crime of heart

It was night, the wind was strong, and the blizzard did not stop all night.And the feast in the hall also lasted all night without a break.

He did his best to accompany the imperial envoy to drink all night, even if he was as generous as Ji Ning, he was already too drunk.Ran Chen was too drunk, leaning on Long Ye's shoulder, he could hardly stand up. 7

"Where is General Ji going?" He muttered, "What are you fussing about? I'll ask Tatsuno to clean up a room for you, so you can sleep here."

"No need." Ji Ning staggered, pushing away Ji Xiang, a soldier who came to help him, "Ask your chief guard to give me a ride." 1

Ran Chen waved his hand, Long Ye carefully supported him to sit down, and then followed Ji Ning into the wind and snow.After walking a few steps, looking around for no one, Ji Ning stopped,

"Did you bring Bai Qingyan back to the room?"

"General, he refused to go back and insisted on kneeling outside."

"What?" Ji Ning growled, "You told me he wouldn't? Tatsuno, when did you dispose of the slave for me, and you still have to listen to that slave's opinion?"

"Of course there's no need to clean up the slaves. But you, General, know very well that Bai Qingyan is different."

"Presumptuous! Tatsuno, you are talking nonsense and don't listen to orders?"

"General, I finished burning the charcoal stove in your room, and I explained to Bai Qingyan that if he couldn't take it anymore, he could go in and rest at any time. But he is such a person, if he pressures him, something might happen. So I talent……"

"Tatsuno, what did he say to you? That kind of person—and 'what kind of person'?"

"he……"

Tatsuno hesitated for a moment.The situation just now was vividly reflected in his mind.

……

Not long ago.

A hundred feet away from the main hall, Bai Qingyan was lying on the ground without moving for an hour.

Kneeling until late at night, he finally lost his strength and fell on the snow.After that, I no longer had the strength to get up.The heavy snow accumulated a thick layer on his body, almost covering his whole body.If the snow on the nose and mouth hadn't been melted to form a small pit by the heat, no one would think that there was a living person here.

But Bai Qingyan was indeed still alive.He was just too weak to move.He already had a fever, and after being in the ice and snow for several hours, the fever persisted even more.

When footsteps sounded, Bai Qingyan reluctantly raised her head to take a look.That person was not Ji Ning.

"General Ji sent me a message. Bai Qingyan, you can go."

Bai Qingyan didn't move.He is still waiting for the next text.But there is no more text.Tatsuno didn't mention those Yuyao people, let alone clothes or food.

"Bai Qingyan, General Ji also said that if you don't leave, I will tie you into his room and wait for him to come back for interrogation." Long Ye knelt down and looked directly at Bai Qingyan, "But I don't want to do that."

Bai Qingyan still didn't move.

"If you kneel down again, you're going to die."

"Then let me die." 10

"But I don't want you to die. Bai Qingyan, when you recover, let's have a fight." 1

"what?"

Faced with this sudden contract, Bai Qingyan was really surprised.Tatsuno's expression remained indifferent,

"I heard that when General Ji captured you, you were at the end of your strength and unable to resist. Before that, you fought against nearly a thousand cavalry by yourself. Bai Qingyan, since you are Yuyao's strongest God of War, I will naturally give you a chance. Tang Tangzheng was defeated by my strongest warrior in Langye."

Bai Qingyan shook her head slowly.

"You're wrong. I didn't stand in front of the city gate of Tudu City to keep my title as God of War." Having said that, he smiled slightly.Tatsuno seemed to see a soft light in his eyes,

"I am here to protect my people." 12

"..."

"If I can still hold the sword, I will use the sword to protect them. If I can't hold the sword, I can kneel here and protect them. If I can't do anything... I can also use this life, Go die with them."

Long Ye's expression changed.he asked softly,

"Aren't you afraid of death?" 1

"Death is not the scariest thing. Seeing someone you care about die in front of you is. General Long Ye, if I really die, I only ask you for one thing - please throw my body outside Tudu City .Don't let General Ji see it, and don't let my Yuyao people see it. Okay?"
