Chapter 341: The Hall of Eternal Life on July 7
At this time, the crowd riot caused by the rush has gradually subsided. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Xu Chenglin and Liang Sixian also struggled to push through the crowd and walked over here, Cui Yingjia didn't stay long, asked a few more times, and saw that she still refused to tell her name, and remembered the sisters who came out together, so they simply said goodbye.
"Thank you, White Girl, although I still don't know your name and appearance, if you see you again in the future, don't pretend not to know you. ā
Bai Chenghuan also said goodbye to her politely, and did not tell her her name just because she said so.
After all, it was the first acquaintance, and she had a good impression of the Cui family, but she would never learn to treat people casually like she did in her previous life.
When she walked away, Xiao Shaotang, who had not said a word from beginning to end, said: "The people of the Cui family also came to the capital, and the people of the Xue family also came, King Ning and the eldest princess of Huijun were ready to move, this capital is really too lively." ā
Bai Chenghuan bowed.
He Qi suddenly became Xiao Shaotang, the son of King Qin, since King Qin was relieved to let him come to the capital, he must have told him about the changes in the capital over the years.
"It's good to be lively, otherwise, will everyone watch that person ruin the world?"
Xiao Shaotang frowned, listening to the meaning of this......
Could it be that the Weibei Hou Mansion also has any ideas?
But Bai Chenghuan is just the righteous daughter of Weibei Houfu, if the people of Weibei Houfu really have any plans, how can they tell her everything?
Just thinking about it for a moment, Xiao Shaotang put away this doubt.
"Whether it's the Cui family or the Xue family, whatever plans they really have, sooner or later they will be revealed. ā
In today's situation, it is unlikely that these families will directly seize the world of Daqi, but it is very likely that they want to support a puppet to replace Xiao Shaoyun.
He felt that he must have a good discussion with Mr. Yuan when he went back.
Bai Chenghuan also agreed: "Yes, especially the Cui family girl just now, if the Cui family really has any ideas, there is a chance that they will show their interest to the Hou Mansion." ā
Although since a hundred years ago, the two families have not been married under the noses of the emperors of the past dynasties since the marriage of the Cui family and the Weibei Houfu, but if you really talk about it carefully, whether it is the branch or the side branch, the Weibei Houfu is the back of the ancestor of the Cui family.
Xiao Shaotang thought of the woman in blue who fell, but shook his head: "Bai Chenghuan, what will happen in the future, no one can say, but no matter when, Bai Chenghuan, you have to remember, don't be involved in the whirlpool of the capital by others, I hope you can always be safe and happy." ā
"That Cui Yingjia just now, you are right not to reveal your identity to her, when you meet in Pingshui, people's hearts are unpredictable, you can be so cautious, I am very relieved. ā
Xiao Shaotang was very strange tonight, this was Bai Chenghuan's first intuition.
It's strange to do things, and it's even stranger to say things.
But Bai Chenghuan remembered Fang Cai's concealment from Cui Yingjia, but suddenly seemed to have quietly let go of something in his heart.
"I thought you'd think I wasn't honest enough with her. ā
Xiao Shaotang looked at the girl beside him in the crowd, his eyes were calm and sincere, and the rippling warmth was like the river flowing under their feet, and the veins came out: "How come, for me, you are my friend, and she is just a passerby." ā
After speaking, he smiled a little playfully:
"Fang Cai, I was rude in a hurry, I hope you forgive me, if you can't get over it in your heart, then hit me a few more times to get angry?"
It's good that he didn't mention this matter, but when he mentioned it at this time, Bai Chenghuan, who originally wanted to let this matter pass like this, suddenly had all kinds of feelings in his heart.
Except for Xiao Shaoyun, it was the first time she was so close to a man, and in this surging crowd, she couldn't care about other people's side glances, couldn't care about etiquette and rules, and only had powerless compromises.
This is different from the time He Qi suddenly rushed up and held her hand in Yuzhou, that time it was unintentional, but this time it was intentional.
But this time, she obviously has the opportunity to resist and the strength to resist, but there is no room for resistance.
Bai Chenghuan could clearly see the bright smile between his eyebrows and eyes through the light veil, it was obviously proud, as if to say, you have the ability to beat me!
But now, she really can't do anything to him.
Bai Chenghuan was very calm: "If I beat you, wouldn't it seem that I was too ungrateful and unreasonable?" Besides, I have nothing to be angry about, as you said, I am in a hurry, should I thank you for not letting go and saying that I was thrown into the river?"
Xiao Shaotang raised his eyebrows, there was a kind of Hao Ran whose thoughts were exposed.
Now this is not good, he is full of affection, and she is indifferent.
According to Song Sanlang, if a woman has a little meaning to a man and is hugged by this man, she may have to promise herself, even if she doesn't promise herself, she will secretly promise it.
But Bai Chenghuan's tone, his voice, is really not the slightest strange.
That's it, it's a long time coming, I can't be in a hurry, I can't be in a hurry!
"Then I'm going to thank you for not bothering with me, I'm very happy to be able to come out with you tonight. ā
"I'm also very happy to be able to go out for a walk and see the grand scenery of the Chinese Valentine's Day in the capital. ā
When Xiao Shaotang heard this, his heart stretched a little more.
When the two were talking, Xu Chenglin and Liang Sixian had already arrived in front of them.
"Cheng Huan, you guys?"
Liang Sixian was laughed at by Bai Chenghuan before, and now he also winked at Bai Chenghuan with revenge, and the deep meaning is self-evident.
Bai Chenghuan couldn't help but laugh, raised his sleeve and pointed to the sparkling moat, and said to Liang Sixian: "I almost fell down just now, but it was the prince of Qin who saved me." ā
"Really?" Liang Sixian didn't believe it.
"It's true, I don't believe you asked my brother. ā
Liang Sixian looked at Xu Chenglin, his face was very bad.
Well, Cheng Huan was hugged and hugged by a man in public, and Brother Xu must be unhappy about this.
Righteous sister, that's also a sister.
After a few more words, they agreed to go back.
As soon as they entered the city gate, they saw a small servant wearing the blue-gray clothes of the male servant of the Marquis of Beiweihou Mansion hurrying over, and when he saw them from afar, he ran over.
"Lord Shizi, Fourth Miss, you two come back quickly, the emperor is here!"
The little guy was still clever, he didn't shout loudly in front of people, he walked up to Xu Chenglin, saluted, and then whispered.
Xu Chenglin's heart was a pang, emperor, why did he suddenly go to the Hou Mansion?
Although Bai Chenghuan didn't hear clearly, he also knew that something must have happened at home.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, please escort Sixian back first, I want to take Cheng Huan back to the house as soon as possible!"
Xu Chenglin immediately made a decision and immediately asked Xiao Shaotang.
At this time, the parents asked the little girl to look for it, and it must be a tricky matter.
Shaotang will definitely send Miss Liang back safely, and please rest assured that Xu Shizi. ā
Xiao Shaotang saw Xu Chenglin's solemn face, and immediately responded. Although he was a little worried in his heart, he knew that if something big really happened in the Hou Mansion, with his current status, it would not be a good thing to appear like this.
Liang Sixian also knew about Bai Chenghuan pretending to be sick, and seeing Xu Chenglin like this, he didn't say much, and the four of them quickly split into two ways and went separately.
Bai Chenghuan sat in an inconspicuous green silk carriage, and a strong uneasiness filled her heart.
Xiao Shaoyun, how could he come to the Hou Mansion again?
Obviously, after she returned to Beijing, the time he bumped into her in the Hou Mansion, the appearance of his decision to leave was not fake.
With his proud temperament, how could he suddenly think of going to the Hou Mansion?
While she was thinking, Xu Chenglin's voice came from outside the car window: "Cheng Huan, let's go back in a while, go to the corner door at the back, I'm afraid, he's here to find you." ā
"Good. ā
Xiao Shaoyun has been to the Hou Mansion many times because of her in the past, as the king of a country, every time he comes to the Hou Mansion, he has always walked through the main gate, and the subordinates guarding the gate also know the emperor, he must have entered the Hou Mansion from the gate this time.
At this time, go back and enter through the corner door, and you can ensure that you will not collide with him.
It's just that he, so decent, how could he think of looking for her? Could it be that she showed a flaw somewhere?
The brother and sister were uneasy, galloping all the way, straight to the corner gate behind the Hou Mansion, and when they were about to reach the corner of the lively back alley during the day, Bai Chenghuan heard a long neighing of horses outside the carriage, which was close to his ears.
Bai Chenghuan was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly lifted the curtain to look, only to see Xu Chenglin turn around and shout: "Go back first, don't come over!"
After saying that, he galloped into the narrow back alley.
The driver immediately drove the car into the alleyway to the side and stopped in the darkness.
Bai Chenghuan didn't know what was going on, thought about it, and got out of the carriage.
"Fourth Miss, the prince asked you not to go over!"
The driver who drove the car was also an old man in the Hou Mansion, and he was a first-class henchman, and he understood the meaning of the master very properly.
Bai Chenghuan turned a deaf ear, hung down all the light yarn of the hat, moved the skirt lightly, and walked quickly towards the alley.
If there is really any danger in the corner gate, how can my brother do it alone?
But she only walked around the corner of the back alley and stopped.
In the silent back alley, the noise and excitement of the day have long since dissipated, only two lanterns are hung high in the back corner door of the Hou Mansion, swaying gently in the breeze.
Under the dim lamp, there was a straight figure standing, wearing the emperor's regular clothes with wide robes and large sleeves, wearing on his body, with endless elegance, looking up at the two small lanterns.
Behind him, Xu Chenglin was still bowing and saluting, and he never got up.
"The emperor came to the Hou Mansion late at night, and the ministers missed the welcome, and hoped that the emperor would forgive the sin, and asked the emperor to move and enter the Hou Mansion to serve tea. ā
Xu Chenglin's voice was heard clearly by Bai Chenghuan.
Xiao Shaoyun's sigh, she could naturally hear it clearly.
"Enter the Hou Mansion...... I just want to see her, and you don't allow it. Wei Beihou said that your righteous sister was very sick, and I knew that I just wanted to see her, but they stopped me, and even killed me in front of me. ā
Xiao Shaoyun turned around and looked at Xu Chenglin, who was respectful but infinitely distant, and seemed to be smiling: "A few days ago, your father didn't die on the spot, and it was not easy to save his life, if he was allowed to hit the ground in front of me again, he really bumped into a bad thing, how would Cheng Huan blame me?"
Xu Chenglin was silent.
Father must have been forced to be helpless, so he would be like this! Xiao Shaoyun, why is he so deceitful!
Fortunately, the night well concealed the hatred in Xu Chenglin's eyes, but Xiao Shaoyun took a step back, and suddenly sat down on the bluestone in front of the corner gate.
"In the past, Cheng Huan told me about the alley behind the Hou Mansion, saying that it was lively during the day, with all kinds of snacks, beautiful and fun, and she also told me about her sneaking out, but now, I came, but she was not there. ā
Xiao Shaoyun's figure was completely lonely under the light, and Bai Chenghuan stood quietly at the mouth of the alley, but he was stunned on the spot!
When did she tell him about this back alley?!
Although she had also thought about telling him that there was a fun place behind the Hou Mansion in the future, she hadn't had time to tell him yet!
Xiao Shaoyun, how did he know?
Even what he said was exactly what she had wanted to tell him!
Xu Chenglin's whole body tensed, and he only listened to Xiao Shaoyun's self-talk as if he was babbling, and refused to say a word.
He killed Cheng Huan with his own hands, how could he still have the face to mention Cheng Huan?!
Xiao Shaoyun thought about the years that Cheng Huan had spent in the deep palace in his previous life, and his heart ached like a knife.
On the seventh day of the seventh month, when no one whispered in the middle of the night.
In heaven I wish to be a winged bird, and on the earth I wish to be a branch.
In those Zhaoyang Palaces, the days when the two of them were close to each other were the best times in his past and present lives.
"I didn't protect him, so you hate me, Wei Beihou and Mrs. Wei Bei Hou hate me, I know it, but whether you believe it or not, in life and life, the only person I have ever loved is Cheng Huan. ā
The corners of Xu Chenglin's lips tightened, and his face gradually turned blue.
What is he? Who is he pretending to be?
"Your Majesty, Cheng Huan is no longer here, you, mourn. ā
He replied coldly.
What's the point of everything that you have destroyed with your own hands, no matter how nostalgic you are?
"No, she'll come back, you don't believe it, but she'll definitely come back. ā
The handsome emperor, sitting alone under the lamp, said stubbornly in the dark night.
The sound is ethereal, but it comes far away.
Bai Chenghuan blinked his eyes and reached out and pressed it to his heart.
Her heart was already empty, and she still felt pain......
Xiao Shaoyun, have you ever loved me? What were you thinking when you killed me with your own hands?
But that's not important anymore.
Life after life, no, life after life.
In the only life she had, she had only loved one person named Xiao Shaoyun, who was not only the emperor, but also her childhood sweetheart, and what she thought she was going to be.
By the time she died, it was all gone.
Bai Chenghuan turned around, walked out of this dark back alley, got into the carriage, and drove towards the main gate of Weibei Houfu.
Through the rickety screen, she took one last look at the emperor, who used to be high up in the past, but now sat at the door of the courtier's house, and turned her head.
She didn't feel any pity for him.
Bai Chenghuan entered the gate of the Hou Mansion openly, and went all the way back to Huanyi Pavilion, where he met the anxious Weibei Hou couple and the King of Jin.
