Chapter Thirty-Nine: Dreaming of the Sun

The sun sets, the twilight is red, and the fragrant breeze is Luoqi. Everywhere in the palace, the lights have already been put on.

After Zhaoyun finished dinner, he watched the sunset on the horizon like a thick flame burning into the sky, and admired the shadow of the flowers in the cold cage.

With Mingcui and Fudong, they walked slowly along the path paved with fine stones to eat. Before I knew it, I had arrived at the shore of Qinshui Lake, which was full of lotus flowers.

A few people walked through the small inn and rested in the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

This small pavilion stands in the middle of Qinhu Lake, surrounded by lotus leaves, and connected to the lake with a small stack. The eaves of the pavilion fly to the octagonal, and there is a thin copper bell hanging at the bottom, which is a little more elegant and funny.

Zhaoyun sat leaning against the red lacquer pillar, looking at the green lotus and red lotus, and rolled and closed at will in the distance. Listening to the thin bells at the corner of the eaves swaying in the breeze, making a tinkling sound, a heart also regained its long-lost calm.

In an instant, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a light boat moored on the edge of the lake in the distance.

"You rest in this pavilion, and I'll go boating in the lake." With a smile in his eyebrows, Zhaoyun pointed to the distance.

After saying that, he left the two in the pavilion, walked through the wooden stack, and walked along the embankment to the place where the boat was moored.

Untying the hemp rope tied to the willow tree, Zhaoyun carefully got into the wooden boat, holding the wooden oars hanging on both sides, and paddled towards the golden lake in the distance.

The ripples spread out in circles, and Zhaoyun gently shook the wooden oar, and before he knew it, he had already penetrated into the depths of the lotus.

The light boat rowed by, and there were red buildings and green covers in front and back with the boat, and a few snow-white herons flew away. The breeze came slowly, and the green lotus leaves blew cool, which also made the lotus sway.

Zhaoyun picked a branch of red face and green waist, sniffed lightly with eyelashes, and the fragrance that entered his nose was full of fragrance. She hung the oars on the sides of the boat again, and slowly lay down on the bent tree as a pillow.

Under the shadow of the sky and clouds, looking at the blue sky on his face, Zhaoyun felt that he was like a light boat rippling on the lake, becoming extremely quiet and quiet.

As everyone knows, on the Hongqiao erected in the distance, a thin figure suddenly stopped and stared from afar.

Mu Xi resigned from the palace and discussed with Luo Ye about the related matters of peace, crossed Qinhu Lake from Qianqing Palace, and wanted to return to the post station.

Passing by the Hongqiao, I inadvertently glimpsed the plain white shadow embedded in the green and red that stretched for several miles.

He stood for a long time, as if there was only a touch of plain white left in this vast world.

In the Danxia, a bright moon quietly rose, and Huaxing also emerged from the clouds.

In the Furong pool, Zhaoyun thought about all the things he had experienced in these days, and he couldn't tell for a while, which one was in the dream, the past life and the present life......

After being greedy for a long time, Zhaoyun took the boat lightly, returned to the pavilion in the middle of the lake, called the two Mingcui, who were talking happily, and slowly returned to the palace.

After washing up, Zhaoyun put on a plain white coat, read miscellaneous notes under the candlelight for a while, and went to bed.

She was sleeping in a daze, when she suddenly heard a thin rustling sound coming from her room, and she woke up suddenly.

The silk gauze tent hanging around the bed reflects a hazy figure. Zhaoyun suddenly fell asleep, and gently took out the dagger hidden under the jade pillow.

"Come out when you wake up." A magnetic voice came through the gauze tent.

The deep male voice like a golden stone is particularly abrupt in the quiet night.

Zhaoyun hid the dagger in his sleeve and casually draped it in a blue coat decorated with flowers. When I opened the hanging blue gauze tent, I saw that the windows in the house were wide open.

In the moonlight, I saw Su Zidui lazily wrapping her arms around her chest, casually leaning on the edge of the coffee table. Half hidden in the dark, half reflected in the moonlight, faintly unreal.

She couldn't see his whole picture, only his resolute silhouette and his lacquer-like eyes.

Today is Biluo's vigil, Zhaoyun turned his head and looked at the outer cabinet not far away through the folding silk screen.

"Don't worry, she will wake up after tonight with some drugs."

Hearing Su Zidui's words, Zhaoyun looked at him in surprise. Sure enough, after a while, I heard the faint snoring sound of Biluo, which came intermittently.

"Late at night, what's the matter?" Zhaoyun walked to the window and closed the plastered lattice.

The room went dark in an instant. She blew the fire fold and lit it, and when the candle flame went out, she lit the white candle on the coffee table.

"What do you say?" Mu Xi walked to the beauty and sat down, "It's not to repay your kindness." ”

For some reason, Zhao Yun actually heard some gnashing of teeth from his words.

Only then did she see that he was wearing a crow-blue night robe again, and he still had a casual expression on his face.

"And how do you repay?" Zhaoyun also leaned on the coffee table he was leaning on, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"How do you want me to repay?" Su Zidui stared at the jade face swaying by the candlelight, and asked rhetorically.

"I did as I had said. I'll help you get out of those letters, and you'll help me and my relatives to escape. ”

When Su Ziwan heard this, she sneered, took out a small square piece wrapped in paper from the placket of her clothes, and slapped it on the coffee table next to her.

Puzzled, Zhaoyun reached out and took it and opened the small square piece of paper that still had residual warmth, and saw that there was a small stall of white powder on the wrinkled paper.

"What is this?" Zhaoyun shifted his gaze to his cold eyes.

"It's the medicine that will help you escape." Su Zidui's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the flickering candlelight on the side.

"This whisk will have no breath at all, like a corpse. And the user will also have no four senses, and the perception of the outside world will be lost. ”

Hearing his words, Zhaoyun fell into deep thought. In a moment, a deep voice came again.

"It's your business to use or not to use. If you decide to take it, prick the Baihui acupoint with a needle to relieve the medicinal properties. ”

Zhaoyun lowered his eyelashes, refolded the disassembled paper into the original square pieces along the folds, and stuffed them into the sachet on his waist.

"I have one more thing to ask for." Zhaoyun looked up and looked at the man who was lazily leaning on the beauty floor.

Seeing him frown, she walked over to the dowry and pulled out a carved lacquered wooden box. With a click, the lock opened, and a rolled-up gift slip was taken out of it.

"I don't know what to do with these yellow and white things. I would like you to ask you to send someone to pretend to be a robber and intercept these items from the gift list. Zhaoyun walked over and handed him the gift slip.

"Why should I help you?" Su Ziwan glanced at her twice, raised her eyebrows, and looked at her coldly.

"After the deed is completed, I will pay you 30%."

Seeing that he didn't respond, Zhaoyun frowned slightly and said, "Forty percent? ”

Su Zidui still didn't answer, just looked straight at her. Between the narrow eyes, there is some light of unknown meaning.

"Fifty percent, no more!" Seeing that he hadn't answered, Zhaoyun subconsciously bit his lower lip, and suddenly felt a little anxious in his heart.

Secretly slandered to himself: This person is really greedy, fifty percent is not satisfied, and he can be regarded as having saved him.

However, he still had to have the posture of asking for someone, and hurriedly looked at him with his hands folded.

Su Zidui saw her earnest look, and a little moved in her heart. But he still forced himself to suppress it, and with an expressionless face, he took out a folded plain note from the placket and handed it to her.

What is it? Zhaoyun took a look and was instantly stunned.

I saw that it was written in black and white: After helping her escape, she needs to stay with him and be a maid for two years, and then she can leave.

"What do you mean?" Zhaoyun frowned, and the anger that had been accumulated in his chest for a long time surged.

Seeing her eyes full of anger, Su Zidui smiled coldly: "It's literal." I don't need your possessions, I just need you to be by my side for two years......"

As soon as she finished speaking, a pair of ice eyes stared at her heavily, "You think it for yourself." You know, I know who you care about and who you hate. ”

"You threaten me?" Zhao Yun held back his anger and clenched his five fingers. The pain of her fingertips piercing into her palm calmed her down instantly.

"It's too ugly to say that a threat is a deal." Su Ziwei looked at her clenched right hand and tapped the armrest with her fingertips.

Zhaoyun forced himself to calm down, thought for a moment, and replied, "I can agree to your request." ”

When he looked up, his eyes instantly glowed, "But you have to agree to my three requests first." ”

When Su Ziwan heard this, she raised her eyebrows and looked at the sly woman on the side.

"First, you need to do a good job of what I just told you, and you must send that batch of belongings safely to a place to be placed."

"Second, you also need to place the maid Mingcui next to me safely, and don't embarrass her."

"Third, for a period of two years. When the two years are up, they have to let me go. What do you think? ”

"You really won't let yourself suffer a little loss!" The corners of Su Zidu's mouth turned up slightly, and she nodded slightly.

After signing the painting, Su Zidui jumped out of the window and disappeared into the boundless dark night.

Zhaoyun closed the window and dropped the wooden bolt. Turning his head, he saw the plain paper with the vermilion handprint on the coffee table.

Why did he want to be by his side for two years?

She pondered for a moment, then gently placed it in the wooden box and put it away, and returned to the bed.

tossed and turned for half a night before falling asleep.

In the void, she dreamed that she was floating on the boundless river for a long, long time in a flat boat. All around was a white mist, blocking the view ahead.

Suddenly, the water around him became more and more turbulent, and the boat beneath him whirled uncontrollably.

She crouched down, clutching the edge of the boat. Suddenly, the boat under him instantly flew down with the current.

only to know that there was already a boundless abyss under him......
