Chapter 34 (22)
Li Yijie's body jumped in all directions, but he never left the big tree in the courtyard, and before he could dance a few times, the rising sword qi had swept away the outer layer of leaves. Li Yijie lifted his sword and slashed it, causing the fallen leaves in the air to fall in a certain arrangement. Nangong Xue didn't see these strangeness at first, but when she saw a thick layer of leaves under the tree, she said angrily: "What is he doing here? What is he doing with my yard?
Lu Qian hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Don't be busy, Brother Li's heart can be hidden in these leaves." Now that he hasn't finished practicing, when you go to see the results, maybe you will be reluctant to sweep it away. Nangong Xue said angrily: "If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, what do you know?"
Lu Qian looked at her lightly angry, although her eyebrows and eyes were not as stunning and charming as Shen Shiyun, but she did not lose an elegant beauty. I almost blurted out, "I'll be your boss." "But thinking about it, I came here today to help Li Yijie. I didn't say this tightly, I was afraid that she would be so angry that she would turn around and leave on the spot, so she wouldn't have a chance to see Li Yijie's real efforts afterwards. So he took the broom with a smile and persuaded him in a good voice: "After the incident, I will help you clean up." You just have to watch it. β
Nangong Xue snorted lightly, I really don't know what kind of fake kindness he is offering as a weasel for no reason.
Lu Qian delayed in every possible way, and finally made Li Yijie's set of swordsmanship dance smoothly, and there were more leaves on the ground. The odd thing is that there are gaps in the middle, and it looks like some strange shapes.
Lu Qian said: "Okay, let's go and take a look." Nangong Xue didn't even want to move her steps, and said angrily: "Look, what's wrong? Isn't it just a bunch of leaves?
Lu Qian smiled: "You guessed wrong this time. Although there are no flowers in it, there are more precious things than flowers. He took her by the hand and walked over to the pile of leaves. "Look carefully and use all your imagination." Don't think of it as a pile of leaves, feel it with your heart. β
The more mysterious Nangong Xue heard what he said, the more disdain she felt in her heart. Reluctantly, she looked to the far right, only to feel that the shape was vaguely like a Chinese character, which matched her name, and it was a "snow" character. And the second word, which is not only easy to read, but also easy to guess, is a "child" word. This is followed by the words "Happy Birthday, I love you".
Nangong Xue was slightly surprised and said, "You ...... Do you remember my birthday?" has been wandering in the rivers and lakes for many years, and has been in trouble many times on the way, and even forgot about himself. After being reminded by him, I remembered that today was indeed my birthday.
Li Yijie said movingly: "Of course I remember, because this day is the second most important day in my life." Even the six years you have been thinking about it, I have never forgotten it. I will set up a feast in my room, pour myself a drink, and wish you eternal happiness and happiness. β
Nangong Xue was silent, thinking that in the past, in Huashan, all the brothers and sisters regarded this day as a good opportunity to please her. Because only birthday gifts can be given openly, without suspicion of other intentions. But among the many gifts piled up into a small mountain, the only thing that could arouse her expectations was Li Yijie's gift.
Li Yijie is also very fond of her, and almost every year, he can give her an unexpected surprise. But since the day of the descent, this tradition has been interrupted. In Li Yijie's story, there is a sentence that is right, the line of looking for soul-breaking tears is indeed the funeral of their feelings.
Li Yijie didn't know that she was immersed in memories, and seeing that her eyes seemed to show a little soft light, he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and said, "Do you like it, Xue'er?" This is the swordsmanship I specially practiced for your birthday, so I call it 'Mu Xue Swordsmanship', which is a gift from me." It was a chore to arrange these leaves into a specific shape with an invisible sword aura. But no matter what, I finally got it. Originally, this blessing should have been written on paper and sent to you. But you know, I can't write. If you ask someone to write for you, it will inevitably appear insincere. It was Brother Lu Xian who said that if you use this particular leaf to write, others will no longer laugh at your ugly words. But...... But in my opinion, it's still ugly. In short, as long as Xue'er can understand that I have done my best, I should be able to understand my sincerity towards you. In the future, I promise you that I will work hard to practice martial arts and study, advance both civil and military, and be a veritable leader of the martial arts alliance. β
Nangong Xue looked at the leaves and was still silent. Lu Qian couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a smile: "Xue'er, you know that Brother Li is lazy, and he is really greedy for this set of swordsmanship, and he doesn't sleep until he sleeps." If you are not moved by this heart, even I, an outsider, will be moved. On the other side, Li Yijie was also looking at her expectantly, eager to get an affirmative answer from her.
Nangong Xue finally raised her eyes to look at Li Yijie, and said lightly: "Yes, thank you very much." But being moved doesn't mean that I have to marry you to repay my kindness. Li Yijie's smile instantly fell, and then he forced a happy face and said, "I just- I want to give you a simple birthday wish, that's all." β
Nangong Xue said: "Okay, I have already received your gift." Can the two of you leave?" Lu Qian frowned and said, "Are you really so ruthless? Brother Li is so low for you, you don't even want to invite us in to sit down?"
Nangong Xue said: "The original prince is not here, I shouldn't have entertained male guests without authorization." If you are a woman, you should abide by the way of women. Lu Qian sneered: "The woman's way is guarded in the heart, not forced on the surface. Nangong Xue said: "Thank you for reminding me." But I think that Master Li, as the leader of the martial arts alliance, and you are also an official of the imperial court, the two of them should put more effort into doing things for the people and seeking benefits for the people, instead of spending their minds on these details that please me. β
Li Yijie said: "Only when you are happy, I have the confidence to do everything." Otherwise...... Your shadow is always swirling in front of me. Nangong Xue was noncommittal, and said: "It's because you are inattentive, how can you complain about me?" Lord Lu, don't forget what you promised, those leaves have been swept away. There are many things in the world, and once you miss them, you will miss them forever. With manpower, it can never be recovered. β
Li Yijie said hurriedly: "People have joys and sorrows, the moon is cloudy and sunny, and it is inevitable to be disappointed for a while." Now I'm willing to pay tenfold, if not a hundredfold, for my original mistakes, but ...... I don't want to miss you. "Said to hurry out. It was this kick that brought a strong wind at the same time. Before Nangong Xue could answer, a little of the leaves on the ground were swept up by the wind. Later, even if it is re-landed, it has already completely messed up the layout rules.
Nangong Xue looked at it in a daze, and said for a long time: "Everything is providential." Behold, the love you have given me is so superficial, and as soon as the wind blows, it has completely dissipated, and what eternity will you talk to me about?" Li Yijie stood in place and muttered, "Could it be ...... Is it really providential? Is Cher and I destined to be incombinable?"
Lu Qian said: "Don't be discouraged, I don't believe in any providence." She said that the fortress made of leaves is easy to dissipate, so you can give her a long enough to keep it, and see what else she has to say, but Cher has indeed changed...... "She has long been used to treating herself indifferently. But now he can be so indifferent to Li Yijie, and there is a vague sense of extreme cruelty. In the past, when his rival lost, he had to celebrate it in a big way.
Day after day, it was the eve of the wedding. Nangong Xue is trying on the wedding dress in the room, wearing a red silk shirt inside, a red robe embroidered on the outside, a neck collar Tianguan lock, a blue glass mirror on her chest, a xia curtain on her shoulders, a bag on her shoulders, a "fixed hand silver" wrapped around her arms, and a red skirt, red pants, and red satin embroidered shoes. Looking at himself in the mirror, he is charming, but only there is a little less joy between his eyebrows and eyes. With a long sigh, he sat down at the table, slowly brushed his eyebrows, and made the rouge on his face a little heavier to hide his haggardness. was dyed with red lips, and suddenly saw a figure in the bronze mirror, standing behind, looking at himself quietly, looking extremely lonely.
Nangong Xue sighed lightly, turned around, and said, "What are you doing again?" At this time, the rejection in her words was not as strong as the previous few times, and there was even a faint hint of expectation.
Li Yijie looked at her in front of her, so beautiful that he didn't dare to look at it directly. Ne said: "Tomorrow you will officially marry the original son." Tonight, I'm β to make one last blessing. β
Nangong Xue frowned slightly, a trace of anger passed imperceptibly on her face, and then calmed down and said, "Oh, why don't you say it, it's the last fight?"
Li Yijie said: "If you have to say this, it is not impossible. There are some things that I am afraid that if I don't say them today, I will never have the opportunity to say them again in the future. β
Summoning up the courage, he took out a few scrolls and said, "These days, I am depressed, and the only way to relieve my worries is to relieve my worries." I know that I have no right to destroy your happiness, but seeing you get married, and I pushed you into the arms of others, how can I be willing? I picked up the pen and wanted to write a few words casually, but in my mind, it was you who flashed repeatedly. The way you look when you're happy, when you're angry, and when you're spoiled by me, all have their own characteristics, but they're all cute. So I drew them all. If you say that the leaves on the ground symbolize the insecurity of love, then now I draw it on paper. Even if the paper will turn yellow and be dilapidated, the vivid image will never dissipate. When there is not even a scrap of paper left, there is still my heart, which is still beating for you. As long as I live, it will not stop, and the love for you will never stop for the rest of my life. β
Nangong Xue looked at the bronze mirror, continued to apply grease and powder, and said lightly: "Don't say things like 'a lifetime' at every turn, those are too far away." Only naΓ―ve children like to make empty vows to each other, but we are no longer at the age of acting on impulse. β
Li Yijie hurriedly said: "No, if you are naΓ―ve, I can continue to love you, I would rather be naΓ―ve......! Everyone has it, but what I really love is you, and you are the only one! Don't leave me when I have just understood my heart, and give me another chance, okay? I have been used to you for a long time, and I really can't imagine what kind of mess my life would have become without you?"
Nangong Xue said sharply: "'Adaptation'! That's the word! For me, you're just adapting." But I am a person with feelings and independent thoughts, not an accessory of your life, and I have no obligation to follow you at all times, to be at your disposal! Habits can be changed at any time, it is different from life, it is different from the air, and the sunshine, when I leave you, you can adapt to new things at any time, to accept new girls. I just want ...... At that time, you can be more mature, you can know how to cherish her, don't miss it again...... A relationship that should be yours. β
