"Xiaoyu, you are really not righteous enough, just leave......

Seeing Ye Xiaoyu's absent-minded look, Ling Yu tried to change the topic.

"Does Qianqian know who you are now?"

Ye Xiaoyu asked.

"Yes. She knew about it four years ago. ”

Ling Yu looked at Ye Xiaoyu with a smile.

In fact, everyone has already let go, and he doesn't know what she is still clinging to.

"Oh, yes. I almost forgot, where was that cake to be made? ”

Ye Xiaoyu suddenly remembered that she was summoned to the palace this time.

"Huh? Do you want to make a cake? There's no rush on this. ”

Seeing Ye Xiaoyu's panicked appearance, Ling Yu's eyes were full of smiles.

"One year I went to Rongzhou and happened to walk into a pastry shop, the shopkeeper was a young student, but the pastries in the shop made me feel familiar. So, this time, it can be regarded as a fluke...... I didn't expect it, it's really Xiaoyu, you ......"

Looking at Ye Xiaoyu, Ling Yu's eyes were gentle as if they were about to overflow.

"When, back then...... I opened the shop with another person. ”

Ye Xiaoyu lowered her head and unconsciously fiddled with the golden bottle cup placed in front of her with both hands.

Of course she remembered the events of that year, she was afraid that Ling Yu would find out that she was in Rongzhou, so she asked Wang Huaiqing to look at the pastry shop instead of her.

"That person is handsome and tall, but Xiaoyu's husband?"

Ling Yu asked again.

"Huh?! No, of course not. ”

Realizing that he was asking Wang Huaiqing, Ye Xiaoyu quickly denied it.

"That's right. That sounds a bit of a pity. ”

A look of regret appeared on Ling Yu's face.

"Regret what, no regret at all. Marriage is too troublesome, and I don't like it at all. ”

hurriedly hid the trace of sentimentality in his eyes, and Ye Xiaoyu replied with a big grin.

There are too many passers-by, and now she doesn't expect anyone to stay with her until she is old.

"I remember you said something similar when you were in Lujiazhuang, why did you still think like this after so long?"

Ling Yu said, picked up the white jade porcelain cup on the table, and gently took a sip to his lips.

"You're pretty much the same. You said the same thing to me back then, and now. You still say things to me. Such a reaction. ”

The corners of Ye Xiaoyu's mouth rose.

A king over ten thousand people.

The world has changed, and the vicissitudes of life. A playmate when he was young, he became the supreme king today. God's arrangement, is it a good intention or a prank?

Imperial Mausoleum in the Western Suburbs.

Zou Youheng tied the horse down the mountain. Alone along the path up the hill. It's the middle of the night. Although there are people watching the imperial mausoleum. But it should be more lax.

Fences and iron fences. Thorny thorns.

By the moonlight, Zou Youheng took a lot of effort to find a dog hole at the foot of the wall. Gritting his teeth, he crawled on the ground and climbed in.

Several generations of emperors of the Great Cause Kingdom are buried here. But a sunny tomb is not hard to find. Just like his people. Simple and neat, compared with other luxurious mausoleums of the Imperial Tomb, it is even a little out of place.

Because not long after the burial, there were still wine cups and food used for memorial services in front of the tomb. But the surroundings are already overgrown with weeds.

The inscription is blank except for the name, and nothing is left.

Standing in front of the tomb, Zou Youheng looked sad.

Countless thoughts surged up, and the picture of the day kept rolling in front of me.

"I'm a step slower, Ye Xiaoyu still came to Yuejing, and she also entered the palace."

Zou Youheng's tone was full of guilt.

"It's useless for me, you risked your life to save me, but I can't even do this little thing. Sunny, why did you save me in the first place? ”

The night breeze is cool, swaying through the pine needles in the cemetery, casting a strange afterimage in the moonlight.

"Zhou Ming, who came to the capital with me, died, and I watched him die in my arms, but Lin Zucheng, who stayed in Rongzhou, was nowhere to be found, and he couldn't even find the address. I watched my best friend die, but I didn't even have the ability to collect his body. People like me, why do you want to save me? ”

"You see, even if you save me now, even if I survive, it's still useless, I can't stop Ye Xiaoyu from coming to Yuejing, and I can't avenge you and Zhou Ming, and even now, I can't even figure out what happened in Rongzhou City......"

"Qinglang, you sue me, what the hell should I do now?"

Warm tears snaked down the corners of his eyes.

Zou Youheng always thought that it was a very shameful thing for a man to shed tears, but what he didn't expect was that he would cry like a fool in front of the tomb of a person who had only seen him a few times in the cemetery for half a day.

"This wine...... There's a lot of stamina......"

Ye Xiaoyu pillowed her head on her arm and said with blurred eyes.

The two chatted just now, and then drank some wine casually. The wine tasted mellow, and the entrance was silky, Ye Xiaoyu was just thirsty, so he accidentally drank two more sips, it was okay at first, who knew that the stamina of this wine was so big.

"This is the purple night grape from the Western Regions, and the stamina is a bit sufficient, but the taste is really good."

Ling Yu poured himself another small glass as he spoke.

"Congratulations on becoming a father......

Ye Xiaoyu said vaguely.

"What's there to congratulate you on?"

Ling Yu thought it was funny.

How many things in life can be controlled by yourself.

"You see, you have become the emperor of the great kingdom today, high above, sunny has become a colt, and, and I ...... Haha, I'm just a little pastry shop owner, and I haven't married yet...... Hahaha......"

Ye Xiaoyu said inarticulately, and slapped her hand on the table as she spoke.

"You're drunk."

Ling Yu looked at the person lying on the table, full of emotions.

The life scene of Lujiazhuang still seems to be yesterday, but in a blink of an eye, there are so many inconsistencies in the middle. Maybe the two of them were destined to go different paths from the beginning.

"I've always ...... Felt...... You're like a sun...... It's so dazzling...... Too dazzling...... Others don't ...... at all Can't get close to ...... It's dazzling......"

Ye Xiaoyu tilted her head sideways. The corners of the mouth are raised.

"The sun?"

Ling Yu was shocked.

It was the first time he had ever heard someone describe himself like that.

"I'm not the sun. The sun shines brightly and warms the world, but I can't even warm the people I care about. ”

Retracting his gaze from the low table, Ling Yu said lightly.

If he was the sun, he should have taken Ye Xiaoyu out of here a long time ago, found a random place, and wandered the world. But he wasn't, so he couldn't give up what he had. So he complied with the holy will and married Jia Xiuyu. and unscrupulously sat on the dragon chair. And even later, there is more to lose for this dragon chair. He's not the sun, he's just an insatiable mortal.

The people at the low table fell silent, and Ling Yu stood up. Walk over to the low table. bent down and hugged Ye Xiaoyu, who had fallen asleep.

The inner chamber of the main hall is the dormitory. Let her get a good night's sleep here.

*

“…… Your martial arts are so strong, in fact, you didn't die at all, right? Please, tell me, what the hell am I going to do now?! ”

After venting tiredness. Zou Youheng crouched on the tombstone and muttered to himself.

There was silence all around, and the only thing that answered him was the crickets in the dark that kept chirping.

*

slept until midnight, Ye Xiaoyu was awakened by an inexplicable sound. Lying barefoot, by the moonlight, she noticed a figure standing in the courtyard. Lonely and lonely, even if she only has her back, she can feel extreme sadness.

Boldly opening the door, she found the man still standing, unaware of the sound of the door being slammed.

The moon was as cool as water, and the bright moonlight poured down, and the man stood motionless like a stone statue. Following the direction of his eyes, Ye Xiaoyu found that his gaze all fell on the high wall standing in front of him.

The figure was too familiar, and Ye Xiaoyu couldn't help but get closer.

The man casually turned his head.

"Sunny?"

Ye Xiaoyu was so frightened that she stopped.

It's a pity that there was no Ye Xiaoyu in the gaze that came, as if he didn't notice that there were people around him, and continued to lock his gaze in the high wall in front of him.

The shape of the high wall was extremely familiar, and Ye Xiaoyu couldn't help but start to observe it carefully.

But before she could figure it out, Qinglang beside her turned her head, untied the white horse tied to the tree, turned over her horse, and ran in the other direction.

"Sunny!"

Ye Xiaoyu shouted behind him. But as soon as the voice came out, it disappeared without a trace, and no one could hear it except Ye Xiaoyu herself.

She didn't want to give up like that, so she also ran in the direction of the sunny one.

The picture in front of her seemed to be arranged and combined, and she hadn't run a few steps before she suddenly shook and returned to a large hall.

There was a golden patch around, and the light was suddenly bright, so that Ye Xiaoyu couldn't help but reach out to block it.

Qinglang stood in the middle of the main hall and was facing Princess Lingwan who was sitting on it.

"How? Have you thought about it? ”

Princess Lingwan walked off the pedestal with a smile, taking brisk steps, swaying around the sunny sky.

Ye Xiaoyu was excited, and instantly clarified his thoughts.

This was when I was in prison that year.

The high wall just now, no wonder she felt inexplicably familiar, because it was the wall of the prison.

So, sunny ......?

"Sunny, don't promise her, I'll be fine? Let's go—"

Ye Xiaoyu hurriedly rushed forward, wanting to hold Qinglang's hand and pull him away from the main hall.

Unfortunately, her hand passed through Qinglang's hand like transparent air.

"Clear, sunny...... Listen to me, I'm doing well in prison, and I don't need you to save me......"

Ye Xiaoyu still didn't give up, and began to stand in front of the sunny and gesture.

However, no matter how much she yelled, the other party could not hear what she said or what she did. It's like she's living on another plane.

"I promise you."

Sunny and faint opening.

"What did you promise her? Can't you promise her? It's me in prison, not you, why are you doing this?!! I don't want to be rescued by you at all!! ”

Ye Xiaoyu shouted hoarsely in front of him.

But her voice can only be heard by herself. And her existence seems to be visible only to herself. (To be continued......)
