Chapter 1: The First Awakening

Next Chapter

In the first year of Yuankang, the ninth day of June.

The night is deep, the candles in the Xingyue Pavilion of Yongning Wangfu have not been extinguished, and the whole room is warm. Layers of draped curtains, from light yellow to orange, incense candles reflected in the bedside, the shadow is abundant.

In the side corner of the room, Yongning Wang Yeyao sat in front of the desk, dressed in white and straight, stacked like a mountain, except for the sound of reading, almost motionless, only occasionally walked to the edge of the bed, and looked at the sleeping girl on the couch fixedly, with worry in his eyes.

The girl who has been sleeping for nearly a month is Princess Dayong and the future Princess of Yongning, Ye Xingcan. Before taking her back to the Yongning Palace, Ye Yao ordered someone to renovate the main house of the palace, expanding it into two rooms, the outer room only has a simple bed and desk, and the inner room is a complete copy of Ye Xingcan's original boudoir, with warm goose yellow as the main color, mixed with light orange and honey powder, gentle and cute, still called "Xingyue Pavilion".

After thinking about it for two days, Ye Yao moved his desk into the inner room and put it in the side corner, and when he looked up, he could see the sleeping girl on the bed.

Ye Xingcan, who was supposed to wake up three days ago, seemed to be still immersed in nightmares all day long, tossing and turning, but there was no sign of waking up, and Ye Yao's heart was also entangled and painful together. Almost every time I walk to the bed, I can see Ye Xingcan's tears and struggles, do you want to forget that person, or don't you want to wake up and face the world?

"Lord Wang, Mr. Chu is here." Outside the door, the voice of the guard Huo Yue came from.

In the study, the man called Mr. Chu by Huo Yue was drinking tea, and there was a girl in a light blue skirt standing beside him, her appearance was not outstanding, but she looked smart.

The man drinking tea has a handsome face, which can be called the appearance of the country and the city, but there is a sense of alienation out of the dust, the whole person is strangely mixed with the youth of the green onion, the quietness of middle age, and the deep eyebrows and eyes seem to have gone through vicissitudes, and the real age cannot be seen.

Ye Yao looked at his face that was somewhat similar to Ye Xingcan, even if it was not the first time to fight, the young prince on the Wei Zhen side was still stunned at the door.

"Can't wake up yet?" Chu Yan turned his head, his tone was cold, and there was concern in his eyes that couldn't be hidden.

"...... Chu" Ye Yao pulled the corners of his mouth, although he knew that the seemingly young man in front of him was indeed Ah Can's grandfather, and he had lived for an unknown number of rounds, but looking at this man who was not inferior to himself, he couldn't shout after all, and said, "Mr. Chu", and took him to Xingyue Pavilion.

Walking into the door, Chu Yan found that the room seemed to be small, but it was thoughtful. There is only a simple bed in the outhouse, which is mainly plain white and dark gray, with a clear manly atmosphere. The inner room is warm goose yellow, and when she first saw Ye Xingcan, her yellow clothes were gentle and quiet, with a hint of laziness, clear and warm.

On the bed in the middle, layer upon layer of curtains, a stunning girl was still asleep, frowning from time to time, not knowing what she had dreamed of.

Since Ye Yao brought back Ye Xingcan from Luo Yuan, every three days, according to Chu Yan's instructions, he used internal force to assist her with medicine to help her recover. Three days ago, it was supposed to be the day when Ye Xingcan woke up, Ye Yao prepared everything early, and changed into Ah Can's favorite clothes when he was a teenager, but he was empty, and hurriedly lit the paper butterfly message handed over by Chu Yan.

Chu Yan hurriedly walked to the front of the collapse, looking at Ye Xingcan, who was still sleeping, in a trance, the girl's slightly pale face was a little thinner, and it slowly coincided with the daughter Chu Yu who was laughing and playing in Luo Yuan in her memory.

He put his grip on the girl's wrist, his pulse growing stronger, but disorganized.

Ye Xingcan's body suddenly trembled, as if he was struggling to wake up, and tears crossed his cheeks like beads of broken threads. Ye Yao hurriedly rushed over, crossed Chu Yan and took the girl into his arms, gently wiped the tears on her cheeks, and hummed a song from nowhere, Ye Xingcan slowly regained his composure and fell asleep again.

"Is this often the case?"

"It was less before, just sleeping quietly, but lately it has been more and more often, and it seems that I have locked myself in my dreams all day these two days." Ye Yao gently put Ye Xingcan back on the bed, although he was answering, his eyes did not leave for half a minute.

Chu Yan looked at Ye Yao, "If it weren't for that person, Ah Can would have died half a year ago, or two years ago, he would have appeared in front of me without a life at all, ask you again, do you really want to do this?" ”

Ye Yao's eyes instantly became cold, and his body was full of murderous aura, the ghost rakshasa who dominated the northwest and made Beiyin frightened seemed to have just returned to his body, the thirteen-year-old who went out with the soldiers, attacked the lord at the age of sixteen, led more than 300,000 soldiers, and the king of Yongning, who had not tasted defeat, came back to life.

"Mr. Chu, in the past six months, Ah Can has sought death for that person several times...... Ye Yao looked at Chu Yan standing on the side of the bed coldly, met his eyes coldly, and spoke again, "Seventeen years ago, you failed to save Chu Yu Niangniang, Ah Can is Niangniang's only blood, she exchanged her life for her life to save her back, now, do you want to watch Ah Can's martyrdom go?" ”

Thinking of Chu Yu, the only daughter who died tragically in the palace, Chu Yan closed his eyes, as if he saw that day and night, breaking into the forbidden palace at night, but only seeing his daughter in a pool of blood and his newborn granddaughter, all kinds of past events, heartbreaking.

Without saying a word, Chu Yan passed the true qi into Ye Xingcan's body, and then raised his hand to press it to the top of his head, suppressing the unwillingness and struggle in her heart, and washed away the person in her heart and all the past two years.

Everything was in order, Chu Yan retracted his true qi and told Ye Yao that Ah Can would wake up tomorrow at the latest, leaving behind the blue-clothed maid known as Lingxiang, who was about to leave.

Ye Yao didn't keep it, but just handed a piece of phoenix pendant back to Chu Yan's hand, the jade pendant looked very quaint, a phoenix was flying in the sky, but for some reason, there was a crack on the head of the phoenix, and there was a faint red silk on it, like blood was swimming.

Chu Yan sighed faintly and closed his eyes, as if he was puzzled, "This is a relic of Ah Can's mother, don't you want to stay with her?" ”

"Mr. Chu, the dragon and phoenix double pendant was originally handed over to my mother by Concubine Chu before she died, and it was transferred to me and Ah Can...... Since Long Pei has frozen Rin Chuan with him, please take Feng Pei with him. Ye Yao handed Feng Pei out again, "In the future, I will stay by Ah Can's side and protect her for the rest of my life." ”

Chu Yan took the jade pendant and looked back at the palace again, "I don't know what past Yu'er has with your mother, I didn't protect Yu'er back then." Today, I respect the marriage contract made by Yu'er before her death, and leave Ah Chan by your side, if you have any sorry for her, even if you are far away in Luoyuan, I can easily take your life and throw it to Rinkawa. ”

Ye Yao smiled and muttered, How do you know, how much I hope that the person who is now frozen is me...... I don't know if Chu Yan, who has disappeared, heard it.

————————

Ye Yao returned to Xingyue Pavilion, leaned on the side of Ye Xingcan's bed, fell into deep thought, it was that day again, he hurried to Tonglin Pass, but saw corpses all over the field, rivers of blood, and nothing left.

In fact, it was only half a year ago, but I always felt that it happened in the previous life, and the past was like smoke and dust, as if the clouds were gone, and there would be no day to do it again.

Suddenly, Ye Xingcan's eyelashes moved slightly, as if he had a heart, Ye Yao opened his eyes, grabbed the girl's slightly raised hand, and called "Ah Can, Ah Can......", his voice was low and soft.

Ye Yao couldn't help but kiss the girl's eyes, gently, but like a spell to unlock the seal. Ye Xingcan opened his eyes, looked at the man in front of him in a daze, his eyes were wandering, his eyes were shallow, and he said softly: "Brother......"

Ye Yao hugged Ye Xingcan, like a lost treasure, and couldn't stop trembling with happiness, while hurriedly instructing the maid to summon the palace doctor.

"Lord Wang, Gu Weichen diagnosed, Princess Zhang is fine, but she has been in a coma for a long time, and she has injured her head, so she will need to recuperate for a few more days before she can recover slowly." After a detailed consultation, the doctor returned to King Yongning, who was standing behind him, concentrating.

Ye Xingcan, who was on the bed, was a little stunned, and Yizheng's words seemed to be a little incomprehensible, frowning and shaking his head, and looked directly at Ye Yao, "Why does he call me the eldest princess, when did my father give me a new title?" ”

A look of hesitation flashed between Ye Yao's eyebrows, but it was only for an instant, and he immediately regained his composure, pondered for a moment, and then said directly, "Your father died four months ago, and the two brothers, the crown prince and the king of Thailand, also passed away one after another. ”

Although Ye Xingcan was sent to Yongning Wangfu to raise her since she was a child, she was not very close to her father Wang Daozong, and she had never seen her two elder brothers, but after all, she was connected by blood, and the news of her father's brother's death still made her stunned, tears filled her eye frames, and a drop fell on Ye Yao's palm, and her body that had not yet recovered could not stand such bad news and fainted.

Ye Yao thought about it, but chose the key points, Ah Can still couldn't bear it, and was worried that if she remembered the past, she would not be able to deal with it.

Thinking of this, Ye Yao hurriedly summoned Huo Yue and ordered him to take a few personal guards and then deal with the guards and servants of the palace to deal with the details one-on-one, especially when Mr. Chu left, he stayed to take care of Ah Can's maid Lingxiang, and he couldn't say anything more.

Two hours later, Ye Xingcan woke up again, tears still couldn't stop falling, Ye Yao retired from the maid, folded the futon for her, and took off his shoes and socks and leaned on the outside of the bed. The two leaned intimately together, only to feel like they were back when they were children.

It's just that anyone understands that even if washing the dust can wash away her memories of the past two years, make her forget the pain and love, but it is long gone.

The high-spirited young man was also full of white bones at his feet, what he was looking for was this country, this world, what did he give up and what he put down?

After three years of panic, it has been like a different world, and things are people and everything......

But what if it is forcibly reversed?

Ye Yao only felt that his whole heart suddenly softened and hurt, he was very afraid of going forward alone, he was afraid that his eyes would be empty when he turned around, so he wanted to desperately grasp the warmth around him, even if he didn't want to fight the world, she had to be resentful in this life, and he didn't want to lose it again.

If you don't live up to yourself, you can only lose your brother, bear the battle of spring and sunshine, and leave the letter to Qin Mo: Be a brother with Jun in this life, and marry in the next life.
