3. Memory
Xi Yue got up, ran to the barbecue rack, threw a half-cooked rabbit from the rack to the ground, lifted the skirt and stepped on it hard, "Tell you to eat!" Tell you to eat! Tell you to eat! ”
Yan Min's face changed, and he was suddenly furious, "You dare!" ”
Yan Min also rushed over, Xiyue had just taken the grill of the second roast rabbit at this time, and was about to throw it on the ground, but Yan Min grabbed her hand, "Bold!" How dare you rebel against this palace? Hongu is going to eat these three rabbits......"
"Don't you think about it!"
Xi Yue shook off Yan Min's hand as soon as she used her strength, Yan Min was already thin and weak, and she had no power to restrain the chicken, and she threw it off, and fell to the ground with a stumble, and after being angry, she quickly got up, shouting and pounced on Xi Yue, wanting to take her hand from roasting the rabbit.
Everyone in the audience was immediately shocked and stepped forward to dissuade them. Hua Yu stomped her feet and hurriedly ran over, although she didn't like to cherish the moon in her heart, but Yan Xu had asked her to take care of her more, but now that Yan Xu was not there, she couldn't watch her get into trouble.
Hua Yuan hugged Xiyue and pulled back, "Xiyue, are you crazy?" It's rude to the prince, stop it......"
Yuan Mu and other family members also desperately pulled the prince, pushing and shoving, the roast rabbit fell off from the hands of the moon, and everyone suddenly had a lot of oil stains sticking to them, and the wolf was unbearable.
was making a noise, so he heard a reprimand, "Cherish the moon, stop!" ”
It's not loud, but it's very intimidating. Although he reprimanded the moon, everyone, including the prince, stopped together.
The moon is cold, the person who walks slowly from far and near is even colder, the handsome face is cold under the dissolving moonlight, and the clear eyes seem to be staring at everyone in the field, but he didn't look at anyone, only glanced at it lightly, but this glance is like winter snow and frost, which makes people feel cold for no reason.
As soon as he saw Yan Xu, Xiyue's eyes were full of tears of grievance, "Jinyun, the prince is ......"
She wanted to say that the prince deliberately killed the rabbit he gave her and roasted it for everyone to eat, but Yan Xu interrupted her in a deep voice, "Shut up." How dare you rush against the prince and not make amends to the prince? ”
Xiyue was stunned, although she didn't understand the world, she also knew that the prince was something she couldn't afford to provoke, especially Yan Xu had repeatedly warned her that his status in Yicheng was embarrassing, and he must not conflict with the prince. She was just momentarily angry, and she was indeed too reckless. But it was obvious that the prince was wrong, but now she was asking her to take the initiative to make amends, she snorted a few times, but she couldn't speak.
The courtyard was silent for a while, and everyone only felt cold sweat, and they didn't know how to end.
After all, the prince was a little taboo about this cousin, and after straightening his slightly messy clothes, he said: "That's it, I'm not the one who makes trouble unreasonably, since she is Jinyun's person, how can I care about her?" Forget it. ”
Obviously, he deliberately provoked first, and now he has to make a magnanimous gesture, if he can, Xiyue really wants to tear off his cheap mouth. But at this time, she could only hold back the anger in her heart and stand beside Yan Xu with her head down.
Yan Xu waved at the prince, his attitude was respectful, and his tone did not have the slightest wave, "The prince is magnanimous, it is Jinyun's poor discipline, and the moon is incomplete, and the prince is not worried about her." If the prince likes to eat rabbit meat, I will have a few more to send to the prince tomorrow. ”
Yan Min said goodbye, cleared his throat and said, "No need, it's such a fuss, now my head hurts when I hear the word rabbit." I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll go back first. He waved his hand and walked away.
As soon as the prince left, everyone was immediately relieved, but they had no interest in continuing to have fun, and they bowed and left.
When everyone dispersed, only Yan Xu and Xiyue were left in the courtyard. Xiyue wrung her sleeves, and tears of grievance swirled in her eyes, especially his incomplete sentence was even more sad.
She whispered, "It was the prince who provoked the incident first......"
Yan Xu stood with her hands in her hands, looked at her coldly, and saw that she was flustered, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to make a sound.
After a while, Yan Xu sighed lightly before saying, "Look at your appearance, what kind of system have you become, and you won't go back?" ”
Xiyue looked at herself, her skirt was full of oil stains, and she still exuded the aftertaste of barbecue, she suddenly felt embarrassed, Yan Xu has always liked to be clean, her appearance is simply unbearable. She didn't care about the grievances, so she hurriedly answered and turned around and ran.
The waiting maid put the hot water and withdrew, the water vapor in the bath room was steaming, and the large and round bathtub was sprinkled with plum petals, emitting a faint plum fragrance.
The warm water surrounded the body, and the chill and exhaustion were gone, and Xiyue pillowed her head on the edge of the wooden basin, and gently pulled her hands to splash the water on her body. After a while, she raised her left hand and looked at the abrupt scar on her wrist in a daze, Yan Min's words sounded in her head again, and she didn't even remember who she was......
She really doesn't remember everything about three years ago.
The earliest memory in her mind is when she woke up one day, she looked blankly at the strange palace, the strange wing, the strange bed, and there were several strange palace maids standing next to the bed...... Then there was a sound of footsteps, and the palace maids fell to their knees, and her heart was suddenly frightened, and she hurriedly lowered the curtain, grabbed the bedding on the bed, and shrank in the corner trembling.
A burst of light came in, the curtain was lifted, and a tall man stood by the bed, looked at her and said softly, "Xiyue, you are awake." ”
His voice is so good. She looked up at him, he was standing by the bed, his tall figure obscuring the sunlight, she couldn't see him clearly, only a pair of deep and bottomless eyes, the sparkle in the eyes, just ...... Her mind went blank.
She asked him in a trembling voice, "Who are you?" ”
He smiled lightly, "You forgot? I'm Jinyun. ”
She shook her head blankly, "That'...... Who am I? ”
"You? You're cherishing the moon. ”
"Cherish the moon, Jinyun ......" she murmured in a low voice, with trepidation, clenching the futon tightly with both hands, "I'm Xiyue?" But why can't I remember it at all? ”
He looked at her, his deep eyes seemed to look into her heart, and slowly stretched out his hand to her, his voice with seductive magic, "Xiyue, don't be afraid, you're just sick." Come, I'll take you to a fresh start. ”
As a result, she became his favorite dancing girl, and he became her all. There was nothing happier for her than to dance for him, and she was immersed in his obsessive gaze as he watched her dance, though she sometimes wondered if such a gentle and intoxicating gaze was really because of her.
No one wants to be ignorant of their past, and neither is the Cherished Moon. She has tried Yan Xu countless times, but Yan Xu obviously doesn't like her to find out the roots of her past. Whenever she changes her tricks and temptation, Yan Xu will always sink her face, there is no anger on his face when he is angry, but the frost on his face makes her timid, although he usually obeys her in everything, but if she makes him dissatisfied, he will not go to see her for a long time, she can't bear to live without him.
So she compromised and didn't dare to ask anything about herself. It's just that in the dead of night, things about her life experience will still puzzle her, just like tonight, Yan Min's sentence "stupid melon" stabbed her heart fiercely. Thinking of tonight's incident, she couldn't help frowning slightly, her reckless behavior must have made Jinyun unhappy, and she didn't know how he would punish her this time.
The crisp sound of clogs stepping on the jade bricks came from outside the door, and Xiyue was overjoyed and quickly closed her eyes. The door of the bath room opened gently, bringing in a cool breeze, and then it was gently closed.
Yan Xu had changed into a loose moon-white robe, stepped on clogs on her feet, and slowly walked into the bath. The mist in the room was thick, and he stood by the bathtub, looking down at the person who had deliberately closed her eyes, her head tilted back on the edge of the tub, and there was a deliberately hidden sly smile on her smooth and wet face, and her long eyelashes stained with moisture were trembling slightly.
He smiled silently, pulled the pestle to the side and sat down, rolled up his sleeves, scooped up a scoop of hot water with a water ladle, let the hot water run down the back of her head, and inserted his other hand into her green silk, and gently rubbed it with the hot water. The water slid down his arm, wetting his sleeves and the robes at his feet.
Her long eyelashes fluttered even more, but she tried to hold back, trying not to open her eyes. He finally couldn't stand it anymore, and said lightly: "Pretending to sleep is also a time to choose, no one can fall asleep like this." ”
Xiyue laughed out loud, stretched out her jade arm from the water, held his hand on her face with her backhand, and asked timidly, "Jinyun, ...... Are you still mad at me? ”
He hummed noncommittally, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked up at him like that, "But...... He knew that you gave me those rabbits, but he deliberately killed me, and that's it, he mocked me......"
Yan Xu's jaw raised slightly, dragging out the tone, "Oh...... So, what did he mock you? ”
She was excited and aggrieved, "He, he laughed at me for being a fool who doesn't even remember who he is." ”
He nodded nonchalantly, "So...... You are so angry that you don't even remember who you are, and you risk your life to commit the next crime? What are you if you're not a dumb melon? ”
He was still angry, and she bit her lip and didn't dare to say more.
He withdrew his hand, scooped another scoop of water, and rubbed her hair carefully, "It's not the first time he's been angry with you, and he's laughed at you a few times, but do you know why he always likes to keep you in trouble?" ”
She blinked, a little innocent, "How do I know, I have tried to avoid him, but this person is always yin and yang, there is no way to do things, he has to provoke me, what can I do?" ”
He glanced at her and said leisurely: "Because when you provoke, you are angry, and you are in his arms." ”
