The Blue Curtain Chapter,
On the mountain peak in the distance sat a dejected fairy. His sleeves fluttered in the wind. Her long hair swayed, and her peerless face could not be seen clearly.
Mu Lan sat on the mountain peak and looked down. Ever since he chose to escape, Mu Lan had come here. She liked such an isolated environment. There was no disturbance. There was no expectation.
Mu Lan smiled as he looked at the boundless sky. He laughed so tiredly. So hurt.
He was always stubborn. This mountain was named "Forgotten" by Lan Mu. Here, she could freely fly her own thoughts, unable to forget, unable to quit. Every time Mu Lan came here, she would let herself be decadent. Because he was tired. Very tired.
There was a nunnery in the middle of Wangyi Mountain called Nianhui Nunnery. Mu Lan stayed here. There was no one here, only a nun and a young master. The two of them depended on each other for survival. Mu Lan's arrival added a hint of beauty to their lives.
Every day, Mulan would come here for four hours before returning to the nunnery. Time passed by so quickly every day. Three months had passed. She had been away for three months.
"Mulan, master asked me to call you back. It's time to eat." The little nun shouted at Mu Lan who was at the top of the mountain.
"Yes, I'll be right there." Mu Lan got up and flew down the mountain.
Living like this every day made Mu Lan feel at ease.
Looking at the plain food, Mu Lan felt that there was nothing more delicious than this. She didn't want to wander because she wanted to rest.
"Mulan, it's been three months.”The nun asked Mu Lan.
"Nun, thank you for your care. I like it here very much.”Mu Lan replied respectfully.
" Oh, that's good, that's good..." The nun always said meaningful words. Mu Lan understood that so what if they went back? It was just that the three of them were even more awkward.
"Come, come, come. Eat, eat. After eating, Nian 'er should go do her homework.”The nun said to the little nun.
"Yes, yes, this disciple understands."
Under the candlelight, the three of them were eating outside the window. Harmony and warmth.
……
"Mulan, follow this poor nun to a place.”The nun said to Mu Lan.
"Yes, Abbess."
Mu Lan followed closely behind the nun. The little nun had already gone to do her homework. He walked to the backyard and came to a door. The nun looked at Mu Lan and shook her head meaningfully.
Mu Lan smiled faintly.
The nun opened the door. Mulan had never been to this room before.
The nun lit a candle and the dark room was lit up. There was nothing in this room except for a portrait of a woman hanging at the main door. The woman in the painting was like glass. Her eyes were faint but very dazzling. Her curved eyebrows were like crescents, but her face was slightly pale. There was only this painting in the room. There was no place to do it. There was only a round cushion. There was nothing else. However, this room was very clean. Someone must have cleaned it often. Mu Lan looked at the nun and didn't know what to say.
"Mu Lan, she is called Liu Yue, and was once the woman who had the heart of the Emperor and the heart of the Fire Country. She was a miracle. However, the Emperor did not cherish her. Consort Yue was a title bestowed upon her by the Emperor. What a pitiful woman. You have made a great sacrifice for the Fire Country." The nun's face was full of tears. He spoke silently.
"Abbess, Mulan doesn't know and doesn't remember.”Mu Lan was curious about all this.
"Consort Yue has disappeared for fifteen years and has long been forgotten. It is only this woman who used her wisdom and beauty to build a strong empire for the emperor. However, in the end, she chose to leave decisively.”
"Abbess, why did she leave? Mu Lan didn't understand. What did this have to do with Nianhui Nunnery?”
"The Emperor had let her down and was unable to give Consort Yue the love she wanted, so she left. Return to Reading Nunnery was her residence after she disappeared from the Fire Country. Return to Reading Nunnery was the word she had given to her. She concealed her identity and collected donations for the people at the foot of the mountain. It's just that no one knows her."
"Didn't the Emperor send someone to look for her?”
"I did, but Consort Yue told the emperor that if he wanted to see her corpse as soon as possible, he should come and find her.”
"Nun, what a decisive woman.”
"Mulan, Consort Yue has never regretted anything. Do you know why?”
"Nun, Mulan doesn't understand."
"Because Consort Yue had it, she didn't regret it. She took that man's heart and escaped. That's what she's happiest about."
"Abbess! Mulan wants to see her."
"Mulan, Consort Yue has disappeared. She stayed in Nianhui Nunnery for five years before disappearing without a trace.”
"Why did she choose to disappear completely? Abbess."
"I don't know. She had lived in Nianhui Nunnery for five years. The person she missed didn't come back, so she left resolutely. She didn't regret that Consort Yue had burned everything she owned to ashes, including the place where she lived. Only ruins remain!" The nun sighed.
"Abbess, where is this place?" Mu Lan looked around the room and asked.
"This is where she used to live. The emperor rebuilt it here, but!”The nun sighed. Love in the world always tortured these poor people like this.
"The Emperor has finally found this place, but he has never taken a single step here. After Concubine Yue disappeared, this place was completely isolated from the outside world.”
"Abbess. Mulan doesn't understand."
"Mulan, I hope you can go back and understand everything. Only then will you be truly happy. Don't run away. Running away will only make the person in question suffer more.”The nun looked at Mu Lan meaningfully.
"Abbess, I understand. Give me some more time.”The nun looked at Mu Lan and shook her head with a sigh before leaving.
Mu Lan looked at the empty room and the woman in the painting. Was she really going to leave this place? She did not want to step into the chaotic world. She wanted to escape.
The sudden wind blew out the candles. The room sank into darkness again. Mu Lan could only feel the bone-piercing wind. He sat there quietly without any intention of leaving.
