And the man stood beside the wall with his hands in his hands, watching her leave with his eyes on her, like a statue standing still.

She suddenly felt in a hurry, and there were many words of farewell that had not yet been spoken, but then she thought about it, as if what she should have said had been said last night. In the early autumn

Offering parting wine at night and getting drunk is more like a farewell, solemn and honest.

She smiled at him as well, so she had to turn around, get into the carriage with the help of Atsui and Adam, and set off.

"Lady, this is a gift from the prince." Ah Cui didn't take out Li Chengxuan's gift until this time.

"The prince said that after you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, there will be a reward from the saint, and the kings will also send congratulatory gifts, and he will send you in advance." Atsui whispered, still sad.

Xi Lingyue took a small brocade box from her hand, it was really small, only a little bigger than the palm of her hand, but inexplicably, she guessed what it contained - it was a jade pendant made of Dushan jade, the jade quality was delicate, the color was soft, the blue was green, and it was more dense and blue than jade. What's even more rare is that it is a rare double-sided carving: the front is carved with "flowers and the moon is full", and the reverse is "two orioles looking up at a line of egrets", which just implies her name "Xiling Yue".

However, the fly in the ointment is that the corners of this jade pendant have been damaged, and a piece of gold leaf has been artificially repaired, becoming a veritable gold inlaid jade, which also has a kind of chic defect.

She vividly remembered the first time she saw the jade pendant. It was in the Xiangshan Temple in Luoyang, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Bai Juyi hurried to meet Li Chengxuan, took out this jade pendant in front of her, but lied that it was given to the concubine under Li Chengxuan's hint.

She knew in her heart that this must be Li Chengxuan's birthday gift to her, but she refused to expose it, and asked Bai Juyi hypocritically. Unexpectedly, Nie Yinniang's sudden appearance caused this jade pendant to take off her palm and was shot down by Li Chengxuan to the ground.

Then she inquired about the case, hit a dart by mistake, and fell unconscious...... After waking up, I never saw this jade pendant again. She thought it had been shattered, discarded, forgotten.

She didn't want to admit that she still thought about it once in a while, and she felt regretful, if she had held her hand a little tighter, wouldn't she have lost it?

It's a pity that there is no "if" in this world, and he gave her another "if".

Xilingyue wanted to laugh, but she felt that her eyes were sour, so she had to hold back her emotions and ask Acui: "Does the prince have something to explain?" ”

"The prince only said that this jade pendant is left for you as a souvenir."

Keep it as a souvenir...... Xilingyue held the jade pendant in her hand, and couldn't help but lift the curtain to look out, at this time the carriage had already driven far, far away, and after another street, it would drive out of Yongfufang. She is also about to live in the Eldest Princess's Mansion with a new identity and start a new journey.

And everything that happened after he got acquainted, including Zhenhai, Luoyang, and last night, suddenly became extremely clear and memorable.

"That's a pity, this king still wants to eat autumn crabs in Zhenhai next year, it seems that you won't come."

"There was once a member of the Ministry of Rites named Liu Zongyuan, who rated the 'Eight Views of Luoyang'...... Except for the 'Golden Valley Spring Clear', the remaining seven scenic spots cannot be missed. ”

Jiangnan Crab Feast, Luoyang Eight Scenes...... Does he remember those joking promises?

He must have remembered, just as he remembered the jade pendant.

But what's the use? They never had a chance to taste it again.

Everything seemed to have become an unattainable dream, before she could catch it

Wait is already far away. The jade pendant in his hand seems to carry a thousand words, and his, as well as hers, have forever become a memorial.

There is the daughter of the eldest princess of Hanyang, Guo Shi, blessed by heaven, scattered and returned, now has been cautious, diligent and gentle, gentle and gentle, Shude Hanzhang, I am pleased to hear it, canonized the lord of Xichuan County, given the name "Lingyue", and 2,000 households.

September 15 of the second year of Yuanhe

In the hall of the eldest princess's mansion, the four members of the Guo family were all kneeling, listening to Pei Yan, a scholar in the middle school, read out the holy decree, and Guo Yan, the captain of the horse, bowed first: "The little girl of the minister is grateful!" ”

A kneeling sound immediately sounded in the hall: "Thank you, Holy Lord!" ”

Pei Yan smiled and sent the holy decree to Guo Yan's hands, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the eldest princess, congratulations to Guo Juma for regaining the pearl!" ”

The eldest princess got up first when she heard this: "It is really an honor for the little girl to be able to drive the Pei She people to come to announce the decree!" ”

"The eldest princess is old." Although Pei Yan said this, he smiled heartily, obviously making him very useful by this.

The eldest princess was telling the truth. Pei Yan is more than 50 years old this year, and his official position is that of a scholar in the middle school, responsible for making edicts for the saints and propagating edicts. On the surface, it is his duty to come to proclaim the decree today, but because of his advanced age and the fact that he is very much used by the saints, he no longer needs to go out in person for the usual proclamation, and it is even rumored in the DPRK that he is about to enter the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister.

And today is just to canonize a county lord, but the saint let Pei Yan go out in person, which shows how much attention is paid to the eldest princess to find her beloved daughter.

Pei Yan chatted with the eldest princess and his wife for a while, and hurried back to the palace because he wanted to rush back to return to the Son of Heaven. After he left, the eldest princess showed a little smug joy, pulled Xilingyue with a blank face, and said with a smile: "Good boy, from now on, you will be the county lord of the second grade, and the name given by the saint!" ”

Xiling Yue didn't know much about the rank of the life woman, and couldn't help but ask, "Xichuan County Lord?" Is it the same as the county lord of Qizhou? ”

"How can this be the same!" The eldest princess explained smugly, "Although Qin Se is the county lord, he is a title handed down according to the system. You are different, since the founding of our Tang Dynasty, no, no, even in the previous dynasty, there was no county lord with the title of 'Xichuan'! Isn't this just for you? ”

The special title of the saint is indeed an honor, Xilingyue understands it.

Guo Yan also read the holy decree carefully, and sighed: "Not only is there a special title, but also 2,000 households of food, this is the treatment that only the county lord has!" ”

Guo Zhongting also nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes, the county lord named Cong Erpin, enjoy the treatment of Cong Yi Pin, sister, you are a county lord with a lot of weight!" ”

Xiling Yue was confused: "In that case, why didn't the Holy Lord directly crown me as the county lord?" ”

Before she finished speaking, the eldest princess had already covered her cherry lips: "Silly child, you dare to put your beak in the will of the saint?" Only the daughter of the crown prince in my court can canonize the county lord, and even your title of county lord is beyond the system! ”

Xilingyue was still at a loss: "But...... Isn't the county lord of Qizhou also the county lord? She is a descendant of Hu Guogong, is she also over-canonized? ”

"That's not counting, she is nominally the adopted daughter of Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother." Guo Yan solved her doubts.

Xilingyue finally figured it out, but she still felt a headache, so the eldest princess laughed at her: "Silly child, what are you compared to Qin Se, how can she be an orphan girl from a middle-class family?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Guo Zhongting immediately smiled, and Xilingyue also faintly heard it, it seemed that the eldest princess didn't like Qin Se, at least she didn't look down on her.

Guo Yan saw that there was suddenly no topic in the room, so he smiled and said: "Actually, these are all false names, and the real gift is that the Holy Lord has given Yue'er a proper name." Lingyue, Guo Lingyue, what a good name! ”

"Is there anything special about the name?" Xiling Yue asked again curiously.

"That's not it, 'Ling' is the generation of the Guo family's daughter, and 'Yue' is the name given to you by the Holy God."

Xilingyue couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this. The word "Ling" is the generation of the daughter of the Guo family, and the word "Yue" has been with her for 18 years, even if there is no name from the saint, the eldest princess and his wife also call her "Yue'er".
