In the winter of Taiye Pond, the lake has long been covered with a thick layer of ice, and the snow has fallen rapidly in recent days, and the snow on the upper area is deep, no one has stepped on it, and it is a large piece of white.

The pavilion in the center of the lake and the plank road that spread along the shore are carved and painted, but they are also buried by snow, and the flowers and trees everywhere are hung with thick snow, and only the candles on the side of the road are still printed with a dim light.

Shen Yan stood by the window of the attic floor and looked at the lights in the distance, as if she could hear the noisy singing and dancing in the hall in the extreme silence, the cold air hit, she gathered the cloak on her body.

There was a sound of footsteps in the attic, she turned to look, and saw Wang Huan walking up the stairs in a lilac robe, wearing a jade pendant on his waist, a jade face, and a slightly drunk face, he was drunk.

On weekdays, his smile is faint, but after drinking, he is more charming, and his fingertips are a little red.

"Xiaoxing, you stay outside, don't let anyone in."

Xiao Xing got Shen Yan's order, glanced at the two of them with a smile, and then turned around and left, guarding under the attic.

Shen Yan specially wore a triple robe embroidered with moon white embroidered laurel today, with his hair combed in a high bun, bangs wiped between his forehead, and a red plum blossom was decorated, with fine gold dust in the middle, and his soft face under the candlelight was more luxurious.

Wang Huanzhi looked at her, and in a trance, he seemed to see Kanghe, and she was also so fascinating at the banquet that year.

The difference is that Kang He is not as comfortable as she is in his eyes.

"You've lost weight."

Wang Huanzhi couldn't help but sigh when he looked at her somewhat sharp chin, stepped forward and wrapped Shen Yan in his arms, and said with some distress.

After a long absence, hearing his words, Shen Yan's nose was sour, and he leaned greedily into his arms.

In his arms was his usual Du Ruo fragrance.

"I eat eight bowls of rice a day, how can I lose weight."

She nestled pitifully in his arms, and said sullenly, Wang Huanzhi smiled helplessly, patted her on the head, and said, "It seems that you are doing well." ”

"Are you going well in Shacheng?"

Shen Yan put away his playfulness, got out of his arms, raised his eyes and asked seriously.

"Well, it's all good."

Wang Huanzhi said softly. He didn't want to say much about the patrol of Shacheng, and she shouldn't know about the darkness of these courts.

From the beginning of the other garden, Wang Huanzhi showed her the newspapers of various places, and Shen Yan's sensitivity to the court situation was taught by him.

He deliberately covered it up, and Shen Yan naturally knew about it, so he didn't ask more.

"Then, Zhong Cui, what clues have you found?"

He shook his head, looked at the light outside the window with his eyes staggered, and said lightly: "Zhong Cui doesn't know much, she admits that she sent someone to detain Kanghe's belongings, but she doesn't admit that she was poisoned." ”

Shen Yan still remembered that when he first entered the palace, the Qingsi Hall was dilapidated and shabby, and it didn't look like the place where the pampered emperor of the previous dynasty lived.

Zhong Cui's words are lightly said, but it is a long misfortune to fall on Kang and Diji.

"You said that the poison in her is a slow poison that needs to be taken for a long time to be poisoned, except for the people in the Shanggong Bureau, only the maids around her have a chance."

Shen Yan pondered.

"Yes."

Every time he talked about Kang and Emperor Ji, Wang Huanzhi was very quiet, and for him, the death of his beloved was a pain that he could not forget.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the sealing is imminent, and it will be the selection of the horses soon, I don't want to continue to stay in the palace, can you help me get out of the palace?"

Shen Yan took a deep breath and said the most important thing about his night.

Kang and Emperor Ji are pitiful, but now that the marriage is imminent, she can't afford to sacrifice herself.

She's not that noble.

Wang Huanzhi was a little surprised, and when he raised his eyes, he saw her stubborn expression, and the corners of her mouth on her delicate little face rose slightly, as if Shen Yan, who was covered with thorns at the beginning, had returned, or she had never changed, and being well-behaved and docile was just her disguise.

"Why?"

He asked lightly, but the moment he asked, he suddenly figured out everything.

"Because I can't marry instead of Kang and Diji, I can't, and I don't want to. What the emperor needs is not me, but the identity of the emperor, and it's okay to marry someone else, isn't it? ”

Shen Yan smiled abruptly, turned around and walked to the window, the cold wind penetrated through the window lattice, and her consciousness was extremely clear.

Wang Huanzhi chuckled when he heard her reason.

"If you marry me, won't you?"

Shen Yan was startled, turned around suddenly, and saw that his eyes were gentle and delicate, the beautiful night outside the window, the candle fire and snow night, not as affectionate as him.

Her intellect and feelings were torn in her head.

"You know it's impossible. The Emperor has raised your power so high that you have no way out. The Emperor's marriage is a great opportunity for the Emperor and will not be wasted on you. And you forgot, I'm not Shen Nian, I'm Shen Yan. ”

Shen Yan said these words calmly, with a faint smile in his eyes, and there was sadness that could not be concealed.

Wang Huanzhi's gaze lost its brilliance in an instant, there was no trace of light in his deep eyes, he stretched out his hand to hold Shen Yan and paused it in the air, and then drooped down.

"I'm sorry I didn't find the killer of the emperor. But it's like this, and I really can't stay here anymore. ”

Shen Yan said in a low voice, turning around and not daring to look at Wang Huanzhi's expression.

She's betting, betting on his attitude toward her.

At the same time, she was afraid.

Now it is equivalent to putting her and Kang and Emperor Ji at the same time at both ends of the scale, and who is light and who is important is all between Wang Huan's thoughts.

"You are Kang He Diji, Daming Palace is your home, where do you want to go?"

After a long time, there was a louder sound, Wang Huanzhi suddenly hid his face and laughed, let out a long breath, looked at Shen Yan's back very calmly, and said.

The answer is clear.

Shen Yan couldn't bear to close his eyes, sneered, and muttered, "Even if I am forced to become a puppet and marry a stranger, don't you care?" ”

She spoke calmly at this time, as if she was talking about someone else's business.

"Kanghe, you're drunk."

Wang Huanzhi walked to Shen Yan's side and lowered his head to look at her, this face was exactly the same as Kang He, but the soul inside was not the same.

He and her face were only a layer of paper away at this time, and between the two breaths, there was no deliberate ambiguity between them.

Hearing Wang Huanzhi's words, Shen Yan finally woke up from a big dream.

"No, I'm now, very conscious."

His face was pressed against his face, and a cold aroma of wine on the tip of his nose was mixed with Du Ruoxiang, and many pictures flashed in Shen Yan's mind, from the first time the two met to now, there were laughter and disputes, and more of them worked together.

Shen Yan thought about it a lot, his mind was surging, and now he became extremely calm.

Wang Huanzhi had already given all his true heart to Shen Nian, the Kang He Emperor who died early!

She's just a pawn.

The encounter between them was originally a conspiracy, if it weren't for this face similar to that of Emperor Ji, how could Wang Huanzhi find her.
