Chapter 391 It shouldn’t be like this
In order to prevent anyone from proposing marriage to him again, Chu Boyuan spread the word that he was a homosexual.
Come on if you are willing to let your daughter be buried with the official sand!
After he made such a fuss, the days were quiet for a while.
The day when the old general returns is getting closer.
The general's wife broke her leg and could barely walk with the help of crutches.
If she doesn't act like a troublemaker, Huandie won't bother to pay attention to her.
When the old general comes back, everyone will die, so Huandie is not in a hurry to kill her.
After waiting and waiting, the day to return to the city finally arrived.
Huandie was even more active than Chu Baiyuan and waited outside the city gate early in the morning.
Looking at the army getting closer and closer, there was uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.
The first thing he received was not the old general, but the sad news that he was dead.
Huandie's smile froze on her face, and she muttered, "No, it's impossible..."
Jump onto the carriage and lift the coffin lid.
Some people wanted to stop him, but when they saw Chu Baiyuan following him, they stopped.
Even though corpse spots had appeared on the body, Huandie still refused to believe it and reached out her hand tremblingly to feel the old general's breath.
"Dead, really dead... then what does everything I've done matter? What's the meaning of my life?"
Chu Boyuan held his head, hugged him tightly in his arms, and said softly: "A son pays his father's debts. Come and hate me."
Two lines of clear tears fell from Huandie's cheeks. Did it make him hate Chu Boyuan?
Can I really hate it?
Chu Boyuan continued to persuade.
"Hate me, Fluttershy."
"Put all your anger and resentment on me."
"If this makes you feel better, please hate me as much as you want."
The carriage carrying the coffin soon arrived at the general's mansion. The general's wife saw that the person she had been thinking about day and night had turned into a corpse.
He was so grief-stricken and angry that he hit his head against the coffin and died with the old general.
She had loved this man since she was a child and finally married him as she wished.
But on the second day after his wedding, General Chu unexpectedly received an imperial order and had to rush to the border.
After being married for decades, they rarely see each other.
She placed all her longing for her husband on her only son.
That's why she interfered too much with Chu Boyuan. Now that the person she loved most was dead, she was left guarding this house, not knowing who to wait for in the future. It would be better for her to go with her lover.
"Mom!" Chu Boyuan roared and rushed over.
It was too late, he lost two of his closest relatives at once.
Huandie kept shaking his head as he looked at the scene in front of him.
It's messed up, everything is messed up.
His original plan was to let the old general watch in despair as the entire city turned into a breeding ground for butterflies, and let him watch his family being devoured by the butterflies before his own eyes.
Make him despair and make his life worse than death.
And now, Chu Baiyuan was crying while holding his mother's body, and lying in the carriage was his father, whom he had only seen a few times since he was born.
This is not what Huandie wants.
Later, they learned from the soldiers that they encountered an epidemic during their march and were saved by a one-eyed doctor with a crutch.
It was also when he gained everyone's trust that he poisoned the old general.
Hearing this, Huandie excitedly grabbed the man's collar and asked, "Where is the one-eyed doctor?"
"Don't worry, we've killed him."
Huandie sat down on the ground limply, as if she had lost her soul.
That was his only remaining member of the tribe, and now he is dead.
In order to prevent him from making the same mistake again, the old man chose to bear his fate.
It's so sad. The only two people left each hope that the other can survive.
And the result...
Chu Boyuan quickly adjusted his mood and came over to comfort Huandie.
Spending the rest of his life peacefully with this man is the best choice the old man leaves for him.
When Huandie was about to accept her fate and stay with Chu Boyuan until old age, an accident happened.
Chu Boyuan received the letter from the emperor, opened it and took a look at it. He was so angry that he punched the wall.
Huandie beside him was stunned for a moment, then grabbed his arm to check if his fist was injured.
"What's in the letter? You're so angry."
"My parents haven't even passed the seventh day of their first lunar month, and the dog emperor is already eager to invite me to a palace banquet."
"What's the hurry?"
"He's anxious for me to go out and find him some elixir of immortality."
Huandie muttered, "Elixir of Life..."
The memory went back to the day of the genocide. The clan leader kept explaining to the soldiers, "We really don't have any so-called elixir of life here!"
It was unclear whether Huandie was laughing or crying, and she kept repeating, "It's him...it's him...it turns out to be him..."
"Xiaodie, what's wrong with you?"
Huandie shook her head and smiled at him.
"Nothing, I was just wondering how long it would take for you to come back after you went to the palace for the banquet."
"It's hard to say. The dog emperor might just go crazy and ask me to lead the troops to war."
"Then I will have to wait for you for several years." Huandie said, slowly moving closer to him.
His eyes were ambiguous, and Chu Boyuan understood immediately.
"Xiaodie, are you planning to take away all the savings I've accumulated over the years I've been away?"
"What do you think?"
"I think it is."
The next day, Chu Boyuan woke up and covered Huandie, who was still sleeping, with a blanket.
Before leaving, I gently kissed my lover's forehead and left reluctantly.
"Xiaodie, wait for me to come back."
There was singing and dancing at the banquet, and there was no sign of the sadness of the beloved minister's recent death.
Chu Boyuan hated attending such occasions and used the excuse of sobering up to go out and relax.
Not long after he left, butterflies fluttered in the air at the banquet, and a slender figure, playing the pipa, walked towards the emperor step by step.
The emperor thought that this was a beauty sent by his beloved minister, so he was not on guard.
He even reached out to Huandie.
At this time, the butterflies had surrounded the emperor.
Huandie chuckled and asked, "Your Majesty, have you ever seen a butterfly foraging for food?"
"I've never noticed it."
"Now you see it."
Huandie stopped playing the pipa, and the butterflies swarmed towards the emperor.
The emperor's wails echoed throughout the banquet.
The chief eunuch shouted, "Help! Help the emperor!" but he did not dare to step forward.
Those who came to rescue the emperor were also swallowed by the butterflies, and the people present were scared and fled in all directions.
The scene was chaotic for a while, someone knocked over the candlestick, and accidentally discovered that butterflies are afraid of fire.
Everyone held a candlestick in their hands to drive away the butterflies and ran out desperately.
The guards arrived in time and collectively fired rockets into the banquet.
Huandie stood calmly in the sea of fire. He should have died with his people long ago.
The same rain of arrows, the same sea of fire, but this time it was just him.
Huandie closed his eyes, opened his arms, and waited for the sea of fire to embrace him.
"It's over, it's all over."
"Little Butterfly!"
Huandie opened his eyes and looked at the figure running towards him desperately.
"Go back! You are not allowed to come over here!" Huandie said as he retreated behind him.
"No! I can take you out! I can protect you!"
"It's too late. It's useless. No one can save me."
