Three miles away from Tokyo, there is a grass pavilion called the Rain Pavilion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info is designed for pedestrians passing by to rest and shelter from the rain.

The pavilion is very simple, two beams are put on top of the four pillars, and then the straw is laid to become a pavilion. In the center of the pavilion is a stone table, as well as four stone chairs in four directions.

In the distance, a blue-gray carriage approached and stopped about ten feet from the pavilion. As soon as the curtain was lifted, Sikong Jun was dressed in white, the jade official tied his hair, holding an oil-paper umbrella with plum blossom prints, strolling in the drizzle, and slowly walking towards the people who were waiting in the pavilion.

Entering the pavilion, he took the umbrella, looked at the friend he hadn't seen for a long time, and said with a smile: "Come so early? ”

The person who was waiting in the pavilion early was also a son, in his twenties, dressed in pale green clothes and corset his waist, and a white jade pendant around his waist matched with the pale green clothes, blending in with the vibrant scenery around him. Delicate facial features, with a pair of evil peach blossom eyes, like a noble son on the top, his eyes are empty, and he is arrogant.

"Wuyan Mountain is not close to here, and I have just arrived. Have a seat! ”

Sikong sat down according to his wishes and said, "You are really bold, you actually live on Wuyan Mountain, aren't you afraid that the one will find out?" ”

Ye Tian smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm afraid he's busy now, where can he be so far away." ”

"The kid is also on the mountain?"

"Not really, I wouldn't dare take the risk."

Sikong rested the umbrella in his hand at the foot of the stone table, and the water droplets flowed down the wooden handle, forming a sinuous curve on the clean bluestone floor. He straightened the hem of his clothes and said, "Do you know about the affairs of Jingli?" ”

Yetian nodded and said, "I received the flying pigeon message, so I rushed over." What is the situation in the palace now? ”

"Not too optimistic. This time, it wasn't just a simple concubine being killed. Above the court, it has now reached a white-hot time, and the emperor's trip to weaken the power of the world has reached the most critical moment, and it will affect the whole body. This time, Moyu is really in a big problem. ”

"What is the emperor's attitude?"

Sikong remembered the scene when the emperor summoned him to the palace this morning, he did not clearly say how to deal with the two imperial concubines Gui and Xian, but just asked the Criminal Department to investigate the case first, and let Yun Changfeng seal the Jade Immortal Palace, Lanyue Palace, Ciming Palace, for this murder case, the emperor didn't seem to care at all.

"I think the emperor should still be waiting! He wanted to see who would be the first to jump out. ”

The night sky is not in Beijing, so naturally I don't know what the situation is in Tokyo. "He's still the same as before, cold-blooded, ruthless, and unfathomable."

Sikong didn't answer him, the emperor was no longer the king of the night sky, he could naturally say so. But he himself is still an official in the court, and he can't say that he is not behind the monarch's back. Yetian continued: "In your opinion, who will kill this person? Who does the emperor want to carry this black cauldron? ”

"It's not clear, but I don't think it's the emperor. If the person was killed by the emperor, then he would directly put Moyu in prison and the people of the Ji family in prison. But until now, he hasn't moved Moyu, and he hasn't moved anyone from the Ji family, so I don't know what he's waiting for? Or is he plotting something? ”

Yetian stood up, looked at the muddy path outside the pavilion, and suddenly remembered that Moyu hated such a rainy day the most. It's dripping, endless, and annoying. "If I had picked her up earlier, maybe there wouldn't have been so many things."

"The emperor is still looking for the child on a large scale, and you are forced to leave. Zhong Ting is not in Beijing, Chen Xuan is not here, and the two people who can help her the most are gone, I don't know how she will escape this catastrophe? ”

The rain kept falling like this, and I don't know when it was going to be a head. This year's spring rain seems to have come a little earlier than in previous years, and it is also more violent than in previous years.

---------------------

In the Jade Immortal Palace.

Mo Yu lay on the couch, looking at the drizzle like needle and thread outside the window, I don't know why, but my heart is not as irritable as before. In the past, she always hated the rainy season, it was wet everywhere, even the clothes and bedding were wet, and he didn't like to walk in such a rainy day, always covered in mud.

Outside the window, the fragrance of flowers wafted in, and it was a few Yueji plants that wanted to be moved back from the Imperial Garden. She said that there should be flowers in the spring, and there were no flowers in the Jade Immortal Palace, which was really a little deserted, so she moved back despite the opposition of her master. Originally, it was placed in the yard, but when it rained, she moved it under the window, and the petals were still stained with a little raindrops, which were crystal clear.

Wet flowers spring rain like beads crying, weeping beads like rain spring flowers wet.

The sound of dripping and the smell of flowers are actually quite good. Quiet and comfortable, making people sleepy.

Footsteps sounded in the room, and Mo Yu didn't look back, knowing who it was. "Coming?"

"Niangniang is looking for Ah Qiang, but what's the matter?"

"Let's move a stool and sit on it, I don't have anything else to do with you, I just want to chat."

Ah Qiang couldn't grasp the master's thoughts, and now that there was a commotion outside, why was she still lying here like a person who was fine? "How can the mother still sit still?"

"What if I can't sit still, I can't even get out of the door now."

Ah Qiang Gu moved a chair over and sat down, and also looked at the magpies that occasionally flew by outside the window, and said, "I don't know how Biyue is now?" ”

became a murderer and went to prison again, what else can I do? Even if you don't die, you must suffer. I don't know what kind of confession those people will give her to draw a prisoner, and whether she will be able to survive it?

"Before, when you were in the mountains, you would be lazy every season. Let you go and fetch a basin of water, and you say that the road is all mud, and no one wants to go out. There is always a brazier in the house, and the delicious and humid food in the house is removed, and the life is more comfortable than that of me, the master. In the summer, when you feel too hot, you often run to sleep under the shade of the trees, and you sleep all day, and you can't find anyone. ”

Cuong remembered those carefree times and couldn't help but sigh. "Niang Niang is the best master in the world, and she never cares about what we do. At first, we thought that Niangniang was a soft persimmon, which was very easy to pinch. Hehe, now I know that Niangniang just doesn't want to care about us, if you really care, we will definitely be miserable. ”

"It was the happiest time of my life." It's a pity that she didn't meet a man who really loved her in her best time. "The azaleas on Wuyan Mountain should be about to bloom! I really want to watch it again, but I'm afraid I won't have a chance. ”

"Don't worry, I've already sent a pigeon to my master, and he will come to save you soon."

Mo Yu just looked at the small window in front of her, which was very small, and the sky she could see was also very small. Like a frog at the bottom of a well, all it can see is the sky the size of the wellhead. But in fact, this sky is so big and wide that a person cannot see it all in his life.

She turned her head and said, "Ah Qiang, if you have a girl you like, tell her, and then treat her well, do everything that makes her happy, don't care about other things, and don't think about whether the result is good or bad." If you can't see it, you have to grasp it, and cherish what you stand in front of, because if you don't cherish it, maybe they will disappear in the next second, and you don't even know how they disappeared. ”

"Mother, you ......"

"Hehe, Biyue is a good girl."

Ah Qiang grabbed his fingers a little nervously and said, "Biyue, Biyue is very good, she is a good girl." ”

Mo Yu looked at the beams on the roof, where the carvings were golden and ethereal. "You see, you didn't dare to tell her you liked her because of your fear. Overnight, you won't even have a chance to confess to her. In life, there are many accidents, some accidents can be made up, and some accidents can only become a lifetime of regrets. ”

Just like her and Yetian, Yetian has too many concerns. If he took her away directly that night, why would there be so many rights and wrongs now. Chai Rong said that she can't leave the palace one step more in this life, and I don't know if it will really be the case? Mo Yu continued: "Tell your people, don't act rashly. It's not as simple as you think, just stay honest. The emperor's spirit and attention are highly tense now, and he will be very sensitive, once he finds out what is wrong, he will inevitably track it down, if he knows that there is such a force hidden in this palace, your master will be finished. ”

"But mother, what are you going to do?"

"I have my own arrangements, and I'll tell you when I need you. You are not allowed to act without my command, not even your master, lest you disturb my plans. ”

"Cuong knows."

As he was talking, there was a sound of soft footsteps outside, and Mingzhu knew that Tian'er had returned. Sure enough, as soon as the curtain was lifted, Tian'er's figure appeared in front of her. She had just returned from outside, her shoes and skirt were a little wet, and she was still exuding a cold air from her body.

"Niangniang, are you looking for me?"

Mingzhu turned his head and instructed Ah Qiang on the side: "You go down first, Xiangrong may not be in a good mood, you go to comfort and comfort her, she listens to you very much." ”

"Yes."

Tian'er watched Qiang's father-in-law go out, and was puzzled. Mingzhu explained: "I feel a little bored, so I asked him to chat." But you, I thought, you won't be back today! ”

"Niangniang is my master, how can I not come back."

Mo Yu really wanted to say, your master is the emperor and not me, but it's better to think about it. What's the use of these quick tongues now? "What did the emperor ask you to send to me?"

Tian'er walked to the couch and stood still, looked at the master on the couch, and said softly: "The emperor said that he believes in Niangniang, you can get out of the predicament by yourself." ”

Hehe. This is really the most ruthless words in the world, a man asked a woman to block the sword light and sword shadow for him, poisonous and cold arrows. A husband, regardless of his wife's life or death, allows others to frame and kill at will. Is there anyone in the world who is more cold-blooded than him? Is there a more pitiful woman in the world than her?

"It's raining, and the mud is deep. This time, I didn't want to struggle anymore, I was too tired. ”

"Niangniang, the emperor said, even if you don't do it for yourself, you have to do it for the virtuous concubine Niangniang, for the second young master Ji, and for the prince Sikong."

Such a blatant threat turned out to be what a husband did to his wife. Could it be that in this Zhou country, in this Tokyo city, in this imperial palace, people live like this? In the desire for power, you fight for each other, fight hard to break your head, use all means, calculate all the people, and call it for the people of the world, but in fact it is just a game between these rulers.

He calculated that she was a person of love and righteousness, and would never implicate the innocent. What's more, Zhong Ting and Sikong are rare confidants in her life, and she cherishes them as her life. Mo Yu slowly got up and walked under the windowsill to look at the wet floor in the courtyard.

"Poor Hongyan always has a thin life, and he is the most ruthless Wang family. Winter goes and spring comes again, and when is the return date? ”

Tian Er lowered her head a little ashamedly, she was just a lowly palace maid, and she couldn't go against the master's will. When she heard the emperor tell her like this in the Wende Palace, she also felt worthless for the concubine. The woman in the deep palace is already pathetic, and she has to be used by her husband like this. What about the concubine's intelligence and beauty, and how about gaining grace? Life is not as good as other unfavored masters in the palace, at least if they are not favored, they can spend the rest of their lives peacefully.

Mo Yu didn't turn his head, and said softly: "You go back to the Qianwen Palace!" I am not your master, don't come to the Jade Immortal Palace in the future. I know I shouldn't be angry with you, but when I see you, my heart aches. ”

Tian'er looked at his master's back in disbelief, and suddenly knelt directly on the ground with a "bang", and begged: "Niangniang, Tian'er beg, don't drive me away, I will definitely serve Niangniang more wholeheartedly in the future, please don't drive me away." ”

"If you don't leave, how can I be worthy of Biyue?" Mo Yu turned around, looked condescendingly at the top of her head, and said, "In my life, I have been hovering on the edge of life and death countless times. Every time I was pushed to the precipice, it was not my enemy, but the person I trusted and was closest to me. ”

"Niangniang, Tian'er can't help himself, and this matter is beyond the emperor's expectations, he didn't want to ......"

"That's enough." Mo Yu shouted softly: "If you do it, you will do it, and you don't need to shirk it." Go back and tell Chai Rong that if Biyue has three long and two short, I won't do anything. Seeing Tian'er's shocked expression, she continued: "Since he has already started the chess game, let him take every move." ”

Since he dared to bet on what she cared about the most, he had to be able to afford it.

-------------------------

Until the evening, the rain did not stop, always maintaining its small raindrops, which were sprinkled on people's faces, which was fresh and comfortable.

Night replaced day, and palace lamps were lit in all palaces, and delicate palace lamps hung under the eaves, and with the spring breeze swaying, the candles also swayed, reflecting the vague shadows on the floor.

The Yulin Army was conscientious, and even on a rainy day, he still stood there motionless, with a expressionless face. Although there was a little complaint in his heart, who made them not the master, but just the guards who protected the master. Even their own commanders patrol back and forth in the rain, and their subordinates dare not complain.

At the gate of the Jade Immortal Palace, the cold wind suddenly rose, and on the ground full of stagnant water, a figure flew by, and the sharp-eyed guards found it and immediately shouted: "What person?" ”

Yun Changfeng heard the voice and hurriedly ran over and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The cheering guard said, "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, there seems to be a figure flashing just now." ”

"In which direction?"

The guard pointed ahead and said, "She's going that way." ”

Yun Changfeng immediately ordered: "You guard the Jade Immortal Palace, don't let the noble concubine be frightened, I'll take someone to take a look." ”

"Yes."

Following the direction pointed by the guard, Yun Changfeng took two guards over to check, and after half a stick of incense, he turned back, saying that he didn't see anyone, probably because the guard was wrong! The guard didn't think much about it, standing in the rain all day, it was possible that he was sick and hallucinating. (To be continued.) )
