Chapter 18: There is a beautiful woman on the water side

After the banquet that day, Emperor Hui no longer summoned everyone, but everyone was happy.

When you have nothing to do, you can get together. Or travel hand in hand, visit the beautiful scenery of Tianjing, or drink and talk, send love to poetry and chess, but they also tacitly only talk about the wind and the moon, and do not talk about state affairs.

Among the people, Su Jingnian has lived a life and has rich experience, and because he is also influenced by modern advanced thoughts, he cannot help but have his own unique views on things and things. As a matter of course, he became the leader of this small group of royalty members from various countries, and captured everyone as fans. Among them, the love of the twelve worships is especially great.

After getting acquainted, Su Jingnian also inquired about his little cousin from Twelve, intentionally or unintentionally. Twelve told the truth that the little cousin had been frail and sickly since she was a child, and she was kept outside the house, and she was almost unheard of, let alone seen her true face. Although Su Jingnian secretly sighed at a pity, he was also glad that Wan Yan Liruo was able to survive the Blood Moon Incident.

Count the time, and tomorrow will be the covenant of the half moon.

Su Jingnian tossed and turned this night, and he didn't feel sleepy. It was as if there was a naughty kitten that kept scratching the tip of her heart with its paws, which tickled her heart. Secretly laughing at himself, how could he be like a schoolboy looking forward to a spring outing, and he couldn't calm down for a moment.

I finally survived the late night, and I couldn't help but get out of bed before dawn.

Rummaging through the cabinets, among their own clothes, picking and picking, choosing and choosing. finally chose the clothes, and it was the copper-green robe with rouge moire that Yan Liruo wore when he first met him. This dress has never been worn by the owner since she saw the cold beauty. Zhongyao washed it, stacked it well, and became a treasure at the bottom of the prince's box.

After repeatedly making sure that his appearance was neat, he put on a half-human-high wooden box on his back, hid his tracks, and sneaked out of the palace.

It is said that the Qinhuai River passes through Tianjing and is divided into an inland river and an outer river. The outer river passes through the urn city, the river is wide, and the water transport is the mainstay, all of which are big ships. The inland river flows through the inner city, and the river channel is much narrower than the outer river, for people to enjoy, and there are many boats and boats.

The inland river gently surrounds the Confucius Temple, connects Wuyi Lane, and forms the "Ten Miles of Qinhuai" with beautiful charm and the best in the world. The gold powder and jade buildings are all over the two banks, and there are countless vermilion lantern painting boats. Restaurants, green buildings, poetry societies, and merchants are all built near the water, and there is only one step between launching and going ashore. But it is always one step away.

When Su Jingnian arrived at the shore, the sky was cloudy. The lights are still warm, and the noise is faint. The men who had been looking for a happy night were still unsatisfied, faltering, accompanied by three or two, and returned separately.

As the sun rises, vendors come out and merchants reopen. All kinds of painting boats in the water are neatly arranged on both sides of the river, and the beauties in the boat fall ashore, and all kinds of flowers bloom for a time, and the outstanding people compete for beauty, and it is very good-looking.

Su Jingnian couldn't help but look at it curiously, and the girls who came ashore also looked at this handsome young man standing on a high place. Some of the bold ones also whistled, and when Su Jingnian heard the whistle, he hurriedly withdrew his eyes and smiled embarrassedly. The stupid appearance caused a coquettish smile on the shore.

The Qinhuai River and the residents who are drunk with gold have ushered in a new day.

Su Jingnian looked for a high ground on the shore, looked at Wanzhong Sail from afar, and looked for the white sail and gold flag. After looking at it for a long time, there were all kinds of sails and flags, but there was no white sail gold flag. I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in my heart, but after thinking about it, Leng Meiren did not say the specific time of meeting, but said "goodbye by fate", so it is better to arrive early than late. Thinking that I will soon see the person who thinks about it day and night, my heart is filled with joy, and I am instantly squeezed and lost without a trace.

Today, except for a few dark clouds in the west, it can be regarded as a beautiful day with beautiful wind and sunshine, and a good day for boating. The number of tourists on the shore gradually increased, and the men and women rented a painting boat and went into the water to play. The same river, the same painting boat, just because of the different identities of different people, the prosperity of the Qinhuai River during the day and at night is separated.

Su Jingnian waited for a whole morning, motionless for a few hours, his eyes focused on searching the surface of the water over and over again, for fear that he would miss it. Sweat oozed from her forehead from the noon sun, and the sweat gradually gathered into beads and ran down her cheeks. Just as I was about to lift my sleeves to wipe my sweat, suddenly something came with the wind. Su Jingnian grabbed it vigilantly, and when he saw it, it was a white silk handkerchief.

It was she who ?!!! Su Jingnian's heart suddenly tugged! This Spa has a hint of fragrance, rich and flamboyant, completely different from the light aroma of her body, and must not be hers. The light in his eyes dimmed.

"Childe. Can you return Jinpa to the slave family?" said the woman with a good face, ran two steps quickly, and came to Su Jingnian.

The woman is dressed brightly, and the fragrance on her body coincides with the silk handkerchief, so she must be the owner of the silk handkerchief.

Su Jingnian said with a smile, "May the things return to their original owners." "Offer it politely with both hands.

The woman took the silk handkerchief, thanked her, and then turned and smiled and left.

"Miss?" Mo Yan called carefully.

"Back to the ship. Mo Ruoli said in a low voice.

"Yes. "Master Su, it's still against heaven to do evil, and you can't live if you do it yourself......

It turned out that Mo Ruoli went out to run errands with Mo Yan a few days ago, and on this day, because of an appointment with Su Jingnian, he specially rode a horse back. As soon as he came to the shore, he witnessed the drama of Su Jingnian and a woman dressed as a demon "affectionate and giving each other tokens".

Poor Su Jingnian didn't know at this time that he had been sentenced to death. Still stupidly continued to search for all kinds of ships, looking for all kinds of excuses for the delayed future.

In fact, Mo Ruoli's boat stopped not far from the shore where Su Jingnian was standing, and Mo Yu on the boat had long seen Su Jingnian's green and white robe. It's just that the princess hasn't returned, and with a few guts, she won't dare to raise the golden flag rashly.

"Miss!" Mo Yu called out in surprise. The princess is back, and I'm afraid that the half-blind will be dried later. It's just that the princess's face doesn't seem right?

"Yes. Mo Ruoli replied and walked to the cabin.

Mo Yu hurriedly followed and asked, "That half-blind has been waiting on the shore for a long time, so I'm going to raise the golden flag?"

Mo Ruoli frowned lightly and said in a low voice, "This palace wants to study in the study, and there is nothing important, so you must not disturb it." ”

Mo Yu was shocked, except for formal occasions, the princess of her family would only call herself the palace when she was very angry. Didn't you get angry when you went out to run errands???

Seeing that Mo Yu still wanted to ask, Mo Yan hurriedly pulled her sleeve and gave her a look to signal not to ask any more. Mo Yu closed his mouth in recognition of this.

Mo Ruoli went into the study, looked for a book, and then lay on the couch and read it.

Mo Yu lit up the vanilla, the light mist rose, and the room was full of fragrant fragrance.

Out of the study, Mo Yu could no longer endure the burning gossip soul, and found Mo Yu to make a sound. Who was so bold to make the princess so angry? What should be done with the half-blind on the shore???

Mo Ruoli spent an afternoon flipping through books in the study, yes, flipping books. One after another, the books that had been flipped around me had gradually piled up on the hills, and the bookshelves were half empty. The boredom in her heart did not decrease by half a point, and she sighed, what happened to her??? today's book, and why is it so ugly??? there seemed to be a spider silk dancing lightly in her mind, which made her thoughts confused, and she reached out to grab it, but she couldn't catch it.

Su Jingnian on the shore has never had such a deep personal experience of the word "degrees and seconds like years" as he does now. The initial hope and joy in my heart were gradually covered by disappointment and bitterness as time passed.

The road of waiting is the most difficult, every minute and second is infinitely stretched under the feet, the road is rugged, there is no end in sight, and every step is a torment of the heart. And the most terrible thing is to wait until you reach the end of the wait, and find that what awaits you is likely to be a dark or the next waiting road. To go, to go, to wait, to wait, to wait, to wait, to be depressed and entangled, to quench the soul again and again, and to collapse in only a moment.

Dark clouds gradually spread in the west, obscuring the sun, and the sky became gray.

The vendors hurriedly put away their stalls, and the people on the shore also looked for shelter from the rain.

The autumn rain began to fall like this, without mercy. The rain curtain shrouded a thin veil on the water, adding another touch of excitement to Qin Huai.

Su Jingnian secretly thought, this is the house leak happened to rain overnight, and even God came to join in the fun. He simply didn't hide from it, and it rained.

The rain hit her face, cold, and even the breath she exhaled turned white. The rain stained the clothes, and after a while, the upper clothes were almost soaked.

When Mo Yu saw her stupid rain, she was relieved and made the princess angry. It's really not a good thing to be obsessed with the princess on the surface, but secretly messing with flowers and grass!!

The tourists in the water seemed to be even more interested when they saw the smoke and rain. The sound of silk bamboo and chanting poems floats leisurely on the water, and in the quiet rain curtain, it is even more ethereal.

Su Jingnian had an idea, and opened his mouth to sing:

"The grass is green, the white mist is vast,

There is a beautiful woman, on the water side.

The green grass is green, the white mist is blurred,

There is a beautiful woman who lives by the water.

I would like to swim against the current,

Snuggle up beside her.

There is a dangerous beach in front of helplessness,

The road is long and long.

I'm willing to go down the river,

Find her direction.

But I saw it vaguely,

She was in the middle of the water.

The grass is green, the white mist is boundless,

There is a beautiful woman, on the water side. ”

(Lyrics from: "In the Water Must Be" - Qiong Yao)

The song wafted on the water, and it was so engrossing that it only took a few breaths to drown out the sound of the tumbling, attracting the ears of both the shore and the shore.

Mo Ruoli was anxious, and suddenly heard singing on the shore. This song is like weeping, like a complaint, like a longing. The lyrics originate from "The Book of Poetry", which euphemistically tells the singer's deep yearning for the person he misses. The melody is low and tactful, with a mysterious and exotic overtone. Mo Ruoli listened carefully, and his thoughts also settled.

"Green Lotus, you go and take a look. Whoever is singing this song, be sure to invite him. Weiyang commanded.

"Yes. ”

Weiyang sat in front of the window of the Xuexue Building and enjoyed the rain alone. But he was attracted by the sound of this singing, and wondered who could sing such a beautiful song, so he called the green lotus to follow the sound to find it.

Mo Yu was listening to the porch window, when suddenly the door of the study was opened from the inside out, and Mo Ruoli walked out.

Seeing Mo Yu, he lowered his eyebrows and blamed, "It's raining, why don't you sue me?"

"???" Mo Yu's eyes widened, the rain had been falling for a long time, and the raindrops slapped the hull of the boat, making such a loud sound. It's not that the princess is asleep, otherwise why do you need me to remind you???

Mo Ruoli sighed lightly, and said as he walked out, "Bring an umbrella." ”

Su Jingnian sang a song, and when he looked around, he still didn't see the white sail golden flag. secretly laughed at himself for being smart, and the cold beauty was afraid that she didn't come to the appointment at all.

"Alas. "I sighed, and I was very depressed. Compared with the autumn rain and cold wind, Su Jingnian's heart is even cooler and thorough. I am not as important to you as you are in my heart. Such a simple and clear fact, every time I recognize it, my heart can't help but feel sour, and even the corners of my eyes are astringent.

Lift your sleeves to wipe your face and wipe away the rain.

When I raised my eyes again, I found that the rain curtain on my head was covered by a red oil-paper umbrella, and I didn't shoot my face anymore. With the lesson of Sipa's last time, Su Jingnian did not have much hope this time.

turned around to thank the person behind him who was holding the umbrella for himself, but he found that what caught his eye was the white in his dream.

It was her!! it turned out to be her!! it was really her!! excitement and joy in her heart gushed out like a spring, and she didn't miss the appointment.

His hands were fiddled helplessly, and he said in a trembling voice, "You, you're here." ”

"Why don't you take shelter from the rain?" asked Mo Ruoli.

"I'm afraid that you are here, and you can't find me, so you have to be in a hurry. Su Jingnian laughed a little embarrassedly, and his fair face turned red.

"......" Mo Ruoli was silent for a while, and said softly, "Silly." ”
