For the emperor

One month after the chief culprit who intended to murder the prince was executed, General Zhenbei led five thousand elite soldiers, and the large army slowly marched towards the northwest amidst the cheers of the people.

Cang Tiansu sat in the carriage in the middle of the army, curled up in a corner, staring at the curtain of this luxurious carriage, without saying a word, in a daze.

"Eldest Prince, Eldest Prince!" Xiaosi knelt beside her, covering her face with tears, "Say something... say something..." She was really terrified.

Cang Tiansu, who was knocked unconscious a month ago, woke up, lying on the bed, staring at the magnificent bricks and tiles above the Zhaori Hall for a while, then turned over and sat up, got out of bed, and wanted to run out barefoot.

Yi Hao led people to guard the door, and when he saw him come out, he sighed.Without waiting for Yi Hao's instructions, the guards who had already received the order of Emperor Cang Jing stopped him.

Cang Tiansu couldn't help but subconsciously touched the calf of his left leg, but the knife Li Mi gave him was nowhere to be found.Finding the right moment, he pulled out the saber from the waist of a guard who was hugging him with his hand, and laid it across his neck, staring at Yi Hao silently with eyes wide open and tears streaming down his face.

Ever since he was a child, he had few words and was a bit inarticulate. At this moment, he opened his mouth, unable to speak, only full of bitterness.

The latter stared at his dark eyes for a while. After a long time, he finally sighed silently and waved his hand to signal the guards to make way.

Cang Tiansu pulled out his waist card, turned his back and watched him back step by step vigilantly, turned around after turning a corner, and ran towards the sky prison while maintaining the horizontal knife posture.

Cang Tian has always been extremely lazy and seldom goes out for activities. The skin on the soles of his feet is not much thicker than the skin on his palms. At this time, he was running barefoot on the gravel road. Yi Hao lowered his head, his eyes fell on the sporadic blood on the ground, and he sighed silently.

Li Mi was wearing a prison uniform and was rolling his eyes at the head of the guard who came to the door for interrogation three times a day. When he saw him coming in trembling, he waved his hand in a good mood: "Hello!"

Cang Tiansu dropped the knife, his eyes were red, he raised his hand to cover his mouth, then tore his hair with the other hand, forcing himself to look up at Li Mi.

"Don't cry, don't cry!" Seeing him like this, Li Mi secretly thought it was not good, and hurriedly raised her hand to express her surrender, "Silly boy, it will happen sooner or later, your father will not tolerate me long ago."

A woman who has seen his growth process with her own eyes and can guess at least five or six points about his thoughts, with Cang Jinglan's personality, she has been able to bear her until now, but she just wants to make use of it again.

Li Mi stood up, and embraced Cang Tiansu in his arms amidst the sound of Xisuo colliding when the chains shook.

"I'll be beheaded tomorrow," she laughed self-deprecatingly. The queen was afraid that something would happen if the time dragged on, so she forced the emperor, or rather, agreed with the emperor to make this day really urgent. , "Be good, be obedient, don't come here."

"I have long wanted to go away with no worries and peace of mind, and maybe I can return to the place where I came from in the first place. Don't come to the end, you still have to come and trouble me, understand?" Li Mi nodded at the sky Plain little nose.

She was really afraid that Cang Tiansu would do something. This child is no better than a gift from the heavens. He can speak out and cry when he encounters grievances. He keeps everything in his heart. Sooner or later, he will unbearable.

Cang Tiansu bit his tongue viciously, with a mouthful of blood in his mouth, staring at Li Mi's delicate side face, he really tried to force back the tears, but nodded silently.

Li Mi paused for a while, then lowered his head hesitantly: "Tian Su, I know he is not a good father, please forgive my selfishness, don't hate him, okay?"

When Cang Tiansu was still young, she began to subtly influence him. She knew it was wrong, but she still couldn't help but intentionally lead Cang Tiansu to the wrong path. She just didn't want the father and son to meet each other one day.

Li Mi felt very guilty. She traveled through thousands of years and came to this strange land, from the age of 20 in the prime of her life to the present year.

She dedicated the most precious twenty years of a woman's life to two men, but she always chose one of them to hurt.

Cang Tiansu swallowed the fishy saliva in his mouth, and grinned silently at Li Mi.His gums and teeth were stained with blood, and the smile he could barely squeeze looked a bit ferocious and resentful at this moment.

Li Mi laughed, then turned dark, and rolled his eyes at the chief guard who had been eavesdropping since just now: "Why are you listening, you don't understand!"

What the two of them just spoke was Chinese, a language completely different from that of the Promise Continent.

The captured palace guard gave a dry cough and turned his head to the side in embarrassment.

Cang Tiansu came out of the prison and slowly moved towards Zhaori Hall, the soles of his feet pierced by stones were bleeding all the way.Yi Hao walked towards him, without glancing at him from the corner of his eye, the two passed by like strangers.

Yi Hao's figure disappeared after turning a corner.Cang Tiansu squeezed the note that had just been stuffed in his hand, moved his Adam's apple lightly, made the most vulgar movement in his life, grinned his mouth, and spit a mouthful of bloody phlegm on the ground.

Before setting off, Yi Hao returned the knife confiscated by Emperor Cang Jing, and Cang Tiansu took it over, rubbing the intricate golden patterns on the pocket scabbard, dazed.He didn't listen to what Yi Hao said.

After Emperor Cang Jing raised wine to bid farewell to the departing soldiers, when he stopped by the carriage to look at him, Cang Tiansu still didn't lift his head, and traced the curve of the scabbard in his hand over and over again.

It wasn't until Emperor Cang Jing raised his hand, wanting to rub his hair, which felt good at first glance, as Li Mi used to do, that Cang Tiansu slowly raised his head, without saluting, only widening his eclipse-like eyes and not saying anything. Stare at him shyly.

Cang Tiansu's nostalgia, trust and admiration for his father can no longer be found in it.Cang Jinglan searched carefully, and finally only found the unspeakable and unconcealable hatred inside, which was deeply imprinted in his eyes as if carved by a knife.

The emperor of Cang Kingdom laughed and put his hand down.

Hate it, my boy.

Hate can get you to the top.

Cang Tiansu brought only two people with him to the northwest, one is the court lady Xiaosi, and the other is his chief guard Jing Tian.

The eldest prince of the Cang Kingdom who woke up seemed to have completely forgotten his speculation before he passed out, and ordered Jingtian to take care of the gold and silver, as if he had never doubted him.

After everything was arranged that night, Cang Tiansu came to the execution ground alone, kowtowed to the execution platform, from Xushi to Sishi the next day before Li Mi left the execution ground, and knelt for seven hours without moving.

In the early winter season, there are snowflakes in the sky. The first snow of this year, the earth is gradually covered with silver.Cang Tiansu raised his neck, let the snowflakes and icicles fall on his body, and then melted quickly. The snow water flowed in along the collar, and it was bitingly cold in the cold wind.

Cang Tiansu stared at Xingtai without saying a word, no one knew what was going on in his mind at this moment.

After returning from the execution ground, Cang Tiansu didn't say a word to anyone.

For the next month, he did nothing, huddled himself into a ball, and stared at any corner in a daze.Hall Zhaori was in a hurry like something, tried every means, but no one could pry his mouth open.

When the large army stopped to rest, Duan Yu lifted the curtain and came in, carefully looked at Cang Tiansu's face, saw that his eyes were still dull, and his eyes were frighteningly empty, so he couldn't help stamping his feet: "Yes, from Jingjing to the northwest, There's a total of three months' journey, and I don't believe that you can take it seriously and not say a word in these three months!"

He was really in a hurry.Cang Tiansu eats and drinks normally every day, no hunger strike, no insomnia, he eats when he is given food, drinks when he is given water, and sleeps in the carriage when the time comes In that state of mind now, Duan Yu becomes terrified every time he sees it.

Cang Tiansu never cried.Sometimes when he wakes up, his mouth and eye sockets are sore, and he bites his tongue in order to prevent tears from streaming down.

He behaved too normally when he ate, and he never spoke, and he swallowed blood into his stomach when there was blood in his mouth. People around him didn't know that his tongue had been festered and pus had been festered for more than half a month.The yellowish pus poured down the throat, and the tongue was swollen enough to fill half of the mouth, and it hurt terribly to move.

Only this kind of pain can barely pull him out of his muddled thoughts, so he muster up his energy and force back the liquid that has been swirling in his eye sockets for a long time.

Cang Tiansu almost fell in love with the pain he suffered while eating.He tried his best to move the swollen tongue, so that every wound on it was finely rubbing against the hard food, and the pain made the tip of his heart tremble.

Every time it hurts, the hatred in his heart will deepen.

He likes this feeling.

Cang Tiansu's half-human, half-ghost life lasted for three months.At the beginning of the third month after the big troop set off, he started to read while still silent.

Cang Tiansu brought many, many books from the palace.The three side carriages hanging behind his main carriage were full of books brought from the palace.

No one knew what Emperor Cang Jing was thinking, allowing his son, whom he obviously didn't like, to evacuate most of the out-of-print treasures in the Imperial Study Room.

Cang Tiansu seemed to be ignorant of the dangers of chewing more than he could chew, and could quickly flip through four or five books a day.

Unwilling to be lonely once, Duan Yu rubbed into the carriage from the outside, staring at Cang Tiansu holding on to the first sentence of the book in his hand, "There are many karmic fates, and now I am entrusted to my mother's womb, the five internal organs are born after a month, and the seven sevens and six essences are opened." After shivering for a while, I honestly jumped off and rode a horse to blow the cold wind.

Cang Tiansu's eyelashes trembled, and he glanced at the gap where Duan Yu raised the curtain, revealing the back of Jing Tian who was driving a carriage outside, tall and straight like a green pine.He curled the corner of his mouth almost imperceptibly.

Another month later, the carriage stopped firmly in front of a piece of military tents.Duan Yu casually bumped his fists with the soldiers coming and going, and waited patiently outside the carriage for a long time, but still did not wait for Cang Tiansu and his party to come down.

He really couldn't hold back, lifted the curtain and went in, and saw Cang Tiansu stretched his body for the first time in four months, standing barefoot on the seat of the carriage, slowly shaking his wrist.

In the past four months, Cang Tiansu seemed to have grown taller, and something different had settled between his brows and eyes. Different from the excessive loneliness and tranquility when the two first met, the whole person appeared pure and beautiful.Seeing Duan Yu coming in at this moment, he turned sideways and gave him a faint smile.

The eyebrows are picturesque, the skin is full of luster, and it is as beautiful as a crown jade.

Duan Yu almost subconsciously raised his hand to cover his nose, turned his head with a flushed face, and stared at the little soldier carrying luggage outside the car for a long time before turning his head back in embarrassment.

Cang Tiansu left behind Xiaosi and Jingtian who were pulling their hair and frantically sorting out the mess, and under the leadership of General Duan, he came to the military tent assigned to him first.

He bent down and gently touched the plain white quilt on the hard bed, the corners of his raised mouth froze, his eye sockets were astringent, and a slight pink glow appeared.

Duan Yu pretended not to see it, lowered his head and stared at his toes for a while, then looked up, and saw him still standing by the bed with red eyes in a daze, with a pain in his heart, he walked forward carefully: "My father said, sorry There's nothing worse than heartbreak—although I don't understand this stuff, it probably makes sense—if you can't help it, just cry out..."

Cang Tiansu came back to his senses, blinked his sore eyes, and smiled back at him: "I don't cry."

After a long time without making a sound, Cang Tiansu could almost feel the vibration of the vocal cords when he spoke, and the voice he made with great effort was still hoarse and ugly, as if his voice had been abolished.

Duan Yu laughed dryly, and didn't know what to say for a while, seeing that he looked a little tired, he quickly said that he still had things to deal with, and then retreated, leaving him a space to be alone.

Cang Tiansu threw himself onto the bed, spread his limbs, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

Crying is a form of catharsis, which can relieve stress and pain to a great extent.

Li Mi once seriously teased Cang Tiansu, who was only four years old and already showing an iceberg face, saying: "When a person is in extreme pain or grief, crying bitterly will often have a positive effect, and it can prevent the pain from getting deeper and deeper. A phenomenon of self-extraction." As he said, he poked his white, tender and chubby face with his fingers maliciously.

Tears can dilute pain, but also dilute hatred.Inevitably, big things become small and small things become small.Every time Cang Tiansu used his teeth to destroy his innocent tongue, he kept telling himself not to cry.

You have to fully feel the pain they gave you, and your hatred for them, and keep them in your heart, not a little bit less.

When the time is right, you have to pay it back thousands of times.

If possible, how I hope that the whole world can be buried with you.
