"Second Miss, this..."
Seeing his lord walking straight past the carriage without even looking at them, a guard driving the carriage showed a bit of surprise on his face, and said to the woman holding the sword.
Miss Liu Er also had a hint of doubt on her face, then she waved her hand and said, "Follow slowly."
Li Yi walked slowly along the street, and gradually walked out of the city gate. There was always a figure following behind him more than ten feet away. Miss Liu Er's expression changed from doubt and surprise at the beginning to worry.
Because he has been like this for a whole hour.
Miss Liu Er's expression began to look a little dignified. This kind of Li Yi made him feel very strange, even stranger than Li Yi who said "I say, go down" to her that day on the ring in Goulan of Qing'an Mansion.
…
…
Viscount Mansion.
In the shade under a big tree at the door, Lao Fang was sitting at a low table with his legs crossed, casually chatting with Butler Li, with a smile on his face, almost writing the word "happy" on his face.
"What are you happy about today?" Butler Li picked up a few small dishes with chopsticks, took another sip of the wine, narrowed his eyes comfortably, and asked while looking at Lao Fang.
"Hey, no, no..." Lao Fang waved his hand, took a gulp of wine, and laughed, "What can I be happy about..."
Butler Li shook his head. His expression was so obvious that even the dog sticking out his tongue could tell that he was in a good mood.
Lao Fang picked up a few pieces of meat, looked up and saw a figure coming from a distance, stood up from the stool, strode over and said, "Guye, guess what I saw in the city today?" Yes, those jade courtyards..."
"Uncle, Uncle?"
Lao Fang looked suspiciously at Li Yi who didn't even pay any attention to him and walked straight into the mansion. He was a little confused for a while, so that he even forgot a certain thing that made him excited until now.
Looking back again, the carriage of the Viscount's Mansion was actually following behind, and I wondered in my heart why my uncle would come back by himself, not even sitting in the carriage, until he saw the second lady who was also not very good-looking coming, the expression appeared on his face. There was a hint of bewilderment.
"Second Miss, did you quarrel with my uncle again?"
When Miss Liu Er walked past him, Lao Fang couldn't help asking a question tentatively.
As soon as the words came out, I felt something was wrong. I looked up and saw Miss Liu Er's cold eyes, and immediately shuddered. The reaction was faster than the dog lying on the ground sticking out its tongue, and disappeared in an instant.
"Grandpa..." Xiaohuan was washing the two clothes that Li Yi had changed yesterday, and when he saw him walking in from the outside, Xiaohuan immediately raised her face.
Ruyi came out from the inside, looked at him and said with a smile: "My husband is back, have you eaten yet? If not, I will tell the kitchen to do it right away."
"I've eaten." Li Yi said in a low voice, then walked into the room and said, "I'm a little tired. I'll sleep for a while. If there's nothing else, don't let people disturb me."
There was a trace of doubt on Ruyi's face, but she still nodded.
Xiaohuan washed her hands and ran in, muttering softly while making the bed.
This year's Qixi Festival, we must ask Uncle Fang and the others to help build a clever building that is taller than last year. The maids in the mansion have been talking about how tall the clever buildings of those wealthy families in Kyoto are, and their own homes must not be destroyed. Only by comparison.
"Is Qixi Festival coming soon..." Li Yi took off his coat, murmured, looked at the little maid and asked, "What day is it today?"
The little servant girl counted with her fingers, and after a while she said, "June 18th."
Hearing this number, Li Yi was startled for a long time before he sighed, and then a weak voice came over.
"June 18th... It's been a whole year."
After Xiaohuan closed the door, she stood at the door and listened for a while, but she didn't hear any other movement inside, so she murmured with some doubts: "What a year..."
"Didn't anything happen today?" In the yard, Ruyi looked at Miss Liu Er and asked suspiciously.
"I don't know." Miss Liu Er shook her head. She didn't enter the palace with Li Yi today. He became like this after he came out, and he didn't know what happened.
Ruyi didn't ask any more questions, but when she looked at the closed door, she couldn't help showing a bit of worry on her face.
For some reason, after coming out of the palace, Li Yi felt very tired, especially after hearing Xiaohuan talk about today's day... This kind of tiredness is not only physical, but also psychological, lying comfortably On the bed, the double fatigue was released, and he just wanted to sleep like this forever.
…
…
Sensing that the atmosphere in the mansion was not right, the servants of the Viscount's mansion have been very careful these few days.
There is no maid to discuss what will happen to the Tanabata mansion half a month later, the grandfather has not stepped out of that courtyard for several days, Miss Xiaohuan's face is full of worry, and the second lady has never had a good face , even the lady's face can occasionally see a trace of sadness.
The maid servants work lightly, for fear of making the slightest sound.
Li Yi was lying on the bed, looking haggard. He had actually slept enough in the past few days, but he still felt very tired.
After that special day, the negative emotions hidden somewhere in the body suddenly broke out, and everything except sleeping felt dull.
But even if he falls asleep, he is not safe, and there will always be some weird things filling his mind.
For a while, I dreamed that he was sitting in the bus wearing an ancient costume, and was greeted by the surprised and scrutinizing eyes of the people on the bus; It's Jay Chou's "Back to the Past", and the person sitting on the dragon chair above him and looking at him mockingly is the King of Shu; At that time, in a rage, he found a woman from the street and took him home. The woman had the same face as Ruyi...
Similar images and pictures often appear in his mind, sometimes he is lying on the rocking chair in Liuye village, the little maid is holding his shoulders behind him, and in front of him is the graceful figure of Miss Liu Er dancing with a sword , out of the corner of my eye, I could see Ruyi busy in the kitchen...
Then, the hateful faces of Qin Yu and the King of Shu would appear in due course—then they would wake up, eat, and continue to feel sleepy after eating, and so on.
…
…
"What should I do, my uncle has been asleep for five whole days." The little maid sat on the stone bench in the yard, her little face was full of sadness.
Apart from his special love for sleeping, my uncle has no other abnormalities. At first, I thought that my uncle was sick. Later, I even invited the imperial doctor in the palace, but the imperial doctor couldn't tell what went wrong, and he didn't even prescribe a prescription. One, he also said that the uncle himself is the best doctor—what a crappy imperial doctor, the medical skills he learned are all deceptive!
A figure with its hands behind its back came out of the house, and the little maid hurried over.
Ruyi who had been waiting outside immediately walked over and asked, "Second Uncle, how is it?"
The old man waved his hand and said: "This is his own demonic obstacle, if he gets out of it, it will pass naturally, if he can't get out..."
The second uncle didn't finish his sentence, so he left the yard with his hands behind his back.
"How is this possible? Mr. Xianggong's martial arts is not high, how could he encounter a demonic obstacle..." Ruyi glanced into the room, her face turned pale.
Miss Liu Er's knuckles holding the sword turned slightly white, and she felt a little panic in her heart for no reason. This panic even surpassed that not long ago when the two were in a cold war.
She couldn't help thinking of last year's Qixi Festival, and the side of him that she had never seen when he was alone-has that him always existed
What is he—what is he lonely for
…
…
Li Yi felt that he was already very tired, his forehead was covered with sweat, and blood was oozing from many wounds on his body, but he never let go of the autumn water in his hand.
Because there are countless people in front of him, ten Qin Yu, eight Shu kings, six Wu Ying, and countless men with scars on their faces. Exhausted, he fell powerlessly to the ground.
He saw the two Qin Yus rushing forward with strange smiles on their faces, the King of Shu sneered behind his back, Wu Ying looked at him coldly with his sword in his arms...
At the critical moment, Li Yi said silently in his heart: "Ruyi Ruyi, follow my heart, and quickly manifest..."
Then, a figure appeared.
A white and slender hand grasped Qiushui, dressed in white clothes, each with a sword, his eyes were full of sword light, one Qin Yu fell, two Qin Yu fell, and the eight Shu kings all fell. After that, only the standing figure was left in front of his eyes.
At this time, the woman turned around, turned her back to the corpses on the ground, and slowly extended her hand to him.
Li Yi raised his hand with difficulty, squeezed her hand, and woke up.
He saw Miss Liu Er standing in front of the bed and looking at him. She held Qiushui in one hand, and he held the other tightly.
The morning sun shone in through the window, a little dazzling.
Li Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Miss Liu Er, and spoke softly.
"Morning..."
