Do not kiss the king

"What? The whole city of Luozhou?"

The astonishment in Chi Chengqi's eyes welled up and burned to the top of the boy's head.

"I asked you to find someone. I have been looking for a few months."

"I asked you to burn the bamboo forest, and the whole city was burned!"

"What's the use of you! Ah!"

The boy knelt on the ground and shook like a sieve, not daring to breathe,

"Go back to Seventh Master..."

"I don't know... there is something in the bamboo forest..."

"The brothers who went in never came out again... After the fire, few brothers came back from Luozhou City..."

"Even if they came back... they all lost their souls, saying..."

Chi Chengqi's face darkened, he glared at the boy, and yelled,

"What did you say!"

The boy was almost crying, his voice was trembling,

"Say... say there are strange things in the woods... that can eat people..."

"Fart!" Chi Chengqi waved his big sleeve, and slapped the boy on the head, "You guys are useless, just talk about strange stories!"

"If it weren't for the emperor's insanity now, I don't know what crime I will bear!"

"Get out! Get out!!!"

The boy saved his life, covered his head and crawled down.

Chi Chengqi took a deep breath to calm down, and his eyes fell on the canary in the cage.

Luozhou City always feels like there is something.

Otherwise, why did Chi Jinnian choose Luozhou at that time?

It's impossible for him to have such a temper just for a woman.

As for why Luozhou City was burned, it is not known.

He closed his eyes, anxious thoughts eroded his brain, and the eye circles unknowingly deepened a bit.

Chi Jinnian, even if you die, it's still an eyesore.

---------

Jin Lang, Jin Lang.

Ruan Yuan dreamed that he was still on that street, the crowd was still as crazy, the fire was still as raging, but he lost his white horse and the man behind him.

He yelled on the spot until blood oozed from his throat, and the man never came out again.

Jin Lang, Jin Lang...

Ruan Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, the surrounding air was still warm, and he was in an unfamiliar embrace.

He subconsciously stretched out his hand and pushed, but Gu Cong didn't hide, and was hit hard on the face by him, faintly flushed.

Ruan Yuan straightened up, saw Gu Cong's face, and before he felt guilty, he got into Chi Jinnian's inseparable face.

Without showing any apology, he stood up and ran towards the door tremblingly, grabbing the door frame of the veranda with one hand, leaning out to look at the fire in the distance.

"princess!"

Seeing him lift his foot, Gu Cong suddenly stepped forward and grabbed his arm, with rare anger in his eyes,

"This is the second floor!"

After saying that, he pulled the little boy away, and seeing his weeping face, the anger in his tone suddenly dropped,

"The princess has been shaking just now, is it cold?"

Ruan Yuan shook his head, his cheeks were covered with tears, and he pointed weakly in the direction of the fire with one hand, unable to speak.

Gu Cong pinched his weak shoulders with both hands, trying to stabilize his mind,

"My lord will come."

"The prince will save the people the princess cares about and bring them to us."

"Signal, I've put it here many times."

Ruan Yuan looked at him, his violently trembling pupils became quieter, and although the tears were still flowing, they were not so violent.

Suddenly, the sound of reining in the horse came from downstairs, which hit the heart very familiarly.

Ruan Yuan turned sideways suddenly, grasped the railing with both hands, and tried his best to see through the gaps in the leaves, and finally saw the person.

His prince was firmly protecting the little girl in his arms, with one hand hanging down, red blood dripped all the way along the direction they came from.

The young master next to him flew down, but Ruan Yuan stared blankly at the blood on the ground and sat down on the spot.

Chi Jinnian's blood was mixed with Baguio's.

Red like a knife, gouging out his eyes.

---------

Hearing the sound of going upstairs, Ruan Yuan stood up again, ran to the door in a frenzy, and watched the prince come up with one hand holding the little girl.

Blood, eyes full of blood.

The little girl's blood stained the entire lower body, and the clothes on the prince's arm were torn, and the inside was also scarlet.

Ruan Yuan's gaze flicked back and forth on the two of them in pain, and he was able to stand firm by holding on to the door frame.

Then the prince raised his eyes to meet his gaze, and the anxiety was on the verge of breaking out, setting off huge waves in the chests of both of them at the same time.

"Stop her bleeding!"

Ruan Yuan stepped aside, Chi Jinnian rushed in and put Bi Yao on the blanket, Gu Cong followed closely, but his eyes fell on his arm.

"Leave me alone, I'll handle it myself."

Chi Jinnian frowned subconsciously as he watched the little man knelt beside the little girl and held her hand.

He bumped along the way, but he already knew that bringing this maid back was to see Ruan Yuan for the last time.

But seeing that little man crying so ferociously, he still couldn't bear to tell the unavoidable fact.

The little girl's blood stained her clothes and climbed up, Gu Cong hurriedly brought gauze, but saw the little girl slightly turned her head to Ruan Yuan's side, and raised a sad smile.

"Master...Master..."

He lost so much blood that she even forgot that the young master who grew up with him has become a princess.

"you are still alive."

"My husband and I have been looking for you..."

"It's good to be alive..."

Ruan Yuan looked at her, biting his lower lip tightly, unable to fake a smile, tears streaming down his face, just shaking his head, unable to make a sound.

"princess…"

Gu Cong shouted softly, but Chi Jinnian suddenly raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

Ruan Yuan still looked at Baguio like that, as if they were the only two left in the world.

"Master, you are fine, then I..."

Baguio's eyes narrowed slightly, as if enduring great pain,

"Then my child and I will go find... to find my husband..."

Ruan Yuan grabbed her cold hand and pressed it to his face, shaking his head more and more fiercely, as if he could catch the little girl back from the gate of hell.

His lips moved weakly, saying "no" over and over again, but there was no sound at all.

Baguio opened her palms and stroked his face lightly, still smiling,

"Master, you...you don't like it, so don't... be dumb anymore..."

Tears flowed unrestrainedly to the little girl's palm, Ruan Yuan was so stimulated that he closed his eyes, crying silently, but the little girl's hand drooped little by little, and he couldn't pull it back.

"I...I'm in so much pain..."

"Husband, it also... hurts..."

When Ruan Yuan opened his eyes again, the little girl closed them.

The room fell into silence, save for the sound of one person's turbulent and trembling breathing.

The little girl's hands were completely exhausted, and Ruan Yuan's body fell down as she lowered her hands, lying on top of her, calling her name over and over in her heart, but there was no response.

The little girl who grew up with him, the little girl who entered the palace with him, and the little girl who protected him from the knife, was also afraid of pain, and also afraid of pain.

I don't know how long it was quiet like this before Gu Cong took a deep breath,

"My condolences to the princess."

"She was too stimulated and had a miscarriage and lost a lot of blood."

After speaking, he walked to Chi Jinnian's side and checked the injury of Chi Jinnian's hand.

Chi Jinnian silently put his other hand on Ruan Yuan's shoulder, and then took advantage of the situation to pull him over to lean against his chest.

A hand full of bloody smell caressed the top of the young man's hair, the words he wanted to say were choked in his throat and repeated, and finally he swallowed them down.

The people he cared about still failed to help him keep them.

-----------

Ruan Yuan didn't know how long he cried until he exhausted his last bit of strength before falling on Chi Jinnian's chest and closing his eyes.

Chi Jinnian looked at him and wiped away his tears. Gu Cong had already wrapped gauze around his arm.

"My lord." Gu Cong said in a low voice.

Chi Jinnian took a deep breath, for fear of waking up the sleeping deer,

"It's a demon, out of control."

"It's Chi Chengqi who burned the bamboo forest, and he won't stop there."

"You go to find Xiao Luo, and I will take the princess to Youtong."

Gu Cong nodded and replied in a low voice,

"My lord, Xiao Luo has been settled."

Chi Jinnian glanced at him,

"In this way, you will go to Youtong with us."

"When I'm not around, protect the princess."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Ruan You: "Ma'am, why are you here so soon?"

Baguio: "You spoiled and raised, how can you live without my care?"

Ruan You [resisting crying]: "But..."

Baguio [takes his hand]: "Don't let it go, let's go."

The figures of the two walked further and further away.

Baguio: "Before I came, I saw the young master."

Ruan You: "Really, how is he?"

Baguio: "He is alive, and he must be very happy to be with the prince."

The laughter of the two gradually disappeared between heaven and earth.
