"Just playing casually? You said it lightly. You came back like this, are you sure that I will let you go?" Murong Fenglin tried to break the calmness on Xi Ye's face, he hated that feeling.Why can he do this, after he has experienced so much pain, why can he still have such a state of mind, and he has got everything he wants, but what remains in his heart is only fear?

"How dare I have such extravagant hopes." Xi Ye replied honestly.If he hadn't been really tired, the current Lingyuan City would be a sea of ​​flames, and he would walk towards the imperial city with the blood of thousands of people, mocking this person who is now showing his power in front of his eyes, making him kneel down and apologize to himself .

But... what is there to apologize for?He has always understood the rules of survival in the imperial city, but it was only after Yun Che came that he used them to the fullest.

Murong Fenglin couldn't help laughing at Xi Ye in his heart, he was indeed an idiot, he had to give up the throne for Yun Che's sake, because he caught his pain point.Now he has been thinking hard and planning hard for five years. Originally, he was sure of winning and could force himself to surrender without any effort, but he gave up his biggest bargaining chip for the sake of Qingcheng, so he gave up the easy-to-get throne.

Such infatuation almost moved him.

"Would you believe me if I said let you go?"

Murong Xiye finally opened his eyes slowly, his eyes were full of exhaustion.He looked into Murong Fenglin's eyes, and sneered, "Why not?"

why not?I can't guess the ending yet, so I would rather believe in Qingcheng's promise to me.Even... Even if I can't get to that step in the end, maybe my heart has already forgiven everything.Since when did you stop caring?

Probably... that winter day, when two sedan chairs collided, he stepped down and opened the curtain of the other sedan chair.

"Then you can wait, Xi Ye. I know I owe you something. So, I will make it up to you." Murong Feng stood up, the cold and damp dungeon already made him feel a little uncomfortable, and he didn't want to stay any longer.Xi Ye just sat quietly without saluting, so he didn't care anymore.

He walked out of the dark passage, and when he reached the exit, he took a long breath.Or the outside air is good.

The traitor bowed his head on his own initiative, and the people of Yunguo settled down again.The conversations in the streets and alleys are still inevitably full of King Ye.It's all mocking him for being so self-indulgent.

Qingcheng also listened.smile.He didn't expect that even if he didn't take Lian Xiruo away, he would fight to the death.But he didn't really hold on, he just came back and left with his captors so peacefully.Waiting for Murong Fenglin to judge him.

When Murong Xiye left that night, Qingcheng clearly saw that he was heading towards the imperial palace, and he deliberately followed, but the figure only stopped at the gate of the imperial city for a while before turning back.

He actually gave up in the end.Because his promise was obviously a lie, he chose to believe it.Or, trick yourself into believing it.Let go of the country that is at your fingertips.He is for himself.

Or... what about this face?

When the door of the cold palace was opened, Lian Xiruo didn't know where he would go.She was groomed by several young maids, and supported by Viola, she stepped out of the cold palace gate for the first time in more than 20 years.She found that everything in the harem was still the same.But things have changed for a long time.

She was taken all the way to Qingyuan Hall, where a strange man sat on the throne.Seeing her, he suddenly smiled, "Until now, I don't know what to call you. You no longer have the status of father, emperor and concubine. I'd be happy to call you Aunt Lian, how about it?"

"The emperor is too flattering to me. I'm just a crazy woman in the cold palace, how can I bear it?" She wasn't dumb anymore.Although her voice was slightly hoarse, she was still able to speak, which surprised Murong Fenglin.She had been deaf and dumb in front of Xi Ye for so many years, but she didn't want her son to hate her any more, right?

"I want you to meet someone."

As soon as the words were said, someone came in from outside the hall, and it was already a person with white hair on his temples, but it was the face he had seen thousands of times when he dreamed back at midnight.

"Xi Ruo." A choked up soft call made her heart ache.

Murong Fenglin didn't give them any more time. He was condescending and majestic, "Yang Yi, I will not only give you a chance to make up for your mistakes, but I can also hand over Aunt Lian to you to make your marriage a reality. Don't be too busy Thank you, I also have conditions, I want you to hand over your military power and return to your hometown on your own. What do you think?"

"The criminal is willing." Naturally, there is no other thought, and there will be no more.He thought that he would be played by Murong Xiye all the time, and even become his accomplice in plundering the throne. He didn't know if he would see Xiruo in the future.Now that the wish has been fulfilled, it can be said that there is no regret in this life, and there is nothing else to ask for.

"Okay! When your daughter comes back, I will also find a good family for her, so as to relieve your worries."

Just like that, Lian Xiruo followed Yang Yi out of the palace. We haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, but we don't talk much.Most of the time, they just looked at each other silently, with tears in their eyes.

"You have suffered." Yang Yi didn't know what to say, and he knew that the conditions in the cold palace were difficult.

"It's not bitter." Lian Xiruo was just indifferent.She has long been used to it.But there was another worry in my heart. "I don't know what will happen to Xi Ye. I'm afraid he will be given to death."

Yang Yi was displeased, "What do you want him to do! He could have picked you up, but he was only thinking of rebelling against him, regardless of your life. Do you still worry about such a person?"

"You don't know. All the faults are mine. If I hadn't obstructed him, he would have been the current emperor long ago." Lian Xiruo grabbed the hem of his clothes, and traces of the brand-new clothes were abruptly pulled out.

The dungeon seemed to be reserved for him alone.It was deserted, with no one to talk to.So when there was movement outside again, Xi Ye couldn't help but look up.Then his expression changed.

He was very stingy even uttering the word "scroll".

"Xi Ye. How are you? Are you injured?" Lian Xiruo knelt down outside the cell and looked at his son who was locked inside. He looked extremely haggard, and he didn't have the domineering feeling when he was in the cold palace.She still likes Xi Ye like that, because in that case, at least he can live a good life.

Murong Xiye desperately covered his mouth, but still laughed out loud.It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous.He had always thought that the person who would be locked up forever and needed to be visited by himself would be Lian Xiruo, but now he turned around.He became the one who was locked up, and she was outside the cell, looking at him with pity, and asking him, how are you?

He laughed almost maniacally, attracting the guards outside.They saw the man in the prison covering his mouth and laughing, his face was full of tears, and the woman outside was also in tears, and asked foolishly, "Xi Ye, do you want to hate me forever?"

"Not enough, not enough!!" He still smiled, which could be heard far away outside the dungeon.

King Ye is crazy.

This statement spread from the dungeon to the palace, and then to Lingyuan City.
