Can Drink A Cup of Nothing

"I had a dream yesterday."

When he heard Emperor Yuan say these words, Zong Luo only felt that his internal organs were filled with lead, his limbs were frozen and frozen, and countless distracting thoughts flashed through in an instant.

So far, Pei Qianxue, Gongsun You, Ye Linghan, the main male characters in "Can Drink a Cup of Nothing", only Gongsun You dreamed about the past life and provided Zong Luo with the most information. On the contrary, Gu Ziyuan, Zong Ruichen, Zong Yuanwu, and even Zong Luo himself have a lot of roles. People who have hardly appeared in the original text have a higher probability of dreaming back to their previous lives.

This is enough to show that there is no necessary connection between the dream of the previous life and the original text. Apart from them, many ordinary people may have dreamed of it.

It is likely to be a probabilistically triggered event, a drawback of rewinding time. After all, that was something that actually happened, it wasn't fake, it wasn't fake. Dreaming in the way of a dream, many people may wake up and forget, not remember at all.

However... this time it was Emperor Yuan who was dreaming.

From ancient times to the present, most emperors dreamed of it as an omen.

In the previous dynasty, there was an emperor who dreamed of meeting the Queen Mother of the West at night. It is said that he got the chance to become an immortal in the dream. A hundred years later, there were actually auspicious clouds floating over the tomb, and a vision descended from the sky, and the golden light was magnificent.

Coincidentally, when the last tyrant of the previous dynasty was young, he dreamed that his country would be destroyed and his family would be destroyed. However, when he woke up, he only remembered that he had succeeded in winning the reserve in his dream, forgetting that he had become the king of the subjugated country.

If Emperor Yuan was dreaming, based on the experience of other people's dreams, he would dream of some past memories that he had experienced in his previous life, and he was more likely to dream of his own changes before his death.

With Emperor Yuan's acuity, as long as he could realize that he was dreaming in a dream, he would be like Gongsun You, who could analyze a lot just through the dream.

This is the source of Zong Luo's worry.

If Emperor Yuan's dream is long enough, it is possible to infer his unusual behavior in this life, and even glimpse the plan.

A lie was told, and more lies are needed to make up for it.

And he wasn't ready for this, for being exposed as a lie.

However, Emperor Yuan was so excited now that he didn't notice the unusual expression on his prince's face.

"After the first battle at Hangu Pass last year, a vision of nine stars falling from the sky, Quan Dayuan even dreamed of the scene of you killing yourself under the city wall."

He stood with his hands behind his back, and the sharp eyes behind Mian Yan faded, as if falling into memory: "...only I didn't dream of it."

The flickering candles behind the Zhang Palace stretched out, reflecting the emperor's reflection on the ground.

In the first battle at Hangu Pass, Emperor Yuan, who once took off his dragon robe, put on his armor and held a sword in his hand, wanted to rush out to fight with him. His straight back seemed to be hunched by two points.

Zongluo had never known that in his two lifetimes, when he was fighting to the death at Hangu Pass, the monarch of a country was also ready to destroy the monarch on the high golden palace.

As Pei Qianxue said, he was the prince that Emperor Yuan valued the most and loved the most.

When he died on the battlefield, everyone dreamed, but Emperor Yuan did not.

Perhaps when he returned to the dream at midnight, the emperor would regret countless times that he did not carry his sword and rushed out of the imperial city.

The emperor's voice was low: "Last night, I was finally able to fall into a dream, but I dreamed that you were killing yourself under the imperial city."

Zong Luo was startled, his fingers under the long sleeves couldn't help curling up.

No one knows better than him that the big dream last year was not the embattled scene in the siege of Hangu Pass at all, but a real suicide in a previous life.

What scene did Emperor Yuan dream about? Have you seen the decree thrown from the city wall? Did you detect anomalies, or infer more clues from other clues?

It was like being held by an invisible big hand, waiting for the final judgment.

No matter what happened at the witch sacrifice ceremony, he was indeed the one who deceived first in this life. Even if Emperor Yuan really guessed it and became furious, Zong Luo never complained.

However, when it came to this, Emperor Yuan remained silent.

The candles in the Zhang Palace were clearly extinguished, and the emperor in the black dragon robe suddenly turned his back and walked straight to Lan Qi, who was holding weapons behind the curtain.

On top of Lan Qi in the center, there was a sword that was very familiar to Zong Luo.

Zhan Lu.

The imperial decree of the previous life was wrapped in this sword of the emperor's benevolence and thrown from the city wall. The handwriting of Emperor Fang Yuan was conspicuous, the jade seal was stamped with bright red, and a series of cold characters were scribbled.

Until now, Zong Luo still remembers the feeling of holding this sword in his hand, and even the moment he saw it, his pupils shrank, and the pain of the cold and sharp sword edge kissing his neck is still vivid in his mind.

Emperor Yuan directly picked up the Zhan Lu sword.

"Boom--" With a sound, the sword came out of its scabbard softly, shining like a cold glow in the slightly dim room.

The emperor stretched out two fingers and gently stroked the sword: "This is the only treasure that I took from the Yue Kingdom Palace when I was seventeen years old after the great destruction of the Yue Kingdom."

Weapons that are on the list of weapons in the world are either treasured in the palaces of various countries, held in the hands of world-famous knights, or lost.

Zhanlu was once a treasure of the Yue Kingdom, enjoying the name of the sword of benevolence and the sword of emperors, which attracted many coveted.

At that time, Emperor Yuan was still the prince of Da Yuan. He was young and arrogant. Hearing the name of Wang Jian, he directly led his troops to the country of Yue.

At that time, the country of Vietnam was being besieged by many countries, and it was stubbornly resisting, forming a delicate balance.

Under such circumstances, Emperor Yuan set up a formation and drove straight in, playing with the armies of other nations, and went straight out with his sword, and became famous in the first battle.

Since then, Zhan Lu has become his saber. Followed him to conquer the world, seized the reserves, washed the imperial city with blood, witnessed countless history, and was shelved after he ascended the throne.

It can be said that this sword has accompanied Emperor Yuan for most of his life, and its symbolic significance is no less than his personal presence.

This is also the reason why the former Emperor Zongluo felt ashes after seeing the imperial decree written by Zhan Luhe himself.

Emperor Yuan raised his sword and pulled a sword flower with ease.

A sword is a sword, even if it is not used for many years, there is no lag when unsheathed.

"Come here." He waved to Zongluo, took Zhan Lu back into the scabbard, pushed his palm flat, placed it behind the hilt, and pushed it gently.

In the next second, like a conjuration, the hilt of the sword, which was just fine, opened a gap, revealing an empty box that was square and square inside.

"The universe in the sword?!" Zong Luo was deeply shocked.

Among the top ten swords in the world, five were cast by Ou Yezi, the master swordsmith of the previous dynasty, who had already ascended to the throne, leaving countless legends and stories.

It is said that Ou Yezi left a "world in the sword" in his most satisfactory works. If he is lucky enough to find it, he can get the precious treasure left by Ou Yezi in it.

The most famous swords cast by Ou Yezi are Qixing Longyuan, Zhanlu, Tai'a, Juque and Yuchang. Among them, Yuchangjian is an assassin's soft sword, and it is impossible to leave room for heaven and earth in the sword; the whereabouts of Juquejian are unknown hundreds of years ago.

There are three traces left, Qixing Longyuan is in the hands of Zongluo, Tai'a is in the hands of Yu Beizhou, and Zhanlu is in the hands of Emperor Yuan.

Tai A was an evil sword, and after the sword was formed, Ou Yezi threw it off the top of the mountain and didn't ask any more questions. Zhanlu is the sword of benevolence, and after it became a sword, it was dedicated to the emperor of the previous dynasty.

Therefore, the world and the master swordsmith also speculated that the universe in the sword was hidden by Ou Yezi on the Qixing Longyuan.

Zongluo also agreed.

When the master Guiguzi gave him this sword, Zongluo often touched the hilt of the sword, wanting to see which corner of Qixing Longyuan hidden in the sword. Just haven't been able to find any clues over the years.

Looking at it today, he realized that the universe in the sword was actually hidden on Zhanlu by Ou Yezi!

It is said that it is the universe in the sword, but in fact it is just a very clever position on the hilt of the sword to open a few inches of openings, which can be put in.

Emperor Yuan said with emotion: "I was seriously injured on the battlefield once, and I accidentally opened the sword and took the magic medicine left by Ou Yezi in Neili, only to save my life."

No wonder it was empty and there was nothing in it. It turned out to be taken by Emperor Yuan long ago.

No one would have thought that what Ou Yezi left behind in the sword was actually a magic medicine. Thinking about it, this is indeed a precious treasure. After all, for sword users, the magic elixir that can save a life is always more effective than the experience of forging swords.

Zongluo was amazed in his heart for a while, until after Emperor Yuan put Zhan Lu into his hands, he still didn't respond: "...Father?"

"From now on, this sword will be yours."

Emperor Yuan put it lightly, as simple as drinking water and eating: "It suits you better than Qixing Longyuan."

Zong Luo was startled, and Zhan Lu couldn't hold it firmly in his hand, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

In fact, Master Guiguzi said something similar when he gave him the Seven Stars Longyuan.

"The top ten famous swords in the world are either lost, or they have a master. Although Qixing Longyuan is good, the width of the sword is a little narrower than what you are used to. It's a pity that Zhan Lu already has a master. Otherwise, it is the most suitable sword for you."

At that time, although he heard this, Zong Luo did not take it to heart.

Only his master would be picky in every possible way. In fact, after he got the world-famous Qixing Longyuan, he was so happy and crazy, how could he go to the sword of the tyrant father who Xiao Xiang had never met at the time.

Who would have thought that, after going around, this sword would be gifted by Emperor Yuan himself in this life.

The emperor frowned: "How come you can't even hold the sword. If you can't hold the sword, how can you stabilize the world?!"

"Father, this is really too precious. What's more, Zhan Lu is your saber, and my son would never dare to accept it!"

The prince in white picked up Zhan Lu, his arms were heavy, and there was a feeling of unreality like a dream.

In the last life, he was given the sword of self-determination, but now it was given by Emperor Yuan himself.

"I am the emperor, and I am no longer a general."

Emperor Yuan said coldly: "Although this sword is good, if you follow me, you can only enter the imperial mausoleum to be buried with you. Wouldn't it be better if you could witness the feat of dominating the world?"

not to mention......

Emperor Yuan picked up the scabbard and threw it to him together.

After a long while, he said very calmly: "Since you have the sword, don't do anything stupid to me."

Zong Luo was stunned.

He remembered the scene when Emperor Fang Caiyuan said he dreamed of the imperial city killing himself.

Yes, if Emperor Yuan dreamed, how could he not be able to tell whether it was Qixing Longyuan or Zhanlu in his hand.

Zongluo couldn't be sure what Emperor Yuan dreamed, but he knew that maybe his father didn't know what happened in the dream, so he gave Zhan Lu to him.

And tell him not to do stupid things.
