Pampering the sea

Cheng Yuan suddenly called Yan Zhan's name, like many times in childhood, with the care and comfort of a brother and friend, calling him in a gentle voice.

Yan Zhan, who was dressed in white fur, stopped suddenly, his back straightened, his lake blue robe swayed slightly in the wind, and the dark silver unicorn patterns on it shone with a cool luster under the snow light. He did not Turning around, he turned his head slowly, the lantern on the house was blown by the wind, shaking slowly, shining on his handsome side face like jade.

Cheng Yuan stood on the spot, his expression froze for a moment, he still opened his lips, and said slowly and in a deep voice:

"The heart is like a mirror, at this juncture, don't be fooled by beauty."

Yan Zhan's pupils contracted violently, and then gradually returned to normal.He finally turned around, lifted his thin chin slightly, sighed in a very low voice, and said to Cheng Yuan who was seven meters away:

"It has nothing to do with beauty, I just don't want to use such despicable means to deal with a woman, not any woman."

Cheng Yuan was taken aback, in fact, Yan Zhan had always been compassionate and kind, and he was full of righteousness. Unless necessary, he seldom took human life. Cheng Yuan should have guessed that his Master Yan was not keen on torturing people, but he Instinctively, Yan Zhan’s reluctance to Xin Yue seems to have some weird elements in it. It stands to reason that last time Xin Yue drove Yan Zhan and his carriage off the cliff and almost killed them. No matter how you say, his Lord Yan should also be ruthless. Let her know that they are not easy to mess with, instead of finding a doctor for her when she is sick, softening her heart when she is hungry, and not giving any punishment even if she is arrogant and never bows her head.

Even if she can't kill the killer, give her two lashes, it will be good to kill her.

Cheng Yuan frowned suspiciously: "Really? Is it really just disdain to attack women?"

Yan Zhan didn't answer his words, but turned around and said, "It's late now, I'm going to rest, you should go to bed earlier."

"Since you won't kill her, let her go." Cheng Yuan tentatively said, "It's useless to keep her here."

Yan Zhan's black boots froze for a moment, and then he stepped on a pile of snow and walked straight forward. There was only the creaking sound of his feet on the snow in the air, and he didn't make any answer.

-

I can't remember the first snow this year.

In the early morning, the snow-white flying catkins fell down like raindrops, and hurriedly slanted over from the sky, covering the sky everywhere. The white ink is so solid that it will not melt.

There is a red plum tree by the window of Yan Zhan's bedroom, which is already in full bloom, proud and frosty, but also has a charming and enchanting red color, standing gracefully on the branch, exuding an elegant and cold fragrance.

The fire in the room was burning very vigorously, exuding a faint scent of sandalwood, and fumigated the cold air that came in through the windows to produce a slightly softer scent. The temperature in the room was slightly high, Yan Zhan stretched out his clean and slender fingers , half open the window, let the clear cold fragrance from the courtyard slowly come in.

He put down the secret letter in his hand, stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples as if he was very tired.

At this moment, a slightly sharp call sounded outside, breaking the silence in the room.

"Master Yan, something happened."

When Yan Zhan put on the fox fur and rushed to the scene of the incident, he was not completely angry.However, he has always been mature and calm, good at restraint, after a brief frown, he was as calm as an ancient pool, but there was a faint coldness in his eyes.

"Who told you to do it to her?"

On the opposite side, Xin Yue leaned against the pillar quietly like a lifeless doll, her head was hanging weakly, her black hair was spread out on the corners of her shoulders in a mess, and her body was whipped in different sizes. Cruel red bloodstains bloomed even on the snow-white insteps.

"Master Yan, the emperor has an order, and my subordinates dare not disobey."

Cheng Zhu, who was dressed in black, walked out from the crowd and said neither humble nor overbearing.He looked calm, and faced Yan Zhan's cold questioning, he showed no sign of fear.

Yan Zhan raised his eyebrows, and said in a cold voice, "The emperor is far away in the sky, when did you order you to torture her?"

"The emperor once said to his subordinates that Master Yan is a kind person, and his subordinates can act privately and cheaply when necessary." Cheng Zhu continued, "For six days, except for cutting off food, Master Yan is extremely tolerant towards this woman. , The subordinates think that it is time to do something to this woman, the delay will inevitably lead to extra problems, the emperor attaches so much importance to Lord Yan, and Lord Yan will take care of all matters big and small, Lord Yan must not disappoint the high expectations of the emperor."

"So, are you teaching me a lesson?" Facing the supervisor Zhu Yan placed next to him, Yan Zhan's tone was not good, his eyes were faintly filled with anger, and he looked condescendingly at Cheng Zhu who bowed his head respectfully.

"My subordinates dare not."

Yan Zhan tried his best to restrain the anger rising in his chest. As a minister, he had too much to control himself. He devoted himself to the Great Ming Dynasty, but he didn't even have the most basic freedom. Although he still doesn't know what the emperor wants to arrest Xia Chuan Yizhi, and his words and deeds are monitored by the people arranged by the emperor. He wants to let someone go, don't want to do things he doesn't like, and wants to use fair methods Capture the target, instead of sacrificing a woman, brutally treating a woman, and capturing Xia Chuan Yizhi with despicable and disgusting means.

He thought for a long time last night, how is he who wants to lure Xia Chuan Yizhi to surrender himself by abusing Xin Yue, is he essentially different from those invaders he hates to the bone?

The same uncompromising means, the same disregard for human nature.

"I think you are very daring." Yan Zhan said almost word by word with a icy gleam in his eyes.

"Cough cough."

A sudden cough broke the tense situation, and Yan Zhan turned his gaze to Xin Yue who was coughing softly.

As if he had made a decision, his eyes sank, and he strode forward.

With a sound of swiping, Yan Zhan stretched out a sharp knife, and quickly picked at the ropes around Xin Yue's hands and feet, releasing her from the fetters on her body. Xin Yue was about to fall to the side with a bang, and Yan Zhan dropped the knife, Quickly supporting Xin Yue's body, he found that her body was icy cold, as if there was no temperature, and her small face was almost transparently white, Yan Zhan couldn't help but frown.

Just as Yan Zhan wanted to pat her face and ask her to open her closed eyes, Xin Yue's delicate eyebrows were slightly furrowed before she reached out, and she murmured like a child in a half-dream and half-awake:

"Don't touch me, it hurts..."
