Su Yong felt that his breathing was stagnant for a moment, and his brain stopped thinking completely. From the corner of his vision, he saw that Su He not only didn't mean to remind Chang Le, but after being surprised, he showed a mocking sneer.There was a chill in his heart.In just a few moments, he even saw the assassin's fingers trembling slightly, and he was about to let go of the bowstring!

Almost subconsciously, he pulled out the sword at his waist without hesitation, and threw it out fiercely. At the same time, he hit the hilt with his right palm, and the long sword immediately flew towards the assassin like a meteor chasing the moon.

Obviously it was his stumbling block, an obstacle to his progress.Su Yong, who came back to his senses, couldn't help but secretly smiled bitterly.He is not used to indecisive temperament, life and death without hesitation.Everyone said that he was cruel and unscrupulous, even he thought so.I thought that I didn't know when I had become the kind of person I hated the most.

— like an emperor.

Su Yong's heart is as hard as iron.Years of combat career made him forget what mercy is.Also, soft-hearted people can only bring their own kindness and be buried in the bloody battlefield. In such an environment where the jungle preys on the weak, if they want to survive, they must abandon the cumbersome compassion.

He always felt that he was no longer alone, and that he no longer had human feelings.However, now he realizes that he was wrong. Compared with Su He, he, the king of Hades who killed countless people, is more like a person!In the whole world, the only other person who moved him was his mother and concubine, and only this younger sister who had been loved by his relatives since childhood.But why did she forget all of them?But why did she forget all about it? !How could she have forgotten all the memories he regarded as salvation?

When he was young, Su He was not the only prince who was sent to be raised by his aunt's knees!

He remembered clearly that the turbulent waves, open guns and hidden arrows, and filth and abuse were all blocked by this sister for him.The mother is kind and the son is filial, the aunt's gentleness and the younger sister's understanding and cleverness, in that rare peaceful time, his heart riddled with holes, tasted peace for the only time in his life.

But why did Changle forget... Eating too much lychee can easily cause her to get angry. The emperor and empress were worried about Changle's health, and they always forbade her from eating too much.Changle was greedy when he was young, and it happened that his grandmother had a litchi tree outside the Palace of Compassion and Ning. Su He had ulterior motives and encouraged her to secretly climb the tree to pick food.Chang Le trusts Su He, so he avoids all the servants according to his method.

Afterwards, the queen couldn't find her anywhere, so she had no choice but to sue the emperor, begging him to send someone to search the palace.It was originally just a child's temper tantrum, but it abruptly caused a great commotion in the palace.

This is exactly what Su He wanted.Su Yong saw through his clumsy trick at a glance.Jun Wu joked, Su He thought that disobeying the emperor's instructions would make the emperor hate Changle from now on.The two lychee trees are two feet four feet high, and the little Changle is not four feet tall.There were no servants around to guard them, so if one of his feet slipped on the way up the tree and fell down, that would really be what Su He wanted.

That day the guards searched all over the palace, but the first to find Changle was Su Yong, an inconspicuous and humble prince.

The assassin came suddenly, except for Su and Su Yong, no one even noticed his actions.

Su Yong clenched his fists tightly, never feeling so regretful in his heart, the only thing he could do was to remind loudly: "Changle! Be careful!"

Everyone was startled by this sound, Chang Le raised his head to look at him blankly, and followed his gaze, only then did he see the arrow that was coming straight towards his chest.

"If one day, the second elder brother ascends the throne as the emperor, will Changle's life be spared?"

Even Su Yong is on the verge of despair, it is simply, impossible to avoid it!

Why did he avoid her question that day?He actually didn't want her to die at all!He should tell her categorically: even the second elder brother ascended the throne as the emperor, and he will also be Changle's second elder brother for the rest of his life!Changle is the treasure that the second brother regards as his own life. Whatever Changle wants, the second brother will get it for you.

Under the lychee tree that day, he managed to find that fragile and delicate little doll, but was frightened out of his wits by her position.The child heard footsteps, poked out a small head and looked down.Seeing that it was him, not those vicious guards, her nervous expression turned into a smile, and she happily called out to him in a childlike voice: "Second brother, lychees, eat."

This situation and scene replayed in my mind countless times in the days to come.Become the deepest memory hidden in his mind.But at that time, he didn't have the intention to pay attention to her. He just watched her clumsily walking in fear, and couldn't help scolding her loudly.

Xiao Changle blinked, and the eye sockets gradually turned red.Until he carefully climbed up the treetop and carried her down from the tree, she turned her head away and didn't say a word to him.

Then the emperor came and was furious.Thinking that he brought her here, she rewarded him with a meal.

He was full of grievances, and he returned to the dilapidated bedroom alone with scars.The emperor's differential treatment was too chilling, he cared so much for Chang Le, and when he came to him, he didn't even have a healing ointment.After sleeping on the simple plank bed, I don't feel pain in my joints.

However, the most uncomfortable thing was Xiao Changle's indifferent attitude.

The young man couldn't help closing his eyes, only feeling that his eye sockets were sore.The pain was everywhere in his body, and he carefully changed his position to avoid touching the wound.His fingers accidentally touched the sleeve pocket, and he felt blocked by a hard object.

The boy was taken aback, and reached out his hand to grope in the sleeve pocket for a while, when he stretched out again, there were five round lychees in his palm.

No more, no less, exactly five.When he went down with Chang Le on his back, she secretly let him in, right?Not only he has it, everyone should have it too.

"Aye, Aniang, second brother, third brother, and Changle." The emperor didn't even look at the special pastries that were tributed from the south. With a wave of his hand, the servants knew to send all the things to Changle.Changle often divides things into five portions, and each portion contains exactly the same number of snacks, and they are treated equally.After finishing the division, she made a serious look, separated her five fingers, and clenched them into fists again, saying, "One family!" At the same time, she nodded heavily.

The boy curled up slowly, he tried his best to raise his chin and head, but a drop of tear suddenly fell down.

Family, lol.

Changle is his family, but he is not their family.

Such a short distance, almost when Changle saw the arrow and the assassin, it had already reached her eyes.With no time to react, Chang Le involuntarily opened his eyes wide.

"—chuck"

The first thing that caught everyone's ears was the muffled sound of the sharp weapon cutting through the flesh, and then the scarlet color that caught the eye was so bright and extraordinary that it only made these frail wives and ladies scream out loud.

Chang Le was stunned.She frowned slightly, slightly lowered her head to look at the wound on her left arm, and quickly turned her eyes away, her eyes fixed on the dead assassin.

The assassin's heart was pierced with her second brother's sharp sword, and the way of killing him with one blow was crisp and neat, and he knew it was a habitual move at the first sight.But although that blow was fierce, the real deadly part was not here, but in the throat.The assassin's entire neck, even the trachea, was sliced ​​open by a flying knife from nowhere, and the gushing blood immediately stained the thick ground red.As the assassin's body fell heavily, the head, which was connected by the pitiful thin layer of flesh, rolled out.

From the assassin's sudden violent rise, to Su Yong's loud reminder when he noticed the abnormality, to the end of the drama where the assassin's desperate blow was deflected and he had to be unwilling to die, all these changes happened in just a moment.The onlookers are still in a daze until now.

Although the assassin was dead, the arrow had not been weakened in the slightest because it had already been fired.This arrow is aiming at the vital point of Chang Le, if it really hits, I am afraid that today's happy event will immediately turn into a mourning event.

Who helped secretly and missed the arrow?Chang Le is not alone in thinking about this issue.

The strength of the arrow was reduced a lot in the middle, and it also lost its aim. It came aggressively, but it only left a deep but not fatal scar on Changle's left arm.The wound looked terrifying, but at most it was just blood loss, and it didn't do much harm to the body.

"Blood, a lot of blood. Your Royal Highness, you are bleeding!" A noble girl couldn't help screaming.

These words seemed to wake everyone up from their trance, Empress Qi's whole body shook violently, as if her soul had just returned.She was already not far from Chang Le, and at this moment she hurriedly held her arm, tears streaming down her face immediately.Her face was pale, and she called out in surprise and anxiety: "My son, my Changle, are you in pain? Does it hurt?! Why is there so much blood? Auntie will give you medicine, Changle, don't be afraid, A Niang will call you the imperial doctor. Where is the imperial doctor? Why haven’t you seen the imperial doctor?? Your Majesty, I beg you, I beg you, hurry up and call the imperial doctors over—”

The emperor's face was gloomy, and he was annoyed not only by the queen's loss of composure in front of so many courtiers, but also by the wave after wave of assassins who didn't know what to do.But at this moment, the assassins haven't been able to fully grasp it, and the queen can't reprimand him for fear of the royal family's face.In addition, he was also worried about Changle's injury in his heart, with mixed emotions in his heart. Hearing the Queen's mention at this moment, he immediately poured out all his anger on the unfortunate servants.

Li De, the commander of the guards who had just arrived, was scolded head-on and face-to-face.He is very good at being a man, and has always had a good relationship with the ministers in the court and China.However, at this time the emperor was furious, and all the ministers knelt on the ground silently, and no one dared to say a word of intercession.

When the emperor's breath finally came out, Li De's head was full of cold sweat and he didn't have time to wipe it off, so he hurriedly obeyed the order and rushed to the palace to ask for the imperial doctor.Originally, in his capacity, he should honestly stay by Emperor Jing's side at this time.Otherwise, if this group of daring assassins did anything else, even ten heads would not be enough for him.But as the emperor's confidant, he is very clear about Princess Changle's position in the emperor's heart.If he randomly assigns a subordinate to go there, there is no guarantee that the resentful emperor will not think that he is perfunctory and take his anger out on him.If he was convicted because of this, he would be more wronged than Dou E.
