In fact, before Liu Ye's birthday, the prince couldn't wait to go to Changxingfang to visit Liu Ye.

The tall and thin man had already followed her again as soon as Liu Ye entered the capital, and when he saw the prince coming, he hurriedly jumped down to salute the prince.

"You go down first, and you will come back after the main palace leaves." The prince said solemnly.

"Yes." The tall and thin man quickly disappeared.

Liu Ye was making tea for herself in the room, her movements paused slightly, and a trace of helplessness flashed between her eyebrows.

She pretended not to know about the prince's arrival, only poured herself tea, spread out the paper and began to write.

The prince looked at the willow leaves quietly outside the window, in the past two years, every once in a while, a portrait of the willow leaves was sent back, it can be said that the growth of the willow leaves in the past two years has never left the prince's sight. But now that he really saw her close in front of him, the prince's heart beat wildly, and he was once again determined to keep Liu Ye by his side.

The girl is not beautiful, and her talent is not outstanding, but she has the most sincere heart and the most free words and deeds.

The prince, who was still a half-grown child, was deflated when he first met Liu Ye.

He could see very clearly that this girl was not moved by his beautiful appearance, nor was she in awe of his luxurious clothes.

Even for his arrogance, he only coaxed children to deal with it.

That was the first time he felt treated like an ordinary child!

At that time, he had just been named the crown prince, and he carefully avoided the ubiquitous black hands along the way, and he was very sensitive, but that girl broke into his lonely little world so recklessly, and broke into his heart like that.

Later, the analysis of Aoki and others was just to find a perfect excuse not to let this girl disappear from his sight.

Now five or six years have passed, and the girl she has been guarding has finally grown up.

He won't let her fly out of his palm again!

Liu Ye was distracted by the writing, and gradually forgot the existence of the prince, and the prince didn't know what kind of thoughts he had in mind, so he didn't go in, but just quietly looked at Liu Ye through the window for a while, and then turned to leave.

He then sent a female secret guard to protect Willow Leaf when it was inconvenient for the tall and thin man.

After Liu Ye finished writing a word, he looked up at the courtyard, the prince had long since disappeared, and when he heard a slight sound from the roof, he knew that the prince had left.

"What?" Liu Ye couldn't guess the prince's mind in his heart.

But it's better if he doesn't see each other today, and he's really not ready for everything.

When the prince returned to the East Palace, he was in a very good mood.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked into the inner hall, the personal attendant whispered: "Your Majesty is inside." ”

The prince walked in as usual, and even the expression on his face did not change, but his heart suddenly became alert.

As usual, he threw the big dan to the chamberlain, and said as he walked in: "After the palace went out, has anyone been here?" ”

He has been in this habit for the past few years, so the emperor's heart hidden in the inner room was slightly relieved.

"I'm here, what, aren't you welcome?" The emperor turned out from behind the pillar and smiled.

"Father?" The prince looked shocked and scolded the waiter: "Why don't you know the report!" ”

He hurriedly greeted and saluted the emperor, and the emperor held him up and said: "It's me who came uninvited, don't blame them, I don't let them say it, who of them dares to say it!" ”

The crown prince said with a happy expression: "Okay, since my father has spoken, you have done the right thing, go down." ”

The chamberlain retreated nervously.

"My father has something to ask his sons to shout, why did he come here in person?" The crown prince diligently helped the emperor to the throne.

"Father is also idle, come and see you. Look at how you are in a good mood today, who are so happy to go out and meet someone. ”

The crown prince smiled, his heart was running like lightning, and he hurriedly said: "I'm not particularly happy, it's just that my father also knows that Liu Ye, who was sent to Gray Goose City before, is back today." ”

He thought that everything about himself was under the surveillance of his father, and now there was nothing out of the ordinary, and his father came to ask to test whether he was honest enough with him.

"Oh, I remember this girl. Is she married? The emperor asked casually.

The prince's heart was beating wildly, but his face was not obvious, and he smiled: "Father still remembers this girl? She hasn't married yet, isn't this still a choice for her sons, she's only eighteen years old, and it's okay to be a year or two at night. ”

"In this way, it's good that you have a plan in mind." The emperor said, "You know what the court has been saying in the past few years, if you show something because of this girl at this time...... Then she will be the target of everyone. ”

The prince was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Thank you for your father's reminder, and the son also asked her what she wanted to marry." ”

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, patted him on the shoulder and said, "If you have time to cultivate a relationship with the crown princess, after all, you are a young couple." ”

"Yes." The prince scratched his head embarrassedly, "She's fine, but she's a little restrained." ”

"Hehe, she came from afar, and it's normal to be a little restrained. Or the next time you go out, you can take her out to breathe. The emperor had a fatherly expression.

"Is that okay? Thank you, Father! "The crown prince is very happy for the crown princess.

The emperor left satisfied.

But it wasn't until he entered the inner room and put down the bed tent that his face slowly became gloomy.

The emperor's trip is by no means to say anything about the crown princess, but to say that the prince must not accept willow leaves, and the concubines are not good!

He didn't know why his father was so stubborn and disagreed, there was nothing wrong with Liu Ye!

But no matter how annoyed he was in his heart, he didn't dare to release it now.

After a long moment, he sighed softly.

Sometimes he himself feels very aggrieved, because he is already a prince, and there are things that he can't get.

Why does my father look down on Willow Leaf so much?

Is it just because of Willow Leaf's humble status?

It's not that simple!

It seems that they can't settle down clearly, but Yanagien is just a congratulatory gift to Aoki!

I don't want to take this step, but that's all I can do now.

Except for Aoki, no one can do it, he is not at ease.

Well, in that case, don't worry, let Aoki come back for the New Year, and let them get married when the New Year comes!

Thinking that Liu Ye would marry Aoki, even if it was just his own arrangement, even if he knew that it was fake, the prince still gritted his teeth when he said the word marriage!

Originally, he wrote a letter to Aoki to ask him to come back to prepare for a birthday party for that girl, but who knew that the mistake would fulfill Aoki's kid, although he was also ......

Well, if you don't change your mind, Aoki will be Aoki.

And Aoki of Gray Goose City also began to pack his bags.

When he received the prince's secret order, he guessed that he was recalled by the prince this time, and it must be a matter of marriage.

Previously, he could comfort himself that if Liu Ye didn't go back, the prince's idea would not be realized, but now that Liu Ye has gone back, he plans to obey, and he has no excuse.

Well, go back and go back.

It's just that when he thinks of Liu Ye's seemingly supple but actually unruly temperament, he really has a headache. It seems that he has to choose a distant path and never return to Beijing again.

But this is also something that cannot be helped, I have been mentally prepared before, and now I just have more choices.

Go to the vicinity of Baiyan City first, then wait there for a few years, and next time you go to the ocean with the fleet, you won't come back!

Despite this decision, despite such an awareness, Aoki did not have any freedom in his heart, and his heart was very heavy. He has followed the prince for many years, thinking about making meritorious achievements and being the prince's right and left hand, not being forced into self-exile for an irrelevant woman!

He was actually very unwilling in his heart!

Just because he is an infatuated species, he can no longer see any woman except for the dark, so he has to accept this unfair fate?

never thought that his life would be shattered because of the girl he never put in his heart.

How could he not have resentment in his heart?

However, the crown prince is the master he chooses to be loyal to, and his decision is his own mission! And Yanagiba, Aoki really can't impose all the faults on her, because she is also unwilling.

Well... Or because of this incident, I don't want to see her anymore.

I don't know why, he didn't want Kage to go back to the capital, so he asked him to take over his job.

Shadow's eyes flickered, and he was puzzled: "Don't you let me go back?" ”

"I'm relieved that you stay here, and after half a year, this place will be stable, and you will go back." Aoki had some eyes that didn't dare to look at the shadow.

Ying Bu doubted that there was him, and let out a muffled "um".

"What, upset?" Aoki couldn't help but ask.

"There are very few people who can say a few words, and when you leave, no one will talk to me." Shadow's voice was full of loneliness.

For half a year, they had never been apart for so long.

At this time, he vaguely understood what Liu Ye said, but it was not very clear, and he only knew that it was related to Aoki.

It's only been half a year, so it doesn't matter.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll leave it here." Shadow showed a smile that made Aoki faintly ache, and it was the same smile she had when she was on her last mission.

Aoki's face turned pale suddenly, as if he had once again experienced the moment when his lover died in his own plan and died in his arms...

He hurried back to his room and calmed his emotions.

After a while, he calmed down.

Life and death are out of the way, it's just a nominal wife, it's not a big deal.

As long as you don't enter the cave room and go directly to the end of the world, whether it is the prince or the shadow, you will understand your sincerity towards the dark.

That's enough.

Aoki also shook his hand away, and Shadow looked at the moonlight on the roof alone, feeling so boring for the first time. It turns out that when there are only some strangers left in this courtyard, the moonlight will also feel lonely.

It turns out that as long as they are nearby, the moon will transmit emotions. What a thousand miles together, Ying still hopes that they can watch the moon under the same blue sky and on the same roof!

And in Changxingfang, Liu Ye finally ushered in the last night before her eighteenth birthday.

Sitting alone, waiting for Xiao Ding to bring her dumplings. Xiao Ding will be eighteen next year, Liu Ye asked Xiao Ding if he had any wishes, and Xiao Ding shyly said that he wanted to find a gentle daughter-in-law.

Liu Ye said: "I think Man'er is good!" ”

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ding dropped his chopsticks, and stammered that he didn't know if he could see Man'er.

Liu Ye was also surprised, she really just said it casually!
