Is the target of the strategy darkened? Then die again

Qin Yili's health was getting worse day by day, but he still acted vigorously and resolutely in the court, promulgating many taxes that overwhelmed the people.

Some of the ministers who relied on their status as veterans to remonstrate were taken to the execution ground, and some had their homes confiscated and exiled.

Gradually, rumors spread that it would be better to be under the control of the Beiyuan Emperor than to let the current Southern Emperor reign.

Knowing that he was planning to sacrifice his reputation so that he could rule the southern territory openly, Lin Ziye was powerless to stop him.

Until he accidentally bumped into Lin Yichen.

The gentle and handsome young master half a year ago has become cold and unapproachable. He looked at Lin Ziye coldly: "You just don't do anything?"

Facing him, jealousy crawled on his heart like weeds. Lin Ziye's eyes were as cold as his: "Then what did you do!"

"..."

Both of them had known Qin Yili since they were young. They knew his temper well and knew that no one else could change the decisions he made.

His straight back became rickety. He glanced at Lin Ziye, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Lin Ziye stopped him, with unpredictable danger flowing in his eyes: "What agreement does he have with the Southern Emperor?"

Without looking back, Lin Yichen slowly told what he heard from Lin Qingping, and then combined it with some things he found out to come up with the truth.

"Seven years ago, His Majesty accidentally learned the truth hidden by the late Emperor. He originally wanted to pretend that he didn't know, but because he wanted to protect you, he had to blackmail the late Emperor with the secret."

He paused for a moment when he said this: "The late emperor was furious and ordered people to drown him in the hot spring pool."

Lin Ziye remembered how strange he was by the hot spring pool. It turned out to be like this...

"Although His Majesty survived by chance, he was poisoned when he was assassinated."

Lin Yichen pinched the sleeves of his robe tightly: "But the late emperor forced His Majesty to take it. He used the secret method of the southern region to alleviate the attack of the poison, but he had to suffer the pain of heart erosion every month during the full moon. His Majesty has been in frail health for many years."

"Your Majesty is unable to resist, and I have to protect your life, so I have to compromise step by step, but you..." After saying the resentment hidden in his heart, Lin Yichen turned around, with mockery in his eyes: "Force him That’s it!”

It's him……?

If not to save him, Qin Yili would not reveal the truth he knew.

If it weren't for him to return to Beiyuan, Qin Yili would not be forced to take the lead.

If it weren't for him to take charge of the southern territory, Qin Yili would not stop until he vomited blood.

Those thoughts that were hidden deep in the darkness were brought to light.

Lin Yichen wanted to take the opportunity to tell His Majesty everything he had been burdened with, but thinking that His Majesty was unwilling to show his pain so far in order to hide Lin Ziye, he swallowed his words again.

"Well done."

Lin Ziye stood there in a daze for a long time, his eyes empty and unable to reflect anything.

That figure looked a lot depressed for no reason.

……

Even with the medicine prepared by Xu Weizhi, Qin Yili's body continued to decline day by day until the ninth day.

Opening his eyes, he was confused for a while, then slowly touched the side.

The hand was grabbed.

Feeling the familiar body temperature, he chuckled and asked, "Why don't you light the lamp?"

"..."

After a moment of pause, Lin Ziye's voice sounded depressed and heavy: "Wait a minute."

The smile on Qin Yili's face slowly faded, and he asked softly: "I can't see my eyes."

"It's okay, I'll go find Xu Weizhi."

Pulling his sleeve, Qin Yili wanted to look at his position, but couldn't see anything. He pretended to cover it up by tilting his head unintentionally: "Maybe it's just that I got up early in the morning, maybe it will be fine after a while. "

He didn't want to be alone in this darkness.

In Lin Ziye's field of vision, he could see Qin Yili shaking slightly, with a look of panic on his face.

Yes……

Because you can't see it anymore, can't you even hide your emotions?

Thinking this way, pain appeared on Junyi's face.

But his voice was steady: "Okay, I'll accompany you."

Squeezing open the gap bit by bit with his fingers, Qin Yili tentatively found the right position and inserted his fingers completely.

He rubbed the lines on his hand with his fingertips.

For a moment, the condensed and sad atmosphere was relieved a lot by his childish actions.

Lin Ziye also adjusted his posture so that he could easily reach anywhere on his body.

This warmth lasted until Shunde's voice sounded outside.

"Your Majesty, it's time for morning court."

There was still darkness in front of him.

Lin Ziye just sat up and wanted Shunde to cancel today's morning meeting, but when he moved, Qin Yili clung to his arm as if frightened.

"..."

Shocked that his behavior had gone too far, Qin Yili quickly let go of Lin Ziye's arm and forced himself to smile: "I'm fine... I just..."

He didn't want Ziye to worry.

But the words stuck in his mouth for some reason.

Urging himself in his heart and forcing himself not to be weak, Qin Yili raised his face and imagined smiling like before.

but--

When a beauty sheds tears, it is most heartbreaking.

His face, which was already stunning in appearance, is now as thin as the size of a palm, and the ends of his narrow eyes have become oval as a result. His weeping look makes him look like a rabbit with no attack power, which makes people want to See the tears falling from those beautiful eyes.

Lin Ziye looked panicked.

He had never seen such a weak and bully His Highness.

Even when they reunited, he still dealt with him with ease.

"I won't go."

But at this time, this was the only thing he could say.

Knowing that he was about to die, he should not tie Lin Ziye to his side anymore, but after hearing his words, Qin Yili still felt despicable joy in his heart.

"I……"

He despised himself like this, but he couldn't bear the struggle in his heart.

"I don't want to leave."

The expression on his face, invisible to the eyes, was obvious.

Lin Ziye, whose voice was so soft that it could make water drop, made everyone in Beiyuan wonder if he had been snatched away.

"How about not going to court today?"

Qin Yili, who was bewitched by Lin Ziye, nodded obediently.

Shunde outside the hall shouted twice more.

Lin Ziye asked: "Let Shunde come in?"

Qin Yili shook his head. He didn't want to see anyone except Lin Ziye now.

"Then ignore him."

Shunde was a smart man and knew what to do even when he knew they wouldn't respond in the palace.

as predicted.

Shunde stopped shouting and walked out lightly.

Qin Yili, who had never done anything like this before, looked at Lin Ziye with bright eyes: "Shunde is really gone."

He has been given responsibilities since he was a child, and he has never done a 'bad' thing so innocently, from hearing the shocking news as a teenager to making plans with his life as a young man.

"Ah."

Holding back the sourness in his heart, Lin Ziye tried to keep his tone calm: "When I was a child, I did something wrong and didn't want to be punished by my mother, so I hid in the closet and waited until everyone left before I came out."

"Huh? Then she won't be angry?"

"No, she punished me to copy the scriptures ten times." Lin Ziye's voice was filled with emotion when talking about these things: "I didn't understand my mother's conscience before, and I secretly complained that she was too harsh."

Pictured in his mind the image of Lin Ziye angrily copying scriptures as a child, Qin Yili regretted that they were already young men when they met.

He suddenly asked: "What is Xu Weizhi doing?"

Not sure why he suddenly mentioned Xu Weizhi, Lin Ziye thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he is developing new drugs."

Xu Weizhi rarely left his medicine house.

Usually when he is not developing new drugs, he is watching the records of difficult and complicated diseases in the hospital.

Recently, I have gained a new hobby of testing drugs on people.

"Let's go play with him~~"

Qin Yili showed a bright smile without any gloom.

Lin Ziye was very happy that he could regain his energy, but if this recovery was because of another man, his mood would no longer be so happy.

"it is good."

What Lin Ziye didn't expect was that he meant "playing" like this.

Xu Weizhi, who was concentrating on brewing new medicine, was recording while watching the heat in the stove.

A faint old voice came from behind: "Xiao Weizhi, you are practicing poison again——"

These familiar words made Xu Weizhi reflexively throw the things in his hands into the stove, destroying the corpses and removing traces: "It was an accident, not poison..."

Wait, isn’t the old Valley Master dead?

Xu Weizhi turned his head suddenly when he realized something was wrong.

What he saw was Qin Yili, who was holding his stomach and laughing exaggeratedly, and Lin Ziye, who was standing next to him and trying to hold back his laughter.

Xu Weizhi: "..."

"Qin Yili, you and I are irreconcilable!!"

They are indeed at odds with each other.
