The princess and the lord are brothers and sisters

The Northern Army withdrew from Jiangxia and set off for Beijing.Jianghuai, which has been in turmoil for nearly a year, has finally returned to its former calm.Everyone was guessing the reason why Ji Yinrong withdrew his troops. With his personality, it was fine to send troops to attack if he was plotted against, but he directly pulled out the camp and returned to Beijing?Some people say that it is probably to go back and prepare for the New Year.

Yes, the new year is coming in a blink of an eye.

The city of Suzhou is full of joy, the general cleaning, the purchase of new year's goods, every household is busy, but everyone laughs happily.What the common people want is nothing but peace, and being able to celebrate the Spring Festival reunion is the greatest happiness.

In the ears are the voices of the ministers reporting their work. It is approaching the end of the year, and they have to listen to a lot of reports every day.Yang Meili sat upright, but her eyes shifted to the sky outside the window bit by bit, and all the voices disappeared at once.

Wu Yao... don't know what happened...

When the lanterns first came on, Yang Meili had a chance to catch her breath.Not letting anyone follow her, she walked alone on the deserted bluestone road, and the moonlight stretched the shadow very long.Occasionally, he turned his head, but he could no longer see the figure of that person.

Feeling so uncomfortable, Yang Meili quickened her pace and fled the garden in a hurry.Turning around the half-moon-shaped arch is the Xiaoxiang Garden where the princess lives. A few days ago, Yang Yingjun told her that he wanted to move to a quieter place so that he could compose music more conveniently.Then, regardless of her objection, he insisted on moving to such a remote courtyard without anyone serving him.

In Xiaoxiang Garden, two palace lanterns hung alone.In the deserted yard, there is a stone table and a few stone benches.A qin was placed horizontally on the stone table, a pile of paper was pressed under the qin, and there were many crumpled paper balls on the ground.

Yang Meili walked over, took out a piece of paper that was pressed down, and looked at it, but found that she couldn't understand it.

"Sister, how many times have I told you not to touch my things."

Yang Meili was startled, and looked around, but did not see Yang Yingjun.

"It's up!"

Yang Meili looked up, and she saw Yang Yingjun sitting on the eaves, holding a jar of wine in his hand, looking at her with a smile.

"Why are you climbing so high? Be careful not to fall!"

"Don't worry, your brother and I drink very well."

Yang Meili was so anxious that she looked around and found a wooden ladder in the corner, so she climbed up the wooden ladder.The glazed tiles on the roof looked fragile, and Yang Meili didn't understand how Yang Yingjun dared to sit on them.

"Oh, what are you doing clumsily climbing up?" Yang Yingjun said angrily.

"Stop talking nonsense, help me quickly!"

"How can I help you? You are so big, if one falls off, I will also suffer."

Yang Meili glared at him angrily, and climbed up to the eaves on hands and feet.Yang Yingjun couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked over to help her, and the brother and sister sat side by side on the roof.

Looking down from this position, you can see the outline of the entire Suzhou Palace.Even the moon above the head seems to be very close.Even though the wind was blowing a bit cold, Yang Meili couldn't help leaning on her brother.

"Is it cold?" Yang Yingjun shook his head helplessly, and passed the wine jar in his hand, "Drink some wine to warm up."

Yang Meili took it and took a sip, but the wine was so strong that she choked and coughed.

"What... what kind of wine is this? Why does it look like it's on fire?"

Yang Yingjun chuckled, and said: "This is the authentic burning knife. I found it after a long search." After speaking, he raised his head to the mouth of the altar and took a big mouthful.

Yang Meili looked at him, feeling a little sad.

"Brother...are you unhappy?"

Yang Yingjun's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "Why? Now there is no need to fight, and I don't need to live in Jianghuai to train troops. I drink fine wine, write music, and play the piano every day. I don't know how happy I am."

Yang Meili looked like she was about to cry: "You don't have to lie to me, I know you're not happy. You moved to such a remote place, don't you want to see me? Do you hate me?"

"Why? Fool!" Yang Yingjun raised his hand and rubbed her head, smiling softly under the moonlight: "You are my only sister, how could I hate you? I just suddenly like quietness, probably because I am old, afraid Quarrel."

Yang Meili hesitated and said, "You and Ji Yinrong..."

"By the way, sister," Yang Yingjun interrupted her suddenly, and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year, do you want to go and find Wu Yao?"

Yang Meili's heart tightened, and she unconsciously grabbed the corner of her clothes: "I... I... the year is over, and there are many things to deal with, I... I may not be able to leave..."

Seeing her flustered and bewildered, Yang Yingjun sighed silently in his heart.He stretched out his arms, pressed her head on his shoulder, and said, "Brother knows what you're afraid of, but it's not an option for you to run away like this. If... are you going to never look for her for the rest of your life?"

Yang Meili covered her face, choked up and said, "But I'm afraid...in case...in case...brother, I don't want to face it, I'd rather just be like this and don't know anything, I believe he's still alive somewhere in the world ..."

"Beautiful..."

Yang Meili sat up straight, wiped away her tears indiscriminately, and said, "It's getting late, you should go to bed earlier. By the way, don't drink too much wine, it will hurt your health."

Seeing his younger sister almost fleeing from Xiaoxiang Garden in a hurry, Yang Yingjun sighed helplessly.Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, I remembered that time in the wilderness, sitting with that person back to back by the fire.The moon at that time was just a waning moon, but it seemed brighter than tonight.

A look of sadness flashed in his eyes, Yang Yingjun raised his head and took a sip of wine, the figure sitting alone on the eaves under the moonlight was lonelier than the moonlight.

Yang Meili dreamed about Wu Yao again, and when she woke up, she found that it was still dark and the pillow was already half wet.

Missing is like a gangrene attached to the bone, it is difficult to get rid of.

The next day, I continued to listen to the ministers' reports with two deep bags under my eyes. The days went on and on, bland and boring.When I complained to my brother about being bored, I only got the reply "Go meet new friends".

Yang Meili also wants to meet new friends, but for some reason, she just can't get up and concentrate.Her identity and mentality are too different, it is really difficult to make friends who are not afraid of her and can talk to her again.My elder brother only knows to hide, drink, play the piano and compose music every day. Occasionally, when the mood comes, he will go to the brothel songfang to perform.The ministers complained about this, but Yang Meili made it clear that she didn't care about it, and they stopped mentioning it over time.

The issue of heirs is what the ministers have been paying attention to all the time. When they saw the princess moved to Xiaoxiang Garden, they thought she was thrown into the cold palace, so they wanted to take the opportunity to persuade the prince to take a concubine.The ministers tried their best to search for beauties and send them to the palace, but the prince seemed to be lacking in interest.Later they found out that although the princess moved to Xiaoxiang Garden, the prince would visit her there almost every night, but rarely stayed there overnight.

Is the relationship between the prince and the princess good?No one really knows for sure.

Occasionally, a few beautiful women who were sent to the palace by the ministers, because they were not favored by the prince, wanted to get rid of the princess, and went to Xiaoxiang Garden to visit the princess without authorization.The concubine treated them very politely, but they were all sent out of the palace as soon as they turned around.It is said that the prince knew that they were going to disturb the princess's purity and ordered them to be kicked out.Since then, no one dared to provoke the princess in the "Lenggong Palace".

On New Year's Eve, it is customary to entertain civil and military officials from the Manchu Dynasty. Although the King of Zhennan has not yet established himself as a king, the essence is almost the same.This kind of banquet is really boring, but if I don't attend, I am afraid of causing resentment from the ministers, so I want to drag Yang Yingjun with him, but Yang Yingjun has already slipped away.Yang Meili could only go to the banquet alone in resentment.

During the banquet, it was nothing more than you saying flattering words to me, you toasting me a toast and I toasting you a toast, drinking non-stop, and then everyone went to "Changyin Pavilion" to listen to plays and watch juggling, and finally watched the fireworks together.Yang Meili dozed off the whole time, but the ministers were quite happy, and it could be regarded as a successful completion of the task of "the monarch and his ministers have fun together".

It was already late at night when I returned to the palace, and the maid who served me personally said that the concubine just came to leave a message, asking the prince to eat hot pot in Xiaoxiang Garden.Yang Meili, who was half undressed, immediately put on a cloak and ran outside.

The brother and sister ate hot pot around the stove in Xiaoxiang Garden in the middle of the night, which can be regarded as keeping the New Year's Eve together.Yang Yingjun asked Yang Meili to kowtow to him to pay New Year's greetings, but was flatly refused, and was forced to give a large package of New Year's money.

"Actually, that's pretty good, isn't it?" Yang Meili didn't know why she said that suddenly, and her heart was empty after she finished speaking.

Yang Yingjun seemed to understand this sentence without beginning or end: "Yes, we have been living together as brothers and sisters for the past ten years, but nothing has changed."

Really nothing has changed?

In fact, each other knows that the other is deceiving themselves.

It seems that saying this can be comforting.

The hot pot didn't break up until the middle of the night. Not long after Yang Meili lay down, she was woken up by the maid again.It is said that it is the first day of the new year, and he has to go to court to accept the worship of civil and military officials.Yang Meili decided to go back and talk to the master of ceremonies, Shangqing, to abolish all these useless red tape.

After finally finishing the pilgrimage, sacrificing to the heavens, praying for blessings, etc., Yang Meili returned to the dormitory, and after ordering "unless the sky falls, no one is allowed to disturb her", she collapsed on the bed and fell into a dark sleep.

After waking up, it was already dark outside. Yang Meili rubbed her hungry belly and called out, "Come here."

Someone pushed the door open and walked slowly into the inner room.

Yang Meili yawned and said, "I'm hungry, let's pass on dinner."

"Yes."

Yang Meili was startled, why is it a man's voice?Since Wu Yao was gone, she was only served by maids of honor!Huo Ran raised his head and saw Wu Yao's smiling face unexpectedly.

"My lord." Wu Yao looked at her with a smile, his eyes were as bright as stars.

Yang Meili stared at him blankly, the shock in her eyes gradually turned into sadness, and tears fell down: "I was dreaming again, didn't I? Wu Yao, do you know? How cruel is such a dream to me? I don't want to Wake up, I don't want to wake up, once I wake up and find you are not there, it will be worse than death."

Wu Yao was taken aback, and hurried forward: "My lord! What's wrong with you? Did your subordinate scare you?"

Why is the dream so real today?

Yang Meili opened her eyes and looked at him carefully, it was so real!Wu Yao's facial features were no longer blurred, and she could even see a mole on the left wing of his nose.

"My lord?" Wu Yao looked a little uneasy, but the lord's reaction was too strange.

Yang Meili timidly called: "Wu Yao?"

"It's me, my lord, I'm back. I wanted to tell others, but I heard that your lord has given an order not to disturb anyone, so my subordinates have been waiting outside." Wu Yao thought for a while, and understood He smiled and said: "Today is the first day of the new year, my lord, you must have received the officials early in the morning, are you exhausted?"

Yang Meili has been sitting on the bed not daring to move, just staring at Wu Yao: "It's great, this time you can chat with me for so long, in the past, you disappeared without saying a word. "

"Ah?" Wu Yao looked puzzled, looked down and saw that the prince hadn't put on his shoes yet, so he squatted down, lifted his feet, and put cotton boots on him.

The temperature in his hands burned his ankles through the socks.Yang Meili shuddered, grabbed his hand suddenly, and stared at him in shock.

Wu Yao was taken aback: "My lord?"

Yang Meili couldn't speak a single word, only tears were falling down like crazy.

Wu Yao was so frightened that his face turned pale: "My lord? My lord? What's the matter with you? But what's wrong? I'll tell the doctor right now!"

As soon as he stood up, Yang Meili hugged him from behind.

"Didn't disappear, didn't disappear, you're real, you're real... Wu Yao, Wu Yao, you're really back, I'm not dreaming, you're really back..."

Wu Yao was hugged by her stiffly all over, feeling a little uncomfortable: "Yes, my lord, fortunately, my subordinates were able to wake up after being rescued by divine doctor Qu. It would be better to take care of him for a longer period of time, but the subordinates miss the prince, so they came back early..."

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back, it's the same when you come back... come back and raise it." Yang Meili was so excited that she couldn't speak coherently. She hugged the lost and recovered person tightly, and something collapsed in her heart. She cried out with a "wow". , completely disregarding the image.

Wu Yao was terrified and didn't know what happened. She wanted to go to the doctor, but she couldn't let go. She had no choice but to coax her.

How could he understand?The feeling of losing one of the three souls and seven souls, and now finally returning to the body.

It was the joy of regaining what was lost, the excitement of being resurrected from the dead.

It is the happiness that the empty heart is suddenly filled.
