Mingyue is ruthless

Lu Zhongshu stabilized his figure and stared fixedly at Chu Yuning.

Chu Yuning was born with a good appearance, and now she is even more gorgeous.He still remembers those lips, which are beautifully shaped and soft to the touch. He has kissed them countless times, and cherished them countless times during the years of parting.

Such soft lips, why did they spit out heart-wrenching words one after another in an understatement?Why did it turn into a sharp knife again and again, piercing his heart so easily?

After Yang Lou said goodbye, Lu Zhongshu had indeed decided to give up, but he never thought that Si Yuanlan would bring the news of his illness, let alone that Chu Yuning would actually return to his hometown because of this.

He was ecstatic and took this as a turning point between them.The clinker Chu Yuning's heart is as firm as a rock, even now that the year's close is approaching and the family is reunited, he still wants to leave.

Perhaps for me, he was really discouraged.

Lu Zhongshu smiled bitterly, and lowered his eyes dejectedly.

That's why he didn't realize that Chu Yu was staring at him in distress and pain, and there was an unspeakable undercurrent surging in his eyes.

If the servant hadn't explained everything today, how long would Lu Zhongshu keep the secret from him?

The days in the palace were so comfortable that he almost forgot their identities.

Lu Zhongshu and him are totally different, even if he has escaped from slavery by feigning death, how can ordinary people step into the palace of the king?

It is true that he loves Lu Zhongshu, and he is eager for a response.But at this time, I heard with my own ears that Lu Zhongshu resisted the marriage and decree for him, disobeyed the emperor's relatives, even dripped with blood, and almost died... What virtue and ability can he have?

Not to mention, he, Prince Lu, has a bright future, so he shouldn't be entangled with servants and wasting his life.

not worth it.

This farce started because of his excessive extravagance and desire, so he might as well end it himself.

At this moment, there was a soft sound from behind the pillar.I saw a little maid came out and saluted in a panic: "Slave, slave girl, please be well, and please be well, Mr. Chu!"

This servant girl was originally ordered to sweep the side hall, but when she looked up, there were two people in front of her, Lu Zhongshu, and she was terrified at the moment.

Lu Zhongshu was worried, and only waved his hand to signal her to back down.

The original gloomy atmosphere did not ease for a moment because of this, but Chu Yuning had recovered, collected her thoughts without a trace, and took the lead in saying: "Your wound is not healed, go back to your room to rest." After saying that, she was about to leave.

Lu Zhongshu didn't move his feet, and suddenly said: "Since you have made up your mind to go, it doesn't matter if I get sick and die."

Chu Yuning panicked for no reason when she heard him say this, frowned and said, "Why are you doing this?"

"Am I wrong?" Lu Zhongshu took a step forward and stared at him, but he couldn't choose what to say: "Father is gone, the emperor's uncle and elder brother are separated from me. Although I have slaves, I have no wife. I am alone, I am afraid that there will be no one to collect the body when I die on the bed that day..."

"What nonsense!" Chu Yuning said angrily.

But Lu Zhongshu didn't stop, but intensified, "It's ridiculous that my life is full of absurdity, hatred, love, parting, but I can't ask for it... The noble son, but he has tasted the seven hardships of Buddhism--in this way, it is better to escape into Buddhism as soon as possible, so as not to be in danger. In the end, there are no relatives and no reason, and the evening scene is bleak—A Ning, even so, do you still want to leave?"

He was really in a hurry, in order to keep Chu Yuning, he did not hesitate to go the wrong way, cursing himself in the most vicious way, hoping that in exchange for Chu Yuning, he could not bear it.

How well Chu Yuning knew him, she had already seen him through, but even so, she was still angry and hurt when she heard it, her reason had long been overturned by anger, he tried his best to restrain his panting, and slowly pulled a vengeful smile, slightly nod.

Lu Zhongshu stared at him blankly, stunned in his heart, "Ah Ning... You, you can think about it, you really want to..."

"really."

"...Okay, okay." Lu Zhongshu smiled miserably, "I should have known, I should have known... You mentioned it many times, but I never took it seriously. I just hoped that you would change your mind and give me one last chance to change. .”

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "But I never thought that you have hated me to this point. You would rather watch me die than leave half a leeway between you and me. Ah Ning, I don't blame you, but you Ask yourself, you and I have nothing to do with you when we are in this field today? As long as you are willing to let go, as long as you are willing to take a look at your heart—”

"Why don't I want to stay...?"

No matter how unbearable Chu Yuning could bear it, she grabbed his front and said, "—for the servants of the old days who refused to follow orders, and even dared to challenge the emperor... Lu Zhongshu, look at the wound on your chest, you treat me like you Who? Who do you think I am?! This time I escaped by chance, and my life is safe. What about the next time? Next time?! Marrying a house slave who is not on the table, I am always trembling like walking on thin ice. Do you still remember that you are the son of the prince? !"

"You are the prince!" He panted quickly, his eyes were red and his voice was trembling, "Why...why suffer this wrong..."

Lu Zhongshu was already in a daze, and suddenly made a move after a while, hugged Chu Yuning into his arms, and leaned over to kiss her.

Like a traveler in the desert, because he didn't know the heights of the sky and the depth of the earth, he drank his water bag early, but staggered in the yellow sand all over the sky, propping up his increasingly haggard body to move forward. Seeing that the last bit of strength was about to be exhausted, he even left a last word to God, and suddenly looked back , but found an oasis beside him.

He sucked Chu Yuning's lips, opened his teeth with the tip of his tongue and drove straight in, as if he was really thirsty, greedily tasted his sweet body fluid, and almost crazily grabbed every breath of his, until Chu Yuning couldn't bear it anymore, and raised his hand slightly After touching his front, he reluctantly withdrew, and then pecked on his lips.

Chu Yuning panted lightly, her eyes were flushed from tears just now, her lips were slightly parted, and the water-red lips were wetted by body fluid, revealing a charming luster.

"Lu Zhongshu, you..."

"A Ning." Lu Zhongshu interrupted his stern accusation, with a smile in his eyes, "I'm very happy...very happy. A Ning."

He couldn't help sipping a kiss on Chu Yuning's lips, and made an embarrassing sound, "You still love me, but you are worried about hurting me, and you have to leave Beijing as a last resort. You love me, don't you?"

Chu Yuning remained silent, but the sudden change of color revealed everything, so he lowered his head again and kissed her hard.

"Don't worry." He comforted in the gap between kisses: "I want to marry you, and I will take care of everything. You just need to say a word."

He and the person in his arms looked at each other, half joyful, half apprehensive in his eyes, "Ah Ning... are you really going?"

Chu Yuning leaned against him with downcast eyes, trembling all over, her lips parted and closed, and finally said in a hoarse voice: "No..."

The voice was extremely soft, like a sigh of resignation, "I... can't let you go.

"I love you."

☆, final chapter

Furong Xiaomeng, the tent is warm and sandalwood.

Ji Nu walked to the front of the couch, but saw the silk tent hanging down, behind the silk tent, there were vaguely visible clouds scattered all over, and a thin figure seemed to be sleeping soundly.

He took a step forward very carefully, half-kneeling on the floor mat, and reached out to touch the fingertips resting on the edge of the couch.

But he didn't expect that person to touch his fingertips in a half-dream and half-awake, and opened his eyes.

This sleep was sound and sweet, and it wasn't until this time that I felt very sore all over my body, as if I had been run over by a car.

Chu Yuning didn't want anyone in the inner room, as soon as she opened her eyes, she met the person outside the tent, almost screamed out, and looked again, only to wake up.

"...Chuan'er?"

When he said the words, he himself was startled for a while—the voice was hoarse, not like in the past.

Jinu responded, "Baby please greet Daddy."

Chu Yuning lowered her eyes and smiled, resisting the discomfort behind her and being hugged to sit up, only to find that her side was empty, and Lu Zhongshu had already left.

"You..." Being alone with Jinu, especially at this time, he always felt a little uncomfortable.

Ji Nu waited for a while, but did not see the following, and said: "Daddy, do you want to eat first?"

"Ah good."

The servants were out early, and at this moment, holding utensils in their hands, they filed in.

Chu Yuning's toes touched the ground, and she almost fell to the ground when she got out of bed. The vitality in his body seemed to have been squeezed dry. At this moment, it was too difficult to even lift his hands. After washing and changing clothes, it took a while. Fragrant Kung Fu.

But Lu Zhongshu never showed up.

Chu Yuning sat down at the table, feeling resentful in her heart.

Last night, the two of them talked about each other several times, and in the end, he was tormented by Lu Zhongshu until he fell into a coma. Now that his back is sore, the instigator slipped away early.

Thanks to this guy who still remembered to wash and change his clothes, if not, he would be a dandy who didn't admit to it afterwards.

Thinking of this, Chu Yuning couldn't help cursing in a low voice.

But Ji Nu heard the movement, raised his head and asked, "What's the matter, Daddy?"

"...It's nothing." Chu Yuning hurriedly calmed down, and smiled at him: "Chuan'er eat more."

He had a poor appetite, he only ate half a bowl of porridge and stopped chopsticks. After thinking about it, he couldn't be angry, and asked Ji Nu in a harmonious voice, "Is your father in the mansion?"

Jinu swallowed a mouthful of porridge, and replied obediently: "Today's New Year's Eve, father has gone to the palace."

It's the end of the year.

Chu Yuning came to a sudden realization just now, and secretly thought that her life was muddled, and asked again: "Why didn't Chuan'er go with his father?"

Jinu said: "Father said that if Daddy wakes up and sees no one, he will be anxious, so he ordered the child to stay with Daddy in the mansion and go to the palace later."

The anger in her heart dissipated in an instant, Chu Yuning turned her head away, and smiled quietly while avoiding Ji Nu.

This day was free for him.

Before Lu Zhongshu left, he specially ordered Ji Nu to take care of his father, because he was worried that Chu Yuning's restless temperament would not allow him to rest in peace, and wanted to arrange the palace together with his servants. Some people stopped more or less.

But he underestimated himself - Chu Yuning made him almost unable to sit still, so he had no time to think about other things.After the two had breakfast, Ji Nu stayed for another hour before leaving for the palace, but Chu Yuning finally couldn't bear it any longer, and after sending her to the car, she went back to her room to rest.

He originally wanted to take a nap for a while, but the clinker was really exhausted, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

But this sleep is not very stable, I always hear people walking back and forth in the dim, very annoying.But Chu Yuning was extremely sleepy, even so she couldn't open her eyes.Later, he finally fell asleep and had a vague dream, but that dream was not a good one. He only remembered that he suddenly had heart palpitations, and when he opened his eyes, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Jinu has already entered the palace, and the maid Hongzhao is kneeling on the bedside, holding a wet handkerchief in her hand, and said worriedly: "My lord..."

Chu Yuning looked at it in a blink of an eye, only to see that the lights outside the window were wrong, and it was already night.

He took the handkerchief to wipe off the cold sweat, rinsed his mouth again, and asked in a low voice, "What time is it?"

"The third quarter of Shen Shi." Hong Zhao said anxiously: "Young Master just now... he didn't feel very comfortable, he seemed to be haunted, and the slaves dared to wake up Young Master."

Chu Yuning was a little dazed, he couldn't remember the scene in the dream, and the panic in his chest didn't disappear completely, as if something was about to happen, but he was pushed out of the situation, and he couldn't find a trace.

This feeling is very bad, but he has no one to confide in, he can only forcefully smile and say: "Can you have dinner?"

"We're all waiting for you, Young Master." Hong Zhao hung up the bed curtain and said with a smile.

Although Chu Yuning said that she did not sleep well, her body was no longer as sore as in the morning, so she rolled over and got out of bed at this moment.

Hongzhao immediately fetched the horn comb, "Sister Luying went to the front to urge soup, young master, should I go to the front to eat, or ask them to bring it?"

Chu Yuning sat down at the table, looked carefully at the bronze mirror in front of her, only to feel that her complexion was really ugly, and couldn't help thinking about the dream just now.

"Sir?"

"Oh..." He hurried back to his senses, but didn't answer, and asked her instead: "My son...and the young master, when will we return home?"

"If you don't talk about it, you will have a son." Hong Zhao took off the hairpin and put it aside, "But this year, when the son returns to the mansion, the son must be thinking about it, and he will return if he is not sure."

As she spoke, she peeked at Chu Yuning from the mirror and giggled twice.

Lu Zhongshu's intimacy with Chu Yuning couldn't be more obvious, and the saying that "Mr. Chewing his tongue, thinking of Hongzhao's love of trouble when he was young, he teased this to Chu Yuning like a joke.

Chu Yuning blushed from her smile, and felt guilty for no reason, she lowered her eyes and said softly, "Let's say less."

Hong Zhao responded, but said in his heart: "Nowadays, no one in the palace knows, the young master is too thin-skinned."

At this moment, Lu Ying pushed the door open and entered, saw the two of them, and said to Chu Yuning, "Your servant please be safe."

"Sister Luying, is the soup ready?" Hong Zhao picked up the hairpin and carefully put it on for Chu Yuning, "Master, are you satisfied with it? Sigh, but you are so good-looking, you must—"

"Hong Zhao." Lu Ying's face was slightly cold, "Don't be rude."

Hong Zhao flattened her mouth, not daring to say any more.

"Nothing." Chu Yuning smiled, got up and said, "If the dinner is ready, you can go."

Lu Ying said: "The servant girl asked someone to bring dinner."

"No need." Chu Yuning hurriedly said: "I don't have a good appetite, I'll wait for the son... I'll talk about it when he returns to the mansion."

Green Ying should be, pulling the red photo and retreating to the outside room.

After a while, I suddenly heard hurried steps in the corridor, from far to near.

Chu Yuning raised her head when she saw a person walking into the inner room and asked, "Ah Ning, why don't you want to eat?"

Chu Yuning smiled slowly: "Second steward, why are you in such a hurry? Uh...it's because the chief steward is not here, no one is suppressing you?"

Sanxi put down the food box and waved his hands, "Erxi went into the palace with the little prince... What's wrong with you? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"I'm fine."

"Oh——" Sanxi arranged the food and nodded, "It seems that he is suffering from lovesickness."

"..."

"Hey," Sanxi said with a smile, "Why is Ah Ning blushing?"

Finally, Chu Yuning couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed the chopsticks and threw them into his arms, saying viciously: "Let's eat yours!"

With three happy moments, Chu Yuning finally suppressed her apprehension temporarily, and reluctantly ate something.Sanxi was cheerful and good at talking, chatting with him about old and new anecdotes, and told him about the trivial matters of the enslaved slaves. Chu Yuning was not interested at first, but then gradually became fascinated, listened with great interest, and kept urging him to continue.The two of you come and go, and the time of Haishi has passed before you know it.

"...The old prince wanted to snatch the bow from the young master, but the young master naturally refused! He sat back and cried loudly, the old prince was so angry..."

San Xi was talking about the day Ji Nu caught Zhou, but saw Lu Ying push the door in, "My lord, the second manager."

"What's the matter?"

Lu Yingfu leaned forward and said, "The prince has returned home."

As soon as the words fell, Chu Yuning suddenly got up and rushed out of the inner room.

Chu Yuning walked through the corridor and strode towards the front hall. It was the third quarter of the first lunar month, and it was much colder than in the daytime, but he was too anxious to put on his cloak, so he hurriedly wrapped in a thin coat. And out, dare not delay for a moment.

The palace was brightly lit, as soon as Chu Yuning walked around the side hall, he could faintly hear voices in the front hall, interspersed with a few low-pitched orders.

He stopped suddenly, turned around and stood behind the pillar, his chest heaving violently.

What to say to him?

Thousands of words are blocked in the throat, turning into a ball of cotton soaked in water.

Chu Yuning stared at a patch of snow on her toes and lost her mind for a moment.

"A Ning?"

A soft call came from behind.

Chu Yuning raised her head when she heard the sound, only to see a tall and tall person in front of her, whoever it was if it wasn't Lu Zhongshu.

This place was dark and dark, Lu Zhongshu's half body was hidden in the shadows, and the color could not be seen clearly.

"Why are you hiding here?" He took a step forward and led Chu Yuning to the hall, "Hands are also so cold... Hong Zhao said that you have no intention of eating, but you are not feeling well?"

Lanterns hung high along the corridor, illuminating his face redly.Only then did Chu Yuning see the strangeness clearly, she held him back and said anxiously: "You—"

"Ah - Ah Ning!" Lu Zhongshu rushed, "I'm starving, why don't you eat something with me."

"Lu Zhongshu, you..."

"Hey, Chuan'er, the imperial grandfather rewarded you with that jade pendant tonight, show it to your father quickly, Ah Ning, that jade pendant is very good, look..."

The dishes were served one after another, and Chu Yuning was dragged by Lu Zhongshu and Jinu to sit down at the table, and he heard "A Ning" from the left and "Daddy" from the right, so that he couldn't speak.

He didn't know whether to be angry or laughing, so he simply stopped asking, until he and Lu Zhongshu went back to the east chamber and closed the door, then he pushed the person away and asked, "What's the matter with your injury?"

Lu Zhongshu's face was slightly condensed, and he immediately jumped on him with a smile, calling "A Ning" repeatedly in his mouth.

But Chu Yuning didn't let him be fooled, she hid to the side, and said with a sneer, "It's okay not to talk, I'm in a terrible pain, I'm going back to my room to rest first."

"Hey! Ah Ning!" Lu Zhongshu panicked immediately, stepped forward to stop him, and coaxed him softly: "I said, I said... where are you going back? This is your bedroom."

Chu Yuning didn't answer, turned around and sat at the table, raised her hand to pour him a cup of tea, and looked at him leisurely.

Lu Zhongshu raised his hand to touch the red and swollen forehead, and could not help but hiss softly.

"When I went out this morning, I accidentally tripped over a stone."

Chu Yuning nodded slowly, and said clearly: "I tripped over the stone thrown by the Holy Spirit."

"Hey... Ah Ning..." Lu Zhongshu laughed and said, "Didn't you already know..."

"If I can't guess correctly, are you going to hide it from me like this?" Chu Yuning looked anxious, "Which servant do you want to talk to me then?"

"...I'm going to ask the imperial uncle for an edict this morning." Lu Zhongshu mumbled: "I was a little anxious in my words, so... I took a bite."

"you--!"

Chu Yuning didn't need to think about what kind of edict he was asking for. She was angry and anxious for a while, and pointed at him "you" for a long while, but she couldn't say a word.

Lu Zhongshu laughed, and hugged him into his arms and kissed him fiercely, "But the emperor agrees, this time I got the oral order, and the edict will be issued on the third day of the junior high school. Ah Ning, from now on, you will be mine." princess."

He smiled foolishly, hugged and kissed him for a while, then suddenly supported him by his side and turned around in circles.

Chu Yuning turned pale with shock, quickly stretched out her hands to clasp his shoulders, and said in a trembling voice: "What kind of crazy, let me down quickly! Lu Zhongshu!"

Lu Zhongshu laughed and put him down, buried his head on his neck and rubbed it lightly, then suddenly stopped moving.

Chu Yuning waited for a long while, but saw no other movement from him, and thought of his injuries, she couldn't help feeling worried, and whispered: "Lu Zhongshu...?"

"I'm here."

The hands around her waist tightened tightly, and the warm softness pressed against the hollow of her neck. Chu Yuning was about to speak, but a sigh full of joy sounded in her ears.

Thousands of flowers and trees suddenly rose in the night sky, and the entire capital instantly brightened like day.

He looked out through the window lattice, but saw the sky thousands of miles away, the bright moon in the sky in front of him, illuminating the verdant flowers and trees in the atrium;

The love, hatred and hustle and bustle of the past disappeared together, and in the silence, he suddenly remembered a poem that he heard when he was young when he was hiding outside the room of the little prince many years ago.

"People have joys and sorrows, the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete..."

He lowered his eyes and chuckled, held Lu Zhongshu's face in his hands, and kissed it gently.

--Nung, moon and new moon.
