Beauty on the side

Chapter 128 Xuanwu Gate 2

In the palace, except for Qinger, the palace people who serve me are Zhou Molan's most loyal. And how can I be so selfish?

"Don't look down on yourself like this. People should think more about themselves." I took out the token given to me by Li Jiancheng and smiled and pressed it on his hand. "This exit from the palace is not in vain. This is the token given to me by His Royal Highness. You took him all the way south to find the building above. There is a martial artist. I hope you can learn from him what you should learn.

Zhou Molan pushed away the token and asked urgently, "Can't you go with Mo Zhaoxun?"

"I can't." I put the token around his waist. "Seize this opportunity, it's time for you to find a way for yourself." Fearing that he would refuse, I added, "This is my order. You must obey it, otherwise I won't let you continue to follow me!"

There was hesitation in his eyes, and finally bit his cruelty. He said, "Follow the order of...Mo Zhaoxun!"

Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief for this tough Zhou Molan. When he recognized him at the beginning, he still had a little childishness. Now he has grown into a man who can take on big things. I smiled happily and said, "You can leave now. I'll see you leave."

Zhou Molan retreated to the next step, knelt down and bowed to me, with firm eyes: "Mo Zhaoxun, the villain has to do his best for you when he returns from learning martial arts!"

I nodded and answered, "Okay."

Zhou Molan stuffed the token to his waist, holding the sword handle around his waist and suddenly turned around. His young and firm back gradually faded away under the morning sun. At this time, the sky was completely bright. Li Jiancheng stood in front of the carriage with his hands behind his back, with a faint sadness in his eyes. I approached him and finally said, "You said you wanted me to be really free and happy. And true freedom and happiness are in the hearts of those who love. Without him, I would be imprisoned in the cage of missing all my life. I can't go. I have vowed to him life and death. I can't swear!"

Li Jiancheng sighed together and closed his eyes slightly: "So, have you decided to go back to him?" I shook my head: "No. Please let me stay with you this time and keep each other's secrets. I... just wait for one result and then give myself a result."

Li Jiancheng looked at me with a wry smile, and the sadness in his eyes precipitated: "I can never imagine what you are thinking. The only sure answer in your heart is him. You are not so firm enough." I wiped the corners of his clothes and lifted the curtain of the carriage: "I'm a contradictory person, and I can't be cruel after all."

I sat on the cushion and looked at him outside. He put his eyes aside and stepped into the carriage opposite me, looking at me calmly. I touched my face and couldn't help feeling a little sad: "There is a way to hide my appearance in the world."

I didn't expect that the method used by Princess Qin to cover up the poisonous maid was used by me at this time. Thinking back then, I hated such a disguise, which made me suffer too much and beat too much. However, after camouflaged his appearance, he finally couldn't disguise his inner thoughts.

Li Jiancheng did not return to the palace immediately, but went to an inn in Chang'an. There were five or six strong men standing outside the inn. After Li Jiancheng's carriage, those people stood respectfully and worshiped. They should all be army generals belonging to the East Palace. I felt uneasy. Li Jiancheng coughed at me outside, and I quickly got out of the car. He took me to the next room in the inn, so he said to me, "I need to discuss something. You can stay with me in the room for the time being."

After Li Jiancheng left, I stayed in the room for two or three hours. I didn't drink water for half a day and really felt a little thirsty, so I went out of the room and asked for a pot of tea in the inn hall and found an empty table to watch people coming and going. I haven't seen such a relaxed person and scene outside for a long time. I immediately felt kind and frank, and I also felt that the time was no longer so slow. About an hour later, the people Li Jiancheng saw came down from the pavilion and went straight out of the inn gate and ran everywhere. Another person followed him, but a sign fell from his swinging sleeves, and he still didn't know it. I went forward to pick up the sign and saw that it said: Wang Yu, Donggong Li Gengcheng, from the seventh grade.

Since Donggong is still so careless, I don't know what to think about losing this look. I quickly caught up and handed the token to him. Wang Jun, who accidentally dropped the token, was stunned. I only said, "Your excellency, your token."

Wang Jun nodded and smiled, took the token and left.

Li Jiancheng also came down from above and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw me. I smiled and said, "Since I want to go back with you, I won't run." Li Jiancheng smiled and stroked my shoulder: "Let's go and find the method you said."

The way to hide its appearance is not easy to find in the city, because it is not a glorious thing. After spending a little money, I finally asked a place, so I had a disguised fake face. However, this fake face can't be brought too much. It contains too much poison, but I still want to get off. I know that when Li Jiancheng's counselors gathered today, it was not far from that day. And my disguise will also end on that day. Whoever loses and wins is a painful game for me.

Wude's ninth year, June 1st, late.

The main hall of the East Palace guards many palace people and hundreds of lamps. At night, Li Yuanji came to the East Palace with a happy face. It turned out that Li Jiancheng called the three brothers to taste wine together tonight. At this moment, the wine and food were not yet ready. Li Yuanji seemed to have come a little early, so he came to find Li Jiancheng. At this time, Li Jiancheng was writing in the study, and I was preparing tea and ink. After Li Yuanji came, Li Jiancheng signaled that I could retreat. I don't want to know what they are discussing. These two are either military matters or that matter.

I stood in the front yard of the East Palace, and behind this is a place for sundries. Usually, few people come except the palace people.

In this season, the flowers bloom faster and fade faster. I don't know what kind of tree this is. The blooming flowers are so beautiful but fragile. A gust of wind passed, and the flowers flew in the sky, pale and chaotic. I opened my palm, and there was a cold touch between my palms, as if it gave me a ethereal dream. The flying flowers in front of me began to interpret a passing prosperity of life. I opened my arms and felt the sadness on my back. It's been a long time since I danced like a flying butterfly. I turned my toes and let the petals hit my hair and fly into my sleeves. At this moment, it seems that when I first entered the palace nine years ago, I danced for him for the first time in my life, with such fallen flowers. At that time, I fell in love with him, but I didn't know whether he loved me or not; now, I still love him, but I was afraid that he would love me.

Everything is just that things are wrong.

"Who are you?" A warm question suddenly lit up behind me. I paused and felt a tight pain in my heart, and I didn't dare to turn around. However, the next second, he stood in front of me and pinched my panicked chin, and his firm eyes were filled with the original expectation in an instant. Yes, it's expectation... it's expectation.

And I... even though my heart was too heavy to suppress, I still answered in the faintest tone: "servant Yunshang."

"Yunshang..." He looked at me and muttered this name that was also strange to me. I stepped back and lowered my face and said, "I'm ugly. I'm afraid of scaring Your Highness. I'd better retreat first."

Li Shimin pulled a stiff smile and still stared at me: "Beauty and ugliness are nothing more than a shell. When the candle goes out, there is a touch of dust. I just saw a little of your appearance, and you look like an old friend.

gu ren. The deceased is still a deceased person.

Li Shimin approached a few steps, and the more he looked at me, the more restless I became. I turned around and stroked the flower branches shaking on my shoulder and said, "I don't have such a blessing. I'm afraid Your Highness is wrong."

At this time, an eunuch came down from the porch at that end, retreated far away and bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Your Highness, the prince's end is ready. Please come over."

Li Shimin looked down at me, turned to the porch and left. I didn't dare to follow his back, but then looked at his disappearing corner and lost my mind. There is too much fear in this meeting. I'm not only afraid that he will recognize me, but also afraid that he will be strange to me.

I looked up. There were not many stars tonight, and there were a few light clouds around. The starless place was a dark blue dark curtain. Suddenly, a white light passed by the sky and quickly disappeared on the mountainside.

It is said that this is a sign from heaven.

The wind of the night was close to my body with heavy sadness. The wind was warm, and I tasted too much gloomy coolness. I felt anxious and quietly paced to the East Palace Hall.

There were seven or eight maids waiting outside the hall. I replaced a maid of honor standing for her. The night outside turned into a flat water, against the crisp clinking of glasses inside to break the water mirror. I tightened my nerves and raised my ears, listening to the words of the three people, and the beating of my heart was clearer than this.

With a silver light clink, Li Shimin smiled and said, "Hahaha, it turns out that the eldest brother is still hiding such good wine, and I don't know what else is hidden."

It seems that there is something in the words, but Li Jiancheng cleverly led away: "This is a folk wine that has been buried in the ground for 30 years, which tastes fresher than palace wine. The three of us have not been together for more than a month. I specially sent someone to buy this wine outside today. How can I say that I hide it specially?

Li Shimin has always been elegant. At this time, he still has a strong tone, but his words are a little frustrated: "Oh, it's my misunderstanding. I also hope that the eldest brother will tell me where there is any good wine in the future, so that I can come back with a few altars.

"Why not! Come on!" Li Jiancheng smiled happily and simply clinked the cup and knocked on the whole hall.

At this time, a man suddenly came on the road with the candlelight, and the eunuch followed him trotted to the front of the main hall and said to the maid of honor, "The king of Huai'an is here."

The maid of honor stepped to the palace and knelt down and preached: "The prince, the king of Qin, the king of Qi, the king of Huai'an has arrived!"
