Chapter 139: I'm Happy
The night of late spring is always not very noticeable.
Not as cool as the summer night, not as clear as the winter night, not as warm as the autumn night, perhaps, only when the breeze blows, can people feel a trace of softness.
Perhaps because of the past, at this time of year, Qin Changhuan didn't like to go out.
It will even be stuffy in the room for a month.
It was already three o'clock, and the night was getting darker and darker, splashing the entire inner courtyard of the palace like ink, and only a ray of white moonlight shone into the ground along the window.
Cuizhu and the others went back to the room to sleep, but Qin Changhuan couldn't close his eyes after turning over and over.
In the first few months when she arrived in Chuzhou, she couldn't close her eyes no matter what, she was really sleepy, and the faces of the dead soldiers of Southern Qin kept coming to her mind, as well as the tragic situation when Qin Yunge was skinned and cramped when the Qin family was wiped out.
She had to hug herself in the corner of the bed, crying silently.
But three years have passed, and the hatred is still strong, but she is no longer the innocent girl who wants to die when she is betrayed.
Lifting the quilt, she stepped on the moonlight to push open the door, and easily jumped onto the roof of the main hall of the Fuhua Palace.
Then he looked down at the palace in the distance, and the night was really late, except for the patrolling palace guards, there was nothing else.
She had been living in this Ember Palace for two months, and there was no news of Zhan Yunyuan and Yunyi Moon Shadow for a long time, so she was really a little impatient to wait.
Although she didn't say it on the face, she already had some plans in her heart, she just inquired about the news a few days ago, and half a month later, there would be a Beiyan envoy into Dongyan, and then, she would go back to Beiyan with the envoy all the way, which was the safest choice.
Can...... She couldn't help but think of Tang Ruoxu, it was he who brought her to Dongyan, although it must have a purpose, but he was always half sincere.
Qin Changhuan remembered that in the evening, Tang Ruoling came to tell her what time she would leave tomorrow, and whispered that Tang Ruoxu didn't go to familiarize herself with any rituals in the afternoon, but stuffed herself in the East Palace, and lunch and dinner were useless.
Could it be that he was really annoyed by what he said during the day?
Qin Changhuan thought about it, he always had to inform him about the matter of returning to Beiyan, taking advantage of the dark night and high wind, it was a good time to break into the palace and talk about his heart.
There were still two small jars of walnut wine left in the kitchen, she found a rope to tie it, and walked out of the Fuhua Palace on the cornice, heading in the direction of the East Palace.
I hope to get up tomorrow morning, Cuizhu doesn't blame her for drinking all the walnut wine, it's a big deal, she will compensate her for two more pearl hairpins, anyway, the Ember Emperor has really rewarded her too much.
But those are all things outside the body for her, and they are also a burden to carry.
jumped on the roof of the apse of the East Palace, and sure enough, he saw that Tang Ruoxu's bedroom was still brightly lit.
Bypassing the sleepy guards at the door, Qin Changhuan tiptoed open the side window sash, and was just about to jump in, when the sound of drawing a sword in her ears swished, and a cool thing fell between her neck.
"Who is it?" Lin Zhi's face was cold, and his tone was naturally as cold as freezing three feet of snow.
Qin Changhuan sighed heavily, "How could I forget you!" She raised her hand and slapped her head.
With two smacks, Lin Zhi put his sword back into its sheath and bowed down at the same time, "Miss Qin, I didn't know it was you, please don't blame it." ”
Qin Changhuan shook his head, and the two small altars he was carrying in his hand collided and made a crisp sound, Lin Zhi couldn't help but look at it, as if he couldn't take his eyes off.
"What? Afraid that I will poison your master? She raised her eyebrows and approached him curiously, with a little charm in her eyes, "Why don't I drink it for you?" ”
Lin Zhi's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his eyes were almost straight.
Following Tang Ruoxu's side, he has seen a lot of charming women, but like Qin Changhuan, he interprets the word Mei so naturally, like a woman carved into his bones, he really saw it for the first time.
Just slightly hooked the lips, and there are already a thousand styles.
"Lin Zhi is still unemployed, don't scare him."
Tang Ruoxu's voice without any emotion came from inside the room.
Qin Changhuan chuckled, patted Lin Zhi on the shoulder, and jumped into Tang Ruoxu's bedroom.
Lin Zhi came back to his senses in a daze, although the people in Dongshen were open, he could enter and leave the man's boudoir at will like this, I am afraid that Qin Changhuan was the only one.
In the room, Tang Ruoxu happened to sit in front of the desk reading a book for a long time, knowing that she had come in, but she didn't move, staring at the scroll and frowning, I don't know if she was completely attracted by some good-looking plot, as if she didn't ask about the world.
Qin Changhuan put the walnut wine in front of him and snorted, "What?" Are you still angry with me? I'm not here, it's a big deal that you can say a few words about me. ”
Lifting the front swing, she sat opposite Tang Ruoxu, supporting the table with her arms on the table, and looking at him with her face in her hands.
The flush on the face is just the right amount of pink, the bun has become a little loose, a few strands of messy hair float in front of the forehead, occasionally blown by the wind outside the window, softly passing in front of the eyes, there is a feeling of itching.
Tang Ruoxu put down the scroll and looked at her, for some reason, he only remembered the words "peach blossoms".
"You've finally taken care of me." Qin Changhuan smiled easily, raised his hand to roll up his wide sleeves, opened a jar of walnut wine, and sniffed it with his nose at the mouth of the altar, "En...... Cuizhu's craftsmanship is really good, it's a pity, you left early, didn't enjoy such a delicious pure wine, no, I specially brought you to apologize, I heard, you haven't eaten all afternoon? That's not going to work. ”
I don't know if the wind on the spring night is too soft, and the smoke makes people a little drunk, Qin Changhuan feels like a chatter for the first time.
However, after all, she made Tang Ruoxu angry, and she always had to make serious amends.
"One person, one altar, fair and just!"
Her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, her eyes were like spring water, and her face was covered with a layer of mist by the dim light of the room, which added a bit of softness to this quiet and peaceful night.
It's not like Qin Changhuan in the daytime, he always has a light face, and he can't float any emotions.
"Lin Zhi, find someone to bring the dinner hot." Tang Ruoxu commanded softly, poured himself another glass of wine, and drank it all, "Can't you sleep before you think of me?" ”
Outsiders only feel ambiguous when they hear this, not to mention Tang Ruoxu's tone, which sounds like he is jealous and coquettish, but his face is serious and unpredictable.
Qin Changhuan never regarded him as a man, in her eyes, they were the same kind of people, and they all had their own goals. So this sentence sounded to her as just a statement of facts.
"How do you know, alas...... These days are not as good as sleeping soundly when I first arrived in Dongshen. She didn't use a cup, but held the altar and took a sip with her head up.
Although the walnut wine has the mellow fragrance of September, the wine is still strong and spicy, which makes people frown and smack their tongues.
Tang Ruoxu drank it all from the cup, and took out a note from the scroll, with gold seals sprinkled on it, which was a special paper for the East Palace to communicate with the outside world.
"I just got the news, thinking about it for you tomorrow."
Qin Changhuan took it in front of her eyes and read it carefully, her eyes changed from plain to surprised, and the indescribable joy made her can't help but pick up the wine and fight him. bumped into it, and then got up and took a few big sips, like a proud and ambitious soldier.
She was happy, not only because the news said that Yunyi Yueying was going to come to Dongshen with the Northern Yan Mission to find her, but also Zhan Yunyuan, no, it should be Qianchengjue, and his body had almost recovered and he was on time.
It seems that his identity has not been recognized, so he can still live safely under Yan Heng.
That's the best news in two months.
"I had the news half a month ago, but I always thought that you might be happier when the dust settled."
Seeing that she was happy, Tang Ruoxu's heart was depressed for most of the time, and when the cloud clothes and moon shadow came to the east embers, would she not think about leaving so quickly, but he didn't know what the meaning of Qiancheng was definitely to her.
These days, not only did he find out some things about Yunyi Moon Shadow and the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Palace, but he also found out that Qiancheng Jue seemed to be involved in the massacre three years ago.
In that case, how could Qin Changhuan be so happy? Could it be that Qiancheng has nothing else besides the identity of the regent of Beiyan? Or, what deal did he have with Qin Changhuan?
"This is the happiest you've ever seen you."
He's a little unused to it.
Qin Changhuan grinned, as if any barriers had disappeared without a trace in an instant.
She is like this, without the unapproachable coldness, but makes people feel a little cute, and even wants to rush forward and knead her face.
Lin Zhi happened to send food in, it was late at night, and he didn't let anyone else disturb Tang Ruoxu and Qin Changhuan's night talk, so he only sent it in by himself.
Who knew that when Qin Changhuan saw him, he suddenly stepped forward happily, hooked him around his neck and hugged him in front of him, Lin Zhi was stupid, if he wasn't well-trained, the food plate in his hand would have been beaten.
"Guard Lin, are you happy?"
Lin Zhi desperately looked at Tang Ruoxu for help, he really couldn't stand a woman like Qin Changhuan by his side, and he was still so close.
But Tang Ruoxu didn't see it, and just cared about drinking while reading.
Lin Zhi's throat rolled again, "I, happy." ”
Qin Changhuan suddenly slapped him on the shoulder, "How happy?" Tell me? She suddenly snatched the food plate he was carrying, put it on the table, picked up the wine and poured a glass for Lin Zhiye and sent it to him, "Come, if you are happy, you have to drink, right!" ”
Lin Zhi didn't dare to take the wine glass, so he only arched his hand and said, "Miss Qin, there are important things tomorrow, I'm sorry I can't drink." As soon as the words fell, he ran out of the room in a panic, and almost forgot to close the door.
Qin Changhuan pursed his lips, drank all the wine in the cup, and sat back in front of the desk.
"Alas...... You're a bit old-fashioned. ”
Tang Ruoxu didn't raise his head, only a helpless smile on his lips.
"He's not as battle-hardened as you, as I said, he's not in the field."
Qin Changhuan laughed stupidly, "That's what is wrong with you, who is the master, you will only call people all day long, and you will not let people find a beloved girl to start a family, tsk......t"
She shook her head in distress, and then picked up the jar again.
Tang Ruoxu quickly grabbed her wrist, "Drink less, this walnut wine has a lot of stamina, be careful and uncomfortable if you drink too much." His eyes were one of concern.
But Qin Changhuan broke away at once, and his blurry eyes blinked a few times, "I'm happy, I want to drink." ”
"Are you for Yunyi or for a thousand cities?"
