Xue Yao seemed to have a plan in his chest, and with a sword in his hand, he glanced sideways at the prince,

"Your Highness, take a look, can Ah San beside you still fight? But Xue Yao can. If you want to fight, within ten steps, Xue Yao will definitely take your head."

"you dare,"

The prince took a step back in fright. He grew up so big and had never been threatened like this before. How could he be bullied like this.Immediately, he untied the long sword at his waist, and really wanted to come forward.

Xue Yao was faster than him, so he wanted to move. Xue Yao's sword point was already pointing at the prince's face, and he looked at it with half a smile.

"If you don't believe me, try it."

Ah San fought with Xue Yao, so he naturally knew the strength of this man, and he had already injured his shoulder, if the other party came to help again, it would be difficult for us to take advantage, so he whispered a few words in the prince's ear.

The prince frowned, and snorted coldly, seemingly unwillingly, "I don't believe you can turn the other way."

Then he shook his hands and left, Ah San was behind to protect him, and before leaving, he took a look at Xue Yao, and it was hard for people to miss seeing such a master.

Seeing them leaving, Xue Yao breathed a sigh of relief. He said that he had no help, it was just a bluff.

Seeing his expression like this, Jing Yi naturally understood the meaning.

The mourning hall returned to deathly silence, but the two men had nothing to say.

Xue Yao twirled three sticks of incense, bowed in front of Concubine Chen Gui's coffin, and then sat quietly beside Jing Yi.Seeing that Jing Yi didn't speak, he took out the letter from his bosom and put it on the fire.

Jing Yi, "..."

After a long time, I just said, "Xi Nian, you shouldn't have come back."

Xue Yao, "Then where should I go?"

"You should," Jing Yi paused, looking at the open door,

"You should stay there with your beloved girl Zhirou, and live your next life happily. In that package, I have prepared enough silver taels for you to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing. You don't have to worry about Hu Zi, either. I will arrange for him to come and find you in two days."

"..." It was obviously so sad, but Xue Yao really smiled when he heard these words.This person obviously had such a happy expression when he saw him, but he wanted to say something like this, and he didn't know whose heart he was trying to pierce.

"Your Highness, I don't have a beloved girl, and that's not the life I want."

Jing Yi glanced back at him, there was some emotion in his eyes, which Xue Yao hadn't understood before, but now, he seemed to understand a little bit.

"Then you shouldn't come back. You see, I can't even protect myself now, let alone protect others."

Xue Yao, "It's okay, I'll protect you."

Jing Yi's face was a little moved, but he turned cold again, "Heh, what are you going to do to protect me? You can't protect me."

Also, what does a little guard do to protect others.

Xue Yao threw some more paper money into the brazier, "Damn it, do you want it?"

"..."

"I will live with you when you are born, and I will die with you when you die. As long as you don't think it is cheap, it will guard you forever."

"..."

"How about it, do you want it?"

"I..." Jing Yi suddenly felt that his eyes were a little warm, and it was obviously not touching, why would it be so touching, but, "I don't want it."

Rather than dying together, I still hope you can live well.

Being rejected again, Xue Yao choked in his chest, unable to spit it out or take it back, it was very uncomfortable.The old man who couldn't talk about love in eight lifetimes, although his words were not pleasant, he said everything he should say, but he was rejected. He felt a deep sense of frustration.

Xue Yao was very angry, and gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't want it, you have to. When you got me back, you couldn't get rid of me."

Hearing what he said, Jing Yi was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled inexplicably, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, very cute, and suddenly her face darkened again.

"If it was at that time, it would be great if you were here, maybe my mother and concubine would not die."

"My fault, I shouldn't have left."

Seeing Jing Yi's red eyes, Xue Yao felt uncomfortable. No matter how bad Concubine Chen Gui was, she was still Jing Yi's concubine mother.

Jing Yi took a deep look at him, "Don't you hate my concubine mother? She always wanted to kill you."

Xue Yao smiled, "Aren't I still standing here properly?"

Even though the woman lying in the coffin is wrong in every way, it is the greatest thing that she brought you into this world.

Having said that, Xue Yao was also very suspicious of Concubine Chen's death, "How did Concubine Chen die?"

Jing Yi's eyes fell on the coffin, "Do you believe my concubine mother will commit suicide?"

Xue Yao, "?? How is it possible? To say something outrageous, if the imperial concubine complained about the emperor, she would have complained long ago. No matter how bad her brain is, she can't write it down. Even if she writes it down, she can't give it to you. Is there any mention of you and the eighth princess?"

Jing Yi shook his head, "No, that's why I was surprised. If the concubine mother really committed suicide, then why did she drug herself in the room?"

Xue Yao, "Who gave the drug? Who lit the incense? Who took out the suicide note? You can check all of these."

After hearing what he said, Jing Yi couldn't believe it, and grabbed his hand vigorously, so hard that his nails sank into the flesh, leaving a bloodstain.

Xue Yao gasped in pain. Seeing that he was so excited, he suppressed the pain forcefully, and just called out quietly, "Your Highness?"

Jing Yi came back to his senses, with a disheartened expression on his face, "These are all bamboo autumn."

Xue Yao, "Zhuqiu?"

Jing Yi, "She ordered the incense, and she took out the suicide note to the Queen Mother."

So that's the case, Xue Yao nodded, it made sense, he and Zhu Qiu didn't know each other very well, so he didn't think so.

"She is the closest person to the imperial concubine. If she wants to imitate the handwriting, it is also possible, but why is she?"

Jing Yi laughed, "Yeah, why, is there anyone in this world who is trustworthy?"

Zhuqiu was the most capable maid of honor for his mother and concubine. For many years, since Jing Yi could remember, Zhuqiu had been in Wanyue Palace, but it was her who buried Chen Guifei in the end, what a shame.

Seeing that his expression was not quite right, Xue Yao called out "Your Highness" twice, seeing that Jing Yi still had no response, he bravely hugged him into his arms, only to find that he was in constant motion. trembling.

Gently stroking Jing Yi's back, Xue Yao comforted softly, "Your Highness, don't be sad."

Jing Yi stayed in his arms without speaking for a while, and after a while, "I just feel sorry for my mother and concubine, who I trusted for half my life, actually hurt her."

"Then we'll let her be buried with her. If you still don't let go of your hatred, I'll go find her family and let them be buried with the imperial concubine."
