Yao Duran raised her tearful eyes and looked at him: "I can endure the open and secret battles in the harem, but what I can't bear is that I am her wrong, but you want me to make compromises!" Okay, I can endure it once or twice, three times or five times. But today is just the beginning, what if it gets more and more intense in the future? Do you want me to compromise for the rest of my life? ”

Huo Jingcheng said in a deep voice: "Yao Duran, I will not be ambiguous when I should protect you!" But if it doesn't end there, you can get by for my sake, okay?! ”

She was speechless again. The two looked at each other for a long time, her eyes slowly moving downward, and finally stopped at his collarbone.

"Don't move." She whispered, then reached for the hem of his folded garment.

Huo Jingcheng suddenly took a step back, and at the same time spread the fan in front of his neck, and his face turned from anger to unnatural: "What's wrong?" ”

Seeing him like this, Yao Duran's heart ached, and it hurt to jump. She stubbornly took another step forward and continued to stretch out her hand. But he still chose to retreat without hesitation. There was a look of shame on his handsome face: "What the hell is going on?" ”

Yao Duran's beautiful eyes were cold, tears were drooping, and her voice trembled slightly: "Your Majesty hasn't come to my palace for five days, what is the reason for this?" ”

Huo Jingcheng had never seen her look like this, and his heart panicked, as if he was secretly facing the enemy, as if he felt that the things he cared about the most were passing little by little......

"Ahh

"Dye!!" When Huo Jingcheng saw it, he was very anxious, and immediately threw his fan at her, squatting down and hugging her: "Dye'er!" What's going on?! ”

Yao Duran's eyes lit up, and he suddenly shot out like a wind, grabbed his shirt tightly and pushed it away.

The next moment, both of them were stunned.

He was stunned and realized that he had fallen for her.

And she was stunned by the crimson kiss mark on his collarbone. At the time of the quarrel, only a faint edge was seen by her, and now the whole picture is revealed, and it is indeed the same.

It's just that? Which beautiful woman gave him the beautiful incense marks?

She stared at his collarbone, which was pink and smeared. She looked at it and suddenly felt a little unbearable. The kiss mark, like a humiliating slap in the face, was also a slap in the face that shocked her, and it was silently shouting at her.

Wake up! This man is not yours! It's never just you!

Suddenly, she burst into tears.

Huo Jingcheng came back to his senses, overwhelmed by her overflowing tears. He didn't dare to look at her again, so he let go of her and got up, straightened his clothes, and was a dignified king, but at this time he was at a loss to leave, stay, and speechless.

Yao Duran stood up slowly, stared straight at him with a pair of hazy teary eyes, and said in a slightly choked voice: "No wonder Your Majesty hasn't been to the Wanton Palace for five days, no wonder Your Majesty suddenly doesn't leave the fan, no wonder Your Majesty has avoided it again and again, is it afraid that the concubines will see it?" Why should Your Majesty do this? You are a king, I am a concubine, can I still control your head? You can do whatever you want. ”

After that, he lowered his beautiful eyes and slowly knelt on the ground: "The concubine is tired, and the concubine sends your majesty to you." ”

He finally spoke, but his voice was dumb and difficult: "Dye'er, I ......"

She interrupted him: "Your Majesty, go get busy, the concubine will go to the side hall to see Shuang'er." As he spoke, he got up and walked away from his side without squinting.

Separated by a wall, tears fell like rain outside the hall, and there was a deep sigh inside the hall.

......

Yao Duran didn't really go to the side hall, where could she go with red and swollen eyes? So she went alone to the watering pavilion, and poured it away, and wanted to bring ten thousand waters, and douse all the parting in the world?

She sat alone until the night, slowly looking at the surface of the lake pouring out of the lake, from the sparkling shadows of the day, and finally turned into the cold light of the night. She had a sour nose, red eyes, and an astringent heart, and secretly thought that the deep palace was like the black water of the lake in front of her, and even the bright moonlight could not shine into it.

Just like today, she deeply felt that she was also like the pool of black water in front of her, with sparkling and beautiful shadows in the daytime, but in fact, there was still an ugly side in the dark night. Although she is what he wants, where is she actually pure and clean? What's different? In the end, it was not that he had fallen into the dust, fell into the black mud, began to intrigue, began to be jealous, and began to be unbearable in his harem. She understands that this is due to her love for him, and the more she cares about him, the more she can't stand it. Therefore, those generous and reasonable words were finally blended into a sharp slap by the reality of one stitch and one eye, and one slap after another slapped him in the face.

The kiss marks on his collarbone made her heart tremble with pain. It hurts both himself and him. A dignified king, he can't just eat as he pleases, eat quietly, and then hide secretly, he also comes carefully and hard, isn't he? Well, what about her? The deep palace is dark, surrounded by tigers and wolves, serving the upper and lower, and circling around, how can you not be tired and tireless? So in this pool of black water, the two of them are tired and tired, so it's time to rest, right?

……

Sleeping in a daze at night, in the haze, Yao Duran seemed to feel that someone carefully kissed her red and swollen eyes, her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't open them, and her heart was Liulang, right? It's her Rokuro, right?

It wasn't until she woke up the next morning that she found herself sleeping in a side hall, sharing the same bed with Yi Shuang.

She was silent for a while, and Yishuang on her side also woke up. The little girl rubbed her eyes and said obediently: "Concubine Chen, did you cry your nose last night?" Come to me to see if your eyes are still swollen, I have heard that a kiss with love is good medicine, and kissing is good wherever you are. ”

Yao Duran turned her eyes to look at her, and barely squeezed out a smile: "So you secretly kissed my eyes last night?" ”

Yishuang smiled sheepishly, but still nodded.

Yao Duran's heart warmed, touched her little face, and her eyes moistened again: "A good kiss with love is good medicine, Shuang'er said it is really good." ”

Yishuang grinned.

After getting up and freshening up, she returned to the main hall and ordered Fuquan to go to Fenghuan Palace to take leave, saying that she had a cold and wanted to recuperate for a few days, hoping to avoid morning and dusk.

Fuquan received the order, and when he was leaving, he suddenly stopped and said slowly: "Niangniang, Your Majesty came to the palace last night, and the slave said that you slept with the princess in the side hall, Your Majesty didn't say anything, only slept after drinking a few glasses of wine in the main hall, and left early this morning." ”

There was a sour feeling in his nose, Yao Duran didn't want to think about it anymore, and said lightly: "Well, I know." ”

After lunch, Yao Duran was about to take a nap, but who knew that Lu Yan happened to enter the palace.

To her surprise, today's green diaphragm was also different, her eyes were obviously red and swollen, and she still wanted to force a smile, so the smile handed over was extremely unnatural.

"Let's go, the hall is stuffy, let's go to the water pavilion to sit, the lake is cool, the vision is broad, it's a good place." Yao Duran asked Fuquan and Biya to prepare some refreshments and fruits, and went away with them to pour them away from the water pavilion.

Along the way, the master and servant chatted about some leisure matters in a relaxed and leisurely manner, and the atmosphere was also harmonious.

Fuquan turned to the maid beside Lu Yan and said, "Xianghui, I want to eat the dumplings you made." ”

Biya seemed to hear the Arabian Nights: "Huh? Dumplings wrapped in fragrant flowers? Giggles, Fuquan, aren't you looking for the wrong person? I still remember the ugly dumplings made by Xianghui on Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

Xianghui smiled embarrassedly: "Sister Biya is not allowed to make fun of me, since then, I have specially learned from the master, and now the dumplings are good." ”

Fuquan nodded in agreement: "Yes, before I entered the palace, I had been following Sister Lu Yan and stayed in the Yuan Mansion for many days." At that time, the three of us often got together to make dumplings, and sometimes when we wrapped them, I remembered my mother's ......."

Xianghui sighed softly: "Yes, every time we make dumplings, the master and Fuquan always have red eyes." ”

Having said that, the atmosphere is not so relaxed.

Yao Duran listened to it with a sour heart. She has always felt that she has survived those days, but how can they not be like this?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Biya intended to alleviate the atmosphere, so she said with a big grin: "Look, look, the slave is right, Sister Lu Yan is the same as our mother, and the people around her are so painful that they have no place to put it, Sister Lu Yan also personally taught Xianghui to make dumplings, which is really a deep love between master and servant." ”

Everyone received this and laughed tacitly, and the atmosphere slowed down.

A group of people came to the water pavilion along the promenade of the lake, and after the refreshments were arranged, several people withdrew from the water pavilion and went to the promenade to enjoy the scenery.

The two sat opposite each other in the water pavilion, and Yao Duran poured tea for her while saying, "Lu Yan, let's talk about it, what do you have on your mind today." ”

Lu Yan brought the teacup and looked at the blue color in the lamp with lowered eyes: "Sister, what do I have on my mind." ”

Yao Duran raised her eyes to look at her, her expression calm: "Your eyes are swollen like this, and you want to hide it from me?" Go ahead. ”

The green diaphragm gently blows the green leaves in the lamp, one bite at a time, all like sighs. She said: "Sister, it's actually nothing, it's just that I accidentally learned the truth of an old thing today, and I cried silently for a while if I couldn't think about it, and it didn't hurt." ”

Yao Duran was not simple when she heard it, and asked, "What is the truth of the old thing?" ”

Lu Yan smiled: "Sister, it's actually nothing, it's okay, sister, don't ask." But my sister don't worry, it must be a trivial matter, and my sister won't tell my sister. ”

Seeing that she had said this, Yao Duran had to stop asking, and advised: "Okay, but you have to promise me that if there is anything big or difficult, you must tell your sister, and my sister will definitely make decisions for you even if she does her best." ”

Lu Yan nodded lightly, looking at her stupidly, she seemed to be quite moved, and there was a layer of light water in her beautiful eyes: "Sister, you treat me so well." ”

Yao Duran smiled, sandwiched a piece of mung bean cake for her, and said, "Fool, you treat me well." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled. Midori said, "They mentioned making dumplings just now, but I also remembered the first Chinese New Year's Eve I spent with my sister, which was the happiest New Year's Festival I ever had, and I always missed that beauty in my heart, and I never forgot it." ”

Yao Duran was provoked by her and sighed, reminisced about the past with a smile, and said in a rambling tone: "Yes, that Chinese New Year's Eve, you are the first guest in the family, the former crown princess is the second, His Royal Highness King You is the third, and later ......"

Lu Yan waited for the next words, but saw that she didn't say anything, so he picked up her words: "Later, Your Majesty also came, and played dice with us." ”
