Bai Furong's body swayed and she almost fell to the ground. The teacup on the table made a noise when she bumped into it, causing Bai Ze outside the door to exclaim "Eh!" Then the knocking on the door became more urgent. "Bai Furong! Open the door!"
Bai Furong steadied herself and took a deep breath. After finally gathering her strength, she raised her voice and said, "Stop knocking. I won't open the door for you even if you knock!" Her voice seemed to have returned to the way it was before, but she didn't know how hard she had to work to shout out, pinching her throat and holding her pulse. "Don't bother me. I want to sleep. Go away!"
Although what he said was impolite, to Bai Ze, this was how Bai Furong should be, so he did not doubt it too much. He muttered something like "good intentions don't go unrewarded" and left.
Bai Furong finally breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down into the chair. She felt a fishy and sweet feeling rising from her heart. She tried her best to suppress it, but a trace of blood still appeared at the corner of her lips.
"I'm afraid I can't hold on for six days if I keep going like this." She sighed, forced herself to walk back to the bed, and went back to sleep.
However, she didn't sleep for long. At midnight, the eagles in the sky started to cry again. Bai Furong opened her eyes reflexively, and the anger in her eyes was so strong. But no matter how angry she was, she had to crawl out of the bed, put on her clothes silently, and put on her hat. Then she quietly walked to the back window, where there were no soldiers guarding it, so she could sneak out.
But she was not as agile as before. Even if she jumped out of the window, she was as clumsy as a 60- or 70-year-old. She tried back and forth three times before finally jumping out of the window. As a result, she lost her balance and fell on the ice and snow. She couldn't stand up for a long time.
Bai Ze followed Xuan Tianming's order to personally monitor Bai Furong every night and pay attention to her whereabouts. As early as when the hawk flew over the sky, he realized that Bai Furong would definitely go out again tonight, so he went around to the back window early to wait for her.
Bai Ze was extremely surprised by Bai Furong's fall. At first, he laughed wildly in his heart, laughing at her for being clumsy and unable to jump out of such a low window properly. Then he began to worry whether Bai Furong had hurt her foot on the snow. After all, she had sprained her foot before and it had never healed well. But after a while, he began to get anxious, because Bai Furong was crawling on the ground like a dead person and did not move for a long time.
Just when he was so anxious that he couldn't help but go forward to check out the situation, Bai Furong finally made some movement, but she made a very old voice and said, "I fell to death." There was nothing wrong with the words, but Bai Ze felt that the voice was not normal. For a moment, he really doubted whether the person in the snow in front of him was Bai Furong.
Finally, that person stood up again. Bai Ze watched her limping forward, stopping from time to time to straighten her back. The feeling that the other person was not Bai Furong became even stronger.
He suppressed his curiosity and followed secretly, going around in circles. Finally, after walking for several hours, the person in front stopped at the corner of an alley.
There was still a man in black waiting there. Bai Ze had already recognized that he was the man in black who had been in contact with Bai Furong all the way. At this time, seeing Bai Furong coming, the other party immediately said: "The master has a new mission, and wants you to kill the Ji An County Master within five days."
"What?" Bai Furong laughed and coughed as if she had heard a very funny joke. After finally calming down, she said, "Are you crazy? Ah Heng is so powerful, how can I kill him just by saying so? It's totally unrealistic!"
The other party added: "After all, you and her are old acquaintances. She is less wary of you, so naturally your chances are greater. Don't worry, after the matter is completed, the master can agree to all your requests."
Bai Furong shook her head, "If I really make a move, whether I succeed or not, I will be killed immediately. Do you think I can escape successfully after killing Princess Ji'an? Don't dream, I won't kill Ah Heng, I have said it before, my father is from Dashun, I am from Dashun, I, Bai Furong, will never betray my country or my friends in my life. I still have a few days to live, I don't care, as for my father, I still say the same thing, if he dies because of this, it is his fate. You can't blame others for your own experience." She said, turning around tiredly, "Go away, don't come to me again, I won't come out again the next time Eagle Cry. Tell your master that I will never recognize her uncle in my life."
Seeing Bai Furong turning around and walking back, although Bai Ze was puzzled by her voice, he immediately retreated, always keeping a certain distance from her, and retreated to the north gate of the prefectural government.
But Bai Furong walked slower and slower. Bai Ze had a very strange feeling. He felt that the person wearing the bamboo hat was not Bai Furong at all, but an old man. Every step he took required a lot of effort, and he had to stop from time to time to straighten his back and twist his legs.
This strange feeling lasted until a gust of wind blew, and Bai Furong was unable to hold down the hat, so it flew directly off her head. Bai Ze, who was originally retreating step by step, suddenly froze, staring straight at the person who was facing him not far away, his mouth opened in surprise.
Unfortunately, Bai Furong did not see Bai Ze clearly. Her eyesight was very weak and her visual distance was no more than three steps. Bai Ze's position was too far away for her.
She squatted down and wanted to pick up the hat, but the wind was too strong. She tried to pick it up several times and it was almost touched, but it was blown away again.
Bai Furong shook her head helplessly, stood up again, and stopped picking up the bamboo hat. Instead, she tried to walk faster, wanting to get back to the mansion as soon as possible. She just kept walking forward, not noticing that right opposite her, Bai Ze was standing there straight, staring at her, with surprise and sadness on his face.
Finally, Bai Furong stopped walking, but the distance of two steps finally made her realize that there was someone in front of her, and finally made her recognize Bai Ze through the wind and snow. For a moment, she almost thought she was dreaming. In the dream, the young man who had pulled her up from the snow in the mountains came back to her. She sprained her ankle, and he carried her all the way back to the camp. She hugged his neck tightly, and although she was afraid, her heart was still warm.
However...it’s not possible now.
Bai Furong covered her face with her hands in panic, trying to hide herself. She didn't want Bai Ze to see her face. Even if she died, she didn't want him to see her like this.
Unfortunately, Bai Ze saw it clearly the moment the hat was blown away by the wind. He called out tentatively with a trembling voice, "Bai Furong?"
She was startled and shook her head, "No."
"Who are you?"
Who is she then? She doesn't know either.
The two of them stood in the snow for who knows how long. Finally, Bai Furong's body could no longer withstand the heavy snowstorm, and the fishy sweetness that she had suppressed before surged up again. She no longer had the strength to suppress it, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth, spraying directly onto Bai Ze's heart.
Bai Ze felt as if his heart was hit hard by an invisible object, and he almost cried because of the pain. The person in front of him, who looked old but still recognizable as Bai Furong, rolled his eyes and fell straight in front of him.
The fear in Bai Ze's heart reached a peak. He held Bai Furong in his arms. The feeling was just like when Xuan Tianming had his legs destroyed by arrows in the mountains in the northwest. It was not just fear, but despair.
"Bai Furong, don't die." He sniffed, picked her up, and rushed to the door of the mansion, kicked it open with one leg. The soldiers who were patrolling the mansion heard the noise and gathered around, thinking that there was an enemy attack. When they looked carefully, they found that the person who broke in was Bai Ze. Bai Ze ran all the way to the backyard, shouting, "Princess! Princess, help me!"
In this military camp, people called Feng Yuheng many different names. The soldiers all called her Princess, Wangchuan Huangquan called her Miss, Ghost Doctor Song Kang called her Master, and Xuan Tianming called her Wife. But the only one who called her Princess was Bai Ze.
Feng Yuheng hadn't slept to begin with. Xuan Tianming was pestering her to tell him about her experiences over the past few months. She had just started talking about meeting Qingle on the boat, and Qingle leaving her a white handkerchief embroidered with hibiscus flowers, when suddenly, she heard the shouts of "Princess".
Xuan Tianming was extremely unhappy. "Bai Ze is becoming more and more lawless. How come he doesn't know what it means to avoid suspicion at a time like this?"
Feng Yuheng rolled his eyes at him, "What's there to be ashamed of? Although this is not in the army, it is also an enemy city that we just captured. We should accept military reports from the soldiers at any time."
Xuan Tianming resigned himself to his fate and got off the bed. While muttering, "My wife taught me a lesson," he put on his shoes and socks and said, "From the sound, it seems like something urgent is going on."
As he was speaking, there was a loud "bang" and the door was pushed open from the outside. Along with the whistling cold wind, Bai Ze, who was holding an old lady in his arms, came in.
Feng Yuheng was startled and asked in confusion: "Who is this?" After asking, she felt something was wrong. She had known Bai Ze for a long time, and this kid had never lost his composure like this before, but today... Feng Yuheng's heart trembled suddenly, and when she looked at the old woman again, an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged into her heart.
She hurriedly took two more steps forward, and at the same time, Bai Ze knelt down in front of her with a plop, and said urgently: "Save her, princess, save her, please save her!"
Before Feng Yuheng could say anything, Xuan Tianming had already recognized this person. Even though he already knew Bai Furong's identity, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this scene. "Bai Furong? How did she become like this?"
As soon as the three words "Bai Furong" came out, the last glimmer of "hope" in Feng Yuheng's heart was also wiped out. She felt an indescribable pain in her heart. It had nothing to do with Bai Furong's identity, and it had nothing to do with whether she betrayed herself. Just for the friendship they had in the past, seeing Bai Furong like this today was also a kind of mental torture and destruction for her.
"Princess, please save her!" Bai Ze put the person on the ground and began to kowtow to Feng Yuheng, saying as he kowtowed, "The identity of Miss Bai is indeed problematic, but I have followed her for several months and have seen with my own eyes that she would rather become like this than betray you once, let alone do anything to harm the interests of Dashun. Not only that, if she hadn't pointed the wrong path to the Qianzhou people at the beginning, your trip to the Northern Territory would have been full of dangers!"
Feng Yuheng nodded, his face serious, patted Bai Ze's shoulder with his left hand to signal him to calm down, and his right hand had already taken Bai Furong's wrist pulse. After checking, he couldn't help but be shocked again, "How could this happen?"
