Chapter 47: Broken Hair and Broken Love
readx;? Yitong was about to leave in a hurry, and the man wanted to say something, but the curtain came over and grabbed Yitong's shoulder and said, "It's windy, why did you come out again?"
Hitomi buried her face in his chest and didn't speak. The man was a little stunned when he saw www.biquge.info two of them behaving intimately.
The person behind the curtain was unaware of the situation, and asked sharply, "What's the matter?"
"It's okay. The princess of this king is not feeling well, and this king sends her back to the room first. Ruan Zhong arranged for these two adults to go to the guest room to rest. The curtain instructed, but he took Yitong away.
"Please go this way!" Ruan Zhong took the two people to settle in the guest room.
"What's the matter with you today?" As soon as Ruan Zhong left, the adult began to ask, "What kind of place is this? How can you be rude to other people's daughters?!"
"Your Excellency...... Small...... The small ones just recognize that...... That man is the Nine Princesses!" the other stammered.
"What?!" another voice of surprise and doubt: "Can you see clearly? Is it true?"
"Lord Liang, you will never be mistaken! It is really the ninth princess of the year. "The little guy is convincing.
Lord Liang squinted his eyes and pondered: "It was rumored that the Nine Princesses and the Four Princes were rumored back then...... Don't...... It's ......"
"No wonder, over the years, the emperor has searched everywhere but has not found her!" said the little servant, following Lord Liang.
"My lord, what should we do now?, do you want to fly a pigeon and pass the book to the emperor?" the little servant proposed when he saw that Lord Liang was silent.
Lord Liang waved his hand: "You let me think about it first!"
"Who are those two people?" Yitong asked nervously, grabbing the clothes of the curtain and stealing it.
Mu Youzhi looked at her frightened face and reached out to hold her little hand: "It's okay, it's okay." It's just two outsiders. ”
"No! no. He...... He recognized me. Yitong lowered his head, and the comfort of the curtain was obviously useless.
Mu Youzhi hugged her and didn't speak, wanting to give her a sense of security.
"You!" Yitong whispered his name, but quickly raised his head again: "They are from the Shogunate Dynasty, aren't they?
Her questioning like this made Mu Youzhi not know how to answer, and looked at her quietly for a while, and then Mu Youzhi said slowly: "They are indeed from the Mu Dynasty, but I have no contact with Mu Yanqin." He's just here to talk about trade. ”
Yi Tong stared at his eyes tightly, knowing that he was not lying, so he relieved his heart: "Then what now? They must recognize me!"
Mu Youzhu looked at her faintly, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to go back?"
Yitong was startled and raised his head, but there were already tears in his eyes: "You...... Why do you think I still want to go back?"
Seeing tears in her eyes, Mu Youzhi felt very guilty, stepped forward, and hugged her in his arms: "I'm sorry......!
Yitong leaned into his arms, heard his heartbeat clearly, and felt a little relieved, and swore that "I will never look back on the past I have forgotten!"
After listening to her words, Mu Youzhi seemed to be relieved: "Then what are you worried about?"
"I'm worried if he knows......" I'm not even going to mention the person's name.
"I don't care about anything! I only care about your heart! If you say you don't want to go back, you won't go back!"
Because he was worried about meeting those two people from the shogunate dynasty, Hitomi didn't appear in the front yard.
But what should come will always come, and at night, in the study, someone quietly knocked on Yitong's door.
"Who?" Yitong opened the door and saw the Liang Lady standing in the doorway.
"Miss Yitong, I want to say something to you, I wonder if I can hear it with my ears?" he said earnestly, standing outside the door.
"Please come in!" Hitomi opened the door and let him in, knowing that if she didn't make it clear this time, there would be more trouble.
"Dare to ask where the girl is from?" asked directly as soon as Lord Liang sat down.
"Lord Liang, do you want to ask me if I'm Chu You?" Yitong has already done a good job of mental construction, and this will already be calm in his heart.
Lord Liang's eyes flickered, and he was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect her to be so calm and direct. At the moment, I didn't know what was wrong: "Maybe the girl doesn't know." I went to the emperor, and immediately after ascending the throne, I decreed that there would only be one queen in this life, that is, the nine princesses of the year. and no longer marry a wife in this life, so he quarreled with the Queen Mother many times. ”
Yi Tong really hadn't heard of this, and couldn't help but look at him with wide eyes in surprise.
Lord Liang knew that she didn't know about this matter at all when he saw Yitong's expression, so he smiled bitterly twice: "The emperor works hard for state affairs day and night, but he still doesn't forget to send people everywhere to find the queen's mother, just because of the body found in the Nine Princes' Mansion back then, the emperor suspects that it is not the mother." Over the years, the emperor has worked hard, but he has never forgotten his mother for a day. This time, although the minister was ordered to come to negotiate trade, but before leaving, the emperor privately instructed to pay attention to the news of the mother. ”
Lord Liang saw Yitong's expression, and continued: "If it is, maybe, please also please, Niangniang will go back with her ministers." ”
Yitong shook her head at this time, the suffering of those days, although she thinks about it now, although it is long gone, but her heart still hurts, she said solemnly to Lord Liang: "Chu You is indeed dead!"
"Niangniang!" Lord Liang thought that she had been persuaded by her hard work.
"Please don't call me that, sir. Chu You is really dead. The moment her child died, she died, but you didn't find her body. Yitong said lightly.
"However, in order to save Niangniang's life, the emperor asked the queen mother for the thousand-year-old snow lotus, and the emperor is also a national responsibility, so he must make a show for those who are not pure-minded! Why can't Niangniang think about the emperor? For the sake of the mother, the emperor said all the good things in front of the queen mother, and even exchanged conditions. Even if you marry Concubine Lian as a concubine, you have no choice but to do it!" "This Lord Liang is also a powerful person by the emperor's side, and he can know these inside stories.
Yitong also knew that the snow lotus in his body was really him, and it was indeed he who gave up the child in order to save himself. Although it is still heart-wrenching when I think about it now, why are these entangled pasts spoken by others, not him?!
If he could have made everything clear at the beginning, how could he not stand with him and face these crises together?
In the end, he still doesn't trust himself enough, doesn't trust himself enough to protect himself, and trusts himself not to lag behind.
Those scenes are so deep, how terrible should such a man be?
"Lord Liang, maybe the emperor of a country has a heavy responsibility, and has the hope and sustenance of millions of Li people, but I am just a woman. I never wanted to be a princess or a mother of the country, all I wanted was a couple for the rest of my life. Even in those difficult times, I am willing to face it with him, why do you want to make a show? Who to show it? to others? or to yourself?"
"However, the emperor ......," Lord Liang heard her say this, and wanted to plead.
"But he has the weight of a country, and he has to do that, right?" Yitong said for him: "The past is in the past." I don't want to mention it again. When the adults went back this time, they still said that they hadn't seen Chu You!"
"The emperor has made an oath that there is only one mother in this life, isn't that enough?" Lord Liang is not selfish.
Yitong's figure shook a little: "My lord, it's too late, it's too late...... Adults just think how rare it is for the king of a country not to marry in this life. But how can an adult know what it is like for a woman or a mother to be killed by the person she loves the most? A woman, or a mother, can't even keep her own child, can adults know that kind of feeling? Can adults know what it's like to see a little girl being ravaged by soldiers in the desert? Can adults know? Adults are men, and men naturally have to put the country first, and the emperor must also put the country first, so sometimes what needs to be sacrificed, can adults know? Can the emperor know?
This series of questions, Lord Liang, who asked, was dumbfounded and speechless.
Yitong opened the door and said resolutely, "My lord, please go back!"
"Niangniang!" said Lord Liang, kneeling down: "Niangniang really has no affection at all?
Yitong turned around and saw that there was still a pair of scissors on the table, picked up the scissors, cut a strand of hair, and handed it to Lord Liang: "You just have to say, the affection in this life is like this broken hair, and it will never be recovered." Invite him, forget about Chu You! Be a good emperor who is diligent in government and loves the people!"
"Mother!" Lord Liang still stood there and looked at her pleadingly.
"I thank him for what he did for me, but Chu You is really dead, and he can't go back to the past. Lord Liang, go back early! forget about it!" Yi Tong said and was about to close the door.
Seeing that it was useless to say anything, Lord Liang had no choice but to hold his hair and leave.
As soon as the door was closed, Hitomi wailed and cried, why didn't he make it clear then? Why couldn't he tell himself these things first? Why did he hear about these things from a stranger's mouth at this time?
The world is changing, why does he think that he can control the overall situation and not leak?
Thinking of what he has experienced in these days, remembering what he has said, Yitong's heart is really sad and unbearable.
Hitomi cried to herself, she didn't know that outside the window, there was always a gray shadow, standing there. From beginning to end, hear these conversations and see her every expression. Mu Youzhi looked at the crying Yitong, did not enter the door to comfort, just stood quietly, stood for a long time, and turned to leave.
