Chapter 4: Warmth Before Parting
In the evening, the news that Yun Jing's maid Qinghe had been given death for poisoning the crown princess reached Ye Jin's ears, and she stumbled out, but was stopped by the guards at the door.
"Your Highness has an order, please recuperate in your room, and you should not go out."
"I want to see him." How can Qinghe die.
The guards just bowed their heads and repeated "forgiveness", but refused to budge.
After a moment of confrontation, Ye Jin, who had not yet dissipated her medicinal properties, was a little physically exhausted, leaning against the door and panting with difficulty, but the guards still refused to let her go out, nor did she want to pass the word, so she had to pull out the hairpin on her head and put it against her neck.
Seeing that the guards were still hesitating, she reluctantly sent the hairpin into a few points, and the red blood beads came out, and she said sharply: "I want to see him!" ”
The guards finally went to pass it on.
Ming Zisu quickly rushed over, exuding a thick anger, as if venting, snatched the hairpin in her hand, threw it away, bent down and picked her up and walked to the inner room, the hand around her waist was very strong, she was very painful but didn't dare to make a sound, hesitated to stretch out her hand and gently wrap her neck around his neck, buried her head in his neck socket, and apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry......"
Ming Zisu's figure stiffened, paused, and gradually relaxed the strength in his hand.
"It has nothing to do with Qinghe, let her go." Ye Jin said in a muffled voice.
"It was my father's intention to execute her."
"That'...... I'm going to see the emperor! "She couldn't watch an innocent person die here because of her.
"No, I won't let you go to see your father, as for Qinghe, I don't plan to let her go, she must die." His grip tightened suddenly, and she looked up in surprise to meet the fierceness in his eyes.
"Even if you spend your whole life on the sickbed, you can only be on my side, so although you make your little cleverness, I promise that your plan will never succeed in this matter. This time, Qinghe must die, and he was given death for poisoning the crown princess, and next time, who else will die because of your cleverness, I can't guarantee it. ”
Ye Jin's face turned white, and her heart suddenly cooled, it turned out that he had already understood her thoughts.
Ming Zisu stepped in front of the bed in a few steps, threw her into the bed, randomly bullied her up, pressed her into the soft bed, buried her head in her neck, and suddenly opened her mouth and bit her fiercely.
She didn't dare to move, silently bearing his wrath.
"I'm sorry." After a long time, she finally mustered up the courage to apologize in a low voice.
In exchange for not responding to him, she softened her voice uneasily and begged him: "I was wrong, you let Qinghe go, she didn't hurt me, I don't want to carry a human life to live down, if she really dies because of me, I won't be at ease in this life." "She just wanted to miss the canonization, and she didn't think about killing anyone.
"What should I do with you? Come back to me, is it that hard? He hugged her hard and asked, the disappointment that could not be hidden.
Ye Jin couldn't answer, and Ming Zisu didn't speak again. Until nightfall, the room gradually darkened, no one disturbed the silence and darkness of the room, and before falling asleep, Ye Jin seemed to vaguely hear him whispering: "From beginning to end, all I want is a you." ”
A dreamless night, Ye Jin slept peacefully, it was not yet dawn when he woke up, there was a sound of Ming Zisu's even breathing on his side, he seemed to be sleeping unsteadily, his brows were slightly locked, his slender eyelashes were trembling slightly with his breathing, the bridge of his nose was very straight, and his lips were a little light, she couldn't help but stretch out her fingers to gently smooth the folds between his eyebrows, and then slowly descended along the peak of her nose, stopping at his soft lips and rubbing back and forth mischievously.
Caught off guard, his fingertips were caught - Ming Zisu woke up at some point, staring at her silently with his eyes open, his eyes were as deep as the stars reflected in a deep pool, and the brilliance flowed.
Ye Jin breathed a little, his heart beat like a drum, the flush instantly spread from his face to the base of his neck, and he wanted to withdraw his hand in a panic, but he was quickly held by Ming Zisu, he hooked his lips and smiled, and the hand holding her pulled her closer slightly, the emotion in his eyes was so strong that it was about to overflow, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Close your eyes." ”
The lovesickness that has been endured for seven years has turned into a fierce lingering at this moment.
The remnant candle was about to burn out, Ye Jin was very tired and fell asleep, but Ming Zisu was uneasy, the joy of regaining it was only he could experience, staring at her quiet sleeping face with satisfaction, his eyes were full of pampering, until the sky was twilight, he quietly withdrew his arm from under her neck, got out of bed lightly and changed into court clothes, and returned to the bed before leaving, looking at her mottled red marks in the quilt, her eyes deepened, and she dropped a kiss on her forehead with some distress, and then reluctantly went out.
As soon as Mingzi Su left, Ye Jin opened her eyes, looked at the slowly closed door, there was a strong nostalgia and reluctance in her eyes, she endured the soreness on her body and got dressed, sat for a while, and took out a piece of white jade Jue from her arms, and the wedding book that was regarded as a treasure, held it in the palm of her hand and rubbed it reluctantly for a long time, and finally made up her mind and solemnly put it on the pillow, reluctantly got up and walked to the door, and walked back hesitantly, hesitating after all, she was still reluctant, picked up the marriage book and stuffed it back into her arms, and left the jade, Resolutely left.
After a lapse of seven years, Ming Zisu once again experienced the taste of returning to his heart like an arrow, someone in the family was waiting for him to go back, he didn't even go back to the East Palace, and hurried back to the other garden without changing his court clothes, his steps were never easier, causing people to whisper along the way, but he didn't realize it, and before returning to the room, he also went to the back kitchen to order breakfast, and added a warning: "Prepare some spicy food, she likes to eat some spicy food." ”
After thinking about it, he retracted the foot that had stepped out of the door and added: "Don't be too spicy, it hurts your stomach." ”
Leaving the cooks looking at each other, was it His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who had the spring breeze on his face just now?
