Chapter 15: Why Did He Not Want Me Every Time?

After Mu Qingyang left, Ruyue began to learn to be a real princess, tasting tea and embroidering butterflies, and the emperor decreed that no one was allowed to mention the word "Mu Qingyang" in the palace. She also pretended that she had never seen this person, and that she had learned not to ask.

She thought, life should go on so peacefully, but she didn't know that the calm surface of the road often hidden the waves.

In the afternoon, in the aster, the maid brought Mrs. Xuanhua's dinner in turn, the clear soup in the fine porcelain was steaming hot, the fresh and tender gravy of the white eel was looming, even the maid couldn't help but swallow her saliva when she smelled it, but Mrs. Xuanhua had a solemn face, her moon white dress exuded a great rouge smell, she preferred light makeup all day long, she didn't know why she was wearing heavy makeup, even so, she couldn't hide the paleness of her face.

"The emperor has arrived|~" A eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to report, a room of people were shocked, and now the saint is in the wane, and the imperial doctor even warned that it is not suitable for women, so the entire harem does not know how long it has been silent. Now that the Holy Lord has come to see Mrs. Xuanhua, how can they not be excited?

Her personal maid immediately stepped forward to support her master, and her soft and weak appearance made the emperor feel pity, and before she could get up, the emperor had already hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Madame, please get up." He helped Mrs. Xuanhua up, and saw that she was in a much better mood for some reason, so he said casually, "I have time today, maybe I haven't seen Mrs. for a long time, so I have dinner here!" ”

Mrs. Xuanhua looked frightened, and hurriedly shirked it: "If the saint delays the government for the concubine, it is the concubine's sin, and it is better for the saint to go back early." ”

"Out of the way." The emperor only said that she seemed to really feel sorry for him, and he didn't realize that cold sweat had gradually broken out on her forehead, mixed with gouache, exuding a sweet and greasy taste.

While speaking, there was already a maid and a pair of dishes and chopsticks, the saint personally picked up the porcelain spoon for her to serve a night of white eel soup, a moment to feed to her mouth, Mrs. Xuanhua did not have a little appetite at all, seeing that it was the saint himself, and had to drink, she forced herself to swallow a mouthful, instantly intuition stomach turned over the river, she couldn't help it anymore, pushed away the emperor, and spit it out, a maid hurriedly brought a spittoon, knelt on the ground, and the other maid hurriedly brought tea for the master to rinse his mouth. There was also a plate of crimson pastry in front of her, and she only felt that her appetite was too great to care about it, so she picked it up and stuffed it into her mouth.

Emperor Ren also understood what was going on at the moment in a daze, he intuitively felt that he was hot and dry in the summer, and he returned to that year when Liu Yu was born in less than October, and the scandals in the palace were all over the place, and Queen Dugu's words were chiseled and even brought a fingerprint of words, it was clear that someone saw her dating other men with his own eyes, and he suddenly felt dizzy and fainted.

There was a mess in the aster, and some eunuchs hurriedly went to pass the imperial doctor, and Mrs. Xuanhua didn't care much, so she carried the emperor to the sedan chair with everyone, and then followed the sedan chair to the Zhonghua Palace.

Before dinner, Ruyue only felt that the weather was stuffy and hot, and she couldn't even drink the sour plum soup to relieve the heat, she didn't like sour since she was a child, she only took a silk thin fan, and even didn't receive winter flowers.

At the end of summer, the cicadas chirp non-stop. In the distance, I don't know which prince's lord secretly put the paper kite, the sky is not dark, and the lanterns have been hung at the gates of the major palaces. The more I went in the direction of Taiye Pool, the more quiet I felt, there was no one around, and the occasional patrol of the forbidden army was also dodged by Ruyue.

The sky gradually darkened, Ruyue could no longer see the road in front of her, and when she was about to walk back, a Kong Ming lantern rose in the distance, illuminating the overgrown path under her feet, and then more and more Kong Ming lanterns rose, and the night sky was decorated with stars.

After all, she couldn't resist the curiosity, she lifted the corner of her skirt and stepped forward.

The Taiye Pond is full of lotus flowers, the water surface is sparkling under the illumination of Kong Ming lanterns, next to the Agarwood Pavilion with an antique glazed tile roof, he is close to the mountains and rivers, his figure is tall and slender, I saw that the person was wearing a purple robe embroidered with ink patterns, a good white silk silk belt on the waist and a blank jade pendant, a pair of dark purple boots on his feet, jet-black hair combed in a neat bun on the top of the head, set in a delicate purple jade hair crown, hanging down the dark green silk crown belt from both sides of the jade crown, a graceful and suave dress.

He was holding mutton fat and white wax, with a pile of unplaced Kong Ming lanterns beside him, and there were obviously several empty wine jugs at his feet, and he kicked a wine jug into the liquid pool in a negative manner.

He turned sideways slightly, the angular side face was particularly cold in the moonlight, as the moon clearly saw that there were traces of crying on that face, she instantly dispelled the idea that she was ready to leave silently, walked over, stood next to the man, unceremoniously picked up a Kong Ming lantern, and then snatched the white ash in his hand, and took care of herself. It wasn't until Kong Ming's lantern flew far away that he withdrew his gaze.

Li Shimin was already slightly drunk at the moment, he couldn't tell whether this was a dream or reality, plus the moonlight was bright, the people in front of him had red lips and white teeth, and he was looking forward to life, he actually reached out to touch Ruyue's face.

Naturally, he was unceremoniously knocked off, and there was a feeling of pain on the back of his hand, he seemed to be a little sober, and when he saw the person in front of him clearly, his tone became fierce: "Who asked you to destroy this son's drink?" ”

Ruyue only felt that this person was drunk, Xu saw a familiar face, and she only indulged herself like this once, she sighed, and was about to turn around and walk out, she had no intention of exploring why this person was always elusive.

The moment she turned around, her sleeve was pulled by someone, she turned around, Li Shimin's expression was still fierce: "Did you drive Mu Qingyang away?" ”

She only thought it was funny, and just wanted to say something, but the man immediately put on a pitiful expression: "Is it okay for you to call him back, I can't compete with you, can you call him back?" ”

As he spoke, the man seemed to be really drunk, and he swayed from side to side.

Ruyue finally relented, had to turn back, and helped the man to sit down, but as soon as he sat down, he immediately stretched out his hand to wrap around Ruyue like a puppy, and kept stuffing his head into Ruyue's arms, only to see him leaning on Ruyue and moving, and muttering: "Girl, you are so fragrant——"

Ruyue instinctively refused, but the more she struggled, the tighter she hugged him, she couldn't help blushing, even if she was not intimate with Qing Yang to such an extent. She looked around, and it was quiet, the Agarwood Pavilion was submerged in a field of weeds and trees, and even the patrolling forbidden army might not be able to find it.

She thought about how to get out of this trouble, she must not be able to attract people here, but she began to talk to herself: "I have always wanted to take my brother away-all the time--I have thought of all kinds of ways-he used to bow his head whenever I cried--but I am also a beautiful man, how can I cry and cry-"

Ruyue listened carefully to his nonsense, and vaguely felt that he was crying, she suddenly quieted down and continued to listen to him talking nonsense.

"But he won't go with me—my brother used to have only me and my mother, and I have always been the first in his heart—and now somehow a wicked and willful princess has taken my place—"

Ruyue was hugged tightly by him, and when she heard the words "unruly princess", she wanted to stretch out a hand and smash his head, she finally freed up a hand with great effort, but finally patted his head gently.

"He wouldn't go with me—just for the sake of the unruly princess—he wouldn't go with me—I had planned to sacrifice myself if the unruly princess was only greedy for beauty—but my plan hadn't been carried out—he left—he didn't know what to do, and I studied hard every year, and practiced swords, so my father was willing to take me to the palace—I wasn't allowed to disturb him, and I could only watch him from afar—" He seemed to be more and more sad the more he spoke, and unconsciously collapsed Ruyue's shoulder, and the more Ruyue listened, the more sad she became, but she didn't know what she could do. I had to gently pat him on the shoulder, "Just because of this same look, I don't want to be seen every time, for what is the case, he doesn't want me every time-for what is the reason, he doesn't want me every time-"

His voice slowly quieted down, and he fell asleep with Ruyue in his arms, and he didn't forget to sobble in his sleep, completely helpless like a child, Ruyue quietly looked at his and Qingyang's appearance, and looked at this good-looking young man in his sleep for the first time, she actually began to feel sorry for the person in her arms for no reason, and the sadness completely drowned her move towards Mu Qingyang for her not to leave like the sea, she was reluctant to disturb the person in her arms, and she also hugged him and fell asleep - "Her Royal Highness Princess, Her Royal Highness Princess-" There was someone crying in her ear in her sleep, she was so sad that her tears and his story made Ruyue's heart ache beyond words, she felt that someone was pushing her, she opened her eyes with great effort, and two rows of patrol forbidden soldiers in armor stood in front of her.

"What are you going to do?" She was frightened and came to her senses in an instant.

"The princess forgives her sins!" The person in front of him immediately knelt down, "My subordinates just came here to patrol, and I saw the princess sleeping alone in the pavilion." The subordinates did not intend to offend, and asked the princess to atone for their sins. ”

Ruyue looked around, there was no Kong Ming lantern next to the Taiye Pool, there were no empty wine bottles, and there was no person around, was it a dream last night? She began to doubt again.

"Princess—" Seeing that she did not answer, a group of people spoke tentatively.

"Last night—" Ruyue racked her brains and spoke slowly, "It's too hot in the dormitory, so I went out for a walk, maybe it's too cool here, so I took a nap, who knows—I overslept." ”

Ruyue remembered the embrace last night, she blushed unconsciously, she only felt that her face was red and hot, and she quickly got up and rushed in the direction of the Moon Pavilion. The remaining bunch of forbidden soldiers looked at each other, and after a while, they also dispersed.

When they dispersed, Li Shimin slowly walked forward from under a big tree, there seemed to be her lingering fragrance in his arms, he couldn't help but sniff his nose greedily, and for a moment he began to feel annoyed that he was reluctant to get up at the moment he woke up in her arms, presumably he was drunk last night, but there was something rude, he couldn't help but start worrying again.

The morning sun rose slowly, broke through the clouds, revealing the first ray of light, the blue clouds were soft, the lotus flowers were gorgeous, the water rippled, under the golden light, a girl with a red face and red ears rushed away like a deer, the young man behind her looked worried, and stomped his feet in annoyance, and the sun pulled the figures of the two of them -
