In the backyard room, the fifth prince Liu Pu's brows were tightly knitted together. He didn't know whether it was because of the pain all over his body or because he thought of something unhappy.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes.
His whole body was dripping with sweat, and the smell of blood still lingered all over his body.
"Xiao Wu." Liu Qing stood up suddenly and looked at him excitedly, "You finally woke up."
Liu Pu suffered an extremely serious injury this time, which was life-threatening. He almost died. Even if he was diagnosed and treated by a doctor with superb medical skills, the chance of waking up was not high. It not only depends on the recovery of the injury, but also on Liu Pu's recovery.
His own will to live. However, the doctor stated at the time that Liu Pu’s will to live was very low, so the last hope lay in the recovery of his injuries.
Simply put, although he wanted to die, his body was too strong and he managed to recover a lot in a short period of time.
Although he was still unable to move and had no fighting ability, at least his injuries were no longer life-threatening.
Hearing Liu Qing's excited voice, the fifth prince Liu Pu frowned and then said calmly: "Please go out, I don't want to see you."
Liu Qing opened her mouth, but seeing Liu Pu's indifferent expression, her thousands of words turned into a sigh, and her mouth was filled with bitterness, and she finally walked out of the room laughing at herself.
He didn't know what to say.
Back then, Liu Pu's mother was just a palace maid. He accidentally took her daughter's breast while drunk, and accidentally hit the target with a shot. Later, the fifth prince Liu Pu existed. But this
The palace maid had an average appearance and average talent, so Liu Qing paid no attention to her anymore. He only rewarded her with a place as a noble concubine, which meant that she was responsible for her own affairs.
Over the past twenty years, Liu Qing had only met her a few times. Rather than being ignored, it was better to say that she was directly thrown into the cold palace.
Although she heard that she was living a hard life, Liu Qing didn't take it to heart. After all, she was just a palace maid, and she gave her the title of noble concubine. Liu Qing felt that she had done her best, and at most she was just a little nicer to her son.
, invited famous teachers to teach him, and occasionally urged him to study, but most of his attention fell on the prince and others.
Originally, in his opinion, there was nothing wrong with this.
It was only after experiencing last night's rape incident that he understood something deeply.
He blames himself and regrets that, except for the blood relationship, he has almost no family relationship with the child. It is not the child's fault, but his fault as the father!
It's because he has obstacles in his heart, because he can't let go of his own face, and because he values false appearances and a flashy world.
The two father and son, who should have been close to each other, are now strangers.
However, at a critical moment of life and death, this child with whom he had almost no family ties was willing to sacrifice his life for him. What prompted the child to make such a choice? Father's love, righteousness, or for his mother?
No matter what the purpose was, Liu Qing only knew that Liu Pu almost died from random gunshots in order to save himself.
"There are two things I regret most in this life. One is not taking good care of you and **, and the other is not really caring about Xiao Qi." Liu Qing slowly closed her eyes and murmured softly, "
Now that I am no longer the emperor, I feel more relaxed than ever. Perhaps, I should not have been in that position."
But it's no use thinking about it now.
He shook his head, sighed, and a smile slowly appeared on his face: "Nothing is important anymore. In this life, Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi are enough."
Xiaowu is Liu Pu.
Xiaoqi is Liu Yun.
Of course, in fact, Liu Pu is not the youngest prince, but the fourth prince is the youngest prince, and he is only a few years old. But at the beginning, the fourth prince cried loudly and said that he would not be Liu Pu's younger brother, and he would not be called Liu Pu's brother even if he died.
, and the fourth prince was the son of the empress. Judging from the emperor's love for the empress at that time, this innocuous little matter could be settled with just one sentence, so Xiao Wu became synonymous with Liu Pu.
Xiaoqi was originally the nickname of the second princess, but there is also an allusion here. It is said that in ancient times far away from today, there was a fairy-like princess, ranked seventh, with coexistence of wisdom and beauty, and she was with the hero of that time.
The unparalleled Prince Consort led countless masters to repel the demon clan, and defeated the demon clan steadily. He is an indelible hero in the history of the Sient Empire!
Although the queen was favored at that time, she did not give birth to the fourth prince, so another concubine was also very popular with the emperor, and that was Liu Yun's mother.
I don’t know where this girl heard the story about the Seventh Princess, and she kept pretending to be the Seventh Princess instead of the Eighth Princess. So unfortunately, the Second Princess became the Eighth Princess, and Liu Yun, who was younger than her, became the Eighth Princess.
Xiao Qi.
Originally this was just a joke, but over time, everyone got used to it and no one bothered to investigate the issue of this title.
Although Liu Yun's mother was favored, Liu Qing didn't like this daughter very much, because this daughter really didn't have the nobility, elegance, and grandeur of the royal family. Instead, she was like a rogue in the market, not doing her job all day long, fighting, gathering people to gamble, etc.
Wait, she almost did it all, so the emperor finally chose to sacrifice her.
It was these two children who he disliked the most, but they were the ones who accompanied him to the end!
The sky was getting brighter and brighter, and Liu Qing stood in the yard, slightly lost in thought.
"Back then, you were obsessed with the throne. Although I thought I was more suitable for this position, for the sake of the relationship between our brothers, I took the initiative to give in." At some point, Liu Sheng came behind him, "Although many of the decisions you made were
Incorrect, but you are the emperor, and I have no right to accuse you. Now, although you have woken up, it is too late."
Liu Qing figured it out and said openly: "No, it's not too late. At least, I still have these two children."
Liu Sheng was startled, then smiled: "It seems that you have really figured it out." His tone was full of relief.
"Second brother, thank you." Liu Qing said sincerely.
Shrugging, Liu Sheng was noncommittal and said with a faint smile: "What's next? What are you going to do?"
When this question was mentioned, Liu Qing could only smile bitterly and said: "Now that the imperial power is divided, I have been ignored and I am just a puppet. What else can I do?"
"Sigh." Liu Sheng didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only sigh helplessly.
"Are you willing to watch the people who betrayed you go unpunished? Are you willing to see the Sient Empire, which has been prosperous for countless years, torn apart? Are you willing to just ignore the ten thousand-year-old foundation and be destroyed in your own hands? Are you willing to live your life every day by various forces?
The days of hunting? Do you want your two children to suffer with you?"
At this time, a faint voice came from the side.
"Who!?" Liu Qing and Liu Sheng were startled at the same time and turned their heads away.
What caught my eye was a young man, about twenty-five or six years old, dressed a little strangely. It was he who spoke just now.
Hearing this, the young man smiled lightly and said, "An enthusiastic person, that's all."
"Who are you?" Liu Sheng stared at the young man closely. This was the backyard of Qiyetian. This person actually walked in here without alerting anyone, and even heard the conversation between the two of them. If the other party hadn't spoken,
, they still don’t know that there is another person beside them. Undoubtedly, this is a master, an extremely terrifying master.
Although Liu Sheng is not a king-level expert, he is infinitely close to it!
To be able to hide from his induction, this person's strength is at least at the Jun level! Moreover, it is not as simple as entering the Jun level for the first time. As far as he knows, the fifth prince Liu Pu, who has just entered the Jun level, is far from being able to hide.
Turn on your own sensitivity!
"Well, since you want to know so much, I'll tell you." The young man said playfully, "I am the mysterious ascetic monk that you sent many people to look for."
Liu Qing was shocked: "Are you that young ascetic monk?"
"It's true." The young man readily admitted.
Liu Sheng asked: "You just said that you are an enthusiastic person. What do you mean?"
The young man smiled slightly: "I can help you, kill them, or capture them alive, you choose. With my strength, it shouldn't be difficult, right? How about you nod, and I will take action immediately."
"Why are you helping us?" Liu Qing stared at the young man, "Don't tell me you are enthusiastic, I don't believe such nonsense."
"Hahaha~ha!"
The young man laughed, nodded immediately, and said: "Yes, if you want me to help you, you can, but you must agree to me a condition first. If you agree to me, I will help. If you don't agree, then just pretend that I didn't say anything.
.”
"You tell me first and listen." Liu Qing said calmly.
"My condition is that after all the rebels are dealt with, you must pass the throne to Liu Yun and make her the first queen in history!" The young man said seriously, with a very firm tone, "As long as you agree, I will not only
It can help you get rid of these rebels, and it can also help you get rid of some of the demon masters. Please note that all the human masters have been lost, but there are still many demon masters left. If the demon masters now learn about the news from the human side,
, I’m afraid the end of mankind will soon come.”
Hearing this, Liu Qing and Liu Sheng's expressions changed drastically.
They actually forgot about the threat from the demon clan. After living in peace for too long, they almost forgot about the biggest threat to mankind!
As the young man said, once the monsters pass through the Blackwater Forest, the end of mankind will come.
However, violating the rules set by his ancestors is tantamount to bullying his master and destroying his ancestors. How could Liu Qing do it!
On one side are the human beings of the Senter Empire and even the entire continent, and on the other side are the rules set by our ancestors. How should we choose?
"What are you still hesitating about? If the empire is gone, our ancestors will really die with their eyes open!" Liu Sheng shouted at the side, hating that iron is not as strong as steel.
"But." Liu Qing was still hesitant.
"It's nothing, third brother, do you still want to follow the same old path and continue the mistakes of the past?" Liu Sheng said in an angry tone.
His words were like a wake-up call, waking up Liu Qing.
"Okay! I agree to your terms!" Liu Qing made her decision instantly.
But he still had no idea in his heart. Is the young ascetic monk in front of him really that capable? This man looked to be only in his mid-twenties, about the same age as Xiao Wu.
Reaching the Lord level is already an incredible miracle. Could he be more powerful than Xiao Wu? (To be continued.)
