ecstasy

Ning Shiting was really not in a hurry.

In the past when King Qing came to him, everyone made all the preparations at least one day in advance: King Qing's favorite snacks had to be prepared, and things like Jiuzhen Hebei had to be prepared by Ning Shiting several days in advance. Next, all the supplies he used to use were replaced with sterling silver according to his preferences.And when Ning Shiting came to find Prince Qing, he had to wait.

Gu Feiyin never accommodated his time, because there are still many serious things waiting for him.Once, he called Ning Shiting to report something, and Ning Shiting waited for him to come out of Chunxiao Building, but he didn't come after waiting for a day and a night, and finally the tea boy over there came to inform him: "His Royal Highness Qing said, let the young master come out first." Let's go back."

The place where Ning Shiting used to live was called Yuren Pavilion. Gu Feiyin ordered someone to build it for him. There used to be a tower decorated with gold and jade inside, but now it has been covered with dust for a long time.

He doesn't live there now, and he just bought a small and elegant courtyard.

He personally took Gu Tingshuang to choose where he wanted to live.

Ning Shiting walked behind, pushing Gu Tingshuang's wheelchair, and walked slowly through the mountains, rocks and flowing water: "If your Highness sees something good, just tell me. The courtyard here is not as comfortable as His Royal Highness Prince Qing's." Fortunately, I am familiar with this place, and there is a secret pavilion for incense passages between each floor, and the middle of the attic is hollowed out to prevent others from plotting. In other words, this is the only place that I am sure can protect His Highness."

The world still doesn't know that His Royal Highness King Lingjun controls the power of the ancient white wolf lineage, that the little wolf can't appear in front of people, and that Gu Tingshuang is out alone, it is indeed extremely dangerous.

Gu Tingshuang released his spiritual consciousness, and saw the whole courtyard, full of incomplete remnants and ghosts, which was terrifying.Wherever they went, those remnants followed, but they were frightened by the pure Yang white wolf aura on him, and they didn't dare to approach him.

But the merman is Yin, and the merman in front of him is not in good health. In their eyes, Ning Shiting should be a big piece of fat.

He suddenly raised his hand and turned his head to look for Ning Shiting's hand. Ning Shiting didn't know why, and gently handed his fingertips to him: "Your Highness?"

"The feng shui here is not good. Jiuzhou's aura is withered, and Dongzhou's is the most withered. Why?" Gu Tingshuang looked at the Cannian ghost in the courtyard, and immediately released his spiritual consciousness to let the little wolf hiding in the distance come to clean it up. "There is something here. There are a lot of dead people, they can’t get out, and their resentment is deep. If you live here, you must have nightmares. Didn’t you notice it before?”

Ning Shiting listened to him quietly.

He also had nightmares before, but he thought he was overthinking.

Everyone around him has fairy roots and bones and can activate spiritual vision, but no one reminds him that there are so many remnants and dead souls here.He is a poisonous shark, although his status is high, but in Gu Feiyin's place, he is separated from others.

"With Your Highness here, I haven't had nightmares for a long time." Ning Shiting said, "This is a fierce place, and it's also an ancient battlefield. Someone fought here thousands of years ago, and there are still some remnants and dead souls that I brought here. of."

"Are they all your comrades who died?" Gu Tingshuang asked.

He has seen Ning Shiting's dream, and now he no longer hides it from him, and just asked so openly.

Ning Shiting let go of his hand, lowered his eyes, and then walked slowly with him, "Yeah."

"Don't be sad." Gu Tingshuang said, "People who have gone to the underworld are no longer the same species as us. They don't have consciousness, don't understand cause and effect, what they miss most in life, and what they follow after death. Just like me Your concubine mother, on the first day you entered the mansion, her remnants haunted you, and she didn't mean to harm you."

"I miss His Highness too much." Ning Shiting heard that it was Gu Tingshuang's comfort, and a smile appeared in his clear eyes, "I know. I have... no longer feel sad."

Gu Tingshuang finally chose the place next to Ning Shiting, the closest to his main pavilion.The place is small, but reassuring.Even though the bed is uninhabited, it still smells of the incense that Ning Shiting often used. It is gentle and clear, like a spring breeze.

The little wolf sneaked over and hid in Ning Shiting's quilt, intending to watch over the fish to sleep at night.It is already very well-behaved, knowing that this place is dangerous, it cannot reveal its whereabouts, and it no longer jumps up and down to attract and bite people like before.

Gu Tingshuang was sitting by the porch, and his servants brought him tea, but he didn't drink it.

Ning Shiting dismissed the others, and naturally tidied up by his side.He watched him take off his hairpin, wash it with water soaked with calendula and wormwood leaves, and dry it with a flannel cloth. His long silver hair was filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, and it flowed down half-dry.After drying, tie it up and tie it up, put on the official official crown, the red tassel falls from the back of the head, looking handsome and upright.

Ning Shiting's usually overly feminine face also became heroic because of the courtier's uniform.

Ning Shiting watched Gu Tingshuang's eyes staring at him without blinking, also a little shy, lowered his head and smiled: "It's nothing to see."

Gu Tingshuang reached out to pick up the jade pendant that Ning Shiting was going to wear, combed the tassels on the jade pendant for him, clasped it around his waist, and hung it up for him.

He whispered: "...In the future, I will let you wear a new court dress for me."

After Ning Shiting washed and dressed, Gu Feiyin had been patient and waited for him for two hours.

King Qing was left hanging for two full hours, and everyone around the military mansion had retreated.The temperature in the entire inner room seemed to drop by two degrees.

Gu Feiyin took off her outer robe and only wore her inner shirt. She sat on the couch and read a volume of military books, with a gloomy and indifferent expression like a demon.

Ning Shiting walked in, neither knelt nor worshiped, just said softly: "I'm late."

"You came two hours earlier even if you came late. After eating, I chose a yard for my crippled son to wash up and rest, right?" Gu Feiyin said in a cold voice. "You are working here for the first year? There are no rules?"

Ning Shiting said softly: "Then the lord thinks that it is important to have no rules in a pavilion. It is important to have no rules in a pavilion, but someone can go beyond the rules. In King Qing's palace, he openly insulted His Royal Highness, calling for tributes to revive the soul incense to repair his face. And will Ting suffer for it?"

"You're going to talk back to me." Gu Feiyin smiled instead of anger, "Why, knowing why I'm looking for you, you can still avoid the serious ones - Bai Chen doesn't understand the rules, so it's worth your killing him?"

The white fox has nine lives, and killing one life will break a hundred years of cultivation. After Ning Shiting returned the body of the white fox, Baichen is still practicing in seclusion. He said that he might take a longer time to recover. Ning Shiting took this revenge , Baichen cried and shouted to report.

"Bai Chen doesn't know the rules, so is it worth His Highness's effort to protect him?" Ning Shiting's voice was very calm, with sharpness hidden in the calm, "As the leader of the army, he is obsessed with sensuality, and Wanli hastened to call the minister back to Dongzhou , ignoring government affairs and influence. How does His Highness want to deal with me?"

Gu Feiyin had never seen Ning Shiting speak so harshly, and he was a little dazed for a moment.

In the past, Ning Shiting was always docile and soft. He grew up according to his hope, and he became a knife to the outside world.But I don't know when it started, the handle of this knife started to prick my hand.Even though Ning Shiting only showed it clearly this time, he vaguely felt that this transformation began after Ning Shiting was sent to Xizhou Mansion by him.

At first he thought it was jealousy, but he was always keen, and felt that this time it might be different from jealousy.

"If you want to kill, His Highness is free." Ning Shiting didn't have any fluctuations in his eyebrows, as if he was talking about a very normal thing, "Now this minister is worth more than that white fox."

"—Oh?" Gu Feiyin smiled instead of anger, and lowered her voice, "How is it worth the money?"

"After the minister, there is no more soul-returning incense master." Ning Shiting said, "And since your majesty has no soul-returning incense, he will naturally know who killed me and who to go to."

"What else?" Gu Feiyin asked with interest.

"Gu Tingshuang is under my control. After I die, King Lingjun will turn against His Highness." Ning Shiting's voice became calmer, "The day Your Majesty bestowed Gu Tingshuang as King Lingjun, I knew about this son. It will definitely pose a threat to His Highness in the future, so he pretended to be a minister to confuse the public. Now that His Highness has found out about this, he can’t move him, so that’s why he asked the minister to come to Dongzhou, is that so?"

"Yes." Gu Feiyin smiled, "A-Ning, you have made progress. At least you are not like before... so stupid that it makes people's heart flutter."

Ning Shiting's fingers stiffened slightly.

—he guessed right!

Gu Feiyin called him over this time, not because of the white fox boy, at least he didn't mean to drink.With Gu Feiyin's sensitivity, no matter whether he revealed his relationship with Gu Tingshuang or not, with Gu Tingshuang's current momentum, Gu Feiyin would let him get rid of him.

"Two things." Gu Feiyin took a sip of tea, "Give me that evil son to end, a sudden illness, a slip, and let a cripple die. It should be very easy. Don't use your brain, Aning."

At this moment, Ning Shiting froze all over.

"The second thing," Gu Feiyin tilted her head, noticing the change in his expression, "Chen'er lost a life, and has been arguing with me for tonics, and if there is no soul-returning incense, he wants something else. Go and get it." It's settled."

"Why this look?" Gu Feiyin looked at him with a half-smile, "The first thing, is it embarrassing for you?"

Ning Shiting squeezed his fingertips, gently wiped off the cold sweat on his cuffs, and said softly: "Yes. I have been with Your Highness for several years. Your Highness is sincere and simple, and has no bad intentions. I have some feelings for him."

He raised his head and looked at Gu Feiyin calmly.The more it is at this time, the more we cannot avoid it.

Gu Feiyin stared at him, his eyes seemed to be able to look into the bottom of his heart.

"You haven't changed." After a while, Gu Feiyin looked away, and said lightly, "It was the same back then, but a whole city died, but you didn't get any water or rice for a whole month. Feelings are wrong, Aning, so Over the years, I'm sure you know what to let go of."

Ning Shiting took a deep breath, suppressed the trembling in his voice - and anger, and replied obediently and gently, "...I know."
