90 Days of Spring: Fifty-third day
Under the silent corridor, the breeze whipped up the vines, and the green plants separated the two people into two ends, and there was no sound for a while.
When Miaomiao thought of Wei Ling being stewed into fish soup, she couldn't help mourning, tears overflowed, welling up in her eyes, dripping wet tears on her cheeks. She didn't expect Yang Fu to appear suddenly, she was flustered for a moment, and wanted to raise her hands to cover her eyes, but she was holding a porcelain basin in her hand, she was reluctant to put it down, she could only cry and look at him.
There was a blur in front of her eyes, she couldn't see Yang Fu's expression clearly, she could only see him standing where he was, motionless.
Yesterday Yang Ting stayed in the palace, Yang Fu came to visit him, he did not expect to see such a scene. Before he got close, Miaomiao rushed out, looking extremely helpless at that moment, she bumped into his line of sight blankly, allowing him to see the most bizarre scene in the world.
Yang Ting's eyes were as deep as the sea, and his eyes were dazzled by beads all over the floor. He looked at Miaomiao, taking a panoramic view of her every move.
A person walked out from the main room, Yang Ting stopped a few steps away, "Why did you take my king's soup?" Looking forward, he greeted with a smile, "Fourth brother is here too."
The sound fell, and the surroundings were so quiet that he realized something was wrong, and walked back and forth between the two of them, "You..."
Could it be that they are bickering, why does the fourth brother look so ugly?
Just as he was about to ask, he was caught by white beads all over the place, and asked in surprise, "Where did these pearls come from? Why did they throw them on the ground at random."
Rao is that the Seven Kings have seen more and cherish antiques, but they have never seen so many pearls rolling to the ground. He took a rough look and found that the color and shape belonged to the upper class, and one was precious.
When Miaomiao heard footsteps behind her, she came back to her senses, turned around and ran to the other side like a rabbit startled by the sound of horseshoes.
In front is the gate of the palace, and there are servants guarding the gate, and you can only go out if you need the prince's order.
"Miaomiao!" A voice with hidden anger stopped her.
She shivered violently and turned abruptly. There was absolutely no way for Wutong Pavilion to go back, so she simply ran forward in suspense, regardless of the direction, until she stopped outside a crabapple garden.
Looking at the blooming crabapple inside, she broke in without thinking. The courtyard has been left unattended for a long time, and a lot of weeds have grown on the ground. There is a small room in the southwest corner of the courtyard for people to take a rest. Panting, she pushed open the door and slammed it shut.
The fish soup in the bowl was spilled a lot while she was running, and the clothes were covered with greasy soup, but she didn't realize it, and carefully placed it on the small table.
The wind had blown her eyes dry long ago, and she cried in a hoarse voice, "Wei Ling, how could you..."
Wei Ling naturally did not respond, she became more and more sad, and sat on the bench blankly, feeling extremely lonely for a moment. Her heart was forcibly split into two pieces, and her vision was once again blurred by tears. It was all her fault. She didn't take a good view of Wei Ling, and let someone make a decision on him.
Thinking that he was almost drunk by Yang Ting, Miaomiao was startled, and even became annoyed towards the Seven Kings. She must find out who killed Wei Ling and avenge him.
"I'm sorry..." Miaomiao choked up, her grief was uncontrollable, and she whimpered while holding the celadon porcelain bowl.
Thinking about what Yang Fu saw just now, she was even more at a loss. He must have regarded her as a monster, otherwise his tone would not have been so severe.
Thinking of this, she shrinks back, not daring to go out at all, and only prays that people outside will never find this place and let her hide quietly.
After crying enough, she sniffed and wiped away the tears from her eyes with her sleeve, her eyes became red and swollen, like two walnuts. There was no sound outside, so there should be no one there. She wanted to take Wei Ling to be buried in the courtyard, so she sneaked outside the door with a porcelain bowl in her hand. After making sure that there was no one, she quickly came to a crabapple tree and dug it up with her bare hands. A small pit in which Wei Ling's fish body was buried.
Covered with soil, Miaomiao patted it several times, but the movements became slower and slower, and finally she stared blankly at her subordinates.
Wei Ling who has taken care of her since she was a child, Wei Ling who has been with her for life, Wei Ling who has a bad mouth but a kind heart... Her dearest Wei Ling. I will never hear him call herself "Liu Shui" again, Miaomiao almost cried again, but there was a human voice in the distance, approaching here, she quickly withdrew her thoughts, and hid in that small house again .
This house is simple and desolate, and it has been in disrepair for a long time. There are layers of cobwebs in it, and no one would think that she is here.
Miaomiao huddled behind the desk, not daring to make any movement. Who are those people, are they appointed by the Four Kings? What would they do with her if they caught her?
After a long time, the sound of people gradually faded away, and there was no movement in the courtyard. Miaomiao was deeply buried on her knees, her small body trembling in the shadows.
Now that Wei Ling is gone, who else will protect her and advise her? Where should she go?
Miaomiao's sadness came from it, overflowing with weak whimpers like small animals, and she blamed herself more and more. It was her fault from the beginning to the end. If she hadn't insisted on getting to the shore, there would have been no incidents, and Wei Ling would not have died. She was the one who killed Wei Ling.
Miaomiao hammered her head in resentment, "It's all your fault!"
It's all because she fell in love with Yang Fu. She didn't belong to her in the first place. She disobeyed the laws of heaven just to fulfill her extravagant wish, but in the end she harmed the people closest to her.
For the first time, Miaomiao had doubts about this relationship, and felt withdrawn.
*
In the west of the setting sun, the light in the room became more and more dim, and the remaining afterglow passed through the gossip window and cast it on the girl in the corner.
Miaomiao hadn't eaten for a day, and her stomach was rumbling with hunger, and she couldn't hold it anymore. It's not an option to stay here all the time, she has to find a way to get out and leave the palace out of everyone's sight.
After waiting for a while, the sun has completely set. Miaomiao supported the wooden table and stood up, squatting on the ground for a long time, her legs were already numb, she staggered violently, and hit her head against the wall with a thud. She clutched her forehead in pain, "Woo..."
It hurts so much.
After a long delay, she slowly moved to the door after her legs were able to walk. First stick it on the door panel to listen to the movement outside, and after confirming that there is no sound, slowly pull open the closed mullion door. Octagonal lanterns were lit in the mansion, and the faint light was projected on the door, so she could clearly see the person in front of her.
Yang Fu was at the door, his deep eyes stared at her, he didn't know how long he stood here.
Miaomiao was stunned, her first reaction was to step back and close the door, but Yang Fu moved faster than her, raised his hand to block the mullion door, and approached her step by step.
Miaomiao was flustered until her back was pressed against the wooden table, and she could no longer take a step back, "My lord..."
Yang Fu remained silent, looking down at the teardrops all over the floor, shining shimmering light in the dim room.
His face was expressionless, Miaomiao couldn't see through his thoughts at all, tried to escape from the other side, but was locked even more firmly by him. Yang Fu supported the edge of the table with both arms, shackled her in a world, and looked down at her, "Miaomiao, do you think this king is a fool?"
Miaomiao's heart beat suddenly, she lowered her head and shook silently, "No."
Yang Fu lifted her chin, "Then how do you explain all this?"
She was forced to meet his gaze, and bumped into his black pupils unexpectedly, as if she was going to be swept away by the depth in his eyes, and she was speechless.
It took a long time to say: "I'm not human..."
Yang Fu's pupils tightened.
She stood in front of her with her head bowed, like a child who has done something wrong, obediently admitting her mistake to him. "Sorry, I... lied to you."
At that time Yang Fu asked her gently: "Miaomiao, are you human?"
Although she struggled, she still lied to him, she said I was.
Yang Fu's eyebrows were lowered, his aura was frightening, he stared at her in disbelief, as if he wanted to see through her. He opened his lips and asked in a low voice, "Then what are you?"
Miaomiao tightly closed her lips, refusing to say any more.
Their mermaids are rare, and it is hard to find one in a sea area. If human beings know of their existence, one can imagine the disaster in the future. Miaomiao pushed him, as if she was telling him, and she was also telling herself, "Please let me go... I will leave today and never show up again. Please, don't tell anyone..."
Yang Fu's face suddenly sank, he grabbed her wrist, "What did you say?"
Miaomiao was puzzled, "I beg you..."
It wasn't this sentence, Yang Fu dragged her out without saying a word, feeling unprecedentedly angry. His pace was too big for Miaomiao to keep up with, but she didn't dare to tell him to slow down, so she trotted behind him, her wrist hurt from him, "My lord, let me go..."
From her angle, she could only see Yang Fu's side face, which was cold and serious. She was so afraid of Yang Fu that she didn't dare to speak.
Yang Fu led her back to Wutong Pavilion without saying a word. Su Yue Haoyue had been looking for her for a day, and was watching her in fear, seeing her come back with the four kings, they were all relieved, and hurriedly greeted her with smiles.
"Prince, girl..."
But seeing Yang Fu's expressionless face and the strange atmosphere between the two of them, they immediately fell silent and retreated to the side with discernment.
Yang Fu brought her back to the room, let go of her wrist, and saw a circle of red marks on it, showing how strong he was. He looked at her silently for a moment, and was about to leave, but stopped suddenly, "I remember, you kept the jade pendant and pearls in the money bag when you were in the other courtyard?"
Miaomiao was shocked and speechless.
After a while, he bent his lips and said with a smile: "It seems that since then, you have been deceiving me. Miaomiao, you are very capable."
Miaomiao stood on the spot, looking at his straight back, then closed her eyes and pursed her lips.
Before leaving, Yang Fu told the maid waiting outside the door: "Take care of her these few days, and don't let her take a step out of the hospital. If there is anything wrong, you two are the only ones to ask."
The two servant girls nodded vigilantly, "Follow the prince's order."
Miaomiao heard it too, she hurried out, "No!"
He imprisoned her here, making her uneasy for no reason. Miaomiao tried to catch up with him, but was stopped by two people in front of the door, "Girl, the prince just said..."
Miaomiao resisted two or three times, but was stopped in the end. She gritted her teeth in frustration, angry and annoyed.
Not long after, several guards were sent from Wutong Pavilion, and they stayed at the front and back doors respectively. Miaomiao didn't know about this matter, and if she knew, she might be even more panicked.
She didn't know Yang Fu's plan, so she was even more disturbed.
He was really angry just now, otherwise he wouldn't treat her like that. But he knew he was not human, so why did he keep her?
Miaomiao thought for a long time to no avail, Suyue brought meals at night, she was already hungry, she didn't resist, and obediently filled her stomach.
After eating and drinking, she was worried and worried all day, and she fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.
One night without dreams, the morning sun outside the window pierced her eyes, Miaomiao opened her eyes sleepily, her mind was empty for a moment. She sat up and was about to get out of bed to pour water, when she raised her eyes, she froze.
I saw a person sitting behind the round table, dressed in a black robe, with clear eyebrows and a haughty expression, who else could it be except Wei Ling?
