The importance of cannon fodder

Chapter 379
"And the purple qi means that the emperor is a virtuous emperor. When the purple qi comes from the east, the luck of the whole country will be prosperous. If some emperors have a faint red layer, it means that the emperor is good at martial arts. Or, there will be wars, and it is an ominous sign that the emperor is surrounded by a layer of black air, and this black air usually appears on the body of a faint emperor."

"Oh, Jiu Yao understands." Jiu Yao looked at the emperor who was over half a century old wearing a yellow robe, and was meticulously correcting the memorial in his hand.

He really looks like a gentleman.

At this moment, Jiu Yao heard a thin voice again, and saw a eunuch walk in, and said next to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the prince is begging to see you."

"No, let him reflect on it." The emperor shook his head and refused without thinking.

"However, the prince knelt outside the door and said that if you don't go out, he won't get up."

"It's just nonsense." At this moment, the emperor put the pen in his hand heavily on the copy.

"Prince, is that Brother Feng Chi?"

"En." Shen Lian nodded.

"Why doesn't the emperor see Big Brother Fengchi?" Jiu Yao asked in puzzlement.

"Let me take a look at Jiu Yao's little brain, is there a three thousand questions in it?" Shen Lian did not answer Jiu Yao's question, but hugged Jiu Yao on his lap, and they sat on the beam.

"Big brother," Jiu Yao knew that Shen Lian was teasing her again.

"Nine Demons are just curious."

"Little girl." Shen Lian scratched Jiu Yao's small nose, "Guess why?"

"Jiu Yao couldn't think of it." Jiu Yao shook his head.

"The prince said that if you don't see him, he will keep kneeling." The eunuch said in a thin, thin voice.

"Let him in." A trace of displeasure flashed across the emperor's face.

"Yes." After the eunuch made a bow, he withdrew very respectfully.

After a while, Jiu Yao saw Feng Chi.

Although they returned to the capital together, Feng Chi cared about Xiao Qi very much, so Jiu Yao separated from them.

Shen Lian took Jiu Yao to play around the capital.

Jiu Yao hasn't seen Xiao Qi for several days, and she doesn't know how she is doing.

"Father." Feng Chi entered and knelt down in front of the emperor.

The emperor continued to correct the memorial, seemingly unaware of the arrival of the prince in front of him.

After a long, long time, the number of memorials in front of the emperor became less and less, and after finishing the last one, Feng Chi still knelt on the ground.

"You unfilial son, there are so many women in the world, why do you choose her?" The emperor looked at Feng Chi and couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, I only want her." Feng Chi's eyes were firm, and his tone was even firmer.

"I once promised her mother that Xiaoqi will never marry into the palace in the future." The emperor sighed again, "I am the emperor, and I can't go back on my word. If you want to marry Xiaoqi, you must marry Xiaoqi before the throne." Choose one of the two, Feng Chi, you are the child I value the most, and I am relieved to leave the world to you, but now you have lost your mind because of a girl."

"Father, I don't want anything, I only want Xiao Qi." Feng Chi said again.

"You child, you really want to piss me off." The emperor gasped twice, "A man has ambitions everywhere, how can he abandon the great rivers and mountains for a woman?"

"Father, I have always known what I want. I don't want to chase fame and wealth anymore. I only want Xiao Qi." Feng Chi said persistently.

"Alas—" the emperor sighed for the third time, "Since that's the case, you can sit up." The emperor told Feng Chi to stand up.

"Father, do you agree?" Feng Chi excitedly got up from the ground and fell in love.

"Forget it, forget it, I don't want to care about you anymore." The emperor shook his head, "I hope you won't regret it in the future."

"I won't." Feng Chi happily opened the door and walked out.

"Big brother, does Feng Chi want to ask the emperor to agree to his marriage with Xiao Qi?" No matter how slow Jiu Yao was, he understood what Feng Chi meant.

"En." Shen Lian nodded, his face was slightly stiff, "Nine Yao, we may not be able to catch up with this wedding."

"What a pity." After hearing this, Jiu Yao thought of her first and only friend. Xiao Qi was getting married, but she couldn't attend.

"Fool, I lied to you." Shen Lian couldn't help laughing at Jiu Yao's sad face.

"Big brother, you're so good or bad." Jiu Yao didn't expect that Shen Lian was playing tricks on her.

"We can stay for another 10 days. From what I know about Ye Qing, within these ten days, he will definitely hold a wedding banquet." Shen Lian said confidently.

"?" Jiu Yao blinked and couldn't help asking again: "Really?"

"Well, it's more real than real gold." Shen Lian's eyes flickered, "Nine Yao, I haven't told you one thing."

"Big brother, what's the matter?" Why does Jiu Yao feel that what big brother is about to tell her doesn't seem like a good thing?

"Jiu Yao, last time, when you and Xiao Qi were rescued from the cave, in fact Xiao Qi only had her last breath left. The situation was urgent at that time. I used the elixir to extend her life for half a month, but "Shen Lian changed the subject, "This elixir can only give Xiaoqi half a month at most."

"Big brother, are you saying that little sister Qi won't live long?" Jiu Yao asked a little uncomfortable.

"En." Shen Lian nodded gently.

This time, he wanted to give Xiao Qi's soul fragment to Na.

He knew that only after Xiao Qi died could the soul fragments belonging to Jiu Yao come out of her body.

If he didn't guess wrong, it should be for this matter that Ye Qing traveled through the world of mortals, otherwise, why did he appear by Xiao Qi's side by such a coincidence?
The word Shen Lian least believed in - coincidence.

"Big brother?" Jiu Yao noticed that Shen Lian was distracted, so he called out.

"Well, Jiu Yao, what's wrong?" Shen Lian withdrew her thoughts.

"Big brother, I want to accompany Xiao Qi." Jiu Yao didn't expect that Xiao Qi would die. Her lively appearance seemed like yesterday. Jiu Yao thought that Xiao Qi would get better.

However, it didn't seem like Ye Qing could do anything, did Xiao Qi disappear like this?
Jiu Yao couldn't even imagine how Xiao Qi was lying on the bed, looking at her with a reluctant smile.

"Don't cry." Shen Lian didn't expect Jiu Yao to be so sad, her big eyes were filled with tears.

"Big Brother, Jiu Yao is just such a friend in the world."

"There will be other friends, Jiu Yao don't worry." Shen Lian deliberately changed the subject, he knew that Jiu Yao didn't care if he had other friends.

"Big brother, but there is only one Xiao Qi, isn't there?" Jiu Yao's bright black eyes were red, and his appearance was very pitiful.
