On a rainy night, in the quiet palace where no one could visit, Zhilan was leaning against the door, waiting for the Son of Heaven to come.

But she knew that the Son of Heaven would not come, and after so many days of commotion, everything that should be smashed here was smashed, and the fire lit by the candle flame could not last at all, and no one let her out, so Zhilan could only toss around by herself in this square inch. Looking at the messy debris all over the ground, Zhi Lan was finally tired, haggard figure, red and swollen and crippled hands, miserable white face, dark house, no need to go to the bronze mirror to take a look, Zhi Lan knew how embarrassed she should be now.

She staggered to her feet, trembling as she walked after not eating for days, and Shiba Lan wanted to continue smashing what was left of the place, but the next moment she suddenly caught a glimpse of a shamisen in the corner of the desk.

At this point, Shiba's emotions seemed to be reawakened a little, and she hurried to the shamisen, and immediately hugged it tightly in her arms.

She didn't know why there was a shamisen here, and this shamisen was not the one Shibaran had used a few years ago, but Shiba still regarded it as a treasure at this time, rubbing it preciously and gently plucking its strings.

After a while, the quiet string sound spread throughout the palace, and the sound of raindrops outside seemed to be singing in response to the chords, and everywhere was slow and urgent, sad and melancholy. It was a hazy but peaceful memory, and once upon a time, Shiran once held the shamisen in her arms and plucked it in the Jiaoyi Pavilion, even if those days were not necessarily very interesting, but it could also bring peace of mind and no worries.

The next moment, the string tone suddenly became urgent, Zhi Lan's thoughts had to rush to the drifting years again, although those years had more twists and turns and suffering, it was not as peaceful as the days of the Jiaoyi Pavilion, but at least there was Sui Jing as a companion at that time, Sui Jing was the only man in the world who aroused Zhi Lan's feelings, at that time, Zhi Lan really experienced the warmth of being guarded by others, and at the same time realized the sweet little feelings in his heart, but unexpectedly, everything that was obscure later came in a surging manner.

It was a sudden dim memory, Zhilan only remembered that she was wrapped in a strong sense of shock, her head was drowsy, her body was painful, and the choice between life and death was played out countless times in the moment, she couldn't survive, she couldn't die, and gradually pushed herself into a desperate situation. In the end, his half-dead canary did not die happily in the roar, but was imprisoned by the wicked from then on.

The string sound began to sink gradually, and Zhi Lan's emotions also sank, she couldn't forget the phantom sound she heard in her ears some time ago, how eager she was to follow the phantom sound, this is Zhi Lan's dream that she can't ask for, but the cold face of Yi Zhixing isolates Zhi Lan's fate from this sweet dream, she feels that she can no longer communicate with Sui Jing, and the rest of her life will be buried in this enemy country, the realm of manipulation by the wicked.

A teardrop the size of a bean suddenly fell from the woman's eyes, triggering an irrepressible rain of tears, and Zhilan seemed to be deliberately trying to compete with the sudden increase in rain outside, to see which side had the most intense mourning. Clearly, Zhilan had won the victory, and the panic of her inner turmoil had long since overtaken the torrential rain outside. She slowly plucked the shamisen in her arms, and suddenly, her fingers became bloody, and the blood-stained strings became even more poignant.

On that side, Alulo's palace welcomed the noble body of the Son of Heaven for the first time.

Alulo was full of smiles, and he couldn't believe that Yi Zhixing, who was so angry at that time, had really returned with him.

"Your Majesty, please take a seat."

When the words fell, Yi Zhixing waved his hand, and then said: "I won't sit down, I will go to take a bath first, and I will stay overnight today." ”

Without the slightest hesitation, the Son of Heaven said firmly, in a resolute tone as if he was promising the person in front of him.

Hearing this, Alluro was overjoyed, and when the Son of Heaven bathed, she hurriedly ordered Xiao Gu to find clothes for her to change, of course, this dress must also be suitable for a night of spring supper.

Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, Alulo carefully examined her delicate and small face, and kept applying grease and powder.

"Xiao Gu, how is the appearance of this palace tonight?"

"Niangniang, you can rest assured, there is no woman in this palace who can compare with you, and the women of our grassland are born extremely handsome, you don't need to doubt this."

Hearing the praise of the person beside him, Aluluo dyed his lips red, the blood-red color covered the sexy lips, and the skin was as delicate as snow.

At the same time, also in front of a bronze mirror, but the bronze mirror that fell to the ground reflected a fragmented face. The face was pale and gloomy, and there was no joy in it, and the lips were dry and white, in short, it was a sad face.

Shiba's remnants were engraved on the shattered bronze mirror, and she didn't notice the bronze mirror not far away, but she just blindly flicked the shamisen in her hand, letting the blood on her fingertips slip down, as if she didn't know the pain......

couch.

One side is warm, and Yi Zhixing after bathing is sitting in front of Aluluo, Aluluo is very shy, but he wraps his arms around Yi Zhixing's neck, the thin clothes are attached to her body, and she is close to the man in front of her.

"Your Majesty, why did you change your mind again and be willing to come to rest here with your concubine?"

"Concubine Yu is right, I can't let the rumors continue to spread wildly."

Although the Son of Heaven's cheeks were slightly red, his face did not show any excitement, but was a little too calm.

"It turns out that Your Majesty, you came to the concubine's dormitory for that damn rumor! The concubine is not convinced! Isn't it possible that the concubines can't compare to the rumors outside! ”

Aloroden withdrew his hands in feigned annoyance, then turned his face sideways and pursed his lips in indignation.

After a long time, there was no echo in the back, and Alluro thought that the Son of Heaven would appease her immediately, but this appeasement never came. Suspicious and frightened for a while, Alluluo, who was worried about the anger of the Son of Heaven, hurriedly looked back, but unexpectedly, she was held in Yi Zhixing's arms.

Yi Zhixing gently grabbed the woman's waist with both hands from behind, and placed his head on her shoulders, and said soft words that flattered Alulo.

"How so? Concubine Yu has always been the concubine who can pull my heart the most in this palace, how can I feel that Concubine Yu is inferior to those rumors outside? Besides, if I really only care about those rumors and don't care about you, Concubine Yu, then I can rest in the concubine's dormitory at will today, so why bother to come here? Is that right? My good concubine. ”

Yi Zhixing's warm words were something that Alluro had never expected, but seeing that her face was full of joy and couldn't stop it, she suddenly turned back from behind, and then threw herself into the man's arms.

"Of course, the concubine will know that Your Majesty is the best for the concubine, and the concubine will know that you don't love the concubine!"

Thinking of the days when she was spoiled and bullied by Zhilan in the past, Alluluo hated it so much, but now it is her Alluluo who is lying in Yi Zhixing's arms, and it is also her Alluluo who is comforted by Yi Zhixing's soft words, Zhilan is just a poor person who provoked the anger of the Son of Heaven and was imprisoned. Yi Zhixing was not seen all day, and just thinking about it, Alluluo felt that the woman who visited the palace was really miserable, and her smile was about to overflow her body.

"Of course I love you the most, you are the best concubine in this palace who can save my heart, if everyone is like you, I can also save a lot of heart."

"Fortunately, they are not like concubines, otherwise wouldn't you be loved by everyone, Your Majesty? Then where should the concubines go to cry? ”

Alulo continued playfully, her quirky eyes blinking, exuding charm and bewitchment.

Yi Zhixing smiled lightly, then hooked her nose, and said, "Don't worry, I won't love others, I will only love you all my life." ”

After that, Alulo was even more shy, but seeing her withdrawn from the arms of the Son of Heaven, she couldn't wait to spend the night with the Son of Heaven, and she hurriedly extinguished all the fire candles in the house.

At this time, the palace was dark, and the rainstorm and wind outside blew the doors and windows 'crackling' from time to time.

However, even in such a harsh environment, the warm atmosphere in the room was still hot and stubborn, but seeing the lips of the two gradually approaching each other, they were about to resist each other's hot lips......

The night that Alulo had been longing for for a long time had finally come today.

A sharp flash of lightning pierced the sky, and then the dark night was suddenly illuminated by a mysterious light. The torrential rain outside was still fierce, and Shibaran, who was sitting alone on the ground, stubbornly held the shamisen in her arms and plucked softly.

No matter how hot and warm the place was, the atmosphere here was still stubbornly in mourning, and Zhilan's heart began to ache violently, but when she clutched her chest tightly, her face became even more depressed.

At this moment, she doesn't hate anyone, and even Yi Zhixing, the culprit of all this, can't hate it. The only thing she hated was her own powerlessness, to be precise, it should be God's tricks, if she had known that Sui Jing was still alive in the world, then she would have tried her best to escape from this claustrophobic predicament. The reason why she is reluctant to end her life in such a situation is only because Sui Jing is still alive, although she can't see the hope that her fate can be reversed again, but she still wants to spend the rest of her life to pursue this seemingly small hope, as long as she lives, she will have the opportunity to see Sui Jing again, if she dies, Zhi Lan will not see anything.

But this does not prevent Zhi Lan's pain from persisting, she does still hold so many sporadic hopes in her heart, it is difficult to be noticed, even she herself has never seen it clearly, but her thoughts are wrapped in gloomy despair, it is precisely because she knows that the hope is very small, Zhi Lan is depressed all day long, she is really afraid that the rest of her life waiting is in vain.

In any case, Zhi Lan will not go to the end of her life, she must continue to endure all the pain and depression, until the moment when Yi Zhixing wakes up, Zhi Lan can really find the person she longs for the most, a certain love, and a new life that she has been asking for for a long time.

She was clinging to that possible hope in despair, she hoped that her hope would not be disappointed, and her hope was all trapped in Yi Zhixing's attitude.
