Stranger and Chen in the Palace

Ling Yihao led the man back to his tent, Li Quan saw that his face was cloudy and uncertain, and knew that something must have gone wrong, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions at the moment, so he could only follow cautiously.

As soon as Ling Yihao returned to the camp, he saw Xue Jingting and the others rushing over.

It was early in the morning when they arrived, and the first ray of dawn on Qishan Mountain, with the rising sun, Xue Zimo's heart became colder and colder, and running around all night made his face as white as paper.

As soon as they arrived, they went directly into Ling Yihao's camp, but they didn't expect that there was no one there, and they were about to go out to look for him when they saw Ling Yihao walking in from outside.

"Zimo..." Seeing Xue Zimo approaching, Ling Yihao was overjoyed, and the gloom on his face disappeared.

Ling Yize asked anxiously: "Brother Second Emperor, how is Brother Third Emperor?"

Ling Yihao glanced at him, then turned his eyes to Xue Zimo again, and said softly, "Why are you here?"

"Where's Your Highness the Third?" Xue Zimo looked at him fixedly.

Ling Yihao's heart tightened: "You came here for him too?"

Xue Zimo still asked mechanically: "Where is the Third Highness?"

Ling Yihao looked at him for a while, his eyes were a little sad: "I never thought he could make you so interested."

Ling Yize listened to him talking for a long time without getting to the point, and was extremely anxious on the sidelines.Xue Jingting calmed down. Judging from the attitude of the Second Highness, Ling Yichen is probably fine.

Xue Zimo pursed his lips, as if he didn't want to get entangled in this issue, Ling Yihao looked at him, and a self-deprecating smile slowly rose from the corner of his mouth: "He's fine, the queen mother has let him go back to the tent."

"Really?" Ling Yize was pleasantly surprised, but then couldn't believe it, "You won't lie to us, will you?"

"You'll know if you go and see for yourself." Ling Yihao's voice turned cold in vain.

One sentence reminded Ling Yize, he turned around and ran out, turning his head while running and shouting: "Brother Xue, hurry up, let's go see Brother Huang..."

Hearing that Ling Yichen was fine, the feeling of rejoicing spread across Xue Zimo's heart instantly, and he followed Ling Yize's pace.

As soon as Xue Zimo got out of the camp, he saw Ling Yize who had run to the front suddenly fell to the ground, and hurried to help him up, only to find that Ling Yize had passed out.

"Father, please send the Fourth Highness to the imperial doctor first, and I will go to see the Third Highness." Xue Zimo said to Xue Jingting who caught up behind him.

"Okay, leave it to me." Xue Jingting nodded.

Xue Zimo hurried to Ling Yichen's tent, there was no guard outside his tent, Xue Zimo's heart began to beat, could it be that Ling Yihao was really lying to them?

He walked into the tent anxiously, raised his eyes, and met Ling Yichen's eyes, Xue Zimo was startled, and then his hanging heart finally returned to its original position...

"Why are you here?" Ling Yichen's eyes were fixed on Xue Zimo.

Xue Zimo looked at him, secretly calmed down the breath that was disturbed by the rapid steps just now, and slowly leveled his voice, and then said: "The Fourth Highness came down to tell my father that something happened to you, Zimo...followed my father to come and have a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Yichen got up and walked towards him step by step, his steps were firm. For some reason, Xue Zimo's heart that had just let go suddenly hung up again.

Ling Yichen stood three steps in front of him, his eyes became brighter and brighter, he stared at him and said, "Are you worried about me?!" His tone of saying this seemed to be a question, but it was more like a statement.

Xue Zimo turned his head slightly, avoiding Ling Yichen's burning gaze, and remained silent.Reason told him that he should deny it, but at this moment, he couldn't open his mouth no matter what...

Suddenly, Ling Yichen pulled him into his arms and hugged him tightly. Xue Zimo's whole body stiffened like iron in an instant, his mind went blank, but Ling Yichen seemed unconscious and hugged him tighter and tighter.

After a long time, Xue Zimo felt that his thoughts began to turn again. Ling Yichen hugged him so tightly that he couldn't breathe, and he called: "Your Highness——"

Hearing the low call of the person in his arms, Ling Yichen's body trembled suddenly, but he hugged him even tighter, and an extremely suppressed and bitter voice sounded in Xue Zimo's ears: "Mo, I love you——"

Xue Zimo's body stiffened as soon as he relaxed a little. He stared blankly at Ling Yichen buried his head in his shoulder, and begged in a low voice: "Please don't reject me, please allow me to stay by your side, even if you don't like me. It's okay, just let me love you quietly, okay?"

Xue Zimo had never heard Ling Yichen speak in such a tone. The Ling Yichen he remembered was always calm but confident, so he couldn't help but sighed slightly.

Like it or not?Could it be that after this night, can he lie to himself again?

Seeing that Xue Zimo didn't respond for a long time, Ling Yichen relaxed his hand slightly, looked up at him, his slightly flickering eyes were full of nervousness, for fear that he would say any words of rejection from his mouth.But this time, Xue Zimo did not avoid his gaze, but put his arms around his waist lightly.

Ling Yichen was stunned. Ever since the incident on his birthday, he thought that Xue Zimo didn't like him. Even when Xue Zimo came to see him just now, he didn't dare to think about that.

Ling Yichen's eyes flashed, and he said in surprise and joy: "Mo, you like me too, don't you?"

Xue Zimo didn't speak, a blush slowly appeared on his face, and he lowered his head a little uncomfortably.

Ling Yichen paid close attention to his every move, saw his expression, immediately hugged him, and said excitedly: "It's okay, you don't need to say, I understand, I understand, I will wait, I will wait for you to accept it slowly I……"

"How long can you wait?" Xue Zimo asked subconsciously, his bright eyes were black and white.

Ling Yichen let go of him, looked at him very seriously, and said, "Wait until the day you don't make me wait anymore." He paused, "It doesn't matter how long."

Xue Zimo looked up at him for a long time, his beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and his heart was filled with a touch of emotion.

When the emperor woke up, he felt dizzy and bloated. Eunuch Xu whispered, "Your Majesty, are you awake?"

The emperor responded casually, and was about to ask what was going on, when he suddenly remembered the plate of venison, and asked in surprise, "Where's Chen'er?"

Eunuch Xu hurriedly replied: "The Third Highness is in his tent, but His Highness is suspected of poisoning you, and the Empress asked him to wait for you in the tent."

"It's not him—" the emperor immediately said in a deep voice.

Surprise flashed across Eunuch Xu's eyes, and he quickly lowered his head.

"Dress me, I'm going to see him."

"Yes."

Ling Yichen hugged Xue Zimo again for a while before letting him go, and said distressedly: "You are so cold..." Thinking of him galloping the horse for most of the night, Ling Yichen felt heartbroken.

Xue Zimo smiled softly: "It's okay, by the way, why did the queen help you?"

Ling Yichen shook his head: "Just as I was about to take the poison Li Quan gave me, the queen appeared to stop us and asked me to go back to the tent and wait for my father's punishment."

In fact, there was one thing Ling Yichen didn't say, he always felt that the queen would help him, and it had something to do with her meeting with the concubine mother.He didn't say it because he wanted to hide it from Xue Zimo, but it was just his guess, but the indifference of his mother and concubine to him for more than ten years has made him dare not think about it any more.

Or, is there any friendship between the queen and the concubine mother?

Xue Zimo was afraid after hearing this for a while, this time the matter was planned to be watertight, if the queen hadn't stopped it in time, then this person in front of him would never be seen again...

Seeing his worried expression, Ling Yichen held his hand lightly, and said with a smile, "I'm fine now..."

At this time, the eunuch's voice suddenly sounded outside the tent: "Your Majesty has arrived—"

The two looked at each other and went out of the tent to greet them.

Seeing that Ling Yichen was safe and sound with his own eyes, the emperor was completely relieved: "Chen'er, it's good that you're fine."

"I'm worried about my father and emperor." Ling Yichen said.

The emperor patted him on the shoulder, sighed, looked at Xue Zimo next to him and said, "Are you here too?"

Xue Zimo said respectfully, "Zimo came with his father."

The emperor nodded: "Xue Qing really has a heart, what about others?"

It was only then that Xue Zimo remembered Ling Yize's fainting, and hurriedly said: "The Fourth Highness fainted just now, and my father sent him to the imperial doctor."

"Cainted?" Ling Yichen and the emperor frowned at the same time.

"Yes, His Royal Highness, who traveled all night, probably couldn't take it anymore," Xue Zimo said.

Hearing that Ling Yize had passed out because of running around all night, Ling Yichen was a little anxious: "Father, my son will go and see him."

The emperor nodded: "Go!" Although he was also worried about that child Yize, but now he himself was dizzy, and he really didn't have the strength to look at him.

Ling Yichen turned to Xue Zimo and said, "Let's go together."

Xue Zimo nodded, and the two of them rushed to Ling Yize's camp after saluting to the emperor.

As soon as he entered the tent, he saw an imperial doctor making medicine for Ling Yize. Ling Yichen hurried over and asked, "How is Yize?"

Seeing the person coming, the imperial doctor respectfully said: "Report to Your Highness, Fourth Highness is fine now."

"Why did he faint? Did the poison in his body explode?" Ling Yichen was most worried about this.

The imperial doctor replied: "Your Highness, don't worry. The Fourth Highness fainted because of his weak body and suffered from the wind and cold. It was not because of poisonous hair. The minister has already prescribed medicine for the Fourth Highness. After taking a few doses, he will be fine."

Hearing this, Ling Yichen finally felt relieved. He walked gently to Ling Yize's bed and sat down. The person lying on the bed was pale and bloodless. Ling Yichen pushed back the forehead hair that covered his eyes with distress.

Xue Zimo comforted him softly: "Your Highness will recover soon, don't worry."

Ling Yichen looked at him and nodded: "Yize fell ill because of me..." A flash of hostility flashed in his eyes as he said, "I will definitely get this debt back."

Xue Zimo frowned invisibly, the struggle for the throne, the fratricide between brothers, this day is inevitable after all.It is impossible for him to ask Ling Yichen to stay away like him, because staying away means admitting defeat, and the price of admitting defeat is likely to cost his life.He has been resisting Ling Yichen in his heart, a big reason is that he doesn't want himself and the person he likes to be involved in imperial power disputes.

Noticing Xue Zimo's expression, Ling Yichen was about to say something when he heard Ling Yize move on the bed. He turned his head and saw that Ling Yize was slowly opening his eyes.

"Yize, are you awake?" Ling Yichen said happily.

Ling Yize sat up in a daze, Ling Yichen stretched out his hand to help him, but saw Ling Yize's eyes widen and he patted his head lovingly: "Sick and stupid?"

Ling Yize grabbed his hand, not daring to say it: "Brother Emperor, it's really you!" After saying that, he hugged Ling Yichen tightly, tears rolling down his face, "I'm so afraid that I won't be able to see you again in this life." You, brother, I am really scared..."

Ling Yichen patted him on the back with a smile, and said, "It's okay, Yize, I'm okay, take a look if you don't believe me."

Ling Yize finally let go of Ling Yichen, crying and laughing: "Brother Huang—"

Seeing him like this, Ling Yichen sighed inwardly.Ling Yize suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Brother Huang, is the person who poisoned Emperor Father the Great Brother?"

Ling Yichen and Xue Zimo looked at each other, Ling Yize had a pure heart, his short life was already unfortunate enough, Ling Yichen didn't want his younger brother to be involved in this bloody dispute, and said: "Stop thinking about it, this time it was just a misunderstanding."

"Oh." Ling Yize said obediently.

Ling Yichen smiled: "You just woke up and your body is still weak, so go to sleep for a while after drinking the medicine."

Ling Yize was reluctant, but still obediently said: "Don't worry, Brother Huang, Yize will definitely get well as soon as possible."

Ling Yichen nodded in relief, and went out with Xue Zimo.

After leaving the camp, Ling Yichen grabbed Xue Zimo and asked softly, "What are you worried about?"

"What?" Xue Zimo was stunned.

Ling Yichen hesitated for a while, then said: "Do you not want me to deal with Ling Yihao?"

"It's not what I think..." Xue Zimo shook his head, paused, and said, "It's not what I should think about either."

Ling Yichen remained silent, he could clearly see Ling Yihao's feelings for Xue Zimo, but what about Xue Zimo's feelings for Ling Yihao?

In fact, for Ling Yihao's frame up this time, if it wasn't because of getting Yize involved, he would feel that he had nothing to hate, it was just a success and a failure.But as soon as he saw Ling Yihao surrounding Xue Zimo, he felt very irritable.

Therefore, even if it wasn't because of the throne, they were already doomed to be incompatible.However, if Xue Zimo doesn't let him deal with Ling Yihao, what should he do?

Ling Yichen's heart tightened, he asked himself, will it?Will there be someone else in the heart of the person he loves?

He has always been very clear about what he wants, so no matter what is waiting for him in front of him, he can't stop him from moving forward, only Xue Zimo, only him...
