Chapter 51: Missing
Chapter 51: Missing
The plum fragrance is fragrant, and the garden is full of snow.
Yun Jin woke up from a coma, her eyes were out of focus.
"Mother...mother?" Qin Yu stayed by the bed and called softly.Seeing that Yun Jin's eyes were a little dull, he thought she was not fully awake yet, so he was very worried.
"What about the imperial physician, let imperial physician Guan take a look again."
"No need." Yun Jin finally spoke, but her eyes were slack and lost all luster.She stared out of the window, the magnolia-shaped window, still drifting snow.
Nalan Qing left, thinking of these days was like a dream, so short, yet so profound.Yun Jin sat up, looking weak and devoid of energy. The imperial doctor said that she was suffering from qi and blood, and she had not fully recovered from the plague, so she fainted suddenly, and it was not a serious problem.
She seemed to be in good health, but she no longer had the same appearance as before. Her whole body was like a shell that had lost its soul.
"Queen, why did you drive Aunt Lan away?" Qin Yu looked at her worriedly.
"Aunt Lan... When did you kiss her like that?"
"I said something that hurt my mother that day, and I was woken up by Aunt Lan. She was right. The mother has been giving for others all her life. For the sake of the son and the world, she never knew how to think about herself. The son still thinks that the mother is self-righteous. It's not." Qin Yu felt regretful when he thought of his words and deeds, and regretted Nalan Qing's departure even more.
He persuaded himself to accept his mother and start a new life, and accepted the existence of Nalan Qing, but the final outcome was so unsatisfactory.
"It turned out that she was looking for you, and I wondered how you figured it out so quickly." Yun Jin sighed deeply, and walked out with heavy steps.
Yuan Xi hurriedly took the cloak and wrapped it around her. Yun Jin looked at the mink cloak, stroked it lightly, and did not speak for a long time.She was holding a piece of fur, leaning against her face, soft and comfortable, every stitch was made by Nalan Qing, as if because of what she did, there was only warmth wrapped around her body.
"Aijia wants to walk by himself, so don't follow me." Yun Jin walked into the snow-filled garden with her footsteps raised.
The snow is white, and the sky and the earth are vast.
On the bluestone road, she left her footprints, which were soon submerged in snow.
Unknowingly, he walked to Nalanqing's residence.The backyard was quiet, and Yunjin ordered that no one should set foot here, and only the palace servants were allowed to come and clean it once a day.
It was the same room, but it was as cold as frost.Without Nalanqing, the backyard was dead silent.Pushing open the door and entering, there was a screen carved from sandalwood. Yun Jin stood in place, with Nalan Qing's delicate and beautiful appearance like a hibiscus emerging from water in front of her eyes.
She didn't know how attractive she was, and she didn't know how passionate Yun Jin was at that moment.
"Qing'er..." Yun Jin unconsciously raised the corners of her lips, the memories of the past flashed in her mind.
Looking around, the room is full of delicacy and gentleness.Walking around the rosewood table, you can see the light yellow curtains, and the coolness of the winter hits my heart.Yun Jin caressed the bed lightly, but it was icy cold, without the familiar temperature anymore.
She slowly lay down on the splendid quilt. It was here that she met Na Lanqing honestly. Although she never said that she liked her, she proved her heart with her body.
Is it a momentary fascination?No, she was suffering so much because she was too clear about her feelings.
Everything in this world seems to have become dim. Yun Jin used to like snow very much, her whiteness seemed to exude a fairy air, but now her eyes can no longer hold any scenery.
The red wall outside the courtyard, the snow branches drooping slightly, and the atrium dotted with rocks are peaceful.
When did this palace start, it's so lifeless.Yun Jin thought that she could adapt quickly, that she could go back to the past.Anyway, it's been like this for these years, but she found that she couldn't do it.
She couldn't pretend that Nalan Qing had never appeared, and she couldn't go back to the past as if nothing had happened.
"Qing'er, life is starting to get tough." Yun Jin smiled wryly, this murmur could only be told to herself after all.
After Na Lanqing left, Yun Jin's time in court gradually decreased. She had no intention of governing, and occasionally supervised Qin Yu's homework, and would also teach him the methods of running an army, and even the deployment of troops.
It's just that she obviously felt powerless, as if she had suddenly grown old. She used to stay up all night reviewing memorials, strategize and play tricks, and was well versed in the court situation, all of which are now disappearing.
Qin Yu once felt that she had changed, that she was depressed every day, even though the former queen mother was high above her, but her cold posture was like a newly blooming plum blossom, aloof and beautiful.Now she is like a withered flower, shining brightly and then slowly withering.
Seeing that she couldn't smile all day long and often lost her mind, Qin Yu felt helpless.Most of the time, Yunjin locked herself in Yunshu Pavilion, the same as before, preventing people from entering, but there was no longer Qin Junlan's portrait there.
There was nothing there, just like Yun Jin's heart, a pool of stagnant water.
Time flies so slowly, it seems like the four seasons have passed, but it is still in the cold winter, the snow-covered world, as if I can still remember Nalan Qing when he left.
Yun Jin boarded the Golden Gate Tower again and looked towards the Central Gate. There was misty mist in the distance, but Nalan Qing's figure could no longer be seen, parting and returning.
no more.
Qing'er, you have finally returned to your own world, and I will never go back.
The slender solitary shadow stands proudly on the tower.
The longing is very mysterious, but it is piercing.The plum blossoms are cold and beautiful, but Ling Han can only bloom alone.
Qingzhou, across the tributary of the Red Sea, faces Luozhou.Luozhou is surrounded by water on three sides, and only one side leads to Qingzhou. The terrain of Qingzhou is shaped like a gourd, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery.
The Nalan family is a century-old famous family, the most wealthy family in the world.Nalan Mansion, nine entrances to the courtyard, on the vermilion gate, there is a carved plaque of sandalwood, which is extraordinary.
The Nalan Mansion, which was originally majestic and palace-like, was full of blood today.In the Liujin courtyard, the colorful glazed tiles reflected the color of blood red, all over the place lay soldiers in disorder, and a group of shivering kneeling on the ground, trembling.The Hurricane Guards stood on both sides of Nalanqing, her face was frosty, and her cold eyes revealed terrifying cruelty.
Under her feet was a person covered in blood. This person was the elder Nalande who initiated the family rebellion before Nalan Qing returned home.Just when the Nalan family was in turmoil, Nalan Qing came back, she kept her composure, disintegrated the forces he had assembled, and invited the king into the urn with one move, and only then did she clean up the family today.
In fact, she already knew that this person had ulterior motives.
"My lord, Elder De was only deluded for a moment to commit such a rebellious act. Please give him a way out for the sake of his countless contributions to the Nalan family."
"Yes, my lord, when you inherited the position of Patriarch, there was a turmoil in Nalan's family. It is really inappropriate to go to war."
"My lord, please think twice."
The three elders Nalanting, Nalanqing Muyu, and Nalan Ruoyu knelt down one after another. Today, all the high-ranking members of the Nalan clan are here. They were originally the four elders. It is a pity that Nalande always refuses to accept Nalanqing. He felt that she was not of the orthodox Nalan family blood, so he did not want to regard her as the head of the family.
Over the years, he pretended to be submissive on the surface, and secretly gathered his forces to drive apart Nalan Qing's personal guards.Nalanqing often traveled around and rarely stayed at home. Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he even bribed some officials.
He had been brewing this rebellion for a long time, and he brought people to force Nalan Qing to retreat.In the plague of locusts in Jidu, Na Lanqing disregarded the interests of his family and made a big fuss about donating money to Yunjin to shake people's hearts.
But he underestimated Nalanqing's ability and influence, and his small actions were noticed by others. Today, he dug his own grave and fell into the trap that Nalanqing dug for him. The fox's tail showed itself first. come out.
"If it is the deity who is defeated today, do you think he will spare the deity's life?" Nalan Qing stepped on his face and exerted a little force on his feet. Nalande showed pain on his face, but he couldn't cry out.
Because his tongue had been broken by Nalan Qing's internal strength, he kept his last breath to frighten his tribe.
The three elders looked at each other, dripping with cold sweat, not daring to say much.Among the crowd, there was only one person who remained calm and kept a low profile. Among the members of the Nalan clan, she must have the most scheming mind.
She is Nalan Changjun, the third young lady of the Nalan family who is capable and beautiful.
"My lord, how do we deal with these government soldiers?" Qian Liang, the leader of the Hurricane Guard, asked with a sword in hand.
Nalan Qing's sharp eyes swept across the audience, most of the people who died were Nalande's cronies, and those who were captured alive were those who later turned against each other.She sneered, raised Narende with one kick, and slashed away with her palm. Narende died of blood after receiving the palm in mid-air.
Everyone gasped, Nalan Qing's cruelty made everyone dumbfounded.But Qianliang approached the corpse, raised his hand and tore off the beard from his face, everyone was shocked, it turned out to be a face similar to Nalande.
"This is...??" Nalan Ruoyu took a step forward and reached out to touch the unique mole on the corner of Nalande's mouth, only to find that it was also fake.
"Elder De has long passed away. This person has been hiding in the Nalan Mansion for many years. You don't even know that you have worked with a person with ulterior motives. If the deity does not come back this time, are you planning to hand over the Nalan family's foundation? This person?"
"How could this be? Has the real Elder De died long ago?" Nalan Ruoyu couldn't believe it, and everyone was shocked. What kind of conspiracy was hidden behind this, so that a person could pretend to be the elder of the Nalan family? Domineering here?
"Of course someone operated in secret, but this fake elder is just acting as a scapegoat." Nalan Qing turned around, his eyes wandered past the crowd, and stayed on Nalan Changjun for a moment.
She smiled coldly, flicked her sleeves, and dragged a person from among the arrested soldiers.
"The Lord is merciful, the Lord is forgiving..."
No one may know how high Nalan Qing's martial arts are, but the seven-foot man she grabbed was as light as a feather in her palm, and the body of the mansion soldier was suspended in the air by an internal force, playing with the applause But that's all.
"I'm telling you, I don't care about the position of Patriarch. If I don't want to be the head of the family, I can't take it. But if someone wants to take it, hmph, I won't let him do it." After she finished speaking, she clenched her fists suddenly, only to hear With the sound of "cracking", the skull of the person hanging in the air was broken by her, and he threw him a few feet away.
The decisive ruthlessness and daunting aura of killing made everyone kneel instantly in fright.
"We swear allegiance to the Lord to the death, all blessings to the Lord..."
"All the rebels...kill!" A stern order caused blood to flow into rivers in the courtyard, and more than a dozen government soldiers were splashed with blood on the spot.
Qian Liang raised the knife and dropped it, a flash of white light flashed, and the corpse was separated.Nalan Qing's eyes were filled with a frost that had never been seen before. Her ruthless determination once again shocked everyone in this turmoil.
It's just that many people think that Nalan Qing seems to have become more ruthless when he came back this time.
Nalan wiped out the rebels, and the turmoil in Nalan's family soon spread throughout Qingzhou.Dozens of people died, and no one dared to set foot in the government. Qingzhou, headed by King Qing, never intervened in the affairs of Nalan's family. Nalanqing represented the supreme power here.
Because of Qing Wang Gu Han's love for Nalan Qing, there is more respect between his words and obedience.The Red Armor Army stationed in Qingzhou would not easily offend the Nalan family, and the guards had already become friends of the King of Qing.
This matter would not have spread to Jidu, but because there was a member of Yunjin in Nalan's family, the news spread to Jihuang Palace not long after.
Royal Garden of Ji Palace
Yun Jin was looking at a new plum plant in a daze, recently she was always restless, life in the palace was boring, she often thought of Nalan Qing.I thought that missing someone could fill my heart, but in the end I found that the more I think about it, the sadder I feel, and the more I think about it, the more lonely I feel.
"Queen Mother, Queen Mother..." Yuan Xi stepped on the snow and made a sound of "rinsing", because she was walking too fast, she almost slipped.
Her tone was a little excited, and she seemed in a hurry.Yuanxi is rarely so unstable, which made Yun Jin curious, "Why do you look so staggering, Ai Jia thought it was Huai Rou."
"Something happened to Nalan's family."
Yun Jin was startled, and her facial expression was also stiff for a moment, but she still steadied herself, "What happened?"
"Elder Nalande and the government soldiers are going to seize the position of Patriarch." Yuan Xi was out of breath, half-spoken, but Yun Jin was anxious, "And then? Is Qing'er okay?"
"Of course not. No one in this world can hurt the Patriarch. The Patriarch is so majestic that he executed all rebels on the same day."
"Execute all...all the rebels?" Yun Jin was a little shocked, feeling indescribably, would someone as gentle as Nalan Qing choose to kill?
She couldn't imagine that scene, as long as she thought of Nalanqing, she could only think of infinite tenderness, caring for every detail and giving without expecting anything in return.
How could she kill so many people in one go...
Her methods of Qing'er became ruthless, would she be so merciless?
But even so, hearing such news still deeply aroused her thoughts.No matter what Nalan Qing looked like, she wanted to see him, but after all, she could only think about it.
