The warm breeze is blowing and the flowers are fragrant in spring.

Shang Ruyi sat by the window, looking at the blue sky outside the window. From time to time, the wind carrying the fragrance of flowers blew by. In normal times, such scenery and weather would already make people feel at ease.

But now, it felt like a big stone was weighing on her heart, and this big stone was getting heavier day by day.

Ever since this unhappy day, Chu Yang didn't come to see her again for two consecutive days.

In fact, she didn't think it was necessary for her to accompany him every day. Although Chu Yang said that he found her just to accompany him to enjoy the beautiful scenery, it was not something that someone like her could really put down and enjoy.

of.

not to mention--

While she was contemplating, two palace maids came over with tea and cakes in their hands, whispering something as they walked.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Who lied to you?"

"Your Majesty really killed people in the main hall? This has never happened before."

"……What?"

When he raised his head, he met a pair of red eyes - those slender phoenix eyes were shining with an almost boiling light, as if a flame would ignite at any moment.

He is using that luxurious life to soothe his restless heart.

Now, even he has rebelled.

Shang Ruyi's heart tightened.

The water that had washed the ground was actually stained blood red.

The blood red there is extremely deep and dazzling.

Shang Ruyi thought for a moment and said, "I'll go over and take a look. Don't run around."

Shang Ruyi frowned when he heard this.

Xue Xian......

Although Daxing City had been idle since Chu Yang ascended the throne, it was the capital of the Daye Dynasty after all. The fall of the Eastern Capital would only be the gain or loss of a city. But if Daxing City was captured, the people of the Daye Dynasty would lose all their power.

The existence in my heart was completely destroyed!

Shang Ruyi asked hurriedly: "Then, what are your Majesty's plans?"

Chu Yang was startled and turned to look at her.

"His Majesty!"

"..."

Shang Ruyi had heard of this man. He was also from a famous family in Hedong. He had a majestic appearance, strong martial arts, rich family assets, and he was generous and generous. He made friends with many heroes. Although his official reputation was not good, his strength was very strong, and it was true that he was not

A person who has lived under others for a long time.

As soon as the two people came over, they happened to see Shang Ruyi sitting by the window. They were stunned for a moment and hurriedly leaned over to salute. Shang Ruyi frowned and looked at them: "What did you just say? Who was killed? What did your Majesty do?

?”

Shang Ruyi said softly: "I heard them say something happened here, so I came over to take a look."

Chu Yang's heart beat violently for a moment. He couldn't control his manic mood, but at this moment it became even more agitated. His eyes were almost red. He turned to face her, breathing hot, with a little bit of uncontrollable emotion.

:"you--"

He looked at her, and then at the hand she was holding on to his hand. The slender jade-like fingers were a little spasmodic due to excessive tension, but the feeling of skin touching each other still made his mind wander.

The world has reached this point, and he can't do anything to restore it, but he is too proud to admit it, let alone face his own failure.

Therefore, he wants to succeed, he wants the "success" in front of him.

Eunuch Yu nodded.

After saying that, she left in a hurry.

"What's more terrible is,"

"I heard it with my own ears. I heard that the ministers were begging for mercy, but His Majesty didn't listen at all."

Eunuch Yu said: "Then, your Majesty believed it. The Minister of War, the Young Minister of Honglu Temple, and several other adults argued hard, hoping that Your Majesty could quickly return to aid Daxing City, but Your Majesty not only refused to listen, but also——"

Shang Ruyi knelt outside the hall, listening to the heavy breathing above her head. Then she saw the clothes rolling in front of her, and the pair of white Zhiyu walking shoes walked in front of her again. She could even feel the slender pair

Her phoenix eyes were looking at herself intently.

"I just thought of something. Tomorrow's Cold Food Festival cannot be passed like this. We should decorate the entire Jiangdu Palace, not only the inner palace, but also the Guangming Hall. Everything here should be decorated as I

The way you want it.”

Eunuch Yu first made a grimace, and then said bitterly: "Your Majesty asked the people below whether the war was true or false. As a result, some people actually said that these reports were deliberately exaggerating the strength of the rebels and the danger of the situation, and wanted to

In exchange for military merit."

Shang Ruyi's hands and feet felt numb for a while.

She took a deep breath, held up the hem of her skirt and walked up slowly. Although she walked very carefully, her feet were still wearing exquisite ori-feather shoes, and soon they were stained red by the blood flowing down.

"...!"

She finally made it to the main hall, and then she saw that the door was indeed closed, and Eunuch Yu and several young eunuchs were standing outside anxiously, not daring to go in or back away.

Shang Ruyi said: "I have something I want to tell your Majesty."

Just when she was so nervous that her breath was suffocated, Chu Yang suddenly leaned over, grabbed her wrist and pulled her up.

"...?!"

When I was having a headache, I turned around and saw Shang Ruyi, and immediately seemed to see a savior: "Madam, are you here?"

"..."

The water slowly flowed down along the Danbi and steps, rolling up layers of blood waves.

When Shang Ruyi walked in and took a look, his hands and feet felt cold.

"In this way, we can have a good outing and enjoy the spring. This is what spring should be like."

The more he spoke, the more urgent he became. Shang Ruyi could even feel that the hand holding his wrist was trembling, as if because of excitement, or possibly fear.

Because he already knew the way to go when he saw Cheng Qiao last time, Shang Ruyi quickly followed the corridor to the side of the square in front of the main hall. As soon as he walked to the square, he heard the rushing water in front of him.

There was a sound, and when I looked up, I saw a few young eunuchs above the main hall, pouring water with buckets to clean the floor.

Shang Ruyi was startled and looked up at him in disbelief.

Emperor, kill people in public!

Although these days, she has seen the madness hidden under Chu Yang's calm joy. Moreover, the more he consumes people's energy and the more extravagant his life, the greater the degree of madness. He is like a man who is already heading towards the cliff.

The people walking on the side not only did not stop at this moment, but also moved forward faster.

He actually came out on his own!

Did Chu Yang hear what they were talking about just now?

Will he get angry at them like he did those ministers, or even punish them?

Shang Ruyi thought for a while and asked: "So, what about now?"

"What?"

However, killing someone at a court meeting is simply crazy!

Eunuch Yu's voice was even lower. Even if the doors and windows were closed, he seemed to be afraid that his words would reach the ears of the people in the hall and lead to death: "After Xue Xian raised his army, countless people went to join him.

In just half a month, hundreds of thousands of troops gathered. Now, they have defeated General Huangfu Ding who went to put down the rebellion, and have taken control of Longxi. It seems that the next step is to go to Guanzhong."

"..."

At this time, everyone outside the palace was shocked, especially Eunuch Yu and Shang Ruyi who had been talking just now. They fell to their knees with a bang, and the other little eunuchs who were flushing the ground with buckets also knelt down.

Pour into the blood.

Or, it's both.

She asked: "What then?"

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Hi……"

Eunuch Yu nodded, and then lowered his voice and said to her: "If it is a small group of rebels, that's it. The most important thing is that Xue Xian, the captain of Jincheng Prefecture, killed the county magistrate Lin Xiaoyi and started a rebellion. This person,

He is not simple."

"I'll let them do it now, and everything must be done before tonight!"

Shang Ruyi gasped again.

Shang Ruyi let out a long sigh.

Shang Ruyi opened his eyes wide: "You mean, Xue Xian wants to take over Daxing City?!"

Although Eunuch Yu did not say it explicitly, she understood to some extent that this "someone" must be Wang Shaoji.

Seeing him taking a step forward and about to issue an order, Shang Ruyi suddenly stretched out his other hand and grabbed the hand that was holding her wrist: "Your Majesty!"

Shang Ruyi could almost imagine how those adults were dragged out of the hall and beheaded as a warning in front of everyone. Their blood was just washed away. The so-called blood of loyal ministers turned green in three years, but

However, their blood could not turn green. In the eyes of the emperor, it was just pools of blood.

Chu Yang looked at her with burning eyes: "Say."

He could no longer say anything else, he just sighed and looked at the ground not far away.

Chu Yang smiled at her and said, "You came just in time."

Shang Ruyi could guess without even asking: "Is there someone rebelling again?"

This seemed to be the first time for both of them - she took the initiative to hold his hand.

"His Majesty……"

Eunuch Yu sighed and lowered his voice and said, "Today, several more states and counties have sent urgent reports."

At this moment, the door in front of them suddenly clanged, and both of them were startled. When they turned around, they saw the palace door slowly opening, and Chu Yang's thin and handsome silhouette emerged from the dark light in the hall.

Slowly it became clearer.

The maid said: "I heard that the ministers have dispersed, but His Majesty is still in the main hall, closing the doors and windows and not allowing anyone to enter. Eunuch Yu and the others are busy outside."

The two palace maids looked at each other and did not dare to lie. One of them could only say cautiously: "I just heard what the old palace guard said. Your Majesty finally went to court today. However, it seems that several adults said that Your Majesty does not love you."

If you listen, His Majesty will have them all chopped off on the spot."

Shang Ruyi looked at him, then at the people around him who were kneeling and shivering in the blood, took a deep breath and said, "Let's go into the hall and talk, okay?"

"..."

Chu Yang also looked at her for a while. The smile on his face showed a kind of pure childishness in the blood steaming around him. He nodded: "Okay."

After saying that, he took Shang Ruyi's hand and turned around and entered the main hall.
