Lan Lin knew very well in his heart that Lin Xie had impure motives for approaching him. He was not a canary who could stay by his side for a long time. He did not have the loyalty and determination of Chang Ting. He could not lose him, so the only way was to turn him into a canary. eunuch.
In this way, his only way out in the future is to stay by his side obediently and accompany him for the rest of his life, and he can no longer be with other women. He will selfishly trap her by his side for the rest of his life.
It was precisely because Lin Xie took action in advance before the Changting Festival two years ago and designed to injure Lan Lin that Chang Si missed the assassination opportunity.
Later, Lan Lin took Lin Xie, who looked similar to Chang Ting, back to the palace. He thought that he had regained his lost love. Lan Lin also found sustenance for the long-lasting love in his heart, so he did not pay homage to Chang Ting at Suoyun Lake.
Lan Linyi's wayward life seems to be overbearing and ruthless, but who knows his thoughts and dreams. Now he and his sweetheart are far apart. This love and unreasonable mismatch across time and space are just an empty dream after all. That’s all.
Lan Lin knew full well that he just regarded Lin Xie as Changting's shadow. He longed to slowly tame Lin Xie, the caged bird, and turn him into Changting.
But two years later, he found that the most difficult thing in the world is to make someone fall in love with you. Even if he is the emperor of a country, he still has things that he cannot get, such as the human heart and love.
Facing Lin Xie, he was really powerless and couldn't move. No wonder, he couldn't turn him into Chang Ting, but he also felt that he was Chang Ting. He had been living in contradiction, and there was no emotion in his heart that Lin Xie could share. , he lived a life that was physically and mentally exhausted and tortured.
These complexes were deeply buried in his heart, making him unable to get sick and becoming ill with thoughts.
Lin Xie, who was sitting aside, looked at Lan Lin's painful look and sighed. He had never been able to see through this masked King Chailan. He made him feel afraid. When dealing with him, he had to be careful and careful every step of the way.
Now that he is ill and unable to do anything about himself, he can kill him with just a slight move of his hands. However, he feels that Lan Lin is really pathetic. He seems to be living a very wanton life, but after all, there are things he can't do. matter.
Lin Xie also understood at this moment that he was just Chang Ting's shadow in Lan Lin's heart. What he had been pursuing all these years was to find in himself the feelings that Chang Ting gave him.
But he is not Changting, he does not love Lanlin, and he only has Qingyi in his heart. All of this was a deep mistake from the beginning.
At this moment, Lin Xie, who had originally had murderous intentions towards Lan Lin, finally began to soften his heart, and felt a little pity for the poor man on the bed. He picked up the spoon, took another spoonful of medicinal soup, and then carefully fed it to In his mouth.
The medicine was fed into Lan Lin's mouth one spoon at a time. Lin Xie seemed to have relieved his hatred for Lan Lin for so many years. He even began to understand why Lan Lin did this to him, including making him a eunuch. .
He seemed to be afraid of losing him from the beginning, so he did not hesitate to break his wings and let him become the caged bird.
Lin Xie shook his head and sighed. The candlelight swayed gently between the two of them, and their reflections were in pairs, but they could not get close to each other. All that was left was loneliness and loneliness.
King Zhuilan was injured and fell into a coma. As the eunuch in charge, Lin Xie could not absolve himself of the blame. He stayed by his bedside all night, hoping that he would wake up soon.
In order to block the news and avoid future troubles, he had ordered the guards accompanying him not to tell anyone about the assassination of King Zhui Lan.
When Lan Lin was sent back, the three concubines only thought that His Majesty had caught the wind and cold in the snow and needed to stay in bed to rest, so they didn't think much about it.
At dawn the next morning, Lan Lin was exhausted and weakly opened his eyes. He reached out and touched the corners of his eyes and found that there were tears on them.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Lin Xie sleeping beside his bed. His right hand was hanging on his chest, and the scar on the back of his hand where he had whipped her was bright red and dazzling.
Lan Lin felt heartbroken and regretted that he had been too impulsive.
He turned his head to look at the sleeping Lin Xie, thinking that when he was sleeping, he was really lovable, would not contradict others, and was as quiet as a ball of soft cotton, as if he could hold him with just one hand. generally.
He carefully looked at this face that made him obsessed. The eyebrows, eyes, bridge of the nose, lips... all looked like Changting. His Changting should look like this when he grows up!
His heart began to ache when he thought of Changting. He looked at Lin Xie and thought of Changting. He asked himself who the person he really loved was? To this day, he himself feels blurry, but one thing he knows very well is that Lin Xie is a living person. If he stays by his side, he can continue to have this long dream.
He didn't want to quickly find out who the person he loved in his heart was. It didn't matter whether it was Lin Xie or Changting. As long as he could stay with him and make him feel happy inside, So whether that person is Chang Ting or Lin Xie, it actually doesn't matter.
Lin Xie's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and then slowly woke up. After a night of exhaustion and fear, she finally saw that Lan Lin had woken up. She couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Your Majesty, you are finally awake!"
Lan Lin said in a tired voice: "Have you served Gu all night?"
Lin Xie said: "It is my fault that Your Majesty was injured. His Majesty had a high fever all night long, and I was very worried. Fortunately, God bless Your Majesty, and Your Majesty finally woke up!"
Lan Lin smiled thinly, then looked directly at Lin Xie and asked, "Why didn't you take advantage of Gu's unconsciousness and take Gu's life!"
Lin Xie was puzzled, frowned and asked, "What nonsense is your Majesty talking about?"
Lan Lin examined Lin Xie in front of him and thought to himself, why did you plan to enter the palace for two years? If you wanted Gu's life, you could easily get it last night, but why didn't you take action? So what exactly do you want? Lin Xie, I really can’t figure out your thoughts! Why are you so thoughtful, cunning and unpredictable?
You are actually different from Chang Ting, he is much simpler and simpler than you... If you were Chang Ting, I wouldn't be in such a dilemma.
When Lan Lin stood up, he accidentally pulled the wound on his chest and couldn't help but cough twice.
Lin Xie helped him lie down on the dragon couch, then took the medicine bowl that had been warmed from the stove nearby and said to him: "Your Majesty, this is the medicine that Pharmacist Chen has prescribed for you. Please drink some more!"
Lan Lin took it and took a sip, then frowned and said, "Is this the bitter thing you drank for last night?"
Lin Xie smiled and said: "Good medicine tastes bitter, why is Your Majesty acting like a child?"
After hearing this, Lan Lin felt warm in his heart and seemed to be in a trance, as if the person who was tenderly serving him had turned into Chang Ting. He remembered that Chang Ting had also said this to him.
As soon as he got emotional, he held Lin Xie's right hand. Lin Xie was startled and raised her eyes to look at him.
Lan Lin said without leaving any trace: "Did that whip hurt you?"
Lin Xie withdrew his hand, lowered his head and said, "It was my servant who offended Long Yan. I deserve this punishment. Your Majesty, don't worry!"
Lan Lin sighed, raised the medicine bowl again, and drank the bitter medicine into his stomach with all his heartache.
Lin Xiepi asked with a smile: "When your Majesty was unconscious last night, he tossed and turned and called someone's name."
Lan Lin seemed to have been torn open by someone, and his face suddenly showed displeasure, but Lin Xie was cunning and refused to let him go, and continued: "Later, I learned from Doctor Chen that the man named Chang Ting is His Majesty. He was a personal guard back then, and he was as close as a brother to His Majesty. I heard that he died for Your Majesty, and it seems that he was buried in the forest next to Suoyun Lake, and yesterday happened to be Changting's death ceremony, by the way... Doctor Chen also said that the slave looks very similar to Changting! Is that right, Your Majesty——"
Lin Xie's big talking eyes seemed to be asking him who was he thinking about at the moment? Is it Lin Xie or Changting.
After all, Lan Lin is a king. After all these years, he has gone through many storms and storms. Naturally, he has not lost his composure or lost his position in front of him. He just raised his hand, pinched his chin, turned his face this way and that, and then He said calmly: "Really? They are somewhat similar!"
Lin Xie curled his lips and smiled, as if he had stepped on the other person's sore spot, and continued to ask: "But Pharmacist Chen said that this slave is very similar to Changting!"
The way he looked at him was extremely evil and scorching, making people unable to avoid him.
He had to admit that when he saw him for the first time, he mistook him for Changting. His heart seemed to have found sustenance again, but he didn't want to admit it.
Lan Lin put down his hand and said in a deep voice: "That old guy talks too much, I have to punish him properly!"
Lin Xie smiled slightly, then took the empty bowl handed over by Lan Lin, and said: "Slave, your Majesty, please think twice. After all, in the Hot Spring Villa, Pharmacist Chen is the only one who can treat you!"
Lan Lin looked at him and said, "How did you tell the three concubines about Gu Zhongjian's injury?"
Lin Xie immediately said: "I was afraid that the three empresses would be worried, so I didn't tell them that Your Majesty was stabbed and injured. I just said that Your Majesty was hunting in the forest and caught a cold. He contracted the wind and needed to rest!"
Lan Lin naturally knew what Lin Xie was thinking, and he did not dare to tell the matter when he was unconscious. Once it is revealed, if he has any shortcomings or shortcomings, then he, as the accompanying chief eunuch, will be blamed and must be buried with the king.
Lan Lin reached out and rubbed his brow and said, "Okay, let's just say it this way, so as not to cause people to make random guesses and cause trouble after returning to the palace!"
"Yes! And the assassin who assassinated His Majesty in Suoyun Lake yesterday, do you want to draw a portrait and order someone to arrest him?" Lin Xie asked again.
Lan Lin said: "You don't have to worry about what's going on right now, I have my own plan."
"Yes, Your Majesty was injured by an assassin, and I will send extra manpower to guard the Hot Spring Villa. Please rest assured that Your Majesty will rest in the Hot Spring Villa for the next few days, and do not go out."
Lan Lin nodded and said, "I understand."
Lin Xie said: "In order to prevent the three empresses from worrying, I have to go and report to them that they are safe! Does Your Majesty want them to come over and say hello to you?"
Lan Lin felt upset, shook his head and said: "Let Gu Qingqing for two days first, just say that Gu is infected with wind and cold, it is not suitable to receive him, and he needs to stay in bed to rest!"
