Chapter 66: Nan Ke's Dream
Ji Lianmei woke up from her sleep, and there was no one beside her.
"Strange, did you go out so early?"
In fact, to be precise, Bai Yucheng did not return all night.
When it was time to go down in the morning on weekdays, Ji Lianmei deliberately stood in front of the mansion and waited for Bai Yucheng.
The carriage and horse walked in, and from a distance, Bai Yucheng saw this petite figure, and his heart hurt as if he had been pulled by someone.
He stepped out of the carriage and walked over to the girl, and watched her smile as she took his arm.
"You're back, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come in, let's go eat together. ”
Bai Yucheng smiled perfunctorily, "I have a lot of official documents to deal with today, I'm afraid I can't be busy." You go eat first. ”
"That's it, it's okay, I'll accompany you."
"Well, you really don't have to accompany me." Bai Yucheng pushed away Ji Lianmei's hand, and quickly went back to Qinxue Garden, without stopping, even when Ji Lianmei called him behind him, he pretended not to hear.
"What's going on today...... It's weird, are you avoiding me? Ji Lianmei muttered to herself suspiciously.
It's just that, probably because I have been busy with a lot of things lately, which has affected my mood.
At night, Ji Lianmei sat on the bed and leaned on the pillow. The insects outside were pleasant, but she felt very noisy.
At this time in the past, Bai Yucheng had already run to her room to stick to her, but now there was not even a single figure.
"Squeak ......"
The door was gently pushed open.
"You're here......." Ji Lianmei sat up from the bed suddenly, and the haze between her eyebrows disappeared in an instant.
But the person who came in was the beginning of the dress.
"Girl, Your Highness will stay in the study tonight, and specially asked me to come over and tell the girl to sleep first."
The expression on Ji Lianmei's face gradually changed from joy to disappointment.
What is this Bai Yucheng doing, will he leave after eating and wiping it clean? If you don't stay with me, then I'll sleep by myself!
Hmph, Bai Yucheng, you'd better come and coax me early tomorrow, otherwise, you just wait and cry.......
The next morning, Ji Lianmei opened her eyes, her surroundings were still empty, and when she asked the maidservant, she learned that Bai Yucheng had not been here yesterday, and at this time, she had also gone to the palace.
Weird, really weird! Could it be that he is in some kind of mood and wants me to coax him?
He suddenly distanced himself from me for some reason, and now he wants me to be a little woman to coax a man? When pigs fly! Even if I, Ji Lianmei, starve to death and die of loneliness, I won't take the initiative to coax a man!
..........
In the evening, Ji Lianmei hesitated for a long time, but still knocked on Bai Yucheng's study door.
Well, isn't it just a coquettish thing......
"Enter."
Ji Lianmei walked into the room on tiptoe, the entire desk was full of papers, and the young man in white sat aside, looking at the green bamboo outside the window, holding a cup of tea and enjoying the time leisurely.
What kind of official business is busy, Ming Ming is very idle.......
Although she complained like this in her heart, Ji Lianmei still asked with a smile on her face, "Bai Yucheng, are you hungry?" I've made a barbecue and let's try it, right? ”
"No, I'll be busy for a while, you can eat by yourself, good." Bai Yucheng looked at her with a smile.
Ji Lianmei saw that although he was smiling, his words were extremely perfunctory, and she couldn't help but be furious.
"I don't care, I don't know what you're throwing into my temper. Today, you will come, and if you don't come, you will come. I'm waiting for you in the bamboo forest. ”
With that, she got up and left.
Just as she turned around
The moment he went, Bai Yucheng covered his mouth violently and coughed violently, and a little bit of red blood dripped on the floor, which he covered up with white clothes........
At night, after a long time, Bai Yucheng was late.
"Why did you suddenly come out to eat, just let the cook cook it." Bai Yucheng walked to the stone opposite her and sat down, the face that had been smiling all the time now had no expression.
He's been like this these days, and Ji Lianmei is used to it.
"Didn't you always want me to tell you something about my time? No, this is my favorite there. She turned up the fire and roasted the beef she had stolen from the kitchen on a barbed wire fence.
"Actually, we have this barbecue here......... too"
“..........”
The already embarrassing atmosphere suddenly fell to the freezing point.
The roast made a sizzling sound, and a drop of hot oil slowly slid down the lines of the plump meat. The meat was washed by charcoal fire, and the aroma was overflowing, and Ji Lianmei sprinkled a handful of salt and pepper powder at the right time to make the meat more flavorful, tender, and crispy......
With the blessing of food, the mood seems to have become a little better.
She swallowed her saliva, gave the meat clip to Bai Yucheng, and said with a smile: "After eating in a while, let's go out for a walk together." Now the morning laurel and the late lotus are blooming just right. ”
"Oh......" Bai Yucheng lowered his head to eat meat, and did not look at Ji Lianmei.
The more she grinned, the more he couldn't get the heart to distance herself.
The meat in front of him was piled higher and higher, Bai Yucheng couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at the girl in front of him, and quickly withdrew his gaze.
Ji Lianmei's bowl was clean, and there was not even a little oil and water. Facing the fire, she concentrated on roasting the meat, and when it was done, she blew it again to see if it was cooked before handing it to him.
Now, she is carefully currying favor with him, taking care of him.
"You...... Why be nice to me. Bai Yucheng looked at Ji Lianmei and slowly put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"You are my future cash cow, if I am not good to you, who can I be good to?"
In four years, from Liu Guo to Wu Yue, and then from Wu Yue to the Great Song Dynasty, he became the main body of her memory. He always gave her shade to keep her out of harm's way, and she was used to having him around.
One day, Ji Lianmei will become inseparable from him, and when the time comes, it will be too late for him to do anything......
"I'm tired, go back first, you should go back early." Bai Yucheng said, and stood up.
Ji Lianmei was neither angry nor annoyed, and replied flatly: "Okay." Rest early, I know you've been busy lately, I'll be obedient and never bother you. After saying that, she stretched out her hand as if she swore to the sky.
She heard Situ Che say that the emperor had blamed him for all the frontier wars and the flooding of the Yellow River. Maybe it's because of exhaustion, so I'm estranged from her.
At the moment, we can't mess with him unreasonably.
Bai Yucheng returned to Qinxue Garden, then slumped on the bench and sighed.
"Your Highness, it seems that today's results are not fruitful." Mian Fu walked into the house from the attic and poured a bowl of medicine on the stove for Bai Yucheng.
"Thank you."
"Your Highness, have you eaten something meaty? I've explained everything, your body can't be greasy now, why don't you listen? As soon as he inhaled his nose, he smelled the aroma of barbecue.
"I'm afraid this is the last time I'll be able to sit with her and talk to her." Bai Yucheng smiled in disappointment.
"Mianfu, do me a favor......."
The next morning, Ji Lianmei was woken up by the hurried footsteps and shouts of the slaves.
She put on her coat and went out to hold her face
A handmaid in a hurry.
"Sister Changchu, what happened in such a hurry?"
"Girl, why are you still here? Your Highness, he fell into a waterhole when he went out to go to the morning court, and now he is lying unconscious in Mr. Fu's bedroom......."
"What did you say!" Ji Lianmei grabbed Shang Chu's shoulder, and her voice increased suddenly, seeing that she couldn't get a response, she hurriedly ran to Mianfu's residence.
Surprises always come so unexpectedly.......
Ji Lianmei broke into Mianfu's bedroom, only to see a circle of people around his bed, Situ Che, the three brothers of Sheng Xiaodi, and the sisters of the Shang family were all standing on the side, while Bai Yucheng was wrapped in an edelweiss blanket and shivering, and Mianfu was sitting on the side of the bed to feed him medicine.
Ji Lianmei rushed forward with an arrow step, picked up Bai Yucheng's face and looked left and right.
His face is a little pale, his eyes are bright, and he is not missing arms or legs, so it seems that there should be no big problem.
"Have you seen enough?" Bai Yucheng glanced at her indifferently, and his two eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Bai Yucheng, you, what's wrong with you?" Ji Lianmei withdrew her hand, and a strong uneasiness welled up in her heart.
"Who are you and why are you here?"
"I, I'm ......"
Wife....... Although Bai Yucheng said that she was his only wife, he didn't marry her in the final analysis, so how could he be called a wife.
"You don't remember me?"
"Calm down, girl, Your Highness has been stimulated by falling into the pond, and I don't remember what happened in the past four years. He knows the sisters of the Shang family, the brothers of Sheng Xiaodi, and Situ Che and me, but he can't think of you. ”
This news was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and Ji Lianmei gradually fell to her knees.
"Bai Yucheng, where did you see the bloody plot, there is nothing new at all......" Ji Lianmei knelt on the ground and took Bai Yucheng's hand.
It was cold, just like the way Bai Yucheng looked at her now.
Mian Fu shook his head and said to the others, "Let's go out and let them be quiet." ”
After everyone went out, the originally narrow space suddenly became wider.
Bai Yucheng shook off Ji Lianmei's hand, his tone was very indifferent, and he didn't look at her with disdain.
"I didn't embarrass you in front of everyone because I took into account that you are a girl, and now that they are gone, can I confess your identity?"
"You don't remember? I'm Ji Lianmei, yes, your wife in Wu Yueshi. ”
Bai Yucheng nodded thoughtfully: "I have heard your name, you are the princess of Heqin assigned to me by Liu Guo." But listen to Mian Fu, now that Wu Yue has been seriously injured, your task has been completed, there is no value in staying here, you can leave here. ”
In your eyes, am I just an outcast now?
"Do you really want me to leave? Didn't you count what you said? ”
Bai Yucheng smiled contemptuously and asked, "Then you can tell me what promises I gave you." ”
"You said you would always be with me, and you would make me your only wife. We also swam together in the lantern festival, let go of Kong Ming lanterns, fell off the cliff together, and helped each other in the same boat. You told me that it is better to be hired for the rest of your life. ”
"Oh? Since there are so many good memories between us, why did I delay marrying you for a long time, but instead married the princess of Xianbei Fanbang? ”
"I ......."
"It doesn't matter if your story is true or not. In the future, you only need to remember that Bai Yucheng has no heart, since I didn't marry you when I loved you so much, it will be even more impossible in the future. Memories of this kind of thing are not needed, they are just vines that grow, giving birth to many branches and adding a lot of trouble for no reason. It's just a four-year memory, and if you forget it, you forget it. ”
