Chapter 47: The Friendship Breaks
Tang Ying heard her blunt, almost provocative declaration, and couldn't help asking, "What is the emperor?" His "He is to you"
Wu Mei sneered heavily, "What about me? You should know best, right? After the freshness has passed, I am a stumbling block that prevents him from expanding his harem, a careerist who covets his country, and now, I am still a demon who kills children. ”
"Not really. He trusts you and loves you dearly! Tang Ying struggled, but was interrupted by a burst of her wild laughter, "Trust is because he is afraid of the strength of the eldest grandson and Shangguan, so he has to join forces with me." Loved? Ah Ying, who he loves, you know best! ”
Tang Ying blushed for no reason, and when she saw it, her expression became more and more hideous, "Although you don't have a little reputation, you have already occupied his heart." ”
"It's not like that. I only love Chunfeng alone. "But he's dead, and you're back. If you don't want to, what are you going to do when you come back? ”
Tang Ying also became angry when he heard such a question, "What am I doing when I come back?" It's not to protect you from being killed by Ming Chongyan, hasn't Hong'er's sacrifice been able to wake you up? ”
"Don't talk nonsense! Hong'er's death has nothing to do with him, is it ...... Someone else! With flames in her eyes, she seemed to have determined who the killer was.
Crazy, she's crazy.
Tang Ying had never seen her look so crazy, all of this was caused by Ming Chongyan!
Wu Mei restrained her expression and asked coldly: "I will ask the last time, are you willing to submit to me until now?" ”
Tang Ying asked rhetorically: "Are you willing to expel Ming Chongyan?" ”
Wu Mei seemed to think that this proposal was extremely ridiculous, so she simply smiled and bent over, and it took a long time before she said, "Of course I don't want to, we have already become one." Actually, I don't want you to go back to the palace at all, so how could I give him up for you? ”
Tang Ying held back her tears and asked loudly: "Do you mean that our friendship for decades is about to be broken off for him?" ”
Wu Mei's smile gradually became stiff, I don't know if she remembered for a moment the days when the two of them walked together, but in the end she sneered and said, "Ah Ying." How can there be decades? Our friendship dissipated sooner than you think. Her voice faded down, "A long time ago, a long time ago, a long time ......"
It's over. That's the end. Tang Ying told himself in his heart.
She knelt down and kowtowed to the door with an expressionless face, Wu Mei was surprised, and asked softly, "What are you doing here?" ”
Tang Ying stood up and dusted off her skirt, and replied coldly: "This knock is to tell Cangtian Mingyue that the agreement between you and me to marry Jin Lan is over." Since you insist on joining forces with Ming Chongyan, I can no longer continue to protect you. I will destroy him at all costs, for Hong'er, for Chunfeng, for the people who died because of him! ”
Wu Mei waved the sleeves of her wide robe, "Then, if you see us again, we will be enemies." ”
Tang Ying looked at her without flinching, "I hope you can repent." With that, she walked out of the temple without looking back.
Ming Chongyan stood at the gate of the palace dressed in white, looked at her with a smile, and even said shamelessly: "I knew that you would come back." ”
If Tang Ying had been in the past, she might not have been able to hold her breath, but now that she understood her position, she could calmly answer: "Of course, I came here for you." ”
"Oh? You're kidding. Ming Chong smiled playfully.
Tang Ying smiled even brighter, "How can this be a joke?" In this palace, only one person between you and me can live. So I can only tell you while you're alive. ”
"Unfortunately, I'm already dead." A steaming dead breath came out of Ming Chongyan's sleeves. Tang Ying did not flinch and fought angrily. Ming Chongyan was afraid that the ball of light would appear unexpectedly, so he put away his dead breath and walked towards Wu Mei gracefully.
Tang Ying waited for him to walk away before he slightly lowered his head and glanced at the cold sweat on his palm. I'm afraid, but she shouldered the fate of Li Zhi, Li Xian and even the entire Li family, forcing herself to be strong.
Came out of the study and went straight to Li Zhi's bedroom. Compared with before, the imperial pomp and circumstance of the front and back. Now the Penglai Hall is very cold. From afar, I saw the old eunuch serving Li Zhi looking forward to it at the door, and when I saw her, I was overjoyed, and I hurriedly ran to the dormitory to report to Li Zhi.
Tang Ying couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, he actually felt like going home, and swept away the gloomy aura just now in a moment. She dusted off her body, gently wiped her cheeks with her sleeve, and then walked briskly into the emperor's bedroom.
Li Zhi was not as decadent as he imagined, but calmly sat on the dragon bed in his clothes and read a book. Seeing Tang Ying, he put down the book and opened his arms to her, and she immediately pounced into his arms like a bird.
"It's hard for you these days." Tang Ying raised his head in his arms and looked at his gray hair with some distress. He smiled gently, stroked her forehead and said, "Ah Ying, you have lost weight and tanned, but you are still the same beauty, a more vivid beauty." She remembered Wu Mei's question, and couldn't help hugging Li Zhi tightly, "You, you will make me happy at any time." ”
"So are you." Li Zhi also hugged her tightly, and said for a long time: "Welcome back, I miss you very much." ”
The two let go of their hands and each talked about their experiences since they separated. When Li Zhi heard that Tang Ying had gathered warlocks to exterminate Ming Chongyan's puppet army, he couldn't help but grab her hand and said, "I only heard that you lobbied the minister to help me withdraw the edict of abdication, but I didn't know that you had done so many great things in secret. ”
Tang Ying shook his head, "It's only because I forced him to be anxious that he pointed the finger at the palace." That's why Hong'er was involved. ”
Li Zhi shook his head and patted her hand and said, "How can I blame you for this?" If the demons are not eliminated for a day, I am afraid that all of us will not be able to escape the enemy. Tang Ying in turn clasped his hand and said, "Don't worry. I always felt like someone was helping me, and things had to turn around. Moreover, the trend of history is irreversible, and the Heavenly Dao will deal with Ming Chongyan. ”
Li Zhi waited for a while and asked, "Ah Ying, I have long felt that you seem to know what we don't know." Will you also be unpredictable? ”
Tang Ying smiled, "No. I have a more effective secret weapon. ”
Li Zhi let out a sigh, "Anyway, you're back." I couldn't ask for anything more. Alas, if you didn't want to be a few years earlier, even if you didn't want to, I would have made you a concubine and tied you to me. But now, I'm too old to delay you. ”
Tang Ying remembered that they had known each other for nearly thirty years, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart. Li Zhi plays many roles in her heart, friends, relatives, suitors, and playmates. The time they have been together is far more than that of her and Li Chunfeng, and all kinds of tastes can no longer be summed up in one or two sentences.
The two of them sat quietly like this, and the cicadas outside gradually became clear, as if they were recounting their past.
"Ah Ying." He spoke slowly. Tang Ying turned to look at him, and couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that his expression was complicated, so he asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
He smiled kindly, two subtle lines appearing on the corners of his mouth. He asked, "I want to marry you to Xian'er as the crown princess, are you willing?" ”
