337. Caught in the Bag

Spring passed quickly. It's early summer again, the breeze is cool, and the sky is high and the clouds are light.

In the past, in a season like this, when the clothes were thin and not too hot, Nian Nian was my favorite. But now, it's different.

She had to dress up as a pregnant woman, not only in bulky and wide clothes to hide her still slim body. And she couldn't jump around as much as she used to, she felt that this kind of day was tormented, and she felt like a year.

So, that night, when Li Mo returned to the Taihe Palace to rest.

Nian Nian stopped Li Mo and said sullenly: "Prince, I really can't stand it anymore, how long do I have to pretend like this?" Didn't you say you'd find a way to get me out of the palace? Why aren't you letting me out now? ”

Li Mo looked at Nian Nian, her appearance in a wide dress looked extremely funny.

looked at Li Mo and laughed, he didn't answer Nian Nian's question directly, but looked at Nian Nian teasingly and smiled: "You look like this, you really look like a mother-to-be." ”

"I'm almost annoyed, and you're still laughing at people." Nian Nian said angrily.

She felt that since the prince said that she was fake pregnant, the relationship between the two had become closer, and the prince was not as strict in front of her as before.

And she herself talked to the prince more casually. Now it seems that no matter what she says, the prince will not be angry with her.

"Don't bother, I'll make arrangements. Actually, I've already found you a place full of flowers and trees. I have appointed Han Qi to supervise the construction and find craftsmen to build a comfortable house there, just so that you can have a safe and stable residence when you leave the palace in the future. Looking at Nian Nian's puffing appearance, Li Mo smiled tolerantly.

"Is it true? Prince, that's great! Wow, I heard you say that this place is so beautiful, I can't wait to go there now. Nian Nian cheered.

Looking at Niannian's happy appearance, Li Mo was also very happy.

He felt that the relationship between him and Nian Nian was really wonderful now, and his heart would be happy when he saw Nian Nian happy. On the contrary, if Nian Nian is depressed, his heart will be inexplicably worried.

It's really hard to explain that subtle feeling.

It's as if Nian Nian is a little sister close to him, and he is willing to spoil her and take care of her. However, it seems to be a little more than my sister's feelings.

What is it? Li Mo didn't want to think about it. He already has Su Xiaorou, and he doesn't want to make Su Xiaorou unhappy with him because of his thoughts.

Therefore, in his heart, he has always positioned his thoughts on the concept of his sister.

"Hehe, are you so eager to get out of the palace? You are willing to be a little soft...... Can you give it to all of us? Li Mo asked with a smile.

"Of course I can't bear it, but I can't help it if I don't leave the palace. I'm not pregnant at all, and if the emperor and the queen mother know, then I have only a dead end. I don't want to die, I'm still so young, and there are so many beautiful things that I haven't experienced yet. Of course, I would not hesitate to choose the path of escape rather than death. Nian Nian said helplessly, and when he finished speaking, he looked at the prince and added worriedly: "Prince, I'm really afraid of dying." ”

Li Mo saw Nian Nian's big black and white eyes shining with worry, and he was suddenly a little moved.

The girl in front of him was really frankly cute, honest and cute, and he said movingly: "Niannian, you won't die." Trust me, I'm not going to let you die. ”

"Well, Prince, I believe in you, I have always believed in you." Nian Nian nodded, in her heart, she did have an indescribable trust in the prince.

"So, don't think about it and go to bed early, okay?" Li Mo said that the tone was really like to a pampered little sister.

"Hehe, but I don't want to sleep yet. I'm going to find Xiaorou, and I want to tell her that you are building a house in a beautiful place, and I will live there in the future. Nian Nian grinned and ran out with a puff of smoke.

Su Xiaorou often likes to joke with Nian Nian now, saying that Nian Nian is now pretending to be a pregnant woman, so she must bask in the sun more and breathe fresh air, so she always likes to pull Nian Nian around the palace.

Although Nian Nian was annoyed that Su Xiaorou always liked to make fun of her when she seized this incident, she didn't care.

Anyway, she herself is a more fun-loving person, and she is happy to run around and play with Su Xiaorou. Just remember to remind yourself to act cautiously at all times, not to rush crazy, and not to jump around.

On this day, Nian Nian and Su Xiaorou went out to play and came back. walked to the gate of the Taihe Palace, but unexpectedly saw Su Junchu hurriedly walking over.

"Xiaorou, Niannian, you two come home with me. Uncle Fan asked someone to bring me a letter, saying that something had happened to my father and mother. Su Junchu looked anxious, and said hurriedly when he saw them.

"What? What happened to my father and mother? Su Xiaorou's face changed suddenly, and she grabbed Su Junchu's hand and asked.

"Third brother, what's wrong with my uncle and aunt?" Nian Nian also hurriedly asked.

"It's not clear what the specific situation is, I feel that it may be very bad, Uncle Fan only said that a few of us must rush back as much as possible." Su Junchu's face was extremely ugly, he looked at the two girls, and said, "I have already found the carriage, just wait in front, we have to go back quickly." ”

"Hmm." Nian Nian nodded, pulled the pale-faced Su Xiaorou and followed Su Junchu to the front.

The three of them got into the carriage, and the coachman, under Su Junchu's instructions, galloped all the way and soon arrived at Su Mansion.

After getting out of the car, Su Junchu hurriedly walked into the Su Mansion compound, and Nian Nian pulled the stumbling Su Xiaorou and walked in after him.

Uncle Fan was standing in the courtyard with a sad expression, and as soon as he saw the three of them coming in, Uncle Fan immediately greeted him, wiped his tears and said, "Third son, Miss, Miss Cousin, you are back." Steward Lin and Xiaocui rushed back from Huzhou, and they said that the lord and the lady ......"

"What's wrong with my mom and dad? What about the Lin family? Su Junchu was anxious, and walked into the door of the main hall with his feet raised.

Niannian's heart sank, and her nervousness and worry made her unable to say a word, so she could only walk towards the house with Su Xiaorou, who was almost unsteady on her feet.

Walking into the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the three of them saw a large white flower hanging in the center of the wall facing the door of the room, and black veils hung on both sides of the white flower. Steward Lin also had black yarn wrapped around his arm, and he was directing the family members to arrange the hall.

Seeing Su Junchu and them coming in, Steward Lin came forward and knelt down for Su Junchu and the three of them with a "plop", and said with tears in his eyes: "Third son, miss, you can punish me." I didn't take good care of my lord and lady, I damn it......" said it, crying silently.

Su Junchu's eyes were dizzy for a while, he tried to stabilize the center of gravity of his body to make himself stand firm, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Steward Lin, you get up and speak, what's going on with my father and my mother?" ”

"Back to the third son, the old man hurried to Huzhou to take office that day, and he was tired all the way and worried. After arriving in Huzhou, he couldn't afford to get sick, and he didn't eat well when he asked Langzhong to prescribe medicine to him, and he lost his temper every day. The condition is getting worse day by day, and a few days ago, the old man finally couldn't hold on...... "Steward Lin said this, the old man burst into tears, and he couldn't talk anymore.

"What about my mother? Where is my mother now? Su Junchu and Su Xiaorou asked in trembling voices at the same time.

Su Xiaorou's face turned pale, and her body was also trembling violently.

Nian Nian was in tears, and only by holding Su Xiaorou firmly could she not let her body fall down because she couldn't support it.

"Madame, she...... She has been taking care of the master, and she blames me for being too negligent. The day after the master went, I went out to find the fortune teller to show the master the grave. Madame explained to me that in the future, their mourning hall would be set up in the capital Prime Minister's Mansion, and I didn't think much about it at that time, and hurriedly walked out after agreeing. Who would have thought that when he came back, he would see Mrs. her...... She couldn't think about it for a while, so she committed suicide by hanging the beam and followed her master...... Third son, I should die, I'm guilty......" Steward Lin said and cried silently, and the maids on the side also lowered their heads and secretly wiped their tears.

"Dad, mother......" Su Xiaorou screamed miserably, only to feel that it was dark in front of her, and her person fell straight down.

Nian Nian hurriedly helped her, crying while beckoning Xiaocui and the two maids, who were stimulated by the sudden bad news Su Xiaorou and helped her to lie down in the bedroom in the backyard.

Su Xiaorou never woke up, and Niannian sat on the edge of the bed guarding her.

I remembered that when I came to Xiangfu at the beginning of the crossing, I saw Su Xiangye and Mrs. Su looking dignified and demeanor, like a pair of fairy couples in the world. Now his soul has returned to the west, and he has passed away for a long time. I can't help but sigh that the world is impermanent, fate is changeable, and life is so fragile.

Nian Nian silently shed tears and sat on the side of Su Xiaorou's bed for a long time. She suddenly thought that this bad news must also be a huge blow to Su Junchu. I don't know how Su Junchu is doing now?

She hurriedly got up, told Xiaocui and them to take care of the young lady, and walked to the front hall by herself, wanting to see Su Junchu.

When Nian Nian walked into the front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he saw that the mourning hall in the hall was already in good condition. Steward Lin and the others were all gone, and Su Junchu stood alone in the center of the hall, like a silent fossil.

Niannian's heart was sour, she knew that Su Junchu was so sad that she would be so silent.

She walked over, gently hugged Su Junchu's stiff body, choked up and said, "Third brother, don't be too sad, my uncle and aunt have already gone." You have to drive a little bit and don't be too sad, lest you damage your body. ”

Su Junchu hugged Nian Nian and didn't say anything, just hugged her tightly.

Two lines of light and unflicked men's tears slowly slid down his handsome face, drop by drop, and fell on the head of the girl who gently hugged him......

Meng Niannian raised her head in shock and saw the tears in Su Junchu's eyes. A man who is so strong and forbearant cried in front of her for the first time.

Nian Nian only felt a sharp colic in her heart, and Su Junchu's tears made her feel so heartache and heartbreak.

But at this time, she couldn't say a word of comfort, she could only gently wipe the tears on Su Junchu's face with her fingers, and kept saying: "Third brother, don't cry, I feel so uncomfortable when I see you crying......"

However, Su Junchu still didn't speak, just silently shed tears, his body was as cold as ice.

Niannian's tears also rolled down, and he couldn't help standing on tiptoe and gently kissing the tears on Su Junchu's face, hoping that this gentle kiss could pass on some warmth and comfort to him.

The girl's gentle kiss awakened the tenderness hidden in Su Junchu's heart.

He cupped Niannian's face, and softly kissed her weeping eyes and her cold lips back...... The tears of the two people merged together, forgetting the existence of all things in the world......

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door from far to near, and only Steward Lin was busy shouting: "Welcome to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Before Nian Nian and Su Junchu could separate from the kiss, they saw Li Mo striding in from outside the door.

Seeing Nian Nian and Su Junchu hugging each other tightly, Li Mo couldn't help but be stunned, and his face immediately condensed with a layer of frost. Immediately afterward, an indescribable fury burned rapidly in his chest.

Nian Nian was originally his wife, although this wife was only a nominal wife.

But at this time, I saw this nominal wife hugging other men together, and kissed selflessly. In Li Mo's heart, he still felt an unspeakable humiliation and anger.

He walked over with heavy breathing, and walked all the way to Su Junchu and Niannian, staring closely at the two people who were snuggled together unwillingly, suppressing the anger that was about to explode, and said in a cold voice: "Can anyone give me an explanation?" What's the matter with you two like this?! ”

Nian Nian hurriedly left from Su Junchu's arms, and before he could speak, he heard Su Junchu say: "Prince, since you saw it today, then I have nothing to hide from you." Nian Nian and I used to be a pair of lovers, and we are still deeply in love with each other. ”

"But don't forget! She's my wife now! Li Mo roared angrily, his eyes almost spewing fire.

"I haven't forgotten jì, I haven't forgotten jì for a day, she's your wife now! I'm also reminding myself every moment that she's your wife now! However, that doesn't stop me from still loving her in my heart! Su Junchu also burst out and shouted.

The two men stared at each other without giving in, with the anger that threatened to knock each other down.

Then, Li Mo said coldly: "It's good that you haven't forgotten jì, then please remember to respect her and yourself in the future!" ”

"Very good, don't worry, I will respect her and I will respect you. However, I want to make it clear to you that in my heart, I have never given up on her! Someday, I'll let her come back to my arms with dignity! I won't let her stay with you forever! Su Junchu sneered and replied.
