Chapter 24.Leaving

The next morning, Ye Ren, who went out to inquire about the news, finally returned to the inn. He had no time to rest for a while, so he went to Xuanyuan Chen's room and waited for him to come out.

Xuanyuanchen was sleeping in the room, and woke up when he heard the familiar footsteps at the door. He slowly opened his eyes, looked at Xiao Ziqing who was still sleeping soundly in his arms, stretched out his hand and touched his sleeping hole again, then got up and put on his clothes. Good clothes, go outside the door.

"My lord, there hasn't been any major events in the rivers and lakes recently, the only thing is that something happened in the court." Ye Ren lowered his head, and respectfully told the news he had inquired about truthfully.

"What's the matter?" Xuanyuan Chen glanced at him and asked in a deep voice.

"It is said... that the emperor was assassinated." Yeren paused and replied in a low voice.It stands to reason that the affairs of the imperial court have nothing to do with their martial arts people, but if the emperor is assassinated, it will be different. The safety of the emperor is related to the fate of a country.

Xuanyuan Chen slightly raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, turned his head and glanced inside, hummed lightly, and then returned to the room.When he got to the bedside, the person on the bed just woke up, he stretched his waist, with a lazy expression on his face, Xuanyuan Chen slightly curled his lips, sat on the edge of the bed and hugged the person on the bed into his arms.

Leaning in Xuanyuan Chen's warm and broad embrace, Xiao Ziqing felt very satisfied. Suddenly, he felt some discomfort in his abdomen, but he couldn't tell what it was like.

"What's the matter?" Xuanyuan Chen sensitively sensed his strangeness, and asked with his head down.

Xiao Ziqing raised his eyes to look at him, shook his head slightly, the abdominal discomfort was not very serious, and it disappeared after a while, so he didn't take it to heart.

After breakfast, Xiao Ziqing avoided Xuanyuanchen again, went to the woods outside Jinfeng Town, stood under the tree, looked at Ye Chen in front of him, and said softly: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Ye Chen looked up at him, and said, "Last night, there was a news in the palace that was blocked, saying that the emperor was seriously injured. Somehow, it reached the ears of the courtiers. Now the court is in chaos, and the courtiers have no leader."

Xiao Ziqing was stunned when he heard the words, he stood where he was, and asked in a low voice after a long time: "The emperor's injury...is it serious?" After speaking, he clenched his hands into fists, hoping to hear a negative answer, but Reluctantly seeing Ye Chen nodded slightly.

He took a step back slightly, hesitating in his heart.To him, Xuanyuan Chen was a very important person, a partner he didn't want to part with for the rest of his life, and Jun Yizhi was a very good elder brother, how could he turn a blind eye to his elder brother's injury?Besides, he is the emperor, and he is the prime minister, so he can't stay here willfully.

After a long silence, Xiao Ziqing smiled bitterly, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I will go back, you go first." After speaking, he immediately turned and left, fearing that if he stayed a little longer, he would regret it.

Back in the inn, Xiao Ziqing closed the door, leaned himself behind the door, and slowly sat down on the ground.Yes, he is the prime minister, this is the responsibility he must shoulder, no matter how painful it is, he must leave.

only……

Xiao Ziqing raised his head, with deep reluctance in his heart. He didn't want to tell Xuanyuan Chen his true identity before, just because he was afraid that he would reject his identity, but now, he had to say it.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ziqing got up and opened the door to go out. It would be best if Xuanyuanchen could understand him, but if he couldn't, he couldn't turn back, he had to go back to the palace.

Just as the door was being opened, Xuanyuan Chen's figure appeared outside the door and bumped into him. Xiao Ziqing was slightly taken aback, and said in a low voice, "You're here? It just so happens that I... have something to tell you."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Chen raised his eyebrows, followed him into the room, closed the door, then sat down at the table carelessly, and asked softly, "What do you want to say?"

Xiao Ziqing's hands hidden in his sleeves slowly clenched into fists. He stood still for a long time without speaking, and he didn't even dare to raise his head to look into the eyes of the person in front of him. After a while, his palms were covered with sweat.

Xuanyuanchen waited for a while, but he still didn't see him speaking, so he couldn't help but feel puzzled, and when he was about to ask, the person in front of him spoke.

"The emperor was assassinated, you know it?" Xiao Ziqing mustered up the courage to raise his head, met Xuanyuan Chen's gaze, and asked in a low voice.He knew what Xuanyuan Chen asked Ye Ren to investigate, but he didn't expose it.

"And then?" When he told the truth, Xuanyuan Chen didn't deny it, but nodded generously, admitting that he had done it, and then he continued.

"I..." Xiao Ziqing was gasping for breath, his chest heaving up and down, what he wanted to say came to his lips, but he couldn't say it. After a long time, he said softly, "I'm going to leave for a while."

Xuanyuan Chen was taken aback when he heard the words, and subconsciously asked, "Where are you going?"

Xiao Ziqing pursed his lips, closed his eyes again, the sweat seeping from his back wet his underwear, and it was very uncomfortable to stick to his body. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Xuanyuan Chen, didn't you always want to know about my Is my real identity? Now I will tell you personally, I... am a member of the imperial court."

Xuanyuanchen frowned slightly, even though he had already guessed that his identity should have something to do with the court, but when he heard him admit it, he still felt sad, so he asked in a deep voice: "What does this have to do with your leaving?" Relationship? What does the assassination of the emperor have to do with you? Are you an imperial doctor, and he is waiting for you to save him?"

Xiao Ziqing smiled wryly and shook his head lightly. If he was really just a little imperial doctor, then he would not be so hesitant as he is now. After a moment of silence, he said softly: "Xuanyuan Chen, if I say... I am Nan Prime Minister of Shao Kingdom, do you believe it?"

Xuanyuan Chen was startled when he heard the words, stared into his eyes and asked back: "What did you say?"

"I said, I am the prime minister, the emperor was assassinated, I have to go back," Xiao Ziqing smiled bitterly, and said in a low voice: "Xuanyuan Chen, I'm sorry..."

Xuanyuan Chen didn't speak, and it took a long time before he said softly: "Do you have to go?"

Xiao Ziqing hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly, he had to leave, it was his responsibility, he had to bear it.He originally wanted to get along with Xuanyuan Chen for a while before confessing to him, but it seemed that the heavens did not want him to do so.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Chen fell silent again. This time he didn't speak for a long time, so long that Xiao Ziqing couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at him. Two quarters of an hour later, he suddenly let out a light snort, with a cold smile on his lips. Looking at Xiao Ziqing in front of him, he said coldly: "If you want to go back, then never come back again."

Xiao Ziqing was shocked when he heard the words, and his face lost all color in an instant. He looked into his eyes in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice, "You...what did you say?"

"I said, if you want to leave me for that emperor, then never come back." Xuanyuan Chen repeated coldly, then got up and left without hesitation.

Xiao Ziqing stood where he was, his face was pale, his lower lip was bitten tightly, and it seemed that blood was slowly oozing out. He blinked, and then blinked again, only to realize that Xuanyuan Chen had really left, and told him that talk.

Xiao Ziqing returned to the bed and sat down in a daze.When he was with Xuanyuan Chen, he wanted to fight for himself once, but he didn't expect this dream to be shattered mercilessly after only a short time.

Thinking of this, his heart couldn't help being sore, even breathing shallowly felt pain, and he couldn't breathe. He sat on the edge of the bed, his hands tightly gripping the quilt, so strong that it almost tore the quilt.

Maybe he and Xuanyuan Chen shouldn't be together, he is the prime minister, and he is the leader of the demon sect, since ancient times, Bai Dao and the demon sect have not interfered with each other, let alone one of them is from the rivers and lakes, and he is from the court.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ziqing suddenly felt even more sad, he could not help but grab the clothes on his chest, and sat on the bed with his legs crossed.Perhaps this is God's will, on the day he decided to be with Xuanyuan Chen, he should have expected that today would happen, but he has been unwilling to think about it, unwilling to admit it.

Time passed slowly, and before you knew it, it was late at night, and Xuanyuan Chen hadn't come back. In the past, the two shared a room, but he didn't come back tonight.Xiao Ziqing was lying on the bed alone, unable to sleep all night.

The next morning, Xiao Ziqing deliberately slowed down his movements, hoping that Xuanyuan Chen would come to see him, but after waiting for a long time, he still did not come.

"My lord, it's time for us to set off." Ye Chen stood aside and couldn't help reminding.

"I see," as soon as he said, Xiao Ziqing's subordinates had no choice but to speed up their actions to pack up their own things. Suddenly, their fingertips touched something warm and moist. He picked it up and saw that it was a jade pendant from Xuanyuan Chen. , he was slightly taken aback, carefully put the jade pendant into his arms, turned his head and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

After all, he had to leave, and he still didn't wait for Xuanyuanchen to come. After leaving the inn, Xiao Ziqing reluctantly looked back at the place that carried his many memories, and then rode away.

At the same time, Xuanyuanchen was sitting in front of the table and chair in the room, with a jar of wine in front of him, he lowered his head, thinking about something until Yeren pushed the door open and came in.

"Master, Mr. Xiao... is gone." Ye Ren walked into the room, smelled the smell of alcohol, looked at the wine jars all over the floor, and wanted to know what happened last night.

Hearing the words, Xuanyuan Chen raised his eyes to look at him, a sneer gradually appeared on the corners of his lips, didn't he say he liked him?Didn't you say you want to be with him forever?It was all lies.

Thinking of this, Xuanyuanchen squeezed the cup in his hand with all his strength, and the shards pierced his palm. The bright red blood flowed down continuously, dyeing his clothes red. With a crisp sound, he pushed the wine jar down on the ground. Ground, broken into pieces of residue.

"Master! Your hand!" Seeing this, Ye Ren exclaimed, and was about to step forward but was stopped by him in a cold voice. He could only watch Xuanyuanchen suffer, but could do nothing.

"Get out!" Xuanyuan Chen let out a low growl, ignoring the pain in his hands, he lowered his hands and let the blood stain his clothes, the emptiness in his chest made him realize that the jade pendant he was carrying had already been given to that person.

Xuanyuan Chen slowly closed his eyes, clenched his bleeding hand into a fist, and remained silent for a long time.

At this time, Xiao Ziqing, who was on his way, suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He lowered his eyebrows and gradually clenched his fists. His face was calm, but his heart was filled with sadness.

Xuanyuan Chen, you really don't want to see me for the last time, you are really heartless and ungrateful.
