Gaoyuelou stepped up the stone steps, walked through the flower corridor, and saw the emperor standing alone by the lake from a distance, seeing himself coming, he smiled brightly.

Gao Yuelou quickened his pace, stepped forward and raised his robe to salute, the emperor rushed to help him.The wind was a bit chilly, the emperor couldn't help but coughed a few times, tried his best to smile and said: "It's just the two of us, don't do these vain rituals." Gao Yuelou nodded in gratitude.

The emperor's eyes dimmed, then he opened both hands, turned around, looked at Gao Yuelou again and said with a smile: "Look at the clothes I'm wearing today, how nice are you?"

Gao Yuelou looked at the emperor in green clothes, but he couldn't find any trace of the youth in green clothes.Gao Yuelou looked at him expressionlessly, and said indifferently: "Your Majesty is like a dragon and a phoenix among people, and the posture of a celestial being..."

The emperor interrupted him with a wave of his hand, coughed alone for a while, covered his heart, calmed down for a while, and then showed a pale smile, "A Zhuo, do you still remember the scene we first saw?"

"Chen, I don't remember."

The wind was getting stronger, blowing the clothes of the two of them fluttering. The emperor looked at Gao Yuelou and said in a low voice: "At that time, you were the prince's companion, and I made up my mind to snatch you over. Well, I did it." He stretched out his hand to hold Gao Yuelou's hand, but he dodged it without a trace.

Gao Yuelou stood there straight, with a look of pity in his eyes, as if he was looking at something ridiculous.

The emperor has become more and more hostile over the years, and he has never tried so hard to please someone, and in addition, he has been used to saying the same thing all these years.Seeing Gao Yuelou's indifferent expression now, the anger in his heart was even worse, and thinking of what the Gao family had done, he was impulsive, grabbed him, grabbed his hand tightly, and said angrily: "Can't you see my heart?" It was the Gao family’s vain attempt to turn the world upside down and help restore the deposed prince! I appointed your sister as the queen, made your father a prince with a different surname, and gave the Gao family the highest honor, so that the Gao family can wake up. But your father insisted on doing it his own way! If I don't kill them, I will die today! Not only me, A Li will die too! He is only seven years old, but his grandpa took him as a hostage! He used it to threaten me." The emperor's hands trembled angrily, his face livid , The heartbeat was so fast that I couldn't bear it.He coughed violently, and in a moment of anger, he spit out a mouthful of blood, his legs softened, and he fell to his knees on the ground.

Gao Yuelou hurriedly hugged him in his arms, silently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief.

The emperor looked up at him, but saw that his eyes were bloodshot, his face was tired, and his anger was extinguished.He put his hand on his cheek and buried his face in his arms.The emperor said in a muffled voice: "I regret it too, and I don't want to ruin your family. You are the most cherished person in my heart. How can I be willing to hurt you?" Yuelou hugged him silently, with mixed feelings in her heart.

The emperor raised his head, knelt down opposite Gaoyuelou, looked at him sadly, tears fell drop by drop, Gaoyuelou wiped the tears from his cheeks with his sleeve, but the tears were like broken beads, Fall down one by one.

The emperor held his hand and said in a mournful voice: "Ah Zhuo, Jing Ting and I killed the fourth prince and forced the eldest princess to get married in order to preserve my throne, I believe. I can actually keep the Gao family alive, but I But killed them, I also admit it. If you want to leave the palace, I am afraid that you will marry a wife and have children, and I will castrate you to avoid future troubles. I also admit it. I hate you for trying to get out of my control and trying to make it difficult for you. These years , my heart is also boiled in purgatory, and I, too, have a hard time."

Gao Yuelou saw that his eyes were red and he shed more tears than when he ate cakes that year, he couldn't bear it.Seeing that he was still ill, his thin cheeks were sunken severely, his eyes were black and blue, his face was gray, like a wandering soul with nowhere to go, his heart was throbbing with pain.

But when he thought of the Gao family and his sister who died in vain, he couldn't help but sneered and said, "It's hard for Your Majesty, thinking about the thoughts of a useless person like this, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and everything he does is justified." Gao Yuelou let go of his hands and stood up. Looking at the emperor with a haughty look on his face, he whispered in his ear: "But your majesty is having a good time, what does it have to do with my minister?"

The emperor stared blankly at him, and after a while, wiped away his tears fiercely, untied his belt with trembling fingers, pulled off his clothes, revealing his undulating chest, pulled off the hairpin on his head, and offered it to Gao Yuelou with both hands. .Jue Jue said: "Since you hate me so much, then kill me with your own hands today."

Gao Yuelou looked at the hairpin in his hand, his heart was agitated, he couldn't help taking a step back, and laughed, the laughter was miserable and miserable.He bent down, looked at the emperor with cold eyes and said: "Your Majesty is really good at planning. When it's over, you don't forget to plot against me. Want to get rid of this high-ranking and powerful waste for the crown prince? At this moment, everyone knows that I am alone. Seeing Your Majesty, if I do this, I will kill the emperor!" He forcefully knocked off the golden hairpin from the emperor's hand, and roughly pulled the emperor's clothes back.With a ruthless expression on his face, he stared at a pair of eyes, and said ruthlessly: "I won't be fooled, because I don't want to die, this country is no longer worthy of my blood."

Gao Yuelou glanced at him, but when he turned around, his face was covered with wind and frost.

The emperor covered his heart, grabbed a piece of his clothes, looked at his cold back and argued: "I didn't, Ah Zhuo, I can't live for a few more days, I called you back to Beijing, just to see you again, don't be sorry Is it okay for me to be so tense? If you want, I can offer this country with both hands. I only want you, as long as you can forgive."

Gao Yuelou closed his eyes, shook his head, didn't even turn his head, and said indifferently: "I'm a useless person, what do you want this country to do? Besides, Your Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, how can there be mistakes? How can you forgive me? You never understood me, so why bother me now? If Your Majesty is fine, I will leave first, and Ah Li is waiting for me."

The emperor bowed his head and said, "I know what you want is for your parents and sister to be safe and sound, and your family to be happy."

Gao Yuelou paused, and his shoulders twitched slightly.

The emperor murmured: "But I want to rule the world, and I also want you. It's because I'm not greedy enough, it's because I'm not good, but now I can't even change my past?"

Gao Yuelou stopped staying any longer and left quickly.The emperor flung himself helplessly on the ground in panic, looked at the hairpin shining brightly in the sun, and smiled weakly.

When he was 11 years old, he felt that Ah Zhuo's crooked eyebrows and eyes were particularly painful when he smiled, so he thought of snatching Ah Zhuo as a companion, so he snatched it. When he was 14 years old, he knew that Mr. Gao was devoted to assisting the prince to be the emperor, so he framed the prince for having an affair with the late emperor's favorite wife.He seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind, and he suddenly understood. At the same time, he also knew that power was a good thing, and he wanted to fight for it.

The eldest princess hated him for framing her younger brother, and united with the fourth prince to deal with him.When Wusun came to attack, the timid Emperor Xian panicked.He offered a plan for the eldest princess to get married, personally tied the eldest princess to marry the old man, and directly took her soldiers for his own use.Then join forces with Jing Ting to kill the fourth prince, and force the former emperor to pass on to him.After counting all the crimes against the first emperor, he killed the first emperor himself.A hundred days later, she married the daughter of the Gao family as the queen, and the Gao family lived in peace for a while.He also spared himself to manage state affairs with peace of mind. The country was a little more stable and the weather was smooth. He exempted taxes for another three years. The people were grateful and naturally supported him.Unexpectedly, the Gao family harbored the deposed prince, intending to rebel, and Mr. Gao even tied up his seven-year-old grandson.If he was captured without a fight, he would die, so he ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows to kill Mr. Gao, and the little prince would be saved as long as he could.Fortunately, Ah Li's fate was fatal, or Mr. Gao realized with his conscience that he blocked the arrow for Ah Li with his own flesh and blood.

At that time, he was young and energetic, and he only felt that Gao's family didn't know good from bad, so he ordered to kill 21 members of his family, leaving only the queen and Gao Yuelou.But in the eyes of Gao Yuelou, he just killed 23 members of the Gao family, even if the queen committed suicide, even if he was still alive, he still called himself a walking dead.

The emperor climbed up on the ground, with blood stains on his clothes, forced a sigh of relief, and stumbled back to the Wuji Palace.

Since then, the emperor's body has deteriorated day by day, he was tortured by illness day and night, and he was as thin as a stick of dry wood.Gao Yuelou simply moved into the palace and assisted Jiang Wanyu wholeheartedly.

The emperor leaned against the bed, took Jiang Wanyu's approved memorial and read it carefully, nodding while reading.After sitting for a long time, my head felt dizzy for a while, stars appeared in my eyes, and my body couldn't help shaking.

Seeing this, Gao Yuelou helped him up, took out a pill from his sleeve and stuffed it into his mouth, "How is your Majesty?"

The emperor waved his hands, leaned on him, looked up at him, showing a pale smile, Gao Yuelou felt pain like his heart and liver had been picked, but his face was still cold.

The emperor held Jiang Wanyu's hand, and said angrily, "A Li, are you afraid?"

Jiang Wanyu shook her head, and held his hand tightly, only to feel that his hand was dry, with bulging veins on the back of his hand, like a piece of old wood that was about to die.Jiang Wanyu put his hand close to his face, and the tears couldn't stop falling down.

The emperor patted his head and said with a smile: "Don't cry, don't be afraid, you are smart and hardworking, and you handle political affairs well. In a few years, you will be even better. You can hold on to this country."

When Jiang Wanyu heard this, his heart was flustered, and his tears fell faster and faster.

The emperor coughed violently, the veins on his forehead popped out, Gao Yuelou was busy giving him relief, covering his mouth with a handkerchief.The emperor coughed until his whole body was flushed, he only felt a fishy sweetness in his mouth, and a burning pain in his abdomen.He coughed so hard that he had no strength left, so he could only lean in Gao Yuelou's arms, coughing indistinctly from time to time.

Gao Yuelou looked blankly at the blood-soaked handkerchief, his hands were also blood-stained red, he held the handkerchief, his head went blank with a buzzing sound, he looked at the emperor again, his hands trembling, at this moment he couldn't even say a word. Can't tell.

The emperor smiled, took the handkerchief and threw it into the brazier, the firelight reflected on his face, staining his face with a blush, adding a bit of enchantment.The light in his eyes was clear and firm, as if the person who vomited blood was not himself.

Jiang Wanyu looked at the brocade handkerchief crackling and burning in the brazier, and smelled the burnt smell, which gradually cleared up his chaotic mind.He tremblingly said: "The reason why father lit the brazier is to burn these?"

The emperor nodded, and said in a low voice: "King Annan has not yet married, Wusun has not yet been pacified, father's serious illness must not be spread, otherwise they will definitely try their best to deal with you."

Jiang Wanyu's lips trembled slightly, and he panicked in fear, "But, my father vomited blood, my father can't be tired anymore, son, son, go to the doctor." After speaking, he walked out.

The emperor was anxious, but he didn't have any extra strength, so he could only tremble with his fingertips, pointing at his stumbling back, Gao Yuelou immediately shouted: "Come back! Don't go!"

Jiang Wanyu turned around, very emotional, and cried loudly: "Why don't you go? Father is already like this? Uncle, I have no mother and queen. If I lose father again, I will be an orphan!"

The emperor took a breath, and said comfortingly: "Ah Li, don't be stupid, wipe away your tears, you go back to the East Palace first, father is fine, this disease, hasn't healed up in previous years?"

Gao Yuelou was startled, his face was ashen, and he murmured: "There are also in previous years?" , whispered in his ear: "You are an adult now, don't let your father bother you, go back to the East Palace."

Jiang Wanyu still wanted to talk, but Gao Yuelou shook his head and gave him a reassuring look, then he fell silent, quickly wiped his tears with his sleeve, and left with red eyes.
