Chapter 148: The Man Is in the Lamplight

It's another year of Lantern Festival, because of the intermittent snow that has been falling since the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, and now there is nearly two feet of snow on the street floor, and when you step on it, your whole foot can sink into it.

Just after the hour, everyone had just eaten, and they didn't know where to gather to play.

In the incense garden, Mo Yanxi lit the lamp, sat on the table, and looked at a red box taken out from the depths of the cabinet.

Xiangxue cleaned up Mo Yanxi's clothes, and then burned the stove red, and then asked, "Miss, what are you looking at?" How many of them are waiting to drink with you? ”

Mo Yanxi shook his head, suddenly opened the box, and took out a folding fan from inside.

"Isn't this what Concubine Yude gave to you? But it has to be put away, and now the Prime Minister's Mansion is gaining momentum, but King Yong'an is also under one person and above ten thousand, but Qin can clean it up, and he can still save his life at a critical time. ”

Xiangxue looked at the fan, and even her voice was much quieter.

Mo Yanxi sighed: "I didn't expect that we would also have the day when we would do whatever it takes to achieve our goals, if we really need to use this fan one day, King Yongan will definitely think that we are shameless." ”

Xiangxue didn't blink her eyes, and said firmly: "Miss, but your life is the most important thing." No matter what, Xiangxue only wishes that Miss will live a long life and be happy in this life. That's what I think every year. ”

Mo Yanxi looked at Xiang Xue's shining eyes and said, "Of course I know that you think so, otherwise how would you remember the copper coin and red rope, the gardenia lily and white fungus soup, and remember everything that once was." I remember when I was a kid and I almost died, and you sat on my bedside for days. I also wish you a long life and all the best. ”

As soon as she talked about this, Xiangxue was frightened, and hurriedly said: "Don't talk about the rest, that Miss Yan of the Guogong Mansion is really arrogant and domineering, and she is used to bullying others." But... His younger brother is really good. ”

"Brother? What brother? ”

When Mo Yanxi heard this, she couldn't help frowning, she remembered that the Qin family, the wife of the prince, seemed to have only given birth to Li Mengyao and had no other children.

Xiang Xue thought about it carefully before she said firmly: "When the Prime Minister's Mansion held a banquet, the person who sent the young lady back was the little son of the Guogong Mansion, and I clearly heard Mo Baiqing call him Miss Li's cousin. ”

"What! Brother?! ”

The snow outside the house was getting heavier and heavier, and the branches of the pear trees were bent and bent, as if they were about to break with the slightest exertion.

Mo Yanxi thought in his mind, it stands to reason that the Prime Minister's Mansion held a banquet, and the concubine was absolutely not qualified to come, and only Li Chengming and Li Mengyao were seated in the main hall at that time... How could there be an extra cousin for no reason!

"Xiangxue, can you hear clearly?"

Mo Yanxi frowned and asked.

Xiangxue nodded vigorously: "Miss, I heard clearly!" However, the boy was not dressed gorgeously, but looked like the clothes of his entourage, and he looked very thin, so he sent the young lady back, and waited for a while before leaving. When I left, my aunt asked me to deliver it. As soon as he came out of the Incense Garden, he was met by Mo Baiqing, and then..."

Xiangxue patted her brain, thought about it, and continued: "Then Mo Baiqing scolded that son. What do you say that the villain is powerful, does not respect women's morality, is charming and seductive, and in the end he is still a concubine..."

Hearing this, Mo Yanxi sat down again, took a sip of tea, and said: "Zhang Ruping is indeed like this, she can't go to the main hall, but I heard that as soon as the Wang family died, she became the head of the house, and this Mo Baiqing is now on the rise and has become the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion." It can be seen that she is charming and seductive, and she is still a little useful. ”

Xiangxue shook her head: "Wrong, wrong, Miss is wrong, this is what Mo Baiqing said to the son of the Guogong Mansion." ”

"Bang!"

The white jade teacup shattered into two petals on the ground, and the hot tea inside emitted green smoke. It was so quiet outside the house that no sound could be heard.

Mo Yanxi only felt that his ears were roaring, and everything in the room was a little spinning.

The villain is powerful, the fox is charming, if you let go of the strict rules of the Guogong Mansion, there is only one person.

"Li Yuan..."Mo Yanxi's eyes were distracted, muttering to himself.

"That's right! It seems that Mo Baiqing called him Li Yuan, but he didn't know which concubine it was. ”

Xiangxue nodded, and the memories of the past were finally pieced together.

Mo Yanxi would never have thought that the person who brought herself back from the snowdrift back then turned out to be Li Yuan, the one she felt was nothing, and the Guogong Mansion where she was engaged at the beginning, Li Yuan who everyone looked down on...

But even if he had seen it at that time, how could he recognize himself now that so many years had passed.

Mo Yanxi closed his eyes, and his mind was full of those eyes like spring water.

The world says that he is a gentleman, does not learn and has no skills, because the old man is the most regular, so he is very tired of their mother and son. If it weren't for Li Chengming to stop him, I'm afraid that the Guogong Mansion would have no place for them a long time ago. He is the same as himself, from childhood to adulthood, living a trembling life, looking at the faces of others. There are more people in the Guogong Mansion who want the two of them to die. He had to work hard to survive.

Mo Yanxi thought about it, uncertain. It's like snowflakes outside the house, drifting around.

Soon, above the sky, bright fireworks burst into bursts, colorful and beautiful.

The calm streets exploded again, and groups of people snuggled together to watch the fireworks.

In the Broken Jade Pavilion, the pipa is melodious and the singing voice is soft. Everywhere is the smell of rouge.

Li Yuan leaned against the window, looking at the flickering sky, quietly in a daze.

Suddenly, a graceful figure came up, grabbed Li Yuan's arm, and asked softly: "Such a beautiful day, if you don't go home, what are you doing here?" ”

Li Yuan smiled lightly: "Home? I feel like I have a home somewhere. But... Maybe it'll be soon. ”

When Yaoyao heard this, she lowered her head shyly, her pale face turned red, and she said, "I ordered someone to make a Lantern Festival, and you don't drink all the time, it's not good for your body." ”

As he spoke, he straightened Li Yuan's neckline again, and said angrily: "Look, it's snowing so heavily outside, why are you wearing such thin clothes?" Even if you are impregnable, your body can't stand it. ”

Li Yuan looked down at his clothes, and couldn't help laughing: "It's really embarrassing, I used to see her, every time I saw her, I was so embarrassed, it seems that I have to make a few new clothes." ”

"She?"

Yaoyao frowned and asked a little puzzled.

Li Yuan retracted his gaze, the smile on the corner of his mouth widened, and there was a hint of smile in his eyes.

"That's right, it's her, she's finally back."

"Also... In other words, the home you just said was with her? Who is she?! ”

Yaoyao took a step back, her eyes were full of tears, she had never seen Li Yuan like this, even if he stayed here day and night, he had never looked at herself so gently. There has always been a distance between them.

Li Yuan nodded firmly: "That's right, the only reason I live in this life is because of her, maybe there are some things she doesn't remember, but they have been engraved in my bones, nearly twenty years, I have never forgotten." Back then, she almost became my wife, but it's okay, I still have a chance. I'm not going to let her leave me again. ”

Yaoyao looked at the man in front of him fixedly, and what he said in his mouth was his white moonlight. She stood here like a joke.

"What about me? What am I? I'm in your Li Yuan's eyes... What the hell is it?! ”

When Li Yuan heard this, he paused, then turned his head and smiled: "I'm not a broken jade pavilion empty-handed. ”

Yaoyao's head hurt like an explosion, she always thought she was special, but now it seems that everything is just her own passion.

"By the way, from tomorrow, I won't be coming, it's getting late, and I should go back."

Li Yuan said, put the empty wine jar on the edge of the window, and then took out a piece of extremely high-quality jade bracelet from his bosom and put it on the table. Then he walked away quickly without saying a word.

Yaoyao looked at the jade bracelet on the table, and instantly felt that all dignity no longer existed.

Her face was pale, her eyes were red and moist, and tears flowed uncontrollably, quickly blurring her vision.

Suddenly, angry, Yaoyao picked up the jade bracelet and was about to throw it down, but at this moment, she still withdrew her hand, touched the bracelet, and then slowly walked to the small table where she was dressed up, and opened a small cabinet, which was full of jewelry given to her by Li Yuan. Although she also wondered, how could a person who was obviously disliked by everyone and achieved nothing have so many valuable objects. Whenever she asked, she could always hear Li Yuan say that she had taken it from her mother.

She was reluctant to sell these things, and she was reluctant to wear them out of the house, for fear of being taken away.

Looking at these things now, Yaoyao actually thinks that they are all jokes, maybe all these years, she has been lying to herself.

The snow was falling, and it was sprinkled with water. There is no wind, but there is always a trace of cold through the bones. After the fireworks, everything is quiet again.

In the Mo house, it was lively and jubilant. Everyone gathered together and sat together to wait for the hot Lantern Festival to be served on the table.

They all looked red-faced, with more or less the smell of wine. Only Mo Yanxi's whole heart absentmindedly echoed everyone.

In fact, she didn't know what she was thinking anymore, and sometimes her mind was blank, and sometimes she retreated to the cold snow when she was a child. She was already sick that day, and she couldn't see anyone clearly. Looking back now, it seems that a pair of warm hands lifted her out of the snow. The man didn't speak, just tried her breath.

She once thought about who saved her, but to no avail, she got involved in new troubles. I didn't mention it again.

Now that I see it, fate is really a big net, going around and around, looking for him thousands of times, and suddenly looking back, but in the dim light.
