Chapter 171: Please let me be selfish for once.
Just a dance before me? No, Xiao Jincheng will never like women like this much! But what does he mean by bringing me here today?!
He doesn't remember my previous dance, or has he forgotten that there was such a person?
I smiled miserably, reached out and took his hand on my left side, squeezing it gently, feeling his obvious stiffness, "Let the minions stay with you in the future, so you won't be alone anymore." β
He looked at me with some surprise, looking confused, but he didn't veto my words.
Xiao Jincheng, who did you do that for? If you're for me, then why do you stand in front of you and you don't recognize me? If it's for the summer rain, then why does the loneliness in your eyes come from?
At this moment, I was also bewildered by the loneliness in his eyes......
Xiao Jincheng had already let go of the hand that trapped me, pulled me directly to sit on the edge of the bed, and gently rested his head on my hands to pretend to sleep, as if he was tired.
In addition to a moment of stiffness, I was quietly with him, quietly by his side, this was the first time, the first time there was no indifference between us, no quarrels, just enjoying this moment of tranquility, from time to time, a naΓ―ve thought emerged in my heart, if I could be like this with him all the time is also a happy thing, but I know that this is just a luxury, even if he knows that I am at ease, he can't belong to me alone, even if he does a lot behind his back, but there is still a summer rain between us, a generation of emperors, even if you find a stand-in, how long can you survive? Sooner or later, sooner or later, he needs an heir, and the royal heir cannot be defiled.
In fact, I can already guess what will happen to Mrs. Ya in the near future!
That kid, can't be kept!
The handsome face on his lap was like a child at this time, and he had no defense against me, and he was looking peaceful, as if he had fallen asleep.
I reached out to soothe his frowning brow, but fearing to disturb his slumber, I slowly lowered my hand an inch in front of him.
Looking at the sky again, night had already fallen, and the closed Zhu Gate had already blocked the north wind whistling outside, and the slightly hidden rosewood windows reflected the scenery outside into my eyes.
The snow outside had long since stopped, and a white patch of snow glistened against the background of the night.
Tranquility, peace, is exactly what I feel at the moment.
"Guifei Niangniang, you can't go in......" There was a faint voice from the chief eunuch Li Gonggong who deliberately lowered it outside.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but tremble in my heart, I forgot that I was in the limelight today, if Xia Yu came in and saw me in the emperor's bedroom, he would definitely hold a grudge, maybe it would bring many crises in the future, I subconsciously looked at him.
At this time, he had already opened a pair of sharp eyes, I don't know if he was woken up by a sound outside or if he hadn't fallen asleep at all?
He sat up gently, shook his head, looked at the closed Zhu Door wistfully, and said in a lazy and low voice, "Come in." β
As soon as I heard his answer, I immediately got up from the bed, my legs were numb as if I were unconscious, and the slightest soreness made me very uncomfortable, and besides, I was barefoot now, so when I stood up, the chill on my feet suddenly hit my whole body, but I could only grit my teeth and endure it.
When the Zhu door opened, Xia Yu, who was dressed in jewels, stepped into the threshold, and entered with the slightest cold air outside the door, while Xiao Jincheng had faded away from the laziness just now, and he was like a king, sitting proudly on the bed, looking at Xia Yu with a squint.
This is the first time I've ever seen them get along with each other.
"Brother Qingshu, how can you let a lowly slave come to the Heart Palace?" The moment she saw me, she looked a little excited, and pointed to me who was standing silent.
"I said that she is my An Jieyu." A sharp light swept over her, staring at me with a faint smile.
"Brother Qingshu, you can't just give her a Jieyu just because she danced the same dance as that woman, right?!" Xia Yu's attitude did not restrain in front of Xiao Jincheng, and he was even more arrogant than before in the palace.
"You mean I lied?" Xiao Jincheng's voice was unusually low, and the smile just now disappeared instantly.
Listening to his words, Xia Yu was speechless for a while, and could only stare at me angrily for a long time The rise and fall of her chest proved her anger at the moment.
I just stood quietly in place, not speaking, not moving, talking too much would only make Xia Yu grab my handle and aim the finger at me even more.
Xia Yu looked at me for a long time, but he didn't know what he thought, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"Say what." He gently adjusted the slightly wrinkled dragon robe after lying down, his tone was elegant and thin, and his voice also interrupted the dark smile on the corner of Xia Yu's mouth.
Xia Yu didn't reply, but his eyes gently glanced at me, signaling that I should avoid it.
I bowed down and bowed to the palace with interest, and then withdrew.
Xiao Jincheng didn't stop it, it seems that there are really a lot of unknown secrets between him and Yuyu.
As I walked barefoot in the cool corridor, looking at the stars twinkling in the night sky, I suddenly thought of Jeruhuan.
I don't know if he just denied me in the palace, if he didn't recognize me, why did he ask the emperor for me alone?
I didn't even recognize Xiao Jincheng, who had watched this dance twice, how could he recognize me?
Or maybe I was so engrossed in it that I hit a once hard 'wall', I screamed in pain, and suddenly looked up at the person, and my face immediately changed miserably.
"Isn't this An Jieyu who is ambushed on all sides?" A low laugh rang out from the sidelines.
I looked at the man who spoke, he looked burly, he should be a member of the Khitan fierce general.
I quickly straightened up and said softly, "See the Great Khan." β
I tried my best to dodge Yeluhuan's thoughtful gaze, but I saw that the general suddenly burst out laughing, extremely arrogant, and a small voice continued to echo in the corridor, my heart tightened, did they find something?
"I didn't expect the emperor of the Southern Dynasty to like this, except for the dance just now, which was a little special, this face is simply ordinary." After the general finished speaking, he looked at Yeluhuan, "Why is the Great Khan the same as that emperor?" β
Hearing his words, I was slightly relieved that this was the case.
Ye Luhuan's expression was a little complicated, his eyes showed a faint pain, and he stared at me intently, "Xiao Jincheng is really enjoying the blessings of Qi people. This sounds like something profound.
I was secretly thinking about what he meant by this, but I saw him go straight past me and walk away.
The general smiled contemptuously at me, then hurried to follow, and as he crossed my shoulders I distinctly heard the tip of his nose snort.
I stood a little stiff in place, thinking about what he said when he left, a little distracted, knowing Xiao Yiran's appearance, looking at his side face hidden in the shadows, I couldn't open my mouth to speak.
Overnight, it seemed like we were all on opposite sides, and neither of us was friends anymore.
"Let's go have another drink." His voice was flat, and I couldn't hear the ups and downs, and I smiled, "Okay." β
The same place, the same table of side dishes, the same two people sitting opposite each other, but unfortunately it is not the original wine talk at all.
Xiao Yiran drank three glasses of wine in a row and then stared at the empty glass silently, immersed in this strange atmosphere alone, and I didn't break it.
"Girl......" he suddenly raised his glass to me, "I'm sorry for taking advantage of you." After that, he took a sip, poured another glass, and faced me again, "I'm sorry, I hurt Chunrui." β
I looked at him and laughed, sarcastic in my voice.
I'm sorry? I'm sorry, if it's useful, what's the use of asking the police? Although there are no police in this world, there are many people in Dali Temple at that time.
A few glasses of wine, just want to take a human life? He thought it was simple!
"Stinky boy......" I raised my glass softly, the last time I called him like this, "thank you for sparing Yeluhuan that day." After drinking it all, the pungent sensation instantly swept through the mouth and lower abdomen, and he poured a cup one after another, "Thank you, let me understand that in this deep palace, don't trust anyone!" β
I drank it all again, and lowered the glass hard, and the sound echoed.
After two drinks in a row, I got up leisurely, left with my head sideways, and only took two steps, but was stopped by him, "Rest assured, we don't owe each other from now on." β
As soon as I heard his words, I immediately turned around and smiled at the corners of my mouth, "Okay, so I can rest assured." β
Rest assured to take revenge on each and every one of you, everyone who participated in the harm to Chunrui!
I looked at him with a cold smile, but my heart was so soft that it almost destroyed the hatred that I had just grown strong.
I quickly turned around and left the place, without any nostalgia.
Walking all the way, I didn't know where I went, I didn't know where I wanted to go, I only knew that I was already unable to walk, and finally simply squatted down, supported my hands in the cold snow, and froze my hands.
Holding a piece of snow white, he stared at it for a long time, "The snow is like plum, the plum is like snow, it is all arrogant, pure but cold and cold." "There are plums in the snow, and there is snow in the plums, what a beautiful scenery it will be!
"Peace of mind." The sudden appearance of Jeruqi made me suddenly come back to my senses.
"Why did you get here alone?" His voice was faintly a little hurried, and then his eyes suddenly tightened when he looked at me, "What, you're not going to ask for these hands and feet, are you?!" β
The voice was thin and angry.
I followed his gaze and looked down, opened my mouth to explain, but couldn't say anything, and suddenly laughed.
He was startled by my sudden laughter, and then looked at me a little nervously, "What's wrong, but where is it frozen?" Get up. β
After saying that, he quickly stretched out his hand to help me up.
I laughed and said hoarsely, "It's okay, it's just that I can't find my way back, and I just think it's funny." β
He looked at me in amazement and continued to laugh at me, and finally turned around and squatted down speechlessly, "It's not that you don't know the way, but you don't know if you can finish this road." β
Hearing his words, the smile on my face instantly disappeared, looking at the arched body in front of me, with broad shoulders, and my thoughts were turning, "Since you can't finish this road alone, I'll finish it with you on my back." β
My eyes suddenly heated, I bit my lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally lay on his back, and he carried me on the long road.
Xiao Jincheng didn't stop me from leaving barefoot, Yeluhuan didn't notice me standing barefoot, Xiao Yiran didn't notice me walking barefoot, only him, only he saw me barefoot and squatting in the snow at first sight.
It's a really hard road, and now my feet are numb, and I really can't walk anymore.
Please allow me to be selfish for once, I want to have someone who can accompany me all the way through this long road, someone to help me when I am tired, someone to comfort me when I am in pain.
