Cold Shadow (4)
Xie Lan had a dream, and in the dream was a red plum flying in the sky.
With such a wonderful beauty, he only saw the looming figure in the red plum forest, and the red plum blossom danced with the sword, just like the fragrance of April.
However, he didn't see anything clearly, and he woke up from his dream.
When I woke up, I saw a cold shadow next to the bed, and the night was still emitting a cold light. Xie Lan looked at Hanying seriously, and vaguely remembered that Xuan Jinhuan had told him stories related to Hanying, which had an inextricable relationship with plum blossoms; It's a strange dream to think about it!
Unconsciously and carefully, he took the Cold Shadow Sword into his arms, trying to use his own warmth to drive away the Sword Cold.
It was as if he was enchanted and fascinated by the sword.
And all of this originated from the dream of the red plum flying shadow.
Even Xuan Jinhuan sensed that something was wrong with Xie Lan, his expression was in a trance, and he looked like he was in love with something.
Until Xuan Jinhuan couldn't help but ask, in fact, Xie Lan didn't notice anything unusual about him at all; It was only now that he recalled it carefully, and he said slowly: "I had a very strange dream······ He described the bizarre dream to Xuan Jinhuan as much as possible, and then the more he described it, the more messy it became.
It's just a dream! Originally, Xuan Jinhuan didn't think much about it, but Yi Yu said more: "Didn't you make the Lord meet the dream ghost, right?" ”
Xie Lan hadn't heard of it, and thought it was very strange: "What is a dream ghost?" ”
Yi Yu told with great spirits: "The dream ghost is a kind of monster in the legend that will take away people's souls and make people have nightmares. ”
This is obviously a story in ancient mythology, Xuan Jinhuan did not think it was true: "There are many legends in these years, and some people say that there are human beasts and pasta man-eating monsters in Xishan; Isn't this dream as mysterious as the human beast and the man-eating monster? ”
Xie Lan also nodded in agreement with what Xuan Jinhuan said.
However, after Yi Yu left, Xuan Jinhuan stretched out his hand to check Xie Lan's pulse, and looked at his expression again, making sure that he should not have been tricked before he was a little relieved: "It's okay for the time being, but I will wait for my stepmother to come to the royal capital and ask her to make further confirmations." ”
"I didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but it seemed weird to think about it." Xie Lan said at this time.
"Anyway, it's better to be careful." Xuan Jinhuan whispered.
Xie Lan cautiously touched the cold and penetrating scabbard of the cold shadow; The cold shadow is as clean as snow, and the sword scabbard is engraved with a plum shadow, looking at it like a plum fragrance.
Xuan Jinhuan also glanced at the cold shadow a few times, thoughtful.
The plum shadow is sufficient, and the fragrance is lingering.
That night, the last season of plum blossoms in early spring in the south of the royal capital city bloomed, and the red plums fluttered in the wind, just like the situation in Xie Lan's dream.
His dream is just like the red plum in the mountains south of the royal capital.
Because Xie Lan heard the news that Zhu Jiming and Princess Guanghua took their youngest son Zhu Yueze to live in Zhuangzi in the south of the city, he wanted to look at the eldest sister from a distance again, so as to silently say goodbye to the eldest sister in his heart; Xuan Jinhuan accompanied Xie Lan over, even if there was any special situation at that time, she could adapt to the situation, and recently she heard the news related to Princess Guanghua.
"Princess Guanghua is pregnant." Xuan Jinhuan told Xie Lan, "This time, Princess Guanghua went to Zhuangzi to raise a baby." ”
Xie Lan was surprised that the eldest sister was pregnant again so soon after giving birth to Xiao Yue Ze, but she still felt happy when she heard the news: "Before, the eldest sister and brother-in-law originally wanted to go to the border, but Your Majesty didn't allow it······ Wang Du, I don't like Wang Du either, everyone is always thinking about how to plan others. ”
Xuan Jinhuan just lowered his head and smiled bitterly, the capital of the dynasty has always been full of dignitaries, and the royal family and nobles have always fought endlessly for fame, fortune and power, which is not new.
They stood far away under the building plaque, watching Zhu Jiming and Princess Guanghua snuggle up and be very affectionate, Xiao Yue Ze was still held in the arms of the nurse, waving his little arms. Xie Lan could see the gods, and stared at the pair for a long time; However, Princess Guanghua looked back at this side as if she suddenly realized something, and her expression was a little hopeful or incredulous.
"Zexi, what's wrong?" Zhu Jiming asked.
"No, nothing." Princess Guanghua shook her head and put away the strange look just now.
It wasn't until she couldn't see their husband and wife anymore that Xie Lan remembered that the eldest sister of the stone fang couldn't see them standing here across the building.
For some reason, he felt a little lonely, and he didn't know what he was looking forward to.
"Do you still want to meet Princess Guanghua? She would be glad to know that you are still alive. Xuan Jinhuan asked Xie Lan tentatively, after all, their sister and brother have a good relationship, and even if Princess Guanghua knew that Xie Lan was still alive, she would not spread it again.
"Or don't." Xie Lan shook her head, "That's fine." Eldest sister, they are all fine. Anyway, I'm a dead man now, so why bother scaring people anymore. ”
Hearing Xie Lan say this, the corners of Xuan Jinhuan's lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
On the way back, I happened to pass by the red plum forest in the south of the city, and I saw the plum fragrance like a dream.
Xie Lan stared blankly at the plum blossoms, but for a long time she didn't know what terrible things she remembered, so she fled.
Xuan Jinhuan didn't know what the situation was, and when he saw the beautiful Merlin, he was stunned for a moment and remembered what Xie Lan had said before, and vaguely understood the reason.
Seongnam Merlin?
"I've never been to Merlin in the south of the city, but I've dreamed of it." Xie Lan said gloomily.
"Is it that dream?" Xuan Jinhuan asked.
"Hmm." Xie Lan nodded, reluctant to say more.
It's a strange thing, and dreams shouldn't be like this.
Xuan Jinhuan vaguely remembered that the plum blossoms in the south of the city were very beautiful, but now that he thinks about it carefully, he even faintly feels terrible; Xie Lan stretched out her hand and hugged Xuan Jinhuan with some uneasiness, and murmured in a low voice: "Even in the Yong'an Secret Realm, I have never been so afraid. I don't know why, but I just feel panicked. ”
Xuan Jinhuan gently stroked his back: "It's okay, it's okay, even if someone is doing it, we will definitely find out the demons and monsters." ”
Xie Lan still closed his eyes in horror, and then nodded; But after groaning, he felt that it seemed strange just now, so he frowned and asked Xuan Jinhuan: "Did you treat me as a child just now?" Just now, Xuan Jinhuan stroked his gesture, and remembered that he had seen Xie Ye wronged many years ago, and then Ning Ji stroked him like this and comforted him.
Xuan Jinhuan laughed dryly twice.
"Do you like kids?" Xie Lan suddenly asked on a whim.
"Why do you suddenly ask like that?" Xuan Jinhuan always felt as if she had been dug a pit and was waiting for her to jump down, "The child is so cute, why don't you like it?" ”
Xie Lan proposed: "Then if we become husband and wife in the future, will we have a few more children?" ”
Yes? Xuan Jinhuan was stunned for a moment, and then his cheeks flushed with a strange flush.
