"Is Mr. Bai still in the palace?" she asked.

Xuan Ming shook his head, "No, General, after you leave the sacrificial ceremony, Marquis Bai also said he was uncomfortable and went back to the house to rest. It seems that Marquis was also hit by unknown blows today."

Rest? Gu Wanqing pinched her chin and thought about it, and there was something strange.

If she had this idea, would Mr. Bai be...

Gu Wanqing grabbed Xuan Ming's shoulder and instructed anxiously: "Xuan Ming, go and see if there is any movement in the Hou Mansion."

"for example?……"

Gu Wanqing narrowed her eyes and then, "For example, see if Marquis Bai is still in the Bai Mansion."

...

The thunderstorm has not stopped, making the night particularly long.

Rong He kept his eyes guarding Bai Ling until the imperial physician finished all the medicine. Bai Ling was already in a state of confusion and had no other time to wake up except to cry out.

Doctor Guo fed Bai Ling the fifth dose of painkiller and added a pair of refreshing pills.

"Your Highness, Bai Ling's way is not a solution after all. It's wet here and it's not good for healing the wound."

"It's okay, when he gets better, I will arrange for him to go somewhere else."

Doctor Guo shook his head repeatedly, "The room next to me has decocted medicine."

Rong He was still guarding, wiping Bai Ling's sweat and wiping away the blood and dirt on his face.

After a while, Bai Ling's eyelids trembled before slowly opening.

Rong He said in surprise: "Bai Ling, are you a little more awake?"

"Prince?...Where am I? Why are you next to me?" Bai Ling's voice was hoarse.

He looked around with a blurry gaze. Apart from Rong He's face, his blood-filled eyes couldn't see clearly.

Could it be the Huangquan Road? If it were the Huangquan Road, why would the prince be by his side?

Bai Ling became a little nervous and suddenly moved his body, with strange and severe pain.

He tried hard to stretch his eyes and found that his body was covered with bandages, and his increasingly clear vision also brought more and more intense pain.

"You...you saved me?" Bai Ling realized this terrible fact.

Seeing that he was awake, Rong He held his hand with relief, "Yes, I saved you, have you remembered?"

Bai Ling raised his hand, but he didn't have much intuition at all.

"roll……"

"What did you say?"

"Get out!"

Bai Ling reached out to push Rong He, and with force, he rolled from the bed to the ground. The wound that had been bandaged had cracked and snowed, dyed the bandage red and his clothes.

The famous Rong He lifted him to the bed and said in a panic: "Bai Ling! The Imperial Doctor said you can't move around now!"

Bai Ling trembled all over, both in pain and anger, "Rong He... Why did you save me because of...?"

"Of course, it's because I can't watch you die. No matter who you are for, I can't let you ignore it."

"Why are you still so naive? Why... don't you understand what I, Bai Ling, should end today?"

There was a smell of blood in his throat, unable to accept the fact that he was still alive.

There was lightning and thunder outside, and living at this time was even more terrifying than going to hell.

Rong He pressed Bai Ling's shoulder and said, "When you get healed from your injury, you beat me and scold me, and cut me into pieces. As long as you live well, you will go to sacrifice to heaven and die at the age of 22, that's all bullshit!"

"Do you know... where did you place me?... where would you place the Bai family?! And your position as crown prince... are you going to destroy everything?..."

“Those are not important compared to you.”

How can dust be compared with the sun, moon and sky?

"I made me a sinner who betrayed Nan Yan... Rong He... Rong He, kill me before I hate you, and take it back to Yan Ancheng to report it!"

Bai Ling still struggled to get out of bed, but this time, Rong He pressed him on the bed, his eyes firmly as iron as ice.

"Bai Ling, I can follow you in everything, but this time I can't. I can also abandon everything, but I will never leave you!"

I will never leave you behind.

Bai Ling once said this to Rong He.

At this moment, Bai Ling knew what Rong He meant. The more he understood Rong He's position, the more Bai Ling felt guilty.

"You know clearly... I, Bai Ling, regard loyalty as more important than everything!"

"Is it more important than me?" Rong He asked softly as if begging.

“…”

Bai Ling is stuck in his throat. Naturally, there is nothing more important to him in this world than the prince. Because of this, he must die and cannot be implicated.

Rong He smiled and said firmly: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you hate me in the future. The pain will always pass, but when a person dies, nothing will be gone. I don't want you to live for only twenty-two years."

"We have never been mortals... What we undertake is never simple, even life and death..."

"Bai Ling, believe me once. I will arrange everything and will not implicate the Bai family. When I ascend the throne and become emperor, I will be able to keep you safely by your side. You can still meet your family. Just think that Bai Ling has died before and starts a new life again. OK? You can also marry and have children and live a normal life. We are still confidants. We will never be separated for the rest of our lives and will never be slaughtered."

Rong He's sincere and hot gaze was condensed in Bai Ling's eyes.

With his soft voice, he refused to let go of Bai Ling's hand.

This made Bai Ling feel panicked and ridiculous at this moment - he actually wanted to compromise.

But it was only for a moment.

There was a sound of fighting outside the door.

The two guards around Rong He immediately became alert and protected him in front of the bed, "Prince, be careful!"

A figure kicked open the door and walked in.

The rain flowed along his footsteps, and the heavy sword hung around his waist, which did not affect his steady pace.

The visitor took off his hat, which shocked Rong He and Bai Ling.

"Marty Bai?"

"Father……"

Rong He looked out the room and the open door was raining heavily. Outside the room was a guard who was fainting everywhere.

Bai Yansheng threw away his hat and threatened the two guards who were blocking the bed with his eyes, "Do you still want to stop me?"

The guard was a little scared, after all, the Marquis was in front of him.

Rong He really wanted to applaud him, "It's worthy of being a man who has been through the battlefield for a long time. It should be that only Marquis Bai in the court can find me here, right?"

He realized that Marquis Bai said that he was not feeling well was an excuse, but in fact he had already secretly come out to search for Rong He's traces.

"The southeast direction is your cover, I will send someone to search in the opposite direction. Prince, you are so brave."

"Marty Bai, now is not the time to discuss my right or wrong. Bai Ling needs to rest. If Marty Bai allows him to let Bai Ling return to the Bai Mansion when he is injured better, then he—"
