Chapter 212: Bad Omen
For a few days in a row, Yi Zhixing came to Qingwulou as expected, but when he appeared, Zhilan often couldn't see Li Falcon. At first, Zhilan thought it was a coincidence, but later days felt more and more strange.
"By the way, have you seen Li Falcon? Why can't you see him in the daylight these days? Is it possible to oversleep every day? ”
"Oh, Lan'er, you don't care about him, now that I'm in front of you, what are you always thinking about the man next to you?"
The Son of Heaven subconsciously put his hand on it, and Zhilan deliberately broke free, and put on the reserved and dignified appearance of a married woman: "Don't pull and pull with me!" I'm not married, so don't ruin my reputation. ”
"What is not famous, you are with me is a legitimate reputation, haven't all your scandals over the years been with me? That being the case, except for me, Lan'er, you probably won't be able to marry in this life. ”
"Then I can't get married, I can't get married, and I won't marry you!"
Although the relationship between the two is still unclear, the way the two get along is getting closer to the flirting between the young couple, and Zhilan often does not reject Yi Zhixing's 'shamelessness'.
There was still a harmonious atmosphere, but with the change of the face of the Son of Heaven, everything began to become solemn.
At this time, but seeing Zhilan making tea for Yi Zhixing on the side, he said that he was reluctant, but he was more attentive than anyone else in his behavior. However, the Son of Heaven, who was immersed in handling political affairs, frowned sharply, and never let go of the knot on his eyebrows.
Seeing this, Zhi Lan dared to ask, "What's wrong with you?" Nothing, right? ”
Zhi Lan did not take the initiative to look at the words on the letter in the hand of the Son of Heaven, she always remembered the decree that women could not participate in politics, especially ordinary people like her who had long been away from the Yin Palace, but the heaviness of the Son of Heaven's face could be carefully looked at by Zhi Lanzai.
The next moment, Yi Zhixing suddenly put down the letter in his hand, and a smile appeared on his lips, but in Zhi Lan's eyes, this smile was too far-fetched.
"It's okay, Lan'er, you don't have to worry."
The Son of Heaven took the tea from the woman's hand, and then drank it in one gulp, as if he were drinking.
Zhi Lan can see through the sorrow that is piled up in the heart of the person in front of her now, even if she doesn't know what the sorrow is, even if Zhi Lan was still disgusted at Yi Zhixing for being 'shameless' a moment ago, but when she saw such a solemn face of the Son of Heaven, she still subconsciously wanted to appease it, trying to soothe the deep condensation of the man's brow.
"Yi Zhixing, if there is anything, you can tell me, although I can't participate in political affairs, but it doesn't hurt to listen to it occasionally, if you believe me, some things can be said to be better."
Zhilan couldn't hold back, and her hands unconsciously rested on the back of the man's hands.
Yi Zhixing withdrew his hand, and this moment of withdrawal made Zhi Lan's subconscious feel a layer of loneliness, but in an instant, the Son of Heaven held Zhi Lan's hand tightly with both hands, and the original loneliness disappeared.
"Lan'er, I'm fine, and it's not a big deal. Can...... But I still want to ask you, what if...... If you could see Sui Jing again in this life, you would choose me...... Or choose him? ”
The cold questioning of the person in front of her made Zhilan confused, and she didn't know why Yi Zhixing said this. The next moment, the woman withdrew her hand again, turned her head sideways, and replied suspiciously: "Yi Zhixing, what kind of ridiculous question are you?" Why should I choose? Besides, there is no such possibility at all. ”
"So you mean that you still hope that this possibility exists?"
Yi Zhixing's mood suddenly became excited, and suddenly the woman's face was forcibly pulled in front of his eyes.
"Yi Zhixing, why do you always speculate about other people's thoughts? I say that there is no such possibility, it does not mean that I will hope that it exists, so what does it matter to me if Sui Jing can come here or not? Why should I see him? Everything in the past is just a fragment of my memory, and I don't need to look back and go back. ”
"Would you still choose him? What if he pursues you again? ”
Yi Zhixing seemed to care about the answer to this question, and the hands that grabbed the woman's arms were held very strongly, and the eyes that stared at Zhi Lan were even sharper and more dignified. People who don't know think he's asking about something that matters like life and death.
Zhilan only felt that the question of the Son of Heaven was too ridiculous, and most importantly, she didn't want to hear anything about Yu Suijing anymore, even if it was just a short name.
"Lan'er, please, tell me to give me an accurate answer now. I...... I'm afraid he'll take you from me again......"
The face of the Son of Heaven is both aggrieved and bitter, and there is no lack of longing in the solemnity. Zhi Lan wanted to scold angrily to stop his nonsense words and deeds, but as soon as she saw her face, Zhi Lan was reluctant again, so she could only patiently and forcefully replied: "Yi Zhixing, you don't have to think about it all day long, could it be that the letter in your hand was given to you by Sui Jing?" In any case, I can't have any more dealings with him, he has his family, I have my life, we really don't have to bother each other, even if I don't marry you, I won't marry him, I won't marry anyone in this world! It's all done, right? ”
Zhi Lan's attitude was very resolute, and Yi Zhixing finally relaxed the hand holding the woman's arms.
"I'm sorry, Lan'er, it's me who lost my temper."
Yi Zhixing bowed his head, always speechless, looking at his solemn posture suddenly, Zhilan only said: "Yi Zhixing, don't think nonsense, in short...... Anyway, I won't have anything to do with him, whether I see him in the future or not. ”
As if assuring, Zhi Lan's eyes exuded a determined brilliance, and now she could no longer tolerate the sorrowful elements in Yi Zhixing's expression, and she wanted to erase it for him.
Hearing this, a layer of horror flashed through the eyes of the Son of Heaven's lowered eyebrows, but when he saw him, he suddenly raised his eyes, and immediately took the person in front of him into his arms, and said at the same time: "Thank you, Lan'er, as long as you don't go to others, I will be satisfied......"
The man's simple wish made Zhi Lan feel inexplicably ashamed, and in the end, Zhi Lan took the initiative to snuggle up, this slight move not only made Yi Zhixing tremble, but also made him smile.
Before the night gradually descended on the land of Yin, Yi Zhixing hurriedly returned to the palace, as soon as he left, Zhilan always felt that his heart was empty, and it was clear that he only got along for a few days, Zhilan was used to Yi Zhixing's noisy days in his own every minute, once Yi Zhixing returned to the palace, Zhilan was a little at a loss for a while, and even forgot his identity as 'Zhi's mother'.
At this time, the woman was suddenly shocked that she had not seen Li Falcon all day.
As a few days ago, Yi Zhixing and Li Falcon never seemed to appear in the same situation, at first they thought it was a coincidence, but now Zhilan finally discovered the clues.
"Hey, Little Liu, have you seen a falcon?"
"No, Mother Zhi, I don't seem to have seen you all day."
"That's weird, doesn't he like to hang around in front of me the most on weekdays? Why haven't you seen him all these days? ”
"Mother Zhi, maybe it's because Li Falcon is afraid of the emperor, every time he sees the emperor, he is like a mouse seeing a cat, and neither of them wants to see anyone."
Having said that, Zhi Lan always felt that something was wrong, and when she looked around, she couldn't see Li Falcon, and Zhi Lan finally went straight to Li Falcon's house.
knocked on the door three or two times, but no one answered.
"Falcon, are you in there? Falcon? If you don't reply, I'll just come in. ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhi Lan immediately pushed the door in, and the scene that caught her eyes at first glance really shocked Zhi Lan, but she saw Li Falcon leaning on the couch with five flowers, her eyes closed, her mouth blocked by a cloth, and she seemed to be unconscious.
Seeing this, anxiety and palpitations suddenly climbed to the bottom of Zhilan's eyes, and she hurriedly rushed to the man's side, her frowning brows overflowing with fear and panic.
"Falcon, wake up, wake up! You okay? ”
I thought that Li Falcon was either knocked unconscious or drugged, but who expected Zhi Lan's cry to fall, the man next to the couch actually opened his eyes, looking quite impatient, not like he was unconscious, but more like he had just woken up from a sweet dream.
Looking at this, Zhilan quickly removed the cloth towel from the man's mouth.
"Hayabusa, are you alright?"
"Sister Lan...... Falcon ...... Falcon......"
Li Falcon was chattering, and when he saw that the person in front of him was Zhilan, his sleepy eyes were stained with tears. He slammed into the woman's arms, and his aggrieved look was pitying.
"Sister Lan...... Hayabusa was bullied......"
"What the hell is going on? Tell me quickly, who bullied you? What did they do to you? Are you feeling unwell? ”
Hearing this, Li Falcon instantly withdrew from the woman's arms, and immediately shook his head.
"Yes, there is discomfort."
"Where is the discomfort? Hurry up and tell Sister Lan, Sister Lan will help you invite Langzhong. ”
"Hungry ......"
As soon as the three words fell, Li Falcon's abdomen suddenly issued a miserable 'call', and Li Falcon, who had not eaten anything for a day, was already so hungry that his chest was close to his back.
Zhilan was confused, and became more and more confused by the current situation.
"Sister Lan, go and help Falcon get some food, early this morning, Falcon was tied up here by the emperor's Na Lao Shizi's guards, and she hasn't eaten all day."
"Yan Qi? What did he do to tie you up? ”
Zhilan was so suspicious, she really didn't expect that the 'real murderer' behind it was him.
"What else can it be, isn't it because Falcon always pesters Sister Lan you, so it gets in the way of the emperor's eyes! The emperor was disgusted with the falcon and disliked the falcon's noise, so when he came back, he wanted to get rid of the falcon. ”
Li Falcon was very aggrieved, and his mouth was muttering, complaining about Yi Zhixing's sins.
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier? This master and servant are too much, even if they don't wait to see you, they won't treat you like a prisoner! ”
It can be seen that Zhi Lan is still quite dissatisfied with Yan Qi's behavior in the end, looking at it like this, Li Falcon took advantage of the situation and said: "Yes, Sister Lan, they don't treat Falcon as a human being at all, and they target Falcon everywhere." In addition, Sister Lan has always stayed with the emperor these days, and over time, Falcon Er also complains about you in her heart, so she refuses to go to you to complain. ”
Li Falcon always put on a bitter face, but he didn't know that Zhilan ate this set the most.
"Falcon, don't worry, tomorrow I will definitely help you count the easy trip, and I will never dare to ask them to treat you like this in the future."
Tonight, Zhilan swore an oath, but she didn't know that Tomorrow's trip would not be as punctual as in the past. The letter in the hand of the Son of Heaven during the day is enough to foreshadow the troubles of the coming days, whether it is about the worries of the Yin Dynasty or about the old feelings that are constantly involved in the past, it is undoubtedly an ominous sign.
