Chapter 53
"Ah Xu, Ah Xu."
Li Xu sat up from the couch, and in the dark he grabbed the dagger under the pillow: "Who?"
"It's me." Helanbi said softly.
Li Xu lit the light, ran over and opened the door, and Helanbi came in and saw the dagger on the table, and was stunned for a moment.
The prince was deposed and Li Xu lived on the tip of the knife. It seemed that he had never had a good night's sleep.
"Have you heard it?" Helanbi took off his hat and said with joy: "The prince's brother was named King of East China Sea. His fief is the richest among the princes."
Li Xu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he asked, "The Lord wants to let the prince out of the palace?"
Helanbi nodded, and saw Li Xu so happy, tears burst out from his eyes, and asked, "The prince will go to the fiefdom tomorrow. From now on, you may never see him, and you will be so happy."
"The palace is too dangerous. When he arrives on his fiefdom, no one will harm him. As long as he is alive, I believe I will see you again one day." Li Xu seemed a little disbelief and said, "A few days ago, I didn't have any rumors, saying that he wanted him to die?"
"You know it's a rumor, too." Helanbi said: "It's better to live and part with you than to die. Come with me and see him again while the prince's brother is still in the palace."
"Can I see him?"
Helanbi nodded and said, "We have to go quietly, follow me."
Li Xu took a robe and put it on, and followed Helan Bi out.
It was already deep winter, the dark night was deep and cold, and there was no moonlight at all. He followed Helan Bi tightly. They walked through the corridors, walked through the long palace roads, and finally arrived in front of the East Palace Gate.
Li Xu's hands were shaking. He hadn't seen Zhou Ying for almost a year.
The East Palace has always been guarding tightly. Today, there are only a few guards outside. Helanbi took out his waist sign from his arms, and the guards guards at the door let them in.
The East Palace was not yesterday. The courtyard was bleak, and the weeds in the corners of the walls had grown taller, and the whistling north wind rustled. In the huge palace, only a window was lit up.
The light seemed to shine into Li Xu's heart all at once. His eyes lit up and he ran towards the light.
The north wind blew his robe and his figure was particularly thin. Li Xu went up the steps and walked to the bright spot.
He opened the window and saw Zhou Ying sitting upright inside.
Today, Zhou Ying has changed from being haggard and down-out in the past. Her robes are bright and bright. Under the candlelight, she still looks noble and heroic. Her eyes are much softer and she waves gently: "A Xu, come here."
Li Xu bent down and entered the window, and suddenly threw himself into Zhou Ying's arms.
He threw Zhou Ying to the ground, and Zhou Ying laughed and hugged him in his arms.
"Aying, Aying." Li Xu called.
"Yeah." Zhou Ying pressed his head, her eyes became wet, and she kissed his neck.
The two of them hugged each other tightly for a while, and Li Xu suddenly stood up and looked at Zhou Ying and asked, "The Lord is going to let you out of the palace. Do you know that you are the King of East China Sea. In the future, life will be better if you are on your own territory."
Zhou Ying nodded with a smile and said, "I've known it for a long time."
Li Xu looked at Zhou Ying, and couldn't help but hug him and said, "If you can live well, I don't have to be afraid of you dying every day, nor is it in vain that I kowtow and worship Buddha every day."
"Are you afraid that I will die?"
"Of course." Li Xu let go of him again, tears had already flowed out. He knelt on him, holding his face and said, "There is always hope in life. We will always see each other again in the future. Maybe I will beg for the second prince and he will let me go."
"This is what I want to say to you," Zhou Ying said with a gentle voice, a little hoarse voice, "My fiefdom is far away, and I don't know when I will meet you again. You are thinking of me, I am thinking of you, we both must live well, as long as we live, we will always meet."
Li Xu nodded wildly, tears fell down his face. In fact, separation is also very uncomfortable, but it is always better than separation from death.
Zhou Ying reached out to wipe away the tears from his cheeks, took out the pair of jade pendants from his arms and said, "Why did you put them secretly outside the window last time? Keep them, and make a thought by your side, as I will accompany you."
Li Xu held the jade in his hand, and the jade pendant still had the remaining warmth from Zhou Ying's body.
He looked up at Zhou Ying, his emotions suddenly lost control, his face became a little twisted, his face turned red, he held the jade pendant and covered his face. Zhou Ying held him in his arms again, and Li Xu wanted to tell him that he had harmed him, sorry for him, he was the second prince, and approached him to pull him off from the position of the Lord of the Eastern Palace. He had indeed done a lot of things that hurt him. When he fell to this point, he also pushed him.
But all words are meaningless, they are in harmony and understand each other.
"You saved me. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to hold on. I'm very happy to live more of these situations." After Zhou Ying said this, a tear slid across his handsome and heroic face and fell on the jade pendant held by Li Xu: "A Xu, I will always come to see you in the next life and in this life."
"There will definitely be that day," said Li Xu.
His eyes were sad, but very bright. Perhaps he was still thinking that he would work hard to climb up. In the future, he would not be a little eunuch controlled by mermaid meat. At that time, he would be able to be with the person he loved for a long time.
It was getting brighter outside the window, and Li Xu sat alone in front of the window, holding the jade pendant in his hand tightly.
Helanbi suddenly pushed open his door and shouted: "Ah Xu!"
The cold north wind rushed in, her voice trembling, her eyes were red and swollen as she looked at him.
Li Xu straightened his body as if he had some premonition.
Helanbi said: "Axu, I can't lie to you. The prince's brother is not going to the fiefdom, but he is going to be executed. But they are unwilling to kill him in the palace, so he will die halfway."
"What?" Li Xu said as he immediately got up and wanted to run outside. He Lanbi grabbed him and shouted, "I'm going to tell him quickly!"
"The prince's brother has known for a long time!" Helanbi said: "He has known for a long time."
Li Xu looked at her blankly, a strand of hair scattered and his eyes were red.
"The second prince can't bear it, so he asked you to see him for the last time. He asked me to lie to you, Ah Xu, we will never see the prince's brother again in the future. I can't lie to you, I can't lie to you..." Helanbi sobbed and said, "If you don't know, the prince's brother is too pitiful, and you are too pitiful."
Li Xu's face instantly turned red.
"No one is allowed to say anything to the second prince. I will tell you, just know it in your heart, don't tell it to outsiders. The prince and brother don't want you to know it either. They all... want you to keep hope and live well."
Li Xu instantly fell from the sky to hell.
If Zhou Ying could live, even if he could never see him again in his life, he would admit it, and his wish would be so small.
Helanbi burst into tears silently and let go of his hand: "He is about to leave the palace, you can go and see him for the last time."
Li Xu immediately ran out. He was wearing only a thin robe and barefoot. Snowflakes floated outside. The sky was just bright and his feet were red. The palace was covered in silver. He ran out of breath, his clothes were loose, and his thin chest was exposed. Then he saw the carriage that Prince Zhou Ying was riding.
He was stunned for a moment and immediately ran up.
The curtain of the car suddenly lifted up, and Zhou Ying saw him at the car window and immediately reached out to her hand.
Li Xu grabbed his hand and ran with the carriage. Suddenly he burst into tears. He couldn't say anything. He didn't know what to say, but he just looked at Zhou Ying and shook his head.
The jade pendant fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.
The close-up lasted nearly a minute, until the guard pulled his hand away and pushed him to the ground, there was no line.
After the music stopped, everything was silent, snowflakes fell all over my head, and there was only the whistling sound of the wind. Li Xu kowtowed a long head to the carriage that was leaving.
The theme song of "The East Palace is Coming" sounded, and two shots appeared.
One is the prince sitting in the carriage, with his eyes closed and blood dripping from the corners of his mouth.
It was obviously a scene of dying by taking poison.
Then the camera faded, and it turned out to be the love of Prince Zhou Ying and Li Xu at the royal dinner. This is a classic shot of Jintai Qiongying. Li Xu raised his eyebrows, looked at the prince, lowered his head, and smiled with a gentle smile on his lips.
The picture is frozen and the ending song is ringing.
"Oh my god, I'm so crying!"
"Is the prince dead like this?! I cry!"
"A close-up of one and a half minutes, Shen Jintai is awesome!"
"The acting skills are so explosive that I get goosebumps all over my body!"
"He took this scene without makeup, so why is it so beautiful?"
"This original work is so heartbreaking! However, many lines have been deleted. Here, Li Xu and the prince have a farewell, but they have nothing to do with it."
"I think the handling is very advanced. Li Xu didn't even call his name. Zhou Ying lifted the curtain when he heard the footsteps. He lifted it up quickly and quickly. Really, the feeling of mutual understanding suddenly came out, and I was just there and burst into tears."
"Looking at each other is speechless, because the words are pale, sadness and helplessness come out all of a sudden. I should have said everything I want to say, but their respective emotions are too complicated. I can't say it, and I cry."
"After deleting the parting lines and the specific scenes of the prince committing suicide, can I expect the prince not to die? The humble expectations of the girl Qiongying from Jintai!"
"Shen Jintai's acting skills are really amazing here, the camera is also amazing. The director is so fucking good at shooting, and he burst into tears for the head flower!"
"Really, I couldn't help it after a long time. I cried alone and became a silly. My mother was so scared that she thought something had happened to me."
"I'm different from you. When we watched it together in our dormitory, we were all crying. I want to send a blade to the crew!"
"I really can't stand it. I originally said I came for the palace fighting drama, but I didn't expect to be abused like a dog!"
"I think Shen Jintai's performance without lines is worthy of the King of Video."
Today's ending song ends, and next week's trailer has changed the habit of editing the most exciting palace fights in the past, but is a trailer without lines.
It was snowing heavily, and Li Xu staggered along the way he came, looking for it. There was no soundtrack, only the north wind and his breathing.
Finally he squatted down, the camera moved to the ground, and the snowflakes half-covered the jade pendant that was broken into two pieces. His fingers were slender and cold red.
Li Xu's hair turned gray all night.
Voiceover: "Aying, my tears have shed for you. From now on, I will never shed a single tear again. My tears will let others shed for me."
Yan Qiuchi turned off the TV and couldn't calm down for a long time.
After taking a shower, the shock and dull pain in his heart were still there, which was something he had never seen before.
He put on his clothes and went downstairs.
In the hall downstairs, the aunts were discussing it in a hurry. Mrs. Yan couldn't watch Shen Jintai's crying scene, and her voice was full of crying. She blew her nose and turned her head to look at Yan Qiuchi who was going downstairs: "You want to go out?"
Yan Qiuchi said "um" and went out.
It's winter and it's very cold at night.
He drove directly to the set. "The East Palace is Coming" was still filming night scenes. On winter nights, the lights were also filled with night mist. During the day, the palace walls and stones were too bright, and they also felt cold and vicissitudes.
As soon as he arrived on the set, he saw a person walking towards him.
The man had the crew's headlights behind him, which were very bright, and almost all his figure melted into the halo, with only a slender shadow.
Then the shadow gradually became clearer and the person was revealed.
It turned out to be Shen Jintai.
I don't know why it's so coincidental.
Shen Jintai was wearing a black down jacket that was up to his feet, holding the script in his hand. When he saw him, he was stunned for a moment, and then nodded at him with a smile and shouted: "Mr. Yan, good evening."
