The Regent is my cat

"You're awake, can you sit up?" He leaned over as he spoke, his eyes were as dark as everlasting night for a moment, as if they were illusions just now.

Jian Linqing propped up his hands to sit up, but there was a sharp stabbing pain in his palm, he couldn't help hissing, a hand firmly supported his shoulder, the man's slender and tall figure was pressed down, and his vision became somewhat blurry. In the dark, Jian Linqing sat down in some embarrassment, and the latter stepped back after he sat down, keeping a quite polite distance.

Jian Linqing saw the properly bandaged wound on his palm, and was about to thank him, when he suddenly saw his dark purple pajamas, he froze, "...you bandaged it for me?"

"Some injuries are more serious. If you don't deal with them in time, I'm worried about your high fever." As if seeing his nervousness, Yan Chen paused and said, "I only bandaged your limbs. Remember to take care of your injuries when you return home."

He looked natural, as if he didn't notice anything wrong... If Yan Chen found out that he was a man, how could he bandage his wounds like this, and watch him so gently, I'm afraid he might be called a monster.

He breathed a sigh of relief, "Princess, she..."

"She's fine. My people found her outside the city. I asked where you were and I sent her to the palace."

"That's good. Fortunately, it's okay. Concubine Chen must be very worried about her."

And Yan Chen's voice suddenly lowered, his words and flames burned quietly, "I'm worried about you too."

Jian Linqing clutched the blanket under her body, not daring to look into his eyes, "...Sorry, I was too careless. I..."

Yan Chen interrupted him, "It was I who distracted you. If you put it in normal times, you would have found out early on that it wasn't true, and it wouldn't be like this."

Jian Linqing scratched his face, looked at the annoyance and fear that could not be hidden on his face, scratched his face, but did not refute, "Then let's each hit [-] boards, don't frown, I'm not doing well now Is it? One should be happy to have narrowly escaped death."

As he said that, his stomach growled happily. Jian Linqing rubbed his stomach with a frank face, "Is there anything to eat? I'm so hungry. How long have I been here?"

Seeing that he was no longer restrained, Yan Chen also relaxed a little. He took out snacks and water from the package and handed them over, "We have already spent the night here, and in another hour, it will be dawn."

Jian Linqing nodded, took a rough wash, and then ate snacks. His stomach was full before he spoke, "Then when we go back, everyone in the palace is worried about me."

"As soon as I found you at the palace, I sent a message to go back. We will leave after the rain stops."

"Alright, have you met those men in black? And the corpses of those guards. I also took a broken sword from a man in black..."

"You don't need to bother." Yan Chen didn't want him to get involved in this kind of thing at all, "I think the same as you, I will investigate clearly, and find out the people behind this clearly."

Seeing that he knew what was in his heart, Jian Linqing didn't say any more. He glanced outside, "How long has it been raining? It doesn't seem to stop, it's so cold."

Yan Chen looked at him and muttered. From the beginning to the end, Jian Linqing did not show any joy in escaping from death. He seemed to be used to it. He was used to wandering on the edge of death and struggling in pain. The matter itself is not grateful to Dade.

It's like being ready to face death at any time.

Yan Chen panicked because of this thought, he couldn't help but stepped forward, clasping Jian Linqing's wrist with his palm, Jian Linqing was almost choked, "What... what's wrong?"

In front of him, Yan Chen lowered his eyes and said in a tense voice, "I want to confirm whether you are alive."

Jian Linqing's heart trembled, his heart softened after all, and he patted the back of Yan Chen's hand, "Of course I'm alive, you see I can speak well, I have a heartbeat and a pulse."

"But you almost died."

Jian Linqing is not one to comfort people, especially since the atmosphere between him and Yan Chen is so sticky, he is even more helpless, "You said it was close, am I fine now, and I am not missing arms or legs ..."

"Don't say such things." Yan Chen said softly, almost pleading.

"...Sorry." Jian Linqing shut up obediently.

He didn't know what to do, he let Yan Chen pinch his wrist, he could only eat snacks again, I don't know if it was because he was hungry, this snack was especially delicious, Jian Linqing was fascinated by eating it, and saw Yan Chen looked at him faintly, the expression on his face could not be described as angry but definitely not happy either.

Jian Linqing wanted to scratch his face again, he handed out a snack, "Have some? It's quite delicious."

Yan Chen knew that he was completely stumped and couldn't even get angry. He took the snack and ate it silently. Jian Linqing handed him water again. Yan Chen brushed his hand away and said softly: "When I find you, you You're covered in wounds, and you're about to die on the ground, I almost thought you had..."

Jian Linqing could naturally see his distinct uneasiness, and his fear was always with him, hiding beside him.

Jian Linqing felt a little disappointed, he stroked the snack in his hand, and said with a rare gentle voice, "But Yan Chen, everyone is going to die."

Yan Chen stared at him blankly, those green eyes were also staring at him, with pity he couldn't understand, "Everyone is going to die, even if you are glad that I didn't die in front of you this time, but one day , I will still die, before that, don’t be afraid of things that haven’t happened yet.”

Yan Chen didn't understand why he said such words, and why he looked at him with such an expression of almost pity, he was just panicking that the life of another person he cared about was almost passing from his hands, so that he saw Jian Linqing acting as if nothing had happened. The attitude ignited a burst of anger from the heart.

"You almost died in front of me, almost died in front of me because of my fault," he finally revealed a touch of unbreakable fragility, but his tone was as solemn as a promise, "I have lost enough, I can't lose you any more."

Jian Linqing grabbed his wrist when he heard the words, the latter obediently let him go, but his eyes were still imprisoned, Jian Linqing clasped his palms, and paused every word, "I told you, I want to leave the palace."

His voice was soft and hoarse, "I know, I won't stop you, but can't I see you?"

Jian Linqing pursed her lips and shook her head, Yan Chen's throat rolled, "Then at least let me write to you."

Jian Linqing bit the tip of her tongue to force herself to say these words, "I hope we will not have any contact from now on, bridges return to bridges, roads return to roads, I will be white if I leave, there are many eyes and ears around you, I don't want to be disturbed .”

"You're lying," Yan Chen looked at his deeply drooping eyebrows, "Jian Linqing, look into my eyes, and tell me again."

Jian Linqing admitted that he didn't have the courage, he pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.

There was only a slight burning sound for a while, and Jian Linqing felt that he was going to be breathless, the accumulated resentment, the guilt of failing his beloved, made his heart ache.

He heard Yan Chen sigh, his voice was full of exhaustion, "Jian Linqing, what should I do with you?"

Jian Linqing also wanted to ask him.

Yan Chen, what should I do with you?

They fell into silence again. Yan Chen looked at the silent man and looked out of the cave. The gray sky was still gloomy, "The rain stopped, let's go."

"Okay." Jian Linqing said that he was going to stand up, but found that his injured knee could not be lifted at all, so he smiled mockingly, "Why don't you wait a little longer?"

Yan Chen walked in front of him, "Your injured leg can't move, hug you or carry you, you choose one."

Jian Linqing really wanted to say that I should jump over by myself, but he couldn't say that when he met those eyes. He muttered for a moment, "Then...then hold it."

It's easy to reveal the truth behind the back.

Yan Chen flipped through the package without saying a word. Jian Linqing felt that there was everything in it. After a while, Yan Chen pulled out a cloak with fluff and put it on Jian Linqing. The fingers tied on the cloak were slender and It was so beautiful that Jian Linqing didn't dare to look at it too much. After Yan Chen finished dressing Jian Linqing, he also put on the cloak that Jian Linqing originally used as a quilt, and then hugged her horizontally.

The cloak was warm and big, and Jian Linqing's head and feet were tightly wrapped. He leaned against Yan Chen's chest, and his whole body seemed to be embedded in his arms, very warm.

Even when walking on the rough path, Yan Chen's footsteps were still steady and fast, as if they had reached an open place all at once. Jian Linqing clearly remembered that he and Chu Zehan had to climb for a long time before they could climb up.

Not far away was a tall and majestic black horse standing quietly. This was Yan Chen's horse. Yan Chen put Jian Linqing sideways on the horse's back, then turned himself onto the horse, clasped Jian Linqing's waist with one hand, and held the rein with the other. The horse ran away. The movement was extremely quick, and therefore a little bumpy, Jian Linqing leaned against Yan Chen's shoulder unknowingly, his nose was full of his smell, like the wind passing through a bamboo forest.

He was a little lost in thought, and at this moment a colorful little thing jumped out from Yan Chen's neckline and came into view.

It was Yan Manman's jade carving, it was a small gift for the cat, but he hung it around his neck so cherished and loved.

Jian Linqing closed her eyes hastily.

He had to leave, he had to make a clean break with him, he couldn't let Yan Chen sink deeper and deeper.

Yan Chen is a person who is too afraid of death, he can't afford the people around him to leave again.

It wasn't until the horse stopped that Jian Linqing regained his senses from deep thought. He opened his eyes and saw King Ning who was relieved. The latter asked while riding the horse, "Is the princess okay? Is the injury serious?"

"It's okay..."

Listening to Yan Chen's answer, Jian Linqing's voice sounded a little weak and tired. Jian Linqing looked at him with a heartbeat, and he saw the top of his black hair move, and a touch of orange white quietly jumped up.

He didn't have time to think about it at all, he stretched out his hand to hook Yan Chen's neck and approached him, and then he found the hood behind Yan Chen, and he quickly put the wide hood on him, covering his face in it.

From King Ning's point of view, it looked like the two were kissing, he pulled the reins to stop the horse, although he was at a loss, he was too witty to move forward.

Yan Chen also froze in a daze, with warm breath blowing against his ears, the voice of the person he liked was tense but intimate, "Yan Manman, quickly hide your ears!"
