Chapter 285: Immersed in Darkness

If all the pills have failed, what will happen to the person? Fourth brother, he won't even understand such a simple truth, right? Li Jiu stood in the courtyard. The wind came in the courtyard, blowing all the iris petals, and even some of the flowers were not gentle enough to shed some of the leaves.

In this court, all the places were filled with the dampness and decay of the dead, and only the occasional wind passing by here and not stopping could make him feel a trace of freshness and refreshment. Li Jiu quietly took out a jade flute with a white body, put it horizontally to his lips, and the song "Guan Ju" began. The tune is so melodious, yet so sad.

Suddenly, even the wind in the air was filled with a faint sadness and desolation.

"Rustle."

"Rustle."

"Rustle."

Behind him seemed to be the sound of the wind, and it seemed to be the sound of falling leaves returning to the land.

Li Jiu seemed to notice something, turned his head back, and glanced at the dormitory a hundred meters behind him from a distance, and the woman who came with him in it...... Is she okay?

How long can she hold on to this state of sleep, I heard that these days, if it weren't for the care of the bearded guest and the other miracle doctors, I heard that the doctors tried their best to think of a lot of ways to maintain her life, otherwise it would be impossible for her to live according to the way she is now. After all, a person can sleep, but he can't...... Stay for so many days without eating or drinking.

When he thought of this, he was already so lonely that he didn't even have the mood to play the flute.

He wasn't so worried about the woman's life or death, but ...... is worried about his fourth brother, he knows that if the woman can't wake up, his eldest brother will be silent all the time and won't wake up.

In fact, he didn't know what happened between them, but he could see that this woman named Rong Yan was his fourth brother's favorite.

It's not ordinarily good, it's deeply rooted in his heart.

What can't be pulled out, isn't it love?

Li Jiu is still young and has not yet experienced what love is all about, however, since he grew up in this court, the most scenery he can see is the word love.

Although love in the court, it is far from the word love.

Li Jiu put away his flute, turned around and walked towards the dormitory, however...... When he walked into the dormitory, he found that all the subordinates in the palace had already retreated. Not sure what's going on inside.

He walked a few steps closer to the palace, saw the maid on the side trembling, and pulled him over to ask about the situation.

The maid's expression was a little frightened, as if she couldn't adapt to the closeness that this personable ninth prince had hidden for her.

"What happened?"

"Back to ...... Back to His Highness the Ninth Highness...... It's ......" The little maid couldn't even speak clearly, not even the words coherently.

"What the hell is going on?" He asked.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Nineth, it's actually Miss Rong Yan who woke up." The little maid finally finished the sentence in its entirety. After saying that, two red clouds quietly flew up his cheeks.

"It's a good thing to wake up, how can you ......" Li Jiu frowned, the atmosphere in this palace really didn't make him think of the joyful feeling of a patient who had just recovered from a serious illness.

It's really weird.

The maid suddenly lowered her head, not daring to speak any more.

In the depths of the dormitory, there was a sudden sound of ping-pong.

It was the sound of fine porcelain being smashed to pieces.

"You people, do you have to see you one by one to cure her?"

Li Jiu's eyebrows moved, this voice was his fourth brother, Li Shi.

Walking into the hall of the dormitory, he saw Li Shi angrily picking up a copper tripod with one hand and smashing it towards a person on the ground, the copper tripod was slightly off, smashed on the ground beside him, shattered, and broke out with a great noise.

"This king will say again, you can't heal her eyes, and you will all gouge out your eyeballs to pay off the debt!" Li Jiu's heart jumped when he heard this, and he secretly wondered if the man in front of him who was naked was the big brother he was familiar with?

"Fourth brother," he stepped forward, looked at the inhuman-shaped doctor who was kneeling on the ground and was already trembling with fright, and said with pity for him, "let's go, and you," he looked around and said, "Let's all go down." Leave a few people waiting outside, don't go far. ”

A group of people were pardoned, and they knelt on the ground with tears in their eyes and thanked His Highness Jiu for his great kindness.

"These people, are you angry again?" He walked over and stood beside Li Shi, but his eyes looked at the person in the bed, and found that she had no tendency to wake up at all. Did the little palace maid just now make fun of herself, knowing that she was nervous about this matter again, so she came to coax herself?

She ...... Still haven't woken up? Li Jiu asked.

Li Xian sighed in pain, and suddenly sat down on the low stool next to the bed as if he had no strength, "What should I do, Lao Jiu...... Rong Yan ...... Woke up. ”

"Wouldn't it be nice to wake up?"

"But wouldn't it be a good thing if you woke up and found that you couldn't see anything?" Li sat on the ground in a decadent manner, looking up at the person in front of him in pain, as if it was the first time he saw him, and it seemed that the person in front of him was his real life-saving straw. Won't let go.

Li Jiu was stunned for a long time, held his forehead with one hand, and said, "In the end...... What's wrong? ”

Rong Yan's eyes ...... It's out of sight. His tone was deep, and there seemed to be a hint of life.

***************************

Three days later, in the early morning, when Li Jiu came to the garden in front of his dormitory again, he unexpectedly found that there was a pretty figure, sitting dignified on the swing frame where he often sits, swaying slightly, and the unhurried rhythm made people feel very comfortable and at ease.

The figure was so thin and thin that it gave the impression that a gust of wind could carry her away.

"Is it His Highness the Nine?" He saw that this was interesting, so he stepped forward and walked a few steps, but he didn't expect to be called by her name after only a few steps of walking.

Li Jiu, who heard the person's voice, couldn't help but pause, and subconsciously asked, "Miss Rongyan?" ”

"It's hard for His Highness the Ninth to still hear that it's me." There seems to be some loneliness in her voice, but it is still so crisp and hearty, it seems to be her usual style.

"You...... Is your body better? "Maybe it's because of his brother, so when Li Jiu talks to Rong Yan, he always keeps a distance, this distance is called close when it is close, and when it is far away, it is called avoiding suspicion.

Rong Yan smiled faintly and raised her arm, although it was facing away from him, Li Jiu could still see that the action of raising her arm was also a very difficult thing for Rong Yan. He felt sour in his heart, remembering that Rong Yan was a bold and fast-talking girl before, and now she ...... This look, how can Li Li not be sad when he sees it?

"Miss Rong Yan, how long have you been sitting here?" He didn't know what he should say at this time, and he didn't even know what kind of expression he should use to respond to her at this time.

"I've been sitting here every day since you left that day." Rong Yan smiled and said.

"What are you doing sitting here?"

"I'm waiting for you, waiting for you to play another flute song for me." She finally turned around, and as she said this, Li Jiu saw her eyes.

It shines like two stars in the sky.

Such a pair of eyes...... How can a blind person have eyes?

"Your eyes ......" Li Jiu had a feeling that he didn't know whether he should say or not. But his curiosity drove him to ask.

"You say this." Rong Yan's expression was very gentle, and she just raised her eyes to look at him, "What do you think of me, can I see you now?" ”

Li Jiu hesitated for a long time, raised his hand and dangled it in front of her eyes, but he didn't see any changes in her pupils, and couldn't help but exclaim, "You really can't see things?" ”

"Yes," Rong Yan generously admitted, "probably because I slept for too long, and my eyes are not used to the light, so it has been dark in front of me." ”

"And how did you know I was coming?"

Rong Yan smiled lightly, brushed the broken hair next to her ears, and said with a smile, "Your Highness the Nine, don't you know that the ears of the blind people in this world are very good?" ”

"Since I lost my sight, my hearing has improved a lot, and I can hear even the sound of fallen leaves in the garden now. Isn't it strange, you say? Rong Yan laughed heartlessly, held her cheeks, and said, "Your Highness the Nine, the last time you played that tune, it was very good, can you blow it for me again." ”

"The last time it blew ...... It's "Guan Ju". She seemed to be immersed in her memories and said it, but her understated tone surprised Li Jiu. The hand he had just raised to take out the jade flute stopped, and even took two steps back, looking at the woman on the swing frame with a dead look, "How do you know...... What was the name of the tune I played that day? You shouldn't have woken up that day! ”

Rong Yan "looked" at him and smiled slightly, her thin pointed chin seemed to pierce all his doubts, "Your Highness the Nine, don't you know that when people are unconscious, they can actually hear the voices of the outside world?" She paused and continued, "At that time, I just couldn't speak and act on my own, in fact, I heard every word you and Li Xi said, and I heard it very clearly. ”

She smiled slyly, in this piece of morning dew and early light, she was as beautiful as a fairy, showing a mouthful of pure white teeth, and smiled at him, "I also heard it, you said that you want the Fourth Highness to be careful about my background and origin, right?" ”
