Perhaps because of the medicine, Su Yao slept very deeply this night, and no longer stepped on the soft and damp land when she was in a hurry to Wuzhou that day, as if she was alone in the world, but had a sense of peace of mind that her feet were firmly on the ground.

When I woke up, the sky outside was dim like late night, but the hot wind that spread along the window lattice into the house was telling Su Yao that it was still daytime.

Through a ladies' six-curved screen, she sat up with a heavy head, leaned on the position in front of the couch, and could vaguely see the moon gate at the corner of the inner and outer rooms.

The corners of the young man's razor-sharp robe were exposed.

The faint scent of sandalwood on Wei Jingji's body had gradually melted into the room after this afternoon, and Su Yao leaned against the head of the bed, and when she noticed who this familiar fragrance came from, she was stunned for a moment, as if she had returned to the East Palace in a trance.

The howling of the wind outside is a sign of a rainstorm.

Her movements to get up were not small.

Soon, Wei Jingji's voice mixed with thunder reached her ears.

"It's thundering, I'll stay with you for a while?"

Su Yao shook her head where he couldn't see, and when she reacted that he couldn't see her movements, she said, "No, I'm not afraid." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a thunderclap fell from the sky.

The downpour followed, and the sound of raindrops hitting the tiles could be heard quietly in the house, and the muffled thunder that was ready to erupt in the dark clouds became even more terrifying.

She is telling the truth, not a pretext.

In the past few years, she is no longer afraid of ordinary thunderstorm nights, and no matter how loud the thunder is, she will let Bai Lu accompany her, and Mu Ruan has another house in Wuzhou, and only comes to live with her for a period of time from time to time.

But this thunder seemed to be deliberately singing against Su Yao, and not only did the sound get louder and louder, but in a few strokes, the dark sky was also split.

Wei Jingji put his hands on his back, looked out the window, and said:

"Do you think I believe it?"

When Su Yao heard him speak, it was both slow and slow, with a somewhat idle tone, and he couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

Ever since he showed up at the infirmary yesterday, she felt that something was different about him.

Now she finally understands what's different.

Wei Jingji seemed to have changed back to the way he was before he set out on the expedition, the one she remembered the most and was considered the most important person in her life.

High-spirited, unfazed everywhere, and casual to the point of almost indifference.

Su Yao was silent for half an hour this time, and only when her chaotic thoughts were cleared up did she say, "...... Even if you do, I won't be with you again. ”

At such a distance, even if it was stormy outside, Su Yao could be sure that he could hear what she was saying.

There was no silence outside.

There was movement in the room again, it was Wei Jingji who walked in, she didn't know what he was going to do, but her body shrunk.

But when he got to the window in the middle of the room, he stopped, and closed the window, as if he was just looking for a place where he could see her and talk to her.

Then, Wei Jingji leaned against the window and whispered, "I know." ”

Su Miao thought that he was going to say what he said before.

As a result, Wei Jing narrowed his eyelids and said, "So, I've figured out a lot of things these days. ”

He was silent for a moment, and said in a serious tone, "I'm ready to let you go." ”

Su Miao was stunned.

When she was still stunned, Wei Jingji approached her, rubbed her head as before, and when she met her stunned eyes, he chuckled and said with relief:

"Okay, have a good rest, or you will have someone to support you when you are ready to marry him?"

Chapter 72

Su Yao was silent for a long time, and when he reacted, he realized that he had unconsciously looked at Wei Jingji for a long time.

She slowly looked away, her tone a little unclear: "Then you...... What are you going back to Wuzhou for? ”

Wei Jingji did not reply in a hurry, but first hooked a chair over, sat down in front of her, stretched out his arm and poured her a cup of tea.

"Drink water."

Su Yao raised her hand to catch it, and the warm cup was ironed against the cold palm.

"I've been working on the canal file lately, and Wuzhou is an important part of it," he said, taking a sip from her, and then he said leisurely, "The situation around me is complicated, and I need to be here."

It turned out that he wasn't here for her.

Su Yao had mixed feelings in her heart, and after drinking a cup of tea, she said, "I'm sleepy again." ”

Wei Jingji said: "You sleep." ”

She turned her head to look at him and didn't speak.

Wei Jingji saw the meaning in her eyes, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "You really don't need to accompany you?" ”

His tone was light, as if he would leave as long as Su Yao said one more word.

Su Yao finally snorted softly.

Wei Jingji was silent for a moment, stood up, picked up the strip of cloth she had placed under the bed, sighed imperceptibly, and said, "Okay." Then I'm gone. ”

After he had finished speaking, he walked outward, and in an instant his tall back reached the moon gate at the corner, and his steps were steady and powerful.

Next, the sound of doors opening and closing sounds one after another.

The room was quiet again.

Su Yao shrank into the quilt, Although Wei Jingji closed the windows tightly, the temperature around him also dropped a lot with the heavy rain.

She held the tea and drank it, and the back of her hand was also blown cold.

Lie down at this moment and tuck your hands into the futon, as if you have entered the stove all at once.

But it was clear that there was nothing to think of in her mind, Su Yao couldn't sleep even if she closed her eyes, she had only slept at noon, and she had just woken up, how could she be sleepy.

In fact, she didn't know how to face Wei Jingji.

He had changed so quickly that it was as if nothing had ever happened before.

Her memory was still stuck on that day, when Wei Jingji leaned against the door of her room, and asked her with a trembling voice if it was true that she was married to Mo Xianjia.

I couldn't sleep left and right, and the thunder outside then drew some bloody pictures.

Su Yao's body was even colder, she sat up again, and wanted to call the maid in, but the door rang again.

She paused, looked towards the door in a daze, and her heart beat faster unconsciously.

"Auntie, did you sleep? I'm here for you! ”

It's Muruan.

Su Yao's heartbeat gradually returned to normal, and when she rubbed her arms, she wondered, "Ru'an, didn't you go out with Xiao Yingqing?" How did you come back so early? ”

As soon as she entered the house, she looked for water everywhere and instructed the maid to carry water to bathe her.

"Don't mention it, I just went out for a short time before it started to rain, and I finally rushed back, and as soon as I entered the yard, I was blocked by Wei Jingji."

Su Yao paused, "What is he blocking you for?" ”

Mu Ruan found the teacup, poured herself a few cups, and after drinking it, she was not so thirsty and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Wei Jingji said that there will be thunder tonight, let me come and sleep with you, I thought that I was sweating outside, so I wouldn't come to you directly, right? I wanted to discuss with him and let me bathe before I went, but he asked Liang Yuan to press me over......"

Speaking of this, Mu Ru'an's tone was a little resentful, and he leaned on the table and looked at Su Yao.

"Ah Yao, you have made everything clear to him, why hasn't he given up, he won't live here forever, right?"

Su Yao took a quilt on the bed and laid it out for Mu Ru'an before saying, "He won't stay long." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Ru'an remembered something, and suddenly looked up from the table, "By the way, Ah Yao, last time I was in Yangzhou, I forgot to tell you something." ”

"What's the matter?"

Mu Ruan said: "When I was talking to people about business last time, I heard that the triennial draft in the palace had begun, and I calculated the time, and it was indeed here, but the saint's body has not been very good, so there are rumors that this draft is to re-elect the crown princess." ”

Su Yao recalled it and said calmly: "In the last draft, the saint did point out a lot of people to the children of the royal family who had never been married, and it may not be groundless. ”

"In all dynasties, according to the crown prince of Wei Jingji's age, there are very few children under his knees, and he has not yet married a wife, so everyone speculates that this time the saint is choosing a wife for him under the guise of a draft.

After Mu Ru'an finished speaking, he changed his words and said, "If Wei Jingji has decided to be the crown princess, don't you have to marry Mo Xianjia?" ”

When Su Yao was in Yangzhou, she explained the ins and outs of the matter to Mu Ruan, so she knew about her and Mo Xianjia.

"If he is married, I naturally don't need to marry Mo Xianjia. In fact, even Wei Jingji has not decided to marry, and I don't need to act anymore. ”

Mu Ruan asked curiously, "Why?" ”

Su Yao remembered what Wei Jingji said just now, and his tone had a sense of ethereal and distant in this stormy night.

"He said he let me go."

Mu Ruan looked a little hesitant, "He said it himself?" ”

Su Yao nodded, "He stayed with me because he wanted to repair the relationship between my brothers and sisters, and he didn't come to Wuzhou specifically for me, and he would leave when his affairs here were over." ”

Mu Ruan said: "You used to be husband and wife, and now you get along as righteous brothers and sisters, can you get along?" ”

Su Miao was silent, and thousands of thoughts surged in his mind.

After a while, she said, "Let it be." ”

Although Mu Ru'an was an outsider, she couldn't see through the intricate and repeated lifeline between Su Yao and Wei Jingji, and when she heard Su Yao say this, she could only nod her head and immediately went to the bath room to take a bath.

-

According to the agreement, it has come to the day when the sixteen masters from Yangzhou will arrive in Sufu.

On that day, the gate was opened, and the guards greeted them.

The dozen or so masters didn't know Su Yao's identity, but they knew that she was a person with great background.

Therefore, even though they had dealt with her through the screen when they were in Yangzhou, they were a little apprehensive when they gathered in the main courtyard before they officially entered the mansion.

On the lacquered gold carved table in the center of the main courtyard, a few magnolias were inserted in the moon-hugging bottle on the case.

The woman walked out of the main hall, wearing a butterfly-winged blue tunic skirt, with a thin waist and thin limbs, clear and bright eyes, a phoenix with a dazzling step, and a red and golden bell clanging.
