Chapter 24: The Death of the Flute
It wasn't until the carriage stopped and Murong Chenxi stretched out his hand to me that I realized that I had arrived at the palace. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I looked at him, his eyes were faint, and I couldn't see any emotion in my deep eyes, I hesitated, and finally I stubbornly got out of the car by myself and didn't let him help me.
I'm already fragile once today, I don't want to be a second time, I want to be a stubborn woman.
My refusal, he was not angry, nor annoyed, withdrew his hand, and entered the house with me.
"Princess, you're back."
Murong Chenxi sent me to my residence, and Qianping shouted excitedly when she saw me coming back.
As soon as the words fell, when he saw Murong Chenxi standing behind him, he restrained his smile and bent over and saluted, "Slave and maid see the prince." ”
Murong Chenxi waved his hand and said, "Get up." ”
"Thank you, Lord Wang." Qianping got up and thanked him.
Without waiting for me to speak, Murong Chenxi instructed Qianping, "Take good care of the princess." Then he turned to meet my gaze, "I guess you are tired too, have a good rest, and I will ask someone to send you to the room for dinner." With that, he turned and left.
My lips moved, and I froze there, too late to speak, probably not knowing what to say, but his figure was already far away from me.
That figure was a little lonely, and for a while, I had mixed feelings in my heart.
"Princess, nothing happened, did you?" Qianping saw that I was distracted and asked softly.
I came back to my senses, smiled, and said, "Why do you ask?" ”
I always feel that Qianping's question is a little strange, I went to the palace, and I didn't rob the house, what could I do?
Qianping replied: "Princess, you don't know, not long after you left, the prince returned to the palace, just got off the horse and heard the news that the housekeeper said that you entered the palace, and angrily blamed the housekeeper, I have never seen the prince so angry during the time I came to the palace from the Chu State, and I didn't have time to take off the cloak on my shoulders and get on the horse and enter the palace." Princess, you don't know, seeing that the prince is so anxious, and you haven't come back for a long time, I thought something really happened, I can only be in a hurry in the prince alone, and I regret not going with you, but fortunately, the prince brought you back safely. Qianping breathed a long sigh of relief for my safe return.
At this moment, I reacted because of Qianping's words, and then I remembered the navy blue cloak on Murong Chenxi's shoulders.
He must have been very tired from running all the way back, and he was worried about my entry into the palace, so he didn't care about many fast horses coming to the palace to find me. I clearly remember that he suddenly stood at the door of the Jinyun Palace, and the worry and fear in his eyes were clearly expressed, that was Murong Chenxi I had never seen before.
He has always been a person who has everything in his hands in my eyes, who knows, he will be scared today, what is it? I wondered, why was he so nervous that I would go to see Concubine Jin? Although Concubine Jin admitted that she killed Wanli, when I saw her today, she was just a kind woman who wanted to recite Buddha.
I can't help but sigh, after so long, the old people can't see each other, when will Murong Chenxi let go of the resentment in his heart, and when can he be really happy?
"Princess?" Seeing that I was silent, Qianping called in a low voice.
I hummed, and then I pulled Qianping to sit down and told Qianping everything I saw today.

"What?" After hearing this, Qianping screamed in surprise, unable to believe what I said.
"Princess, did Concubine Jin really say that?"
I nodded, "What Concubine Jin said herself, how can it be fake." No wonder Murong Chenxi didn't want to see his mother, and he sympathized with him a little.
"As you said, princess, the prince seems to be a little cute." As she spoke, Qianping suddenly turned to me again and diverted the topic, "Princess, the prince hates Concubine Jin so much, when you went to see Concubine Jin, the prince didn't do anything to you, right?" I see that the housekeeper has been scolded a lot. ”
Knowing that the housekeeper was blamed by Murong Chenxi for leaving the house without permission, I was a little upset, after all, I was the one who caused the housekeeper. He was acting on orders, and I didn't take others into account, so I didn't think about it, and hurriedly asked, "Is the housekeeper okay?" ”
Although he was scolded by Murong Chenxi. Nothing else. The princess is relieved. ”
As soon as Qianping said this, I was a little relieved.

After dinner, I remembered what happened today, and it was late at night, and I couldn't sleep.
Walking to the door of the room, the moonlight was shining tonight, and an inexplicable sadness rose in my heart, if everyone's sadness is the same way, then at the end, will there be a person, standing there, waiting for the Yiren?
The Northern Desert is the destination of the second half of my life, and I don't know what my fate will be in this country? I can't refuse this, my fate is arranged here because of someone, I can't decide the fate of others, but I don't want others to control my own destiny. Everything is a lot of helplessness.
At this time, I don't know who is playing the flute in the house, the flute is graceful and moving, although it is good, but the endless sadness of the person who pours it out, how can the person who plays it have such sadness, and he is also a person with a story.
Out of curiosity, I went in search of the sound of the flute, and before I knew it, I came to the gazebo.
I didn't step forward, but chose to hide in one place, because I saw Murong Chenxi there.
He leaned his back against the railing of the gazebo, but his eyes were fixed on the guqin playing the flute.
The sadness of the flute has a kind of magic that penetrates people's hearts, and I feel a little inexplicably sad when I listen to it. At night, the sky was dark, Murong Chenxi, he didn't have the coldness of the day, nor the domineering expression in his expression, let alone the indifference on his face. At this time, he seemed lonely, and I didn't bother him, maybe he didn't want me to see him, just as I didn't want him to see me during the day.
Maybe everyone has another side they don't want to see.
I stood for a while, then walked away silently, and returned to the residence, I actually ignited my compassion and wanted to help Murong Chenxi, although I hated him, but I don't know why I had such a strange thought, probably he is the same as himself, he has a person in his heart who can't be erased!
Perhaps, he and I are both lovely people in this world, the more lovely we are, the more we want to make ourselves strong, the more we want to live well, I don't want to be seen by others under the fragility of the outside, and I don't want to exchange for the sympathy of others.
