Fingers of crossing

Yang Xuanlin's shout almost didn't scare Qiyue's soul out.

Although she has always been a restless master, it does not mean that she has the guts not to listen to Yang Xuanlin.The eldest brother is like a father, and besides, he is the most respected emperor brother, Qiyue can only stick out her tongue, and reluctantly retreats to her seat following Yang Xuanlin's words.

"Qiyue, come to this palace."

Qiyue was looking unhappy, when suddenly she heard Yan Yilan from above the main hall, smiling carelessly, and blinking at her, her voice sounded loose and seductive.

Following Yan Yilan's words, Qiyue grew up in the palace after all, so she naturally knew the rules. She first bowed to Queen Ning, then turned and walked in front of Yan Yilan. Chongyang Xuanlin made a grimace to show her dissatisfaction.

"Let me take a look." Yan Yilan sat up slightly, her phoenix eyes carefully scanned Qiyue's still childish face, stretched out her hands to pinch Qiyue's chubby cheeks, and said with a smile: "Do you want to see?" Do you want to be a big-faced princess?"

Obviously just now she swore in front of Jiang Ningzui without shame, but at this moment, facing Yan Yilan's eyes that seemed to be able to see everything, she was actually a little shy.Scratching her head with her fingertips embarrassingly, Qiyue smiled cutely, and kept her eyes on Yan Junyao's direction, and stammered with a blushing face: "That... um... um..."

"Okay."

Qiyue faltered and couldn't answer, but she didn't want Yan Yilan to smile leisurely. She propped her chin with one hand and looked at Qiyue's blushing face with the other hand, and said in a leisurely way: "If the prince Yun Ken, I have no objection."

"real?!"

Qiyue was so startled that she almost didn't jump up, her hands kept shaking Yan Yilan's arm, she was overjoyed.

"real."

Completely ignoring the feelings of the rest of the people present, Yan Yilan let Qiyue rely on her and refused to let go, and nodded with a charming smile.As she spoke, she turned her head and glanced at Empress Ning who was hesitating to speak, and smiled charmingly. "The queen mother must have no objection."

Empress Ning frowned first, she wanted to glare at Yan Yilan, but because of Yang Xuanlin's presence, she just cursed secretly in her heart, "Damn girl", and gave Yan Yilan a cold look, prejudiced against her Smiling brightly, he didn't take his dissatisfaction into his eyes at all.Being blocked by Yan Yilan's anger, Empress Ning couldn't get over it for a long time.

She should have known her daughter's domineering nature, and Yan Yilan must have resented the fact that Empress Ning forced Jiang Ning to be drunk in the palace before, so she came up with this strategy and used it to tell Empress Ning that even if it was her , and have no right to move her people.

Empress Ning was so angry, and Yan Junyao was also uncomfortable. Hearing that his sister had sold herself like this, Yan Junyao almost spit out his throat with a sip of wine, thinking that his sister would actually put such a hot hand Throwing the yam into his hand, he quickly put down the wine glass, and looked at Yan Yilan anxiously, with an angry expression on his face that dared not speak.

Yang Xuanlin was aware of Yan Yilan's temperament, so he could only turn to warn and look at Qiyue sternly, but unfortunately, Qiyue was already immersed in the joy of being the princess of Dayan, so he didn't care whether his brother agreed or not. .

Among them, Jiang Ningzui can be considered calm and composed, she just watched this farce unfold and end indifferently, she has long been familiar with Yan Yilan's bad temper, so she is stingy to give even a little unexpected expression .She raised her head and saw that Yan Lingge who was sitting across from him also had a look of helplessness. The eyes of the two collided unexpectedly, and they were both speechless for a while.

After the banquet, everyone had their own thoughts in their hearts. It was obviously a welcome banquet, but in the end it seemed like a silent farce.

Seeing that the banquet was coming to an end, Jiang Ningzui had been kneeling for a long time, and she inevitably felt that her knees were sore and weak. She couldn't help straightening her body, trying to relieve the pressure on her knees.

"The king of Beiyang has come all the way, so he must be tired too." Just as impatience appeared on Jiang Ningzui's face, she heard Yan Yilan's voice in her ears. She followed the sound and raised her head, seeing Yan Yilan's gaze from A moment passed across her face. "After all, today is just a family banquet. Just enjoy yourself. After dinner and wine, you don't have to stick to etiquette."

Yan Lingge smiled and nodded when he heard this, and said, "Sister is right. The future will be long, so don't rush to say anything."

"It's all gone." Yan Yilan got up and brushed her crumpled palace clothes, and said, "I'm going to the paddock tomorrow morning, and I'd better go back to the palace to rest early tonight." As she said that, Yan Yilan's voice paused , with a playful light in his eyes, he looked at Yang Xuanlin with a smile, "What does King Beiyang think?"

"Just do what you want." Yang Xuanlin said, then changed the subject and said: "Fengyi, the wind is clear and the moon is bright tonight, stay and enjoy the moon with the lonely king."

Although Yang Xuanlin's words sounded like a simple order, but after careful recollection, you can taste the deep gentle smile in it.It was obviously a domineering order, but it didn't make people feel displeased. His demeanor made what he said so graceful, without any bluntness or disrespect.

Jiang Ningzui had already got up and was about to leave at this time. Hearing what King Beiyang said, her figure paused after bowing and retreating, her slightly drooping face was sunk in the darkness, and her true expression could not be seen.

He called her Fengyi.

In the world, except for Empress Ning, Yang Xuanlin is the only one who dares to call her title like this.

Sometimes, the title is really a wonderful thing.It seems that just by Yang Xuanlin's unusual address to Yan Yilan, you can vaguely hear all kinds of intimacy between them, and Jiang Ningzui heard it for the first time, she would only listen to such a simple title , I can feel the suffocation in the heart, and I can't calm down for a long time.

Before Yan Yilan could reply, Jiang Ningzui had already turned around and walked out of the Hanliang Palace. The figure who left without hesitation seemed to be unwilling to hear Yan Yilan's answer, or she seemed to be completely aware of everything in front of her. don't care anymore.But only Jiang Ningzui knew how flustered her footsteps were at the moment she turned around, and she was almost running away.

All the way out of the Hanliang Hall, the long corridor seemed to be so deep and endless, the scorching wind of summer night was blowing in front of her face, and the suffocation in her heart was getting deeper and deeper.

Back at Zhaoling Hall, Jiang Ningzui stopped in her tracks. She suddenly raised her head and looked at the magnolia trees in the yard swaying in the wind, and the pure white magnolia stamens fell like falling flowers, falling on her eyebrows. horn hair tip.

Jiang Ningzui stood silently under the tree, smelling the elegant fragrance of magnolia on the tip of her nose, recalling the night not long ago, when the moon above her head was as bright and clear as today, Yan Yilan smiled and picked a magnolia flower for her, slender The appearance of the flower handle lightly held by the fingertips is particularly charming, and the beauty is breathtaking.

Memories are the most disturbing.

Jiang Ningzui pursed her lips indifferently. She walked into the hall with the moonlight on her back, and looked down to see a figure approaching her step by step. In the light of the moon, that figure gradually covered her, like a giant net covering the sky and covering the earth. , slowly covering her.

"Aren't you tired? Why don't you go to the palace to rest?" Yan Yilan reached out to brush the magnolia flowers from Jiang Ningzui's hair, and smiled softly and deeply with raised eyebrows.

Hearing Yan Yilan's voice suddenly, Jiang Ningzui instinctively took half a step back, she turned around to look at Yan Yilan with coquettish but soft brows under the moon, and frowned unconsciously. "The king of Beiyang should be in a hurry."

Seeing Jiang Ningzui backing away, Yan Yilan no longer tried to get closer. When she heard this, she just smiled and said, "I prefer to drink with you under the moon than enjoying the moon with King Beiyang."

"I am not interested."

Jiang Ningzui said, without looking at Yan Yilan again, turned around and walked into Zhaoling Hall.Stepping up the steps, Jiang Ningzui was just about to push open the palace door with both hands, but she remembered something, she turned her head and said, "I promise to finish this last scene for you, as a condition, after King Beiyang leaves , I have one request."

Jiang Ningzui's sarcastic remarks made Yan Yilan's heart feel bitter. Now that she heard her say that, Yan Yilan instinctively followed the reputation, but what she saw was still Jiang Ningzui's indifferent eyes.

"what?"

The hand that was on the door slowly tightened, Jiang Ningzui slightly lowered her eyebrows, and said every word decisively and calmly. "Let me out of the palace."

These four words, like the sharpest knife in the world, cut off all the grievances and entanglements between them, and cut and shredded their mutual hearts along the way.

Jiang Ningzui's words made Yan Yilan more painful than all her indifferent expressions, she frowned suddenly, her black eyebrows were deeply locked, seeing Jiang Ningzui's eyes were helpless and blurred .

"Okay." I don't know how long this was silent, after the deadly stalemate, Yan Yilan slowly let go, but her voice was hoarse and almost fragmented. "It's just that you are still the crown princess after all, even if you want to leave the palace, it will take some time and a reason. Besides, everything outside the palace also needs time to make arrangements."

In fact, these are all reasons.

These are just excuses for me to cover up my selfishness.As Yan Yilan thought about it, a bitter smile slowly filled her face.You see, I am so despicable, even if I promised to let you go, I still can't be so frank.But apart from doing this, what reason can I have to keep you by my side, even if all I see is your indifferent face, even if every day we spend together will be a farewell, I can't order myself to let you go immediately Go, let you leave my side.

It's just that you don't need to know about my delusions anymore.

Ningzui, as I said, if you hate me, that's fine too.How can a person like me deserve your sincere treatment?

"I see."

Feeling empty and pained, Jiang Ningzui concealed the boiling feeling in her heart, stretched out her hand and pushed open the hall door, and walked into Zhaoling Hall.

She didn't understand, since everything was her choice, why Yan Yilan agreed, but she felt even more empty in her heart.It seemed as if something had been dug out of her heart, but she knew that maybe the name written all over the bloody wound was nothing more than Yan Yilan's name.

Thinking, Jiang Ningzui stretched out her hand to close the palace door, the sunken palace door creaked, the moment it closed, she saw Yan Yilan standing alone under the moonlight of magnolia blossoms, her face was still charming and bright, but she was alone .

A flying flower landed on her shoulder, but she forgot to brush it.
