Chapter 20: The Rest of the Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes
Dugu Yun stood on the tall building, looking at the beautiful rivers and mountains at the very edge of the Li Kingdom, the scenery was beautiful, just like a woman with a veil, it was as refreshing as a woman, and she couldn't help but want to explore. He was waiting, waiting for the news he least wanted to hear.
Lan Yun, who was panting, looked at the person standing in the wind, and sighed very much, feeling that this person must be a god in the sky. Lan Yun looked in the direction of Dugu Yun, and the rising sun seemed to be nothing more than that.
The two were only an arm's length, Lan Yun suddenly stepped forward and hugged Dugu Yun and said, "Dugu Yun, I hope we can go on like this forever." β
Lan Yun suddenly remembered Lan Yi, her father who would quarrel when they met, but even if she was trained every day, she still felt at ease. But he just left, and walked peacefully in his sleep. She remembered the day she saw Lan Yi's corpse and felt as if the world had collapsed. At that time, she looked at it in a daze, the corners of her eyes were sour, but she couldn't help but raise her somewhat wooden face, she was thinking that she must make the people in front of her feel at ease for the last time.
She likes Dugu Yun, but even Dugu Yun can't give her that peace of mind, on the contrary, she always feels that she has gained and lost.
Jin'er looked downstairs at the vague figure standing at the top and was a little worried, as soon as she saw Lan Yun, she would think of Lan Yi, the person who carried everything by herself. Even if you care about others, don't say it. He once said, "Jin'er, it's distressing that you are so sensible, I always hope that Yun'er is like you, but every time I look at you, I always want you to be like Yun'er, you should learn to mess around." β
At that time, Jin'er didn't know what kind of mood she was feeling, but she never forgot what he said to her before he died, "I am not related to your father by blood, but I am more compatible than my own brother, he kept calling your name when he died in my arms, I know what he wants to say." I dare to bet on Yun'er's life but not on you, because I know that I may not be able to win. At that time, Lan Yi looked at Jin'er with red eyes, and there was indescribable kindness and care in his eyes.
Lan Yi thought he was going calmly, but in Jin'er's opinion, that person was too unwilling.
Until now, Jin'er didn't know what kind of feelings she had for Lan Yun's father and daughter, because there were too many of them, and her scattered thoughts couldn't help but return to the white and red figures.
Dugu Yun felt that the embrace in front of him was unusually warm, and responded lightly, "Yes, it will always be." β
Lan Yun grinned, looked at Dugu Yun and said, "Do you have anything sad, if you have anything, you can tell me." β
Dugu Yun buried his head between Lan Yun's neck, and said in a low voice, "Yun'er, my father will ...... the night we leave" Dugu Yun never said the following words.
Lan Yun was shocked, Dugu Yun didn't finish speaking, but he paid attention to it. Not long ago, Duguchi also said that he was going to Bingzhou to live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes, he said, "Yun'er, now Dad really doesn't worry about anything, you can still live well without my care." β
Hearing Duguchi's words, Lan Yun was very stunned, she knew that Duguchi still had a lot of things to do. He wanted to go to Bingzhou, which he had never set foot in all those years, he wanted to see Xu Yan, and he even wanted to stay away from Lidu.
But he had done none of these things.
At this moment, Lan Yun couldn't help crying, and her tears fell down one by one. With a whimpering voice, he said, "Don't be sad, Dad definitely doesn't want us to be like this." β
Dugu Yun frowned, looked up at the person crying like a child in front of him, and said helplessly: "I didn't cry, you became a tearful person first." β
Lan Yun reached out and touched her tears, "It's the wind that blinds the eyes." β
"The past is gone, and we will never go back to Rito, okay? It is here that they live the life they envy. Lan Yun asked wistfully.
"Yun'er, there are some things that we can't do if we want to. But I will definitely accompany you when I have the opportunity in the future. Dugu Yun looked at the sun in the sky that was gradually revealing its light, and his eyes were cold.
"Let's go back! Today's news should be coming soon. Dugu Yun took Lan Yun's hand and said.
Sure enough, as Dugu Yun expected, Li Du's messenger came to Yuanyang, with the news he didn't want to hear. I saw that the man was a little tired and said, "Childe, the master is gone, please go back and preside over the overall situation." β
Dugu Yun said with a smile, "Hmph, it's time to go back." The strong man who delivered the letter glanced at Dugu Yun very incomprehensibly, but soon regained his expressionless appearance.
Emperor Li did not investigate the cause of Dugu Chi's death, but said very sadly, "Dugu Chi and I have lived together for decades...... Before Emperor Li finished speaking, the head of the Ling family hurriedly said, "The emperor does not have to be sad, Wei Chen feels that Dugu Yun should be transferred back to sacrifice Dugu Chi's spirit in the sky" said generous passion, as if he knew Emperor Li's intentions.
"With this in mind, Aiqing's proposal makes me feel at ease!" Emperor Li didn't mind the rudeness of the Ling family master, he had already gotten used to it over the years.
"Weichen is just anxious about the emperor's urgency." The old man was still in good spirits.
Emperor Li looked at the old man in front of him, this person was not only a minister, he was also his own teacher, and most of what he knew was taught by the person in front of him. He vaguely remembered the way Old Lady Ling taught himself at that time, and he didn't even remember when the relationship between the two began to become what it is now.
"Do you remember how you taught me that day?" Emperor Li stared thoughtfully at the person in front of him. The quiet in the luxurious and majestic palace was a little scary.
I saw the old man say slowly, "It's been a long time ago, I can't remember it anymore," he stretched out his hand to stroke his gray beard, and looked at his most proud protΓ©gΓ©.
"Yes! It's been too long for me to remember. Emperor Li turned around and said, "If you have nothing to do, just retreat!" β
After Old Man Ling left, Emperor Li murmured: "I will leave one by one, but I will leave some mess for me, and I will not be safe when I leave." β
At this time, Lan Yun and the others were rushing back, and they didn't even have much rest along the way, too many things had happened during this time.
Lan Yun secretly wondered if Emperor Li knew Dugu Yun's true identity, and whether their father and son would recognize each other! There is no reason for the panic of the heart, those things are too complicated, no matter how you can't figure it out, it's like a mess.
"Dugu Yun, people who want to live a peaceful life live so ups and downs, and people who are uneasy and calm live so peacefully, you can tell me why this is!" Lan Yun suddenly said curiously.
"You! It doesn't matter what others want to do with us, just take care of yourself when you go back to Lidu. Dugu Yun replied to Lan Yun with some impatience.
The hometown is even more timid, and Dugu Yun only now understands the meaning of this sentence, but a few days are as difficult as a few years. Before, he had ambitions and ideals, and power was just dispensable in his eyes, and he could even watch the Ling family dominate, but now it was different.
Lan Yun listened to the wind outside, listened to Dugu Yun's shallow breathing, but couldn't sleep, and the night came quietly and slipped away in a hurry.
