Bai Ling couldn't help but squint his eyes.

If someone is really behind the scenes and lured her here tonight, then what kind of calculation is this person having?

The other party unveiled Lin Jieyu's life experience to himself a confusing gap, is he looking forward to her looking for the fishy smell to continue biting, so as to kill people with a knife to get rid of this woman, or do you expect her to sigh and show mercy to this woman's subordinates?

Or do you ask for nothing but let yourself see the absurdity of this earthly world?

Bai Ling didn't know if the woman in Chuxiu Palace realized it, but overnight, the fire in Donglin Temple had changed her from a sword warrior to a fish, and people could tolerate a woman from a humble background to gain power by chance, but they would never tolerate a potential force with an unknown background living in the palace.

Bai Ling was suddenly very curious, what would Emperor Jianxi's attitude towards Lin Jieyu be now?

When he saw that this woman's seemingly vivid face was just a chic mask, would he still love and spoil her as always, and indulge her to the end?

The two entered the palace from the Shenwu Gate and returned the horses to the guards on duty.

Bai Ling walked while reaching out and stretching her arm, she looked up at the moon, and suddenly realized that tomorrow was the eighth day of the new year, and it was time to go to Cining Palace to see the Queen Mother.

She raised her head and told Fourteen that she didn't have to show up in Chengqian Palace tomorrow morning, just wait for her to take care of the things at hand and go out.

Wei Fourteen nodded in response.

"When did fourteen enter the palace?" Bai Ling asked suddenly.

"It says five years old." Wei Fourteen said softly.

"How many years was Jianxi at that time?"

"Twenty-seven years." He replied with his eyes still staring ahead, and there was no fluctuation in his voice.

"Is that fourteen this year," Bai Ling calculated, "twenty-three?" ”

"Perhaps, I don't know my true birth date very well, the age of five years old was estimated by the eunuch at that time." Wei Shishi looked at Bai Ling, "Why are you asking this?" ”

"Just to figure out how long you've been here." Bai Ling replied softly, "Later, when you feel that life is like a year, you can think about how much it is a comfort that you have spent eighteen years here. ”

Wei Shixi laughed softly, and said after a long time, "But I don't live like a year." ”

Bai Ling was a little surprised, "Have you never felt this way before?" ”

Wei Shishi said softly, "There are many rules in the palace, but it's better here than outside." ”

As if to emphasize, he added, "Much better." ”

Bai Ling looked at Wei Shixi's face, he said this very sincerely, without the slightest pretentiousness.

In fact, this is really Wei Shishi's heartfelt words, the queen mother and the master Wei Ying are the first two lights in his life, and they taught themselves how to live as a person in this world.

From the white boy who everyone regarded as an alien in the mountains and wilderness, to the secret guard who everyone in this palace respected and feared, he didn't know whether to say that God was too cruel to him or blue-eyed, but he at least understood one thing like today, maintaining a little free life under the rules is already a happiness that only a few people have.

Four years ago, he took over the task of protecting Bai Ling, and it was the first time that he had left Cining Palace for a long time and set his sights on people outside the palace.

He watched the life of this girl and her family, sometimes he found it interesting, and sometimes he felt incomprehensible. To a certain extent, this fills his imagination of worldly life, a life that he has never experienced, trivial, complicated, full of trivial things and inexplicable disputes.

Some moments were cozy, of course, but more often they were troublesome.

In the onlookers, Wei 14 confirmed that the kind of life ideals of father, son, filial piety, fame and fortune pursued by people in this secular society did not attract him, if nothing else, he would try his best to control his life to continue the trajectory of his master Wei Ying, polish his skills all his life, and finally die in an unexpected mission, walking quietly, except for leaving a few clothes, a few swords, and no worries about the coming and going of the stripes.

Seeing Bai Ling's confused expression, Wei Shishi said in a low voice, "My situation is simpler than yours, I only need to solve the problem, and I don't need to think about who I am solving the problem for." ”

Bai Ling's pace slowed down a little, "Don't you really have to think about who you're solving it for?" ”

"Hmm." Wei 14 replied, "Because the answer to this one has already been available." As long as the Queen Mother is still in this world, my mission will continue for another day. I have inherited the mantle of my master, and I will continue his unfinished business. ”

Bai Ling looked at Wei Fourteen, probably because during this time, everything was clashes intensively, so she felt that she knew more about Fourteen in this month than in the past four years combined.

It is true that she does make herself much more tired than Wei Fourteen, but she still feels that Fourteen's situation is very dangerous.

There is nothing wrong with a tool man polishing his sharpness to the extreme, but the problem is that completely handing himself over as a sword to others is too much of a test of one's luck.

In the first half of his life, he met the Queen Mother, Wei Ying, and himself, so what if he met Lin Jieyu and Mrs. Qu in the second half of his life?

"If I ask you to kill someone now, will you do the same?" Bai Ling asked.

In the moonlight, Wei XIV took off his hood, and the faint silver-gray color reflected in his eyes, "You just need to tell me the name of that person." ”

Bai Ling shook his head, "That's just an analogy, let me put it another way, if tomorrow the Queen Mother assigns you to another person's side, and that person asks you to kill me, what will you do?" ”

Wei XIV's movements flashed with a momentary lag.

"Of course, if there is a day," Bai Ling smiled, and quickly continued, "I will try to put myself in a position where I am so feared that I must spare my life, so that you don't feel too embarrassed, but this is indeed a possible dilemma, right?" ”

Wei XIV did not answer.

The two continued to walk forward, Bai Ling looked up at the moon, and muttered to himself as if no one was around, "People sometimes overestimate their will, and I believe that some things cannot be done with a ruthless mind. Sometimes if you really put your heart into it, the spine of that world will be broken. However, if one day, we really come to that dilemma, it is probably a kind of unbreakable and unstanding."

"Boling."

Wei XIV interrupted Bai Ling's words, and he suddenly stopped and stood there.

"Huh?" Bai Ling turned her head, now Wei Shixi's expression was unprecedentedly serious, she was slightly stunned, and quickly put away the casual expression on her face, "What's wrong?" ”

Wei Shishi looked at the girl in front of him, unable to describe his mood for a while. He had to admit that he was taken aback by Bai Ling's unfounded assumption.

If someone really makes up their minds to destroy Bai Ling's mouth, instead of finding a way to face him head-on, it is better to transfer him directly through the emperor, or even as Bai Ling said, directly order him to swing a knife at him.

At that time, did he really have the option of refusal?

"What's wrong with you?" Bai Ling approached with some concern.

Wei Shixi took a deep breath, he shook his head, and said softly, "You are indeed difficult for me, Bai Ling. ”。
