It was night, Yu Bai wrapped up the dry sausage that was mixed in the dreamland separately, and put it carefully into the box.Facing the flickering candlelight, he once again recalled the news from Feng Shishi a few days ago.

——Feng Shiyi brought the news of the eldest sister.He said that he heard from Feng Yi, who was beside Zhao Jun, that Yu Wan had secretly entered Beijing not long ago, and now he is living in Qingning Hall in the palace.

This news was almost absurd, but it hooked Yu Bai's heart extremely precisely.

Before going to the Imperial Medical Office to play this trick, he had secretly watched Qingning Hall for a long time.Indeed, as Feng Shishi said, the palace that had been vacant for many years suddenly had maids delivering meals every day, and guards patrolling secretly, obviously people lived in the palace.However, for several days in a row, no one has stepped out of the Qingning Palace, not like the concubine of the emperor Xinna, more like...

Will Zhao Jun really do this?Yu Bai asked himself, but there was no answer.

--he does not know.After more than two years, the image of Zhao Jun in his heart has become increasingly blurred.From the initial tit-for-tat confrontation, to the later ambiguous intimacy, to the now seemingly true promise, he has long been unable to predict Zhao Jun's actions.

So he used the excuse of difficulty sleeping to take Drunken Dreams openly, then accidentally knocked over the medicine table, and replaced the Drunken Dreams in the porcelain bottle with dry grass that rolled under the medicine cabinet.

If that person is really my sister... Just thinking about it, his palms were already sweating a little.He was about to open the window to calm down, when he turned around and found Feng Shishi.

He paused and stopped the hand that opened the window: "Are you still asleep?"

Wan Lai is silent, and the frost is accompanied by the moon.I don't know when snow fell in the sky, and pieces of whiteness fell into the soil, dyeing a flawless world.

Feng Shishi's eyes fell on the celadon bottle in his hand, and said in a low voice, "What is this?"

The lights are dimly lit, and black shadows fall on the white window paper, like ink paintings drawn with ink pens, tall and beautiful.Zhao Jun just stood quietly under the withered rose trellis, listening to the whispered dialogue between the two in the room.

"Ah Bai, you really want to..."

"really."

"Once this matter is revealed..."

"The worst thing is to die. He has imprisoned me here and threatened me so many times. Should I continue to be a mermaid and be slaughtered?" Yu Bai's voice was flat, "Feng Shishi, I don't ask for your help, but I beg you to pretend not to know. When things come to light in the future, you can put all the responsibility on me."

Feng Shishi looked at the small celadon bottle, her heart was ups and downs many times, suddenly there was an unspeakable emotion.

"In your heart... am I such a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

The howling wind also fell silent.

"I didn't intend to have my own life experience. My son found out those for me. I am satisfied. This trip is not for solving the mystery of life experience, but for the friendship between friends."

On that day, the three-foot sword edge left shallow wounds, but it didn't hurt his life at all.

……

A few days ago when the Dongchuang incident happened, he went to see Yu Bai—to thank him for the trust and help he had given him?Or do you regret that you have been a minion for a tiger, and you have concealed it from Yu Bai again and again?Feng Shishi didn't know.

He went in and offered his sword.

The meaning is self-evident.

Obeying Zhao Jun's orders is his bounden duty as a shadow guard.Living up to Yu Bai's trust is also an inevitable result.As described in all goofy tales, once the shadow guard wandering on the edge of life and death puts his heart into it, he will never return to the starting point.

Yu Bai trusted him, so he could only give Yu Bai a sword.Whether the sword pierces his chest or slits his throat, he is content to do so.

Yu Bai said coldly: "You really think I won't do it?"

"I really regret that I didn't stab you through my heart at that time."

Feng Shishi lowered her head: "It's not me, there will be others.

The weight in his hand lightened, and it was Yu Bai who picked up the sword.Then the sword was pointed at Feng Shishi's throat.

Going a little further, the sword's edge will pierce the flesh and penetrate deep into the veins.Yu Bai glanced coldly at the person in front of him, turned his wrist, and the sword light flashed across.

Feng Shishi felt a sharp pain in her throat.

With a clang, the sword was thrown to the ground.Yu Bai threw the sword, and said coldly: "Find some medicine for yourself, don't dawdle in front of my eyes these two days."

It was a very shallow wound.The person holding the sword held a very steady hand, the tip of the sword could cut through the flesh, oozing out tiny traces of blood, and the slightest bit of depth would bleed profusely.Feng Shishi had suffered hundreds of injuries before, but this time her heart was sour and unspeakable.

For him in the past, Yu Bai was an abstract task, no different from the assassinations he performed in the past.He used to play the role of a jailer, but now he has to respond to Zhao Jun's order, pretend to be cheerful, and weave Yu Bai's dreams while gaining Yu Bai's trust.However, the deceived person, persistent with the sword, only left such a wound that was better than nothing.

That sword can be embedded in the throat completely, Yu Bai has thousands of reasons to kill himself.If he was Yu Bai, he would not keep such an accomplice by his side.

He lowered his head and was about to leave, but was stopped by Yu Bai coldly: "Wait."

A scroll was thrown into his arms.I saw a Jinpeng totem painted on the scroll, which was the pattern on the longevity lock he carried since childhood.

Feng Shishi looked over in astonishment, but saw that Yu Bai had no intention of explaining, so he turned his face away and closed his eyes to rest.

……

The snow is getting bigger and bigger.Zhao Jun lowered his head, lightly brushed off the falling snow from his shoulders, and looked at the dancing lanterns in the window paper again.

He knew about Feng Shishi's background.It's just that to him, the life experience of a shadow guard doesn't matter.

Feng Shishi's life experience is not so confusing, he is an orphan of the Chu family in Baizhou.

Although Baizhou is in Daliang territory, because of its remote location, the officials under its rule were once manipulated by the local big clan.At that time, Baizhou was divided and occupied by the Chu and Mi ethnic groups. The well water of the two ethnic groups did not interfere with the river water. The Mi ethnic group colluded with local officials and provoked disputes between the two ethnic groups on festivals.The defeated Chu people were forced to leave their hometowns, but encountered plague and famine, so they had to seek help from the Central Plains people.

Feng Shishi was born to a Chu woman and a Central Plains man. After many years of training, there is only one Feng Shishi left in the Chu family.

It's just the reincarnation of heaven. Over the past few decades, the secret tribe has also been plagued by plague, and the local officials have already changed a group due to ineffective governance.If he wanted to seek revenge, he might have to go to the messy tombs in the Baizhou mountain forest.

Feng Shishi rubbed her eyes.In fact, he doesn't have much obsession with returning to the roots of the fallen leaves and the inseparability of his homeland—what does a shadow guard who doesn't know when he will live and die want the fallen leaves to return to his roots?He thinks that a mere life experience can't disturb his tenacious heart that walks on the tip of a knife, but after knowing the truth, there is indeed something different.

Aside from the "moving", he seemed to finally understand Yu Bai, the feeling of being concealed and deceived, and that feeling.

Yu Bai stared at the jumping lanterns for a long time, his eyes were a little dazzled by the light: "On the night of Lidong, Zhao Jun will come over. I will keep Zhao Jun at that time, and I would like to trouble you to take this opportunity to go to Qingning Palace to find out if there is a sister in it." audio."

Feng Shishi responded in a low voice: "My lord...be careful when using this medicine, His Majesty is not so easily fooled."

"I know." After saying that, Yu Bai fell silent.

It was dark.A cloud of snow crushed the branches and slammed to the ground.The sound of leaving footsteps was mixed with Xueluo's voice, but it was blurred by the whistling wind.

The figure under the rose trellis went away.

"What sound?" Yu Bai opened the window a crack.The world outside is like a thick drop of ink that cannot be melted away, and the last gleam of bleak moonlight is also covered by thick clouds, and you can't see your fingers.

The cold wind poured in through the gaps, bringing the unique freshness and chilliness of Yexue.

Feng Shishi closed the window carefully: "I think it's snowing heavily, and the branches broke."

Yu Bai sighed softly: "I don't know how much snow it was."

.

On the day of Lidong, there was indeed a lot of snow.The snow fell from morning to night, and it barely stopped until evening.

Xieyi raised her dirty kitten face, and carefully tore off Yu Bai's clothes: "My lord?"

In the past few days, the young master seemed to have lost his soul, sitting by the window in a daze all day long, and didn't even bother to check the three-character scriptures that she had written a few days ago-Xieyi used her meager knowledge of arithmetic to break her fingers It was confirmed that this happened to the young master after Feng Shishi had a conversation with the young master three days ago.

Yu Bai slowed down a bit, and checked her ghostly dictation: "It's okay. Go and get Luo Fuchun hidden in the cellar for me."

Immediately, Xieyi became very nervous: "Master Eleven has ordered you not to let you drink alcohol."

"You are obedient." Yu Bai smiled, "You don't need to listen to him this time, I want to entertain people."

Entertain?Who are you entertaining?These days, apart from the three of them, Yannan Pavilion never stopped even a sparrow.Xieyi blinked, glanced out of the window, and suddenly exclaimed: "Fireworks!"

Yu Bai followed the sound and saw a firework rising into the sky.The extremely gorgeous gold gathers at one point, and then spreads out softly, and bits of broken gold illuminate half of the sky.

Like the rising of the sun, like the constant of the moon.

The last firework died, scattered into stars, and fell into the night sky.Yu Bai brushed off the flower shadows all over his body, and when he turned his head, he saw Zhao Jun.

The author says:

It's rare that the fireworks that Zhao Jun promised didn't lie this time.
