In the prison of the Criminal Department, Yelan was leisurely meditating cross-legged on the couch, and suddenly heard a sparse woman's voice outside, the voice was soft and sweet, and after a while, the guard said, "The princess can go in, but not too long." Yelan understood who it was, and her heart was nameless.

Sure enough, only a burst of footsteps was heard, from far to near, becoming clearer and clearer, a woman dressed in white covered her face with a cape, the jailer unlocked the lock, made a "please" gesture at the woman, and then glanced at Yelan and retreated.

"What are you doing in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. Yelan looked at the comer and said quietly.

"His Royal Highness the King of Light. The woman took off her hat and revealed a pretty little face, which was incredibly beautiful. - Beixuan's little princess has always been known as the first beauty of Beixuan and even the entire Kyushu, but Yelan thinks that this first beauty not only refers to beauty, but also to the intelligence behind beauty.

"Your Highness the Princess. Yelan nodded at her, "Come here, Yeshu should know." ”

"His Royal Highness King Gong doesn't know now, maybe when I get out of this prison, His Royal Highness King Gong's people will report him. Lie Beiyao's eyes were smart and deep, and the whole person showed a maturity that did not match her age.

"You're smart. But why did you come to me?"

"That rainy night was assassinated, hunting was attacked, and the banquet was ...... His Royal Highness the King of Light saved me three times. The girl's eyes were still so bright and clear, and her eyebrows were slightly frowned, "I have never known His Highness in my life, why did Your Highness save me?"

"Because I like you. Yelan looked up at her, his expression was serious, and there was a hint of softness in his tone, not like he was joking, and he was not someone who liked to joke. "I've liked you since I was very young, and I swear to let you marry me. ”

Lie Beiyao was stunned by Yelan's sudden words, and couldn't close his mouth for a long time. King Guang has always been called King Leng, and he is very cold to others, and he has never said such a thing, but just now...... He even said he liked himself.

"We've seen each other since we were very young, but you only remember Yeshu, but you forgot me. Yelan slowly got up, put on his boots, and walked slowly towards her, "That little boy in ragged clothes is me. ”

"It's you ......" Lie Beiyao fell into a deep memory. She remembered that snowy night, when she had seen a little boy curled up in the corner of the palace shivering, not much older than her. He was in rags, his face was blue and purple, at that time she thought that the little eunuch who had just entered the palace was bullied, so she walked over and took off a silk handkerchief to bandage him, and told him to go back to his place earlier, if someone bullied him, he would come to her, the little boy looked at her muleng, did not say a word, but his eyes kept looking at her, she still remembered that the little boy's gaze was so clear and pure......

"I didn't like you because I liked you that day, or rather...... That's just one of the reasons. Yelan explained simply, "I don't want you to marry Yeshu, like many people. But they were just worried that Ye Shu would win the crown prince because of this, and I was ...... I just want you to belong to me. ”

Lie Beiyao looked at him without saying a word, for a long time, as if he didn't know what to say, before he silently spoke, "There is another reason?"

"I want to ...... next time we meet. I'll tell you again. ”

After Yelan finished speaking, the two were silent with each other. After a while, Yelan suddenly asked a question, "You...... Do you like Nightsoo?"

Lie Beiyao raised his head and looked at him, and the two looked at each other. Lie Beiyao's voice was very soft, so light that it could not be heard by a third person, "When I first saw Yeshu when I was a child, I only thought he was very special, but the word like is very unfamiliar to me, and there has not been a man who has made me feel tempted since I was a child." came to Jiuchen and married Yeshu, but he married someone who he didn't hate. ”

"Perhaps, I will be the man who will make you tempted. Yelan's voice was not loud, but it was very determined, and there was confidence in her eyes that she had never felt before.

Lie Beiyao was silent, and all of a sudden, the two seemed to have returned to their childhood......

The first time the three of them met was in the sixth year of Emperor Zhaoning and the tenth year of Emperor Zhaolie of Northern Xuan. It was a winter, Emperor Zhaoning of Jiuchen ascended the throne for six years, the country was decided, and the emperor's throne was also secured, so Emperor Zhaoning sent an envoy to Beixuan to sign a friendship agreement, and personally went to Beijing, the capital of Beixuan, to meet Emperor Zhaolie Mingyuan of Beixuan. At that time, Lie Mingyuan was already forty years old, had been on the throne for ten years, and his position was stable, so Emperor Zhaoning would go to Beixuan in person, hoping to form an alliance with Beixuan and stabilize Jiuchen's position in the Kyushu mainland.

At that time, Lie Beiyao was six years old, Yelan was eight years old, Ye Shu was twelve years old, and Lie Yu, the second prince who was the crown prince of Beixuan at the time, was also Lie Beiyao's own brother at the age of fourteen.

At that time, Lie Yu was the crown prince of Beixuan, and Ye Shu was the eldest son of Emperor Zhaoning of Jiuchen, and the two met and talked in the morning hall of the Beixuan Palace. The young Lie Beiyao liked to watch the excitement, so he insisted on taking his brother Lie Yu with him, so he met the twelve-year-old Ye Shu there.

Ye Shu is dignified, has a good appearance, and is a decent gentleman at first glance. This brother is very good to him, and he is very affectionate, he comes and goes, and after getting along for a long time, Lie Beiyao likes Yeshu, but this liking is just recognition, not a good feeling. Ye Shu likes Lie Beiyao, who is six years younger than him, and this liking represents love, so Ye Shu was very happy when he was married. It may seem like the best of both worlds.

Emperor Zhaoning's envoy to Beixuan brought two princes, one was the eldest prince Yeshu, and the other was the fourth prince Yelan. And Yelan and Lie Beiyao's acquaintance was on a snowy night.

I won't talk about the specific things, but since that night, Lie Beiyao has forgotten about this matter, and only Yelan has always kept this matter in his heart.

"So...... Why did you sit in the corner in such a mess that night, was someone bullying you?" Lie Beiyao asked tentatively.

At this time, the voice of the jailer came from the prison, "Your Royal Highness, the time is almost up, please hurry." ”

Lie Beiyao hurriedly stopped talking, frowned slightly, and asked with a somewhat serious expression, "What do you need me to do?"

"Not necessarily. Yelan shook her head, "I can handle this matter myself, and I will be able to get out of here in a few days." ”

Looking at Yelan's serious eyes, it didn't look like he was deceiving her. Lie Beiyao breathed a sigh of relief and put her mind at ease, she said to Yelan with a serious expression, "Cherish." ”

Yelan nodded, and also said to her, "Cherish." ”

Lie Beiyao glanced at Yelan one last time, stopped for a moment, turned around and put on his hat, and left the prison.

Yelan looked at her departing figure, her eyes showed a thousand emotions, as if she had a thousand words, but she couldn't say it at this time.

......

"Mingxu, the prince asked us not to interfere, but if the prince has been locked in prison and we have not moved, I think my heart is uneasy. Huangfu said to Ming Xu worriedly.

Ming Xu frowned, "Yinzhujun Zhu Keran has already returned to the house, why don't you ask Yinzhujun?"

"When will Yinzhu Jun return to the house?" said Huangfu in surprise.

"The day Yelan was arrested. Ming Xu replied, "It seems that Yelan is not worried at all about being caught. ”

"Since Yin Zhujun has no waves, then this matter may not be big. Huangfu Xun breathed a sigh of relief, "His Royal Highness Yefan is also very anxious in the mansion, and he has already made several excerpts to Emperor Zhaoning. ”

"Yelan is resourceful and will be fine. Ming Xu was relieved, "The emperor gave the saying that 'because the Liu family was destroyed, the queen was sad, and he released Ye Ji as appropriate, so that he could make meritorious contributions.'" However, he said that Yelan's interrogation was ineffective, and the submission submitted was extremely absurd, and it was suspected of slandering his brother'. I think it's Emperor Zhaoning's own explanation that is so ridiculous that it can't convince the public. ”

"Be cautious. Huangfu Xun nervously gestured to him, "There are His Majesty's eyes and ears in the house, and it has reached the ears of Emperor Zhaoning, and that is His Highness's responsibility." ”

Ming Xu closed his mouth and sighed softly, "The royal family fights, Your Majesty is so suspicious and suspicious today, and it is not good for several princes." ”

"The saint intends to support King Gong, and I am afraid that an edict will come out in a short time. The emperor asked.
