Li Zhang

The busy year is finally over.When Li Zhang came out later, Yanfang saw that his face was still the same as usual, and she was completely relieved. Seeing that he seemed to like the new robe, she made a few nets for him overnight, and chose the new robe. Matching jade articles of several colors were put together with the clothes, ready for him to wear together in the New Year.

On New Year's Eve, due to his status, Li Zhang did not participate in the ancestor worship and reunion ceremony in the palace.The supply in the Phoenix Hall was no worse than that of the New Year's banquet. Li Zhang let everyone sit freely, and he said he was sleepy after eating a few things, and went back to his room to sleep.He has always been like this in the past few months, and everyone does not think it is strange, but the little palace people are happier and eat happily.

In the middle of the night, Lingjuan, who got up at night, heard some movement in Li Zhang's room, and asked outside the door, Li Zhang answered softly, Lingjuan did not doubt that he was there, and went back to sleep.

In the early morning of the new year, Qunfang and Lingjuan had packed everything up and did not see Li Zhang coming out. They waited for another moment in doubt, seeing that they would miss the time to greet the emperor and empress dowager, so they knocked on the door hesitantly, but He knocked on his painful hand and saw no movement. He was flustered immediately, and someone knocked open the door to enter. He saw Li Zhang lying stiffly with his eyes closed, wearing a clean old cotton robe, neatly combing his hair in a bun, frowning slightly, The expression was a little painful but very peaceful, and there was a dry black blood on the corner of the black lips.

"Young master—!"

The auspicious and festive first lunar new year was disturbed by the shrill cries in the Phoenix Hall.

When Sima Yi arrived, Jin Bai had already checked Li Zhang carefully, and shook his head palely at Sima Yi, who was full of frenzy, and said, "It's two kinds of herbal poisons that can counteract each other. I don't know... how he got it."

Sima Yi looked viciously at the kneeling man: "Didn't they poison you?"

Jin Bai shook his head again: "Erotic heart grass and brocade flowers are produced thousands of miles away, how can these ignorant palace people find them?"

Sima Yi was stunned: "What did you say? Corrosion Heart Grass... Jinhua?"

"Yes. How? The emperor knows?"

Sima Yi gritted his teeth: "Wang Xiang is dead. Where is the White Deer...Where is the White Deer? Did you come to the capital?"

"Bai Lu? She has been emotionally unstable since she came out of Yizhou, and was left by the minister to assist Bai Yi in the training center. She never left!"

"Then there are Ouyang Chong and Pei Junyang!"

"Your Majesty! No matter how he obtained the poison, Li Zhang will take it voluntarily. It is his last wish! No matter how unwilling the Emperor is to let go, he should know Li Zhang's intentions. Let him go with peace of mind!"

"No! I won't let him go! I won't believe that he is really dead! Go! Go to the imperial doctor! Post the imperial list! Whoever can save him, I will reward him with half of the country!"

"emperor!……"

"And you too! Don't think that if you hide Gu, you will hide it from the world! Gu Zi will find out what happened to him in the palace one by one! No one can escape!"

Jin Bai was speechless, seeing Sima Yi getting more and more crazy, he was also angry and hated, and couldn't help but burst out: "Why is the emperor still unwilling to admit who pushed Li Zhang to this point? Li Zhang, it is not easy to get to today! If there is a way, will he give up?! If you like a person, you can either keep him by your side or treat him well! Wei Guogong refused to stay back then, and today Li Zhangzhi is decisive, the emperor Don't you understand?"

Sima Yi's bulging momentum was punctured immediately, he staggered to the point of collapse, slumped his shoulders and cried helplessly.In the empty hall, irrelevant people have already been taken away, leaving only Sima Yi and Jin Bai, mourning Li Zhang's lifeless body.

"Gu knows, it was Gu himself who ruined everything. But why is he so stubborn! Gu can compensate him, spend his whole life to compensate him, why doesn't he give Gu this chance! Gu didn't want to force him..., Gu really , I didn’t want to force him to death!”

Sima Yi was in so much pain that he didn't know how to express his remorse while hugging Li Zhang, let alone what to expect from now on, his heart was throbbing in panic, unable to find a stable place to go.

He gently kissed Li Zhang's tangled brows, the skin under his lips was no longer warm, and when he looked down and saw the black lips, he couldn't breathe from crying again.

The more Jin Bai looked at it, the more sad he became, he raised his hand and touched Sima Yi's sleeping point, and took him away from the Phoenix Hall himself.

The peace and joy of the New Year was once again overshadowed by the ashes of death. Sima Yi walked through all the New Year's cutscenes in a daze, and was so dazed that he asked the ceremonial officer to raise his voice several times.Zhou's face was full of suspicion. It was not until later that he heard the news. After being shocked, he didn't understand Sima Yi's abnormality. It’s just an inexperienced one! Forget it! It’s better to die! Let people carry it out quickly, so as not to cause bad luck in the palace!”

Eunuch Pan took the order to do it, but was stopped by the guards outside the hall, and he bluntly said that the emperor would not allow anyone to approach, and that it would be treated as a funeral in three days.Eunuch Pan had no choice but to report it when he went back. Although Zhou was very angry, he had no choice but to let him.

Sima Yi stayed in the Phoenix Hall without eating or drinking for three days, and he didn't listen to anyone's persuasion.Because Jin Bai has a criminal record of sneak attack, Jin Bai is strictly forbidden to enter the palace.Jin Bai had no choice but to turn to Mu Yan for help.Mu Yan went in and felt sad when he saw Li Zhang who was no longer so stubborn as to make people angry.

He stretched out his hand slowly, but Sima Yi blocked him before he touched Li Zhang.

"Don't touch him!"

"emperor……"

"Gu doesn't believe that he is really dead! He...has hated Gu so much, how could...just die like this?"

"emperor!"

"He wanted to kill Gu! Mu Yan, you saw it with your own eyes! Why didn't he come? Why didn't he come?!"

"..."

"It was you who restricted his kung fu!...You untie it for him! Untie it for him! Let him kill Gu! Let him get up and kill Gu!"

Sima Yi seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw suddenly, grabbed Mu Yan's skirt, his red eyes shone brightly, it was so hot that it seemed to melt everything!

Seeing Sima Yi like this, Mu Yan was in great pain, and for a moment he deeply regretted the act of accepting disciples back then. ——If Li Zhang had died in the palace dungeon early, none of this would have happened!

He hugged Sima Yi like he was holding the indifferent and gloomy child back then, and begged in his ear: "Your Majesty, wake up! Li Zhang is dead, he is dead! You...don't do this." ..."

Sima Yi was immobilized by Mu Yan, and the fierceness of rushing around gradually calmed down in the confinement.He stared at Mu Yan in a daze, and Mu Yan said loudly again: "Li Zhang is dead! He is gone! Your Majesty... you still have Jiangshan, the queen and the little prince! You...you can't do this anymore down!"

Sima Yi stared blankly at Mu Yan, his voice was light like the wind passing through the room: "So what?"

Mu Yan blushed, and after a while, he said with little confidence: "Since Li Zhang is so unreasonable, why should the emperor keep thinking about it?"

Sima Yi laughed: "Heh! Hahaha! Yes! He... is really unreasonable. But..." He calmed down slowly, looked at Mu Yan and said coldly: " It was you who forced him to death together with Gu!"

Mu Yan withdrew his hand suddenly as if being burned.

Sima Yi couldn't keep it until the end of the third day.Excessively sad and refusing to eat, he fainted on the evening of the third day and was taken away from the Phoenix Hall by Mu Yan.

At night, in the empty Phoenix Palace, the wind blows in from the unclosed door, lifts the curtains in the room, flutters and falls, and with the sound of the wind in the hall, it looks even more desolate and ghostly in the darkness.

A black shadow fluttered down from the high wall, and suddenly flashed into the hall.After a while, another black shadow rushed in, also flashing into the hall.

"grown ups!"

"Bai Qi?"

Almost at the same time, the two shadows recognized each other.Bai Qi bowed back slightly, and Jin Bai took out the luminous pearl.

After checking Li Zhang carefully again, Jin Bai gave up desperately.Bai Qi stubbornly stood aside and refused to leave, while Jin Bai sat beside the bed with a sigh.

"Three days. No matter how good the fake death medicine is, it can only last three days. He...isn't..."

"No! Not yet!"

"Bai Qi..."

"He... survived like that, why..."

Jin Bai supported his forehead wearily: "It was me who killed him."

"grown ups?!"

"You go and find the master for me. I promised Li Zhang that I would...take him to Baoen Temple...the emperor cannot do without people. You go and ask my master to see him off..."

"My lord! Really... there is no turning point?"

"Yes! It's gone!"

Bai Qi stood in a daze for a while, then stomped his feet resignedly, and flew away.Jin Bai sat motionless with his forehead supported until the sky turned pale.

When Li Zhang was carried out, Imperial Physician Sun rushed over tremblingly, took the pulse carefully for the last time, and watched the stretcher walking away lonely.

The person who was always very quiet finally slowly turned into nothingness, and he can no longer be seen...

**************************************************

Baoen Temple.

Li Zhang, who had died for seven days, was still vivid.The whispers about him in the temple grew, and the uneasy atmosphere grew, culminating in the yelling of someone who had accidentally touched Li Zhang's body.

The man was so frightened that he could hardly speak, pointed at Li Zhang tremblingly, and said, "He...he...his body...soft...soft!"

Everyone backed away coaxingly, discussing in disbelief, and gradually the topic brought up the fox demon again.You boldly stepped forward to touch it again, and it was indeed soft and lifelike, with a faint warmth coming from the depths of the skin.

Baoen Temple exploded immediately.

The body, which was obviously stiff and cold when it was lifted, softened and warmed up after a few days. The rumored entanglement between Emperor Su and the fox demon made all this even more weird!

In the belief of protecting the common people, the monk of Baoen Temple carried Li Zhang onto the cremation pyre without waiting to inform Jin Bai after chanting sutras.When the torch was thrown in, a gust of wind blew by and the flames ignited instantly. The people on the top of the pyre seemed to move a bit, and the sharp-eyed person said something, and the crowd dispersed immediately, and no one dared to continue watching.

Suddenly, it rained heavily without warning, and the rain put out the fire, and two figures passed by.

Soon after the rain stopped, the fire started again and burned for two days and two nights, turning a back mountain into white ground and almost affecting the main body of the temple.

suburbs.

The courtyard of the deaf mother-in-law's house.

Bai Qi came back from the outside, carefully concealed his whereabouts, and quietly entered the house.

In the dark corner of the room, Li Zhang was lying on the bed without a sound. On the small charcoal stove in front of the window, white smoke was curling up from the medicine pot.

The door opened again, Zheng Yiyan came in holding a medicine bowl, saw Bai Qi, and nodded slightly.Bai Qi went over and lifted the quilt to one side, revealing the half of his body covered with wet cloth, gently opened it, looked at the half-dried medicinal paste, paused, turned sideways to let Zheng Yiyan pass.

Zheng Yiyan slowly peeled off the dried medicinal paste and put on a new one.The drowsy Li Zhang groaned unconsciously, and slowly opened his eyes.

The author has something to say:

After all, Mu Yan and Li Zhang haven't been together for a long time, and it's always worse than the relationship between him and Sima Yi, so it's normal for him to feel more sorry for Sima Yi.

In fact, it is also a kind of rebellious heart. I don’t think that everyone in the world will revolve around the protagonist, let alone the protagonist will be loved by everyone.Because people are always biased.

It's just that Mu Yan is like this, but it is really a scar in Li Zhang's heart that will never heal.

The real scrolling seems to be the right question here.However, for Li Zhang's part in the palace, his mentality is similar to that of the chapter of collision.And choosing to leave like this in the end is also a kind of death and rebirth.So, just continue as it is.
