you let go

There are indeed many interesting places in Yingzhou, and Baili Jinyang has fallen, and now there is nothing to do, and everyone has hope in their eyes. Baili Jiyue sat in that position, which is what everyone expects.

Everyone felt relaxed in their hearts. Although there was a decadent atmosphere over Yingzhou, everyone believed that the cloud would eventually dissipate.

There is a small hillside in Yingzhou that is neither high nor low. If you climb to the top, although you will not have a glimpse of the majestic momentum of the small mountains, you will have a unique view.

From top to bottom, the entire Yingzhou City can be seen. Standing on a high place, the scorching sun melts gold, and the vegetation is lush.

Luo Zhu's body did not recover, but he insisted on climbing to the top himself. Baili Ji was more worried about his body, and tried to help him or carry him many times, but Luo Zhu refused.

In the past, he could leap over a mountain with a single movement of spiritual power, but now his dantian has been abolished, and he has become a mortal for the first time. Just climbing a mountain makes him very fresh.

Although Luo Zhu's face was pale, he was full of energy, perhaps he was focused elsewhere, and he didn't feel the pain.

Baili Jiyue stared at Luo Zhu's face, and sighed imperceptibly.

Luo Zhu didn't pay attention to Baili Jiyue, he was completely attracted by the magnificent scenery at the moment.

The planning of Yingzhou is very square and standardized. Whether it is the main roads or official roads, they are all straight and straight, extending from north to south, and from east to west.A central axis splits the entire Yingzhou in half. Large and small buildings are arranged on both sides. They are usually not visible in the lower places. Only when you have a bird's-eye view can you really appreciate the rigorous and almost harsh cultural atmosphere of Yingzhou.

Baili Jiyue stood beside Luo Zhu, and said, "Yingzhou is an ancient city, standing proudly in the east of Haoyue Continent thousands of years ago."

It's very strange, obviously he is about to sit on this great country, and all of this will belong to him alone. When he climbs high and looks far away, what arouses is not his heart that has been shocked for a long time, but the kind of desolation and confusion, with a few Very confused and helpless loneliness.

So what if he had the throne, he wasn't alone.

At this time, Baili Jiyue was actually a little loose. If he really left with Luo Zhu, it would be possible...

As soon as this idea came up, he poured cold water on his head.

How can it be?

The country is still there, and the border barbarians are about to move. This country needs a leader too much.

When the country is in danger and the family is in trouble, he chooses to be a hero. He has no position and is not qualified to retreat.

He traveled hundreds of miles and deserved to be alone all his life.

There was still some childishness on Luo Zhu's face, but this childishness was no longer obvious under the pale complexion.

Standing here, he suddenly felt his heart open up, but even if he opened up, it couldn't open his heart.

He just couldn't figure out why Baili Jiyue rejected him.

He knew what Baili Jiyue was worried about. The fate of the two of them was different, and the paths they took were completely different. There were too many differences between the two of them, and this relationship was too fragile. Maybe something went wrong somewhere in the long river of time. Then crashes across the board.

Baili Jiyue said that his life expectancy has increased by one hundred years, and now it has passed one-third. He is afraid that he is just a passer-by in Luo Zhu's long life. All gone.

Luo Zhu is just a few decades at the flick of a finger, but Baili Jiyue has devoted his whole life.

Luo Zhu's heart sank little by little, and finally sank into the bottomless sea, not even a single bubble could come out.

The majestic and splendid scenery at this moment can no longer arouse his half interest.

Baili Jiyue sensed Luo Zhu's loss, he pretended not to see the loss in Luo Zhu's eyes, and said, "Tired?"

Luo Zhu's good mood disappeared at that moment, he cast a forbearing glance at Baili Jiyue, closed his eyes and tried to calm down his mood.

After a long time, he opened his eyes with a cold expression: "I'm a little tired, where are we going next?"

Baili Jiyue took Luo Zhu almost to turn around the whole Yingzhou City. Luo Zhu was in a waning mood, not as excited as he was at the beginning. He just sat in the carriage sleepily, heard the destination, and then raised his head , got off the car, took a stroll around the destination, and after a short walk, Luo Zhu's mood became even worse.

Baili Jiyue was a little anxious, but he didn't show anything on the surface. He looked up at the crescent moon rising in the east, and moved closer to Luo Zhu: "The night market is coming up soon, do you want something to eat?"

Luo Zhu was not in the mood and shook his head.

Baili Jiyue said: "The night market is very lively, and you can put river lanterns at night."

Hearing the word "He Deng", Luo Zhu's eyes lit up for a moment, his whole body finally regained some vitality, and he finally changed from his initial depression, put down his mind for the time being, and prepared to follow Baili Jiyue to the night market.

Baili Jiyue was right, the night market was the busiest place in Dayin that was devastated by the war.

All kinds of snacks and grocery stores are hung with bright red lanterns, swaying in the breeze, forming a flickering long dragon, roaring and winding forward.

Luo Zhu got out of the carriage, and the others didn't even look at it, and went straight to the place where the river lantern was set.

Baili Jiyue had no reason to refuse, but followed him closely, fearing that he would get lost.

They didn't bring guards with them this time, because they were afraid of attracting attention, but because Luo Zhu said they only wanted him to accompany them.

Under the night, the surface of the lake is as flat as a mirror, and the silver moon hangs upside down, falling on the water-drenched waves.

Some children were setting off river lanterns, squatting on the bank while laughing and shouting, carefully protecting the small piece of candle with their hands, making some secret little wish in their hearts, perhaps hoping that their father and mother would have more Buy them some sweets, and maybe make a wish that A Niu next door will stop bullying him.

Following the example of the children, Luo Zhu squatted down and folded a lotus lantern. After lighting it up, he closed his eyes and murmured something, and then carefully put the lotus lantern into the water, for fear that the lantern would turn over before it entered the water. His wish was directly strangled by the heavens.

Baili Ji was more afraid that he would be squeezed down by people coming and going, so he stood beside him silently, his eyes fell on the lotus lantern, his expression seemed a little deep.

When he was done, Luo Zhu was about to get up, but he didn't know whether his body was too weak, or because he squatted for a long time, all the blood flowed to his brain, and the moment he got up, his eyes turned black.

He didn't stand firm, and fell backwards when the soles of his feet gave way.

Baili Jiyue quickly grabbed his wrist with one hand, and rushed up quickly, using him as a humanoid cushion for Luo Zhu.

Luo Zhu was in a trance, feeling that his wrist was being painfully clenched by a hand like iron pliers. He hissed, and when the dizziness dissipated, he crashed into Bailijiyue's deep pool. Eye.

Baili Jiyue seemed to realize his gaffe, and immediately let go of Luo Zhu's wrist.

Luo Zhu, however, seemed to see some hope, held Baili Jiyue's hand behind his back, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, do you know what I wished just now?"

Baili Jiyue looked away a little, and said, "If you say your wish, it won't work."

"If it doesn't work, it won't work," Luo Zhu smiled, "Anyway, this wish will never come true no matter what."

Baili Jiyue felt his throat tighten for a while.

Luo Zhu said: "I hope that Baili Jiyue will agree to go back to Xuanyue Poison Sect with me."

As soon as these words came out, both of them fell silent.

Luo Zhu also felt that his wish was extremely absurd, and smiled embarrassingly: "If you can't say it, the result will be the same."

But Baili Jiyue felt that his heart was instantly strangled by a hand, and even breathing was a bit difficult at that moment.

The warm orange light in the distance is bright and warm, and the moonlight is quiet and long, but Luo Zhu knows that these have nothing to do with the two of them.

But he still didn't give up and asked: "Your Highness, can I kiss you?"

Baili Jiyue reacted immediately, broke away from his hand, and took a step back.

Luo Zhu's eyes became blank at that moment, he lowered his head in disappointment, then raised his head again, showing a forced smile: "Haha... just kidding, I'm a little hungry, take me back, Your Highness , my master will come to pick me up tomorrow morning."

When he uttered the last few words, he trembled a little at the end, obviously about to cry.

Baili Jiyue moved his eyes elsewhere, and said: "Go back to the palace, it's getting late, you need to take medicine, or your body won't be able to hold on."

Luo Zhu reluctantly opened the corner of his mouth, and let out a "hmm".

The road back to the palace was silent and long, occasionally there were a few low reprimands from the coachman, and the atmosphere between the two of them was awkward and silent.

Luo Zhu was thinking almost all the way, how did he and Baili Jiyue get to this point, and when the final moment of parting came, he didn't even have any warm memories between them.

Except for that initial glimpse in the Weeping Woods.Nothing else remains.

Luo Zhu leaned against the wall of the carriage lonely, the corners of his eyes slightly wet.

Luo Zhu stayed up all night, and when the morning light first rose, he opened the door and walked out.

Baili Jiyue was still busy reviewing the memorial, Luo Zhu wanted to see him one last time, and ordered the little eunuch to lead him to him.

The little eunuch didn't dare to disobey, after all, he was someone His Royal Highness An ordered to take good care of.

Luo Zhu found Baili Jiyue in the imperial study.

Baili Jiyue was obviously absent-minded, and he didn't even notice that Zhu Modi was on the memorial.

"Your Highness..." Luo Zhu called softly.

Baili Jiyue didn't respond.

Luo Zhu yelled again, Baili Jiyue came back to his senses, looked up and met Luo Zhu's eyes.

"Your Highness, I'm leaving, can you see me off?"

The two walked side by side, walking along the square bricks.

The two of them seem to have a tacit understanding, the frequency and size of their steps are exactly the same, and neither of them is willing to speak first to break the deadly silence.

Wu Moyu waited outside the palace gate, Baili Jiyue didn't leave after leaving the harem.

Luo Zhu turned to look at him suspiciously.

Baili Jiyue: "May your future be bright."

Luo Zhu took a deep breath: "Your Highness, it's not over yet, why don't you give me another ride."

Baili Jiyue had no reason to refuse, so he continued to move forward without saying a word.

The two were silent, Luo Zhu didn't take the medicine in the morning, his face was as pale as paper, and the severe pain in his dantian haunted him again.

Luo Zhu laughed at himself: "Your Highness, as long as you speak, I can stay right now and not go any further."

Baili Jiyue looked up subconsciously, and saw the majestic palace gate, and Luo Zhu's master was waiting outside.

Baili Jiyue knew what Luo Zhu was waiting for, and this was the last chance Luo Zhu gave him.
