Huang Tu buried the coffin, and the three Miss Chu family were helped back because they were too sad.

Yang Zhongfa's eyes were red, he walked to Chu Hechao's side without a word, cupped his hands, "General... Take care."

Chu Hechao nodded with a green stubble on his chin, and he nodded expressionlessly.

Compared to those three ladies, Chu Hechao looked really indifferent.He showed no expression of grief, nor shed a single tear.It wasn't his own parents who died, but two strangers.

It's not an exaggeration to say that his heart is hard-hearted.But Yang Zhongfa knew that the general wasn't sad or in pain, he just kept it in his heart and didn't show it.

Yang Zhong hesitated to speak, and in the end he just left with the others and gave up the place to the general.

After walking away, Yang Zhongfa couldn't help but look back again.

Yuan Li stood beside Chu Hechao, raising his hand to gently pat Chu Hechao's back.The picture of them standing together is surprisingly harmonious for outsiders to penetrate.

Yang Zhongfa was in a trance for a moment, then hurriedly turned his head without daring to look further.

Fortunately, Master Yuan was still there... He sighed in his heart, hoping that Master Yuan could comfort the general well.

There was no one else, Chu Hechao raised his robe and knelt in front of the tombstone, his back straight, like a tall and lonely stone sculpture.

Yuan Li knelt with him and lit paper money in front of the grave.

The flames rose a little higher, and Yuan Li looked at the tombstone with complicated eyes.

He had only been with Chu Wang and his wife for less than two months, but Chu Wang's family had helped him a lot.The King of Chu and his wife were also very kind to him and took care of him as their own nephew.

A few days ago, they were still thinking about how to explain and persuade Chu Wang and his wife if they found out what happened between them after they came back.Yuan Li also cleaned up their rooms, and asked someone to set up the kang for them.

I thought about how to live the days to come, but the person disappeared.

The world is impermanent.

Yuanli finished burning the paper, and the sky darkened.The sky is shrouded in twilight, and the sun is setting in the west.

"Let's go back." He turned his head to look at the man and said softly.

Chu Hechao knelt silently, his posture completely motionless.The ashes of the burnt paper money flew on his head and between his eyebrows, and even the ashes of the paper money lingered on him, but the parents in the grave left so cruelly and resolutely.

Chu Hechao didn't speak, the surrounding was so quiet that there was only the crackling of the fire.

Yuan Li said again: "Ci Ye."

Chu Hechao responded from his throat, "Okay."

He stood up, his knees were covered with wet soil, Chu Hechao took another look at the grave, his eyes were slightly wet, and Yuanli turned and left.

When we returned to the manor, the last gleam of afterglow was gone.

Yuan Li asked Lin Tian to take his quilt to Chu Hechao's room, and said, "The general hasn't been very well these past two days, so I slept in the same room with him and watched him a lot."

As soon as the words came out, no one felt that there was anything wrong.Lin Tian said yes, "My lord, I will move another bed in for you."

Yuanli nodded.

The servants quickly finished everything and left one after another.The lights in Chu Hechao's room were lit, and Yuanli's bed was placed across the table from Chu Hechao's bed.

Yuan Li went into the room and closed the door, walked up to Chu Hechao and sat down, "I'll sleep in your room tonight."

Chu Hechao looked at his bed, forced the corners of his mouth to curl up, and nodded.

After a while, he grabbed Yuan Li's hand and said in a hoarse voice: "Stay with me more, Le Jun."

Looking at his haggard face, Yuan Li felt that he had seen all the fragility hidden by the man, and he hummed, feeling pain in his heart, "I'll be with you."

Chu Hechao held Yuanli's hand with great strength, and then let it go quickly.Repeatedly and repeatedly, the emotions in my heart are also pulled back and forth.

Finally, he took out a letter from his sleeve, which was a letter from Eunuch Yang after he woke up from a coma.The letter was written by the King of Chu, but Chu Hechao never read it.

Chu Hechao didn't know what would be written in it, and he didn't know if reading it would make him more painful.

But Yuanli was by his side right now, giving him the strength to open the envelope, so Chu Hechao opened it anyway.

The letter was very thick, with five pages in total. This was the thickest letter the King of Chu had ever written to Chu Hechao.

The King of Chu wrote a lot in the letter. First, he talked about the current situation in Luoyang, the character of Emperor Zhou Yan, Li Li's behavior, and who was under his command.Afterwards, he told Chu Hechao to stay in Youzhou well, don't stand out, don't make a big show, let him hoard food, and then develop.

These words took up three full pages, Chu Hechao watched calmly.After these words, is a father's exhortation to his son.

King Chu Hengping of Chu has always been critical of his second son.

Especially after the second son went to join the army regardless of his obstruction when he was young, this kind of pickiness and dissatisfaction reached its peak.

Because he was dissatisfied, he didn't help the second son half of it.In his opinion, the second son is not as smart as the eldest son, and the eldest son's official career is smooth. Only when the whole family stays obediently in Luoyang, the emperor will reuse Chu Mingfeng.Under such circumstances, how could the emperor allow their family to produce another powerful general?

The king of Chu brought his whole family to live under the eyes of the emperor, just to surrender.The second son's departure will only make it more difficult for Chu Mingfeng to walk in the court.

He felt that Chu Hechao was messing around.

Afterwards, as he thought, the emperor feared the Chu family, and the eunuchs also began to harm the eldest son.But King Chu never expected that his second son would also make a name for himself and become a famous general.

A general who is less than 30 years old, he is comparable to the three men, Yi Wanshi, is the biggest official position in the general.

The future is also bright, no worse than the eldest son.

Especially after knowing that Chu Hechao had defeated the Karasuma people, and made the Karasuma people move to Youzhou to bow their heads and proclaim themselves ministers, and after the people of the world gave Chu Hechao the title of "God of War", the King of Chu clearly realized that he His second son is a born star.

He is a famous general who is destined to lead troops to fight and gallop on the battlefield.

The King of Chu was naturally proud, but he was still angry when he saw Chu Hechao's obstinate appearance.

Before he died, he lost all anger, and the king of Chu discovered that he had never said anything good to Chu Hechao in his whole life.

Ashamed, very ashamed.

Hidden in the shame, there is also his guilt and regret.

He babbled a lot in the letter, and finally expressed his shame at the end.

After Chu Hechao read it, the hand holding the letter began to tremble, and his eyes gradually turned red.Yuan Li raised his hand to wipe the corner of his eyes, "Cry if you want to."

The man wiped his eyes, turned around and hugged Yuanli, a suppressed sob burst out of his throat, "Le Jun, I only have you, you can't just leave me like this."

Yuanli hugged him, and wanted to say something to comfort him, saying that you still have a younger sister, and subordinates, and many people who serve you as master, but any words are powerless and pale at this moment, so he clicked He nodded, and responded hoarsely, "Okay."

At night, both of them went to bed very early.Yuan Li also woke up very early. When he woke up, Chu Hechao hadn't woken up yet.This is a rare thing. Yuan Li looked at the black and black eyes of Chu Hechao and the haggardness on his face that could not be concealed, and gently stroked his face.

Even though he did this, the always vigilant man still didn't wake up, which shows how much exhaustion he has accumulated in his heart these days.

Yuan Li went out lightly, asked someone to deliver something, wiped Chu Hechao's face with a towel dipped in water, and began to shave him.

The blue stubble was scraped off bit by bit, and Yuan Li trimmed his hair again before he went to pour the water away.

Guo Lin waited outside the door, "My lord, my subordinates have already found out the servants in the mansion who said that the general's order was hard to beat his relatives."

Yuan Li's expression slowly faltered, and he sneered, "So there really are servants who talked about the general."

He lowered his eyes, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said calmly: "Let's deal with it according to the rules."

Guo Lin replied yes, and quietly retreated.

Chu Hechao was awakened by the nightmare, and sat up suddenly from the bed, panting heavily.He wiped his face, didn't see Yuan Li, his heart tightened, and he went down to find someone with disheveled hair.

As soon as Yuan Li entered the room, he was hugged by a man. Chu Hechao asked, "Where did you go?"

"Go wash up," Yuan Li said obediently, "Are you going to wash up?"

Chu Hechao nodded, hugged him again, and didn't rush out, so he leaned into Yuan Li's ear and said, "I want to kill those eunuchs."

His meaning and tone were very light, but Yuanli could hear his strong killing intent.The killing intent made those who heard it tremble.

Yuan Li said: "They should be killed."

Chu Hechao said: "There is also Li Li."

Yuan Li said: "Okay."

Chu Hechao hugged him quietly, sniffing the smell of Yuanli's body, and the turbulent emotions gradually calmed down.

The coffin had already been buried, and the King Chu and his wife had been dead for almost four months, but the wounds in the hearts of the living would take longer to heal.

In the afternoon of that day, everyone gathered in the study to discuss the death of King Chu and his wife.

The King of Chu and his wife died in Luoyang, so they naturally wanted justice.The group of eunuchs in the prison's mansion have been killed by Li Li, and they have fled. It is best for them to pursue Li Li.If Li Li doesn't give a good explanation, then don't blame them for using tough methods.

After deliberation, they decided that the death of the king and his wife of Chu would be announced to the world, and they would send a letter to Luoyang with extreme anger and fanfare, denouncing Li Li's unjust and immoral actions.

Once this kind of thing is exposed, Li Li will definitely be the object of condemnation by everyone in the world.The "righteous people" all over the world will rise up after hearing the sound and stand firmly behind Chu Hechao.

No matter what these "righteous men" think, once they have the opportunity to attack Li Li, they will never let it go.

Who made Li Li not only kill the king and his wife of Chu, but also be a notorious thief?

As long as he could kill Li Li, he would definitely gain great prestige.This prestige will help anyone to take it to the next level.

Chu Hechao sat on the upper seat with a calm expression, and he remained expressionless until everyone asked him if it was feasible after the discussion, and he nodded and said yes.

He has always looked like this these days, his expression is calm when he does everything, and his coldness is even worse than before.He didn't seem to be interested in most things, so Yang Zhongfa and Guan Zhihuai, who wanted to drink with him and comfort him a few more words, had nothing to do.

I can only sigh secretly in my heart, hoping that the general can get out of the pain of bereavement as soon as possible.But no one knows that the pain of losing parents is so easy and can be resolved in just a few days, especially the general's parents were killed by an adulterer, and the general is an extremely filial person.

After discussing these matters, everyone planned to disperse, but a servant from outside hurriedly came to report that there was an imperial decree coming from outside.

Holy decree?

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, all with serious expressions.Everyone filed out and went outside the manor to see that the rewards given by the emperor had stretched for ten miles.

Not only did this kind of generosity not make people feel happy, but it made everyone feel relieved.

Looking at it again, the person standing at the front who came to give gifts was not an eunuch, but a literati with two beards.This literati has a shrewd appearance and an eager smile. When he sees everyone coming out, he immediately goes up to them.He seemed to recognize who all the people present were, and saluted Chu Hechao and Yuan Li with incomparable accuracy, "Cheng pays his respects to the general and the governor."

Chu Hechao looked at him gloomyly, "Who are you?"

Cheng Bu immediately said: "Next Cheng Bu is just a small horse riding beside the emperor. This time, I got the order of the emperor to present the reward for killing Huyan Wuzhu, the leader of the Xiongnu, to the general, the assassin, and all the generals. one thing."

Chu Hechao's eyes became colder, "You are obviously Li Li's man, how can you pass on the edict on behalf of the emperor."

Cheng Bu wiped the sweat from his forehead. Everyone knew the reason for this. He did not pass on the emperor's decree, but Li Li's decree under the guise of the emperor's name.But he couldn't say it himself, Cheng Bu laughed and said, "Lord Li is also a loyal minister who is loyal to the emperor. I am a man of Lord Li, so naturally I am also a man of the emperor."

The generals behind them suddenly laughed mockingly.

Cheng Bu acted as if he didn't hear it, and said with an unchanged smile, "The rewards are not only gold and silver treasures, silk antiques. Mr. Li also specially sent a few things. I think the general will be overjoyed when he sees them."

After speaking, he clapped his hands.

Soon, soldiers overwhelmed five panic-stricken people and came over.

After seeing Chu Hechao, the five people looked terrified and struggled even harder.

Cheng Bu looked at the faces of Chu Hechao and the others from the corner of his eye, and sighed deeply, with anger and self-blame on his face, "These five people are eunuchs from the Imperial Palace. They acted so boldly that they threatened the king of Chu and Concubine Chu committed suicide by drinking poisoned wine! After hearing about this incident, Your Excellency was extremely indignant, hated the shameless actions of these eunuchs, and regretted that the King of Chu and his wife were killed by these eunuchs. He resolutely ordered the arrest After capturing these eunuchs, Ling Bu traveled thousands of miles to send them to the general."

He bowed to Chu Hechao again, and said sincerely: "My lord said, these eunuchs are allowed to be dealt with by the general, so as to tell the king of Chu and Princess Chu that they are in heaven. gone."
