Ji Bangyue looked at Bai Hanyan's little face, full of sorrow, and Li Tong was also indescribably sad and sad, he sighed lowly, bitterness spread from the root of his tongue to the corner of his lips, he hooked his lips and said: "What is so good about Duan Changge, it is worthy of your trust?" ”

Bai Hanyan withdrew his gaze from him, took all his looks, lowered his eyebrows and said lightly: "Brother Ji, did you come here late at night to tell me this?" ”

Ji Bangyue looked at her cold look, smiled lightly, with some self-deprecation, sighed, he seemed to think of her, and said anxiously: "Yan'er, I will put Chang Fengxuan and Lu Qi in prison." ”

Perhaps, this matter will interest her, Ji Bangyue thought.

"Last night, in the face of Liu Yan's accusation, Chang Fengxuan said that Lu Qi suffered from the wind and cold, and he couldn't assassinate Liu Yan and that person, so I called the doctor to diagnose Lu Qi's pulse, but the doctor came up with the result that she did have a wind cold."

Bai Hanyan's brows only frowned slightly when he heard this, and there were no waves on his calm face. Ji Bangyue's eyes were twisted with a trace of pain, and he hid it for a moment, and continued to talk about the case, as if there was nothing to say between them except love, and he didn't want to do that.

"It's just that Lu Qi's little trick can hide it from the doctor, but it can't hide it from me, on Lu Qi's neck and shoulder points, I found that I actually pierced an inch long silver needle, blocking all the meridians from the Shaoyang acupoint on the soles of the feet to the top of the head, and the resulting instant cold and heat disease is used to confuse the truth, the woman called Lu Qi is scheming, and she must not be underestimated, but I am afraid that her identity may not be true."

After a pause, Ji Bangyue saw that her expression was not turbulent, and continued: "Liu Yan's testimony and the accusations made by the man, I am not afraid that Chang Fengxuan will not admit the crime, so he will dig out all the secrets hidden by Chang Mansion in one go." ”

Bai Hanyan's eyes were fixed on one place, but it was so empty and desolate that it seemed like nothing, like a pool of stagnant water, and there was no trace of waves, after a long time, she came back to her senses and said, "Brother Ji, don't tell me these things,...... I'm not interested. ”

Ji Bangyue was really annoyed by her dead look, jumped in front of her in two steps, raised her hand to pinch her shoulder, gritted her teeth and said: "Bai Hanyan, look at what you have become now, you won't be able to live without Duan Changge, do you know that Duan Changge killed Jiang Wuji, this is a capital crime!" ”

Bai Hanyan suddenly broke free from his restraints, and his eyes were like cold snow staring at Ji Bangyue and said, "He did it for me!" Jiang Wuji wants to arrest me and put me in prison, Changge is to protect me, there is no one in this world like him, who will spare his life for me! ”

Ji Bangyue was stunned and muttered, "Yan'er, I can ...... too"

Bai Hanyan's beautiful eyes were confused, her eyes were hazy with tears, and she took two steps back crying: "Brother Ji, but the person I love is him." ”

Ji Bangyue's heart was violently colic, he suddenly stepped forward and pulled her arm into his arms, Bai Hanyan waved his arms desperately and struggled, Ji Bangyue refused to let go, he restrained her, and breathed heavily on her neck: "Yan'er, you don't understand, the situation in this capital is treacherous, you ...... has always been a thorn in the side of others! ”

Bai Hanyan was stunned, his stiff body in his arms, no longer struggling and slowly looking up at him, his eyes twisted in disbelief: "Brother Ji, what did you say?" ”

Ji Bangyue sighed softly, suddenly raised her head and asked, "Yan'er, do you know why the emperor suddenly wanted to kill you?" ”

Bai Hanyan shook her head with a dull look, she wanted to ask last night, but Duan Changge took it without saying a word, and didn't say a word, she also had a bad premonition in her heart, Bai Hanyan snorted her lips with difficulty and said, "Why, he clearly promised me in the imperial study before......"

Ji Bangyue stared at her, and sighed: "That's because you don't understand the sinister hearts of people in this world, your father's case of corruption and taxation in Baijing is a piece of the Ming Dynasty's reverse scales, who dares to mention it in the Manchu Dynasty, taxation is the foundation of the country, and all the people worship, the emperor initially mentioned it, but he just wanted to find the ten million taels of tax silver, so that he could not only give the people an explanation, but also cross his stigma in the annals of history, but now, the whole situation has changed, some people get money for that, and some people want to take the opportunity to cause trouble for the dynasty, There is an undercurrent whirlpool under the capital, all of a sudden, smoke, do you know why the emperor asked me to check Changde at this time? ”

Bai Hanyan was shocked by his words, she couldn't help but tremble, her pink lips trembled twice, she could only let him pinch her shoulder, listening to Ji Bangyue's question, she didn't dare to think about the depth, she could only shake her head.

Ji Bangyue's dark eyes were drowned in a pool of thick ink, and she wrenched a surging anger like a black cloud in the sky: "Because the saint thinks that Changde has a heart of disobedience and fornication with foreigners, he even uses the silver left by your father's white mirror as bait to provoke the greed of some greedy people in the capital, such as Wang Xin, so as to shake the country, and once this tax silver is found, it means that His Majesty is incompetent!" He actually had the blindness to favor a traitorous minister for several years, and the corruption of this tax was connived at by the emperor, and I am afraid that at that time, the saint would not be able to explain to Wan Ming. ”

"But my father is innocent!" Bai Hanyan couldn't help crying and shouted to him.

"Do you think there is a difference between a wronged loyal and a favored traitor to the reputation of the emperor?" Ji Bangyue opened his mouth faintly, he has been with the emperor for decades, and he can best guess his thoughts, from transferring the saint to the Changfu secret investigation, and then sending Jiang Wuji into the palace, he knew that the emperor's murderous intent had risen.

"You are still alive in this world, which means that the white mirror case will always exist, and these ill-intentioned people will always be ready to move. Only when you die will this matter be settled. Ji Bangyue's eyes were covered with gloom, and she only felt uncomfortable tightness in her heart, the emperor was ruthless, and he was decisive in killing, and if this decree continued, Bai Hanyan must die.

Bai Hanyan's body was soft, and she slowly fell to the ground from his arms, as if she had fallen into the abyss, floating dust into the sea, and there was no life, she choked back tears, no confusion and panic intertwined into the biggest nightmare, suddenly, Bai Hanyan seemed to think of something, her pupils shrank sharply, and she suddenly reached out and grabbed Ji Bangyue's arm, and begged incessantly: "Brother Ji, I beg you, take me into the palace, let me see the saint, I am willing to die, I am willing to die!" ”

Bai Hanyan grabbed Ji Bangyue's arm with tears streaming down his face, like a life-saving straw in the floating sea, Ji Bangyue closed his eyes, only felt that his heart seemed to be sour and bitter, that bit of bitterness soaked into his internal organs, he didn't want to taste such a complicated taste, he pushed Bai Hanyan's hand away, and said bitterly: "I know that you are for Duan Changge, even if you die now, it is impossible, if Duan Changge wants to protect your life this time, the only way is to rebel, but in this way, it is the biggest disaster in front of the Ming Dynasty, he wants to use this to blackmail the saint, even vaguely told His Majesty who is his biggest hidden danger now! ”

Ji Bangyue's words sounded like a thunderbolt above her head on a sunny day, she only felt that her eyes were blank, her eyes were dark, and she fell straight back, and she heard Ji Bangyue continue: "How do you think I know where you are hiding?" With Duan Changge's thoughtfulness, he will definitely send secret guards to surround this mountain, and protect you thoroughly, how could I break in so easily? ”

Bai Hanyan only felt that the blood in his heart was surging in one place, and the only mystery in his heart collapsed: "Yes, he told you." ”

"Not bad! Tonight, he is exchanging his life for your life, he has a heavy army in his hands, the emperor must be jealous, His Majesty has to promise him to let you go, Duan Changge has no ambition, and he can't bear to lose his life, the goal is to naturally bow down to the saint, but how can the emperor allow him, tonight he Duan Changge has no way out! Ji Bangyue stabbed a knife in Bai Hanyan's heart again, so painful that she fell to the ground, hunched her waist and cried, tears poured out, Ji Bangyue raised her hand in pain and pulled her up, and held her shoulder tightly, and said: "The reason why I told you the truth of the matter is that I want you to die to him, you and Duan Changge have no fate in this life!" ”

"No, no, I won't let him die, I won't let her die......" Bai Hanyan raised a pair of teary eyes and muttered in a low voice, suddenly she was like crazy, biting on Ji Bangyue's arm, caught off guard, he was slightly in pain, slightly let go, Bai Hanyan picked a loophole, pulled out the tiger head knife on his waist, and wiped it to his neck, this knife she used all her strength, the blade cut deeply into the flesh, and immediately cut her throat, and the gurgling blood leaked out, but she still didn't die in the end, Ji Bangyue suddenly raised the blade, blocked her knife momentum with flesh and blood, and the blood of the two people flowed on the blade and dissolved in one place.

"Ji Bangyue, if I want to die, do you think you can stop me!" Bai Hanyan's eyes were cold, staring at him coldly, Ji Bangyue looked at her indifferently, and said calmly: "Of course, I said that I would protect you thoroughly." ”

Bai Hanyan chuckled lightly when he heard this, his face was full of sarcasm, and said, "The thoughtfulness in your mouth is to imprison me." ”

Ji Bangyue's chest rose and fell violently, he pulled out the knife in her hand and threw it on the ground casually, with a bang, cutting off her death, he stepped forward and reached out to cover the wound on Bai Hanyan's neck, and his anger rushed up from the dantian, gritting his teeth and saying: "But at least, I can protect your life!" ”

"Life?" Bai Hanyan seemed to sneer, lowered her eyebrows and slowly looked at the pale green jade bracelet on her wrist, and let the tears in her eyes soak her clothes with the red blood on her neck: "Without him, what do I want it to do with this life?" ”

Ji Bangyue stiffened, his black eyes shot grief, he couldn't speak for a long time, just looked at her, there was a little redness in his eagle eyes, lined with reddish circles, and inexplicable sadness flowed from his eyes: "Yan'er, forget him." ”

After that, as soon as he raised his hand and made a knife with his palm, he knocked on her neck, Bai Hanyan's consciousness gradually dissipated, and before she fell, she knew that this life would never be difficult again.

Ji Bangyue hugged Bai Hanyan's slowly falling body in his arms, raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face little by little, his eyes were full of pain, he leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Yan'er, for you, I, Ji Bangyue, can also give up this life, but in the end, there is no ......self in your heart after all."
