Chapter 225: No Choice
"Rather than being unable to advance or retreat like this, Ah Ye, let's get out early. Yue Ren gently squeezed her little hand, stroked her silky black hair, turned and strode away.
Ye Ziyi stood in the room in a daze, not moving for a long time, her eyes were rippling with tears, and the tears wet the placket on her chest.
Walking out of the gate of Tingsong Pavilion in despair, Ye Ziyi looked at the dormitory behind Kikutian on the other side of the waterfront, and slowly stopped.
Only left?
Although she thought about leaving many times, leaving Gongzicheng and leaving this place, she was really scared when it came to her.
Ah Fu is waiting for her, Gongzi Cheng and Yongyi need her, where to go, what should I choose?
"Ah Ye, don't stand in this wind, go back to the dormitory first. He stepped forward and patted Ye Ziyi's back, and nudged her towards the bridge.
Ye Ziyi was silent for a while and said in a low voice. "Brother, Ah Cheng and Mrs. Zhen have broken up, and Mrs. Qi Diliang has high hopes for Tang Gongzi, Tang Gongzi is especially good at social travel, and he is virtuous, so there must be many ministers who have fallen to his side, right?
"Childe here, it's a little difficult, but it's not a big deal, you don't have to worry, no matter what you're looking for people to get by, I know, it must be for the sake of Childe, Ah Ye, Childe is really lucky to have you!"
Fuyou paused and sighed softly. "You and Childe are really enviable. ”
"Envy?" Ye Ziyi smiled bitterly and said in a low voice. "I envy those ordinary women who can rely on each other, even if they are firewood, rice, oil and salt, they can live happily, they are not close to power, they are not very rich, but here, they are full and down-to-earth. ”
Looking at Ye Ziyi, who was patting his chest, he said helplessly. "Ah Ye, you only know how to envy those people, but you don't know their suffering, those who died because of the magnates, those who died because of natural disasters, wars, diseases, famines, where can you have a few days of peace? ”
"Yes, I forgot, there is no perfect life in this world, but there is a slight difference between gains and losses. Ye Ziyi smiled mockingly, looked at the sky and sighed, and said astringently. "It's because I'm too persistent, I want to have a heart, and I can't leave the white head, how is it possible?"
"Childe, he ...... I want to be with you, but I just ...... Providence makes people, but you have such a secret, King Qi, King Liang, Gongzi Pi, and many more people, they are all worried about "Jing Gong's Secret", and they all have ambitions to dominate the world, with the power of Gongzi alone, it is really ......" Fu You did not continue, Ye Ziyi also knew it.
It's really powerless to compete, and I can't keep her safe.
Gongzi Chengkong has military exploits, but he has not yet gained a firm foothold in Qidi, all his operations, after the return of Gongzi Tang, have been greatly discounted, and now, the competition for the position of the crown prince depends on Emperor Qi's promise, if Emperor Qi repents, then, his years of hard work will be in vain.
He Fuyou slowly walked back to the dormitory, and saw Gongzi Cheng in a dark robe standing at the door, Ye Ziyi stopped, looked up slightly at him standing on the white marble platform, and his black eyes were slightly moist.
The well-dressed Gongzi Cheng is very handsome, unusually handsome, this kind of beauty, she didn't think it before, but now it seems that it is really moving, and people can sink easily.
Such a son, he loves her, protects her, and puts her in his heart, she is already very happy, right? But what about him? What else does he have besides the trouble she has brought him?
A layer of tears floated in Ye Ziyi's eyes, and her vision was blurred in an instant, she loved him, so much that she could abandon everything, but they had no future, their future, nothing.
Tears slid down her cheeks uncontrollably, Ye Ziyi tried to open her eyes, trying to see Gongzicheng opposite, but she couldn't see anything clearly, the tears kept covering her vision, everything was blurry, and even breathing became difficult.
Seeing Ye Ziyi's appearance, Gongzi Cheng, who was originally standing on the jade platform, changed his face slightly, he strode down the stone platform, and when he came to Ye Ziyi, he gently hugged her shoulders and said softly. "What are you crying for? I didn't even ask you about your sin, but you wept like this. ”
"I didn't cry, it's windy here, and there's too much sand in my eyes, so let's go back." Ye Ziyi wiped the tears on her face, and walked towards the dormitory, but she didn't wait for her son to become a companion.
Seeing Ye Ziyi hurriedly leaving, Gongzicheng turned his head and asked. "What's wrong with Madame?"
"Today, You Jun sent a letter, saying that the king of Qi sent a decree to the prince and offered Jing Ji on a limited day, and the lady was anxious, so she met with Chen Renyueren, I don't know what the two said, and the lady's heart seems to be heavier. ”
He glanced right in the direction of the dormitory, and gave his hand to the son. "Childe, since Mrs. already knows, Childe still tells Madame the truth, it is better than her suspicion alone. ”
"Turns out she knew. Gongzi Cheng sighed lowly, nodded, and waved his hand tiredly. "Go and rest. ”
"Yes. ”
Gongzi Cheng looked at the dark doorway of the dormitory, and lifted and released his feet for a long time before he took a step and slowly paced towards the dim doorway.
Slowly walked through the dim front hall, and when he arrived at the tent, Gongzi Cheng stopped, he looked at the heavy black curtain, and reached out to remove it several times, but he stopped when he just touched the curtain.
The hall is very quiet, you can faintly hear the sound of Ye Ziyi patting Yongyi inside, and you can also hear the servants talking and laughing loudly in the room, Gongzi Cheng listened quietly, the corners of his lips raised a shallow arc, he stood in front of the tent, just stared at the heavy tent, motionless.
"The one in front, is it Childe?"
Gongzi Cheng turned around, and saw Pei Niang standing behind him with a brocade box, and when he saw the coarse brocade box, he said lightly. "What is this?"
"Hui Gongzi, this is the long-life chain set by Mrs. for the eldest son's full moon, and it has been done today, and it has just been retrieved. Pei Niang smiled and held her hands in front of Gongzi Cheng's eyes, and said respectfully. "Childe, please. ”
Gongzi Cheng took the coarse satin brocade box, and when he saw the small golden lock there, his eyes were gentle, and he stretched out his jade-white thumb to rub the words '100 years old' on the gold lock, and said in a low voice. "Did Madame come up with the style of this golden lock?"
"Yes. It was Mrs. who drew a pattern to the craftsman, and the craftsman did it according to the pattern, which was supposed to add the golden bell, and the lady said that the eldest son was young, and she was afraid that the golden bell would fall and be eaten by the eldest son, so she only added a chain, and the lady said that she would wait for the eldest son to be full moon...... "Pei Niang said, suddenly like remembering something, and suddenly stopped.
"Eternal Memory Full Moon ......" Gongzi Cheng's face froze, his thumb froze, he looked at the golden lock for a while, and suddenly handed it into Pei Niang's hand, and strode out of the hall.
Pei Niang held the golden lock, a little inexplicable, seeing that Gongzi Cheng had gone away, she turned around and opened the curtain and entered the hall.
"Are you back?" Seeing that it was Pei Niang who came in, Ye Ziyi beckoned her to her, took the golden lock and looked at it. "The workmanship is good, is the bracelet ordered?
"Yes, say hello. The shopkeeper said that the bracelet is not difficult, and the lady can go to see it when she is free for the next two days. Pei Niang said and hesitated. "When the slave maid entered the hall, she met Gongzi, and it was strange to say that Gongzi only stood outside and didn't come in, but only looked at the golden lock and went out. ”
"Yes. ”
Ye Ziyi fiddled with the hand of the golden lock, she looked in the direction of the tent with some concern, let out a long sigh, and slowly closed her eyes.
......
The jade rabbit rises in the east, the floating clouds are light, the palace pavilion under the moonlight is hazy like the silhouette of the night sky, the light outline of the dormitory reflects the moonlight, and the light reflected in the door of the hall is illusory.
The drunken Gongzi Cheng stood outside the hall, staring at the heavy curtain inside through the heavy lights, and did not move for a long time.
Fu You glared back at the guards one by one, and seeing that Gongzi Cheng had no intention of leaving, he couldn't help but say. "Childe, it's late at night, let's go in and rest. ”
"Flick right, I'm a little afraid to see her. Gongzi Cheng looked up at the ridge of the temple in the moonlight, and sneered. "I didn't dare to see her. ”
"Childe, Madame is not the kind of woman who doesn't know anything, she knows Childe's difficulties, and she will not complain. Seeing that Gongzi Cheng only raised his head and didn't speak, he said hurriedly. "Is it because of this that Childe will never see Mrs. Ye again from now on?"
"No......" Gongzi Cheng shook his head lightly, closed his eyes tightly, and said in a low voice. "This time it's different, I said, I'm going to protect her, but ...... I broke my promise. ”
"Childe, there will be a way, Childe and Mrs. Ye will discuss it, there will be a way. Seeing that Gongzi had a dejected appearance, he bowed down and said astringently. "The king's will has not arrived, so don't be like this!"
"The will has been made, and it is only a matter of these few days to get to Daliang, not only can I not let Ah Ye live in peace, but I can't even set up a wine for him to congratulate him on the full moon of eternal memory, heh, the position of the prince, the king is threatening the position of the prince, and I will not hand over Ah Ye!"
"Now that the four seas are safe, the king is breaking his word, and we can't wait. Fu You stood up, supported Gongzi Cheng's swaying body and persuaded him. "Childe should go in, you can't stand here all night, right?"
"That's it!"
Gongzi Cheng opened his eyes suddenly, flicked his sleeves, and strode towards the dormitory, following behind him, no matter how he saw that his master had a bit of a chance to risk his life on the battlefield, he couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
In the dormitory, Ye Ziyi was teasing Yongyi, and when she saw Gongzicheng standing motionless in front of the tent after entering the main hall, she couldn't help but smile gently.
Seeing Gongzicheng standing still, only staring at Ye Ziyi, Ami couldn't help but stab Peiniang on the side with her arm, and said curiously. "What's wrong with Childe? Why are you standing so stupidly?"
"I don't know, shhhhh As soon as Pei Niang finished speaking, Ye Ziyi on the couch spoke.
"Let's all go out, Pei Niang, take the eldest son to the side hall, today you all go to the side hall to sleep with him, I have something to say to the son." ”
Ye Ziyi looked at Gongzicheng calmly, no one could see his fragility, only she could see his confusion and helplessness in those eyes that were as heavy as the night sky, at this time, the most painful person should be him, right?
