Chapter 21: The Heart of Admiration

The corners of Qing Zhan's mouth went up, and he smiled confidently, this was the first confident smile he showed after facing the battle of civil strife, and it was also a vision for the future, an expectation for the new world he wanted to see.

After the civil strife passed, the people in the royal court were uneasy, after Qing Zhan and Xiao Wang saw that Jielan's condition was almost better, they planned to go out to comfort the people, after all, such a chaotic situation must have the people in power to stabilize the people's hearts, he and the two handed over the sleeping Jielan to Ning Lu to take care of, Ning Lu nodded and agreed, she waited for Xiao Wang and they left the palace, then sat at the head of Jielan's bed, looking at this haggard woman, but her heart was extremely admiring, she whispered: "I didn't understand why Xuan Ming admired you so much, but now I finally know, Because you are an elusive woman, and you are also a woman who makes men can't help but be eclipsed, so Xuan Ming's heart like you is so humble, he knows that he can't have your heart, but he still can't help but admire you, maybe this is your charm, your charm is incomparable to a woman like me, because I am too cowardly, always give in, and never think of fighting for my own fate, maybe I am not qualified to have Xuan Ming's heart, to be honest, I have resented you before, I think you're just a blood demon, and what qualifications do you have to be Xuanming's love, but now I think about it, it's so ridiculous for me to have such thoughts, I've always been proud of my identity, it turns out that I'm so small and pathetic, isn't it? Ning Lu muttered to herself, she didn't say that Yu Jielan listened, but said it to herself, for this time, she had been thinking about Jielan, and she kept hearing stories about her, after listening to a lot, she knew that such a woman was a legend, and she was just a woman who would only hide in the mountains to escape reality.

However, Jielan in her sleep heard someone muttering in her ear, and slowly she woke up, she opened her hazy eyes, looked at Ning Lu sitting beside her, and listened to her talking to herself, Jielan didn't bother, let alone interrupt, just listened quietly, when she saw Ning Lu talking about the back, tears flowed through her jade cheeks, Jielan's heart also hurt, she stretched out her weak right hand, and held Ning Lu's hand on the edge of the bed, Ning Lu felt the temperature between her hands, looked at Jielan in a coma in amazement, and when she found that Jielan had woken up, she was busy wiping away her tears, she stood up from the edge of the bed, and said, "Are you awake?" Is there any better? ”

Jielan propped herself up from the bed and leaned on the head of the bed, her whole body was still tearing and painful, but she had completely felt that her body was not as painful as before, she smiled indifferently and asked, "Did you heal me for me?" ”

Ning Lu nodded lightly and said, "What I just said... It's just"

Jielan shook her head, signaling that she didn't need to explain, she still just smiled indifferently, stretched out her hands and gently held Ning Lu's hand, and said: "Your confusion actually existed a long time ago, maybe everyone will go through such a journey, doubt others, doubt themselves, doubt so much that they lose their self-confidence, and in the end they don't know which one is themselves, I was not only such a person before, but I also hated myself and looked down on myself, but after going through many things, I gradually understood, In fact, there is no distinction between high and low, and no one can look down on us, if you must say that there are people in this world, it is only us, so, please believe me, Ning Lu, you are the most beautiful woman in the world, no one can compare with you, and in Xuan Ming's heart, I believe that you are always the most important person, and I am just a friend who helped him when he was most painful and helpless, if his heart did not understand this, it was only because he himself blinded his heart, One day, he will understand who he should expect from him to be by his side, and who is best suited to stand by his side. ”

I don't know why, hearing Jielan's words of comfort, Ning Lu's tears rolled down from her jade face like a pearl with a broken thread, she used to be so resentful of her, but she never had such a mind about herself, but she still comforted her so hard, who can compare to this kind of bearing? Ning Lu held Jielan's hand with his backhand, and said: "Although I resented my sister before, but now, I am my sister the person I respect the most, if everything is as my sister said, it is really a distant dream, in this life, I am afraid that I will never see Xuan Ming again, as long as he still remembers that there is a me in his heart, it is enough." ”

Jielan knew the worries in Ning Lu's heart, she hadn't thought about all this, since she came to the royal city, she had been thinking about how to reunite Ning Lu and Xuan Ming, and how to break the decree so that they could be together in the name of justice, she originally planned to see Ning Lu in the morning, but as soon as she arrived in the royal city, too many things happened, so that she couldn't take care of Ning Lu's affairs, until now, the civil strife has calmed down, and the big battle with Heimu County is imminent, Jielan has thought of a way to let Ning Lu return to Chiyan City, she looked at the sky outside, I was quite anxious in my heart, and asked, "Where has Shaojun gone?" ”

"He and the king went up to pacify their subjects." Ning Lu replied gently.

Jielan nodded, she thought that Qing Zhan's injury was also very serious, and she couldn't help but worry: "Isn't his injury important?" Even though he was more injured than me, he still didn't care about his body. ”

Ning Lu saw that Jielan was full of concern for Qing Zhan both from her words and between her eyebrows, this kind of concern was not the concern that ordinary monarchs and ministers should have, but from the bottom of her heart. As early as when he was in Chiyan City, Ning Lu had already felt Qing Zhan's deep love for Jielan, but at that time, he couldn't feel Jielan's affection for Qing Zhan, and now, Jielan also has a figure of Qing Zhan in her eyes, maybe the love between them is not half a point weaker than her feelings for Xuan Ming. Ning Lu Chang exhaled and said warmly: "Shaojun, he has his own measure, and his own spiritual power has the ability to recover itself, although he is seriously injured, as long as he exercises his strength and breathing, there should be no problem." ”

Jielan listened to Ning Lu's words, although she was still very worried, but it was not time for her to care about someone at this time, she lifted the futon, got out of bed, and then prepared to change her clothes. Seeing this, Ning Lu asked, "You are weak, and you still need more rest." ”

Jielan shook her head and said with a wry smile: "At this time, in this Pingdu, I'm afraid no one can rest without worry, and I, as the princess of this royal city, how can I be sleepy at this moment." She took her clothes and prepared to put them on, but because of her weakness, she had some difficulty even getting dressed. Ning Lu walked over and helped her change her clothes, and after the change, she only said: "The princess is really naturally beautiful, beautiful and noble, such you really make it difficult for those courtiers to raise their heads." ”

Jielan smiled bitterly again, and said, "No, what I want is for them to raise their heads, I hope this is my country, a country that will not bow its head." ”

Ning Lu didn't understand the meaning of Jielan's words, but he could feel Jielan's determination and that unique temperament from it. Jielan saw that the sky was already bright, so she said: "Soon it will be the time of the last dynasty, today's court must be much more lively than other times, Sister Ninglu must be present, the only person who is indispensable in today's court meeting is you." ”

Ning Lu didn't like that kind of political place very much, but if Jielan asked, she couldn't refuse, she nodded, and only said: "If there is a life for me, I will do my best." ”

Jielan nodded and said, "I really need your help this time, and it's a big favor, I can't think of anyone else except you." ”

Ning Lu was even more puzzled by Jielan's words, and didn't know what she was talking about, but Jielan did smile, she took Ning Lu's hand and said, "Let's go, although these royal courts still look very messy now, but it doesn't affect my decision." ”

Ning Lu followed Jielan out of the dormitory, and several waiters who had been waiting outside and had not escaped followed Jielan towards the main hall, Jielan's steps towards the main hall were light, but heavy, because this was the first time she had experienced civil strife and pacified the civil strife, but this time she was still the master, and she needed to make a judgment on this civil strife.

................

When they arrived at the top of the main hall, almost all the ministers had already arrived at the court, but some of the courtiers had not yet gone to court, and most of these courtiers who had not gone to court were all cronies of King Beron, and now they knew that King Beron's rebellion had failed, so they naturally knew that they would suffer, so some fled from the city, some said that they were sick and sick at home, and some were so frightened that they committed suicide.

This civil strife allows the righteous to remain here, and those who disagree have lost their position, this is the right of the victor and the fate of the loser.

King Xiao and Shaojun both came to the main hall, when all the ministers knelt down and saluted, King Xiao only said: "This war, this king is really guilty, this king never thought, my brother has the intention of seizing power, although my brother is unforgivable, but this king did not find out his dissenting intentions, but it is also the fault of this king, this king is very sorry for the suffering soldiers and people, here, this king is willing to make an edict of guilt, so that the subjects of the world know the mistakes of this king, and also take this as a lesson for future generations of kings, do not repeat the mistakes of this king." ”

When all the courtiers heard the king's words, they were terrified, and knelt down again to plead guilty, saying: "It is the fault of the ministers, the ministers have failed to fulfill their duties, so that the king of Peron rebelled and harmed the royal court, and the crimes of the ministers cannot be forgiven, so please ask the king to surrender." ”

King Xiao spread his hands and said, "All the ministers, please get up!" I can't complain about you about this matter, it is the root of this king's planting, this king should have this calamity, but the rebels are unforgivable, what do the ministers think about how to deal with King Beron and others? ”
