White Hedge Dream

Chapter 235 Close your eyes

Shen Qing lay on the grass and let out a short breath.

Although the blood on his chest became a little redder with this breath, his expression was a little relaxed.

"You really don't want me to go find a doctor and try?" Bai Li said from the side.

When she saw the arrow on Shen Qing's chest, she immediately wanted to find a doctor, but Shen Qing stopped her.

"When you find the doctor and come back, you will only see my corpse." He said, laughing again, as if saying to himself, "If you don't find the doctor, it will be just a corpse in a while."

"It's better to live if you can. After all, you can still help." Bai Li said, getting up to leave again.

"No one wants to live. I know my situation. If I can't live, it will be useless even if the doctor comes." Shen Qing said, "Illusion can make people think they are dead, but no illusion can make a dead person think he is still alive."

He said with a self-deprecating smile.

"Being able to perform illusions doesn't mean you've become a god."

Those who know magic are just flesh and blood. Even if they can pull people with evil spirits into the illusion, they can't do anything against falling knives and flying arrows.

Bai Li said: "You saved many people from dying in the raid. To them, you are a god."

Shen Qing snorted from his nose: "I don't care about their life or death."

"But you didn't leave either." Bai Li said, looking at the sleeping child lying beside him, "You could have left."

When the raid first appeared, he could leave silently and unnoticed, but he stayed to help her expand her dream.

Later, the boat tilted, and the dreamers woke up instinctively. The dream was broken, and he protected the child and left the water with her.

Even though he was made of flesh and blood, there would be no danger if he left early alone.

Shen Qing sneered again: "Why is there no danger? If I only care about my own escape, will you let me go afterwards?"

Bai Li couldn't help but laugh.

"...If I were the empress, she wouldn't let me escape in the middle of battle." Shen Qing muttered again.

He looked at the sky. The morning light had receded and the sun was clear.

"Shen Qing, you are going to die too."

The female voice beside him sounded, not as cold as before, but as hot as the sun.

Shen Qing hurriedly turned his head and saw a familiar face in the sun.

"Empress," he said, and couldn't help but smile, "Although this little white lady is fierce and crazy, she is still a soft-hearted person. Seeing that I was going to die, she transformed into the empress to see me."

The woman beside him nodded: "Indeed." Then she curled her lips and said, "Silly."

"I deliberately made her pitiful." Shen Qing said, looking at the woman in front of him, "The more she transforms, the more Empress will occupy her body. One day, Empress will truly return."

The woman beside him smiled, pulled a piece of grass and poked Shen Qing's face: "Don't think about it, I'm dead and can't come back."

Shen Qing's breathing was rapid, and the hands hanging by his sides grabbed the grass on the ground: "Your Majesty will come back, your Majesty said so."

He looked at her with fascinated eyes.

"Empress, you look just like the real thing now, much more vivid than my illusion."

The woman next to him threw away the grass in his hand and looked at the river in front of him: "You have already said that it is an illusion. It is an illusion, no matter how true it is." After saying this, he smiled again, "But, I have existed. It is real, the traces I left are real, no one can erase them, and they will appear in another form in the future..."

Shen Qing looked a little confused: "Empress, what are you talking about..."

The woman next to him looked at him and smiled: "I'm saying, if I die, you will die too. Shen Qing, you have done what I asked you to do, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."

Don't worry about it? Shen Qing looked at the woman in front of him, and went back to the beginning in a trance. He failed to study and become an official. Unexpectedly, he relied on his piano skills to enter the palace, be loved by the emperor, and sought after by many people. Everyone discussed the piano with him. I only heard him talk about Qin.

In fact, he knew and wanted to talk about more than just Qin.

But whether he was in front of the emperor or other people, even if he was treated as a guest and called the number one scholar, as long as he wanted to say something else, everyone would interrupt him.

"That's not something you can say."

"Mr. Shen, please play the piano for us."

Yes, he is just a piano player, just like serving others with his beauty. Everyone only needs his piano, and no one cares about him. Even if he sits high in front of the emperor, it is just a decoration.

Just like that young man who banished the immortal Zhou Jingyun.

"You can't compare with him."

The emperor's new favorite beauty scoffed.

"He is more useful than your harp. When people see him, they will listen to what he says. As for you, the sound of the harp is meaningless. When you hear it, it is as if you haven't heard it."

Although he was not as good-looking as Zhou Jingyun, he was still young and energetic. He was so angry that he taunted him unceremoniously, "It doesn't matter if you are favored by His Majesty, you are just like a pearl hanging on the curtain."

The decorations are useless. The beauty was not angry. She laughed. She sat on the white jade steps and looked at him. She frowned and said, "I don't want to be useless, but what should I do? I am a woman. Who will listen to me?"

She said raising an eyebrow at him.

"Hey, piano player, are you willing to help me?"

People who play the piano would at least call him Shen Dalangjun respectfully. However, Shen Qing was dejected. In fact, that was right. He was just a piano player.

"As a piano player, what else can I do to help you besides playing the piano?" he said angrily.

"It is said that people who can play the piano have sharp ears. You can help me listen to the music." She said.

Listening? He looked back at her.

The woman on the steps smiled: "Listen to the voice of the courtiers, and listen to the voice of Your Majesty."

Listening to the courtiers, Your Majesty... He suddenly realized, what is this called listening to music! This is called prying into privacy!

He, a guest who is regarded as a decoration by everyone, is not the most convenient person for snooping!

This is to make him a spy!

This woman!

He was angry and panicked at the time.

She is a beloved concubine, a woman who doesn't serve people with sex, why should she spy on the courtiers!

"You'll know what you can accomplish only after you do it." She sat on the steps and looked at the spacious court hall, smiling and saying, "Don't you want to try, let's do something new that has never been done before in this world?"

She looked at him again.

"Don't you want to try and let everyone in the world hear our voice?"

Let everyone in the world hear it...

Shen Qing looked at the woman in his sight and let out a short gasp: "Empress, you can't ignore it. What you said hasn't been done yet."

The woman next to me laughed and said: "I can't help it. It's never that easy, especially if it's something you've never done before. Failure is normal."

Failed, failed, failed? Shen Qing's breathing became more and more rapid. Yes, the empress was killed, and the officials and soldiers they gathered together fell...

Shen Qing's tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

A finger came over to wipe it away.

"Don't cry, don't cry." She said with a smile, "There's nothing to cry about when you fail. Things in the world are just like that. How can you do whatever you want? However, our affairs are not a complete failure, and this is not the end of the matter. Finish."

Shen Qing looked at her with expectant eyes, so she would still come back!

She looked at his expectant eyes and slowly shook her head: "No, Shen Qing, if I die, you will die too. This is the end of our affairs, and we will leave it to others."

Here we are... Shen Qing's eyes dimmed.

A hand gently touched his face.

"Don't be sad, you have finished what you have to do for me." She said, "Shen Qing, you can have a good rest."

It's time to rest.

Shen Qing's eyes were filled with sadness as he looked at the clear sky, with clouds passing by and birds flying by, making clear chirps.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he breathed out his last breath and closed his eyes.

The child next to him moved, clenching his fists as if he was about to wake up. Bai Li reached out and patted the child, and the child fell asleep again.

"He's going to die." She said, turning to look at her side. There was a figure sitting side by side with her in the sunlight. "Why don't you say something nice to him? You must let him die with regrets."

The figure next to him sighed: "He's going to die. I won't lie to him. He's still looking forward to death. It's so tiring."

It makes sense. Bai Li smiled and looked at the river, which was flowing calmly.

"Okay, it's time for you (I) to go back."

Bai Li said, and at the same time there was a voice saying in his ear.

She paused and looked to her side.

The person next to me smiled: "It's so scary. The two of us are becoming more and more like one."

Bai Li said: "You were created by me, so naturally you are one with me."

Then he picked up the child.

"You dead people can die in peace."

"Those who are alive will have to take revenge and complain."
