At midnight, there was not a single person on the street. A waning moon hung in the endless dark night sky, casting a few shadows coldly. Occasionally, one could hear the rustling of tree branches in the wind.

The palace was silent and tranquil, with layers of buildings and pavilions, and high eaves on all four corners. Looking up, one could see green bricks and red tiles, which were blurry in the night.

I saw a person wearing a veiled hat, with a slender figure, leaning over and hiding on the roof.

Ever since the last fight in the ruined temple outside the city, Mu Jinan had been filled with doubts, but Li Heng was insidious and cunning, with deep scheming. He wondered if he could find any clues that he was reincarnated or traveled through time.

Mu Jinan lifted a few bricks and tiles and looked down.

Li Heng sat at his desk in the room. The light from the crimson lamp and the candlelight merged and reflected on his warm, fair and cold face.

He flipped through one memorial after another, and a whiff of fragrance wafted out of the house.

A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, and she thought to herself:

"You're not sleeping in the middle of the night. Do you have to work so hard? Try so hard?"

He squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully, and said in disbelief, "Isn't this a memorial? Why is it here?"

"How dare he intercept so many memorials!"

After a while, Mu Jinan felt a little sleepy and the person he was staring at didn't make any big movements.

Suddenly, he stood up and walked towards the bookshelf.

She was on the roof, eyes wide open, holding her breath as she watched carefully.

I saw him using his frail body to move the bookshelf, gently open the mechanism on the wall, and walk in.

She asked curiously, "There is a dark room." She glanced at the roof, trying to follow the direction to see if she could find any clues, but she found none.

Mu Jinan had no choice but to continue waiting. After a while, she looked down through the hole in the bricks and tiles on the roof.

He walked out of the dark room, the dim candlelight shone on his tired face, and he could vaguely see the tears on his face that had not yet been wiped away. Every step he took seemed heavy.

He choked a little and said:

"I wonder if you are doing well? I miss you so much."

She was a little confused "He cried?"

He was so angry that his teeth itched: "Why is a grown man hiding in the house crying in the middle of the night?"

Mu Jinan was watching seriously when he was suddenly startled by a loud scream.

She quickly lay down to avoid it, and heard:

The man's rough voice yelled "Get lost"

Then I heard: "Prince, it's so late. Our prince has gone to bed and can't see you."

Then there was a knock on the door.

There was another sound of the door closing, "bang", which even reached the roof and the vibration could be felt.

She saw through the roof and covered her mouth in surprise:

"Isn't this Prince Ge Jiang? What is he doing here in the middle of the night? Are they in collusion? Doesn't Li Heng hate Yu He?"

Ge Jiang was filled with anger, and there seemed to be a flame in his eyes:

"Why have you been hiding from me these past few days?"

Li Heng's eyes were cold and he didn't even look at him. He just said coldly:

"busy"

Ge Jiang tried to calm down her inner anger, walked closer to him, and reached out to pick up his clothes:

"Little prince, let me see if your wounds are healed."

Li Heng dodged his pull, his eyes red:

"What are you doing? Get out!"

On the roof, Mu Jinan's eyes were full of curiosity, and he was puzzled:

“Why am I confused?”

Li Heng took a step back, his bright eyes filled with resentment and anger:

"Don't come to the palace so late in the future"

Ge Jiang squeezed his chin tightly and said angrily: "Little prince, you have been back to Chang'an for so long, and you have never served me."

Mu Jinan pursed her lips tightly, her eyelashes brushed across her eyelids, and her brain was working rapidly:

"My head hurts. What does Ge Jiang mean by that?"

"Is Li Heng being treated as Ge Jiang's servant and slave in Yuhe?"

Li Heng tried to struggle and push him away, saying loudly:

"I am injured and cannot serve you. Please find someone else."

Ge Jiang raised a wicked smile at the corner of his lips, stroked his cheek with one hand, and asked tentatively:

"When I saw Ce An that day, although he was not as handsome and gentle as you, he was also as gentle as water."

Mu Jinan pursed his lips: "What do you mean?"

Li Heng reacted violently, his eyes were sinister and his face was murderous:

"You are not allowed to touch him, or I will kill you."

Ge Jiang laughed loudly, "Hahaha, kill me? Do you have the ability to do that?"

"Behind me is the entire Yuhe"

Ge Jiang pulled him into his arms, ripped off his clothes, and started violently:

"If you want to protect him, you will serve me."

Li Heng used all his strength to push and resist Ge Jiang, but his weak body was unable to stop him.

Mu Jinan's pupils trembled, her heart seemed to stop beating, and she held her breath. At that moment, her mind stopped thinking, and she stared with her eyes motionless:

"What is this? They are... gay men?"

"explosion"

She covered her mouth with her slender fingers, not daring to look anymore, and turned away.

And curious.

Turn around.

His fingers slightly covered his eyes.

Mu Jinan felt something was wrong: "Why is there no one coming to the palace despite such loud shouting?"

Gritting his teeth, he said, "He brought hundreds of people to attack me a few days ago, and he didn't even dare to resist Ge Jiang."

"Evildoers will be punished by their own evil"

The sound of his crying reached her ears.

Mu Jinan watched Li Heng struggle and resist, terrified:

"Li Heng obviously didn't want to do this, he was forced to do it"

"..Don't worry about him...He wants to kill me...I'm not a saint."

Mu Jinan turned his head away and closed his eyes tightly, feeling mixed emotions. Li Heng's description of him as a lost prince was no different from a hostage.

There are a few Protons who have a good life, and being beaten and bullied is a common occurrence.

She suddenly understood how Li Heng returned to China. Yuhe had always been reluctant to send the hostage back to China, and now he was allowed to come back. The two of them were in collusion, and perhaps there was a bigger conspiracy.

With a "bang", the door was kicked open and Mu Jinan looked in anxiously.

It was Ce'an. He straightened his chest, put an arrow in his hand and drew the bow, aiming at Ge Jiang, his eyes seeming to hide a sharp blade.

A strong and resilient voice said: "Ge Jiang, let go of the prince"

Li Heng's clothes were torn and his wounds were torn. His messy hair could not hide the sadness in his eyes. He quickly put on his clothes to hide his inner inferiority and pain.

Ge Jiang stood up. Being interrupted, he immediately became angry and irritable:

"If you dare to ruin my good deeds, I will kill you."

Li Heng glared at him and said, "Ge Jiang, I told you not to touch him."

Ge Jiang pushed Li Heng away and walked towards Ce'an, with a smile on his lips: "If you have the ability, you can shoot me to death with one arrow."

Li Heng staggered back a few steps and shouted in panic: "Ce'an, put down your bow and arrow and get out!"

A pearl fell from Ce An's bright eyes, and he clenched his teeth tightly:

"Prince, if you can let the prince go, in the future, you will be in my hands..."

Ge Jiang's irritable eyes flashed a gleam, and he sneered: "You?"

Ce'an lowered his eyes, slowly released the bow and arrow in his hand, and lowered his arms:

"Yes, I"

Li Heng was terrified. He ignored the pain in his wound and approached Ce'an. His eyes were red and swollen. He swallowed his tears and said anxiously:

"Ce'an, are you crazy? You don't even listen to me? Get out of here!"

How could he allow the person he had protected for so long to be humiliated in the slightest?

Perhaps Ce'an is the person he used to be. Protecting Ce'an means protecting the helpless him who once was.

Or maybe he just wanted to protect Ce'an without any selfish motives! That was the only faint but bright light in his life.
