As time passed, the feeling of spring gradually became stronger. The dilapidated Cold Palace also had a hint of spring.
Xu Ling 'er stood in the courtyard and watched Xin' er and Xiaolong make kites. Her eyes revealed a smile.
Xiao Lian walked to her side and served her a cup of tea.
"Miss, you've been so lost in thought recently, isn't it not good?”
Xu Ling 'er shook her head and picked up the cup of tea. She looked at her reflection in the cup and frowned slightly." Xiao Lian, you often go out and walk around." You should be aware of the news outside. Tell me about it."
Xiao Lian frowned slightly, looking troubled. She knew a little about Xu Ling 'er. She didn't know what kind of secret there was. However, she could still feel that the relationship between this lady and Mu Yunlan was definitely not ordinary.
Xu Ling 'er looked at her and knew that she was not willing to say it. But even if she didn't say it, she could guess.
She slowly put down the teacup in her hand and sighed. He didn't say anything else.
Xiao Lian looked at her and felt a little guilty for some reason.
People outside always said that this girl was a source of trouble and a demoness. But she couldn't tell at all. She was clearly a very easy-going girl.
"Brother Xiaolong, a little higher! Higher!" Xin 'er looked at the little dragon flying the kite high and cheered.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past, and the kite fluttered and landed on the treetops.
Xin 'er's face turned bitter." Brother Xiaolong, you've put the kite on the tree."”
Xu Ling 'er raised her head and looked at the tallest tree in the area. The kite was hanging on it and could not be pulled down no matter what. Xu Ling 'er smiled and used her Light-body Technique to fly up to the treetops.
"Wow! Sister is so awesome!" Xin 'er cheered Xu Ling' er on happily." Sister, you have to be careful too."”
Xu Ling 'er replied. Just as she was about to take the kite down, she saw a bright yellow figure from the corner of her eye. Her heart skipped a beat and she turned around.
That familiar figure was strolling in the imperial garden with a woman.
Compared to the desolate silence of the Cold Palace, the flowers in the Imperial Garden were unusually lively. And the two of them walking together were like a match made in heaven.
Under Xu Ling 'er's pained gaze, Mu Yunlan plucked a pink flower and placed it beside the woman's ear. The woman lowered her head and smiled shyly. She was far more beautiful than the flowers in the imperial garden.
Xu Ling 'er's entire body stiffened. She slipped and fell to the ground.
"Miss!"
Xiao Lian watched her fall from the tree, her heart in her throat. However, in the next second, she felt her vision blur. A black figure rushed out and firmly caught Xu Ling 'er in his arms.
Xiao Lian took a closer look. Other than Xiao Tian, who else could there be in the Cold Palace?
He was no longer that thin and weak appearance from before. He was originally very handsome and handsome. Now that his body was much stronger, he was very energetic. In addition, he trained hard every day. His entire person exuded a vigorous heroic spirit.
Xu Ling 'er lowered her head and smiled, hiding the sorrow in her eyes.
"Little Tian's martial arts are getting better and better.”
Little Tian frowned unhappily and scolded,""Sister, why are you so careless?"
Xu Ling 'er was stunned. She raised her hand and gave him a hard blow.
"You're becoming more and more disrespectful. How dare he speak to his sister in such a tone?”
Little Tian turned away and muttered,"He's not much older than me."”
Although Xu Ling 'er heard everything he said, she did not intend to argue with him. She flew up the tree again.
This time, her gaze did not shift at all. She took the kite and handed it to Xin 'er. Then, she turned around and walked into the house.
Little Tian looked at the tree in puzzlement, then at her back as she left. He was even more puzzled.
Xu Ling 'er sat alone in her room and took out an exquisite box from the drawer. She opened it slowly and saw a good jade bracelet lying quietly inside.
This was given to her by Empress Xinruo.
Back then, she was filled with joy and thought that she could finally be with him. Who knew that fate would play a trick on people? She, Xu Ling 'er, would probably never be able to get anyone's true love.
Even though she had told herself countless times that she had nothing to do with that person anymore. However, when she saw him being so intimate with another woman today, her originally silent heart could not help but ache.
She lowered her eyes and slowly closed the box in her hand. When she turned around, she saw Xiaotian standing at the door and looking at her quietly.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"No, I just feel that you're strange.”
Xu Ling 'er lowered her head and smiled. She walked to the side and took down the long sword hanging on the wall. She walked to him.
"Do you still remember the story of the female general that sister told you?”
"I remember. Sister is that female general.”
"Yes, I am." Xu Ling 'er gently touched the scabbard as she spoke." But I'm no longer the same person as before. This sword is for you. You are very smart and hardworking. You will definitely become great in the future.”
Little Tian looked at the longsword but did not take it. He asked,""Is this my sister's sword?”
"Yes."
"Sister, are you giving it to me because you will never go to the battlefield again?”
Xu Ling 'er's eyes were filled with bitterness." Yes, I won't."”
Little Tian pondered for a moment before reaching out to take the sword. The sword was not very heavy and was suitable for him. Xiao Tian remembered that when she first came to the Cold Palace, there weren't many things here. It was Xiao Lian who specially found them for her to make her happy.
However, Xiaotian had never seen her happy before.
Although Xu Ling 'er was always smiling, her smile did not reach her eyes. It made people's hearts ache.
Little Tian looked at the sword in his hand and said firmly,""From now on, I'll be protecting sister. Even if we can't leave this place for the rest of our lives. I'll always be with you."
Xu Ling 'er looked at him and felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She would never be able to leave this place.
However, they were not. They still had a beautiful future and endless possibilities.
"Sister, forget about that person."
Xu Ling 'er smiled helplessly. This child could always see through his heart so easily. Her gaze gradually turned to the outside of the window. The sky outside had darkened. It looked like it was going to rain.
She slowly walked out and looked up at the sky. The wind blew her skirt. She felt like she was about to fly out.
Xiaotian looked at her worriedly." Sister, it's going to rain." It was better to enter the house. You don't wear much. What if you get sick?”
Xu Ling 'er turned around and smiled." How good would it be if the illness was in my body?"”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:122120183:52AM
