Chapter 18, the heart is like a knife

With his father's permission, Han Derang slowly returned to his room in the attic. After closing the door, Han Derang squatted behind the door in frustration. It is said that the man does not flick when he has tears, but he has not reached the sad place, and now his heart is like a knife. In the past, no matter how he thought, he couldn't imagine that the woman he had always wanted was now going to marry the emperor as a concubine.

As night fell, he slowly turned his head to look out the window, a glimmer of light shining through the familiar window. It's just a pity that I am afraid that this ray of light will never be seen again in the future, and even if I see it, it will no longer belong to him.

He sat quietly in front of the piano, gently stroked the strings, and began to play her favorite song "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix". I'm afraid this will be the last time he'll play this piece.

Since Yan'er returned to the room, she has been lying on the bed and crying silently. No matter how Suiyu persuaded him, he refused to get up.

Suddenly, there was a sound of a piano outside the window.

It's him! It's De who lets his brother play the piano! Yan'er immediately got up and stumbled to the window. From the opposite window, he could be seen frowning and playing the piano intently. On that day, it was this beautiful sound of the piano that made Yan'er fall in love with him. And now, is he also going to use the sound of the harp to break with her? Otherwise, why is it the same night and the same person, but there is no half of tenderness and sweetness in this piano sound, but it is full of sadness? Yan'er's heart was broken when she heard this. He didn't know that she had gone through a thousand years of time, found him, and now she was about to be separated from him, and her heart was bitter. Why does fate always play such a trick on her?

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly.

He got up slowly, walked to the window, and saw that Yan'er on the other side had already stopped crying.

The two people looked at each other from afar through the night, but it seemed that there was an endless galaxy in between. There are no words for each other, only a thousand tears.

He didn't blame her at all. In these days of getting along, what kind of heart is she, and how can he not know? If she had the heart to cling to the powerful, she would not have chosen him that day. Although his father is also an official in Liao, the Han family is Han in the final analysis. In this way, no matter how high the official position is, after all, it is not as powerful as the Khitans. With her beautiful appearance and intelligent qualifications, she will definitely deserve a better person. She wasn't wrong, the only thing that was wrong was that she shouldn't have fallen in love with him too early, otherwise she wouldn't be so miserable now.

In fact, for a moment, he wanted to elope with her regardless of a single thing, no matter where he went, as long as he left here and left Liao, even if he returned to his hometown of Da Song.

But if this is the case, it will undoubtedly bring endless disasters to both families. After the Xiao family has been a famous family for generations, how can it be ruined by them? And his father, now that he is old, he definitely can't bear such a heavy blow. Most importantly, she was such a wonderful woman, how could he bear to let her follow him everywhere and be displaced?

If you can't have it anymore, let it go. He gave her a deep look, then gently closed the window.

Seeing that the light in the opposite window went out, Yan'er's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. It seems that Derang's brother is really dead set on her. Did he want her to forget him? No, she can't do it, she's going to find Brother Derang.

"Miss, where are you going?" Suiyu then chased after him.

Yan'er stumbled all the way down the small attic, ran out of the Xiao Mansion, and came to the gate of the Han Mansion. But the gate of Hanfu has long been locked.

couldn't care so much, in order to see Derang's brother, she let it go. She stretched out her originally delicate hand and slammed on the door of the Han family.

"Open the door! Open the door! I want to see Brother Derang! ”

"Miss Xiao, please go back, my son-in-law won't see you!" The housekeeper of the Han Mansion got Han Kuangsi's orders, so he would not open the door for Yan'er.

"Butler, please, let me meet Brother Derang!" Yan'er pleaded again.

"It's not that I won't let you see it, but now that you have a special identity, if you have anything to do with the second young master of my family, then dozens of lives in our Han family will not survive!" The housekeeper was also out of helplessness, and persuaded Yan'er through the door.

But Yan'er's stubborn temperament, how can she listen to it at this time.

"Miss, let's go back! If the lord and lady find out after a while, I'm afraid they will be punished again! Sui Yu dissuaded on the side.

"I already know!" Xiao Siwen and Lu Bugu hurriedly rushed over after receiving a report from the people in the mansion.

Hearing Xiao Siwen's voice, Yan'er hurriedly stopped crying and looked at Xiao Siwen who came over.

"Father, you beg the emperor for Yan'er, Yan'er doesn't want to enter the palace as a concubine, Yan'er only wants to marry Brother Derang in this life. You go and beg the emperor, okay? ”

"Nonsense! The emperor's decree has been issued, how can it be withdrawn? Lu Bugu reprimanded.

In fact, seeing Yan'er so sad, how could Xiao Siwen's heart not be sad? Yan'er really likes the Han family, and the kid likes it very much. But now that the decree has been issued, no one can disobey the emperor's will!

"Father, are you really going to force your daughter to death?" Yan'er turned her heart sideways, looked straight at Xiao Siwen and said.

"Daughter, it's come to this, don't be stubborn!" Xiao Siwen shook his head helplessly and said.

"If you can't marry Brother Derang in this life, you can only wait for the next life!" Yan'er looked back at the gate of the Han family and said with a dead heart.

Then, Yan'er did something that no one expected, she took the pearl hairpin from her head that day Han Derang gave her, and stabbed her in the abdomen.

The pain caused her to lose consciousness very quickly. In a daze, she seemed to see a group of people in a mess, and Derang's brother rushed out of the Han Mansion and hugged her tightly.

The news of the serious injury of the third lady of Xiao Fufu soon spread to the palace.

"What? She's hurt? Yeluxian was surprised.

"Back to the emperor, the rumors outside say so." The eunuch on the side replied resignedly.

"How did you get hurt?" Ye Luxian continued to ask.

The eunuch on the side looked nervous and didn't dare to continue.

"How the hell did you get hurt?" Yeluxian asked again with a cold face.

"Back to the emperor, it is rumored that it is for Han Derang, the second son of the Han family, and I heard that they have a marriage contract. Now that His Majesty has decreed that she be accepted as a concubine, I am afraid that this Yan'er girl will not be able to accept such a reality for a while, so she has come up with a way to commit suicide. Only then did the eunuch dare to tell him the truth.

This answer shocked Yeluxian. He only knew that she was beautiful and talented, but he never thought that she was still a fierce woman with a true temperament! However, this matter made him, the emperor, a little embarrassed, but if he really wanted to punish her, he was a little reluctant in his heart after all, after all, he never liked other women as much as he liked her.

"How's she doing now?" In the end, Yeluxian is more concerned about her injuries than accountability.

"Lord Xiao has invited the best imperial doctor in the palace to treat Miss Yan'er's injuries, and I don't have to worry about my life."
