**Hehe, Ming Xiao Wang Ye drank too much**

Zhirong snatched the wine jug from his hand: "Some things are not a matter of being one step earlier and one step later, you should cherish the people around you, as well as your sister." "I'm afraid this man is drunk.

King Ming smiled self-deprecatingly, looked at her very seriously, and said, "Yes, it can only be said that there is no fate." But even if it's not me, it can't be him, Yanhua is destined to make you sad! Did You Know? ”

"You're drunk, Yanhua isn't that kind of person." Zhirong shoved the flask to him. Yanhua won't, she firmly believes.

King Ming stared at her face tightly: "I have never been so awake tonight. Yanhua, hey, how could I not know that Wei Ting likes me? How could I not know that you have no intention of me? How could I not know that I would not be able to choose the path I would take? I really wish I was always confused. But if my mother is so sad all the time, my father is disappointed, and my mother has no hope and no reason to live. ”

Zhirong looked at his bright face in the moonlight in surprise, he knew everything? It turned out that he had long known Wei Ting's thoughts, and he also knew his thoughts. It's just that he doesn't want to accept the facts, so he lied to himself again and again until he couldn't lie anymore.

"Since you know your sister's intentions, why are you still pretending to be stupid, do you know how sad your sister is?" Zhirong felt distressed when she thought of Wei Ting's melancholy eyes.

"If I am interested in her, then I will say it to her. But I only regard her as my best friend, my dearest sister. Zhirong, maybe you don't believe it, I liked you the first time I saw you. But you don't have me in your eyes, I thought you would change when you entered the palace and often met me, but there was still no me. ”

King Ming suddenly approached, almost sticking to Zhirong's face, the mellow smell of wine came to his face, and he heard his painful voice say: "I wish I wasn't a prince, I hope you like me." Don't like that bastard Yanhua, he'll make you sad sooner or later. Back then, he made Xi'er sad and gave him his life! I don't want you to be next. ”

"Who is Xi'er?" Zhirong moved back. She pretended to be calm, but her heart was about to pop out. Yan Hua had never told her about this person. At Yanhua's age, it was not surprising that he had a woman he liked before, but why didn't he tell himself?

King Ming closed his eyes with a sad face: "She was originally an orphan, but she was later adopted as a righteous daughter by General Fuyuan." He also often enters the palace. At that time, I was still relatively close to Yanhua, and the three of us always played together, and I was not crowned king at that time. She called me the prince of the crying nose, and called Brother Yan Huahua. ”

He kept his eyes closed, as if reminiscing about the good old days when he was thirteen or fourteen years old. The three children often play together. One will cry at every turn, and the other has been heroic since childhood.

"She has grown up with boys since she was a child, practicing martial arts, practicing swords, and going to battle, not like a girl. I often say that she can't get married, and she often says that a timid prince like me is unproductive. also said that if he couldn't get married, he would marry Brother Hua. ”

Zhirong's heart trembled when she heard this, "What about later?" "How could that lively and bright girl die?

King Ming opened his eyes, his eyes were already full of tears at this time, and he took another sip of wine: "Later, when we grew older, I regarded her as my dearest sister at that time." I asked Yanhua to marry her if she liked, don't let her go through so many ups and downs outside, and don't let her get hurt. Yanhua agreed. But he didn't! ”

"Are they married?"

King Ming shook his head with a sigh; "The mother of the Yan family did not allow it, and Yan Hua listened to his mother's words the most. I still remember that day Xi'er sadly said to me, 'Silly brother, I can't marry Brother Hua', I comforted her and said to go to the Yan family's mother to reason. But on that day, his father ordered Yanhua to lead the troops to fight, and Xi'er followed, but when he came back, there was only a cold corpse. ”

Zhirong asked suspiciously, "How come?" "Why did Yanhua agree to Xi'er to join the army, and why didn't she protect her? That's not his style.

"Hmph, how could it not?" King Ming snorted coldly: "What can't Yan Hua do with the Yan family?" Xi'er has to go, and he can't stop the past. But that night, they were resting in the barracks but encountered more than a dozen assassins, all of whom were first-class masters, and Xi'er blocked a fatal sword for Yanhua, and he only took a breath at that time. ”

It turns out that the woman named Xi'er died to save Yanhua. No wonder Yanhua hasn't married for so many years, presumably because of his pity. However, the deceased is gone, and can only be remembered in my heart. Yan Hua promised her that he would be with her for the rest of his life. She will not doubt Yanhua's sincerity because she cherishes her son.

After many years, King Ming was sad. Yan Hua is not sad and guilty, Zhirong feels even more sorry for Yan Hua. What a lonely person he was, and how many lonely and cold years he had spent. Xi'er may have been a thorn in his heart, making him breathless for many nights.

"Xi'er died for the sake of his beloved. Presumably joyful, too. Zhirong said softly, thinking that if he was to change himself, he would also be willing to block that sword for Yan Hua.

"The place where Yan Hua fought at that time was just a small city, and there were no masters among the defenders of the city, where did they come from so many masters to assassinate Yan Hua. And the places where they stabbed Yan Hua did not hurt their lives, but the angle of the sword in the pity was extremely tricky and deadly. This is not an assassination of Yanhua, but a target for Xi'er. ”

King Ming took a deep breath: "Over the years, I have pretended to be confused. Pretended that nothing had happened, and moved around as little as possible with Yanhua. We don't even talk about Xi'er. But there are some things that you can't be confused about, and you appear without warning. I don't want you to follow in her footsteps. Yanhua has no ability to protect you at all. Sooner or later, you'll have phosphorus injuries all over your body. ”

Yan Hua knew very well how she was Zhirong, she knew that King Ming had pain and resentment, but Yan Hua was also licking his wounds all these years, and in the shadow of the bright woman he was living, he would always think of the woman's smile and the face before she died. How cruel it is to see your loved one die.

"Why can't you think of those Yanhua you are talking about? I think he must have found an enemy over the years and avenged his son. Zhirong refuted King Ming.

King Ming sneered, with an indescribable sense of irony. "Who do you think did it? The Murong family? The Kim family? Or is it another family? If these people were, I would have prevented them from living. Yan Hua is so smart and wise, how can he not know that these people are not enemies, he is still looking for them, and it seems to me that it is just in vain. ”

Zhirong looked at him suspiciously for a long time, what do you mean by this? To be honest, at the beginning, the first thing she thought of was Murong Qian or Jin Zixuan, or the prince's other henchmen. But King Ming obviously didn't think so.

Thinking about it carefully, with Yanhua's character, if it was really done by those people, even if they tried their best and their lives, they would take revenge. But he and Jin Zixuan have been entangled and fought for so many years, but he didn't really move Jin Zixuan's life, either he didn't have that ability, or he didn't want to.

And he definitely has that ability and intelligence. Only the second possibility remains.

But Zhirong promised Yan Hua that she would believe him at any time, so neither Xi'er's matter nor King Ming's analysis would shake her heart.

Since we trust each other, we must keep our promises, and if we have already given up our hearts, we cannot doubt them at will. Otherwise, she wouldn't be worthy of saying that she loves Yanhua. What Yan Hua didn't mention must have his troubles, and one day he will tell himself. Why bother?

"What the hell do you want to do to Sister Wei?" Zhirong didn't want to say more about Xi'er, so she changed the topic. Thinking of Wei Ting's unruly appearance all day long, it should be time to ask Li You's thoughts.

Li You put down the wine jar, pondered for a long time and was silent, only sighed. The night is quiet. The summer wind rustled the leaves, and the two sat side by side on the roof, the moon shining white behind them.

"She's the only person I'm really sorry for."

Zhirong was silent and acquiesced to his words. Li You was too cruel to Wei Ting, he obviously liked it but just pretended not to know anything. She looked at the man who had suddenly grown up overnight, and the immaturity on his round face receded, looking so desolate. I couldn't help but sigh: he was also a poor man.

Why did that sunny man become like this? The person who didn't have a serious word all day and smiled all day turned out to have so much bitterness in his heart. He used his expression and confusion to hide, and finally he couldn't hide it.

The two were silent for a long time, and King Ming spoke again: "If Yanhua loses you, what should you do?" He fixed his gaze on Zhirong. Eyes full of inquiries and pity.

Faced with such a look, Zhirong didn't dodge, and didn't think too much, "The kind of thing you said won't happen." Zhirong smiled: "The Yan family needs a woman with a good status, so I will try my best to rise to a high position in the Shanggong Bureau and stand side by side with him." And I'm sure Yanhua will be able to handle everything properly. ”

"Are you so sure? He didn't protect his son back then! Li You was already slightly angry at this time.

"Li You, you forgot, I'm not a cherished child, and he is not the weak-crowned boy he was back then." This is the first time Zhirong has called Li You's name.

Li You was stunned for a moment, his eyes shining with excitement, and then dimmed. How he wished she had been called that name for so long. And yet it was in such a place and on such an occasion.

"Yanhua is so unfortunate and lucky, there was a pity in the past, and now there is you." Li You stood up and stretched: "It's not early." You will embroider tomorrow and tread the snow to find plums. I'll send you back. As he spoke, he picked up Zhirong.

I thought that Li You was going to take her away, but I heard the man stubbornly ask again: "If you really bear you, how will you be?" ”

"If he reneges on his promises and oaths, then I will not expect anything from him, and I will never see him again in this life!" Zhirong is not casually talking about the king of inventions, but his inner thoughts.

King Ming was stunned and said, "Why be so cruel to yourself. The voice was light and fluttering, and the eyes were full of distress.

The two were about to leave when they heard the door of the palace open. I saw an old woman in a brown palace dress walking in with a basket.

The two had to lie on the roof, not daring to make a sound.

The old woman looked around, and when she was sure that there was no one in the courtyard, she pushed open the door, and the room was pitch black, and her figure soon disappeared into the darkness.

"This palace was built by my father when I was a child, and I overheard my mother say that it was built for Xia Yunsheng. However, Xia Shang Palace has been missing for so many years, and this palace has been empty, and there has been no one for a long time. King Ming muttered to himself in confusion.

And Zhirong's head thumped, Master's palace?

It's strange that no one has lived there for so many years, and now someone suddenly appears. What's more, she knew that the master not only returned to the capital, but was also locked up in the palace.

Thinking about it this way, it is not impossible for Master to be locked up here. She was overjoyed. Finally found some clues.

"Lord, do you recognize the old woman?"

Li You frowned, she still called herself the prince again. "Look at that figure like the old lady next to the Queen Mother, she never came out of the Buddha Hall. It's weird, why did you come here alone tonight. ”

Yes, alone, and if it is transparent, it does not have to be alone. So what is her relationship with Master, and will it cause harm to Master?

"I'd like to go in and have a look." Zhirong looked at Li You longingly, she didn't know martial arts, and Li You's martial arts were strong, whether it was light skills, it was easy to run away if there was anything.

At the same time, he also despises himself fiercely, and still asks for people at critical moments.

Li You didn't even want to show his white teeth, and he looked cynical again: "I want to be together, I want to see what secrets are in this palace." Walk! With that, he flew down the eaves with Zhirong.

The two of them listened outside the door first, but there was no movement inside. Li You simply opened the door gently, and the two slipped in.

The room was dark, but fortunately, there was a little moonlight that was not invisible, and Li You also took out a small night pearl from his arms and laughed quietly: "I often sneak out at night, so I carry this convenience with me." ”

Zhirong couldn't cry or laugh a little, but with this bead, the room instantly brightened. Both of them looked at each other in surprise.

The house was not as dusty as they thought, but spotless. Not only that, the living furnishings in the room are dazzling, and the big golden embroidery screen is embroidered with exquisite spring outing pictures......

Could it be that there are still people in the palace of the Shen family who have embroidery treasures?

But now is not the time to think about this, Li You looked at it, his eyes fixed on a landscape painting, he moved the painting away, and saw a small hidden pavilion on the wall with the lid opened, and there was a knob inside.

He glanced at Zhirong, the other party nodded, he twisted the knob with his hand, and saw a door open on the wall next to the embroidery screen. It turns out that there is a secret room in this room.

The two walked in lightly and found that the secret room was very large, and there were several turns, but fortunately there was no hidden weapon, otherwise I really don't know if I would have been killed.

"Yunshang, why are you bothering?" An old female voice came, and Zhirong and the two quickly stopped breathing.

Yunshang? Xia Yunshang? Master? (To be continued.) )
