Chapter 18 Hesitating to make a conclusion, wandering forward, being chased and killed
The old days are scattered with yellowed memories with a faint fragrance. In front of the wooden lattice window of the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info, you can vaguely hear the sound of falling flowers. But when it's spring, it's the sound of gardenias blooming. Sitting alone in front of the window, Xianyun always thinks of the gardenia in front of the windowsill.
I remember that when I first entered the Zhengyang Palace, the gardenia was blooming. Facing the rising sun, it seems that life is about to bloom. Xianyun will always be careful, and that is when he returns to the palace later. She still recalls the days when she was separated from Gardenia.
Thinking of Wanning, thinking of gardenias. The folds in the memory will be smoothed again. The purpose of Xianyun's visit this time is to rescue Qi Su so that he can join Wan Ning as soon as possible. After all, Wanning treats her like a sister, how could she give up Wanning alone.
Just thinking about Duanmu Kang's words, Xianyun hesitated a little again. One is afraid that Duanmu Kang will deceive her, and it is just a conspiracy. Second, she really can't figure out the mind of the ruler. If it will appear again, like Lin Yifan's scene, Xianyun really doesn't know what to do.
"Why do you wake up so early? The sun hasn't come out yet," Duanmu Rong walked over with a bowl of morning tea and a smile. In the past few days, in order to ensure the safety of Xianyun, Duanmu Rong cleaned up a room for her. Listening to the maid, Xianyun got up very early.
A bowl of morning tea is Duanmu Rong's thoughts. It was also many years later that Xianyun looked at Duanmu Rong with teary eyes, and didn't know how to comfort him for a while. After the restoration of the eastern foothills, Xirong was driven to the northwest desert. The once prosperous Xijon is also gradually declining.
In fact, Duanmu Rong didn't hate Xianyun, she just hated her father. Why is it restless in the grassland to defend itself, and to seize the city of the Central Plains. In the end, it's just a dream. The only pity is that she can't see Xianyun again.
"This is something I expected a long time ago," Duanmu Rong rubbed her red and swollen eyes, and smiled reluctantly, "It's just a retribution for my father Khan......" turned to leave, but it was a lonely figure. During the few months of occupation in Kyoto, Duanmu Rong has been taking care of herself.
Putting aside the so-called rights for the time being, Duanmu Rong is definitely a trustworthy friend. It's just a dream, and it's always hard to distinguish between right and wrong. For example, the price of rescuing Qi Su, Xianyun was entangled for a long time, but he still said it intermittently.
In Xianyun's heart, rescuing Qi Su is the most important thing at this moment. What's more, Duanmu Rong is the only one who can help. And he also has a better understanding of Duanmu Kang's personality. Speaking of marrying, Duanmu Rong immediately shook her head like a rattle.
"It's one thing to save Qisu, it's another thing to marry him," Duanmu Rong sat down and explained to Xianyun in detail, "My second brother is on the grassland, and his behavior is very bad. Not to mention that he had ill intentions towards the throne, but his rhetoric alone had confused his father......"
Speaking of this, Xianyun immediately remembered the time when she visited yesterday. Duanmukang's temperament is indeed very uncertain. But the idea he said was relatively easy. Let's just sacrifice my happiness for the sake of rulers.
"You don't know yet, do you?" Duanmu Rong whispered to Xianyun, "My eldest brother has already brought soldiers and horses and is coming here." There will definitely be a vicious battle at that time, think about it, will the second brother give up? Add to that your national hatred, who will suffer from it? β
This news is bad news for Duanmu Kang. For Xianyun, it is good news. If they provoke a civil war in Xirong, then Donglu will be self-defeating. At that time, it will naturally be much easier to restore the country, and the person who will profit from it will be Chu Junhao.
As for the people who have suffered from it, it should be Xianyun. If Xianyun becomes the princess, she will naturally become Chu Junhao's subordinate prisoner at that time. Duanmu Rong is right, you can see it. Duanmu Rong is still a more strategic woman.
The misty smoke clouds stained a colorful glow. Xiaoxiao is approaching the evening, and the city is full of smoke and haze. Thousands of rivers and mountains, treading the remaining four seasons of the year, is always many years. In front of the small table, Ying Ying was surrounded by a wisp of green smoke. What slowly dissipates is endless affection.
In the days that followed, Xianyun did feel Duanmu Kang's sincerity. When she infiltrated the palace to visit Qisu, she was surrounded by the Xijon army. It was a rainy day, and Xianyun looked at the cold iron riders around him, and he only felt that the whole world was gray.
At this moment, Duanmu Kang rushed out with a sword in his hand. In an instant, with the rain and blood scattering. That was the soldiers falling one after another, Duanmu Kang grabbed Xianyun's hand, tightly. was grabbed by Duanmu Kang's hand and watched him fight his way out for himself.
At that moment, Xianyun's heart was full of warmth. Though the rain was pouring down, despite the thunder rumbling. But with Duanmu Kang by his side, Xianyun felt much more steady. At the very least, there will be one person who cares about themselves. Originally, she thought that no one would care about her without Wanning.
A Duanmu Rong, let her experience the taste of supporting each other. A Duanmu Kang, giving her more care. "Sister Yun, with me, you don't have to be afraid," the corners of his smiling eyes were deeply engraved in Xianyun's heart. From then on, it will never be forgotten.
So on the day of the wedding, Xianyun still chose to marry him. I remember that outside the vermilion door, it was Xiao Yihan's indifferent eyes. For some reason, this man took advantage of himself. But all the time, Xianyun can't hate it. She just felt that Xiao Yihan was pitiful.
Lifting the red hijab, she looked at Xiao Yihan who was full of expectations. turned around, but it was Duanmu Kang who was clutching his palm. Time freezes at this moment, as if it can no longer be turned back. In the end, Xianyun still went to Duanmu Kang. At that moment, her heart was happy.
Because she didn't want to, Duanmu Kang became Chu Junhao's prisoner. Maybe become Duanmu Kang's princess, in terms of family affection, Chu Junhao will let him go. "Xianyun, aren't you afraid, the second brother has affected you?" Duanmu Rong thought, her voice a little hesitant.
"I like him," Xianyun smiled and looked at Duanmu Kang, marrying him was her choice, and she wouldn't regret it. Duanmu Kang smiled shallowly and gently held Xianyun's hand. The princess is just a name, and more importantly, the two treat each other sincerely.
Regarding Xiao Yihan's story, Xianyun doesn't want to know too much. She just told Duanmu Rong to tell Xiao Yihan to do things with peace of mind. For the restoration of the country, do your part. Just don't, follow Jiang Lingyan anymore. Otherwise, he will also become the soul of Chu Junhao's sword.
"I will rescue Qi Su, believe me," this is a reason that Xiao Yihan gave to Xianyun, otherwise how could he choose to marry Duanmu Kang. In fact, for Xiao Yihan, it seems that he has begun to move. No matter what, it's something to fight for.
didn't see Xiao Yihan again, Xianyun has always been in the palace. She didn't want Xiao Yihan to be sad, and the cold wind outside the window was bleak. She heard Duanmu Rong say that Xiao Yihan was always around the palace these days. "Third princess, you, let him go," Xianyun didn't want to be seen by Duanmu Kang.
Regarding misunderstandings, in fact, they exist all over the world. It's just that sometimes, it's hard to explain. There is a good saying that an explanation is a cover-up. It was also in the later days that Xianyun finally realized this. The night was silent, and the moonlight had not yet rested.
The sound of the wind blows the eyes that leave people. The old trees and withered vines extend the memories of the past. Time flies, secretly in the depths of every path. Left a deep or shallow mark, but no one saw it, but left in a hurry, never to return.
A period of time, a deep love. They all kicked off again at this moment, thinking that a fire would put an end to this. Unexpectedly, however, it was the beginning of another story. Joy or sorrow, it has already begun. Wanning looked at the lonely figure, and felt a strange feeling in her heart.
"Three days," Jun Hao slowly turned around, his words revealing joy, "we can reach the Jade Pool, I want to come and wait for Brother Yan there." "It's good to escape from the fire. escaped the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, as well as Jiang Lingyan's assassination, and finally saw the light.
For a long time, it seems that the days of this day. Fold two ends, one for Wanning and Jun Hao, and the other for Chen Shaoping, who was unconscious. The dead branches of the surrounding trees swayed in the wind, casting a dark shadow. In Wanning's view, it is enough to have a gentleman.
"Yan Wanning, I'm going to kill you!" didn't wait for Wanning to react, but opened her eyes when she saw Chen Shaoping. Raising a dagger in his hand, he stabbed at Wan Ning. Fortunately, Jun Hao's reaction was quick, and he pulled Wanning behind him.
The dagger was cut through Jun Hao's sleeve by Chen Shaoping, so dangerous! A cold light flashed in Wanning's eyes. She hurriedly grabbed Jun Hao's arm and asked anxiously, "How is it, is it hurt?" "It's still a wound I suffered when I first left Kyoto, and it hasn't healed yet.
Jun Hao patted Wanning's hand gently, meaning to reassure her. Then he slowly walked towards Chen Shaoping and said tentatively: "Shaoping, it's me, I'm Jun Hao...... Put the knife down, and I'll take you home...... Obedient, Shao Ping, put down the knife ......"
Sure enough, Chen Shaoping's emotions slowly calmed down. Jun Hao was just about to put his mind at ease, but he didn't expect Chen Shaoping's eyes to be quick. Picked up the knife on the ground and stabbed it hard at Wan Ning. At that moment, her eyes were full of hatred. "I want you deadβ"
Although Wanning's eyes couldn't see clearly, she could still vaguely see the knife. At dusk, there was a chill. Wan Ning panicked, dodging back and forth, but was still cut by Chen Shaoping's arm. In an instant, blood flowed down his arm.
"Ning'er!" Jun Hao knocked Chen Shaoping unconscious with one palm, and then rushed to see Wanning's injury. It's okay, it's okay, it didn't hurt my bones. Hearing Jun Hao's voice, Wanning's heart completely collapsed. She threw herself into Jun Hao's arms and cried bitterly.
How could former sisters treat each other like this. Wanning really couldn't understand why Chen Shaoping hated herself. If it is said that the destruction of Donglu is caused by itself. Then he was punished - disfigured, blinded, and his memory faded.
It's just that everyone is misunderstanding themselves. It was not easy for Wanning to break free from her grief. But here in Chen Shaoping, he lost his original self. Trying to learn to be strong is not an easy task. "Ning'er, don't be afraid," Jun Hao said softly.
In the days when Jun Hao is there, it becomes short and warm. Jun Hao once said that Chen Shaoping was poisoned. The behind-the-scenes controller should be Jiang Lingyan. Wan Ning took a deep breath and slowly thought about everything along the way. It seems that something is gradually understood.
About Jun Hao is right, they are stepping into Jiang Lingyan's trap step by step. Chen Shaoping was just a chess piece, "We can't take her away," Wan Ning vaguely saw that Chen Shaoping fainted to the ground. In my heart, Chen Shaoping is more hatred than sympathy.
Night falls, no moon, no starlight. It's just a silent cloudy sky, suppressed in my heart. Time begins to move towards the wax moon, winter is approaching, and spring is not far away. Wanning hopes, the moment to heal your eyes. Seeing the gardenia blooming, seeing Jun Hao's smile.
Such a simple dream is just a dream. Years later, at dusk, she took a small kettle and watered the gardenias herself. Watching the gardenia under the glow of the afterglow, it looks more and more vibrant. When the gardenia blooms, it is the arrival of spring.
There was a sound of footsteps, and it was Xianyun coming: "Queen Mother, ready, when will you leave?" "That day was Jun Hao's death day. It was Jiang Lingyan who killed Jun Hao, and it was she who killed him. Wanning will never forget it in her life, so she wants Jiang Lingyan to pay the price.
On both sides of the path, there are several sparse gardenias. Elegant floral fragrance, permeating the world. The tall mound in the royal tomb carries the weight of immovable acacia. The evening breeze blows and sends away the sunset. The gardenia flowers all over the city are just the loneliness of Wanning's inner loneliness.
I just didn't think that in this desolate place. Jun Hao insisted on taking Chen Shaoping away. The reason is that it is dangerous all around, and it is also necessary to cure Chen Shaoping's Gu poison. "I disagree!" Wan Ning shouted at Jun Hao, "With her without me, with me without her!" β
After being with Wan Ning for a long time, Jun Hao heard Wan Ning speak like this for the first time. And full of vinegar, which made Jun Hao very happy. "Ning'er is not a stingy person," Jun Hao deliberately, repeating Wanning's previous words, "Why has it changed again now?" β
"Taking her with you is the most dangerous," Wan Ning pointed at Chen Shaoping, calming down and analyzing, "Gu poison may attack at any time, what if we are unprepared and are injured by her?" I'm okay if I'm hurt, but if you're hurt, what will Donglu do? β
It turned out that it was in Wanning's heart. In the end, it is pretending to be the world, listening to the gentle words. Jun Hao admired her more and more, "Just for this? Is there no point, children's private affairs? Jun Hao leaned close to the root of Wanning's ear, and the hot breath exhaled was a little itchy.
Wanning's ears turned red, and she took a few steps back. Zhengse said: "Let's discuss what to do next." At this moment, although Wanning is angry, she should focus on the overall situation. She still knows this.
After being silent for a long time, Jun Hao slowly spoke: "For three days, we just need to be careful. There is no one here, and I can't rest assured that she is here alone. "Yes, in the end, Chen Shaoping is Jun Hao's wife. What qualifications do you have to make decisions for him?
Thinking of this, Wanning's nose was a little sour. She wanted to cry, but she was afraid that Jun Hao would worry. Now I think about it, Jun Hao's feelings for himself. The truth is unpredictable. Those love words, those promises. Wanning seemed to be listening, a little impatient.
Chu Junhao is the emperor, and he wants to continue his great task of restoring the country. She - Yan Wanning, a little maid in front of the palace. You just need to serve him, so why care. But this is the previous Wanning, but now Wanning has changed: "According to my words, I can't take her away!" β
Listening to Wan Ning's words, Jun Hao had a moment and felt that Wan Ning was a little vexatious. However, the sound of horses' hooves behind him shocked Jun Hao's heart. Through the large rocks, you can clearly hear the sound of the east. It's coming here!
Use Gu poison to stab Wan Ning, and then use it to delay time. So that the Xirong army can search for Chu Junhao's whereabouts! is so vicious that Jun Hao feels a little terrible. "It won't be Jiang Lingyan," Wan Ning muttered to herself, "She still has to rely on you to be the queen, how could she send someone to kill you?" β
