Chapter 99

After resigning from Concubine Qi, Su Yan and his party returned to the palace in a phoenix chariot.

Seeing that she was preoccupied along the way, Sang Yu thought that maybe it was because of Miss Ning that she had a grudge with Mrs. Ning.

But if the friendship we have had for many years is no match for this accident, that would be really chilling.

Even if others don't realize it, but as Su Yan's confidant, she only sees in her heart the affection Master Ning has for her mother, and doesn't say it out of her mouth.

Just ask the world such an infatuated man, really rare.

Even when I first married Su Zhi, I never saw my mother so sad, thinking that her good intentions were misunderstood, that kind of feeling...

When I came back to my senses, I had arrived at the Qionghua Pavilion in the side hall.

"The little sister's matter, the elder sister is now the master of the sixth house, but she still hasn't given an explanation. Is it so difficult to find out?"

Su Yan has never bothered to listen to such things as being in the corner, but I'm afraid that everyone will be embarrassed if she gets involved.

So she went to the inner hall, changed into ordinary clothes, and took off the phoenix crown before returning.

After deliberately making a noise, Su Zhi's chattering voice stopped.

Ning Wenyuan was the first to raise his head, and a woman in a moon-white silk shirt was reflected in his eyes, without brocade clothes and phoenix crowns, without Zhu Dan and red bandits, which added to his charming appearance.

At that moment, another glance, it seemed like a lifetime away, teaching him to misunderstand, as if Su Yan was still that little girl who didn't know much about the world, who would haunt him all over the capital, poke her head out of the sedan chair, and sweetly call him "Wen Yuan" elder brother.

"Your Majesty has already punished Zhou Cainv regarding the matter of Miss Ning, and I have done my best." Su Yan took her seat slowly, with her hands folded on her knees.

Bright eyes turned gently, and he opened his lips and said, "After all, we are all from our own family, so you may as well speak up if you have anything to say."

Su Zhi glanced at the person beside her, and saw that he was unwilling to leave his eyes for a moment, so she said, "Of course it's what the elder sister said, but today, we are here to say goodbye to you."

"But going on tour?"

"My husband wants to..." Su Zhi was talking, but was interrupted by Ning Wenyuan, "Zhier, go and see Miss Lan Ruo first, I have something to say to the imperial concubine alone."

"If I don't leave, why do you have to avoid me!" Su Zhi refused.

Ning Wenyuan unexpectedly patiently persuaded her that Su Zhi could not accept any kindness from him, and when she walked out the door, her heart felt cold. If there was really a theory of reincarnation, then she must have owed Ning Wenyuan in her previous life, and Ning Wenyuan Yuan owed Su Yan again!
However, these are no longer important, because today may be the last time in this life.

There was suddenly one person missing in the room, Su Yan felt cramped instead, she said, "Master Ning, sit down."

Ning Wenyuan paused, pulled up his clothes and sat down, the two of them were only a tea table apart.

Without looking back, Su Yan lowered her eyes slightly, "Actually, many things in the harem are knots that will never be solved, and there is nothing I can do..."

"Yan'er," he suddenly said, and this time, for the first time in many years, he called her that, not Mrs. Yanrui, not Lady Zhaoyi, not to mention Concubine Yan, but Yan'er, " When both of you had an accident that day, it was because of my heartache that I treated you...don't blame me, in fact, I don't blame you in my heart."

The estrangement in his heart was swept away by his words, Su Yan nodded, there was no need for more explanation between them.

There was another moment of silence, and out of the corner of his eyes, he saw him slowly take out a long and narrow sandalwood box from his sleeve, put it on the table, and pushed it lightly, "This is for you, and now it is returned to its original owner."

Su Yan held it in her hand, her heart flickered, then she let it go again.

At the age of 15, the night before entering the palace was the longest night of her life.

The emerald shattered, the sound was like falling jade, and the cold light splashed everywhere. She resolutely threw down those words,

"The affection is exhausted, there is such a hairpin."

But they didn't know that this fall would completely change the fate of the two of them...

"Aren't you going to open it and take a look?" Ning Wenyuan asked lightly.

She shook her head, "No need."

"Yan'er, you dare not face me because in your heart, like me, you have no way to let go." Ning Wenyuan stood up suddenly, leaned over and grabbed the handrails on both sides of her, "Look at me. "

Su Yan raised her head and met his dark eyes, her heart trembled, she pushed him away and stood up, "I am not a nostalgic person, but I know how to be grateful."

"After today, there is no need for nostalgia or gratitude." He grabbed Su Yan's cuff, "The emperor has ordered me to leave immediately and go to Monan to take over Yao Qifeng's army."

Su Yan was stunned, and turned her head slowly, "Even if you go to Monan, you don't have to stay for a long time..."

Ning Wenyuan suddenly exerted force, and suddenly hugged her into his arms. The force was so strong that she had a premonition of uneasiness.

"It's my pleading, in order to make meritorious deeds, I will no longer be greedy for the prosperity of the capital." He held Su Yan's temple hair tightly from above, carefully raised his hand, and brushed it.

She moved her lips, she didn't know what to say, everything happened so suddenly, it was what she thought, even if the whole world betrayed her, there was only one person who wouldn't.

And finally leave her.

"Then you, take care." Su Yan clenched her hands into fists, until Ning Wenyuan let her go, but she didn't have the courage to open her hands.

Such pale and powerless words made this already pale farewell even more desolate.

"Forgive me for not being able to protect you any longer," Ning Wenyuan stared at her, as if using his whole life to remember, "Because I have more people to protect, the innocent people in the three counties of Monan are still struggling in the flames of war ...so I have to give up."

"I understand...Actually, I am a noble concubine now, and no one dares to take it easy..." She really wanted to pretend to be calm, but the twinkling eyes betrayed her.

If it is true what she said, then how can she be framed and lose her son? If it is true what she said, how can she walk on thin ice every step of the way.

The more she deliberately concealed it, the more uncomfortable Ning Wenyuan felt.

But he can't give up his responsibility, and he can't live up to the trust of the emperor and the trust of thousands of people!

"The miserable land in Monan is not comparable to the capital. I don't know if you can get used to it." Su Yan changed the subject and tried her best to comfort him, but she missed the point. In the end, it's better not to say anything.

"I should go," he stayed where he was, Su Yan didn't dare to turn her head, and just responded lightly.

"Then teach Zhi'er to come and say goodbye to you." He added.

Su Yan still didn't move, she shook her head, "No need, take good care of her."

He nodded as well, walking heavily, and as he gradually moved away, the voice became clearer and clearer.

"No matter when or where, Ning Wenyuan's mind will never change."

The palace door was closed, and she just sat down, her fingertips trembling slightly, and opened the sandalwood box.

A shattered jasper hairpin lay quietly inside, and the jade pieces that she smashed to pieces at the beginning were glued together piece by piece!

She didn't dare to look again, and closed it suddenly, until the cold tears wet the back of her hand, she realized that her face was already covered with tears.

Years have passed, and the return date is uncertain.

It is always until the time of losing that we realize how precious everything we had was.

At night, the candles in the Jingwen Hall were still on, so Su Yan put on a smock and went to have a look.

I saw him sitting upright in front of the table, copying a book.

"No matter how eager you are to study, you should relax and read it tomorrow." Su Yan walked over, and as soon as she touched the book, she saw that the handwriting on it was very familiar.

"Teacher Ning bids farewell to my minister," Jing Wen said abruptly, with a solemn expression on his face, and did not say the following words.

"Written by him?" Su Yan flipped a few pages unconsciously, Jing Wen nodded, very proud, "Teacher is not only superb in martial arts, but also superb in learning."

In fact, he has been adapting to himself, but he has never really understood him.

"Sorrows and joys are always merciless, before the first step, bit by bit until dawn." These are the few words he wrote on the last page.

Vigorous and powerful strokes, portrayed on paper.

Su Yan stared at those words, speechless for a long time.

Before the spring hunt, Su Yan proposed to the emperor to have a lake feast to express her feelings.

Duan Zhaoling naturally agreed to these small matters, and left it to her to handle them.

Concubine Shu was on the list of invitations.

Concubine Qi asked her why, Su Yan only said that even if she made a mistake, she should be rewarded and punished, and she was allowed to come out to relax.

Lan Xiaoyi was not included in the invitation, but she invited to go, saying that the imperial physician said that pregnant women need to walk more to help the delivery.

The sky is beautiful and the sky is blue, but it is a good day for swimming in the lake.

First, a banquet was held in the imperial garden, where flowers and willows were tasted, and everyone was arty.

Food and wine, singing and dancing, this is what the harem should look like.

Sweeping away the haze, it actually taught people to relax.

After a while, Wang Zhongming came to report, saying that the emperor was discussing matters in Wenyuan Pavilion, and he would not come today.

Su Yan thought to herself, her father did follow her arrangement and wrote a letter to hold the emperor back.

Great, everything is under control.

"Dear sisters, since we have finished our meal, why don't we go to the lake to enjoy the spring scenery." Su Yan clapped her hands, and saw a boat sailing leisurely from a distance on the originally rippling lake.

After a whole winter of severe cold, when everyone saw this, they were all excited and wanted to board the boat for a visit.

Zhencai said humanely, "The concubine has long wanted to appreciate the beauty of the lake and mountains, but today I would like to thank the imperial concubine for her kindness."

Su Yan smiled kindly, "Lan Xiaoyi and Concubine Qi are pregnant, for safety's sake, it is not suitable to go into the water, I will instruct the palace staff to take good care of them."

Lan Xiaoyi refused, and said, "I am not afraid, I am willing to board the boat together."

Su Yan couldn't beat her, so she had no choice but to agree.Concubine Qi was very safe, and accompanied Jing and Princess to play in the garden alone.

"Where is Sang Yu, why is there no one around for a long time?" She asked the maids in the palace, but they all said they didn't know.

The concubines boarded the boat for the first time, Su Yan looked around, and said to the human sitting in the corner, "Concubine Shu, come along too."
