In the courtyard, a purple figure suddenly came out of the room and walked outside, a trace of doubt flashed on her beautiful face, and at this time, a man in a strong suit in the aisle suddenly appeared, looking at the purple figure in a hurry, he frowned slightly, took a few steps forward, and whispered: "Why are you here?" ”

Hearing this voice, Ziying suddenly stopped, looking at the man in front of her, she looked stunned for a moment, a trace of strangeness flashed on her face, and she said indifferently: "Where did he go?" ”

Gu Yaocheng looked at the room behind him, it was dark, it seemed that the person was no longer there, he smiled and said, "Naturally, he is going where he should go." ”

Ziying frowned slightly, looking at the man in front of her, her expression tightened, and she said coldly, "You mean he went to find Yun Yan?" With that, she waved her hand, glared at the man in front of her, and continued, "How could he! ”

"What's not to do, can't you see it, this is his decision! I've never seen him like this, on the verge of hesitation, terrified of losing her. Gu Yaocheng said in a low voice, his eyes fell on the woman in front of him, a trace of sadness flashed between his eyebrows, and he muttered, "Wanqing, it's been so many years, we ......"

Hearing those two words, Ziying's face changed, and she snorted coldly: "His decision doesn't mean it's right, I can't let him make mistakes, and you, no matter how young you are, one day I will kill you." With that, she walked straight ahead, past the Lonely City.

The moment he passed by, Gu Yaocheng only felt like a cold wind passing through, that awe-inspiring killing intent, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and his eyes were slightly closed, did she hate him like this? He thought that time would erase all the wounds, but he seemed to be wrong.

The footsteps behind him became farther and farther away, Gu Yaocheng suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes regained calm, he sighed and said: "He drank all night last night, and after returning from the palace today, he was locked in a room alone and drank alcohol, I have never seen him so lost and depressed, except for the suffocating despair of his small body when his mother died." Wanqing, revenge can never be a reason for people to live, because hatred is cold and ruthless, and when it erodes the enemy, it is actually constantly corroding itself, but it is the result of both defeats, even if it is victorious, the rest of life is just a walking corpse life, that is just continuing to wander in the dark, and there will never be a way back. However, I think that after all, people have to find a reason to live to prove that they are alive in this life, just like the dappled rain and dew in the sun, which brings hope, and I am glad that he has found it, so why should we interfere? What's more, with his character, I'm afraid that no one can stop his decision! ”

The purple figure in front of her suddenly stopped, and she stood there, a look of astonishment flashed on her beautiful face, did she want to find a reason to let herself live? Like dappled rain and dew in the sun, hope? So he found it? She stroked her head, did the little boy who knelt in front of the palace gate on a rainy day and cry finally have a reason to let himself live? Isn't it just about revenge? Instead, he wanted to protect, protect the woman he loved so much.

Suxuan Court

Mu Jingnan closed his eyes, a trace of melancholy appeared on his face, as if he had thought of something, he whispered: "My mother is actually not a palace maid, she is Mu Yangtian's concubine - Concubine Yu, I also had the happiest time of my life, at that time my father and mother loved, all the halos fell on me, Master Taifu said that I was talented, but I can be unified, my mother is also proud of me, and I thought I was the one who held the moon with stars......"

Hearing this, Yun Yan frowned, and she glanced at him in surprise, he ...... Suddenly thinking of something, she interrupted him and said, "What are you doing with me doing this?" ”

Mu Jingnan's voice paused, his eyes were still closed, as if he hadn't heard, he continued: "From the discussion of the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, I know that everyone is no longer envious that I am the emperor's favorite son, and my mother is the emperor's favorite woman, and I also thought that my life had set a trajectory, that is, inheriting the great unification and rejuvenating Dongyue. But that rainy night, everything changed, everything changed, I never thought that one day my mother would close her eyes forever in my arms, and the one who killed my mother was my most respected father and the man my mother loved the most. His voice grew colder and quieter, and the aura emanating from his body was like a purgatory ghost.

Yun Yan opened her mouth, looking at the man not far away, she whispered: "Your mother concubine ......" Her clenched hand loosened slightly, as if, she could feel the cold silence around him slowly spreading, was his mother also killed by his father? So at that time, at the birthday banquet of the Prime Minister's Mansion, his eyes looked at Mu Yangtian so indifferently, even as if he was looking at an enemy.

"My mother, Dugu Jinyu, she is a gentle and gentle woman, I was naughty when I was young, I don't like to read, she is not as strict as other palace concubines who have princes, let me study hard, she let me play, she said that my happiness is the most important thing, if possible, she would rather my life be dull. At that time, I didn't understand, didn't everyone say that after becoming the prince, he would be able to sit on the world? Why would the mother concubine say this, but I can see that the mother concubine is alone in the palace, and there are three thousand beauties in the harem, and the mother concubine can only wait for her beloved to be fortunate like other palace concubines. My father once said that only one scoop is taken for 3,000 weak waters, but the mother concubine is just one scoop of 3,000 weak waters. When we all thought we were happy, the mother concubine had already fallen into the whirlpool of secret fighting in the deep palace. The queen, the palace concubines are jealous of her, and the palace concubine who has a prince regards me and my mother as a thorn in the side, because I am still young, and those conspiracies naturally all invade the mother concubine, she is alone in the palace, and the reason why she can stand tall is only the favor of her father, but if the man she loves most abandons her one day, she will be left with no return. Speaking of this, Mu Jingnan's voice stopped abruptly, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at his hands, as if he was stuck in a long memory.

Is there a battle in the inner palace? Yun Yan's heart sank, she looked at Mu Jingnan, in the dark night, she seemed to be able to see the hidden pain in his eyes, this was the first time, she saw him with such a sad expression, is this him?

"I will never forget, that rainy night, I held my mother, the cold rain hit my mother's body, her white fingers grabbed me tightly, the blood stained the gorgeous palace clothes, her miserable face was full of poignant smiles, she could never have imagined that the person who killed her in the end was the man, the man who had sworn an alliance with her. She took my hand and opened her mouth to say something, but she could not even speak to me at the last word, for her tongue had already been cut off by the wicked women. I will never forget the cold and merciless eyes he looked at the corpse of his mother, he killed his mother, and he did not feel a trace of sadness, but hugged other women and left. The despair in the eyes of the concubine is like ice and snow that will not melt for a long time, and I will never forget her eyes. At that time, I swore that one day I would get it back from them, and get back what they owed me and my mother. Mu Jingnan looked ahead, his hands clenched suddenly, and there was a thick hatred in his low voice.

Yun Yan looked at Mu Jingnan, it turned out that not only she had experienced this, but she would never forget when her mother died, she felt that her mother's body was slowly getting cold, she wanted to save it, but God didn't give her any chance, how could she fight with the sky when she was so small, but when she grew up and became strong, she never had a chance again.

"For what? is a deep love, why would the last man kill her so ruthlessly? Yun Yan said in a low voice.

Mu Jingnan suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky, this boundless night was endless, and he had never prayed for light since he fell into the darkness.

"What man can tolerate his woman fornicating with others, and besides, he is the Ninety-Five! The queen slandered the mother concubine for fornicating with others, and at that time, the Gao family happened to catch a person, that person was the mother concubine's childhood sweetheart, he said that he and the mother concubine had known each other since childhood, and they were in love, and even before entering the palace, they had already been secretly married, and even said that I was not the emperor's son. The royal blood is not pure, what a shame it should be, the queen mother ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, and there was the assistance of the Gao family, at that time, the queen and her gang were tortured in advance and directly cut off the tongue of the concubine. How can a person who cannot speak argue with others? And those people are even more forced by my life, the always gentle mother concubine is afraid that something will happen to me, at the critical moment, she broke free from those people, crazy towards Jintian Palace, at that time, because the mother concubine was not there, I looked for her everywhere. It was raining in the sky, and I was in a panic like never before. When I found the concubine, Mu Yangtian held the sword and stabbed it into the concubine's chest. I shouted to my father, my mother is going to die, but he only gave me one sentence, there is more than enough to die, before leaving, he looked at me and slowly spit out those two words, evil seed! Mu Jingnan's voice also trembled, and the coldness in his eyes became more and more vigorous.

Taking a deep breath, Yun Yan suddenly smiled bitterly, so, she knew all this, Concubine Yu was suspected of fornicating with others. He is the son of Concubine Yu, and he is suspected of being a wild seed, so later Mu Yangtian ignored him, and even disgusted him, he was afraid that he would have a bad time in the palace all these years, his mother was killed by his father, and he was even said by his father to be a wild seed, and he had to shout that the queen who killed his mother's enemy was his mother, and shouted that the son of his mother's enemy was his brother, how much endurance should it take. It's no wonder that he wants to take revenge on Mu Qingyuan and the Gao family. I heard earlier that there are many treacherous things in the deep palace, and most of them are for the position of the crown prince, so I don't want to be so miserable.

"What is your relationship with Leng Xue?" Yun Yan suddenly said, she never imagined that Leng Xue, who had been by her side for so many years, would betray her one day!

Mu Jingnan looked not far away and said in a low voice: "Ji Lengxue, no, to be precise, he should be called Dugu Lengxue, he is the son of the elder brother of the concubine." Ningcheng Dugu family, I think you should have heard of it, although the Dugu family has been broken for many years, but I am afraid that there are still people talking about that incident back then. ”

Hearing this, Yun Yan suddenly sat up, Xu was too excited, and touched the wound on her left arm, "Hiss-" She throbbed in pain, and her face was full of solemnity. When she heard the name of Mu Jingnan's mother just now, she was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it. But the Dugu family, she has some impressions, once she has also been to Ningcheng, over there she knows a lot of things about the Dugu family, the Dugu family is also the same as the grandfather's family, accused of rebellion, and it seems that it is also a member of the Gao family, at that time, the Gao family was able to rise to prominence precisely because of the report of the Dugu family, and all the men of the Dugu family were beheaded, and the women were all enslaved in the harem. But these are all things from the previous dynasty, and Mu Yangtian was not the emperor at that time. This happened more than 20 years ago, at that time, the lonely Jinyu was not very old, who would have thought that she would fall in love with the enemy after the worst, and she would give up her hatred after the worst, but the result was like this, which can't help but make people sigh. In this way, it is no wonder that Leng Xue is so sensitive to the royal family, once she also saw the inexplicable hatred on his face, and now everything makes sense.

Mu Jingnan listened to the sound of Yun Yan's mouth moaning, his body moved slightly, but looking at her contemplative face, he sat down again and said indifferently: "He didn't tell me about you, and he only found out about my deal with you later." ”

Yun Yan glanced at Mu Jingnan in surprise, Ji Lengxue didn't tell him? How could it be! She chuckled, "In that case, why did you choose me?" We didn't know each other before, but you can recognize me when the palace stole the cardamom. I think I am secretly in the rivers and lakes, very few people can know my identity, I still remember when we met in Wenxianglou, we didn't agree, you also said that Leng Xue didn't tell you my true identity, how did you know Lu Dao, and you dare to use someone like me who you are not sure about? "Obviously she has nothing to do with him, why did he find her at that time and trade with her. She couldn't figure it out.

Mu Jingnan's gaze suddenly fell on Yun Yan, and his low voice came again, "I remember that I told you that it is not the first time you and I have met in Wenxiang Building. When I was a child, I heard from my mother that a good sister of hers had a daughter who was born with a birthmark on the left side of her face, so she was bullied, and she told me that she wanted me to be her friend, and she said that they were all miserable people. I remember, on the day you returned to Liangdu, Mu Qingyuan's horse collided with your carriage, and I was standing on the street at that time, watching a carriage drive by, the breeze blew the sedan curtain, and sitting inside was a woman with a birthmark on her left face, her expression was indifferent, and her eyes seemed to be able to see through the world. I never thought those eyes were carved into my soul. And at that time, I knew that the third daughter of Lu Dao Yunxiang was coming back, and your description was the same as what my mother said when I was a child, so I recognized you. When the Wind Forest Villa had a confrontation, looking at your eyes, I knew that you were Yunyan. If you dare to cooperate with you, I believe that the people who can make Linglong Pavilion prosperous naturally have some ability, and I am confident that you can do this well. Looking at the calm appearance of the woman in front of him, he never thought that such a pair of eyes would make him unforgettable.

Because of the eyes? Yun Yan stroked her head, recalling that time in the streets and alleys, she was still the seventh son, and he had said similar things to her. She never thought that these eyes, which she thought were wise, would betray her one day! Therefore, he deliberately approached her because he thought she could be a good chess piece.

"Heh, because you know that I am the Seventh Son, and I know that I am Yunyan, and I want Tianxiang Cardamom and want to avenge my grandfather's family, so you use this as a bargaining chip to blackmail me and let me cooperate with you and marry Mu Qingyuan. But if my guess is right, if it is not enough for me to marry Mu Qingyuan, even if there are rumors in the imperial capital, I am afraid that most of them are pointing to me, and Mu Qingyuan can put it aside. So you deliberately approached me in the hope that I would fall in love with you. When Mu Qingyuan thought he could marry me, you snatched his love and made him suffer a big blow, for you, maybe I can stand up and say to the world that Mu Qingyuan forcibly wanted to marry me. Then you announce the world, the four princes robbed his brother and daughter-in-law, making him scolded by the world, and Mu Yangtian was disappointed in him. And I will also be a victim in this battle, either killed by Mu Qingyuan or killed by Mu Yangtian. Because they won't allow such a woman to live, am I right? Yun Yan took a deep breath and said in a low voice, Mu Yangtian's attitude in the palace yesterday explained everything. It turned out that at the end of the day, everything was finally connected, but she was resisting in her heart, because this was not the result she wanted, but what did she want. There was a faint pain in her heart, and it turned out that talking like this could also affect her heart.

Mu Jingnan raised his eyes and looked at the woman on the bed, her cleverness made him have nothing to hide, he could feel the low trembling sound in her voice, he suddenly closed his eyes, and whispered: "Yes!" At the beginning, when I said I liked you, I really wanted you to hesitate, and your hesitation would distract Mu Qingyuan, because what I couldn't get was the best after all, Mu Qingyuan would definitely go crazy and want you, the more he wanted you, the easier it was for him to make mistakes. Mu Yangtian is not only Mu Qingyuan's son, he naturally can't tolerate such a shame, just like me, if it weren't for the fear of the scandal being exposed, I am afraid that he would have killed me a long time ago. And I also want Mu Qingyuan to taste what I have experienced, let Gao Yueli, and let the Gao family taste the end of being rejected by Mu Yangtian. It can be regarded as a concubine and revenge for the Dugu family. ”

Be! Yun Yan smiled bitterly, she leaned on the bed rail, he answered so simply, she laughed at herself and said: "Sure enough, love in the world is fake, I also thought that I would not be tempted by any man, but I always want to see through the secret behind that man's love, and I never thought that one day I would be in the tenderness he gave." Suddenly, she looked at Mu Jingnan and said with a chuckle, "Then why do you want to save me when you reach the bottom of the road?" Is it sympathy for me? Sympathize with me, who is a person with a rough life like you? ”

Mu Jingnan shook his head slightly, a hint of mockery appeared on his handsome face, "I also thought that I could be cold and ruthless, but I never thought that one day because of a woman's sad eyes, my heart would be so painful, and I had an urge to protect her in my heart." But from the very beginning I gave her a game, and she fell in love with my game, and I had to continue. But along the way, I fell more and more, and when I reached the very end, I couldn't tell whether she was in my bureau or I was in her game. ”

Hearing this, Yun Yan lowered her eyes, her face was full of tiredness, and she whispered, "But you still chose to use me in the end, Mu Jingnan, I'm so tired, I can't believe your words anymore." ”

"I know that I took advantage of you, and you should hate me. I also know that it is too late to tell you this now, but I hope that I will only be Mu Jingnan in front of you in the future. Mu Jingnan looked at the side face of the woman on the bed, if he had known that he would love her so much, how could he not lie to her, did he suffer the consequences of his own evil? Thinking of this, he stood up, looked at Yun Yan, and whispered, "You have a good rest." ”

There was a sudden silence in the room, and the two men were silent. The woman on the bed stared blankly ahead and didn't say a word.

Taking a deep breath, Mu Jingnan turned around, and after saying so much, he felt a lot more relaxed, he stroked his head, this head really hurts. He walked slowly outside.

Listening to the footsteps in the room gradually leaving, Yun Yan suddenly turned her head, looking at the table, a wry smile appeared on her lips, he was gone, he was gone. She slowly closed her eyes, really tired.

Inside the courtyard, Bi Shui walked over with a lantern, looking at the person who came out of Yunyan's room, she immediately said vigilantly: "What person?!" ”

However, by the light of the lantern, Bi Shui saw the appearance of the person who came clearly, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she exclaimed, "Sixth Prince?!" However, as soon as she shouted this, she immediately covered her nose, and the smell of alcohol was so strong.

Mu Jingnan acted as if he hadn't heard anything, as if he couldn't hold anything in his eyes, and walked directly to the front.

Looking at Mu Jingnan like this, Bi Shui frowned, and couldn't help but look at the clothes on his body, night clothes? Even if you come here so late, you won't have to be so sneaky, and you should wear a nightdress. And when did his face become so embarrassed, the stubble was all over the place, and a pair of eyes could see bloodshot under this light, as if he hadn't rested for a long time, and his whole body exuded a cold aura, is this the handsome and dignified sixth prince? Could it be that he quarreled with the young lady again?

After a moment of deep groaning, Bi Shui suddenly remembered one thing in her mind, she saw an amazing person outside today, although it was just a glance, not sure, but if that person really came to Liangdu, I am afraid that things will definitely not be so simple, after all, it is a person who makes the young lady taboo.
