Chapter 197: Morning and Twilight
Chu Yang looked at Luo Liyao's back as she went out, and only hesitated slightly, but she still chose to follow, followed her closely, and whispered what he hadn't just finished saying as he walked: "Your Highness, actually...... He's already here. ”
Luo Liyao heard him say this, and her steps suddenly paused, and even her body tilted slightly, as if she was about to fall off the steps.
"You just said ...... 'him'?" Not only Luo Liyao's people paused, but even the words that came out with her trembled a little, "'He'? ”
Chu Yang didn't expect her to react like this, and it took a while to react, but she didn't explain a few words, only said: "It's 'him'." ”
Since Chu Yang confirmed it again, he clearly told Luo Liyao - the identity of "he" in his mouth was what she thought.
Luo Liyao pursed her lips and fell silent.
She stopped talking because she didn't believe what Chu Yang said at all—she didn't believe it anyway, after all, it was just a fantasy.
"Your Highness......" Chu Yang naturally understood the fact that he was not enough to trust her, and he didn't say anything more, only sighed slightly and followed behind her, and said softly, "You will know when you go back now." ”
Luo Liyao: "......"
Get back?
In this way, "he" not only concealed his identity and followed the mission to Shen Chu, but also entered the Shen Chu Palace and went to her residence?
The more Luo Liyao thought about it, the more wrong it became, but she had to speed up the pace of returning, and soon pushed open the door of the palace where she lived.
The hall was not as quiet as before she left, but it was a kind of noise that was incompatible with this palace, and as soon as the two of them entered the door, they could hear Tang Haoqi's inexplicable shout-
"Ahhhhh......h
"You can shut up—" It was Tianji who stopped Tang Haoqi's ghost crying wolf howl, "Are you afraid that people outside won't hear it?" Do you have to attract those people to come and see what we're doing here?! ”
"If it is really according to this news, there will already be a mess above their Shen Chu court...... Where do you still care about us?! Tang Haoqi retorted to him unconvinced, and even slapped the table very fiercely, making a "bang" sound, "What's more, I have a backer now, don't mess with me-"
Luo Liyao was used to seeing this person's martial arts, so he didn't even bother to sigh, so he directly pushed open the door of the hall and walked in, and then asked in his words: "Backer?" ”
"Yes, my backer is ...... Yes! Tang Haoqi replied casually, reacting very quickly to realize Luo Liyao's arrival, and quickly jumped up from the chair and said with a sneer, "Your Highness—
- You're back! ”
Luo Liyao looked at him jumping up suddenly, and then hurriedly blocking between himself and the inner hall, and asked inexplicably, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Hehe......" She asked, not to mention Tang Haoqi, and even Tianji unconsciously came over there, blocking Luo Liyao's view of the inner hall even more, "It's okay-that's it......"
"Your Highness—" Just when Luo Liyao was inexplicably feeling an unusual feeling welling up in her heart, Chu Yang, who had been following her, spoke in time, and directly picked up the words that Tang Haoqi and Tianji didn't dare to say, "It's 'him' here." ”
Luo Liyao: "......"
The two glanced at each other, and did not say anything to refute Chu Yang's words, Tang Haoqi even scratched his head a little embarrassedly, looking like he didn't know how to speak to her.
"Him".
Although Chu Yang didn't say it explicitly, who of the people present didn't understand who this "he" was referring to?
Luo Liyao's heart suddenly beat violently, and her eyes involuntarily looked at Tang Haoqi and Tianji...... behind him.
Although she has made it clear that she doesn't believe Chu Yang's words at all, she also has an irrepressible idea in her psychology - even if this idea is ridiculous from her own point of view, it can even be said that it is impossible...... But if she didn't have the slightest expectation about it, it would definitely be impossible.
It's like although she is stunned now, her body subconsciously directs her to step towards the inner sanctum.
Although Tang Haoqi and Tianji blocked her way in front of her, Luo Liyao didn't even look at them, and directly reached out to push them aside.
But where did Tang Haoqi and Tianji dare to let her push herself by herself (?) Directly, they tacitly took a step back and made a way for her - looking straight from where Luo Liyao was, it was the main hall of the inner hall.
Probably because the people of Shen Chu are particularly restrained and conservative, according to Shen Chu's etiquette, in order to avoid the rude behavior of someone rashly entering the inner hall, the inner hall in the Shen Chu Palace is not like Tianqi, there is only a simple inner room, with screens, dressing tables and beds; Instead, a main hall will be built, with a raised platform and chairs similar to those found in the outer hall.
And as the two of them gave way almost at the same time, the figure sitting in the main hall of the inner hall was directly displayed in front of Luo Liyao's eyes.
At first, due to various reasons, she was directly taken to Mengliang City by Ye Luoqing, Shi Yuezhen and others, and later, although she automatically chose to give up halfway, she directly took everyone back to Qiushui City, but this farewell was still not a short four months.
Then it was in August
Starting from the Tianqi Imperial City, he sent Meng Liran's marriage team all the way to Shenchu, and then to the end of the year, which was approaching the end of the year, this farewell was another four months.
Although they are not people who will be easily swayed by feelings, after all, love starts from the heart, and it is naturally difficult to control, where is the sentence "the overall situation is important" can easily cover up the past?
Luo Liyao's eyes widened, looking at the person who was propping up his elbow on the table in front of him and closing his eyes to recuperate, he was greedy for a while, and even his breathing sounded a little lighter, and he only quietly did not speak, as if he was afraid of disturbing the person.
Tang Haoqi, who has always been noisy, also closed his mouth rarely, and glanced at Tianji, who seemed to be as embarrassed as he was, and the two reached a consensus in an instant - Tang Haoqi and Tianji glanced at each other, and at the same time turned around and walked out, leaving a quiet space for the two who were ready to talk to each other inside, and even pulled Chu Yang away one by one.
Chu Yang looked confused and was dragged out by these two people, who were tall and knew that they had good martial arts, and they didn't dare to resist, let alone make a sound, for fear of disturbing the two people inside.
Those were two people he couldn't afford to mess with.
But Tang Haoqi obviously didn't think so, when he and Tianji pulled Chu Yang and were about to step out of the door of the outer hall, he seemed to remember something, and directly turned his head and said: "Your Highness, come on—we will leave for Tianqi tomorrow!" ”
Chu Yang: "......"
Luo Liyao: "......"
Luo Xizheng, who was able to close his eyes and recuperate, moved slightly.
Tianji couldn't stand it anymore, so he directly stretched out another hand to grab Tang Haoqi's arm, pulled him and Chu Yang out of the hall one by one, and then took him to the palace door with his backhand.
Just as the door of the hall slammed shut, Luo Xizheng slowly opened his eyes.
Four months is not a very short time, nor is it a very long time, but looking at the people in front of him, he only feels that countless spring and autumn seasons must have passed in the clouds.
Luo Xizheng frowned slightly: "Thin." ”
Luo Liyao tilted her head slightly: "It's ugly." ”
Luo Xizheng got up and walked towards her, stretched out his hand, and flicked her smooth forehead: "I'm a lot bolder." ”
Luo Liyao didn't say a word, directly stretched out her arms, and let herself pounce into his arms - in an instant, her body was surrounded by the breath she was most familiar with, and she felt the powerful heartbeat that the thick winter coat couldn't hide, in addition to warmth, it was more reassuring.
Although Luo Xizheng was a little surprised by her initiative, he still subconsciously caught the person steadily, and frowned unconsciously after feeling her thinner body than before: "What's wrong?" ”
Feeling the movement of the person in his arms shaking his head, but without saying a word, he also fell silent, letting her be around
The arms on his waist tightened little by little.
Probably because there is also Shen Chu bloodline in the bloodline, Luo Liyao's personality is also more introverted, with ten points in her heart, only five points on her face, and only three points when she puts it into action.
He knew her thoughts, and he knew her as a person, and even the letter he left for him when he left Qiushui City with her: "If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight (1)".
He wanted to see her, when he learned that she was going to repatriate all the escort sergeants, when he knew that she was in danger in Shenchu...... He wished that there really was some kind of psychic technique in this world that could send her back to him intact.
This time, he ventured to Shen Chu, naturally not all because he wanted to see her as soon as possible, but he never thought that her first reaction when she saw him again was to directly step forward and hug him, and pass on her thoughts to him with her actions.
The thoughts before the meeting were all transformed into joy at this time, pouring into the limbs and hundreds of bones bit by bit - it was the dead wood and spring of the long drought and the rain, and it was the bitterness of the wind and dust.
The two hugged each other in silence for a long time, and finally Luo Xizheng opened his mouth first: "The wound is already fine?" ”
Luo Liyao gently broke away from him and rolled up her sleeves a little, revealing the traces of the wound to show him - on the white and slender wrists, the two nearly circular purple-black marks were extremely obvious, but fortunately, at a glance, he knew that they were wounds that had healed.
After just letting him take a look, Luo Liyao directly wanted to withdraw his hand, but he directly held his wrist, and after struggling a few times, he couldn't resist his strength at all, so he had to explain to him helplessly: "This wound has long been healed...... It's just that I left a scar, and I just covered it with my sleeve in the future. ”
"Senior Ye also said that there is no way to remove it?"
Luo Liyao paused and smiled at him: "It's just a scar, it's not on the face, so you don't have to care so much." ”
Luo Xizheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "......"
Luo Liyao suddenly felt that she seemed to have said the wrong thing - this scar was left because she was bitten by the poisonous snake, if it was on her face, wouldn't it mean that it was biting...... Ahem, if that's the case, it doesn't seem to make a difference whether it's a scar on the face or a toxin that goes directly into the brain.
But fortunately, everything has passed, and she is not in any serious trouble, but she really didn't dare to mention the strange phenomenon that occurred after her body was bitten by a poisonous snake that night.
Luo Liyao hurriedly took advantage of the fact that he was a little stunned to exert some force, broke free of his wrist, covered the conspicuous scar, and said again and again: "It's okay, it's really okay." ”
"It's okay...... Luo Xizheng stretched out his hand, gently stroked her cheek, and whispered, "I know what to do." ”
