Cheng Zheng and his subordinates hurried away with injuries and finally returned to Beijing as scheduled. When approaching the capital, Cheng Zheng got down from the carriage: "Now that I am about to enter Beijing, it is not proper for the minister and the princess to ride in the same car, so Rong Chen will get off first." ”

Cheng Zheng rode on the horse, although the wound on his right hand had healed, but the scar was eye-catching.

According to the arrangement, the group will first come to the palace on the outskirts of Beijing, and rest here for a day to tidy up. The palace people are dressed up and taught etiquette, just waiting for the official entry into the palace tomorrow.

On the second day, Yao Luo led the Imperial Forest Army to meet him at the gate of the city. Yao Luo stood under the city gate in military attache costume with his hands in his hands, full of masculinity. Cheng Zheng and his entourage arrived at the city gate, Yao Luo and the Imperial Forest Army who were waiting behind him saluted: "Yao Luo, the commander of the Weichen Imperial Forest Army, was ordered to welcome the princess back to the palace. ”

Yishan raised the curtain from the carriage and was a little frightened when she saw the battle in front of her, but she quickly adjusted it and said softly: "My lord, I am exempt." "It seems that the rules of the palace that Cheng Zheng talked about along the way were not in vain.

Yao Luo approached and said, "Please get out of the car and move the sedan chair." The palace maid next to the sedan chair stepped forward to help Yishan get out of the car, a gorgeous dress was bright, but still surprised by the gorgeously decorated eight-lift sedan chair in front of her, the red silk embroidered with gold thread is full of flowers, extremely luxurious, the golden tassels swing in the wind at the four corners, and the four sides are decorated with pearl agate, shining. She really wanted to say to Cheng Zheng at the moment that she had never seen such a gorgeous sedan chair, and the sedan chair that their county order's daughter sat on when she got married a few years ago had already made her sigh, and the eight sedan chairs in front of her were more than 100 times more gorgeous than back then.

The sedan chair man pressed the sedan chair, the palace maid helped Yishan into the sedan chair, Yao Luo and Cheng Zheng marched in front, the sedan chair was in the center, and then the palace people and the royal forest army were mighty and magnificent.

Before entering the palace gate, Cheng Zheng looked up and saw a dressed person standing on the city tower looking at him from a distance, and Cheng Zheng smiled back lightly.

When I saw the white yarn on Cheng Zheng's hand, I couldn't help but feel a palpitation in my heart, what's wrong with your hand, is it injured, Yan zhòng? Are you exhausted all night, or why are you so emaciated? I wanted to fly to Cheng Zheng's side immediately, but today to welcome my sister into the palace, such a solemn and solemn occasion, even though her relationship with Cheng Zheng is well known, she has to scruple one or two. As soon as he got down from the city tower and went to the Heshun Palace, the emperor and the ministers were already waiting there.

Entering from Hexuanmen, the road is smooth. After passing the Heshun Gate, I saw a red carpet stretching into the Heshun Palace. The palace people and the Imperial Forest Army on both sides stood silently and solemnly. Cheng Zheng dismounted, the palace people got off the sedan chair, Cheng Zheng and Yishan stepped on the Luo red soft carpet under the guidance of Ming An, the chief of the inner chamberlain, and walked towards the Heshun Palace.

The ministers in the palace stood silently on both sides, holding their breath, so not solemn, the emperor sat on the richly decorated golden dragon chair in the palace, calm and dignified, not angry and self-assured. In front of a dress embroidered with brocade, he stood on the side of the dragon chair with a high bun and golden steps. As soon as he entered the hall, everyone in the hall was surprised, this face was exactly the same as the princess of Yilin, it was really a twin, it was so similar.

"Wechen Cheng Zheng was ordered to take the princess back, thanks to the emperor's blessing, Wechen was fortunate not to be dishonored."

"Yishan sees my father, the emperor's sister." Yishan was obviously not used to such a big occasion, so she took a deep breath to calm herself, bowed carefully, and bowed cautiously.

The emperor got up and strode down, and as soon as he followed the emperor down from the palace, the emperor personally helped Yishan up and said excitedly, "My son is suffering outside." Father can be regarded as looking forward to you back. ”

"Thank you, father, the child is fine outside, father doesn't have to worry." This middle-aged man in a bright yellow dragon robe, majestic and loving, is my father? This richly dressed, hairpin with a golden hairpin, and the same face as mine is my sister.

The emperor was overjoyed, and couldn't stop nodding, "Okay, good, Cheng Zheng took the princess back safely this time, and made a great contribution, and I have my own reward." ”

"Your Majesty." Cheng Zheng bowed his head and got up.

Your hand? How did you get hurt? Is it strict? Okay? I wanted to ask him, but I couldn't.

"Sister." Yilin stepped forward and grabbed Yishan's hand, "My sister finally came back safely." ”

"Sister." Yishan whispered, looking very reserved.

Yilin held her hand and soothed, "My sister is suffering outside, but my father and I are so worried." ”

The emperor instructed in a loving tone, "You two sisters are so similar, you will definitely get along in the future, and you will have to take more care of your sister in the future." ”

Yilin nodded, "Erchen knows." ”

"Congratulations to the emperor, the family is reunited, and we can enjoy a happy family together!" The ministers bowed down from the mountain.

"All the love is exempt. Hahaha, my son is finally back, and my father is very happy. Whatever Yishan wants, just ask, and my father will satisfy you to comfort my son's suffering for many years outside. ”

Everyone thought that this sentence should be followed by Yishan thanked the emperor and said that he didn't need anything if he could return to his father, but Yishan admitted it, "Really? Whatever the child wants, will the father satisfy the child? ”

"You don't joke." The emperor patted Yishan's shoulder, put on a serious look, and waited for Yishan to speak.

"I want Cheng Zheng, I want Cheng Zheng to be my husband."

It was night, and the rain was pouring down. Ichilin blasted away all the subordinates and locked himself in the room alone. At the gate of Qinghe Palace, Cheng Zheng stood silently, and the personal palace maid Qingzhu had been passed many times inside and out, but Yilin was still reluctant to come out, and Cheng Zheng was unwilling to leave. The umbrella that Qingzhu handed to Cheng Zheng was thrown away by him, "When you sue Sù, I won't see her, and I won't leave." ”

Qingzhu once again risked being scolded to knock on the door of the room, "Princess, why don't you open the door and let the slave and maid send some food in, you don't eat or drink, how can your body stand it." ”

Yilin finally stopped crying hysterically, and asked calmly, "Cheng Zhenghe, is he still outside?" ”

"Yes, General Cheng said, you must wait until the princess comes out."

Yilin smiled bitterly and said to himself, "What are you waiting to do outside." Wait to see how sad I am, how sad I am, and in what capacity do you come to see me now? ”

As soon as I wiped my tears and walked out, I will see you sooner or later, why bother letting you be exposed to the wind and rain outside. Qingzhu saw that Yilin was finally willing to open the door, overjoyed, Yilin ignored Qingzhu, and walked straight to the palace gate, Qingzhu hurriedly followed up to hold an umbrella for Yilin, Yilin took the umbrella, and ordered Qingzhu to retreat.

The gate of Qinghe Palace slowly opened, Cheng Zheng raised his head, and as soon as he came, you were finally willing to come to see me.

The sad face, soaked in rain, like a child who has made a mistake, makes people can't help but sympathize. The white gauze on Cheng Zheng's right hand came into view, I actually forgot that you have a wound on your hand, and I am still hiding in it to be sad, causing you to be drenched in the rain for so long. I secretly blame myself, what's the use of being distressed, you will never be able to feel distressed in the future. As soon as he walked over with an umbrella, the handle of the umbrella was placed in the center, covering two people at the same time. In the future, the one who rides the same umbrella as you will never be me again.

"Your hand, what's wrong?" As soon as he spoke. I finally had the opportunity to ask you, from the first time I saw you today, I was eager to fly to him and ask him clearly, but now I have the opportunity to speak.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it would be like this." Cheng Zheng's voice was low and hoarse, containing pain.

"It's not your fault. It was I who asked you to pick up my sister, and it was me who caused this situation, after three years of separation, you finally have a reason to come back from the border gate, but I have no reason to stay with you. "It's still the same one, the one who always takes the responsibility on himself, and he has been like this since he was a child, and he will always push the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to Cheng Zheng.

"Yilin, I like you, and only you." And then

In the past, when I heard such words, I would inevitably jump up happily, wrap my arms around Cheng Zheng's neck, and show off my happiness without shying away from it. "Why did your hand hurt, Yan zhòng?" As soon as I took Cheng Zheng's hand, maybe this is the last time, after tonight, what reason do I have to hold your hand again.

"As soon as we come, let's go to the emperor, everyone in the capital knows that our childhood sweethearts have loved each other since childhood, the emperor loves you so much, how can I bear to make you sad, he will definitely fulfill us."

Yilin took a deep breath: "No need. ”

"Why? We said okay, when I come back, we will go and ask the emperor for marriage. Cheng Zheng stubbornly insisted.

"Marriage, but the bride is no longer me."

"It's you, you are the only bride in my heart, and my bride can only be you." Cheng Zheng couldn't be more serious.

"Don't be stupid anymore," looking at Cheng Zheng's stubbornness, he couldn't bear it.

"The emperor did not immediately agree to Yishan's request today, which means that he is leaving room for you and me to turn around, and we will go to ask the emperor, there must be a chance to turn around." Cheng Zheng stared at Yilin's eyes, trying to find a glimmer of approval.

But Yilin decisively refused: "My father didn't agree explicitly, but my father also said it, you don't have any jokes, right?" Between us, there is no more possibility. ”

"When it comes, don't be discouraged, as long as you and I work together,"

Cheng Zheng stretched out his hand to Yilin but was angrily thrown away by her, "She's my sister!" It's my sister who has been separated from me for seventeen years! I just saw my relatives when I was out of exile, and you want me, my own sister, and the first gift to my sister is to snatch her Langjun? ”

"I'm not her husband! I have no personal feelings for her. The only person who can call me a husband in this life is you! ”

As soon as he closed his eyes, tears fell: "Ah Zheng, do you know, hearing you say this, I am really moved, and I have no regrets." ”

Cheng Zheng shook his head: "I don't want you to be moved, I just want you not to give up." ”

The grief could not be hidden: "How do you want me to refuse, how to refuse." If it wasn't Yishan who was taken away back then, then I was a wanderer with no relatives. My sister has suffered for me for many years, how can I bear to hurt my sister. ”

"If you want to compensate her, what way can't you be like this, do you think she will really be happy if she follows me? When it comes, you can't let go, I said I would protect you for the rest of your life, how can you say give up first? ”

"Take good care of my sister on my behalf, promise me that it's okay, she is my own sister, she has just entered the palace, she has just received the love of her relatives, we can't make her sad."

Cheng Zheng said decisively, "No." ”

"I want her to know about this, how do you let her deal with herself, how do you let her accept, how do you let her survive? Have you ever thought about her? Promise me, okay? Just when I beg you, okay, don't talk about you and me anymore, after tonight, you can love her as me. ”

"I can't do it."

"You can do it! There's nothing you can't do! Are you not afraid of thousands of iron horses in Xichi, not afraid of swords, mountains and fires, and afraid of marrying a woman? ”

"I'm not afraid to marry a woman, I'm only afraid that the person I marry is not you."

Yi Lin Gu couldn't be moved: "Then you can take it as me, anyway, we have exactly the same face!" ”

Cheng Zheng smiled bitterly: "Do it?" Why should we be so self-deceived! ”

As soon as his heart ached and the atmosphere was in the air, he asked, "Do you want me to kneel down and beg you!" ”

The windshield wipers are falling, shedding tears for all the sad people in the world, washing away the dust of all things, and returning to a clean and fresh world. They looked at each other, their eyes were firm, and they didn't flinch in the slightest, as if they were going to see through each other. Cheng Zheng couldn't find a trace of wavering in his eyes.

Cheng Zheng finally asked, "Is what you said true?" Are you really going to let me marry her? ”

"Yes!" Firm answer, almost shouted out at the beginning, I don't need to use all my strength, how can I have the courage to say this word.

"Okay, okay," Cheng Zheng nodded: "I promise you." I'll marry her! ”

Tears, why are you so angry, finally it still flowed, it was in vain to endure it for so long, and it was out of control, and I couldn't stop it. I got what I wanted, but I didn't feel relieved at all. Cheng Zheng, I heard with my own ears that you said to marry her, what about me, what should I do, Cheng Zheng, you are not by my side, what should I do. Yilin turned his head and wiped his tears, forcibly suppressing the tearing heartache, "Don't let her know about your and my past." In the near future, my father will give marriage, and I believe that others will not dare to say anything behind their backs. ”

"Okay." One word, how difficult it is for Cheng Zheng to spit it out, I'm afraid only he knows.

"You, go back, if you don't leave the palace gate again, the gate will be closed."

"Okay." Cheng Zheng replied, still standing still and had no intention of leaving. As soon as he returned to the palace with an umbrella. When the door of Qinghe Palace was closed again, Yilin lost his umbrella, squatted down against the palace gate and cried. Now, I can finally cry uncontrollably. You're not by my side, who am I strong for? I've known you for eighteen years, but I can't get along with her for a month! Hehe, how ridiculous. I used to think that I was the happiest person in the world, what is happiness, is it a collection of thousands of favors? Is it the power of life and death? But after all, I can't resist a you, losing you, I am so painful and heartbroken, it turns out that I have always felt happy because of you by my side. In the future, how am I going to adapt to life without you? You have been in prison for three years, and I have at least one thought, at least one belief to support me, and when you come back, you will marry me. But now, you have returned, and we are in the same imperial city, but farther away than when you were outside the fortress. Close to the end of the world, seeing each other but not saying a word, is it the biggest torture. Ah Zheng, what should I do? I can't bear you, what should I do?
