Flowers are expensive

Chapter 392 Farewell 1
The moment she pushed the door open, she didn't see the disgusting scenes she had imagined, but only saw Zhao Xun standing by the table blankly, and Qiao Yuan sitting cross-legged on the table in front of her. Ten steps away, the innocence couldn't be more innocent!

When he heard the door knocking, Zhao Xun turned his face, glanced at Mingzhu in surprise, and asked, "What are you doing, Mingzhu?"

Mingzhu was a little stunned, looked at him, then at Qiao Yuan and asked, "Brother Zhaoxun, what are you doing here?"

"Of course I have my own business, you go back first." Zhao Xun's face turned pale, and his tone was slightly impatient.

Mingzhu hurriedly said: "I'll bring you the hangover soup, you drank a lot tonight! Let's go, drink the hangover soup first!" She said and wanted to help Zhaoxun, but Zhaoxun backed away One step dodges.Zhao Xun glanced at her indifferently, turned his face away and said, "You go back first, I still have things to do."

"Is there anything else important?" Mingzhu stepped forward to hold Zhaoxun's arm again and said, "Is there anything we can't wait until tomorrow? Let's go, brother Zhaoxun, if you fall outside, the wet nurse will Blame me for not taking good care of you. The nanny said, from today onwards, I have a marriage contract with you, and it is my duty to take care of you..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Xun suddenly withdrew his hand forcefully, seemingly dissatisfied.Mingzhu took a step back, her arms froze in the air in embarrassment, she stared at him blankly and asked, "Did I say something wrong, brother Zhaoxun? You agreed to be engaged to me! Although we can't get married right now, you can wait until now." In two years, you will be able to marry me, won't you?"

With his back to Qiao Yuan, Zhao Xun breathed heavily, waved his hands and said, "Mingzhu, I really have something else to do, you go back first, I will drink the rescue soup!"

Qiao Yuan on the small terrace slowly raised her lowered eyes, glanced at the two people, and seemed to understand something.The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, revealing an inexplicable smile, a bit like a sigh of relief, but also a bit like self-deprecating.

That's the way things are supposed to go, isn't it?Zhao Xun and Mingzhu got married, Youwang Mansion and Qi Wangfu married, how logical and story-filled it is!Didn't you always think so in your heart?Qiao Yuan said these words to herself silently, like a discussion, more like a comfort.

No wonder... when the man came in just now, he was silent for a long time. So it was hard to say those words!Qiao Yuan has the habit of meditating at night, and every time Zhao Xun enters the room at night, she will not open her eyes on her own initiative.When Zhao Xun started talking to her, she would slowly open her eyes and regain her senses.But today, after Zhaoxun came in, he didn't say a word, one was meditating and the other was watching.

The distance between each other is only about ten steps, but it seems that they are already far away...

"Brother Zhaoxun," Mingzhu didn't want to leave, she relied on Zhaoxun and said, "Look at you, your face is turning red like a crab, if you don't drink the hangover soup, you will pass out from drunk, let Miss Qiao Yuan watch the joke Let's go, let's not disturb Miss Qiao Yuan's rest!"

"That's right," Qiao Yuan said suddenly, "Both of you, it seems that we should change our place to express our heartfelt feelings to each other. Although I am your prisoner, you should also think about it. But in the final analysis, I should congratulate you two. gone."

Zhao Xun turned around slowly, and met Qiao Yuan's still water eyes as always, wanted to say something but couldn't say it.Originally, he wanted to tell Qiao Yuan himself about the engagement with Mingzhu.But standing in front of Qiao Yuan, he couldn't say anything.It wasn't until Mingzhu told him that he suddenly felt a sense of panic and realized that he and Qiao Yuan really might have nothing...

"Let's go, brother Zhaoxun!" Mingzhu grabbed Zhaoxun's arm and dragged it out vigorously.

Qiao Yuan didn't speak any more, and Zhao Xun couldn't say a word, just like that, after a few seconds of stalemate, Zhao Xun was dragged out of the room by Mingzhu.Mingzhu immediately turned around and closed the door, then took Zhaoxun's arm and said coquettishly: "Brother Zhaoxun, are you tired? Go back and drink the rescue soup and rest! Tomorrow morning, I will send you the miscellaneous fish porridge Here you go. The nurse said, that porridge is your favorite."

Zhao Xun's expression was a little sluggish, and he withdrew his hand, leaning against the rockery next to him.Seeing that, Mingzhu felt pain in her heart, and reluctantly went over and begged: "Brother Zhaoxun, can you not do this? Do you like Qiao Yuan that much? Maybe, you are just infatuated with her for a while. After a long time, you You'll find out that I'm actually not bad at all."

"I never said anything wrong with you." Zhao Xun said, looking down at the small puddle beside the rockery.

"Really? Actually, you don't dislike me that much, right?" Mingzhu said excitedly.

Zhao Xun turned his eyes and stared at Mingzhu for a moment, then took a deep breath and asked slowly, "Mingzhu, do you really want to be engaged to me?"

"Do you still need to ask this, brother Zhaoxun? You should know how I treat you! Is it possible that you want to go back on your word?" Mingzhu looked at him eagerly and said.

Zhao Xun smiled bitterly, shook his head lightly and said, "I won't go back on what I promised my master."

"Okay, let me help you go back and rest..."

"But," Zhao Xun interrupted her, "before that, there are a few things I must tell you clearly."

"You said."

"If I marry you, I won't be like my master to Banna Jingtai, I will take care of you like a husband, and I will live a good life with you like a husband..."

"I know, I know," Mingzhu nodded with satisfaction and smiled, "Brother Zhaoxun, I understand these words without you having to say them!"

"I haven't finished my words yet. Although I won't be like the master to Banna Jingtai, please forgive me, I won't be like the master to Miss Liang. Do you understand?"

Mingzhu's smile froze on her face for an instant, and after a while, she shook Zhaoxun's arm and said, "You just think this way for the time being, and when we really get married in the future, you will forget about Qiao Yuan and live a good life with me." !Wait later..."

"Mingzhu, I just said these words to tell you that if I really can't fall in love with you in this life, I will follow my promise and take care of you like a husband for the rest of my life. But if you complain in the future that I don't have the sincerity for you If so, then please think back to what I said today. I can promise to take care of you for the rest of my life, but I can't promise to forget Qiao Yuan..."

"No!" Mingzhu hurriedly interrupted Zhao Xun's words and argued, "You will forget it after a long time! At that time, you will only have my good in your eyes, and you will not remember Qiao Yuan any more. Brother Zhaoxun, don't be discouraged from the beginning, I believe you will forget about Qiao Yuan!"

Zhao Xun lowered his head, shook his head slowly and said: "Thank you for your trust, but even I can't believe in myself, so I can't promise that I will really like you. If the two of us are really together in the future Get over it, I hope you don't feel resentment in your heart, and don't complain that I don't have the heart for you, because you should know this from the beginning."

"Brother Zhaoxun..." Mingzhu bit her lower lip, looked at him sadly, and said, "Are you going to talk about this? Why don't you try to get along with me first? Maybe, our days will get closer and closer. OK?"

"As a person, I don't have any big thoughts. I just want to live my life peacefully and peacefully. I don't want to quarrel with you endlessly on this matter in the future. I don't want you to ask my heart Is there Qiao Yuan, and I don’t want you to guess what I’m thinking every day. If that’s the case, you’ll be tired, and I’ll be tired too, so I’ll tell you everything I need to say, and you’ll have to ask me these questions again in the future. , I will not answer you again."

"At the end of the day," Mingzhu said with tears in her eyes, "you just don't want to marry me, do you?"

Zhao Xun sighed lightly, lowered his head and did not speak.Mingzhu stomped her feet and asked tearfully: "You just want to tell me that you may never forget Qiao Yuan in this life, and you may never fall in love with me in this life, right?"

Zhao Xun leaned against the cold rockery wall, but still did not answer.Mingzhu sobbed softly, suddenly stepped forward and pushed him hard, then turned around and ran away crying.

Zhao Xun didn't chase her, but closed his eyes dejectedly, and sat down slowly along the stone wall.

In this way, Zhao Xun sat there all night.It wasn't until the next day when Yan Amber poked him awake that he suddenly woke up.Yan Amber squatted in front of him, and asked with a pitiful expression on her face, "Brother, did you stay here all night?"

"Well," Zhaoxun grabbed Yan Amber's arm, got up slowly and said, "to enjoy the coolness, can't you?"

"Okay!" Yan Amber nodded and said, "You can enjoy the cool air as much as you like, but I have to tell you something, I have sent Qiao Yuan out of the palace just now."

"What?" Zhao Xun's drowsiness was startled, "When? Why didn't you tell me?"

"Brother, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain! If you want to let her go anyway, do you still want to say goodbye to her? When you think about it later, won't you feel even more uncomfortable?"

"Don't worry about it!" Zhao Xun asked anxiously, "Where is he? How long have you been gone?"

"I just sent her out of the palace..."

"Which door did you go out from?"

"The back door of the west courtyard..."

Before Yan Amber finished speaking, Zhao Xun pushed him away and ran towards the back door of the west courtyard.Yan Amber shouted behind him: "What are you chasing after? Maybe people have gone far away! Brother Zhaoxun, stop chasing... Cough! What is this called? Even Brother Zhaoxun has gone crazy. Whose turn is it?"

"Who went crazy before?" Bingcan's voice suddenly sounded behind Yan Amber.

Yan Amber was taken aback, turned around and said with a smile: "No one, no one, hehe... Brother Bingcan, where are you going with Sister Zhuang so early?"

"Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival, I have to deal with some matters in the barracks, you go with me," Bing Can said, then turned to Zhuang Yunxian, "I went to Mrs. You's place and have a better attitude, you know? "

"Understood," Zhuang Yunxian let go of Bing's disabled arm and said, "You've explained it five times, okay, I'm going!"

"If you're bored and come to the barracks to find me after you're done, don't run around."

"Okay!" Zhuang Yunxian pulled away and left after speaking.

Yan Amber glanced at the back door of the west courtyard, and asked Bingcan, "What about brother Zhaoxun?"

"It's okay to go crazy before, but you're still worried about this one?" Bing Can squinted at him and said.

"That..." Yan Amber laughed, "Brother Bingcan, I really didn't mean you..."

"What nonsense," Bing Can kicked Yan Amber and said, "Let's go, you have nothing to do, he knows how to deal with it himself."

"Oh..." Zhao Xun ran out of the back door of the west courtyard in one breath, and finally saw Qiao Yuan's back at the end of the long back alley.Seeing that Qiao Yuan was about to turn around and disappear, he was so sad that he couldn't let go, so many words were reduced to two words: "Qiao Yuan!"

Qiao Yuan at the other end of the alley stopped, turned around slowly, and looked at Zhao Xun who was panting at the back door from a distance, a little surprised.She thought that she would leave alone like this, but she didn't expect that Zhao Xun would actually come to see her off.

Zhao Xun quickly ran towards Qiao Yuan, as if if she took one step slower, Qiao Yuan would disappear automatically.He knew that after parting with Qiao Yuan this time, even if they met again next time, he would not be able to get along with Qiao Yuan as before.How uncomfortable he felt, he didn't bother to count it down now, he just wanted to run to Qiao Yuan and say a few more words, just for future remembrance.
