Fingers of crossing

Yan Yilan's expression was silent, but she looked at Empress Ning with a burning gaze.Empress Ning knew in her heart that she did not speak, but passed Yan Yilan's side, walked into the inner hall of Shenyan Pavilion, and sat down in a leisurely manner.

"Come here." Gently cupping her damp sleeves, Empress Ning raised her eyes to look at Yan Yilan, her tone was not majestic, but soft, and said, "Sit down."

Yan Yilan didn't move, she just looked sideways at Empress Ning, Mo Ran's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "I wonder what wind brought Queen Mother here?"

Empress Ning didn't care when she heard Yan Yilan's unkind words, she said disapprovingly: "If the Ai family doesn't come in person, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to see the eldest princess."

When Yan Yilan heard this, she smiled coquettishly and flirtatiously, but it didn't touch her eyes at all. "The queen mother never asks about the political affairs of the court, but today is abnormal."

"The eldest princess is blaming the Ai family. Shouldn't Jiang Ningzui be the guilty minister of the world?" Empress Ning ignored the cold look in Yan Yilan's eyes, and said, "This criminal minister will eventually come She did it, but she is the best candidate. Aijia just took this opportunity to test her loyalty and see if she is qualified to stay by your side."

Yan Yilan was silent, staring at Empress Ning with her phoenix eyes, she shook her head after a while, and said: "The empress mother is wrong, anyone can be the knife in my son's hand, but she alone cannot."

In this imperial palace, the scenes of fighting openly and secretly were being staged every day. After watching too much, Yan Yilan's heart became numb.But Jiang Ningzui is different, there are tens of thousands of people in this palace, and there is no one similar to her.In this palace, she is not blindly humble, nor does she follow the trend. She has her own attitude and principles. Although she is in the most ever-changing harem, she has never been stained with dirt or mud.

It is such a distinctive temperament that makes Yan Yilan take extra care of her.At first, he paid attention to her only because she was a descendant of the Jiang family, but gradually, that simple concern has slowly warmed up to another emotion, which has nothing to do with others, and only comes from curiosity and liking for her.That long-lost affection grew crazily in his heart, and all the unspeakable affection turned into pampering and pity in words and actions.

How can I be willing to let you take risks for me, you are the last reason for me to continue on the exhausting journey.

"Eldest Princess, there are too many things to protect in this life." Empress Ning sighed, her calm face gradually softened, and there was even a hint of pity, but when she mentioned Jiang Ningzui, she was still rational and cruel . "Although Aijia acquiesces to her existence, she does not allow her to be your burden. If she can't do it, she is not qualified to stay by your side."

Yan Yilan tilted her head slightly, her gaze passed Queen Ning and she didn't know where it fell.The light coming in from the window was dim, covered with a layer of gray, which faded away the bright and enchanting face of Yan Yilan, leaving a cold one. "What qualifications are you talking about? The queen mother gave birth to so many variables for no reason, but she just wanted to use her hand to let Chi Wei go."

"The Ai family gave Jiang Ningzui two ways back then, letting Chi Wei go was entirely her own choice."

Empress Ning's expression froze, and she finally disappeared, saying: "This is a decision that never returns. Jiang Ningzui is not stupid, loyal or obtuse. The reason why she did this is that the eldest princess is really involved. Is it not clear?"

There was a slight tide in the palm of her hand, Yan Yilan picked up her gaze from afar, and slowly looked at Empress Ning.Her eyes were unreal as if they were separated by clouds and mist, and the expression in them seemed to be able to guess the answer, but also seemed to be unable to guess.

Thinking of Jiang Ningzui's resoluteness, Empress Ning's eyes showed a rare touch of emotion, "Princess, she is for you."

Maybe it's because of the drizzle in spring at this time, so after watching for a long time, Yan Yilan felt that her heart was moist and soft.The feeling of shock in the bottom of my heart was like a spring of water flowing in vigorously, and my exhausted heart seemed to be filled with something, and even my heartbeat had vitality.

"Since she has made a decision and the deal is done, the Eldest Princess can do as she pleases."

In the Shaohua Hall, which used to be full of people, now there is only a deserted one.The wind blew through the empty front yard, sending out empty echoes. It was obviously the spring when all things were revived, but there was no vitality here.

The Hall of Shaohua is no longer the lively scene it used to be.

Xia Sheng thought about it, squeezed the washbasin in his hands tightly with both hands, shook his head to shake off the redundant emotions in his mind, and walked towards the inner hall with his head down.

Hearing the crisp sound of the beaded tassel curtain being pushed aside in front of her, Liu Huanxue sat sideways by the window and saw Xia Sheng walking in. A smile slowly spread on her pale lips, and then she turned her head to look at outside the window.

Now everyone in the East Palace is spreading rumors that Liu Huanxue must have some strange contagious disease, otherwise, how could she lose all the emperor's favors overnight, and let Yan Junyao make such an abnormal behavior, not only did she not treat her at all Concerned, even Xiao Shizi moved out of Shaohua Palace overnight.

Xia Sheng originally thought that even Liu Huanxue, who had never cared about these gossips, would inevitably feel lost after suffering such an accident, but she just smiled and comforted Xia Sheng who was wronged for her.It seemed that everything that happened in the Eastern Palace had nothing to do with her.

Xia Sheng thought, this time Guard Chi left, he even took away the heart and bones of the empress.

"The weather is cold, and your mother's body is just right, so don't open the window."

As Xia Sheng said, she stepped forward to close the window for Liu Huanxue, but she saw her reaching out to gently stop her, and there was no trace of blood on her charming face, leaving nothing but paleness. "It's too stuffy in the room, just let me drive it."

"Yes……"

Xia Sheng's throat was slightly astringent, she thought, maybe it's not because the room is too stuffy, maybe in her mother's heart, this Shaohua Palace, this East Palace, and even this entire imperial palace are nothing more than a palace to her. The golden cage trapped her alive, exhausted all her years, and she could not be freed in the end.

What is sleepy is the heart, and what is boring is also the heart.

"I don't know, how is she now?" Liu Huanxue slowly stretched out her hand, the first time her fingertips touched a drop of dew hanging from the edge of the window, it shattered on her fingertips and dripped down on her palm like tears. "I heard people say that at noon tomorrow, she will be executed."

Liu Huanxue withdrew her hand silently, she looked down at the remaining water marks on her palm, and smiled sadly. "That's fine, if this is the case, my life will be over." Thinking about it, there was a sudden dull pain in her heart, and Liu Huanxue's eyes began to blur, and she forced a smile: "It's just a little sad that I couldn't make it at the end." See her again."

In life, it is the same fur, and in death, it is the same acupuncture point.

In this life, I cannot completely belong to her alone in my life. I only hope that after death, I will never leave and stay by her side forever.I heard old people say that in this life, after death, a person will be reincarnated as a soul. If I can die with her, maybe I can be reincarnated as a human being together, so that we can stay together from generation to generation.

"But, that's all." Liu Huanxue leaned back slightly, leaned weakly on the soft couch, closed her eyes wearily, and said, "On Huangquan Road, beside the Naihe Bridge, I still have a lot of time and opportunities to talk slowly. Listen to her. At that time, no one will be able to bother us..."

Hearing Liu Huanxue's words, Xia Sheng's heart trembled. She was startled suddenly, and the washbasin in her hand fell to the ground with a clang, and the water splashed in all directions, chilling her heart.

"Your Majesty, don't scare your servants with nonsense, Chi Huwei Jiren has his own aura, and everything will turn around."

It's a pity that Xia Sheng's consolation couldn't even deceive her, how could she deceive Liu Huanxue, she just smiled and shook her head, saying: "You go out first, I want to stay alone for a while."

Xia Sheng was naturally worried, but when she saw Liu Huanxue's sleepy expression, she didn't dare to raise any objections, so she nodded silently and retreated.

It was quiet all around, and Liu Huanxue felt a little happy in this deathly silence.

Chi Wei, without you, what's the use of staying prosperous in this life?It's better to use the rest of your eyes to be pale, and use it to describe your appearance.

The door of the main hall was pushed open again, creaking.Liu Huanxue leaned silently on the soft couch behind her, and didn't pay attention, until the familiar footsteps gradually approached, she opened her eyes suddenly, struggled to get up and followed the sound of those footsteps.

White clothes like snow, blue hair like ink, Chi Wei stood in front of her against the light, even though the years passed by, she was still the same as in the first memory.

I want to thank you for giving me a good dream at the last moment of my life.

It's just that this dream is too real.Your appearance is so real.

Staggering up with one hand, Liu Huanxue stretched out her hand tremblingly, and carefully touched it in the direction of Chi Wei.The tear that had been lingering in the corner of his eye but never fell, finally couldn't bear the weight, and shattered hard on the skirt of his clothes.

"Chi Wei, really...is that you?"
