Since Qiu Luoxue left, Xia Zimo has returned to a boring state, going to court every day, criticizing and dealing with political affairs, and occasionally playing chess with himself. originally thought that if Qiu Luoxue was driven far away, his heart would be able to be recovered. The fact is that Qiu Luoxue is far away, and his heart is also far away.

On this day, Xia Zimo played chess with himself in the Fubi Pavilion, and the chess game could no longer attract him, and his thoughts would return to the scene of playing chess with Qiu Luoxue for the first time from time to time. It was the height of summer, and the lotus flowers were blooming vigorously. It's late summer, and the sun is still sparkling on the water, but lotus flowers are rare. Occasionally, there are a few residual lotuses, swaying in the water. Although the lotus flowers have fallen, the lotus leaves are growing very luxuriantly, and from a distance, they are already taller than the pond. The lotus leaves are one after another, and the huge lotus leaves grow luxuriantly against the sun. From the angle of Fubi-tei, it grows along the pond in an arc.

Today is a sunny day, the sky is blue, and white clouds are piled up in the sky, layer by layer, like a cross-section that has been cut by a knife. The clouds were thick, as if they were carved from the heavenly palace. The clear blue sky and heavy white clouds are cast into the clear lake, and the lotus leaves complement each other.

With such a beautiful scenery, Xia Zimo was not in the mood to appreciate it, looking at those were boring, and he was not interested in playing chess.

"Your Majesty came in, and his interest was much lighter." Jin Fu looked at the absent-minded Xia Zimo and said, his brows furrowed slightly, and he couldn't see a happy look.

Xia Zimo put down the chess pieces in his hand, sighed, and said, "There is nothing that can be mentioned to be interesting."

"There are some new tunes in the Royal Music Workshop, do you want to listen to them?" Kim Bok asked.

Jin Fu watched Xia Zimo grow up, and he sincerely hoped that he could do well. If Qiu Luoxue is a woman, he is still very happy that Xia Zimo has a woman he likes. But he is a man, so he can only give up as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, the concubine heard that you are playing chess again, so she took the liberty to come here, and I hope that Your Majesty will forgive your sins." A richly dressed woman appeared in Fubi Pavilion and said with a smile.

Xia Zimo was disturbed for no reason, his brows furrowed, he was very displeased, and when he saw the eunuch who followed the woman, he said, "Didn't I tell people not to come?"

The eunuch heard Xia Zimo's anger, immediately knelt down, and said, "The emperor atones for his sins, and the slave ......."

"Your Majesty, don't blame him, it's the concubine herself who wants to come. The concubines were loved by the emperor, sealed the position of the concubine, and held the phoenix seal, so they did not dare to stop the concubines. If Your Majesty wants to blame, blame the concubines. Jiang Yuyan also knelt down and pleaded.

Xia Zimo glanced at the eunuch and said, "Don't take it as an example."

"Yes, Emperor Xie." The eunuch said.

"Get up." Xia Zimo's attitude seemed very flat.

Jiang Yuyan also felt Xia Zimo's indifferent attitude, in order to arouse his interest in herself, after she got up, she said, "Your Majesty is playing chess?" When Yu Yan was in the boudoir, she practiced chess for a while, and accompanied His Majesty to relieve her boredom in the next game. Saying that, she took the initiative to sit opposite Xia Zimo.

"Don't do it." Before Jiang Yuyan's ass touched the stool, Xia Zimo suddenly said, with a domineering spirit that could not be resisted.

Jiang Yuyan was naturally very embarrassed, and it was not impossible to sit down now, not to mention that there were many subordinates watching, which made her lose face. No matter how calm she was, her face was still a little unbearable.

"The position opposite me, only one person can do it, and no one can do it except him." When Xia Zimo said this, what appeared in front of him was Qiu Luoxue's expression of meditating in that position, thinking about how to make the next move.

Jiang Yuyan is a caring person, she wrote down his words, and secretly listed the person Xia Zimo said as an enemy, although she doesn't know who that person is now, but sooner or later she will find out.

There was a "pop", it was the sound of things falling from the table from the ground, Jiang Yuyan threw all the things on the dresser down, and she was very annoyed when she remembered what she had experienced in Fubi Pavilion. Of course, this fire was not directed at Xia Zimo, but on the person who could sit opposite him as Xia Zimo said. Jiang Yuyan still thinks that Xia Zimo should be talking about a woman, and her investigation direction will be a woman in the future.

"Let's check, which concubines have been summoned by the emperor recently, and who have been close to the emperor privately, and they are not allowed to let go of the slightest sign." Jiang Yuyan gritted her teeth and said, the gentle attitude in front of Xia Zimo has completely disappeared, and she is the same as before.

It was already ten minutes of sunset, and the five of Qiu Luoxue were moving a little slower during the day, so that they were still far from the place where they landed. So I decided to stop in a forest and camp out here at night. This is a completely novel experience for Qiu Luoxue, and she has always shown great interest.

"Aren't we going to hunt or fish or something?" Qiu Luoxue's curious eyes rolled around.

"What are you hunting for?" Xia Ziyan asked rhetorically.

"What else can you do while hunting, of course you eat." Qiu Luoxue said angrily, she found that no matter what she said, Xia Ziyan would have objections, and she really shouldn't have brought him.

"We still have some dry food, let's eat it alive, and we can eat well when we get to town tomorrow." Su Mufei said.

Qiu Luoxue complained with a frustrated face: "Why are you so uninteresting, how can you sleep in the wild and eat dry food, you are not worthy at all, I think everyone is hunting and fishing."

"Where are people who haven't even been out of the capital looking at these?" Xia Ziyan said disdainfully.

"I ......" Qiu Luoxue almost blurted out what she saw on TV, but fortunately she held back in time and changed her words: "What I read in the book, those chivalrous people will hunt."

"Do you want to do those?" Nie Yuan, who had not spoken, suddenly asked.

Qiu Luoxue nodded excitedly, her eyes full of anticipation. Perhaps it was this overly expectant look that moved Nie Yuan, and he said, "Let's go, I'll go with you."

"I'm going too." Su Muyi heard that they were going to hunt, and she was also interested, anyway, there was still a period of time before dark, instead of sitting like this, it was better to find something interesting to do.

"In that case, let's split up, one group hunting, one group fishing. Lord Qiu's two wishes can be fulfilled. Su Mufei proposed.

"I'm going hunting with Nie Shishi." After Su Mufei finished speaking, Qiu Luoxue hurriedly said, and after speaking, he pulled Nie Yuan away.

"I'll go too." Su Muyi shouted and followed the two of them.

In the end, only Su Mufei and Xia Ziyan were left, and they didn't have to choose, Su Mufei said helplessly: "It seems that we can only fish."

"No, this king is not a fisherman." Xia Ziyan said disgustedly.

"This prince is not a fisherman." Su Mufei said, the two glanced at each other, and then smiled helplessly, fishing means going into the water, and the two of them are busy today. No wonder Qiu Luoxue ran away wittily first.

"Nie Shishi, when will my letter be delivered to the capital?" Qiu Luoxue asked as she walked deeper into the woods.

"Faith, what faith?" Su Muyi asked.

"We are not too far from the capital, and we should be sent to the capital today." Nie Yuan replied to Qiu Luoxue's words.

Xia Zimo, who was far away in the capital, received a letter from the shadow guard, which was said to have been written to him by Qiu Luoxue, and after receiving the letter, he put it aside and didn't read it. But from time to time, his eyes fell on the letter, which showed that he really wanted to read it.

If you put a tempting piece of pastry in front of a child and you tell him not to eat it. The aroma of the pastry lingers in his nose and tempts his palate. So the child couldn't concentrate anymore, and he would look at the pastry from time to time, but because he couldn't eat it, he could only look at it. But because he couldn't eat it, in his eyes, this pastry became more and more delicious, and he wanted to eat it even more.

Now, the letter sent by Qiu Luoxue is like a child's pastry to Xia Zimo. He wanted to open the letter and see what it contained, but reason told him no. He wants to take advantage of this opportunity to dilute his feelings for Qiu Luoxue. As the king of a country, he can do many things that ordinary people can't or can't do, but he can't fall in love with a man; As the king of a country, he can have many things that ordinary people can't have, but he can't have Qiu Luoxue; As the king of a country, he must take on his responsibility, and for that responsibility he has to give up some things, even the ones he cherishes the most, such as Qiu Luoxue.

Xia Zimo looked at the letter placed in front of him, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "I actually like a man, the world will definitely think I am ridiculous." But I ...... But I felt that feeling so good that I didn't want to give up. ”

His eyes fell on the letter again, and Xia Zimo finally couldn't help but open it. The first sentence at the beginning reads: The first day I left the capital, I thought about it.

The letter has no title and no signature. The font looks a bit childish, and there are typos on it. But it's no wonder that Qiu Luoxue, in ancient times, she wrote traditional characters, although she has studied very seriously and corrected her writing habits very seriously, but sometimes she will subconsciously write simplified characters. Habits of this kind of thing can't be changed overnight, and more importantly, she believes that Xia Zimo's comprehension ability should be able to read.

"The fonts are getting ugly." It was obviously a disgusting word, but Xia Zimo had a smile on the corner of his mouth when he spoke. Seeing this font is like seeing autumn snow.

Qiu Luoxue wrote this letter on the first night after leaving the capital, sitting at the desk in front of the inn window, in the dim light, thinking about how to write this letter. She bit the head of the brush and looked at the blank paper, on which her shadow fell as the moonlight sprinkled on it.

Is it because of this? Because of this, after Xia Zimo reads this letter now, will he feel that there is a figure of Qiu Luoxue on it?
