After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Chapter 208 On the Long Night Sky

Zhongli Ruoshui left Dingguohou's mansion.

She stood in front of the gate of the Hou Mansion for a long time, but in the end she did not go to Huaxi Bieyuan.

She took Lin Xueer into the carriage and went to Sun Tuozi's small yard.

In the carriage, Lin Xueer looked at Zhongli Ruoshui in surprise.

She is Zhongli Ruoshui's personal servant girl, but she can't enter the study in Dingguohou's mansion, so she doesn't know what happened, but the young lady's eye circles are so red, I'm afraid she suffered a lot when discussing Li Chenan. Wronged.

"The old lady also, does not agree?"

Zhongli Ruoshui shook his head and looked out the car window.

"No, I'm a little confused, let me be quiet."

Lin Xueer shut up, feeling more and more worried.

Because the lady has always been a strong and tenacious person.

Even in the winter when the young lady was ten years old, the young lady was not as depressed as she is now because of the illness she was tortured to death... Madam is also in the study, I am afraid that the young lady and the madam have torn their faces for Li Chenan.

Is it worth it?
Lin Xueer didn't know.

It's just a dull pain in my heart.

It was already dark when the carriage arrived at Miracle Doctor Sun's small courtyard.

Zhong Liruo got out of the carriage and looked up at the night sky. A bright moon had already risen, like a jade plate, very bright and beautiful.

It's just that it looks a little too cold.

Just like my own mood at the moment.

Li Chenan should have gone to Duke Cheng's mansion by now.

How should I tell him about this?

Hiding him?
Let him spend the last time of his life with him?

tell him?
How could he marry a dying woman!

What should I do?

If I knew earlier, where would I hold the literary meeting on March [-]rd!

Without that literary meeting, I would not have known him, he would still stay in Guangling City, running his tavern, perhaps Shen Qiaodie saw that he changed his appearance and the two of them would reconcile.

Or maybe, he will meet another girl in Guangling City, and then spend his whole life comfortably and peacefully in that tavern as he imagined.

He will not come to Kyoto.

Not to mention being involved in the struggle of many forces because of oneself.

I can't stand him!
By the way, the fourth princess Ning Chuchu seems to be interested in him!
Originally, she didn't want Ning Chuchu to see Li Chen'an, but now...the marriage between them has to be facilitated, it can be regarded as the last thing she will do for him before she dies!
Thinking about it this way, Zhongli Ruoshui felt a little more relaxed.

If Li Chen'an becomes the consort of the fourth princess Ning Chuchu, neither Ji Tai nor Ning Zhixing will embarrass him anymore.

Zhongli Ruoshui took a deep breath, and made a decisive decision in his heart——

After Daihui asked Miracle Doctor Sun for proof, if he was indeed as grandma said, he would immediately enter the palace and go to the fourth princess Ning Chuchu's residence!

"Knock!"

Lin Xueer walked over and knocked on the door knocker.

After a while, the door opened, and Xiao Wu stood in front of it.

When he saw Lin Xueer, he was slightly startled, then raised his eyes and saw Zhongli Ruoshui again, and immediately grinned.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..."

He exchanged a few words with Zhongli Ruoshui, and then took Zhongli Rushui's master and servant to the backyard.

Sun Tuozi was sitting and drinking at the stone table in the courtyard.

It's not peach blossom wine or Huapingchun, but the most common loose wine in Kyoto.

He heard footsteps, put down the wine cup and looked up, his eyelids twitched for no reason.

He stood up, feeling a little weird in his heart, because Miss San had no reason to come here alone at this time.

"Miss, please sit down!"

Zhongli Ruoshui said a blessing, with a smile on his face, he couldn't see the sadness just now.

"Thank you Grandpa Sun!"

She sat opposite Sun Tuozi, Xiao Wu ran to the kitchen and got two sets of bowls and chopsticks, but Lin Xueer did not sit down, she was still standing behind Zhongli Ruoshui.

There are only two side dishes with wine on the stone table.

A plate of braised pork head.

A plate of sauced pig tail.

Sun Tuozi didn't ask, he just looked at Zhongli Ruoshui with a smile.

Zhongli Ruoshui didn't go straight to the point, she stretched out her hand and twirled a piece of pig's tail, gnawed it, and said, "I remember when I was in Shuiyunjian, Grandpa Sun liked this pig's tail."

"I still remember Grandpa Sun saying that children should not eat it, and that if they eat it, they will fall behind others in everything they do."

"So I didn't dare to eat it at that time, because I was afraid of falling behind others."

"But later, I saw that your food was so delicious, so I tasted it secretly, and realized that the sauced pig tail turned out to be so delicious...so it became unimportant to fall behind others."

Sun Tuozi grinned, "Eunuch An always loses one or two pig tails every night the next day, so you stole them?"

"Hee hee, Eunuch An was the emperor's former imperial cook, and his skills are really good... Even though he is old now, he is still a master chef in Juxian Pavilion."

"Well, this is his blessing. Eat more, this pig tail is really made by him!"

"No wonder the smell is still so familiar."

"Pig tail in sauce is more delicious when paired with wine. Would you like a glass?"

"it is good!"

Xiao Wu easily understood the spoken language of their conversation. He looked at the master in surprise, then took a cup and poured a glass of wine for Zhongli Ruoshui.

Zhongli Ruoshui took a sip, it was a bit spicy and a bit astringent, it was indeed much worse than Li Chenan's Huapingchun.

But it is not important.

The important thing is that wine can strengthen your courage!

So she drank the glass of wine in one gulp.

Looking at Xiao Wu, pointing to the wine glass, Xiao Wu looked at the master, and Sun Tuozi nodded slightly.

Zhongli Ruoshui ate a piece of pig tail and drank three glasses of wine.

Her face was reddish, but she couldn't see it clearly under the moonlight.

She put down the wine glass, and didn't twirl another pig's tail. She looked at Sun Tuozi, and asked very seriously:
"Grandpa Sun, how long can I live?"

The wine cup in Sun Tuozi's hand was frozen in mid-air.

Xiao Wu opened his mouth dumbly.

Lin Xueer who was behind Zhongli Ruoshui was taken aback, and vaguely guessed something.

It was clear that only ten breaths had passed, but Sun Tuozi and the others felt as if a whole year had passed!

He put down the wine cup, avoiding Zhongli Ruoshui's sight, and asked instead: "Did you go to Hou's mansion today?"

"Ok!"

"Grandpa Sun, tell me the truth, because I still have a lot of things to do, I have to know how long I can live, so that I can arrange the things behind me properly."

"Your grandma told you to come to Kyoto, what you are afraid of is this winter, because this is the fifth year since your last illness!"

"..."

Zhongli Ruoshui withdrew his gaze and looked up at the night sky at the four corners of the courtyard.

The moon has not risen here yet, and this side of the night sky is full of stars.

"So, it's not been two months."

"It's not necessarily true. The medicine Xiaowu picked up from Laoshan Mountain is very good. If you take it on time, you may be able to survive this winter. By the end of spring next year, you will..."

"Just wait until next winter?"

"That's roughly what it means."

"I see!"

Zhongli Ruoshui stood up, said a blessing to Sun Tuozi, and forced a smile: "This wine is not good, in the future... I will ask Chen An to send you some more pictures!"

Sun Tuozi also stood up, "Don't think wildly, there will always be a way!"

"Well, I'll take my leave first!"

"……it is good!"

Xiao Wu sent Zhongli Ruoshui out of the small courtyard, he gestured humbly, Zhongli Ruoshui raised the corner of his mouth, gestured with both hands, and said, "You promised to accompany Chen An to the Mid-Autumn Festival the night after tomorrow, but You must take him back to the other courtyard!"

"No, take it to Shuiyunjian!"

She turned away.

Xiao Wu's clean face was full of tears!
