Forced love, an inescapable fate

Chapter 120 If there is no, then there will be no repeat.

After several days of gloomy weather, the weather finally cleared up today.

Many wintersweets of various colors were planted in the princess's mansion, and they were in full bloom at this time.

The Princess's Mansion, which had been dull and depressing for several days, finally had a hint of new color.

Xiao Tao noticed that Mu Qingli had been depressed these days, and she had seen her wiping tears behind her back several times. But before, she was clearly a very cheerful person, and she always smiled when she saw the servants in the mansion. She was not arrogant, and everyone in the mansion liked her very much.

In just a few days, his face, which had looked slightly round before, had become obviously much thinner, with a sickly paleness and a look of sadness between his brows.

And Xiaotao always felt that she seemed very sad, as if someone had broken her heart.

It's like an originally bright and beautiful flower, but after just a few days, it wilts due to the wind and frost.

Although she didn't know what happened, Xiao Tao still liked this princess who never made things difficult for her servants and always smiled, and she hoped she could return to her previous state.

Xiao Tao is simple-minded and young, only fifteen years old this year, and has a clean background. This is why Jiang Ci placed her next to Mu Qingli at that time.

She had been serving Mu Qingli these days. When she went to the palace doctor to get medicine in the morning, she saw the wintersweets in full bloom in the yard and picked a few of them.

When he opened the door, he saw Mu Qingli still in a daze as usual, so he quietly put down the medicine bowl in his hand, then found a white porcelain vase and put the plum blossoms he had just picked in it.

After arranging the flowers, he handed the medicine to Mu Qingli.

"Princess, the medicine is ready. The temperature is just right now. Please drink it quickly."

Mu Qingli took the medicine from her hand and drank the black medicine without frowning.

Xiaotao handed her some clean water to rinse her mouth, but she just shook her head slightly.

"No need, Xiao Tao. I'm not miserable. I don't need anyone to wait on me. You can go down."

Xiaotao had no choice but to put down the cup in her hand.

She is now at the age where she can no longer keep things in her heart. She is not used to the depressing and dull atmosphere in the mansion these days. She has been holding it in for a few days. Seeing that Mu Qingli has been staying in the house every day, she finally spoke tentatively.

"Princess, the weather is fine today, and the wintersweets in the mansion are in full bloom. I just broke off a few branches when I went to get the medicine. Look, I put them in the vase. Isn't it beautiful? Why don't we go out for a walk in the mansion? I know you've been angry with Sister Wanyue these days, but princess, your health is more important. I'll take you out for a walk. Who knows, you might feel better and get better faster."

Mu Qingli looked in the direction Xiaotao pointed, and indeed saw the bright red wintersweet in the white porcelain vase, and was stunned.

"Sister, it seems like you like flowers very much? Does Sister have a favorite flower?"

I remember the day Jiang Ci left Sifang City three years ago. Before getting on the carriage, he asked himself seriously.

I remember that I told him without even thinking that his favorite blossom was the plum blossom.

When I was little, I planted a plum tree at my grandmother's house. Every winter vacation, I would go back to see the plum blossoms I had planted. Later, I became busy with school and gradually forgot about the plum tree. When I returned to my grandmother's house, the tree had died. I felt regretful for a long time. So when Jiang Ci asked, he answered without hesitation.

Now when I think about the past, it has only been three short years, but everything and everyone has changed.

Seeing her staring at the plum blossoms in the vase in a daze, Xiaotao couldn't help but speak again.

"Princess, let's go for a walk. There are many plum blossoms planted in your mansion. They are in full bloom now. They are so beautiful. This is the first time I have seen so many plum blossoms in my life."

Mu Qingli turned around and saw the expectation in Xiaotao's eyes. He couldn't bear to reject her kindness and finally agreed.

"Let's go out and take a look."

Xiao Tao's eyes immediately became bright, and she hurried to the closet to find a dress for Mu Qingli to wear, still muttering to herself.

"This one is too thin. It will be cold today. This one is quite thick, but the color is not pretty..."

Finally, Xiaotao's eyes fell on a white and red dress that she had just hung in the closet yesterday, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Mu Qingli looked at Xiaotao's back. The Xiaotao who was muttering at this time coincided with Wanyue in his memory.

At that time, Wanyue treated him so attentively. He originally thought that meeting Wanyue was fate, and that she was sincere to him. However, he never thought that everything was a script planned in advance.

Mu Qingli felt bitter in her heart. These days, all she dreamed about were the past events.

The heartache of being deceived and exploited is suffocating in dreams.

Everything is a lie, it's all fake.

She tried hard not to think about it all, but whether she opened her eyes or closed them, the past followed her like a nightmare, making her feel miserable and regretful.

These past few days she has been thinking, if she had been a little more ruthless and not stepped over that threshold, would everything that happened today not have happened.

If he had not chosen to escape that night and stayed safely in the Qi Palace, Feng Zong would have come to pick him up, and nothing would have happened in Dongli Town and Sifang City in the past five years.

If it weren't for these past events, I wouldn't have such heart-wrenching memories today.

Without these memories, I would be happier.

If I could do it again, I would not be as stupid as I was five years ago.

But there are no ifs in this world.

There is no if.

There will be no redo.

She stood up like a puppet and let Xiaotao change her clothes, her heart already broken.

After getting dressed, she went out with Xiaotao, but the moment she opened the door, she couldn't help but raise her hands to cover her eyes. She hadn't seen the sun for several days, and it seemed extremely dazzling.

At the tip of my nose I could smell a faint fragrance in the air. This fragrance was exactly the same as the fragrance of plum blossoms in my memory, only much stronger.

Although the sun was out, it was still very cold.

Under the stimulation of the cold, I felt that my mind, which had been in a daze for several days, finally became clearer.

After leaving the courtyard, she subconsciously looked towards the next yard where Wanyue was.

Wanyue knelt in the yard for a whole day that day and was frostbitten all over, especially her knees, which were seriously injured. I don’t know how she has recovered in the past few days.

Realizing that she was still worried about Wanyue, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

When Xiaotao saw her stop in front of the yard where Wanyue was, she thought she was going in to see Wanyue.

Even if the misunderstanding between the two was huge, Wan Yue had admitted her mistake that day. Given Mu Qingli's personality, she should have calmed down by now.

But she just stayed at the door for a while and then turned and left. Seeing this, he had no choice but to follow Mu Qingli.
