The Coming of the Dead (II) (Part II)

After Li Yan finished speaking, he withdrew, and then quickly left Aokien. It's just that he didn't go back to the prince's mansion directly, but went to a teahouse on the way to drink a cup of tea, wiped his sweat, calmed his beating heart, and dared to go back to see his master. He was very apprehensive, and although what he said in Aokien was told by the prince to say it, he did not say it completely. Yiyi asked him to say that the prince has cherished this brother-sister relationship for many years, and now that his sister is taken care of, he is very pleased, and hopes that his cousin will cherish his benefactor and old friend, this is a gift he gave to the two, and he hopes that the husband will treasure it on behalf of his brother. Cover up this passage, and the meaning of the prince's teacup will completely change.

He is Yiyi's most trusted servant, and his words and deeds outside are what Yiyi means. Yiyi was originally going to go after weighing the pros and cons, and decided to go to his brother to show that he had put aside his past position, to give Wanning a clean slate, and also to counter all kinds of unnecessary troubles brought to Wanning by the Lanfu birthday banquet some time ago. At least to clarify in front of her husband. At least Li Yan did so, but it turned into a provocation.

At this moment, as Li Yan and the people behind him expected, a suspicious scene was staged in Aoki Garden. A few maids from the Jade Gate who were waiting in Aoki Garden, and some of them began to talk behind their backs. And the atmosphere between the masters is indeed weird. A prince today actually kept the teacup of a maid who had disappeared many years ago, and he had polished it himself, which seemed to anyone to think that there was ambiguity in this relationship. Maybe the six princes really moved their hearts back then, but Wan Ning has always regarded him as a close friend in the palace, a true confidant in the dark court full of trickery. She knew very well that even if he was not the crown prince, he would have his own royal concubine, and she was just a palace maid, so she had always been sensible and good at dealing with the six princes and other princes back then. But when the former prince attacked her, the sixth prince did risk his life to bump into the former prince to protect her. She had always thought of that as friendship.

The sixth prince was young at the time, and he only had the favor of his grandmother in the palace, and he did not really cultivate his own power, so he was very weak in the palace. She was ordered by the Queen Mother to accompany the study, and of course she also had the mission of protecting the little prince from being plotted. In a sense, they are allies, close friends and confidants who have fought together. These Lian'er never told Xinjie in detail about her life before going to Tangmen, but when he first met her, Xinjie was suspicious of her identity and told him briefly, and later mentioned it again when he returned to Beijing with him and needed to meet Yiyi, but it was not detailed. The crown prince has been sending people to look for Wan Ning all year round, because he has been sending people since Wan Ning left the palace, and Yiyi has never assigned this task to him. He didn't know that he had been busy with many big things all year round, and he really didn't care about these details. I vaguely knew something, and I thought it was someone who had nothing to do with me, and I didn't care.

He knew that she came from the palace, knew that the former prince wanted to forcibly possess her and was forced to leave the house, and went to the Tang Gate after the death of fraud, but he never told him that the current prince was a confidant and friend, even after returning to the capital to meet Yiyi, Yiyi and her did not have a special or very close relationship. After they got together, there were many other endless topics, and he never asked her the details of her relationship with the prince. When his wife celebrated her birthday, the prince was far away in Jiangcheng, and asked people to give her a birthday gift, although she seemed to be too concerned, but at that time, she was worried about Ah Yilan and didn't pay attention to it. Now that I think about it, I have to think that there must be an intimacy between the prince and his wife that he does not understand.

It is no wonder that when he was in Jiangnan, he received a letter saying that the Lan family was plotting to frame Wan Ning. At that time, he thought that the Lan family was targeting him, because he didn't like the Tang family's power to be too large around the prince, but now that he thinks about it, maybe there is another point here that the queen may be dissatisfied with the privacy in the prince's heart.

On the day of Yuehuaxuan's birthday with Xinye, the prince first saw Ning'er who followed Xinjie back to Beijing, although his heart was turbulent, but the surface was quite calm, only Xinye saw the prince's excited eyes when he saw Lian'er for the first time. Their apparent calm meeting made Xinjie believe that even if there was something between the prince and Lian'er, they had already let go. She didn't want to explain anything to her husband specifically, because it was hard to explain after all. They were so close to each other that she didn't want any unpleasant things to come from the past. At the beginning of her return, the crown prince didn't have any special expression, why did he give her these things in this situation? She never imagined that he would keep this cup for so many years and bring it to her and her husband at this moment.

Men are also jealous, she didn't dare to look at her husband, just looked at the cup, and thanked Li Yan mechanically. But she could already clearly feel the doubt and intense jealousy in his eyes. After Li Yan left, her husband simply said, "Let's go back to the room first." Then he walked over and took the box of bamboo cups in one hand, and walked in with the other hand on his wife's waist. She didn't say anything all the way, and she occasionally looked up at him, and his face was so gloomy. When he got to the bedroom, he mechanically let go of his wife, put the bamboo cup on the table, and then stood by the window with his hands on his chest without saying a word.

She walked over and snuggled up to him from the side, calling him softly, "Applejack, please trust me, the prince and I are really just friends. He didn't speak, but after a while he suddenly turned around her with one hand and put one hand around her tightly, and lifted her face with the other, and looked at her for a long time, and there were countless changes in his eyes, mixed with anger, doubt, but more pain, and even a faint tear. That look of deep pain was the biggest killer for her, and since she had known him, she didn't want to see him in pain, and wanted to do everything she could to make him happy. And this time the cause of the pain was actually her, which made her feel suffocated and helpless.

"If I don't come back, who will be your antidote?"

"What did you say?"

"Who?"

She was speechless, tears pouring out of her eyes, and her heart was torn apart. He suddenly lowered his head, kissed her face, her tears, her lips, and hugged her tightly, and she was there because of the pain in her heart. He seemed to realize her pain, and began to whisper, "You promised me that you will always be my wife." ”

She remained silent.

"You know, I don't care what you have in the past with the prince, even before I completely owned you, I used to think that I might not be your first man, I don't care, because after all, that was in the past, I used to believe that my Lian'er is mine since I met and knew each other. As soon as I found out what had happened to you, I set off for my own time, but along the way, I became more and more confused. I know that this matter is a letter sent back by Yuling, but why is there no letter from you, I have been waiting all the way, waiting for the messenger you sent, until I met Xiao Jiu on the road, and he said that he and his eldest brother really couldn't stand your pain, so he ran to Jiangnan to find me, and didn't mention that you sent someone to find me. Something so big, why didn't you tell me, why didn't you let me come back? Why should someone else notify me of this kind of thing, not your messenger, how I want Xiao Jiu to tell me that it was you who asked him to come to me. He held up that face again and asked, "Why?" ”

"Didn't they all report to you? You're sure you'll know about it, I'll call you back alone, does it make a difference? If you have a lotus in your heart, no matter how you know it, you should come back, and if you can't help yourself, will it be useful for me to send a messenger again? Does your grandfather allow it? At the mention of his grandfather, he touched it, and then quickly hugged her tighter.

"No matter what happens, you're my wife. It's just that there are some things I need some time for. But I beg you to promise me, please, promise me, don't leave me. In fact, she didn't want to lose him. She also stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly, but she didn't know how long she could have him like this. Enjoy your time with him.

So, on that afternoon full of flowers, they held hands and got into the carriage to the prince's mansion under the gaze of the people.

But after getting in the car, he just quietly hugged her to look at the street scene or held her green silk hanging on his chest with his fingers. Regarding the prince's affairs, although he said just now that he didn't mind, he actually minded a lot. In the past, the life in the palace was almost bleak, for her at that time, not much sunshine and free air came from the friendship of the six princes and the love of the old queen mother, she didn't want to think about it, but the question brought by that cup made her have to think why?

Until she meets the prince and knows his purpose, she no longer wants to uncover the past. But she knew that if she didn't reveal the past to her husband, he would never get over it. But how to unveil it, she didn't want to make a rash decision until she saw that the prince knew his intentions. But no matter what, she knew that her heart had never been left in the palace people, and the only thing that could affect her was the man beside her, her husband. She didn't care what her future would hold, she just hoped that the past would not be dangerous to him. If it was true that she was in danger for him because she stayed with him, she would rather leave alone. But if he really leaves, he won't be left with trouble? She wasn't sure. The most uncertain thing in this world is the human heart, even if that person used to be a partner who helped her and experienced many years of ups and downs, so she leaned on him quietly, speechless all the way.
