Run Yu was standing under the tree in a daze. Suddenly, Xufeng came over and threw a brocade pouch on the table. "For you."

Run Yu turned to look at him. "This is?"

"Open it and see."

Runyu glanced at him with a smile. "You're so mysterious."

The brocade pouch opened, and several rare medicinal herbs floated out.

Run Yu understood and pointed at Xufeng. "You brat, you went to plunder the Purple Cloud Palace again?"

Xufeng grinned. "I've been fine for a long time. You, on the other hand, were injured by the fire poison. This is a good supplement for your body."

As he said this, he leaned forward and wrapped his arms around Run Yu. He put a hand on his lower abdomen. "And this in your stomach, you need to supplement it even more."

For the past few days, Xufeng had teased him countless times, but Run Yu was still not used to it.

He pursed his lips slightly, and the corners of his eyes were blushing. He whispered, "Thank you."

Seeing him like this, Xufeng's heart suddenly melted into a pool of spring water. He lifted his chin and kissed him.

Run Yu struggled slightly and gave up. The two's lips and teeth were entwined, full of spring.

Seeing that in broad daylight, His Highness' hand was still moving lower and lower, Kuang Lu finally couldn't help but cough.

Run Yu hurriedly pushed Xu Feng away and turned around to wipe her lips with her sleeve.

"Little girl, you're getting bolder and bolder." Xufeng pointed at Kuang Lu and lectured her.

Kuang Lu coughed again and said, "When His Highness came in, he said that he was going to the drill ground. The Xuanji Palace was just passing by.

Did he change his mind and not pass by? "

Xufeng was rendered speechless. He pointed at the little girl and said helplessly, "Then I'll go to the drill ground."

"Wait." Run Yu turned around again and a small white porcelain bottle appeared in his hand. "This is Star Radiance Dew. It can relieve the remaining icicle poison in your body."

"Just in time to make tea." Xufeng was about to take a step forward when she took two steps back. She turned around and stole a kiss on Run Yu's lips. "Thank you, Madam."

After saying that, Xufeng really left. Looking from afar, his footsteps were extremely light.

The smile on Run Yu's face slowly faded as he watched him disappear through the palace gates.

Run Yu was about to return to the hall to read for a while. After taking two steps, he suddenly frowned and asked the Kuang Lu, "Did you hear crying?"

Kuang Lu listened attentively for a long time and shook her head.

Run Yu listened carefully for a while and said, "It sounds a bit like you crying."

Kuang Lu was surprised. "Me?"

Run Yu also felt that what he said was ridiculous. "Forget it, maybe I'm hearing things."

But the cries did not disperse. Later on, it was mixed with some indistinct mumbling of a human voice, like a mosquito circling Runyu all day long. Kuang Lu could not hear it no matter how hard she tried, which made Runyu's heart, which had always been as calm as water, restless.

Because Xufeng had asked for sick leave from the Celestial Ruler for him, Run Yu did not need to be on duty at night. He sat quietly in the hall and waited for Xufeng to come.

Run Yu held a book, but he could not read a word. He only pricked up his ears to listen to the movements in the courtyard.

In the silence, the vague sounds of people became louder. But when he listened carefully, he could not hear anything clearly. It was like a spell, layer upon layer. It disturbed Run Yu so much that he did not even hear Xufeng's footsteps. Xufeng had already pushed the door and came in.

Run Yu put down the book and said with a smile, "I'm late today."

Xufeng sat down opposite him and drank the tea that had been brewed on the table. He said, "You don't know. Recently, a little servant came to my Qiwu Palace. He is very interesting."

"Little servant?"

"Yes, stupid and silly. He always pretended to be smart. It's so funny." Xufeng said with a smile as he recalled.

Run Yu did not have a trace of a smile, "You're late because of a little servant?"

Xufeng felt that there was something wrong with his words. After a while, he laughed dryly and pretended to be relaxed, "It's not a big deal. Before I came, Jin Mi ate something wrong. I saved her."

When he heard the two words "Jin Mi", Run Yu suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He said sternly, "Don't mention this person to me!"

Xufeng had never seen him lose his temper. He was shocked, "Run Yu, what's wrong with you?"

Run Yu realized that he was a little impulsive just now. He wanted to apologize, but his breath was stuck in his chest. He could not say anything. His eyes were gradually filled with tears.

Xufeng saw him clutching his chest as if he was in pain. He quickly squatted in front of him and asked softly, "Okay, I won't mention it.

I have nothing to do with her. Don't be angry, okay? "

In the past, it was always Xufeng who was jealous of him. When did Run Yu forget himself for Xufeng?

It was only because he believed in Xufeng and would never make wild guesses about the people around him.

But what was wrong with him today? He did not understand. He just felt very uncomfortable and almost couldn't breathe.

Xufeng anxiously groped around his body, "Are you in pain?"

Run Yu shook his head. His tears were flowing out uncontrollably.

Xu Feng's heart ached as she pulled him into her embrace and kissed his face carelessly.

After a while, Run Yu pulled his front lapel and said, "Xufeng, I only have you. Don't leave me, okay?"

At this time, the voice that was whispering suddenly became louder. In a moment, it was like a large bell, shaking Run Yu's head.

Xufeng's mouth opened and closed, but Run Yu could not hear what he said clearly. It was all drowned out by the curse-like voice.

"Enough, stop!" Run Yu covered his ears and roared.

Everything suddenly fell silent.

This time, Run Yu finally heard what the voice was saying.

It said, "This is all a dream. Run Yu, Xufeng is dead. Stop dreaming!"

Run Yu was stunned.

Everything around him suddenly distorted rapidly. The Xuanji Palace turned into the Ninth Heaven Palace in the blink of an eye.

Xufeng in front of him was also wearing the golden armor of the War God. He was looking at him with a look of disbelief.

There was a sword stuck in his Neidan essence, and the hilt was in his hand …

Run Yu, who was lying on the bed, suddenly vomited a mouthful of black blood and slowly opened his eyes.

Seven days later, Kuang Lu and Yanyou stood at the door of the palace, watching Run Yu play chess with himself under the tree.

"What should we do?" Kuang Lu asked softly.

"What do you mean?"

"His Highness has been like this since he woke up. He doesn't eat, drink, or speak. What should we do?" Kuang Lu looked at Yanyou. "Did we do something wrong?"

Yanyou sneered and said, "If we don't wake him up, are we really going to let him sleep until the end of time?

Don't worry, His Highness is not as weak as you think. "

"But …"

Before Kuang Lu could finish her sentence, Yanyou ran to Run Yu and said carelessly, "Next game?"

Run Yu didn't even raise his head and continued the game without saying a word.

Yanyou happily sat down and played chess with Run Yu.

In the middle of the game, Yanyou's black pieces took up more than half of the board, and the white pieces were powerless to change the situation.

Yanyou said carelessly, "Tomorrow is the coronation ceremony."

Runyu's face was expressionless as he picked up another white stone.

"Run Yu, do you regret it?"

Runyu's fingers trembled, and the white chess piece fell onto the chessboard. It collided with the other chess pieces, and a crisp sound was heard.

Kuang Lu's heart trembled with the sound, and she stared nervously at Run Yu.

She looked at Yanyou and found that he was the same.

Do you regret it?

Regret revenge, regret usurping the throne, regret saving the common people, regret … killing him?

After a long time, Run Yu gently picked up the piece that had disturbed the board and held it between his fingers.

"No, I don't regret it." With a bang, the white piece fell on the board, and a crack appeared on the board. "I can't regret it either!"

The game was over, and the white pieces had completely destroyed the black pieces.

Run Yu stood up and waved his wide sleeves. "Kuang Lu, prepare the meal."

When night fell, Kuang Lu came to report that Yanyou was outside the hall and was asking for an audience.

Run Yu found it strange, but he still nodded and allowed Kuang Lu to call him in.

Unexpectedly, Yanyou knelt on the ground and curtsied as soon as he entered.

Run Yu instantly knew what he wanted to say, but he didn't allow him to rise for a long time.

Finally, Yanyou straightened himself and said, "Your Majesty, I can't go to your coronation tomorrow."

Run Yu moved his lips with difficulty. "Why?"

"There will be rewards after the coronation, but I only want to be a lake lord and live a carefree life."

"Do you remember what you said?"

"I remember. I said that I would accompany Your Majesty after everything is done.

From now on, as long as Your Majesty summons me, I will still be at your beck and call.

However, I don't want to stay here for long.

Your Majesty, please allow me to return to Lake Tai after you're done with your work. "

Run Yu closed his eyes and nodded after a long time. "Okay, I promise you."

Yanyou kowtowed again. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yanyou walked to the door of the hall and suddenly heard the person behind him say, "Let's call each other by name in the future. After all, you're my only brother."

Yanyou didn't turn around, but he nodded. When the person behind him saw this, he sighed softly.

Outside the hall, Kuang Lu was waiting. When she saw him coming out, she didn't say a word and blocked his way. Her face was full of tears.

"Why?"

Yanyou smiled bitterly. "Why do you always speak without rhyme or reason?"

"You know what I'm talking about!"

It seemed that he couldn't leave if he didn't make it clear. Yanyou sighed. "We've already come to this point. Do you still not understand?

If I stay, it will only make him suffer. "

Kuang Lu cried and shook her head. "I don't understand."

"You asked me during the day whether we did something wrong. In fact, I don't know either.

But I only know how to wake him up from his dreams and force him to face reality. I only know how to do these … things that make him suffer. "

"But you did it for His Highness's sake …"

"These are just excuses!

The truth is that I don't want to see him give up on himself because of an unworthy relationship. He shouldn't be like that!

I have my own selfish reasons. You're the only one who really cares about him. "

"But …"

Yanyou patted Kuang Lu's shoulder. "You don't have to persuade me. Run Yu has already promised me.

In the future, take good care of him. "
