The deep winter night is particularly frightening, and the sound of the bell ringing in the distance is long and long, as if the people in the entire imperial city announced that the time has entered a new year.

Yuan Jia hunched his back and walked in front of him with a palace lantern.

At his age, he almost stopped doing things by himself, and he always ordered his subordinates to do it.

"Third Highness, you must rest well, take good care of yourself, and recover as soon as possible."

As he walked, Yuan Jia whispered: "Since the battle at Hangu Pass last year, His Majesty has often been unable to sleep well, and often wakes up in the middle of the night. handle government affairs."

Zong Luo was startled.

It's no wonder that when he secretly raised his eyes to look at Emperor Yuan just now, he noticed that his father's eyes were covered with black and blue marks, not like he had stayed up all day and night.

"When His Highness came back, His Majesty's happiness was almost in our eyes. Those of us who are servants of His Majesty can feel it. Not to mention these days, His Majesty has been talking about you and caring about your eyes."

"But if the royal father really cares about me, why don't you tell me?"

Zong Luo has been holding this question in his mind for a long time.

The Yuan Emperor in this life is so different from the previous one, he could still be indifferent at first. But whether it's asking for a doctor, earnestly looking for medicine, or giving a witch medicine elixir, everything points to the same thing, something Zongluo has been begging for in his last life but never got.

Can you really get a completely different attitude from your previous life if you escape once?

Zongluo has thought so many times, and he knows it well.

impossible.

For a monarch like Emperor Yuan, it was impossible.

However, the only possibility, Zong Luo dared not guess, let alone think about it.

It's just that too many things happened tonight in Shou Sui, so much that it made his heart sway, and he even dared to ask this question.

After a long time, Yuan Jia sighed: "Third Highness, His Majesty once ordered the old slave to die, and the old slave can't reveal the slightest bit. So let's wait for His Majesty to tell you about this issue in person."

Zong Luo couldn't express his disappointment, nodded, and heard Yuan Jia say: "But the old slave can tell you something, just listen to it, don't tell your majesty, otherwise, your majesty will punish the old servant's sins. !"

That was probably a few years ago, when Zong Luo was leading troops abroad.

When he was leading the troops, although there were frequent major and minor injuries, the life-threatening serious injury occurred only once. However, this is the only time, almost powerless.

The opponent is a general of a small country. He took the initiative to tell Zongluo that he didn't need to waste the people and money, he just needed to compete in martial arts, and if he lost, he would surrender on the spot.

At that time, the difference in strength between the two sides was not large, and reinforcements were still on the way. In addition, the Great Wilderness did have such a precedent for a single-handed battle, so Zongluo thought about it again and again and agreed to his request.

In the end, it's the master's test.

It is conceivable, how can ordinary people be the opponents of Guigu disciples?

It's just that the opposite general is not a good thing. If you can't beat him, forget it. Finally, he took out the hidden weapon that was said to have come from Gong Shuban.

This hidden weapon is called the Five-Petaled Plum Blossom and Six Flavored Snow. It is the proud work of Gongshu Ban and ranks at the forefront of the weapon spectrum. It is said that it can only be used three times.

Ordinary hidden weapons actually have little effect on Zong Luo. Because as long as the hidden weapon is opened and closed, it is impossible to be silent. As long as there is a sound, it can be detected.

He had been prepared for a long time and had avoided a part of the past, at best it was only a minor injury.

No one would have thought that the poison extracted from the curare tree was smeared on the five-petal plum blossom and six-flavor snow, "seeing the blood to seal the throat". Zongluo didn't think of it at first, but after realizing it, he used his internal strength to resist, sealing the big acupoints all over his body, barely holding a sigh of relief.

For this kind of strange poison, one of the best in the world, military doctors are naturally helpless.

So Xuanqi put him on a stretcher, ran around all night, walked for several days without sleep, and finally brought him back to the imperial city.

By the time of the imperial city, Zongluo had completely lost consciousness and fell into a deep coma.

The secret letters reported by the quick horse and whip were not as fast as Xuan Qi's arrival. When they arrived at the gate of the palace, Emperor Yuan, who was discussing politics with the courtiers, received the news slowly.

Yuan Jia was standing behind Emperor Yuan at that time, watching his Majesty's eyes sank immediately, and immediately dismissed everyone and urgently called the imperial doctor of Quantai Hospital.

It's a pity that every imperial doctor who saw it either sighed or shook his head.

Even the old doctor said: "Your Majesty, seeing blood sealing the throat is also called falling to the ground. But this poison also needs an antidote."

The only antidote for blood-seal throat is called red-backed bamboo grass. The two things grow together. Poison makers pick up poison arrows, and they will naturally take the red-backed bamboo grass along with them. Brilliant name.

Seeing a group of imperial doctors, he was about to shake his head and say His Majesty's condolences and change, and preparing to take care of the third prince's funeral. Emperor Yuan was furious and walked away.

Only Yuan Jia knew that His Majesty finally went to the Great Witch Temple. I don't know what conditions were used. He had to ask the Tai Witch, who would not interfere with the fate of the world at will, to take action, and then spend money to buy red-backed bamboo grass in the black market. Only then did he use witchcraft to pull the third prince back from the underworld.

After that, in those few nights, His Majesty locked himself in the imperial hospital, waiting day and night. Only in the early morning would he return to the palace, put on his mian clothes again, and walk out as if nothing had happened. Take off your clothes and continue to come to Tai Hospital to guard.

The unapproved memorials piled up into a mountain, to the point where even the Zhanggong's table could not fit.

It was the first time in the decades that Emperor Yuan had ascended the throne.

The courtier was unable to get a reply for a long time, and because of the prestige of the sage on weekdays, no one dared to ask any more questions.

When the imperial doctor diagnosed the pulse, he was pleasantly surprised to say that the third prince had a sign of spring, and His Majesty responded lightly, and ordered no one to tell the story of his visit to the outside world. Turning around and returning to the bedroom, he slept all day and night.

Yuan Jia said in a low voice, "Perhaps His Majesty was too tired that day. His Majesty only told the imperial doctor about this matter, but he forgot to instruct the old minister not to speak out, so strictly speaking, it can't be regarded as disobeying the decree."

After chatting like this, the two finally walked to Yuchun Palace.

Seeing Yuan Jia and Zong Luo, the palace servants guarding in front of Yuchun Palace hurriedly saluted: "Your Highness, Eunuch Yuan."

"His Royal Highness, if there is nothing wrong, the old slave will send you here. Your Majesty is still waiting for the old slave to return to his life."

Zong Luo nodded, "Thank you, Eunuch Yuan."

He needed some time to calm down after hearing Yuan Jia say this.

The palace servant in charge of the miscellaneous items of Yuchun Palace stepped forward: "His Royal Highness, the hot water in the bath has been placed."

"Okay." Zongluo handed the stove to the palace servant, unbuttoned his robe, and walked towards the bath.

The human heart is full of flesh, and the feelings are also mutual.

In the previous life, it was not that Zong Luo did not feel the concern and attention that Emperor Yuan had for him. First, he gave him his former prince's mansion, and he also had the power to independently control the army. These are enough to explain.

You must know that this is a personal soldier. The personal soldier means that Zongluo has the right to speak to Xuanqi. No emperor can allow his subjects to have such power, even a prince.

He is filial, but he is not stupid.

If it wasn't for this, it would definitely be impossible for him to commit suicide by giving the sword, so he would obediently wipe his neck with a sword.

Zong Luo immersed himself in the hot water with a relaxed expression.

If what Yuanjia said was true, why did he send him to the border in his previous life, why he gave him a sword to kill himself, even if he explained a little more.

He felt like he was split into two parts, one part told him that your father loved you and valued you, and the other part told him coldly to think about the ending of his previous life.

Zongluo didn't want to accept it, but his reason and emotion were more and more inclined to what Yu Beizhou said.

There really was a secret in his last life that he didn't know.

And all of this is locked up.

The only key is in the hands of Yu Beizhou.

No wonder he was so leisurely after his rebirth, jumping out from time to time to tease him a few times.

"Yu, Bei, Zhou."

Zong Luo chewed the name word by word.

In fact, he was not afraid to ask Yu Beizhou about all this.

What he was afraid of was Yu Beizhou, who had locked himself in the dark room and was covered in blood once again.

Because no one knows Zongluo himself, last time on the night of the full moon, it wasn't just one person who got out of control.

In the Third Prince's Mansion, Ye Linghan stood in the courtyard, looking in the direction of the palace.

After seeing Zong Luo in the palace that day, he never had the chance to go in again.

He was originally a proton of the state of Wei, and naturally he could not set foot in the important place of the Great Abyss Palace at will.

Now that the injury is almost healed, he should not continue to live in the Third Prince's Mansion.

However, when Ye Linghan was planning to move out with his old servant a few days ago, Steward Liao came over and said that the Third Highness had ordered him to come down and let him live in the mansion without having to go back to the Proton Mansion.

"His Royal Highness has already given orders, but he just told me not to speak if you don't leave."

Manager Liao sighed: "The bag of money on the window sill that day was also put by Young Master Ye, right? Young Master really doesn't have to be like this. I will do my best to take care of the people that the Third Highness has instructed."

Even this kind of thing is expected, that person is always so gentle, taking care of everyone's insignificant self-esteem.

"Thank you."

Ye Linghan was silent for a long time, then turned around again and put down the things he had packed in his hands.

After so much, he has long lost his arrogance.

In fact, the Proton Mansion can no longer be inhabited at all. In order to be able to go back, Ye Linghan sold everything that could be sold. Now it's not an exaggeration to say that the family has nothing to do. There is not even a mattress in winter. If he went back with face, he might freeze to death this winter.

And what he owed Zongluo had long since been repaid.

It happened that Zong Ruichen came over with a bunch of things, glanced at it, didn't say hello, and flashed back to his bedroom.

Today is Chinese New Year, he just went out and met the Fourth Emperor again.

The Fourth Emperor took him with him, shopping and buying all the way, and gave him a lot of gifts, saying it was a debt for these years.

After entering the palace last time, Zong Ruichen told Zong Luo about the last time he met Zong Chengsi.

Zong Luo didn't say anything else, just let Zong Ruichen stay away from him.

Zong Luo pondered that he still needs to catch Zong Chengsi: "You don't have to go far away. If he wants to give you something, you can accept it."

So Zong Ruichen did not refuse, and followed Zong Cheng all the way.
