Indeed, this cousin who grew up in the palace is afraid that he is not as deep as his thoughts.

Growing up in Prince Gong's Mansion since he was a child, what he learned is to look at people's faces and do things with eyes, which is what a subordinate should do.

As for Yicui Building, there are thousands of eyes staring at him in the building, although he is protected by Mo Yixiao and Mo Yixiao, but he always has to learn to deal with it alone.

Yes, learn to grow up alone.

When he was in Prince Gong's mansion, he was just a dull baby who didn't like to talk and didn't smile, but he didn't say anything in Yicui Building, but he should do it, practice dancing, literacy, reading, and dealing with people and even guests in the building, Mo Lian is no longer the original Mo Lian.

But the cold is still the same cold as at the beginning, with warm eyebrows and eyes, and he is still a handsome young man when he first met.

Mo Lian sighed, planning to sleep for a while, and the others were planning tomorrow morning.

At that time, Nalan Zichen at the other end guarded the most exquisite water pavilion in the entire imperial city, and stopped there alone to be the loneliest king.

The place where the recital was supposed to be in the Qinling Palace, but he stayed away from the main hall and came to the Water Pavilion.

The reason for this is none other than for that person.

The Water Pavilion used to be the residence of Nalan Zichen's own brother Nalan Ziting, but Nalan Ziting was glued to his brother's side all the year round, and his brother's long-term meal ticket was almost all in his brother's Lanyue Palace, almost making people forget that his bedroom was in the Water Pavilion.

In fact, Nalan Ziting himself is extremely disgusted with the Water Pavilion, the Water Pavilion is the most exquisite building in the Imperial City, elegant and light, but it also seems a little feminine anyway, if it is suitable for the princess to live, it will be sarcastic to live in Nalan Ziting.

The sound of the door opening was crisp, and the person who came in was dressed in black, and between his eyebrows and eyes was indescribably beautiful, and such a dazzling beauty even illuminated the entire dark night.

"Brother Qingcheng."

The young man's voice was crisp, and his black phoenix eyes were clean and clean.

Have you ever seen the joy of an emperor?

That kind of pure joy burst out in Nalan Zichen's eyes, Yueli had never seen such pure joy in Nalan Zichen. Or Yueli has long forgotten how happy Nalan Zichen looked.

Such a splendid appearance seems to recall his youth, when the wayward little ghost head was still by his side.

In just an instant, the young man withdrew the joy on his face, and the pleasure disappeared in his black eyes, and there was no trace of light.

The voice of the young son of heaven was faint, and he called softly, "Yueli." ”

The noble Yuejia Maiden's body trembled, and her voice even trembled a little, "How did you find out?" ”

"I'll know as soon as you open your mouth." Nalan Zichen still had a faint smile in his eyes, his voice was always so gentle, maybe he was facing a face that was exactly the same as his brother.

It is precisely because of this that he softened his face.

Looking at Yueli's face in disbelief, Nalan Zichen continued, "If Yueli is really still here, he won't call me brother, the moment I stay away from Snow City, I am his imperial brother, the imperial brother." ”

He got up and walked to Yueli's side, stretched out his hand to compare, and said with a smile, "Yue was brought up by me, and when he left, it was not as close to my shoulders, and your tall figure is only half a head shorter than me, but it is only two years, I thought that Yue would not grow so big." ”

Calmly saying this, the curvature of the blink is just right, it seems that his younger brother is still in front of his eyes, as long as he opens his eyes, he can see it.

"Xiaoli." He called the moon like this, there is no difference between monarchs and ministers, and with a faint voice, it seems that he is still the best playmate in his childhood.

Yueli's gaze flickered slightly, it was true that she hadn't heard this name from Nalan Zichen's mouth for too long.

Nalan Zichen lowered his head slightly, Yueli seemed to be able to see the shallow arc of the corners of his mouth, he raised his head gently, there was always a soft smile on his face, and even his voice was warm, as if he was really facing his younger brother.

He said to her, "Xiaoli, why do you like me? ”

Why?

Yueli smiled, her smile was still a little sarcastic, and she said to Nalan Zichen, "Why, Your Majesty, you actually asked me why?" ”

"The boy who grew up with his childhood sweetheart, he was told that he would be his wife from an early age, this boy is gentle, elegant, and his smile is always as warm as the sun. Such a boy, he loves his younger brother, he is loyal to the motherland, this boy, he is resourceful and responsible. Majesty, how do you say that such a boy makes Yueli not love? ”

As if shocked by Yueli's words, Nalan Zichen's handsome face was still full of surprise, and after a while, the slightest surprise regrouped into Nalan Zichen's dark eyes.

Then he seemed to smile, and those dark eyes seemed to soften, and he touched Yueli's head and said softly to Yueli, "Thank you." ”

Thank you for your love for me, thank you for doing a qiē for me.

Thank you.

The meaning of a simple thank you is too profound, and the light in Nalan Zichen's eyes flickered, and it was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

"Don't you blame me? I've always been against him suppressing him, and I've even dressed up like this to you. ”

Yueli's appearance seemed to be a little hesitant, not like the appearance of the proud Yuejia family daughter before.

"Why should I blame you?" Nalan Zichen asked rhetorically, he gently touched Yueli's face, "I thank you very much, Xiaoli, I thank you very much." ”

The way he stared at Yueli's face was almost mesmerized.

"Such a face, I have dreamed of it a thousand times in my dreams, such eyebrows, as light as a crescent moon, such beautiful eyes, brilliance, and a haunting black hair, I want to touch him, I want to touch his face."

Nalan Zichen stretched out his hand and gently stroked Yueli's face.

His eyes were dark and clear, and Yueli seemed to find the shadow of the eldest son of the emperor who was smiling brightly many years ago from his face.

Nalan Zichen's voice was still so gentle, "This flower in the mirror, the moon in the water was finally held in the palm of my hand today." ”

The voice of the young man was full of satisfaction.

Yueli felt that her eyes were a little moist, she felt that she couldn't say anything, it was true that she had won the Nalan Ziting time, but she still lost completely.

Her voice was a little dry, "Your Majesty, Zichen, you're right. You've been working hard and you're a good brother. ”

Nalan Zichen shook his head, his expression seemed to sigh a little, and he said, "Xiao Li is wrong with you, I am not a good brother, and Nalan Zichen has never been a good brother." ”

Almost perfect brother, he has never been meticulous to his younger brother, no one has ever denied his kindness to his younger brother for so many years, and everyone sees how Nalan Ziting is. But such a man said to her, "I am not a good brother."

Yueli felt that this was almost the biggest irony, and he attacked him overwhelmingly, making himself almost annihilated by ridicule.

"Your Majesty is too modest, if you are not a good brother, Yueli really can't find anyone who can afford the title of brother."

Her voice was ironic, as smart as Nalan Zichen could naturally hear it.

"Heh, everyone says that I love him and spoil him, and that I will be arrogant and domineering as a moon pet, but which of you can understand?"

For so many years, Nalan Zichen has always asked himself in his heart, is he really good to the moon?

kept pampering him and wishing him happiness, but when his young brother told him to participate in the mission with him, what slipped through his heart?

It is easy.

When he said words of blocking, his words were naturally beautiful, and the worry on his face was real.

But his heart was relaxed, and he almost breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had let go of a huge burden.

Yes, that's his baggage.

Everyone praised Nalan Zichen as a good brother, and Nalan Ziting even worshipped his brother as a god, but no one knew that Nalan Zichen was just a burden, and Nalan Ziting naturally didn't know such a cruel fact.

Yueli once questioned Nalan Zichen, and she said, "Nalan Ziting ruined your childhood, why are you still so good to him?" ”

Why?!

Yueli's incomprehension was once dismissed by Nalan Zichen's explanation that he was my younger brother, and the answer couldn't be simpler, of course, this is also impeccable.

"Why are you telling me this?"

Yueli breathed a sigh of relief, after all these years in the moon, no, in the hearts of the people of the Ice Country, Nalan Zichen is a perfect being, and he is her only longing for many years, so when she first saw the secret thing in his heart, she couldn't help but panic.

"Xiaoli, I treat you as my confidant."

I treat you as my confidant.

In a word, the girl's love is drawn simply, confidant, how heavy the meaning of this word is.

When it comes to intimacy, Yueli asked herself if she couldn't compare the relationship between her twin brother and Nalan Zichen.

But now Nalan Zichen said to her, I will be my confidant when you are.

Yueli suddenly felt angry and funny, and a little sad.

"Why?"

Nalan Zichen smiled, and her gentle smile made people feel like bathing in the spring breeze at any time.

"I hate him, I hate my brother. Do you believe what I said? ”

You ask me why I have to be so nice to Nalan Ziting, obviously he took away all my happiness?

I said he was my brother, so I had nothing to say about his kindness.

But how do you know that I don't hate him?

I hate him.

Nalan Zichen hated Nalan Ziting.

Yueli thought about it and was relieved, even she could tell the reason why Nalan Zichen hated his brother, so what did this qiē matter?

She always dreamed repeatedly of Nalan Zichen's bright smile back then, and how happy Nalan Zichen was back then.

The status is supreme, and he enjoys the love of his parents.

Everyone said that Nalan Ziting enjoyed the love of his brother and how happy he was, but Nalan Ziting's qiē was not worth mentioning in Yueli's eyes, because Nalan Zichen was a hundred times happier than him back then.

It is precisely because it has been gained that it is more painful when it is lost.

Some say he is not afraid of losing.

It's not that these people are strong, but that they haven't had it from the beginning, and what they haven't felt is really that important to gain and lose?

Therefore, after all these years, Yueli has always wondered how much Nalan Zichen's heart hurts, how painful?

Beloved parents, beautiful motherland, and even an infinitely better future were lost overnight.

What's left? It's full of devastation and a younger brother waiting to be fed.

Is it a gift?

Is this brother a gift from God?

Obviously, it is the misfortune that has been obtained by sacrificing a qiē.

When Nalan Ziting was a little baby, the physiognomic of the Yue family used to look at his face.

The physiognomic said that he killed heavily in his life, was widowed, caused harm to others and hurt himself, and could not die well.

However, Nalan Zichen blindly admitted it.

He treats his little brother so gently, and it is difficult for Yueli to understand his feelings, is her Highness so detached?

Wouldn't he be upset?

Obviously how happy he was at the beginning.

It is precisely because of what he had, and precisely because of how happy he was in the past, that he will tear his heart when he loses it.

However, Yueli didn't remember that Nalan Zichen had cried, and although the boy with a bright smile put away his smile, he was still gentle.

The gentle smile is even warmer when facing his younger brother.

"Actually, Yue also understands that after so many years of love and hate, true feelings and false intentions, can't you see clearly at all?"

Nalan Zichen's eyes were deep, as if he had seen a deep, far place.

"What do you want to say?"

This time Yueli used honorifics, why didn't she understand what Nalan Zichen wanted to say?
