Mʏ Tᴏᴜɢʜ Hᴜsʙᴀɴᴅ2 - Chapter 44: Chapter 44

Although the old man could see Han Tingxuan, he did not know how to deal with Han Tingxuan’s situation.
In the next three days, when most of the Jin Dynasty was destroyed, Mo Yanzhi’s eyes got colder and colder.
Since the old man was only here to deliver message, Mo Yanzhi did not ask the old man to pass the message between him and Han Tingxuan in the past three days.
As time drew closer, Mo Yanzhi didn’t want to say anything.
Mo Yanzhi was despaired all day long.
On this day, Yang Shuo returned with a group of secret guards. They had completed their mission.
However, Mo Yanzhi didn’t see him.
Yang Shuo went back to Yue Youbai’s tent and heard about Mo Yanzhi’s abnormality these days.
Yang Shuo and Yue Youbai were silent. The Emperor really cared about Prince Chen’s husband!
Yang Shuo hugged Yue Youbai and smiled. “I’m back.”
Yue Youbai nodded and rolled his eyes. “I didn’t expect you to spend such a short amount of time.”
Yang Shuo was silent and sighed. “Because of Li Huo.”
“Did he come back with you?” Yue Youbai asked.
Yang Shuo shook his head. “He’s dead.”
Yue Youbai was startled. “How could that be?”
Yang Shuo said softly, “I’m afraid he did it on purpose. We assassinated the emperor of the Jin Dynasty and killed two princes and the crown prince. We succeeded all thanks to Li Huo. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to enter Jin Dynasty’s iron-bucket like palace. He took us to the secret underground road of the palace.”
Yue Youbai was scared. “There have always been some secret paths that others don’t know in the palace. What a surprise that he knew it so well.”
Yang Shuo nodded. “Everyone has their own story. He took revenge but betrayed the Jin Dynasty. He has no reason to live in the world.”
Yue Youbai fell silent, then hugged Yang Shuo tightly. “I’m rather lucky.”
Yang Shuo smiled. “You are lucky because you don’t have to betray the Yue Empire?”
“Yes,” Yue Youbai nodded. “I don’t have to betray my country. Li Huo was forced to do so, right?”
“It’s all because of Wu Xian,” Yang Shuo said coldly. “It’s a pity that we still can’t find Wu Qian and Wu Qiankun. However, there is no much of Wu Qiankun’s influence left.
Yue Youbai nodded. “That’s right. After Yun Yuan betrayed him, most of Wu Qiankun’s power was gone. But his martial arts are very strong. He and Wu Xian combined is a big threat.”
“Have you seen Yun Yuan?” Yang Shuo asked.
“Yes, Yun Yuan came here five days ago. His Majesty asked me to entertain him.”
Yang Shuo sighed. “I learned Yun Yuan’s name from Brother Han. But now Brother Han is so different.”
Yue Youbai said, “It is hard to see if he can survive this disaster.”
Yang Shuo didn’t say anything, and both of them looked so sad.
On the last day of the three months deadline, the old man was sent back to the village. Mo Yanzhi brought Han Tingxuan to a cliff at the border.
All the secret guards were worried that Mo Yanzhi might commit to suicide, so they stared at him.
Shadow One said, “Your majesty, the crown prince is still young. He needs you.”
Mo Yanzhi looked at Shadow One coldly and said, “Do you think I will kill myself?”
Shadow One froze and didn’t say anything.
At the edge of the cliff, Mo Yanzhi sat down with Han Tingxuan in his arms since the sunrise.
Han Tingxuan’s soul was floating beside him. The jade around his neck was almost invisible.
Mo Yanzhi didn’t say anything. He remained seated there from sunrise to sunset.
Secret guards brought over food but he didn’t have a single bite. In fact, his body didn’t move at all.
After sunset, night fell. Mo Yanzhi still didn’t move.
Han Tingxuan looked sadly at the jade which was not glowing at all.
When midnight arrived, Han Tingxuan suddenly felt a tearing pain.
The pain of his soul being torn apart caused Han Tingxuan to let out a groan and scream.
However, no one could see him nor hear his scream. The old man that could see him was now sent away.
Therefore, no one could hear Han Tingxuan’s voice…
Gradually, the pain disappeared and Han Tingxuan’s soul was also split.
Mo Yanzhi felt that the body in his arms was getting cold, as if he had not felt anything.
Shadow One was closest to Han Tingxuan. At first, he could still feel his weak breath. But now… he could feel nothing.
Shadow One felt a pain in his heart and his body stiffened. Prince Chen’s husband was dead?
As midnight passed, dawn came again. Mo Yanzhi remained seated.
Holding Han Tingxuan in his arms, Mo Yanzhi saw the sunrise which was so bright.
After the sunrise, Mo Yanzhi stood up with Han Tingxuan in his arms and said. “Have you found the place?”
Shadow One immediately replied, “Yes.”
“Then let’s go,” said Mo Yanzhi lightly.
He didn’t ride a horse. He just walked over with holding Han Tingxuan in his arms.
Shadow One led the way for four hours before stopping in a cave under a gorge.
The temperature here was extremely low. Even though it was already very hot outside, it was very cold here.
Especially after entering the cave, it was bone-chilling cold without using internal skills.
Mo Yanzhi didn’t use the internal force. He just walked inside with Han Tingxuan in his arms as if he felt nothing.
The cave, no, the ice cave was extremely cold.
Mo Yanzhi carried Han Tingxuan to the innermost area. There was no coffin or something like that. There was only a piece of ice that was as tall as two people. Mo Yanzhi used the internal force to smash the thick ice, then put Han Tingxuan in it and buried him with many huge ice bits.
After doing all this, Mo Yanzhi leaned over and kissed the ice. After a long time, he got up, turned around, and walked out step by step.
Outside the cave, a shadow guard stood there with an old man.
Mo Yanzhi looked at the old man and only asked one question. “Is he… still here?”
The old man shook his head.
Mo Yanzhi seemed to have guessed it, but he seemed to have heard nothing. He just left step by step.
Many of the secret guards lowered their heads. Shadow One was the last one. After everyone left, he smashed the entrance of the cave and sealed it.
This was Mo Yanzhi’s order: to keep everyone out of this place.
As soon as he finished this, he caught up with others. His heart was broken.
Five years later, at Prince Xian’s residence.
At night, Han frowned. “Where’s your prince?”
The secret guard replied, “In the study room.”
“Why is he in the study again?” Han frowned even tighter.
The secret guard didn’t answer and Han didn’t expect him to answer. After he got the answer, he went to the study room.
Tian Yusu was really busy in the study.
Han pushed the door open and walked in. Tian Yusu looked up and smiled when he saw Han. “You’re back?”
He nodded. “Mmm, I’ve been back very late in the past few days. Why are you even later than me every time?”
Tian Yusu sighed. “There’s no other choice. Your brother Mo’s order. It is quite urgent.”
Han paused for a moment. “Brother Mo…is he okay?”
Tian Yusu also paused. “Yes or no, like always.”
Han lowered his head. He was a little depressed. “Well, I’ll go back to my room first.”
Tian Yusu put down his work and stood up. “I’ll follow you.”
Han glanced at him. “Aren’t you busy with work yet?”
“I have to sleep anyway,” Tian Yusu said with a smile.
Han didn’t say anything else. They went back to their room together.
After the two of them took a shower, they were lying on the bed. Han hugged Tian Yusu and did him twice.
Tian Yusu couldn’t help saying, “Be gentle… I am too old for this.”
Han smiled coldly. “How come? You are tight down there.”
Tian Yusu rolled his eyes. He was sweating slightly on his face. Han kissed the sweat on his forehead. “I’m sorry.”
“Every time you mention your Brother Mo and Brother Han, you are in a bad mood. What else can I do?” Tian Yusu complained.
Han apologized, “I’m sorry.”
Tian Yusu hugged him back. “Alright, I don’t blame you.”
Han nodded, pulled himself out, and then carried Tian Yusu in his arms. “I’ll bathe you.”
Even though they did it so many times, Tian Yusu still blushed. He was really not young now, at least not as young as Han.
Luckily he looked young and his internal skills were good. He looked like in his early twenties. Even so, his physical strength was not as powerful as Han.
Han was only 24 years old! And he was already in his thirties!
In fact, Tian Yusu didn’t know that he was more charming than before. That was why Han lost his control in bed. Tian Yusu’s face was too gorgeous, plus his noble and charismatic quality over the years.
After taking a shower, Tian Yusu was already asleep. Han got up without waking him. He put on his black clothes and got out of bed. Tian Yusu didn’t know it at all.
Han went straight to the imperial palace.
It might take a lot of procedures for him to get an official appointment with the emperor. Therefore, he chose to sneak into the imperial palace at night over the past years. After his brother passed away, Brother Mo got colder every day. Until now, Mo Yanzhi had not laughed. He did not even talk to him quite often.
Nevertheless, this night, Han went straight to Mo Yanzhi’s dormitory.
However, there should always be people in the dormitory, but now there was no one. Han immediately frowned.
At this moment, Shadow Three landed beside him. “Han.”
Han immediately looked him. “Where’s Big Brother?”
Shadow Three said, “The crown prince suddenly has a fever. His majesty is with him right now.”
Han was shocked. “I’ll go take a look.”
Shadow Three didn’t stop him and went with him.
When Han arrived, there were a lot of people inside the palace, but it wasn’t chaotic. There were also a lot of physicians there. But they are all outside.
Han was wearing a mask and he dressed as a secret guard. He went straight in. Everyone could only vaguely see a shadow when Han passed by.
The moment Han appeared, he sensed a cold stare. Han knew that the only person who could give him such a feeling was the current emperor.
Over the years, Mo Yanzhi’s martial arts had improved to a whole new level.
Han did not think he was Mo Yanzhi’s match right now!
Han took off his mask. “Big Brother, it’s me.”
Mo Yanzhi’s eyes were still cold, but less cold. “Why are you here?”
“Just want to take a look. Is the crown prince sick?” Han asked.
Mo Yanzhi replied yes and then sat there without saying a word.
At this moment, Shen Fangde walked out from the bedroom and knelt down at Mo Yanzhi. “Your Majesty, His Highness is fine. He is just catching a cold. I have performed treatment. As long as we take good care of him tonight and change his sweated underwear quite often, he will be better tomorrow.”
Mo Yanzhi nodded lightly. “Got it. Off you go.”
“Yes, I will come here tomorrow morning.”
Mo Yanzhi didn’t say a word, but Shen Fangde got the hint. He left.
Han said softly, “Big Brother, may I see the crown prince?”
Mo Yanzhi nodded slightly. Han opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he went in without saying anything.
Lying on the luxury bed, Tian Zhuoqing was already six years old. But he was well developed and tall. He was as tall as other kids at eight years old. And he was also mature and rational, like an adult.
He grew up completely in an elite education mode of the emperor. Now he was excellent at literature and martial arts. He was sophisticated, nothing like a six-year-old child at all.
He had been very sensible since he was two years old. He had never done any naughty things other kids would do. It was said that he was much more sensible than the former prince, Tian Zhuoyou.
However, Han had barely seen him smiling. He didn’t even know what he was thinking about. He looked so mature.
Although Tian Zhuoqing had a high fever, he was still consciousness. Now, he was awake.
He was a little surprised to see Han. “Uncle Han?”
Han nodded coldly. “Yes, it’s me. I’m here to see you.”
Tian Zhuoqing nodded. “I’m fine. Sorry to make you worry.” He didn’t speak like a child at all.
Han paused for a moment and said, “Lie misses you very much,” Zhou Lie was Han’s apprentice. Occasionally, Han would teach Tian Zhuoqing martial arts and bring Tian Zhuoqing to see the outside world. Therefore, Tian Zhuoqing and Zhou Lie knew each other.
Tian Zhuoqing paused and said, “There are a lot of things to learn recently. I’m afraid I can’t go out to play.”
At this moment, Han felt so sorry for the kid. “Whu do you learn so many things?”
Tian Zhuoqing said softly, “I am the crown prince. It is my duty.”
Han closed his eyes and said a few more words with Tian Zhuoqing before leaving.
Mo Yanzhi was still sitting in his seat. As Han was just about to say something, Mo Yanzhi said softly, “Now that you’ve seen him, you should go back.”
Han finally couldn’t say anything.
After Han left, Mo Yanzhi walked into the bedroom. The moment Tian Zhuoqing saw Mo Yanzhi, his eyes lit up.
“Emperor Father.”
Mo Yanzhi nodded faintly. “Have a good rest.”
Tian Zhuoqing nodded. “Yes, I see.”
Mo Yanzhi glanced at the kid and left without saying anything.
Tian Zhuoqing was disappointed. The disappointment on his face, which looked basically the same as Mo Yanzhi, only lasted for a moment before he calmed himself down.
He was already used to the fact that his Emperor Father wasn’t close to him.
Mo Yanzhi walked slowly, step by step, as if he no longer existed.
When he arrived at his dormitory, Mo Yanzhi soaked himself into the bath pool. But the warm water couldn’t warm his heart. He soaked himself for a long time.
Long time later, Mo Yanzhi stood up, put on his underwear and went back to the dorm.
Lying on the big but cold bed, Mo Yanzhi slowly closed his eyes.
In the past five years, he never dreamed of his husband. He didn’t know why. All he had was his memory.
But this night, for some reason, he dreamed of him.
In his dream, Han Tingxuan smiled at him and said, “Wait for me, Yanzhi. I’ll be back soon. Wait for me. Take care of our son.”
Early in the morning, when he woke up from his dream, Mo Yanzhi’s cheeks were full of tears.
He will come back? Mo Yanzhi sneered. How come? How? What a dream!
He got out of bed, put on his clothes and went to practice his sword skills. It was still early now. He could practice for more than half an hour before the morning meeting time…
