The night before the incident happened, Chu Yan and Chong Yang were in the study, discussing about forcing the palace tomorrow.

The two talked about the middle of the night, Chongyang went down to prepare, and Chu Yan was about to go out, but suddenly saw a figure standing at the door.

When he saw the man's face clearly, his face darkened instantly, "Why are you here?"

Afraid of his cold face, Chao Luo lowered her head subconsciously.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Chu Yan frowned and said, "I'll ask Jin Lan to send you to chase Uncle Chen."

"Don't." Chao Luo said quickly, "I have something to say."

Chu Yan didn't ask her what was the matter, and there was a hint of irritability in her voice.

"What's the matter with Uncle Chen, I didn't ask him to watch you."

"It's none of Uncle Chen's business." Chao Luo waved his hands anxiously, "I sneaked here by myself."

"..."

Chu Yan's eyes flashed sharply, and he said coldly, "I'm not as patient as Fu Shiyu."

"One last time, I will ask Jin Lan to take you back later."

Chao Luo's face turned pale with fright from his sinister eyes, she bit her lower lip, and after a long silence, she finally shook her head slowly.

"Since I'm here, I don't plan to go back."

Just as Chu Yan was about to speak, he saw a white figure walking out from behind Chao Luo.

"I said, if she doesn't want to go back, don't persuade her."

In the cold weather, Zhuang Yue wore a thin white shirt with the skirt slightly open, revealing a clear collarbone line.

As soon as he saw him, Chu Yan's face suddenly became stormy, and a pair of dark eyes with hidden sharpness seemed to drive two blood holes in Zhuang Yue's face.

"It's your fault."

"The heart of a villain is the heart of a gentleman." Zhuang Yue rolled his eyes and said bluntly, "Do you think everyone is as bad as you?"

Chu Yan had long been used to this person's inexplicable hostility towards him, so he frowned and asked, "Then what's going on with her?"

Zhuang Yue yawned, and said lazily: "This girl begged me all day to take her to the capital. I was too noisy, so I had to lead her to you."

Chu Yan's face was gloomy, "You know what she represents, and you clearly did it on purpose."

Zhuang Yue looked heartless, "Whether it was intentional or unintentional, I didn't force her to come."

Seeing his appearance, Chu Yan was a little speechless.

He is not a person who can speak eloquently, and he has no great love in his heart. Once Zhuang Yue said this, he couldn't think of how to refute it for a while.

"I wanted to come by myself." Chao Luo repeated again.

Sensing Chu Yan's sharp eyes falling on her face, although she was timid in her heart, she still raised her head, looked directly into his gaze, and said firmly, "Since this Gu was caused by Shen Yanting, I owe him a life, so I will pay this debt for him."

Chu Yan frowned, and said indifferently, "You can do whatever you want in the future."

"But this time, you have to go to Nanyang with Uncle Chen and the others."

Zhao Luo glanced at him with warning eyes, and suddenly smiled shallowly, with a rare cunning of a girl in his eyes, "Are you worried about your son getting angry?"

"If you are still thinking about Fu Shiyu, then don't do anything stupid." Chu Yan said impatiently, "I still have important matters to deal with, so I will send someone to take you back now."

"I said, I won't go back."

Although Chao Luo's voice was soft, there was no hint of hesitation at all.

She looked at Chu Yan, and said slowly: "The purpose of my coming today is to let you gather all the people who have been infected by the Gu outside the south gate of the palace tomorrow, and I will wait for them there."

"In this way, you and His Highness the Third Prince will have nothing to worry about, and you can attack the palace with peace of mind."

Seeing that Chu Yan didn't speak, Chao Luo said very thoughtfully: "I left a letter for the young master, he won't blame you."

Chu Yan looked complicated, and said lightly: "But he will be sad."

"He won't." Tears flashed quietly in Chao Luo's eyes, but there was a big smile on her face, and those ugly scars couldn't stop her flowery smile at this moment.

"I wrote in the letter that I have already left with Mr. Zhuang, and you are only responsible for taking him out of the palace."

Chu Yan didn't expect that she would even think about these things, and her heart gradually sank.

It seems that Chao Luo has already made up his mind, no matter how much he persuades him, it will be useless.

"Let's go." Standing behind them, Zhuang Yue suddenly said, "It's getting late."

Chao Luo nodded, and bowed to Chu Yan, "Then I'm leaving."

"Where are you going?" Chu Yan frowned.

Chao Luo pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but Zhuang Yue waved his sleeves, and the two of them disappeared in front of Chu Yan out of thin air like a light smoke blown away by the wind.

Chu Yan was slightly startled, and walked outside the door.

There is no strange atmosphere in the yard, the cold moonlight shines on the eaves of Daiqing, the wind blows the treetops rustling, and the shadows of the trees dance.

Zhuang Yue led Chaoluo to a high roof. The bustling street in the past was empty at the moment, and the surroundings were quiet. Occasionally, one or two chirping birds could be heard in the distant woods.

Chao Luoan sat quietly, her eyes reflecting the bright moon hanging above her head.

Zhuang Yue lay down lazily, pillowing his arms, and said quietly: "This is the last night."

"If you don't pass the mother Gu to me again, I won't be able to pass it."

Chao Luo shook his head and said seriously: "I won't live."

"That's my job."

"..." Zhuang Yue looked at the dark blue night sky, and said in an inexplicable way, "Feng Yu, do you want to survive?"

It was the first time he used this name to call Chaoluo, the words seemed to carry many layers of meaning, Chaoluo couldn't understand, her eyes were filled with confusion, she asked in puzzlement: "Why do you all call me Fengyu?"

Zhuang Yue turned his face sideways, looked at Chao Luo's puzzled eyes, and smiled lightly, "Since you are not Fengyu, why should you bear everything for her?"

Xiang Luo was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously said: "But..."

"No but." Zhuang Yue interrupted her, "Just tell me whether you want to live or not."

Zhao Luo stared at him blankly, and after a while, she slowly lowered her head, "Thinking about it."

"I still want to accompany the young master and watch him and Prince Chu get along well."

Zhuang Yue put his hand on the back of her hand, "Then live well."

"I did a trick for you."

Chao Luo lowered her head, and after a long moment of silence, she gently pulled her hand out of Zhuang Yue's palm.

"I think you misunderstood me." Chao Luo said calmly.

A pair of clear black eyes seemed to be dotted with broken stars, shining brightly in the dark night,

"I want to live as Chaoluo, not as Fengyu."

She stared blankly at the palace standing in the distance, which still looked majestic and majestic in the dark night.

After a long time, Chao Luo turned his head and smiled at the gloomy and unpredictable Zhuang Yue, "This is a good thing for me, when Feng Yu and Mother Gu die..."

"I... am the real Chaoluo."

Fu Shiyu didn't know when the torture would end.

All the screams, cries, struggles, etc. on his back seemed to form countless shackles winding up, and he was overwhelmed, exhausted and out of breath.

Even though Chu Yan guarded him vigilantly and wouldn't let him turn his head, he couldn't even see those too cruel scenes from the corner of his eye, but Fu Shiyu seemed to feel those countless red feet crawling across the ground and onto the ground. Every corner of the body, and then crazily drilled into the ears, nose, mouth and other places.

His stomach suddenly became a little acidic, and his internal organs seemed to be being eaten by those vicious red feet. The pain made Fu Shiyu's head buzzing, as if he was about to faint in Chu Yan's arms at any time.

Those people and ministers who were slowly recovering their sanity, when they saw the tragic and terrifying scene in the distance, couldn't bear it, and turned their faces away in horror.

at last……

The unbearable voice stopped.

Fu Shiyu's world also returned to peace.

"It's over?" His voice was hoarse and he could only make a breathy sound, his bloodless lips were full of blood holes from being bitten.

Chu Yan didn't know what he was thinking, and after a long time, he hummed softly.

Fu Shiyu pushed him away with empty eyes, and turned around precariously.

Afraid that he would fall to the ground, Chu Yan reached out to help him up, but he swung him away fiercely.

……

When Fu Shiyu looked at the motionless figure lying on the ground, it seemed as if a towering mountain was pressing down on his head, his eyes darkened, and he almost fell to the ground in embarrassment, but fortunately, Chu Yan hugged him quickly.

"..." Fu Shiyu pushed him away again, and staggered towards the figure on the ground alone.

There was no sign of Hong Baijiao in the surrounding area. The man's cloak and clothes were bitten to pieces, and his clothes were barely covering his body. There were blood-stained holes all over them.

Fu Shiyu stretched out his hands to take off his outer shirt, knelt down on his knees, carefully picked up the man's head, put it on his lap, and then gently put the outer shirt on her body, as if he was afraid of causing pain, he There are temptations and hesitation in the action, and when I continue to the next step, there will be a long hesitation in the middle.

"My lord..." the man shouted angrily.

She couldn't see, the pair of clear black pupils in the eye sockets disappeared, leaving only two empty blood holes, and the blood seeping from the ears soaked Fu Shiyu's white underwear.

"……is it you?"

Fu Shiyu clenched his teeth tightly, his throat was choked, he couldn't say a word, and big tears kept dripping down the man's face.

"Be patient, I'll take you to the clinic right away." He tried to make his voice sound calm, "If it can save you the first time, then it can also save you the second time."

"My lord..." Chao Luo wanted to speak.

Fu Shiyu quickly interrupted her, "Don't be afraid, Chaoluo, just hold on for a while, okay?"

He wanted to pick up Chao Luo from the ground, but the more flustered he was, the more mistakes he made. Just as he wanted to get up, his knees went numb, and he fell back down weakly.

"Are you all right, Chaoluo?"

Fu Shiyu sniffled, forced a smile and said, "Sorry, I didn't hold it steady just now."

He put his arms around Chao Luo's waist, held his breath, and was about to pick him up again, when a cold hand rested on his wrist. "

"My lord..." Chao Luo said weakly, "Don't bother."

"...I know I'm hopeless."

"How could it be?" Fu Shiyu quickly stopped him, and said with a pale smile, "I'm a miracle doctor, and I can save the dead."

Chao Luo pulled up the corners of his lips with difficulty, and said with a touch of complacency, "I know, you are the most powerful person in the world."

"Since you know, then stop talking and save some energy." Fu Shiyu pretended to be angry.

Chao Luo smiled, then suddenly raised his hand and reached into the front of his clothes, and took out a worn taupe purse from his chest.

"Young master, do you remember what this is?" She waved her hand in the air, as if she wanted to show it to Fu Shiyu.

But when Fu Shiyu saw that familiar purse, he felt a dull pain in his chest, and then a surge of hatred surged in his eyes.

He was just about to pull the purse over and throw it away, but Chao Luo said happily, "Young master gave it to me."

"..." Fu Shiyu's face froze.

There was a lot of joy in Chaoluo's words, "I like it very much."

Fu Shiyu had mixed feelings in his heart, and said lightly, "It's just as long as you like it."

Chao Luo fumbled for Fu Shiyu's hand, Fu Shiyu saw this and took the initiative to shake it.

Just when he didn't know what Chaoluo was going to do, she stuffed the purse into Fu Shiyu's hand, and asked with some hope.

"My lord, can you put it on for me?"

She didn't hear Fu Shiyu's voice, she thought he was unwilling, and she was inevitably disappointed, but she pretended to be okay and said: "I was confused, I am definitely not worthy of this earring with my current appearance."

"No." Fu Shiyu poured out the pair of jadeite and magnolia earrings in his purse, his eyes were cold, "These earrings are not good enough for you."

"Young master, don't make fun of me anymore."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Luo coughed heavily for a while, but her body seemed to be being crawled by tens of thousands of ants, every word seemed to use up all her strength.

Fu Shiyu didn't dare to talk to her anymore, he was holding the earrings, and just about to put them on for her, when he accidentally saw the pierced earlobe that looked new, he was startled, "When did you get it?"

Chao Luo guessed what he was asking, and said with a smile on his face, "Aunt Qiu made it for me before."

Fu Shiyu's eyes were sore again, he held back his tears, and quickly put the earrings on Chao Luo's ears.

Chao Luo tried his best to put on a calm smile, "Does it look good?"

Fu Shiyu clenched his fists and nodded heavily. Realizing that Chao Luo couldn't see him, he was about to speak when a voice came in from behind him.

"It's pretty." Chu Yan said with a serious expression while half kneeling on the ground.

As he spoke, the voices of the people in the distance also came one after another.

"It's beautiful! It's beautiful!"

"Little girl, you're pretty, your elder brother never cheats."

"Yes, yes, that young master is right, this earring is indeed not suitable for you."

"..."

At first, it was just one or two people's praise, and then all the people began to agree with each other.

A woman ran out stumbling, and when she saw Zhao Luo's terrifying face, she still couldn't hold back, a trace of fear leaked out of her eyes, but she still held on to her courage and came to Chao Luo's side.

"There is still a bracelet missing." She wiped the tears off her face, took off the jade bracelet in her hand, and put it on Zhao Luo's thin wrist with trembling hands.

"This is my dowry. When I got married, my mother said that the older generation held it and asked the master to consecrate it in the temple. If you wear it in the next life, you will surely have a good pregnancy."

Chao Luo touched the bracelet on her wrist. It was the first time she felt the kindness of outsiders. This feeling was very strange, but it was not annoying at all. There was even a hint of warmth in her chest.

"Thank you."

"It's all right, kid."

The woman covered her mouth, couldn't bear to look at Chao Luo anymore, and ran back into the crowd in tears.

With Chao Luo's face pressed against Fu Shiyu's chest, her hearing was already very weak, but for some reason, she could listen carefully to every word they said.

"Master." She was a little tired and wanted to have a good sleep.

Fu Shiyu seemed to have sensed something, his eyes were so dry that he couldn't even squeeze out tears, he stepped on the blood on Chaoluo's face, and hummed softly.

"In my next life, I will be Chaoluo."

"it is good."

"You will be my brother, okay?"

"it is good."

"Like this life, protect me."

"it is good."

"elder brother."

"……it is good."

Hearing Fu Shiyu's answer, Chao Luo smiled contentedly, and leaned into Fu Shiyu's arms, listening to the slow heartbeat in his chest, and fell into an endless dream with peace of mind.

"Chaoluo is asleep." Chu Yan accompanied him, and said slowly, "Let's go back home."

"..."

Fu Shiyu didn't seem to hear it, he still knelt with a dull expression, suddenly noticed a little wetness on his face, he raised his head, looked at the gray sky, and murmured something in a daze.

"……It's raining."

Sanhe Town

"Brother, hurry up! It will rain heavily later!" The little girl shouted back while holding the washed clothes.

The ugly man nodded silently, his legs and feet were a bit inconvenient, and he limped to keep up with her steps.

As soon as he returned to the backyard of the brothel, the man keenly sensed that a dangerous aura was gradually approaching.

He grabbed the little girl's hand and said hoarsely, "Go and hide in the house."

The little girl looked puzzled, but nodded obediently.

The man walked to the small building where he usually received customers, and saw two dead female corpses on the ground, they were prostitutes in the brothel.

Hearing footsteps upstairs, he quickly retreated to the backyard and sighed through the crack of the door.

I saw a dozen or so swearing bandits coming down from upstairs after looting a pile of gold, silver and jewels.

He turned around, wanting to take the little girl in the house away, but inadvertently, three bandits came to the hidden backyard. It was only a short time before the little girl and him were discovered.

The man's burnt face sank, and after thinking for a moment, he paused in his heart, took a deep look at the room with the closed door, turned around and climbed up the low wall, intending to leave alone.

boom--

The old wooden door was overwhelmed, and was kicked open hard.

The back of the man who was about to leave froze, and then he slowly closed his eyes, remembering the smart and beautiful eyes of the little girl, and finally fell down the city wall with a complicated expression.

He had lost his internal strength, and his legs and feet were inconvenient, and he was a little embarrassed to even get up.

"stop!"

Several bandits heard a voice behind them, looked back, and saw an ugly ghost standing behind them.
