Xiahou Chun came back to the palace five days later.

The snow had almost melted, and Bai Lixin, dressed in a loose robe, met Xiahou Chun in his study.

"You are here at last, General Xiahou. I have been living alone in my bedroom for the past few days. I have been afraid that someone might try to harm me again, and I have been on tenterhooks all day. Now that you have come, don't leave! "

A few cracks appeared on Xiahou Chun's cold, hard face as he said, "Your Highness, since that man had used your horse to hurt you, he would not dare assassinate you in a grand manner. Please rest assured. "

Bai Lixin looked up at the face that had appeared in his dreams so many times, recalling the image that had been played over and over again. A sudden, nameless fire rushed to his heart.

This was the man who had subverted the kingdom, disrupted the court, killed the father and the mother, and brought harm to the royal brother!

This man deserves to die!

He picked up the teapot at his side and threw it at Xiahou Chun, saying angrily, "Don't worry about it! I'm not a cat with nine lives. If that man succeeds once, I'll die! There is no room for regret! I tell you, Chun Xiahou, if I die, you won't live either! "

Xiahou Chun had taken off his armour and was dressed in a pure black robe. When he felt the teapot coming at him, he didn't even dodge it, letting it hit him on the shoulder and roll onto the carpet. Without changing his face, he said, "I have spoken out of turn. I will protect his highness to the fullest. "

Bai Lixin took two deep breaths and rubbed his forehead before saying anxiously, "Is General Xiahou hurt? For some reason, I have been irritable and violent these past few days. I can not control my emotions at all. I am still young, only seventeen years old, and when I think that my life has just begun and is about to end, I get really frightened. Please forgive me, General Xiahou, and do not take it to heart. "

"This minister was just frightened. How could he blame Your Highness?" Xiahou Chun said, half-kneeling on the ground and clenching his hands into fists.

Bai Lixin stood up and walked over to Xiahou Chun's face and helped him up, saying with remorse and pity, "General Xiahou has suffered! Please rise quickly." He tilted his head and glanced at Xiahou Jun's indifferent expression. He reached out to pat his shoulder where the teapot had just fallen, saying, "It's all my fault. General Xiahou's clothes are all wet. Si'er! Quickly lead General Xiahou to change into clothes that fit! "

Xiahou Chun glanced at Bai Lixin with his eagle-like eyes, his expression slightly relaxed, "No need, Your Highness. I'll just use my inner strength to dry them. "

"That's not possible. After all, tea is not like water; it will get stained. I have taken a lot of clothes from the inner sanctum in the past few days while waiting for General Xiahou to come. If nothing goes wrong, General Xiahou will not be required to leave the palace."

Xiahou Chun lowered his head and looked at Bai Lixin. He nodded and said, "I will do as his Highness says."

Only then did Bai Lixin sweep his apologies away and wink at Si'er, who rushed forward and said respectfully, "General Xiahou, please come with me."

Just as Xiahou Chun turned to follow Si'er, Bai Lixin stopped him and said helplessly, "By the way, General Xiahou. Since my forehead injury, I have become increasingly unable to control my emotions and actions. If I ever do anything like this again, it will be because I can not control myself. General Xiahou must be more tolerant in the future."

Xiahou Chun's tall figure gave a slight pause, and he said without looking back, "I will remember!"

As he watched Xiahou Chun leave, Bai Lixin's smiling expression changed to one of indifference.
