Embers

After dinner, Shao Yun woke up.

Without any entourage, she appeared at the gate of Qinghe Hall so quietly.He knew that he was angry with Yu Jin, and he knew that that person didn't like him like this, but the day and night thoughts were almost driving him crazy.

It was an unspeakable pain and longing.

Want to see, can not see.Want to say, no one listens.Think about the past, no one to share.

I was willful once and insisted on asking him to come over.

The ten thousand zhang high throne is like a chain full of clamps. Once it is up, it is difficult to leave. The more you struggle, the deeper it will penetrate into the flesh and blood, binding people to pieces.

Hiding behind the gauze curtain, through the faint candlelight, he stared at that person obsessively.

A perfect side profile, snow-white hair, and a green robe.

What a good-looking person.

After three years of lingering, I should have gotten used to his appearance, but after a few months, there will still be a kind of surprise when we meet for the first time.

Yu Jin, Yu Jin, I admire you very much, do you know that?

I miss you so much, you know?

I can't bear without you, you know that!

Roaring silently in his heart, he took a light breath and raised his hand to press his burning chest.

"Yun Qi, no, Your Majesty?"

He froze, turned around, Li Mei was standing behind him and looking at him, holding a pot of steaming tea in his hand.

Inexplicably, he started to panic in his heart, but at least he was calm enough on the surface.Shao Yunqi wanted Li Mei to keep quiet, not to let that person know that he was here now, he knew that he was still angry, but he hadn't figured out a way to make him happy.

But obviously, it was impossible for Ember not to hear such a sound suddenly resounding in the dead and silent palace.He put down the book in his hand and raised his head slightly to look over here.

The eyes are distant and indifferent.

Shao Yunqi felt tightness in his chest, and said dryly, "I've come to see you."

Ember looked past him and landed on Li Mei who was behind him.

Neglected deliberately and naturally.

"I know you're still angry." As he said that, Shao Yunqi walked up to Ember from behind the curtain, clenched his fists, and looked down at him: "I did something wrong, you can punish me however you want, beat me, scold me, I am willing, or whatever you want, I can give you! As long as I can do it!"

Ember's mocking eyes lingered on his face, and said lightly: "What if I want to leave?"

Shao Yun froze.

After a while, he said with embarrassment on his face, "Except for this, everything else is fine."

Ember slightly raised the corner of her mouth, said nothing, lowered her eyelashes, wondering what she was thinking.

"Yu Jin..."

"Yu Jin, can you take another look at me..."

"Besides leaving, I can do anything else, the throne, the country, I am willing to do whatever you want!"

Ember got up directly and went inside.

Shao Yun froze in place for a long, long time.

Li Mei watched all this from behind, sighed softly, and came to pack up the books that Ember hadn't packed yet.

"Is it true that I was wrong this time?"

A low voice sounded, with a hint of choking.

After all, Li Mei didn't have such a hard heart, and said softly: "Maybe he didn't blame you at all, he was just tired of living."

Shao Yunqi was taken aback: "Why?"

"You haven't seen him before." Li Mei said indifferently, "When you saw him, he had already changed. If you have seen him before, you won't be able to bear to hurt him like this again."

"What... was he like before?"

Li Mei took a deep look at him, and said slowly: "To bear the heaviest responsibility in the world, to bear the most painful injury in the world."

"When he finally started to stay away from the past and prepare to live the rest of his life peacefully, he met you."

That's all for this.

Shao Yunqi walked out of the Hall of Qinghe in a daze, raised his head, looked at the sky full of stars and the bright moon, and felt a sharp pain in his chest.

He staggered a few steps, stopped suddenly, squatted down, and covered his face with his hands.

That night, Shao Yunqi had a dream.

Familiar as an old event, but inexplicably makes people want to cry.

It was a vague shadow, with black hair and white clothes, tall and tall, although he couldn't see his face clearly, he could still feel the shocking and peerless elegance.

He just stood on the edge of the cliff, with the wind blowing his hair gently.

I desperately wanted to call out his name, but no matter what, I couldn't make a sound.

But for sure, it was him.

It is the person engraved in my heart.

But what is his name?

Why can't I remember it all of a sudden.

"You shouldn't have locked me up like this."

The man opened his lips lightly and breathed out such a sentence.

"I... can't live with you, I..."

The more anxious I want to explain, but I don't know where to start.

The man walked step by step, and he could feel the unique silence and coldness on his body through the hazy fog.

"Look, if you don't let me go, I will be in such pain."

As he said that, the mist gradually faded, and except for the face, the lines of the clothes on the man's body became clearly visible.Shao Yunqi stared in a daze, watching a gust of wind blow by and lift his clothes.

As far as the eye can see, there is not a piece of intact skin!

Terrible festering spread and spread on his body, black blood flowed along the texture of the muscles.

"you!"

"Do you know how much it hurts?"

The man's voice rang in my ears, not shrill or sad, but heartbreaking.

Shao Yunqi couldn't help shaking, and cold tears overflowed his eyes.

"Did I make you like this...then I...I..."

"I let you go!"

The last four words were almost screamed out.

The man seemed to nod his head slightly, and then drifted away in an instant. Shao Yunqi raised his hand subconsciously, but he didn't even grab a piece of his clothes.

Just watched him get farther and farther away from him.

then.

The man disappeared at the end of the cliff.

"Do not--!"

Shao Yunqi's expression changed in an instant, he ran over and looked down the cliff.

He found that he could see the bottom of the cliff clearly.

You can also clearly see the man's torn appearance.

With his face down, he still couldn't see clearly, but the scattered limbs and blood flowing were clearly visible.

"No!"

Shao Yunqi woke up almost immediately.

The night was still long, and the lights in the palace were still brightly lit, and several court ladies were watching carefully when they heard the voice.

He sat up with difficulty, panting heavily, and wiped the cold sweat off his brow.

"Your Majesty, you..."

The maid's words were stopped by his slightly raised hand.

It took him a long time to distinguish between dream and reality.

This is his bedroom, it is night now, the man is falling asleep in the Qinghe Hall, everything is not as he dreamed.

That person is still alive.

How could you have such a dream?

He took a long breath and closed his eyes.

But the last scene I saw was playing on a loop in my mind.

The man's hair was disheveled and he was lying on the ground in pieces.

Can't see face.

That is, there are many possibilities.

For example, in fact, that is me.

And that person is simply a person on the edge of a cliff.

Wei Wei leaned over to watch all this, indifferent and compassionate.
