It turns out that I too have been robbed.

Qi Yunyao was used to lawlessness in the palace back then, so of course he was not afraid of Qi Baili.

So even now he knows that Qi Baili is the one who controls his own life and death.If he makes Qi Baili unhappy, the other party only needs to say a word, and he will disappear in this world... But Qi Yunyao, who was born into a royal family and is full of arrogance, still does not respect Qi Baili like everyone else .

However, at this moment, upon hearing what the other party said, Qi Yunyao was instinctively terrified.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Qi Baili silently glanced at those kneeling on the ground again.

In the impression of those eunuchs and maids, Qi Baili seldom smiled since he succeeded to the throne, or... since that person left.But at this moment, he actually smiled at the people below, and then said softly: "It seems that our Seventh Highness doesn't know where Ru Zhou is now, so why don't you tell him."

Of course, none of the eunuchs and court ladies dared to speak.

At this moment, Qi Yunyao suddenly felt that his chest was stuffy like a big stone was pressed down. He tried to take a deep breath, but he couldn't breathe in at all.

It was as if something was holding his lungs tightly.

The smile on Qi Yunyao's face disappeared without a trace, and at some point, his nails ruthlessly poked into the flesh.

At this time, Qi Yunyao looked very calm on the surface, but in his heart, there were already thousands of thoughts rushing up together.

After a few breaths, all kinds of emotions were suppressed by him again, and there was only one emotion left in Qi Yunyao's heart.

fear.

Qi Yunyao has lived in this magnificent palace for more than ten years, and the plants, trees, pavilions and palaces here have all been imprinted in his mind.

Just now, Qi Yunyao was walking while chatting with the imperial physician, not paying attention to the surrounding scene.Until now, he finally found that the golden red palace in his impression was different from the past.

The pavilions that were usually hung with golden yarns were replaced with white silks at some point.

... White silk?

Seeing this scene, Qi Yunyao told himself over and over again in his heart—it wasn't long before the late emperor passed away, and these white silks should be hung for him.

But this idea just popped up, and was denied by Qi Yunyao himself.

No... not for the first emperor.

Although Qi Yunyao, the seventh prince of the year, seemed to have no business and knew how to have fun all day long, he grew up in Huazhang Palace after all.

Qi Yunyao knew that the palace had always considered white silk to be unlucky.

After the death of the first emperor, the palace would only replace the golden yarn with a dark one.

These white silks should be Qi Baili's handwriting...

Although Qi Yunyao didn't know Qi Baili well, let alone being familiar with him.But Qi Yunyao knew that Qi Baili was actually a person who disregarded taboos.

At this moment, Qi Yunyao forgot to hide his emotions, and there was nowhere to hide his fear.

He was thinking, who is the white silk hanging in Huazhang Palace for?

Everyone could see that Qi Yunyao's eyes were no longer calm.At the same time, Qi Baili took two steps forward and stood beside Qi Yunyao.

Qi Baili didn't speak, but followed Qi Yunyao's gaze and looked around at everything around him.

Under the breeze and drizzle, the long white silk covered half of the vermilion wall, and for a moment, this place didn't look like Fengcheng in the past.

Qi Yunyao took a deep look at Qi Baili, and he suddenly felt that the other party, like this Huazhang Palace, had a ferocious face.

The prince who was born here and grew up here suddenly understood Pei Ruzhou back then.At this moment, he also felt that the Huazhang Palace in front of him was like a huge birdcage, and also like a ferocious beast, devouring everyone's lives.

Escape, he wants to escape!

At the same time this word appeared in his mind, Qi Yunyao turned around abruptly and headed towards the carriage not far away.

Seeing Qi Yunyao's actions, the eunuchs around were taken aback and got up to stop him.However, what was unexpected was that just as they were about to do this, Qi Baili who was not far away said in a deep voice, "Let him go."

Qi Baili has never felt that he is a tolerant person, on the contrary, he must report his flaws.

At this time, Qi Baili looked a little strange to everyone, which was completely different from his usual appearance.What they didn't know was that this was actually Qi Baili's revenge.

What he begged for was Qi Yunyao, and he would have no peace for the rest of his life.

Qi Yunyao directly let go of the good horse in front of the carriage, and rode away to the outside of Huazhang Palace.

With Qi Baili's verbal instructions, no one stopped him along the way.

I don't know when, the original drizzle suddenly became heavier, and the raindrops hit the face like ice scum.From the corner of Qi Yunyao's eyes, he saw that the corners of Fengcheng were all plain white. Such a large-scale painting could only come from Qi Baili.

The brown-red horse became the only color in this long street.

The answer seemed to be at hand.

The horse galloped, and the surrounding scenes turned into afterimages, but Qi Yunyao closed his eyes at this moment, trying to drive the chaotic thoughts out of his mind.

No, it must not be like this...

Ghost Needle Grass, Lobelia, Araceae...

Qi Yunyao silently recited the herbal medicine to detoxify the snake in his heart over and over again. He hoped that these names could ease his anxiety.Most importantly, get that horrible thought out of your mind.

I don't know how many times I have recited this prescription, Qi Yunyao finally saw the Mansion of General Zhenxi appear at the end of the long street.

At this time, it was raining heavily.

But separated by a thick rain curtain, Qi Yunyao still found a thick white flower stacked on the plaque of the Zhenxi General's Mansion.

"Like the day..."

Qi Yunyao squeezed these two words out of his throat with great difficulty, his eyes widened, and he just stayed alone in the rain.

Pained by the raindrops, the brown-red horse couldn't help but leaned back.At this time, he finally jumped off the horse belatedly.

Through the rain curtain, Qi Yunyao saw that the gate of Zhenxi General's Mansion was suddenly pushed open from the inside.Without caring too much, he stumbled and ran over there.And at this time, on the other side of the long street, Qi Baili, who is now the Emperor of Dayi, did not know when he came here surrounded by a group of people.

People from Mingming Palace crowded the streets and alleys, but from a distance, Qi Baili in the crowd was still extremely lonely.

Looking at Qi Yunyao's back, Qi Baili narrowed his eyes slowly, then waved his hands to make the palace servants stop in place, while he held an umbrella and walked slowly towards Qi Yunyao's direction.

At this time, Qi Yunyao had already walked to the door of the General Zhenxi's mansion, seeing his drenched body, the person who just opened the door was startled.

She was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened, and she stammered, "Seventh, seventh prince?"

Coincidentally, the person who came happened to be Cong Tao who had been by Pei Ruzhou's side all the time.

When Qi Yunyao recognized her, he saw that Cong Tao was dressed in plain clothes, and she was usually dressed delicately, but today she didn't even have a little powder on her face.

On top of that, the eye circles from Peach are bright red.

The first moment she saw Qi Yunyao, Cong Tao subconsciously called him "Seventh Prince", but after a breath, her face darkened.

Cong Tao stopped Qi Yunyao, said with a sneer, "Your Highness Seventh, isn't it enough for you to harm the young master?"

Qi Yunyao is a smart person, but now he would rather not understand Cong Tao's words.Qi Yunyao was still standing in the rain, he couldn't help but whispered to himself in an extremely small voice: "...I, did I harm him?"

At this time, Qi Baili finally came.

He just smiled, and then said to Cong Tao: "Don't stop Qi Yunyao, since he has come here, I will naturally take him to see Ru Zhou as I said before."

"Yes." Although she didn't want to, Cong Tao pursed her lips and moved away from the door.

Qi Yunyao saw that the Qingshiban Road of the General's Mansion in the west of Zhenxi was submerged by shallow water at some point.And at the end of the cobblestone road, there is... an ancestral hall surrounded by fireworks.A big "Dian" character just hit his eyes.

Qi Yunyao, who was rushing all the way to see Pei Ruzhou, didn't move at this time as if he was nailed to the spot.

He saw a frayed longbow outside the ancestral hall.

In Qi Yunyao's mind, the scene of Pei Ruzhou shooting arrows when he was in the palace flashed across.

At that time, Pei Ruzhou was so high-spirited.The feather arrow flew out of his hand, pierced into the archery target with a swish, piercing the air and dust in an instant.

But now, the bow and arrow lay quietly on the long case, and its owner... didn't know where it went.

Why did he disappear?

Is it because of years of war, or because of... the snake venom that can't go away?

Qi Yunyao dared not move forward.

But Qi Baili didn't give Qi Yunyao such a chance.

He walked over, stretched out his hand and lightly pointed in the direction of the smoke, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Don't you want to see him? It's there, why don't you pass?"

After finishing speaking, Qi Baili paused and said again: "Oh, by the way, although I don't like ghosts and gods, I have heard a lot of exquisite things from other places recently. According to what they said, this place is just a wooden sign at this moment. You If you want to see Ru Zhou, you should go..."

"Where to go?"

Qi Yunyao's voice was trembling beyond words.He said it instinctively.

However, as soon as the words fell, Qi Yunyao regretted it.

He didn't want to hear Qi Baili's answer.

But how could Qi Baili not say anything?

Qi Yunyao slowly closed his eyes, letting the raindrops hit his face.

He heard Qi Baili say to himself: "You should go to the Netherworld."

……

This year's spring rain was exceptionally heavy. After finishing what he said just now, Qi Baili left here with an umbrella and stepping on the accumulated water on the ground.

It seems that Qi Yunyao is the only one left in the huge Zhenxi General's Mansion.

His eyes passed through the raindrops and fell on the smoke stove, his expression became extremely confused.

After a few breaths, Qi Yunyao suddenly smiled not far away.

"Ghost Needle Grass, Lobelia, Arisa..."

The Seventh Prince, who used to be the most beautiful in Fengcheng in the past, stumbled towards the outside of the General's Mansion while chanting these words.

Probably because of his smile, it didn't match his sad gaze, no one around him dared to step forward to stop him.

"Ghost needle grass, lobelia, tiannanxing...Ru Zhou, I'll go find medicine for you," Qi Yunyao muttered as he walked, "When you find it, your poison will be cured..."

"Ghost needle grass..."

On this day, all the people in Fengcheng saw a man in brocade clothes, chanting herbal prescriptions they had never heard of, walking around like a headless fly, and finally disappeared outside the city. in the forest.

It was said that he went there to look for herbs.

On the same day, Emperor Dayi decreed that the names of the former emperor's seventh sons were completely deleted from the imperial ancestral hall.

From then on, Qi Yunyao, the seventh son of the emperor, no longer existed in the world, only a drug seeker who disappeared.
