Chapter 187: Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new
Song Anle was not infected by the noise and jubilation, but she still preferred to be quiet, so she walked along the river and walked in some quieter areas.
Passing through one of the garden gates, she came to another lake, which was not as noisy as before, but the atmosphere was no less festive, when a painting boat on the riverside attracted her.
The boat is shrouded in bright flashing lights, from the lights, you can almost distinguish the whole boat clearly, the magnificent appearance, the exquisite style, although only from a distance, but can still imagine the luxurious construction of the boat.
Song Anle has heard the news about Gao Jin and everyone welcoming the New Year on the painting boat, so with the style of the painting boat in the river, it should be Gao Jin's painting boat, thinking of the long-lost stranger, she thought of her parents, and even recalled in the vague memory of childhood, although the memory is vague, but it always stays in her mind, not deep or shallow, not thick or light.
Because there were too many heavy memories surging up at once, she couldn't brew and relieve them for a while, so Song Anle closed her beautiful eyes slightly, took a deep breath of cold air, and only then spit out the breath leisurely until the cold air was hot.
Unconsciously, Song Anle didn't know that he was strolling there, looking at the painting boats of different sizes on the riverside, sometimes close to the bank, sometimes docked in the riverside, although they were wandering in the water, they were as comfortable as if they were on land.
In a trance, a familiar but unfamiliar smell permeated her snort, and Song Anle sniffed it subconsciously, as if to distinguish between the inexplicable taste, whether it was familiar or unfamiliar.
Because she couldn't tell for a long time, she felt a sense of depression around her approaching her, but it was not ominous, so she turned around to find out where the sense of smell came from and where the depression came from.
In the blink of an eye, it didn't make her spend much eyesight, but Gao Yuanyi was standing beside her, because she was going to turn around, so she didn't pay attention to her side, so that when she saw Gao Yuanyi, she was still in a trance, as if it was an accident or incredible.
Because she was too surprised, Song Anle's reaction seemed a little slow, and after she calmed down, she took a step back and said, "See the second prince." ”
Gao Yuanyi didn't mind her etiquette, but always said casually: "It's really not easy to find you in the vast sea of people. ”
"Looking for me?" Song Anle looked at him with a look of surprise and confusion.
Gao Yuanyi said with a smile: "It's the New Year, I specially say Happy New Year." ”
Song Anle said with some embarrassment: "Thank you to the second prince, the second prince should also have fun." ”
"It's just the two of us here, do you want to restrain us so strictly?"
Song Anle couldn't find the right words to respond for a while, so she pretended to understand and said: "The second prince is joking, there are many people coming and going here, how can it be said that there are only the two of us." ”
"You mean, I should call them all over to celebrate?" Gao Yuanyi didn't give Song Anle a chance to reply, but turned to the side, as if he was going to greet the people who came and went.
"Hey~" Song Anle hurriedly pulled him, because of her relationship with Gao Yuanshang, everyone rejected and contempt her, she didn't want to add a Gao Yuanyi to mix, so she said again: "I didn't mean that." ”
Song Anle deliberately replied without an honorific title, that is, a kind of gentle obedience, Gao Yuanyi smiled, and he pulled her back and said, "Let's go, take you somewhere." ”
"Hey~ Where are you going?" Song Anle didn't even have time to refuse, he was already pulled away by Gao Yuanyi, and he only gave a sentence of "You'll know if you go." ”
Song Anle didn't refuse anymore, because there was no room for refusal, and with Gao Yuanyi's calmness, she shouldn't have done anything unacceptable to her.
Gao Yuanyi led Song Anle all the way to the riverside, and when he listened to the things on the side of a small boat, the small boat floated on the river, and the size could only accommodate two or three people.
Gao Yuanyi said while supporting her: "Come, I'll take you to the river to play and see the night view of our palace." ”
"No, no, no;" Song Anle hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, the second prince should accompany the emperor and the empress to observe the New Year, how dare I take your precious time." ”
"It is inevitable to accompany my father and mother, but I just bring you more."
"The second prince must not;" Song Anle said nervously and eagerly: "The status of the servant girl is low, and she is a beautiful woman to be selected, it is a great disrespect to collide with the emperor and the queen's mother so recklessly, the second prince is kind, An Le is grateful, but An Le asks the second prince, you still don't have to be embarrassed." ”
Song Anle is bent on avoiding the emperor and the queen It is too late, how can she appear in front of them like this, aside from the grievances and grievances of the previous generation, even if it is herself, she can't find a suitable identity to appear with Gao Yuanyi.
"Since you are so embarrassed, then I won't embarrass you, anyway, the coming day is long, and there is a chance to meet you."
"Thank you." In Song Anle's words, there was obviously a pause, she originally called him the second prince out of instinct, but she was afraid of upsetting him, but with the former Gao Gongzi, it didn't seem to fit in with this palace, so she could only euphemistically call him a thank you.
Gao Yuanyi sensitively heard the meaning of her words, and he had long wanted to improve the title between them, so he took advantage of this to achieve what he wanted, and he said softly and lightly: "If you don't mind, you can call me Yuanyi directly." ”
"Calling the second prince by his name, but it's a big crime of disrespect, I don't dare to take a small life for nothing;" Song Anle thought for a moment, and then said: "It's better like this, the second prince has the title of King Yong, or I will call you King Yong on my behalf?" ”
Gao Yuanyi showed a sunny smile meaningfully, because the pronouns of King Yong are all after being crowned as a concubine or concubine, they will be used as a kind of family and career, and they can be used as a substitute, but Gao Yuanyi has not yet married, so he can't be called King Yong at all, but Song Anle's unintentional intention aroused his desire to marry.
So Gao Yuanyi said with a little playfulness: "King Yong can only be substituted after marrying, unless you are willing to help me break this layer of separation?" ”
Where would Song Anle know that there is such a distinction between the prince and the title, no wonder some people call Gao Yuankang the fifth prince, and some people call him King Lin, presumably because he has already married.
Song Anle wanted to think about it, but she still bowed her head and said: "The maidservant has no talent and no virtue, and she will never dare to climb to the position of nothingness." ”
Fortunately, it was night at this time, and the night covered her flushed cheeks, and also concealed her embarrassed and nervous look, but Gao Yuanyi's naked-naked-naked hint made her really nervous, and it could be said that she was about to move.
Gao Yuanyi has been worried about their relationship as early as when he learned that Gao Yuanshang and Song Anle were entangled in their relationship, maybe he was not confident enough in himself, so he would always worry that Song Anle would lose to Gao Yuanshang, plus this draft is mainly for Gao Yuanshang's election, Song Anle is one of them after all, and has a face that captivates the country and the city, and has a fairy-like temperament, if he is really chosen by Gao Yuanshang, then he will lose the opportunity to have her forever.
So Gao Yuanyi wanted to take this opportunity to express his love for Song Anle, no matter whether she could accept it or not, at least he had to let her be prepared first, so he said: "What if I say that as long as it's about you, I don't mind?" ”
Song Anle looked at Gao Yuanyi with a melancholy face, she fell into a dilemma again, Gao Yuanyi's true feelings were the heat she could feel, and it was also any irresistible tenderness, but she fell into it again and again, but she struggled out again and again, including this time as before, she wanted to sink, but she was cruelly put herself out of the matter.
Song Anle said coldly: "The second prince and An Le have known each other for less than a few months, and there are only a handful of opportunities to meet, why is An Le worthy of the second prince's affection." ”
Gao Yuanyi looked serious, but he also said inexplicably coldly: "I like someone, not because I have met a few times, because one glance is enough, and loving someone is not because of the length of acquaintance, but it is enough to have a momentary feeling." ”
Song Anle struggled in the depths of her heart, hovering on the edge of difficulty, she didn't know her own sinking and cruelty, which side would win, but no matter which side won, she believed that it would not be the ultimate winner, so she was always at a critical moment, disturbed by some disturbing emotions.
Gao Yuanyi saw that she was silent for a long time, and he didn't want to push her away because he was too embarrassed for her, so he said easily and easily: "You don't have to answer me in a hurry, I can give you time, as for the pronoun of King Yong, I can also borrow it to dock with you temporarily, I hope that when it really sets sail, the person who lifted the anchor will still be you." ”
Gao Yuanyi compared his pronoun of King Yong to a sailing ship, and under Song Anle's unintentional mention, he was happy to suspend himself at her first, hoping that he would set sail again, that is, when he could really become King Yong, the person he married was still Song Anle, who first broke the name of King Yong.
Song Anle couldn't give an answer, not because she didn't have an answer in her heart, but because they left plenty of space for each other, as well as a long-term career, maybe if the opportunity allows, she will follow Gao Yuanyi without hesitation, but if fate makes people, she can only resign herself to fate.
"I'll keep this answer for you on the day you return my freedom." Song Anle's solemn tone made Gao Yuanyi have a high-spirited impulse, he not only saw hope, but also tried to fulfill his promise that he would work hard to return Song Anle's freedom, because he was looking forward to the answer in her heart.
"It's a deal." Gao Yuanyi raised a powerful palm, which also came with a confident momentum;
