Yun Yao was stunned.

She stared blankly at King Lanling, not knowing how to comfort him for a moment.

King Lanling's eyes were full of grief, dark, gloomy, painful, annoyed... all kinds of emotions were intertwined in it, and even his voice was somewhat hoarse.It seems that the grief has reached the extreme, and even the strength of anger is completely gone.

His low and deep voice echoed in the room, three parts hoarse and three parts sad.

"What use are the rich and beauties rewarded to me? The rumors in Yecheng are getting stronger day by day, and everyone avoids me like a snake. My colleagues and close friends around me died one after another, but I I’m still alive. I think it’s because my life is too hard, and I’m really a lone star.”

After talking about it, the King of Lanling laughed at himself and said sadly: "At first I tried to refute those rumors, but gradually, I even believed it myself. If it wasn't for my fate, I was destined to cut off my relatives, how could I let my relatives die?" people die one by one?"

He looked sideways at Yunyao, with a thousand emotions stirring in his eyes.The heavy dark color made Yun Yao unable to breathe.She regained her composure, took King Lanling's hand, pressed it against her cheek and gently stroked it, and said in a low voice, "Don't think that way, it's not your fault."

Even Yun Yao herself didn't know why she made such an intimate move.

King Lanling's hands were cold and rough, with thin calluses on the pads of his fingers, which contained extremely powerful power.She pressed her cheek into his palm, and said softly: "It's not your fault. There are no eyes on the battlefield, and soldiers will die every day. Don't take these faults on yourself. Rumors are just rumors, don’t take them to heart.”

King Lanling said in a hoarse voice: "I was born at a fierce time, and my life is destined to be inauspicious."

She shook her head slowly and said softly, "It's not your fault."

King Lanling closed his eyes, and his words were hoarse: "I am born of a humble person, and I was born to suppress my father and mother."

Yun Yao shook her head heavily, and said softly, "It's not your fault."

King Lanling withdrew his hand little by little, his movements were extremely slow, as if he was greedy for her warmth.In the end he withdrew his hand, and his low voice echoed in the room: "You come from a noble family with five surnames, have you never minded my mother's humble family?"

"I..." Yun Yao was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Why should I mind?..."

She remembered that this was an era when the common people did not intermarry, that's why King Lanling asked her like this, and that's why King Hejian seized this matter and made a big fuss.In this era, she is probably the only one who does not stick to the judgment of the common people.

Yun Yao turned her head slightly, and comforted her: "Why should your lord belittle yourself? You have made great achievements in your life, and how many family members are not as good as you."

She lay down on her side, resting her pillow on King Lanling's loose long hair, and said softly, "Your Majesty said that his mother's family is a humble family. Could it be that he was also from a humble family before his grandfather was convicted? If he really came from a humble family." , and how can one occupy a high position?"

Since this is the heart knot of King Lanling, it is necessary to start from the root and slowly untie it.

King Lanling looked at her sideways, the dark and gloomy eyes gradually dissipated.

"No." He shook his head slowly and said, "Before my grandfather was convicted, although he was not as good as the five surnames, nor as good as the Xie and Huan families, he was not in the ranks of humble concubines. Being implicated, the clan slowly dispersed."

Yun Yao gave a light oh, and turned her head slightly, her eyes seemed to be encouraging.

The King of Lanling said: "But at that time, my grandfather was imprisoned, and my mother, as the daughter of a criminal minister, was sent to Yeting as a servant girl. Everyone knows that the Lanling Queen's mother's family is small and concubine, and the events of the past have been forgotten. It's clean." He said, his voice slightly lowered.

Yun Yao stared into his eyes and said word by word: "But in the past, it was still Wang Xietang Qianyan."

King Lanling was slightly startled, and there was a little astonishment in his eyes.He leaned down/body slightly, looked into Yunyao's eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Why?...Everyone in the world cares about my mother's humble concubine, why are you the only one who said 'Wang Xietang Qianyan in those days'? Why..."

He said "why" over and over again, with deep confusion in his eyes.

Yun Yao smiled: "Because the king is very good."

King Lanling looked at her deeply, as if a storm was gathering in his dark pupils.

Yun Yao laughed again and said: "Besides, King Hejian's concubine brother is not the only one. Even if King Hejian sticks to the judgment of concubine and concubine, and everything is against the king, there are also King Yuyang and King Ande. It is equal to the king. The king really does not need to underestimate himself and stick to this."

King Lanling shook his head slowly, and said helplessly: "No, he targets everything, and I'm the only one. Presumably it's because I have evil spirits in my life and my birth is ominous, so he doesn't like me very much."

Yun Yao let out a slight gasp, and asked in surprise, "Why is this? Even if the King of Hejian doesn't like the King, he won't be able to target everything, right?" King Lanling said just now that the King of Hejian will take the pains to collect those things. The letters and documents were burned in front of his face.If it's really because you don't like King Lanling, why bother so much? ... "When the king was young, did he really never offend the king of Hejian?"

She paused, and then said: "Or the king's biological mother once offended the former queen?"

King Lanling shook his head and said: "I have never offended him. But at that time, I heard people in the palace mention that that lady... that empress hated me very much, and her words were not lacking in fierce words. Presumably it was The king of Hejian is influenced by the queen, so he targets me everywhere."

Yun Yao suddenly asked: "I heard that the king is about the same age as the king of Hejian?"

King Lanling said: "That's right, King Hejian and I are born in the same year."

Yun Yao was stunned for a while, and King Lanling also froze, and his eyes gradually became a little annoyed.

"I once heard that the year that queen...that lady entered the mansion happened to be the time when my grandfather was imprisoned. I also heard that my mother was unparalleled in beauty and famous in Jinghua, and even my father and emperor were fascinated by her, but my mother did not. Willing to marry my father. At that time... then..."

King Lanling couldn't help being a little startled when he thought of what happened next.

How can it be such a coincidence that one has just entered the mansion, and the other, as the daughter of a criminal minister, has entered Yeting as a maidservant.The two gave birth to a child one after the other, and on the day the child was born, her father died violently in prison.How could it be such a coincidence, how could it be such a coincidence!

Yun Yao murmured: "How could this be? Could it be that the two families were fighting against each other and stumbling each other, which caused such a coincidence? Or was it that someone designed to please Emperor Wen Xiang? Your grandfather was imprisoned, and then your mother was imprisoned for crimes, and finally donated to your father?... Oh, my lord, don’t look at me like this, I’m just guessing wildly.”

King Lanling closed his eyes, and his voice gradually became silent:

"You are not guessing randomly. In fact, what you just said has really helped me a lot."

------------

In the end, Yunyao fell asleep in the arms of King Lanling.

She stayed up late at night with King Lanling, but she couldn't make it through, so she rolled up the quilt and fell asleep.King Lanling lay beside her, looking at the roof beam carved with fish and birds, thinking about his own thoughts quietly.Did not fall asleep for a long time.

It wasn't until the sound of breathing around him became light and shallow that he suddenly realized that it was already late at night.

King Lanling looked at her sideways, his eyes were a little confused and also a little dark.

In the end, he still couldn't hold back, raised his hand, and stroked her long hair slowly.There was a little tenderness in his eyes, and his movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of waking her up, or shattering a gentle dream.

Unknowingly, King Lanling had a deep smile in his eyes, and said silently: You are fine.

——Like a dream from which you can never wake up, the dream is full of hazy sunshine.

He tucked the corner of the quilt for her, staring at her with heavy eyes, over and over again, slowly becoming sad.

- you are fine.

——But after all, you can’t stay by my side forever.

——There is no one in this world who can stay with me safely and forever.

King Lanling closed his eyes, his complexion paled slightly.Those gloomy memories, those fateful rumors, those ubiquitous sarcasm and sarcasm flooded in from all directions like a deep night, making him unable to breathe.

He recalled what she said just now, and recalled those warm gazes like the morning sun, and his heart suddenly became peaceful.

Like a traveler walking alone in the dark night, seeing a warm and bright fire.Even though he knew it was a moth to the flame, he still wanted to get closer to dispel the cold darkness.

He stroked her long hair slowly, then suddenly bent down/body, and kissed her hair lightly.

That's good.
