Chapter 123: Sauvignon Blanc

Previous Chapter

"What's going on?"

Xiao Ling anxiously looked at the two who were fighting fiercely, and wanted to step forward to persuade him to fight, but was stopped by Yun An beside him.

"Yun'an, why are you stunned, hurry up and persuade them."

Yun An glanced at the two people who were facing each other with fists and feet, and his tone was unwavering:

"I can't persuade you."

“……”

Xiao Ling turned his head to look at Yun An as if he had nothing to do with himself, and he was very helpless.

But after a while, Ye Sili also rushed over when he heard the sound.

She looked at the two people who were scuffling together, and reprimanded loudly:

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly, Gu Liwu and Mu Jiufeng were both stunned, and they both withdrew their hands.

Mu Jiufeng looked at Gu Liwu angrily:

"Gu Liwu, do you dare to come here?!"

He didn't pursue the abandonment of the marriage for the time being, but now Gu Liwu actually led troops to surround the Yugong Mansion and slashed the prince Yu!

Mu Jiufeng said sadly and indignantly: "Lord Yu treats you well." ”

In the face of Mu Jiufeng's accusation, Gu Liwu was powerless to refute.

After being silent for a long time, he tried his best to move his gaze to Ye Sili who was not far away.

The two eyes met, and they were clearly close at hand, but they seemed to be separated by thousands of rivers and mountains.

He looked at her, full of self-reproach.

After all, Ye Sili opened his mouth with a trembling voice:

"Why are you here?"

Gu Li's eyes were red, a little overwhelmed, and he choked slightly in his throat:

"I heard you woke up, I'll come to see you."

In the past few days, he has often secretly come to visit her, but whenever he wants to get closer, he is timid for no reason.

Tears rolled in his eyes, and Ye Sili said calmly:

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

Seeing her calm expression, Gu Liwei was a little relieved, and thought for a while: "Ah Li, I can explain it to you." ”

He tentatively walked towards her, and after seeing her steps back again and again, Gu Liwu stopped walking.

"No, you don't." Ye Sili held back her tears, took a deep breath, and looked at the person in front of her:

"Ah Wei, I know that you have a lot of helplessness and suffering."

If his grandfather was unwilling, how could Ah Wei easily lead his troops to break into Yugong's Mansion?

If my grandfather didn't want to, how could the guards in the palace be captured that day?

So, all this was planned by my grandfather a long time ago......

Ye Sili's eyelashes trembled slightly, and crystal tears fell.

"But Ah Worry, I watched my grandfather die under your Qingyu sword, how do you want me to let go?"

The weather after the rain was always foggy, and she always felt inexplicably illusory when she looked at the people in front of her.

It turned out that she already knew the reason, Gu Li's eyes were wet with worry, and she let the tears slip down.

The front yard was wide, and the two of them were separated by a distance of half a life.

Gu Liwei stood alone on the opposite side of them, thin and lonely.

"I'm sorry......" Tears fell to the ground, and he looked at Ye Sili at a loss.

Ye Sili's heart was so depressed that she was about to suffocate.

As soon as he was about to speak, a series of tears rolled down his cheeks like pearls with broken threads.

She looked greedily at the person in front of her, her eyes sad and painful.

"I'm sorry."

She said.

Tears were out of control like a river that had opened the floodgates, she quickly turned her back to Gu Liwei, lowered her head and bit her lip and sobbed silently.

I'm sorry, you didn't do anything wrong, but the Yugong Mansion can't stand you, and I can't stand you......

Everything you did was to protect the Yugong Mansion, but now it is difficult for me to face you.

Ah Worry, it's always been the Yugong Mansion that can't stand you......

Gu Liwu stood in place, looking at Ye Sili's silently sobbing back, his heart tightened.

For a long time, he tried to calm down, looked at her back, and said slowly:

"I know you don't want to see me, so I've taken care of the marriage."

"Yugong Mansion is safe now, you can take care of yourself in the future."

Ye Sili's body was slightly stunned, and he continued:

"I will leave Da Zhou in a few days and go to Liang Kingdom, this is far away from the mountains and rivers, you don't have to deliberately avoid me in the future."

Gu Li looked at Ye Sili's back with a wistful gaze, and reluctantly turned to leave.

After knowing that he was leaving, Ye Sili turned around, and there were tears on his face.

After such a toss, Ye Sili only felt physically and mentally exhausted.

Mu Jiufeng and Xiao Ling consciously left first.

Out of the Yugong Mansion, Xiao Ling walked beside Mu Jiufeng with his head down.

"Nine Winds." She wanted to speak, but she stopped.

Mu Jiufeng waited for her next in confusion.

After a while, Xiao Ling stood still, looked up at him, and asked, "What are you going to do in the future?" ”

"Huh?" Mu Jiufeng didn't seem to understand her words, and replied confusedly:

"I didn't plan to do anything, now that Sili has been hit hard, I have to accompany her first."

Xiao Ling's heart sank slightly, and he smiled: "Indeed, Sili needs to be taken care of now." ”

"But what if she doesn't need you anymore? Do you have any other plans? ”

I don't need ......

Mu Jiufeng had a wry smile on his face: "If one day she doesn't need me to take care of her, then ......"

He took a deep breath, sorted out his tone, and said chicly:

"Then the boy will go to make a career and do a great career."

Mu Jiufeng saw that her face was not very good, leaned over and tilted his head and asked:

"What's the matter?"

"It's fine."

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, a decree of harmony came out in the palace.

Xiao Yu rushed into the Thousand Spirits Palace.

"Who told you to agree to kiss?"

Xiao Ling was slowly boiling tea in the courtyard, and when he saw Xiao Yu coming, he poured him a cup of hot tea.

"Fourth brother, you're here."

Xiao Yu didn't take her tea, stood beside her, and asked:

"Who allowed you to agree and kiss?"

Xiao Ling put down the teacup and stretched out his hand to pull him to sit down.

Xiao Yu was so angry that he didn't want to pay attention to her, but in the end, he couldn't resist her, sat beside her, and suppressed his anger:

"Xiao Ling, didn't you say you didn't want to be trapped in the palace for the rest of your life? If you marry Chu Qing, there will be no possibility of freedom. ”

Xiao Ling tugged on Xiao Yu's sleeve and said in a soft tone:

"Fourth brother, that's what I said when I was young and ignorant, who doesn't like wealth and glory? Besides, if I really let me live a wandering life out of the palace, where can I eat your sister? ”

Xiao Yu held her shoulders and let Xiao Ling face him directly, not giving her the slightest chance to dodge, her expression was solemn, but her words were full of distress:

"Xiao Ling, court battles should not allow your daughter's family to be sacrificed."

"Xiaoling, can you wait for the fourth brother? The fourth brother will definitely protect you. ”

Xiao Ling moistened his eyes, pursed his mouth aggrievedly, held back his tears, and said solemnly:

"Fourth brother, although I am a daughter's family, I am also the princess of Da Zhou, I know the responsibility behind eating the world and worshipping."

Now Emperor Yuan of Zhou is seriously ill, and the Great Zhou is in constant civil turmoil.

And not long after Liang Guo Chuqing ascended the throne, it was just when she needed to stand up, and between peace and war, where could she call the shots?

December 31, 19th year of Xining.

It's Chinese New Year's Eve.

It is also the day of Xiao Ling's harmony.

At Xiao Ling's request, Mu Jiufeng, as an envoy of the Great Zhou, personally escorted the team.

The team left the capital in a mighty way, but it was not as lively as the lights of thousands of homes.

The people in the city were busy preparing the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and no one cared who the princess who went to make peace with them to protect their safety was.

The team rushed to the post station before dark.

Yun An found Xiao Ling sitting alone by the fire in the backyard.

"Princess." Yun An stepped forward and handed over the water bladder.

Xiao Ling reached out and took the water bladder, and patted his side again, "Just sit with me for a while." ”

She opened the water bladder and took a small sip, and said in surprise: "It's still hot?" ”

It's cold in winter and the road is long, so it's not too bad to have a mouthful of hot water to warm your stomach.

She took a few more sips.

Yun An sat beside her, silently adding firewood to the fire.

Xiao Ling thought about the bumpy road and sighed:

"Why do you think you're doing this?"

She picked up the wooden branch on the ground, "I have already discussed with the fourth brother, after I leave, you will stay with my fourth brother, and you will not have to suffer this crime." ”

Xiao Ling threw the wooden branch into the fire, "My fourth brother is very good, I can rest assured if you stay by his side." ”

Yun An didn't respond, Xiao Ling turned his head to look at him, and said helplessly:

"It's a pity that you are too strong, and you have to suffer with me."

Yun An's eyes met her, and there was some emotion in his eyes that Xiao Ling couldn't understand.

He said seriously: "Wherever you go, I will go." ”

Look, look, it's still this tough temper.

Xiao Ling sighed helplessly, and then suddenly patted Yun An's shoulder from behind.

A bracelet carved in the shape of a rabbit looms on her wrist.

She solemnly patted Yun An on the shoulder and promised him:

"Don't worry, I'll cover you in the future."

Chinese New Year's Eve, reunion night.

But now they are getting farther and farther away from their homeland, and there is no family to reunite, only the fire in front of them and the inseparable each other.

In June of the twentieth year of Xining, Emperor Zhou Yuan died, and in the same month, the second prince Xiao Feng died of a vicious disease, and the fourth prince Xiao Yu ascended the throne in the following month, and the year name was changed to "Xuanjing".

In the second year of Xuanjing, Mu Jiufeng recovered Xirong and won a great victory.

The whole country celebrates.

"Princess, the Nine Winds Princesses sent someone to spread the word that he won't be coming back for the New Year this year, but he still prepared a gift for you as usual." Twilight Chun took a letter and entered the Yusheng Temple.

Ye Sili sat on the swing in the courtyard and swayed slowly, and he had long been accustomed to saying "um".

From sunrise to sunset, Ye Sili sat alone on the swing, rarely speaking.

The night breeze was light, and the sweetness of osmanthus overflowed the entire Yusheng Courtyard and floated outside the wall.

Ye Sili's gaze fell on the cinnabar osmanthus in the courtyard and looked at it quietly for a long time.

Tonight, when the moon was in the sky, she took out the piccolo she carried with her and played it slowly.

The sound of the flute is melodious and sorrowful, as if it slowly tells endless sorrow and longing.

Under the moonlit sky, there is the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, the melodious sound of the flute, and the endless sadness of the girl.

Under the bright moonlight, Ye Sili held the jade flute in his hand and danced lightly.

The night was silent, and she was the only one dancing.

Her movements were slow, her expression darkened, and she looked more and more sad.

Suddenly, her feet sped up, her posture flew up, the corners of her skirt fluttered, and she moved with the wind.

There was no flute accompaniment, and the rhythm of her feet was not bad at all.

She stepped on the moonlight, her body was soft, and her slender jade fingers wanted to hold the moonlight.

It's a pity that the moonlight is ethereal, like the past dissipates with the wind, and cannot be touched.

At the end of the dance, she stood in place, looking around hesitantly......

The person who stood under the osmanthus tree and praised her for her beautiful dancing is now gone.

She sat down on the ground, looking around helplessly.

In December of the same year, it was rumored that the third prince of Daliang resigned from his official position and left the court.

For a time the people were divided, but no one knew where he was going.

On the Chinese New Year's Eve of the second year of Xuanjing, two people rode horses to the outside of Kyoto City in Dazhou.

"Childe, we're finally back."
