Difficulty in deciphering

Zhao Minghe.

Zhao Minghe.

Zhao Minghe...

From that night onwards, the three words Zhao Minghe were firmly imprinted in Lin Jieyu's mind and could not be lingered.At night, just as Yi Chen fell asleep, he heard someone knock on the door.

"Who?" He opened his sleepy eyes and asked angrily.

"Me." Lin Jieyu stood outside the door and replied softly.

"Jie Yu?! Come in quickly." Yi Chen immediately woke up when he heard Lin Jieyu's voice. He hurriedly sat up from the bed, put on his coat, and opened the door to welcome her. "What happened?"

"Do you know Zhao Minghe?" Who knew that Lin Jieyu didn't enter Yichen's door, but just stood at the door thoughtfully.

"Zhao Minghe...?" Suddenly hearing Lin Jieyu's question, Yi Chen didn't react for a while. "You mean... the general under General Yuan Wei?"

"Ah."

"I know." After getting confirmation, Yi Chen replied, then asked again. "What's up with her?"

"What kind of person is she..." Lin Jieyu seemed to be thinking, and asked for a long time.

"What kind of person...? I haven't been in contact with her, so I don't know very well." Yi Chen recalled Zhao Minghe's appearance, and then said. "However... just from the appearance... she is a very bright and beautiful person. She is young and a woman, but it is not easy to take the position of lieutenant general. In addition... there are some rumors that Zhao Minghe is a The general is gentle and tight, easy to get close to, she is often mixed with the soldiers of the army, and... as long as she is in the war, she is rarely defeated."

"mild?"

"Someone said that." Yi Chen laughed.

However, Lin Jieyu's mind was not on this, and it took Yichen a while to listen to Lin Jieyu's question.

"Am I... gentle?"

"Your words..." Hearing Lin Jieyu's question, Yi Chen didn't know how to answer for a moment.But being watched by Lin Jieyu like this, his head became a little hot, and he spoke quickly. "Feeling a little cold...?"

Hearing the word "cold", Lin Jieyu's face froze, as if he had been hit.

Seeing her like this, Yi Chen knew that she had said something wrong, so she hurriedly added.

"Although it's a bit cold...but it's still very gentle..."

But these words obviously didn't work, he saw Lin Jieyu turn around, as if he was about to leave.

"Jie Yu...? Xie Yu! What I said is true...you are really gentle too! Believe me!" Yi Chen ran after Lin Jieyu.He explained while running, but at a certain moment he felt a gust of cool wind flashing across his cheeks, and then there was a beautifully crafted silver hand knife firmly fixed in the wood behind him.

Yi Chen didn't dare to take half a step forward any more, so he stood obediently on the spot, letting the cold sweat drip down his forehead.

Lin Jieyu and Lin Huiye spent nearly a month in the cell, but they still hadn't waited for the emperor to announce the princess's death.Lin Jieyu knew that although Lin Huiye looked calm, his heart was uncertain.

Another day, Lin Jieyu delivered food to Lin Huiye as usual. After Lin Huiye took the food, he felt that Lin Jieyu's mood was obviously not right, so he called her.

"Explanation?"

"En." Lin Jieyu answered briefly, and then fell silent again.

"what happened to you?"

"It's nothing... just feeling bored... very dry..." Seeing Lin Huiye's worried face, Lin Jieyu forced a smile.

"When did it start?" Seeing that Lin Jieyu was obviously absent-minded, Lin Huiye asked.

"Almost every year, I have these few days, but with you... that feeling will fade away, and then it will gradually get better." Lin Jieyu replied. "It may be that day again this year... I will have dreams again these few nights... I will have... nightmares about Yang..."

"What else is there in the dream besides Yang?" Lin Huiye frowned when Lin Jieyu started having nightmares again.

"There's still fire...a big fire...and crying...the cries and shouts of many people..." Hearing Lin Huiye's question, Lin Jieyu tried hard to recall, but he couldn't remember anything else. up.

"What kind of person is Yang in the dream?" Lin Huiye stretched out his hand from the iron railing, held Lin Jieyu's hand in his palm, and said warmly.

"It's a bad guy...a very annoying person..."

"Who is he? How do you know him?"

"I don't know...I can't remember..." Lin Jieyu tried hard to think, but couldn't remember anything.She supported her head with one hand, and clenched the railing with the other hand, only feeling a kind of tearing pain spread in her mind.

"Is there me in the dream?" Seeing her like this, Lin Huiye did not continue to ask, but smiled.

"No." Lin Jieyu raised his eyes, looking at Lin Huiye's smiling face.

"Because I went to kill the bad guys."

"what?"

"You couldn't see me in the dream because I went to kill the bad guys." Lin Huiye repeated patiently. She raised her hand, rubbed Lin Jieyu's head, and said softly. "So, you and I were in that dream. Until I woke up from the dream, I was still by your side."

Lin Jieyu heard Lin Huiye say this, tears kept streaming down his cheeks, and he couldn't stop.

That night, Lin Jieyu slept in the cell next to the iron bars, but the nightmare came again.

"Yang...yang...yang!"

In the darkest time before dawn, Lin Jieyu woke up from his dream crying the name of "Yang".The moment he woke up, Lin Jieyu only felt that he had fallen into a deep darkness.

The fire receded, and the whole world was eerily silent.

"There is no sun here." However, in the silence, a familiar voice said to himself. "Only Kaguya."

"Hui Ye...Hui Ye..." Hearing what Lin Huiye said, Lin Jieyu stretched out his hand into the iron fence, and soon touched Lin Huiye.She only felt Lin Huiye's arms pass through the iron bars to hold her in her arms, and she was instantly warm.

Lin Jieyu couldn't stop crying. She greedily absorbed Lin Huiye's weak temperature and murmured her name.

"Kaguya...Kaguya...I don't know why I feel so sad every time I wake up from a dream...I have asked myself countless times, so...is it really just a dream..."

"Well, it's a dream." Lin Huiye said softly.

"I had you in my dream?"

Lin Jieyu asked in a trembling voice, and Lin Huiye answered patiently.

"There is me."

Lin Jieyu spent the night peacefully in Lin Huiye's arms, but the next morning he heard a news that shook the court.

Prince Lin Hengzhi——death.

"What...? What did you say??!" Lin Huiye, who had been silent for several days, finally broke out when he heard the news of Lin Hengzhi's death.She smashed the porcelain plate in her hand and shouted loudly.

"Prince Lin Hengzhi, die." Lin Jieyu stood silently outside the cell, lowered his head and said softly.

For a long time, Lin Huiye didn't make any sound.

Lin Jieyu waited until she thought that Lin Huiye would never speak again, and only listened to her.

"Impossible...it's impossible..."

"Why is it impossible?" Lin Jieyu asked.

"Hengzhi is kind and generous...never makes enemies and acts prudently...how could..."

"I heard that the prince was captured by the enemy." Lin Jieyu continued. "General Zhao broke into the siege with his elite troops, but the entire army was wiped out... In the end, only the general came back... and brought... the body of His Highness the Crown Prince."

"The whole army was wiped out...but only Minghe came back...? He also brought...Hengzhi's body?"

"It is rumored that General Zhao who returned to the camp is also wounded all over his body, dying, and is still unconscious."

Hearing what Lin Jieyu said, Lin Huiye stopped talking.

Lin Jieyu lit the palace lantern, and saw Lin Huiye, who was leaning on the iron railing, slide down slowly, and finally sat on the floor of the cell.

"Hui Ye?" Lin Jieyu called her, but never got any response.

At night, Lin Jieyu suddenly felt extremely dizzy.She raised her hand to touch her forehead, and found that a thin layer of sweat had soaked there.She thought, she has been running between the prison and Anbu these days, maybe she has a fever?

Thinking of this, Lin Jieyu blew out the palace lantern, leaned against the corner quietly and closed his eyes to rest.

"Why did you turn off the lights?" Lin Huiye, who had been silent all this time, asked.

"It's time to rest." Lin Jieyu replied. "Your Highness, please sleep well."

"En." Lin Huiye responded, then called her again. "Explanation."

"kindness?"

"Don't leave tonight." Lin Huiye ordered in the dark cage. "Yue Yao may come."

"Okay." Hearing what Lin Huiye said, Lin Jieyu curled up his lips and smiled lightly. "Xieyu... I will protect the princess even if I swear to the death."

Lin Jieyu had a hazy night. She only felt that her eyelids were heavy and her mind was blank, but she stubbornly dared not close her eyes.Finally, in the middle of the night, the gate at the end of the dungeon was opened.

Lin Jieyu, who was in a daze, suddenly stood up with her sword in hand. She performed lightness kung fu and quickly hid on the roof.

After a while, Yue Yao came in with a lantern.He looked at Lin Huiye who was resting in the cell and smiled.

"Lin Huiye, how comfortable are you in this cell?"

"Very comfortable." Lin Huiye looked at him, and saw four imperial guards behind him, all of whom were loyal to him.

"Tell me how many crimes your royal family has committed in this life? You didn't have much blood in the first place, but now you are the only one left."

"Father didn't ask you to bring someone to my place today, did you?" Lin Huiye asked with raised eyebrows.

"Your father? Maybe your father is hiding in the Ronghua Palace and crying now?"

"Then what are you doing here?"

"I'm kind enough to send you to accompany your brother for a ride."

"Are you afraid that if you don't kill me this time, if I accidentally become the new emperor by my father, you will have no chance? After all... the only blood of the royal family is me..." Lin Hui Ye Xiao, then looked at Yue Yaodao. "As the imperial guard, you have already violated the regulations of the secret guard. Assassinating a member of the royal family privately is a capital offense."

"Hehe... I assassinate members of the royal family? It's better than you slaughtering your own brothers and sisters! Han Yu... Han Yu is so innocent... She should live a life of peace...but you...but..."

"It is true that the royal family can have a pure princess. But the premise is that this princess is surrounded by the strongest person in the palace, who is strong enough to protect her from any harm. If she dies, it can only show that the princess is protected. She is not strong enough, so how can she blame others?"

"Lin Huiye...there is no more cruel person than you in the world! If I kill you here, it will be a blessing to the people of the world! lest you one day bring disaster to the country and the people! I think... His Majesty the Emperor will forgive me... "

As if angered by Lin Huiye's words, Yue Yao spoke hastily, and he ordered loudly.

"Come here! Open the cell for me! Kill her!"

Following Yue Yao's loud orders, the two outermost guards behind him let out a miserable howl.When Yue Yao turned his head, he saw a large amount of blood spurting from their necks, and then they fell to the ground.

"Xie...yu...?" After the two guards fell down, Yue Yao saw Lin Jieyu standing behind them, holding a long sword.

"The dark guards exist for the royal family, and the imperial dark guards must protect the emperor on this basis." Lin Jieyu said with cold eyes. "Master Yue forgot about these?"

"Do you want to rebel!"

"You want to rebel?" Lin Jieyu lowered his eyes, looked at the sword in his hand and said calmly.

"Are you...are you determined to protect Lin Huiye? You know how ruthless she is...but you still want to embrace such a person as the future emperor?"

Lin Jieyu stood silently on the spot without saying a word.

"Heh...it seems so. Since you want to die for Lin Huiye so much...then I'll make you happy! Take Jieyu!"

The two hidden guards behind him froze when they heard the word "Jie Yu".

After all...the one standing in front of her is Anbu's only female guard, and she was once the only flower in their dark guard.She had saved them, and had spent countless dangerous moments with them.

Even... even her casual smile can be remembered for a long time...

They all knew that the hidden guards might face such a situation one day, but they didn't expect this day to come so soon.

But Lin Jieyu didn't hesitate, Yue Yao saw her figure flicker, and she had already arrived at the center of the only two remaining imperial guards in an instant.The two hidden guards withdrew at an extremely fast speed to avoid her attack, but they almost found a faint bloodstain on their necks.

For a moment, cold sweat ran down their foreheads.Just think... If they dodge more slowly, I'm afraid that they would have been dead in the sky prison like the previous hidden guards.

It wasn't until now that they suddenly realized.

That was not a flower, but a murderous weapon—a sharp blade.
