Emperor of Yuan
“Bang!”
In the dead silence, the crisp sound of porcelain breaking suddenly rang out. Everyone came to their senses and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Le Gexiao in gorgeous clothes.
Le Gexiao's face was gloomy, and she stared at the figure lying on the ground with a heavy gaze. Her right hand fingers were clenched tightly, and white porcelain fragments and bright red blood were sandwiched between her fingers.
She slowly turned her head and stared at the old figure above her with a cold look in her eyes.
At the same time, General Xie suddenly smashed the wine glass in his hand to the ground in front of him. His eyes were red and he cast a fierce look at the old emperor sitting above him. The features on his face became more and more hideous and distorted, as if he wanted to tear the dry and old figure into pieces!
The person next to him quickly grabbed him and opened his mouth.
Suddenly, a man rushed into the banquet room. He looked up in panic and saw the black-armored soldiers in front of him. He shrank back, and then seemed to think of something. He suddenly pushed aside the black-armored soldiers and rushed forward.
"Your Highness, Your Highness has fallen off his horse!!!"
Xie Wuwang and Lian Xiangsheng felt a dark sensation before their eyes.
Xie Wuwang slammed the table and stood up. He kicked over the low wooden table in front of him in anger and stared at the old emperor at the top.
The people around him looked unhappy and didn't dare to stop him.
"Ha ha……"
The withered figure at the top, wrapped in layers of thick black robes, suddenly trembled, and a hoarse laugh as if there was a mouthful of old phlegm stuck in the throat rang out in the silent world.
“Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, cough, cough…ha ...
The old emperor laughed like crazy, coughing constantly and spitting out a mouthful of yellow, foul-smelling, sour water. He continued to laugh and roar, "I am the emperor of Yuan Kingdom!!! I am the king of Yuan Kingdom!!!"
"Who dares to disobey me?! Who dares to interfere with my decision?!"
The roar of a wild beast in its last desperate struggle echoed between heaven and earth, and the old emperor laughed madly.
He laughed so hard that he fell over and knocked over the low wooden table in front of him. He fell to the ground in a twisted posture, twitching continuously.
Everyone at the banquet turned their heads and cast their gazes at him, their expressions varied, but no one spoke a word.
After a long while, Lian Xiangsheng turned around with a sullen face and ordered his attendants, "Take good care of His Highness."
Xie Wuwang, who was standing next to him, frowned when he heard this and turned to look at him.
After a pause, he seemed to understand something and felt chilled, but he could only look away angrily and helplessly.
"Haha...ha, cough cough cough...cough vomit..."
The black-armored soldiers suddenly retreated. The old emperor twitched at the banquet. Suddenly, he raised his hands and pinched his wrinkled neck tightly. His eyes rolled back and his facial features were distorted hideously. He opened his mouth wide and made a "ho...ho...ho..." sound from his throat.
Except for a few people, most of the courtiers at the banquet stared with wide eyes in astonishment.
"Your Majesty..." Old General Guo was trembling all over. He looked at the figure struggling in pain on the ground in disbelief. Then he looked at the people at the banquet who looked calm and composed. His cracked lips moved for a while. He seemed to understand something and lowered his head with a pale face.
Just when everyone was panicking or uneasy, Rong Yejin and Lian Xiangsheng fixed their gazes firmly on the twisting and tumbling figure on the ground, squinting their eyes and observing silently.
The old emperor lay on the ground, his head held high, his wrinkled face flushed red. He kicked his feet, and his struggle gradually faded...
But the next moment, his hands that were pinching his neck suddenly loosened, and his whole body fell to the ground like a dead fish, gasping for breath like a bull.
No one went to help him.
The old emperor roared in rage and meaninglessly, then raised his head with a ferocious expression, wanting to rebuke them, but he was met with a pair of cold eyes and drooping heads...
In a place where no one was paying attention, Rong Yejin took out a message card with his right hand covered by his red sleeve, and sent out a message with a thought.
Then, with a perpetual smile on his face, he ignored the old emperor's terrified, pleading, and angry, rebuking look.
…………
In the deep forest with lush trees, two snow-white horses, one tall and one short, were strolling in the forest, swaying their tails.
Suddenly, his spiritual consciousness penetrated into the storage bracelet. Jiang Jingyuan took out the message card that had turned into a jade card and looked down at the contents inside.
After a quick glance, the girl's dark eyes moved slightly, and she slowly put the message card back into the storage space thoughtfully.
Don’t come back yet… Jiang Jingyuan thought about the contents on the card, and a strange feeling emerged in his mind. Why were they told not to go back yet? Did something happen there?
"What's wrong?" Jiang Jingjian, who was walking with her, threw the rabbit he was holding back into the bushes, turned his head to look at her, lowered his eyes, took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, and asked casually.
Jiang Jingyuan opened his mouth.
"Hurry! Take His Highness back first! I told you not to touch! Will you?! Take His Highness back first, what are you dithering about?!"
A panicked and frantic scream suddenly erupted from the forest on the side.
Jiang Jingyuan paused and turned her head to look in that direction. However, the layers of trees blocked her view of the scenery over there. She could only hear the chaotic and heavy footsteps that were difficult to conceal and the sound of branches and weeds breaking and crushing.
Jiang Jingyuan subconsciously pulled the reins slowly and stopped where he was. His face was calm as he pondered in his mind: "What happened over there... over there..."
Jiang Jingyuan paused, as if catching a flash of inspiration: "Is it related to what happened at the banquet? Your Highness... is it... Jiang Jingsui or Jiang Jingzong?"
Jiang Jingjian was with her. If something happened to anyone else, Rong Yejin would not let her go back first. It could only be that something happened to Jiang Jingbai or Jiang Jingzong.
"Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Jiang Jingyuan paused when he heard this and turned to look at the man in black who was smiling beside him.
Jiang Jingjian's eyes curved, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth. He tilted his head slightly to look at her. The tassels hanging from his ears fell on his shoulders, and the five golden Five Emperors' coins woven on them shone brightly in the rays of sunlight.
Looking at the unchanged smile on his face, countless complicated thoughts flashed through Jiang Jingyuan's mind. Before she could grasp any thoughts, an indescribable strange and complex emotion arose in her heart for no reason.
Her thoughts were a bit confused, but almost as soon as the strange emotion arose, she suppressed it forcefully. Jiang Jingyuan said calmly, "No."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Jingyuan clearly saw the smile on the man in front of him widen a little.
But it was only a blink of an eye, and the smile on Jiang Jingjian's face faded a little. He smiled lightly and nodded, saying, "Okay, then we'll walk around for a while and then go back."
Jiang Jingyuan nodded.
Riding her horse slowly and chasing hares and birds, the girl in a delicate red and beige riding outfit sitting on the snow-white dwarf horse gradually stopped looking around curiously. It was obvious that she was tired of the scenery here and was somewhat uninterested.
Jiang Jingjian took a look, understood, and said, "Then let's go back."
Things over there should be almost done. I'll confirm it when I get closer... Jiang Jingyuan thought about it, nodded slowly with some fatigue, and said, "Yeah."
The tall horse trotted in front of the snow-white pony. Jiang Jingjian took her around a corner in the woods and walked back.
The slightly sleepy and tired looking girl at the back suddenly raised her dark eyes, and glanced at the black-clad figure in front of her with a pensive gaze. She blinked, and Jiang Jingyuan looked ahead calmly again, pulling the reins and spurring his horse to catch up leisurely.
never mind……
They all just go with the flow.
Since she is not interested in this, don't interfere too much.
"Everyone has his own destiny..." Jiang Jingyuan sighed in his heart, seeming to sigh and laugh at himself.
She was exhausted, year after year, as if only the blood seal and the method of immortality were keeping her alive.
No one wants to die, we struggle just to live a better life.
…………
When a group of brightly dressed young men returned from the deep forest on horseback with the birds and beasts they had hunted, all they saw was a scene of desolation and ruin.
The adults, familiar and unfamiliar, all had cold expressions. They either stood facing each other or ran around hurriedly, and no one spoke.
The young men's eyes turned, and the smiles on their faces immediately disappeared. They lowered their heads with serious faces and walked around the edge to behind their elders. They were silent and did not dare to ask or mention anything else.
Perhaps when they were young, they were brought up innocently at home, but when they grew up and went out to experience life a few times, they could distinguish right from wrong.
After all, those who are stupid and unaware and those who are naive and kind-hearted can never come back.
When Jiang Jingyuan and Jiang Jingjian came back slowly, they looked forward and saw this strange and silent scene, as if there were silent weapons fighting each other.
The two of them dismounted at the outskirts and approached, leading the horses by the reins.
Rong Yejin saw them and nodded at them with a smile. Jiang Jingyuan and Jiang Jingjian handed their horses to the servants and walked around quietly.
However, no matter how low-key they are, there are still people who notice them——
Most of them were from the Xie family, the Lian family, and Jiang Jingbai's side. When they saw that Jiang Jingjian and the other man were safe and sound, and thought of Jiang Jingbai's affairs, they suddenly felt depressed. They frowned, looked aggrieved and depressed, and turned their faces away, not wanting to look anymore.
Rong Yejin glanced at the girl following behind Jiang Jingjian, then turned his gaze back to Jiang Jingjian and said with a smile, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
He looked at Jiang Jingyuan again, "Your Highness Changsheng."
Rong Yejin smiled and whispered, "Your Majesty, I will return to the capital in a moment."
"Are we going back to Beijing now?" Jiang Jingyuan thought so, but in fact, there were not many doubts in his heart, and he even felt an inexplicable calmness and indifference.
She didn't know what had happened here just now, but just by looking at the atmosphere around her, she could guess roughly what had happened.
The scene was so chaotic, which meant that the old emperor had no ability to calm the situation. Since the old emperor had no ability to calm the situation, how could he order a return to the capital and expect so many people to obey?
Background determines resources, but what stands above all else is absolute strength.
In this era, military power is important.
People are oppressed with "bloodline" and "orthodoxy" and tamed with years of religious rhetoric. The more powerful one is, the more they feel that this is just the way it is.
The reason why the royal family is the royal family is because they have special secret methods that are unknown to the public, they have unshakable military strength, and they master unique secrets and resources.
Everything may be a makeshift team, only resources and strength are absolutely real.
Jiang Jingyuan didn't react much, and didn't have many thoughts in his mind. He responded to Jiang Jingjian with a faint expression, and was taken away by Jiang Jingjian.
When passing by the tent surrounded by the Xie family, Jiang Jingyuan walked past calmly.
But when she raised her eyes, she saw Jiang Jingjian, who was holding her sleeve in front of her, looking back at her.
