Li Bai left with two jars of wine newly bought from the mountain.
At the same time, he felt that Bai Yuxian might not have time to drink with him during the next period of time in Wangwushan, so he decided to find a drinking buddy again.
After Li Bai left, Li Mi, who was hugged by Bai Yuxian from behind on the rooftop, breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he looked at the sunset that was almost completely setting on the horizon and turned around.
"It's getting late. Let's go back. I feel a little tired today."
The most important thing is that she is worried that someone will come and see her and Bai Yuxian like this. After all, there is a high possibility that someone will come to the Temple of Heaven in Wangwushan on weekdays.
"good."
Bai Yuxian whispered softly, and then she and Li Mi returned to the True Source Palace.
"Princess."
Returning to the True Source Palace, the maids Li Mi brought with her, Rong Rong and Yu Qing, also greeted her immediately.
The original guardsmen such as Li You were temporarily stationed at the foot of Wangwu Mountain.
"Mr. Bai."
Aunt Rong and Yu Qing first saluted Li Mi, and then saluted Bai Yuxian. Their expressions were still as respectful as usual, and no one could see anything unusual.
Bai Yuxian also smiled and bowed to the two of them, then said to Li Mi.
"Your Highness, Princess, is very tired today. She should rest early and Yuxian will not stay to disturb you. She will come back tomorrow."
Li Mi nodded when she heard this and did not hold back.
But that night, Li Mi was completely insomniac. After she calmed down after separating from Bai Yuxian, Li Mi suddenly couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in her heart.
Because after calming down, Li Mi understood that what she said was that she was with Bai Yuxian to help her practice and sharpen her Taoist heart. This was actually just an excuse she made for herself.
And Bai Yuxian, whatever he said to help him practice, was just an excuse to get close to him.
Li Mi actually knew all this in her heart, but she chose to pretend to be confused.
It's not that she doesn't know this, she just chooses to pretend to be confused, because deep down in her heart, she longs to be with Bai Yuxian like this, especially the feeling of being with Bai Yuxian during the day. Her own feelings are a lie. Not your own.
Even if she did some intimate and transgressive actions with Bai Yuxian, she chose to give in half or even acquiesce, because she didn't reject it in her heart, and she was even a little happy.
But these things made Li Mi a little scared after she calmed down.
Because she thought about the age gap between herself and Bai Yuxian and her resolute performance when she became a monk.
Back then, she didn't want to get married, so she resolutely chose to become a monk, and even forced her royal brother to do so by automatically stripping off her title.
As a result, now, she fell in love with Bai Yuxian. If word spread, how would the world and her reigning brother view her?
And the most important thing is that in terms of age and seniority, Bai Yuxian is only nineteen years old now and is even a few months shy of twenty years old. However, her grade is already over thirty, according to her age and seniority. , she can completely become Bai Yuxian's elder and Bai Yuxian's mother, and their peers call each other sisters.
Under such circumstances, if word spread that she and Bai Yuxian were together, how would the world view them?
After all, people's words are scary.
Especially if her reigning brother is angry because of this, she doesn't worry about punishing herself, but she is worried that it will implicate Bai Yuxian and make her reigning brother feel bad about Bai Yuxian. It's what worries her the most.
Bai Yuxian on the other side had a good sleep that night after returning to his residence. Before going to bed, he and Li Bai had a hearty meal.
Li Bai not only bought several jars of fine wine from the mountain, but also brought back two roasted suckling pigs.
The two of them ate and drank until midnight.
As for Bai Yuxian's operation today, Li Bai also admired him deeply.
I simply cannot accept it.
He just wanted to use Princess Yuzhen to help promote officials, but Bai Yuxian directly killed them all.
However, Li Bai also knew that he could not learn what Bai Yuxian did, and perhaps no one in the world could learn from it except Bai Yuxian himself.
Because there is only one White Jade Immortal in this world.
——
"Mr. Bai, Her Royal Highness the Princess said she feels a little unwell today and will not go out."
The next day, after getting up early and finishing morning exercises, after taking a shower and changing clothes, Bai Yuxian took the initiative to come to Li Mi, but was rejected.
Li Mi said she felt uncomfortable.
However, Bai Yuxian knew in her heart that it was a lie that Li Mi was not feeling well, and that it was true that the defensive line in her heart had not completely passed.
He didn't care in his heart, he even had second-hand preparations, and said with a smile when he heard the words.
"Perhaps it was the princess who was tired after walking for a long time yesterday, and it is also Yuxian's fault. It happened that Yuxian wrote a poem after returning yesterday, and was planning to come over and give it to Her Royal Highness today, so I bothered Grandma and Miss Yuqing to help deliver it. Give it to the princess as a gift of apology from the Jade Immortal."
Bai Yuxian took out the poem he had written on the red paper last night and handed it to Aunt Rong and Yu Qing.
"good."
"Now we have Grandma Lao and Miss Yuqing. Yuxian takes his leave."
After saying that, Bai Yuxian turned and left.
After Bai Yuxian left, Grandma Rong and Yu Qing also entered the house with the red note given by Bai Yuxian and handed it to Li Mi.
Li Mi was full of complicated and entangled thoughts, hesitating whether to open it, because after a night of insomnia last night, she felt that if she really wanted to be with Bai Yuxian, it might not be a good choice for herself or Bai Yuxian.
But at this moment, I looked at the red paper sent by Bai Yuxian.
Forget it, take a look, just take a look.
In the end, Li Mi couldn't help but took the red paper and opened it. When she saw it, the handwriting looked like a dragon, and the strokes of the pen were like silver hooks and iron paintings, and she suddenly saw the writing on it.
[A glimpse of surprise and a touch of anger, it is suspected that a fairy has fallen into the mortal world; a branch of peach blossom brings rain in spring, even if it is ruthless, it is touching]
ah-
Li Mi couldn't help but lightly cover her chest with her jade-white hands, feeling as if her heart had been hit by something again.
I almost had the urge to run out and chase Bai Yuxian back, but in the end I held it back, warning myself secretly.
No way.
A few days later, Li Mi still said she had not seen Bai Yuxian.
Bai Yuxian was not in a hurry, and came on time every morning to send Li Mi a small message on a red note.
On the second day, Bai Yuxian wrote on the red paper - Looking at the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk, I miss you when I walk and miss you when I sit.
On the third day, Bai Yuxian wrote on the red paper - May I be like the stars and the moon, and the light will shine brightly every night.
On the fourth day, Bai Yuxian wrote on the red paper - I only hope that your heart will be like mine, and you will live up to your love. The small words on the red paper said everything in my heart.
On the fifth day, Bai Yuxian wrote on Hongjian Mountain - I wish to be a winged bird in the sky, and a twig on the ground.
On the sixth day, Bai Yuxian wrote on the red paper again - Linglong Dice An Hongdou, I miss you deeply.
After six consecutive days like this, Yu Qing, who was responsible for delivering notes to Bai Yuxian every day, could not help but see red eyes.
Especially when she looked at the sentences on the red paper sent by Bai Yuxian every day, she thought about why the princess's heart was so hard. Mr. Bai was so devoted that her heart could not help but melt prematurely.
If it were her own words, Yu Qing felt that she might not even be able to handle the first sentence on the first day.
But what Yuqing doesn't know is that at this moment, Li Mi's heart is really as strong as it appears on the surface. She is just holding on, and her heart has already reached the edge of collapse.
Then another night passed.
Wait until the morning of the seventh day.
But Bai Yuxian did not come today, uncharacteristically, and was not even seen until noon.
At this moment, Li Mi suddenly couldn't help but panic, and couldn't help asking proactively.
"Master Bai, haven't you come yet today?"
"Nope."
Li Mi suppressed her panic and waited for more than an hour, but Bai Yuxian still didn't show up.
The panic in my heart could no longer be completely suppressed, and I began to worry whether I was sad because I had not seen Bai Yuxian for so many days, and whether I had completely hurt Bai Yuxian.
"Go to Mr. Bai's residence and tell him that I want to go out for a walk today."
Li Mi finally couldn't bear it anymore and looked at the maid Yu Qing and said.
"yes."
Yuqing left quickly, but a moment later she ran back in a panic and told Li Mi.
Bai Yuxian was not at his residence, and when he met Li Bai, he asked that Bai Yuxian had gone out last night and did not know where to go and never showed up.
"What!"
This time, Li Mi couldn't sit still at all. She stood up and walked towards the door to find Bai Yuxian. An uncontrollable fear and uneasiness suddenly emerged in her heart. It felt like her heart was suddenly shaken. It was as if something extremely important had passed away in an instant.
Just then: "Your Highness, Mr. Bai is here." Aunt Rong quickly ran in with joyful steps to report.
"Jade Immortal!"
Li Mi was instantly overjoyed and ran to the door in three steps at a time. She suddenly saw the white jade immortal who was dressed in white and was as handsome as jade.
"Jade Immortal has met Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Seeing Li Mi, Bai Yuxian was still smiling as usual, gentle as jade, and courteous as a gentleman.
"You, where have you been?" Li Mi breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but ask.
"Last night I couldn't sleep because of lovesickness. I remembered the scene when I first met Her Royal Highness the Princess in Peach Blossom Valley a few days ago. I couldn't help but go to Peach Blossom Valley overnight. I saw the peach blossoms withered. I felt uncomfortable for a while, so I sat there for a while. Stay.”
"Have the peach blossoms withered?" Li Mi's heart trembled when she heard this, and she didn't know why.
"Most of it has withered, but remembering the scene when I met the princess in Peach Blossom Valley that day, I drew another painting and was planning to come over and give it to the princess."
As he said this, Bai Yuxian took out a rolled scroll and handed it to Li Mi.
"What painting?"
Li Mi reached out and took it, but the moment she opened it, she couldn't take her eyes away.
In the picture scroll, thousands of peach blossoms are in full bloom in the peach blossom forest, and there are colorful fallen flowers. And she is standing in the peach blossom forest, smiling like a flower, lifelike.
Is this what your smile looks like?
The peach blossoms on the human face complement each other in red.
Li Mi looked a little dumbfounded. She had never thought that her smile could be so beautiful, and she clearly remembered that she had not smiled that day.
Or rather, this is what Bai Yuxian looks like when he smiles.
In addition, a poem was written next to the scroll.
[Ten miles of peach blossoms fill the sky with flowers, every inch of green silk hair worries about the past years. Looking at the moon to protect each other, I only envy the mandarin ducks but not the immortals. 】
I only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals.
Seeing this last sentence, Li Mi finally couldn't help but muster the courage to look at Bai Yuxian and make up her mind.
do not care.
I, Li Mi, am determined to make a decision about this man, and no one can stop me.
Bai Yuxian, I want to help me practice!
