Chapter 412 (1/2)
Liu Yuan had a very long dream. There was Xiyu talking and laughing with her in the street, and Chu Chengxun arguing with her in Duanwang's house. Xu Hanfei is pouring wine for her in the listening snow building. She is upside down in these scenes. Sometimes Chu Chengxun and sometimes Xu Hanfei appeared in front of her. She suddenly opened her eyes. But unexpectedly smelled a smell of blood.
General Shen stood at the door. His figure was stretched to the bedside by the moonlight. Liu Yuan stared round at him. His face turned pale at once. ”Who are you? What are you doing in our house?”
General Shen smiled, ”I'm ordered by the prime minister to invite the lay back. The queen is seriously ill. I need the lay's help.”
”Your queen's time is so great that even Hua Tuo can't save her alive, let alone my little doctor. I told her earlier. It's fatal,” Liu Yuan quickly calmed himself down. ”It's no use if you come. I can't save the queen even if I go back. I don't want to go back at all.”
General Shen narrowed his eyes dangerously. ”Don't struggle, monk. You elope with the fugitive, which is something both the emperor and the queen know. Do you think you and Xu Hanfei can escape, or don't be delusional. You follow us back. Maybe the queen will let you go once again, but if you don't obey, there's no way.”
There was a strange flash in the bottom of Liu Yuan's eyes. She immediately touched the dagger at the bottom of the pillow. She blinked calmly and thought of the smell of blood when she woke up. ”Xu Hanfei, have you caught him?”
General Shen sighed faintly, ”Xu Hanfei is difficult to catch. I just took a lot of effort to catch him and sent him to Kyoto overnight. I hope the residents don't waste my time and energy.”
Then it is impossible for Xu Hanfei to escape the death of his head. Liu Yuan's eyes lit up and his voice was like torn gauze, ”you can't think about it.”
The blade was like a flash of lightning. He almost didn't react. When he was about to go forward and grab the dagger in her hand, Liu Yuan decisively wiped his neck. Fresh blood gushed out of her snow-white neck like a fountain and rushed to general Shen's hand.
All the light in Liu Yuan's eyes disappeared. She was like a puppet pulled out of the line and fell on the bed full of blood. The moonlight fell from the pane. Everywhere she went was shocking, showing a tragedy that had just happened.
General Shen sighed faintly, ”why bother? You wouldn't have been like this. It should be Xu Hanfei. You are so young and powerful. The queen will forgive you. Why force yourself to this?”
Unfortunately, the puppet could not answer him, leaving only the pale and cold moonlight in the room. A guard asked low, ”general, what should we do now?”
”What else can we do? She wants to kill herself. What does it have to do with us?” general Shen said with his lips. ”Tell the emperor the truth. We've been looking for so long. There's nothing we can do.”
The peach blossoms in guimeng Temple fell all over the ground, and no one came to pick them up. The willow branches danced in the air with the gentle wind, like a beautiful woman's rotating waist. Bursts of sweet flute sound came from the room and floated in the spring.
Chu Chengxun put down his flute and burned the letter writing that Xiyu had left in the charcoal fire. People always asked lightly, ”the queen is seriously ill. The emperor is very worried. He sent people to all parts of the state of Qin to hunt down Xu Hanfei and Liu Yuan. Did you catch them?”
Liu Bingliang's face was still hung with the wedding to fade away. He coughed gently. ”Xu Hanfei was caught by general Shen, but Liu Yuan was fierce. He knew that he would come to no good end even if he returned to the palace, so he immediately killed himself. He didn't even leave a word. He was almost determined.”
Chu Chengxun's eyes slowly darkened. ”I also guessed that she and the queen have always been seemingly in harmony. In addition, she knows that she will not be forgiven by the emperor and the queen when she returns to the palace, but will be secretly executed after treatment. When did you see that the queen is a good person?”
Liu Bingliang gave him a meaningful look, ”how do I think you speak very interesting? Didn't you like the queen before and almost had a conflict with the emperor? Why did you stay in guimeng temple for a few days and you immediately completely changed like a person? You don't have any feelings for the queen?”
”Don't talk nonsense. If others hear me, I will be withdrawn and beheaded like Xu Hanfei. A prince like me is very dangerous,” Chu Chengxun frowned and drank a mouthful of tea. ”The emperor has been like that for generations. I just ask them to let me stay in guimeng temple and ignore me.”
The falling flowers outside the window floated on the table. Liu Bingliang brushed away the petals and said with a smile: ”it's a pity that the recluse Liu Yuan is so determined. I'm afraid the queen can't recover. Without the recluse, she is like this dying peach blossom tree.”
”She doesn't have any way to live. The Buddhist monk told her a long time ago that her body can't support it at all,” Chu Chengxun recalled his lips. ”It's just that the emperor is still delusional. Forget it. I don't want to entangle with them. Just go wherever they go. I'll just have a good time in guimeng temple.”
