There was a storm inside the house, and it was pitch black. Lin Sishen was lying on the bed with sweat all over her head. She seemed to have had some nightmare, her brows were frowning and her face was pale, and she occasionally let out some rapid and vague murmurs.
It was not until she woke up from her dream and sat up suddenly that she found that the acupoints that Chen Qingwan had been undone at some point had been untied. She gasped in a restless look, wiped away the cold sweat from her forehead, raised her eyes and looked around anxiously.
The candlesticks inside the house were not lit, only the lanterns shaking in the wind and rain under the outdoor corridor, faintly shining in. Apart from the sound of wind and rain, there was no sound around, and there was no strange furnishings that caught your eyes.
Chen Qingwan, who was originally with Lin Sishen, no longer knew where to go.
When Lin Sishen first learned the truth about the incident that year, he was indeed a little anxious and confused. However, after a sleepless sleep, she had recovered from calmness. She wanted to get up to find Chen Qingwan and ask what was going on.
Lin Sishen lifted the quilt and jumped out of bed in a hurry. As soon as he pushed open the door, he was poured over by the cold wind mixed with rain outside the door. She shrank her neck and turned back.
When she got up, she saw a fur coat placed on the wooden table beside the bed. She took it to protect the cold, and it happened to fit it. It was obviously someone specially prepared for her.
Put on a warm fur coat, Lin Sishen hurriedly stepped out of the room, followed the route he came, and quickly walked towards the lobby of the main building of Yixian Tower.
At that time, the Yixian Tower, which carved beams and painted buildings, was as cold as empty as empty. The raging wind passed through the rockery on the rockery and made a roar like a beast, perhaps it was a ghost crying and howling more appropriate.
In addition, the lanterns hanging in the corridor and shaking constantly by the cold wind and rain, the faint light and shadows flashed, twisting the shadow of Lin Sishen on the ground.
On the winding and narrow corridor, only Lin Sishen was walking alone. Such a strange atmosphere made Lin Sishen, who had always disbelief of ghosts and gods, feel a little nervous. She speeded up and walked through a wooden corridor on the lake. She occasionally raised her eyes and saw a little light floating from a distance, approaching herself.
Lin Sishen was not panicked either. He stood there quietly for a while. After the light became closer, he saw clearly that it was a maid carrying a lantern. She felt relieved and quickly walked up to him.
After the two of them collided head-on, the maid bowed slightly without being humble and arrogant: "Mr. Lin, the princess and Mr. Bai were waiting in the lobby for a long time, and I came to lead the way."
Lin Sishen looked up and down at the maid. The maid was not very old and was wearing a common servant's robe. Although she looked respectfully, her expression was a little calm.
When she came to Yixian Tower, Lin Sishen had also glanced at the maid from afar. After retracting her gaze, she raised her sleeve and waved it gently, and signaled: "Lead the way."
Lin Sishen was very confused and didn't pay much attention to the maid leading the way in front of him. However, he occasionally glanced out of the corner of his eyes and soon discovered that the maid was walking like a raccoon cat paced without making any sound.
It seems that this ordinary maid is still a good trainer.
Lin Sishen calmed down and asked casually: "I heard that your master has a good relationship with the princess?"
The maid stopped when she heard this, turned around and owed her body, and replied respectfully: "Report to Lord Lin, I don't know how to criticize the relationship between the master and the princess, but I only know that the master had ordered that if the princess comes here, it would be like the master who came in person, and there would be no negligence at all."
Lin Sishen nodded, said nothing, but raised her chin slightly and signaled her to continue leading the way.
Lin Sishen, the owner of Yixian Tower, once met him. He was an artful businessman. If Chen Qingwan had a good personal relationship with him, Lin Sishen did not believe it. Chen Qingwan would not make friends with such profit-oriented merchants.
But since Chen Qingwan was able to come to Yixianlou privately, she dared to talk to her about the incident back then, which shows that she is very familiar with Yixianlou.
From this point of view, there is probably another master behind the master of the Immortal Tower. I think Chen Qingwan is probably the one she trusts very much. Even if it is not her.
Just as I was thinking about it, I soon arrived at the lobby of the main building.
Before she got close, Lin Sishen smelled a strong smell of wine and heard the sound of Bai Tingshan faintly from the lobby. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, calming her mind.
"Princess Qibing, Lord Lin brings it."
After the maid reported it, Lin Sishen stepped forward with a expressionless face, stepped over the threshold and looked up.
In the huge hall, Chen Qingwan was sitting face to face with Baitingshan. The stove beside him was warming wine, and a copper hot pot was placed on the wooden table in the middle. The soup in the pot was steaming hot, and there were a lot of cut raw meat and some vegetables and fruits on both sides.
Seeing Lin Sishen enter, Chen Qingwan stepped back from the maid and looked up at Lin Sishen, with a hint of worry in her expression. She glanced over gently, and saw that Lin Sishen's expression was calm, then she curled her lips and smiled, waved her hand gently, and signaled her to come forward.
Bai Tingshan raised his hand to support his forehead, his body leaned towards Chen Qingwan, and his posture was quite lazy and relaxed. When he saw Lin Sishen appear, he frowned quietly, and then laughed loudly: "Young Master Lin is a coincidence. If he came later, he would probably have no good fortune."
Perhaps Lin Sishen was in a bad mood today, and saw Bai Tingshan's slanderous disobedience. He obviously wanted her to not come, but he still pretended to be like this. She felt a little disgusted when she looked at her.
She walked quickly without saying a word, walked past Chen Qingwan, and flicked her sleeves and sat down next to the main seat at the door. Her tone seemed to have a thorn, and she said sarcastically: "I did come by a coincidence, but I was afraid that the princess and Mr. Bai would be intrigued."
Seeing that she was not polite and sarcastic, Bai Tingshan felt dissatisfied immediately, but he glanced at Chen Qingwan from the corner of his eyes, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only smile: "Young Master Lin is really joking."
Since Lin Sishen sat down, Chen Qingwan's eyes have been on her, always calm and gentle. Even if Lin Sishen looked like a hedgehog, she was not displeased at all when she opened her mouth.
She opened her lips quietly and said, "I have traveled a lot today, I guess you are hungry too."
Lin Sishen looked up at Chen Qingwan, and after a long time he lowered his head and responded: "Yes."
Originally, Lin Sishen had a lot to ask Chen Qingwan, but Bai Tingshan was there and she couldn't ask. The doubts and unwillingness in her heart torture her, making her feel a little restless.
She was unwilling to accept her father and brothers, and shedding her blood for the country, and shedding her blood until she died. She was unwilling to accept that the innocent soldiers who died unjustly. In the unwillingness, she even felt a little resentment.
The source of all this is just because of the emperor's own selfishness.
Both her father and Shen Qingwan knew the truth, but she knew nothing. Regardless of Chen Qingwan, even her father never intended to reveal the matter to her, and taught her to be loyal to the emperor and patriotism.
If Chen Qingwan hadn't informed her of this, she would have been kept in the dark like a fool.
Although Lin Sishen pretended to be calm and sat upright, his heart was already overturned. She couldn't listen to what Chen Qingwan and Bai Tingshan said in her ears.
It was not until Bai Tingshan poured her a glass of wine that she came to her senses a little, picked up the wine cup and wanted to drink it all.
Chen Qingwan seemed to notice her intention, and she held the cup tightly before she could hold it tightly. Chen Qingwan then pressed it gently on the back of her hand, and said softly with a frown with a faint eyebrows: "Your body has not been healed yet, so you should not harm your body by drinking too much."
Lin Sishen was stunned for a moment, and slowly let go of his hand under Shen Qingwan's gaze.
Bai Tingshan, who was standing beside him, raised his hand and patted his forehead gently, and said helplessly: "I have heard that Mr. Lin is weak and often needs to take medicine to nourish his body. This time, I am not considering it properly, so I shouldn't have received wine."
This was normal, but when Lin Sishen heard it, there was a little more sarcastic. She was already quite dissatisfied with Bai Tingshan, and now she was upset, and her face suddenly became dark when she heard this.
She turned her head and stared at Bai Tingshan, her eyes cold: "You shouldn't have brought wine, Mr. Bai really thinks this way in her heart?"
Bai Tingshan didn't seem to have expected Lin Sishen to react so abnormally. He seemed to be a little stunned. However, before he could speak to smooth things over, Lin Sishen pulled out the hand that was pressed by Chen Qingwan and said sarcastically: "I'm afraid that Mr. Bai is thinking in his heart that it is not that he shouldn't have come to get the wine, but that I shouldn't have come."
Bai Tingshan looked at Chen Qingwan: "It seems that Mr. Lin misunderstood what he meant, but he had no other intentions, but he just..."
The dissatisfaction in his heart seemed to have found a vent. Lin Sishen sneered a few times without raising his head: "I'm afraid I'm saying that Mr. Bai is thinking, right?"
After saying that, Lin Sishen lowered his eyes and looked at the wine cup in front of him, and said sarcastically: "Good wine and beautiful woman, I, a useless man who still needs medicine and stone to nourish my body, really disturbed Mr. Bai and the beautiful woman being alone."
Bai Tingshan was shocked when he heard this. He stood up and slowly leaned over to Lin Sishen and bowed, "Young Master Lin may have really misunderstood. If you offend Mr. Lin inadvertently, you hope Mr. Lin Haihan."
Lin Sishen didn't take this trick. She didn't give it to Baiting Mountain steps at all. Instead, she stood up and confronted him: "Everyone said that Mr. Bai is an open-minded and unruly talented man, but why didn't he dare to admit it openly in front of me? You have loved the princess for a long time and became bored when you saw me. Why should you pretend to be polite to me?"
Bai Tingshan had already given in, and it was obvious that Lin Sishen was aggressive, so he was no longer polite. He stood up and looked directly at Lin Sishen's gaze, and slowly spoke: "Even if you offend Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin doesn't have to involve the princess. Besides, whether you love the princess is in love with him, this matter may have nothing to do with Mr. Lin."
Lin Sishen curled his lips and smiled: "It has nothing to do with me?"
Baitingshan looked calm. He glanced at Lin Sishen faintly, as if he was a little disdainful: "Your order to leave and leave, Mr. Lin and the princess have nothing to do with him, so this matter naturally has nothing to do with Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin dare not admit his feelings for the princess. Then what identity does Mr. Lin interrogate his feelings?"

In 2018, my grandmother fell down and she could only lie on the bed and couldn't take care of herself. Two weeks ago, she accidentally fell off the bed. At first, she thought it was just a skin trauma, and she didn't feel any pain, so her family didn't pay attention.
Unexpectedly, it became more and more serious. I was sent to the hospital for an examination the next day after my birthday. I found that it was a fracture of the hip bone. Because I was too old, the doctor dared not accept it, so I asked him to send it back without even prescribing the medicine. She couldn't stand the pain every day and cried several times.
My grandmother is 84 years old this year, and she is so strong when she was young. When my mother was a child, her family was very poor. My grandfather thought it was useless for girls to go to school. She got up early and worked hard to earn money to support my mother and my aunt in school. Every time she talked about not letting my aunt drop out of school after junior high school, she secretly wiped her tears.
She once said that because she was illiterate, she lived so hard that her children must go to school.
But now she could only lie on the bed, unable to see clearly or hear, and she cried like a child and shed tears secretly. I could not do anything, and I could not even make her feel better.
I am afraid of losing her, but I am even more afraid that she will continue to be tortured by illness like this. If possible, I would rather I bear all the pain on her body, and it would be fine.
