Chapter 147
"No, I ...... I want to go back on my own. With so many people waiting for you, you should go and get busy. Xiao Yezi shook his head, deliberately ignoring the faint loss in Yunxi's eyes.
Yunxi saw that her face was pale, and she was also uncomfortable in her heart, and she couldn't say anything: "Okay, then...... I'll go first. Tonight's celebration feast, you ......"
"I'm not going, you ...... You guys have fun. Xiao Ye said.
Yunxi snorted, looked at her again, and then turned to leave.
It wasn't until Yunxi left that Xiao Yezi could breathe a sigh of relief - in fact, how could she not understand Yunxi's mood. It's just that Yang Yizhao is still suffering in Yanjin, how can she turn a blind eye.
She returned to the tent alone and silently packed her clothes. One person flashed in, it was Yun Huan.
"Everyone is rejoicing, why are you bored here alone?"
"Pack up and get ready to go to Yandu City." Xiao Yezi kept in his hands and answered.
“…… You have a conscience. Yun Huan glanced at her and said softly.
Xiao Yezi sighed, and the hand holding the clothes also stopped: "Now that Yan Yan is dead, there must be a big chaos in Yandu City, and the Yanjin people probably can't take care of Yang Yizhao for a while, and this is a good time to look for him." ”
"Are you going to go alone? Don't you need to borrow some people from Yunxi? Yun Huan asked.
Xiao Yezi was silent for a moment: "...... Not intended. She continued to pack her clothes and ignored Yun Huan.
Yun Huan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stepped forward, held the clothes in her hand with one hand, and said, "What are you running away from?" ”
Xiao Yezi bit her lip: "I didn't run away, you take your hand." ”
Yun Huan didn't retreat at all: "You didn't escape, you just looked into my eyes." ”
Xiao Yezi was annoyed in her heart, and turned her head: "What do I see you doing?" ”
"I'm afraid that you will do too much drama and sink into it yourself." Yun Huan said coldly.
Xiao Yezi shook his hand and said in a low voice: "Then what do you want me to do?" She jerked her head up, "I'm a person, not a tool!" If you want to see a person who has excellent control over emotions, who can fulfill your desire for power, and who can keep his true heart when he retreats, I'm sorry, it's not me. I suspect you can't do it yourself, so why do you want to ask me. ”
"Who says I can't do it? I ......," Yun Huan gritted his teeth and said, "Everything I do is for the sake of this world." ”
"You want your world, but I only want a white-headed person." Xiao Yezi waved his hand, "Please." ”
Yun Huan was speechless for a while, and finally snorted hatefully and walked away.
Xiao Yezi looked at Yun Huan's disappearing back, and felt sad.
After packing her bags, she walked out the door and smiled when she saw the laughter outside.
She sat at the door, watching the people coming and going, and greeted her from time to time, but she only had Yang Yizhao in her heart.
This anxious heart prevented her from fitting into any of the joyous events.
When I say goodbye to Yunxi tonight, I will go to Yandu City to find Yang Yizhao, and I don't care what princess she is.
And so, that's it.
It's just that she doesn't know - Yunxi is right outside the door, taking in all of this. The shadow of the leaves was on the surface of Yunxi, and his expression could not be seen clearly, only a slight sigh of his voice was heard.
-- Split --
This night, Yunxi was very drunk.
In the eyes of the generals, the coach was rarely in high spirits, stepped off the high platform, and fought with the generals.
But Yunxi knew that this was all an illusion.
This night, he knew that if she was not around, then no one would accompany him to appreciate all these achievements. If no one can appreciate it, there is no point in him asking for all this.
But what could he say? He couldn't say anything.
Only intoxication may be exchanged for a little solace in the illusion.
When the feast was over, he was helped back to his bed.
When I raised my eyes, I clearly saw that Xiao Yezi was standing at the door of the tent and waiting.
Watch her slowly walk over and take him from everyone's hands.
Watch as she supports herself hard and places herself on the couch.
Watch as she turns around to fetch a handkerchief and wipe the wine marks from her lips for herself.
She was obviously so attentive and meticulous, but he didn't feel the slightest satisfaction.
Because she's leaving. These...... It was all the last trace of comfort she took the initiative to leave for him before parting.
He reached out to cover his face and smiled helplessly. Under the palm of his hand, his smile was no longer as light and soft as before, only the heart-rending pain of parting.
Taking a deep breath, he let go of his hand, looked at her gently, and smiled slightly: "You are leaving again." ”
The hand she wiped for him paused in the air, not daring to touch his eyes at the moment, she lowered her head and said in a low voice: "...... Be. ”
He stared at her and said softly, "...... In today's victory, my heart melts when I see them call you princess, you know? ”
She bowed her head and was silent, not daring to speak.
“…… At that moment, I really thought that I had a chance to atone for my sins. ”
She fought a cold war, still afraid to speak.
“…… As long as you forgive me, I will definitely be good to you tenfold, hundredfold, thousandfold, ten thousand. ”
She frowned tightly, pinched her right hand with her left hand, and didn't dare to speak.
“…… Now it seems like I don't have a chance, do I? ”
She closed her eyes, and the corners of her eyes grew moist.
He put his hand over her left hand, pulled her left hand away from her right hand, and sighed, "It will hurt." ”
In an instant, tears welled up in her eyes.
"If it's for atonement, you don't need to be so nice to me."
“…… I want to be nice to you, you understand? He reached out and stroked her cheek, "If it's just guilt, I won't see you again." Goodbye to you, just because I miss you. ”
Her hand was involuntarily wrapped between his five fingers, and the pair of phoenix eyes staring at her were as deep as the sea: "I know that you will definitely go to find Yang Yizhao, and I will not stop you." I know he can give you everything you want. But I want you to know that I only have you in my heart. Today, and in the future, it's just you. If...... If he gives up on you in the future, I ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he coughed violently.
Her heart was like a knife, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand to soothe him on his chest for a long time, and waited until he was a little more comfortable before she said, "...... Why didn't you tell me in the first place...... That time because of drugs? ”
"How do you know?" He was taken aback.
She glanced at him complainingly: "Last time I left the palace without permission, I heard the conversation between you and Xue Tianwang......"
“…… I dare not say. He smiled bitterly, "This is all my own sin, and it has affected you, how can I say it." ”
"What's going on? If...... If it's your secret, it's okay if you don't tell it. ”
He immediately smiled and said softly: "In front of you, Xiao Yunxi can have no secrets. Ahem...... I'm sure you've also heard the legend of Biling. ”
She was stunned: "Bi Ling? ”
He bowed his head: "Yes, Bi Ling." ”
She said: "I heard Yang Yizhao say that according to legend, the Zhao Dynasty, the predecessor of Zhaoyin, founded the dynasty because of the power of Biling. It's just a legend, and I don't know if it's true or not? ”
He smiled: "There are always three points of truth in legends. It's like you once joked that you were related to the princess, but you never thought that in the dark, you were also right. ”
"What? Do I really have a relationship with the princess? She opened her eyes and looked incredulous, "I'm just an ordinary orphan girl from a small village, how can I have anything to do with the princess?" Think about it and know it's impossible. ”
He smiled: "Do you know the story of Emperor Jie and Concubine Hua?" ”
She nodded: "This story, we people in Nianfei Village know it." According to legend, Concubine Hua's hometown is Nianfei Village. Nianfei Village was not called this name originally, but because Concubine Hua was born here and made her career here, the name was changed. ”
"This Concubine Hua was actually not born here in the first place." He said in a deep voice, "She was originally from the Ling Yue Sect, but it was only because she stopped here when she was young and met Emperor Jie, that Emperor Jie announced to the world that this was her hometown. ”
"Even if it's not really my hometown, it'...... What does this have to do with me? ”
"I didn't know it at first, until I found this silk." He took out a silk silk from his bosom and unfolded it in front of her, "This silk was excavated from your grandmother's grave. ”
"You...... You actually went to my grandmother's grave? She was dumbfounded.
He was slightly embarrassed and coughed: "I don't dare to tell you if I have to...... But luckily, something was found. ”
She glared at him, "...... What did you find? ”
"This Concubine Hua ...... Actually, it's your grandmother. ”
"Impossible! My grandmother ...... She...... She...... She ......," she was startled, and her speech was not neat, "she is just an ordinary country woman, where could she be a princess?" ”
He tapped the silk silk in his hand: "This is from your grandmother's tomb, and it is your grandmother's suicide note." ”
"My grandmother...... A suicide note? Xiao Yezi hurriedly took it, stared left and right, and saw that the silk was full of ghost-like words, and he couldn't understand a word, "This...... What's all written here? ”
He took the silk silk and said warmly, "This is the text of the Lingyue Dynasty...... If you don't understand, I'll read it to you. ”
"My name is Le Xinghua, and I am the third-generation medicine envoy of the Ling Yue Sect. Fifteen years ago, I was an innocent girl, and I was ordered by the sect leader to come to the Central Plains to collect medicinal herbs for pharmaceutical research. I didn't want to go to the Central Plains this time, and I met the evil star of my life, so I will never know my mother country from then on. ”
"It was my sixteenth birthday, and I got up early in the morning and went to the mountains to collect medicine, but I sprained my foot. There was no one in the mountains, and it was raining freshly, and the road was slippery in the rain, and I was seriously injured and difficult to walk, so I had to nest alone in the col to recuperate. Seeing that it was getting late and the clouds were thick, I had nowhere to hide, and I was in sorrow. Suddenly, a noble man came up from the bottom of the mountain road, and when he saw that I was injured, he kindly helped me. ”
"The two of us supported each other, and came to the small village at the foot of the mountain, and found a dilapidated house to live in. Maybe I was born in a foreign land, or maybe I was dressed differently from everyone in the Central Plains, and he could see at a glance that I was not from the Central Plains. ”
"I was rescued by him, and naturally I was honest with him and told him who I was. Ordinary people will inevitably look at me with strange eyes when they hear that I am a foreigner, but he does not care at all, but talks with me all night. ”
"He was very handsome, very good at talking, noble and attentive in his every move. Perhaps it was fate that I had feelings for him. When he heard that I was good at developing herbs, he invited me to visit his hometown, saying that he knew many famous doctors and could help me in my herbal research. ”
"I was fond of him, and I heard that he could help me with my research and development, so I naturally went with him. He hired a car to follow me all the way to the capital, and took care of him all the way. I was so fascinated that I couldn't help myself, and I made a heart on the way. It wasn't until he arrived in Lanjing City that he identified himself, saying that he was the emperor of the Zhao Dynasty, and his real name was Zhao Jie. He said that he liked me very much and wanted to take me into the palace and take me as a princess. I blamed me for being dizzy at the time, and I thought he was sincere, so I agreed to his request in a daze. ”
"In the beginning, he was really nice to me and took good care of me everywhere. I accompanied him to enjoy the dance and scenery every day, and I really had an unforgettable happy time. But then he gradually became less and less happy, and he didn't know what to worry about every day, and he was sad all day long, sighing for a long time. ”
I couldn't bear it, so I asked him why he was worried. He shirked it a few times, and only then did he tell me in embarrassment when I asked him that he was developing a new drug for longevity and longevity, and that he had recently gone wrong and had not made progress. ”
"I'm good at developing medicinal herbs, so it's only my duty to help him. Late one night, he led me to the corner of the Imperial Garden, and I realized that in this inconspicuous corner, there were several Imperial Spirit Trees planted that should not belong here. ”
"The Imperial Spirit Tree is my Southwest Sacred Tree, originating in the deep waters of the Southwest, with a deep color and deep texture, it is the foundation of the Gu cultivation and Gu control commonly used in the Ling Yue Sect. He took great pains to plant a large number of Imperial Spirit Trees here, naturally in order to cultivate Gu worms. I asked him why he was planting the Imperial Spirit Wood here, and he didn't hide it, taking out a brocade box and showing it to me. ”
"I wanted to find a bright place to open the box, but he stopped me, saying that this thing can only be seen in the dark, and as soon as I see the light, it will immediately turn into powder and green smoke and disappear without a trace. This is a sacred relic handed down by his ancestors, and now there is only one box, and there is no supply. ”
"I opened the box, and I saw that there were several stiff ice-blue transparent insect corpses stored in the box—I had grown up in the Lingyue Sect since I was a child, and I knew many Gu worms, and I could tell at a glance that this was the Blue Blood Silkworm recorded in the Lingyue Sect's classics. This was originally the supreme holy relic of the Ling Yue Sect, why did it end up in the Central Plains? And became the ancestral heirloom of his royal family? But I didn't know, so I asked him. ”
"He told me that his ancestors were able to do so not only because they had the best military in the world, but also because they had the strongest military in the world. And the secret of this military strength is this Imperial Spirit Wood and Blue Blood Silkworm. ”
"I have heard people say that if this blue blood silkworm is successfully cultivated, supplemented by the method of refining and urging, it can improve its own strength in a short period of time. I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect to see myself today, as a person who studied medicine Gu, how could I not be moved? ”
