A dragon drives a carriage.
The atmosphere became tense.
Liu Zheng looked at Xie Tianyao quietly, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Xie Tianyao's withered hands seemed to want to grab something, but failed to grab anything. He seemed to want to use force, but all his strength had long gone.
aged.
despair.
Liu Zheng's compassion at this time was not just for the emperor Xie Tianyao. Not only is it compassion for a life, but it is also compassion for oneself and for the entire human race.
Life, what is it.
Death, what is it?
Since ancient times, there have been many philosophers with various insights into life and death.
Life is only once for everyone. Putting aside those religious poisonous chicken soups, this statement is still recognized by most people.
However……
For Liu Zheng, it was not the case.
Because he actually lived twice.
Once in a previous life, in modern society.
One time was in Longyan, back in ancient times.
So Liu Zheng actually has his own views on life and death. He actually takes a relatively light view of life and death. He has lived twice, what else is there to regret? Of course, there will be those trivial regrets, regrets for my family, regrets for my brothers, regrets for my beloved woman, and regrets for the world.
But since Liu Zheng came to this world, everything he has brought, everything he has created, and the most basic carbon-based organisms in the universe, there is no regrets.
He changed the world so much.
How long can people live?
century?
What about Earth?
Four billion years.
What about the universe...
This is not alarmist, this is real data. Since birth, everyone has been struggling, living, jumping, trying to realize their own life value and realizing their dreams... However, have you ever thought about how important your life value is to you? For the entire universe, it's really not worth mentioning.
even.
Not even dust can compare.
So what else is there to worry about?
Liu Zheng has always hoped that he can live a more open-minded and generous life, and of course, he should also have a deeper life. Living this life well was what he hoped for. As for when death would come, he didn't think too much about it, because that would make him unhappy.
Why bother?
Looking at Xie Tianyao like this, he began to count Xie Tianyao's past and achievements in his life.
In fact, Xie Tianyao's life was exciting enough.
He is actually a very qualified emperor. The Longyan Dynasty was already in danger before and was in danger of falling apart. Xie Tianyao relied on his own method of checks and balances to extend Long Yan's life span by more than forty years...
He is diligently governing this country, and he is diligently looking for a way out for this country.
enough.
Worth it.
"I……"
"I……"
"I……"
Xie Tianyao, struggling hard, seemed to be on the verge of death. He wanted to speak, maybe because he felt that his end was approaching. He no longer insisted on using the word "I". He knew that facing death, he was also an ordinary person. A person, an ordinary person with a better background than others, nothing more.
"Your Majesty, I'm here..."
"Wei Chen..."
Liu Zheng didn't know what to say.
Although he has a clear understanding of life and death, when he is really faced with a person's life or death, the sadness in his heart can't help but emerge.
He slowly walked over, squatted next to Xie Tianyao's bed, and grabbed his withered hand.
Xie Tianyao smiled forcefully, and finally there was a hint of color in his cloudy eyes.
"I, I'm tired..."
"tired……"
Xie Tianyao trembled and struggled to get these words out of his mouth.
"Your Majesty..."
Liu Zheng couldn't help but feel sad.
Thinking back to the time when he met Xie Tianyao, he wanted to liquidate himself several times, but he still couldn't bear it. Several times he fought openly and secretly, but he still kept himself... because Liu Zheng knew that an emperor would definitely not be like that. Help the scholar-bureaucrats, the old nobles are generally small. He watched Long Yan getting better and stronger, and he had his own criteria for judging...
did not expect.
In such confrontations, he has slowly aged.
The majesty it once had is no longer there.
He is tired.
He was indeed tired.
Long Yan is too big, he has too many things to worry about.
"I understand..."
Liu Zheng thought for a moment and could only respond with these two words.
Xie Tianyao laughed at himself.
After saying those few words just now, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength. If he wanted to speak again, he still needed to slow down for a while.
"Secret, secret is not mournful..."
Xie Tianyao suddenly grabbed Liu Zheng's hand with force, and his cloudy eyes suddenly became bright.
Liu Zheng was shocked and his face turned pale.
"The secret is not mourning..."
Xie Tianyao insisted on what he said. He grabbed Liu Zheng's hand and began to exert force.
"Big funeral, return to Beijing..."
"Go back to Beijing..."
"Again……"
"Again……"
Liu Zheng also began to tremble all over.
He had thought that Xie Tianyao would die one day, and that the old emperor who had been fighting with him would die, but he still didn't expect that it would happen right in front of him. He probably wasn't mentally prepared yet...
Xie Tianyao died.
Long Yan is really going to be in chaos.
He didn't expect...
It will be at this time.
"woo woo woo woo……"
At this time, the imperial doctors around them, as well as Yuan Qingming and Manager Zhou, all knelt down one by one. They wanted to cry loudly, but they kept holding back for fear that people outside would hear them. You know, this is still on the way to the prince's funeral... At this time, the emperor's death is not a good thing.
"You say……"
Liu Zheng also felt sad in his heart.
Xie Tianyao used his last strength and looked at the young man Liu Zheng. He seemed to remember the first time he went to Liangzhou and discussed politics with the young man in front of him in the car... Liu Zheng at that time was still a little immature. , at that time Xie Tianyao was still high-spirited and majestic...
Then.
He thought again of Liu Zheng he saw on his birthday last year.
At that time, all he saw in Liu Zheng were the shadows of his own youth.
pity.
He is not his son...
Unfortunately, he is not of his own blood.
only.
Now, he is going to die. Why should we regret these regrets?
Death is like a lamp going out.
"Back to Beijing..."
"Xie Ming succeeded to the throne..."
"The vassal king sends troops..."
"Territory exchange..."
Xie Tianyao burned his life and said these last few words.
"What?"
Liu Zheng was shocked, and his expression suddenly changed.
Xie Tianyao looked at him deeply for the last time.
then.
Finally, his head tilted.
Die forever.
