Destiny of crossing

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, no one dared to come forward.

It was Fu Jian who spoke first. He lazily stood up, clasped his fists and nodded: "Fu Jian, in order to give up the task of restoring the country, is willing to follow Emperor Ran all his life, and only be sent by Emperor Ran."

Immediately, he took out a fist-sized thing wrapped in brocade from his bosom, and handed it over with both hands.

Gao Hu took it with both hands and brought it to Pei Ran.

Pei Ran opened it, and a jade seal carved from topaz appeared in front of her eyes.

"This is……"

When Yao Chang saw it, his eyes widened instantly, and he called out in his heart: "Chuan Guo Yuxi?"

It was inevitable that others would scold him for treachery and seek power to usurp the throne. Yao Chang had always wanted to get this Jade Seal, so that he could formally replace Fu Jian as the throne. Unexpectedly, this Jade Seal was dedicated to Pei Ran in this way.

"To show my sincerity, I present the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, can Ran'er rest assured?"

Pei Ran was surprised for a moment, it was not easy to make Fu Jian compromise, but now he bowed his head to him and presented the jade seal with his own hands. Although this thing was of no use to him, it was necessary for Fu Jian to restore the country .

This kind of dedication made him not know how to deal with it for a while, so he could only suppress the little ripples in his heart, and said loudly: "Today, I am lucky to have the help of King Fu Tian. As the founding prince, to take charge of one side and benefit the common people, what does Aiqing think?"

Fu Jian bent his eyes and said with a smile, "Thank you, Emperor Long En." Then he winked at Pei Ran.

Pei Ran was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect to do such a thing at such a serious moment, she cursed inwardly, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only endure her internal pain and said: "Then Murong Chong depends entirely on Ai Qing. "

Fu Jian said: "Your Majesty, don't worry."

Pei Ran smiled: "Then Ai Qing can go down and rest."

Fu Jian stepped back, and before leaving, he did not forget to glance at Shen Yi.

At this moment, Yao Chang jumped out and said, "Pei Ran, what if I don't want to surrender? Are you going to kill me?"

Pei Ran said with a cold face: "No, if you want to leave, Gu will not stop you, but when our Shu army invades the country, when you Yao Chang dies, Gu will never give you a second chance." Second chance, Yao Chang, you have to think about it."

Yao Chang cupped his fists and said bitterly: "I hope Emperor Ran will keep his word and let me go back to my homeland, then Yao Chang will bid farewell."

After Yao Chang finished speaking, he took big strides and walked out.

When the other envoys saw it, they immediately became agitated.

"Then we..."

"You can go too, remember to convey the emperor's meaning today to your master."

"Yes Yes……"

All the envoys left in a hurry after paying homage as if they were about to receive an amnesty.

On the Xiantai, in the main hall, there was a gap, and there were only two emperors, Tuoba Gui and Shen Yi, left on the seats.

Pei Ran skipped over Shen Yi, and cast his eyes on Tuoba Gui: "I wonder what the Northern Wei Emperor's plans are?"

Tuobagui pursed his lips, his apricot eyes didn't know what to care about. Hearing this, he turned into a childlike innocent smile, and his clear and hearty voice: "Brother Ran, others may find it hard to convince me. It is useless to save my life. But if it is you, I would like to take my soldiers and people from the Northern Wei Dynasty to join you. I just hope that Brother Ran will not blame Xiaoyun for his prank before. Also, I hope that Brother Ran can fulfill his original promise to me. Take me to my mother's grave personally, maybe my mother would like to see you too!"

What he said was reasonable, sincere and righteous, Pei Ran had no choice but to refuse, but for the sake of the overall situation, he agreed immediately.

"Then Gu will make you the left minister of the court today, and stay by Gu's side to do things, how about it?"

Tuoba Gui's eyes immediately lit up: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reminder, Xiao Yun loves the position of Prime Minister to death."

Pei Ran chuckled: "Then I hope Aiqing will hand in the Northern Wei Bing Talisman quickly."

Tuobagui was stunned for a few seconds, then smiled again: "Brother Ran, don't worry, since Xiaoyun promised Brother Ran, he will definitely not break his promise."

"Well, it's not too late, Aiqing, hurry up and come back!"

Regarding surrender, it is just a verbal promise now. Anyone can have a chance to repent or play tricks, but this is a gamble, or it is just a show. It is best to have a sincere surrender. Yes, if not, today I have fully demonstrated my strength. As long as there is this heavenly book, it will be a matter of time to unify the world, but Pei Ran hopes to minimize the damage.

After sending away Tuobagui, only Shen Yi was left in the hall.

Only then did Pei Ran turn her gaze on Shen Yi.

The graying of the temples, the affectionate gaze, the heartstrings trembled for some reason, and the feeling in the chest was unknown.

What is close at hand like the end of the world, Pei Ran suddenly felt that the person in front of him was too far away from him.

Waiting for this moment alone together.

Shen Yi stood up and called out: "Ran'er—"

"Emperor Xiaowu." Pei Ran said coldly, without emotion, without warmth, as if on both sides of the ice.

Shen Yi wanted to approach him, but was stopped by someone.

Several long swords pressed against their chests, widening the distance between them, like a gap that cannot be crossed.

He saw the pride in Pei Ran's eyes.

"Sima Yao, you once said that I am someone you can play with at will, what about now? Sima Yao, have you ever thought that your country, your glory, will be destroyed by my own hands in the near future, How can you control me?"

Those hateful eyes!

Shen Yi's chest was so painful that he almost twitched, but it was not because of Pei Ran's irony, but because of Pei Ran's pain, how he should have hurt him in the first place, so that those eyes that were always smiling are now full of such pain. hate.

While heartbroken, he couldn't justly say, Ran'er, I am Shen Yi, not Sima Yao, and I have recovered my memory.

yes!Shen Yi was originally his protection, but now, it has become his hatred.

Seeing that Shen Yi didn't speak, Pei Ran said again: "Sima Yao, I won't persuade you to make peace, you go! Wait for the moment when our Shu army invades health! I will let you prostrate at my feet and enjoy being loved by others." The taste of insult."

"No," Shen Yi said suddenly, "You don't have to wait until that day."

After all, he was not afraid of the weapons in front of him, and walked towards Pei Ran step by step against their swords.

The guards didn't know what he was going to do, and couldn't get the emperor's instructions, so they had to retreat again and again.

Just when Shen Yi was getting closer to Pei Ran, a guard was afraid that Shen Yi would harm the emperor, so he exerted force on his sword and pierced the flesh with his sword.

Shen Yi paused.

The blood instantly stained the clothes red, and it was deeply reflected in Pei Ran's eyes.

Pei Ran's heart trembled: "You—"

Shen Yi smiled and continued to walk forward.

As he moved forward, the sword pierced deeper and deeper, and his chest was no longer a blooming red, but twisted into a stream.

When he was only one step away from Pei Ran, Shen Yi finally stopped, and the sword almost pierced his chest.

The guard pulled out his sword, blood was almost gushing out.

Pei Ran felt dizzy for a while, and was helped to straighten her body before she said, "You, what are you doing?"

Shen Yi covered his chest, and knelt down at Pei Ran's feet: "Ran'er, I know this sword can't beat the pain on your ankle. If you hate it, you can do a few more sword strikes. I Shen Yi Yi, you must fully accept it."

"Shen Yi?" Pei Ran suddenly raised her voice: "Who told you to call yourself Shen Yi?"

Shen Yi raised his head: "Ran'er, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Pei Ran smiled: "Sima Yao, I didn't expect you to learn to play tricks. Why, didn't the tricks work before? Don't you only use your status as an emperor to suppress me? Now, what's wrong?"

Suddenly a mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth: "Ran'er, tell me, how can I make up for the previous injury, how can I heal the wound on your heart, Ran'er, I don't want to see you in pain, Ran'er, I am I like to see the way you smile, like sunshine..."

Pei Ran put on a cold face: "Painful? Why should I be in pain? Sima Yao, don't be self-righteous?"

"Ran Er," Shen Yi's voice became smaller and smaller: "If I can shed all my blood, I can exchange you for a lifetime of worry-free happiness, and I am willing. I am afraid that I will enter the Naihe Bridge and drink Mengpo soup. I really can't remember you."

"Haha, what a joke, are you saying this because you want me to keep you? Don't dream, okay? Let me tell you, I, Pei Ran, have never loved an emperor named Sima Yao, let alone for his sake." death, and pity in the heart."

Shen Yi shook his head: "Ran'er, you know that I am Shen Yi, you knew from the very beginning, why, why didn't you recognize me, why did you hide me for so long, you thought your sacrifice was to fulfill my glory and honor , but I don’t know, how would I live in my world without you? Ran’er, let me ask you, if I don’t recover my memory, are you going to hide it from me for the rest of my life?”

Pei Ran was startled: "No, what you said is wrong, Shen Yi is already dead, he died on the day he fell off the cliff, and now you are Sima Yao, the one wearing Shen Yi's skin, but your heart has been completely shattered. Sima Yao who killed the ruthless emperor."

Shen Yi's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he didn't know whether it was tears or his gradually lost consciousness that blinded his eyes. He found that he couldn't see Ran'er clearly. He tried hard to open his eyes to see clearly, but he couldn't open them no matter what. not open.

No, he shouted in his heart, he didn't want to die, no, he still wanted to protect Pei Ran, he said that he would love him and take care of him for the rest of his life, and he would never break his promise.

The peach blossom tree appeared in front of him again, and the gentle sunlight hit Pei Ran's happy smiling face.

"Ran'er, if I, Shen Yi, betray you, I will be lonely for the rest of my life, and I will never get true love."

That pretense of determination and firmness was finally shattered when Shen Yi lost consciousness.

That red shirt, the bright red of that place!

He said in a voice with a different pitch: "I don't want him to die, go to the imperial doctor."

He told himself in his heart that he didn't want him to die so easily, he still wanted to trample him under his feet, and he wanted to see his painful and lonely appearance.

Little did he know, he had lost the strength to walk back to the palace by himself, but he didn't know that his hands and feet were already as cold as ice, let alone that he had already burst into tears.
