Chapter 31 Let him go down to the west building with the bright moon
"Bai Yucheng, you lied to me again. You disguised yourself as Xie Changfeng and walked with us, you promised me to let Xi Jingchen go, but you still killed you. Is this a game fun? I originally thought that although you were in a deep city, you had never hurt innocent people, at least you had a good heart. Ji Jingchen saved your life, but you killed him. To you, he's just a human life, but to me, he's the only person I can trust. Why do you want to let anyone around me go? Is it true that the more pain I have, the happier you are? Then you just kill me. Ji Lianmei's hands moved away from his neck, and she grabbed his white shirt tightly, and she couldn't cry anymore
He said slowly: "It has nothing to do with you, I was born to be so ruthless and unrighteous, Ji Jingchen is very smart, kill him, and only then can you never suffer in the future." ”
"Oh, what a ridiculous reason. Don't use your Heavenly Evil Body as an excuse for your life. In the final analysis, everything is because of you, because you want to climb to the throne, because you want to get the supreme right, you want to be the lord of the world, you can do whatever it takes. Bai Yucheng, why are you so selfish. ”
"Come on, take it." Bai Yucheng gave an order, and Xiao Yige led the guards to surround Ji Lianmei from all sides, and several cold and shining blades were on her neck, shaking her so much that she couldn't open her eyes.
"Did you see that? You don't need me to do it, just a light word, I can let you die here, all because I am powerful. Only those who hold power in their hands are worthy to live proudly in this world of power, understand? ”
Bai Yucheng's fingers hooked Ji Lianmei's chin and said in her ear.
"Take it away." Xiao Yige said to the guards holding Ji Lianmei, and then, he turned his head and asked Bai Yucheng, "Your Highness, what ........is the corpse of the second prince of Wu?"
"Pick a clean place to bury it, he was a freedom-loving person, he didn't live comfortably in life, at least after death, let him live more comfortably." Bai Yucheng looked at the sky, as if he was missing someone.
"Your Highness, you could have not killed him."
Xiao Yige has been squatting in the grass to observe every move on this side.
Half a day ago, Ji Jingchen regained his senses, and he said to Bai Yucheng:
"Kill me, I know, this mental epilepsy is only going to get worse and worse."
"Life in the world, no matter how painful it is, it is good to live one more day, don't give up so easily." Bai Yucheng dissuaded him.
Ji Jingchen smiled dismally, punched Bai Yucheng in the chest, and said, "If these things hadn't happened, I think we might be able to become friends." I have killed countless enemies on the battlefield, and I don't know how many times I have run away from the ghost gate, so what is the fear of death. The only thing that scared me was hurting her........ I don't want her to see me like this. ”
Ji Jingchen took out the saber on Bai Yucheng's waist, pulled the sword out of its sheath, and Hao inserted it into his heart without hesitation.
"Bai Yucheng, you remember, this is what you owe me for killing my mother and pouring the country, so I can't continue to protect the person, you must protect her for me. Can't let her get hurt, can't let her cry, can't let her know what it's like to be heartbroken and die. Otherwise, otherwise..... In the next life, I will always pester you, never to death. ”
He smiled slightly, his breath getting weaker and weaker.
"Actually, you are a person who values love and righteousness, and I don't know why you have to hide your true nature like this. But I hope you can keep the people in front of you, don't be like me, and never lose your love........"
Xiao Yige knew that with Bai Yucheng's reflexes and medical skills, he could completely cure Ji Jingchen's knife wounds, but he didn't.
Bai Yucheng sighed lightly and said, "He has already been poisoned by Emperor Wu, even if I don't kill him today, he won't live long." Once this poison occurs, it will be devoured by thousands of insects, tortured by shock, and died. Rather than die like this, I should break it for him. ”
"I see. Then Your Highness, why don't you explain to Ji Lianmei, in this case, she may hate you a little less. ”
"Heh, Situ, you've been with me for so long, don't you know my personality?" Bai Yucheng smiled helplessly, "I don't want to owe Ji Jingchen." Besides, she already hates me now, so what does it matter if she hates me more or less? ”
Bai Yucheng doesn't like to explain, because if a person believes in you, he naturally doesn't need to explain; If he doesn't believe you, no matter how much you explain, he will still be suspicious. The so-called explanation is nothing more than leaving the truth to those who trust you and giving an excuse to lies. Other than that, there is no point.
"Okay, let's go back to Da Song."
"Yes, Your Highness, that Ji is merciful......."
Bai Yucheng thought about it for a while and said, "Put her in prison first, let her calm down." ”
Ji Lianmei, I'm sorry, I'll take care of you for the rest of your life.
"Yes."
Ten miles away, there is the girder. It's just that the person who accompanied him is no longer there, and the promises he once made have passed away like flowing water. The young man who is as comfortable as the wind is finally unrestrained and wanders the rivers and lakes.
Great Song Barracks.
"Your Highness, Princess Liu Guo hasn't eaten for two days, and if she continues like this, I'm afraid it will ........" The chief in charge of the prison came to Bai Yucheng's military tent and reported to Bai Yucheng tremblingly.
When Xiao Yige escorted Ji Lianmei to the prison that day, Bai Yucheng specially instructed: The cell that prepares Xiangyang can't be hungry and frozen, and if you lose a hair, you will be questioned.
Most of the people who will be locked up here are prisoners of war and deserters, and it is the first time he has seen that His Royal Highness will put people in a cage to be an uncle, which shows that this girl's status in his heart must not be low. Since Ji Lianmei was brought here by Bai Yucheng, she refused to eat, and she was dying of hunger, and she was about to be unable to hold on, so the prison warden had to report to Bai Yucheng in a panic.
"Won't she eat anything?" Bai Yucheng asked.
"Yes, yes."
Bai Yucheng frowned slightly, and his hand to pick up the pen and write also stopped. After a long time, he put on his white cloak and walked out.
"By the way, go to Sifang and call Yan Yuruo." Bai Yucheng suddenly stopped and ordered the chief.
It was late at night, and the silver glow of the moon shone through the window lintel and sprinkled on the girl's pale face. The originally round face was thin, there was no blood on the lips, the eyes were half-open and half-closed, as if they were asleep, and there was a slight cold sweat on their foreheads. The tulle-like garment was drenched with sweat, revealing a small half of the deep collarbone. Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were heavy, and she curled up helplessly in the corner of her cell.
I hadn't seen her for two days, and she had become so sick and weak. Bai Yucheng only felt a chill in his heart, and wanted to cry sadly.
"Open the cell door." Bai Yucheng instructed the jailer on the side.
The old wooden door creaked heavily. He carefully picked the girl up from the ground, pressed her cold face against his chest, and pressed his slender fingers up her cheek, watching her eyelashes flutter slightly.
"Don't pretend to be asleep, I know you're awake."
Ji Lianmei's eyes slowly opened, and her glass-like eyes lost their original luster, hollow like a bottomless mountain abyss.
"It's ironic, once upon a time, I was a princess on the high, and you were still a big fool who let the servants bully. And now, you are the future lord of a country, and I have become your prisoner, this reversal of identity is really ironic. Ji Lianmei stretched out her hand and gently grabbed the placket of Bai Yucheng's chest, her anger was like a gossamer, obviously she was already very prostration, and it was very difficult to even speak.
"Stop talking, eat something first, we'll talk about it later, okay?" Bai Yucheng put his lips to her ear and said softly.
The corners of Ji Lianmei's mouth tugged at a smile. "Bai Yucheng, I'm not hungry, now I live like a catkins, I have no fixed place, my heart has no home, I can't feel warmth, and I won't shed tears. Instead of being a living dead in a cage like this, let me die slowly like this. ”
Seeing her smiling so freely and going to her death safely, Bai Yucheng's face became more and more nervous.
"I heard Yin say before, you are not from this era, are you?"
Ji Lianmei seemed to be reminded by him, her eyes instantly brightened, and the hand that grabbed his shirt trembled slightly.
"You mean ......"
"Well, as long as you eat well and live well, I can let you go back." Bai Yucheng said with a smile.
"Do you really promise me? You won't go back? ”
Bai Yucheng stretched out his little finger and slowly hooked Ji Lianmei's fingers, his thumbs against each other.
"No regrets."
Ji Lianmei remembered that at the Lantern Festival a year ago, she said to Bai Yucheng:
"We pull the hook, and after the hook, you can't go back. It's a kind of testimony to commitment........"
It turns out that you remember. How nice it would be if we were the same as we were. It's a pity that I can't go back.....
"However, Ji Lianmei, listen well, if one day, you take the initiative to return to me, I will not let you go again." Bai Yucheng suddenly hooked her chin with his fingers and said.
"Don't worry, even if you drive me, I won't come back." Ji Lianmei's face finally regained some vitality.
"Princess, I brought you your favorite porridge, come and try it." Yuruo carried a vermilion food box and lightly buckled the wooden door of the cell.
Seeing that Yuruo was coming, Ji Lianmei pushed Bai Yucheng away with all her might, and Bai Yucheng also let go with interest, and coughed lightly: "Come in." ”
Yuruo suddenly threw herself into Ji Lianmei's arms, and said happily: "Princess, I haven't seen you for a long time, Yuruo misses you." ”
At this time, it is not appropriate to ask more, and the most important thing is to appease Ji Lianmei's emotions.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the cell was gradually harmonious, Bai Yucheng quietly withdrew, leaving the two sisters some time alone.
"Princess, you eat slowly, if it's not enough, I'll make it for you." Yuruo smiled and patted Ji Lianmei's shoulder.
I haven't eaten for two days, Ji Lianmei is already hungry, how can I have the energy to take care of any image.
