In the middle of the night, a waning moon only rose, the clear moonlight was indoors and outside, on the side of the ebony small case, a brazier with a square outside and a circle inside the brazier scattered the scorching heat, the black charcoal was crowded one by one, burning into a dark red, very much like the color of a rose, occasionally "peeling" sound, out of a dry explosion.

On the ebony case, the fragrant wood chessboard is sparsely covered with dozens of black and white chess pieces, and the two people who sit opposite each other have less time to watch the chess game, and there is more time to look at each other silently.

Xie Dao rubbed his chin with his fingers and said, "It's rude." Untie the crown belt under the chin, put the lacquered yarn crown on the side of the chess, and said: "The autumn wind on the road is tight, and the belt is tied tightly, and a deep mark is made. ”

Chen Caozhi smiled and looked at Xie Dao's man's bun, he had seen Xie Dao's plump hair in Cao'e Pavilion, at that time, the little maid Liu Wu was changing back into women's clothes, Chen Caozhi said: "How many times can Brother Yingtai pretend to be a man?" ”

Xie Dao lowered his voice, did not speak in a nasal Luoyang accent, his voice was like a pipe, and he turned low, and said: "When you come to Jiankang, I will still come to see you in men's clothes." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "Jianwuyi Lane, Wang and Xie are adjacent, I go to visit Xie Xuan, will my cousin Zhu Yingtai appear?" said: "I went to Jiankang for a while, my uncle and brother are in Jiankang, and I know what happened to naturalization?" ”

Xie Dao said: "Huan Da Sima proposed that the eighteen states of the Great Central Committee jointly discuss the matter of the six cold families to become scholars, it should be ~ the guest's strategy, ~ the guest's eyes are above the top, can make him appreciate you so much, really help you, Zizhong is really amazing, although you can't go this time, the people in Beijing will be more curious and look forward to you, and there is no hope for Qian Tang Chen's entry into the scholarhood." ”

Chen Caozhi: "I can't think about it, I can only wait." ”

Xie Dao sighed lightly: "Originally, my clan could help you, but now that my fourth uncle has been defeated and dismissed, I don't know how to deal with it, Chen Liuxie's foundation - Yuzhou must not be able to keep Huan Dasima has a bit of a knife to kill people, and this Yuzhou will fall into his hands." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "An Shigong has already left the mountain. Xie made a comeback. Under the most respectful An Shigong. In the mountains for the great hidden, born as a famous minister. ”

Xie Daowan smiled: "Zizhong only saw my third uncle in a hurry. Weekdays are just heard. Just obey my third uncle like this? ”

Chen Caozhi said: "Brother Yingtai and Brother Youdu are all talented. Teaching them Uncle Earth is naturally a mountain to look up to. ”

Xie Dao looked at Chen Caozhi seriously. said: "Why does Zizhong think that your words have a flattering taste." I don't like it. ”

Chen Caozhi said lightly: "I'm only telling the truth. Does Brother Yingtai think that An Shigong deserves this reputation? ”

Xie Dao said: "Deserved." ”

Chen Caozhi: "That's right. ”

Xie Dao smiled, and suddenly asked: "Zizhong, do you know that the son of 6 Na died of illness?" ”

Chen Caozhi said: "I only learned that Changkang and Xianmin came here this time, and I went to hang myself from my brother Chen Shang." ”

Xie Dao asked after a while: "Did my brother Xie Xuan say something to you this time?" When he asked this, his face did not change, and his voice trembled slightly.

Chen Caozhi said: "After asking a few words, I said that Brother Yingtai wants to be friends with me for life, and nothing else." ”

Xie Dao said "um", lowered his eyebrows, rubbed a smooth jade chess piece in his hand and raised his eyes and asked: "Zizhong, I am not a Yingtai brother, I am still a woman after all, if I want to marry another woman, I can't be with you for life, and if I want to be friends with you for life, I can't marry another woman." ”

Chen Caozhi was speechless.

Xie Daoyan smiled: "I don't mean anything else, I just feel that as a woman, I can't have a close friend, so I like to dress up as a man since I was a child." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "If there is a possibility to visit you, let me play a song for you now." ”

Xie Dao said happily: "I want to do it." ”

Chen Caozhi has always done things in an orderly manner, and said: "If you can't play this chess, I have no ambition." "Pack up the pieces first.

Xie Dao smiled, and also came to help pack up the chess pieces into the chess game, his fingers touched the back of Chen Caozhi's hand, Chen Caozhi's hand was warm, and her fingers were as warm as jade chess pieces-

Chen Caozhi was unconscious, and said: "Let the moonlight enter the house." After blowing out the goose fish lamp, he got up and walked to the window, opened the wooden window, and the cold moonlight suddenly poured in, spreading out a diagonal patch on the floor, as if a side of water cut from the Mingsheng Lake in the distance, and floated in the room without flowing.

Chen Caozhi took out the Ke Ting flute, the whole person was bathed in the moonlight, the turquoise Ke Ting flute was soft and luster, Chen Caozhi's hand holding the flute was also as white as jade, his fingers flicked a few times, his upper body leaned forward slightly, and the beautiful flute sound gushed out like a clear spring -

The rose-red charcoal fire of the brazier bloomed silently in the darkness of the four walls and the moonlight, burning one after another and cold, Xie Dao sat by the brazier, guarding the warm charcoal fire, listening to the mellow sound of the flute, time stands still, or goes backwards, all the beauty that has passed can be repeated, the nose seems to smell the fragrance of flowers, trees and leaves, at this moment, Xie Dao actually thought about sitting on the ground like this

—

When the sound of the flute sounded, the voices of debate and cheers outside were quiet for a while, Xie Xuan, Xu Miao, and Gu Kaizhi sat upright, listened attentively, and felt that there was a fresh and gratifying breath that continued to emerge with the fingers of the.

The sound of the flute stopped, and Gu Kaizhi outside took the lead in praising it: "Zizhong, this song is wonderful, there is no sentimentality in the past, it is just fresh and gratifying, what is the name of this song?" ”

Chen Caozhi put Ke Tingdi in the wooden box of the small case, looked at Xie Dao, and replied: "The title of the song is "Spring is always there". ”

Thank you "um", my heart was very moved, spring is always there, spring is always there, this is Chen Caozhi's mind-

Chen Caozhi got up and took the fish to the outside to make a fire, Xie Dao took out the Ke Diting from the wooden box, the cool pipe could no longer touch Chen Caozhi's warmth, but he saw that there were bright wet marks on the mouthpiece, which was the saliva left by Chen Caozhi when he was blowing the flute and had not been wiped clean.

Xie Dao was a little stunned, holding Ke Di slowly approaching his lips, suddenly his eyes narrowed, the pear vortex appeared, he smiled vigorously, pursed his lips and blew sharply at Ke Tingdi half a foot away, Ke Tingdi was naturally silent, but Xie Dao's face was red, as if he was so close to blowing on Chen Caozhi's lips......

The rest of the night was when Gu Kaizhi was proud, and only then did he listen to Chen Caozhi's tune, and his spirits were greatly lifted, and he used his Gu Sheng to chant poems endlessly.

Chen Caozhi and Xie Dao both went outside to cheer for Gu Kaizhi, and Xiaochan brought hot wine to everyone: you and sweet cakes.

Everyone gathered, and they didn't realize that the east was white.

After breakfast, Xie Dao and Xie Xuan said goodbye to Chen's mother and went to Jiankang on the road.

Before leaving, Xie Dao suddenly said: "There is another thing that I almost forgot to give to Zizhong." He took out two thin tablets from the carriage and handed them to Chen Caozhi: "Zizhong, this is the rubbings of Cao'e tablets written by Cao E Temple, this is the rubbings of Cao E's tablets written by Wang Youjun, you once said that you would go with me to Cao'e Temple on the other side of the river in autumn to make rubbings by yourself, and then I knew that you couldn't come, and I was going to Jiankang, and I spent the > alone at the beginning of the month." Xi Tuo brought two stickers to you. ”

Chen Caozhi, Xu Miao, and Gu Kaizhi sent Brother Xie over the small pine forest, and said thankfully: "Zizhong, Xianmin, Changkang, don't send it again, don't leave it at that." ”

Chen Caozhi Xie Dao didn't want Xu Miao and Gu Kaizhi to know her true identity, if she was sent to Fenglin Ferry and saw the Xie family's fleet entering Beijing, there were many people, wouldn't her Zhu Yingtai be exposed.

Gu Kaizhi said: "Today's parting is not as melancholy as in the past, just because I listened to Zizhong's wonderful song "Spring is Always There", I feel that my generation is in its prime, and parting is for the next reunion, so I don't have to be too sentimental." ”

Chen Caozhi smiled and said: "Changkang is right, where do you not meet in life. ”

Chen Caozhi and the three of them watched Xie Dao and Xie Xuan leave in the car, and they slowly returned to Chenjiawu, but when they saw Liu Shangzhi coming in stride, they asked, "What about Brother Yingtai?" ”

Gu Kaizhi shook his head and smiled: "Brother Shang, I didn't come yesterday, but I only came today, and Brother Yingtai has already gone away." ”

Liu Shangzhi said: "It's not far, then I'll catch up and say goodbye." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "You don't have to say goodbye, go far, come, let's appreciate the Cao E monument of Wang Youjun together." Xin said: "Xie Dao must now wash off the powder on his face in the car, comb his hair again, return to women's makeup, and it is still worth rushing over to tell her how to meet each other!" ”

……

On this day and night, Chen Caozhi accompanied his mother to talk as usual, and played a tune to his mother, who didn't have much feeling about "Spring is Always There", but only liked "Remembering the Old Man" and "Qinglian Song".

Chen Caozhi slept in the outer room of his mother's bedroom these days, and when he put on his clothes and went to the inner room to see if his mother was sleeping soundly, he saw that his mother was awake-

Chen's mother, Li, was awake most of the night, and when she saw her son coming, she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep soundly, and this time she opened her eyes and said, "Ugly, take a hawthorn pill." ”

Chen's mother, Li, slowly chewed the hawthorn pills, handed the stove to her son, and said, "Hold the stove, my mother has something to say to you." He said that he wanted Xiao ~ to wait for him.

Chen Caozhi shook his head and said: "You don't need Xiaochan to sleep, you are still young, if there is a good family, it is better to marry Sister Xiaochan." ”

Chen's mother Li said: "Mo Shituo, this matter is decided." ”

Chen Caozhi said urgently: "Mother, your old man is not in good health now, and my son doesn't want anything else, I just want my mother to be better!" ”

Chen's mother Li said: "Okay, then you promise your mother to treat Xiaochan well and keep her by your side - with Xiaochan taking care of you, your mother will be relieved." ”

Chen Caozhi had no choice but to say: "Okay, I listen to my mother's words, my mother has a good rest, don't think about these things." ”
