Lei Yue Longmen

"Hey, who is the prospective brother-in-law slapping? It can't be for the righteous sister." From a distance, Zhu Mulan took a clear look at Cen Zhu's actions. She rolled her eyes and glanced at her. Righteous sister, she pretended to be quite calm, if her complexion wasn't so stinky, she would be reluctant to believe it.

"Hmph, to be honest, I can't trust her." Zhu Mulan said bluntly: "The day lily has been cold for five years, can you guarantee that this young master Peach Blossom will not change his heart for you? Hmph, the temperament of a mature man and the feelings of a young man It’s so bad that it can separate a sea of ​​peace. The same relationship, when you are 20 years old, you can be desperate, but when you are 30 years old, you have to weigh the pros and cons. The result is completely different. The lesson from the past is not far away. "

"Then? What about you and the little? King Yue? Isn't it also separated by many years?"

"Us?" She said helplessly: "There are objective reasons for us. Who made him die first brother eight years ago, his mother six years ago, grandma three years ago, and two? The nanny died, and now even the queen mother is coming to get in the way... You know, I'm talking about the queen mother. The mourning period lasts year after year. It's not that I cursed him, but what will happen next time? What can I do? I'm used to it, and I can only admit that I am unlucky."

Zhu Mulan felt bitter when she thought of this, who made her husband's family have so many relatives?!They are all relatives with great backgrounds. If you go to one of them, you will have to serve one to three years of mourning, and you cannot marry or marry.Life and death took her from a young girl to an old girl.

"However, I won't hide it from you. In the past seven years, we have indeed missed each other's best years, and my state of mind is indeed different from what it was back then. Back then, I could go up the mountain of swords and go down the sea of ​​fire for my beloved, regardless of gains and losses. Now I only want to live for myself, have you ever noticed these differences?"

"What's more, our marriage contract is guaranteed by the law of the state. The emperor personally pointed out the marriage back then. If Li Jingshan dared to betray me, he would ask for death penalty. And what about you? Just rely on a contract that has no guarantee and can never be made public. , you just want to tie her heart? Sister, I am not talking about you, we are also people who have seen big storms, can we not be so naive!"

Zhu Mulan's every word hit the ground? Soundly, every sentence hit her vitals.Li Jingchen knew that she had always been reluctant to talk about her private affairs to others, but she was willing to say a few heartfelt words because she was a good friend she had introduced as a close friend.Could it be that she didn't understand in her heart, but... She took out the?

"But I, there is no other way out, I have to protect her."

"But what kind of protection is this? Do you think she will appreciate you? It's fine if she doesn't hate you. What's the point of such painstaking protection?" Can't help but relax a little.

"If it were me, even if there was a greater danger ahead, I would not let go of the one I love, and I would die together. I don't want to take advantage of others!"

She looked at Cen Zhuangyuan who was still standing there, feeling a little bit resentful that iron could not be made into steel.

She hoped that the person in front of her could quickly turn her head back, don't go? Take this endless and lonely road.When difficulties come, there should be someone to stand with her, and it is not required that the other party must live and die together, but that sense of security and belonging cannot be replaced by anyone.

"Sister Mulan, I know you are doing it for my own good, and I am willing to tell you the truth."

Listen, she was finally willing to let go, and Zhu Mulan finally saw a glimmer of light.

"Then, what do you think?"

"Shall I tell you a story?"

"Tell a story?" Zhu Mulan couldn't keep up with her train of thought.

"Well. Once upon a time, there was a family that was suddenly flooded one day, and the family rushed up the mountain desperately. But the water rose quickly, and the family was swallowed by the flood one after another. In the end, there was only one girl left. The girl desperately? Climbing up the mountain, she didn't care about rest, but the flood water quickly reached her waist. She was exhausted and hung under the cliff, unable to climb anymore. When she looked up, the cliff stretched out. A beautiful stone lotus flower emerged, more beautiful than any flower she had ever seen in the world. It was as white as the snow on the Chilan Bridge, and as elegant as the one among the peach blossoms. A maverick pear flower with white flowers. Her roots are so long that they hang down to her hand, as if they came here to save her. The girl thought she was saved, so excitedly she grabbed the roots and went to Climbing up. But the roots of the stone lotus are too fragile, and the girl broke after climbing for a long time, and the girl almost fell into the sea.

Without the roots, the stone lotus will die soon.But if the girl doesn't hold on to it, the roots will climb up and the flood will come up, and she will die.In order to survive, the girl had to climb up by the roots, taking every step carefully for fear of breaking her.

Just when she thought that she could reach the top of the mountain smoothly with her ingenuity and prudence without hurting Shi Lian at all, reality gave her a head-on blow.The girl kept an eagle flying over and pecked Shi Lian. The girl saw the blood shed by Shi Lian on the cliff, and dared not climb up again.But she had no way out, and when she wanted to turn back, she found that more and more people who fell into the water had gathered behind her, and they were all surrounding the girl and climbing up.Among them, there are partners that the girl has known since she was a child, relatives and friends who cared for her wholeheartedly, confidants who understood her and supported her, teachers who guided her upwards, teachers with noble morals, and prisoners who were heinous.The girl knew that she couldn't turn back anymore, so she could only keep going up.Watching helplessly? Shi Lian was torn and bruised all over her body, and the cats and dogs that came up along the way gnawed her roots until the bones were visible.Finally, the roots of the stone lotus broke off one by one, withering and withering in front of her.The girl finally climbed to the top of the mountain, but at this time she also has nothing.With no family, no flowers, nothing that loved her, and everything she loved, she jumped off the mountain in despair and died. "

Zhu Mulan was dumbfounded. After hearing this slightly depressing and dark story, she seemed to understand, but also didn't seem to understand.

"You mean that girl is you, and that stone lotus is Cen Zhu? Then who is that eagle? And cats and dogs?"

"It doesn't matter who she is, what matters is where she is. For me, it's a great temptation. I know my nature. In order to achieve my goal, I can't help myself to use Once she is used, it means that... I will never be able to get out. I can't. I won't, and I will give her this chance. Sister Mulan, can you understand me?"

"..." Zhu Mulan was completely shocked.She never dreamed that Li Jingchen, who was usually very indifferent to others, would have such strong emotions deep in his heart.Even stronger than this emotion is her extraordinary restraint and rationality.

She has clearly shown that it's not that she doesn't want Cen Zhu, it's just that she can't at this time.When the fish and the bear's paw cannot have both, she chose to use restraint and calmness to suspend the relationship.This kind of restraint and calm will undoubtedly bring her unprecedented prestige and cohesion, and will make those who follow her more willing to die for her.But at the same time, it will also form an insurmountable barrier, making people around you more painful.

She has no right to influence any of Li Jing's choices. After all, in this world where the jungle preys on the jungle, can she, a woman, do it? As it is now, it is so important that it cannot be ignored.It must have experienced unimaginable difficulties and pressures.

It's just too bitter.

"So, the deadline you set for yourself is five years? But are you sure that after five years, that person will still be there? Waiting for you?"

After all, it's back to the original point, if everything goes smoothly as she designed.Although the process was a bit tragic, as long as the result is good, it can be regarded as a beautiful thing that starts with bitterness and then sweetness?But can it?

In her opinion, they are people from two different worlds.Li Jing's character is stoic, low-key and pragmatic, and there is no trace of any personal relationship between her children.Even the marriage was done in a formulaic way, without anyone worrying about it.The old prince of Li Jingshan's family went to the capital and came back from a visit to the capital. He mentioned that she was full of praise, calling her "No.1 among the princes", and he was convinced.She had no doubt that she could hold on to this relationship until death.On the contrary, the romantic anecdote of Cen Zhuangyuan has already been spread throughout the country.Miss Zhu, who claimed to be Li Jingchen's only confidant, looked down on her when she learned that the empress dowager fell in love with this person.This is as unimaginable as a swan and a toad seeing each other. Although, I have to admit, that toad really has a rumored face.But it was also because this face was too monstrous, causing trouble, that Zhu Mulan doubted from the bottom of her heart that she would be able to stick to her heart.

She once thought that Li Jingchen had been suppressed by ethics for too long before he acted irrationally.But the facts have proved that they not only fall in love with each other, but are even willing to die for each other.From the initial rejection to the current understanding, she has gone through quite a struggle.But Li Jing's current decision is incomprehensible again.

She shook her head, "I'm not sure. But I know, if you're destined to lose her, it's best to start today, not many years later. Sister Mulan, can you understand me?"

Zhu Mulan knew that it would be difficult for her to change her original intention, so she could only sigh, "It's useless for me to understand, the key is for her to understand. You are just too calm, and if you are thoughtful, you are not doing well. Do you know that it hurts people?" "

She was suddenly full of sympathy for Cen Zhuo, "Let me guess, that contract was not for Cen Zhuangyuan to cash out in the future, but for her to chat with each other during the long and lonely five years." The only sustenance. Because everyone knows that Donggong is a person who keeps his promises. But whoever makes an oath, he must keep it, and the words he made must be practiced. He has never regretted it. Am I right, sister?"

She looked at the blurred eyes of the other party, and couldn't bear to ask any more questions, but felt worthless for her.If the outsiders are like this, what should the people in the game do?Perhaps, this is the fate that every king must bear!

Li Jingchen peeled a lobster for Cen Zhuo, from the lobster tail to the prawn tail, he picked it clean, carefully, and put the white and tender lobster meat into her bowl with his own hands.Zhu Mulan's side was always red? Eyes, Cen Zhu looked at her strangely, "Miss Zhu, why don't you eat?"

"Oh, I'm full." Zhu Mulan said without appetite.

Cen Zhu was puzzled? Blinking his eyes, he obviously didn't see her eating, how could he be full?

"Are you really not going anymore? Do you want to eat a little? It's delicious." Cen Zhu deliberately narrowed the distance between them. After all, a lifesaver should be repaid well.At this time, another spoonful of shrimp meat was brought over, as if to gag her mouth, Cen Zhu had to finish eating before talking.

Li Jingshu turned her back, wiped her mouth for her, and looked at Zhu Mulan with raised eyebrows.

Zhu Mulan curled her lips boredly: "I can't bear to watch this tragedy in the world, you can eat it yourself! I'll go first."

"She... is so weird!"

Cen Zhu scratched his face, feeling weird.

"Leave her alone. Let me see your hand. Well, the wound? It's healed. Let me see, how big can you do now?"

Seeing her pinching and pinching, Cen Zhu coughed, and said faintly: "It's not allowed to peel clothes for shrimps yet, but it's okay to peel clothes for people."

Listening to her rascally words, Li Jingchen blushed until his ears were flushed, but he still managed to calm down, staring and gritted his teeth: "Your skin is itchy, isn't it?"
