Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 162 I Admit I Love You

Suddenly the wind blows and whizzes by.

Liu Yunxiang's voice drifted away with the wind, leaving no trace.

Going forward, the terrain is getting higher and higher, and the wind is getting stronger and stronger.Liu Yunxiang huddled in Yan Mu's arms, wanting to go back.

"arrive."

"Eh?"

Yan Mu lifted his cloak, bowed his head and smiled: "The sky is among the clouds."

Liu Yunxiang turned his head, and saw the blue sky, surrounded by white clouds, moving with the wind, rolling, and then dissipating in the sparkling waves.

This is a lake in the desert. The water of the lake is clear, and the surface of the lake is like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.Looking at the distance, Populus euphratica stands by the lake one by one, with golden crowns on them. When a gust of wind passes, thousands of golden leaves fly up one after another, dance in mid-air, and finally fall into the lake, like the clouds scattered among the white clouds. golden light.

"It's so beautiful!" Liu Yunxiang was stupefied and exclaimed unconsciously.

Yan Mu hugged Liu Yunxiang off the horse and walked towards the lake.

As she walked down, she also saw a tree that was already bare.Although the leaves are all gone, there are many red ribbons on them, dancing in the wind, becoming a beautiful scenery in the desert.

"It is said that a hundred years ago, a princess of Beijin fell in love with a general guarding the border in Dayong. They built a mud house on the edge of Yunjing Lake, and the two lived here for ten years. Later, Beijin and Dayong fought. , the two shouldered the hatred of the country and the family, so they could only be forced to separate. When they parted, Princess Beijin tied two pieces of red silk together, and then hung them on the pomegranate tree she planted herself, praying like a god. She said that she did not expect the next life, I just hope to be reborn, she is still the princess, he is still the general of the enemy country, even if it is only ten years, she is still her, he is also him, not anyone." Yan Mu said.

When he came under the tree, Liu Yunxiang looked at the bare tree. The tree was very thick, it seemed to be a hundred years old, and it was really a pomegranate tree.There are many tied red silks hanging on it, covering the whole pomegranate tree.

"Some people really believe it." She said.

"Ah."

Liu Yunxiang brushed the strips of red silk with his hand, and couldn't help wondering whether Yan Mu in the previous life also hung one here, so she was reborn.Don't ask for the fate of the next life, just ask for the continuation of this life.

Liu Yunxiang lowered his head and saw that he happened to be wearing a red outer garment, so he tore off the two red laces on the upper garment, tied them together, and hung them on the pomegranate tree.

"Who are you with?" Yan Mu asked with narrowed eyes.

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Naturally with you."

"Me?" He still didn't believe it.

Liu Yunxiang was helpless, "Who else?"

"Lu Changan?"

"I'm just friends with him."

Yan Mu pushed Liu Yunxiang onto the tree trunk, lowered his head and stared closely at her eyes, "You...you love me?"

Liu Yunxiang sighed, she didn't tell him in the last life, nor in this life.

"I love you and only you."

Yan Mu's eyes trembled, and they were a little moist, like a child who has been wronged and then forgiven by an adult.He stared at her, his lips parted as he tried to say something.

It took a long time to make a sound, but Liu Yunxiang covered it with his hand.

"do not fool me."

He shook his head, but she still held it tight.

"Yan Mu, even if you tell me, I won't believe it."

How could she believe that he in the previous life abandoned her and gave his life to the little golden concubine.

She was lonely for half her life, she resented him and hated him, and finally the resentment and hatred faded, and so did the love.But after being reborn, she fell in love with him again, but this time, she didn't want to be so stupid, holding the vision of growing old together, waiting to be abandoned by him.

So love is love, but she won't have any more thoughts.

"In the last life, I loved you."

"In this life, I still love you."

"But Yan Mu, let it be like this, don't promise me."

He couldn't afford it, Liu Yunxiang let out a long sigh.

There were sparks in his eyes, and after hearing her words, he was eager to refute, but gradually, thinking of a lot, the sparks gradually dimmed, and finally went out, and he became lonely.

The road back to the city was a bit long, and by the time we got back to the post house in Yangui City, the sun had already set in the west.It's dark here, even if it's westward, it will take a long time to get dark.

They got off their horses, Jiang Yuan probably heard the sound of horseshoes and came out in a hurry.

"Master, the palace has come to order."

Yan Mu took Liu Yunxiang off his horse and entered the inner courtyard. It was Eunuch Li who was beside the emperor to announce the decree.He labored for thousands of miles, and traveled day and night for more than a month to announce the decree. The weight of this decree is not light.

"Eunuch is tired!" Yan Mu stepped forward and said.

Eunuch Li was over sixty years old, with full hair, and when he saw Yan Mu, his face showed kindness.

"Qi Ye, you have suffered."

After Yan's house was confiscated, Shangguan Xu adopted Yan Mu and often took him into the palace.Yan Mu was favored by the Empress Dowager, and he often went to the palace, and the emperor sometimes asked him to go over to ask about his homework.

Eunuch Li was entrusted by Shangguan Xu to take good care of him in the palace.

After Eunuch Li finished speaking, he saw Liu Yunxiang next to Yan Mu, and took a few glances, but he didn't ask anything, but gave Yan Mu a portrait.

"This is?"

"Before proclaiming the decree, Lord Qi please take a look at this portrait."

Yan Mu didn't know why, when he opened the portrait, he was stunned.In the painting is a portrait of a woman, a twenty-eight-year-old girl with a pretty appearance, but...but very similar to Jin You.

If Liu Yunxiang's eyes are a little bit like Jin You's, then the woman in the painting has seven or eight points in terms of facial features and demeanor.

Yan Mu subconsciously glanced at Liu Yunxiang, then frowned and asked Li Eunuch, "What do you mean?"

Eunuch Li sighed, and then took out the imperial decree, "Yan Mu, accept the decree."

This imperial decree is for marriage, the woman in the painting is Su Ruyan, the daughter of General Pingxi, who is also Jin You's cousin, the emperor assigns this Miss Su to Yan Mu, and they will get married as soon as he returns to Beijing.

Eunuch Li finished announcing the decree and said, "Commander Yan, accept the decree."

Yan Mu threw away the portrait, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't need the Emperor to worry about my marriage."

Eunuch Li frowned, "Seventh Master, don't be so angry, is it possible that you want to resist the edict?"

"Oh, then let him give me the death penalty."

"Qiye!" Eunuch Li stomped his feet anxiously, "Is your life the only one on your shoulders? Why don't you think about Miss Su?"

Looking at the portrait, Yan Mu slowly widened his eyes.

"The little concubine Jin gave birth to a dragon heir for the emperor, but some people gossip about you and the little concubine Jin. It's not that the emperor doesn't believe you and the concubine Jin. It's just that you have never been married, and he only cares about your marriage."

Eunuch Li's words could not be more clear, Yan Mu resisted the order, not only would he die, but also the little golden concubine.As for why it was Su Ruyan, the emperor seemed to make up for it, but it was actually an insult and took the opportunity to beat Yan Mu.

He is the emperor, no matter what his status is, Yan Mu must submit to him and obey his orders without any disobedience.

Yan Mu clenched her fists, looked at Liu Yunxiang again, she let out a long sigh, and left him to enter the house.

After a long time, he finally bent his back and accepted the imperial edict.

"The minister leads the order."

After Eunuch Li settled down, Yan Mu came to Liu Yunxiang's room.

She was just playing around, when she heard the sound, she raised her head, took a look at Yan Mu, and then smiled.

"I know you can't help yourself."

"..."

"I also know you have me in your heart."

"..."

"I understand what you want to say."

"..."

"But the road you took is too difficult, and I don't want to go with you."

Yan Mu was full of words, but was finally interrupted by Liu Yunxiang's last ruthless words, and couldn't speak anymore.
