Beauty and Beauty: Adopted Daughter Becomes Concubine

Chapter 17 The Dilemma and the Third Wish (2)
"It's hot, the princess should drink something, you wait here for the servant, the servant will come as soon as he goes." She turned around and left without waiting for her to speak again.

Lian Yingtong didn't think too much, just wandered around with nothing to do.

Hearing Murong Yuchi's tone, it really seems that he came to practice for Xiao Yuanxi, and asked her to call Xiao Chongyuan's uncle, she is only a niece in name, where did she come from.

She was a little bored, walking aimlessly along the lush path.

A burst of sad Qiang flute sound, like weeping and complaining, came from not far away.Inside the gazebo, there was a tall and lonely figure in a gray cloak, with his back to her, and the sound of the flute was coming out of his hand.

She stood still and listened to the sound of the flute. After a while, the sound of the flute stopped, and then her three souls and seven souls, which had been wandering outside, re-injected into her body.

With heavy footsteps, as if bound by iron chains and dragging her, Lian Yingtong walked towards the gazebo step by step. Just as she stepped into the gazebo, the figure standing in front of her slowly turned towards her.

He almost held his breath, afraid that what he saw was just a hallucination, and that the slightest noise would disappear immediately.

Bai Yuguan tied up her long, raven-colored hair, revealing a perfectly contoured face, with deep features, thick eyebrows and deep locks, and emerald green eyes that were as bright and clear as before.

Just looking at it at a glance, it seems that you will be immersed in the blue waves.

"Tongtong." He said, his voice was familiar, but there was no deliberate indifference in the beginning.

Lian Yingtong was stunned, she heard her heart stop for a moment, and then beat fast, one after another, as if it was about to jump out of her mouth.Her throat was tight, and the name was extremely bitter in her mouth, she didn't dare to say it easily.

He stretched out his little finger and smiled at Lian Yingtong, "Tick the tick and say yes, I will wait for you to grow up and marry you as my bride. Now that I am back, Tongtong, are you still willing to marry Brother Xuanzhi?" ?"

The world was quiet, and she stared at him for a long time.

It turns out that there is really a kind of feeling in the world, and you can't make a sound until you open your mouth.

Even Yingtong's eyes were blurred with tears, she forgot to wipe them off, just looking at him with tearful eyes.

Murong Bixiao stood on one knee, cupping her porcelain-like cheeks with the palm of her hand, so carefully.

"Hitomi, I'm sorry."

Just these five words, nine years, more than 3000 days and nights, the longing in the bottom of my heart, the grievances accumulated these days, all came to my heart, she cried and asked.

"where did you go?"

"Why did you come back?"

"Why do you say you don't know me?"

"Why today..."

Murong Bixiao's cool kiss was printed on his forehead, and the faint and bitter smell of medicine entered his nostrils, his lips moved, kissing away the tears that kept falling from her eye sockets, his fingers caressed her bright red and soft lips, which was once kissed by another man forcibly .

Murong Bixiao was annoyed that he couldn't stop that scene, and then he sealed Lian Yingtong's voice with his lips, threatening to keep his breath between her lips.

She didn't expect him to kiss her so hard, she just felt that it was difficult to breathe, he entangled the tip of her tongue, sucking her sweet breath, even Yingtong had difficulty speaking, and uttered slurred scales.

"Xuan...the..."

The little hand grabbed his shirt, trying to stop him who was so forgetful of kissing.

Finally realizing that she could hardly breathe, Murong Bixiao hurriedly stopped kissing her, full of guilt, "Tongtong, I didn't mean to, I'm sorry!"

Lian Yingtong covered her mouth and gasped, staring at the man who looked at him affectionately, his face turned pale, and his eyes never left her for a moment.

Her heart was soft, but due to her previous grievances, she remained silent.

"Don't ignore me, Tongtong, I can't stand you treating me like this. I'll tell you everything you want to know, and don't talk to me, okay? Tongtong?" Murong Bixiao begged her.

Finally, she nodded in agreement with him.

Murong Bixiao's expression was a little relaxed, he wanted to hug her and stand up, but when he accidentally touched the wound, he groaned in pain.

"What's wrong with you?" She stretched out her hand to help him, worried.

He smiled, "It's an old illness, it's fine."

Lian Yingtong recalled that he was not in good health in the past, and his complexion has always been unsightly. On a midsummer day, he was still wearing a cloak.

"I'm going to see the doctor."

He pulled her back, "I just want you to stay with me for a while, okay?" Murong Bixiao couldn't stop coughing as he said that, he was indeed suffering from a serious old illness, and when he coughed, his wound hurt badly. Fortunately, he was wearing dark clothes, and for a while Half will not be easy to spot.

Missing her, meeting at last, no matter how painful it was, Murong Bixiao endured it.

"Okay, I'll accompany you. But if you are in severe pain, you must see a doctor."

He agreed, took her hand and sat down together, "There's not much time, just listen to me."

She sat upright, looking serious and ready to listen.

Not far away, a voice tsk-tsk laughed, "Uncle and niece cheating, brother Murong, how can this messy feeling get lost, you share it with my younger brother."

Xiao Yuanxi walked over with his hands behind his back, all smiles on his face, and his tone was wanton and mocking, but he couldn't hide his complacency.

Murong Bixiao mercilessly killed his subordinates, and took away a fourteen or fifteen year old woman from his brothel, with a red mark on her forehead, she was extremely beautiful.

When Xiao Yuanxi saw the portrait, he recognized Chang Ning at first sight. The scene where the uncle and niece by the pond in the palace couldn't explain clearly was enough to make him sure that the only person who could make Murong Bixiao submit was her.

Murong Bixiao protected her behind her, slapped the flute in his hand once and for all, the Xiao family's post would invite him to come no matter what, Xiaoyue blocked him for him, but Murong Bixiao insisted on this trip.

Because in Taimiao, he had already noticed that Xiao Yuanxi looked at Tongtong strangely. If Xiao Yuanxi failed to win him over, he would definitely find out who the woman he took away was. Few people could easily forget Tongtong after seeing him.

Presumably Xiao Yuanxi guessed that he had an unusual relationship with Tongtong, and wanted to use this to restrain him.

"Chang Ning, we can't be a husband and wife, but we have fulfilled the relationship between you and your uncle, how can you thank me?" Xiao Yuanxi smiled and looked at her constantly.

Murong Bixiao fell in love with his niece, and the current emperor seems to be quite interested in her niece, Murong's men's preferences are really different.

No wonder my sister doesn't like Chang Ning. The 15-year-old girl has not lost her childishness, but she can easily attract the attention of men. Even he, a veteran of the show, can't help thinking of her.

"You keep talking nonsense, be careful that my uncle will chop off your head!" Lian Yingtong gave him a blank look, she hated Xiao Yuanxi before.

"If the emperor knows that the two of you have an affair, I don't know whose head will be lost first." Xiao Yuanxi said confidently, "Brother Murong, my younger brother sincerely forms an alliance with you, and my younger brother fulfills his wish. There are benefits."

Murong Bixiao smiled and shook his head, "Your majesty dislikes people forming cliques for personal gain. You can tell your majesty about this king and Chang Ning. This king will also tell you about those things. At worst, you will fight to the death and the net will be broken. Hundreds of people in the Xiao family will be killed." Yukou will be buried with me, and the road to Huangquan will not be lonely." As he spoke, he squeezed Lian Yingtong's hand tightly, and she also squeezed tightly in response to him.

"For the sake of a woman, can you give up hundreds of thousands of troops?" Xiao Yuanxi took a deep breath, seeing Murong Bixiao's expression didn't look like he was joking.

Murong Bixiao led Lian Yingtong down the gazebo with a composed expression, passed by Xiao Yuanxi, and warned in a cold voice, "I hate being blackmailed the most, Xiao Yuanxi, if you don't stay away from Nanming within three days, I will The king will surely kill you, if you don’t believe me, you can try it!”

Xiao Yuanxi kept silent and his eyes were vicious. Seeing the two walking away, he called a confidant and whispered a few words.

Thinking of Chang Ning's disdainful eyes, but happily attached to Murong Bixiao's side.

Xiao Yuanxi sneered and snapped off a delicate flower, "Chang Ning, I will destroy you sooner or later!"

Murong Bixiao took her back to the place where the Xiao Mansion had arranged for her to take a nap, and the maid who had served her just now was waiting for them.

"I'm afraid I won't have time to answer your question today. Let's meet again. Remember that you will stay in the palace these few days and wait for news from me." Murong Bixiao urged her repeatedly.

"Well, I will."

"I'm leaving first." He looked at her reluctantly for a long time, and couldn't help but hug her tightly again, "Tongtong, give me some more time, and I will take you out of Nanming soon."

Reluctant to let go of his warm embrace, she nodded vigorously, "I'll wait for you to take me away, and I will follow you no matter where."

"Next time we meet, you have to tell me an answer." Before leaving, he had already started to miss her.

"What answer?" She didn't respond.

"Will you marry me?"

"If you dare to lie to me and don't take me away, I will never tell you the answer!" She replied with flushed cheeks, but stared into his eyes.

"wait for me."

Murong Bixiao spoke softly for the last time, and then his figure gradually disappeared into the night.

She was in a daze, she couldn't believe what happened today, Lian Yingtong lay on the bed, gradually felt drowsy, closed her eyes and fell asleep, not paying attention to the servant girl who waited on her for a long time before leaving.

"Xiaoyue, you did a good job today." Murong Bixiao praised the woman who waited on him to apply the medicine in a building in Xiao's residence.

The ordinary face and eyes are beautiful, "Thank you, my lord." She lowered her head and packed the medicine bottle.

"Why don't you recognize Tongtong?"

After tidying up, she lifted off the human skin mask on her face, her face was clear and refined, and said lightly, "It's not yet, I'm afraid Tongtong won't be able to accept it. After all, Lian Yingyue died more than a year ago."

"This king has wronged you."

"Xiaoyue doesn't feel wronged, she just wants to help the lord achieve his wish." She helped Murong Bixiao to lie down, and served him nimbly and dexterously. "My lord was seriously injured. Tonight, the emperor is also in the Xiao residence. My lord should be more careful."

Before she went out, Murong Bixiao called to her, "Your intention of blocking Xiao Mansion's post, I understand. You are afraid that people will find out that I am injured, and you will be suspected of going to the Taimiao. I will write down your thoughts. Leave the trivial matters to the servants, and you don't have to wait on the king."

"Xiaoyue's life was given by the prince, and Xiaoyue is willing to serve him." She didn't turn her head, but her shoulders trembled slightly.

Murong Bixiao's cold voice sounded again, "You are Tongtong's older sister, I don't need anything in return for saving you. You take the risk to get the road map for Xiao Yuanxi to go to the desert, and you leave the following tasks to Xiao Cheng." .”

"Then what does the prince want Xiaoyue to do?" She seemed to understand something and turned around slowly, with a sad smile on her lips.

Looking at Lian Yingyue whose facial features were three to four points similar to her pupils, Murong Bixiao's voice was cold and without a trace of warmth, "This king will tell you Murong Yuchi's preferences one by one, all you have to do is get close to him. Find a way to get him to pay attention to you."

Lian Yingtong didn't want to go to the banquet at the Xiao Mansion, but Murong Yuchi was in such a good mood that she couldn't find any reason to refuse.

During the banquet, Murong Yuchi came here, and really surprised all the officials.

But seeing Murong Yuchi's joyful appearance, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the Xiao family prepared various skill performances, which were brilliant, even Murong Yuchi was gradually attracted, and the atmosphere became harmonious.

Lian Yingtong sat on the side behind Murong Yuchi, not far away sat Xuanzhi and Xiao Yuanxi in turn, she tried not to look at Xuanzhi too much, but raised her chin to Xiao Yuanxi indifferently.

"Did Xiao Yuanxi offend you?" During the dinner, Murong Yuchi suddenly turned to ask her.

She was taken aback, she really didn't understand that Murong Yuchi was so absorbed in watching juggling, yet still noticed her.

"I hate him." Lian Yingtong replied honestly. For the first time, she felt that Murong Yuchi did one thing right, which was to drive Xiao Yuanxi to the desert. Although she didn't approve of Murong Yuchi's murder, Xiao Yuanxi had better live his life. It would be good if they were all in the desert and could never come back.

Then she recalled what Murong Bixiao said to her, Xuanzhi, how long will we have to wait before we meet again?She couldn't wait to know the stories about him all these years.

Also, he said that he would take her away from Nanming, and he asked her if she would still marry him?

When we meet again, he waits for her answer, to marry or not to marry?

A hint of sweetness spread in her heart, her mind was swaying, she was out of her mind, a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her lips unconsciously, the smile immersed in longing, pure and flawless, but the most touching.

Not far away, Murong Bixiao was also looking at her, with a pure and beautiful smile, which firmly attracted his attention and he couldn't move his eyes away.The fiery trees and silver flowers are never in the night, but she can't match the dazzling brilliance of her clever smile.

Throughout life, the glitz is like a dream, and there will always be someone who will regard her as his life.

Her smile was too dazzling, even if Murong Weichi didn't look at it, he could still feel it.Not far away, another line of sight is also gazing at her side affectionately, one reveals her true feelings inadvertently, and the other crazily entangles her without hesitation.

Murong Yuchi stared at the lively jugglers in front of him, couldn't help nodding and chuckling, his pupils became darker and deeper.

Before the banquet was over, Murong Yuchi was drunk, his face was reddish, and he smelled of alcohol.

The emperor left the table, and everyone dispersed.

He was too drunk to go back to the palace, so he had to stay in Xiao's mansion.

Zong Ting helped him to lie down, looked back at Lian Yingtong who was following him, and stopped talking.

"Master Zong, what do you want to say?"

"Little princess, I'm going to serve the emperor sober soup, please take care of it, the emperor seldom gets drunk, if you lose your temper later, you should follow him more."

Zong Ting wanted to say this for a long time, but she had become a habit every time she didn't follow Murong Yuchi.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of him."

He was so drunk, how could he lose his temper?
Lian Yingtong guarded the sleeping Murong Yuchi, she could be lost in thought during the noisy banquet, it was quiet here, she was lost in thought quickly, and the appearance of Murong Bixiao appeared in front of her eyes.

Think about her arguing to marry him in the future when she was six years old. She was young and ignorant at that time, and she was bold enough to express her heart directly.At one point, she was worried that he would not remember this promise, even her Lian Yingtong.

Fortunately, he remembered, he did not forget.

Sweet in her heart, she carefully took out the purse she was wearing next to her body, and rubbed the Xuan character on the purse again, Xuanzhi was Murong Bixiao, the prince of Minyue, and the younger brother of Murong Yuchi.

Murong Yuchi...

During the sweet talk about Murong Bixiao all night, I thought of him for no reason.

Lian Yingtong was stunned, and turned her head to look at the person sleeping on the bed involuntarily.

His eyes touched a pair of dark phoenix eyes, which were so deep that they couldn't see the bottom.

There was no trace of joking and smiling, it was so cold that there was no temperature at all, the chill of freezing to death directly penetrated into her heart quickly, and even Yingtong's whole body shivered.

"You like Murong Bixiao." One sentence hit the point, straightforward and simple enough to shock.

Murong Yuchi was very thoughtful, she had never been able to figure it out and was not good at guessing, so when he spoke directly, Lian Yingtong was the easiest to understand, but unexpectedly when he asked straightforwardly, she was at a loss for words and didn't know how to answer.

His face was flushed with the smell of alcohol, and the drunken Murong Yuchi was coquettish and coquettish, and his drunkenness added to his chilling indifference.

"Uncle..." She slowly lowered her head and didn't look at him, Zong Ting told her to obey him, it really made sense, such a Murong Wei Chi did not obey him, I really don't know what could happen.

The two were silent for a while, and they confronted each other in silence. Lian Yingtong was no match for him, and was quickly defeated.

"I'll go see if Mr. Zong's hangover soup has arrived." She made an excuse and moved outside.

After only walking a few steps, I heard Murong Yuchi coughing suddenly, and when I looked again, he bent down from coughing and couldn't stop panting.

"Uncle!" She turned back in a hurry, and raised her hand to help him.

Murong Yuchi easily pushed her away with a wave of his arm, even Yingtong didn't know that he would do this, he staggered a few steps backwards, the old calf just happened to hit the corner of the bed, she burst into tears of pain, but she just secretly gasped and endured Did not cry out.

Just like that, she was still worried about Murong Yuchi, "What's wrong with you? What's wrong?"

Something was really wrong with Murong Yuchi, his cough intensified, and many small red spots appeared on the arm exposed outside the cuff.

She was taken aback, and dragged her injured leg over, "Let me see!"

He knocked her hand down, stared at her with dark eyes, and asked word by word, "Do you really like him?"

"Let's talk later, okay, let me see what's wrong with you?" She was worried about his illness, but he was relentless about this issue. Even if she didn't like Murong Bixiao, the person she liked in this life would not be Murong Yuchi , he is the one she can never love.

"Don't let me ask you a third time." He was short of breath, and grabbed her chin with one hand, Murong Yuchi had no patience for the answer to this question at all.

In fact, Lian Yingtong's expression had already told him the answer he wanted.

Murong Yuchi's face was tense and expressionless, the hand pinching her chin became more and more forceful, her painful little face turned white, she closed her eyes and opened them again, she stretched out her hand to hold his hand tightly, the red spots spread very quickly, in just a short while , the back of his hand was also red, and his neck.Cheek, that face that charms all living beings is also hard to escape.

He looked very uncomfortable, coughing and panting continuously, frowning and enduring the pain.

The mist gradually filled the beautiful eyes, forcing myself to face his gaze, "Yes."

The soft and sweet voice fell in his ears, Murong Yuchi felt the temperature of his body subside little by little, he let go suddenly, and Lian Yingtong fell to the ground.

She hurriedly got up, and whispered to Murong Yuchi, who was suddenly downcast: "I'm going to find Mr. Zong, don't move around!"

He suddenly became ill and had to seek medical treatment from a doctor, but if she didn't answer, Murong Yuchi would never let go.

Even Yingtong was not good at lying, even if she lied, she couldn't escape Murong Yuchi's eyes, not to mention that it was a fact that she and Murong Bixiao were together, but no one knew about it yet.

"He is your uncle in name, why are you not afraid of being gossiped?"

"I like him."

"why do you like it?"

"I just like him, no reason."

"What about me?"

"He is different from my uncle. I can't like my uncle, and my uncle can't love me. We can only have one relationship in this life, uncle and niece."

Murong Yuchi smiled teasingly, "Tongtong, do you think I will allow you to like Murong Bixiao?" A layer of frost covered the enchanting face in an instant.
