Views:

Guan Suyi was stunned after just a quick glance. If this person didn't take off his clothes, she would never be able to imagine what kind of trauma this body had suffered under the cover of gorgeous robes.

He is indeed tall and majestic, and every bulging muscle contains terrifying power, but in addition, there are also staggered scars, one by one, one by one, one after another, healed and injured, injured again. Well, the so-called "incomplete body" is nothing more than that.

He had the deepest and deadliest scar on his left chest, which could be distinguished with the naked eye. At the beginning of the injury, it must have reached the heart and almost died.

"You, aren't you the young patriarch of the Jiuli clan?" Guan Suyi felt that she could hardly breathe, she knew that "see no evil", but she couldn't look away no matter what.

"Young patriarch? How is that possible! That's just the gold that was put on my face by the ministers after I ascended the throne. You people from the Central Plains have a good face, and whoever becomes the emperor has to make up an extraordinary origin and name for him. Head." Emperor Shengyuan's eyes were dark and his expression was in a trance, as if he was remembering something.

"Madam, look at this," he pointed to the scars on his left shoulder, "this is the scratch I left when I was five years old when I was fighting with a lone wolf for food. Due to the heat of summer and mosquito bites, it really festered for a month or two before gradually gradually developing. Healing. And here, this is the first time I have been on the battlefield, and I have been slashed by the enemy with a knife..."

He counted them down one by one, each one being an unforgettable pain, and each one was a life-and-death catastrophe unimaginable to ordinary people. It is a miracle for Guan Suyi that he can stand here calmly and recall the past with himself.

"How was this scar left behind? Is it the most dangerous one?" Guan Suyi clearly didn't want to respond, but it was difficult to restrain the pain and concern in her heart.

Emperor Sheng Yuan was silent for a long time before he said dumbly, "This is what I stabbed myself."

Guan Suyi looked at him in horror, it was hard to imagine that such a strong-hearted and incomparable hero like him would have the idea of suicide. Why? What tragic event happened to make him so desperate that he didn't even have the courage to live

Emperor Shengyuan gently stroked the corners of her reddish eyes, and laughed in a deep voice, "Madam, it was you who saved me. If it wasn't for you, this knife would be nothing, maybe I would stab a second, third, and so on in the future. kill yourself."

Guan Suyi's face was pale, and she wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. Her intuition told her that behind this fatal scar, there must be a deadly secret buried in it, and she was definitely not qualified to know. However, even if she didn't ask, Emperor Shengyuan had already made up his mind to tell her everything.

"Speaking of which, my life experience is not a secret. The entire Jiuli people know it. If the Han courtiers want to inquire, they should also know a thing or two." He handed over the wooden board and commanded softly, "Madam, open it and take a look."

"This is a picture of hell?" Guan Suyi looked puzzled.

On the wooden board is a painting with extremely strong colors. In the center of the painting lies a woman with loose hair and a machete. A Rakshasa evil spirit with green face and fangs slits her towering belly and crawled out with a few pieces of intestines. , to suck the blood from her wrist. Blood, there is blood everywhere, and a large area of red burns the eyeballs of onlookers like flames, making people feel extremely uncomfortable and even more creepy.

The tragic death of the woman and the greedy and ferocious expression of the evil ghost are vividly rendered by the superb painting skills, as if this is not a scene of hell, but a real occurrence.

Emperor Shengyuan's answer confirmed this guess, "This is not a picture of hell, it is the scene when I was born."

Guan Suyi's heart skipped a beat, but she was not frightened, but strongly suspected. Even if she doesn't want to see Emperor Shengyuan anymore, she has to admit that he was a benevolent ruler in this life. Even in his previous life, his idea of governing the country was correct, and his original intention was to benefit the people, but he had no way of doing it and took many detours.

If such people are all evil ghosts, what is the last emperor of the previous dynasty

"No, you are definitely not a Rakshasa evil spirit. This painting is fictitious." She shook her head in denial.

The haze between Emperor Shengyuan's brows completely dissipated, "I am indeed not a Rakshasa evil ghost, but this painting is not fictional. The woman in the painting is my biological mother, Husu Liya, the first side room of the imperial examination. You We also know that our Jiuli people have three wives and four concubines, one main wife and two side rooms. If the side room is strong, it can be on an equal footing with the main wife. My mother was the most favored side room in the imperial examination, and she was also the most capable. The side room has a tendency to replace the main wife, that is, the current queen mother. Especially after she became pregnant, the contradiction between the two was almost irreconcilable, and it was on the verge of triggering. "

He took the drawing board, his eyes were empty, "I don't know who did it, the queen mother or other wives and concubines, in short, when I was about to be born, she was chased and killed and fled into the valley for refuge. There, she gave birth to me. , the belly was torn, the wrist was cut, the blood was on the ground, the scene was very tragic, and there were wolves constantly wandering around, but because of the poisonous powder she cast, they never dared to approach. It was the Queen Mother who first found her body. , And I was lying in a pool of blood at that time, holding her wrist, eating blood, not dying of thirst and starvation, nor being eaten by wild animals, I lived for three whole days, and finally waited for rescue."

"After going back, the queen mother found a top-notch oriental painter, described the real scene according to the narration of everyone present, and presented it to the imperial examination." He clicked on the frame and sighed, "So there is this A picture of Rakshasa's descent into the world."

Guan Su's clothes were not visible, and a storm had already set off in his heart. This painting was really sent to the late emperor, and the result can be imagined. If he can pierce his mother's belly and emerge from his body, and eat his blood to survive tenaciously, how can he know that he will not kill his own father and harm the clan in the future? How much the late emperor loved the side room, how much he hated this ghost baby, how could he allow him to survive

Emperor Sheng Yuan smiled while stroking her pale cheeks and comforted, "Madam, don't be afraid, Huang Kao is not such a heartless person. He didn't kill me himself, but just threw me into the mountains to feed the wolves."

Isn't that called heartless? What horrific things have he experienced to think that it is good not to kill his father himself? Guan Suyi's eyes turned red, and a layer of water mist slowly emerged from his dark eyes.

"Madam, don't cry, everything is over. You feel sorry for me, I know." Speaking of the most unbearable past events, the Emperor Shengyuan at this moment could not feel the slightest pain, and he would not pick up the sword and desperately self-harm. He just wanted to hug the lady who was crying for him, watch her quietly for a while, kiss her for a while, listen to her choked sobbing, and even scolded her angrily, so that all the pain could be smoothed out.

"Who cares about you? A faceless bastard!" Guan Suyi barely suppressed her tears, but her voice became trembling.

"Okay, I'm a bastard, I have no face and no skin." Emperor Shengyuan held his wife's soft and boneless hand and patted his face twice, and said with emotion, "I didn't expect the emperor to take the exam, but the wolves took me. Let’s go, I have raised them carefully. Before the age of three, I followed them to learn to hunt. I ate raw meat and drank animal blood. I couldn’t speak, but only growled. Occasionally, one day, the emperor was lost in the mountains and ran into me and gave it to me A roasted chicken leg, the taste I can't forget until now." As he spoke, he laughed, as if it was such a beautiful memory.

"Is Huangjie the eldest princess?" Guan Suyi asked in a hoarse voice.

"Yes, it's her. Since then she has often come to see me, taught me to talk, make a fire, eat cooked food, drink boiling water, and tell me that I am not a beast, but a human, a person with flesh and blood. So no matter what the emperor does , I can forgive me, because without her, I would not be where I am now. After a few years, the clan threw a group of children into the mountains, and let them fight for their lives with wild beasts, trying to cultivate a group of dead men, I then I got in. I learned martial arts from beasts, the dexterity of apes, the ferocity of tigers, the ruthlessness of wolves, I don’t know how much stronger than those children, so I naturally became the leader and led them to live with stumbling and stumbling. Come down. One group of children left, and another group of children came, and before I knew it, I took control of the Anbu of the Jiuli tribe."

"You are really lucky!" Guan Suyi was shocked, thinking that this person is really the real dragon, right? Otherwise, how could it be a desperate situation again and again

"I do have a bit of luck. After cultivating a large number of dead soldiers, the Jiuli people gradually annexed the surrounding small tribes and began to expand outward little by little, so I joined the army again, defeated the enemy again and again, and made great achievements. When When Huang Kao discovered my identity, I was already holding a heavy army and was unstoppable, so he had to hold his nose to recognize me. However, I was never his son, just a weapon, except to expand his territory for him, nothing existed Value. Waiting for this sharp weapon, it's time to throw it away. While he directed me to fight in front of me, he let a few of my brothers devour my power, and watched them unite and strangle me with cold eyes."

Having said this, he sneered, "But waste is waste, let alone joining forces, even if we give them another 100 lives, we are not the enemy of our unity. Later, I went straight to Yanjing and became the emperor, and later, the queen mother. I gave this painting to me as a gift for enthronement, making my life worse than death." His eyes began to turn red, "I have been thinking since I was a child, why do other people have parents and mothers, but I have nothing; Growing up at home, I was the only one who was abandoned in the wilderness. Who is my mother, and why is I regarded as a demon by my clan? In the passage of time, in the torment of suffering, this question gradually became my inner demon, And the queen mother released this demon completely, intending to kill me without a fight, and she almost succeeded."

Guan Suyi was speechless for a while in shock, and slowly straightened out her thoughts. She looked at the painting in her hand again, and said with certainty, "Your Majesty, she lied to you. This painting is not a Rakshasa coming into the world, but a mother's guardian child! "

Emperor Sheng Yuan suddenly laughed, gently wrapped his wife's thin shoulders, and murmured, "My wife is still very clear-sighted and most transparent. Without my wife, I might be haunted by inner demons for the rest of my life, mad to the point of death. Madam, you saved me."
