Fingers of crossing

Yan Yilan recalled that night three years ago, when the Sui Kingdom returned home after a major defeat, the entire Yan Kingdom welcomed them, and it was very lively.

She stood on top of the city, staring silently at the brilliant lights below her. At the banquet, wine and wine were exchanged, and the princes and nobles raised their glasses to celebrate, and there was a scene of peace and prosperity everywhere.

There was a sound of restless footsteps behind her, and she stopped less than two meters away from her. She leaned on the city wall with her hands and looked down at the majestic palace, and said, "Are you here?"

At that time, Jiang Ningzui was only thirteen years old, and her immature face was full of apprehension and fear. Hearing Yan Yilan's words, her eyes were full of fear and hatred when she looked up at her back.

It's her, it's her!

Even if it was reduced to ashes, Jiang Ningzui would never forget Yan Yilan, the person who killed her sister with his own hands, and even forced the prince away for the throne regardless of his brotherhood.Nowadays, no one in the streets and alleys of Yan country knows her iron-blooded skills and cruel heart, and there are rumors and discussions about the battle for the throne for a while, but she doesn't have the slightest bit of guilt, and she can still sit in the world with peace of mind.

Jiang Ningzui's green eyes were full of hatred, but she suddenly saw Yan Yilan, who had been turning her back to her, turned around. step.

Seemingly completely oblivious to Jiang Ningzui's vigilance and fear, Yan Yilan turned a blind eye to the hatred in her eyes, just smiled slightly, her brows and eyes seemed to diverge from the eternal indifference, and said: "What's your name?"

"Ningzui..." Under the moonlight, Yan Yilan's gentle eyes were full of beauty, Jiang Ningzui was fascinated for a moment, and said in a daze, "My name is Jiang Ningzui."

"Ningzui." Jiang Ningzui never knew that her name could be called so beautifully. Hearing Yan Yilan read her name carefully from between her lips and teeth, she smiled and said, "It's a good name."

Jiang Ningzui looked at Yan Yilan blankly, the smile on Yan Yilan's face was fleeting, and then fell into a solitude again.She felt that the dignified woman in front of her was very lonely, even though Yan Yilan's loneliness was beyond her comprehension, she could still see it.

What an irony!Now that the Sui Kingdom has retreated in a big defeat, the border is guarded by her father, and no one dares to invade again. Yan Guo is slowly getting out of the haze of war, but she has a sleepy look, and a tender smile sweeps across her brows and eyes However, the stillness in her eyes was as eternal as she was born with, as if nothing in the world could make her happy.

There was a slight pain in her heart, she personally destroyed the two people she loved the most, she should hate her, she obviously had thousands of reasons to hate her, but at this moment Jiang Ningzui felt that Yan Yilan was very lonely, in her heart Must not be happy.

Between the entanglement of contradictions, Yan Yilan suddenly saw Yan Yilan stretching out her hand in her sight. The palm was bony and the palm lines were clear, but it happened that such a pair of slender and weak hands determined the power of life and death in the whole world. at the hands of which he lost his life.

"Come."

Hearing Yan Yilan's plain and simple words, Jiang Ningzui had doubts in her heart. She was almost not sure whether the doting and gentle woman in front of her was the cruel and cold-blooded eldest princess that people said. Would she kill her sister so mercilessly and expel the prince from the country?

While hesitating, Jiang Ningzui stretched out her hand involuntarily, and Yan Yilan led her to the edge of the city wall, motioning her to look at the entire palace, and her calm and calm voice rang in her ears.

"Ningzui, this Jiang family sacrificed their lives to protect the world. From now on, no matter whether it is ups and downs or honors or disgraces, I want you to witness with me."

There was the faint sound of palace music in the night sky, submerged in the towering city walls, Yan Yilan regained consciousness from her memories, and then looked at the calm and indifferent Jiang Ningzui in front of her, realizing that time was passing quietly, unconsciously Suddenly, that immature intoxication has long since disappeared.

The expression in Yan Yilan's eyes was as unreal as if she was separated by clouds and mist. Jiang Ningzui couldn't figure out what she was thinking at this moment. Although she was still calm on the surface, she didn't know what was going on in her heart.

After saying that temptation, there was no response, which would be more nerve-wracking than Yan Yilan's silence.

The sight that drifted away from her mind fell back on Jiang Ningzui, Yan Yilan smiled very lightly, her voice was erratic and elusive: "Is it important to be the princess or not?"

Jiang Ningzui looked at Yan Yilan with a complicated expression, frowned and said, "But, I..."

"Ningzui, what are you struggling with?" Yan Yilan took two steps towards Jiang Ningzui, and under the faint moonlight on the city, that seductive face gradually became clear. "You are you, whether it was before or now, I only believe in what I see."

Jiang Ningzui's heart trembled, Yan Yilan's words seemed so simple that she didn't need to spend much effort to understand them, but there was an indescribable meaning behind them.Looking at Yan Yilan, she felt that there was a sudden wave of waves in the calm lake of her heart, and it was difficult to return to tranquility.

"Don't understand?" Jiang Ningzui has never seen such a dazed Jiang Ningzui before, she couldn't help being a little funny for a moment, she stretched out her hand and raised Jiang Ningzui's chin in a gimmick, and approached him, and the two of them were close to the tip of their noses for a while touch distance. "At the beginning, it was a last resort to meddle with you, but no one forced me that night in front of the ancestral temple." Everything was just a fulfillment of the uncontrollable impulse in my heart.

The hand that was raised in the air and wanted to pat Yan Yilan away suddenly stopped, Jiang Ningzui understood what she said, her eyes fell on Yan Yilan's face with a smirk indifferently, her chest was suffocated for a long time Slowly exhale, even so, the chest is still full of condensation, blocked.The mind that had never been chaotic, collapsed bit by bit until it became chaotic.

This is probably the most cryptic confession Jiang Ningzui has ever heard in her life, but it is also the most unforgettable.She thought that Yan Yilan's words tonight would probably be engraved in her heart, and she would spend her whole life remembering them.

The self-confident indifference was beaten to pieces at this time, Jiang Ningzui silently pushed away Yan Yilan's hand that was pinching her chin, and looked away calmly, not looking directly at Yan Yilan who was close at hand. "The eldest princess is still so dishonest."

Yan Yilan's smile became more charming, she withdrew her hand, and sat back in front of the table and chairs placed behind her, filled a glass of wine on her own, and drank it down in one gulp facing the bright and bright moon in the sky.

Jiang Ningzui followed, and said: "I heard from Bi Yuan that every year on this day, you will return home drunk at the city gate."

Under the gate of the city, there was a feast of singing and singing, and there were a lot of wine and wine. It was a bustling and bustling scene. Jiang Ningzui stood on a high place and looked at it quietly, feeling more and more that the higher she stood, the more out of place she was.This is the case when standing at a high place, so it must be the same for people who are in high positions.

Thinking about it, Jiang Ningzui turned her head to look at Yan Yilan, a pain hit her heart for no reason.

"Most people are like this. No matter how much you remember things that have nothing to do with you at the time, you can't escape the fate of being forgotten in the end." Yan Yilan said, pouring another glass of wine, and pouring it down on the white ground with her backhand, "So They have all forgotten the tens of thousands of people who gave their lives for today's peaceful scene three years ago."

Jiang Ningzui followed Yan Yilan's movements and lowered her gaze, looking at the wine soaking into the ground, she remained silent.In her spare time, she would often look through the historical records of the Yan Kingdom. For the battle between Yan and Sui Dynasty, there were detailed records in the historical books. There were countless casualties in that battle. King Yan and the princess's sister were also clearly listed in it.Perhaps these dead people have already disappeared from people's sight, and it is difficult to find them except for the pen and ink records in historical books, but fortunately, there are still people who remember them for the world.

Picking up the jug, Jiang Ningzui raised her head and took a sip of the wine, then her cold eyebrows fell on Yan Yilan's face, and she smiled slightly: "I'll drink this glass of wine with you." The battle that I have never participated in starts today, and I will accompany you to pay homage.

I won't leave you alone any longer.I swear.

Yan Yilan was slightly taken aback, but before she made a statement, Jiang Ningzui had already taken a few sips of strong alcohol. She remembered Jiang Ningzui's drunkenness not long ago, and it was funny: "Then you drank until you passed out, and someone lifted you up." Back to Fengyi Palace?"

The spirits slid all the way into her stomach, Jiang Ningzui's usually cold eyes and brows were stained with a little drunkenness, she looked extraordinarily glamorous and compelling. "If the eldest princess is unwilling, she can throw me on the tower."

Yan Yilan laughed mischievously: "How can there be a princess who can be as casual and presumptuous as you."

"Eldest Princess, don't forget." Jiang Ningzui glanced at Yan Yilan coldly, her tone was still cool, "In the Qiluan Hall half a month ago, it was also the Eldest Princess who told me not to be the Crown Princess anymore."

Just after taking a sip of wine, Jiang Ningzui's words caused Yan Yilan to cough lightly, but she was not annoyed, she just glanced at Jiang Ningzui with a smirk, her face was like the wind passing through the clouds, and the haze in her eyebrows and eyes gradually faded.

Drunk, Jiang Ningzui suddenly smelled the fragrance of flowers, the fragrance was elegant and pleasant, her vague consciousness was slightly cleared, she stood up following the fragrance, walked to the edge of the city wall, looked down at the edge of the city gate, a tree The stamens bloom against the wind, swaying quietly in the night wind.

Jiang Ningzui had never seen such a coquettish flower, she was curious and took a few extra glances unconsciously.

"This is Mosang flower, and the flowering period is only one night." Sensing Jiang Ningzui's thoughts, Yan Yilan propped her head, smiled lazily and charmingly, and said: "It is said that Queen Yan, the wife of the first King Yan, She is virtuous, intelligent, and good at strategy. When King Yan conquered the north and south, he was able to establish the Yan Kingdom in just ten years. Queen Yan contributed a lot. After King Yan ascended the throne, he intended to make her a queen, but unfortunately, she thought about her humble status, and repeatedly Yan Wang declined the kindness. Yan Wang was helpless. Later, he knew that Queen Yan loved Mosang flowers, so he spent three years planting Mosang flowers for Queen Yan with his own hands. Empress Yan was so moved that she finally nodded and agreed to be the queen. The next day , King Yan announced it to the world and made her a queen, and this past event has since become a good story for future generations to tell."

Jiang Ningzui was already quite drunk, but now she couldn't help but sigh when she heard this story. She looked at the Mosang flowers that stood one after another indifferently, and said with a sigh: "It is said that the king is ruthless, but it is rare for him to return the favor." It’s rare to have such a temperament.”

As she spoke, she turned and sat back on the chair, leaning her elbows on the table to support her already weak body.Maybe it was because of her drunkenness, her expression was no longer the indifference of the past, but a bit lazy and charming, and her words and deeds were full of drunkenness.

At this time, fireworks were suddenly set off in the sky, and the banquet downstairs must have come to an end. Looking up at the fireworks bursting into the dark blue night sky, even the silent city gate was a little bustling.Yan Yilan turned her head in Jiang Ningzui's direction, and said, "Ningzui, there are fireworks."

After finishing the words, I saw Jiang Ningzui already lying on the table, half of her face was covered in the shadow, and half of her face was reflected in the colorful fireworks above her head, showing a different kind of vitality and brilliance.

Reluctantly and amusedly pursing her bright red lips, Yan Yilan showed a doting smile on her always aloof and coquettish face. She leaned over and reached out her hand to tuck the hair that fell off her face for Jiang Ningzui. Suddenly, she saw Jiang Ningzui After being touched, he instinctively opened his misty eyes.

Just about to tease her a few words, before Yan Yilan could speak, Jiang Ningzui opened and closed her lips, before she spoke.

The sound of fireworks rumbled in her ears, and Yan Yilan had to listen carefully with the help of Jiang Ningzui's lips, in order to understand her soft drunken words.

"If someone is willing to plant ten li Mosang for me, I will marry her too."

The fireworks above her head were still going on, but Jiang Ningzui's words had already been finished, and the usual banter and charm in Yan Yilan's eyes disappeared, leaving only a deep one.She looked at Jiang Ningzui without blinking, and it took a long time to look away, smiling beautifully.

"it is good."
