Chapter 11 Chapter 10 Who knows the melancholy
When Anian came to Huayin Hall to look for Zhuanxu, Zhuanxu was not there.
Ah Nian saw Xiao Liu who was soaking his hands with the water in Guixu's eyes, and Ah Nian rushed up and overturned the basin.
Xiao Liu leaned back, put his legs on the table, looked at Ah Nian indifferently, and smiled foolishly.
Ah Nian stared at him, from head to foot, then from foot to head, trying to see what was good about this dead rascal.Last night, she went to complain to her father, and explained Xiao Liu's evil behavior in detail, but her father said that Xiao Liu had no intention of hurting her, and told her not to trouble Xiao Liu any more.She was aggrieved, so she told her father about Xiaoliu touching her. She thought that her father would be furious, but unexpectedly, not only was her father not angry, but she seemed to have a weird smile on her face. Her father comforted her , "After a while, the father will announce something, and you won't mind."
When Ah Nian came out of his father's palace, his mind was full of his father's words, and he didn't mind after a while. How could a woman not mind a man touching her?Of course... that man became her husband.
Ah Nian felt like she was going crazy!Tell yourself it's impossible, absolutely impossible!But—that was the father, the handsome emperor who didn't care about his family background at all, vigorously promoted the poor children and the lowly demon clan, and insisted on going his own way.The father has never had a queen since he ascended the throne. I heard that he almost fought against the entire Gaoxin court. He did not choose a princess from among the noble Gaoxin four tribes, but instead married his mother who was doing hard labor in a small mountain village back to the palace. It was possible for her to marry a commoner of humble birth.
Anian thought about it all night, and hurried to find Zhuanxu, wanting her brother to give her an idea, but she couldn't find Zhuanxu, but saw Xiaoliu.
When did Xiao Liu live in the Huayin Hall?Why doesn't she know anything?Why did Zhuanxu allow Xiao Liu to live in the same hall with him?Could it be that Zhuanxu also knew that his father wanted... yes yes yes!Brother Zhuanxu has always admired his father and listened to his father very much. If his father wanted... Brother Zhuanxu would definitely support him.
Ah Nian stared at Xiao Liu, with an unpredictable expression on his face, sometimes gnashing his teeth, and sometimes crying.Xiao Liu tilted his head and looked at her, very puzzled, what happened to this girl today?
Xiao Liu waved to Ah Nian, "Hey, are you okay?"
Ah Nian clenched his hands into fists and roared, "I'm very busy!"
Xiao Liu stared at her fist and said: "Don't do it, if you do it today, I will fight back."
Anian walked back and forth in the courtyard violently, thinking of countermeasures as he walked, killing Xiao Liu now?But look around, the attendants are nearby, and there is a strange man hiding behind the window.With the shrewdness of her father and elder brother Zhuanxu, it is impossible for her to have the chance to kill her in this palace.
Ah Nian sat down in front of Xiao Liu, and said viciously: "I tell you, I will never marry you! If you marry me, I will fight with you every day! Let you have a bad life every day! I will beat you to death sooner or later!"
Xiao Liu was confused, "I never thought about marrying you!"
Anian was overjoyed, "Really?"
"certainly!"
"I am Wang Ji!"
"Just because you are Wang Ji, I don't want you!"
Ah Nian was a bit confused about Xiao Liu's words, but as long as Xiao Liu said she would never marry her, it would be fine, Anian said: "Then try your best to be a little worse, so that the father looks down on you, and you'd better hate you. As long as you behave well, I will forgive you and I will not trouble you in the future."
Xiao Liu smiled and said: "Okay, I promise that your father will not marry you to me."
"you swear?"
Xiao Liu raised his hand without hesitation, and said swearingly: "I swear, never let His Majesty Emperor Jun marry Wang Ji to me, otherwise there will be a thunderbolt!"
Ah Nian was completely relieved. She looked around and saw that no one was approaching them. She lowered her voice and said to Xiao Liu: "In a dozen days or so, it will be the autumn competition held by Xiao Zhurong. This competition is held every ten years. Through the competition, Dahuang The young people in the village have the opportunity to communicate, and they also have the intention of selecting talents. At that time, all the clans in the Great Wilderness will be there, and the father thinks highly of you, so he will definitely send you to have a look and let you know more people. At that time, I will also go , I will cooperate with you, and I will definitely make the father disappointed in you."
Xiao Liu was a little surprised. As expected, Anian was a child of the royal family. She seemed innocent and confused, but her exposure to the situation in the Great Wilderness made her very sensitive to the situation in the wilderness. She knew clearly that the children sent by the major clans to participate in the autumn competition must be the backbone of the family. Strength, and even become the next patriarch.If these people are offended, then no matter how talented they are, they will struggle in the future. Naturally, Emperor Jun will not entrust such people with important tasks.The strategy of stealthily drawing salaries from the bottom of the pot.
Xiao Liu looked at Anian and nodded, "You are very smart, but you lack some tribulations. Only with tribulations can you be tempered, and only with tempering can you become a weapon." Life is struggling, what do you want to become a weapon?Xiao Liu couldn't help laughing at himself.
Anian stared at Xiao Liu vigilantly, "Don't like me!"
Xiao Liu immediately said: "I don't like you!"
Ah Nian snorted, "That's it. If the father doesn't send you, I will help you fight for it. Anyway, don't forget your oath!"
Shi Qi has been standing in the shadow under the window, avoiding Anian, saw that Anian left, walked over, and asked Xiao Liu: "Are you really going to Xiao Zhurong's Qiu Sai?"
Xiao Liu nodded, "Zhuanxu will definitely go, I want to accompany him for a while, after all, after my father announces my identity to the world, many things will be completely different, let's have more fun while I feel uncomfortable!"
"You and Zhuanxu have a deep relationship?"
Xiao Liu said: "I haven't thought about whether the relationship is deep or not. Anyway, when I was young, I quarreled and fought. When I was happy, I called him brother, and when I was unhappy, I called him Zhuanxu. We played and laughed together, ate in the same pot, and slept in the same bed. Seeing him hurt, I would wish to hurt myself. Hearing that he was looked down upon by others, I would feel so sad that I would forget my own pain. My brother has had a hard time these years. His parents died early, and my mother raised him later. After his mother died in battle, he was alone. He was forced to go to Gaoxin by his uncles at a young age. Xuanyuan was his warrior, but he didn’t have the power to belong to him. He looked good in Gaoxin, and all the daily treatment Just like a prince, but after all, he is living in a foreign land, and the maid can look down on him, thinking that he lives on the breath of Emperor Jun. We have been separated for too long, and I have no idea what he has gone through. Now I just want to spend more time with him .”
"Would you like to stay with them?"
"I would like to get together with them, but I'm used to idleness, and I don't want to be Gao Xin's great concubine, to teach my father, my grandfather, and even Zhuanxu's temperament... Even a naive and foolish person like Anian understands that, and they This kind of person directly confronts is asking for trouble." Xiao Liu sighed, "It's okay if I don't show up, but now that I show up, they will never allow me to be Wen Xiaoliu again. I have been running away before, not only Because I have a knot in my heart, I don't want to treat us, and because I know that once this archway enters, it will be as difficult as going out."
Shi Qi stared at Xiao Liu and said, "One cannot choose one's own origin, even if one doesn't want to, one can only accept it."
Seventeen smiled slightly, the smile was clear and warm, "If the heart is like a bright moon, all changes are like floating clouds covering the moon, no matter how disturbed and gloomy, the clouds will eventually disperse and the bright moon will emerge."
Xiao Liu pointed at his heart with a smile, half-truthfully said: "However, my heart is like ink stains. If you have a bright moon in your heart, I hope you can always make the bright moon shine on my heart."
Zhuan Xu walked in, "What are you talking about? I heard that Anian was here? Is she making things difficult for you?"
Xiao Liu smiled strangely, "I didn't make things difficult for me, we talked very well."
Zhuan Xu apologized and said, "Master has already written to Grandpa and the Queen Mother of Yushan, and you know that your status is very special. You have to wait for Master and Grandpa to discuss it, and it is best to get the consent of the Queen Mother before you can announce it to the world. So After discussing with me, master and I decided to conceal your identity first."
Xiao Liu wailed: "That old witch, Queen Mother! There is also Lie Yang, the stinky bird, you fool! Lie Yang will kill me!"
Zhuanxu reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense! Even Grandpa is polite to the Queen Mother! Also, Ah Yao has cultivated a human form, and now he is called Jun Jun, so he should be more polite when he sees others."
Xiao Liu remembered what happened in Yushan. Lie Yang was a bird demon who wanted to be a phoenix. His human form was like a boy in his teens. He would peck her fiercely and chase her all over the peach forest.Ah Yao is a demon who cannot yet transform into a human form, but is very smart and has a very docile personality. Every time Lie Yang pecks at her, Ah Yao will save her.I haven't seen him for so many years, Ah Yao actually has a human form, and Lie Yang doesn't know if he has grown taller.
At that time, she was too young and ignorant, and always felt that the Queen Mother and Lie Yang were good or bad, but later when she relied on her own strength to avoid death and survived again and again, she understood their painstaking efforts.When wandering, it’s not that they didn’t think about going back, maybe they wouldn’t dislike her as a face-changing monster, but when they had the courage to go back, they were locked in a cage, tortured and insulted for thirty years, and lost all their spiritual power , She knew that she could never go back, so she could only continue wandering.
Xiao Liu asked: "Will Lie Yang and Jun Xie come?"
Zhuanxu said, "If the Queen Mother tells them, they will come right away."
Xiao Liu sighed, "After a long time, the reunion makes people look forward to and fear."
Zhuanxu patted her on the forehead, "When did you lose your sourness? Master said to have dinner with us in the evening. I told him everything about you..."
In the evening, Emperor Jun came to Huayin Hall to have dinner with Xiaoliu, Zhuanxu and Shiqi.
This time, Xiao Liu finally took out the correct shape and started to eat in a proper manner.However, she was not a rule-abiding master back then. After more than two hundred years, the etiquette and manners she had learned had long been lost, and her posture was very awkward.
Shi Qi watched from the sidelines, reminding her in a low voice from time to time, but Zhuan Xu stood by and watched with a smile, waiting for Xiao Liu to make a fool of herself.
Xiao Liu said dissatisfiedly: "You are the same as when you were a child, you are still a bad brother."
Sadness flashed across Zhuanxu's eyes, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, "If you don't bully, who are you bullying?"
Emperor Jun smiled and looked at it for a while, and said, "Okay, you can eat what you usually eat, and you can eat now."
Xiao Liu smiled sweetly, "Father is better." His waist collapsed immediately, and his sleeves were rolled up.
After dinner, Emperor Jun said to Xiao Liu: "The moonlight is very good tonight, let me go for a walk."
"En." Xiao Liu followed Emperor Jun out of the Huayin Hall and walked towards Yiqing Garden.
There are three kinds in Yiqing Garden: lots of water, lots of exotic flowers and plants, and lots of rare birds and animals.It is said that Yiqing Garden was once the favorite place of the previous Emperor Jun to linger.Xiao Liu remembered that her mother often brought her here to play when she was a child.Sometimes after staying for a long time, my mother reads a book, and she fights with birds and beasts while playing in the water.Cheng'en Palace is too big, Xiao Liu has never been to many places, only two places are the most familiar: one is Zixin Palace where mother lived, and the other is Yiqing Garden.
Since returning to Cheng'en Palace, Xiao Liu would often go outside Yiqing Garden, but never entered it once.Cheng'en Palace had already changed its hostess, and Xiao Liu was afraid that seeing everything changed would make her distant memories seem fake.
Xiao Liu walked slowly in the garden with Emperor Jun, her nose was sore, her eye sockets gradually became moist, everything was exactly the same as in her memory, as if she had just played here yesterday.
Walking past the pavilion with couplets, Xiao Liu suddenly ran in and squatted beside the pillar to check. Inside the pillar, there were two painted crooked silk herons. Xiao Liu pointed excitedly, "Daddy, look, my The painting is still there!"
"And this one, this one too!" There were three scratches on the pillar, which were when Xiaoliu stood close to the pillar and Daddy compared her height with his fingers.Xiao Liu also threatened that she would grow and grow, always taller than her father, even higher than her raised hand, until her father could no longer reach or row.
The pavilion has been renovated several times, but these have been carefully preserved.
Emperor Jun squatted next to the pillar and looked at the picture on the pillar with a smile, "This is your favorite work. Didn't you specifically ask Dad to keep it forever? You also said that when you learn female red, you will embroider a silk heron for Dad." the handkerchief."
Xiao Liu suddenly reached out and hugged Emperor Jun.Even though they have recognized each other, she still doesn't feel like going home. Until now, she finally feels that she has come home.
Xiaoliu's tears rolled down, Emperor Jun patted her on the back, didn't comfort her, just wanted her to cry enough, let her cry out all the suffering and grievances she had suffered for many years of wandering.
Xiao Liu cried and cried, as if she really wanted to shed all the tears that she had been holding back for three hundred years. At the end of the crying, she felt embarrassed, and said sobbingly, "Usually, I don't like to cry."
Emperor Jun said: "Don't be embarrassed, I should be ashamed. The daughter's tears are the father's dereliction of duty."
Xiao Liu's tears were about to fall again, he covered his face with a handkerchief, raised his head after a while, "I won't cry anymore."
Xiao Liu dragged Emperor Jun to stand up, she leaned against the pillar and stood up, "Daddy, measure my height again."
Emperor Jun compared her head, drew a notch with his finger, and joked: "You have grown and grown, after growing for so long, you still haven't grown as much as daddy, and daddy can still reach it."
Xiao Liu stuck out his tongue with a smile, took a few steps back, looked at the notch on the pillar, suddenly felt sad, "I don't know if this is my real height, I feel that everything is fake." Xiao Liu also remained calm and indifferent, as if she was completely used to the deformed shape and the lack of a face, but at this moment, she finally showed fear.
Emperor Jun touched her forehead with his hand, and gradually, a birthmark in the shape of a peach blossom appeared in the middle of Xiaoliu's forehead, Emperor Jun said: "The change in your appearance is not due to any strange disease, but because you have a rare disease in your body. The divine tool is called Beauty Flower, it can make people keep any face they want."
Xiao Liu looked at Emperor Jun in confusion, "Sacred artifact? Isn't it a strange disease? Is it the artifact that makes my appearance change at will? Why is there a sealed artifact in my body?" Her eyes suddenly lit up, "Then take out the artifact, and I will be able to reveal the truth. His appearance! It won’t change again!”
"yes."
Xiao Liu said happily: "Father, help me take it out! I really hate changing again. I would rather be an ugly monster than a faceless fake beauty."
Emperor Jun pointed his finger on the peach blossom-shaped birthmark, and the peach blossom birthmark showed a crimson light. At this time, he sealed it with the blood of two people, and two people had to untie it, "At present, I can't help you take it out. But father and father You promise, you will definitely help you restore your true face.”
Xiao Liu Suirang couldn't wait to restore her true appearance, but she also knew that there must be a reason for the embarrassment of Emperor Jun. She comforted Emperor Jun instead, "It doesn't matter, it's been so many years anyway, it's okay to wait any longer."
Emperor Jun stared at the peach blossom birthmark on Xiao Liu's forehead for a while, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.He stroked it with his hand, hiding the birthmark.
The big stone in Xiaoliu's heart fell to the ground, and the estrangement between him and his father disappeared, and his whole person became completely different.
She chattered and asked Emperor Jun all kinds of things, and finally she even dared to say: "Father, can I not be the concubine of Gao Xin? I'm not saying that I can't be your daughter, I just don't want to be the concubine of Wang."
"no!"
"Why not?" Xiao Liu had already started to stare at Emperor Jun angrily.
"Because you are my daughter and I am Emperor Gao Xinjun."
Xiao Liu immediately changed his face, and pitifully grabbed Emperor Jun's arm, shaking it back and forth, "But being a concubine is hard work, you have to pay attention to etiquette when you eat, you have to pay attention to etiquette when you go out, and in the end even marriage has to be a political victim. I really don't want to be a concubine!"
Emperor Jun said: "People must know etiquette and then be ashamed. It is not a bad thing to be polite. As for marriage, who do you think I can sacrifice you to?"
Xiao Liu was tongue-tied, "I don't know who you will sacrifice me to, anyway, anyway..."
Emperor Jun looked at Xiaoliu and said seriously: "I am Emperor Jun, you are my daughter, you must be Princess Gao Xin, this is a national gift, understand?"
Xiao Liu lowered his head and muttered, "Is it okay if I don't understand?"
Emperor Jun stroked Xiao Liu's head with his hand, and said in a sad tone, "I am not an ordinary father. I have too many things to do, and there is a country where the people have to worry. I can't take care of myself like other fathers. My daughter, stay by my daughter’s side to protect her. The protection I can give my daughter is my dignity. Only if you are Gaoxin’s concubine can you enjoy the dignity of a country. Before anyone hurts you, you must consider whether Bear the emperor's wrath, Xiaoyao, don't refuse what my incompetent father can give you at this time, okay?"
Xiao Liu felt that his tears were about to fall again, so he quickly took a deep breath, "Father, I am willing to be Wang Ji."
Emperor Jun smiled and said: "Being a concubine is not all a bad thing, at least you can bully others, be arrogant, and grab whatever you value."
Xiao Liu blinked, "Father, are you sure you are teaching your daughter?"
Emperor Jun smiled happily, fine wrinkles spread out at the corners of his eyes, but it did not damage his charm, "Why do I work so hard to be a king? I can't do anything by myself. , there will be a censor to scold you for being a stupid king. If I am really an incompetent and stupid king, you can't do anything, just because I can't do anything, and you can do anything. Whoever calls me a capable king has enough power and majesty Daddy, can everything be contained?"
Xiao Liu thought it was unbelievable, but couldn't help but want to laugh out loud. It feels so good to have a father!The feeling of having a domineering father is even better!
That night, Xiao Liu and Emperor Jun sat on the stone steps of the pavilion, talking all the time.
Xiao Liu felt that she had a lot to tell her father, she hunted tigers for the first time, she stole snake demon eggs, she prepared poison, she went to prostitutes, she opened a medical clinic... the fat aunt who took her in the mountain village taught her She cooks, she is pursued by a beautiful maiko, the old wood who picks her up to be a doctor, the pockmarks and skewers she picks up... There are simply too many things and too many people, she wants to tell her father to know.
She wanted her father to understand that in the past two hundred years, there were not only pains, but also many fun and happy things. Not all the people she met were bad, but also many good people.Because of these colorful experiences, she can't even imagine the life of being an honest princess. She thinks this is the life she should live, so father don't have to be sad.Don't blame yourself.
Xiao Liu didn't remember what she said afterwards, but she only remembered laughing while talking, saying that later, she was tired and fell asleep lying on her father's lap just like when she was a child.
In the morning, Xiaoliu walked out of the house on tiptoe like a kitten, walked around the courtyard a few times, lazily leaned on the flower tree, squinted at the sun, and smiled happily.
Zhuanxu and Shiqi were sitting on the porch playing chess, and when they saw her and Hua Shuren's beautiful face matching each other, Shiqi's heart skipped a few beats.Zhuan Xu teased Xiao Liu, "Did you steal the fish?"
Xiao Liu held the flower branch, "I talked a lot with Dad last night."
"You are the one who talks the most, but you speak as if you don't speak every day."
Xiao Liu rushed over, trying to pinch Zhuanxu's neck, "I tell you, don't think I'm easy to bully now that I don't have spiritual power. If you make me angry, I'll make you speechless and hands immobile."
Zhuanxu hurriedly said: "Okay, I'm playing chess, don't mess with my chess pieces."
Xiao Liu looked down at the chessboard, and found that this chessboard was not an ordinary chessboard, but a chessboard used by the protoss. It is said that the square-inch chessboard has the meaning of fighting in the four fields. Xiao Liu said, "I want to play too."
Zhuanxu coaxed her, "I managed to persuade Shi Qi to play chess with me, and I will take you to play after I finish this game with him."
Xiao Liu pouted, and rubbed against Shi Qi's side: "I want to get off."
Sure enough, Shi Qi put the chess box in Xiao Liu's hand. Xiao Liu gave Zhuan Xu a demonstrative look, picked up a chess piece, looked left and right, and landed on a certain place. He turned his head and asked Shi Qi, " How is it here?"
"Very good!" But Zhuanxu and Shiqi said in unison, but one was full of sarcasm, and the other was warm and peaceful.
Zhuan Xu stood up and pushed Xiao Liu to where he was sitting, "Anyway, you deliberately don't let me play chess with Shiqi, so you can play with him!"
Xiao Liu clapped his hands, "You look like a big brother!"
Xiao Liu followed Zhuanxu's moves and continued to regret and resent the moves.Shi Qi was very patient, no matter what Xiao Liu did, he would say yes with a good temper.But he wasn't just playing around with Xiao Liu, but he was really playing chess with Xiao Liu, and he didn't show mercy where the pieces should be taken.It's just that after eating, he will tell Xiao Liu that if she made the first few moves, he can't eat her chess pieces.
From Zhuanxu's point of view, it was like a child rolling around on the floor and messing around. The adults neither beat him to stop him nor allowed him to satisfy his request. The second time; if you can’t listen to it twice, you can tell it a third time; if you can’t listen to it three times, talk it out a fourth time...
Half an hour later, the great country that Zhuan Xu had built on the chessboard was riddled with holes by Xiao Liu.Xiao Liu didn't want to make any more moves, and slapped her hands on the chessboard a few times, messing up all the pieces. She announced: "I won!"
Zhuanxu shook his head and sighed, Shiqi looked at Xiaoliu and smiled, with a lingering look in his eyes.
Xiao Liu's heart skipped a few beats, he calmed down, and looked at Shi Qi silently.
Seventeen said, "I'm leaving."
Xiao Liu played with the chess pieces without saying a word, Seventeen said: "I have been worried, but now I see that His Majesty Jundi and Prince Zhuanxu have treated you very well, you are very happy here, I have to go back and deal with my own affairs."
Xiao Liu said, "I understand. When are you leaving?"
"I'll bid farewell to Your Majesty later. I don't want people to know that Tu Shanjing knows you, so I plan to leave at night and stay elsewhere for a few days before returning to Qingqiu."
Xiao Liu said: "Then go and say goodbye to my father!"
Zhuan Xu stood up, "I'll go with you."
Xiao Liu sat in the courtyard and waited. About half an hour later, Shi Qi came back alone.
Xiao Liu asked, "Did my father say anything?"
"I asked a few questions about family affairs, but didn't say anything special."
Xiao Liu said: "It's still a while before it gets dark, what do you want to do?"
"what you up to?"
"Do nothing, just bask in the sun, smell the fragrance of flowers, and eat snacks."
Ever since Xiao Liu said that he likes to eat duck necks, chicken feet, and goose feet, Huayin Hall has always prepared them.Shi Qi took the big box for snacks, and sat side by side with Xiao Liu on the porch, facing the garden full of flowers.
Xiao Liu picked a duck's neck and gnawed it, "My father said that my transformation is because there is a magic weapon hidden in my body. After he helps me take out the magic weapon, I will not change again. You said that if I was an ugly monster, what to do?"
"you are not."
"What if I were?"
"very good."
"I'm ugly, but you think it's good?"
"The beauty of form is visible to everyone, and the beauty of heart is beyond the eyes. I am willing to enjoy it alone."
Xiaoliu's face suddenly became hot and her heart was beating. Shiqi doesn't need to speak now, and if she does, she will always be defeated, "My heart is black and black, how beautiful is it?"
"In the world, A's arsenic, B's bear's paw, it all depends on one's personal perception, as long as you think it's beautiful, it's beautiful."
Xiao Liu laughed loudly, "It's like bastard vs mung bean."
Shi Qi stared at her and smiled, Xiao Liu smiled and sighed softly, "Be careful."
"I know."
"Although everything your elder brother did was caused by your mother, he shouldn't take revenge on you. Even if you pity him and want to dissolve his hatred, don't let him hurt you again."
"do not worry."
"I'm worried? I'm not worried. I just think you're stupid, so I would like to remind you kindly."
Shi Qi smiled and said, "I took the tail of the nine-tailed fox that Zhuan Xu didn't want. I'll bring it to you after refining the spirit weapon."
Xiao Yao nodded. If the Nine-Tailed Fox is the king of the Fox Clan, then the head of the Tu Shan Clan is the King of the Fox King. There is no one in this world who knows better than Tu Shanjing how to use the power of the Nine-Tailed Fox.
Xiao Liu chatted with Shi Qi while eating snacks.Just say a few words when you think of something, and when you can't think of it, the two of you will sit silently.
The shadow of the sun gradually slanted to the west, and it was getting dark gradually.
Xiao Liu couldn't eat anymore, so he washed his hands, Shi Qi picked up the handkerchief, Xiao Liu stretched out his hand, but Shi Qi didn't pass it to Xiao Liu, but wrapped Xiao Liu's hand with the handkerchief, and slowly helped Xiao Liu wipe it off. , He had already wiped it dry, but he still didn't take back his hand, holding Xiao Liu's hand with both hands through the veil.
Xiao Liu panicked a little and lowered his head.
Seventeen whispered: "Fifteen years, don't let other men live in your heart."
Xiao Liu raised his head and asked with a smile: "What about fifteen years later? Can I let other men in after fifteen years?"
Shi Qi's face changed a little, and he tightly held Xiao Liu's hand with both hands.
Xiao Liu shook his hand lightly, and said softly: "Go at ease, fifteen you, I'll wait for you." Since there is no way to cut off that thread of longing, let's give that thread fifteen years, and ten years Five years later, no one knows whether that thread of thought disappeared or was woven into a web.
After dinner, Zhuanxu personally escorted Shi Qi to leave Wushen Mountain.
When Zhuan Xu came back, Xiao Liu was lying on the agarwood couch in the courtyard watching the stars.
Zhuan Xu sat beside the couch, "What are you thinking about?"
"Look at the stars."
"Not sad? I thought you enjoyed his company."
"I like his company very much, but I also know that no one in this world can stay with anyone forever. You and I are people who have experienced too many partings, and have suffered that kind of heart-piercing pain too many times. I don't want to If you bear that kind of pain again, you will naturally become very good at self-protection. If you say it nicely, it’s called rationality, but if you say it badly, it’s called cruelty. Zhuanxu, do you have this feeling? There is another self looking down on me in the air, reminding myself of the loss. Because of this sobriety and reason, even if there is joy, there is a faint sadness, and when it is really lost, because I have been prepared, I will accept it calmly even if I am sad.”
Zhuanxu slid to sit on the collapsed dragon seat, leaning his head against the head of the couch, and looking at the stars together with Little Liutou.
After a while, he said, "I always felt that I was the only one left in the world. Now that you are back, I no longer feel lonely."
Compared with Xiaoliu, Zhuanxu is the real orphan.When he was very young, his father died in battle, and his mother committed suicide in front of his father's grave. After a few years of peaceful life, his grandmother died of illness, and his aunt who had been taking care of him also died in battle.Having lost the protection of his relatives, in order to survive, he had to leave his homeland and came to Gaoxin alone.
Xiao Liu said: "I'm sorry." She is a very selfish and cruel person, knowing that Zhuan Xu is waiting for her, knowing that Zhuan Xu needs her, but she runs away again and again because of a knot in her heart.
Zhuanxu patted Xiaoyao's hand, but said nothing.Zhuanxu once imagined that Xiaoyao should be like Anian, who grew up in sunshine and rainbows, never seen darkness and wind and rain, and was as beautiful and pure as gardenias in April.If Xiaoyao was like that, he would try his best to protect her and shield her from the darkness and wind and rain, but the current Xiaoyao is not what he thought at all, but he was not disappointed. Instead, he felt that this was the Xiaoyao he wanted, even more so All imagine better.Even after a long period of time, they can still fully understand each other's thoughts, whether it is beautiful or ugly, one is not afraid of revealing, and the other fully understands.
"I have something to tell you." Xiao Liu kept something in his heart, and he couldn't say it, fearing that if he said it, it would be a mistake and it would be a pain.But if I don't say it, it's like a poisonous insect is raised in my heart, gnawing at her every day.Only to Zhuanxu, she can confide without any burden.
"Say it!" Zhuan Xu said indifferently.
Xiao Liu said in a low voice: "The nine-tailed fox demon said that I am not the daughter of my father, that my mother is a slut who had an affair with Chi You, and that I am the bastard of that bloodthirsty demon Chi You." The nine-tailed fox demon often insulted Mother, at the beginning she was angry and angry, and she firmly refused to believe it, and she talked back to the nine-tailed fox demon, but for thirty years, the nine-tailed fox demon said it over and over again, and she became confused.
Zhuanxu sat up abruptly and stared at Xiaoyao, only then did he really understand why she didn't come back.
Xiaoliu's expression was dull, but his eyes were full of sadness and fear, "The nine-tailed fox demon said that Chi You and mother are adulterers, and I am their bastard. If you know the truth, you will definitely get rid of this evil seed of me... ",
"Shut up!" Zhuan Xu took Xiao Liu's hand firmly, "You even believe the words of the nine-tailed fox demon? Chi You was killed by his aunt, and the master is such a smart person, don't you know if you are him? daughter? Ask yourself, how does Master treat you?"
Xiao Liu looked at Zhuan Xu, with an urgent need for proof in his eyes, "I am my father's daughter?"
Zhuan Xu said firmly, "You must be Master's daughter!"
Father Wang and elder brother are both extremely smart people, there are two extremely intelligent people who have to judge, Xiao Liu finally smiled with relief, "Well, I am so stupid, I must be Father Wang's daughter!
Zhuanxu sighed, stroked Xiaoyao's head and said, "If anyone tells you nonsense again in the future, tell me, and I'll help you deal with it."
Xiao Liu nodded, "Did you know? The pavilion in Yiqing Garden has been renovated many times, but my paintings are still there."
Zhuanxu said: "Master is very good. At that time, the four princes and uncles joined forces to get rid of me. I remembered that my father had talked about uncle and Emperor Jun when he was alive. My aunt also mentioned it to me, although she and Emperor Jun are no longer friends. Husband and wife, but if you have any difficulties in the future, you can write to Emperor Jun for advice. In desperation, I wrote to Emperor Jun, and he replied to me immediately, saying that I am welcome to go to Wushen Mountain at any time. I was very nervous when I came , but Master treats me like his own son, from how to cultivate to how to deal with state affairs, he taught me everything. When I do well, he will be proud of me; when I do wrong, he will show no mercy Once I was injured by an assassin, and he encouraged me to train my own personal guards, you know? Those guards couldn't even listen to him, and once he tested them, he deliberately gave orders that contradicted mine, He told me to kill all the people who listened to his words later, he said that these guards are the ones I entrust my life with, and they must only be loyal to me."
Xiao Liu sighed: "Father is so good, why do you think my mother will rest on her own? I thought it was Father who did something wrong to mother, but you also saw Anian's mother, Anian's The first name is Gao Xinyi, the small character is A Nian, and he remembers and reads again and again. It can be seen that the father never forgets the memories of the past, and there is only mother in his heart, but why does the mother not want the father? Many times, I really hate her!"
Zhuanxu thought of his mother, and sighed, "I don't know! We can't understand them! Sometimes, I also hate my mother. When she committed suicide, she hugged me and cried, asking me to forgive her. She gave birth to me. , but abandoned me, how do you think I will forgive her?"
Xiao Liu said, "If I have a child in the future, no matter what happens, I will never leave him."
Zhuanxu said: "When I marry a woman in the future, first ask her, if I die, will you live or die? If anyone wants to live and die with me, don't want it!"
Xiao Liu and Zhuan Xu looked at each other and laughed at each other.
Zhuanxu rested his chin on the couch, and leaned his face against Xiaoliu's hand, "When I'm ready, we'll go back to Xuanyuan Mountain together. I want to know if the phoenix flowers in Chaoyun Temple are still as bright as the morning glow, and if the jasper mulberries planted by grandma are still there." Green as jade."
Xiao Liu stroked his temples, "The road to Chaoyun Palace is a bloody road."
Zhuanxu smiled disapprovingly and said: "The road to power and strategy is to step on blood and bones. I not only want to return to Chaoyun Palace, but also the whole Xuanyuan Mountain." He is always gentle and personable in front of people. The gentle gentleman who brews wine and strikes iron makes everyone feel like a spring breeze. But in front of Xiaoyao, he naturally reveals his ambition and ruthlessness.
Xiao Liu smiled, "Go and grab it!" Just like the phoenix was destined to soar to the nine heavens, Zhuan Xu was born to belong to power, and she knew it since she was a child.
Zhuanxu said: "Now the courtiers in the court are almost all Uncle Wang's people. I tried to send a letter to the shark people asking to take Prince Zhuanxu back to Xuanyuan City. Almost all the court opposed it. Naturally, the request was nothing. , if I go back, I must have an excuse so that no one can object, I will probably take advantage of you."
Xiao Liu said with a smile: "Please use it as you like!"
Zhuan Xu pressed his forehead against Xiao Liu's palm, and said in a low voice, "It's great that you're back! It feels like I'm no longer fighting alone."
"Hey, I didn't say I want to help you, but I want to fight side by side with you?"
Zhuanxu raised his head and stared at her proudly, "Will you not help? Who told me that I am your brother! Even if you originally planned not to help, when I was really in danger, you would obediently come to help me! "
Xiao Liu punched him, "You are shameless! Brothers say they want to protect their sisters, but you are so lucky to want me to protect you."
Zhuan Xu sighed, "I can't help it, I can't beat you in fights since I was a child."
"Need to say?"
"Xiaoyao." Zhuan Xu's smile gradually faded, and he said somewhat seriously, "I know you are used to being loose, but I also know that you can't just ignore me. Once I return to Xuanyuan, what I do will definitely be the same. If it affects you, those who want to deal with me will definitely count you. Why should I pretend that I don't want to involve you? Make it clear early on, you have a defense at least."
Xiao Liu patted Zhuan Xu's hand to show that she understood.
Xiao Liu said: "Zhuanxu, do you still remember? Before she died, grandma grabbed our hands and sighed that we are all poor children, so we must support and take care of each other in the future."
“记得。”早刻在心上，怎么可能忘记？颛顼清楚地记得奶奶反复叮嘱。因为父母的惨逝，他已懂事，郑重地向奶奶承诺一定会照顾保护妹妹，小夭却还不解世事，只是迫于气氛严肃，学着他说我会照顾保护哥哥。
“我当时觉得外婆病糊涂了，你是苦命，可我哪里苦命了？现如今想来，外婆好似已经预测到我们的命运。”
颛顼轻声道：“当年朝云殿曾欢声笑语一堂，现在只剩我们俩了！”
小六沉默了，望向天空的星星，颛顼也抬头看着天山，“谢谢奶奶、大伯、大伯娘、二伯伯、爹爹、娘亲、姑姑、茱萸姨，让我和妹妹重聚。”
