Shallow autumn, slightly cool, when the night is near. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Lin Yinyin couldn't bear the sleepiness for a long time, and followed the maidservant back to the palace. Gu Liuying also looked a little tired, leaning on the brocade seat, her eyes closed, and she was drowsy.

Lin Jianzhi fought hard and looked at the graceful and expressive dancing girl in the main hall. The clothes are fluttering, the flying silk is like a waterfall, the peach cheeks are shy, the beautiful eyes are looking forward to it, and the gentle and sweet smile is just to win his attention for a moment, but the only woman he cares about has completely forgotten him.

The people of Lin Yi are still quietly drinking tea, deep and clear, and the ancient well is not wavering, as if it is integrated with this vast long night.

"I used to drink tea with your father. Lin Qitan looked at the sparse imperial chrysanthemum on the case, as if talking to himself.

The tea cup in Lin Yiren's hand stagnated slightly.

"He doesn't like to drink and plays the piano very well. ”

The tea cup rippled shallowly.

"You don't look like him......" Lin Qitan let out a long sigh, "You don't look like him at all when you laugh." ”

Lin Yiren slowly lowered his eyes, and his slender fingers gradually clenched. Outside the main hall, a flash of lightning suddenly pierced the dark night sky, and then a rumbling thunder rolled in.

"Your Majesty. Gu Liuying was slightly startled and opened her beautiful eyes.

"What's the matter, Concubine Qin is scared?" Lin Qitan said meaningfully.

"Lightning and thunder," Gu Liuying lazily rubbed the corners of her forehead, "The movement of this imperial chrysanthemum blooming is also too big." ”

"Emperor Ju ......" Lin Qitan looked outside the hall, "If Concubine Qin is tired, she might as well go to the apse to rest first." ”

"The emperor is sympathetic to the concubines, how can the concubines only care about sleeping by themselves? Besides, the concubines also want to see what kind of situation the imperial chrysanthemum is like when it blooms?"

Whoa...... The torrential rain poured down from the night sky and smashed into the courtyard and the ridge of the temple, making a deafening sound. Lin Yiren's clenched fist slowly loosened, and he took a sip of tea quietly.

"Stand down. Lin Qitan waved his sleeves.

A group of singing and dancing girls immediately retreated, and there was no sound in the hall except for the sound of rain.

"Do you remember your father's appearance?" In the empty hall, Lin Tantan's voice echoed.

"I have the impression that my father is elegant and elegant, and his temperament is very gentle. Lin Yiren said respectfully.

"Yes," Lin Qitan seemed to fall into memory, "In the past, when several royal brothers had disputes, your father mediated between them. ”

Weichen occasionally dreamed of his father, in which he was always wearing a azure brocade robe, and his face was extremely blurry, so he couldn't see clearly. "Lin Yi is humane.

"Azure ......" Lin Qitan's expression was a little lonely, "The imperial brother has always loved the white clothes of the moon, and Yiren doesn't remember it." ”

"It's the unfilial piety of the micro-ministers. Lin Yiren said gloomily.

"Your Majesty," Gu Liuying poured wine for Lin Qitan, "When Yiran passed away, Yiren was only seven years old, what could he remember?"

"Yes," Lin Qitan picked up the wine cup, "seven years old...... I can't blame him either. ”

"The emperor still takes care of the dragon's body, these sad pasts, don't mention them in the future. Gu Liuying comforted.

"Don't mention it...... Don't mention it. Lin Qitan raised his head and drank the wine.

Bang, Bang Bang...... In the pouring rain, the sound of beating was heard in the distance. Wu Huansheng hurriedly ran in from outside the main hall, "Your Majesty, the time has arrived." ”

Lin Qitan snorted lightly, pointed to the emperor chrysanthemum on the case, and said, "Jianzhi, Yiren, you all come and take a look." ”

"Yes. Lin Jianzhi and Lin Yiren stepped forward according to their words.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the delicate chrysanthemums in the clay pots. After a while, the chrysanthemum was still the same, without the slightest change.

"Wu Wansheng," Lin Qitan frowned, "bring the person who offered the flowers." ”

"Yes. Wu Huansheng turned around and walked out, and when he arrived at the door, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly walked back, "Your Majesty, the slave remembers that Lord Feng once said that this flower has a sense of brilliance under the moonlight, could it be that the main hall blocks the moonlight, so the imperial chrysanthemum can't bloom?"

"It's a rainstorm today, where did you get any moonlight?" Lin Qitan said unhappily.

"It's the old slave who is careless. Wu Huansheng was about to retreat in fear, but he heard Lin Yiren say softly, "Your Majesty, I don't know if the night pearl can replace the moonlight." ”

"Night Pearl......" Lin Qitan groaned, "Wu Huansheng, go get a few Night Pearls." ”

"Yes. Wu Huansheng glanced at Lin Yiren gratefully, and hurriedly walked towards the apse.

When Wu Huansheng hung the eight night pearls on the pillars of the main hall, Lin Qitan ordered the maidservants to blow out the candles in the hall one by one.

簌簌簌...... 簌簌簌...... Like a breeze blowing across the water, the sparse leaves of the imperial chrysanthemum began to tremble slightly in the glow of the night pearl, and the purple and gold petals danced lightly, and the refreshing fragrance became more and more intense.

Gradually, the thin branches became strong, and the originally shriveled leaves seemed to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, slowly expanding. A curly petal slowly stretched, suddenly splitting in two, and the faint gold filament hidden in the purple petals carried an indescribable mystery and dignity.

Immediately after, the petals begin to stretch and split...... Wanton and enchanting, radiant, with no hesitation, trying their best to bloom, as if this night's bloom is the last fragrance left in the world.

Smack! The layers of petals of the imperial chrysanthemum finally opened, and everyone realized that among the slender golden stamens, there was a bright yellow core the size of a bright yellow flower the size of a glossy and translucent rice grain.

"Your Majesty, this core and stamen look like a flower within a flower. Gu Liuying said.

"A flower of flowers?" Lin Qitan looked closer, and couldn't help but sigh, "Although it is a little smaller, if you look closely, it really looks like a fairy Lingzhi." ”

"The emperor thinks, which is more beautiful than the jade carved chrysanthemum in front of him?"

"The process of flowering is naturally more thrilling than the imperial chrysanthemum, but if you want to talk about ......beauty," Lin Qitan picked up the jade carving chrysanthemum on the case, "If this jade carving is the same as the one in the ancestral tomb, it is a priceless treasure, and how can it be a beautiful word." ”

"Shocking, unforgettable, the emperor chrysanthemum is really extraordinary, and the sons congratulate their father on this treasure. "The way of the forest stream.

"Good, good. Lin Qitan raised his eyebrows, "Wu Huansheng, go to reward the person who offered the flowers, and ask the way to raise flowers by the way, if the flowers return to Xiao'an, there is anything missing, and the relevant people should be punished." ”

"Yes. Wu Huansheng bowed and retreated.

That night, there was a joy in Jingpei Palace, because everyone slept late, and the next day the maidservants served Lin Qitan and Gu Liuying after washing, everyone had breakfast, and it was already three poles in the day.

Outside Jingpei Palace, the royal chariot, dragon flags, and honor guards had been waiting for a long time, Lin Qitan and Gu Liuying boarded the carriage first, and Lin Jianzhi, Lin Yiren, and Lin Yinyin sat in their respective carriages in turn.

"The emperor is driving-" With a loud shout from the chamberlain, a group of carriages and horses drove towards the drunken gate.

"Concubine Qin," Lin Qitan rubbed his forehead and said, "After meeting Ri Moshu today, you will accompany me to come back earlier." ”

"What's wrong with the emperor's dragon body?" Gu Liuying said.

"Somehow these days, I always feel a little tired. ”

"The emperor works day and night for state affairs, and the concubines are not well taken care of. ”

"It's not a big deal, it's good to have two days off......"

"Xinzhou," Lin Yiren lifted the corner of the curtain, and a green horse immediately approached the carriage, "You go to my senior brother and ask him if he has heard of the imperial chrysanthemum." ”

"Yes. The green horse stood silently on his side, and after everyone had gone away, he galloped away with his mane and flying hooves.
