Chapter 107 Tired Bird Returns to the Forest
Chapter 107 Tired Bird Returns to the Forest
The first thing Ji Bieyun did after leaving the palace was to take the knife from Guan Chen, throw it at the gate of the imperial city, and then walked towards the carriage without saying a word.
Thinking about it now, every time he was summoned, nothing good happened.Anger and disappointment accumulated over and over again, and finally broke out. If Guan Chen hadn't come in just now, maybe he would have really drawn his sword and killed Emperor Yuan Hui.
Dog thing, family dog thing.
In the name of serving the country and the community, everything you do is contrary to the people's livelihood and people's aspirations. In the end, you have to put on a shell of serving the country and the people.
Guan Chen let go of his hand after leaving Wenying Hall, and followed him silently without disturbing him.It wasn't until they saw the carriage that Guan Chen asked, "Are you angry at me for hiding the fact that the late emperor knew the truth?"
Ji Bieyun's mind was muddled, and after a moment of reaction, he replied: "No, you have your own reasons for hiding it from me, but you are just afraid that I will collapse, just like what happened just now."
"That's not a good time to do something." The monk said softly behind him, "Even if you can escape from Miyagi unharmed, you will not be able to escape the persecution of someone with a heart, and you will not be able to personally reverse the case for the Liu family in the future."
He finally slowed down, took a deep breath and managed to calm down.
"I'm sorry... Fortunately, Xu Yang has already found the clues, so he doesn't need to rely on Emperor Yuanhui to uphold justice. Fortunately, you stopped me." He no longer knew what he was talking about. I feel that the monk is too calm, as if he has already made up his mind about something.
The back of the neck was gently held by the monk's hand, and he squeezed it, as if to relax him.Guan Chen's reassuring voice sounded beside him: "Don't talk about worrying things today, after you have a good rest, what should come will always come."
Ji Bieyun turned his head suddenly, and asked with some anxiety: "What about you? Where are you going?"
The monk put down his hand, intentionally or unintentionally, his fingertips slipped across a new wound, which made him tremble slightly.
"With you, of course."
A group of people returned to the Ji residence in silence.
Xu Yang doesn't need to ask, just by looking at his expression and atmosphere, he can guess whether something good has happened... Even though he risked his life to win the battle, Ji Bieyun still looked uncomfortable in the end, how can he still see the high-spirited horse riding around the street? shadow.
He has been with Prince Xian for many years, so he naturally understands the dangers of the officialdom, but now he really realizes that the court can destroy people more than years.
After returning to Ji's residence, he had the foresight to not follow Ji Bieyun and Guanchen to the north, but accidentally caught a glimpse of a shocking scene when he left.
The moment the two of them were about to turn behind the wall, he saw Ji Bieyun stretch out his hand quietly, grabbing Master Guanchen's sleeve.It was obviously not an action that was too out of bounds, but he just saw a strong feeling of dependence, and his mind was instantly shaken unconscious.
It's one thing to vaguely know that these two are having an affair, but quite another to actually see it.He has never seen Ji Bieyun rely on anyone, and he has never revealed it to Master Guanchen in front of everyone on weekdays, so it turned out that it was like this in private...
Xu Yang stood there in a daze for a long time, and he shook his head and left only when the two had already left.
After much deliberation, Guan Chen should be the most suitable person for Ji Bieyun.With a kind of selfishness similar to that of his mother's family, even if these two people are not tolerated by the world, he hopes that they can go further.
At this end, Ji Bieyun grabbed Guan Chen's sleeve and did not let go, following the monk like a little tail.He didn't speak, but exerted force with his hands, as if he was afraid that the monk would leave, and even the sound of his footsteps seemed aggrieved.
After walking to the North Wing, Guanchen stopped in the corridor, turned around and looked down at him.
"Still unhappy?"
He had a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start and couldn't open his mouth, so he remained awkwardly silent.
"Is it because of Emperor Yuan Hui that you are unhappy?" Guan Chen asked again.
Not quite.Ji Bieyun was troubled by so many troubles that he could barely count them, not only Emperor Yuanhui and the Liu family, but also the reunion after a long absence, the war, the people outside the customs, and the "love" that he didn't understand for the time being.
His head hurts.
After struggling for a long time, Ji Bieyun met Guanchen's gaze, and finally said: "The Quehan knife was almost not cleaned, it was stained with too much blood."
The monk looked very natural, "Then change it? I know a swordsmith, and I can ask him to make you a better knife quietly."
"No." He immediately vetoed it.
"Then what do you want?"
The question was thrown to Ji Bieyun again, he held Guanchen's sleeve tightly, and said after all the hard work, "You hug me."
He didn't dare to look at the other person's eyes, and waited for a while before he could answer, thinking for a moment that his request was too much.But after thinking about it, I feel unconvinced. They have come so far, so what if they hug each other.
Without giving up, Ji Bieyun lowered his head and repeated: "When I was injured on the battlefield, I really wanted you to hug me, and thinking about it made me feel stronger again."
The next moment, he was gently hugged into an embrace.Guan Chen avoids his shoulders and puts one hand on the back of his head, while the other gently wraps his arms around his waist, as if afraid of touching the wound.
Ji Bieyun was forced to lean closer, and after feeling the familiar temperature and fragrance enveloping him, he sighed softly.
The so-called tired bird returning to its nest is nothing more than that, he seems to have returned to the place where he should be.
He closed his eyes in Guanchen's arms, and murmured: "I don't want to work hard anymore, is the master still short of disciples? The courtyard fetches water for cooking, and by the way, it can also warm the master’s bed, isn’t this a good deal?”
The hand on his head was not honest, stroking his hair once and for all.
Guan Chen whispered: "You can be accepted as a closed disciple."
He laughed, "Closed the door before it opened?"
"I have neither wisdom nor attainment in Buddhism," said the monk, "it's enough to harm you alone."
Without warning, Guan Chen hugged him horizontally, startled him, and opened his eyes to meet the downcast gaze of the monk.
"It's windy here, go back to your room and sleep again." Guan Chen explained.
Ji Bieyun didn't resist, just relaxed in the monk's arms.Tiredness swept over his whole body and was slowly encroaching on his sanity. He tried not to close his eyes, and lazily said: "Why are you so good, Guan Chen... I kept having some new nightmares a while ago, dreaming You have gone to the Buddha statue, don't want me."
He heard a muffled laugh from the chest next to his ear, "Then why didn't you dream that you abandoned me?"
"How is it possible?" He retorted angrily, but seemed a little confused because of sleepiness, "I'm not a fool, even if the Buddha abandons you, I won't."
"Understood." Guan Chen replied softly.
"You don't know..." His thoughts are already very weak, and he can hardly resist the drowsiness. "The future of Xuanqing Temple depends on you alone. It will be difficult to separate from the Ming family, right? I know you are struggling... If you need me Help, don’t say anything, I can help you too... You smashed the Treasure Pavilion for you, threw that treasure into Xuexiao Lake, tied it to a stone and sank to the bottom... I will help you..."
Ji Bieyun babbled, and vaguely heard Guan Chen answering "Yes", after that he was put on the bed and covered with a quilt.Subconsciously, he was afraid that Guanchen would leave, so he closed his eyes and stretched out his hand to grab it randomly twice, and finally he was actively held by a strong hand.
Guan Chen said softly: "I am here, go to sleep."
He was still worried, holding the other's hand and refusing to let go, but his body and mind, which had been holding on for many days, couldn't resist the temptation of sleepiness, and gradually pulled him into the darkness.
