Chapter 349 General Order (25)

General, we will be here one day.

Hearing the deputy general's report, Zhang Huan held back the reins.

When I looked up, I saw the dark night sky, and a crescent moon hung on the top of the forest like a hook. It was still a bit cold in early spring night. The armor of the guards around me seemed to be covered with white frost. When I opened my mouth and spoke, I could still see the heat condensed into frost on my lips.

It was indeed cold enough to go north. Zhang Huan rubbed his hands. The guys escaped here, and I'm afraid they didn't plan to go back.

As the generals decided today, they were just some defeated soldiers and naturally they could only flee around like a dog from a despair. The deputy general smiled and said, "The general was unable to work for the general to come to pursue him in person. It must be General Xin Chong, His Highness of the King of Yue, who had just given this order."

Is it true to me...?Zhang Huan smiled. After going through all his hardships, he began a war without stopping.

After the Tan family unified the world, many rioters still wandered out. In the past six months, Zhang Huan first pursued Li Ding's remnants in the northwest. After the death of King Jiaoxi, he was ordered to wipe out the largest force led by his eldest son.

On the surface, this naturally represents the trust of the lord in him. Tan Heng certainly valued him, but after Tan Heng passed away, the man who gave the order, the new King of Yue, had not been that simple in his intention.

This is because I thought I lived too long... He whispered with a smile. It was too simple to die on the battlefield, so that man didn't need to do it himself. As long as he ordered him to go on the battle again and again, there would always be a time to kill him.

As for why that person did this, Zhang Huan and he knew it well.

The engagement that Yao Ji thought she didn't need to be cared about has not been terminated until now.

In fact, they all understood that the engagement could not bind anyone at all.

But Zhang Huan had already understood that man, he was even more terrifying than his father.

It’s not because he is more ruthless, but rather because his feelings are so intense that they are horrifying.

So Zhang Huan must die, and a man who is still in the name of his sister's fiancé must die.

As long as he dies, the engagement will naturally be invalid. You can also postpone your sister's marriage for a few more years using the reason why her fiancé died of a battle.

But what will they do afterwards?

Zhang Huan felt curious, it was a kind of curiosity mixed with pleasure, but also a deep hatred for himself.

He liked that woman, hoping that she would be happy, but he could not control his jealousy.

If she couldn't be with her brother, she would be in pain. Because of her pain, he felt pain for it, but in that pain, she would be comforted because she could not belong to another man after all.

Even with Zhang Huan's wisdom, he couldn't think of how they would be together openly without giving up on the world.

So, is this the reason why the hexagrams are unclear... The world will eventually belong to the family, but who that person is actually changed.

I'm not perfunctory to you, Sanniang, he smiled slightly because I couldn't see clearly... the unpredictable fate.

On March 27, the 600-li military newspaper arrived at the capital. Zhang Huan, the troops of the eldest son of the Jiaoxi King, disappeared after leaving Huangquan Pass west.

Outside Huangquan Pass is a sparsely populated grassland, full of dangers. Although it is an army of ten thousand people, it is still like a drop in the vast wasteland.

At this time, the capital city was very lively because of the upcoming abdication ceremony. After years of war, this heroic city that stood for thousands of years and experienced three dynasties once again rejuvenated.

The last emperor of the previous dynasty issued a decree of guilt a few days ago and decided to abdicate the throne to King Tan Boyu of Yue.

According to the ancient etiquette, the new emperor naturally had to give in three words, but the ownership of the world was confirmed. Regardless of whether the court officials and the people were satisfied, at least most people's joy came from the heart, because the peaceful years were finally coming.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Huan's disappearance seemed so inappropriate. The military newspaper was not even sent to the King of Yue. Li Chengzhong glanced at it and said casually: Let the generals stationed in Huangquan Pass send scouts to search, so there is no need to alarm His Highness, King of Yue.

What is Uncle Li talking about, and there is no need to alarm King Yue.

The girl's crisp voice sounded, and a graceful figure lifted the curtain and entered. Seeing this, Li Chengzhong hurriedly stood up and smiled: Sanniang is here. Because he once supported Tan Zhongkun, he is now at the time to show loyalty in front of Tan Boyu. He knew that Tan Boyu had always loved this sister, so he did not hesitate. The general reported that it was Yao Ji, which was Zhang Congyun. He sent someone to chase and suppress the remnants of the eldest son of Jiaoxi, and disappeared outside Huangquan Pass.

Li Chengzhong did not regard him as a big deal, but saw Yao Ji's face change drastically, and he picked up the military newspaper and hurriedly scanned: I'll go see my elder brother.

She didn't wait for anyone to report and broke into Tan Boyu's study. Tan Boyu was discussing matters with a few confidants in the house, but she didn't blame her. Instead, she said warmly: Let's go out first, I have something important to discuss with Sanniang.

After the salute, the few people withdrew. Yao Ji took two steps forward in three steps and slapped a piece of tissue in front of Tan Boyu's case: Zhang Congyun is missing.

oh?Tan Boyu said lightly.

Brother, she seemed to be holding back her anger and trying to accuse her, but she didn't say those harsh words in the end. I'm going to find him.

No, the man answered without hesitation, you can't go.

Why?

Because it's dangerous there.

It's very dangerous...you know it's very dangerous, why do you have to send him there.She tried her best to suppress the coldness in her voice, trying to calm herself down, but she couldn't do anything.

Just when her brother sent Zhang Huan out for the battle, she had doubts. In fact, it was all intentional. It was my brother's habit to act like this. It was not necessary to do it yourself to get rid of the annoying people.

But she didn't want to believe it, she didn't want to believe it.

Because he had clearly promised her that when he was in front of the spirit, they promised that all the resentment and killing would end here.

But this man didn't stop and continued.

And she can no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb. She wants to atone for her mistakes. If her brother's hostility towards Zhang Huan is because of her, then she will save it.

She didn't want to say anything more, so she turned around and left.

Yaoyao!The sleeve was pulled by someone, and she fell into the familiar embrace. Her warm breath blew on her ears, making the man's voice seem a little weak, don't go, Yaoyao, don't go.

Then you promise me and send someone to save him, and you can't attack him again in the future.

The person behind him hesitated. Although the hesitation was only a short moment, he was about to speak, but he was gently pushed away. The smile on the girl's lips was so helpless and gentle: I understand, brother.

She walked out, and the man stood there, not knowing what words to use to keep him.

On March 28, the Sanniang of Tan led 200 personal soldiers to leave the capital and rushed to Huangquan Pass.

Due to the calmness shown by King Yue, this news did not cause much splash.

The abdication ceremony was still proceeding in an orderly manner, and only a few interested people noticed that the military newspapers from Huangquan Pass were asked to be sent directly to the Yue Palace.

But ten days have passed and twenty days have passed. During this period, only a few military newspapers have been sent back.

The auspicious day calculated by the Imperial Heaven is on the second day of the fifth month. As that day approaches, the King of Yue appears to be more and more irritable.

The veterans who have followed the Tan family for many years have speculated that it should be related to Tan Sanniang who left the capital. Perhaps only when her sister returns safely will the new emperor who is about to ascend the throne be happier.

On the first day of May, he saw that tomorrow was the ceremony, and he finally waited for it, but he just waited for it.

It's the sister's body.

The girl lying in the coffin looked like a living. She didn't seem to have died, but just fell asleep soundly, having a very long dream.

The dream probably couldn't imagine it was too long, so she closed her eyes tightly, letting the people around her call, and she never responded too much to any cry.

My sister... is dead?

The coffin was delivered directly to the Yue Palace, right here. Tomorrow morning, Tan Boyu would sit on the Six Horses Dragon Chariot, drive to the palace, receive the seal of the imperial seal on the high platform, and become the emperor of the new dynasty.

He was also wearing a twelve chapters of big dress, and his solemn color was like an annotation of this situation.

My sister... is dead?

He stood there, in the darkness, right in front of the dusty coffin.

Zhang Huan stood beside the coffin. He should have hated this man. His sister was poisoned to save him.

But... Isn't it myself that I should hate the most?

It was because he refused to give up killing Zhang Huan that his sister would go to Huangquan Pass and die there.

No, my sister was not dead, how could she die? She just fell asleep, she must have fallen asleep!

As if a switch was pressed, he rolled and crawled to the coffin, grabbed the girl's cold hand and put it on his face: No, not dead, Yaoyao's hands are still hot, call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician!

Your Highness...

Someone wanted to comfort him, but was frightened by his eyes that looked like a lone wolf when he turned around. He fell into the dust in a mess, and his gorgeous crown garment wrinkled in a ball: Call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician... Didn't you hear me? Go quickly!Otherwise, I will ask you all to put my head on the ground!

The imperial doctor was called over, but it was undoubtedly futile. He had been dead for five days, so how could he be saved?

But he didn't believe it, and he didn't believe it. He sat there, holding his sister's hand tightly: No, Yaoyao... Yaoyao was just joking with her brother. Sorry, I did something wrong... My brother will never make you angry again. Can you wake up? Please wake up?

But the little hand was clenched tighter and tighter. Through the dead gray skin, the cold feeling taught him to feel despair from the bottom of his heart. He trembled, as if the dying breath was about to break in the next moment, until the imperial doctor shook his head in grief, thump, something seemed to be broken in his body.

He wanted to cry, and wanted to vent his sadness like those around him, but all he could say was howling like a wild beast, nothing was left, nothing was left, tears could not flow out, and even the vitality was stripped away inch by inch.

He heard the people around him screaming in panic, as if calling out His Highness and His Highness to pounce on him.

He fell down, vomited blood and fell in front of the coffin.

The people in the capital have been talking about it recently. The abdication ceremony, which was originally scheduled to be held on the second day of the lunar month, suddenly stopped being held. The news from the court was that the King of Yue felt that this day was not good and asked the Imperial Heaven Supervision to calculate one again. However, it was rejected again after the Imperial Heaven Supervision calculated that the twelfth day was also an auspicious day, but it was rejected again.

Just as the market was talking, the confidant servants of the King of Yue were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

It turned out that King Yue put his sister's coffin in his house and guarded the corpse all day long without eating or drinking. His confidants were kneeling down and even had to give advice to death. He was not moved at all.

The ministers had to ask the two remaining children of the Tan family to persuade him, but Tan Jixing and Tan Wuniang were still young. When they heard that their sister was gone, the two children were stumbling and sobbing, they couldn't even speak in a straightforward manner. How could they comfort their elder brother?

He was like a walking corpse. Since that night, even though he was still alive, he had lost his anger. Some servant couldn't help but speculate in panic: Your Highness, he wouldn't be seeking death...

But how could such a weak move be able to do it by the perseverance of Tan Boyu? He was not trying to seek death. A low voice sounded. Zhang Huan walked out of the door, but the man was gone. He didn't know how to continue. You all retreated, Zhang Huan said lightly, I'll go and persuade Your Highness.

The light in the room was dark and heavy. Just in the faint candlelight, Tan Boyu sat aside, dressed in black, like a stone sculpture.

The ceremony can no longer be delayed. Zhang Huan said calmly, probably his sadness had been exhausted the day she fell. If you don’t come forward, you may be burned out of this great situation that you finally got.You use any means to give up on this, and you have to give up almost everything?

Yes, it was the first time Tan Boyu spoke in so many days. He was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, but his voice was hoarse because he hadn't drunk water for a long time, as harsh as if gravel was rubbing. If she could wake up, she could give up anything.

Just as the words were finished, the light suddenly shone brightly in the coffin!

They were rising from the girl's body, covering her like fireflies.

Gradually, the stars gathered into something like fragments and fell on the girl's chest and heart.

Bang bang bang bang bang... Tan Boyu seemed to hear something jumping again, the golden light turned into waves, flowing gurgling on the girl's body. They soaked inch by inch, and then faded inch by inch, and the skin exposed after it faded miraculously radiated a fresh luster.

Yaoyao...

At this time, Tan Boyu couldn't see it. A volume of books that stayed in the girl's soul slowly opened. When the book turned to the fourteenth page, the ink-colored handwriting was twisted and changed like life, and changed from the four words "The Emperor of the New Dynasty" to the King of Yue of the New Dynasty.

The girl in the light opened her eyes and stretched out her hand to Tan Boyu: Brother.

Behind the two people hugging each other, the man half sighed and half relieved: It turns out... this is fate.

In the first year of Yongqing, after more than ten years of war, a new dynasty was established.

Although the new emperor who ascended the throne was still an eleven-year-old child, this did not affect the joy of the people in the world at all.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, he first named his father as Gaozu, and then he posthumously named his elder brother who died before the abdication ceremony as Taizu. Although the second brother was very successful in fighting, he posthumously named King Xingxian because his achievements were not as good as the elder brother. The remaining brothers and sisters who died were also posthumously named him and promoted to the Taimiao.

There are four sons and five daughters of the Tan family. After experiencing the world, only three of them are still alive.

When people talk about this, they all say that this hero is a pity, especially Emperor Taizu. He was not called emperor because of his death, and they were used to calling him King Yue. He should have been a natural founding emperor, but unfortunately, he died at a regular time in the world. This is probably because God is not favored enough. When Emperor Gaozu was still alive, who could have expected that the person who inherited his family business in the end was his youngest son.

For Tan Boyu in the matter, these disturbances were no longer what he cared about. He and Yao Ji left the capital, and since then there are no more Tan brothers and sisters in this world, but a loving couple.

Yao Ji, who was resurrected from the dead, was still weak, so the two decided to settle in the warm and pleasant Jiangnan.

The book of reincarnation changed quietly, and Yao Ji already knew it. She didn't expect the final result to be like this. This may be exactly what Zhang Huan once said back then. The result comes from choice, and choice comes from heart.

She didn't know whether this change was good or bad, and the sudden awakening of the fragments of the Ping Yao Ling, which should be limited by the laws of the vast world, also added a layer of mystery to the change.

But all of this, whether it is hidden worries or doubts, because there is someone in the world who is willing to give up everything for her, it seems no longer important.

They finally stayed together until death separated them.

And this day came decades later. Yao Ji was lying on the sickbed, surrounded by her children and grandchildren, and the man she still loved deeply for even though her face was not there.

Brother, she stretched out her hand and stroked his cheek, Goodbye.

We will meet in another cycle of reincarnation.

Goodbye, Yaoyao.

She closed her eyes with a smile, and her right hand drooped softly.The soul escapes from the body and drifts into the empty world.She was getting farther and farther away from that man, reluctantly, but hopefully devoted herself to the new cycle of reincarnation.

Don't cry or be lonely, we will meet again soon.

She thought this way, threw her head towards the light, and her body was pulled by the force from the temptation plate. Just as she was about to fall into the light, a cold snor flashed in her ears, and then she pulled violently. In the dizzy turn, she lost consciousness.
