Meiqiang miserably uses herself as a substitute

The guard got up from the ground, coughed up a mouthful of blood and said, "Young Master Xie... cough cough... Your Highness, someone has said that Young Master Xie is General Xie's child!"

Xiao Ran's expression changed drastically: "Who released the words?!"

Guard: "This subordinate doesn't know!"

Xiao Yan knelt down and grabbed the guard's collar and said, "Stop it! Stop it!"

Guard: "Ahem... Your Highness, I can't stop it... It has already spread outside the capital, and in the capital... it will soon... Cough cough..."

"Get lost!" Xiao Zhan threw the man to the ground and shouted angrily, "Stop me if you can't!"

The guard said, "Yes!"

The wind blew the umbrella on the ground to the corner, Xiao Li got wet and went back along the original road to find Xie Yan.

Xie Yan bumped into Ah Deaf when he was returning home, he saw that his expression was a little strange, Xie Yan didn't ask any further questions, just said: "He's not here."

Ah Deaf was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, watching Xie Yan enter the room wet.

Xiao Zhan came back after a while, Ah Deaf was about to speak, but seeing Xiao Zhan's appearance, he was speechless.

Xiao Yan looked at him, Ah Deaf nodded, and mouthed: "Your Highness..."

Xiao Yan stopped at the door, but did not go in after all, turned around and went to the study.

Xie Yan was the only one in the room, he sat on the ground, the water flowed down his hair and clothes onto the ground, getting wet.

The rain was noisy, Xie Yan saw the gold chain at the end of the bed, and laughed softly.

To lock him up...

But he is not Bai Feng, the chain is bound to the wrong person after all.

He remembered waking up this morning and lying on Xiao Ling's body.The man frowned and didn't sleep well.

He stretched out his hands to rub his temples, the man's brows relaxed, and he began to mutter something.

"White……"

Xie Yan couldn't hear clearly, so he moved closer.

"Baifeng..."

Xie Yan paused.

Xiao Zhan's lips touched Xie Yan's ear, and with a click, all the warmth was sent into Xie Yan's ear, turning into ice thorns and piercing into it.

Xie Yan fell into an ice cave.

I knew it a long time ago... I told myself a long time ago that Xiao Yan only likes Bai Feng.

Xie Yan panicked for a moment and was at a loss.

He blocked Xiao Zhan's next words, and it was the first time he took the initiative, which made his breath unsteady.

But there was no way, he was almost frightened and frantically trying to prevent himself from hearing the word "Baifeng".

After a long time, he separated the distance between the two of them, Xiao Yan still didn't wake up, but he didn't call "Baifeng" any more.

Deceiving oneself and others, Xie Yan thought to himself, when did he learn to deceive himself.

Just like Xiao Yan has always been deceiving himself - Xie Yan is Bai Feng.

The truth is there, and there will be a day when the lie will be broken.

Xie Yan heard movement outside the house, and when he turned his head to look, Su Ci turned in from the window.

Seeing Xie Yan's appearance, Su Ci was a little stunned: "Master...Master..."

Xie Yan got up and said lightly, "You're still willing to come back."

Su Ci: "I..."

Xie Yan interrupted him: "Let's go."

Su Ci was stunned, and said, "Where are you going?"

He just came back, why is he leaving?

"The fourth prince's mansion can't stay any longer." Xie Yan bypassed him: "I have tasted the taste of human heart."

He said: "There is sourness in the bitterness, I can't bear it."

35. Chapter 35

In the study, Xiao Li stood by the window and did not speak while looking at the rain outside.

Ah Deaf said: "Young Master Xie, the pattern on the forehead is called Chi Wen."

Xiao Yan's expression moved slightly.

A Deaf said: "Red Tide was established by the empress first, and it existed after the royal family. Only a few people in the dynasty knew of its existence. The people there received strict training since childhood, and they vowed to obey the orders of Red Tide to serve the Daliang royal family."

"Father?" Xiao Li turned his head and said, "Chi Chao listened to Father's order?"

"Yes." Ah Deaf said: "But the Red Tide is so powerful that even the emperor can't make it obedient enough. When necessary, he will disobey the emperor's order according to his own judgment."

Xiao Zhan said, "Who do those people listen to?"

Ah Deaf said: "Their palace lord can't find this person."

Xiao Yan didn't speak.

Ah Deaf said: "Your Highness, these news are difficult to find out. They involve the former emperor and the former empress, which belong to the secrets of the royal family."

"But we found it." Ah Deaf said, "Your Highness, the Red Tide people know that we are investigating, so I'm afraid..."

Xiao Li went on to say, "They released it by themselves."

Ah Deaf nodded.

Xiao Zhan said: "Then continue." Taking advantage of his deep eyes, he thought that the injuries Xie Yan suffered that day were probably caused by those people from Chi Chao.General Xie was his father, and they also told him.

Xiao Li asked, "What's the matter with the red lines?"

Ah Deaf paused, and said, "Red stripes...is a rule of red tide."

Xiao Yan looked at him.

Ah Deaf continued: "The people of Red Tide have obeyed Red Tide's mission all their lives. If they flee or disobey without permission, they will be treated as traitors. The only way to leave is to carve red marks."

"Engraving red lines means issuing a "military order".In the future, Red Tide will give a mission, if you complete it, you can leave Red Tide and become a free body, if you fail, you will be punished with the traitor. "

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes.

Ah Deaf said, "Death."

Ah Deaf said: "He will receive training that is different from others, and he has to train colder and harder than others."

"Red lines themselves have no effect on people, it is just a sign to remind those who engrave him that he has chosen this path."

Xiao Yan said: "Then why doesn't Xie Yan remember the past?"

Ah Deaf said: "The purpose of engraving the red lines is to leave the red tide in the future. It must be that there is something outside the red tide. In order to prevent the outside things from interfering with its mission, the red tide will ask people to take medicine."

Ah Deaf said: "I only remember that I carved the red lines to leave the red tide and do other things, but I don't remember what to do."

"After the task is completed, the red tide palace master will give the antidote."

Xiao Ran looked a little flustered, he looked at Ah Deaf and said, "He...Ziqin also ate this..."

Ah Deaf nodded.

"Then he..." Xiao Ran's voice trembled slightly, "He wants to leave Red Tide, what is he looking for?" Ah Deaf didn't answer.

Xiao Li supported the table, Gu Zi smiled and said, "Is he looking for me..."

Ah Deaf: "Your Highness..."

"Is he looking for me?" Xiao Li raised his head, Ah Deaf saw his eye sockets were red, and said, "He worked so hard on the task...how could he not remember why..."

"Your Highness!" The butler pushed the door open, "Thank you, Young Master..."

Seeing Xiao Zhan's appearance, he immediately cut off the rest of the conversation.

Xiao Li's heart tightened, and he rushed out before the housekeeper finished speaking.

Standing in the rain, Xie Yan was not surprised to see Xiao Zhan rushing out.

He wanted to leave, but the housekeeper couldn't stop him, but if he didn't make it clear to Xiao Zhan today, he might continue to pursue him in the future.

Xiao Yan stood under the porch, staring at Xie Yan for a long time without saying a word.

The two seemed to have returned to seven years ago, and they parted on such a rainy day.

Xiao Yan felt that this time he was really going to let him go.

Xie Yan's right hand hadn't fully recovered yet, he held a dagger in his left hand, and waited for Xiao Zhan to speak, but the man didn't speak, just kept looking at him.

Xie Yan's heart hurts, and he doesn't understand why.

Is it because we are going to part ways that we are reluctant to part with each other?Or maybe this feeling and this scene are vaguely familiar.

Xie Yan was the first to speak: "I want to go, will you let me go?"

Xiao Ran didn't speak, but still stared at Xie Yan, his phoenix eyes were already wet.Xie Yan had tears in his eyes, so he couldn't see Xiao Ji clearly.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Xie Yan asked again: "I'm going and I won't return, will you let me go?" No one answered.

For the third time, Xie Yan raised the dagger to his neck and shouted: "Xiao Zhan! Let me go!"

Xiao Yan finally had a look of emotion on his face.

The housekeeper and Ah Deaf stood on one side, neither of them dared to speak.

There was only the sound of rain, hitting the ground densely and violently, splashing, trying to disperse something.

Xie Yan held the dagger, the water splashed and fell into his eyes.

Xiao Li moved his pace and walked into the rain.

Xie Yan didn't move, but sent the knife towards his neck.

Xiao Li paused.

Su Ci looked at the two, wondering what happened in the past month.

Xiao Yan laughed softly in the rain, Xie Yan looked at him like this, and tightly clenched the hand holding the knife.

Xiao Yan said, "Okay."

Xie Yan felt a dull pain in his heart.

Xiao Yan covered his eyes, looked at Xie Yan between his fingers, and said, "Let you go."

"I can find you once... Similarly, I can find you the second time, the third time, the fourth time..."

"Xie Yan...I let you go..."

The rain knocked down the dagger in Xie Yan's hand.

Xie Yan glanced at the knife, turned around and crossed the wall of the mansion, hiding in the rain.

The wet clothes are close to the body, and the wind blows cool.

Xiao Yan stood in the rain without turning around, staring at the place where Xie Yan last disappeared for a long time.Ah Deaf went up and said beside him: "This subordinate will order someone to look for it."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and took the people away, Xiao Zhan seemed to be fixed there, without moving at all.

The old butler finally couldn't stand it anymore, took an umbrella and stepped forward, carefully supported him, and said, "Your Highness... your body is important."

Xiao Yan remained silent.

The old steward didn't know the ins and outs of this, nor did he understand why Mr. Xie left suddenly.

He knew how sad Xiao Yan would be when Xie Yan left, and he was afraid that his heart disease seven years ago would recur again.

He dared not say anything more about this matter.Xiao Li didn't move for a long time, the wet clothes had to be changed quickly, if he fell ill, the princes in the court would become more unscrupulous.

The old housekeeper had been in the mansion for many years, and he couldn't see Xiao Zhan like this, so he threw away his umbrella, knelt down in front of him, and begged, "Your Highness... go into the house!"

Xiao Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the old housekeeper on the ground.

The old butler said in the rain: "Your Highness! You can't..."

The old housekeeper said: "You can no longer be as willful as you were seven years ago!"

Xiao Yan was taken aback.

The rain was getting louder, and there was a layer of fog around.

The him seven years ago was in a daze for a month because of Bai Feng's departure.But now... there is no chance for him to be confused
