Chapter 72: Happiness Seems Real, Seems Like a Dream
You give me memories and I will remember you in return!
Nian Xiaofeng took the medicine with a bitter look on her face, "Puyang Longlie, this medicine is so bitter, can you not drink it in the future?"
"Yes, as long as you recover from your illness, you don't need to." He said with a slight smile, but his eyes were slightly cold.
"But, I already feel well and I really don't want to drink anymore." She frowned when she thought of the pain of the medicine. What she feared most in her life was pain and taking medicine!
But she didn't expect that this dark and cold-hearted Puyang Long Lie actually had a gentle side!
She knew that she didn't deserve happiness. Although she didn't know how long this happiness would last, she was content for now!
"You don't need to bargain with me, you short-lived devil." Her whole body was covered with poison. Qinglong had not found an antidote at the moment. She could only drink some life-extending herbs to relieve the effects of the poison. Thinking of this, her eyes became even more gloomy.
Seeing his displeased expression, Xiaofeng relented and said, "Okay... Puyang Longlie, I'll just drink it." She knew that her body had been treated by Qinglong, so it was not surprising that he knew that she was poisoned.
As long as she can stay by his side, she doesn't care about anything else!
She turned to him and chuckled, "How about I make you a cup of chrysanthemum tea to clear away heat, detoxify and remove liver fire?"
It's just time to clear your stomach and get rid of your anger, those moody people who always lose their temper for no reason!
"Good... Nian'er's tea art, Qingya, is always praised by people around me. I really need to try it." Watching Xiaofeng start to make tea, his eyebrows softened even he didn't notice.
"Your Majesty, please have a taste." He held the cup in both hands, respectfully like a maid, and joked.
Puyang Longlie chuckled with his lips raised, stretched out his hand to hold it, put it to his nose and smelled it, there was a light fragrance, then he took a small taste and praised: "Bitter first and then sweet, it leaves a mellow taste in the teeth, Nian'er is good at craftsmanship. No wonder she is elegant.
I keep running towards you."
"If Your Majesty likes it, I can make love for you every day from now on, okay?" He blinked his clear and lively eyes and said with a smile.
"Okay, I agree." A puff-like smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This monster's smile was really beautiful and soft, as if it moved the whole world. Xiaofeng couldn't help but lose her mind and think.
Wang Quan hurriedly walked in and whispered something into Puyang Longlie's ear.
His face turned gloomy for a moment, "Nian'er is feeling unwell, so go to bed early. I won't come over tonight if I have something to do."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry with Wang Quan, without even sparing her an unnecessary glance.
How could she forget that this is the imperial palace and he has so many concubines, not to mention that he has a woman he loves most. Compared to her, who is she?
It turns out that happiness really does not belong to her! Even if it is short-lived, it will still be fleeting!
Nian Xiaofeng, don't be sad, don't cry, have you forgotten? As long as you can stay by his side, even if it's a grain of dust, you will be willing to do so!
Don't be greedy, even if he doesn't love you, as long as he can be happy and you will be fine, that's enough, isn't it?
She kept comforting herself, why was her heart still hurting like a tear!
"Master, are you okay?" His Majesty asked her to take good care of the empress when he left. As soon as she came in, the empress was already sitting on the stool with tears streaming down her face.
"I'm fine, sand got into my eyes." He smiled lightly and wiped the tears on his face carelessly.
Why is she always crying lately? No, she wants to be the strong Nian Xiaofeng she used to be, the Nian Xiaofeng who can't be defeated by any difficulty, the Nian Xiaofeng whose tears don't belong to her!
"Master, your Majesty's birthday will be in five days." He reminded me lightly.
Seeing his master pretending to be strong, Suzaku felt uncomfortable!
How could she not know where His Majesty went?
How could she not understand why the master was sad?
"Five days? So soon?" Shocked.
That day when Qingya came to ask her...if she wanted to go to the imperial palace, she seemed to have mentioned it before, but she didn't care at that time!
It's his birthday, what should she prepare? Or what does he like?
After searching her brain, it turned out that she didn't even know his hobbies and preferences. Is this the distance between them?
"Yes, envoys from other countries have arrived in the imperial capital one after another. In five days, His Majesty will host a banquet for civil and military officials and envoys from other countries. The master must also attend." He glanced at Xiaofeng and said respectfully.
"I know." He smiled lightly.
It turned out that until now, he had no intention of letting her come into his heart. He didn't even tell her his birthday, and they didn't let each other get to know each other. How to get closer?
Didn't I tell myself not to care, just be by his side and protect him?
Why have I become greedy? Why do I still feel sad?
Xiaofeng stretched out her hand and patted her face, trying to wake herself up. She could not let herself go any longer. Happiness never belonged to Nian Xiaofeng. As long as she could guard his happiness from afar... that was enough, really that was enough!
