Chapter 098 Drunken Flower 2
Because I can't go out of the hall and can't do anything, I want to take a good morning rest after washing this evening. It's also because I haven't been able to ignore the chores for a long time. Li Shimin's order of house arrest made me idle.
When she was about to go to bed, a maid of honor suddenly rushed into the door of the palace and knelt on the ground and said urgently, "Mo Zhaoxun, Your Highness was angry at Mu Fengyi. Mu Fengyi was very scared and didn't know what to do!"
I often go to the Muyan Hall, and I also know her. Hearing this, I got up and walked out of the hall. Qing'er stopped in front of me and reminded me, "Mo Zhaoxun, Your Highness has an order that you can't leave the hall." I paused and saw the maid who came to report that she was anxious to plead, or stepped out of the hall: "I will bear anything."
I hurried to Muyan's hall. When I came in, I saw Muyan kneeling to the ground with tears. The wide sleeves slipped on her shoulders, revealing her white arms. Li Shimin pulled her arm, with anger in his eyes, and his tone was frighteningly cold: "Say, how to explain!"
Mu Yan had already been so scared that she couldn't speak, shaking her body and shrinking into a ball. I strode forward and saw the red palace sand on Mu Yan's arm at a glance, and immediately understood. When Li Shimin saw me, he shook Mu Yan's arm fiercely and stepped forward: "I have always suspected that the matter of the jade pendant will not be so simple, and now I finally understand."
I knelt down and dared not face it: "Your Highness, please don't treat Yan'er's crime. It's my fault that I didn't tell the truth."
Li Shimin whispered a few times: "It was because of her that we misunderstood so deeply and tortured so much! Don't you blame her?"
I asked, "If I'm not surprised, isn't Your Highness also surprised?"
"You..." Li Shimin was so angry that he shook off my hand and strode out of the door.
I suddenly felt guilty. I can think about the people around me, but why is it bad for him? Looking back on before and these days before he went to war, he was trying to get close to me, but I always pushed him far away in a word or two. I began to resent myself, and I couldn't understand why it turned out like this.
Mu Yan fell on the ground and choked. She covered her red arm and told me the reason for the outbreak: "I accidentally lifted my sleeves when pouring tea, and he saw this palace sand." I stroked her shoulder and comforted her, "It's okay. Didn't Your Highness punish you? You don't have to worry about it in the future."
Muyan nodded and suddenly remembered something and looked up and said, "What should I do if your Highness punished you?" I smiled and said, "Your Highness wants me to medit on the temple, but to protect me. Now, Wei Zhaoxun has a lot of opinions on me. Since he can't predict how she will embarrass me next, he has to let me avoid it with meditation first. So don't worry that Your Highness will punish me again for this."
There was a trace of envy in her eyes, and Muyan looked relieved: "No wonder he didn't blame you at all. Your Highness is so kind to you. You must be very important to him.
In his heart...
I suddenly remembered the name I heard twice. That name always inadvertently jumped out when Li Shimin lost consciousness. He read her name, and he slept peacefully for her. That Qiyan is the person Li Shimin loves most.
Qing'er was distracted when she saw me coming back. She thought it was Li Shimin's palace rules and hurried to see if there were scars on my body. I shook my head slowly and sat alone in the window. The faint fragrance floated in the hall with the wind. The pink roses were so beautiful. I took down a petal and put it in my hand, and the delicate coolness penetrated from my palm, and my mind reminded me of the bits and pieces of the past. The vow looks gentle, but there is no temperature when it touches it. When he was awake, he said that there was only me in his heart, but when he was confused, another person jumped out. Where did the vow go at this time?
The petals flew away from the palm of their hands and rolled out of the window and fell on the mud. It turned into spring mud to protect flowers. Did our vows also turn into spring mud to protect another woman's flower?
asked in a trance, "Qinger, you said that if one person cares about one person, you will know what she wants, right?"
Qinger nodded and said, "Your Highness is not by Mo Zhaoxun's side, and he will definitely know what you want."
He can't help laughing. These days, he doesn't know what I want. If I'm not the person she cares about, will I miss the loneliness so much? After saying that, he blamed himself for being too resentful. He shook his head and said, "Go out. I want to read a book."
I don't hear anything outside the window. Although I have to be idle these days, it is very depressing. I often sit at the window and look at the scenery outside. There is a path where I can occasionally see Li Shimin walking by, sometimes accompanied by a concubine. A few days like this, I began to yearn to walk out of this hall. If I let go of my scruples, will I laugh as happily as them?
One day, two eunuchs suddenly came in outside the hall, touching three or four books in their hands. I went forward and turned over. In addition to the Four Books and the Five Classics, there are also several books that exege the Book of Songs. The eunuch said that these were specially handed over to me from the study of Chengqian Hall. I was shocked that these books were not found by Li Shimin himself. Is he conveying a message of compromise to me? Return is to refuse; subordinates are to promise. For a moment, I was a little hesitant and advised myself to let go of my scruples.
"Put it on the desk." I finally compromised, and Li Shimin's appearance came to my mind. Unexpectedly, my face turned red, and I was at a loss for the next meeting.
The separation is so powerful that two people who are getting closer and farther away can unconsciously rely on each other. This may be the power of missing. When you are not around, since you have to endure bitter lovesickness, it is better to open your heart and embrace and rely on it. Well, I'm also in his thoughts, and I'm not dispensable.
Two days later, Li Shimin came, which was also the day of ending house arrest. He sat at the table with me, with the fragrance of freshly brewed morning dew tea. As soon as his eyes were relieved, he knew that the gas in our hearts had dissipated and we could face it calmly.
After sitting for a while, I felt that the room did not need to be warm outside, so I stood outside the hall with him. The spring sun sprinkled on every corner of the yard, with golden warm light. Li Shimin gently put his arms around my shoulder and smiled unnaturally. Looking at my eyes gradually deepened, he looked embarrassed: "I saw you in a daze that day, but what I saw the next day was Mu Fengyi. I really thought I was drinking. Fortunately, it's still not her, otherwise I really feel very guilty about you!"
There was a kind of flattment. I looked away and didn't dare to look directly at the spring flowers beside the fence. There is a question in my heart. If it can't be solved, I can't let it go. I have a question, but I don't know whether to say it or not. I spoke gently and was a little nervous, "Is there anyone else in your heart? Every time you are in a coma, you will call her name. Your Highness, why didn't you take the girl Qiyan back to Chengqian Hall?
Li Shimin was obviously stunned and held my arm straight and stiff. I looked back and hoped that he could tell the truth. At the same time, I also saw his eyes with shock and heartache. This smoke is really the biggest pain in Li Shimin's heart. She... is gone." With a stiff smile, Li Shimin was a little distracted, "It's me who hurt her and I'm responsible for her."
I was shocked and never thought it would be such an answer. Follow him sadly and sadly, blaming himself for caring too much before. I leaned gently on his arm and held his palm tightly: "You still have me by your side. I will always be with you and never give up."
Li Shimin lowered his head, hugged me deeply, and gently pounced on my forehead with warm breath. Those who miss can only miss it silently in their hearts, and those who are still around must cherish it with their hearts. At this time, the east wind gently blows, the flying flowers are dotted, and the mountains in the distance are like eyebrows and the green waves are rippling. At this moment, I found that the world can be as beautiful as a poem.
"Zi Hui misses me, and the stinging is involved. If you don't think about me, there is no one else. Li Shimin suddenly read and turned to me and said, "That day, I saw that you were seeing this page. I'm really afraid that someone will take you away."
When I think about it carefully, I can't help but be shocked. When I came back from enjoying the flowers, I found that the book on the desk had been inexplicably opened. At that time, I didn't pay attention to it. It turned out that someone really looked through it, and this person was Li Shimin. I was surprised, but my heart became sweet. Li Shimin held my hand and continued, "I know you often look for books about the Book of Songs. I have also sent several times from the Book of Songs these days. For half a year, we have been neglecting each other for half a year. I pretend not to care how tired I am. I want to end this battle, but I admit defeat.
And I smiled and asked, "But Your Highness is invincible."
Li Shimin cast a firm look and said deeply in my eyes: "Except for you, I will be invincible."
