Chapter 39 Sacrifice

"Actually, there is no way to save Ye Li." Hu Yimeng said, "There is a spell that can transfer the damage to others, so that the injury can be healed immediately... But this method is really the lowest method. If you want to save people, you must sacrifice another person. So what's the difference between being saved and not?"

"Mother! As long as you can save the emperor, it is the best way!" Ling Xiao's eyes lit up, "What the Empress said is a spell that only needs one person to be willing to transfer the damage to himself?"

"Yes." Hu Yimeng nodded.

"Mother." Ling Xiao knelt on one knee and solemnly said to Hu Yimeng, "Ling Xiao is willing to exchange his life for the emperor's life!"

"Ling Xiao, you should think clearly that this is not a joke. If the injury on Ye Li's body is transferred to you, you will die, and there will be no way to live again." Hu Yimeng said cautiously to Ling Xiao.

"I know." Ling Xiao nodded, "The emperor's life is a hundred times more important than Ling Xiao's life. Ling Xiao alone can be exchanged for the peace of the people of Dayu. The people of the world live and work in peace and are not suffering from turmoil. Ling Xiao will die in its right place."

Speaking of this, Ling Xiao turned his head slightly and looked at Xing Yan. A trace of apology and reluctance flashed in his eyes. Soon he withdrew his sight, looked directly at Hu Yimeng, and said firmly.

Hearing Ling Xiao's words, Xingyan's body trembled slightly. Did she lose the man who had just lost a relative for the rest of her life?

Tears overflowed uncontrollably from her eyes. Xingyan clenched her lower lip, suddenly turned around, and stopped looking at Ling Xiao. She tried her best not to make a sound so that no one could feel the sadness in her heart.

Hu Yimeng naturally noticed a trace of abnormality between Ling Xiao and Xingyan, but at this moment, all her thoughts were on Beichen Yeli. Naturally, she couldn't care so much. Hearing Ling Xiao's words, Hu Yimeng sighed slightly. She picked up Ling Xiao and worshipped Ling Xiaofu, "General Ling, thank you for what you have done for the emperor for the Great Yu Kingdom. Everything."

"You don't have to be polite. Let's start. Ling Xiao is ready." Ling Xiao stood up and said to Hu Yimeng.

Hu Yimeng took a deep look at Ling Xiao, asked pheasant to help Beichen Yeli, and let Ling Xiao and Beichen Yeli sit face to face, with their palms facing each other.

Hu Yimeng recited a long and obscure spell, and his hands kept flipping the handprints. The slender and dense golden silk line slowly grew out of Ling Xiao and Beichen Yeli, slowly wrapping them up until they both fell into the golden cocoon.

After about an hour, Hu Yimeng's clothes were almost soaked by the sweat on his body. His fingerprints were finished, and the spell was finished. The golden cocoon suddenly cracked a gap. Gradually, the gap was getting bigger and bigger, and the color of the golden silk thread became lighter and lighter, until it completely disappeared into the air.

At this time, Beichen Yeli and Ling Xiao also appeared in front of everyone. The difference is that the wound on Beichen Yeli's body has completely recovered, and his face has become ruddy and full of vitality. Ling Xiao's face was pale and he fell straight down.

Xingyan clenched her lower lip and shed tears silently. She didn't say anything. She just walked quickly to Ling Xiao's side, helped Ling Xiao up, hugged him tightly, buried her little face in Ling Xiao's neck, let the tears flow wildly, and suppressed all the crying in her throat.

Just a few hours ago, the man swore that when they left Jiuhua Palace safely, and when the emperor controlled the overall situation in the court, he would marry her and let her be his bride, and be spoiled by him forever. But now he only left a cold body for the sake of loyalty. He has completed his loyalty to his master, but what should he pay for the happiness he owes her?

Xingyan knew that she had no right to blame him. He sacrificed for the sake of the Yu Kingdom and for the people of the world. He defeated her alone, but completed the world. She did not blame him or hate him, but she knew that she would never fall in love with anyone else in her life, and her heart had gone with Ling Xiao. When Ling Xiao was alive, he was determined to protect the emperor, protect the Empress, protect her and the pheasant's safe exit from the Jiuhua Palace. Now that he is no longer, she will take his will to protect the emperor, protect the Empress, and protect the pheasant from the Jiuhua Palace safely.

It seems that the tears of my life have dried up on this day.

When Xingyan raised her head again, her eyes were red and swollen, but there were no tears.

"Xingyan...you and Ling Xiao..." At this moment, Hu Yimeng finally understood what Ling Xiao's last look at Xingyan meant.

That's a look that is reluctant but must say goodbye forever! It turns out that Ling Xiao and Xing Yan have already taken each other seriously... They have sacrificed their children's private affairs for loyalty, for Beichen Yeli, for the sake of Dayu, and for the people of the world, one has sacrificed their lives, and the other sacrificed their love...

"If you want to cry, cry out." Hu Yimeng sighed. Although she saved Beichen Yeli, her heart became more and more bitter.

Is it really so difficult to do both things in the world? Hu Yimeng felt that everything she encountered after entering Jiuhua Palace this time made her silently mature, making her understand that life and death are variable. If she lives, she should work hard to live and cherish the people in front of her.

"Mother, I won't cry. Ling Xiao died in a good place. I will be fine and live his share with him." Xingyan wiped the tears on her face, looked up and said firmly to Hu Yimeng.

Hu Yimeng felt that the girl in front of her who had accompanied her for more than three years had really grown up, because she saw sadness in her eyes and the indomitable feeling after sadness.

Hu Yimeng looked back at Beichen Yeli, who had not yet woken up.

She loved and hated this man, but she could never forget him. Just now, when she felt that his breathing stopped, she felt that her heart was going to die with him. At that moment, she clearly understood her heart. She loved this man, and this love had been engraved in her soul. If he died , her soul will also be crippled. Ling Xiao exchanged her life for his life, and she even had a trace of happiness. At least it's good that he survived... He is still alive...

Beichen Yeli felt as if he had had a long dream. In his dream, he returned to the imperial capital, returned to the palace, and even heard the news of the Empress Dowager's death. However, when he rushed to the Empress Dowager's bedroom, he fell into a trap and was stabbed by the Empress Dowager. Then he fainted. He only felt His body is getting colder and stiffer, and his five senses are disappearing little by little. He seems to be not far from death, but at this moment, a warm force slowly penetrates into his limbs along every pore of his body. His vitality is recovering little by little, and his body is no longer cold and stiff. That force The quantity urged him to wake up from the nightmare quickly. The five senses gradually recovered, and Beichen Yeli slowly woke up.
