264. Chapter 263 6
Silver hooks across the sky, the stars are sparse, and under the soft and soft yellow moonlight, the secluded courtyard seems to be covered with a layer of soft and transparent tulle, blooming with hazy beauty.
A white shadow as swift as the wind flickered in the hazy light and shadow, stopping the hurried figure ahead.
He stopped her, but he didn't say a word, just stared at her, his eyes were dark and focused, like two bright stars gathering all their light to focus on her in the vast and boundless inky sky.
She hung her head, her whole face immersed in shadow, her long, curly eyelashes casting two dark arcs under her eyelids, just like the breath around her at this moment, some dark, some cluttered, and unclear.
Both of them were silent, not knowing what Lu Dao was thinking, and in the gradually noisy sound of insects, such silence was still abrupt.
I don't know how long it took, Zhuge Wuwei seemed to have finally mustered up the courage and said, "Mulan, the child's business...... I didn't mean to hide it from you, I was just afraid...... I was afraid that you would not want this child and would not be able to accept his existence for the time being, so I decided to hide it from you for the time being, planning to tell you everything when I found the right time. ”
When the words fell, what responded to Zhuge Wuwei was the noisy insect chirping around him, and the "rustle" sound of the leaves being blown by the wind and rubbing against each other, although he was a little anxious, but he still waited patiently for the person in front of him to respond, and his chest fell together in the bright moonlight, and the arc was not shallow......
After a while, just when the members of the Mo Family Army who were hidden in the shadows thought that the two of them would stand in the courtyard all night, Yun Jinghua finally raised his head to look at him, his eyes clear.
"When did you learn about it?"
The gaze was too clear and calm, not as scorching as the anger he imagined, and his heart jumped suddenly.
With some uneasiness in his heart, he replied truthfully, "It is the day I brought you back." ”
Yun Jinghua recalled intently, that day he recognized her identity, she refused to admit it, so he took her to the strange cave, thinking of the law to force her to comply, thinking that he must have asked a doctor to diagnose her pulse after she fainted, so as to learn that she had a child, but at that time, he thought that she would not have this child, so he concealed the truth, saying that she would faint because she was overworked.
Yun Jinghua stared at him for a while, and then asked, "Are you a descendant of the Dacheng royal family?" ”
She asked so directly and frankly, her voice was flat and could not hear the slightest hint of closeness or distance, like a high and heavy mountain, pressing towards Zhuge Wuwei in a heavy manner.
Zhuge Wuwei felt that his chest was heavy and a little stuffy, and he was silent for a long time before he spit out one word: "Hmm." ”
"So you should have the surname 'Ji', not 'Zhuge '?"
"Yes."
"The last emperor of Dacheng back then, that is, your ancestor, was killed by the ancestor of the palace night, so you want to seek revenge on them and want to regain the country that originally belonged to your Ji family?"
“…… Well. Zhuge Wuwei's nodding movement was a little stiff.
"When did you know that I was Mu Bangqing? It's not like I accidentally told you where I came from that night when I got drunk, right? ”
"Yes, I knew it before that......"
"Did you approach me because of that ridiculous phoenix rumor? Do you also think that if you marry me or get me, you can easily get back the country that belongs to your Ji family? Yun Jinghua's eyes gradually became a little sharp, and the sharp light shot out of her eyes, as if it could penetrate people's hearts.
"No, I never thought that way...... Zhuge Wuwei eagerly denied it, and there was a flash of urgency between his eyebrows, but Yun Jinghua didn't give him too much time to defend himself.
"None? Are you sure? Among the subordinate soldiers under your command, how many of them know that I am Mu Bangqing? Do you dare to say that you don't know any of them? None of them think so? ”
"Mulan, listen to me......"
"Listen to me. I ask you, if I hadn't stumbled upon your conversation with that Mr. Fan tonight, when were you going to tell me everything about you? Will you wait until I find out for myself, or are you going to wait until the dust settles before explaining it to me? Because at that point, even if I regret it, everything is a foregone conclusion? ”
"I ......" There are too many questions, Zhuge Wuwei didn't know which one to answer first, and he suddenly felt that he was stupid, far less intelligent than he had always felt for himself.
Under the man's sharp gaze, he said earnestly: "Mulan, listen to me, things are not what you imagined. In order to revive Dacheng Sheji, I did work step by step, and I did everything I could, just to be able to exchange for my Ji family's country with the least bloodshed and sacrifice in the future, but I never calculated you.
Well, strictly speaking I have calculated, but I have never done it for some insidious and dark intention, and all I have done is to bring you to my side, to get closer to my world, away from the flowers and plants that are pestering you.
If this is wrong and guilty, then I admit my mistake and admit my guilt, and you can punish me however you want, but please don't alienate me and isolate me from now on, I can't live without you and our ......"
Before the "child" could finish speaking, Yun Jinghua raised his hand to interrupt Zhuge Wuwei's words, "Okay, you don't have to say it, you can go." ”
Zhuge Wuwei was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly: "Mulan, don't you believe what I said?" ”
Yun Jinghua glanced at him lightly, turned sideways and said, "I said, you can go, if you don't go, then I'll go." ”
"Okay, okay, I'll go." Zhuge Wuwei hurriedly said, even though there were many uneasiness and reluctance in his heart, he had to stop in three steps, and turn back in five steps, leaving the space to Yun Jinghua.
But he didn't dare to go too far, and after passing through the arch, he stayed in the courtyard next door, listening intently to Yun Jinghua's movements......
Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, blinking, Yun Jinghua sighed almost inaudibly, even though she had been mentally prepared, but Zhuge Wuwei's life experience still surprised her and made her feel at a loss.
The royal family, that is not the place she wants to be close to, the palace or officialdom, too much gloom and coldness, driven by power and interests, whether it is family or love and friendship, it always becomes worthless, just like everything that happened to Mu Bangqing in the past.
Although Mu Bangqing is the daughter of Shangshu, she has endured all the cynicism, and the hateful Mu Yanzhi has not only fulfilled his father's duties for a day, but even watched coldly when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dissolved the marriage contract.
Even if she is no longer the Mu Bangqing of the past, the person she wants to join hands for a lifetime is not the palace night but Zhuge Wuwei, but the palace wall is deep and the power is like the sea, can his sincerity to her withstand the test of all kinds of temptations/temptations?
Only one scoop of weak water 3,000 is taken to drink, looking at the emperors of the past dynasties, who really did it? She didn't want to, really want, to work with another woman, she didn't want to share the favor of one person with many people, in a palatial cage where the canary was kept, waiting for the favor of someone who would not know when she would think of her.
No matter how much other women want to enter the palace, how much they want to be favored, and how much they want to become the harem concubine who seems to be golden and noble, but that kind of life is by no means what she is pursuing. Compared with the life in the palace, she would rather walk the rivers and lakes in rough clothes and food, and be a free and easy heroine.
Withdrew his gaze from the sky, turned around and looked around the courtyard he was in now, thinking about the similarities between this place and the Yecheng Prime Minister's Mansion, thinking about the bits and pieces of the two getting along in the past few days and the various pasts in the Prime Minister's Mansion, a little hesitation flashed in his clear eyes.
It's easy to get acquainted, it's easy to get to know each other, but it's too difficult to cherish each other for a long time, take care of her like Zhuge Wuwei, just give him up like this, because he is a descendant of the royal family, he won't give him the slightest chance, is it fair to him? Will she regret it in the future?
As he said, they still have children, if she just leaves, is it fair to the children?
She should have given him a chance to confirm whether what he had said to her was a joke......
The phoenix's eyes trembled, lowered his eyes, and raised his eyes again, Yun Jinghua walked to the direction where Zhuge Wuwei had just left.
Hearing her movements, and seeing her come out from behind the arch, Zhuge Wuwei's eyes flashed, and his lips moved, but he was silent.
She stood in front of the archway, looked at the people bathed in the moonlight like Zhilan jade trees, and said softly: "It's not too early, let's go back to dinner." ”
Seeing Zhuge Wuwei's expression, she immediately showed ecstasy in her eyes, and she reminded coldly: "Regarding the festival of the Ji family and the Gong family, you have to explain it clearly, and you are not allowed to hide it or fool me with lies, I want to know the truth of the Dao." ”
"Yes." Zhuge Wuwei hurriedly responded, "Let's go back to the room, no matter what you want to know, I will tell you the truth, and there will never be the slightest concealment or half-truth." ”
Zhuge Wuwei came over with a hippie smile, like a cheap and obedient scoundrel, Yun Jinghua saw that he was about to approach, Xiu Mei frowned and moved his feet to avoid his fox paws, and said coldly: "Be disciplined, from now on, you are not allowed to touch me without my permission, if there is a violation, you can do it yourself." ”
After speaking, Zhuge Wuwei was left with a proud back, Zhuge Wuwei stared at her back, raised his claws in the air, and laughed silently.
It's good that she stayed......
This night, too many people were sleepless.
Someone lies in someone's arm and listens to a true story that is not known to the world in the middle of the night.
Someone put his arms around the person in his arms, smiled contentedly, and stared at the person in his arms all night.
Some people are nervous about tomorrow's last competition, tossing and turning in bed and unable to sleep, and finally get out of bed to study the opponent's moves, thinking about ways to break through quickly.
Someone is deploying closely, just to take the daughter of the phoenix by surprise and set off the smoke of war.
Someone stood behind the table, and the last one to explain to his subordinates: "Convey the will of this palace, and you must win the position of alliance leader tomorrow!" ”
After the subordinate withdrew, the man left the desk and paced outside, his eyes sinking into the night sky.
Zhuge Wuwei, no matter what your origin is, what unknown plans you have, it is from this palace, and you will never be able to grab it!
