"Then princess, don't you like Xue Zhao? We really can't understand it, General Xue is so good, to be honest, we can't find a reason why you don't like him. A palace maid pursed her lips, and after a while, she finally couldn't help but ask such a question.

Li Xiyun smiled, her beauty and her brightness precipitated in the bronze mirror and turned into an eternal picture.

"I like it!" She said.

Xiao Yao opened her mouth to say something again, but she interrupted her.

She continued: "Bengong likes his character, likes his sense of responsibility, likes his handsomeness, likes his many advantages, but that kind of 'like' may only be the content of appreciation, as Bengong said before, everyone has a love for beauty, a beautiful thing, everyone will appreciate it, but it does not necessarily produce that kind of love that must be together." ”

Xiao Yao shook her head, maybe she was simple-minded, and she couldn't understand Li Xiyun's arguments for a while.

Li Xiyun sighed when she saw her like this.

"I have thousands of good men in the Tang Dynasty, Xiao Yao, you are still young, you have not yet married, but there are some girls who are a few years older than you, they have found their other half, they have been with the other half for several years, they have started a family and are in love with each other, do you think, those girls who have already married a family, let them choose one between Xue Zhao and their men now, who will they choose?"

Xiao Yao seemed to hesitate for a moment, and finally said, "It should be my own man......"

Li Xiyun nodded.

"So......" she said, "In your opinion, Xue Zhao is better than many men, better than those girls' men, but their appreciation of Xue Zhao is only an appreciation of beautiful things, they don't necessarily have to get together with Xue Zhao, because they have their own loved ones, Xue Zhao is better than their men, it doesn't mean that all of them will rush to marry Xue Zhao and abandon their own men, because, in some ways, their men, in their eyes, are irreplaceable, even if Xue Zhao is excellent." ”

"I admire Xue Zhao and think he is really good, but I don't have feelings for Xue Zhao, that kind of appreciation is just a human instinct for the pursuit of beautiful things on the surface, not love from the depths of the soul."

Li Xiyun's words tonight have been talked deeply enough, and she has always remained silent about the goodwill and personal "self-righteousness" of almost all the people in the Northern Tang Dynasty to her and Xue Zhao, not denying or affirming, but it is precisely because of this that most people think that she is the default gesture.

Even the palace maids and guards who were so close to her thought so, and they couldn't get close to her state of mind at all.

She said so much tonight, and almost everything was clear, so these palace maids here finally understood what she was thinking-she liked to admire Xue Zhao, but she didn't have feelings for Xue Zhao, at least for the time being.

"Alas-" Xiao Yao sighed softly, and said with some sorrow: "Princess, you are also so good, most stinky men are not worthy of you, since you don't feel like Xue Zhao who is made in heaven with you, then where is your future?" ”

Li Xiyun pulled up her incense sleeves, and her phoenix eyes swept lightly across the mirror makeup table, she took a few steps, came to the bead curtain, gently lifted it, and finally stopped at the Zhu Gate, looking at the night sky.

The starry sky is vast and has a strange beauty.

Those palace maids of the Changliu Palace followed slowly, not knowing why their princess walked to the Zhu Gate and looked at the night sky.

"Where is the future of this palace......" Li Xiyun's voice seemed to be in a dream.

At the end, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile, and at the same time she seemed to be a little distracted.

"The future of this palace is buried in the past!" She said.

Listening to her words, a sad look appeared on the faces of Xiao Yao and almost all the palace maids.

Yes, Li Xiyun's future is buried in the past, there is her helplessness as a princess, and of course, her own death.

She is different from Ji Ru, and there are some things that she wants to get involved in.

"Princess, you are the pride of heaven, the suffering will always pass, and you will always get the most beautiful and happy ......"

A palace maid whispered, but what she didn't understand was that Li Xiyun's words sounded very sad, but why was the princess smiling, and there was hope and happiness in those smiles, although they were very, very slight, but they still felt it.

"Hmm......" The corners of Li Xiyun's mouth were slightly hooked, and her red lips had a bewildering brightness under the moonlight and lights, "Although it looked like a little bitter in the past, I don't know why, from the very beginning, and then thinking back to the present, there is actually a little bit of sweetness." ”

Those palace maids couldn't understand her more and more, because Li Xiyun seemed to recall something, and she seemed to be slightly happy.

"Well, sometimes, many things in the world are not as natural as we imagined, but they will always deviate from the trajectory," Li Xiyun's eyes slowly lowered from the night sky, as if looking at the south through Qionglou Yuyu, "You always think that Bengong will fall in love with Xue Zhao, and then we will be very happy together, but before Bengong has time to fall in love with him, he was given a marriage to someone." ”

"That's a fool!" Xiao Yao's face was filled with anger, "A disgusting thing that is delusional and daydreaming!" ”

Their anger, like most people in the Northern Tang Dynasty, is so difficult to suppress, because Her Royal Highness the flawless princess in their hearts is flawed because of that "thing", although it has not been tarnished in any way, but their hearts feel tainted, so they hate that "thing" so much.

Li Xiyun frowned slightly, as if she didn't like it, she wanted to refute something immediately, but in the end she chose to wait for the time being.

"If it weren't for him, princess, you would definitely fall in love with Xue Zhao, maybe that guy has become your inner demon, Xiao Yao thinks so." Xiao Yao continued to say angrily, while clenching Xiu's fists.

Feeling that Xiao Yao vented a little bit because of the anger of these words, and thus his mood was a little soothed, Li Xiyun finally spoke.

She still looked at the south, although it was blocked by Qionglou Yuyu, she said: "If there was no marriage, maybe he and I would still be very strange, strange to the extreme, but life is really interesting sometimes, and later, the palace gradually found that some little people who looked down on them in the past would have such a bright brilliance, and even ......"
