Sweet Desire! The Cold Lord God, Who Can Tease, Coax, and Act Coquettish. - Chap 2057 Love Across Time and Space
Early in the morning, the emperor’s impatient roar was heard from the Jiyue Dynasty’s council hall.
His gilded robe swayed slightly. Facing the advice from the whole court to take a concubine, Du Linyuan slammed the table and refused sternly.
“In my heart, there is a white moonlight.”
“When I was five years old, I saw him descend from the sky. His white clothes were whiter than snow, more beautiful than any other sight in the world.”
“I have promised that I will not marry anyone but him in this life. Please do not persuade me anymore, even if I die!”
After these words, the court fell into silence.
Perhaps he felt that it was too shameful to die for the matter of taking a concubine, and he did not hear any consolation until he returned to his bedroom.
Du Linyuan was in a good mood and read the memorials much faster than usual.
However, when all the things were dealt with, I couldn’t help but fall into melancholy——
The banished immortal said that his name was Si Jin and that they would meet again if we were destined to.
But he is twenty-five years old this year, and recalls that the last time they met was twenty years ago.
During this period, many people suspected that he was crazy, sick, or stupid, and there was even an imperial physician who secretly treated him at the order of the empress dowager.
But only he himself knew that he was not sick, he was just waiting for someone he hadn’t seen for a long time.
For some reason, he always felt that the person would appear again. Even if it was only in this life, it would be worth it if he could only see her once before he died.
“Alas.” Du Linyuan sighed lightly and slowly stood up. His personal eunuch helped him to wash and dress. After sending his attendants away, he put on only an inner garment and sat in front of the bronze mirror, staring blankly.
Maybe it was because he missed her too much, but after a while, he discovered that there was another world in the bronze mirror.
The walls there were all snow-white, and there were many new and strange things he had never seen before. There was an iron box on the ground that moved by itself, and wherever it passed, everything became spotless.
Looking further away, you can see a snow-white door.
There were no carvings or window paper on it, only a vague membrane, through which the sound of flowing water could be heard.
It seems to be that world, the place for bathing.
After a while, the sound of water stopped, the white door opened, and someone walked out slowly, with a pure white bath towel tied around his waist.
Looking up again, the water droplets on the abdominal muscles have not fallen yet, and they are arranged irregularly in large and small sizes.
The short black hair was covered with undried water, which dripped from the ends of the hair to the collarbone, and the man raised the towel and wiped it away carelessly.
Then, the man sat in front of the bronze mirror, facing him silently through the mirror.
His pupils involuntarily dilated, Du Linyuan was stunned, his hands clasped on the edge of the table slowly tightened, his gaze shifted back and forth, patrolling that face back and forth several times.
Finally, it was confirmed that this strange person with indecent clothes and short hair was Si Jin!
I won’t admit my mistake.
Over the years, he had painted countless portraits and sketched countless times in order to find someone. The facial features of the exiled immortal Jin, including every frown and smile during that brief meeting, were all imprinted in his mind without any mistakes or omissions.
But the one in front of me is obviously different from what I saw before…
Du Linyuan suspected that he was dreaming. Not to mention that his clothes were revealing, his hair and body were given by his parents. How could he just cut it, and cut it so short!
He simply closed his eyes and slapped his face twice – he was dreaming, he must be dreaming, and when he woke up, he would be able to see the real exiled immortal again.
Du Linyuan lied to himself again and again, expecting to see something else in the bronze mirror after opening his eyes. However, when he looked again, the scene from the other world had completely disappeared and the bronze mirror returned to normal.
He could see nothing but himself.
“…”
Du Linyuan blinked twice, feeling unprecedented panic in his heart.
What should I do? It seems that I have angered the exiled immortal
