If he really was the Yi Chen who loved her more than himself, he should clearly know what kind of life she wanted.
Lin Yichen looked at Bai Su, unable to recover from her shock for a long time.
Yes, he should know best what kind of life she wanted.
If she cared about her status and identity, she wouldn't have done everything she could to escape the Prince Jin Palace.
All she wanted was the freedom to fly and to travel with her.
From the moment she knew his identity, he had already lost the right to accompany her.
"What if I'm not the Emperor?" Lin Yichen knew full well that this was not a possibility, but he still couldn't help but want to ask.
Hearing this question, Bai Su was slightly taken aback.
If he wasn't the Emperor, would she still be by his side?
The Bai Su who once threw caution to the wind for the sake of Yi Chen seemed to have disappeared, the current wounds all over her body made her feel as if she had lost the courage to intensely love someone.
Bai Su didn't know whether or not everyone would lose the courage to continue loving someone like her after experiencing an intense romance with injuries all over their body.
Anyway, she knew she wouldn't be able to do it.
Now, she yearned for that kind of love that was as calm as water, yet as sweet as honey.
Or perhaps, what she needed more was someone who could play with her, make trouble with her, laugh with her, and cry with her.
And this person, for the rest of his life, would never be the new emperor who ruled over the world like Ling Tian Empire.
Bai Su lifted her head, calmly looking at Lin Yichen: "There are no ifs in this world."
Pausing for a moment, she asked: "Lin Yichen, what do you want, for you to let me go?"
"We …" Lin Yichen didn't know what to say.
Suddenly, the eunuch's low voice came from the door, "Emperor... the Beimu Kingdom Prince Xian was really saved by him. "
Lin Yichen frowned slightly.
Moreover, he was still worried about Bai Su, so he subconsciously wanted to refuse to see her.
But when he saw the slight change in Bai Su's expression because of the two words "Prince Xian," he suddenly changed his mind.
"Announce Prince Xian as an audience at the inner palace."
There was an inner hall outside the emperor's chambers. The outer hall is usually used to summon ministers and handle government affairs, while the inner hall is used for rest.
Since Lin Yichen was heavily injured, he could not get off the bed to walk around. Thus, he could only receive the Prince Xian in the inner hall.
When Bai Su saw Lin Yichen in the palace, she had already guessed that he was here for her. She just did not know the reason why she was looking for Lin Yichen.
Right now, not to mention that his martial arts hadn't recovered, even if he had, he still wouldn't be able to walk around freely in this palace.
Although he was the Prince Xian Lord, his Ling Tian Empire was countless times more powerful than that of his own. A mere little Prince Xian like him might not even be able to compete with an emperor in Ling Tian Empire.
Seeing the worry on Bai Su's face, Lin Yichen slightly narrowed his eyes.
"Xiaobai, take a seat." "I'll have breakfast with you later."
Bai Su thought that Lin Yichen would let the others take her down first, but she told her to stay.
She really wanted to stay and listen to what the two men were saying, so she didn't care what Lin Yichen had just said.
Mu Yuntian strode into the Inner Palace.
"Beimu Kingdom, Mu Yuntian, will participate in the competition, Your Majesty."
Because there was a pearl curtain in between, Bai Su could not see Mu Yuntian's face clearly, only a light purple figure could be seen.
She thought that Mu Yuntian would definitely be able to see her as well.
Lin Yichen leaned on the headboard and spoke to Mu Yuntian: "Prince Xian, no need for formalities. May I know what matter Prince Xian has to attend this early in the morning? "
The Inner Palace was quiet, Mu Yuntian did not speak immediately.
Lin Yichen was startled, and waved outside: "All of you can leave."
"Yes." All the palace maids and eunuchs retreated, and the doors of the inner palace were closed.
Mu Yuntian walked forward a few steps and stood beside the bead curtain. He said to Lin Yichen: "I wonder when Emperor is going to let this king's aides out of the palace?"
"…"
To dare to address himself as "This King" in front of Lin Yichen, the only person who did not lose in demeanor was most likely Mu Yuntian.
Lin Yichen raised his eyebrows, "We have long heard that the Prince Xian had brought an extremely close aide this time around. I wonder what Prince Xian's words mean? Why is your aide in my palace? "
Even though he said that, he looked towards Bai Su.
Su Bai, Bai Su. He should have known it was her.
Bai Su's gaze moved from Mu Yuntian, who was outside the bead curtain, to Lin Yichen.
He didn't think so before, but at this moment, he felt that the man in front of him was not only a little scheming, but also extremely scheming.
Was this person really the Yi Chen that she knew?
Mu Yuntian was not defeated by Lin Yichen's words. Instead, he smiled lightly: "I have an aide, Su Bai, in Emperor's chamber. I sensed her scent as soon as I arrived, so how could Emperor not be there? Hehe! However, the Emperor has every day to worry about, and it is reasonable for his not to recognize this king's staff. Don't you think so, Mr. Su? "
The last sentence was clearly shouting at Bai Su. Bai Su praised Mu Yuntian for being tactful.
He quickly said, "Prince's nose is even sharper than that divine dog's. You could already smell my scent from so far away. Prince was relieved, he had only heard that this humble one had mastered the art of altering cultivation, so he had transmitted the information to this subordinate to help him treat his illness. Emperor, do you think so? "
"…" The corner of Lin Yichen's mouth twitched.
The two not only exposed his lies, but they also found a reasonable way for him to go down, so they cooperated very well.
He was a grand overlord, yet he was actually rendered speechless by these two people. He was actually unable to vent his anger on them.
"Haha, what Mr. Su said is extremely true. I have indeed heard that Mister Su has great medical skills, which is why I had you enter the palace. I didn't know that Prince Xian would be so worried, but it's my fault. "
"How could this king dare to blame Emperor? I wonder when Emperor plans to return Mr. Su to this king? This enthronement ceremony is already over. This King is almost ready to return home. "
Mu Yuntian's disrespectful and overbearing actions had finally made him frown.
"How dare you!" Prince Xian is so disrespectful to me, aren't you afraid that I'll take you down? "
Mu Yuntian seemed to not be afraid in the slightest, and said fearlessly: "Respects are only for those who deserve it. It was a great disrespect for the Emperor to meet with the previous Emperor in secret before the bones had turned cold. This king doesn't feel that there should be any respect for you. "
"You!" Hearing that, Lin Yichen was so angry that he started coughing out loud, "Cough! "Cough, cough ~ ~ ~"
He raised his head, looked at Bai Su, and a trace of a sorry state of panic flashed in his eyes.
Mu Yuntian's words were not only threatening Lin Yichen. If he did not release Bai Su, the matter of him hooking up with the Sea Consort would be made public. He even revealed that Bai Su was the person who had secretly spied on him and Sea Consort that night.
This caused Lin Yichen to feel a wave of fear and worry that he had never felt before.
