The night, the night is as cool as water, and the cold gaze pours on the ground through the branches of the maple tree.

The corners of Shen Yunxi's lips outlined a soft smile, and she walked out of the Linhua Hall briskly, but seeing that there was no one in front of the palace gate, her steps suddenly paused, and the smile froze on her lips.

She looked left and right, but still didn't see the white figure, and couldn't help but be suspicious.

Could it be that the house went back beforehand?

Just thinking about it, a guard on duty in front of the palace gate walked up to Shen Yunxi and arched his hand and said, "Princess Rui." ”

Shen Yunxi turned his head slightly and looked at him inquiringly.

The guard took out an envelope from his sleeve, handed it to Shen Yunxi, and said respectfully: "Princess Rui, this is handed over to you by King Anjun before leaving. ”

"Thank you." Shen Yunxi took the envelope and thanked him.

The guard bowed politely and turned back to his post.

Shen Yunxi opened the envelope and unfolded the thin paper in the letter, the handwriting was smooth, but the pen was a little unstable, showing that he was in an extremely uneasy mood when he was in these words.

Xiao Yihan said in the letter that there was an emergency in the house, so he would go back to the house first. And sorry for not being able to accompany her to see the ditch, and asked her not to blame him.

Shen Yunxi twisted his eyebrows slightly, put away the tissue paper, and put it back in the envelope. Then he looked up at the bright moon in the night sky and sighed silently.

The reason why she forced Su Lianrong so much must explain the 'truth' of the matter in front of Feng Linye before this evening, so that she could go to see the river lantern with Xiao Yihan after she got out of this prison.

A few days ago, on the palace road, he asked her to celebrate the Midyear Festival with her, and she remembered it clearly.

When she went to Zhong'an Palace that night, time was pressing, and she didn't tell him in detail that she would come out on this day and go to see the river lantern with him. When she got out of the prison just now, she was still thinking about it, but she didn't expect to see him in front of this palace.

I thought that there was no Lang Fei with a hard conscience, but I didn't expect that when she came out, he was already gone.

And, it's still walking so silently.

In his heart, a burst of loss for no reason, Shen Yunxi put away the envelope, lowered his head slightly and walked into the night with the moonlight.

However, if Shen Yunxi turned around, he could look at the lonely figure under the shadow of the tree in the corner.

Xiao Yihan stared at Shen Yunxi's back, his eyes were deep. The hand propped up on the maple tree couldn't help but clench. He wanted to go back forever, but after walking some distance, he was reluctant and unbearable. So he turned back and came back.

After thinking about it, I wrote this letter. I just don't want her to be unhappy, but at the moment, she is still in a bad mood.

Feet, the moment she turned around, almost impulsively stepped out.

He endured it for a while, and finally endured it.

At the moment, too.

Xiao Yihan lowered his head slightly and sighed slightly, perhaps, after all, he thought too much.

Lift up your feet and turn away. However, at the moment when he turned around, a white figure suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of him, blocking his way.

Xiao Yihan was startled, raised his head, and crashed into a pair of deep and bottomless eyes.

"You-" Looking at Shen Yunxi's slightly angry face, Xiao Yihan was stunned, and glanced back at the direction she left just now, wasn't she still over there just now?

In just a moment, she appeared in front of him, and her light skills were really not to be underestimated.

"What are you? I found out that you didn't leave at all, so your heart is empty? Shen Yunxi stared at Xiao Yihan and said mockingly.

Xiao Yihan raised his head and lowered his eyes to stare at Shen Yunxi, wanting to speak again and again.

"Xiao, Yi, Han." Shen Yunxi was very angry, and a loud shout caused the guards in front of the hall to frequently look sideways in the direction where they were.

"Yunxi, don't be angry, you ......" Xiao Yihan immediately said comfortingly, but before he finished speaking, Shen Yunxi intercepted his words, she said, "I don't want to be angry, it's okay!" …… What do you mean by this, you tell? Why do you want to lie to me when there is nothing in the house?! ”

Xu was really angry at Xiao Yihan's deception, Shen Yunxi said, took out the envelope in his sleeve and slammed it on Xiao Yihan's body.

Although the thin envelope has no weight, it will not feel a little bit when it is smashed on Xiao Yihan's body. But at this moment, Xiao Yihan's heart is in pain.

It hurts!

It's just that his behavior made her sad. He'd known her for so long, he'd never seen her so angry, and tonight was the first move.

He didn't want to see her angry and sad. But now, it was he who broke his hopes.

He's really damned.

Xiao Yihan slammed his fist on the trunk of the tree beside him, with a loud bang, the force was so strong that it squeaked and shook, and pieces of maple leaves fell with the sound, and a few fell on Shen Yunxi's shoulders, but she didn't pick it up, still looking at Xiao Yihan coldly.

The red blood flowed down the back of Xiao Yihan's hand, and dripped to the ground at the end.

A small voice came into the ears of the two of them in this silent night, and Shen Yunxi didn't look away, as if he didn't see Xiao Yihan's almost self-harming behavior.

"Say!"

Shen Yunxi gritted his teeth and said coldly.

Xiao Yihan turned his head, and in her cold eyes, he clearly saw a trace of hurt. Then, he said: "Yunxi, you are now Princess Rui, and I am the King of Anjun, so you can't get too close." …… Do you understand? ”

The tone, heavy.

Listen to it in your heart, and panic.

In an instant, the coldness in Shen Yunxi's eyes dissipated and turned to surprise.

When he turned his head to see him in the shadows, while waiting for him to answer her question, Shen Yunxi never once guessed in his heart the reason for his move.

She thought about it a lot, but she didn't expect him to say that.

Yes, listening to him, he was stunned.

Xiao Yihan's words were very simple, but even if they were simple, Shen Yunxi could understand and hear the meaning of the words clearly.

From the time I saw him in the back garden, to the time I asked her to watch the river lantern together, to the last time I met him in Zhong'an Palace, everything he did to her and his friendship with her, she saw it in her eyes and remembered it in her heart.

However, he never expected that one day, he would alienate her because of the identities of the two of them.

His concern for her was not unclear. But she didn't want to be like him, obviously there was a person and a heart, but she wanted to hide under this shadow to avoid her, and forcibly put away her concern.

She doesn't want to see any of this!!

It can be said that she is selfish, and it can be said that she does not care about his feelings. She only wants the care, warmth and care he brings to him.

Shen Yunxi restrained the complicated emotions in his heart, glared at Xiao Yihan and said, "When you say that, are you discriminating against me for marrying another woman?" ”

Xiao Yihan was shocked, this ...... It didn't seem to be what he expected.

He was stunned, not knowing how to answer for a while. That's not what he meant, did he?

However, when he looked into her eyes again, he didn't see a trace of hurt, but his eyes were full of anticipation and nervousness.

She, is this worried that he will deny her?

This thought was still in his heart, and Xiao Yihan immediately shook his head and said to her, "No." That was not what I meant. ”

"Since it's not, then don't you think I'm your friend?" Shen Yunxi asked.

"Yes! Yes, definitely! ”

"Since it is, then do you want to accompany me to see the river lantern?!"

"Of course I want to accompany you!"

Hearing this affirmative answer, Shen Yunxi finally showed a shallow smile on his face, "You said this, don't regret it." It can't be like this again! ”

Shen Yunxi didn't say anything like this, but both of them understood it in their hearts, and they both knew it.

"Okay." Xiao Yihan nodded heavily, responding, with a firm expression.

That's it. There are some things that cannot be forced or avoided. As she says, let's just think of her as a friend.

Just stay by her side and watch over her! When she was the purest friend.

He wants to see her laugh and see her happy. That's all he wants.

As for identity, feelings, put it aside for the time being. He thought he could do a good job and not let himself fall into the point of no return.

It's just that some things are really not as simple as you think. Or maybe at this moment, he is just using this weak excuse to convince himself that he will not be in this dilemma anymore.

Listening to Xiao Yihan's words, Shen Yunxi smiled shallowly at the corner of his lips, and his eyes were filled with irrepressible excitement. It's just that when her eyes fell on the back of his injured hand, she immediately withdrew her smile, raised her eyes and glared at him fiercely, while taking out a white silk silk from her sleeve, while nagging him: "You were confused just now, right?" Since what kind of self-harm is done! ”

As he spoke, he tied up his handpack with the silk silk in his hand, perhaps her strength was a little stronger, Xiao Yihan couldn't help but take a cold breath, Shen Yunxi raised his head slightly, glanced at him, and said, "You deserve it!" It is self-inflicted, and you cannot live! ”

After speaking, Shen Yunxi continued to lower his head to bandage him, but this time the strength of his hand was much lighter.

Looking at her like this, Xiao Yihan couldn't help but chuckle, and even the pain on the back of his hand that he had noticed just now disappeared at this moment.

This feeling is so good, even if he is scolded by her like this, he is willing to eat it.

Shen Yunxi bandaged the wound, squeezed a beautiful bow on the silk, she stood up, raised her head and said to Xiao Yihan: "After you go back, take some medicine, don't get wet." ”

"Hmm." Xiao Yihan nodded lightly, and there was a little smile on the corner of his beautiful lips.

Shen Yunxi looked up at the moon above his head and said, "It's time, it's too late to go out of the palace to see the river lanterns." You say, "Are you the cause of this?" ”

She glared at Xiao Yihan, with a faint hint of threat in her words.

"Yes." Xiao Yihan nodded very honestly, and then said sharply: "However, in the palace, I can also take you to see the river lantern." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked out under the tree, Shen Yunxi raised his eyebrows and followed behind him.

But as soon as he walked a few steps, he saw Feng Linye who came out of the Linhua Palace, obviously, he also saw them, and was standing in front of the hall door looking at the direction where they were.

The eyes are light, slightly deep.
