However, Tian'an did not delve into the answer.

Seeing Tian'an's acquiescence, Yi was relieved. She looked at him, smiled and asked, "Tian'an, who in this world doesn't care about your appearance, your power, your bad temper and your identity? And who can make you care about her appearance, her temperament and her clumsiness, but is willing to treat her wholeheartedly?"

Helan Tianan was stunned and couldn't answer.

"You should find that person, not me." Yi patted him on the shoulder, put on the high posture of his elders again, and painstakingly persuaded him: "the beauty turns white in the twinkling of an eye. Don't be deceived by my appearance."

She never regarded herself as a beauty. Even if she became a beauty, she would not have the consciousness of a beauty.

None of that matters.

Yi Ren's old affectation made Tian'an gouge her out.

"I'll abandon you when you become a white bone. Don't worry," he said angrily.

After saying so much, she was still refusing.

She refused such good things and gifts that fell from the world. It's very annoying to beat around the bush.

Tianan almost tried to strangle her.

Just... I still can't do it.

"Well... Can I see the Empress Dowager?" the Iraqi didn't know that he had been placed on the chopping board waiting for slaughter. He paused and asked carefully.

Helan Tian'an hummed and 'eh' again.

The anger just vanished.

Or do you want to see the Empress Dowager? Does it come from the words "you must get the Empress Dowager's consent" just now?

It turned out that it was still a trick to play hard to get. It made me grow old and love gradually. That's why I had that remark.

——No matter what it becomes, don't abandon it?

Helan Tianan looked at her and seriously tortured herself for a long time. The answer was: impossible. It would be impossible for anyone.

If you are not an emperor, or become extremely ugly, where will anyone stick to him?

"Did you promise me to see the Empress Dowager?" she was surprised to see Tianan's promise.

"It's best for you to see the Empress Dowager yourself." he put up his airs and said faintly: "anyway, I don't want to see her."

It has turned into plain indifference and alienation. It's even more shocking to say so.

I can't figure it out.

When I was a child, Irene was not bad to him. Why would their relationship become like this 15 years later?

I finally saw Irene again.

After a long and short absence of fifteen years.

At first sight, she felt almost incredible and even dared not recognize each other.

The figure kneeling in front of the Buddha Hall was bleak and thin. Her black and white hair made her look very old.

The famous beauty in the capital is already haggard.

Hearing the voice behind, Irene stood up slowly, turned around and looked at her in confusion.

Yi's heart is tight and loose.

She doesn't recognize her anymore.

"You are the woman brought back by the emperor?" Irene's tone was extremely calm, which was the calm after sailing.

The corners of the eyes and lips, although wrinkled, are also peaceful. They have another taste more than the previous gorgeous.

"I'm your sister," Yi replied involuntarily.

"My sister has long died," she said. "She died in the garden of Yifu."

He looked calm and determined.

The Iraqi made a 'um' sound and thought it was right.

"Does the emperor like you?" Irene asked again.

"I like him too." it's true that the elders like the younger generation.

"That's good. He used to suffer a lot. I wanted too many things before, which hurt his child. Now it's a blessing that someone likes him and loves him." Yilin still had a sparse and faint tone, which made her unable to ask anything. She had to make another 'um' sound and wanted to retreat.

"... are you really my sister?" when she came to the door, Irene suddenly stopped her.

"I'm Iraqi." Iraqi answered softly.

Irene raised her head and stared at her face for a long time. Gu Jing's eyes suddenly flickered a few times, as if she believed it.

"Yi Ren, have you seen Lord Pei later?" she asked low.

"Ruochen?" Yi was stunned.

"It has been twenty years since he left." Irene looked up with faint memories and memories on her face.

"He..."

"What was once thought to be unimportant is now the most important thing to lose in this life." Yilin smiled and had no persistent answer. She turned and knelt in front of the Buddha Hall again, leaving her back to Yiren.

Yi wanted to say something. Looking at the back of Ge Fu, he wanted to stop talking. Finally, he bowed back and walked out.

Helan Tianan has called together officials from the central government to deal with the things left from Beijing during this period. Yiren didn't look for him. After she left Yilin, she wandered around the familiar corners and walked. She suddenly felt empty at the bottom of her heart. Then, a little eunuch hurried from the moon cave door and waved her hands and feet through the corridor.

Yi's heart was slightly painful, and he shouted, "what's the matter?"

The little eunuch turned back and looked flustered. "The Empress Dowager's funeral is coming!"

Yi stopped his steps. The slight pain just now suddenly turned into great mourning, but in the depths of consciousness, he faintly felt that it should have been so.

She realized, so she left.

But tears still flow down involuntarily, shaking all over.

"Don't cry." a man suddenly hugged her from behind and said softly, "it's okay."

Yi turned his head and was stunned on the spot. Then he became happy, "Xiaoxin."

The visitor is he Lanxin.

He came.

"Shh ~" he Lanxin was wearing the bodyguard's clothes in the palace, and the hat with wide eaves well concealed his too outstanding appearance. The corners of his lips were shallow with a faint smile.

"How did you..."

"I've been away for some time, and I came as soon as it was over." helanxin whispered in her ear, "you haven't... Promised him?"

The Iraqi shook his head and looked gloomy again.

"... she's gone." helanxin seemed to notice her mind and continued, "the Empress Dowager left instead of the funeral day. I saw a woman in a cloak go out the back door of the palace."

The Iraqi looked at him with wide eyes and didn't know why.

"He Lan Tian'an's gold medal, which he gave himself," he Lanxin added.

Yi winked and smiled.

No matter what agreement Irene reached with Helan Tianan, she decided to get out, and he let her go. Such an ending seems good.

"So, don't cry. Why are you so stupid to cry for a woman who only saw one side." he Lanxin smiled and wiped away the tears left in the corners of her eyes, then took her arm and said, "go, I'll take you away."

"Xiaoxin..."

"The imperial palace is not a good place. Don't stay here. I'll take you back to the mountain valley. My masters are better than the emperor," he Lanxin said.

"Are you a master?"

"It is said that he was a famous man in the past. Master nine and Master Lu are both..."

"Feng Jiu and Lu Chuan?! it's Feng Jiu and Lu Chuan!" Yi almost jumped up and looked elated. "Take me to see them."

If they believe her, they will help her find ah Xue.

"Do you know them?" he Lanxin was surprised this time.

Looking at her appearance, she is almost his age, and the two masters have not been out of the valley for 15 years. How does she know about them?

"Yes, I used to be very familiar." Yi replied seriously, "like relatives."

"How could --"

"Xiao Xin, I'm your mother."

Helan's new eyes rolled: the madness is coming again.

"The imperial palace is heavily guarded. Brother Tian'an and I have managed to resolve it peacefully. We don't want to have a direct conflict with him for the time being. Go back first and I'll pick you up in the evening. Can we meet here at midnight tonight?" he Lanxin quickly restrained his mind and told him solemnly.

"OK." Yi nodded hurriedly.

He Lanxin smiled. He had seen that Yi couldn't wait.

Her attitude pleased him.

It can be seen that it is wise to venture into the palace and take her away quietly under the second uncle's warning.

Later, he didn't admit it and hid in the valley to be happy alone. Despite the thousands of troops of brother Tian'an, he Lanxin couldn't help but be proud of him. He narrowed his eyes and smiled leisurely.

Another person came over, his eyes red, and the news of the Empress Dowager's funeral was reported by thousands of children.

"Your Majesty, please come over," said the visitor.

Yiren listened and turned his head. He Lanxin didn't know when he had disappeared.

She looked up at the setting sun.

Midnight tonight. Are you leaving here again at midnight tonight?

The Iraqi sighed.

I suddenly feel that things are changeable.

After seeing Helan Tian'an, Yi people further confirmed what Helan Xin said: Elaine really just left, walked alive, not died.

People who have just died are supposed to be respected, but when I passed by, the mourning hall had been hastily prepared, and coffins were parked on the hall, which had been nailed to death.

However, the sadness on Tian'an's face is real. The appropriate sadness makes Yi almost suspect.

——Is there Irene lying in the coffin.

My heart hung up again.

The palace people on both sides have changed into filial piety clothes with great efficiency. It's a miserable place. Swaying sacrificial flags hung on the coffin, but did not affect the solemnity of the room.

Tian'an knelt straight in front of the spirit, and his white plain clothes reflected his face without blood.

After Yi Ren walked over, he raised his eyes and looked at her. Junxiu's eyes were surprisingly gentle and full of waves. It seemed that there were ripples of water lines and a touch of sadness.

Like a child abandoned in the wilderness, standing alone in the lonely world.

She choked in her heart, thinking that she was about to leave, and suddenly felt guilty.

Ask yourself, is she really as fair to Tian'an as to Xiaoxin and Xiaokui? In fact, many times, clearly aware of his loneliness, he still wants to leave.

If it is Xiaoxin, if Xiaoxin is lonely, she will not leave. Even if she delays looking for ah Xue, she will stay with him.

"Good day." she squatted down, looked straight into his eyes, and naturally stretched out her hand to sort out the hair on his forehead.

Helan Tianan didn't move. She let her fingers slide over his forehead and put her hair behind her ears.

"What did she say to you at last?" Helan Tian'an asked when she dropped her hand. It was quiet and unavoidable.

"She said she knew what was the most important thing to herself." the Iraqi man stared at him and answered softly.

Helan Tian'an's jaw was not smiling or moving. "That is to say, over the years, she forced me just to do something unimportant to her?" his lips suddenly hooked up, but there was still no smile on his face, just ridiculed, "write it off one sentence, and walk freely."

The Iraqi squatted in front of him, looked at him quietly, didn't interrupt, listened carefully.

"Do you know what it's like to kneel in the snow in the cold winter?" the day settled down and asked suddenly.

The Iraqi shook his head.

"Do you know what it's like to sit on a dragon chair full of needles and felt?"

Still shake your head.

"Do you know what it feels like to be regarded as a puppet and have to pretend to be crazy, be careful day and night that you lose your use value, be deposed, have nightmares every night and be courteous every day?"

This time, instead of shaking his head, Yi leaned over and hugged Tian'an in his arms.

Her children have suffered a lot.

She was neither involved nor concerned, and she wanted to leave.

The people in my arms are very quiet.

His hair was sour against her nose.

The Iraqi held him closer.

"I hate her," Tian'an said.
