Qingjiang Yin

Chapter 23

The early dynasty was disbanded, and all officials belonged to their own divisions.Li Zhenyuan also left with the flow of people.

"Li Zhenyuan!" The woman scolded coquettishly.

Li Zhenyuan knew in his heart that it must be Princess Yuanxin, so he had no choice but to turn around and was slapped harshly by the woman.

His face was burning instantly, it was unexpected that the princess could beat someone so fiercely.

Li Zhenyuan smiled wryly, today he blatantly refused to marry in the court, even if Yuan Xin wanted to tear him apart, it would not be an exaggeration.

The princess was petite, raised her head, and glared at the tall Li Zhenyuan.

"How dare you!" Yuan Xin said in a trembling voice, "How dare you reject me! What Chu's daughter is talking nonsense!"

She was angry and impatient, her cheeks were flushed, her apricot eyes were wide open, and she did not see any of her usual charm.

Li Zhenyuan had no choice but to bow, and said: "Your lord has learned a lesson, I already have someone in my heart."

He paused for a moment, looked at Yuan Che standing behind Yuan Xin, and saw that his face was pale and all blood was gone. Li Zhenyuan's handsome and resolute face looked gentle and firm: "I can only love him in this life. I can only live up to him in this life." Your lord's affection, if your lord can't get angry and wants the life of the minister, the minister will have no choice but to kill him."

He only had Yuan Che in his heart, as if there were only the two of them in the vast world.

Yuan Xin looked at him in surprise, seeing the sincerity in his eyes, she felt a sudden pain in her heart, realizing that she might never be able to get the love of this man forever.

The sourness could not be suppressed welling up in the eyes, and the beautiful girl burst into tears.

Li Zhenyuan is the first man she admires in this life, and maybe the last man she admires.She turned her back heartbroken and out of everyone's sight.

Li Zhenyuan touched the painful left cheek, and felt a little sad in his heart. He prided himself on being affectionate all his life, and he didn't want to let others down.But love is such a selfish thing, if you love one person, you can only let the other person down.

When Li Zhenyuan returned home after finishing his official duties for the day, Li Chongming was already at home waiting for him.

Without saying a word, Li Zhenyuan knelt down in front of Li Chongming.

Li Chongming's face turned livid: "Do you know what you did wrong today?"

Li Chongming's heavy aura was like a ten thousand-jun mountain mountain pressing on top of his head, Li Zhenyuan did not dare to look at Li Chongming, and said in a low voice: "Son should not refuse the marriage from the Holy Majesty, and brush the face of the royal family."

"Bastard!" Li Chongming was furious, and kicked Li Zhenyuan fiercely: "Do you know where you put the Li family?"

Li Chongming kicked his chest very hard, and Li Zhenyuan's throat was filled with fishy sweetness, but he only buried his head lower, and silently received the blow.

Li Chongming said angrily: "Do you think that no one knows what you have done? Can you act like the whole capital is blind?"

Li Zhenyuan was stabbed to the deepest part, raised his head and looked at Li Chongming.

He saw thunder and anger in the eyes of his father, who was always as immobile as a mountain, but also distressed.Li Zhenyuan couldn't remember the last time his father was so angry.

"My son is unworthy, but my son can't marry the princess." Li Zhenyuan's face was firm, he didn't argue for himself, and he always had only this sentence.

Li Chongming saw that Li Zhenyuan was as stubborn as a ghost, covered his face and let out a long sigh, and said in a cold voice: "You, go and kneel in front of your mother's memorial tablet! Don't get up without my order! From now on, you are not allowed to step out of Li's house without permission." step!"

"Yes, father." Li Zhenyuan replied in a low voice.

Habitat Wu Palace, Lingxiao Palace.

Concubine Lan looked at Yuan Xin who had been weeping secretly since she came back from the early court, and felt very distressed. Yuan Xin always jumped out, even a little aggressive, if it didn't hurt her heart, she would definitely not be like this.

Concubine Lan couldn't help sighing softly: "Where in the world is there no good man? No matter how good Li Zhenyuan is, he is no more than an ordinary man. How can you be so distressed?"

Yuan Xin sat at the carved sandalwood table, wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and said mournfully, "There are thousands of good men in the world, but if you want to find someone like Li Zhenyuan, I'm afraid there won't be any."

Concubine Lan took Yuan Xin's hand, sat opposite her, and wiped away her tears with distress: "My silly daughter, Li Zhenyuan can't speak so well as you do? Whichever family you marry will be determined Which family is so blessed. Except for someone like Li Zhenyuan who doesn't know what's good and what's wrong, who would refuse?"

Yuan Xin shook her head: "It is a man like him who rejects me, just because what he values ​​is not power, but true feelings. For the one he loves, he can even do things against orders, beheadings I can bear the risk, so where can I find someone with such affection and nature?"

Concubine Lan remained silent for a while, she never thought that her daughter, who was always innocent, could see more clearly than anyone else.She felt sorry for her daughter and held Yuan Xin in her arms with tears in her eyes.

Li Zhenyuan knelt in front of his mother's spirit all night, if he was not in good health, he might not be able to get sick. When he went to the Ministry of War the next day, he heard that the eldest princess had been betrothed to Cao Yanzhang.Thinking of Yuan Xin's heartbroken appearance, she couldn't help feeling guilty and sighing.

Colleagues around looked at him with ridicule or puzzlement, but Li Zhenyuan didn't care at all. Wealth, power and power were never what Li Zhenyuan wanted. As long as Yuan Che was in the same heart as him, no matter how many hardships there were in the world, Li Zhenyuan would have no fear at all.

Li Zhenyuan couldn't meet Yuan Che, and he was crazily missed, so he could only draw Yuan Che's portrait in his study.He didn't dare to hang Yuan Che's portrait in the room, he only dared to hide it in the pillow, as if sleeping with Yuan Che on the same pillow, only in this way can he relieve the pain of lovesickness and sleep peacefully at night.As for those that were not painted well, he was reluctant to discard them, and collected them carefully.

After more than a month like this, the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Li Chongming saw that he was indeed at peace, so he no longer restrained his feet, and allowed him to go out, but he was not allowed to meet Yuan Che.

Early summer has arrived, and it seems that an invisible hand has coated the imperial capital with a layer of light green.

It was a holiday, so Han Shi and Li Zhenyuan made an appointment to drink at Huajiantang.Li Zhenyuan drank a few cups with Han Shi, saw him sighing, and asked, "Why is Ziyin sighing?"

Han Shi raised his eyes and said, "I sigh for you, General Li."

"If you refuse His Majesty's marriage, you will undoubtedly ruin your future. If you are a little careless, you may even implicate the Li family because of disrespect. For the sake of a fourteenth prince, brother, why bother?" Han Shi took a sip. Wine, shook his head.

Li Zhenyuan's face became stiff for a moment: "Ziyin, you can't talk nonsense. I refuse to marry because I have a marriage contract, so what does it have to do with Your Highness the Fourteenth?"

He was startled and frightened when Han Shi casually uttered what he thought was extremely secretive, and suddenly remembered the assassin during the spring search.

He wondered in his heart: Could it be that he was the one who sent the assassin that day?

If it was him, how could he hide it so tightly, why couldn't he see it at all?

Li Zhenyuan's heart was already full of waves, but he had to pretend to be calm on the face, but his trembling hands betrayed him instantly.

Thousands of thoughts had passed through Li Zhenyuan's mind, but Han Shi just sneered slightly, looked away and looked at the crowd downstairs.

"Don't Wenyuan know that you can't hide your liking for someone. The way you look at him is too obvious. If I don't see that you are doing it for him, Han will have lived all these years in vain." He He lowered his eyelashes and hid his sly eyes, "Look, I just mentioned it casually, and I shocked you like this." He drank the wine in his glass and stared at the bottom of the porcelain white glass, " It's really not worth it for Wen Yuan to be like this."

Li Zhenyuan stared at Han Shi with a gloomy expression, and at this moment he could tell that Han Shi was simply trying to trick him, only hating that he was talking about the central matter, and that he was out of order, which made him affirm his guess.

Han Shi raised his eyes sharply, like a knife, cutting through Li Zhenyuan's surface inch by inch, fully exposing his inner thoughts to the broad daylight.

Han Shi had many accidents in his childhood, so he judged people better than anyone else.

Under such eyes, Li Zhenyuan had nothing to hide.He was ashamed and angry, and argued strongly: "Whether it's worth it or not, Zhenyuan has his own conclusion."

Han Shi tore away the layer of leisurely appearance, and said seriously: "Wen Yuan, you are too deep. Can't you see that he is not sincere to you."

"Whether Zishen is sincere or not, how do you know?!" Li Zhenyuan retorted immediately.

Han Shi heard him call Yuan Che "Zi Shen", so affectionate, a touch of disdain could not help but escape from the corner of his mouth: "I don't know when and how this happened, if you think about it carefully, don't you think there is something weird about your relationship? "

Li Zhenyuan wanted to refute him, wanting to say that the relationship between the two was just a matter of course and natural, but he thought about it carefully, thinking about Yuan Che's sudden change after returning to Beijing.Yuan Che probably hated him.

He likes Yuan Che because they meet again and again, go through many adventures together, and finally agree with each other sincerely.

So what about Yuan Che, why does Yuan Che like him?

Yuan Che's sudden approach.Yuan Che's cover-up about Li Meiren.One by one, he believed that Yuan Che had unavoidable reasons, but he still felt stuck in his throat.

Li Zhenyuan felt uneasy in his heart, opened his mouth to refute, but couldn't speak.Han Shi's gaze was colder and sharper than an ice pick, piercing undisguisedly into the fear he never showed, leaving him nowhere to hide.

After Li Zhenyuan bid farewell to Han Shi, his heart was in a state of confusion, and he accidentally walked to Yuan Che's mansion. He looked at the plaque of the prince's mansion and hesitated for a while, but he was led by his servants to Yuan Che.Yuan Che was approving the official document. Seeing him coming, he was very surprised, and seeing his expression changed, he asked concerned: "Wen Yuan, why are you here? But what's wrong?"

Seeing Yuan Che, Li Zhenyuan felt a little more at ease, but he couldn't hold back his uneasiness, and asked, "Zi Shen, do you remember that I asked you about Li Jieyu?"

Yuan Che paused, looked at Li Zhenyuan, and said, "I remember it. Why did Wen Yuan suddenly ask?"

He smiled, but Li Zhenyuan still caught the flash of evasion on his face, and asked: "What is her relationship with you?" Although there are conspiracies and conspiracy around him, Li Zhenyuan hated intrigue the most in his life, and also Don't test the truth, just twist and turn, and blurt out the doubts.

"It's true that there are only a few faces." Yuan Che still replied like this, "Why does Wen Yuan not believe me so much?" He put down his pen and stood up, walked to Li Zhenyuan, took his hand, put down his chest, and said with a smile: " Could it be that I got jealous from Li Jieyu? There is only room for one person in my heart."

With Yuan Che's attitude, Li Zhenyuan still couldn't believe him, and pulled out his hand: "You just answer in such a perfunctory way?" Just because he loves Yuan Che, doesn't mean he has lost all reason. Yuan Che's words are somewhat true and somewhat false He also knew that there was clearly something to hide.

"Wen Yuan." Yuan Che finally turned serious, and his expression turned cold, and said, "I have no intention of lying to you, but there are some things that I can't say, and you can't ask. So I'm full of lies, it's better to tell them bluntly, but I A heart," he stared at Li Zhenyuan, "is yours."

Li Zhenyuan understood that Yuan Che had already said that.And no more persecution.Yuan Che kept him at the mansion, but Han Shi's words were like a thorn in his flesh, Yuan Che was like this again, he felt unhappy in his chest, and left without hesitation.

Yuan Che sent Li Zhenyuan away, and went back to his study to approve the official documents, but he still couldn't write for a long time.

——Perhaps, it's time to let go.

He put down his pen and sighed deeply.Her beautiful long eyebrows were furrowed tightly, and the sorrow in her eyes was hidden.

Wenyuan, Wenyuan, what should I do with you?

"Shu Jun." He called out.

Shu Jun heard the voice and entered the room: "Does Your Highness have any orders?"

"I'm going out of the city tomorrow, you tell the servants to take care of it first."

"Here."

Yuan Che thought for a moment, and then said: "Send some of the newly-made touhua rice cakes in the kitchen to the general's residence, and just say it's an old friend's wish."

Shu Jun wondered why his Highness had to be so tactful when he gave a cake, but as a servant, he couldn't judge right from wrong, so he responded one by one.

On the other side, Li Zhenyuan returned to the mansion to calm down for a day, and felt that he was really unreasonable. He blamed Han Shi for disturbing his defense. Yuan Che was born in the court and grew up in the court, so there must be many things that cannot be explained to others.Even if he lied to himself, there is nothing wrong with it, but he is still angry in his heart.Later, a servant sent a box of pastries, saying it was a gift from an old friend.

When he saw the pastry container, he knew it was something from Yuan Che's mansion. When he opened it, it turned out to be a glutinous rice snack with a strong smell.Clear and exquisite, the red bean paste inside is still exquisitely carved.

The red bean is born in the southern country, and a few sprigs come out in spring.

May Jun pick more, this thing is the most acacia.

Li Zhenyuan knew that Yuan Che must be afraid that he would be angry, and it was not easy to come to Li's mansion in person, so he asked someone to deliver snacks, which did not attract attention.Most of the anger in his heart had already disappeared, and after eating this heart-sweet snack, the stagnation in his heart disappeared immediately.Make up your mind to find Yuan Cheyan and make peace the next day.

However, when he went again the next day, Yuan Che had already left Chang'an City, and he didn't know where he had gone. When he asked the people in the house, they only said they didn't know.

The author has something to say: I finally left the braised pork and arrived in a safe area. Here I must remind you that in the next few chapters, there will be a plot of Yuan Che's blackening. Please be mentally prepared XD
