Chapter 134: Night Talk
Chapter 134 Night Talk
Yongning was upset, and he couldn't calm down, and the thoughts that he had been thinking about for a long time before and after thinking about it couldn't be cared about at all. She still used the invisibility spell, and threw the note written early in the morning directly to the female officer who had to be used by Princess Gaoyang's side, and after seeing the female official go to Princess Gaoyang's side with an anxious face, she also lost the patience to continue watching, and directly phantom back to the room of the Fuqiuji Inn.
Princess Jinyang was still asleep, and Yongning did not turn on the lamp, so she sat down on a stool by the window in darkness. The wind outside the window was blowing more and more violently, and I could vaguely feel the fine snowflakes falling. Although there is a carbon basin in the room, it still makes people chill. Yongning almost subconsciously added another layer of warmth spell to herself, and then also threw one on Princess Jinyang's body, but she instinctively still felt cold, but this coldness came from the heart......
In her mind, she kept playing the scenes in the Luoyang Palace. Pulling the curtain against the wind, one light at a time, and socializing in groups...... Even the figure and speech of Li Zhi's residence, her tears fell "brush-" down.
Yongning gently touched his moist cheeks with his fingers, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. She breathed deeply and shallowly, slowly calming her heart, and the tears gradually stopped. When she let out a long breath again, she suddenly heard Princess Jinyang on the bed, and asked sleepily, "Yongning, what's wrong with you?" Why don't you sleep yet? ”
Yongning hurriedly wiped the tears on his face with his sleeves, and then said in a slightly nasal voice: "I'll go to sleep...... Your Highness wants to drink water? ”
"Well, I'm thirsty......" Princess Jinyang lazily propped herself up, rubbed her eyes, yawned, and said, "Why don't you light the lamp?" What are you doing sitting there alone? ”
"No, it's nothing...... the darkness covered Yongning's somewhat flustered eyes, she walked to the table and lit the lamp with flint, then turned sideways to block Princess Jinyang's gaze, heated the tea soup that was already slightly cold again, and then poured a cup and handed it to Princess Jinyang.
Princess Jinyang took the teacup but didn't rush to drink tea, looked at Yongning with some hesitation, and asked cautiously, "You, crying?" ”
Yongning is not a crying person, he is usually very careful, he easily refuses to say what is in his heart, and he has not met for several years, no matter how good a friend is, he will inevitably have a sense of alienation, Princess Jinyang really doesn't know how to inquire about Yongning's heart.
"I'm a little sad in my heart, but it's nothing, it's just a little homesick...... Yongning sniffed, sat on the couch, showed a wry smile, and said: "Staying in Luoyang these days, I found that my father is a lot older, and I haven't been back to Chang'an all these years, and I don't know what my mother is like now...... I heard that the eldest brother and the second brother have added children in the past few years, and I haven't been able to take a look, I'm afraid that when I go back to Chang'an, these nephews and nieces won't know who I am......"
Princess Jinyang listened to Yongning's words, and her heart felt uncomfortable. She put the teacup on the edge of the couch, sat up straight, leaned on the pillow behind her, then held Yongning's hand, and said, "As soon as I saw you, I only cried, and I didn't ask you how you have been doing all these years...... You said you went to Luoyang, but did you see Brother Jiu? ”
Hearing Princess Jinyang mention Li Zhi, Yongning's tears that she had just endured couldn't help but flow down again, she hurriedly reached out to wipe them, but the tears couldn't be wiped clean. Princess Jinyang's eyes, which were originally a little dry, also moistened again: "Yongning, Brother Jiu is very worried about you...... In the past few years, there have been many people in his house, and he can treat everyone equally, although he now has children and daughters, but the identity of his biological mother is lower than the other...... Whether it is the concubine Wang or the side concubine Sun Jing, they have not been able to give birth to a boy and a girl...... Sometimes looking at Brother Jiu, I can't help but feel distressed, he completely treats the Jin Wangfu as a government to deal with, I didn't understand it before, watching him spoil this for a while, and spoil that for a while, I feel that he is ...... I felt that he had changed his mind, and I didn't bother to pay attention to him in those days, but later, one day, I saw him sitting alone on the edge of the Taiye Pool, with only one back, and it was so sad that people couldn't help but want to cry when they saw it......"
Yongning listened quietly to Princess Jinyang's narration, and had already given up wiping her tears, and tears flowed wantonly. She has always believed that Li Zhi likes her, but she can't be sure how long this liking can last, let alone know, just for this liking, she puts herself in a group of women, competing for the time he spends a few days a month together, whether she can do it......
She didn't dare to think about it, if one day, there would be a day when she would be tired, she would be tired, and at that time, would she still have a way back?
Yongning has never been a brave person, she doesn't dare to face love, and she is even more afraid that she won't be able to control her heart......
Princess Jinyang gave up the position beside her, pulled Yongning to lie down in the quilt together, leaned her head on Yongning's shoulder, and whispered: "Yongning, since you went to Luoyang this time, you must have also seen Brother Jiu, right?" Otherwise you wouldn't be crying like this...... So why don't you stay? Every time my father mentions you, he has a look of regret, he will definitely not stop him, is it the prime minister? ”
Yongning took a deep breath and said, "Now is not the time for me to stay...... I'm also His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and it always seems that I'm a little bit behind......"
Princess Jinyang sighed softly and said, "I always don't understand these things...... It's just Yongning, don't stay too far away, don't always have no news, and don't let Brother Jiu wait too long...... You don't know, every time you send something back to Fang's house, the ninth brother stares at the seventeenth sister with a blank stare at it, no matter what you bring back, or letters, poems and paintings, he always has to take a copy back to feel at ease...... In the study of his palace residence, all your things are hidden in a box by him, and when he is in a good mood, or when he is bad, he likes to turn those things out and look at them......"
Yongning lowered her head and smiled bitterly, she really regretted it at this time, maybe she shouldn't have prepared those ambiguous poems, calligraphy and paintings to send back to Chang'an, if she could really make Li Zhi lose her thoughts, she was afraid that she would be able to rise up with the idea of a break. It's just that it's a little late to think about it now......
"Yongning, you don't know, Brother Jiu has become almost unrecognizable to me over the years, he ......" Princess Jinyang's voice carried some anxiety, and said: "He is smooth and doesn't talk about things, the ruthlessness in private is terrifying, if it weren't for the occasional news from you, he would always show the same appearance as before, I'm afraid I wouldn't dare to get close to him anymore......"
"He, finally learned to grow up......" Yongning's tone carried a trace of emotion, although Li Zhi was quite good at Taoguang and obscure in the past, but many times his thoughts and practices were very childish and unruly, and now from the words of Princess Jinyang, it is not difficult to hear Li Zhi's growth.
"Why are we going to grow up?" Princess Jinyang's mood is extremely low, and if she hadn't grown up, she would have been much happier......
"There's no way we can stop the flow of time, we just learn to grow up on our own...... It will be very sad to refuse to grow up...... "Yongning also hopes not to grow up, but there is no possibility that this hope will be realized. She gently patted Princess Jinyang's back and said, "It's not early, go to sleep, I'm going to hurry tomorrow......"
"Hmm" Princess Jinyang didn't let go of Yongning's hand even though she lay down to sleep.
The next day, Yongning and Princess Jinyang got up late, and they freshened up and went out, only to find that the ground had been covered with a thick layer of snow, and the dense snowflakes in the sky were still falling constantly, and it seemed that they couldn't stop for a while.
Sun Simiao had already ordered breakfast downstairs, and when he saw Princess Jinyang and Yongning coming down, he beckoned the two of them to come over for dinner. Yongning and Princess Jinyang were a little absent-minded, they didn't have a bite to eat, and Sun Simiao didn't urge, anyway, seeing that the weather was not easy to start, they had to stay for another day or two, not to mention waiting for the snow to melt, and they had to wait for the snow to stop before they could continue on the road.
It may be that there is a relationship with Yongning, and Princess Jinyang's daily threatening words to Sun Simiao have been omitted today, which makes Sun Simiao feel a lot more comfortable, and even seriously thinks about the possibility of throwing Princess Jinyang to Yongning in his heart......
The owner of the inn is in a very good mood, and in such weather, several guests in the store have said that they want to stay for another day and wait for the snow to stop before leaving. He was busy coming and going all morning, full of energy.
Yongning only ate a little bit before putting down his chopsticks, and then kept looking out the door with a bowl of hot soup. She pondered that her note should not be useless, it is said that the person who came to find Princess Jinyang did not come last night, and he will arrive this morning...... But why hasn't there been any movement at this point?
"Where are we going next?" Princess Jinyang's appetite today is not good, and she learned from Yongning to hold a bowl of soup, but she didn't drink a sip.
Yongning heard Princess Jinyang's question, and couldn't help but look at Sun Simiao, this is the old gentleman, and she is naturally not easy to come up with ideas. Who knew that Sun Simiao just looked at Yongning and smiled bitterly, without saying a word. Yongning suddenly understood, he was afraid that he would take Princess Jinyang all the way, and he didn't go to the road where Sun Simiao intended to collect medicine, and this old gentleman was afraid that he was coming to Luoyang Palace at all......
Princess Jinyang could also understand Sun Simiao's thoughts a little, pouted at him, then looked at Yongning again, and asked, "What about you?" Where are you going? Would you like to bring me along? Although she used a question, it was obvious that she would not accept opinions other than "agree".
Yongning shook his head helplessly and said, "I originally planned to go to Liaodong......"
"Liaodong?" Sun Simiao frowned and said, "Your Majesty is preparing for the Eastern Crusade, where is it good to go there?" ”
"Didn't Uncle Sun plan to go over and have a look?" Yongning pretended to have a curious expression on his face and said, "On the battlefield, the casualties must be heavy, if you are a miracle doctor, I am afraid that a few fewer people will die, right?" ”
Sun Simiao looked at Yongning, then lowered his head and was silent.
