Stigma

Sui Yan was still a little afraid of Suixun because of the shadows of his childhood. His brother glared at him, and his legs seemed to weaken.

Sui Yan was thinking about how to fool the past with fear. Duan Mingchong, who was so pale with fright, turned around and said to Suixun, "General Sui, don't scare A Yan."

Suixun: "..."

I was the one who was scared!

Duan Mingchong watched Suixun suppressing his anger and went out, then turned his head to look at Sui Yan gently and sadly, and whispered, "Don't be afraid."

Sui Yan was a little guilty: "I..."

Duan Mingchong forced a smile and said with difficulty: "I... don't be afraid, Daddy will protect you."

Sui Yan: "..."

Sui Yan was so scared that all the knives in his hand fell.

Duan Mingchong was probably afraid that Sui Yan would be stimulated again, so he followed his words and saw Sui Yan's face full of confusion, and once again emphasized "Daddy protect you" several times.

Sui Yan's pale lips trembled for a moment before he tried to make a confused expression of waking up from a big dream. He tilted his head and said, "Your Highness?"

Duan Mingchong was taken aback for a moment, then there was no trace of relief, and he smiled: "Ayan, you finally woke up."

Duan Ming Chong took a few words of verbal advantage. Seeing that Sui Yan didn't seem to be too strange, he hadtily exhorted a few words and turned and walked out of the inner room.

Sui Yan said, "His Royal Highness, where are you going?"

Duan Mingchong only left behind: "I'll be quiet first."

He sat on the soft chair in the outer room, propped his head to reflect on it for a moment, and his flushed face gradually subsided.

Sui Yan had put on his clothes and came out, pinching the kerchief in the palm of his right hand, blocking the **** mouth. At this time, there was no more bleeding.

Suixun sat in the outer room, with his nose slanted, Sui Yan came out of the outer room. The anger he had accumulated for a long time was about to explode. Before he spoke, he smelled a faint **** breath.

Suixun is an expert in the field, very sensitive to the smell of blood, frowned and said, "Are you injured?"

Duan Mingchong was also busy to see him.

Sui Yan tossed the veil at random, shook the bloodless wound at them, and said, "It's nothing serious, it's bleeding a little."

He instinctively sat next to Duan Mingchong, and said to Suixun: "Brother, do you have anything to do with me?"

Speaking of this, Suixun recalled that his stupid brother was holding on to Duan Mingchong's father. His complexion suddenly became unsightly. He didn't dare to stare at the prince openly, so he gave Sui Yan a stern look and sneered. Sui Yan didn't hear anything.

Suixun general just put that scene away from his mind, and said: "I have planned to take Jiangning to Jiangnan after your birthday."

Duan Ming Chongzheng frowned to look at the wound in Sui Yan's palm, and raised his head slightly.

If it had been in the past, he would not have allowed Suixun to leave the capital so easily. After all, the Ministry of War is very important, and there are not many who can take on this important task. Once Suixun leaves, Chaozhong will definitely be in chaos for a while.

But now, Duan Mingchong looked down at the wound on Sui Yan's palm, and then glimpsed the blue marks on Sui Yan's eyes. It was rare that he didn't say anything.

Sui Yan was heartless, and said, "Okay, it's a success, Jiangnan is a good place, with beautiful mountains and clear waters."

Suixun looked at the thoughtful Duan Mingchong next to him, and saw that he hadn't forcibly retained him as before, and after a long time to speak, he sighed softly and said, "It's good if you know what you have in mind."

Sui Yan didn't speak.

Suixun asked a few more words before he got up and left. Before leaving, he glanced at Duan Mingchong with a complicated expression, and sighed in his heart.

As soon as Suixun left, Duan Mingchong said, "Ayan, don't you want to go to Jiangnan?"

Sui Yan was handing the white yarn to Duan Mingchong. Hearing that his hand stiffened, he smiled and said, "What will I do in Jiangnan? My second sister has always loved Jiangnan's landscape. My brother took her to visit the mountains and rivers. I was there. What's the matter?"

Duan Ming Chong pursed his lips, Sui Yan leaned forward gently, smiled slyly, and said, "Or does your Highness want to accompany me to Jiangnan?"

The old emperor’s health was worse than every day, and the prince would never leave Beijing at this juncture.

Duan Mingchong frowned.

Sui Yan said, "If you don't go, I will go to Jiangnan to play something by myself. It's boring."

Duan Mingchong did not speak.

After nightfall, Sui Yan wanted to do the same, holding the bitter medicine to refresh his mind, but when he got up in the middle of the night, he found that Angri had been filled with candied fruits for some time, and there was no herbal shadow.

Sui Yan was so sleepy that there were ghosts in front of him, and it took him a long time to react.

Duan Mingchong didn't know when he woke up, and sat quietly watching him flip through other hidden compartments, without saying a word to stop him.

Sui Yan turned over several times, and without exception, all the herbs in it were replaced with candied fruit.

The candied fruit is sweet and fragrant, not to mention refreshing, it is good if it is not hypnotized.

Sui Yan trembled and turned his head, looking at Duan Mingchong almost resentfully.

Duan Mingchong had never been seen by his eyes, and immediately took a breath, but did not speak.

Always entangled by nightmares, Sui Yan's temperament has also changed a little. He used to stare Mingchong and felt distressed, but now he has no strength to conceal his inner resentment and anger.

He was angry and desperate.

After struggling for a while, Sui Yan tremblingly stretched out his hand towards Duan Mingchong, smiled ingraciously, and tremblingly said: "Hall, Your Highness, where's my herbal medicine..."

Duan Mingchong put his hand on Sui Yan's palm, and whispered softly, "It's time for you to sleep."

"Sleep? Sleep?" Sui Yan looked at him blankly, and slammed Duan Mingchong's hand away, his face was full of horror, "I don't sleep, I'm not sleepy at all..."

He struggled and went to get the small carving knife he had hidden under the pillow, and almost turned over the mattress, but didn't even find the scabbard.

"Where is my knife?" Sui Yan was anxious, "Where did my knife go? Where did you hide it?"

As he said, he wanted to crawl over to turn over Ming Chong's body, but was instead grabbed by Duan Ming Chong and held his hands in his arms.

Duan Mingchong gently stroked Sui Yan's palm, and said, "In order to stay awake and self-mutilate like this, don't you think I feel bad?"

Sui Yan immediately retracted his hand from Duan Mingchong's palm, held it tightly behind his back, and forcefully defended his eyes with trepidation, "I got it accidentally-where's the knife? Your Highness, Your Royal Highness, my knife. Woolen cloth?"

Duan Mingchong didn't say a word, and took out the small carving knife that Sui Yan had hidden on the bed from his sleeve. It was still stained with blood that Sui Yan hadn't had time to wipe off before.

Sui Yan breathed a sigh of relief immediately, and was about to reach out to grab it, but Duan Mingchong pressed him into his arms.

Sui Yan didn't know why.

Duan Ming Chong's warm hand gently touched Sui Yan's neck, and followed the acupuncture points that Jun Jingxing gave him slightly and pressed it down.

Sui Yan's limp body trembled all over, and the already sleepy body could no longer hold it, and slowly slipped down, and was held in his arms by Duan Mingchong.

Duan Mingchong put him on the couch and stared at Sui Yan's frowning face even if he was lethargic. Only after a moment did he gently embrace him.

The crown prince is so powerful that he will get it no matter what he wants. This is the taste of powerlessness that he has experienced since childhood.

No matter how painful and desperate Sui Yan was, he could only watch from the sidelines, and could do nothing else.

·

Sui Yan once again fell into a nightmare repeated countless times.

He still ran back and forth in the ruined palace as usual. After an unknown period of time, he finally felt tired, so he staggered and sat directly on the side steps, looking at the void with a dazed expression.

Sui Yan lowered his head and looked at his hand, feeling that there seemed to be something missing on the white knuckles, and couldn't remember anymore.

He stared at his hands intently, and the cold wind roared around him, like a ghost crying.

Sui Yan suddenly said "Ah": "My finger..."

The memory deep in his mind made him remember subconsciously that he should have a finger on his hand.

The emerald green ones, I don't know who sent them, they are so beautiful.

It's gone now.

Sui Yan struggled to stand up, and started looking for what he was missing in the big courtyard like a demon.

"Finger, finger..."

Sui Yan ran around the palace like a ghost, and when he saw the emerald green color, he rushed forward, carefully identifying if it was something he had lost.

He put a jade jade bracelet on a finger and hooked it, tilted his head to identify it for a moment, and then murmured: "It seems too big."

After that, just throw it away and continue to look for the missing thing on the finger.

After Xun Xun Xun, he suddenly lowered his head and glanced, and then the whole person was awakened.

——He has no feet.

Only the real ghost has no feet.

Sui Yan suddenly opened his eyes, leaned against his chest and panted quickly, with cold sweat on his face.

It was already bright, and Duan Mingchong heard the movement and lifted the curtain in: "Ayan!"

Sui Yan panted quickly, and when he was almost out of breath, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

Duan Mingchong was almost frightened, and rushed forward frantically and hugged Sui Yan, while sternly calling out: "Mukou, Jun Jingxing!!!"

Sui Yan struggled to push him away, and his face quickly turned pale after spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Duan Mingchong rubbed the blood from the corners of his lips with red eyes, and his voice was trembling: "Ayan, don't scare me...Ayan!"

Sui Yan dropped his head and fainted again.

On the day of the Flower Festival, the entire Hou Mansion was in chaos.

Sui Xun listened to Sui Yan's difficult gasps in the inner room, and he was so irritated that he almost went out to kill someone. He couldn't sit still.

Jiang Ning sat aside and gently pressed his hand, and said softly, "Forgetting to return so young, nothing will happen."

Suixun didn't know what to say, so he could only nod his head.

Jun Jingxing has been busy for most of the day without touching his feet. Sui Yan, who was extremely restless in his sleep, finally fell into a deep sleep.

There was still a trace of blood flowing on his lips, which was wiped off by Duan Mingchong with shaking hands.

Looking at Sui Yan's face, Jun Jingxing frowned and said, "He is not in good health. Sooner or later he will not be able to stand it up if he continues like this."

Duan Mingchong grabbed Sui Yan's hand, his pupil shrank, and muttered, "Is there no way to cure it?"

Jun Jingxing hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I was in Jiangnan when I was a child, and the famous doctor Qian Lao who was taught medical skills at the time, but after so many years, I only learned some furs, which is unbearable. After Qian Lao passed away a few years ago, the medical school It was run by his personal disciples, that is, Qian Lao personally passed on, so the medical skills are naturally better than mine."

Looking at Duan Mingchong's face, Jun Jingxing cautiously said: "His Royal Highness wants to summon people from the south of the Yangtze River?"

Duan Ming Chong was stunned for a long time before shook his head gently: "No."

Sui Yan's fate seems to have been set in the dark.

Master Gengxue personally approved the catastrophe that had to be far away from the capital before he was 23 years old, and the famous Jiangnan doctor who might be able to save Sui Yan's life as mentioned by Jun Jingxing.

Jiangnan...

Perhaps for Sui Yan, Jiangnan is really a good place.

Even if the famous doctor was summoned to the capital to treat Sui Yan, he might not be able to survive this catastrophe.

Even if he barely survived, there might be more sufferings that Sui Yan could not bear in the future.

Sui Yan slept all day and night, and barely woke up on the third day.

When he woke up, there was no one in the room.

Sui Yan could not distinguish between reality and dreams at this time. She shrank timidly in the corner and shook her fingers. His pupils were distracted and unable to focus.

For a long time, he found a finger on his finger, which he couldn't find for a long time.

Sui Yan Wushen's eyes lit up slightly, he gently stroked his fingers, and muttered, "It's this..."

As if trekking through thousands of mountains and rivers, finally came to an end.

Even though Sui Yan was dizzy at this time, he instinctively held his fingers and smiled in a daze.

Duan Mingchong lifted the curtain of the bed, looked at Sui Yan who was shrinking in the corner, and then said, "Ayan."

Sui Yan immediately raised his head and looked at him with some horror when he heard the movement.

Duan Mingchong was not sure whether he knew him or not, so he tentatively stretched out his hand and whispered softly, "Ayan, this is Ming Chong, do you remember?"

Sui Yan looked down, staring at Duan Mingchong's slender fingers, and muttered, "Am I dead?"

Duan Ming Chong was taken aback.

He dumbly remembered that he seemed to have no legs, he was already a ghost, and it seemed nothing strange that the poisoned prince could see him.

He said "Oh" and didn't speak any more, still inadvertently turning the fingers on his fingers, looking like he couldn't put it down.

Duan Mingchong saw that he didn't recognize people anymore, and felt a pain in his heart, so he tried to keep a soft smile, handed him the medicine in his hand, and said, "Drink the medicine first."

Sui Yan looked at him suspiciously: "Do I have to take medicine after I die?"

Duan Mingchong coaxed him: "I want to eat."

He waved his hands twice like a wandering dragon, and said, "They all say ghosts and ghosts have monstrous mana. Even when I am dead, I still have to take medicine. This is the rule set by which Daluo god?"

Duan Ming Chong said: "Just take a sip."

Sui Yan was very foolish when his mind was not clear. After being coaxed by Duan Ming Chong, he took the bowl and took a sip.

Duan Mingchong took the bowl and said, "Is it bitter?"

Sui Yan's face wrinkled tightly: "Bitterness."

Duan Mingchong said again: "Then do you remember me?"

Sui Yan looked at Duan Mingchong with a faint expectation on his face, and said, "Aren't you the crown prince? I remember you."

Duan Mingchong looked a little lonely.

Sui Yan only felt that this person was so strange, and said that he was still so disappointed when he remembered him. Should he answer the question, don’t he remember?

He was playing with his fingers for a long time, only when his chaotic brain thought of everything.

Sui Yan shook his whole body, and his eyes instantly became clear.

"His Royal Highness..."

Duan Ming Chong was stunned for a moment before he condensed his loneliness, and chuckled softly: "It's me."

Sui Yan didn't dare to think about the things that happened just now, but was afraid after a while of heart palpitations.

He crawled from the bed and threw himself on Duan Mingchong, and said in a panic: "Your Highness! Your Highness!"

Duan Mingchong patted him on the back and whispered, "I am here."

Sui Yan hugged him for a long time before letting go of his hands with red eyes.

Duan Mingchong looked at him guilty and frightened, his heart trembling as if his heart was pierced by a sharp blade.

He forcibly laughed and said softly as possible: "Ayan, your brother will go to Jiangnan in a few days. I may not always be with you if I have something to do. It is not easy for you to recuperate in the capital, it is better... "

Sui Yan is now most afraid of others saying this. He froze for a moment, pushing Duan Mingchong's chest back, Liuli's eyes staring at Duan Mingchong not much light.

"Do you want me to go to Jiangnan?"

Duan Mingchong didn't know what to say, and after thinking about it for a long time, he said with difficulty: "Yes."

Sui Yan's expression cooled down and said, "I'm not going."

Duan Mingchong didn't want the two of them to be so stiff because of this kind of problem, he barely calmed down his expression and said softly, "As you said, Jiangnan is a good place. Pick you up, there will be no delay."

Sui Yan pushed him away, inexplicably angry, and sternly said: "I can't go!"

Duan Mingchong was startled by his sudden anger, and looked at him in amazement.

"Ayan..."

Not only him, but Sui Yan himself was frightened by this unwarranted resentment. He stayed there for a long time before raising his hand to cover his eyes and muttering, "I'm not going."

"I'm not going anywhere, I don't want to be separated from you..."

Duan Mingchong was afraid to scare him, and said cautiously: "It's only been a few years, and soon..."

Sui Yan took a few steps back into the corner of the bed, inhaled lightly, and put his hand off his eyes. When he took a closer look, his eye circles were already red, and his eyes were all begging.

"You...why do you have to send me away?" Sui Yan begged, "I have lived well in Beijing, but what's wrong with it other than having nightmares? I can recuperate, right? , Those medicines of Jun Jingxing...I won't spill them in the future, and make sure to finish every meal."

Duan Mingchong wanted to pull him.

Sui Yan broke away from his hand, his back was against the wall, unable to retreat.

He asked Duan Mingchong: "All right?"

Duan Mingchong met his gleaming eyes, and shook his head slightly after a long while.

"no."

Sui Yanman's eyes slowly faded away, and they became sad.

Duan Mingchong couldn't bear to see him like this. He stretched out his hand towards Sui Yan and said, "Ayan, I dare not gamble with your destiny, and I don't want to watch you torture myself so much but I can't do anything. , You just listen to me this time."

Sui Yan looked at him incredulously, limp in the corner, shivering.

"You...you want to drive me away..."

Duan Ming Chong said: "It's only three years..."

Sui Yan murmured: "Can I trust you?"

"If it's you..."

He hesitated and stopped.

Duan Mingchong is very aware of Sui Yan's temperament, and he has always felt that people who are as free and easy as Sui Yan will definitely not be so hypocritical and stupid that they would rather take their lives after being separated from Duan Mingchong for three years.

But he still couldn’t figure out why Sui Yan insisted on not leaving the capital. Hearing this conversation, he felt as if he had grasped something, and said hurriedly, "What if it is me? You say it, I will tell you. ."

Sui Yan looked at him blankly, and then whispered for a long time: "If I see you next time, would you send someone to give me wine?"

Duan Mingchong was taken aback, not knowing where he started.

"It was better before I separated from Duan Zhisu. I tried to rehabilitate him after trying my life. I worked hard for so many years..." Sui Yan was shaking all over, and his voice became weaker and weaker. "When I finally met again, but Only ended up with a cup of stigma."

Duan Ming Chong was stunned.

Sui Yan shrank and hugged his head in the corner, his messy long hair covered half of his face, but he couldn't stop him from being desperate.

"We are so good and so good now, but if after three years, you..." Sui Yan said, "You, like him, want my life..."

Sui Yan's voice finally brought some fearful crying.

"His Royal Highness, that poisonous wine, should I drink it or not?"
