Chapter 39: Leaving the Palace
The conversation between the two fell into Nie Ying's ears word for word, and Nie Ying did not hold a grudge against the old man's proposal, as a courtier, this is a must.
There were still words in his ears that were almost confessional, and Nie Ying was intoxicated, and his mood was extremely heavy. The power of the Shenyuan Sect is huge, Nie Ying already knows how much pressure it will bring to the imperial dynasty to Xinyu, and Nie Ying also knows it, but he didn't expect that he would have such a high position in Xinyu's heart.
He took a deep breath of the cold air, but Nie Ying didn't feel the cold. Looking at the lush colors that came out of employing people, Nie Ying didn't have to think about it, he had already made a decision.
"In that case, let's take a good look at this palace, and leave a memory in my heart. Saying this, Nie Ying was very calm, but the expression in his expression was reluctant.
When it was nearly dark, Nie Ying walked to his room. When you enter the courtyard of the palace, you will see the lights in the room and the enticing fragrance coming from it.
After walking a few steps briskly and pushing open the door, Xinyu and Min'er were waiting in the room, on the table, hot meals.
"Childe, you're back, do you really think you're lost in the palace?" Min'er chuckled, not seeming to understand what Nie Ying meant.
Xinyu said angrily: "Let you walk around the palace, I didn't let you go for a day, I'm hungry." ”
Nie Ying smiled and said to the two: "The palace is very beautiful, it makes me forget the time." Min'er, can you go out first, I want to have a good talk with Xinyu. ”
"Yes!" Seeing Nie Ying's smiling expression, Min'er answered, walked out of the room thoughtfully, and closed the door with a 'creak'.
"What do you want to tell me, so mysterious?" put the dishes and chopsticks in place, and looked at Nie Ying with a smile.
As Xinyu, delivering meals and tidying up dishes and chopsticks, these things were not her turn to do, but now for Nie Ying, Xinyu is more like a girl from an ordinary family. The inadvertent action made Nie Ying more determined in his heart.
"I've known you for so long, and I've never had a meal together, so it seems like I shouldn't have been. Nie Ying said, sat down, stretched out his hand to pick up the empty bowl, and brought a bowl of hot soup to Xinyu.
Xinyu smiled and took the hot soup. The same action, but different feelings. Time passes slowly in the dinner for two, slow and peaceful.
"Yes, I'm full. "The lazy posture fully reveals the wonderful body of the heart, giving people infinite reverie.
Nie Ying smiled indifferently, personally poured a cup of tea for Xinyu, then sat opposite her, and asked casually, "Xinyu, are you so busy every day?"
Xinyu chuckled, "I'm used to it." My father had been wounded in a war, so I was the only child, so I began to be sensible and followed my father to prepare for his future accession to the throne. ”
"Being born in a wealthy family is not necessarily a blessing. Saying this, Nie Ying didn't know whether to speak from his heart or himself.
"Hehe, but more people are willing to have this kind of birth. Glory and wealth, who doesn't want it?"
Nie Ying whispered: "Yes, who doesn't want to." It's just that you don't necessarily get more than you get. ”
Staring at Nie Ying's young face that was not very eye-catching, he said in a straight voice: "For so many years, I have been very tired, and I am always fantasizing, if I have an elder brother or younger brother to inherit the throne, will it be easier? ”
Nie Ying was stunned, he didn't expect that Xinyu didn't care about his identity, and said such straightforward words, and his heart was slightly shaken while he was moved.
"If one day, I'm not in this palace, I'm not by your side, you... ”
"No, it won't. Xinyu interrupted Nie Ying's words, and he was a little domineering: "As long as you don't hate me, I won't let you leave." Life in the palace may be depressing, but I will try to make you feel happy. ”
"Heart Talk?" Nie Ying took a deep breath in his heart, and forcibly suppressed the impulse that was about to swell in his head: "Have you ever thought that one day when the dynasty stabilizes, you will give up the throne to others, and from then on you will live a stable life without any struggle?"
"I've thought about it too!" said in his heart, and a faint crimson suddenly appeared on his pretty face, and then he said: "It's just how easy it is to talk about? The stability of the dynasty is not difficult, but the difficulty lies in the hearts of the people." Since I sat in this position and taken over this responsibility, I know that it will be difficult to get rid of it again in this life. Nie Ying, in the human world, there will be a place where people can really settle down?"
"That's right, even if you are arrogant and dominate the world, you can't live a peaceful life. Nie Ying said lightly, as the empress, she can see her heart much more thoroughly than Nie Ying.
"How could you think of asking me this question?" Xinyu looked at Nie Ying calmly, with her intelligence, she would naturally think that Nie Ying would not ask this on a whim.
"Nothing. Nie Ying smiled, held the teacup and said, "I just don't want to see you too tired, I don't know if what I said is right, in short, I don't think this kind of life is suitable for you." ”
"There's nothing that doesn't fit, and when you get used to it, you get used to it. Since I was a child, I have seen a lot of things in this palace, and some things have long been numb. Speaking of these, there is a sense of loneliness between my eyebrows, but that's all.
"Okay, it's getting late, you should rest early. Glancing at Nie Ying, his expression was a little helpless, the identity of the empress made Xinyu unable to do what he wanted to do like everyone else.
"Xinyu?" When Xinyu was about to step out of the door, Nie Ying suddenly stopped her.
"What's wrong?" turned around, his heart was bright, and when he saw Nie Ying's eager gaze, he couldn't help but feel a little unnatural.
The dark eyes gradually turned clear, Nie Ying suddenly stepped forward, stretched out his arms, hugged her fiercely into his arms, and said, "No matter when, don't worry about others, because it's not worth it." ”
"No one else is worth it, but there is one person who makes me willing to do anything for him. Xinyu smiled sweetly, and exchanged glances with each other for a while before turning to leave.
Letting the cold breeze blow on his body from the open door seemed to make Nie Ying's mind clearer, watching the figure of the beautiful woman disappear in sight, the heart that was shaken by the last sentence of his heart has become extremely firm again.
After spending some days in the palace quietly, Nie Ying wandered around the entire palace, whether it was the library or the palaces. In this regard, Xinyu is also very happy. At the beginning, she thought that Nie Ying couldn't withstand such a blow because of the loss of cultivation, but now that she saw Nie Ying's high interest, she gradually forgot about it.
The moonlight is like frost, sprinkled on people, slightly chilly. A figure strode through the avenue of the palace, and there was no way to avoid the soldiers. At such a speed, the figure soon came to the gate out of the palace.
Paused beside the palace gate, the figure turned his head to look back at the lights inside, and vaguely, he seemed to see the first woman who made his heart move after coming to this world.
"Xinyu, take care!"
"Childe, it's so late, you want to leave the palace?"
took out the gold medal given by his heart and handed it to the soldier guarding the door, the other party hurriedly said respectfully, and the other people quickly opened the palace gate.
Nie Ying nodded and walked out of the palace gate. Turning around and watching the palace door slowly close, there was a 'boom', as if a world was being forcibly separated, but at the same time, the heart was also hardened.
Late at night, the square outside the palace was still crowded. Choosing a random direction, Nie Ying quickly disappeared into the crowd. If you lose a protective net when you leave the palace, the most important thing now is to find a quiet place to recover your strength as soon as possible. At that time, whether it was the Duan family, Wen Ping and his gang, or the potential enemy Shen Yuanzong, Nie Ying would have the confidence to face it. I'm still confident now, but with some pressure on myself, progress will be faster.
A dark night has passed, and everyone has started a new day, and the palace is no exception. Retreating from the court, the heart of Xinyu had already drifted somewhere, and with Min'er, he hurried towards the harem.
Knock on the door a few times, and after a few minutes, no one answers. Xinyu whispered to the palace maid outside: "Hasn't Gongzi Nie gotten up yet?"
The palace maid said respectfully: "Yes, I haven't seen my son come out since the lights went out last night." ”
Xinyu frowned slightly, and when Min'er saw this, she quickly pushed open the door. Although Nie Ying's cultivation has been lost, a cultivator will never get up at this hour.
"Your Majesty, Childe is not here. Min'er, who entered the door, exclaimed.
In the room, all the belongings were neatly arranged, as if no one had ever lived there. However, Xinyu can still feel that there is still the breath of Nie Ying here.
"Your Majesty, Childe may go out for a walk. Looking at Xinyu's expression, Min'er hurriedly said, "Come on, go and get the son back." ”
"No need. Xinyu looked at the flat bed, remembering what Nie Ying said to her a few nights ago, she already knew that Nie Ying was gone.
"Your Majesty?"
"You go out first, I want to be alone. Withdrawing everyone, Xinyu suddenly leaned weakly on the bed where Nie Ying had slept in.
"Why are you leaving, why are you leaving for me?" I had an answer in my heart, but I still couldn't figure it out. Although he has not been with Nie Ying for a long time, he already knows a little about him, so he didn't tell Nie Ying many things, just because he was afraid that he would have pressure and burden in his heart.
On the face that was stronger than a man, at this moment, I couldn't help but shed tears, "Nie Ying, do you know? In this life, you are the first man to make me move, and the man who made me cry for the first time." Nie Ying, where are you?"
