Volume 2: Ten Years of Life and Death [62] Long Wish

"What?" Chu Changting was stunned for a moment, as if there was a silk thread strangling her throat, a trace of panic flashed in her heart, she secretly thought to herself that Su Jin and Yi Lunhuan didn't seem to have any festivals except after the dinner that day, she was not sure what he meant, so she had to say, "How dare you blame Your Majesty for the concubine?" ”

Yi Lunhuan shaved Chu Changting's upturned nose dotingly, and said softly: "If you follow me into the palace, you won't be able to live the life of ordinary people." ”

"How not." Chu Changting smiled lightly, the moisture in his soft apricot eyes was misty, and there was a distant loneliness, "With the emperor by your side, isn't it just looking for someone to grow old." ”

"Even if I have three palaces and six courts, you are not annoyed?" Yi Lunhuan looked at Chu Changting seriously, and there was a burst of anger and sourness in his heart.

"I used to be, perhaps. But now I don't. Chu Changting pulled the corners of her mouth sourly, the tip of her nose was slightly red, she looked at the blue waters of Changyuan Lake, and her thoughts returned to the distant past.

It was the year 968 of the Red Calendar, Feng Zhao's sky was far away and quiet, the pine waves of Qingliang Mountain were swaying with the wind, the small Chu Changting and the young Yi Lunhuan sat side by side, looking at the shy warm sun in the distance together, and whispered quietly.

"Little Nizi, do you have any wishes?"

"Me, I have so many wishes!" Chu Changting pouted, but he had already seen a girl's mischievous and delicate demeanor on his beautiful face, "But I won't tell you, Bingmu, hehe!" ”

"You little woman." Yi Lunhuan glanced at her with slanted eyes, a slightly annoyed but helpless pampering look on his ice-like face, and his voice was soft and overflowing with infinite warmth, "In this way, I will tell you my wishes, and in exchange, you will also tell me your wishes, okay?" ”

"Hmm...... All right! Chu Changting pondered for a while, her big eyes flashed with a sly light, she raised her eyebrows, stared at Yi Lunhuan with a smile, and looked docile with a deferential appearance, but it always made people suspect that she was holding back bad water.

"My wish is that in the 90,000 miles of scorching land, in 372 cities, and in 7,654 counties, the evil will be blamed, the good will die well, the government will be clear, the officials will be honest, the economy will be prosperous, the culture will be prosperous, the world will be bright, the people will be peaceful, the internal and external will be stable, the four seas will come to court, and the eight directions will come to the court. The Tianzhuo royal family has left a name in the history, and Wan Ce is famous. ”

"It's complicated." Chu Changting pursed his mouth, and a look of impatience appeared on his face, "What are you doing with so many royal affairs!" My head is big when I hear it! ”

"Silly Nier." Yi Lunwan sneered, reached out to pinch Chu Changting's fleshy little face, and was ruthlessly thrown away by Chu Changting's disgust. He felt that Chu Changting was very cute at this time, and his angular face was moist and gentle, he tried to poke Chu Changting's little face again, and after failing again, he said stupidly: "Then now you should tell me your wish." ”

"Hehe, I lied to you just now, I won't tell you!" Chu Changting made an exaggerated grimace towards Yi Lunhuan, and then jumped up, wanting to escape while he was unprepared, but was picked up by Yi Lunhuan, who reacted very quickly. Chu Changting was held in the air, kicked his legs dissatisfiedly, and shouted: "Presumptuous! Hurry up and let Miss Ben down! ”

"You learned to deceive people at a young age? Let my brother teach you a lesson! Yi Lunhuan pretended to be annoyed, with a gentle hint of gloom in his voice.

"No, no, don't dare, don't dare, you let me down, I'm afraid!" Chu Changting was carried in Yi Lunhuan's hand like a chicken, and he wilted a lot, his big eyes blinked, and a trace of water vapor came out.

"Do you want to say it? To say or not to say? ”

"Tell me about it! I say, I say! ”

Seeing Chu Changting like this, Yi Lunhuan was happy in his heart, but his face was not colorful. He placed Chu Changting on the ground steadily, but still pinched her back collar to prevent her from slipping and escaping again. Chu Changting sat cross-legged on the ground like a deflated breath, and muttered in a low voice, "Really, stingy ghost." ”

"What?" Yi Lunwan looked at her wilting little figure with amusement.

"Nothing, nothing." Chu Changting glanced at him angrily, and then suddenly became serious, and said, "Miss Ben's wish is to have a couple for the rest of her life, find the person she loves for the rest of her life, and spend her life in peace and stability." ”

"Is the eldest lady of the Xiangfu family so unambitious?" Yi Lun Huanhan listened to her talk about love, his heart moved slightly, and he looked at her suspiciously with some disbelief.

"How can this be called lack of ambition? Is it only a wish that you are allowed to talk about the great cause of the country and the well-being of all the people? Should the peace and joy of the people of Shengdou be ridiculed? It is really the arrogance of the literati! Besides, how do you know what kind of easy wish is to be a couple in this life? Do you know how many people have pursued it all their lives, but they can only enter the earth with regrets. Sometimes, perhaps, such a superficial and simple wish is much more difficult to fulfill than your grand wish! ”

Yi Lunhuan was stunned for a moment after listening to what Chu Changting said, a kind of awakening like an empowerment poured down his spine, and his eyes lit up, looking at Chu Changting with mixed tastes.

After a while, the expression on his face softened, and he said softly: "Then do you know what my 'grand plan for the well-being of the people of the country' is, if it is simply said, what can it be called?" ”

"What?" Chu Changting was also stunned, and looked at Yi Lunhuan's delicate face with some puzzlement.

"I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles."

Yi Lunhuan looked at Chu Changting's childish and beautiful face seriously, and his voice was like the wind blowing the bamboo sea in a cool autumn day, and the white mist blowing the leaves made a desolate sigh.

Chu Changting opened his eyes wide and looked at the white-clothed young man who was muttering with emotion, his round little face flushed with a suspicious flush. The eyes of the two were tightly intertwined, and unknown emotions were secretly brewing in the eyes of the two of them reflecting each other's faces. She nodded thoughtfully, and then smiled brightly: "Then it seems that the two of us still have the same heart." ”

Shaken by such a bright and simple smile, Yi Lunhuan's heart jumped suddenly. He nodded, pretending to look into the distance lightly, and his voice was pious, as if he had made a wish:

"It will happen."

Will it happen? But now you have three palaces and six courtyards, and the concubines and beauties are on your side, and the jokes of a lifetime and a couple have long been disdained and thrown at your feet, so you laughed and talked about it as a child.

Even at this moment, you are to me, or rather, you are to Su Jin, but there is no trace of love, just greedy for appearance.

A hint of imperceptible sarcasm flashed on Chu Changting's face, but he was fully seen by Yi Lunhuan. He grabbed Chu Changting's waist, and his voice was a little melancholy but angry cold: "Why? ”

"I used to be young and ignorant, and I didn't talk nonsense." Chu Changting pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly, and a little tear appeared in the corners of his eyes, "Now I just think that no matter how many wives and concubines my husband has, as long as he is good, it will be fine." ”

If you say something insincere, am I really a fool? Yi Lunhuan frowned and looked at Chu Changting's false smiling face, like a withered begonia after the rain, leaving only a gorgeous but lifeless red.

The afternoon sun broke through the clouds at this time, scorching on the two of them.

Spring is gone, begonia thanks, trance is already May.

Chu Changting's tears slipped lightly and fell on Yi Lunhuan's heart, like a thousand catties.

"When I was young, I also thought that I would be a couple for the rest of my life." Yi Lunhuan reached out and stroked Chu Changting's stretched eyebrows, eyes and cheeks when he was no longer a child, and his voice was a little sad, "But later I found out that as an emperor, there are too many people who can't help themselves. I don't want to accept those concubines, it's just a last resort. ”

"But I have never regarded any of them as my wives, they are just tools for me to silence the courtiers. And you, I promise you, I will spoil you alone, I let you enjoy the glory of the six palaces. ”

"You will be the queen, my only wife."

"I promise you a couple for the rest of your life."

"For a lifetime... A couple? The memory hit Chu Changting heavily, she froze in place, muttering to herself unconsciously, and the two small backs that had once sat side by side appeared in her mind, and her heart was convulsed like blood.

"Your Majesty, are you really saying this to Su Jin?" Chu Changting blinked, cautiously probing, the tears in the corners of his eyes were not dry, and new tears fell.

"I'm speaking to my beloved." Yi Lun Hwan replied firmly.

What a beloved. Chu Changting was a little confused, she didn't understand what Yi Lunhuan's intentions were, and she didn't understand what the intentions of Emperor Yu Sujin and Yu Chu Changting were. Yi Lunhuan saw Chu Changting's expression in a trance, so he reached out and buckled Chu Changting in his arms.

The moment the two bodies were close together, Chu Changting's mind suddenly went blank. The memories of the past flooded over her, her eyes widened at a loss, and her eyes kept flashing in front of her in the palace of the October Dynasty, the thin but strong back that saved her life and hugged her tightly in her arms, the warm and solid chest of the man that night, just like this Yi Lun Huan's chest, gave her endless hope.

"But Your Majesty has only known Jin'er for two days, how can he value Jin'er so much." Chu Changting was stuffed in Yi Lunwan's arms, his voice trembling and hoarse, "It really makes Jin'er, like a dream." ”

The white-clothed young man in the dream finally returned with a smile, unloaded his killing blood, and hugged her tightly with full tenderness and affection.

But what is called out of his mouth is the name of someone else.

The name of a woman who has the same appearance as herself.

"I always feel like I've seen you somewhere. Xu is in the previous life, or on the bank of the Lechuan River, or by the bridge..... Or somewhere in this life, but I forgot about you. ”

"I'm destined."

The turbid world is noisy, the world comes and goes, and the unbreakable friendship is crowned in the name of God.

But you forgot me?

Have you forgotten Chu Changting?

Chu Changting smiled bitterly, her mind was in chaos, she still couldn't understand Yi Lunhuan after all, she couldn't understand who the friendship was paying for at the moment, she couldn't understand what the fateful forgetting was, and she couldn't understand what the complicated entanglement between the two of them was at the moment.

My name is Changting, is it destined that I can only watch people say goodbye to people all my life, watch people leave, and watch people only make me a ferry, not a destination?

Is the fortune of this world so unfair?

I hate you. I hate you for killing my father and punishing my nine clans, I hate you for destroying my face and burning my body, I hate you for killing me but I fell in love with a woman with the same face as me, I hate you for abandoning my heart and crushing me under my feet, I hate you and even forget me in the end.

"The concubine is more willing to believe that the matter is man-made." Chu Changting couldn't help choking and pretended to answer easily.

"Why?"

Because love and hate in the world have cause and effect, because love in the world is nothing but the wind blows down after all, because everyone in the world sings praises for loyalty and unswervingness, but in the blink of an eye, it is scorned as a promise.

"If there really is a reason in the world, it would be great, wouldn't it?"

Yi Lun's eyes flashed, and he hugged Chu Changting in his arms even harder.

The world is so impermanent and ridiculous. In the past, the person who believed in the victory of man was destined to win the sky with affection, and now said with affection that the letter is destined, just to let the person in his arms get a little peace of mind; In the past, the person who believed in fate the most was now firmly saying that the belief was man-made, just to make the people around him feel a little lost.

"Don't talk about that. Let's go, let's go rafting. ”
