Chapter Twenty-Three: The Man in the Dream
"I'll keep watch over tonight." I said to my grandfather.
Grandpa Sun held his hands on his chest, trembling, and when he heard me say that he wanted to guard here, he hesitated for a moment, and then nodded slightly, Let me look at His Royal Highness the Prince, if His Royal Highness is different, I will immediately inform him, and he will be guarding outside the door.
"Don't you need the Imperial Doctor to come and see it?" I stared at my grandfather.
Gonggong Sun shook his head: "The imperial doctor can't see the illness of our Highness." ”
"What about the priests? Let Xiao Ce come over and take a look for His Highness. I proposed.
Gonggong Sun still shook his head: "The high priest said that tonight, His Highness has the strongest evil spirit, and the two blessed girls are blocking the evil, and the rest of the people cannot enter the temple again, otherwise they will seek death, and he will come over early tomorrow morning." ”
Grandpa Sun said as he skimmed behind the screen.
I felt bad when I heard this, and before I could speak again, my grandfather Sun closed the door of the dormitory.
This highness vomited blood, and there was no one around to take care of him, just lying alone in the dormitory, I seemed to understand what was hidden in his lonely eyes.
I stepped over the screen and walked towards His Highness's bed.
On the bed, the lower part of the palace is as white as paper, and the lips are not colorless, lying silently on the bed.
The silence frightened me, and I leaned over and stretched out my hand to gently test his snort.
When I put my finger under his nose, His Royal Highness the Prince's narrow eyelashes trembled a few times, and it took a long time for him to slowly open his eyes.
When he saw that it was me, he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at me.
"Coming back? Is she embarrassed for you? He asked angrily.
I shook my head and sat down on the edge of the bed.
As soon as I sat on my side, Meng Xun, who was originally in my sleeve, rolled to the ground with a "bang".
I immediately leaned over to pick it up, and wanted to hide it back in my sleeve, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glanced at Meng Xun and asked, "Can you blow Xun?" ”
"This, blow it randomly, it's out of tune." I smiled awkwardly.
Before, Ming Beilin urged me, saying that if I had time, I should practice blowing well, but this has never been free.
"Can you play a song for me?" His dark eyes stared at me.
I didn't want to be ugly, but looking at his eyes, I couldn't bear to refuse, so I picked up Xun, recalled what Ming Beilin taught me before, and played.
This Xun is like magic, and a melodious tune immediately comes out, but I can't hold my breath steady, and it's intermittent.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince closed his eyes, wondering if he was asleep.
I glanced down at him, and when I raised my eyes again, I noticed that everything around me had changed.
I was stunned at first, but soon it occurred to me that this was most likely His Highness's "dream".
"Yan'er, you wait for me!"
The chaos around them turned into a wide street in an instant, and on both sides of the street were tall mansions, and under the eaves of the gates of these houses, rows of white lanterns hung from them.
"Yan'er!"
The familiar cry came from behind me, and I turned back to see a man dressed in a black robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and a black longbow on his back, galloping towards this direction on a horse, and a flock of red "birds" flying behind him.
He called "Yan'er" as he approached me, and when he was only a few steps away from me, I finally saw his face.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" I cried out in my heart.
No? What seems wrong? Because this is a picture full of infinite vitality, even the eyes have a galaxy in it, and the smile on the corner of the mouth is even more warm and wanton.
"Yan'er!"
He shouted, and the horse passed past me like a gust of wind, and I looked in the direction of the gallop, and saw in the distance a girl dressed in red.
She laughed as if she were playing with His Highness, and the more His Highness told her to stop, the faster she ran.
As the horse approached the girl, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince jumped down from the horse.
The girl turned around with a smile, her long hair blown to the sides by the cold wind.
"Poof!" With a bang, when I saw the girl's face, the Xun in my hand slipped down to the futon.
Everything around me began to become distorted again, and in a trance, it became the prince's bedroom again, and His Royal Highness the prince on the bed also opened his eyes slightly and looked at me.
"What's wrong? Sunset? He called out to me, and I came back to my senses in confusion.
Hurriedly held Meng Xun in his hand, thinking about what Nishang and Beilin had said before.
The scene in this Meng Xun should be the scene in the memory, but?
"Xiyan?" When he saw that I was confused, he opened his mouth again, and let out a coughing sound.
"It's okay, I just think that I didn't blow it well, which made His Highness laugh." I said in a trance, and put Xun in my sleeve.
"You're doing a great job, but what kind of tune is this? When I listen, it always feels familiar. He asked, staring at me.
I shook my head, because I played this tune randomly, and the key was slightly different each time.
"Your Highness has praised it." As I spoke, all I could remember was the girl's smile like a flower.
"If you don't feel good, I'll let the musicians in the palace teach you how to play the horn, how about you be tapped?" Seeing that I seemed sullen, he asked again.
I nodded, looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's face, and said, "Your Highness, you sleep, I'm here to guard you tonight." ”
When he heard me say this, he struggled to sit up, and actually wanted me to sleep on the bed, and he went to the soft bedding on the floor to make do with it all night.
"Your Highness, don't move." He's so weak, I don't want him to go to the ground.
"That? This bed, you and I are one and a half, rest assured, I will not do anything wrong. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, look at me with a serious face.
Actually, he doesn't have to guarantee that I have an inexplicable sense of trust in him.
"That's good." As I spoke, I turned to the side, but after all, there is a difference between men and women, so I will not take off this garment.
When he saw that I was really lying down, his pale face smiled.
"Your Highness, what are you laughing at?" I looked at him suspiciously.
He shook his head slightly: "Sleep." ”
With that, he lay down on my side again, but there were still two slaps between us.
He lay motionless, and I was thinking about the woman I had seen after the blowing, until the glimmer of morning light came through the window on one side, and my eyelids closed heavily.
The body gradually relaxed, and there was chaos in his mind.
"Yan'er!"
A call, as if coming from afar, plunged my surroundings into darkness.
"Yan'er!"
In the darkness, the call approached again, and beside me stood a woman dressed in splendid red, who turned around with a smile, and that face was my face!
"Ahh I screamed in surprise, and then suddenly opened my eyes, only to meet the anxious gaze of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
