Chapter 49: Heartbreak

When the first spring flower bloomed, Ling Caiwei had no intention of appreciating the flowers, and sat bored by the window reading medical books. The early spring sun shone on her body, it was a kind of lazy warmth, and her heart was tired.

It has been more than ten days since she returned to the Prince's Mansion, and she has not seen Nan Ronglie for seven days. Lu Mo went to Siliang to inquire about the news, and the accused prince has been diligent every day since the emperor summoned him, learning to take care of the government, and he is so busy all day that he has no time to see the princess for the time being.

Ling Caiwei pondered over and over again what Nan Ronglie told her the night before returning to the Prince's Mansion.

He seemed to have drunk some wine that night, and insisted on taking her to the roof to see the stars. Sitting on the roof, he kept holding her cold little hand in the palm of his hand despite her objections, babbling like an old woman and saying a lot of nonsense.

She felt that he had been talking over and over all night, but he only wanted to tell her two things. One of them is to try to change your appearance every day after returning home, and no one before or after you can reveal your identity. The next day, he also fiercely told Siliang, Lime, and Green Mo to keep their mouths shut about the identity of the crown princess, and if anyone leaks out, they will not read the love of the master and servant. She felt the need to advise on this matter, because it was not good for anyone to reveal their identities, especially since the three of them were likely to lead to death, so she agreed with his warning.

But the second thing she felt was a little inexplicable. Nam Rongyeol took her hand and asked her to always believe in him. Whatever he does, believe that he is for her good. She was so worn by him that she had no choice but to nod.

People's feelings are very strange, sometimes even they don't know what the reason is, so a person who resists is slowly getting used to his existence. Ling Caiwei just wanted to simply maintain a cooperative relationship with him, she helped him seize the throne, and he helped her find clues to clear the name of her family. If Princess Yishu comes back one day to ask for someone, she will return a healthy person to her today to repay the princess's kindness.

So, from the very beginning, she drew a line in her mind and built a wall. She's here, he's over there, they know each other, but they don't fall in love. In short, it's good to be safe.

However, since the two of them had spent nearly two months in the valley, the line in her heart had been blurred by the spring water of that day, and the wall had crumbled and collapsed little by little as he waved his injured arm to chop wood for her cooking. Even the last bit of wariness she had had about him was removed when he gave her the healing medicine.

The rest is warmth, like the spring wind silently warming the earth, awakening all things, and thawing her long-frozen innocence.

She listened to his arrangement to stay in the Palace of Eternal Life, did not interfere in the internal affairs of the house, did not accept the concubine's morning invitation, and waited for him to send clues related to the Ling family's unjust case with peace of mind.

She was able to see him every day for those days. Although she was in a hurry and her face was tired, when she saw him, she felt that the day had not been in vain, and even if there was no clue, there was no anxiety and panic in her heart.

It wasn't until he told her that Gan Zhong's domestic servant had been killed, and he cut off contact like this important clue. I didn't see her again for seven days.

Perhaps, as Siliang said, Nan Ronglie has important things to do, and he can't come to see her separately. Or maybe he has leveled the supporters of King Xian, gained a firm foothold in the court, and no longer needs her as a bargaining chip for the throne as a fake princess.

Every time she thinks of this, her heart will panic, and she has no intention of doing things or reading books. He said to make her believe him. But what right did she have to believe him? Now she was, as her name suggested, a wild vegetable with small purple flowers, small and humble, and left to fend for herself.

She closed the book, not wanting to get herself into a whirlpool of cranky thoughts. She is not a self-pitying person, and a momentary bad mood cannot last forever.

Ling Caiwei asked Lime to go out for a walk with her, but found that she was whispering in the courtyard with Lu Mo and didn't know what she was talking about, and she didn't even hear her three times.

She went out to warn Lime, but she heard Lime suddenly raise her voice, and the words she regretted hearing pierced her ears like poisonous needles and pierced her heart. She felt that this pain was a drop in the bucket compared to the lives of the three hundred people of the Ling family, and it couldn't hurt her.

She slowly retreated into the house, and the ferret, which had been lying on the windowsill basking in the sun, suddenly woke up and raised her little head to stare at Ling Caiwei. Humming uneasily.

She walked over and stroked its head. The ferret's round, dark eyes blinked in response to her touch. She caught a glimpse of sad eyes in its pitch-black pupils. Under the cover of thick eyelashes, large tears rolled out of those eyes, and their faces fell to the ground before they were wet. And the owner of those eyes turned out to be smiling, like rain falling on a sunny day, and no one understood those sorrows.

When Lime came to deliver dinner, she found that Ling Caiwei had already slept. She called a few times but did not answer, then quietly turned off the lights and withdrew. It's okay to sleep, there are some things that will only be happy if you are kept in the dark forever. Lies can sometimes make people happy, as long as she can live forever in lies and not know the truth.

Lime left for a long time before Ling Caiwei sat up and hugged herself tightly on her knees.

She thought it was a dragonfly that couldn't hurt her, but why was the first circle of ripples slowly spreading, overlapping, and growing, circle by circle, layer by layer, slowly turning into waves, wrapped in the power of destroying everything, slapping her, crashing her, frantically swallowing her to the bottom of the sea, and in an almost suffocating moment, she saw a face with sparse eyebrows, smiling wickedly at her. She tried to walk over and get closer to him, but found that he was holding a woman in his arms. Unkempt and disheveled, she seemed to sense that someone was watching her, and turned abruptly in his arms.

She shouted with her eyes closed. No way. No. No.

Lu Mo woke her up: "Princess, you have a nightmare. "It's her in the outhouse tonight.

Ling Caiwei opened her eyes, looked at the ferret who was still sleeping on her chest, and sighed softly, "It's just a nightmare." ”

Lu Mo hugged the ferret to the side of the bed and said, "I said my princess, don't let it sleep on your chest in the future, if you press your heart, you will have nightmares." ”

"Princess?" Ling Caiwei muttered, "Am I a princess? It's just the daughter of a criminal who has been framed. ”

She wanted to say something, but Lu Mo decisively blocked her mouth with her hand.

"My aunt, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has instructed us not to mention this matter before or after. Beware of partition walls with ears. If someone with a heart listens to it, you and I will die. She gestured to wipe her neck, her expression horrified.

Ling Caiwei remembered what the prince said on the roof that night, and sneered in her heart, not knowing whether to laugh at him for being smart or for being stupid. She pushed Lu Mo's hand away and asked her dementedly, "What else did the prince tell you, and what else did he want to hide from me from you and Lime?"

Lu Mo was asked by her, and for a while she didn't know whether to tell her the truth.
