On this night, Chen Yicong and Bai Ling still went out for a walk together after dinner, which seemed to have become a new habit.

The snowflakes fell on the heads of the two, and Chen Yicong suddenly thought of the saying "Gongbai Shou".

His heart was surging for a moment, and he looked at Bai Ling beside him—the girl had half-lowered eyes and a lonely expression.

Chen Yicong's words that were almost said were suppressed again.

Sometimes, it is much easier to peel off the cocoon after a thread.

is like Chen Yicong now, he can almost imagine that if he and Bai Ling say something "co-confessed" now, she will probably smile and nod her head, say "yes", and maybe snuggle up slowly.

He let out an unnoticeable sigh, and only the frosty mist drifted through the air.

That's certainly good...... Although, it won't be from her heart.

As soon as he thought of this, he held Bai Ling's hand unconsciously and forced.

“…… Hurt! ”

Bai Ling gasped, Chen Yicong came back to his senses and hurriedly let go of Bai Ling.

"Bai Ling......" Chen Yicong called in a low voice.

Bai Ling looked up.

Looking at each other, Chen Yicong looked at his long-awaited sweetheart in front of him, and his mood slowly calmed down.

"Even now...... Chen Yicong said softly, "I think it's good, it's already good." ”

Bai Ling frowned, "What's good?" Now like this...... How? ”

Chen Yicong stretched out his hand and gently dusted off some of the snow on Bai Ling's hood, but did not answer.

Some kind of tacit understanding made him understand that Bai Ling should be able to understand.

He doesn't need to say it explicitly.

But whatever Bai Ling's purpose was to bend to it—to save her father and brother's life? So that one day I can run away again? Or did he really suddenly figure out everything and was willing to stay in the palace with him for a long time......

It doesn't matter.

As long as Bai Ling is willing to be by his side like this, then the rest of the compromises can be left to him.

Whether it's sincere or not, he doesn't care.

Chen Yicong smiled.

As soon as this thought came to him, he suddenly felt a huge burden in his heart, and the old saying always said to take a step back and open the sky...... That's true.

For the first time in his life, he was glad to be in his place.

“…… I don't want more. He lowered his head and whispered in Bai Ling's ear, "I promise you. ”

Bai Ling was stunned for a moment.

Chen Yicong's words set off a storm in her heart almost instantly.

This is...... Is it recognized?

When was it......

Could it be that these days, she thought she was hiding it seamlessly, but it turned out to be...... Is Chen Yicong pushing a boat down the river?

…… So what is the patience of these days?

Bai Ling's whole body trembled a little irrepressibly.

"Let's go back." Chen Yicong grabbed Bai Ling's waist, "It's too cold here." ”

Back in the courtyard, Bai Ling barely maintained his spirits and washed as usual.

Chen Yicong waited in the room, and after Bai Ling lay down, he went to the table and blew out the lights in the room.

In the dark, Chen Yicong sat on Bai Ling's bedside again and quietly accompanied her to sleep tonight, but tonight, the two did not hold hands again.

"You go back." Bai Ling said softly, "Don't guard me anymore. ”

Chen Yicong didn't speak, just shook his head in the dark.

"I've been alone in the palace for the past few days, isn't it boring?" Chen Yicong asked.

Bai Ling was silent for a moment, "...... Is the emperor willing to let me out of the palace? ”

"Not yet." Chen Yicong said softly, "But in a few days, I can ask Yikang to come and see you, and let her come and talk to you." ”

The two in the darkness fell silent again.

Maybe that's fine.

Chen Yicong thought that there were some things that might be said as well.

……

A few days later, Yikang arrived as scheduled, looking very haggard and red-eyed at the first sight of Bai Ling.

"I knew you were still alive!" She grabbed Bai Ling's hand tightly, "I knew it! ”

Bai Ling didn't understand.

Yikang hurriedly wiped away his tears, and looked at Bai Ling in front of him with tears and laughter, "I have told Bai Yi many times, but he doesn't believe it-"

"Wait," Bailling interrupted Yikang, "what do you mean by 'I'm alive'?" ”

"They found a corpse in Jian'an Lake, Bai Yi went to recognize it, and said it was you ......"

Yikang's voice trembled and he told Bai Ling everything that had happened outside in the past few days, one by one.

Zheng Mi requisitioned the land of Donglin Temple to hold a huge funeral for Bai Ling, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is full of mountains. Many people came to the funeral, many of whom were people who had been arrested and put into the camp camp. And some of Boling's old friends......

Hearing this, Bai Ling suddenly understood why Chen Yicong's performance was so abnormal a few days ago.

And why did he suddenly say that night that he wanted Yikang to come to visit him - Chen Yicong didn't even have the courage to throw the truth directly in his face, and he had to rely on Yikang to convey it.

"Where did the corpse come from?" "Where did they find a corpse about my size?" ”

Yikang was stunned for a moment - she didn't think about this question.

But Bai Ling didn't ask any further.

Bai Ling lowered his head, and a small bloody shadow appeared in front of him.

"How could I die," Bai Ling muttered in a low voice, "Where is Chen Yicong willing to risk me......"

Yikang lowered his head and covered his face, "That's what I said to Bai Yi, but he just didn't believe it!" ”

"Bai Yi, where are you now?"

"I've been imprisoned again......" Yikang said with difficulty, "The emperor said that since he was given a chance, he refused to leave, so he would be locked up first, and wait for the next year to ......go with the prisoners exiled from the Spring Prison."

Bai Ling was surprised for a moment, and then lowered his eyes again.

And that's to be expected.

Yikang continued, "I made up my mind not to see him again...... But then I heard the news that you had thrown yourself into the lake, and I decided to see you off.

"When I saw him in the mourning hall, I had a feeling." Yikang looked at Bai Ling, "Do you know what it is?" ”

Bai Ling looked up.

Yikang's eyes were sad.

"Bai Yi is ...... now It's as if the whole person has collapsed.

"Don't care about anything, don't be afraid of anything...... In front of so many Jinyi guards, he said all the words that could punish the nine clans...... That's why he was arrested again. ”

Yikang lowered his head, his hands sunk deep in his hair.

"I can't get into prison," her voice choked again, "but if he is sent away like this, I'...... I ...... so much."

"When was the Spring Prisoner exiled?"

"It should be next month." Yikang said softly, "After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will set off for the north." ”

Bai Ling looked at Yikang in front of him, and his heart was suddenly a little moved.

Despite all this chatter of Yikang, almost a single word is about Boling...... But she didn't say a word, it was for herself.

It's all Bai Yi.

“…… The county lord," Bai Ling said softly, "do me a favor." ”
