King's man

Chapter 35

The next day, Lin Mei went to the Hall of Cultivating Mind.Yang Xian is in the imperial study, staring at a book in a daze.He looked up at her, and was surprised to find that she was extremely beautiful that day: she was wearing a pure white crepe draped silk dress and a pure white fox fur cape, making her face even more beautiful against the backdrop.It was the first time for Yang Xian to see Lin Mei wearing white clothes, so he couldn't help but glance at her again, but seeing her green brows, green eyes, rosy lips, covered in a snowy face, she was indescribably gorgeous .

Yang Xian suddenly remembered how she looked the day she entered the palace.That day she wore a fiery red dress, and the bright red flowers trembled in the wind, jumping like flames in the wind, the pearls were the heart of fire, and the ribbons were like tongues of fire pulled out by the wind; she walked Lu Lai's drapes were draped, elegant and elegant, and there were blue silk stroking the neck and sash, and rings catching the waist, and the whole dress was worn by her.And she, who controls everything in the clothes, has a seductive and seductive smile like a spirit snake spewing out a letter with a touch of fireworks in her mouth. She is enchanting and enchanting as she walks, and she is beautiful and defiant!Such a gorgeous color.Such a warm personality.Such unscrupulous behavior.That was the she he was familiar with.

"Sit." Yang Xian pointed to the chair beside the desk.Lin Mei remained silent. "Meier?" He couldn't help opening his mouth, calling out her name with a bit of gentleness.

Lin Mei smiled lightly, her brows and eyes were full of morning light, and her red lips were rouge. "Your Majesty, the concubine will leave as soon as she says a word."

After hearing this, Yang Xian became even more surprised.She is rarely so calm and calm, and rarely calls herself a "concubine" in such a serious manner.He looked directly at her suspiciously, without taking his eyes off her.Lin Mei also looked at him with her eyes, which were as deep as a deep pool. "Your Majesty, my concubine wants to leave the palace." She said in a clear and calm voice.

Yang Xian was stunned for a moment before he understood what she meant.She wants to leave the palace.Since ancient times, beauties from all over the world have been vying to enter the palace, and the beauties who came in never took the initiative to think about going out again.Of course, as soon as she enters the palace, she is the emperor's woman. Visiting relatives, traveling, life and death are all at the emperor's will.He should be the first emperor who heard his concubine in the harem say this sentence.Yang Xian felt that this matter was too novel, so he couldn't help laughing.Hahaha, he couldn't stop laughing, as if he heard a great joke.

Lin Mei saw him leaning forward and backward laughing, she didn't move, just looked at him quietly.After a long time, seeing his smile gradually subside, he said again, "Your Majesty, my concubine is going out of the palace." It was the same sentence just now, but with a firmer tone, as if it was not a request to him, but an order.Yang Xian's smile disappeared instantly.He stood up and looked straight at her, darkly.Yang Xian suddenly thought of Qingping outside the palace. "No." He spit out each word, his voice was frighteningly cold.

Lin Mei didn't look away, and there was not even a trace of panic in her calm eyes.In this confrontation, Yang Xian thought of Qingping again.He picked up the teacup on the table and dropped it to the ground. "Who gave you such courage! You just relied on my soft heart to be so presumptuous, I won't allow it, I won't allow it!"

Lin Mei was not intimidated by his posture, on the contrary, she smiled, "Your Majesty is talking about Qingping, why should I wrong my concubine..." When she said that, her smile became brighter and brighter, like a flower like a jade. "What Your Majesty needs is that actor, not a queen, not a noble concubine, and not even a concubine." When she said, she raised her orchid fingers to wrap around a strand of hair. Fox clothes. "Although Qingping, the courtiers and concubines never put him in their eyes. But His Majesty likes him. If His Majesty likes him, he will be accepted into the palace. Why should you be so wronged to yourself?"

After Lin Mei finished speaking, she looked up at Yang Xian, and seeing that he was still angry, she couldn't help walking forward, stretching out her slender fingers to caress his face, "Young Master Qingping, you are handsome and soft, with red lips like flower petals. ", she covered his lips with Danko, her nails were more colorful than her red lips. "A pair of exquisite eyes, the pupils are like spring water that melts ice and snow, rippling with tenderness, just looking at it, one can't help but want to sink into it." The index finger moved to the corner of his eyes, and the voice was soft. "That smile is even more beautiful. It's as bright as the sun shining on a flower, and as warm as a spring breeze blowing on your face. It's really intoxicating!" She looked at him with an expression very much like a prince and grandson molesting a weak woman.She took her hand away, stroked her forehead and smiled, her eyebrows and eyes were coquettish, and her red lips were alluring. "Is Your Majesty refusing to admit it, or is he deceiving himself?"

"Enough!" Yang Xian shouted.His expression was still dazed.

Lin Mei put away that coquettish attitude, and said again, "I want to leave the palace."

After a while, Yang Xianfang raised his head and didn't look at her again. "Let's go, I don't want to see you again."

Lin Mei turned and left, and walked outside the door. The afternoon sun shone on her white clothes, which were dazzlingly white. "After drinking this glass of wine, I will see you off." Yang Xian chased him out with a glass of wine himself.

Lin Mei lowered her head to look at her cloud shoes, the white embroidery thread was exquisitely stitched.You know, he won't let himself go.He can let that person go because he loves him.He doesn't love himself, so what's the point of staying in this palace?My life is really strange!When he was born, he was determined to be unknown and imprisoned in a remote courtyard.When I grew up, I only met a few outsiders, and was called a witch again.After entering the palace, she gave birth to a daughter but became someone else's.Or, am I really a witch?The witches always go to the most lively places in the world, so how can they stay in the cave for a lifetime?As she thought about it, she felt more and more absurd and interesting.I couldn't help laughing out loud.That was the last time Yang Xian heard her laugh.It was also the last time she smiled.He looked at her back, not without regret.

Lin Mei turned around, picked up the wine glass, turned her back again without looking at Yang Xian.The wine in the glass sparkled in the sun.She raised her head and glanced at the sun, which was warm and bright.There was a little sadness in the corners of her eyes.Close your eyes, raise your hand, bring the cup to your lips, lift it up, and gulp it down.Lin Mei opened her eyes and glanced at the sun again.The fingers holding the wine glass loosened, and Dan Kou stretched out in mid-air.The cup fell, snapped, and shattered into pieces.

Yang Xian took a step forward, behind Lin Mei, leaned his upper body forward, and reached Lin Mei's left shoulder.Lin Mei felt Yang Xian's actions, and she felt that the sky and the earth were spinning in an instant, and she felt dizzy, as if she would fall backwards in the next instant.Yang Xian whispered in his ear, "You know too much, I can't let you say it." Then he turned and walked back into the hall.Lin Mei turned around in astonishment, watching his figure pass by the sun and enter the shadow of the hall.She could no longer speak.The wine churned in his stomach, and there was a tight pain in his throat.

Lin Mei raised her head and took one last look at the sun, the light was bright.The corners of her lips were raised, outlining a beautiful arc, and her eyes were squinting, revealing an expression of infinite pride.Walk slowly towards the palace gate.The wind blows her hair up and down, blows the white fox fur on her fox fur, and blows her white dress fluttering.

The next day, Yang Xian issued an edict to Lin Chengxiang's mansion: Lin Chengxiang led all the people in the mansion to kneel on the ground.Thin beads of sweat emerged from his forehead, and were a little bit cold in the cold February wind.I don't know what trouble she got into again, and she will be implicated in the end. If it wasn't for the soft heart at that time, why would it be today.he thinks.He listened carefully to the content of the imperial edict: Meifei is beautiful and always wins my favor.Since the birth of the princess, she has been weak. The imperial doctor took good care of her, but she did not recover, and died on February [-]th.My heart is sad, and I also think of Lin Shangshu's pain of losing his daughter, so I was promoted to the post of Yushi in Zuodu to comfort Zhongliang.

After Lin Chengxiang heard this, his legs became weak and he could hardly stand up.The butler helped him up to receive the decree, and he took the decree and read it again.Lin Mei is dead.He got promoted.How could this be, he thought.Mrs. Lin had already let out a cry of grief.The father-in-law who was in charge of delivering the decree thought he was overly sad, so he comforted him and left.I have always felt that this daughter is a drag, I have always looked at her disliked, and I have always treated her as if she did not exist. Now that I am fine, I have been promoted, and she will never cause trouble to upset him again, so why can't I be happy?Another gust of wind blew, and the sweat-soaked robe was cool, a little cold.Holding the imperial decree, Lin Chengxiang walked into the inner hall step by step.

The emperor fell ill again.For half a year, the emperor has been lingering on the sick bed.The arrival of Princess Changning refreshed him for a while, but with the death of Concubine Mei, he fell ill again and couldn't go to court.Chen Huilan was physically and mentally exhausted while taking care of the little princess and the emperor at the same time.Ouyang Zi came to check Yang Xian's pulse again. "Judging from the pulse condition, His Majesty is fine. It's probably because of excessive worry. If Your Majesty can relax, you can take care of it." After speaking, he looked at Yang Xian, but Yang Xian didn't look at him.Empress Chen looked at him worriedly, and asked, "Mr. Ouyang has a better way?"

When Ouyang Zi asked, he bowed his head and replied: "Ms. Hui, I have a suggestion. Your Majesty can go to the West Palace to recuperate for a while. First, you can relax, and second, the hot spring can also strengthen your body."

After hearing this, Yang Xian recalled the last time he went to the West Palace. When he saw the portraits of the beauties in the harem, he drew them on a whim, jokingly calling them 'Seven Beautiful Pictures', and he took all the scrolls away. Yet?In the painting, he is dressed in white and smiling in the wind, handsome and beautiful.Elegant and elegant.He seemed to see him waving at him.Yang Xian sighed distraughtly again, "No! You all go down."

Ouyang Zi stood up and left.Chen Huilan followed him out. "Mr. Ouyang, what's the situation with the emperor?" Ouyang Zi asked, but didn't answer, just sighed and continued walking.Chen Huilan was stunned in the courtyard.The bare branches of the sycamore tree above the head are slanting horizontally, cutting the sun into pieces.Her heart also seemed to be broken, with strands of pain.Is she too greedy?In the past six months, she was very happy to be by his side every day, even for him who was so sick.She is willing to take care of him every day, even if she takes care of him for a lifetime, she is willing.She treated him most tenderly, caringly and considerately.However, he was still not happy.She gave everything she could give and did everything she could do. She did everything she could, but she couldn't please him.He was grateful to her, he gave her the child, he just didn't want her.she knows.His heart was taken away by that person.she knows.But still love him.It turns out that love is such a powerless thing. It turns out that if you fall in love with someone, you really can't accept others.As he is, so is he.Let him go, she still has children.she thinks.She knew what was on his mind, this should be the last thing she could do for him!Tears flowed down his cheeks and slipped into his lips.cold.bitter.

Qingping was staring at the portrait indoors in a daze. "Come here, let me see if I look like it!" Yang Xian's voice rang in his ears.When he was talking that day, I hugged his shoulders and just looked at him and smiled.That kind of smile makes me wanton, and I like it. "Does it look like it?" I deliberately teased him, causing him to say: "I see that you have become more and more presumptuous recently, how dare you come to bully me!" Is it because I am too presumptuous!Although there was a misunderstanding in the middle, he forgave all the things he had done that made him angry.Thinking of this, Qingping felt guilty and soft-hearted, relieved and sad.What is he doing at the moment?Will you think of yourself again?

Qingping was thinking wildly, when she heard someone calling her in the courtyard. "Young Master! Young Master!" The shout was getting closer, and Sixi followed his younger brother Ji Kuan into the room. "Why are you here? The emperor asked you to come?" Qingping asked in surprise. "My lord, don't ask anything, come back to the palace with me!" Qingping heard that, seeing Sixi's expression, she was also very happy. It must be that the emperor remembered that she was here, so she sent Sixi to pick him up.How unhappy he was, he hurriedly packed his luggage and bid farewell to the master.Looking at Ji Kuan again, Ji Kuan winked at him, trying his best to tease him.Qingping smiled and ignored it.

After getting into the carriage, Qingping couldn't help but asked Sixi again, "How is the Emperor?" I learned the glib tongue from someone, I mean it. Years ago when I heard that he was sick, I always wanted to see him, but I couldn’t. Later I heard that he was cured, so I was relieved." Sixi heard Qingping say this, but instead I couldn't bear to tell him.Seeing that Sixi was silent, Qingping felt a little suspicious, so she asked again, "How is the emperor?" Sixi still avoided the important ones, "Don't ask, my lord, I'll see you soon."

Thinking of seeing each other soon, Qingping felt uneasy, her heart fluttered, and she simply didn't know what to do when they met.At one moment, I felt that the carriage was slower, so I could give myself more time, but at another moment, I felt that the carriage was too slow, and I wished I could see it right away.

The carriage entered the Qiankun Gate, which was still a familiar place.The spring grass has not yet grown, and it is still a bit desolate.After getting off the carriage, Qingping was going to Xiuxin Palace, but Sixi took him to Lanxiang Palace.Chen Huilan was sitting on a chair, while the nanny was holding the baby and breastfeeding her.Look at the baby's whiteness and tenderness, the pink mouth is pouting, and the eyes are watery, very similar to Lin Mei's eyes.Qingping thought of the news that Brother Murong had told him about Lin Mei's death, and felt desolate in her heart.He wanted to ask the empress what happened, but before he opened his mouth, Chen Huilan said first, "The emperor is ill, you should know?" She looked up at him.After Qingping heard this, she didn't know where to start to say "Your Majesty, is he okay?" Her voice was very soft.

"I know you're the one who's worried about him. So I asked Sixi to bring you here. You take good care of him for me!" Chen Huilan said, looking at Qingping.Seeing the sadness in the queen's eyes, Qingping nodded unconsciously and looked away. "He has been a little irritable recently, so don't make him angry. Also, he likes to be quiet now, so don't disturb him; it's still cold, don't let him eat cold food; he's very weak, watch him take a good rest!" As Chen Huilan spoke, her tone gradually became unbearable.After pausing for a moment, he opened his right mouth. "Go!" She picked up the child and turned into the inner room.

Qingping hurried to the Hall of Xiuxin, then walked into the inner room gently, and saw Yang Xian lying on the bed, seemingly asleep.How did you get sick like this?Qingping took a look, feeling both unbearable and distressed. In less than half a year, she saw that Yang Xian had lost some weight, his facial contours became more prominent, his sword eyebrows were messy, his resolute lips turned white, and his whole appearance was very haggard.Qingping couldn't help walking forward, gently holding his hand, tears could not stop streaming down first.

Yang Xianben was resting his eyes with his eyes closed, when he felt someone holding his hand, he opened his eyes and saw that it was Qingping, he couldn't believe it, then raised his head to take a closer look, it was indeed him.But I saw that he was also much haggard, with tears in his eyes.Yang Xian's heart softened, and he couldn't say a single harsh word. "You're here?" he said, his voice weak.

Qingping took his hand and placed it on her face. "The minister is late." After saying a word, he was already sobbing.Tears flowed into Yang Xian's fingers, making him feel infinitely sad.He turned his head away, tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, soaking the corner of the pillow.

Seeing this, Qingping suppressed her sadness, leaned forward, and stretched out her hand to wipe away tears for him, "I made a mistake, and I will make His Majesty feel sad when I come here." Yang Xian glanced at him again, and stretched out his arms to hug him.Qingping leaned over in front of Yang Xian, and couldn't help but burst into tears again.The two embraced and wept, speechless for a moment.

"I heard that you were sick years ago, and I've always wanted to come here. Now, as long as it can make you better, I'm willing to do anything." After the two of them gradually calmed down, Qingping straightened up, looked at Yang Xian and said.

"Let's go to the West Palace." Yang Xian said calmly.

"Okay." Qingping replied, smiling at him. "You can say anything."

Five days later, Yang Xian, accompanied by Qingping, took Ouyangzi, Wang Zongguan, Sixi and others to the West Palace.

Before leaving, Qingping only had time to meet Chu Xi in a hurry.At that time in the evening, Yang Xian fell asleep after having dinner and taking medicine.Qingping got up and went to Yufengyuan.The courtyard door was closed tightly, and the courtyard was silent.Qing Ping went to knock on the door, and it took a long time for someone to open it, a palace maid she didn't know.Qingping entered the courtyard, except for Luoying Pavilion, the courtyard was completely desolate.The garden is still bleak in winter, the withered grass is sluggish, and the loess is cool and thin.When I left last year, there was still a large field of poppies blooming here, with slender flower stems and weak petals, forming a whole piece of colorful and prosperous.There is also the graceful and delicate figure of the person standing looking at the flowers.Now, there is nothing left here.Thinking about it, Qingping wanted to go into the hall.Liu Xue at the door saw him first, and said bluntly, "What else are you here for?"

Qingping stopped, "I want to see her" he said, his voice was sad and soft.

Liuxue turned around and went in, ignoring him.Qingping followed, and Chuxi came out of the greenhouse, and when she saw Qingping, she also stopped.Qingping looked at her, and found that she was still so thin in the cotton-padded brocade robe, "I wore so little, I caught cold again" he couldn't help saying.

Chu Xi raised her head and stopped looking at him. "I don't need to bother you about these things." She replied, her voice was very soft, but clear and cold.

Qingping's heart ached for a moment.What else can he say?what else can i doHe couldn't say anything, he couldn't do anything. "Take care of yourself. Take care!" he said, turning around slowly and walking away slowly.

Chu Xi turned her back.A pair of jade shoulders fluctuated.She hated it.Hate him for coming, hate him even more for leaving.She also hates herself, hates herself for not being able to forget, hates herself for being helpless in the face of him.
