Chapter Twenty-Seven: Turning the Tide
In the darkness, a crimson stained her face, and the atmosphere spread in the crisp sound of the dripping water droplets falling to the ground. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Qingge's nervous throat became dry, and a heart was raised, as if there was a faint ...... Expect.
"How do you want me to express it?" Her voice was as soft as a mosquito.
"Come to Jixue Courtyard and listen to my dispatch." Mengbai said.
"Okay." She agreed.
"Don't ask why?" There was a slight smile in Mengbai's tone.
"Don't ask." This time she didn't think about it carefully, analyzing the pros and cons, and her intuition prompted her to say yes, and she breathed a long sigh of relief in her heartโat last she didn't have to run away. It's just that......
"You...... Why do this to me? She couldn't help but ask the question that had been haunting her mind. There are some trance figures in her memory fragments, which belong to the person she once loved. Although she couldn't spell out the full picture, she was pretty sure that the man was not Yumehaku, but the person she had woken up to and kissed her tenderly in the stone chamber.
"You don't have to know. Once you know that, I'm gone. โ
"Okay, I don't want you to leave yet." Qingge grinned. Sure enough, there was no answer.

Qingge returned the same way and walked out of the prison. As for Mengbai, it always comes and goes without a trace. Waiting outside the door for a long time, staring at her tightly, "So long? โ
"You don't have a time limit." Qingge smiled and raised her eyebrows. Looking at the quiet blue sky above the night, there were a few kites floating quietly in the distance, and I was in a good mood.
"It's so obvious."
"What?"
"Nod your head when you use it, and discard it if you don't use it." Su Ye seemed to be in a good mood, and actually complained to her like a little resentful woman.
"That's ...... Is it obvious? Qingge smiled awkwardly.
"Hmm."
"I'm sorry, but I'll pay more attention in the future." The light song made a military salute in a chic manner. Only then did he remember that he didn't understand her military salute in the first place. Sure enough, his eyes were undulating, and his lips were smiling.
"You should smile more, it looks good when you laugh." As soon as Qingge was kindly reminded, Su Ye immediately returned to his face full of frost.

Qingge lay on his soft bed, rolling happily. Happiness came too suddenly.
"Princess, are you going to take a nap in broad daylight? I haven't had lunch yet. Miao Ling was stunned.
"It's okay, I just want to get out of ......" Miao Ling sighed, went out, and was no longer surprised by the inexplicable behavior of his master.
In addition to rolling on the bed, after finishing lunch, Qingge drove everyone to the attic and rolled on the grass in the yard with Xiaobai for most of the day. It wasn't until he was covered in mud and panting that he fell asleep with Xiaobai.
Everyone's hearts gradually let go, thinking that Qingge had accepted the reality of marrying Cui Dai. They all went downstairs gently and went to work on their own. Now everyone's acceptance of Xiaobai has reached, Xiaobai quietly moves around when he sleeps, and Xiaobai quickly hides after waking up. It makes Qingge feel very gratified.

The cloud sideburns are loose, and the head is equipped with a pearl hairpin with a smooth flow. Dressed in a soft white light gauze wide swing robe, without any colors or belts, lazy and casual, clean and pure, like a little white cat waking up in the sun.
Qingge looked at himself in the mirror, and subconsciously picked this plain clothes, which seemed to be ...... Dream White's style.
Shu Tong saw that the princess had been dressed up in front of the mirror for a long time today, and there must be something important, so he reminded: "The princess wants to apply some pink rouge?" Although this body is plain and elegant, it is too bland. Saying that, he brought out the congratulatory gifts sent by the concubines and concubines a few days ago.
Light Gehei doesn't like to dress up, but today he nodded for the first time. This body is much younger and more immature than in its previous life. When she first arrived, she looked at her plump cheeks full of collagen, and she was overjoyed.
It's just recently that she began to unconsciously compare herself with her concubine. Concubine Li is only a year older than her, but the style of her gestures is beyond her reach. Her sensitive emotions only stem from subtle psychological changes that she has not even noticed.
Shutong picked out a pair of peach blossom rouge sent by Concubine Niangniang. The peach-pink rouge melted in the water, and only swept a thin layer on Qingge's cheekbones, and his expression was dyed with a layer of shyness. Put the pale pink rouge on the lips a little more. The whole person instantly changed from a daisy by the mountain stream to a fresh peach blossom standing with the wind under the warm March sun. The expression seemed to have just been whispered to her by a beloved, ashamed and happy.
Miao Ling pushed the door in, and when she saw Qingge, she couldn't help but be stunned, "Princess...... It's also so beautiful. Even Miao Ling blushed when she saw it. โ
Qingge smiled with satisfaction and dropped a sentence: "I'll go out for a walk, don't follow." Lifted his leg and stepped out the door.
"Is the princess going to have a lover?" Miao Ling whispered behind her back, and was covered by Shu Tong as soon as she finished speaking.
Qingge walked very slowly, thinking about what to say as he went. He told me to go. Can she understand that this is the first time that Monbaku has invited her into his life?
She didn't know what she was expecting. The threads in my mind are like the catkins fluttering in the sky, chaotic and complex. She shook her head, laughed for a while, browled for a while, and rubbed for a quarter of an hour before she walked to the courtyard of the concubine.
The subordinates of Jixue Courtyard were not surprised to see Qingge, saluted, and dispersed. I saw Mengbai alone under a banyan tree in the courtyard, with a colorful, cloud-like bird in his hand, white as jade fingers caressing its pale blue neck, the bird closed its eyes, very useful, from time to time tilted its head on his fingertips.
"Here we are." Mengbai smiled at the corner of his mouth, but did not raise his head and said.
"Hmm." Qingge looked around, but didn't see the figure of Concubine Li all the way.
"Concubine Li Niangniang accompanied the queen to enjoy the flowers." Mengbai noticed her movements and explained.
"Oh." Qingge suddenly became nervous, did Concubine Li deliberately avoid them, or did Mengbai take advantage of Concubine Li's absence to ask her over? How can there be a feeling of weakness.
"Come with me." Mengbai patted the bird's head and waved it into the air. The flaming birds flicked their wings and soon disappeared across the rooftops.
Mengbai led the light song through the main house of Jixue Courtyard, through a courtyard full of jasmine flowers, and across a small wooden bridge. There's nothing wrong with that. There is a clear and thin stream in this courtyard, and a quaint wooden arch bridge stands across the stream. Cross the wooden bridge and follow a bluestone path surrounded by cold bamboos to a bamboo house. Although the trail is not long, it has several twists and turns, cleverly hiding the whole bamboo house in the verdant bamboo forest.
This is Mengbai's residence. It's all bamboo, and it's only bamboo. Hidden in the quiet cold bamboo forest is a blue bamboo hut. Simple and pure.
How could a eunuch have such an elegant but eye-catching residence in the courtyard of the concubine?
"Who the hell are you?" Qingge was surprised.
