Just as Yun Yan was deep in thought, Mu Xuening suddenly looked at her and whispered, "Yan'er, what's going on between you and Jing Nan?"
As soon as these words came out, Yun Yan's brows tightened, and her originally pensive face suddenly collapsed. She lowered her head. After a while, she raised her head and looked at Mu Xuening, and whispered: "Aunt, you don't need to worry about this matter.
Ask again." As she spoke, she turned her head and looked away, her face darkened.
Looking at the woman in front of him who was trying his best to suppress his emotions, Mu Xuening grabbed her hand, patted the back of her hand gently, sighed and said: "How can I ignore it? Now that you are like him, I think you are too.
Now I know everything. Jingnan is a child with a hard life, so his heart is colder than ordinary people. All this is not what he wants. However, if he wants to survive in this palace, he must be ruthless. Maybe at the beginning he himself
I didn’t know that one day I would fall in love with you like this. These days, although he is calm on the surface, he is depressed on the inside. I haven’t seen him like this for many years. If it’s Yan’er, you want to blame him for hiding it from you.
, then you can blame me too."
Are you depressed? The corner of Yunyan's mouth twitched slightly. Hehe, when he came to explain to her that night, even though she couldn't see his expression clearly, she could also feel that he was different from usual. But what could this mean?
?Her heart is very confused now, and there are many things she cannot understand. Just like last night, since he saved her, why did he leave without leaving a word? Was he eager to get rid of the relationship with her?
Heaving a sigh of relief, Yun Yan whispered: "Auntie, stop talking. I don't want to know anything about him anymore. In fact, he and I are not what you think. From the beginning, he and I should not have any relationship.
The intersection, but who would have thought that there would be a marriage decree, everything might be a coincidence. Besides...oh, how could I like Mu...how could I like...I can't possibly like..."
She wanted to defend herself, but she couldn't continue after speaking. She gritted her teeth and her voice gradually calmed down. Why couldn't she say what she said next? Was it because it was against her will?
Seeing Yun Yan's hesitant look, Mu Xuening leaned on the bedrail, but her eyes fell outside. The sunlight fell on the ground through the window, and the ground was colorful, but it could not fade away the darkness in the room.
Just like that sinking heart, even the bright light cannot drive away the darkness inside. She sighed and said: "In the end, even you yourself don't want to say anything against your will. The last time you went to Dongliang Mountain to see me, that
When I saw you for the first time, I knew that Jingnan would like you one day, and he would like you without any scruples or reservations. You are the same person as him, lonely and lonely. And this is the only way
Only a person can understand the hidden pain in the heart of a person with the same life experience and personality as yourself. The way he looked at you at that time contained a complexity that he himself was not aware of. At that time, his subconscious might have been struggling with revenge,
Love, he would never have thought that one day he would be in a dilemma for these two things. He is not a person who can easily surrender his emotions, but he met you."
If he really gave his emotions to her, then why should he continue? Doesn't it just mean that revenge is more important in his heart? Oh, when did he get into such a trap? Yun Yan lowered his head slowly again, she
He whispered: "Auntie, don't say any more."
The more she avoided, the more she cared. A smile appeared on Mu Xuening's pale face. She said softly, "Actually, don't blame him. Your appearance was just an accident. He had planned it a long time ago."
Yes, when he realizes that he can't help but fall in love with you, all this can no longer be stopped. In the end, he can only choose to minimize the harm you suffer. I think you have experienced this yourself.
.”
To minimize the harm she suffered? Yunyan unconsciously grabbed the quilt on the bed, her eyes slowly closed, her face was dim, but she recalled many things in her mind, where Mu Qingyuan took her at that time
When the emperor proposed marriage, didn't he save her by showing up? He also didn't publicize Mu Qingyuan's desire to marry her. Yes, it seems that he did so.
But, so what, didn't he turn a blind eye to her the next few times they met? Maybe he just wanted to clear up his relationship with her? The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Yun Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly, what was wrong with her?
, in fact, she herself doesn’t know how long she can live with this life. If she has concerns in her heart, and when it is time to die, she will probably feel a lot of reluctance, so why bother to torture herself.
"Auntie, stop talking about us, tell us about your injury. Does it still hurt?" Yun Yan raised her head, looked at Mu Xuening with concern and said.
Seeing that Yunyan was somewhat avoiding the topic, Mu Xuening couldn't say anything more. After all, this was a matter between them. She was just a bystander, and they had to explain it themselves in the end.
However, when she heard her mention the wound, Mu Xuening looked at the position of her abdomen, with a gloomy look in her eyes. She smiled and said, "How could it not hurt? But it would be good to save this life. Besides, does the wound hurt?"
What's important? What's important is..." After speaking, she suddenly stopped and her eyes fell on the wall diagonally opposite.
Yun Yan looked at Mu Xuening in shock, what did she mean by this? She seemed to have said before that there was someone who didn't want her to live, so she really knew who wanted to harm her.
Noticing that Mu Xuening's gaze was tilted in one direction, Yun Yan unconsciously followed her gaze and looked over. It was the painting! She was startled. When she entered the inner hall, she saw the opposite wall at a glance.
The painting on the painting. At that time, she was still confused as to why Mu Xuening painted this person, but now looking at her entranced expression, she seemed to have the answer in her heart.
"Auntie, who is the man in the painting..." Yun Yan asked tentatively, her eyes darkened slightly. If she didn't know that person well, she would really mistake them for each other. But if she did
She guessed right, this person should be dead, otherwise why would Mu Xuening go to Dongliang Mountain to practice? Now that she suddenly returned to the palace, she was a little confused, not to mention that she seemed to know everything, Mu Jing
How could a cautious person like Nan tell her everything unless she was also involved in it? Thinking of this, the doubts in her eyes became deeper and deeper.
Looking at the man in the portrait, he was holding a jade flute in his hand, and looking at the person standing in front of him. Although his expression was cold, his eyes were mixed with tenderness. Mu Xuening unconsciously stretched out his hand, but slowly retracted it.
When she returned, a soft smile appeared on her face and she said, "He is a very missed person."
"He is..." After hearing this, Yun Yan's eyes sank and he asked.
At this time, "Your Highness, Princess, it's time for you to change the medicine." A palace maid came in from outside, holding a coffee table in her hand, with white cloth strips and medicine bottles placed on the coffee table.
Yun Yan was a little annoyed. This person came at the wrong time, but she still stood up, walked over and took the coffee table from the palace maid's hand, and said to her: "You go out first, I will help aunt change it."
medicine."
The palace maid was blessed and retreated.
Walking to the bedside, Yun Yan put the coffee table aside, looked at Mu Xuening and said with a smile: "Aunt, let Yan'er change it for you. Over the years, Yan'er has a little knowledge of medical skills outside. If you have
If you feel any discomfort, please tell me."
Smiling, Mu Xuening stretched out her hand to caress Yun Yan's cheek and said, "It's hard for you to suffer outside. Fortunately, everything is fine now."
Yun Yan smiled and helped Mu Xuening lie down. She opened her inner garment, looked at the wound wrapped inside, and removed the blood-stained bandage.
Looking at the wound above, it was already scabbing, and the wound was not deep. Yun Yan felt relieved and asked casually: "Auntie, what was the situation at that time? Is there no one in the palace? Fortunately, it was just
It was stabbed in the abdomen, if it had been further up, it might have been serious."
After hearing this, Mu Xuening smiled and said: "I am used to life in the mountains, so I prefer peace and quiet. There are not many maids in this palace, and I did not let them accompany me at night. Who would have expected that last night
Suddenly there was an assassin, but fortunately I reacted when he stabbed me, and moved my body towards the bedside, so I didn't stab him in any vital parts, but only in the abdomen."
Yun Yan's eyes tightened, looking at the wound, and her eyes fell on Mu Xuening's face again, with a very natural look, but a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. But only for a moment, she warned: "If it hurts you,
Auntie wants to tell me."
Seeing Yun Yan's serious look, Mu Xuening smiled and said, "Okay."
After applying the medicine, Mu Xuening felt a little sleepy. It was not convenient for Yun Yan to stay any longer, so she said goodbye and went out. But when she just walked out of the inner hall, she suddenly stopped. It seemed that a gaze like a thorn fell on her.
On her back, she felt awe-struck, someone was staring at her. However, she glanced around and saw that there was no one there. Was it her imagination? After thinking about it, she walked out directly.
Not long after Yun Yan walked out, a woman in green clothes walked out from behind the screen. A trace of resentment flashed across her scarred face, and her eyes looked coldly in the direction Yun Yan left.
Yun Yan walked out of Ninghe Palace and was greeted by Bishui who was waiting outside. He looked at her and said, "Miss, how is the eldest princess's injury?"
Yun Yan turned back and looked at the gate of Ninghe Palace behind her, frowning. She had checked the wound just now. According to Mu Xuening's previous description, the man suddenly came to her bedroom and stabbed her.
She hid upward and just escaped being stabbed in the chest. But if this was the case, the knife edge should be downward, but her knife edge was clearly upward. Then she looked ahead,
He shook his head and said: "The injury is not serious, it's just that the complexion is a little worse. You can recover after a good rest."
Bishui nodded and felt relieved. Since the young lady said this, it would be absolutely fine. The young lady's medical skills are very good. You can see many diseases just by looking at her.
"But do you know who I saw?" Yun Yan suddenly said to Bishui beside him, with an indescribable solemn look on his face.
