The last tenderness

Si Mo pursed her lips and looked at Xiao Zhen for a long time: "If I want you to come back, will you be willing?"

"I don't want to." Xiao Zhen replied without thinking.

"Xiao Zhen, until now, I have not abolished you, you are still my queen." Si Mo said sharply.

"So what? Si Mo, my mission is over. I watched you grow up, protected you on your ascension to the throne, and cleared away all obstacles for you. For the rest of my life, I just want to live as I please."

"You live your life as you please, is that because you are married to my most arbitrary prime minister?"

Xiao Zhen took a deep breath and tried to keep his voice calm: "Si Mo, can we not talk about the past anymore? How do you want to end it between us?"

The emperor's eyes were colder than before, and he looked at Xiao Zhen with a sneer.

Was she that desperate to end their relationship?

Si Mo said nothing and just walked forward slowly.

Xiao Zhen frowned and followed.

The attendants behind him did not follow, nor did the imperial guards, but after the emperor took a few steps, they all knelt down as if to see him off.

Xiao Zhen stopped walking, turned around and looked at the kneeling sergeants beside him, and then slowly cast his gaze on the emperor who was walking in front. He walked very slowly, his steps were difficult, and his body became weaker and weaker.

It seemed like he would fall down at any moment.

At this time, he coughed, coughed for a while and then walked forward.

Until the two of them came to an open place with a rippling stream. What was rare was that in this season, there was a green grassland with a few unknown wildflowers blooming. There were very few wildflowers. Because there were so few, they felt so ordinary.

The beauty of flowers.

Si Mo seemed to be tired from walking, so he sat on a big rock, took a breath and said, "Sit next to me."

The stone is not big and can fit two people if they squeeze together.

Xiao Zhen did not refuse and sat next to him, right next to him. The two of them were as close as they were ten years ago.

"Is it beautiful here?" Si Mo didn't look at Xiao Zhen, but just stared at the wild flowers that bloomed at the right time.

“It’s beautiful.”

She didn't know how long she had been watching, but Si Mo said, "Before coming here, I went to visit the Shi clan. Are you curious about what I did there?" It was me, not me.

"curious."

"When you were seriously injured back then, the priest of the Shi clan said that you were affected by Zhu Youshu. I entered your dream at that time, and I realized that you promised to be the prime minister in the Zhu Youshu."

Xiao Zhen thought about it, and it seemed that there had indeed been such a time when she saw the emperor in the fog of the technique. As for what he said, she had no memory.

"Don't you think that I went to the Shi clan to ask Shi Yan to promise me a lifetime with you in Zhu Youshu?" Si Mo asked again.

"Are you?"

Their voices were all calm and plain.

"No. After I came to this place, I often heard people say that the sacrificial clan can know the past and predict the future, and even change a person's destiny in the future or the next life." At this point, Si Mo began to gasp and look at his appearance.

It should be involved.

Xiao Zhen looked at him, looking at this face with a sharp outline and a silent and tenacious face. He was extremely cold, as if there was a chill on his body. He was extremely aloof and arrogant, and exuded a kind of superiority that no one could see through.

He has power. Even if he is so sick, even if he takes three breaths with one step, his whole body still exudes a sharp and hurtful aura.

He became unknown to her and a complete stranger.

Xiao Zhen felt a dull pain in his heart.

Si Mo's eyes kept falling on those wild flowers. From beginning to end, he never looked at Xiao Zhen, as if Xiao Zhen didn't exist.

"Guess what I'm going to do?" He asked lightly after he had rested.

"Can't guess."

"Xiao Zhen, I don't want to see you again, even if I just pass you by. So, I asked Shi Yan if there is a next life, what kind of way can we avoid seeing each other. He said, as long as the two of us are together

Tell that person what he thinks in a quiet place, and as long as that person agrees, they will never meet again in the next life."

Xiao Zhen was startled.

"Success is Xiao He, failure is also Xiao He. In this life, I have nothing to do. Even if I remove the bones and flesh, I can't cut off the connection with you, and my heart will be broken. In the next life, we don't want to meet again.

.”

"Okay." For some reason, Xiao Zhen just found it extremely difficult to pronounce this word.

"I'm so tired." Si Mo slowly leaned her head on Xiao Zhen's shoulder, just like ten years ago: "I'm so tired." As long as he is tired, she will become his support.

"Then take a rest. You won't be tired after resting." This is what she often said to him.

His voice gradually weakened: "Did you think I would kill you just now?"

"yes."

"I hate you and want to kill you, but I can't let you go. When I think that the person who treated me the best in this world is gone, my heart breaks."

Xiao Zhen closed his eyes.

"My whole life is a siege. Others can't get in if they want to, and I can't get out if I want to. General, promise me, you will protect the crown prince when he ascends the throne, and let the prime minister assist the crown prince until" His voice became weaker and weaker, and gradually disappeared.

The hand originally placed on his knee also slowly slipped down.

Xiao Zhen's lips trembled slightly and her eyes were red. She took a deep breath and looked up at the blue sky. She didn't know how long it took before she said: "Okay. I promise you."

The wind passes without leaving a trace, and the grass, trees, mountains and rivers are lonely.

Xiao Zhen slowly clenched his hand, and when he opened it, he wanted to hold his hanging hand, but he couldn't reach it out. His resentment towards her, his helplessness towards her, and his affection for her ended when he would never see her again in the next life.

He must not be willing to let her shake hands at this moment.

Bai Hao walked out of the forest, followed by many palace attendants, who quickly carried the emperor on their backs and left.

"Did he already know that Ziran and I were in Aza City?" Xiao Zhen asked.

Bai Hao nodded: "Yes."

Xiao Zhen took a deep breath again.

Bai Hao took the basin from the attendant and knelt respectfully in front of Xiao Zhen: "Empress, the emperor asked me to give this to you. He said you might be able to use it."

Xiao Zhen's eyes were on the plate, which was Feng Ling, the mother of the world, and Ying Ling, who could command the emperor's shadow warriors.

"The one whom the Emperor trusts the most is you." Bai Hao said: "He handed over His Royal Highness to you, and also handed over the entire country to you."

Xiao Zhen looked at these two things without saying a word. The warmth from when he leaned against her shoulders was still there, but now it was gone. She cultivated the boy she fell in love with at first sight in the military camp.

The boy actually left just like that.

He was still so young, he was still so young. He left behind the mission he had to shoulder and left.

Xiao Zhen walked back step by step.

Looking at the two things on the plate, Bai Hao smiled bitterly. What a bad fate.

At the foot of the mountain, Zhao Jie and the little miracle doctor were waiting anxiously for Xiao Zhen. When they saw Xiao Zhen walking down the mountain, they hurried forward.

"Sister, the emperor didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

"Sister, where is the child?"

Xiao Zhen seemed not to hear what they were talking to her, and walked forward step by step.

Zhao Jie and the little miracle doctor looked at each other and were about to say something when they saw two women carrying Xiao Yao'er and Xiao You'er walking down the mountain, with Bai Hao following behind them.

Seeing that the child was okay, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Jie directly drew the sword from his waist and pointed it at Bai Hao, saying angrily: "Bai Hao, you traitor."

"The emperor just wants to see his wife one last time."

"What's the last scene? Could it be that the emperor will die now?" Zhao Jie sneered.

"The Emperor passed away."

Zhao Jie slowly put down the sword in his hand and looked at Zhao Jie in disbelief: "How is that possible?"

The little miracle doctor glanced at Bai Hao blankly, then turned to chase Xiao Zhen: "Sister, is the emperor really dead?"

Xiao Zhen stopped his heavy steps: "Everything is over." She thought that the relationship between them might end with her death, and she had always thought so over the years.

"I, although I hope he dies soon, I don't want him to die now." The little miracle doctor murmured.

The drizzle does not wet people, but it makes them annoying.

Han Ziran walked into the courtyard while talking to the eldest brother of the Han family about the shop. Unexpectedly, he raised his eyes and saw his wife sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard. The room behind him was also dark with no candles lit.

"Azhen?" Han Ziran quickly walked over, waved away the raindrops that fell on her body, and then pulled her into the house: "Why are you sitting outside alone?"

Ms. Liu, who was lagging behind, walked in. Seeing her husband looking in the direction of her third brother's yard, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"My brothers and sisters were sitting outside just now, and they were all wet. You can ask your brothers and sisters later to make sure nothing happens," said the eldest brother of the Han family.

Mrs. Liu nodded: "Why is the house so dark? Is Yu'er's wife and Zhang's wife no one there? I'll go look for Xiang'er first." With that, she went to Xiang'er's yard.

Inside the house.
