Chapter 7: The Emperor's Affection
Baili Yu Xin tugged at the corners of his mouth, it was an eventful time now, and seeing the courtship documents of Donglu Country made him immediately angry. A barbarian from the east wants to marry his daughter as a concubine, which is really a fool's dream.
In the imperial study, a black figure knelt motionlessly below, Baili Yu Xin sat in the dragon chair, and the five-clawed golden dragon flew on his chest.
"Shadow, hand over this letter to Leng Shaoyun with your own hands." Baili Yu Xin carefully stamped a brand seal on the seal of the letter.
"Yes, master." The Shadow replied in a deep voice, although he didn't know why he would leave such a trivial matter as delivering a letter to him, the secret guard, but he was born to ask why, and his education since childhood told him that he could not refuse the orders of his master.
Baili Yu Xinping retreated from the people who were waiting around him, and quietly came to the back of the study, which was his forbidden place, no one guarded it, but no one had the courage to approach here, there was his deepest love, and there was his weakness.
The sound of "squeak" sounded sharply, so that the quiet hall was suddenly covered with a layer of supernatural color, and the wind brought out by opening the door made the hanging white veil fly gently, like a fairy's clothes ethereal and awe-inspiring.
Baili Yu Xin's footsteps were a little sluggish, as if he didn't dare to go forward, but he didn't want to give up such a good opportunity.
In the depths of the empty hall, there is only a painting as tall as a person, the eyebrows of the woman in the painting are like distant mountains, her eyes are like pools, her lips are red without dots, slightly open, as if there is an indescribable parting sorrow, and her black and clear hair hangs down to her waist. Baili Yu Xin looked at the woman in the painting, her sharp eyes gradually softened, she stretched out her hand tremblingly, and her slender fingertips wanted to touch the woman's jade-like face, but she found that she was always so far away.
"Shiyu, are you okay?" After speaking, he laughed to himself again, as if he had never heard such a funny joke, laughed presumptuously, and said self-deprecatingly, "My worries are really superfluous, how can I make you bad with Brother Yang." ”
Baili Yu Xin took a step closer, and her thick palm pressed tightly against the woman's fair face, "Shiyu, Ning'er has grown up, but she can't find half of your shadow on her body." She is as stubborn as you, daring to disobey my orders, if, if I insisted on marrying you at that time, if I hadn't given you to Leng Yang for the sake of brotherhood at that time, would you not have died. ”
"But how can this wolf-like deep palace accommodate such a simple and beautiful you, how can I be willing to trap you in a dark cage, I am not willing, I am not willing."
"Don't worry, I won't let Ning'er be wronged, and I will never let her marry Donglu."
The last sentence came out of his mouth like an oath, and he would never live up to Shiyu's instructions before he died, and take good care of Ning'er like his own daughter.
It was night, the summer wind was a little cool, and a white shadow silently streaked across the sky above the palace, flying straight towards the city gate.
"Master." Suddenly, a black figure floated in front of her, silent. Leng Xian Ning hurriedly turned around and landed in the open space not far away, her black and white eyes staring straight at the person blocking her way, "Get out of the way." Her voice was cold and unwarm.
The black figure took a step back, blending in with the night, but still bowed his head in a regular manner, and said calmly, "Lord Qing ordered that it was an eventful time, so that the master should not leave the palace." ”
When Leng Xianning heard his words, she just gently hooked the corners of her mouth, fiddled with the corners of her clothes that were blown by the wind, and replied without being salty or light, "If I must go out." ”
The plain voice has a momentum that is not angry and self-threatening, as if he was born a king.
The air was quiet as if there was no one, only the restless rustling of the leaves, which made the scene even more eerie, and the two figures in black and white confronted each other, one lazy and the other respectful.
Leng Xianning's gaze kept staring at him all the time.
I couldn't stand it anymore, so I continued to take a step back, although I was a little shocked in my heart, my face was still impassive, "Please don't embarrass your subordinates." ”
"Huh." Leng Xianning chuckled, narrowed his eyes, and looked mockingly at the person who seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him, Qing Nuo really sent a loyal dog to spy on him, secretly estimating the strength of the other party and himself in his heart, if he fought, he didn't seem to be able to take any advantage.
"Where's Big Brother Qing?" Leng Xianning asked with a smile, but how did that smile make people feel ill-intentioned.
