You are as gentle and cool as the moon

During this period of time, An Qingling would come to the depths of the bamboo forest to be with Xia Luoning every now and then, and each time she would bring a lot of food, clothing and useful things.

Xia Luoning thinks that she is very similar to dear Lin, and likes to get along with her from the bottom of her heart.

No matter what she said or did, Xia Luoning felt that she was cute and cute, and the relationship between her and her had a qualitative leap compared to when they first met.

She has a lot of weight in Xia Luoning's heart, and she is a good friend across classes, countries and backgrounds.

Xia Luoning felt that the greatest luck in this unexpected encounter was knowing An Qingling, but she had to make up a lie to deceive her.

She intends to claim that she has recovered most of her memories and knows that she is the daughter of a landlord's family in Xiaguo.Near the home is a large hunting ground close to the border, and she often goes hunting with relatives and friends.

Today, An Qingling came to the thatched cottage again before lunch with a basket of delicacies.

"Sister, I'm here!" She jumped in front of Xia Luoning with a warm smile, "Today we will eat corn dumplings and Kung Pao chicken."

Xia Luoning smiled slightly: "I had a premonition that you would come today, and I was right."

"Oh? So I sneezed all the way because you missed me so much?"

"..."

"You're acquiescing if you don't say anything? Haha!" An Qingling smiled and took out a plate of dumplings, a plate of chicken, and a pot of osmanthus wine.

Xia Luoning sat on a wooden pier: "Recently, you have to drink some wine with every meal. I haven't seen you like drinking so much in Anfu before."

"The mood is different." An Qingling poured wine into two cups made of bamboo.

"I used to have my dad watching over me at home, and I couldn't drink too much. Now I am the mother of a country, and no one controls me. I can do whatever I want to be happy."

Xia Luoning said gently: "It's good if you live happily, and I'm happy for you."

An Qingling used the serving chopsticks to fill her bowl with food: "What about my sister? What plans do you have for your future?"

Xia Luoning took the opportunity to say: "I just wanted to tell you that recently I have repeatedly dreamed of some familiar and unfamiliar scenes and characters. Maybe that is what I experienced before I lost my memory."

"According to the dream, I may be from the Xia Kingdom, and my home is in a place with a large forest on the border."

"Maybe I was injured when I went hunting with my relatives and friends one day, so I don't know why I appeared in Huacheng, but I still can't confirm my identity, and I don't know the names of my parents."

An Qingling didn't have as much appetite as before: "Sister, are you leaving?"

Xia Luoning nodded: "If possible, I hope you can give me a pass card and send a driver to take me to the gate tower near the border between the two countries."

"If I can go home smoothly and find my relatives, I will definitely write to you to tell you, and I can also send you rare treasures in return for taking care of me during these days."

An Qingling remained silent.

Xia Luoning asked softly: "A Ling, don't you want your sister to return to her parents as soon as possible?"

An Qingling said sincerely: "Of course Ah Ling hopes that my sister's wish will come true, but I am very reluctant to part with you. I don't know when I will see you again this time. I am a little sad."

Xia Luoning also had a faint sadness of parting: "In fact, I also miss you, but we meet everywhere in life, as long as we are destined to each other and work hard, there will be a time to meet again."

"My sister can't stay in a foreign country forever and make her relatives worry and anxious. I hope Ah Ling can understand."

An Qingling drank a few glasses of wine in a depressed mood.

Xia Luoning: "Are you unhappy just because I'm leaving?"

An Qingling said sullenly: "This is the main reason, and the bamboo is also going back to the beach."

Xia Luoning: "Then shall we go to Haifu to say goodbye to them this afternoon?"

An Qingling looked at the blindfolded white silk scarf on her face, and asked, "Sister, do you really want to heal your eyes?"

"Of course, sister's biggest wish right now is to restore the light and bring back her family."

An Qingling thought while eating, but didn't speak any more.

Xia Luoning felt that she was in a normal mood, so she didn't ask her if she could help her leave Huaguo.

After the meal, An Qingling took Xia Luoning for a walk in the woods and chatted.

"Sister, the new king of Xia Kingdom is more targeted at our Hua Kingdom than the old king, and the emperor is also full of blood and just wants to fight, so this world will become very turbulent in the next few days."

Xia Luoning was a little sad.

An Qingling glanced at her, and said, "I decided to send you abroad personally, and ensure that you entered Xia Kingdom safely before returning to Huacheng."

Xia Luoning asked in surprise: "Are you really going to give me a ride yourself? Will the emperor agree?"

"He won't object. His mind is on Jiangshan Sheji and Xiangbi, and he won't bother me at all."

"Don't tell other people that I might be from the Xia Kingdom, I'm afraid they will get their minds twisted."

"I understand, don't worry." An Qingling said with a smile, "I also plan to take you to the sea with Zhuzi and the others to spend the last time together."

"It won't be the last." Xia Luoning said seriously, "As long as you and I die of old age in the end, then we can still see each other in the long years to come."

"No matter whether our countries are in harmony or not, you and I are Jinlan sisters for life. As long as there is a chance, I will find a way to find you and play with you."

There was a gleam of light and shadow in An Qingling's eyes.

She hooked Xia Luoning's little finger with one of her little fingers, and said, "Sister, let's pull the hook, no matter the ends of the world, even if the sea is dry and the rocks are bad, you will always love me and want to be with me."

Without thinking too much, Xia Luoning smiled and said, "Okay, my sister promises you."

An Qingling also smiled: "When I go back to the palace and pass by Haifu later, I will go tell Zhuzi that I will take you to enjoy the sea breeze."

Xia Luoning smiled and nodded: "Okay, what fresh and strange sea fish you saw on the boat, remember to share with your sister."

"I have a hunch that you will be able to see it soon." An Qingling asked hesitantly, "Sister, will you follow your parents' advice and marry someone else when you go home?"

Xia Luoning shook her head: "I don't know, I hope I can meet the person I love before my parents arrange."

An Qingling led her back to the house, looked around but couldn't find the handkerchief.

"Sister, where is the handkerchief you want to give me?"

"it's here."

Xia Luoning took out the embroidery from her clothes: "There is only one moon left and it will be finished. I will send it to you on the day we set off?"

An Qingling liked this handkerchief with blue background and white stars very much, and asked, "Sister, do you like the picture of stars accompanying the moon?"

Xia Luoning nodded with a smile, and didn't say that she had the idea because of Lin Ai.

An Qingling said mischievously: "In the past, only the black sea can see the moon. Now when I see my sister's handkerchief, I feel like I have seen the spectacle of blue sea water and white moonlight coexisting!"

Xia Luoning was very surprised, and said excitedly: "In my dream, I seem to have heard a little sister say this sentence, it's amazing."

"Really?" An Qingling secretly smiled.

Xia Luoning asked gently: "Ah Ling shouldn't be unhappy now, right?"

"No."

"That's good."

An Qingling took her arm: "Besides life and death, my sister is Ah Ling's pistachio, and I will be happy with you!"

Xia Luoning asked with concern: "Just now you seemed to say, who is the emperor's thoughts on and he doesn't bother to care about you?"

An Qingling complained to her: "Ding Huanxiang climbed into Zhao Yize's bed long before I got married, and said she was pregnant shortly after I entered the palace."

"The emperor was very happy. He immediately accepted her as a concubine and said that if she gave birth to twins, he would make her a noble concubine or empress. She will be equal to me. Damn it!"

Xia Luoning was a little distressed, and said displeasedly: "I heard that you were burned and disfigured before, not only did the emperor not have any suspicions, but he also canonized you as a queen, thinking that he has deep affection for you and is a good man worth entrusting for life. "

"I didn't expect him to be sorry for you long ago. Fortunately, I once sighed that it is your luck to marry him."

An Qingling smiled slightly: "Don't worry about me, I have no love for him, it's just a good brother who married for the benefit of the family."

"He can find someone who truly loves each other. I would like to bless him, and I don't want to care about his empathy."

Xia Luoning asked suspiciously: "For the benefit of the family? Do you really have no affair with him?"

An Qingling decided to confess to her: "Before I met the person I liked, I was really willing to be a husband and wife with him. Later, I also had to marry him for the sake of my family and country."

"The Kingdom of Flowers is declining day by day. The emperor's grandfather is a foolish monarch who favors treacherous people, and the late emperor is a tyrant. I hope that I can be the emperor's virtuous helper and do things for the benefit of the country and the people when necessary."

"Becoming the queen, my father and brother and some talented clansmen can be promoted to ranks, gain the right to speak in the court, and weaken the influence of the treacherous officials left by the previous generation."

"Don't think that I just like to play around all day long. In fact, I understand righteousness and love my country very much. When I need me, I will give everything I have."

"I also hope that after becoming the mother of a country, I can do more things that are beneficial to the improvement of women's status, so that I can protect anyone I want to protect."

"This is what my mother expects from me, and I don't want to disappoint her."

Xia Luoning was moved and said, "I am very similar to you in this respect."

An Qingling: "Then if the two countries go to war, wouldn't you and I easily become enemies?"

Xia Luoning: "Fighting for the country does not mean that we are sworn enemies. I will not hurt you, but will protect you."

An Qingling curled the corners of his mouth and did not express his opinion.
