Qingchuan History

Chapter 886

In the early morning of entering Yindong, the sky was not as bright as the previous few days, with gray clouds piled up, and fine rain soon fell.

Ruan Zhong has been riding in the car for the past few days, his complexion is better than the day he just saw him, but his movements are becoming more and more sluggish.

Ruan Xueyin took his pulse three times a day, but he didn't feel that his condition was getting worse. When asked about his feelings, he only said that he was weak and couldn't use his hands and feet.

It is inconvenient to go on the road, and Ruan Xueyin has not identified the two herbs that Shangguan concubine changed for the time being, so it is just a matter of hearing and asking.

If the battle is over, they can all survive.

When it was still a hundred miles away from Suoning, the rain gradually lightened and the progress slowed down.She clearly saw the exchange of eyes between Ruan Zhong and Gu Xinglang, she somewhat guessed, her heart was rippling, and she sat silently to collect her breath.

The line stopped completely, and Gu Xinglang got off the car straight away.Ruan Xueyin looked at the moment the car door opened, and saw rain and fog enveloping gray water—like a shadow pool, named for its clearness, when the sky is sunny, it is shockingly blue, and it can reflect people brighter than a mirror.

There are many people by the water, they are all Lian's sons, and they are guarding a woman.

If you look closely, you will know that it is not a guardian.guard.

"Is there not one of her people left?"

Ruan Zhong was still in the car, and he also watched Gu Xinglang walk towards Duan Xirun, "It should. She was alone when she was sent. But the loss of Shangguan's concubine is not small. I heard that it was very tragic, and both sides will suffer."

"Shangguan concubine is going to Cangwu."

Ruan Zhong shook his head, "I've only been out for more than a month, and I know very little. I'm afraid it's not as accurate as your guess."

In the gray sky, the drizzle had stopped, leaving only fog, so that Gu Xinglang's back gradually became blurred.

Duan Xirun's face became even more blurred.Not only Ruan Xueyin and Ruan Zhong who were far away in the car, but also Gu Xinglang, who thought he was getting very close, and when he first saw that face, he also felt strange.

Speechless for a while.

Duan Xirun has been staring at him since he got off the car, until now, seeing that he didn't even have an opening line, he was stunned for a while and then laughed,

"She told me about my crimes back and forth. So much so that you hate me now, and you don't want to open your mouth. If this is the case, why do you come to meet me?"

Gu Xinglang only knew about the situation in Mianzhou, and when he heard the words, he felt strange and remained silent.

"It's a pity that I didn't drink that wine at the Shangguan banquet. In fact, if Shen Ji didn't come, or came late, she wouldn't be able to pass that test. There is also Princess An, who can relieve the phoenix cry. After all, fate is good. In terms of luck, I am not as good as her .”

Gu Xinglang's mind went blank for a moment.

Suddenly understanding which year she was talking about, her expression changed suddenly, "Is it you?"

Duan Xirun was stunned, and understood after a while, her whole face seemed to be crying, smiling, relieved, and resentful, "She still hasn't said it! She hasn't said it yet! Is it necessary?" After a while, "Do I need you to pretend to be a good person again?" !"

The last sentence was so loud that Ruan Xueyin could hear it.

Compared with the Mingluan Palace in the past and the Mianzhou Medicine Garden a few days ago, this is really nothing, and Ruan Xueyin didn't respond.

On the contrary, Ruan Zhong's face suddenly showed a look of predation, "It's so evil, but it's still justifiable."

Gu Xinglang on the other end was originally due to the sudden strangeness, so Fang didn't speak immediately, but at this moment, he really didn't want to talk to her anymore, so he stared at the misty water for a moment.

What Duan Xirun is most incapable of dealing with is the other party's silence, especially his silence.

The ashes-like heart is quieter than the ashes, and it turned up again and again. It is not as intense as before, but it is still unwilling to escape. I still want to ask questions and hear an answer.

"I always want to ask you, if she hadn't come to Qi Palace, she would never have appeared in front of you in this life—"

"No." Gu Xinglang looked at Shui Se, resolutely.

"You didn't even listen to my question!"

"If she hadn't come to Qi Palace, if she hadn't appeared in front of me in this life, then I wouldn't be able to love others as much as I love her, and never in this life." He looked at her again, very solemnly.

"You liar! If there is no her, you still have to choose someone to accompany you, and you will eventually—"

"Without her, I would always be the king of Jing Hong's dynasty, but I would not be Gu Xinglang. I would be like the kings of all generations, with the rain and dew on my back. , to love a woman forever. Because of her, I will."

Duan Xirun originally had thousands of questions.

But this passage is too firm, and it hurts too much.

"I don't believe it. I don't believe it." She murmured, "What about Mrs. Yu, you don't know, you—"

"I never thought of vacating the harem for Wan Ling, or changing the situation. This is the difference." There is no need to tell her more, he is completely tired of this endless dragging.

Duan Xirun thought she would cry.

Actually not.I just feel that the few dead grasses left in my heart have also been pulled out, and the eternal winter is coming, and it is difficult to see the spring again.

"You mean, before you saw her, you took care of us only out of the responsibility of the monarch, for the sake of the current situation."

"good."

"You never liked me, let alone,"

like.She couldn't speak.The words about Ruan Xueyin just now were so deafening that the word turned into a sharp thorn, which could pierce her heart at any time.

"Yes."

This is by no means the virtue of a gentleman.He shouldn't embarrass a woman face to face like this.For several years, although he has been resolute in his actions, he has never spoken harsh words, and this is also the reason.

——It has to be said.It's the end, and her repeated vicious attacks on Ruan Xueyin really made him very angry, so he must tell the truth.

Duan Xirun laughed again, out loud, unscrupulously, it didn't match her delicate complexion at all - that face was older than before, her eyes were sharper than before, in fact she wasn't delicate anymore.

Everyone has gone their own way due to time and the current situation, but Duan Xirun's path has become narrower and narrower, which is the most regrettable.

And she clearly stands at the beginning of an extremely wide road, which is the throne of a country, but if she is less extreme, opens her eyes, and looks far, it will not end there.

But people are different.Fate loves to play jokes on everyone, and one of them is to put the right person in the wrong place, or vice versa.

"I knew it a long time ago." She finally stopped laughing, returning to the calmness at the beginning, calmer, and her mind was completely broken, "I know it clearly, but I still want to hear it from you. Is she so good?"

Gu Xinglang looked at her unreal face.

The mood was also concentrated, and he said very calmly: "You just said that she is lucky. In my opinion, she is far inferior to you. She lost her mother at birth, was disgusted by her father, and went to the mountains alone to learn art, and the teacher was cold-hearted. She came Qi Gong is a pawn just like you, and it was later proved that not only her father, but also her teacher used her as a pawn, half of her life was a deception."

"But you love her." Duan Xirun interrupted very lightly, "You put her on top of your heart and never change it in your life. All of us who are luckier than her can't compete. She was bad luck for half her life, but she also brought great happiness transport."

"She didn't rely on luck." Gu Xinglang's eyes became gentle, "I only recently realized that there may be unreasonable love at first sight in this world, but there is absolutely no unreasonable white prime minister to accompany you. From Qi Gong to Yun From water, to Suoning, to Mianzhou, she relied on herself for several adventures. She never really favored me, never asked me for it, and even swallowed a lot of money to let me make the best decision to deal with the situation. It's bitter to complain. Her good luck is earned by herself. One-third of a person's good luck is determined by nature, and there are still seven parts that must be earned by herself. I will never meet such a person again, you guys ,neither."

He couldn't and didn't want to say anything more to anyone.About the soul bond between her and him, and the mutual support at every moment in the past five years-he didn't hold an umbrella when it rained in the past, and used the rain to temper his mind; There is her, and she has been silently holding an umbrella for him.

He will never meet such a person again.These words that are not said to anyone are the complete explanation of this sentence.

"How do you know that we can't do what she does?"

"If you could do it, you wouldn't be standing here right now."

Duan Xirun was stunned.

"If she had won the throne, she would spare no effort to strengthen the country and mediate the current situation. She would cherish this hard-won opportunity, and never let love or resentment block her vision or bind her hands and feet. Qingchuan has been in Qingchuan for more than three hundred years and has been in several dynasties. Replacement, how many women have won the position of monarch? Only you, Duan Xirun, only you! You have let down this opportunity to rewrite the course of history and reshape the world, and you have gone like this! This opportunity was also given to you by her. She gave it to you, but you discarded it like a shoe, and they are still starting from the women's class, so that more girls in the world can climb up from the bottom little by little. Jingtingge has been in business for ten years, but it is only as good as a country. No official name, no position until now! But you are already the king."

He hadn't intended to say this to her.

At this point in the conversation, Ruan Xueyin felt similar to when Ruan Xueyin was annoyed.

Some truths are really hard to tell.

"But these are not what I like or want. That winter in Mingluan Hall, I told her the same, you can't—"

"But do you have any other choice?" Gu Xinglang lost his patience, "Can you just step down from that seat and give it to whoever you want, and then it doesn't matter what the future of Bai Guo is? You can't, that's why Sitting there until today. Since we are all sitting, why not sit well, sit firmly on it, and open up a bright road of our own, a lot of good luck, or because of this! Do you think that what we do in half our lives is all our own Do you like it, do you want it? How can there be such a life? No one in the world has it! If you really want to take revenge, you must show your skills. At the end, it is most useless and worthless!"

Duan Xirun had never heard him say such a thing to himself.

In fact, Ruan Xueyin had said similar words a long time ago, more than once, but at that time, she never listened to it.

But at this moment, the fate is coming to an end, and the end is in front of her eyes, she suddenly understands a little bit.

Suddenly I realized what I missed in the past few years, and I could really admit that I was wrong, a big mistake.

The awakening that came too late made her fall into the abyss.

An endless fall, deeper than despair.

The wind and rain of the world turned upside down on her face, the eyes became messy and became more and more wrong, the strange bright color made Gu Xinglang unable to open his eyes.

She turned and walked towards the water.

Ruan Xueyin was in the car and couldn't see those strange bright colors, but she remembered the look in her eyes that night in Mianzhou.

She was not quite right then.When I said to Ji Wanling that "she is already crazy", it was not entirely a metaphor.

"Don't catch it yet!" Ruan Zhong shouted until Duan Xirun's skirt was knee-deep in the water, and Ruan Zhong shouted, jumped out of the car and strode over.

All the soldiers on the shore woke up and went into the water to carry people. The tranquility of the whole Zhaoying Park was suddenly broken by crazy cries:

"Let me go! Let me go! I want to find my mother! My mother will save me! Father! Father! Run'er wronged father! Run'er ruined your foundation and the Duan family! Oh, let me go! I am the queen! , who dares! I will kill you!"

She raised her face, her words were not expressive, and the tears all over her face were in the mist of water, and it was hard to tell whether it was water or tears.

The fine rain fell again.

As it got closer and closer, she shouted more and more fiercely.

Ruan Xueyin looked away and closed the car door.

The heart is clearly cold.But the hot tears couldn't stop pouring out, big and big tears fell on the skirt, and the exhaustion that hit her almost knocked her down.

For some reason, I thought of Duan Xirun's father, His Majesty Bai Jun, half leaning back on the steps of Quefei Hall, the last sentence:
See you when you return.

I also remembered that on the Yinhuang Terrace on the same day, at the end of dusk, a huge albatross gliding past, Princess An whispered before she died:
Lin Hua thanked Chunhong, too in a hurry.Helpless morning, cold rain and late wind.

Rouge tears, stay drunk, when will be heavy.People grow up and hate water.

　Happy new year babies. It's 2022, and this year will really come to an end. Thank you for traveling together. It's really an unforgettable journey of sweetness and abuse.May you all be your own umbrella holders, and meet such a person at the right time who is willing to hold an umbrella for you forever.
