Chapter 47
Chapter 47
The night in the desert is so dark that it is bottomless.
The three people who fell asleep under the poplar tree saw a sudden fire in front of them.
The fire spark floated in the air, before it bounced to the small and exquisite young man, the handsome young man stretched out his hand to stop him.
When the sparks burned on the back of his hand, the little man tilted his head and leaned on his shoulder, and the sparks burned along the blood vessels to the bottom of his heart.
Gu Cong's shoulder on that side froze, half of his body was at a loss.
He tilted his head to look at the tall nose bridge of the small and exquisite young man, but still couldn't resist raising his other hand, and tugged at the robe covering him.
Suddenly, there was a restless voice from the other side.
"Young master Gu, you can also give me some, I'm cold."
As Chi Yinxu said, he poked out a sleepy head and looked at him by the light of the flickering flames.
Gu Cong glanced at him lightly,
"Fifth Prince is cold, lean closer to the fire."
"Ah, that can't be done." Chi Yinxu frowned, and said lazily, "What if you burn me? If you don't feel bad, sister-in-law will too."
"You care about your sister-in-law the most, don't you?"
Gu Cong wanted to talk about him, but when he heard the last sentence, he kept his mouth shut.
"Hey, Mr. Gu." Chi Yinxu wrapped his body in his robe as he approached him, and moved towards Gu Cong until he touched his shoulder.
"You like my sister-in-law, does he know?"
Gu Cong was startled, and almost couldn't help covering his mouth that couldn't hold anything.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Chi Yinxu raised the corners of his mouth viciously, like a child who hasn't grown up, but lowered his voice,
"All right, all right, I won't say anything."
"My second brother is so good, I forgive you but you can't grab him."
Gu Cong lowered his eyebrows, his tone was still calm, like the prince, he couldn't see any emotion,
"The prince and concubine's love is stronger than gold, I didn't think about robbing it, and I knew I couldn't rob it."
It's just that the prince is always deep and he is always silent.
Chi Yinxu raised his head, looked at the stars in the sky, and said after a while,
"Although Mr. Gu, you can't grab it..."
"But I think you are a great person."
Gu Cong didn't speak, but his pupils subconsciously dilated a little.
"Sister-in-law is more important than your own life in your eyes."
Chi Yinxu said seriously, it seems that he has grown up a lot all of a sudden,
"You like your sister-in-law so far, but you are willing to stay with the second brother as a foil."
"It's really difficult."
"But," Chi Yinxu sat up suddenly, puffing up his cheeks, "I'm not encouraging you to rob my sister-in-law."
"My second brother's people, don't even think about it."
"If you dare to grab it, he won't chase after you."
Gu Cong laughed out loud suddenly, but he didn't dare to make it too loud for fear of waking up the little deer next to him.
Chi Yinxu looked at him with wide eyes, and now he woke up.
"You just said that I am great, and you think of me as such a villain." Gu Cong looked back at him, with a sincere smile,
"Fifth Prince feels cold, come here."
Chi Yinxu couldn't understand him, but a gust of wind suddenly entered under his robe, which made him press tightly against Gu Cong's shoulder.
Gu Cong raised his head in the direction he was looking at the stars just now, and the two people next to him were sound asleep, neither of them felt sleepy.
He gently tilted his head to Ruan Yuan's side, with his cheek against the top of his hair.
So what if you are unwilling.
After all, in this life, you have already fallen in love with that prince.
Fortunately, in this life, the prince also loves you.
---------
The door of Qi Chengdian opened, but the palace people outside scattered.
The air was filled with the smell of blood. Not long ago, the stairs that had experienced a fight were covered with unknown corpses.
When the pale emperor stepped out of the threshold, Luo Xiang had long since disappeared. Wherever he looked, he was the only calm person in the invasion of the demon army.
From the moment he knew that the enemy was Chi Jinnian, he never expected to win.
Because the hatred on that person was too cold and deep.
Chi Chengqi closed his eyes.
A child's hysterical cry came from behind him, and he gathered his wandering thoughts and pressed them heavily on the ground.
"Yao'er!"
He turned around, Seventh Princess half crawled and half walked, knelt in front of Qi Chengdian's gate, and stretched out her hand towards him.
Chi Chengqi picked up her small body, and the moment his arms were under the weight, he began to panic.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
He pressed his cheek against the girl's crying face, and let the girl wrap her arms around his neck tightly.
Except for the dazzlingly bright dragon robe, like a pair of ordinary brothers and sisters.
The Seventh Princess could not stop crying, and mixed with the footsteps and screams of the palace servants, it was extremely ear-piercing.
At this time, it began to rain again, and the rain suddenly became very heavy.
Holding the princess in his arms, the emperor stepped on puddles soaked in blood, towards the long steps in front of him.
"Protect the Emperor!"
The surrounding soldiers gathered towards them and fell again.
The human wall, which was poked open again and again and then restored, protected the young emperor and princess like this, and walked to the end of the long steps.
No one held an umbrella for him, so Chi Chengqi wiped off the rain on the princess's face with one hand, and then wiped off his own.
He lowered his gaze, and under the long steps stood the wolf in the desert.
The girl's crying stopped abruptly, and her heart trembled in a torrent.
Chi Chengqi smiled sadly, then raised his hand, his voice was earth-shattering,
"stop!"
The soldiers were frightened, but they did not let go of their weapons.
The emperor was drenched all over, and the hair on his forehead was tightly attached to the skin. He was so embarrassed, but there was an unpredictable smile on his face.
No one beat, and no one screamed in pain anymore.
In this strange silence, the emperor once again wiped the water off the girl's face, put her on the ground, and knelt down in front of her.
"Yao'er."
He gently raised his hand to caress the little girl's face, the smile on her face became more and more strange, uglier than crying.
The little girl sobbed again and again, not being frightened by him, and looked at him with wide, juicy eyes.
"sorry."
The emperor said,
"I have no choice but to grow up with you."
After the emperor finished speaking, he immediately stood up, faced the person under the long steps, and displayed his emperor's majesty for the last time, and then broke,
"Second brother, I only have one condition."
"Anyway, don't kill Seventh Princess."
The heavy rain hit the clothes of the two of them. The wolf and the canary finally decided the winner.
---------
Chi Jinnian looked at the too immature emperor with a smile on his face that everything was under control.
Scary as always.
"I didn't expect that the emperor would still call me second brother."
"I'm afraid that the emperor never recognized me as the second brother from the beginning to the end."
Princess Seven hid behind Chi Chengqi, clutching his dragon robe tightly.
Chi Chengqi put one hand on top of her head, subconsciously protecting her.
"Yes."
He raised his chin recklessly, and the eyes that fell on Chi Jinnian's face were full of unwillingness and the desolation of failure.
"I never thought of you as a brother."
"In my eyes, you have always been an opponent."
"We're at the King's House, as it should be."
Thinking of something, his eyes turned red uncontrollably in the rain, and the hand on the little girl's head also began to tremble slightly.
"I lost."
"I lost so completely."
"Imperial Concubine...Father...From the very beginning, it was your game, right?"
He looked at the man below asking for proof, and was afraid that he would say something certain.
Then he watched the man below raise his chin high, his eyes trembling with dangerous light,
"Yes."
"The man who gave up my life from the very beginning regarded you as his treasure until the end of his life."
"How does it feel to kill your biological father?"
Chi Chengqi looked at him, the rain on his face finally turned into tears.
He roared hysterically, raised his hands tremblingly, the blood of Father Ye was still flowing on them, he felt compassionate.
"what-----"
The young emperor's voice became hoarse, and the little girl behind him turned pale with fright, watching him unable to support his body in the rain, and knelt down on the ground, a column of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
And the man at the bottom of the long steps still smiled like that.
It's just that there is a little more trembling sadness in that smile.
"You are so ruthless, Chi Jinnian, Chi Jinnian——!"
"Isn't he your father, isn't he!!!"
Chi Chengqi held on to the railing of the long steps, his face deformed from hysteria.
Chi Jinnian looked at him and suddenly stopped smiling.
"Ruthless, I'm more ruthless than you think."
"You guessed it, that imperial concubine is not a human at all, but a demon."
"And I told her," he lifted his feet up the long steps, step by step, "after the matter is done, the Northern Emperor's emperor meat will be hers."
The soldiers around watched him come up, and backed away a little bit in fright, no longer desperately protecting Chi Chengqi's dragon robe.
Chi Jinnian bent down and met his desperate gaze,
"How about it, is it ruthless enough?"
Feeling the danger approaching, Chi Chengqi couldn't straighten up, his hands were shaking wildly.
The voices of the emperor's father and the empress' mother were close to his ears.
"why why…."
"Suddenly, he grabbed Chi Jinnian's collar with both hands, and the rain hit the back of his hand drop by drop, but he didn't feel it at all.
"Second brother! Why are you doing this to me!"
Chi Jinnian's pupils trembled slightly,
"I also want to know... why that man did this to me."
"You are his son."
"Me too."
After he finished speaking, he grabbed Chi Chengqi's wrist with one hand and shook his hand off mercilessly.
"Chi Chengqi," he withdrew his gaze from Chi Chengqi, stepped on the top of the long steps, and his figure stood tall in the place that belonged to the emperor,
"You've done too many wrong things."
"My wife, Luozhou City..."
He paused for a moment, and the blood on that little man's face was dazzling in his heart again.
Then he drew a sword from his waist and slammed it to the ground.
"You owe me a debt, use this to pay it off."
Chi Chengqi turned his head sideways, his gaze trembling violently, and fell on the sharp blade.
He took a deep breath, reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword, and the blade scraped against the bluestone floor, making a long, sharp sound.
"I have only one condition."
"Don't kill Seventh Princess."
With his back to Chi Jinnian, his voice was pitifully muffled in the torrential rain.
Chi Jinnian turned his back to him, and turned his face slightly to the side to meet the terrified face of the little girl.
Then he walked over, pulled the little girl into his arms involuntarily, and covered her eyes with his big hands.
The girl's screams resounded through the sky, and amidst the screams, the young emperor's blood flowed down the rain, staining the steps red.
The canary in the cage died on this rainy day.
