Chapter 8: The Boundless Pavilion
Knock ~ Knock ~ knock, there was a knock on the door, Ling Xi came back to his senses, calmed down for a while, and then went over to open the door.
Sure enough, he came as promised, but today he was dressed in black.
"Is Miss Ling ready?"
"Well, can I ask where we're going?" Ling Xi felt that he was much kinder today than he was yesterday.
"Boundless. After speaking, he made a gesture of "please", and then said to her: "Wuya Pavilion is not open to the public, so please don't mention it to others in the future." ”
"Good. ”
"Is Miss Ling's foot injury better?"
"It's okay already, thank you for your concern. ”
"Please follow me. ”
The two of them didn't talk anymore along the way, and Ling Xi followed him only to find that this palace was really not simple. In fact, when he came out of the Jade Glass Pavilion, Ling Xi cheered up his spirits, thinking that the opportunity was rare, and no matter how he was, he had to remember the road.
But the current situation is that after the Jade Glass Pavilion passed through the corridor, there was a rockery in the courtyard, and I saw him take her to approach the rockery, and put the palm of his hand on the mountainside, and a narrow door opened in the middle of the rockery, and she was instantly dumbfounded.
As if he had read through her thoughts at the moment, he said, "I said it a long time ago, it's true that there is a mechanism. Come, go in. ”
"I've heard it and seen it with my own eyes, I originally thought that this was a plot made up from film and television dramas. She said as she followed him in.
After the two of them entered, the rockery door automatically closed again.
What catches your eye is that the courtyard looks very old, revealing a strong sense of history, and there is also a sense of loneliness. She didn't dare to ask more, just followed.
Just when the two of them reached the end of the courtyard, they saw that he also put his hand in the middle of the wall, and another door opened in the middle of the whole wall, Ling Xi had to widen his eyes, looked and looked, and couldn't see anything famous, he could only secretly sigh at the ingenuity of the mechanism.
Passing through the wall, she was greeted by another world, much larger than she had imagined, and a little unrealistically beautiful. Flowing clouds and waterfalls, flowers and trees are sparse, pavilions and pavilions contrast with each other, and there are flying colorful butterflies accompanying them.
Just as she was sighing at the beautiful scenery, she heard him say, "Miss Ling: This is the Boundless Pavilion, come in and sit with me." ”
"I didn't expect it to be so beautiful and feel so isolated. As he spoke, he followed him through the door.
After entering the door, under his signal, Ling Xi sat down at the tea table, and there was nothing special in the room, it was relatively simple and poetic, and it was not much different from the Jade Glass Pavilion where she lived.
"Miss Ling: Please use tea. ”
"Thank you. ”
"Qin Rufeng, my name. ”
"Ahh Oh, why did you suddenly tell me again?" Ling Xi was surprised to hear him tell him his name.
"I just think it's fate, so I'll tell you. He was calm.
"Fate?"
"Well, in fact, it's not so easy to get into the forbidden land in the garden. And you were able to break in unexpectedly last night, not because of fate. ”
"I see, but I really don't know how I stumbled into it by mistake last night, and I can only apologize to you if I disturbed you. ”
"I don't mean to be held responsible, in fact, I invited Miss Ling here today to ask you to do me a favor. ”
"If I can help, I will definitely help, because I was able to get out of the forbidden land last night thanks to your help. ”
"Miss Ling still remembers telling you last night that I opened the door to find someone. ”
"Well, I remember. ”
"Maybe Miss Ling, you're the person I'm looking for. ”
"Huh, me?" was so shocked that she was the one he was looking for, how could it be?
"I just said maybe, and I'm not sure you must be, so can you please verify whether it is or not?" Qin Rufeng looked sincere.
"Verification, how to verify?" to be honest, she was really confused.
"Wait a minute. Then he got up and went into the inner chamber.
Ling Xi never thought that he had brought her here because he felt that he was the person he was looking for, and for her, he was really completely confused.
After a while, Qin Rufeng came back with a small wooden box. Just by looking at the texture and carving process of the box, you know that it must be very valuable. Although she doesn't know anything about antiques, art appraisals and the like.
"In this box is the Gu Qinglong jade plate. As he spoke, he opened the box and took out the jade plaque, then looked at her and said, "I will hand over this ancient green dragon jade plaque to you in a while, if you are the person I am looking for, then this ancient green dragon jade plaque will be awakened, so that it will become turquoise and translucent, and even emit a brilliant green light." If not, then it's still what you see now, just a lifeless antique jade plaque. ”
Ling Xi's head "boomed" suddenly, and he was stunned and didn't know why. She remembered the things that Li Jia conveyed on the phone at noon that Xiao Mo wanted to pay attention to, as well as the Qinglong jade plate that she should pay attention to.
Oh my God, how could things be like this? She intuitively felt that the green dragon jade plate that Xiao Mo was talking about was the same thing as the ancient green dragon jade card in Qin Rufeng's hand in front of her. But what puzzled and shocked her was how Xiao Mo knew that there was this green dragon jade plaque in the garden?
"Miss Ling, can you do me a favor, would you like to give it a try?" Qin Rufeng saw that she didn't speak, and then asked again.
"Okay, but I guess the results will disappoint you. She didn't believe she was the person he was looking for. Her mind was only full of incredulity now, because the sudden events had completely exceeded her information, and the complexity was far more complicated than she had thought. ……
Looking at the Qinglong jade card handed over by Qin Rufeng, she hesitated for a moment and then took it. I also took this opportunity to take a closer look at this jade plate, which is indeed lifeless and sullen, but the exquisite and lifelike green dragon on the jade plate is also clearly visible, and the back of the jade plate is engraved with a word that looks very similar to "Qin".
"This is a Qin character, this ancient green dragon jade plate is my family's heirloom, nearly 2,300 years old. ”
"It's a real antique, and it's worth a fortune. ”
She didn't react to the jade card in her hand, and it didn't happen like what he said just now, and she wasn't the person he was looking for, to be honest, she didn't want to be involved at all, and instinctively felt that there was nothing good.
"I think I'm probably going to disappoint you, it shouldn't be you......" Ling Xi didn't finish her words before she felt the jade card in her hand become warm, it was still cold just now, but at this moment she could clearly feel that it was warm, she was so shocked that she didn't know how to react.
Then the incredible thing happened in front of her eyes, the jade plaque really seemed to come to life, gradually becoming translucent, and even surrounded by a faint green light.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes and experienced it herself, she would never have believed that there was such a miraculous thing in this world.
"Sure enough, you're the one I'm looking for. Qin Rufeng's tone was flat, but it was difficult to hide his slightly excited look.
"This ...... What the hell is going on? I really don't understand. She was really shocked to a blank head at the moment, and it is estimated that no one can face it calmly for a while.
"You calm down first, since you are the person I am looking for, I will naturally tell you everything. You take a sip of tea first to calm down, and I'll tell you slowly in a while. Qin Rufeng knew how shocked she was, and she needed a little time to slow down.
How could he not be shocked by Qin Rufeng himself? In fact, he didn't have much hope for inviting her to try it today, after all, he had waited too long......
Everything came to her one after another without warning, and no matter how calm and rational she usually was, she couldn't act as if nothing had happened now.
Looking back, from the time Xiao Mo suddenly announced the arrangement of the outing, everything had passed through her mind at a rapid pace.
So far, what is certain is that Xiao Mo's arrangement of the outing from the beginning was just a pretense, and his original goal was to leave the palace. And from beginning to end, he kept it a secret from himself...... It doesn't make sense...... Unless Xiao Mo's target was also in her from the beginning.
This realization instantly made her shiver, if this was the case, it would be terrible.
Also, how did Xiao Mo know about the Qinglong Jade Plate, and how much did he know about leaving the palace?
From this point of view, the acquisition of the Imperial Palace must be a disguise, but what is his real purpose? Could it be...... Qinglong jade card?
So what role does Zhao Jingxuan play in the middle?
There is no answer to all of this, so what do you do next?
Today, Qin Rufeng brought her to Boundless Pavilion, was it really as he said, just with the mentality of trying, or was it for some other reason?
What kind of relationship does that green dragon jade plate have with himself?......
Perhaps, she can only wait for Qin Rufeng to tell her the answer.
