In the past few days, Hua Yue has lived in the palace, Ruyi has not seen him for several days, every time Ruyi wants to visit the palace, but he will be stopped by Zijin: "Ruyi girl, the master has instructed, if there is no important matter, it is better not to enter the palace." ”

"Hua Yue, what the hell is he doing in the palace? didn't let me see him, could it be that he was hiding in the golden house in the palace? Ruyi was a little angry, this was inexplicable, and she didn't tell her what the reason was, so she just waited, who could stand it?

"Ruyi girl, don't think about it too much, the master only has you in his heart, how dare you look at other women again? The master just entered the palace for some things, and he will come back in a few days. ”

Ruyi has heard this explanation 800 times, and her ears are calloused.

Since the hard ones won't work, let's get some soft ones.

Ruyi immediately changed his posture, took Zijin's hand, shook it back and forth, and his voice became a lot louder: "Zijin, you are the best, what is Hua Yue busy with in the palace, just tell me, I am also worried about him, I promise that after listening, I will wait for him at home, okay?" ”

Zijin's face was a little embarrassed, Ruyi's appearance may be effective for men, but for women, she seems to have used the wrong trick.

"Ruyi girl, don't embarrass me, I am also acting on orders."

Okay, sure enough, there are subordinates who have what kind of master, Ruyi's face was on the side, and he let go of Zijin's hand, and then sat on the stool angrily, sulking alone: "Forget it, forget it, men are like this, once they get married, they will never cherish it anymore, they always have their own little secrets, since he doesn't say it, I don't rarely inquire about it." ”

Zijin lowered his head, Hua Yue fought with that mysterious person that night, and was accidentally injured, Hua Yue didn't want Ruyi to see and worry, but when it came to Ruyi's mouth, it became uncherished.

Alas, the good intentions of the master.

Zijin was thinking about it, and Ruyi slapped the table and stood up: "If you don't let me go to see it, then I'll go shopping, spend all his money, and see if he comes back." ”

Shopping for things can indeed vent your depressed mood, but just after buying rouge gouache, Ruyi has already thrown Huayue's affairs out of the clouds.

Zijin followed behind Ruyi, holding a bunch of things, seeing that the box was on top of his head, but Ruyi, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, if Zijin hadn't stopped in time, I'm afraid Ruyi would have been buried by the mountain-like object behind him.

"Ruyi girl." Zijin thought if Ruyi saw something interesting again, and couldn't walk, but following her line of sight, this was like a shop that sold all kinds of musical instruments, Ruyi didn't know any musical instruments, why did she suddenly become interested in this?

It turns out that Ruyi is not looking at the instrument, but the person who buys it.

There was only a seventeen-year-old boy in the store, dressed in black, who looked like a martial arts practitioner from the back, holding a guqin, as if he was negotiating the price with the boss.

The more Ruyi looked at this back, the more familiar she felt, she walked behind him, and heard a familiar voice, Ruyi was startled, and her hand had already patted the young man's shoulder, the young man turned around, frowning and drinking cold eyebrows and eyes gradually stretched out at the moment he saw Ruyi.

"It's really you!" Ruyi couldn't help but exclaim, this feeling of meeting an acquaintance again is good.

The young man's expression didn't change as much as Ruyi, he still looked indifferent: "It's you, Su Ruyi." ”

"Mu Tong, why did you come to the capital? Are you here to find a friend? ”

Mu Tong shook his head, half of his face covered by the water pattern mask made Ruyi unable to see through what kind of expression he was now, judging from the guqin he was hugging tightly, he was here to buy the qin.

The boss is also an impatient person, he stared at Mu Tong impatiently and said: "It's just twenty taels, it can't be lower, you can buy it if you like, if you don't sell it, I want to sell it to others." ”

It turned out that the price was not negotiable.

Ruyi glanced down, and saw that the silver in Mu Tong's hand was only five taels, where is the musical instrument store with five taels?

Mu Tong really liked this guqin, Ruyi took out twenty taels of silver ingots from his sleeve and put it on the table: "Boss, I bought this qin, wrap it up for me." ”

Mu Tong looked at Ruyi a little stunned, and her tone was a little slurred, obviously he took a fancy to it first, how did it become hers......

"Su Ruyi, this piano ...... I fell in love with this piano first, you can't buy it. ”

The speed of the boss is very fast, and after a while, he has already wrapped the piano and handed it to Ruyi's hand, Ruyi looked at Mu Tong's embarrassed look, couldn't help but smile, and handed the piano over: "Teasing you, you see that you are really serious, this piano should be regarded as me to repay you for saving your life last time." ”

Mu Tong was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand to take it, but the young man's stubbornness still did not change at all: "I will return it to you as soon as possible." ”

"No, I gave it to you." Ruyi glanced at it just now, and inadvertently saw that the petals engraved on the guqin were pear blossom petals, and it happened that what she liked was also pear blossoms, so she said tentatively: "Mu Tong, did you buy this piano and play it yourself?" ”

Mu Tong walked out of the musical instrument shop with Ruyi and shook his head: "No, tomorrow is Master's birthday, Master likes guqin, so I thought about giving this guqin as a birthday gift." ”

"Oh" Ruyi nodded, but he didn't expect this cold-looking guy to be very filial.

"Then do you know how to play the guqin?"

Mu Tong tightened the strap of the guqin and nodded: "I can only play one song, and I don't play it very well." ”

Ruyi suddenly became interested, so he grabbed Mu Tong's sleeve and said, "Then can you play it for me?" ”

Ruyi suddenly became so enthusiastic, Mu Tong didn't react for a while, and suddenly Zijin behind him spoke: "Ruyi girl, it's not early, let's hurry back to the villa." ”

Ruyi glanced at the big sun hanging in the sky, pouted and said: "It's obviously noon, why is it not early, I just want to say a few words to my friend, why can't it?" ”

Zijin glanced at Mu Tong, she always felt that this young man was not as simple as he seemed.

But Ruyi said so, and she couldn't refute it, so she had to follow them back to the villa.

Ruyi took Mu Tong to sit under the pavilion, Mu Tong has never entered such a big mansion except for entering the Xiaoyao faction, no, this villa seems to be much more magnificent than the Xiaoyao faction.

"So you live here, it's pretty quiet." Mu Tong looked around left and right, the style was magnificent, and there were many maidservants, but it was just unspeakably deserted.

Ruyi held his cheek with one hand and hummed a few words: "Quiet, I've been suffocating like a madman here these days." ”

"What about that person?" Mu Tong couldn't remember the name of the man in white that day for a while, so he called it casually.

"That person? Do you mean Huayue? He left me and went into the palace, and he didn't tell me what he was doing in the palace, leaving me alone here to be bored. Ruyi couldn't help complaining, but Mu Tong didn't care much, he lowered his head and concentrated on taking out the guqin, perhaps because of years of sword practice, his hands were very rough, covered with heavy calluses and even indelible scars.

"I'll only play this one, so you can make do with it."

Mu Tong stroked the strings with both hands, and a melodious song rose.

This sound is very sad, it is the kind of pain that touches people's hearts, Ruyi began to hold her head and just listen to it casually, but the more she heard it at the end, her mood slowly became heavy.

There seemed to be a picture in the trance in front of her, under the pear blossom tree, a man in black turned his back to her and stroked the qin, the sound of the piano was hurting, she subconsciously wanted to escape, but after all, she did not escape from the deep gaze he turned around.

"Hitomi, I miss you so much."

"Stunned!"

The body of the piano stopped abruptly, and the hallucinations that appeared in front of Ruyi's eyes disappeared, she thought that the strings were broken, but she suddenly looked up, but found that Hua Yue was standing in front of her at some point, and it was his hand that caressed the strings, so that Mu Tong had no way to play anymore.

Mu Tong's deep eyes looked at Hua Yue, unable to withstand the slightest wave, as if he had known that he would come.

"Hua Yue, why are you back?" Ruyi got up, but her consciousness was still a little trance, her body trembled, if Hua Yue hadn't grabbed her in time, she would probably have fallen to the ground.

"Ruyi, Ruyi, what's wrong with you?"

Ruyi shook her head, and the sight in front of her suddenly became much clearer, she subconsciously didn't want Hua Yue to worry, so she casually made up an excuse: "I guess I was shopping for too long just now, and I was a little tired, so I won't get in the way." ”

Hua Yue's eyes froze, and her eyes fell on Mu Tong, who got up to tidy up the guqin.

"By the way, Hua Yue, do you remember Mu Tong? Ruyi wanted to introduce Hua Yue, but heard Hua Yue's extremely cold voice reply: "Remember, of course I remember him, I'm afraid he won't remember me." ”

Mu Tong unhurriedly rewrapped the guqin, then put it behind his back, without looking at Hua Yue, and walked in front of Ruyi: "I still have something to do, I have to go back, let's see you another day, thank you for the qin, the piano is very good." ”

Ruyi opened his mouth slightly, and before he could speak, the young man had already walked out of the gate of the villa.

Ruyi is also strange Mu Tong's attitude, obviously it was fine just now, why did Hua Yue become like this as soon as she came.

"How did you meet him?"

Ruyi said "ah", and then said: "When I was shopping, I saw him buy a piano in a musical instrument store, and the money was not enough, so I bought it for him, and he said that tomorrow was his master's birthday, and he wanted this piano as a birthday gift." ”

Hua Yue lowered her eyes, and her gaze gradually became deeper: "In the future, you should try not to meet again." ”

Ruyi was stunned and blurted out directly: "Why?" He is also my savior. ”
