Rebirth of the White Cloud

Chapter 25

It was night, Yun leisurely walked towards Xu Zhai.Wearing ordinary clothes, really, not used to it.Going to pass the decree openly is different from being like a shadow in normal times. Although there is a curfew, I still feel like being watched along the way, which is really uncomfortable.Alas, it seems that the child is already disgusting himself. Once he gets along with Miss Yanyu, he can't find the north. He wished that everyone around him would retreat cleanly... Yun Sisi, does he need to go back later? But in the end I am still afraid that the child will be in danger. After all, the recent actions will somewhat irritate the Prime Minister, and today the child went to see the mirror, maybe something will go wrong...

Thinking of this, Yun put away his thoughts of wanting to get drunk with his friends to relieve his worries. He only thought that he had to go back as soon as possible after delivering the decree, so he quickened his pace.

As soon as he walked outside the wall, he saw Mr. Yangming preparing to play tricks on his old friend whom he hadn't seen for many years.Oh, is it repeating the old trick again?Yun secretly wanted to laugh, Yang Mingjun had been doing this for so many years, but he still couldn't change his habit of not taking the main road and digging over Xu's fence every day.Seeing Yang Ming-kun like this is like going back to the days when we were together when we were young - I really miss it.Yun couldn't help being joking, and while Yang Mingjun leaped in in an attempt to scare Xu Yan, he suddenly jumped up and quietly hid behind Xu Yan.

"Lord Yang Mingjun, you surprised me!" No matter how many times, Xu Yan still praised Yang Mingjun so much.Yun couldn't help but shook his head inwardly, obviously he had never been frightened before.Even if I have been scared once, for so long, time and time again, how can this method of scaring still work.Cloud, still dormant quietly.

"It's just to scare you!" Looking at the frightened Xu Yan, Yang Mingjun laughed loudly.

"Why do you come in over the wall every time?" Xu Yan shook his head.

"This is... this is because - compared to the gate, I am more familiar with the wall. Besides, there is a curfew at this time, and it took me a lot of effort to avoid those inspections."

Yes, in order to see Yanyu, this wall is more familiar to Mr. Yangming than the gate. Thinking of Miss Yanyu in the palace, Yun's gloomy mood returned. At this time, His Highness should not be asleep yet. If it's too early to go back... Do I have to make do with another night outside the palace?Cloud is very contradictory.

"Come on, it's so cold, let's go in and have a drink or two." Yang Mingjun's words reminded Yun, so Yun quietly walked out from behind Xu Yan.Sure enough, I saw two people who were frightened.The melancholy worries just now seemed to have disappeared suddenly.

"Qi Yun, why did you come here so late?" Yang Mingjun asked, his face turned pale from fright. "Scared me! Why did you appear without making a sound? Could it be that you also climbed over the wall like me?"

"After all, it's getting late." Unwilling to answer directly, Yun chose to find a reason.

"Are you here by the king's order, or are you here to meet a close friend?"

Xu Yan's question made Yun feel suffocated.It seems that we haven't seen each other for so long, but there is still a gap.Is it necessary to distinguish between coming by the king's order or by a close friend?Seeing an old friend whom we haven't seen for many years, shouldn't we be elated first?

Xu Yan also seemed to realize that this remark was inappropriate, so he greeted him and turned around to prepare food and drinks.

"Your Highness has an order, please Lord Yibin enter the palace and have a talk." At the banquet, Yun explained the purpose of his visit.

"Suddenly called me into the palace, what's the matter?" Xu Yan asked, and suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly, "Heh, if I didn't say it and His Highness the Lord explained the reason himself, you would never have told me."

Hearing Xu Yan's questions and answers, Yun didn't know what he should answer.Say you haven't changed?No, how could it not have changed - when I was a teenager, I never thought about children, but now... I am afraid that I can't think of anything other than children.It seems that the one who knows me best is my best friend.However, how to repair this kind of gap?Oh, forget it, there is no problem even if you let nature take its course, after all, the truth will be revealed soon, when the rebellion of the relatives is put down... I will not be around anymore.So what does it matter?But when the truth comes out, how will Xu Yan see himself?Frustrated?It can't be so ruthless, right?

"Since the king's order has been conveyed, I'll go first." Resisting the moisture in his eyes from the bottom of his heart, Yun said with a smile.Sure enough, you should leave quickly.

"Are you going to leave so soon?" In fact, I was a little uncomfortable because my brother, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, was defending others everywhere, so I spoke more seriously.However, it is indeed not easy to see this side.Not to mention that even if you see it, you can't say a few words.

"It's been too long since I've been away." Yun unconsciously said what was in his heart in front of his best friend.

Hearing Yun's answer, even Lord Yangming couldn't stand it any longer, showing an expression of "knowing that he would be like this".

Just as he was about to sit up, Yun found a yellow letter among the books on the side table—it was almost exactly the same paper as the letter that Miss Yanyu presented to the children.Yun Qi's figure couldn't help but pause.

Noticing Yun's gaze, Xu Yan said, "That's the birthday present that Yanyu made for me back then."

"So, that's your sister's handwriting?" was answered in the affirmative.Yun suddenly thought, if the child sees that Miko and Misty Rain have the same handwriting, will they discover something in advance?In this way, will the child no longer waver and struggle?

After making up his mind, Yun was about to leave, but when he left the room, he found someone peeping from the wall.Could it be the intermediary sent by Prime Minister Yin?Yibin just returned to the capital and he couldn't sit still?No, those in the middle will wear black clothes when they move at night, and the person in front is obviously just an ordinary young warrior.Unaware of the opponent's intention, Yun decides to try the samurai's skills, but finds that although the opponent's martial arts is not high, his every move is unexpected-with traces of his own swordsmanship, is this, Xue?Yun couldn't help but stop, and was about to ask, but the samurai ran away.Shaking his head, it's unprofessional to pretend to be a man for Xue Nu.Looking at the back of the figure that is obviously a girl, it seems that it really is an old friend.Looking at Xu Yan who had already turned back, Yun suddenly felt that everything can become a mess if the word "emotion" is attached to it.Shaking his head, as if trying to get rid of the mess in his heart, Yun hurried back to the palace.

At this time in Xu Zhai, the banquet was still going on.

"Yangming-jun, you can't drink any more."

"No, let me drink. Xu Yan, do you know that the night before the final choice eight years ago, I did the same thing. I climbed over the fence and came in. At that time, I said to your sister: 'Whether it is the prince's status , or Yang Mingjun's title, I can abandon it and take you away. 'But, do you know how your sister answered?' This joke is not funny.' The sparkling eyes showed out of her firm will. I can't go on."

Who would have thought that after this, she would die of illness and forget about the past. The wish "she ran away with me" really came true.But facing her who trusted me so innocently, I found myself afraid.If one day, she remembered everything in the past, would she still choose to trust me?Will she give me that smile the way she has for eight years?Will she still write congratulatory letters on my birthday with carefully selected stationery?Was she to me—brotherhood or admiration?

I am afraid, I dare not ask the exit.I dodged my eyes and avoided her. When I was depressed, I thought about going out for a while to get some air, but when I went back, it became another situation again.She was taken away, and the state witch prevented me from going to rescue her, and said some unknown things like "If I rescue her, that adult will be in danger of life".If that day, I ignored the state witch's stop to rescue her, if I hadn't evaded, dodged, or concealed my sincerity with a smile... If I had revealed all my sincerity, if I had shown more courage.So now... will she be by my side?

Yangming Jun stretched out his palm and smiled wryly.Are these all life?Yangming, Yangming, bright sunshine... But no matter how bright the sun is, it can't compare with the sun... Yangming, Yangming... Misty rain, misty rain...

Jun Yangming, who didn't listen to Xu Yan's dissuasion, was once again so drunk that he couldn't wake up...

Yun, who hurried back to the Forbidden Army's office, changed the guard's service, and shuddered when he opened the door.It actually snowed.Hearing the usual bell ringing, Yun thought for a while and rushed to Kangning Hall without adding any clothes.

When Yun arrived at the main hall, Yanyu was already standing in front of King Xuan.Just as Yun sat down on his knees in the corner, he heard King Xuan ask in a stern tone: "Is it okay to fight back against me in letters? I can fully understand how deep your resentment is to me - the words in your pen are clearly I'm blaming the widow."

"The servant did not blame you. Advising with loyalty and complaining with personal feelings are not the same."

"It's not a complaint, but it's a blame, isn't it?"

"I just want to say that just like a stone on the side of the road, there is also a reason for its existence. As a witch and a commoner of His Highness, this servant also vows to do her best for His Highness."

Hearing such an answer, Lian Yun couldn't help saying hello in his heart.King Xuan seemed to have sensed the appreciation in Yun's eyes, and suddenly a burst of anger welled up in his heart. He stood up and ordered: "Come on, I'm very bored in my heart, I want to go for a walk, hurry up and get ready."

"The evening wind is a bit chilly, why not wait until tomorrow?" Shan Heng was worried about King Xuan's body, and kindly suggested.

But was interrupted by King Xuan: "The widow said he was upset, didn't you hear me?"

Yun got up, ready to go out with the child.King Xuan turned his head when he walked to Yun, and gave an order to the kneeling witch: "Didn't you say that you want to prevent bad luck for the widow? Why don't you do your duty at this time? Since it is a spell, then follow Let me go." With that, he walked out of the hall.

Yun now regrets that he didn't add another dress. Although the snow has stopped outside, it is colder when the snow melts than when it snows, not to mention it is already late at night.It's just that I'm glad that my clothes are thin, so that I can stay awake.Children immersed in love are really moody, and this kind of unplanned change of mood is the easiest way to paralyze people and ignore the dangerous situation.

King Xuan, who was walking ahead, didn't feel the cold all over his body at all, because he was too irritable in his heart.Although the witch walking beside her had nothing to do with the Yin family, she was sent by the princess after all.Moreover, this witch always gives people the feeling that she is from an old friend, like a friend she has known for a long time, a bit like the "Imperial Concubine" who was once selected - Misty Rain.Why are quotation marks used here, because King Xuan felt that those were all things in the past.What's more, Misty Rain doesn't really admire herself that much.It's just like-minded, and let nature take its course.This witch is as talented and spiritual as Misty Rain, but it makes "Yun, who has always only had eyes for widows", different from her.Thinking of what Yun once said to him about witchcraft and black spells, King Xuan felt even more that maybe the two of them knew each other from the beginning.So even more annoyed.I originally wanted to use this witch as a shield to test the members of the Yin family inside and outside the palace, but now I always feel that I should respect this witch—— King Xuan thinks, if Yun and this witch really know each other , then at least one should follow the consent of the miko, although this matter is just a notification, there is no option to disagree.

Thinking of this, King Xuan stopped in his tracks. "Stand back," King Xuan ordered, seeing that the servants did not follow through, King Xuan raised his voice: "I tell you to back off." He looked at Yun, "Yun, you also back off."

Yun bowed his head and took orders.This is—this is the first time, the child changed the tone of calling himself, no longer the slightly coquettish ending sound like before, but simply called "Yun".Yun laughed at himself in his heart, if he knew this earlier, why did he rush back in such a hurry today?Yun moved his steps and backed away.So Shan Heng and the other servants also retreated slightly.

However, King Xuan grabbed the witch's hand and stopped her footsteps: "You are the widow's spell, you can't go." As he spoke, he told the servants to back off.

Seeing the child holding Miss Yanyu's hand and excluding everyone, including himself, from the world of the two of them, Yun felt a throbbing pain in his heart.This kind of pain is more painful than the whip that was lashed on him back then, and it also hurts the knee after being punished to kneel back then.It feels more painful than when I died in my previous life.Yun suddenly rejoiced that he had such a healthy body in this life, at least he wouldn't be in danger of dying if he hurt—after all, he wanted to see more children.Even if he is with someone else.

As King Xuan walked, he unconsciously walked to the door of Yinyue Pavilion.Involuntarily, he turned his head to look at the attic, the first and biggest failure of his life so far.Misty rain... the sense of familiarity brought by that witch, does it mean that I don't want the widow to sacrifice this witch?But, otherwise, how can the widow hide the cloud?
