Chapter one hundred and seventy-ninth burning sacrifice (five)
Seeing Rong He's mood stable and without any reckless words, Bai Ling completely put down the stone in his heart.
He used tea instead of wine and toasted Rong He, "I wish everything goes well in the future. All the words in my heart are in the letter."
"Well, I hope everything will be well after you log into the Pure Land."
The two drank tea and smiled at each other.
Just like the first meeting in the palace when I was a child.
Rong He never thought that the smiling boy could assist him for the rest of his life, block his knife, bleed for him, and deal with him in the turmoil.
Bai Ling knew that the prince who had cared for a lot of things had always been open and clear in his heart, trying to be himself all the time. He also lived as Bai Ling had always longed for.
Bai Jue once inadvertently told the two that this world is like a hot hell, but there is a warm white moonlight in his heart.
For Bai Ling and Rong He, each other is the white moonlight after the dark clouds disperse.
...
Rong He smiled and sent Bai Ling away.
Bai Ling glanced at her eyes twice, as if she said again that this was the last time she met in her life.
The peach blossoms outside the hall were rustling, and he hid in it, and his back gradually disappeared.
Rong He stopped for a while, expressionless. Then he continued to go back to the hall to fiddle with the chessboard.
Gu Xi was about to take away the teacups of the two people, and Rong He stopped her and said, "Let's wait. Just leave it like this, don't move for the time being."
"Yes." Gu Xi glanced at Rong He, wondering what he was feeling, so he said, "It's a pity that the little marquis is about to stay away from the world at such a young age..."
Rong He held the chess piece with his fingers, and he said casually and confidently: "I won't let him die. He is the person most important to me. I want to save him."
Gu Xi suddenly became dumbfounded. When she saw that there was no one around, she reminded anxiously, "Your Highness, you cannot say this nonsense. This time, the sacrificial emperor attaches great importance to it, and you cannot make any mistakes."
Rong He looked up at her, "You and I have experienced humiliation than life and death. Should you understand me, right? Since you have experienced all the things that are more painful than life and death, you will never let go of those things that you already cherish."
Gu Xi's eyes trembled and he asked in a low voice, "What should the prince do?"
"I have prepared manpower. I am a person outside the palace and ambushed in the southeast corner of the sacrificial position, where I am backlit to facilitate my hands."
Gu Xi covered his mouth in surprise, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, if the matter is exposed, this will be a death sentence!"
Rong He smiled, "No, as long as I do it quickly, they will not find any evidence. I have found all the places to settle Bai Ling. It is in a village five miles outside Yan'an City, in a small house where a widower named Li was named Li. But don't tell General Wanqing about this."
Gu Xi squinted his eyes a little, "Why?"
"She is about to get married, and I'm afraid of implicating the Bai family."
"Okay, the prince...you have to be careful about everything."
Rong He nodded and ordered Gu Xi to go down and do things.
Gu Xi looked back at Rong He, but he was still fiddling with the chess game seriously, and it didn't look abnormal.
Rong He's eyes staring at the white and black chess game were also light and dark.
He smiled slightly, and the dark pupils reflected the game of chess surrounded by white pieces.
"Sooner or later... it will end."
...
At night, a crack was quietly opened to the back door of Jilu Palace.
The figure quietly slipped out and went to the back garden in the palace along the deserted path.
The moonlight split the dark clouds, and Gu Xi was standing next to the second prince Rong Jin.
The two of them found a very hidden corner, and even the light of the lantern was gone, and they whispered.
"Southeast corner?" Rong Jin looked up at Gu Xi's report and recalled, "Yes, the southeast corner of the sacrificial platform is indeed a place with backlight. Someone lurking there, whether it is an attack or retreat. What else did the prince say?"
"He also said that he had found a place to settle Bai Ling. In a village in Wuli outside Yan'an City, there was a man named Li who wanted to settle Bai Ling in his place for the time being. He should have inquired about it before."
"You did a good job." Rong Jin curled his lips and smiled evilly, with a proud look on his face, "Sure enough, it's still impossible for him to look at Bai Ling to die."
From the time when Bai Ling announced the early burning sacrifice, he was still wondering why the prince was calm all day long and his emotions did not fluctuate at all when he went to court, just as if Bai Ling was his irrelevant intention.
I thought I was holding on, but it turned out that I had already had a plan in my heart. This was even greater than the sin of begging for the emperor.
Gu Xi said: "Then you can tell the emperor about this information now, so that the prince will die."
"Now?" Rong Jin sneered and shook his head, "It's not said now. The prince is a timid and afraid of trouble. Even if he plans like this, it may change at that time. If the defense is very strict, he may not order to take action. Therefore, if he wants to arrest him, he must arrest the current situation and let him not argue in front of his father, so that he can't turn over."
"Why tell the Bai family about this and let them make trouble in their nests, can you also reap the benefits of the fisherman?"
Rong Jin tilted Gu Xi and pinched her jaw, "Don't think I don't know what you think, hum. Now tell the Bai family, that's just let the Bai family stop the prince. Can the prince still make mistakes?"
Gu Xi broke free from his hand hard, lowered his anger and felt unconcealed, "Maybe they will make mistakes together, so that they can get rid of the two obstacles of the Bai family and the Prince."
"Impossible. Bai Yansheng's heart is higher than the sky, and loyalty is particularly important. This is a double-edged sword. As long as I successfully ascend to the position of prince, the important piece of the Bai family will be used by me. Why should I get rid of them? Bai Ling's death will push the Bai family to the top of glory, and it will be me who will reap the benefits of the fisherman." Rong Jin thought proudly.
This is a great opportunity.
Gu Xi was a little confused, "You took over the Bai family? Didn't that mean you took over Gu Wanqing? Didn't you say you would help me get rid of Gu Wanqing?"
Rong Jin suddenly grabbed Gu Xi's neck and twisted it hard.
"Uh..." Gu Xi's feet were hanging in the air, struggling.
Rong Jin stared at her fiercely, "You woman don't want to teach me how to do things. You have to listen to me whoever I want to keep and get rid of who I want to get rid of. You should stay with the prince now, otherwise I will kill you in an instant! Including your stupid family members! As for Gu Wanqing, I will naturally get rid of her when the time is right! Do you want to say it?"
Gu Xi's suffocating fear made her nod quickly.
