"Mother, she won't marry into the Western Regions on your behalf, right?”I interrupted my mother.
"Yes, she married in my place in the Western Regions, and it was impossible for me to return to the Imperial Palace. I was going to look for my second brother in the fief, but I met bandits on the way. At first glance, I fell in love with your father. Your father was going to send me to my second brother, but on the way, he received news from the Western Regions. The King of the Western Regions found out that he was not marrying the princess of the Tianyi Kingdom, but a little maid. The news spread very quickly. Imperial brother has already ordered the entire country to track my whereabouts. Your father also knows my identity. In the end, your father chose to bring me back to the Soaring Snow Martial Manor. " He chose to use the power of the Frost Snow Martial Academy in the martial arts world to fight against Imperial Brother. He had always protected me under the wings of the Frost Snow Martial Academy so that I could avoid Imperial Brother's spies. However, there are no walls that cannot be kept secret. Imperial Brother still knew where I was and he personally led the Imperial Forest Guards to the Frost Mountain Manor just to bring me back. Imperial Older Brother told me that I am his most beloved younger sister. Since things have already happened, he doesn't want to hurt me. It's fine as long as I go back with him. I will always remember what your father said to my brother when he stood in front of me,'I won't allow you to take Yanran away.'At that moment, I felt so blessed. I was content to have such a man to protect me. I choose to stay and stay by your father's side. It's just that Imperial Older Brother made me promise that I would no longer be a member of the Imperial Family. Therefore, I am just an ordinary woman. All these years, I have been living a very happy life. However, I harmed my personal servant girl. I heard that she finally gave birth to a prince with great difficulty. However, many years ago, she was banished to the Cold Palace. Even her son was hunted down and disappeared.”
I suddenly remembered that Feng Chen had said that his mother had replaced Princess Yue Ning and married into the Western Regions. I looked at my mother's sad expression and said," Mother, I've seen the son of your personal palace maid. He's very outstanding.”
Mother looked at me and quickly asked," Mo 'er, where did you see him? Is he doing well with his mother?"”
I grabbed my mother's hand and told her about how I met Feng Chen and how he left. Only then did his mother's expression ease up. I think this is something that mother has never forgotten. If anything happens to mother's personal palace maid or her son, mother will be uneasy for the rest of her life. Fortunately, Feng Chen was very outstanding. Moreover, he and his Gida were living very well now, so Gida could be comforted.
I quickly changed the topic." Mother, that cousin is actually the current Emperor Qian Yibei?”
"Yes, yes." His mother nodded.
"Then why did he come to the Snow Mountain Manor this time?”I am still very curious about Cousin's intentions in coming to the Snow Mountain Manor.
"Although my brother no longer recognizes me as a member of the royal family, he still couldn't let me go. Before he abdicated, he asked Yi Bei to come and see if I was doing well.”
"Mother, why didn't uncle come himself and let cousin come?”Since the late emperor abdicated, he could do it himself. Why did he let his son do it, unless…
"He was poisoned." As I expected, the late Emperor was killed. Is the current Emperor here to seek protection at the Soaring Snow Martial Academy?
"Poison? Someone from the imperial court? Didn't that mean that Cousin was also in danger?”I asked.
" Yes, this is also the second reason why your cousin came to the Ling Xue Martial Manor. He has to borrow the power of the Ling Xue Martial Manor to eradicate that person. No matter what, I am still his aunt. I will definitely not watch him be killed, but I cannot let the Ling Xue Martial Manor fall into danger.”
At this moment, her father pushed the door open and said to her mother in a comforting tone," Yanran, don't worry. The Ling Xue Martial Academy will do their best to help him.”Mother was nestled in Father's arms. At this time, if I were to be a third wheel, I would be struck by lightning. I quickly slipped out of Mother's room and closed the door, leaving space for Father and Mother.
Back in the room, I sat on the stool and looked at the flickering candle flame on the candlestick. I thought about all the things between Yan Muyu and me, but I really couldn't accept him because Yixiang was still in my heart. Although he and I were from two different worlds, he still had a shadow in my heart. This was unfair to Yan Muyu and me. Maybe Yan Muyu was only infatuated with me for a moment. He had never seen a woman with my personality. That was why he was curious and wanted to explore deeper. He mistook this exploration for love.
What I can do now is to let him know that there's nothing special about me. But how can I make him give up? I think that as Yan Muyu's senior brother, cousin understands Yan Muyu's character very well. It's definitely not wrong to ask him for help. Moreover, as the ruler of a generation, cousin had promised him that he would help me. Since ancient times, it has been said that a ruler does not joke. Of course, cousin would not go back on his word. Although Cousin hasn't even settled his own matters yet, I believe that those people with selfish motives in the court will be settled by Cousin one day.
The next day, I didn't see my cousin and brother after I got up. They didn't come back until noon. After lunch, I sat on the stone bench outside Cousin's room and waited for him. Just as I was about to faint from the sun, Cousin came back.
He saw me sitting in the courtyard and walked over to sit beside me." What's wrong? Mo 'er, is there anything you need from me?"
I said listlessly," Cousin, can we talk inside? I'm about to faint from the sun." Cousin looked at me with a smile, then got up and went back to the house first. As soon as I entered the room, I immediately felt extremely cool, and after letting Cai 'er brew the tea, I retreated.
Cousin acted as if he knew what he wanted to say, but he did not speak. Helpless, she could only speak first." Cousin, Yan Muyu and I, please help me."”
Cousin asked me with a heavy expression," Mo 'er, have you really thought about it?”
I nodded. Yes, I've thought about it. It's impossible between Yan Muyu and me. Cousin didn't say anything else. He only said lightly," Since you've decided, I'll help you." However, no matter what I do, you have to cooperate.”
It has been almost a month since cousin agreed to help me. Yan Muyu did come a few times, but I always avoided him. Today, it seemed like something big had happened. Everyone was so busy, and I was the only one sitting on the swing in the garden.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of me. It had been nearly a month since I last saw Yan Muyu, and he had clearly lost weight. Before I could react, I was carried by him and flew into the distance.
They stopped at a pavilion halfway up the mountain. He just looked at me quietly. After a long time, he asked," Are you leaving with Senior Brother?”
Follow cousin? What was going on? Was this cousin's idea? I nodded without answering. Today, the servants were busy preparing some things for the wedding. It was probably for Yan Muyu to see, so that Yan Muyu would think that he would marry Cousin.
After a long while, Yan Muyu said with a pained expression," Why? Could it be that you chose him and gave up on me just because he is the emperor?”
I couldn't bear to look at Yan Muyu's expression. I could only lower my head and say," No, because I don't love you, I can't choose you. The person in my heart isn't you."”Yan Muyu, forgive me. I can't bear to hurt you, but I'm afraid that if I don't do this, both of us will suffer in the future. It's better to have a short period of pain than a long period of pain.
Yan Muyu suddenly laughed out loud." Lingmo, I thought you were the most different woman in the world, but today I realized that I was wrong. You are no different from those secular women. Don't worry, from today onwards, you will never see me again. Because I never want to see you again.”
I didn't dare to look at Yan Muyu's back as he left. I didn't have the courage. I just slowly sat on the ground, hugged my knees, and buried my head in them as I cried.
When I returned to the Soaring Snow Manor in a daze, everyone was still busy. I returned to my room alone and climbed into bed. I covered myself with the blanket and sobbed under the blanket.
Just like that, I gradually fell asleep. In the dream, I returned to the 21st century. The scene that appeared in front of me was Yi Xiang and his wife. Yi Xiang was holding a child in his arms. The child obediently called out to Yi Xiang," Daddy."”
The scene suddenly changed to another person, a person I had never taken seriously. The person who had kissed me forcefully in the library back then, and the person my father had decided to marry me, my fiancé, Jun Hao. He sat in his office chair and looked at the photo on his desk in a daze. In the photo, I was wearing a white wedding dress and holding his arm intimately, smiling gently at him.
I watched as his finger gently brushed across the photo and muttered," Xinxin, I miss you so much. You were only two months away from becoming my bride, but you left me. How could you bear to leave me alone? I know you only have Yixiang in your heart and can't tolerate anyone else, but even so, I still hope that I'll be the one by your side, but you won't even give me the right to accompany you in the end.”
I suddenly saw an extremely obvious scar on Jun Hao's left wrist. My heart trembled. I never thought that someone would treat me like this after I left. I never thought that Jun Hao would love me to this extent. I always thought that there would be no love in a marriage alliance, so when I was with Jun Hao, I only treated it as a mission to complete and never put my heart and soul into it. However, Jun Hao knew everything, but he didn't care and still treated me the same. Looking at Jun Hao's pained expression, my heart was bleeding.
Jun Hao continued to look at the photo and said gently," Xinxin, perhaps you will never know that I really love you. You are not willing to trust anyone except Yixiang. Silly Xinxin, if you knew how much I love you, would you regret it? Xinxin, I can't give you everything I have in this life. You haven't gotten the happiness that belongs to you in this life. Xinxin, you must be happy in your next life. Don't just remember one person. Give others a chance and give yourself a chance. Try to accept more people who love you. You must learn to make yourself happy. Don't make yourself sad anymore, understand? My silly Xinxin, you must take good care of yourself. He didn't want to suffer as much as he did in this life.”
