Eighth, step by step

The second prince thought for a while and said, "Let's do something different." I heard that you are from the Central Plains, sing your song. Yu Yao collapsed for a while, saying that it was from the Central Plains, but what song was sung in the Central Plains at that time, how do I know? But he hasn't heard of it anyway, so let's just talk nonsense, Mengren.

For Yu Yao, singing is a piece of cake. She thought for a moment and opened her mouth to sing "Goodbye, Arctic Snow". The second prince, who had never heard such a novel tune, slowly sat up straight from the couch, looking straight at Yu Yao, who was singing emotionally with his eyes closed, and couldn't leave half a point anymore. Yu Yao sang this song, and her inner thoughts were full of thoughts: I should have laughed for you, cried for you, and was afraid of missing out on you. The moment we choose to break up, what do we think. Will it be heartbeat, or silent, if we meet again in our dreams, the North Pole is still snowing, can we shake your hand again. Lin Xiangdi, where are you at this moment, and when can we meet again in this lonely world?

Finish singing a song. The second prince didn't wake up from the song for a long time, and after a long time, he whispered, "One more song." ”

It was supposed to be Yu Yao's saddest night, but it turned into a jukebox, as if singing at a KTV night, singing all night. At the end of the singing, Yu Yao's voice began to be hoarse, and the second prince personally poured a bowl of water for Yu Yao, and said to her gently: "It turns out that the music of the Central Plains is so moving, and the women of the Central Plains are also so moving." ”

When the sky was white, the second prince got up and walked out the door. When he was about to go out, he said to Yu Yao, "Take a good rest." Without looking back, he walked out of the main room.

Yu Yao, who was tired from nervousness and singing all night, was left standing in the room.

The second prince walked into the small courtyard where Yu Yao lived in the evening, and everyone followed in clusters, but was stopped by the second prince.

After more than a year of contact, Yu Yao has become the person on the tip of his heart, singing, dancing and doing everything, serving himself is also first-class intimate, and the most important thing is that Yu Yao seems to be a weak woman, but she is well versed in the scheming within the palace walls. The second prince knows that she doesn't like the palace people to wait around her, she seems to be lively and happy, she prefers to be quiet, and the second prince doesn't care, as long as she is happy, anything can do.

Yu Yao had already asked people to set up the meal and wait in the room.

This year, her residence was moved from the hut where eight people lived together to a small courtyard of her own, but after the second prince went a few times, he thought the small courtyard was shabby, so he asked Yu Yao to pick a courtyard by himself, and when he was wandering with the second prince one day, Yu Yao accidentally found this quaint courtyard, the pear blossoms in the courtyard were flourishing, and the branches and vines were sticking out of the wall, with a bit of poetry, Yu Yao asked the second prince for this small courtyard. Although this small courtyard is still far away from the second prince's bedroom, the second prince doesn't mind, because this place has almost become a gathering place for his concubines.

The frequents were several women who had been sent to the palace at about the same time. At first, they were also full of jealousy, but they didn't expect that Yu Yao, who flew up to the branches in a moment, did not forget them, first sent a steady stream of all kinds of small gifts and small jewelry, secretly taught them the songs they had sung, and recommended the sisters to the second prince in a timely manner. Several sisters who were sympathetic to the same disease admired Yu Yao even more. In this small courtyard where flowers are in full bloom, there are more people coming and going, and the second prince likes this feeling of flowers becoming more and more charming.

The second prince looked at the wine and food on the table and beckoned Yu Yao to sit down and eat together. Yu Yao sat down lightly opposite the second prince and used delicate silver chopsticks to prepare vegetables for him. The second prince also ate quietly, and when he was halfway through eating, he wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said to Yu Yao, "Tomorrow I will leave for the capital." This time, I want you to go with me. ”

Yu Yao smiled slightly, brought him the prepared tea and said, "The second prince needs me to do whatever he wants." ”

The second prince narrowed his eyes and said to her with a smile: "The king's illness has worsened again, and we may not come back if we go to the capital this time." ”

Yu Yao was like a fish in her throat, quickly calmed down her emotions, and still said with a polite smile that she had practiced in the 4S store: "The second prince went to visit Wang Shang on this trip because of the deep love between father and son. ”

The second prince said unappreciatively: "No, I'm going to wait for the throne!" ”

Yu Yao smiled bitterly in her heart: It's really a good mallet! The face has to be exquisite, who cares if the inside is black-hearted cotton? But she still kept smiling and said, "But the second prince still thinks of the king in his heart, isn't he?" When you see your seriously ill father, you should also express such affection, so that the king can pass away with the love of father and son, and isn't it better? ”

The second prince tilted his head and looked at Yu Yao.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty knew that the second prince wanted to usurp the throne, and the second prince was bent on waiting for the king to die, but he didn't understand, now that the king is going to die, what is the meaning of making these soups and waters? What's more, as the king's own son, he has rarely been pitied since he was a child. The eldest brother has been smart since he was a child, and the king has summoned dozens of capable people to teach the eldest brother, including students who speak the past and the present, those who are good at riding and shooting, the generals who are proficient in swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and the artists who are familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the eldest brother has naturally grown rapidly.

But when it was his turn, all the capable people who had taught his eldest brother had left the palace, and the king did not send anyone else to teach, but just casually pointed to two old gentlemen who spoke ancient to teach culture. The two old gentlemen couldn't stand his stubbornness, so they quit this drudgery early and went home to retire. In addition, in the war of the year, the king and his eldest brother led the army to fight everywhere, so they neglected to discipline him, and it became what he is now.

Seeing the confusion in the eyes of the second prince, Yu Yao slowly got up and walked to him, put her lips to her ear and said, "Although the king only has one son, but if the king is old and confused and passes on the throne to his uncles and nephews, the second prince will not have such a good life in the future, right?" The second prince should show the style of a king, the virtue of filial piety, and be respectful, so that the king can feel the affection of father and son when he is dying, doesn't it strengthen his confidence in the second prince in his heart? ”

The second prince was stunned and thought: Indeed. His uncles are all heroes who rode horses and fought with the king, and among the brothers who were of his own generation, there were also two or three who had been loved and praised by the king.

Yu Yao said softly again: "Second prince, after walking the road you want to take, you can walk the road you want to take, and no one can do it overnight." The salute must be done, and the word must be spoken. If the king saw that the second prince was so affectionate, he would naturally be very moved. ”

The second prince thought for a long time and said, "Then what if the king still doesn't like me?" ”

She smiled and said, "Second Prince, who in the world doesn't love their children? ”

The second prince suddenly realized, picked up the teacup and drank it all, and shouted: "Yu Yao, you are really my lucky general!" You're right, do what you say! Pack your things tonight and leave tomorrow morning! ”

When Yu Yao was the only one left in the room, she sat in a daze in front of the table full of leftovers, at this moment, she was still waiting for a news, this was the last ray of hope, her heart was full of expectation, and at the same time she was filled with fear.

More than a year ago, after she was taken away by that bastard red-eyed thief, she never saw Lin Xiangdi again, and later, after she had a confidant, she sent him to investigate and secretly visit everywhere to find Lin Xiangdi's whereabouts. Boss Mo, who had seen Lin Xiangdi in the end, insisted that Lin Xiangdi's banquet had not yet ended, so he left his house in a hurry, and there has been no news since. There was no longer a figure of him selling fairy mirrors in the bazaar.

The news reported by Uncle Li was that Lin Xiangdi had come to his house to look for Yu Yao, and a few days later he sent a lot of silver taels, and since then he has not been in contact with him, and he has not been seen again in Cixian City. That small courtyard has also been occupied by a few homeless people.

Yu Yao asked, "Is there anything you can find from the hut?" ”

The servant replied: "No, the homeless man said that the house was empty when he entered the house. ”

Yu Yao thought, Lin Xiangdi must have been looking for himself everywhere, so he took all the belongings away, but, Lin Xiangdi, Lin Xiangdi, where did you go to find me?

Someone knocked softly outside the door, three long and one short. It's the little guy who is looking for Lin Xiangdi who is back. She ran over to open the door, but unexpectedly, she tripped over her skirt, and she didn't care about the pain, got up and opened the door. The little guy stood with his hands down, and Yu Yao asked, "Did you find it?" ”

The little servant lowered his head and said, "Sister Yu, someone has seen the person you are looking for in Wenyuncheng, a small city eighty miles east of Cixian City, but it is said that he was dragged away by robbers. I arrived at Wenyun City, but I didn't hear any of the bandits, except that they made a living robbing passing merchants. The person you're looking for, to no avail. I don't know if it's already ......."

Yu Yao fell to the ground all of a sudden. When I go to the capital this time, I am afraid that I will be even more far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, and I am afraid that I will never have the opportunity to see each other again in this life. Lin Xiangdi, you will not die, you have read so many books, learned so much knowledge, and are so smart, you will definitely save the day. Promise me that you will live well wherever you are, and if there is fate, let us meet you where you came.

That night, like a long-planned farewell ceremony, the long-lost big fish once again slipped into Yu Yao's dream like a ghost. With tears streaming down her face, she stood by the water's edge and watched the big fish slowly rise into the air, shaking its beautiful tail. In the empty darkness, she asked, "Where are you?" Where is he? ”

Da Yu smiled mysteriously, like an ancient prophet, looking at Yu Yao's tears tenderly, and only after a long time did he speak: "Waiting, it is the first old man in life." ”

Yu Yao cried and said, "I just want to know, where is he?" ”

The big fish shook his head and said, "Wait, the end of the world is the place to return." ”

Yu Yao, who was awakened, found that she was really in tears. Wait, the big fish gives itself a hint with only two words: wait. What are you waiting for?

The next day, the horse team set off in a majestic way. The second prince rode a red high-headed horse and walked in front of the team, followed by several personal soldiers raised by the second prince, one of whom was the red-eyed thief who set up a game to deceive Yu Yao, and then there were more than a dozen beautifully decorated carriages, and the first one was the second prince's wife, Li Ruohong, the princess of Jieyang Kingdom. Jieyang country is only more than 400 miles away from Wuci country, between neighboring countries, Qianmo traffic, not to mention, this Jieyang country is weak, relying on Wuci country to be able to be preserved in the chaotic war, Jieyang King will dedicate his niece to Wuci country, relying on marriage to stabilize the relationship between the two countries. But this princess of Jieyang Kingdom is a big-chested, only flowery and moon-looking person, the second prince himself is arrogant and arrogant, I didn't expect to marry a wife who entered the door, more arrogant and unreasonable than him, if it weren't for the king's repeated orders not to bully the princess, he would have 100,000 reasons to divorce his wife.

The most intolerable thing for the second prince is that after the princess married into the palace, most of the concubines were thrown into the well by her for various reasons, beaten to death, and the second prince was heartbroken to death. However, the bones of the corpse thrown into the well are not cold, and new gifts are sent into the mansion, and there is still a long way to go before I can truly kill a hundred flowers after the flowers bloom.

After seeing Yu Yao one day, the second prince began to worry, afraid that this unruly work of Jieyang would stop throwing this talented and beautiful woman into the well. Unexpectedly, this worry was really unnecessary, one day when he went to Yu Yao's courtyard, he found Princess Jieyang sitting under the pear tree and talking and laughing with Yu Yao. He couldn't believe his eyes.

Princess Jieyang said to the second prince with a smile on her face: "The second prince is really stingy, why didn't such a good sister introduce me earlier?" The second prince sneered and didn't answer, he rarely saw Princess Jieyang smile so sweetly, worried that this was Princess Jieyang's sugar-coated cannonball. But she took Yu Yao's hand and said, "Sister Yu Yao, teach me more when you have time, you can talk, I'll leave first." ”

After all the princess's men and horses left, the second prince asked Yu Yao nervously: "What is the princess doing?" Didn't embarrass you, did you? ”

Yu Yao smiled and said lightly: "Don't worry, the second prince, Princess Jieyang is just here to chat with me." ”

The second prince is still not down-to-earth, and has sent someone to inquire about the news a few times, but it is indeed as Yu Yao said, the princess is just chatting with Yu Yao in the courtyard, and the princess is smiling, but she can't know its content. That content is only known to Princess Jieyang and Yu Yao. The second prince didn't come out of the two mouths several times, but Princess Jieyang became more and more cute.

The people around the second prince said: "This new Yu Meiren seems to have the ability to charm people. ”
