Yu Ruyan's heart ached, and her hand couldn't help but step forward to pick up his hand, but at the end, she gritted her teeth and stretched out her hand to the poured cup, straightened the cup, and silently walked to the door to open it.

"When we parted that day, His Highness had written a farewell letter with his own hands, and His Highness still - let's go!"

Hearing this, Mu Lingzhi's whole body was shocked, and his heart instantly fell into hell, unable to see half a ray of light, leaving only endless darkness, his eyes were dead and gray, and his whole body lost a trace of strength......

After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "You refuse to forgive me because that farewell letter is still ...... Or is it because I shot you with that arrow? ”

Yu Ruyan's heart was numb to pain, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Mu Lingzhi's desperate and gloomy face, let alone look at his dead eyes, she gritted her teeth and said coldly: "It's all!" ”

"When I obeyed my father's order to get married, I felt uncomfortable, scared, hesitant, and even panicked, but I still hoped that my husband, who I had never met, could give me a trace of love, I didn't ask him to favor me more, but at least ...... At least accept me, so that I can have a place in a strange Liang and a strange country, and I can accommodate it, so that I will not be abandoned by my father and the Qi country, and I will not even have a place to finally settle down......"

"I braved the scorching heat, thousands of miles from Daqi day and night to Daliang, when I left Daqi, no one saw me off, I originally thought, I thought of Daliang, I can see the team to welcome me...... For this reason, in the hot weather, I didn't dare to take off the heavy and stuffy phoenix crown and xia veil on my body in the hot weather, I was afraid of ...... I'm afraid that if I don't do a good job, I will make my husband unhappy, and I try my best to maintain the dignity of a princess of Heshuo, but ......"

"Along the way, I've imagined countless scenes of us meeting, and I've also thought about you, maybe you...... Maybe you will be cold to me and don't like me, but it doesn't matter, as long as you maintain a superficial politeness, at least I have the title of princess, and I guess I won't be in the palace and will not be like in the palace again...... No one will bully me again, but what I never dreamed of was that I would be greeted by a cold arrow......"

“…… That arrow came, all my wishes were sentenced to death, I didn't know what happened, I just thought I met a mountain bandit, in order to survive I had to take off the phoenix crown and flee with the married maids, however, I didn't expect that I was captured back to the barracks and became the most pitiful and pathetic military prostitute in the world......"

“…… It wasn't until I was sent to your tent and saw the dark iron longbow in the tent that I heard them call you Your Third Highness, that I realized that the person who shot my cold arrow was you, my husband who had traveled thousands of miles to marry......"

"I put aside all my dignity to seduce you, and I beg you to take me in and save me from being raped by thousands of soldiers...... When I escaped from Guyu Town, I wanted to leave you, but I was unwilling, I didn't want my life to be so miserable, useless, I wanted to try to save everything between us, but ......"

“…… However, after so many things in my life, I finally realized that in fact, from that arrow, the relationship between me and you has been cut off, and it will be unfortunate to be reluctant again. ”

"So, Your Highness, let's go, I've decided to put everything down and live my life again, please Your Highness - let it go!"

Mu Lingzhi's face was completely gray, and every word of Yu Ruyan pierced his heart and body like a fine needle, sealing all his thoughts, and even his breathing was stagnant. In the end, he didn't have the courage to say anything more, and after a long time, he dragged up his heavy body and walked to the door step by step, his whole body hurt so much that his throat was torn apart by life when he even opened his mouth.

Before leaving, he hoarsely said the last words with the last bit of strength -

"Right...... Sorry! ”

After Mu Lingzhi left, Yu Ruyan could no longer support falling to the ground, and she didn't even have the strength to get up. My eyes hurt so much that I couldn't open them, and my heart was broken, but I couldn't cry a single tear......

I don't know how long it took, the sky was dark, Brother An came back from the outside happily, I thought that when I came back, I would see the happy appearance of my master and His Royal Highness, but I didn't expect to sit by the door in a daze, his eyes were red and scary, his expression was like a puppet who had lost his soul, there was no trace of anger, and his whole body was also cold, which scared Brother An directly to cry.

"Princess, what's wrong with you? What about Your Highness? What's wrong? Brother An saw that Mu Lingzhi personally chased from Daliang to Qi State, and he liked it very much, because after following Yu Ruyan for so long, Brother An knew what she thought in her heart. Therefore, seeing Mu Lingzhi come in, I thought that the two must be happy and happy to reunite after a long absence, but then I didn't expect that the house was empty and the figure of the Third Highness was gone, and Yu Ruyan was even more depressed and sitting on the ground, looking at the situation, she was even more sad and sad than before.

Brother An thought that there must be something unpleasant between the two, but he didn't dare to ask again, for fear of arousing Yu Ruyan's sadness, so he had to help her sit up, and hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea to feed her, helped her rub her cold fingers, and deliberately diverted the topic: "Princess, it's night, the palace banquet in front is about to start, is the princess ready to ......?"

"Help me get my makeup!"

Looking at Yu Ruyan's red eyes, Brother An finally couldn't hold back his heartache and asked, "The princess is sad again?" Shouldn't the princess be happy to reunite with the Third Highness? ”

Looking at the rhombic bronze mirror in front of him in a daze, the bitterness in Yu Ruyan's heart was endless and endless, and her expression was extremely painful: "How can the broken mirror be reunited?" There are so many people and things between me and him, and the scars and chases in my heart are difficult to fill...... Don't mention everything about him and Daliang in front of me in the future, forget about it slowly. ”

Brother An's heart hurt, looking at Yu Ruyan who was full of grief, and wanted to persuade her, but he didn't know where to persuade her, so he had to whisper: "Slave and maid, take note, princess, or leave the palace after the banquet as originally planned?" ”

A trace of hesitation flashed on Yu Ruyan's face, her eyes were slightly reluctant, and she made up her mind after a moment, "...... Well...... Out of the palace! ”

The war in the previous dynasty did not alarm the ladies of the harem, so everyone, including the queen mother, did not know that the war ahead was tight, and they still attended the banquet gorgeously.

And the king of Qi had Mu Lingzhi's trump card, and his worries in his heart were also put down a lot, and he happily personally greeted Mu Lingzhi to a high position and sat in the position of him and the queen mother. And Jade Mingzhu happened to sit opposite him.

When she saw that Mu Lingzhi's position was even higher than Chen Yiqing's position, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, thinking to herself, how could a person from the lake who was inferior to the river deserve to appear at the banquet in the palace, and he was also added by his father's blue eyes, which really puzzled her.

However, at this moment, King Qi solemnly stood up and excitedly introduced Mu Lingzhi to everyone.

"This is the most brave and outstanding third prince of Daliang, and the most brave and wise general in the world, and he is also the concubine of my fifth princess, Yuruyan, who came all the way to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother, and is a rare guest in my Daqi."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes all looked at Mu Lingzhi, and at a glance, they only felt that the man in front of him had an abnormally handsome face, and his demeanor was a little indifferent, but the nobility of his body suppressed all the people in the hall, making everyone feel awe!

Thinking of the rumors about the three princes in the outside world, they couldn't help but admire it from the bottom of their hearts, and took the initiative to toast Mu Lingzhi.

Hearing this, Yu Mingzhu's whole body was shocked, and she looked at Mu Lingzhi opposite in disbelief, so shocked that the wine glass in her hand was unstable and spilled wine-

How is it possible, didn't General Chen say that he was only a person from the rivers and lakes? Moreover, there is still a broken sleeve relationship with General Chen!

How is it possible, how can he be the famous third prince of Liang, or the god of war admired by the world!

Yu Mingzhu couldn't help but look at Chen Yiqing, who was sitting next to Mu Lingzhi, and when she saw the narrowness in his eyes, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart-

It turned out that he didn't have a broken sleeve at all, he just made an excuse to refuse marriage!

With a breath blocked in his chest, Jade Mingzhu's pretty face suddenly turned red!

Thinking of Shangguan Xianzhong, who was now lying on the bed with no color, and then looking at the two handsome and outstanding young talents opposite, Yu Mingzhu was so angry that she almost vomited blood, her chest hurt so much, and she hated her silver teeth to pieces!

Why? Why can that slut have the most outstanding husband in the world, and he spent all his time choosing it, but in the end he ended up with a mute for the rest of his life!

God is so unfair, she is the eldest princess with a noble status, her appearance is more outstanding than that slut, why is her fate so different, how willing does this make her!

After drinking the wine in the cup in one go, and looking up at Mu Ling again, the more Yu Mingzhu looked at it, the more she fell in love with her, and a pair of big glass-like eyes couldn't be removed from his body.

Mu Lingzhi sat there quietly, without a trace of expression on his face, if it weren't for the previous promise to King Qi, what thoughts did he have to attend the banquet at this moment, all the words that Yu Ruyan said were ringing in his heart over and over again, and her shadow was also full in front of him, thinking of the so much suffering she had suffered for no reason because of herself, Mu Lingzhi felt that her heart was about to break.

But even if he was silent, the brilliance of his body was like the brightest silver light in the dark night sky, and the others were like tiny fireflies, lined with his light and no longer lustre.

Everyone stepped forward to toast Mu Lingzhi in turn, he was in pain in his heart, and he borrowed wine to burn his sorrows, so he did not refuse, and poured wine into his stomach one after another, and his face became more and more sad and gloomy.

Chen Yiqing, who was on the side, saw his appearance and knew the distress in his heart, but thinking that he was injured, he couldn't help sighing, stopped his wine and said, "What did you say to the fifth princess when you went to the Jinying Palace?" Why did you go with confidence but come back in disgrace, not alive at all, did you quarrel with the fifth princess? ”

After Mu Lingzhi came out of the Huijin Ying Palace, no matter how Chen Yiqing asked him, he didn't say a word, but Chen Yiqing saw the dead look very clearly, and couldn't help but worry: "Oh, the fifth master refuses to forgive you, I think, you have no obligation to help Qi Guo anymore!" ”

Mu Lingzhi's eyes glanced at him coldly, he didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, picked up the wine in front of him and poured it into his mouth.

Seeing that he drank so much, Chen Yiqing was about to snatch the wine glass in his hand, when he suddenly stretched out a delicate and white little hand, held the wine glass and handed it over, and a sweet voice slowly sounded: "Last time, His Royal Highness sacrificed his life outside the city gate to save me, Mingzhu was clumsy for a while, and he didn't recognize His Highness, it was really rude, and now I know that the benefactor is actually a distinguished guest from Daliang, Mingzhu has come to pay tribute to His Royal Highness, and I hope His Highness will appreciate his face!" ”

She already had a deep impression of Mu Lingzhi, if it weren't for Chen Yiqing telling her that he was a person from the rivers and lakes, how could she know that his identity was so noble, and her unwilling heart became restless again-

If he can take down this famous third prince and go to Daliang with him at that time, won't he be able to escape marrying the dumb man of Shangguan Xianzhong?

Seeing that Mu Lingzhi did not refuse everyone's toast, Yu Mingzhu Shi also picked up his wine glass and walked towards him.

She is beautiful and outstandingly dressed, and as her name suggests, she is the most dazzling pearl, dazzling and outstanding.

For a moment, Mu Lingzhi, who was three points drunk, almost regarded the woman in front of him as Yuruyan, but the incense from his nose made him inexplicably disgusted.

Yu Ruyan has never smoked such strong spices on her body, her body is always elegant and light, and there is a good smell of sweetness!

Gazing slightly, Mu Lingzhi recognized that the woman in front of him was the eldest princess Jade Mingzhu who gave Yu Ruyan a hard time everywhere, and couldn't help but feel cold, and he couldn't look at the Jade Mingzhu who smiled just right in front of him, and even turned his body to the side, clearly disgusted her, and didn't want to deal with her.

Tonight, no matter how low-grade the officials respected Mu Lingzhi, he drank it, but when it came to the noble eldest princess toasting him but encountering him treating him so coldly, Yu Mingzhu couldn't help but stay on the spot with a very embarrassed expression, her face turned from red to blue, and the wine glass sent to Mu Lingzhi stopped in mid-air awkwardly.

The rest of the crowd also watched with interest how the eldest prince would step down?

Seeing that the atmosphere was embarrassing, Chen Yiqing couldn't help but come out to play a round, picked up the wine glass and said to Yu Mingzhu: "Princess, Your Royal Highness has drunk a lot of wine tonight, and she must be a little drunk now, so this glass of wine will be drunk by His Royal Highness for His Royal Highness." ”

Yu Mingzhu looked at Mu Lingzhi's eyes from beginning to end, and she didn't even look at her seriously, and even ignored her for a toast, feeling aggrieved and unwilling, tears were about to come out.

Now that he saw Chen Yiqing playing a round game, he remembered what he had said to lie to himself before, and he couldn't help but be angry, and was about to put the anger on Mu Lingzhi's body on him, when he suddenly saw Mu Lingzhi's eyes on the side, and looked at the door in a daze.

Following Mu Lingzhi's gaze, Yu Mingzhu looked back, and it was Yu Ruyan who came!

I saw her wearing a plain dress and elegant makeup, walking in front of everyone without squinting, and walked straight to the Queen Mother to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday.

King Qi stepped forward affectionately for the first time, and greeted her with a few warm words, Yu Ruyan replied to him lightly, and before King Qi arranged for her to sit next to Mu Lingzhi, she had already turned around and retreated.

In previous years, every palace banquet, Yu Ruyan was not qualified to attend, because she was called an ominous person, whether it was a palace banquet or a large-scale occasion, she did not participate, this year she also went to Yanghua Palace as usual to kowtow to the Queen Mother and honestly went back to her own Jinying Palace to stay, but suddenly received the will of the King of Qi and asked her to come to the front hall to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday.

She didn't feel strange, this was just King Qi appreciating her face for Mu Lingzhi's sake, so after she gave the Queen Mother a birthday greeting, she retreated for a moment, unwilling to stay longer.

Many ministers saw the fifth princess for the first time, who rarely appeared in front of everyone, and when they suddenly saw her here today, they couldn't help but be surprised.

Not only because she looks similar to the eldest princess, but she is still a few points better than the eldest princess, but more importantly, among so many princesses, Yu Ruyan's temperament is the most indifferent and outstanding, which amazes everyone. Now because she has the most outstanding husband in the world, everyone can't help but think highly of her.

Seeing her come in, Mu Lingzhi's expression suddenly became hot and uneasy. Seeing her turn around and leave, under the urging of the wine, he didn't even want to get up and chase after her.

Yu Ruyan wanted to take Brother An out of the palace in disguise after returning to the palace, but what she didn't expect was that Mu Lingzhi followed her back to Jinying Palace, and stayed outside her bedroom and didn't leave, I don't know if she was really drunk or fake, she leaned on the threshold and closed her eyes.

Brother An said anxiously in the house: "Princess, what should we do now, how can we get out of the presence of His Royal Highness outside?" ”

Yu Ruyan's heart was also in turmoil, she glanced at Mu Lingzhi who fell at the threshold, and didn't know what to do......

At this time, human voices came from the palace wall.

"Little sister-in-law, the Third Highness is already drunk, and I asked my sister-in-law to kindly help him into the house and let him rest for a while."

Suddenly hearing the human voice, Yu Ruyan was startled.

Hearing this, it was Chen Yiqing who was lame on one leg and somehow climbed to the palace wall, riding on it, pointing to Mu Lingzhi on the ground with a face full of pity and said: "Sister-in-law, your revenge for that arrow has also been avenged, the wound on his shoulder has not healed yet, and he has been drenched in the rain all night, you touch his forehead, and he still has a low-grade fever, sister-in-law hurriedly helped him into the house to lie down, feed him some sobering soup, oh, and, ginger soup will also be poured into him again, and the wound will be changed with gauze, sister-in-law can remember?" ”

Yu Ruyan's face darkened, and she was about to ask him to take people away, but Chen Yiqing had already rolled down the palace wall and howled outside: "Sister-in-law, don't be shy, they are all old husbands and wives, he is already your concubine, and there is no reason to let him live in my house anymore." Sister-in-law takes good care of him, it's a guest! ”

Chen Yiqing walked away after howling.

Yu Ruyan couldn't help but be stunned when she thought of his words, hesitated for a long time, and together with Brother An, helped Mu Lingzhi at the door into the bed and lay down, hesitated for a while, reached out and touched his forehead, and was shocked-it was indeed burned.

Yu Ruyan no longer doubted Chen Yiqing's words, and immediately unbuttoned his clothes, and when she saw the blood-stained gauze on his shoulders, her heart froze, and her hands trembled!

He was actually injured? Who stabbed him?

My heart was extremely heartbroken, so I immediately asked Brother An to bring clean gauze, carefully help wipe the wound, take new gauze to help him bandage it again, and feed him ginger soup......

Mu Lingzhi seemed to be very angry, panting constantly, his face was flushed, but his body was shivering with cold.

Looking at his uncomfortable appearance, Yu Ruyan's eyes rose again, looking at the withering mountain flowers in the vase, he already knew in his heart that the mountain flowers must have been sent to the palace by him in the rain, and ...... I stayed outside the house all night, and I didn't know how to hide from such a heavy rain......

In order to help him reduce fever, Yu Ruyan had to twist a cotton towel for him all night to help him cover his forehead......

Brother An didn't urge her, but was very supportive and accompanied her to help Mu Lingzhi, looking at Yu Ruyan's concerned and heartbroken eyes looking at the sleeping Mu Lingzhi, Brother An showed a knowing smile.

After a busy night, Mu Lingzhi's fever finally subsided, and Yu Ruyan was so tired that she couldn't help but fall asleep on the side of the bed......

Xiaodao has not dared to return to Putuo Temple since Mu Lingzhi is looking for himself, but stayed in the farmhouse not far from the temple, although he doesn't like the little girl sticking to himself every day, but when he thinks of escaping Mu Lingzhi, he has to endure the discomfort and stay, and let the little girl named Xiaoru vacate another room, he cleaned it himself, added a few pieces of furniture, and waited for the arrival of Yu Ruyan intently.

Xiaoru can cook all kinds of game, especially roast rabbit and pheasant, which is amazing.

Xiaodao lives in Putuo Temple in a boring time to go up the mountain hunting and met her, saw that her baked things are delicious, so I begged her for a little, I didn't expect, since then, this girl named Xiaoru has nothing to do all day long sticking to the knife, often will burn things quietly sent to the temple for the knife to eat, so, before Yu Ruyan Xian knife fat, all thanks to Xiaoru.

In order to make Yu Ruyan happy, Xiaodao deliberately learned to make roast rabbits and roast pheasants from Xiao Ru in person, and on the day that Yu Ruyan was coming, he went up the mountain to catch rabbits and pheasants, roasted them and put them in the pot to warm them, and waited for Yu Ruyan to eat them as soon as he arrived here after leaving the palace in the evening.

Yu Ruyan made an appointment with Xiaodao to arrive at Putuo Temple at night. Xiaodao was afraid that she would be anxious if she couldn't find herself in the temple, so she waited for her outside the mountain gate of Putuo Temple with a wrapped rabbit and pheasant since nightfall, and thought in her heart that from now on, Yu Ruyan would never leave his side, and there would be no other people to disturb them, only he lived with her every day, Xiaodao's heart was unprecedentedly happy, a pair of obsidian-like eyes flashed with excitement, the joy on his face could not be hidden, and everyone smirked happily several times.

On an early summer night, there were a lot of mosquitoes in the mountains, and the knife was bitten with countless itchy and swollen bags all over his body, but he didn't care at all, and he was full of joy just to wait for the arrival of Yu Ruyan.

But after waiting for several hours, a long time has passed since the agreed hour, and there is still no sound of wheels on the road ahead. Xiaodao went from being the most happy to being anxious, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, if his sister was shown when she left the palace, but they had the human skin mask given by Brother Yue, so they shouldn't have been revealed, so why haven't I seen her come for so long?

The cold stars in the sky were gone, and the food in his arms was already cold, and the knife was in a hurry, so he involuntarily walked forward in the dark along the mountain road leading to Kyoto, holding the food for Yu Ruyan in his arms, and his feet did not stop, and after walking for one night, he actually walked all the way to Kyoto.

The sky was white, and the knife finally arrived in Kyoto, he didn't have time to take a breath, and he didn't care about his tired and numb legs, so he sneaked into the palace non-stop, and flew towards the Hibiscus Sakura Palace.

When he came to the gate of the Jinying Palace, looking at the quiet palace gate, Xiaodao's heart suddenly felt a little uneasy.

He didn't knock on the door, but climbed over the wall and quietly entered, and walked straight towards Yu Ruyan's bedroom.

I saw a bright light shining through the half-open window of the bedroom, and the knife looked in through the window, and the blood in his whole body suddenly coagulated-

At that time, Mu Lingzhi happened to wake up, and saw that he was slightly stunned in Yu Ruyan's bedroom, and suddenly remembered that after he saw her at the banquet last night, he involuntarily followed Yu Ruyan's footsteps, and later, drunk and low-grade fever, he was confused......

Looking at the newly bandaged wound on his shoulder and the cotton towel on his forehead, his heart moved, and his dead heart began to rekindle little by little......

Perhaps, she didn't really want to forget herself!

Seeing Yu Ruyan falling asleep by the bed, he quietly got out of bed, gently hugged her to the bed, looked at her sleeping delicate face, and finally couldn't help but kiss her delicate lips......

However, he didn't know that outside the window, his younger brother had been stimulated to go crazy by this scene!
