Chapter 407: Creation Makes People
"So, the last time we disassembled the information was wrong? Those feudal towns, the restoration route of the Wu family's orphans, have all guessed wrong? Bai Juyi was a little deflated.
"Not necessarily." Li Chengxuan analyzed again, "Wang Zi'an is known as the head of the 'Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty', if he wants to hint at one thing, it is impossible to just use the method of splitting words to piece together a sentence, it is too simple. I don't think Xiling's method is wrong, but I don't know if this is the ultimate secret hidden by the Empress Wu. ”
"Probably not." Xilingyue was the first to deny, "There are too many clues in the Preface to King Teng's Pavilion!" And the four-rhyme poem, I don't know what it means at all. If the secret of Empress Wu is the route of restoration, in fact, it cannot be hidden, and those who are interested only need to find out all the locations in the article and mark them on the map, and they can immediately see the problem. ”
"You're telling me that those locations aren't restoration routes, they're all guesses?" The more Guo Zhongting listened, the more confused he became.
No one knows the answer.
Maybe that's the restoration route, or maybe not. Maybe that's the ultimate secret of the martial queen, or maybe it's just part of it.
But as Xilingyue said, at least they have one more clue to advance - picking words and making up sentences.
At this point, several people had a headache, and Li Chengxuan saw that there was no progress, so he said to a few people: "Okay, let's stop here today." Now that you're in my house, let's do a routine 'passing.'" ”
He said that he was about to order his subordinates to set the meal, but Bai Juyi and Guo Zhongting refused one after another.
Bai Juyi first explained: "Xia Guan and Yuan Wei have not seen each other for two years, and they have made an appointment to extend the invitation in the mansion, his filial piety has not expired, and he will return to Luoyang tomorrow, and Xia Guan is really not good to reschedule." ”
Guo Zhongting also said the reason: "Ah! I also had an appointment at noon, and my former classmates invited me to come over to catch up, and I agreed. ”
"Classmates catching up?" Li Chengxuan smiled transparently and did not break it.
Guo Zhongting blushed for the first time, and said, "Uh, okay, it's not a classmate." He specially told a few people, "Don't tell my parents, I ......."
His words stopped at the point, and Li Chengxuan and Bai Juyi both nodded clearly.
Only Xiling Yue chased after her, surprised and surprised: "Brother Zhongting, you won't be a sweetheart, right?" Who is it? Are you really getting married this year? ”
Guo Zhongting's ears were red when he was asked, and he hurriedly haha: "This situation is more complicated, I can't say it now, I'll tell you later." ”
Where is Xiling Yue willing to let him go, and when he wants to ask again, Li Chengxuan has already received his gaze for help, and said to rescue him in a timely manner: "Okay Xiling, let him and Master Bai go first, and I'll send you back." ”
"Not 'passing the seat' anymore?" Xiling Yue pretended to be displeased.
Li Chengxuan hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to respond to her.
Guo Zhongting and Bai Juyi glanced at each other, and both had a look of worry in their eyes. However, both of them believed in Li Chengxuan's self-control, and finally did not say anything more and left together.
Xiling Yue saw that everyone was gone, so she asked the coachman to bring in the things she had put in the carriage. It was a very small brocade box, and she handed it to Li Chengxuan: "Lord Wang, this is my New Year's gift to you." ”
Li Chengxuan was slightly surprised, then showed a handsome smile, took the brocade box and replied lightly: "Thank you." ”
"You're welcome." Xi Lingyue deliberately explained, "What I saw by chance when I went shopping a few years ago was not something valuable. ”
As her words fell, Li Chengxuan had already opened the brocade box, and at a glance, his eyes were already surging, and all kinds of emotions were extremely complicated-
This is a set of eight jade pendants, including mutton fat white jade, Dushan jade, jade, agate...... There are a total of eight kinds of jade and eight colors, which are carved with eight different landscapes: Longmen Mountain Color, Horse Temple Bells, Jingu Spring Weather, Luopu Autumn Breeze, Tianjin Dawn Moon, Copper Camel Twilight Rain, Pingquan Pilgrimage Tour, and Pishan Evening View.
It is the eight views of Luoyang.
"There was a foreigner named Liu Zongyuan in the Ministry of Rites, and he rated the 'Eight Views of Luoyang', and this 'Longmen Mountain' was the first scene."
"I'd love to see them all."
"What's so hard about that? Except for the 'Golden Valley Spring Clear', the remaining seven scenic spots cannot be missed. ”
"Great, the prince must take me!"
"There is no good thing without you."
……
The conversation of last year's Mid-Autumn Festival is still in my ears, but it can be ...... in a blink of an eye Creation makes people.
Li Chengxuan didn't know why she wanted to give such a set of gifts, he didn't want to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it, so he could only close the brocade box with a smile and replied lightly: "The girl's house always has bells and whistles when buying things. ”
"You don't like it?" Xiling Yue opened her smart eyes and asked nervously.
Li Chengxuan's right hand on the brocade box tightened slightly. In the face of such a pair of autumn water cut eyes, he couldn't lie, so he could only talk to him left and right: "What do you want to eat for lunch?" I asked the cook to do it. ”
Xilingyue was silent for a moment when she heard this, and couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes: "Whatever." ”
Since the end of the Shengchengang case, Li Chengxuan has been living in seclusion and cut off contact with the outside world. It wasn't until the news of Li Qi's rebellion came that Li Chun remembered him again, summoned him to the palace several times to inquire about the situation in Zhenhai, and entrusted him with the important task of finding His Royal Highness Kangxing.
But she never had the chance to be alone with him, let alone analyze the case. She couldn't even say a word of concern, and every time she saw him, she was in a hurry, unable to speak because of the large number of people.
The tacit understanding of investigating cases side by side, the friendship of sharing adversity, and the help extended in times of danger several times...... Just because of the change of her identity, everything
It became a memory.
In fact, she didn't ask for much, she just wanted to ask him how he was doing recently, whether he had stepped out of the shadow of the Empress Dowager, if he needed her help, and what she could do for him. However, he only coped with detachment.
This lunch was extremely boring. Li Chengxuan was speechless, Xilingyue was speechless, the two were relatively speechless, and neither had much appetite. It wasn't until after the meal that Li Chengxuan offered to send her home, that Xilingyue finally mustered up the courage to ask: "Lord Wang, do you have to do this to me?" ”
Li Chengxuan deliberately pretended to be casual: "Huh? What do you mean? ”
"As you said, you still treat me as a friend."
Li Chengxuan smiled lightly: "Yes, what?" ”
"Do you think of me as a friend now?" Xiling Yue pierced directly, "You are clearly deliberately alienating me!" ”
Li Chengxuan sneered: "This is childish." He even reached out and patted her on the shoulder, as if to comfort the junior, and said in a kind voice, "Let's go, I'll send you back." ”
His appearance of rejecting people thousands of miles away made Xilingyue at a loss, as if she had accumulated all her strength and punched violently, but she was hit hard in the air, full of emotions and nowhere to vent.
She looked at him, and he kept looking away, his expression unconcerned.
