Shadow guard, he carried my cub

This time Yiying woke up not in the prince's bedroom but in her own residence, but her unexplained coma and discomfort from her body let Yiying know what she had experienced.

Yiying was stunned, is it His Highness?Will it be Your Highness?It must be Your Highness!

Yiying felt that he was going crazy, so he put on his clothes and went straight to the East Palace, but was blocked by the guards outside the palace. Yiying shouted loudly to His Highness but did not get the slightest response, he knelt outside the palace and begged His Highness despondently. To see him, to have a word with him, to tell him what happened.

This state of being kept in the dark and forced to accept made Yiying feel terrified. He didn't know what would happen next, whether he would never see His Highness again, why His Highness treated him like this, all these things were lingering in his heart The doubts are like the seeds of fear that are pulling him into the abyss little by little. Sooner or later, he will be unable to bear it and his mentality will collapse!

The weather in autumn is changeable. One moment the sun was shining brightly, and the next moment it was cloudy and it was raining. The bean-sized raindrops fell on the body and hurt, but Yiying seemed to be unconscious, kneeling straight, A few wisps of hair were wet by the rain and stuck to the face, looking a bit embarrassed and pitiful.

What Yiying didn't know was that from the moment he stepped into the East Palace, his highness had been watching him. Chi Ming saw Yiying's hoarse shouts and his kneeling figure stubbornly in the rain. A few times I couldn't help but want to rush out and hug him in my arms, but every time I couldn't help but stop.

Yiying, who was drenched in the rain outside, might be in pain and uncomfortable, but how could Chi Ming, who was hiding in the house, feel any better? His heart was full of torment, self-blame, guilt, and apology. These emotions brought together also made him suffer. Unbearable, what he endured was no less than Yiying.

The heavy rain continued, and the guards guarding the gate of the palace stood indifferently under the eaves. Yiying couldn't eat or sleep well recently. After kneeling in the rain for an hour, his face turned pale, and even his body was not as good as before. As tough and straight as it was, it swayed slightly in the cold rain.

The coldness of the rain probably couldn't match the coldness in his heart at this moment, Yiying's body tilted and fell into the heavy rain.

Chi Ming, who never took his eyes off Yiying, was shocked the moment Yiying fell down. He couldn't care less about the mess of worries in his heart and rushed into the heavy rain, ran to Yiying and hugged her into his arms.

"Xiao Yi! Xiao Yi!"

Yiying passed out completely, and Ren Chiming didn't respond to how loudly he shouted. Chi Ming panicked, and while he quickly picked him up into the room, he yelled loudly to call the imperial doctor.

In the end, Chi Ming didn't dare to leave him in the bedroom. After the imperial physician made sure that he was all right, Chi Ming sent Yiying back to his residence.

Chi Ming stayed in Yiying's residence for a long time before leaving, and when Yiying opened his eyes, he suddenly felt that His Highness was beside him, as long as he stretched out his hand, he could grab it. Only him.

It turned out to be just a dream in his imagination, Yiying curled up in the corner of the bed with her legs hugged, staring at a place helplessly with empty eyes.

His Highness does not want to see him, His Highness does not want him anymore, he is a waste, such words echoed in his mind over and over again, lingering, fear enveloped his whole body, and made Yiying want to escape unconsciously, escape from this cold palace and so Inescapable fear!

As long as he leaves, he won't feel afraid, suddenly he seems to have found the direction of life, Yiying's spirit is lifted, he seems to have forgotten that he is a shadow guard, he can't escape, and he can't escape.

When he was captured by the leader of the shadow guards and put in the torture room, Yiying was still in a trance, as if he didn't know where he was.

Yiying didn't say a word as the whip was whipped on his body, like a puppet that had lost its soul.Yiying is a good seedling, the leader of the shadow guard originally intended to train him as the next successor, but he also knew that the emperor's order must not be violated, so he felt deeply regretful.

It is a capital offense for the shadow guard to defect, if not for the great use of Yiying, it is not just a few whips.

The leader of the shadow guard raised Yiying's chin to make people look at him: "The defection of the shadow guard is a capital crime, Yiying, do you want to die?"

Yiying was tied to the cross, covered with blood-red welts, his face was pale and bloodless, and a few strands of hair fell on his forehead, making him even more embarrassed. His eyes flickered slightly and he spit out a few words softly.

"Subordinates don't want to die."

Every shadow guard is prepared to die for their master. They are not afraid of life and death, but that doesn't mean they are willing to die. If they can live well, who is willing to die?

The leader of the shadow guard breathed a sigh of relief: "Then live well, remember, you are a shadow guard, no matter where you are, you are a shadow guard, the most basic belief of a shadow guard is loyalty and obedience, disobedient shadow guards only Can be obliterated, don't try to escape."

Yiying finally focused his eyes on the leader. The leader was right. As a shadow guard, the only way to escape is death. How could he escape alive? However, he didn't want to die, even if he was living without dignity in the quagmire.

"Yes, my subordinates are wrong."

The leader of the shadow guards was completely relieved, he knew that Yiying had listened.

In the emperor's study, the leader of the shadow guards came to report the situation to the emperor.

"How's it going?"

"Go back to Master, it's done, Yiying will never run away again."

"That's good," the emperor sighed: "Ming'er is stubborn, I'm afraid he will never figure it out if he doesn't force him, so you send Yiying tonight."

The leader of the shadow guard wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words. Yiying had just been punished and was covered in injuries. This was not forcing the prince, but stabbing the prince, but what he could think of Why can't the master think of it?If the master wants to use this to stimulate the prince to become a subordinate, he can only shut up and do so.

"Yes, this subordinate will arrange it."

Chi Ming didn't know about Yiying's defection and punishment. In order to train the prince, the emperor handed over half of the court affairs and documents to Chi Ming a few years ago. Chi Ming had no way to pay attention to Yiying because of his responsibility Every move, this day was also busy until it was dark before returning to the dormitory to prepare for rest.

However, as soon as Chi Ming stepped into the dormitory, he saw a scene that shocked him. He saw Yiying kneeling in front of his bed wearing a white gauze. The soft hair was neatly scattered behind the back, making the young man look like a quiet and beautiful portrait at the moment.

"Slave to Your Highness, please greet me."

Yiying did not see the excitement and joy of seeing His Highness again, only eyes like stagnant water were left, looking at His Highness emptily.

Chi Ming looked at Yiying's eyes. He remembered that these eyes were as bright as stars, and he was enchanted when he smiled. He liked that when Yiying looked at him, his eyes were all about him, and even the curvature of those eyes was because of him. , Now when these eyes look at him, there is no ripple or throbbing at all, they are as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

Chi Ming took a step back in fear, he was frightened, he didn't dare to approach Yiying, couldn't bear to watch, he turned around and fled in a panic, his back was ridiculously embarrassed.

The emperor was about to go to bed when he was interrupted by the prince who broke in suddenly. The emperor waved his hand blankly to signal everyone to go down.

Chi Ming stared angrily at his father and asked sharply, "Why!"

The emperor's expression was indifferent: "Isn't this what you want? The emperor sent it to you. Don't you like it?"

Chi Ming shouted loudly: "This is not what I want."

"So what, you got what you wanted after all, didn't you, the process doesn't matter."

Chi Ming clenched his fists in his sleeves. He tried hard to control the emotions that were about to explode, and looked at the emperor with cold eyes: "How can father be willing to let Yiying go."

But the emperor shook his head and said: "It's not me who refuses to let Yiying go, it's you, whether Yiying is a shadow guard, a medicine man, or the prince's male favourite, he should have lived a good life, it's your cowardice." Pushed him into the abyss, isn't Yiying's appearance now the best example?"

Chi Ming was trembling all over, he didn't know if it was because of anger, or because he was too mournful and shivered.

"Xiao Yi is a shadow guard!"

Chi Ming gritted his teeth and said this. It was a compromise to the emperor. He had no other choice. He never wanted to see Yiying look at him with that kind of eyes in his life. It would make him feel that Yiying would die the next moment. , leave him forever.

The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Are you sure? Yiying once tried to escape. You should know which one is better to control, a shadow guard with strong martial arts or a male pet kept in the harem."

Chi Ming felt a pain in his heart, the pain was not the choice between letting Yichen be the shadow guard or the male favourite, but that Yiying wanted to escape.That's right, anyone who is treated so badly will want to escape. Yiying is also a person of flesh and blood, and understands sadness and humiliation, but how can the father allow Yiying to escape? You must also be brave enough to face and protect people under your own wings.

"My son is clear and has decided that Yiying can only be a shadow guard. I hope that my father will not do unnecessary things."

Tonight, Yiying dressed as a male pet deeply hurt Chi Ming's eyes. The people he cares about will never allow anyone to spoil him.

The emperor's mouth curled up in a triumphant arc: "As you wish."

When Chi Ming returned to the dormitory, Yiying was still kneeling on the spot without moving. When Chi Ming came in, Yiying just stared blankly at him with his dull eyes.

Chi Ming took off his coat and put it on Yiying, and hugged him in his arms and patted him distressedly: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyi, I'm here, I'm sorry, I will never let you get hurt in the slightest again."

Yiying suddenly came back to his senses, as if he hadn't recognized the person in front of him until this moment as His Highness whom he had always been thinking of. It was his only belief that supported him in the cruel shadow guard training, and it was also to become a qualified shadow guard. For the person who brought him back to life again and again, all he endured was to be qualified to stand by His Highness's side and protect His Highness, but His Highness no longer wanted him.

Nestled in the familiar embrace, Yiying couldn't bear the emotion of being on the verge of collapse any longer, tears burst out like a bank, and burst into tears, as if venting the grievances and fears she had suffered for many days.

Chi Ming hugged his arms tightly and his body trembled because of sadness, warm liquid flowed down from his neck, which made Chi Ming feel distressed and blamed himself. This was the first time he saw Yiying crying so sadly. He deserved to die for being wronged so much, he was the one who was sorry for Yiying.

"Stop crying, don't be afraid, it's all my fault, I'm sorry, don't cry..."

After an unknown amount of time, Yiying's crying gradually subsided, Chi Ming gently kissed away the tears on Yiying's face, and hugged her to the bed.

Yiying might be really tired, and fell asleep not long after he relaxed, but he kept holding on to Chi Ming's clothes in his hands. Fall asleep in your arms.
