Many years ago.
After Qi Zhen Emperor ascended the throne, Jing Rong was placed outside the palace because of his mother's mistake. He could only enter the palace on certain days.
When she was young, Jing Xuan loved to run behind him.
Unfortunately, they couldn't see each other often.
Jing Rong told her that if she wanted to see him, she should fly a kite on the day he entered the palace. If she saw him, he would go and find her.
Therefore, whenever it was time for Jing Rong to enter the palace, Jing Xuan would fly a kite in front of her bedroom.
As long as Jing Rong saw it, he would definitely look for her.
When he saw the white kite hovering above the Third Prince, he knew that Jing Xuan was looking for him.
Ever since their last meeting, Na Tuo had increased the number of guards and patrols due to the assassination attempt on his residence. As a result, he hadn't received any news from Jing Xuan.
Ji Yunshu also alighted from the carriage.
He looked up and saw the white kite.
Facing the snowflakes, it was especially eye-catching under the ink-black sky!
At that moment, she understood.
"It's Jing Xuan."
Jing Rong nodded and said to her, "Get in the carriage first. I'll be back soon."
Ji Yunshu pulled his hand. "I'll go with you."
"Yunshu …"
"I know it's not convenient, but I want to see her."
But I want to see her.
These six words were filled with longing and heartache.
After a moment of hesitation, Jing Rong agreed.
The guards were waiting on the spot, ready to provide support at any time.
Because the Third Prince was holding a banquet tonight, the security was very tight.
In addition, there were assassins in the Prince's Mansion, so there were many more guards patrolling the mansion.
Jing Rong found an opportunity to leap over the wall with Ji Yunshu.
At this moment …
Jing Xuan's face was pale and tense.
He was also very nervous.
He was flying a kite in his yard.
That pair of haggard eyes stared at the white kite that appeared especially translucent under the moonlight.
It was obviously very cold and snowflakes were floating around, but her palms were sweaty.
The maidservants standing at the side did not know what was going on and could only stare blankly in the snow.
After waiting for a while, they began to whisper to each other.
"Do you think Princess Consort is confused from her illness? Why did you suddenly want to fly a kite? And it's late at night. "
"I'm afraid he's really confused!"
"It's fine if you want to fly a kite, but why do you have to fly a white kite? How inauspicious! "
"Exactly."
"Should we inform His Highness? In case something happens later. "
Immediately, someone stopped her and said, "You must not go. I just came from His Highness's place. Just now, there were assassins at the banquet and they almost killed two of His Highness's guests."
"Ah? And then? "
"Fortunately, he's fine. However, His Highness got angry and even killed the assassin."
A maid sighed, "Then it's better not to go. If His Highness isn't happy, he might behead me as well."
The three maidservants chattered non-stop.
Jing Xuan didn't hear him at all. After flying the kite for a while, she thought that if Jing Rong saw her, he would definitely come over. However, there were still several maidservants watching her, so she had to think of a way to send them away.
He thought for a while.
He didn't even turn his head as he instructed, "Cailian, Dong 'er, I'm a little hungry. Please instruct the kitchen to prepare something to warm my stomach."
The princess had been sick for a whole day, but she didn't take any medicine!
Now that they heard that Jing Xuan was willing to eat, of course they couldn't be happy and quickly complied.
Jing Xuan ordered again, "Li 'er, I'm not feeling well. I want to take a bath. Help me prepare some hot water."
"Yes."
The three maidservants were sent away one by one.
Who would have thought that the usually well-behaved Third Princess had another purpose?
After seeing them leave, Jing Xuan quickly put away the white kite.
She wrapped a thick cloak around her body and hurriedly left the courtyard.
There were guards patrolling everywhere in the Prince's Mansion.
She quietly avoided them and went around a corridor. She planned to wait for Jing Rong at the place closest to the back door.
Just as she avoided a group of guards and passed through the corridor, someone suddenly grabbed her hand from behind. Before she could react, she had already been pulled into a room on the side.
It was a library, and it was filled with neatly arranged bookshelves!
"Ugh …"
She instinctively struggled a few times.
Until the door was closed, she heard a familiar voice. "Xuan 'er, it's me."
Her eyes suddenly reddened.
She turned to look at Jing Rong.
"Imperial Brother."
"It's me." Jing Rong looked at his sister's pale face with heartache.
The room was very dark. Only a faint light penetrated through.
She could see clearly when she was close.
Jing Rong asked, "Are you sick? You don't look well. "
"I'm fine!"
Ji Yunshu walked out from the side and softly called out, "Jing Xuan."
Ah!
Jing Xuan glanced over and saw the slender and delicate 'scholar' beside her.
"Yunshu." She was very excited and immediately grabbed her hand. "I knew you would come."
Ji Yunshu smiled.
Ji Yunshu worriedly asked, "Let me see your hand. Is it better?"
"My hand is fine now." She pulled her hand back a little.
Ji Yunshu said, "Jing Xuan, no matter what, you must take good care of your body."
"I will. I promised my imperial brother that I won't do stupid things again." She glanced at Jing Rong.
Ji Yunshu sighed, "In fact, I should have come to see you a long time ago, but I don't know martial arts. I was afraid that I would be a burden to Jing Rong. Tonight, I saw you flying a kite, so I asked him to bring me here." "After all, it's too dangerous here. I also took a big risk to come see you." She choked with sobs, "I know this will bring trouble, but when I heard that you came to the Third Prince's residence tonight, I couldn't care less. Yunshu, I just hope that I can live again.
Yunshu, I just hope that I can see you again. If it wasn't for the words you said before I got married, I don't know how I would have survived until now. "
"You've suffered!"
Jing Xuan shook her head, "How can my suffering compare to yours? I've heard everything that happened in Great Lin. "
The so-called 'together' was Ji Yunshu's pain.
It was the pain she buried deep in her heart.
It was as if tens of thousands of ants were biting her heart, but there was nowhere to scratch.
She held Jing Xuan's cold hand and said, "Everything is in the past." "Yes, everything is in the past." Jing Xuan smiled again. She turned and held Jing Rong's hand, placing Ji Yunshu's hand in his. Her eyes were full of blessings, "Imperial Brother, Yunshu, no matter what, you've finally come together. This is what I want to see the most in this world. I only hope that you will.
