Chapter Twenty-Seven: Willow Is Sick
After Ji Chang left, Tang Huan led me to his room and spent a whole hour telling me a story. After he finished speaking, I realized that Princess Zhaowen's extraordinary patience was completely honed by him.
To put it simply, he and I were both orphans, and we were both adopted by a Tang surnamed Orion in Tongshan, and he became my elder brother, as for the Orion who adopted us, because he met a black blind man when he was hunting in the mountains in the early years, he never came back from the mountains. And the cliff I fell down was just a fault on the western slope of Tongshan.
After Tang Huan finished speaking, I was silent for a long time, he didn't make such a simple thing clear before, which made me toss and turn for so long, and I once wishfully thought that I was a tassel. Of course, it's a good thing for me not to be tassels, and if I were her, I really don't know how to face Vero.
At the end of April, the city was full of tassel trees, and the whole king seemed to be caged in a white snowy scene. I waited for a long time, and finally I was waiting for the news of Willow's return to the city.
On the top of the hundred-foot city tower, I stood in the wind in a fiery red dress. With his coat fluttering, I saw that Villeroze's horse galloped all the way into the city gate, and he was closely followed by a dozen guards, several horses galloped together, raising a cloud of dust, and I rushed down the tower, and Willow's steed galloped in front of me, and after a moment neighed and raised its front hooves. Looking back, Willow's dark figure melted into the mist and floated in front of me.
"I ......" slightly opened her lips, and she was instantly covered by a coldness.
"I know, you're Tang Le." Willow whispered in my ear, and with just this sentence, my heart was suddenly stirred up with layers of ripples, and I couldn't calm down for a long time.
"You don't blame me for pretending to be a tassel to lie to you? Have you forgiven me? He put his hands on his shoulders and looked at him in disbelief.
A misty glow flashed in Vero's long narrow eyes, and the corners of her pale lips rose, and before I could react, she picked me up on the horse's back and went straight back to the Yiwang Palace.
The moon dew was faint, the lights were on, and the Yeyang Palace was unusually quiet, and Willow carried me all the way back to the Jingxuan Palace.
Lying on the comfortable stepping bed, I looked sideways at him sitting on the edge of the bed with a complicated expression, I had a lot of questions in my heart, but after seeing him, I forgot all the questions I wanted to ask.
"Mu Yuan came to the palace to look for you a few days ago, and I rushed to Lou Kingdom, so I only let Li Zesheng greet her." Willow took off his dusty robe and tossed it aside.
"Hmm, I saw them when I came, I heard them say that you went to Lou Kingdom to save me, Mu Xian is really sinister, the lotus I told you before was he planted in the palace." I sat up and swept around his broad back, "How did you come back unscathed?" ”
Wei Luo's shoulders trembled slightly, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "I am smarter than Mu Xian...... You just said them? Who else is there besides Mu Kite? ”
"Didn't you see my brother, he came here with Princess Zhaowen?" I scratched my head very strangely, Tang Huan really hated Wei Luo, I used to say that Wei Luo was not, but now I don't want to see him.
"I have time to invite them into the palace, you have been in the palace for so long, and I haven't seen your family yet." After saying that, he got up and called the maid to prepare the bath bucket and hot water, and then turned to me and said, "How about bathing in the room?" ”
My hand holding my chin was a little numb, so I changed my position and waved my free hand in the air, and the numbness faded slightly.
"Crazy with joy?" Willow stared at my arm dancing in the air, a look of surprise.
Bai glanced at him, jumped off the bed, and finally couldn't help but ask the words that had been pressed in his heart for a long time but had not been asked: "Aren't you looking for tassels?" ”
Willow's back stiffened in front of Changji, and he was silent for about a moment before he said indifferently: "Maybe she's dead." ”
"What if she hadn't died and would have come back to you one day?" I pressed in front of him step by step, looking at his dodging gaze, and there was a chill in my heart.
I thought he accepted me, I thought he let her go......
"Do you have to be so serious? I don't know what to do, you and the tassel give me the same feeling, you just have different names, weishenme wants me to distinguish so clearly? Willow's stiff body arched slightly, his hands propped on the long table, and his face turned away in pain.
"Am I more serious? Then you mean you've never been serious about your feelings for me, right? Clenching the cuffs tightly, the slightly long nails were deeply embedded in the palms, and he didn't feel the pain: "It's the same with the tassels, you just feel indebted to her, what you really care about is your own feelings!" ”
Wei Luo suddenly lowered his head and let out a wry smile, and after a while, he said in a muffled voice: "Go back to your Jade Shu Palace, the widow doesn't want to see you!" ”
The maids entered the room with bathing supplies, and when they saw that the atmosphere was not right, they put down their things and quickly withdrew. Willow glanced at what was resting on the table, raised his foot and kicked it over, the basket of petals whizzing across my cheeks, and the cold pain sank little by little with the fluttering petals.
"Before I fell in love with you, I was willing to be a stand-in; After falling in love with you, I will never be a stand-in again......" Lifting the fiery red sleeves, wiping the blood from his face, he walked out.
Willow froze in place, not stopping me. Before stepping out of the palace gate, he only heard a messy noise from the Jingxuan Palace, accompanied by the heart-rending cough of Willow.
For the whole night, I stood in the hexagonal pavilion of Yushu Palace in a daze. Am I being too greedy? Maybe that tassel is really dead, and it will never appear again, and I will only be the only one in Vero's heart in the future, and even then, can't it?
There was a crisp jingle from far and near, and I looked down to see a snow-white cotton ball at my feet. Leaned over and hugged Huanhuan into his arms, he hadn't seen him for a long time, but Willow took good care of it, and he had a copper bell tied to his furry neck. The faint light shone on its oily and slippery fur, and I couldn't help but raise my hand and smooth it, and then smooth it down a handful of white fur.
Dogs shed in spring, how did I forget......
I stood in the gazebo all night with Huanhuan in my arms, but I still didn't understand anything. On the way back to Yuxuan Pavilion, I saw Ni Meng wrapped in green clothes and stepping into the Yushu Palace in the morning light.
put Huanhuan on the ground in his hand, stroked the dog hair sticking to his body, and greeted him. Ni Meng saw my face clearly, covered her mouth and took a breath, and then hurriedly pulled me into Yuxuan Pavilion, and hurriedly turned out the ointment for me to rub.
"As soon as I entered the palace today, I heard that Jun Shang was sick, and you lived back in Yushu Palace, looking at your sad face, I knew that you must have been angry with Jun Shang yesterday." Ni Meng sighed while helping me apply the ointment.
"Willow is sick?" I grabbed her wrist and asked in surprise.
Ni Meng nodded: "I went to Yeyang Palace first, it was a mess, the Queen Mother and Queen Mother were all blocked out of the Jingxuan Palace, and the king said that no one would be seen, and the imperial doctor would not be allowed to go in to see." ”
I pulled the corner of Ni Meng's clothes and pulled it, and said in a low voice: "You go back to Yeyang Palace to help me inquire." ”
"Sister Le, if you are really worried about your majesty, it is better to go there in person." Ni Meng looked at me in embarrassment and took the ointment back in his hand.
He was so angry with me last night, wouldn't it be added to the fire if I went to see him again?
