Chapter 255: The Loquat Tree Watered by the River Styx (Part II)

It seems that the two of them have come to an agreement in this way. On the first and fifteenth day of each month, the two of them met in the Hibiscus Pool to talk about what they had experienced in the past half a month.

Later, Luo Yan will also prepare some fruits and even fine wines. However, the most common ones are small orange-yellow fruits called loquats. After peeling and biting, the flesh is sweet, but unfortunately the season for being able to eat it is not long.

She even helped Zhou Qi summarize a list of the users of the hot spring pool, which allowed him to wander around the world from here on weekdays.

Except for the occasional person who went to Ji Kang to complain during the day, Zhou Qi felt that everything was fine. And the two of them couldn't meet for a day and a night, except for the occasional look at the angry images left by each other, he felt that everything was fine.

So he was able to go to many, many places by night, and then he would tell her about many, many places, such as the Buzhou Mountain, which had been half dumped, Kunlun, which was towering among the clouds, and the rich and wide Dongting.

Luo Yan will also tell him a lot, such as what interesting things are happening in the palace, or which concubine is doing something today. But at the end of the topic, it always falls on one person.

The monarch of Dongqing, Ji Zhe.

"Concubine Li's body has just passed three months, and her belly hasn't grown yet, so she dares to run to find trouble with Concubine Rong." Luo Yan and Zhou Qi sat side by side on the edge of the pool, stepping on the water of the pool with a pair of smooth feet, "Who would have thought that Concubine Rong raised a kitten and almost scratched herself." She went to someone else's palace to provoke herself, and when she failed, she went to the emperor to complain. What's even more infuriating is that Ji Zhe actually said that my harem was mismanaged and I was the mother of the country. ”

She kicked very hard, making a high splash, "Where do I care about the harem?" Didn't he arrange it for Concubine Li? ”

Zhou Qi knew who she was talking about. Isn't that the true love of Emperor Dongqing? When she found out that she was pregnant, she was immediately promoted to a concubine, and if she gave birth to a prince, she didn't know what kind of reward she would get.

He deliberately slipped away to see this woman who was loved by thousands of people, and to be honest, he felt that person was really not as good-looking as Luo Yanchang.

"I asked Ji Zhe to take a leave of absence, but he was not happy. What's going on? If they don't share the same bed before they die, do they want to be buried together after death? ”

"Since you have lived for so many years against the fate of Fengyi, if he divorces you and abolishes you now, isn't that saying that the decision of the previous emperor was ridiculous?"

Luo Yan snorted coldly, "Naturally, he can't do such a thing." ”

"You also know that he won't really divorce you, that's why you dare to talk back like that." Zhou Qi looked at the woman, "Actually, I think you should like him." ”

"How is that possible?!" Luo Yan acted as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world, "Before he ascended the throne, I was trapped in this palace for fifteen years; He trapped me for another three years after he succeeded to the throne. How could I possibly fall in love with someone who has only seen a handful of people?! ”

"I went back and asked, when people have a favorite object, they can't help but talk about him, whether it's good or bad." Zhou Qi took himself as an example, "I also have an older brother, and I basically don't see him, but I love him very much." ”

To be precise, he had never met Ji Kang. He was originally a personality that was conceived after Ji Kang ascended to the throne of the Ghost Emperor, and the other party couldn't support heavy things. So he was a person in a high position from the beginning of his consciousness. This made Zhou Qi feel a little similar to Luo Yan. ζ‰‹ζœΊη«― δΈ€η§’θ¨˜δ½γ€Žβ†’m.\B\iq\u\g\\o\m』 provides you with wonderful \ novel reading.

Occupying a high position does not depend on one's own efforts. I've been bound since birth, and I want to leave but I can't.

"You're different, after all, you're a blood relation." Luo Yan had already gotten up from the ground, "Don't say anything, I have to go." ”

Before she had taken two steps, she suddenly stopped and looked back at Zhou Qi's somewhat puzzled eyes, "If one day, I beg you to take me away, will you agree?" ”

Zhou Qi looked at her and shook his head: The underground is not suitable for the survival of living people in the world.

Luo Yan pulled out a particularly ugly smile that he had never seen before, and walked out.

Loquat has been on the market for a short time, and after it, Luo Yan also brought lychees and lotus seeds, but it is obvious that she still likes loquat.

"Why do you like loquat so much?" After another chatter, Zhou Qi raised the question in his heart, obviously lychees taste sweeter.

"What I like is the lute."

The slender finger plucks the fruit in the plate, as if plucking on the strings.

The pipa, a musical instrument from the border pass, is not as heavy as the qin, not as subtle and elegant as the zheng, it is like an endless blue sky, open and atmospheric, can accommodate the solemn and tragic, and can accommodate the graceful and melodious.

"It's a pity that the people in the palace think that the pipa is not as good as the qin and the zheng, it is the musical instrument of the Hu girl." Luo Yan's little face raised to meet the moonlight, "So I long for the day when I can play a pipa song at the border outside the Saiwai Gate, watching the desert face the sunset." ”

"Then you might consider starting to learn." Zhou Qi looked at her with moonlight in his eyes, "When you learn, I'll take you out once." ”

"Really?" Luo Yan turned back in surprise, "You said before that you wouldn't take me away." ”

"Well, but it should still be okay to take you out for a spin." Zhou Qi thought that it might be a bit difficult to go back and forth from the Dongqing Palace to the desert to the west overnight, but he could consider trying it first.

"We're done!" Luo Yan stretched out her right hand at him, and seeing that the other party was very puzzled, she took the initiative to grab his hand, wrapped her little fingers, and touched her thumbs, "This is an agreement, and you can't go back." ”

"I won't regret it."

However, for the next month, Zhou Qi did not see Luo Yan. It was another fifteen-moon full moon night, and he soaked his feet in the pool water, looking at the bright moon that had risen high, and finally stood up from the pool water.

The spirit spoke of the moist feet drying, and the black satin boots tapped on the stone surface, leaving the palace in the hibiscus pool.

No longer directly crossing the palace wall as before, Zhou Qi shuttled through the shadows under the corner, but found that there were fewer people patrolling the palace today than in the past.

Opening the senses, there is a palace full of people. His figure melted into the darkness and approached that side.

With the gradual increase in the number of people, Zhou Qi reacted: It turns out that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival in the world.

This is also the day of the palace feast.

Standing in the corner, Zhou Qi saw Luo Yan for the first time in addition to the white robe. The phoenix bird embroidered with gold thread on the red palace robe and the crown on the head reflect each other under the candlelight. The already fair skin is lined with flowers on the forehead, and it is as warm as white jade.

She sat upright on the high seat, but did not talk to the yellow-robed man beside her, except for a glass of wine that she shook gently and occasionally took a sip.
