**** creates a sense of guilt. The bigger the ****, the greater the sense of guilt. Ever since I agreed to Xia Yan, something has been tearing and struggling in my conscience, making me miserable.
Some people say that everyone has a thorn in their conscience. If you start to do something that makes your conscience uneasy, this thorn will prick you and make you feel uncomfortable. When you do too many unscrupulous things, a thick layer of it will grow on your conscience.
The scab will no longer hurt you.
I don’t know when I will be able to develop such a skill, to the point where my conscience can be calm no matter how many bad things I do.
Xia Yan still has something to arrange, so I'll take the first step.
I knew that he intended to give me the opportunity to meet and talk with Qi Xuan. I silently accepted this arrangement. I dismissed Xiao Junzi and walked towards Chunxi Palace alone.
Along the way, we passed the Qiu Jing Pavilion. The wind blew, and the salty smell of lake water filled the air. This smell made me suddenly wake up.
What am I going to do? Looking for Qi Xuan?
I stood there blankly. Not far from Qiu Jing Pavilion was the largest pond in the palace, Taiye Pond.
I walked in that direction as if I was possessed by a demon. Everyone in the palace looked at me in surprise along the way. I knew that they were curious about why I was still staying here when the dinner time was almost here.
The scenery in front of us is beautiful, with the endless blue waves of Taiye Lake. On a windless night, the moon above our head is reflected in the lake like a silver plate.
Standing by the beautiful Taiye Pond, I suddenly wondered if anyone had drowned here. If so, how long would it take for someone to discover it?
I often hear old people say that the souls of people who drowned will stay in the lake, and they must find a scapegoat before they can be reincarnated as a human being. I also heard that among all the people who died, those who died by drowning were the most terrifying. The skin all over their body was swollen with blisters, and they were beyond recognition.
If you are unlucky, you may be swallowed by the fish in the pond, and you will not be able to tell who is who.
Unless I have something on me to prove my identity, I thought about it carefully. The only dagger that can prove my identity has been pawned. If I jump now, I am afraid no one will find it. When my body comes up, it will probably be...
Three days later...three days...I should have been swollen by the blisters by then, right?
Suddenly a warm arm was placed on his shoulder.
I turned around quickly and saw a pair of dark and warm eyes.
The curled eyelashes cast a shadow on the perfect cheeks, the plump red lips were slightly curled up in a smile, the mountains in the distance were as dark as black, and the two thick eyebrows were slightly raised.
The past few years suddenly came to my mind, and when I saw him, I suddenly didn’t want to die.

【Panlong Palace】
"Do you really think Changting has the ability to deceive Qi Xuan?" A cynical voice came from a dark corner.
Xia Yan glanced at the figure: "How could I be so stupid?"
"Insidious and cunning! He used such a despicable method to drive a wedge between Chang Ting and Qi Xuan!" the voice lamented.
"Is it dirty?" Xia Yan asked disapprovingly.
"Absolutely vile!" the man said firmly.
"Then you think of someone who's less vile?" Xia Yan said playfully.
The man thought for a moment, shook his head, and said regretfully: "I'm not as good as you in this regard!"
"Let's go, little handsome young master!" Xia Yan shrugged nonchalantly and strode out of the palace.
