Chapter 62: Don't ask about the way forward, please wait for me
said that he didn't know what happened after that, but some people said that after that night, Xiahou Jingyuan was like ten years old.
Three years later, he gave up his seat to the next prince and committed suicide by poisoning...... didn't leave any last words, only a bunch of hair tied by a red rope in his hand and a poem left on the table: Fenghua life, decide this stroke, don't ask the way forward, please wait for me.
She slowly opened her eyes, and found that everything around her was so strange and a little familiar, and then looked at the person next to the bed, and after a while, she figured out the reality.
"You can really sleep." Zhong Qing put the poured tea in front of her, and when she hesitated not to take it, he smiled and said: "This is ordinary tea, you have already drunk the antidote, what are you afraid of?" β
Lin Peijiu took it and put it in his hand.
"Why, don't you say something nice thank you thank me? You've wasted a piece of brocade dispersion on me. Seeing that she still didn't speak, Zhong Qing almost thought she was dumb, and pursed her eyebrows, "Forget it, there is no heart and no lungs!" β
"Should I thank you?" Lin Peijiu held the cup in his hand and asked coldly.
"What do you mean?"
"Use me as a primer, you're glad to fool me like this."
Zhong Qing stared at her with slightly squinted eyes: "You make it clear." β
"If you don't want to help me, you can let me be a little ghost who only has three days of consciousness. Sealed my memories, let me unseal them after falling in love with someone else, put me in a dilemma, and I couldn't help but die, is this what you call me to be grateful to you? It turns out that you people in the underworld are so fond of playing with others. β
Zhong Qing raised his head and smiled, "I didn't expect you to have a high level of understanding, but I've already done this, how should you choose." Zhong Qing looked at her expression and smiled: "A new love, an old love, it's really a good show." Why don't you just follow him, after all, it was all a matter of the previous life, huh? β
"Where is he?"
"What?" Zhong Qing asked as if he didn't hear clearly, and then smiled, "Why, I still can't let go of the one in my previous life, if you want me to say, you ......"
"Where is he?" She asked again.
Zhong Qing was stunned, "Do you really want to know?" β
"What are the conditions?"
"Haha, what do you think I, a person who doesn't belong to the world, can look up to you?"
Lin Peijiu didn't go to see her.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you, Murong Tian, His Royal Highness of the Southern Dynasty today."
...... "Murong Tian? "She's never even heard of it.
"Murong Tian has no desires and desires all his life, he lives in Shangling City all the year round, and he is even more silent about the affairs of the court, and he stays out of the matter, which is not at all different from his previous life." Zhong Qing glanced at her and said with a smile: "It's not that you can't see him at all, it's the emperor's birthday banquet in a few days, and when the time comes, let alone him, no civil and military officials are allowed to come in person." β
Zhong Qing touched her face: "What if you see him, he doesn't remember you." Then, Zhong Qing smiled playfully.
After she went back, she realized that she had really been away for a day and a night, and they told her that if she didn't come back, Pei Hengfei would search the whole city.
Hearing this, inexplicably, she felt very sad, she didn't know how to face him, left? But her heart told him that she didn't want to, and she was even a little shocked that she was actually in love with two people at the same time! ......
But after thinking about it, it seems that there is nothing to worry about, after all, it was all a matter of the previous life, and besides, he was really good to her.
When Pei Heng saw her, he almost hugged her and couldn't breathe.
Lin Peijiu pushed him, but found that he was hugging him very tightly, so he gave up, "Pei Heng, I'm fine." β
"Where have you been?" His low voice lingered in her ears, "Do you know how worried I am? β
Lin Peijiu's eyes were a little ruddy, "I'...... Go out, get lost, don't worry, didn't I come back safely? β
Pei Heng still didn't mean to let go of her, and hugged her tightly, "Tell me where you go in the future, do you know?" β
She nodded and pushed him away into the house, "I'm tired and want to sleep." You haven't had a break these days, so go back and rest. She had just walked a few steps, but he hugged her from behind, and said in a coquettish tone: "I'm not at ease, I want to sleep with you." β
She couldn't resist him, so she had to agree.
In his arms, she fell asleep after a while, obviously she had just slept for a day and a night, why was she still so tired, maybe she was tired.
Lin Peijiu closed his eyes and called him: "Pei Heng." β
He snorted.
"It's the emperor's birthday banquet in a few days, can you take me with you?"
"Okay." He replied, then smiled, "In what capacity?" β
Before he could say anything, she blurted out, "Maid." β
Pei Heng was shocked from the bottom of his heart......
Lin Peijiu obviously felt his disfigurement, and immediately explained: "I think this will save a lot of trouble." β
"I didn't say no,......" he replied, lifting her face slightly, leaning over to kiss it.
Seeing the situation, Lin Peijiu arched into his arms, and quietly avoided the kiss.
Pei Heng's hand was stunned in mid-air, and he touched her hair instead.
Maybe some people can't see it, see it once, and be sad once, she thinks Xiahou Jingyuan is.
The emperor's birthday banquet is a major event celebrated by the whole world, but it is not something that ordinary people can attend. In the Zhaoyang Palace, most of them are high-ranking officials and nobles who she has had a relationship with but has shallow friendships, and there are two faces she has never seen before, one is next to Wen Ruoying, looking empty-eyed, presumably it is another messenger Wen Ting. The other sat in the back corner, wearing a blue waist-length wide-sleeved court dress, sitting there quietly drinking tea from beginning to end, although it was far away, his facial features could be seen very clearly, and the angular jawline was even more masculine, presumably Murong Tian.
The song and dance of Jin Xian was obviously very unsuitable for him, and he did not even look at it from beginning to end, and the maid next to him seemed to know his thoughts very well, ran past the emperor's side, leaned over and said a word, and helped him out of his seat...... She wondered if he was Xiahou Jingyuan in his previous life, and he was so calm and light-hearted.
Suddenly, she felt a pain in her thigh, turned her head and met Pei Heng's gaze, he raised the wine glass in his hand, and shouted to her completely into the role: "What are you doing in a daze?" It's not enough to get full. β
When Lin Peijiu heard this, he quickly knelt down and poured him wine, and his voice sounded in his ears: "His name is Murong Tian, and he is His Royal Highness of the Southern Dynasty, do you know?" β
She shook her head, "It's just that I've never seen it before, so I think it's strange." β
"He has a wife." Pei Heng said this coldly.
She felt a chill in her heart, and when she thought about it carefully, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it, yes, he didn't remember her, and he should marry a wife and have children. But himself, didn't he hate him to the bone before he died?
She found that time can really heal the scars, really polish away hatred, and now after so many years, she seems to have forgotten why she hated him, and the rest of her mind seems to be only nostalgia.
Just like her in her previous life, if love was really so easily covered by hate, how could she be reluctant to kill him.
"Why are you telling me this?"
Pei Heng noticed her expression, and wrapped one hand around her waist, which really startled Lin Peijiu, "There are so many people, what are you doing?" As she spoke, she tugged at her hand to remove his hand.
"Tired or not, go out and breathe."
She stopped struggling, and then cautiously asked, "Is that okay?" β
"Why not." He pulled her up and went to the emperor, "The saint has a long life, Wei Chen feels a little unwell, and I hope that the saint will approve Wei Chen to go out to breathe." β
The Emperor waved his hand and motioned for them to go out.
Lin Peijiu obediently followed him until he left the palace, "Where do you want to go?" β
Suddenly, she saw Murong Tian in the distance, who was sitting alone in the pavilion drinking tea, and couldn't help but want to find a little shadow of Xiahou Jingyuan in him, but she found that there was no at all, could it be that in the past life and this life, there was really no involvement at all? As she looked out, his gaze suddenly met hers, and she hurriedly looked away.
Pei Heng also saw Murong Tian, took Lin Peijiu's hand and walked over.
As soon as they met, it was a clichΓ© greeting, "I really haven't seen His Highness for a long time, I'm afraid that only the birthday banquet of the Holy One can invite you back." β
Murong Tian smiled and motioned for them to sit down, "There are a lot of things going to the tomb, and I really can't pull away." β
"Yes, His Royal Highness is a busy man, and Pei Mou made a mistake." He looked around Murong Tian and asked, "Why don't you see the princess?" β
"She's pregnant, so it's not convenient for her to travel long distances."
"Congratulations to Your Highness, but this is Your Highness's fault, the matter of spreading branches for the royal family should be a happy event, and Your Highness is still hiding it."
"The doctor said that the fetus is unstable, and this king does not want to disappoint the royal family."
Pei Heng nodded, "What His Highness said is extremely true. He glanced at Lin Peijiu along Murong Tian's line of sight, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter, Your Highness knows her?" β
Murong Tian shook his head gently, "I don't know, I'm just curious." He looked up at Pei Heng, "For so many years, I haven't seen a woman serving you by your side, I think it's rare." β
Pei Heng smiled, "Your Highness is really joking, I'm not Yanagi Hui, and I will have desires." β
Murong Tian was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Then the king is waiting for the good news of the two......
Hearing this, Lin Peijiu hurriedly shook her head, "Your Highness misunderstood, the slave maid is just an adult's maidservant, not a ......."
Subsequently, Pei Heng was called back by Murong Li, and she sat in the pavilion with Murong Tian by herself. She never thought of sitting with him again, making small talk like she did now. In her memory, what impressed her the most was the last sentence she heard before she died: I love you. Although he hurt her so much in his previous life, just that sentence seemed to trump all explanations.
"Is it cold?"
She sighed, only to find that her whole body was shaking, she smiled and was about to say that it was not cold, when she saw him take off his cloak and drape it on her body, "If you are infected with typhoid fever, this king has no way to explain to Master Pei." β
