The emperor's favorite useless concubine

Chapter 122 Love
He waited quietly outside, waiting for her to come out from inside. Yiren finished her work, walked out from inside contentedly, and stood in front of him again.

He didn't ask her why she was here, and she didn't ask either.

"Accompany me to a place." Pei Ruochen said, already holding her hand.

Yi Ren didn't feel shy, and let him lead her to the street.

Such harmony and peace, as if they were separated just yesterday.

Pei Ruochen's steps were very light, and he could hardly hear his footsteps when he stepped on the bluestone road.

Yi Ren's steps were heavy and a bit messy, but he always followed his rhythm.

Pei Ruochen stopped in front of a big house.

The gate of the house has been closed, and above the gate is a large official seal, with the words "Pyrotechnics Division" written in block letters.

Pei Ruochen let go of Yi Ren and let her wait on the street, while he stepped up the steps and knocked hard on the door.

Not long after, there was a sleepy sound of annoyance from inside the door. The concierge rubbed his eyes, opened the door, and was about to yell at Pei Ruochen, when he saw Pei Ruochen, the expression on his face immediately became extremely flattering: "Master Pei, it's so late, you how……"

"Fireworks, I want all the fireworks here." Pei Ruochen interrupted him briefly.

The concierge was stunned for a moment, then turned around immediately, urging the others to get up.

Yi Ren waited quietly outside, his left foot touching his right foot, a little cramped, but his expression was peaceful.

After a while, Pei Ruochen came out, carrying a big bag, and holding her up again with his free hand.

"Do you still remember where you stopped me that day?" Pei Ruochen asked with a smile as he walked away.

What he was talking about was the incident when the Yiren robbed the marriage when they got married.

Yi Ren tilted his head and thought for a while, then looked left and right, and suddenly realized that they had already arrived at that place.

There, Pei Ruochen was wearing a bright red shirt, leaned down from the horse, and said flatly, "Go back, Yi Ren."

If he did it all over again, would he still say the same thing?

However, neither of them thought about this if.

What has been missed is forever missed.

No if.

"I've always missed you from that day." Pei Ruochen said, untied the bag, took out all the fireworks in the bag, and arranged them one by one in a circle, a big, big circle, spreading from the street to the corner .

"Want to play?" Pei Ruochen blew on the fire sickle and handed it to Yi Ren.

Yi Ren looked at him.

The starry sky is still the same, the moonlight is still the same, no matter the light of the stars or the moon, they are all cold and clear, shining on Pei Ruochen's face.

It was a perfect face, gentle and soft, like a child of God.

Yi Ren stretched out his hand and picked up the scythe.

Then, like a child who set off firecrackers during the New Year, she suddenly became joyful and nodded all the way, one after another, squatting down, cocking her buttocks, running from one end to the other.

Firelight hissed in the dark.

After Yi Ren finished lighting, he quickly blew out the scythe, ran to Pei Ruochen, covered his ears with his hands, and jumped with joy.

Pei Ruochen turned his head to look at her, and smiled softly like a spring breeze.

There was a loud "boom".

All the fireworks bloom together.

The starry sky all over the sky suddenly darkened.

They are in brilliance.

Yi Ren raised his head and opened his eyes wide in amazement.

Countless Hua Yan rose, fell, and rose again, and the bright colors flickered in her eyes.

Pei Ruochen's gaze never left her face.

The fireworks in his eyes are the reflection in her eyes.

The colorful brilliance filled her face, reflecting her pure joy. Such a beautiful picture is the most real happiness that Pei Ruochen can touch.

It turns out that this is the color of happiness.

He smiled, finally looked away, and also looked up at the sky.

The first round of fireworks was over, and the second round roared into the sky again.

The sky is thousands of miles away, the stars and the moon are mixed with Hua Yan in the mid-air, and it is hard to tell whether it is the sky or the world.

Yi Ren was stunned to see the beautiful scenery that seemed not to belong to the world, and his heart was shocked. He wanted to express something in words, but realized that words were lacking.

She just watched, smiled, and looked up stupidly.

Pei Ruochen also had a smile on his face, but that smile was light and distant, and it was incompatible with such a splendid and splendid scenery.

When the third round of fireworks rose, Pei Ruochen suddenly spoke.

He asked, "Yi Ren, are you happy now?"

Yi Ren turned to look at him.

Pei Ruochen under the sparks had a melancholy color, as light and beautiful as an ink painting, so beautiful that it was not close to reality.

"You must be happy, you know?" Pei Ruochen didn't wait for her answer, just smiled quietly, and answered the question himself.

"En." Yi Ren responded softly, turned around again, and continued to look up at the beauty that could not be described by thousands of words.

Pei Ruochen still looked at her, at her soft profile, at the flicker hidden under her long eyelashes, at her slightly pouty lips, with their bright color.

He suddenly wanted to kiss her.

The last time, perhaps, is the last presumptuousness of my life.

He wants to kiss her.

Pei Ruochen leaned over gently, he could almost hear her breathing clearly, however, that kiss finally became the regret in his life, the destined regret.

"Yiren!" Beyond the fireworks, a distraught voice suddenly sounded from the other side of the long street.

Pei Ruochen moved away.

He turned around and saw He Lanxue by accident.

He Lanxue's forehead was covered with sweat, she was out of breath, and the anxiety on her face had not faded away.

——After returning to the room, he found that Yi Ren was gone. God knows how anxious he was.

Ask the concierge, the concierge is also a confused person, he doesn't know whether she has gone out or not.

He Lanxue looked for her like crazy. During this period, he made countless assumptions, thinking that Yi Ren ran back to Yan Han, that Yi Ren was scared away by his confession, that she was in danger, and even thought that it was He Lanchun who killed her. kidnapped.

Every possibility is something he doesn't want to see.

He searched back and forth for a long time around the inn, and the more he searched, the more flustered he became, and he couldn't get any more flustered.

Until, until you see the fireworks here.

——Actually, he was not the only one who saw the fireworks?
In the capital, how many people who were sleeping were awakened by such a loud noise, and then opened the door and pushed the window, so they saw a scene that they might never forget in their entire lives.

How many young couples, how many naive old people, pointing in front of the house, discussing in a low voice.

How many girls in the boudoir started to make up the stories they took for granted again, guessing which young man would ignite this dream for their lover.

It's a beautiful night.

sleepless nights.

With a sullen face, He Lanxue stepped over the fireworks and debris all over the ground without saying a word, and walked in front of Pei Ruochen.

Yi Ren also saw him, she didn't feel so surprised, just glanced at him with a smile, and then continued to greedily look at the beautiful scenery in front of her.

"My lord." Pei Ruochen was not surprised, his expression was still calm and indifferent.

He Lanxue didn't have such good self-cultivation, he turned sideways, barely stood between Pei Ruochen and Yi Ren, stared at Pei Ruochen, and said word by word: "She is mine, stay away from her from now on."

Pei Ruochen was not angry either, but looked up at the fireworks that were slowly dissipating in the sky, and said calmly, "Your Majesty already knows about the news of the prince's arrival in Beijing. The capital may not be peaceful these days, and the prince must take care of himself."

He Lanxue didn't expect him to remind herself in turn, so she was a little surprised, but he didn't make a sound.

"The empress dowager's illness is not normal, and it is not normal for He Lanqin to lead troops into Beijing by visiting the sick." Pei Ruochen continued: "This capital city will not be so peaceful soon."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for He Lanxue's reaction, he took a step back, bowed to him, and then took another deep look at Yi Ren.

Yi Ren had already withdrawn his gaze, and looked at him cheerfully.

They said nothing, but they said everything.

"Goodbye." Pei Ruochen left two words in a very chic manner, flicked his sleeves slightly, turned around, and left in the afterglow of the fireworks.

No matter how bright the fireworks are, after all, there is a moment of disappearance.

The beauty that fills the world, little by little, quiets down.

Debris fell from the sky and covered Pei Ruochen's body.

When his figure completely disappeared, the world returned to silence again.

There are fragments all over the place, and there is a strong smell of gunpowder all over the place.

That is the bright truth.

He Lanxue watched Pei Ruochen leave all the time, but put her arms around Yi Ren, almost domineeringly, and brought her into his arms.

When Pei Ruochen was no longer seen, he lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms with a little reproach.

An angry look, like an angry child.

Yi Ren leaned quietly on his chest, her eyes, which were always sleep-deprived, became clear for a while.

"From now on, don't think about Pei Ruochen anymore." He Lanxue looked around at the fireworks all around her, feeling inexplicably flustered in her heart: Will this beauty, such Pei Ruochen, capture Yi Ren's heart again.

"He will never think about me again." Yi Ren replied quietly.

He Lanxue felt a little uncomfortable, he looked at Yi Ren inquiringly.

Yi Ren raised his head, showing a trademark smile, simple and clean, rather heartless.

"Axue." She called him.

"Huh?" He Lanxue still hugged her, refusing to let go.

"After the things here are over, you can go to see Yanhan with me." Yi Ren said: "Let's go to see Yanhan together."

He Lanxue was startled, confused at first, and then ecstatic.

Seeing Yanhan together, then, does it mean that she finally decided to face it?
"After the things here are over, you can go to see Yanhan with me." Yi Ren said: "Let's go to see Yanhan together."

"Okay, after the things here are over, I can accompany you anywhere." He Lanxue promised proudly, then tightened her arms, and rubbed them cruelly, "Remember, I will go anywhere I can go with you, but you can't act without permission." After a pause, he refused to let go and asked again: "Aren't you in the room? How did you meet Ruochen?"

"...I came out to look for a hut." Yi Ren replied pitifully, which was the truth.

He Lanxue was embarrassed, then smiled, "Even if you go to the latrine, let me accompany you!"

Going to the hut can also meet the old lover. This capital city is really too dangerous. It seems that he can't leave even for a while.

Yi Ren scratched his head and said 'oh'.

He Lanxue looked at the sky, it was past midnight, and it was still a few hours before dawn.
