Sure enough, early the next morning, Princess Li Sui of Yuling, under the personal escort of Prince Zhao Yi, took a carriage with only her personal attendants and went to Yuqing Temple to practice meditation.

It left endless rumors and speculations and became the talk of Chang'an people after dinner.

But all this fell upon the ears of Li Sui, who was in Yuqing Temple, and it was like the wind passing by without a trace. Every day, he only followed the eldest princess Chen of Qinghe to copy scriptures, play chess, plant vegetables and cultivate flowers in the morning and evening.

Although the days are dull, they go by very quickly.

On this day, as usual, Li Sui was dressed in plain clothes and sitting under a south window playing chess alone with his face facing the sky. The house behind Yuqing View was naturally not as luxurious as the Taiwei's Mansion or as elegant as the Duke's Mansion.

The palace is so grand.

But it can be regarded as a secluded place with winding paths, flowers, plants and birds chirping. Although the furnishings in the house are simple, there is an indescribable freedom and simplicity, as if they have abandoned everything outside themselves and have a lightness that is otherworldly.

At this moment, a ray of breeze blew the sun through the window pane, and fell on the black and white chess pieces. Li Sui sat there with her back upright, and dropped the two chess pieces with her fingers. Just when she reached out to pick up another one, she heard

There were footsteps outside the house.

"princess."

Hearing that it was the person who was waiting in Chen's house, under Li Sui's gesture of raising his chin, Niannu stepped forward to lift the curtain. Then he saw a pretty maidservant come in and salute: "Princess Pengcheng is here, now.

In the Immortal Master's room, Chun Niang ordered the servant to come and invite the princess to sit with her."

As soon as these words came out, Li Sui's eyes narrowed slightly, but he raised his head and said, "I know, let's go now."

When the maid walked away, Li Sui stood up slowly with the help of Yu Nu. Seeing this, Nian Nu said: "Princess, do you want to change clothes and wash up?"

"No need."

Just as Niannu blurted out her words, Li Sui had already blocked her back. She glanced down at the most solemn clothes on her body, and looked in the mirror at the haggard look in her glasses, which was hard to conceal even though she was thin, and her lips were not easy to express.

He smiled consciously and said in a low voice: "This is best."

"Let's go."

After saying that, Li Sui took Nian Nu and Yu Nu towards the courtyard where Chen was.

As soon as they looked outside the courtyard, all the maids of the eldest princess Pengcheng saluted Li Sui. Li Sui entered with a slight click of his jaw. When he reached the last soft curtain, he heard the voices of the eldest princess Qinghe and the eldest princess Pengcheng coming from inside.

The sound of conversation.

"This child says that nothing is wrong, but I can see the sadness in my heart. Although our mother and daughter have not been together every day, I was pregnant with her in ten months and she is connected by blood. How can I not understand?

Her suffering."

At this moment, Mrs. Chen, who was wearing a plain blue Taoist uniform, had a worried look on her face, and her pupils reflected the difficulty of being a mother. She only looked at Peng Cheng, who was sitting opposite her, and said: "The Queen is her sister since she was a child. Even if she has a different surname, Aman has already known her."

Treat the queen as a biological sister——"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but said desolately and plaintively: "Prince Fang died young, and the queen's passing has broken Aman's heart. These days, she seems to be doing this and that with me without anything happening, but her thoughts never change.

Not here, I couldn't sleep well at night, and I saw her getting thinner and thinner, but as a mother, I couldn't do anything."

Seeing Chen's heartbroken and helpless look, Peng Cheng reached out and put his hand on the back of Chen's hand, saying warmly: "The deceased is dead, and the living must live a good life. Ah Man is smart and will definitely understand this truth.

Auntie, please don’t worry too much, or it will ruin your health."

While speaking, Mrs. Chen raised her eyes to meet Peng Cheng's comforting smile, and then nodded sadly.

"Master Immortal, the eldest princess, and the princess are here."

When the two people in the house were talking about something else, the maid waiting outside made a sound. When she heard Mrs. Chen's call, Li Sui slightly straightened her clothes and walked in.

Pengcheng was also a little surprised when he saw Li Sui entering. He had thought that the rumors in the market were true and false, but he had never thought that after half a month of seeing him, the Li Sui in front of him was so thin that he almost fell over if the wind blew.

, her face without makeup seemed to have lost its former color and vitality, and the haggard look between her brows seemed to show some indescribable despair in her.

Where is there any trace of the free and easy, bright and attractive appearance from before?

"Aniang, eldest princess."

Gu Lou

Pengcheng was not surprised when he heard Li Sui calling him this. He just stood up and frowned. Unbearably distressed, he stepped forward to hold Li Sui's cold hand and asked with concern: "Why have you lost so much weight? Even if my aunt told me, I didn't either."

Thinking of it, my sister is already—"

At this point, Peng Cheng sighed and stopped talking, looked at Chen who was getting more and more sad, and then he took Li Sui's hand and sat on the couch together with relief.

"Originally, after my sister's wedding, I was going back to Turks after the Shangsi Festival, but I didn't expect that Holy Queen Mingde would leave so suddenly."

As he spoke, Peng Cheng saw a flash of pain in Li Sui's eyes. She could almost feel the pain in her heart like a knife piercing her heart.

It can be seen that the inseparable sisterly love between Li Sui and Queen Yang could not be more real.

"For the sake of the peace of the Queen after her death, my sister's hard work these days has been seen by the world, and I think even the Queen under the Nine Springs has also seen it."

Seeing Li Sui lowering his eyes in silence, his eyes were filled with depression and depression like springs under the ice. Peng Cheng continued: "The queen loved her sister most during her lifetime, and it is for her that you must also cherish your body and make your aunt more beautiful."

I can feel more at ease."

Hearing Peng Cheng's words, Li Sui tightened her hands slightly. After a long time, she suppressed her tears and raised her head to look at Mrs. Chen, whose eyes were moist. She smiled and stretched out her hand and said, "What the eldest princess said is, don't worry, A-man, A-man is fine."

After saying that, Li Sui felt Chen's hand tightly grasping his own, and he went up to sit next to Chen, put his arms around Chen, and leaned on Chen's shoulder just like when he was a child, as if absorbing warmth and warmth.

Comfort child.

Upon receiving Mrs. Chen's grateful look, Peng Cheng smiled and nodded lightly, and said no more.

When the mother and daughter in the house calmed down, Peng Cheng chatted with them all morning and had lunch together. At noon, he called King Qi to come and spent a rare warm time before preparing to leave.

"I'm going back to Tujue in a few days, so I'm taking this opportunity to say goodbye to my aunt and see Aman and Erlang."

Standing on the porch outside the house, Peng Cheng reluctantly held Chen's hand and said, "It's time to say goodbye. I don't know when I can see my aunt and sister again. I hope you guys will take care of yourself."

Hearing these parting words, Mrs. Chen choked up and nodded: "You too, you must put yourself first in a foreign country, and don't wrong yourself."

Seeing the farewell scene in front of him, Li Sui did not bother him. It was not until Peng Cheng was about to leave that he said, "Mom, I'm going to see off the eldest princess."

After listening to Li Sui's words, Mrs. Chen nodded, and Li Sui and Peng Cheng walked side by side outside the courtyard.

"When I saw my sister, I couldn't help but think that if I could be like a queen and have a sister like you, Aman, who has been with me since childhood, the time outside the Great Wall might not be so lonely and difficult."

Hearing Peng Cheng's sudden emotion, Li Sui raised his eyes, looked at her sad face, and then said slowly: "The eldest princess has a cousin, and she is never alone."

After the words fell, Peng Cheng paused, looked sideways at Li Sui who was comforting her, and then said with a smile: "Yes, my sister is right."

Having said that, having arrived in front of the hanging flower arch, Peng Cheng took Li Sui's hand and said intimately and warmly: "No matter when, Silang and I have aunts, you, uncles, and Erlang, we are always a family.

.”

Seeing Peng Cheng's retreating figure, Nian Nu said: "Princess."

Li Sui moved slightly when he heard the words, pinched his right hand lightly and said: "Go in."

After returning to his room, Li Sui silently stretched out his right hand and opened his palm. Inside was a rolled up note.

When she flipped it with her fingertips, opened it easily, and saw the clear writing inside, her eyebrows were raised in an unexpected arc.
