Teacher of the Emperor

"It must be in time."

It was snowing heavily outside the hall, and in a trance, I heard the voice of Xijing: "Husband and wife bow to each other—"

The sheng and flute play together, and the zither sings together.

Before Xijing could say the last sentence "sent to the bridal chamber", suddenly one of the crowd stood up and applauded. The ear-piercing applause passed through the heavy snow and reached my ears. I turned my head and saw Murong Xi standing there. .

Murong Xi smiled and said, "Mr. Cao, do you really want to marry your daughter to him? Are you not afraid of regretting it?"

Cao Gong took the case and said, "Murong Xi, when will it be your turn to make trouble for my daughter's wedding!"

Murong Xi sneered: "Teacher An can even marry a wife, I just want to ask, does Taifu An really like women?"

I held Cao Baixuan's hand without looking at her.Murong Xi said he would not let me go, and indeed he would not let me go.

Cao Gong said angrily: "Wang Heng, take your mad dog away!"

Wang Heng remained expressionless, sitting and drinking his wine.

Murong Xi slightly raised his eyebrows, pulled his long sleeves back, and walked up the hall: "Mr. An, you don't dare to admit what you have done, do you? I would like to ask, before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was enthroned, he was with you in the East Palace Eat and live together, what happened, do you want me to remind you?"

I was about to speak, but was interrupted by him: "Wait a minute, Taifu is not in a hurry, you naturally want to tell me whether there are witnesses or evidence for this matter, yes, after His Royal Highness is used by you, you will design Let him be corrupted to the point of stupidity, even if I ask about this matter, there will be no result, right?"

Cao Gong slapped the table hard: "Murong Xi, you don't want to spout blood!"

Over there, Bai Ru'an grabbed a handful of melon seeds and said to An'an, "Look, look, there's a good show coming."

An An twisted his flesh: "Do you have a conscience!"

Bai Ru'an was in pain: "What are you doing? Besides bullying your brother, what else would you do?"

During this time, I have been silent.

Murong Xi said: "An Yanzhi is just a scholar, otherwise Cao Gong thinks how he quickly won the favor of His Highness the Crown Prince? But Cao Gong didn't see how he treated him after using up the crown prince, so now, he married I will treat your daughter, and you, Cao Gong, after the matter is over."

Cao Gong said angrily: "You, get out of here immediately!"

Wang Heng stood up from the guests at this moment, and said: "You and I are relatives, don't be stubborn at this last moment!"

"What Aiqing said about being obsessed with obsession, can I also listen to it?" Suddenly a familiar voice came from afar, everyone was startled, and they all looked outside the door, only to see the emperor's guard of honor coming in a mighty manner, a The young man in a bright yellow robe stepped across the crowd calmly, walked towards the hall, and smiled at Murong Xi: "Ai Qing is talking about my affairs?"

After these words were uttered, the heavy snow floating in the air seemed to have stopped, and even the wind could not be felt at all. No one in the shocked crowd spoke, including Wang Heng, including Murong Xi who had just been eloquent.

Only Cao Gong was still muttering: "You... aren't you stupid..."

Yulian smiled faintly, and looked at Cao Gong with sharp eyes: "I can't hear what Cao Aiqing said."

Mr. Cao took a step back, kneeling on the ground with a limp knee: "My minister is dead, and I will see my emperor!"

Everyone also seemed to wake up, knelt down together, and shouted in harmony: "Long live my emperor!"

That voice echoed in the snowy city of Luoyang. It was a voice that the imperial city had not seen for a long time.However, the kneeling crowd naturally did not include Wang Heng and Murong Xi.

Yu Lian narrowed his long and narrow eyes slightly, and before he could speak, he saw several people behind Wang Heng suddenly draw their swords to protect him, and the entire An Mansion was instantly wrapped up by layers of guards.

Wang Heng stepped back among those people, looked at Yu Lian, and said, "I thought you were dead, but I didn't expect you to appear here alive."

Yu Lian was not surprised, let alone angry, but said indifferently: "It's a pity that Prime Minister Wang just wanted to buy people's hearts and failed."

Wang Heng looked around, yes, there is one person missing here.

Zhong Lin.

Wang Heng withdrew under the protection of the guards, Yu Lian didn't speak, no one dared to stop him.After the people left, he turned to me and said: "Teacher, the imperial city has fallen, you and I are now under siege." Then he looked down at everyone in the hall: "After today, I may not be the emperor. Anyone who wants to defect to the rebels, I will never stop."

Then, a cruel smile curled up on his lips: "Shoot to kill."

On November [-]rd of the first year of Chongli, Luoyang, the capital of the emperor, was under heavy snowfall. Grand Tutor An Yanzhi got married, and the rebel Wang Heng raised his troops. Luoyang fell overnight.

Outside the imperial city, there are [-] Chen soldiers.

The An Mansion is not big, but all the important officials of the court are sitting here, as long as they are not Wang Heng's confidantes, they are all trapped here.The imperial guards surrounded Anfu with three floors inside and three floors outside.

The people who were immersed in joy just now were shocked by this sudden change, and many people sat in the snowy lobby without feeling the cold.

Mr. Cao finally turned his eyes to look at me and asked, "You knew about today."

At this moment, I let go of Cao Baixuan's hand, stretched out my hand to take off her hijab, looked into her eyes and said, "That's right, I married Bai Xuan because of the Northwest Army soldier amulet in Cao Gong's hand."

Cao Baixuan was hurt by this sentence, she took a step back and avoided my eyes, tears welling up.Cao Gong threw the teacup in his hand on the ground viciously: "An Yanzhi!"

I said: "As long as Mr. Cao is willing to trust me and give me the military talisman of the Northwest Army, I can guarantee that after the rebels are eliminated, the investigation of the Cao family's embezzlement of ink will be overturned. Not only will the name of the Cao family be restored, but also the prosperity and wealth of the Cao family will be guaranteed for a lifetime." .”

Cao Gong looked at me coldly: "An Yanzhi, why should I trust you if you do such a thing!"

I sighed: "I am the one who is sorry for Duke Cao, and I have no right to ask Duke Cao to give me a military talisman, but—"

Yu continued: "But Mr. Cao will not give it to me. Now the Cao family has long been tied to the same boat as grasshoppers. If we fail, Mr. Cao will go to hell together. If I lose, Mr. Cao don't want to Self-preservation."

After finishing speaking, he turned to me and asked, "What does the Tai Tuo mean?"

Between words, every sentence is pressing.I just pretended not to hear what he meant, Yulian, oh Yulian, why do you force me to admit that you are the king and I am the minister.

Whether you or I are monarchs, ministers or masters and apprentices, it will not be more than a few days.

I knelt down and bowed my head to him: "I dare not speculate on Shangyi."

Yu Lian leaned over to help me, and I said, "I'm terrified. I offended His Majesty a lot before, so I dare not stand up." My teacher, not to mention today is the grand master's day, so I can't kneel down."

Cao Gong looked at Yulian for a long time, and sighed: "You are far superior to your father. Regardless of ambition or courage, but I think I am smart, but I think you are in the hands of Taifu An from the beginning to the end. I was wrong." After finishing speaking, he took out the soldier talisman, knelt down on one knee, and held it up with both hands: "Minister, obey the order!"

In the back hall, only the two of us are left.Yu Lian's yellow robe was bright, shining brightly in the dark room.He personally poured a cup of tea for me: "Shao Fu must be thirsty?"

I glanced at the tea he brought over, bowed my head and said: "The emperor is the Ninth Five-Year King, I dare not drink this tea."

The expression in Yulian's eyes changed, his tone turned cold, and even his title changed instantly: "Then the Taifu won't drink the tea I served?"

This is clearly forced.

I took the teacup and drank it down: "Is the emperor satisfied?"

Yu Lian looked at me with a half-smile: "I thought the Tai Tuo would be surprised when he saw me today. I didn't expect the Tai Tuo to be so calm, and I felt bored instead."

I said: "Why are you surprised? The cat in my arms has turned into a tiger? As long as you don't bite me, it has nothing to do with me. Yu Lian, this is your country. I, An Yanzhi, never wanted to turn it into a tiger. This country is taken away."

He looked at me with his hands behind his back, his expression full of arrogance.

I sighed: "I once asked you, do you believe in Shaofu? At that time, you said yes, and I thought that I, An Yanzhi, finally got someone who would believe in me. Unfortunately, it has become a joke in a blink of an eye. It is ridiculous to trust this person." Things, maybe there is no such thing in the world?"

Yu Lian took a step closer and asked, "I just want to know that the Northwest Army is far away in the sky, why should I come to an emergency? Is the Tai Tuo putting his hope in the Northwest, and is he ignoring my safety at all?"

After he said a few words, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart and mouth. I thought the thing had woken up. I was about to answer, but I was dizzy. I managed to stabilize my mind and said, "I asked Mr. Cao for the Northwest Soldiers Talisman. It's just a guarantee. There is no chaos in the northwest at this time, and if the Kingdom of Shu takes advantage of the situation and enters, we can guarantee the stability of the frontier. As for Wang Heng, within seven days, I will definitely return your country."

Yu Lian looked at me coldly: "How to pay it back, how to pay it back. Taifu, you owe me more than Jiangshan."

At this moment, Bai Ru'an knocked on the door: "Yanzhi, Wang Heng invites you to the banquet."

Yulian glanced at him and said, "Get lost."

Bai Ru'an shrugged his shoulders, "I will leave."

Yu Lian stopped there, not letting me go at all.I had no choice but to say to him: "Your Majesty, I must go to this Hongmen Banquet. I thought that I would not be able to say goodbye to Your Majesty before I left, but today is a coincidence."

He still stood there, looking down at me from above: "Teacher, you have been lying to me to this day."

I looked up at him: "I didn't lie to you, Yu Lian, I never lied to you. I did all this, even if it was to avenge the destruction of my family, it was also because I was your young master. I hope you can Sitting in charge of this country—"

I was dizzy for a while, and I was almost unable to stand still. He grabbed me and almost clamped me in his arms: "Young Fu, you still refuse to tell me the truth!"

The world was spinning, I couldn't see everything in front of me clearly, so I had to look back at him with difficulty: "You...you actually poisoned me..."

I can no longer hear Yu Lian's voice clearly, and I don't know what he said at the end. The world has returned to darkness, and I have fallen into a deep dream.

Everything seemed to be back to the beginning, the young man smiled at me in the misty rain in Luoyang, and looked across the street from me.

I seem to hear him calling me softly, Shao Fu.

barracks.

The fire was burning in the tent, and the heat was escaping, melting a circle of snow outside the tent.

Wang Heng suddenly overturned the case, the documents on the case spilled all over the floor, the table rolled over on the ground, and the water glass that was originally placed on the table was smashed to pieces, Wang Heng's voice was extremely angry, It's hard to tell whether you're actually laughing or scolding: "You're still speaking for that An Yanzhi! Chen Yi, Chen Yi, can't you see what kind of person he is with ulterior motives? The crown prince pretended to be crazy and ascended the throne, and made a mess of our calculations, and now he has colluded with Duke Cao, my whole ten years of hard work have been in vain!"

Wang Chenyi's face was very calm: "Yanzhi has ulterior motives, isn't his father intending to usurp the throne? Comparing the two, it's hard to tell the difference."

Wang Heng was almost laughing angrily: "Then why am I the one who always makes concessions? Why is it always me who can't hurt him? Can't you see that he wants to die for his father! You protect him everywhere! He, what about me, I am your father! Will you be satisfied when An Yanzhi chops off your father's head with a knife? Isn't it!"

Wang Chenyi looked at his father, with mixed feelings in his heart: "Father, he used to be An Yanzhi, the An Yanzhi who traveled all over the capital in bright clothes and angry horses, but now, he has been destroyed by you. The Yanzhi in my heart In short, it turned out to be an eagle soaring above the nine heavens. You have already destroyed his memory and cut off his wings. Isn’t that enough? I’ve been thinking about it since I was a boy, and I hope to give him a world to let him fly , let him run, but now he's—"

Wang Heng yelled angrily: "Enough! I keep saying that An Yanzhi, An Yanzhi, yes, I just want him to die! If he doesn't die, I won't be able to take this position! You are nothing! I have never understood, what did I do in my previous life?" What a crime to give birth to a son like you!"

There was silence in the tent for a long time, Wang Heng said: "Now we have a good chance of winning, I will hold a banquet, and you go invite An Yanzhi to the banquet."

This was said to Chen Qiyue.

Chen Qiyue looked at the stalemate father and son, touched his nose, and coughed lightly: "Teacher, the students think it's inappropriate. Even if we really can go to Luoyang City at any time, there is no need to invite that An Yanzhi, it's broken." In the imperial city, he still dies, this Hongmen Banquet is unlucky, forget it."

Everyone in Luoyang city knew that Murong Xi and Chen Qiyue were rivals.Therefore, if Murong Xi said one thing, Chen Qiyue must say another thing, if Chen Qiyue said yes, Murong Xi would definitely object.

So at this moment, Murong Xi sneered and said, "How is that unlucky? At the beginning, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, invited Liu Bang, and it was a woman's benevolence to lose the Hongmen banquet. Our prime minister invites An Yanzhi now to let the young master take a good look at it. Who is it. They are trapped beasts now, so they can’t come if they don’t come.”

Chen Qiyue muttered beside him: "What a fart, I'll let it go if I die to avoid long nights and dreams."

Wang Heng sat down in the tent and stared at his son: "Have a banquet!"

At noon, when the snow stopped, An Yanzhi and his wife Cao Baixuan went to the banquet, both of them went alone, they did not bring any soldiers with them.

Wang Heng grabbed his son's head and said, "You can see that the one standing next to him is the wife he is marrying, and you, you are his son who killed his father and enemy, and you can't get rid of it even if you die."

Wang Chenyi gritted her teeth and remained silent.

Under the bright sun, there was snow reflecting the sunlight. On the road where An Yan came, a path was stepped on.

Both of them were dressed in red when they were newly married, and they were particularly conspicuous on the snow-white ground.

Sit down and serve wine.Cao Baixuan sat beside An Yanzhi, slightly nervous.An Yanzhi reached out to hold her hand, and said softly, "Don't be afraid."

Wang Heng and Chen Qiyue sat facing east, An Yanzhi and his wife sat facing north, and Wang Chenyi sat facing south, facing him and his wife.This situation is no different from the Hongmen Banquet thousands of years ago.

Wang Heng got straight to the point and said: "Since Mrs. An is here, I won't say much. I never thought of killing the king and becoming the king. Otherwise, people in this world will always think that I am too cruel and refuse to surrender. What I think , if Qin Yulian is willing to negotiate peace with me, then I will make him a frontier king to do it, and since he has a fief, he will not die in the chaos."

An Yanzhi remained silent, Cao Baixuan flinched a little, he stretched out his arms to embrace Cao Baixuan, and smiled slightly.

Seeing this, Wang Heng raised his eyebrows slightly: "However, it is not without conditions. If you kill yourself in the army, I will not send troops to attack the palace. This way, your good student can also be preserved. What do you think?"

An Yanzhi remained silent.

After a while, he let go of Cao Baixuan's hand, stretched out that hand, spread it upwards, looked at Wang Heng, and said only one word: "Sword."

Sitting on the seat, Chen Qiyue's face changed slightly.

Wang Heng smiled and said, "Give him the sword."

The guard beside An Yanzhi pulled out his sword and handed it to An Yanzhi.An Yanzhi stared at the sword for a moment, then stood up suddenly, approaching Wang Heng sitting on the seat!

Although Wang Heng was taken aback, the guards around him all brought swords and stopped An Yanzhi in time. The swords danced wildly for a while, and it was difficult to distinguish. Chen Qiyue was a general, and he also drew his sword, but it didn't involve any wounds. Note, unable to move, Wang Heng remembered his injury before, so he couldn't force him, but those guards were obviously not An Yanzhi's opponent, he looked at his son who was in a dilemma, and shouted: "Chen Yi, I will support you for 28 Years, and now he wants to kill me, and today one of us is doomed to die and the other to live, who are you saving!"

Wang Chenyi pressed his sword and was ready to strike, but he still didn't know what to do.

Wang Heng said sharply: "Don't you want to watch your father die under this knife today! Don't you know that his relationship with you is nothing more than using your hand to restrain me, nothing more than using it! If he really treats you How can you draw your sword at this time! Look clearly! Look clearly! The bride on that seat is his wife!"

In an instant, An Yanzhi's sword was approaching Wang Heng's throat, Wang Chenyi gritted his teeth, pulled out the sword, and pierced the opponent's heart.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Qiyue, who was unable to move at first, suddenly jumped up, and pushed Murong Xi, who was watching obsessively, under An Yan's sword!

A sword pierces the heart.

Murong Xi was hit by a sword in his heart, and he didn't even have time to speak. At the same time, the sword in Wang Chenyi's hand had pierced An Yan's heart and lungs.

The heavy snow that had finally stopped outside the tent began to fall again, and the originally clear sky turned dark again.

Wang Heng heaved a sigh of relief, but Murong Xi couldn't be saved anymore. Although he felt pain in his heart, he was glad that his son chose him at the last moment.At this time, Cao Baixuan, who was already frightened and dumbfounded while sitting by the desk, burst into tears, crying, "Husband!"

She stumbled and ran to An Yan's side, snatching Wang Chenyi's sword like a slash on the neck, but she was held tightly by Wang Chenyi.

Wang Hengdao: "You are right, she cannot die, she is the bargaining chip of the Northwest Soldiers."

Cao Baixuan screamed, "Let go of me! Don't you hate me? What's the point of letting me live here after you killed my husband!"

"Wake up!" Wang Chenyi said suddenly, her tone extremely ironic: "You have never been a wife in his eyes, you are the daughter of the Cao family, and his military amulet in the northwest! Why did he marry you? No one compares to you Know yourself better!"

Wang Chenyi's words were mocking, but he didn't know if he was mocking Cao Baixuan or himself.

Cao Baixuan collapsed on the ground, crying: "I don't care... I just know that he was the one who laughed at me by the lake that day, he would laugh at me with those frivolous words, and he would climb up my window and give me back my rabbit people..."

In the military tent, she cried and laughed, and sang to herself: "The lotus picker sings the lotus picker's poems. Luopu is like a fairy, if he is stronger than the lotus, those children are sentimental and afraid of romantic affairs. Light makeup and heavy makeup, Frowning and smiling lightly, the end is better than Xi Shi..."

All the people present, no one knew what she was singing, and the snow outside the tent was still flying, probably the lotus flowers had all withered long ago.

Although Wang Heng lost a general, he finally forced his son to kill his old enemy. He was in a good mood and said to the guard next to him, "Undo his clothes and let me see that poisonous insect."

The guard took the order and unbuttoned the clothes on An Yanzhi's chest. Under the light of the fire, his fair skin was reflected, but his chest was empty, nothing at all.

Wang Heng frowned: "This kid actually cheated me by using the milk I gave him, Chen Yi, you can see clearly that the eggs I forced him to drink didn't hatch at all! It wasn't me who hurt him, but him. kill me!"

.

three days ago.

Yu Lian was sitting in the house alone, it was cold and snowing heavily outside.

The incense on the table upset him, so he turned the incense burner over.

The person he was waiting for hadn't arrived yet.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, he finally heard the footsteps of someone outside the door. He turned around and saw Yun Xijing walking in. He knelt down: "Caomin, pay homage to the emperor."

Yu Lian finally calmed down and said with a long breath, "Get up."

Yun Xijing knelt and did not move.

Yulian looked at the people on the ground for a while, and said, "You raise your head up."

Yun Xijing obeyed and raised his head.Yu Lian said: "Let me ask you, do you only obey the orders of An Yan, or a member of my Da Chao?"

Yun Xijing said: "The emperor has an order, and I dare not disobey."

Yulian shouted coldly: "Then I told you to stand up, why are you kneeling on the ground and not moving!"

Yun Xijing stood up as he said, and said, "The grassroots are guilty."

Yu Lian slightly raised his eyebrows: "What's the crime?"

Yun Xijing's voice was still calm: "Stealing what the emperor wants, grassroots are not guilty, what is it?"

Yu Lian sighed: "Mr. Yun, I'm not blind, how could I fail to see your position in his heart. You forced yourself to be worthless that day because you saw that I have feelings for him, and you are afraid that I will be in love with him in the future. Make it difficult for him; he refuses, because he wants to give his sweetheart a proper status, so that you will not live in contempt in the eyes of the world, but you two are for each other, in the end, I am redundant."

Yun Xijing still bowed his head: "Xijing dare not."

Yu Lian said: "I stopped him this time and didn't let him go. It was just a partiality. Since one person is doomed to die, then whether he hates me or despises me, I only hope that person is not him. So , I can only feel sorry for you."

Then, he said: "Because he has planned for a whole ten years, and only you know about it."

39 chapter

When I woke up, my headache was still there, and Yu hurried over to help me.At that time, I was still in a daze, and for a moment, I felt that he was still the child in the East Palace, with my hand in his mouth, pretending to be silly and showing off, acting like a baby to please others.

However, when he saw his yellow robe, he suddenly felt dazzling and alienated.

I got dry mouth, pushed him away, staggered out of bed and poured water.He rushed over from behind me, poured me a glass of water and handed it to me, stared at me for a while, I had to drink it.

I supported my still aching head: "Wang Heng also invited me to the banquet. This is a very important part, and I am indispensable. Please help me find Yun Xijing, Your Majesty. I have something to say to him."

Yu Lian stood there without moving. After a while, he passed and helped me sit down, and said, "Young Fu, the assassination failed, Wang Heng is not dead."

I just woke up from the effect of the medicine, and I didn't understand what he meant, but I just said to myself: "It's okay, I didn't intend to kill Wang Heng—" I paused, then turned my head and stared at him intently. He: "I don't know how long you have been in a coma, if I don't go, who will assassinate me!"

Yu Lian looked at me with a trace of injury in his eyes, but he still said: "Young Fu, you just woke up, don't be cold..." He said and put on my clothes for me.

I grabbed his bright yellow collar, regardless of whether it was wrong or not: "I ask you who is going to assassinate you!"

He said gently, "Young Fu is thirsty? Would you like some more water?"

I gritted my teeth: "I asked you who went there!"

He suddenly pushed me away, and said in a cold voice: "Yun Xijing, I forced him to go, is Young Fu satisfied?"

I was shocked and almost couldn't stand still: "Then where is he now?"

Yu Lian suddenly raised the corners of his lips, and gave me a cruel smile: "He died in Wang Heng's tent, with a sword piercing his heart."

I took a few steps back in astonishment, I couldn't believe it, Xijing is dead?

How could Xijing die!

The person who died should be me!

Seeing how haggard I looked, Yu Lian said softly, "Young Fu, I know I shouldn't make my own claims, but if there is really someone who has to die, I only hope that person is not Shao Fu..."

I sternly said: "What do you know! I, An Yanzhi, are dying, but he is in the prime of his life in Yunxijing, even without me today, ten years later, he will have a full house of children and grandchildren, and he can spend his old age peacefully—— Your Majesty , Your Majesty! How did Xijing offend you? You won’t be reconciled if you don’t force him to death!”

There was a trace of sadness in Yulian's eyes, but he said in a hoarse voice: "As far as I am concerned, it doesn't matter how many Yunxijings there are in this world and how many times they die, but I only have one Shaofu!"

I locked myself in the room and refused to see anyone, including Yu Lian.He knocked on the door several times, but I pretended not to hear him.It's fine if Xijing is dead, at least I'll be with him on the day I leave.

Things have come to this point, it is beyond my control.

That's all, that's all.Now the lie has come true, I can accompany him to Guangxi to see those hometowns, this time, I will carry him.

Yu Lian ordered someone to remove the door, but he still came in after all.As expected of my student, he taught him nothing back to me.

He sat down beside me and asked me softly: "Young Fu, do you hate me if I do this?"

I sighed, I was not as impulsive as I was then.I said: "When I was under Zhong Xiang's school in the past, he told me that no matter what mistakes I made, I was his student and he would forgive me. But after all, Shaofu is not more generous than Zhong Xiang, Yu Lian, you You are Shao Fu's student, so Shao Fu will hate you so much? It's just that in the future, I won't be able to face you again."

Yu Lian lost his mind, and said, "Young Fu, you shouldn't have lied to me."

I don't care about anything now, and I don't bother to ask him how I lied to him, but seeing that he was so upset, I still asked: "How did I ever lie to you? Today's Yu Lian, Shao Fu didn't expect it, it's really amazing .”

He has learned all about killing with a knife, coercion and temptation.

What else do I have to say?

Yulian's eyes flickered for something, and he turned his head away: "Then I dare to ask Shao Fu, what are those?" He waved his hand, and everyone brought in several boxes, which were my luggage.I originally thought that if I was lucky enough to escape with a knife, I would go to Guangxi with Yun Xijing in the end, but what a pity, what a pity.

I said, "Baggage."

Yu Lian suddenly laughed, with tears in his eyes: "I thought it was Shao Fu who lied to me, but I didn't expect that I didn't have the ability to let Shao Fu deceive me! Dare Shao Fu never remembered that he promised me before, No matter what, he will not leave Yulian, Shaofu actually said these two words so lightly!"

I was stunned, and suddenly remembered that when he was poisoned that day, I hugged him to comfort him, saying that the young master would not leave, I thought it was just nonsense he was talking in a coma, but I never thought that he took it seriously.

Yu Lian often joked with me, and in the end, sometimes I couldn't tell what he said was true, what was false, and what was the truth he said through jokes.

I let out a long sigh: "Young Fu, I'm sorry."

He threw those things in front of me and walked away.

I looked at his thin back and said softly: "Your Majesty, walk slowly." The back seemed to shake a bit, and he walked faster, leaving the room in a mess.

At night, the sky was getting dark, the wind was howling outside the window, and it was pitch black. Someone came to my door and hesitated for a long time without knocking on the door.

I recognized someone by the sound of footsteps.

It's Zhong Lin.

I said, "Since Master is here, why didn't you come in?"

The man opened the door in response, and under the light, he looked even more haggard. He was still the same noble and lonely man in white clothes. I don't understand, why didn't you tell me?"

Seeing that I was silent, Zhong Lin sat down beside me and played a game of chess, "Do you still remember this?"

I hummed softly: "Knock the chess pieces and drop the lanterns. Unfortunately, I have been too busy. I don't have the time to wait for others or play chess with others."

Zhong Lin played chess and said with a smile: "Back then, Bai Shaojing and I taught you literature, and taught you martial arts. We both felt that it was a blessing in our life to accept you as an apprentice, and we devoted all our efforts to teach you. I treat you absolutely. It's not necessary for him to treat you the same. It's just that I still don't understand why you asked Bai Shaojing to help you, but kept trying to hide it from me."

Then he sent me his hand: "It's your turn."

I didn't make a decision, and after a long while, I bit my lips and said: "Master is a gentleman, and the students are acting like villains. I am afraid that they will dirty the eyes of the master. Now the students are as cunning, sinister and vicious as Wang Heng. If it is spread, it will dirty the master's eyes." Clear your name."

Zhong Lin was taken aback.

I bowed my head and said: "Student, in order to avenge himself, he disregarded the common people in the world. When I was young, the way of the saint taught by my master was completely violated by me. How can I pull my master into this muddy water again? "

Zhong Lin shook his head: "I remember that you often made mistakes when you were young. I told you at that time that no matter what mistakes you made, you are still my student. You will always be my teacher and I will never blame you." Then he snorted softly. One voice: "Except for always treating me as a teacher as an outsider!"

I bit my lip and said, "I married Cao Gong's daughter for his Northwest Soldiers Talisman."

Zhong Lin smiled and said, "Then treat her well for the rest of your life."

I looked up at him: "It's too late."

Zhong Lin was taken aback: "What?"

I turned my face away, and said again: "In order to separate Cao Gong and Wang Heng, I colluded with bandits three years ago and intercepted the disaster relief money from the court, and dumped all of it into the Yellow River. Tens of millions of innocent people were affected, and they starved to death due to lack of relief money and food. An Yanzhi, who did these things, was ruthless and cruel, even worse than a villain. He is not worthy of being your student. "

I threw the chess piece that I had been pinching for a long time back into the chess box: "So today, I am still not your student. If Master is in trouble, don't even recognize me."

I was afraid that he would scold me, I was afraid that he would blame me, so at this moment, I couldn't help but want to leave, so as not to look at Zhong Lin's disappointed face, but I didn't expect him to stand up, walk over and embrace me in his arms :"Do not blame you."

I was taken aback for a moment, his embrace was warm, and I subconsciously didn't break away.

Zhong Lin said: "It's all because of my incompetence. If I had been determined to bring down Wang Heng earlier, I wouldn't have caused chaos in the world and the decline of the royal family."

I burst into tears suddenly, crying like an idiot, I kept talking to him incoherently, I said I just hate, I hate Wang Heng for ruining my family, I hate him for killing my parents, I hate him for making me lose everything Suo Cheng hides in the deep mountains of Guangxi every day, I hate him for killing Xijing...

But me, because of my own selfishness, I have caused countless people to be displaced and their families to be destroyed. How can I be better than him?

At this time, there was a burst of fire outside the window, and there was a loud noise. I ran to the door and saw that the whole Luoyang seemed to be on fire. There was the sound of war horses neighing on the street, and soldiers on horseback held up torches to illuminate Luoyang in the dark night. It's like daytime!
