Chapter 239: Night Dew (4k)

PS: Changed~

Zhu Yan was really taken aback by what she asked, before meeting the Liu family, Yuan Rin had already thought of many things for her that the Liu family would ask, but the two of them, plus Guan He, did not expect the Liu family to ask such a thing.

"Xuanqing should know that I once played for the dancers of the String Moon Tower." Liu Shi got up slowly, and a lake-green gauze robe was draped down his body, which was indeed a wonderful figure that only a perennial dancer would have.

Yuan Rin pondered for a moment and smiled faintly, "Qin Niangzi Gui left Xianyue Tower more than 20 years ago, Xuanqing never expected that Mrs. knew her, and she really didn't think about it, but I don't know where Mrs. heard that Ah Yan may be related to Zigui?" ”

"Your father told me this morning that Mr. Zhu Juzhi's favorite concubine is the famous Qin Niangzi Gui of the Xianyue Building in the past." Liu Luosheng's eyes were dark, "When I knew Zigui, I was only four or five years old...... She has excellent piano skills and is not bad at heart. ”

"Madam......" Zhu Yan moved his lips, not knowing what to say.

According to what she said, this Liu Luosheng is only five or six years older than her, and at most she is the same age as Yuan Rin, but she is standing here, with such a look and such a figure, no matter how you look at it, she looks younger than the two of them, she is simply a demon.

I couldn't help but wonder what Qianyun looked like.

Liu Luosheng was very good at observing words, and immediately sighed according to her meaning, "Your mother...... She is different from those of us who live together, she is the most tall, and she loves to wear a sky blue wide-sleeved curl skirt and an extremely long aqua blue shawl in her life. The bun is the same as you are now, and you also like to wear a bun, except for a green jade crested hairpin. There is no other decoration. ”

"Green Jade...... Crested hairpin ......" Zhu Yan pursed her lips, Qianyun has great courage, she clearly knows that her appearance is very similar to Concubine Xiang, and she dares to wear a phoenix hairpin in Beijing, is she really not afraid of being discovered?

Liu Luosheng's eyes moved, Zhu Yan didn't care about anything else, and only emphasized this thing. What's so special about it?

"Madam, what else does Father want to know?" Yuan Rin asked bluntly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Oh, you're good. Liu Luosheng was stunned for a moment. immediately came back to his senses, and there was no objection to his attitude, after all, even Yuan Mu couldn't suppress his son a little, and she filled the house at a young age. I've never had this delusion.

"Zigui is the princess Qianyun of the previous dynasty. The daughter of Concubine Xiang. In fact, you don't need to ask Yuan Rin to know that his father informed the Liu family of the news, which was to figure out who Zigui was and whether Zhu Yan was Zigui's daughter.

Liu Luosheng pursed her lips, her narrow Danfeng eyes narrowed, and she looked at Zhu Yan again, "No wonder Miss Yan has a comfortable bearing, knowing that what she sees is her future mother-in-law." Still not changing the color. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Zhu Yan didn't dare. Zhu Yan lowered his head and bit his lip gently. secretly slandered, at Liu Luosheng's age, she couldn't treat someone about her age as an elder.

"Xuanqing, who my father wants to know, has been told everything, the city gate will be closed, and Mrs. please go back." Yuan Rin coldly gave the order to evict the guest, and added by the way, "Madame's youth has not passed away, so I should come here less in the future and avoid suspicion." ”

Zhu Yan saw that Liu Luosheng's face was red and white, gritted his teeth heavily, and then pretended to leave indifferently, and couldn't help but turn his back and laugh, "It's the first time I've found out, you are so thick-skinned, how can anyone joke with yourself?" ”

"The first day she asked Ah Yan to return to Beijing was not happy." Yuan Rin didn't give an explanation, but only hugged her tightly into his arms.

"Don't be like this...... Zhu Yan struggled for a moment, and found that he was hugging him very tightly, and turned his face away in a little panic, and snorted in a low voice, "What if she comes back again?" ”

"No, it won't." Yuan Rin replied in the affirmative, clasped her chin and turned her face back, lowered her head and rubbed the tip of her nose, "Tonight is the last night......

Tomorrow when they enter the city, they will have to separate, and it is impossible to stick together every day like in the previous months.

The last night that we can stay together in front of the worship hall has some different hints in it.

Zhu Yan's face was already hot, and he pushed him indiscriminately, but he was pressed on the long table behind him, and with Yuan Rin's bold and reckless Cheng DΓΉ, Zhu Yan felt that he might really not care if this was the main hall or not.

Guan He stood outside the corridor, a little helpless about the situation inside, and coughed lightly after a long time, "...... Childe, the white apple girl is clamoring to see Miss Yan. ”

Yuan Rin let go at this time, looked down at Zhu Yan hurriedly arranging her clothes, and stretched out her hand to wrap her loose bun for her, "Are you really unwilling tonight?" ”

This was asked very loudly, and even Guan He heard it clearly, and when he saw that Zhu Yan's face was so ashamed that he could blush the hairpin on his sideburns, he immediately walked out quickly and waited quietly in the courtyard.

After another half a moment, the two of them came out of the hall one after the other, and there was still a faint flush on their faces, but fortunately the night was dark and not so easy to notice.

Bai Ping had been waiting for a long time, and finally put Zhu Yan out, hurriedly rushed forward and pulled her, dragging her back, "Girl, is that young lady difficult for you?" Bai Apple doesn't think she is a serious person. ”

Such a young and enchanting woman, she doesn't seem to have the reserve of everyone's ladies at all, and it is indeed easy for people to have some conjectures, not to mention that Bai Apple grew up in Beijing since she was a child, and her eyes are very accurate.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Although Liu was born in a song building, he spoke well, and he was able to go out of the city late at night to come here, so he must have benefited from Mr. Qian's attention, and Bai Apple should not be despised by her. Zhu Yan held on to the railing, outside which were usually large patches of oleanders, and the long and narrow leaves swayed gently in the night wind, cutting the starry candlelight that came out of the house.

Bai Apple turned her head sideways in surprise, she knew that her girl was very smart, but she always felt that she seemed to be missing a tendon in dealing with people, in the past, in Jiangcun, most of the people she met were simple farmers, naturally there would be nothing wrong, but going to Beijing would never be so simple, she was always worried that Zhu Yan was bullied, listening to her calm analysis today, only then did she realize that she saw people so transparently?

"Since the girl understands, it's better to stay away from the Liu clan in the future." Bai Apple thought for a moment. Suddenly, he nodded again, "Presumably, there are a lot of concubines in that kind of big family." This Liu family can be a wife at such a young age, either with an extraordinary background or extraordinary talents......"

Zhu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, climbed a sprig of oleander with one hand and stroked it gently, "In short, it's just one word, it's difficult to do." ”

"It's good that the girl understands." Bai Apple flattened her mouth and muttered lowly. "I have long advised the girl not to come to Beijing, and it is not a fun place."

"Go and rest." Zhu Yan turned his head sideways and smiled sweetly, "Let's go to the Void Garden tomorrow." I heard that it has been vacant for more than ten years, so I'm afraid I need to take a good rest, so take a good rest today and don't get tired. ”

Bai Apple is used to hearing her words of care. But he still bowed his head very dutifully. "Thank you for your concern."

"White Apple is a smart girl." Yuan Rin was standing under the porch, and naturally heard their conversation.

Zhu Yan looked at the back of the girl who left in a hurry and was swallowed up by the night, and lowered her head thoughtfully, "Xuanqing doesn't seem to like her......?" ”

Yuan Rin didn't answer, he couldn't say that it was because Bai Ping was too vigilant, so he was very disgusted with her, right? What he needs is Zhu Yan's unconditional trust, if there is such a girl who always likes to guess the bad when encountering problems, he is by Zhu Yan's side. Naturally, the effect will be greatly reduced.

But if these words were said to Zhu Yan, it would only make her more suspicious. It's better not to say it.

After pondering for a moment, Yuan Rin indifferently changed the topic, "Miss Qi arrived in Shangjing a few days ago, and she will be temporarily placed in your uncle's mansion, and she will be taken back to the Void Garden to live together tomorrow." ”

Zhu Yan pursed her lips and was silent, and sighed after a long time, "There are some things you don't want to say, so we won't talk about them...... Go and rest. ”

She told herself over and over again in her heart that she wanted to believe in him and believed in him, but why was she still not confident? She occasionally wished she was a stupid girl so that she wouldn't think so much about it......

Yuan Rin grabbed her wrist and dragged her back to her side, with a hint of request in her tone, "It's just right at night, Ah Yan will accompany me for a walk." ”

"It's fine."

Oleanders are planted everywhere in the garden, and the fresh air after the rain seems to be mixed with the smell of plants.

Oleander is very poisonous, and there are many of them here, and there are inevitably a lot of them in the air, so there is not a single flying insect in this garden, and the servants are all asleep, and there is not a single sound in the quiet garden.

Such a cold and eerie atmosphere unexpectedly made Zhu Yan feel very relieved.

After walking for a long time, the half moon in the night had turned west, and Yuan Rin took her into a courtyard.

"Go to sleep." Yuan Rin let go of her hand and gently patted her on the shoulder.

"What about you......?" Zhu Yan took a few steps in the moonlight, and when he turned around, he saw that Yuan Rin was still standing still in the distance, like a statue in the night, and slowly walked back to him, "Xuanqing, it's late at night." ”

"Go and rest, I'll be alone for a while." Yuan Rin breathed a long sigh of relief and brushed comfortingly at the corner of her forehead, "I'll be here in a moment." ”

Zhu Yan snapped his eyes and reached out to stroke the placket of his clothes, "It's all exposed, there are a lot of oleanders planted here, don't stay outside." ”

Seeing that he was still indifferent, Zhu Yan smiled helplessly, and threw herself into his arms to be coquettish, "Xuanqing, don't think about things, I won't be able to finish thinking about it for a while." ”

"Ah Yan, don't make trouble...... Yuan Rin frowned, involuntarily hugged her tightly, and muttered in a low voice, as if to say to herself, "I can't help but do something to you......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I changed my mind. Zhu Yan sighed softly, his slightly red cheeks rubbing against the placket of his clothes.

She has clearly realized that going to Beijing will never be as simple as she thinks, and she is now carrying a bizarre life experience, if she takes a wrong step, it is very likely to step into the land of no return, and she may not have more time to delay.

"Yan has been thinking about it for too long." Yuan Rin sniffed the breath in her hair and evoked a wry smile, "In half an hour, I have to go back to the house, my father is afraid that there are still things to deal with." ”

Zhu Yan's life story was revealed, which was far beyond his consideration, and it was still too late to rush back and erase some undiscovered clues.

"The gates are supposed to be closed, how do you get in?" Zhu Yan raised his head, and the stars were reflected in his eyes, shining brightly.

"I have my own way." Yuan Rin closed his eyes, tightened the hand around her waist, although he changed his mind, he still couldn't help but want to get close to her, but he didn't want to let the first time between the two of them be too hasty, it was really torturous.

Zhu Yan originally made up his mind, but he was disturbed and confused, so he just let him hold him motionlessly.

After a long time like this, Yuan Rin gradually let go, lowered his head and smiled regretfully in her ear, "This time, you are not allowed to push back next time." ”

"You're leaving?" Zhu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the half-moon that had fallen to the west with sleepy eyes, and choked for a while before sighing, "It's so late at night...... Be careful. ”

"Rest for a while, I'll send you in." Yuan Rin saw that her eyes were hazy, and then she remembered that it was already midnight, Zhu Yan had been short of energy recently, and she was afraid that she would be even more uncomfortable tomorrow after holding on for so long, so she stroked her forehead and rubbed it gently, "Aren't you tired?" I didn't know ...... after holding on for so long."

Zhu Yan smiled lowly, the pain in his forehead was a little sluggish, but it had been relieved a lot by his press, so he rubbed it in his palm, "Don't be so sleepy, I'll accompany you for a while." ”

Yuan Rin didn't persuade her again, helped her sit down in front of the steps, and looked at the stars in the night.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Xuanqing's father, does he want to return to the country? Zhu Yan played with the flower branch taken from his sideburns, his eyes fixed on a certain point of starlight, and asked casually.

Yuan Rin was stunned, looking down at the person leaning on her arms, her flat gaze fell on the distance, and she didn't seem to realize what she was talking about at all.

"If you don't speak, then I guessed right...... Really? Only then did Zhu Yan pull his gaze back, his eyes were slightly hidden, he rubbed in front of him, nestled in comfortably, and muttered in a low voice, "It won't work...... Didn't Xuanqing persuade him? ”

"Ah Yan......" Yuan Rin stroked her shoulder, she had been holding on for too long, and she had already fallen asleep before the words fell, and those things just now were just half-asleep and half-awake unintentionally.

Guan He walked over quietly, looking at the girl who was already asleep with a complicated face, obviously Zhu Yan had just said that, he also heard it, "Miss Zhu can see it too clearly...... Childe couldn't hide it from her. ”

"yes, she saw it too clearly." Yuan Rin paused, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Why doesn't even Ah Yan understand the things that my father doesn't understand anyway?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The old man knew that his time was short, so the son asked him to think like that. "Yuan Mu chose to surrender to the enemy, and now he is trying to restore the country, these are understandable, but what Guan He can't understand is that now the situation is stable, just a few ministers and old ministers, everyone knows that there is no possibility of success, why is Yuan Mu unwilling to let go?
