Chapter 150 At least now I have Ayi
Yongguo Palace, Xiangfei's bedroom.

Xiao Yan couldn't remember how long he hadn't recalled the past, but when he really dreamed about these things again, he realized that he had never forgotten them.

"I have heard that since you came back from the Queen's Palace a few days ago, you have not eaten or drunk. Xiao Yan, are you forcing me?"

Wei Rudai asked the boy sternly, her eyes as clear as glazed glass were as cold as frost and snow, showing no warmth at all.

"I didn't force you..." The boy raised his head, his pale face was tense, tears accumulated in his eyes but did not fall, and he stubbornly looked at Wei Rudai, "Mother, if I am well, you will come to see me ?"

Wei Rudai was taken aback for a moment, then quickly turned her face away, and said in a cold voice: "How can such a mother-in-law become a great talent? If you like Li Shi so much, you might as well recognize her as your mother. Anyway, she has no children, and she usually Ri treats you well."

Xiao Yan saw a plate of pastries on the table from the corner of his eye, and quickly looked away.

He knew that Concubine Mu was not someone who would feed him snacks, even if she hadn't eaten for several days.

Xiao Yan tugged Wei Rudai's sleeve lightly, and said: "Mother concubine is wrong, empress empress is pregnant, and she is still a little brother."

"What!" Wei Rudai's expression changed in shock, "She is pregnant? How is it possible, His Majesty clearly promised me..."

"Father said that he would pass on his throne to his younger brother. Concubine mother, is it because I am not good enough or because I am a monster that he doesn't like me... Can you tell Father, I I will definitely take the medicine obediently, and I will never complain of pain again, and I will never cry again."

"Take... medicine?"

Wei Rudai asked back.

The boy didn't notice anything unusual, he had followed Empress Li's suggestion and revealed to Wei Rudai that Xiao Ji'an said that she wanted to make the child in her womb a prince.

He just used this to test the feelings of his mother and concubine again, like a plant growing in the dark, seeking a little sunshine by instinct.

However, Wei Rudai didn't respond later.

At that time, he felt that Wei Rudai didn't care about these at all.

But in the dream, he possessed the young Xiao Yan, but suddenly discovered that she had been stunned for so long after hearing what he said at that time.

He was about to carefully discern the emotion in Wei Rudai's eyes, when his eyes flickered, he saw Xiao Jixing covered in blood at the door of Empress Li's bedroom, holding the empress' body and crying to the sky.

"Wan'er, why, why!"

On this day, the third prince Xiao Jixing led the rebel army to rush into the palace, killing his brother and usurping the throne, but the first place he went after entering the palace was the palace of Queen Li Wan.

However, he was still late.

The queen, who was seven months pregnant, had already died twice.

The boy suddenly understood something, took a few steps back in horror, and started to run wildly.

Xiao Yan, who had already experienced all this, was ready, staring at everything around him like an outsider.

After a while, he rushed to the emperor's palace. Xiao Ji'an had already been pierced by thousands of arrows from Xiao Jixing's rebels, and there was a sharp short sword stuck in his chest.

The man could not rest in peace, his eyes were wide open, and he collapsed on his dragon chair on his back, staring unwillingly at a landscape painting above his head that asked for immortality.

In his hand, he was still holding a elixir smelted with Xiao Yan's blood.

Xiao Ji'an probably thought that if he was poisoned, he could still be detoxified. However, he was pierced by thousands of arrows, even if the gods came, they couldn't save him.

Xiao Yan felt sick in his heart, but the young self he possessed was already crying.

"Father, mother, mother concubine..." The boy knelt down on the ground, looked at Xiao Ji'an's side, and called out in grief.

——Wei Rudai, who was wearing a red dress, was also hit by several arrows, and knelt quietly on Xiao Ji'an's knee, already breathless.

From this point of view, they seem to be such a loving couple who live and die together.

"Isn't this Mr. Yan, catch him!"

The boy cried for a long time until the rebels wanted to catch him. With red eyes, he broke free from the restraints of the two eunuchs and ran back to Xiao Jixing.

Xiao Jixing was still holding Queen Li's body in tears, but he didn't know when he put on a dragon robe for himself.

The subordinate next to him changed his address with winking eyes, and persuaded him: "Your Majesty, after the first emperor found us, he immediately ordered to kill Empress Li. The child in her belly is seven months old. It's a pity... Please mourn, Your Majesty. Your Majesty cheers up..."

The man Xiao Yan used to call Uncle Sanhuang raised his head angrily:

"My condolences? How can I express my condolences? This king can't wait to eat his flesh! This is his child. Didn't he say that he loves Wan'er very much? Why, why?! How can he bear it?!"

Xiao Yan slowly walked in front of Xiao Jixing, and asked with hatred in his immature voice: "Then how can the third uncle have the heart to kill the king, kill his sister-in-law, and seek to usurp the throne?"

Hearing this voice, Xiao Jixing turned his head and looked at Xiao Yan who was just a child.

After a while, he put down Empress Li, stepped forward, grabbed the child by the collar and lifted her up: "Little brat, what do you know!"

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, please calm down. The late Emperor's sudden death is full of doubts. Young Master Yan's life will be saved for the time being. Besides, this child, he grew up in the Beast Garden..." A rebel said hastily.

Xiao Jixing thought of something, threw Xiao Yan to the ground like a hot potato, and roared through gritted teeth:

"What do you, a young child, know? Back then, this king and Wan'er were childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts, and it was time to discuss marriage. It was Xiao Ji'an, this king's good brother, His Royal Highness, who insisted on interfering. Forced to marry Wan'er as the Crown Princess!"

He said, recalling the events of that year, his eyes became more scarlet.

"Xiao Ji'an married Wan'er only for Wan'er's good reputation. He didn't love Wan'er at all, but he threatened Wan'er and this king with the lives of the entire Li family just for the sake of reputation! Then, he had Wan'er. How long has it been since I was a child, and I have abandoned it like a pot, and as a prince, I want to dote on a person from the world, Wei Rudai, is she worthy of competing with Wan'er for favor? !
Xiao Ji'an, he doesn't love anyone, he...do you think he loves you?You are his only prince, but he has never made you the prince, right? Besides, this king also finds it ridiculous. Why would he and Wei Rudai throw their own son into the beast garden? "

Thinking of Xiao Yan's experience, Xiao Jixing's sad, angry and painful face finally eased a little.

The fact that the emperor and concubine Xiang threw Prince Yan into the beast garden was known to everyone inside and outside the palace, and everyone was surprised.

He lost the woman he once loved deeply, but this little brat was even worse. From the beginning to the end, he got nothing.

"Xiao Ji'an has been researching some secret techniques of immortality all day long. Xunxian asked and summoned so many folk genius doctors. Since he is so stupid, why can't this king replace him? Isn't he immortal? Now, he is dead, and he will never die!"

The young Xiao Yan tried his best to understand what Xiao Jixing said. He didn't know how to refute. After a long time, he wiped the tears from his face and said sharply:
"No matter what, you are an unrighteous person who murdered the king and brother. The emperor studied medicine because you have evil intentions. You have been sending people to assassinate me and Wei Rudai all these years!"

At that time, although he had been tortured by Xiao Ji'an all the time, even though he had understood the nature of that man in his heart, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Father should love him, he gave himself those bitter medicines to save himself;
Even if he became an invulnerable monster because of this, at least he survived;

As a mother, Wei Rudai hates herself so much, even fears herself, but the emperor will comfort him;
Even if the emperor sometimes needed his blood, he wanted to save the guards who were poisoned by assassins to protect him.

He has many wounds on his body, but if there are many wounds, it doesn't hurt anymore...

He gently touched the protruding and scabbed wound on his arm. The last time Father took blood was more than ten days ago, and his wound was almost healed.

Xiao Jixing was stunned when he heard the boy's words.

He looked down at Xiao Yan, and after a while, he laughed maniacally: "Xiao Ji'an actually told you that, yes, you are only eight years old."

"It's okay to tell you, this king decided to fight for this position because Wan'er wrote to this king a few months ago, saying that he could no longer bear Xiao Ji'an, and your other uncles, as far as this king knows, they don't care about the throne at all. No interest. These years, where did someone assassinate you?"

Xiao Jixing's words were like a heavy hammer hitting the boy's heart.

Xiao Jixing continued: "Even if this king wants to kill, he will kill Xiao Ji'an. How could he assassinate you for no reason? Could it be that if you kill you, Xiao Ji'an will really make me the emperor's younger brother? This is really the most ridiculous thing this king has heard today. joke!
This king understands, just like they threw you into the beast garden, did your father, mother and concubine want you to become some kind of martial arts prodigy, number one in the world?Ha ha ha ha. "

As he spoke, he took the forged imperial decree from one of his subordinates, and showed it in front of Xiao Yan without hesitation.

Xiao Yan had already bit his lip and tasted the taste of blood.

He couldn't tell about his own blood, but fortunately, this incident was so unbelievable that Xiao Jixing didn't suspect anything.

"Oh, this king was wrong. The emperor brother did make me the emperor's younger brother. From today on, I will be the emperor of Yong Kingdom."

Xiao Yan stumbled back, throwing everyone away, like an arrow leaving the string, and returned to the dark room he was most familiar with.

In that underground room, only the cross stake in the middle and the blood-stained chain remained. The boy tore off the chain and threw it away. He found a machete in the corner and chopped off the stake.

After doing this, he turned the mechanism.

The outside of this room is the place where the emperor used to "cure and detoxify" himself, and the inside is a dungeon.

——He remembered that there were several assassins who came to assassinate him and were caught by his father. His father said that he would interrogate them carefully and try to eradicate them.

As soon as the mechanism was turned on, Xiao Yan couldn't help retching.

There was no one alive in the dungeon. Seven or eight men in black fell to the ground in a haphazard manner. They were shot into sieves by sharp arrows from all directions, and the thick blood had gathered into pools of blood.

They died not long ago, and they died very unwillingly.

Xiao Yan understood in an instant that they were silenced by his father when he found out that Xiao Jixing had attacked the palace and that he was doomed.

He squatted down, picked up a black token in the pool of blood, and at the same time, peeled away the face of the corpse closest to him.

The token is worn by the secret guards under the father;
The corpse was an eunuch most trusted by the emperor.

Eight-year-old Xiao Yan understood everything that happened to him.

For a long time, he has been sending assassins one after another to assassinate him;
It caused him to be injured all over, and he was poisoned by various people every day;

The person who made him drink one cup after another of bitter medicine and turned into a monster invulnerable to all poisons was his father, Xiao Ji'an.

Revisiting the memories of his childhood again, Xiao Yan felt that he was ready, but when he saw the token, he still had a headache.

"I... at least the current me, I have a meaning."

He muttered to himself, feeling as if there was a transparent shadow hugging him gently, the faint fragrance of pear blossoms, as if Chu Yi was in his dream, right beside him.

The slightly cool pear blossom fragrance slowly calmed his spirit.

The boy Xiao Yan searched in the pool of blood and only found this token.

Before leaving, he lit a fire, which burned the entire room and dungeon to ashes.

Taking advantage of the chaos when the rebels were whitewashing the peace and the emperor died, Xiao Yan returned to the palace and opened the scroll of landscape paintings that Xiao Ji'an had been staring at before he died.

Under the picture scroll, there is a thick record of Xiao Ji'an.

He has always dreamed of using his blood to achieve immortality.

It turned out that he worked hard to reach the end of the road, and there was really no light.

Later, Xiao Yan met the only little girl who extended a helping hand to him in the frozen lake, and in the bustling and blooming Shangjing City in spring, he saw the girl who was destined for life at a glance.

His past was dark, so he could only chase the moon in the sky, and tried his best to give her a bright future.

……

"Chu Yi, you are not allowed to die, this king will not allow you to die!"

In the dream, the four seasons reincarnated, spring went and autumn came, and when Xiao Yan came back to his senses again, what appeared in front of him was a scene that made his eyes tear.

Why is this happening?

Why is the person who was able to quarrel with him just now lying on the ground?
He was already ready to lose her, but not now.

"Ayi, please don't die... Can you wake up? Please..."

My own voice in my ear, roaring, suffering, humbled into the dust.

Xiao Yan stared at the breathless woman on the ground, that delicate and beautiful face was much thinner than now, without the slightest color of blood, and her body seemed to be so thin that only a pair of bones remained.

Like a cuckoo weeping blood, she died in the small courtyard in autumn.

His moon, fell.

"Ayi!"

His mournful call coincided with the man kneeling on the ground, holding the corpse.

Xiao Yan suddenly opened his eyes.

The dream and the reality merged into one in an instant, and he saw his Ah Yi leaning on the seat in front of him, his eyes closed, his face remained the same, one hand was still resting on the edge of the bed, and his breathing was soft and gentle.

There was a faint scent of pear blossoms in the air, which was the smell of Chu Yi's body, and it drowned his heart in an instant.

Everything around him was unimportant, Xiao Yan saw her taking a nap next to him safe and sound, and suddenly understood the meaning of the words "time is quiet and good".

Perhaps because of feeling something, Chu Yi's eyelids moved, and she slowly opened her eyes.

A tear fell from the corner of her eye.

She had a long, long dream.
