" Little Yi, I didn't tell you at that time because you said you hated battle formations. I'm a general, and war is indispensable to me. I just wanted to give you a good impression, I…"
"Don't quibble anymore. I saw you and Miss Chen together. You like her. Why didn't you say so earlier? I'll give you freedom. I'll give you freedom.”
" Little Yi, it's not what you think. Let me explain, Little Yi…"
"There's no need to explain. Where did you go the night before? You clearly came out of Chen Fuxin's room in the morning, but I still foolishly waited for you to see the lanterns. How ridiculous.”
"Impossible, I've never been to her room. Little Yi, how did you know? Did you misunderstand me?”
Bai Yi took out a piece of bloody white cloth and threw it to Ling Han." Is it so difficult for you to admit something? The evidence is all here, why are you still unwilling to admit it? I'm so disappointed in you."
Bai Yi closed the door.
"Xiao Yi, open the door, open the door. Listen to me explain. It's not like that. Wait a minute. I'll go find Chen Fuxin and ask her about the reason.”
After saying that, she hurriedly ran out." Chen Fuxin, Chen Fuxin, come out."”Ling Yuandong roared.
A beautiful woman slowly walked out of the house. She had a pair of peach blossom eyes and a small cherry mouth. Her pink dress accentuated her fair skin. At first glance, she looked stunning.
"Great General, why do you have the time to come over? Let me make you a cup of tea?”
He grabbed her hand and asked," No need. What did you say to Bai Yi? You gave this to Bai Yi, right? Why did you do this?”
Looking at the bloody white cloth that Ling Yuhan took out, Chen Fuxin said with a guilty conscience," I really don't know what the general said. I've never seen the thing in the general's hand."”
This answer made Ling Han furious. He grabbed her hand harder and said," You said you've never seen this thing before, but Xiao Yi told me that you gave it to him. What's going on? Tell me."”
Because of the pain in her wrist, Chen Fuxin groaned," It wasn't me, it wasn't me. I didn't give Bai Yi anything. No."”
"You still won't tell me? I treated you well before because I saw that you were kind and gentle. It seems that I was wrong about you. I didn't expect you to be such a scheming woman. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have kept you by my side.”
Hearing this, Chen Fuxin panicked. He wanted more than this result." General, don't, don't chase me away. I want to stay by your side."”
"Then tell me honestly why you gave this to Bai Yi and why you lied to him.”
"General, this is all for you. You know that I like you, but why don't you look at me? You spend all your time with Bai Yi, laughing, dancing, and talking about poetry, but you never look at me, not even once. I'm jealous of Bai Yi. Why can you treat him like this? The way you look at him is so gentle. He's a man, so why should he have your love? I can't accept this, so I carefully arranged everything for Bai Yi to jump in. I even specially gave him this white cloth and asked him to take my pulse. I didn't expect that fool to really believe all of this. I thought that he would leave like this. I didn't expect that he would look for you and tell you these things.”
Ling Yu clenched his fists tightly." Watch this woman. Don't let her go anywhere."”
With that, she rushed back to Bai Yi's room as fast as she could. She pushed Bai Yi's door open, but there was no one in the room. There was only a piece of white paper on the table. From now on, stay away from the bitter cold land and don't look for foreigners.
"Xiao Yi, are you blaming me? You said that my place is a cold and bitter place and even told me not to look for you. How cruel are you? You didn't even give me a chance to explain.”
Beside the lotus pond, Ling Yuandong felt his heart ache from the memories. It was as if he was suffocating. He pulled out his sword and began to dance around the pond. Wherever the sword aura swept past, the leaves would fall. Bai Yi, who was not far away, smiled desolately and turned to leave.
"You're here but you still refuse to see me?”
The person who was leaving froze. Ling Yuandong chased after him and hugged Bai Yi with both hands. Just as he was about to break free, Ling Yuandong's soft voice came from behind him." Don't reject me. Please, just let me hug you for a while. Just a little while will do."”
The body in his arms was stiff and even trembling." Little Yi, why didn't you listen to my explanation back then? I kept looking for you, but you wanted to avoid me, so how could I get any news of you?"”
"It's all in the past. Why bother?”
Ling Yuhan turned to Bai Yi and said," Xiao Yi, the person I've always loved is you. It's never changed. I know it's my fault. I made you feel insecure, so I gave others an opportunity to ruin our relationship. However, everything Chen Fuxin said was fake. I didn't do anything. Believe me."”
"I know about this. I met Chen Fuxin half a year ago. She was living in a brothel and told me that everything was arranged by herself.”
"That means you've forgiven me. It's not good for us to go back to the past.”
"Why don't you understand? I know everything, but why didn't I go look for you? That's because I no longer love you. There's no greater sorrow than a dead heart. From that moment on, I gave up. We shouldn't have been together in the first place, and there were too many obstacles. Moreover, you're a king and general of the Tianqi Kingdom. We can't go back. Give up,"
She pushed Ling Yuandong away and walked away anxiously. Ling Yuandong was left standing by the pool in a daze.
" Give up. I've already fallen in love with you. How can I give up? How can I give up…"
Bai Yi, who had returned to his room, stood by the window and looked at Ling Han, who was standing by the pool. He felt extremely sad when he saw how pained Ling Han was.
" Protect yourself from the cold. Ever since I found out that everything was Chen Fuxin's doing, I've forgiven you. I wanted to go find you, but I couldn't harm you. I could only watch over you silently. When I knew that you were coming to Hangu Pass, I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I secretly followed you. You're a general of the Tianqi Kingdom and are respected by tens of thousands of people. Being with you will only make others look down on you. You should have a beautiful woman to accompany you. I just want to see you happy."”
Early the next morning, the enemy nation sent people to pick up the injured soldiers and return home. The matter at Hangu Pass was considered to have been successfully completed. They called for Deputy General Cheng Kai and handed him the document in their arms.
"Deputy General Cheng, take this document back and give it to the Emperor. The army will follow you back to Jingdou. I still have things to deal with here, so I will temporarily hand the army over to you.”
"I will not disappoint you, General."
Looking at Bai Yi who was approaching, Ling Yuandong quickly walked forward and said," Little Yi, my third brother has suffered internal injuries. I would like to invite you to come with me to treat him. His internal injuries are quite serious, and the imperial physicians are unable to completely cure him.”
"What internal injuries? The imperial physicians are helpless.”
"You and I will know when we go and take a look. Hurry up and pack your luggage. We will leave immediately.”
"Alright, you go pack up too. We'll gather here in fifteen minutes.”
The two horses left Hangu Pass one after another and headed in the direction of Qushui Town.
Ling Yuxuan and Ni Shang had already arrived at Qushui Town. The investigation had already begun. A black-clothed masked man landed lightly on the roof of the magistrate's residence. He avoided the guards and came to the study. There was a conversation coming from inside.
"Lord Liu, this matter has failed. The higher-ups have already sent people down to investigate. You'd better destroy everything that shouldn't be left behind. Otherwise, even the master won't be able to protect you.”
"Don't worry. When have I ever made a mistake in doing things? What explanation does Master have this time?”
"A prince has come to the capital. Just in case, the master has sent you a group of death warriors. If he finds out anything, kill him.”
"Isn't it a bit too much to kill a prince?”
"If you don't kill him, you will die."
The man in black gently jumped onto the roof and opened a tile. It was Lord Liu and a man wearing a mask who were talking inside. Lord Liu seemed to be very afraid of this person and looked very careful. Then, he turned the bookshelf in the study to reveal a secret room. When the man wearing a mask walked into the secret room, Lord Liu's expression immediately became very disdainful. He casually said," If it weren't for the fact that you still have value, I would have already killed you. Why would you be so arrogant here?"”
The eyes of the man in black on the roof darkened when he heard this. He flipped over and jumped out of the magistrate's residence. He took off his night-traveling clothes. Wasn't it Ling Yuxuan? He threw away his night clothes and swaggered back to the inn.
Ni Shang, who had been waiting anxiously at the inn, saw Ling Yuxuan return and walked up anxiously to ask about him.
"Let's talk in the room."
After returning to the room, he closed the door and windows and pulled Ni Shang to sit down." This matter is a little tricky. We have many enemies. They want to kill me to silence me. It seems that this county magistrate has a big secret. First, we have to figure out how many enemies there are. After all, we are all in the dark now. It will be difficult to investigate. Moreover, your injuries have not recovered. We need to plan well and wait and see."”However, he was thinking about the secret chamber. When would he have the chance to sneak into the secret chamber?
He brought Ni Shang to a bamboo forest. Chou Kun and the others were already waiting there. When they saw Ling Yu Xuan come over, they called out," Young Master, you have some leads on the matter we are investigating. This county magistrate, Lord Liu, seems to have a close relationship with the Jingdou Prime Minister. Previously, our brother kidnapped the messenger on the road and wrote down a copy of the letter the county magistrate sent to the Prime Minister, Lord Su Yun.”He looked at the letter in his hand and put it away.
"Inform Qiu Su and the Eighteen Cavalry to come over. The situation is a little tricky and we don't have enough manpower.”
