In the middle of the night, it started to rain lightly again. The north wind shook the branches and knocked on the windows.

Yan Conling had always had a light sleep. He wanted to open his eyes when listening to the noise and wind and rain, but his eyelids were as heavy as a thousand stones and he couldn't lift them up. His forehead was wet, and his breathing was rapid as if he had fallen into the water.

She dreamed of that day again.

It's just that this time it's no longer a bloody, broken relative.

But herself.

She dreamed that she was pressed into the rubble of the ruins, with blackened limbs and broken bones beneath her body, and blood mixed with the juice of Yan Ling Cao.

The scorching sun is like a frying pan, cooking the world and she. The rotten flesh and vegetation are disgusting and stimulate the five senses. The taste is engraved into the bone marrow and will never be forgotten in this life.

She no longer remembers how she survived... There seemed to be broad arms hugging her tightly, and a voice came from above her head, telling her not to be afraid.

The familiar warmth and softness are just like before.

Like a drowning person clinging to driftwood, she instinctively clung to the only source of warmth.

She vaguely remembers that she felt cold and stiff several times during this period, but the thing would soon come over to warm her up again...

The sound of rain gradually stopped, and Yan Conngling finally opened his eyes. What was magnified in front of her was the young man's beautiful face. His body temperature was still very high, and a bunch of soft tails were wrapped around her body. Some of them were even held in her arms.

Yan Conngling struggled for a while before getting out of his arms.

Almost at the same moment, the sound of Qingxin Bell rang in my ears. Lou Qixue reached out and picked her back up, wrapping her tail tighter.

"Lou Qixue."

She didn't move this time, only focusing on the red rope around his wrist.

As soon as she shouted, the other person woke up.

It was not yet bright, and the room was dark. The monster's unique eyes flashed with a faint flash of purple light, hiding the erect pupils.

"Having a nightmare again?"

Questioning words, affirmative tone.

"Yes." Yan Conling responded in a low voice, twirled his Qingxin Bell with his fingertips, and asked, "Are you... always restless lately?"

But in just half a day, she had already heard his bell ringing several times.

And...it's all related to myself.

One step, one sound, one step, one thought.

When she first entered the mountain gate, her senior brothers and sisters also took this with them to calm their impetuosity. But except for the third senior brother Ning Mingche, who is young and energetic and a little unstable, Lou Qixue is definitely the person she has seen ringing the bell most often...

She never understood the feeling of putting all your emotions on one person.

As if he wasn't used to her asking about her concern, Lou Qixue paused for a moment, then tightened his arms a little, "It's okay, as long as you are here, I will be fine."

He was indeed uneasy.

The trajectory of things had already deviated from the previous life, and he knew too little. Apart from taking the seed in advance, there was very little that could help her.

From the very beginning when he was reborn, he was full of grievances and questions, but now he is only worried and afraid. He was afraid that if he interfered too much, something would happen to her...

"Are you going back to the Imperial Capital tomorrow?"

He asked cautiously, and Yan Conling shook her head, "I'll stay here for a few more days this time."

The fox demon's eyes brightened even more.

"That's just right. There is a shop in Lingcheng. I heard it specializes in spring snacks. I'll take you there."

Yan Conling was a little funny, "Just wandering around?"

The other party was very polite and said, "I can reserve the venue for you."

The window paper shone through the misty light, and Yan Conling hesitated before speaking, "You're not angry with me anymore?" His fingertips circled the girl's satin-like soft black hair, and Lou Qixue didn't even raise his eyelids, "You've already apologized to me. ”

In the last life, she killed his soul completely, and he was able to calm down. Even if her mind regressed and returned to a child this time, at the critical moment, even the inner demon that had been clamoring to kill her asked him to protect her.

Deep down in his heart, he couldn't get angry like Yan Congling.

The bottom line is even lower than I thought.

"and……"

The dawn suddenly appeared, and the shadows shone through the screen window into the front of the tent. Lou Qixue lowered her head, stretched out her arms and hugged her tightly, "As long as you are well."

The body of the girl in his arms seemed to stiffen slightly.

"Is there anything interesting happening in Imperial Capital recently?"

He asked suddenly, and Yan Conling couldn't react for a while.

After all, he'd never asked her this before...

"I am locked up here to recuperate, and my condition is not stable yet. I am afraid that I will suddenly change back to my original form and scare people, so I don't dare to go out and walk around twice." Knowing her suspicions, Lou Qixue explained.

"It's been so long and there's no one to talk to."

The last sentence is quite aggrieved.

Thinking of the past when he went out to buy groceries, I often saw him standing at the bridge for most of the day. Yan Congling felt relieved and said.

"There is no interesting thing, but the mess can make a big plate." Thinking about it makes people have a headache.

Lou Qixue nodded, "Then you tell me."

Naturally, he couldn't be here to listen to all kinds of gossip. I just want to know more about it, and I want to know where things are going, and I can help her more.

If these things were done in the past, Yan Conling would just pretend to be stupid and refuse. But with that sword and life in front of her, at least in the few days when Lou Qixue's injury had not healed, she was still willing to be more tolerant.

"I'll pick out a few and tell you."

Telling these gossips to Lou Qixue would not be as detailed as reporting to Ning Fengli. Yan Conling only used the tone he usually used when talking about work to Chief Li, and briefly and clearly explained the recent developments in Imperial Capital.

When it was mentioned that the new princess was pregnant, Lou Qixue frowned suddenly.

"Pregnant?"

"Yes."

Yan Conling didn't see his expression.

I just remembered that when I was in Hongxiu Tower, I had doubted whether the prince had any hidden disease... but in a blink of an eye, the prince had it in his belly.

Lou Qixue frowned even more tightly, "Such a coincidence?"

Unexpectedly, one Zhou Ningyu escaped this time, and another Zhou Ningzhu rushed up.

Moreover, she became pregnant so soon.

Thinking of the unknown piece of flesh and blood that was given birth to by the daughter of the Zhou family in his previous life, his expression became solemn, "The prince was so mad that he lost his mind like that. Maybe there is something unclean in the East Palace. The princess can still be good." Will you give birth to the child?"

Yan Conling was silent.

I feel that he is somewhat lucky. A few casual words can really fool you.

She didn't tell him Queen Wu's true identity, which was a big deal. She was afraid that if the subsequent plans were ruined, the gain would be greater than the gain by alerting the snake.

However, what he said was indeed thoughtful. Yan Conling thought carefully and nodded, "You are right. When we return to the Imperial Capital, I will send some peace charms to the Crown Princess."

Lou Qixue said no more.

Without the crown princess giving birth to a monster, Ning Junzhan's position as crown prince would have been secure for a few more years, and the imperial capital would not have fallen into the panic of rumors...
