Chapter 160 Lin Yuan (23)
I only have memory left, and I can't forget it.

Tan Nu understands her. In fact, her strength is all in disguise. Once she really loved someone, it doesn't mean that it will end when it ends.She was still fighting at the last moment when she decided to get rid of the child. If the national teacher could show up at that time, she would not give up, and she would not make trouble like this today.Too many mistakes made this relationship doomed to be full of ups and downs.Now it's time to see the real chapter, she said she hated, wishing that that person would die, but she was planning to escape before predicting that he would lose, because she didn't dare to see him lose.If you are really ruthless, you should stand on the sidelines, shouldn't you?It can be seen that she still loves him, it's just that she can't get over that hurdle, and her anger is hard to calm down.

"You go to the front hall first, I'll keep an eye on it here." As soon as Tan Nu finished speaking, a gust of wind swept over, and the wind was full of hostility.Thanks to Lian Deng's sharp eyes and quick hands, with a flick of his hand, a willow leaf dart was nailed to the nearby plane tree with a bang.Tan Nu was still in shock, turned around and cursed, "What a shameless old demon, you want to kill me!"

His purpose is very clear, "The lotus lantern can't go away, stay here and watch our master and apprentice fight it out. The winner gets you, how about it?"

Treating her as a trophy depends on whether she is willing or not.She didn't want to be there at first, but since she couldn't leave, she had to face it.

"I have nothing to do with your master-student killing each other. This is the Princess Mansion. If you want to fight back to your Taishang Shrine, don't dirty my place." She said solemnly, "I also advise the national teacher, the internal strife is now, It is really an unwise move. Your purpose is the same. Without scriptures, no one can live long. Why not turn the fight into a jade silk, after all, a master and a disciple, a good beginning also needs a good end."

The national teacher's request is very simple. He looked at the apprentice in front of him and said with a smile: "It is not difficult to extend your life, even if there is only half a copy of the "Crossing the Dead", I can do it. But before, you I should talk about the conditions. I will continue my life for you, and the lotus lamp must go with me, what do you think?"

He laughed after hearing this, "Master regards me as a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. I was raised by Master, and Master knows my temper. Half of the scriptures can only bring back half of my life, so don't worry about it. Master I know what Zun's current situation is like, and why bother to embarrass her after just a year or two of happiness."

Because of the loss of one soul and one soul, everything is based on my own happiness.He squinted at the lotus lantern, and there was nothing cute about it, so he said bluntly: "I want her, no matter whether she lives or dies, she must be with me."

The implication is that even if she dies, she should be dragged to hell as a companion, right?So there is no need to argue anymore, Lian Deng watched him draw out the three-edged sword, jump up and kill him, under the night, his figure was vigorous and his hair was as long as training.

He has always been calm and elegant, no matter how big things are, he can laugh them off.This time I was in a hurry, and I could discuss anything I wanted with him, except for the lotus lantern.Whether it's him or the master, they are just as obsessed with life. If there is no tomorrow, no one can give her happiness.She should find someone better to live and die with her.Sometimes living too long is not a good thing. Watching the one you love die first, this feeling must be heart-wrenching.So marrying an ordinary person and living an ordinary life is best for her.

He wanted to keep her wholeheartedly, and his own life and death had long been ignored.He did something wrong, was too eager for success, and rashly called the dead soul back.He never expected that the lotus lamp would actually become the master's obsession, and he couldn't exchange her for it, so he would rather die himself than settle it with his own hands.But fighting against a mentor is far from as simple as imagined.Everything about him comes from him, and he is familiar with every move, every style, and every formation.The only thing that can be fought is personal cultivation. Fortunately, there are still things that can be used to fight.It's a pity that people with weak skills, people with emotions and desires are always more scruples than walking dead.

With punches and formations, he is better than blue.But no matter how big the method is, it needs internal strength as the foundation. Lian Deng watched from the side, burning with anxiety.Their confrontation is probably no less powerful than a hundred thousand troops fighting.The collision of force and force, the surrounding air flow surging, flying sand and rocks.Gradually, the dust became cloudy, and she couldn't see clearly, she raised her sleeve to cover her eyes, trying hard to find Lin Yuan's figure.However, the wind was too strong, the light was dim, the torch was swayed by the blowing, and the new leaves on the branches rustled.The Lingtai Langs kept an eye on the battle situation, their hands were sweating with their weapons, and they wanted to help, but they couldn't do anything.Suddenly, a burst of strong light burst out, piercing people's eyes, and dissipated in an instant, everything stopped, and there was only one person in the center of the storm, holding a long sword, kneeling down.

Lian Deng's heart was about to jump out, carefully distinguishing his clothes, fortunately they were white, and he was still alive.

The Lingtai Langs swarmed up and helped him up.He was seriously injured, and the front of his snow-white robe was stained with blood.He looked up and searched in the crowd, saw her from a distance, made sure that she was safe and sound, settled down, and gave her a twisted smile.

She bit her lip, struggling hard in her heart, not knowing whether she should step forward or not.There was no longing in his eyes, probably because he didn't want to embarrass her, so he quickly lowered his eyes and fell silent.

The crowd flustered for a while, calling out to the seat again and again, but he didn't respond to them, probably because he fainted.Fangzhou called out to Lian Deng, "Quickly clear out a room to accommodate the national teacher."

The lotus lantern was in chaos, and it was the mansion chief Shi who made up his mind and led the people into the nearby wing room.She stood there in a daze, and Fuju took half a step slowly, picking up the scattered iron coupons of Danshu and putting them together, all in vain.She lowered her hands in regret, "This game is over, there is no hope anymore."

Even the remaining half was destroyed, so his death was irretrievable.Lian Deng's hands and feet were stiff, and she slumped to the ground, Fu Ju said: "Your Highness, do you really have no old feelings for the seat?"

She was in a daze, and it took a long time before she managed to stand up, staggered a few steps and then stopped, turning her head and said: "Tell the medical officer to treat his wounds, and return to the shrine as soon as he recovers, so as not to be gossiped about."

Fuju didn't expect her to be so unfeeling, and he stood there for a moment, not knowing how to respond.She didn't look at him, and walked to the backyard with Tan Nuxiang. Fuju was in a hurry, and said loudly: "Even if the seat died because of today's battle, doesn't His Highness care?"

She paused for a while, but she didn't stop, but went slowly.

Tan Nu said: "Aren't you really going to see him? He seems to be seriously injured. You just tied a hairpin not long ago. This time there must be new and old injuries."

She sat down on the brocade mat, lost her mind for a while, then raised her head and asked her, "Will he die?"

Tan Nu was discouraged, "Isn't death a matter of time!"

"The Book of Crossing the Dead is gone, even if he would rather lose his soul, he won't be able to come back." She stood up, spinning in the center of the earth in a daze, "There are still two months..."

Tan Nu couldn't bear to see her like this, and said softly: "Don't you know your own heart? Do you still love him or not? If you love him, go and see him, cherish the remaining time, and don't regret it in the future."

After she left, Lian Deng was still calculating the time at a loss, and the more she calculated, the more frightened she became.Go back and sit alone under the lamp, the casement is open, and the night is silent.Occasionally, the curtain fluttered, and she turned her head to see that the curtain was full of wind and moon.

Should I go see him?As Tan Nu said, cherish the remaining time.But how to solve the knot in her heart?Sometimes when I think about it, I have been wronged all the way, and I don’t care about one more time.However, thinking of her Bao'er, she felt extremely sad.She resented him, and she resented herself.It was because she was too impulsive, if she waited a little longer, maybe it would be fine.But without this turmoil, when would she be able to see him?How long can you endure the torment?So cause and effect cycle, each other is at fault.Her heart wasn't hard enough, seeing him get hurt again and again, slowly those hatreds disintegrated.She just couldn't let it go, and she was unwilling, as if the punishment for him was not enough, she just wanted to continue to torture him.

She didn't go to see him, not daring to see his weak appearance.The palace sent imperial physicians, all of whom were to treat the emperor, and their medical skills were very reliable.She didn't step into the wing room, but only stopped the medical officers outside the wall.Asked how the national teacher was injured, the imperial physician crossed his hands and said: "The national teacher injured an internal organ, and after all...with age, it will heal very slowly."

With age... His appearance has not changed, and his body is already old, so his self-healing ability is almost gone.She stood there bursting into tears, making the imperial physician terrified, and said in a loud voice: "This official deserves to die, this official is incompetent, and this official will do everything he can to heal the national teacher, please rest assured, Your Highness."

She waved her hand, "Go and decoct the medicine, the national teacher is waiting to use it."

The Chief Physician bowed in salute, bowed and retreated.

She leaned her back against the wall, and the icy chill penetrated through the fabric of her back, and she couldn't help shivering.Looking up at the sky, the sky is vast, like a burned out Ru kiln holder.A group of pigeons flew over, flapping their wings, and quickly soared into the sky.She clawed at the wall with her ten fingers, feeling numb in her heart, not knowing what to do next.

He stayed in the Princess Mansion, Cuiwei also came to visit him, and was a little embarrassed to meet her outside the courtyard.However, he made up his mind to discuss with her, so he saluted her first, and then asked her to take a step to speak.

Although Lian Deng didn't like her, but he came to the door as a guest and didn't make things difficult for her.Invite her into the side hall, and offer her tea with hand gestures, "Madam, if you have something to say, you may as well speak directly."

Cuiwei said: "The last time you came to the shrine, I prevented you from meeting out of selfishness. I didn't expect such a big change to happen. I really didn't expect it. Now I apologize to you, and I don't think you are willing to accept it. What you have done is indeed unforgivable. Brother, thinking about the old feelings, did not abolish my cultivation and expelled me from the Jingu. All of this is my own fault. But although I am not in the Jingu, my heart is still there. Last night I know all about the duel between the master and him. The iron voucher of the alchemy book was destroyed, and the soul of the master was scattered. It is not good to wander around without a master's body. It's Senior Brother, he doesn't have much time, do you know?"

Lian Deng had mixed feelings in his heart, nodded and said: "There are still two months."

"So what are your plans?"

What do you plan to do?She has no clue, how can she have any plans!
"The first volume of "The Book of Crossing the Dead" is gone, and the second volume is nowhere to be found. I'm just an ordinary person, and I can't help him even if I try to save him."

Cuiwei looked at her expression, and tentatively said: "Although we can't bring him back from the dead, we can buy some time to continue searching for scriptures."

Lian Deng's heart was full of grief, which could not be relieved, and when she heard her say this suddenly, she shuddered, "What does madam mean?"

"I also ordered the witch to find out the whereabouts of the scriptures, but no matter what, it's better to have more time... As far as I know, half of his skills are with you. Is there such a thing?"

Lian Deng blushed, then thought about the fact that the child has already been conceived, and there seemed to be nothing to avoid, so she nodded generously, "If I can recover my skills, can I let him live for another year or a half?"

Cuiwei said yes, "At least [-]% of the body can recover."

This is great news, the sudden dawn in the darkness makes people tremble with excitement.She moved forward, "Madam, please advise, how can I return my kung fu to him?"

Cuiwei blushed and fell silent, thinking about it, it was not easy to speak.Seeing that she was full of eagerness, there was nothing to be ashamed of at the moment of life and death, so he found a more roundabout way to remind her, "He has lived in the shrine for a long time, and once his material desires are exhausted, his energy will be insufficient. To save him, you need to use your vitality to warm him, open up the small Zhou Tian, ​​and refine Qi. This is the only shortcut, you don’t need to build a foundation in a hundred days, and you can get twice the result with half the effort.”

Lian Deng couldn't understand the terminology of their shrine at all, she explained it vividly, but she was at a loss, and said awkwardly: "Madam, can you speak more generally? I don't understand Xiao Zhoutian and Jianji, Madam only needs to Tell me what to do, and I'll do what I can."

Cuiwei was stunned for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed, and finally had no choice but to say bluntly: "How did he distribute his cultivation base to you at the beginning, you can do it again in the same way. Remember to let the qi and blood flow down, transport it to the dantian, and then enter it. In his body. If you can't knead for a while, just...do it again. As long as the method is right, the effect will be immediate."

After she finished speaking, she was relieved, then Zhuo Zhuo looked at her, but Lian Deng was dumbfounded.Isn't this the art of taking and filling in the house!The way is very simple, go wherever you come from, that is to say, you have to "that" with him once.She blushed almost to the point of burning, embarrassed and helpless.Cuiwei was much calmer, and smiled and said: "The only thing you need is a ceremony. In fact, you are no different from husband and wife. This is saving lives, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Are you willing to watch him die? Your Highness, time Limited, when he is really old, even if you want to save him, it will be too late."

It's really strange to have such a fight with him, and to do that kind of thing now.She faltered for a long time, "Is there no other way?"

Cuiwei shook her head, "This is the only way to return the skill to him."

It seemed that she had to do it, she gritted her teeth, and asked herself if she wanted to save him, and the answer was yes.Then don't hesitate anymore, although the method is embarrassing, but when things come to an end, you don't have to worry about so much.

She said yes, got up and said, "I'll go now."

She has a vigorous temper, Cuiwei stared at her back in a daze, and let go of her heart that had been suspended for more than a hundred years.Marriage is destined by God, not yours, and you can't grab it even if you try your best.It would be better to fulfill them, and when she finds the "Sutra of Crossing the Dead", she will try her best to summon him back.

The lotus lamp passed through the wing room, and the Lingtai men were all there, sitting in the courtyard in disarray, and when they saw her coming, they hurriedly got up to greet her.She was embarrassed to say the purpose of this trip, but just asked them, "Is the national teacher okay now?"

Fang Zhou said: "I woke up at the fifth watch, and then I fell asleep all the time, and I haven't spoken yet."

"Have you taken the medicine?"

Fuju said: "I've eaten it, but it's a pity that it hasn't improved. It seems that his spirit is still very bad."

She lifted her skirt up the steps, took off her cloud-toed shoes and said, "I'll go in and have a look. You guys haven't closed your eyes all night. I have someone prepare a house and refreshments. Go and rest after eating! I'm here, so you don't have to worry about it. "

Everyone knew about her entanglement with Lin Yuan, so she suddenly changed her mind, and everyone was overjoyed.Not really for the breaks, just to make room for them.Fu Ju hurriedly said hello, quickly summoned the four officials, and pushed them out all at once.Lian Deng turned around to look, and when they were all gone, ordered the servants to close the gate of the courtyard.

Standing under the eaves, she was a little nervous. This kind of thing didn't happen naturally, which made her feel somewhat at a loss.She hesitated for a while, and finally opened the door and went in.Going around layers of curtains, I saw him lying on the couch, with the same snow-covered face and long eyebrows like crescent knives.The eyelashes are thick and dense, quietly, quietly is a painting.

She lingered on her feet, feeling a bit of a timid hesitation close to nostalgia.Stopped a few steps away from him, and judged his complexion. His complexion was not good, probably due to excessive blood loss, and his lips were very pale.He pressed his hands on the quilt, and only a little fingertips were exposed from the cuffs. It was the first time she found out that he was so fragile, and her heart twitched fiercely.

There is not much time left for her to think about it.She stepped forward and sat down on the edge of the couch.He seemed to be in a deep sleep, and if it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, it would be hard to tell that he was still alive.This face... so familiar.She drew from a distance, eyebrows, eyes, nose bridge, lips, chin... as she described, she burst into tears.

This is an endless torment that can bring a dying person back to life.I don't know who told her about this method. He was afraid that she would not accept it, so he never told her about it.Now that she came here voluntarily, it is enough to prove that she still loves him!

Without speaking, he touched her hand and clasped her fingers tightly.

She struggled to find her underwear, her arms and legs were exhausted, she could barely support herself, her arms were trembling.For some reason, the enthusiasm cooled down, and the sense of distance came quietly again.She grabbed the myrobalan and put it on, and tied the strap on the back with both hands behind her back. He grabbed her wrist and called her in a low voice, "The lotus lamp..."

She hummed, "I should go."

"Ago……"

"The past is wiped out, and no one owes anyone from today." She curled up her hair and looked back at him. "The palace is very worried about your injury. I will send a message to report your safety. You can go back when you recover. Don't worry about what happened today."

What do you mean don't take it to heart?He felt like an abandoned wife, fearing that he would not perform well in all aspects, and waited anxiously for her to express her opinion.As a result, after waiting and waiting, nothing changed.

"I thought you had forgiven me." He said sadly, "You can't accept me, why do you still care about my life?"

She couldn't answer, how could she explain it to him?She was afraid, this time she was only going through a difficult time temporarily, and there was still life and death to come. She had already become a frightened bird, and she had no strength to face it anymore.So it's better to be ruthless and settle it once and for all.She put on the cloak, tied on the skirt, and said calmly: "It's just a fish-and-water sex. It's not like I haven't had it before. I will return your inner strength to you, and you can live for a while. If you can find the remaining half Even if you lose a soul and a soul like your master, at least you can still live."

What is this? He felt sad and couldn't speak, but he just held her hand and didn't let go.

She looked back at him, and said sadly: "I don't want to watch you die, after all, I loved you. You have to be good, don't worry about anything for the rest of the time, and focus on looking for "The Book of Crossing the Dead". I will also help to find out Yes, I hope there will be a whereabouts, and you can find it so that you can continue your life."

"It's useless to get it back, no one will use it." He smiled, and let go of his hand, "You go, don't forget to drink Bizitang."

She said yes, and moved out, but every step seemed to weigh a thousand catties.She is also introspecting, is she too selfish?In order to protect himself, he shunned him.No one could understand the contradictions in her heart, and she couldn't bear such consumption after being heartbroken again and again.Maybe I should really find a man to marry, just like Tan Nu, who has an ordinary and simple happiness.His breaking into her life was a deliberate plan for him, but it was an accident for him.Now that the two are really cleared up, she should start to live again.

Tan Nu's wedding date is just around the corner, and the mansion has become very busy.Lian Deng didn't know much about the etiquette and customs of the Central Plains. Looking at Fu Mu and the stewards, he felt that the project was huge and complicated.Tan Nu didn't want to worry about her own affairs, she leaned against the lotus lamp to watch the excitement, as if she was throwing her hands away from the shopkeeper, with a loose smile, as if everything had nothing to do with her.

The servants in the palace came and went frequently, so they couldn't come out to help around, and thought about it every day, and found that this pair of vases was not bad, so I asked someone to send it over.Tomorrow I got a few high-quality silk silks, and thought it would be good to make clothes for Tan Nu, so I ordered the eunuch to send them, so although Tan Nu didn't have any imperial seals, the wedding was no worse than that of officials' families.Xiao Chaodu's mother came from a decent background, and was also a member of the royal family, so she was seriously considered a princess.Now that the in-laws are recognized, they will be extra careful in handling them.How to arrange the courtyard of their young couple depends on Tan Nu's wishes. They sent someone to invite the young lady, but Tan Nu had no choice but to run back and forth. Come back here one day before the wedding, and save the old lady from sending someone to invite you."

Tan Nu is very busy and can no longer accompany her like before. Everyone has their own things to do, and she is the only one who has nothing to worry about.Fortunately, there was a turn around, she was trapped in the Daming Palace and was in a panic. If she missed her, she would send someone to pick her up. A small banquet would be held on the Wangxian Terrace next to the Taiye Pool. The two of them would sit facing the wind and enjoy the scenery on the lake. , or recruit two Liyuan children to sing for them.

Na Luochang grew up a lot and was no longer wrapped in swaddling clothes. He was very cute with a tiger head and a tiger head.Lian Deng hugged him and fed him some fruit puree, and he fell asleep when he was full.Zhuan asked the wet nurse to take him down to rest, and leaned on the pillow and sighed, "I used to ride horses in rivers and lakes, love and hate, what a happy life! Now, I have become a bird in a cage, and I can no longer fly."

Lian Deng watched the palace servants make rouge, propped his head and said to her leisurely, "Do you still want to fly now? Now that you have a husband and son, live your life well!"

She hummed lazily, "Two days ago King Zhongshan sent two girls into the palace, but His Majesty hid them, and I haven't seen them until now."

Lian Deng raised his eyes, "Is it a harem? Canonized?"

Zhuanzhuan picked the golden step, and rubbed the pointed tip against his scalp, "That's not true, but it's a matter of time, if you don't want to be canonized, what are you doing hiding him? Men in this world are unreliable, it's okay when you are a king Some, it’s different after becoming an emperor.”

In fact, it is very difficult for these people who grew up in the gold and silver bushes to keep themselves clean.Immersed for too long, it is bound to be passionate.Even for a clean person like Chenhe, there are several concubines in the room, let alone the emperor.

She turned her head and squinted to look at the distant scenery. The weather is fine today, and there are thousands of shimmering lights on the Taiye Pool.The weather is getting warmer, and the new leaves of the lotus are slowly stretching out, and the immature and lush green gradually bring out the breath of summer.She sighed deeply, "He doesn't want you to know, so you just pretend not to know, now you can't ignore it and go back to the desert."

"That's not necessarily true." Zhuan Zhuan pouted his lips high, "I didn't expect him to love me alone, after all, he came from a noble family. It was he who swore to the sky that I would be the only one in the future and would never go to the house again. There are people in it. Now that the mansion has become bigger, he feels that the house is empty, so he plans to break his oath."

Maybe he didn't think that he would be the emperor at the beginning!Lian Deng smiled, there was no trivial matter in the Tian Family, and they were having troubles, even if she turned around, she couldn't give her any advice, the present is not what it used to be, it is really sad.She could only persuade her, "It's good to be careful, you have Na Luoyan, and your son will be promising in the future, what are you worried about?"

Zhuanzhuan shook his head slowly, "I don't think it's good to be born in the emperor's family..."

Lian Deng knew that she was going to talk about the six sons of the late emperor, so she hurriedly cut off the conversation, "This rouge is so beautiful, how did you do it?"

The insider said: "Save the peony petals from last year and bury them with snow. This year, on the day of Lichun, they are dug out, pestled and twisted, and then added with mica and pearl powder. After seven or seven days in the shade, it is finished."

She snorted, "It's really hard work."

The wife looked around with a smile, "Our empress is the most generous. She made it and sent a box to His Highness, okay?"

Turning around and nodding repeatedly, "That's natural."

The wife went away with the gauze, and Lian Deng told her to turn around, "There is nothing simple in the palace, you must pay attention to it from today, and you can't speak casually in front of others. In case someone listens to you , add fuel and vinegar to your majesty's black complaints, once or twice he doesn't care, and the more times, he will inevitably feel bad for you. You were also very in love at the beginning, since you love each other, trust him, don't make trouble, don't let Relatives and enemies are quick."

Zhuanzhuan blinked his big eyes and looked at her, "So you understand the truth, but you never thought of putting it on yourself."

She was stunned for a moment, thinking she was talking about Lin Yuan, but their problem was much more complicated than hers, how could they be able to distinguish clearly in a few words!

She lowered her eyes and fiddled with the dragon's whiskers hanging from the juniper fan, but she didn't answer her.Turning around and moving forward, sitting side by side with her, he whispered: "Is it really over for you and him?"

She trembled in her heart, "So what if it doesn't end?"

"If it's over, let's find someone seriously! Your Majesty joined me yesterday, and the newly appointed Huainan Jiedu envoy has excellent character, talent, learning, and appearance, and you are just right for you. If you want to, can you meet me?" ? If you think it’s okay, follow him to Yangzhou in the future, and you will be happy when you leave Chang’an.” As he spoke, he looked at her with pity, “You force yourself to smile every day, thinking I’m blind? Don’t force yourself like this, your heart is empty Just think about him every day. Only by filling up there can you concentrate on loving another person. You have always been very decisive, a hero, so don’t stumble on this. How? See you, please give me a correct sentence!”

Lian Deng thought about her words over and over again, and it was actually not unreasonable.She needed someone to distract her, and if she moved on, she might be able to let go of her feelings for him.She didn't think about the previous agreement of love than gold, if she really died because of this, it means that her luck is so.She said yes, "It's nothing to find a chance to meet."

Zhuan Zhuan suddenly stood up from the stands, and turned around to beckon her, "Cao Cao Cao Cao will be there soon, choosing a day is worse than hitting the day, I think today is a good day."

Lian Deng thinks that they must be in collusion, first let Zhuan Zhuan call her into the palace, and then the emperor will bring someone to meet unexpectedly, it is really a perfect plan.She leaned on the railing and looked down. It was a warm spring day and the warm breeze brought a warm, young official with a cape and a round collar robe slowly approaching on the embankment. His face could not be seen clearly, but his figure was as tall and tall as a pine tree.The emperor waved his hand towards them, and the gentleman also raised his head, his facial features were handsome and elegant, and his eyes were filled with the spring light of March.

Zhuan Zhuan quietly pushed her back, and said yes in a repeated voice, "Your Majesty is indeed reliable in handling affairs."

It doesn't matter whether the lotus lamp is good or not, and the requirements are not too high now, as long as people can get by.

The emperor brought him into the pavilion, and he respectfully bowed to everyone present. The emperor gave him a seat to discuss current affairs and politics with him. He was neither humble nor overbearing, with a calm attitude.

The lotus lamp responded with a smile from the beginning to the end, and after experiencing many things, my heart became calm and tolerant.It is a good thing for them to find a husband for her, and they also hope to find a good match earlier to settle down.Seeing that this person has a good conversation and knowledge, it seems that he can consider it.

If you want to find someone who is more romantic than Linyuan, I am afraid that there will be no one in the world.She suddenly felt a little sad, so let's take the next best thing, stop thinking about him, try to accept other people, give yourself a chance, and give happiness a chance.

The emperor was very good at acting as a matchmaker, and said with a smile: "Let's leave it to the court to discuss matters in the court, so as not to disturb the lady's elegance. Sheng Qing has seen Princess Tong'an before?"

That gentleman suddenly wasn't as comfortable as he was when he had a detailed discussion with the emperor before, he looked humble and reserved when facing the girl, without even raising his eyelids, he stood up and made a long bow, "I have heard the name of the princess for a long time, I have never had the chance to see you, but today, thanks to the grace of the Holy Lord, minister... minister... Sansheng is very lucky."

She turned around and covered her sleeves and laughed, "Don't be nervous, the princess has the most gentle temper. But she usually doesn't make friends with the ministers in the court, and it's the first time she sees the envoy. I guess she's too embarrassed to speak, so I'll do it for you." Let her ask! Where is the surname of Shi Junzun? Who is there in the family?"

He sternly turned around to each other again, "My minister Sheng Xiyi, from Luoyang, is twenty-five years old this year, and has not yet married. There is a Gaotang in the family, a younger brother and a younger sister, the younger brother works in Lantai, and the younger sister has already agreed to someone else. "

This is good, the words are not hidden, and each other knows the situation, so that we can continue to have a deep friendship.But Lian Deng didn't know how to talk to him. After thinking for a long time, he managed to say a few words, "Hi Luoyang Peony."

Obviously her answer was a little too unenthusiastic. Under normal circumstances, she should return a salute, then say some polite words, and introduce her boudoir name by the way.The phrase "Luoyang peony is good" made the atmosphere a little awkward, but Sheng Xiyi's quick response said hurriedly: "My mother loves to grow peonies, and the first case of her own cultivation has won the first place in flower fairs over the years. The princess mainly likes it, and I will present it to you." Send a few plants to the princess mansion."

This person's mind is active and self-cultivation is good, and his carefree personality like a lotus lamp is just right for him.When a woman loses love, she must fill it with new love, otherwise the sorrow will never end.She tried her best to facilitate this matter, so she said to the emperor: "Na Luoyan missed Yeye just now, and cried for a long time when he couldn't see Yeye, Your Majesty, follow me to see him!" She winked at the emperor , got up with the painting in his arms, and said to Sheng Xiyi, "The princess is going back to the mansion, so the gentleman will give her a ride for me, okay?"

He naturally said yes, and honestly sent off Jinshang and the noble concubine.Turning around, the princess stared into the distance, as if his existence did not attract her much attention.

He didn't dare to look at her until now. There are many rumors about this Princess Tong'an. It is said that she had a miserable childhood and even had a relationship with the national teacher.But it is precisely because of these mysterious colors that she has an air of superiority over the women in the boudoir.She is very beautiful, and that kind of beauty does not only refer to the eyebrows and eyes, but also covers many other things.Although it was the first time they met, his affection for her increased rapidly.

He stepped forward to salute her, "I send Your Highness back to the residence."

Then she turned her head to look at him, eyes like autumn water, still full of smiles.He got up and owed a little, put up his skirt and looked down at Xiantai, and he was watching over him carefully.The spring breeze blew the steps on her bun, and the golden leaves rustled together.She looked down at the steps. Because the weather was getting warmer, she put on a bare collar, and her white shoulders and neck looked holy and beautiful.He crossed his arms to prevent her from making a wrong step. Seeing his dedication, her smile widened even further.

"The Huainan Jiedu envoy... is stationed in Yangzhou?" She asked in harmony, "When will the envoy go to Yangzhou?"

He said aloud, "Because the new emperor ascended the throne and recruited talents, I was promoted to Jiedushi by this opportunity. The people in the court and the government are determined, and I will go to Yangzhou to take up the post soon."

She nodded, "Has your envoy ever been engaged before?"

He was slightly taken aback, "I was too late to open my mind..."

She laughed, paused, and then said: "I used to hear that Yangzhou is beautiful, but I never had the chance to go and see it. Let me be a few days later, and I will go to Yangzhou with you!"

Sheng Xiyi was very surprised. Since she expressed such an attitude, it meant that the princess planned to descend.He looked at her carefully, her attitude was very gentle, she didn't say much, just smiled at her, as if the deal was completed.

At least not annoying, so be it!Anyway, the rest of my life is just a matter of life, so it doesn't matter who you marry.Lian Deng felt that this person was passable, and the most important thing was that he could leave Chang'an.In fact, the two have been together for a long time, and gradually develop feelings.She also used to have someone she loved to death, but what happened, it wasn't all in vain!

He sent her home, although the Jiedushi is a military officer, but he is gentle, which is rare.She invited him in to have tea, and he chatted with her about the anecdotes of the Eastern Capital. She tucked up her sleeves and sighed, "In the Central Plains, I only walked the road from Chang'an to the Western Regions." The words seemed to feel narrow, Very ashamed.

He immediately relieved, "The princess of Dali doesn't leave Chang'an, I am afraid there is no one who can be as well-informed as Your Highness."

He knows how to take care of people's emotions, Lian Deng feels very happy, it's not easy to find someone to talk to, even if you don't marry him, it's good to be friends.

Later, I stopped using honorifics and official titles, and called them by their first names, and they had a very happy conversation.

He stayed for a long time, and did not leave until evening.Lian Deng sent him out, and smiled and invited him to come back next time.He said: "I've been free for the past two days, and I'll come to see you when the court is over. Do you want peonies? I'll send some peonies tomorrow. I'll pick out the ones that have sprouted, which will be easier to support."

He went away with the whip, and she sent people away and returned to the garden. The sky was gray and it might be raining.The maidservant at the side was sent away by her, and she walked alone on the path, her mind was empty and her heart was calm.There is a man-made lake in the garden, with rockery and pavilions on the lake, which cannot compare with the vastness and magnificence of Taiye Pool, but it has its own exquisiteness and ingenuity.She walked over slowly, and there was a tall acacia planted by the lake, she stood with her back against the tree pole, and in the dimness, she saw Jiu Se wandering around with her beautiful woman, and when she saw her, she ran over briskly.She caressed them with her hands, and said in a low voice: "A Jiedu Envoy came today, I want to marry him, have you seen him? Do you think he is good?"

Jiu Se didn't make any statement, the beauty didn't understand their past, seeing Jiu Se was a little sad, she just stared at it.

The lotus lamp knew that it was still facing the national teacher, and she was upset by asking this question, so she hurriedly pushed them, "Take the beauty back, it's going to rain, don't get drenched."

Jiu Se walked away step by step and turned her head three times. She stood for a while, only half a stick of incense time, and sighed countless times, each time getting heavier and heavier.Turning around, she was startled when she suddenly saw someone standing behind her.Looking carefully, it turned out to be him. She patted her chest and frowned, "I almost scared me to death...why are you here again?"

He didn't answer directly, but only said: "Have you met anyone? Is it still in your mind?"

She looked at him in surprise, "How do you know?"

The hand-picked ones, of course know.In fact, among the dignitaries in Chang'an, there are not many who can stand scrutiny. In order to find a suitable person to match her, he searched all the eighteen generations of their ancestors.The Sheng family is a scholarly family, but it is not pedantic and old-fashioned. The descendants of the descendants are both literary and military.Sheng Xiyi's family background is clean and his character is precious. If he entrusts her to him, he can rest assured 120 times.

But who can understand his current mood, isn't it a great shame to send his woman into the arms of others?He can actually ask questions in person, what kind of mind is this, even he himself can't explain clearly.He didn't dare to complain to her, so he could only force a smile on his face, "This person is trustworthy, don't worry. If he loses to you, Jingu will not let him go. I have discussed with the Holy One. First agree to a few conditions, the first one is that you are not allowed to take concubines. If I marry you, I can do it, but now I...you deserve someone who treats you wholeheartedly."

Lian Deng's words were all blocked in her throat, causing her to burst into tears.It turned out that they had chosen this person together. What did she think of him doing this?She wished that he would stop paying attention to her affairs. Fortunately or unfortunately, she didn't want him to worry about it.But he had to make arrangements for her as if he was explaining the funeral. She was not grateful to him, but was full of hatred for him.

She gritted her teeth and said: "Go and do your own business, leave me alone, I will live well. I talked to him for a while, this man is a good talent, you did not choose the wrong one. Since you feel He's good, I'll just marry him, what else do you want? If not, then go, don't spread the word to other people's ears, it will ruin my marriage instead."

He froze for a moment, and stood there with his hands down, looking depressed.After being silent for a long time, I said, "I just want to come and see you and know what you think. If I don't think it's ideal, I'll look for someone else... It seems that you are still satisfied, that would be great."

She turned away from looking at him again, as if a knife was piercing her heart.She didn't know what she was insisting on, and she couldn't let go, because his life and death were uncertain, so she timidly gave up.In fact, her love for him is very limited, and her infatuation is just self-righteous.Now find a grand reason, because he has no future, her escape is justified.Who would have thought that he wanted to make a gesture of completeness, clearly to make her sad on purpose.

She speaks bad words, it is best for him to leave immediately.She heard him sigh lightly, and after a while he handed her a small box.She gave him a puzzled look, "What is this?"

He said: "Being inferior to others, it is inevitable to be emotional over time. If you fall in love with him, live with him well. Take the antidote, and the memory of me will disappear. You are still young, you should start again. Don't do it again. I am depressed about the past, and I will be a brand new you from tomorrow.”

So he also made a cruel decision to end it.My heart was throbbing in my chest, stuffy and painful.She grabbed the skirt tightly and took the medicine, "What about you?"

He shook his head, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I only have memory left, I can't forget it." When it started to rain, he returned his hand, "Let's go, let's just say goodbye, there will be no future."

She didn't move, her heart ached like a knife, why did he make himself so miserable, just to make her blame herself?

She turned around cruelly, and the rain became dense, beating her so hard that she couldn't open her eyes.The palm was scratched by the edge of the box, and it hurt more than the pressure he put on her.She walked forward step by step, did she really want to forget?Forget about him, fall in love with another person, get married and have children, and don't remember that he ever appeared in her life.

Do not look back!She said to herself, don't look back, if you look back, you will lose completely.But the calf seemed to be filled with lead, and it was difficult to move.She couldn't control herself, struggled and hesitated, but slowly stopped.

It was still cold in the rain, and it seemed that her mind hadn't been so clear-headed for a long time.Taking a deep breath, she began to waver, if he had already left, then let go and let each other live.If not... She turned around slowly, the rain curtain was heavy, and through thousands of silver needles, she saw that he was still there, drenched by the rain, and his spine was still straight.

What a crime, how can she persist?Hatred and annoyed, she threw the box into the lake with all her strength, then sat down, covered her face and cried bitterly.
