marry the princess

Chapter 232 In Tianyun Mountain
The mountain road was bumpy, the carriage stopped several times to rest, and Murong Yunnuo was taking care of him. The Empress Dowager Chengyuan watched him run left and right, sometimes fetching ice water for them, sometimes bringing them anti-heat medicine, comforting him Feeling a little distressed, "Nuo'er, you should also take a good rest."

"Your minister travels around all the year round, and these things are very familiar and easy to handle. The Empress Dowager doesn't have to worry about your minister's trouble." Murong Yunnuo smiled, "Your minister should."

Murong Yunnuo finally went to Su Leyan's carriage and handed her the anti-heat medicine.

"Thank you." Su Leyan answered it naturally, smiling slightly.

Murong Yunnuo's filial piety, Su Leyan and the others were taken care of, and they all praised Murong Yunnuo heartily.

"You're welcome." Murong Yunnuo never stopped by her side.

It took some time to stop and go all the way to Tianyun Mountain.

After arriving at Tianyun Mountain, it was already getting late. After gathering together for a while, everyone dispersed and went to the arranged residence to rest.

The next day, Su Leyan woke up early in the morning. For some reason, she always had trouble sleeping at night. She woke up early and couldn't fall asleep. She got up, dressed and washed briefly before going out.

The last time I came here was under the guise of praying for Murong Huayi, now "revisiting the old place", Su Leyan unconsciously remembered the past experience, and also remembered the loneliness and helplessness when she was in Moyun Villa .

Now she is in such a situation again.

Su Leyan looked at the trail she had walked before and fell into deep thought.

Why would I go the same way again?

Su Leyan hates that feeling, but she still walks step by step on the road she once walked.Will she experience the same thing as before now?Disappointed, desperate, and then make up your mind?

Su Leyan was very disappointed in herself seeing herself in such a situation again.

If she had seen enough and thought through enough before, how could she have become so sad now?It didn't hurt enough to fall into this pain again.

Su Leyan likes Murong Huayi.

Walking step by step on the road that Baicheng once led her to, Su Leyan felt that the pain from the past was recondensing bit by bit, coupled with the current confusion and loss, her eyes were empty and she couldn't extricate herself.

She had to admit that she liked Murong Huayi, not only for the time when she was sincerely facing him, but also now, or a long time ago.She has too many expectations for Murong Huayi. She is such a small and helpless weak woman. Murong Huayi's ambiguity towards her and his care for her have made her look forward to it. She wants to have someone who is enough for her. Powerful, able to protect her well, but she couldn't believe that anyone would protect her like this.

Murong Huayi, is that him?

Su Leyan once asked herself over and over again, and then she chose to believe it, but the facts told her that she was wrong.

Walking to the end of the path, Su Leyan saw the old and vicissitudes of life tree in the old courtyard. It was a scorching summer day, but this old tree didn't have any lush vitality, only some sparse leaves hanging on it. On the new branches, the ancient tree trunks are covered with pagodas, the sun is blazing, and the dried pagodas form dry scars one after another, like fish scales, covering the trunks in large and small sizes.

A section of broken tree trunk fell on the ground, fell from the tree for some unknown reason, and has been crawling for many days.

Su Leyan walked over, and was about to bend over to touch the branch, when a voice sounded, "Why are you here?"

Su Leyan was startled, and looked up at Murong Yunnuo.

"I should ask you why are you here?"

Su Leyan felt that this was no coincidence.This is a secluded dead end.

"You want to hear the truth?"

Su Leyan was silent, and did not continue to ask questions.

"Have you been here before?" Murong Yunnuo walked over and looked up at the ancient tree.

"Why do you think so?"

Murong Yunnuo thought carefully about how to describe her state just now, "You seem to be very familiar with this place and very kind. Do you like it very much?"

Su Leyan smiled faintly, "This is a dying tree."

Death is not something that can make people happy and relaxed, but the smile on Su Leyan's face is a very gratifying feeling.

Murong Yunnuo's expression turned serious, "What are you thinking?"

"I'm just stating the facts. You see, its roots are thick and its trunk is huge, but neither can hide the fact that it is old and dying. No matter how deceptively young green its tops may be, It is also impossible to ignore that it is no longer able to support the few clusters of hope, but after one winter, and another summer, it should all rot."

Su Leyan spoke slowly, as if talking to herself.

"You have something on your mind?"

"Who has nothing on his mind?" Su Leyan looked at Murong Yunnuo and smiled slightly, "Your Highness Nine, I'm going back first."

"Since you are no stranger to me and you don't reject me, why can't you talk to me more?"

Su Leyan's leaving footsteps paused, "People's words are scary."

When Murong Yunnuo heard this, he had nothing to refute, and watched Su Leyan leave.

Having not seen each other for a long time, Su Leyan was so calm to see him, which made him feel a little relieved.

People's words are scary, so why doesn't he know that he doesn't want to cause her any trouble because of himself, so even if he cares, he has to think twice before he can ask a question carefully.

After Murong Yunnuo also left the old courtyard and went back to his own residence, someone came and asked him to go to the Queen Mother's side fifteen minutes later.

Concubine Lin, Li Ziying, Su Leyan and the prime minister's wife are all with the queen mother.

"My ministers see the Queen Mother."

"Nuoer, you don't need to be too polite." The Empress Dowager Chengyuan smiled, "Tomorrow there will be a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven, and there are still some things I have to take care of. Today I want you to do something for the Ai family."

"What's the matter? No matter what the queen mother orders, Lao Jiu will do it for the queen mother."

"You don't need to worry about matters related to offering sacrifices to the heavens. The emcee and others are in the process of making arrangements. Aijia wants you to take them for a walk in Tianyun Mountain. Aijia heard that you have also come here to watch the snow in the past. I must be familiar with it, although the monks in this temple are familiar with this place, but it is extremely inconvenient for this group of women and strangers to follow, so Nuo'er is suitable."

Murong Yunnuo scratched his head and smiled embarrassingly, "I didn't see any good snow when I came here, but I was hit by the hail and jumped with my head in my arms."

His words made everyone present cover their mouths and laugh.

"Ninth Brother, you are really interesting." Concubine Lin Gui was the first to stop her laughter.

"Being able to make the emperor's sister-in-law smile knowingly, it's worth it for Lao Jiu to get knocked down." Murong Yunnuo received it sweetly.

Seeing how they got along well, the queen mother was relieved, "Then Nuoer, you can take them to see it. The Ai family also heard that the scenery on the top of Tianyun Mountain is very good. It would be a pity not to see it when you come here." , Ai’s body is failing, you young people go, Ai’s family can take a good rest after finishing the business today.”
