As he approached, Dian Bushi turned around and found Gu Ao. His eyes were full of tears, and he looked at Gu Ao with a dull and dazed expression.After a while, he moved his lips and hissed, "My son is dead, do you know?"

Qin Chuan took a step forward, standing between Gu Ao and Dian Bushi.

Gu Ao waved his hand to let Qin Chuan back down, walked up to Dian Bushi, and sighed deeply: "Third brother, I know, so I came to see you." He put his hand on Dian Bushi's shoulder .

Dian Bushi's cheeks twitched, he stared at Gu Ao, and said hoarsely: "...unexpectedly, my Dian Bushi died of his son, no one dared to visit, the first one to come was the emperor...it was the emperor... "As Dian Bushi said, tears rolled down his eyes again... The moonlight shone in, outlining the deep wrinkles on his face, and the tears glistened on his face.

Only then did Gu Ao realize that Dian Buzhi's hair had turned white overnight.

"Since you came to see him, I will call you big brother again. Big brother, let me ask you, why do you always trust Chen Jiang and not me? Why? They poured dirty water all over me, and I can't wash it clean But you have forgiven me so many times that I have suffered so much. I am not guilty, why do you forgive me? I am not guilty, but you forgive me, it seems that I am guilty."

Hearing this, Gu Ao sighed again.

Dian Buzhi smiled wryly, and asked himself and answered: "...I know, my heart is like a mirror... because you are afraid that I will become powerful and you can't control it, so you use Chen Jiang to suppress me. I am also stupid, and I still remember you Those things about the King of Heaven that I told me before."

Gu Ao shook his head: "You shouldn't have had a secret relationship with Liao Quji. Because of this incident, I lowered you to the rank of prince. Did I blame you?"

Dian Bushi hissed and laughed: "You're right to blame me. I was big-hearted at the time, and there were rumors that you were going to make me the Taiwei King, and I lost my head all of a sudden. What Chen Jiang did at that time, I was really shocked." I couldn't see it, so I wanted to take advantage of Liao Quji's momentum to rectify the court, and then build meritorious deeds, so that the atmosphere in the court will be cleared up."

"The world will be in chaos if a military general intervenes in politics. The lessons learned from the past are clear. There are many chapters in the seven histories. I taught you, how did you forget?" After Gu Ao finished speaking, he fell silent, even if he didn't know the code.

After a while, Gu Ao said again: "You want to be the emperor, I thought about it, you can't be the emperor, why don't I do it."

Dian's incomprehensible gaze stayed on his son's coffin: "Brother...it's useless to say anything, my son is dead. I won't die, so I can't avenge him, because the eldest brother protects the second brother. I'm dead , Big Brother will have no fear, when the time comes, you will avenge me, okay?"

Gu Ao said: "Okay."

Dian Buzhi said: "Oh, I will not have a good life when you became the emperor. Tell me, big brother, if you had not been the emperor back then, but only became the king of the mountain, would we still be brothers now?"

Gu Ao also shed tears: "In fact, we have always been brothers, but the emperor has no family affairs."

Dian Buzhi smiled desolately: "Okay, okay. Brother, remember what you promised me, I will leave tonight."

***

The news of Dian Bushi's death spread to Beiyan, and it was said that the prime minister was jealous of what he had exposed and forced Suiyanghou to death.

Huai Xin thought: "The prime minister forced the death of Marquis Suiyang, and the emperor condoned him. Without the emperor's connivance, would he dare? However, the emperor condoned the prime minister for so long, not to make the prime minister powerful, but to let him attack the king of Yan. , Attack the Liao family. The prime minister thought he was the emperor's knife, but he didn't know that the emperor was waiting for the knife to show its flaws, so that the emperor could take it back. The emperor waited for so long, and now it is a matter of course to take down Chen Jiang. "I thought again: "The emperor is really old these years, otherwise why would he deal with the powerful officials one after another like arranging funerals? He wants to leave a peaceful world for his successor."

Sure enough, soon after the imperial decree came to Yan, Dingguo Duke Huaixin returned to the court and took the place of Taiwei.When Huai Xin entered Beijing, he immediately began to rectify the officials' conduct, exposing corruption and perverting the law before the imperial court, and many of the prime minister's subordinates were imprisoned.

The emperor said: "When you are old and seek the country, you are also Huai Qing."

The prime minister begged the emperor to intercede for the people under his family, and the emperor presented all the evidence of his corruption and perverting the law over the years: "Second brother, I gave you a chance, and you said, 'I will not hesitate to die', I believed you. But you still failed me after all, and I no longer trust you."

The prime minister was ashamed, so he dismissed his office and returned home. Soon he died of depression and illness. Before he died, he shouted: "If the minister has a heart of disloyalty, the sky will hate it! The sky will hate it!" He died of exhaustion.

After that, hundreds of people under the prime minister's family were all sent to prison.

Since then, the emperor has often called Anguo Gong Liao Qinghui into the palace to talk about the art of immortality.

***

Yu Junfan's illness became more and more serious, Gu Ao would allocate time every day to be with Yu Junfan, and later he simply let Yu Junfan move into the palace.During this day and night, Yu Junfan turned his body and called out: "Brother Ao..."

Gu Ao hurriedly got up and lit a lamp: "I'm here, I'm here, how do you feel?" Gu Ao put the lamp on the bedside, and then held Yu Junfan's hand tightly. thin.

Yu Junfan said softly: "...Help me up, okay?"

Gu Ao nodded, supported Yu Junfan and sat up, Yu Junfan sighed: "I want to drink water."

Gu Ao turned around and poured water for Yu Junfan, and Yu Junfan drank the water with Gu Ao's hand.He lowered his head, and Gu Ao stared at him. Over the years, Yu Junfan's hair has gradually turned gray, hanging behind his head, tied with a rope.He was dressed in white, which complemented Xiao Ran even more.

Yu Junfan sighed and said, "Brother Ao, my days are numbered, I want to talk to you, okay?"

Gu Ao's eyes were red: "Don't say that, let's treat it slowly, slowly... we can..." Yu Junfan pressed Gu Ao's lips lightly with his finger, and shook his head: "I know that I am If you don’t talk about yourself now, you won’t have a chance in the future.”

Gu Ao burst into tears: "Jun Fan..."

Yu Junfan wiped Gu Ao's tears with his hand, and smiled: "Okay... okay..." Yu Junfan touched Gu Ao's face and said, "You are old..."

"People are going to grow old." Gu Ao said.

Yu Junfan smiled: "But I still remember when I was young."

Gu Ao said: "I also remember."

Yu Junfan said: "...Tell me, why did you like me in the first place? And why did you want to stay with me for the rest of your life?"

"I've always liked you...you look like you're riding on a horse with a halberd on your back. It's very beautiful. I've seen it and remembered it in my heart." Gu Ao choked up.

Yu Junfan smiled and looked at Gu Ao: "So, it's not because I'm the prefect of Qianzhong, holding a powerful soldier?"

"Jun Fan...Why do you have to go back to the source? At the beginning you got close to me and promised me, wasn't it for the peace of the world? But I fell in love with you, and I don't regret it." Said Gu Ao hugged Yu Junfan: "Jun Fan... I don't regret it."

Yu Junfan also hugged Gu Ao back: "I don't regret it... Brother Ao, I still want to spend more time with you... But I don't have much time."

"Jun Fan..." Gu Ao looked at the person in front of him with tears in his eyes.

Yu Junfan touched Gu Ao's face: "Don't be sad after I'm gone."

Gu Ao shook his head and said: "You are gone...what do you want me to do...what do you want me to do...we two are one, you take Tiangang with you, I am greedy to kill wolves. Tiangang is gone...the man who kills wolves How long can I stay..."

Yu Junfan smiled: "Brother Ao, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." He sighed after speaking: "Brother Ao...I'm so tired...I'm so tired, I'll sleep..."

Yu Junfan fell asleep in Gu Ao's arms, and never woke up again.

Taiwei Wang died, the emperor was sad and seriously ill.The government was entrusted to Dingguo Gong Huaixin.

In the next year, tribal riots suddenly broke out in Yandi. Prince Gu Jiang refused to listen to advice and fought fiercely head-on.

When the emperor heard that his condition was getting worse, he urgently sent his younger brother Gu Qian to guard Yan.

In the autumn of that year, the emperor appointed his eldest grandson, Gu Yuan, as grandson, and made his second grandson, Gu Xiao, king of Qin.

***

When Tian Qi was 15 years old, Gu Ao met Gu Xiao for the first time after he grew up.

Gu Ao was a little surprised by Gu Xiao's appearance.Because Gu Xiao looks like himself when he was a teenager, and also like the young Liao Quji.

Gu Ao also had a predestined relationship with him.

Liao Quji, who was originally imprisoned as a commoner, was often harassed by the prime minister's disciples. One day, the seven-year-old Gu Xiao stood at the gate of Liao Quji's mansion with a sword and clashed with them. Gu Xiao reprimanded: " My grandfather is a relative of the emperor, and the world belongs to my ancient family, so how dare you move me?"

After Gu Ao heard about it, he immediately sent someone to bring Gu Xiao into the palace.Gu Xiao was young, but his face was full of sternness. He was led by Xin Shi and came to Gu Ao. If the emperor wants to punish me, just punish me."

However, Gu Xiao took a step forward: "Grandpa Huang wants to punish me, so I should. Don't do anything to her."

But Gu Ao smiled: "What did I punish you for? You did it right... Come here!" Gu Ao waved his hand, and Gu Xiao threw himself into Gu Ao's arms, "Grandfather..."

Gu Ao said: "Xiao'er, will you stay with Grandpa in the palace from now on?"

Gu Xiao nodded: "Okay."

Gu Ao said to Xin Shi, "Go back."

Gu Ao is old, and he has countless hours to accompany his grandson, teach him, and tell him stories.Just like Gu Ben in the past, Gu Ben gave all his kindness to his youngest son, Gu Ao, and Gu Ao gave all his kindness to Gu Xiao.

One day Gu Xiao was playing with wooden swords in the room, Gu Ao accompanied him, Gu Xiao looked up and asked: "Grandpa, is the key to the world in the military?"

Gu Ao laughed and said, "Xiao'er thinks he's in the army?"

Gu Xiao said: "However, the book I borrowed from Shan Yun Academy said that it is common in Ping Shi."

Gu Ao shook his head and looked at Gu Xiao with a smile.

Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows: "Is it like some sour scholars say, the key to the world lies in the imperial examination?"

Gu Ao said: "It's not right."

"Where is that?" Gu Xiao asked.

"In plowing and war, plowing is the equalization of the land, and war is the government soldiers. As for the common people and the imperial examinations, they are all ostentatious, and they are done for people to see and for people to hear."

"Oh, so it is."

Gu Xiao threw his sword and ran away in a hurry.

***

In the 25th year of Apocalypse, Grandson Gu Yuan supervised the country, and King Qin Gu Xiao was in charge of the Forbidden Army.

Gu Ao was seriously ill, sleeping for a while and waking up for a while.

Gu Ao woke up that day and shouted, "Qin Chuan!"

No one answered, Gu Ao called out again: "Where is Qin Chuan?"

Huai Xin's voice sounded from outside: "The chief guard is on leave." Huai Xin no longer wore black clothes, but was wearing a Taiwei's official uniform, luxurious and eye-catching, majestic, like his father Huai Jinsong.

Gu Ao struggled to prop up his body, Huai Xin took a few steps forward to help Gu Ao up, Gu Ao said: "Huaiqing, why are you here?"

Huai Xin poured water for Gu Ao and handed it in front of Gu Ao, but Gu Ao shook his head and didn't drink.

Huai Xin smiled, put the water cup on the table at hand, and said: "I issued an order in your name, dispatched the army, controlled Shangjing, and also controlled the palace. Grandson Guyuan is in my hands .”

Gu Ao froze for a moment, then recovered after a while, glanced at Huai Xin, coughed: "...in my name?"

"In your name, you want to save more." Huai Xin said.

Gu Ao said in a daze, "I want to save more?"

"Yes."

Gu Ao's voice trembled, and the uncontrollable anger seemed to be wandering all over his body: "...I think something is wrong with Gu Xiao, so the person behind him is you! That year, he went to Liao Quji's place, and it was you who An idea? Let him get my attention?"

Huai Xin was startled, and shook her head: "I never take any risky tricks, he did it by himself. I was going to find someone to teach him, but I didn't expect to be accepted into the palace by you."

Gu Ao sneered: "By the way, why don't you call me the emperor, and don't call yourself a minister?"

Huai Xin raised her eyebrows: "You have always been Brother Ao in my heart, never the emperor." As she spoke, Huai Xin stretched out her hand and touched Gu Ao's forehead. After wiping it away, he said in a slow voice: "Over the years, you have grown old, arrogant and proud, and your policies have been biased. It's just for the younger generation to change and win people's hearts."

Seeing that Gu Ao was silent, Huai Xin put away the handkerchief, and said: "In my life, I have lost to Yu Junfan in everything I do. But when it comes to cultivating the emperor's heir, my vision is much higher than his. Feeling blinded He caught his eye, he likes you, so he chose the heir to the throne who is most like you... But Gu Jiang is really unbearable. When I taught him so much in Yandi, he didn't listen to it at all. He didn't Your talent and boldness are exactly the same as your bullish temper."

Gu Ao's lips trembled: "...you... Jiang'er's death, could it be..."

Huai Xin supported Gu Ao: "Brother Ao, don't do this, it's not good for your health." Gu Ao wanted to push Huai Xin away, but Huai Xin said: "...It's not me. But I stayed in Yandi for too long , I know how difficult and dangerous it is there, and I also know that as long as I'm not around, something will happen to him sooner or later... But I didn't tell you."

"you……"

"Okay, okay, if you get angry with me again, I'll leave."

Gu Ao coughed violently, Huai Xin sat on the side, patted Gu Ao's shoulder leisurely and gently.

"I have been in poor health since I was a child, but I didn't expect that I lived the longest, and finally watched you go one by one."

Gu Ao coughed up blood, Huai Xin wiped Gu Ao's blood and gave him water.

Huai Xin raised her hand to twist Gu Ao's hair: "Look at you... your hair is all white."

Gu Ao smiled wryly and started coughing again.

"Is it so hard to talk to me?" Huai Xin said softly, "Sleep a little longer, I'll come see you tomorrow."

Said Huai Xin left, looking at Huai Xin's back, Gu Ao was in a trance for a moment, he suddenly remembered the first time he met Huai Xin, that green bamboo, that black stone... and Shanyun Academy ... When he was excluded, it was Huai Xin who helped him.Now, he has to pay off the debt.

Half-dream and half-awake, I heard the sound of the guards fighting outside, and the sound of people's footsteps, one after another.

Qin Chuan stepped into Gu Ao's bedroom covered in blood, and said, "Your Majesty, the person you want to see has been brought to you."

Gu Ao nodded, and Liao Qinghui, who was standing beside Qin Chuan, took a step forward and helped Gu Ao up, Gu Ao said in a hoarse voice, "...you're here?"

Liao Qinghui smiled lightly: "Your Majesty, I'm here."

Gu Ao laughed and said, "Last time you told me that you want to know what it is like to become an immortal, do you know now?"

Liao Qinghui said: "I know. I've been searching for a long time, I've been searching for a lifetime, and finally I know." Liao Qinghui had fine lines at the corners of his eyes, and when he spoke, the fine lines were slightly curved, but the color of his pupils was clearer. He half knelt beside Gu Ao's bed : "When I was young, my father thought about how to make alchemy and ascend to heaven every day. I often thought, can he really become a fairy like that? I think that is ridiculous, and I don't think he can become a fairy. When I was young, I watched a lot. Xia, I know that there is also a war between heaven and man and Asura. Heaven and man stop the war with war, and there are countless living people. At that time, the emperor was fighting against the army in the north. , what my father is looking for may be in the outside world, not in alchemy."

Gu Ao nodded.

Liao Qinghui said: "Actually, I'm very timid. When I was young, I couldn't even bear to kill animals, but at that time there was a force pushing me forward.... Following the emperor, I learned a lot, learned how to fight, and how to govern the country. , and also learned to kill people. Although I didn't understand it clearly at that time, I vaguely knew that the emperor lived countless people and resisted foreign aggression. Forward."

Gu Ao interrupted: "But I also killed countless people."

Liao Qinghui continued: "The emperor leveled the world. When I went back to Hejian, I went to my father's study, and suddenly realized that I was the same as him. In fact, I was very similar to him. He didn't care about world affairs, he just wanted to be successful." Immortal, I don't care about the changes in the family, but I only follow the King of Han to resist the army. In fact, the reason is similar. He seeks to become an immortal, and the way is inside the door. I seek to become an immortal, and the way is outside the door. I don't want to be an official anymore, because I don't think that can become a fairy."

"Then have you found a way to become an immortal now?"

Liao Qinghui smiled: "Over the years, I have been looking for hermits and immortals, and traveled all over famous mountains and rivers. Finally, I found that immortals are not in the mountains, but in the world. As long as we can support a peaceful world, it is like casting a spell on the filthy world. Immortal."

Gu Ao nodded: "So you promised me and came back with Qin Chuan."

"Yes."

Gu Ao asked Qin Chuan, "How is it outside now?"

Qin Chuan said: "It turns out that the emperor's younger brother Gu Qian died of illness in Yandi last month. He was afraid that Yandi's army's morale would be shaken, so he kept his mourning secret. The Taiwei suppressed this matter."

Gu Ao said: "I also think, maybe something happened to Gu Qian, otherwise Huai Xin would dare to touch Gu Yuan."

Qin Chuan continued: "Dian Biao has now commanded the military in Yan."

"I see."

At this time, there was a voice outside the door, Qin Chuan said with a wry smile: "When I came in, I dragged many old friends to help, but I didn't expect that the alarm was still big. Your Majesty, someone is here."

The door opened with a bang, and I saw Gu Xiao was covered in battle armor and entered the room, followed by Huai Xin with a gloomy face, and behind him were all guards.

The sunlight shot in from Gu Xiao's back, tracing his glowing outline, and Gu Xiao's battle armor was stained with bright red, and he was holding a young head in his hand, which was dripping blood continuously.For a moment, Gu Ao looked at the person coming and almost thought it was Liao Quji.

Looking at the head, Gu Ao couldn't bear to look at it, and closed his eyes.

Gu Xiao came to Gu Ao's bed in a few steps, and smiled: "Grandfather wants to see the old minister, just tell his grandson, why did he fall down in the palace and see blood with the guards? It scared the grandson, The grandson was shocked and killed his brother."

Gu Ao sighed and said: "You all go out, I have a few words to say to Xiao'er."

Gu Xiao said to Huai Xin: "You all go out."

So everyone went out, Huai Xin closed the door.

Gu Ao beckoned and said, "Xiao'er, come here."

Gu Xiao walked over, and Gu Ao said: "Last night, I dreamed of the battlefield, and there were shouts of killing and the sound of horseshoes everywhere. Before Jun Fan left, he told me that he also dreamed of the sound of killing, and there was a scene everywhere." Purgatory on earth... I also dreamed about it, and now, my life is not long."

Gu Xiao put the head aside, knelt down in front of Gu Ao, held Gu Ao's hand, and said softly: "Grandpa, I know, the imperial doctor also said so. They said, you can't survive these three days .”

Gu Ao smiled wryly: "You have already asked so clearly?"

Gu Xiao looked at Gu Ao: "Grandpa Huang, actually Xiao'er really misses you."

Gu Ao sighed: "...the emperor's grandfather is old, and he handles many things very biasedly, but what can be done? In this world, the ruler has been replaced, which time is not a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood? Emperor Yongchi Usurping the throne is not counted. He just changed the people at the front, but not the people who ruled. Therefore, he did not kill as many people as I did. I have taken away so many people's land, can they not hate me? I ruined How can they not blame me? Those people support you, but not Gu Yuan, so you can get a glimpse of how much hatred and resentment they have in their hearts. But you are different, you are the new king, It's killing brothers and seizing the throne again, for them, you are different from me, everything, you can start all over again."

Gu Xiao nodded, "Grandfather, I understand, this is the world of our Gu family, I just use them."

Gu Ao said: "I've dealt with all the power and important ministers for you, and I left you a minister who takes care of your life to restrain Huai Xin. That's your uncle Liao Qinghui."

Gu Xiao was taken aback for a moment: "...Grandpa Huang...you guessed that I want to..."

Gu Ao nodded: "I guessed it." He shook his head again: "But I didn't expect you to be so impatient, I didn't expect my body to collapse so quickly, and Jun Fan left in such a hurry."

"Grandpa Emperor..."

Gu Ao sighed, "What are you waiting for? Take my great seal, and while I'm still breathing, write the imperial decree and pass it on to you."

"Yes."

Gu Xiao immediately placed the prepared silk, brush, and big seal in front of Gu Ao.Gu Ao quickly wrote the imperial decree, but when pressing the big seal, Gu Ao suddenly fell down.

"Grandpa Huang...Grandpa Huang..." Gu Xiao hurriedly took a step forward, hugged Gu Ao, and helped him to lie down.

Gu Ao let out a long sigh: "Ao is a steed, and the five elements belong to fire. Xiao is heavy rain, and the five elements belong to water. You complement my five elements, so I dote on you the most. Before I die, I want to see you. But you are here , the fire is out, and I'm leaving."

Gu Xiao shed tears: "...Grandpa Huang, do you blame me, do you blame me?"

Gu Ao raised his hand with difficulty, and touched Gu Xiao's face: "...you are a good emperor, I don't blame you, I don't blame you..."

Gu Ao's hand dropped, and Gu Xiao cried out.
