Wei Yanwan's eyes moved slightly, and she slowly turned her head to look out the window.

Through the rosewood carved window lattice, Ling Yunche, dressed in a military general's uniform, was looking at her intently.

"Brother Yun Che, you look really good in this outfit. You look a lot more majestic than when you were a guard."

Wei Yanwan put down the wooden comb with a faint smile, and said to Ling Yunche as if she was greeting the neighbor brother she had not seen for a long time.

Ling Yunche said nothing, his eyes were as cold as an iceberg, and like a silent question, it pierced Wei Yanwan's heart.

"Brother Yun Che, are you still blaming Yan Wan? If I tell you that I have had my reasons for coming this far, would you believe me?"

Wei Yanwan's voice was slightly choked as she spoke cautiously.

Ling Yunche's eyes dimmed and he sighed, "I know everything.

You are unwilling to accept the fact that Concubine Feng died twice, so you want to stay in the palace, find out the truth, and avenge Concubine Feng.

I can understand all of this. But why can't you wait a little longer until I come back?

Now that I have been granted the title of Assistant Commander and have a proper official position, I can..."

"What can you do?" Wei Yanwan's voice became much colder.

"You are an official, a foreign man, and even more so a minister of the previous dynasty. The emperor hates the previous dynasty being involved with the harem the most.

If I insist on you helping me, what's the difference between that and ruining your future?"

Ling Yunche was speechless.

After a long silence, Ling Yunche asked in a hoarse voice, "Then, if I can come back earlier before you are crowned as your consort, would you be willing to take another route?

For example, follow me out of the palace and marry me as my legal wife?

That way, not only will you not have to compete with a group of concubines for your husband, you can also travel freely around the world.

If you still think it is not enough, I can also work hard to earn you a royal title and let you live a dignified life as a noble lady. "

Wei Yanwan's expression suddenly became excited, and her voice became a little louder, "Brother Yun Che, you and I both understand that I have no other choice."

After suppressing her excitement, Wei Yanwan's voice became soft again.

"Marrying you is indeed my dream. When you asked to marry me outside the Qixiang Palace that day, I was really overjoyed and happily prepared to marry you.

But that kind of joy is not the only thing I want in this life.

Compared to freedom, a legitimate wife, and an imperial decree, what I want more is power in my hands, influence behind me, and a happy life of revenge and gratitude.

If I marry you, I need to let go of all my hatred, forget the unwilling eyes that Concubine Feng looked at me with before she died, and just stay in the backyard and cook for me in a dull and cowardly manner.

Sorry, I can't do it. "

Wei Yanwan stood in front of the window, only a foot away from Ling Yunche, yet it seemed as if there was a chasm between them.

The tears flowed into the lapel of Wei Yanwan's chest like a broken string, and then quickly disappeared.

"Brother Yun Che, I have failed you in the end. I can only repay you for your kindness in my next life."

On Wei Yanwan's tender white palm, a cheap ruby ​​ring lay quietly.

It seems out of place between this magnificent palace and the pretty beauty.

"Brother Yun Che, do you think I have changed a lot?

I used to be such a dark and lowly person, but now I live in such a prosperous palace. I often feel panic, but I can't escape. "

"In my eyes, you are never gloomy." Ling Yunche looked at the ring in Wei Yanwan's hand tenderly.

“You have always been a high-flying swallow, lively and charming.

You used to be a princess of the Baoyi Neiguan family, and your family background was not bad. It was just that you were unlucky, so you were confiscated and sent to the palace, becoming a palace maid.

The Yan Wan I know would laugh heartily for a few taels of silver as a reward, and would also find some profound truths in boring books to inspire me in order to encourage me to make progress.

In my eyes, you don’t have to be afraid, you deserve the best.”

The tears in Wei Yanwan's eyes rolled around a few times, as bright and crystal as stars in the sky, embedded in the inky black night sky.

She sniffed and tried to force a sweet smile.

Then she brought two cups of sweet wine in golden cups and said in a tender voice, "Thank you, Brother Yun Che. With your words, I don't find it hard to endure the long journey in the palace.

You will be a military commander from now on. When you leave the palace today, we may never see each other again. This glass of wine is in your honor.

I hope you can get what you want in the future, marry a beautiful wife, live a life without worries and happiness. "

After saying that, Wei Yanwan raised her head and drank the wine in a very generous manner.

Seeing this, Ling Yunche also picked up his wine glass, his eyes clear, and said loudly, "I also wish that the noble Wei will have a smooth and smooth life in the future, without any regrets."

After drinking the wine, two empty golden cups fell to the window sill, like two drunk people unconsciously leaning against each other.

The smile on Wei Yanwan's lips deepened.

She raised her arms and turned around in a leisurely and playful manner. The luxurious cloak slowly fell to the ground with her movements.

Wei Yanwan smiled playfully, and with her white hands, mixed with the fragrance of the wind, she pushed away Ling Yunche's arm that was blocking his eyes.

"Brother Yun Che, do you think I look good in this brocade?"

At this time, Wei Yanwan was only wearing a gauze skirt that was thin enough to reveal her fair skin.

Below the slender neck, as tender as a lotus root, is a small mountain with graceful curves.

The golden branches embroidered on the pink bellyband were faintly visible, and looking straight down, one could glimpse the whiteness of the slender waist.

The girl's unconscious charm and her youthful and seductive eyes all touched Ling Yunche's heart.

Ling Yunche didn't dare to look and could only avert his eyes, his ears turning red with embarrassment.

Wei Yanwan seemed to be too drunk to handle the alcohol, so she leaned against the window.

Her eyes were distracted but persistent as she continued to pour wine for Ling Yunche while chattering.

"When I was working at the Sizhiku, I often ironed these gorgeous satins.

I often imagine how good I would look if I wore them one day.

But now, I wear layer after layer of clothes, but I don’t feel how comfortable or warm they are.

I just felt that these beautiful and expensive satins were as if they were sewn with countless steel needles. If I made a mistake, they would prick me so hard that I couldn't move.

Until the bone-chilling coldness had controlled my internal organs and strangled my meridians and mind.

I suddenly realized that what I had was not enough, and I wanted more..."

Wei Yanwan began to talk nonsense while drunk, with a spoiled and wanton smile on her pretty rosy face.

Unconsciously, Ling Yunche's emotions seemed to be aroused by her, and the two burning bodies were getting closer and closer, until their shadows on the wall were entangled so deeply that they could no longer be separated...

Xing'er put away the golden cup on the windowsill, quickly closed the window, concealed all traces, and quietly went to guard outside the palace door.

Inside the Chengqian Palace, between a curtain of light gauze, figures were overlapping and breathing heavily.

The waves surged, the brocade gauze swayed gently, the red candle tent was warm, covering up the spring night.
