Chapter 220: Midnight Lingering (I)

Bidding farewell to Imperial Physician Jiang, she turned aimlessly in the palace, but today's sky seemed to be darker than ever, and when she returned to Chengqian Palace with a complicated mood, she and Mama Jinyun had just stepped into the Flounder Pavilion with their front feet, and the dark sky outside flew a lingering spring rain.

"This day is also really God, I understand the heart of the mother, and I know that it will rain when I can't get drenched with the mother." Mama Jinyun's tone with a little smile was still as soft as jade.

Although she knew that it was to make her happy, she was still in a better mood, so she also smiled: "You know my mind, it's not this day, it's you, who just urged me to go back to the palace outside, and I didn't know that it was going to rain." If you want to say that this god is God, then aren't you more godly, know how to see the sky, and know how to make people happy? ”

Mama Jinyun pulled down the curtain that flew in the wind to block the coolness outside, and said with a smile: "Niangniang is making fun of the slave again." After turning around for such a long time, Niangniang should be hungry, or the slave maid will pass you food, Niangniang didn't eat anything at noon, and went out for an afternoon in the afternoon. ”

After turning around all afternoon, her stomach was not hungry, but she didn't want to worry Mama Jinyun, so she nodded, but sitting at the big table, looking at the delicate and lovely dishes in front of her, she didn't have the slightest appetite, and it was really bad to eat alone.

I wanted to ask Mama Jinyun to eat with her, but I remembered that last time, I couldn't stand her repeated orders from the concubine's shelf, and Mama Jinyun finally sat down next to half of her buttocks, but after a meal, Mama Jinyun was always nervous, and only tried her best to help her with the dishes, but she didn't dare to eat a bite.

Mama Jinyun is finally an old mother who has been in the palace all her life, the idea of the lord respecting the slave and the inferior has been deeply rooted, and she follows the rules when she talks to her casually on weekdays, even if she emphasizes many times that she should not call herself a slave when two people, she still can't change her mouth. As for sitting at the same table with her to eat, she didn't dare to do anything, so she didn't dare to force her anymore.

A person barely ate a few bites, then ordered someone to withdraw, Xu was tired of tossing all day, she leaned in front of the fence to look at the night, a little tired, so she ordered someone to move the chaise longue, leaning on the couch to look at the night, by the cool night breeze, the whole body gradually relaxed temporarily.

When the letter came, he saw her leaning on the couch.

He took a light step and walked over quietly, only to see her sleeping face, breathing evenly, obviously tired, but in a sleeping state, her eyebrows were still tightly wrinkled, although she was unconscious, there was always a faint sadness and silence on her face.

On the side of her white neck, a neat bunch of short hair fell on the pillow, and the traces of the new scissors could still be seen. He held the short hair in his hand, and his heart hurt softly. He loved her hair, silky soft, ink-like black, and when he leaned on her shoulder, he could still smell the delicate fragrance in her hair.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to act too nervous about her in front of everyone today, and didn't want to let his favor become the reason why everyone hurt her like before, how could he be willing to cut off her hair, even if she did it herself, even if it was pulled by the prince, it would not be allowed.

But the hair was broken after all, scattered between her waist-length hair, which looked so glaring.

At this time, her voice came faintly: "Are you here?" There was a little laziness, a little tiredness, and a little soft coquettishness in the voice.

Perhaps she smelled the familiar smell of him, or perhaps she was too tired, she didn't even open her eyes, but just stretched out her hand to cover his big hand.

"Hmm." His voice was soft and gentle, for fear of disturbing her.

Sensing the tiredness in his voice and the coldness in her hands, she finally opened her eyes, and under the light of the candlelight, her eyes narrowed unconsciously, and her brow furrowed even deeper: "What time is it?" ”

"It's too late, I've woken you up." He reached out and stroked her brow, trying to smooth out the wrinkles between her brows.

She pulled his hand down and smiled lazily: "It's so late, I accidentally slept for two or three hours." You're done with your political affairs, why did you come here so late, it's still raining outside. ”

"Hehe, it doesn't matter. I brought you something, you see, what is this. He offered a food box and shook it in front of her eyes as if he were offering a treasure.

Her heart warmed, and her smile deepened: "You brought me something to eat, I'm really hungry." ”

"Of course you have to be hungry, I heard that you ate some at noon today, and you didn't eat anything at night. I'm busy with politics today, so I didn't come to eat with you. This brings you hot ginseng soup, so let's drink some of it. It's still spring, and I've slept in this wind for so long, drink some hot to get rid of the cold. ”

Listening to the slightly reproachful tone in his tone, she suddenly wanted to be willful: "You feed me." ”

Hearing this, he smiled happily, nodded her nose and said, "The more you live, the more you go back, and after you come back from Qingchan Temple, you will become more and more like a child." ”

As she spoke, her hands were not idle, and she had already brought out the ginseng soup and brought it to her lips.

She took a sip and said, "Children are children, don't you like it?" ”

Hearing this, he laughed out loud: "Haha, I like it, I like everything Xin'er." Now, I have two children. ”

After a few sips, she suddenly became emotional: "After experiencing the Qingchan Temple, I know that there are too many accidents in life, and it is too difficult for two people to stay safe, so I believe that I want to cherish our time together, maybe one day I will ......"

"Xin'er, don't talk nonsense!" He cut off her words, put down the bowl in his hand, and said solemnly: "Xin'er, the matter of Qingchan Temple has passed, don't think about it too much, we will also rely on each other in the future, and we will grow old together, believe me." ”

But she smiled and said no more. The affairs of Qingchan Temple gradually subsided with the passage of time, but in her heart it would never pass. Moreover, he is the emperor, but he said that he is dependent on each other and grows old together, how can she believe it?

"During this time, the court was busy, so you should pay more attention to the government. It's hard to run back and forth every day, and let's talk about eating together when you're not busy. She shifted the subject without missing a trace.

"Well, that's fine. But I'll accompany you when I'm done. He took off his golden-silk dragon boots, lay down beside her, and took her into his arms.

The way he answered so quickly made her feel a little empty and lost, but didn't she need that? If the emperor comes to dine with her every day, the news of her regaining her favor will spread throughout the harem, and then she will be the target of everyone, which will be detrimental to revenge.

She leaned into his arms, listened to his powerful heartbeat, and closed her eyes.

The confrontation between reason and emotion always makes the heart so difficult to choose, and she has to admit that this embrace has always had such an attraction to her, so that she is willing to indulge in this embrace.
