Looking at his appearance, Ling Xiyue smiled and couldn't help but tease, "You didn't lend me here just so I could listen to your long sighs, right? I have a lot of things to do, and I don't have the time to watch with you here.
Landscape, listen to you complain."
She was teasing, but her eyes gradually deepened.
He must have encountered something, otherwise he wouldn't be so abnormal, or maybe this is his true appearance... xdw8
"Why, you are so unwilling to talk to me." Tantai Yunlang glanced sideways at Ling Xiyue, his tone was a bit complaining, but he also returned to his usual sunny and unrestrained look, and the smile on his handsome face seemed to be able to
It illuminates the entire sky.
Ling Xiyue smiled silently and followed his gaze towards the high city made of huge trees and boulders.
It is like a witness to history, despite the wind and clouds, countless people come and go, go and return, but it still stands here quietly, like an eternal monument. I don’t know how many things and how many people have gone through it.
.
"What are your plans here?" Ling Xiyue said, rarely taking the initiative.
Today's Xilan, with the change of dynasties, is no longer Tantai Yunlang's world. The new emperor succeeds to the throne, and the Empress Dowager Xiao controls the government. Even if he comes back from the dead, his identity will be embarrassing after all, and the position of emperor cannot be exchanged.
of.
The most important thing is that she can't see that he is competitive. Although she can't guarantee anything else, she still has this bit of discernment.
Tantai Yunlang's eyes deepened, "If I say, I don't know what to plan for the moment, Xiyue, can you trust me?"
Ling Xiyue just smiled.
So what if you believe it, so what if you don't believe it.
"I don't know why, but for the first time, I feel like I can't see the way forward." Tantai Yunlang suddenly sighed.
Ling Xiyue looked at the man beside her, her eyes moving slightly.
Perhaps, she had never really known this person, whether it was Tantai Yunlang or Xiao Yunlang.
She has never tried to truly understand the loneliness, hardship, doubts, and some silent longings in his heart...
Tantai Yunlang smiled, but there was a bit of bitterness at the corner of his mouth, "In the past twenty years, I have been following my father's wishes, setting an example for the subjects, setting an example for the prince, and being a qualified Prince of the East Palace.
The emperor of the country."
"I have always adhered to the path that my father wanted me to take. Even if this path is lonely, hopeless, and seems to never see the end, and it is not what I want, I must continue along this path."
Ling Xiyue stood on the high slope with her hands folded, listening quietly, but in the end she said nothing.
Perhaps Tantai Yunlang doesn't need any response. He just needs a listener who can talk to someone about his innermost thoughts without any reservation. Thinking about it, he can't help but feel a little ridiculous.
As a prince, he had the support of thousands of people, but he didn't even have anyone around him who could speak his mind.
"I have done countless bad things and wrong things, but I have never regretted it. In this chaotic world where heaven is turbid, if you don't fight or plot, you will become a mermaid." The setting clouds on the horizon dyed the man's eyes crimson.
, dark and gloomy.
However, it dimmed in an instant, and his voice became softer, "But the only thing I regret is that I didn't treat you sincerely from the beginning."
They were wrong from the beginning.
One wrong step, one wrong step after another, and you can't look back.
Ling Xiyue sighed slightly in her heart, "It's all over."
The fate of Xishan Palace, the Tianqi Rebellion, the life and death of Beiyi, the journey to the Sky Burial Ground, the battle at Quewu Mountain... Between them, it was unclear whether she owed him more or he owed her more.
"Furthermore, as the prince of Xilan and as Tantai Yunlang, I can't say that you have done anything wrong. In this world, the weak eat the strong, not for swords and beasts, but for fish and meat. There is no absolute right or wrong, position. Different, morally different."
"But you won't treat me with sincerity after all, right?" Tantai Yunlang felt a strong sense of exhaustion.
Ling Xiyue looked at him with deep eyes, "Yunlang, whether you believe it or not, whether you are Xiao Yunlang or Tantai Yunlang, I have always treated you with sincerity, and I have never truly hated you. I have never blamed you for anything."
"You are the first friend, or brother, that I recognize in this world. I treat you like an enemy and a friend, but in the end, friends are more valuable than enemies."
She sighed slightly, looked at him, and said word by word, "To me, you are very important. I can even go through life and death for you, risking my life and death for you. Just one word from you. This is how I treat my friends and brothers. There is actually a very blurry line between being honest and being dishonest..."
Ling Xi's words lasted for more than a month, but she didn't continue to speak.
She could go through life and death for him, working hard and bravely for him, but she could not accompany him to advance and retreat together and grow old together.
The words "wei" and "accompany" are similar, but they are different after all.
Tantai Yunlang's eyes shook like a stormy sea.
Although it is far from what he desires in his heart, it is enough!
The man smiled brightly, more beautiful than the rosy light, "Xiyue, if I get these words from you today, even if I die, I will have no regrets."
Perhaps it was because of his unwillingness to escape death and live a new life.
But now, it's enough.
"What about life and death? It's bad luck if you don't have time." Ling Xiyue sneered at him.
However, Tantai Yunlang laughed heartily, "I am going back to Beijing. The road ahead is unknown. I only hope that whether it is me coming back with the Golden Tent Alliance with the seal, or someone else, you and Beichenyan will be happy." Able to keep today’s promise.”
"Why do you sound like you're entering a dragon's den and not going home?" Ling Xiyue glanced at him with a smile, "If it wasn't you who came back, we wouldn't necessarily admit it."
Tantai Yunlang only said, "Maybe, whether it's the dragon's pond or tiger's den, or my hometown, I always have to visit it."
"I'll wait for you to come back and have a drink together." Seeing that he looked a little inexplicably depressed, Ling Xiyue smiled and patted his shoulder.
He had heard about the affairs of the Xilan Royal Family, but he had never investigated it in detail. However, Xiao Huanyun had always disliked Tantai Yunlang and doted on his youngest son. She knew a little about this.
But no matter what, he is still her biological son. No matter how much she dislikes, it is not as big as life or death. She should be happy to see Tantai Yunlang come back from the dead. She might wake up and cherish him and love him. .
After all, Tantai Yunlang is a great help to Xi Lan and herself, both in public and private matters.
It was then that Ling Xiyue realized that she could be so naive. It was probably because her parents and clan members were taking great care of her.
She had no experience in her previous life, but in this life, she had the warmest family love in the world. She never thought that she would have parents who were so indifferent to her own flesh and blood, and even regarded them as enemies!
