Chapter 205: Retracted
The dispute with the group of women that day finally came to an end after Yan Qi's mediation, but Zhilan always remembered the auspicious bird hairpin that day that was artificially destroyed. Especially after knowing that this was the relic of Yi Zhixing's mother, Zhilan was even more ashamed, and suddenly felt that she couldn't live up to him and his past affection.
In the past few days, Zhi Lan has been visiting various jewelry shops in Yindu, but no one has been able to restore it, the gap on the top makes Zhi Lan linger, she is really worried that Yi Zhixing's mother's relics will be completely broken in her hands, if Yi Zhixing asks about the situation of this thing in the future, Zhi Lan does not know how to explain.
On this day, Zhilan found a jewelry shop again and handed the hairpin in her hand to the old man in front of her. The old man carefully weighed it for a long time, and finally shook his head, and said ashamedly: "Miss, I am afraid that it is impossible to restore this thing, the gap on this head is inevitably too big, if you really cherish this thing, don't wear it on your head in the future, just buy a precious jewelry box from me, treasure this thing in it, and keep it for a long time." ”
After that, the old man took out a lot of gold boxes, silver boxes, exquisite craftsmanship, fine seal carving, at a glance you know that the price is expensive.
Zhi Lan, who was helpless, knew that she was at the end of her rope, so she really agreed to the proposal of the person in front of her, and picked the most expensive jewelry box to go back to. She carefully placed the hairpin in the box, stroked it gently like a baby, and then sighed deeply.
Coincidentally, at this time, a gorgeous sedan chair passing by here stopped here, and Yan Qi was the first to see Zhilan standing outside the jewelry shop with a sad face.
"Your Majesty, Miss Zhilan is there, would you like to go and have a look?"
Hearing this, the Son of Heaven in the sedan chair opened the sedan curtain, but saw that there was indeed a woman standing in front of him, holding a beautifully made gold box in her hand, looking at a loss.
"Yan Qi, call her over."
"Yes."
On the other side, Zhi Lan Fang wanted to step away, but Yan Qi hurriedly stepped forward to stop her: "Miss Zhi Lan, please wait a moment." ”
"Guard Yan, why are you here?"
As soon as she saw Yan Qi, Zhilan often subconsciously looked around, and always felt that Yi Zhixing would also appear not far away, and sure enough, when Zhilan looked to the side, a head suddenly poked out of the car window, which was Yi Zhixing. When the eyes of the two looked at each other, Yi Zhixing closed the sedan curtain again.
"Miss Zhilan, you should be rushing to Qingwu Building, right? Coincidentally, His Majesty came out of the palace today to do some private business, so why don't we give you a ride. ”
"No, I'm ......"
Before Zhi Lan completely rejected the kindness of the person in front of her, Yan Qi had already made the gesture of 'please', and she didn't fall for a long time, so she had no choice but to get into the sedan chair with shame.
Fang entered the sedan chair, and Yi Zhixing's eyes fell on the gold box in the woman's hand.
"What? Are you going out to buy jewelry? It's the first time I've seen you care about these things, and now your life is really leisurely, and you look a lot better than before. At the same time, the Son of Heaven noticed that the hairpin on the Zhilan Wusi was no longer there, but it was not illuminated for a long time.
Zhi Lan suddenly stuffed the gold box into her sleeve, and then said ashamedly: "Yes, I want to come out and buy some jewelry, women's families, they always love beauty......" She didn't plan to inform the person in front of her about the hairpin, because Zhi Lan never gave up the idea of continuing to look for a skilled craftsman to repair it.
The next moment, the Son of Heaven asked coldly, "I wonder if I can show me a few times the jewelry you bought this time, and I will also come to see what your preferences are." ”
As soon as these words fell, Zhi Lan's heart immediately became empty, and her wandering gaze was full of rejection.
"This ...... That's it, after all...... After all, these are all gadgets, I'm afraid they won't get into Your Majesty's eyes, you haven't seen anything, I still don't take these gadgets to offer ugliness. ”
"Gadgets also have the beauty of gadgets, Zhilan, you don't have to worry too much, I just want to take a look, see what you like, maybe it happens to bump into your birthday in the future, and I can give you something close to this."
"Your Majesty, no need, I never have a birthday."
Zhi Lan's attitude is particularly resolute, and Yi Zhixing's sense of smell is also extremely keen.
"Then at least let me take a look, so that you won't always be worried in the future, so it's better to let me help you solve the problem."
As soon as these meaningful words fell, Zhi Lan seemed to suddenly realize something, her eyes widened, and her face turned pale.
The next moment, the woman suddenly knelt on the ground, putting on a sincere appearance with her head bowed.
"Your Majesty! You...... Do you already know something......"
"I wonder what you're referring to?" The Son of Heaven's face was full of indifference, and his tone was not salty or light, as if he knew everything, but he almost didn't know anything.
"That's it...... It's about the hairpin you gave me back then......"
After finishing speaking, Yi Zhixing suddenly stretched out his hand, Zhilan's heart tightened, but she didn't expect Yi Zhixing's hand to support her: "Get up, what are you doing kneeling on the ground?" Don't you remember when you flew out of the sedan chair? ”
Zhi Lan trembled and stood up with the help of the Son of Heaven, and then sat down beside him again obediently. Zhilan knew that the people beside her were afraid that they had already learned about the destruction of the hairpin.
"Your Majesty...... I'm sorry...... I...... I didn't mean to...... At first, I didn't know it was a relic of your mother......"
"It's not your fault, why should you apologize, show it to me, and I'll see if I can fix it."
The golden box that Zhilan had been hiding finally fell into the hands of the Son of Heaven, and he carefully looked at the auspicious bird's hairpin, to be honest, when he saw the gap above, Yi Zhixing did feel a moment of pain. After all, this is the relic of his mother's concubine, and it has not been destroyed for a long time in the hands of outsiders, but it really didn't come to pass, and the beautiful thing was destroyed at the feet of a group of fierce women. Yi Zhixing learned all this from Yan Qi's mouth, but he never had the slightest intention of blaming Zhi Lan.
"I'll take it back and let the craftsmen in the palace take a look."
"Good ......"
I have to admit that when Yi Zhixing retrieved the things in his hand, Zhilan's heart still had boundless loneliness and bitterness. It's hard for her not to think that the person next to her is not angry with her, and it is precisely because of her anger that Yi Zhixing wants to take this opportunity to get back what belongs to him, just as he took back the hot affection at the beginning. Over the years, without the company of Yi Zhixing's gentle words, Zhilan felt particularly relaxed at first, and the burden in her heart would never return, but in the later days, she often felt a sense of loss, and even began to miss the days when she and Yi Zhixing fought in the palace in the past. Compared with the time when you miss Suijing, it seems that the time when you think of Yi Zhixing has the upper hand.
In the end, when Zhilan arrived at Qingwulou, the two separated. Zhilan was accustomed to the days of parting with Yi Zhixing, to be precise, she and Yi Zhixing were drifting apart. Even if they meet on the road, it seems that they can only talk for a few words, and then they say goodbye like a general friend.
"Sister Lan! You're back! ”
Now, it is often the small Li Falcon who pounces on her to greet her. After the last incident, Li Falcon seems to have matured a little, at least he will not ask Zhi Lan to marry again for the time being, because he has no money in his bag, so he can't say that he can keep Zhi Lan free of food and clothing from now on.
Compared to before leaving, Zhilan seemed to be in a good mood when she returned. Because there is no thing in his hand that can be used to be ashamed and missed, the affection and gifts in the past have been all taken back by Yi Zhixing, and Zhilan has no burden and no worries, so it is easier to break off.
"It's not early, hurry up and ask Xiaoliu to clean up the hall, and the guests will come in one after another, so you have to be clean and tidy."
"Okay! Falcon is going to call him! ”
It is still immersed in the busyness that makes Zhilan more tangible, she always has a feeling that she has to be accompanied by Qingwulou all her life, born in the noise, and died in the noise, for a person like her who is always clever, in fact, this is not the best way to live.
I thought that after returning the hairpin to the Son of Heaven, I would be able to cut off all the love threads, but not long after, news of Sui Jing came from the noisy hall.
"Hey! Somehow too! Over the years, the land of projectiles has gradually grown! Now they even want to be on par with our Yin country! That's a rarity! ”
"You mean that Xun Kingdom, right? I heard that their new monarch is a ruthless character, burning, killing and looting, doing all kinds of evil, first plundering the territory of small countries, and then turning to attack slightly stronger countries when their own countries are becoming more and more mature, this step by step, it is also to the point where it is today, and his ambition as a monarch is not small! Dare to use any means! ”
"I heard that there is a general in that Xun country! is also a ruthless character, and killing people is never sloppy! When he led his troops to attack other people's territory, the local people hid when they saw him, a tyrant, a fierce general, as long as there is no accident, their Xun country will definitely be able to develop by extraordinary means! ”
Zhilan, who was still greeting guests, heard this, of course, she immediately felt lovesick for her homeland, and while she was pleased that her homeland was no longer bullied, she was wondering whether the fierce general in the mouths of the two was Suijing.
According to what Zhi Lan has heard over the years, there are not many famous generals in Xundi, and Sui Jing is the only one who can be named, as for whether this fierce and cruel general is Sui Jing, I don't know, but Zhi Lan doesn't want Sui Jing's reputation to be linked to cruelty.
"Leave him alone! Anyway, it's none of our little people's business! In short, don't hit us! ”
"Don't worry, our Yin Kingdom has developed so steadily over the years, because no one dares to do such a thankless thing! Besides, the monarch of our Yin country is not a vegetarian, although his methods have indeed softened over the years, but the fierceness in his bones is not less! Our Yin country is not afraid of others! ”
"Don't say it too early, the Xun Kingdom has been targeting not only small countries recently, not to mention that our Yin Kingdom has also abused their territory! I'm afraid they have already held a grudge. ”
"Haha! What country has not abused them before? What a small piece of land! No matter how small a country is, dare to step on it! It's just a third-rate place! ”
When the laughter fell, I heard a loud movement next to the case. Zhilan placed the wine bottle on the table heavily, and her expression and tone were not lacking in coldness.
"I know that I am a small people, but I can't keep my mouth shut? Be careful which day the iron hooves of Xun Kingdom will ravage you to dust, and you don't know how you died. ”
This was the first time that Zhi Lan had a strange tone towards the guests in her dance building, and when the words fell, she turned around and left, leaving only the two guests lingering in doubt and ignorance.
