Wan Dynasty will always be three days a small banquet five days a big feast, this year's May 30 is the Queen Mother's 50th birthday, Wan Dynasty will begin to miss the Queen Mother's birthday, the envoys of various countries to show respect for the Queen Mother, in the name of the name of the Congratulations again into the palace party. But the Queen Mother was happy to be quiet, so this time she invited the royal family members of several important countries to the Yongshou Palace to ask for peace, and the others were arranged to listen to the play in Changyin Pavilion, and set up a banquet in the main hall and side hall of Qianqiu in the evening. None of the envoys of the countries, who were enjoying the joyous atmosphere at this time, would have thought that an unexpected bad luck would befall some unfortunate ones tonight.

At the court meeting four days ago, only officials and concubines above the third rank were allowed to attend, but today the adults who listened to the opera and feasted and drank above the third rank could bring their families into the palace, and the noble concubines and concubines could attend.

That day, in the Chengguang Palace, Li Jingxi looked at King Jing from afar, almost a year had passed since the last time they met, and she was sad when she looked at Duan Yuhua's much clearer figure. Listening to the play in Changyin Pavilion today, the two of them are not far away, but the three or five tables across them seem to be an insurmountable gap in the middle. Li Jingxi was in a bad mood, and even felt bored watching the drama on stage, she felt bored and wanted to go out for a walk, but Zimo accompanied her carefully. Duan Yuhua at the other end had actually been paying close attention to Li Jingxi's movements, and when he saw her leave the table, he also used the excuse of changing clothes to leave the Changyin Pavilion in a moment.

There is a willow garden near Changyin Pavilion, the garden is full of green willows, there is also a small blue wave lake in the center, a bamboo curtain corner pavilion is set up in each square of the garden, it is a good place to enjoy the cool in summer in the summer. Li Jingxi and Duan Yuhua came here together, Li Jingxi pushed aside the weeping willow branches in front of him, and Duan Yuhua's lonely figure came into view. Duan Yuhua seemed to have known that it was her, turned his head and smiled happily at her, Li Jingxi pinned herself in place and couldn't advance or retreat, Zimo quietly walked away......

Duan Yuhua paced in front of Li Jingxi and didn't say hello, but inexplicably chanted a poem: "There are arbors in the south, don't think about it." Han has a wandering girl, unthinkable. The breadth of the Han is incomprehensible. Jiang Zhiyong is incomprehensible. [ Excerpt from "The Book of Songs: Zhou Nan."] It is a love poem in which the lyrical protagonist is a young man who is in love with a beautiful girl, but never gets his wish. Entangled, unable to be relieved, in the face of the vast river, he sang this moving love song and poured out his sorrows. After reading the poem, Duan Yuhua didn't speak, just staring at Li Jingxi with burning eyes.

Li Jingxi struggled inwardly, not knowing whether to step forward or retreat, she tightly held the shawl on her arm and fought for a while, but finally became cowardly. She turned around and wanted to escape, but was firmly grabbed by Duan Yuhua, who took the initiative to attack. Oh, my God! How dare he be so bold? In broad daylight, he pulled the emperor's concubines regardless of etiquette! Duan Yuhua seemed to be able to read what she was thinking, so she couldn't help but pull her and rush to the quietest pavilion in the northwest corner of Liuyuan.

"Is the prince crazy! What does this do? Li was stunned by his crazy actions, and her heart beat so fast that it almost exploded. But Duan Yuhua ignored it, didn't answer, and put down the bamboo curtains on all sides of the pavilion by himself. Li Jingxi saw that he blocked the pavilion with a bamboo curtain, and she was even more anxious, if this was seen, they would not be able to wash it even if they jumped into the Yellow River! She stopped him anxiously and angrily: "Duan Yuhua, stop for me!" ”

"This is the first time you've called me by my name. So can I call you by your first name too? Graceful ......" Duan Yuhua slowly approached Graceful, gently held up her hand, stretched out the fingers she had been holding fiercely one by one, and said softly: "You don't have to be nervous, I won't do anything to you." I'm here today just to tell you...... My true heart. ”

"This palace doesn't understand what the prince is saying, and he doesn't want to listen to it. Hongu is going back! Li Jingxi once again wrapped herself in the hard shell of "imperial concubine", and she was not allowed to bury the lives of the two because of her temporary softness. She can't hurt him!

"Every time you're scared, you bite the word 'Hongu' with all your might. What are you afraid of? What do you want to escape? Li tried hard to pull her hand out of his palm, but he clung to it.

"You let go of me! I'm not running away! Li Jingxi didn't dare to make a loud noise, she was afraid that someone would come here when they heard the noise.

"I want to let you go, unless you're willing to listen to me." Duan Yuhua grabbed her arms and dragged them to her side, and the distance between the two suddenly got closer.

"Okay, you say, I'll listen." Li had no choice but to surrender, she was afraid that if she didn't agree to him, she would be pulled into his arms.

So the two of them sat in a corner of the pavilion, and Duan Yuhua began to tell his thoughts: "On the tenth day of the first month, we looked at each other from afar in the Chengguang Palace, and it was a full two hundred and fifty-one days and nights since the last time we met each other. In these more than 200 days, there was not a single night when I was not tossing and turning and not sleeping. You should know that I have been away from Yong'an City for many years, and I have always been reluctant to stay in this suffocating imperial city. But ever since I met you, I have always seen in my dreams the shore of Xinxue Lake on a full moon night, and there is always a figure there that haunts me...... It was such a dream that even I thought was absurd, but it bound my wings of longing for freedom. I am willing to give up my freedom for her to stay in the capital willingly, and even find various opportunities to enter the palace, just hoping to meet her by chance. I know it's stupid, but I just don't want to give up! I know, this is love......" These words hidden in the bottom of his heart are not unhappy, he is tormented by the torment of love, and he has been thinking about it for a few days, and finally made up his mind to show his heart to her. Duan Yuhua suddenly leaned forward and grabbed Li Jingxi's hands and said, "Graceful, I know that I can't change the fact that you are already the emperor's brother and concubine; Nor do I dare expect you to respond warmly to my feelings; I won't ask you to make any sacrifices for me...... I just want to know...... Have you ever had me in your heart? By the end of the sentence, his voice trembled.

Li Jingxi stood up silently, she turned her back to Duan Yuhua and seemed to want to see through the scenery blocked by the bamboo curtain, and opened her mouth quietly: "The mountains have trees and branches, and the heart is happy and you don't know." As soon as the classic sentence in the Yue Ren song came out, she seemed to hear the crisp sound of the rusty lock breaking in her heart, and she was free from then on! Nothing can stop the spark of love in her heart from spreading into a raging flame like a prairie fire.

"Graceful ......" Duan Yuhua couldn't help himself, and gently hugged her from behind.

Li Jingxi is more greedy than Duan Yuhua, she is not satisfied with the two only knowing each other in soul, she wants to be with him! Even if it was unlikely, at least she wanted to see him often. Li Jingxi turned around and leaned on Duan Yuhua's arms, her arms tightly hugged his waist, Duan Yuhua was stunned for a moment, and then she also wrapped her firmly.

Li Jingxi leaned on his chest and listened to his strong heartbeat: "I can't guarantee that I will be like a jade for you, I can only do my best, but I promise to keep a complete heart for you." But I don't want you to just watch me from afar and protect me; Promise me you'll do everything you can to get close to me! I will also take advantage of the privilege of visiting relatives to go out of the palace to see you every once in a while. I'll just ask you...... Do you dare to accompany me on this adventure, even at the cost of your life? It was Duan Yuhua's tightened arms that answered her.

When Li Jingxi and Duan Yuhua were immersed in the sweetness of stolen love, a pair of pale blue eyes behind the bamboo curtain flashed a trace of surprise at first, and soon they were replaced by a kind of pride in peeking through the secret.

Zimo hid on the other side of the willow garden and went around alone, but when he came back, he found that Li Jingxi was no longer there. Zimo didn't know that it was Duan Yuhua who took Li Jingxi to the northwest corner pavilion, but she was the master and waited for her to wait impatiently, so she went back to Changyin Pavilion first. Zimo doesn't like to listen to dramas, and he doesn't want to go back to join in the fun. She sat alone under the tree and admired the sparkling waves on the blue lake, but her thoughts flew far away. She wondered why she hadn't seen Xian Yuanshao's shadow for so long? It stands to reason that his presence should not be missing on such a lively occasion today!

Zimo was thinking about it, and was suddenly tightly strangled by a pair of strong and powerful arms from behind, and his familiar voice opened up like thunder: "Stinky girl, why does a person think so obsessed?" Are you thinking about me? Ha ha! "I really miss Cao Cao, Cao Cao. Zimo grabbed Xianyuan Shao's wrist in front of her chest, pouted, and gave him an over-the-shoulder fall with his hands, elbows, and legs at the same time. Xian Yuanshao was defenseless, and the quilt Zimo fell on his back. Zimo crossed his waist and laughed, and Xianyuan Shao was so angry that he shouted: "Ouch, you want to fall to death!" Dead girl, I haven't seen you for so long, and that's how you greeted the master? No light, no heavy...... It hurts to death! Then he rubbed his ass and stood up.

"Less, your rough skin and thick flesh can fall on you? Hey, why didn't I see you in Changyin Pavilion just now? "I don't know where this freak came from.

"Master doesn't listen to those babbling ghosts! Originally, I thought that I would go directly to the Qianqiu Hall for the banquet in the evening, but I guess you must be here, so I will come around here and wait for you to come out. I didn't expect to ask me to catch you in Liuyuan! It seems that I am really clever! As he spoke, he strove his non-existent beard.

"Less stinky and beautiful you! I ask you, what have you been doing for almost a year? Why didn't I see you enter the palace with your father and brother? "They haven't seen each other since the last time they had a fun time at Hiroshi Senyuan's wedding.

"Naturally, I'm getting down to business! Didn't my eldest brother go to disaster relief and suppress bandits last year and was robbed of silver taels? The emperor sent my eldest brother and I to Chuzhou to investigate the case in detail. Don't say it, it's really a bit eyebrow-raising. Once this case is resolved, I will be promoted! In this way, I am one step closer to the 'General'. Xian Yuanshao did not shy away from Zimo, and told her about the affairs of the court.

"Got eyebrows? Did you find out anything? Didn't Lord Chu of the Criminal Department check again? Several adults were also implicated...... "Zimo is a little curious about this case.

"Phew! My father said that the old thief surnamed Chu was investigating the case and that it was true to eliminate dissidents. He has been checking for a year, and it is not as good as our brother to go to Chuzhou for a few months......" Xian Yuanshao wanted to brag again, but was stopped by a glaring from the anxious Zimo, so he had to pick up the matter and say: "This is confidential, tell you that you don't want to say it!" We found an organization called 'Ghost Gate', which seems to be related to the case, but we can't be sure yet. ”

"'Ghost Gate'......" Zimo fell into deep thought, his expression was sad and joyful.

"Hey, hey! Come back to your senses! What do you think? Xian Yuanshao called Zimo several times and dangled his five fingers in front of her eyes, and Zimo reacted and knocked off his dangling "claws".

"Hey, don't talk about that! Tell me if you have encountered anything interesting in Chuzhou? "They hadn't seen each other in a long time, and she didn't want to hear all the bad things he had to say.
