Remnant King's Concubine

Chapter 58
"Yunyao..." She stopped involuntarily and looked at him from afar.

"I'll be fine." He said, very calm in the shadow of swords and swords, except for the tension caused by her.

Ji Liangruo calmed down as he looked at the swords stabbing wildly in the air.If you go by yourself, it will only cause trouble, why don't you just watch him here, just watch him...

A figure galloped down from the roof, and following the sharp bird call, a sword stabbed out. The man in black was overwhelmed, and everyone took the opportunity to rush up and restrain him.

"My lord! The eagle has been caught!" The guard who helped a lot in the end knelt on the ground, holding up a big screaming and flapping bird.

Dong Yue suddenly fell to the ground, Ji Liangruo glanced back, and knew that it was the eagle she sent the message to.

Qin Yunyao looked at the man in black who was hit by nearly ten swords on the ground, and said to the guard: "Bring it here and show it to me."

"Yes!" The guard immediately stepped forward.

Mo Yan put away the sword and asked someone to hold the lamp.

Dongyue got up, dragged Ji Liangruo, and helped her walk over.When he got closer, he happened to see Qin Yunyao take a small bamboo tube from the owl's leg.

He unplugged the plug on the bamboo tube and pulled out the paper roll inserted inside.Unrolling the scroll, he narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly.

Dongyue pinched Ji Liangruo's arm tightly with both hands, and Ji Liangruo hissed in pain.He heard it and looked up at them: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay!" Ji Liangruo patted Dong Yue's hand and rubbed his arm.

When Qin Yunyao saw it, anger flashed in his eyes.He clenched the note in his hand, and handed the owl to the guard: "Put it in the dungeon with the assassin, and don't throw it away! Otherwise, come and see me!"

"Yes!" The guard took the owl, and a group of people set up the man in black on the ground and left.

Ji Liangruo knelt down and asked him, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." He approached her, touched her face with his hand, and let her feel his warmth.Then he raised his eyes and glanced at Dongyue who was standing behind.

Ji Liangruo was slightly startled, remembering what she said to Dongyue in the morning.Looking back, she saw her standing there expressionless, obviously seeing through that he was lying to her.

Qin Yunyao withdrew his hand: "Go back to your room, I will rest at your place tonight."

Back in the room, Ji Liangruo told him his hidden worries, and he comforted him: "She doesn't dare to make a move tonight—there are people guarding outside, and if she makes a move, she will admit that she is the spy, and I can deal with her. Tomorrow you Keep an eye on her, don't let her spread the news into the palace."

Ji Liangruo nodded and lay down in his arms.He kissed her and hugged her to sleep.

It was only in the early morning of the next day that he saw that there was a red rope around her neck, and he stretched out his hand to pull it out to see.It was too late for her to stop, so she could only expose the jade pendant to the air.

He stared blankly, and she breathed nervously.

What if he forgets?
His eyes moved to her face, and there was a dark light in his secretive eyes: "Where did this come from? I haven't seen you wearing it before."

She moved her lips, unable to speak.Forgot...how could I forget?What he said was so solemn at the time, and it was something he had taken from himself. Isn't the words important and the things not important?Even though it's been nine years, it shouldn't be completely unimpressive.

He held the jade pendant and turned it over for a closer look: "It's a good thing..." He fixed his eyes on her, seemed to be smiling, but didn't seem to be smiling, "Isn't it?"

Three words, so soft that you can't guess your emotions.

is not it?
She smiled suddenly, looked at him and nodded: "Yes..."

"Why didn't I see you wearing it before?" He asked.

"When I got it on the first day, I wore it for a day... no, it was half a day, and then I put it under the box and pressed it. I really don't want to take it out to see."

"why?"

"So what?" she said sadly, "He told me not to forget what he said that day. I wanted to remember it for the rest of my life, and believed that he would do what he said. But the next moment... I saw him... ..."

She choked up, shook her head and said: "I dropped an agate on the bottom of the lotus pond in the deep palace. At that time, I won't trust people so foolishly."

This sounds a bit inexplicable.

He was silent for a long time, then loosened the jade pendant, and the jade pendant hit her chest, matching her heartbeat.

"Why are you wearing it again now?"

"Occasionally take it out to look at it, and recall memories." She paused, and added, "The moment I got the jade pendant. That person is always like a fairy in a dream..."

"Cough—" He couldn't help choking.

She lowered her head, stared at the jade pendant on her chest, and continued: "I've never seen a man look so good in red... Later he got married, and he also wore red, and he was no longer as graceful and outstanding as before. I think, his whole life I'm afraid it was the most beautiful at that time, and I will miss it the most...at least that's how it is in my heart."

He looked at her: "Nostalgia? If someone else appears in front of you, you don't have to be nostalgic, right?"

"At that moment, you must miss it." She smiled faintly, "Some people, every bit of it, must be remembered, let alone the first moment? The mood at that time is unique."

He was silent and stopped breathing, then he sighed, put his hands behind his head, and leaned against the head of the bed: "I liked her once, she was innocent at that time, among a group of cousins, she was the closest to me, and she didn't even think about it. Who is different from who? After the age of Jiji, probably my aunt began to worry about her marriage, and she finally understood the difference between a concubine and a concubine, and the difference between being gentle and rebellious. In terms of birth, that position naturally belongs to the third brother; The character and ability must belong to the second brother. In short, there will never be my day. Therefore, after a period of ambiguity, she resolutely broke off the relationship with me... As for why she entangled in turn, I wonder I don’t have the heart to investigate.”

He looked at her: "I am such a person, you are mine, and I will treat you with all my heart and soul. If you abandon me, don't expect me to be nostalgic."

She stretched out her hand to hold the jade pendant, letting it iron in her palm.

"At that time, I really liked you and wanted to wait for you to grow up."

Her hands trembled, and her eyes were moist.

"When the Empress Dowager bestowed the marriage, I was very happy." He sat upright, with his hands naturally hanging on the quilt, "There is someone like me in the palace, and I found out that he went to your room at night just before we got married..."

It turned out that the sneer outside the window was not an auditory hallucination.

"I've been looking forward to it for a month... No, it can be said that I've been looking forward to it for nine years—" He clenched his hands into fists, "Do you know how I felt at that time?"

The jade pendant fell from her hand, and she threw herself on him suddenly: "I'm sorry..."

He hugged her, turned over and pressed her under him, and looked at her seriously: "Ji Liangruo, remember, I've never treated a woman like this before, except you."

"I will remember."

He pressed her chest and the jade: "I'll wear it from now on."

"how about you?"

He kissed her and got out of bed.She got up to look, and saw him pick up the clothes on the wheelchair, below were the belt and the accessories on the belt, the jade pendant, and the purse.

He took the purse and opened it, walked over with something from it, and showed her the palm of his hand.

She smiled when she saw it, and reached out to take the wooden pendant with her name engraved on it.

"I've only been wearing it for ten years and I came to you, and it's been almost ten years." She stroked the words on it.

He leaned over and said, "I really don't want to understand, why is it called Liangruo and not Qingquan? Look at the words on it, it should be called that name."

"My mother said that it was originally called Qingquan. I was still a baby. She had nothing to do to write my name. She found that the word Qingquan had too many gestures. If I were to learn my own name when I first learned to write, wouldn't it be too troublesome? Then Just resolutely changed it to Liangruo for me!"

He was silent for a while, and asked her, "Do you believe it?"

She shook her head: "I don't believe it, but I don't ask too much. I think it has something to do with my father? I never know who my father is..." Speaking of this, she remembered that her mother never mentioned it, and remembered that Ruji heard her surname When the reaction, simply do not want to.

"Put it on for me." Seeing her melancholy, he diverted her thoughts, "I wore it on my body before. I took it off because I wanted to marry you, in case you would forget it, so that you could remember it yourself."
