At night, the moon is like silver, and stars are dotted in the quiet night sky.

A man in a black cloak was riding a tall horse on a path in the forest.

The sound of horse hooves spread throughout the mountain forest. There were desolate wild forests on both sides of the road. It was pitch black and only the moonlight illuminated the withered ancient trees. The sound of howling wolves could be heard from time to time, which was shocking.

Occasionally, a few night cats passed over his head, with a dark whistling sound. The man looked around from time to time, his eyes were clear and deep, and he saw more through the darkness, but he did not stop, without any fear. He continued to move forward with a tight frown.

Finally, he arrived at an abandoned temple, which exuded an old atmosphere. It was once a place where people burned incense and prayed for peace, but now, no one cares about it.

The man got off his horse and walked into the temple. A gust of wind blew by. He seemed to feel something uneasy. He flashed and took out a long sword in his hand. The blade of the sword emitted cold light, and the slightest sound of wind was also cut by the sword. The temple was very dark. It was very cold, and only a tiny bit of moonlight filtered through, illuminating a corner of the temple.

The man pointed the tip of his sword toward the darkness and walked inside. He came to a small palace, a palace of silence, emitting a suffocating stench.

A vague figure loomed in front of him, with a deep outline. The abbot Tianfa, who was wearing a red cassock, made a Namaste salute to the man, "His Royal Highness."

Song Yanxing then put the sword back into the scabbard, revealing his handsome face under the cloak, nodded and said, "Abbot Tianfa." Song Yanxing scanned the place, and finally his eyes rested on the cold face of Abbot Tianfa.

Abbot Tianfa nodded, took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Song Yanxing. Song Yanxing reached out to take it, opened it and took a look, his eyes suddenly became dark, and he stuffed the letter into his arms, "I will keep the things today in my heart. I would like to thank the abbot on behalf of the people of Dongling."

Abbot Tianfa nodded, with a calm and indifferent expression, and said, "The saint is unkind and treats the hearts of the people as stupid dogs. The poor monk only hopes that your highness can be a wise king in the future."

"The people are the most valuable, the country is second, and the king is the least important. This is what Gu's master once said to Gu, and I will always remember it." Song Yanxing's dark eyes seemed to contain the whole world, "Every day when Gu is alone, Gu will always remember it." Then I will guard the people of Dongling for one day."

Abbot Tianfa looked at Song Yanxing steadily, his eyes were scrutinizing. After a long time, he nodded and said, "It is Dongling's blessing to have His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After finishing speaking, Abbot Tianfa performed another Namaste and said, "I have some important matters to deal with, so I'll go ahead."

"Abbot Tianfa, be careful all the way."

Abbot Tianfa turned around and walked away from the other side of the temple.

Song Yanxing did not stay long. After a quick glance, he immediately left the temple and rode along the steep mountain road.

In Shangjing City, the lights were bright and the streets were bustling. Song Yanxing rode his horse to an alley. After tying the horse to the courtyard behind the teahouse, his figure reappeared in the alley. Standing on tiptoes, Song Yanxing jumped And up.

After a few jumps, he landed in a familiar courtyard.

"Who?"

Zhong Xia heard the movement in the yard, and immediately opened the door and stuck his head out. Just as he was about to shout, he heard the cold voice of the man in black in the yard, "It's Gu."

Zhong Xia quickly opened the door and walked out. He bowed respectfully to Song Yan and said, "Your Highness."

Song Yanxing nodded, walked around Zhongxia, and said, "Watch the yard and let me know if someone comes."

Zhong Xia boldly said, "The lady has rested, Your Highness."

"It's better to be alone." After saying that, he entered the house. Song Yanxing couldn't help but lighten his steps and slowly walked to the edge of the bed.

Li Miaoyi was lying on the bed, wearing a quilt, no makeup on her face, her bright eyes were closed tightly, she didn't know what sweet dream she had, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, her long hair spread on the pillow, like a pool of black water, she breathed slowly It's like a boat rippling slowly on a quiet lake.

The room was filled with a light aroma.

Song Yanxing's eyes were hot and focused, fixedly looking at Li Miaoyi lying on the bed, with a faint morbid light shining on her face. Under the moonlight, her face was as bright as the autumn moon.

After a long time, he walked forward, smiled silently, his eyes full of endearment, stretched out his hand to brush away a stray hair from her face, lowered his head, and gently touched her red lips with his lips. With endless tenderness.

His wish is very simple, that is, to see Li Miaoyi every day, even if he just takes a look at her from a distance.

Song Yanxing stood beside the bed for a long time, the crescent moon was cool and gentle. After a long time, Song Yanxing turned around and left, leaving only a touch of cedar fragrance in the room.

……

In a flash, Song Yanxing entered the third prince's residence. Suddenly, there was a noise in the house. When Xiao Qi heard the noise, he ducked into the house and bowed respectfully, "Your Highness."

Song Yanxing took off his cloak, put it aside, and asked, "Why are you so anxious?"

Xiao Qi lowered his head and said, "Prince Rui was drunk just now. He went wrong and came to your yard, but I always felt something strange. Just now I thought it was the guard next to Prince Rui who came in."

Song Yanxing paused his hands and frowned, "Is there anything else going on in the house?"

Xiao Qi said, "Marquis Pingyang accidentally broke into the third prince's bedroom while drunk, but was stopped by the maid next to her, so nothing serious happened."

Song Yanxing's eyes flashed slightly. First he left the Third Prince's Mansion, then Prince Rui accidentally broke into the courtyard drunk, and finally Marquis Pingyang accidentally broke into the bedroom. It was really interesting, how could it be just a coincidence.

Song Yanxing nodded and said, "Pay more attention to Prince Rui's movements these days."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Only then did Song Yanxing take out the letter from Abbot Tianfa that he had just given to him in the ruined temple. The frown on his brow deepened as he closed his eyes and handed the letter to Xiao Qi with trembling hands.

Xiao Qi took it and whispered, "How is this possible? How could it be like this?" After saying that, Xiao Qi raised his head and looked at Song Yanxing in disbelief, and asked, "Where did this letter from Your Highness come from? The contents in it are all It is true?"

Song Yanxing lowered his head, sighed, and said, "This is what Abbot Tianfa gave to Gu, but the things inside are too shocking." After a pause, he said, "Let Wu Xiu come back and stare at Prime Minister Liu."

"But Your Highness, if Wu Xiu comes back, what will happen to the safety of the eldest prince?"

Song Yanxing chuckled, shook his head, and said nothing. He stretched out his hand, and Xiao Qi immediately stepped forward and put the letter in his hand. After taking it, Song Yanxing waved his hand, and Xiao Qi respectfully stepped back.

Song Yanxing sat under the candlelight with deep eyes. His body became colder and colder, and there was thick ink in his eyes that could not be wiped away.
