Chapter 625 Looking for an old nest every year

The breeze is gentle, and the willows are green.

The peaches and plums in the courtyard are blooming just right, clusters swaying gently on the branches, as delicate and bright as haze.The sun is as gentle and gorgeous as a golden gauze, gently covering the entire courtyard.

The maids came and went in a hurry, busy packing up the daily items one by one. Occasionally there was the sound of clothes rubbing against each other, but there was no other movement.

It's a peaceful spring afternoon.

Zhao Xi slightly rolled up the light green window screen and looked out the window.

The swallows came back lightly, whispering under the eaves.

Suyu forced a smile, and said softly: "My lady thinks these swallows are too noisy? This servant will drive them away..."

Before the words finished, Zhao Xiwei put down the window screen, turned his back and said, "Forget it, let them live here."

Suyu was taken aback: "But after you moved out, this yard will be..."

I can't say the rest.

After moving out, there is no owner in this yard. If there is such a swallow's nest, sooner or later someone will poke it down.

Zhao Xiwei didn't speak, but turned his head slightly, and his eyes fell on the dressing table.

The person in the bronze mirror, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, pink face and peach cheeks, is in the prime of youth.

But she experienced parting again.

She raised her finger and gently touched herself in the bronze mirror. Thinking of the past few months, she suddenly felt like a dream.

"Amorous Swallows, looking for old nests every year..." She smiled, and her tone was soft, "Swallows miss the past, as long as they recognize a place to live, they will live forever. Now it took a long time to build such a small nest. Why do you bother driving them away?"

Suyu's eyes turned red, and suddenly she felt her throat tightening.

She is an old man in the palace and cannot freely leave with Zhao Xiwei.This time parting, I don't know when we will see each other again, maybe, we will never see each other again in this lifetime.

There was a coolness in her eyes, she hurriedly turned around, pulled out the handkerchief in her sleeve, and half covered her face.

After choking for several times, he said with a strained voice: "Lady, the carriages and horses are all ready, just waiting outside the gate, don't miss the hour."

"it is good."

Zhao Xiwei agreed, but he didn't move his footsteps. He just stared at the bronze mirror, and after a long while, he raised his hand and landed his fingertips on the makeup box.

Her fingers slowly caressed the jewels inlaid on it, and then pressed lightly with her index finger, and the hidden buckle opened with a "click".

She raised her left arm again, the wide sleeve unfolded, and she fumbled something out of it.

Suyu didn't know what she was going to do, but she didn't urge her anymore, she just cast her puzzled eyes on her palm.

The white jade is transparent and moist, lying quietly in the palm of the hand, like holding a bunch of bright moonlight.

The red tassels hung down and swayed at her slender fingertips, like a bright red glow.

Zhao Xi stared at the jade order slightly, bent his fingers, and put his fingertips close together.

Warm, delicate, pure and flawless.

The dragon carved on it is lifelike, which is a symbol of royal majesty.

She gently slid her fingertips across the small characters above, and silently recited the name in her heart.

He said that as long as she holds this jade order, no matter when and where, he will appear immediately.

But she was not willing to show it when she was in the most danger. Only once, because she was worried about his situation, she had to show the jade order.

And from now on, she will never use it again.

Because she has nothing to do with him anymore, no matter what kind of danger she encounters in the future, he will not show up immediately.

I feel sad.

He will no longer hug her and laugh, no longer squat down to put on her shoes, no longer feed her medicine.

But just won't do it for her again.

He will soon have a new woman.

Will he also make that woman happy?Will he also wear shoes for that woman?Will he also spend time with that woman...

Her heart throbbed suddenly, and the pain made her wake up suddenly.

Yes.

Without one of her, he would have countless women.

He pampered and loved her like this, but what happened?There is no reason at all, just let go if you say let go...

What is she still holding on to this sliver of affection?
She is still very young, she is not enough, and there are many, many possibilities in her life.

And the short time in the East Palace, with his past friendship, is just a relationship with beginning and end, it's not worth her spending the rest of her life in it!
She picked up the jade order, decisively put it into the box, and then "clicked" to close the concealed buckle.

Suyu hesitated to speak: "Lady, you...Your Majesty has spoken, saying that you can take away whatever you like..." Afraid that she wouldn't listen, she simply reminded, "Lady, forgive me for talking too much. It's no better than in the palace, the gold hairpin and jade pendant are sometimes better than silver taels... For example, there will be a banquet in the future, and the lady will also take care of favors..."

Zhao Xiwei put the makeup box on the most conspicuous place on the table, and then smiled and said: "This jade pendant, even if I dare to use it as a favor, no one would dare to accept it!"

She turned around and told Suyu: "Yuan Ce will come over in a while, let him hand this over to His Highness!"

Suyu still hesitated: "The silver rewarded by His Majesty..."

"Take it away!" This time, Zhao Xiwei agreed very readily, she smiled, and said in a relaxed tone: "I deserve it, I will take it away if I don't leave behind, it's not what I deserve , I will return nothing!"

Su Yu was taken aback.

Zhao Xiwei raised his hand and ordered: "It's time, let's go!"

……

In the Chongwen Hall, the discussion was over, and all the officials filed out.

Several servants bowed in with lunch in hand.

During the process of entering and exiting, the clothes were shaking, the steps were soft, and there was a gust of breeze, and the rolls of paper on the desk rustled, which alarmed the guards waiting around, and hurriedly raised their hands to signal the servants to retreat.

The waiter put the food on the table one by one, didn't dare to say anything, turned his heels, and quietly disappeared into the side of the screen.

And Li Xuanye was still sitting in the chair, seemingly unaware of all this.

The guard hesitated for a moment, finally mustered up his courage, and persuaded: "Your Highness, you have been busy for a long time, let's have something to eat first..."

"Yes, Your Highness, you, you can eat something first." Another guard also persuaded him hesitantly.

Li Xuanye was washing his hands and preparing to eat, when suddenly the footsteps outside the door hurried, Yang Yi hurried in: "Your Highness!"

Li Xuanye paused while wiping his hands, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Although Yang Yi came in a hurry, when she was about to reply, she hesitated: "Your Highness, it's noon..."

Li Xuanye frowned subconsciously: "What's wrong?"

As soon as the words came out, his fingers clenched tightly.

At noon, it was time for her to leave the palace.

Yang Yi observed the change in his expression, knowing that he had already understood, so she stopped talking and just waited respectfully.

Li Xuanye threw the cotton towel into the basin, got up and walked down the steps.

Yang Yi waited silently.
