121. 120 Healing
The two of them ate together crookedly, talked and laughed at the meal, and ate intermittently until the afternoon.
Suri felt that she had never eaten such a delicious meal in her life, and she was so appetizing that she almost ate everything, and she shook her head when she saw it.
But looking at Su Rui's unpretentious appearance, Sikong Jin was happy and sad at the same time.
He really wanted time to pass slowly, so that her smile could last longer.
Su Rui also knew that there might not be such an opportunity to get along with Sikong Jin alone in the future, she didn't think about it so much, she just thought that there would be a Feng Ling'er between them in the future.
She keenly felt that Sikong Jin's eyes were getting deeper and deeper when she looked at her, but she didn't think about it anywhere else, after all, Nalan Jingxue took her to eavesdrop that night, and she heard with her own ears that Sikong Jin was unwilling to hand her over.
She just thought that if there was one more Feng Ling'er in the future, would she still be so calm?
So she also cherishes such a time, and in her heart she hopes that time will simply stop at this moment.
She has been living alone, battling the disease, it is rare to have a man who is so gentle and considerate to her, she knows that she is not the kind of person who is very open to everything, at least she is really not a person who is open to feelings. She is not as strong as she thinks, this gentleness is like a poison, once it opens the door of her heart, it leads her to continue to fall into the depths, unable to extricate herself.
The more time passed, the more uneasy she felt in her heart.
"What's wrong?" Sikong Jin took Su Rui's hand and asked while walking side by side with her on the road on the outskirts of Beijing. He noticed that Suri was walking a little absent-mindedly.
Su Rui said that he had eaten too much and wanted to go out for a walk, so the two of them went on a trip hand in hand. The carriage followed slowly in the distance, and no one would disturb them on the road.
There was a small hill outside the house, and there was a small river under the hill, but now it was winter, and the river was frozen, and there were a few plum trees blooming on the riverbank.
There are no snowstorms these days, but there will be some light snow, so the plum blossoms very well, and the buds are pressed all over the branches, and the fragrance is pleasant.
The snow-capped road winds around the hills, a few old plum blossom buds bloom on the side of the road, and a quaint arch bridge across the river, the scenery of this path is actually full of antiquity, with a bit of far-reaching feeling in the tranquility.
Su Rui and Sikong Jin walked hand in hand on the road, just like walking in a painting.
"Nothing." Su Rui hesitated for a moment, but still rested his head on Sikong Jin's shoulder.
Sikong Jin is very tall, so Su Rui is very comfortable.
In the past, in modern times, she watched TV, and the female protagonist and the male protagonist fell in love and pressed the road, and she was very envious when she walked like this, but she didn't have that kind of opportunity.
Today, she can be regarded as having the courage to muster up a lot, and it is really sweet. A smile tugged at the corner of Suri's lips.
This is the first time that Su Rui has taken the initiative to get close to him, and Sikong Jin was not only surprised, but also a little sad in his heart.
He lowered his eyes slightly, looking down at Suri, she was quiet and beautiful, just looking at it like this would make people feel comfortable. The corners of her lips were full of happiness, and that smile was supposed to be able to warm people's hearts, but it was like a sharp sword, which suddenly pierced into Sikong Jin's heart.
If he could, he would be willing to keep this sweet and happy smile, but now......
Su Rui felt that Sikong Jin's body was a little tense, she thought it was because she was close, she raised her head a little reluctantly, and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I thought it was ...... I know you don't like people being near you. She stopped, her eyes lowered uneasily.
Seeing her cramped and uneasy, Sikong Jin guessed that she would be wrong, why did he not like her approach? He just wished he could keep her under his wing.
But he doesn't have that right now.
All of a sudden, he hated himself!
Why did he have to be decadent for so many years, if he didn't give up on himself for so many years, didn't change his temperament drastically, didn't let go of everything, but kept paying close attention to the second emperor brother, how could he do so many things in secret.
If his ability is enough, how can he be led by Nalan Jingxue now!
He vigorously hugged Suri into his arms and muttered, "Don't say I'm sorry. You're not sorry for me. It's me who is sorry for you! β
Su Rui was stunned, and then relaxed his body, "I know that it is difficult for you, and I also understand the relationship between Feng Ling'er and you." It's good not to mention these. Su Rui thought he was talking about Feng Ling'er.
Sikong Jin's heart was already in pain beyond measure, he had never hurt so much, and his arm trembled slightly from the pain.
"I'm not feeling good either." Su Rui felt Sikong Jin's light trembling, and she couldn't help but comfort Sikong Jin in turn, "Don't think about it now." There is a solution. We can figure it out together. She naturally wrapped her arms around Sikong Jin's waist and gently patted him on the back to show comfort.
Together...... Sikong Jin's breath was suffocated, and he also hoped that they could still be together, but as soon as the sun set, he was afraid that the two of them would be separated forever.
His gaze looked at the western sky in the distance, time was merciless, even if he didn't want to, the sun was still slowly moving westward after all.
His arms tightened tightly on Suri's thin frame, as if that would slow down the setting of the sun.
It's snowing again.
He could feel the chill of the cold snowflakes falling from the sky and falling on his face.
He used the best possible to include Suri in his heart, at least for this moment, he could still give everything he had to protect her.

In the secret room of His Royal Highness, the high-grade incense still could not dispel the faint bloody aura that permeated the hall.
Sikong Jue stood quietly in the center of the secret room, looking at his father who was already dying on the sickbed.
"Come to me, do you really figure it out?" Nalan Jingxue's voice came unhurriedly from behind him.
Sikong Jue looked back, and Nalan Jingxue, under the guidance of Xiao Shunzi, walked down the steps of the secret room step by step.
Although Xiao Shunzi didn't know who this man with a silver-gray metal mask was, he knew what it was to observe words and colors when he was on an errand in the palace.
He knew that the two princes were very jealous of this mysterious gray-clothed man, so he was also respectful, and he was afraid that he would make a mistake and cause trouble for the two princes.
He also knew that Emperor Shunde was about to die, but he could feel that this mysterious man might have a way to save the situation.
Emperor Shunde was secretly moved into the secret room of His Royal Highness today, he was arranged to take care of Emperor Shunde, he knew that if Emperor Shunde was born, he would be born, if Emperor Shunde was going to die today, I was afraid that he would not even die soon.
Attracting people, he exited the secret room in a funny way. What he shouldn't be listening to, he still listens less for seconds.
"Yes." Sikong Jue nodded slowly.
A chuckle spilled out from behind the mask, "The royal family is really kind, this sentence is indeed true." It has been fulfilled again and again. He walked over, "That's right, one less Su Rui is harmless, but without the emperor, the Hu country will be in chaos." Nalan Jingxue paused, "If I were you, I would choose it this way." β
Sikong Jue's face was even more pale, "Nalan Gongzi doesn't have to be sarcastic, I only ask Gongzi one sentence, if my father and emperor can't get better, what should Gongzi do!" His tone was a bit sharp.
"The rule of our Burning Heaven Palace is not to do uncertain deals." Nalan Jingxue chuckled and said, "If I agree, I will definitely be able to save him." With that, he pulled out a roll of plain silk from his wide sleeved robe.
"If you are willing to change it, just put a handprint on it." Nalan Jingxue smiled, "When he wakes up, your imperial doctor will confirm that the person is ready, and I will take the people who belong to me away." β
Sikong Jue took the plain silk a little indifferently, unfolded it and looked at it, it was nothing more than a contract.
"I'm not going to put a mudra." As soon as Sikong Jue exerted his strength, the silk instantly cracked, turning into fragments and falling down one after another, "I swear in the name of the Sikong Imperial Family, if you can cure my father and emperor, Su Rui will take it away by yourself." β
Nalan Jingxue's eyes flashed slightly, and she pondered for a moment, then smiled, "It's okay." You don't want to leave evidence, and that's fine. I'll believe you for once. β
"All you have to do is believe." Sikong Jue's voice was a little calm, "But if you can't heal my father, don't even want to get out of here." β
"Threaten me?" Nalan Jingxue smiled arrogantly when she heard this, "I'm really not afraid!" He patted Sikong Jue on the shoulder and said with a smile, "But it's been a long time since I've heard threatening words." Interesting and interesting. β
Sikong Jue's hand was tightly usurped into a fist, if he could, he would rather fight with Nalan Jingxue happily than be restrained by him everywhere!
But if this punch is thrown, he will be happy, and his father's only glimmer of life will be interrupted by him.
Sikong Jue endured and endured, but still hugged his fists and saluted, "Please also ask Nalan Gongzi to save people." β
"Where's Suri?" Nalan Jingxue asked with a smile.
"As long as people are saved. Su Rui is on a village ten miles outside Beijing. Sikong Jue said. When the time comes, she will naturally tell SΓΉ Gongzi of her whereabouts. Childe just needs to go and take the people away. β
"Okay." Nalan Jingxue nodded, "I'm not afraid that you will break your word." After he finished speaking, he didn't talk nonsense anymore, made a long list, and handed it to Sikong Jue to prepare.
Sikong Jue didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he immediately called someone in and did what Nalan Jingxue ordered.
Time passed little by little, and Sikong Jue was a little anxious to stay outside the secret room.
started to detoxify Emperor Shunde from Nalan Jingxue, and he was driven out by Nalan Jingxue.
The time for detoxification continued, and Sikong Jue didn't know how many times he had turned around in the prayer hall.
He didn't know what was going on, only that he had been waiting from morning to mid-afternoon.
Finally, there was a sound in the stone door of the secret room, and Sikong Jue's whole body became tense.
The gray figure finally appeared behind the stone door of the secret room, "Let's go in and have a look." He greeted Sikong Jue.
Sikong Jue grabbed Imperial Physician Hu, who was resting in the prayer hall, with lightning speed, and rushed into the secret room.
The bloody qi in the secret room was a little thicker than when he came out, and Sikong Jue's heart was about to jump out of his mouth.
He trembled and uncovered the gauze tent that shrouded the sickbed, and Emperor Shunde looked at Sikong Jue with a tired face.
"Father!" Sikong Jue cried out in a lost voice, his knees weakened, and he fell to his knees.
"Good boy." Emperor Shunde's voice sounded weakly, and a hand shaped like a withered branch stroked Sikong Jue's hair.
"What else does Father feel?" Sikong Jue hurriedly asked in a trembling voice. He turned back to Imperial Physician Hu who was kneeling on the side and said, "What are you doing kneeling here?" Why don't you hurry up and ask for a pulse for Your Majesty! β
"Yes." Imperial Doctor Hu didn't even dare to raise his head, and moved to the side of the sickbed on his knees, "Your Majesty, Weichen has asked for a pulse." After he finished speaking, Emperor Shunde stretched out his hand in front of him.
He concentrated on the pulse, and was surprised to find that the pulse that had been so disordered that it could not be added to it was now completely straightened out.
He didn't dare to say anything, so he could only take it again, and then checked the rest of Emperor Shunde, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "Congratulations, congratulations, although your body is very weak, there are no other major problems." β
Then he said to Sikong Jue, "Congratulations to the prince." β
"Are you careful?" Sikong Jue was surprised and delighted, and still asked uneasily.
"Wechen dared to take his life as a guarantee. His body is really fine. It only needs to be recuperated and saved. Imperial Doctor Hu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, although it was a cold winter, his underwear was already wet with cold sweat from his body!
"I'm feeling good right now. Don't embarrass Dr. Hu. Emperor Shunde said with a smile, he is still weak, but from being able to speak now, I have to say that Nalan Jingxue is really outstanding.
He pointed to a small bowl of black blood on the side and said, "The doctor said that all the toxins in my body have been discharged, and as long as I recuperate in the future, I will slowly recover." β
"Great, great, great." Sikong Jue was so excited that he didn't know what to say, but he just said three times in a row.
"Where's Ah Jin?" Emperor Shunde asked.
Sikong Jue's starry eyes just rose a little brightly, and they dimmed in an instant.
He glanced back at Nalan Jingxue and said, "Please also ask Nalan Gongzi to avoid it." β
Nalan Jingxue shrugged her shoulders indifferently and walked out of the secret room.
