The BE of the anime turned into a HE

For several days in a row, there was constant discussion in Tianqi City, and countless eyes were fixed on Xueluo Villa, waiting to see what the once most favored prince would do when he returned.

But what was unexpected was that after several days, no one from Xueluo Villa came out, let alone took any action.

Compared to the anxious people outside, the real owner was sleeping soundly. Xiao Se slept for several days in a row and only got up leisurely after he had slept enough.

In the past, his yard was full of servants, but now there was only one person in his room, who was dressing him and tying his hair.

Xiao Se stretched himself and glanced at the person beside him, "Monk, your skills in serving people are becoming more and more proficient."

Wu Xin smiled upon hearing this and hugged him from behind, "Xiao Se, you are a prince! You keep me in your room so openly, aren't you afraid of others knowing?"

"Should I be scared?" Xiao Se asked nonchalantly, taking the hair crown beside him and putting it on Wu Xin. "Let's go! It's time to go out."

Several people had already arrived in the main hall, and they were Lei Wujie and his companions.

"What is Xiao Se doing! He has slept for three consecutive days." Lei Wujie said slowly.

Tang Lian put away the hidden weapon in her hand and said, "Here it comes."

As the words fell, two people walked in, one in white and the other in green. "What's the matter? It's only been a few days and you can't sit still."

Lei Wujie looked at the two of them and said, "I think there is something wrong with you guys?"

"Oh! What's the problem?" Wuxin looked relaxed, but was actually very anxious, fearing that Lei Wujie would not think before speaking.

Lei Wujie pretended to be deep and walked in front of the two people, his face full of seriousness, "That is...that is, Xiao Se, you already knew Wuxin's identity, but you didn't tell me."

Xiao Se knocked Lei Wujie on the forehead without any hesitation, "You deserve to be beaten. You can see such obvious things. How can you still walk in the martial arts world?"

Lei Wujie covered his head with his hands and was about to speak when he saw someone come in.

"Sir, someone is coming from the palace." said Butler Xu.

Xiao Se turned around and looked over, "Who is coming?"

"Eunuch Jin Xuan." Butler Xu replied.

Xiao Se's deep eyes moved slightly. It seemed that his father wanted to see him. "Got it. I'll be there right away."

"I may have to go to the palace, so just wait for me to come back."

Everyone nodded in unison, only Wuxin cast a look at Xiao Se, signaling him to be careful.

"I understand." Xiao Se said it openly, then turned and left.

In the front hall, Xiao Se saw the man in the purple python robe as soon as he came out. There was a strange look in his eyes, "How come Eunuch Jin Xuan has time to come here?"

"Greetings, Sixth Prince." Jin Xuan bowed respectfully and then stepped forward. "His Majesty has summoned me. Please come into the palace as soon as possible."

Xiao Se's face was as calm as water when he heard this, without a single ripple, "Let's go!"

"Your Highness, wait a minute." Jin Xuan hurriedly stopped the man, as if he was about to say something, "Your Highness, how about changing your clothes?"

Xiao Se looked at his gorgeous blue clothes and raised his sleeves. "Any questions?"

Seeing that Xiao Se didn't care, Jin Xuan opened his mouth but said nothing in the end. Thinking that time was running out, he didn't say anything else.

------

In the imperial palace, in the Tai'an Hall.

Hua Jin pulled out the last needle, took a long breath, and slowly put the needle away. "Okay, Your Majesty, this is the end of today's acupuncture."

Emperor Mingde nodded slightly, "Is my disease difficult to cure?"

"Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine, and Hua Jin can't cure this." Hua Jin responded truthfully.

Emperor Mingde was stunned for a moment after hearing this, his cloudy eyes were a little confused, "I understand."

"It's useless to understand it. You have to get rid of it from your heart completely." Hua Jin said, and then asked, "The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Your Majesty, do you know who is your untieer?"

Emperor Mingde sighed, with a flash of sadness in his eyes, "There is no solution. He is dead. I killed him."

When the servants heard this, they all retreated at the same time. Prince Langya was a taboo and no one else could mention him. Even when His Majesty mentioned him, they were not allowed to listen.

Hua Jin was stunned for a moment, "Dead?"

Emperor Mingde nodded, "Yes! He died, and I just watched helplessly, doing nothing. Perhaps I didn't dare to do anything."

"Or maybe I was hoping for his death. I can't remember what it was like, but I just know that I've had a heart attack since then."

"Maybe it's God's punishment for my cold-bloodedness."

Hua Jin handed over the medicine at hand, "Your Majesty, drink the medicine first! Perhaps you have your reasons!"

Emperor Mingde looked at the black medicine with a frown on his face, and drank it all in one gulp with a heroic look.

"It's still as bitter as before. I remember Chu He hated taking medicine the most. He would make a fuss for a long time every time. I don't know if Jin Xuan picked up Chu He!"

"Chu He also likes him the most. When we were little, he always pestered me to take him there. It seems that we were no different from when we were little."

"I don't know when it changed, or maybe it was me who changed. When we were young, our mother died. She was not favored to begin with, and after she died, no one cared about her."

"Although he and I are princes, we are worse off dead than alive. That winter, he was sick, very sick, but no one took it seriously. They just randomly sent a royal doctor."

"But the doctor's medical skills were limited. He only took a few glances and said that he couldn't cure the disease and that he was powerless."

"So he died on that day." Hua Jin asked.

Emperor Mingde shook his head and said slowly, "No, he is not dead. The rumor outside is that I went to the Imperial Hospital to beg for help, and knelt down to beg the imperial physician with good medical skills."

"Because I'm a prince, they couldn't bear such a kneeling ceremony, so they had no choice but to follow me to save him, and finally rescued him."

"Your Majesty is a man of loyalty and righteousness." Hua Jin took the medicine bowl and placed it on the table.

"It's fake." Emperor Mingde sneered, "That was said by someone else. In fact, I was the one who brought the sword. I rushed to the Imperial Hospital and put the sword on the doctor's neck to force him."

"From that day on, I vowed to become the most powerful person in the world, the emperor above all others, and I would protect him from being bullied again."

"Later, I became the emperor. He was the King of Langya in Beili, commanding a large army. Not only Beili, but even the whole world was afraid of us, but he still died."

"I killed him, just like the sword in his hand was held in my hand. I killed him. I had no power before, but I was willing to sacrifice my life to protect him."

"Later, I stood at the pinnacle of power, but I also lost my original courage and the heart to protect him. I watched him die in front of me and did nothing."

Emperor Mingde lifted the quilt and sat on the edge of the bed.

Hua Jin hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Your Majesty, why do you no longer call yourself "Gu" when you talk about him?"

Emperor Mingde smiled and said, "We are brothers. He is my younger brother and will be for life, and I am just his older brother."

There was a knock on the door, "Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince is here."

"Let Chu He in." Emperor Mingde ordered, and then looked at Hua Jin, "Divine Doctor, you go back first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty," Hua Jin said politely.

When Hua Jin went out, he happened to meet Xiao Se who came in. He couldn't help but look at him a few more times, "You are fine."

"Okay, completely fine, thanks to the miracle doctor." Xiao Se said with a smile.

Hua Jin glanced at Xiao Se and said, "Forget it! That's the business of immortals and has nothing to do with me."

Xiao Se nodded without saying anything else and walked in.

Looking at the person on the bed, a flash of emotion flashed across his eyes. He walked slowly forward, without greeting or speaking, just watching.

It's been four years, and I seem to have aged a lot.

Emperor Mingde also looked at Xiao Se with kindness in his eyes, and then he started coughing.

Seeing this, Xiao Se sighed softly, walked forward, took the cloak beside him, put it on Emperor Mingde, and tied it carefully, but did not say anything.

"It's been four years, Chu He, how have you been?" Emperor Mingde's voice sounded slowly, breaking the silence.

Xiao Se stepped aside and said expressionlessly, "I'm fine, but you don't seem to be so well."

"Yes! Aging, illness and death are normal." Emperor Mingde smiled rarely, "I am still angry about what happened back then."

Xiao Se was stunned, "No, I just want to know the truth of the past."

"The truth!" Emperor Mingde murmured, "Come out for a walk with me!"

Xiao Se stopped Emperor Mingde from moving, "Forget it! It was snowing when I came here, so it's better not to go out. It's very cold."

"I'll just watch from the door, I won't get in the way." Emperor Mingde said.

Xiao Se thought for a moment, unable to make a decision, but the man in front of him had already stood up and walked outside, muttering, "Really, he's still so willful even when he's old."

He then followed and supported Emperor Mingde.

Outside the Tai'an Palace, the sky was full of white snow, which fell one after another, dyeing the ground white bit by bit. "It was also a snowy night like this that year. Your uncle was sick and he cried out that he was cold. I held him tightly until the snow stopped at dawn."

Xiao Se reached out his hand to take Xue's hand, and said calmly, "I know. I heard from the Emperor's uncle that you fell ill the next day, and the two of you lay in bed together and drank medicine."

Emperor Mingde glanced at Xiao Se and said, "Then I'll tell you something. You don't know. When you were three years old, you insisted that you could grow up if you were planted in the snow. When the palace maids weren't paying attention, you buried yourself in the snow. I dug it out."

Xiao Se coughed lightly, shook off the water in his palms, and a flash of embarrassment flashed across his face, "Can you not talk about this?"

"Let's go back!" Emperor Mingde said and walked inside.

Xiao Se glanced at the snow outside, but he was thinking of another person in his heart. He didn't know whether Wu Xin was afraid of the cold.

Emperor Mingde returned to the palace with the help of Xiao Se. The two of them were silent again and no one spoke.

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" asked Emperor Mingde.

Xiao Se raised his eyebrows and looked over, "What do you want me to say?"

“For example, do you have a girl you like? I think the girl from the Ye family is pretty good. She is your childhood sweetheart and will be a great help to you in the future.” Emperor Mingde said with a smile.

When Xiao Se heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If Lei Wujie knew this, he would have to draw his sword and chop him, and Wuxin would have to run back to Tianwaitian.

"I don't like it, but I have someone I like."

"Which girl is she? I think the one you like must be pretty. You are already grown up and don't know how to get married." Emperor Mingde said.

Xiao Se's mind flashed with Wu Xin's face, and he couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, "He is indeed very handsome, even prettier than me."

"Oh! You actually admit that she is prettier than you. She must be stunningly beautiful. Bring her to me to see her someday, or tell me about that lady." Emperor Mingde said with interest.

Xiao Se glanced sideways and shook his head, "Forget it, bringing it back will piss you off to death, let's wait until you feel better."

Emperor Mingde's eyes flashed with doubt, but he did not continue to ask, but talked about another matter, "I will tell you what happened in the past, and you can sit in my seat, okay?"

"No." Xiao Se refused, "That place is too cold. It's so cold that you're alone and you won't have freedom anymore."

"Yes! It's too cold, and I can't help myself." Emperor Mingde nodded slightly, "I really don't consider it. You are the most suitable person."

Xiao Se refused again, "Don't think about it, I will find out."

Emperor Mingde knew Xiao Se's temper. No one could change what he had decided. "Then change someone else. Tell me who that girl is, and I'll tell you the truth of that year."

"No, I have Bai Xiaotang anyway, I will know sooner or later." Xiao Se said.

Emperor Mingde thought of that man, "Is your master okay?"

"Not very good." Xiao Se thought of the news he had recently received and sighed slightly, "He's alive, but his martial arts are useless."

Emperor Mingde glanced at the Wuji stick on Xiao Se's waist and thought it was real, so he gave the Wuji stick to Xiao Se, "Forget it, I will tell you the truth of that year."

"In fact, Ruofeng quelled the Nanjue Rebellion and saved Beili in times of crisis. The people supported him and all the officials in the court were convinced."

"And I can barely be considered a wise ruler! Compared to Ruofeng's record, I am almost useless, so everyone in the government and the country wants Ruofeng to be the emperor."

"But Ruofeng didn't want to do it, but everyone forced him to do it. The final result was that Ruofeng died. This was the best solution he could think of, and I acquiesced."

Although Xiao Se had guessed it in his mind, he still couldn't accept it when he heard it. "Was there no other way to choose?"

"Maybe!" Emperor Mingde sighed, "But no, everything happened too fast. Ruofeng and I were caught off guard. In the end, his death ended the chaos."

"But it was my fault. I didn't have the courage to stop it. I kept the truth public for so many years. I only found out about Zhuo Qing later. I killed him."

Xiao Se was not too surprised. When he returned to Tianqi, Ji Xue told him what happened that year. The master rushed to stop Yan Zhantian. After a fierce battle between the two, Yan Zhantian left.

He was hit by one palm from Zhuoqing, and his master was hit by eighteen palms, but they still took him away, and there was no news of his master afterwards.

But he knew that his master must not be dead, and he recently found out that he was in Medicine King Valley.
