With steady and light footsteps, Huo Linfeng and Rong Luoyun came back.
Du Zheng was making the bed, when he heard the sound, he turned his head and called out: "Young Master, Second Palace Mistress, have you had dinner yet?"
Huo Linfeng stayed on the couch in the outer room, opened the lacquer box, and ate the walnuts inside. Rong Luoyun sat at the table in the inner room, glanced occasionally, not embarrassed, and then simply raised his hand to support his chin.
Strange, Du Zheng walked to the table and asked: "Second Palace Mistress, did you not eat well?"
Rong Luoyun let out an "um" and felt a headache from eating. Seeing this, Du Zheng was a little worried, and said: "This is not the Marquis's Mansion, and I can't prepare supper. We still have some snacks left on the way, how about some cushions?"
Rong Luoyun looked into the small room, saw Huo Linfeng's stern expression, and said, "Go and ask him if he eats?"
Du Zheng went over to ask, Huo Linfeng said: "What to eat, this meal is not enough for tonight?"
Rong Luoyun could hear it clearly, and he could even feel the aura clearly. When Du Zheng turned back, he poured a cup of tea and handed it over, saying, "Shun Shun for him, don't make trouble."
Du Zheng brought the tea to Huo Linfeng, but Huo Linfeng didn't take it, and said: "If you think there is something wrong with me, then go find someone who is not wrong."
So straightforward, really disdainful of hiding needles in cotton, Rong Luoyun couldn't sit still, got up and walked over, and sat on the couch next to Huo Linfeng. Huo Linfeng moved to the side, and Rong Luoyun followed, until there was no room at the end of the couch, so he could only squeeze with his sleeves brushing each other.
From the time the two met, in my impression, this was the first time Huo Linfeng lost his temper and played with his temper.
Rong Luoyun was quiet for a moment, feeling a little confused, worried, and didn't know how to coax this dude, but he was also proud, after all, it was because of him.
After a long time, Rong Luoyun asked, "Are you upset?"
Huo Linfeng tilted his head, playing with the jade pendant on his waist with one hand, and thought, could it be that I have happiness written on my face
Rong Luoyun grabbed a walnut, cracked it, and said, "When you were discussing with Meng Tingyuan, I didn't make a sound. When I was eating in Nuan Pavilion, I just concentrated on eating. What did I do wrong?"
After a long sentence, Huo Linfeng directly grasped the point: "Did you stay with him in that Nuan Pavilion?"
Rong Luoyun was really shocked, how could he think that this person was so sensitive, he broke the walnuts in panic, and replied falteringly: "When I came back to Chang'an, I talked to him in the Nuan Pavilion during the night visit."
Huo Linfeng said: "In the huge Prince Rui's Mansion, he just chose that one." The jade pendant told him to pinch it in half with a slight cracking sound, "The decorations and utensils that have not changed, there is one more me who is blinded by the drum, Don't you feel very excited when you look at each other?"
It was described as having an affair, Rong Luoyun cursed secretly, but held back, holding the peeled walnuts and bringing them to Huo Linfeng's mouth. "Take a bite." He changed the subject, "I'll admit my mistake after eating."
Huo Linfeng pursed his lips tightly, unmoved, but stared at the other party's movements from the corner of his eye.
Suddenly, Rong Luoyun withdrew his hand, stuffed the walnut kernels into his mouth, leaned closer, grabbed his shoulders and held his face, rubbed his lips against his lips, gently poked with the tip of his tongue, and fed him the walnut kernels in a daze.
His teeth and cheeks were fragrant, his thin lips were wet, Huo Linfeng was stunned for a while, and before he could recover, Rong Luoyun threw himself into his arms in embarrassment, and buried his head in his neck like a wall. .
Huo Linfeng raised his eyes, saw Du Zheng staring at them, and said angrily, "What are you looking at? Get out!"
Du Zheng was pissed off, and when the door slammed shut, there were only two breaths that came and went. For some reason, Huo Linfeng had already hugged Rong Luoyun on his lap, and the broken jade pendant was still sticking to Rong Luoyun's butt.
He said, "Don't you want to admit your mistake?"
Rong Luoyun whispered: "It wasn't my fault." He raised his face and wrapped his arms around Huo Linfeng's neck, "I have nothing to do with him, but we just got along with each other when we were children."
Before seeing Meng Tingyuan, Huo Linfeng also thought that, the "Little Heng" and the jade ring were all because of the affection many years ago, and also because of Tang Zhen.
But seeing him today, he realized: "Prince Rui's eyes can't fool me, he likes you."
All the jealousy rolled through the window paper, and the word "like" was said, and it was pierced. Rong Luoyun panicked for a moment, and hurriedly said: "I fell in love with you when I was young, it's just the love among children."
Huo Linfeng said: "Come on, it's obviously the kind of love with broken sleeves!"
Rong Luoyun said anxiously: "You misunderstood, he is already married, and has a princess."
Huo Linfeng said: "It's really infatuated to have a princess who still misses you so much." He counted them in detail, "I don't know if I'm so considerate to the princess when I serve you food in front of someone else."
Lowering his eyes, he imitated his tongue and said, "Xiao Rong, did the shrimp cook to your liking?"
Rong Luoyun was in a dilemma, trying to find the answer: "You peeled it, so it suits your taste..."
However, Huo Linfeng was thinking that in the dead of night before, Rong Luoyun and Meng Tingyuan were alone in the warm pavilion, illuminated by lights, and Meng Tingyuan affectionately presented a jade ring. After a long absence of more than ten years, when I recalled my innocence, I called out "Xiaoheng" softly.
He really wanted to kill.
Huo Linfeng asked: "When he was young, what did you call him?"
Just now he was still talking about shrimp, but now he jumped to the old name, Rong Luoyun hesitated, and didn't say a word for a long time. Huo Linfeng listed a few: "Third prince? Meng Tingyuan? Brother Meng? Or Tingyuan?"
Rong Luoyun said dully: "Brother Ting Yuan..."
Huo Linfeng gritted his teeth: "Are you ashamed?!"
Rong Luoyun couldn't help being wronged: "How old was she at that time, she shouted in private, not to mention my sister also shouted like that."
Huo Linfeng nodded: "You were only five years old when you left Chang'an, so young, what kind of affection can he have for a child?" The conversation changed, and he said suspiciously, "It must be because of the letters and correspondences these years that he forgot No, it’s only now that I think about it.”
Rong Luoyun had nowhere to redress his grievances. He had indeed passed on letters to Prince Rui all these years, and what he could pass on was all important matters. He could at most ask for his well-being, and the creed would be destroyed after reading it, so it could not prove his innocence.
During the silence, Huo Linfeng followed up with another question: "He still wants to arrange you to live in the main garden tonight. What does he want to do?"
Rong Luoyun couldn't answer, she cast her eyes away and dodged, and caught sight of Huo Linfeng's clenched fist. If he is angry, he should hold it tightly. He stretches out his hand to grab it, and pulls the other's fingers bit by bit, like a curious and troublesome child.
Huo Linfeng was furious: "I'm talking to you!"
Rong Luoyun opened it, and saw that Huo Linfeng's palm was a handful of walnuts, and when he entered the house, he sat here peeling the walnuts, and didn't eat them. He was a little startled, and asked softly, "Could it be that you stripped it for me?"
General Huo was guilty of something, his ears turned red, he didn't know if he was angry, or he was humiliated by being punctured. Without saying a word, he pushed Rong Luoyun away in anger, shook the hem of his clothes, and the two halves of the broken jade pendant fell on the blanket.
Rong Luoyun immediately entangled him, hugged Huo Linfeng's shoulder from the side, and said, "Don't be angry, I admit my mistake." He coaxed people to be happy, "I know I was wrong, it's..."
Where is the mistake, what a motherly worry.
Rong Luoyun read a poem: "My heart is staggering..." He secretly raised his eyes, saw Huo Linfeng's tense smile, he became bolder, twisted it, and lay on his shoulder, "I want to eat walnuts."
Huo Linfeng raised his palm, motioning for him to eat.
He didn't touch, but instead tightened his arms around the other's neck from behind, saying, "Feed me like I feed you."
Huo Linfeng's Adam's apple rolled, he put a walnut in his mouth, turned his head, and wanted to feed this tortured villain with his mouth. Rong Luoyun leaned on that shoulder, and turned his face sideways, his thin lips overturned and touched Huo Linfeng's lips and teeth.
The tongue fiddled, the breath was drained, and the stickiness made me dizzy for a while, and the breath was entwined and couldn't be separated, like a fish thrown into water, just the female and the male.
After the kiss was over, Rong Luoyun drooped his eyelids, blushed and said, "I'm not ashamed to be with you."
Huo Linfeng's heart, which was marinated in the vinegar vat, softened, and he admitted: "I'm the one who has tasted it, so I shouldn't lose my temper with you."
He carried Rong Luoyun on his back, walked to the bedside in the inner room, and fell down on the quilt together. Outside the room, a maid came to deliver incense for calming the nerves, and asked Du Zheng to stop him.
Just in time, the lights in the room were blown out.
The first night in Chang'an City was not as cold as Saibei, and everything was a little strange.
In the middle of the night, Rong Luoyun opened his eyes and got up from Huo Linfeng's arms. He was brewing the lock breath formula, got off the bed with his clothes, and walked out of the room lightly.
When Huo Linfeng woke up, his arms were suddenly empty, and he still expected him to sleep soundly alone
He got up, followed Rong Luoyun to go out, left the house, and gradually left the Zheyuan, his heart sank more and more, he followed step by step to the main garden of Prince Rui's mansion, hiding in the shadow of the corner gate, suddenly felt cold all over his body.
Rong Luoyun stopped in the courtyard, picked up three small stones from the flower garden, and threw them lightly at the edge of the window. After throwing all three, the door creaked open.
Meng Tingyuan came out with his clothes on, and said with a mixture of surprise and joy, "Xiaoheng, I know it's you."
Rong Luoyun said: "I can't sleep well." He said calmly and coldly, "There is no soothing incense, and I wake up when the wind blows outside the window."
Meng Tingyuan heard the clue and kept silent, but Rong Luoyun exposed him: "I asked the maid to send incense, didn't I just want to find out how Huo Linfeng and I slept, and I will only say something to you. We sleep in the same room and share the same bed. .”
In the shadows, Huo Linfeng thought he heard it wrong, so it turned out that Rong Luoyun came quietly to tell Prince Rui this
Under the eaves, Meng Tingyuan was silent for a long time before responding: "He knows your identity." These words seemed to be inconsistent, but there was a hidden mystery, and then he said, "Actually, Huo Zhao, Marquis of Dingbei..."
Rong Luoyun said, "Kill my parents, right?"
The lights were not bright, but he knew Meng Tingyuan's expression, he approached, stepped up the steps and walked in front of Meng Tingyuan, and said under his breath, "I knew it early on, seventeen years, you have kept it from me so hard. "
Meng Tingyuan said: "Xiaoheng, I, I didn't mean to hide it from you."
His voice trembled violently: "I'm afraid that you will take revenge. The Marquis of Dingbei is a loyal minister. For the country and for the people at the border, he shouldn't die because of personal grievances..."
Rong Luoyun asked: "It's for yourself, isn't it?"
Meng Tingyuan couldn't deny it, but wanted to justify: "I was just a child back then, and it was my concubine mother who made the decisions." He looked into Rong Luoyun's eyes, and laughed at himself regretfully, "When I understand, I'm already a concubine." Someone who can calculate the pros and cons."
It is hard to tell right from wrong. Things in the world are different from ink-dyed rice paper, black or white. Now that Huo Zhao is dead, the grievances have been settled, and there is no point in breaking up.
"That's all." Rong Luoyun said, "If you want to achieve a great cause, benevolence and virtue are the foundation. If you have it, Linfeng will naturally help you."
Meng Tingyuan asked: "Since you know what happened back then...you still like him?"
It was the word "like" again. When Huo Linfeng asked, Rong Luoyun retorted in a panic. Now that Meng Tingyuan came to ask, he replied without changing expression, "Yes, I like it very much."
Meng Tingyuan was about to die like a chilling cicada, ashamed and defeated, the corners of his eyes suddenly turned red. Rong Luoyun took a step forward, helped her tighten her clothes, and asked, "You and I were only children when we parted, and we haven't seen each other all these years. Where did your love come from?"
The other party was visibly stiff, and he asked again: "The mother-in-law who takes care of my sister in Chaomulou was originally the nanny who served you in the palace. She has been spying on me all these years and is your eyes and ears, isn't she?"
Meng Tingyuan explained: "It's not what you think, just tell me some trivial things about you, food, clothing, daily life, every year, every year..."
He was suddenly discouraged: "Pass a portrait of you every year."
Rong Luoyun let go of his hand, with a mixture of pity and hatred: "Are you tired from living?"
The rosy corners of Meng Tingyuan's eyes fell: "It's all my retribution. If I hadn't disobeyed the Taifu's words and showed my sharpness in order to fight for favor, I wouldn't have ruined your family."
He was the culprit, and he never revealed it.
After everything was clarified, Rong Luoyun took two steps back, turned around and walked back along the corridor, the night was as cold as water, and when he returned to Zheyuan, his cheeks were icy.
He entered the room softly again, went to the bed, and turned over on the bed while holding the edge of the bed.
Rong Luoyun burrowed into the brocade quilt, and hugged Huo Linfeng's body to keep warm. Suddenly, he rubbed against Huo Linfeng's cheek, which was the same temperature as him. It can only mean... The other party just came back from the outside.
Follow him, eavesdrop on him, and pretend to be asleep right now.
But he didn't want to expose it, instead he murmured: "Brother Linfeng, Leng..."
Huo Linfeng hugged him tightly, he could act better than an actor: "Hey... go to sleep."
Unburned the incense to soothe the nerves, and went to each other's sweet dreams.
The author has something to say: After meeting Meng Tingyuan, Huo Linfeng felt that Duan Huaike was actually pretty good
