Chapter 22: Into the Night
If it weren't for the fact that the eldest brother rose to prominence in the army and gradually gained the appreciation of King Yanbei, his father re-entered his mother's main house, I am afraid that my mother would have become a resentful woman in the boudoir.
It is precisely because of this that Xue Wuniang will hold her breath, treat herself almost harshly, and force herself to learn all kinds of knowledge from her mother, just so that she can fight for her mother.
In the last days of her life, she watched her emaciated mother busy in front of her sickbed every day, taking care of herself gently, and trying to keep herself alive.
Even if she survives, she must marry into the Yanbei Palace, not be loved by the prince of Yanbei, and even become a widow and a lonely old man for a lifetime, but as long as she can make her mother happy, she is willing.
Recalling his life in his previous life, Rong Yunhe's eyes gradually closed......
——————————————————————————————————————————
Late at night, the goose-feather snow that had been falling all day finally stopped, and the snow stained the whole village a layer of pure white.
A waning moon hung in the air, and the moonlight reflected the thick snow on the ground, glowing with a cold white light.
In the silence of the village, there was darkness everywhere.
After a busy day, the villagers were already asleep, and the sound of dogs barking could be heard in the scattered houses, or the "squeak" of people returning late on the snow, and even the occasional "creaking" of snow falling from bare trees on the branches.
A tall black shadow didn't know when he stood in front of the Rong family's courtyard, silently.
He was draped in a thick sable velvet, and his hood covered his entire face, making it impossible to see his face or his expression.
He stood quietly in front of the courtyard gate of the Rong family, his eyes seemed to be fixed on the black lacquer gate, and he seemed to be looking at something in the courtyard through the gate.
I don't know how long it took to be so quiet, he sighed softly, lifted his breath and crossed the courtyard wall, his toes lightly touched the ground, and the figure quickly swept over the courtyard in front of him, without making any sound, nor did he alarm Tan Yingyuan, who was also from martial arts, and it was obvious that he was extraordinary.
His footsteps stopped in front of the innermost embroidery building, and then he jumped up to the second floor with all his might, standing in front of the moon cave window, looking into the room through the layer of Korean paper, his eyes were loving and gentle, and his body did not move.
After some time, he took out a warm and transparent white jade ring from his arms, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed it on the winged phoenix carved on the jade ring.
Then he went away as quietly as he had come.
As soon as the mysterious man in black left, Rong Yunhe, who was still asleep on the kang, suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, opened the gauze tent in a daze, looked outside, and muttered softly: "How do you feel that someone was watching me just now?" It's weird! ”
And Yun Ying, who had been guarding the outside, heard the sound of Rong Yunhe inside, and immediately got up vigilantly, put on a half-worn apricot-colored coarse cloth jacket, and walked to Rong Yunhe's bed with a small sheep's horn lamp, yawning and asking, "Miss, what's wrong?" But do you want to get up late? ”
Rong Yunhe took a look at the hourglass at the head of the bed through the dim and faint light in Yunying's hand, and saw that it was just the beginning of the child, so he stretched his waist, retracted into the quilt again, and replied vaguely: "It's okay, I always felt like there was someone outside the window just now, so I got up and took a look." ”
When Yun Ying heard this, she smiled and said, "Miss is having a nightmare." Where can anyone be outside the window? Not to mention that the people of Yanbei are simple, not to mention that the road is not forgotten, at least there are no chickens and dogs. Besides, Uncle Tan is so good, I heard Aunt Luo say that he is also extremely vigilant when he sleeps at night, and if someone comes, Uncle Tan will definitely be alarmed. ”
said so, but after all, the Rong family fled from the capital, and there were many dangers along the way at that time, and Yun Ying still remembers it.
On the way from the capital to Hexi Mansion, they experienced dangerous dangers, and their group encountered several waves of killer assassins.
If it weren't for Tan Yingyuan and Luo Cailei's superb skills, plus before leaving Beijing, the eldest lady spent a lot of money to hire a few prestigious dart teams and more than a dozen Jianghu masters to escort them, I am afraid that before they arrived in Yanbei, they would have died on the way to escape.
was cautious all the way, incognito and remodeled, and the eldest lady still disappeared halfway.
It wasn't until they entered the territory of Yanbei that those killer assassins were afraid of the prestige of the Yanbei Palace, so they did not dare to continue to make trouble in the territory of Yanbei, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking of the danger at the beginning, Yun Ying was worried that those people at the beginning would not give up and came over again, and her heart couldn't help but tremble twice, but she still had to continue to comfort her master.
She took two deep breaths and calmed down before she forced her composure and said, "But I'd better go over and take a look, lest there really be any problems." ”
Rong Yunhe slept in a daze, and he didn't hear the abnormality in Yun Ying's voice, but the feeling of someone staring at him just now was too strong, so he said: "Then you can go and take a look, if there is no one, I will rest assured." ”
ps: Guo Ba Guo Ba, yesterday it was broken again...... Originally, I didn't know why the knee of my left leg hurt a lot, and it hurt even more after sitting for a long time, plus I had a headache yesterday because I didn't sleep well, and I was hit hard in the afternoon......
It's been more than half a month since Ayu's Wenwen signed the contract, and I always thought that I would wait for a recommendation this week, but I didn't wait for two weeks, so I was very irritable, wondering if I was abandoned by the editor because of my bad grades......
Grumpy all afternoon, Du Mu was in the mood to code words, looking for friends and editors for comfort, and then he was entangled in the evening. After all, Ah Wei is also a very vulgar person, and she writes articles in order to achieve certain results, but if the editor does not recommend it, Ah Yu feels that she has not been recognized by the editor, and she can't let more readers see the text, you must know that it is really tiring to climb the list every day......
Coupled with the update owed last time and the addition of 1000 recommended votes, Grandma already owes the little angels three chapter updates...... There will be a double update to make up the previous chapter today, so there will be a second update around nine o'clock in the evening.
Rolling and selling cuteness, kneeling and begging the little angels not to abandon Ah Yu, ...... After all, Wenwen will be running naked next week, and if there is no support from the little angels, Ah Yu feels that she can go to hang the southeast branch first......
After so much rambling, don't dislike me~ Finally, the group has a ~O(∩_∩)O~
