Chapter 18: Confession
"I'm looking for something for you, where have you been, why did you come back. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Su Ruohan's voice was a little hoarse, and he felt that the whole person was about to burn.
"I'm going to get some refreshments for the girl." Bilian said lightly.
"You rest, I'll go first." Mu Changqing got up, strode out, and left the room.
"Whew-"
She could finally exhale a breath, and the atmosphere had really suffocated her.
Bi Lian smiled happily: "Miss Su, you and the young owner ...... you"
"Stop, don't talk nonsense, we don't have anything, he just pretended to be cool and handsome, and took Han Mengyi's sword stubbornly, not to mention that he was injured, and let Zhengqing also hurt his arm, I don't know how he is now." Su Ruohan is indeed a little worried about Zhengqing, he is too upright, but he is also prone to injury.
Bi Lian was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and said anxiously: "Zhengqing, he is injured!" It's not serious, how can it be. ”
Su Ruohan smiled faintly, then looked her up and down, and didn't say anything.
Bilian was worried about Zhengqing, where could she understand her eyes, but she just wanted to know whether his injuries were serious.
"You like Zhengqing, don't you?" Su Ruohan laughed happily as if she had discovered something new.
Bilian was worried about him just now, but she forgot her identity as a maidservant, and she showed too much emotion, so that she could see the clue, and her cheeks couldn't help but blush.
"Who said I liked him anymore." Bi Lian's voice was glutinous, and she continued: "We are brothers in the same sect, and it is right to care for each other. ”
Su Ruohan deliberately lengthened his voice and said, "Oh-fellow brothers." A hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Mu Changqing is also injured, why don't you worry so much." ”
"Didn't the young owner have you to bandage it, where is Bilian's turn to worry."
I have to go around again, I can't explain it clearly, and I don't bother to explain to her, I don't have anything with Mu Changqing, why are they all watching the excitement one by one, and it's not a big deal.
"I saw you peeking in the Peony Pavilion today, but I didn't know who you were looking at at at the time, but now it's a little clearer, but Zhengqing seems to be ......" Su Ruohan was a little embarrassed.
It was obvious that Zhengqing didn't set his eyes on her for a moment, he was just a fellow disciple to her, as if there was nothing else.
"Bilian is just a maidservant, not worthy."
She stepped forward and grabbed her hand and said, "Who said it's not worthy, I think you and Zhengqing are very compatible, but have you told him your thoughts?" ”
Bi Lian shook her head, then her eyes lit up, and she said, "Miss Su, don't tell it, this is a secret." ”
Su Ruohan looked at the shy look on her face, couldn't help but smile, nodded, and said, "Unless you tell him in person, I won't interfere in this matter, don't worry." ”
Bi Lian suddenly thought of something, 'ah', and then said, "Look at my memory, how can I forget it." ”
"What's wrong?" Su Ruohan asked with some confusion.
"The third prince will meet you in Biluo Pavilion tonight." Bilian said lightly.
Su Ruohan was a little confused, and said lightly: "Xu Jinghao wants to see me?!" ”
Biluo Pavilion.
Listen to the broken strings, break the three thousand obsessions. Falling flowers are annihilated, and the wind ripples are annihilated. If the flower is pitiful, it falls on whose fingertips.
At night, the stars are dotted and dazzling, and the pair of figures under the moon are walking slowly on the sheep intestine path.
There was silence between them, but after a long time, Xu Jinghao quietly took her hand.
Su Ruohan was shocked in her heart and quietly avoided it.
"You and I have actually had a lot of shares, since when did it start?" Xu Jinghao's voice was a little hoarse, but he didn't stop and continued to walk side by side with her.
"You are His Royal Highness the King of Jin, I am the third lady of Sufu who has fled, Yu Li, I should respect you, respect you, Yu Qing, I should know my identity even more."
"Ruohan." He called her softly, in a very gentle tone, as if he had gone back to many years ago, many years ago on such a night, the two of them did not say anything, but she smiled very easily, and he could also hold her hand, but now.
There's no going back.
She raised her head, her eyes were full of watery rhyme, waiting for his second sentence, but he refused to speak.
"When I can't see you, I always think about what I say when I see you, what scene we will meet, I think more than once, tell you everything I want to say to you in those days, but after seeing you, I just want to tell you that it's good to see you." There was a hint of tenderness in his voice.
"Sister Ruohan, do you know? I have you in my dreams, and even if I'm crying, I don't want anyone to wake me up. ”
"If you understand all my affection, then don't let it down."
"The only person who accompanies me to ride around the world on horseback can only be that I don't want anything but you."
Su Ruohan lowered her head, she knew his thoughts, but her mind was not on him, after all, there was a mistake between them, everything was wrong, how could she have the strength to explain it to him, how could she explain it, this childhood sweetheart was just a dream of his own.
And she, deceived him.
"Why don't you speak?"
She sighed lightly, her eyes flashing with a hint of mist, and said, "It's good not to let down the tranquility of this moment." ”
Xu Jinghao stopped, stepped forward to stabilize her shoulders, and said word by word: "Ruohan, you know, I have always had you in my heart, I like you!" ”
“……”
"You rejected me three years ago, I know you have a hard time, I have been waiting, when you grow up, and when I have the ability, no one will stop us anymore!"
Seeing that she didn't react, he suddenly pulled her into his arms.
Su Ruohan trembled all over, such a strange and familiar embrace, her heart did not have a trace of waves, today he changed his past warm and affectionate appearance, and even showed his scheming regardless of it, making her feel strange and afraid.
Su Ruohan panicked, and hurriedly pushed him away, her cheeks couldn't help but crimson, she turned her head and wanted to dodge, but unexpectedly, her feet slipped, and her body fell to the side.
"Press-"
He held her up in time, stopping her slender waist, and a strange breath made her mind unable to think.
Unexpectedly, her feet twisted, but the ankle bone made her sore forehead with cold sweat.
"What's wrong with you?" He looked at her with a worried expression.
"I'm fine." She wanted to push him away, but he was too strong to push his clamps.
"You've got an injured foot." The words fell, but he picked her up by the waist.
She exclaimed, but subconsciously wrapped her hands around his neck and said coldly, "What are you doing?" ”
"Don't worry, your foot is injured, I just want to carry you back to the Dream Pavilion." After Xu Jinghao finished speaking, he hugged her and walked back.
She lowered her head and hid it in his chest, and she was even more glad at the moment, fortunately it was night, otherwise it would have been met during the day, but how could it be.
A figure walked out from behind the shade of the tree, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there seemed to be a cloud of light and shadow under his eyes.
"Third prince, it's so late, ...... are you" Mu Changqing walked towards him quickly, but her eyes were staring at the person in his arms, and at this time her arms were wrapped around his neck, and her posture was ambiguous.
"Ruohan's foot is sprained, I'll send her back." Xu Jinghao replied lightly.
Su Ruohan, who was hiding in his arms, raised his eyes slightly, maybe he was wrong, there was a trace of sadness and indignation in Mu Changqing's eyes, he was angry, why.
"It's not good, after all, you're the prince, or I'll come."
Mu Changqing said and reached out to hug the person in his arms, but the other party's hand tightened slightly, and his eyes were very sure.
"The young owner of the village should go back and rest early, such a trivial matter, it is better for His Royal Highness to come in person." As soon as Xu Jinghao's words fell, he turned around and walked directly towards the Dream Pavilion.
Mu Changqing looked at his departing figure, the person in his arms still did not struggle at all, he did not have a trace of expression, he was motionless like a stone pillar, and the coldness under his eyes was dyed with deep eyes.
The moonlight casts through the shadows of the trees on the ground, and the ground pours a lingering glow.
Phantom Pavilion.
Xu Jinghao carried her all the way back to Youmeng Pavilion, but Bilian, who stepped forward to open the door, looked surprised, and looked worried when she saw the third prince coming back with her.
"What's wrong with Miss Su?"
Su Ruohan smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing, it's just that my foot is twisted." ”
He laid her down softly on the bed, and when he met his deep, deep eyes, he suddenly smiled and said, "You're still like this, stubborn." He gently brushed the broken hair from her forehead with a tender expression.
Then he bent down and took off her shoes, only to see that her ankle bone was swollen.
Su Ruohan wanted to retract her foot, but was grabbed by his hand and couldn't move.
"It's good to let Bilian help me apply the medicine, and I don't have to worry about the third prince."
He didn't reply to her, but sometimes gently, sometimes hard, gently rubbed her ankle bone, and his voice was calm: "If you don't rub this foot open, you won't be able to get off the ground tomorrow, so don't be reckless." ”
"Bilian, I need some medicinal wine."
Bilian heard the instructions of the third prince, and hurriedly went down to get the medicine and wine.
"Here's for you."
Su Ruohan looked at the token in his hand, there was still a rare temperature in his palm on it, and the word "Jin" was written on it, this was his token, and he never left it.
"I don't need to." Su Ruohan subconsciously wanted to go back.
"You'll be able to use it, trust me, take it."
Su Ruohan accepted the token inexplicably and said softly, "Thank you." ”
At this time, Bilian came back and said, "Miss Su." ”
Xu Jinghao took the contents of Bilian's hand, and then concentrated on treating the injury on her foot.
"Shhhh
He lowered his head and moved softly, his eyes drooped slightly, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, which was very charming.
In the end, I don't know if I was too tired today or what, my eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, and I finally fell asleep without knowing anything.
Half-asleep, I vaguely heard someone whispering a few words.
"Ruohan, I'll go first."
She curled up on the bed, found a comfortable position, and fell into a deep sleep.
In the end, His Royal Highness the King of Jin turned around and left, Bilian slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the sleeping person on the bed, but sighed, they all said that the bystanders were clear, and the authorities were confused, but Bilian did see it clearly, and His Royal Highness the Three Princes liked Su Ruohan.
Zhengqing held a bottle of good gold sore medicine in his hand, standing at Mu Changqing's door, neither entering, not entering, and was hesitating, when he suddenly heard the sound of something breaking in the house, and before he had time to think about it, he saw the wine jar in the house, and Mu Changqing was already drunk.
"Senior Brother Mu, what's wrong with you? Drink so much alcohol. Zhengqing stepped forward with some doubts and snatched the wine jar from his hand.
"Give it back to me." Mu Changqing roared at him like a wounded beast.
"For no reason, what are you doing with so much wine, you are drunk." Zhengqing immediately took the wine jar away from him.
Yes, he was drunk, he saw Xu Jinghao hugging her, she was held in his arms, this heart was stuck in his chest, it hurt sullenly, he couldn't do anything, he could only watch Su Ruohan being taken away by His Royal Highness King Jin, and at that moment his heart seemed to be torn apart.
"Senior Brother Mu, I'll help you go to rest." Zhengqing couldn't help but pull him towards the bed.
"Why don't you come with me? Why? Why do you always avoid me, am I just annoying you like that? You speak! Mu Changqing was very drunk and kept muttering.
Zhengqing couldn't hear who he was talking about? He didn't answer, he took off his robe and then his shoes.
"I like you so much, you know?"
Zhengqing's body was shocked, he was stunned in place, one hand was still pulling the shoe on one of his feet, and he looked surprised, and said: "Young Zhuang Master, you can see clearly, I am Zhengqing, your junior brother, how can you like me?" ”
