Su Yulie lifted the curtain, strode up and grabbed the arm of the person in front of him, and dragged him away without saying a word.

Gao Zhao flicked it vigorously, and Su Yulie's hand was empty, leaving only a piece of sad air at the fingertips.

Gao Zhao watched him turn his head and stare at himself. At first glance, it was an order, but when he looked carefully, it was a plea.The blood vessel twitched, and the scorching blood froze instantly.

"Azhao, what kind of place is this, how can I keep you here."

The expression on Su Yulie's face was extremely painful, as if he was suffering a lot at the moment, "That Chi Jinnian can put a knife on your neck at any time, you let me... why go alone."

Gao Zhao stepped forward and squeezed his hand, with an unshakable belief rolling in his eyes,

"He won't kill me. He needs people who can cooperate with the inside and outside, and you need soldiers who can break through the palace wall."

"Only if I stay, can you get revenge as you wish."

Su Yulie's pupils trembled, and he paused for a while, before raising his eyes again to meet Gao Zhao's gaze,

"Azhao, if I don't avenge this revenge, will you go with me?"

"Sooner or later the Northern Emperor will send troops, and the Southern Emperor will perish sooner or later. As for whether I killed it or not, what difference does it make?"

Gao Zhao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand and pushed it on Su Yulie's shoulder,

"It's not easy for us to get to where we are today. If you say you don't report it, you won't report it."

"Liu's one hundred lives, the lives of ten thousand elite soldiers in your palace, and the lives of your own father, what are they worth?"

He took another step forward and grabbed Su Yulie's collar tightly, his eyes filled with heat, "You haven't seen the last side of the prince, so you should pretend you didn't see what was written in his letter!"

"Su Yulie, if you don't avenge this with your own hands, you and I will regret it for the rest of our lives, believe it or not."

Su Yulie's breathing stagnated, and he felt a thousand kinds of pain and depression hit his heart, faintly setting off a dark ripple.

"But Ah Zhao..." Su Yulie lowered his head, two tears fell instantly, and both hands tightly grabbed the clothes on Gao Zhao's shoulders, "I have no one else but you."

"I don't want anything, it doesn't matter if all my previous efforts are wasted, I really can't lose you anymore."

The corner of Gao Zhao's mouth turned down, his brows frowned, his nose turned sore, he stretched out his arms to wrap around the man's waist, resting his chin on his shoulder, his tone was filled with tenderness immediately,

"Master Su, I'll be fine, trust me."

Su Yulie shook his head stubbornly, his eyes were red,

"Azhao, how can you go with me?"

Gao Zhao patted his back lightly,

"I'll go with you when you kill the head of the Southern Emperor, when you finish avenging your family."

"The ends of the earth, nowhere to go."

There was a whimper in the air, and it was hysterical and sad to the point of heartbreak.

Then Gao Zhao watched his young master turn around, ride on the black horse tied under the poplar tree, and make a series of hoofprints on the desert.

In front of him is Huang Shaman, and behind him is Liren Yang.

Gao Zhao stood on the spot and watched him go away step by step, with the anxiety in his eyes chasing and chasing along the air, but he couldn't catch up.

Until his figure disappeared into the yellow sand, his young master never looked back.

Because they all understand that once they look back, the arms that have been built with great difficulty in each other's hearts will collapse.

Who wants to stay alone, and who wants to go alone.

--------

"It's good to get rid of people's worries."

Chi Jinnian didn't know when he stood behind, Gao Zhao turned around, and saw that there was a little bit of confusion on his face.

"Mr. Gao is very scheming. I, Chi Jinnian, think that I have a vicious eye for people, but I never thought that I still can't beat Mr. Gao."

As Chi Jinnian said, he put a hand on Gao Zhao's shoulder in a gentle manner, his eyes dim,

"I thought it was an unruly kitten, but it turned out to be a tiger, which knocked out a big tooth of mine. Mr. Gao, how are you going to compensate me?"

Gao Zhao said in a deep voice, "If you want to be beaten, you will be punished. There is absolutely no complaint."

"I just ask the second prince to save my life, don't break my promise."

"Hahaha, good." Chi Jinnian laughed heartily, hooked his fingers at the lieutenant at the side, and dimmed his eyes, "First draw fifty whips, Mr. Gao is very skilled in martial arts, so he must be able to hold it."

"It doesn't matter if you can't hold on. My best military doctor is on call at any time. Even if Mr. Gao steps half a foot into the Palace of the King of Hades, I will pull you back."

"Thank you, Second Prince, Gao Zhao takes orders."

--------

Liu Siye dismounted, and immediately a soldier came to hold him. He pursed his lips and walked to Chi Jinnian's tent, another soldier announced, "Mr. Liu is here."

"Let him in."

Chi Jinnian's deep voice came through the curtain, and when the curtain was lifted, he raised his eyes and saw the smiling face from afar.

"You're back. Things are going well."

Chi Jinnian stood up, helped up Liu Siye who was saluting, looked at him a little, frowned and said,

"Why did you lose weight again?"

"Going back to the Second Prince, maybe I'm overthinking it." Liu Siye replied lightly, without any expression on his face.

When he came to Youtong before, he always had a polite smile on his face, but now this smile is hard to see.

Chi Jinnian's heart sank slightly, "If there is nothing else going on, stay with me in Youtong."

"Follow me to conquer Huajing at that time, and I will not treat you badly if you want to stay there or go anywhere in the future."

"I appreciate the second prince's kindness." Liu Siye lowered his head slightly, "I have completed the task assigned by the second prince, and now I just want to find a quiet place to wait for the day when the head of the Southern Emperor falls."

"At that time, I can take Su Yulie's head."

Chi Jinnian frowned, "What about after that?"

"Let's talk about the future." Liu Siyao cupped his hands and took a step back, "The minister has returned to his life, and the second prince will leave before he has an order."

"It's up to you." Chi Jinnian watched him walk out of the tent, sighed softly, and finally didn't say the words to keep him.

Liu Siye got out of the tent, and slowly untied the horse rope wrapped around the post with one hand, his eyes fell on a man in white clothes not far away, and he lost his soul instantly.

He stared blankly at the ponytail of the boy in white fluttering in the wind, and at the countless ferocious bloodstains on his clothes, as soon as he felt grief welling up in his throat, he almost suffocated on the spot.

It was Gao Zhao, he couldn't admit his mistake.

"Why is Mr. Gao here?" Liu Siye grabbed the arm of a passing soldier, the spirit in his eyes revived.

"Oh, the second prince asked him to be a hostage to threaten King Cheng." The soldier shrugged indifferently, "We don't need to watch, anyway, he stayed voluntarily and won't run away."

Liu Siye's pupils trembled, and he said in a dumb voice, "Then who did the injury on his body?"

After that, he smiled helplessly.

Who else could.

"Good fight."

He let go of the guard's arm, and his eyes were glued to the man's tattered and blood-oozing clothes. As he said this, his heart was whipped, and there were several openings in an instant.

Is it really worth it for that person?

Gao Zhao, you are still so stupid, pitifully stupid, so stupid... I can't hate it, and I can't love it.

Liu Siye clenched his fists and stood there for a while, finally took out a piece of clothing from his bag and handed it to the soldier beside the fence.

"Put it on for Mr. Gao, he can't wear it anymore."

"Don't say I gave it to you, you just pretend that I haven't been here."

The soldier nodded and took the clothes, Liu Siye got on the horse, kicked the horse's belly and walked a few meters, his heart felt as if it was fried by fire, tears flowed more violently than anyone else, but he insisted on not turning his head back.

Only now did he understand that people all over the world were in Shijiang.

It's just that when he saw that person today, he had to use his own body to accompany that person to suffer twice.

-------

"Has he left?" Chi Jinnian asked as he looked at the thick curtain.

"Back to Second Prince, I've already left." The soldier beside the tent replied.

Chi Jinnian smiled sadly. He didn't know where the end of his eyes fell. He took a sip from the flagon and murmured,

"He's not used to riding in a carriage now."

"It's been a long time, and I haven't heard the sound of his wheels."

-------

"Master Gao, your letter."

The curtain was lifted, and a ray of light came in through the gap. Gao Zhao's eyes lit up, and he walked over to pick up the crumpled letter in three steps at a time.

Just as he was about to tear it down, the lowered curtain was lifted again. Gao Zhao raised his eyes, facing Shangchi Jinnian's smiling face.

"Master Gao, I heard that the injury is almost healed."

"Are you interested in going out with me?"

Gao Zhao stuffed the letter into his sleeve, with no expression on his face, "The second prince said to go, then go."

Chi Jinnian raised the corners of his mouth a little arrogantly, "This time I see you again, Mr. Gao, and you have been obedient a lot."

"It's just that I know very well that what is hidden in your bones will always be a tiger."

As soon as he put down the curtain, Gao Zhao's vision dimmed a lot, and Chi Jinnian's voice came through the curtain,

"Master Gao, please."

Gao Zhao's pupils moved slightly, and then he opened the curtain and walked out.

One person and one horse rode along the long yellow sand to the high stone wall unknowingly, and there was a lone Populus euphratica on the top of the stone wall.

When Gao Zhao saw the Populus euphratica, his brain trembled, and the back of Su Yulie who left that day broke into his heart again, bringing out unbearable longing.

Chi Jinnian got off the horse first, tied it to the Populus euphratica, turned his back to Gao Zhao, and looked at the barracks and the endless yellow sand under the stone wall.

"The second prince, why don't you come out alone with me?" Gao Zhao also got off the horse, imitating Chi Jinnian to tie the horse to the Populus euphratica, looking at his back quietly, his throat moved.

"Haha, why don't you worry." Chi Jinnian laughed, and turned to meet Gao Zhao's gaze, "You want to kill me, but you can't do it."

"And even for King Cheng, you wouldn't do it."

"Hold on to King Cheng, even if you hold on to you, it's the same on King Cheng's side."

Gao Zhao walked to Chi Jinnian's side, and glanced lightly at the yellow sand swept up by the wind, the arrogant arrogance in his eyes was replaced by a certain kind of forbearance and maturity.

"The second prince called me here to chat."

"Can't you?" Chi Jinnian turned sideways to Gao Zhao, "Actually, I really like you."

"You are a talent, calm, brave, and most importantly, loyal."

He sighed slightly, and put his hands behind his back, "It's a pity that I, a person who loves talent so much, saw it, but I couldn't use it."

"Also," Chi Jinnian raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "I also envy you and Prince Cheng."

"No matter what kind of relationship you have, it's not easy for two people to be of the same mind."

After finishing speaking, his gaze swept Gao Zhao's sleeve leisurely, "Prince Cheng often reads and writes to you when he is away, Mr. Gao, you have to tell him that he is safe."

"Otherwise he will come to cut off my head after traveling thousands of miles."

Gao Zhao glanced at his sleeve, and Chi Jinnian patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "I'm going back."

"I will lend you this stone wall and this Populus euphratica to read."

Then he boldly got on his horse, raised his hooves and left.

Gao Zhao glanced at him in confusion, sat down under the Populus euphratica, took out the letter paper from his sleeve, and unfolded it. When he saw the first line of familiar titles, his nose felt sore.

Ah Zhao.

You are well.

Su Yulie's voice was carried by the wind, together with the leaves on the Populus euphratica, they swirled around his ears and blew straight to his heart.

Mr. Su, if you are well, I will be well.
