Chapter 180: The Last Night
Waking up in the darkness where she couldn't see her fingers, Yu Ruyan opened her eyes in a daze and looked at her for a long time, she forgot the cruel fact that her eyes had been blinded by Mu Lingzhi's own hands, and it was really a tingling pain in her eyes that pulled her memory back
Recalling everything that happened on the torture table, Yu Ruyan's whole body was cold, thinking of Mu Lingzhi's cold sword, her heart was sad and sour, her eyes were hot, and in the next second, there was something cold in the corner of her eye
This sudden feeling was so strange, she was stunned!
His hands hesitantly touched his cheeks, and after touching the cool wetness, his hands froze
The next moment, she couldn't believe it, she took her wet hand to her mouth and licked it gently, until the tip of her tongue came from a slightly salty taste, and she didn't know that her eyes would cry after being blind!
I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, she was really 'a blessing in disguise'. γFengyun Reading Network. γ
Once upon a time, she was envious of the tears that other people would shed, because she often heard that women were made of water. Therefore, when the woman has grievances in her heart and sheds tears, the appearance of pear blossoms with rain is still heart-wrenching and loving.
Just like when she was a child, she obviously didn't break her father's favorite luminous cup. But when she was called in front of her father, as long as the jade pearl who really broke the cup was red in her eyes and shed tears, her father would never investigate the truth of the matter again, and would only decide that she broke the cup, and she was the one who was punished in the end
Since then, she has been thinking about how good it would be if her eyes could cry and cry like Jade Mingzhu, so that her father might love her more, and not add so many innocent charges to her, let alone dislike her so much
once her wish came true, but she suddenly felt that she would cry, but she would only be more cowardly and annoying!
wiped the tears from her face, she used to look forward to the feeling of tears in her eyes, but now she was inexplicably disgusted in her heart----
Her life has come to an end, the tears in her heart have dried up, and she doesn't want to cry anymore
The heart is dead, and the tears are dry
The next moment, there was a 'squeak' opening in her ears, and then, there were footsteps walking towards her, her whole body tightened, and she suddenly thought, where is she now?
Her hand was suddenly held, her whole body was shocked, and she couldn't help but struggle, a familiar voice sounded in her ears, but it was Chunhua, she called out in surprise: "Doctor Wu, the master is awake, come and help her take a look!" β
Hearing this, Yu Ruyan's heart froze, could it be that he actually brought himself back to the other garden?
Thinking of the cruel words that Mu Lingzhi said to her blindly, her heart was cold----
He had already decided that she had betrayed him, remarried Xiaodao as the crown princess, and even more determined that he was the murderer of his mother, and then cruelly stabbed her in the eyes, why? Why are you still bringing her back?
Yu Ruyan's eyes were pitch black, and her heart was even more grief-stricken, her eyes were hot, and warm liquid rolled down from the corners of her eyes
She had just warned herself not to be weak, nor to cry easily, but when she thought of Mu Lingzhi and the matter of the torture table, she still couldn't control the grief in her heart
"The princess's eyes have just been bandaged, don't be too sad, and the princess must not shed too many tears until her eyes are completely healed. It's not good for the eyes."
Doctor Wu's voice sounded, hearing his words, Yu Ruyan was slightly stunned, and the next second, she opened her eyes wide and couldn't see, and looked in the direction where Dr. Wu's voice came from, and finally asked in a hoarse voice: "Dare to ask Doctor, can my eyes still be regained in my eyes?" β
She hadn't heard Dr. Wu's voice for a long time, she already understood something in her heart, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's me who embarrass the doctor, since I'm blind, how can there be a day when I will see again!" β
A heavy sigh sounded in his ears, and Dr. Wu's tone was filled with deep guilt. Said weakly: "Please forgive the princess, it is because my medical skills are not good, and I can't let the princess see the light again"
"Don't call me princess again!" Yu Ruyan smiled dismally, and said slowly: "I have no relationship with the Third Highness, and I really can't afford to be a princess." β
Outside the threshold, a lonely figure stood there quietly, trying to lift his feet into the house several times, but finally his heart was timid.
Chunhua came outside the house, saluted him and said happily: "Your Highness, the master is awake, you can go in and have a look." β
Mu Lingzhi's expression was hurt, he rolled his throat with difficulty, and said in a lonely voice: "You take good care of her, if she asks about me, just say that I am mourning in the palace"
With that, he dragged his heavy steps and slowly left
Sure enough, after Yu Ruyan and Doctor Wu left, she asked Chunhua and Qiuyue, Mu Lingzhi was in the other garden, she wanted to see him!
Chunhua told her according to Mu Lingzhi's instructions, Yu Ruyan's heart sank, and the next moment, she sat up and groped to get out of bed.
Seeing this, Chunhua and Qiuyue were startled, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the master?" But what's uncomfortable? β
"I'm getting out of here!" Yu Ruyan sat on the edge of the bed, she couldn't see where the two maidservants were, but by the direction of the voice, she said to them: "I am blind now, and I can't leave people around me for the time being, if you are willing to continue to follow me, go with me, I am grateful." If you don't want to, I won't force it, so I beg you to take me out of the house and call me a carriage!" β
With that, he stood up firmly, and groped his way out with his previous memories of the room.
Chunhua and Qiuyue were stunned when they heard this, Yu Ruyan became what she is now, they were very heartbroken, and they were willing to leave with her, but
Chunhua quietly glanced at Qiu Yue and asked her to hurry up to ask Mu Lingzhi, and at the same time hurriedly stepped forward to support Yu Ruyan, for fear that she would be hit by the doors and windows of the table, chair, and chair.
Helping her to sit down at the table, Chunhua persuaded bitterly: "Master, the slave maid and Qiu Yue have been by your side to serve you all their lives, but now your eyes are not good, the burn on your body has just receded, and your body is so weak that you can't do it, and now. The wind and snow outside are really big, it's getting dark again, and the master has no relatives in Daliang, so it's better to stay and take care of himself before leaving! β
Listening to Chunhua's anxious words, Yu Ruyan said slowly: "Did His Royal Highness order me not to leave the garden?" β
Chunhua didn't know how to answer her for a while, so she had to say: "After His Royal Highness sent his master back, he has been mourning in the palace, and now he is not in the house." His Royal Highness just instructed the slaves and maids to take good care of their masters, and the other slaves and maids really didn't know. β
Hearing this, Yu Ruyan smiled indifferently and said coldly: "Since you didn't order me to be imprisoned, I guess I still have freedom." β
Let's talk about it. Standing up again, his tone was firm, and he said to Chunhua without hesitation: "Let's go!" β
Chunhua had been waiting for Qiuyue to invite Mu Lingzhi over, so she deliberately delayed the time and said, "Master, wait a minute, please allow the slave to pack up and leave!" β
"No need!" Although she couldn't see the description on her face, Yu Ruyan still understood what she was thinking, and she smiled bitterly: "I know that you are for my good, and I also know that Qiu Yue went to invite the Third Highness, and he may be in the other garden at this time." But don't worry, I have my own place to go, and everything in this garden is not mine in the first place, so I don't need to clean it up anymore. Let's go! β
Let's talk about it. Directly raised his feet and walked out, but in the next moment, his body crashed into the arms of the person and heard a muffled sound.
With a shock in her heart, Yu Ruyan quickly retreated, she thought that the person she bumped into was Mu Lingzhi, but she didn't expect that when the voice sounded, it was the voice of a knife, and he said worriedly: "Sister, where are you going with your eyes?" β
After that, he hurriedly stepped forward to help her sit down next to the table again.
Yu Ruyan didn't expect that the person who came in would be a knife, she thought. Originally, Xiaodao had been under house arrest by King Liang in the East Palace, but I was afraid that after the robbery of the law field, King Liang's anger towards him would be even greater, where would he let him leave the palace casually!?
Thinking of what happened on the execution ground before, she suddenly thought of the knife with a lot of injuries, and couldn't help but think of his muffled voice just now, presumably she hit his wound.
Although she was worried about the injuries on his body, she thought that he could still walk on his own now, presumably the wounds on his body would not be fatal, and she really didn't want to mention the execution ground that day, so she just said indifferently: "You are not in the palace to mourn, why did you come here?" β
"I heard that my sister was in a coma for two days and didn't wake up, I was worried, and the day after tomorrow, I went out of the palace to take a look. Now that I see my sister wake up, I am also relieved. β
Although he rested for two days, Xiaodao lost too much blood two days ago, his face was also pale, and his tone of voice was a little weak.
Thinking of Mu Lingzhi's promise to his father and the emperor's three-day appointment, as soon as tomorrow passes, his sister will be escorted to the execution ground to be beheaded, he is sad and helpless to the point of panic.
The light in the room had dimmed. In the dim light, Xiaodao didn't feel that Yu Ruyan's eyes were any different from before, so he always thought that she was the same as before, and her eyes were good, but after the spring flowers lit up the lights in the room, under the bright lights, when he saw clearly that Yu Ruyan's eyes were the most bright and bright, now they were empty and dead, and after there was no light, his whole body shook violently, and his heart hurt so much that he was suffocated!
In the eyes of Xiao Dao, Yu Ruyan's eyes are the most beautiful and moving in the world, and they are also the pair of eyes that make him feel the warmest.
I still remember the first time I saw her, he was like a hedgehog with sharp thorns all his body, full of deep hostility towards those who approached him, unwilling to trust anyone, and did not let anyone near him---- except her!
Just at a glance, the little knife full of hatred in her heart and always on guard was attracted by her pair of watery eyes that were as clear as spring water and as bright and warm as the sun. Her eyes were gentle and full of kindness, so that he unconsciously put away his whole body defense, and couldn't help but call her 'sister', and was reluctant to leave her again
Gritted his teeth and raised his right hand wrapped in gauze, paused and hesitated in mid-air for a while, the knife finally couldn't help but caress her eyes with heartache, and said in a choked voice: "Sister, do you hurt, don't hate the imperial brother, everything is my fault, if it weren't for my selfishness and recklessness, the matter would not have come to this place, and the imperial brother would not suffer or blind your eyes, if my sister's eyes can't be healed, I will gouge out my eyes to make amends to my sister."
Looking at her pitiful appearance of blindness, Xiaodao's heart ached. And Yu Ruyan listened to his words, but she hooked her lips and smiled slightly, wanting to tell him with her own smile that she didn't blame him.
She obviously wanted to comfort Xiaodao not to be sad for herself, but now her calm smile has a bitter taste that can't be removed, and Xiaodao feels even more uncomfortable.
She opened her big empty eyes blankly, and couldn't see where the knife was, so she had to say in the direction of his voice: "Silly boy, my sister doesn't hate anyone, and no one blames anyone." All this is just my life."
"From the time I put on my wedding dress and was used as a pawn by my father and emperor, and when an arrow was shot at my sedan chair from the Third Highness, I should have understood that people like me will never be happy."
"It's all just my luxury"
The tears were about to burst again, and she gritted her teeth to hold back.
Since her world changed from colorful to endless night, she began to deliberately forget the memories of all colors in her mind, only when she completely stopped remembering those brilliant colors, and stopped thinking about the smiling faces that made her the most obsessed, she would not feel her heart hurt so much, and she could grit her teeth and live
"Knife."
She suddenly called softly to the young man in front of her who was so sad that she collapsed, her voice was as soft as ever, "Sister never blames you, sister only hopes that you can be your prince well, and be a wise king in the future, and cherish Xiaoru well, she is a good girl, with her with you, my sister is very relieved"
Hearing this, Xiao Dao's expression suddenly froze, and his pale face turned out to be flying or red----
After he washed the execution ground in blood that day, he was also seriously injured and fainted from excessive blood loss, and when he woke up, he was already lying in the sleeping palace of the East Palace. Xiao Ru stayed by his side, crying until her eyes were swollen like peaches.
As soon as he remembered the death order issued by his father before he fell into a coma, he didn't care about the wound on his body that had just been bandaged, and jumped up to walk out, but was dragged by Xiaoru.
Xiao Ru hugged his leg and was unwilling to let go, and cried sadly: "Your Highness, you are almost dying, the imperial doctor told you to lie down in bed, so you are not allowed to go there, I won't let you go, I don't want you to die"
He wanted to get rid of her, but his whole body hurt everywhere, and his body was weak. His brain was dizzy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You let go, if my sister loses her life because of your delay, I will definitely kill you!" β
Hearing his words, Xiaoru not only didn't let go, but hugged him tighter, and said with red eyes around her neck: "Don't let go, don't let go." If you want to die for Sister Yu, I will die for you, but in the end, I will die, and I won't let you go! β
After that, Xiaoru not only hugged his waist with both hands, but also crossed his feet and wrapped around his legs, so that he couldn't even walk.
"Shame on you!" The knife was angry, but his arm was seriously injured, he was bandaged with gauze and couldn't move, and his body was weak, so he couldn't get rid of her, but he couldn't do anything about her, so he had to grit his teeth and drag her body out of the door together.
He scolded fiercely while moving with difficulty: "Okay, you dare to disobey the will of this palace, and when this palace is complete, I will definitely hang you up and beat you." Xiao Fushou, where is the death, come and pull her away"
Listening to his intimidation, Xiaoru didn't react at all, and hung him tightly with her mouth pursed.
Xiaoru, who usually looks thin and weak, is like a gold pendant at this time, hanging him so much that he can't walk half a step.
Not only could he not take half a step, but he also leaned over, and fell on Xiaoru's body with a 'thud'
fell so coincidentally, his body pressed against Xiaoru's body, and his mouth couldn't be more coincidentally attached
Although the two have been married, they have not even pulled their hands, and the knife has never had such intimate contact with a woman
In the end, it was Xiaoru who carried him to bed
Suddenly hearing Yu Ruyan mention Xiaoru, Xiao Dao panicked like a deer, obviously Yu Ruyan couldn't see his embarrassed appearance at the moment, but he was inexplicably flustered, and quickly changed the conversation and said: "Sister, how do I feel that you feel like you are making a final admonition to me, do you really want to leave Daliang and leave the imperial brother?" β
As soon as the words came out, he suddenly thought that the day after tomorrow, the imperial brother would finally hand over his sister, but looking at his sister's description, he didn't know anything about it.
Also, the imperial brother must have been hiding from his sister, and he also knew that even if his father killed the imperial brother, the imperial brother would no longer be willing to hand over his sister.
Thinking of this, Xiao Dao inexplicably had a bad premonition in his heart, and he always felt that the imperial brother was hiding something from him.
Yu Ruyan really didn't know about Mu Lingzhi's three-day appointment with King Liang, and now, she only wanted to leave the other garden, leave Daliang, and leave everything here
Thinking of this, she said firmly to Xiaodao: "Sister begs you for one last thing, I hope you must agree to me!" β
Her description was extremely firm and unquestionable, seeing this, Xiaodao's heart jumped, looked at her fixedly, and hesitated: "What does my sister ask me to help you?" β
"Go and help me, beg your royal brother, let him ---- let me go!"
Hearing this, Xiaodao's whole body froze, and he couldn't speak
After a long time, he swallowed his throat with difficulty and responded gently
After the knife left, Yu Ruyan didn't eat dinner, and went to bed again.
And after Xiaodao came out of her room, she was about to go to the study to find Mu Lingzhi, but she saw him standing quietly outside the door, his eyes sunken, and his face haggard!
The two walked outside tacitly, and Xiaodao anxiously asked him what his plans were?
But no matter how anxiously he asked him, Mu Lingzhi just quietly looked at the flowerbed covered with snow in front of him, and never said a word.
I saw that after several heavy snowfalls, all the flower beds he specially opened up for Yu Ruyan were buried by snow, except for some dead branches showing a little outside, and the original lush flowers were gone
After a long time, he muttered to himself with sadness: "I once planted this sea of flowers for Yan Yan, and all of them are the most common mountain flowers such as roses and jasmine that she likes, but she likes very much. I remember that when I met her in the military palace, she always had a bitter face, very afraid of being cautious and cautious, very afraid of me, and very afraid of doing something wrong to make me unhappy, and let her go to the creek next to the barracks every day to make her clothes, as if it was her happiest thing, every time she came back from the creek, she would pick some mountain flowers to decorate the solemn and dull barracks. But what she didn't know was that since her presence, I no longer felt that the march was dull and hard, because she was a light in my camp that I could not ignore."
"Pick her up and go back to Daliang, I look forward to how happy and excited she will be when she sees these flowers, but when I brought her back again, I have missed the flowering period, we have made an appointment to come to the garden to live together in the flowering period next year, I accompany her to see the flowers, she accompanies me to play chess, but now. But I stabbed her blind, and without her eyes, how can I enjoy the flowers and play chess again"
Mu Lingzhi's face seemed to be integrated into this endless snow white, Xiao Dao's heart was also sad, and he said softly with a trembling voice: "Brother Huang, don't blame yourself, the sword you stabbed your sister is also saving her life." At that time, the father and the emperor were personally present to supervise the beheading, how could the imperial brother resist? What's more, the father and the emperor used the entire Daqi as a threat, if the imperial brother wanted to save his sister, so that the people of Daqi would fall into war and annihilation, he was afraid that after his sister knew the truth. I won't forgive the royal brother, because my sister has always been concerned about Daqi, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to make peace for the peace of Daqi."
Hearing this, Mu Lingzhi smiled obscurively and said slowly: "A year ago, I owed her a cold arrow, and a year later, I owed her a pair of eyes, I still owe her a wedding and a name, and I owe her a love debt for a lifetime, if I don't do something for her, I'm afraid I'm afraid that she won't recognize me in the next life, and I don't want to be with me again."
"The day after tomorrow, I will go to the execution ground on time, and when the city gate is relaxed, you can help me send her out of the city and let her go as far as possible."
Listening to Mu Lingzhi's last advice, Xiao Dao's heart trembled, he looked at his most admired eldest brother blankly, and suddenly, a bad thought flashed in his heart.
Looking at Mu Lingzhi's absolutely determined appearance, the next moment, Xiao Dao made a decision in his heart, and he no longer dissuaded Mu Lingzhi. Turned around and hurriedly walked towards the palace
The next day, Yu Ruyan heard that the wind and snow outside had stopped, and got up to leave the house with Chunhua and Qiuyue, but before she reached the gate of the courtyard, she was stopped by the people sent by Mu Lingzhi.
In order to get out of the other garden, in order to leave here, Yu Ruyan finally asked Chunhua to invite Mu Lingzhi to make a final farewell.
Chunhua got her order and went to invite Mu Lingzhi, but when she returned, she told Yu Ruyan. Mu Lingzhi was waiting for her in the dining room!
At that time, it was already evening, Yu Ruyan held Chunhua's hand, groped towards the dining room, and walked all the way, she seemed to have returned to the scene when she was taken back to the other garden by Mu Lingzhi for the first time, at that time, she and Brother An smelled the tempting fragrance of the hot pot all the way to the dining room
But in just a few months, everything is wrong, Brother An is gone, and the man who cooked for her no longer exists
Kankan walked halfway, and the familiar ambergris suddenly came from her nose, and her whole body was stagnant, it was him!
The next moment, Yu Ruyan suddenly raised her hand and covered her eyes in a panic, for some reason, it was obvious that he had blinded her, but she didn't dare to let him see that she had become blind
But in the next moment, her body soared into the air and fell into a familiar embrace, Yu Ruyan panicked, couldn't help but struggle desperately, and said in a lost voice: "Put me down, don't touch me!" β
The hand holding his body froze, and in the next second, Mu Lingzhi's low and charming voice came from his ears----
"On the last night with this palace, this palace will let you go!"
