Chapter 833: Backsliding (5)

Zhao Yue likes seclusion, coupled with the cold relationship with her mother Yang Guifei, and deliberately estranged, so very early, she took the initiative to ask to live in a remote palace, that is, the cold palace, after the coup ended, many people were hit, Zhao Yue survived, and lived in the cold palace, but there was no need to make room, and no one paid attention to her, and there was almost no sense of existence.

Li Xun walked into the deserted palace, looked at the surrounding environment, and sighed in his heart for a while, he was very familiar with it here, in the years when he was studying in the palace, he often came here to secretly date Zhao Yue, and told her stories, more than ten years have passed, time flies really fast!

In the courtyard, Zhao Yue squatted on the ground, washing vegetables, and there was a basin on one side, which contained cleaned rice, and on the other side, a palace maid who was one or two years younger than Zhao Yue, dressed in gray rough clothes, was holding a big bucket and walked to the kitchen with difficulty, this palace maid is called Xiaoqiu, and she is Zhao Yue's favorite and closest palace maid, and she is also the only palace maid here now.

Xiaoqiu didn't walk smoothly, as if she had a wound on her leg, and there was a hideous scar on her face that spanned her entire face, and the scar was red and swollen in color, obviously a recent injury.

After the coup d'Γ©tat, Zhao Yue's mother Yang Guifei and his imperial brother Zhao Shuo, the king of Chu, were arrested and strictly forbidden to be guarded, and the two were soon killed one after another.

Xiao Lezi knew that Li Xun and Zhao Yue had a very close relationship, and after hearing about this, he simply transferred all the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace where Zhao Yue lived and dismissed them, which seemed to be making Zhao Yue ugly, but in fact, without those palace maids and eunuchs, Zhao Yue didn't have to worry, she was being ridiculed and bullied by the people around her.

Zhao Yue's eyes couldn't see, but her ears were very sensitive, she heard the sound of Li Xun walking, raised her head and asked softly, "Who is here?" ”

Li Xun looked at Zhao Yue, his heart was full of miserliness and pain, but there were some things he couldn't do, he couldn't intervene at all, he walked around many times, and finally said that Li Yi interceded for Zhao Yue, and it was already Li Xun who could do his best.

Li Xun walked up to Zhao Yue, squatted down, and put his hand in the basin.

"I'll help you."

Hearing this familiar voice, Zhao Yue's eyes suddenly turned red, but after some things, she was obviously much stronger than before, just for a moment, Zhao Yue smiled: "Brother Li Xun, you haven't been here for a long time, I am cooking today, you must stay." ”

Li Xun nodded: "I'm not leaving." ”

Li Xun and Zhao Yue, while washing the dishes, talking, Zhao Yue's face was full of smiles, she was obviously very happy about Li Xun's arrival.

Subsequently, Zhao Yue personally went to the kitchen to cook on the fire, Li Xun helped on the side, and the two of them were busy for most of the day, but they only made two dishes, both of which were vegetables, without any oil and water, and the clear soup was low and watery, not that Zhao Yue couldn't do it, but that she had these things here.

Looking at the two green vegetables on the table, Li Xun looked at Xiao Lezi, who shook his head with a wry smile, stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky, the meaning was very clear, it was not that he was unwilling to take care of Zhao Yue, it was Zhao Xun's meaning, and he couldn't do anything.

Xiaoqiu took out an egg from her arms and put it in Zhao Yue's hand: "Princess, this is what Pingchun secretly gave me, you can eat it." ”

Zhao Yue took the egg and handed it to Li Xun, and said with a sweet smile: "Brother Li Xun, give it to you." ”

Li Xun looked at Zhao Yue and saw something from her smile, so he smiled, did not refuse, took the egg, peeled it and ate it.

Xiao Lezi didn't eat this meal, Xiao Qiu didn't eat either, Zhao Yue just ate a little, but Li Xun ate all the rice and dishes, and didn't even leave the soup.

"It's so full, Princess Yue, the dishes you cook are still so delicious."

Li Xun patted his stomach and said with a smile.

Zhao Yue said happily: "It's good if you like to eat." ”

Li Xun looked at Xiaoqiu and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I let you finish eating alone, which will make you hungry, so I'll ask someone to send some food over later, which can be regarded as compensation for you." ”

Xiaoqiu looked at Li Xun with emotion, nodded and said, "Thank you, Li Xiangguo." ”

Li Xun waved his hand, and then said to Xiao Lezi: "I'm a dignified Xiangguo, you won't give this face, right?" ”

"I'll get someone to send it later."

In this situation, Xiao Lezi is also quite moved, adversity sees the truth, Li Xun's temperament, how can he not be admired and moved? I am willing to help with such a favor.

Zhao Yue whispered: "Brother Li Xun, it's been a long time since I've heard you tell Yue'er a story!" ”

Li Xun said softly: "I'll tell you." ”

Subsequently, Li Xun helped Zhao Yue to the study, and when he arrived at the door, Li Xun turned to Xiao Lezi and smiled: "Do you want to come in and listen to it?" ”

Xiao Lezi smiled: "I'm going to find someone to deliver something." ”

Xiaoqiu also hurriedly said, "I'll wash the dishes." ”

The two made excuses and left one after another.

Li Xun helped Zhao Yue into the study, turned around and just closed the door, and was hugged by Zhao Yue behind him.

Li Xun held the door with both hands, motionless.

"Brother Li Xun, I'm so afraid, I'm really afraid, my mother is dead, my brother is dead, my father is also dead, although I can't see it, I can feel it, everyone has a deep malice towards me, this malice makes my whole body chill."

Zhao Yue cried bitterly: "Brother Li Xun, will you take Yue'er out of here?" I like you, and I've always liked you since the day you told Yue'er stories. ”

Li Xun closed his eyes, his hands clenched into fists, he was not without a good impression of Zhao Yue, that kind of affection, Li Xun had never experienced in his life, very hazy, but very beautiful, very innocent, until Yang Guifei noticed the closeness of Li Xun and Zhao Yue, Li Xun and Zhao Yue's meeting began to become difficult, and even Li Yi heard the wind and said a lot to him, although the words were tactful, but the meaning Li Xun understood, some people are destined to be two worlds.

Over the years, Li Xun and Zhao Yue have met very little, but Li Xun has never forgotten Zhao Yue, not because he doesn't want to see him, but because he can't see it, he doesn't dare to see it, so he can only bury some things deep in his heart.

Zhao Yue cried for a while, her voice became quieter and quieter, and finally stopped crying, slowly let go of Li Xun, stepped back, and slowly sat down.

Li Xun turned to look at Zhao Yue, looking at her pale face, for a moment, a strong impulse suddenly surged in Li Xun's heart, but in the end.... It can only be silenced.
