much blood your hands are stained with, when you look back, you can still see the smile of the young man. For Yan Jing, there is nothing better in this world than this.

Because of the battle just now, Cui Wei's originally tied long hair was a little messy, and a strand of hair stuck to his face, Yan Jing couldn't help reaching out, gently brushing it away, and wiped it off by the way. The blood was stained on the boy's face, and then he let out a long breath of relief as if he had accomplished something extraordinary: "Ah Wei," he said slowly, "It's all over."

He took Cui Wei's hand, and slowly pressed it to his heart, then took a step forward, put his chin on Cui Wei's shoulder, put his arms around his waist, and closed his eyes as if he was relieved.

All the uprooting, displacement, all the uneasiness and pain, up to this moment, will come to an end completely.Even though he was never the one to be expected to, it was he who ended it all.

"At the end, I will see Your Highness."

The sudden voice interrupted Yan Jing's thoughts, he frowned slightly, reluctantly let go of Cui Wei in his arms, stood up straight and turned his head, saw Fu Yue who had returned from the blood bath, and nodded slightly: "General Fu has worked hard."

"The last general dare not." Fu Yue clasped his hands together, then slowly raised his head, nodded towards Cui Wei who was looking at him, and then said, "Except for the rebels who resisted and were killed, the original guards in charge of the city Nearly [-] people in the Southwest Army have surrendered their weapons and surrendered. General Qin is leading his men to clean up the battlefield and promises that the capital will be restored to its former peace within three days. In addition, General Li has already led his men into the imperial city to investigate and spread the news Come back, the rebels in the imperial city have been cleaned up, you can go back to the palace, Your Highness."

Yan Jing didn't answer, just took a look at Fu Yue, then walked slowly to the edge of the city wall, looked up, all he could see was the deserted streets and alleys because of the rising of the war, and far away, was Yan Jing who had been a child since childhood. The imperial city that grew up.

It used to be the most prosperous and noble place in the whole world, but it experienced ups and downs and twists and turns in just a few months. Many majestic palaces were burned down, and many nobles who used to be high above died in the war.It was only at this moment that Yan Jing really felt his deeply suppressed feelings for the imperial city that was once regarded as a cage.

The palm that had been slightly cold suddenly grabbed Yan Jing's hand. Yan Jing looked back and saw Cui Wei standing beside him, looking into the distance with him. He suddenly felt that all the emotions accumulated in his heart disappeared. Many things have been lost in just a few months, but there is always one person who stays, and, no matter when, he will stand by his side.

Thinking of this, a little smile appeared on Yan Jing's lips, and he reached out and gently touched Cui Wei's face: "Then Awei, let's go."

"Your Highness! I just forgot to say that the civil and military officials who were imprisoned in the imperial city and survived are waiting to be interviewed in the Taining Hall." The two of them didn't move, but Fu Yue opened his mouth first. Cui Wei swept his body up and down, "It's easy to talk about other things, but they have been guarded by the Southwest soldiers for a long time, so it is inevitable that there will be some panic. Our general looks like a killer... I'm afraid they will think that your highness is taking the general to the end. Their."

Cui Wei opened his eyes slightly, and then remembered to look down at himself, he was already wearing thin clothes today, and the only outer robe was just outside the city... and he left it for sister.Afterwards, I was so red-eyed that I had no time to take this matter into consideration. I lowered my head and realized that after this fight, the original white shirt on my body could not be seen at all. If it looks like this, follow Yan Jing to see Those civil and military officials seemed a little scary.

Yan Jing's eyes also fell on Cui Wei, his expression was calm, and he even rolled up Cui Wei's slightly long cuffs calmly, and then glanced at Fu Yue: "A Wei has been in the army for a long time, and he doesn't care about it. Xiaojie, what’s wrong with this? What’s more,” he smiled softly, and took Cui Wei’s hand again, “just let the adults take a good look at it. When they were frightened in the capital, others experienced it. something."

Cui Wei was stunned for a moment when his hand was held, and Yan Jing took him a few steps forward, then stopped suddenly, turned to look at Fu Yue who hadn't recovered yet: "Take off the outer robe and give it to me."

"What?" Fu Yue didn't know if he hadn't recovered from Yan Jing's words just now, and looked at Cui Wei in a daze.

Cui Wei sniffled, and pointed at Fu Yue, who was actually very embarrassed, but because it was black, the robe was not so obvious: "I can't really just go like this, can I?" He turned his head and looked around. With a glance, "Where do you want me to find another robe at this time?"

Fu Yue couldn't believe what he heard, and subconsciously turned his gaze to Yan Jing: "But His Highness just said..."

Yan Jing looked back at the two of them, frowned and thought for a while: "The weather in early spring is a bit cold, it's good for Ah Wei to wear a coat, but General Fu will find another one for himself later. .”

Fu Yue: "...the subordinate obeys the order."

The dark black robe was worn on the body, making the young man look heroic and upright. Cui Wei tied up his hair again, picked up the long sword that had just fallen to the ground, wiped the back of the sword and put it on his body again, examining himself up and down, After feeling that nothing was wrong, Cui Wei raised his eyes and looked at Yan Jing who had been quietly waiting by the side, stood up straight, cupped his fists and said, "The last general will escort His Highness back to the palace."

Yan Jing slightly bent his eyes, with endless tenderness in his eyes, he took Cui Wei's hand again, and interlocked his fingers: "Ah Wei, you are accompanying me, accompany me back to the palace, and accompany me on the road ahead."

The temperature of the palm spread to the heart, Cui Wei nodded lightly: "Okay."

At first glance, the imperial city after simple cleaning is not much different from the memory, but when you really enter it, you can clearly feel what kind of hardships the imperial city has endured in the past few months .

Yan Jing rode his horse along the streets and alleys of the imperial city. Many scenes that he thought he had forgotten for a long time came to his mind. He has fed fish countless times. In the open space in front of Yongning Palace, he once flew a kite. When he was young, he couldn't stand the sneering words from others, so he climbed over the west wall in an attempt to escape from the palace.

Yan Jing carried these turbulent memories all the way into the inner palace. When he got off his horse in front of the Taining Palace, he was stunned at a burned palace not far away with only the frame left. Remembering what place it used to be, he turned his gaze in a daze and said in a low voice, "Ah Wei, do you still remember where it was?"

Cui Wei looked in the direction of his finger, and after a moment of surprise, he said softly, "Brother Jing, it's Yongshou Palace."

"Yongshou Palace," Yan Jing repeated in a low voice, then shook her head lightly, "Yes, I should have thought of it, Chen Qi hated my father so much, of course he wanted to destroy everything related to him, It’s not a big deal to burn down only one Yongshou Palace.”

He lowered his eyes slightly, not knowing whether he was speaking to Cui Wei or himself: "It's no big deal if it burns, anyway, what's lost will always be taken back slowly." After saying that, he turned his gaze back and looked at Taining in front of him. Dian, raised his lips slightly, "Let's go, Ah Wei, all the officials are still waiting for us inside."

Cui Wei straightened his waist, held the long sword at his waist with his right hand, suppressed the smile on his face, and nodded to Yan Jing with a bit of coercion after returning from the bloody battle: "Okay."

Yan Jing looked at him like this, and couldn't help laughing. Cui Wei, who was smiling straight, couldn't help but look at himself: "Brother Jing, what's wrong? I still have a problem with my body. Is it because Fu Yue's robe doesn't fit well?"

Yan Jing shook her head lightly, with a gentle smile in her eyes: "I was just thinking that when I saw you like this for the first time, my fear at that time should be the same as that of the officials in the hall at the moment. "

Cui Wei blinked, his memory was shaken by Yan Jing's words, as if he had returned to the vast sandy sea all of a sudden, the long sword in his hand pointed directly at Yan Jing, wishing to kill him immediately.Unexpectedly, by chance and coincidence, after all kinds of twists and turns, the relationship between the two has completely changed.Speaking of his misunderstanding at the time, Cui Wei was still a little embarrassed, he touched his nose, and whispered: "Then brother Jing still feels scared now?"

"No more," Yan Jing shook his head, and said firmly, "Now only if you are not by my side, I will feel scared."

Cui Wei just walked a few steps slower, and happened to be standing under a few steps lower. Hearing this, he couldn't help looking at Yan Jing. It was obvious that this person was only wearing a simple robe with small sleeves at the moment. Naturally, he wouldn't look good after a fierce fight, but even so, he still couldn't hide his aura.Just looking at it like this can easily tug at your own heartstrings.

Cui Wei's fingers moved, and finally he clenched the long sword in his hand again: "Then Brother Jing will never have to be afraid again, because I will always be by your side."

Just looking at his side face, I can't bear to leave anymore.
