Tang Ling didn't answer her sister's earnest persuasion, instead she stood up from the ground and rushed outside, even though her sister shouted her name behind her, she ignored it.

She must tell Jia Xu how much she likes him, and she is even fascinated.She wanted him to take her to escape from Luoyang, to a world where there was no emperor, no queen mother, and even no people in the world, and live the life she had repeatedly dreamed about in her dreams.

Tang Ling kept running with Ru Qun, which was in the way, past houses and market places, and ran to the lantern shop, the place where he first met.

She has been wandering around waiting, with unprecedented anxiety and expectations in her heart.She kept preparing words in her heart, afraid of losing her composure in front of him, and even more afraid that everything was her own vain fantasy.

She waited from morning to afternoon, but he still didn't show up.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead because of her eagerness, and kept looking around, catching half of his figure in the hustle and bustle of people coming and going.

No, she didn't wait for him, but she saw a few bully-like hooligans walking over with their arms crossed, the leader with a beard said in a friendly tone, "Little beauty, I've been waiting here for almost a day, are you waiting for your lover?" ah?"

As he said that, he raised his eyebrows at the brothers around him, and got the same obscene approval from them: "That's right, I'm afraid it's not because your lover doesn't want you, so it's better to be happy with my brothers."

They had never seen such a beautiful girl before. After staring at her salivatingly for a while, they couldn't help but want to come up and touch her with all their might.

The passers-by all looked sideways when they saw this, but no one dared to stand up and help the unarmed Tang Ling.These bullies have always been local snakes that the government is unwilling to catch. If they dare to interfere in their good affairs, they may also implicate themselves.

They can only shake their heads and stand by, thinking that this handsome girl can only ask for blessings.

Unexpectedly, Tang Ling neither screamed nor resisted, but stood calmly at the same spot, and there was a sense of Zhenlie in her eyes that did not allow others to get close to her.She suddenly had the idea of ​​giving up on herself. Since this outstanding appearance made her selected into the palace as a concubine, and she couldn't get the love she wanted, and now she is coveted by these gangsters, she might as well ruin it. No more worries.

It's just disfigurement, so there's nothing terrible about it.

Thinking of this, she pulled out the hosta in her hair vigorously, her hair suddenly fell down to her waist, it was as smooth as satin, black as ink.The look of astonishment flashed in the eyes of those hooligans, but it turned into panic three seconds later - the girl in front of him who looked weak and weak decisively scratched the face with the tip of the jade hairpin until a bright red streak appeared. The bloodstains were particularly glaring and shocking on her fair face.

Tang Ling opened her eyes wide with anger, pointed the jade hairpin at the bearded leader, and shouted: "Do you dare to come here?"

The hooligans were obviously stunned by the shock, this crazy woman actually ruined their appearance, maybe it drove her into a hurry, and they were afraid that they would bite the brothers desperately.The group of people felt that the fun was gone, and their hearts stopped, and they couldn't help but looked at each other: "This is a lunatic, let's go."

As if they had encountered some evil star, they glared at Tang Ling fiercely, then greeted each other and turned to leave.

Tang Ling caressed the scar on his face in a daze, touching the hot and humid blood, dripping on his chin and itching slightly.She lost all strength in an instant, dizzy in front of her eyes, as if everything was spinning, and she fell powerlessly to the side of the road.

"Miss Tang, what's the matter with you?" Just as she was about to fall into a coma, she heard the gentle voice that she had recalled a thousand times.

She cheered up suddenly, raised her eyes hurriedly, and saw him.He didn't wear a crown, and his hair was long and loose, but he looked a little haggard.

That was the Jia Xu she was thinking about in her dreams. In her dreams, he smiled at her gently and solemnly said to her that his son would return home, and that he should belong to my family.

As soon as her eyes touched his face, she broke free from the hopeless state, and even ignored the stinging pain on her face.

"Take me away, okay?" She forced herself to stand up, wiped the dripping blood with her sleeves, her eyes were full of hope, "I don't want to enter the palace as a concubine, do you know that I love you?" You fell in love at first sight? You must like me too, right?" This was the first time she was so bold and brave, but she wondered whether he knew the burning emotion in her heart.

Jia Xu quietly listened to her flame-like narration, but in fact he knew, he knew everything.

He really wanted to tell the fragile and helpless girl in front of him how much he liked her.She said that she fell in love with herself at first sight, so why not herself.

He was born in a poor family in Liangzhou, and he came to the capital alone. No one of the noble children in Luoyang respected him, and no one knew that he was full of strategies but had nowhere to display his loneliness.She is a ray of light that suddenly shines into his heart in this indifferent world. That day she raised her eyes and peeked at him secretly, and there was a sudden look of excitement in her eyes. It was appreciation, surprise, or pure love. .

He was in the abyss, so he was eager to catch this warm and bright light.

Since that first meeting, he has often waited for her near the lantern shop.He firmly believed that she would come to him after all.But when he finally got there, he saw her face covered in blood and scars, lying weakly on the side of the bluestone road, muttering "Wenhe".That's his word.

But she turned out to be the young daughter of Tang Heng, a constant attendant who used to have power over the government and the public. Now the emperor has ordered her to enter the palace as a concubine. love.

He really wanted to take her and escape to Xiliang, where there were only two of them within a radius of ten miles.There, he can show her the Gobi Desert that she has never seen before, where there are thousands of cliffs winding like snakes, the Qilian Mountains that Huo Qubing conquered when he was young, and the song of Liangzhou played by the pipa.

But these are just fantasies.She has her family, and he also has people to protect.What's more, he still has ambition and talent. He wants to be a public servant so that the Han people of Xiliang will be respected in the court.How weak the relationship between children is in front of these, it seems more like a childish joke between teenagers.

"I'm afraid Miss Tang has misunderstood you." After a long time, he met Tang Ling's tearful but hopeful eyes, and spoke with difficulty to extinguish her hope.

He couldn't bear to see Tang Ling's disappointed expression again, he lowered his head slightly, and kept a two-point distance from her calmly: "The scar on Miss Tang's face needs to heal before entering the palace, otherwise I'm afraid The crime of deceiving the king."

Tang Ling's heart fell to the bottom in an instant, and a trace of heartbreaking pain cut through her immature skin like rocks.But she was not reconciled in the end, her mouth was wide open in astonishment, and she hesitated for a long time before asking him: "You deliberately lied to me because you are concerned about the emperor of the Han family, aren't you? Your eyes can't hide from me."

He tried his best to calm himself down, looked directly at her unwilling eyes, and made his voice sound like usual: "Miss Tang is worrying too much. It's just the estrus of the fair lady Qin Seyouzhi, and I just admired her at the time." Miss Fangzi, it's not what you think."

***

"He must be lying to me, he obviously likes me." Tang Ling cried out of breath for A Sheng, tears dripping down like broken beads, staining the printed tablecloth with water .

There was despair in her eyes, she was obviously a lively and innocent girl, but at the moment she was feeling endless sorrow and pain for the world, and then she began to doubt herself: "But what he said could not be the friendship of a fair lady, could he be true?" He never liked me, it was just my wishful thinking."

Ah Sheng didn't expect that person named Wen He to be so heartless. When Tang Ling first came back, she was weak and absent-minded, even her voice was hoarse from crying.What surprised her even more was that there was a bloody cut on Tang Ling's face. She just thought that she had encountered some kind of thief again, but Tang Ling didn't care about this scar, as if it was a kind of relief that made her feel relieved.

But the immediate priority is to let Tang Ling's injury fade away as soon as possible.She didn't dare to tell Xun Yu, for fear that Tang Si knew that there would be another bloodbath and Tang Ling would be reprimanded, which would only make the latter even more desperate.

So she could only help Tang Ling hide it, and if she could delay it for a while, let her try to stay at home and hide in the boudoir this month.

A Sheng took out his purse to get some baht money, planning to go out and grab some medicine for Tang Ling.

Unexpectedly, she was stopped by a man as soon as she left the mansion.

"Excuse me, girl, is this the palace guard Xun Yu's residence?"

She nodded yes, and looked at the man in front of her strangely.He is tall, with Xiliang's unique handsome appearance, and there is a deep aura rushing toward his face in his gestures, Ah Sheng keenly feels that this person's chest is unusual.

"What's your name, I'll inform you to my young master." A Sheng said.

But he shook his head and declined: "I am here to find Miss Tang Ling."

As soon as these words came out, Ah Sheng immediately understood who it was.But she really didn't understand what this man named Wen He came to the Xun Mansion after rejecting Tang Ling.

Wen He was very smart, he saw through the doubts and dissatisfaction in A Sheng's heart at a glance, handed her a paper bag in his hand, and said in his mouth: "I'm afraid that Miss Tang's injury is not healed and she is not suitable for entering the palace, so I would like to express my gratitude to you." Mr. Hua Tuo, who traveled here from the Western Regions, asked for some plasters. He has always claimed that Bian Que is reborn, and Miss Tang's face will heal soon."

A Sheng took the paper bag, couldn't help but glance at him again, hesitated to speak.She really wanted to blame him for Tang Ling, but she still didn't say it after thinking about it.Cao Cao once advised her that everyone has their own difficulties, and bystanders may not be able to see them most clearly. In this quagmire-like world, he may also be involuntary, so why should he criticize his power.

She sighed, thanked him, then turned around and walked into the mansion.
