Chapter 449: There are no two days in the sky, no two masters in the country (2)
Su Yan sat there and cried for a while, and his whole body was so whispered that he did not have the majesty of a king at all. But after crying, he wiped his tears and became more energetic. He stood up and wanted to choose a glass of wine and drink it all. But when his hands touched the wine glass, his trembling hands still betrayed his heart, revealing the psychological manifestations of fear.
"Master, do you... really let me choose?" Su Yan looked up at Liu Yu and asked with a hint of pleading.
Liu Yu's face rose and said coldly: "You have heard a lot of storytelling jokes before. Do those late masters and emperors who lost their country make it a living? Compared to them, you may die more happily. The teacher also gave you a chance. This opportunity is equivalent to God giving you. You choose this glass of poisonous wine and a glass of sake yourself."
Su Yan's expression finally seemed to have opened his eyes and didn't complain about anything anymore. Both glasses of wine were the same clear, and he couldn't tell which glass was poisonous. Or both glasses were poisonous. He picked up a glass of wine, and he didn't rush to get in. He looked at Liu Yu and asked, "Master, can I make a last request? I...I want to meet Xiaoyu, and...Yimeiren..."
Originally, when Liu Yu heard that Su Yan wanted to see Sun Xiaoyu, he felt a little pity. The couple who had shared troubles and wanted to meet him when they died. But when he heard that Su Yan wanted to see Cao Yi, Liu Yu felt a little more disdainful. In fact, Liu Yu was completely disappointed with Su Yan since Cao Yi entered the palace. At that time, Liu Yu felt that Su Yan had become a wild horse that had broken away, and he, the horse trainer, could no longer tame him.
Liu Yu also secretly investigated the files of the Cao family case. After all, the Cao family case was a power struggle. The Cao family fell, and Cao Yi could enter the palace as a criminal daughter. Su Yan might not have been cautious in this matter to help the fire to fulfill his good deeds.
Liu Yu shook his head slightly. He didn't say much, but Su Yan already understood that Liu Yu was unkind. He also understood that his request was a bit too much. He held the wine and didn't even put it in his mouth. Two lines of tears flowed down, and he understood that this was probably the last time he stood and talked to Liu Yu.
"Master, it's a face that the disciple is useless to lose. At this time, the mother-in-law and mother have a long love relationship with their children, which is really cowardly." Su Yan sobbed and scolded himself. He held the glass of wine in his hand without rushing to drink. Instead, he began to recall the past. "I remember the first time I met the master. I was in the chess building. That day, I just lost money and was collected by the Santou Gang. I accidentally hid in the chess building. If the master hadn't opened the door and let me in, I would have lied to the people of the Santou Gang that I was not inside, maybe I would have been beaten to death at that time. At that time, I thought the master should be a stick. It's easy to cheat. Since then, I have gone to the master to sell something and exchange it for some money every now and then!"
If Su Yan hadn't mentioned it, Liu Yu would have forgotten that there was something going on. In fact, Liu Yu had never told Su Yan that he had already helped pay back the money from the Santou Gang at that time, and Liu Yu had arranged the fault of the Santou Gang to find Su Yan, and deliberately forced Su Yan into the chess building from two intersections. This caused the two to meet by chance. In fact, Liu Yu had long been scheming in this regard.
"... Later, I lost the cockfight with someone. I was thrown into the river in the winter of the Great Republic. I choked the water and got sick. It was the master who asked the doctor to help me treat the disease. At that time, I only had two cents all over my body. Not the master, I died again..."
Liu Yu interrupted Su Yan and said, "That time was not the doctor I invited for you, but the Xiang of Han. I want to thank you for your trip..."
Su Yan cried and said, "I will thank Mr. Han if I have the chance. He helped me a lot in those days. I still have to thank my master that time. After I first recovered from a serious illness, the master borrowed me more than one or two silver dollars. Not only did I ask me to pay the rent, but I also bought a new bedding to prevent me from getting frozen in the middle of winter. That winter was the best winter I had in those years outside."
Liu Yu sighed and said, "I'm talking nonsense. Choose quickly, and drink it all."
"The disciple may have only a while left. If you don't say some words now, there will be no chance in the future." Su Yan put the wine glass slightly closer to his mouth, and the sadness on his face increased a little, but he still didn't drink it. "Master, the disciple has a request. If... I chose the wrong choice and die, can I find a mountain to bury me? I don't want to bury it in the imperial tomb. I'm sorry for my father, my ancestors, I don't want to sleep next to them and be scolded by them..."
Liu Yu glanced at Su Yan and thought to himself that this kid still has some backbone. He didn't want to be buried in the ancestral tomb and the imperial tomb, but wanted to be a lonely ghost. Nowadays, people have a plot about the tomb. Although there is a consensus on the underworld after death, after the underworld, I hope that the family will reunite and not be left alone as a wild ghost.
"Okay, this is not difficult to ask, I promise you."
"Thank you, master, there is another request. Master... can you spare Xiaoyu and the children in her belly? I...I don't want them to die like me..." Su Yan said this, maybe he felt that Liu Yu would not agree, so he knelt down on the ground and begged, but was supported by Liu Yu.
"You also know my character. I will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. I can let Xiaoyu and the children in her belly go away. When I warn you, I will not agree to any other requests!" Liu Yu was upset when he heard his long-winded words, pointing at Su Yan and warning sternly.
"Master, I just have one last question. Just let the master tell me. I won't make any requests anymore, this is not a requirement..."
Liu Yu glanced at Su Yan again and asked, "What's the question?"
"Master, did the father choose me to be the emperor at the beginning? Or was it as Qian Shangshu said that the master tampered with the will. Originally, the father wanted to make the seventh emperor brother the crown prince?"
This is actually the biggest secret in Liu Yu's heart. However, at this time, there is no need for Liu Yu to hide Su Yan anymore. No matter whether Su Yan is dead or alive, Liu Yu should not let him have any thoughts.
"Yes, you were indeed the one who was appointed by the teacher at that time. You also knew that your seventh emperor brother was not in line with his teacher, and he had no choice but to establish you!"
Su Yan's original firm belief suddenly collapsed. He also knew that his father was not optimistic about him, and he drank all over him with cold water a few days before the throne. In fact, he had long been unable to understand why he was the emperor, and now he finally understood that if it weren't for this master, he would have no chance of becoming the emperor. Su Yan looked disappointed, but it seemed that his last wish was satisfied and he died without regrets.
"Thank you for your honest advice. If I want to be my master's apprentice in my next life, if I don't become an emperor, I will be a gangster on the street. When I am hungry, I will continue to ask my master for free food and drink. Master, please don't drive me away..."
Su Yan said with a last sad look on his face, and said that he closed his eyes and wanted to drink the glass of wine. However, Liu Yu suddenly held his arm and sighed, "You drink another glass..."
"ah?"
Su Yan was a little puzzled and nodded with surprise at the beginning, put down the wine glass in his hand, picked up another glass of wine and sent it to his mouth. After drinking that glass of wine, he collapsed on the ground, as if waiting for the arrival of death.
The room was silent, and you could even hear the footsteps of soldiers passing by outside the palace. Until a knock on the door came, Liu Yu opened the door and Qi Fang stood at the door. There were many eunuchs and palace maids in front of the Imperial Guard Office. They were all captured in the harem when they escaped in the chaos, waiting for Liu Yu to deal with it.
"I will arrange them freely after putting them back to the inner court."
Liu Yu gave an order, Qi Fang took the order to do things, while Liu Yu closed the door and looked at Su Yan who continued to sit on the ground and looked at him.
"Master...I...I seem to be fine..." Su Yan spoke with a little puzzled and inquiring tone.
"After tomorrow, be a good person and send you to the vassal states. Although there is no military power or administrative power, the taxes in the vassal states are enough to support you and your family. If you have any connection with the court officials, the vassal states will not tolerate you anymore!"
Su Yan knew that Liu Yu had let him go, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to thank him. The blood that had already condensed on his head flowed out again, dyeing the ground red: "Thank you for not killing Master, you must be a good person. The disciple had listened too much to the words of Yimei and the Fourth Emperor Sister before, and he won't know how to do it in the future!"
Liu Yu frowned slightly, looked at Su Yan and asked, "Are you talking about that woman named Cao who encouraged you to kill me?"
"Yes..." Su Yan had nothing to hide at this time, and frankly told Cao Yi's previous plan. Liu Yu was furious. He originally thought that he and Su Yan were on the verge of death. One was Su Bi's provocation, and the other was that he and Su Yan were originally the emperor and powerful ministers. Unexpectedly, there was a beauty beside Su Yan. If this woman was left by Su Yan, it would be that there would be a jackal bite at any time.
Liu Yu immediately opened the door and called Qi Fang over and said, "I found out the person I just now, and immediately bring him to see me."
Liu Yu clenched his fists tightly, and he waited for a long time but could not see Qi Fang come back. It was not until dawn that Qi came back in a hurry, and other military generals in the city came with him, who came to swore allegiance. Of course, they didn't know who they should be loyal to now.
But it is absolutely right to stand in the same team as Liu Yu.
"Yimi's man disappeared in chaos. Someone saw her escape from the palace and disappeared." Qi Fang replied.
Liu Yu sighed and didn't say much. He had some doubts about Cao Yi's identity, but it was not difficult for Liu Yu to find some clues when contacting him.
In fact, the main reason for the destruction of the Cao family was that after the Qian Hui case, Su Yan, Yuan Bolang and others settled the old faction, and the relationship between the Cao family and the seventh prince, Su Zhe, the king of Chu, was extraordinary. Since Cao Yi was determined to enter the palace to provoke his relationship with Su Yan, Cao Yi might have left a way out. The power of the mysterious faction in the city is not a secret to Liu Yu, and it is likely that it was the restoration faction of King Su Zhe of Chu.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu was thinking about everything. Now it was the enemy who forcibly put an end between him and Su Yan, and there was no possibility of reconciliation from now on, and it was equivalent to putting the country on the brink of turmoil. If the court was unresolved on the issue of successor, then King Su Zhe of Chu would have an opportunity to take advantage of it.
The most important thing now is the smooth transition, which is equivalent to what Liu Yu expected before this coup. (To be continued.
