The second story of the ancient sword II

The first rooster crowing in the morning cut through the dawn, and Yi Ze put his hand on the quilt beside him while he was half asleep and half awake, "Ah Ruan, Ah Ruan..." He mumbled.

"Hmm..." After groping for a while, there was nothing around her, rubbing the center of her brows, and sitting up vigorously.I don't know how she passed that night, she is a fool, and she doesn't know if she has food.

The gray sky shrouded Chang'an's main street, and the wind was a bit chilly in the cold morning, so Yi went to the place where he picked up A Ruan's shoes and looked around.When I picked it up, the direction of the shoes was facing the market, and the opposite market had been searched last night.While he was in a daze, a horse passed across the market, and at some point a child about three or four years old appeared in the middle of the road.Frightened by the galloping horses, he just stood there and cried loudly.Yi Ze woke up suddenly, jumped in front of the horse, picked up the child, and rushed to the opposite side of the road.When he knelt down to appease the child, he lowered his head, and a neat row of wagon wheel marks on the road caught his attention.

The carriage wheel marks of six horses, only royal people would ride in such a carriage.Which dignitary will pass by the apostasy behind this alley?Li Kang obviously went out from the alley yesterday, so this round of seals must be someone else.Could it be that Ah Ruan got into this car?Yi Ze thought wildly in his mind, such a judgment seemed to have no basis.It was just his imagination, Yi Ze nodded his forehead, trying to wake himself up.

Perhaps it was time to go back to the palace, but Yi suddenly recalled the scene at the mass grave last night.I guess that person didn't know about this tragedy, right?Li Kang's actions should also be exposed in front of him.Thinking of this, Yi found a place behind and formed a magic circle for teleportation.

"There is a severe drought in the south of the Yangtze River, how is the distribution of relief food going?" The voice approached, and a golden wide sleeve embroidered with dragon patterns came into the corner of his eyes, and Yi Ze leaned towards the bushes alertly.

"Back to the emperor, this...in fact..." The Taiwei was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, seeing that the fire could not be contained in the paper.

"What do you mean by Aiqing?!" Emperor Sheng Yuan's voice was majestic.

Yi, who was hiding not far away, clenched his sword hand tightly, his sword eyebrows were erected, and when he saw Emperor Sheng Yuan's anger, he rushed straight to the top of his head.Why hide from him?Yi Ze cursed in his heart.With a dodge, he suddenly appeared in front of Emperor Sheng Yuan, making a beautiful sword move, and the slender and cold blade pressed against his chest.

Seeing his long-lost son suddenly, Emperor Sheng Yuan was both surprised and happy, but he couldn't help being angry when he looked at the three-foot long sword on his chest.The Taiwei on the side had already turned pale with fright, trembling in his mouth, "Third, third prince... quick, put down the sword..."

"You scoundrel!" Shouted Emperor Sheng Yuan, "How dare you be unreasonable to me?!"

"The emperor calms down..."

"You, step back!" Emperor Sheng Yuan waved his sleeves towards the Taiwei.

"Yi Ze..." Emperor Sheng Yuan's tough eyes flashed a trace of pity.

"You stupid king!" Yi Ze said without any expression on his face, "The disaster has spread to Chang'an, yet you are still dreaming! There are still many people in Chang'an who can't afford food, let alone other lands."

"I know how to cook myself!" Emperor Sheng Yuan's tone became tough again. "You came here to kill me?"

"I want to kill you with my own hands to avenge my mother and concubine!" Yi Ze's eyes sparkled, "Do you still remember this Qingtielong Shengfushou Ruyi Pei? She... will still miss you until she dies , her remnant soul has been staying here all the time, just because she misses a person like you and doesn't want to leave. She didn't want to be taken away by that bastard Li Kang, and imprisoned the soul of the concubine mother in Xianlinyuan In the underground soul-absorbing circle! Li Kang has done absolutely bad things, have you ever cared about him? But every day he thinks about killing me, the so-called son of a half-demon!"

"Yi Ze, when did my father want to kill you?" Emperor Sheng Yuan filtered Yi Ze's words one by one in his mind, "How could your second brother do such a cruel thing to your mother and concubine?"

"Women's morals are bad, is this your affection for my mother and concubine?" Yi Ze's eyes were frosty. "Let me write clearly on the imperial decree to commit suicide!"

"Imperial decree? I have never given any decree to you!"

"If there is such a wicked son, if he enters, he will cause disaster to the government; if he exits, he will bring disaster to the people. Under the nine springs, he will be ashamed of his ancestors... proclaim my decree, give him poison, and order him to commit suicide immediately..." Yi Ze read, "Are you serious? I don't know?"

"Bastard...cough cough..." Emperor Shengyuan clenched his fists and coughed uncontrollably.

"I...don't kill you now, Li Kang's mess needs someone to clean up!" Yi Ze suddenly withdrew his sword, "I came here today to tell you that the food distributed by the imperial court is not enough for the hungry people in the poor alley, so, Many surviving people were abandoned in the mass graves outside the city. This is what I saw with my own eyes. The hungry are also human beings, so how can you bear such a murderous hand?!"

"Hahaha..." Emperor Shengyuan raised his head and laughed loudly, "Heaven has eyes, my son treats the people with such generosity! Hongshan, your son is really promising!"

Yi didn't make a sound, a chill flickered at the corner of his mouth, he retracted his sword to his side, and turned to leave.

"Stop!" Emperor Sheng Yuan shouted, "You came here to tell me this?"

"There are other things."

"Yi Ze..."

"It's none of your business."

"You, you sent your concubine mother away, then...she..."

"Sent back to Mingzhuhai... She, reincarnated. Never... will never come back..." Yi Ze felt a pain in his heart, and still turned his back to him, "Are you satisfied?"

"Zhen...Zhen..." Emperor Shengyuan paused, "My son, what my father owes you... will definitely be returned to you."

"Do you still have to come back, Mother Concubine?" Yi Ze dropped a cold sentence.

Emperor Shengyuan was stunned for a moment, watching Yi Ze's back gradually become blurred from clear... Yes, I will never come back to Hongshan again, and I will never go back to what I owe her in this life.But, Yi Ze, how much do you know how much your heart hurts when you gave your mother to die for your father?If she does not die, even if you are already a human being, it will still be evidence that you were once a different kind.

"Gululu..." The well rope swayed, wobbled a few times, and then fell down unceremoniously.The heavy bucket of water sank into the bottom of the well with a plop, causing a large silvery white spray.

"I don't believe it, I can't pick it up!" Ah Ruan gritted his teeth, clutching the water pulley by the well with both hands, "I'm no worse than anyone else. Although I can't use spiritual power, my strength can still be developed. I want Live well, and live until the day when barbarians succeed!" A Ruan, a corner of the ruined palace overgrown with grass, changed into the costume of an ordinary court lady, and tied her long hair into a high bun like them, with her face facing the sky. No decoration is still beautiful.

"Ah yo—quick—work harder—ah yo... ah... ah..." Ah Ruan rolled up her wide sleeves, her little hands were flushed from the cold, and her pink and white face was covered with sweat.There was another grunt, and the bucket sank into the bottom of the well again disobediently.

"Angry, I'm so pissed!" Ah Ruan stomped his feet angrily.

Outside the yard, a figure walked quickly, wearing a gray robe.It's Yi Ze!Ah Ruan quickly ran to the door, silently watching him gradually go away, the blurred back.

"You, did you see him?" Suddenly a voice broke into my ears.A Ruan trembled in shock, and raised her tear-filled eyes.In front of her was the woman who sent her in, with a stern look on her charming face.

"I...wouldn't look for him." Ah Ruan lowered his head.

"Whether you want to go or not is all up to you. I can bring you here, but I can't trap your legs. It's best to understand the relationship. If you stay here, you can also keep you safe. Sigh..." Kong Zhaoyi The fierce look disappeared instantly, and the upward phoenix eyebrows were bent downward.Seeing Ah Ruan's sad look, her heart softened a little.If a woman is only for her own man, this is the best shackle to imprison herself. Kong Zhaoyi smiled wryly at this thought, "How many people have suffered for a love word? I also know. I will send someone to tell him, you very safe."

"Okay...thank you..." Ah Ruan's heart ached as if it was shattered, and when he turned around, his pupils were already wet.

"Don't...thank me. If it wasn't for me, why would you be separated...Forget it, I don't know if what I did was right or wrong..." Kong Zhaoyi had helplessness in his eyes, "I owe him protection. "

Yi quickly passed the palace walls one after another, he knew that he was not sure that he could find Ah Ruan here, but there always seemed to be a voice in his heart telling him that she was here.This intuition made him search all the time, unwilling to leave for a long time.

"Have you heard? A very beautiful girl came to the Feng Stage to perform a dance." Two little maids who passed by Yi Ze talked as they walked.

"Yeah, I heard that the girl dances very well, and the sword dance is also very good. It would be great if I could go and see..."

Phoenix stage?Yi Ze thought about that place in his heart, it was a place for watching singing and dancing in the palace, and some dancers from outside often came to perform dances.Will Ah Ruan go there?She dances well too.Although there was no definite reason why she would go there to perform dances, Yi Ze still took steps towards it.

There was a brisk music, and a girl in green was dancing on the stage.Yi Ze stared intently, but only saw a pair of Jianshuiqiu pupils, and his face was covered by a thin silk veil.The sound of the piano sounded, and the girl turned around, her eyes were full of affection, her waist and limbs were like willows, soft but firm.The sleeves are shaken and a long rainbow pours out, the hem of the skirt flutters and turns like durian flowers in April, and the layers are like a new heart blooming, dancing all over the city.

The girl's figure looked somewhat similar to Ah Ruan's, but Yi was burning with anxiety.All the empresses and ladies in the audience couldn't help admiring, and the crowd formed a barrier in front of Yi Ze.How can I see her face?Yi was thinking about it, faintly worried whether Ah Ruan was coerced to come here to perform the dance.

Suddenly the long sword rose into the air, and Yi turned sideways and flew towards the Fengtai stage.The girl looked back, met Shang Yize's pupils, and was stunned for a moment, then calmly drew out the long sword she had prepared to deal with it.The audience exclaimed how could a man rush onto the stage suddenly, all of them turned pale.But the beautiful sword dance quickly became the highlight of the stage. Yi Ze's handsome face, skillful body skills, and the woman's strong and soft sword moves all made the audience cheered endlessly.A few flew down, the woman was not Yi Ze's opponent after all.

"Ah——" the strength gradually weakened, Yi Ze's long sword was thrown, and the thin white gauze was blown away by the wind, revealing the woman's face without a doubt.

Yi Ze fixed his eyes and realized that it was not Ah Ruan, so he withdrew and jumped out of the Feng stage.
