The foolish prince counterattacks the concubine

Chapter 240 Goodbye Red Peach Blossom
"It's beautiful." Yes, it's really beautiful. Compared with the pink peach blossom, she likes this bloody color more, which makes people unforgettable at a glance.

Mo Ziyan held Mu Xirao's hand tightly, and he said lightly: "These flowers are the painstaking efforts of the owner of the South Garden. There are no peach blossoms in this season, but don't you think that the temperature here should be higher and warmer?" , This is because the owner of the South Garden changed the air here, so the peach blossoms will bloom."

Mu Xirao nodded, it turned out to be like this, just like they are now, the greenhouse vegetables are the same, so it is said that the peach blossoms are in full bloom for those who are destined to be fake?

"In that case, the last rumor was also false?"

At this moment, Mo Ziyan burst out laughing. After pecking Mu Xirao's red lips, he said with a low smile, "Fool."

The night is long, and the warmth between the two lingers for a long time.

The next day, early morning.

Mo Ziyan woke up early, while Mu Xirao was still soundly asleep, and he didn't want to disturb her. After getting up and changing, he quietly left the house. . "

Outside the house, Xiang Cao was already waiting outside the door. When she saw Mo Ziyan coming out of the house and was about to salute, Mo Ziyan stopped her and said, "Get up, keep your voice down, don't wake Rao'er up."

While speaking, a middle-aged man walked in front of him, who was Li Yi, the owner of the South Garden.

Li Yi stepped forward and cupped his fists: "My lord, Li Yi came to meet you yesterday, please forgive me." Li Yi's words were sincere, but how could Mo Ziyan blame him.

He helped Li Yi up, and said as he walked, "How is the matter in the army?"

Li Yi looked around before he said: "Report to the lord, everything in the army is normal."

"This king has already decided on one thing. Li Yi, you should take your soldiers to seek refuge with General Mu Mingyuan tomorrow. General Mu has been marching for many years, and he is an upright person, let alone leading troops to fight. I am also relieved to take refuge in General Mu."

Li Yi didn't expect Mo Ziyan to say such words suddenly. After he was stunned on the spot, he came back to his senses and knelt on the ground: "My lord, please think twice."

Mo Ziyan knew that Li Yi would have such an expression, he helped Li Yi up, and he said: "Li Yi, I am tired, I don't want to cheat in the court, I just want to find a quiet place to stay with Raoer lifetime."

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the high-spirited prince in the past would become what he is now, and he only wishes to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests to spend his life with the one he loves.

He clenched his hands under his clothes, and his eyes were a little dazed. He remembered that many years ago, a woman came to her and said that she was tired and wanted to live in the mountains. She asked if he could join her. He knew that she liked him, although, He also has a little love for her, but it can't match the ambition in his heart. He hopes to use his life's wisdom to help Mo Ziyan unify the six countries, so that Shi Ji will record his achievements.

I remember at that time, she said that he didn't really help Mo Ziyan, he was only doing the postscript for his own name, he was only for himself.

He told himself no, he was just for the sake of the people in the world, and wanted them to live a stable life, but one day, the prince told him that he gave up, he wanted to live a stable life, so who will tell now? For so many years, what's the point of his persistence?
His hands were trembling, his eyes hurt slightly, he raised his eyes to look at Mo Ziyan, and he murmured: "My lord, now that you have made this decision, who can tell me the meaning of my persistence for so many years. "

Mo Ziyan dared to feel a little bit unbearable. He knew that Li Yi wanted to see him unify the six countries all his life, and he would also become a hero who founded the country. In fact, he knew that Li Yi is not a person who loves vanity and covets glory and wealth. He just has his revenge, and after a hundred years, the world will remember his name.

After Li Yi finished speaking, he looked at Mo Ziyan, trying to get something out of it, but to no avail. He smiled helplessly, turned and left.

"Li Yi..." Mo Ziyan wanted to stop him, but he was interrupted by a female voice just now.

Mo Ziyan was somewhat familiar with the voice, and he looked around with surprise in his eyes: "Long Ju, how could it be you?" Didn't you leave?
He didn't say the last sentence, he asked in his heart.

Long Ju, Li Yi's childhood sweetheart, joined Li Yi in his camp many years ago, and is his right-hand man.

Long Ju smiled bitterly. Looking at Li Yi's figure, she said, "I couldn't let him go, so I came back."

Mo Ziyan looked at the clothes she was wearing, and he was surprised again: "You have been in South Garden."

"Yes, I have been pretending to be a servant girl and watching him every day in the South Garden." Speaking of this, there was a bit of pain in her eyes.

Mo Ziyan and Long Ju kept walking, and when he came to the side and sat down, he looked at Long Ju's sallow face: "Why did you tell him? Over the years, it can be seen that Li Yi has always been thinking about you, He also sent people to inquire about your whereabouts, but to no avail, I never thought that you would live in the South Garden."

Long Ju nodded, and she sighed softly: "In the past few years, I have pretended to be a servant girl and don't need to take care of my master. My life is comfortable, and I can still see him occasionally, and I am content."

Mo Ziyan shook his head. He had always known how deep Long Ju's love for Li Yi was, but he never expected that she would be able to do so even when the person she loves was by her side without stepping forward. Admit it, suppress your affection.

"Long Ju, do you regret choosing to follow me at the beginning?"

If she hadn't chosen to follow him back then, maybe she and Li Yi would have been together by now, had a baby and a daughter, and lived a peaceful life.

Long Ju shook her head, and she smiled calmly: "My lord, you are worrying too much. Without you, Li Yi and I would not be together. He has his revenge, and I will never be able to live up to his revenge." , He is not obsessed with power, he just can't let go of his wisdom and full of revenge, sometimes, he actually values ​​his life more than the prince."

Mo Ziyan nodded, he knew that what Long Ju said was right, Li Yi was indeed such a person.

"Now, my lord, what you said suddenly, he should wake up and let him be alone."

Mo Ziyan looked at the direction where Li Yi disappeared, and he suddenly said: "Long Ju, there are some things that you still have to fight for. If you don't fight, how will you know where you are in his heart?"

Long Ju was stunned, and suddenly she smiled wryly: "I saw my position clearly a few years ago."

But Mo Ziyan shook his head, patted Long Ju on the shoulder, and said, "Long Ju, feelings are something that you can't figure out by thinking about it. Now, he has nothing left, only you are left." gone."

After saying that, Mo Ziyan had already left.

Long Ju froze in place, unable to recover for a long time, only Mo Ziyan's words remained in his mind, now, he has nothing left except you, right?Does he have nothing left but me?

Seeing Mo Ziyan's leaving back, she suddenly smiled, yes, feelings are not something you can figure out by yourself, in this life, she is already doomed to be Li Yi's defeat, so why bother about that? How about a little face?Since you are defeated, let yourself be completely defeated.

Sometimes feelings are like this, knowing the result, but still want to take a gamble.

Li Yi ran into a peach grove, he sat on the ground decadently, the peach blossoms fell on his shoulders, the color was like blood, just like back then, when he couldn't cultivate red peach blossoms, the woman with a sweet smile took one A red peach blossom came to him, smiling so softly.

I still remember that time, she said: "Li Yi, look, the red peach blossom, you succeeded, it's just a pity, there is only one, but it's okay, this is a good start."

In fact, at that time, he didn't doubt it at all, because that color was exactly the color he wanted to cultivate.

He took the hand, with some disappointment in his eyes, only opened one, but after thinking about it, just like what she said, there is already a red peach blossom, which is a good start.

He sighed a little, and took her hand. At this moment, she let out a soft cry. He didn't use any force, so how could he hurt her?
"What's wrong?" he asked concerned.

She replied evasively, and quickly withdrew her hand: "It's okay."

Her expression and movements made him suspect that she was not like this usually, and she must be hiding something from him.

He took her hand and looked at the scar on her palm, he was astonished, suddenly, it turned out to be like this.

Holding this bloody peach blossom, he couldn't bear to blame her: "Fool."

Soak the peach blossom with his own blood, and then put the bloody medicine on it to get rid of the bloody smell, otherwise, he would have smelled the bloody smell long ago.

At that time, she was still afraid that he would be angry, and worried in her eyes: "Li Yi, don't be angry, I'm just, I'm just..."

At that time, he hugged her suddenly and murmured: "Thank you." Thank you for making me feel happy.

Li Yi raised his eyes, in a trance, he seemed to see that woman running towards him, he blurted out: "Ju'er."

Looking at the decadent sitting on the ground, Long Ju felt a sharp pain in her heart. She had never seen Li Yi in this way before. She walked forward slowly and called softly, "Li Yi."

Hearing this familiar voice, he turned his head and stared at Long Ju, only to realize that it was true, she really had to come back.

The two looked at each other like this, one was sitting on the ground and the other was standing on it. In an instant Li Yi straightened up, and he hugged Long Ju fiercely: "You are finally back."

Seeing Li Yi like this, Long Ju couldn't bear to be angry with him anymore, she hugged him back and whispered: "I've always been here." Always.

Li Yi was a little puzzled, what do you mean, it's always been there.

Only then did Li Yi discover what clothes Long Ju was wearing?He was surprised: "Ju'er, you..." Have you always played the role of a servant girl in the mansion?It turned out that he hadn't discovered it all along.

Long Ju smiled bitterly: "You can give up everything for your ambition, but I can't let go."
