Chapter 161: Layout
I haven't seen him for ten days.
In just ten days, Han Shili looked like a different person, like a long-term illness, his originally beautiful face was haggard, his skin was sallow, his body was thin, his eyes were dead and silent, his cheeks and cheekbones were bulging, and even his smiling lips were slightly stiff because of the lack of blood.
"Guifei Niangniang......" Ye Lingyi's eyes widened in shock, staring at her.
Han Shili was still smiling, like a mournful dead leaf on a branch at the end of autumn, standing crumbling in the cool breeze, his pupils had long lost his eagerness for life, and only the terrible silence remained.
Wearing a wide cardigan cape, the navy blue background outlines bright red flowers, perfectly hiding the slightly swollen waist, walked over, and said with a wry smile: "Don't look at me with that kind of eyes, today is your newlywed wedding, this expression is not lucky." ”
Ye Lingyi was still immersed in surprise, and said hurriedly: "How can you not be surprised? It's only been a few days since I saw you, how did you become so weak? But sick? ”
Cast an inquiring gaze on Lianyi.
The palace maid Lianyi bit her lip and struggled for a long time, and finally couldn't help but say: "Miss Qingkite, please persuade our mother!" She hasn't eaten or drunk in the past few days, she is already too weak to work, and today she forcibly dragged her body out of the palace to give you a marriage, how can she not get sick? ”
"Lotus Yi!" Han Shili reprimanded, and a cough immediately surged in his chest, coughing violently, and his thin shoulders trembled violently with the cough.
Ye Lingyi's eyes were moved, he couldn't care about the heaviness of his body, and wanted to get up, but was stopped by Han Shili raising his hand.
"Don't come here!" After the cough subsided, Han Shili covered his mouth, his little face turned pale, and he panted: "I'm fine, don't let you get sick on the big day!" ”
Seeing that his good friend was getting thinner and thinner, how could Ye Lingyi not be in a hurry: "No matter what, how can you not eat or drink, and not take care of your body so much?" ”
Looking at her anxious and distressed appearance, Han Shili, who was already full of despair about this world, felt that at least Ye Lingyi could comfort her.
Xintian couldn't help but feel a warm current.
"Green kite, I'm fine, I'm really fine!" Gently took Ye Lingyi's hand, smiled again, and said softly: "It's you, today's wedding is happy, I know that there is no one in your mother's family, and there are some things that no one will say to you, so I opened this mouth." You need to remember that in the future, you will be the wife of Helian Duwei, an adult and the mother of the Helian family, you can no longer let your temperament mess around, you must take care of your husband's family in everything, think about the lord, shoulder heavy responsibilities, open up branches and leaves for the Helian clan as soon as possible, abide by the rules, manage the servants and maids in the house, take care of the affairs of the backyard, and avoid the worries of the lord and the queen. ”
Han Shili looked like her own sister in every detail, which made the tip of Ye Lingyi's nose, who rarely experienced the taste of family affection, sour suddenly, and her eyes filled with tears.
"Don't cry, it won't look good if you cry." Yi silk handkerchief gently wiped away her tears, looked at the palace maid waiting behind her, and ordered, "Present it!" ”
The palace maid bowed her head and stepped forward with small steps, holding a delicate cloud crane carved box in her hand.
Han Shili raised his hand to uncover the small lock on the box, opened the lid of the box, and a beautiful gold collar suddenly jumped into view, made of gold, spliced with green feathers to form a dense pattern, and a concentric gold lock fell, and the lock was inlaid with a thumb-sized white opal with flowing light.
At first glance, it is a priceless thing.
"I have nothing to give you, this neck ornament was my dowry when I got married, and now I give it to you, hoping to bring you more blessings!"
Ye Lingyi was so moved that she couldn't speak, she could only hold Han Shili's hand tightly, hoping that she could get out of the nightmare that tortured her as soon as possible.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Han Shili silently stroked his slightly bulging abdomen hidden in his wide robe.
At that time, Ye Lingyi didn't know that Han Shili had already made an important decision in his heart.
When the team came to the inn where Ye Lingyi was to be married, it was already past noon.
Ye Lingyi wore a red hijab, walked through a large group of coaxing people with the support of the bride, and walked to the front of the carriage, a white and slender hand appeared in the gap left by the red hijab, with the palm up, waiting for her to hand it over to him.
Ye Lingyi's eyes were moved, even though he had seen him thousands of times, the throbbing in his heart still did not decrease at all.
And in the future, she will finally stay with him forever, become his wife, and will bear him children and accompany him for the rest of her life......
Thinking of this, a sense of happiness that her wish was fulfilled overflowed, and Ye Lingyi even began to thank fate, thanking her for the car accident that sent her here, it seemed that in the dark, everything was to meet him.
Finally, he put his hand in his palm, as if he felt his excitement and trembling as he did through this intersecting palm.
According to the process, the procession needs to make a circle around the city for Nafu.
So the people who loved to join in the excitement gathered on the side of the street, watching the wedding procession pass by, whispering about the luxury of the rich family's life, and the need to get married with such fanfare.
At the same time, Helian Zhu, who was unable to sit still, ushered in Helian Chu, who was in a hurry.
"How? Can the fireworks go out? Helian looked nervous.
Helian Chu nodded: "Father, don't worry, the fireworks are released, and my son saw Cheng Ji's spies go back to report the news." ”
"That's good, that's good!" Helian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Who knew that Helian Chu gave him another bad news in the next second: "Father, as expected, there are guards in the palace, and on the grounds of maintaining the wedding, they have surrounded our house, I am afraid it was the queen mother's order." ”
"What did you say?" Helian Zhu's expression froze, and then he said angrily: "Idiot! Why didn't we talk about such a big thing earlier? You can't tell the priorities of things? ”
Helian Chu looked apologetic.
"Now that Chengji's subordinates have not arrived, if that group of thieves takes the first step, this group of people in the house can only barely survive for a while." Helian was in a hurry.
At this time, Helian Chu thought of something, thought about it, and said with a vicious look in his eyes: "Doesn't my father have a letter from the Western Regions in his hand?" ”
At the beginning, in order to get rid of the murder case of the imperial family, Cheng Ji sent a letter from the Western Regions, and stated that the content of the letter referred to the treason of the Qing Kite.
Helian Zhu's old eyes lit up suddenly with Helian Chu's words.
Helian Chu's expression was gloomy, and he smiled evilly: "Good steel is used on the blade, isn't this a good opportunity?" As long as the father submits this letter of treason to the enemy, this cheap maid will not be able to marry, once there is an accident at the wedding, the guards sent by the palace want to stay, but it is not so justifiable, so the queen mother's plan will not fail? ”
After pondering for a moment, Helian nodded: "This is not a bad way!" However, for the sake of insurance, I still transcribed the letter, one to the emperor and one to the queen mother, so that the two could contain each other, and neither of them could go their own way. ”
Having said that, but in fact, Helian Zhu looked at the fact that even if the Queen Mother was murderous to herself, she was now the emperor's favorite minister, and the green kite was the emperor's favorite person, and as soon as he had the opportunity to withdraw the marriage contract, he dared to believe that the emperor would definitely issue an order to annul the marriage.
And transcribing a letter and handing it to the Queen Mother is because Helian Note made a bet with himself, after all, even if the emperor can solve this crisis, it does not mean that he can save him a second time, as the so-called symptom but not the root cause will be deeply harmed, so he wants to fundamentally cut off the Queen Mother's murderous intentions to himself, and try to use a whistleblower letter to show favor to the Queen Mother, after all, Ye Lingyi is still the Queen Mother's person on the face, if she is a traitor, it is not a good thing for the ambitious Liang Hou, the purpose of his letter is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots for Liang Hou, In order to re-plan and ease his relationship with the Liang family.
Helian Chu can also be regarded as a good worker, and before Helian finished speaking, two letters were sent to the palace.
It's just that the father and son are too self-righteous, but they don't know that Empress Liang has already made up her mind to kill them, and they will get rid of them today.
The time soon came to nightfall, and the anxious Helian Note was eagerly awaiting a reply from the palace.
Seeing that the sedan chair was about to arrive in front of the Taishi's Mansion.
Helian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth.
Helian Chu was puzzled: "Father, the letter has entered the palace, and Cheng Ji's generals have already been ambushed around the palace, why is my father still in such a hurry?" ”
"How can you not be in a hurry?" God knows what other tricks and feet the Queen Mother's slut has done.
The more Helian Zhu thought about it, the more uneasy he became, so he simply instructed Helian Chu: "In this way, explain it, let all the secret guards ambush to Tianxinju, and once the situation in the mansion is different, immediately kill Helian Che and that cheap maid, and you don't have to report to me again!" ”
Helian Chu's eyes gradually became excited, he couldn't hold the corners of his mouth up, lowered his eyebrows, raised his eyes again, only the evil poison that penetrated deep into the bone marrow was left under his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and replied: "Yes!" ”
The night outside the window is still light.
The man sat alone in the huge palace, unlit candles, staring at the wine utensils on the table with a pair of melancholy eyes in the dim light, raising his hand to grab the wine glass, and drinking it clean as soon as he raised his head, the spicy wine stimulated his nerves like a flame stretching into his heart.
He felt loneliness and pain like never before.
This night, the silence of this cage that locked him deeply, the breeze outside the window was cool, the flowers were blooming, but there was not even the sound of a cricket, such a night was simply torture for him, he could not be distracted, he could only be drowned in guilt and longing over and over again, her lingering voice and smile occupied his entire brain, and countless times he wanted to desperately grab the door to pull her back.
But he also knew he couldn't.
He is the king of the Western Dynasty, and he is not just carrying him alone, but the entire Western Dynasty Building.
He must not be so selfish!
What's more, she doesn't have him in her heart at all, even if she doesn't marry Helian Che, will she choose him?
The answer is no.
Maybe letting her marry Helian Che is really for her good, and she will be happy only if he lets her go.
Li Yuanlin knows these things better than anyone else, but the more he understands this, the more profound the painful feeling in his heart becomes, and it pierces into his heart like a knife.
He can only numb himself by drinking alcohol and relieve the pain in his heart.
It's just that tonight's wine seems to have lost its original potency, not only does it not relieve the half-heartache, but it makes the mind confused.
He began to think about her like crazy, thinking about what she would look like in her wedding dress, thinking about what her expression would be when she visited the church, thinking about whether she would be in danger tonight, thinking about her......
There is no need to guess, he thought, she must be very beautiful in a wedding dress, she got her wish to marry Helian Che, and the chapel must also be happy, the Queen Mother laid a net of heaven and earth, but with Helian Che here, he will definitely let her be fine.
All of this, only he is an outsider.
Li Yuanlin laughed self-deprecatingly, and his smile gradually became helpless.
Helplessly, when the Queen Mother was in power, he could endure all kinds of humiliation, but I don't know when he started, when he encountered her, he was always out of control.
At that time, the cautious voice of the little eunuch came from outside the palace gate: "Your Majesty, the prince has sent a letter!" It is said that there are 100,000 urgent things to tell! ”
