Madam, she always wants to run away

Suddenly, Li Ying felt that the person lying on the bed seemed to move, and she suddenly woke up from a half-dream.

"Husband?" She looked at the man with her eyes closed, and called softly.

no respond.

"Hey——" Li Ying couldn't help but sighed softly, it seemed that the fatigue of the past few days had given her an illusion.

But just when she was about to close her eyes and take a nap again, Li Ying once again saw Xiao Lianchui's hand on the bedside!
Immediately afterwards, she saw two lines of tears flowing from Xiao Lian's tightly closed eyes.

"Husband, are you awake?" Li Ying leaned anxiously in front of Xiao Lian, seeing his eyelids twitching, as if he was having a deep dream.

Back then when Duan Yanlin said that whether he could wake up or not depended on Xiao Lian himself, Li Ying was ready to stay by his side all the time, no matter for a few days, months, or years, as long as he still had a pulse, she would not give up.

Today happened to be the seventh day of his coma.For the past seven days, Li Ying wiped his body every day, smoked medicinal scents, and soaked in medicinal baths. She did everything that could have a slight effect on his condition.

Now he not only moved, but also shed tears, Li Ying almost cried with joy!Although I don't know if he was crying because of something in his dream, was it pain, or sadness?But in any case, it was better than not showing any signs of awakening in the past few days.

After Duan Yanlin heard that the prince was showing signs of waking up, he rushed to check his pulse. He frowned for a long time, showing a perplexed expression: "It's weird, it's weird."

"What's the matter, you should make it clear!" Sometimes Li Ying could be frightened to death by Duan Yanlin.

"There is a saying, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Speak, if you don't know whether to speak or not, speak!"

"Cough... it's such a princess. In fact, a few days ago, my lord's pulse was already very weak..."

"What? Why didn't you tell me?!"

"My minister is afraid that you, my lord, will be overly worried. Fortunately, my lord is lucky. Although his pulse today is not as steady and strong as that of ordinary people, it is much better than the previous few days."

Li Ying's hanging heart was relieved: "When will the prince wake up?"

"This... I don't dare to assert..."

Li Ying looked at Xiao Lian who seemed to be asleep and calm, and sighed softly, "I don't know what kind of dream he is having, he is so reluctant to wake up."

Li Ying was right, Xiao Lian's "ghost" was still floating in that unbelievably real dream.

He watched heartbrokenly as "myself" was blinded by Xiao Chun because he was one step late, assassinated the emperor, burned the queen mother. But foolishly got rid of Xiao Ling for him, and killed so many innocent people...

What made him unable to forgive "myself" the most was that his stupidity indirectly killed Yingying, the Yingying whom he wanted to marry back home with all his heart!
He was angry, he roared, he even wanted to strangle "himself", but he couldn't do anything except cry at Yingying's corpse.

At this moment, how much he hopes to wake up from this nightmare soon!He pinched himself, beat himself, hit the wall, killed himself with a sword... He tried everything, but he still couldn't wake up.

He continued to float in that dream where Yingying was no longer there, like a real lonely ghost.

He watched so coldly that he in his dream turned into a complete lunatic.

After watching Li Ying commit suicide with his own eyes, Xiao Lian begged Xiao Chun to marry them in spite of the world.

After an extremely beautiful and extremely weird wedding, Xiao Lian buried Li Ying with his own hands, and Li Ying's ashes were brought to Lingshan by him. Since then, Xiao Lian never went down the mountain again.

There is one less loyal prince in this world, and one more unknown Taoist priest.

Xiao Chun sent countless lobbyists up the mountain, begging Xiao Lian to come down to preside over the court, but he closed the door and thanked them all.He wholeheartedly seeks the Tao, and only wants to seek a happy afterlife for the beautiful woman who died in vain.

Xiao Lian knew that he had killed too much, and God might not agree to his request, so he added a condition that he would exchange the rest of his life for Li Ying to live again.

This request lasted for another three years.Three years is enough to change the world.

The brutality of the new emperor, the court that has lost its checks and balances, and the great gold that has been encroaching on the country's territory have caused Daling's country to completely collapse in just three years.

When the Dajin soldiers rushed to Lingshan, wanting to kill Xiao Lian, the famous hussar general, they found that there was no figure of Xiao Lian in the Taoist temple?

In the room where Xiao Lian prayed daily, there was only one bone left, and in front of that bone, there was an empty urn.

Just as Xiao Lian emerged, the "ghost" Xiao Lian floating in mid-air suddenly heard a series of familiar voices in the sky.

"Husband, when you wake up, you must tell me what you dreamed about. Speaking of which, this is the first time I've seen you cry."

Later, he felt that he was getting farther and farther away from this dream, and finally, his body completely disappeared into this world.

The next moment, Xiao Lian who was wearing it opened his eyes.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Yingying combing his hair.

Xiao Lian grabbed her hand subconsciously.

"Hiss—" Li Ying made a painful sound.

Xiao Lian immediately let go of his hand when he heard the sound, he looked at his palm in disbelief, he is back!He is no longer a ghost who can't catch Yingying's hand!

"Husband, am I overtired? Why did I see you awake?" Li Ying stopped what she was doing in a daze.

In an instant, the expression on Xiao Lian's face kept changing, longing, guilt, regret, and happiness... Finally, all the emotions mixed together and turned into a silent hug.

Li Ying only felt that her eyes went dark, and the next moment she was hugged tightly to her chest by the person below her.

"Husband..." Li Ying wanted to say that he had just recovered from a serious illness, so don't use such force.

"Hush..." Xiao Lian stopped her from speaking: "Yingying, let me give you a good hug."

Xiao Lian hugged him for a long time, until Li Ying's arm around him was a little numb, and he reluctantly let go.

"Husband, I'll call Imperial Physician Duan to show you." Seeing that Xiao Lian calmed down, Li Ying was about to call for someone.

Xiao Lian grabbed her hand: "Yingying, don't go."

Li Ying paused, and couldn't help turning around and laughing at him: "Husband, why are you pestering people like a child when you wake up?"

Xiao Lian pulled her back to the bed and sat down, rubbing her hands, thinking about how to speak.

"Yingying, during the period of coma, I had a very long dream."

Li Ying blinked and said, "I guessed it, you were still crying in your dream."

Xiao Lian's heart sank, it must be when he saw her commit suicide.

"Yingying, that dream is so real, so real, it seems to have happened in a previous life."

Li Ying asked curiously: "Then tell me, what did you dream about?"

"I dreamed that the day you entered the palace, I didn't come to the imperial garden to pick flowers, I didn't meet you, I didn't marry you, and then everything changed."

Li Ying's complexion changed drastically, what Xiao Lian said, could it be something from a previous life?
"and then?"

"You became an unknown promise in the palace, but by accident, you and I got to know each other."

Those bits and pieces that Li Ying deliberately buried in the past life all broke out at this moment, violently impacting Li Ying's heart, her eyes filled with tears, she knew that he must have dreamed about their past life.

"Even though there is an identity gap that is not tolerated by the world, but Yingying, I still fell in love with you. But before I knew what I wanted, I was sent to the frontier. This parting lasted for two years. When I returned to the capital again, everything changed. There was chaos in the palace. I was deceived by the thief Xiao Chun and became his executioner.

Xiao Chun gave an order to give your parents poisoned wine, I..."

"Stop talking!" Li Ying covered her ears, tearfully stopping Xiao Lian from continuing.

She didn't want to hear him admit that he killed her parents and brother.

"Yingying." Xiao Lian gently pulled her nervous hands away: "They are not dead."

Li Ying opened her eyes in disbelief, and looked at Xiao Lian: "Impossible, Hsinchu..."

"What I saw in Hsinchu were the three corpses I found in advance. Before that, I had already sent your family members out of the capital safely. The fire was just to leave no traces."

Li Ying just felt a "Boom" in his head, how could this be, could it be that he has been wrongly blaming him all this time?
"But when I went to look for you and wanted to send you out of the palace to reunite with them, it was too late. You mistakenly thought that I killed your family and hanged myself..."

Li Ying shook her head in disbelief, and murmured: "How could it be so, how could it be so..."

Xiao Lian struggled to sit up, took Li Ying's hands again, and asked, "Yingying, tell me the truth, you know everything about the dream, don't you?"

Li Ying was still in great shock, she nodded blankly.

Xiao Lian took the stunned Li Ying into his arms, and said softly, "That's why you were so reluctant to marry me in the first place, wasn't it?"

The person in his arms nodded again.

"It's okay." Xiao Lian said with a smile: "Although I have forgotten everything in my previous life, there is one thing engraved in my heart."

"What is it?" Li Ying raised her head and looked at Xiao Lian.

"I am happy with you."

Li Ying just held back his tears, but at this moment his nose was sore from being provoked.

"The first time I saw you, I had a strange feeling. I wanted to marry you. I've identified you in my life."

Li Ying hugged Xiao Lian back, and asked curiously: "Do you think God also felt sorry for us, so he let us be reborn and meet again?"

"God is not so kind." Xiao Lian said disdainfully.

"Then what are you talking about?"

"After you died, I left the world of mortals and became a Taoist priest. I pray for you every day, and I vow to use the rest of my life to exchange you and me for a complete life."

"Are you stupid!" Li Ying complained, but the tears still couldn't stop streaming down. Thinking of how such a noble person like him lived such a cold and lonely life after his death, for three whole years, She couldn't help feeling distressed.

"Without you, what's the point of me living alone?" Xiao Lian looked into her eyes and said seriously: "Yingying, no matter how much you pay, it's a blessing to have our encounter in this life."

"It turns out that it's not God that I should be grateful for, but you." Li Ying said, boldly kissing his chin, thinking that Xiao Lian, who had just woken up, would not do anything to her.

But she was wrong.

This kiss brushed Xiao Lian's skin like a feather, and the numb feeling spread all over his body in an instant, awakening his sleeping desire.

He held the back of her head and kissed her back heavily.

Hearing his breathing getting heavier, Li Ying felt that something was wrong.

"Hmm...um..." Li Ying made a struggling voice: "You are just right...no..."

Of course, there is a price to pay for the absurdity.When Duan Yanlin saw the torn wound on Xiao Lian's shoulder and Li Ying who was blushing and silent, he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

With trembling fingers, he pointed at the two children who seemed to have done something wrong: "You...you..."

"Doctor Duan, it's all my fault." As a man, Xiao Lian took the initiative to admit punishment.

Duan Yanlin flicked his sleeves and said angrily, "It's just nonsense!"

But after all, fortunately Xiao Lianzi recovered quickly after waking up, except for some cracks in the old wound, there was nothing serious.After Duan Yanlin changed the gauze for him, he reminded him thousands of times that he should not do that ridiculous thing again until the wound fully recovered.

Li Ying glared at Xiao Lian fiercely.My reputation in my whole life is ruined in the hands of this person today!

*
The news of Xiao Lian's recovery quickly spread back to Beijing, and the new emperor sent an urgent order, asking him to return to Beijing immediately.Now that the foreign enemies have been eliminated, and the government is waiting for prosperity, many things need to be decided by Xiao Lian. The most important thing is that this time, it seems that the empress dowager's time is really coming.

The first thing the two did after they arrived in Beijing without stopping was to visit the empress dowager in the palace.When the Queen Mother heard that her grandson and daughter-in-law had entered the palace, she woke up from a coma for ten hours a day, and even ate a big bowl of rice.

It's just that everyone knows well that this is probably a flashback.

"Imperial Grandmother!" As soon as Xiao Lian entered the palace door, he knelt down towards the Queen Mother with a plop.

"Lian'er, what are you doing, get up!"

"The child is not filial, not only can't serve you, but also makes you worry." Everyone deliberately concealed the news of Xiao Lian's injury from the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother was not stupid. arrive.

"Aren't you all right? What are you talking about doing now? Come here and let Aijia take a closer look." The queen mother stroked Xiao Lian's head lovingly, and said: "Whenever Aijia is worried, Aijia will take care of you." Thinking about it, Yinger is by your side, she will definitely help you out of danger."

Li Ying knelt at the Empress Dowager's feet, choked up and said, "Don't worry, Grandmother, the two of us will definitely take care of each other in this generation, and we will never leave."

"Not only in this life, but in the next life, Lian'er and Ying'er will be your grandson and daughter-in-law."

"Okay, okay." The Queen Mother held the hands of the two contentedly.

At the night of Xushi, the empress dowager passed away peacefully in the palace at the age of sixty.
