046 “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)” Liu Ying
byThe night breeze blows gently, and the bamboo shadows sway.In the sound of autumn, autumn insects sing softly, lingering in the ears, and the wonderful sound is endless.
Xie Ciyan released the woman in his arms slightly, and their breaths entwined with each other on the tips of their noses. When their eyes met, the twinkling eyes first looked away. Under the dusk, the fair cheeks were dyed with little conspicuous crimson.
“Why didn’t Zhao Zhao ask me for a birthday gift?” His voice was a little teasing, “I have been preparing for a long time.”
Yan Zhaozhao turned back, but the man hadn’t moved his eyes away, and once again he ran into his deep eyes.Only this time, she didn’t look away, but looked directly into his eyes.”Isn’t it the birthday gift you prepared to bring me here?” She has never been a greedy person. She can’t be greedy and there is no one to be greedy for.For her, having someone remember her birthday is the best birthday gift.
If you are too greedy, you will be punished by God.
“Of course not.” Xie Ciyan took out a brocade box from his sleeve and put it in her hand. He raised his chin slightly and said, “Let’s see if you like your birthday gift.” This time, he was finally not a bystander who couldn’t interfere, but actually walked into the world that belonged to Yan Zhaozhao. How could he miss her birthday gift.
He had wanted to give her a birthday gift openly and openly for a long time, and this time he finally got his wish.
Yan Zhaozhao opened the brocade box, and inside was a walking stick in the shape of an albizia flower. The difference was that the stamens in the albizia flower actually emitted fluorescence like fireflies, which were particularly bright in the night. The pendant pearls seemed to have been coated with fireflies by a skilled craftsman, emitting the same beautiful light as the stamens.
She fell in love with him as soon as she saw him, and her eyes were filled with a smile of joy and satisfaction.
“Do you like it?” He took the Bu Yao from her hand and when he saw her nodding happily, his eyebrows softened a little unconsciously. He tied the Bu Yao in her bun and the Bu Yao swayed gently with her movements. The bright light made her look like a goddess in the sky.
Yan Zhaozhao raised his hand and stroked the Bu Yao in his hair. He suddenly remembered that the last time he was in the Phoenix Tower, he had also given him a Bu Yao. Both gifts were Bu Yao. Could it be that it had some other meaning?”You gave me a pacifier last time, and it’s the same this time, but what’s the meaning?”
Xie Ciyan curled her lips, but did not say the real answer, “Bu Yao Ping you.”
Probably, only he himself knew the meaning of sending her Bu Yao both times.
Because, every step of the way is given to only one person, which means the love of a lifetime.
Furthermore, rather than that unsightly Feng Chai, he wanted her to be able to wear the Bu Yao he gave her more one day.
The man in front of her had picturesque features, and his eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at her. At this moment, she felt that she was the only one in his eyes and could no longer hold anyone else.
Yan Zhaozhao’s heart became softer, and her heart gradually began to beat disobediently, like a lost and reckless deer that couldn’t find an exit and was hitting her heart randomly, intending to burst out.
Xie Ciyan didn’t know that when he looked at her like this, it would be easy to remove the defense in her heart.Emotions welled up in my heart, perhaps because I had been suppressing them for a long time. In front of the only person I could trust, I could no longer bear the indifference in front of others, and the weakness that belonged to my daughter’s family was revealed through the darkness of night.
She finally couldn’t help it, and leaned her forehead on his shoulder. Although her voice was soft, she couldn’t hide her confusion.”Do you know what happened to Concubine Yan and the guard today?”
She suddenly asked such a question, which really made Xie Ciyan stunned for a moment. After a moment, he reacted and answered truthfully: “Well, I know.” In order to achieve a great cause, it is impossible for him to not have even a little plan. The emperor has his eyes around him. Today’s incident has caused such a big commotion. He knows that he is afraid that she will be wronged, so he went there in person.
“Then did you know that Concubine Yan lost her virginity because she was framed?” At this point, Yan Zhaozhao spoke a little fast, but her voice was very low, as if she was afraid of something.
Xie Ciyan, who was aware of her emotions, patted her back with his big palm and comforted her silently, and then said, “You guessed it, I don’t know the details of the matter, I only heard the beginning and end.” Although he was not in the whirlpool of the harem, he was not unaware of the cruelty of the harem fights. There is nothing that women in the harem can’t do in order to compete for favor.
She scoffed lightly, adding a bit of desolation to her voice, “You can guess it just by listening to the beginning and the end. That proves that that person didn’t know that Yan Concubine was being framed, but he still turned a deaf ear and made her…” Yan Zhaozhao couldn’t help but clench his clothes tightly with her fingertips, feeling a little scared in her heart, “As long as that person wants to, giving a concubine after death is as easy as crushing an ant.”
It’s not that Yan Zhaozhao didn’t know that the emperor was both romantic and ruthless, but he had always been romantic in the past. There were so many concubines in the harem, and they all loved him for only three months and then abandoned them. Even if they wanted to compete for favor, they couldn’t make any big waves, and they only focused on how to maintain their favor.
Most of the concubines’ palace fights were petty fights, and the key punishment was to send them to the cold palace to live in isolation for a lifetime.This was the first time that she was truly involved in the horrific battle in the harem, and saw with her own eyes that an originally innocent person lost his life due to a conspiracy.
“If you don’t have a heart, you should have no feelings.” Xie Ciyan seemed to be speaking in a straightforward manner, as if he was a bystander who stayed away from the incident.”That person… won’t fall in love with anyone. What he loves most is only himself and the dragon chair, so how can he tolerate someone who betrays him?”
Yan Zhaozhao’s slender body trembled slightly, her teeth biting her red lower lip. After several hesitations, she finally couldn’t help but softly speak out what was in her heart, her voice as thin as a mosquito’s moan, “If… one day I end up like Yan Bi, can I still escape unharmed?”
These words are both a worry and a temptation.
Among them, she seemed to be the only one in a very passive position.She is a queen, someone else’s wife in name only, and he is a noble and powerful regent. Once the incident comes to light, if she is abandoned by the court, she will be the one who will be blamed, and he will remain unscathed and still sit in a high position.
Even if he said that he liked her, he would not dare to bet everything on him.
Yan Bin is absolutely right when she says that the most ruthless emperor’s family.
Xie Ciyan is also a member of the royal family.
“No.” The words sent a slight chill into her body, and Yan Zhaozhao felt her entire body stiffen, and even her fingertips felt cold.
Sensing the reaction of the woman in his arms, Xie Ciyan held her tighter and spoke again, his voice lower and hoarse, but full of determination.”Zhaozhao, I won’t let you fall into that situation. You are not Yan Bin, and I am not that person, so don’t put her situation in your body.”
“As long as I’m here, I will do my best to protect you.” As if thinking of something, he suddenly chuckled, “Even if I’m gone, I won’t let anyone bully you.”
If that day comes, he will remove all obstacles for her, take that person to hell with him, and give her peace for the rest of her life.
The fingertips were suddenly held in his palm, and the warm body temperature spread bit by bit, dispelling all the coldness in her body.
She didn’t know whether Xie Ciyan’s words were completely sincere.But…inexplicably, this time, she really, really wanted to…believe in him.
