19. The night dinner is a late return
At the end of the night banquet, when Tong Zhenxue came out, Yiyou suddenly remembered to see the woman in red. asked Zhenxue to wait with her at the gate of the palace. For some reason, she always vaguely felt that tonight's business might not be over yet.
But the one who was waiting did not come out, but waited for him to come out.
When he saw Yiyou and Zhenxue, his body was slightly sluggish, but he didn't see any expression on his face, and saluted: "Weichen has seen Princess Changning, the lord of Zhenxue."
He paused slightly when he said the word princess, Yiyou's heart seemed to be stung by something, Yiyou pretended not to care, waved his hand lightly, and signaled him to be polite, "Lord Ren is polite." She paused, then added, "Thank you Lord Ren for today's events." ”
"Weichen doesn't dare to be." In front of her, he will always be just the polite and alienated and somewhat unfamiliar Ministry of Rites Shangshu, not Mo Yiwu, who is her childhood sweetheart and has no guesses.
Zhenxue bit her lower lip on the side, not knowing what she was thinking, thinking very attentively. Yiyou called her softly, "True snow? ”
She came to her senses and turned her head to look at Yiyou, "Huh? ”
Yiyou raised his sleeves to cover his lips and said with a light smile: "What are you thinking about if you don't go, let's go." He said to him again: "Lord Ren, you have taken the first step." ”
He nodded, sideways to make way for the two.
Zhenxue grabbed Yiyou's sleeve behind her and said, "Sister, I want to be with Yi... Lord Ren said a few words. ”
"Okay, I'll wait for you in front." With that, Yiyou turned around and left.
The carriage that her father had given her and Mayuki had stopped not far from them, and she could see them, but she could not hear what they were saying. When Yiyou was about to get into the car, a little palace maid ran to salute her and said in a low voice: "Princess Changning, the crown princess wants to invite the princess over."
She glanced at the two people who were still talking not far away, and said to the palace maid, "Okay." ”
Suddenly, the air around him condensed for a moment, and a sharp exclamation pierced the night sky, "There are assassins!" Catch the Assassins! ”
Yiyou's brows tightened, and his eyes quickly met Lu Fangyuan in the crowd, and he replied to her with a sneer, with a frightening ruthlessness in his eyes.
There was a group of black-clad and masked assassins who rushed straight to Zhenxue and Lord Ren not far away, and they also secretly screamed badly. Without the slightest hesitation, she ran towards Mayuki.
At the moment before the blade of the sword hurt Zhenxue, he stretched out his hand to block in front of them, the cold tip of the sword penetrated her left shoulder, and the pain instantly rolled towards her, she couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and he quickly stepped forward to catch the crumbling Yiyou.
Yiyou fell into his arms as he wished, but his arms were not warm at all, and they were no longer what they remembered.
Yiyou subconsciously grabbed his sleeve, and at that moment, her eyes only allowed him to be alone.
She could clearly see that there was no longer only a cold light in his eyes, but also the concern and nervousness she had been waiting to see. She didn't want him to be nervous about herself, so she reluctantly made an ugly smile and comforted him, "You don't have to be nervous, I'm fine." ”
Zhenxue on the side also came back from the fright at this time, and stepped forward to support Yiyou, with a look of self-blame and sadness, "Sister......"
Yiyou gently held her somewhat cold hand, and comforted again: "Don't be afraid, Zhenxue, my sister is fine." ”
In fact, the pain in his left shoulder was so severe that he almost fainted. She has been pampered since she was a child, and she has never been seriously injured even when she was in Lu Mansion.
Behind them was a shaky crowd, shouting "Someone arrest the assassin!" This way! ”
Yiyou Flawless cared about whether the assassin had been caught, and inadvertently looked at Lu Fangyuan, the anger in his eyes was already obvious, but she didn't have the heart to look at his face again this time and lived. She turned her head away from him, silently against his anger.
Bursts of colic suddenly began in her heart, Yiyou's face turned pale, and she smiled bitterly, it was really timely, it seemed that it was impossible for her to think about it.
Cold sweat continued to flow down her forehead, she gritted her teeth, and tried not to let herself faint, but she couldn't resist the physical pain after all. Before falling into a coma, he seemed to see the imperial uncle, the imperial aunt and his father and mother coming in a hurry.
I woke up in the palace of the emperor's heart, and vaguely heard the voices of the imperial physician, the imperial uncle, and the father.
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" also coughed violently.
Seeing her wake up, the imperial aunt and E-Niang personally stepped forward to help her up, and E-niang asked distressedly, "You'er, are you okay?" ”
Yiyou comforted Eniang while listening attentively to what Imperial Physician Wang was saying. If he had found out that she had a saffron spell in her body, wouldn't everything have been wasted, and then it would be all over.
No, no, she wants to go back, leave the palace as soon as possible, go to see him as soon as possible, and must not cause the Nangong Mansion to die because of her.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed, regardless of the wound.
"Lie down, get up and do something!" Uncle Huang heard the voice and came over.
"I'm going back." Yiyou bowed his head and replied.
Eniang on the side also looked inexplicable, "Go back?" Where to? ”
"Go home." Yiyou's voice grew lower.
The imperial aunt said angrily: "Go back to what house!" The huge palace can't hold you? The injury is not healed yet, why are you in such a hurry to go back! ”
Yiyou knew their kindness, but she couldn't say it, so she had no choice but to lie down obediently. It seems that I can only go back tomorrow, but I hope nothing happens.
"Father, what did the Imperial Doctor say?" She couldn't help but ask.
The imperial aunt patted her hand, "Now that I think of your injury, why did you go earlier." You kid is really. ”
Yiyou smiled ashamedly.
Father didn't care, "The imperial doctor said that you are already weak, and you are too frightened by injuries and fright, resulting in haggard heart. But fortunately, the wound did not hurt the vital point. It's just that you have to be very careful tonight, so you can't catch the wind chill. The doctor said that you are weak, and you have to recuperate for a while this time. ”
It seemed that Imperial Physician Wang didn't see the red flower spell in her body, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
Turning his head, he saw that Zhenxue and Yiwu were not here, so he asked, "Where is Zhenxue?" How is she? ”
"Don't worry, Mayuki is fine, she's not hurt. It's just that she has been making trouble and refusing to leave if you don't wake up, and it's not convenient for her to be here at such a late hour, I have already sent someone to send her back to the house just now, you don't have to worry. Father's face softened.
E-Niang reproached with a straight face, "Do you know how dangerous it is for you to do this, you almost made E-Niang worry to death." ”
Yiyou drank a spoonful of water fed by Eniang, and argued in a low voice, "But I can't just watch Zhenxue have an accident." ”
E-niang also knew that she had no choice but to take a daughter, so she had to nod Yiyou's forehead, and said helplessly, "You, you, it's really not worry-free." ”
I couldn't sleep tonight because of my injury, and I met him as soon as I fell asleep.
Yiwu was dressed in a bright red wedding dress, with his back to him, holding another woman in the same wedding dress in his hand.
Yiyo's heart felt like something had hit her so hard that she couldn't even breathe.
His voice trembled, and he said hoarsely: "Yiwu ......"
He suddenly looked back, but there was only strangeness left in his eyes, just like the first time he saw him on Chang'an Avenue that day.
Yiyou's tears fell involuntarily, wet rouge, and dyed red makeup. The last note has already taken on a crying tone, "It's me!" It's me! Don't you want me? ”
He stared at his good-looking eyebrows and did not speak.
The beautiful lady on the side turned around, the red gauze lightly covered half of her face, and her lips were like blood and snow. The hairpin in his hair swayed, and he made a crisp and beautiful sound when he collided, and he looked up and asked him, "Who is she?" Brocade Night. "The voice is soft and beautiful, as if it can melt people's hearts.
It's her, it's her again.
Yiyou looked at their interlocked hands in a daze, just stunned.
"She's a friend of mine." He said lightly, his tone was so careless, so perfunctory. Yiyou couldn't help but chill.
More and more tears blurred his vision, and he said sadly: "You're going to get married today, aren't you?" ”
He nodded, his thin lips spitting out a heartless word, "Yes." ”
She asked unwillingly, "Do you want to marry her?" ”
He looked at her coldly, he couldn't tell what the look was in his eyes, it was still the same word, his words were heartfelt, but she wanted to listen.
"Yes."
Suddenly, as if all her strength had been drained, she turned her head away from the blinding red.
"Okay, then I'll bless you, I wish you ......... White, white-headed and old......... The children and grandchildren were full of ......, and she stumbled out, for fear that if she was a second late, she would not be able to control herself.
"Sss She was awakened by the pain, and a sharp pain in her heart made her breathless, and she tried to calm down, constantly telling herself not to think about it. Everything is fake.
