Waiting for pets

A few hours ago, we met each other in the palace, and meeting again in the middle of the night is another story.

He thought that man and nature would be separated forever, but he never expected to meet again in a foreign land after many years. Jiang Yi was ecstatic, but when he was close at hand, he was speechless.

"you……"

Jiang Yi couldn't help reaching out his hand to touch her, but Mu Zhi couldn't help avoiding it.

"Yuzhi, I haven't seen you for many years."

The smile is still the same, but there is a layer of unfamiliarity. The sound of "Yu Zhi" has appeared in dreams countless times, and I really heard it, and there is a sense of sadness that has suddenly passed away.

Jiang Yi's hand hangs down, he shakes it unconsciously and spreads it out, he puts it behind his back, and raises a gentle smile.

"It's good that you're still here."

The bright young man who used to sit side by side with him on the roof and drink to the moon can't come back, but as long as he is alive, it is really good.

Mu Zhili couldn't help but smile, "The person the little prince knew is no longer there, and the person in front of you at this moment is just a person who will die soon."

The smile on Jiang Yi's face gradually froze, and only then did he notice that the person in front of him was morbidly weak.

The moment before, he was still immersed in the joy of reunion, and the moment he was thrown into the abyss of despair.

Jiang Yi reached out to grab Mu Zhili's wrist again, this time she didn't dodge and let him feel his pulse to confirm.

He is not a doctor, because the concubine of Jin has been lingering on the sick bed all year round, and as time goes by, Jiang Yi naturally understands some medical principles.

After confirming again and again, Jiang Yi was shocked and froze.

"How come... there is no inner breath, your cultivation base is..."

Mu Zhili withdrew his hand, straightened his cuffs, and sighed, "Naturally, I have to pay a price to survive, and this is considered good. Some people want to live but die unexpectedly, and the survivors always have to fulfill their wishes for them. Rest in peace."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yi's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but retreated two steps dejectedly.

At this moment, Qing Ye entered the room and reported softly, "The movement from Li Yuan has disturbed the prince, and the prince is bringing people to Li Yuan."

Mu Zhili didn't speak, just raised his hand, Qingye understood, and tugged at Yuebai who was standing beside Mu Zhili in a daze.

Yuebai came back to her senses, took a deep look at Mu Zhili and left with Qingye.

Jiang Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally left before Mu Fei arrived at Liyuan, leaving a word before leaving.

"Tomorrow I will come to Ding'anhou's Mansion to visit, and I hope that the seventh son will appreciate me."

Mu Zhili didn't answer, and stood in front of the door, watching Jiang Yi climb over the wall and leave.

Jiang Yi's figure disappeared on the wall, and the disheveled Mu Fei appeared outside the courtyard with a man in a menacing manner.

"Who dares to break into the Marquis' mansion at night?"

Mu Zhili pointed to the wall that Jiang Yi climbed up just now, and said indifferently, "My lord, you came a step late, the little prince climbed over the wall and left."

She was very frank and told the truth.

Mu Fei approached, with a gloomy face, and said displeasedly, "He must have recognized you when he was in the palace, what did he say to you just now?"

Mu Zhili said, "The little prince just left a message, he will come to visit the Hou Mansion tomorrow."

"Just this sentence?" Mu Fei naturally didn't believe it.

Sneaking in secretly in the middle of the night, how could he only leave such a sentence.

Mu Zhili turned back to the house, and said when the door was closed, "If the prince wants to know what the little prince said, when the prince comes to the Marquis Mansion tomorrow, the prince will ask him in person."

With a soft 'bang', the door closed.

But Mu Fei laughed and said loudly, "I know you are annoyed by me marrying Shuoyue, don't worry, even if I marry ten princesses, I still have you in my heart."

The room was quiet and there was no response, but Aoba who was hiding in the corner almost vomited out the last night's meal.

After Mu Fei left, Qingye and Yuebai came out from the dark place, Qingye looked at the gate of the courtyard, scoffed in disgust, "How can there be such a shameless person in the world, who looks like a modest gentleman on the front, but is extremely dirty inside?" , It's disgusting, this kind of hypocrite dares to miss my master, toad, toad wants to eat swan meat..."

Yuebai at the side was silent, what he saw and heard just now shocked him beyond measure, and the speculation in his heart made him extremely happy.

"One day, I will stuff shit into the mouth of this hypocrite..." Qingye became more and more angry, and turned her head unintentionally, only to find that there was no one around.

He looked up and saw Yuebai rushing into the house, he was startled, and hurried to catch up.

"Hey, master has already rested, don't..."

Before he finished speaking, the person was locked outside the door, if it wasn't for his agility, his face would almost hit the door, Aoba gritted his teeth angrily, and wanted to raise his hand to push the door, but thought that the master didn't make a sound, he must have acquiesced.

Aoba curled her lips, sat down on the steps, and watched silently outside.

Inside the room, Mu Zhili undressed behind the screen, and Yue Bai stood in the room, looking at the blurred figure on the screen.

For a while, no one spoke, and the room was extremely quiet.

After Mu Zhili changed into pajamas, he did not come out from behind the screen.

After a long time, it was Yuebai who was the first to lose her composure, and took a step forward, still so nervous that her palms were sweating through the screen.

"You...but him?"

There was a moment of silence behind the screen, and when he was about to ask again, Mu Zhili laughed, his voice was not as deep as usual, but more like the crisp laughter of a woman playing.

"Who is he in your mouth?"

After a laugh, the voice of the person behind the screen was quite different from usual, Yuebai's heart trembled when he heard something flashed through his mind, he suddenly had a splitting headache, hugged his head, and murmured in pain.

"Thank you, Xie Chonghua..."

"You are Chonghua, why don't you recognize me?"

With short gasps and grunts of pain, Mu Zhili turned around abruptly, stopped when he was about to pull his legs out, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Yuebai had a splitting headache, gasped heavily, and persistently asked, "Are you Chonghua?"

Mu Zhili sighed softly, "Xie Jia Chonghua is upright and awe-inspiring. He gallops on the battlefield, is brave and invincible, and has the world in his heart. I can't compare to him."

Her heart is too small to pretend to be a family and a country.

But Yuebai thought that she was unwilling to recognize him, so she became angry suddenly, under extreme anger, she lost her composure, ignored her, and walked around the screen to confront her.

"You are willing to admit that you are Xie Chonghua in front of Jiang Yi, but deny it in front of me...you..."

Yuebai's anger dissipated without a trace when she saw the real face of the person behind the screen, her eyes widened, staring at her in astonishment.

Blue hair like a waterfall, white teeth and bright eyes, the four eyes are facing each other, and there is a moment of astonishment at this moment in the pair of smart eyes that have been engraved on the heart since childhood.

It's him, but it's not.

Xie Chonghua is the only son of General Xie, the son of a general, a young general, how could he be a woman?

Yuebai froze in place, forgetting to avoid it.

"Chong, Zhonghua..."

She didn't expect him to rush over suddenly, and after a moment of astonishment, she returned to normal, came to stand still in front of him, and told him to look carefully and clearly.

"See clearly, I'm not Xie Chonghua."

Yuebai lowered her head slightly, staring at the face in front of her eyes, which gradually coincided with the immature face in her memory.

"You are." He was very sure, "You are the one who went to see me in the cold palace, you were the one who brought me clothes and food, and you were the one who promised to take me out of the cold palace one day but broke his promise..."

The latter crime made her dumbfounded.

"I was not in Beijing when you left the cold palace."

Although she was not in the capital at that time, she was the one who offered advice to her father and told him to advise him when he went to court, and she justifiably got him out of the cold palace.

She is too innocent to be beaten up by him now.

Yuebai said again, "I know it was General Xie who saved me, thinking that it must be your credit, so I hoped that you would come to see me every day, but you never came to see me after that."

Not only that, but what he often heard afterwards was about the friendship between Mr. Xie's family and the young prince of the Prince Jin's mansion, horse racing and Cuju, cockfighting with arrows, and angry horses in fresh clothes.

And even though he left the cold palace and became a prince, he still couldn't get out of the palace gate, and he couldn't see the person he wanted to see.

These grievances have been held in my heart for many years. I thought there would never be an answer, and I could only recall all my thoughts alone.

But at this moment, he felt that God had treated him well.

Mu Zhili naturally heard his grievances, but did not explain much, distanced himself from him, walked around the screen and walked towards the bed.

"Qingye's medical skills are fair, ask her to show you later."

Yuebai raised her eyes to look at her, she had already put down the curtain to block his gaze.

The joy of being lost and regained made the nervousness worthless, and Yuebai didn't want to just go out like this.

Everything that happened tonight was so unreal that I was afraid to wake up and find it was just a dream.

He has a thousand words to say, and it is good to guard her silently.

She turned out to be a daughter. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and confirmed that she was the same person when he was a child, he would never have thought that she would be a woman.

In the next few years, Xie Chonghua entered the military camp with his father and went to battle to kill the enemy. He rarely had the opportunity to return to Beijing, and the number of times he entered the palace was even less, but every time he secretly went to wait and see.

That heroic and tall figure is not the same person as the one in front of her.

What secret is hidden in this?

"You and Xie Chonghua..."

He has too many doubts, only she can answer him.

If she is not Xie Chonghua, then who is she.

Every time General Xie brought his son into the palace to receive a reward, how could the heroism of Little General Xie be fake.

Mu Zhili lay on the bed, lifted a corner of the curtain, but only showed his wrist, and said helplessly, "If you continue to pester me, I will ask someone to drag you out."
