A thousand years

Gu Ruofan knelt on the ground, gently stroking the stone tablet that was already somewhat vicissitudes of life, looking at the majestic and free-spirited Gu Yuan, the God of War in Southern Chu, feeling extremely complicated in his heart.

This is the Southern Chu Imperial Mausoleum.

Raising his head, he looked at Gu Huai, who was standing quietly by the side, whose expression could not be seen clearly. Gu Ruofan did not speak either.

The wind is rustling, and the sky is full of yellow sand.

Unknowingly, Gu Yuan's death has become a forbidden place between the two of them that cannot be provoked.Even though Gu Ruofan knew in his heart that Gu Hongwen was the one who was afraid of his father's high skills, so he was the one who ruthlessly killed him, but the knot in his heart couldn't be untied no matter what.

He didn't say it, and he didn't say it. This is a tacit understanding, but it is also a restricted area.

Unexpectedly, Gu Huai would bring him to the Imperial Tomb overnight.

Unable to tell what it was like in his heart, Gu Ruofan stared blankly at Gu Yuan's tombstone.

The God of War in Southern Chu, Gu Yuan hit an arrow in that battle, and the tip of the arrow was poisoned.As expected of Gu Hongwen, who knows his seventh brother best, Gu Yuan found himself hit by an arrow on the battlefield. Even though the pain was unbearable, he still kept silent. He persisted until the last moment of the battle before he collapsed from exhaustion. Returning to the tent, the poison has already entered the heart and lungs, and it is difficult for Hua Tuo to return to heaven.

My own father, such an upright hero, has spent his whole life fighting for the country of Southern Chu, throwing his head and blood, but it ended in this way.Gu Ruofan slowly embraced Gu Yuan's tombstone.

"Your Majesty, have you ever regretted it in this life?" As if talking to himself, Gu Ruofan looked calmly at the depths of the imperial tomb.

Gu Yuan stood tall and tall, standing behind Gu Ruofan, staring at the back of the man kneeling in front of Gu Yuan's tomb, with deep eyes, after hearing Gu Ruofan's question, he was silent for a moment.

do you regret

Perhaps Gu Hongwen has never regretted it in his life.

Back then, the concubine mother committed suicide, smiling and silent, and gave the family an explanation with her own life.Gu Hongwen rushed to the bedroom, and when he saw the cold body, he just frowned and remained silent for a moment.

The emperor is ruthless, really ruthless.

Regarding Gu Yuan, who had overshadowed his prestige back then, even if he was an extremely close brother, he probably didn't have any hesitation at all.

In Gu Hongwen's eyes, no one or anything is as important as the power in his hands.

With a calm voice, Gu Huai shook his head lightly: "No."

Hahahaha, Gu Ruofan laughed violently, too loudly, coughed violently, lowered his head and supported his chest, but still couldn't stop laughing.

father, did you hear

Even if it caused you to die in battle and your family to be ruined, Gu Hongwen will never regret it in his life!

Gu Huai stood quietly at the back, watching Gu Ruofan venting his unwillingness, resentment, and pain like crazy.For more than a year, he watched with his own eyes Gu Ruofan's silence day by day, he was tortured by the pain and guilt in his heart day and night, he had nightmares every night, tossing and turning.He has been silent for too long, and there are too many things in his heart, he needs this kind of venting.

Finally, Gu Ruofan calmed down without looking back.

"Ah Huai, tell me, the blood of the person standing in that position is cold"

One day later, Nan Chu will hold the grand enthronement ceremony of the new emperor, and Gu Huai will step up to that high position step by step.Although he didn't know why he suddenly brought himself to the imperial mausoleum today to see his father's tomb, he didn't ask, and he didn't say anything.

But he couldn't help but feel a little cold, bone-chilling cold.

The emperor is ruthless.

He has always understood that it's not that the emperor is ruthless, but when you sit in that position, there are too many things that you can't help yourself, life and death are taken away, and corpses are everywhere.

Gu Huai stared at Gu Ruofan who was dressed in white, with a somewhat thin back, and his eyes, which were usually cold and sharp, softened a little at this moment, with black eyes burning. The man stood in the Southern Chu Imperial Tomb, with a clear and firm voice.

"No."

Even if the Son of Heaven is ruthless, it is still for the people of the world. Gu Huai will always have love for Gu Ruofan in his life.

"Ruofan, look back at me."

Gu Ruofan turned back slowly, and in the background of howling wind and yellow sand all over the sky, he saw a pair of black and bright eyes, deep, bright, and gentle, it seemed that all unwillingness, fear, and impetuousness were all contained in these eyes , Instantly vanished.

Gu Huai smiled at Gu Ruofan, took a deep breath, and knelt down straight in front of Gu Yuan's tombstone.

Although the man was dressed in coarse linen clothes, he couldn't hide the cold and dignified aura around him, but at this moment, he had deep eyes, and he knelt firmly and calmly on the ground. Gu Ruofan was startled and stood up Looking at Gu Huai, he was about to speak, but was stopped by Gu Huai.

He wanted to do this thing a long time ago, until Gu Hongwen passed away, and he would be enthroned as emperor tomorrow. Gu Huai was very clear about what he was doing now, and he didn't even have a single moment when he was more sober than he is now.

As the god of war in Southern Chu, Gu Yuan has great achievements. Even though he has no intention of rebellion, he is still regarded by Gu Hongwen as a thorn in his side and a killer.

If Gu Huai were the emperor, even if he was loyal, he would not be able to keep such a person.

However, he is Gu Ruofan's father.

Even if it was Gu Hongwen's order, even all of this has nothing to do with Gu Huai.

Gu Ruofan said he liked him, but said he didn't hate him.

But he was very clear in his heart that if that thorn did not end, it would always be there.

Under Gu Ruofan's shocked eyes, Gu Huai bowed and kowtowed.

boom!

boom!

boom!

After three resounding kowtows, Gu Huai's eyes were calm, and he waved his hand, and the Xuanbing sword was unsheathed.

The Excalibur has a spirit, as if it sensed the breath of its former master, it actually let out a humming sound, trembled slightly, and the cold air was awe-inspiring.

Gu Huai held Xuan Bing in his hand, with a flash of sword light, he raised his hand fiercely and resolutely, and stabbed it into his belly.

The sound of the sharp sword piercing into flesh and blood could be heard very clearly in such a turbulent imperial tomb.

Gu Ruofan's pupils shrank suddenly, and he saw blood flowing down Xuanbing's sword, and instantly splashed a shocking blood red on the yellow ground.

Gu Huai let out a muffled snort, gritted his teeth, his complexion remained unchanged, his hands kept moving, and he inserted a few more inches into it, bleeding profusely.

Gu Ruofan rushed forward and understood Gu Huai's meaning almost instantly.

He's making amends, he's making amends!

He knelt in front of his father's tomb, apologizing.

He took his father's Xuanbing to make atonement!

With red eyes, Gu Ruofan kept shaking his head, and stretched out his hand to cover Gu Huai's sword wound. The blood trickled down his fingertips, dripping down, and even the air was filled with the smell of salty blood.

Gu Huai's face was pale, his eyes were as black as ink, he gently shook his head at Gu Ruofan, raised his hand to stop the man from covering the wound, slowly raised the corners of his lips, his eyes were gentle.

"Don't panic, I'm fine."

Facing Gu Huai's bottomless eyes, Gu Ruofan shook his whole body, felt a dull pain in his chest, shook his head in panic, wanted to speak in embarrassment, but didn't know what to do, his eyes were red, his throat was trembling, and his eyes were sore Powerful, full of heart and eyes, all look like Gu Huai's pale face, bleeding profusely.

Gu Huai raised his hand, as if he couldn't feel the pain in his abdomen, he didn't smile, but he could make people feel, under the extremely sharp appearance, such soft understanding, gentleness.

"do not Cry."

Pulling out the Xuan Bing, he frowned, and the severe pain hit his heart. Gu Huai shook his body, but still gritted his teeth, bowed again, and kowtowed in the direction of Gu Yuan's tombstone.

His forehead knocked on the ground, making a dull sound.

Looking at Gu Huai's side face, Gu Ruofan cried out almost instantly, tears welling up.

Wiping away the tears on the man's face, Gu Huai's eyes were gentle, a little apologetic, and he raised his head, still kneeling, facing Gu Yuan's tomb.

Seemingly feeling no pain at all, Gu Huai's face was pale, and his voice was low, with a hint of imperceptible apology.

"Today, Gu Huai repays with flesh and blood the heroic soul who died unjustly in that battle seven years ago."

"Gu Huai is willing to bear all the sins."

"Gu Huai died every day, fell into the endless cycle of hell, and suffered the crime of being hacked into pieces, begging for forgiveness from Lord Gu"

"It is said that the Son of Heaven is ruthless, but today."

"To all the ancestors of Southern Chu, Gu Huai swears with his life and curses with his blood."

"In this life, I will never disappoint Gu Ruofan."

In this life, Gu Huai will never fail Gu Ruofan!

Never lose!

Gu Huai stood up slowly, turned around, looked at the man who was already in a panic and tears were pouring down, gently raised the corners of his lips, and pulled him into his arms, with gentle eyes and burning black eyes, looking into the distance In the vast green hills, there is a lingering murderous look between his eyebrows and eyes. He is such a hard and indifferent man. At this moment, the posture of holding Gu Ruofan is so gentle that it is almost clumsy.

That sword pierced very deeply, almost exhausting all of Gu Huai's strength.

He has always been indifferent and self-sufficient, rational and approaching monsters, but this sword was the only one he stabbed out with Gu Ruofan kneeling in front of Gu Yuan's tomb the day before he ascended the throne.

It's not that he didn't think about the consequences, but he was afraid.

He was afraid that if tomorrow passed, everything would be too late.

So today, he faced the mountain, the sandstorm, Gu Yuan, and the heroic soul of the Southern Chu ancestors.

Swear to Gu Ruofan.

In this life, even if Gu Huai overturned the world, he would never do anything to hurt Gu Ruofan.

Shocking the world? Violating human ethics? So what?

What I used to think was, I love you, even if you hate me, as long as you keep your life safe and happy, then I will be alone, and it doesn’t matter if I go to that high and cold place.

But now, when he was sure that Gu Ruofan also loved him, even if it was the two of them, they would not be blessed by the world and would be cursed by everyone.

Gu Huai wanted him too.

Putting more strength into hugging Gu Ruofan, Gu Huai let out a sigh of satisfaction in his heart, as if he had a weakness in his heart, and he seemed to have armor.

Now, this is love.
