When he returned to his home, he originally wanted to go back to the study to do some work, but he couldn't calm down, so he went to the military camp for a walk. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he saw this scene, and his heart ached.
He looked up at the restaurant.
Mo Jiujiu and Lu Yan had already walked to a window seat on the second floor and sat down.
Lu Yan had a happy smile on his face, and Mo Jiujiu sat down opposite him. The two of them were talking and seemed to be in a good mood.
Han Yixiao looked away and said to himself in his heart: Now that she has let go, don't think about her anymore. She is free to be with whomever she wants. Aren't you already planning to marry Bingbing? What else do you hope for!
He walked away in despair.
Mo Jiujiu glanced out the window inadvertently and saw a familiar figure in the crowd. Mo Jiujiu felt that her heart stopped beating instantly and wanted to get up and rush down to find him, but her reason suppressed her. Impulsively, I murmured in my heart: Could it be him? How could he appear on the street at this time? He is such an indifferent person and doesn't like shopping. How could he be alone on the street? Even if we have to take to the streets, we should be with Wu Bingbing!
He must have seen it wrong, it must not be him, he was hallucinating again.
Ever since I separated from him, I always imagined that he would suddenly appear in front of me, but every time, I was disappointed. This time, it would not be true. He was already going to marry Wu Bingbing, even if he had time. , I was also accompanying Wu Bingbing in my house, so how could I go shopping on the street
The loss and bitterness in her heart spread without warning. Just a familiar figure made her unable to breathe. If she stayed in Kyoto any longer, she didn't know what would happen to her.
So I left Kyoto after my grandpa’s birthday the day after tomorrow to take care of my mood, and I couldn’t go on like this.
When Lu Yan saw Mo Jiujiu looking out the window, he looked lost. He couldn't help but look down, but didn't find anything special!
He personally poured a cup of tea for Mo Jiujiu, placed it in front of her, and said warmly: "Jiujiu, let's have a cup of tea!"
Mo Jiujiu was brought back from his wandering thoughts, looked at Lu Yan, smiled, and said politely: "Thank you."
Her politeness made Lu Yan feel a little disappointed. He looked at her and said, "Jiujiu, you should know my feelings very well. Don't be so polite to me."
"Lu Yan, I-"
"Jiujiu, you don't need to rush to give me an answer. I know that my appearance is a bit abrupt and you can't accept it for a while, but please give me a chance? I will prove to you that I really love you. ." Lu Yan looked at Mo Jiujiu and said seriously. I never thought that one day he would speak so gently and patiently to a woman.
Before meeting Mo Jiujiu, he was dismissive of women. He thought women were lowly and just men's playthings. All his thoughts were on political affairs and the military every day. He had been on horseback since he was a child. Growing up, he liked to practice martial arts, so his temperament is cold and resolute. He likes to use force to solve everything. He doesn't like to talk too much. He thinks it is a waste of time and nonsense. Fist can solve everything.
So he is a man that women fear.
But after meeting Mo Jiujiu, he felt that his temper had changed unconsciously, as if he had become another person. He could actually talk to a woman like this patiently. He had never been so gentle since he was a child. I believe that in this life, he His tenderness can only be given to Mo Jiujiu, and he talks to her so sincerely and humbly. Even he finds it incredible. But for the woman he loves, to impress the woman he loves, he is willing to do this. If He likes it, and he will be a gentle and gentle man for her for the rest of his life. He is willing to give her his lifelong tenderness and only show his tenderness in front of her.
Facing Lu Yan's confession, Mo Jiujiu instinctively wanted to refuse: "Lu Yan—"
"Jiujiu, don't reject me. Even if you reject me, I won't give up. I will prove to you my love for you. Do you think I am from Beiming Country and think you should marry me? Is it too far away from Kyoto? So you are worried? Don’t worry, after you marry me, as long as you want to return to Kyoto, we will come back at any time. The distance is not a problem, in fact, it is not very far." Lu Yan told Mo Jiu Jiu's love is very direct. If you like her, you will say it boldly. If it were any other girl, she would have been scared away by him, but Mo Jiujiu is not an ordinary girl. Facing his confession , just smiled faintly, still acting very calm, and cleverly changed the subject: "Here comes the food, try whether the delicacies of our Huachen Kingdom are to your taste." He did not directly answer Lu Yan's words.
Although this was the second time she met Lu Yan, she had heard about him. When she sent troops to Beiming, she studied several important leaders and generals in their country, and Lu Yan was one of them. One, he is a very motivated young man who is deeply loved by the king of Beiming Kingdom. Moreover, he is born to the queen and is a direct descendant. He is the only person qualified to inherit the throne.
Lu Yan has a calm and calm personality, good at martial arts, cold and ruthless personality, and cold-blooded methods of doing things. He will deal with people who betray him or his enemies very decisively and cruelly, and he will never treat them lightly.
But he is not a cruel person to anyone. He will be kind to those who are loyal to him, so he is a prince who is awe-inspiring and admirable.
The Lu Yan that Mo Jiujiu saw today seemed to have a different personality, so she knew very well that Lu Yan liked her and treated her differently, but she really couldn't like him, not because he was from Beiming Country. It is not because he is far away from Kyoto, but because his heart has already been filled with Han Yixiao, so it is impossible to accept another man. I believe Lu Yan will give up soon.
After the two had dinner together, Mo Jiujiu said she was a little tired, so Lu Yan personally sent her back to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion. Before leaving, he looked at her and said warmly: "See you in the evening."
Mo Jiujiu was stunned, not understanding the meaning of his words.
As night falls, the palace is very lively tonight. Because they have to welcome the envoys from the Northern Ming Kingdom, the ministers have brought their families to attend tonight's banquet.
Mo Jiujiu also came with her parents. In fact, she knew very well that if she came here tonight, she would definitely meet Lu Yan. His love made her want to hide away, but she also wanted to see Han Yixiao. Now the two of them It is difficult to meet each other in a relationship. If you want to meet, you can only meet on this occasion.
Mo Jiujiu had just entered the palace, but he hadn't arrived at Changle Palace yet! Then he met Lu Yan, who immediately walked over enthusiastically: "Nine-nine--"
Mo Jiujiu raised the corners of his lips politely: "Lu Yan, what a coincidence."
"Yes! What a coincidence. It seems that Jiujiu and I are really destined to be together. Jiujiu, I will take you to a place." After saying that, he took Mo Jiujiu's hand and did not wait for Mo Jiujiu to refuse. Then he took her and left.
The Duke of Zhen and his wife were a little surprised when they saw this scene. They didn't expect that Lu Yan would be so enthusiastic about their daughter.
Duke Zhenguo smiled: "The second prince of Beiming Kingdom is actually a good boy. He has the courage to face the woman he likes. No man dares to hold our Jiujiu's hand! Otherwise Jiujiu will definitely do well." She taught him a lesson, but she didn't say anything when Lu Yan held her hand. It seems that Jiujiu has a good impression of Lu Yan."
But her mother was worried and said: "If Jiujiu really falls in love with Lu Yan, do you really want to marry Jiujiu to a place so far away? I can't bear it. Beiming Country is so far away. If Jiujiu gets angry there, we will all have no idea."
Duke Zhen Guo smiled and said confidently: "Madam, don't worry, with our ninety-nine tempers and martial arts, it's good that she won't let others be angry. Who dares to make her angry? Look at Lu Yan's love for her, he will give it to her." Can you bear Jiujiu's anger? You can only bear our Jiujiu's anger."
The Duke's wife sighed and said: "The second prince is quite good, but the only bad thing is the distance. The distance is too far."
Duke Zhenguo patted his wife on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Yes! I also think the distance is quite far, but if Jiujiu really likes Lu Yan, we can't stop her happiness because of the distance! Okay, don't Think about it, isn’t Jiujiu still with us now? Let’s go! Go to Changle Palace and let them resolve the affairs of their young people by themselves.”
Lu Yan took Mo Jiujiu to the observation tower in the palace. Standing on it, he had a panoramic view of the entire palace.
Lu Yan proudly said: "Jiujiu, this is the place I discovered in the palace this afternoon. I found that standing here, I can have a panoramic view of the entire palace. It's quite a sight to look down from here during the day. At night It’s a different scene when you’re there, but it’s even more beautiful when you look at the palace at night. Look at it, isn’t it beautiful?”
Jiujiu was amused by his actions: "Lu Yan, you dragged me here in such a hurry just to show off to me that you discovered this magical place?"
Lu Yan nodded: "Yes! Isn't it magical here? The palace is so big, but you can have a panoramic view from here."
Mo Jiujiu couldn't help but hit him: "Lu Yan, have you forgotten that I am from Huachen Kingdom, and my sister is the queen. Don't you know that there is an observation tower in the palace? Please introduce it to me. Jinglou, isn’t it a little funny?”
Lu Yan was startled and blushed with embarrassment: "Yes! How could I have forgotten these things? I only wanted to make you happy, but I forgot these."
Seeing him like this, Mo Jiujiu smiled: "But thank you very much. Although I know there is an observation tower in the palace, I haven't had the chance to visit it yet! So I didn't know that standing here to watch the night view of the palace is so beautiful. No wonder everyone wants to enter the palace and become the emperor's concubine, because the palace is really spectacular and beautiful. But those women's dreams should be shattered, because the emperor only likes my sister now."
Lu Yan looked at Mo Jiujiu, looked at her and said seriously: "Jiujiu, if we are lucky enough to be together, I will do this for you."
Lu Yan's words shocked Mo Jiujiu's heart, and he looked at him unconsciously.
Their eyes met, Lu Yan suddenly held Mo Jiujiu's hand enthusiastically, looked at her and said seriously: "Jiujiu, I really want to give you happiness. Although we have not known each other for a long time, I really have already I am fascinated by you. I really want you to be my wife, give you the most beautiful things in the world, and accompany you to see the most beautiful scenery in the world. When I first saw you on the battlefield, I thought you were extraordinary. When I found out that you were a daughter, I fell in love with you from the bottom of my heart and couldn't control it. So when I came to Huachen Kingdom and met the emperor, I couldn't wait to go to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, just because I wanted to see you as quickly as possible. your turn.
But when I see you again, I always feel that there is more sadness and helplessness in your eyes. I want to try my best to drive away the sadness and helplessness in your eyes. When I see you smile, I feel that the whole world is warm. Seeing you I feel sad and my heart aches along with it. Jiujiu, I don’t know what you have been through, but I really hope to help you find happiness and get back the energetic, quirky, optimistic and cheerful you that you were on the battlefield. "
"Lu Yan—" Mo Jiujiu looked at Lu Yan and didn't know what to say. He forgot to take his hand back for a moment. He didn't expect that he could find such a big difference in himself after seeing him twice. He thought he had disguised himself so well that even his parents didn't notice anything was wrong with him, but he, an outsider, discovered it in such a short period of time. Was he too powerful? Or am I pretending too badly
"Jiujiu, give me a chance, okay? I really want to give you happiness. I like to see you smile. I think you are happy every day." Lu Yan continued to confess affectionately.
Mo Jiujiu looked at Lu Yan in front of him, but what he was thinking about was Han Yixiao. It would be great if Han Yixiao said these words to him. Why could he give up on him so cruelly? Why he loved him so much, but he couldn't find it, why he couldn't say these words to himself.
Thinking of Han Yixiao, the person in front of him slowly turned into Han Yixiao.
Seeing Han Yixiao looking at her affectionately and seeing him smiling at her, Bai Jiu's lips bloomed into a happy smile. She looked at him and couldn't bear to look away.
Lu Yan didn't know that he had become Han Yixiao in Mo Jiujiu's eyes. He thought she was moved by his words. Seeing her happy smile, he felt really happy. He held her hand tightly and said sincerely Said: "Jiujiu, give me a chance, okay? Let me love you, okay?"
Mo Jiujiu was immersed in his beautiful fantasy about Han Yixiao, so he nodded and said gently: "Okay."
Lu Yan was overjoyed and excitedly hugged Mo Jiujiu into his arms: "Jiujiu, thank you, thank you."
Mo Jiujiu was hugged tightly by him, but when a scent of Lu Yan's fragrance reached her nose, Mo Jiujiu's reason was instantly pulled back, and the phantom in front of her was instantly shattered. She clearly understood He realized that the person in front of him was not Han Yixiao, and he had hallucinations again. The person in front of him was Lu Yan. The smell on Han Yixiao was different from him. What he had on him was just the simple smell of sunshine, unique to him. masculinity.
The clothes on Lu Yan's body were clearly scented with incense and had a scent that was exclusive to him.
Mo Jiujiu hated that he was distracted for a moment and actually thought he was Han Yixiao and agreed to his pursuit. When he realized this, he felt very guilty and terrible.
At this time, downstairs, Han Yixiao and Chu Lingxiao passed by. Han Yixiao raised his head and saw her hugging Lu Yan.
Mo Jiujiu was startled and pushed Lu Yan away in a panic.
Lu Yan was slightly startled, feeling a little disappointed in his heart.
However, Han Yixiao could not see any reaction from him, so he calmly withdrew his gaze and left with Chu Lingxiao.
Mo Jiujiu looked at Han Yixiao's leaving figure with sadness and loss in his eyes. He actually didn't react at all. How could he not react at all! Han Yixiao, after so much experience between us, has it really not left a trace on your heart
Lu Yan was a very shrewd person. He saw something was wrong with Mo Jiujiu. He followed her line of sight and saw General Han and Prime Minister Chu.
When he saw Han Yixiao's back, he immediately thought of eating in a restaurant with Mo Jiujiu at noon. He also saw this figure in the crowd at that time, but at that time he just thought that this figure was tall and tall, walking in the crowd. , Standing out from the crowd, he didn't think much about it, but he didn't understand what Mo Jiujiu saw at that time, and he was a little lost.
But now, when Mo Jiujiu saw this figure again, he felt not only devastated, but also in pain and loss, and he began to make speculations in his mind.
"Jiujiu—" Lu Yan called out, not wanting to see Mo Jiujiu's eyes following Han Yixiao's figure, which would make him uncomfortable.
Mo Jiujiu withdrew his gaze, looked at Lu Yan, and said calmly: "Lu Yan, I was distracted just now. I'm sorry! Let's go down!"
Turn around and leave.
But Lu Yan reached out and grabbed her wrist.
Mo Jiujiu looked at him in confusion and tried to pull away his wrist, but was held tightly by Lu Yan. He looked at her, raised the corners of his lips and said: "Jiujiu, don't be anxious now, I want to give you a Surprise." After saying this, Lu Yan raised his hand, and then there was a flash of fire in front of the observation building, followed by a "bang!", and the fireworks bloomed with dazzling light and beautiful flowers under the starry sky.
Immediately afterwards, beautiful fireworks bloomed in the sky, with the words ninety-nine and a smiling face.
Everyone who came to the palace to attend the dinner saw it.
Han Yixiao and Chu Lingxiao, who had walked some distance away, also stopped when they saw the fireworks suddenly rising into the sky.
Chu Lingxiao looked at Han Yixiao and saw that his face was terrifyingly cold.
In fact, Mo Jiujiu only saw his calmness when he looked away just now, but he didn't see the jealousy and jealousy in his eyes after he lowered his eyes, as well as the anger boiling in his heart, as if his most precious thing had been robbed. He was gone, his heart ached so much that he couldn't breathe.
Chu Lingxiao looked at the beautiful fireworks and couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect Lu Yan to be so attentive to Mo Jiujiu. He came up with so many tricks in just one day. Girls are easily moved. It's obvious that a lot of thought was put into these fireworks. I'm afraid that within a few days, Mo Jiujiu's heart will be shaken and he will be moved by him. I'm afraid it will be too late if you regret it by then!"
Han Yixiao glared at Chu Lingxiao coldly.
Chu Lingxiao shrugged and said: "Don't look at me like this. I'm just telling the truth. When Mo Jiujiu was with you, what did you do for her? She has always been chasing you, and you were just passive. Although you fell in love with her later, because of the hatred between the two families, you chose hatred and gave up your love. Mo Jiujiu must be in agony. Even if she is unwilling to let you go, But so what! Your heart is so determined, she has no choice but to accept this cruel reality.
If Lu Yan hadn't appeared, maybe she would have been immersed in her love for you.
But now, there is a suitor around her, and he is coming fiercely and is bound to win. How long do you think her love for you can last? No girl can resist a man who is dedicated and dedicated. As long as a man is sincere and treats a girl well, he will eventually impress the girl.
A Xiao, if you really can't let go of Mo Jiujiu, then you have to hurry up. Once Mo Jiujiu's heart really transfers to Lu Yan, it will be too late for you to regret it. "Chu Lingxiao persuaded him earnestly. Because he is his good brother, I really hope he can be happy. He was really happy when Mo Jiujiu was by his side before. Although it was not obvious on his face, he could I felt that he was in a good mood and relaxed.
But since he separated from Mo Jiujiu, he has closed himself off, becoming more cold and stern than before. This is not what a friend wants to see him like.
Although Han Yixiao was trying to persuade him here, he shook his head helplessly when he thought about his relationship with Huo Nuannuan.
After listening to Chu Lingxiao's sincere words, Han Yixiao only gave him a few cold words in reply: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Quack, quack—" Chu Lingxiao felt unprecedented frustration. He didn't expect that Han Yixiao would respond to him with such indifferent words. He thought that even if he couldn't overcome the hatred in his heart, he would at least say some touching words. , or said something helpless to him and Mo Jiujiu. He had a good chance to continue persuading, but he didn't expect that he only threw these few words, which made him feel really powerless and failed.
Han Yixiao ignored him and walked towards Changle Palace. In fact, his heart felt like a knife was piercing his heart bit by bit. It hurt, it really hurt. It hurt so much that he couldn't speak. The words Chu Lingxiao said were all spoken with all his strength.
Outside Fengyang Palace, Jun Qianche and Mo Jiujiu also saw the brilliant fireworks. They looked at Jun Qianche and asked: "Your Majesty, do you agree that the second prince of Beiming Kingdom will go up to the observation tower and set off fireworks at this time? I want to stimulate Han Yixiao and make him face up to his feelings for Jiujiu! But will he, a cold and ruthless person, really give up his hatred of the Mo family for Jiujiu? I'm afraid that the emperor's good intentions will be in vain. On the contrary, it helped Lu Yan."
Jun Qianche hugged Mo Qiqi's shoulders and sighed: "If Yi Xiao really loves Jiujiu, he must have felt something in his heart after seeing this scene!"
"By the way, Your Majesty, didn't you send someone to investigate what happened between dad and General Han on the battlefield? What was the result? Was it really dad who killed General Han?" Mo Qiqi asked. In fact, I was very nervous. If it was true that her father had killed General Han, it would really be impossible for Jiujiu and Han Yixiao. It might not be a bad idea to bring her and Lu Yan together, but she just thought that Lu Yan was far away in Beiming Country. Still somewhat repulsive.
And if it was true that his father killed General Han back then, Han Yixiao would definitely not let his father go! Then isn't daddy in danger at any time
Let’s talk about Jun Qianche, if General Han’s death was related to his father, how would Jun Qianche deal with his father? The Han family will definitely demand that his father’s life be worth his own life!
Jun Qianche could feel her worry and patted her shoulder to express comfort: "In fact, according to my investigation, the death of General Han at the border cannot really be entirely blamed on Duke Zhen. There were some mistakes in their cooperation at that time, which led to the death of General Han, but this cannot be entirely blamed on Duke Zhen. The battlefield was changing rapidly, and if there was a little hesitation, a big reversal would occur. Although in the battle plan at that time, Duke Zhen was There was some discrepancy in the time agreed with General Han, but the reason was not investigated, so this is also the reason why General Han died. However, whether it was intentional by the Lord Zhen Guo, we still need to investigate again."
Mo Qiqi sighed and said, "If the investigation doesn't clear what happened back then, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Han Yixiao and Jiujiu to be together."
Jun Qianche hugged Mo Qiqi's shoulders tightly and said, "Qiqi, don't think too much. Everyone has his own path. In fact, let Lu Yan go up to the observation tower tonight and let him set off fireworks for Jiujiu. Not only To stimulate Yixiao, I also want to give Jiujiu and Lu Yan a chance. To be honest, Yixiao really can't let go of the hatred in his heart and cannot accept Jiujiu's identity, so it would be good for Lu Yan to chase Jiujiu. It can be seen that Lu Yan I like Jiujiu very much and I have put a lot of thought into her. Jiujiu will be happy with him."
Mo Qiqi sighed and said: "Lu Yan is good, but he is too far away from Kyoto. If he lives in Kyoto, I will definitely bring Jiujiu and him together, so I don't want Jiujiu and Han Yixiao to be together. ! I don’t know how to cherish Jiujiu. But if Jiujiu and Lu Yan are together, she will really be happy. In the end, she can only let her go for the sake of Jiujiu’s happiness, even if she is reluctant to let her go, but she loves Han Yixiao so much in her heart, How could he accept Lu Yan! So I'm afraid that no matter how much Lu Yan pays, it will be in vain."
Jun Qianche comforted him optimistically: "Don't worry, it's fate. It depends on which one of them is destined to be with Jiujiu. Let's go! Go to Changle Palace."
Mo Qiqi nodded and walked towards Changle Palace with Jun Qianche.
On the observation floor, watching the fireworks blooming brightly in the night sky, and then quickly disappearing, is really exciting and emotional at the same time.
Looking at the beautiful fireworks, Mo Jiujiu thought of his relationship with Han Yixiao. Just like these fireworks, they had been beautiful and bloomed brilliantly, but in the end, they quickly dissipated, as if not even a trace could be found. If it weren't for the crushing pain in my heart, would I really doubt that I had ever really fallen in love with him
"Jiujiu, do you like these fireworks?" Lu Yan looked at Mo Jiujiu and asked.
Mo Jiujiu was very moved by Lu Yan's hard work, but being moved does not mean love. Apart from Han Yixiao, she should never fall in love with any other man in this life.
But she couldn't bear to hurt Lu Yan's intentions, so she nodded and said, "I like it. Lu Yan, thank you for the fireworks. They are really beautiful. But Lu Yan, I-"
"As long as you like it, my efforts will not be in vain. It's getting late, let's go to the dinner party!" Lu Yan interrupted Mo Jiujiu. After seeing the way she looked at Han Yixiao's background just now, he seemed to understand something in his heart, so he could guess what Mo Jiujiu wanted to say next, but he really didn't want to listen, and he didn't have the courage to listen. He didn't want his love for Mo Jiujiu to end before it started, so he interrupted her hastily and walked towards Changle Palace with her.
After everyone arrived, the banquet began. There were wonderful singing and dancing performances, delicious food, and delicious wine. Everyone was talking together, creating a happy and prosperous scene.
Lu Yan took the lead in leading the people from Beiming Kingdom to toast the emperor and said some kind words.
Then Jun Qianche and his ministers gave Lu Yan a drink in return, and then everyone talked freely and interesting things together, making the banquet more lively.
But in this bustle, people who are in a bad mood feel a little out of place.
Mo Jiujiu sat quietly in his seat, but his eyes were looking in the direction of Han Yixiao intentionally or unintentionally.
Han Yixiao just sat indifferently in his seat, drinking the wine in front of him, one glass after another. Mo Jiujiu was really worried that he would get drunk and wanted to step forward to stop him, but she only blamed her brain. I was too sober and didn't know what qualifications and status I had to stop him.
When the ministers saw Mo Jiujiu dressed in women's clothing, they all praised him and said that Duke Zhen Guo had two beautiful daughters.
It is also said that Mo Jiujiu is handsome when he is dressed as a man and can charm women. When she is dressed as a woman, she is so beautiful and charming that she can charm men, which is really enviable.
Listening to everyone's praise, the Duke of Zhen was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
Mo Jiujiu just smiled perfunctorily, not reaching his eyes.
If possible, she would rather her daughter's identity would never be discovered, so that she could always stay by his side.
Lu Yan kept looking at Mo Jiujiu. When he saw that she always looked at Han Yixiao, he confirmed his suspicions. He felt a little jealous. Thinking that she and Han Yixiao were in the same military camp before and had a superior-subordinate relationship and got along day and night. Han Yixiao was madly jealous. Perhaps it was because of spending time together that Mo Jiujiu developed feelings for him.
Even so, he still wanted to squeeze Han Yixiao out of Mo Jiujiu's heart.
So Lu Yan stood up and walked to Mo Jiujiu, changed places with a lady, and sat down.
Mo Jiujiu saw Lu Yan beside him, smiled lightly and said, "Why are you here?"
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "It's boring to see you sitting here alone, so I came here to keep you company."
Mo Jiujiu shook his head and smiled: "I'm not bored! You should go have a drink with other ministers!"
Lu Yan joked, "What's the point of drinking? It's more fun to appreciate beauties."
Mo Jiujiu gave him a helpless look, smiled, and warned: "Lu Yan, don't talk nonsense, otherwise I will think you are a very carefree person."
Lu Yan immediately said seriously: "Jiujiu, I'm not bothered at all. Although there are many women around me, I don't like any of them. You are the only girl I like. I only care about you."
His words made Mo Jiujiu feel a little embarrassed. He smiled perfunctorily and said, "Lu Yan, stop talking nonsense. Let me toast you! You are welcome to come from afar."
Lu Yan immediately picked up the wine glass and said happily: "I will definitely drink Jiujiujiu's wine." He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
Ever since Lu Yan stood up and sat next to Mo Jiujiu, Han Yixiao couldn't help but look over. Seeing the two of them talking and laughing, the jealousy in his heart seemed to be crazy. He really couldn't suppress it anymore. I can suppress the jealousy in my heart by drinking cup after cup of wine in front of me.
Chu Lingxiao, who was sitting next to him, saw this scene and immediately took the wine glass from his hand and worried: "You are crazy. If you drink like this, you will be completely drunk!"
Han Yixiao said coldly: "The banquet is just for drinking! Give me the wine glass."
"The banquet requires drinking, but you don't drink like this! I know you feel uncomfortable, but this wine can't solve the problem! If you really like her, go and pursue her. What's the use of drinking."
"You don't have to worry about my affairs." Han Yixiao said coldly, taking the wine glass back from Chu Lingxiao's hand.
Chu Lingxiao shook his head helplessly and saw that Lu Yan was still chatting with Mo Jiujiu. If he continued like this, he was really afraid that Han Yixiao would lose control of his jealousy, so he stood up, looked at Lu Yan and said, "Second Prince, are you from now on?" You've come all the way from Beiming, thank you for your hard work, I'd like to give you a toast." I hope it can divert Lu Yan's eyes from Mo Jiujiu.
When Lu Yan saw this, he immediately stood up, picked up his wine glass and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Chu." He drank the wine in the glass generously.
Then Lu Yan's eyes fell on Han Yixiao next to Chu Lingxiao, poured another glass of wine, looked at Han Yixiao and said: "General Han, I have heard of your name a long time ago, and later I was lucky enough to be on the battlefield. I have witnessed the demeanor of General Han, which is really admirable. Today, Xiao Wang is here to toast General Han. I hope that after the friendship between the two countries, I can have more military exchanges with General Han."
Han Yixiao raised his head and stood up slowly. His eyes met Lu Yan's, and as the two looked at each other, a strong hostility flowed between them.
Han Yixiao didn't say a word, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows appreciatively and said, "General Han has a good drinker." Then he raised his head and drank all the wine in his glass.
At this time, some ministers saw Lu Yan and Mo Jiujiu sitting together and couldn't help joking: "In the morning, the second prince bluntly expressed his admiration for Miss Mo San. He didn't expect that in the evening, he would meet with Mo Jiujiu." The young lady sat next to each other, the two of them are so talented and beautiful together, they are a perfect match!"
Others saw it and immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, they are really a perfect match. It seems that in a few days, the emperor will grant them a marriage."
After hearing this, Jun Qianche smiled lightly and said nothing.
After Mo Jiujiu heard this, he unconsciously looked at Han Yixiao, and his eyes met with his.
Han Yixiao looked away coldly, as if Bai Jiu's matter had nothing to do with her!
Mo Jiujiu's heart was completely wounded.
When Lu Yan heard this, he said happily: "Thank you all ministers for your kind words. If Jiujiu and I are really lucky enough to become husband and wife, we will definitely treat you to a banquet."
"Then we can wait for the wedding reception between the Second Prince and Miss Mo." Everyone joked.
When Han Yixiao heard Lu Yan call Mo Jiujiu so affectionately, the jealousy and anger in his heart became stronger. He held the wine glass and wanted to crush it.
The banquet ended in a lively and peaceful manner, and everyone left the palace one after another.
Lu Yan wanted to send Mo Jiujiu back in person, but Mo Jiujiu refused and left with his parents.
Tonight's banquet made Mo Jiujiu feel uncomfortable. She was really repelled by Lu Yan's approach, but Han Yixiao's reaction made her feel so disappointed. From another perspective, Lu Yan seemed to be helping She proved Han Yixiao's indifference to her. When he said let go, he could really let go. Why wasn't he as free and easy as he was
In fact, Mo Jiujiu didn't know that Han Yixiao was not as free and easy as she saw, it was just that his moodiness was revealed.
Mo Jiujiu returned to the Zhenguo Palace, returned to his room, closed the door, and all the disguises disappeared in an instant. He felt that all the blood in his body had been drained, and without any strength, he weakly walked to the edge of the bed. Sitting down and thinking about tonight's scenes, it really felt like a dream. Lu Yan's enthusiasm and attentiveness.
Han Yixiao's indifference, alienation, and ruthlessness really made her mind very confused.
It was late at night, and the wind picked up, blowing up the dust on the ground. Some of the fine sand grains were lifted up and hit the windows making a sound, which seemed so loud in the silent night.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky like a sharp sword, disappearing in an instant, followed by rumbling thunder.
Lightning flashed across again, followed by thunder. Just like the two chasing people, thunder was always chasing the footsteps of lightning, but the lightning was too fast, and thunder could not catch up.
Mo Jiujiu turned his head and looked in the direction of the window, watching the pursuit of Lightning and Lei, and thought of himself and Han Yixiao, as if they were chasing each other. She tried her best to chase him, thinking that she had caught him every time. They are getting closer, but there is always a distance between them that cannot be crossed.
Thinking of his indifference and alienation tonight, my heart felt so heavy and depressed that I couldn't breathe.
Along with the thunder and lightning, the heavy rain came as expected, slapping on the windows, as if playing a song belonging to the night.
Mo Jiujiu gently lay down on the pillow, closed his eyes, and felt the boundless pain in his heart.
Bear it for two more days. After these two days, leave here and leave this place where you suppress the pain.
Hanfu
Han Yixiao stood in front of the window and looked at the pouring rain, the lightning flashing in the sky, and the rumbling thunder, but his irritability could not be calmed down for a long time.
Scenes of Lu Yan and Mo Jiujiu flashed before her eyes, and her heart ached unbridled. Thinking of the scene of her and Lu Yan standing on the observation tower and hugging each other, she clenched her fists unconsciously to vent the jealousy in her heart and go crazy. of jealousy.
Why did God torture two lovers like this? He made him fall in love with Bai Jiu, but then made her the daughter of the Mo family, and made the two families enemies. Was he deliberately torturing them
Han Yixiao took a deep breath, hoping to relieve the boredom in his heart.
Outside Kyoto, Fengheju
It is said that the rain in spring is silent and likes to come at night. It falls gently after everyone has fallen asleep, hoping to surprise those who get up early tomorrow.
And Chu Lingxiao looked forward to rain and thunder every day, so that his relationship with Huo Nuannuan could be closer.
God seemed to have heard his request, so he arranged this rain for him tonight.
