Chapter 37: You and Me

The place Zhao Minghe took Lin Jieyu to was not some expensive restaurant, but a bun shop on the street.Although this bun shop is small, it is very tidy.Lin Jieyu walked into the store and sat down at a random place.Zhao Minghe took the teapot and filled both of their teacups.

"Do you come here often?" Lin Jieyu asked, seeing that Zhao Minghe acted naturally as if he was in his own house.

"En." Zhao Minghe smiled. "The buns here are the best, the best in Beijing."

"I thought you were going to say number one in the world." Seeing Zhao Minghe's childish smile, Lin Jieyu smiled lightly.

"Number one in the world doesn't count." Zhao Minghe continued. "My mother's buns are the best in the world."

"Your mother?" Lin Jieyu said when he heard Zhao Minghe talk about his family for the first time.

"En." Zhao Minghe responded shallowly, and said nothing more.

Zhao and Lin ate a total of ten baskets of steamed buns that night, causing the customers in the shop to be dumbfounded and unaware.They chatted while eating steamed stuffed buns, and there seemed to be endless things to say.In fact, most of the time it was Lin Jieyu who was listening to Zhao Minghe. She only saw that he was talking happily, his eyes were bright, shining with the light of life.

In a daze, Lin Jieyu's vision seemed to penetrate the deep palace wall through Zhao Minghe, and he saw a completely different world.

That world was sunny and full of vitality, but there was no Lin Huiye.

It was late at night when Lin Jieyu and Zhao Minghe came out of the bun shop.In the middle of the night, the capital city was extremely empty, and there were no pedestrians on the streets.Zhao Minghe took Lin Jieyu along the shop and introduced to her the buildings under the moonlight one by one.

"Hey, this is a tailor shop. The proprietress in the shop is a tigress, and everyone in a radius of ten miles knows it. But, her craftsmanship is excellent. There is also a pharmacy next to it, most of which are fake medicines. , no one has gone there, I think it will close down soon.”

Lin Jieyu listened carefully to Zhao Minghe's words, and looked at them one by one, as if he saw the proprietress' slapstick.

"Master Xie, do you know where the lights are brightly lit late at night in the capital?"

"I don't know." Lin Jieyu replied.

"Do you want to go and have a look?" Zhao Minghe smiled.

"No."

"Why?"

"It's still open at this late hour. It's either a brothel or a casino. What's there to go to?" Lin Jieyu cast a sideways glance at Zhao Minghe and said.

"Ah... So Mr. Xie still knows about brothels and casinos?"

"I've been out of the palace." Lin Jieyu said so, then turned his head to look at Zhao Minghe, and said. "You...Although you are often at the border, you know this place very well."

"I'm often in the desolation, but my heart is in the hustle and bustle." Hearing what Lin Jieyu said, Zhao Minghe looked at her sideways and said. "It's not like you, amidst the hustle and bustle and disputes, but there is only one person in your heart."

Hearing what Zhao Minghe said, Lin Jieyu didn't answer, but just walked slowly beside her.

Seeing that she was silent, Zhao Minghe said again.

"Actually, these shops are nothing. There are more and better places outside the capital city. The sea of ​​clouds and clear springs in Lingxi Valley. The peach blossoms in Jiyue City. The boundless sea area at the end of the world...all of them are as beautiful as they appear in a painting. You...don't want to see it for yourself?"

"Of course... I want to." Lin Jieyu replied like this, but he didn't hear Zhao Minghe's voice for a long time.

She turned her head and saw Zhao Minghe standing in place, letting the bright moonlight fall down.I don't know how long it took before she listened to Zhao Minghe.

"Then...will you come with me?"

"Go? Where are you going?" Lin Jieyu asked inexplicably when he heard Zhao Minghe say this.

"Go to many places. Stay away from the palace, stay away from conspiracies, stay away from wars...just you and me. I will protect you, take you to eat delicious food, and arrange everything for you. We...listen to the rain and watch the falling flowers, like wild cranes in the clouds Live. Until we are old, we will die together. Okay?"

Lin Jieyu saw Zhao Minghe's eyes reflecting the moonlight, his serious expression seemed to be talking about something that he had thought about for a long time.

Let her...unable to answer.

"Pfft...hahahahaha... Lin Jieyu, look at your expression. Do you take what I said seriously?" However, just when Lin Jieyu was about to give an answer, Zhao Minghe suddenly cried out. laugh it out.

Lin Jieyu looked at her and said nothing.

"I was born with a face of war and conspiracy, and I thought you wouldn't believe it." Zhao Minghe wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes, and said.

"Actually, you are more suitable for that kind of life."

Hearing what Lin Jieyu said, Zhao Minghe was stunned for a while before laughing.

"Why?"

"I always feel that you don't really like wars and conspiracies. You should be like a wild crane." Lin Jieyu said so, turning his head to look at Zhao Minghe.Zhao Minghe saw her with a clear expression, her thin lips opened and closed, and said to himself. "But no matter what the reason is, as long as it hurts His Majesty, I will not let you go."

Chuanyi wandered around in front of the imperial study for half an hour, but dared not go in.It wasn't until Lin Huiye's faint call came from inside that he bravely pushed the door open.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty." Chuanyi smiled.

"What are you laughing at?" Seeing his bright spring smile, Lin Huiye knew there was nothing good, so he raised his eyebrows and said. "How about the thing you asked?"

"This... this... is..."

"Come on, drag it out and cut it off."

"Your Majesty! The servant said! The servant said! Mrs. Xie, she...is out of the palace." Feeling that Lin Huiye's breath suddenly cooled down, Chuan Yi fell to his knees in front of Lin Huiye.After following Lin Huiye for these years, he knew very well that if Lin Huiye said "drag it out and behead it", it was really dragging it out and beheading it.

"Where have you been?"

"No... I don't know." Chuanyi said with her forehead pressed against the ground. "The servant only knows that she went out in General Zhao's carriage."

"Zhao Minghe?"

"Yes... yes." When Lin Huiye said the three big characters "Zhao Minghe", Chuanyi was in a bad mood.He thought, if Lin Huiye was still normal at this moment, he would definitely not add the surname "Zhao" to address that person.

"Slave...slave sent someone to bring Mr. Xie back?" Seeing that Lin Hui was silent in the middle of the night, Chuanyi asked in a low voice.

"no need."

"Then...?" Chuanyi squinted her small eyes, waiting for Lin Huiye to speak.

"Just pretend I never looked for her." After a while, Lin Huiye said so, and Chuanyi saw her waving at him, and said. "Go down."

It rained heavily on the way back to the palace, Zhao Minghe ordered the coachman to take Lin Jieyu back to the Hall of All Souls, but Lin Jieyu refused, so he had to park the car at the side entrance of the palace.Lin Jieyu got out of the car, stood in the heavy rain, looked at the palace wall blackened by the night, and after a long while turned around to say goodbye to Zhao Minghe.

Zhao Minghe saw Lin Jieyu take two steps, then turned around and said to himself.

"Zhao Minghe, how do you know that staying in the palace won't be exciting?"

Just when Zhao Minghe saw Lin Jieyu's lips slightly raised, the man turned around and disappeared into the night.She saw the pale yellow figure flying over the eaves and walls, and soon disappeared.The coachman turned the carriage around and prepared to return home, but he heard Zhao Minghe talking to himself from inside the carriage, and he heard Zhao Minghe say calmly.

"Tonight, she laughed many times... She should make up for the laughs of the past ten years or so."

Lin Jieyu did not return to the Hall of All Souls, but went to Lin Huiye's Yannian Palace.Although she knew that Lin Huiye should be sleeping at this time, she still wanted to stay outside her palace for a while.It was as if she could calm down with Lin Huiye's breath.

Lin Jieyu thought so, and then walked quickly through the rainy night. After a while, Lin Huiye's Yannian Palace was close at hand.

Even in such a pouring rain, Lin Huiye's Yannian Palace was still thick and solid, just looking at it made him feel safe and secure.Lin Jieyu secretly admired the square appearance of Yannian Palace for a while, then sneaked in.

Lin Huiye didn't like light when he was sleeping, so Yannian Palace had almost no light at night except for the dark red palace lanterns on the side of the road.Lin Jieyu walked quickly on the eaves, wanting to go to Lin Huiye's bedroom, but unexpectedly found an orange-yellow light in a corner of Yannian Palace.

That light came from Lin Huiye's imperial study.

She...hasn't slept yet.

Thinking of this, Lin Jieyu felt his heart start beating wildly.Almost without any control, Lin Jieyu walked towards the bright light.

Quietly falling outside the window of Lin Huiye's study, Lin Jieyu stretched out his hand, poked a small hole in the window, and saw Lin Huiye's profile.The man was sitting in front of the desk in a bright yellow dragon robe, apparently he hadn't changed his clothes since he turned down.Lin Jieyu saw Lin Huiye's long curly hair and trembling eyelashes, reflecting the candlelight, she was so beautiful that it took her breath away.

Just when Lin Jieyu lost his mind, the window of the imperial study was suddenly opened from the inside.She looked up, and saw Lin Huiye looking at her.

"His Majesty?"

"It's so late, where did Zhen's Jieyu come back from?" However, Lin Huiye did not answer Lin Jieyu's words, but smiled gently.

Lin Jieyu only felt a soft handkerchief fall on top of his head, covering his wet long hair.

"I...I..." Lin Jieyu felt that his throat was dry and he couldn't say a word for a while.Lin Huiye's slender fingers gently ran back and forth through his hair through the towel, wiping off those drops of water.Lin Jieyu only felt that happiness was rushing towards her face, which made her unable to breathe.

"What are you? Come in and change your wet clothes. Otherwise, you'll catch a cold easily."

"Yeah." Lin Jieyu only felt sore eyes, and while responding, he left the window and entered through the main entrance.She just blamed too much rain tonight, which made her face covered.
