Chapter 23: A Chance Encounter in the Night

In the early summer nights, the imperial city is silent except for the occasional night patrol. The lights have long been dimmed, only fireflies are flying in the air, and the light moonlight reflects the deep palace lane.

Su Wanxi wore a black cloak, deliberately avoided the Imperial Forest Army that patrolled for half a quarter, and quietly came to the Drunken Moon Pavilion. Her steps were slightly hasty, and she looked behind her again and again, making sure that no one had just lifted the curtain of the Drunken Moon Pavilion and hurriedly entered.

When she entered the pavilion, Wanxi was about to take off her cloak, when she saw a person sitting by the wine pool, and she was suddenly startled and almost screamed.

"Is that you?" the man by the pool let out a surprised voice first.

Hearing this, Su Wanxi was stunned, it was actually him who ...... "Prince?" She was a little incredulous, how could he be here alone at such a late hour?

Shen Jingyuan didn't expect that the early summer weather began to be stuffy, he was upset recently, and he went out to swim alone, and inadvertently remembered the Drunken Moon Pavilion again, so he sent the ghost to come over, but he didn't expect her to come too.

"You?" Shen Jingyuan didn't know what to say for a while, such a coincidence was slightly embarrassing, "What are you doing?"

Su Wanxi didn't expect him to be here, the first encounter in the Drunken Moon Pavilion was just a careful arrangement by her, but this time it was definitely accidental.

"The prince's words are strange, Wanxi still wants to ask, what are you doing here?" Knowing that it was Shen Jingyuan, she didn't have to worry about it, and took off her cloak by herself.

Shen Jingyuan looked at Wanxi's vague face, got up and grabbed her wrist, and said in a low voice, "I think you are very suspicious." ”

The distance between the two was very close, and they smiled and said, "Why am I suspicious?"

"Why do you always come here in the middle of the night?" Shen Jingyuan's eyes shone with essence, and he wanted to see her through.

Wanxi still smiled and said: "Then don't hide it from the prince, Wanxi loves to mix fragrances, and the wine of the Drunken Moon Pavilion is also an important source of incense." ”

Hearing this, Shen Jingyuan noticed that the fragrance on her body seemed to be much lighter than the strong fragrance that poured for thousands of miles when he first encountered. He slowly let go of Wanxi's hand, turned around and said, "You are also arrogant, if you were discovered by others, you would have been arrested as an assassin." ”

Su Wanxi covered her smile and asked in a low voice, "Are you concerned about me?"

Shen Jingyuan was upset, he didn't know why he always missed this woman, her words and deeds always lingered in his mind, and today's coincidence made his heart even more troubled and at a loss.

Su Zhaoyi spoke with a sense of proportion. Shen Jingyuan said, and didn't look back at her, "Then you are the one who saved me, right?"

Su Wanxi smiled faintly: "Since you mentioned it, then I will also ask, I am very puzzled why the prince of the dignified palace was seriously injured alone?"

Shen Jingyuan took a deep breath, and his figure looked very lonely in the night. "Look at an old man. ”

Su Wanxi's heart was shocked, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she didn't know whether she thought it was funny or sad. "Alone to see the old man, it seems that you don't want anyone to know that you went to see her. ”

Hearing this, Shen Jingyuan turned his head suddenly, looked at her gloomily and said, "You don't understand anything." ”

Su Wanxi met his gaze coldly: "What don't I understand?" Shen Jingyuan, you tell me, I don't understand what I don't understand? I don't understand why you didn't save me and Hao'er when they saw death, or I don't understand why you went to the cemetery to see an empty tomb.

Shen Jingyuan looked at her eyes, as if a lightning bolt hit the tip of his heart, laughed at himself, turned around again, and said lightly: "You don't understand the feeling of love and hate." ”

Shen Jingyuan, I'm afraid there is no one in the world who understands that feeling better than me, and you are worthy of saying love? I don't know who you are going to see an empty tomb for, but it must not be because you love a woman named Bai Wuxue in your heart...... Even though Su Wanxi is now very disgusted with Shen Jingyuan's hypocrisy in her heart, and even wants to tear his mask fiercely, but she can't, her plan is still far away, in order to take revenge on these people who have hurt her, she must endure and take every step of the way.

There was a long silence in the Drunken Moon Pavilion, Shen Jingyuan felt very weird, and was about to turn around, but unexpectedly, she carefully hugged herself from behind, her body stiffened, and she was a little overwhelmed.

"I regret it. Su Wanxi said softly, leaning her head on his sturdy back.

Shen Jingyuan could feel her thin breathing, letting her hug him like this, and his tone was slightly depressed: "What do you regret?"

"It would be nice if I wasn't the daughter of an eunuch. Her tone was pitiful, and the meaning of her words was so obvious that Shen Jingyuan understood it after hearing it.

Deep in the harem, how many women are voluntary?

"I want to hide in the mountains and forests, and then grow old with the man I love. Su Wanxi said softly, but there was a little unknown smile on the corner of her mouth.

Shen Jingyuan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he had heard such things happen to someone once upon a time. "Ah Qi, why don't you give up the throne and return to the mountains and forests with me to grow old......!" Ever since he met Wanxi, Shen Jingyuan has often dreamed of Bai Wuxue, as if he was stunned, and he would always see the obscure little woman by the lotus pond in his dreams, calling himself "Ah Qi" softly with red cheeks.

Shen Jingyuan thought about it, and couldn't help but push Su Wanxi away, turned around and looked at her with frowns.

Su Wanxi's face was extremely exquisite, Shen Jingyuan couldn't find a single flaw, but he just looked at the pair of watery eyes, as if he had seen the woman in his dream.

If it weren't for the dream, Shen Jingyuan would have forgotten that Bai Wuxue had left so many memories in his life. But why is it that Su Wanxi will remind herself of Bai Wuxue all the time in the future, these two women who are not related to each other can always be reminiscent of each other, perhaps because they both reveal an inexplicably similar temperament, or because Su Wanxi's words and deeds always have an amazing resemblance to Bai Wuxue, especially looking at her gaze, which is the same as Bai Wuxue back then, but in the middle, there are some other things.

"We saw it a long time ago?" Shen Jingyuan asked lightly, he didn't know how he was stunned, and he would associate the woman in front of him with the white dancing snow, maybe it was because of the ethereal dream, which disturbed him a little delirious.

As soon as these words came out, I saw Su Wanxi's beautiful eyes with tears, staring into his eyes, and said in a slightly astringent voice: "I have seen you in that year's Lin'an amnesty." ”

Three years ago, Shen Wende's thirteenth son, the king's heart was happy, so he was on the top of the city tower and granted amnesty to the world, and as the crown prince at that time, Shen Jingyuan had been by Shen Wen's side.

"That glance moved my heart. It's a pity that my life has long been doomed, and my life has already been arranged. Su Wanxi said, crying pear blossoms with rain.

Shen Jingyuan never thought that this woman had seen him a few years ago, and she fell in love with her at first sight, so she felt compassion in her heart and hugged Su Wanxi, who was crying.

In her words, some are true and some are false. At the time of the amnesty three years ago, she was indeed under the city tower, but at that time she was in the arms of another man, looking coldly at him in white clothes on the city tower, biting her lip, blood oozing out.

Shen Jingyuan didn't know what to say, hugging Wanxi as if she was hugging a dream that would be shattered at any time, her petite was very pitiful. It's just fate to blame people, if he had seen her three years ago, I'm afraid he would have been fascinated at first sight......

Su Wanxi cried for a long time, and hurriedly pushed Shen Jingyuan away, wiped her tears and said, "Prince, I hope to forget all the things tonight tomorrow." You and I are now disparity, and Xiao Lang passers-by don't have to think about it anymore. She deliberately said that the more a man can't get it, the more he wants it.

Shen Jingyuan still looked at Su Wanxi silently, feeling heartache inexplicably.

Su Wanxi's eyes were hazy with tears, she hurriedly put on her cloak and turned around to escape, but Shen Jingyuan grabbed her wrist again, pulled her into her arms, and suddenly kissed her for a long time.

Knowing that she was already his father's woman, he still couldn't help but be moved...... He also laughed at himself, he was suave all his life, regarded women as playthings, but he couldn't turn a blind eye to this woman. She seemed to have an inexplicable force, secretly tugging at one of his weakest heartstrings.

"If only we had met earlier. Shen Jingyuan buried his head in Wanxi's neck, sniffing the faint fragrance on her body.

The smell of alcohol in the Drunken Moon Pavilion today was even intoxicating, Wanxi only felt a little dizzy, pushed Shen Jingyuan away again, glanced at it and said, "Prince, it's impossible for us." With that, he hurriedly left.

This time, Shen Jingyuan didn't leave her behind, what she said was wrong? She was already the woman of her father's emperor, and she was the crown prince, if something happened to her and was known, the consequences would be unimaginable.

It's just a woman and a dream...... Shen Jingyuan looked at her back as she fled in a hurry, his heart was full of flavors, his eyes widened slightly, he gritted his teeth and turned to leave.

When she returned to the Furui dormitory, Wanxi did not hold the lamp, sat on the edge of the bed in the dark, and raised her lips and chuckled.

Shen Jingyuan, you were deceived by such a simple means, this is the beginning, you owe me, I want you to pay it back a hundred times. I'm going to torture you, little by little, and one day I'll let you know what life is better than death......

In the dark, she laughed like a ghost. The quiet moonlight came in from the window, and I could vaguely see that on the beautiful cheeks, two lines of tears fell without a trace.
