Chapter Seventy-Six: Goodbye Moon Princess
At night, the moon hung lazily in the sky, its gentle sheen baptizing everyone in this glorious palace.
Only in the Yuehua Palace, the lonely figure in the bathtub quietly poured warm water on his body, I don't know if it was because of the moonlight or the water vapor, Jiang Yue's eyes were filled with a thin layer of mist.
"Mother."
There was a soft call from the maidservant in her ears, and Jiang Yueyue came back to her senses and took the clothes from her hand, "Lian'er, you can just wait outside, and I'll dress it myself." ”
"Yes." The maidservant girl called Lian'er closed the shower curtain for her, and then withdrew with her head bowed.
Jiang Yue pinched the clothes in her hand, the delicate and luxurious material was extremely comfortable to the touch, and the moonlight shone on her body, making her complexion even fairer.
After a long time, Jiang Yueyue walked out, and Lian'er looked at the woman in front of her in a daze, and was stunned for a long time before coming back to her senses.
"Let's go." Jiang Yue said.
"Yes, sissy." Lian'er immediately stepped forward to hold her up.
At this time, the mother is as beautiful as when she first came to the court to meet the king.
Although she thought so, she couldn't say it, because for some reason, her mother never allowed anyone to mention what she looked like when she first came to her.
is obviously wearing a red wedding dress, which is stunningly beautiful, why doesn't she allow others to mention it again?
Putting away the doubts in her heart, Lian'er helped Jiang Yue and slowly walked towards the outside of the hall.
Along the way, Jiang Yueyue's thoughts were pulled back to when she first came to Rongguo, she was personally sent to the capital of Rongguo by Mu Zifeng, at that time, she looked at him with reluctance, and even a little sadness.
As soon as he entered the harem, it was as deep as the sea, could he really bear to send her into the tiger's mouth? No, even if he didn't send himself, he had to come, because he was in control of Jiang Guo's destiny......
Did he know that he was standing at the pass, looking at the appearance of him riding his horse away, and in front of him was the endless Gobi, the yellow sand was full of sky, and the wind and sand blinded his eyes, making tears fall uncontrollably?
He has amnesia, he doesn't remember the past, and I don't blame him...... It's okay to lose his memory, at least he is a little more gentle with himself, Mu Zifeng before the amnesia has always been cold to himself.
Her thoughts were pulled back to more than ten years ago, when she and Mu Zifeng first met.
She remembered that it was when Jiang Guo ushered in the first heavy snowfall, and the queen mother took her to the temple to worship, she got lost because of playfulness, and squatted on the ground alone in the dilapidated corridor and cried. Just when helplessness and fear were eating away at her over and over again, she saw a young man, holding an oil-paper umbrella and wearing mink, walking slowly towards her, like a god, exuding a noble aura all over his body, he was so handsome and charming......
"Xuan-Concubine Yue!"
The voice of the maidservant summoned came from the hall.
Putting away his thoughts, Jiang Yue quickly adjusted his mentality, and looked up at this hall that was not the first time he had come, but it was the first time he felt scared and frightened in his heart.
She didn't want to go in, she didn't want to go in, but she couldn't do anything and had to go in.
"Mother, go in." Lian'er let go of the hand holding Jiang Yueyue, and she turned around and stood outside the main hall, hanging her head.
Jiang Yue sighed, and finally mustered up the courage to walk in.
When she came to the dragon's collapse, she owed a debt and called softly: "The king ......"
When I looked up, I saw a middle-aged man in a yellow robe sitting on the collapse.
The middle-aged man is not ugly, but he is not handsome, but his whole body exudes incomparable nobility. He is the king of Rongguo - Shangguan Haorong.
The moment his gaze fell on Jiang Yueyue, it suddenly became extremely hot.
"Concubine Yue, come on!" Shangguan Haorong hurriedly called, "Come to Lone's side!" ”
Seeing Shangguan Haorong's appearance, Jiang Yue's heart swelled with nausea, but she had to walk in front of him with a gentle smile on her face.
Suddenly, as soon as she lost her voice, her whole person was pulled into Shangguan Haorong's arms.
"The king......" She was a little scared, she didn't want to ......
Jiang Yueyue was so panicked that Shangguan Haorong suddenly lost interest, he let go of his hand, and felt slightly unhappy in his heart, so that Jiang Yueyue, who was sitting on his lap, almost fell to the ground.
"I heard that Concubine Yue's piano skills are good," Speaking of this, he said to the maidservant standing outside the bed, "Come on, take the piano!" ”
When Jiang Yueyue heard this, she took advantage of this to stand aside, and if she didn't look carefully, she couldn't see her slightly trembling fingers.
However, it was still seen by Shangguan Haorong.
Holding back the anger in his heart, he sat on the collapse and quietly watched Jiang Yue sit in front of the piano, slowly plucking the strings.
As soon as she spoke a note, her wrist was gripped tightly.
"The king, the concubine ......" Jiang Yue raised his head and met Shangguan Haorong's extremely cold eyes. She was terrified at the moment.
Shangguan Haorong used force in his hands, looking at her cheeks that were pale because of the pain, and refused to scream, looking at himself unwillingly with a pair of eyes.
Shangguan Haorong was furious, he didn't like her appearance! Who hasn't been respectful to him, and she dares to look at herself like this with this look?!
He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Jiang Yue, Lone gave you face, right?" It's been a year! A full year! Except for the wedding night when you are willing to spend it with Lonely, you never want to let Lone touch you once in the next three hundred and sixty-four nights! If you want to play the piano, you will play the piano, won't you be coquettish to Lone like other concubines? Since you don't want to! So what are you doing here tonight?! Jiang Lixuan sent you to Rongguo, don't forget your mission here! ”
Tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice also had a faint hint of crying, "The concubine doesn't dare, and I hope that the king will forgive her sins." ”
"Get out!" Shangguan Haorong shook Jiang Yue away, "Don't let Gu see you again!" Unless you are willing to come to find Lone, you have to stay in Rongguo for the rest of your life, and what Lone can have is patience. ”
After saying this, Shangguan Haorong turned around.
Jiang Yue stood up from the ground with difficulty, at this time, her tears finally couldn't help but burst out of her eyes, even if it was uncomfortable, she still didn't want to cry, she could only endure it.
Looking down at the abrasion of his left palm, the skin was torn, and blood was slowly flowing down his wrist.
Enduring the pain, she turned and walked out of the hall.
"!" As soon as Jiang Yue came out of the palace, she was seen by Lian'er who was waiting outside, and Lian'er supported Jiang Yue in a panic, "Are you okay, what happened to you with the king?" ”
Since Jiang Yue hid her hand in her sleeve, Lian'er didn't know that she was injured.
"I'm fine," Jiang Yue smiled, "Lian'er, you go back first, I want to go alone." ”
"Niangniang......" Lian'er was a little worried that Jiang Yue was alone.
"Don't worry, I'll go back by myself." After Jiang Yue said this, he walked away by himself.
Lian'er wanted to go up to chase after her, but when she thought of Jiang Yue's temperament, she hesitated slightly, and turned around and left alone.
The moonlight fell on her, illuminating her figure so lonely and lonely, Jiang Yue walked alone on the stone path in the back garden, holding her hand while crying silently.
Why me? Why can it only be me?
Thinking like this, she raised her head and quietly looked at the pond not far away, her hair was a little disheveled, and she seemed a little embarrassed at the moment.
Step by step...... She was getting closer to the pond......
In his ears was the voice from the bottom of his heart: If you die like this, Shangguan Haorong will be furious, and he will not let Jiang Guo go!
There is also a voice: get rid of it sooner! None of this is your business, and you don't have to worry about it all the time.
At this time, she had already stood on the edge of the pond, and if she took another step forward, she would fall, fall into the cold and biting water, choke on her mouth and nose, choke on her lungs, and she would die of suffocation......
It's just that if she dies, she won't know what will happen next.
Lift one foot and get ready to try......
"Girl! Don't! Behind him came a man's mournful cry.
Jiang Yue was startled by this voice, and as soon as she turned around, her body fell straight towards the pond due to the unstable center of gravity.
"Help!" Subconsciously shouted these three words out of his mouth, but his body did not fall into the cold water, but into a warm embrace.
It's you!
Both of them had such a voice in their hearts.
Yes, it was Mu Zifeng who caught Jiang Yueyue, he was bored and wanted to walk casually, who knew that as soon as he walked here, he saw a girl standing by the pond and wanted to die, and screamed in a hurry, but she didn't expect it to catch her off guard and fall into the water, fortunately, she reacted quickly, otherwise she might really fall in!
It's just that Mu Zifeng didn't expect that it would be Jiang Yue who wanted to die! What's wrong with her? Did something happen? Why can't you think about it?
At this moment, Jiang Yueyue's heart was also puzzled, but for some reason, she felt some inexplicable peace of mind in his arms.
Why is that? Why does she feel this way? She had only seen him once, and although he had changed his clothes and put on his mask, she could recognize him at a glance as the man Mu who had met in the afternoon with a cloak covering his face.
Mu Zifeng was the first to come back to his senses, he pulled Jiang Yue under the tree on the side with his backhand, and quickly let go of his hand.
"Thank you, sir, for saving your life." Jiang Yue said to Mu Zifeng.
She looked at him motionlessly, still feeling an inexplicable familiarity with him, and this feeling made her heart beat for a while.
It's weird!
Seeing that she didn't recognize herself, Mu Zifeng breathed a sigh of relief, then suppressed his voice, and said to her in a calm voice: "It turned out to be Concubine Yue's Niangniang, Mu Feng saw Concubine Yue's Niangniang." ”
When she heard Mu Zifeng call her the word "Moon Concubine", her eyes were covered with a layer of mist again.
"Could it be that I said something wrong to make Concubine Yue unhappy?" Mu Zifeng looked at her suspiciously.
