Chapter Seventy-Five: Responding to Requests
The red light reflects the long river, and the long river jade passes.
The disc is embedded in the starry night, and I am happy with the beauty.
The night of the imperial city is extremely beautiful.
The people of the imperial city are also extremely beautiful.
Xiao Yun stared sideways at Murong Qingcheng's face, watching Murong Qingcheng's smile and smile. He suddenly found that his heart seemed to be happy with her, sad with her, happy with her laughter, sad with her crying......
This is probably the so-called affection.
"Qingcheng and the princess can have such a happy childhood, which can be regarded as a good memory in life. Listening to Murong Qingcheng's narration, somehow, Xiao Yun's head exploded. But no matter how he recalls, the starting point of his memory is always only stuck on that day more than three years ago.
No, it seems like in a few days, it should be four years, right?
On that day, Princess Qingcheng first arrived in Chongqing.
On that day, Xiao Yun followed his father to appear in Yucheng.
That day, Xiao Yun saw Murong Qingcheng at first sight......
"Yes, but that's just a memory. The joy of the memory was suddenly gone, and the corners of the mouth that were slightly upturned upwards were slowly flattened unnaturally, and a crystal flashed in Murong Qingcheng's eyes again.
Regarding the changes in the royal family, Xiao Yun had not heard Luo Hu mention it on the way to Beijing with Luo Hu this time, not to mention Wang Er, a local gossip capable person of the Yanhua Empire.
Therefore, at this time, he couldn't find any nice words to comfort Murong Qingcheng.
He didn't know why Murong Qingcheng suddenly remembered that her father and mother were here, could it be that this was when he was touched by the scene and felt sad?
"I still remember that my father liked fishing, and when he was not busy with government affairs, his father often brought me to this riverside. Then he left me to dry and let me see how he got the bait, how he threw the hook, how he waited......"
Wiping his tears, Murong Qingcheng continued, but his tone seemed to be much calmer.
"And I was so active that I didn't like the bitter waiting and tastelessness of fishing, so I simply dug a mud pit and built an iron frame next to it, and when my father pulled up one, two, or even more big fish, we grilled the fish by the river and ate them. β
"Although the grilled fish is not as flavorful, flavorful, and flavorful as the meals made in the palace's imperial dining room, my father will eat it with relish every time, leaving a ground of fish bones. β
Saying this, even Xiao Yun drooled, and he had been busy all day, and he hadn't eaten anything decently.
I don't know when I will be lucky enough to be able to taste the art of grilled fish in Qingcheng? He thought happily in his heart, but then shook his head in his heart, what a noble status of Princess Qingcheng, it is still not whimsical.
"Every time spring comes, the spring water rises, and there are always many big fish that cannot be named swimming from the river into this moat. So every spring, my dad would bring me over in three days. β
Listening to Murong Qingcheng's narration, Xiao Yun really didn't know what to say, so he didn't just pour cold water on her and tell her that the past was over, right? This would only make Murong Qingcheng even more sad, and he couldn't bear it.
And Murong Qingcheng didn't care about Xiao Yun's silence at all, and continued to immerse herself in her own memories.
"When spring comes, my father will take me to fly kites on the riverbank, I still remember that the willow trees at that time were not as tall as they are now, and there were many people on the moat bank who came with their children to go out, cook, and fly kites. β
"Papier-mΓ’chΓ© butterflies, centipedes with teeth and claws, and all kinds of kites are slowly rising in the spring breeze. Whenever this happens, my father will say, "Orange, my father wants you to be healthy and grow up in the wind, and I don't want to affect you in everything......
Hearing this, Xiao Yun guessed that Murong Qingcheng's father must have predicted his own catastrophe a long time ago, otherwise he would not have hoped so much that his daughter could be plain and have been guiding his daughter Qingcheng to live such a dull life.
"Now that I think about it, my dad must have known that something was going to happen, and I didn't even notice it, I didn't know it at all...... Whining. β
At this point, Murong Qingcheng couldn't help but feel a little sad, and his words were full of self-blame and remorse.
Seeing that Murong Qingcheng was crying and wiping his tears, Xiao Yun felt uncomfortable in his heart, and persuaded: "Qingcheng, who can foresee this kind of thing? Ling Zun has always hoped that you can grow up happily, and it is precisely because he doesn't want you to be troubled by these things and work hard all day long." β
In a hurry, Xiao Yun couldn't care about the improper title.
"Light river lanterns, fish and grill fish, fly kites, think about these happy things, think about those happy memories......" Xiao Yun became more and more muffled, and in the end, even he couldn't hear what he was saying.
It's nice to have memories, it's not like me, a wild man who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Xiao Yun thought so in his heart, it seemed that he was very haunted by the memory he had lost before the age of twelve.
"Xiao, Yun?"
"Xiao Yun. β
"Xiao Yun!"
Murong Qingcheng called three times in a row before pulling Xiao Yun back from his contemplation.
"What's wrong with you?" found that he had deviated from the main line, and Murong Qingcheng stabilized his emotions and asked with pretended concern.
"Nothing, nothing, just remembering something, uh, the past. Xiao Yun talked about him left and right, and he didn't plan to tell Murong Qingcheng about his past, because he felt that the relationship between the two of them was just one-sided now.
He was interested in everything she had to offer, but that didn't mean she cared about his affairs as well.
"Uh...... That, Xiao and Yun, thank you for your help in Yucheng. After hesitating for a long time, Murong Qingcheng finally spoke out.
"It's been so long, don't mention it. "Xiao Yun doesn't know what Murong Qingcheng is referring to, whether to kill Liu Sanfeng, or to reveal the emperor's list, or to break the tongue of Liu De?" β
If it had been before, Murong Qingcheng would definitely sneer and snort: Who rarely protects you? But today, Murong Qingcheng was silent.
"Sure enough, something!" When it came to this, no matter how Xiao Yun didn't understand the world, he also figured out that Murong Qingcheng had something to ask.
It's not just about going out and walking. Xiao Yun sighed lightly, a little disappointed in his heart, but he also knew that this kind of thing was in a hurry, so he simply opened his mouth first: "Qingcheng, if the princess has something to do, but it doesn't matter, if the kid is capable, he will definitely do his best and respond to his needs." β
Xiao Yun's words were said without hesitation.
"Do you have to respond?" Silently weighing the weight of these four words in his heart, Murong Qingcheng raised his head and looked directly at the young man beside him for the first time, not all of them can easily say the four words "respond to requests".
Seeing that Murong Qingcheng forgot to come over, Xiao Yun's gaze subconsciously dodged a little, his heart also pounded, and a shy burgundy color climbed up his cheeks.
"Actually, my father maybe," he made up his mind, and Murong Qingcheng no longer swallowed, "it is possible to survive in the world." β
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yun was shocked. A few years ago, he also knew some information about the imperial family of the Yanhua Empire through many inquiries, and the current emperor usurped the throne is true, and the former emperor, that is, Murong Qingcheng's father, has been assassinated, which is also a widely circulated statement.
And now Murong Qingcheng actually said that his father might still be alive, how could this not make him feel horrified. In addition to being shocked, I can't help but wonder a little, what is the matter with Qingcheng?
