721: Just to meet you
"It's so far away that I have to receive a letter to get you back. Ji Hongye's expression was calm.
"It's all an excuse, you can write one a day. ”
Ji Hongye sighed, and didn't tell her what he had hidden in his heart. It's not that he doesn't want to write to her, but every time he picks up the pen, he thinks about her, and then he doesn't have the heart to do things.
The new emperor ascended the throne, and the forces of all parties were ready to move, and he also racked his brains to balance the situation. He couldn't be distracted at that time, so he didn't allow himself to think of her all the time.
If these words were dissected to her bluntly, she would probably think that he was an indifferent schemer, and when reason always came before emotion.
In fact, it is precisely because he cares about her and the children that he should not be distracted. Only by doing things wholeheartedly can we achieve twice the result with half the effort.
He is very aware of his importance to Ah Jin and the child, he must live, and the Ji family must also be a famous family.
Only in this case will they be able to live a carefree life. If he puts himself in danger, who can they count on?
Although it is not a troubled time, he is the only one who is willing to do his best to protect their mother and son. He should be more cautious when the responsibility is heavy, because he can't make mistakes, otherwise he can't afford the result.
Nalan Jinxiu would feel sleepy every time after a meal, and now that she was in her third brother's arms, she was even more sleepy. But they had not seen him for a long time, and she had much to say to him in her heart.
So he forced himself to fall asleep and whispered: "Third brother, we have been separated for so long, but what do you find difficult? If so, you tell me, maybe I can help." ”
Ji Hongye saw that she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, so he lowered his head and pecked her forehead, and said softly: "You don't have to think about other things, you just need to sleep well now." ”
"I'm a little afraid to sleep,"
"Why?"
"You've been with me for a long time, and I'm afraid that when I wake up, I'll find that it's another dream. ”
Ji Hongye was a little sad by her words, he tightened the person in his arms again, and said lightly: "No." ”
Nalan Jinxiu was relieved when she heard what he said, smelled the familiar green bamboo fragrance on his body, and gradually fell asleep.
She fell asleep quickly, but Ji Hongye couldn't sleep for a long time because of what she just said. He was naturally reluctant to let her leave Jinling, but the thrilling before the new emperor ascended the throne is still fresh in his memory.
He was really afraid that she would be frightened, and he was afraid that someone would calculate her. The days after the separation were difficult for them, but she was safe after all.
Ji Hongye kept holding her, feeling the sense of fulfillment that she brought when she was nested in his arms. He certainly didn't want to be separated if he could......
Following.
Nalan Jinxiu woke up in Ji Hongye's arms, and she slept very soundly this night. Maybe it's because the third brother is by her side, or it may be because she can't breathe well all the time when she is approaching the birth period, so she doesn't sleep well.
Ji Hongye is a very diligent person, and Nalan Jinxiu rarely has the opportunity to watch him sleep like this. Many times, when she wakes up, there is no one around her.
I slept so deeply today, I must have been tired from the journey. Nalan Jinxiu didn't want to wake him up, so he didn't dare to move, and just looked at him quietly.
Even in his sleep, Ji Hongye maintained a high degree of vigilance, a habit he had cultivated over the years, and it had been deeply rooted. Feeling that there were eyes staring at him, he slowly opened his eyes and met the watery eyes of the person in his arms.
"Early. His voice was still hoarse as if he had just woken up.
"Early. Nalan Jinxiu's voice was so crisp that she had already woken up, and she didn't feel sleepy at all.
Ji Hongye stretched out his hand to pick up the bed curtain, looked outside, then put the bed curtain down, turned around and continued to hug her, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you wake up so early?"
"Haven't you slept for a long time?"
"It's just dawn, and I can sleep a little longer. Ji Hongye closed his eyes as he spoke, he was only now feeling tired, and he wanted to sleep lazily and recuperate.
"Are you tired?" Nalan Jinxiu's cheek rubbed against his shoulder, and his voice was very soft, sounding a bit like a coquette.
Ji Hongye pulled the quilt up for her again, and replied, "A little." ”
He was in a hurry on the road, but he slept late last night, and he is not in good spirits now. I was thinking about sleeping for a while, but with this in my arms, it seems that I don't feel sleepy at all.
Ji Hongye reopened his eyes, brushed the broken hair around Nalan Jinxiu's ears, and said softly: "You are a little talker, do you have something to say to me?"
"Actually, it doesn't matter, it's okay to say it later. Nalan Jinxiu thought, she hadn't seen him for so long, didn't she have a bunch of things to say.
"You say, I'll listen. ”
"It doesn't matter, you better go to sleep first!" Nalan Jinxiu felt a little bored, so she subconsciously used her fingers to draw circles on Ji Hongye's chest.
Ji Hongye reached out and grabbed her wrist, inadvertently a little strong. He whispered, "How am I going to sleep like this?"
Nalan Jinxiu was hurt by his grip, so he pursed his lips and whispered: "I don't draw circles, you let go of me first, it hurts." ”
Ji Hongye came back to his senses and hurriedly let go of her. Seeing that she was rubbing her wrists, he rubbed her gently with his own hands, and said slowly, "Did it hurt you?"
"Sort of. ”
"Then the husband will rub it for you. ”
Ji Hongye's craftsmanship is still very good, and Nalan Jinxiu squinted his eyes comfortably. She still rested her head on his shoulder and whispered, "Third brother, when do you plan to go back?"
"Look at the situation. Of course, Ji Hongye wanted to take her back with the child, but he was worried that the child was too young to stand the long journey.
"How long can you stay here?" Nalan Jinxiu was more concerned about this question.
"Not sure yet. ”
The thought that maybe it wouldn't be a few days before they would be separated again, Nalan Jinxiu felt uncomfortable in his heart. She didn't know what was wrong with her, she was obviously not a sentimental person, but at this time, she was a little sad.
Ji Hongye saw that her eyes were red, and he quickly reached out and pinched her cheek, with a slight smile in his voice: "Why are you crying all of a sudden?"
Nalan Jinxiu felt a little embarrassed, she was not a child, why did she cry about this matter. She gradually found that the older she gets, the more she can't stand parting.
"Not really. Her voice was a little hoarse.
Ji Hongye felt very ironed in his heart, the woman he put in his heart was far away from him for a while. He was afraid that he wouldn't come back, so he had to lock her up by his side.
Fortunately, she was just confused for a while, and finally returned to him. Only then did he realize that only she could fill his empty heart.
"Don't cry, you've just given birth, and crying is not good for your eyes. ”
"Hmm. Nalan Jinxiu nodded, and his two arms wrapped tightly around his waist, looking very close and dependent.
Ji Hongye lowered his head and kissed her gently, and then hugged her tightly in his arms. He thought about the time when he was blind, she treated his eyes, and ended up in the palace of King Hui.
This was the last thing he wanted to remember, but it was also the one he remembered most clearly. He often wondered if he couldn't let King Hui lose everything in this life, and life was worse than death, would his life never be fulfilled?
He didn't know exactly what the answer was. It would take a lot of time for this matter to let go, and he didn't know. All he knew was that Ah Jin had to stay with him, and he wouldn't allow anyone to hurt her.
"Third brother. Nalan Jinxiu called softly.
"Huh?" Ji Hongye replied, and the tail note rose slightly to bring out a thick doting.
"It's fine, I just wanted to call you. ”
Ji Hongye smiled: "Silly girl." ”
"How long have we been together?" Nalan Jinxiu felt a little weak when she heard the title of silly girl. She is in her twenties, she is a mother of three children, where is she still a girl?
"Generally speaking, more than ten years. The reason why Ji Hongye answered like this was because he had always had regrets in his heart.
Time is gone, and they could have walked through these days together day and night, but because of creation, they didn't spend much time together.
Nalan Jinxiu held his hand and played with his fingers. She whispered, "But why do I always have the feeling that we've only been together for a short time?"
"Isn't that good? It proves that our minds are the same, and they haven't changed over time. What Ji Hongye thought in his heart was that maybe it was because so much time was spent on separation.
Nalan Jinxiu looked up at Ji Hongye and said, "Actually, if you think about it, life is quite short. However, for decades, there are still so many things to experience, and there are not many days to stay together. I felt like I couldn't get enough of it.
Before I met you, I always felt that life didn't seem to have any purpose. When I came back to life, I was very confused, I didn't know why I didn't die, did I want revenge if I lived?
At that time, I really wanted to kill Zong Xuanyi, and I wanted him to taste the pain of losing everything. But I'm just a weak woman, and there's only so much I can do, but if I can't get revenge, then why should I survive?
Later, I found out that God made me live again, and he naturally had his reasons. It is the hope that I can meet you, and that I can make up for the regrets of my previous life and live a good life.
I also wondered if I was entrusted to someone else, and if I was going to go down the same path again, but every time I had such thoughts, I felt that I had failed you.
I know how well you treat me, that's why I shouldn't look at you like that. I know that the incident when I was trapped in the Huiwang Mansion has always been a knot that you can't untie, but I hope you can let go.
I know that wasn't your intention, and I made the choice for you. And the main reason why I am suffering from those torments is because I am under the Command of the Clouds, which is my own choice, and it has nothing to do with you.
So, the Order shouldn't be a burden on you. ”
