Chapter 127
Lu Xin listened to Li Guiyi's words, and she didn't know how to deal with herself for a while, she was only relieved that Xuanyuan Rui had been fighting against the words of the ministers, but she never put herself in his shoes, she felt that her love for him was not as good as other women, and then she realized that she was so selfish about love, and she just wanted to ask for it blindly.
Lu Xin covered her ears, feeling that her head was about to be exploded, and she suddenly had a feeling of a splitting headache, she said to Li Guiyi: "Don't say it again, don't say it again, I don't want him to lose anything."
Li Guiyi stood up, grabbed Lu Xin and said: "If you really love him, you should know what to do, if you are sure that he can still be very happy with you if he loses, then I haven't been here."
After Li Guiyi finished speaking, she left the Phoenix Palace, Lu Xin felt powerless and dignified, as long as she thought that she would leave Xuanyuan Rui, she felt scared in her heart, she felt that she couldn't bear this kind of loss.
Even if the night is long, dawn will always come, and the next day, above the court, the envoy of the new country asked Xuanyuan Rui: "I don't know how the emperor has considered the conditions we said?"
At this time, Prime Minister Wang Cheng said: "We have to think about this matter carefully, after all, the stay of Xin Guirong is related to the face of our royal family."
How could the envoy not know that what Prime Minister Wang Cheng said at this time was deliberately to delay time so as to deploy troops for Yu Liguo, how could he easily agree, the envoy said contemptuously: "The safety of the people of Yu Liguo is also related to the emperor's face, I must go back today to restore my life, Xin Guiren will stay, and please give the emperor a word at this time, right?"
The ministers looked at the arrogant and aggressive appearance of the envoys, and they were extremely angry, only to see Xuanyuan Rui say: "I will never send Xin Guirong away."
After Xuanyuan Rui said this, all the ministers were shocked, and they all seemed to see the beginning of the war and strife, and the envoys said: "Since ancient times, the emperor who has not loved the country and the beauty has ended up dismal."
Xuanyuan Rui said fiercely: "In this case, I won't let you see all this, you can first see how bleak your fate is!" Come, take him down. ”
After Xuanyuan Rui finished speaking, the two guards immediately restrained the envoys, and Lord Chen hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, don't do it!" Since ancient times, the two countries have been at war without killing him, and if the emperor kills him, he will inevitably be scolded by the world, and neighboring countries will attack him en masse. ”
Of course, Xuanyuan Rui knew that he couldn't kill the envoy, he just wanted to imprison the envoy and delay it for a few days.
Prime Minister Wang said: "Ask the emperor to think twice before acting!"
The situation continued to stalemate, and Xuanyuan Rui finally ordered the envoy to be escorted, and at this time, Lu Xin happened to appear in the main hall, and everyone looked at her. Today, she didn't change into palace clothes, just ordinary civilian clothes, wearing a light gauze hat, and the black gauze hung down but she could still see her face clearly.
Lu Xin knelt down and said, "Please allow the emperor to allow the concubines to follow the envoys back to the new country."
Xuanyuan Rui didn't expect Lu Xin to appear in the main hall at all, and he said such things to himself, he thought to himself: "Is it just wishful thinking that he has been trying his best to keep her?" Isn't that what she wants? ”
Xuanyuan Rui asked in surprise, "Xin'er, ...... you?" I want to know why? ”
Although Lu Xin was reluctant in every way, she knew that if she didn't show ruthlessness, Xuanyuan Rui would definitely not let her go. Lu Xin said: "No, it's the concubine who wants to go back, please ask the emperor to ......."
Before Lu Xin's words were finished, Xuanyuan Rui got up from the dragon chair and forced Lu Xin to ask, "No, why?" Do you want to go back? Is this really your will? ”
Lu Xin felt aggrieved, but she couldn't show it, she thought: Of course this is not her own will, but what can she do? I'd rather bear the world myself than the world bear me.
Lu Xin was speechless and continued: "I ask the emperor to allow the concubines to go back to Yuliguo."
Xuanyuan Rui didn't expect Lu Xin to ask like this, he felt extremely distressed, and thought, "Can't she forget Li Qingyuan?" Isn't it enough to pamper her so much? ”
Xuanyuan Rui asked again, "Is this really your will?"
Lu Xin didn't dare to look up at Xuanyuan Rui for a moment, she was worried that when she looked at him, her heart would no longer be firm, Lu Xin lowered her head, and she wanted to stop talking.
Xuanyuan Rui looked at her and said, "If this is your true words, then I will never see you again."
This sentence fell like a stone on Lu Xin's heart, making her choke up for a moment, she thought: Since there is no way back, then be ruthless to the end, let each other's hands go and disappear cleanly, don't state your sadness and reluctance to make him soft or embarrassed!
Lu Xin raised her head and replied firmly, "Yes, this is my true words."
I don't know how long it took for Xuanyuan Rui to calm down and say to everyone in the hall, "Let them go."
A few simple and clear words, but they made the hearts of both of them extremely heavy, but they made many people happy. The guards let go of the envoy, Lu Xin got up and followed the envoy out of the Xuanzheng Hall slowly, and never looked back again.
The night was dark, and after a day of tiring travel, Lu Xin followed the envoy to the camp alone. Before leaving, Xiaoxuan cried and insisted on following her back to Xinguo, but Lu Xin knew that this time she would go back, she would definitely die for life, she wanted Xiaoxuan to stay, complete the mission delivered by her mother when she was dying, and find her second brother in Yu Liguo for herself.
After Lu Xin came to the barracks, she was arranged in a spacious tent, where there were already maids waiting for her arrival, bathing and changing her clothes, and dressing up again. Lu Xin glanced at the mirror and found that she was much haggard, and the maid next to her said: "The noble Xin is so beautiful, the emperor will definitely like it when he sees this dress."
After listening to the maid's words, Lu Xin asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty?" What does this mean? ”
The maid said: "The slave maid also just learned that the emperor will come to the camp to meet the nobles in a while, so I ordered the slaves and maids to dress up the nobles well."
When Lu Xin heard this, she couldn't help but shudder in her heart, she never expected that Li Qingyuan would leave the palace and come to this far north in person, could there be other more important things?
However, Lu Xin waited until midnight to see Li Qingyuan's arrival, and she was already sleepy at this time, she sat at the table and took a nap with one hand on her cheeks. Lu Xin slept in a daze, and in her dream she saw Li Qingyuan appear in front of her, and just as she wanted to ask him, she saw Li Qingyuan suddenly turn into a fierce tiger and pounce on her. Lu Xin was so frightened that she couldn't catch her breath and woke up, and when she woke up and opened her eyes, the first thing that caught her eye was Li Qingyuan sitting in front of her. This look frightened Lu Xin again, she immediately got up from the chair and stepped back, but she almost tripped over the chair and fell to the ground, but fortunately, Li Qingyuan reacted very quickly and helped Lu Xin in time, so that she was spared.
Li Qingyuan wanted to take a good look at Lu Xin, knowing that she must have been waiting for her for a long time and was sleepy, so he didn't wake her up when he came in, but he didn't expect Lu Xin to wake up and see that he would react so panickedly, especially the moment when he stretched out his hand to support her, Lu Xin was scared as if he was hiding from a flood beast. Li Qingyuan said: "Xin'er? Xin'er...? What's wrong with you? ”
Lu Xin listened to Li Qingyuan's call before she woke up from a dream, she fixed her expression, it turned out that it was just a nightmare, she pulled out Li Qingyuan's hand, retreated to stand a little farther away than Li Qingyuan, and said, "I..., I'm fine."
Li Qingyuan looked at Lu Xin and said, "It's late, you have to hurry early tomorrow morning, you can rest early!" After Li Qingyuan finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Lu Xin opened his mouth and said, "Qing? ......, don't you want to ask me why I left the General's Mansion in the first place? ”
Li Qingyuan said: "I believe that you were coerced."
Lu Xin took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to say, "No, no, I was not coerced by others, I asked Xuanyuan Rui to take me out of the General's Mansion."
Li Qingyuan slowly turned around, looked at Lu Xin, and said with a slightly angry face: "What do you mean by saying this now?" Do you want to tell me that you are in love with Yu Liguo or in love with Xuanyuan Rui? ”
Lu Xin looked at Li Qingyuan and said, "I don't want to deceive you, I just let you know that this is the truth."
Li Qingyuan said angrily: "The facts? ......, the truth is that from the beginning you were my concubine, and the person you liked and fell in love with was me, not Xuanyuan Rui. Either way, I'm going to let everything go back to the way it was, and that's a fact that no one can change. ”
Lu Xin said lightly: "It's impossible for us anymore, since you ordered to destroy my Lu clan, I can no longer accept this feeling."
Li Qingyuan said: "But I never wanted your life, and I tried every possible way to protect you, because I care about you." Lu Xiang's matter is only to blame him for making too many enemies in the court, which caused such a fatal disaster. ”
Lu Xin raised her head and looked at Li Qingyuan with a bleak smile, she said, "Hehe, how honored is the little girl to be so loved?" You have taken away all my relatives and left me alone, this is how you love me? ”
Lu Xin thought of the tragic death of her relatives, tears couldn't help but fall, she took a deep breath, and continued: "I will never forget the day they died, and I will never forget the days when I hid and wandered."
Li Qingyuan listened to Lu Xin's story, and was speechless for a while, he knew that the time when Lu Xin had disappeared was indeed not easy, but he also knew that his court political situation could not tolerate Lu Xiang and others, and if he didn't get rid of it, it would be difficult to reform the government, so he wanted to compensate Lu Xin afterwards. Li Qingyuan didn't want to entangle with Lu Xin anymore in this established fact, so he changed the topic and said, "But your feelings for me at the beginning were real, isn't it ......?"
