Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Prosperous Night Scene
Mo Yingge regretted it in her heart, but she also knew that even if she came again, she was afraid that she would still come here.
The two of them looked like they were talking and laughing, but what they were thinking about was nothing kind.
A game of exploitation, possession, and temptation, it's always like this.
"Your Highness, where are you going?"
The sky is getting darker, and although the snow reflects off the light, the gradually darkening environment is always frightening.
What's more, this person in front of him had made such a terrifying joke.
Mo Yingge couldn't help but worry about her safety.
Zhao Shengyi was indifferent, a little interested.
"It's just a place with a great view."
Mo Yingge naturally didn't dare to believe it, but he was still a little looking forward to it, after all, this Merlin was also a forbidden place, but there was nothing strange about it.
“…… The little woman was looking forward to it. ”
Zhao Shengyi ignored the hesitation in Mo Yingge's tone, and the group continued to walk higher up the mountain.
After about some time, the sun set and the moon rose, and the lights in the house could already be seen from the height of Mo Yingge and his party.
Looking at the Yiwang Mansion at night from a high place, I have another feeling.
Some of the lights are there, some are not, and they seem to be warm fireflies.
And this is also the first time that Mo Yingge has seen the whole situation of King Yi's Mansion, the garden, the Moon Chasing Pavilion, the corridor, the main hall, etc., and several places she has been to are indeed brightly lit.
But looking closely, in some corners, places she had never been to, the corners of King Yi's mansion, it seemed that there were dark shadows moving, but there was no light and she couldn't tell whether it was a maid or something else.
When she was a little surprised to look at the scene of light and darkness in King Yi's mansion, she suddenly heard Zhao Shengyi speak a little farther away.
"White girl, it's here."
Zhao Shengyi did not reply.
Mo Yingge came back to his senses and hurriedly caught up.
I saw that the place where Zhao Shengyi was located seemed to be one of the highest places where this mountain could be settled.
When I walked behind Zhao Shengyi, I found that looking down from this place was the outline of the imperial capital.
At this time, the imperial capital, because it was still in the night market, the lights everywhere were endless.
If there is a boundary in the Yiwang Mansion that is completely blind, the dimest part of the night market is also with sporadic lights.
From here, you can see the towering Chaoyun Tower at this time, the lights in it are so bright that it seems that the night has not come, this building is the most luxurious jewel of the imperial capital.
There seems to be a temple pagoda in the distance, and there are fewer lights.
And the rest of the market is also bustling with people, even more lively than in the daytime.
Bustling.
It was this word that Mo Yingge could feel at this time.
"I don't know why His Highness took me to see the prosperous night scene of this imperial capital?"
Some of the light in the distant imperial capital was imprinted on Zhao Shengyi's body.
I can't see clearly.
"Naturally, I want to show you."
Of course, Mo Yingge didn't believe that this was a joke, he must have some plans.
But if it is in love in his heart, Mo Yingge wants to believe it.
"I want to show you the prosperity of this imperial capital, and I want to ask you if you have seen this scenery. I want to ask you if you are willing to stay with me to keep this prosperity. ”
Zhao Shengyi's tone rarely showed sincerity and pride.
Mo Yingge turned his eyes to look at Zhao Shengyi, Zhao Shengyi's eyes were rare and clear, and the stars of the imperial capital were printed with light, as if they were broken gold, all in these eyes.
His Highness laughed...... The little woman is just a grass people......"
Mo Yingge said it lightly.
'Why does the white girl always say that I am laughing, when do I have so many jokes to say, how are you a grass people, I say it is worth it. ‘
Zhao Shengyi's tone didn't have much waves, but the look of Ling Ran in his eyes was unquestionable.
Mo Yingge didn't know how to answer for a while, but she didn't look at Zhao Shengyi noncommittally, just looked at the prosperity of the imperial capital.
But I heard it clearly, my heart was beating too fast, and I thought my face was already red.
I didn't dare to look at it again, if it was true or false, I didn't dare to think about it, there was a bit of truth in his words.
If it is true, not to mention that you can't figure out your thoughts at this time, how can you answer.
If it is false, then what is this temptation, if it is true, Zhao Shengyi is afraid that it will be another joke.
Thinking about it this way, if it's fake, it's better and less worrying.
However, in the blink of an eye, although Mo Yingge is a woman, she is free after all, although she doesn't know the government and the opposition, she still knows a lot about the rivers and lakes, so she thought of another explanation of his words.
"When His Majesty the Son of Heaven is well governed, the imperial capital is naturally full of flowers at this time, singing every night. But looking at it, if you want to settle down in this world, I'm afraid it will take some effort......"
Mo Yingge's tone finally calmed down.
Zhao Shengyi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that these words would come from the mouth of such a woman.
It seems that she has brought herself a lot of surprises.
"What the girl said is very true."
The surprise in his eyes flashed, and Mo Yingge didn't notice it because he turned his head away.
She heard that Zhao Shengyi had no objections, and it seemed that such an answer was not impossible, so she continued.
"Although the little girl is just a grass people, if there is something worthy of His Highness's words, the little girl will do her best to do what His Highness needs."
"Can I understand that you agreed?"
Zhao Shengyi's question was asked explicitly.
"How can I promise to say that since the day Your Highness saved the little girl, the little woman has been at your command."
Mo Yingge replied ambiguously.
It seems that today is not the time.
Zhao Shengyi said secretly in his heart.
Then forget it.
The two were silent for a while, just looking at this prosperous scene together, doing the waves in their hearts.
At this time, there is also the fragrance of plum blossoms, dark fragrance, as if the atmosphere flowing between the two people, it is difficult to grasp, elusive.
But both of them seem to have some nostalgia for the atmosphere at this time, ambiguous, and sometimes dangerous.
"Your Highness, it's late at night, and you have to go to court tomorrow, so please go back and rest."
By this time the night had become completely thicker. Chasing the wind reminded on the side.
"Let's go."
Zhao Shengyi turned around and left, and Mo Yingge slowly followed.
The two of them walked down the mountain no longer as slowly as they came, either because they were going downhill, or because they were in a hurry to go back at this time.
In a few moments, the three of them went down the hill, out of the yard, to the garden.
Then they parted ways and went to the Moon Chasing Pavilion or the Prince's Bedroom.
After the separation, Mo Yingge almost began to run back, she couldn't figure out where her panic came from at this time, but she felt that maybe after running, the cold air of this winter night could bring a trace of sobriety to herself.
When he saw the Moon Chasing Pavilion, he almost fled into the pavilion.
He hurried back to the bedroom, and the little warbler chattered on the side and didn't hear it.
Xiao Ying was helpless, but when she saw that Mo Yingge came back late, she was so panicked. felt that it should be inconvenient to ask more, so he didn't ask more, just served her to wash and groom and finished, and retired to rest on the couch in the side room as Mo Yingge did the day before.
"What is your sincerity?"
Mo Yingge couldn't sleep on the couch with his eyes open, and what Zhao Shengyi said poured out of his mind, although at that time, his tone was playful.
"What is my sincerity?"
She muttered.
Tossing and turning, unable to sleep at night. She couldn't give an answer, she couldn't see through the truth, and she didn't know why she was so flustered, so she couldn't help but panic.
Mo Yingge boasted that before entering this imperial capital, he was also well-informed, and he knew the rolling red dust by heart.
As the old man Liu wandered around practicing medicine, and there were some brothers who had been up and down all year round, Mo Yingge thought that she was used to seeing life and death, and bloody wind and rain, she knew that her experience was not unique, but she still felt more and more that Zhao Shengmin, who had taken away a lot of her cherished life, was unforgivable.
She thinks that what else can be in the world, life and death have been seen through, how can she not see through love?
But at this time, Mo Yingge realized that she really couldn't see through, let alone Zhao Shengyi, she couldn't even know what kind of situation she was in.
It's just because I'm in this mountain.
Reasoned by the fragrance of plum blossoms in the mountains.
One night, she silently recited what Zhao Shengyi had said.
"What is your sincerity? Are you willing to guard this prosperity with me? What about the grass people? Worth it is worth it......"
Before I knew it, Mo Yingge fell asleep.
In the dream, it was the plum blossom again, but there was no one to be seen. It's just that the plum blossom forest is blooming, and the imperial capital is bustling in the distance.
I don't know what it means.
Then he woke up again as if he was drunk.
Another day, it is time to continue to treat his 'leg disease'.
I got up in poor spirits and sat on the edge of the bed in a physiological daze.
When Xiao Ying saw it, she naturally hurriedly greeted her.
"Sister, sister, you haven't been in good spirits since you came back yesterday, why don't you rest for a while?"
Xiao Ying, who always urged her to go out in the past, actually persuaded her to rest at this time?
"No, it's already time...... It is ...... that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs to be consulted."
Mo Yingge was a little stunned at this time, but he couldn't react to how to react when he found out, but he just felt that it was better to go to see him.
"Sister doesn't have to go to the court today, His Royal Highness sent someone earlier today to say that he has gone to the court, and there are important things to do after that, and he won't be back for a while......"
Mo Yingge reacted for a while before he understood what Xiao Ying had just said.
Well, let's rest for a while.
These days, I get up early every day, and I have been wronged by the perennial bed-ridden Mo Yingge.
In a moment she fell asleep again, and no more than anything else had happened yesterday.
On the other hand, Zhao Shengyi was already above the court at this time.
Just now, Zhao Shengmin took the lead in reporting the pacification of another bandit in recent days.
At this time, the emperor asked about the assassination of the crown prince who had ordered him to investigate a few days ago.
"In this assassination, according to the white doctor who was present, there was a tattoo on the thief's body, and the tattoo seemed to be the mark of some gang, but it has not yet been found out which gang it is...... It could be some gangs or other ...... that have become more active around the Imperial City recently."
For a while, there were some small discussions among the ministers.
On the edge of the imperial city, that is there collusion?
Bai Guoan, who was waiting below and didn't dare to speak, was suddenly startled, remembering that he was threatened not long ago, if Zhao Shengyi said this at this time, he was afraid that he would have to investigate it thoroughly.
