Chapter 142: Mei
Zhao Qingjin in front of him, skinny and skinny due to long-term illness, his eyes are sunken, how can he still have the appearance of Zhong Lingyuxiu, the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion.
Zhao Qingjin snorted, "You're not interested now, but you used to want to know." β
"In those days, he first took me on a tour of the mountains and rivers during the day, happily told me this and that, and at night he was drunk, calling your name over and over again on me."
"The day before your execution, he did not come to me, so I went to him. He was alone in the study, holding a dagger and cutting his arm one by one, he engraved your name on his arm, and then cried and said to me, Tiange is about to die, what should I do if I still can't let go. β
"He's afraid, you know? He is afraid that he will never forget you, and he will have to die for you in the end. β
Chu Tiange was stunned, thinking of the dense scratches on his arm, and thinking of Li Yunlin, who later committed suicide under the plane tree in the courtyard of his boudoir, and his heart ached.
Zhao Qingjin smiled sadly, "Finally, you are a demon who can come back from the dead." On that day, the whole imperial city was panicked, but I was happy, I knew that Li Yunlin would be fine. β
"I can't believe it when they suddenly say he killed you, but I'm glad he finally let go. Until...... It wasn't until you weren't dead that I realized how he could have killed you, never ......"
Chu Tiange sighed, "I don't understand you, Zhao Qingjin, since you want to redeem me for him now, why did you let me see you happy in the first place?" β
Zhao Qingjin shed two lines of tears sadly.
"Because I didn't know Matsutsuki was you, I thought it was just a stand-in...... Chu Tiange, even if he hurt me deeply, I still remember his sad and desperate look when he read your name, I can't bear it, I hope he gets his wish, it is I who ruined his happiness......"
Chu Tiange took a deep breath to ease the discomfort in his heart, "It's not you who ruined it." It's also a pity that I never loved him as much as you did. β
-
Li Yunlin walked with her one after another, not knowing how to speak, and did not dare to walk to her side.
Chu Tiange suddenly stopped and looked at the other side of the pond, "Look, the plum blossoms are blooming." β
Li Yunlin was slightly stunned, and looked at her gaze, the shore dotted with clear plum blossoms was very beautiful to look at.
But he was not in the mood to appreciate it, so he just echoed, "Well, the plum blossoms are blooming." β
"When I possessed Pei Xueji, we went to the plum garden, remember?" Her eyebrows were faint, and she couldn't see joy or anger.
"Remember, that was the first time I forcibly kissed you."
Li Yunlin said softly, "Because I was annoyed, you actually let Li Yanxiao into your room, and you were so cold to me." You said at the time that there are many women who like me, but it won't be you. So you bit my mouth, but I still won't let go. β
Chu Tiange smiled, "I remember it so clearly." I also remember that I was very annoyed at the beginning, annoyed why did you kiss Pei Xueji, and then I actually thought about this question for a long time, thinking about when you fell in love with Pei Xueji. β
Li Yunlin hurriedly said: "I already knew it was you, and I have never had a relationship between men and women for Pei Xueji......
Chu Tiange turned to look at him, Li Yunlin seemed to have seen her eyes like this for a long time, and it was not covered with a layer of fog like before.
"I didn't wait for the answer I wanted when I needed your explanation the most," she said. Yunlin, I wanted to face you with a mask all the time, but I suddenly couldn't bear it, I wanted to make it clear to you......"
Li Yunlin stretched out his hand and lightly covered her mouth, blocking her next words, his eyes trembling slightly.
"Don't say it, there are some things I've heard you say countless times, and there's no need to repeat them again. You know me, I'm not a good person, don't reason with me. β
Chu Tiange nodded.
Li Yunlin took away his hand and asked worriedly, "What did Zhao Qingjin say?" β
Chu Tiange said frankly, "She told me that you tried to forget me, but there was no success, and she also said that you carved my name on your arm. Yunlin, you are really naΓ―ve. β
Li Yunlin's ears were slightly hot, and the burn burned to his cheeks, he subconsciously held the arm with his hand, avoided his gaze and said, "Yes, it's so naΓ―ve." I might as well run to you and say I love you in front of all the people who are watching the execution. Anyway, I won't be so upset. β
Chu Tiange looked at him and said, "I want to tell you that Zhao Qingjin really loves you." She deserves to be nice to her. β
Li Yunlin was stunned, and all the joy was washed away at once.
He smiled bitterly and looked at the plum blossoms on the other side, "I miss that woman so much, she said domineeringly that I must only love her, and I can only be good to her." I actually like her domineering very much, and I also want the relationship of a couple for the rest of my life......"
"But we're not children anymore," Chu Tiange said softly.
Li Yunlin took her to the dormitory, "Well, it's not a child, you still come out and run around." Go back to confinement and be nice. β
-
Before you know it, the weather is gradually warming up, and it is the season of peach blossoms.
Since Li Yunlin decided to establish Chu Tiange as the leader of the public, she has lived in Fengyi Palace, where the Queen Mother used to live.
Chu Tiange came back from visiting the Imperial Garden, and saw Li Yunlin bending over, teasing her daughter in the cradle with a rattle.
His daughter smiled at him, and his eyebrows were as gentle as his father, without any flaws.
"Xiao Yun'er, you tell your father, is the queen mother happy today?"
Xiao Lingyun still giggled, and her laughter was crisp and good.
Li Yunlin's lips smiled even deeper, "That's happy, come, my father hugs." β
He picked up Xiao Lingyun and nestled it in the crook of his arm skillfully, shaking it gently.
Every time he was close to his daughter, Chu Tiange's heartstrings were always tight, in order to dispel his harmful heart, Chu Tiange acquiesced to his self-proclaimed father, and tacitly agreed that he was the child of the two of them.
After a long time, he seemed to have forgotten the facts, and really regarded himself as his own father, but Chu Tiange never dared to relax.
Li Yunlin coaxed Xiao Lingyun to sleep in his arms, looked at it softly for a while, and said to Tiange, "Yun'er is like you in the past, you love to laugh very much." Tong'er doesn't like to laugh so much, Tong'er is always serious, like a little adult. β
Chu Tiange said embarrassedly: "Now I often smile at you." β
Li Yunlin carefully put Ling Yun back into the cradle, shook it gently for a while, and then turned to Tiange and said, "You don't know, how beautiful you used to smile in the past." β
Chu Tiange was even more embarrassed, "I don't know." β
She was suddenly a little worried, Li Yunlin saw that her daughter was smiling beautifully, and she wouldn't think about her daughter.
She hurriedly grabbed Li Yunlin's wrist and pulled him out, "The peach blossoms are blooming, let's go and have a look." β
Li Yunlin watched blankly as she took the initiative to hold his wrist, such a scene was too far away for him, and he thought that there would never be such a day again in his life.
His mood became cheerful little by little along with the road under his feet.
