Chapter 244: Ah Yan, the lonely woman is a cautious eye
Shang Yan carefully groomed and carefully dressed up and went to the Danyang Palace.
Uncle Wang and Shang Yan are also old acquaintances, Shang Yan saw Uncle Wang coming over and smiled: "I haven't seen you for a long time, how is Uncle Wang's health?" ”
Uncle Wang shook his head again and again, "Thanks to you, it's okay." ”
Shang Yan looked at the high earthen platform behind Uncle Wang, "Sikong Yan is here?" ”
"In the temple."
"Can you see each other?"
Uncle Wang hesitated for a moment, "Stay down." ”
Sang-yeon politely bowed her head and waited there.
Uncle Wang went for a long time before coming back, and took Shang Yan to the earthen platform.
Shang Yan looked at the guards standing on both sides of the earth platform as she walked, and was secretly shocked in her heart: I don't want the guards here to be stricter than those in the palace.
Uncle Wang stopped outside the palace gate and called in a low voice: "King, the noble girl Shangyan has arrived." ”
"Got it." A low male voice came from inside the hall, and Shang Yeon's heart thumped.
She hadn't heard this familiar voice in years.
In the past, when she was in the palace, whenever she was bullied, she would always secretly run to Sikong Yanfei to cry, although he would never comfort the woman, but she would sit there quietly and cry.
It wasn't until she turned all her worries into tears and cried that she was sent away.
Shang Yan walked into the hall elegantly.
Sikong Yan sat behind the couch and looked down at the bamboo slips in his hand.
"Sikong Yan ......," Shang Yan called softly.
Sikong Yan's body stagnated slightly, and this title made him suddenly think that Hanyue was still by his side.
When he raised his head, he found a noble girl with thin eyes and thick eyebrows standing in front of him.
"It's you." Sikong Yan sighed.
A hint of surprise flashed in Shang Yan's eyes: who did he think she was?
Sikong Yanfei looked down at the bamboo slip again, "Ah Yan has worked hard all the way. ”
Hearing this familiar name, Shang Yan smiled.
It turned out that he had not forgotten her either.
"It's not hard, Ayan is as sweet as a meal." She whispered.
Sikong Yanfei didn't hear what she was saying, and continued: "You first grieve in the post house for a few days, and then arrange it when the envoys in the palace are gone." ”
"Okay." Shang Yan responded, and stood for a while, but saw Sikong Yanfei concentrating on annotating the bamboo slips, and had no intention of talking to her again.
Shang Yan looked left and right, and saw that the small stove on the side had long been extinguished, and the wine utensils were piled aside, obviously there was no one here to come in to serve.
Shang Yan rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward to light a small stove and boil the wine carefully.
When the aroma of wine wafted up, Sikong Yanfei suddenly said, "Yue, pour some for Gu first, I'm a little thirsty." ”
Shang Yan's body stiffened, and she looked up at Sikong Yanfei in disbelief.
Sikong Yanfei still lowered her head and stretched out one hand towards her.
Shang Yan finally held back the trembling of her lips, carefully poured the bottle of wine and handed it to him.
Sikong Yanfei seemed to have only reacted when he took the wine bottle, and his expression softened when he looked at Shang Yan, "There is Lao Ayan." ”
Shang Yan smiled bitterly, "It's cold outside, why don't you have anyone to serve here, not even a person who cooks wine." ”
Sikong Yan took a sip of wine, "It's better to be careful with what you enter." ”
When he was in the palace, he was poisoned many times, and several times she thought that he couldn't survive, and everyone thought that he would survive.
"You just called me...... ...... Moon" Sang-yeon tried to make her smile look sincere, "Does Lady Moon often cook wine for you?" ”
Sikong Yanfei smiled lowly, noncommittal.
But the warmth on his face made Shang Yan's heart feel traumatic.
It was the first time she had seen such a warm expression, even if he had treated him differently before, he had never shown this kind of expression.
It is a smile that can only be had when a person relaxes his guard and opens his heart to his beloved.
Satisfying, pleasant.
"I really envy Mrs. Moon." Shang Yan only felt that her heart was trembling, "In the future, I will treat her as a good sister and will not let you worry." ”
The smile on Sikong Yanfei's face disappeared in an instant.
"Ayan."
"Yes." Sang-yeon looked at him expectantly.
"You don't have to marry Lone."
The wine utensils in Shang Yeon's hands spilled out at once, and the hot liquor dripped onto her fingers, leaving a few hot marks on the back of her hand.
She inhaled and blew on her fingers.
Sikong Yan looked at her steadily, unmoved, "Ah Yan, after the envoy leaves, Lone will give you a fiefdom, when you have a thousand tilts of fertile land, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you can also recruit wise men and loyal ministers to protect you, and you are no longer afraid of people bullying you, okay?" ”
Sikong Yanfei's tone was familiar to her.
It sounded like he was asking for her opinion, but in reality, it was his decision.
"You...... You don't want to marry me? She asked in a trembling voice, "Or is it because of that Tsukihime?" ”
Sikong Yanfei was silent and did not answer.
"Sikong Yanfei, I won't take anything from her." She slowly put the wine utensils in her hand on a few cases, and gently filled his wine bottle with wine, "If you want to spoil her, pet her, I won't compete with her for anything, I will stay in the back house quietly, and when you think of me, you can come and see me...... That's enough for me. She looked at him stupidly, her eyes full of anticipation and watery tenderness.
"Sikong Yanfei, I don't want much, never much." She choked.
Sikong Yanfei was still silent, quietly looking at Shang Yan.
Shang Yan saw that he refused to speak, so she cautiously leaned over, knelt beside him, and said softly: "I still remember that in the palace before, when I could rarely sleep well at night, I asked you, if you can escape one day, will you protect me, how do you respond to me?" ”
Sikong Yan's crimson eyes turned, "Lone will protect you." ”
Shang Yan smiled shyly, "I don't want much, I just want you to protect me." ”
"You are in a fiefdom, and Lone can protect you." Sikong Yan said lightly.
That's different!
Shang Yan hid the resentment that was about to erupt in her heart.
"Yan Fei...... How can you do this to me...... How can you be so ruthless...... "Tears fell in strings, dripping down on her knees.
Sikong Yan sighed silently, "The emperor ordered you to marry, it is nothing more than to use you to appease Yu Gu, it is not easy for you to escape from that place, you will live in the fiefdom for two years, and when Gu Xun has the opportunity to call you sick, you can find a good family to marry." ”
Shang Yeon stared at her teary eyes, good family? Except for Sikong Yanfei, she doesn't know who can be called a good person.
Since she was a child, she has been looking forward to marrying him one day, but she didn't expect that her dream would come true soon, but what did he tell him to ask her to find someone else?
"Are you afraid that Tsukihime will be angry?" Shang Yan wiped her tears, "I won't embarrass you, if she wants to be the main room, then let her be the main room, even if there is the emperor's will, you can call me virtuous and unworthy of your position...... As long as you can keep me by your side......"
If there were outsiders in the temple at this time, they would be moved by these words.
Beauty tears, sad feelings, even hard-hearted people will be moved when they hear this.
can obviously be the main room, but she is willing to give way, just to stay by her beloved's side, who can bear to refuse such a woman?
Shang Yan looked at Sikong Yan with teary eyes, and her eyes suddenly widened.
The corners of Sikong Yan's lips actually brought a bitter smile of self-deprecation, "Ah Yan, there is only this matter, and I can't respond to it." ”
"For ...... Why? ”
"Moon...... She's a careful-eyed woman. The corners of Sikong Yan's lips were slightly hooked, and he said slowly: "She will be jealous, she will lose her temper with Lone, and Lone can't bear to hurt her." ”
Shang Yan was completely stunned.
Is this really commonplace? Was it the ruthless and cold-blooded man she had ever known, who had no mercy for all women?
