The sunset sinks in the west, the twilight cage city, and the Taifu water family.

The red walls and green tiles are wrapped with red silk, floating in the night breeze. The elegantly furnished courtyard is full of people who come to celebrate the birthday and listen to the play. A courtyard is separated by an elaborate screen, with the male guests on the left side of the courtyard and the female dependents on the inside of the courtyard.

Behind the makeshift stage is a delicate hut dedicated to the Sakuraku make-up. After all, the first-class musicians of the imperial court are not something that ordinary people can invite. Now that you have the face to be invited, of course, this gift is also indispensable.

"What day is today, the drunken girl actually deigned to go out of the house to sing with him?" The parrot raised his lips and smiled, and put the beaded flowers into Yuxi's long braid.

In the bronze mirror, a girl with heavy makeup is wearing light eyebrows, and her eyes are pure. Suddenly, he smiled, enchanting and red.

Brother Parrot was stunned for a moment, and the hand holding her black silk paused, and the girl didn't feel why, turned her head and smiled, "What's wrong?" Brother still said that he was up and down? ”

After a little hesitation, Brother Parrot changed his words and said, "It's time to hand over last month's money, and I'll take the time to deliver it to the house in the next few days." After that, Brother Parrot shook his head slightly, shaking his thoughts, the young figure plotting under the lamp, the figure of the fire tree and silver flower in the juggling field, the figure of the tiger, the figure outside the bamboo chess pavilion, the figure of the flying fairy outside the sky, more and more clear. He has no sister, she is him, the sister who wants to protect the most.

"Hmm. It's time to turn it in. Yu Xi's voice was slightly joyful, coming from the long water sleeve. Looking at the mirror, she was obviously very satisfied with her makeup.

The stage was clanging, sonorous, and the music sounded.

Yu Xi stretched out his head and said happily, "It's started?" ”

Brother Parrot smiled, "Go ahead, I promise you, go through the motions on stage." ”

Yuxi lightly stretched her water sleeves, looked back and smiled, "Brother, do you think it's still possible?" ”

Brother Parrot nodded approvingly.

Half-covering the jade face, everyone in the audience looked up, only to see a delicate girl on the stage, fluttering in the wind, the colorful skirt was smart, and the eyes were circulating, but she had not seen her face clearly, but she had already stepped down. Everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, so smart

A pair of eyes, such a light figure. was about to hook her neck to see if she would come up and play again. I only heard the sound of singing coming from the backstage, like flying flowers around the tree, like butterflies falling on the fingertips.

Separated by a heavy bead curtain and several lights, there is a person standing on the stage, a long shirt in green clothes, a little gentle.

The people in the courtyard raised their heads one after another, and there were even maids and ladies in the courtyard, who took silk handkerchiefs to half-cover their cheeks, as if they were ashamed and wanted to cover them.

Yu Xi smiled, quietly raised the curtain on the side, and peeked in, only to see that the right side of the courtyard was almost full of female dependents. There are only two men, one in his forties, who is thin and thin, and they are the legendary water lords. On the other side, it's a young man. He, sitting beside the old lady, peeling the fruit, looks extremely delicate, and half of his side face is like a knife and a pen, extremely distinct. Yu Xi pursed her lips and smiled, and then looked at the old lady, her facial features were particularly deep, not like ordinary women. I thought about it for a while, and smiled again.

Yu Xi peeked at the boy again, he just turned around, glanced at the countertop, and began to peel the fruit with his head down, carefully piled up the grains, and put them in the old lady's hand. The old lady bowed her head and smiled lovingly, not knowing what the two of them were saying.

The boy looked up again, and Yu Xi stared at him for a long time. Lowering his eyes, Yu Xi said in his heart, it was really not him.

A song is like a heavenly sound.

Yu Xi returned to the backstage, hung on a chair, closed her eyes, raised her head and hummed quietly, and when the song was over, she still felt unfinished.

The shadow of the light was a little ethereal, and the corners of someone's clothes behind him were slightly staggered, but they were close in an instant.

"Brother Parrot, when I'm free, I'll sing with you."

Brother Parrot stood with a smile, the folding fan in his hand opened and closed, and closed, "You can still sing?" What to sing? ”

"I wrote my own tune."

"What tune?"

"Originally, it was called looking for flowers and asking willows, but later, I changed it to a little daughter-in-law to go to the market."

"Then I really have to take a look."

Yuxi suddenly paused when she heard him, turned around to meet his gaze, soft and indifferent, but floated out of the door.

Yu Xi was stunned for a moment, Fang got up from the chair, and for a moment, stood behind him with his head down, looking honest and well-behaved.

A handsome boy was followed by two maids, each holding a tray in his hand, and the tray was covered with red silk. No need to guess, this is the bounty.

Qingxiu Gongzi said with a smile, "My lord is willing to dedicate a song for my grandmother's birthday, and I am grateful for it, and I hope to thank you."

Laugh. ”

The person who came was the only grandson of Mrs. Shui, and the water did not overflow.

Brother Parrot smiled slightly, but did not answer. Yuxi showed half of her head from behind, and said with a smile, "Are you the water boy of Shuifu?" ”

Qingxiu Gongzi recognized her at a glance, saw that she was not tall, and asked childishly, and smiled, "The only son of Shuifu is just below, little girl, what advice do you have?" ”

Yu Xi confirmed again in her heart, and hid her head behind the parrot brother again.

Brother Parrot sighed softly and said, "The little girl is naughty, don't blame the son." ”

The maid put the reward on the dressing table, and bowed back.

Thinking that the two often met in the palace, the water boy stopped chatting with Brother Parrot for a while. Yuxi listened to him talk elegantly, and when talking about national affairs, he only said a few words, and he could also feel that he was very majestic and majestic.

I couldn't help but poke my head out again and asked, "Water boy."

, dare to ask if you are a son of water? ”

Shui Wuyi smiled, "Little girl, do you know me?" ”

Yu Xi smiled, "The novel written by Childe, Shenzhou Jiuyu, happened to read it. ”

Shui Wuyi's eyes were slightly raised, and he laughed: "This is not a book that ordinary daughters like?" ”

Shenzhou Jiuyu is not so much a novel, but a detailed record of the biography of Yanxi's generation, except that the characters mentioned in the article are pseudonyms, and there is no obscurity. Yu Xi read this book, and vaguely knew that it was Yan at the beginning

Emperor Xi fell in love with a meticulous work with ulterior motives, and divided the land of Kyushu into four countries overnight. When I read this, I also shook my head and sighed. Although it has nothing to do with national events, there is still a lot of patriotism and Yuxi

One. This book was banned from circulation on the market two years ago, and it was rumored that Shao Bao was also dismissed at home.

Yu Xi grinned and said, "We sing little songs, and we read miscellaneous books." ”

Although Shui Wuyi is a scholar, his grandfather is a famous general in the world of Yanxi. When Kyushu was united, Xiyi came to attack, and it was his grandfather who led the army to reach the Xiyi Imperial City in a month and forced the Xiyi Empress

He personally surrendered ten cities, plus paid a princess, and promised not to commit crimes for generations. At that time, Xiyi also fought because of this, and the national strength was greatly damaged, and it was later renamed the current Yancai country. Shui Wuyi is the grandson of Princess Xiyi, and the blood flowing in his body has a slight belligerent color. I thought that after winning the championship in the imperial examination, I would be able to show my strength, and I didn't want to be punished by the emperor for writing at home. Although there is still a three-grade important post in name, the strategy is not allowed to be written, it is very depressing, and I hear someone talking about books today, and I have a different mood.

Shui Wuyi's eyes flashed, and he asked with a smile, "Little girl, what do you think of Shenzhou Jiuyu?" ”

When he asked, he didn't think of her as a girl ten years younger than him. Instead, I regarded her as a confidant, which is a strange feeling.

Yu Xi smiled and walked out from behind the parrot. walked to the table, lifted the red silk, looked at it, and seemed to be embarrassed to open the gift in person, and said with a smile, "The son's reward is so rich, next time I will go to the house."

There are still people listening to the play, I will definitely play well. ”

The words fell, and a surprise glint flashed in Shui Wu's eyes. Yu Xi lowered her head and touched the pair of gold and jade scenery cards, and her side face was still smiling. She didn't mention Shenzhou Jiuyu at all, he used to play in the novel

Insinuations by outsiders, caused by force, Kyushu must be unified. Her short ordinary words hide in them active rather than passive, ripe for time rather than quick success. Jun's eyes narrowed slightly, even more unexpectedly, an eleven or twelve-year-old

Little girl, how much do you think about yourself?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Brother Parrot smile faintly and said coldly: "Eleven, how can you be so out of proportion? It's not early, hurry up and pack your things, don't bother your son anymore. ”

This is not the first time I have seen Brother Parrot, and he has been smiling gently in the previous palace several times. It was the first time he had seen his face so cold, and Shui Wuyi was slightly surprised by the change in his expression.

Yu Xi's eyes lit up, covered with red silk, bowed and winked, "Don't blame the son." ”

Shui Wuyi smiled slightly, walked to the door, and looked back to see the little girl bending her eyebrows at him, blinking her eyes again, and smiling brightly.

Shui Wuyi suddenly felt relaxed, and he didn't feel that the moon was clear outside.

Brother Parrot snatched the gold and jade brand from her hand, knocked it twice, and threw it into the wooden box. Sighing lightly, "Eleven, what are you going to do when you come back?" ”

Yu Xi grabbed the braid in his hand and said with a mischievous smile, "Since Brother Parrot guessed it, he still asked me what to do?" ”

"If you want to see him, I can take you there, so why bother to verify it yourself?" Brother Parrot was a little displeased, this sour feeling was very uncomfortable.

He had experienced life and death with her, and he would always remember that when he was plotting under the lamp, he asked her if she failed, and if she failed, there would be any regrets in the world. It was the first time he had seen her cry, and although it was quickly erased, he still remembered it clearly

Yes, she was talking about her grandmother, uncle and brother Moqing. When she talked about Brother Mo Qing, she had a sweet smile on her face, and then, she said that even if he was the emperor, he didn't know that she was in trouble. If he had known, he would have come to her rescue. That firmness, that kind of aggressive brilliance that raised his eyebrows, pierced his heart, and it hurt slightly.

If his two younger sisters were still alive, would they be so determined, waiting for him to save them?

He was in the capital, trying his best to find them...... He remembered that night of separation, when they cried and called out to him, brother......

"I want to see him, naturally I don't want him to look for him, I want him to come to me." Yuxi smiled softly, and she was so determined with such interest.

Brother Parrot came back to his senses and sighed in his heart.

At this moment, she climbed his arm and smiled brightly, "Brother Parrot, do you have any plans for the future?" ”

"It's all about you being the master, I should ask you, what should you do with us?"

His words were as soft as peach blossoms.

Instantaneously, the two of them, their eyebrows and eyes crooked.

One is holding a brocade box, the other is carrying a box. One is clear and the other is eccentric. The two walked side by side, laughing and laughing, trampling how many stars and moonlight were broken.
