Halfway through spring, the two slowly drove their horses into the city gate of Chang'an. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The dew is heavy and the flowers are heavy, the wind is warm and the warbler is delicate, the sun is warm and smooth, and the spring is like fog all the way. As the days go by, butterflies fly, and the people in the city are in a light mood just like a thin spring shirt.

Chu Yunxi was like Mount Tai pressing on the top, and the rhythm of his heartbeat was faster than a horse's hooves stepping on the ground. She has been raised in the boudoir, although she has been in Chang'an for more than ten years, she is very unfamiliar with this bustling street scene, but the warm air and the blue sky floating in the Spring Festival are familiar as if she has never left.

Wang Xing was originally comfortably shaking the horsewhip in the smokey wind, but when he caught a glimpse of her heavy face, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

A gust of wind suddenly surged on the opposite side, setting off a wave of flowers and rushing towards them, Chu Yunxi raised his hand to block the petals and fell from his fingers, and after the wind passed, they were like a layer of faint fragrant snow. She squinted her eyes and pinched a pear petal on her upper body, and said casually: "It's all this day, the pear blossom hasn't been defeated yet." ”

Wang Xing swept the pear petals, looked at her sideways and said, "It's cold this year, and the pear blossoms bloom late, do you like pear blossoms?" ”

Chu Yunxi exhaled a breath on the petals in her hand, and the petals flew lightly into the air and didn't know where to go, she watched the petals go away, and said sadly: "My mother likes pear blossoms, but I prefer plum blossoms, pear blossoms are not good, there is always a word in it, it is a bad thing, but my mother loves it, and finally separated from my father." ”

Wang Xing heard the sadness in her words, regretted that he shouldn't have asked more, and deliberately diverged and said: "My mother also likes to play with flowers and plants, I was familiar with flowers and plants when I was a child, I liked orchids the most, and I also raised rabbits, pigeons, parrots, and turtles, and nailed cabinets, tables, and chairs by myself. At that time, I couldn't be idle at all, and I hated to dismantle and reassemble everything at home, but my mother didn't worry about it. Later, when I went to the north, I ate a lot of sand, and these leisure pleasures were put aside. ”

He happily told interesting stories about his youth, and Chu Yunxi also heard the amusement, and said with a smile: "You are really an interesting person." Unlike those rich idlers who are kept at home, they can't carry their shoulders, they can't lift their hands, their limbs are not diligent, and they don't divide their grains. ”

Wang Xing smiled modestly and said deliberately: "I can't compare to those rich and noble sons in Chang'an City who can fight against the wind and snow, and chant poetry. ”

Chu Yunxi retorted: "You are too arrogant, what the imperial court needs is a pillar of hard work like you, not those incompetent Zhao Kuo and Ma Jian who are vegetarian corpses." After this difficult journey, she has almost dispelled her concerns about his character.

Hearing her praise, he was very happy, and his sincerity was finally recognized by her, but he sighed unconsciously: "It's a pity that people who do things are sometimes not likable." ”

Chu Yunxi held the reins tightly, shook his head slightly, and said: "The family and the country are all over the world, if the world is dead, the family and the country are safe, how can one person's preference withstand the torrent of history." ”

Wang Xing was stunned, and his gaze towards her showed a little more admiration, and he exclaimed: "The girl is so knowledgeable. ”

She indifferently accepted his amazed gaze, and said in a low voice: "Reading history, don't dare to make a mistake." As he spoke, she looked a little tired, and he looked up at the sky, and it was already past noon, when he stopped the reins, and the flame spun in circles, and leaped in front of her, the sun beating on his face, but the brilliance was inferior to his smile.

Probably tired, she was a little dizzy, he helped her dismount, glanced forward and said, "I haven't eaten even after patronizing the road, I'm hungry, let's find a place to settle down first." ”

As soon as Chu Yunxi landed, his heart felt like he had been punched, and he suddenly felt panicked and frightened, and Wang Xing could also feel her arm trembling in his hand.

This is the last stop, if she can't find any trace of Bai Biao, she really doesn't know what terrible things will happen, months of worry and fear instantly swelled, pressed between her belly, like about to burst her belly, squeezing all the internal organs in pain.

She crossed her waist as if she was running, and her brows were furrowed. Seeing that her steps were weak, Wang Xing immediately helped her to sit under the tree next to her, and she took a deep breath, and her heart was flustered and could not breathe.

He rubbed her back and asked worriedly, "Are you so uncomfortable, do you want to go and see the doctor?" ”

Chu Yunxi coughed lightly, waved his hand and said, "It's okay." ”

Wang Xing rested with her for a while, helped her walk for a while, and turned into Suzaku Street, the center of which is the most famous observation tower in Chang'an City.

The viewing building is six floors high, the red wall vermilion pillar, carved and painted, the heavy eaves and black tiles, the ridge is curled in the air, the couplet plaque at the door is gilded, and it has the broad and unique place of the northern building.

Chu Yunxi has naturally heard of the reputation of this building, and it is even more favored by the scholars who are rushing to take the exam.

Wang Xing only ordered a room on the fourth floor to be expensive, Chu Yunxi didn't want him to advance money, but he didn't have enough money, so he had to change places to live. He felt that although this place was expensive, it was beautiful and comfortable, and she had suffered a lot along the way, and he did not want her to be wronged again, so he insisted that she live here.

After sending her upstairs, the next person sent a few dishes and two steamed buns, Chu Yunxi couldn't help but move the chopsticks when he smelled the aroma of rice, Wang Xing saw that she had eaten two bites before he said with confidence: "You eat first, I'll go home, and I'll come back to you later." ”

Chu Yunxi pushed the bun in front of him and said, "You better eat it first and then go back." ”

Wang Xing stared at her and laughed, Chu Yunxi was stunned for a moment, his smile was like a pink cherry blossom covering the valley, like a spring day melting ice and snow, as long as he looked at you, you could feel a trace of warmth. She finally couldn't help but laugh and nodded.

Wang Xing quickly went downstairs, went out and drove home, only to find that his mother had not yet entered the door, he re-trimmed his appearance as quickly as possible, and after grooming, he picked out a clean and proper dress to change into. He looked in the mirror for a long time, and suddenly smiled embarrassedly.

He is not a person who pays special attention to food and clothing, but he always unconsciously cares about his words and deeds in front of her, and always hopes that he will face her in the best and most perfect state. Therefore, he was never timid in the face of the enemy, but he did not expect that one day he would be inexplicably nervous, panicked, and even a little breathless excited because of a girl.

After he had finished tidying up, he waited in the house for a while, but the next man came to report that his wife had just entered the city, and he estimated that his mother would not be able to enter the house for about an hour and a half. It was too long for him, and he couldn't contain his heart, so he still raised his legs and walked out of the house.

Another reason he chose the Belvedere was that it was close to their mansion, but he could ride a horse with half a cup of tea. He ran upstairs in three steps and two steps, and came to a sudden stop at the door. He straightened the hem of his belt over and over before he mustered up the courage to push the door, but when his hand touched the door, he heard someone talking inside, and he stopped alertly.

Qing Ulva, who had been silent, suddenly burst out with a sentence; "Master, you can't go."

Chu Yunxi looked at her helplessly, sighed deeply, and said dejectedly: "Then what do you want me to do, do you have any other better ideas, I am already desperate." ”

Qing Chun's beautiful eyes were full of tears, and she roared as if she had been suppressed for a long time and suddenly erupted: "Master, wake up, after so many years, can't you let go of your father-daughter relationship with him?" What tiger poison doesn't eat children, look at me. I was sold by my own father, and when my mother was still alive, he treated her like a pig and dog, beating and scolding her endlessly. Think of Miss Lin's father, who left a pair of children to suffer outside, and his wife married someone else before the mourning period. There are so many ruthless parents in this world, you and my father are not the same except for their different backgrounds, they only care about giving birth, no matter how they raise, just care about their own happiness, if they give birth to a son, they can still be pampered for a while, if they give birth to a daughter, or beat, or sell, or kill, we are born as daughters is a great sin, even if we marry into others, we will be enslaved and abused. Pity many good daughters, after being defiled by these beasts, they also become like ghosts, and after becoming mothers-in-law, they torture their daughters-in-law even more. Generation after generation, endless abyss of suffering. It is because you and your wife think of the grace of childbirth and nurturing that husband and wife often fall into the cage. He clearly set a trap to trap you this time, he will definitely not show mercy, Miss, you will fall into the net like a lady. ”

Chu Yunxi sat down dejectedly and sighed: "So I can only watch the lives of my mother and uncle ignore them, and only care about my own life." ”

Qing Chun didn't answer, just sobbed silently, she knew that this was the best outcome, and if Madame was there, she would definitely hope that her daughter would be alive.

But Chu Yunxi found it difficult to agree, for her, every loss of her relatives was a blow that was worse than death, if she saw her relatives dying and did not save her, but lived reluctantly, remorse and self-blame alone could torture her to death. What's more, what does it mean for a person to be abandoned by the world and end up living for the sake of living? She would rather die with her loved ones than live alone like the walking dead.

Qing Chun saw the determination in her eyes, and her heart wrenched with resentment, their family always regarded love and righteousness as compared to Qingtian, which was about a death hole that they could not overcome in this life.

She is much more resolute and resolute, because she has seen the ugliness of the world, and her heart is gradually frozen. She thought she was coldly calculating the results, but she couldn't stop the fragile flow of tears on her face.

Wang Xing heard Chu Yunxi's words outside the door with pity and pain, and when the room was quiet, he knocked lightly on the door.

When he entered the house, he thought that there was only the girl who had just spoken in the room, but he did not expect that there were two other people in the room.

The eyes of the four of them were red with tears, and the two girls who were originally sitting wiped their tears when they saw him enter the room, and stood up with a little confusion. The other girl in green hung her head silently, as if she was in a daze.

Wang Xing looked at the three of them in turn, his gaze circled and fell back to Chu Yunxi's face, and said with a smile: "Who are these three girls?" ”

Chu Yunxi saw that he had just cleaned up a little, and immediately looked radiant, like a pearl like jade, his face was slightly hot, and he introduced in a little panic: "Oh, although the three of them are the maids of our family, they are like sisters to me, this is Qingxu, this is Luyan, and this is Biyin." ”

Lu Yan looks at him with outstanding appearance, and he must have a good background. The three of them were just maids, but he saluted one by one, very respectful, obviously the family education is very good, and he is not contemptuous, and he immediately won her favor.

Bi Yin only felt that he and the master were really a good match, and couldn't help but smile and secretly glanced at Lu Yan. Lu Yan also felt good and was overjoyed.

Qing Chun glanced at him indifferently, without showing a hint of a smile. Chu Yunxi caught a glimpse of Lu Yan and Bi Yin's smiling appearance, and was really embarrassed in his heart, so he turned his face and introduced him: "This is Wang ......."

He interrupted her and said, "It seems that you have forgotten me. "I didn't tell you my real name because I wanted you to recognize me. Forget it, offended, Wang Xing is not my real name, and I will give ......"

Chu Yunxi's mind turned for a moment, and he blurted out: "Shi Jiaheng? ”

Shi Jiaheng was pleasantly surprised: "You still remember." ”

Chu Yunxi stared at his face carefully, although he had grown up, he had not taken off his youthful appearance, she vaguely remembered some things back then, although she couldn't remember it completely, but she still had some impressions of his name and appearance.

Now he figured out the cause and effect, and it was strange that when the two of them first met, he always stared at her with a strange look on his face, thinking that he must have seen the person who died in the fire actually come back from the dead, and he couldn't believe it.

She smiled and said, "I just remembered." This is the son of General Schreesch, I remember correctly. Seeing him bowing her head, she immediately bowed down and apologized, "My little sister has offended a lot before, I hope I want to invite Haihan." ”

Shi Jiaheng stretched out his hand to help: "It's me who hid it first, and the fault is still mine." ”

Lu Yan, who has always been thoughtful, took advantage of the two to speak, had already set up the chairs, the tea was ready, Shi Jiaheng invited everyone to take a seat, Lu Yan and the three did not move, he also stood up, and the three of them sat silently in the outer circle of the two.

Shi Jiaheng was very curious about her experience, and at this moment she could finally ask frankly without any concern: "I want to dare to ask, I went to Chu Mansion to inquire at that time, and they said that you died in the fire, so why did you appear in Shunan again?" ”

Chu Yunxi said very vaguely: "My mother and I escaped from the fire, and as for other things, even I can't figure it out, in fact, there are many things I don't understand." ”

Shi Jiaheng thought he was worried, but in fact, he didn't know that what she said was the truth.

He hesitated for a moment and then asked, "I just heard that you seem to be arguing because you are going to the Prime Minister's Mansion, I don't know why?" ”

At this point, the worst outcome is that she will die with her mother, and even if he has other plans, what can he destroy. As soon as she thought of this, she was no longer afraid, and told him in detail what happened, it turned out that Chu Yunxi had not been long after that time, and Bai Qiao, who was not at ease, also went north to Chang'an under the protection of the three girls. Chu Yunxi was sick on the road and was delayed for a long time, and he was not on the same road as them, so he missed it again and again, and finally Bai Qiao and the others entered Chang'an before her.

After entering the city, the four of them had no clue, and after two or three days, Bai Qiao actually entered the prime minister's mansion without telling the three of them. They were looking for her and wanted to report to the official that they saw Zhang Bang's notice, claiming that the prime minister had caught Bai Qiao, the culprit of the arson in the Prime Minister's Mansion a few years ago, and was ready to be executed on a certain day to give an explanation to the unjust souls affected by the fire. Chu Yunxi was attracted by the sound of the post on the street, and the four of them reunited.

Shi Jiaheng was also very strange, but when she heard her say that Bai Qiao was in a half-dead state after returning to Shunan, it was indeed possible that she was delirious, and guessed: "Maybe that fire is really Ling Ci's release?" ”

Chu Yunxi knew what he meant, and firmly denied it: "Impossible. My mother is just overly sad, and she is not going to set fire to her, could it be that she will burn me to death? Besides, if she really wanted to kill herself, why did she ask her uncle to pick us up? ”

"Then someone deliberately framed him?" Shi Jiaheng continued.

Chu Yunxi muttered blankly: "I don't know." ”

Shi Jiaheng reminded Lu Yan with a word, and she said excitedly: "Could it be the eldest lady?" Do you remember, she wanted to dislike Madame Miss, it was to teach you a lesson, and she ordered us to encourage you to go out without permission, and you were seriously injured, and you have been lying for months, and your body has not been well yet. ”

Biyin also nodded and said, "The eldest lady just can't see us well, and she has given us a lot of stumbling blocks in those years." ”

Chu Yunxi still said gloomily: "Maybe, after all, it is speculation, there is neither any evidence nor physical evidence." ”

"There's another way." Chu Yunxi saw that everyone's faces were heavy, so he pretended to smile easily, "I will go to testify, whether the Prime Minister believes it or not, whatever he does, as long as he is willing to let go of his uncle and mother, it is a big deal for me to confess." ”

Shi Jiaheng was a little puzzled, and always felt that this matter was too weird, and Cheng was too ruthless to his wife and daughter. He grew up in a harmonious family, his parents and brothers have always loved each other, and although he has heard of many infighting in complicated families, this incident still makes him feel cold.

He thought she was talking angrily, and hurriedly reassured: "Don't worry, don't rush to the doctor." Let me figure it out, it's getting late, I'll call for some more food. Please allow me to say goodbye for a while, and today my mother is home, I will go back to pick her up and bring her into the house, and then come back after telling her, and we will have a good discussion. ”

But he didn't expect this to happen, Chu Yunxi really verified that her words were not impulsive, and when he came back, Lu Yan cried and told him that Chu Yunxi was gone, and what the calm Qing Chun had been worried about still happened, and she also understood Chu Yunxi's mood more and more, the despair of being powerless to prevent the disaster from falling on her loved ones.
