The air in Zangetsu Palace was as cold as ever. In the empty hall, Bai Yan, who was sitting high on the throne and wearing a silver-white mask, seemed to be carelessly playing with Zangetsu, which was emitting azure light in his hand.
The extremely sharp sword shone with dazzling light under the moonlight. The slightly curved blade was stained with sporadic blood, and there was also the elegant fragrance belonging to a woman.
The handsome curved eyebrows were slightly raised, but they were hidden under the curved mask. The black and white peach blossom eyes were slightly narrowed. The white fingertips lightly crossed the tip of the knife, and bright red blood dropped drop by drop. However, that
The curvature of the thin lips under the mask is getting higher and higher.
It seems that it is the flesh and blood of that person.
Ji Yan behind him was still standing quietly as before, his stern face still expressionless. However, those eyes that kept flashing betrayed his heart.
The cold blade was put back into the scabbard, and Bai Yan's voice sounded particularly clear in the empty hall, even with a little echo. "Tell me, when did you start liking her?"
The blood drops were still falling. Bai Yan smiled slightly and reached out to touch his lips. The already alluring red lips looked even more charming, like a rose with thorns, so red that it hurts.
"My lord." Bai Yan's always calm face looked a little embarrassed after what he said. He just yelled softly and was blocked by Bai Yan with his hand.
"Do you remember the first words I told you back then?" There was a slight provocation at the end of the words, and no emotion or anger could be heard in the words. Ji Yan trembled and said in a deep voice: "Everything can be moved, only love.
cannot."
"Do you remember it very clearly?" He casually took the teacup on the table and took a sip as if out of habit, but what he poured into his mouth was only a large amount of air.
Taking a long breath, the silver mask was slowly peeled off by slender fingers, revealing the even more evil face inside: "I remember it too, and I remember it very clearly. I say it to myself several times almost every day."
"Pa." The water glass in his right hand fell to the ground, rolled down each stone step quickly, and finally broke into pieces. Bai Yan's voice was even more prominent in the crisp sound: "But, I just can't do it."
He stood up and patted the shoulder of the person behind him, "Since I can't stop my emotions, the only thing I can do now is not to keep this relationship going." There was an unexplainable look in his dark peach blossom eyes.
"Don't forget our mission."
Ji Yan turned pale and nodded.
Bai Yan returned to the previous position and picked up a water glass: "I heard that Hua Xuanji is pregnant recently?" The hand holding the glass tightened slightly, and there was a faint pain in his heart when he mentioned the name. However, he never showed it.
with table.
"Yes, and it has reached the ears of the emperor." Ji Yan quickly regained his calm expression, as if nothing happened just now. When Bai Yan didn't reply, he continued:
"It seems that the child in Hua Xuanji's belly cannot be saved."
Bai Yan still didn't speak, his slightly narrowed peach blossom eyes looked at Zangetsu in his hand for a moment, and an inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Combined with the blood stains on his fingertips, he looked particularly evil.
One is the emperor who has been concentrating his energy and forbearing for nearly twenty years, and the other is a woman who is destined to become a disaster in her life.
Yehua, I really want to see what your choice is.
Holding the fragment tightly in his hand, Bai Yan watched the bright red blood leave from the slender fingers, and Bai Yan's voice did not make any waves.
"Ji Yan, prepare the car. It seems that it's time for me to pay a proper visit to my 'father'."
"Yes." Ji Yan responded expressionlessly, and a black figure and a white figure immediately disappeared into the hall.
The moonlight shone through the gap in the unclosed door, and everything was peaceful and unreal. Only the sporadic blood stains in the broken teacup at the foot of the steps were shocking.
There were several thunders in the sky, and Hua Xuanji's body trembled slightly uneasily. She held a small paper bag in her hand, which Wanyao left behind when she left.
It is said that if taken, it can cause a false abortion and the child can be delivered smoothly.
However, when he asked her why she was helping him like this, all he got was mocking laughter.
"You know it's okay if you don't get rewarded for your merits. When I ask for you, I just hope you won't refuse then."
No matter how Hua Xuanji thought, what Wanyao asked her to do would not be too simple, not to mention that it might be Wanyao's plan. She stood up and walked to the candlelight, holding the paper package with two fingers, but just as the paper package was about to
While it was burning, Hua Xuanji still withdrew her hand.
My little hand caressed my still flat belly somewhat feebly, and then looked at the paper bag in my hand.
After much deliberation, Wanyao must not be such a stupid person to use such a stupid method to deal with herself, and Yehua's eyebrows were furrowed when she revealed that she was pregnant.
Out of a woman's intuition, Hua Xuanji felt that this matter must not be that simple. Hua Xuanji sighed, reached out and hid the paper bag in the mezzanine under the dressing mirror.
Qingge brought the dinner back at this time and said with some joy: "I saw a carriage when I passed by the door just now. I think the prince must be back, so I asked the cook to add some dishes. I guess the prince is coming soon. Miss, you
Are you hungry? Should you wait for the prince, or should you eat something first?"
The function of Qingge's chat box was turned on again, and Hua Xuanji smiled helplessly. Since he had come back, this was his dormitory, and there was no way he would not come back here before he came back, so she asked Qingge to put the food away, "
Wait for him for a while."
However, thunder in the sky rang several times in succession, and most of the red candles on the table were burned out, but Yehua still did not come back.
Originally, Wanyao had said some unhelpful words to her during the day, and Yehua's words last night that he would handle it well, caused the uneasiness and worry in Hua Xuanji's heart to well up, and pregnant women are more likely to
Sensitive, Hua Xuanji could no longer sit still, so she asked Qingge to find a coat and prepare to go to the lobby to see if Yehua was there.
The wind on the autumn night was really biting, and when I saw Hua Xuanji's lips turned white from the cold, Qing Ge reminded me with some unbearableness: "Miss, you're freezing, why don't we go back."
Hua Xuanji tightened the collar of her coat and smiled lightly. "We've already come out, so it won't take long."
The moonlight shone in the quiet courtyard, and the blue water looked a bit lonely without the water lilies. There was another dull thunder in the sky.
The shock made Hua Xuanji's heart tremble several times. She looked at the gathering dark clouds above her head and turned back to hold Qing Ge's hand: "It's going to rain, let's take a quick two steps."
There were thunders in the sky, and the air became moist in an instant. Qingge was afraid of getting Hua Xuanji wet, so she held her hand and ran quickly.
