The desert is wild and boundless.

Heaven and earth are on the line, the sun is like fire, the sand is hot, and all the water is gone.

There are no plants, no people, only golden sand and gravel shining in the light.

Walking in such a place, there is only one thought - water, I need water.

It is scorching, a burning sensation from the outside to the inside of the body, and the throat seems to be sticky together, and it can't make a sound, as if smoke is coming out immediately.

It's a strange circle, I can't get out but I can only go on endlessly, my body has no strength, and I will fall down at any moment in the next moment.

The sun was scorching, sweating, the strong light was shining in people's eyes, the golden orange sun hung in the air, I could only half-close my eyes, and I would be stabbed if I lifted it slightly.

The lips are chapped and become drier after a gentle licking of the tip of the tongue.

Help me, help me.

I wish someone could save me, even if it was to give me a sip of water.

A long figure appeared in front of him, the blue brocade robe was spotless, and the smile that did not reach the eyes shallow at the corners of his lips.

Only the word overjoyed could describe the mood at the moment, and I knew that he would come to my rescue.

"Beiyu Jinchen ......"

Running wildly, his ankle fell to the ground weakly, the sand on the ground was splashed and floated in the air, choking dust poured into his mouth, and his otherwise dry throat burned.

When he got up hand and foot together, he was gone, as if he had never appeared.

Don't leave me behind...... Don't leave me alone...... Please......

Kneeling in the sand, he couldn't even shed tears, the water in his body had run out, and hope had turned into despair.

Why, why should everyone abandon me...... Daddy, mother, sister, friend.

What have I done wrong to make you do this to me!

The fingers were clasped into the sand, and the pain was transmitted along with the heat.

"Jin'er."

The soft call made me stunned for a while, and when I raised my head, a slender figure was imprinted in my eyes, and my red clothes were like blood and my face was like a flower.

For so many years, she is still that face, the dance on the city tower is beautiful to the extreme, time flies, the years are like a song, but my memory is as clear as ever.

She's the one who's long dead, why is she in front of me? Could it be that this is the legendary Huangquan Road?

I moved back, afraid of her approach.

She just put the ceramic bowl in her hand next to me, and the bowl was clear and clean water.

I couldn't take care of anything anymore, and I drank as hard as I could. The sweet liquid flows into the throat and calms the heat in the body.

Things around are blurring, and the light is getting dimmer and darker......

"Wake up! She's awake! ”

When I opened my eyes, my mind was confused.

The layout of the room in front of me is very familiar, and after thinking about it for a long time, I realized that it was my bedroom, but I didn't expect to come back again.

This cage, this place I don't want to be the last thing I want to be.

"Finally woke up, thank goodness. Is there anything you want to eat? Or drink some porridge? A little maid with a double-ringed bun sat on the edge of the bed, holding a bowl of water in her hand. She looked a little raw, I couldn't remember who it was, and I felt a headache just by remembering things.

I sat up half-up, and she quickly brought a cushion and leaned against me.

"The emperor went to the court, and Aunt Zhiqiu also went out for something, so let me take care of the girl, by the way, my name is Hua Mei." She speaks eloquently and crisply.

I wanted to ask her something, but before I could make a sound, my throat burned and ached, and I couldn't breathe even in my chest, as if it were pressed by a big stone.

"Girl, don't talk, you just fell into the water and escaped from death, just rest well, don't fall into any disease." She tucked the corners of the quilt and turned to clean up the clutter on the table.

"How long did I sleep?" It was difficult to speak, and I couldn't stop coughing again and again.

She brought a bowl of white porridge, steaming hot, and it looked like it had melted in her mouth.

"The girl has been asleep for two days, and she has woken up, and the doctor said that if she doesn't wake up, she may sleep forever." She scooped a spoonful and brought it to my mouth, and I obediently swallowed the hot porridge, knowing that I needed something to add, even though I didn't have an appetite.

My memory stopped at the moment when Moyin pushed me into the river, and I had no idea who saved me.

The furnishings in the room were exactly the same as they had been when they left, but there was no dust accumulation, and I leaned back on the cushions, and my thoughts were stagnant, and I wanted to sleep again.

"The girl kept shouting in her dreams, and she couldn't wake up." She fed the last mouthful of porridge into my mouth and took out a cotton handkerchief to wipe it.

"What did you shout?" I was afraid that I would say something I shouldn't have said, so I asked her cautiously.

She put the dishes and chopsticks into the food box, and poured the medicine neatly, the thick black-brown liquid emitted a sour taste, and shook it gently in the white porcelain bowl.

I couldn't help frowning, and subconsciously stayed away from the bowl of potion.

"It seems to be a person's name, what is the morning? I can't hear clearly, dreams, vaguely, and besides, I'm busy boiling medicine at that moment. "She brought the medicinal soup to my mouth, and I almost felt sick when I smelled it, and hurriedly turned my head away." Good medicine is good for illness, if the girl doesn't drink it, how can her body get better? Tomorrow is Prince Xuan's wedding, and then King Ling Ran is behind, and then it is Chinese New Year's Eve, all of which are good days, dragging the sick body, and playing is not fun. ”

I took the medicine, this girl has a strange name, and her words are noisy, but she makes sense of everything, which is quite interesting.

The tip of my tongue was shallow and tried a little bit of medicinal juice, but the bitterness still repelled my courage.

She put a few candied fruits in a small bowl, and I drank them all in one gulp, holding my breath and panting, until I stuffed all the candied fruits into my mouth.

Bitterness and sweetness collide to create a strange taste.

It took a long time for the bitterness in my mouth to fade somewhat.

Inside and outside the palace, the funeral was connected with the happy event, as if it was deliberately arranged.

The ancients had a saying, only hearing the new people laughing, not the old people crying. And here, it has become only happy and happy, not remembering the past and sadness.

Hua Mei's appearance is not like her name, at most she can only be regarded as delicate, and she is inconspicuous among many palace maids, but when she speaks, she can make people have a different opinion of her, which makes people feel good.

She took the medicine bowl away and washed it, and closed the door slightly.

Looking out the window, there was no light, it was gloomy and gloomy, and the ground was foggy.

The pot of holly on the table curled its leaves, dried and yellow, and lost its vitality.

The dead leaves on the table fell together, and the breeze blew and sprinkled on the ground.

His gaze fell on the small bronze mirror at hand. Small and exquisite, only the size of the palm, the pattern carving is concise, there is only one person here, and it is about a flower girl.

When I picked up the bronze mirror and put it in front of my eyes, the pinch marks on my neck had turned into bruises, and I could feel a slight pain when I touched it with my fingertips.

His face was also horribly pale, as if he had been closed by a ghost gate, and the truth was that I had walked around there and almost couldn't get out.

It's okay if I don't get out, but I still have to face things that I can't afford.

Close your eyes, dreams, reality, intersect and don't stop.

Did I call out that person's name in my dreams...... Why do I hope that whenever I am in danger, I hope that he will come to my rescue?

Maybe it's because he's saved me so many times that he's subconsciously formed this habit.

The wind became louder, and the slightly closed door opened gently.

I opened my eyes tiredly, and the door was cramped like snow.

I beckoned her to come in, afraid that she would think too much, so I smiled forcefully.

She held some jujube yam and other body-nourishing things in her hand, put them on the table, and closed the window smoothly.

"Sister Su Jin, I, I'm here to apologize, I was not good that day, I lost my temper at you, I'm sorry." Her voice was so low that she didn't dare to look at me as she sat on the edge of the bed, but just wringed a handkerchief in her hand.

I poked her face with my index finger, "Silly girl, what can I be angry about?" I'm glad you're still willing to come and see me. ”

She finally smiled with relief, but the smile was slightly bitter, and she seemed to be preoccupied.

"Sister Su Jin, are you feeling better? In winter, the water is cold and it is easy to fall into the root of the disease, so you have to take good care of yourself. ”

I nodded, thinking to myself that I was just a dying man, so what was there to care.

At this time, Hua Mei came in and put some pastries on the table, which looked delicate and cute.

Pick up a piece of red bean barley crisp, the taste is rich and mellow, and it melts in your mouth. I picked up another piece and brought it to Ruxue's mouth, she usually likes these desserts the most.

But this time she frowned and shook her head, and before I could ask her, she was retching, sallow, and sluggish.

"What's wrong? Uncomfortable? I asked.

She shook her head nervously, deliberately bypassing the topic.

I have been cautious since I was a child, and at this time I also sensed that something was wrong and grabbed her wrist.

I have learned some simple pulse diagnosis methods before, and occasionally it can come in handy.

She reacted wildly, quickly withdrawing her hand as if she had touched a furnace.

"Like snow! You tell the truth, isn't it ......" I can't go on, and I can't make a conclusion about the coffin by guessing, after all, she is still a girl waiting for the word boudoir.

Ruxue suddenly grabbed my hand, tears streaming down her eyes. "Sister, I really can't help it......"

"Whose child is it? When was this! "It happened so suddenly, even though she was prepared a moment before she said it.

"No, I can't say." She shook her head, tears falling down her cheeks.

I put on my clothes and sat up, "Is it King Ling Ran?" I'll go find him. ”

Ruxue suddenly fell to her knees and looked up at me. "Please, don't say it. If you don't say it, that's the biggest help to me......"

I didn't have anything to say, she said exactly what I said to Rin, she was in a dilemma, if she didn't come to the Jedi, she wouldn't have come to me.

"And what are you going to do?" King Ling Ran is about to get married, just after Beiyu Jinchen's wedding. If this continues, the child will be born, and she will become the laughing stock of the whole city.

"I'll ask him, but I'm not going to tell him about the existence of this child, I don't want to use the child to imprison him. If, if he is determined to leave, I will fulfill him. She wiped away her tears and smiled strongly. I'm going to raise this kid myself. ”

"You're really crazy." I didn't expect that she, who has always been weak and delicate, would make such a decision. "I'll help you, hopefully, you don't regret your decision."

She nodded, without hesitation.

Years later, this incident became the decision I regretted the most.
