Chapter 94 (2nd Watch)
The night sky is quiet, the East Palace is quiet, and the entire Southern Chu Imperial City is very quiet.
In the dead of night, I could vaguely see the lights on in several mansions, and the owl standing on a branch, staring at the two people on the roof, staring at the two people on the roof.
Hua Yan whispered, "Let's go, let's go back to the house!" You're going to have to go to the morning court tomorrow morning. ”
Yun Chi shook his head, "Tomorrow will be exempt." ”
Hua Yan was stunned, "Why?" ”
Yun Chi said softly, "Princess Anyang heard that Shuli was going to the Sichuan River Valley to control the water, so she had to follow, Shuli couldn't persuade her, so she asked me to help him think of a way to come to the house today." The area around the river valley is hard, if the princess goes, how can she stand it with her body? After going, it was indispensable to ask Shuli to devote more attention to taking care of her, not to mention, he went to the Sichuan River Valley to treat water, and it was not only water that was treated. The things that were concealed five years ago are bound to be revisited and thoroughly investigated, and it is bound to hurt anyone's muscles and bones, and some people will not be able to sit still, and he has to deal with a lot of things. ”
Hua Yan's eyes moved, and suddenly he said in his heart, "The last time you and Shuli formulated a plan, you hid it from Princess Anyang, and the princess has a lot of prejudices against you, it seems that she found a place after you returned to Beijing to see you, and you can't help much this time, right?" Before you could speak, the princess flatly refused. An Shuli should also be able to think that the person he came to find was me, right? Want my help? ”
Yun Chi stretched out his hand and nodded her eyebrows, sighing, "So smart." ”
Hua Yan smiled, "Early tomorrow morning, I will go to Anyang Mansion with you, women and women are the most talkative, maybe I can persuade the princess not to follow." ”
Yun Chi looked at her, "What method is used?" ”
Hua Yan said with a smile, "Think about it tomorrow, I don't have much contact with the princess, and I only hear rumors about her, and I don't know much about her. ”
Yun Chi nodded, looked at her and asked, "You will leave the house tomorrow, you will be tired, can your body stand it?" ”
Hua Yan chuckled, "I can stand it, although I don't have much strength now, but if I rest for half the night, it will be much better tomorrow." ”
Yun Chi bowed his head and stopped talking.
Hua Yan looked up at the stars for a while, and spoke, "Let's go, let's go back to the house!" Rest early. ”
Yun Chi got off the roof with Hua Yan in his arms and entered the house.
Hua Yan was tired, and not long after lying on the bed, she fell asleep deeply.
Yun Chi was not sleepy, looking at Hua Yan sideways, he asked her about hysteria, but she didn't tell him after all. Instead, he mentions repentance.
She obviously knew his intentions, and she had to do it, but let her repent, it can be seen that her life is at stake, and I am afraid that even she feels hopeless and powerless.
What is the indissoluble knot between her and the forbidden land of the palace?
With that thought, he got out of bed again, dressed himself, and went out of the room again.
When Xiao Zhongzi heard the movement, he was just about to fall asleep, but he hurriedly got up again in a daze, and when he saw Yun Chi going out of the room and walking out, he immediately hurried out, and asked in surprise, "Your Highness, where are you going?" Why don't you shout minions? ”
Yun Chi said without looking back, "This palace goes to the library pavilion, you don't have to follow, go back and rest." ”
Xiao Zhongzi wondered, "Your Highness, it's so late, why did you remember to go to the Library Pavilion?" ”
Yun Chi didn't speak.
Xiao Zhongzi shrunk his neck and whispered, "The slave is not sleepy or tired, come with you, you read, the slave can also serve you tea, if you don't want the slave to disturb, the slave will rest in the library pavilion." ”
Yun Chi said "um", and he agreed.
The two came to the library pavilion, Xiao Zhongzi slapped the lamp in front of his head, and the lights in the library suddenly brightened.
Yun Chi purposefully went straight to the history of the last dynasty of the previous dynasty and the history of the founding of Southern Chu, and the first thing he took was "The History of Taizu".
Xiao Zhongzi brought Yun Chi a cup of tea, secretly thinking that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been familiar with history books since he was a child, why didn't he sleep with the princess in the middle of the night now, and came to the library to read the history books again?
Naturally, he didn't dare to ask, so he secretly yawned and went to a corner not far away to squat and rest.
Hua Yan slept very soundly, and an hour later, she somehow suddenly opened her eyes, and found that Yun Chi was no longer around, she immediately reached out and touched it, the futon on her side was cold, she hurriedly got off the ground, held the lamp, and shouted to the outside, "Cai Qing." ”
Cai Qing knew that Yun was late to go out, so she kept waking up with a shock, and when she heard Hua Yan calling her, she immediately put on her clothes and quickly came to the door, "Princess, you call the slave?" Are you thirsty and want to drink water? ”
Hua Yan shook her head and asked Cai Qing, "What about His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”
Cai Qing immediately said, "After you fell asleep, His Highness seems to have gone to the Library Pavilion. ”
Hua Yan was stunned and blurted out, "Did something happen?" Why did he not sleep most of the night and ran to the library? ”
Cai Qing shook her head.
Hua Yan thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered that Yun Chi was about to check the history books, and he asked her about hysteria, but she didn't say it, with his cleverness, he didn't want to force her, so he naturally went to check it himself.
He was already busy with things, and he was worried about her affairs, so how could he stand it without rest all night?
She stood in the room for a moment, then turned back and got her clothes to put on.
Cai Qing immediately asked, "Are you going to the Library Pavilion to find His Highness?" ”
Hua Yan nodded.
Cai Qing hurriedly said, "It's cold at night, don't go, the library pavilion is not too close, the slave maid went to call His Highness back." ”
Hua Yan stopped her, "I'd better go by myself." ”
Seeing that Huayan had made up her mind, Cai Qing hurriedly found a cloak, and after Huayan was properly dressed, she draped it for her, lifted the lamp, and accompanied her out of the Phoenix West Garden.
Rather than let him delay the rest time to check, then it is better to tell him, of course, except for the soul spell.
The road was silent, there were guards patrolling the East Palace, and when they saw Huayan and Cai Qing, they all saluted, "Princess." ”
Hua Yan smiled and bowed his head.
When I came to the library pavilion, I saw that the lights were bright, and the guards who guarded them all saluted, "Princess! ”
The movement of Hua Yan naturally alarmed Yun Chi, he glanced out, quickly put down the scroll, got up and rushed out of the door of the study, saw Hua Yan's thin figure, and immediately frowned and asked, "You didn't sleep well, why did you find it?" ”
As he spoke, he took her hand.
Even if Hua Yan is wearing a cloak, her fingertips are still cool, and she has a bit of night coolness around her body. She looked up at Yun Chi with a slight tilt of face, and said softly, "If it takes your energy to check, why don't I tell you." ”
Yun Chi pursed the corners of his mouth and looked into her eyes, "If you don't want to say it to me, I'll ......"
Hua Yan reached out and pressed the corners of his lips with two fingers, blocked the words behind him, and shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I don't know how to talk to you, I think about it, and I don't know how to speak, I'm afraid that if you listen, it will add more weight." ”
Yun Chi looked at Hua Yan, reached out to take her hand, and said in a dumb voice, "Hua Yan, I'm not forcing you, okay, I won't read anymore, don't check, let's go back to the room, you're not well, let's go back to rest." ”
Hua Yan stood still, "Just today!" I'm telling you. ”
Yun Chi shook his head and pulled her back.
Hua Yan stood still, "Yun Chi, I'll tell you." ”
Yun Chi looked at her, saw her gritting her teeth, made up her mind, her eyes were firm, he reached out to hug her, and whispered, "Tomorrow, tomorrow is good?" Let's go back and rest first, it's cold in the middle of the night, and your body can't stand it. ”
Hua Yan nodded, as good as a stream, "It's okay, then tomorrow." ”
Back in Xiyuan, it was already the eve of dawn, Yun Chi hugged Huayan and lay on the bed, stretched out his hand and patted her, "Sleep." ”
Hua Yan nodded, nestled in his arms, closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while.
Yun Chi looked at the sleeping person in his arms, and thought that he didn't find anything he wanted to know from the "Records of Taizu History", but he saw a sentence from a book of wild histories.
"After Empress Shujing drank poisonous wine, Emperor Taizu was heartbroken, looking for an onmyoji all over the world, resurrecting Empress Shujing, and finally in vain, icing Empress Shujing in the ice coffin, vacant six palaces, no concubines and no concubines in her life, even the palace maids and maids were not fortunate to be alone, and they had no children for life. After his death, he did not enter the imperial mausoleum, and his ashes were placed in the ice coffin of Empress Shujing. ”
He thought of the forbidden place of the palace, and was given a death order by Taizu, and future generations could not set foot in the place, presumably, it was because Taizu didn't want anyone to disturb him and Empress Shujing!
And Hua Yan, hearing this, vomited blood and fainted.
A faint thought in his mind gradually became clear, and Ben's blood color faded again.
The person in her arms, she is so light, so thin, so weak and unbearable.
If it was as he guessed, then what kind of weight should be on her heart? How much is it carrying?
He gently raised his hand and stroked her face, his fingertips brushing over it, and his heart was painful and soft.
Hua Yan reached out and pressed his hand, muttering lowly, "Yun Chi, sleep!" The words fell, and he opened his eyes slightly with difficulty, "Are you unable to sleep?" ”
Yun Chi saw that she was awakened, and said softly, "Sleep, let's sleep." ”
Hua Yan let out an "um", held his hand and didn't let go, and fell asleep again.
Yun Chi looked at her for a moment, wrapped her hand with his backhand, hugged her body tightly, and fell asleep with his eyes closed.
