Beauty on the side

Chapter 168 Luoyang Yi 2

The carriage was very stable, Li Shimin and I did not speak, and the atmosphere was peaceful and comfortable. I always had a suspicion in my heart. After thinking about it for a long time, I pulled myself out of his arms and asked, "Lord Changsun helped us this time, but I was not very happy to see his eyes."

When Li Shimin heard this, he smiled bitterly and sighed, "How to be happy."

I saw his face and this helpless sigh and suddenly understood. Even if Changsun Wuji helped us, it does not mean that he is unhappy. Only half a year after the death of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin took me out of the palace alone. In the eyes of others, he was really affectionate. But the court did not let the husband worry too much about his deceased wife. Wei Zheng's sarcastic advice was an excellent example, and at this time, it seemed too contradictory, so helping or not helping is a sad thing.

Seeing that I was stunned, Li Shimin added, "Wuji and I are friends of cloth. If even he doesn't understand me, who else in this court can understand me? How can he not understand it? Some things have never been lost, just like dirt, just like you. I can figure it out, and Wuji will definitely understand it. Do you understand now?"

I nodded, which should be happy, but I don't know why there seems to be a big blockage in my heart.

I don't have to worry about Changsun Wuji's mentality, but Wei Zheng, who can't stop the palace gate, really makes me worried. He had previously carefully told me not to let Li Shimin sink into the world. In a few days, Li Shimin took me out of the palace to Luoyang. Wei Zheng's opinion on me will definitely increase greatly. After returning to the palace, he may be disturbed by him.

It took more than half a month to march from Chang'an to Luoyang, but now there are pauses along the way, which takes about dozens of days. Li Shimin drove this road slowly, but I was worried about the political affairs in the palace. In the past few months, the folds of the court will definitely pile up. At that time, not only will the decision-making be neglected, but Li Shimin also has to work day and night after returning to the palace. The fatigue before and after this time is for this trip to Luoyang. I asked Li Shimin for three fast horses, but on this day, he finally couldn't help my request and asked Xue Wanjun to take the fast way to Luoyang.

After ten days of bumps, Li Shimin couldn't sit in the carriage. His face was entangled, his eyes were dim and slightly innocent, and he asked me if the seat in the carriage would be too narrow. I was aware of his real question, so I told the truth that everything was fine, and wondered why he suddenly asked this question. At the town's inn, Xue Wanjun led the horse to the stable. Li Shimin looked at the big brown horse and sighed slightly. I remembered the question in the carriage. Only then did I understand and couldn't help laughing. So when I was eating, I quietly asked Xue Wanjun to go to the horse market to choose a good horse and told him not to let Li Shimin know and give it to him another tomorrow. A surprise.

It is not far from Luoyang. At night, I stood at the window and recalled what happened in those years. From Li Shimin's arrow, to the prisoner of Luoyang Palace, to the reunion of broken mirrors, to the battle of Luoyang, to the victory and return to the capital. All this is still vivid in my mind, and several years have passed in a flash. At that time, when the wine was singing and galloping, it was no longer repeated. Only that heart was getting farther and farther away, and it was not beneficial, so I had to watch this vigorous memory with a beautiful and memorable heart.

Li Shimin and Xue Wanjun discussed the itinerary in the next few days. To be honest, it is also tiring to sit in the carriage for a day, and it is also a good thing to finally lie down now. The candlelight burst out slightly from time to time, which had a hypnotic effect on this night. I intended to lie down and wait for Li Shimin to return to his room, but I didn't expect to blindly narrow my eyes.

A fog turned out in front of me, and there was a jade corridor hidden in the white fog all over the sky. I was lost in this corridor. I don't know where the front of these two sides lead to. I walked blankly, and every step was carefully tested. I looked around cautiously to see what else there was besides the corridor. However, there is only a vast white fog floating here, as well as this endless corridor. I was at a loss and stopped to go back. Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of me. This man turned his back to me, wearing a white gauze skirt, and wearing water blue silk soft smoke around his waist. Three thousand flowers floated in the wind and stood silently in the white fog, like a phantom that was infinitely mysterious and unpredictable.

Who is this woman? I rubbed my eyes, and this back was still standing in the fog. It was not an illusion. I moved forward and inexplicably didn't want to alarm this figure. However, just one step closer, the back moved, and the white fog filled her turn, covering her glory appearance, and only saw a faint and beautiful outline. I'm sure she saw me because she was coming towards me. I stagnated, my heart rose, suddenly felt nervous, and my palms were sweaty.

I asked in surprise, "Who are you?"

The words swing from here to the other end of the corridor, and the echo is far away, adding more and more strangely. She was still approaching me, but leisurely spit out three extremely ethereal words, which actually answered me.

"Yinqiyan."

As soon as the words fell, she finally came out of the white fog and stood clearly in front of me. I was surprised that this face overlapped with the picture scroll in the palace. This name overlapped with the name Li Shimin had called. This is obviously a person, and this is indeed a person! I trembled violently, and I was afraid that it was important. I only felt that this person's name was strangely scary. I muttered in a low voice, and my forehead was a little tingling: "Qiyan...Qiyan..."

Suddenly, she was already standing in front of me and looking at me lightly. I retreated in fear and accidentally fell to the ground. I looked up at her condescending and suddenly couldn't say a word. I panicked and retreated with my legs shrinking. She followed step by step, getting closer and closer. Her pale face was full of deep desolation and resentment, as if she was blaming me for stealing everything that belonged to her.

I tried my best to scream and tell her not to get close, but my throat seemed to be stuffed by something and couldn't make a sound. I shook my head like crazy and shook myself, but she still kept walking. Something patted me on the face, and there was a stuffiness in my throat. I was shocked and shouted. I opened my eyes and heard my screams. The chaotic breath echoed in the quiet air. I looked at the gray room and was still in shock. Who's fingertips touched my face again? I shrank to the corner of the bed in surprise and saw Li Shimin looking at me with surprise and worry, and his fingers paused in mid-air. It turned out that Li Shimin had come back, and it was him who touched me in his dream. It must be that I slept uneasily. He wanted to wake me up from the nightmare.

I breathed softly. He approached me and held me in his arms, stroked the fine sweat on my forehead with his big hand, and asked softly, "But are you dreaming? What did you see in your dream that scared you so much?

My chest was still suddenly shocked, and I pressed my shock a little: "It's just a nightmare. I forgot it when I woke up."

"It's a dream. If you do it, you don't have to care. It should be tired on the way. Just drink some soothing soup tomorrow. He lowered his head and kissed me on the forehead, but I felt the coldness of the kiss straight into my heart. In his arms, I didn't need to struggle, but did this man belong to me?

The air became cold for no reason, and I shrank into his arms. His arms were so warm that I was lost and made me happy. There was his gentle breath around me, and I fell asleep quietly. When the morning light penetrated into the window and fell into the room, I woke up in a daze and only felt that the room was surprisingly bright. Li Shimin said in my ear that it might be snowing.

Snow? I put on my fox coat cloak and opened the window. A few ice floated in front of me, and my eyes were white. I was surprised and sighed. The weather was very good yesterday, but it snowed unexpectedly today.

The snowflakes rolled up by the wind, stationed on the empty swing, and the shore without hesitation, were so pure and beautiful. Over the years, I have never enjoyed the snow scenery. In the past, I only felt that the snowy day was the coldest, so I only set up a heater in the hall for a while until the snow completely melted. Moreover, how beautiful is the snow in the palace? Looking at the towering palace all day long, the snow just changes the color of the roof of the house. But this place is completely different. At a glance, it is vast and boundless. In the distance is the suburbs, next to the farmhouse, and nearby is the village and town. The different scenery on all sides and the crystal snowflakes on this land have a unique charm.

There was a closeness behind him. Li Shimin wrapped around me from behind in a thick robe and closed the window a little: "Be careful of being cold."

I laughed and said, "At this time, cold is also a beautiful scenery."

Li Shimin tightened the fox's clothing on my body: "You are most afraid of cold, but today you are happy today. If you like to look more, don't freeze immediately, but it's also great if you can keep fit. After staying in this cold day for a long time, your body will also get used to this temperature, and you will not often be entangled in minor diseases such as wind and cold in the future.

I held his palm around my waist and sighed secretly. What's so terrible about being cold? The cold heart is the most terrible thing. I haven't forgotten last night's dream, which reminds me of the portrait I saw in Zheng Guo's palace that looks a little like me. After Li Shimin occupied Luoyang, he turned over the Zheng Palace. Looking back on his feelings on that day, he should not have found the painting, and the portrait was different from the one in Li Shimin's hand. So where did the portrait fall and had been destroyed by the hands of soldiers.

I was scared, but I didn't dare to lean into Li Shimin's arms. Yesterday's dream had lingering palpitations. That woman was his old love, an old love that has always been deeply remembered. She kept reminding me when I fell into warmth that everything I got was due to her, and it was not the most sincere. So how can I face the man in front of me who went to Luoyang with me? The desperateness once became unknown. I was like a leaf floating on the surface of the water, sinking and floating, beating duckling left and right.

I breathed a sigh of relief and asked him slowly, "How did you sleep well last night?"

His voice smiled slightly, calmly, towards this snow-----

"As seen all the way, the world is richer than before, hundreds of families are harmonious, and the hearts of the people are towards the dynasty. I'm happy and sleep very well!"

I meditated slightly, smiled at the scene, and my heart turned around.
