Heroine’s Road to Becoming Scum: The twenty-third bowl of soup (3)
Taking advantage of the night, Yun Zhiyun slipped to the cold palace, avoiding all the guards and palace servants who were on duty. He first walked around the hall, but did not see Lu Nong. When he was wondering where Lu Nong went at night, she walked slowly from not far away: "It's so late, why are you here?"
"Where have you been?" he asked, frowning.
"I couldn't sleep, so I walked around, but there was nothing to see in the cold palace, so I came back after a walk." Lu Nong said with a smile. "How about you, why are you here so late? Aren't you mad at me?"
Yun Zhi squinted at her: "You know I'm mad at you."
Lu Nong smiled lightly with his sleeves over his lips: "You forgot, I grew up watching you."
Yun Zhi doesn't like to hear these words, why does she always like to use age to widen the distance between each other? And she still looked as young and beautiful as he was when he was seven, and the two couldn't be more compatible when they stood together.
In fact, Yun Zhi is reluctant to admit that when she is 18 years old, standing with Lu Nong sometimes looks like her brother... But that's fine. If she looks more mature and stable, can Lu Nong belong to her? yourself?
He smiled and asked Lu Nong: "Guess what I want to say to you?"
"I don't know." Lu Nong sat on the stone bench under the peach tree and invited him to sit and admire the moon together. "But it should be something very important, otherwise you won't be so nervous."
Yun Zhijun blushed, he was used to being shameless in front of Lu Nong when he was a child, but he was a little unaccustomed to suddenly let him be serious, so he coughed twice, and was about to confess when he heard Lu Nong say a low voice : "People say that the sunset is the end of the world, and you can't see home if you look at the end of the world."
"Are you homesick?" Yun Zhi asked worriedly.
"Hmm."
"If you're homesick, then go back?" he volunteered. "I can take you out of the palace, and you won't come back! If you want to see the scenery of the mountains and rivers, we will go to see it together. If you want to go home, I will accompany you back, okay? And although the sunset is beautiful, the rising sun is even more exciting. People’s hearts are more alive!”
"Oh, like a child." Lu Nong was amused by the seriousness in his words, and then sighed softly. "I'm never going back."
Her tone was inexplicable sadness and nostalgia, but Yun Zhi didn't believe it: "Why don't you go back? Don't your family refuse to see you?"
"...I don't have any family anymore. My family...all died." Lu Nong looked up at the moon. "It's been a long time... it's been a long time." She was about to forget after a long time.
She's used to not letting herself think, to remember, that way, the pain will be less. But this path was chosen by herself, and she will never regret it.
"You won't be alone in the future." Yun Zhi suddenly held her hand with a serious look, "I won't leave you alone."
"Zhi'er is the best." Lu Nong smiled.
Yun Zhi said: "You don't look good when you laugh like this, don't laugh if you don't want to laugh. Do you also need to disguise in front of me?" He asked seriously, "Nong Nong, I like you, you are my wife , okay?"
Lu Nong took a deep breath, she wanted to cry and laugh, so the expression on her face looked a little weird, but in Yun Zhi's opinion, no one is more beautiful than her. "...Our identities cannot be together."
"I know, it doesn't matter." Yun Zhi said firmly. "I can be a prince, we leave together and never come back."
"But I think you'll be a good emperor." Lu Nong's gentle gaze almost went into his soul. "You fought for two years, during which you must have witnessed a lot of deaths. You must know how the poor people lived. Today, the emperor is only asking for immortals, but he doesn't think about political affairs. Really, the wine and meat of Zhumen are stinky, and the road is frozen to death. Don't you have ideals and aspirations when you see these?"
Yunzhi is speechless. some. When he was in the frontier, he was used to seeing death and the miserable life of the common people, but at the same time, the concubine and emperor in the palace had supreme enjoyment! The people in the famine were so hungry that they ate leaves and gnawed the bark, and even wild vegetables could not be found in the fields, and the concubines in the palace used a good bird's nest to rinse their mouths and thought that the bird's nest was not cooked enough.
My father is not a good emperor. During his reign, his political performance has been getting worse and worse. If this continues, there may be peasants who will rise up.
"You will be a good emperor." Lu Nong believed in Yun Zhi very much. "No one is better than you. The emperor only has two sons. If you don't want to be the emperor, you have to let the first prince do it. Would you like to? Even if you want to, you don't care about the throne, but the first prince becomes the emperor, and the people still Have a good time?"
Yun Zhi was silent. The elder brother seems to be gentle and elegant, but he is actually the most ruthless. In his eyes, human life is not life. When he was three years old, he knew that he would point to the unpleasant palace maid and say kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill and kill. It only treats human life like a mustard, without the slightest love for the people.
The father is fainting. If the eldest brother becomes the emperor, he is a tyrant. None of them are wise rulers, and they are not suitable to control this already riddled country.
"...Even if I become emperor in the future, I only want you alone."
"In what name?" Lu Nong asked softly. "I can't be your wife, and I can't stand by your side righteously. Zhi'er, when you grow up, you don't need me anymore."
"Is that why you are becoming more and more indifferent to me? Do you want to reject me and let me leave you?" Yun Zhi asked, "Nong Nong, I just don't say it, I'm not a fool, don't always say it again and again Is it that hard for you to push me away from you, hold me once in a while, and accept me? You love me, I know!"
Lu Nong's eyes were startled.
"Your eyes can't deceive people at all. Every time you see me, you are brighter than anyone else." Regardless of Lu Nong's stiffness, he held Lu Nong's face and gently rubbed her lips with his fingertips Petal and pink cheeks, "Nong Nong, we love each other, shouldn't we be together? I want to watch the sunrise with you, hold your hand openly, and give you all the best in the world. So Don't reject me, don't push me away, accept me, hug me."
How many people in the world can be in love with each other?
Lu Nong stared at him for a long time, and finally realized that the little boy who was quietly hiding in the cold palace and crying because he missed his mother has grown into a big man.
It's the same and different from the person she remembered.
She gently covered his large hand and kissed the palm of his hand.
That night, Yun Zhi did not leave.
The next morning, on Leng Gong's bed, the two embraced and kissed, their ears and temples rubbing together, like a tree and a vine, intertwined with life and death, unwilling to be separated. Yun Zhi whispered love words, and Lu Nong listened quietly. When he said that the two of them were going to live forever, she laughed: "Life is too long, I only need one life."
She does not dare to be greedy, nor is she qualified to be greedy.
"I'm going to be together forever, I dare to swear that I will only love you forever." Yun Zhi kissed her lips, not wanting to be separated from her for a moment.
Lu Nong closed his eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was light and happy. She has achieved what she dreamed of. People are just so greedy. When she couldn't find him, she only wanted to find him, and she would be satisfied when she saw him well. Now that she found it, she begged God to let her live a little longer, let her see him more, and live another day.
Reluctant, really reluctant.
I don't want to be separated, can I just not be separated? Lu Nong hugged Yun Zhi back and said, "It's time for you to get up, go back to your bedroom while the sky is still dark, pack up and change your clothes, don't you have something to tell the emperor?"
"...How do you know?" After asking this sentence, Yun Zhi smiled. "We really have a good understanding of each other."
Lu Nong smiled: "Get up."
When he left, he really couldn't bear her, and wished to make her smaller and fit her into his chest, so that even if he was talking to his father, he could touch her and kiss her, and he didn't want to separate for a second. Love comes too naturally, too naturally, and it is too late to refuse and doubt.
He fell in love and couldn't help himself.
This year, there was a locust plague in the northwest area. The emperor sent many imperial ministers to go there, but they all came back without success. Yun Zhi planned to take over the job himself. , but I learned a lot of cure methods, so I wanted to try it. Because the plague of locusts was too great, a plague was caused for some reason. Both disasters were fatal, but they gathered together. The emperor was already worried that his hair was gray, and there was really nothing he could do.
According to what the eldest prince Yun Zan said, he would simply lock the patient in the city and burn the city! Once the source of the plague is cut off, it will naturally be fine. As for the locust plague...you can slowly think of a way.
If there is really no way out, the emperor will definitely follow Yun Zan's proposal. After all, it is more cost-effective to die for a city's people than to die for more people, isn't it?
How can the emperor ignore the life and death of the people like this? Yun Zhi didn't want to see such a thing happen, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the northwest. The emperor has always loved this young son, and he was reluctant to give up, so he would refuse. It's just that the words of refusal have not been spoken, but the eldest prince has followed, saying that he is willing to join the second prince on this imperial envoy and discuss the matter of the northwest together.
The emperor is worried now. He only has two sons. How can they be allowed to pass through such a dangerous place? If they have something good or bad, who will his throne be passed on in the future?
So he sternly refused, but unfortunately the two princes insisted, and finally the emperor surrendered.
