Chapter 23: Li Mo's return
It was already dark, and every household in Luoyang City was lit up, but there were only two courtyards in the prince's mansion with lights, one was the main courtyard where the prince lived, and the other was the West Guest Courtyard where merchants lived. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The house is lit with lights, the businessmen soak in the bathtub to recuperate, in this era of no electricity, people's best pastime after dark is only sleeping, writing a day's score during the day, so that she is also a little sad, the brain is a little dizzy, it seems that this body has not been adjusted to their original best state! After thinking about it, anyway, the monthly letter is over, so I still have to get up early tomorrow and do yoga for a while, otherwise, I'm afraid that on the day of the primary election, my body will be stiff and I can't bend down.
Greensleeves waited for her to get up and put on her clothes, and then carried the water out of the bathtub and poured it out, and then washed herself and lay down on the cot outside.
"Green Sleeves! You said that I would go to that Li Zhi tomorrow and ask him to send me back to Yunshuifang, can he agree? The merchant was lying on the big Nanmu bed in the middle of the room, his eyes staring at the top of the bed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"I don't know! It should work, right? Greensleeves bit his fingernails, not quite sure. The prince looked mild. ”
"Yes! He seemed to be very mild. The merchant looked at the top of the tent in distraction, and before he knew it, he fell asleep.
The moon gradually rose in the middle of the sky, and the silver-white moonlight flowed into the whole room like water, and retreated from Yan who was standing outside the door, Li Mo silently pushed open the door, walked into the house, picked up the bed tent by the side of the room, and quietly looked at the sleeping businessman, her eyes gently slid from her closed eyelashes, slightly flushed pretty face.
Because of King Wu's liaison with military attachés in the court, Li Mo made a special trip to Chang'an and arranged for his secret guards to investigate how many generals with military power reached an agreement with Li Ke. This incident made him stay in Chang'an for a lot of days, and every night, he would think: Is the merchant already asleep? Does the businessman's stomach still hurt? Is it good for businessmen to eat?
Although Yan would write down the things that the merchant did that day on a piece of paper every day, and the flying pigeon passed the book to him, those boring sentences could not comfort his heart at all, obviously just a woman who had not been friends for a long time, but inexplicably held his heart, making him involuntarily worry and worry. Reaching out and gently touching her face, feeling the seductive smoothness and tenderness under his hands, Li Mo's eyes became deeper and deeper, and every time he thought of her lonely eyes when she took the stage, his heart hurt a little.
Shang Shang felt a little unstable in her sleep, as if something had been staring at her, which made her a little alert, and when she opened her sleepy eyes, she saw a person sitting next to the bed in a haze, Shang Shang was startled, and the last bit of sleepiness disappeared.
hurriedly turned over and sat up, only to see clearly that it was Li Mo sitting in front of him, and he was so sure that it was because Li Zhi would never run to her bed in the middle of the night.
"Y-you're back?" The merchant asked out loud, and as soon as the words came out, he realized that it was so strange, like a wife who was waiting for her husband to come home?
"Hmm!" Li Mo replied in a loud voice, his voice coming from his throat, low and magnetic, very charming.
"Why don't you go back to rest so late? Why did you come to me? Shang Shang stuck out his tongue and licked his somewhat dry lips, in such a night, he sat in front of the bed and looked at her motionlessly, which made her a little inexplicably nervous.
Looking at her tongue licking her lips, a flame ignited in Li Mo's eyes, almost setting her on fire.
Shang Shang moved uncomfortably, but accidentally dropped the thin quilt on his body, revealing his body only wearing a middle coat, the thin middle coat could barely block Li Mo's sharp gaze, through this layer of middle clothes, Shang Shang's weak shoulders, and the chest on his chest Yingying can be seen at a glance.
"Ahh The merchant snorted lightly, hurriedly pulled up the thin quilt, his face was red, this stinky man, ran to someone's room in the middle of the night, it was really ill-intentioned!
"Merchant!" Li Mo called her name as if sighing, stretched out a hand to caress his haunting face, and gently brushed his thumb over her lips.
"Huh?" Shang Shang looked up into his eyes, but in an instant fell into those pools of watery eyes, those eyes seemed to have magical power, making her look at him obsessively, forgetting everything around her, only this pair of eyes that fascinated her, only this man who fascinated her.
Looking at Shang Shang's intoxicated eyes, Li Mo couldn't help but gradually get closer to Shang Shang, and his sexy thin lips carefully touched Shang Shang's red lips.
There was a tempting sweet fragrance on her lips, and the soft lips were waiting for him to pick them like budding flowers, holding her little face with both hands, as if holding the most precious treasure in the world, Li Mo's lips tossed and turned on the lips of the merchants, sucking, as if they wanted to swallow her, seducing her little tongue to dance with him, lingering on her lips with deep attachment and domineering demand.
Shang Shang felt that she was about to run out of breath, Li Mo's breath was like a spell, enveloping her inside, her breath, her world was full of Li Mo's smell, she hung her arms weakly, her whole body was weak, and she felt that there was a fire burning in her chest, gradually spreading, gradually burning the plain, burning her whole person was about to melt into a puddle of water, and finally evaporated into smoke.
Li Mo's hand gradually moved down, tightly confined Shang Shang in his arms, and hugged her tightly as if he was afraid of losing her, as if he wanted to rub her into his body, and after a while, he finally let go of her lips.
"Merchant! Merchants! Li Mo whispered her name.
Shang Shang's mind was still in a coma, and there was only one consciousness left in his mind: he kissed me! The breath left by Li Mo on her body was like an imprint, deeply engraved on her heart. His arms wrapped tightly around her waist, his chest pressed against hers without gaps, and the two men pressed together like conjoined babies.
It took a while for the merchant to react, "You guy! How can this be! The merchant shouted a little shyly, originally angry and scolding, but after the stimulation, the weak tone seemed as cute as coquettishness.
"How am I?" Li Mo looked at the businessman who was shy and anxious, and his face was full of red tides, and whispered playfully, but his arms were still around her and refused to let go. If he hadn't stayed in Chang'an for so many days this time, he didn't know that he would miss Shangshang so much, so deep that as soon as he returned to Luoyang, the first thing he did when he stepped into the prince's mansion was to come to see her and see if she was doing well.
As soon as he saw her sleeping face and frowning slightly in his sleep, he could no longer suppress the desire gushing out of his heart, and just wanted to hold her in his arms and love her well.
"Y-what a bastard!" The merchant had tears in her eyes, she grew so big, but no man had ever treated her like this, Li Mo was the first, as a girl, although she was not an old antique with a conservative concept of chastity, she also hoped that her first kiss was given to a man she liked, but this Li Mo was too much.
"Good! Don't be angry, I'm a bastard! I'm bad! Li Mo looked at the merchant's teary eyes reluctantly, this abrasive little thing can always make him feel distressed.
Taking a breath, Shang Shang held back the sullen breath in his heart, raised his eyes and asked, "Let me ask you, what is your relationship with the crown prince Li Zhi?" Why do you look exactly like him? ”
"Does it matter?" Li Mo's expression instantly turned cold, he didn't want to mention the past, he didn't want to remind himself of the things that had passed.
"Are you angry?" Shang Shang asked carefully, I don't know why, even though the corners of Li Mo's mouth were still slightly upturned, Shang Shang intuitively thought that Li Mo was angry.
The two people in the room were silent, until the merchant thought that Li Mo would not answer, and Li Mo's voice sounded in the room.
"I'm Li Zhi's twin brother." Li Mo said coldly.
"Heh-" Shang Shang gasped, although she had thought about this greatest possibility, but she always told herself that Li Zhi did not have twin brothers in history, but now, Li Mo personally confirmed this possibility, which made her a little unbelievable.
"Li Zhi was born a moment earlier than me, in the practice of the royal family, the smaller of the twins belongs to the one who is abandoned, and he is not allowed to be crowned king, he is not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, and he is not allowed to see the light of day, I am an invisible existence in the royal family. Except for the emperor and empress, and a few loyal subordinates, no one knew who I was. Li Mo said coldly, as if he was telling someone else's story.
"Li Mo." Looking at the indifferent man in front of her, Shang Shang only felt that her heart was tightened, a man who was not recognized by his family, she couldn't imagine how hard his life should be? She stretched out her hand and gently held Li Mo's hand on the brocade quilt, as if this would give him some strength enough to support the soul that was about to break.
"Before the age of nine, I have been living in the west side of the Zhaoyang Palace, I have seen only two palace maids and the queen, the queen often comes to see me, but she never let me call her the queen mother, I didn't understand, but gradually I know that I am the one who was abandoned. When I was nine years old, Li Zhi knelt outside the Zhaoyang Hall for a day and a night, begging the queen to release me from the palace, and it was also on that day that I saw Zhi for the first time through the window lattice of the West Side Palace, at that time, he was only as old as me, I don't know how he knew about my existence, I don't know until now, but I watched him staggering under the sun, watching him finally pass out on the ground, I don't understand why he did this. Li Mo's voice was as thin as a gossamer, dream-like recalling the past that seemed to be about to be forgotten by himself, and on this night, he suddenly wanted to tell her everything, to tell this woman who was as lonely as him, perhaps, in this way, they would not be lonely again.
"On the third day, as soon as Zhi woke up, he asked the queen if he could take me away, and the queen agreed, and Zhi immediately asked someone to carry him to the west side hall where I lived, and ordered someone to take me and him back to his palace outside the palace, and that day he lay in the carriage and kept holding my hand, and said to me, Mo, I will take you back. At that time, I looked at him for a long time, until the carriage entered the prince's mansion, and I said to him, "Zhi, will you leave me?" Li Mo smiled in a trance, and the merchant looked at him with some heartache, she never thought that this man who looked so cold and arrogant would have such a past. Seeing his somewhat trance-like smile, she couldn't help but want to hug him.
"Do you know what Osamu told me?" Li Mo suddenly seemed to come back to his senses, his eyes were bright and scared, and he looked at Shang Shang, "He said, Mo, you are my younger brother, if I live for a day, I will not let you be wronged!" ”
"Zhi is a very gentle person, and the only thing he has done in his life to disobey his parents is to bring me out of the Zhaoyang Palace." Li Mo seemed to have finally let go of something, and said those past lightly.
"Li Mo!" Shang Shang squeezed his hand and said calmly: "Don't think about the past anymore, you are still alive, people have to look forward!" Shang Shang quietly looked at Li Mo's eyes, which were a pair of eyes full of wisdom, and the light reflected in Shang Shang's eyes, showing the same loneliness.
"What happened in the past can't be recovered, and your birth is not your fault, so we all have to look forward, and only by looking forward can we find a way out, Mo, are you right?" Shang Shang squeezed Li Mo's hand, maybe she didn't know her heart yet, but she knew that at this moment, she didn't want to let go of his hand.
Meeting her gaze, Li Mo looked at it stunned for a moment, and finally, a silent laugh bloomed.
