He pushed the door in, in the vast darkness, he opened his mouth in the air, and it took a long time before he called softly: "Ke'er......"

The voice was desolate and sad, surrounding the empty water pavilion, and there was no echo or answer.

Whether it's a human or a ghost, he has to see her. The parting that he didn't have time to say, the determination to avenge her, the thoughts and regrets that have come these days, he wants to talk to her. He was too sad to find the slightest relief. Even if she turned into a ghost and returned, complained to him, and asked him for her life, he didn't care. As long as we can see each other again.

He let go of his clenched teeth, a whimper in his throat, and then a plea, "Ke'er, I'm here, you come out to meet me." ”

In fact, from Shao Linghang's first step into Shui Qi Pavilion, she had already seen him.

imagined that his situation would not be good, and after being entangled for so long, it was finally possible for both of them to take a step forward before they improved, but she suddenly "died". seems to confirm the rumors that he has rejected his wife, and he is burdened with a crime that cannot be cleared. He must have self-blame, guilt, and melancholy that he couldn't ask for it, and people become depressed, doesn't it mean that he doesn't think about tea and dinner, then he must have lost a lot of weight.

But he had already adapted to the darkness in the room, and when he saw him for the first time, Su Ke's heart throbbed violently.

His outfit was the same as the first time they met that day, the crown of silver silk twisted bamboo, the stone blue silk robe, and even the jade ring, incense sachet, and red gold belt hook on the crow's black belt were all the same. Even the body exudes a strong smell of alcohol.

It's not that he's half-convinced, he's very sure that he's dressed up like this to say goodbye to "her".

How it began, and how it ended. There is no result in this feeling going round and round, since heaven and man are separated forever, we must start and finish well.

But what did you call her to do so sadly? Is it so reluctant?

Su Ke covered her mouth, she didn't want to recognize him for a moment. She deserves to be treated like this. It's not good for him, when he meets again, it's either staring or arguing, there are more times when they break up unhappily, and there are fewer times when they are pleasant. Always choking with him, always finding fault with him. He's done so much, and she's still not getting in.

There is something about such feelings that he can't let go of. Didn't he say it himself, she was his weakness, and if she was pinched, she would become a dead end. What about the younger brother, for his own interests, he can also use this weakness to persecute him. He should have hated her, but he called her in such a choked voice.

――If I'm really a ghost, aren't you afraid?

Su Ke walked out from behind the door step by step. In order to make it easier to walk in the back garden, she deliberately sewed a black blouse in the small courtyard. Her long ink-splashed hair was loose and uncombed, and it was hard to see her in the night. Even if you are really seen, you can pretend to be a ghost with long hair.

She walked out of the darkness behind the door like this, and approached slowly, her footsteps neither light nor heavy.

Shao Linghang's back suddenly stiffened, listening to the sound behind him, his eyes suddenly became sour, he exhaled, didn't turn back, and asked hoarsely: "Ke'er, is it you?" ”

Su Ke snorted, and had already walked behind him, and when he was so close, he found that he had lost a lot of weight, and his robe was loose on his body.

She felt distressed for a moment, and reached out to wrap her arms around his waist, leaning her face on his broad back, and the warm smell of wine instantly rushed into her nose. It's really like the beginning, the temperature, the breath, the silhouette, everything evokes that acquaintance.

She served him red soup, lit his love fire, and then entangled it step by step to this day.

"Shao Linghang—" She called him by name and surname for the first time, her face buried in his back, her voice soft, "You turn around and look at me." ”

"Ke'er, are you complaining about me? If I had given you a name earlier, even if someone in the palace harmed you, they would have weighed your identity. Now that your bones are not cold, it's not that I don't know how to go into the ground, it's just that you wait, and when it's over, I will handle your funeral well. I have to let you be buried in the name of Mrs. Hou, I didn't let you be beautiful during my lifetime, at least let you enter the ancestral hall of the Hou Mansion after my death. ”

Su Ke sighed, and his arms gradually tightened, "Shao Linghang, are you stupid, if I die, will my body be so warm?" ”

As if he finally sensed that something was wrong, Shao Linghang looked down at the white wrist on his waist, raised his hand to cover it, although it was a little cold, but when he touched it carefully, it was not the temperature that a ghost should have.

He reacted instantly, grabbed the wrist and turned around, and the moment he saw her, he was still stunned.

"I'm just afraid that the people in the house will see it, so I dressed up like this, and I didn't comb my hair, but you look closely, ......" Su Ke raised his face as he spoke, wanting him to take a closer look. But seeing his face and the tears streaming down his cheeks, her unfinished words dissipated between her lips and teeth.

His face really matches the four words "withered" on it.

"Why do you look like this?" Su Ke looked at his thin face, his hand brushed it gently, and suddenly he couldn't hide his sadness, and his voice trembled.

Shao Linghang grabbed the hand on the side of his face and choked up: "Ke'er, is it you?" You, not dead? ”

Su Ke nodded hurriedly, this sway, tears in his eyes slid down, "I'm not dead, I'm fine, it's just that something happened and delayed." I hurried back as soon as I pulled out. She sniffed and tried to save a smile, "You're worried, it's all my ......."

Before the words fell, Shao Linghang pulled her hard and pressed her into his arms.

"Kerr, Kerr......" he called out to her over and over again, and she answered him over and over again. Everything else is superfluous, and only when you get her response does a qiē become true. In a trance, I felt that it was a dream, grabbed her shoulders and separated each other, looked at her eyebrows seriously, brushed her long hair, looked at her clear eyes, fair face, touched it, delicate and warm.

She's alive, she's alive, and there's nothing better in this world.

……

Shuiqi Pavilion is a sluice pavilion, located in the middle and back section of the entire back garden, surrounded by water.

In the summer, all the doors are open and the breeze is blowing, making it a great place to spend the summer. In autumn, no one comes here anymore, but the furniture that was placed in the middle of summer is still there. On the south side, there is a three-sided arhat bed with mahogany carved moire inlaid stone, and on the left and right sides are four high-backed Taishi chairs, and a red lacquer coffee table with 10,000 characters in the middle.

Shao Linghang was not in a hurry to know what had happened to Su Ke in the past ten days, compared to the ups and downs in the middle, he only valued the result at the moment.

Carrying her to the Luohan bed and sitting down, he didn't ask anything, just buried his face in her hair, and breathed softly, suddenly feeling that this time was stolen from God.

He was so full of warmth, but Su Ke couldn't stand it.

"Don't tie me like that." Su Ke pushed in his arms, "You pressed my hair." ”

Shao Linghang raised his head to look at her, with some complaint in his eyes, wrinkled his head slightly, carefully smoothed her hair, and then turned it all aside, and buried his face in her neck again. There is incense around the neck, a slightly beating pulse, and a delicate and warm texture. The tip of his nose leaned up and sniffed, like a small beast, and stuck out his tongue and licked it.

Su Ke's scalp suddenly tingled, and he pushed him away, holding a pair of apricot eyes dyed with water, habitually scolding him, and swallowed back the words when they came to his mouth.

She covered the place she had just licked with her hand, and said rather unnaturally, "Be honest, I have something to tell you." ”

Shao Linghang looked at her good-naturedly, his eyes were gentle, and he said a little dotingly: "Okay, you said yours." ”

Su Ke looked at him like this, raised his hand and patted him on the head, "I haven't seen you for a few days, you have this kind of smug on your body." Isn't it that when I die, I finally don't have to pretend to be on the shelf? Are you still lingering in the fireworks these days? ”

"This is really wronging me, since I got your news, I haven't even gone out to the Hou Mansion." Shao Linghang rubbed his head, he was not angry, and still reached out to reach her. The hand was placed on her waist, and Ying Ying's waist was as soft as a snake. As he spoke, he really stretched out his hand and grabbed her waist.

Ying Ying shook it, and there was nothing thin anymore.

At this time, he belatedly became worried, and the tenderness on his face dissipated, and asked her in a deep voice, "What the hell is going on?" King Jing brought your clothes and pocket watch, and there were witnesses and physical evidence, and everything was right, and I believed that you were dead. But how do you ...... Where are you these days? ”

Su Ke's eyes sank, his heart turned a thousand times, and he thought about not talking nonsense about things that were not certain, so he met his gaze and asked softly: "Shao Linghang, because of my death, what does King Jing let you do?" ”

Many things, one link after another, are not written when they are taken out alone. But a word wakes up the dreamer, like a key inserted into the keyhole, click, everything is right.

"Respect the king? It's to honor the king! He snorted, his astute mind quickly sketching out part of what things were, and he couldn't help but take a breath, "What did he do to you?" ”

Su Ke shook his head, "He didn't do much to me, he just hid me and used my 'death' to disturb you." ”

She paused, grabbed his arm and leaned forward, her voice low as a mosquito, "What is he going to do?" Migoku? ”

Shao Linghang told Su Ke how King Jing brought her relics, how he led him to the eunuch, how he brought the bones to invite him to help, and how he promised him what he wanted. As his heart calmed down, the interlocking push made him feel a chill. He talked about how he begged his uncle Tang Zhuoru and how he entrusted the matter to Jiang Haifei, the leader of the forbidden army.

It turned out that this qiē was calculated by King Jing.

"Six of the garrisons of the Beijing Division were once my subordinates, Xue Yu of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, and Jiang Haifei of the Imperial Palace Forbidden Army. When the three of us come together, the Forbidden City is no longer a palace, but a cage. There is only one celebrant and one Dongchang left, although the power is huge, but all of them are less than one-tenth of us. If you can't get it, you can become a mortal enemy, and the new emperor will ascend the throne, and the celebrant will be cleaned. ”

Su Ke couldn't see the expression on Shao Linghang's face, whether he was more resentful of being used by others, or more surprised by the whole premeditation. She tilted her head to look him in the eye and involuntarily grasped his broad palm.

"I came out of the Ten Princes' Mansion, thanks to Miss Du's nonsense, and later King Jing found the Du Mansion, and it was Du Sanye who helped me escape. He once told me that if you respect the king and the royal pole, the chance of winning is fifty percent, and if Du Fu does not intervene, then the chance of winning will become seventy percent. There are three percent left, one percent in the crown prince, one percent in the emperor, and one percent in God. Su Ke shook Shao Linghang's hand, "King Jing's premeditated plan is imperative, and there is no turning back." ”

Shao Linghang held Su Ke's palm in his palm with his backhand, and shook his head slightly, "Without me, his own chances of winning would not be fifty percent." ”

"But he won't give up on you. Today is me, tomorrow may be the Hou Mansion, and the day after tomorrow may be the concubine in the palace-" At the mention of the concubine, Su Ke's heart suddenly twitched. No one is a completely good person, and no one is a completely bad person. In the face of major rights and wrongs, Su Ke warned himself to distinguish between priorities and priorities. But Love is her lingering knot, for the concubine, she can't let go, but the concubine is Shao Linghang's sister after all.

Sister......

"What's wrong?" Shao Linghang held her face and raised it, "Why is your face suddenly not good?" I know you're worried, but you also know that it's imperative to respect the king, so we can't run away from it at all. Since I can't escape, Ke'er, then I'll meet it. Respecting the king is not a bad thing, but the sin is forcing the palace and the sin is rebelling. I'm in such a position that I can't escape a lot of things. You don't have to blame yourself for guilty, even if we never knew each other, to this day, King Jing has the ability to threaten me. So, Suke—"

He suddenly sat up straight, clenched her hand, and looked solemn, "Su Ke, I will find a way to send you away." Only if you are safe, I can do anything else with confidence. It's done, I'll take the eight sedan chairs to pick you up. If you lose, we have nothing to do with it, and you don't have to be implicated in any way. ”

Even so, he still cares about her safety. Su Ke's throat was tight, and his chest was suffocating. Did the sentence go away from the end of the world become his inner demon? In his heart, her departure was the last retreat. She was the one who fled, the one who hid and sat back and enjoyed it.

No, no, she's not like that.

At first, it was just to cool his overly hot feelings for her, and now, she is in the same boat as him. There were countless people in between, and she might not have had time to get to him, and the ship had already sunk. But at this point, life and death have become the biggest test in this relationship. Is she afraid?

Fearless.

Su Ke leaned forward, wrapped his arms, and hugged his neck tightly.

"Shao Linghang, I'll go, but I won't be too far away from you. I still have my things to do, I can't do anything about the wind and rain outside, you have to carry it yourself, but the support behind you, I will repair and consolidate it for you. King Jing can't hide it, you go to have a showdown with him, at least let his people stop staring at me. ”

Her face was pressed to his ear, and her breath was sprayed on the back of her neck. Shao Linghang's spine was tingling, and listening to what she said, the full emotion in his heart made him collapse suddenly.

He pulled her off his shoulder, held her face and kissed her on the lips, just for a moment, and then breathed breath after breath, his voice choked, "Ke'er, you don't have to do anything for me, you live well, it is the best support for me." ”

was so close that Su Ke couldn't even see his face clearly. She smiled lightly and rubbed his face, "You underestimate me too much. If I can't do something, I'm not going to let myself walk on your side. I've been that kind of person since the day we met, you know, you know. ”

You know? Do you understand?

Shao Linghang couldn't find an answer, he cupped her face, as if he wanted to find something in her spring-stained eyes. But the spring water stirred up waves, tugged at his heart, dragged his soul, and made him indulge in this spring water, unable to find any way out.

He pressed his lips on hers, at first with a gentle peck and then with a rising tide, covering him in an instant.

His arms wrapped around her slender waist, lifted hard, and rolled over to crush her underneath.

Su Ke had no way to retreat, and the whole person was pressed on the bed board. The breath is taken away, the heartbeat is taken away. She opened her mouth to say something, but her lips were taken away. Her mind was empty, and all her mind was focused on the kiss that was getting worse. Finally the air was sucked into her lungs again, and the moist lips and tongue moved to her neck again.

"Shao Linghang." She called him, and his arm was pressed by him, and it hurt slightly.

Shao Linghang seemed to suddenly think of something, and raised his head suddenly. Heavy breathing sprayed on her face like a heat wave, and her throat swallowed in bursts, looking at her patiently, waiting for her to speak.

Su Ke looked into his eyes, and his kung fu seemed to be stretched into the sky.

She smiled lightly and said softly, "You pressed my hair......"
