Li Ximu didn't dwell on this question anymore, and said her guess: "Is it that Princess Wanxu also heard about it and didn't want to marry her?" ”

When Xicui heard this, she sneered and said: "But isn't it, Gongzi happened to come back from Fengdu Country at that time, and I met her dressed as a man on the way, she said that she was going out to play, so she had to let us take her, and then she came back." ”

Li Ximu thought of the quarrel between the two of them just now, and felt that such a child, who had not grown up, had to face the heat and coldness of the world alone, which made her a little concerned.

Xicui saw Li Ximu's expression, and knew that she was sympathizing with the princess, and said lukewarmly at the moment: "Miss Li, don't look at her at a young age and feel sorry for her, for such a shameless woman is not worth it!" ”

Li Ximu was puzzled, and looked at Xicui with puzzled eyes.

"That princess still looks like a child who hasn't grown up, why do you have such a big prejudice against her?" Li Ximu felt that it was indeed pitiful for such a young girl to be burdened with such a heavy task.

Xicui didn't explain anymore, got up and picked up the packed food box: "You will know later, this person has different ideas, even if you say it now, you may not agree, if the pear girl is tired, she will see her in the middle and rest, Xicui will go down first, and you will come in a while, you can call me if you have something." ”

Li Ximu nodded in response, and Xicui helped to cover the door and leave.

There is a wind, a slight breeze.

Backyard, in the water pavilion. One piano, one incense case, one person. Yue Luxin was still wearing a red shirt, her hair was loosely curled, and she was leaning on the edge of the pavilion casually. The half-closed eyebrows and eyes reveal a trace of laziness and look very uncomfortable, and the delicate collarbone and delicate texture are revealed under the slightly open collar, rendering his informality and wanton frivolity.

Then. One person came to the water pavilion and called softly: "Childe." ”

"Huh?" The half-closed peach blossom eyes opened, reflecting the blue sky and clear water, which was particularly breathtaking.

The person who came was Uncle Lin just now, and he only heard him say, "I have asked Xicui to take care of that girl." ”

"Xicui?" The corners of Yue Luxin's lips were hooked, and she chuckled lowly: "Hehe, Uncle Lin is too worried, that girl was only saved by me on the road." ”

Uncle Lin frowned. His eyes were refined: "Why did the boy let her live in Mingyue Pavilion?" ”

"Uncle Lin, you don't need to worry about that woman, I have my own arrangements. Xicui just let her stay by her side, but she doesn't need to be monitored, just keep her safe. Yue Luxin stood up and reached out and plucked the strings in front of her, and the melodious sound drifted far away.

"Yes. Son. Then I'll go down first. Uncle Lin bowed to Yue Luxin and retreated.

Yue Luxin got up and stood with her hands in her hands, looking at the large areas of lotus flowers in full bloom in the lake, among which there are still many flowers that have not yet bloomed, Yue Luxin is still in a good mood, and with a wave of her sleeves, she saw that the lotus flowers in the lake have bloomed one after another.

Spring blooming pink lotus, think of a wonder that can only be seen in his other courtyard.

It's just that what he didn't notice was that this inadvertent move was all collected by a pair of eyes not far away.

After Xicui left, Li Ximu sat there again for a long time. Thinking about why he woke up in the imperial capital half a month away from his hometown Jinzhou, he couldn't think of any clue. I can't help but feel bored.

With a faint sigh, he got up to open the door and stepped into the courtyard.

There was a faint sound of the piano, and Li Ximu walked in the direction where the sound of the piano came. When I came to the lotus pond in the backyard, I saw the red from afar.

Just about to pass, but was hit by a woman who hurriedly walked by, Li Ximu staggered to stand firm, and when she looked at it again, the woman had already disappeared.

Li Ximu didn't care, turned her eyes, and was attracted by the white thing on the ground, it was a Luopa, she bent down to pick it up, looked carefully, it was a very ordinary handkerchief, there were no flowers and birds often embroidered by her daughter's family, it seemed that few girls didn't like these, Li Ximu thought about it and put it away.

On that side, the sound of the piano is still melodious.

Li Ximu walked towards the water pavilion.

Water pavilions, guqin, incense cases, red shirts. Yue Luxin seemed to be intoxicated by the sound of her own piano.

He looked very good-looking, his eyebrows and eyes were raised, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked. Li Ximu suddenly discovered that men can also be beautiful, so shocking.

unconsciously compared him with Shu Qi in his heart.

Su Qi is gentle and elegant, handsome and delicate, and always gives people a very warm feeling, as if the promise he made makes makes people feel very relieved.

And Yue Luxin, but it is obviously public, dazzling red, satin ink hair is loose and a few strands are scattered, with the slight breeze raised, his eyebrows and eyes are carefully raised, as if the graceful white-clothed scholar is teasing the shyness of the boudoir woman, and it is like the faint fragrance of book and ink from the ink painting that has been aged for many years, wanton and frivolous.

The pair of seductive eyes are embedded in the beautiful handsome face, deeply outlining a trace of charm that captivates all beings.

Yue Luxin has an arrogant beauty, but he is not so beautiful that he is not feminine, and he has an aura on his body, which makes people willing to believe him.

I don't know when the piano stopped, and Yue Luxin's lazy and slightly playful voice came: "Miss Pear, do you think it's good to look at it?" ”

Li Ximu came back to her senses and saw Yue Luxin leaning on the edge of the pavilion for a long time.

Remembering that she was staring at him just now, Li Ximu's face was hot.

Li Ximu entered the water pavilion and sat on the other side of the pavilion, staring at the pond outside the water pavilion, where the lotus flowers were in full bloom and the golden and red koi were swimming in it. The wind blew, shook the pink lotus, startled the fish, and in an instant they swam away one after another, disappearing into the layers of water waves.

Yue Luxin didn't speak, closing her eyes as if she was resting.

Li Ximu sat there stunned, and when he saw that he hadn't spoken, he took the initiative to speak: "Yue Gongzi? ”

"Huh?" Yue Luxin answered lazily, without raising her eyes, "What's the matter with Miss Pear?" ”

Seeing this, Li Ximu secretly said in her heart: This man is so rude! But this time after all, he saved her, and besides, this is his mansion, so he calmed down and said: "Xi Mu thank you for the chivalrous rescue of Yue Gongzi, it's just"

"It's just that you forgot that you still owe me a condition." Yue Luxin opened her eyes, and her eyes were still full of banter.

Li Ximu frowned. He got up and took a step forward and said, "But Yue Gongzi, Xi Mu thinks that it is not very good if I disturb the house for a long time, can I ask Yue Gongzi to send a car to send me back to Jinzhou in two days." The matter of the conditions can be set up first, and he will not be relied on in the future, I don't know what the prince of Yue thinks? ”

Yue Luxin lowered her eyes and chuckled twice, stood up and approached Li Ximu, and whispered in her ear: "Pear girl, do you think you will be fine if you escape from that crispy pavilion?" ”

Seeing Li Ximu looking at him puzzled, the smile on the corner of Yue Luxin's mouth was even worse: "That Crispy Pavilion is not an ordinary Qinglou. The power is not ordinarily big, if you want to go, I will not stop you! It's just"

Yue Luxin's words suddenly stopped. His eyes stared at her meaninglessly.

"Just what?" Li Ximu asked.

Yue Luxin picked up the white jade folding fan placed on the stone table, and opened the light fan a few times with a "brush": "It's just that if you go out, you will definitely be caught again." When the time comes, it will not be easy to escape. ”

Li Ximu will be skeptical. The man in front of him seems to be uninhibited, but in fact he is deep-minded, as if everything is under his control, but he has a feeling of looking down on the world.

Li Ximu pondered for a while and asked, "How does Yue Gongzi know that the Crispy Pavilion is not simple?" ”

Yue Luxin's eyes suddenly flashed brightly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth flashed with evil rebellion: "Pear girl, it's better not to ask if you shouldn't ask." ”

Li Ximu was stunned and didn't speak again.

For a while, I could only hear the sound of the wind blowing in the lotus pond.

For a moment, Yue Luxin didn't know what to think. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Miss Pear, have you offended anyone?" ”

Li Ximu looked at him. said lightly: "I am a boudoir woman, who can I offend." ”

Yue Luxin thought for a while and said: "Miss Pear, let's stay here for the time being, after I rescued you, I sent someone out to inquire, and now the people in Jizhou City who are looking for you are not only from the Crispy Pavilion." ”

Li Ximu was shocked!

"Anyone else looking for me?" Li Ximu didn't believe Yue Luxin's words very much. Since she was inexplicably caught in the Qinglou, she often wondered if she really got into trouble with someone or something that shouldn't be messed with, but she had every clue when she thought about it. Besides, she has very little social presence in Jinzhou, so who can let her provoke? unless

Yue Luxin continued: "The people I sent came back to report that there seem to be three people looking for you, except for the Crisp Pavilion, and the two people are not simple. ”

"Three-way?" After hearing this, Li Ximu lowered his head and read softly.

Could it be that Su Qi is really looking for her!

There was a hint of hope in his heart, his eyes looked straight at Yue Luxin, and Li Ximu noticed that his voice was trembling slightly: "Can Yue Gongzi investigate and deal with who else is looking for me besides Su Mei Pavilion?" ”

Yue Luxin snorted coldly and said, "I am not an immortal below, even if I am an unpredictable thing." ”

Li Ximu's heart was gloomy, and she turned around and left silently.

The night was very thick, the moon was sparse and shining through the window to see the beauty sitting alone at the table, under the warm yellow candlelight, Li Ximu stroked her eyebrows and sighed.

After returning to Mingyue Pavilion, Li Ximu has been thinking about what Yue Luxin said, he said that now it is not only the people who are looking for her in Jizhou City who are looking for her, there seem to be three people, so who else will look for him besides Crisp Pavilion?

Could it be Su Qi? Did he get out of danger?

I don't know when I'll be able to go back

Following.

Li Ximu woke up early, the sky was still a little cool, and called Xicui to bring water to wash herself.

Sitting in front of the dressing mirror, as soon as Li Ximu picked up the wooden comb, Xicui took the wooden comb from her hand to groom her.

"You go down first." Li Ximu said lightly.

"Pear girl, let Xicui curl your hair for you." Xicui thought that she was unfamiliar with this place and was a little reserved, so she took the initiative to sort it out for her.

As everyone knows, Li Ximu has been withdrawn since she was a child and doesn't like to be taken care of closely, so there has been no maid by her side.

Li Ximu frowned slightly, took the wooden comb from Xicui's hand, and said, "No need Xicui, you go down first, I'll come by myself." ”

Xicui didn't bother with her, smiled and said, "Then I'll go down first and prepare something to eat." ”

Li Ximu nodded.

After a while, Xicui turned back again, and there was no food in her hands.

As soon as Li Ximu wanted to ask, she heard Xi Cui speak first: "Miss Pear, there are guests from the house, and the prince invites you to go to the front hall." ”

"Guests? What did the guests from your house tell me to do? Li Ximu was very puzzled.

Xicui hesitated for a while and said, "Childe said, this person must know Miss Li." ”

"I know? Who is it? When Li Ximu heard Xicui say this, she had a puzzle in her heart, she had never been to Jizhou, and she actually had someone she knew.

Xicui's eyebrows were lowered, covering the different colors in her eyes: "Xicui doesn't know, the son only said that the girl went." ”

"Then you lead the way." Li Ximu is also very curious about the visitors.

A shallow smile hung on the corner of her mouth, and she walked towards the front hall as Xi Cui walked to the front hall, wondering who the guest here was all the way, could it be Su Qi? But after thinking about it, I thought it was unlikely. When he arrived outside the front hall, Li Ximu saw someone coming and paused.

It's him!

There were two people sitting in the front hall, one of them was still wearing a red shirt, sitting in the main seat, and there was a white jade folding fan on the table, which was Yue Luxin. I saw him holding the tea cup with one hand, lifting the tea lid with the other hand and gently dialing it, and then leaning to his lips and gently taking a small sip, and the lips were printed with the fine celadon tea cup and looked particularly red.

Yue Luxin saw Li Ximu outside the hall, her red lips hooked up a touch, and her eyes glanced at the middle-aged man in a satin robe sitting in the lower left, and something flashed in her eyes.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, he shouted out of the hall: "Since Miss Pear is here, what are you still doing outside?" ”

The shallow smile on Li Ximu's face had long since disappeared without a trace, replaced by an almost indifferent calm. Hearing Yue Luxin calling her, she walked up to him and stood still: "What did Yue Gongzi call me?" ”

The smile on Yue Luxin's face was playful, and she pointed to the person sitting opposite him: "Pear girl, this is"

"I don't know." Li Ximu didn't even look at the man, and then interrupted Yue Luxin's words.

The curve of the corners of Yue Luxin's lips was even greater: "Miss Pear didn't even look at it, how do you know if you don't know it?" ”

Li Ximu calmly stared at the demon man in front of him and didn't speak, and Yue Luxin did the same.

The middle-aged man on that side looked embarrassed, his eyes flickered, and he hesitated for a moment before getting up and arching his hand towards Yue Luxin: "Yue Gongzi, I really don't know this pear girl. ”

When Li Ximu heard this, the expression in his eyes became even colder.

"Oh?" Yue Luxin's gaze turned away from her face, looked at the middle-aged man, leaned back, adjusted a comfortable posture and sat still, the corners of his eyebrows slightly raised, like the end of his rise.

When the middle-aged man heard this, thin sweat appeared on his forehead, his brows were tangled, and he secretly wondered in his heart why this pear Ximu was in Yuelu Xin Mansion.

Yue Luxin paused for a moment, and said with a low smile: "The prefect doesn't need to be restrained, it's just that Miss Li's hometown happens to be Jinzhou under your jurisdiction, I wonder if the prefect can bring this girl with him when he returns home?" ”

"This" Jinzhou prefect looked embarrassed.

"No need." Li Ximu turned around and looked at the middle-aged man standing behind her, and her eyebrows rose to ridicule: "I, Li Ximu, am a civilian, how can I disturb the prefect." (To be continued.) )
