Chapter 196 I want you all to be buried with him!
Speaking of this matter, the one who was most devastated was Jian Yue.
The entire banquet hall was in chaos, with screams and shouts ringing out. Many guards were unable to react. Only Xiao Yanzi, who was at the top, shouted, "Protect the emperor, protect the emperor!"
Some secret guards rushed over and blocked the people in front.
The table was overturned. The assassins were quite skilled in martial arts. Concubine Yin, who was the closest, originally wanted to go over and show off, but the secret guards attacked quickly, fiercely and accurately. Blood splattered all over her body. Concubine Yin was now experiencing the most severe morning sickness. She screamed and vomited.
A guard not far away immediately came over to support her and protect her.
Jian Yue knew at a glance that it was the guard who had committed adultery with Concubine Yin in front of the emperor. At this time, the two of them showed their true feelings in times of trouble.
Many people ran outside.
Jian Yue was actually a person who valued his life, but the moment he regained consciousness, his feet had already rushed upstream onto the steps of the main hall. According to the time, Concubine Liu should have returned, but there was no sight of her at all.
"call out!"
A short knife flew over from the air and narrowly grazed Jian Yue's face.
The assassins were blood-thirsty and scattered hidden weapons everywhere. This time they came with such force that even some people had sneaked into the kitchen. Jian Yue noticed that many guards had been poisoned and knocked down, and the environment at the scene was becoming increasingly unfavorable.
They are becoming more and more passive.
There were even a few assassins who surrounded Jian Yue.
There were several loud thunders not far away, which knocked out all the nearby assassins. When Jian Yue looked up, he saw that Xiao Lizi and others had joined the melee at some point.
"Go quickly!" Gao Fei knocked one of them unconscious with a stick, and he still had plenty of strength left: "Go to His Majesty quickly!"
Jian Yue only had time to say, "Thank you."
He lifted his skirt and ran upwards, while at the top, a group of people were protecting the empress dowager and the emperor. Huangfu Chengyu held a sword in his hand, and the sword was still dripping with blood. The blood dripped down the cold sword, and his dragon robe was also splashed with bright red blood. Obviously, he was the most central target, but the man was not panicked at all. His eyes were cold and firm, without the slightest hesitation.
When Jian came over, he saw someone else trying to pounce on the emperor with a weapon. His heart was about to jump out of his chest. Originally, he had been thinking that he must establish his own character well and try not to reveal any flaws.
But the moment I saw it, my heart almost jumped into my throat!
Huangfu Chengyu might die.
Realizing this made Jian Yue's entire brain go blank for a moment. It was a fear and trembling from the soul. He was unwilling to face and even more unwilling to accept any possibility related to this.
So the moment his brain gave the order, he had already rushed forward.
"careful!"
The sword in his hand that he used to dance with turned into a real weapon to kill the enemy. His palms were numb from the shock. He turned his head and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it is very dangerous here. You should retreat to a safe place first!"
The Queen Mother was already panicking, and had already run back under the cover of a group of people. She was not the target of the assassins, so she ran even faster. Halfway through her run, she remembered her adopted son. Perhaps she felt it was a bit embarrassing to run away like this, so she held back and ran back, shouting, "Emperor! Go! Only by keeping yourself alive can you keep your country. If these servants are gone, they are gone!"
It's too noisy around here.
Most people couldn't hear clearly what she said, but Jian Yue, who was closest to her, could hear it clearly.
But he didn't have the time or energy to care about the empress dowager's nonsense.
Subconsciously, I thought the emperor was gone.
Jian Yue's tense heart slowly relaxed. Great, he was fine, he was still safe.
The skirt was not very convenient for movement. Jian Yue had just relaxed when he heard the sound of a sharp sword breaking through the air behind him. However, the sword in mid-air was cut off. He turned around and saw Huangfu Chengyu.
Huangfu Chengyu held him by the hand and said, "Let's go."
Jian Yue's skirt was stained with blood. He staggered forward as he followed Huangfu Chengyu. His arms and waist were injured, so he walked slowly.
But it happened just when it reached the corner.
With the light of a lantern that suddenly lit up, Jian Yue saw the guards who were protecting their retreat. One of them turned around, and the sword in his hand shone with a cold light.
Jian Yue slowly widened his eyes.
He didn't even have time to push away the person next to him. His arms were completely powerless and his body's reaction was ten thousand times faster than his brain. By the time he reacted, he heard the sound of a sharp blade breaking through flesh.
In fact, I was a little dazed for a moment.
The pain was not as severe as he had imagined. It was as if his brain had activated some kind of self-protection mechanism. His mind was blank and a fishy smell rushed straight into his throat. He hunched over in pain and saw large amounts of red liquid spurting out through his blurry eyes. They were all vomited by him.
Before his consciousness faded, he saw Huangfu Chengyu's anxious face. It was really strange. When he was assassinated, His Majesty was so calm, without any emotional changes. This man seemed to be calm all the time, and nothing could stir up his thoughts. But now, he seemed like an outer shell had been shattered.
Jian Yue wanted to raise her hand and tell him that she was fine.
But he lost consciousness before he could even open his mouth.
The scene became even more noisy. The empress dowager heard the noise behind her and turned around, only to see a shocking scene. The emperor was holding his concubine and was furious. It was the first time she saw the emperor really take action. The assassins who came one after another from all around were killed by the cold light of the sword, and the guard who hurt the concubine was spared.
The emperor ordered his men like a king of hell, "Throw him into the prison, and interrogate him severely. I want to know who is behind this."
No one dared to disobey his orders.
It was as if it was the first time that the empress dowager knew that the emperor's martial arts were so good. The emperor had kept it too secret over the years. But think about it, the Xue family is a family of military generals. Even if the eldest son of the Xue family has been weak since childhood, how bad could he be?
The Queen Mother looked at the man covered in blood, and the Emperor slowly turned to look at her. Through the dim candlelight, the two looked into each other's eyes. His dark and deep eyes were particularly deep and cold, as if he was a man-eating devil.
Then a moment.
A boundless chill crept into the empress dowager's heart, and she suddenly felt scared, as if she had never known the emperor before.
“Protect the emperor!!”
The imperial guards rushed into the hall, and the whole hall fell into chaos again, filled with a bloody and murderous atmosphere. The Bailu Temple was shrouded in flames throughout the night, as if returning to purgatory on earth.
And in the emperor's bedroom.
The imperial doctors came running in, all of them urgently summoned by the emperor.
They subconsciously wanted to check the emperor's pulse, but Huangfu Chengyu pointed at the person on the bed and said, "Check it out for him."
The imperial doctors were stunned at first, because the most honorable person in the world is the emperor, and even the importance of the concubines is ranked behind the emperor. However, when they met the emperor's cold gaze, they quickly swallowed their doubts. No one dared to question the emperor's decision, because they all had a hunch that if they said a few more words, they might be the ones to die.
After taking the patient's pulse, the imperial doctors were all a little surprised. This pulse... wasn't right!
Although it is very weak, it can be vaguely diagnosed that this is the pulse of a man. But isn't it clear that the person lying on the bed is a concubine from the harem?
It's really strange.
Huangfu Chengyu's voice fell and said, "Is there any problem?"
The imperial physician hesitated and said, "This... Your Excellency's pulse is really a bit strange, it's not like a woman's, but more like..."
Huangfu Chengyu frowned and said, "I told you to take care of his injuries first, why are you caring about these useless things?!"
The imperial doctors were shocked and quickly gathered their minds to take another look. It would have been better if they hadn't examined him. The more they examined, the more frightened they became. The injury was too severe, with wounds all over the body, and his heart pulse was so weak that it was almost impossible to feel it.
"Your Excellency has been seriously wounded in many places, and the blood is flowing non-stop." The imperial doctors turned around and carefully said to the emperor who was chilled all over, "Your Majesty, the assassin's hidden weapon seems to have been tempered with more than one poison, and his intentions are sinister. These poisons themselves are not incurable, but they are mixed together, so we dare not use medicine without authorization. Please... be mentally prepared, Your Majesty."
Huangfu Chengyu's hands, which were placed under his robe, tightened unconsciously. The man's face was cold: "If you can't cure him, I will bury you with me."
The imperial doctors' hearts trembled.
The emperor himself did not say such words when his life was in danger, how could this noble lady Liu be so important! ?
The worried audience in the live broadcast room were stunned:
Language Greek
"Let's put aside the host's injury for now."
"Why does this line sound familiar?"
"Hahahaha, isn't this what the hero should have said to the heroine?"
"Butler Wang has been promoted again based on his own abilities!"
The number of online viewers in the live broadcast room kept soaring, and the number had risen to 70,000, entering the center of the square in the nightmare world. Not only because the dungeon of this mode was new, most of the taskers had no experience and were very curious, but also because the dungeons of the new mode at the same time were also very dangerous, but...
There is no such copy as this one!
There is even a hot post on the forum that is on the hot list: "Who hasn't seen the new mode "Pure Love Princess Hot"? The main plot of that dungeon has been completely released. What is happening now are the hero and heroine becoming rivals in love, the hero and the second hero pulling each other's hair, the dungeon ghosts being changed into workers, a large-scale harem bloody love triangle, and of course the inspirational life of the eunuch chief!"
This post was posted in the morning and became popular in the afternoon.
As soon as the audience in the live broadcast room entered, they saw the exciting scene of the night banquet, and the plot line of the male and female protagonists was a mess, but the audience in the live broadcast room was not only not anxious, but also let the new audience drink it while it was hot...
In short:
Both his audience and the host himself have a mental state of not caring about people’s lives!
And inside the temple.
The eunuchs and palace maids who came and went were all carrying basins of blood in their hands. The Imperial Hospital tried their best but could only remove the hidden weapons in Jian Yue's arms and abdomen. However, the other sword wound that pierced his heart could not heal for a long time. In addition, he was poisoned, and the bloody smell in the room became more and more serious. There was no need for the imperial doctors to report. Huangfu Chengyu, looking at the pale face of the person on the bed, had already realized something.
Especially as time goes by.
With blood all over her body, Concubine Liu's appearance changed. Huangfu Chengyu watched her hair slowly getting shorter. He glanced at the palace maids who were about to approach him again and said, "Get out."
The imperial doctors were also outside, still busy discussing the matter.
Huangfu Chengyu completely pulled down the bed curtains. He looked at the pale face of the person on the bed. This person would never smile at him again, nor would he nag him anymore. She was clearly alive and kicking yesterday, parading with him through the streets, but today she was lying there bloodless, as if she would leave him in the next second.
He will die.
Huangfu Chengyu's eyes turned a somewhat paranoid scarlet when he realized this. His heart contracted violently whenever he thought of this possibility. It was as if every inch of blood in his body was emitting a painful roar. He could not accept this.
The last time he felt such pain was at the execution ground when the entire Xue family was executed. He stood there and felt as if he had died too. Since then, he no longer had any relatives. He originally thought that he would never feel this way again in his life, but now, he felt that kind of pain and anger again, as if it was almost tearing the human soul apart.
Huangfu Chengyu stood up and said to the head of the Imperial Hospital who was kneeling on the ground, "Go and invite the great Zen master."
Everyone was shocked.
If it was not an important matter, the emperor would never invite the great Zen master. The great Zen master would not come out unless it was necessary. According to legend, the great Zen master was rescued by the Xue family that year. He had promised to save the Xue family twice, once when the emperor was poisoned for the first time, and the second time is now.
This is equivalent to the emperor giving up his chance to save his life.
The director of the Imperial Hospital shouted loudly: "Your Majesty! Think twice! Please take back your order!"
"I have made up my mind." Huangfu Chengyu said expressionlessly to the guards not far away: "Anyone who disobeys my order will be executed."
Of course, the imperial doctors still felt that life was more important, so someone went to invite him immediately.
In fact, the great Zen master had already heard the noise outside when he was in the yard, but he had already observed the stars and knew that the emperor's life was not in danger. He did not expect that someone from the Imperial Hospital would come to ask him for help.
When hurriedly arrived.
The great Zen master saw that the entire main hall had been emptied. The emperor was sitting on the couch, his dragon robe stained with bright red blood, and even his handsome and cold face was covered with dried blood. He sat there so calmly, his eyes were empty and dark, with a cup of tea at hand, but he did not move. He just sat there, as if he was the only one left in the world.
Suddenly.
The great Zen master recalled that a long, long time ago, when the emperor was still a young child, he also sat on the chair like this, covered in blood, when he killed the person who had taken care of him for many years but betrayed him for the first time.
No expression, no crying.
When the great Zen master approached, the young prince, who was said to be cruel and ruthless by the outside world, looked up at him and said softly, "Master, I am so scared."
That was the first and only time the great Zen master saw Huangfu Chengyu so vulnerable.
There was no more after that.
He also thought that he would never see it in his life, until now.
When he came in, the emperor sitting on the couch seemed to come back to his senses. He raised his head and looked at the great Zen master with the same eyes as before. He hadn't looked like this for a long time. Ever since the Xue family was executed, the young man was forced to grow up quickly. He needed to be an emperor, to be able to plan strategies, to not show his emotions, and not let his opponents discover his weaknesses in this living environment surrounded by wolves.
And now.
Huangfu Chengyu looked at him, his voice was a little hoarse, and his lips were dry: "Master, save him."
The great Zen master said, "Is he important to you?"
"I can't lose him." Huangfu Chengyu said slowly.
The great Zen master looked at Huangfu Chengyu's paranoid eyes and sighed softly. He slowly stepped into the curtain and was somewhat surprised but not surprised to see who was on the bed. When he first saw Jian Yue, he realized that there must be a story between this child and Huangfu Chengyu. He calculated that there might be some uneasiness between them, but compared to those insurmountable difficulties, separation of life and death came faster.
Taking the pulse, the great Zen master felt the pulse carefully.
Then he checked Jian Yue's injuries and said, "His heart meridian was injured. The wounds on his limbs are not fatal, but they are all poisoned. I will try to detoxify him and then give him some medicine."
Huangfu Chengyu nodded and said, "Okay."
The great Zen master quickly found a pen and paper and began to write a prescription for detoxification, but he found that Huangfu Chengyu had been standing next to him. He frowned and said, "Your health is not good either. Didn't the Imperial Hospital check you?"
Huangfu Chengyu said: "It was me who refused to let him."
Jian Yue's life or death was uncertain, and he was in no mood to heal his wounds.
The great Zen master shook his head and said, "Nonsense! You are the king of a country. If you fall first, won't that give those who want to harm you an opportunity?"
Huangfu Chengyu said: "The wounds on my body are all flesh wounds, not serious. Although those hidden weapons are poisonous, you know that those poisons have no effect on me. I already have the most poisonous thing in the world on my body."
The great Zen master could only sigh.
Perhaps in order to avoid being buried with the deceased, the people from the Imperial Hospital were particularly quick and efficient and prepared the medicinal bath quickly.
The entire medicine barrel was filled with everything. Various medicinal materials and incomprehensible bubbles floated on the black barrel of medicine. The audience in the live broadcast room felt creepy when they saw it:
"Even through the screen I can tell this medicine barrel must be extremely bitter!"
"The anchor actually has a good fate."
"The monsters are so willing to save him!"
"But the bitterness of this medicine barrel is so great that it might be lethal to Butler Wang who is afraid of bitterness!"
The great Zen master said to Huangfu Chengyu: "Let him sit in it and soak for an hour. This medicine soup can prolong his life. If he can spit out the poisonous blood, that would be great. If not..."
He stopped talking.
Huangfu Chengyu directly picked up Jian Yue, who had been bandaged, and held him horizontally. The man in his arms was pale and his breathing was even very weak. His life was slipping away. He was a very timid person. Huangfu Chengyu knew from the moment he met him that he was a person who valued his life very much, but was a little greedy and sometimes a little heartless, but he was also very smart.
But such a clever man, just for his own sake, offended those big shots, each of whom could crush him to death.
But such a cowardly person dared to stand in front of himself without thinking when the sword was coming, and even lost his life.
You obviously care about me so much.
But just when I showed my kindness to him, he pushed me away.
Huangfu Chengyu thought he was a deep-minded person, but sometimes he couldn't see clearly what Jian Yue was thinking. He carried the person to the medicine barrel, tightened his hand unconsciously, and put the person into the medicine barrel. The unconscious person did not react at all.
The great Zen master saw everything and said, "Okay, everyone get out."
Huangfu Chengyu said: "I'll guard here."
The great Zen master hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not stop him. He understood Huangfu Chengyu's thoughts. At a time like this, perhaps if he could stay a little longer, seeing him one more time would mean seeing him one less time.
Time passes by little by little.
More and more people inside and outside the Bailu Temple, including some of the gang members outside, were arrested during the interrogation in the Tianlao.
And inside the temple.
Two hours later, the great Zen master came in again. He felt Jian Yue's pulse and his expression became more serious. He looked at Huangfu Chengyu, and their eyes met. The great Zen master sighed slowly and shook his head gently.
The heart pulse has stopped.
The most important thing is that the poison invaded his internal organs. If it was just a simple poisoning, it would be fine, but his heart wound was the fatal wound. Without that wound, he might still be saved.
Huangfu Chengyu asked: "Is there no other solution?"
The great Zen master said: "If there is any way, I will try it. His heart is dead now, and there is no medicine to cure it. The poison has already invaded his heart veins. He is too injured. Even I can't do anything, unless..."
Halfway through.
The great Zen master looked at him and said, "But you can't take such a risk and tie your life to another person."
Huangfu Chengyu just quietly looked at the person leaning against the wall of the medicine barrel. He was pale, with black hair half covering his face, and he was so quiet as if he was asleep.
"I know, you go out first." Huangfu Chengyu said.
Even if he cried, even if he got angry, the great Zen master felt better. However, the calmer Huangfu Chengyu was, the more uneasy the great Zen master felt. It was like the dark calm before the storm.
But this kind of thing was not something he could interfere with, so after a moment of silence he finally left.
There were only two people left in the room.
Huangfu Chengyu looked at the person in the medicine barrel. He slowly raised his hand and slowly brushed away the broken hair on Jian Yue's face. He looked at the person who was always full of energy lying there silently. The water was getting cold, as if it had taken away the person's body temperature. He looked at the person in front of him quietly and slowly said, "Is it stupid or not? Is it worth it?"
No one answered him.
But it was as if she felt his breath, and just as everyone has a last burst of vitality, the bucket of water that had been used up with all the rare treasures and life-extending medicine in the world might have had a little effect after all.
When Huangfu Chengyu's fingertips stroked the corner of the eye of the unconscious man, the eyelids of the unconscious man moved.
Jian Yue slowly opened his heavy eyelids. His consciousness was mixed and blurry, as if he was focused, but also as if he wasn't. In front of him was Huangfu Chengyu's hand. He could smell the scent of this person. He called out softly, "Xiaoyu..."
Huangfu Chengyu paused.
Jian Yue's eyes were misty. He had no strength in his body and was very sleepy. It was as if he realized something. At this moment, he didn't even have the energy to think too much. He just smelled the familiar fragrance of plum blossoms. He took a light breath, and then used up all his strength to slowly piece together a broken sentence: "I, I want to see... see you"
Huangfu Chengyu stood up suddenly. The always mature and steady emperor even knocked over his chair when he stood up. He leaned close to the person in front of him as if he was holding the most precious and fragile treasure.
Jian Yue slowly raised her hand and wanted to touch his face, but she had no strength to drop it halfway out of the water.
Huangfu Chengyu held his hand, drinking the bitter-tasting medicine, and put Jian Yue's hand on his face. He thought Jian Yue wanted to touch him, but Jian Yue's fingertips trembled slightly, but she wiped away the tears on his face.
"I miss you so much." Jian Yue's throat was filled with a sweet and fishy taste, but his eyes were filled with a tender smile, and the image of the person in front of him was fully imprinted in them: "I'm glad you're okay."
Then, Huangfu Chengyu felt that the hand on his face gradually lost its strength.
