CHAPTER 72
"It's not a question of love or not, if I promise you, how will Lei Zhan deal with himself in the future? I don't want to be honored, does my son have to pay for it?" Xiyan said softly, "If you love me, don't embarrass me." ”
"Son?" Yan Tianmu heard her mention Lei Zhan for the first time, "He has nothing to do with you anymore." Now, he is the fourth son of the princess. You should go and hear what he calls the princess and how intimate he is with her. ”
"But he was born to me, and there is nothing that can be changed. Xi Yan pushed him, thinking of Lei Zhan, she was upset. Yan Tianmu's somewhat malicious description added to the pain, "You get up first, I can't breathe." ”
Yan Tianmu didn't react immediately, but Xiyan's unhappy expression had already calmed him down. What he wants is her willingness. He rolled over neatly and stood on the ground. Xiyan also sat up. She tried to control her emotions, but the bad mood weighed down like a dark cloud and made her explode.
"I'm not going to force you. Yan Tianmu saw that her face was very bad, and expressed her thoughts, "But, this child, I must." You think about it, I can wait. ”
Xiyan hung her head without saying a word, not knowing what she was thinking. The result of thinking too much is that the brain is tired to the point of blankness.
"Xiyan. Chao Yan had already approached and found that his sister's fugue was too empty. During these days, the weather was still very cold, and seeing that her face was a little blue, she must have been sitting outside for a long time.
"Sister?" Xi Yan heard the voice, looked up, and was surprised to see Chao Yan actually standing in front of her, "Why are you here?" She stood up from the stone bench and happily grabbed her sister's hand.
"I'm coming to see you. Chao Yan smiled softly. In fact, she didn't expect that the princess would agree to let her come over to visit. For a while, she has been in the palace a lot of times, and she has been with the princess to talk.
"It's so fun. Xiyan hugged Chaoyan excitedly, she was so lonely that she was about to mold.
"Why are you still like a child? Chao Yan looked happy when she looked at her, and she was also happy. "Go back inside, it's cold outside. ”
Listening to her, Xi Yan found that her body was a little cold and stiff.
Entering the inner hall together, Yuexiang brought hot tea at the right time. The side concubine Niangniang has been in a trance recently, always likes to sit in the cold wind, motionless, I don't know if it's because the matter of the four princes is too sad.
"How are you doing?" Chao Yan drank tea, his body warmed up, and asked his sister who was holding a cup to keep warm.
"It's fine. Xiyan replied with a smile.
"Really?" Chaoyan didn't believe it. If it's really okay, why is she sitting outside in a daze on that cold day. The four princes look more and more like Xiyan, very handsome and cute. Seeing him snuggling up to the princess affectionately and calling her princess, she was sad for her sister. Why did the king give the little prince to someone else to raise?
"Really. Xiyan replied smoothly. It's not the worst yet, and that's all right.
Chao Yan looked at her sister's face in the hot air, a little unspeakably strange. When did she stop complaining about her suffering? like a human-shaped brocade box that enveloped everything, and contained secrets that only she knew. She slowly lowered the cup and rubbed her hands. She has been preparing for this side for a long time, thinking repeatedly, what to say, how to say, she must see Xiyan, because she really can't help it. When she saw him lose his soul, saw him wandering all night under the moonlit night, saw him lose his temper for her, she couldn't continue to pretend.
"Xiyan," Chaoyan called.
"Huh?" Xiyan looked at her with an inquiring look.
"I," Chao Yan was a little unnatural, facing her sister, she really had a hard time saying it, or she didn't know how to say it at all. "I," she plucked up her courage and finally just smiled, "nothing. ”
Her desire to speak stopped making Xiyan puzzled, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"
"Lord Gong," Chao Yan kept a smile on his head, and the words that followed were muttered.
"What's wrong with the prince?" asked Xi Yan patiently. Is there something wrong? It shouldn't be. "Sister, just say it. ”
"Does the prince know about us?" Chao Yan finally asked, as if he had made up his mind.
"What's the matter?" Before Xi Yan could react, Chao Yan didn't explain, just looked at her fixedly. After a long time, Xiyan suddenly realized. "That's it. Shouldn't know. If you and I didn't even say it. ”
"How could I say," Chao Yan frowned, "Are you sure you haven't shown a single breath?" The doubt and uncertainty in her words made Xi Yan feel like a thorn in her throat, and her sister had never spoken to her in such a tone. The smile on her face faded, and she looked at Chao Yan sadly.
"Are you suspicious of me?"
"It's not that I suspect you, it's that the prince's performance is too abnormal. Chao Yan avoided her gaze, afraid that he would be soft-hearted and would give up asking. "I always felt like he knew something. ”
"I haven't said anything, and I haven't missed a single bit. Xiyan had mixed feelings in her heart. She looked to the ground.
"Then when you are at the border," Chao Yan stared at the side of her sister's face, "is there a ......?" she couldn't say.
"That's why you're here to see me. Xiyan smiled bitterly, pretending to be amorous, but she didn't expect that their sisters could use such words one day.
Chao Yan didn't speak. She didn't want to deny it.
"Nothing. Xiyan suppressed the heartache and looked straight into her sister's eyes, "You can rest assured." ”
"I'm sorry," the sorrow in Xiyan's eyes made Chaoyan a little unbearable, she would treat her only sister like this, like a vicious jealous woman. "I'm sorry, Xiyan, I don't know what's wrong with me. She said hurriedly.
"I don't know what's wrong with me. Xi Yan stared at her, Lei Yao was so important to her, so important that she would change because of him, "Maybe it was wrong from the beginning." ”
"Yes, it was wrong in the first place. Chao Yan also looked back at her, "What a stupid idea." ”
"Don't say it," Xiyan began to get irritable, it's been so long, what's the point of going back now?" ”
Chao Yan bit his lower lip, stood up, and tied his cloak haphazardly, "Then I'll go back and come to see you later." ”
"Don't come again," Xi Yan said lightly behind her back, "My current situation may affect you and Prince Gong's Mansion, so don't come to see me again." ”
Chao Yan seemed to be frozen, her tears suddenly welled up, aggrieved, sad, sad, she couldn't speak. She held back her tears and left without looking back.
Xiyan supported her head with her hands and watched her leave with a blank expression. Sighing, slowly poured the water in the cup on her head, the warm water became cold to her scalp, and the tea stayed on her head with the water, wake up, she heard a voice say.
