Qingyun Weiyang
Chapter 40: Temptation
Yun Jin has never struggled like this before. On the one hand, it is difficult to resist Na Lanqing's affection and tenderness, on the other hand, he is constrained by rationality and morality, and falls into a dilemma.She asked Nalan Qing to give her time, but she didn't know how long it would take.
She can no longer escape her heart, nor can she change the fact that she fell in love with Nalan Qing.
The heavy rain gradually died down, and when they left the backyard, the thunder had gradually dissipated. This rain seemed to deliberately prevent Nalan from returning at night, so that she could see her mind clearly.
She came back, the rain stopped, and the flood did not cause any impact or damage.She knew that Nalan Qing had only lived for herself in this life, and was not a person with the world in mind. If it wasn't for her, she would never have done those things.
She gave everything she had, but it became Yun Jin's heaviest guilt, which made her feel uneasy.She always felt that letting Nalan Qing bow down to the commander and be tied up in the palace was to give in to her.She was even a little afraid that one day Nalan Qing would really leave forever if she couldn't wait for a response.
After the rain, it looks like new, and there is a hint of coldness in the air, but the scenery of the imperial garden is particularly pleasant, and the rainbow in the distance builds a bridge, which is far and beautiful.
"There is a rainbow, it's been a long time in this palace." Yuan Xi was a little excited, after the heavy rain, he was so charming.
"Wow, really! Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, such a beautiful scenery, let's go to the Imperial Garden for a walk." Huairou was even more excited, wishing to take Yun Jin to enjoy the flowers and view the scenery.
"Huairou, you are really getting more and more presumptuous, don't brag in front of the Empress Dowager, and affect the Empress Dowager's reading." Although Yuan Xi's tone was reproachful, his expression was very gentle.
Yun Jin smiled without saying a word, and never raised her head.
Huairou pouted, "Okay, just now when I saw that Mr. Lan has gone, I want to go and have a look."
"Where did Master Lan go?" Yun Jin put down her book and finally raised her head. She also said why she didn't see Nalan Qingren today, she was busy looking at the scenery.
"The servant saw her walking towards the West Garden."
Yuan Xi had an idea, and smiled, "Queen Mother, there hasn't been a rainbow in many years, you should go and have a look, the servants want to go too." After speaking, he glanced at Huai Rou.
Huairou understood and nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, let's go."
Yuan Xi knew Yun Jin's mind best, and wanted to see Mrs. Lan, but Yuan Xi felt that there must be something wrong with Nalan Qing, otherwise such trivial matters would not be enough to attract her away.
The West Garden is located on the west side of the palace, close to the gate of the palace, where a small river named Youquan trickles.The river shuttles from the outside of the palace to the inside, connecting the Qinghe River on the outside, and ringing the four palaces and nine gardens of the palace on the inside.It's just that today, for some reason, the supposedly clear river water is a bit muddy, and there are some bodies of unknown objects floating on the river surface.
Accompanied by Yuan Xi and Huairou, Yun Jin came to the West Garden and saw a group of palace people gathered by the river to watch, not knowing what was going on.
"Too..." Yuan Xi just wanted to say it, but was stopped by Yun Jin, "Shut up."
She wanted to sneak closer to see what happened.
"It's scary, how could there be a dead mouse."
"And this mouse is too big..."
"Fortunately, Lord Lan arrived, otherwise I don't know what to do, and I can't report such trivial matters to the Queen Mother."
..... The palace people chattered and discussed, Yun Jin moved forward and found a familiar figure by the river, looking down.
The opposite side of the river is connected to the rockery, and extending inwards is the water flow to the city wall outside the palace. There are several black corpses floating on the river surface. The entire water surface is extremely turbid. Nauseous stench.
The little eunuch found the penny and wanted to fetch the body and salvage it, but the penny was too thin and could not float stably in the water, so it was difficult to complete.
"My lord, the slaves are going to fish." Several young eunuchs rolled up their sleeves and wanted to jump into the river to fish. They knew how to swim, and there was something dirty in the place they were in charge of, so they should go to deal with it.
"Wait, it's cold and the water is cold, it's not suitable to go down the river." Nalan Qing stopped them, and saw that she took two pennies from the little eunuch's hand and threw them into the river, and the two pennies floated up without any luck .
She tapped her toes, jumped lightly, and landed lightly on the bamboo pole, balancing on her left and right feet, as easily as stepping on a bamboo raft.In fact, a person with excellent lightness kung fu can naturally float on the water without sinking as long as he has something to rely on.
"Wow, Lord Lan is so powerful."
"Earlier, I heard that Mrs. Lang has extraordinary strategies and excellent martial arts. Today, I saw that she really threw herself into the ground. Hey, I really want to serve her by her side."
"You have a good idea. Mr. Lan is serving the Queen Mother, but if you can work in Yunqi Palace, it would be nice to see Mr. Lang from time to time."
“…”
Yuan Xi couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard that some court ladies were crazy about Na Lanqing, but Huairou stared at those people, no one can take her place.
Only Yun Jin was expressionless, and could not help but complain in her heart. How could she need to do such a trivial matter by herself? She is the head of the Nalan family, and it was originally done by the little eunuch. shot.
This kind of demeanor, such a show of skill, can it not attract the joy of a bunch of people?What's more, Lan Qing's appearance is not as amazing as it is, one can imagine how many flowers and plants she will provoke when she walks around the world with Nalan Qing's appearance.
Yun Jin didn't know whether to be happy or what to do. In short, hearing that someone was infatuated with her made her feel a little bit unhappy, and she thought about it wildly.
Na Lanqing seemed to be able to float on the water, she lightly pulled the gown, squatted down slightly, and found that the death of the mouse was very abnormal.It is impossible for an ordinary mouse to be so big. It seems to be artificially bred. Judging by the appearance of this corpse, it has been dead for two days. How could it float into the palace?
"Bring the bamboo basket." Nalanqing called to the shore, but still didn't notice that Yun Jin was silently watching her in the crowd.
"Lord Lan, here is the bamboo basket." The little eunuch was very attentive, and immediately threw the bamboo basket that had been prepared into the middle of the river.
He didn't throw it that accurately, but when Nalan Qing stretched out his hand, he moved the bamboo basket with the wind of his palm, so that he could catch it firmly.She pushed her palm with one hand, and the water splashed. One of the mouse's corpses was picked up along the water splash, and she caught it in a bamboo basket just right.
"Wow, Master Lan is really amazing!"
"Master Lan is really omnipotent."
Yuan Xi quietly looked at Yun Jin, seeing that her face had changed slightly, she deliberately cleared her throat to let people notice her coming.The little maid who was closest to her was the first to discover Yuan Xi, and after a closer look, the queen mother arrived, and hurriedly knelt down, "See the queen mother."
The group of people were originally in high spirits, but when they heard a call, they turned around and saw Yun Jin, and knelt down on the ground in panic, "See the Queen Mother."
This sound distracted Nalan Qing's attention, she looked back, Yun Jin was staring at her by the river, with an indistinct smile on the corner of her lips, very gentle.Suddenly her heart softened, her feet lost weight, and she threw herself towards the river.
"Master Lang, be careful!" Yuan Xi screamed, and Yun Jin's heart twitched tightly, but he saw Na Lanqing slapped the lake with a palm, spun in the air, and landed on the penny. He flew back to the river bank.
"Give this mouse to the imperial hospital for dissection." She handed the bamboo basket to the little eunuch, no one in the palace dared to say anything, after all Yun Jin hadn't spoken yet.
Yun Jin looked at Nalan Qing, her eyes softened slightly, but she still maintained the majesty of the Queen Mother, "Get up."
After speaking, he took a deep look at Nalan Qing, turned and left without saying anything.Nalan Qing had a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and he followed with his footsteps raised.
"Why did the Empress Dowager come to the West Garden? This pool of mice will spoil your interest." With outsiders around, Na Lanqing could only use honorific names when speaking, but he wished he could hug her and hold her in his arms.
"Aijia hasn't asked you what you are doing to catch a mouse, and you have to do it yourself for such trivial matters."
"The Empress Dowager doesn't know that the mouse hides in the hole in the winter when it stores food for the winter. The mouse died strangely and drifted downstream to the palace. I was afraid of some infectious disease, so I caught it and had it dissected and studied in the imperial hospital."
Yun Jin stopped and looked at her in surprise, "Are you worried that there will be plague?"
"Yes, when I traveled around the world, I often saw infectious diseases such as chicken fever, swine fever, and plague. These are troublesome things. I am afraid that someone with a heart will do them to harm you, so I dare not be careless." It is related to Yun Jin's safety, she Of course she will do her best, she is not that great, what for others, but because Yun Jin has too many things on her mind, she just takes precautions in advance.
"How many things do you still know? Why does Aijia think you know everything and you are so omnipotent?" Yun Jin had to admit that Nalan Qing's ingenuity and strategy, as well as her well-informed experience, are her charm.
"There are a lot of courtiers. Do you want to know more about the Queen Mother?" Nalan Qing squinted his eyes, revealing a light that could always touch Yun Jin's heart.
"Then we'll wait and see." Yun Jin said lightly.
Na Lanqing's smile was even worse, she had a double meaning, Yun Jin definitely didn't understand the other meaning of her words, but she couldn't explain it, she could only secretly laugh.
The scenery in the palace became beautiful at some point. Before, Yunjin didn't care to enjoy the scenery, but since Nalan Qing came to her side, it seemed that everything around her was beautiful.She will like the flowers in the garden at present, and she will like to look at the floating clouds in the distance. There is a softness in her heart that can always be touched, like flowers blooming in four seasons.
"I haven't seen a rainbow for a long time, but today I can see it. It's so beautiful." Yun Jin looked at the distance and was a little lost. His heart seemed to take off. After the closed heart was opened, everything in the world was beautiful.
"Rainbows are not as beautiful as you. If you follow me through thousands of mountains and rivers, you will surely see great rivers and mountains that make your heart beat."
"Thousands of mountains and rivers..." Yun Jin never dared to think about these things, never thought that there are other possibilities in her life, but the appearance of Nalan Qing disturbed her originally peaceful heart, now , she actually began to yearn for the outside of the palace and the future.
But she still hasn't figured out how to deal with her relationship with Nalan Qing, and her son, Jiang Shan...
There is a kind of sadness that coexists with pain and happiness. Yunjin tosses and turns every day, and can't fall asleep without drinking soothing tea at night, and often wakes up at night.Ever since she became the empress dowager, she often woke up in a light sleep, and now facing this feeling, it was even more difficult to fall asleep.
It was night, Yun Jin took off her clothes and sat on the side of the bed, feeling tired but not sleepy.
"Yuanxi, Yuanxi..." I don't know what's going on with Yuanxi, but after serving and changing clothes, no one is seen, and the calming tea is not brought.
Yun Jin softly rubbed the corners of her eyes tiredly, felt a faint pain in her forehead, and at the same time heard someone approaching, she thought it was Yuan Xi, "What are you doing today..."
Looking up, it was Nalan Qing's original alluring appearance. After she took off the mask, she was so pleasing to the eye, every time Yun Jin saw her real face, her heartbeat would speed up.She had to admit that she also liked looking at Nalan Qing, just like she liked looking at herself.
"I heard from Yuanxi that you haven't been sleeping well these days. I made you soothing soup. The ones you drink on weekdays can certainly help you sleep, but they will make you more tired during the day." Nalanqing put the tray aside and picked it up. Wan sat beside her kneeling, stirring the porcelain spoon gently, "It's not hot anymore, it's cold, so don't drink it too cold."
Nalanqing's gentle smile hung on the corner of her mouth, she scooped up a spoonful and brought it to Yunjin's mouth, Yunjin stared at her blankly, Nalanqing's gestures caught her eyes.She forgot to refuse, and just opened her mouth slightly. The warm soup with a hint of cinnamon lingered in her mouth, and her heart became hot.
I don't know if it's the fragrance of Anshen Decoction or what, but there is a sense of tranquility in the hall.
"I ordered you some soothing incense to help you sleep." Seeing Yun Jin finish the soup obediently, Nalan Qing felt happy.
"Well, it's refreshing and comfortable to smell." At this moment, Yun Jin was only infinitely soft, and every frown and smile was touching.
"Close your eyes and go to sleep now, and don't think about anything." Nalan Qing helped her to lie down, covered her with the quilt, and sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes like water.
"You go back to sleep too." Yun Jin had never been so at ease, looking at Nalan Qing sitting next to her, she felt only stability and warmth in her heart.
Na Lanqing leaned over slightly, stroked her forehead, and kissed her lightly, "I'm not sleepy, I want to watch you fall asleep, I can't watch you much due to red tape, and I have to wear a mask to change my voice, now it's quiet and silent at night. Outsiders, I always want to look at you a few more times. You can sleep peacefully, and I will sit by your side and watch over you."
Yun Jin felt as if she was about to be melted by her gentleness, but she just smiled slightly and closed her eyes slightly.
Nalan Qing didn't know how long he had been looking at her, from sitting on the bed to sitting by the bed, he was always looking for different angles to look at her.Yun Jin was so tense, even when she was sleeping, she was so peaceful and elegant, she never even turned over.
There is always a seductive charm in the dark night, the dim lights flicker on and off, Nalan Qing was not sleepy at all, after changing the charcoal fire for Yunjin's stove, he was sleepy, sat on the side of the bed unconsciously, He fell asleep resting his forehead.
Perhaps driven by subconsciousness, Yun Jin was sleeping peacefully, but suddenly woke up.She saw Na Lanqing sitting on the floor next to the bed and fell asleep, and her heart ached. She propped up her body and looked at her, feeling warm and reluctant.She couldn't help wanting to caress Nalan Qing's face, she hung her hand in the air for a moment, then put it down again.
She sighed slightly, and fell asleep on her side.
Nalan Qing slowly opened his eyes, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.Yun Jin's every frown and smile, every move affects her heart, because she loves her deeply, so she can't bear to force her.
Yun Jin had never slept so peacefully before, when she woke up, Yuan Xi and Huairou were already waiting, and Na Lanqing beside the bed was nowhere to be seen.She didn't even know when Nalan Qing left, did she sleep so deeply?
"Empress Dowager, this servant will help you change your clothes."
"Ah."
It seems that everything is the same as before, and it seems that there is something different. Yun Jin only feels that he is refreshed, but every time he thinks of Nalan Qing, he always feels a little pain in his heart.She has tried her best not to let herself think deeply, but she can't control her thoughts.
The breakfast was exquisite, the soup and cakes were bright in color, Yunjin knew that this must be Nalanqing's cooking again.Did she stay up all night?Get up early to make breakfast for yourself?Yun Jin really didn't know if he could respond to this deep affection and heart.
The court affairs have been peaceful recently, and Yun Jin has gradually let Qin Yu handle state affairs on his own, without going through him unless he has to.In her consciousness, she is slowly cultivating him to be independent so that he can take charge of the government as soon as possible, otherwise she will never be able to let go of the burden on her shoulders.
It was just strange that Nalan Qing never saw anyone during the day, and Yun Jin never summoned her, but every time she went to bed at night, she showed up on time with soothing soup.Perhaps it was because of the night, Yunjin never noticed that Nalanqing's complexion was not good, and her body was hot due to the wind and cold, but she was still as usual, considerate and accompanied Yunjin to sleep.
Every night, Yun Jin would wake up at a certain time, always at that time, she would secretly stare at Na Lanqing, every time she couldn't help but want to touch her, every time she thought of etiquette, morality and identity, she would feel Suppress that urge.
It was like this for five consecutive days, until the sixth day, Yunjin found that the taste of the breakfast was different, it didn't look like it was made by Nalan Qing.
"Queen Mother, what do you think of the taste?" Huairou looked at her expectantly.
"It's okay." Yun Jin replied lightly, but seeing Huairou drooping her head, she was very depressed, "Sure enough, I still can't compare to Lord Lang."
"You made this?" Yun Jin took another look, and it was indeed not as beautiful and tasteful as before, and it turned out that she didn't make it.
"Although it was done by the servants, Lord Lang personally taught it. She said that if she is gone one day, let the servants take good care of the Queen Mother's meals."
"Okay, why aren't you here?" Yun Jin immediately lowered her face when she heard this, losing her appetite.It was an unintentional remark, but it made her sad to hear it. Could it be that Nalan Qing will leave one day and return to his own world one day.
"Slave made a slip of the tongue..." Huairou glanced at Yuan Xi, not knowing why she would suddenly touch the Queen Mother, only Yuan Xi understood that she just cared too much about her, and was already afraid of losing her, but if she was really afraid, she should cherish it ah.
Yuan Xi could only recite these silently in his heart.
I always felt that something was wrong with Na Lanqing these past few days, and I couldn't see what was wrong. Yun Jin couldn't find a reason to summon her, and could only look forward to seeing her at night, but today, the person who walked in with An An Shen Tang was Yuan Xi.
"Why are you? Where's Lan Qing?"
Yuan Xi hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to answer or not.
"What? Is there something that I can't let the Ai family know?" Yun Jin finally felt that something was being hidden from her, and it had something to do with Nalan Qing.
"Master Lang is suffering from wind and cold, and she is not in good health and cannot come to serve her. She was able to hold on a few days ago, but today it got worse for some reason, and her whole body is weak. The servant has already given her medicine according to the wind and cold prescription."
Yun Jin felt a pain in her heart, she got up suddenly, put on a coat, and rushed to the backyard.It must have been caused by sitting on the side of the bed and falling asleep during the few days when she was with her. This Nalan Qing really didn't know how to cherish herself.
She blamed and distressed at the same time in her heart, and hurried forward.
The lights in the other garden were dimly lit, and Yun Jin ordered Yuan Xi to keep watch. Before stepping in, he remembered the scene of Nalan Qing getting out of the bath, and blushed unconsciously.
Nalan Qing had never been so seriously ill, and he didn't feel that he was very weak. He just saw that his face was pale today, so he didn't go to wait on him because he was afraid that Yun Jin would find out.She was sick in bed, and she went to pour water when she felt thirsty. She felt dizzy before touching the kettle, but she was held by someone while her body was shaking.
Yun Jin's soft arms supported her body, her eyes were full of worry, looking at Nalan Qingqing, she was angry and worried.
"Do you get sick too? You are omnipotent on weekdays. What happened today?" Mingming was angry and blamed, but Na Lanqing could hear the distress and reluctance. Where was she still uncomfortable? At that moment, Jin disappeared.
"It's been a while, why aren't you sleeping?"
"You are so sick, how can I sleep, I must have suffered from the cold a few nights ago, and told you to go to sleep, you will never listen to me."
"You don't know how wonderful it is to watch you fall asleep. This little illness is nothing. I want to watch you for the rest of my life." Nalan Qing's face was like white jade, but the cold caused his lips to look pale. Yun Jin helped her to the side of the bed, feeling extremely uncomfortable in her heart.
"Nalanqing, how can I let you do this?"
Nalan Qing smiled, charming and charming, "You have no virtue and incompetence, and I will do the same. What's more, you are virtuous, capable, talented, and beautiful. No matter what you do, I will be very happy in my heart."
The more she said that, the more uncomfortable Yunjin felt. She held Nalan Qing's arms slightly tighter, biting her lower lip, unable to say a word.
"Jiner." Looking at her expression, Nalan Qing knew that she was blaming herself again. "I told you to give you time, and this time can be indefinitely. You don't have to burden yourself, you know? Even if you don't accept me, you won't accept me." Relationship, I love you is my business, nothing to do with you...."
Before the words finished, Nalanqing felt her lips pressed tightly by Yun Jin, her pupils were slightly opened, and she didn't expect Yun Jin to kiss her suddenly.
It's just that she didn't know how sad Yun Jin felt when she heard what she said. It was as if she was holding a knife to gouge out her heart. The sprout of emotion had grown into a towering tree in her heart, and she didn't want to forcefully suppress it anymore. .
Na Lanqing gently moved her thin lips, and when her lips and teeth touched, she carefully opened Yun Jin's white teeth, as if slowly walking into her heart.Yun Jin didn't know where she got her strength, but by accident, she fell into the heat wave.Nalan Qing lay down slowly, hooked Yun Jin's waist, and leaned over himself.
At this moment, Yun Jin didn't want to think about anything, she just wanted to be with Nalan Qing.
She can no longer escape her heart, nor can she change the fact that she fell in love with Nalan Qing.
The heavy rain gradually died down, and when they left the backyard, the thunder had gradually dissipated. This rain seemed to deliberately prevent Nalan from returning at night, so that she could see her mind clearly.
She came back, the rain stopped, and the flood did not cause any impact or damage.She knew that Nalan Qing had only lived for herself in this life, and was not a person with the world in mind. If it wasn't for her, she would never have done those things.
She gave everything she had, but it became Yun Jin's heaviest guilt, which made her feel uneasy.She always felt that letting Nalan Qing bow down to the commander and be tied up in the palace was to give in to her.She was even a little afraid that one day Nalan Qing would really leave forever if she couldn't wait for a response.
After the rain, it looks like new, and there is a hint of coldness in the air, but the scenery of the imperial garden is particularly pleasant, and the rainbow in the distance builds a bridge, which is far and beautiful.
"There is a rainbow, it's been a long time in this palace." Yuan Xi was a little excited, after the heavy rain, he was so charming.
"Wow, really! Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, such a beautiful scenery, let's go to the Imperial Garden for a walk." Huairou was even more excited, wishing to take Yun Jin to enjoy the flowers and view the scenery.
"Huairou, you are really getting more and more presumptuous, don't brag in front of the Empress Dowager, and affect the Empress Dowager's reading." Although Yuan Xi's tone was reproachful, his expression was very gentle.
Yun Jin smiled without saying a word, and never raised her head.
Huairou pouted, "Okay, just now when I saw that Mr. Lan has gone, I want to go and have a look."
"Where did Master Lan go?" Yun Jin put down her book and finally raised her head. She also said why she didn't see Nalan Qingren today, she was busy looking at the scenery.
"The servant saw her walking towards the West Garden."
Yuan Xi had an idea, and smiled, "Queen Mother, there hasn't been a rainbow in many years, you should go and have a look, the servants want to go too." After speaking, he glanced at Huai Rou.
Huairou understood and nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, let's go."
Yuan Xi knew Yun Jin's mind best, and wanted to see Mrs. Lan, but Yuan Xi felt that there must be something wrong with Nalan Qing, otherwise such trivial matters would not be enough to attract her away.
The West Garden is located on the west side of the palace, close to the gate of the palace, where a small river named Youquan trickles.The river shuttles from the outside of the palace to the inside, connecting the Qinghe River on the outside, and ringing the four palaces and nine gardens of the palace on the inside.It's just that today, for some reason, the supposedly clear river water is a bit muddy, and there are some bodies of unknown objects floating on the river surface.
Accompanied by Yuan Xi and Huairou, Yun Jin came to the West Garden and saw a group of palace people gathered by the river to watch, not knowing what was going on.
"Too..." Yuan Xi just wanted to say it, but was stopped by Yun Jin, "Shut up."
She wanted to sneak closer to see what happened.
"It's scary, how could there be a dead mouse."
"And this mouse is too big..."
"Fortunately, Lord Lan arrived, otherwise I don't know what to do, and I can't report such trivial matters to the Queen Mother."
..... The palace people chattered and discussed, Yun Jin moved forward and found a familiar figure by the river, looking down.
The opposite side of the river is connected to the rockery, and extending inwards is the water flow to the city wall outside the palace. There are several black corpses floating on the river surface. The entire water surface is extremely turbid. Nauseous stench.

She tapped her toes, jumped lightly, and landed lightly on the bamboo pole, balancing on her left and right feet, as easily as stepping on a bamboo raft.In fact, a person with excellent lightness kung fu can naturally float on the water without sinking as long as he has something to rely on.
"Wow, Lord Lan is so powerful."
"Earlier, I heard that Mrs. Lang has extraordinary strategies and excellent martial arts. Today, I saw that she really threw herself into the ground. Hey, I really want to serve her by her side."
"You have a good idea. Mr. Lan is serving the Queen Mother, but if you can work in Yunqi Palace, it would be nice to see Mr. Lang from time to time."

"There are a lot of courtiers. Do you want to know more about the Queen Mother?" Nalan Qing squinted his eyes, revealing a light that could always touch Yun Jin's heart.
"Then we'll wait and see." Yun Jin said lightly.
Na Lanqing's smile was even worse, she had a double meaning, Yun Jin definitely didn't understand the other meaning of her words, but she couldn't explain it, she could only secretly laugh.
The scenery in the palace became beautiful at some point. Before, Yunjin didn't care to enjoy the scenery, but since Nalan Qing came to her side, it seemed that everything around her was beautiful.She will like the flowers in the garden at present, and she will like to look at the floating clouds in the distance. There is a softness in her heart that can always be touched, like flowers blooming in four seasons.
"I haven't seen a rainbow for a long time, but today I can see it. It's so beautiful." Yun Jin looked at the distance and was a little lost. His heart seemed to take off. After the closed heart was opened, everything in the world was beautiful.
"Rainbows are not as beautiful as you. If you follow me through thousands of mountains and rivers, you will surely see great rivers and mountains that make your heart beat."
"Thousands of mountains and rivers..." Yun Jin never dared to think about these things, never thought that there are other possibilities in her life, but the appearance of Nalan Qing disturbed her originally peaceful heart, now , she actually began to yearn for the outside of the palace and the future.
But she still hasn't figured out how to deal with her relationship with Nalan Qing, and her son, Jiang Shan...
There is a kind of sadness that coexists with pain and happiness. Yunjin tosses and turns every day, and can't fall asleep without drinking soothing tea at night, and often wakes up at night.Ever since she became the empress dowager, she often woke up in a light sleep, and now facing this feeling, it was even more difficult to fall asleep.
It was night, Yun Jin took off her clothes and sat on the side of the bed, feeling tired but not sleepy.
"Yuanxi, Yuanxi..." I don't know what's going on with Yuanxi, but after serving and changing clothes, no one is seen, and the calming tea is not brought.
Yun Jin softly rubbed the corners of her eyes tiredly, felt a faint pain in her forehead, and at the same time heard someone approaching, she thought it was Yuan Xi, "What are you doing today..."
Looking up, it was Nalan Qing's original alluring appearance. After she took off the mask, she was so pleasing to the eye, every time Yun Jin saw her real face, her heartbeat would speed up.She had to admit that she also liked looking at Nalan Qing, just like she liked looking at herself.
"I heard from Yuanxi that you haven't been sleeping well these days. I made you soothing soup. The ones you drink on weekdays can certainly help you sleep, but they will make you more tired during the day." Nalanqing put the tray aside and picked it up. Wan sat beside her kneeling, stirring the porcelain spoon gently, "It's not hot anymore, it's cold, so don't drink it too cold."
Nalanqing's gentle smile hung on the corner of her mouth, she scooped up a spoonful and brought it to Yunjin's mouth, Yunjin stared at her blankly, Nalanqing's gestures caught her eyes.She forgot to refuse, and just opened her mouth slightly. The warm soup with a hint of cinnamon lingered in her mouth, and her heart became hot.
I don't know if it's the fragrance of Anshen Decoction or what, but there is a sense of tranquility in the hall.
"I ordered you some soothing incense to help you sleep." Seeing Yun Jin finish the soup obediently, Nalan Qing felt happy.
"Well, it's refreshing and comfortable to smell." At this moment, Yun Jin was only infinitely soft, and every frown and smile was touching.
"Close your eyes and go to sleep now, and don't think about anything." Nalan Qing helped her to lie down, covered her with the quilt, and sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes like water.
"You go back to sleep too." Yun Jin had never been so at ease, looking at Nalan Qing sitting next to her, she felt only stability and warmth in her heart.
Na Lanqing leaned over slightly, stroked her forehead, and kissed her lightly, "I'm not sleepy, I want to watch you fall asleep, I can't watch you much due to red tape, and I have to wear a mask to change my voice, now it's quiet and silent at night. Outsiders, I always want to look at you a few more times. You can sleep peacefully, and I will sit by your side and watch over you."
Yun Jin felt as if she was about to be melted by her gentleness, but she just smiled slightly and closed her eyes slightly.
Nalan Qing didn't know how long he had been looking at her, from sitting on the bed to sitting by the bed, he was always looking for different angles to look at her.Yun Jin was so tense, even when she was sleeping, she was so peaceful and elegant, she never even turned over.
There is always a seductive charm in the dark night, the dim lights flicker on and off, Nalan Qing was not sleepy at all, after changing the charcoal fire for Yunjin's stove, he was sleepy, sat on the side of the bed unconsciously, He fell asleep resting his forehead.
Perhaps driven by subconsciousness, Yun Jin was sleeping peacefully, but suddenly woke up.She saw Na Lanqing sitting on the floor next to the bed and fell asleep, and her heart ached. She propped up her body and looked at her, feeling warm and reluctant.She couldn't help wanting to caress Nalan Qing's face, she hung her hand in the air for a moment, then put it down again.
She sighed slightly, and fell asleep on her side.
Nalan Qing slowly opened his eyes, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.Yun Jin's every frown and smile, every move affects her heart, because she loves her deeply, so she can't bear to force her.
Yun Jin had never slept so peacefully before, when she woke up, Yuan Xi and Huairou were already waiting, and Na Lanqing beside the bed was nowhere to be seen.She didn't even know when Nalan Qing left, did she sleep so deeply?
"Empress Dowager, this servant will help you change your clothes."
"Ah."
It seems that everything is the same as before, and it seems that there is something different. Yun Jin only feels that he is refreshed, but every time he thinks of Nalan Qing, he always feels a little pain in his heart.She has tried her best not to let herself think deeply, but she can't control her thoughts.
The breakfast was exquisite, the soup and cakes were bright in color, Yunjin knew that this must be Nalanqing's cooking again.Did she stay up all night?Get up early to make breakfast for yourself?Yun Jin really didn't know if he could respond to this deep affection and heart.
The court affairs have been peaceful recently, and Yun Jin has gradually let Qin Yu handle state affairs on his own, without going through him unless he has to.In her consciousness, she is slowly cultivating him to be independent so that he can take charge of the government as soon as possible, otherwise she will never be able to let go of the burden on her shoulders.
It was just strange that Nalan Qing never saw anyone during the day, and Yun Jin never summoned her, but every time she went to bed at night, she showed up on time with soothing soup.Perhaps it was because of the night, Yunjin never noticed that Nalanqing's complexion was not good, and her body was hot due to the wind and cold, but she was still as usual, considerate and accompanied Yunjin to sleep.
Every night, Yun Jin would wake up at a certain time, always at that time, she would secretly stare at Na Lanqing, every time she couldn't help but want to touch her, every time she thought of etiquette, morality and identity, she would feel Suppress that urge.
It was like this for five consecutive days, until the sixth day, Yunjin found that the taste of the breakfast was different, it didn't look like it was made by Nalan Qing.
"Queen Mother, what do you think of the taste?" Huairou looked at her expectantly.
"It's okay." Yun Jin replied lightly, but seeing Huairou drooping her head, she was very depressed, "Sure enough, I still can't compare to Lord Lang."
"You made this?" Yun Jin took another look, and it was indeed not as beautiful and tasteful as before, and it turned out that she didn't make it.
"Although it was done by the servants, Lord Lang personally taught it. She said that if she is gone one day, let the servants take good care of the Queen Mother's meals."
"Okay, why aren't you here?" Yun Jin immediately lowered her face when she heard this, losing her appetite.It was an unintentional remark, but it made her sad to hear it. Could it be that Nalan Qing will leave one day and return to his own world one day.
"Slave made a slip of the tongue..." Huairou glanced at Yuan Xi, not knowing why she would suddenly touch the Queen Mother, only Yuan Xi understood that she just cared too much about her, and was already afraid of losing her, but if she was really afraid, she should cherish it ah.
Yuan Xi could only recite these silently in his heart.
I always felt that something was wrong with Na Lanqing these past few days, and I couldn't see what was wrong. Yun Jin couldn't find a reason to summon her, and could only look forward to seeing her at night, but today, the person who walked in with An An Shen Tang was Yuan Xi.
"Why are you? Where's Lan Qing?"
Yuan Xi hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to answer or not.
"What? Is there something that I can't let the Ai family know?" Yun Jin finally felt that something was being hidden from her, and it had something to do with Nalan Qing.
"Master Lang is suffering from wind and cold, and she is not in good health and cannot come to serve her. She was able to hold on a few days ago, but today it got worse for some reason, and her whole body is weak. The servant has already given her medicine according to the wind and cold prescription."
Yun Jin felt a pain in her heart, she got up suddenly, put on a coat, and rushed to the backyard.It must have been caused by sitting on the side of the bed and falling asleep during the few days when she was with her. This Nalan Qing really didn't know how to cherish herself.
She blamed and distressed at the same time in her heart, and hurried forward.
The lights in the other garden were dimly lit, and Yun Jin ordered Yuan Xi to keep watch. Before stepping in, he remembered the scene of Nalan Qing getting out of the bath, and blushed unconsciously.
Nalan Qing had never been so seriously ill, and he didn't feel that he was very weak. He just saw that his face was pale today, so he didn't go to wait on him because he was afraid that Yun Jin would find out.She was sick in bed, and she went to pour water when she felt thirsty. She felt dizzy before touching the kettle, but she was held by someone while her body was shaking.
Yun Jin's soft arms supported her body, her eyes were full of worry, looking at Nalan Qingqing, she was angry and worried.
"Do you get sick too? You are omnipotent on weekdays. What happened today?" Mingming was angry and blamed, but Na Lanqing could hear the distress and reluctance. Where was she still uncomfortable? At that moment, Jin disappeared.
"It's been a while, why aren't you sleeping?"
"You are so sick, how can I sleep, I must have suffered from the cold a few nights ago, and told you to go to sleep, you will never listen to me."
"You don't know how wonderful it is to watch you fall asleep. This little illness is nothing. I want to watch you for the rest of my life." Nalan Qing's face was like white jade, but the cold caused his lips to look pale. Yun Jin helped her to the side of the bed, feeling extremely uncomfortable in her heart.
"Nalanqing, how can I let you do this?"
Nalan Qing smiled, charming and charming, "You have no virtue and incompetence, and I will do the same. What's more, you are virtuous, capable, talented, and beautiful. No matter what you do, I will be very happy in my heart."
The more she said that, the more uncomfortable Yunjin felt. She held Nalan Qing's arms slightly tighter, biting her lower lip, unable to say a word.
"Jiner." Looking at her expression, Nalan Qing knew that she was blaming herself again. "I told you to give you time, and this time can be indefinitely. You don't have to burden yourself, you know? Even if you don't accept me, you won't accept me." Relationship, I love you is my business, nothing to do with you...."
Before the words finished, Nalanqing felt her lips pressed tightly by Yun Jin, her pupils were slightly opened, and she didn't expect Yun Jin to kiss her suddenly.
It's just that she didn't know how sad Yun Jin felt when she heard what she said. It was as if she was holding a knife to gouge out her heart. The sprout of emotion had grown into a towering tree in her heart, and she didn't want to forcefully suppress it anymore. .
Na Lanqing gently moved her thin lips, and when her lips and teeth touched, she carefully opened Yun Jin's white teeth, as if slowly walking into her heart.Yun Jin didn't know where she got her strength, but by accident, she fell into the heat wave.Nalan Qing lay down slowly, hooked Yun Jin's waist, and leaned over himself.
At this moment, Yun Jin didn't want to think about anything, she just wanted to be with Nalan Qing.
