Harem Pampered Beauty: Chen Xiangxue

Chapter 70

"Did you hear that? You are not allowed to leave for the rest of your life."

Murong Xue had mixed feelings in her heart, she couldn't agree, and she didn't want to cheat, so she chose to remain silent.

She lowered her head slightly, like a white lotus quietly blooming in the morning light, elegant and beautiful, gentle like water.Yeluyan always felt uneasy when he didn't hear her promise in person.He lifted her jaw and said in a deep voice, "Swear quickly."

Murong Xue raised her eyes and showed him a faint smile, "Then there is a reason for you to force people to swear like this? For a lifetime, who can guarantee that after such a long time, maybe you have already tired of me, maybe I have already Just turn into dust, I will not allow such a meaningless oath."

Yeluyan's expression darkened, and he said, "No nonsense is allowed."

Murong Xue said with a smile: "It's not nonsense, my mother also wanted to be with my father for the rest of her life, but she left early. Life and death are up to me, I don't have the final say. Maybe I also left early that day , when the time comes, you remember to send my ashes back to the south of the Yangtze River, and it would be best to bury them in the rapeseed field outside the city."

She smiled quietly and softly, as if she was talking about a beautiful thing that has been quiet for years, but it sounded like thunder to Yeluyan's ears.

The sky outside the window suddenly darkened, she was sitting with the backlight, her face was a little blurry, like a mirror flower in the moon and water, he had an inexplicable bad premonition in his heart, so he straightened his face and said: "Don't say such unlucky words. "

Murong Xue smiled: "Okay, it's fine if you don't say it." She tilted her head and smiled playfully: "It's strange, can it be said that it will come true?"

Before he finished speaking, Yeluyan hugged her tightly, his arms were so tight that she almost couldn't breathe.

Murong Xue quickly supported his chest with her hands, and said, "It's so stuffy, let go."

Yeluyan loosened his grip slightly, but still held her tightly in his arms, and said in a muffled voice, "Never mention such things in the future."

Murong Xue couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, a person like me with a thick skin like a city wall and a heart wrapped in a vajra mask, how could he die."

When Yeluyan heard her talking about himself like that, he couldn't help feeling sour, and said in a deep voice, "Don't talk about yourself like that."

Murong Xue laughed at herself: "I'm in your heart, isn't it like this?"

"No." After a pause, he said, "You are unique in my heart."

"Of course, no one is as thick-skinned as I am." She smiled softly, but the corners of her eyes were wet unconsciously.

He said awkwardly: "Then I like it too."

"Look at how thick-skinned I am. I covered the iron trees with flowers." Although she smiled sweetly, the self-mockery on the corner of her lips made people feel soft and pitiful. He rubbed her hair and said, "Concubine Qiao explained The Emperor of Japan will issue a decree to establish a crown prince, and I will not have time to visit you in the next few days."

Murong Xue was startled, and immediately smiled happily, "Congratulations, husband."

Yeluyan said seriously: "Congratulations with empty words? It's too insincere."

"But this good news is too sudden, I haven't prepared a gift yet."

"Then you start preparing from tomorrow, and wait a few days before sending me." He pinched her nose, "You haven't sent me anything for a long time."

"Okay, I will definitely prepare a gift carefully to congratulate my husband on becoming His Highness the Crown Prince." Murong Xue said enthusiastically, "Why don't we drink to congratulate, as if we have never drank together before."

Yeluyan felt a little guilty when he heard the words.On the wedding night, he didn't even have a drink with her, so he went straight to the bridal chamber, and he wasn't gentle enough for her that night, and the first night made her shed half a vat of tears in pain.

"Okay, let's drink and celebrate."

Murong Xue immediately called Ding Xiang and asked her to warm the wine and prepare the dishes.

The food was served quickly and the wine was warmed.The two gathered around the stove, Murong Xue poured a glass of wine, and offered it to Yeluyan with both hands: "Congratulations, my husband's long-cherished wish has been fulfilled."

Yeluyan reached out and hugged her to his lap, "You feed me."

This was the first and last time, with such a mood, Murong Xue slowly put the wine glass to his lips.

Yeluyan drank it all in one gulp, then took her lips in his mouth, fed half a glass of wine into her mouth, and said in a low voice, "Congratulations."

Murong Xue's skin had a tinge of embarrassment, under the candlelight, Ruyu's face was bright and moving, Yeluyan felt that it was incredible that he was unmoved at the beginning.

Such ambiguous and intimate contact, the quiet and warm time, and his affectionate gaze made Murong Xue feel confused.

Leaving this time was a hundred times more difficult than last time.Because in the half month since she was injured, he has changed a lot, and he has become what she couldn't wish for before.He loves her to take care of her, and no longer ignores her and beats her, but the kindness of missing the opportunity only makes her more painful.

If he was as indifferent and unfeeling to her as before, she would walk away as crisply as last time.But he became what he is today, but it made her go with difficulty and hesitation.

Maybe he was kind to him just out of gratitude, grateful that she would rather lose her life than frame him.He has always liked noble and elegant women, how could he suddenly change his taste and like himself?It must be moved rather than admired, just like his feelings for Xu Ze are only moved rather than admired, so even if she "die", he should not be very sad.Moreover, what he pretended in his heart was the hegemony of the great plan, the country and the country, and he would soon become the crown prince, and his long-cherished wish was fulfilled, so the little pain of losing her should be overshadowed by this great joy.

She comforted herself so much that she drank quickly and hurriedly.

Yeluyan took the wine glass in her hand, and said softly: "Don't drink too much, too much wine will hurt your body."

"Okay, I won't drink anymore." She put down the wine glass, the light was dim, and even the air became cold and quiet. This was the last time she was with him.

Looking at him, thousands of thoughts ebb and flow like tides, wandering in her heart, with a little drunkenness, she wanted to say what was in her heart, after tonight, maybe there would be no chance in this life.

She poured a glass of wine and handed it to Yeluyan with both hands, "This glass of wine is considered an apology."

Yeluyan was startled: "Why do you say that?"

She murmured: "Back then I disregarded your wishes and married you with shamelessness, and caused you a lot of trouble and distress. I'm really sorry. If time goes back, I will definitely follow my father back to the south of the Yangtze River when I leave the palace. I shouldn't take revenge and force you to marry me."

Yeluyan frowned, "What do you mean, do you regret marrying me?"

"No, it's just that I understand now that feelings can't be forced, and two people who are happy are the gods and couples, otherwise they will become resentful spouses." She whispered: "Please forgive me for my ignorance, wishful thinking, and conceited intelligence."

Yeluyan said angrily, "I am willing."

Murong Xue said guiltily: "You were forced to do so, I know. I was spoiled by my parents to the sky, I don't know how high the sky is, I don't know how to be humble and self-love, I have never liked anyone, I don't know how to treat it, I just rely on myself I like it, I'm lonely and brave, I never thought about your feelings, I'm really sorry."

Yeluyan was very shocked, he didn't expect her to say such words.

She felt that her nose was sore and she wanted to cry, so she tried to smile: "However, I am very glad to have met you, although being hit by you is very sad, but it is also an encouragement, which taught me to understand that one must be self-aware, and pride and arrogance will only lead to complete failure. Suffering can make people grow, it is true."

The tears in the corners of his eyes flowed down unknowingly. I don't know why he was so sad suddenly. It was because he was about to leave him, and he would never see him again in this life.This seemed to be the first and last time I had a heart-to-heart talk with him.Many feelings are entangled in my heart, if I don't say it, there will be no chance in this life.

Yeluyan hugged her tightly: "You said that you have never liked anyone, and you don't know how to treat them, so do I. From now on, I will treat you well and never make you sad again."

Unfortunately, there is no more.

She closed her eyes and murmured, "I'm going to sleep."

Yeluyan picked her up, put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and whispered: "Let's start over."

She was asleep, her eyes covered with long lashes in blue shadows.He quietly watched her fall into a deep sleep, blew out the lamp and left.

A tear slipped from the corner of Murong Xue's eye.

The next morning, Murong Xue stood in front of the window for a long time, looking out of the window in rapt attention. It snowed the day before yesterday, but now the snow has almost melted, and there are still a few scattered snow traces hanging on the rockery.

Seeing her standing still for a while, Ding Xiang asked with concern, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Murong Xue turned her head and smiled, "It's fine. I'm going hunting."

"Hunting?" Ding Xiang's eyes widened in surprise.

"Well, go ask the butler to prepare the horse."

Murong Xue didn't wait for Ding Xiang to ask more questions, she turned around the screen and went to the inner room to change clothes.

Hunting is not uncommon for Lilac. In the past, it was common for Murong Xue and Murong Lin to go hunting in the mountains together in Yi County.But the winter in the capital is so cold, what should I do if I catch a cold when I go hunting?Ding Xiang was thinking of persuading her, but Murong Xue had already put on her hunting clothes.

"My lord has been named the heir apparent today, and I'm going to hunt a snow fox to make him a warm sleeve as a congratulatory gift."

Ding Xiang pouted and said, "It's a big deal to buy one, it must be sold in the embroidered clothes shop in the capital. Going out to hunt in the cold and snow, it's a pain."

"What I bought can't reflect my heart." Murong Xue smiled and nodded Ding Xiang's forehead: "In the future, you must do your best for your husband, and you can't be perfunctory. Only sincerity can be exchanged for true love."

Ding Xiang said silently: I can't do what you do.Loving someone can cost you your life.

Steward Ming heard that Murong Xue was going to go hunting, so he hurriedly persuaded in a low voice: "Madam, it's very cold today, it's still important to be healthy."

Murong Xue smiled: "Butler, don't worry, my lord and I went hunting in Mulan paddock, you just need to send more people to follow."

Steward Ming whispered: "I'm afraid the prince knows and wants to punish the villain."

Murong Xue said: "Hunting is to prepare gifts for the prince, and I have obtained the consent of the prince."

Butler Ming didn't dare to stop him anymore, so he had to send someone to inform Yeluyan privately, and then led a group of thirty or so servants towards the Mulan paddock in a mighty manner.

Revisiting the old place, Murong Xue felt a sense of loss.The last time Yeluyan brought her here to hunt, the drunkard's intention was not to drink, but to let her accept his marriage news with Yu Pingting.But this time, she also didn't want to drink because she wanted to make him give up.

The world is impermanent, going round and round, there is a cause and effect.
