The night was as cool as yesterday, the dark fragrance of the courtyard dyed a sleeve of clothes, and the brightly lit room was lined up with heavily armed soldiers, and a touch of bright yellow stood in front of the eaves. The palace maids who were accompanying them all looked at the person in front of them with bated breath, neither daring to remind them loudly, nor daring to rush forward.

The emperor has been waiting outside for a long time, but the prince just sits like this, letting Xian Yi tidy up his makeup. He is not a woman, he doesn't need to sketch, let alone fancy clothes, he just asks Xian Yi to roll up his hair one by one, and it doesn't fall at all. His nails were neatly trimmed, his ten knuckles were lightly buckled on the table, and he occasionally stroked the hairpin in front of him, and his eyes looked at the emerald green glass, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Childe, it's okay. Xian Yiwan took the last strand of hair, picked up the hairpin, and gently and steadily inserted it into the flawless hair. Flawless eyes moved, and finally stood up and turned his head.

Li Zongzhi was still standing there, not annoyed or annoyed, and when he looked back, he showed a smile: "Okay? Okay, I'll go with me." ”

Flawless didn't speak, just looked sideways, then picked up the gold silk mask on the table and walked out.

"Childe!" Xian Yi grabbed the cloak and followed, stopping Flawless in front of the eaves, and put the cloak on his shoulder.

"The snow is big, and the son can cover it. ”

Xianyi's voice trembled a little, she didn't know what was going to happen tonight, but she had a strong feeling, and the moment Flawless stepped out of the door, she felt as if he wouldn't come back. The choked throat made Xianyi breathless, and she tried to hold Flawless and pause again, but Flawless smiled softly at her with the corners of her eyes, and then put the mask on.

He had hidden himself under this mask countless times, not letting others peek into his heart, what he was afraid of was not the power and pressure he faced, but the fear that he would not be able to respond to the affection that Bai Yan gave him. If there is really no inflammation in this world, then the flaws will no longer exist. Death is not terrible, but if there is still a glimmer of hope for life, he would rather spend his life fighting for Bai Yan!

"I'm pulling you. Li Zongzhi was always smiling, no matter what kind of look was in his flawless eyes, he kept smiling until he clasped the cold five fingers between his fingers.

"Actually...... We are all helpless children......"

Standing side by side made Li Zongzhi's hand twitch slightly, he held the flawless hand a little hard, and then raised his head: "This country should belong to me, the death of the country is not my father's fault, what you want to take back from our Li family, I can return it to you bit by bit." ”

"What I want, you will never be able to give...... And what you want is not me, you just want to get back what you are missing on the road to growth. Although you are the emperor, you are not as good as the free little marquis in a fiefdom, you are jealous that he has the care of his father and mother, there are brothers who are born and died, and like-minded friends, but in the past, you needed to rely on him to help you fight for more things, so you are like a dormant beast to put away your claws and wait quietly, waiting for him to fight for you, for you to fight for the world, and now, you have to take away all the things he once had, one after another, in the end, you are just fulfilling your own demons......"

"Huh...... It's really comfortable to be with you, because everything doesn't have to be hidden, you know what I want and what I want, yes, I can't see him better than me! I can't get this kind of love you give him for the rest of my life, I can't watch him live comfortably, this is the world of the Great Jin, the world of the Li family, the surname is Li, not the surname Meng!"

"The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooking, the slingshot is hidden, it has always been like this, the emperor's house, the place of power, can't accommodate too much human ......"

"The Leng Gongzi back then, why wasn't it so ......"

The snowflakes are flying, the whispers are blown away by the wind, and they are slowly submerged in the vastness, and the grievances and grievances are only given to future generations to comment in the end, and how can the teahouse storyteller exhaust one or two, just like the land of frost and snow, there are more people walking, but ......

No more footprints!

"The emperor has arrived!"

"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

The voice from the opposite side made Li Zongzhi a little surprised. There was a banquet in the palace tonight, because the things to be carried out involved the court, he did not ask the Empress Dowager Bai to come with him. After hearing the rumor, he subconsciously looked at the courtiers who were already waiting in the main hall, and caught a glimpse of Bai Geyue's meaningful smile.

Scold!

He understood the reason for the matter, and also knew Bai Geyue's intention to reveal the news to the queen mother, and he felt that his aunt's means of strategizing, but he was also more determined about what he was going to do. After he let go of his flawless hand and stepped forward to greet his mother, he found that Zheng Wanxin was still standing next to the Queen Mother.

"Concubine Shu is not feeling well, so don't come on this occasion. He frowned, visibly disgusted. Zheng Wanxin sneered in return, slowly walked around to his side, first looked at Flawless who was standing aside, and then suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed Flawless.

"The concubine is the princess of Da Zheng, and I Da Zheng also has credit for the battle of Jiuyuan, although the soldiers have gone back, but the concubine knows the etiquette, naturally, she also wants to celebrate!"

"You!" Li Zongzhi was a little annoyed when he saw her move, and he avoided it for a while, and then looked inside facing the palace door.

Everyone was facing the gate, and a familiar figure in the crowd came into view. Flawless footsteps moved, and involuntarily walked forward.

Bai Yan!

Standing opposite was the person he loved so much! Everything around him seemed to cease to exist at that moment, and what he saw was the whole world.

Bai Yan is still so radiant, as if nothing can overwhelm him, that gentle smile makes people happy, his body exudes light, attracting himself to approach desperately!

"Hmm......"

The pain from his arm brought him back to his senses, and he looked at Li Zongzhi's hand that was clenched tightly, and suddenly he woke up.

"I haven't let you in yet. The words pulled the flawless thoughts back, and he stood still looking at Bai Yan and shook his head slightly.

No, you have to hold your breath. Bai Yan, no matter what happens, you have to be calm!

The abrupt everything surprised the unknown people, the Empress Dowager Bai looked at the scene in front of her, and saw Zheng Wanxin looking at the man in white in front of her with disgust and annoyance, she seemed to understand something in her heart. She coughed lightly and was about to speak, when suddenly, a flash of emerald green light flashed in her eyes and completely struck her heart.

That—

That's not!

She gasped involuntarily, reached out and grabbed a handful to the side, Mama Su followed by her side, saw her come and hurriedly stepped forward, and whispered: "What's wrong with the Queen Mother." ”

"Mourning...... Mourning ...... The mourning family is not feeling well......"

"Come on, send the Queen Mother back to the palace!" Seeing that the queen mother's face changed abruptly, Li Zongzhi was also a little anxious, he wanted to come forward to check, but the Queen Mother Bai took a step back as if she was dodging, and gasped: "The mourning family will go back by themselves, tonight is a big banquet in the palace, the emperor doesn't have to be distracted......"

As she spoke, she grabbed Mama Su's hand and walked back, and when she turned around again, she couldn't see the thing she had just seen.

"The Queen Mother's ......"

"Let's go...... Let's go!" Empress Dowager Bai walked very hurriedly, even a little panicked, Mama Su followed her all the way until she returned to the dormitory, and was thinking about asking someone to ask for a doctor, but unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Bai suddenly grabbed her and said sharply: "What about that thing? What about the beads?"

Mama Su was surprised in her heart, seeing that the Queen Mother was abnormal, she hurriedly branched out of her way, and then hurriedly asked, "What did the Queen Mother say?" ”

"That bead! The emperor gave Zhi'er and ...... and ......" At this moment, Mama Su finally came back to her senses, she was frightened by this sudden scene, and she couldn't help but stand on end, and her heart was pounding: "Okay, why did the Queen Mother suddenly ask about this? Isn't the bead closed! ”

"Go, go, go, bring it to me!" Empress Dowager Bai panicked and frightened Mama Su, Mama Su ran into the dormitory and said urgently: "It's been twenty years, why did the Queen Mother suddenly mention this...... That was ...... back then."

Back then, apart from himself and Wen Po, only Wu Fanzhong knew about it......

Now that the emperor is firmly seated in the country of the Great Jin Dynasty, Wu Fanzhong is already a dying man, the people around Li Yu have long been eliminated by Wu Fanzhong, except for the eunuch Chen Zhong who ran away, no one knows anymore, 20 years have passed, that matter has been calm, why did the Queen Mother suddenly ask the old question again?

"Look, here, this bead has been placed under the Queen Mother's pillow for twenty years, why does it make the Queen Mother so anxious?" Opening the brocade box, Mama Su put the glass beads inside into the hands of the Queen Mother Bai, and then turned around to pour hot tea. The Empress Dowager Bai held the glass in her hand and looked at it carefully, looking at the words inlaid in the glass, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she cried in a trembling voice: "The mourning family seems to be ...... It's like seeing ......"

"What do you see?"

"I saw another flame bead......

"Smack!" The teacup fell to the ground, Mama Su's face instantly turned pale, she looked at the Empress Dowager Bai with trembling lips, a little overwhelmed, she seemed to want to deny it, but she was shocked by the Empress Dowager Bai's expression, unable to speak, squatting in a trance to pick up the pieces, and accidentally was pierced with blood.

No!

Twenty years have passed, and that kid has not had the slightest news at all, Wu Fanzhong has been searching for so many years and has found nothing, how could he suddenly appear here! It must be a mistake, it must be!

"The Queen Mother must have seen it wrong, she saw it wrong!"

"That bead is in front of the mourning family, on the head of the man in white! Even if it is just a glance, the mourning family will definitely not be mistaken! When the first emperor gave the bead to the mourning family and Li Yun, Li Yun often played with it in her hand, she once laughed that her child would definitely become a light in her life like the name given by the first emperor, but ...... She was too tough and refused to be controlled by others, and the mourning family succumbed to Wu Fanzhong's coercion, and she became a victim in the power struggle...... Her children...... Her child—"

On the day of birth, it was gone......

That was the real eldest son of the first emperor, the child who was born and should have become the prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, disappeared on the day he was born......
