He was also very puzzled by Bai Youlin's uncharacteristic behavior.

Bai Youlin sat on the stone bench and wiped his sword, let Dongfang Jihua chatter in his ear, until the other party finally said that he was tired and sat down to drink water, he still didn't even look at him for charity.

"What's so good about this sword of yours?" Bai Youlin's eyes were glued to the sword, which made Dongfang Jihua very depressed.

Hearing these words, Bai Youlin was finally willing to look away.He glanced at Dongfang Jihua, then looked at the sword in his hand, and with Dongfang Jihua's expression as if he had seen a ghost, he held the sword in front of the other party:

"this is for you."

"Isn't this yours?" Dongfang Jihua was a little confused. From the moment he saw Bai Youlin, this sword was always carried by the other party. Why did it suddenly become his own?

Seeing Dongfang Jihua's doubts, Bai Youlin explained: "This is the saber master prepared for his new disciple, and I just keep it for him."

"So that's how it is." Dongfang Jihua finally let go of the sword, but at the same time he asked another question, "What about your sword?"

"I don't have a sword." Bai Youlin replied.

"Then what do you usually use?"

"..." Bai Youlin stared faintly at Dongfang Jihua, as if he was looking at something through him.

It was this kind of look again... Dongfang Jihua became vigilant, followed Bai Youlin's gaze, and what he saw was the only big tree in the yard, and there were still traces carved by a flying knife a few days ago on the trunk.

Dongfang Jihua's face turned blue and white in an instant, no wonder that kid could always take out a bunch of throwing knives on different occasions, it turned out that throwing knives were his most commonly used weapons!

"Then you beat me with a sword all day long! Play!!" Dongfang Jihua gritted his teeth.

"I'm not teasing you, I just like to use swords."

Bai Youlin's eyes were too sincere when he spoke, which directly poured out half of Dongfang Jihua's turbulent anger.

Sighing softly, Dongfang Jihua took Bai Youlin's hand and handed the sword to his hand: "Use it if you like it."

"This is from the master, not from me." Bai Youlin refused righteously.

"Really not?"

"No."

"I've convinced you. When senior brother returns home, I'll find someone to give you a peerless sword." Dongfang Jihua didn't insist, and after taking back the sword, he sat beside Bai Youlin and promised very seriously.

"No need, you won't be rewarded for any merit." Bai Youlin continued to refuse mercilessly.

"Do you think it was given to you for nothing? I have conditions!" Dongfang Jihua rolled his eyes, and then moved closer to Bai Youlin, "How about you, junior brother, be responsible for protecting me from now on?"

"..."

"Don't keep talking, just take care of me."

"..."

"Junior brother, I don't like to use swords, nor do I like to practice martial arts. I just want to find someone with strong ability to protect me. I don't ask much, as long as I can live well in this life..."

"Ah."

The fuzzy memory gradually became clear. Dongfang Jihua was wearing a golden dragon robe, and with a gentle smile, he stroked the sword that carried childhood memories in his hand. Behind him was the dark guard who was kneeling and reporting the news.

"The task has been completed well, continue to go back and stare."

"Yes."

After the dark guard left, Dongfang Jihua put down his sword and fell into thinking...

Brother, what is the secret?Why does he like the Wangxiang Building in his mansion so much?

Chapter 3

"Miss Zhao family?"

Bathed in the morning light, Bai Youlin looked down at Zhao Xiansi who had fallen to the ground from a high position. He was dressed in white clothes that were better than snow, without any trace of dust.

Zhao Xiansi raised his head, stared blankly at the man who suddenly appeared in front of him, and couldn't say anything for a moment.

"You..." Bai Youlin looked at Zhao Xiansi for a while, and asked unhurriedly, "You like lying on the ground?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xiansi instantly woke up from her daze, she stood up suddenly, and hurriedly arranged her appearance.

"You escaped from the Prime Minister's Mansion." Bai Youlin said lightly.

This sentence is not an interrogative sentence but an affirmative sentence. How could Zhao Xiansi, who has always been smart, fail to understand Bai Youlin's meaning? She looked terrified:

"The young master is really powerful, and he can see the origin of the little girl at a glance, but since the young master knows that I am a member of the prime minister's mansion, he should understand that he should not go into this muddy water. For the safety of the young master, I hope the young master will not see me. The matter of leaking out, the little girl is grateful!"

While speaking, Zhao Xiansi quietly clenched the hairpin hidden in his sleeve.

Naturally, this kind of little trick couldn't escape Bai Youlin's eyes, so he wasn't annoyed, he slightly raised his eyelids and said leisurely: "Miss Zhao, don't waste your efforts, your little tricks won't hurt me, and I won't tell anyone about it." I saw you today. I can even help you if you need."

"What can you do to help me?" Zhao Xiansi smiled.

"How long do you think you can escape by yourself?" Bai Youlin seemed unable to hear the sarcasm in Zhao Xiansi's words.

"But I don't believe in you, young master. You don't look like someone who can fight against the prime minister's mansion." Zhao Xiansi still had a sarcastic smile on his lips, and he was not moved by Bai Youlin's persuasion at all.

"Really?" Bai Youlin looked at Zhao Xiansi calmly, without any emotion in his eyes, "My name is Bai Youlin."

Bai Youlin?Zhao Xiansi's eyes widened, isn't this father's political enemy?

"You and I are not relatives, why did you help me?" Zhao Xiansi's heart rang out.

"To tell you the truth, I'm here to wait for you on purpose today." Bai Youlin said frankly, "Zhao Zhe wants to send you into the palace to become a queen, so as to make a bright future for the Zhao family, but the emperor doesn't want to be a queen right now, so he Let me handle you."

"Then what are you going to do with me?" Zhao Xiansi swallowed, with cold sweat breaking out on his head.

"You have two choices." Bai Youlin folded his arms and said slowly, "First, I'll kill you with one knife. Second, I'll help you change your identity and fly away."

As expected, Zhao Xiansi chose the second one, so Bai Youlin randomly found a few people to escort her out of the capital, and never cared about her whereabouts after that.

"Junior brother is really my right-hand man!"

Knowing that Zhao Xiansi had completely left the capital, Dongfang Jihua patted Bai Youlin very satisfied.

"Your Majesty's absurd praise." Bai Youlin glanced at the hand on his shoulder indifferently, expressing implicitly that he wanted Dongfang Jihua to take his hand away, but Dongfang Jihua didn't seem to see it, and he didn't take his hand away either. Meaning, Bai Youlin had no choice but to let him go.

"A few days ago, I received news that there was another war at the border. I had a general idea about it. They were all harmless incidents. I have already sent people there." Dongfang Jihua suddenly talked about the border with Bai Youlin, but He announced the result directly, and it seemed that he just wanted to tell Bai Youlin.

Bai Youlin frowned and lowered his head: "I don't know why Your Majesty told this minister?"

Dongfang Jihua was silent for a while, until Bai Youlin wanted to say "It's the minister who overstepped" before he spoke first: "I just wanted to tell you suddenly, lest you find out about this in the future and blame me for not letting you play."

"I dare not." Bai Youlin lowered his head even lower.

"Youlin, I have only been enthroned for a few years, and many ministers are still ready to move. If you hadn't won this battle... I need you to stay by my side now, do you know?" Dongfang Jihua felt a little disappointed.

"I understand."

Seeing Dongfang Jihua's melancholy expression, Bai Youlin's heart suddenly became heavy.

In the blink of an eye, it was winter, and the north wind whizzed past. The heavy snow covered the entire capital city in silver-white clothes overnight, and thick snow piled up on the roofs and branches.

Walking out of the warm hall, the oncoming cold wind made his cheeks ache, giving people the illusion that his face was about to split open.Bai Youlin raised his head and exhaled softly. The sky was blank, and large flakes of snowflakes fell from the sky, like catkins flying all over the sky in March.

"Why isn't General Bai leaving?" Zhao Zhe walked to Bai Youlin's side, patted Bai Youlin's shoulder, and chatted with Bai Youlin like a kind elder, "The child must be at home now looking forward to the general's return. Family rewards, general, are you right?"

Bai Youlin just gave Zhao Zhe a sideways look, and he didn't buy into the suspicious intimacy of the other party: "It is true that the beautiful scenery should be shared with the family, but the younger generation's family affairs don't bother the prime minister, so the prime minister should worry more about the affairs of his own house, dear Has Miss Fu come back?"

"The general said that... the old man just wants to care about the general, why should the general hold a gun and a stick like this." Zhao Zhe looked at Bai Youlin with the eyes of a child who is watching a mischief, with a loving father, "Your servant Only by living in harmony with each other can we better assist the Holy One in governing the country!"

"This junior is grateful for the prime minister's kindness, but if you have the time to care about this junior's affairs, you might as well think about yourself. This junior thinks that the prime minister must care much more than this junior." Bai Youlin said, turning his head meaningfully He glanced at Zhao Zhe calmly, "The junior will leave first."

"Wait." Zhao Zhe stretched out his hand to grab Bai Youlin's shoulder and brought it to Bai Youlin's ear, whispering threateningly:

"Young people, don't be too arrogant. The officialdom is not as simple as you think. Now that the emperor likes you and spoils you, it doesn't mean that he will love you in the future. No matter how good the relationship is, it can't be worth a sentence of unpredictable heart. Anyway, it is also true." After staying in the officialdom for so many years, General Bai doesn't know what happened to the former Luo family and Lin family, right?"

Bai Youlin's hands were clenched into fists, but due to the cover of his sleeves, Zhao Zhe didn't notice anything strange about him.

He took Zhao Zhe's hand off his shoulder, turned sideways and looked straight at Zhao Zhe: "These words
