Chapter 106: Drinking

The Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet broke up unhappily.

Ming Ran returned to Fenghua Palace full of worries, and when he entered the room, he realized that Xiao Yiqian had not come.

She sat down on the soft couch, her thoughts drifting away.

Xiao Yichen used fraud to gain the enemy's disdain, so when Jiang Guo's army thought that the Celestial Empire army was busy with King Chen's death, he took the lead in attacking the Celestial Empire, but he didn't want the Celestial Empire to set a trap and just wait for Jiang Guo's attack.

Ming Ran smiled knowingly, this was indeed a plan that Xiao Yichen could come up with.

"Zhuqing, give me two pots of wine." She sat cross-legged on the soft couch.

Zhuqing walked up to Ming Ran and whispered, "Niangniang, why do you want to drink?" ”

Mingran looked at her with a smile, "Go ahead." ”

Zhuqing had no choice but to go out and warm two pots of hot wine.

Mingran took the wine, bowed his head and poured out a glass and drank it.

Tears welled up in her eyes, "He's still alive, but I'm dead." ”

Xiao Yichen can still work the battlefield to protect her family and defend the country, but she can only be trapped in this city wall and cannot leave the palace all year round. A woman's life is buried here, and the meaning of life cannot be found.

If it weren't for Mrs. Ming and the Hou Mansion, she would really be desperate to leave here and leave this cage.

Zhuqing's face was shocked, "Niangniang, what are you talking about?" ”

"You go and summon Concubine Li over."

Zhu Qing frowned and nodded, and immediately went to Yuehua Palace.

When Feng Yixuan arrived, Ming Ran was already confused, and his expression was drunk.

She walked over to Mingran and sat down, "Why did Niangniang drink?" ”

Mingran leaned on her shoulder, "I just want to have some drink, I want to find someone to talk to." ”

Feng Yixuan smiled lightly, "That concubine will accompany you." ”

She picked up another jug of wine, didn't ask for a glass, just took the jug and poured a slightly warm drink into her mouth.

Mingran couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, "I just like you to be so bold." ”

"It is an honor for a concubine to be liked by her mother."

"Yixuan, do you know? In fact, in my heart today," Ming Ran said, closing his eyes, recalling how he felt when he heard that King Chen was still alive tonight, and he couldn't find an adjective.

Feng Yixuan covered her lips, "The concubine understands, Niangniang doesn't need to say it." ”

Mingran took her hand away and shook her head, "No, you won't understand. ”

"Even if the concubine doesn't understand, the mother doesn't need to say it." She threw her head back and drank.

Mingran laughed at herself, yes, it was meaningless for her to say these words, although she wanted to talk, but this palace was really not a good place, and it was not suitable for talking.

She misses the modern age, the place where it only takes a few hours to bring people thousands of miles apart together. She misses her dad so much, and she misses everything in modern times.

She tilted her head and looked at Feng Yixuan's shoulder, Feng Yixuan drank with her head bored and didn't say much.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Ming Ran said eloquently, "There is a place, where people are monogamous, where people can fly in the sky and swim in the water, where the songs are beautiful and beautiful, and where people will not be missed, even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can see each other, they can hear each other's voices, and the people there."

She whimpered, sobbed twice, and continued, "The people there are very free, there are no slaves, there is no imperial power, there is no nobility, everyone is equal, everyone who works hard, can live happily, everything there is free, it is really beautiful there." The people there will not regard life as grass, there will be no war and chaos, and no life will be ruined......"

Feng Yixuan suddenly asked, "Where are you talking about?" Why have the concubines never heard of it? ”

Ming Ran was slightly stunned, she thought that Feng Yixuan didn't listen to her, but she didn't want to be asked by her suddenly.

"That place is where my heart is."

Ming Ran couldn't tell her what kind of place it was, and she only knew how beautiful and peaceful the place she once lived in ancient times.

Feng Yixuan sneered, as if she felt that Ming Ran's words were too unbelievable, she tilted her head and stretched out her hand to scratch the tip of her nose, "How can there be such a place in the world, I'm afraid it's not a dream." ”

Mingran smiled bitterly and was noncommittal. secretly said in her heart, of course there is such a place, and she used to live in such a place.

At that time, she never thought it was very good, but now she understands that the world is simply heaven.

Feng Yixuan didn't take her words to heart, "Niangniang, the concubine really envy you." ”

Mingran's head left her shoulder, poured out a glass of wine and drank it, a touch of tea mocking the corner of her mouth, "What do you envy me?" Envy me but can't love it? ”

"The concubines envy you for loving you as much as the emperor."

Ming Ran put the wine glass on the table heavily, and his face turned cold, "Are you saying that I don't know what to do?" Don't know how to cherish the emperor's heart? ”

Feng Yixuan's face sank, and she immediately explained, "The concubine didn't have it, the concubine just felt ......"

She just felt that Xiao Yiqian sometimes looked quite lonely, and Mingran lived in a palace not far from him, but he didn't dare to come in.

Feng Yixuan knew Xiao Yiqian's helplessness, he would occasionally mention Ming Dye without a trace in front of her, and would stand not far from Fenghua Palace, looking at Fenghua Palace from afar.

In fact, isn't the emperor a poor man?

"Alright, you can go back." Mingran got up unhappily, but she walked to the edge of the window lattice, opened the window sash, and the breeze suddenly blew into the house, and her drunkenness dissipated instantly.

Feng Yixuan got up and drank a few more sips, the strength of the wine hit at this moment, making her feel dizzy, and she had no intention of staying, she just wanted to go back to Yuehua Palace as soon as possible to lie down.

"The concubine's amount of alcohol is really worrying, and the concubine retired first." Her face flushed slightly, and her eyes seemed to be unable to open as she spoke.

Fortunately, the tone was as usual.

Ming Ran waved his hand, and the palace maid at the door entered the house, walked in front of Feng Yixuan and helped her out of the house.

In the dark night sky, the bright full moon hung high, and the bright moonlight sprinkled over the entire palace.

Ming Ran looked at the window railing, looked up at the sky, and couldn't help but feel sad, maybe because she drank a few glasses of wine, and the melancholy in her heart was infinitely magnified, or maybe because today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the moon on the frontier must be the same as what she saw in front of her.

The grief in her heart was released little by little.

Obviously thinking about it, everything is over, and he can live, which is her biggest prayer, she shouldn't have other illusions, but why, she still thinks of him like this in her heart at the moment? Hearing that he was alive, her longing grew stronger.

Behind him came footsteps into the house.

She thought it was Zhuqing, and she didn't look back, still looking at the sky, her head resting on the window lattice. The wind outside the window blew into the room, the light of the candle flame jumped, and the room was silent.

She sighed and turned around, lowered her head and walked to the edge of the couch, and suddenly a pair of white and gold-threaded dragon boots came into her eyes, and she hurriedly looked up.

saw Xiao Yiqian sitting on the soft couch, staring at her without saying a word.
