The Story of the Charming Empress - C91

Qingcheng and Lin Feng didn’t know my identity, so they naturally didn’t understand my difficulties. Thus, they spent the entire day trying to persuade me to go to the Immortal Island with them.

That night, Yang Liang avoided Lin Feng and Qingcheng and stood alone with me outside the small courtyard.

As the moonlight scattered down, his face had a layer of hazy luster on it. Carrying Yin’s expectations, he said:

“Little Ling’Er, don’t leave. Let’s go to the Immortal Island together, okay?”

He reached out his hand to grab mine, but I dodged it without leaving a trace. With his appearance, it was obvious that he still held some hope for me. I could not let him continue to indulge himself like this.

I would rather he hate me than be shackled by hopeless emotions. Perhaps he thinks that as long as we spend time together, there will be a day when I will be moved by him. But in my heart, I have never thought about that.

“I told you, I can’t be with you.”

Yang Liang’s expression turned sorrowful, but it quickly eased up.

“I know that you are worried that Yang Guang will find out and implicate me, but in this world, could it be that in the Royal Territory, a single woman like you, where can you go? Do you want to be taken back to the palace by him? ”

Yang Liang was right. I didn’t leave because I had no place to go. The world is so big, yet I have nowhere to live. Who told my husband to be the Son of Heaven?

With a thought, perhaps the Immortal Island was truly a good place to go.

“The Immortal Island is in the sea, and there aren’t many people around. If it wasn’t for this coincidence, I’m afraid no one would have found it. If we could live in seclusion on the Immortal Island, we might have been able to live a peaceful life, and that would be better than worrying about it in Big Sui.”

Being far away from the mortal world, far from the hustle and bustle of the world, this was probably the reason why the Immortal Island gained its name.

“But, in the end, it is still inconvenient for me. What identity do I have to stay by your side?” I asked, staring at him.

He opened his mouth, but when he saw how sharp my eyes were, he didn’t say anything and just said:

“I know you have Yang Guang in your heart, so you won’t be my wife. I won’t hold any more hopes. We are friends, we are siblings, isn’t that great?”

I shook my head. You never married in the end, so what’s wrong with me following you? If you want me to go with you, it’s not impossible — “I deliberately cut short my sentence, and after thinking about it for a whole day, I was sure that Yang would persuade me to go to the Immortal Island, but I wasn’t sure if he would agree to my conditions.

Yang Liang’s face revealed a hint of joy as he said: “So, does this mean that little girl has agreed?”

I turned around and stared at his face filled with joy. I said word by word,

“You have to agree to a condition before I will go with you.”

Yang Liang was even happier. He rubbed his hands together and smiled as he agreed.

“As long as Little Ling’er doesn’t leave us alone, ten or a hundred wouldn’t be a problem, let alone one condition.”

I slightly focused and said with incomparable seriousness:

“You want to marry Qingcheng?”

I’ve been thinking about this for a long time. I always wanted to tell Yang Liang, but unfortunately, I never got the chance to say it out loud.

Qingcheng couldn’t help but be infatuated with Yang Liang. Such a woman shouldn’t have to endure such pain that was related to each other.

I also thought that Yang Liang would definitely object, but I couldn’t just sit by and watch Yang Liang and Qingcheng die.

Yang Liang had never been married before. Back then, the late emperor had once pointed out a marriage for him as well, but he refused to comply even if he died. Even the empress dowager couldn’t do anything to him.

I always thought that with time, Qingcheng and Yang Liang so deeply in love, one day, he will be rejuvenated.

Yang Liang wasn’t as angry as I thought he would be. I thought he would refuse so that I would be at a stalemate with him until he gave in.

“Why? I know that I cannot marry you as my wife, and this is already the regret of a lifetime.

I think at this moment, my face must be full of embarrassment and embarrassment. I am Yang Liang’s lover, and yet, at this moment, I am standing here, negotiating conditions with him, acting as a Red Media.

Stunned for a moment, I opened my mouth with difficulty and gave a reason that even I could not believe:

“You have already missed Qingcheng’s life, why can’t you give her a name? Of course, as your imperial sister-in-law, I also have the responsibility to do this. The Queen Mother, even until her death, was concerned about your marriage. ”

Yang Liang stared at me, his lips quivered a few times, then lost all color under the moonlight.

Heh, what a good sister-in-law! Do you also want to tell my mother that I have three things to do? “What a girl. Since you know that she and I agree to die together, then why can’t you marry me and help me achieve my goal?”

I know that I’m not in the right in this matter, and I shouldn’t be the one to poke at the paper between him and Qingcheng. I’m not the most suitable candidate, but I’m the only one here. And now, I can only say with great difficulty:

“You are different from her. I am the wife of a husband, and my husband is your elder brother. Furthermore, he is the emperor of Sui Yi. Have you heard of the empress marrying him? However, Qingcheng is different. You guys are unmarried, unmarried, and also the same type of person. Although you still have some stubborn thoughts, you are still a match made in heaven.

I want to be a little more ruthless, a little more ruthless. Let him hate me, as long as I can make him accept reality and face reality.

He kept thinking, how am I going to face it?

Yang Liang had a mocking smile on his lips as he looked me in the eye. Each word was like a needle, piercing my heart:

“I don’t dare to aspire to marry you as my wife and accompany you until the end of my life. I only hope to be able to see you from time to time and feel gratified. However, you lied to me and I agreed to your conditions. So this is how it is arranged? What is your motive for doing this? ”

His eyes were full of suspicion, as if I wasn’t trying to tie the knot but was instead trying to make a pair of lovebirds. I clenched my hands in my sleeves, my long nails pricking the palms of my hands. The pain spread all over my body, and I used this pain to suppress the pain in my heart.

A tear slipped from the corner of my eye. I lowered my head, trying to control my emotions, but it was as if a million voices were calling out in my heart: No, I don’t have any unspeakable purpose. I just want him to recognize reality and be more at ease with me.

No matter what, I’m still Yang Guang’s sister-in-law. From the moment I left the palace, this level of status can be regarded as nihility, but in my heart, there is an uncrossable chasm, and that chasm is Yang Guang.

“You’re crying?” Yang Liang held onto my shoulder, and when he saw the tears welling up in my eyes, he was at a loss for what to do.

“Little’er, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have talked back to you, so please don’t cry, okay? I promise you, I promise you anything. I’ve already promised you just now, I won’t go back on my word. ”

Yang Qi wiped the tears in my eyes with one hand as he consoled me. The generals who had led troops to war and beheaded countless enemy troops were now flustered by my crying, as if my tears were the enemy he would never be able to overcome.

My goal was achieved, I didn’t expect that my few tears would be exchanged for Yang Liang’s change of heart. Thus, I saved myself a lot of talking, but in my heart, I just couldn’t feel happy. I always felt that something was stuck in my heart, stuffy and uncomfortable, with more and more tears, like a bead with a broken string:

“You don’t have to force it.” I choked back my sobs.

“No, lil ”er, I will not go back on my word. I said that for you, I will do anything.” Yang Liang looked at me with concern. His eyes were so clear and clear, but they were clearly filled with reluctance and grief.

I took a deep breath and held back my tears. Strange, I should have been happy, but why was my heart filled with sorrow for no reason?

“Fine, I’ll go back and tell Qingcheng. After you get married, I’ll go with you all to the Immortal Island as Qingcheng’s sworn sister.” I have already decided, if I want to avoid Yang Guang, I can only go to the Immortal Island.

I don’t know why, but when I thought of leaving this land and never coming back, my heart skipped a beat and I couldn’t help but look to the west. Even though I couldn’t see anything but the shadow of a dark mountain, but that direction is the direction of great excitement. In that palace made of gold and jade, there are my sons and daughters …

I turned around and pretended to be relaxed. I walked back to the small courtyard and didn’t look back, but I knew that Yang Liang was still standing there in the moonlight. Let him be.

Just as he entered, he saw Qingcheng standing at the doorway, her face filled with tears.

“You?” I was surprised. Could it be that she had heard all of my conversation with Yang Liang?

Qingcheng nodded as she sobbed:

“Big sister Xiao, I heard everything. You shouldn’t have made things difficult for him like this. He suffered too much. He clearly has a lover right in front of him, yet he wants to marry her. This is too cruel for him.”

Qingcheng sobbed silently, but I knew that in her heart, she should be the one feeling the most pain.

“Sometimes, cruelty is also a type of salvation, and that’s the only way he’ll wake up. “Qingcheng, don’t worry. He will definitely be a good husband. A woman like you, even if I see her, I will still pity her. There will definitely be a day when he will understand your thoughts.” I slightly closed my eyes, not looking at Qingcheng as I spoke.

“NO!” Big Sister Xiao, you won’t understand. This kind of clarity will make people feel unbearable pain. You shouldn’t have done this, Big Sister Xiao. ” Qingcheng cried like the rain, her eyes red and swollen like she had been crying for a long time.

“But, my good sister, if I don’t do this, what will you do? Are you going to spend the rest of your life like this until you die of old age? ” My heart ached for Qingcheng’s little face, using a handkerchief to wipe away her tears. However, just as I wiped them away, there were even more new tears gushing out.

“Big sister Xiao, I’m the same as Young Master Yang. I’m satisfied with just seeing him every day. Big sister Xiao, why do I feel like the most unconscious person right now is you?” Qingcheng’s teary eyes looked at me with a hint of suspicion.

No, how could I not wake up? I was the clearest of the four. Qingcheng just doesn’t know who I am.

No, how could I not wake up? I was the clearest of the four. Qingcheng just doesn’t know who I am.

I subconsciously rejected Qingcheng’s words to ease my mood and lightly said:

“Qingcheng, there’s not much time left. Go back and prepare for the wedding.”

Then, without looking at her, I turned and walked west.

Qingcheng did not follow me in, but instead walked towards Yang Liang who was outside the courtyard. Through the window, I could vaguely see her back that was trembling from crying, but I couldn’t hear what they said, I only knew that the two of them talked for a long time, as if they had reached an agreement. Yang Liang followed Qingcheng back to the house, but their expressions did not change much.

Perhaps Yang Liang had changed his mind, after all, Qingcheng was a rare and good woman.

The next day, Yang Liang learned that the ship would be heading to the Immortal Island again three days later to deliver some goods that weren’t on the island. Firstly, he thanked the local villagers for their hospitality, and secondly, there were many young men who were out of curiosity and prepared to go over to take a look.

Because of the distance from the land, the owner of the boat was able to collect a lot of money. Fortunately, I had a lot of silver notes with me, so it wasn’t difficult for me.

It’s just that, as the time for my departure approached, I decided to first settle the matter of Qingcheng and Yang Liang’s marriage, so as to not cause too much trouble and to not regret everything when I go to the Immortal Island.

Thus, Mo Qingcheng and I hastily prepared to marry each other. We prepared to use the day before the ship sailed as the wedding date for both of us.

“Qingcheng, the marriage ceremony is so hurried, I have to trouble you.” I said.

Qingcheng smiled as she shook her head, “Qingcheng doesn’t care about formalities, it’s fine as long as she follows Young Master Yang.”

A sensible girl. I sighed in my heart. Yang Liang should be lucky to have a wife like that.

After knowing that the two of them were going to get married, Lin Feng left in a fit of anger. He no longer lived with us but stayed in an inn. However, I also heard that he was very curious about the matter of the Immortal Island.

Although he is still a child, but after so many years of wandering in the martial arts world, I expect he can take care of himself, so we didn’t care too much about him and just let him go.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the wedding day. Although tomorrow would be forever leaving this place, we still had to change our wedding dress. Qingcheng had sewed a wedding dress for Yang Liang that night, and I had also made a wedding dress for Qingcheng with my own hands.

And so, without parents, without friends, without even a firecracker, the two of them worshipped the heavens and the earth under my leadership.

Fortunately, the new house was brimming with joy, so it was not overly desolate.
