Yuwen Xiao did not even change out of his dragon robe. After sending off Yue Yang, he hurried to Lushua Hall, but was still a step too late.

"Royal Grandmother, where's the dog-emperor?"

"What dog-emperor? He's your biological brother." Empress Dowager glared at him in displeasure, "You're already so old, yet you're still speaking so shamelessly."

"I know he is my biological brother, and he is also the ruler of a nation." Yuwen Xiao did not care, the presence of the Great General and the Regent King in front of him had all been fed to the pigs.

"Where are they?"

"He left a long time ago." The meaning behind his words was: If I knew you would come looking for me, I would have left long ago. Could it be that I will still be waiting for you here?

Yuwen Xiao slammed the table angrily, "That irresponsible and useless Emperor, he walked away without caring about anything else. Do you believe that I won't mess with his business tomorrow?"

When Empress Dowager heard his shameful words, she also slapped the table, "Stop messing around!"

She, this old man rarely lost his temper, especially when facing Yuwen Xiao, this made him very surprised.

He then heard the Empress Dowager talking to herself, "Look at the Emperor, it seems like he is sick. Even if he didn't tell me, this old woman, he probably wouldn't want me to worry."

But even if he hadn't said it, her old woman's eyes weren't blind. The empress's concerned and nervous gaze couldn't be concealed, nor could it be concealed.

"What illness?" Yuwen Xiao was startled, then suddenly thought of something, and anxiously said: "Royal Grandmother, your grandson will be leaving!"

As he spoke, he flew out.

When Yuwen Xiao ran out of the Lushua Hall, he happened to run into Fang Weiyong who was looking for him. Without saying a word, he dragged Fang Weiyong away and said, "Let's go, change into some clothes and follow this general out of the palace!"

"Where to?"

Fang Weiyong didn't even have time to ask before he was dragged away.

At this time, Yuwen He and Xiao Ruyue had secretly arrived at Xiao Mansion.

Old Mistress Xiao talked to the eldest grandson, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. Her grandfather chatted happily, but the thing that Old Mistress Xiao was most concerned about was the condition of the little guy in Xiao Ruyue's stomach who was running around with her, afraid that this little guy would be messed up by his mother.

Xiao Ruyue hurriedly said, "You little bastard, you're still fine. You even kicked me in the middle of the night. I don't know what kind of naughty kid he'll be in the future. "

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Old Mistress Xiao laughed and slapped her palm.

Xiao Ruyue shrugged, then glanced at Ripple's stomach, "The ripples are already beginning to show."

"Yeah, it was fast."

Ripple was as shy as ever, embarrassed to look at anyone.

They were happily chatting with their ancestor,, and the Xiao Jingyu that had just returned home. Their conversation was completely drowned out by the voices of Xiao Ruyue and the Old Mistress Xiao, and no one knew what they had just said.

After talking for half an hour, Yuwen He started to cough again. He was fumbling about as though he was trying to find something, but he was unable to find anything. Xiao Ruyue's face became even more solemn, he handed the bottle to him and said: "It's about time, we should leave."

Yuwen He laughed, and did not say a word.

Old Mistress Xiao could also feel that the atmosphere had gone amiss in an instant.

Xiao Ruyue slowly walked to the front of Old Mistress Xiao and slowly kneeled down. Surprised, Old Mistress Xiao tried to help her up, "Girl, what are you doing?"

"Grandmother, Moon girl may not come back to see you again in the future for a very long time. Yue Er is unfilial."

"If you have anything to say, then say it, get up."

When Xiao Ruyue did all of these things, Yuwen He did not stop her. He just watched from the side, her brows slightly knitted, but her eyes carried a warm smile.

No matter what, family was the most important thing.

Elder Sister Xiao, you will be back.

Sure, sure.

Xiao Ruyue did not cry. Her eyes were reddened, but from the beginning to the end, she did not cry. She held onto Old Mistress Xiao's hand and instructed her, "You must eat and sleep as much as you can.

He also told her father to be careful not to overwork his body, as there were too many things in the world to deal with.

He instructed Jing Yu, "You've long been a man who can support both the heavens and the earth. From now on, you are the pillar of our family, and the entire Xiao Mansion will depend on you to bring glory to our ancestors. Take good care of the elderly, take good care of Ripple and the children, and take good care of yourself."

"We all know that when we're away, we must take good care of ourselves, little aunt." Xiao Jingyu was extremely reluctant.

Old Mistress Xiao's eyes were brimming with tears, but Xiao Ruyue had already made up her mind, she was here today on purpose to say her goodbyes, she would definitely not stay for long.

After a moment of reluctance, the person who should leave still had to leave.

Yuwen He's coughing became heavier and heavier, and only after taking two pills did he manage to suppress the urge that arose from deep within his body.

Just as they walked to the entrance of the Xiao Mansion and were about to get on the carriage, Yuwen Xiao who had changed into casual clothes brought Fang Weiyong over on his horse.

"I knew you were here!"

Yuwen Xiao floated down from the horse and blocked Yuwen He's path, "Why did you leave without saying goodbye? You clearly said goodbye to everyone, why did you leave me behind? Yuwen He, what kind of brother are you? Didn't you promise your mother that you would take care of me? What's wrong with throwing the throne at me and running away? Is this what you call taking care of me?! "

Yuwen He swept away the hand Yuwen Xiao was aggressively resting on his shoulder, and said indifferently: "When I promised mother, you were still a child, and as an elder brother, it is natural for me to take care of you; but now that you have grown up and have such a good martial arts, it is enough for you to take care of yourself, so naturally I do not need this elder brother of mine to take care of you."

He paused before continuing with a smile, "As for your words about leaving the throne and running away once you give it to you, that's even more unreasonable. All along, it was not you who wanted the Dragon Throne to be tossed around because of it, now that I'm giving it to you, what else is there for you to be dissatisfied with?"

"Even if I want it, I will have to fight for it with my own effort! Who cares if you give way! "

Yuwen Xiao was flustered and exasperated, like a child whose beloved toy had been snatched away by someone, he was full of grievances but was unable to set off.

"Whether or not I've grown up and whether or not I can stand up for myself is my business. Whether or not I need you to take care of me is not up to you to decide. You gave up halfway through your task, did you not owe your mother's spirit in heaven? "

"Even if I've let down my mother's spirit in heaven, so what?"

"You … You are forcing logic! I don't care! "

In front of others, the unreasonable and ruthless Great General, the current Regent, was just like a child in front of his own brother.

Yuwen He smiled slowly, "Yan Qi, you're not a child."

His hand slowly fell on Yuwen Xiao's shoulder, "You are already an adult, Big Brother won't be able to protect you for your entire life, from today onwards, you will have to depend on yourself. This big brother will entrust our Da Xia Empire to you. "

"I don't want to!" Yuwen Xiao rejected decisively, and pushed him away.

Caught off guard, Yuwen He took two steps back. His breathing became chaotic and he started to cough heavily, quickly passed him a pill but he could not even eat it.

He tasted something sweet in his throat and grabbed it with his handkerchief. He coughed heavily, causing the handkerchief to turn a bloody red. The white silk had turned into a blood-red color.

Yuwen Xiao's face was pale white, "You …"

Xiao Ruyue immediately supported Yuwen He, at the same time, she smiled bitterly and shook her head at Yuwen Xiao, signalling him not to continue.

Yuwen He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, rejected Xiao Ruyue's support and revealed a smile.

"You saw it as well, so you should just become the Regent. When do you want to ascend the throne, no one will look after you anymore."

"I, you …"

After Yuwen He finished speaking, he indicated for Xiao Ruyue to leave. Yuwen Xiao watched as they climbed onto the carriage. The only words left in his mouth were "I" and "you".

The person who understood him the most in this world was Yuwen He.

How could he die?

As the carriage moved further and further away, he did not even have the courage to chase them.

He said that the mountains and rivers were entrusted to him.

Gift, who asked you to hand it over, Yuwen He, how can anything happen to you?

You clearly promised your mother that you would take care of me and help me weather the storm.

You break your promise, vile man!

What kind of emperor are you, the dog-emperor!

The horse carriage went further and further away, and Yuwen He's complexion became uglier and uglier.

Xiao Ruyue's heart was filled with worry, but she could only silently get a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, "If you say it like that, will he be fine and stay in the capital?"

Yuwen He nodded, and laughed softly: "He, ah, is very proud. "But he always liked to be controlled by others. When he was young, it was his mother, and then it was me. When no one was controlling him, he played like a little madman."

"Later on, when he grew up, he was also lawless. However, the truth was that he only wanted others to control him. He thought that I didn't care about him at the border, so he intentionally caused trouble to give me a name to take care of him.

"But what can we do? He was the only one who could be trusted!

Yuwen He sighed softly, yet it seemed like he was laughing at the same time.

He leaned on Xiao Ruyue's shoulder slowly and muttered to herself. "Now, I don't need to bear the burden of that river and mountain anymore. In the future, I will be yours alone. "

"Yeah, I know."

"Don't talk anymore, let's rest for a bit. We're almost at the medicine hut."

However, Yuwen He grabbed her hand and said, "No, I don't want to sleep. I just want to talk to you."

"Alright, speak. What do you want to hear? "

"Listen to your singing. Remember that winter when my mother passed away and I fell outside the back door of your house and almost froze to death? You picked me up and you hummed a song for me, and I still remember it. "Ask what is love in this world, and teach life and death together."

The soft voice of a woman could be heard.

"To ask what is love in the world, to directly teach life and death to each other.

North and South of the sky, the two flyers, old wings several cold summers.

Enjoying the fun, parting and suffering, there are even more foolish children.

Jun Wu Yi's words were as clear as the clouds in the sky and as cold as the snow in the setting sun. Wherever he went, his shadow would leave behind a trail of shadows.

Hengfen Road, lonely years Xiao Tuo, the barren smoke is still flat.

What was the use of summoning souls? The ghosts of the mountains were crying for the rain and the wind.

The heavens were also jealous, and they did not believe it.

Eternal autumn, for the sake of waiting for the scoundrel, wild singing and drinking, visiting Yan Qiu.

"

Tears silently rolled down his cheeks like a gush of spring water.
