Our best friends are actually only ourselves.
******
Zhao Qingsong gently wiped away Zhu Miaoying's tears and comforted her softly: "You are not alone. Don't you still have me as your best friend?"
Zhu Miaoying cried louder and burst into tears: "But~ but you disappeared suddenly! I don't know where you went? I don't know where to look for you? Uh-huh~ Uh-huh, I'm alone. Hungry and cold, in this dirty shabby house, no matter whether I cry or laugh, no one will pay attention to me, no one will care about me, no one will remember me, I think ~Actually, there is no difference between me being alive and being dead. It’s better for me to be dead…”
Zhao Qingsong felt pity in his heart. He gently held her in his arms and patted her back gently, with thoughts in his heart fluctuating.
He had experienced this feeling of despair and powerlessness against reality countless times when he was a child, but he was born with a strong character and extremely smart, so he broke through this knot easily!
Zhu Miaoying was obviously naive and stupid. She was still unable to get rid of the depression in her heart, and in despair she had the idea of death!
Moreover, she has been in such a chilling and depressing environment in the palace, so the despair in her heart is naturally getting stronger and stronger!
"How could it be? Don't be stupid. People can only feel when they are alive. If they die, they will know nothing! The things in the underworld after death are illusory and unpredictable at all. If you rashly Wouldn't it be extremely bad to seek death and still not be able to see your parents after death?" Zhao Qingsong gave up Zhu Miaoying's idea of committing suicide with just one sentence.
"We all have to work hard to live. Only when we are alive can we have hope. Miaoying, I have been thinking of a way to get you out of here. If we leave the palace and the capital, we will be free. You will never have such a problem again. It’s such a worry, you know? The world outside the palace is colorful and colorful, and it is very different from the inside of the palace. You have never seen it before, right?"
Zhu Miaoying was startled, her eyes brightened for a moment, then dimmed, she lowered her head and sobbed: "No, no, no, you don't have to lie to me, I can never leave here! If you take me halfway away, If others find out, you will be executed by Lingchi. I don’t want you to die, you must not die!”
Zhao Qingsong felt worried and scared when he heard her tone, but she obviously cared more about her own safety than herself, and a kind of warmth that she had never felt before arose in her heart.
He said softly: "Neither of us will die, both of us will live!"
"No! I'm afraid! I'm afraid!"
"What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid that when I wake up tomorrow, you'll never be seen again! I'm afraid that I'll never find you again! I'm afraid that this is all just a dream! I want to give you my body now , that way, even if I never see you again, you will always remember me in your heart, even if you only remember me occasionally, I will be satisfied!" Zhu Miaoying said firmly and shyly.
"How could it be? You don't have to be afraid! We are 'best friends' and I will never forget you?" Only then did Zhao Qingsong understand Zhu Miaoying's friendship for him. He didn't expect that in such a short time together, Zhu Miaoying would be like this. Cherishing this so-called 'best friend', I couldn't help but feel hot in my eyes and almost shed tears.
"No! No! No!" Her expression was stubborn and persistent: "Since I can remember, I have felt that I am a superfluous person in this world. No one will remember that a person like me existed in the world. I think , we become a real couple, you become my husband, and I become your wife, even if it is just for one night, it is great! In this way, everything now is really my big dream. It is also a very sweet dream! Even if I, Zhu Miaoying, die tomorrow, I will die contentedly and willingly!"
Zhao Qingsong blinked his eyes, and gently smeared Zhu Miaoying's extremely soft face with his fingertips, with tenderness in his eyes: "Miaoying, I understand everything about you! But - I don't think we should just Be a romantic couple for one night. We will be a pair of long-lasting lovers. We will stay together day and night. We will stay together until our hair turns white. We will stay together forever. , until we both grow old and die, okay?"
Zhu Miaoying was fascinated by what Zhao Qingsong said and murmured: "But, how is that possible?"
Zhao Qingsong nodded vigorously: "I think that day will not be too far away. That day will come soon. Miaoying, do you believe me?"
"I...I...I believe you..." Zhu Miaoying looked up at Zhao Qingsong blankly and throbbingly. She felt a sense of peace and intoxication that she had never experienced in her heart.
No need for fine wine, she was already drunk.
Zhao Qingsong paused and continued: "A good life is always worth waiting for. I think that by then, you will put on the phoenix crown and harem, and I will marry you in an eight-carat sedan chair. In this way, I will marry you as a matchmaker, and then we will Do you agree that the two of us can be a long-lasting couple in an honest and upright manner?"
Zhu Miaoying was shocked!
She had never thought of such a thing, and she had never thought that she would also have such a day. This was something that she could not imagine even if she thought about it!
Fengguanxiapei?
Eight carriages?
The media is getting married?
Although she doesn't quite understand what these things mean, and she has never seen these things, it is obvious that for girls, these things will be precious things that will always be remembered in their hearts!
What woman doesn’t yearn for such wonderful and beautiful things?
Zhu Miaoying asked timidly: "Then...those...those things are really possible?"
Zhao Qingsong slowly took Zhu Miaoying off his body, let her sit on the bed, and said with a smile: "Believe me! I can do it!"
He knew that although the words 'trust me' were spoken lightly and were only three words long, they contained extremely heavy pressure and an extremely dangerous process.
If this matter can be successful, then the two of them can live together and fly together forever.
If they fail, what awaits the two of them will be destruction and their bodies will be shattered into pieces!
Hundreds of thoughts ran through Zhao Qingsong's mind in an instant, all of which were plans on how to deceive the various guards in the palace and escape from the capital with Zhu Miaoying!
It's a pity that these plans seem to have huge flaws of one kind or another!
What he wants is a perfect plan, so perfect that even after the two escape from the capital, no one will notice their traces, and no one will want to track down their whereabouts!
A bright light suddenly flashed in Zhao Qingsong's mind. In fact, he thought about this matter too complicatedly. An official girl went out to purchase things in the palace and accidentally died outside the palace due to an accident. This matter had another What's so strange?
There is no difficulty at all!
This matter is extremely difficult to say and very simple to say. He just needs an opportunity and a few people who can cooperate to make it happen!
When the time comes, Zhu Miaoying leaves the palace as a palace maid out for shopping, and then reports back to the eunuch in charge of the matter, saying that the palace maid accidentally died outside the palace. When the Jinyi Guards send someone to verify, they will get a fake body to wear. Just pretend to be a palace maid, and you're done!
The golden cicada sheds its shell, and God doesn't know it, and the ghost doesn't know it.
Although this plan is not very clever, Zhu Miaoying's current identity is just an ordinary official girl.
——People of low status will not attract attention and it is best to hide themselves.
After Zhu Miaoying's matter is settled, he will spend some more money to find a way to take off Jin Yiwei's skin and call it a day.
If it's really hard to escape, then you can fake your own death and escape like a cicada, and the matter will be completely over!
After a very short period of thinking, Zhao Qingsong had come up with a relatively crude and simple plan.
Zhao Qingsong knew that he would have to carefully consider every link next. If there were no mistakes in every step, things would be done quickly.
Thinking that he and Zhu Miaoying would be married by then, he couldn't help but feel relieved and chuckled happily!
Zhu Miaoying had no idea that in just a moment, Zhao Qingsong had already filled up his mind with dozens of wonderful dramas. He asked a little strangely: "Looking for... looking for... looking for Young Master Qing Qing, what's the matter? Did something happen?"
Zhao Qingsong was just thinking about the situation when the two of them entered the bridal chamber. When Zhu Miaoying asked him this question, he thought that his thoughts were revealed. He couldn't help but feel embarrassed. He coughed lightly to cover up and said: "No...it's nothing. Let's go to the roof." Let’s eat moon cakes while admiring the moon.”
………………
The moon crescents over Kyushu,
Some are happy and some are sad?
How many couples share a tent?
How many are scattered in other states?
How many are living on the streets?
The moon on August 15th is exceptionally bright.
The mooncakes on August 15th are also particularly sweet.
Under the cold moonlight, sitting on the ridge of the roof covered with glazed tiles, Zhao Qingsong saw Zhu Miaoying clearly for the first time.
I saw her round face, small nose, and big eyes, sometimes showing a pitiful expression, sometimes showing a trace of innocence, and a pair of small cherry lips as delicate as petals, which gave the whole face It adds a bit of cuteness.
Zhu Miaoying seemed to have discovered a new world. She stared at Zhao Qingsong for a long time and exclaimed without blinking: "Hey! Are you so handsome? No man I have ever seen can be as beautiful as you!" Um……"
She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then continued: "Not even women are as beautiful as you!"
Zhao Qingsong almost spat out a mouthful of mooncake, rolled his eyes and said, "Are you calling me a sissy? Be careful if I get angry and deal with you!"
Zhu Miaoying's eyes widened even more, and she asked in a timid tone: "How are you going to deal with me? Do you want to beat me? Don't beat me up, you can spank me..."
Zhao Qingsong saw her extremely frightened expression, and it was obvious that she was spanked frequently. He couldn't help but feel sour in his heart. He recalled the bitter situation of being spanked when he was an apprentice when he was a child. He forced a smile and said: "Humph! No! It’s so cheap! Try this from me!”
He reached out to tickle her.
Zhu Miaoying was afraid of being tickled the most, so she couldn't help but giggle, and then she exclaimed, unable to sit still anymore, and slid down the tiles on the roof!
Zhao Qingsong, with quick eyes and quick hands, reached out and pulled her back.
Zhu Miaoying curled her lips and said angrily: "It's all because of your fooling around that the mooncake I just took a bite of fell! Please help me pick it up from the ground. That piece of cake is still edible."
Zhao Qingsong looked around hurriedly and saw nothing unusual. He said with a smile: "Okay! There are plenty of mooncakes, so be careful. I don't want the dirty mooncake, otherwise it will ruin your stomach!"
As he spoke, he took a mooncake filled with persimmon filling from the package and handed it to her.
Zhu Miaoying took the moon cake, was stunned for a long time, and asked: "I have never left the palace since I can remember. I heard you say many things about Guanwai, and I felt a little scared. Guanwai is Isn’t it scary? Will a lot of people spank me?”
Zhao Qingsong saw her shoulders shaking slightly. Is it because she was cold or scared?
He stretched out his hand and gently hugged her into his arms, comforting her: "Don't be afraid! I am responsible for everything! I will protect you, because we will always be 'best friends'!"
