Chapter 13: Misfortune

The candle shadow fluttered, and his silhouette was reflected on the bedside, suddenly dim.
I reluctantly turned my face away, didn't look at him, and dared not struggle any more, and let him give me the medicine himself.
It was almost late at night, and the Luo account was drooping, the bright candle was about to run out, and I was alone in the room with him alone. Under such circumstances, I just look like this disheveled clothes, and even touch his skin ... Even if it has been the name of a couple for three years, I still can't stop the tension and confusion at this moment, my fingers secretly twisted the corner of the captivity.
Xiao Xun said nothing, and looked at me for a while, and the look that seemed to smile more and more made my heart panic, and it seemed to be burning behind my ears.
"Come down and walk," he said involuntarily, picking me up from the bed.
With his feet on the ground, he felt weak and weak, and had to hold his arm.
"You've been lying down for too long." Xiao Yan smiled. "Since the internal injuries are already good, you can move around a bit on weekdays. It's useless to lie down."
I looked up at him and felt fresh and surprised. Since I was young, because of my frailty, I had a slight cold and fever. People around me were always careful, and he called me to rest quietly. No one was as casual as he was, but it was very temperamental to me.
He helped me to the window, pushed the long window straight, and the night breeze poured in, bringing the fresh smell of the earth and the fragrant grass.
I flinched, and although I felt cold, I took a deep breath greedily, and I never felt such a fresh evening wind for a long time.
There was a sudden warmth on my shoulders, but I saw Xiao Yan taking off his wind chimes and wrapping me tightly.
I froze, the whole man fell into his arms, wrapped in a thick wind, surrounded by his unique and strong masculinity.
I never knew that the breath of a man would be like this ... the indistinguishable taste, warm and full of masculinity, reminded me of the hot sun at noon, reminded me of leather and iron, and thought of thousands of miles of sand.
I remember the taste of my elder brother and my son-in-law. My elder brother prefers Du Yuan, and my son-in-law loves Mulan alone. Between them, there is always a faint scent. Beijing's central wealthy homes all have spices from the Western Regions, and there are beautiful young girls and women's specialty perfumers. Even an alien man like He Lanzhen has an aroma of incense on his clothes.
Only Xiao Yan did not. In this person, I could not see the slightest softness, everything was strong, sharp and restrained.
Moon white, clear and quiet.
I seemed to hear the sound of my heart pounding, but it was a little sloppy.
"I'm not cold." I summoned the courage to speak, trying to break free from his arms, breaking the panic heartbeat of this moment.
He glanced down at me without seeing.
"Why don't you ask me where I've been these days?" He seemed to smile.
Only then did he see the wind and dust coming in, and he was wearing armor and tired, and I had guessed that he was returning from a long journey.
This is probably why he hasn't come to see me for days.
But if he had the intention to let me know, he could have informed in advance, and now he asked me, is it a kind of temptation?
I looked back coldly, "Of course, Lord Wang is busy with military affairs, why should I ask him where I am going?"
Xiao Xun pulled his lips and said, "I don't like women who talk right and wrong."
"Is it?" I smiled, looked up slightly, and Ren Yefeng blew on his face. "I thought that most men who think of themselves as extraordinary, like women who have bad opinions."
He hesitated, and then laughed loudly, hearty laughter echoed in the silent night.
I also smiled, looked up at him quietly, my heart was inexplicable.
Looking at his jaw slightly revealing the blue Hu Hu, he felt more and more relaxed.
Even aside from his power and fame, aside from the dazzling light that has been placed on him, he is also an excellent man in terms of manners.
The so-called heroic beauty was originally not a romantic made by literati.
If there was no marriage, then if we first met him today, if we did not know the son ... Will we meet at first sight and complete this episode of heroic beauty?
However, things have changed, and this marriage has not been fulfilled from the beginning.
The beauty of this beautiful day makes me reluctant to break it. Even if it only takes a moment, it is good.
I closed my lips tightly, and those who had gone back and forth hundreds of times in my heart could not export.
What would happen if we didn't mention the past and everything started from this moment?
The night breeze became colder.
Xiao Yan went to the window, closed the long window, and stood back to me, seemingly indifferently, "In these two days, I went to a deserted village on the border."
I sat down next to the case, and with a little thought under my heart, I knew something.
"Is going to meet a special enemy?" I frowned at him.
Xiao Yan turned and looked at me with a smile, "What is a special enemy?"
I lowered my eyes and wondered if I should let him know my thoughts. After a moment of stunning, I still spoke slowly. "Sometimes the enemy can become an ally, and a friend can become an enemy."
"Yes." Xiao Yan smiled, admired with words, "This man is indeed my enemy."
He really went to see Hu Lan. No wonder he disappeared for a few days. People in the Wangfu only knew that he was patrolling the military, and no one knew where he was. The coach will personally meet the enemy chief, and spreading it out is a major crime of treason against the enemy. Naturally, his whereabouts cannot be leaked.
I frowned and said, "Xu Xie is dead, He Lan Fuxi, once the evidence of the crime is conclusive, why go there?"
He didn't answer, and his eyes were still unpredictable, with a few surprises.
However, I really don't understand. Even if Prince Hulan had another important evidence in his hands, he only needed a secret letter to send someone to convey it. Why take such risks and see the Turk Prince himself.
Or does he have other calculations?
"You guessed half right, but you guessed the wrong person." Xiao Yan smiled. "This particular enemy is not Hulan."
I froze, but listened to him indifferently, "Hulan is a man who is brave and good at fighting. He is a rare adversary on the battlefield. Unfortunately, he has more than bravery and lacks opportunities. He is far from being an opponent of He Lanzhen."
The candlelight shone on Xiao Yan's side, his lips were thin, with a faint smile. "If it wasn't for the letter sent by this stupid person, it would have misrepresented the false impression of He Lanzhen and delayed my deployment. Into He Lanzheng. "
He sneered, "Fighting with He Lanzhen in the future, I'm afraid he will die badly."
I stood up in amazement, "You mean, He Lanzhen is alive?"
Xiao Zheng looked at me side by side, his eyes flashed sharply, but he didn't smile.
"You went to see He Lanzhen!" I was so horrified that the man broke his wrist and fell to the cliff without dying, it's all right; what really shocked me was that instead of sending someone to chase and kill, Xiao Yan saw it in private. people.
Facing his unfathomable eyes, I just felt chills all over my body.
"I not only met him, but also sent my confidante to him back to Turkic, and repulsed Kulan's chase." Xiao Yan's smile was cold and frosty, and he slowly said, "Go here to see all his creations. He can return to King City and live up to my hard work. "
I lowered my head, and my mind flashed, yes ... the past and the past were full of thoughts, and my thoughts were bright and clear.
He originally worked with Prince Hulan to get rid of He Lanzhen, and even to eliminate Xu Yi ’s party. Now that he was lucky, and Xu Xu was gone, he changed his mind. Instead of killing He Lanzhen, he helped him return to Turkic. . With He Lanzheng's temperament, he is bound to hate Hu Lan, and he will add new revenge to the throne battle. In this regard, the two tigers will fight, and Turkic will fall into chaos.
For a moment, my heart shook, and I went back to the Chaoyang Gate that year, and saw the scene of the Yi army for the first time.
At that time, I only felt his magnificence and courage, and since then, the name of Xiaozhang Wang Yuzhang has been a legend in my mind.
I had to marry him and stayed alone for three years. I only knew that I had married a hard-core hero and knew nothing about him.
Afterwards, Ning Shuo reunited, shocked by life and death, and witnessed his killing of his enemies with his own eyes, only to know that he was so famous.
By this time, he was standing in front of me, talking lightly, like a chat between husband and wife. However, between the waves, the situation has been stirred up and down, and this huge and far-reaching chess game has been set up ... I'm afraid that the frontiers of the dynasty, the Turkic court, and the Limins of the two countries have all been put into this chess game. I don't know how many people will be here change.
A hero can't do it all.
I suddenly felt the awakening of a big dream.
The person standing in front of me at this moment is no longer just a hero on the frontier, but a commander-in-chief who is turning over the clouds, covering his hands with the rain, and holding the right to death and killing. There was an illusion faintly at the bottom of his heart, and it seemed that he would be foreseen to look at the world.
This sudden thought made me feel shocked and uneasy.
"Heroes are like this ..." I sigh sincerely, I want to praise this far-reaching strategy.
Xiao Yan laughed without saying a word, silently lost his hand, but just looked at me deeply, and did not hide the excitement in his eyes.
For a long while, he slowly said, "A girl in a boudoir has this insight."
I have always been accustomed to the words of Yimei, and for the first time I heard the words of appreciation from his mouth, I was secretly pleased.
However, thinking about He Lanzhen's vicious eyes, I couldn't help but sigh, "That man hates you for going into the bones and going back to the tiger. I don't know what vicious ways he will come up with to harm you in the future."
Xiao Yan smiled lightly, "Although it is hard to meet a confidant, it is not a pleasure to have a capable opponent."
As soon as I stayed, I smiled and nodded.
The so-called celebrities of the world have seen so many people, and no one has ever let me be so upset. Once upon a time, my elder brother always said that I was arrogant and had no one in my eyes. However, he didn't know-it wasn't my arrogance, but I had never met someone who was savvy enough to convince me.
Now, I met.
Looking down from head to toe, Xiao Xun did not know when he came to the front, reached out and raised my face.
"Are you afraid He Lanzhen is not good for me?" He smiled, but his eyes were burning.
I suffocated suddenly, as if I was burned in my heart, and hurriedly turned away from his hand.
It was clearly the weather in May, but there was an inexplicable fever, and I just felt that the room was suffocating.
"Do you want to drink tea?"
Under the embarrassment, I did not know how to hide my confusion, and answered such a question without asking.
By getting up to get the tea cup, he turned his back and still felt his scorching eyes.
I calmed down, took the cup, and silently poured tea into the cup. However, my heart beating suddenly made my wrists tremble slightly ... This is what happened, I have never been in a state of restlessness ever since.
Hesitant, hands clenched.
He held my hand from behind him, only to realize that the tea in the cup was already full, but I was still at a loss, and poured the tea straight into the cup.
He smiled and didn't speak, just took the teapot in my hand, took another cup, and poured the tea again.
I was embarrassed, but he poured the tea away and passed it with a smile.
"I'd better wait for the princess." He murmured softly and smiled warmly.
Even if I am dull again, this man and woman are always understand.
The cup of tea had been delivered to him, and it was firmly in his hand, but I did not reach out to pick it up.
I looked up at him quietly, trying to tell whether the feeling in his eyes was true or false.
The eyes were opposite, and there was a moment of silence.
His eyes were deep, but the scorching light faded, "You still don't want to forgive?"
"What do you forgive?" I looked directly into his eyes and tried to say flatly, "What do you have that I need to forgive?"
I thought that if he refused to explain, I would never ask.
That big wedding night was an unforgettable shame in my life.
The candle shadow swayed and reflected on Xiao Yan's face, making his look very clear.
He frowned, his lips closed tightly as a line, and he didn't seem to know how to speak. Half a moment later, he apologized, "There was an emergency that day, I had to ..."
As a last resort, to this day, he still uses this poor excuse to perfunctory.
I raised my eyes indignantly, rudely, "Even if Jizhou falls behind and waits for your help to fight against the rebellion, it may not be an hour and a half."
"Jizhou fell?" Huo Ran Xiao Xiao turned his head, his eyes flashed with the wrong color, and he seemed to hear something very incredible.
I laughed angrily, "Why, Lord Wang no longer remember?"
Xiao Kun was silent and expressionless, and the faintness of the faintness disappeared with no trace.
"Zuo Xiang ... Lord Father-in-law only said that Jizhou had fallen, and didn't tell you anything else?" He asked Shen Sheng.
"What does Wang mean?" My heart beat, and I watched him.
His eyebrows were tightened, his eyes were startling, "Since then, Zuo Xiang has always said so?"
These words, together with his look, made my heart cold.
I looked up and stared at him calmly, "Shu Wang is foolish, please explain to the Lord."
The room suddenly fell into deadlock.
I stared at him, no one spoke, but I could feel his dignity.
A sudden whistle of the candle wick burst out a spark, which suddenly reminded me of the night when the red candle was burning.
A heavy sorrow came from my heart, and it was overwhelming me.
Xiao Yan looked at me deeply, his eyes were unpredictable, "Do you really want to hear me understand?"
"Yes." I pursed my lips and stared at him.
He slowly said, "Very good, no matter how difficult it is, you have to bear it yourself."
I bit my lip and nodded.
He carried his hands to the window and stood with his back to me, slowly saying, "On the day of the big wedding, if there is no hand of an adult on the left, how can I mobilize the Gyeonggi Guards controlled by Wang's hand and leave the city overnight?"
I felt like I was slammed hard, and my heart tightened suddenly.
"Keep talking." I straightened my back, staring at the candlelight in front of me.
His voice was gentle, and he could not distinguish between mood and anger, as if telling a story of someone else--
"The emperor is dissatisfied with the prince's inferiority, the foreign relatives have the autonomy, and they have long been willing to save. The prince relied on the Wang's situation. If he wanted to save, he must abandon the foreign relatives. In these years, the queen and your father have controlled half of the government, but only the right The relatives Wen Zongshen and the relatives of the royal family resisted foreign affairs and secretly supported the emperor and the reserve. The two factions have been stalemate, and they have been fighting each other towards the family of the gates of the country. The strength of the martial arts. When I settled the border and took over the 400,000 army, the court began to fear. The rightist Wen Zong cautiously took away the military power of the warriors, and feared to shake the frontier, and did not dare to rush. He did not know, the queen and the left, Already measured. "
He paused, but I understood what he meant.
As if a bucket of ice and snow poured down from the top of the head, it was cold all of a sudden-at that time, they had already thought of a marriage plan.
No wonder my aunt has always opposed my relationship with my son-in-law. No wonder my father always refuses those who propose to him. Among them are the Wang family in Beijing, and even the Houmen family, which is as famous as the Wang family. At that time, the mother once sighed, "I'm afraid that in your father's eyes, no one except the prince deserves his pearl."
At that time, I thought so. But I do n’t know. The father ’s favorite bed in the early morning was not a child with a distinguished status. Even if the child was to take office in the future, his father would not be satisfied with the name of a country chief. Her aunt would not tolerate others taking her son's throne.
The Wangs need to have more power. In addition to the chapel and palace, they also need support from the army.
From the beginning, they have fancyed Xiao Xiao, and Xiao Yue has fancyed Wang.
I actually wanted to laugh, while smiling, looking at Xiao Yan, "It is your idea or the Queen's advice to let the emperor give you a marriage?"
"It's me." Xiao Yan turned, facing my questioning gaze, and apologized deeply in his eyes. "I once served the decree, and saw the Queen and the Left ..."
He doesn't have to finish, I already know.
I smile, I can only smile, nothing else can support the remaining pride.
"So what was the day of the big wedding?" I slowly spoke, saying every word, trying to keep my voice from shaking.
Xiao Yanmei looked at me with guilt and intolerance, and his eyes lingered on my face for a long time.
I looked up, fixed him stubbornly, and waited for him to continue.
"I settled the achievements of southern Xinjiang, and asked the queen to marry the daughter of Wang's family. The queen promised her, but the emperor was helpless, and the marriage was granted by the court. The rightist party was restless and conspired with the emperor. The secret tune Chang Ning rushed to Ningshuo, the emperor's secret decree, and took over the military power. When my wedding was completed, the decree was immediately lowered, and I became a prince, nominally being promoted to the rank of three men. We are stuck in the capital. The emperor assisted in this matter, and the action was hidden and swift. It was the day of the big wedding when I and the left knew about it. We were determined to take advantage of Jizhou ’s fall, and dispatched the forbidden army, and opened the city overnight to leave Beijing. Crime, God's will help me, Changning was not able to defend the city, and I was slashed by military law. At this point, I tried to turn the tide and made the emperor's plan of power cut. Corresponds to the inside and outside of the left, which makes the emperor Mok helpless. "
Xiao Yan's remarks were very fast, and he only chose to pass through the Tao. It seemed that he could not bear to elaborate one by one.
I was a little hesitant for a moment, and raised my eyes, "All causes, is that so?"
"Yes." He looked at me deeply, full of pity and guilt, but only answered this word.
I looked down at every word of him and wanted to find a loophole to refute him and prove that it was all false.
But it was useless, instead of finding loopholes, it became clearer and clearer. Many of the forgotten details, at this time, thought back, and actually coincided with his words. Even some things, I had secretly questioned that year ... But at that time, I would never have thought that it all came from my close family.
I don't, and dare not think so.
How could my father and aunt deceive me—deceive me, use me, and still conceal me, and push all the blame on Xiao Yan, so that I will always sink into loneliness and resentment, just like another aunt, There are no more loved ones around, and they can only remain attached to the family forever and be loyal to the family until they dedicate their lives to the family.
However, it is them, but it is them.
Others can lie to me, but I can no longer lie to myself.
Everything is clear and can't be more thorough.
In May, I was so cold and so cold that I was immersed in ice water.
"Wang Ye." I heard Xiao Ye's voice, and he heard my name.
I looked up at him blankly, watched him come to me, embraced my shoulders, and surrounded me gently.
His arms were warm, like his voice, full of pity, "You are shaking."
"I didn't!" I looked up, and the stubbornness that burst from my heart made me suddenly burst out of his arms. "Who said that I was shaking, I didn't ... don't touch me!"
I feel pain, my whole body is hurting, I can't tolerate anyone touching me again.
"You, go out." I braced the table, stood still, and couldn't help shaking my body.
He looked at me without a word, and his guilty and guilty eyes grew more and more like a knife on me.
I turned my head, no longer looked at him, and said, "I'm fine, let me rest alone."
He didn't say a word, and it took him a long time to hear him turn away, and footsteps came to the door.
I couldn't support it any more, and fell flat before the case, burying my face in my palm.
There was nothing in my head, only tears rolled down.
I can't remember anything, I can't tell you, I can only let tears swell.
The body suddenly warmed, and I looked back, forgetting to wipe away the tears.
Xiao Yan leaned over and put the big dart on my shoulder, only whispered, "I'm outside."
Watching him turn away, I suddenly panicked, I felt lonely.
"Xiao Yan ..." I called him dumbly, and the tears rolled down again as he turned around.
He stepped forward and embraced me.
"It's all gone." He stroked my hair and said, "Those things have passed."
He held me so tightly that he pressed his arm to the wound.
I held back the pain and said nothing, lest I would lose this warm embrace.
His chin touched my cheek, and a slight stubble pinched me, tingling and calm.
"Although it is over, you have to face it after all, you can't hide under the wings of the family all your life." He stared at my eyes, saying, "From now on, you are my princess and you are with me I don't allow you to be cowardly, women who have gone to this life! "
