In the winter of 925, everyone thought that the empress had died.

Shucheng Inn.

The woman was dressed in plain clothes, with a thin veil on her face, but her eyes were bright and bright, looking at the festive appearance of Shucheng through the windowsill, and she had a lot of thoughts.

And tomorrow is the last day of this year, and after all, it has been a whole year since she was brought back to the country by Mu Yang.

The door opened, and the woman turned her head to look at the person who came, it was Shen Shuyi.

She wears civilian clothes so as not to attract the attention of passers-by.

Shen Shuyi saw her and smiled, "How do you feel now?" What are the side effects of fake death pills? ”

Yun Ruonan shook her head and smiled with her eyebrows, "It's good, thank you." ”

Shen Shuyi stepped forward and took her hand, frowning slightly, "Have you really thought about it like this?" I won't be able to see him again. ”

"Think about it, since you can't kill him with your own hands, then you will never see him." Yun Ruonan said lightly.

Shen Shuyi pursed her lips, "Actually, when you faked your death, he stayed by your side every step of the way, and he didn't rest much, and when he was cremated, I could also see that he was very anxious, and to be honest, I almost couldn't help but tell him the truth at that time." ”

Yun Ruonan smiled, "Everything is over, there is nothing to say, now in his heart, Yun Ruonan is dead." ”

At this time, another man came in, it was Jiang Shennan.

When he saw the two people in the house, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "It's all here, it's just right, I'll go back to Cangming Country after eating." ”

Then he put his eyes in front of Shen Shuyi, and said with a disgusted expression, "And you, go back to the palace after eating." ”

"I'm not going, I'm going with Ruonan." Shen Shuyi glanced at him, a little weak-hearted, and grabbed Yun Ruonan's arm.

"Why are you a concubine following us to Cangming Kingdom?" Jiang Shennan was not happy, he didn't plan to take her away.

"Anyway, the emperor won't find out, so let me go." As he spoke, he looked at Yun Ruonan, as if he wanted her to speak.

Yun Ruonan understood, and smiled lightly, "Let's go together, it's all out, now that there is a mess in the palace, this Shuyi will definitely reveal something when she enters the palace again." ”

"Yes, yes." Shen Shuyi said, "And when I came out, I also settled the Changlin Palace." ”

Jiang Shennan had a headache, looked at the two people in front of him, and had to wave his hand, "Whatever you want, follow if you like." ”

So saying, he turned and went down.

When Shen Shuyi heard this, she smiled even more happily and went down with Yun Ruonan.

In retrospect, the previous plan was actually risky.

Shen Shuyi asked Mu Yang to recruit Mr. Ben, who was actually someone close to Jiang Shennan, in order to give her this fake death medicine, and tell her the uses and disadvantages of this fake death medicine.

Suspended animation, can only be 36 hours, that is, three days to remain in a state of death, but at the same time, the body's various properties will also weaken, during this time must take the antidote or you will really die.

Shen Shuyi didn't expect Mu Yang to stay on the side, and she didn't know how to move her body back.

Thinking that time was limited, she had to put some drugs in Mu Yang's dinner so that he could rest for a while.

Sure enough, he was taken back to the Heart Cultivation Palace by Li Zhen, and she took this opportunity to bring Yun Ruonan back to Changlin Palace.

Then he found a person of similar size to cremate the dead ghost to hide people's eyes, and the result was that everyone believed it.

But Mu Yang's impatience was something Shen Shuyi didn't expect, and for a while she felt a little guilty and guilty.

But there is no way, since this kind of thing has been decided, it can no longer be changed.

Overnight, he took Yun Ruonan's "corpse" out of the palace and joined Jiang Shennan outside the palace, only to get the antidote to the fake death medicine to recover again.

Now, in the kingdom of Shulin, everyone, including the emperor, believes that the queen died in the winter of 925.

That night, the three of them set off for Cangming Country, which was a bit far away and took three days.

The journey was safe and there were no accidents, and the journey was tiring along the way, probably because of some side effects not long after the antidote, Yun Ruonan's body was a little unwell.

In a daze in the carriage, he fell asleep.

It was already the second day after arriving in Cangming Country, and Yun Ruonan didn't know where he was.

Slowly opened his eyes, and what greeted him was a pale yellow curtain, the twilight was slightly cool, and the top of his head was a pair of tassels, swaying gently in the wind.

I moved uncomfortably, but found that the bed under me was cold and hard, even if the complex and gorgeous clouds and silk were spread under me like water, it was always soft but also extremely thin.

From time to time, a burst of rosewood wafts in, quiet and beautiful. Next to the couch is the window, exquisite carving, rare wood.

Outside the window, there is a beautiful scene, rockery, small pond, blue lotus root, pink water lotus, from time to time there are little maids passing through, but the footsteps are very light, and the sound of conversation is also very light, it seems that they are afraid of disturbing the rest of the people in the house.

Yun Ruonan looked around, she was very unfamiliar with this place, and she didn't know where it was for a while, but looking at the various decorations in this house, she felt that this must be a big family.

After getting off the bed, Yun Ruonan pulled the door and walked out.

Outside the courtyard, the powder wall is encircled, the green willow hangs around, there are three hanging flower gatehouses, and the verandah is copied on all sides.

The courtyard is connected with each other, the mountains and stones are embellished, the whole courtyard is magnificent, graceful and luxurious, the flowers are clustered, the crystal clear and exquisite, the backyard is full of roses, treasures, and a pool.

There were also people cleaning on both sides, and when they saw her, they all bowed their bodies and said respectfully, "Good morning, madam." ”

Hearing this, Yun Ruonan couldn't help but be stunned, madam? Call her?

Ri looked around, and it seemed that he was indeed calling her, what happened in this?

Yun Ruonan was puzzled for a while, turned around and planned to take a look at the environment, just out of the small courtyard, stepping out of the threshold, and seeing a man in a purple robe appear in front of him.

Seeing each other, although he was wearing a half-section of the mask on his face, he was inexplicably familiar with those eyes.

The two glanced at each other and paused, but the man in front of him had crooked lips and said, "Are you awake, are you still sleeping comfortably?" ”

Familiar with the voice, Yun Ruonan slowly moved her gaze to his left arm, although it was covered by a long robe, she could still see that the man in front of her had lost his left arm.

She was slightly stunned, and then a little happy, "Ah Xi? ”

When the man in front of him saw her so happy, his eyebrows and eyes bent, "It's me." ”

Yun Ruonan saw that he was indeed safe and sound, so he rushed over excitedly, hugged his neck, and choked slightly, "It's really you, Ah Xi, I finally saw you, I thought, I thought I would never see you again." ”

Mu Xi was taken aback by her sudden move, and she didn't react for a long time, and a woman's soft voice came to her ears, and the familiar fragrance hit, and then she realized that she was indeed hugging herself.

Thousands of emotions in his eyes converged, and then he stretched out his right hand behind his back, stroked her back, and his tone softened for a rare time, "It's me, I'm still here." ”

The two reunited, Yun Ruonan seemed to have thousands of things to say to him, eating together, Yun Ruonan also chattered non-stop, Mu Xi listened quietly, and also served her vegetables from time to time.

"By the way, Ah Xi, why are you wearing a mask? Didn't you fall down and be disfigured back then? Yun Ruonan paid attention to the mask on his face and asked carefully.

Mu Xi listened, and after eating vegetables, he looked at her and said, "Oh, I'm used to wearing it for many years." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to be thinking about something, then put down his chopsticks, reached out and took off the mask on his face, and looked directly at the woman staring at him in front of him, not letting go of any expression on her face.

The man was born very well, with a smooth and fair face, revealing an angular cold hand; dark and deep eyes, glowing with a charming color; The thick eyebrows, the tall nose, and the beautiful lip shape all show nobility and elegance.

It's just that when he saw this face, Yun Ruonan's heartbeat seemed to stop at that moment, not for anything else, just because Mu Xi and Mu Yang are twin brothers and look exactly the same, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but think of Mu Yang.

Realizing her gaffe, Yun Ruonan looked away, pulled her mouth and smiled, covering up her emotions, "It's good for you to be like this, why are you wearing a mask, eating vegetables and eating vegetables." ”

As he spoke, he took a piece of fish and put it in his bowl.

Mu Xi lowered his eyes, looked at the piece of fish in the bowl, and only moved his chopsticks for a long time.

As agile as he was, how could he let go of the emotion on her face, but he knew very well in his heart that Yun Ruonan was looking at another person through his face.

He'd known the secret since six years ago.

Every time she looked at her tender and shy appearance, he knew that it was not for herself, it was all about seeing another person through him.

He hated it, and he hated it even more.

After eating calmly, Mu Xi put on the mask as usual and said to her, "Cangming Kingdom has been a little unpeaceful in the palace recently because of the competition for succession, Ruonan try not to run around, Shuyi is also there, and Shennan will take you out to get familiar with the environment later." ”

Yun Ruonan listened and nodded, "What about you?" ”

Mu Xi replied simply, "I'll go to the palace for a trip, and the Eighth Prince's body and bones still need to be recuperated." ”

Yun Ruonan understood, but listening to these eight princes, she suddenly seemed to think of something, aren't these eight princes the sick little prince who His Majesty Cangming Kingdom favors the most?

It seems that this body is really not good, and suddenly she thought of her brother, the little prince is very good friends with his brother.

As if thinking of something, Yun Ruonan smiled, "Ah Xi, can I go to the palace with you?" ”

When Mu Xi heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I have something to do with the little prince." Yun Ruonan explained, looking at him with a hesitant look.

For fear that he would refuse, he hurriedly put his hands together on his face, rubbing them up and down, "Good Ah Xi~"

Listening to her slightly coquettish appearance towards herself, Mu Xi couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head, "You, it's still the same." ”

"And you agreed?" Yun Ruonan blinked and said expectantly.

Mu Xi looked at her, then looked away, and responded, "Well, you just follow me, just don't run around." ”

"Ah Xi is the best!" Yun Ruonan smiled and looked extremely happy.

Looking at Yun Ruonan like this, Mu Xi couldn't help but bend his eyebrows.
