No one can give her the answer, she can only make her own choice, but how should she choose? Is it to betray the love of Qingzhan or give up Chengfeng's life? Both of these will make her feel like a knife cut.
Volume Twenty Reunion
01 Regret
Just like this until the early morning, the sun after the rain poured down on the banana trees outside the temple door, exuding a refreshing and pleasant breath after the rain, Jie Lan got up, put on a single coat, and got up out of the temple. At the door, when the guards saw her about to go out, they quickly blocked her, afraid that she would rush into the city again.
"I only walk in this courtyard, you don't have to worry about it," Jie Lan said.
The two guards let go and let go. Jielan walked into the courtyard and looked at the flowers blooming in the courtyard, beautiful and full of fragrance, her upset heart slowly calmed down. Jielan sorted out what happened in the past few days, feeling that she was too self-willed and did not think about it. Now she is alone, and she has to think carefully about what to do to solve the problem. She thought for a long time. Feeling that he can only make a decision after seeing Chengfeng, he returned to the hall and greeted the two guards in, saying: "Please go and inform the city lord that I have something to see him."
One of the guards retreated and went to report, while the other guard stayed and continued to guard at the gate of the temple.
About half an hour later, I saw the guard who had gone to report to come back. He reported to Jie Lan: "The Lord is in the Ruoxin Pavilion, and his subordinates will accompany the envoy."
Jie Lan expected that these guards would not let herself go, so she couldn't control them anymore. She responded and said, "I'll go after I've cleaned up. You stay away!"
The guard went out, closed the door of the palace, Jie Lan changed her clothes, and after tidying herself up a bit, she left the hall and asked the guard to lead the way to the'Ruoxin Pavilion'.
When the'Ruoxin Pavilion' was reached, the city lord was still in the future. Jie Lan had to stand here and wait for a while, but when seeing a few palace people, they put up a food tray and put up a few snacks. On the jade table in the pavilion, those dim sums were exquisite and exquisite. At first glance, Jie Lan had an appetite. She wanted to taste a few bites. After a while, she saw that the palace men brought two more bowls. After they finished serving the ginseng soup, they retreated. Although Jie Lan felt hungry, she didn't dare to be rude to eat first, so she had to wait for the city lord to arrive.
After about half a cup of tea, I saw the city lord Li Gonggong lead down to the'Ruoxin Pavilion'. At this time, Yu Qing changed into the monarch's clothes. Although it still seemed quite haggard, compared to the time last night, he was also awkward. With a lot of energy, he saw Jie Lan and smiled and said, "I'm really sorry for making you wait for a long time, but Grandpa Lei is also very long-winded. If he insists on this and that, he delays a few hours."
When a city lord said this to herself, Jie Lan felt a little frightened, and said: "As a messenger, I should be equal to the city lord. The city lord should not blame himself for this."
"If it’s someone else, I don’t care, but if you are, how can I not take it to my heart and take a seat. These are some snacks I specially prepared for you. If you tell me not to fast, I will let him today. You eat with the owner, so that you don’t worry about the owner." He took the lead in taking a piece of cake and sandwiched it on Jielan’s plate, and said: "Try it, it’s made from mashed lotus petals. It is fragrant and fragrant, which is unavailable in other cities and counties."
