"Young master, you... this is the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Yun Nian's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe that these words came from the mouth of her son.

Wen Xing chuckled nonchalantly, and said, "If you don't tell me, who would know? His Royal Highness has been trying to teach the Third Prince a lesson for a long time. Even if they say they didn't do it, do you think His Highness will believe it?" Is it?"

Yun Nian opened her mouth to argue, but found that she had nothing to say.After following Wen Xing for so many years, he couldn't bear to hear such remarks suddenly from the son who had always taught him to be loyal to the emperor.

Wen Xing coughed a few times, waved away the hand that Yun Nian extended out of concern, and said, "Yun Nian, from today onwards you will no longer be my servant."

Hearing this, Yun Nian's hand froze.

Afraid of scaring him, Wen Xing did not pause for too long, and continued: "I have arranged a new identity and residence for you. From now on, you will be a free individual and will no longer be attached to anyone."

The implication is to turn Yun Nian from a domestic slave back to an ordinary citizen.

However, Yun Nian didn't seem very happy. He frowned and asked, "What should you do, young master? You are still injured, and Yun Nian can't leave you alone."

"It won't take long for such a small injury." Wen Xing still knew his own strength very well, and signaled Yun Nian not to worry.

"Living in the palace all year round will greatly limit your vision. I don't want to see your talents being wasted. After you go out, you can go wherever you want. I will provide you with unconditional financial support for half a year. After that, I will no longer care about your life or death."

Wen Xing spoke out his arrangements slowly, regardless of Yun Nian's hesitation and entanglement.

"Of course, if you don't want to come back in the future, I won't force you, but it depends on your will. If you meet again by fate, don't call me son, just call me by my name—Kemeng, Wenkemeng." .”

Up to this point, Yun Nian knew that she couldn't change Wen Xing's plan, so she stood by the bed without saying a word.

Wen Xing was not in a hurry, and quietly waited for him to express his opinion.

After a long time, Yun Nian finally made up his mind, knelt down in front of Wen Xing's bed, and kowtowed gently.

"Yun Nian thanked the young master for his great kindness."

Wen Xing stared at Yun Nian's body that was thinner than his, pulled out a gentle smile, and said weakly: "Okay, get up. You pack up your things and leave early tomorrow. The next time we meet, we will be just friends. Not master and servant."

"But Yun Nian still wants to wait until the young master recovers from his injury before leaving." Yun Nian stood up and straightened his clothes, with a reluctant expression on his face.

He was rescued by Wen Yu since he was a child, and has served Wen Xing for many years since then. He has long been used to this kind of life, and he never thought about regaining his freedom.

Wen Xing shook his head and chuckled, and said: "No. The sooner you leave, the more helpful it will be for you. Besides, I live in the palace anyway, so nothing will happen to this injury. Or are you blaming me? Arbitrary decision?"

The last sentence obviously expressed Wen Xing's attitude of "not negotiable", Yun Nian couldn't help it, and finally cared about Wen Xing for a few words before turning his head and leaving, ready to pack up his things.

As Yun Nian's figure left little by little, the smile in Wen Xing's eyes gradually faded.

"Squeak."

The sound of closing the door fell, and Wen Xing completely took off his disguise, rubbing his temples wearily.

After a long while, he straightened his clothes, endured the pain, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, walked barefoot to the window and looked at the still clear blue sky.

In fact, he didn't want to let Yun Nian leave so early, but he always had a bad feeling in his heart.He always felt that something big would happen in the next few years.Before that, he had to let Yun Nian find a relatively safe environment.

The originally vast and boundless sky was cut off by the towering city wall, Wen Xing watched from afar, thinking about the future of himself and Wen's.

In less than half a year, there would be battle reports from across the border, in which his brother had died for the country, and his father had fallen ill from grief.The status of their family also plummeted after that, from a family respected by everyone to an ordinary family relying on Yaoer Guanjue to survive.

However, it was Emperor Anlong who appointed Wen Yu as a general at the beginning, and with Wen Xing's current status, it was really difficult to reverse these things.

He sighed deeply, lost in thought.

The night fell quietly, and Wen Xing didn't know how long he stood by the window, until someone behind him suddenly put a thin coat on him.

"Why are you up? You are still injured, go back and lie down."

The visitor was exactly Xie Yi who said he would come to see him tonight.

Wen Xing withdrew his thoughts, pursed his thin lips lightly, turned sideways to avoid Xie Yi's hand that wanted to help him straighten his clothes, and said while walking back, "Your Highness, I'm sorry."

Xie Yi was not annoyed by his indifferent back, but frowned when he saw his bare feet stepping on the cold ground.

"Why don't you wear shoes? Even though it's late spring, it's very cold at night, why don't you love yourself so much?"

As he said that, Xie Yi walked up behind Wen Xing in three steps and two steps, and picked him up.

Wen Xing cried out in surprise and was about to struggle, but in the end he pulled the wound again, and said in embarrassment: "Your Highness, let me down!"

"Okay, put it right away." Xie Yi responded, strode to the side of the bed, then carefully put him down and sat down, and then carefully covered him with the quilt.

Wen Xing, who was disturbed by Xie Yi's hug, didn't pay attention to the seriousness in Xie Yi's eyes, and turned his head as if he wanted to find a hole to get in.

He is a majestic big man, but he is hugged by a young man who is three years younger than him, what a shame!

It's also fortunate that there is no one else here, otherwise he would have to lose someone to death.

A blush of shame and anger climbed up Wen Xing's pale cheeks, which was particularly eye-catching.

However, seeing his appearance, Xie Yi quickly stretched out his hand to touch his forehead, afraid that he might catch a cold and get sick. "I don't seem to have a fever, why is my face so red?"

With a flash in Wen Xing's eyes, he subconsciously reached out to touch the bracelet, lowered his head uncomfortably, his long black eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings.

"No, it's all right. Your Highness, why are you here to see me?"

Xie Yi didn't think too much, and said with a smile: "Gu heard from Yun Nian that you gave him back his free body, and seeing that he is busy packing his things, I brought him dinner here."

As he spoke, he pointed to the table not far away, and there was indeed a food box on it.

Wen Xing pursed his lips lightly, and said, "These Highnesses can order their servants to do it."

Xie Yi smiled lightly, tucked the corner of the quilt and said: "Your servant is as kind as you are to others, most of the servants in the East Palace are busy congratulating him and seeing him off. The left and right are all fine, so they came to see you in person. "

Wen Xing hadn't recovered from that hug, and couldn't detect this lame lie for a while.He lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "Then His Highness has also seen it, so it's time to go back?"

"What, is Ah Xing going to drive Gu Gu away?" Xie Yi raised his eyebrows, stretched out his slender right hand out of nowhere and lifted Wen Xing's chin, forcing him to look at him.

Wen Xing hastily stopped Xie Yi's teasing gesture, and said in a muffled voice, "The place here is small and tidy, I'm afraid it will spoil His Highness's eyes."

No matter how calm he was at first, Xie Yi couldn't bear the "exit order" issued repeatedly.He simply sat on the edge of the bed, stared straight at Wen Xing and asked, "Ah Xing, why do you hate Gu so much?"

Wen Xing was silent, turning his head away like an awkward child.

"Is Gu not good enough for you?"

Xie Yi leaned close to Wen Xing's ear and whispered in an almost coaxing voice.

The deep words sounded in his ears, Wen Xing suddenly got goosebumps all over his body, he wanted to hide but there was no way to retreat.He closed his eyes, looked into Xie Yi's eyes like broken pots, and asked: "Then can I ask, Your Highness, why are you so kind to Weichen?"

"As the son of the Wen family, I hold the military power in my family. Once I occupy a place in the court, I will definitely threaten your position."

"It's impossible for you not to know about this?"

Wen Xing's every word hits the biggest obstacle to the progress of their relationship.

Xie Yi caught the complex emotions that flashed in Wen Xing's eyes, but before he had time to think about it, he opened his mouth, but still couldn't say anything.

The matter of rebirth was too weird, his intentions were too ridiculous, and Xie Yi didn't want to deceive Wen Xing, so he couldn't find a suitable excuse for a while.

After a while, he uttered a weak sentence: "Gu can't explain it for the time being. But Gu really wants to treat you well. Would you like to believe Gu?"

Wen Xing glanced at him quietly, then turned his head again.

"……Feel sorry."

The soft words are like several thin needles, piercing into the softest part of Xie Yi's heart, unable to pull it out, unable to bear it.

After a while, he took a deep breath and asked, "Then would you like to tell Gu, why do you always have to be so alienated?"

Wen Xing didn't see Xie Yi's injury, so he answered calmly and pushed Xie Yi further into the cold ice cellar.

"Because I don't believe you."

Xie Yi's hand tightened, after all, he didn't stop Wen Xing from continuing.

"Power, money, beauty, any one thing can destroy the so-called sincerity."

"There are intrigues and deceptions in the court. Who dares to say that the people who were called brothers yesterday will be stabbed openly and secretly tomorrow?"

"Your Highness, the matter of feelings is not just talk. You are only seventeen now, and you have not experienced too many human affairs. You will understand this in the future."

"So, don't have such ridiculous thoughts anymore, it will only block your road to emperor."

Wen Xing's every word punishes his heart, but it is not unreasonable.

Xie Yi clenched his hands into fists, lowered his head to cover up all his emotions, and asked in a low voice, "What about Fei Qing? And Xie Lian and Xie Qing, why do you trust them but not Gu?"

"Because they are different from you." Wen Xing replied quickly, "You are the prince, the future emperor. The greatest power, the most money, the best beauty, which one is not yours? Excuse me, but I I really don’t think you can maintain your so-called sincerity by then.”

Xie Yi suddenly raised his head, stared at Wen Xing fixedly, and asked, "If you don't try, why do you think you can't do it?"

As soon as the words fell, Wen Xing suddenly smiled, and in that smile was a sadness that Xie Yi couldn't understand.

why?

Because, he has tried it.

He couldn't afford to try it a second time.
