It seems that the dust has settled (4)

She turned around, but instead of going in the direction of the Manna Temple, she walked casually in the palace. She was suffocated, and she just wanted to breathe. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it gradually became a bit of a torrential rain. Xi Xi kept nagging behind her, and she was even more upset, she didn't have the heart to shake it down, so she turned around and wanted to go back to the palace.

It's just that she is on the edge of the rockery at the moment, and as soon as she turned around, a person suddenly rushed out from behind the rockery and collided with her. Xiao Xiang almost fell, but Xi Xi on the side hurriedly helped her.

The other party looked up and hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty.

Xiao Xiang looked at it intently, and saw that the person was dressed as a palace maid, and his eyebrows were very good-looking, but there was some heroism between them, not as charming as ordinary daughters. However, she didn't have the heart to pay attention to the palace maid at the moment, waved her hand to let her leave, and then turned back to the palace.

By the time Xiao Xiang returned to the Manna Palace, it was already half dark, and the decree to draw up the marriage date had already been issued.

After receiving the order, Xiao Xiang felt infinitely tired, and waved everyone away, even Xi Xi was no exception, staying alone in the dormitory.

The already spacious dormitory seemed even more lonely at this time, and the lilac Qiluo yarn was slightly blown by the wind, and the light reflected on it, showing the dark flowers of hidden embroidery. The gauze curtain is connected with a layer of slight breise, and the whole dormitory is like a dream, but it is as beautiful as a fairy palace.

The wedding date was set for January.

Xiao Xiang never thought that the wedding date would be so early. Ordinary people's weddings have to be prepared for a long time, let alone the wedding of her, the most favored princess of the Tang Dynasty. She had seen the introduction of royal weddings before, and the dresses used for the wedding were all newly woven by weavers, and the materials used for that dress would take dozens of weavers for two months to complete.

What can you do in these 20 days?

Xiao Xiang couldn't help frowning, speculating about Li Shimin's intentions. It is said that the will of heaven is unpredictable, with her scheming, how can she guess the mind of Li Shimin, the ancient Mingjun?

The decree has been issued, what else can she do? Unless she can return to modern times now...... Half-squinting, she remembered Li Ke's fiery eyes that night...... She shook her head violently, Li Ke's eyes that night were afraid that she was going to burn the entire Taiji Palace. And today, it was as if nothing had happened to him.

Such an ability to hide her emotions, she sighed to herself.

His eyes swept over the gifts sent by the concubines of the palace before, and Xiao Xiang's face showed a wry smile: It seems that this big wedding can't be stopped. She seemed to see that she was taking another step towards Gao Yang's final tragic end.

She was not reconciled.

I can't help but float the face of Fang's bereaved love in my mind, I don't know what kind of person he is? If...... If his character can be called valuable, she accepted her fate and lived with him in peace.

She does not seek to be heard by the princes, nor does she seek to care for her life in the world, but she seeks the word "peace".

If...... She resigned herself to her fate.

With the measure, her tightly wrinkled brows gradually relaxed, but her heart was still extremely heavy, and her eyes seemed to be lost in sand, and it was sour and unbearable. She sighed, leaned back on the soft couch, and unconsciously gestured with her right hand on her body, looking along the trajectory of her fingers, the stroke by stroke depicted it was like a "swastika" character.

Is that...... All items on the debate machine will have characters on it.

After drawing for a long time, she suddenly realized her movements, and couldn't help but look down, the expression on her face suddenly froze, and she was stunned on the spot. The left hand caresses his right hand, the fingertips run over the fingers, caress the back of the hand, and rests on the wrist. Gao Yang's skin is excellent, and the smooth touch seems to touch the fine silk, which teaches people to be reluctant to leave.

There were tears in Xiao Xiang's eyes, reluctant, reluctant...... She was really reluctant.

But...... The tears in his eyes finally faded in a long sigh, leaving only a room of silence and half desolation.

Early the next morning, Li Ke's team set off to return to the territory.

Xiao Xiang got up early in the morning to see him off, and as the farewell team left the city gate, the carriage and horse slowly stopped. Xi Xi opened the curtain and helped Xiao Xiang get out of the car.

Li Ke was already standing aside, the breeze blew his pale cyan clothes, he had an elegant smile, like a fairy in the golden sunshine, his expression was gentle but like the brother next door, very kind.

"After today's farewell, when will you come again?" Xiao Xiang stepped forward, took the wine prepared in advance, and raised his glass to Li Ke.

"Hehe, Xiang'er is very different today." Li Ke raised his head and drank the wine in his cup, with a smile on his lips, and took the wine in Xiao Xiang's hand again, "My daughter's family still drinks less wine, it hurts her body." ”

Xiao Xiang nodded slightly, thinking that Li Ke, who had treated him so well, was going to return to the fiefdom, and he was very depressed for a while. Whatever his purpose is to be good to himself, can ...... Except for Li Shimin, in this cannibalistic court, he is the only one who does not calculate himself, does not use himself as a springboard, and treats himself sincerely.

After he left, he ...... It's really alone.

Seeing that she looked depressed, Li Ke stepped forward and pinched her face, and teased: "It's so big, you still cry your nose." It's not like I'm not coming back, I'm happy, huh? ”

Xiao Xiang nodded reluctantly, where could she be happy...... Ay.

Li Ke's eyes were a little heavy at this moment, he hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "Xiang'er...... Are you sure you really don't want to go with the third brother? The scenery of Wudi is more beautiful than Chang'an. Isn't it your favorite with green grass and flowing water? The people there also sing a lot of melodious tunes......"

Where can Xiao Xiang not be moved.

Her former hometown was there, and now she can paint everything there even with her eyes closed. Jiuhua Danqing, Xuanwu Yanliu, Yiran Mochou, Qixia Danfeng...... The beautiful scenery appeared in her dreams all the time, why didn't she want to go? Even the ancient city of a thousand years ago is the land of her hometown.

Tears began to well-induce, but they ...... How can she go?

Seeing this, Li Ke let out a long sigh and turned away. I only listened to the faint desolate song echoing in the air: the white horse is in the valley of the sky. A bunch of raw people, its people are like jade. There is no golden jade sound, but a reverie.

Xiao Xiang's fixed pestle was in place, and he didn't say anything for a long time. After the shadow of the convoy was also annihilated in the smoke and dust, she let out a long breath, slowly got into the car, and commanded softly: "Go to Huichang Temple." ”

Xi Xi was stunned for a moment, and then ordered the coachman.

The wheels creaked, and it seemed a little abrupt in the silence of the early morning, Xiao Xiang sat quietly in the car, not saying anything. The body of the car swayed with the bumps of the road, like a lonely boat on the vast sea.

I don't know how long the car has been, but finally stopped slowly, and Xi Xi said respectfully: "Princess, it's here." ”

Xiao Xiang nodded and slowly got out of the car.

The car did not stop at the main gate of Huichang Temple, but stopped at the side door, where there are usually very few people, at this moment because it is morning, only a few small novices hold the broom to clean in front of the door.

Xiao Xiangfang wanted to step in, but his left foot hung in the air for a second, but then retracted.

She stopped in front of the door, her eyes staring at the three big characters "Huichang Temple" on the lintel, but her face was expressionless. After looking at it for a long time, she suddenly turned back: "Go back to the palace!" ”

And there was no more speech.

When Xi Xi and the others saw her like this, they didn't dare to ask more. After the groom's whip was raised, the red-lacquered carriage slowly drove in the direction of the Taiji Palace, impartially. There was only a little smoke and dust along the way, and nothing else.

The heavy bell rang behind him, melodious and far-reaching, rippling through the air.

Such as water lines.
