Difficulty in deciphering

Lin Huiye leaned against the dark sky prison and closed his eyes, his mind was blank.

There is nothing here.

There are no prisoners, no narrow skylights, and no dim candles.

There is... just endless darkness and loneliness.

Ever since Lin Huiye entered here, Yue Yao has never entered here again.But Lin Huiye knew that as long as Yue Yao was around, she couldn't even guarantee three meals a day.That man wanted to kill her in the slowest and cruelest way.

Continue to struggle?

live?

Such thoughts faded away in Lin Huiye's mind.

This darkness made her manic emotions gradually settle down.

Sometimes Lin Huiye would think, did she really kill her brother to survive?Or... just for the dignity that she was born with and cannot be violated.

Lin Huiye didn't know how long she had been in this prison, she only knew that she would dream whenever she fell asleep.In the dream, it was always snowing, and Zhao Huanghe was chasing after the long convoy in armor, as if he had something to say to himself.Holding on to the edge of the window and turning around, he saw Zhao Huanghe's eyebrows were beautifully set off by the glint of snow.She stopped where she was and looked at herself, with an anxious look on her face.Lin Huiye saw her talking to him.

Kaguya.

don't want……!

"Xuhe...Xuhe..." Lin Huiye wanted to run towards her, but was stopped by Yue Yao unexpectedly.In the dream, Lin Huiye struggled hard, but was finally crushed onto the carriage.She saw the carriage sneaking faster and faster, Zhao Huanghe got farther and farther away from her, and finally...disappeared.

"Xiaohe!!" Waking up suddenly from the dream, Lin Huiye's vision was completely dark, the bright colors in the dream seemed to be taken away by the darkness in an instant, leaving only endless longing.

"Are you dreaming again..." Lin Huiye muttered with dry lips.She wanted to raise her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, but found that she didn't even have the strength to raise her hand.

However, at this moment, Lin Huiye heard the iron door of the cell rang.Then, there was a faint light coming from the end of the darkness.She just leaned against the railing, watching the palace lantern getting closer and closer to her.

"Explanation?"

After the man approached, Lin Huiye finally saw the man's appearance.She was still the same as when she left, dressed in white, with clear eyebrows.

"His Royal Highness." Xie Yu called her, then put the palace lantern on the ground, and knelt down to be as tall as Lin Huiye.

"Why are you crying?" Lin Huiye saw Lin Jieyu staring at her all the time, she didn't even blink her eyes, tears just kept pouring out of her eyes.

"I didn't cry." Lin Jieyu stubbornly wanted to wipe away his tears, but he couldn't.In the end, she gave up wiping away her tears, raised her hand through the iron bars to cover the wound at the corner of Lin Huiye's mouth, and asked in a voice as calm as possible. "Is it painful?"

"It doesn't hurt." Lin Huiye gently pressed his cheek into Lin Jieyu's palm and replied.

"What's going on with you? Why were you locked in suddenly." Lin Jieyu could only feel that Lin Huiye's cold cheeks were burning hot at the moment, as if he had a fever.This person...is still the same as he remembered, so noble and distant...but his body is extremely weak.

"Father knows about Lin Haoxi and the others." Lin Huiye closed his eyes as if tired. "So I was recalled from the border. I was ordered to be confined forever. I think...in a few days, he will announce to the whole world that Lin Huiye, the first princess of Panchao, has passed away. From then on...there will be no one like me gone."

"What...?" Hearing what Lin Huiye said, Lin Jieyu felt a chill in his heart and asked. "Your Majesty... how did Your Majesty know?"

"Lin Hanyu."

"Impossible..." Lin Jieyu shook his head when he heard the name. "Before Han Yu had time to tell the emperor...she already had...and her evidence, they should also disappear into the sea of ​​flames..."

"Evidence?" Hearing what Lin Jieyu said, Lin Huiye raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Han Yu said...she has all the evidence about you...and hides it in a place where no one can find it..."

"I see." Hearing what Lin Jieyu said, Lin Huiye suddenly understood.

"how?"

"Lin Hanyu hid the evidence," Lin Huiye said. "But it wasn't hidden in the Yingchun Palace...it was hidden on a person."

"You mean...?"

"That person is called Yue Yao." Lin Huiye said with cold eyes.

"Yue Yao?"

"As a princess of the royal family, of course she is closest to the secret guard. For her, the commander of the secret guard in front of the imperial court is the safest existence. It's just... I don't know if Han Yu knows Yue Yao's thoughts about her. gone."

Hearing what Lin Huiye said, Lin Jieyu stayed where he was.The entire dungeon was extremely quiet for a moment, and she only heard Lin Huiye continue in a low voice.

"I think... on the day of the fire, Yue Yao wanted to come to rescue Lin Hanyu. It's just... it's not as fast as you."

In the next few days, Lin Jieyu would come to see Lin Huiye in the dungeon.She deliberately avoided Yue Yao, and often visited in the middle of the night.After a few days, Lin Jieyu simply didn't even turn on the lights in order not to arouse suspicion.

In the starless and moonless dungeon, Lin Jieyu liked to lean against the railing and listen to Lin Huiye's words.She didn't even need Lin Huiye to talk, just being with her like this made her feel at ease.

"Hui Ye..."

Another night, Lin Jieyu still stayed outside Lin Huiye's fence to call her.

"En?" Lin Huiye responded to her, his voice seemed to be more energetic than the previous few days.

"Do you think His Majesty will really imprison you here forever?" Lin Jieyu asked.

"Perhaps." Lin Huiye replied, his voice was flat, no emotion could be heard.Lin Jieyu curled up his knees and sat outside the cell, but he heard that Lin Huiye seemed to be smiling, and Lin Jieyu heard her ask. "What if father imprisoned me here for the rest of his life?"

"Then I will rescue you." Lin Jieyu replied.

"How to save?" Hearing what Lin Jieyu said, Lin Huiye asked with great interest.

"I can be your bird, so that you can gather your own power even if you can't leave this cage." Lin Jieyu seemed to be thinking about something, and said slowly. "I can also be your sword, making you invincible in this dark palace. I can also be your shield, protecting you from being hurt by others..."

Lin Jieyu just said that, with a hint of joy in her words, she looked in Lin Huiye's direction, and then spoke softly. "Kaguya, what should I do? It seems that for you... I can transform into everything in the world..."

"What if... I don't want to leave here?" After a long silence, Lin Jieyu heard Lin Huiye ask.

"Then I will stay with you in this darkness and sleep forever in the cage, okay?"

There were no more sounds in the silent darkness, Lin Jieyu only felt that the surroundings were too quiet, and there was nowhere to hide his "thumping" heartbeat.

However, Lin Jieyu knew that Lin Huiye would not stay in the darkness for long.She was just waiting, waiting silently.It seemed that as soon as the time came, she could break free from the cocoon that bound her and spread her wings away.

"Hui Ye, what did you say before His Majesty imprisoned you?"

The next day, Lin Jieyu brought some delicious pastries.She asked while passing some to Lin Huiye through the iron fence.

"He asked me for evidence." Lin Huiye's spirit seemed to be much better, and he could already stand up and walk back and forth.She said while eating the pastry. "As if as long as there is evidence that they hurt me, they can blame me."

"The peach blossom tattoo behind you..." Hearing the word "evidence", Lin Jieyu immediately thought of the large peach blossom behind Lin Huiye.She didn't remember her reaction when she saw the peach blossom for the first time, she only remembered that she was blindfolded by tears at that time, and she no longer cared about other things.

"That's not evidence." However, Lin Huiye said coldly. "That's just a shame. A shame that you don't want to show anyone."

"Sometimes... I really feel that you have more imperial temperament than the princes." Hearing Lin Huiye's answer, Lin Jieyu sighed.

She thought, Lin Huiye's heart is so arrogant, but he only let himself know the shame that he didn't want to show to anyone... Does this mean...that she really has a place in her heart?

"How do you know?" Lin Huiye followed Lin Jieyu's words.

"It's just...a feeling, I can't describe it."

"I'm not suitable to be an emperor." However, Lin Huiye quickly vetoed it, and Lin Jieyu listened to her calmly. "I will not bring happiness to this country. Only Hengzhi... only a gentle and generous person like Hengzhi can become the emperor of the Pan Dynasty. Father will be his best general and will take care of everything for him .”

"how about you?"

"I...? When my father announces my death... I can live the life I want." Lin Huiye said, Lin Jieyu finally heard a faint joy in her voice.

However, at that moment, she also suddenly realized a problem that she had neglected for a long time.

If Lin Huiye lived the life she wanted, where would she go?

I stayed by Lin Huiye's side only because Lin Huiye was a princess...Lin Huiye needed to be by my side...Lin Huiye needed his own protection...However, when Lin Huiye became an ordinary person, she Then she will marry the man she loves...

At that time... Will she... still let herself stay by her side?

If...she doesn't let herself stay by her side...then...

"Xieyu?" Seeing that Lin Jieyu didn't move for a while, Lin Huiye called her.

"kindness?"

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about Huiye's life... thinking about Huiye's life after leaving the palace...what kind of people she will meet...and Huiye's children..." Lin Jieyu murmured, as if he was really thinking about it. "The boy is handsome...the girl must be just like you...beautiful."

"Where are you thinking?" Lin Huiye smiled.

"Kaguya... What kind of man will you fall in love with in the future?"

"A man?" Hearing Lin Jieyu's question, Lin Huiye laughed again.She shook her head. "I think I may never fall in love with any man in my life..."

"You..." Hearing Lin Huiye said that he would not like a man, Lin Jieyu's heart beat wildly, as if something was about to come out from the bottom of his heart.

Of course...

The next moment she heard Lin Huiye muttering again.

"I want her."

"Who?" Suddenly hearing the word "she" from Lin Huiye, Lin Jieyu was stunned.

But Lin Huiye blurted out that person's name as if he had been thinking about it for a long time.

Lin Jieyu only heard Lin Huiye say three words.

Those three words are...

"Zhao Huanghe."
