Darkness of Rebirth

After waking up, Dongfang found that the two of them were covered with quilts. Probably after she fell asleep, An Yun spread the quilt on the inside of the bed to cover the two of them in fear that she would catch a cold. Thinking of this, shallow Smile, full of happiness.The dark cloud in her arms was still there, and before she woke up, Dongfangdu secretly kissed her on the lips before letting go of his arms around her waist, wanting to leave quietly.

"Going to the East Palace?" Unexpectedly, as soon as her hand left, An Yun woke up.

"Yun'er, are you awake? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Dongfangdu turned his head and asked in a soft voice.This must be especially gentle when speaking to someone who has just woken up.

"When you woke up, I was already awake." An Yun raised his eyebrows and smiled, jokingly said: "I didn't expect Sister Du to do such a thing of stealing incense and jade..." This is deliberately pretending to be asleep, just to feel Imagine the feeling of being kissed by the one you love, and sure enough, it feels good and happy.

"Uh..." Dongfang Du's ears turned red in embarrassment after being exposed by An Yun's blunt words. Then he realized that the two had expressed their feelings for each other, and it was reasonable to do this. He straightened his face and changed the topic back to At the beginning, "I'll go to the East Palace. It's about [-]:[-] o'clock in Shen's time now. The New Year's Eve banquet starts at [-]:[-] o'clock in the you. There is only one hour left. I have to go to the prince's place before the banquet starts." After a pause, I added another sentence , "Go to sleep for a while, I'll be back soon." After finishing speaking, he got out of bed.

An Yun also got up, "No, I won't sleep anymore", lifted the quilt, and got out of bed, "I'll accompany you to the East Palace." He said it plainly, wishing he could stay together every second!

Dongfangdu was stunned for a moment, and replied with a smile: "Alright, let's go together." After finishing speaking, he glanced up and down at An Yun, "However, I have to change clothes, you wait for me here for a while." After finishing speaking, he went outside walk between.

After a while, he returned to the inner room with a tray.There was a set of maid's clothes on the tray, and Dongfangdu handed the tray to An Yun, "Yun'er, don't you mind wearing these clothes?" Respect, I still have to ask the previous question.

An Yun took the clothes on the tray and said with a slight smile: "Of course I don't mind wearing the clothes of the court lady, but... can you stop looking at me so directly?" When she took the clothes, she looked Dongfangdu's eyes lit up, and his left eyebrow slightly raised, obviously thinking about something inappropriate for children.

"How about I help you change your clothes? In this whole world, I can only change your clothes for you." After speaking, he put the tray aside, and stepped forward to undress An Yun.

Seeing this, An Yun curled his lips into a smile, put down his clothes, and raised his hands so that Dongfang Du could undress her, "I haven't seen you for four years, have you become more courageous?" Before, he was only daring to talk but not to do.

"Is this palace ever timid?" Dongfangdu glanced at Anyun, met her teasing eyes, his ears turned red, he was embarrassed to call himself Bengong again, but he was unwilling to be looked down upon by Anyun, so he defended Said: "You were young back then, I'm afraid I can't help it..." I was an adult at that time!What if you do something beastly...you are still a child!

"Oh? Really? Is it really because I was young at that time?" I think it's because you are timid and act like you!Even if I strip off, you don't know how to do it!

Dongfangdu went around behind Anyun, took off her clothes, and put on the maid's coat for her with his own hands, before replying: "It's not because you are young, what else can you do because of it? It's not like Xiao Yun'er, at such a young age, even You don’t even know this etiquette?” Yun’er is still underage, how could I do such a thing!

An Yun sighed, and said in a tone of unknown emotion: "If I know the etiquette, how can I love you..." Because of this sentence, the originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere suddenly became heavy. Both fell silent.

"Okay." Dongfang Du smoothed An Yun's clothes lightly, then turned and walked outside after speaking.

Seeing her expressionless face, An Yun knew that what she said just now had hurt her, so he quickly grabbed her hand and wanted to explain, "Du, I'm sorry, I..." wanted to explain, but didn't know how to explain.

"Do you really think that it is against the law of etiquette for us to be together? Is it wrong?" The law of etiquette, I don't know where to start, but it is all set by people, and people will make mistakes. Why do people set the rules for a man and a woman to marry According to the rules, it is wrong for this girl to be together?Doesn't it mean that existence is reasonable?Her feelings for Yun'er are real, so it should be reasonable!But why, in the eyes of An Yun, is this a breach of etiquette?Anyone can deny her feelings, but An Yun can't.

Looking back, the moment their eyes met, Dongfang Du knew that he was wrong, "I'm sorry, I... I misunderstood what you just said." What An Yun said was about each other's status, not gender.She has always been the only one who cares about this gender.Because he cared, he dared not confess in his previous life. Because he cared, he thought of escaping with death. Because he cared, An Yun would always think of this gender when he said anything casually.

She is the one who is cowardly, she is the one who is inferior, she is the one who is indecisive, she is the one who worries about gains and losses, she is the one who falls in love first, and the person who wants to love but dare not love is her from the beginning to the end.

Looking at Dongfang Du, who admitted his mistake with downcast eyes, An Yun's heart ached. There were some words that he hadn't said all this time. Now, it's time to say, "Du, from the very beginning, our status and identity meant that we couldn't be together. Together. You are the prince, I am the secret guard, you are an upright person, and I am a sword in the hands of the emperor. This etiquette means that you are destined to be unattainable to me..."

"I know, I know." Dongfang Du hugged An Yun, "You don't need to say, I know. I'm just too inferior. If I were the real prince, how could I be wrong for the rest of my life? At that time... at that time What I said was just angry words. Yun'er, when you came, I was scared and happy at the same time. I was afraid that you were sorry for me, and that you would hate me if you knew who I was, but I also thought that you came because you loved me. ...Happy but also sad, sad that you, like me, have no afterlife..."

What he said was incoherent, but An Yun understood, and raised his hand to pat her on the back lightly, "It's good that you understand. Don't cry, cry again, will this East Palace go or not?" An Yun was the first to reply. I thought of the right thing rationally.

Dongfangdu buried his face in Anyun's shoulder, sobbing softly. Hearing Anyun's reminder, he realized that he had to go to the East Palace.Thinking about my behavior just now, this face is really embarrassing!

Without the dark clouds, she resolutely and resolutely strategized and secretly deployed, and in just eight months, a group of people were deployed into the court and the army.In the imperial examination in August of the 16th year of Qiansheng, all the civil and military champions were hers, and there were countless people who were in the second and third ranks.Those people were like shuttles, weaving a big net for her.In the past four years, the court has been half controlled by her, and the Jianghu also has an organization built by her.

But as soon as she faced the dark cloud, she was at a loss what to do. With a word, she ran away in a panic.

When the tears stopped flowing, Dongfangdu came out of Anyun's arms, staring at her with eyes full of emotions, and after a while, he breathed out and sighed: "Yun'er, you are really... Weakness..." But don't become my enemy, otherwise, I really don't know what to do.

"You are the same to me." An Yun smiled lightly.

After all the twists and turns, the two finally confessed to each other, so the next thing will naturally be faced together.However, An Yun couldn't figure out what Dongfang Du planned for the throne.If she doesn't take the throne, who should it be given to?Could it be for the imperial sister Dongfang Lingwu?If that's the case, Dongfang Lingwu... is really pitiful!

Shen Shi five quarters, East Palace.

Not long after Dongfang Xi returned to the palace, the imperial doctor came to check his pulse. After checking his pulse, he only said that he was too tired for the past two days and that he was fine. He prescribed two sedatives and then withdrew.But Dongfang Xi couldn't let go of his heart, and was always anxious until Dongfang Du came to his East Palace.

"Second Brother, why are you in such a hurry to come to Emperor Brother's East Palace?" Before noon, they had secretly issued an order to evict them, but within half a day, they came to him.Going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, Dongfang Xi squinted his eyes and asked with a smile: "Did the emperor come to me for something?"

Dongfang Du smiled slightly, "Brother Prince, can you ask the imperial doctor to come over and take the pulse of the emperor?" Rolling the wheelchair, he approached the Dongfang seat, "I am worried about the body of the emperor, and Duo just knows a little bit about medical skills, so I am here to check the pulse of the emperor. .” Explaining the purpose of coming, she quietly looked at Dongfang Xi, waiting for his answer.

"In this way, there will be the Second Brother Lao." Dongfang Xi sat down, put his left hand on the tea table, and waited for Dongfang Du to feel his pulse.

Dongfangdu raised his hand and pressed lightly on his three inches. After a while, he frowned.Seeing this, Dongfang Xi's heart trembled, and he asked uneasily: "Second Imperial Brother, what's wrong with this palace? But it's okay to say!"

After being silent for a while, seeing that Dongfang Xi was very anxious, Dongfang Du replied: "Brother Huang, I have been poisoned for a long time."

"Poisoning? What is poisoning? The imperial doctor had checked my pulse before and said that there was nothing serious about me. How could my younger brother know that I was poisoned?" Dongfang Xi frowned. Believe that you are really poisoned.

"In a few days, there will be chest tightness in the morning and heartache at night. By then, it won't be too late for the emperor to believe." Dongfang Du didn't explain too much. The purpose of her coming was not just to talk about his poisoning.

"But..." Seeing Dongfang Du's calm face, Dongfang Xi didn't know whether to believe it or not?

"Brother Huang, Brother Huang has never thought of harming Brother Huang, so why did you tell lies to deceive Brother Huang?" Seeing that he was moved, he continued: "Forgive me to be blunt, even if Brother Huang loses the crown prince one day, It's not her turn either, and looking at Du's frail and half-disabled body, do you think it will threaten you?" If it's not her turn, only Dongfang Xu and Dongfang Jin are left behind her, and of the two of them, the most powerful It could be his younger brother Dongfang Xu.

"Second brother, you... don't you want to sow discord!" Dongfang Xi widened his eyes, first said that he was poisoned, and now sowed the relationship between him and his brother. What is this if it has ulterior motives?

"If you don't believe me, Brother Huang, just leave." It was enough to plant the seeds of doubt, and she didn't want to use a few words to turn Dongfang Xi and Dongfang Xu into enemies.After finishing speaking, without waiting for Dongfang Xi to say anything else, he rolled the wheelchair and left his East Palace, leaving him sitting there blankly.

"Your Highness, Second Prince, are you going back to the palace?" An Yun, who was waiting at the door, saw Dongfang Du come out, and asked.

"There's still time, how about going to Ling Xin Palace of the Imperial Sister." After speaking, An Yun pushed her wheelchair and headed towards Ling Xin Palace.

Dongfangdu was reluctant to let An Yun hurt his hands by pushing the wheelchair for her, so after a while he said, "Yun'er, don't push. I'll do it myself." What a difference!Banlan pushed the wheelchair with a look of contentment, while An Yun pushed the wheelchair with a look of distress...

"It's okay, it's just a short distance." An Yun insisted on pushing her.In fact, this feeling is quite good, maybe when I get old in the future, I really need this wheelchair!Today is just an early experience.

"Thank you for your hard work." I will never pretend to be weak and sit in a wheelchair again!Or bring Banlan with you when you go out in the future, and let her push the wheelchair!
