Chapter 42: I Walked the Way You Walked

After dealing with the matter of the smoke willow, Qiu Luoxue felt a lot more comfortable, she had the idea of getting rid of the smoke willow from the beginning, and now it has finally come true, thanks to Xu Zhonghang.

The two of them drank and celebrated on a small island in the middle of the lake in the back garden of King Chen's mansion, and at night the lights around the pavilion were lit up, and various colored lanterns were projected on the surface of the lake, lining the lake with colorful water.

"Thank you Imperial Doctor Xu for your help." Qiu Luoxue raised the wine glass in her hand and said.

"You're welcome, just don't forget what you promised me." Xu Zhonghang raised his glass and touched Qiu Luoxue.

"I'll take you to meet her tomorrow. I haven't seen each other for almost two years, I don't know if Concubine Duanniang is still not what she used to be. After Qiu Luoxue finished speaking, she drank all the wine in the cup.

"yes, it's been almost two years." Xu Zhonghang also sighed, time flies so fast.

Then Xu Zhonghang and Qiu Luoxue drank one cup after another, and neither of them was drunk.

Xu Zhonghang looked at Qiu Luoxue in surprise and said, "The amount of wine is much better."

"There is grief in my heart, and the amount of alcohol has increased, just like Imperial Doctor Xu." Qiu Luoxue said, filling her and Xu Zhonghang's cups with wine.

The two of them drank silently in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and the bright moon was shining in the sky, creating an atmosphere for them to drink. The grief in Xu Zhonghang's heart is Duan Concubine Wu Xianchu, this woman who pretends to be Qiu Luoxue, what is the grief in her heart?

When Chen Wang passed by the back garden, he saw Xu Zhonghang and Qiu Luoxue drinking together, not only did he have doubts: "When did the two of them get so close?"

Before you know it, the leaves on the trees have turned yellow, and autumn has arrived...... How can you describe the atmosphere of this autumn? Should it be nervous?

"Run quickly, princess, and they'll catch up." Su Muyi's maid dragged her to run briskly in the forest, and the two of them were panting and sweating profusely.

The road in the forest is not easy to walk, although Su Muyi has some martial arts skills, but after all, she has not suffered much from pampering, and it is still very unsuitable to run on this uneven ground. No, before she could get far, she fell to the ground.

Su Muyi came to the royal temple to offer incense, and when her palanquin entered the forest, more than a dozen black-clothed people suddenly came out of it, all of whom were not weak in martial arts, and they were fierce, and the guards of the palace were invincible. The maid took Su Muyi and ran into the woods. They thought they were safe when they arrived at the royal temple. But he didn't think about it, how could they get rid of the martial arts pursuers behind them with only the two women?

"Princess, hurry up, hold on a little longer, and wait until you get to the royal temple." The maid said anxiously.

Saying that, she hurriedly helped Su Muyi up, wanting to move on. But the pursuers behind them did not give them a chance to breathe, and before the maid could help her up, the pursuers arrived in front of them. And the leader is Qiu Luoxue in a black dress.

"It's stupid to run when you know you can't get out." Qiu Luoxue looked at Su Muyi and said.

Su Muyi's maid protected her very loyally and said, "If you want to kill, kill me, don't touch my princess."

Qiu Luoxue took the sword from the hand of the guard on the side, put it against the maid's neck, and said with contempt: "How can your cheap life be worthy of your princess." As she spoke, she slowly moved her sword to Su Muyi's neck.

"If you kill me, my royal brother will not let you go." Su Muyi glared angrily at Qiu Luo Snow Road.

"I also said that you must have the ability to see your imperial brother alive before you can sue. How do you always do things that you are not sure of? Your imperial brother is far away in Nanliang, and he can't control the affairs of Daqin. Just like now, even though you wrote a distress letter, he still can't save you. Qiu Luoxue said with confidence.

Su Muyi snorted coldly and said, "Nan Liang's mission to pick me up is already on the way, if I die at this time, they will definitely suspect you."

"Doubt it or not, I'm fine. Why? Because Your Majesty trusts me and can't bear to let me be wronged, so when the time comes, even if it is a war with Nan Liang, he will definitely protect me. ”

"Even if Your Majesty trusts you, you are nothing more than an impostor. One day, Your Majesty will understand this, do you think Your Majesty will still protect you at that time? Su Muyi asked, it's already like this, although it is futile to resist, but at least it may be disgusting to the other party.

"Even then, you won't see it." Qiu Luoxue said that a fierce light flashed in her eyes, and with a wave of her sword, a stream of blood gushed out.

I heard a miserable cry from the forest, mixed with a woman's voice: "Princess, princess......" But soon, her voice also disappeared, and the forest returned to silence, as if no one had ever been here.

In the Yanwang Mansion, two babies were held by the maid, but for some reason, they cried loudly at the same time.

"Mother Wu, come and take a look, the prince and the county lord have been crying all the time, what can I do?" The maid asked anxiously.

The child's cry resounded throughout the palace, as if there was a great deal of sadness. But now that their father and mother are not around, who can understand their grief?

Qiu Luoxue continued to walk into the depths of the forest in a black dress, and there was no one by her side. Her light feet rustled where there were fallen leaves.

In addition to the rustling sound, the footsteps of another person sounded behind her. But Qiu Luoxue didn't mind at all, and continued to walk forward, looking at her calm expression, she should have pointed to who was following behind.

Sunlight leaks into the forest through the dense layers of leaves, and when you look up, it seems that the sun has shrunk into a small dot, refracting thousands to white rays between the gaps in the leaves, giving the forest a mysterious color.

"Donor ......"

At the end of the forest is the royal temple of Daqin, and the abbot has long been standing at the temple gate waiting for the autumn snow.

"Master......" Qiu Luoxue greeted the abbot in the posture of the Buddha.

"It's better to see than to hear, the donor really looks exactly the same as the autumn donor." The abbot said.

Qiu Luoxue smiled faintly and said, "Saying that the Qiu Shi and the Qiu Shi look alike, doesn't the master think there is a problem with this?"

The abbot smiled kindly and said, "It's the old man who said it wrong. Lord Qiu, please come inside, the distinguished guests are already waiting inside. ”

Qiu Luoxue followed the abbot into the royal temple, and the weather had already dyed the surrounding scenery with autumn colors. The monastery is clean, few people come, and occasionally a few little nuns can be seen.

Qiu Luoxue came to find Concubine Wu Xianchu today, and the abbot took her into the courtyard where Wu Xianchu lived and left. Qiu Luoxue pushed the door and walked in, the environment here is quiet and suitable for self-cultivation.

Facing the courtyard gate, is a tall and ancient tree, Qiu Luoxue can't call the name of this tree, but feels that the leaves of this tree are very dense, and now the leaves have withered yellow, and they emit a golden light under the swagger of the sun. Under the ancient tree, there was a stone table and a stone bench, and there was a person sitting there, and because of the sunlight, Qiu Luoxue could not see his face clearly for the time being.

"You're here, go in." Wu Xianchu stepped forward to welcome the autumn Luoxue.

"I'll go in first, you wait here, there's another person coming." Qiu Luoxue went in after speaking.

Wu Xianchu was waiting in front of the courtyard gate, and after a while, he saw Xu Zhonghang pacing. Xu Zhonghang also saw Wu Xianchu wearing a nun's robe. They hadn't seen each other for two years, and the thoughts and pains of the past two years seemed to have all gushed out at the moment they met, and they couldn't be suppressed.

Xu Zhonghang walked quickly towards Wu Xianchu, and Wu Xianchu also walked out of the courtyard gate. Perhaps because the mood was too urgent, the two walked and ran. When you run in front of each other, you greedily hug each other.

"Slender ......"

"AVIC ......"

They called each other's names with expressions, and in the past two years, they had called each other's names countless times, but this was the first time they had heard each other's answers.

Qiu Luoxue saw the two hugging each other through the courtyard gate, and she sighed: "There are lovers, it's better to be together after all."

"yes, to be together." A man's voice sounded, it was the one sitting under the old tree, and Qiu Luoxue was standing beside him.

"Look at me, I'm glad I've forgotten my business, let's go in quickly, your guest is already waiting inside." Wu Xianchu remembered the matter at this time, and took Xu Zhonghang's hand into the courtyard.

It's just that at this time, the people under the old tree are gone, maybe they don't want to disturb their scene, so they go into the house first.

After Xu Zhonghang and Wu Xianchu entered the room, the courtyard was completely empty, and silence was restored, and occasionally a breeze blew, blowing off the dead leaves on the old trees. Other than that, it's as quiet as a painting.

Outside the courtyard, there are occasional little nuns passing by, but they never stop here. Little by little, the sun moved westward, shining on the temple bells, on the red-tiled walls, and on the deep woods. and shined in a clean courtyard.

With a "squeak", the door opened, and Xu Zhonghang and Wu Xianchu walked out.

"Xian Chu, you must take care of the guests, and I will come to see you in a few days." Xu Zhonghang arranged.

"Don't worry, the guests are safe with me." Wu Xianchu said.

It's already afternoon, Xu Zhonghang can't stay here for too long, and Qiu Luoxue is the same. One after the other, they left the courtyard. Qiu Luoxue did not leave immediately after leaving, but walked around the temple for a while.

Walk on the deep and pure path, and let the bells of the Buddha cleanse her soul. Her slender fingers slowly ran across the red walls of the temple, letting the breeze ruffle her hair. The black dress worn by Qiu Luoxue makes her complexion fairer and outlines her figure more slender. The petite face was as delicate as before, but there were many uncertain emotions in the eyes.

On the path of the temple, two shadows appeared one after the other, the first one was Qiu Luoxue's, and the second one looked like a man's shadow. They went on and on until they reached the end of the road.

I follow you and walk the way you go, just to be closer to you.
