Clear and Muddy Loss of Love

The mind is close to a demon

Qian Yuan, the housekeeper of the private house, hurriedly came to the small courtyard to report: "His Highness Zhenzhen and His Highness Zhuohua have arrived."

Qi Yan thought she heard it wrong, stood up from the stool, looked at Qian Yuan and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"

Qian Yuan: "Master, the two Highnesses have already arrived at the gate of the mansion, so go and greet them."

Qi Yan's heart beat faster, and there was a bit of sourness in the accident: I thought Nangong Jingnv didn't want to see her anymore.

She strode to the door of the room, turned back and said to Xiaodie: "A guest is coming, you wait for me here."

Xiaodie nodded, and then a trace of hope flashed in her eyes: "Is that the sister from just now?"

For some reason, Xiaodie has a very good impression of Nangong Shunv.

Qi Yan nodded, lightly patted Xiaodie on the shoulder and hurried out of the room.

Nangong Shunv supported her little sister, looking at her pale face and tired expression, her heart twisted into a bun in pain.

Qi Yan saw the two princesses standing outside the mansion from a distance, her gaze was only fixed on Nangong Jingnv, and she couldn't tolerate other people.

She has lost weight, and she seems to have grown taller compared to the last time we met...

Qi Yan stopped in her tracks and looked at Nangong Jingnv from afar.

It seems that it has been a long time.

long time no see.

These days, Qi Yan is ordered to "reflect" every day, besides accompanying Xiaodie, she shuts herself in the study and plays with wood carvings. Occasionally, the figure of Nangong Jingnv will suddenly pop into her mind. Deliberately suppressing the other party, I didn't feel how long the time passed after I got used to it.

Qi Yan stayed where she was, and looked at Nangong Jingnu unblinkingly with a pair of amber eyes, only to realize later: It has been a long time.

Those longings and emotions that had been suppressed by force overflowed from the scars on his heart in scattered pieces, so fragmented that it was difficult to grasp, and Qi Yan was at a loss as to what to do.

Nangong Jingnv half leaned on the second sister's body, with a calm expression and pretended deep eyes.

She saw Qi Yan's lips move, judging from that mouth shape, it was clearly: Your Highness...

Just like that, his eyes were red.

It's obviously two words that I don't know how many times I have to hear every day. Why does it have such magical power just by coming out of this mouth?

Nangong Jingnv exhaled shallowly, suppressing the fluctuations in her heart.

Nangong Shunv supported Nangong Jingnv, and said softly: "My brother-in-law is banned from leaving the house, let's go in."

Nangong Jingnv nodded, and the two of them crossed the threshold of the private house and walked to Qi Yan step by step.

Nangong Shunv: "Let's come and see you."

Qi Yan seemed to turn a deaf ear and didn't even blink her eyes.

Nangong Shunv sighed secretly: Judging by the appearance of these two people, it is clear that they are affectionate, how could it be so troublesome today?

Nangong Jingnv stood up straight, raised her chin, and said coldly: "Since you are wearing a sinful body, why don't you be polite when you see me?"

Nangong Shunv was stunned, what did her little sister sing?

A trace of surprise flashed across Qi Yan's eyes, and he lifted the hem of his clothes.

Nangong Jingnv's pink fists hidden under the wide-sleeved palace dress tightened as Qi Yan lowered her figure. She had resentment against Qi Yan, but she didn't want her to really bow down to herself.

Nangong Shunv: "Brother-in-law..."

But when Qi Yan's knee was about to touch the ground, she stopped abruptly.

Just like that, she raised her head with a short body, looked up at Nangong Jingnv and laughed: "Chen, I remember His Highness said..."

Nangong Jingnu's expression relaxed, and she hummed softly, "Get up."

Qi Yan smiled, and stood up straight, while Nangong Jingnv turned her head sideways, raised her eyebrows, and let go of her fist.

Nangong Shunv blinked, unable to understand what kind of riddle these two people were playing.

However, she could feel that her little sister's emotions had eased a lot.

Once, Nangong Jingnv said to Qi Yan: I don't want her to bow down to her again.

Qi Yan agreed.

In retrospect it seemed like a long time ago, and they all remembered.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Nangong Shunv took the initiative to say: "Jingnv is not feeling well, you can help her to have a rest, I don't mind walking around?"

Qi Yan frowned, and looked carefully at Nangong Jingnv: her complexion was indeed not good.

Qi Yan: "Second Sister, please help yourself."

……

The servants in the private house tactfully gave up the space, and Nangong Jingnu and Qi Yan looked at each other with a distance of three steps.

Qi Yan swayed, wanted to lean forward and then backed away, staying where she was.

Nangong Jingnv looked at her quietly, and suddenly the corner of her mouth twitched, revealing an expression of being aggrieved and about to cry.

Qi Yan panicked and strode forward: "Your Highness..."

Nangong Jingnv sniffed, her eyes were red: "Find a quiet place, I'm tired."

Qi Yan: "Okay, Your Highness, this way please."

Qi Yan made a "please" gesture, and Nangong Jingnv followed behind, dragging her long palace dress.

Qi Yan thought for a while and invited Nangong Jingnv to the bedroom: "Please sit down, Your Highness, the private house is a bit rough."

Nangong Jingnv looked around for a week, walked to Qi Yan's bed and sat down.

Qi Yan moved the stool and sat opposite Nangong Jingnv. After another long silence, Nangong Jingnv wept silently.

Qi Yan panicked again, leaned forward, raised her hand and retracted it.

Nangong Jingnv pressed her forehead against the side rail of the bed as if her strength had been exhausted, and big tears fell down.

Qi Yan felt distressed: "Your Highness...you."

Nangong Jingnv's white teeth brushed her lower lip, she choked up and said, "Qi Yan, I'm so tired."

Qi Yan sat next to Nangong Jingnu, and the pain in her eyes seemed to drip out: "What happened? If Your Highness is willing..."

Nangong Jingnv leaned on Qi Yan's shoulder, and the latter hesitantly raised his hand to wrap her shoulder.

Qi Yan: "Cry when you want to cry, say what you want to say, don't say what you don't want to say."

Hearing this sentence, Nangong Jingnv cried even more sadly.

Too many things have happened this year, this "family" is going to be separated...

Nangong Jingnu: "Qi Yan."

Qi Yan: "The minister is here."

Nangong Jingnu: "Hug me."

Qi Yan: "...Okay."

……

Since Qi Yan was ordered to contemplate behind closed doors, she dismissed half of the servants in the private house, so the whole courtyard looked a bit deserted, Nangong Shunv walked all the way and didn't see many people.

Although this private house is small, it is quiet and elegant, Nangong Shunv likes it very much.

She walked aimlessly, admiring the scenery.Unknowingly, he came to the depths of the private house - the courtyard where Xiaodie is.

Xiaodie was sitting on the stone bench in the yard with Nangong Shunv on her back, playing with the wooden rabbit carving in her hand.

Nangong Shunv was a little annoyed: Why are you here again?

Just as she was about to leave here before she was discovered, Xiaodie unexpectedly turned around without warning, and a gleam of joy burst into the eyes of Empress Nangongshu, and she stood up holding the wooden carving: "Sister!"

Nangong Shunv sighed softly: It is indecent to come but not to go.Although I have no feelings for this girl, it is not good to just leave.

The two deaf-mute maids followed Xiaodie closely to Nangong Shunv, Xiaodie couldn't deny her identity: "Have you had lunch yet, sister?"

Nangong Shunv shook her head, such a big event happened in the palace, how could there be time for dinner?

Xiaodie patted a servant girl and made a "eat" gesture. The latter nodded and took the order. Nangong Shunv's eyes flashed a trace of doubt: "Your two servants..."

Xiaodie: "They can't hear and can't speak. Usually, no one talks to me." After finishing speaking, she curled her lips aggrievedly.

The doubt in Nangong Shunv's eyes deepened: Why did Qi Yan arrange such two people to serve a concubine who was pregnant with Liujia?Seeing that her body seems to be about to give birth, isn't she afraid of accidents?

Xiaodie tugged Nan Gong Shunv's sleeve: "Sister, come and sit?"

Nangongshu frowned slightly, she couldn't bear to criticize Xiaodie's clear eyes, so she followed her.

Xiaodie sat across from Nangong Shunv, a little cramped, showing a shy smile from time to time.

Nangong Shunv was silent, she wanted to see what this "Concubine Ji" wanted to do, this time she was wearing a palace attire, couldn't the other party see it?

Xiaodie pursed her lips, and pushed the little wooden rabbit sculpture in front of Nangong Shunv: "Here. This..., um... give it to my sister."

This wood carving is Xiaodie's favorite, and she usually puts it next to her pillow even when she sleeps, and no one can touch it except Qi Yan and her.

It's no wonder that Xiaodie is like this, Qi Yan protects her very well, and in order to keep the secret, she specially recruits two deaf-mute women to serve her.Xiaodie is trapped in this yard all day long, and there is no one to talk to except Qi Yan. Nangong Shunv is the second "normal person" she sees besides Qi Yan, and she is a woman. Xiaodie treats her The impression of her is very good, and I want to be friends with her wholeheartedly.

Sharing favorite gadgets is often the most effective way for children to make friends.

Nangong Shunv glanced at the wood carving, her expression was calm, but her heart was agitated: She had already seen that the girl in front of her was mentally different from ordinary people.

Then he met Xiaodie's expectant gaze, and felt compassion.

Nangong Shunv: "Thank you, I like it very much."

Xiaodie smiled brilliantly, her slightly dark face set off her teeth whiter, and the pretty sister in front of her accepted her gift, and they became friends.

……

On the other side, the atmosphere in the bedroom was somewhat dignified.

Nangong Jingnv informed Qi Yan of the imperial decree about Concubine Hui's death and the disaster of witchcraft, she only told what she saw, and she didn't mention any creepy guesses.

After Qi Yan quietly listened to Nangong Jingnv's narration, her eyes were deep.

She stared at Nangong Jingnu and asked, "Your Highness also thinks that's the case?"

Nangong Jingnv's breathing stagnates: Sure enough, Qi Yan's thoughts are the same as her own!

"I... want to hear your opinion."

Nangong Jingnv thought that Qi Yan would definitely refuse, and she would not open her mouth until she promised to keep him a secret.

Qi Yan took a deep breath, and calmly replied: "In my opinion, there must be something hidden about this matter. Even if the disaster of witchcraft occurs, it is absolutely impossible for the instigator to be Hui... Concubine."

Nangong Jingnv sniffed: "You mean someone blamed Concubine Hui? Then why didn't the father pursue it? We can all figure it out..."

Qi Yan hooked the corners of her mouth, her expression was a little cold: "Your Highness... Is it unexpected? Or is it unwilling to think deeply?"

Nangong Jingnv's heart was already cold, she forced herself to ask: "What do you mean..."

Qi Yan: "Looking at the entire harem, how many people can know His Majesty's birthday? Besides, His Highness the First Prince has been dead for more than a year, and there are still witchcraft puppets... It's always a bit of a cover-up."

Nangong Jingnv turned her eyes away: "I don't believe it. Witch Gu is a sorcery, and my father can't use it on me!"

Qi Yan lowered her eyes: "How does Your Highness know that His Majesty's birthday is written on that doll? Have you read it? I'm afraid His Majesty is the only one who has seen it?"

With Nangong Jingnv's staring eyes, Qi Yan's deduction seems to be more in line with the facts, and it also effectively explained her previous doubts.

Nangong Jingnu: "How could it be... the second brother and the fourth brother are the royal father's flesh and blood!"

Qi Yan raised her eyes and looked at Nangong Jingnv calmly: "I'm detained in this square, and I can only see a corner of the sky when I raise my eyes... Why don't you ask yourself, Your Highness?"

Nangong Jingnv shuddered, feeling a sense of nothing to hide from.

The pair of amber eyes in front of him seemed to be able to see through everything.

My own deliberate concealment, helpless concealment...it seems that I can't escape it.

Nangong Jingnv originally thought that she was no longer Wuxia Ameng, but she found that she still couldn't find out Qi Yan's bottom, this almost demon-like mind...
