411 regrets
He looked around.
He didn't realize it when he was there, but now, only himself, the whole house, the whole heart, couldn't contain the emptiness.
Just because, one less person.
At first, he was pacing back and forth, stopping and going, not knowing what to do. Now, he sits next to the lotus couch where Su Jinling usually reads, caressing the "Beijing Colorful Rhyme" lying on it, and remembers the joy she showed when she put down the book every time she saw him return home early......
She kept every issue of "Beijing Colorful Rhyme", but he knew that only the content that recorded him and her would be repeatedly read by her, so that the edges of the closed pages were obviously much deeper.
He looked again at the large sandalwood bed covered with a brocade tent...... He deliberately lowered the curtain, because the space on it was frighteningly empty. Then she couldn't help but look again and again, as if the next moment she could see a crack in the closed curtain, and her slender fingers were on the edge of the gap......
Knowing that it was impossible, he couldn't help but hope so much, just like after he listened to He Lingtai's repeated worries, he who had always been able to make good decisions actually ran to Xi'an Mansion and stubbornly lied to himself Su Jinling was just running away from home, and what kind of hijacking by the Immortal Sect was arranged by her, just because she was angry with him, but he clearly knew that she didn't have so many ghost thoughts.
He still searched every corner of Xi'an Mansion, and he was a little out of breath because of his deep internal strength, but he didn't dare to stop...... Su Jinling is used to getting lost, and Xi'an Mansion is so big......
But he was destined to be disappointed.
When it was dark, he began to fantasize that Su Jinling had changed his mind and returned to the palace, but what was waiting for him was an empty space.
Sent away the anxious Su Mufeng, and now, he can only sit quietly in the room.
Nuan Yu's house is as warm as spring all year round, but he feels that tonight's Nuan Yu Sheng Xiang Pavilion is extremely cold.
In the past, the two of them had an awkward quarrel, but as long as he saw the lights in this room from a distance, his heart was at ease. But he is in it today, and his heart does not know where it is.
He Lingtai said that when she met Su Jinling in the morning, her face was very bad, and her words seemed to have the intention of leaving.
Jinling, even if there is no today's thing, are you ready to leave me?
There was that little burden on the desk......
A few changes of clothes, a lacquered wooden box.
He knew that this was Yuwen Xuancang's thing.
I wasn't awkward in my heart, but I still opened the box.
At the top is the carved duck he gave her.
He picked it up carefully, vaguely recalling the nervousness of the time...... He suddenly thought that if he could keep her from suffering from this difficulty, he was willing to guard her silently forever as he had done before.
There are several brocade bags on the side of the box, and one roll is a million taels of silver tickets...... I think it was Su Jianglie's private money for her, and one was ......
Fluttery.
Open it......
A few dried petals floated out from inside, a faint pink color.
He picked up a little strangely......
Morning Camellia?!
My heart trembled.
It was the first court banquet after their wedding, and he made a morning tea for her......
He had forgotten it, but she still had it. These flat petals, not even the flower stalks, you can see how much effort she has taken to preserve them, but he never knows.
What else did he miss?
Picking up the jewelry, the lower layer was full of gadgets he bought along the way when he took her out to play.
The corners of the lips are slightly hooked...... This stupid girl, don't you know that your wealth is not exposed? Hide these worthless things tightly.
But the smile flickered...... These things are probably the priceless treasures in her heart.
Astringency in the throat.
He took out a strip of ice-blue cloth from the bottom...... Because of the poisoning incident back then, both of them misunderstood each other, so that neither of them was embarrassed to speak first. And he missed her very much, so he peeked at her outside the window at night, but was discovered by Shen'er. As he fled in a hurry, his robe scraped against the window...... So the strip of cloth fell into her hand and hid it under her pillow......
Jinling, you took everything related to me with you, except for me......
Pick up the few clothes, there is still her lingering fragrance on them.
She has a lot of clothes, but she only likes to wear these few pieces, which are simple and embroidered very little.
He unfurled a brocade robe the color of the lake.
Suddenly, a few things fell to the ground in bits and pieces.
Reach out and pick it up.
When his eyes touched the dragon and phoenix pattern on it, he suddenly froze, and for a moment his chest was stuffy and couldn't breathe.
It was Yuwen Yiwei's children's clothes that gave her, a set for boys and girls, and she was happy and a little embarrassed to show him at the hot spring that day.
"Xuanyi, I want a child...... Not for that seat, just for a child of you and me......"
"Xuanyi, do you like boys or girls?"
"Xuanyi, do you think the child will be more like you or more like me?"
"Xuanyi, what do you say our child will be called in the future? We don't want the emperor to give a name, okay? I want you to give him a name......"
"Xuanyi, I like you......"
He clutched the delicate and small garment, and the rift in his heart lengthened and deepened again, oozing bright red blood.
Since going to the hot springs, she has begun to believe that she will have a child soon, and she is willing to take the initiative without him convincing her about the bed.
He thought it was a legend, but as long as she was happy, it was better than anything else.
She wanted a child so much, a child with him, and now she finally got her wish, but ......
If it weren't for this ordeal, if she had known that she was pregnant, would it have been someone else who would have been the first to tell him the good news? So all the suspicions will disappear, and they will be reconciled again......
This morning, he clearly saw that she was uncomfortable, just because of Qi Lianjiao's words...... "Is it sleepless at night?" Dreaming a lot? The princess must not think too much, she will be tired...... "He decided that the person who kept her awake late at night was not himself.
If he hadn't withdrawn his hand at that time, if he had sent her home immediately, would he have been able to share the good news with her now?
Qi Lianjiao is really not simple, but if he has no guilt, how can he hesitate easily? When he withdrew his hand, he saw that her expression was gloomy, but he ignored her cruelly.
He actually hurt her for a provocative word, what happened to him?
He is really inferior to Yuwen Xuancang, Yuwen Xuancang still knows that there are "inexplicable people who say something inexplicable to make her sad", but he is in the dark.
What did Qi Lianjiao say to her? Why didn't she tell him?
No, she did, but he was entangled in the name she had evoked in her dream, and how could she not forget that person? He only thought she was unreasonable, but she regarded it as defending Qi Lianjiao, making her think that he was empathetic.
It's so easy to be divided by unrelated people.
It turned out that he was nothing more than this, and he thought that he was full of her, and he was really self-righteous!
Since he could silently protect her and help her when she was thinking of that person before, he would even occasionally hope that she would be with that person, as long as she was happy. He can snatch her back from Luo Ge despite his father's guilt, he can give up ten years of life to ask for a bottle of elixir for her to relieve residual poison, he can wait patiently for her to fall in love with him willingly, and be pleasantly surprised by her little closeness to him, and he can pretend to be that person to hold her hand and say "I'm here" when she calls that name in her dream...... But why can't he stand it now just because of one of her dreams? Besides, he didn't know what kind of dream she had.
Did he give her a chance to explain?
No.
He was only angry, insisting on his face, but in his heart he longed for her to come to him. As long as she would show up, he must be crazy with joy.
They had had a lot of stumbles along the way, and he thought that they would be the same as before, and one day the clouds would clear, and he was looking for this opportunity. However, recently, there have been some treacherous things in the court, and the emperor suddenly said that he would marry Qi Lianjiao...... She must have noticed it, he didn't want the two of them to fall into trouble again.
So I didn't accompany her, but only learned through Qiu'e whether she had eaten, whether she took tonic seriously, and whether she slept peacefully at night......
She didn't seem to be any different from usual, and no one thought that she was going to leave him.
She must have been desperate when she made this decision.
It's no wonder that in the past, whenever there was trouble, he could discuss it with Xuan Rui and Xuan Zheng, but what about her? Fifteen years of secluded life has made her not know how to confide in others, and she rarely goes back to the palace of the Martyr King, even if she goes back, some thoughts are not able to be shared with her father and brother, and she is used to reporting good news but not bad news. She has no friends either, Fan Yingbo is dull and indifferent, Qiu'e is childish, and Xuan Zheng is inconvenient......
On weekdays, she is gentle and considerate to her subordinates, mature and steady, but in front of him, she is gentle and considerate, whispering softly, sometimes weeping and coquettish, full of little daughter feelings.
He suddenly found that she regarded him as her dearest and beloved person, and the only person she could get close to was him, only him.
But what about him? Just for the provocation of an irrelevant person, just for a dream word without his name, he brushed his sleeves away.
He cherished her so much, little by little to gain her sincerity, after she began to rely on him and trust him without reservation, after she did not hesitate to give up ten years of yang life in order to save his life in order to make him "as good as ever", after she confided her sincerity to him, after she completely handed herself over to him, after he was willing to get her, after she refused to let him touch at the beginning to give birth to children for him regardless of the danger, he ruthlessly pushed her away.
These days, how is she haggard and afraid of Qi Lianjiao's existence, entangled in his indifference? Today, how did she smile at the emperor's will, the woman who had repeatedly bullied her and provoked her to do things and wanted her to die?
Now, he could finally imagine her heart breaking.
He snubbed her, hurt her, and she just disappeared suddenly, in case ...... Don't wait until what happens, he can't regret it.
