His voice also sounded very tired. The anger I was originally filled with could not be expressed at this time. I gritted my teeth and said, "What else do you want?"

"..."

He didn't speak, but gently rubbed my lower lip with his thumb, and slowly came closer. I quickly turned my head to avoid his lips.

The next moment, he grabbed my chin, turned around, lowered his head and kissed my lips.

Compared to the almost violent kiss just now, the kiss at this moment was so light that it was unreal, just pressing against my lips and pressing them carefully.

"Light...light..."

While kissing me, he shouted my name in a confused voice, as if he was struggling with something.

I don’t know how long it took before he slowly let go of me and looked at me with a low breath.

I also looked at him, but in the end I couldn't say anything. When he let go of me, I turned around, opened the door and walked out without looking back.

After leaving the courtyard, I saw Yang Yunhui walking over. He looked at me and leaned over and said, "Madam."

This time, I didn’t have any expression on my face and just walked past.

Just when he was about to walk over, I said, "Mr. Yang."

He stopped and turned to look at me.

I slowly turned around, looked at him and said, "I heard you say just now that someone seems to be coming here from Shengjing."

He was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect me to hear this sentence. His face changed a little, and then he smiled and said, "It turns out that Madam also knows."

"Tell me, who is coming?"

Yang Yunhui smiled and said: "Madam, these are your official business, it is not my place to interfere."

I gritted my teeth and said, "Business?"

Yang Yunhui heard my suddenly cold tone and felt something. He raised his head and glanced at me. Although my words were cold, his lower body was always burning with pain. When that man went crazy, he ignored everything and almost made me suffer.

Injury.

I don’t know if it was because of official business, but if it was official business, why did he treat me like this?

Or should I say, that’s all I am to him!

Thinking of this, my eyes turned red. Yang Yunhui looked at me and seemed to be hesitant. He said softly: "Madam..." I turned around and left without saying a word.

From that day on, I did not see Yuan Yichu again, nor did he come to my room again. The two of us suddenly became cold. Although we were in the same mansion, separated by only two yards, they seemed like two strangers.

Same.

My body has been recovering for a while and is not bad, but every time I bear his desires, I will always be weak for two or three days. I finally got up this day, I am no longer so short of breath, and I feel a little more energetic.

He leaned on the couch and read a book. After reading for a while, he turned his head and accidentally saw a handkerchief on the table.

It was the one Mr. Yuan used to bandage me, and it has been washed clean.

I thought about it, picked up the handkerchief, told the waiter at the door that I wanted to go out for a walk, and left the state capital on my own.

It's still the same as usual outside. Ever since Luo Shi announced that he was going to massacre the city, the entire Dongzhou has been tense. But today's tension seems to be a little panicked. I saw many people on the road walking in a hurry, as if they were about to leave.

Same here.

What's going on?

I walked along with some doubts, and soon I arrived at the quiet alley. As soon as I reached the door and raised my hand to knock on the door, the door opened with a creak.

The young servant stood at the door, smiled at me and said: "Madam."

I was taken aback and said, "How did you know I would come?"

"My young master can do divination."

I laughed, and he turned around and let me in. As I walked over, I could hear the faint sound of the piano floating out, as gentle as the wind blowing across my face. When I walked to the door of the monastery, I laughed.

At the door, the white gauze lifted up from the eyes, and he saw Mr. Yuan sitting there playing the strings of the piano.

He raised his head and looked at me, smiled, and didn't say anything. I didn't say anything, I just nodded and walked in.

Walking up to him, he pointed to the soft couch opposite the guqin and said: "Madam, please sit down."

I sat down, and the servant brought a bowl of fragrant tea and then left. He and I sat in a room filled with the fragrance of books and the sound of the piano, without saying anything, just quietly listening to the slight trembling of the strings.

I couldn't help but raise my head and look at him carefully. He was still wearing a snow-white gown, which made his skin as white as snow. His long black hair was tied loosely behind his head, with only a strand of blue silk hanging down his cheek.

, brushing the smile lines at the corner of his mouth, he obviously didn’t say anything, but he seemed to have said a lot.

Such a man is as pure as a banished immortal. I don’t know what kind of girl his sweetheart will be. I’m afraid she must be a woman who looks like a fairy and is better than the number one scholar in order to be worthy of him.

After a while, he stopped, raised his head and smiled at me.

I also smiled.

"I came just now, and the young master's servant was already at the door. He said that the young master can make divination. He knew that I would come today. I wonder what kind of divination the young master made?"

Mr. Yuan smiled, pointed at my hand and said, "Isn't that the one?"

I lowered my head and saw that I was still holding the silk handkerchief in my hand. I understood immediately and handed the handkerchief over with a smile.

Mr. Yuan originally smiled and was about to reach out to take it, but suddenly he saw the palm of my hand and frowned: "Why, your injury is not healed yet?"

I looked down and saw that the wound on my palm had split open that day and it hadn’t healed yet. Mr. Yuan said, “What’s going on? I applied medicine to you that day——”

I hurriedly said: "Young Master's medicine is good medicine. After I took it, I felt much better the next day."

"Then what-"

"Uh, this... this is because I was not careful."

As I said that, I couldn't help but think of what happened that day in Yuan Yichu's study, and my face couldn't help but become a little gloomy. Mr. Yuan glanced at me, as if he understood, and took the handkerchief, but his face was also a little stiff and silent.

Come down.

There were only two of us in the room. As soon as the sound of the piano stopped, the two of us became quiet immediately without speaking. But this kind of quietness was different from the quietness of the two people sitting opposite each other before. I don’t know why, but I felt it from him.

There was an almost suppressed anger, although there was no expression on his face.

Involuntarily, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

I could only find something to say and said: "By the way, Mr. Yuan said that he came to Dongzhou this time to find his sweetheart. Have you found that girl?"

He looked up at me, was silent for a moment, and said, "Found it."

"Then, why don't you take her away yet?"

"Because she is already married."

"Ah?" I was slightly surprised. I didn't expect that his sweetheart was already married. No wonder he was in a bad mood. It turned out that such a thing happened.

Just when I wanted to comfort him, Mr. Yuan looked at me again and said, "Madam, I want to ask you a question."

"Excuse me."

"If...if she is not doing well, if her husband is not good to her, should I take her away by force?"

I was stunned for a moment, I didn't expect him to ask me that.

A pair of lovers were supposed to get married eventually, but the girl married someone else, and she didn't marry well. However, if Mr. Yuan wants to take her away, it will be unreasonable, and he will eventually be criticized by the world.
p>

But, that girl’s happiness is just...

Thinking of this, I somehow thought of myself and Yuan Yichu, and felt a little sad. But I hurriedly shook my head to put aside those thoughts. When I looked up, Yuan Yichu was still looking at me, as if he was waiting.

My answer.

"Master Yuan, this..."

"Should I take her away?"

I hesitated and said, "Why didn't you marry her in the first place?"

I just asked casually, but Mr. Yuan suddenly froze. There was a look of pain in his clear eyes, as if his heart was bleeding. I suddenly panicked and was at a loss to comfort him.

He, at this moment, the servant walked to the door, holding a large box of things in his hand, and said: "Sir, I'm going."

Mr. Yuan was shocked, as if he suddenly woke up. He looked back at him and said, "Yes."

I hurriedly changed the subject and said, "What are you going to do?"

Mr. Yuan said: "Soldiers and horses from Shengjing came for a sneak attack last night and injured many people. We have been fighting here for a long time and there is not enough wound medicine, so I asked him to send some."

"Sneak attack?" I was shocked: "Was it a serious attack?"

"Not many people came, but they came for a sneak attack in the middle of the night. The people here relaxed their vigilance, so they caused some damage, but they did not break down the city gate. They only injured some soldiers."

It turned out that it was really just a sneak attack. No wonder I was not awakened last night, and no one told me today. When I first came here, everyone along the way seemed so panicked.

However, Luo Shi had clearly said before that he would give Dongzhou a month. Now that the one-month deadline has not come, how could they suddenly launch a sneak attack? Moreover, according to Mr. Yuan, their purpose was not to break through Dongzhou City.

, just to create chaos.

This seems to be a warning to someone.

I hurriedly asked: "Are many people injured?"
