The night is quiet.

Gu Chuyu walked into the bamboo forest alone, he had been here before, and he knew that there was a tea shop inside, but tonight this tea shop seemed to be different from the past.

In the night, it was pitch black everywhere, but there were dozens of Chinese lanterns hanging among the green bamboos in the tea shop, illuminating a bamboo platform.

A curtain is held in front of the bamboo platform, blocking the person's view from the curtain, and the light of the light casts a person's shadow on the screen.

He could tell from the figure, and standing behind him was a graceful woman, not short, but a little thin.

Gu Chuyu walked slowly to the bamboo platform, and the sound of the piano came with the flying snow.

The light and shadow began to dance with the rhythm of the music, and the plain hands coiled up, like clouds and clouds, and turned around, and the waist was like a willow branch swinging lightly, which made people inadvertently look into the gods.

The musician played a song "Mountain Ghost":

If someone is in the mountains, he will be taken by Xue Lixi.

is both embarrassed and smiling, Zi Muyu is good at smiling.

Take the red leopard from the civet dog, and the Xinyi car is tied to the laurel flag.

was taken by Shi Lanxi to Du Heng, and he was left behind.

She moved with Shang Yu, one step at a time, exquisite, when the sound reached a high place, the water sleeve came out, she leaned back for a moment, and threw the cloud sleeve into the air.

The sleeves that are as smooth as snow pop out of the curtain and meet people's eyes, making this dance seem fake and real, making people feel like a dream......

The music stopped, and the shadow was still there, at this time her shadow seemed to be independent from the world, attracting people's attention, but through a curtain, it was difficult for him to see her true face.

Gu Chuyu stood in front of the bamboo platform and applauded, the corners of his lips rose slightly: "Miss Ji, can you come out and talk about it?" ”

The shadow behind the curtain seemed to be stunned, and it was still there, without saying a word.

How dare she speak, can she see people like this, and the person he called was Ji Nanrou.

She stood in the wind, as if she had forgotten the cold, and it was only when the snow fell on her shoulders that she felt cold to the bone.

After a while, the little maid walked up to her with a cloak, "Girl, this is given by the son outside, girl put it on." ”

Mei Xiaoren stretched out his hand to take it, unfolded it and draped it on his body, and could feel that the cloak was still stained with his residual warmth.

She yawned slightly, turned and got off the platform.

Mei Xiaoren went back to the place where she had changed her clothes just now and took her clothes, and hurriedly left the bamboo forest with her clothes without worrying about changing them.

Her heart was still beating so hard that she couldn't think that if he had just come in, or insisted on letting her out, what she had now would have been turned upside down.

Before the age of sixteen, she was an out-and-out woman, living a much the same life as those small jasper families in the south of the Yangtze River, where the daughters of the boudoir did not pay attention to reading, but emphasized female embroidery and rhythmic dance.

Mei Xiaoren didn't expect that these skills could still come in handy now, but today's move was really risky, and if there was a slight mistake, it would be difficult to recover.

She was apprehensive about this.

She has gone away, Gu Chuyu is still standing in front of the stage, and there is no pleasing shadow on the curtain. He thought back to the breathtaking dance he had just had, and he couldn't get enough of it.

Early the next morning, Mei Xiaoren sat up from the bed, dizzy, and sneezed several times.

She considered herself unlucky, dancing in the open air in the winter, and she was sorry for the snow that fell last night without being affected by the wind and cold.

During breakfast, Ye Zhi heard a thick nasal voice in her voice, and knew that she was unwell, and planned to ask a doctor to treat her, but Mei Xiaoren only said no. She hurriedly finished her meal and went out with a bag in her hand.

The Mansion of the Duke of Wei.

Mei Xiaoren is a staff member who is deeply valued by the Duke of Wei, and it is not difficult to enter and exit this place, not only did she come in, but she also easily met Ji Nanrou, who was grounded in the mansion by the Duke of Wei.

I heard that Wei Guogong had left the house before she came, but she didn't let Ji Nanrou out when she left. Ji Nanrou still can't take a step out of the courtyard where he lives.

Mei Xiaoren and Ji Nanrou sat opposite each other at the stone table in the courtyard. When she saw that Ji Nanrou's eyes were bloodshot, she knew that this young lady should not have slept all night.

"Miss Ji, I have already found someone to handle the things you explained, this is the cloak that the Prime Minister lent to the girl, the Prime Minister thinks she is you, then you will send someone to return it." Mei Xiaoren picked up the burden and put it on the table.

Ji Nanrou said happily: "Thank you." ”

Ji Nanrou stretched out her hand to take it, but Mei Xiaoren slapped it on the burden and didn't let it take it.

Ji Nanrou didn't understand, "What's wrong?" ”

"Miss Ji, who was dancing last night, you know, I know, as long as Miss Ji can think about me, then I should keep this secret for Miss Ji." Mei Xiaoren looked at Ji Nanrou and said that he was very serious.

Ji Nanrou felt that this was familiar, and it was similar to what she had said before. She understood what Mei Xiaoren meant, lowered her eyes and asked, "Does Mei Fucheng think that I have caused you too much trouble?" ”

"It's not a problem, but the risk is there." Mei Xiaoren said again, "Miss Ji, you told me that there are rumors outside, since this is the case, then what I should do is to avoid the limelight, instead of looking for the Prime Minister's Mansion in three days." ”

"I know, don't worry, I won't trouble you again in the future." Ji Nanrou said gloomily.

Mei Xiaoren let go of his hand and let him take the burden, and asked, "I heard that Lord Guogong already knows ......?"

"My brother gave the cloak back to my father, and my father was furious because of it, but I believe that my brother didn't mean it, because he didn't know that I made two cloak pieces." Ji Nanrou stared at her eyes and sighed, "I guess, he just wanted to give it back to me, and he was afraid of disappointing me, so he gave it to my father instead, I don't blame him, I only blame the creation of people." ”

Mei Xiaoren sighed in his heart, and what he was obsessed with was probably what Ji Nanrou looked like now.

She took out a handkerchief and rubbed her plugged nose, and got up to say goodbye to Ji Nanrou.

Prime Minister's Office.

The morning light reflected the Danqing scroll by the window of the study, and the painting had been hanging here since Gu Chuyu brought it back to Beijing, but it was rarely unfolded.

When he woke up this morning, the first thing he did was to go to the study, untie the ties, put down the scroll, and see the face he hadn't seen last night.

I have to say that Yuwang's painting is impeccable, her eyebrows and eyes are outlined beautifully and expressively, and every stroke of the painting seems to have been carefully thought out and painted in detail, which shows that Yuwang has spent a lot of effort in order to paint this painting.

Xingyun called outside: "Master, someone has sent a letter. ”

"What letter?"

"Unbeknownst to the minion, the man delivered the letter to the guard and left, without a word on the envelope."

Gu Chuyu finished the painting, opened the door of the study, and took the letter handed by Xingyun and looked at it.

There was no word on the envelope, but the letter inside was full of writing.

Gu Chuyu read all of them word for word, and gradually locked his eyebrows, and he immediately ordered: "Go and check the origin of this letter, be sure to find out who wrote it, and send someone to Meifu to spread the word and tell Gongzi that in two hours, I will wait for her in the Zhulin Tea Shop." ”
