Starfall

Chapter 88 Frost Pavilion

The quiet night king's palace is lonely like a tomb that has been abandoned for thousands of years. At noon, the sun was shining everywhere, and the autumn was refreshing. In the afternoon, it became cloudy, and the dark clouds of lead were suppressed, full of heavy depression!

Yeyuan Hong's quiet man walked in the most secluded place of the palace - he deliberately avoided everyone! He didn't know why he did this, but he felt very depressed, as if he could no longer be happy! Looking at these people in the palace doing their own things, with a natural smile on their faces, full of the warmth of true feelings in the world... And he hid in the dark like a wandering soul and watched it! It's really like this, the distance between yin and yang!

He lowered his head and his back was not as straight as before. He looked elusive and had no energy at all! As if he is much older, his feet rubbed against the ground when walking, a little staggered and a little soft! It seems that there is nothing in the world that deserves his attention. Only his wandering person can only be natural when he is empty, and the feeling of guilt is not so strong!

He raised his hand in front of him and bent his five fingers, like a pair of eagle claws, which almost strangled the stars! He really didn't know what was wrong with him at that time, as if he was suddenly stunned! I just looked at the smiling face of the stars, but a scarlet figure jumped out of my mind. This scarlet demon image actually coincided with the appearance of the stars - as if the stars were demons, and I only had the desire to kill demons in my heart, and I didn't know anything!

A crackling sound sounded, and he turned his hands into fists, looking at the white bone joints and the faint blue blood vessels! The hands were clenched tightly, the whole hand trembled, and the nails were deeply embedded in the meat without pain! It seems that after I come back to life, I will no longer feel pain and feel nothing!

Is it still a human?

The fingertips embedded in the meat cut the skin of the palm, revealing a few blood stains, agate-like blood beads oozed out, and the dazzling scarlet... He quickly hung his hand, closed his eyes, took a big breath, and tried his best to calm himself down! He was afraid of falling into the terrible scarlet world again. The whole world seemed to turn scarlet, surrounded by incomplete corpses, all dark red as if jumping and burning blood... And he stood in such a world and looked around, and there was nothing left!

That feeling is too terrible!

He closed his eyes, took a big breath into the cool air, felt the cold airflow crawling along the esophagus into his chest like a snake, and then coiled into a ball in his body, calming the madfire in his heart!

I almost killed the stars in that state! At this time, his heart was full of guilt for the child! And father, in the palace, those Ye family ministers, led by their uncle Ye Qingshan, forced their father to convict themselves, and finally suppressed this matter! He remembered how his father suppressed all the ministers and insisted on believing his words!

"But no matter who is, they can't take away my son, even if they want to offend the whole world!" - Father's words are always so determined! He finally understood that his father also cares about him very much. He and Xingchen are in the same position in his father's heart. They are both sons of his father. In the future, when his father is old, they will support the whole kingdom!

I have always thought that my purpose of living is only to protect the night stars and let this young and weak magician grow up safely... Now I'm wrong, it's ridiculous! But my father is also very sad to do such a thing by himself...

Everyone looked at themselves as if they were looking at an ominous person possessed by the devil. Ye Yuanhong couldn't help rejecting himself. Instead of this, it's better to die! He only felt that he was very dirty. Sometimes he heard the servants in the palace whispering that when he first came back, he was full of the smell of corpses, and the blood he shed was black and red like the dead! Is this yourself? Suddenly, there was a surge in my stomach, and I was disgusted by myself!

He no longer walks around and stands there quietly, like the last banner standing on the battlefield, but at this time, there is no wind, it can't fly away, and it can only hang gently... There is no sense of vastness that the war flag should have!

"Brother..." Suddenly, a soft cry sounded behind him, and the wind seemed to have a smell of spices from the south, which was extremely beautiful!

Is it an illusion again? Ye Yuanhong thought silently that this is the most remote place in the palace, and few people come here. How could anyone call him? This is the sound of stars, and the child dares not come to such a desolate place alone.

But another "brother--" is much closer this time, and the smell of the precious spices is also clear, and this space is full of the smell of spices on children.

Ye Yuanhong trembled. This time he couldn't feel that it was an illusion anymore, because the child's hand held his cold hand without any temperature! As if holding a soft jade, Ye Yuanhong only felt uneasiness in his heart, and his guilt suddenly calmed down a lot!

He turned his head and took a look. His pale face tried to twist a soft smile. He looked at the child's coral red eyes, which were completely different from his own, and said, "How did you find here alone?" Are you following me, you little mouse..." Fortunately, the joking mood in the voice is very natural. That's how their brothers usually talk!

But his smile froze, because he saw a corner of a strong bow exposed on the wall not far away. Although it was only for a moment, Ye Yuanhong could be sure that there was ambush there were warriors! His eyes narrowed and his sharp eyes searched carefully. Sure enough, there were also elite scouts hiding among the forest leaves on the big trees around him, with sleeve crossbows on their arms. Obviously, he had been secretly following to protect the stars! These scouts directly ordered by the general are all the most elite. They only accept the orders of the general. Even if they are the eldest prince, if they do something wrong, they will kill themselves on the spot!

Ye Yuanhong's heart faded. Sure enough, after this incident, his father could not believe in himself so much! He understands that he is not angry!

The child's voice is very soft. He is beautiful like a girl. Ye Yuanhong is sure that Xingchen will inherit his mother's unparalleled appearance when he grows up! The child said, "I'm just worried about you, but I can't find you, so come and have a look. You're really here!"

Xingchen let go of his hand and turned around twice, like a light swallow. He said with a smile, "It's very quiet here. No one played with me in those days on the battlefield, so I'm here alone, so I don't have to see the night star cold! He always wants to stop me and get revenge on me!"

"Is the night star cold?" Ye Yuanhong's voice was a little gloomy, and he smiled lightly and said, "Does that waste dare to laugh at you? That's because my whip is not heavy enough for him to remember the end of insulting the prince!"

"It doesn't matter! I'll just hide from him now! Sooner or later, I will grow up, and then I will be better than him. What I need most now is time. As long as I give me time to grow up, I will never be afraid of him again! I am destined to be a god walking in the clouds, and I want to stand at the highest place and look down on the whole world! I am..."

"Who taught you these words?" Ye Yuanhong frowned and looked at his brother! I always feel that these words contain a terrible magic, like a spell for you!' Is it destined to be a god walking in the clouds, standing at the highest place and overlooking the whole world? In this case, the previous star is absolutely indescribable. He is a timid and cowardly child. How can he say such a thing?

But looking at the stubborn confidence in the child's coral-red eyes, he was still impressed! The stars seem to have changed a lot in the month of separation! That kind of mental change, a kind of thing called 'taking on' and 'responsibility'! After all, he is the son of the Night Kingdom! He will be one of the most powerful people in the Mengyang Empire in the future, and even the royal family will rely on him!

"Brother, I heard that you were going to strangle me yesterday. Did you see a scarlet demon?" The child asked carefully!

Ye Yuanhong's heart is thumping! He knows that he can't avoid it, but how should he explain it to this child? I can only nod my head!

But Ye Xingchen just had a serious face and immediately laughed again! He said, "Do you look like you are wearing a scarlet robe, your hair is red, eyes and lips are red? Well, is it better than a woman? Isn't it?"

Ye Yuanhong's dark eyes were full of panic. He didn't know how the night stars knew so clearly!

But the child just said excitedly, "I'm sure that it was Shura who saved you. I was taken into the palace of Piaomiao City once a month ago, and Shura, the great master of the dynasty, came to me! He is a very powerful magician. I begged him to save you! Brother Shura is so good. I knew he could do it..." The child's face was full of smiles, like the most blooming peony flowers in May!

" Shura?" Ye Yuanhong said solemnly, "Isn't Shura the devil in myth and legend? Who is he? How can you be involved with those people in the court? Besides, what is the official title of the great master? I have never had this position before..."

"Those words just now were also taught to me by Shura. He said that as long as I am given time, I will grow into the most powerful person. I will stand at the highest place and look down on this world and hold the lifeline of the world in my hand. No one can defeat me..."

Ye Yuanhong only feels that this Shura is not a good kind. If there is such a crazy and earth-destruction mind and a powerful magician, it can only be a disaster for the whole world! He knows what a sorcerer is. That kind of person is a demon who violates the world view and has the power to subvert the world!

He knew that Xingchen's mother, now Queen Baiyan, is a magician... How can such a person appear in the world unscrupulously?

Suddenly, there was a feeling that the stars, and the white queen, their faces could coincide with the appearance of the scarlet demon - the three of them were like a person, looking the same... He shook his head and dared not think about it anymore. It was terrible!

He looked at the stars silently. Is it his brother who begged the Shura to save his life? How can you make a request to a devil without paying the price? What can the stars exchange for? For a moment, the mixed thoughts in his mind made him go crazy! He didn't even know what to say, and his mind was dizzy!

"Let's go back!" He bent down and took the child's hand and left the dead corner gloomily! The expression on his face is ugly, like worry and disgust! The sound is also much colder

Xingchen looked at his brother's expression and didn't dare to say anything. He could only let him be led back!

The imperial capital is the imperial palace, and the frost pavilion.

Nanshuang Pavilion is a garden pavilion built by the Liunian emperor in the palace. It is planted with all kinds of rich and famous flowers, as well as rockery and flowing water, and all kinds of birds! Every spring is green, and summer is full of flowers, beautiful and beautiful. Autumn is the most prosperous scenery. At this time, the summer flowers have not yet withered, especially the ministers who specialize in serving these flowers and plants in the palace have cultivated fiery red roses that bloom in autumn. As soon as autumn comes, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the water mist in the floating city condenses on the fiery red roses in the early morning, condensing petals into clusters. It looks like a burning flame that is frozen, and the whole frost pavilion is such a magnificent scene. If the morning glow is gorgeous, it is another wonder, so this is also a place for the royal family to visit! As for winter, all the flowers are withered, and there is nothing to see in the desolation!

And the Frost Pavilion is named after this grand scene in autumn. The fiery roses are like fiery lips, condensing crystal snowflakes, which is a grand scene that ordinary people can't see.

At this time, Emperor Lin Xi stood alone in the Shuangbi Pavilion and looked at this fiery rose garden! Unfortunately, it's not cold enough now. The fog of the ethereal city can't condense, but it's a dazzling red, and it's not covered with crystal ice! This red rose blooms so much that it seems that it insists on using their enthusiasm to make the brightest spring!

Shura stood aside and said with a faint smile, "I didn't expect your Majesty to like this dazzling flower! I really didn't see it!"

"Oh? So what kind of flowers do you think I should like? Emperor Lin Xi bent down and sniffed the tip of his nose to a rose, as if to gather the confusing fragrance into his abdominal cavity!

"Your Majesty is young and brave. When he likes the splendid things such as pine and cypress, he prefers the sword horse and golden beauty!" Shura said.

The emperor stood up, stared at the fiery red rose bush and said, "I like this kind of autumn rose, but I just like this extremely gorgeous fiery red. I like this fanatical red, fanatical, fierce and confusing! As for the sword and horse, the golden beauty, I have nothing to pursue! The sword is not noble, it is enough to kill people. Horses don't have to be famous. They can drive away strong enemies. As for gold, Mengyang has never lacked gold! Beauty? Except for my mother, I have never met anything more beautiful than me..."

Then the emperor's voice became hoarse and fierce. As long as my dream is fine, it is my greatest pursuit! No one can take away my dream!"

In the gentle frost pavilion, the emperor's voice was as harsh as tearing a satin.

Shura is still smiling. His scarlet robe, hair and this fiery autumn rose are particularly matched, and his whole body is almost integrated in the garden! He said, "Your Majesty, there is still an unstable factor now. If this factor breaks out, I'm afraid Mengyang will be a disaster!"

"I know, Night Country!" The emperor said that he couldn't see any expression on his pale face, as if he was fascinated by the flowers!

"Does Your Majesty not want to attack Ye Guo?" Shura smiled tremly and said, "General Zhentian holds hundreds of thousands of light armored brigades, and the general himself is the first person in Mengyang's row in 50 years!" Now several vassal states are under the management of the royal family. In fact, the army available to the royal family is only 30,000 royal troops and the reorganized warriors of the rest of the vassal states, which can't stop the general at all! Your Majesty, are you--

"Don't say it!" The emperor interrupted him coldly and said, "I want to see the flowers for a while. I don't want to think about the war for the time being!"

Sura was stunned for a moment and immediately became relieved again!

The roses of the Frost Pavilion seem to be more gorgeous, and the dewdrops on the petals shine brightly. But the emperor still sighed faintly: "This year's frost is late... At this time in previous years, the frost pavilion was full of frosted fire roses, like a frozen fire... Did this year's Chi Na Siren's frenzy melt the frost?" This seems to be saying to Shura, and it seems to be talking to himself!

"I don't know, maybe!" Shura is perfunctory. Then he said, "Night Yuanhong, the eldest son of General Zhentian, disappeared after the First World War in Yining City. The nobles of the night country thought that he had died in battle, but failed to find the body. The general was already ready to carry out the tomb... But that Ye Yuanhong magically returned to the night country! The night country invited all the nobles of the empire to attend the congratulatory banquet for the great prince of the night country, and your majesty is also among the invitation! There are still three days left, you see..."

"You should go... After all, the general is the hero of Mengyang!" What Shura said was casual, and the emperor's answer was also very easy-going!

"Let's go tomorrow! Let's see if there are any frost and snow roses tomorrow morning. I really want to see them! After all, there are only a few days a year to see this kind of grand scenery. Lately, the rose wine in this courtyard withers, and it is full of ice, snow and dead leaves... It's a loss to watch less than a day!" He said, as if there were only roses in this courtyard in his eyes, and he didn't care about social affairs anymore.

Shura sighed, and his dark red eyes glowed with helplessness!
