The sky had darkened. Looking at the sky outside, Yun Yan couldn't help but frown, wondering why he hadn't come back yet.
I don't know how long it took, but the door suddenly opened with a "squeak". Yun Yan immediately stood up from the stool and looked at the man who entered the room. He was about to say "You are back!", but he saw clearly what was in front of him.
She was stunned by the person's description.
The smell of alcohol filled the air, and Yun Yan frowned slightly, looking at the man in a purple and gold auspicious cloud robe at the door. A strand of hair fell down on his head, and there was a slight look of decadence on his originally handsome face.
, this was the second time she saw him like this. The first time was when he was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, when he came to confess the truth to her. At that time, because it was dark, she didn't see it clearly, but she could guess it to some extent.
Now, why is this?
"What's wrong with you?" Yun Yan came up to him and asked in a low voice.
Looking at the woman in front of him, a look of comfort flashed across Mu Jingnan's drunken face. He hugged her directly in his arms, buried his head on her shoulder, and spoke in a low voice.
Came, "Fortunately, fortunately you are by my side."
"Did something happen?" Yun Yan couldn't help but panic. Mu Jingnan was so fragile that it made people feel distressed.
Mu Jingnan's voice was tired, "Yan'er, can I not say anything this time?"
"Yeah." Yun Yan said in response. She hugged him tightly, but a trace of worry flashed across her face. She always felt that something big had happened, at least, to him.
After a long silence, Mu Jingnan suddenly let go of Yun Yan. He raised his hand and stroked the broken hair on her forehead. Seeing the worry in her eyes, a trace of guilt flashed across his face, and he said softly: "I'm sorry.
, I made you worry, do you regret being with me now?"
Yun Yan was stunned, and then joked: "I have been studying pharmacology for many years, but I still don't know that there is a regret medicine in this world. Alas, I can only blame me for being unkind and being deceived by you. If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog.
, I can only accept my fate."
After hearing these words, Mu Jingnan's brows raised, and his forehead rested on Yun Yan's forehead, with a mixture of pain and helplessness, "You..." His Yan'er is really considerate, knowing
He was unhappy and wanted to make him laugh.
Yun Yan smiled and looked at the handsome face so close to her. There was a tiredness that seemed to be unable to be healed by anything. The strong aroma of wine filled her nose. She whispered: "No matter what happens, I will always be there."
By your side, by your side, I don't need you to protect me from wind and rain. If one day, you don't need me anymore, then let me go first, because I don't like to look at someone's back."
"Fool, how could I, how could I let you leave me!" Mu Jingnan said in a low voice. He cupped Yunyan's cheek and kissed her directly on her forehead. However, he did not ask for anything further.
Looking at her, he sighed, "It's me who has passed on this decadent mood to you. In fact, there is no need to hide today's events from you."
"It's better not to say it, wait until you want to tell me!" Yun Yan looked at the slightly haggard face and said with a smile.
Shaking his head, Mu Jingnan insisted, "No, I don't want there to be any estrangement between the two of us, Yan'er, we promised to be honest with each other at all times. Did you know? He is sick!"
He? Yun Yan looked at Mu Jingnan in surprise, who was he referring to?
Mu Jingnan didn't seem to notice Yun Yan's probing gaze, and said to himself: "He used to be the person I admired most, but later on, he was the one who pushed my mother and concubine into the abyss. How can I forgive him?"
Him! However, whether I was quarreling with him or deliberately doing things to make him angry, maybe, subconsciously, I still hoped to get his attention, but time and time again, I came back disappointed. I hate him, hate him
He is ruthless, I would rather hate him like this forever, at least, I will not have any confusion."
After hearing this, Yun Yan immediately understood that 'he' was referring to Mu Yangtian. She sighed, took Mu Jingnan's hand, and whispered: "I know, because, like you, I don't want
If you are confused, you are luckier than me. At least the emperor has good intentions for you. In fact, I have known about the emperor's serious illness for a long time, but I have never had the chance to tell you."
Mu Jingnan's eyebrows moved slightly, he looked at Yun Yan, frowned, and then looked away.
Knowing that Mu Jingnan wanted to ask about Mu Yangtian's condition but couldn't ask, Yun Yan simply said it directly, "The emperor has worked hard these years, and his body has already collapsed, and his internal organs have been seriously damaged. Although I have not given any treatment,
He checked his pulse, but just by looking at his expression, I could tell that he could only live for half a year at most."
Mu Jingnan's eyes tightened and he frowned. He didn't say much, but his expression was tense.
Yun Yan sighed, took Mu Jingnan's hand, and whispered: "Actually, it's still your fault whether you forgive me or not, but don't really want to find the regret medicine in the future, I'm afraid it will be too late."
After a moment of silence, Mu Jingnan suddenly changed the subject and said, "I heard from Mu Qingyuan today that Linglong Pavilion is closed. What happened in the middle?" Glancing at Mu Jingnan, Yun Yan knew that he was in a complicated mood.
Time couldn't relieve it, and she didn't force it. She smiled and said: "I warned him, but he is still so restless. I originally thought that after Gao Qi's death, he would be calmer, but it seems that I think highly of him."
Don't worry, I have my own arrangements for this matter."
Shaking his head slightly, Mu Jingnan smiled, "I can't say I'm worried. I'm afraid I'm not as good as you in business matters." However, when he said this, he suddenly thought of something, frowned and said, "Have you seen Yan'er recently?
Yan Lingxiao?"
Yan Lingxiao?! Looking at the solemn look on the man opposite him, Yun Yan's eyebrows moved. Has he seen Yan Lingxiao? Or did Yan Lingxiao say something to him? Thinking of this, she shook her hand unconsciously.
tight.
"Yan'er?!" Mu Jingnan shouted again.
Yun Yan was stunned for a moment, came to his senses, and said with a smile: "Yan Lingxiao? Isn't he in Nanyao Kingdom? It seems that he just ascended the throne, what's wrong? He came to Liangdu?"
Looking into Yun Yan's eyes, Mu Jingnan said with a smile: "She should be here. In a few days, it will be Mu Yangtian's birthday. Okay, it's getting late. You go to bed early and I'll go take a shower."
I'm afraid the smell of alcohol has got to you." As he said that, he let go of Yun Yan, turned around and left the room.
The smile on Yun Yan's face gradually stiffened. Fortunately, he did not continue to ask. Judging from this, he knew that Yan Lingxiao had come to Liangdu. According to what he just said, even if the two of them had met, Yan Lingxiao should not have.
Talk about her things. But, I always feel that this matter is weighing heavily on my heart.
For several days in a row, Yun Yan stayed in the Sixth Prince's Mansion. Logically speaking, these days were due to the Holy Sage's birthday and the arrival of envoys from various countries. All the kings were very busy. However, Mu Jingnan declined the reception.
So his busyness is different from other people's busyness. During the day, he is only at the house occasionally, and he stays out at night. However, Yunyan doesn't ask anything about his affairs, because she understands what he is doing.
On the other hand, Xiao Qin was about to come, and Bishui was even more happy to smile from ear to ear.
The sun was still shining brightly outside, and a breeze was blowing. Yunyan leaned against the door, bored. She coughed in a low voice and put her hand on her heart. It always happened like this. It hurt from time to time, but fortunately, she had a master.
The internal force helps to suppress it in the body.
Looking around, there were two figures standing in the pavilion not far away. The woman was laughing, and although the man's face was calm, there was clearly pain in his eyes.
Seeing Xiao Yao and Bibi Shui getting along, Yunyan couldn't help but think of the relationship between Bishui and Leng Xue. She always felt that they were a little more cold and polite. In fact, Xiao Yao and Leng Xue were different in some aspects.
It should be similar.
"Your face doesn't look good. Do you need to call a doctor?" Suddenly, an indifferent female voice came from behind.
After hearing this, Yun Yan turned around, looked at the visitor, and said with a smile: "No, thank you. I didn't expect you to be here today."
"He asked me to stay and take care of you." Ziying frowned, stood next to Yunyan, followed her gaze just now, and then frowned and said, "Why is he here?"
Yun Yan felt helpless. Did Mu Jingnan really treat her like a child? She still needed someone to take care of her. She smiled softly, followed Zi Ying's gaze, and asked, "Why can't he just be there?"
Here? I’m just here to see the woman I love.”
Ziying's face changed slightly, "My beloved woman?"
Yun Yan retracted his gaze, glanced at Zi Ying, saw her serious expression, and suddenly smiled: "I heard that your real name is Xu Wanqing, your father's generation was a subordinate of the Dugu family, and there is a past between you and Guyao City, you two
They must be childhood sweethearts."
Upon hearing this, Ziying's face instantly turned cold. She glared at Yun Yan and said displeasedly: "Did Guyao City tell you?"
Yun Yan smiled calmly and said: "Don't worry, I don't mean any harm. I'm just curious about what kind of woman has made Guyao City wait for so many years."
"Just mind your own business. I hope you won't drag Jingnan down in the end. I never want to see him look sad for you again." Ziying said with a frown.
After hearing this, Yun Yan shook his head, looked into the distance, and whispered: "Between me and him, no one will drag the other down, and even if we drag him down, it won't last long."
A trace of surprise flashed in Ziying's eyes, she frowned, looked at Yun Yan, and whispered: "Then you are working as a lobbyist for Guyao City?"
Yun Yan said calmly: "Yes and no! Guyao Cheng looks carefree on the surface, but in fact, like Jingnan, he will not change his mind once he is determined. Maybe this is the blood of the Dugu family. He is really treating you.
That's great, Jing Nan also hopes that I can advise you."
"I have been against you three times, shouldn't you hate me?" Ziying ignored Yun Yan's previous words and said in a deep voice.
Looking at the fluttering white clouds in the sky, a smile appeared on her lips. She shook her head and looked back at the woman beside her, "Just like you hate me but stay with me because of Jingnan's request, I also
Because you are the person next to him, so I will not hate you, not to mention, your opposition to me is for his own good. I understand, but I also hope you understand that no matter how deep the misunderstanding is, in fact, as long as we are honest with each other, it will not matter.
It won’t be solved.”
"How could you understand my pain!" Ziying frowned, a trace of pain flashed across her beautiful face, "He was the one who betrayed me first, even if he didn't mean it."
Yun Yan raised his steps slightly and walked forward, but a distant voice came from the air, "I don't understand your pain. Recently, I have often been thinking about how long a person's life is and how long it is."
I know how much time I can miss, but if God is willing to give me another moment in this life, I'm afraid I will never let it go to waste again."
Ziying tilted her head and looked at the leaving person in surprise. What did she mean by this?!
