Chapter Twenty-Five: The First Meeting of the Three
For half a month, Jin Yan never went to Songlin Xuan again, nor did he listen to any movement there, and a panicked heart gradually calmed down.
If it was before, she probably wouldn't feel anything, it was normal for men and women to love, she just had to accept it generously and enjoy the love of others. What's more, as the king of a country, it is her duty to be impartial and evenly stained with rain and dew.
All in all, there is really no need to worry about such things.
It's just that now she feels more and more that it is good to have only the queen, a person's love can be so big, so that a person is inexhaustible, and a person's love is so small that it can only be owned by one person.
As for Zhan Nian, she couldn't blame him, after all, there was nothing wrong with him, and she had to escape the feelings that she couldn't give in response.
However, the person who should have come has come after all, and the matter that she should solve is still in front of her.
At this moment, Zhan Nian, who was standing in front of the imperial chariot, looked as usual, but the haze in his eyes made people feel that a storm would hit in the next moment.
Jin Yan was uneasy in her heart, but after thinking about it, she didn't do anything to be ashamed of her conscience, so why should she be afraid of him? Besides, as Her Majesty the Empress, if you can't even put a man on the table, what else can you talk about governing the country and leveling the world!
However, the location she is in now is the main road in the palace, people come and go, there are many people, and it is always bad to accidentally gossip, so it is better not to have too much involvement here.
It's just that Jin Yan hasn't spoken yet, but Zhan Nian stepped over, stood still in front of her, stared at her so steadily, and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, I heard that the queen will pass by here every day after handling the palace affairs, should I wait to say goodbye to the queen?" ”
When it came to Ying Qi, Jin Yan's heart was fierce, and she pinched her lifeline with just one sentence, hateful! This noble gentleman is not easy to deal with at all!
She had no choice but to step down and come to Zhan Nian with a warning urging: "What's the matter with you, tell me quickly!" ”
Zhan Nian was frank and open, and asked for instructions with great clarity: "Your Majesty, there are a lot of words in half a month, can you move?" ”
Looking at the firm, undeniable eyes, Jin Yan was finally defeated and nodded silently.
After getting permission, everyone watched, and in an exclamation, Zhan Nian picked up Jin Yan and flew away, leaving a group of passers-by sighing.
"Tut-tut, everyone who loves this show knows everything, for fear that others won't know what happened between His Majesty and Zhan Guijun."
"What do you know, Zhan Guijun is a general who dominates the battlefield, can he appear in the same way as ordinary people?"
"I think that this show of your courage is commendable, so many people have seen it, will the queen not know?"
"This is the key, I'm afraid the peaceful days in the palace are gone!"
******
In a dense forest to the south of the palace, Jin Yan was standing on a tall plane tree shivering.
There were many thick branches, and Zhan Nian chose one to step on it, and it would sway, squeaking and screaming, she had to grab the other party's clothes, not daring to move half a minute.
"Zhan Nian, you have something to say, can we come down first?"
Obviously, Zhan Nian, who came prepared, didn't intend to let Jin Yan go easily, and there were some things, and when it was time to spread them out, he asked directly:
"Why doesn't Your Majesty dare to see me?"
"Does Your Majesty hate me?"
"I just love Your Majesty, isn't that okay?"
"I don't ask you to give me the same response, I just ask you to give me a chance to love you."
"I'm here to seek justice today, if you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I may not be able to hold on and fall down with you!"
Asking bluntly one sentence at a time, Jinyan opened her mouth to stammer, she was really difficult to deal with such a situation, the last thing in this world could not be provoked was love debt, but she had to face it.
She cleared her throat with difficulty and replied, "Zhan Nian, I have a queen, and I no longer need the love of others." ”
This answer is very cruel, but it is also expected, if the start is unfavorable and admits defeat, then it is not Zhan Nian, he shook Jin Yan's hand very seriously for the first time, and the soft and warm touch made his heart harder.
This is a pair of hands that want to be cared for, a pair of hands that will never let go when they grasp it, and a pair of hands that can make themselves more brave and determined.
"Life is long, how do you know you don't need it? I used to think that my love was at the end of the world, but I didn't expect my love to be right in front of me, you don't need it now, then I'll line up first, you can't do this, right? ”
Like a pebble thrown into a lake, it is so small that it only stirs up a small splash on the surface of the water, but you can't deny that there is such a pebble at the bottom of the lake from then on.
Jin Yan silently pushed forward his thoughts, and only silence remained, a long silence......
What broke the silence was the sound of a squeak of tree branches breaking, it seemed that it couldn't bear such a heavy atmosphere, Jin Yan reacted suddenly but had already fallen unsteadily, and before she could exclaim, she threw herself into a familiar embrace, and Zhan Nian also followed and stood not far away.
In this situation, the three of them looked at each other, and Jin Yan, who was held in Ying Qi's arms, was in a state of mind like the noisy battlefield, nervous, tense, and urgent, she thought that Ying Qi would be very angry, and at least she had to say a few words-for-tat, but unexpectedly, he just looked at Zhan Nian deeply for a moment and left with her.
After going back, Jin Yan opened his mouth several times to talk about this matter, but was diverted by Ying Qi.
Later, she couldn't help it, so she forced Ying Qi to listen to it again, and only got one sentence, "If someone is worried, how can you hide from it~"
Such an attitude is completely different from the resolute and decisive killing of Xing'er at that time, too calm and too indifferent, but it is even more disturbing.
******
The next day, Ying Qi stepped into this place called Songlin Xuan for the first time, which is a remote place located in the southernmost part of the palace, not gorgeous, not exquisite, not comfortable, and the only advantage may be quiet.
However, when he walked into the courtyard, he saw a different kind of scene. The garden is full of violet and red is very lively, he thinks, this is what they care for and water together, in those bright mornings and quiet afternoons, what a happy time, for those sweat together, those smiles that have been shown together, those who have shared the joy together, he is full of jealousy!
Ying Qi slowly and seriously looked through the entire courtyard, and then walked under the corridor. He set his eyes on the first pillar on his right, and it was here that he threw his arms around my lover, kissed her lightly on the cheek, and presented his longing and heart to my lover plainly, and he was filled with anger at the thought of this!
Walking indoors, Ying Qi saw Zhan Nian drinking tea at a glance. He was sitting in a precarious position but relaxed, no joy or anger, just focusing on the cup of tea in his hand, the person in front of him loved heavier than him, tougher than him, harder than him, he let him know that there was a person in this world who knew his lover better than him, which made him feel guilty.
He had thought that it would take a lot of effort to investigate this matter, but he unexpectedly easily obtained such detailed information from a guard of the Forbidden Palace. What does this mean? He was showing off to him, demonstrating to him, declaring war on him, telling him that she was also the woman he loved, and from now on, he was not dodging, standing in front of him openly, and at this moment he was full of murderous intent!
Ying Qi walked over slowly and sat on the opposite side, picked up a cup of tea in front of him, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, it was a cup of jasmine tea, and tasted it gently, fragrant and sweet, with a little honey added to it, this is Jinyan's favorite tea.
Yes, she doesn't like those precious teas, but she likes this kind of jasmine tea that can be seen everywhere, and even the little bitterness is covered up by adding honey, she said, such tea is sweet in the mouth, the mouth is sweet, flowing to the heart, and the mood is sweet.
Ying Qi put down the teacup and said lightly, "Do you remember Xing'er?" ”
The person on the other side also put down the teacup and replied lightly, "I'm not a star." ”
After that, the room was silent, and the two didn't say a word, but they each tasted the fragrance and sweetness of the tea, and after drinking a cup, Ying Qi got up and left.
This place, this person will never be there again!

Facing the lake
————————————
In the middle of summer, the teenagers who have been idle for a long time get together again, but now they no longer have the slightest desire to compete for favor, the queen is powerful, and His Majesty loves him wholeheartedly, even if Xing'er is such a meticulous and clever person, if the queen can't tolerate him, he doesn't even have a chance to resist in the face of absolute strength.
What's more, in addition to His Majesty's favor, the queen is very lenient in other aspects, and there is nothing wrong with it. I figured it out, being an idle person in this harem, it is already very good to be rich and happy.
It's just that the recent high-profile appearance of Guijun Zhan Nian aroused their thoughts to watch the excitement, and they were also very curious, when the powerful and domineering queen met the menacing Guijun, what would be the result?
A young man in purple saw that his sunspot had no room to turn around, so he simply threw a chess piece and admitted defeat, "Don't play, don't play, Ah Jing, you win all the time, this chess game is boring!" ”
The young man who was replaced by Ah Jing couldn't help but pointed at the purple-clothed young man and sneered, "You, you, it's not interesting to compare paintings with Ah Song, it's not interesting to play chess with Aliang, it's still not interesting to play chess with me, whether this chess is boring, or you are boring, it's really willful!" ”
The purple-clothed young man was not annoyed by the thought, so he simply spread out his words and said, "Oh, I'm in a hurry, you said that your monarch is so high-profile and close to Your Majesty, for so many days, the queen has not moved at all, is it possible, he is a bully who is afraid of the hard?" When will this big drama start! ”
Ah Jing hurriedly made a silent gesture at the purple-clothed young man, "Ashin, you don't want to die, if such words reach the queen, you can't be too much!" ”
The purple-clothed young man named Ashin pursed his lips, "It's all your own people, what are you afraid of, aren't you curious?" ”
The young man Ah Jing looked at the purple-clothed young man in front of him with a look of hatred, "We are all brothers, I just reminded you, the queen is the eldest prince of Nanqian, there is the power of a country to hold each other, your monarch is also a noble family of Beiluoxun, and the network is deep and complex, no matter who it is, we can't afford to provoke people, we had better hide away, so as not to be injured innocent." As for the movement, by the time you are aware of it, it will be a monstrous wave, so you can rest assured! ”
The purple-clothed young man's expression was already solemn when he heard this, and he put the chess pieces on the table again, "Come on, come on, we don't understand the world of the superior, it's still interesting to play chess with you." ”
