The morning light is slightly soothing, and the autumn colors are pleasant.

Wake up early, the fallen leaves in Chuxiu Palace are golden, like a soft carpet covering the courtyard. Among the flowers and leaves, drops of dew roll in the wind, shining in the sun.

At breakfast, King Chen came to Chuxiu Palace to play again, carrying a simple kite in his hand.

He had breakfast in Gu Yunxi and Lan Xin's room, and then pestered Gu Yunxi to play with him.

Concubine Xu couldn't do anything about the emperor's stupid son, so she had to allow Gu Yunxi to take a half-day vacation and let her coax King Chen out to play.

Leaving Chuxiu Palace with his front foot, Gu Yunxi looked at the kite in King Wangchen's hand, and suddenly thought of something.

"Your Highness, the slave knows that there is a place that is most suitable for kite flying, so let's go together."

Gu Yunxi squinted and smiled, his voice sweet.

I thought that King Chen would be obedient, but his facial features were tangled, and he didn't seem to be very happy, so he grabbed Gu Yunxi and walked on the reverse palace road, and kept arguing in his mouth:

"No, no, come with me, I'll take you somewhere."

Behind them, the little eunuch who swept the floor stretched his neck and watched the two of them go away, threw away the broom and ran in the direction of the celebrant priest.

King Chen dragged Gu Yunxi all the way to the outside of Wutong Garden.

There is an empty field opposite the gate of the golden nail vermilion, surrounded by no flowers and trees, and the wind direction is just right.

Now, Gu Yunxi has no choice but to rely on King Chen and stay here with peace of mind to accompany him to fly kites.

Gu Yunxi ran forward with a skirt in one hand and a spool in the other, and King Chen followed closely behind with a kite in his hand.

After repeated attempts, the kite always fell to the ground at the moment when it just left King Chen's hands.

Gu Yunxi thought it was King Chen's problem, so he proposed to switch positions with him, with him in front and himself behind.

The result is still the same.

Gu Yunxi picked up the kite depressedly and said to King Chen:

"What the hell is going on? The slave and maid saw that everyone else flew kites like this. ”

"I don't know, I thought you would let it go, so I asked the grandma of Wutong Garden to help me tie it."

King Chen shrugged his shoulders and opened his mouth to continue, his eyes suddenly staring behind Gu Yunxi.

"What?"

When she saw it, she looked surprised.

The moment I turned my head, I saw a cold Qingtang standing not far away, the faint morning light pouring on the well-embroidered python robe, and the soft halo outlined the man's slender and resolute lines.

On his left and right sides, a group of little eunuchs followed, those serving tea and toasting, holding cloaks, and two people carrying rose chairs, and the pomp was much larger than when they were in Dongchang.

Gu Yunxi's heart tightened, his five fingers contracted uncontrollably, and he had forgotten to give a salute.

The sound of "poof" was slight, and the crudely made paper kite was actually poked out of a row of holes by her fingers.

Seeing this, King Chen was so distressed that he was about to cry, his handsome facial features were tangled, and he was aggrieved:

"Oops, my sister is so bad, she broke my kite ......"

Gu Yunxi's cheeks were red, his complexion was narrow, and he hurriedly coaxed him:

"The slave and maid know that they are wrong, please forgive Your Highness, and catch up with Ming'er and the slave and maid to compensate Your Highness for a new kite."

Leng Qingtang took two steps forward with a smile, waved his hand at King Chen, and said:

"Wechen has seen His Royal Highness King Chen."

The other party smiled and said in an urn voice:

"Pretty uncle, why are you here?"

"Dare to ask Your Highness, but you are flying a kite?"

The delicate eyelids were raised, although Leng Qingtang was asking King Chen, his eyes were fixed on Gu Yunxi, and a smile appeared at the bottom of his deep eyes.

A heart instantly beat "bang", Gu Yunxi bit his lip unnaturally, and took a deep breath.

King Chen's face was dyed with joy, he nodded vigorously, snatched the kite in Gu Yunxi's hand, and said to Leng Qingtang:

"Yes, yes, my sister and I went out to fly a kite, but who knew that this kite was disobedient and couldn't be put up no matter how it was flowned. It's good now, my sister broke it and didn't play anymore. ”

"Can the kite be seen by Weichen?"

Leng Qingtang stretched out his bony hand, and his smile was elegant and good-looking.

King Chen handed the broken kite away.

Leng Qingtang lowered his eyes and looked at it, hooked his lips and chuckled:

"The skeleton of this kite is built in the wrong way, it is top-heavy, the paper tassel on the tail is short, and the balance is not enough, so it is difficult to fly."

The long eyelashes were raised, and the gentle eyes looked at Gu Yunxi:

"Ben Du will tie a kite and make a new one for you, okay?"

Did you hear that right?

The admiral of the second product East Factory, the palm print of the celebrant supervisor, under the blue sky and white sun, actually said that he would give her this five-grade palace maid to tie a kite-

Gu Yunxi's eyebrows were stunned, and he clasped his hands tightly when he was young, and his expression was slightly cramped:

"Thank you for the good intentions of the overseer, but the hour is not early, the slave and maid have to rush back to Chuxiu Palace to serve the master, it is inconvenient to stay here, and the slave and maid will retire first."

Bowing to Leng Qingtang, she turned her head to King Chen and said:

"Your Highness, the slave has gone back, and I will play with you in the future."

"Hey!"

Without waiting for Gu Yunxi to retreat, King Chen hurriedly grabbed her arm, his brows furrowed, and his expression was dissatisfied:

"What are you running, Xu Niangniang didn't let you accompany me in the morning, let's just play for a while!"

The lie was unconsciously exposed by an unreasonable fool, Gu Yunxi was ashamed, and his clear eyes no longer dared to look at the handsome man with cold fragrance on the opposite side.

Leng Qingtang noticed that the girl was too abnormal today, but he didn't care, and he didn't look back and ordered both sides:

"Go to someone, go to the celebrant to get rice paper, pen, ink, and paste, and come back as quickly as possible. The others also dispersed, so there was no need to follow. ”

The words of the palm print were orders, and the little eunuchs immediately turned around, and the girl ran away, disappearing from the sight of the three in an instant.

Leng Qingtang smiled lightly and moved closer to Gu Yunxi:

"It's a simple kite, and it doesn't take a lot of time to tie it. Hengzhu, you have to accompany King Chen in the morning, Mo Ruo wait for a while, he won't make any more noise with you with the new kite, huh? ”

His voice was soft and warm, with a power that was impossible to resist. The magnetic tail note is deliberately prolonged, which seems to be a bit flattering.

It could be seen that the girl in front of him wanted to avoid him.

Leng Qingtang thought that the crowded occasion would make her feel uncomfortable, so she compassionately dismissed the entourage.

His eyes moved slightly, Gu Yunxi was at a loss, raised his hand in embarrassment and stroked the broken hair on his sideburns, bowed his head and said nothing.

His right arm was dragged by King Chen in vain and dragged into the gate of Wutong Garden, :

"Let's go, let's go, I want a new kite, and I want my beautiful uncle to tie a new kite for me."

Helplessly, Gu Yunxi could only follow King Chen and walk into the gate of Wutong Garden.

Leng Qingtang smiled softly and followed behind the two silently.

The layout of the Sycamore Garden is different from most of the palace's halls, the outer garden is long and narrow, with a row of sycamore trees on each side, the trunks are towering, and the frost leaves are dense.

In the center of the outer garden is a white brick and stone road, which is far away and straight, and the edge of the road is decorated with cobblestones, piecing together the interesting shapes of flowers and plants.

Standing at the gate of the palace and looking from a distance, a white line in the golden bush extends to the end of the red wall, which is particularly eye-catching.

The wind moves, the shadows of the trees sway, and the sunlight falls from the gaps in the swaying branches and leaves, breaking into mottled and murmuring everywhere, and the scenery is pleasant.

The three of them sat on stone benches at the end of the outer garden.

Gu Yunxi lowered his eyes, his eyebrows were pale, and the complex brilliance that was bright and extinguished under his eyes was completely blocked by the two thick feather long eyelashes, and a face without sadness and joy showed the indifference that rejected people for thousands of miles.

She admitted that when Lord Leng appeared, a light did flash in her eyes, and the long-lost feelings quietly climbed up to the lake of her heart, like ripples, disturbing a pool of spring water.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Yunxi regained his full sanity.

Because she learned of her life experience, when she saw Lord Leng at this time, she inevitably thought of her mother and the token that her mother gave to the overseer, "Treasures and Treasures".

The reason why he chose to avoid and treat him coldly was just to let himself cut off this love as soon as possible.

She didn't want her love with him to be based on his feelings for another woman, and that woman was still her own mother!

The stinger in his heart was still there, and the sharp pain made Gu Yunxi suffer a lot. She was silently forbearing, and her complexion was calm.

Leng Qingtang sat on Gu Yunxi's side, turned his head to look at her, and frowned slightly.

Gu Yunxi felt that her face was being stared at for a long time by two bright eyes, which made her somewhat uncomfortable.

She turned her head suddenly, her eyes met Leng Qingtang's inquiring and soft gaze, her eyes were gloomy and sharp.

"Overseer, why do you keep looking at slaves?!"

Gu Yunxi asked in a muffled voice, his tone was stiff, leaving no trace of emotion.

Leng Qingtang's eyes were tall, and the look of surprise overflowed the eyebrows at the end of her eyes, she didn't expect her to behave like this at all.

He didn't mean anything else, he stared at her facial features for a long time, just wanting to get acquainted with her new face as soon as possible.

Yunxi changed his face, this is a fact that no one can change. Even if Leng Qingtang was heartbroken, he could only accept the status quo and try to face her new face calmly.

After more than a year of searching, now that the person has finally returned alive, it is a blessing in misfortune, and he no longer has the luxury of others.

Imperial Physician Jiang once said that as long as Yunxi's former face is still alive and fresh, if the doctor comes back and changes her face again, it will not be without a chance for her to restore her former appearance.

Leng Qingtang rejected Imperial Doctor Jiang's idea early in the morning.

Not to mention whether Yunxi's previous face was well preserved after a long time, Leng Qingtang didn't want his girl to take another risk based on the risk of performing the face change surgery dictated by Imperial Doctor Jiang, and the physical pain that Yunxi would have to endure after the operation. That's why he had to try to accept the unfamiliar face in front of him. When the overall situation is decided, he can stay with his clouds and tides for the rest of his life.

But what I saw today made Leng Qingtang dumbfounded, this girl actually contradicted him?

Did she take the wrong medicine, or was she angry again in the palace? Why is this attitude so different from when we met a few days ago?

With all kinds of incomprehension, Leng Qingtang smiled abruptly:

"It's okay, it's just a few days away, are you okay?"

The shallow voice is like a heavenly sound, tempting and sinking.

Gu Yunxi immediately lost his mind, his clear eyes turned in a panic, his eyes turned to the side, and replied indifferently:

"The master of labor is concerned, and the slaves and maids have always been good."

Leng Qingtang stared at her expressionless little face, nodded faintly, and then continued to ask, as if deliberately seeking a topic:

"That Xiangyusan, did you apply it on time according to the recipe of this Governor?"

She spoke unhurriedly:

"Thank you, Lord, the powder has only been applied twice, and the slave and maid are busy with one hand all day long, and it is really inconvenient for ten fingers to stain those things."

There was silence in an instant, and the autumn breeze blew with the breath of Xiao Suo.

Leng Qingtang looked directly at Gu Yunxi, his complexion was heavy, his eyes were a little sharp, and his eyebrows were shrouded in a layer of shadow.

Interestingly, this girl seems to be angry with him. However, he didn't know what he had done wrong, and he actually made her unhappy.

Caught off guard, a big hand stretched out and grabbed the girl's soft and cold little hand.

The familiar warmth made her emotional, but she was also confused.

Her lips fluttered, trembling but she didn't dare to shout, one wrist twisted uneasily, and frequently made small resistances, trying to free her weak five fingers from his strong shackles.

Where is he willing to put it?

The more she tried to escape, the more he clutched him. Maybe it was too hasty, but he didn't care.

has already missed once, it was God's mercy that sent her back, and he was about to hold her hand tightly, not wanting to let her go again.

The two hands are entangled under the stone table, you come and go, inseparable.

King Chen sat opposite the two of them, got up in a daze after discovering the small movements under the table, looked at Gu Yunxi with a violent face suspiciously, and turned his stunned face to Leng Qingtang with a faint smile, and said:

"What's wrong with you two? What are you doing with your hands under the table? ”
