As the carriage headed south, Xu Chunmu was always uneasy.He didn't want to drag Chu Xie into that deep pool again, but...

He hugged the sleeping person in his arms tightly.

Although Chu Xie is sometimes fierce, he also looks heartless.But he resolutely accompanied him back to Beijing.

'Anyway, you just can't die! '

With his slender fingers, he pinned a lock of sideburns behind him. Counting the time, Xu Chunmu picked up a basket of white silk and powder that had been ground long ago, and whispered in his ear, "Axie, Axie."

Chu Xie had been running around for a few days, and now he was extremely tired, so he only groaned in a nasal voice.

"I have to change your medicine, and you will arrive in Shangjing in half a day. I will stop the carriage and change your medicine before you sleep."

Chu Xie didn't move, "It's almost done, don't change it. Let's sleep in Shangjing directly."

After entering the city, there is no such long sleep to sleep in.

Xu Chunmu shook his head, knowing that Chu Xie was like a child when he was sleepy, so he could only untie his belt and remove it for him, sprinkle the medicine powder on his back, and rewrap him with a new white silk, while flipping through it While talking, he said, "You said that I am thankless. Wouldn't it be even more thankless for you to go back to the capital with me?"

Chu Xie grunted, "I have my own plan."

"What are your plans?" Xu Chunmu asked.

"Go to Zhao's house."

Xu Chunmu was startled, and his gestures were a little heavy, Chu Xie hissed, "Don't worry, I'm going to find Zhao Xuan, not that bastard Zhao Yu."

"...Did you forget that Zhao Xuan is still pressing you every step of the way in your mourning hall?"

Chu Xie snorted, "Zhao Xuan's nature is not bad. It's a pity that he was born in the den of tigers and wolves. He is not as capable as you, and he can only drift with the tide like the duckweed on the water... Now the Zhao family has made it clear that they are in collusion with Yueshi I'm afraid that Su Ming'an's identity is not simple at all... The situation in Shangjing is too complicated, and you are too gentle to handle it. Jiang Yanchi is too radical, so it can't be done... Zhao Xuan has to start with this matter. I have to find out who Zhao Lingqu is first, and then find a way to kill him."

"..."

Xu Chunmu seemed to be getting used to Chu Xie's mouthful of dead words, as if what died was not a fresh human life.

Chu Xie is like a chess player who is determined to lose.

Not a player in the game.

"sorry."

Xu Chunmu suddenly apologized, "I was the one who rescued you from Shangjing, and now, I'm the one who brought you back again."

"I shouldn't have said that about you a few days ago. You are a sharp-tongued, Axie, it's me who speaks out of words, you..."

He breathes evenly.

Already fell asleep again.

Xu Chunmu raised his hand and gently touched the top of his head with his fingertips, "Don't worry, it will be over soon. Your Majesty will promise me... The world is uncertain, and he needs someone to completely stabilize the 22 counties in the northwest for him. You I understand what you mean, at the beginning of next year at most, when this war is over, I won’t be attached to power and return to the field. At that time..."

"us……"

Stopping his hands, he looked down at An An's sleeping face, and placed a cool kiss on the man's brow.

"... Let's get married."

When the carriage arrived at Shangjing, Xu Chunmu generously showed his pass to the city gate guards. The guards exchanged glances several times, but they could only temporarily hold the pass and said, "Xu Xiaohou, let us Go and report to His Majesty first."

Looking into the carriage again, he could vaguely see that there was another person inside, "Is there anyone else inside?"

"Ah."

Xu Chunmu said, "It's Chu's palm print."

The face of the city gate guard changed suddenly, and Xu Chunmu was a little uneasy with his eyes, and immediately grabbed him again, "What's the matter, can't he enter the city?"

"Small, the young master is serious. Just, I just need to... report to His Majesty. To be honest, the sixteen prefectures in the Middle Kingdom are almost searched. Your Majesty has been looking for Chu's palm seal..."

Xu Chunmu felt a little strange, so he asked, "Why is Your Majesty looking for him in such a hurry."

The city guard refused to say any more, as if he was afraid that he would run away, he asked him to get out of the carriage first, so that he could be resettled, sent a team to send him back to the Chu Mansion, and sent two more people to Zhao Prison immediately send a letter.

The emperor came sooner than expected.

Soon, Xu Chunmu found it incredible.

He had just tucked the quilt for Chu Xie, when he turned his head, he heard the steward say, "Your Majesty is here, do you want to avoid it for a while, Mr. Xu Xiaohou?"

Xu Chunmu thought for a while and said, "No need."

Just something to say.

The messy steps gradually approached, and a black robe appeared outside the door frame, and staggered into the room.Seeing the sleeping man clearly, Jiang Yanchi pinched the hand in his sleeve vigorously.

Only then did I confirm that this was not a dream.

He's not dead, he's alive.

After the change in Puyang, he couldn't sleep day and night, he was so afraid that when he looked back at each other on the official road, his last words became a prophecy, and heaven and man were separated forever.

Jiang Yanchi saw no one else, sitting on the edge of the bed, he reached in and felt his slender wrist, clasping his fingers together, it was a familiar and warm touch.

Only when you hold it in your hand can you feel a little real.

"Ashe..."

The new emperor's voice was full of attachment and grievance, "I..."

"I'm the emperor now."

His voice was as low as a mosquito, and he couldn't wake up the sleeping person in front of him at all.Thousands of words were choked in his throat, and in the end there was only one sentence left, "I...now, I am the emperor."

"His Majesty."

Xu Chunmu's voice woke him up, and he realized that there was another person in the room.

The guards guarding the city reported that it was indeed Xu Chunmu who sent Chu Xie back.

Jiang Yanchi put away the shattered soft light in his eyes, suppressed all his emotions, stood up quietly and asked, "You saved him."

Xu Chunmu saw that Chu Xie was highly valued by the emperor, so he didn't want to take credit at first.But now he urgently needed a bargaining chip, so he responded: "Yes, I can't watch my grandfather kill innocent people indiscriminately. I was the one who saved him outside the city gate of Puyang County..."

"Then why did you send him back after a month?"

"There were some accidents on the road, I was injured, and I really couldn't make it on the road, so..."

The new emperor's eyes moved, and he immediately turned around to look at Chu Xie's injuries, and shouted again: "Call the imperial doctor!"

Xu Chunmu looked more and more strange.Logically speaking, Jiang Yanchi has now ascended the throne as emperor, and Chu Xie is no longer needed to secure the crown prince for him.To him, Chuxie is already dispensable, why is he still so nervous.

Seeing scattered people pouring into the house, the young master of the Xu family could only sit aside and wait for this busy period to finish before talking to His Majesty about the Xu family's affairs.

However, the atmosphere became more and more strange.

Five or six imperial doctors came to check Chu Xie's pulse one by one. At the third time, Chu Xie finally woke up, opened his eyes and found that he was back in the mansion, shouting for a drink of water.

Jiang Yanchi supported him, let him lean on his arms, and fed him water himself.

He fetched another piece of silk and wiped away the water stains on the corners of his mouth.

The more Xu Chunmu looked at it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and some hazy feelings arose in his heart.

Thinking of what I heard on the official road a few days ago.

Chu Xie had a bumpy journey, and took some painkillers.The imperial doctor said that he would take a nap for about half an hour before waking up.Xu Chunmu saw how the imperial doctors treated Chu Xie without any slack, and wondered about Jiang Yanchi's intentions.

Could it be.

This little emperor to Ah Xie——

Xu Chunmu stood up abruptly, standing between Jiang Yanchi and the bed: "Your Majesty, I have something to say to you."

"I don't want to say it now, you get out of the way."

Xu Chunmu refused to budge, "It's a very important matter."

Jiang Yanchi lost his patience, "Xu Yi..." He turned to look at Xu Chunmu, "He's dead."

Xu Chunmu was shocked, and instantly felt that his whole body lost strength. He staggered two steps before he stabilized his figure: "Your Majesty...he is the Marquis of Zhen Guo. If His Majesty kills him, who will stabilize the northern border for His Majesty! Changming Army 30 Thousands of people, Northwest..."

"Xu Chunmu, you saved Ah Xie. I don't need to kill you. But Xu Yi must die." Jiang Yanchi whispered.

"Your Majesty is not afraid of the hearts of the people in the world when you kill the princes one after another." Xu Chunmu's voice was filled with anger, "Whether it's a distribution or a reduction of the title, why do you have to—"

"Xu Yi is a rebel."

Jiang Yanchi glanced at Xu Chunmu's face, "Rebelling, not punishing the nine clans is already a benevolence, why do you feel cold?"

"Rebel, who is..."

Xu Chunmu clenched his hands tightly, his face was ashen, but he didn't finish his sentence.

Jiang Yanchi knew what the unspoken words were.

Who is the rebel, His Royal Highness, isn't it you who rebelled?

yes.I am the traitor.But so what, the rules in this world are winners and losers.

are deadlocked.

Xu Chunmu heard some movement behind him, and before he could turn around, he heard Chu Xie muttering, and subconsciously pulled Xu Chunmu's sleeve: "Chunmu, give me some more water."

The eyes are blurred, slowly becoming clear.

Only then did he realize that he had returned to the Chu Mansion.

Xu Chunmu set off to pour him a glass of water, but Jiang Yanchi snatched an inch of the water before his hand touched Chu Xie.He put one hand on his shoulder to make people half-sit, and gave him another drink.

A scent of green sandalwood came to the nostrils.

"Jiang Yanchi, where is Xu Yi?"

Just as Chu Xie regained some consciousness, he immediately grabbed his sleeve, "Where is Xu Yi?"

Jiang Yanchi's eyes moved.

"killed."

"Cough...cough cough cough..." Chu Xie suddenly coughed violently as if he was choking, a blush flew across his face, "You killed him?!" His eyes subconsciously moved to Xu Chunmu's ashen skin On his face, he looked back at Jiang Yanchi, "Why did you kill him so quickly, he is the Marquis of Zhen Guo, he is the Northern Territory—"

"Chu Xie, don't you want him to die?"

Jiang Yanchi felt good for him, "Anyway, you will kill him sooner or later, why don't I kill him for you first, so as not to dirty your hands."

"I... no, I want to kill him..."

Chu Xie managed to calm his breath, and spit out a few words intermittently.

Jiang Yanchi looked puzzled, and helped him to lie down on the soft pillow.

"They are also the same enemies who ruined your family. Why can Chen Lianzhou kill them but Xu Yi can't?"

"Axie, you don't have to be afraid. No one you want to kill can escape. If you want Xu's family to be full..."

Chu Xie felt anxious and coughed even worse.Slender fingers tightly grasped Jiang Yanchi's shoulders, and tightened his clothes: "No...cough, cough...don't kill again. Jiang Yanchi, the emperor...that's not how the emperor is! The Xu family can't kill, Let them go... let me tell you..."

Jiang Yanchi's eyes grew suspicious.

Jiang Yan glanced at Xu Chunmu again from the corner of his eye, and suddenly frowned.

Things seem to be a little off.

Suspicion grew in his heart, but his tone became softer: "Okay, if you say you won't kill him, you won't kill him. Xu Changling's life is preserved. Tell me first, what happened this month, and where did you go?"
