His very soft voice landed on the tip of Xie Linlang's heart like a feather, and then set off circles of ripples on the heart lake, layer upon layer...

Just when Xie Linlang was about to say something to comfort him, he heard the basin hit the ground with a "bang"! At the same time, Xiaoxi's changed voice came—

"What are you doing?!"

Xie Linlang was startled, and in the next second Xiaoxi rushed over, quickly pulled away the long gown that was put aside, and covered Xie Linlang with her head in her pocket!

"Sir, don't forget, you are a man!!"

Qin Jue was a little confused when he was pushed away by Xiaoxi, and even more confused when he heard what Xiaoxi said. What does "he's a man" mean?

Fortunately, when he interrupted, Xie Linlang also woke up.

Really! Although she hasn't developed much yet, she is a woman anyway, how can she be so careless?

So she said to Xiaoxi apologetically, "There is nothing between us, Qin Jue just came to care about my injury..."

Xiaoxi protected Xie Linlang behind her like a calf, and looked at Qin Jue with eyes like guarding against a wolf!

"Should concern be expressed in the shower?"

This... doesn't seem to be necessary...

Qin Jue frowned, endured the strange feeling, and whispered, "Since you are fine, I'm leaving."

As he spoke, he walked to the door, and when he remembered something, he still whispered something.

"When it comes to poison techniques, I understand better. If you feel uncomfortable, don't be brave."

Xie Linlang nodded embarrassingly, and only after Qin Jue went out did she heave a long sigh of relief, but Xiaoxi couldn't restrain herself from whispering in her ear.

"Young master, I didn't say you, how can a boy be so careless to protect himself?"

Xie Linlang was very sorry, "I know... I will be careful in the future, but Qin Jue is still young and doesn't understand anything..."

Xiaoxi immediately looked at her with eyes that hated iron and steel, "...you will die when he understands everything!"

On the other side, Qin Jue walked out of the yard alone. It seemed that he wanted to go out and blow some air to wake himself up.

Why did he say that to Xie Linlang just now? This feeling is very strange, so strange that it seems to be a feeling that he only had in his previous life.

The night was bleak, and the place where they settled was very remote, and there were no people in sight.

Looking into the distance, Qin Jue can vaguely see the undulating black shadow on the horizon, that is Qilian Mountain, as long as you pass over there, Xiangcheng will be very close...

Suddenly, he stopped.

There was a faint smell of rust, and a man in black appeared silently behind Qin Jue.

But soon, he knelt down on one knee, his solid and stalwart body was as steady as a mountain!

He only heard him whisper, "Your Highness, you are finally here!"

——Everyone didn't understand why Qin Jue didn't escape from the country, but turned back at a critical moment.

Doesn't he know that if he returns to Qin State, he will be close to death?

No, he knew it, he knew that since the emperor had taken action to destroy the Xia family, it would be impossible for him to survive, but he still came back, and returned to hell with the determination to die and the overwhelming hatred!

Dong Qi remembered a few months ago, when they were on the border, they could leave the Qin Kingdom as long as they crossed the Mu Chang River. Unexpectedly, the queen committed suicide suddenly, disrupting all their deployments.

That night, His Highness the Crown Prince sat by the Muchang River for a whole night holding the Queen's body, without moving. In the river, life and death seem to be within a single thought.

But in the end he didn't jump down, and he didn't cry. When the sky began to turn white, he stood up and gave a few orders.

First, all the remaining forces should stop following him and move to Xiangcheng.

Second, contact the rest of the capital, he wants to return to Beijing.

At that time, everyone thought he was crazy. Wouldn't it be a dead end to go back at this time?

But he was neither crazy nor dead. After he went back with the queen's body alone, he presented a "blood book left by the queen before her death", and then he confessed all the crimes in front of all civil and military officials. She is willing to accept any punishment, so that her biological mother can be buried in the imperial mausoleum!

No matter how iron-blooded people are, perhaps they will soften their hearts at this moment... Sure enough, the emperor who was originally determined to kill him only sentenced him to exile in the end.

But escaping from the emperor is only the first step on the thorny road.

He contacted the Anbu in the palace to speak, and set the place of exile in Xiangcheng.

Then he dismissed all the forces in Beijing, and only regarded himself as a non-threatening deposed prince.

How far is it from the palace to Xiangcheng? It may be like the path of seeking scriptures in ninety-nine and eighty-one kalpas in fairy tales, but he has to walk this path by himself.

Can't expose the hidden forces, can't reveal that his original goal is Xiangcheng, can't die on the road...

So those of them who came to Xiangcheng a long time ago are actually not sure whether the prince can complete his deployment and meet them alive...

Before he returned to Beijing, the leader of the dark guard asked him.

"It's fine for my subordinates to go to Xiangcheng to wait for His Highness, but what if... His Highness didn't come?" What if he died on the way?

How did Qin Jue answer back then? He smiled and said in a calm, gentle voice.

"If I didn't come, that's what fate deserves, then you should leave. It's not worth it for a person who can't even save his life."

That was the last time he showed a gentle smile.

After that, they came to Xiangcheng and waited every day. Although it was only a few months, it passed an incomparably long time.

Finally, they have waited, Your Highness, he is here!

Qin Jue turned around slowly. He was different at this time. In front of Xie Linlang, he was surly, gloomy, moody, and occasionally childish.

But in front of his former subordinates, his eyes were so silent that there was no light, because when he saw them, he knew that he was here for revenge.

"Why are you here?" He tilted his head slightly, "It's still a few days away from Xiangcheng."

Although the members of the escort team were all dead, Qin Jue was not sure that the emperor had not sent others to monitor him. In order not to fail, they should not have met now.

Dong Qi suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said in a low voice, "There are all our people around, nothing will happen, Your Highness..." He looked at Qin Jue's thinner body than a few months ago, and he choked up unconsciously.

"You have suffered along the way!"

suffer? Qin Jue was a little stunned.

The first month was quite bitter, and then... Xie Linlang came. Although he had to avoid all kinds of pursuits when he was with her, for some reason, Qin Jue didn't feel bitter when he thought about it. Even because of this In the second half of the buffer, he remembered that when he was tortured in various ways before, he didn't have the urge to slaughter everything, it was all over.
