After being homeless, he was picked up by God and brought home to be his husband.

"Send everyone out these days. Don't let anyone disturb him anymore. Let's rest for a while first."

Xijin washed his hands in the copper basin. He was smelling strongly of medicine. He picked up a towel to wipe away the water stains and said, "Don't mention that to him again. Avoid it if you can."

Eunuch Li responded repeatedly. Chu Yitang couldn't live without anyone. He was always waiting on him. He hadn't slept for two days in a row. He sighed and said, "How can your majesty be willing to let you go? I'm afraid that your majesty can't let you go." .”

Xijin put the kerchief on the edge of the copper basin, put down his rolled-up sleeves, and walked out:

"As time goes by, there is nothing he can't let go of. Others can let it go. What can't he do?"

Eunuch Li was stunned when he heard this. He also knew that Xijin's tone was not kind. He couldn't say more, so he could only send Xijin out of the side hall of Wuchen Palace.

There were no candles in the bedroom, and the window was open. Outside the window, a bunch of irises bloomed last night. The fragrant fragrance of the irises filled the room. Chu Yitang looked at the light outside the window and turned over the copybooks one by one on the couch.

There were some rice papers stacked on the table, one by one, neat and smooth, with vigorous writing. Chu Yitang held one of them, and his fingertips brushed the handwriting with nostalgia, which made it look even more pale against the black ink.

These are Lan Yu's copybooks from childhood to college. They were originally kept in Yulin Palace. Chu Yitang was reluctant to part with them and moved them back to his study. He was used to looking at them at night when he couldn't sleep. He looked at each one. Read every word.

But he liked one of them the most. It was written the night Lan Yu had an argument with him last time and fled to the Southern Wilderness. If he didn't lose his temper with him, he would vent his anger by copying words. He turned over those three words over and over again. Although the writing is gentle, the writing style is still gentle.

In the past, he didn't know what it meant to see things and miss people, but after he left, the only things he was left to miss were these dead things.

With a bracelet on his snow-white wrist, Chu Yitang leaned against the window edge and smelled the fragrance of iris. The leaves were still wet with dew and the petals were bright. He stretched out his hand to fiddle with it, and the cold dew fell on his fingertips, sliding down and dripping into the dark soil.

"Your Majesty, Immortal Lord Mu Shan wishes to see you."

Outside the hall, Eunuch Li knocked on the door and asked softly: "I said I have something important to tell you. I can't delay it. Do you want to tell it in?"

Chu Yitang was still fiddling with the leaves. He had slept for too long and his mind was still groggy. After a long time, he said: "Let him in."

"Yes."

The door of the palace was pushed open, a few rays of light fell into the palace, and the door was quietly closed again. Mu Shan entered the palace, bowed and knelt in the darkness in front of the door where the light was not visible:

"I am here to see your majesty, Mu Shan."

Chu Yitang retracted his hand. He was wearing a plain white robe with the outer robe gathered around his shoulders. Under the light, his skin showed an almost transparent porcelain white.

"What's the matter?"

Mu Shan knelt down and lowered his head and replied: "This matter concerns your Majesty and Immortal Lord Lanyu. It involves a lot. I dare not hide it and not report it."

Mentioning Lan Yu, Chu Yitang turned his eyes sideways. There was bitterness in his throat, his voice was dry and hoarse, and his face was full of dejection:

"Get up first."

Mu Shan responded, and then stood up. He stepped onto the cashmere blanket spread in the hall, walked up to it, took out an object from his sleeve, and placed it gently on the table.

"Your Majesty, please take a look."

Chu Yitang moved his eyes, but froze in place the moment he saw the object clearly. His pupils were trembling, and his light eyes were red, as if crying blood.

That's a flower rope.

He made it with his own hands during the war, and sent it to Lan Yu with the letter in it, so as to relieve his pain of lovesickness.

Why is it in Mu Shan's hands?

The brow bone was forced to turn red, and Chu Yitang felt that his heart was clogged. He forced himself to look at Mu Shan's face, and his lips moved:

"Where did you get it?"

"This is the token handed over to me by Immortal Lord Lanyu."

Mu Shan's expression did not change, he met Chu Yitang's eyes and said slowly:

"To obtain the Marriage Card, you must obtain physical evidence as proof. Immortal Lord Lanyu will hand this to me as a token."

His breathing was stopped, but Chu Yitang suddenly didn't dare to listen. He felt that what Mu Shan said was not words, but sharp swords that made him miserable, cutting his flesh and blood, and dripping blood into pillars.

"He came to me."

Mu Shan hid in the light and darkness, the light outside the window was divided here, and cast light and shadow on his sleeves. He spoke plainly and stated the facts without being humble or arrogant.

When Lan Yu defected to Tianjing, Mu Shan also heard about it, but he did not expect that Lan Yu would return to Tianjing and find him.

Mu Shan will never forget that scene.

The silver glow was carved into the gaps between the branches and leaves of the laurel. Lan Yu stood in the yard, his body covered with lonely moonlight, as if he had fallen into the deep black sea. The brilliance was no longer there, and the young man was no longer as dignified as before. He pursed his lips. , there was even a hint of begging in the words.

He said.

Can I trouble you to remove the marriage card from my hit?

Mu Shan was stunned. He didn't understand why Lan Yu asked him to do this.

Just because the Marriage Card is destined by destiny and corresponds to the right destiny, if you take the Marriage Card by force, you will not only have to bear the backlash, but if there is a mistake, the destiny will not return to the right place, and you will probably be alone and miserable forever.

Lan Yu clenched the ring on his knuckles tightly, but his expression was unexpectedly calm.

"I am willing to take the marriage card, and it has nothing to do with others. I also ask the Immortal Lord to help me with this favor. I am willing to spend my whole life cultivating myself, and I only ask the Immortal Lord to help me."

As soon as the words fell, Mu Shan seemed to understand why he had reached this point in this confrontation. He knew that Lan Yu had not only made a good plan, but the backlash was nothing to him. I just want my wish to be fulfilled so that I can let go and leave without worries.

But how could Mu Shan be willing to pay him?

Lan Yu asked him for help for the last time, and Mu Shan was still willing to give it a try for him even though he couldn't bear it.

The pain of forcible separation is unbearable. The marriage cards correspond to each other. If one party is destroyed, the other party's marriage card will also be separated. However, the backlash between the two is so severe that Lan Yu almost died on the spot.

Mu Shan was powerless. He could only watch Lan Yu suffer the pain all by himself. Even though he was in great pain, he never took a step back from the beginning to the end.

Having said this, everything is now revealed.

Chu Yitang suddenly understood why Lan Yu wanted to take down the marriage card.

Just because love is related to marriage, if the right relationship is taken away, then both parties will forget the past and this marriage. The backlash will only be borne by one person, and the other party will not suffer any losses and can also reconnect and love each other for a lifetime.

Lan Yu was using this method to ensure his health and safety for the rest of his life.

The blood all over his body was completely solidified at this moment. Chu Yitang arched his back, almost unable to make a sound in pain. He had never been so out of control in front of outsiders. But every word in Mu Shan's mouth seemed to be a dose of poison. From then on, The moment he took it, his body was completely eroded. Tears welled up in his eyes, rolled down in big drops, and flowed into the corner of his lips, which was astringent and bitter.

Only now did he know why Lan Yu wrote that letter to him, why he asked him to find his beloved again and live in love for a lifetime, and why he wrote that letter of separation. He was paving the way for him, paving it for him with his own hands. Every step of the way he will take in the future, he is unwilling to let him be alone, so he would rather suffer the pain of being single forever in exchange for his half-life happiness.

"Because your majesty is so obsessed with you, you can't forget the past even if you take the marriage card. Immortal Lord Lanyu is resurrected, so naturally he won't remember those things anymore."

His eyes fell on the flower rope, and Mu Shan unconsciously recalled what he had asked Lan Yu when they were at the lake.

"Xianjun Lanyu, if you don't remember anything, have you ever thought about starting from the beginning?"

The young man was looking at the small carp swimming in the lake. He put his fingers into the lake water and circled the colorful tail of the carp. After hearing this, he thought for a while and said:

"Of course I will choose to start from scratch, but it will have to wait until I finish some things."

"What's going on?"

"I'm looking for someone, that person is very important to me," Lan Yu held his chin, looking at the large green lotus leaves in the lake. When he mentioned this, he seemed a little shy, and his earlobes turned red, but Still determined, "Let's start over when we find him. Some things cannot be forgotten. Maybe he is looking for me too?"

Mu Shan sat next to him, looking at the young man's handsome face as if carved from jade, silently clasping the willow leaf plucked from his shoulder in his hand.

In fact, he was the first to see him in the bustling city during the Dragon Boat Festival that night.

He was on the other side of the river, watching him writing on the river lantern, then entering the river lantern into the water, and finally going around in circles, winding around a lotus lantern among thousands of lights, and flowing away side by side.

Maybe he should have known at that time that there are some things that cannot be changed even in his lifetime.

There was a soft golden light in his hand, he touched the boy's eyebrows and smiled softly.

"Well, you're right, he hasn't forgotten you."

As his thoughts changed, Mu Shan raised his lips slightly. The sky outside the window was very beautiful, and the irises were blooming beautifully, like butterflies spreading their wings and ready to fly. He said softly:

"Go find him."

"He's waiting for you."
