Chapter 731: Mountain Rain is Coming
The sky on the day of the palace banquet was more gloomy than ever.
The dark clouds at the top of the sky were dense with inky blue, giving people the illusion that the whole sky would be pressed down at any time and place, and there was a suffocating and gloomy wind floating in the air, which seemed to permeate the slightest coolness.
Such a cool wind was supposed to make people feel comfortable, but everyone in the entire Qiang Wu Palace didn't feel comfortable at all today.
They just felt as if something big was about to happen, and they were panicked and uneasy.
But today is the day to feast King Xilianghuan and the princess, and everyone can only suppress this uneasiness and panic, and cheer up the spirit.
Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen didn't get up early, and Turnip and Yue Cheng served the two of them to wash and change their clothes.
At breakfast, Ye Jiuchen had no appetite, and ate much less than in the past, but he kept putting vegetables into Leng Yue's bowl.
Leng Yue raised her eyes and looked at Ye Jiuchen's meal that she hadn't touched much.
"Can't you eat it?"
When Ye Jiuchen heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned by the action of picking up vegetables, and then immediately showed his face and bloomed a beautiful smile towards Leng Yue.
In such a gloomy and depressing weather, Ye Jiuchen's smile is undoubtedly like a touch of sunshine, which warms people's hearts.
"It's not that I can't eat, it's just that the weather isn't very good today."
"The bad weather is still affecting your appetite?"
Of course, Leng Yue knew that this was Ye Jiuchen's excuse, but following Ye Jiuchen's words, she couldn't help but look up at the sky.
Black clouds are overpowering, and mountain rain is coming.
"It's going to rain."
"Hmm."
Hearing Leng Yue's words, Ye Jiuchen let out a low sound from his throat, and then raised his eyes to look at the sky like Leng Yue.
In the early morning, it should be sunny, but at this time, there is no sunshine to be seen.
"yes, it's raining heavily."
As he spoke, Ye Jiuchen felt the back of his hand warm, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw Leng Yue's hand, and he didn't know when it had covered the back of his hand.
Her hands are white, soft, and small, but they seem to possess great power that can involuntarily reassure people.
Just like her people.
Ye Jiuchen glanced deeply at Leng Yue.
Leng Yue also looked at Ye Jiuchen fixedly.
"It's okay, the sky is falling, and the old lady will hold it for you."
Ye Jiuchen: "......"
Why is it that a sentence that should be very romantic and emotional, when it comes out of Leng Yue's mouth, the taste changes?
Rao is like this, Ye Jiuchen still involuntarily re-raised the corners of his lips, and on his angular and handsome face, a beautiful arc bloomed.
"Well, good!"
Yue Cheng and Turnip were originally very disturbed and irritated by this weather, and they knew better than anyone else in their hearts that the calm on the surface at the moment could not last long.
Perhaps because of the induction, even today's sky has made a corresponding omen.
Rao is who has already experienced strong winds and waves with Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen, and today they can't help but feel a little nervous.
But seeing the cold moon and Ye Jiuchen at this moment, the faint uneasiness and tension in their hearts quietly dissipated in an instant.
Suddenly, Wujing thought of the previous time when Yue Cheng went out of the palace to do business, Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen, saying that they would marry her to Yue Cheng.
Yue Cheng still doesn't know, if he does, what kind of reaction will he have?
Turnip turned her head slightly, looking at Yue Cheng, who was standing a few steps away from her.
After this incident is over, the shadow guard will really be disbanded, right?
When the shadow guard was disbanded, she and Yue Cheng would still have to follow Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen to serve the two of them.
And they can also give up the identity of the shadow guard, like family, and live with Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen.
She can become Yue Cheng's wife.
Thinking of this, the turnip couldn't help but throb in the bottom of her heart.
Perhaps it was the first time that her gaze was so direct and so undisguised, Yue Cheng seemed to notice it, and subconsciously turned his eyes towards her.
In the past, Turnip tended to avoid looking at Yue Cheng, but today, in the face of Yue Cheng's direct gaze, Turnip did not dodge anymore, but bravely and generously, and looked back.
The moment the four eyes touched, Yue Cheng only felt that his heart seemed to be squeezed by an invisible hand.
He didn't speak, neither did the turnip, and they just looked at each other, as if they were communicating something with their eyes, promising something.
At this moment, although there were only four people in the hall, the atmosphere was diametrically opposed to the outside.
Outside, it was gloomy, cold, stuffy and tense.
In the air in the hall, there seems to be a different kind of relaxation and comfort.
It's just that this short period of relaxation and comfort was broken by a sudden voice.
"The palace banquet held by the prince, the princess, the Great Khan and the eldest princess of Jiamu for the prince and the princess is about to start, and the prince and the princess are invited to move the shelf."
The voice of the palace man made a touch of displeasure appear on the faces of Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen, as if someone had interrupted their affection, which was a great sin. Standby station
At the same time, Wujing and Yue Cheng also withdrew their respective gazes, and their minds were sharpened, and they were guarded and tense, and entered another state.
"Got it."
As he spoke, Ye Jiuchen held Leng Yue's hand with his backhand, and with a slight force, he led the person to stand up.
The two of them interlocked their fingers, and Ye Jiuchen had a wanton smile on his face.
It's just that I don't know if it's an illusion, but the palace people seem to sense a trace of danger in his smile.
……
Outside the palace, Yuelai Inn.
Leng Chi started last night, and the whole person was in a very wrong state.
Obviously there was nothing going on, but he always had a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart, as if something big was going to happen, so he lay on the bed and tossed and turned, but he couldn't sleep.
But what kind of uneasiness method is and what is going to happen, he can't figure it out for a while.
In this way, Leng who barely closed his eyes all night got up early sooner or later, and when he saw the cloudy sky outside, his face, which was not very good-looking, became like the sky and became even more gloomy.
Leng Xiao's situation was not much better than Leng Chi.
The father and son met in the corridor, and Leng Chi frowned and stared at Leng Xiao.
Leng Xiao paused, he didn't know why Leng Chi's face was so embarrassed, but he didn't dare to say the worry in his heart, so he could only pretend to be okay and salute Leng Chi.
"Father."
Leng Chi didn't speak.
Leng Xiao took a step forward: "Is my father unwell?" The face is not very good, I will go to the white crane to give you ......"
"Come in with me!"
Leng Xiao was talking, suddenly, Leng Chi interrupted with a word, then turned around and walked towards his room.
Leng Xiao looked at Leng Chi's back, and resounded Leng Chi's face and tone of voice just now, and couldn't help but "chuckle" in his heart.
Could it be that he knows something?
Otherwise, how could it suddenly become so harsh?
With such a thought in his heart, Leng Xiao still didn't let himself show any weakness on his face, so he followed Leng Chi and entered the room.
As soon as he entered the room, Leng Chi closed the door with his backhand, and then walked in front of Leng Xiao in two steps.
Although Leng Chi is middle-aged, he has long since gone to the battlefield to kill the enemy, but perhaps because of his previous experience, his whole body is full of majestic and solemn momentum, especially when he stares at people with the same serious gaze, it will unconsciously make that person feel weak and weak.
In particular, in Leng Xiao's heart, Leng Chi is still his father, and he is a sky-like existence.
"Father, you ......"
"Xiao'er, I've been restless since last night, I haven't closed my eyes all night, and when I get up in the morning, I don't see the sky outside.
We have been here for so long, when has Qiangwu ever had such a day? ”
Leng Xiao: "??? ”
So, are you in a bad mood because of the bad weather?
"Father, this weather is not something that people can set, the weather is bad today, if you are unwell, take more rest, don't worry, leave the rest to me."
"No, you don't understand what I mean."
Seeing that Leng Xiao didn't get his point at all, Leng Chi suddenly became a little impatient.
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, if you look at today, I always feel that something big is going to happen today."
Hearing Leng Chi say this, Leng Xiao finally understood.
Although he didn't think that the weather was abnormal, something big would happen, but today he has always been uncertain.
But he knew in his heart that Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen were in danger when they stayed in the palace, but he couldn't say these words to Leng Chi.
"Father, don't worry, we have already left the palace, even if that Pu Ba Yan wants to get along with us, I'm afraid it won't be so easy in the palace, besides, General Fu Yao has always sent people around to protect us......"
"It's because we're out of the palace that I'm not at ease.
Xiao'er, I'll tell you the truth, I think it's the dead girl in Leng Yue who is going to have something! ”
"Yue'er?"
"That's right! Over the years, I've rarely had a time when I've been restless, and even if I have to face a life-and-death battle the next day, I've never had one.
But there was only one time, that is, the time when Yue'er was pulled off the cliff by Ruoxue.
The night before that time, I was the same as today, unable to eat and sleep at night, and my whole body was restless, as if there were 10,000 ants scratching them.
So Xiao'er, I'm worried about Yue'er's ......"
Leng Xiao saw Leng Chi say this, and his heart began to worry.
"Father, don't worry, Yue'er is fine, I heard that today Pu Ba Yan and the eldest princess of Jiamu are also holding a banquet for Yue'er, you must be worried about her because you are not by Yue'er's side, so you will worry about her ......"
Leng Xiao's persuasion at this moment, Leng Chi couldn't listen to it anymore.
Although Leng Yue said and did a lot of things that made him angry when he drove him out of the palace, Leng Yue was his daughter.
"No! I'm going to go into the palace and see it for myself! ”
Leng Chi said something in a hurry, and then he was about to go out.
