The blanket covered my body immediately dispelled some chills, especially when I frowned slightly and raised my head, I felt that he was standing in front of me and bowing his head toward me, and my warm breathing blew on my face.

The temperature gradually became too hot.

I lowered my head, reached out and touched the blanket on my knees, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

However, I did not lie down to sleep, but tried hard to hold myself up. He watched me like this, and did not reach out to press me, just saying, "Don't you want to sleep for a while?"

I shook my head and said, "If your Majesty wants to rest, I can't speak."

“…”

He watched me like this, slowly turned around and walked back to the place just now to sit down.

The tent became quiet.

The two of them stopped talking, and could only hear each other's awake breathing sounding in the tent. I could hear him not fall asleep, and of course he could also hear me awake, but if this silence continued, it turned into silence.

Time passes by little by little in this atmosphere where needles cannot be pierced.

I guessed that it was almost dawn because there were footsteps of some people and horse hooves coming from outside, but at this moment, my eyes suddenly fell into darkness.

My breathing trembled a little.

But I immediately understood that the candle in the tent should have burned to the end.

The whole tent was dark. Although I couldn't see anything normally, the darkness still made me feel a little uneasy. Pei Yuanhao, who was sitting on the other side, was obviously still awake, did not move.

I tentatively reached out and subconsciously wanted to touch the candlestick, but at this moment, his voice suddenly sounded in the darkness-

"Don't move."

“…”

"Let me come."

After saying that, he really stood up and walked over, took a candle by himself, and then lit it with the fire stick. He could also feel that he was not proficient in his movements. He even hit the fire stick several times before it was ignited.

I looked at the faint light that was lit up again, and was silent for a while before I said softly: "Actually, Your Majesty doesn't have to do these things personally, you can have someone do it."

He held the candlestick and put it in front of me, and said lightly: "I just want to do something for you."

I said, "But if Your Majesty is less focused, perhaps the soldiers will win one day earlier if they are surrounded by the capital."

He was silent for a while, and then said, "At that time, Liu Qinghan entrusted me to treat you well."

“…”

"I have never thought about how to 'treat' someone well' before, but I have thought about treating you well."

“…”

"So, I want to do something for you."

The candlestick was placed beside the bed, and the swaying candlelight shone through my sight, and there was an orange and warm light. I tentatively stretched out my hand to the place where the light came from. The closer I got to the flame, the more I could feel a little warm temperature. As the temperature got higher and higher, my fingers became closer and closer to the flame.

Pei Yuanhao said: "Be careful!"

My fingers paused the moment before I felt the heat, chuckled, and said, "He is still smart. He just entrusted His Majesty to treat me well, and did not entrust me to His Majesty."

Pei Yuanhao looked at me: "Is this any difference?"

My fingers were moving at this safe distance, and in a short while, my cold fingertips were so warm that they regained a little consciousness.

I said, "It is nothing to entrust Your Majesty to treat me well. But if he entrusts me to His Majesty-"

“…”

"I'm going to go to the eighteen levels of hell to tear him apart!"

Pei Yuanhao was slightly stunned.

My fingers had completely warmed up, so I slowly withdrew my hand and retracted my crutch into my sleeve.

Pei Yuanhaoan looked at me quietly. After a long time, he said, "What are you thinking?"

“…”

"Do you miss him?"

I was silent for a moment and shook my head.

"Then what are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking about Tianzi Peak."

"Is that mountain you mentioned? Is it nearby?"

"Yes."

"Why have you always mentioned this place recently?"

"I don't know either, maybe it's because I'm getting closer to this place, or maybe it's because - because I want to see Mr. Huang."

“…”

"It was him who took me away from Shengjing and fled from Tianzi Peak back then."

“…”

"But I escaped, but he didn't."

“…”

"So I think..."

When I said this, my throat stuttered, and a strange feeling of sorrow surged up, but my heart was a little heavier than before. Pei Yuanhao kept looking at me quietly and asked, "What do you think?"

"I think...the Emperor Peak is like a boundary."

“…”

“A line in his life.”

“…”

"If he leaves there, he may be able to get a new life, but then I didn't have the ability to take him away from there."

Pei Yuanhao was silent for a while and said, "Then have you ever thought about what he should do in the future?"

I looked at the complicated lights, and after a while, I slowly pulled out of my emotions, looked at Pei Yuanhao again, and said, "Your Majesty is right."

"Um?"

"In fact, for him, the best place to go is still the grassland."

“…”

"He himself even said that he could not return to the Central Plains in this life."

"You don't want him to go back either?"

"I hope, but I can't solve Xue Muhua..., there is no way to solve the pain that she will bring to him, and I can't make him not feel sad and painful for that matter."

Pei Yuanhao said with a little heavy tone: "Yes, she is relaxed, she has forgotten all the past and can't remember anything."

He paused for a moment and suddenly said, "If he could also give him a bowl of marrow and make him forget everything in the past, would it be a good thing for him?"

Marrow-washing flower...

It was already so far away in my memory. At this time, he suddenly mentioned it, which made me stunned. It was not that I couldn't remember it, but that I was a little confused about this matter, as if I had been deliberately unwilling to think about it or touch it over the years.

I said softly, "I don't know."

"What about you?"

After he finished speaking, his breathing stopped.

My breathing was also paused, and after hesitating for a while, I said, "Me?"

"Yes," he looked at me and said, "If one day there is another bowl of marrow scrub in front of you, would you like to drink it?"

“…”

"Do you want to forget all the things that make you so painful?"

“…”

Unexpectedly, he would ask me such a question.

I think people like him never think about such problems. After all, his personality is that he will not regret anything he does, and he will never regret what consequences his actions have caused. However, he did not expect that he would ask me this question.

Marrow-washing flower...

I thought for a while and said, "When Pei Yuanxiu confronted me in Gantang Village, Yan Family Ancestral Hall, I took a knife and tried to stab him in the chest. If I really killed him that time, maybe there would be a lot of things next - at least some things, please, and it would be different."

Pei Yuanhao's breathing sank, probably because he felt strange. He didn't know why I said this, but he didn't say anything, but he just looked at me quietly.

I said, "But at that time, his fingers pressed on a heavy acupoint behind my head, and it was at this position-" I reached out and gestured, and said, "If his finger force urges me, my brain will be damaged, and I may be trapped in a fool forever and will never recover for a lifetime."

I felt his breathing heavier.

"At that time, I took a gamble and stabbed the knife into his chest."

“…”
