Chapter 324: Dare Me See Your Kirin Birthmark?
"You stop! ……”
Huanyu was bored playing the piano in the imperial garden of the palace, and unintentionally met Ling Yun, who was disguised as "Zhou Shan", and immediately realized that something was wrong, and couldn't help blurting out.
Ling Yun's heart throbbed unconsciously, and he subconsciously stood still.
Huanyu's always peaceful expression seemed to have a touch of eccentricity, and her eyes became complex and subtle, revealing an incomprehensible sense of complexity.
She got up slowly, walked up and down in front of him, looked him up and down with a bit of inquiry, and finally her bright eyes froze on his eyes.
"Y-are-who?" She said word by word.
Ling Yun tried to ignore her burning gaze, and also ignored the emotions in her heart, and bowed her head and said, "Humble Zhou Shan." ”
Huanyu said: "Look into my eyes and answer me, who are you?" ”
Ling Yun's Adam's apple rolled twice, and the hand at his side slowly clenched.
He forcibly suppressed the pounding heart, and said in a dumb voice: "The humble position is just a guard in the palace, and the humble position is humble, how dare you look directly at the county lord." The county lord forgave his sins, and he was still in charge of his duties, and he was out of company. ”
After saying these words, he didn't wait for the other party to say anything more, and hurried away with his head down, as if fleeing.
Lord Huanyu looked at his distant back intently, his eyes were blurred, as if he was stunned for a while.
It took a long time for her to come to her senses, and said with a wry smile: "Huanyu, what's wrong with you?" How do you look like him? Do you really want him to be demonic? ……”
At this time, the girl Xiangyun came over, and saw that she seemed to have been drained of her soul, and she couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and said cautiously: "The county lord-"
Huanyu said blankly: "What's the matter?" ”
Xiangyun lowered her head and lowered her eyes, and said respectfully: "The Queen Mother, please come over!" ”
Huanyu said weakly: "Okay." Let's put the piano away first! ”……
Ling Yun returned to his residence in one breath, closed the door, and leaned his body against the door tiredly. He felt his heart beat fast.
He closed his eyes and said to himself over and over again in his heart: "Lingyun, you must refrain and forbear, because now you are not only yourself......
Although he warned himself over and over again in his heart to restrain and forbear, he still couldn't control his thoughts, and couldn't help but think about Huanyu and what had just happened.
He was supposed to have something to do when he went out today.
Since he received Lian Nanchun's flying pigeon biography a few days ago and knew the ulterior inside story of Feng Lin's confession, he has been quietly collecting valuable evidence before and after the prince's murder.
One of the most important things is: to find out the whereabouts of the palace maid named Zi Yan.
Today he went out, vigilantly avoiding the eyes and ears of those palace people and guards, and quietly came to Yuchen Palace.
Finally, with the help of Concubine Ling's confidants, the whereabouts of the palace maid named "Zi Yan" were discovered: she, as a suspected palace member in the prince's case, had been banished from the palace for dereliction of duty.
He couldn't help but be disappointed, and the clue that was supposed to be in his hands was broken again!
Because as soon as this person leaves the palace, he will sink like a stone into the sea, and the bird will enter the deep forest - the sea of people is vast, where to find it?
He came out of the Yuchen Palace in frustration, and as he walked back, he thought about Fang Cai's affairs; In a state of distraction, suddenly a melodious and melodious sound of the piano floated into my ears. The sound of the piano was tactful and sad, like crying and complaining, and it was even more familiar.
He only felt that his heart trembled, and his mind was in a trance, as if he had returned to the beautiful days of spring and poetry many years ago; Unconsciously, he walked step by step looking for the sound of the piano......
And so there was a scene just now.
At this time, thinking about what happened today, the bits and pieces of the past came to his heart like a tide for a while, and he only felt that his heart was extremely chaotic.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly, and laughed at himself: "Ling Yun, you are really useless, when is it, why are you still thinking about these mothers-in-law......
At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside the door. Then a guard's voice said, "Brother Zhou, Commander Li has something to do with you." ”
Ling Yun came to his senses and said listlessly: "Okay, I'll come." ”
The night was deep. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and even the stars were dim. The night of the sky is as cool as water, revealing a sense of loneliness and depression.
When Ling Yun returned to his residence from Li Zhishan, it was already late. He dragged his heavy steps open the courtyard door and walked in one step at a time.
He was so tired, physically tired, and even more mentally tired. He pushed the door open, startled.
There was a light in the room. How so? This courtyard hall belongs to him alone. When he comes back in the evening, he turns on the lights.
In other words, the lights have always been turned off in this room - no wonder he is surprised to see the lights on.
But when he saw the next scene, his expression was more than strange.
There was a man sitting in the room, looking at him intently. Lord of the Raccoon Jade.
Ling Yun only felt his head bang and almost fainted. His face turned pale for a moment, his lips trembled for a few moments, and at last he didn't say anything. He just stared at her blankly, as if he were stunned for a moment.
Lord Huanyu narrowed his narrow eyes, with a vague smile on his face, and said with a bit of teasing: "Why don't you speak?" ”
Ling Yun's body was as stiff as a stone, and his tense expression revealed extreme restraint and forbearance; He lifted his head and exhaled softly, then turned and walked out the door.
Huanyu's eyebrows were solemn, and he stood up and shouted, "Stop!" ”
Ling Yun had no choice but to stand.
Huanyu's sharp eyes stared at him without blinking, "Why do you want to go?" You're afraid to see me, are you? ”
Ling Yun said: "Yes." ”
Huanyu Moth raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "You finally admit it." ”
Ling Yun stood expressionlessly, the corners of his lips drooped slightly, and his voice was hoarse and deep, "County Lord, during the day, the humble position has been explained very clearly to the county lord, the county lord is the honor of a thousand times, and the humble position is just a small guard in the palace, how dare you offend the prestige of the county lord?" What's more, it's so late now, there is a difference between you and me, if it is spread, what will be the consequences? Please respect the county lord. ”
The corners of Huanyu's mouth hooked up a chuckle, and said leisurely: "What a high-sounding reason!" ”
Ling Yun turned his back to Huanyu and forced himself to stand still, just bowing his head and not saying a word.
Huanyu's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, "You really know how to pretend, Ling Yun." ”
Ling Yun's heart flickered, and he almost lost his voice. He fixed his mind and pretended to be ignorant: "What the county lord is talking about, I don't understand it." ”
Huanyu's eyes swept past the other party's confused and uneasy face, and his lips were dyed with a slight sneering arc, "Lingyun, when is it, are you still pretending to be deaf and dumb?" ”
Ling Yun's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he said in surprise: "Ling Yun? …… Is the county lord talking about the court prisoner in the Shangshu Mansion of the original Criminal Department, where is he, and the county lord knows? Then ask the county lord to tell the lowly position, and the lowly position will report to Commander Li. ”
Huanyu forcibly suppressed her anger, she slowly turned to Ling Yun, stared at him with her eyes straight and said, "You raise your head and look into my eyes." ”
Ling Yun bit his lip lightly and turned his face to the side, his eyes wandering.
Huanyu was a little suppressed angry, "Why don't you dare to look at me?" Did you know that a person's face can change, his voice can change, but can his eyes and demeanor change? ”
Ling Yun was silent.
Huanyu said again: "The two of them have lived together for so many years, and everything he has has has been deeply engraved in my heart; To put it mildly, even if it turns to ashes, I will recognize his bones, let alone a whole man standing here!
"A mask can cover a person's face, but can it hide his words, deeds, voice, and smile? Can it obscure his irreplaceable place in my heart? ”
"County Lord." Ling Yun felt his heart twitch in pain; He tilted his head slightly, closed his eyes to calm the turbulent struggles in his heart, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were bloodshot and his mind was blank.
Huanyu cried: "What reason do you want to find to prevaricate me now?" Well, all you have to do is answer me one thing now, and I'll leave immediately, and I won't come to pester you again. ”
Ling Yun looked at her.
Huanyu said: "Do you dare to take off your clothes and let me see your left arm?" If I didn't have that unicorn birthmark, I'd admit that I recognized the wrong person! ”
Ling Yun didn't speak.
The corners of Huanyu's lips raised, and she said almost step by step: "Why don't you speak, don't you dare to agree to my request?" ”
This sentence directly poked his most fragile nerves, and the wall called "strong" that he had built with great difficulty in the depths of his heart collapsed.
His heart ached, his face lifted, and tears rolled down his cheeks.
He slowly raised his hand and gently ripped off the human skin mask, revealing his handsome and dustless face.
Huanyu's eyes shattered in an instant. She looked at his face without blinking, his eyes, wept with joy, and rushed forward desperately to hug him tightly.
Her side face was pressed against his warm chest, listening to the steady and powerful heartbeat in his chest, and all the grievances and depressions finally found a place at this moment.
Ling Yun frowned slightly, and finally couldn't match the other party's passionate passion, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to wrap his arm around her waist, making her lean into his arms steadily.
Huanyu cried and said, "Do you know how worried I am about you these days, how much I miss you? But you dodged and ignored me, and pretended to prevaricate me! You're so ruthless - Lingyun, I hate you! ”
Ling Yun gently pushed her away, turned his back and said, "County Lord, do you know how I've spent my days these days?" In order to find evidence of the prince's case, in order to show Lord Lu Xue's grievances, and in order to confirm my own innocence, I ran around, sometimes even hanging by a thread......"
Huanyu's cheeks were slightly red, and even a little hot, showing the strong excitement and dissatisfaction in her heart, "That's why you disguised yourself as Qiao and sneaked into the palace to find evidence, right?" That's why you saw me dodging, pretending to be me, ignoring me, didn't you? ”……
