Yin Yue Ji

"God's will is always high and difficult to ask. When it comes to human conditions, it's hard to complain when you are old and sad."

The night sky is clear and the moon is bright.Outside the window, the wind moves the bamboo shadows; inside the room, the fragrance of tea and ink.

"You're recovering very quickly." Jieran finished writing a word, put down his pen, turned his head and said to Yin Ruo who was sitting at the long desk reading.

"Hmm." The answer was as concise as ever.

So you're leaving soon, right?Jie Ran thought to himself, but what he asked was another question: "Staying in the room all day reading and writing, is it boring for you?"

"Fortunately."

"That's right. That's good." Jie Ran picked up the pen again.

There was a long silence.Yin Ruo on the other end suddenly said, "Jie Ran."

"how?"

"You still...don't ask anything?"

"Why bother with this question...Didn't I say it before?" Jie Ran turned his head and looked at the other party: "I won't ask you what you don't want to say."

"...Mmm." Yinruo lowered her eyes.

"However..." Jie Ran put away his pen, "I'm a little curious about one thing."

The small round table was opened again.Only this time, instead of delicate snacks, there were several small dishes and two crystal clear jade cups.In the jade cup, the purple-red liquid seems to be gurgling and flowing under the lamplight, which is extremely beautiful.

"This is wine from the Western Regions. I don't think you will hate it." Jie Ran looked at the glass on the table and said.

"Hmm...just now what did you want to say that you were curious about?" Yin Ruo picked up the jade cup in front of her, but her gaze seemed to see far away through the layer of liquid.

"Heh." Jie Ran smiled, "Actually, it's not a big problem... I'm just curious, you are so strong, who can hurt you like that."

Yinruo put down the cup in his hand: "The other party is not alone." After a pause, "It wasn't caused by a face-to-face contest."

"Oh." Jie Ran took a sip of his wine and looked into the eyes of the person sitting across from him - "The person who fights alone...has never lost to you?"

"Hmph." Yin Ruo chuckled, "Almost." Picking up the wine glass, drank half of it in one breath, gently placed it on the table in front of him, and stared at it for a moment—"Except for two people."

"Oh?"

"The first one is my master."

"Hmm. And one more?"

"You...if you count."

"Ah?!" Jie Ran was taken aback, "Me?!"

The faintly curved lips curled into a slight arc—"Have you forgotten, Jieran? The scene of the first day we met... For so many years, I have never lost so embarrassingly..."

Yundie felt that she hadn't seen His Highness drinking with someone like this for a long time.

Although His Highness always had a gentle and modest smile... However, she felt that he had never been so happy in her impression.Laughing so joyously, so heartily, without any scruples...

That person who came in a strange way and once made her feel extremely dangerous and worried... What is the reason?What kind of past did you have with Your Highness?

However, to see His Highness so happy... these things don't really matter...

The breeze blows, the stars and the moon are deep.Occasionally, the reverberation of a few words can be heard floating in the room——

"Remember? Back in Lingnan..."

"...the broad embankment...the row of willows by the river..."

"That Mid-Autumn Festival, on the fishing boat, the tune you played..."

"...When we watched plum blossoms together, you said..."

"How could I know there are so many wind and rain... If I had known..."

"I knew it..."

If life is only a teenager.

Even knowing it, we can't go back.

The scars that have hurt each other deeply are always there.

The shattered jade flute.Even if you glue them together with your heart, it will no longer be possible to play the original tone.

but.

I still want to spend [-] games with my husband drunk and laughing, without suing Li Shang...

a few days later.

Jie Ran who came back from the palace pushed open the door of his room.

The interior has been refreshed.

The medicine bags and cans that have been thrown around randomly for many days are neatly sorted and placed.On the desk, wipe clean as new.The beds were neat and clean, and the screens were gathered together again and placed in a corner of the room.

It has been tidied up well.

Jie Ran walked in slowly.

Yun Die ran in in a panic - "Your Highness, that young master..."

"Well. Let's go?"

"Yes..." Yundie was a little surprised by the indifferent expression on his face - "I don't know when..."

"It's okay." Jie Ran sat down at the desk: "Did he leave anything behind?"

"No..." Yundie shook her head, "It just seems to have cleaned up the room before leaving..."

"Oh, like this."

After a moment of silence, Yun Die finally couldn't help asking: "Your Highness seems to have expected it a long time ago?"

"Yeah." The man in front of the desk raised his face, not knowing where to look - "He's going to leave after all." His tone was calm, without any fluctuation.

He's not the type to ask for help from others.If possible, no matter how difficult it is, I will try my best to solve it alone.

This time I had to live under the fence.Although I never did anything to embarrass him, he still felt awkward after all.

That rascal.

Jie Ran smiled and closed her eyes.

Although such a day is not bad.However, everyone has their own way to go after all.

In fact, I am not so used to always having someone by my side.

Back to normal.also good.

Just, maybe occasionally feel lonely, right?

A few days later, it was said that General Xiaoqi, who had been away for a month, finally returned.

Two months later, Song Taishi's home in Zhongshu Province was found with a large number of prohibited items indicating that he formed a party to support the army and attempted to plot rebellion.The sage made a decree, and all the families were copied and beheaded.

Probably, no one will think that there is any connection between these two things.
