Chapter 275
"He's not here for a few days." Bai Ling pulled the hair around his ear, "It seems that the emperor has an errand that only he can do."

Bai Yi silently looked at the dancing flames under the stove, "...then are you safe now?"

Bai Ling shook her head, and she sat on the small wooden stool next to Bai Yi, "It's hard to say, I feel that the emperor doesn't have time to take care of this side of things now, so I will drag it first."

She roughly told Bai Yi what had happened in the past few days, and Bai Yi was terrified when he heard it, and he tightly grasped the wooden branch used to hold the fire in his hand, "...you still dare to use hypnosis? Are you not afraid of that Immortal Zhang?" Just say that you know how to demonize, and I will give you on the spot—”

"Then I must be a bit sure before I dare to gamble." Bai Ling looked at Bai Yi, "I remember telling me before the [-]th that Zhang Shenxian used the name of praying for the longevity of Emperor Jianxi to search for people's fat and anointing. Song Bozong and his son have always supported Emperor Jianxi's Xuanxiu so much, there is no reason to have a bad relationship with this Immortal Zhang. At the beginning of the month, the Song family made such a fuss about our marriage proposal in the capital. I think this Immortal Zhang should be I've heard of it."

Bai Yi frowned, "...So you just bet that Immortal Zhang will help you?"

"En." Bo Ling nodded, "Although I'm not [-]% sure, I can still give it a try. On the one hand, I have taken care of the Song family, and on the other hand, my weight in the palace is not too light. At this time, I think he will not refuse to be a favor. Of course, if he plays it off later, this Immortal Zhang can bite back, and then we will see each other again."

Bai Yi sighed softly, "You're not nervous."

"It's useless to be nervous." Bai Ling smiled, "I was in the Criminal Justice Department last night, and suddenly felt that there was a paradox in this matter, which was quite interesting."

"Hmm." Bai Yi said softly, "Tell me?"

"If you want to get out of this situation, you can't make yourself irreplaceable. Everyone is innocent and guilty. But if you want to protect yourself, you have to have the ability to make others willing to protect you , this kind of ability, of course, the more irreplaceable the better."

Bo Ling also looked at the flames under the stove, "So what does this explain?"

Bai Yi looked sideways at Bo Ling, the sparkle of fire danced in her eyes, and he suddenly understood what Bo Ling wanted to say.

Bai Ling continued talking to himself, "Earlier, Niang Concubine Ning told me that there would be no retreat after entering the palace. I didn't fully understand what she meant, but I just thought she was saying that she had to go all out to survive. , but the more you try your best, the deeper you will fall into this situation. The imperial palace is such a big quagmire."

"I know it's not the right time to think about this now, but it's not too late." Bo Ling rested his chin in both hands, "I have an idea."

"Ok?"

"Let's find an opportunity to escape." Bo Ling said seriously.

There was a sudden silence between the two, only the sound of the flame licking the firewood under the stove could be heard.

Bai Yi couldn't keep up with Bai Ling's train of thought.

"Are you serious?" Bai Yi asked.

Bo Ling nodded with a serious expression, "After much deliberation, I still think that this sounding least reliable method is the most reliable. There are many mountains and forests near Pingjing, so we will find a chance to walk along the mountain road and see where it is livable on the road. Set up a home there. There is no tracking black technology at the moment, as long as we design properly in the early stage and arrange everything that needs to be arranged, we will definitely be able to escape—”

"Calm down." Bai Yi touched Bai Ling's forehead lightly, "I just said you were not nervous, so you were frightened."

"...I'm really serious." Bai Ling gently pushed Bai Yi's hand away, "Apart from this road, there is no other way to get out of here completely. Li Suo, you can start planning for this matter earlier... If it's too late, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"You underestimate the ability of the officers and soldiers here to arrest people." Bai Yi replied equally seriously, "And more importantly, Fourteen has been by your side. What can you do to hide it from him? When the time comes As soon as you disappear, the emperor will arrest Wei Shishi for interrogation, and he will know everything."

Bai Ling was taken aback.

Yes, how could I forget about this.

It may be that he was so used to Fourteen obeying orders by his side that he forgot his status as a courtier of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Bo Ling squinted his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said softly in an uncertain tone, "...Well, then take Fourteen along."

"Have you asked him, is he willing?" Bai Yi said softly.

"..."

Bo Ling lowered his eyes, and suddenly remembered the conversation he had with Fourteen earlier—the effort that Fourteen has put in from nothing to the present is unimaginable for ordinary people.

This matter is very unfair to Shisi - she can't just ask Wei Shishi to give up everything that has been hard-won for the sake of her own freedom.

Bai Yi stood up, looked at the water in the pot, and said in a low voice, "Anyway, don't think about things that far away, after all, it's not that bad yet."

The steam in the kitchen was steaming, and Bo Ling tilted his head worriedly.

...It's always going to be that bad.

As long as you continue to stay here, the car will overturn one day.

"By the way, speaking of it..." Bai Yi suddenly seemed to remember something, with a smile on his face, "...that son, what do you think?"

Bai Ling didn't understand the meaning of Bai Yi's words, "How about what?"

Bai Yi said softly, "Although I have never met this son, if I have to choose one among so many people, I think he... seems quite suitable."

"...What?" Bo Ling finally regained his composure.

The water in the pot boiled, Bai Yi rolled up his sleeves, and started scooping hot water into the empty bucket beside him with a ladle.

As he started, he said, "I'm not talking about how noble he is, but you see, among the dignitaries of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Prince Gong and Princess Gong were able to avoid taking concubines and stick to each other. You can count it on your hands, right? That prince grew up in this kind of family, and his attitude towards feelings should be quite correct. Plus he went to the palace last night to save you... Isn't it cute?"

Thinking of Prince Gong and Concubine Gong whom he saw last night, Bai Ling smiled, "It's really rare...but it still doesn't work."

"So determined?" Bai Yi was a little surprised, "You don't have to make a decision now, just wait and see?"

Bai Ling said firmly, "It's really not possible, he is too young. To attack such an innocent little boy... won't your conscience hurt?"

Bai Yi couldn't help but glanced at Bai Ling, who had grown to his shoulder, and sighed.

"Fine. Anyway, my opinion is not important on this matter. It's up to you to like it." As he spoke, he lifted up another wooden bucket containing well water and poured the cold water steadily. Pour it into the pot, "But let me remind you, all good men marry young. We used to be like this, and it's even more so here. If you don't grasp the opportunity, if you slip away, you slip away."

Bo Ling slightly rolled his eyes, "Thank you."
