Starfall

Chapter 1 tampering

In the desolate and cold polar north ice sheet, a thin and lonely figure is stumbled forward. From the sky, his figure looks like a trivial point on the vast snowfield, small and helpless.

He didn't know the exact direction, and his tired coral-red eyes stared at the iron-blue ridge of the barren mountains in the distance. But he knew that as long as he climbed over the mountain, he would be safe. I spent a few years from 12 to 17 years old on the far north grassland, and from then on, it is just a memory. He is fleeing from the people and things here, as well as sharp and broken memories.

The winter snow in the far north was sealed, and he walked deep and shallowly on the snow. If he didn't pay attention, he might freeze to death in the deep snow, but the night stars did not feel very cold. He felt that what was flowing in his body was the same as the wind and snow. In the ice and snow, he was like a fish in water, but he was so nervous that he kept running for so long that he had collapsed. But the towering ridges of the barren mountains still look so far away.

How many days has it been since the escape? His vague thinking has long lost the concept of time, but he has to walk day and night. In the first few days, he can always hear the barking of hounds and the voices of warriors and hunters behind him - this is the troops sent by Sujile and Ke to chase him, but after the heavy snow seals the original, even if it is still snow on the grasslands here on the south bank of the Rina River, it is enough. With a foot deep, the war horse could not run across, which won some vitality for the escape of the night stars.

The pursuers and the fugitives are walking on the snowfield. This is a time to compete for perseverance and endurance. A little relaxation will be doomed. But the problem is that one side has almost unlimited physical strength and reinforcements, and can replace those tired warriors and hunters at any time and send a lively new force; while the other side has only one person who is helpless, with no food, no rest, no sleep, and more importantly, no hope: Ye Xingchen feels like Falling into a trap, there is no chance to break free.

For good, the barking of the hound behind him has disappeared all day, which makes Ye Xingchen feel much more relaxed. The ferocity of the grassland hounds is famous enough to compete with ordinary wolves, and dogs are more suitable for running on the snow boughs than people, throwing away the hounds, indicating that they are far away.

The night stars ran drowsily, and his luxurious blue rheuphoin jacket was wet by snow and pressed against his back, mixed with sweat and freezing, as uncomfortable as a hard shell. The long hair is so messy behind him, and the cold wind is like a knife. The night stars really want to fall to the ground and integrate with this vast snowfield.

The footprints behind him were smoothed by the wind and snow. Without the guidance of the wilderness mountains, he would definitely lose his direction. He was the only one in the vast snowfield, with an inexplicable sense of loneliness, even if anyone came to talk to him. If it goes on like this, he will go crazy in the endless escape sooner or later.

The wind and snow were roaring, and the night stars staggered and stopped. They stood there twistedly, shaking like remnants torn by the wind. He felt very tired, and his mind was full of chaos. Such a flight for six consecutive days finally exhausted his mind. Seeing that the barren mountains were right in front of him, he had no strength to move another step.

His legs softened and knelt down. The pale purity in front of him turned dark, and the coral-red eyes turned up, revealing a palpitating white. At the last moment before losing consciousness, the face that came to his mind was still Yu Meng, Suil, and the gentlest time when he was with them...

"Is this, are you going to die?" His face was stuck to the cold snow, and his purple lips muttered to himself. His body was quickly covered with ice and snow, hidden in the vast snowfield and could not be distinguished.

The cold wind suddenly stopped at this moment, only gentle snowflakes fell, and the grassland was quiet.

In an instant, two figures in scarlet robes fell from the sky, dazzling red in the vast white snow, as if the temperature had suddenly risen. The beautiful man with long blood-red hair was suddenly Shura. His pale and soft face looked down at the motionless night stars lying in the snow, and there was a cold and sharp light in his dark red pupils. He stood upright like a sword, and his eyebrows were solemn.

"Yuexin, look what's wrong with him!" Shura said softly.

"Yes!" Following him was Princess Yuexin from the former Southern Liang Kingdom of Mengyang, but at that time, the simple and innocent little girl had become a girl who stood inchu chu, and her amazing beauty had been revealed. She also wore a thin scarlet robe and stood like a bright red rose. The soft face is cold that does not match it. If you look into her eyes, you can see the thick white fog inside - this is one of the characteristics of the secret race.

Yuexin squatted down, reached out and pushed aside the snow that was about to cover the face of Ye Xingchen, revealing the pale face. She couldn't help breathing. How beautiful and beautiful the young man's face was commensurate with the vast white snow around her. In particular, the slight sadness between Yingding's eyebrows and the closed slightly painful eyes made this teenager have a temperament that makes people approachable.

The milky fog in her eyes wrapped faster, the whole pupil became silvery, and her soul master's power had been launched. For a moment, it returned to normal. She stood up straight, looked at Shura and said, "He is not dead yet. He is just weak."

Yuexin couldn't help looking at Shura more - he had never seen such a solemn and serious look on Shura. Following Shura for so many years, this strange man who likes scarlet and gorgeous colors has always been the kind of person who is careless and extremely joking about everything. When talking about the changes in the world's major events, he is also playful and sarcastic. Even if the whole world collapses in front of his eyes, he can't touch him at all.

But why does this weak man lying in the snow show such a solemn look?

Sura's slender arms were held on his chest and said calmly, "Night stars are the biggest variable. It has exceeded expectations, and the growth of Ye Xingchen is out of control. I didn't expect that the timid little boy could become so terrible! Even I feel a sense of crisis."

Yuexin was shocked when she heard it, and Liu's eyebrows frowned slightly. It was not easy to make Shura say such words. She knows better than anyone how powerful Shura is.

In fact, she had seen Ye Xingchen before. It was many years ago. At that time, Mengyang was still the period of Emperor Shenluo, and the princes were still divided. Every year, the major princes and kings went to the imperial capital to pay tribute to the emperor. She was the princess of the Southern Liang Kingdom, and Ye Xingchen was the son of the Night Kingdom. They The status is comparable, and it's quite reasonable to meet a few times. At that time, the night star was wearing a blue feng feng sleeved robe, like a delicate porcelain, with a timid smile on his face and a crisp voice. The coral-red eyes were very unique and easy to make people like boys.

But now, has that little boy made Shura, who is like a god in her heart, feel not to be underestimated?

In the first year of Mengyang Linxi, the feudal system of princes was completely rejected by Emperor Lin Xi, and the last kingdom of princes also collapsed. The royal family of the Ye family was destroyed. Since then, Ye Xingchen disappeared in Mengyang, but he did not expect to be in the far north. What has happened to Ye Xingchen for so many years?

Looking at the slightly sad face on Ye Xingchen's face, Yuexin couldn't help but be curious about this handsome man.

"Night stars are a crucial part of the plan. Whether it is my plan or Mengfan God's plan, it will involve the night stars, but I can't control his growth. At that time, he pleaded with His Majesty Lin Xi, leaving him with his life and exiled to the far north wilderness. But when he saw him again, he had mastered a hegemonic knife skill and could come up with such a huge and detailed battle plan. Even the power of spells was faintly parallel to me. What's more terrible is that the heart of the night stars has changed! Every time I see him, the night stars give me a different feeling. At first, I was happy for his growth, but now, I'm worried!" Shura sighed gently, and the breath from his mouth quickly condensed into a string of water mist.

His scarlet pupils stared at the unconscious night stars and sighed, "What should I do with you? At that time, I casually said to you, 'The dragon is lurking deep, and you don't know how to dance in the sky after the Spring Festival'. You actually subverted this sentence to this extent... Maybe everyone underestimated you!"

Shura took a deep breath, and his eyes lit up in an instant. Yuexin understood that this was the look of Shura when he made up his mind to do something.

Sura turned around, stared at Yuexin with dark red pupils and said, "I need your help!"

Yuexin's expression condensed and bowed her head and replied, "I will die!"

Shura lowered his eyes, glanced at the sleepy Ye Xingchen, and said, "I want to tamper with his memory. From now on, you are Ye Xingchen's sister. You take him to Fanyang and let him develop and see how much he can grow. I will erase the memory of his brother Ye Yuanhong, as well as the hatred for Emperor Lin Xi and his memory of his mother, and you will appear as his sister to replace Ye Yuanhong's position in his heart, okay?

"To be his sister?" Yuexin was stunned for a moment, and her little mouth opened wide in surprise and said in surprise.

"Well, I'm afraid that it will become more and more difficult to control if I continue to let Ye Xingchen grow up like this. Now I can remedy as much as I can. You stay with Ye Xingchen and slowly change his mind, so that I can be more assured. The ring of the night stars must not make any more mistakes... We are already half a step slower than Mengfan God!" Shura raised his head and looked at the dark and low-pressure far north grassland. There was a worry in his blood-red eyes. Before the gentle snow fell on his face, it turned into a water mist. His whole body seemed to exude a fever that could melt the whole snowfield.

"I know!" Liang Yuexin nodded.

"Became him to Fanyang and find a city to stay. Don't worry about secular money, how much you want, let the night stars live the life of a nobleman, luxury and prosperity, wipe out his heart, and make him forget the belief that 'dragons dive deep in the stream, how to know how to fly and dance in the sky after the New Year'. I wanted Ye Xingchen to stay in Mengyang, but I was worried that Emperor Lin Xi and Mengfan God would be aware of it... It's best to balance the pros and cons, and it's best to stay in Fanyang! Report the situation of Ye Xingchen to me at any time and remember to ensure his safety.

Yes! Keep in mind!" She lowered her head and looked at the quiet sleeping teenager, and suddenly felt sad for him - is this young man about to lose his previous memory, be replaced by a false memory, and live like a caged bird in a false world compiled for him by others?

The sleeping night stars, the handsome face is clear with boundless sadness. Yuexin bit her lip and stared at him silently. Suddenly, she wanted to know why he was sad. Whose face came to his mind...

It's another year after winter and spring.

Mengyang Linxi has been in its fifth year, and Emperor Linxi has completely controlled the empire in the palm of his hand. Five years is enough to build a complete ruling system, destroy the stale of the ruling nobles under the former emperor, and make his confidants come to power. Mengyang's decision-making level has also changed from the original civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to the emperor in the Starfall Hall, but such a dictatorship has not caused the instability of the empire. On the contrary, the overall decision-making of the Mengyang Empire has become efficient and concise. At least so far, Emperor Lin Xi's decisions have been correct!

At this time, the ethereal city has ushered in a soft spring breeze. Although it is still cold, the crystal clear ice frozen on the palace has melted. The clouds above the ethereal city are more graceful and ethereal, and the whole city is like a fairyland floating in the clouds. This is the most magnificent city on the continent and the heart of the huge Mengyang Empire.

In the star falling hall, Emperor Lin Xi, dressed in a glazed dragon robe, leaned on the throne, and his eyebrows were sharp and cold as a knife. He said indifferently, "That is to say, are the far north barbarians not worried now? Why does it sound like the barbarians have been unified by Chi Nasi in just a few months, and their military and financial resources can be brought together? Is this a good thing for me Mengyang?"

Shura, standing in His Royal Highness, smiled and said, "Your Majesty, our purpose of supporting the Barbarian Azeslan's army was to weaken the military strength of the barbarians. The strongest vigorous cavalry and phern horses of the barbarians have been destroyed. Now the military strength of the barbarians is not even up to the level of the aggressive war against Mengyang five years ago. What's more, can a unified barbarian bring war into the south with a little temptation? In the past five years, Mengyang has been accumulating strength and training the army, especially His Majesty's long-awaited wind and thunder cavalry has also completed training, and the barbarians have greatly weakened their strength with the secretly support of Mengyang and Fanyang. Isn't this a good thing for us?

Emperor Lin Xi looked at Shura silently. His face was expressionless, and his dark eyes were like two deep tunnels, and even the light would be absorbed. After five years in power of the empire, Emperor Lin Xi's momentum was more domineering. Even if he sat there, it was awe-inspiring and did not dare to look at him. Under the pressure of the noble emperor of that royal family, few people can stick to it.

Emperor Lin Xi's eyes, with a penetrating power from the soul!

"I don't care about the barbarian affairs. The wild grassland in the far north is just chicken ribs for me. What I want is the land east of Mengyang! After so many years of planning and accumulation, all I want is just a complete dream empire!" Emperor Lin Xi said softly.

Shura was stunned for a moment, and then his handsome and enchanting face showed ecstasy and said, "Your Majesty's ambition is terrible! A complete dream empire? This is what many ambitious people dream of. More than 300 years ago, the Jingxi Dynasty split into Mengyang and Fanyang. How many emperors and princes tried to restore the glory of the Jingxi Dynasty but failed? Your Majesty has such a great ambition that Shura will do his best to help!" The hall echoed with Shura's arrogant and loud voice, which was not consistent with the enchanting beauty on his face.

But Emperor Lin Xi didn't say anything. His dark eyes stared at Shura, as if to see through his soul. It is a kind of gaze with examination, speculation and speculation!

Perhaps he sensed the emperor's eyes, and Shura's wild voice also stopped. His blood-red eyes looked at the emperor's sharp eyes, unyielded, tit-for-tat, and their eyes were like electric light.

Shura vaguely sensed that the meaning of this look was doubt and distrust.

However, Emperor Lin Xi's expression softened in an instant, with a graceful smile on his face and said, "My hegemony has your help, and I will set a smooth road!" Wan Tong's royal family must be the lord of the whole world!"

Shura was also surprised by the sudden change of the emperor's look! His heart sank - maybe the emperor noticed something, or maybe it was not the emperor's intention to deal with the barbarians. In short, the emperor distrusted him so much! It's not as dependent as before!

This is a very dangerous signal!

"Your Majesty, when do you plan to start the war against Fanyang? Now Mengyang's national strength and military strength have reached an unprecedented level, and the barbarians north of the Huanghe Mountains are no longer worrying..."

"Wait!" The emperor briefly interrupted Shura's words and said coldly, "I'm waiting for an opportunity. When the time comes, there will naturally be war!" But not now!"

Sura's eyes are even more gloomy. Why is he now more and more unable to figure out Emperor Lin Xi's thoughts, unable to touch the emperor's thoughts as easily as before, or even read the emperor's eyes. Emperor Lin Xi, who mastered the empire in a high position, was much more mature than when he hurriedly took over the empire, and his eyebrows were as vast as the stars of the universe. Although he is a noble magician, he has that small feeling in front of Emperor Lin Xi. He thought that he knew everything and could master the most profound rules in heaven and earth, but Emperor Lin Xi's calm self-confidence, as if everything he knew was created by this young man in a gorgeous robe.

After staying in the far north for so many years, what did Emperor Lin Xi know? Shura was so gloomy that he thought of it.

But he still smiled carelessly and said, "Well, well, as long as your majesty has a plan in mind!" Waiting is not necessarily a wise choice!"

When he bent down and bowed, Emperor Lin Xi's dark eyes fell on him coldly, and there was no smile on his face, which was clear and angular.
