Chapter 66: A Happy Life
Thinking of Fenghua, Ruoxin's actions were slightly paused.
After the sacrifice, Fenghua was taken back by Emperor Kelan, and there was no news since. Worried about Fenghua in her heart, thinking of the serious injury suffered by Fenghua during the sacrifice ceremony, Ruoxin never let go of her heart, but there was no news about Fenghua from Ke Lan Palace, although King Ying Ning also sent someone to Ke Lan to investigate, but to no avail.
When he heard the news of him again, when he became the new emperor of Ke Lan, although Ruoxin had mixed emotions in her heart, she was relieved at most.
From the mouth of the past elegance, Ruoxin can guess his uncle's feelings for his Ruozi, and he really values his talents, otherwise he would not break the hereditary system of father-son inheritance of the throne of previous dynasties and make him the crown prince.
Fenghua was expelled from the Kelan Palace, his background was not the main reason, I am afraid that his willingness to give up the throne for personal reasons made his uncle extremely disappointed. After the anger, Fenghua is still the most beloved nephew in Emperor Ke Lan's heart, and he is also the most ideal heir to the throne. Therefore, Emperor Ke Lan regained the position of the crown prince of Fenghua, and she was not too surprised.
It's just that when she heard the news that he married the new queen, she was really stunned.
All the turmoil subsided, and the two returned to their respective tracks and started different lives, maybe this was the idea she once had, but after experiencing all kinds of things such as ghost town hunting for wood and artifact sacrifices, she did not deny that her heart was a little shaken, and even she couldn't tell the emotions in her heart.
Looking at the contemplative expression on Ruoxin's face, Bai Qingyin put aside the herbs in his hand, cleaned his hands in the basin of water, wiped them dry, and then walked to Ruoxin and sat down.
Helping Ruoxin clean up the table, Bai Qingyin said softly: "Ruoxin, Xiao Hua'er's name is Bai Rong's?" ”
"Huh?" Ruoxin came back to her senses, turned her head to look at Bai Qingyin's face that seemed to be able to understand everything, she smiled and responded, "Yes." ”
"After six years together, Bai Rong is indeed the one who understands your heart best." Qingli's face lowered slightly, and Qingyin was silent for a moment before continuing: "I used to hope that you and Bai Rong could have a complete result, but Bai Rong saw your true intentions, and it was rare that he would make such a decision. ”
Ruoxin's eyes are narrowed, and her five fingers are gently curled.
Although Bai Rong is wooden by nature, he is not a careless person, especially for her affairs, he always cares about it.
Bai Ruoyin didn't lie to her, since she reshaped her body, the blood chain between Bai Rong and Bai Ruoyin was broken. After the accident in the capital, Bai Rong returned to her, and since then he has been accompanying her every step of the way, and he will naturally be aware of her thoughts.
"Bai Rong is dedicated to me, I want to give him a happy promise, and I don't want him to feel any grievances. But I will also respect his wishes, after all, emotional matters are not a matter of one person's words. ”
Bai Qingyin turned sideways and gently held Ruoxin's hand, the expression on her face was soft, "Outsiders can't put their beaks on emotional matters." But I want to tell you that the final choice, happiness or not is your own business. True love is neither reluctant nor wronged, as long as the person who loves is willing. Maybe for him, your happiness is his greatest wish, and he won't feel wronged. ”
Ruoxin smiled gently and said: "There are many variables in the world, and it is not what we want to do, everything is as it is, we must also cherish and grasp the happiness in front of us." ”
There was a babbling sound outside the courtyard, Ruoxin's eyes moved to the door, and in a moment, Bai Rong walked in from outside, still wearing a simple black robe, with long black hair tied up, and there were no extra pendants on the whole body but still tall and handsome.
The long sword that had never left his body was gone, and now he was holding a little doll more than a year old with skillful movements. The two faces, one big and one small, are equally cute, not only the appearance but also the expression is somewhat similar.
Bai Rong held the little girl in one hand and walked in front of Ruoxin with a small roller car in the other.
"Girl."
Although the little girl was held by Bai Rong in her hand, her eyes were always firmly fixed on the courtyard, one little hand grabbed Bai Rong's clothes, and the other hand stretched out to the house, and kept muttering: "Dad, brother, brother." ”
Ruoxin stood up, tidied up the clothes that were a little messy by the child for Bai Rong, and then gently touched the little girl's head, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"I'm going to fix this for Gui'er." Bai Rong motioned to the small wheel in his right hand, then looked down at the child in his arms, and said, "Bring Ning'er in first." If you don't look at them, it's dangerous. ”
When the little girl heard Bai Rong's words, she finally retracted her gaze, raised her head, her round cute little face had no expression, but as if she was explaining something, she said inarticulately: "Protect my brother, Ning'er, it's not dangerous." ”
Looking at the child in his arms, Bai Rong's cold and resolute face softened, and the man's face showed an obvious expression of love, but he still said: "It's dangerous to be alone with Ning'er." Have you forgotten what happened last time? ”
The little girl's dark eyes looked at Bai Rong, and she didn't speak, and her expression similar to Bai Rong looked a little distressing.
Ruoxin laughed, reached out and carefully took the child from Bai Rong's arms, adjusted her posture, and said, "Bai Rong, Ning'er, I'll watch, you go and do your thing." ”
"Hmm." Bai Rong nodded, and after glancing at the courtyard, he immediately went to the backyard to pick up repair tools.
Ruoxin hugged the little girl and sat back at the table.
Bai Rong's worries are not unfounded, although Ning'er is thin and small, she has amazing perseverance, and she is obviously smaller than Xiao Hua'er, but she always shows a protective posture towards Xiao Hua'er. Once even tried to pick up Xiao Hua'er, Ruoxin still remembered that when Bai Rong saw that Ning Er, who was still walking unsteadily, actually picked up Xiao Hua'er, the sky collapsed and the unchanged face was suddenly shocked.
The warm and soft little hands wrapped around her neck, the little head came to her ears, the smell of the child's milk came to her nose, she rubbed Ruoxin's cheeks, and cried out in a milky voice: "Mother, brother." ”
Ning'er's personality is very similar to Bai Rong, a cute little face doesn't have too many expressions on weekdays, and only when she stays in her arms, will she behave coquettishly.
Ruoxin took out a soft silk handkerchief from her arms and gently wiped the thin sweat on the child's forehead, looked at the child's pure eyes, and said with a smile: "Brother is outside." Ning'er is good, dad is going to help my brother repair the car, and when it is repaired, can you sit with your brother? ”
The little girl nodded very obediently, and her two little hands were also quietly put away on her lap, repeating: "Wait obediently, take the car with my brother." ”
"Ning'er is so well-behaved, mother-in-law." Ruoxin hugged the child's soft body and kissed her pink little face.
Ning'er's birth was unexpected by everyone.
When she was pregnant and gave birth in October, after Ruoxin gave birth to Xiaohua'er, the midwife found another baby girl in her womb.
Things also surprised Ruoxin, although Ning'er and Xiao Hua'er were twins, they looked like they were only more than six months old when they were born, and they didn't breathe or have a heartbeat, as if they were a stillborn born in Ruoxin's womb.
I thought that the child would not survive, but I didn't think that not long after landing, the girl who had no breathing and heartbeat slowly showed signs of life. Although she was born much younger than a normal baby, she grew up in good health.
Ruoxin couldn't figure out what was going on, she was sure that she really only had one child when she was pregnant in Wanchun County. After all, she had an experience of being almost half human and half ghost, and Ning Er's existence may be related to that time.
Bai Rong went to the backyard to get tools for repairing the wheel, and Xiao Hua'er stayed in the front yard temporarily. In the hall where Ruoxin is located, you can see the gate of the courtyard, and besides, the town is small but very safe, and the people are simple, so you don't have to worry about someone abducting the child.
The little baby sat under the big tree in the yard, and her tender little hands spread out the herbs drying in front of her, with a preoccupied expression.
A villager passing by outside the bamboo fence saw Xiao Hua'er sitting under the tree, so he stopped and walked in, "Hua cub, why are you playing alone today?" ”
The little baby stopped what she was doing and raised her head to look at the comer.
Although she is a boy, Xiao Hua'er's appearance is more delicate and beautiful than that of a girl, her fair face is like an ink painting sketched with a very fine brush, and even the details are so beautiful that people are amazed, her eyebrows are beautiful, her eyelashes are long, and she can't find any flaws. The dark gray almost black eyes seemed to be flawless glass, Xiao Hua'er raised the angelica in her hand, her pink and tender mouth raised slightly, and said in a childish voice: "Help Niang Niang dry." ”
Obedient and sensible, who doesn't love such a child. People who come to see the doctor on weekdays, seeing this lovely baby, the pain is alleviated by three percent, and the old man touched Xiao Hua'er's head lovingly, and said, "Hua cub is really good." ”
The old man reached into his arms and took out a small round ball with many exquisite patterns carved on the surface, which he bought in the city market, originally bought back for his grandson, but now he still can't help but want to give it to Xiao Huacub.
Xiao Hua'er looked at the ball in the old man's hand, and then looked up at the old man.
The old man laughed and said, "Little ghost spirit, Grandpa Beard is not a stranger, this is for you to play, okay?" ”
After thinking about it slightly, Xiao Hua'er finally reached out and took the ball, and said again in a tender voice, "Thank you, grandpa." ”
After playing with Xiao Hua'er for a while, the old man got up and left.
Before Bai Rong went to find a tool, Xiao Hua'er played with the novel toy in her hand by herself.
Although the ball was small, it was still difficult for his small hands to grasp, and accidentally rolled out of the range of the cushion he was sitting on. Xiao Hua'er leaned forward and stretched out her arms to reach, scratching and scratching her little paws, but she was always a little bit off.
Just as Xiao Hua'er was tired of insisting, a pair of clean and dust-free white boots stopped in front of the small round ball, and after a slight pause, the man slowly squatted down, picked up the small round ball with his slender and graceful hand, and then handed it to Xiao Hua'er.
Xiao Hua'er raised his head and looked at the person who helped him get the ball back.
The man in front of him was dressed in a moon-white robe, looking quiet and cold. The facial features are beautiful and tranquil, but they look like they have just recovered from a serious illness. Fei's thin lips pursed slightly, the handsome and elegant face with indescribable gentleness, looking at him half-narrowly, the figure of the little doll was clearly reflected in the clear eyes, as if looking at the world's treasure.
The man gently placed the ball on his side, then looked at the child again, and asked softly in a clear voice, "What's your name?" ”
Staring at the man in front of him, Xiao Hua'er suddenly curled her little pink lips, smiled at him, and the soft child's voice sounded: "The baby's name is Bai Huagui, the mother's name is Xiao Hua'er, and the little father's name is Gui'er." ”
The man spoke softly, "Huagui ......"
Looking at her dark gray eyes like herself, Xiao Hua'er, who was always a little wary of strangers on weekdays, unfolded her chubby little hand and stretched out her little hand to him, while calling, "Hug." ”
The man's eyes were soft, he slowly stretched out his hand, took the little child into his arms, and hugged the soft little body, not daring to exert a little force, for fear of breaking the soft child.
"Uncle hasn't seen it?" Xiao Hua'er looked at him sideways, her beautiful eyes bright and clear.
Stroking the back of the child's head, he said softly: "Uncle is from far away, and he is the most important person who comes here to find his uncle. ”
"Did you find it?"
Staring at the child's unfamiliar but bone-like familiar face, he bowed slightly, "Found it." ”
Found it, found the treasure of his life, nothing could be more important than them.
He lowered his eyes slightly, recalling this chaotic day, and now his heart seemed to be as calm and peaceful as if he had found a home. He slept intermittently for nearly a year and a half, and when he was fully awake, he was in the Kelan Palace, and then his uncle died, and he inexplicably ascended the throne by the edict of the first emperor. He didn't recover, and he couldn't object at all. Although nearly half of the conservatives in the imperial court firmly supported the new emperor who had been succeeded by the previous emperor, he also knew that there were several princes who did not give up. He didn't want this throne in the first place, but he couldn't help himself to take over the throne, and there were people staring at him all the time, and he had no way to leave the palace and get out of this identity. After some thought, he planned everything with one of his cousins, who was rarely hostile to him, and he abdicated the throne while the cousin arranged for him to leave the palace.
A month ago, the daughter of the prime minister was married to his cousin, who disguised himself as him, in order to gain the power of the prime minister, but these things had nothing to do with him. Under the arrangement of his cousin, he successfully left the palace, and the royal family was unpredictable, so just in case, he changed his subsequent plan and left Beijing in disguise.
During this time, my cousin has remained in the palace as him, and I am afraid that after a while, Ke Lan will have the news of the emperor's death, and then my cousin will be able to ascend to the throne as he originally planned.
......
"What's your name?" The glutinous voice sounded in his ears again, and Xiao Hua'er asked the man before him immaturely.
Gently holding Xiao Hua'er's little hand in a warm and slender hand, the man responded softly: "Fenghua, my name is Fenghua." ”
Xiao Hua'er's gaze never left the man in front of him, two small hands stretched out, gently touched his clear face, and suddenly shouted, "Daddy." ”
Fenghua was shocked, did not move for a long time, staring at the child's clear eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate everything, he responded slightly dumbly, "Huh." ”
Hearing the voice of Xiao Hua'er talking in the courtyard, mixed with a low male voice, Ruoxin suddenly spread a strange feeling in her heart for some reason. She stopped sorting out the medicine books, stood up involuntarily, and walked towards the door with Ning'er in her arms.
The voice of the voice in the courtyard became clearer and clearer, and when she saw the handsome man in the moon-white robe holding Xiao Huagui under the tree, Ruoxin stopped and was stunned on the spot.
As if there was an invisible soft line slowly pulling the two of them, Fenghua looked sideways slightly, his eyes intersected with Ruoxin, and his moist pupils rippled. The beautiful thin lips raised slightly, and Fenghua said softly: "Ruo'er, I'm back." ”
The breeze is blowing, and the leaves are softly singing, like a shallow chant. The white robe fluctuates, the soft long hair rises in the wind, and under the shade of the tree, the elegance of holding a little doll in her arms is also like the most beautiful painting in the world, forever frozen.
