Chapter 182: The years to come are long
The Heavenly Emperor rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Did that Qing'e tell you?" She must have taken things out of context and couldn't speak clearly, no wonder you were troubled. ”
Mei'er smiled sadly, shook her head and said, "No, it has nothing to do with her." ”
"Do you complain that I have snubbed you all these years? It's my fault. That year, I met the girl on the ruins of Jinling...... It's the girl of the Jinling family, who has had delusions in her heart since then, and has been obsessed with her for many years......"
Mei'er asked in a low voice, "Emperor, did she tell you that her name is Yu Yue?" ”
The Heavenly Emperor was stunned for a moment, and said softly in a hoarse tone: "No, my destined wife will be given by the ancient phoenix crown, and I can't exceed this rule......"
He stopped, looking at the crystal curtain in front of him, tonight he wants to confess to his wife that he has hidden his heart for many years, this bubble-like love has been broken in the sun, and now his heart is as clear as a mirror, but he knows that his wife's heart has secretly built a high wall because of his own alienation over the years, blocking him.
He is the initiator, and this wall should be torn down by his hands.
"The ancient regulations stipulate that the emperor's marriage is given by the phoenix crown, I must abide by this agreement, but on the day of marriage, I was unwilling in my heart, at that time my heart was very confused, so I used the excuse of the dragon warning to go out of the palace, at that time I thought it would only be delayed for a few days, and when the depression in my heart dissipated, I returned to the palace, I didn't expect that in the ruins of Jinling, I met the widow of the Jinling Emperor, she is a person in the netherworld, and I was trapped for more than two years with exotic witchcraft."
He said very slowly, he had used a negative attitude to escape his destined wife, but during this time, he had an epiphany that this track that had been laid early in the morning was indeed the destination of the emotions in this life, and the dream that had stirred his heart was illusory, and the woman sitting in front of him was real.
"Now I'm willing to come back to you, if what I did a few days ago made you sad, it was my fault, but in the future, we can still have a good future, right?"
With a soft "pop", the jade cup in Mei'er's hand slammed to the ground, and the sake meandered on the sleek tabletop, and finally merged into a thin stream of water and dripped onto the ground.
There was a buzzing sound in her ears, all these years, he actually snubbed her in reality for the sake of "her" in his dreams, is there such a ridiculous thing?
Is it the wind that blinds you and me, or is it the karmic cycle of fate?
Some people say that the heart is clear, but it falls on you and me, why can't it be understood?
"Emperor, if it weren't for the restraint of this phoenix crown, you and I wouldn't be married, would we?"
Mei'er took out the brocade handkerchief, covered it with the unfinished wine on the table, and gently wiped the traces away, no, even if there is no ancient phoenix crown to pull the string from it, you and I will still get married, but this fate needs to be sacrificed with blood.
"There are no ifs. We should face reality, huh? ”
She raised her head suddenly, and the swaying bead curtain slid across her slightly cool cheeks: "You're right, we should face reality, Emperor, you haven't answered the question I just asked, if one day, that sword-wielding man stands in front of your eyes, what will happen to you?" ”
The Emperor of Heaven bowed down, staring at his wife shrouded in scorching light with inquiring eyes, and his tone was as calm as a breeze: "I said, there is no if. That person will never appear in Skyland! ”
"She was brought into the Netherworld by the Hades Emperor, don't you feel any regret in your heart?"
The Heavenly Emperor's eyes flashed: "The matter of the Emperor of the Underworld and her, was that Qing'e told you?" ”
Mei'er's heart is like being blocked by a big stone, and it hurts, the Emperor of Hades! The coolness still swirled around her wrists, and she slowly tucked her hand into her sleeve and turned her head to look at the landscape satin painting hanging on the wall.
The Heavenly Emperor waited for a while, but did not see her answer, so he said: "Even if she is not brought into the Netherworld by the Hades Emperor, there will be no more entanglement between me and her, because I already have you." But I don't want to fight against her, I hope that the two of us can settle our old suspicions and live together peacefully. The vendetta should not be recycled, and what we need in this space is not constant killing and bloodshed, but permanent peace and tranquility. ”
Mei'er's voice was ethereal: "I heard that the sword in her hand is the only demon sword in this space that can kill the emperor, right?" ”
The Emperor of Heaven laughed loudly and said: "Ancient legends say that this is indeed the case, I also admire the sword very much in my heart, but unfortunately I will never have the opportunity to see its beauty, the Emperor of the Underworld has permanently sealed the passage connecting the two worlds, and the brilliance of the sword can only remain in the Netherworld, so that the Emperor of the Underworld can enjoy it exclusively." ”
He took her hand and smiled softly, "Are you worried that I will be hurt by that sword?" ”
Mei'er lowered her eyes and looked at the emperor's hand, this was the first time she really appreciated the emperor's hand for so many years, slender and powerful, with distinct knuckles, and a warmth was flowing from his palm into her palm with a cool feeling, she smiled astringently: "Whether the sword is really as sharp as the legend, we don't know the way, in fact, the emperor hopes that the heavenly realm can enjoy peace forever, and that girl also feels the same way, I think, as long as the emperor can treat the withered land of the Jinling family well, and the Qing'e girl, I believe, even if she really holds this sword, It will never hurt the emperor. ”
She closed her eyes and remembered the jade statue of Ling Bo stepping on the lotus pond in the illusory space of the family that day, and the words that seemed to be like a curse: "Only by killing him and sacrificing this land with his blood will this land be reborn, and since you are the daughter of the Jinling family, you have the responsibility to carry this burden." ”
That day, the Emperor of the Underworld held her hand in the fog and said to her in a deep voice, "Maybe you and Qing'e both hope to recover that land with verdant as soon as possible, but I can tell you that not anytime soon. Although I have only set foot on that land three times, I can also feel the resentment in it, which is endless, deep-rooted, even if she is really reborn and prosperous in just a few years, as you wish, but this resentment will continue endlessly, and the grudge between you and the Heavenly Palace will continue, and the killing and bloodshed will never stop. ”
"Killing and bloodshed never stop?"
Mei'er opened her eyes, the flowing light flickered in front of her, and she was a little confused.
In the hazy night light, the Heavenly Emperor looked at him calmly and smiled: "No, the killing and bloodshed must stop, and I will not let this grudge flow." ”
"What can you do to end this old feud? If resentment is buried deep in the dirt and entangles in your heart, you can't turn that land into nothingness, right? ”
"That's the territory of the Heavenly Domain, I will only do everything I can to make her recover as soon as possible and be reborn in the heavens and the earth, but this process will take a little longer, that Qing'e girl, I will let her go back one day, as for how this family will continue, it depends on her personal choice." You don't have to bother with it anymore. ”
