Chapter 36: Bad News

Under the rain and the breeze, sweeping away the stuffiness of the past few days, Mu Siyan stood by the door, staring blankly at the stagnant water in the low-lying part of the path, and the raindrops fell on it, stirring up layers of ripples.

"Sister, it's fine."

Mu Sixian took her sister's hand, looked up and down, saw her pot-bellied, and joked with a smile: "Xian'er, you are inconvenient now, and it is raining outside, if there is anything wrong, my sister is not good to explain to His Royal Highness the King Liu." She saw Mu Sixian shyly lower her head, her cheeks flushed, and she shook her head happily.

Stepping into the inner room, the two sisters sat on the couch together, laughing and saying homely, Mu Siyan saw her sister's hesitation, and asked softly: "Xian'er, do you have something to say?" ”

"Sister, me?" Mu Sixian looked left and right.

Mu Siyan understood, put down the teacup, and directly sent He'er, Ming'er and the others away, and asked with a smile: "Xian'er, can you say it now?" ”

"Sister, I heard that Liang Guoshen Wang Xue has passed away."

Hearing this, Mu Siyan's face changed suddenly, her hands trembled slightly, her consciousness began to become blurred, and she vaguely heard: "Last night, I heard His Royal Highness say: The clan of Liang Guo launched a mutiny because he was dissatisfied with the new policy, but fortunately, King Shen guarded the palace and escorted him, and Emperor Liang survived, but when King Shen resisted the enemy, he was wounded by an arrow......

Her eyes were covered by a layer of moisture, and Mu Siyan muttered to herself: How, impossible, he? Xiao Yu?

"Sister, what's wrong with you? Could it be that your original sweetheart was really the King Shen of Liang Kingdom? Mu Sixian pretended to be flustered, and asked with an incredulous expression: "When I heard the name 'Xiao Yu' at that time, I only felt familiar, this?" ”

Eyeballs slid down her cheeks, and Mu Siyan choked up: "Xian'er, do you know when it happened?" ”

"I don't know!" Mu Sixian shook her head again and again: "I only heard from the prince that King Shen was buried on the fifteenth day of this month, and the Emperor of Liang posthumously named him ...... in recognition of his merits."

Before she finished speaking, Mu Siyan stood up and shouted loudly: "He'er, He'er, what day is today?" ”

He'er ran in in a panic and panted, "It's twelve today." Seeing that Mu Siyan's expression was wrong, she asked with concern, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Mu Siyan seemed to have lost her backbone, walked to the window in a daze, looked north, and ignored anyone's call.

Kapok can't withstand the wind and rain, and it has broken away from the sepals and drifted into the puddle, and the red flowers are soaked by the clear rain, which looks extra gorgeous.

The carriage stopped, and Chen Jing had just stepped out of the canopy of the carriage, and he saw a carriage moving away, frowning slightly.

Xingji held an umbrella, saw the master staring at the direction where the carriage left, and rushed to speak: "Lord, the slave looks at the carriage as if it is staying in the palace!" ”

Stepping into the stairs, Chen Jingsui held an oil-paper umbrella by himself, walked through the hall, and walked towards Yiqing Garden, just outside the garden gate, he saw Mu Siyan standing by the window, stunned, Chen Jingsui looked in the direction of her sight, the delicate beauty of kapok came into view, and he understood in his heart and smiled reluctantly.

"Lord Wang, Antai Yongfu."

He saw He'er's panicked expression and said in a muffled voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"Lord Wang." He'er was so frightened that she fell to her knees, and told Chen Jingsui everything that happened just now, and at the end of the day, she sobbed: "Lord Wang, what should I do, Miss doesn't pay attention to anyone now, she has been standing by the window, and it is useless for anyone to persuade her." ”

Mu Siyan heard a rush of footsteps, and in a trance, she blurted out in a daze: "You're here?" ”

"Yan'er, what are you thinking?"

"The flowers are gone, and they are falling again." Mu Siyan tried her best to restrain herself, put her hand on the window edge, and clenched it into a fist.

Chen Jingsui took her hand and said with a smile: "There is always a time when flowers bloom and fall, why should you be sad, when spring opens next year, kapok will bloom again." He wiped the corners of Mu Siyan's eyes with a brocade and whispered: Little fool.

He took Mu Siyan into his arms, and the two looked at Kapok at the same time, each with their own thoughts, and they were silent.
