On a drunken summer night, some people are drunk and dream of death, some people sleep alone, and some people are still wandering between life and death.

Linye, the imperial city.

The palace, which never extinguished the candle all night, is exceptionally quiet today.

Ye Chang'an, who was dressed in an imperial robe, kept pacing in the main hall, looking at the inner hall from time to time. And Xue Mo, who was dressed in white, always stood at the gate of the inner hall, coldly unable to see any expression.

I don't know how long it took, Ye Chang'an's always strategizing face finally flashed a ruthless color, he walked quickly to the door of the inner hall, and was about to rush in.

"Your Majesty, no."

Xue Mo raised his arms and blocked Ye Chang'an's way.

"Xue Mo! Get out of the way! ”

Ye Chang'an's eyes suddenly chilled when he looked at Xue Mo: "Do you want to betray me?" ”

"Your Majesty!"

Xue Mo clenched the sword in his hand: "Your Majesty, with the princess here, Your Royal Highness will be fine!" Please also ask Your Majesty to think about the country! ”

Jiangshan Sheji!

Ye Changan's gaze froze for a moment-

"Ye Chang'an, do you want Jiangshan, or do you want me?"

That year, that day, he chose Jiangshan, and she did not hesitate to stab the long sword into his chest.

For more than ten years, the wound on his body has long healed, but the wound in his heart does not want to heal.

She never refused to back down, and he never knew how to accommodate.

She was born in Daqian, he is in Linye, are they chess opponents, or is it a match made in heaven?

"Ahem!"

A crisp coughing sound suddenly came from the main hall, Xue Mo's face changed slightly, and Ye Changan finally came back to his senses at this time and rushed into the inner hall.

In the inner hall, the mist was hazy, and on the golden bed, Princess Mingyu, dressed in red, sat there with a pale face, she kept coughing, and every time she coughed, the corners of her mouth continued to ooze red blood.

"Yu Qian!"

Ye Changan stepped forward quickly and anxiously took Qin Yuqian into his arms.

She was as bright as she was eighteen years ago, but her eyes were dimming a little.

"Respect, respect."

Qin Yuqian faintly called her son's name, and Xue Mo on the side immediately came to the other side of the bed, and at this moment Ren Jingzhi was still lying there, and the whole person was in a coma.

The great storm in the Baqi Desert destroyed everything, and although Ren Jingzhi escaped death under the cover of 3,000 soldiers and horses, he relapsed on the way back, and the line between life and death - the residual poison that had been deposited in his body for many years finally broke out.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, the pulse of the Fourth Highness has stabilized."

Xue Mo gave Ren Jingzhi a call and said in a pleasant tone.

Hearing Xue Mo's words, Ye Chang'an looked overjoyed, and Qin Yuqian in his arms also reluctantly showed a relieved smile.

It's okay, it's okay.

Everything she did was worth it.

Perhaps letting go of the biggest obsession in her heart, Qin Yuqian only felt that her blood was surging-

"Poof!"

She suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and the bright red color stained Ye Chang'an's dragon robe red.

"Yu Qian! Yu Qian! ”

Ye Changan's voice carried a rare panic: "Yu Qian, don't be afraid, I will send the imperial doctor." ”

"Don't."

Qin Yuqian gently grabbed Ye Chang'an's hand: "It's useless, Ye Chang'an, you should know it, it's useless." ”

Qin Yuqian looked at Ye Chang'an's face, and seemed to have returned to more than ten years ago.

When she first met more than ten years ago, she was arrogant and domineering, but he was just like a handsome scholar. At that time, everyone's eyes were on her, but his smile, his eyes always fell elsewhere......

Meet, get acquainted.

It was she who moved her heart first, and she was the first to break up.

It's a pity that life can't be repeated......

Qin Yuqian only felt that everything in front of her was a little blurry, today, she used all her internal strength and vitality in exchange for her son's life.

This is the only thing she can do for her as a mother in this life.

"Ye Chang'an, promise me."

Qin Yuqian's voice gradually weakened: "Okay, take good care of Jingzhi, I owe him, and so do you...... You're ...... too."

"Qin Yuqian!"

Ye Changan hugged the woman in his arms tightly, and his voice was as domineering as she remembered: "You are not allowed to die, I am not allowed to die of you!" ”

"Ye Chang'an, you...... If you can't restrain me, you won't be able to do it in this life. ”

Qin Yuqian heard Ye Chang'an's voice and smiled charmingly as usual: "I, Qin Yuqian, live only for myself in this life." This life is what I owe to my son, and our Qin family owes him. Today, I give it back to him. ”

"Qin Yuqian, are you crazy! You don't owe your son, you don't owe anyone! It's the Qin family who owes you! The Qin family owes you! ”

Ye Changan's eyes were slightly red, and there was a bit of resentment in his tone: "You have been burdened by the Qin family all your life!" Qin Yuqian, you have never lived for yourself! ”

Never lived for myself......

Perhaps.

Countless memory fragments flashed through Qin Yuqian's mind-

"Yu Qian, now only you can help the second brother~!"

"Yu Qian, I'm also your big brother! Why do you want to help deal with me? ”

Big brother, second brother.

In a blur, Qin Yuqian seemed to see a somewhat familiar and unfamiliar face. Big brother, is that you?

Do you still hate me?

Am I doing something wrong?

Everything in front of Qin Yuqian's eyes gradually turned into nothingness.

Back then, for the sake of her biological brother, she did everything to drive the eldest brother to a dead end.

Back then, in order to continue to assist Qin Zhantian and help him stabilize the dynasty, she gave up Ye Chang'an.

Ye Chang'an, do you know the way?

Actually, it's not your fault, it's not your choice.

From the very beginning, I chose the Qin family and abandoned you......

The Qin family.

Qin Yuqian's eyes were blurred, but there were all kinds of emotions in her heart......

"Yu Qian!"

In his ears, Ye Chang'an's heart-rending call seemed so far away and out of reach.

"Ye Chang'an."

Qin Yuqian used up her most powerful strength, and grabbed Ye Chang'an's dragon robe: "Don't ...... Don't let Qin Zhantian go, don't let him go. ”

Qin Yuqian's eyes flashed with the most crazy - Second brother, I have given up too many things in my life to help you achieve hegemony, and what do you repay me? What did you do to my son?

Brother and sister?

I'd rather than your sister.

"Yu Qian?"

Ye Changan hugged Qin Yuqian in his arms and nodded desperately: "I promise you, I will promise you whatever you say." Yu Qian, please don't die......"

You're dead, what should I do?

The beautiful woman in her arms gradually closed her eyes, and her hands were still clutching Ye Chang'an's dragon robe after reaching the top.

Are you unwilling? Still reluctant?

was as proud as Qin Yuqian, and until he died, he didn't say the words to Ye Changan that he had been waiting for for eighteen years.

"Yu Qian! Yu Qian! ”

In the splendid dormitory, Ye Chang'an's heartbroken voice kept echoing, and Xue Mo had been standing respectfully aside, watching Qin Yuqian die in Ye Chang'an's arms, Xue Mo endured the sadness in his heart, and slowly closed his eyes-

Your Royal Highness Princess, this may be the best destination for you in this life.

On the bed, Ren Jingzhi was still unconscious, but two lines of clear tears slowly flowed down his handsome face......

A generation of heavenly pride of the Daqian Empire fell silently in the imperial city of Linye.

No one knows that this is the fall of a generation of Tianjiao, and it is also the rise of a generation of heroes.

Daikan, Kyoto.

In Kyoto in July, the sun is blazing.

Since the housekeeper was destroyed, Mobei has been calm for a while, and in recent days, there have been rogues everywhere.

Ning Feiyuan had already received a holy decree to lead his troops to Mobei to clear out the thieves.

It is estimated that it will take a few more months, Mrs. Ning was busy sorting out her husband's bags, and Ning Yutong talked with her father for a long time in Ning Feiyuan's study the night before Ning Feiyuan's expedition.

Some decisions are long overdue.

After Ning Feiyuan set out on the expedition, the Ning Mansion seemed a lot deserted.

On a midsummer night, the evening breeze also carries the residual temperature of the day, and when the window is opened, the sound of frogs and insects is endless.

Ning Yutong approached the window lattice, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, in recent times, it is rare to have leisure, in addition to accompanying her mother every day, she is practicing martial arts and strengthening her body, and her life seems to have returned to the previous trajectory.

But can everything be the same as before?

"Yutong."

In the dark night, a black figure suddenly appeared in the small courtyard that was not very spacious.

Ning Yutong stood by the window and slowly opened her eyes, looking at the people in the courtyard very indifferently, she had long known that she would definitely come.

"His Royal Highness King Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Ning Yutong was the first to speak, smiling faintly at Qin Jinlin.

Under the moonlight, Qin Jinlin came slowly, he didn't seem to have the consciousness to break into the house at night at all, but walked leisurely like a master, and slowly pushed the door in.

Ning Yutong was still leaning against the window, admiring the night outside alone.

"Yutong."

Qin Jinlin walked behind Ning Yutong and stretched out his hands to hug her from behind.

The faint fragrance lingered, Ning Yutong lowered her head, and at a glance saw Qin Jinlin carrying the string of green sandalwood beads she gave on her wrist.

"This string of hand beads is the right size, I like it very much."

Qin Jinlin noticed Ning Yutong's gaze, he smiled slightly, and subconsciously raised his wrist.

"It's good if the prince likes it, princess, do you like it?"

Ning Yutong spoke again, her tone was still flat, she didn't spend a lot of money on this gift, it was just a heart.

This little heart is to thank him for saving him many times, and it is also her blessing to him and Bai Hanxue's newlywed, the most sincere blessing.

If in this life, he and Bai Hanxue can love each other well, and she can always stay out of it, then it will be the best result for everyone.

"You say, will she like it?"

Qin Jinlin suddenly grabbed Ning Yutong's wrist, and at the moment when Ning Yutong was stunned, Qin Jinlin had already put a string of green sandalwood hand beads on Ning Yutong's left wrist.

"Lord Wang?"

Ning Yutong looked at Qin Jinlin in surprise.

"You promised to marry this king, do you want to repent?"

Qin Jinlin smiled and shook Ning Yutong's wrist, the string of hand beads on her wrist turned out to be just the right size.

"The natural math I promised."

Ning Yutong didn't look at the green sandalwood beads on his wrist, but turned his head to look at Qin Jinlin behind him: "Marriage has always been the order of parents, and the matchmaker's words, if the prince is not in a hurry, you can wait for my father to return to the court from Mobei before coming to the door to propose." ”

Waiting for Ning Feiyuan to come back?

"In a few months, this king can afford to wait."

Qin Jinlin's hand landed on Ning Yutong's chin, and gently pulled her face, making her look at herself.

"Yutong, can this king stay with you tonight?"

Ning Yutong's gaze, which had always been as indifferent as water, fluctuated slightly.

"Not good."

She staggered his hand vigorously, but Qin Jinlin smiled indifferently, he liked to look at her at a loss, he didn't like her coldness and indifference.

The night outside the window was still just right, and Qin Jinlin hugged Ning Yutong again, quietly hugging her, the mood that had been desperately suppressed by him for the past few days finally slowly stabilized......
