Chapter 125: Rebellion in the South
Unprepared, Miyahata kissed me.
My already vague consciousness turned into a whirlwind in an instant, and I allowed the last of my strength to pull away from my body, and threw myself into the hot arms of Miyahata without reservation.
It was the first rain of spring in the thirsty and cracked earth, and it was the long-imprisoned magma rushing over the bare and dusty mountain rocks. It is a period of instinctive desire, rushing to heaven beyond the minds of all beings.
I kissed him back affectionately, my fingers caressing his silky back and waist.
Like the wind in March helping the mountains, everywhere you pass through is flourishing, and everything grows.
"Miyahata, I'm so cold..."
I saw my wet little clothes scattered between Miyahata's clothes and socks, just like me at this moment, fitting every inch of his skin, blending with the temperature, and telling endless emotions.
A bead of water slid across my face, I don't know if it was my sweat, his sweat, or my tears...
His tears......
It is the end of all things in the world, drought and rain, cold and scorching, soft and hard, yin and yang, water and fire.
Me and him.
Caught off guard and desperately thirsty, the rain seeps into the surface and flows deep into the fragile and complex roots of the plants that are about to awaken.
"It hurts, Miyahata."
"Don't be afraid."
The butterfly breaks the chrysalis, and the colorful wings have transformed from a curled insignificance to a brilliant fluttering wing. That is the end of the chrysalis and the beginning of the butterfly.
I don't remember how long we stayed near the Diving Spring, or how he carried me back to my courtyard.
As I became conscious, I only remember that we never stopped.
I regained my strength at the end of the day, when Miyahata had been gone for nearly half an hour, and I emerged from the wet and warm bedding and sat quietly on the edge of the bed against the frame. Thinking of last night's wedding with the palace curtain, the mood by the Qianjiao Spring collapsed, but it was already like something that happened in the previous life.
Something that had been floating in my heart sank, and I felt more determined than ever, and I and him had become an inseparable whole. It's not because of last night, but I finally realize that in the fate of loving him, any deliberate alienation and reluctant forgetting is a self-deception, an illusion of stupidity. In the end, it will only be in the torrent of desire, which will get deeper and deeper.
Given that Gong Wei had already dealt with him, there would be a thousand times if there was one. In addition, that ambitious man has always regarded the Prince's Mansion as an old enemy, which is a great threat to me to stay here. Maybe in the next few days, I'll have to take care of him with some heart.
Soon after, the palace was carried in by the subordinates, and I carried him away, dragged him to bed alone, and gradually took off his coat, and had a plan in my heart, just waiting for him to wake up tomorrow morning.
As soon as the faint morning light entered the room through the window, Guan Ju and Pu Jia hurriedly ran in.
"Girl! Are you alright, what happened last night, the slave only remembered to come back and get your clothes, how did you wake up in your room-"
"βshh
Guan Ju was silent, and then followed the direction of my finger to see the palace curtains lying on the bed, all dressed and unproductive, and couldn't help but gasp.
"Girl, you and Your Highnessβ"
"Don't make a fuss." I glanced at Guan Ju, "Pu Jia, bring me my rouge." β
Although Pu Jia was also shocked in the spot, she listened to my instructions, so she also went to the bottom of the dressing table drawer and took the fat powder box and handed it to me. I ran a little bit of my little finger over it, and wiped it into my eyesβ
"-Girl! What are you doing! β
There was a deep groan behind me, and I turned my head to see that the palace was woken up by Guan Ju's exclamation. He opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw me standing in front of the bed, he began to eat and laugh. And when I rubbed my eyes and looked at it again, I saw my eyes red and tears rippling, and I was suddenly so sleepy that I couldn't sleep at all.
"Lian'er, what's wrong with you?"
I turned my heart sideways, and without saying anything, I threw my face into the fat and soft breasts exposed by the palace curtain, and cried out loud.
"Your Highness, you are responsible for your concubines......"
The palace was stunned by my sudden intimate behavior, and at this moment, seeing me crying like this, he became more and more confused, and he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. I stretched out my hand to slowly lift the quilt, and on the bright yellow embroidered big red sheets, a red blood stain appeared in front of the palace curtain.
"Thisβ" There was a moment of confusion in his bright little eyes, and then he said to me dumbfounded, "Lian'er? β
I cried more and more fiercely, and when the palace lady saw me like this, he came down from heaven like joy, hugged me and laughed. After that, he gave me a lot of gold and silver jewelry, rare treasures, and even materials for making small clothes and shoes for babies, and cherished me more and more. I took this opportunity to persuade the palace lady not to have sex with me for a month on the grounds of waiting to see if there would be fetal gas.
Although he was reluctant, when he saw the way my tears rippled, he had nothing to rely on.
Since then, the palace officials thought that they had accomplished a great deal with me, and not only were they not as entangled as they were before the wedding, but even the guards who guarded my daily life and entry were removed.
Taking advantage of this, I always borrowed the excuse of going to Lifu to visit my father-in-law, and returned to Taopinlou to visit everyone. And in order to avoid the ears and eyes of the two sons, I only took Guan Ju with me every time, leaving Pu Jia in the house to monitor the movements of my subordinates.
Wanqiu took excellent care of Zhuo Ying, but in just a few days, every time I went, she became much more energetic. And Aunt Hua was originally worried about me like the Prince's Mansion, but now that she sees that I am diligent, she doesn't have so much gossip.
On this day, when the palace was in the court, I shared dinner with him, and I heard him say that the new monarch of the Southern Desert was full of vigor and repeatedly harassed Daxin from the cold border. The emperor deliberately suppressed it and wanted to send a prince out to have a good experience. And Yan Peng Ling, the secretary of the military department, actually sent me to the prince to lead the troops to suppress it.
"What is the identity of this palace, if there is a mistake, it will be returned!"
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he threw his chopsticks hard, and I saw that he was really angry, so I had to get up and pick up the chopsticks.
"The concubine once heard her father-in-law say that the dealings with Nanmo have always been handled by the three princes. If that one is so experienced, why bother to work for you, the prince? β
Yan Pengling said that although the third child is also a prince, he is only a prince in the end, and his status is not noble enough. I can't let the indifferent people know that I attach great importance to Lihan, and I can't show my determination to not give up an inch of land. Gong Wei sneered, "I don't know if I look at this palace?" That Yan Peng Ling is a friend of the third child, so retreat is advancing, what kind heart can he have! β
"That's what happened!" I exclaimed, "Then Your Highness can't even go!" The third prince has always been clear about the situation in the south, and this time his people tried their best to advise the prince to lead the troops, it is bound to be that their military department got the news in advance, and the danger of this battle can be imagined! β
Seeing that I was anxious, the palace maid really thought that I was worried about his safety, so he flattened his face and smiled softly at me, "Don't worry, Lian'er, the prince who led the troops this time is not a husband, but the fifth child." β
"What..."
"I didn't expect that nerd to have a time to come out." Gong Wei didn't notice the worry on my surprised look, and still laughed to himself, "It was originally a small head of the Criminal Department, and Jin Yan said that the status of the East Palace is noble, and it can't be easy to take risks. And the fifth son of the emperor, the young man of the palace flag, has no military merits, and he should take this opportunity to go out and experience it, and come back to earn the title of the king of the county. β
"How does this make ah," I said in a panic, "who doesn't know that the Fifth Highness... His qualifications are stupid and dull, and it is difficult for him to take on big responsibilities. This trip is quite dangerous, it doesn't matter if he breaks it, the court can't joke with the lives of soldiers and the prestige of the country! β
Guan Jujia on the side was shocked when she heard this, and she didn't know how many times she secretly poked me in the back. I also know that as a crown princess and concubine, it is a big sin to talk about national politics. But this time it is obvious that the palace curtain set up a killing game for the palace curtain, how can you let the palace banner be a substitute for the dead ghost......
"Lian'er is too worried. Although Lao Wu is not a talent for leading soldiers, but he is just a desert, and what kind of storm can be set off, it is a big deal to give him more soldiers. "The palace lady smiled heroically." Even if the desert country came prepared this time and kidnapped him to be a proton, if he can exchange the border stability of the two countries for decades, it will be his creation. β
"Just... Even so, what if the desert people are mad and kill the five highnesses to demonstrate! β
"No, no, indifferent and pedantic, the most important etiquette. The two countries are at war, and there is no precedent for beheading a noble envoy since ancient times. Gong Wei didn't care, and a pair of small eyes suddenly showed a bit of ferocity, "If they really dare to kill, then it just gave me a reason to send troops with a million heroes and unify the Central Plains!" β
Seeing that the palace was so calculating, I also knew that he didn't care about the safety of the palace banner at all, and it would be useless to say anything more, so I had to keep silent.
At night, the palace guard went to the front yard to sleep alone as we agreed. Guan Ju and Pu Jia waited for me to lie down, and after blowing out the candle and leaving, my heart was still uneasy. The two tigers are fighting, and the palace flag is the tiger cub on the side, how can he not be hurt by it? This was the case of the Flying Knife Flame on the Halloween Festival, and it is the same now. The palace curtain is fierce, I think it is not easy to protect the prince's mansion, how can I protect him......
"Banner Master?"
I was startled and subconsciously sat up. But I saw a figure standing outside the screen, which was very regular.
"Yuyue?" I leaned over and said, "Is that you, come in!" β
Under the moonlight, I saw Yu Yue dodge into the inner room, and knelt down to me without raising his eyes, only staring at the inch carpet in front of him and said: "Meet the flag owner, my subordinates came here late at night, and I have something important to inform the flag owner, please forgive the flag owner." β
"It's okay, just say it."
"Banner master, my subordinates saw Fang Zhiyun, the head of the Criminal Department, come to Prince Huan's Mansion in the dead of night to meet the three princes."
I was a little confused: "Who's that?" β
"Does the banner lord know that in the court today, the ministers are discussing who will lead the troops to Lihan to quell the chaos?"
"I know, the palace secretary told me..."I suddenly remembered the words of the afternoon, "I know, it's the head of the criminal department who ordered the palace to lead the troops to the battle!" β
