The prince's army occupied the palace with overwhelming force. The prince and his men frantically searched for Shen Shu all night, but could not find her anywhere.
The next day, when the first ray of sunlight from the sky shone into the palace, Shen Xiao and Jing Ninghou rushed in with their army.
The prince stood on the high platform and lowered his eyes as he watched Shen Xiao and his men kill his army to pieces.
He can't understand.
Obviously he had been wary of Shen Xiao, but the people he sent to monitor Shen Xiao and Jingninghou Mansion did not notice anything unusual...
But he probably won't have the chance to find out anymore.
The guard beside him said, "Your Highness, according to this momentum, Marquis Jingning will annihilate all our people in less than an hour."
"Your Highness, let's leave while there is still time."
The prince lowered his eyes, glanced at the palace with some reluctance, and then asked, "Have you found A'luo?"
"We searched all over the palace and couldn't find it."
The prince hesitated for a moment.
Seeing the prince's hesitation, the guard said, "Your Highness, please keep the green hills here so that you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Let's save our lives first and then come back later!"
At this moment, the blood-red Shen Xiao who was killed under the high platform suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the prince who was standing on the high platform.
The prince was frightened and took a step back, but finally made up his mind, "Let's go!"
When Shen Xiao saw the prince trying to escape, he was so angry that he ran up the stairs to chase him, but was stopped by the people around him. He was busy dealing with the prince's people and could only watch the prince leave.
Chang Xin, who was on the side, was still protecting Shen Xiao as he moved forward. When he saw the prince running away, he suddenly said loudly, "Hey! Look! Your master has run away!"
The soldiers under the prince were stunned for a moment, then looked towards the high platform, and sure enough they saw! The prince had run away!
They had been tired for a day and a night, and they had spent a lot of energy on entering the palace. Now facing the people in Jingninghou, they were using their last bit of perseverance to resist. When they saw the prince running away, they all became angry. gas.
Seeing this, Chang Xin showed his little tiger fangs again. Even though his face was covered with blood, he still couldn't hide his youthful spirit, "Hey, your master has run away, so don't resist! Surrender now! We can start from It’s so easy!”
The group of people thought for a moment, and finally raised their hands. Although there were a few who refused to admit defeat, they still couldn't make it happen.
Chang Xin helped Shen Xiao to deal with the people who were blocking him. Shen Xiao rushed forward in a hurry, wanting to catch the prince, but he never thought that in this moment, the prince had completely disappeared.
Shen Xiao searched eagerly in an attempt to find the prince. Chang Xin looked at his figure like a headless fly and pondered for a moment, "There are many secret passages in the palace. The prince should have entered the secret passage by now."
Shen Xiao quickly asked people to search the secret passages of the palace, but they did not find the prince, only Shen Shu.
"Sister!" He quickly picked up Shen Shu and went to find a doctor for her.
Then he remembered that Lin Zhi seemed to be the best doctor, so he quickly asked the person next to him, "Where is King Bei'an?"
Chang Xin was stunned, "I don't know, the prince disappeared after entering the palace."
Shen Xiao looked at Shen Shu who was still unconscious and gritted his teeth, "Look for it!"
…
When Shen Shu woke up again, it was already three days later.
She opened her eyes drowsily and looked at the red beams above her head for a while. After her memory was blurred for a while, she suddenly remembered what Lin Zhi said to her before she fell into coma.
She stood up suddenly and asked the people around her, "Where is Lin Zhi?"
Shen Ci, who was standing by, was startled when he saw her suddenly waking up, and then said, "The prince has been missing for three days, and Xiao'er has been looking for him these days."
Shen Shu immediately stood up and wanted to get out of bed, but Shen Ci quickly stopped her, "Aluo, don't move, you are pregnant."
Shen Shu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly lowered her eyes and took her own pulse according to the method Lin taught her.
really……
This is the child they have worked hard for for a long time and looked forward to for countless days and nights...
Her eyes suddenly turned red.
Seeing her like this, Shen Ci didn't dare to provoke her. He only raised his hand softly and comforted her back, "Aluo, don't worry. The situation is now under control by father and Xiao'er. If we work harder, we can always find it. The prince’s.”
Shen Shu shook her head, remembering what Lin Zhi said to her before she fell into coma.
When she saw Lin Zhi, she was so happy that she forgot that they were facing an emperor after all.
How could a majestic emperor be so easy to deal with? If her guess was correct, there must be something wrong with the spice...
"Aluo..." Shen Ci was afraid that she would be sad, so she quickly opened her mouth and wanted to continue to advise her, but before thinking, Shen Shu suddenly raised her eyes and tried her best to look at her with a smile, "Lin Zhi will definitely be alive. "
"We will definitely find him."
Facing her sister's abnormality, Shen Ci didn't know how to continue to comfort her for a moment, so she just nodded, "Okay."
…
Half a month later, the flowers planted by Shen Shu in the spring failed to bloom.
It was a flower that Lin Zhi had longed for and looked at every day. When the flowers bloomed, Lin Zhi held Shen Shu's hand to look at them.
Now, they are all withered and can no longer exude any vitality.
Shen Shu looked at the flowers for a long time, and when Changfeng thought she was about to shed tears, she suddenly lowered her body and peeled off the seeds hidden in the withered flower bones one by one.
Even if the flowers fail this year, as long as they are planted again next spring, the bright flowers will bloom again.
A month later, Shen Xiao ascended the throne.
He originally wanted to ascend the throne after finding Lin Zhi, but the old officials in the court forced him hard, so the young man was forced to put on a dragon robe and hold a ceremony to enthrone him.
On the day the young man ascended the throne, the whole city celebrated. Even Shen Shu entered the palace, raised her eyes to look at her younger brother who was much taller than herself, and gave him a gentle smile.
Two months later, it was winter, and Shen Shu's belly began to bulge slightly.
In the past two months, she never stopped looking for Lin Zhi. Even if the result she got was disappointment every time, she never gave up.
Even Chang Sheng couldn't bear to see how stubborn she was. He wanted to go forward to persuade her, but was stopped by Chang Lan.
Chang Sheng was just about to argue with Chang Lan angrily, but he saw that Chang Lan's eyes were a little red and his voice was crying, "You're not allowed to go."
"You will always find it."
Changsheng pursed his lips, and then suddenly turned around silently.
Seeing that he suddenly left, Chang Lan asked again, "What are you doing?"
Changsheng didn't look back, he just walked forward, "I'm going to find Changning!"
At the beginning, so many people in the palace saw that it was Chang Ning who left the palace carrying Lin Zhi on his back.
Chang Lan stopped talking again and turned her head to see Shen Shu wearing a red dress and standing on the thin snow to look at the plum blossoms.
She remembered that Lin Zhi used to like to stand in that position and look at the plum blossoms.
She raised her head and looked for a while, then suddenly lowered her head to look at the brocade bag hanging on her body.
There are also lilies Lin Zhi embroidered for her.
She looked carefully at the lilies on it for a while. She didn't notice it when she was in the palace. When she came back, she found that there were a lot of blood stains on the lilies.
She tried hard to wash it off, but she couldn't wash it off completely, leaving a faint red streak on it.
Maybe the red was too dazzling, and it made her eyes red.
She still remembered the look on Lin Zhi's face as he embroidered the brocade bag. She asked what the pills were for, but Lin Zhi just comforted her in a low voice and did not tell her.
Now she finally understands.
It turned out that he had already prepared her retreat way back then.
Three months later, bamboo forest in the mountains.
The warm winter sun shone on Lin Zhi's face, bringing a bit of warmth and peace to his whole body. In the only warmth in this winter, he trembled his eyelashes and slowly opened his eyes.
It had been more than three months since he had opened his eyes. When he saw the sun again, he subconsciously closed his eyes again. It was not until he tried for a long time that he could clearly see the scenery in front of him.
Strange house, strange place.
He frowned, and then his eyes fell on the man standing in front of the window, mixing the medicine in the drum.
Even with his back turned, he could see that the other person was getting more and more violent in his actions.
Lin Zhi suddenly raised his lips, showed a smile, and then said firmly, "Uncle."
Chang Ning's hand while mixing the medicine paused for a moment, then suddenly turned his head to look at Lin Zhi.
"I've guessed it a long time ago." He tried his best to stand up and showed a proud smile to Chang Ning.
"Only you would like to use the silly method of throwing dice to make decisions, and only you can always find all kinds of weird herbs."
After Chang Ning looked at him for a long time, he suddenly sneered, "Are you using me?"
There was silence in the room. The sunlight happened to shine on Lin Zhi's face, while Chang Ning, whose back was turned to him, happened to be in the dark.
Lin Zhi raised his head, tried his best to meet Chang Ning's eyes in the dark, and chuckled, "Uncle is also using me."
