He frowned slightly, put down the white tea cup in his hand, rubbed it gently with his thumb, and then said: "Chang Ting has been away from Gu for so many years, Gu has never thought of him as dead, because that would make Gu feel that he has really completely disappeared from this world. Now. Gu...can't accept the days without him. You should know that your brother and I have always had a good relationship! I regard him as a relative, and he is also the person I love most!"
When Chang Si heard what Lan Lin was saying at this moment, he suddenly felt wet with tears, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother will be very happy if he has the chance to hear this. He has always regarded His Majesty as his confidant and his forever companion in this life. Following is everything to him, his life, his...favorite!"
Lan Lin looked at Changsi who was crying in pain and whispered:
"You are not wrong, Gu will not blame you! It was all because of Gu's wanton behavior that he killed your brother! Many nights, Gu would think that if Gu had not been willful that day and had to go hunting, maybe Changting would not have die!"
"For so many years, he and Gu have walked side by side and encountered many dangerous storms, but they have not died. Even when the Queen Mother forced the palace to rebel, he was not dead after being hit by several arrows, but he died in an avalanche. Among them. The day he died, I felt like the stars were falling and the snow was falling."
"For so many years, I couldn't think of him as dead. I have been lying to myself. He just took a boat to travel far away. The country of Zhuilan is so small, and the sea outside is so vast. The sky is huge. He wants to see all the world. , it will take a long, long time... Gu is just waiting for him to come back!"
When Lan Lin said this, he lowered his head, and a drop of hot tears fell into the green tea, causing ripples in the tea soup to splash. He choked and said:
"Until I met Lin Xie, when I saw him for the first time, I just felt in a trance, as if... I saw your brother Changting coming back. The feeling of seeing him again after a long separation made Gu Cheng frightened."
"When he stretched out his hand to pull Gu, Gu took it carefully, but didn't dare to hold it, for fear that he was the snow and would melt as soon as he held it. But Dang... But Dang Gu held his hand. When he touched his palm, he found that the hand was still so soft and warm. This touch made Gu understand that Changting was really back."
"This real touch brought Gu... who had spent countless nights relying on fantasy alone to survive! Gu held Lin Xie's hand tightly, thinking that he had also grabbed Changting's hand... In the past two years, Gu...Gu Zhen thought of him as your brother among countless illusions!"
"If that person is really your brother, Gu will desperately embrace him in his arms. He will definitely understand Gu's enthusiasm. He will know how lonely Gu is, how much he misses him, misses him, and loves him deeply. Hold him."
When Lan Lin said this, he choked up and couldn't speak any more. He felt extremely painful in his heart. Who could he express these words to in so many years? The only option is to tell Changsi.
He raised his head and tried desperately to stop the tears in his eyes, but the tears kept pouring out and fell from his slightly red neck. His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he suppressed the sadness and continued:
"But! That person is Lin Xie. No matter how much he looks like your brother, he is not Changting. You can get someone by doing whatever you want, but you will never get his heart. He is not your brother."
"I will be loyal to Gu wholeheartedly and love Gu deeply. There can only be one such a good Changting in the world, and I will never meet Gu again in this life. So Gu... is wishful thinking, and even the shadow of Changting wants to stay. around."
At this point, Lan Lin suddenly remembered that Chang Ting once said that he was his shadow and that he would always be inseparable from him. Now he suddenly realized that it was not Chang Ting who was his shadow, but that he was Chang Ting's shadow. Now, he has lost his mind and his soul has disappeared.
Lin Xie came back. He thought he had found a host and tried desperately to fuse with it, but he was shocked to realize that everything was just a joke!
He has a strong obsession and a hot heart, but he doesn't dare to get too close. In his heart, he understood better than anyone else that Lin Xie rejected him thousands of miles away. He understood that he could easily enter a person's heart before, but now he could not enter a person's heart despite all his efforts.
This kind of suffering was so painful that it made him physically and mentally exhausted, making it difficult for him to move forward. He could only torture himself continuously and suppress the savage beast that suppressed him again and again. He didn't know how long he could control it. If he could behave uncontrollably, he would probably Even Changting's shadow will be lost. For Lin Xie, he is more afraid of the pain of losing than his passionate love.
After listening to Lan Lin's unabashed inner monologue with his own ears, Chang Si's resentment over the years seemed to have disappeared. He looked at him with tears in his eyes and said:
"King Zhuilan, perhaps no one in this world knows your pain, but at this moment I understand that you are really pitiful and sad. As the most supreme person in the Kingdom of Zhuilan, you live such a pitiful life. Maybe this It’s your sin, your debt!”
"I won't come to kill you again, and you don't have to worry about it in the future! That person really looks like him, and people can't help but want to get close to him. But as you said, Changting is unique in the world. You I will never find someone as simple as him in my life, who will follow you wholeheartedly and risk his life to love you!"
"Although you can't be said to be a good emperor, you are still very affectionate and loyal to my brother. I finally understand that you have not let him down in these years! But I still feel that for someone like you, he should not worth!"
"Gu Ye feels that it's not worth it for someone like Gu! But Changting still foolishly gave everything for me, including his life——"
The two of them were relatively silent in the tea room. At this time, Lin Xie walked straight over, stood outside the door and saluted: "Your Majesty - I have prepared a dinner for Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please move on!"
After speaking, he looked up and saw that the white sliding door of the tea room was ajar. One of the doors was deliberately closed. Lan Lin in the room picked up the tea cup and lowered his head to sip. There was no trace of panic. Ling stood in the tea room. Outsiders dispelled their suspicions.
He put down the cup of warm tea, stood up, and pushed the door open.
Lin Xie followed him and glanced sideways at the guard standing aside. The guard immediately understood what he meant and nodded. However, Lan Lin, who was walking in front, did not notice these slight details.
After Lan Lin left, the few guards who stayed in the tea room worked together to catch Chang Si hiding in the tea room.
Lin Xie took advantage of the time when the three concubines were serving Lan Lin's meal, and came to interrogate this moment.
In the tea room, Chang Si was tied up and knelt down. When he saw the door open, he could no longer take his eyes away from Lin Xie.
"Eunuch Lin!"
The guard saluted Lin Xie. When Lin Xie saw Chang Si, he narrowed his cold eyes and said with a smile: "There is indeed someone in the tea room!"
Lin Xie said coldly: "You are the assassin who assassinated His Majesty that day! Tell me - why did you assassinate His Majesty?"
Chang Si put his head aside and did not want to answer.
Lin Xie sneered and said: "It seems that you are quite stubborn, but I have many means to make you talk."
Chang Si said: "Do you really want to know why I wanted to assassinate King Zhui Lan?"
Lin Xie nodded and said, "Of course!"
Changsi said: "I can tell you, but you have to step back."
Lin Xie frowned slightly, then waved his hand to signal everyone to leave, and the guards turned and left.
He met Chang Si's eyes, and then said: "Now you can say it!"
Chang Si looked directly at his face and looked carefully. The man in front of him looked too much like his brother Chang Ting, but compared with Chang Ting, he had a touch of femininity as a eunuch. He said: "My name is Chang Si, and I am from Chang Ting." younger brother!"
Lin Xie was startled, his pupils trembling slightly.
Changsi continued: "You may not know who my brother is. He was the personal guard of King Zhuilan when he was a boy. He was a person who swore to follow him to the death and be loyal to him. And he looks very much like Eunuch Lin... …”
After listening to Chang Si's story about Lan Lin and Chang Ting, Lin Xie felt a buzzing in his head.
Chang Si stared at the familiar face in front of him and said, "That's why I thought of you as my brother when I first saw you!"
Lin Xie took a deep breath, calmed down, then looked at Chang Si and said, "So Your Majesty insists on keeping me by your side because I look a lot like your brother Changting!"
Changsi nodded.
Lin Xie felt a confusion in his mind. Although he had already known that he looked like Chang Ting, and that Chang Ting and Lan Lin had a past, and that he was Chang Ting's shadow, he never thought that Lan Lin had a deep relationship with him in his heart. There is such an unforgettable love buried there.
This relationship was so heavy that he began to have a different view of Lan Lin. He was not as cold and cruel as he thought in his heart. He was also a person of flesh and blood and emotions.
He always thought that Lan Lin was the kind of person who would wantonly take possession of something he liked and play with it, but it turned out that everything happened for a reason.
Lin Xie leaned on the back of the chair, then raised his hand to rub his eyebrows, let out a long sigh, and then said to Chang Si: "Since you are Changting's younger brother, I don't think His Majesty has any intention of killing you. , let you go..."
After he finished speaking, he pulled out the dagger from his waist, cut off the rope that bound Chang Si, and then turned around and left staggeringly.
When he walked to the door of the tea room, Chang Si stopped him: "Lin Xie, I want to know what kind of feelings you have for Lan Lin?"
Lin Xie stood in front of the white door, stretched out his right hand to protect the door frame, turned his face sideways, and said calmly: "The relationship between master and servant!"
After saying that, he left directly.
In the palace, Lan Lin dismissed the three concubines who wanted to sleep with him and was drinking wine angrily.
Lin Xie hurried over, bent down and saluted, "I'm here to see your majesty! I heard that your majesty is looking for a minion!"
Lan Lin clenched his left hand into a fist, suppressing his anger and said: "The Gu sect has been looking for you for a long time, where did you die?"
Lin Xie said: "Your Majesty, your wound has almost healed, so I went to Pharmacist Chen to change the prescription for you."
"Hmph!" Lan Lin sneered and said: "You think of me as a mule or a horse. When I am just a little bit old, I will arrange for people to come to sleep with me. There will be three at a time. Do you want me to drain myself to death?"
